Chapter 225 How is that possible!

Seeing Director Qin's face stiffen instantly, Lin Yan'an continued with a grin, "I video chatted with my grandfather yesterday and found out they're already at my mother-in-law's house."

"There's a haunted house resort project near Wanwan's house, it's still under construction, you know."

Lin Yan settled down and looked at Director Qin's unusually cheerful expression. Her busy mood instantly improved: "They are also very interested in that project. They said they want to be among the first batch of experience officers and spend the New Year there to experience a different kind of New Year's atmosphere."

Director Qin: "..."

He instantly felt his blood pressure rise.

His father just quietly went to someone else's house to celebrate the New Year?!

He's going to be among the first to experience a haunted house? What the hell?! Can his blood pressure handle that?!

Zhong Wan was also instantly shocked.

She instinctively turned to look at Lin Yan'an, blinking incredulously, her eyes asking: Really? How come she didn't know anything about this?!

Lin Yan'an smiled and nodded at her, then squeezed her little hand to signal her to calm down.

Then, looking at Director Qin, he continued with a smile, "Uncle, that's great. You won't have to steal a moment to go back and have a meal with the old man during the New Year."

He paused, observed Director Qin's face darken instantly, and continued with satisfaction, "The two old gentlemen are probably having a great time right now and don't have time to pay attention to us."

"But it's not a big problem. When I'm on vacation and we go back, we can play with them."

"If you want to show your filial piety, perhaps you could go to Wanwan's hometown... and bump into her by chance."

After saying that, Lin Yan'an seemed to remember something and quickly added, "Oh right, that haunted house... there were real ghosts there, you know."

Director Qin: "..."

He took a deep breath, trying to maintain his composure, but the twitching corners of his mouth betrayed his inner turmoil.

Especially seeing Lin Yan'an's expression, she finally couldn't help but glare at him and said irritably, "Alright, I know."

After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry without waiting for their reply. His long strides made it seem as if he was fleeing in a panic.

Especially seeing him take out his phone while walking...

This was the first time Zhong Wan had ever seen Director Qin so out of control.

She turned to look at Lin Yan'an, whose eyes were full of smiles, and couldn't help but chuckle as well.

While laughing, Zhong Wan asked, "Is Grandpa really at my house now? When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Lin Yan'an shrugged: "I just found out too."

"Um?"

Seeing Zhong Wan's puzzled expression, Lin Yan'an smiled and said, "Mom called me yesterday morning."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan was even more shocked. She quickly asked, "Did Mom call you? What did she say?"

That's her own mother! Why didn't she even call her?!

"Um,"

Lin Yan'an's voice was much lighter: "Mom said the family is preparing for the New Year, and asked me what I like to eat so she can prepare more. She also asked me when I'll have my holiday."

"I heard my grandfather's voice when I was talking to my mother, and that's when I found out that when Zhong Yang went back, my mother asked him to bring the old man over with him."

Zhong Wan glanced at Lin Yan'an, then at the film set, and vaguely thought she could also see Pei Xingyu's leisurely figure.

She pointed and asked, "Xingyu is still there. Did Zhongyang go home first?"

Lin Yan'an looked in the direction she was referring to, nodded and explained, "Yes, Xingyu's scenes weren't many but they were all filmed, so Zhong Yang was given a break and told to go back first. Currently, Xingyu is mainly observing his brother-in-law and continuing to learn."

"I'll also be a little helper; I'll move things wherever I'm needed."

Zhong Wan instantly understood. Looking at the faint dark circles under Lin Yan'an's eyes, she asked with concern, "Have you been staying up late again lately? No matter how busy you are at work, you need to take care of yourself and get some rest."

Lin Yan'an felt even warmer inside as he experienced Zhong Wan's thoughtfulness.

He tilted his head slightly and affectionately rubbed his cheek against her small hand: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Seeing the two of them being all lovey-dovey, Su Mu tried to look around and ignore their conversation.

Zhong Suisui was speechless.

It's been on its mother's shoulder for so long! How come its father hasn't even seen it yet?

Zhong remained silent year after year.

He stared silently at Lin Yan'an.

Finally, Lin Yan'an seemed to feel that intense gaze as well, or rather, he finally remembered Zhong Suisui.

My gaze shifted and instantly met Zhong Suisui's round, cat-like eyes.

【Hmph (￢︿￢☆)】

Zhong Suisui proudly raised her cat head, completely ignoring Lin Yan'an.

Lin Yan'an chuckled upon seeing this, and he reached out to lift Zhong Suisui off Zhong Wan's shoulder. He then expertly scratched its chin.

"What? Is Sui Sui jealous of her mother?"

【How could that be!】

Zhong Suisui's cat-like eyes widened instantly, and she glared at Lin Yan'an indignantly, emphasizing, "It has nothing to do with Mom!"

[It's Dad! He doesn't care about Sui Sui!]

"How could that be? Daddy's eyes and heart are always with Sui Sui!"

Seeing Zhong Suisui's sulky little face, Lin Yan'an quickly assured her, affectionately rubbing her fluffy little head as he spoke: "Daddy was wrong this time. Daddy was just too worried about Mommy. Suisui won't really be angry, right?"

【snort! 】

Zhong Suisui was still a bit arrogant. Her fur was being rubbed by him, and she couldn't help but make little gurgling sounds in her throat, but she still turned her head away arrogantly, refusing to look at him.

But its tail had already honestly wrapped around Lin Yan'an's wrist.

Zhong Wan watched the interaction between the person and the cat with a smile, and the sadness of parting was greatly reduced.

She reached out and pinched Zhong Suisui's little hand, smiling as she said, "Okay, okay, Daddy knows he was wrong. Suisui, don't be angry with Daddy anymore."

"You know, Sui Sui is a big contributor to Daddy's success! How could Sui Sui feel that Daddy doesn't care about you?"

After being praised by Zhong Wan, Zhong Suisui instantly forgot her slight awkwardness and proudly raised her cat head, "That's right!"

In an instant, Zhong Suisui seemed to understand, affectionately tilting her head and nuzzling Lin Yan'an's hand, giggling, "Daddy!"

"Hey, Dad's here."

Lin Yan'an smiled and agreed.

Then, looking at Zhong Wan, he asked considerately, "Wanwan, I still have to go over there later."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Today's scenes are very important, I have to go check on them, so I probably won't have time to spend with you all today."

"By the way, are you tired? How about I have Xingyu show you around? Or should we go back to the hotel and rest first?"
