Chapter 385: Chase Boldly
After hearing what he said, Lan Yan was stunned.
She got up from the bed and sat up, then looked at her phone again to make sure she had dialed the wrong number.
She said, "Doctor Xiao, are you drunk and talking nonsense?"
She remembered that at around eight o'clock, Xiao's mother told her that he had gone out to get drunk.
Moreover, she heard something wrong with his voice.
So, after being stunned for a moment, she didn't take his words seriously.
Xiao Si replied to her firmly: "I'm not talking nonsense, I'm serious."
Lan Yan: “…”
She raised her hand and touched her forehead, and said helplessly: "Doctor Xiao, it's very late. If you don't sleep, I have to sleep too."
But she didn't hang up the phone directly.
"Marry me, please..."
The man kept repeating this sentence on the phone. Lan Yan sighed deeply and felt a headache for a moment.
She didn't know where his obsession came from.
People who don’t know would think how much he loves her.
“…”
Next, no matter what she said, he would just repeat this sentence.
So, she simply stopped talking and let him talk to his heart's content.
She turned the volume down to the lowest setting, put her phone aside, lay down and fell asleep.
…
There were some things she couldn't promise him or respond to him.
She chose to play deaf and dumb. Besides, when he sobered up tomorrow morning, he would probably not remember anything, so there was no need for her to remember anything.
The next morning.
The first thing Lan Yan did when she woke up was to check her phone, and she found that the call was still going on.
She looked at it for a few seconds, and without hesitation, she hung up the phone.
Then she got up and washed up.
At noon, Xiao's mother made an appointment with her, and she arrived at the restaurant that Xiao's mother mentioned on time.
When she arrived, Xiao's mother was already there.
"Yan Yan, here, here."
Mother Xiao stood up and waved to her.
Xiao's mother knew that she had been living abroad and was used to eating Western dishes, so she specially booked a meal at this Western restaurant today.
Lan Yan looked in the direction of the sound and walked over with a smile.
"Aunt Yun, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Oh, not long ago, I just arrived too." Xiao's mother said, "Hurry up and sit down and have a drink of water."
As she spoke, she poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her.
"Aunt Yun, please sit down. I can do it myself."
Lan Yan was a little flattered.
Xiao's mother really took care of her like her own child.
"It's okay, it doesn't matter who comes."
Mother Xiao looked at her and said amiably, "I've already ordered the dishes, and we'll be eating soon."
Xiao's mother had dined with her several times and had a complete understanding of her taste and food taboos.
Lan Yan smiled and said, "Okay, thank you Aunt Yun."
When she said this, Xiao's mother started to nag again, "Oh, silly child, don't be so polite to me, otherwise I will be angry."
She definitely isn't really angry, she's just saying it.
Of course Lan Yan knew she was joking.
The two chatted for a while and then the dishes were served.
Lan Yan looked at the dishes in front of her and found that they were indeed her favorites.
A warm feeling spread in her heart.
"Yan Yan, stop looking at it and eat it quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold." Xiao's mother said.
Lan Yan looked up at her and nodded, "Okay."
This restaurant has two floors.
Xiao's mother booked a window seat on the first floor because she thought the view from this seat was great.
At this moment, there were two people sitting on the second floor diagonally opposite them.
Hu Yunqin arrived earlier than Liang Yun, and noticed her as soon as she came in.
"Mom, what are you looking at?"
Dong Xiaoxiao, who was sitting opposite her, saw that she was staring down and asked a question.
Dong Xiaoxiao followed her gaze and asked, "Mom, do you know them?"
Hu Yunqin came back to her senses and said, "Well, she and my mother are classmates."
After hearing this, Dong Xiaoxiao said "oh" lightly. She had no interest in these people.
Dong Xiaoxiao was originally abroad and she had just graduated from university.
But when she heard that Hu Yunqin had returned to China to find her biological daughter, she followed her.
"Mom, are you really looking for my sister?" Dong Xiaoxiao asked.
She bit her lower lip, looking a little uncomfortable.
Although she knew very well that she was not Hu Yunqin's child, she had always regarded her as her own mother since she was a child. In fact, she did not want to share a mother with anyone.
However, she didn't dare to show it too obviously, for she was afraid that Hu Yunqin would be angry.
After all, she is not her biological child.
Even if she was always nice to her, what would she do if she ended up being more partial to her biological daughter whom she had never met?
Hu Yunqin looked at her with gentle and loving eyes, "Xiaoxiao, don't think too much. You will always be your mother's most beloved daughter. No one can replace you."
Dong Xiaoxiao always listened to her. When she heard her say that, her eyes lit up. "Really?"
Hu Yunqin smiled helplessly: "Silly child, of course it's true."
She had never thought about looking for the lost child, but she needed to find her now so that she could be useful.
After all, compared with that child, she would definitely choose Dong Xiaoxiao.
After Dong Xiaoxiao got the answer she wanted, her gloomy mood instantly brightened up.
Then she said, "Mom, since you feel this way, why don't you stop looking for my sister? It's been more than 20 years, and you definitely won't be able to find her. Maybe my sister has already..." died.
She didn't say these two words, but she knew that Hu Yunqin would definitely understand what she wanted to express.
After hearing this, Hu Yunqin narrowed her eyes slightly, and her hands on her legs unconsciously clenched slightly.
But she quickly smiled in relief: "It's okay, I've looked for her. If I really can't find her, Mom won't have any regrets. After all, if I hadn't kept an eye on your sister back then, she wouldn't have been lost. This is all my fault."
Seeing that she was blaming herself, Dong Xiaoxiao comforted her, "Mom, don't blame yourself. This isn't your fault. You had just given birth and must have been very weak. How could you have had time to look after the child? If you want to blame someone, blame the hospital staff for not helping you look after the child. I don't object to you looking for the child. I'm just worried about you. If you really can't find the child, I'm worried you'll be unhappy."
Hu Yunqin changed the subject, "Okay, Xiaoxiao, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's just leave it to fate." She smiled and said, "Hurry up and eat. Weren't you just saying you were hungry?"
…
After getting drunk last night, Xiao Si was sent back to his house in Xiziwan Community by his assistant Peng Yiming.
He woke up from his sleep at noon.
The sun outside the window looks like golden rays shining in from outside.
