After coming back from the beach, Leng Mubai had changed again. He became very quiet as he sat alone in his study, gazing out the window for three to four hours without changing his posture.
"Senior, what's wrong?" She looked down at him, and when he couldn't take his eyes off her, she sat down on his lap and took his face in her hands, forcing him to look at her.
Leng Mubai retracted his gaze and looked at her face, but she was unable to understand his gaze. It was a gaze that was very, very deep, and it was impossible to find any of his thoughts.
"What's wrong? "Are you not feeling well?" When he went out and came back, he was perfectly fine and nothing bad happened. Could it be that he was blowing the sea breeze?
He stretched out his hand to feel his forehead. It wasn't hot!
Lan Xinyue didn't understand. Even if she understood him a little, she didn't know why he was making a ruckus at the moment. "How about I accompany senior to watch the show and laugh? She's crazy with Miao Qin Xin right now, to the point of drooling. Ah Xiao said that he would bring Xiaoxiao to take art photos tomorrow. Would you like to go with them? "
Leng Mubai blinked, he understood but didn't seem to understand. He only stared at her blankly for a long time before moving his lips, but in the end, he didn't say anything. What could he say?
"Is senior angry that I'm going out tomorrow night?" Lan Xinyue didn't understand him and could only try her best to untie his heart. She thought about it and realized that this was the only thing she could do in this situation.
The Spring Festival was coming in another week. The company would only be on vacation on New Year's Eve. As there were expatriates who were busy with work and could not return, they had to leave a few days earlier. Thus, the company's annual feast was set for tomorrow night.
This way, after the party, the staff can return home in order to reunite with their families on the far side of the road.
In the past, Leng Mubai would always attend the end of year banquets. With his appearance this year, not only could he not attend, but he couldn't even show his face. That was why Lan Xinyue wanted to bring Little Jie over and leave him at home for the night.
He hated being left behind by her the most!
Lan Xinyue stared into his eyes, smiled, and said, "Is it because you can't see me tomorrow night that you want to be angry? "Is that so? Tell it to me, and I'll help you analyze it."
Leng Mubai pursed his lips, but didn't laugh in the end.
"Speak, senior. Tell me what's on your mind." Lan Xinyue encouraged him to open his heart.
He didn't say anything, just reached out his hand and touched her eyes, bright and shining like diamonds, a light that hadn't been there four months ago, only after he'd gone mad.
He sighed deeply in his heart. Perhaps there was nothing perfect in this world!
"Senior, I don't want to say. Can senior accompany me for a walk and bring Little Jie back? He's still staying with dad." Dad is old and he has poison on him, but he can't handle that kid. " Lan Xinyue came to him in a different way.
However, there was no happiness or sadness in his voice. "Mommy has daddy, Daddy has daddy, Daddy has mommy …"
At first, Lan Xinyue didn't understand what he meant, but after listening to him a few more times, she understood. He was saying, "You found father, and your father is my father, but when will I be able to find you?"
Lan Xinyue fell silent. She didn't know how to answer. Ever since she was young, she had yearned for her parents and a healthy home. The King of Fighting's bad nature had made her extremely disgusted with the word 'father'.
After all, she had always been looking for her mother and had always been protecting her. Gradually, she fell in love with this kind of father, and would always care about his mood and his thoughts …
The new year was about to arrive, and she didn't want to leave the knot until next year, so she had made a marriage.
But when it came to Leng Mubai's matter, she wasn't able to accept it. Even if she cared about him, she had convinced herself time and time again that she couldn't completely accept it. She still needed more time, and time was the cure for everything.
Lowering her eyes, avoiding his dazed yet eager gaze, she said softly, "Senior, you have to hurry up and recover. You'll only be able to find me after you recover."
Leng Mubai smiled, a smile that Lan Xinyue could not understand no matter how she looked at it. His smile was not one of happiness, but of sadness. He was laughing at Lan Xinyue for lying to him. When he recovered, she had left him.
He was crazy, and he understood her thoughts!
The next day, Lan Xinyue went to the company early in the morning. Just as she was about to leave, Yan Cheng also hurried over, patting his chest as he promised her that he would definitely keep a good eye on the second young master and would absolutely not lose him.
At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, she finished her work and immediately called Yan Cheng to ask about Leng Mubai's condition.
Yan Cheng was in a good mood as he said in a high voice, "Don't worry. We just finished taking Xiaoxiao's artistic photo outside and was preparing to go to the restaurant for dinner. He performed very well today and even took many good pictures with Xiaoxiao. We'll show you when we get home later."
She said yes and hung up.
At 5 PM in the afternoon, she called Yan Cheng again. Yan Cheng said, "We went to play in the game park. The Second Young Master was even more happy than that. He took the roller coaster twice. We just got back and were about to take a shower and have dinner. "
She said, "It's good that he's back. Let him eat more. It's dark at night, so keep close to him. Usually at night, he's very agitated. "
Yan Cheng slapped his chest loudly, "Don't worry, I will be his companion today. I will accompany you to eat, play, and sleep, all the way until you go home."
