Huo Xian hurriedly asked Li Xue'er what was going on, since she had just contacted Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng yesterday, and he said he would definitely come today.
Li Xue'er shrugged. "You'll have to ask my aunt Liang Yan. Apparently, she felt that she hadn't punished her cousin enough before, so she insisted that Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng broke her hand."
"My mom said he's been kneeling in the ancestral hall since last night."
Huo Xian pursed her lips. "That's too much."
Lin Ruanruan and Fang Lan exchanged a glance, then stood up and started to walk out. Li Xue'er stopped them, asking, "Where are you two going?"
Lin Ruanruan put her hands on her hips and said, "What is this if not abuse? We're going to the Xuanyuan family right now to bring Xuanyuan Haocheng out!"
"Yes, since the Xuanyuan family is abusing their son, they should come to my Fang family instead. They don't know how to cherish such a good son." Fang Lan said indignantly.
"I'm going too!" Huo Xian's eyes lit up.
“Xianxian, today is your day, you can’t leave, but Fang Lan and I can.” Lin Ruanruan grabbed Huo Xian’s hand and shook it. “Trust Fang Lan and me, we have experience in this area.”
Lin Ruanruan and Fang Lan smiled at each other. Back when they had only known each other for a short time, Lin Ruanruan had gone to the Fang family's old house alone to rescue Fang Lan.
Today it's their turn to save Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng together.
Looking at the two resolute figures, Li Xueer felt a sense of déjà vu; it seemed that Ruan Ruan had done the same thing before starting her live stream last time.
She couldn't help but chuckle. Huo Xian looked at Li Xue'er in confusion, and Li Xue'er slightly bent her index finger to wipe away the tears that had welled up in her eyes from laughing.
"Ruan Ruan is a very caring person when she sees you being framed."
Huo Xian said gently, "It's my good fortune to have met Ruan Ruan."
Li Xueer smiled and took Huo Xian's hand, "Alright, little birthday star, you still have to give a speech on stage later, so I'll stay by your side today."
Huo Xian was both amused and exasperated. "Sister Xue'er, I'm not that fragile."
"Of course I know, but you don't know how deep the water is in these rich girls' circles. With me by your side, you won't suffer any losses."
Li Xueer quite liked Huo Xian, thinking that the girl was very opinionated and that she had heard that Huo Xian's grades were also very good.
Li Xueer was also a high-achieving student, and the two quickly hit it off. Huo Xian was surprised to find that Li Xueer was a chemistry major and had even developed her own cosmetics.
He immediately looked at Li Xue'er with admiration and asked many professional questions, which Li Xue'er answered with a smile.
...
Lin Ruanruan pulled Fang Lan to find Uncle Wang and asked him to take them to the Xuanyuan family.
After Fang Lan got into the back seat, he realized that he didn't need to know where the Xuanyuan family was at all. "Ruan Ruan, where is the Xuanyuan family?"
Lin Ruanruan pulled up a map and pointed to it for Fang Lan, "It's right here. I just messaged Brother Aochen, and he told me to just go there."
"Isn't he afraid his dad will blame him if he finds out?" Fang Lan asked, somewhat surprised.
“Brother Aochen and Uncle Xuanyuan actually care about Xuanyuan Haocheng a lot. This time, it's just because Madam Liang did hurt her hand. Although it's not serious, they still locked Xuanyuan Haocheng in the ancestral hall.”
Fang Lan said speechlessly, "How can Madam Liang be so clueless? She's targeting her own son for the sake of her own family."
"I don't know either. I heard that when they were young, Madam Liang and Uncle Xuanyuan were very loving, but things changed after they had Xuanyuan Haocheng."
Even Huo Qi didn't know much about this, let alone Lin Ruanruan.
Uncle Wang drove the car ahead with a cheerful smile; his young lady was about to do something big again.
By the time the two arrived at Xuanyuan's house, almost two hours had passed, and Huo Xian had probably already finished his speech.
Lin Ruanruan shook Fang Lan awake, saying, "Fang Lan, Fang Lan, wake up, we've arrived."
Fang Lan rubbed her face and finally woke up. "It feels like you haven't woken me up in ages."
Before, he would always be woken up softly whenever he fell asleep at school.
Lin Ruanruan mimicked Huo Qi and flicked Fang Lan on the forehead, saying, "Please don't say things that could cause such misunderstandings."
Fang Lan covered her head and said plaintively, "You don't love me anymore."
Lin Ruanruan sighed helplessly, "Fine, fine, let's go."
Fang Lan got out of the car with satisfaction. He looked at the huge villa in front of him and whistled, "This is a European-style villa."
Lin Ruanruan carefully read the notes that Xuan Yuan Aochen, who was at the banquet, had sent her. She then pulled Fang Lan to the back door.
Sure enough, there was no one at the back door; someone had even thoughtfully unlocked it.
Lin Ruanruan and Fang Lan exchanged an excited glance. Fang Lan quietly entered the room and said, "Ruanruan, I think we look a bit like thieves."
Lin Ruanruan was also a little excited, "Isn't he just a thief? He's going to steal someone's son who weighs over 100 pounds."
Fang Lan almost laughed at Lin Ruanruan. The two of them quietly headed towards their destination according to the map sent by Xuan Yuan Aochen.
Is this the place?
"I think so..."
Lin Ruanruan and Fang Lan finally found the back door of the ancestral hall. They had just secretly peeked at the front door and saw that there were still bodyguards guarding it.
However, the back door was locked from the inside, leaving the two at a loss. They dared not make a sound and could only think of other solutions.
At that moment, Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng, who was kneeling inside, suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the back door. He glanced in that direction in confusion, then turned his head back.
He quietly took a hairpin from his pocket and stroked the white jade hairpin with his calloused hands. This was originally a birthday gift he planned to give to Xianxian today, but it seemed he wouldn't be able to give it to her today.
A hint of regret flashed in Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng's eyes. Just as he put the hairpin back into his pocket, he heard a strange meow coming from the back door...
