Lan Yu Xi patted her hand in comfort, "Sister-in-law, don't say that. You've already helped us a lot."
Wen Sha blinked her large, azure eyes, "Are you serious?"
"Of course, it's the truth. You've set us in the right direction and saved us a lot of time."
"That's good, I was just afraid I wouldn't be able to help you."
Lan Yu Xi smiled, "Sister-in-law, you came in such a hurry, you probably didn't bring all your and the child's things, did you? Later, the two of us will take the two children shopping."
Wen Sha smiled and shook her head, "Yu Fan and Chu Ting took us out yesterday, and everything has been bought. You must be tired, go rest."
"Oh, Chu Ting is here too!"
"Yes, the young lady is quite nice. She said she's second brother's subordinate, but I can't help but feel their relationship is unusual?"
Lan Yu Xi pursed her lips and smiled, "It used to be Chu Ting chasing Er Wan, but now it might be Er Wan chasing Chu Ting."
"That sounds fun!"
"It is quite fun. If you live in the capital often, you'll see plenty of excitement. " Lan Yu Xi rubbed her face, "Since my third sister-in-law and Chu Ting have arranged everything, I'll go see Wan Qi first. She's been vomiting quite badly these past few days."
Wen Sha smiled and said, "Wan Qi and Joyce went to the hospital for a check-up and won't be back until noon. Wan Qi asked me to tell you to rest first when you get back, and she'll come over for lunch at noon."
Lan Yu Xi frowned slightly, "Is she not feeling well?"
"No, she actually just wanted you to get some rest, so she chose to go to the hospital on the day you returned."
Lan Yu Xi raised an eyebrow slightly, "This girl really cares about me."
Nan Xiao smiled, "Don't let Wan Qi's kindness go to waste. Go upstairs and get some sleep."
"And you?"
"I have to go to the Presidential Palace."
Lan Yu Xi pouted, "Then I won't sleep either, I slept on the plane anyway."
Nan Xiao glanced at the time, "I won't go in the morning. I'll accompany you for a while, and then I'll go later."
"That's more like it!" Lan Yu Xi smiled and pushed him up the stairs, "You go to sleep first, I'll call Er Wan and then come up."
"Then hurry."
"Okay."
Lan Yu Xi watched him go upstairs before sitting down next to Wen Sha.
Wen Sha paused slightly, "Weren't you going to call second brother? Should I leave?"
"No need. I'm not calling Er Wan. I just said that so he'd go to sleep. He didn't blink on the way back, while I and the two children slept the whole way. Now that he's gone up, I have time to chat with you."
"Please don't chat with me. He might come down looking for you later. Although he's talking and smiling with us, I inexplicably feel scared whenever I see him."
Lan Yu Xi let out a chuckle, "Is he scarier than my senior brother?"
"I just inexplicably feel uneasy."
"There's no need to be uneasy. I gave him a sleeping potion when I pushed him upstairs. Once he gets upstairs, he'll definitely fall asleep."
Wen Sha looked at her with admiration, "How did you do that? I didn't even notice."
"If you had seen it, he would have noticed too." Lan Yu Xi smiled and took Wen Sha's hand, "Come, let's go to my study."
Lan Yu Xi led her into the study, opened a safe, and took out a box, handing it to Wen Sha.
Wen Sha quickly put her hands behind her back, "What's this for?"
"They're just some inexpensive trinkets. You're the young madam of the Hongmen, so you must have these. It's too late to get them custom-made, so use these for now. If you see anything you like later, I'll have someone make it for you."
Lan Yu Xi forcibly placed the jewelry box into Wen Sha's hands, then took out two property deeds and handed them over.
"These two houses, one is quite close to the school, and the other is a seaside villa. You can live in Hongmen if you want, or if not, you can live near the school. The seaside villa can be for you and your family to occasionally stay for a few days when you're on vacation with my master and his wife."
Wen Sha was flustered upon hearing this, "How can I accept this! I can't take so many valuable gifts from you! Hong Yi Nan would scold me to death if he knew."
Lan Yu Xi smiled, "If I give you something, he wouldn't dare to scold you, and even my master wouldn't say anything to me."
"But I still can't take them!" Wen Sha hastily placed the items on the table.
Lan Yu Xi feigned anger, "If you do this, you're treating me like an outsider! Actually, these things aren't really from me, they're advance dividends for my senior brother."
"Dividends?"
"Yes! Nan Xiao is planning to co-develop an island with my elder brother. They've already discussed giving my senior brother a portion of the shares. He'll be in charge of that island from now on, as he's the most experienced in this area."
Wen Sha's eyes dimmed, "Will he have to live on the island then?"
"He won't have to live there permanently, just visit occasionally."
"Oh, I thought he wouldn't be looking after us mother and children anymore."
"How could that be!"
Wen Sha's eyes turned slightly red, "When he's cruel, he can do anything. I didn't really want to leave the island this time, but he threatened me with self-harm and warned me not to return to Country Y. You have no idea how difficult it was for me to come to China alone with two children. Fortunately, the fishermen were very friendly to us, otherwise, I don't know how I would have survived."
Lan Yu Xi hugged her, "It's okay, don't be sad anymore. Everything is getting better now. And you, why didn't you look for my master when you were having such a hard time?"
"He never mentioned his father, and I only found out that Shi Kuo's grandfather is still alive."
Lan Yu Xi sighed, "My senior brother, why is his temper so much like my master's!"
The two chatted for a while longer in the study. After Lan Yu Xi's persistent persuasion, Wen Sha finally accepted the gifts.
Just past eleven o'clock, Joyce arrived with Luo Wan Qi.
Luo Wan Qi saw that Lan Yu Xi hadn't slept and pouted, "If I had known you weren't going to sleep, I wouldn't have bothered going to the hospital."
Lan Yu Xi placed her hand on Luo Wan Qi's pulse, "Did the test results come out?"
"They did." Joyce handed over the results.
Lan Yu Xi flipped through them casually, and her brow suddenly furrowed, "You're bleeding?"
Joyce awkwardly touched his nose.
Luo Wan Qi's face also turned crimson.
Lan Yu Xi understood immediately and kicked Joyce, "Are you trying to die!"
Joyce pouted aggrievedly, "Master, I was wrong."
Lan Yu Xi glared at him unhappily, "Wan Qi is not going back tonight!"
"Ah?" Joyce paused slightly, then grinned cheekily, "Great! We can finally live with Master again."
