Chapter 136 I Remember Knowing You Is My Happiness
The orange sunset gradually fades away and night is approaching.
A car drove into the manor and stopped steadily in front of a villa. A tall figure got out of the car.
"Master, you're back."
"Um."
After Yan Hengmiao entered the room, he subconsciously looked for Wu Lan, but he couldn't see the little figure anywhere he looked.
Butler Liang was very good at reading people's expressions. Before Yan Hengmiao could say anything, he said, "Young Master Lan should be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw another car driving into the manor outside the window, but five minutes passed and there was still no sign of Wu Lan.
Butler Liang was a little confused and called the driver to ask about the situation.
"I'm sorry, Master, Butler Liang, I forgot to report it. Master Lan told me that he was going to have dinner with Miss Qin and asked me to come back first." The driver knew that he had made a mistake. He was a little afraid to look at Yan Hengmiao and lowered his head.
"Okay, got it."
Seeing Yan Hengmiao frown, Butler Liang thought for a moment and said, "Master Lan hasn't played with his friends in a long time. I heard that Miss Qin is a very cheerful person. I think Master Lan will be in a good mood when he is with her."
Yan Hengmiao didn't say anything, but he felt uncomfortable whenever he thought of Wu Lan and Qin Yuxin being together.
Ever since Wu Lan met Qin Yuxin, he had left him behind several times to go play with Qin Yuxin. He always felt that Qin Yuxin was not that simple, and he always felt that there was a hint of hostility in the way he looked at him.
But thinking about how Wu Lan hadn't met up with her friends since the car accident, he thought he should be more tolerant and not be so stingy.
Yan Hengmiao hummed and asked the driver, "Where are they going to eat?"
"The place for dinner was chosen by Miss Qin. It seems to be near Jinpuhuan Shopping Center. I didn't ask for details..."
Seeing Yan Hengmiao's expression turn serious, the driver quickly added, "I did offer to take them to the hotel, but they refused. I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Yan Hengmiao took out his cell phone with a serious face and was about to contact Wu Lan when suddenly a piece of the latest news popped up on his phone.
At 6:45 PM this evening, a serious traffic accident occurred outside Jinpuhuan Shopping Center. A private car collided with a passenger vehicle, resulting in three serious injuries and one minor injury.
A similar experience suddenly came to Yan Hengmiao's mind, his heart skipped a beat, and his face suddenly became stiff.
He looked at the driver next to him and said in a hoarse voice, "You just said that Xiaolan went to the vicinity of Jinpuhuan Shopping Mall?"
"Yes, sir."
The driver didn't know what had happened. He only saw Yan Hengmiao walk out with a changed expression after he finished speaking, his steps were disorderly, and he didn't have his usual composure.
Seeing this, Butler Liang realized something and immediately notified people to follow Yan Hengmiao.
*
Due to an accident outside Jinpuhuan Shopping Mall, the nearby roads were severely congested and the car we called could not get in, so we had to cancel the order.
There was no choice, so the two had to go back to the mall and find a restaurant with good ratings to eat.
Qin Yuxin kept talking, but soon noticed that Wu Lan was a little absent-minded and accidentally ate a small piece of ginger.
The taste of ginger stimulated her tongue, and her snow-white little face immediately wrinkled, with Wu Lan showing a painful expression.
"Are you okay? Drink some water to dilute the taste."
Wu Lan took the warm water handed to her by Qin Yuxin and gulped down two big mouthfuls. The ginger taste in her mouth finally became much lighter.
Qin Yuxin stroked Wu Lan's back with some worry, frowning slightly, and asked in a gentle voice, "What were you thinking about just now?"
"I wasn't thinking about anything, I was just distracted."
Wu Lan shook her head, put down the cup, and smiled at Qin Yuxin a little embarrassedly: "Sister Yuxin, let's continue eating."
"All right."
Seeing Wu Lan recover, Qin Yuxin said nothing more, but just kept picking up food for him, "Try this, it tastes very good."
"Thank you, Sister Yuxin."
