He just showed a smug smile on his face, but when he suddenly realized that this was not Lan Shuang's voice, but a man's, his face froze.
He turned around suddenly, and his head buzzed for a moment.
Lan Shuang also looked along with everyone else, and saw a tall and slender figure coming against the light. The sunlight cast a dazzling halo behind him, which made his figure even more prominent, with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs. Of course, the most eye-catching thing was the glittering star-sea epaulettes on his shoulders, which was the symbol of the Federation General. This blue gem was very rare in the Federation and was directly monopolized by the military. It was only given to people with outstanding merits as an honor and reward.
The number of people in the entire federation who possess this epaulette can be counted on ten fingers.
Someone exclaimed, "Is it General Nian Siyan?"
Lan Shuang smiled, she came just in time.
After that exclamation, the entire hall fell silent, and everyone held their breath.
In such a tense atmosphere, the only sound you could hear was the "tapping" sound of Nian Siyan's military boots stepping on the floor. It seemed as if each step was stepping on one's heart, making one tremble with fear.
Lan Ping's hand, gripping the cane, trembled slightly. Why was he here? How much of what he had just said had he heard? Could he have heard everything?
He was nervous inside, but he remained calm on the surface. After all, he was a veteran and still had some psychological quality.
He greeted him with a smile, "General, your presence truly brings honor to my humble abode!"
The sunlight was left behind, and Nian Siyan's outline gradually became clear. He had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and a high nose bridge. He was obviously a very handsome face, which could easily make people like him. However, he pursed his lips habitually, which immediately gave him a sense of coldness that made people feel discouraged.
His cold gaze swept across everyone present, finally landing on Lan Shuang. His eyes softened almost imperceptibly, "Come here."
Everyone was stunned. Who was going there? Where were they going?
Who is he talking to?
Everyone looked at each other, and then they saw Lan Shuang in the corner suddenly move, and she walked straight towards Nian Siyan.
Everyone: “???”
Do these two people really know each other?
Although I had heard Lan Ping say before that the relationship between the two was unusual, that was just hearsay, and the feeling was still different from seeing it with my own eyes.
Even if they saw it with their own eyes, there were still people secretly hoping that Nian Siyan would immediately give Lan Shuang the cold shoulder and tell her to get out.
However, they were destined to be disappointed. Lan Shuang walked steadily to Nian Siyan and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Nian Siyan lowered his eyes and looked at her for a moment, then he placed his white-gloved hand on Lan Shuang's shoulder and pulled her to his side with a little force.
Du Qianping was originally standing next to him. Seeing this, he immediately took a step to the side without leaving a trace, allowing Lan Shuang and Nian Siyan to stand side by side.
Nian Siyan glanced at him, and Du Qianping was sure that he saw the word "satisfied" in it!
Lan Shuang raised her eyebrows, "Xiao Baba, is Nian Siyan here to support me?"
888 bit the handkerchief and asked, "What do you think?"
"But I thought he was only responsible for investigating the test report. I didn't plan on asking him to come in person. Why is he here now?"
The only insider, 888, silently wiped away the tears shed for the beautiful love and said with emotion: "Maybe he is worried about you? The general is really a good man."
Lan Shuang: “…”
What does it mean that you're more moved than I am? Are you such a sentimental system?
"General, what do you mean?" Lan Ping pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth.
Lan Bing untied her hand from Lan Ping and said with a proper smile, "If you have anything to say, why don't we sit down and talk. General, please—"
Nian Siyan didn't even look at her, only at Lan Ping. "Master Lan, before you ask me, I'd like to ask you first, what do you mean by medication? The Federation prohibits any non-medical personnel from using medication in improper ways. Judging from your tone just now, it seems that this is not the first time you have done this."
Lan Ping: “…”
He really heard it!
His mind raced, and he smiled awkwardly, "You misunderstood. I was just trying to scare her. I was joking. I'm the head of the Lan family. How could I possibly do something so illegal?"
"Oh? Really?" Nian Siyan looked at him indifferently, obviously not quite believing it.
Lan Ping was certain he had no evidence and insisted, "If the General is worried, you can have someone investigate. My Lan family is innocent."
Du Qianping stood beside Nian Siyan and curled the corners of his lips imperceptibly.
Why are you in such a hurry? Isn't it only a matter of time before they investigate you?
"No hurry, let's talk about another thing first."
Nian Siyan did not dwell on this issue. These could be discussed later. The most important thing now was to resolve Lan Shuang's issue.
He turned his head and asked Lan Shuang: "Do you have anything else here?"
Lan Shuang was puzzled: "No, I'm penniless."
I don’t know what’s so funny about this sentence, but it made Nian Siyan curl his lips.
"This is better. We can just go."
"Ah?" Lan Shuang had a vague guess, but was not very sure.
When Nian Siyan turned to look at Lan Ping, his smile disappeared completely. "I want to take Lan Shuang away. Since you don't want to support her, then I will make the decision. She will have nothing to do with your Lan family from now on."
"What?" Lan Ping laughed in anger. "General, even if you are an admiral, you have no right to interfere in other people's family affairs, right? Lan Shuang is my daughter. How I treat her is my business, not yours. Besides, I haven't treated her harshly. What's wrong with me arranging a suitable marriage for her?"
"Of course I have the right. Federal law stipulates that if an envoy's life or other fundamental interests are threatened, he or she can seek help from any agency or military personnel."
Nian Siyan said slowly, "Furthermore, federal regulations prohibit forcing free people to marry, including their parents. What you just said is illegal. Master Lan, I hope you have time to read more about the legal provisions. It will be very helpful to your future."
"As for the suitable marriage you mentioned..." Nian Siyan curled his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes, but instead gave people goose bumps.
"Is the proof the test report? What a coincidence, I have a copy here too."
Nian Siyan raised his hand as he spoke, and lightly pressed down with his fingers. Du Qianping immediately came forward with a stack of papers, "Master Lan, please take a good look."
Lan Ping looked at them doubtfully, then reached out to take it. Lan Bing, who was standing next to him, was startled and subconsciously turned to look at Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan clutched the sofa tightly, pretending to be calm. It was impossible. They couldn't possibly find out!
Lan Bing nervously approached Lan Ping, "What is it?"
"Isn't it still the same test report?" Lan Ping took a glance and saw that the first one was still the matching report of Lan Shuang and Zhong Yue.
