However, he was also very puzzled. Why was Le Xuan not close to his grandmother, yet he treated this woman Jian You differently? Was she really that special, or...
Xuan Mo Han no longer thought about it. After looking at the woman and child sitting in the back seat, he lowered his head and sent a message. He didn't know... what his intentions were...
Meanwhile, Shui Yuan, who was about to enter the building, felt his phone vibrate. He immediately picked it up and checked. With just one glance, he stopped and tapped on the message.
Message from the President: Investigate Jian You.
It was the same matter that Li An had discussed with him two days prior. It was originally a trivial matter, but after the announcement was issued, Jian You had also become a suspect.
So he took over immediately. Just as he was about to investigate further, he unexpectedly received the same message from the president, investigating the same person. This made him somewhat conflicted.
Should he directly inform the president of the current progress, or wait until he had investigated everything about Jian You before reporting it all?
However, Shui Yuan was also a decisive person. So, not long after, he took a step forward again, and at the same time, lowered his head and quickly typed a line of text on his phone.
After sending the message, his fingertips moved slightly, and the phone was pocketed. The next second, he strode towards the negative third floor. Since they were all investigating this Jian You, and Jian You was part of the screened group, he would start with her.
This probably started about four months ago. The president had given the order to search along the river in various cities. Anyone who had been rescued from the sea recently needed to be reported, and there would be a reward.
As soon as this message came out, their stationed point was packed with people, all coming to register.
However, some were faking it. After they were punished, the number of people coming gradually decreased, but they became much more reliable. This greatly reduced their workload.
It had been this long, and they still hadn't found anyone suitable. The longer it took, the fewer people came. Now, almost no one came per day. So when he investigated Jian You, he decided to look into it carefully.
When the message arrived, Xuan Mo Han was about to close his eyes and rest for a while. He had only slept when he was tired in the training room these past two days. At other times, he couldn't sleep. With the child by his side, his heart felt a little more settled.
As soon as he adjusted his sitting posture, his phone rang.
He leaned back in his seat, picked up his phone, and slightly narrowed his eyes when he saw it was a message from Shui Yuan. His pupils deepened, and his fingertips gently rubbed the phone, lost in thought.
However, upon closer inspection, his raised fingers were slightly stiff.
But after he finished reading the message, he was completely stunned. He didn't even know when he had sat up straight...
"Jian You is the granddaughter of a small village doctor in City A. It is said that they just recognized each other. She was... fished out of the river and taken back, and she was very close to City S. This completely matches the missing information of that person. I will investigate further."
Xuan Mo Han felt his heart pounding, his body trembling involuntarily...
In the beginning, he would watch the people who came to report, and he would confirm the information of the rescued individuals one by one. But he knew that none of them were her.
This one was the exception...
Jian You was someone he had been questioning even before he knew about this. She had always given him a unique feeling, belonging exclusively to... that person...
Xuan Mo Han suddenly looked up and glanced at Jian You in the back seat again. She was already asleep. A strand of hair fell on her neck, landing on her collarbone and forming a perfect curve. He paid no attention to it at all.
His eyes were only on her, and the blurred Lan Qianqian beside her, with comparison after comparison. The more he compared, the more shocked he became. It turned out... Jian You had many similarities with her, and he had actually overlooked them...
Perhaps, even he himself did not believe that Lan Qianqian would return to his side.
He watched for a long time. Jian You seemed to sense something, her eyelashes fluttering slightly as if she were about to open her eyes. Xuan Mo Han immediately shifted his gaze, but...
He could no longer hide the intense emotions within him. Every cell in his body seemed to become active at this moment, even... the scenery outside became much more beautiful...
When Jian You opened her eyes, she first looked at the man in front of her. But he showed no reaction, nor did he look at her. She then shifted her gaze, but...
"Where are we going?" This was not the way back to the Xuan family.
Xuan Mo Han's throat bobbed. He continued to look out the window, his voice choked and unable to speak: "To Jingling Garden."
Jingling Garden? It sounded like a cemetery name. Could it be the child's mother? But weren't they told that they hadn't found the person? Then who were they going to see?
The next moment, Xuan Mo Han answered her: "To see the child's... maternal grandmother."
When he went to the riverbank just now, he realized that he hadn't seen Tong Mu Qing since that day. He still had to... visit her on behalf of Qian Qian. But... would you be Qian Qian?
Meeting Xuan Mo Han's strange gaze, Jian You felt uneasy. His sudden intense and... affectionate look made her feel truly unaccustomed to it. Didn't he show her disdain before getting into the car? She still remembered that cold expression clearly.
Moreover, she hadn't expected him to answer. He wasn't the type... like that, and she didn't expect him to tell her such private matters.
Lan Han Yu's eyes flickered between Xuan Mo Han and Jian You. He always felt that their atmosphere was very subtle, exuding an indescribable harmony and closeness.
It was like... being with Mommy!
If you excluded Jian You's face...
Lan Han Yu's small hands gradually tightened. He couldn't help but start sizing up Jian You.
Jian You felt like she was sitting on pins and needles in this strange atmosphere. She finally endured until the car stopped, and she immediately scrambled out. Just as she was about to jump out of the car, she was grabbed by Xuan Mo Han.
He stared at Jian You's chest and said softly, "I heard you are here to recuperate. You should still pay attention..."
"..."
She was here to recuperate? She didn't know that.
Before Jian You could react, Xuan Mo Han had already walked around her. The bodyguard opened the car door, and he got out first, then extended his hand: "Come here."
Uh...
Jian You was truly speechless. Why was Xuan Mo Han even more unpredictable today than usual? One moment it was snowy, and the next it was sunny.
"What exactly do you want..."
Jian You angrily prepared to push away the hand, but unexpectedly, Xuan Mo Han easily bypassed it and gently pulled her slender arm. The next moment, Jian You fell into his embrace.
She stiffly hugged his neck, unable to regain her senses, until a large head leaned over...
She immediately gripped the clothes behind his neck tightly, and the clothes instantly deformed under her hands. At the same time, she tilted her head back: "Xuan Mo Han..."
"Yes, I'm here."