Wu Lan picked up the shrimp and chewed it slowly, her thoughts inadvertently returning to the scene of the car accident she had just encountered.
When he saw the injured people being carried out of the car, a picture suddenly emerged in his mind.
A month ago, in the car accident, he was also carried out of the car like the injured person. The man holding him was tall and his warm embrace was as familiar as always. Even the voice calling in his ear was very familiar.
He wanted to see the face of the man holding him, but his vision was always blocked by a white mist.
Although I couldn't see the other person's face clearly, I subconsciously knew who the man was.
In addition to this memory, there are other...
"Xiao Lan, is your phone vibrating?"
Wu Lan came back to her senses and noticed that her phone was vibrating. She picked it up and saw that the call had just ended. There were dozens of missed calls and new messages on the screen, all from the same person.
Wu Lan was stunned for a moment and was about to call Yan Hengmiao back when the other party called again.
The call was connected, and Yan Hengmiao's anxious voice came from the microphone: "Where are you?"
Although a little surprised by Yan Hengmiao's tone, Wu Lan still answered first and said the name of the restaurant.
On the phone, Yan Hengmiao was breathing heavily, as if he was running. His steady voice became flustered and anxious: "I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Lan looked puzzled and exchanged glances with Qin Yuxin in confusion.
"Who's calling?"
Just as Wu Lan was about to say Yan Hengmiao's name, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded behind her.
The next second, he heard Yan Hengmiao's voice.
"Xiao Lan!"
The person on the phone appeared in front of her. Wu Lan blinked in a daze. Before she could say anything, Yan Hengmiao hugged her tightly.
Wu Lan rested his head on Yan Hengmiao's chest, and he could clearly hear the sound of his heart beating hard. The man's unsteady breathing sounded above his head, and this familiar feeling seemed to bring back the scene when he was carried out of the car.
"Thank goodness you're okay."
It was not until he held Wu Lan in his arms that Yan Hengmiao could finally let go of his anxious heart.
God knows how scared he was.
When he learned that Wu Lan appeared at the scene of the car accident, he was completely confused and worried that what happened a month ago would happen again.
The car accident made Wu Lan forget many things, including him. Now that Wu Lan has finally remembered many things, even though she still doesn't remember him, her condition has improved a lot and she is no longer as resistant to him.
He didn't dare to think about what he would do if the accident happened again.
Fortunately, Wu Lan is fine.
Wu Lan felt Yan Hengmiao's hand trembling slightly. He raised his head curiously and looked at him: "Why are you here?"
"I'm worried about you. There was a car accident nearby. I'm scared..."
Yan Hengmiao didn't finish his words, but Wu Lan understood. He nodded in understanding, feeling a sudden warmth in his heart.
Yan Hengmiao's entry made quite a noise, and he was followed by several tall bodyguards in black suits. Many people in the restaurant were looking at them.
Qin Yu propped up her chin thoughtfully as she looked at the two people hugging each other. She then glanced at the bodyguards behind Yan Hengmiao and the eyes of the people around him. Her red lips curled up, "Did Young Master Yan come here specially to dine with us? I've never seen such a grand occasion before. It really broadens my horizons."
Hearing the sarcasm in Qin Yu's words, Yan Hengmiao frowned slightly and released the hug. He was displeased, but his expression remained silent. With a forced smile, he said, "Since Miss Qin has invited me to dine with you, I will not hesitate."
He asked the bodyguards behind him to leave, and sat next to Wu Lan. He calmly asked the waiter to add a set of tableware and some dishes.
I don’t know if Wu Lan was thinking too much, but he always felt that the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little weird since Yan Hengmiao came.
Qin Yuxin, who had been smiling brightly, put away her smile after Yan Hengmiao sat down. She acted as if she didn't see Yan Hengmiao, chatting with Wu Lan while picking up food for her.
But this time, many of the dishes were eliminated by Yan Hengmiao.
"Ms. Qin, Xiaolan doesn't like celery. You should eat by yourself. I will take good care of Xiaolan." Yan Hengmiao had a polite smile on his face, but he took away all the dishes that Qin Yuxin brought over without any hesitation.
