Chapter 91
Right now, An's father is frantically contacting Lu Yunyan to plead for his stupid son.
Because if Lu Yunyan really wanted to get to the bottom of this, such a serious situation would be enough to send the other party to prison for several years.
So there is no doubt that An Nuo must be part of An's father's plea.
Things like "for An Nuo's sake", "after all, he is An Nuo's biological brother" - these words made An Nuo want to vomit after reading them, but An Nuo's father said them with a clear conscience.
An Nuo wanted to pull him out through the phone screen and stomp him hundreds of times.
Unable to control the pent-up anger burning in his chest, An Nuo had already pressed the word "get out", but before he was about to click send, there was a sound at the office door and Lu Yunyan came in.
An Nuo paused, stopping before the last step.
Lu Yunyan walked in: "Are you awake? It seems you didn't sleep very long today."
At first, Lu Yunyan didn't notice anything was wrong. He explained to An Nuo in a cheerful tone, "A client came in unexpectedly, so I went to meet him... What's wrong with you? What happened?"
But as the distance between them continued to shorten and he walked in front of An Nuo, Lu Yunyan noticed that An Nuo's face looked not very good.
And he was holding his cell phone.
Lu Yunyan didn't feel guilty, but he was a little puzzled. He was innocent and abided by the A-level ethics. God could bear witness to it. There was no way he had anything shameful. Why did An Nuo have such an expression?
Then, walking to the side, An Nuo held up the news about An's father in front of him: "...What is this?!"
No matter whether he felt ashamed or how much shame he had, Lu Yunyan's concealment of the truth from him was a fact that did not require any justification, and An Nuo had to get to the bottom of it first.
"...You've been in contact with him for so long, and you even had business dealings with him privately. You actually hid such an important matter from me for so long. Why didn't you tell me?!"
Lu Yunyan was slightly panicked for about a second, then quickly calmed down: "This is not a big deal, it's nothing at all. I was planning to tell you about it soon."
His ability to make up lies with his eyes open is still improving.
"Who are you kidding! Do you think I will believe you?"
Unfortunately, An Nuo is too familiar with this routine to be fooled again.
"If you could speak, you should have said it long ago!"
"Listen to me, it's true."
But the most crucial part of this routine is that the user must have firm beliefs, and no matter how much doubt he encounters, he must speak with an attitude that he himself believes it.
"I didn't tell you at first because we were still getting to know each other. I was afraid that if I told you rashly, it would only cause you unnecessary embarrassment."
It sounds like the truth.
"Afterwards, they settled down and didn't bother you again, so there was no need to tell anyone. Telling them would only cause more trouble, wouldn't it? Anyway, I'm not at a disadvantage, so I'll just consider it a trade-off for some peace."
“…”
Lu Yunyan was calm and spoke in a gentle tone. He sat down calmly and pulled An Nuo to sit on his lap.
It was as if he was patiently comforting his unreasonable little wife.
This really made An Nuo feel a little self-doubt... Why was Lu Yunyan so calm and composed? Was it really because his reaction was too extreme and exaggerated?
"When the accident happened, it was also the day when I just found out you were pregnant. It was still in the early stages of pregnancy. How could I dare to tell you? You must have been very emotional."
"I've been really planning to confess to you lately. Seeing how resolute I am, they'll definitely try again with you."
An Nuo immediately understood: "Because you found that you couldn't hide it anymore, you had to tell me, right?"
Lu Yunyan chuckled: "Baby guessed it right, so smart."
“…”
An Nuo really wanted to hit him.
But after being coaxed half-truthfully, An Nuo was already confused and believed what Lu Yunyan said.
"This isn't a big deal, so don't get angry."
Lu Yunyan held An Nuo in one hand and placed the other on his belly. He said softly, "Look, they haven't come to find you yet, but you're already angry just by hearing about them... Although it was wrong for me to hide it, judging by the outcome, this is the best approach."
An Nuo denied it: "Although I would be angry, if you had told me earlier, I would be less angry. At least I wouldn't be angry because of your concealment."
"Then see if my worrying about you can offset that a little bit?"
“…”
Lu Yunyan was too good at talking, and An Nuo was still shrouded in anger and shame, so his mind was not as fast as his.
"Okay baby, don't be angry anymore, give me a kiss, and forgive me?"
Lu Yunyan spoke softly, taking every step carefully, and finally moved his face closer and kissed An Nuo on the cheek.
An Nuo was still angry, but Lu Yunyan coaxed her so much that she didn't know what to do. She pouted silently, feeling unhappy.
After two minutes, he asked, "...So what are you going to do? Are you going to deal with it severely? Are you really going to send that idiot to jail?"
Lu Yunyan asked: "What do you think?"
An Nuo said viciously, "If we really want to send him to jail, of course we will."
This big idiot really bullied him a lot in the past.
An Nuo wished his father could go in with him.
"By the way, before he goes to jail, remember to make him pay back all the compensation and fines."
An Nuo said, "There's actually not much money in the company right now. If we lose all that money, it would be like working for several years for nothing. If we let that idiot go to jail, I guarantee my biological father will be devastated."
Lu Yunyan chuckled: "So cruel?"
"As I should." An Nuo looked at Lu Yunyan, "Why, are you still planning to let them go?"
Lu Yunyan didn't say anything.
An Nuo almost jumped up from Lu Yunyan's legs: "...Are you really going to let them go?"
Lu Yunyan quickly pushed An Nuo back, and one of his hands seemed to be welded to An Nuo's stomach.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, don't scare the child."
An Nuo slapped Lu Yunyan's hand away and immediately started to find fault: "The child is more important, right?"
Lu Yunyan knew he was looking for trouble: "Listen to my argument."
