I don’t know what Zhao Xian and Huo Hui said to each other, but I was too far away to hear anything.
The two of them didn't chat for long and soon hailed a taxi and left.
I was concerned about Yan Meng's safety, so I told Li Tao to keep an eye on Zhao Xian, opened the car door and got out.
Li Tao followed the instructions and drove to catch the taxi that Zhao Xian was in, while I took a taxi to Yan's house.
Standing in front of the Yan family villa, I felt nervous.
Logically, I shouldn't get involved, but now Yan Meng is in danger because of me, and I must be responsible for him.
I took a deep breath, mustered my courage, and pressed the doorbell of the villa while pretending to be calm.
The door was opened, and I told the servant that I was looking for Yan Lirong. Although the servant was stunned for a moment, he still brought me in.
I walked in tentatively and saw Yan Lirong sitting alone in the living room.
The huge villa seemed empty, and there was a sense of depression in the emptiness.
Yan Lirong looked at me and said, "Lan Shan, we meet again. I never thought you would be so interested in our family affairs."
His words were full of meaning. I calmed myself down and said politely, as if nothing had happened, "I heard that Yan Meng also returned to the Yan family, so I came to visit you specially."
I glanced upstairs and didn't see Huo Hui or Yan Meng.
I swallowed and asked with a smile, "Is Yan Meng here? I just happened to have something about a company project and wanted to talk to him about it."
"He hasn't come back." Yan Lirong answered quickly, his tone calm and his expression frank, not looking like he was lying at all.
I hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I'll come back another day."
I was about to walk out when I unexpectedly saw the umbrella Yan Meng was holding when he got off the plane at the entrance.
I was shocked.
Yan Meng clearly came back, Yan Lirong was lying!
He deliberately lied to me. Yan Meng should be at Yan's house now, and it is very likely that he has locked him up.
If so, that means he must have seen the paternity test.
My heart was pounding. As it concerned Yan Meng's safety, I had to turn around and force myself to smile at Yan Lirong.
"If you don't mind, can I wait for him here?"
Although it was just an inquiry, I was sure that Yan Lirong would not directly chase me away, as that would be even more problematic.
Sure enough, Yan Lirong nodded and agreed: "Sit in the living room and wait. I'll ask the servant to make you a pot of good tea."
I sat down some distance away from him. The servant brought me tea, which I sipped and exchanged a few words with him. I felt extremely tormented inside.
I listened carefully to the movements in the villa, but didn't hear anything unusual.
Seeing Yan Lirong drinking tea calmly and without any intention of rushing me to leave, I had a vague suspicion in my heart.
Did I guess wrong? Is Yan Meng really not here?
Just then, my cell phone rang. It was Li Tao calling.
I stood up and was about to go out to answer it, but was stopped by Yan Lirong.
"There's no outsider here, so just answer it here. There's no need to go out on purpose."
My smile froze slightly, I turned down the volume and answered the call.
Li Tao reported: "Zhao Xian accompanied Huo Hui to the airport, and Zhao Xian also picked up her ticket. It seems that she is going back to Beijing."
I was shocked, my scalp tingled, and I subconsciously looked up at Yan Lirong.
It is impossible for Zhao Xian to return empty-handed. She must have met Yan Lirong.
Yan Lirong must have already known about Yan Meng's true life experience.
