Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 30: Let's make a deal

Views:

Yan Hua turned on the light and saw that the man didn't even take off his coat, just sitting on the sofa.

"Sorry." Thinking of what she heard yesterday, Yan Hua couldn't be nice to him, "Sorry to disturb you, I'll find some medicine and leave."

Lang Ruoxian rubbed his brow and said in a muffled voice: "Are you sick?"

"No, Xiaoshi." Yan Hua said and went to the kitchen. She remembered that her aunt had put a bottle next to the refrigerator.

When she found the digestive tablets, she turned around and saw Lang Ruoxian standing at the door.

"Please help me get a glass of water."

Only then did Yan Hua realize that something was wrong with him. She didn't want to help him pour it, as it would be more troublesome to alert others. So I reluctantly poured a glass of... particularly ice-cold water.

"Thank you." Lang Ruoxian reached out to take it, and a smell of alcohol hit his face.

Yan Hua covered her mouth and took a few steps back, glaring at him: "Have you been drinking?"

Lang Ruoxian didn't speak, but he took a few steps back and got out of the way: "Go to rest early."

"..." Yan Hua pursed her lips and frowned as she walked past Lang Ruoxian. In addition to the smell of alcohol, this man also smelled of fragrance and... candles

She wondered if she smelled it wrong. The scent could be interpreted as a woman's perfume, but the smell of candles...

Yan Hua felt it was more like incense in a temple.

"Second Young Mistress, are you awake?" The next morning, as soon as Yan Hua opened her eyes, she heard someone knocking on the door.

Open the door and Auntie is standing at the door.

"Second Young Mistress, the eldest young master said that you are going out for lunch today, so I am taking a leave to go back and see my grandson."

Of course Yanhua didn't want to go out to eat with any young master, but she was too embarrassed to let her aunt stay. In the past, the Lang family's chefs and servants would take holidays during the Chinese New Year. This year, because of her special needs, an aunt was left to take care of her.

"I understand, feel free to go back. You can stay for two more days."

After her aunt left, Yanhua checked the food delivery app and felt relieved when she saw that many places were open for business. She can order takeout for two days! A living person can still be choked to death by urine.

However, Lang Ruoxian didn't give her this chance and knocked on the door at around ten o'clock.

"I don't want to go out." Yan Hua came in without following him and stood at the door.

Lang Ruoxian frowned: "Then we also need to eat."

"I'm not hungry."

"My nephew is hungry."

Yan Hua looked at him with a cold expression. The two looked at each other for a while, and it was Lang Ruoxian who spoke first: "You haven't been feeling well since yesterday. What's wrong?"

"It's okay..." Yan Hua's eyes flashed, "Wait for me while I change clothes."

Lang Ruoxian wanted to ask anything else, but the door slammed shut.

“…”

Yanhua changed her clothes and adjusted her mood. She wanted to treat Lang Ruoxian the same as Lang Hongyue as soon as possible. They were no different. She was self-righteous, and now she has to rebuild her psychology from scratch...

"Let's go!" Yan Hua opened the door a few minutes later and smiled at Lang Ruoxian, "Can I eat Sichuan food?"

Lang Ruoxian narrowed his eyes: "Okay, I know there is a restaurant that is not too spicy and is suitable for you to eat."

Within a few minutes, the woman's mentality changed. Lang Ruoxian was sure that she hated him very much yesterday, and the disgust in her eyes could not be concealed at all. What made her suddenly change her attitude

"You don't have to accompany me to eat out tomorrow. I can order takeout." On the way back, Yan Hua took the initiative.

The two of them had a meal in peace. Yan Hua had a good appetite and she understood things well and never bothered others.

Lang Ruoxian parked the car and looked sideways at her: "You misunderstood. The ingredients are guaranteed wherever I take you. It doesn't matter if you order takeout, but I'm afraid my nephew can't."

"Haha, my son, I know what's appropriate." Yan Hua rolled her eyes at him, opened the door and got out of the car.

Lang Ruoxian got out of the car and called her: "Are you interested? Let's make a deal."

"Not interested." Yan Hua didn't even look back.

"What if I help you find your family and investigate your identity?" A man's voice came from behind.

Yan Hua hesitated, and Lang Ruoxian had already passed by her: "It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go out and talk tomorrow."

"No need." Yan Hua still refused.

Lang Ruoxian's expression changed: "You don't want to know who you are?"

"I know what you want to talk about, but I'm not interested." Yan Hua said lightly, "I'm not interested in becoming a bargaining chip between your Lang family."

