"My identity has been revealed."
“If I really wanted to harm Xixi, you wouldn’t have the chance to stand here and question me now.”
Helan Yuan raised his eyes, met the gazes of the Luo family members with a calm expression, and gave them their final chance.
If these people continue to interfere between him and Xixi, we can indeed let them go today.
However, he wouldn't mind letting them have a normal accident happen where Xixi can't see it.
The air froze instantly.
Luo Ming's breath hitched, Madam Luo's fingertips dug into her palm, Luo Sheng clenched his fists, and Grandpa and Grandma Luo exchanged a glance.
He was threatening them.
"Hey everyone, don't be so serious!"
Zi Xi suddenly laughed out loud, ran over and tugged at He Lan Yuan's sleeve.
Her fingertips, smeared with barbecue sauce, left an greasy fingerprint on his pristine white shirt.
"So what if he's the leader?"
"The meat you grill is just as inedible as ever!"
Zi Xi deliberately dragged out the tone, a sly smile curving her lips.
Seeing Helan Yuan's slightly darkened expression, she immediately leaned closer with a grin: "But... I won't look down on you!"
"After all, we're going to be best friends for life!"
She patted him on the shoulder, acting like they were good buddies.
After saying that, she winked playfully at Helan Yuan, then turned to the Luo family and made an exaggerated face.
He Lanyuan's temples throbbed, and he suddenly felt inexplicably dissatisfied with his lifelong best friend.
The members of the Luo family looked at each other in bewilderment.
With this clown's banter, the tense atmosphere immediately eased.
The Luo family's tense expressions visibly relaxed. Although they were still a little awkward, they were at least no longer as hostile as before.
He Lanyuan used tweezers to turn the silver-scaled fish on the grill, his movements as precise as if he were disarming a bomb.
The fish skin gradually turned golden under the charcoal fire, and the oil dripped down, making a soft sizzling sound.
"About that lady named Ai Qingyan..."
"She built a new network of contacts at the affiliated college."
He placed the fish on the plate before speaking, his voice as calm as if he were reading a battle report. He first gave a report on his great achievements, then mentioned monitoring her current situation.
"You're so handsome!"
"Huh? But...didn't that Ai transfer schools with someone named Yuan Mao?"
Zi Xi was sprinkling seasoning on the mushrooms when she heard this and looked up. She felt as if she was listening to gossip and the person in question had disappeared.
"Thank you for the compliment, Xixi."
He Lanyuan used his military knife to remove the fish fins and began to tell the story of what happened after Ai Qingyan transferred schools.
Ai Qingyan and Yuan Mao did indeed land on Emerald Star, a planet near the main star, which was second only to the main star in terms of prosperity, in a spaceship.
Yuan Mao diligently carried her luggage, bustling around, his face mostly adorned with a perfectly gentle smile.
"I've already taken care of things at the affiliated college."
“My friend knows some professors who can help you get the best resources.”
He spoke softly, his fingers seemingly unintentionally touching her wrist.
Ai Qingyan smiled slightly, but her eyes were devoid of warmth.
Fool, does she really think she can't see through his intentions?
"Thank you, Brother Mao."
But she didn't expose him; she just said it softly.
In the days that followed, Yuan Mao seemed to have Ai Qingyan firmly in his grasp, and he did his best to help her.
