Pampered wife and sultry: the president lightly pets

Chapter 224 The old man surnamed Xiao

Xia Yan sat on the sofa very vigilantly, pulled Zhan Meng to her side by the way, and whispered, "Don't move around."

She looked warily at the old man with a cane sitting on the sofa opposite them. His vicissitudes of face bore the marks left by the years, his skin was slightly loose, and his eyelids were slightly drooping. He looked over kindly, and the corners of his eyes would Very shallow wrinkles appear.

Wearing a dark red tunic suit and wearing a jade wrench on his thumb, Xia Yan frowned silently, took a look, and said lightly, "Grandpa, we have sent you home and entered the house too. .”

"Where do you live now? It's getting late, why don't you just rest here for a night?"

"No need, we are in a hurry." Xia Yan directly refused.

"Even if you are in a hurry, you must pay attention to safety. Those people just now..."

"We didn't know those people just now." Xia Yan said quickly.

Zhan Meng rolled her eyes at the back of Xia Yan's head, and took a step to the side, "Okay, I just feel very tired too."

"Zhan Meng!"

Xia Yan stared at Zhan Meng helplessly, shouted her name angrily, then leaned over to meet the old man's hot gaze, and whispered in her ear, "Lu Zhengting and the others have already found them."

"I know."

"Then shouldn't we leave here right now?" Xia Yan recalled the scene of the brawl on the street just now, and she still had lingering fears. Feeling a fiery gaze following her, she suddenly raised her head and stared at the old man intently.

"That's the story, but where are we going? Think about it carefully, Lu Zhengting must have known about our use of fake ID cards, and the person who is looking for us now, oh, it's not us, it's you People, not just Lu Zhengting's people." Zhan Meng pursed her lips and smiled.

Hearing this, Xia Yan was slightly startled, and saw Zhan Meng waved his big hand, and said in front of the old man with a smile, "Master, if you don't think we are troublesome, then we will bother you."

"You can do whatever you want. Usually, I am the only one in this house. With you here, I can accompany the old man to relieve my boredom."

Zhan Meng blinked, turned to stare at Xia Yan who was still in a daze, sighed lightly, and reached out her arms helplessly, "Xia Yan, you have to trust me."

Xia Yan pondered for a moment, and now she could only nod her head. It is true that Zhan Meng was well prepared for the safe journey to Yuzhou. Otherwise, she was the only one, and she might be caught before leaving Jiangcheng.

When the old man saw Xia Yan let go, a smile instantly appeared on his wrinkled face. The bodyguard who had been following him disappeared when he entered the gate. He put his crutches aside and ordered the servant to make some supper for him. They eat.

Probably because he was worried that they would not let go, the old man only sat in the living room for a while, and then went back to the room with the support of the housekeeper.

"Old Zhou, go and help me investigate the origin of that little girl."

"Is the master suspicious of her relationship with Miss Lanzhi?"

"Well, how can there be two people who are so similar in this world, by the way, find all her information for me."

"Ok."

"Everything they ask for is met."

Xia Yan sat restlessly, and his eyes fell on Zhan Meng anxiously, which made Zhan Meng, who was eating, stop the movement of his mouth.

"Xia Yan, why are you suddenly so vigilant?"

"It's all because of you. We don't know his background at all, so you dare to live here. If he and Lu Zhengting are not in the same way, then wouldn't we automatically send him to the door?"

Zhan Meng leaned forward and grabbed a handful of melon seeds in her palm. While eating the melon seeds, she said, "Xia Yan, actually, you really think too much about this matter."

"What the hell are you talking about?" She was completely fooled by Zhan Meng now.

"Hey, how should I explain it to you? Let me make a long story short. I only know that besides Lu Zhengting's people are looking for you, there are other people also looking for you. Now I can only be sure that it is safest for us to stay here."

"why?"

"Are you a hundred thousand why?" Zhan Meng rolled her eyes and waved at Xia Yan. Seeing her approaching, she was just about to speak when she caught a glimpse of the housekeeper coming down the stairwell from the corner of her eye and smiled, " Go back to your room and tell you."

"The master explained that the two ladies can stay here as long as they want, and they can make any requests."

"Don't bother, we only stay for one night...ah..."

Zhan Meng pinched Xia Yan's waist secretly, and looked at Xia Yan with concern, "Are you okay? Are you too tired?" As soon as the words fell, she immediately turned to look at the housekeeper, "Okay, we won't be polite."

"Who said..."

Zhan Meng's eyes bent into a long and thin arc, and she pulled Xia Yan to stop her from speaking, "Housekeeper Zhou, where are we going to stay tonight?" 
"You two ladies, please follow me."

Seeing this, Xia Yan was very angry, but he could only follow Zhan Meng. After Housekeeper Zhou went out in the room, Xia Yan stood in front of her and asked inexplicably, "What are you trying to trick?"

