An Ran rejected Nie Canghao's self-recommendation and said coldly: "President Nie has a lot of things to do. I don't dare to waste your precious time. I'd better go ahead and do your work!"
Nie Canghao coaxed her in a low voice: "If you keep getting angry with me, you will fall into Bai Ling's plan to sow discord!"
"If I trust you again, I will be a pig!" An Ran swore a poisonous oath. "Go and do your business!"
After driving Nie Canghao away, she sent a message to Lan Yue asking if she was safe.
After a while, Lan Yue replied with a message: He was drinking with Joel.
An Ran was a little worried and asked: "Don't drink too much, and be careful not to let him take advantage of you."
After a while, Lan Yue replied: I have received special training and will not suffer any loss!
An Ran couldn't imagine how to train for such a thing, and always felt it was a bit dangerous.
She still hopes to have a chance to talk to the real owner Reg instead of wasting time on Joel.
But Lan Yue was too impatient and seemed unable to wait even a moment.
Apart from telling her to be more careful and pay attention to safety, An Ran seemed to have no better way.
After taking a shower, An Ran hugged Xiaoyu back.
But when he was about to go to bed, Ahao knocked on the door again and came in.
"Are you tired from practicing self-defense with Lan Yue?" He asked with concern.
"It's okay, but my wrist is a little sore!" An Ran said and flicked his right wrist.
Ah Hao suggested: "Let me take care of Xiaoyu tonight! You have a good rest and concentrate on continuing to practice tomorrow."
An Ran was a little reluctant to let go of Xiaoyu, but what Ah Hao said made sense, and finally reluctantly gave up. "Then it's all your fault."
"Why are you being polite to me?" Ah Hao responded lightly and hugged Xiaoyu.
"Daddy, daddy, daddy..." Xiaoyu shouted happily while laughing.
Ah Hao kissed the baby's cute little face, told An Ran to rest early, and left with Xiao Yu in his arms.
After an afternoon of high-intensity training, An Ran was indeed a little tired.
Not long after Ahao took Xiaoyu away, she turned off the lights and went to sleep.
Not long after she fell asleep, the door lock clicked softly, and a tall figure walked in.
The figure stopped, looked at the empty crib, and then at the woman sleeping alone on the big bed. After a while, he quietly retreated out.
"Click", the door closed again.
She slept peacefully, completely unaware that someone came in after she fell asleep and then left quietly.
Nie Canghao also didn't knock on the door, he opened the lock and walked into Ah Hao's room.
Ah Hao had just finished feeding Xiaoyu milk powder and was burping and patting Xiaoyu on the back.
"Dad, dad... dad-dad..." Xiaoyu danced with his hands to express his happiness at seeing his father.
Nie Canghao took a few quick steps, walked over and took his son from Ahao's arms. "Hey, baby!"
Ahao brought him a glass of honey water. "Are you having a social event tonight?"
He smelled a faint smell of alcohol.
“There were a lot of social events at the end of the year, so I just couldn’t pass it up, so I went there and had two drinks.”
Nie Canghao drank a few sips of honey water, while teasing Xiaoyu and asking Ahao about An Ran.
"I plan to ask An Ran to accompany me back to my old house on New Year's Eve. Can you do me a favor?" He said to Ah Hao in a pleasant manner.
Ahao said nothing.
"I know you have a problem with me, but actually I didn't want it to get to this point." Nie Canghao sighed.
Ah Hao glanced at him indifferently and said calmly: "An Ran is back, Xiaoyu called you daddy, and you're not satisfied yet!"
Nie Canghao curled his lips. "That's right."
Compared to the six months when An Ran was abducted by Ahao, he could only rely on memories every day, and he was indeed many times happier.
"You promised to help!" Nie Canghao asked.
Ah Hao said slowly and calmly: "Whether or not I want to go back to my old house with you is Enron's business and I have no control over it."
Nie Canghao: "..."
This kid really likes to take advantage of others just like An Ran, and the more he is pampered, the more he gets favored!
Half an hour later, there was a sound of running water in the bathroom.
Ah Hao was still teasing Xiaoyu, but a warm and contented smile filled his dark eyes.
After a while, the door opened again.
Xiao Jiu and the other four came in and took Ah Hao to play cards.
Ah Hao was a little unhappy and issued a disguised eviction order: "It's time for Xiaoyu to go to bed."
"Is there any mistake? Xiaoyu is in high spirits!"
"Brother Hao is chasing us away!"
"Shhh, there's a sound of water in the bathroom!"
"No way! Don't tell me Xiaoyu's mother is inside..."
Before he finished speaking, Nie Canghao walked out of the bathroom wearing Ah Hao's bathrobe and slippers.
Everyone looked at each other and were shocked by this unexpected result.
Seeing how lively the room was, Nie Canghao couldn't help but frown slightly and said angrily: "As expected, we are all bachelors! We are all gathered here so late, do you have nothing else to do?"
