"Today, thank you." Ning Anlan stood in front of the ancient city and spoke with a bit of a gnashing of teeth.
"You're welcome." The ancient city raised an eyebrow as if it deserved a beating. Ning Anlan was about to say something when his phone rang.
Ning Anlan frowned. It was a call from Fu Yaoqin, and she subconsciously wanted to hang up. However, she took a deep breath and answered the call while holding her phone.
It was probably because the news of Hu Yan being captured had reached her ears and she had always known that the news about Fu Yaoqin was very quick, but she didn't expect that it was probably only an hour after Hu Yan was captured and Fu Yaoqin already knew about it.
"Hey, An Lan, are you busy right now?" Fu Yaqin's voice was very gentle, and when she spoke to Ning Anlan, there was even a hint of caution in her tone, as if Ning Anlan was very fierce.
"What's wrong, Aunt Qin?" Ning Anlan's tone was emotionless, and his face became expressionless. When the ancient city saw this change in his tone, they raised their eyebrows in interest.
"Ah, it's nothing much. It's just that you haven't been home lately, so everyone has been missing you a lot. Especially your mother, she missed you very much, but she was afraid of disturbing your work, so she didn't dare to say it. "I just want to ask if you've been busy with your work lately and come home to have a meal if you're not busy."
Fu Yajin's words were watertight, and Ning Anlan had no way to refuse. She had already moved out of Xu Peran's house. If Ning Anlan didn't return now, then it would be unfilial.
However, the company still had something to take care of. Ning Anlan had to take care of the rest of the project in person. He frowned. He should be able to finish it by the end of the week.
"I'll go back this weekend." Ning Anlan furrowed his brows, his tone cold. It was obvious that she didn't want to interact much with Fu Yaoqin.
Fu Yajin clenched her teeth. Although she was not happy with Ning Anlan's tone towards her, she still smiled. She sounded very happy, "That's great. I'll tell Peran that you're coming home this weekend and she'll get ready."
Ning Anlan agreed, then hung up the phone.
Ning Anlan raised his head and saw the ancient city looking at her. He frowned, "Everyone's gone, why hasn't Director Gu left yet?"
"Oh? Did he start chasing people after helping you? I thought you'd want to treat me to a meal. " The ancient city was rather shameless as they talked to Ning Anlan. Ning Anlan's face was dark. He had caused her to lose so much money today. Did he still want her to treat him to a meal?
"I'm really sorry, you've seen my company. It's so smoky, and you still need to pack it up properly. I won't keep you for food anymore." Ning Anlan was expressionless, he ignored the ancient city and left after wiping his body.
The ancient city didn't care. They just remembered that phone call she took. There would always be more places that needed his help in the future. She would always have to beg for his help for a day.
In a flash, it was already the weekend. The company's matters were more or less dealt with, and the reputation of the Ning family could be considered restored under the operation of Ning Anlan.
Ning Anlan stretched his body. It was getting late, and returning to the Ning Family was just right. She really wanted to know, just what kind of tricks was Fu Yaoqin trying to pull?
"An Lan is back. Quickly, sit down." When Fu Yaqin saw Ning Anlan enter the room, she was surprised. Unexpectedly, she was very enthusiastic. Usually, she would only say that she treated Ning Anlan indifferently, but today was clearly different from before.
"Thank you, Aunt Qin. It's just that I'm returning to my own home and not a guest. You don't need to greet me so politely." The words that came out of Ning Anlan's mouth made Fu Yaoqin stunned. She hadn't seen him for a few days, but Ning Anlan's words seemed to be getting more and more eloquent.
"What are you saying? Aunt Qin is just too happy to see you here!" Fu Yajing smiled, but even the best disguise had a slight flaw.
As Xu Peilan was busy working in the kitchen, Ning Anlan lowered his eyes. She was a lady from a noble family, so she personally cooked for her. Ning Anlan started to suspect if she had misunderstood Xu Peilan. In fact, she had always loved him.
"I heard that a lot of things happened in the company recently. I don't really understand either. I just heard that Hu Yan, who was originally highly regarded by Bo Ge in the company, was removed. It seems like it's because he did something bad to the company …" Is that true? "
Fu Yaqin sat with Ning Anlan for a while. Ning Anlan was holding onto a laptop. He had no intention of responding to her, but since she had asked, he raised his eyes and gave her a "hmm".
"Borg, you are really something. Maybe you are too old, and you don't have good judgement towards others. I'm not like you youngsters. The company will depend on you more in the future."
The more Ning Anlan listened, the angrier he got. Recently, Fu Yaoqin was less and less clear on her identity. She spoke these words as if she was the owner of the company.
"Aunt Qin is too serious. We have to be serious about our own company." Almost every word Ning Anlan said emphasized that this was her family's company, while the Ning Corporation was her family's company. It had nothing to do with Fu Yaoqin.
Fu Yajing was extremely angry in her heart, but she still had to smile on face. After all, she had a good goal today.
"That's true, but Aunt Qin still needs to talk too much. Did Hu Yan's accomplices all get eliminated? Don't leave behind any more troubles. It will be troublesome then." Fu Yajin thought for a moment, then said.
She had to know how much information Ning Anlan had, and whether or not she knew that Hu Yan was related to her.
When Ning Anlan heard Fu Yaoqin's question, she finally understood why she had asked her to come back. She actually just wanted to know how much information she had.
"Mom, there's no need to be busy anymore. I'm not any customer, just a simple task is enough." Ning Anlan acted as if he didn't hear Fu Yaoqin's words. He got up and walked towards the kitchen, only to see Xu Pilan busily working in the kitchen.
You know, Xu Pailan used to be a lady. Where did she go into the kitchen?
Seeing Ning Anlan entering the kitchen, Xu Peilan frowned, "Why did you come in? The kitchen is heavy with oil and smoke, don't ruin it."
"It's okay, it's just oil smoke, there's no rush." Ning Anlan smiled. It seemed like she was too cold in her previous life and ignored many people who loved her. In the past, she only thought that Xu Peran didn't love her, but now, it seemed that she ignored her and didn't give Xu Peran any response.
When Fu Yqin saw that Ning Anlan was ignoring her, she clenched her fists in anger. She finally understood now. At first, she just thought Ning Anlan was just a child. It would have been alright if she just made a ruckus. But now, it didn't seem like what she had thought at the beginning, but that she had underestimated her. Ning Anlan wasn't easy to deal with.
