Chapter 219 Finale

Three years later.

The wind is whistling outside the window, and the world is covered with snow. It is winter again.

The huge Yuhe Mansion was decorated with red window decorations and couplets, and the atmosphere was festive to welcome the New Year.

Outside in the snow, a small yellow figure was holding a large bunch of firecrackers and arranging them neatly on the snow.

He was dressed warmly and had a furry woolen hat on his head, revealing his fair and tender little face that was red from the cold.

"Grandpa Quan, come here quickly!"

Xiao Anxian waved to Li Quan, who was still helping him take apart the firecrackers in the house. Li Quan hurried over, leaving a trail of footprints in the snow.

Li Quan accompanied him as they set up the fireworks, and asked, "Xianxian, what are you doing with all these firecrackers?"

"Put them here and set them off later." Xiao Anxian arranged the firecrackers neatly. "Dad said that Mom didn't sleep well last night, so we can't set off firecrackers now to wake her up."

"Xianxian, you're awesome!" Li Quan touched his woolen hat and saw a butterfly hairpin sticking out of his pocket. He asked with a smile, "Xianxian, who is this little butterfly in your pocket for?"

"This is my New Year's gift to Xiaomi." Xiao Anxian answered seriously.

Xiaomi is his classmate. She has a round face with two pigtails and looks as cute as a little mushroom.

An Xian likes her very much and always gives her gifts.

He prepared this New Year's gift for a long time.

He served tea and water to his parents, and rubbed their shoulders and backs when they were tired from work, and was rewarded handsomely for it.

He took the reward and carefully selected a bow hairpin for Xiaomi. It was decorated with sparkling pink diamonds and looked particularly beautiful.

upstairs.

There were footsteps outside the bedroom.

When Lu Xiyan pushed the door open, An Ning had just woken up. She sat up against the headboard and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

She looked at the person who came in dazedly, and smiled with her eyes curved, "Good morning, husband."

Lu Xiyan was wearing a beige sweater, which matched his skin tone very well and made him look particularly warm in this winter.

He sat on the edge of the bed, his fingertips rubbing the dark circles under her eyes, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

She hasn't slept well for many days and has been busy with book signing events.

Over the past three years, she has delved deeply into nutrition science, generating data that has resonated widely in the industry. She used this data to compile a nutrition book, which received rave reviews online and was subsequently published.

After the book was published, it sold very well. She even bought more than 100,000 copies of the book out of her own pocket and sent them to poor mountainous areas across the country, giving them away free of charge to local children and adults.

I've been busy with book signings these days, and my hands are cramping just from signing autographs.

I finished my work last night and had a long sleep.

Lu Xiyan thought she would sleep until the afternoon, but she woke up before noon.

"I had a dream."

An Ning rubbed her eyes, and her vision gradually became clear.

"What did you dream about?" Lu Xiyan asked gently.

"I dreamt of a little girl, about four or five years old. When she was playing outside, someone suddenly covered her mouth and carried her away, and put her into a black car."

An Ning frowned slightly as she spoke, "That girl seemed like me. I desperately called for help in my dream, but no sound came out. I wanted to escape, but I couldn't open that dark car door."

"Then what?"

"Then..." An Ning thought carefully, "Then the car drove to somewhere unknown. I heard the sound of rain outside the car and the voice of a man talking. Not long after, the car stopped. It seemed that there was something wrong with the car and it needed to be repaired."

"I took advantage of them opening the car door to get the tools and jumped out of the car and ran away."

"It was indeed raining outside the car, and the road under my feet was muddy. I ran and ran, running as hard as I could. They kept chasing me, chasing me very closely. I was about to lose them and was almost caught by them..."

She suddenly grabbed the sheets tightly, as if the dream had just happened.

"Just as their hands were about to grab my clothes, I suddenly slipped and rolled down the muddy ground. I kept rolling and rolling, and my whole body was covered in mud. The weeds scratched my skin."

"In the end, I didn't know where I ended up, and the men didn't find me and just drove away."

"I just lay in the mud in the pouring rain, waiting for no one to rescue me."

Lu Xiyan held her hand in his palm and asked distressedly, "What happened next? Did anyone come?"

"Yes." An Ning said, "It's a man."

She suddenly looked at Lu Xiyan, her eyes serious, "It's Chen Laosi."

