When the two of them heard Lu Zihao's words, they looked at each other and stopped. Xiao Yunyi chased after him, but Chi Mohan was stuck on a phone call.
By the time Chi Mo Han had picked up the call and left the coffee shop, he had already lost track of Lan Xi, Xiao Yun Yi, and the rest. He pondered where he was and decided not to look for Lan Xi.
The person he was staying at the base to monitor the situation had sent him word: something had happened at the base.
Chi Mo Han had to return as soon as possible to settle this matter. Once he settled this matter, he would have the ability to avenge Lan Xi.
Wait for me, Lan Xi.
He then walked in the opposite direction from where Lan Xi had just left.
As for Xiao Yunyi, who had chased her from the start, he soon saw Lan Xi. She sat beside a flower bed in the square, staring blankly at the sky. She didn't even realize that her tears had fallen.
Xiao Yunyi's heart ached when he saw her like this. He sat down next to her and pulled her into his embrace.
Lan Xi couldn't hold back her tears anymore as she continued to viciously beat Xiao Yunyi. By the time she had finished crying and looked up, her eyes were red like a rabbit's.
After struggling free from Xiao Yunyi's embrace, Lan Xi continued to maintain her original position, but her condition was completely different.
The two of them sat there quietly for an unknown period of time before Lan Xi spoke.
"When I said that you didn't understand me, it was not because of a moment of anger, but because you really didn't understand. You can trace my past, but my past will not record my heart. And since you already know my past, why can't you understand my desire to avenge my parents? "
"I was afraid that you might be in danger."
"Danger? That's not why you're restraining me. I've spent the first half of my life in danger, and I'm used to it. Furthermore, it's not meaningless, nor is it for others. It's just for myself, I'm willing to take such a risk. "
"But I don't want to." Xiao Yunyi said, "Since you've stayed by my side, you shouldn't take such a risk. I'll do whatever it takes to get my revenge. You can live a comfortable life. "
"A comfortable life?" Lan Xi mumbled to herself, "What is that? I never knew how to write the word comfort. I would not have felt this way until my revenge was successful. You said you would help me, so I'll give you a chance. I hope you can find out where Lin Shengkun is as soon as possible, even if you can't find him.
Raising her head to look at Xiao Yunyi, Lan Xi earnestly said, "Thank you."
Xiao Yunyi was stunned by Lan Xi's tone. He knew that Lan Xi still didn't trust him. However, this was the best way for him to stabilize Lan Xi. As for the time in the future, it would prove it.
Whether it was to avenge her, or their relationship and their relationship.
Xiao Yunyi recalled the relationship between the two of them that Lan Xi had not mentioned when Chi Mo Han had asked about it. At that time, he had also thought about the contract between the two of them.
He wondered, too, what their relationship was now.
He could not give himself an answer, just like how Lan Xi could not give Chi Mo Han an answer.
The two stayed in the square for a while longer before Lu Zihao drove over.
Chi Mo Han did not hit him too hard, he was just teaching him a lesson. He recovered after a while, but there must have been traces on his body.
Patting Lu Zihao on the shoulder, Xiao Yunyi said, "Go home and get a doctor to examine you."
"Thank you, boss."
Xiao Yunyi didn't say anything else. Lan Xi looked at the implicated Lu Zihao with guilt in her heart. He took the initiative to ask about his situation, but the latter was swung around by his boss's knife, hurriedly saying that he was fine and then stopped talking.
Seeing that Lu Zihao didn't want to leave her, Lan Xi didn't want to talk to Xiao Yunyi, so she simply closed her eyes, but she didn't expect to fall asleep in the car.
When she woke up, she was in her room and it was dark outside.
Lan Xi got up from the bed, washed her face and changed her clothes before leaving the room.
Lan Xi had just come out of her room when she saw Xiao Yunyi walk out of her study. The two of them looked at each other speechlessly as they silently walked down the stairs one after the other and sat on the sofa in the living room.
When she came out of the kitchen, ready for dinner, and was about to go upstairs, she saw that they had come out. Furthermore, the two of them were sitting on the sofa, with one side occupied while the other was far away.
Thinking that they were arguing again, she felt helpless, but she didn't show it. She called them over for dinner as usual and quietly left their sight. The atmosphere was heavy and hard to deal with.
Lan Xi and Xiao Yunyi respected the rules of not saying anything in the bedroom and ate in silence the entire time. After the meal, Xiao Yunyi wanted to say something to Lan Xi. The latter immediately returned to her room, looking as if she didn't want to talk to you at all.
Xiao Yunyi originally wanted to go to Lan Xi's room the same way as last time, but after thinking about it, he felt that he should give her some time to think about it.
He gave up and went back to his work in the study.
"..."
On the other side, in the old residence of the Xiao family, Xiao Jianan's butler brought him even more complete information regarding Lan Xi.
What happened at Lin Shengkun's base was no longer a secret. However, only a few people knew the reason of the base's unrest, and Xiao Jian'an was one of them.
"I never thought that his parents were actually killed by Lin Shengkun, and he even brought her back to cultivate himself as an assassin. Heh, Lin Shengkun really knows how to use people. "When the news of Yun Yi saving Lan Xi spread out, he probably wanted to borrow my hand to kill her."
While looking, Old Man Xiao sighed with emotion at Butler Lu: "But this won't do, even if she was tricked into being an assassin, the Xiao family must not be involved with someone who is an assassin, and Yun Yi absolutely must not be involved with such a woman."
"Master, you are right. However, if you really took action to stop Eldest Young Master and Miss Lan from being together, wouldn't that mean that you're following Lin Shengkun's intentions? " Butler Lu analyzed, "And even if you didn't let them be together, then the eldest young master …"
"What you say makes sense, but I'm not dead yet. As long as I'm alive, I will be in charge of the Xiao family." Xiao Jianan had a tough attitude, "Tell Yun Yi to come see me tomorrow."
Butler Lu sighed in his heart. Since he knew who he was, the old man wouldn't listen. He could only nod and agree before going out to call Xiao Yunyi.
"Eldest Young Master, come to the house tomorrow, the old man has something he wants to talk to you about …" You should know what it is. "
