An Ran looked at the man who walked in in disbelief - Nie Canghao came in with Xiaoyu in his arms!
She thought she was overly sleepy and hallucinating, so she rubbed her eyes to look again, but Nie Canghao was already in front of her.
"Mommy..." Xiaoyu shouted happily with a sweet milky voice, while stretching out his little arms for a hug from mommy.
An Ran reached out and took over Xiaoyu completely passively and mechanically, as if she was in a dream.
It wasn't until the baby's soft little body exuding the scent of milk was held in her arms that she realized that the baby was really back in her arms!
"Xiaoyu! Mom's darling!" An Ran cried with joy and kept kissing the child in her arms.
Xiaoyu's face was covered with mommy's tears and saliva, but he graciously did not cry. He wiped his face with his little hands and helped mommy wipe away her tears.
Nie Canghao turned on the headlight in the living room, and the light suddenly became as bright as day.
An Ran woke up completely and realized that this was not a dream - Nie Canghao had brought Xiaoyu to Hong Kong City!
"You...why are you here suddenly?" She reacted and looked at him with tears in her eyes and some confusion.
Nie Canghao looked completely casual as if he had returned to his home. He poured a glass of water and drank it slowly before answering her: "Xiaoyu hasn't seen you for a long time. I'm afraid he will forget who his mother is if he continues like this."
.”
An Ran pursed her lips and said no more.
Xiaoyu finally wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeves, and then continued to call his mother.
An Ran's heart almost melted. She couldn't bear to let go of Xiaoyu and said to Nie Canghao: "Did you bring any milk powder?"
Nie Canghao picked up the handbag he had just put down and took out the milk powder portable box and milk bottle sealed in a grid.
He skillfully brewed the milk powder, tested the temperature, and handed the bottle to An Ran.
An Ran fed Xiaoyu milk powder, and the two of them played for a while.
The little guy finally couldn't hold it any longer, so he yawned and started rubbing his eyes.
An Ran quickly took away his little hand, held it in her arms and patted it gently.
When Xiaoyu fell asleep, she took her back to her bedroom, and when she came out again, she said to Nie Canghao:
"Thank you for bringing Xiaoyu to meet me. It's getting late. You can go back."
Nie Canghao: "..."
He took his son and flew thousands of miles for four hours to join her, but she only accepted Xiaoyu but turned him away?
An Ran finally understood why Nie Canghao didn't answer the phone tonight. He should have been on the plane by then.
"I didn't expect you to come to Hong Kong City!" She was indeed a little surprised.
Given Nie Canghao's hatred for the Lu family, it is impossible for him to come to Hong Kong City unless the Lu family is uprooted.
Lu Renjie re-established the Lu Group, and everything went smoothly. It was obvious that Nie Canghao did not deliberately obstruct or sabotage it.
An Ran looked at Nie Canghao. He couldn't explain what he felt in his heart, but he still subconsciously wanted to escape.
"I have thought about it for a long time. All the mistakes are Lu Yichang's fault alone. There is no need to blame others." Nie Canghao never thought that one day he would be able to say such magnanimous words.
He has never been a tolerant person, but he is a protective person.
Now he is trying every means to protect An Ran and excuse her in various ways.
"When Lu Yichang did those things, Lu Renjie was just a child. You didn't grow up in the Lu family, so it has nothing to do with you." Nie Canghao looked at her gently.
What he meant was that he would no longer vent his anger on anyone related to Lu Yichang, including An Ran and Lu Renjie.
However, An Ran was not very moved. He just lowered his eyes and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, anyway... I don't care about this."
Nie Canghao couldn't help but feel angry.
He didn't know how long he struggled with it before he made the determination to put aside his hatred and prejudice against the Lu family and calmly accept An Ran and her relatives.
But she actually said she didn't care about this?
Nie Canghao laughed angrily and almost couldn't help but want to take Xiaoyu back to the capital overnight.
Angry words were rolling on the tip of his tongue, and he used all his self-control to barely control himself from intensifying the conflict.
"Well." He managed to remain calm, but his tone had a hint of coolness. "Then I won't disturb you anymore. I will take Xiaoyu back early tomorrow morning..."
"You want to take Xiaoyu away?" An Ran was slightly startled.
Nie Canghao stared at her and said nothing.
An Ran knew this man too well.
At this time, he is usually waiting for her to give in.
Even though his way of expression is now much more obscure, in fact, what's inside him hasn't changed at all.
