C329 Past threats

Lu Chen and Xu Zhi Lan stood on the balcony. Xu Zhi Lan looked at Lu Chen and did not speak for a long while.

Lu Chen was a little impatient as she asked: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Xu Zhi Lan laughed bitterly, "Right, no..."

"If you want to apologize, then forget it. I don't want to hear such words right now." Lu Chen interrupted Xu Zhi Lan just in time.

Hearing that, Xu Zhi Lan was silent for a moment, and then he said: "Even though you don't want to hear those three words, I still have to say, I'm sorry. You put me in such an important position, yet I feel ashamed to trust and nurture you. In the end, the company's interests were severely damaged, causing you to lose someone you love. However, now that I have seen how blissful you and Little Warm are, I am relieved. I think Big Sister A Li will definitely be very pleased. "

Lu Chen did not speak, but Xu Zhi Lan continued to speak: "I think what you wanted to know the most is still the matter that happened previously, I did lie, the design was not changed by me, there was someone else involved in the exchange, when I submitted the design to the Engineering Department, I wanted to check it again, but at that time, my mother suddenly fell down from the stairs, I rushed home, at that time I did not think, and felt that there would not be any problems, and directly passed the design to the Engineering Department."

Lu Chen did not make a sound, and only looked at her silently. Xu Zhi Lan took a deep breath and said: "During that time, my mother was always in the hospital, and I was busy taking care of her, so I did not pay too much attention to engineering matters, and then, when I realized that something was amiss, it was already too late, I originally wanted to report to you so that you could stop working in time, but then I received a message from a strange man, she said that if she wanted to protect my mother, then she did not care about anything.

"Why didn't you say that at the time?"

"What I want to say, but they have a lot of ways to make me compromise, whether my mom is in the hospital or at home, they all have the chance to attack. The price of my resistance is that my mom successively encountered accidents, finally going from a normal person to a senile dementia, how do you want me to move? I'm scared, they really infiltrate every place in the world." Xu Zhi Lan painfully covered his face with his hands.

"So they even arranged for you to go to jail in the end?"

Xu Zhi Lan nodded, thinking about everything that had happened in the past, he could not help but choke back his emotions, "Yes, only by doing so can I save my mother's life."

"Then do you know who it is?"

"I don't know, I've never seen that person, every time that person contacted me using a public phone, it would always be using a different number. I went to the telecommunications company to check those numbers, but those numbers are all over the different corners of A City, I can't even find out where he's frequently at, much less know who he is."

Lu Chen frowned, "If you were to hear his voice again, would you be able to recognize him?"

"Yes." Even after so many years, she still remembered very clearly that it was those words that had changed the trajectory of her life. She was originally an architect that everyone was envious of, but she ended up like this, living in prison for three years, even if she managed to escape, she could not do what she liked the most. She could only follow beside Bai Xi as a small assistant.

All of this was caused by those people.

"Don't worry, I have a good understanding of these things. It's just that I don't have any strong evidence at hand. When the time is right, I will give you justice."

"Alright."

"Why didn't you say it before? Now you want to say it again." Lu Chen couldn't figure out what Xu Zhi Lan was thinking.

She doesn't know where she found out what I did, and every time she woke up, she would look at me with a hateful gaze. She hates everything I do, and several times she would force me to tell her the truth with her death.

Lu Chen frowned, and said: "Don't worry, I will be looked after by your mother, and they will not have another chance."

Xu Zhi Lan nodded, "Thank you."

"If you had told me earlier, things would never have turned out this way." Lu Chen said calmly.

"I was too scared." Xu Zhi Lan said faintly.

"Forget about the past. Don't bring it up again in the future. I don't want Little Warm to be between us."

"Alright." Xu Zhi Lan replied before changing the topic, "Master Lu, you are really a little different from before." It became more human.

"People change. Just like you, you are no longer the arrogant person I used to know."

Xu Zhi Lan laughed bitterly, at that time she had the talent that everyone envied, and had a beautiful dream for the future, but now she no longer had the qualifications.

Fortunately, she had received love and found a man who doted on her.

When the two of them returned to the living room, Bai Xi was the only one sitting on the sofa. "Xiao Wen said that she was tired, I let her go rest first.

Xu Zhi Lan nodded, "We have a deal."

After Xu Zhi Lan and Bai Xi left, Lu Chen entered the bedroom. Mo Nuan slept soundly, and the sound of her breathing could be heard. Lu Chen's depressed heart also became relaxed as she took off his clothes and hugged her to sleep.

Mo Nuan's bed was a single bed, so he could only lean her body sideways. Just as he pulled her into her embrace, Mo Nuan woke up and softly called out: "Lu Chen."

"Mm, it's me. Sorry to wake you up."

"Have you finished chatting with sister-in-law?" Mo Nuan wanted to turn around, but she realized that it was extremely difficult. As they were twins, being pregnant for more than six months was as big as someone's stomach, so moving was sometimes very inconvenient.

"Warmth, don't move. This is how we'll talk."

Sigh, I feel like a big stupid bear right now. When I looked in the mirror just now, I realized that my body was swollen and my complexion was haggard. If this goes on, I'll sooner or later become ugly. Mo Nuan said somewhat vexedly.

"Pregnant women are all like this. As mothers, they are all great. Don't worry, no matter what you become, I won't dislike you."

"What you said sounds better than singing. If you really gave birth to a daughter, you probably would not be able to focus all your attention on her."

"No, you first, Little Princess second."