As long as he thought of An Ran and these five bachelors living in the same cabin on the stowaway boat, eating and sleeping together for half a month, he would not like any of them.
Ah Hao lowered his eyes and said calmly: "You all should go back."
The four people reluctantly got up and left.
When he was almost at the door, Xiaojiu stopped, turned around and joked: "Young Master Nie has a wife, so why are you sharing a room with a bachelor? He probably has nothing else to do!"
Everyone burst out laughing.
Nie Canghao laughed angrily and pointed at Xiao Jiu: "Boy, don't leave!"
Xiaojiu ran away in the blink of an eye, and the other three also dispersed with smiles.
Ahao put Xiaoyu to sleep, but Nie Canghao was still sulking.
"When An Ran calms down, you can go to her room." Ahao comforted her.
Nie Canghao gave him a cold look, lay down on the bed, and occupied most of the area.
Ah Hao lay down on the bed from the other side, consciously leaning against the edge of the bed to minimize his presence.
Someone occupied the magpie's nest and still felt confident: "You go and sleep on the sofa!"
Ah Hao raised the corners of his lips, and before Nie Canghao could ask him why he was laughing, he said slowly: "Okay. But it's still the same old rule. Only the winner has the right to speak."
"Xiaoyu just went to bed, who's going to fight you?"
The more Nie Canghao thought about it, the angrier he became, and he asked in a sullen voice: "Do you think I can't do anything to you, so you dare to become more and more arrogant!"
"I don't dare." Ahao lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows.
"Is there anything else you dare not do?" Nie Canghao sneered.
Ahao was silent.
"Those four ignorant boys are getting more and more arrogant in front of me!" Nie Canghao was very dissatisfied and said coldly: "I can't spare the time to deal with them! Wait until the end of the year..."
"Oh," Ah Hao interrupted him and said slowly: "You may not be able to deal with them after the new year, and you will probably continue to be busy chasing An Ran."
Nie Canghao looked at him with a smile but not a smile: "Threaten me?"
"From the day you drove me out of the imperial capital, the four of them lost their respect and loyalty to you!" Ah Hao reminded him coldly.
"What else?" Nie Canghao's tone was dangerously soft.
Ahao showed no fear: "So try to do as little as possible to hurt people's hearts in the future! It takes many years to warm a heart!"
The night was dark, almost eleven o'clock at night.
In the bars of the Imperial Capital, the nightlife has just begun.
Joel seemed drunk.
If wine is not intoxicating, everyone will get drunk; if flowers are not charming, people will be confused.
While drinking, he coveted Lan Yue's stunning beauty and could hardly control himself.
"You, you... are so beautiful! I have seen many beauties... You, you are definitely the most beautiful one!"
Joel finally stretched out his claws towards that beautiful face that he had been coveting all night.
But what he grabbed was a straw.
Lan Yue giggled, held up the wine glass, and said with charming eyes: "Mr. Joel, you are drunk."
An alcoholic is most afraid of others saying he is drunk, so he quickly proves it to himself. "I am not drunk, and I can still drink three more drinks."
"Then let's have three more drinks and no default!"
Lan Yue filled three large glasses of wine with her own hands and placed them in front of Joel.
Joel was so drunk that he couldn't even lift his hands, let alone lift the glass. He stretched his neck to suck the wine in the glass.
But after a few puffs, he lay limply on the table and stopped moving.
"Mr. Joel!" Lan Yue called several times, but there was no response from the other party.
She quickly took out the mobile phone from his pocket and unlocked it with his fingerprint.
Lan Yue quickly browsed Joel's mobile phone, opened various social software to view chat records, then opened call records, opened text message records...
While she was busy checking the content on her phone and taking photos with her phone, she didn't notice that Joel had quietly opened his eyes.
Joel grinned evilly, and the lust in his eyes became more and more obvious.
Lan Yue suddenly felt dizzy and almost dropped her phone.
She realized that she might have been tricked, and there was something wrong with the wine she just drank!
Although she has received professional training, she can distinguish the smell of most toxins, but there are a very small number of colorless and odorless poisons that can fool her sense of taste and smell.
There is no doubt that Joel is a master of poisoning.
Joel picked up Lan Yue, who was gradually losing her ability to resist, and stared at her beautiful face in fascination.
His mouth, which smelled of alcohol, was pressed against her jade-like ear, and he said with a lewd smile:
"I know you are the female shadow person next to Nie Canghao! Last time you followed Reg on Nie Canghao's order, but he got rid of you halfway!"
"Nie Canghao ordered you to continue looking for Reg, right? Hey, you really found the right person. Of course I know where Reg is!"
"You are so beautiful! It's a shame to be a shadowmaker! You have a good time with me tonight. I had a great time. I will take you to see Reg tomorrow!"