After a long time, An Ran said: "Have you ever considered that when Xiaoyu's custody rights are returned to me, I will also have the right to manipulate you. How you treat me today, I will treat you in the same way in the future."
you."
Only then did Nie Canghao realize that the woman in front of him seemed to have changed a lot.
She seemed weak, but she was not easily manipulated by him.
"I heard that you have been learning business from Lu Renjie recently?" Nie Canghao asked.
An Ran nodded gently.
"It can be seen that I have learned a lot of business skills and can bargain."
The tears in An Ran's eyes had dried up, and her eyes became calm and cool.
"I'm kidding you." Nie Canghao told her in a pleasant tone. "Since I brought Xiaoyu here, of course I will stay for a few more days and talk about brotherly love with Ah Hao and the others."
"Well." An Ran responded and continued: "I will remember your kindness this time. When Xiaoyu's custody rights were returned to me, you asked me to accompany him for a few days, and I also asked him to accompany you for a few days.
sky."
Therefore, she won't owe him anything.
Nie Canghao finally succeeded. He could no longer continue to play riddles with her because this woman had a different purpose than him!
He just wanted to rebuild the old relationship with her, but she just wanted to draw a clear line with him.
"An Ran, can we talk?" Nie Canghao's tone was much gentler.
"I'm a little sleepy." An Ran looked at him with a hint of sarcasm on his lips. "Stop all your scheming tricks. I'm tired of seeing them."
Nie Canghao suddenly changed his color and could no longer pretend: "An Ran, how deeply do you misunderstand me?"
"I don't want to quarrel with you." An Ran made a silent gesture and just reminded: "You can keep delaying the divorce certificate. Anyway, I won't go back to the imperial capital."
Nie Canghao took a few steps closer to her, his tall and tall body enveloped her, and a familiar alluring aura hit his nostrils.
An Ran took a step back subconsciously and warned coldly: "If you dare to mess around, I'll call you Ah Hao."
Nie Canghao's throat trembled violently, and he exhausted all his strength to not allow himself to lose control again.
Every time he lost control, he pushed her further away. She was getting further and further away from him, so far away that he couldn't catch her back.
"I won't mess around, don't be afraid." Nie Canghao's tone was incredibly soft, but it made her feel cold all over.
An Ran subconsciously stepped back again, and she looked at him warily, with a firm tone that left no room for negotiation: "Just give up, I will never remarry you, let alone come back to you! In this life, I don't want to
Go back to the imperial capital!"
I don’t know how long it took, but Lan Yue finally woke up and turned around.
She opened her eyes, but her vision was a little blurry, so she closed her eyes again.
A woman's gentle but malicious voice came to my ears: "You're awake, why are you pretending to be asleep again? Don't you want to see where you are now and who invited you here?"
Lan Yue didn't need to open her eyes to hear Bai Ling's voice. She calmed down for a while, opened her eyes again, and her vision finally returned to normal.
She found herself tied up in the cabin, and outside the cabin window could be seen the dawn sky and the rolling sea of clouds.
About dozens of heavily armed mercenaries were guarding Lan Yue, with Bai Ling sitting next to her.
Next to Bai Ling, sat that familiar figure that made Lan Yue's heart tremble.
Lan Yue didn't look at his face, always mistakenly thinking it was Chi Lin. But she knew very well that it was Bai Ling's man - Reg!
"Are you disappointed to see me alive?" Bai Ling asked Lan Yue with a smile. "If I said I wanted to leave with you, would I be even more disappointed?"
Lan Yue lowered her eyes and kept glancing at the familiar figure next to her that looked like Chi Lin.
"My husband has always loved me, and he will try his best to satisfy me no matter what I want." Bai Ling pretended to be affectionate and approached Reg, with a smile on her beautiful face.
"I said I wanted to get you as a pet, so he sent a hundred top shadow casters to kidnap you."
"I may have disappointed you! Although you are beautiful, the person who wants to kidnap you is me, not my husband!"
Lan Yue finally raised her eyes, and as she glanced over, the pupils of the heavily armed mercenaries around her almost immediately dilated.
——They have never seen such a beautiful woman!
Even if she is tied up, even if she looks a little embarrassed, even if her eyes are a little red and swollen, this woman has the ability to confuse all living beings.
Lan Yue ignored the scorching wolf-like gazes around her, ignored the malice in Bai Ling's eyes, and just looked at one person indifferently - Reg.
She looked at Reg calmly, smiled slightly, and asked softly: "Did you eat the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall I gave you last time?"
