The scene suddenly turned into a communication between the two companies. Xu Zhaoyue exchanged a few pleasantries with them and inquired about the child's safety. "It's good that the child is alright. We have to go back later. Since we've already exchanged business cards, we'll keep in touch again when we have the chance."
"Okay, okay, let's have a meal and chat together sometime." Boss Wang readily agreed.
The dean had been waiting nearby for a while. She had just learned that a child was missing and had been searching everywhere with her team. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the child had been found.
"Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang, your son getting lost this time was our fault..." The dean was about to admit his mistake when Mr. Wang stopped him, "Hey, don't say that. It was our carelessness as parents. We can't blame you."
These words were quite magnanimous. Fortunately, the child was brought back, and the Wang family didn't pursue the matter, so everyone was happy. Afterwards, the director took them to take a group photo, and then they were surrounded by reporters. Each group picked out the ones they liked to be interviewed.
Xu Zhaoyue naturally exchanged a few words with Reporter Zhu. Reporter Zhu looked at the person in front of him. This was the person who arranged the merger of the two newspapers behind the scenes. He was truly amazed that she could get such outstanding people as Yue Lanxing to work under her.
As the conversation progressed, Reporter Zhu became even more convinced that this was a wise woman, and he was determined to write this report well—it would be the best way to prove his loyalty.
After everything was finished, Xu Zhaoyue and her group went to the parking lot.
"Hey Yue Lanxing, why don't you come home with me today? We'll get home before four o'clock, which will give us time to cook a big meal for my mom," Huang Lian said, putting her arm around Yue Lanxing's shoulder.
Yue Lanxing looked at Xu Zhaoyue. He could have refused directly, but he wanted to see what the young lady would say. Would she tell him to go do his own thing or that they should go back to the Xu family together?
Xu Zhaoyue heard Huang Lian's words and wondered if Yue Lanxing would agree. But when she turned around, she saw Yue Lanxing staring at her. Even after being discovered, Yue Lanxing didn't try to avoid her. He was getting bolder and bolder.
Huang Lian didn't see the exchange of glances between the two. After Xu Zhaoyue turned around, he casually extended an invitation, "Manager Xu is my direct superior. We would be extremely honored if you could come and be our guest."
Huang Lian's tone wasn't serious; anyone could tell he was just talking nonsense and didn't mean it sincerely. He was already prepared for Xu Zhaoyue to release the person.
“Okay, then we need to hurry. I need to prepare a gift for my first visit.” Xu Zhaoyue not only agreed but also wanted to bring a gift. Before Huang Lian and Yue Lanxing could even express their surprise, Xiao Nan exclaimed in disbelief, “Miss?”
Seeing their surprise, Xu Zhaoyue said, "Doctor Huang and I are of the same generation. Can't I go see my elder brother?"
Yue Lanxing was surprised and immediately said, "Since Miss wants to go, I will go with Miss." Only after saying that did he realize that Huang Lian had invited him first, and now he was putting the cart before the horse.
"Of course you're welcome! Let's get in the car then." Huang Lian finally realized what was happening and readily agreed. Could it be that Manager Xu's sudden agreement was because of that kid Yue Lanxing?
"Okay, Xiaonan, you and Huzi go back first." Xu Zhaoyue pressed Xiaonan's hand and whispered in her ear, "I'll talk to you when we get back." Then she patted Xiaonan's hand and got into the car whose door was already open.
After closing the door, Yue Lanxing made a point of assuring Xiao Nan, "Don't worry, Xiao Nan, the young lady and I will definitely go home as soon as possible."
Although it was a promise, Xiaonan felt she could faintly hear a hint of smugness in it. "Yeah, I know. You... never mind, the most important thing is to take good care of Miss!"
Yue Lanxing made several assurances before getting into the car and leaving. Xiao Nan watched Huang Lian's car drive away before turning back and saying, "Let's go, it'll just be the two of us now. Let's find somewhere to eat."
"Huh? Aren't we going back?" Xue Huzi, who had been standing silently to the side, spoke his first words of the afternoon. He hadn't expected Xiao Nan to act this way after the young lady left.
Seeing his simple and honest face, Xiao Nan felt a little less annoyed. "Miss...we're going home late anyway, so if we go back too early, we'll just be waiting. I'll take you out to eat today, let's go."
"Okay." Xue Huzi nodded and obediently went to drive.
Huang Lian looked at Yue Lanxing in the passenger seat and then at Xu Zhaoyue in the rearview mirror. "How was it? I followed your young lady the whole time today. It was worth it for you to ask me to come."
When Yue Lanxing heard him speak the truth, he immediately turned to look at Xu Zhaoyue. Sure enough, the other party was interested. Yue Lanxing quickly warned Huang Lian with his eyes not to talk nonsense.
"What is it? Did he specifically ask you to come? To follow me?" Xu Zhaoyue didn't expect that Yue Lanxing not only waited for her in the car but also brought a friend over. How worried must he be to do something like this?
Seeing that Yue Lanxing was still trying to warn him even at this point, Huang Lian thought, "Don't blame me for being impolite." "Yes, it was when your brother came to the hospital that day that he pulled me aside and said it."
Huang Lian wanted to continue, but suddenly realized that Yue Lanxing's illness had not been exposed. Otherwise, why wouldn't he go to accompany the young lady? The reason he made up before was accepted by the young lady.
Thinking of all this, he saw Xu Zhaoyue's curious gaze behind him, wondering why he hadn't continued. "Um, I suddenly remembered something, it's just that...!" His silence was deafening.
"What?" Xu Zhaoyue didn't quite understand what he meant. They were just talking about Yue Lanxing, so why did he suddenly fall silent?
Huang Lian was frantically trying to signal to Yue Lanxing with her eyes, hoping he would give her a definite answer. Fortunately, Yue Lanxing had just realized what she meant.
