After the phone connected, Lan Yuxi asked, "Er Wan, where are you? Is it convenient to talk?"
Ming Zicheng walked outside with his phone, "I'm at Master's place, it's convenient. Is something wrong?"
"Has Master calmed down yet?"
"Mostly. At least if you come now, you won't be made to kneel before the Ancestor. You'll only get a scolding."
Lan Yuxi chuckled, "Then I'll come tomorrow... I need to tell you something serious. Su Chi is secretly scheming to get a suitable heart for his daughter..."
After hearing what she said, Ming Zicheng narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Send me everything you've found. I'll have someone investigate the relevant authorities right away."
Lan Yuxi typed on her keyboard and packed the files to send, "You need to be quick. I'm afraid he'll make a move anytime, as Su Ya's condition is already very serious."
"It's that serious, yet she still caused trouble at your place?"
"She not only came to my place, but she also went to Nan Xiao's."
"Could it be that she has designs on Nan Xiao as well?"
"Even if she had that idea, it's useless. Nan Xiao is mine now."
"I didn't even get a chance to congratulate you. You've finally achieved your wish."
"Did you not get a chance, or do you simply not want to congratulate me?"
"Both. To be honest, I really didn't want you to get married so quickly. But when I think about the two children, I feel this is for the best. After all, a single-parent family is not conducive to a child's growth."
"The two children really do crave fatherly love... We were talking about serious matters, why did it lead to me? Hurry up and handle the important business. Not only can you stop him from committing a crime, but you can also get leverage on him, so he doesn't keep causing trouble for you. It will also help with the next election."
Ming Zicheng smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister, for always considering me."
"If you want to thank me, then coax Master for me."
"No problem, I guarantee that when you come tomorrow, Master won't scold you."
Lan Yuxi smiled and hung up the phone.
As soon as she hung up, Nan Xiao's call came in.
"Wife, have you eaten dinner?"
Lan Yuxi's face turned slightly red, "I have, how about you?"
"Not yet. No rush, I've already made arrangements at the hospital. The An family called me, I need to go pay respects to my maternal grandfather."
"Oh... About what time will you be back? I'll have the housekeeper prepare you a meal."
As soon as she said that, Lan Yuxi regretted it. She sounded like a little wife asking him when he'd be back, and this wasn't even his home.
On the other end of the line, Nan Xiao's lips curved slightly, "No need to trouble the servants. I'll eat outside before going back. However, it probably won't be too early. If you're tired, you can go to sleep first."
Hearing him say he was coming back, Lan Yuxi pursed her lips, "Don't sneak in. I'll tell them to leave the door open for you."
"Okay... Wife, I miss you."
Lan Yuxi was speechless. They had only been apart for such a short time, and he already missed her... It seemed she missed him a little too!
Hearing the notification of an incoming call, Lan Yuxi hastily said goodbye to Nan Xiao and answered Luo Wanqi's call.
"Wanqi, did you pick him up?"
"Yes, but he refused to go back no matter what. I'm taking him to a hotel. When he sobers up tomorrow, he'll go back on his own."
"Thank you for your trouble."
"What are you talking about! Hey! Don't throw up here... Yuxi, I have to go... Damn it! Are you trying to cause trouble like this! Beep beep..."
The call ended with a busy signal.
Lan Yuxi shook her head helplessly. This Qiao Yis fellow was really something.
Lan Yuxi clicked on her computer again and finished what she needed to do before coming out of the study.
Tang Wan had been waiting for her daughter in the living room. Seeing that she had finally come out, she beckoned to her.
Lan Yuxi walked over with a smile, "Mom, it's so late, why aren't you resting yet?"
Tang Wan reached out and took her daughter's hand, "I can't sleep. I want to talk to you."
Lan Yuxi sat down next to her mother, resting her head on her shoulder, and smiled, "Can't sleep because I suddenly got married?"
Tang Wan affectionately stroked her daughter's head, her eyes reddening, "I've done right by everyone in this family, except you. When I gave birth to you, my only thought was to keep you no matter what. But because of this selfish thought of mine, I gave you an unhappy childhood. When you grew up and the family stabilized, I wanted to keep you by my side and give you the best. But you, considering Zi Xin's feelings, secretly left me again. For a long time, we couldn't contact you. Now that I can finally be by your side, you've gone and gotten married, and to such a family..."
Tears began to fall as Tang Wan spoke.
Lan Yuxi quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped her mother's tears, "Mom, don't think of me as so great. When I left you, although Zi Xin's matter was a reason, the main reason was that I knew I was pregnant. I was afraid you and Dad wouldn't accept it, so I didn't dare to discuss it with you and ran back to Kyoto in secret."
"Also, I didn't contact you because I first had prenatal anxiety, and then postpartum depression. At my worst, I didn't even recognize Wanqi or the two children. Later, when I recovered, I contacted you immediately."
Tang Wan reached out and hugged her daughter tightly, sobbing, "It's all my fault, for not protecting you well."
"Mom, you've already done so well. You've considered everything for me. It's just that no one expected Ling Yun's mother and Jin Song's father to sacrifice themselves."
Tang Wan sighed, "Yes, no one expected them to sacrifice. Your maternal grandmother fell ill upon hearing the news. Fortunately, Zi Xin was there, otherwise, I was afraid your maternal grandmother would have followed your mother away."
Lan Yuxi had a sudden thought and asked, "Mom, do you think there's still a possibility between Grandma and Grandpa?"
Tang Wan shook her head, "When you went to the hospital this afternoon, I, Grandma, and Zi Xin had a phone call. I told them about you and Nan Xiao getting married. After hearing it, Grandma specifically instructed me, saying: As long as you're happy, don't think about avenging her. She has long since let go of love and hate."
Lan Yuxi sighed. Grandma had truly given up. Otherwise, she couldn't have reached a state of no love and no hate.
Take herself for example, she still couldn't let go of Nan Xiao. Whether it was love or hate, he occupied a very important position in her heart.
Tang Wan glanced at the time, "It's so late, is Nan Xiao still coming?"
Lan Yuxi's small face blushed slightly, "He said he would come, but it might be a bit late."
Tang Wan's eyes dimmed slightly, "You only got your marriage license today, and he can't even come back earlier to accompany you. He's not like your father, is he, who only had his mother in his heart and not his wife?"
Lan Yuxi subtly glanced behind her, "He's already out of the hospital. The reason he's coming back late is because his maternal grandfather passed away, and he needs to go there to pay his respects."