Looking at Yan Hengmiao's annoying face, Qin Yuxin's mood became worse and worse, but she forced herself to hold it back and didn't show it in front of Wu Lan.
After dinner, Yan Hengmiao suggested that Qin Yuxin could be sent back, but as expected, Qin Yuxin refused.
The corners of Yan Hengmiao's mouth curled up slightly after being rejected, but his eyes soon turned cold.
Looking at Qin Yuxin coldly as he kissed Wu Lan on the face without permission like a bandit, Yan Hengmiao exuded a low pressure all over his body.
After Qin Yuxin left, she immediately took out a tissue and carefully wiped the lipstick marks on Wu Lan's face over and over again until they were clean.
On the way back, he kept holding Wu Lan's hand, as if only by doing so could he prove that Wu Lan was by his side.
Yan Hengmiao is very sensitive to Wu Lan's emotional changes.
After returning home tonight, he found that Wu Lan had become unusually silent, as if she was worried about something and was in a bad mood.
Late at night, when he was about to enter Wu Lan's room like he did last night, he found the door locked, and Butler Liang appeared behind him with a glass of cold milk.
"Master, Master Lan said he won't drink milk anymore. And he also said..."
Butler Liang paused and lowered his voice deliberately: "Master Lan also said that if you sneak into his room again, he will never pay attention to you again."
Yan Hengmiao's face darkened and he nodded slightly.
"Okay, I understand. Go and rest first."
...
Yan Hengmiao discovered that Wu Lan had been avoiding him since she met Qin Yuxin that day.
For three whole days, Wu Lan did not take the initiative to talk to him. Whenever he approached her, she would always move away first, as if she was facing a flood or a beast.
But he also discovered that Wu Lan was always secretly watching him.
Several times he caught Wu Lan peeking, and just when he wanted to catch him, the little guy would slip away as nimbly as a kitten.
These days, Wu Lan still refused to be picked up and dropped off at the research institute in person.
He didn't dare go against Wu Lan's wishes, fearing that doing so would backfire and push Wu Lan further away.
Although he did not pick her up personally as agreed, Yan Hengmiao arranged a lot of spies so that he could know all of Wu Lan's movements at the first time.
Today, after Wu Lan came out of the research institute, she asked the driver to leave first, and Wu Lan got into Du Zhu's car and headed to a large shopping district in the city center.
When they arrived at a store, a completely black car was already parked on the side of the road. Yan Hengmiao was watching their every move through the car window.
This is a high-end jewelry store.
Through the glass inside the store, he saw Wu Lan and Du Zhu standing in front of the counter, and the SA inside took out something for them.
Yan Hengmiao knew this store.
Before Wu Lan lost her memory, he had attended a brand commercial event held by this store with Wu Lan. At that time, Wu Lan showed great interest in the store's designs, so he ordered two sets of jewelry for Wu Lan to wear for fun.
What puzzled Yan Hengmiao was why Wu Lan and Du Zhu appeared here.
Since he couldn't hear the conversation between the two, he could only see Wu Lan putting something on Du Zhu's hand, and a disgusting smile appeared on Du Zhu's face.
The relationship between the two seems to be very good.
Yan Hengmiao stared at them intently. When he saw Du Zhu touching Wu Lan's head, he immediately opened the car door and prepared to take Wu Lan home.
But soon, he came to his senses and forced himself to stop his impulse.
He closed the car door, his eyes became even gloomier, and countless ideas of how to deal with Du Zhu emerged in his mind. He planned to make Du Zhu disappear quietly.
Du Zhu didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that someone was staring at him. The gloomy look made him shiver.
He looked outside the store and noticed a black car driving away, noticing who was staring at him.
"Brother Zhu, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, I was just thinking about something." Du Zhu looked at Wu Lan and said, "You have a good eye. I'll choose this cufflink."
Seeing that Du Zhu liked it, Wu Lan smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
Wu Lan came to this store with Du Zhu today because Du Zhu said that he would attend an event in two days and needed a pair of matching cufflinks, so he wanted to ask him for help and some advice.
