Mommy, the wealthy daddy has come to propose again.

Bai Ning blinked: "Then why did you give the White Jade Bottle to him? What if he can't get it back?"

Master Tang San is a well-known black businessman in the circle. Countless treasures have fallen into his hands, and once they are taken by him, they can basically be not taken back. Bai Ning is worried that the White Jade Bottle will also be swallowed by him, wouldn't that be too easy for this old fox!

"You have to be thorough in your performance. When you give gifts, you have to give real gifts. That way, you won't arouse suspicion."

Lan Qichen's eyes were full of confidence, and he said, "Don't worry, I'm here, no accidents will happen, I will definitely get it back. You know, I will never let my enemies take advantage of me."

Bai Ning's heart finally settled down. She believed in Lan Qichen's ability to do things. Although he was young, he was no less scheming than those old guys. He was able to win step by step in the turbulent business circle and support the entire Lan family single-handedly. He was very capable.

"Well, I believe you."

She held his hand back, and the two of them held each other tightly, her palms burning like a beating heart.

The auction ended and the guests left one after another. Lan Qichen kept his eyes fixed on Mr. Tang San's back, determined not to lose him.

They were only about five meters apart, which ensured that the other party would not disappear from their sight. There were so many people at the scene, and it would be difficult to find them if they were lost.

However, just as he was going down the stairs, Lan Qichen's arm was violently bumped by someone. He instinctively hugged Bai Ning into his arms to protect him. After he stabilized his body and came down, Master Tang San had already disappeared into the crowd.

"Are you okay?"

Lan Qichen wrapped his arms around Bai Ning and carefully protected her under his body to avoid being hit.

Thinking back, it seemed as if the man had bumped into me on purpose. The huge impact force on my back almost made me stumble and fall. Fortunately, I was able to stabilize myself with the help of the wall.

"I am fine."

Bai Ning shook his head and immediately stood on tiptoe to look for Master Tang San. What came into view was a bustling crowd. Everyone was wearing a mask, and there was more than one old man with gray hair, Master Tang San. It was impossible to tell which one was him just by looking at his back.

She looked a little frustrated and said dejectedly, "We lost him. We finally caught up with him. What should we do now?"

She couldn't help but feel annoyed. If Lan Qichen hadn't protected her in the first reaction, would Master Tang San have been out of his sight?

"It's okay. If you lose him, think of another way to get closer to him. You should know that there are always more ways than problems. Don't blame yourself too much. I'm glad you're okay."

Lan Qichen walked out holding Bai Ning's hand tightly to prevent himself from losing her. To her, no one was more important than her. Even ten Tang Sanye were not as important as Bai Ning's safety.

Every autumn and winter, her hands and feet were often cold. Lan Qichen used the warmth from his palms to melt the ice in her little hands bit by bit.

Bai Ning followed him obediently, looking up at his profile, which was thin and smooth, but still handsome. Perhaps it was because she was too tired from investigating the events of the past, and she had been away for a while, so she lost her appetite and couldn't sleep all night because of missing him, so she lost a lot of weight all of a sudden.

Thinking of this, Bai Ning felt a little sorry for Lan Qichen, as he had caused him to lose ten pounds of weight. After this matter was settled, he would definitely cook for it himself to make up for it.

Arriving outside the auction house, Bai Ning took off his mask and asked, "Qi Chen, where are we going now?"

The mask was made of metal and was heavy. It felt quite weighty when worn on her face. If it had not been for the concern of exposing her identity, she would have wanted to take it off a long time ago. After wearing it for so long, there were several obvious marks on her face when she took it off.

Lan Qichen's hand gently brushed across her beautiful face and said, "Of course I'll go home and think of another solution. As for this white jade bottle, give it to Grandpa. Didn't you say he had another one in his antique room? They'll make a perfect pair."
