Therefore, Lu Yan contacted her employees privately to find evidence and posted it online.

Zhuang Yan's social circle is very clean, and her upbringing is easy to investigate.

Zhuang Yan doesn't need to know about what's happening online, nor does he need to worry about it, because she will help him solve all the troubles. When the time is right, she will find a lawyer to tell him, and then sue those who should be sued. It would be best to send those who spread rumors to solitary confinement one by one, especially Xia Wan.

Lu Yan stared at the red mole on Zhuang Yan's neck: My beloved only needs to be happy. There are people behind him to protect him and ensure his peaceful life.

To avoid misunderstandings, Zhuang Yan put Lu Yan down when they arrived at the courtyard, and then helped her inside.

Fang Chen, with his sharp eyes, was the first to notice: "Lu Yan, what happened to your leg?"

"I tripped and fell on the road, but it's nothing serious, just some medicine will do."

Hearing the noise, Ling Xuan came over and said, "It looks pretty serious. There's a first-aid kit in the room; you can apply some medicine."

Zhuang Yan helped Lu Yan inside to sit down and found a first-aid kit. Jiang Ning took it from her and said, "I'll help her apply the medicine. Go to the kitchen and see if An Xinrong and Fang Chen are cooking today. Neither of them knows how to cook."

"Okay." This was exactly what Zhuang Yan wanted.

Jiang Ning glanced at Zhuang Yan, but this time she didn't cling to him like usual and quickly moved away.

Lu Yan noticed this and looked her over with amusement. She felt that Jiang Ning seemed a little guilty in front of Zhuang Yan today.

Lu Yan didn't let Jiang Ning apply the medicine for her: "It's just a minor injury, I can do it myself."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning handed the cotton swab in her hand to Lu Yan.

Lu Yan used disinfectant instead of iodine, which was more irritating to the wound. Since Zhuang Yan wasn't around, she didn't bother pretending to be weak.

She is not afraid of pain; sometimes she even enjoys the sensory stimulation that pain brings.

Such wounds are nothing to her; when she was a child, much more serious injuries happened frequently.

Zhuang Yan entered the kitchen, where An Xinrong was sitting and tending the fire. Upon seeing Zhuang Yan, she quickly looked away, pursed her lips, and remained silent, blatantly ignoring him.

He wasn't like this this morning, so did he offend her somehow?

Zhuang Yan didn't take the initiative to speak, adhering to the principle that it's better to avoid trouble. Fang Chen had already prepared the dishes and was just waiting for him to cook them.

"Turn up the heat; these dishes taste better when stir-fried."

An Xinrong still ignored him, but instead added firewood to the wood-burning stove.

Zhuang Yan added, "Stay away, or the oil might splatter and burn you."

An Xinrong obediently stood up and moved away. Although she didn't make a sound, she was much better behaved than usual and didn't mutter any unpleasant words.

But the sudden quiet is quite unsettling.

If Zhuang Yan really upset her, given Miss An's temper, she wouldn't tolerate it at all. She would start cursing directly, roll her eyes without caring about her image, and ignore his words completely, refusing to listen to him at all.

Since the problem isn't with him, what happened to An Xinrong that caused her to become like this?
