Tang Wan smiled and released Zheng Peipei's hand, pointing at Mu Mu, who was still covering her eyes, and said, "This little traitor!"
Mu Mu pouted, "I'm not a traitor at all, I didn't even say that your eldest uncle and Aunt Zixin are here."
"This little one can't keep anything secret. Hahaha..." With hearty laughter, Lan Mushang, holding Lan Zixin's hand, walked out smiling.
Lan Yuxi looked over joyfully, "Brother! Sister Zixin! Aren't you supposed to come in a few days?"
"I knew Nan Xiao would leak the secret, so I deliberately pushed the time back a few days." Lan Mushang smiled and opened his arms, "Come here, let big brother hug you."
Lan Yuxi walked over with a smile, but the next second, she changed direction and threw herself into Lan Zixin's arms.
"Sister Zixin, I've missed you so much~"
Lan Zixin smiled and patted her back, "I've missed you too, I wish I could have flown over to see you sooner."
Lan Mushang's embrace was met with emptiness. He turned and snatched Mu Mu away.
Nan Xiao's embrace became empty, and only then did he withdraw his gaze from Lan Zixin's face and look at Lan Mushang.
"Big Brother."
Lan Mushang grunted, "You're quite something, kid. I've only been gone a few days, and you've already managed to trick our Xi'er into your hands."
Lan Zixin looked up and sneakily glanced at Nan Xiao, her gaze meeting his as he looked over.
Lan Zixin awkwardly shifted her gaze away.
Lan Yuxi smiled and shook her hand, "Sister Zixin, this is my husband Nan Xiao. You can call him whatever you like."
Lan Zixin looked at her and smiled, "Fifth Brother told me everything after he went back. Strictly speaking, I should call you Uncle, but I don't know if Mr. Nan lacks an aunt like me."
"You are the closest person to him in this world besides his parents, how could he not acknowledge you as his niece?" Lan Yuxi smiled and looked at Nan Xiao, "Husband, am I right?"
"Everything you say is right!" Nan Xiao curved his lips and looked at Lan Zixin, "Zixin, welcome home."
Lan Yuxi gently squeezed Lan Zixin's hand.
Lan Zixin pursed her lips, "Uncle."
Nan Xiao was slightly stunned and stiffly replied, "Yes!"
Lan Yuxi looked at him and smiled, "Look, our Nan Xiao can't even speak properly when he sees his own niece."
Lan Haolin cleared his throat, "Stop teasing him, everyone come sit."
Lan Yuxi walked to the sofa with Lan Zixin's arm in hers and sat down, then placed her fingers on her wrist.
Lan Mushang glanced at the two of them and sat down with Nan Xiao on another sofa.
Lan Mushang said in a deep voice, "I've brought the team with me this time. Have Xiang Dong contact them first. Once everything is arranged, we'll just need to sign."
"Alright, I'll have Xiang Dong arrange their accommodation first." Nan Xiao said, taking out his phone to make a call.
"No need, they've already settled in."
Nan Xiao put down his phone and looked at Lan Yuxi. After she withdrew her hand, he asked, "How is Zixin's health? Should she go rest for a bit?"
"She's recovering better than I expected." Lan Yuxi smiled at Lan Zixin, "Are you tired? Do you want me to accompany you upstairs to rest for a while?"
"No need, seeing you all makes me not feel tired at all."
"How is Grandma lately?"
"She's doing well, just misses you and the two children a bit."
"When winter break comes, I'll bring the two children to see her." Lan Yuxi looked up and saw Zheng Peipei staring at Lan Zixin, and said with a smile, "Sister Zixin, you've met Peipei, right?"
Lan Zixin smiled and looked at Zheng Peipei, "Yes, I have. If I didn't know Mom only gave birth to me, I would have thought Peipei was my long-lost sister."
Lan Mushang looked at the two of them and smiled, "At first glance, they are quite similar, but when you two sit together, you're not so alike."
Zheng Peipei smiled and said, "I've been observing Sister Zixin just now, and I realized that the most similar parts of us are our eyes and noses. The other parts are completely different."
Tang Wan smiled and said, "When Zixin was a bit plumper before, your face shapes were also quite similar."
Lan Zixin smiled, looked up at Lan Musi, and said, "Second Brother, no wonder you don't like coming back, you've found such a beautiful and lovely girlfriend."
Lan Musi curved his lips slightly, "Are you praising Peipei or yourself?"
"Of course, I'm praising Peipei! How could I be as pretty as her? Big Brother, don't you think so?" Lan Zixin smiled and looked at Lan Mushang.
Lan Mushang raised an eyebrow slightly, "In my eyes, you are the most beautiful. And Peipei is also the most beautiful in your second brother's eyes!"
Lan Zixin and Lan Yuxi exchanged a glance, and both let out a snicker.
Lan Yuxi laughed, "Big Brother's emotional intelligence has improved greatly. He's actually learned to speak nicely."
Lan Mushang smiled, "When have I ever not known how to speak nicely? Where's your third brother? Why hasn't he returned yet?"
Lan Yuxi asked with a smile, "Does he know you're here too?"
"I didn't tell him, I was afraid he'd run away if he knew I was coming."
"If he doesn't know you're coming, he should be back soon. But if someone tips him off, you won't see him again." Lan Yuxi tilted her little head and looked at Lan Xiao Liu, "Sixth Brother?"
"Why are you calling me? I didn't call Third Brother. You should ask Seventh Brother."
Lan Yuxi pouted, "It's so far away, I might as well call Third Brother directly."
Lan Yuxi said that and took out her phone to dial.
The ringtone rang for a while before Lan Mu Wei answered, "Xi'er, Third Brother can't help you. I have to go hide for a few days. I'll come back after Big Brother leaves."
"Where are you going?"
"Home is wherever I roam. Xi'er, I'm about to turn off my phone. If you have anything, send me a WeChat message. I'll turn it on periodically. When I see your message, I'll reply."
"Are you really leaving? Big Brother said he won't force you back." Lan Yuxi smiled and winked at Lan Mushang.
"I don't believe him! I'm telling you, don't help Big Brother track me, understand?"
"Okay."
"Bye."
"Bye~" Lan Yuxi hung up the phone and looked at Lan Mushang, "My third brother has run away again, and he doesn't want me to help you track him."
"He really thinks he's something. Without him, I wouldn't be exhausted to death. Let him run, let's see how many more years he can run."
Lan Musi frowned slightly, "Um, there's something I haven't told you all. A few days ago, Third Brother and I had a drink. He was drunk and spoke his mind. He told me he's been looking for a girl who once saved him all these years. Big Brother, give him some time. Once he finds her, or completely gives up, he'll settle down."
Lan Mushang frowned, "Is there such a thing? How come I don't know?"
"If he hadn't been so drunk that day, he probably wouldn't have told anyone before finding that girl."
Lan Yuxi looked over, "Is that girl in China?"
Lan Musi shook his head, "He doesn't know. That girl saved him in Country Y, but she spoke Chinese. She seemed to be traveling."
