Chapter 206 The world is so big, she only trusts him
Just as Xiao Ran had expected, Yan Xici was more nervous than ever before tonight, pacing back and forth in the room, glancing at her watch every now and then.
I resisted the urge to message him many times.
Every time I hear a sound in the hallway, I rush over and peek through the peephole to see if it's Xiao Ran coming back.
When he realizes it's not him, he'll walk back to the sofa and sit there with a disappointed look on his face.
Even though it's only been three and a half hours since we last met, it felt like an eternity.
Just as she was about to boil some water to drink when Xiao Ran came back, her phone, which was on the coffee table, vibrated.
She picked up the phone, and the moment she saw it was Xiao Ran calling, she answered immediately, "Hey, Xiao Ran, are you alright?"
To be honest, more than whether things succeed or not, she is most worried about Xiao Ran's safety.
Xiao Ran had just gotten into the taxi when he hurriedly called Yan Xici.
Hearing her voice, he felt inexplicably moved, and even his tone became more affectionate, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
That night, everyone was concerned about whether they had succeeded, but Xi Ci's first question was whether he was doing well.
Although it is a society governed by the rule of law, there are no safety hazards.
But her words still filled me with emotion.
Hearing that Xiao Ran was alright, Yan Xici finally breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her feet. She hadn't been able to sit still all night; she had been pacing around the room for as long as he had been gone.
The girl wiggled her fair toes slightly before saying, "That's good. Did you eat well tonight? There are still noodles at home. Would you like me to make you a bowl?"
Xiao Ran was indeed a little hungry; he hadn't eaten much all night!
"Then I won't be polite, I'll have a bowl of egg noodles!"
Egg noodles are relatively easy to make, so Ding Suiwan found it quite easy.
"good!"
After a few simple words, Yan Xici felt a wave of relief when she hung up the phone.
She walked into the kitchen; right now, the most important thing for her was to cook a bowl of noodles for Xiao Ran.
Malone is now back home, in a small rented apartment. He's sitting on the sofa, his face gloomy, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
You know, I've always been the one threatening others to ask for money, and this is the first time in all these years that I've been asked for money by someone else!
Although he secretly wished he could kill Xiao Ran and Xu Yuan to vent his anger!
However, he held back. The most important thing right now was to keep Wang Jianfeng from finding out about this, otherwise the million yuan wouldn't have been wasted.
After all, the company has given him far more than just one million over the years.
He thought for a moment and then called Xiao Liu from the finance department.
Xiao Liu was already asleep when he saw Ma Long's call. His eyelids twitched, and he quickly sat up, his tired tone carrying a hint of respect.
"Hey, Assistant Ma, is there something you need calling me so late?"
It's important to know that within the company, Ma Long is practically Wang Jianfeng's spokesperson.
When he calls himself, it's most likely at the behest of General Manager Wang!
"Nothing important, just wanted to tell you to transfer one million to me tomorrow morning!"
This is not the first time Ma Long has embezzled public funds, but he always makes sure to return the money quickly afterward, so no one cares about it.
There was no way around it; he had to flatter the boss, and with that privilege, plus the strength of Gaoyuan Media, one million was well within Ma Long's authority.
Upon hearing that money was needed, Xiao Liu quickly asked, "Does Mr. Wang know about this?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Long's face immediately darkened.
His tone also became unpleasant.
"Xiao Liu, have you forgotten something? If I remember correctly, Mr. Wang gave me the authority to grant one million, right? What, you need to ask about this in detail? Do you need me to submit an application for you?"
If it were any other time, Ma Long's attitude would be a little better, but today, he's filled with resentment.
After being messed with like that, he completely lost his temper. Luckily, Xiao Liu wasn't around right now, or he would have reached out and slapped the person a couple of times!
"You've misunderstood, Assistant Ma. I was just asking. Don't worry, the money will definitely be transferred to your account by tomorrow morning!"
Xiao Liu sounded nervous.
He was just asking a routine question; why did he get so angry with me?
After hanging up the phone, Ma Long angrily walked to the bedside and lay down, tossing and turning, but unable to fall asleep.
Xiao Ran is Yan Li's ex-husband, which means that Yan Xici is her current girlfriend.
But his girlfriend is clearly Yan Xici, yet he's getting so close to Xu Yuan. That doesn't make sense.
First, he divorced his older sister and got together with his younger sister. Now, not long after he got together with his younger sister, he cheated on her with Xu Yuan.
If everyone finds out, then Xiao Ran's reputation as a scumbag will be confirmed, right?
If he wants to ruin himself, he'll have to see how capable he really is!
One million dollars isn't so easy to get!
Ma Long became more and more excited as he thought about it, and he, who already couldn't sleep, was now wide awake.
He immediately started chatting in a small group chat with a few internet celebrities he was close to.
Ma Long: Does anyone know Xiao Ran?
Ma Long: It's Xiao Ran, the one who was exposed online a while ago for having an affair with his sister-in-law.
