Lan Yuxi's eyebrows rose slightly as she listened to Ying's report. "Wait until he transfers the money, then keep him for two more days before letting him go."
Ying nodded with a smile. "I'll be going now."
Lan Yuxi said, "Remember to find a salon and dye that green hair of his back to normal."
"Consider it done," Ying said with a smile and walked out the door.
Seeing that everything was arranged, Lan Yuxi left the study.
Lan Haolin looked over. "Is that kid going to live here from now on?"
"Mm. I promised his father back then that I would take care of him."
"You're not alone anymore. If you want him to live here, you should at least get Nan Xiao's opinion."
Lan Yuxi blinked innocently. "Oh, I forgot about that. But it doesn't matter, I'll ask for his opinion when he gets back."
Lan Haolin laughed in exasperation. "You're doing this on purpose! You've already let him move in, and now you're going to discuss it? Can he say no?"
"He definitely wouldn't disagree, because if it wasn't for Xiao Zhe, Chao Chao wouldn't have been able to raise enough money to buy the shares from Second Uncle's hand, and the Nan Corporation would have fallen into the hands of others long ago."
Nan Zhenting looked over in surprise. "What's this Xiao Zhe's background to be able to produce so much money at once?"
"You know Bing Yan, right? His father is the founder of Bing Yan. However, he has nothing to do with Bing Yan now. He's just a regular freshman at Qing Da."
Nan Zhenting smiled. "This young man is quite promising to have gotten into Qing Da."
"Of course, he's my disciple, how could he be bad?" Lan Yuxi said smugly and snorted.
Nan Zhenting glared at her, exasperated. "You're already a mother of two, how are you still the same as when you were little!"
"La la la..." Lan Yuxi stuck out her tongue at him and quickly entered the elevator. "I'm going to the top floor to see how the two kids are doing with their studies."
Tang Wan smiled helplessly. This girl was spoiled by Nan Xiao.
Lan Yuxi watched the two children's lessons from outside the door for a while before returning to the second floor. She entered the bedroom and began typing furiously on her laptop. Knowing that Nan Xiao and Third Brother had safely checked into the hotel, she finally felt at ease.
In the evening, the Lan brothers returned one after another. Just before dinner, Ruan Sizhe came back.
Lan Yuxi looked at his dyed black hair and found it much more pleasing to the eye.
After dinner, Ruan Sizhe took the two children to the backyard, while Lan Yuxi returned to her room to have a long phone call with Nan Xiao.
Knowing that everything was going smoothly on his end, Lan Yuxi slept soundly that night. However, without him by her side, she felt a little cold. It wasn't until she finally hugged his pillow that she felt warm.
The next day, Lan Yuxi worked a full day at the pharmaceutical factory. After work, she didn't go home directly but went to the research institute.
Luo Jiaqi was slightly surprised to see her.
"Why are you so free today?"
"I covered for Shi Yi at the factory for the whole day. Since I'm so close, I had to come see you, lest Wanqi scold me if she found out." Lan Yuxi looked around. "This place is much better than I imagined. It's all thanks to you!"
Luo Jiaqi looked at her with mixed emotions. "Wanqi also helped a lot."
Lan Yuxi smiled faintly and averted his gaze. "Where is Wanqi?"
"It's the weekend today, she's resting."
"Oh, what a coincidence." Lan Yuxi glanced at her watch and was about to speak.
Luo Jiaqi spoke first. "It's time for me to get off work too. Shall we go back together?"
"I can't go home yet. I need to go to my master's place."
"Is there something you need to do at Master Hong's?"
"I've taken on another disciple, I need to take him to pay his respects to the sect."
"You've taken on another disciple?"
"Yes, the young master Zhe from the Ruan family. You should know him. I promised to take him as a disciple years ago, and now the child has come to find me... *du du*..."
Lan Yuxi saw that it was her master calling and quickly answered.
As soon as the call was connected, Elder Hong asked anxiously, "Yuxi, didn't you say you were coming over? Where are you?"
"I'm still at the pharmaceutical factory, I'll be there soon."
"You're still at the pharmaceutical factory? Then don't you need to go back and pick up that child?"
"No need, I'll set off from here, and he, Chao Chao, and Mu Mu will set off from home."
"Alright, then hurry over. Your several junior brothers have already arrived."
"Okay." Lan Yuxi hung up the phone and looked at Luo Jiaqi. "Brother Jiaqi, I'm leaving now."
Luo Jiaqi smiled and opened the car door for her. "Drive carefully on the road."
Lan Yuxi got into the car.
Thirty minutes later, Lan Yuxi drove to Hongmen.
As soon as she got out of the car, a tall girl in a light blue gauze dress stepped out of a Porsche not far away.
The girl walked straight towards them. "You are Lan Yuxi, right?"
Lan Yuxi sized her up. "Yes, who are you?"
"I'm Yan Chuting, Ming Zicheng's girlfriend."
Lan Yuxi looked her up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.
Yan Chuting stood there gracefully, letting her look.
Lan Yuxi smiled faintly. "Is Ming Zicheng going on a blind date with you today?"
"Yes, he even told you about his blind date? No wonder Luo Jingtian said Ming Zicheng has the best relationship with you."
Yan Chuting rested her hand on Lan Yuxi's two-toned Rolls-Royce and smiled.
"My father is Yan Bingqian, the governor of Haizhou. It's nice to meet you."
Lan Yuxi frowned slightly. "Who is Yan Bingqian? I don't know him."
After speaking, Lan Yuxi walked towards the courtyard.
Yan Chuting quickly followed. "You don't even know my father? Are you even Chinese?"
Lan Yuxi walked to the gate without looking back.
Two junior disciples respectfully called out "Aunt" and opened the courtyard gate for her.
The moment the gate was opened, Yan Chuting rushed forward, trying to get in.
Lan Yuxi raised her hand slightly, blocking her back. "Miss Yan, aren't you afraid of embarrassing your father by doing this?"
"Let me in, and I'll ask him why he's treating me like this!"
Lan Yuxi said sternly, "If you want to see Ming Zicheng, wait in the car. Hongmen is not a place anyone can just barge into!"
Yan Chuting's expression changed. "It's just a small Hongmen, and you can get in, so why can't I? Don't think you can stop me just because Ming Zicheng has a good relationship with you! If my subordinates are correct, you're supposed to be a couple with Nan Xiao of the Nan Corporation, right? Does he know about your behavior of having your cake and eating it too?"
Lan Yuxi chuckled. "You're seriously ill! No wonder Ming Zicheng didn't fancy you!"
"Mom..." While they were arguing, neither of them noticed Ruan Sizhe and the two children walking over. Mu Mu saw her mother arguing with a woman and was afraid her mother would be bullied, so she called out to her mother from afar.
Yan Chuting turned to look at the two adults and two children, then looked at Lan Yuxi in disbelief. "You have children?!"
