Chapter 163 Smoothing Things Over



Luo Yan watched helplessly as Tang Guizhi, who had been telling Ni Guanying it was okay a second ago, suddenly broke down in tears, completely shattering their relationship.

Ni Guanying was at a loss, not knowing how to coax Tang Guizhi.

Ni Guanying took the lunchbox from Tang Guizhi and handed it to Luo Yan. Then, he pulled Tang Guizhi to the small garden outside to whisper to each other.

Luo Yan placed the lunchboxes on the table and opened them one by one. There was millet porridge, two servings of stir-fried dishes, two servings of pickled vegetables, as well as eggs and steamed buns, which was quite a feast.

Xiang Yu pushed open the door and found that Tang Guizhi was not there. There was still untouched breakfast on the table. He put down the bowl he was holding and asked Luo Yan.

Where is your Aunt Tang?

Luo Yan sniffled, mimicking Tang Guizhi's crying, and pointed her little finger out the window.

Xiang Yu walked to the window and saw Ni Guanying talking to Tang Guizhi under the soapberry tree in the small garden. Tang Guizhi looked like she was crying, and Ni Guanying was wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

Thinking of Tang Guizhi's accusations against her early in the morning, and now that she was crying in front of outsiders, it was hard not to suspect that Tang Guizhi was talking badly about her to Ni Guanying.

Xiang Yu's face darkened, but as she turned around, she saw that Luo Yan had somehow appeared behind her, her hands behind her back the moment she turned around.

Xiang Yu caught a glimpse of a cold glint in his eyes. He grabbed Luo Yan and turned her around, revealing a dagger in her hand behind her back.

Xiang Yu's eyes flashed with malice as he demanded of Luo Yan, "Who gave you the knife?"

Luo Yan ran forward a few steps, turned around to face Xiang Yu, and shouted angrily.

"Auntie is crying, so I'll beat the bad boy!"

"Did Tang Guizhi order you to kill me?" Xiang Yu's eyes instantly turned red.

Luo Yan stepped back again, but Xiang Yu stepped forward and grabbed her again.

Give me the knife.

Xiang Yu reached out to Luo Yan.

Luo Yan seemed frightened and obediently placed the dagger in Xiang Yu's hand.

Xiang Yu abandoned Luo Yan, tucked in his dagger, and went out the door.

Luo Yan peeked out secretly, while Xiang Yu walked downstairs.

Luo Yan remembered that the stairs Xiang Yu took downstairs faced the dormitory-style dormitory, so Xiang Yu went to find Dr. Li.

At that moment, the door across the hall opened, and Zhang Jue looked at Luo Yan with a complicated expression.

Luo Yan stood inside the door gesturing to Zhang Jue...

Make a gun shape with your hands, mouth the words "biubiu", then make a circle with your index fingers and thumbs and hold it in front of your eyes, then point your fingers downwards downstairs.

Zhang Jue had never seen such a smart little baby before, and nodded seriously to indicate that he understood.

"It's good that you understand," Luo Yan patted her chest with her right hand.

Zhang Jue couldn't help but laugh. He made a counting motion with his hands and mouthed to Luo Yan, "Don't worry, there's a reward."

That's good, she was relieved, Luo Yan smiled.

Zhang Jue silently instructed Luo Yan, 'Be sure to be careful.'

Luo Yan made a salute, her playful appearance so cute it was heartbreaking.

After closing the door, Luo Yan sat down at the table, peeled an egg and ate it, then ate a steamed bun.

When Xiang Yu returned, he saw Luo Yan eating a steamed bun. He made a cup of milk powder for himself and Luo Yan, and then picked up an egg to eat.

After Xiang Yu and Luo Yan finished drinking their milk, they waited a while before Tang Guizhi returned with a smile on her face.

Tang Guizhi didn't mind that the porridge was cold. She drank the porridge and ate the vegetables. After finishing, she washed the lunchbox and put it back in the mesh bag.

Xiang Yu packed the application materials for building the factory into his briefcase, picked up the briefcase, and said to Tang Guizhi.

"Yanyan is coming with me today, you go to the bookstore."

"Didn't we agree that I would take Yan Yan back?" Tang Guizhi's tone was tinged with anger.

Xiang Yu remained indifferent as Tang Guizhi blocked his way.