Du Zhu had helped him a lot during this period, and this was just a small request, so Wu Lan quickly agreed.
After choosing the cufflinks, Du Zhu was paying. Wu Lan was looking at the jewelry in other display counters with some curiosity, and was suddenly recognized by an SA.
"Mr. Wu, long time no see."
Wu Lan was looking for the other person in his memory, and when he heard SA say the word "ring", he remembered.
"Are you here to pick up the ring today?"
Wu Lan nodded hesitantly, and was then taken to a lounge by the SA. When he came out, he was holding a packed bag.
Du Zhu had already paid, and seeing Wu Lan holding something, he was a little curious: "What's that in your hand?"
"A gift I forgot."
Hearing this, Du Zhu raised his eyebrows slightly. Seeing that Wu Lan didn't say anything more, he didn't ask any more questions. He smiled and said, "Then let's go. I'll take you back."
"Yes, please trouble Brother Zhu."
*
Return to the manor.
As soon as Wu Lan entered the room, she found that the atmosphere in the whole room was a little depressing. Everyone looked very nervous and cautious, as if they were afraid of something.
Wu Lan was a little confused and was about to go upstairs when she was stopped by Butler Liang.
Butler Liang hesitated to speak, glanced upstairs with a worried look, and whispered a reminder: "Young Master was not in a good mood when he came back today."
Wu Lan nodded in understanding.
After going upstairs, Wu Lan stood in front of her door.
After thinking for a moment, he turned his shoe and walked towards another room.
Standing in front of the door, he knocked gently. After waiting for a few seconds and seeing no response, he opened the door without permission.
The curtains in Yan Hengmiao's room were drawn, the light in the room was dim, and the air-conditioning was turned on very low. His feet felt cold, as if he had stepped into a devil's territory.
Wu Lan didn't see Yan Hengmiao at first glance.
When he took two steps closer, he found Yan Hengmiao sitting on the floor beside the bed with several bottles of foreign liquor on the floor and an empty glass in his hand.
Yan Hengmiao lowered his head, and the dim light in the room made it impossible to see the expression on his face, but even so, the oppressive and intimidating feeling he exuded made people feel cold.
Hearing someone intruding without permission, Yan Hengmiao didn't even raise his eyes and coldly spat out one word: "Get out!"
The magnetic voice was made hoarse and rough by alcohol, making it even more frightening.
Wu Lan paused, but soon walked closer again.
Hearing the footsteps approaching, Yan Hengmiao raised his eyelids unhappily and was about to get angry when he found that the person coming in was Wu Lan.
The gloomy and dark handsome face was stunned for a moment, and the invisible sharp oppression on his body suddenly disappeared. Yan Hengmiao wanted to hide the gloom on his face, but found that he failed.
He found it difficult to control his emotions. Jealousy was like a vine wrapped around his heart, squeezing it until it was twisted and deformed.
Wu Lan, whom he had loved for so many years, completely forgot about him after an accident. Even though he spent countless energy and efforts to make Wu Lan remember most things, she only forgot him.
It’s okay to forget about him.
He can get to know Wu Lan again and create new memories with her.
But the problem now is that Wu Lan is avoiding him and is unwilling to have any contact with him. Not only that, Wu Lan is also getting too close to other people, as if to exclude him from the world.
As soon as Yan Hengmiao closed his eyes, the scene of Wu Lan and Du Zhu together appeared in front of him, as well as the scene of Qin Yuxin kissing Wu Lan on the cheek last time.
Every scene forced him to want to kill.
Whether they were men or women, they were all competing with him for her. They all wanted to take Wu Lan away from him.
Since he was a child, he knew that Wu Lan was liked by many people. He had always been cautious and kept a close eye on Wu Lan, fearing that Wu Lan would be snatched away by someone else.
But what he didn't expect was that Wu Lan had lost her memory.
A sense of powerlessness that arose in vain surrounded him, and he was almost drowned in despair. At the same time, twisted jealousy and a crazy possessiveness surged in his heart.
Perhaps, he should take Wu Lan to a deserted place, hide her, and isolate her forever. That way, no one can snatch her away from him until Wu Lan remembers him again.
