I, Lu Yan, Won“t Take the Blame 6
“Why did you ask this?” Han Yueyao was surprised.
“I’m just curious.”
“Then the answer is no. Xiaoxiao, even without Su Yu, I’d never accept Lin Hang... First of all, I’d never steal my friend’s sweetheart; second of all, Lin Hang’s not my type. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to hurt you. Now that you know it, I want to set things straight with you. I hope you don’t misunderstand me.”
Han Yueyao was smart and had guessed Su Xiaoxiao’s meaning from her question, so she told the latter everything.
“I’m so happy to hear it... I know I can trust you.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and totally let go of her suspicion.
Then, they went back to their dorm.
– At South Hill Manor –
Huo Mian had been uneasy ever since she returned from her mother’s home.
Qin Chu worked late and came home fatigued after the kids were asleep.
“Honey, you’re still not in bed?”
The moment he went upstairs, he saw Huo Mian standing at the entrance of their bedroom in her sleeping gown.
“It’s still early. I can’t sleep.”
“You can’t sleep because you’re still excited about Zhixin’s marriage registration?” Qin Chu chuckled as he took off his suit jacket.
“How did you know that? Did you see the posts in Zhixin and Bella’s Moments?” Huo Mian asked.
“I didn’t need to. Zhixin called me and asked for a honeymoon leave.”
“Great sir, did you grant him the leave?”
“He’s my brother-in-law. How could I refuse? I granted the leave and will even pay for all their honeymoon expenses.”
“Honey, you’re so good.”
Full of happiness, Huo Mian stood on her toes and planted a big kiss on his cheek.
“I have dust on me. Kiss me after I take a shower.”
“Haha. I won’t like to kiss you after the shower... I’ll only smell the scent of the shower lotion.”
Huo Mian gave him a playful grin.
“During the two weeks when Zhixin and Bella are on vacation, you’ll be extremely busy in the company,” said Huo Mian.
“Of course.”
“So, President Qin, do you want me to give you a hand?”
“You? Forget it... I don’t want you to work. It’s not the right time.” Qin Chu immediately refused his wife’s offer.
“But I feel bored staying at home. I won’t be in labor for a while... Maybe I’ll go and work in a private hospital?”
Qin Chu: “...”
“Are you blackmailing me?”
“Kind of. So, Mr. Qin, do you submit to my blackmail?”
“Do I have a choice?”
Qin Chu looked resigned.
Huo Mian knew him so well that she had never failed when she tried to blackmail him.
“Oh, Honey, I want you to investigate something for me.”
“What is it?”
Huo Mian told him how Zhixin saw Uncle Jing at a crossing during the day.
Hearing her words, Qin Chu fell silent.
“Honey, don’t you think it’s weird?”
“You want me to ask Gao Ran to pull out the surveillance clips and see if that person is indeed...?”
“He can’t be Uncle Jing. There’s no doubt that Uncle Jing is dead. My mom saw the body and I saw him get buried...”
“I’ll call Gao Ran now and ask him to pull out the surveillance clips. I want to see if the dead came back to life or if someone is trying to mess with us.”
Like Huo Mian, Qin Chu knew it didn’t bode well to see a man who had died long ago suddenly appear on the street.
Zhixin was gullible but Huo Mian and Qin Chu were not stupid.
– Meanwhile, on an island off Australia –
Lu Yan was having fun while driving a speedboat on the sea. After making a big circle, she pulled it to the beach and jumped out.
“Boss, more and more people are looking for you... They all say the woman named Zeng Rou is in your hands. Her father is somewhat powerful and is asking many forces to search for you.”
“In my hands? I’m a picky person. Do you think I’d catch a woman like her? What do I need her for? To eat in hot pot?” Lu Yan glared at them and cursed.
