Chapter 216 Extreme Pulling

Fang Lanxin smiled faintly, just stood by the car, not saying a word, just staring at Guan Yu.

Guan Yu tightened his grip on Fang Lanxin's hand, but in the end, he willingly lowered his head and said, "Alan, I'm sorry. I was being silly before."

I forgive you.

Fang Lanxin's voice was soft and gentle, carried by the evening breeze into Guan Yu's heart, finally easing the tense atmosphere that had been building up.

Guan Yu then got out of the carriage and hugged Fang Lanxin.

"What can I do? I always lose when I'm with you."

Fang Lanxin sensed his helplessness and submission. She reached out and gently wrapped her arms around his waist, whispering in his ear with a soft laugh, "How did you know I won?"

"You...Alan?" Guan Yu's pupils dilated in shock as he stared at Fang Lanxin in disbelief. Meeting her slightly reddened eyes, all his emotions vanished in an instant, leaving only heartache and guilt: "I'm sorry, Alan, I'm so sorry!"

Fang Lanxin quickly kissed him on the cheek: "I haven't had dinner yet."

"I'll take you to eat something delicious right now."

"Eat whatever you like, it's on me."

Guan Yu immediately understood, took Fang Lanxin's hand, led her to the passenger seat, opened the car door with a fawning smile, and stared at Fang Lanxin.

That's more like it.

Fang Lanxin gave a haughty snort before getting into the car. She had originally thought that Master Guan would take her to a restaurant, but to her surprise, he drove straight home.

Upon entering, Guan Erye first gave Fang Lanxin some snacks, then said, "Have something to tide you over, I'll cook you something delicious."

"good."

Fang Lanxin responded and casually sat down on the sofa and turned on the TV.

The sounds of the television and the kitchen mingled together, and the aroma of cooking instantly filled the entire villa.

When Guan Erye in the kitchen thought of Fang Lanxin on the sofa, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up in a crazy smile.

Soon, he brought out the pasta he had made.

Fang Lanxin sat at the table with a look of anticipation, watching his every move.

"Why...why are you looking at me like that?"

Guan Yu felt uneasy under Fang Lanxin's gaze and gave an uncomfortable twitch at the corner of his mouth.

"Is Guan Yu, the man who once dominated the business world, afraid of being seen by me?"

Fang Lanxin raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly.

"No matter how powerful he is, he's still your defeated opponent."

Guan Yu chuckled softly, walked over, picked up a fork, twirled some spaghetti, and brought it to Fang Lanxin's lips.

Fang Lanxin stared into Guan Yu's eyes, opened her mouth, and looked at him expectantly.

The sweet and sour taste of the tomato sauce exploded in her mouth, and Fang Lan nodded in satisfaction: "Delicious."

"Eat more if it's delicious."

Guan Yu shoved the fork into Fang Lanxin's hand and awkwardly distanced himself from her.

Even though they had already done the most intimate things, he didn't know why, but now, facing Fang Lanxin's gaze, he felt inexplicably flustered, just like when the two of them had just met.

Fang Lanxin withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, and began to eat the spaghetti on her plate.

Guan Er had no appetite and kept staring at Fang Lanxin, not wanting to look away for even a moment.

"Alan, I was petty before and shouldn't have said those things. I'll never do it again."

After seeing that Fang Lanxin had almost finished eating, Guan Yu finally spoke and formally apologized again.

"It depends on your performance."

Fang Lanxin put down her fork and looked up to meet the Second Master's gaze.

"I will definitely do my best!"

Guan Erfen was quick on his feet. He strode over, picked Fang Lanxin up in his arms, and carried her upstairs to the bedroom.

The Huo family mansion.

Huo Qibang was so bothered by the messy rumors circulating outside that he couldn't even eat properly and sat alone in a chair, deep in thought.

Seeing his state, Lin Meiling said helplessly, "What's wrong with you? You've been restless these past few days."

"It's nothing." Huo Qibang pulled her to sit on his lap, buried his head in her chest, and said in a muffled voice, "I just feel that my mother had it so hard before. Now that I'm the general manager, I understand how troublesome and difficult it is to handle these things."

"You can understand how hard your mother works, which proves that you are sensible. This is a good thing."

“Abang, we are parents now, and we should live independently.”

"Don't always rely on your mother, and don't always depend on her."

Lin Meiling sighed softly, took Huo Qibang's hand, and placed it on her lower abdomen.

"Don't forget, we still have a child in my belly." Lin Meiling's eyes sparkled as she stared at Huo Qibang.

Huo Qibang then pressed his ear against her lower abdomen and chuckled softly, "Yes, you're right. I should really think about our child."

"The Huo family's opinion is not important at all. I want to protect my mother!" Huo Qibang slapped his thigh, finally understanding the matter.

He stood up and looked at Lin Meiling very seriously: "I will protect you and our child from now on!"

At this moment, Lin Meiling finally understood that Huo Qibang had grown up and was finally a real man.

Seeing Huo Qibang's expression, Lin Meiling smiled gently and said, "Alright, then let's protect Mother together. Anyone who dares to speak ill of Mother will be slapped in the face!"

"Then it's settled." Huo Qibang immediately hugged Lin Meiling, smiled gently, and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.

Jewelry workshop.

Huo Siya looked at the jewelry she had designed herself and nodded in satisfaction. Then she looked at Huo Xianxian beside her and asked, "You were doing well abroad, why did you suddenly come back?"

"I don't like the food abroad," Huo Xianxian said honestly. "But my mother loves being abroad, so she stayed there. Now that I'm back, what, you're not welcoming me?"

After Huo Xianxian sat down, she glanced at Huo Siya's design draft and said, "I didn't expect you to be so amazing when you're serious."

There are many things you haven't thought of.

Now that you're back, what are you planning to do?

Huo Siya and Huo Xianxian didn't have a very good relationship before, but now they've both grown up a lot and have learned to talk to each other nicely.

Especially after what Huo Siya went through, she developed a certain indescribable tolerance and gentleness towards the people around her.

Seeing Huo Siya like this, Huo Xianxian smiled: "I want to open an art company to specialize in all kinds of art exhibitions and jewelry exhibitions. I want to become the best curator in the entire Hong Kong city!"