An Nuo looked at him seriously, frowning slightly: "It's not funny to say this now."
Lu Yunyan then said, "Just listen and I will explain it to you slowly."
"snort."
An Nuo didn't say yes, but with this hum, he allowed Lu Yunyan to continue.
"I'm not going to let them go, I just want to do it in a better way."
As soon as An Nuo heard it, he knew that Lu Yunyan was going to use his superb negotiation skills. He would definitely be confused by his words, and in the end he would applaud him.
An Nuo remained rational: "Don't use the negotiation skills you use on others on me."
Lu Yunyan was thick-skinned enough that he didn't feel embarrassed about being seen through, but he was determined to keep talking nonsense.
"I'm only telling you the truth."
"snort."
Lu Yunyan really wanted to reach out and pinch An Nuo's nose. She had been whining more and more recently. It seemed that she was relying on her pregnancy and the support of her parents to become spoiled and arrogant.
But still so cute.
Lu Yunyan liked the way he showed this spoiled look, and he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart for taking good care of the person.
"I can get to the bottom of this and send that idiot you mentioned to jail, but if I really do that, have you thought about the consequences?"
“…”
What are the consequences of being sent to jail?
An Nuo thought angrily, but after thinking for a few more seconds, he realized that the consequences Lu Yunyan mentioned must be related to him.
"I asked a lawyer, and even if I were to be put in jail, I'd be out in two to three years at most."
"What about two or three years from now? What if they hold a grudge and take drastic measures against you?"
As Lu Yunyan spoke, he pulled An Nuo's hand and kissed the back of his hand.
"But if I reserve the right to pursue legal action and don't reach a settlement with them, I can sue them at any time within the next ten years. This will be like a knife hanging over their necks, making them constantly on edge, not knowing when the blow will fall. When they see me, they will be as obedient as a dog."
“…”
An Nuo wanted to remain rational and not be persuaded by Lu Yunyan, but when Lu Yunyan said that, he immediately felt that it made sense.
"Actually, once you're in, two or three years will pass very quickly. And when the time comes, just accept it. There's nothing to be afraid of."
"The most terrifying thing is the infinite magnification and imagination of the unknown from within. As long as this incident hasn't happened and hasn't passed, he won't be at peace."
"Isn't this better? They'll stay quiet for a long time, and they won't dare do anything to you. They'll just keep their tails between their legs."
An Nuo pursed his lips: "...That's true, but don't they have to pay any price?"
"Of course they'll lose money."
“…That’s too cheap for them.”
Lu Yunyan smiled and said, yes, how could it not be considered a bargain for them?
But there is no way. An Nuo was born in such a family. He has no choice and cannot change it. Once he is born, he is bound to it forever.
If An Nuo could stay away from them, they would never find him again. Or if the An family had no connections, Lu Yunyan could just spend some money to get rid of them - that would still be a possibility.
It just so happens that the An family does have some strength. Although it is not as strong as before, it is not completely declined.
If they really want to do something disgusting and make up some nonsense, it must be aimed at An Nuo.
Outsiders don’t know what the relationship between An Nuo and his family is like, so maintaining a false peace on the surface is also a good thing for An Nuo.
Otherwise, if such a bloody and tortuous inside story were exposed, coupled with their marriage relationship, I wonder how many people would talk about An Nuo after dinner.
If Lu Yunyan could think of these things, how could An Nuo, the person involved, not think of them?
Not only this accident, but also Lu Yunyan was willing to give the business to An's father in order to give An Nuo a peaceful life.
An Nuo sighed: "...I'm so stupid."
“…”
However, these three simple words made Lu Yunyan really panic.
It was okay for An Nuo to lose his temper and act willful towards him, Lu Yunyan could always coax him, but An Nuo suddenly attacked him, which showed that he was starting to waste his energy.
"What's wrong? Why are you saying this suddenly?"
Lu Yunyan hugged him tightly and coaxed him softly like a child: "How can you be stupid? You are such a smart baby, don't say that to yourself."
An Nuo sighed again: "I blocked my dad a long time ago...but he still contacted me a few times later, but I just ignored him."
"I thought I was being tough and my resistance was effective... but he ended up going to find you, and I didn't know anything."
He thought he had performed well and that Father An would not be able to gain any benefit from his marriage to Lu Yunyan.
Unexpectedly, the truth was that An's father bypassed him and went directly to find Lu Yunyan.
He thought he had gained peace through his own resistance, but in fact, Lu Yunyan was making sacrifices for him.
An Nuo just felt that he was useless and couldn't even raise his head in front of Lu Yunyan.
Lu Yunyan hugged him: "I don't blame you, they are just too mean."
“…But I feel so useless.”
Although it has always been useless, at this moment, this emotion has reached an unprecedented peak.
Lu Yunyan quickly stroked An Nuo's fur and changed the subject to cheer him up: "How could that be? You've tried your best and done very well."
“Now everything I do is done well.”
Lu Yunyan said, "Even the branch office has a very good opinion of you. You know, everyone prefers to contact you for work."
An Nuo sneered: "That's because I'm easy to talk to and bully."
Absolute self-awareness, right on the mark.
Lu Yunyan was even less likely to admit it: "Can you be more confident and stop thinking about yourself like this?"
An Nuo didn't say anything.
"Okay, don't be angry or sad, just give me a kiss, okay?"
Sometimes Lu Yunyan also felt that he was really a worthless person. An Nuo looked so depressed, but his mind was full of dirty thoughts.
But there's really no way.
Because of his pregnancy, he was forced to abstain from sex for two months.
Once the early stages of pregnancy were over and the doctor said there was no problem, he was always distracted whenever he held An Nuo in his arms.
