Shi Yi and Shi Xiao Hu respectfully watched Lu Shao depart.
And the Lu Hao Ran, whom they considered to be attending to important matters, was currently… at the villa entrance of Xia Han's home!
"Hurry down, I miss you!" Lu Hao Ran was gazing across at Xia Han from the window.
A sweet smile appeared on Xia Han's lips, "I know." With that, she drew the curtains and opened the door from the inside.
Upon reaching the living room, she encountered her mother, who was coming down to pour water.
Mom Xia immediately became alert, "Han Han, where are you going so late?"
Xia Han froze. How should she explain? Where was she going? An idea struck her!
"Mom, I ate a bit too much tonight and feel quite full. I'm going out for a walk, I'll be back soon!"
Then, without waiting for Mom Xia to respond, she headed towards the main door.
Leaving Mom Xia standing alone in the living room, holding a cup of water, gazing at her receding figure.
"Han Han didn't eat much tonight either, and she never eats a lot in the evenings..." Mom Xia thought to herself, and then a flash of inspiration struck her.
Hadn't she just seen a blush on her daughter's face, accompanied by a girlish shyness? Coupled with the fact that she seemed to be ending a phone call as she came downstairs.
This was bad! Her daughter was likely dating, she had to tell Old Xia quickly!
Mom Xia, holding her cup, dashed upstairs at a hundred-meter-sprint pace...
After Xia Han went downstairs, she lightly pressed a spot by the door, and the iron gate slowly opened.
As she stepped out, she was embraced tightly.
Xia Han's heart was instantly filled, and she reached out to embrace him back, her nose filling with his pleasant, masculine scent.
After a while, they separated, but Lu Hao Ran's hand remained on her waist.
"Lu Hao Ran, you..."
Lu Hao Ran placed a finger on her full, tender lips, gazing at her cherry-red lips, his eyes gradually deepening…
"Call me Hao, okay?" Lu Hao Ran lowered his head, their foreheads touching, their breaths mingling.
"Mmm… no…"
Lu Hao Ran's large hand on her waist gently squeezed, "Are you going to call me or not?"
Xia Han let out a soft cry and tried to wriggle away from his burning hand but couldn't move at all. Ever since he learned she was sensitive on her waist, he enjoyed pinching her whenever he pleased.
Feeling the threat of the hand on her waist, Xia Han had no choice but to obediently call out.
"Hao."
Lu Hao Ran smiled in satisfaction, "Good girl…"
With that, Lu Hao Ran lowered his head and kissed her, one hand on Xia Han's waist, the other cradling the back of her head, deepening the kiss…
Hiding behind the gate, Dad Xia and Mom Xia's eyes widened instantly. This…
This brat dared to kiss their daughter?!
Seeing this, Dad Xia rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush out to beat up that man. He was burning with anger, and no one could stop him!
"Wait! If you go out like this, Han Han will blame us." If their daughter was kissing her boyfriend and they were caught peeking, Xia Han would be furious if she found out.
With that one sentence, the fire in Dad Xia's heart immediately extinguished. But he was still resentful. Look, they hadn't separated yet!
The more Dad Xia looked, the angrier he became, wishing he could chop that man into pieces!
"Calm down, let's go back first and investigate the man's background."
Wait until they investigated the man's background?! Their daughter was so good, and now she was being plucked. Who knew what stage they would reach if they waited any longer? Men's mouths were all full of lies; none of them were good. Who could he be?
Just some stinking man!
If it weren't for the fear that his Han Han would resent her father, he would have grabbed a broom and beaten the man until he didn't recognize his own home!
He should have checked the almanac today. If he had kept Xia Han from going out, he wouldn't have believed Xia!
He hadn't expected that after staying in his study, his wife would come down to pour water, return, and tell him their daughter was dating a man downstairs!!
He had even asked her several times!
It seemed like he would have to set a rule from now on: she must be back before dark, and once she's back, she's not allowed to go out!
Dad Xia returned to the master bedroom, still grumbling.
"Alright, alright, actually, Han Han is not young anymore. It's time for her to date."
They had guarded against it day and night, fearing that Han Han was too young and would be charmed by men's sweet talk, which was why she hadn't dated until now.
Even with their constant vigilance, they couldn't monitor her all the time. She had lost her heart in high school, and seeing her heartbroken was more painful than having their hearts gouged out.
That's why he later enacted rules, never allowing Xia Han to stay out for too long.
Unexpectedly, after high school, Han Han never dated again, nor did she have any favorite men.
This made them both relieved and worried, fearing that she had locked up her heart after being hurt once, which was something they didn't want to see.
Fortunately, Han Han could still be moved. However, they had to be on guard again. What if she got hurt again…
Dad Xia also knew that Han Han eventually had to venture out and couldn't be confined here forever. But as parents, they couldn't completely let go of their worries!
"Let me think about it! During this period, Xia Han cannot go out!"
Poor Xia Han, after a brief meeting with her beloved, was now known by her parents and had her movements restricted.
…
Lu Hao Ran, after bidding farewell to Xia Han and returning to his car, did not leave in a hurry.
He gazed intently at the dark night outside the car window, lost in thought. He knew that You was about to take action tonight, and he had secretly sent him a pair of devices yesterday. This thing could turn the middle section of a conductor into an insulator.
It was enough for their group to get in.
To successfully enter the Yun family's old mansion, he still had to go to another place.
"Beep~"
The white gate slid open to both sides after the correct command was entered.
"Young Master Lu!"
Everyone who wasn't occupied with their tasks stood up and respectfully greeted Lu Hao Ran.
"Mmm, how is the preparation going? I want complete certainty!"
Lu Hao Ran walked to the third machine from the east. Under the light, his face was serious and solemn, with a hint of authority.
"Don't worry, Young Master Lu, there will be no mistakes!"
They had made thorough preparations and guaranteed that no trace would be left behind.
Lu Hao Ran nodded lightly, "Remember the time, wait for my notification, and invade immediately upon receiving the message!"
"Yes!"
Lu Hao Ran then walked to the fourth machine behind it. A large black screen was displayed, and the people below were sitting alert and waiting.
"One o'clock in the morning, open on time!"
"Yes!" the technician replied spiritedly.
Young Master Lu had instructed them earlier, so they already knew what to do! And they were confident in themselves!
Lu Hao Ran sat down on a nearby chair, picked up his phone, sent a message, and then closed his eyes to rest, actually organizing his thoughts.
If You succeeded today, he could bring the two people back before noon tomorrow. They had already notified Xuan, asking him to be prepared. If… then he would have to drop everything he was doing!
And here, the fourth machine could monitor the real-time situation in You's area, allowing him to react as quickly as possible.
After he gave the signal, the third machine would immediately invade the opponent's system and disable all alarms.
Yun Jian Zhong was indeed cautious, with even this setup involving different systems, operating independently and not interfering with each other.
The night gradually deepened…