This thought has appeared countless times, but he suppressed it every time.
But today, when I saw Wu Lan smiling so sweetly at another man, this crazy thought arose again and kept circling in my mind.
He knew very well that this was a bad idea, but he had no other choice...
"Yan Hengmiao, are you drinking?"
The clear and pleasant voice of a young boy rang out, breaking through the gloomy and oppressive feeling in the room and causing ripples in Yan Hengmiao's heart.
Yan Hengmiao looked at the young man not far away, his eyes fell on Wu Lan's face.
On this pretty little face, he saw only curiosity, not a trace of fear or disgust. Those dark eyes were as clear as ever, like an angel.
Yan Hengmiao's hand holding the wine glass shook, and the glass fell to the floor with a clang.
The cup rolled until it stopped at Wu Lan's feet.
Wu Lan bent down and picked up the wine glass.
Smelling the residual alcohol in the wine glass, Wu Lan frowned and put it on the cabinet next to him.
The man sitting on the ground looked like a crawling beast, with a sharp look in his eyes that made people tremble, but Wu Lan was not afraid at all and was extremely brave.
He walked towards Yan Hengmiao and stood in front of Yan Hengmiao.
Like Yan Hengmiao, he sat on the floor, put the things in his hands aside, and looked at the other person with his head tilted.
Wu Lan didn't say anything, but quietly moved closer, sniffed the alcohol on Yan Hengmiao's body, and said with a pout: "Didn't you promise me to drink less?"
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have drunk."
Yan Hengmiao apologized subconsciously. Years of habit made him bow his head to Wu Lan easily, and he was worried about seeing a hint of disgust in Wu Lan's eyes.
Fortunately, Wu Lan's eyes were clear.
Hearing the apology, Wu Lan snorted softly. He glanced at the wine bottle on the ground and poked the other person with his finger, "Why did you drink so much?"
"Bad mood?"
Yan Hengmiao said nothing and lowered his head.
Wu Lan boldly reached out and lifted Yan Hengmiao's face, not worrying about offending him at all.
"Why aren't you talking?"
After a while, Yan Hengmiao's tightly closed thin lips opened slightly, and he said in an unusually hoarse voice: "Yes, I'm in a bad mood."
Yan Hengmiao's mind was affected by alcohol. He did not notice that Wu Lan was much bolder today, nor did he notice anything unusual.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the bag Wu Lan placed next to him, which had the logo of the high-end jewelry store on it.
Yan Hengmiao thought that this should be a gift from Du Zhu to Wu Lan.
The desire for destruction in his heart came over him again, and he wanted to completely destroy this gift and destroy Du Zhu at the same time.
Wu Lan didn't know what Yan Hengmiao was thinking. He noticed that he was staring at the bag next to him. He asked with a smile, "Guess what this is?"
"What is it?"
No matter what it is, he will destroy it and will never allow those damn wild men to show their goodwill in front of Wu Lan. He cannot tolerate anything in his eyes.
Wu Lan blinked, curled up the corners of her mouth, and took out two square black velvet boxes from her bag in front of Yan Hengmiao.
Square box.
Ring box.
After realizing that there was most likely a ring inside, Yan Hengmiao's face became even uglier. His entire heart was twisted and deformed by the overwhelming jealousy, and he could no longer control the jealousy in his heart.
"Ring? Was it given to you by Du Zhu?"
The sinister voice was filled with cold jealousy. Yan Hengmiao stared at the two damn ring boxes, his desire to destroy reached its peak, and veins on his arms were exposed.
Wu Lan heard the coldness in Yan Hengmiao's voice, but his expression remained unchanged and he nodded.
"It's a ring, but it wasn't given by Brother Zhu."
Yan Hengmiao felt extremely sad, especially when he heard Wu Lan's affectionate address to Du Zhu.
He was already thinking about how to tear Du Zhu into pieces, so he didn't hear the point of this sentence.
Stared at by Yan Hengmiao's cold eyes, Wu Lan frowned.
"Don't look at me like that, it's scary."
