Sitting on the yacht headed towards the coast, Xiao Han’s eyes seemed bottomless, as the scenes of Zhu Min humiliating and plotting against him replayed in his mind. Today, he was going to pay her back with double of everything that he had suffered.

…

After Lan Qianyu nonchalantly changed her clothes, Xiao Qi hurriedly dragged her out. Tonight he was driving a little fast as he was eager to reach the sea of ​​Nanjue. When he thought about how the Xiao Corporation could be saved, his mood was particularly carefree. Excitedly, he kissed the back of Lan Qianyu’s hand, and thanked her gratefully, “Qian Yu, thank you. Thank you for everything that you’ve done for me!”

Lan Qianyu did not say anything. She lightly withdrew her hand and quietly looked out of the window, preoccupied with the worries weighing on her mind. Thinking about how she would have to meet Ye Yan in a while, she felt extremely uneasy. Today, Ye Yan had done something so immoral, to her. Yet now, she was going to ask him for help. This was just too ironic.

…

Ye Yan was playing billiards in the entertainment room on the yacht. It should have been boring to play alone, but he played very enthusiastically. When he thought about Lan Qianyu coming to find him soon, he was particularly looking forward to it. The white ball that the billiard cue was targeting, became Lan Qianyu. He closed one eye and lightly struck it. With unerring precision, he made use of the white ball to sink the red ball in front of it into the pocket. The corner of his mouth turned up in a strange smirk. “Leng Ruobing, your sin… Shall be repaid by your two daughters on your behalf!!!”

…

On the way there, Xiao Qi’s mobile phone rang, When he saw the caller ID, he looked a little uneasy and nervously looked over at Lan Qianyu.

“Answer it!” Lan Qianyu said.

Xiao Qi coughed twice and answered the phone, “Aunt Leng!”

“The wedding photos are too simplistic. I only selected a few photos. How can I put them on the table? Also, why didn’t you use the wedding dress I chose for Qianyu? The one you used looks too cheap. How can Qianyu get married wearing that?”

Leng Ruobing’s questioning tone was suffused with strong dissatisfaction. It was very different from her usual easygoing attitude towards Xiao Qi in front of other people.

Xiao Qi glanced over at Lan Qianyu. Fortunately, she could not hear it, otherwise she would definitely be suspicious. In actuality, all these years, it had been Leng Ruobing who had been secretly sponsoring her, including her studies, applying for the police academy, her annual birthday presents, and even the wedding gown and jewelry for their wedding had been prepared by Leng Ruobing secretively before getting Xiao Qi to give them to Lan Qianyu using his own name. However, recently, Xiao Qi was facing problems financially. Other people might not know but Lan Qianyu knew that very well. Worried that Lan Qianyu would be suspicious, he did not dare to let her wear that extravagant wedding dress embedded with pink diamonds.

Other than that, Leng Ruobing also helped Xiao Qi quite a lot in terms of business. Unfortunately, Xiao Qi was not cut out for doing business, and he was not as intelligent and farsighted as Xiao Han, so her help was not of much use.

“Talk!” Leng Ruobing commanded emphatically.

“Oh, Aunt Leng, the wedding photos have already been taken. As there was not enough time, we only took a few indoor photos for the time being. When we go on our honeymoon later on, we’ll make up for the outdoor photoshoot.” Xiao Qi answered evasively.

“What? She’s next to you?” Leng Ruobing had always been astute.

“Yep, the wedding things have already been prepared, and will be held as scheduled.” Xiao Qi did not answer her question directly.

“Call me back later when she’s not around.” Leng Ruobing hung up the phone.

“Why are you telling her all that?” Lan Qianyu said coldly. “The next time she asks about me again, just ignore it.”

“Qianyu, don’t be like that. Aunt Leng still cares about you very much.” Xiao Qi had always hoped that the relationship between Lan Qianyu and Leng Ruobing would improve. It would also be a wonderful thing for him.
