Chapter 140 Encounter with Yan Xiu

"I'm sorry, uncle."

Xie Wantang was about to apologize on behalf of Xiao Chengzi, but before he could say anything, he looked up and saw Yan Xiu's face that looked very similar to Lu Yanze. In his ear, Xiao Chengzi quickly apologized to Yan Xiu.

If Xie Wantang hadn't known in advance about the existence of Yan Xiu, he would have definitely thought that he was Lu Yanze, exactly the same.

However, during the three years she was at the Lu family, she never seemed to see Lu Yanze smile, but Yan Xiu was always smiling.

At this time, Yan Xiu heard Xiao Chengzi's apology. He squatted down and responded to Xiao Chengzi's apology very gently, "It's okay, little friend. It's uncle's fault. I didn't look at the road myself. It's not your fault."

"We are both at fault. Uncle is an adult. I will buy you a new cake to compensate you, okay?"

Little Orange shook his head and refused, "Thank you, uncle. No thanks, this cake is still edible."

Little Orange is so well-behaved and sensible.

Seeing that Xiao Chengzi refused his request to compensate him for the cake, Yan Xiu did not force it. He stood up and looked at Xie Wantang, "Miss Xie, you are really good at teaching children."

"Thank you, Mr. Yan. Your compliments are unbelievable."

In the past two years, she has been an incompetent mother, not at all competent, and has never taken care of the child for a single day.

I just spent a short time with them during my vacation.

The child is so great, it’s not her credit as a mother.

Yan Xiu looked at Dongdong. Dongdong looked at Yan Xiu's face in confusion and looked into his eyes. He was a little surprised, but did not show any fear.

Xie Wantang guessed that Dongdong's reaction could only mean that Lu Yanze had never hurt Dongdong before his death, and that children's reactions were the most direct.

Yan Xiu also felt quite unfamiliar when he saw Dongdong, as if they had never met each other before.

You know, when Dongdong was young, he could enter and leave the Lu family at any time with Xia Meng.

Therefore, if Yan Xiu were Lu Yanze, he would not have no reaction to Dongdong.

"Ms. Xie is so young, yet she already has three children?" Yan Xiu said in shock.

"The eldest is a friend's orphan, and I adopted him." Xie Wantang did not explain much.

"I see. No wonder Miss Xie said she had to take care of the child and wouldn't be available after five o'clock. Okay, then I won't keep you from taking care of the child. We'll see you tomorrow at noon."

"Okay, Mr. Yan, goodbye."

"Uncle, goodbye." Little Orange followed Yan Xiu and waved goodbye.

"Goodbye, little friend. Uncle owes you a cake. Next time we meet and you happen to want to eat it again, uncle will definitely return it to you."

"Thank you, uncle. It's really not necessary. You don't have to take it to heart." Xiao Chengzi firmly refused again.

"good."

Yan Xiu watched the four of them, mother and children, leave, then bought some things and left the cake shop as well.

Xie Wantang didn't take this little episode to heart.

However, in the evening, she still reported this little episode to Shen Ye.

They are now an organization, and if they meet each other, they naturally have to report to their superiors.

Now, Shen Ye is not only her senior brother, but also the leader of their action team.

"It's such a coincidence that I meet you by chance while buying a cake." Chen Ye always has more ideas.

In his opinion, chance encounters do happen between people, but too many chance encounters or too many coincidences are not good things.

"I think you shouldn't go to lunch tomorrow. Wait until I get there and we'll discuss it." Shen Ye said. He was still worried about Xie Wantang's safety.

"When you arrive, we can discuss it carefully. Then people will definitely know and I will suspect them." Xie Wantang thought this was a bad idea.

"So you want to act alone?"

"I have the ability to protect myself."

"No, if you really want to go, let me make some arrangements." Chen Ye knew that Xie Wantang was still quite stubborn in some aspects. Since he couldn't persuade her, he would let her go, but he had to take some measures.

"Big Brother, please don't be so nervous, okay?" Xie Wantang felt that Chen Ye was too nervous. At the same time, she also knew that it is better to be safe than sorry.

But she had analyzed Yan Xiu.

He wants the Lu Group to enter the pharmaceutical field. Since he has already made it public, he will not directly break off relations unless it is absolutely necessary.

So, at least, she would be safe during tomorrow's lunch.

"I have to be nervous. Your safety is the most important thing. I told you not to choose criminal investigation, but you refused to listen. There are so many options, why did you insist on doing this..."

Before Shen Ye finished speaking, Xie Wantang didn't want to listen anymore.

"Big Brother, the kids are looking for me. I'm going to hang up now."

Shen Ye: "..."

Oh, don't use your children as an excuse.

She simply didn't want to listen to his nagging.

Forget it, he knew what kind of personality Xie Wantang had when he was a child.

Who can change her decision?

Just go, Shen Ye called Su Yang.

At that time, after Lu Chen disappeared and there was no hope at all, Pei Xiao, Su Nianchu and Su Yang told him that if either he or Xie Wantang needed their help in the future, they could ask for it at any time.

Xie Wantang naturally wouldn't tell them this, but now, he had to.

Who made him unable to appear beside Xie Wantang immediately when he was abroad?

Pei Xiao is currently the vice president of Pei Group. Although he is far away in Beijing, he cannot help from a distant source.

As for Su Nianchu, she recently won a grand prize in a design competition, and she is becoming more and more famous in the design world.

Like him, they are all abroad, which is even further away.

Finally, only Su Yang was left.

Su Yang was in Hai City and had always been there, so after Chen Ye made the request, Su Yang agreed without saying a word.

Shen Ye felt a little relieved.

Xie Wantang hung up the phone, took out King's previous notes, and reviewed them for the third time.

When Professor Wu passed away, he left a will, in which all of King's notes were given to Xie Wantang, and all his property was left to LC Technology Company.

Xie Wantang was very satisfied with Professor Wu's arrangement.

She didn't lack money, she just lacked King's notes.

She treated King's notes as a treasure and had read them twice in their entirety. Each time she finished reading them, she gained a profound understanding.

Now, facing the appearance of Yan Xiu, her mind was in a mess again. King's notes could help her wake up from the chaos.

Xie Wantang had just turned two pages when there was a knock on the study door. Then, Xiao Chengzi's voice came through the door, "Mom, we're going to sleep. Can you tell us a bedtime story?"

"good."

Xie Wantang agreed and put King's notes away.

Xie Wantang opened the door to the study and entered the room. She took the storybook that Dongdong handed over and waited until the three children were in their respective positions before she began to tell the story:

"A big bad wolf, hungry and thirsty, was looking for food everywhere. He looked here and there but found nothing. Suddenly, ..."