“I think Yan Yan prefers to be with me, and being with me also allows her to see more of the world.”

“But she wants to see her parents even more!” Tang Guizhi retorted coldly.

Xiang Yu raised an eyebrow, turned to Luo Yan who was silently cheering her on, and asked, "Yan Yan, do you want to stay with Aunt Xiang or Aunt Tang?"

Luo Yan held Xiang Yu's hand in one hand and Tang Guizhi's hand in the other, saying, "Hello, Auntie."

Unexpectedly, even a three-year-old child could be so conciliatory. Tang Guizhi's good mood vanished completely, and she angrily shook off Luo Yan's hand.

"Okay, I'll go, alright?"

Xiang Yu snorted and led Luo Yan outside.

"Xiang Yu, are you really going to do this to me?" Tears welled up in Tang Guizhi's eyes.

Xiang Yu, with his back to Tang Guizhi, walked to the door and said, "You should understand that as long as you can't kill me, you have to listen to me."

"I didn't mean to kill you..."

Xiang Yu revealed the dagger he had taken from Luo Yan. "Then what is this?"

Tang Guizhi stared in disbelief, “This isn’t mine…”

"Of course you won't admit it. If you did, you wouldn't be the flexible and adaptable Tang Guizhi."

Tang Guizhi felt a sense of helplessness, as if she couldn't explain herself no matter how hard she tried.

Seeing that Tang Guizhi was no longer trying to argue, Xiang Yu said coldly, "Do what you want to do from now on, don't use the child's hands."

Tang Guizhi was furious. "I didn't tell Yichen to ignore everyone. He's the one who refused to go with Xiao Jin. How can you blame me?"

Hearing Tang Guizhi evade the question, Xiang Yu smiled mockingly.

"I'm talking about Luo Yan, you're talking about Yi Chen. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking just because this little girl can't speak clearly? Stop talking nonsense, I don't have time to waste with you."

"What does this have to do with Guan Luoyan?" Tang Guizhi found Xiang Yu's question utterly baffling.

"Didn't you tell her to kill me?"

Tang Guizhi's expression was as ugly as if she had swallowed a fly.

"Would I be crazy to ask Luo Yan to kill you? Xiang Yu, don't be fooled by that little brat. She's definitely trying to sow discord between us."

Xiang Yu froze, looking at Luo Yan in disbelief.

Luo Yan, who had been exposed, remained calm and looked back at Xiang Yu with an innocent expression.

"Did she give you this dagger?" Tang Guizhi asked Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu nodded, and Tang Guizhi grabbed Luo Yan, took off Luo Yan's handbag, and unfastened it.

"I'd like to see what else you've hidden to frame me with."

Tang Guizhi cursed and swore, then dumped everything out of her handbag.

Luo Yan tearfully tugged at Tang Guizhi, trying to stop her from touching her things, but Tang Guizhi suddenly shook her off, causing her to fall to the ground and wail loudly.

The bag was mostly filled with snacks, but a folded piece of paper stood out. Tang Guizhi picked it up, opened it, and was about to tear it to shreds when Xiang Yu snatched it away.

Xiang Yu unfolded the drawing paper, looked at it, and immediately picked up the phone to make a call and ask the other party.

What punctured the tires of Tang Guizhi's car when she picked up her wife?

The receiver wasn't soundproof, and Tang Guizhi could clearly hear the other person's reply.

"According to the people at the repair shop, it was probably caused by a dagger or knife."

Therefore, just as Ni Guanying said, Luo Yan did indeed wander around the airport and happened to see Tang Guizhi puncture a tire with a dagger...

Now that the truth has been revealed, Tang Guizhi wants to use this dagger to kill her, thinking that as long as she dies, everything will be fine and she can replace her as the new heir of the madam.

Xiang Yu put down the phone, her eyes filled with disappointment as she looked at Tang Guizhi.

"Tang Guizhi, what else do you have to say?"

Tang Guizhi was deathly pale. "It must be Luo Yan framing me. Believe me."

"Tang Guizhi, haven't I trusted you enough? How could you treat me like this?"

Seeing that she couldn't explain herself, Tang Guizhi kicked Luo Yan while cursing loudly.

"You little brat, you've ruined my life! I'll kill you!"
