Chapter 148 Lu Xiyan: It turns out I have no name or status

It is certainly a good thing that this hard-to-obtain patent can be used free of charge, but how easy is it to help Jiang Pei and his wife, and Kong Yiyun and his wife find their long-lost daughter?

"How can I find him in this vast sea of ​​people?"

In the restaurant, An Ning propped up her chin with a worried look on her face. "Twenty-three years ago, Internet coverage wasn't as widespread as it is now. Aunt Jiang said that Professor Jiang and his wife even reported the case to no avail."

"So many years have passed, and I don't know how that girl is doing now. It's hard to say whether she is still in China."

She sighed. News about human trafficking was everywhere. Children were being abducted almost every moment in unknown places.

Jiang Xiaoshan also said that there were many people who coveted the medical achievements of Professor Jiang and his wife at that time. In order to protect her daughter, she did not even take a photo of her when she was a child.

This is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Seeing that she looked so worried that she had no appetite for lunch, Lu Xiyan smiled and said, "But it's better to have conditions to negotiate than not to have them at all. As long as the conditions are set, there's a chance that they can be met."

His gentle smile was filled with calm confidence. An Ning loved his calm attitude, which seemed to be able to solve any problem without any surprise.

She hurriedly asked, "Xi Yan, do you have any way to find out?"

"I can't guarantee that I can find it, but I can try." Lu Xiyan slowly put a piece of fresh fish into her bowl, "Eat first."

Just then, An Ning's phone rang.

She picked up her phone, glanced at Lu Xiyan, and answered the video call.

"mom?"

"An Ning, are you eating out?" Li Chunfang was packing up at home on the other end of the phone. She glanced at her dining area and said, "Is this the restaurant arranged by the company? It looks pretty good. Are you used to it?"

"Yeah, it's arranged by the company." An Ning glanced at Lu Xiyan who was slowly picking up the water glass. "It's okay, the food is delicious."

"If it's delicious, eat more. Don't starve yourself when you're out." Li Chunfang asked again, "I see you're quite quiet there. Are you alone, or with colleagues?"

An Ning turned on the loudspeaker, and Li Chunfang's words happened to be heard by Lu Xiyan. He slowly poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of An Ning.

"Follow..." An Ning glanced at Lu Xiyan and happened to meet his gaze.

"With a colleague." An Ning was afraid that Li Chunfang would ask her something, so she asked hurriedly, "Mom, what's the matter with you calling me?"

"It's nothing serious. I have to take Xianxian to get vaccinated today. I just wanted to ask you where his vaccination book is."

Li Chunfang added, "After I get him vaccinated, I'll send some things over to your brother this afternoon. He's staying in school this summer, and I'm worried he might need something."

"Oh, the vaccination book is in the second drawer at the bottom of my wardrobe, next to his birth certificate." An Ning said, then asked, "Has Xianxian been behaving well these days?"

"He knows you're on a business trip for work, not just for fun, so he's been pretty good. He even asked you to bring him a big toy when you come back." Li Chunfang said with a smile, "Okay, I won't disturb you and your colleagues having dinner. I'll pack up and take him out."

After hanging up the phone, An Ning noticed a pair of resentful eyes looking at her.

She looked up and met that alluring gaze, which contained a hint of scrutiny.

"So I'm a colleague?"

Lu Xiyan spoke slowly, his voice neither loud nor soft.

But An Ning heard a hint of sour dissatisfaction.

"No, I was just saying it to my mom, I—"

Before An Ning could finish her explanation, she was interrupted again.

"I chased you from Jinghai to Qichuan, and accompanied you to eat, sleep and work, but in the end I have no name or status, just a colleague."

Lu Xiyan sighed, lowered his eyes, and stared at An Ning with resentment, "You are really irresponsible."

He looked so pitiful, especially with such a bullied and complaining expression on his perfect and handsome face, which made people feel distressed.

An Ning felt like she was being pinched, and she quickly said, "I'm sorry, I'm really just trying to please my mom. You know how she is. If she knew I was having dinner with you, she would definitely ask a lot of questions, maybe even about everything that happened in the past few years."

An Ning was afraid that he wouldn't believe her, so she took his hand that was on the table and held it tightly. Then she looked into his beautiful eyes and softened her voice, "We are still in Qichuan, and there are some things that are hard to tell her. I promise you, when we go back, I will definitely tell my mother about our relationship and give you a legitimate status again, okay?"

Lu Xiyan raised an eyebrow and deliberately asked, "What's the relationship, what's the status?"

"You can have whatever you want." An Ning agreed readily.

Whether it's a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship or a husband-wife relationship, Lu Xiyan is willing to be with her in any relationship.

As for whether Mr. Lu recognized her or not, she didn't care.

Even if she never entered the Lu family in her life, as long as Lu Xiyan loved her, she would be happy with it.

"Okay." Lu Xiyan finally smiled with satisfaction, "Once you've agreed, you can't cheat."

He met An Ning's gentle gaze and thought to himself that he couldn't let her be with him in such an unclear way.

He also has to give this title to An Ning.

"But you just reminded me." Lu Xiyan put away his previous complaining look and looked normal. "Starting with the child's birth certificate, maybe we can find some clues."

......

In the afternoon, colleagues in the R&D department found a temporary studio to work in, and An Ning took her notebook and materials to the meeting.

Lu Xiyan left his turned-off phone in the hotel, went out to buy a new phone, changed a new phone card, and made a call.

The phone rang for a long time before someone answered it.

"Who?"

"It's me."

As soon as Lu Xiyan opened his mouth, a bomb-like voice exploded from the other side.

"Lu Xiyan? Are you crazy? Are you running away from your marriage?"

Liang Xu's voice was almost shattering his eardrums. "Do you know that if your PR department hadn't released a piece of news at the right time, Jinghai would be in turmoil now! Your phone is turned off, and no one in the company can reach you. You don't even answer our calls. Are you planning to flee the Earth?"

Lu Xiyan held the phone further away until the other party finished speaking, then he spoke, "I won't be back these few days, can you help me investigate something?"

"What the hell is this investigation?" Liang Xu exploded. "Are you really planning on leaving Earth? If you don't come back, your grandfather will kill you right away! I heard Cheng Wanwan was so angry that she was admitted to the hospital. The Cheng family is going to have a falling out this day!"

"That's none of your business." Lu Xiyan said calmly, "Are you going to investigate or not?"

"Investigate! You're my ancestor!" Liang Xu was so angry that he had no other choice. "Just tell me what you want to investigate, Mr. Lu."

Lu Xiyan said a few words briefly, and then emphasized, "Give me the results before tonight."

Liang Xu exploded again when he heard this, "No, Lu Xiyan, you can be a nobody, but you have to treat me like one!"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Xiyan simply hung up the phone.
