Wu Yue smiled and stopped the car.

The driver lowered the window to ask what was going on.

Nan Yan paid the fare on her phone and said, “I’ll get off here. I’ve already transferred the fare to you.”

After opening the door, Wu Yue greeted her with a smile, “Miss Nan, what a coincidence, we meet again.”

Nan Yan looked at him with a cold and desolate gaze, and a faint smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. She then reluctantly moved her feet, walking towards Qin Lu, lowering her head.

“Brother…”

“Lying to big brother, huh?” Qin Lu threw the cigarette butt to the ground and crushed it with his foot.

His hand, which had just held the cigarette, lifted Nan Yan’s chin, making her raise her head.

His fingertips still carried the scent of the cigarette, not unpleasant, but with a faint hint of mint fragrance.

“I was wrong.” Nan Yan frowned uncomfortably, not accustomed to such intimate contact with a man.

“Brother, can you let go of me?”

Qin Lu pinched her chin and then let her go.

“Why did you lie to me?”

Nan Yan obediently stood in place and said, “I didn’t want to trouble you all the time.”

“Since you called me brother, it’s not considered a trouble.”

Nan Yan thought to herself, “It’s me who feels troublesome, okay…”

Pretending not to notice the resistance in the girl’s eyes, Qin Lu slowly spoke, “Get in the car.”

“Oh…”

The plan failed, and Nan Yan returned to the Lantis Hotel.

But this time, Qin Lu arranged a separate room for her.

Although she couldn’t change hotels, she was relieved that she no longer had to share a room with Qin’s grandmother.

She was now hoping that the procedures for the purchased property could be completed as soon as possible.

After having dinner, Nan Yan opened her laptop.

Bai Yiqi saw her online and immediately sent a message:

[Lord Y, are you taking orders?]

[Yes.]

Bai Yiqi quickly sent her a package of accumulated tasks.

[Lord Y, you don’t have to hurry. Just do them whenever you have time. Just give it to me in a month!]

[Okay.]

Ah, ah, ah! Bai Yiqi wanted to scream with excitement.

Having a big shot like her was different.

He finally had time to go out and have fun!

[Lord Y, I really love you!]

[Is that so? Unfortunately, I don’t love you.]

Bai Yiqi: [!!!]

Anyway, he handed all the tasks to someone else. Bai Yiqi happily closed his computer, took his phone, prepared to go out and have a good time!

Nan Yan had nothing to do at the moment, so these tasks that Bai Yiqi sent were a good way to pass the time.

Opening one at random, she finished reading it in ten minutes. Then she opened the next one.

Basically, these tasks could be completed in no more than twenty minutes, with most of them taking around ten minutes.

When it was ten o’clock, with two or three more tasks left from the package, her phone, placed aside, rang.

Nan Yan picked it up and answered the call.

“Yanyan, why aren’t you at the hotel? Where are you?”

Her phone number was newly obtained. Only An Xiran knew her phone number at the An family. Others were unaware of it.

Otherwise, they would have called her to question her about not returning to the An family for two days.

Although the An family didn’t care much about her as their biological daughter, they did care about the reputation of the An family.

They were afraid that she would tarnish the reputation of being the real daughter of the An family by causing trouble outside.

“I met a friend, and coincidentally, he is also staying at the hotel, so I moved over here to stay with him.”

“Fourth Brother, what’s the matter?”

“It’s nothing. I was just worried about you, so I came over to take a look.”An Xiran subconsciously thought that the friend Nan Yan was talking about was a friend of the same sex.” Since you have a friend to accompany you, that’s fine too.”

“Fourth Brother wants to come and see you. Can you tell me which hotel you’re staying at?”

Nan Yan typed with one hand on the keyboard and calmly said, “Fourth Brother, it’s already late. I’m already in bed.”

“Sorry, Fourth Brother is a night owl and forgot that it’s normal resting time. You can sleep first, and Fourth Brother will come to see you tomorrow.”

“Fourth Brother, I’m not a child…” Nan Yan didn’t want An Xiran to come over.

Subconsciously, she didn’t want him to have any contact with Qin Lu.

An Xiran pursed his lips and reluctantly responded, “Alright then, if you need anything, just contact Fourth Brother. It’s getting late. Go to sleep.”

“Alright.”

Just as An Xiran hung up Nan Yan’s call, his phone rang again.

When he saw the note on the screen, he picked up the call expressionlessly.

In a furious and anxious voice, Lu Lehua spoke, “Xiran, where did Nan Yan go? She’s a young girl, not returning home and staying out all night. What kind of behavior is this?”

“Bring her back to me immediately. If she refuses to come back, tell her not to return to the An family ever again!”

An Xiran asked calmly, “Mom, are you sure you want me to convey that message?”

“Just convey my exact words to her.”

“Alright, just don’t regret it later.”

After An Xiran finished speaking, Lu Lehua abruptly hung up without any intention of listening to him.

An Xiran sneered.

Perhaps his parents hadn’t realized the extent of Nan Yan’s transformation.

This family had hurt her deeply, and she had already chosen to move out. If they didn’t reflect on themselves and resorted to pressuring her like this, they would soon realize that Nan Yan would never return to the An family.

With his understanding of Nan Yan over the past two days, he was certain that she would never come back to the An family.

Thinking this way, An Xiran dialed Nan Yan’s number once again.

Nan Yan heard the ringing, glanced away from her computer screen, and answered the call.

“Fourth Brother, is there anything else?”

“Mum just called and asked you to come home.”

“Please tell her that I have no intention of going back.”

An Xiran’s heart ached when he heard her unsurprising response. “She also said that if you don’t come home now, then don’t ever come back.”

Nan Yan raised an eyebrow. “That’s exactly what I had in mind. Just reply to her directly.”

She couldn’t ask for anything better.

Once she changed her surname and household registration, it would be even better.

The original owner’s wish of a “happy reunion with the family” was destined to remain unfulfilled.

However, she would double her efforts to torment An Muyao, tearing apart her facade and making her life a living hell.

Once she dealt with An Muyao, she would find a way to seek her own revenge…

Suddenly, An Xiran spoke in a deep voice, “Yanyan, can you please not lose faith in the An family? I know that you’ve suffered for these past two years. You’re already changing and getting better and better. Dad and Mom will realize how good you are and truly accept you.”

“Fourth Brother believes that you are a good child.”

Nan Yan was speechless.

Besides, An Xiran was indeed quite good to her.

This made Nan Yan unable to say anything too harsh to him.

Nan Yan remained silent for a moment and said indifferently, “Four Brother, just because you’re good doesn’t mean everyone else is. Perhaps, among the entire An family, you’re the only one who sincerely wants me to come back.”

An Xiran’s breath slightly paused. “Yanyan…”
