C77 (2/2)

Seeing her crying so sorrowfully, Mo Lan's heart ached and he walked forward to hug her.

”I'll help you.” He made a solemn promise.

However, it was just a banquet. It was a simple matter for him to obtain an invitation letter.

Xu Yaoxi blinked, as if he hadn't even realized.

”I will help you do whatever you want,” he said gently.

As long as Xu Yaoxi could be happy, he felt that this was happiness.

Obtaining the answer he wanted, Xu Yaoxi snuggled into his embrace, smirking proudly.

Actually, this was all part of her plan, and it was to let Mo Lan stand by her side. When that time came, he would be of great help in dealing with Xu Chencan.

Mo Lan subconsciously hugged a bit tighter as he felt the soft and gentle touch of the jade in his embrace.

After the group had eaten their fill, they bade farewell to Xu Chencan and his wife.

In the end, there were only three people left. Xue Tianning looked worriedly at Xu Chencan and asked, ”Chencan, have you offended someone? I don't think this matter is that simple.”

Xu Chencan was at a loss. Normally, she wouldn't take the initiative to talk to others.

”I don't know.” She shook her head, unable to understand who would do this to her.

Chu Lingyu held her hand, and seeing her look at him, he gently smiled at her.

”Probably not from the hospital.” Chu Lingyu calmly shared his speculations.

”Could it be Xu Yaoxi?” Xu Chencan stared blankly at Chu Lingyu.

If someone could deal with him, it would definitely be Xu Yaoxi.

Chu Lingyu pursed her lips, seemingly disagreeing.

After all, he was the master of this matter. It made sense if he was his opponent.

Seeing that they were all silent, Xue Tianning suddenly laughed mockingly. ”You're just a little clown. You're already in such a hurry. If there's any bigger trouble in the future, how will you deal with it?”

Xu Chencan paused for a moment, then laughed mockingly at himself, ”I just want to live a peaceful life.”

He was forced to work with Chu Lingyu, so when everything was over, she would leave.

Chu Lingyu seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He held onto Xu Chencan's hand tightly and said in a domineering tone, ”I won't allow you to leave.”

”You …”

”ChenCan.” Xue Tianning's expression darkened when he saw their hands clasping together. After a long while, he shouted, ”Since this rumor came from the hospital, I think we should look for the source of it first.”

”It's useless.” Chu Lingyu said expressionlessly, ”I've already gone to check, that person has already run away.”

”He ran away?” Xu Chencan looked at him in confusion, not understanding how such a thing could have happened.

Chu Lingyu nodded. Seeing that she didn't believe him, he stroked her hair and said, ”When Doctor Xue told me this morning, I sent someone to investigate.”

How could this be?

Xu Chencan lowered her head in disappointment. She had never thought that this man would be so crafty. How could he just run away like that?

Even Xue Tianning could not believe that the other party had already run away before he even noticed. What should he do then?

Chu Lingyu could see the confusion on Xue Tianning's face and felt even better. The smile on his face grew wider.
