"You smoked?"
Yan Xi noticed a faint smell of tobacco on Lan Jingyan, her brows furrowed, and she looked at him with a serious expression.
"Hmm, it's my first time, I'm a little annoyed."
The company abroad encountered some problems, which would take three to five days to resolve if he went there. His only worry was that Yan Xiluo might encounter something else, and he wouldn't be able to appear immediately since he wasn't by her side.
"Because of what I just said?"
Did I speak too harshly? Or has Lan Jingyan become more sensitive? What she said didn't seem to have much of a problem, did it?
After all, he's been acting really strange lately.
"No, it's just... I don't know how to say it, but anyway, I haven't changed, you can believe me."
Lan Jingyan shook his head. He didn't want to tell her about things he hadn't decided yet, in case anything changed.
"Would you like me to take you to see Orange?"
Yan Xiluo felt that Lan Jingyan still had some problems, so she decided to take him to Chengzi's place in person.
"What are you looking at?"
Orange? This was the first time he had heard this name. He was a little confused. Who was this person?
"She is a psychologist."
Yan Xiluo explained, trying to see through him.
"Huh? Baby, are you saying I have a mental illness?"
He was also startled; it seemed he had no choice but to explain things to her.
Do we really need to take him to see a psychologist? Has he really been behaving that strangely these past few days? Like someone with a mental illness?
"Isn't that right? You've been clinging to me these past few days, which is very unusual. Besides, you lied to me. I even asked Achen, and you haven't been handling any company affairs for days."
Yan Xiluo asked in return, and then told him about what he had asked Lan Jingchen earlier that day.
“Baby, you’ve misunderstood me, haven’t you? I am indeed working, but I haven’t been handling the affairs of the Lan Group. I’m leaving them to Achen for the time being. I have a company I own overseas, and I’ve been dealing with its affairs recently.”
Well, this has become a huge misunderstanding.
However, he hadn't mentioned this company to Yan Xiluo yet, so it was perfectly normal that she didn't know it existed.
"As for why I'm clinging to you, firstly, I've cherished you even more since I came back from that trip, and I want to treat you better and take care of you, which is perfectly normal. Secondly, I'm going abroad in a few days, so I want to make up for all the days I'm away from you... So you think I'm sick? That I have a mental illness?"
Because of some problems with this company, the Lan Group has been temporarily handed over to Lan Jingchen to handle alone, as he is simply too busy to take care of it.
"Really? But why didn't you tell me you were going abroad?"
Yan Xiluo still couldn't quite believe it. Was this just an excuse he made up? Just to prove that he didn't have a mental illness?
But if what he said is true, then how presumptuous were the things she said before?
"Because it's not completely settled yet, I didn't tell you. But I'm afraid that I might have to leave suddenly one day and won't have time to make it up to you. So I've been trying to spend more time with you these past few days."
Plans can never keep up with changes.
"You scared me to death! I thought you were really sick..."
That's true. He's Lan Jingyan, how could he get a mental illness so easily? He's not afraid of going through fire and water, how could such a small thing possibly upset him?
It seems I was being too sensitive.
"How could this be? I'm going to protect you for the rest of my life. How could I possibly get a mental illness so easily?"
Lan Jingyan smiled. Yan Xiluo's nervousness was really cute, but it also made him feel a little sorry for her. He should have explained things clearly, otherwise this misunderstanding wouldn't have happened.
"Then you can just tell me directly if anything happens in the future. You made me guess and worry for so long."
Yan Xiluo angrily patted his chest.
"Okay! I understand."
Lan Jingyan placed her on the sofa, then got up and went to the cabinet next to her to find a first-aid kit.
"Let me clean your wound first, and then I'll apply the medicine. It might hurt a little, so please bear with it. I'll try to be gentle."
Seeing that Yan Xiluo's leg was scraped and bleeding, with some sand on it, he felt a little guilty. He had been too obedient and had gone out to calm down.
He shouldn't have gone out... causing Yan Xiluo to run away.
"This little injury is nothing, it's nothing serious."
She's suffered much worse injuries before... This little bit of pain is nothing to her, and poses no real threat.
At the time, she only felt a little heartache, but otherwise she was fine.
"I'm just worried you'll get infected!"
Lan Jingyan bent down to treat her wound, his movements very gentle and slow.
"It's okay, I have medicine, I'll take it later."
Yan Xiluo comforted him, though it wasn't really comforting. The medicine did help the wound heal quickly.
"Understood, little miracle doctor!"
Lan Jingyan was certainly aware of her abilities, but in his eyes, she was just his fiancée; she didn't need to be so powerful.
"Thank you, Nurse Lan."
Yan Xiluo looked at the bandaged wound. Lan Jingyan had been so professional when he bandaged it. The bandage looked quite nice. She was very satisfied.
"Baby, what did you call me?"
Lan Jingyan frowned slightly, feeling like he was being teased by Yan Xiluo.
I found it somewhat funny.
"Hmm, Nurse Lan... she was treating my wound just now, she was quite professional!"
Is she praising his professionalism? His technique is truly professional.
"I've only learned some basic bandaging techniques, but I'm no match for a professional like you."
Lan Jingyan responded softly. In fact, he had often bandaged his own wounds in the past, but he just didn't want Yan Xiluo to know.
"Oh, Mr. Lan, why are you being so modest?"
Yan Xiluo continued to tease.
"I'm nothing compared to you. How can I be as amazing as my baby?"
Of course! Yan Xiluo has too many identities, and he feels inferior to her, feeling that he is not good enough for her.
He was really afraid that one day Yan Xiluo would suddenly reveal some other powerful or impressive identity, which would surprise him again.
"Keep praising me, keep praising me to the skies... Hahahaha!"
I don't know why, but she was quite happy and enjoyed it when Lan Jingyan praised her, but she became a little shy when her family praised her. Perhaps this is the difference between family and lovers.
Different ways of getting along lead to different feelings.
"Then I might as well spoil you rotten. Wouldn't that be better... Baby, you're like a star in the sky, so dazzling."
Lan Jingyan suddenly looked at Yan Xiluo with great seriousness, his eyes filled with her...
He felt very happy and content being with Yan Xiluo.
However, they are destined for greatness; too many things await their resolution...
Yan Xiluo paused slightly. Why did he suddenly confess to her?
