After the boy in the wheelchair left, Lan Jingtang turned around and sat back down in his chair.
He gulped down several glasses of water to calm his nerves and anxieties.
The man was clearly sitting in a wheelchair, and he spoke slowly and deliberately throughout the conversation. But the calmer he was, the more fearful and uneasy Lan Jingtang felt.
Anyone who is rejected would react with anger and resentment, but that person did not.
The longer one is disabled, the more impatient one becomes to get better, but that person just said there's no rush.
It's terrifying to think about.
Despite being the one in control, Lan Jingtang inexplicably felt a chill and fear.
This feeling made him uneasy. Lan Jingtang suffered from insomnia for several nights, feeling anxious and increasingly wanting to contact his benefactor.
His identity can no longer be hidden.

An Yuan'er lay motionless for three days, then became lively and energetic again.
She lay comfortably for the past three days, but she exhausted Yi Chenli, who had to coax her for everything.
Even the young eunuch sighed: Only a prince would have such patience with Miss An; if it were an ordinary person, they would have been driven crazy long ago.
An Yuan'er did not forget the important matter. For the past three days, she had instructed Shuangshuang to keep an eye on the movements of Lan Jingtang.
“Miss, I’ve been following Lan Jingtang for three days. Lan Jingtang is no simple man. He seems to have anticipated that someone would be following him. Every time he goes out, he splits up with Sanqi. One of them is responsible for covering him and deliberately goes in circles, while the other doesn’t go directly to the destination. Every time, he follows us to an alley and then disappears.”
"Didn't you get any useful information?"
They patted their thighs smugly: "They are clever, but they are doomed to be outmaneuvered by someone like me who is skilled in tracking. They are meticulous, and they will carefully check the carriage before setting off to make sure there are no problems. But they don't know anything about horses. I found the clues on the hooves."
An Yuan'er was delighted and encouraged her, "Shuangshuang is great. I won't treat you badly. I'll give you a little lady as a wife in the future."
Shuangshuang quickly waved her hand in refusal: "This is more of a punishment than a reward. Shuangshuang doesn't want a young lady."
Having witnessed the prince become infatuated with lust, the Shadow Guards had never been given away before in all their years of service.
The master dotes on Miss An, and she is no longer the aloof and ruthless person she once was. Shuangshuang doesn't want to become like that one day.
Seeing Shuangshuang's fierce refusal, An Yuan'er thought for a moment and suddenly said with understanding, "I understand. Then I'll give you a little prince position from now on. I'm very open-minded, I support you."
Shuangshuang: "???"
Something seems wrong.
Shuangshuang felt confused by the young lady's words, so he quickly reported, "After losing track of them on the first day, I followed the horses to the place Lan Jingtang went to on the second day. It was the residence of Grand Commandant Yuchi. On the third day, I went there early to lie in ambush and eavesdrop on their conversation."
"Grand Commandant Yuchi? Why would he go there? Grand Commandant Yuchi is someone Yi Chenxuan has supported all the way up. Did you hear what they were saying?"
Shuangshuang explained, "Lan Jingtang wants to see Yi Chenxuan through Grand Commandant Yuchi. Judging from his words, it seems that the First Prince's mother, Consort Xian, had done a great favor for the Lan family before her death. Now that the Lan family has declined, she entrusted the Lan family's orphan to repay Consort Xian's kindness before her death."
This news came like a bolt from the blue.
Lan Jingtang actually wanted to join Yi Chenxuan. Everyone knows that Yi Chenxuan is ambitious, and his relationship with Yi Chenqi and Yi Chenli is very bad.
