Qi Yuan didn't react and asked in confusion: "What news?"
Jiang Han: "..."
He stared at Qi Yuan expressionlessly for a while. Qi Yuan suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, yes, Lan Shuang has returned to the manor. Uncle Pan, the housekeeper, sent me a message this afternoon saying that everything has been settled. Lan Shuang went back to her room, ordered food, and hasn't come out since. She must have gone to bed."
Jiang Han: "..."
The corners of his lips suddenly formed a straight line, "Have you been sleeping until now?"
Qi Yuan: "That... I don't know. Uncle Pan didn't say anything after that. I guess Lan Shuang just stayed in her room and didn't come out to do anything."
After he said that, he stared at Jiang Han's face for a moment, trying to guess what he was thinking, but he couldn't tell anything. Jiang Han just stared at the computer in front of him without saying a word.
Qi Yuan didn't know whether to continue speaking.
After a long while, Jiang Han said, "I understand. You continue to keep an eye on the Jiang family and notify me immediately of any developments."
"good."
Qi Yuan sat back at his desk, staring at the two computers, typing instructions from time to time.
Jiang Han became more and more annoyed as he listened to the voices in his ears. After thinking about it, he turned on the surveillance system at home and found the surveillance in Lan Shuang's room, intending to see what she had been doing all afternoon.
However, there were only surveillance cameras in the living room, and he couldn't see what was happening in the bedroom. Lan Shuang rarely came out, but from the few pictures that were available, she seemed quite leisurely. She would eat something and drink some tea, then turn on the TV to watch idol dramas, and when she got tired of watching, she would lie on the sofa and play some stupid games.
He didn't seem to feel uneasy because he was in an unfamiliar environment and couldn't see himself. It seemed that he was the only one who was irritated.
No, it wasn't like that, he was definitely the only one feeling awkward.
Jiang Han turned off the surveillance screen with mixed emotions.
What was he doing? This was clearly a crucial moment to conquer the Jiang family, so why was he distracted by focusing on a woman whose identity was a mystery?
I'm totally confused.
He exhaled, pinched his eyebrows, forced these unnecessary emotions out of his mind, and continued with the work at hand.
He did not return to the manor that night.
…
The next day, Lan Shuang woke up from her messy dream when she heard the sound of a car horn. She walked barefoot on the carpet, walked to the window, lifted a corner of the curtain and took a look. A black modified car slowly drove into the manor. From her angle, she could only see someone getting out of the car, and then the side face flashed by and disappeared.
But she still recognized that it was Jiang Han. This person had stayed in the company all night?
Just as she was lost in thought, the phone in the living room rang. She put on her slippers and walked out quickly. "Hello?"
"Miss Lan, I hope I didn't disturb your sweet dream."
"Without Uncle Pan, why are you looking for me?"
"Yes, Master Jiang is back, so please come downstairs for dinner."
"knew."
Lan Shuang hung up the phone, went to wash up, changed into light gray home clothes and went out.
When I went downstairs, I saw Jiang Han sitting on the sofa in the living room. He was cold enough to begin with, and now the words "Keep Away" were written all over his body.
Lan Shuang raised her eyebrows. Did something happen, or did she simply not sleep well?
Hearing the footsteps, Qi Yuan looked over and greeted her with dark circles under his eyes: "Good morning."
"Are you stealing chickens again?"
Lan Shuang walked to the side and sat down on the single sofa. Wen Yan followed her downstairs and was stunned when he saw Qi Yuan. "Is it that the company's affairs are difficult to handle?"
"Yeah, there have been quite a few people who have been making moves lately, secretly doing things. Even though we've caught a lot of fish, don't we still have to deal with those loopholes and messes?"
Qi Yuan collapsed on the sofa as soon as he sat down.
Lan Shuang looked at Jiang Han and saw him drinking a cup of black coffee with a calm expression. She sighed, "It's not easy to be a boss."
Jiang Han paused and looked at her.
"Breakfast is ready, you can go to the restaurant." Uncle Pan came over and said with a smile.
"Very good."
Qi Yuan suddenly stood up, his eyes shining. Jiang Han put down his coffee cup, stood up, and walked towards the restaurant without saying a word. Lan Shuang followed behind with a puzzled look in her eyes.
The meal was unusually silent. After finishing, Lan Shuang put down her cutlery and said, "Take your time eating. I'll go upstairs first."
"etc--"
Jiang Han suddenly called her and said the first words since they met.
Lan Shuang looked back at him in confusion, "Master Jiang, what are your instructions?"
"We'll go to the Jiang family's old house tonight, and you follow me."
After saying this, he stood up and walked to the other side without looking at her again. This was not a discussion at all, but just a notification.
Qi Yuan and Wen Yan looked at each other, somewhat confused.
Lan Shuang didn't think there was anything wrong and even asked Qi Yuan, "Is there anything particular about how I dress?"
Qi Yuan: "Ah... I'll ask Master Jiang later."
"Okay, I'll go upstairs then."
Lan Shuang got into the elevator, went to the second floor and entered her room. Without stopping in the living room, she went straight into the bedroom.
Qi Yuan touched his chin and said, "These two are getting weirder and weirder."
Wen Yan finished the last sip of milk and stood up slowly. "Just think about it with your straight-man brain. When you can figure it out, you won't be single anymore."
Qi Yuan: “…”
…
At seven o'clock, Wen Yan knocked on the door and said, "Miss Lan, I'm here to bring you some clothes."
Lan Shuang opened the door, and Wen Yan was followed by several servants. "Come in."
The dress delivered this time was still a dress, but not as grand as last time. It was a simple black suspender dress with a very delicate cut, showing off Lan Shuang's figure to the greatest extent. The material had an excellent drape and was quite heavy to hold. The matching jewelry was a pearl necklace and earrings, and the shoes were also black, with only a touch of red on the back.
These really hit Lan Shuang's fancy. She couldn't help but ask, "Who picked these?"
Wen Yan smiled softly: "Master Jiang."
Lan Shuang was stunned for a moment, then raised her eyebrows, a smile on her lips quite meaningful: "It is indeed very tasteful."
"Miss, change quickly. I'll wait for you outside."
With that, Wen Yan took the servants out.
"Hey, some people are just stubborn."
Lan Shuang picked up the dress and went into the dressing room. Half an hour later, she came out dressed.
Wen Yan's eyes flashed with surprise, and he admired her unabashedly: "This dress suits you very well, Miss Lan. Compared to Wen Wan, you are more suitable for such a cool and elegant style."
"Thanks for the compliment, let's go."
Lan Shuang followed Wen Yan downstairs with her handbag. Jiang Han was already waiting in the hall. He had his back to them and turned around casually when he heard the sound of high heels. Then he was stunned.
Lan Shuang smiled back, looking like an elegant black swan princess.
