When Ye Junbo returned to the room, Mu Qing had already finished taking a shower.
She was wearing pajamas, sitting against the headboard, flipping through a book in her hand. When she saw him come in, she asked with a smile, "Has the second brother left?"
"I don't know if he'll leave or not. I don't have that much time to lie on the couch with him."
Ye Junbo walked over, bent down, leaned close to Mu Qing's cheek, and kissed her, "Wife, you smell so good."
Just as his body was about to fall down, Mu Qing pushed him away.
"Go take a shower."
"Okay, wait for me, I'll be quick."
Ye Junbo still kissed her lips secretly before happily going to take a shower.
This night was full of passion for the young couple.
But for a certain old man, it was full of torture.
Lan Rui, who had been on a business trip for a few days, returned to Wangcheng by private plane in the evening.
Because he was too tired, he did not go back to the company and went straight home.
After returning home, there were a lot of household chores that needed to be dealt with by him as the head of the family.
After finishing his housework, Hei Ruoyue came over after hearing the news. He was very alert and tried to deal with Hei Ruoyue.
Hei Ruoyue has been waiting for Lan Rui to come back, and even went to find Lan Zheng during the day for Lan Rui.
She and Lan Zheng were not on good terms, and everyone in Wangcheng knew it. If she married into the Lan family, her relationship with Lan Zheng would be that of stepmother and stepson. Even a fool could imagine what kind of conflict would arise between the stepmother who was only two years older than her stepson.
So the two of them were not on good terms, and everyone knew it. Normally, Hei Ruyue would not go looking for Lan Zheng, and Lan Zheng was even more unwilling to see her.
Now that Lan Rui is back, Hei Ruoyue is not willing to miss the opportunity, so she will stay at Lan's house tonight.
At this moment, it was late at night. In the main house of the Lan family mansion, except for the head of the family and Hei Ruyue who had not yet rested, everyone else, including the servants, had fallen asleep. Even if they were not asleep yet, they would not come out.
Hei Ruoyue gave them a lot of benefits, implying that they should stay in the room tonight and not come out to be a light bulb unless the sky falls.
"Lan Rui, it's late, and you must be tired after just coming back. I'll take you back to your room to rest."
Hei Ruoyue looked at the time and guessed that Lan Zheng would be back soon, so she considerately tried to coax Lan Rui back to his room to rest.
It would be best if Lan Zheng saw the two of them enter the room together and see the lights in their room go out. This would definitely make Lan Zheng furious and would also make Shen Yimo even more heartbroken and determined to divorce Lan Rui.
Hei Ruoyue was angered by Lan Zheng during the day. After returning home, she consulted with her father and arranged for a group of assassins to kill Lan Zheng. Once Lan Zheng died, even if Lan Qing returned to the Lan family, she would not pose any threat to her.
Lan Qing grew up in City A and had no experience in business for the past twenty years. She only opened a service-oriented coffee shop and had no ability to take over the huge Lan Group, even though Lan Qing married into the Jun family, the richest family in City A.
How long can the Jun family’s hands be?
Far water cannot quench a nearby fire.
As long as Lan Zheng died, Shen Yimo would have been disheartened. Without her son, she would only hate Lan Rui even more. The couple divorced, and she would just take over, without any stumbling blocks preventing her child from taking over.
Of course, the most urgent thing is that she sleeps with Lan Rui first, so that she can have a child.
Her father remained silent, neither agreeing to her nor rejecting her.
Hei Ruoyue knew what her father was thinking. It was simply that if the assassination failed even after using the death squad, they would lose a death squad.
It is very difficult to train a death warrior.
After all, the He family was whitewashed from the underworld, and they still have some shady connections and forces in secret. The death squad is one of them. The death squad of their He family is different from those of Lan Zhiping.
Lan Zhiping's so-called death squads are nothing but desperate criminals.
The members of their Hei family were carefully selected and cultivated. The entire Hei family only trained ten death warriors, and her father was reluctant to use those ten death warriors casually.
Forget it, let’s put the assassination of Lan Zheng aside for now. What she is worried about now is sleeping with Lan Rui.
Lan Rui rubbed his temples and said, "I'm really tired. As soon as I got back, I had to deal with so many household chores. I'm so tired that my head hurts. It seems that I'm getting old and my energy is not good. I have to let Zheng'er help me share the burden."
"He is the young master and should share the responsibilities of the head of the family."
Hei Ruoyue's heart tightened when she heard this.
Lan Zheng, the young master of the Lan family, is currently mainly stationed in the Lan Group, and almost all of his confidants are in the company.
Because of the complicated situation in the Lan family mansion, Lan Zheng didn't cultivate many confidants. He also didn't dare to trust his family members. To put it bluntly, in this family, except for his father and grandparents, everyone else wanted him dead.
How dare he win them over and train them as his confidants?
He was afraid that his trusted confidants would betray him, leaving him vulnerable to attacks from all sides.
"That's right. Lan Zheng is already 24, and will be 25 after the New Year. It's time for you to share the housework. However, men who haven't started a family yet don't have much patience to take care of family affairs. Young people are often impatient."
"Lan Rui, you have to help your son find a wife. Once a man gets married and has a family, he will become mature and responsible. Only then will he have the patience to help you with household chores. Even if he doesn't have time, his wife is the wife of the young master of the Lan family and can help."
Lan Rui's eyes flickered as he smiled and said, "Qingqing is married, but Zheng'er doesn't even have a girlfriend. He's already grown up and it's time for him to think about the important things in his life. But he's like a piece of wood, so it's not easy to get him to marry."
"Forget it, let's not worry about his marriage for now. He's only 24, still young. A man isn't considered old to get married at 30. Let him have fun for a few more years. Ruyue, let's go upstairs and rest."
Hei Ruyue was thinking about manipulating Lan Zheng's marriage. After testing Lan Rui's attitude, she had a plan in mind. When she heard Lan Rui say he was going upstairs to rest, she smiled and took his arm, saying, "I'll take you back to your room to rest."
Lan Rui smiled and did not refuse.
The two of them went up to the second floor together.
Lan Rui was not in a hurry to go back to his room. Instead, he stood at the door and turned to look at another room. That was the room where Shen Yimo lived, and it was also the couple's previous room.
After Shen Yimo went crazy, in order not to upset her, he had to move out of that room and live in the guest room.
They lived there for more than twenty years, and the guest rooms became master bedrooms.
"Sister didn't come back even after she woke up. Does she hate us being together?"
Hei Ruyue said softly.
Lan Rui retracted his gaze and said calmly, "After the tragic loss of her beloved daughter, she gradually became insane. Now that Qingqing has been found, she has finally regained consciousness. Naturally, she wants to stay with her daughter and make up for the mother-daughter relationship."
"Hate or not, what does it matter?"
He did it all.
Hate her or not, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. If one day he dies, if she is still willing to shed tears for him, he will be satisfied.
Sitting in his position, he has so much to consider and sacrifice.
Sometimes, being ignored is also a form of protection.
