“Zhaolin, how are you feeling?” Song Yifei asked when she came running to see her husband in the hospital. She was at a social event when she received the call from her husband’s assistant that her husband was admitted to the hospital because he had a stroke. Without waiting for anything, she came running to the hospital.
“I-I want to meet those teenagers! H-how d-dare they speak n-nonsense!” Lu Zhaolin was so damn angry that he couldn’t even form a complete sense. Even his rebellious son couldn’t easily get on his nerves but that little girl sent him straight to the hospital after exchanging a few words with her.
If he had talked to her for a few more seconds she would have sent him straight to heaven!
What kind of parents gives birth to such bratty children? If he knew which man fathered that little girl and boy, he would send the two men straight to jail and sue them for his emotional distress.
“Calm down,” Song Yifei said as she patted his back. Her husband was a patient of hypertension and now he had reached the hospital. She had been asking him to stop working too hard but he never listened to her.
“Anger is not good for your health,” Song Yifei said as she tried to calm him down.
“Neither are such children,” Lu Zhaolin said while taking deep breaths.
Song Yifei didn’t know who her husband met today but she could say that whoever those children were, they were not some normal children as only extraordinary people could get on her husband’s so patient temperament. He was one of the best lawyers in the country and it was impossible for her to think that two teenagers sent him to hospital. Just what kind of words did they even exchange?
If she asked her husband about the matter, he would only get more angry. It was better that she wouldn’t ask him this.
Outside, the captain of An Xiulan’s security team was waiting for Mr Lu’s wife as his kind Young Miss had asked him to send the lawyer to the hospital when he passed out due to his frail health and only return with a formal apology. Not only this, but his kind young miss also paid the hospital bill. He couldn’t help but be proud of the big-hearted young miss..
He was waiting in the reception area when his gaze fell on two teenagers and his eyes widened in slow motion. When he started working for An Qinyan, he had received a list of people who shouldn’t come near An Xiulan without the former’s permission and the name and picture of the boy that he saw were among the photographs.
The reason why he was shocked and a little bit concerned was because of the fact that he knew about the boy’s identity and An Qinyan had made it clear to her that if the boy ever came near An Xiulan, she had to be notified instantly.
He not only knew the identity of the boy but also the man admitted inside. Today, they were surprised when Lu Zhaolin came out of nowhere. Fortunately, neither Lu Zhaolin nor An Xiulan recognised each other. He did send the information about the matter to An Qinyan but she didn’t react as he had expected her to. She was unusually calm and only ordered to come with a formal letter of apology or he wasn’t allowed to show her the face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQuickly, the captain pulled out his phone and notified his boss about the boy. Instantly, his phone rang, “Find out why he is in hospital. If he is there to check up on his father which is a little hard for me to believe or for other reasons. I expect the result soon.”
“What about the letter of apology?” The captain couldn’t help but ask.
“Don’t show me your face if you don’t come with the formal letter of apology like my daughter deserves. No one gets to call her a criminal when she was nothing but a victim,” He heard An Qinyan over the phone.
“Yes, ma’am.”
On the other hand, Gu Yanxi saw An Qinyan tossing the phone on the table and then taking deep breaths.
“Who ended up offending you now?” Gu Yanxi tried to joke because he knew that she was not in a good mood. He wondered how had such an intense reaction to her, except for the two people that he knew.
“Yanxi, how many hearings are still left?” An Qinyan softly asked.
Gu Yanzi sighed when he understood what she was talking about.
“Yanyan, we are still not sure if the judgement will be in your favour, “Gu Yanxi replied with a soft smile. He knew that she wanted the judge to rule in their favour but if only it was so easy.
“Yanxi, would I be a bad woman if I chose emotional manipulation over justice?” An Qinyan suddenly said.
Gu Yanxi’s eyes widened as he looked at her. “Qinyan! Don’t be crazy. This is not you. You can’t do something like this. You have been fighting the case for years. You have a 50% chance of winning now. Don’t be stupid enough to take it that way. In the end, it’s you who will suffer the most. Please don’t even think about this way.”
“What is the worst that could happen? That I will feel guilty and terrible? I have been feeling the same for years. I don’t mind feeling the same way all my life if it means my son is finally coming to my side,” An Qinyan announced. She was having a hard time being in this country yet not being able to meet her son. She just wished that God never punish a mother by keeping her children away from her. If she could, she would have flown to Lu residence to bring her son to her. But only she could…
“You will win, An Qinyan,” Gu Yanxi replied as he wiped her tears. “Your wait will be over soon. Just have a little patience.”
An Qinyan didn’t know if her wait would be over soon or not…
But she did know that this time she wasn’t going to suffer at all.

“Mom!”
An Qinyan turned her head to find her adorable girl coming her way while scowling. She wondered what caused her scowl today. Her daughter was the kind of girl not easy to anger.
“How was your day, Lanlan?” An Qinyan softly asked.
“Mom, I realised something today,” said An Xiulan announced as soon as she entered the living room where her mother was having tea. “I’m not becoming a lawyer ever.”
Until this moment, she had failed to notice the presence of a certain someone sitting next to her mother.
“Mom, lawyers are dumb, even dumber than me,” replied An Xiulan.
Hearing this, Gu Yanxi hooted. He hated lawyers too. Especially a certain lawyer Lu.
“What?” He innocently replied when noticed how An Qinyan was giving her a dirty look.
“Did you forget your major was law too?” An Qinyan couldn’t help but ask.
Gu Yanxi made a sour face, “Can you not remind me time and again how I failed the bar exam?”
“If not for that failed bar exam, would you be where you are today?” An Qinyan asked, raising her brow.
Gu Yanxi laughed as he moved ahead to squeeze her hands but then felt someone drilling a hole in his head.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAn Xiulan pushed him lightly and sat between her mother and him, making sure he wasn’t getting touchy with her dear mom.
Seeing this, An Qinyan had a hard time resisting laughter. She wrapped her arm around her daughter’s shoulder and kissed her hair.
“Mom, this is for you,” An Xiulan passed the stuffed toy. Among all the today that Han Zixin had given her, only this one was not an animal. It was an adorable little girl with blushed cheeks. She didn’t know why but she wanted to give this to her mother.
“This is for me?” An Qinyan asked, surprised as she looked at the ridiculously cute stuffed toy.
“Mhmm,” An Xiulan nodded her head. “My deskmate got it from the claw machine.”
“Oh, it seems you had a good time with your friend. Why not invite your friend for a meal at home?” An Qinyan suggested again and she made a bad face.
“Mom, he is not my friend.”
“Whatever you say,” An Qinyan sighed.
“Aren’t you gonna meet your friend?” Gu Yanxii asked.
“What friend?” An Xiulan asked.
“Hi, crybaby,” Gu Shangyan greeted her as he came with two kittens.
“Crayfish, what are you doing here?” An Xiulan asked as she stood up to grab Betty from him.
“I came to see you,” Gu Shangyan shrugged his shoulders. “You were ignoring me at school and I wanted to ask why.”
An Xiulan scratched her head and murmured, “I was not ignoring you.”
How could she tell him that she was saving him from getting shamed by everyone in school for being associated with her?