"Hey, don't worry, Xia Yan, come here, I'll tell you." Zhan Meng patted the bed, leaned back comfortably, spread her hands, and stared at Xia Yan with her head tilted, eyebrows and eyes bent, " Come here."

Seeing this, Xia Yan shook his head with a headache, walked casually to the edge of the bed, and chose to half-squat on the edge of the bed, "Let's talk."

"Didn't you hear that the proprietress said that you were very interested in the daughter of the richest man in Yuzhou? So I used my expertise to investigate this matter, and I found out that the old man just now is from Yuzhou. The richest man, do you understand? We are here, and they won't be able to find us for a while."

"Over there at the hotel?"

"The hotel is no longer safe. I think Lu Zhengting should already know about it, and maybe he is still in the hotel waiting for us to go back and throw ourselves into the trap." Zhan Meng rubbed his chin, and as he talked, he still felt that his analysis was sound. Give yourself an appreciative look.

"Then according to your words, the richest man in Yuzhou is not related to us, why should he help us?"

"This is the main point I'm just talking about now. Do you know what the old man's last name is?" Zhan Meng sat up suddenly, grabbing Xia Yan's wrist with both hands, "His surname is Xiao."

"Isn't the surname Xiao normal?" Xia Yan replied reflexively. For a moment, a thought flashed in her mind, "You mean my mother has a relationship with him? How is this possible? There are so many people with the surname Xiao in the world. It can't be all related, right?"

"It's impossible. If we trace the source, we still have an ancestor."

The corner of Xia Yan's mouth twitched, "I always think your assumptions are too exaggerated."

"Aren't I imagining this? Is there any exaggerated assumption?" Zhan Meng waved her hand and yawned, "I want to sleep again."

Seeing this, Xia Yan remembered that there was a baby in Zhan Meng's belly, and couldn't help asking, "Is it really decided?"

"Well, since I can't be ruthless, I have no choice but to keep her."

"Tell Ning Xi?"

"What's the use of telling him? He doesn't have me in his heart, and being a single mother is not unacceptable." Zhan Meng said indifferently. Even so, she couldn't help but wonder if her father found out that she was pregnant before marriage. It is estimated that she had to pluck a layer of skin.

Peel a layer of skin?Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this topic, just take one step at a time. This road is full of people. Is it possible that it will lead to a dead end?"

Zhan Meng caught a glimpse of Xia Yan looking at him, and suddenly felt amused, "Don't be so sad, I'm not as fragile as you think, and I really can't think of a reason to persuade myself to tell Ning Xi."

"why?"

"You really have a hundred thousand reasons?" Zhan Meng said jokingly.

******
Tonight, Yuzhou gradually enters the night with a trace of uneasiness, the hustle and bustle of the day fades away, and the tranquility of the night facilitates the tired people to fall asleep.

The empty streets, the leaves rustling by the wind, and the mottled shadows are reflected on the bluestone road, and the gentle orange street lights are on, reflecting it.

As Zhan Meng said, Lu Zhengting did choose the hotel where they stayed, Yuzhou International Hotel.

In the presidential suite, Ning Xilai was unwilling to leave on the sofa, staring at Lu Zhengting who was sitting at the desk, "If you can't find Xia Yan, you will go crazy. If you find Xia Yan, you let her go Outside, it's so calm now."

Without raising his head, Lu Zhengting held a black pen in his bony hand. His gaze fell on a document. With a swipe of the pen, he signed his name at the end. The so-called seeing words is like seeing people, but this sentence It is obviously useless on Lu Zhengting.

His handwriting is particularly smooth, a little crazy, and the font is biased towards cursive, which can be a little scribbled.

Xia Yan was shocked when she saw him writing. At first, she thought that Lu Zhengting would only do this when he signed his own name, but she never thought that his own handwriting was a kind of pleasing to the eye.

Ning Xi rolled away bored, seeing Lu Zhengting completely ignoring him, he asked again, "What are your plans now? Yang Jinkuan and Xia Minghui's people know that Xia Yan is in Yuzhou now, so you are not going to do something? "

"You talk too much."

"You want me to shut up? Then tell me what you're going to do next?"

Finally Lu Zhengting was willing to raise his head, and glanced at Ning Xi indifferently, "Lead the snake out of its hole."

"Leading the snake out of the hole? Are you willing to use Xia Yan as bait?"

"Who said I want to use Xia Yan as bait?" Lu Zhengting frowned.

"Then you? You want to use Zhan Meng as bait?" Ning Xi turned his head, raised his legs and spun around, sat upright on the sofa, and stared fixedly at Lu Zhengting.

"Everyone knows that she is with Xia Yan. Wherever she appears, Xia Yan must be there."

"I don't agree." Ning Xi said angrily, "You can't bear Xia Yan, and I can't bear Zhan Meng."

Hearing this, the corners of Lu Zhengting's mouth raised slightly, but his expression was very serious, "You and her are just ordinary friends, what do you care about so much?"
