The canary of the reborn paranoid boss is so delicate

Chapter 74 The mastermind behind the scenes

Xu Yan is not slandering her alma mater, nor is she slandering the teaching profession. She just sees people's hearts too clearly.

She vented her anger on Xu Lan and had already thought of a way out. She didn't want to cause such a big fuss, but in the end Xu Yan changed her mind.

Now it depends on what Xu Lan chooses.

"Yes, will it be troublesome?" Xu Lan asked.

Xu Yan thought for a while and said: "Actually, there is another way. Instead of going to school, study directly at home. Then you can go directly to the college entrance examination. Anyway, most of the senior year is review. Then I will hire a tutor at home for you. Study, no one has bothered you yet.”

When Xu Lan heard this, his eyes instantly brightened, and it seemed that he liked this proposal more than transferring schools.

Xu Yan naturally saw what she was thinking, and then said: "But this is a bit troublesome."

Xu Lan lowered her eyelids and was about to say forget it, but she heard Xu Yan change her words and said: "But this matter is just a trivial matter to your brother-in-law."

"Brother-in-law?" Xu Lan shouted blankly.

Lin Xiao, who was silent at the side, opened his eyes. The expression on his face remained unchanged, but the slight movement of his little finger revealed his emotions.

He tilted his head and looked at the two completely different pairs of eyes staring at him.

Xu Yan was smiling, while Xu Lan was looking forward to it and nervous.

"Brother-in-law, can you help me with this?" Xu Yan said teasingly.

Lin Xiao squeezed Xu Yan's hand and said with her smiling eyes, "Yeah."

Xu Yan turned her head and said to Xu Lan: "Look, your brother-in-law agreed, don't worry."

"Thank you, brother-in-law." Xu Lan looked at Lin Xiao and said sincerely.

Lin Xiao responded softly: "Yes."

Xu Yan looked at Lin Xiao's reaction and couldn't help but chuckle.

After laughing, she looked at Xu Lan and said, "Tell me what happened yesterday again. Don't add your subjective impressions, just state the facts."

Although Xu Lan didn't know why Xu Yan asked her to tell her things again, she still said it obediently and followed Xu Yan's request.

After hearing this, Xu Yan just nodded, indicating that she understood, and then said to Xu Lan: "Remember to tell your mother about your suspension from school. As for what you say, that is your own business."

Xu Lan nodded and the car drove to the gate of the community. Xu Lan got out of the car. Xu Yan was about to get out of the car when Lin Xiao grabbed her.

Then he said to Xu Yan: "The person has been found."

Having left the leather seat and sat down again, Xu Yan closed the car door and said to Xu Lan outside through the car window: "You go back first, let's go do something, you don't have to wait for us to eat."

"Yeah, okay." Xu Lan didn't ask what they were going to do, but just nodded obediently.

Then he watched the car leave.

Xu Yan asked Lin Xiao: "Where did you find the person?"

Lin Xiao said: "A residential house."

The residential houses Lin Xiao was talking about were old abandoned houses on the side of the road.

The ruins are in ruins and the walls are crumbling.

People are blocked inside, and the house has a small courtyard, and there is a wall outside the small courtyard.

Xu Yan got out of the car and entered the yard with Lin Xiao.

There were five or six burly men standing in the yard. Although they were wearing ordinary clothes, an insider could tell at a glance that these people were definitely professionally trained.

"Sir." One of the men came over and addressed Lin Xiao respectfully.

After calling Lin Xiao, he looked at Xu Yan aside and addressed her with the same respectful expression: "Miss Xu."

"You know me?" Xu Yan was surprised.

The man chuckled and said, "We are all Mr.'s, so naturally we know Miss."

Only then did Xu Yan confirm that these people were indeed not ordinary people.

She and Lin Xiao came back temporarily.

They only arrived last night. These people have already appeared in the town today, maybe they came last night.

"Where are the people?" Lin Xiao asked.

The man said: "It's in the house, there's no trial yet."

Lin Xiao turned to look at Xu Yan and asked, "Want to go in and take a look?"

Xu Yan nodded: "Yes." Otherwise she wouldn't have come together.

Walking through the courtyard into the main room, there is a slightly musty smell in the air.

Apparently no one has lived there for a long time.

Go into the innermost room. The room was very dark.

The man who followed them in said: "No one has lived here for a long time. Although the wiring is normal, the light bulbs have long been broken, but we have made preparations."

As he said this, he shouted to someone: "Turn on the light."

Then for a moment a bright light came on in the room.

Xu Yan closed her eyes with some discomfort, and her eyes were covered with hands.

Lin Xiao's voice rang in his ears: "Open your eyes slowly and get used to the light first."

Xu Yan adapted to the bright light, opened her eyes completely, and took off Lin Xiao's hand.

He also saw clearly the environment in front of him, a closed room.

There were no windows, and the walls and floor were pitch black.

There was a wire hanging from the roof, and a huge light bulb hung on the wire.

The lightbulb was very bright, illuminating the room.

In the middle of the room, a man with unshaven beard and dirty body was lying on the ground.

His hands and feet were tied up, and a bandage was tied over his mouth.

Black cloth was also tied over his eyes.