Wu Lan's soft, pale face puffed up slightly, and her lips were pouted. Her frown didn't relax until Yan Hengmiao put away his cold eyes.
With his beautiful eyebrows curved, he placed the ring box in Yan Hengmiao's hand and asked, "Open the box."
Although his heart was filled with jealousy and rage, Yan Hengmiao still opened the box with a gloomy face as Wu Lan requested.
Sure enough, there was a ring inside.
When he saw the familiar ring, he was stunned.
This ring is...
Wu Lan picked up another box, opened it carefully, and showed the ring inside to Yan Hengmiao.
"We agreed that you would be responsible for getting the ring back."
Wu Lan pouted and put the other box into Yan Hengmiao's hand, complaining a little, "You forgot everything."
"I......"
Yan Hengmiao was speechless for a moment. He and Wu Lan chose these two rings together as engagement rings.
But later Wu Lan had a car accident, and the sudden change made him forget about this matter for a while.
Seeing Yan Hengmiao had nothing to say, Wu Lan snorted lightly: "If I hadn't gone to get it back today, I don't know how long this pair of rings would have been in the store."
He acted as if everything was thanks to him, raised his chin, and glanced at Yan Hengmiao, obviously wanting to praise him.
Yan Hengmiao was well aware of every change in Wu Lan's expression, but his alcohol-influenced brain slowed his reaction. He opened his mouth and spoke in disbelief: "Xiao Lan, do you remember?"
"Did you remember me?"
Yan Hengmiao's voice was noticeably trembling. He was worried that this was all an illusion caused by drinking, and was afraid that Wu Lan would still forget him after she sobered up.
He couldn't accept this blow.
This huge drop would kill him.
Wu Lan could see that Yan Hengmiao was emotionally unstable, so he put away his arrogant look, looked at him seriously, and nodded slowly.
"I remember everything, and of course I remember you too."
He paused and whispered, "I've been thinking about a lot of things these days, which has caused my memory to be a little confused. It took me some time to sort it out slowly. I wasn't deliberately avoiding you."
Wu Lan looked into Yan Hengmiao's eyes and clearly saw his figure reflected in those deep eyes. There was only him in them.
There was something churning in Yan Hengmiao's eyes. Wu Lan felt a little guilty and lowered her eyes unnaturally.
Okay, actually he did avoid Yan Hengmiao on purpose.
Because he remembered that in the quick-transmigration world, Yan Hengmiao always bullied him in different ways, often bullying him to the point of tears, or bullying him so that his whole body was sore and painful. So he decided to punish Yan Hengmiao a little and hid from him for a few days.
But he had a good temper and a big heart. He only avoided Yan Hengmiao for a few days before forgiving the bad things Yan Hengmiao had done.
Thinking of this, Wu Lan muttered and wanted to explain, but was suddenly hugged tightly by Yan Hengmiao.
"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan..."
Yan Hengmiao's hug was so strong that Wu Lan was a little breathless. He patted the other's shoulder and wanted to escape, but suddenly felt a little wetness on his ear.
Glancing at Yan Hengmiao out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the man's eyes were red and slightly moist.
This was the first time Wu Lan saw Yan Hengmiao cry.
He paused, relaxed his body, and let Yan Hengmiao hold him tightly without struggling.
Wu Lan rubbed his head against the other's shoulder naturally. He listened to Yan Hengmiao calling his name over and over again, and he responded patiently over and over again.
Wu Lan buried herself in Yan Hengmiao's arms, tugged at his clothes, and whispered in a muffled voice, "I'm sorry, I only remembered you now."
"It doesn't matter."
Yan Hengmiao's eyes were red, and the excitement of regaining what he had lost sent ripples through his long-dormant heart. He hugged this frail body tightly in his arms, trying to melt Wu Lan into his body, never to be separated for the rest of his life.
He didn't blame Wu Lan for forgetting him, he was just afraid that Wu Lan would always forget him.
Fortunately, Wu Lan remembered everything.
"Xiao Lan, I love you."
"Knowing you is the greatest happiness of my life."
"Yeah, me too."
