"Okay, I'm going to wash my hands first."
Lan Jingyan put the medicine away and set it aside. The medicine was brownish-red, and Lan Jingyan's beautiful, fair hands were also stained with the color.
"This medicine tastes a bit too strong..."
Yan Xiluo didn't know how to describe the taste of the medicinal wine, which, combined with the smell of the medicated plaster, was simply indescribable.
"Yes, a little."
Lan Jingyan washed her hands and dried them with a towel.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Lan Jingyan's phone rang.
"Hello."
"Boss, the person who bribed Xiao Jiang was Sun Shanshan."
The person on the other end of the phone was indeed A-Yu. He quickly found out the account information that had transferred money to Xiao-Jiang, and after questioning the person, he discovered that it was Sun Shan-Shan who had instructed him to do it.
"Her? It seems we didn't teach her a lesson last time, she hasn't learned her lesson. Give her a lesson, but don't go too far, just leave her alive. After all, her mother and my mother are best friends, we should give her that much face."
Lan Jingyan's voice was icy cold at this moment. If it weren't for this relationship, he wouldn't mind killing her with his own hands!
"Okay, boss! What should we do with Xiao Jiang and that guy?"
Ayu had already guessed what Lan Jingyan would do, but she still asked to confirm, mainly because she was afraid that the lesson would be too lenient and not satisfying.
“Handle them as they should be; they are not innocent.”
Lan Jingyan responded to the question without any emotion, and then hung up the phone.
"What's wrong? Your face turned dark after you answered the phone?"
Yan Xiluo looked over when she heard footsteps and saw Lan Jingyan walking back from the balcony, his handsome face now filled with gloom.
If it weren't for his back pain, perhaps she would have smoothed his brow and then hugged him.
"The person who instructed Xiao Jiang to tamper with the wire work was Sun Shanshan. I have already ordered people to deal with them."
Lan Jingyan sat down in front of her so that Yan Xiluo could see him without much difficulty.
"Sun Shanshan? It's her again? Oh, it's just another one of your unfortunate romantic entanglements..."
Yan Xiluo put down her phone and sighed... Sun Shanshan had already been clearly rejected by Lan Jingyan, so why was she still so shameless?
It's really low to resort to such tactics when everyone knows he has a fiancée.
"???"
Lan Jingyan was stunned for a few seconds. Bad romantic prospects?
“I have no romantic relationship with her. I’ve never spoken to her before, and I don’t even know her.”
His attitude was serious and sincere, showing no sign of pretense; he had never provoked her!
"Of course I know that, but I think she doesn't seem very smart. She thinks she can get you by attacking me. If it weren't for me, you probably wouldn't even be interested in her, right? Why doesn't she use her brain..."
Yan Xiluo analyzed the situation methodically. How could someone be so stupid? Their thought process is truly bizarre!
"Without you, I might not have anyone I like."
Lan Jingyan blurted it out, but he knew it was only a possibility, nothing was certain.
"The sweet words were quite lovely, but they were too confident."
Yan Xiluo's lips curled up slightly as she looked into Lan Jingyan's deep, tender eyes, and the gloom from before dissipated considerably.
"Hmm... I already said it was 'maybe'."
Lan Jingyan affectionately stroked her head; he had already guessed that Yan Xiluo would answer him this way.
"I'll take a nap first; the smell of this medicinal wine is making me dizzy."
Yan Xiluo frowned and rubbed her temples.
"good."

The other end
Sun Shanshan was shopping with her best friend on the streets of the United States, where they bought many luxury goods and chatted and laughed.
"I'm so happy! I bought so many great things, I love them all!"
Sun Shanshan walked around carrying shopping bags, spinning in circles. The feeling of spending money like water was just too good!
She had finally managed to sneak out of her home and run away to the United States. Sun Zhibin and Fu Yao had no idea that she had run away.
"Didn't your dad ground you for a month? Aren't you afraid of being punished by your dad when you go back home by running away like this?"
Zheng Shuyi felt a chill for her, wondering how she managed to sneak out of the Sun family villa and come straight to the US to find her. She was quite startled.
"My dad's soft-hearted, he'll be fine in a few days! I'll stay here with you for a while, I don't want to go back!"
Sun Shanshan said willfully that only by staying with Zheng Shuyi would there be no hotel booking record, and even if Sun Zhibin came, he wouldn't be able to find her.
"Honey, you're using your dad's supplementary card. Every transaction you make here will be sent to his phone via text message... Aren't you afraid he'll come to the US and drag you back?"
Zheng Shuyi was speechless. Didn't she know that if she used Sun Zhibin's supplementary card, Sun Zhibin would receive a notification?
Her location can be tracked directly; it can be found as soon as she makes a purchase.
"Then I'll just wander around everywhere. I don't believe he's implanted a tracking device inside me!"
Sun Shanshan felt that the location tracking was only a general area and not precise. She figured she would run away after spending money, and she didn't believe Sun Zhibin could find her. Besides, this was the US, not China.
"Shanshan, you're amazing! I wouldn't dare go against my dad like that! Aren't you afraid he'll arrest you, put you in jail, and suspend your supplementary credit card?"
Zheng Shuyi actually wanted to persuade Sun Shanshan to go home, fearing that she would make the same mistake again and that the punishment would be even more severe.
"Don't worry, my dad is so soft and gentle... he wouldn't want to hurt me! Don't worry! I'm going to the bathroom first, you sit here and wait for me?"
The two arrived at a public rest area. Sun Shanshan put the shopping bags on the table and then patted Zheng Shuyi on the shoulder.
"Alright, go ahead then."
Zheng Shuyi sighed, shaking her head as she watched Sun Shanshan's departing figure. She felt she might have made a mistake in making this friend; their values were quite different…
But they've been friends since they were little... it's just that they gradually discovered that there were big differences in their values.
Sun Shanshan was walking down a deserted street when she was suddenly surrounded by a group of people.
"Who...who are you?"
Sun Shanshan turned pale with fright, staring in terror at the group of people who were carrying ropes, sacks, and sticks...
She doesn't seem to have offended anyone, does she?
"Don't you know what you've done?"
"You've mistaken me for someone else! I didn't do anything; I just arrived in the US today!"
Sun Shanshan was forced into a corner by them, with nowhere to escape. Fearfully, she crouched down and covered her head.
"We never wrongly target anyone, don't worry! It'll be over soon!"
"You...do you know who I am? I'm Sun Shanshan, the eldest daughter of the Sun family, who's on the rich list in Country Z! If you dare hit me, my dad will definitely not let you get away with it!"
Sun Shanshan was trembling with fear, but she still stubbornly kept making harsh remarks.
"Sun Shanshan? Then there's no doubt about it, we're going to beat you up! Brothers, let's go!"
Before Sun Shanshan could even utter a sound of protest, blows rained down on her...
A scream came from Sun Shanshan echoing through the empty street...
