The Lan family’s old house!
Just as lunch was served, the housekeeper came in: "Sir, the young lady is back!"
Lan Ting'an was about to take a seat when he heard this, anger surged in his heart again. He said with disgust on his face:
"Let her kneel in the ancestral hall. She can stand up again when she realizes her mistakes!"
"Why are you so angry in the middle of the day? Uncle Liu, did you check your blood pressure today? It's not high, is it?"
Lan Xi ignored his words, walked in, threw the clothes she had taken off to the servant beside her, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Lan Ting'an looked at his daughter, who was getting more and more angry as she grew older. He had just sat down when she stood up angrily: "Get out of here! You won't get any of this meal today!"
"Butler! Throw her to the ancestral hall!" He looked at the butler and pointed at Lan Xi and shouted angrily.
The housekeeper looked at the gentleman and the lady in embarrassment, not knowing what to do!
"I called her back. If you have any questions, and you're not used to living in this house, go live with your concubine!"
Li Yulan washed her hands, wiped them with hand oil and walked out of the kitchen. She glanced at Lan Xi coldly and spoke to Lan Tingan who was sitting in the main seat.
Lan Ting'an was filled with anger. He glanced at Lan Xi angrily, then sat down again and picked up his chopsticks: "You asked her to come back without even telling me!"
Lan Xi scoffed and directed Zhu Lingling to serve herself a bowl of soup, drinking it slowly: "I didn't expect you to be home, Dad!"
Lan Tingan slammed his chopsticks onto the table.
"Why should a child butt in when adults are talking? What does it have to do with you whether I'm home or not? You're being completely unreasonable right now!"
Li Yulan glanced at Lan Xi, her eyes flashing with warning, then turned back to Lan Ting'an and said:
"You're already high, yet you still have the nerve to lose your temper like that? If you want to give up your position, just say so. Stop acting like a powder keg all day long!"
Lan Ting'an held his knees and gasped uncontrollably. The housekeeper beside him quickly poured him a glass of warm water.
Lan Xi was the only one who enjoyed the meal, not even looking up during the whole meal.
Lan Ting'an lost his appetite. Seeing Lan Xi like this, he felt chest tightness and shortness of breath:
"If you act like this, others will think the Lan family has never given you a full meal!"
Lan Xi extended her hand gracefully, and the maid hurried forward to hand her a handkerchief.
After wiping her mouth, she stood up and walked slowly towards Lan Ting'an:
"A man who's always away from home, dedicated to giving every woman a child, and a woman who's so controlling she wants to reinvent herself..."
Reaching out to hold onto the chair her mother was sitting on, she saw the housekeeper's face turn pale with fear at her words. She raised the corners of her lips maliciously: "In a house like this, it must be difficult to breathe!"
"You!" Along with Lan Ting'an's roar, a crisp slap sounded, and Lan Xi's face turned to the side.
Zhu Lingling took a step forward worriedly, wanting to see Lan Xi's face, but was stopped by Lan Xi's gaze.
Lan Xi licked the corner of her lips with the tip of her tongue, and her smile widened. She looked at her father, who seemed a little bewildered, and said, "I didn't expect you to still have this much strength. No wonder you have the energy to sleep with a woman!"
Lan Ting'an's guilt, which had just emerged, disappeared because of Lan Xi's words. He raised his hand again, watching the slap about to fall.
Lan Xi didn't react at all. This kind of thing was of great benefit to her with no harm at all!
After all, she is about to join the company!
"Grandpa...hasn't he asked to see you recently?" Li Yulan's sudden words successfully stopped Lan Tingan's hand.
He looked at the slap mark on Lan Xi's face and understood what Li Yulan meant.
Lan Xi looked at Lan Ting'an provocatively and replied calmly, "Who knows? Maybe the phone call will come soon!"
"Why don't you go get some eggs to help the young lady reduce her swelling? What are you standing there for?" Li Yulan looked up at the maid standing at the kitchen door and yelled!
Then she wiped her mouth and stood up from the chair. It’s not that she didn’t hear the sarcasm in Lan Xi’s words, but she didn’t care.
Letting Lan Xi join the Lan family is much more important than all this. Let her hate it!
"Miss, please sit down. Your face needs to reduce the swelling!" The maid came out with an egg and said to Lan Xi.
"I... let me do it!" Zhu Lingling walked over and took the eggs before Lan Xi changed her expression, and pulled out a chair for her.
Lan Xi didn't sit down. She took the egg from Zhu Lingling and applied it on her face.
"Go to the study!" Li Yulan glanced at Lan Xi, said lightly, and went upstairs.
Lan Xi glanced at her good father who was standing stupidly beside her: "Dad, you really look like a good husband now!"
After saying that, he ignored Lan Ting'an's reaction and followed Lan's mother upstairs!
In the study, Li Yulan watched Lan Xi walk in and said, "Close the door!"
Then he opened the drawer, pulled out a document, and threw it in front of Lan Xi: "Sign this!"
Lan Xi glanced at her mother, reached out and picked up the document and opened it. It was a share transfer contract.
She transferred half of her shares to Lan Xi, and the document took effect after her 25th birthday.
Lan Xi took out a pen from the pen holder and threw it back: "You are so kind! What do you want?"
Li Yulan looked at the document that just stopped in front of her, picked it up, walked to the safe, opened it and put it in:
"You're too impatient this time! There's absolutely no need to tell anyone about your dad's health issues. Your dad's mouth still hurts when he's anxious!"
She stood up and spoke in a calm tone, without any condemnation or disappointment, as if she was stating a trivial matter, without any emotional ups and downs!
"Oh! How much can his teeth hurt? Don't worry! I have my own plan!" Lan Xi pushed the chair with her foot, and it slid out. Then she pushed it again, and the chair slid back.
