She cried until she was almost breathless, but he no longer comforted her.
Because there was already a woman named Yun Siyan by his side.
He said Yun Siyan was his girlfriend and even forced her to call her Aunt.
She refused and turned to run.
When her first love bloomed, she had decided to marry him, but he was going to marry another woman.
She cried all night, but he didn't even return to the small courtyard where they lived.
She was like a discarded kitten, ignored by everyone.
The next day, she found out that Nan Xiao had already returned to the military. He was gone, but Yun Siyan hadn't left. She had actually moved into the Nan family's residence.
She heard from the servants that Yun Siyan was going to live in the courtyard she shared with Nan Xiao. If Nan Zhenting hadn't stopped her, Yun Siyan would have kicked her out that very night.
In a fit of anger, she moved to the school.
Later, she learned that after she left, Nan Xiao never returned home.
At that time, she was secretly pleased. It seemed Nan Xiao didn't care much about Yun Siyan, otherwise, why would he leave Yun Siyan unattended?
Until today, she realized that he indeed didn't care about Yun Siyan, because the person he cared about was Xia Qianqian!
Lan Yuxi was tired of crying and lay back on the sofa.
She reached out and touched her lower abdomen. There was a long scar there, left from giving birth to Zhaozhao and Mumu.
The thought of Zhaozhao and Mumu having to stay in an incubator for over a month due to premature birth and having poor health until they were three years old filled her with hatred.
She didn't hate Nan Xiao or Xia Qianqian; she hated herself.
If she hadn't been unable to see the situation clearly and uncontrollably dialed Nan Xiao's number, the two children wouldn't have been born prematurely.
That day, she wrestled with herself for a long time. Finally, she dialed the phone number she knew by heart, but the one who answered was not Nan Xiao, but a woman.
The woman spoke to her while making suggestive sounds, as if afraid she wouldn't know what she was doing.
She said she was Nan Xiao's girlfriend and that anything she had to say could be relayed to her. She would tell Nan Xiao after he was done.
The mere thought of it gave Lan Yuxi a splitting headache. She could clearly feel her second personality trying to take over her body.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly took out a golden needle and pricked her head.
As night deepened, the sound of insects chirping could be heard outside.
Lan Yuxi's headache gradually subsided, and she calmed down.
She rested on the sofa for a while, took out her phone, and made a call...
Kyoto, a five-star hotel
Xia Qianqian woke up from a nightmare.
She dreamt of her assistant being pinned down on a bed by three men of different ethnicities.
The assistant's terrified whimpers grated on her nerves.
She knew this was not a dream; this was Nan Xiao's warning to her.
She couldn't understand why Lan Yuxi was so cherished by Nan Xiao, and what made her better than her.
When she was sixteen, her family moved from their hometown to Kyoto. On that day, her family brought local specialties to visit Madam Nan.
It was on that day that she saw the stunning Nan Xiao returning from the military academy. But he didn't see her, because Lan Yuxi, for some inexplicable reason, was crying and wailing in her room.
After Nan Xiao returned, he rushed into her room. The moment the door closed, she saw Lan Yuxi throw herself into his arms. Not only did he not mind her tear-streaked face, but he also affectionately comforted her.
How she wished she was the one in Nan Xiao's embrace.
Later, everyone dispersed, but she didn't leave. She hid behind a tree, just to steal a few more glances at the man who had captured her heart at first sight.
But what did she see?
She saw Nan Xiao buy Lan Yuxi little wings and wash her dirty underwear.
How could such a pure and noble person do such things for a brat who had no parents?
From that day on, she began to hate Lan Yuxi.
Lan Yuxi didn't know her, but she had followed her many times. She wanted to find a secluded place to teach her a lesson and warn her to stay away from Nan Xiao.
Who knew she knew martial arts? Before her companions could make a move, she had beaten them black and blue.
If she couldn't defeat her, she had to surpass her.
She wanted Nan Xiao to see her shine.
She was a good student and had also studied acting, so she enrolled in the film academy.
Just as she was about to embark on her great journey, she heard the devastating news that Nan Xiao already had a girlfriend!
She cried and made a scene over this matter.
Later, her mother's words enlightened her: no matter how well she did, she was ultimately the granddaughter of a servant, and wealthy families like the Nan family would not marry her.
She went to her grandmother, hoping she would quit her job. But her grandmother said that if she wasn't in the Nan family, they would be forgotten once they left. It would be even harder for their business to rely on the Nan family's patronage.
However, her grandmother didn't disappoint her. She said Nan Xiao didn't like Yun Siyan and told her to wait patiently. She would create an opportunity for her to become the mistress of the Nan family.
Soon, she got her chance.
Madam Nan also realized that Nan Xiao didn't like Yun Siyan. Fearing her son would break off the engagement, she asked her grandmother to buy some of that medicine. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
She wanted to create a situation where they would become intimate before their wedding, so that even if Nan Xiao wanted to break the engagement, he wouldn't be able to say it.
Nan Xiao returned very late that night. It was Yun Siyan who brought him dinner with the special ingredient.
Nan Xiao, wanting to get rid of Yun Siyan quickly, didn't say anything and picked up the bowl to eat.
The drug took effect quite quickly. Nan Xiao's mind began to blur as soon as he put down his chopsticks.
Just as Yun Siyan was about to pounce on Nan Xiao, she, wearing the dress her grandmother had stolen from Lan Yuxi, picked up a stick and knocked Yun Siyan unconscious.
But just as she was about to get into bed, someone hit her with a stick as well. When she woke up, she was thrown into a secluded small courtyard.
Later, she learned from her grandmother that her grandmother had intended to guard the door for her, but Madam Nan had been suffering from diarrhea for some reason and had to stay with the old lady. By the time she had settled the old lady and went to Nan Xiao's courtyard, she found Yun Siyan lying at the door.
Her grandmother thought she had succeeded. When she called people to solidify her relationship with Nan Xiao, she discovered that the person sleeping in Nan Xiao's bed was actually Lan Yuxi.
Upon seeing who was in her son's bed, Madam Nan was so angry she almost died. Fortunately, she managed to drive Lan Yuxi out of the Nan family before her condition worsened.
Although the plan had changed, the outcome was not bad.
Lan Yuxi was driven away by Madam Nan, and Yun Siyan was also driven away by Nan Xiao. She finally became the last one to laugh.
But imagination is plump, while reality is bony.
After Lan Yuxi left, Nan Xiao seemed to have lost his soul. He even made mistakes while on a mission, which eventually led to his early transfer to civilian service.
After Nan Xiao took over the Nan Corporation, her grandmother created many opportunities for her to "accidentally" meet him.
But his eyes always overlooked her.
He didn't even know who she was.
And the closest she was to him was eight months after Lan Yuxi was driven out of the Nan family.
