Chapter 169 Clues



The little girl smiled happily, and the noise outside the window gradually calmed down. The temperature in the dog days of summer made Shanghai hot and humid.

Lan Xi woke up very early. Without taking any medicine, she fell asleep in the second half of the night. She stayed in the same position for three hours and was too groggy to fall asleep.

She carefully got out of bed and left the bedroom, running into Wang Yue who had just come out of the study.

"You didn't sleep all night?" Lan Xi was a little surprised. She didn't expect Wang Yue's life to be so upside down now.

Wang Yue looked very energetic and in good spirits. She shook her head and pointed to the study.

Lan Xi understood immediately: "You are... not good for Sasha!"

Wang Yue already knew what was happening downstairs, but didn't she remind her daughter?

"There's no way to adjust her bedroom. No one will adjust it for her. Fortunately, she's quite perceptive and doesn't really care about these things. The Wang family's situation is very complicated right now, so I don't dare to act rashly."

Wang Yue rubbed his forehead and looked like he also had a headache.

As they walked downstairs, they ran into a girl in lightly dressed clothes. It was obvious that she had just returned from an all-nighter. Her face turned pale when she saw Wang Yue: "Auntie...Auntie!"

This sound...

Lan Xi looked at the girl, who was wearing a dark grey tube top, shorts and long boots. She looked like a playful girl, but looking at her face, she really couldn't recognize that she was the delicate girl who was standing in the corner last night.

Wang Yue passed by the girl as if she hadn't seen her. The girl's eyes fell on Lan Xi. As a young lady of the Wang family, she naturally knew who this person was and quickly lowered her voice to greet her, "Miss Lan!"

Lan Xi nodded, walked past her, and the two of them disappeared at the end of the stairs.

In the main hall, Wang Feng was reading a newspaper with his uneaten breakfast in front of him. He looked up when he heard footsteps. "Miss Lan! You're up so early!"

Lan Xi looked tired and world-weary, having not slept well. She gave Wang Feng a gloomy look and said, "Mr. Wang, you should pay attention to the back garden! There's been so much noise all night, and no one's taking care of it?"

Wang Feng's smile froze as he looked at his sister, who simply ignored him and walked towards the restaurant.

"I'm so sorry to have disturbed Miss Lan's rest. I think it's because the people downstairs are moving around too frequently!"

Lan Xi's face instantly turned cold, and she seemed to be on the verge of getting angry:

"Mr. Wang, please stop fooling me. We are all adults. I can still tell whether it's walking or something else!"

After saying that, he was about to leave. Wang Feng looked at the direction Lan Xi left and subconsciously wanted to keep her: "Miss Lan, have breakfast before you leave!"

"No more eating, let's go back and get some sleep!" Lan Xi's voice came from the corridor, and she sounded in a bad mood.

Wang Feng had originally wanted to keep Lan Xi to have breakfast and then go to the study to discuss things, but now that he was delayed by something like this, he was very angry. He walked to the dining room and saw Wang Yue eating with gusto: "You're still eating! You didn't even stay!"

Wang Yue ignored him and kept swiping her fingers across today's report.

"Butler! Where is the butler?" Wang Feng roared in anger in the restaurant, his hands gripping the chair and shaking.

"Sir! You're looking for me!" The butler ran in from outside, wiping his forehead with a handkerchief. His black suit was wrinkled due to the amplitude of his movements.

Wang Feng looked at the housekeeper irritably, feeling that he was increasingly useless. "What's going on in the back garden? Didn't I tell you? Miss Lan is here, so there can't be any problems. How did you do it? Huh?"

The sweat on the housekeeper's head dripped down his cheeks, and he didn't dare to wipe it off. He cursed in his heart that the Wang family was becoming more and more chaotic. How could he dare to interfere in those things in the back garden? Isn't this asking for his life?

"Speak up! What's wrong with you?" Wang Feng saw that the housekeeper only half lowered his head and didn't say anything. He became even angrier and slammed his hand on the table.

Wang Yue frowned, raised her eyelids and looked at the coffee in front of her, which was shaking slightly because of his tapping. She said in a deep voice:

"What's the point of getting angry here? Why don't you just install a surveillance camera and keep an eye on Sasha downstairs and find out soon? Why don't you ask the person in charge of the back garden how many things the housekeeper has to watch over every day? It's not enough for him to serve you, and now he's being lectured by you!"

"Shut up! What does this have to do with you?" Wang Feng turned around and yelled at his sister. Then he pressed his aching head and said to the housekeeper, "Find someone to install surveillance cameras for me! I want to see who's ruining my plans!"

After Wang Feng left, the housekeeper bowed to Wang Yue with gratitude and left. He wondered if the master would go crazy if he knew the truth.

Wang Yue picked up the coffee and drank it, with a smile on her face...

When Lan Xi arrived home, Bai Yun had just finished making breakfast. Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, she said, "If you didn't sleep well, come back and sleep. After dinner, go catch up on your sleep!"

Lan Xi walked to the dining table and drank the milk in one gulp. She returned to the bedroom. Cheng Chiyan had not woken up yet. He was lying on the bed with his legs spread out.

Lan Xi walked over and threw his legs aside. She lay down and just closed her eyes when an arm came over and wrapped around her waist.

"Get out of here!" Lan Xi said in a cold voice. She hadn't slept well and was full of anger.

However, Cheng Chiyan only felt that there was someone next to him, and subconsciously hugged him. He didn't hear these two words at all.

Her eyelids were too heavy, and after saying these two sentences, Lan Xi no longer had the energy to care about him and fell into a deep sleep.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Lan Xi was awakened by Cheng Chiyan's suffocating hug. The bulge in his lower back was pressing against her, making it difficult for her to ignore it.

Men always unconsciously want to touch other things while they are sleeping, just like now his hand has already reached into Lan Xi's pajamas.

Lan Xi reached out and pulled his hand away. A thin layer of sweat appeared on her body. The temperature in the room was just right, and there was even a slight breeze through the half-open window, but her body still felt sticky.

Cheng Chiyan behind him grumbled in dissatisfaction, pulled Lan Xi, who was away from him, and held her in his arms.