A dream filled in the blank memory of her five-year-old year.

She finally understood why she, who was from Qichuan, was picked up from Dianhai by Chen Laosi.

She was abducted from Qichuan's home to Dianhai by human traffickers.

If it weren't for that escape, she would probably have been dead by now.

If you fall into the hands of those human traffickers, you will either die or be crippled.

......

The latest current affairs news was playing in the large living room.

【OncoThera Labs Medical Company's new drug is on the market: the miracle behind cancer patients——

OncoThera Labs successfully went public just three years after its establishment, becoming a leading international precision medicine oncology company. Over the past three years, OncoThera Labs has invested $1 billion to develop the world's first drug that can fight cancer cells.

The results of a two-year human clinical trial showed that the drug cured cancer cells with a data of up to 99.9%. In clinical trials, patients who used this type of drug were completely cured of their disease after receiving standard treatment and did not relapse.

The successful development of OncoThera Labs' new drug is a miracle in the oncology field and a blessing for countless cancer patients!

It's reported that Lu Xiyan, the newly appointed head of the Lu Group, is the president and CEO of OncoThera Labs. The top decision-maker behind OncoThera Labs is Lu Xiyan's wife, An Ning, also a popular and best-selling nutritionist.

The powerful combination of husband and wife is bound to reach new heights in the medical field and create a new medical legend internationally!

Outside the window, heavy snow is falling.

The sparks outside the house ignited firecrackers, and the crackling sound was mixed with the happy laughter of children.

Inside, flames danced in the fireplace and the air was warm.

An Ning stood by the window holding a cup of hot tea, curling her lips as she watched An Xian running around the garden.

Suddenly, her shoulders felt heavy and a cashmere shawl fell on them.

Turning around, he met Lu Xiyan's smiling eyes.

He handed over a red envelope and said, "Happy New Year, my wife."

An Ning took it. The red envelope was not thick, but very thin.

"Mr. Lu is so stingy?" She pretended to wrinkle her nose. "It's not just a coin, is it?"

Lu Xiyan took the water cup from her hand and said with a smile, "Then open it and take a look."

An Ning opened the red envelope and slowly took it out.

It's a few sheets of letter paper.

She unfolded the paper, and it was not Lu Xiyan's handwriting.

The last page of the letter was written by Lu Lixiao.

"Grandpa said he owed you an apology. This is his handwritten letter of apology. He actually wrote it three years ago, and he said he would give it to you when he abdicated. What he meant was that at this time, he was no longer the powerful chairman of the Lu Group, but just an ordinary, elderly grandfather."

And this ordinary old grandfather wanted to gain her forgiveness sincerely.

"He bought you a manor in the southern suburbs. He knew you were soft-hearted and sponsored many children in the mountains. He also helped many abducted children."

"He said you could start an orphanage on the estate if you wanted."

An Ning looked at the vigorous handwriting on the paper, reading it word by word.

In the past few years, they also went back to the old house to see Lu Lixiao. Most of the time, it was Lu Xiyan who chatted with him, and An Ning occasionally had a few brief conversations with him. They were not distant, but not close either.

The same was true when interacting with the Cheng family. Cheng Shao and Han Yun often came to see her and An Xian. Although they no longer mentioned the matter of returning to their ancestral home, An Ning's attitude towards them was always polite and courteous, yet a little distant.

Three years have passed, and many things seem to have faded away with time.

In these three years, An Xian has grown up, and his growth is pure and beautiful.

Although her career is busy, her heart is rich and fulfilled.

Lu Xiyan is busier, but he has plenty of time to spend with her and An Xian.

Her relationship with Lu Xiyan is stable and sweet.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that something is missing in the aspect of family affection.

An Ning finished reading the letter and folded the paper.

She raised her eyes and asked with a smile, "What are we having for dinner?"

"Uncle Quan asked the kitchen to prepare hot pot." Lu Xiyan raised his hand and scratched the tip of her nose. "Don't you like hot pot the most in winter?"

"Hotpot tastes better with more people," An Ning said, smiling as she took his arm. "Let's get Grandpa over here, along with Uncle Cheng and Aunt Han, so we can celebrate the New Year together."

"Okay." Lu Xiyan lowered his head and kissed her hair, "As long as you are willing."

"Xiyan." She looked up. "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year, Ningning."

"What year is next year?"

"This is our tenth year together."
