Chapter 444: To Meet or Not to Meet



"New Year's Eve is almost here, why are you still so lazy?" Lan Nuoling was quite disgusted when she saw Xu Tianze slumped on the couch in an ungraceful manner when she came in.

"You talk like you're so hardworking, but I'm actually going in and out just to prepare New Year gifts. I don't know who said a few days ago that being lazy is a good thing." Xu Tianze rolled his eyes lazily.

She is really double-standard. When it comes to me, everything is perfect, but when it comes to him, it becomes this and that. You really can't guess what this woman is thinking, otherwise she will be consumed by internal energy sooner or later.

Lan Nuoling felt a little embarrassed when Xu Tianze cut her off like this. After all, she did say that, but she had nothing to do in the past few days, so she just did whatever she wanted.

Now that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, how can it be compared with the previous situation? Especially since she is already so busy that she almost has no time to rest, and Xu Tianze is still so lazy and has no intention of helping at all, she is really unhappy.

When she thought of this, she snatched the cake from Xu Tianze's hand and stuffed it into her mouth: "After all, you are now a member of the Lan Mansion. How can you be so leisurely when I am so busy that I can't even drink a sip of water?"

Xu Tianze curled his lips. He knew that there was no good news when this person came. If he wanted him to work, he should just say it directly. Why was he talking about this and that now?

"Tell me what you want from me." Xu Tianze stood up and brought the pastries beside him to Lan Nuoling, and poured her a cup of tea.

Lan Nuoling first ate two pieces of cake, then drank the tea in front of him. After taking a breath, he spoke: "Li Yao wants to talk to us."

"Do you feel that hiding is not a big deal anymore, or have you hit too many walls and want to reconcile?" Xu Tianze raised the corner of his mouth with a smile.

When he handed the things to Lan Nuoling that day, Lan Nuoling asked if it was too serious. After he talked back to her, she had no choice but to do as he said and find someone to hand the things over to Li Yi.

Li Yi had caught a cold and would recover soon. In fact, when Li Yao came to his house, Li Yi's fever had already subsided and he even woke up once at night.

This was also the news that Lan Nuoling told him later, but after Ye Ren fed the thing to Li Yi, Li Yi remained unconscious. Li Yao invited many doctors, even the imperial physician.

But the result still did not improve. Up to now, because Li Yi has been in a coma, there are all kinds of rumors outside, of course there are also some related to him, but it is much better than before when all the rumors were about him.

"Are you sure that Li Yi is just unconscious and there are no other problems?" Lan Nuoling was still a little unsure.

At the beginning, she also thought that Li Yi was poisoned, which was why Li Yi was still unconscious, so she thought Xu Tianze might be too conceited.

After all, there are many excellent doctors in Minglan Kingdom, not to mention the imperial doctors passed down from generation to generation in the palace, but in the end no one found out that Li Yi was poisoned.

It was obvious that Li Yi's pulse was fine, but for some reason he remained unconscious.

"What are you worried about? Li Yao treated you like that, but you still care about their friendship. But when you end up like me, you will learn to be cruel." Xu Tianze sneered, with unknown emotions constantly churning in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I never intended to take Li Yi's life. I also knew that Li Yao would sooner or later become suspicious of us, so I naturally prepared a backup plan." After Xu Tianze finished speaking, he lay down lazily again.

I originally thought that Lan Nuoling had time to come over at this time because of something important, but now it seems that there is nothing important at all, so there is no need for him to be so formal.

"So are you going to meet this person or not?" Lan Nuoling felt a little discouraged after talking for a long time without getting to the point.

"It's not a question of whether I want to see her or not, but whether you want to see her or not. Have you thought about how to deal with this matter?" Xu Tianze looked up and stared at Lan Nuoling.

If it were in the past, Li Yi would definitely die, and he would not let Li Yao off so easily, but the test from a few days ago was still vivid in his mind, and what he needed now was to keep a low profile as much as possible.

This way, you won't cause public outrage later, and it will also make it easier for you to act without too many obstacles.

Since he doesn't intend to pursue the matter, the final result will depend on Lan Nuoling. After all, no matter what, Li Yao and Lan Nuoling have a long-standing friendship.

Lan Nuoling was not feeling much better after this incident. Just looking at the fact that she had been absent-minded recently, you could tell how embarrassed she was by this incident.

"Me? I..." Lan Nuoling was a little hesitant.

It is impossible not to feel heartbroken when being betrayed, and the one who betrayed her is her most trusted good sister. However, she is the regent of Minglan Kingdom and cannot show her weakness.

So she tried her best to control her emotions, but occasionally when she was free, she would recall the years they had spent together.

I originally thought that Xu Tianze would definitely not let Li Yao go. Just looking at the fact that Li Yi is still unconscious, I can understand this.

So when Xu Tianze said that, she was already prepared to be rejected. Who knew that in the end Xu Tianze would actually give her the right to make the decision.

This made her, the famous regent, somewhat stunned and at a loss.

Xu Tianze felt helpless when he saw Lan Nuoling like this. He knew that this person would definitely not let go so easily. Now he saw that it was indeed the case.

"Since you can't make up your mind, then just go and meet them. You have to find out why they changed their mind." Xu Tianze could only give Lan Nuoling some advice.

"What you said makes sense. Let's go and see what they say when the time comes." A glimmer of light flashed in Lan Nuoling's eyes, but there was some fatigue behind it.

"It's almost New Year's Eve, and it's time to go to the palace. You have to go with me, so be careful when you do that." Lan Nuoling suddenly remembered another purpose for coming here.

"I would have done it even if you didn't tell me. After all, the royal family of your Minglan Kingdom is not that clean." Xu Tianze accepted it quite well.

He was stuck here when he came. The most unavoidable thing in winter is to go to the palace during the New Year's Eve. Who knows what will happen at the palace banquet at that time.

If he was not Lan Nuoling's biological brother, he would not have to enter the palace, but unfortunately he was no longer in control of his own situation and could not just withdraw.

I can only continue walking down, and while hiding in the palace, watch the various wonderful performances in the Minglan Palace Banquet.

"It is said that something goes wrong every time there is a palace banquet. Why does the royal family hold palace banquets endlessly?" Xu Tianze rested his head on the small table, his mind beginning to wander.