The man who brought them in explained: "I was afraid that he would yell, so I kept my mouth shut." He said it as a matter of course, as if it was just a common little thing.

This is indeed just a small thing for him.

Xu Yan walked into the house, and as soon as she took a step out, Lin Xiao grabbed her wrist.

Xu Yan knew that he was worried about her, so she patted his hand and said nothing.

Lin Xiao let go of his hand and Xu Yan walked in. She looked at the man who wanted to struggle but couldn't.

Xu Yan has never met Xu Lan's biological father, but since he was captured by Lin Xiao's men, there should be nothing wrong.

Xu Yan originally wanted to remove the strips from the man's eyes, but after thinking about it, she still didn't do it.

Xu Yan stood up, walked back to Lin Xiao, and then said to him, "Is there a way to make him speak?"

Lin Xiao looked at Xu Yan, his eyes changing slightly.

Xu Yan did not pretend to be mysterious, but said directly: "There may be someone else behind him."

Lin Xiao nodded and pulled her out: "Then take her back to Haicheng."

"Well, let's go back tonight." Xu Yan said.

Lin Xiao said: "Don't worry." He was comforting Xu Yan.

Xu Yan thought for a while and said, "Then go back tomorrow and take Lan Lan with you."

"Okay." Lin Xiao replied.

They got into the car, but the car didn't start immediately. Lin Xiao asked the driver to get out of the car, leaving only the two of them in the car.

Lin Xiao faced Xu Yan and asked, "How did you know there was someone behind him?"

Xu Yan said: "His behavior is very wrong. After he was released from prison for several years, even if he wanted to find his ex-wife and daughter immediately, if he found them, he would not take them away so rashly. Even if there was no plan, but It shouldn’t be done in front of so many people.”

“And his sentence should be 15 years, but now the sentence has not yet expired, either he was released early, or someone operated.

Judging from his reckless behavior yesterday, I am more inclined to the second point. Rather than coming to take away his ex-wife and daughter, it was more like he was here to attract attention.

But whose attention does he want to attract? You can check why it was released early and how it got here? Have you had any contact with anyone before coming here? "

Lin Xiao listened to Xu Yan's analysis, and then said: "You just listened to Xu Lan's narration, and that's all you thought of?"

Xu Yan came back to her senses from the analysis, then looked at Lin Xiao and said with a hint of anxiety: "Maybe I'm thinking too much."

Lin Xiao said: "Not much, something is indeed wrong."

Xu Yan touched her chin and said, "Who is going to such trouble and what is the purpose?"

"Declaration of war." Lin Xiao spit out two words.

Xu Yan was confused: "Declaring war? To you?"

Lin Xiao said: "Yanyan, don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one will hurt you."

Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, I believe you." But there was still a hint of worry in her expression.

Lin Xiao knew what she was worried about and said, "We can pick up uncle and aunt together."

Xu Yan sighed: "I'm afraid it's not that easy. I don't want to tell them. If they know, they will be worried. But if we don't tell them the truth, they may not come with us."

"Then don't leave." Lin Xiao said, "I will stay with some people, and they will be responsible for the safety of my uncle and aunt."

"But what if..." Xu Yan was worried.

Lin Xiao said: "Don't worry, I may already know who it is. Since he has declared war, I will give him a big gift when I get back."

"Do you already know who it is?" Xu Yan asked.

Lin Xiao said: "I sent someone to check on Zhou Xiang last night. Someone indeed helped him, including telling him the address here and the purpose of letting him come here."

Xu Yan was surprised. He thought he had guessed the truth behind the matter quickly, but he didn't expect that Lin Xiao had already known it.

And he was carrying her behind his back, as if he had already made arrangements.

If the safety of her father and stepmother could be absolutely guaranteed, Xu Yan would not want them to be involved in these things.

After all, my father and stepmother are just ordinary people. They deal with daily necessities for the sake of keeping the family safe.

Their peaceful life should not be disrupted.

After a day of hard work, they had breakfast. It was already afternoon. They returned to town and went straight home.

After returning home, Xu Yan looked at Zhang Qin's expression and knew that Xu Lan had told Zhang Qin about not going to school.

Judging from Zhang Qin's expression, she seemed to be unwilling. She looked at Xu Yan, her expression hesitant to speak.

Xu Yan knew that he had something to say to her, so she asked Lin Xiao to wait for her in the living room.

Then he took Zhang Qin back to the master bedroom. In the master bedroom, Xu's father was lying on the bed to rest.

But he was not asleep at the moment, and he had no doubts when he saw the two of them coming in. He seemed to already know their next conversation.

Lin Xiao was sitting in the living room, holding his cell phone and not knowing who he was sending a message to.

"Sister, brother-in-law, let's drink tea." Xu Lan took out a cup of tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao raised his head, with cold eyes, glanced at Xu Lan, then at the tea cup, and responded in a cold tone: "Yes."

Xu Lan endured her panic and sat on the sofa on the other side. If she hadn't been waiting for the news, she would have gone back to the house by now.

Her brother-in-law looked handsome, but he gave off the impression that he was handsome. Like a knife, you will get scratched by it if you are not careful.

He unconsciously treats me with caution when I'm around him.

But such a person looks different in front of another person, only in front of that person.
