Lan Musi suddenly stood up, "Nan Xiao, what do you mean? If you don't want my sister, just say so!"
Nan Xiao sighed, "How could I not want Xi Bao? I need those medicines to guard against those who plot against me."
"Then you can just ask Xi'er directly?"
"I don't want her to worry, and you shouldn't tell her either."
Lan Musi thought for a moment, "I'll get some for you. You can get it from my room yourself when you get back."
"Thank you, second brother," Nan Xiao said, thanking him before hanging up.
In the evening, the Lan family held a small banquet for Lan Musi and Zheng Peipei.
Old Hong, Third, Sixth, Ninth, and Eleventh Wan were also present, witnessing the union of a young couple.
Lan Musi's joy was evident. Midway through the meal, he became slightly inebriated. Despite Zheng Peipei's attempts to stop him, he stood up and declared, "Next, I have a second piece of good news to announce!"
Zheng Peipei tugged at his sleeve. Lan Musi smiled and held her hand tighter, "Everyone will know sooner or later, why not announce it tonight?"
Tang Wan smiled and looked over, "Hurry up and tell us! What's the good news? Don't keep us in suspense."
"Peipei is pregnant! With my child!"
"Pfft—"
"Haha..."
"What a silly boy!"
"We can just pretend he didn't say the last two words."
Tang Wan excitedly stood up, "Really! That's wonderful! I'm going to have grandchildren again!"
Lan Yuxi smiled and glanced at her mother.
Tang Wan quickly walked to Zheng Peipei's side, "Don't eat any of this. I'll have the cook make you some pregnant women's meals."
Lan Musi smiled and said, "Mom, let's just have this meal tonight. We can start making pregnant women's meals for Peipei tomorrow."
"Alright..." Tang Wan saw Lan Musi reaching for another drink and snatched the cup away, "Drink less!"
Lan Haolin was even more decisive, taking the wine bottle, "Not less, none at all!"
Lan Musi looked at him helplessly, "Dad, I don't need to prepare for pregnancy anymore, I'm going to be a father!"
Lan Haolin said sternly, "Precisely because you are going to be a father, you can't drink. You need to set an example for the child!"
Lan Musi glanced at Nan Xiao, "He's drinking in front of two children, why aren't you telling him off?"
"He's drinking a beverage, do you think I'm blind?" Lan Haolin snorted coldly and beckoned the cook, "Go and make pregnant women's meals for the second young madam."
Zheng Peipei blushed and stood up, "Uncle... no, Dad, I'm full. Please make it for me tomorrow."
"Really full?"
"Really."
"Second brother, since Peipei is full, you shouldn't eat anymore either. Help your wife upstairs to rest. Take the elevator, don't use the stairs!" Lan Haolin turned to the butler standing behind him, "Have someone tidy up the guest room downstairs for the second young madam."
Lan Yuxi smiled and chimed in, "I've already had them tidy it up. But my second brother hasn't announced my second sister-in-law's pregnancy, so I didn't dare to reveal it."
"Then she can move into the first floor directly."
"Alright, I'll do as you say." Lan Musi helped Zheng Peipei out of the dining room.
With the main couple gone, the others lost their appetite. After eating some staple food, they dispersed.
Nan Xiao spoke to Lan Yuxi and followed Old Hong's car out of the hillside villa.
After everyone else had left, Lan Yuxi called Nan Yi and Ying, "Grab your gear, let's go for a walk."
Nan Yi was slightly startled, "Madam..."
Lan Yuxi gave him a glare, "Nan Xiao might run into trouble tonight. I wanted you to protect him, but you definitely won't listen to me, so I have to take you myself... Ying, confiscate all his phones!"
Ying grinned sinisterly and reached out.
Nan Yi hesitated for a moment, then took out two phones and handed them to Ying.
"There's still one more!" Lan Yuxi frowned slightly, "Confiscating your phone is so Nan Xiao doesn't get distracted. When we get there, we'll just lurk in the shadows and won't show ourselves. There won't be any danger."
Nan Yi pursed his lips tightly, "Second Nan took a lot of people with him. You really shouldn't go."
"No way! If you don't hand over your phone, I'll team up with Ying to take it by force."
Nan Yi glanced at Ying, then at Lan Yuxi, and reluctantly handed over the last phone.
"Let's go!"
Ying threw the three phones into his backpack and picked up the laptop Lan Yuxi had prepared, following behind her as she went out.
Nan Yi sighed helplessly and followed them out.
Lan Haolin stood at the door with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at the three of them.
"Nan Xiao just left, and you're leaving too. Where are you going?"
Lan Yuxi's mouth twitched, "Dad, Nan Xiao might be in danger on this trip. I'm taking these two to keep an eye on things from the periphery. I won't engage in combat, so there won't be any danger."
Lan Haolin snorted, "With your personality, if Nan Xiao gets into trouble, will you really not fight?"
"He brought a lot of people, and Xiang Dong is with him. Even if I wanted to act, there wouldn't be an opportunity!" Lan Yuxi said, nodding towards the master bedroom on the first floor, "Dad, keep your voice down, don't disturb my second sister-in-law and the baby."
Lan Haolin waved his hand helplessly, "Go ahead, but you must take everyone outside with you."
"Okay." Lan Yuxi agreed cheerfully, but as soon as she stepped out, she regretted agreeing so readily.
What was her father planning? Sending over a hundred people to follow her. Was he afraid people wouldn't know she had arrived?
Lan Yuxi's mouth twitched. She glanced back towards the door and saw her father watching her. She could only brace herself and lead the group out of the house in a grand procession.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Lan Yuxi gave Ying a signal. Ying took a few turns and within five minutes, they had shaken off the entourage.
"The master will definitely fly into a rage when he finds out," Ying reminded her.
Lan Yuxi's lips curved slightly, "A little bit of coaxing will fix it."
Lan Yuxi said as she pulled out her laptop and typed a few keys, "They're at the Emperor Hotel. Is this the only hotel the Nan family owns? They always choose to eat here."
Nan Yi rubbed his nose, "The Nan family owns hotels all over the country. The family head likes the Emperor because the environment is good, the facilities are complete, and you can enjoy all the entertainment without leaving the hotel."
Lan Yuxi raised an eyebrow, "Why don't you say he's too lazy to change venues for entertainment?"
"Only you can say that." Nan Yi glanced at the computer screen, "Madam, the family head has been keeping it from you. How did you know he would be in danger?"
Lan Yuxi's lips curved slightly, "Do you want to know?"
Nan Yi nodded piously, "I do want to know."
Lan Yuxi threw him a list, "The people on this list are transparent to me. Wang Han Beier is the number one figure. My people started monitoring her as soon as she returned to Kyoto."
Nan Yi dared to ask, "Is she back to assassinate the family head, or to sleep with him?"