Lan Xinyue relaxed for the time being and changed into her formal attire before rushing to the banquet site with Little Jie.
The venue for the banquet was still his own Heaven's Pond Hotel. It was exclusive and not open for business. The entire building was decorated and one could see the bright lights from afar.
Today, besides her own internal staff, there were also many business partners and high-ranking officials of Hua City. Lan Xinyue didn't dare to be negligent, and made a long speech on behalf of Leng Mubai. She praised everyone so much that not a drop of water could be seen, and everyone beamed with joy, looking forward to the beautiful cooperation in the coming year.
After she finished, she invited a few more business partners and senior officials to speak, then the company's top executives to speak … By the time this set of procedures was completed, she was already standing there exhausted, unable to rest. She dragged her long white skirt along with her red wine cup as she weaved through the crowd, toasting and laughing, doing her duty as a host.
The wrinkles between his brows seemed to have grown deeper. While he was making use of Lan Xinyue to toast, he called her over to the side to avoid the clamor of the music and the aroma of the wine. "Is everything alright with your father?"
Lan Xinyue was a little surprised. She was surprised that he would greet her so directly. She smiled and said, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, Young Flower."
"Last time when Second Young Master held a banquet for you, you came to ask me. I have some difficulties that I couldn't explain in detail, please forgive me." Hua Shao's tone was especially careful.
Lan Xinyue raised an eyebrow, "Young Master Hua wants to talk to me about this tonight?"
Hua Shao lowered his head and looked at his toes with a complicated expression.
Lan Xinyue lifted her glass and clinked it against his, then laughed: "When my mother was still alive, thank you for taking care of me, Young Master Hua. You can't say anything difficult, how can I not understand? Young Master Hua, actually, as far as you are concerned, I am only grateful. Truly, I am very grateful for the warmth you have given my mother. "
Hua Shao laughed even more forcefully, "Your father was very angry that day, scolding me and scolding my godson for not being good enough. "Madam Leng, I'm sorry to have caused your premature birth, but my son really did it unintentionally. Please go back and have a good talk with your father. Let my son be released, the new year is about to arrive …"
"What did you say?" You said that Young Master Hua was imprisoned by my father? " Lan Xinyue was shocked. No matter what, she couldn't think of such a thing.
Hua Shao nodded his head, "If it wasn't for my son, you wouldn't have been born prematurely and wouldn't have experienced such risks. I can understand why your father would have imprisoned him." "But he really didn't mean it. He didn't know that he was being used by the bad guys …"
Lan Xinyue waved her hand and interrupted his words, "Don't worry Young Master Hua, if Young Master Hua is still at my father's place, I'll tell him to release her when I get back. Actually, Young Master Hua didn't do anything wrong in this matter. He only cared about me, so he did bad things with good intentions. "These past few days have been tough on Young Master Hua. I'll definitely come visit you another day to apologize."
Young Master Hua then let out a sigh of relief. He only had one son, and besides, he knew who Su Qi was. If he messed with that Buddha, would the Hua Family be able to survive? I'm afraid it's even more mysterious than the fist king's death.
Lan Xinyue seemed to understand his worries. She leaned over and whispered into his ear, "Young Master Hua doesn't need to worry, my dad already washed his hands. He's in the business, and has helped the American police solve several major cases."
Two of them were directed by Little Elegant. Even now, she was still unable to find the source of the mystery. This was also the most gratifying aspect about her. Her son was a clean and clean little hero!
Hua Shao chuckled awkwardly. "The older you are, the more afraid you'll be of death. What a joke …"
"You can't go in, you can't go in …"
"Why can't we go in? We want to meet Mrs. Leng …"
While he was speaking, a group of reporters came from somewhere. There were hundreds of them, so many that they had to count. They rushed over, disturbing the banquet and even forced the music to stop.
Little Jie was also standing there, staring at them with a sharp gaze. Not even giving them time to speak, they could only hear those reporters starting to ask like machine guns.
"In order to save her son and not accept the test tube baby, Miss Lan divorced Second Young Master and became friends anew. Is it Mrs. Leng's identity that Miss Lan is attending this banquet tonight? "
"Mrs. Leng, is Second Young Master here to attend tonight's end of year banquet?"
"Mr. Leng attends this company's banquet every year. Why haven't I seen him this year?"
"Mrs. Leng, there are rumors in the outside world that Mr. Leng had gone insane from shock three months ago. May I ask if this is true?"
With a boom, Lan Xinyue froze on the spot. She had never been at a loss before. Everyone looked at her in astonishment. Flashlights surrounded her as they flickered. She only felt a wave of dizziness wash over her …
How would they know? Who spread the news?
