"Mom... I'm sleepy. Besides, I'm not the only single person! Ranran is too, isn't she?"
Yan Qirui had no choice but to drag Yan Yinran into the mess.
Yan Yinran glanced back at him and said, "Fourth Brother, thank you!"
"Ranran is a girl, how can she be like you? Everyone loves Ranran, but you're the kind of girl that makes cars get flat tires! Running away won't help, it's your two younger sisters' birthdays and you're still single. Don't blame us for removing you from the Yan family's household registration!"
Li Shuwen looked at Yan Qirui with disdain, her face full of discrimination, discriminating against him for being a single dog.
Is it necessary? Is it really necessary?
Yan Qirui felt incredibly innocent, glaring at his four brothers, blaming them for getting married so early and ruining his life!
Yan Yixing was the one who got glared at the longest; he was the most outrageous! He brought back a girlfriend from a business trip—did he pick her up off the street? Are they that easy to find?
"Then give it a try!"
Li Shuwen left after saying a few words, heading towards Yan Youting and the two elders.
After Li Shuwen left, the others finally couldn't hold back their laughter and burst into laughter.
"Do you guys have to be this heartless... I'm speechless!"
Yan Qirui's resentful eyes looked like he was about to cry.
"Fourth Brother, we still have each other."
Yan Yinran looked at him with sympathy and laboriously stood on tiptoe to pat his shoulder.
"What companion do you have? You won't be expelled..."
Yan Qirui sighed.
This caused them to burst into laughter again, "Hahahaha!"
It was at this moment that Yan Xiluo quietly pulled Lan Jingyan back to her room, locked the door from the inside, and closed the window.
“My aunt was poisoned, and it was the long-term poisoning that caused her infertility. I didn’t tell her that I was afraid of causing panic.”
Yan Xiluo's expression was not good. This poison had been used for more than ten years. Although it was not fatal, it could cause infertility!
"So, someone deliberately prevented Aunt from getting pregnant? Why would that be? Is there a secret in the Su family?"
Lan Jingyan boldly speculated: Who would poison Zhong Nian like this?
"It's hard to say. If I had to pick, the most suspicious would be my aunt and uncle..."
That's why she didn't say it in public; she wanted to investigate it all secretly.
"This obviously can't be my aunt and uncle!"
Lan Jingyan knew Yan Chuxiao and Su Yi's character well; they had raised Su Ruien so well. How could they possibly do something so harmful?
Moreover, they have always been honest and straightforward, and never resort to two-faced tactics. If we must say it is them, we can only say that they have hidden themselves very well.
"Of course I know it wasn't them, otherwise I wouldn't have hidden it."
We absolutely must not let the Su family know before we get to the bottom of this! It would definitely affect their family relationship.
"So, the fact that my uncle and aunt don't have children is most advantageous for my aunt and uncle. Is this person trying to frame me and incite the two brothers to fight each other?"
Lan Jingyan had a feeling it wouldn't be Yan Chuxiao and Su Yi, but it was also unlikely to be Su Li himself. The two old people were even less likely…
"But that's not unreasonable. Who will reap the benefits without lifting a finger?"
Yan Xiluo's expression was solemn. Did the Su family have other distant relatives?
"I can't think of that right now either. We need to investigate the Su family more thoroughly!"
Lan Jingyan quickly went through the names of people who had grudges against the Su family in her mind, but it was unlikely that they were all minor matters that would cause such a big fuss.
"That's what I was planning too, but the poison in her body has been there for over a decade, so it's really troublesome to get rid of it. I might have to go to Hell Island and buy the medicine on the black market."
She said she needed three months of recuperation, which was just a delaying tactic to give her the opportunity to go to Hell Island in Country Y for the auction.
"Okay, I'll go with you. We need to start investigating this now, but we can't let the Su family find out."
Lan Jingyan was still searching for possibilities in her mind, but couldn't come up with any useful information.
"Ryan's cousin shouldn't know about this either. Don't get him involved, or things will get very complicated."
Hearing footsteps approaching, Yan Xiluo whispered something and then covered Lan Jingyan's mouth.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Sister, are you resting? We've prepared all the barbecue ingredients!"
Yan Yinran's sweet voice rang out from outside the door, and Yan Xiluo subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll just go to the restroom and come downstairs. You don't need to wait for me."
Yan Xiluo pretended to be in the bathroom and lowered her voice considerably.
If they were to go out with Lan Jingyan now, they'd probably be misunderstood, as if they'd abandoned the rest of them and come upstairs to get intimate...
Yan Qirui is likely to be slandered even more.
"Okay! I'll go down now!"
After Yan Yinran finished speaking, she left.
Only then did Yan Xiluo release her hand from Lan Jingyan's mouth.
"Phew... Baby, why are you covering my mouth? I can hear footsteps..."
When Yan Xiluo covered his mouth, she didn't even have time to see what he was covering. She had covered not only Lan Jingyan's mouth, but also his nose...
Lan Jingyan was pinned against the wall before she could even resist...
He was panting heavily now. He hadn't dared to push Yan Xiluo away just now, afraid that he would use too much force and knock her to the ground.
"I was in such a hurry that I forgot you could hear me."
Yan Xiluo looked at Lan Jingyan awkwardly and blinked.
"What do you mean you forgot I can hear you...?"
Lan Jingyan is speechless. He's not deaf... What a statement...
"It was subconscious... I was afraid Ranran would misunderstand that we were being intimate, so it was quite provocative."
Yan Xiluo said with amusement, thinking of Yan Qirui's tearful expression after being made to look like he was about to cry by Li Shuwen, and felt extremely sorry for him.
"I hadn't even thought of this until you mentioned it. I haven't had a taste of sweetness all day..."
After Lan Jingyan finished speaking, he held her head and kissed her deeply.
After a long while, they reluctantly parted ways. Lan Jingyan licked her lips, looking as if she was savoring the memory.
"Hurry up and wipe your lips, they're all lipstick...it's even on your face."
Yan Xiluo said shyly, "How intense was it just now...?"
"You have it on your face too."
After Lan Jingyan finished speaking, the two couldn't help but kiss again, and walked in the same direction to the bathroom, only letting go after they went inside.
She took a tissue, dampened it, and wiped the lipstick off her face before reluctantly leaving the room hand in hand. Yan Xiluo seemed to remember something else and quickly went back into the room.
She forgot to touch up her lipstick, and if this continued, they would definitely start overthinking! She quickly took out the lipstick she had worn that day and applied it, then left satisfied, the two of them holding hands as they went downstairs.
Everyone was sitting in the backyard, where tables and chairs of all sizes had been set up and the charcoal fire had been lit.
Various ingredients and food were laid out on the table, a very generous spread. Even the two elderly people sat happily in the backyard.
