"Talking nonsense again!"
Nan Xiao suppressed the urge to flick her forehead and turned his face away.
Ming Zi Cheng smiled indifferently and said, "That's right, who am I! I'm Lan Yu Xi's junior!"
Nan Xiao kicked him. He couldn't bear to deal with his wife, but he wouldn't go easy on this cheap junior!
"You have your baby, what's it got to do with my wife! If you can't speak properly, don't speak!"
Ming Zi Cheng, who was showing off, didn't guard against it and took a solid kick.
"Senior Sister, he's bullying me," Ming Zi Cheng complained pitifully to Lan Yu Xi.
Lan Yu Xi glanced at him sideways, "You deserve it!"
"Senior Sister, you don't love me anymore," Ming Zi Cheng was even more aggrieved.
Yan Chu Ting couldn't help but chuckle. It was rare for Ming Zi Cheng to act spoiled, even with his parents he wouldn't do this.
Lan Yu Xi smiled and hit Ming Zi Cheng, "Alright, you're old enough to stop acting spoiled. Don't you have a meeting this afternoon? Go quickly, I'll chat with Chu Ting."
Ming Zi Cheng smiled. The hit from his senior sister didn't hurt at all.
"Chu Ting, take Senior Sister to my office. We have food and drinks there. If you're tired, you can both lie down for a bit."
"Mm," Yan Chu Ting replied with a smile.
Before leaving, Nan Xiao glanced at his office. It seemed he would have to do as Ming Zi Cheng did, set up a good lounge and prepare some of his wife's favorite snacks, so that his wife wouldn't go hungry next time she visited.
In a short while, Lan Yu Xi followed Yan Chu Ting to Ming Zi Cheng's office. Lan Yu Xi had been to Ming Zi Cheng's office before, but this time she visited again, she was almost shocked speechless.
Flowers, stuffed animals, various fruits and pastries, and a small pink blanket on the sofa... Was this an office or a boudoir?
Yan Chu Ting smiled sheepishly, "Ming Zi Cheng said I have to spend at least eight hours in the office every day, so he made it like this to make me and the baby more comfortable."
Lan Yu Xi nodded with a smile, "Not bad, he's a good man who knows how to cherish his wife."
Yan Chu Ting said with a smile, "I have you to thank for this. If you hadn't helped me, who knows who this good man would have ended up with!"
"He wouldn't have ended up with anyone else, because what belongs to you is yours, and no one can take it away."
"That's true."
The two of them ate, drank, and chatted for over two hours until Ming Zi Cheng and Nan Xiao returned, at which point they stopped gossiping.
"Senior Sister, shall we have dinner together tonight?" Ming Zi Cheng suggested.
Lan Yu Xi remembered Nan Xiao's wronged expression and smiled, shaking her head, "We have something to do today, maybe another day."
"Alright." Ming Zi Cheng glanced at the time, "If you two have something to do, you can go first. There's nothing much happening here."
Seeing that Ming Zi Cheng had let them go, Nan Xiao grabbed Lan Yu Xi and walked out. The speed was so fast that he was clearly afraid Ming Zi Cheng would change his mind.
Ming Zi Cheng smiled helplessly and helped Yan Chu Ting to the lounge.
Seeing that no one was following behind, Nan Xiao slowed down.
Lan Yu Xi asked with a smile, "What are you running for? Afraid Er Wan will go back on his word? He's not that kind of person."
Nan Xiao scoffed, "He is that kind of person! For Yan Chu Ting, he'd do anything now. He's letting us go only because you said you had something to do. If it were me, he'd find all sorts of excuses to keep me here, and then he'd run away with Yan Chu Ting."
Lan Yu Xi just smiled and said nothing. Let him say whatever he wanted, it was like playing with a child.
The two of them quickly got into the car. Nan Xiao held her hand tightly and said to Nan Er, "Go to Guanghua Road."
Nan Er responded and started the engine.
On the road, Ying, sitting in the passenger seat, turned to Lan Yu Xi and said, "Xi Zhu, the person you asked me to investigate is named Yin Lu. She graduated from Dalton North University with a degree in Business Management, worked at Norcas for three years, and returned to China last year to co-open a private kitchen with a friend."
Lan Yu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, "She also worked at Norcas?"
Ying picked up the tablet and looked, "Coincidentally, the hotel she worked at is under the Lan Group."
"I knew it, the way she looked at me was not right. She should recognize me." Lan Yu Xi took the tablet and looked at it. Her background was clean, her family was reputable...
Just as Lan Yu Xi was about to continue reading, the tablet was taken away by a large hand.
"Someone you've only met once, do you have to be so serious?" Nan Xiao took the tablet and directly pressed the power button to turn it off.
Lan Yu Xi pouted and rested her head on his shoulder, "I've noticed you're getting more and more jealous."
"If I don't make my presence felt, you'll forget all about me."
Lan Yu Xi chuckled, "Aren't you afraid Nan Er and Ying will hear you?"
Nan Er smiled and shook his head, "I didn't hear anything."
Ying said seriously, "A clingy child gets fed."
Nan Xiao tapped Ying's head with the tablet, then threw the tablet back to him, "From now on, report less about these irrelevant people and matters to your master!"
Ying rubbed his head. He wanted to hit back, but he didn't seem strong enough to beat this man. Forget it, it was giving Xi Zhu some face.
The car soon arrived at Guanghua Road. When Lan Yu Xi saw the familiar scenery, her dark, bright eyes instantly lit up.
Seeing this, Nan Xiao slightly curled his lips, "Do you want to go down and take a look?"
"Yes!"
Lan Yu Xi eagerly pushed open the car door and got out. Jinghua School. She and Nan Xiao had attended elementary and middle school here. This place held too many memories for them.
"Let's go in for a walk, and then go to the noodle shop we always used to go to for a bowl of noodles."
Lan Yu Xi's eyes curved as she looked at him, "That noodle shop is still there?"
"Yes, before you came back, I ate there quite often. The taste hasn't changed, it's just that the uncle and aunt's hair has turned a bit white."
Lan Yu Xi glanced at the street where the noodle shop was located, "We're both parents now, how could they not get old?"
Nan Xiao grinned and held her hand, standing outside the school gate. Without him saying anything, the wrought iron gate slowly opened.
Lan Yu Xi "Eh?" sound, "Why did the gatekeeper let us in so easily?"
"It's not a gatekeeper anymore, it's a security guard, and they recognize me."
As soon as Nan Xiao finished speaking, a security guard poked his head out of the window with a smile, "You're back again. And this is..."
Nan Xiao's lips curved slightly, "My wife."
"You finally found her back?" The security guard smiled at Lan Yu Xi, "This young lady is so beautiful! You must come to see her often."
Nan Xiao smiled and quickly walked in, pulling Lan Yu Xi, who looked suspicious, along.
"What's going on?" Lan Yu Xi stopped him, holding his hand.
"Just as he said, I come here to walk around when I have nothing else to do. Every corner here has your shadow, and you here are more vibrant and happier than you were in the old house."
