In the car, Yu Xiaolan kept her eyes on the scenery flying past the window without saying a word. Leng Yan, who was usually a man of few words, was already cold enough. On top of that, Yu Xiaolan was sulking and did not say anything. The car was dead silent.
The car drove to the villa area and stopped at the entrance of Leng Yan's villa.
After Leng Yan got out of the car, Yu Xiaolan looked around the villa and followed him out.
What was he doing? Why did he bring her to his villa? Didn't she live in Yi Yehuan's villa? As she was still in a fit of pique, Yu Xiaolan did not ask her question.
This was the second time she had stepped into Leng Yan's house, but Yu Xiaolan was still amazed." His house was so clean, it was the kind of place where there was not a speck of dust! She couldn't bear to dirty the floor.
"Find a place to sit." After saying that, Leng Yan walked upstairs.
"What? How despicable." Yu Xiaolan muttered softly. She raised her eyebrows and sat down cross-legged.
Leng Yan went upstairs and changed into a more comfortable set of casual clothes. When he went downstairs, he saw Yu Xiaolan sitting cross-legged on the floor. He frowned and said,""Why did you sit on the floor instead of a chair?”
Yu Xiaolan didn't look at him and remained silent.
"Up to you." He said coldly, poured himself a glass of red wine, and sat down on Norway sofa.
What was happening now? He brought her to his house and made her sit on the floor. Then, he drank red wine without saying a word.
It felt so subtle.
After a long time, Yu Xiaolan grew impatient and said impatiently,""Hey, why did you bring me to your villa?”
Leng Yan held his wine glass and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly."I thought you couldn't speak.”
How charming.
Yu Xiaolan was stunned again. This was the first time she had seen Leng Yan smile. Even though his smile was not wide, it was still mesmerizing when he smiled coldly. He was already a handsome man to begin with. Seeing him smile like this again, Yu Xiaolan felt like her nose was going to bleed again.
She quickly turned around, her face burning.
Leng Yan looked at his watch and finished the red wine in his glass in one gulp. He placed it on the coffee table. His smile had long disappeared. He said coldly,"Wait a little longer. They're coming.”
They? Yu Xiaolan was a little stunned. Were they referring to Zuo Sichen and Yi Yehuan? Was there another meeting or interrogation? Yu Xiaolan was still a little scared after being interrogated by them the last time.
After a while, someone knocked on the door.
Leng Yan got up to open the door. When the door opened, Yu Xiaolan saw two men in black suits dragging a bearded man in.
She recognized the man at a glance. He was the man who held the tablets of her parents and brother and wanted her to redeem them with money.
She threw him on the ground not far away from Yu Xiaolan. Yu Xiaolan was a little scared and sat back a little.
Leng Yan sat on the sofa and said arrogantly,"Do you have anything to say?"
The man quickly knelt down and approached Yu Xiaolan. Yu Xiaolan was so shocked that she forgot to run away.
"Miss Yu Xiaolan, Miss Yu Xiaolan, please let me go. I'll return your father, mother, and brother's tablets to you. You don't have to pay me back. Please let me go. I have elders and children waiting for me. Please be merciful and let me off!!”After saying that, he grabbed Yu Xiaolan's hands. Yu Xiaolan was shocked and screamed.
Leng Yan walked over quickly and kicked him away. He grabbed Yu Xiaolan's wrist with one hand and pulled her up. As she had been sitting cross-legged for too long, her feet were a little numb. Yu Xiaolan's legs went limp and she leaned against Leng Yan's chest.
She looked up and met Leng Yan's gaze.
Her heart suddenly began to beat wildly. Yu Xiaolan blushed and quickly left his embrace.
What was going on? She clearly hated him to the bone just now, so why was her heart beating so fast now…
Leng Yan glanced at Yu Xiaolan and asked coldly,""Why did you lie to her that her parents owed her money?”
What was that? Yu Xiaolan looked up at the man in surprise.
"Miss Yu Xiaolan, let me go. I was wrong, I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you and taken away your parents 'and your brother's tablets.”
Yu Xiaolan's eyes turned red. He had lied to her for four whole years!!
"Her neighbor is also your accomplice, right?" Leng Yan asked again.”
Yu Xiaolan's eyes widened. What was that? So the neighbor auntie had colluded with him to cheat her of her money?
"Miss Yu Xiaolan, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Please let me go. I'll kowtow to you. Please be magnanimous and let my family go. I really don't dare to do it anymore." The man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Yu Xiaolan.
"His family?" Yu Xiaolan looked at Leng Yan in confusion. You kidnapped his family?"
Leng Yan didn't intend to answer. He sat on the sofa and said,"Where did the other accomplice go?"
Yu Xiaolan turned back to look at the man and listened to him calmly."" Xiumei, she... she... she moved last week. When I went to look for her, I found that her house was in a mess..." Xiumei was the name of the neighbor.
It seemed that the neighbor did not inform him when she took away three million yuan. He was also kept in the dark. Yu Xiaolan lowered her head in disappointment and said to Leng Yan in a hoarse voice,""Let him go." After saying that, she turned around and wanted to leave the villa.
Leng Yan quickly grabbed her arm and turned her body around. He found that her face was covered in tears and felt a little choked.
The man also hurriedly rushed out of the door. Leng Yan gently knocked on the door and looked at her crying silently.
"What do you want? Now that you've found him and told me the truth, do you want me to know that I've been deceived for four years?! Then let me tell you now, you have succeeded!”After she finished speaking, she brushed past his shoulder and was about to open the door to leave when Leng Yan pulled her back by her arm again."Are you crazy? I just don't want you to be deceived.”
After hearing this, Yu Xiaolan pushed his hand away and finally lost control. She squatted on the ground and hugged her knees as she cried. She had never wanted to cry so much, except when she would shed a tear or two in front of her parents and younger brother's black-and-white photos.
"I've always treated her as my family, but I didn't expect that she had been lying to me since I came to Hong Kong. " I feel very sad. I'm really, really…" Yu Xiaolan's words were drowned out by tears."I can't believe it."
Leng Yan looked at her squatting on the ground and leaning against the door."I won't let her live happily." With that, he walked upstairs.
Yu Xiaolan squatted on the ground and cried for a while. Her feet were a little numb. She wiped her tears and almost fell when she stood up. Leng Yan, who happened to be downstairs, quickly went forward to hold her hand.
Yu Xiaolan glanced at him indifferently and noticed the three mahogany tags in his hands. She was a little surprised. Her red eyes met his sincere eyes again, and she held her tongue for a long time.
They were the spirit tablets of her parents and younger brother that she had been unable to retrieve…Leng Yan actually helped her retrieve them…
Yu Xiaolan's eyes sparkled as she made her boldest move." She hugged Leng Yan's slim waist tightly…
Leng Yan was a little stunned. He looked at Yu Xiaolan's hair and held three tags in one hand, not knowing what to do.
