Chapter 332 - Take Actions (1/2)

Lan Lixiao was cleaning the pictures in his study. He looked up when someone came in.

“I don’t want to quarrel with you today.”

Lan Lixiao snorted and continued to clean the pictures.

Lan Heng came towards him casually. “Stop cleaning them. My mother does not like you to do it.”

“Nonsense!” Lan Lixiao shot him a glare. “You just said you did not want to quarrel.”

“I am not here to quarrel with you.” Lan Heng snatched the pictures from Lan Lixiao, and put them away.

Lan Lixiao stood up immediately and said, “Slowly. Don’t drop them.”

“Dad, do you have anything to say?” Lan Heng asked.

“What can I say?” Lan Lixiao glanced at him. “Can you stay here to manage our company?”

Lan Heng raised his eyes slightly and said, “Second elder brother and Lan Wenxuan can do it.”

“They are hardly comparable to you.” Lan Lixiao said, after a momentary hesitation, “You know your second elder brother can keep our business going, but he is not able to improve it.”

Lan Lixiao sighed, when he saw his youngest son saying nothing. “I know you chose to leave for the benefit of our family. Otherwise, your second elder brother would be restless.”

“Stop discussing trivial details. I left for my freedom.” Lan Heng ignored his compassionate father and said, “Let’s come to the point.”

Lan Lixiao snorted. “What’s your business?”

“Dad.” Lan Heng stared at him. “What’s the matter with A Miao?”

Lan Lixiao’ eyes flashed. “A Miao is okay.”

“…” Lan Heng suddenly stood up. “I see. You can go about with your business then.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and left immediately.

Lan Lixiao frowned and when Lan Heng reached the door, he said, “Don’t hurt her. She is a good girl.”

“I don’t care.” Lan Heng waved his hands and closed the door.

When A Miao learnt that Li Nian had hired Shen Xinglan’s subordinates to kill her, her facial expression was as follows.

“It seems that Yin Sihai did not sell the news to the Li family.”

Shen Xinglan helped her put on her jacket. “I have an appointment with him tonight, so I will send you to the Lan family, after we pick Yaya up. Tomorrow is Sunday. I will pick you so we can have a meal in the afternoon.”

“…” A Miao suddenly turned to look at him. “Are you going to take action tomorrow?”

Shen Xinglan looked at her with appreciation. “Tomorrow you need to find an excuse to leave Yaya in the house of the Lan family.”

“Okay.” A Miao agreed with him.

The people in the Lan family were kind to Yaya. There had not been any kid in their household for such a long time, so everyone liked the lovely Yaya.

Yin Sihai met Shen Xinglan in a casino.

“This is where I first met your wife.” Yin Sihai leaned against a high back chair, looking around lazily. “That day, it was very busy here. But today, nobody is here, except us.”

Shen Xinglan felt free to pour himself a glass of red wine. “Since you know she is my wife, stop chasing her. Go ahead and tell me what you want. We are not friends. Don’t pretend to be friendly.”

“Nobody knows you are the head of a killer group?” Yin Sihai was in a daze after asking. “No, someone must know it. So you cannot admit that A Miao is your wife, and you have to come to Jingcheng City, and left your hometown.”

“Bingo, but no prize.” Shen Xinglan raised his eyebrows. “What is your intention? If there is any conflict between us, you and I would be enemies.”

Yin Sihai shook his head. “I am not your enemy, currently. We have only one enemy—the Li family.”

“You and the Li family?” Shen Xinglan frowned. There was no animosity between Yin Sihai and the Li family, according to his investigation.

“It is my private affair. You only need to know that Li Nian wants to kill your wife and the Li family won’t allow you to stay in Jingcheng City.” Yin Sihai smiled and said, “I know you can handle it on your own. But if I help you, this game can be ended earlier.”

Shen Xinglan shrugged his shoulders. “But I don’t trust you.”

“That’s natural.” Yin Sihai looked at him indifferently and said, “So I intend to provide some information for you.”

A Miao received a phone call from Shen Xinglan at midnight.

“Hello?” A Miao was a little nervous, thinking that something was wrong.

Shen Xinglan smiled. “Nothing much. I miss you.”

“Liar!” A Miao rolled her eyes at the other end of the phone. “Do you think we just met?”

“All right…” Shen Xinglan sighed and said, “Sometimes you are too smart.”

A Miao said, “What happened? Your negotiation with Yin Sihai was not successful?”

“He gave me some information.” Shen Xinglan said, “The Lan family really has a dragon vein treasure map, it is in the table you found.

“That table?” A Miao was taken aback. “But it does not have a drawer!”

Shen Xinglan comforted her. “Don’t worry. The information is reliable. It must be hidden in the table in a special way. You can check again.”

“Okay, I will check it tomorrow morning.”

In the morning, A Miao heard Lan Lixiao going out for his exercise and got up. Yaya was sleeping with her, her fists tightly clenched. Her skin was so tender that A Miao wanted to kiss her.

“Baby, you are so cute!” A Miao could not help kissing her, and then she secretly went to the collection room.

She wiped the table repeatedly with a rag. The rag was soaked with a special lotion given by Shen I, which was able to reveal any hidden stuff.

They suspected that the map might be hidden in this table.
