Chapter 54: Fanxi Returns
Jun Lan returned to her room and lay on the bed, not daring to close her eyes. After listening to her aunt's story, she felt very scared. She always felt that as soon as she closed her eyes, she would see Lin Sisi dying with her eyes open in the ancestral hall.
But how could an ordinary person resist the temptation of sleep? After a while, Jun Lan slowly fell asleep.
In the dream, a figure that had not appeared for a long time appeared again.
Jun Lan: "Grandma, you are honored to visit us. What instructions do you have?"
Dai Qing: "It's rare that you still remember me, your great-grandmother. Do you still remember the contract between us?"
Jun Lan: "I dare not forget, I dare not forget, but I really don't know how to use the demon-subduing pestle to save you."
Dai Qing: "It's very simple. You just need to insert the demon-subduing pestle into the painting, and I will be free."
Jun Lan: "Will this be discovered?"
Dai Qing: "Of course not, good child, grandma will not lie to you."
Jun Lan: "Grandma, do you have anything else to do? If not, I'd like to leave first."
Dai Qing: "Have you been back to your hometown?"
Junlan: "Yes! What's the matter?"
Dai Qing: "How is the old witch now?"
Jun Lan: "I heard from others that she is the most famous disciple of the shaman in the area."
Dai Qing shook her head with deep regret: "This damn old woman is so stubborn. She can be a guardian deity, but she chooses to be a horse deity instead."
Junlan: “Is there any difference between the two?”
Dai Qing: "You don't have this opportunity, so it's better for you not to know."
Jun Lan: "Grandma, can I ask you something?"
Dai Qing: "Ask."
Jun Lan: "What is your connection with my great aunt Lin Sisi?"
Dai Qing: "No comment."
Jun Lan: "Then what is your relationship with my boss Nangong? Why is there your painting hanging in his room?"
As soon as Dai Qing heard the word Nangong, a barely perceptible murderous intent flashed across her eyes.
"You're quite the troubled girl, but you've asked too many questions today. I'll consider whether to answer you after you've finished your business."
"Ring, ring, ring," the phone rang. Jun Lan opened her eyes, wiped her face vigorously, and said to herself, "If this continues, I really won't know what's true and what's false."
She rushed back to the company and had no intention of working in room 610.
It was lunchtime, and Mi-joo and Li-ok kept calling and texting her to urge her to eat, but she didn't reply. Finally, she got really annoyed and replied, "I have no appetite, you guys eat by yourselves."
It was a little after one o'clock when Junlan finally felt hungry. To make matters worse, her stomach started to ache. She regretted not having eaten earlier.
If a prince charming came to bring her food at this moment and asked her to marry him, she would agree without hesitation.
There was a knock on the door.
"Ah? I was just thinking about it. It's not like someone really came to bring me food, right?" Jun Lan thought.
Jun Lan reluctantly got up and opened the door, and found that someone really came to bring her food. That person was none other than Yang Ning.
Yang Ning: "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"
Jun Lan: "It's nothing. I had a lot of dreams last night and didn't sleep well. Ouch..." She covered her stomach with her hands.
"Your stomach is upset too?"
"Maybe I was hungry just now, and my stomach is a little uncomfortable."
"Even a body made of iron needs to eat, let alone a glutton like you. If you don't eat for a while, I really can't imagine what will happen."
While Yang Ning was preaching to Jun Lan, Jun Lan was already putting food into her mouth in big mouthfuls.
Jun Lan: "It's inevitable that people will be confused for a while. I thought that no matter what happened, I still have to eat, otherwise I will really starve to death."
Yang Ning: "As long as you figure it out."
Jun Lan: "How do you know I haven't eaten yet?"
Yang Ning: "You should thank your good friends Meizhu and Li Yu for this. They saw that you didn't go downstairs to eat, and they didn't dare to come up to the sixth floor themselves, so they asked me, the flower protector, to bring it up."
Jun Lan looked at the lunch box in front of her and almost shed tears.
Yang Ning: "Do you mind if I ask you a question?"
Jun Lan: “Ask!”
Yang Ning: "Did you dream about your ex last night? That's why you couldn't sleep well and you've been feeling listless all day."
Jun Lan: "It's not because of him. But I'm really curious why you suddenly asked this?"
Yang Ning: "Do you remember how you got home from Dali's celebration?"
Jun Lan: "Oh, yeah, I was really drunk at that time and had a little blackout. So you were the one who took me home?"
Yang Ning: "Yeah, who else do you think it would be?"
Jun Lan covered her face. "I've seen people make fools of themselves after drinking. I must have done a lot of rude things back then, right? Did I do anything inappropriate to you?"
Yang Ning: "You haven't done anything improper, but you've said a lot of nonsense."
Jun Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief and put down her hands.
"So what did I say?"
"You laugh sometimes, cry sometimes, and keep calling him Fanxi. You still love him very much, right?"
"You've already said it's nonsense, how can I take it seriously?"
"Instead, I think you're just speaking the truth after drinking."
"No... I just haven't heard from him lately, and I'm a little worried about him."
"Whether it's just the simple concern between friends or lingering feelings, you know it best in your heart. Okay, I'll be leaving first, you take your time to eat. And..." Yang Ning took out a bottle of stomach medicine from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"Li Yu said you have a poor appetite, so I bought a bottle of stomach medicine. It comes in handy now. Remember to take one after dinner." After saying that, he left Room 610.
Jun Lan looked at the stomach medicine on the table and suddenly felt that everything she ate had no taste.
Soon it will be the day for Junlan to move into her new home.
Junlan only invited her former good classmates and a group of like-minded buddies from the hotel to her new home for a meal to celebrate the housewarming ceremony.
After seeing off her friends, Jun Lan was about to use her key to open the door of her new home when the phone rang.
It shows an unknown caller.
"Hello!"
"Hello, it's me."
When Jun Lan heard this voice, her heart almost stopped beating.
The voice belonged to Fan Xi, who had not been heard from for a long time but whom she had always missed.
She was so excited that even her voice was trembling.
"Where are you now"
"Right behind you."
Jun Lan quickly turned around and found that Fan Xi was really standing behind her. She was so scared that she dropped the key in her hand.
Vansh hung up the phone, picked up the key from the floor and opened the door.
"Why don't you invite me in? Or are you so excited to see me that you don't even know how to get home?"
Jun Lan forced herself to calm down, and after calming down, she said, "When did you come back and how did you find yourself here?"
Fan Xi: "Let's talk inside."
Fan Xi pulled her into the bridal chamber and slammed the door shut.
