Chapter 198 Coming Slowly
At this moment, Ran Qianxi suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door. She opened the door reluctantly, and Duanmu Yan looked at her with a dark face.
"Where did you go last night?"
The problem that was supposed to come finally came. Ran Qianxi was so nervous that she bit her lips and thought of countless excuses.
"Where can I go? Right in the house!"
"Nonsense! You went out in the middle of the night and never came back!"
The quarrel between the two woke Huai Rufan up. He was still drowsy and walked out detachedly.
"Last night...it seemed like...um..."
For some reason, Ran Qianxi was quick today and before Huai Rufan could react, she covered his lips.
Ran Qianxi's warning eyes covered his whole body, and her smile was already a little abnormal...
"Oh, did you see that?"
Her low tone was clearly a threat, and for the sake of his old friend's happiness, he decisively chose to lie.
"Haha, Fan only saw Miss Ran getting up to go to the toilet at night."
"That's right~ This is my good brother~"
Looking at her charming face, Huai Rufan felt flustered for some reason...
"Yes, yes, um...we became good brothers last night!"
He turned around immediately after telling the lie, and Duanmu Yan's sharp eyes made him even more nervous.
Ran Qianxi patted him on the shoulder for being sensible and pulled her hand back.
"No."
At the same time, Li Zhengzhong followed out dressed neatly, and the first address made Duanmu Yan feel something was wrong.
"A-Qian, do you want to eat at home or out?"
Ran Qianxi was petrified instantly, all the results of her hard work for half a day were burned to ashes.
"Hahaha……"
She faked a smile to try to ease the scary atmosphere, but Duanmu Yan saw everything abnormal.
"Ah Qian?"
Duanmu Yan's steps and scrutinizing eyes were getting closer and closer.
"When did Xixi become so close to Mr. Li?"
Ran Qianxi quietly took a step back and prepared to escape, but unexpectedly, after running laboriously onto the long street, Duanmu Yan did a somersault and landed easily in front of her.
Ran Qianxi uttered incoherently: "Handsome..."
Duanmu Yan stepped forward step by step, and Ran Qianxi could only stand still.
In the eyes of Shu Han who was coming down the mountain, the ordinary atmosphere seemed to be bullying the weak, so he stood in front of Ran Qianxi without saying a word.
"In broad daylight, in a clear and bright world, you still dare to bully the weak."
Looking at Shu Han who suddenly appeared, Ran Qianxi sighed impatiently.
"How come I didn't know that he had the potential to meddle in other people's affairs..."
Duanmu Yan looked him up and down, but couldn't tell at all that he was a cultivator.
"Mind your own business!"
Before Ran Qianxi could come out to explain, the two of them started fighting.
Duanmu Yan's movements were smooth and flowing, and Shu Han's every move was delicate and careful. Ran Qianxi still didn't know that he was an extraordinary martial arts expert.
The fierce fight between the two attracted passers-by, including Xu Yuanchao who came to look for them.
He looks imposing in his brocade robe, and his suave and elegant appearance is very attractive.
Her waist-length hair was gently tied up with a hairpin, and her almond-shaped eyes were filled with longing for Ran Qianxi.
Seeing more and more passers-by, Ran Qianxi was stared at by countless pairs of eyes and she collapsed and held her forehead with her hands.
Xu Yuanchao didn't care why Duanmu Yan and Shu Han were fighting. When he saw Ran Qianxi squatting on the ground, he rushed forward and hugged him.
"I finally found you."
Ran Qianxi was still confused and had no idea who was hugging her.
"Who are you, brother?"
Xu Yuanchao slowly let go of her, and Ran Qianxi's eyes immediately became blank, her pupils dilated as if they were trembling and moving.
"Xu Yuanchao..."
Before Xu Yuanchao could speak again, she hugged him tightly, feeling his strong waist and closed her eyes tightly.
She couldn't express her feelings and longing for him, and no one would believe their experiences in their past lives. In her eyes, he would always be the one who silently gave her a sense of security.
Xu Yuanchao also responded and hugged her tightly. In his heart, the woman in front of him was already the wife he was going to love and protect for the rest of his life.
Seeing this scene, Duanmu Yan and Shu Han also stopped.
"How did you find this place?"
Xu Yuanchao touched her hair sympathetically and said, "I remember you said that the sea in Jizhou is not as interesting as that in Rouzhou."
Ran Qianxi smiled faintly. She was naturally happy that he came to find her, but after the last time he came back, she seemed to realize that no one was her right one.
"I'm surprised you came to me, but now I..."
Before she could say the words to reject him, Xu Yuanchaochao understood what she was thinking and took over the conversation.
"I'm glad I can find you. I don't ask for much."
Ran Qianxi smiled, tears unconsciously wet her eyes.
"Then you stay and celebrate my birthday with me."
"it is good."
Looking at the scene of the two people being inseparable, Shu Han and Duanmu Yan turned around and left together, one because of jealousy, and the other because it was none of her business.
Prince's Mansion
Ran Yuelian hadn't seen his daughter come home for a long time, so he went to Xie Ying's house on purpose.
The two were drinking tea, and Ran Yuelian seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xie Ying glanced at him and smiled gently.
"Grandmaster, just speak your mind."
Ran Yuelian let out a long sigh. The whole family had long guessed that Ran Qianxi had fled to Penglai, because Duanmu Yan's mother had already passed the news to Xiahou Jin.
"I heard that the uncle of the emperor will visit Penglai soon."
Xie Ying drank a cup of Golden Phoenix tea and poured another cup for Ran Yuelian.
"Grand Master, do you have something to ask of you?"
"To be honest with you, my little girl has a stubborn personality. My wife and I neglected to discipline her, so she ran away to another state and became arrogant. A few days ago, I heard that she went to Penglai. My son and I have many official duties and are unable to go there. I wonder if you can go there on her behalf."
There was a strange flash in Xie Ying's eyes and he slowly raised his head. He always weighed the pros and cons. Ran Yuelian made a request silently, so he would naturally ask for conditions.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Ran Yuelian had been active in official circles for many years and was also a thousand-year-old fox. He could immediately sense that he was trying to suppress others before promoting them.
"If my daughter can get advice from the uncle, I will certainly be of benefit to her."
Xie Ying smiled faintly. He had everything including power, status, fame, fortune and money. He didn't need to ask for anything from others. The only thing that remained unfulfilled was a childhood wish.
"Fame and fortune in this world are all ephemera, born in the morning and dead in the evening. I am not too obsessed with it. I just want to make friends with your daughter, but I am afraid I need the Grand Secretary to ask for it."
Ran Yuelian understood what he meant, which was that he was simply somewhat interested in his daughter.
"My daughter will be lucky to have the emperor's uncle looking after her from now on."
This workplace game ended, Ran Yuelian got up and went home, and Xie Ying immediately ordered people to pack their luggage and go to Penglai.
