Chapter 328 Emergency
An Yan returned to the city. She went home to clean up first. It happened to be lunch time. Xiao Hua was cooking. She was very happy to see her back and said, "Hey, An Yan, you're back. It's a good opportunity to go to Rong Qian's place for dinner together."
"Since we're going to her house for dinner, what are you busy with?"
"Just fry two dishes and take them over. I can't eat for free. I've already eaten several meals at her house." Xiaohua told her honestly.
An Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go upstairs to change my clothes and then I'll come over."
"Then I'll wait for you. It'll be ready soon." Xiaohua quickly turned off the gas, took out the dishes, and then put them back into the food box.
Rong Qian also asked the servants to prepare a few dishes and then sent her away.
The doorbell rang, she went to open the door, and found Xiaohua and An Yan together. She was surprised and said, "Oh, when did An Yan come back? Where is my brother?"
"Your brother is working." An Yan said.
"Come in quickly, I'm ready too." Rong Qian motioned them to come in together. Seeing Xiaohua bringing more food, she said, "Really? Every time I tell Xiaohua not to bring food, she never listens. It's like she owes me a ton of favors just by eating a few meals from me."
Xiao Hua felt embarrassed when she heard this and said, "Hey, I can't come to eat empty-handed."
"What's the big deal? I want to go to your house for dinner too, and I have nothing in my hands. If you bring food every day, I won't dare to eat there." Rong Qian said as she gestured for them to sit down.
When Xiaohua heard her say that, she quickly said, "Okay, I won't bring it anymore."
"That's right, we are all acquaintances." Rong Qian nodded.
An Yan picked up the chopsticks and said, "That's great! Can you cook now?"
"I didn't cook it, I asked Auntie to do it." Rong Qian replied, then sighed and said, "I actually want to learn how to cook, but I'm not good at it. I don't have the talent for it."
"If you don't have time, there's no need to learn. It's not difficult to find a chef." An Yan said.
"That's what I said, but Bai Shu's mother wouldn't agree. She insisted that I learn it."
"Why, did you meet again recently?" An Yan asked.
"Well, she asked me to go to her house, and then said that she probably accepted me as her wife. Some things can be compromised, but some things must be done, such as cooking." Rong Qian felt really troubled, but there was nothing she could do. Fortunately, Bai Shu was very nice to her and kept asking her not to force herself.
Xiaohua said, "It seems that mother-in-law is really not easy to serve."
"Not every mother-in-law is like this. It depends on the person. Some mothers-in-law are good. My mother is definitely the best mother-in-law in the world. Whoever becomes her daughter-in-law will be happy. She treats you like her own daughter. Maybe she treats you better than she treats me." Rong Qian said while looking at An Yan. She was talking to her.
An Yan didn't listen. She had never thought of this at all.
Xiaohua smiled, then buried her head in her food and asked An Yan, "Where are you going later?"
"I have to go see a friend and leave after dinner."
"Who are you looking at?" Rong Qian couldn't help but ask.
"Go see Wen Jiaer and give him some medicine." An Yan did not hide it from them.
"Why don't you let my brother take it over? Why do you have to go there yourself?"
"Your brother has so much to do. Delivering medicine is a small matter, and it's quite convenient."
It was precisely because it was a trivial matter that she felt there was no need to go in person. This was what Rong Qian was worried about. She was afraid that An Yan and Wen Jiaer would develop feelings for each other, so she quickly said, "How about this, I'll help you send it over."
"No need." An Yan refused her politely.
After hearing her answer, Rong Qian felt it was not appropriate to force her, so she had to agree. She thought that she should go and ask Li Rongsen how they were getting along recently and why there was no movement at all.
An Yan asked: "Are you planning to get married?"
"My grandfather said that he won't get married until Bai Shu's mother's illness is cured."
"Since you are sick, let An Yan treat you. An Yan is an expert in treating illnesses." Xiaohua quickly replied.
Rong Qian smiled and said, "The illness I'm talking about is not a physical illness."
An Yan also lowered her eyes and smiled, saying, "Your grandfather loves you and is afraid that you will suffer if you marry him."
"I've finally realized now that my family is the best. I was too willful before and neglected a lot of things. Now I think I owe them." Rong Qian felt a little guilty.
"It's the same if you treat them well now." An Yan said as she picked up some food for her.
Rong Qian nodded heavily.
After the three of them finished their meal, they went about their own business.
An Yan naturally went to Wen Jiaer.
Wen Jiaer was tidying up the house. He moved things around and made some new adjustments to the furniture. When he saw An Yan come in, he asked her, "Have you eaten yet?"
"I came here after I finished eating."
"My sister cooked porridge for me today. I thought it was delicious, so I saved a bowl for you." Wen Jiaer said to her with a smile, and then said, "Since you have eaten it, forget it. Don't fill your stomach."
"Let me take a look at your illness." An Yan motioned him to come over and sit down.
Wen Jiaer first went to wash his hands, then sat down in front of An Yan and stretched out his wrist.
An Yan took his pulse, then checked his throat and said, "Not bad, very good. It seems that you have been taking your medicine on time."
“I just finished eating today.”
"I was just calculating the time." An Yan nodded, took out some medicine from her pocket and gave it to him, saying, "Here, take this medicine, and you should be able to recover."
Wen Jiaer obediently took it and swallowed it with water. Instantly, he felt as if his Ren and Du meridians were opened up. He said, "What kind of medicine is this? I feel completely different. I feel refreshed, and my whole body is warm."
An Yan took his pulse on her wrist again, but was still disappointed. The problem was not cured, even though he felt good at the moment.
Wen Jiaer seemed to have noticed the gloom in An Yan's eyes. He asked, "What's wrong? Is there something on your mind?"
"No." An Yan took her hand away and said, "Let's go, let's go shopping."
"Okay." Wen Jiaer nodded, stood up immediately, went over to get an umbrella, and said, "Looking at the weather, it looks like it's going to rain, so bring an umbrella just in case."
"Okay." An Yan nodded.
The two men first went to the furniture market, picked out a few pieces of Ming-style furniture, and an antique desk, and asked a few workers to deliver them to their home. They also greeted Bai Shichen and asked him to receive them first.
Then he went to the department store and picked out a lot of exquisite decorative items. He didn't come out until dinner time.
It started to drizzle, and the umbrella that Wen Jiaer brought came in handy. He opened it, held it over An Yan's head, and said, "Fortunately, I have an umbrella."
An Yan was holding a paper bag full of things in her hands. She said, "Hold on to yourself. I'm fine here. Put your collar up so your throat doesn't get cold."
Wen Jiaer smiled and did as he was told, but the next moment he fell straight down and the umbrella in his hand fell off. Blood was gushing out of his neck and staining An Yan's face.
An Yan was frightened. She quickly dropped the things and went forward to support Wen Jiaer. She saw a bloody hole on his neck and quickly used her luck to suck out the thing. It was a toy bullet, but it had great lethality.
At the corner, a man wearing a hat and covering his face put away his toy air gun. He was very proud that Wen Jiaer was definitely dead, and then he left quietly.
Even if An Yan saw him, she couldn't chase him. The most important thing right now was to save Wen Jiaer.