Having Lang Hongyue is enough, she doesn't need another person to control herself.

Lang Ruoxian's eyes turned dark, and he took a few steps forward to illuminate her in the shadow. Yan Hua instinctively retreated and hit the door: "You are too close."

"Still so stupid!" Lang Ruoxian mocked her, "Read more books if you have nothing to do."

Yan Hua found that every time she provoked this man, he would suffer from snake syndrome. But Yan Hua is not prepared to change, and he deserves to be so angry!

"It's none of your business whether I read or not. Please get out of the way, you're hitting me in the stomach." Yan Hua said expressionlessly, unaware of how ambiguous her own words were.

Lang Ruoxian lowered his head and looked down. His belly was close to Yan Hua's belly, and a burning feeling came from his heart. He turned around and pushed the door open and entered the villa. Yan Hua looked at his back.

"..." Why do I feel like I'm running away

She thought the matter was over, but who knew that Lang Ruoxian didn't ask her to go out the next day, but instead ordered lunch from Lang's hotel and threw a book to her.

"Emperor Kangxi?" Yanhua looked at the title of the book. It was such a thick book...

Lang Ruoxian was putting on his coat, obviously going out: "I have something to do today, I'm afraid you'll be bored at home, so read a book to pass the time!"

"Haha! The eldest young master is right." Uncle Li agreed, "Stop watching soap operas all the time. It's not good for prenatal education."

Lang Ruoxian looked at Yan Hua with a fresh and handsome look: "If you need anything, just ask Uncle Li, or call me."

If you dare to talk to me now with a sick expression, I will listen to you. Yan Hua laughed in her heart, looking at this hypocritical man, she wanted to throw the book at his head.

"What the hell..." After returning to the room, Yan Hua threw her hand on the carpet and lay in a daze on the soft duvet. After a while, she picked up the book and flipped through a few pages.

Strictly speaking, this is not a history book, it is an unofficial history at best, so some of the plots are quite attractive. She looked in unknowingly, and when she came to her senses, she realized that it was already dark outside.

"Ha..." Yan Hua stretched out, touched her belly, and glanced at the book thrown on the bed.

Why did Lang Ruoxian want to read such a book to her? Now think about it, there must be a reason for that man not to do something inexplicably...

Because of the doubts in her heart, Yan Hua was absent-minded during dinner. The aunt who cooked came back in the afternoon, and she and Uncle Li were discussing something unknown at the kitchen door.

"Oh, my in-laws are so pitiful. Although the eldest and second son didn't want to care about him before, they both wanted the old man to live with them in order to get that house. Now the second son's family has died in an accident, and only the eldest son is left. Don’t worry about the old man.”

Uncle Li said helplessly: "I didn't want to take care of it in the first place. I used to be afraid that I wouldn't be given a house, but now he's the only one left. What else is he afraid of?"

"Why don't you tell me! It's better to have two children..."

The two old men were talking about common things, but Yan Hua was suddenly stunned.

"Two... two..." She stood up suddenly, and the chair scratched the floor, which startled Uncle Li and Auntie. They thought something had happened to her and ran over in a hurry.

Yan Hua waved her hand: "I'm fine, I'm full!"

"Are you really okay?" Uncle Li looked at her.

"I just thought that a favorite variety show is about to start." Yan Hua smiled, "I will go back to the room to watch it."

Uncle Li watched her walking and kept nagging: "Slow down, slow down, be careful..."

Yanhua returned to the room and picked up the book Emperor Kangxi to read again. After a while, she slowly put down the book, her eyes bright.

"Hello, Lang Ruoxian?"

Lang Ruoxian had just finished taking a shower in his apartment, his hair still dripping with water. He was not surprised at all when he heard a familiar voice on the phone.

"How... have you figured it out?"

Yan Hua on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment, and then said firmly: "Find a place and let's talk."

"I'm going back now, don't lock the door."

Yan Hua was obviously frightened: "You... what did you say?"

"I said let's talk in your room. I'm going back now."

"No, we can make an appointment during the day, I..."

"Didi didi..."

The phone was hung up.

Yan Hua threw her phone away and was so angry that she couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Leave the door open for you? I'm not stupid." She locked the bedroom door and went in to take a shower. Usually it takes a while to come out of the soak, but today I resigned myself to drying it off halfway through the soak, changed into some home clothes, and then picked up the hair dryer to dry my hair.

Just after drying, the door was pushed open.

"I thought you would lock the door." Lang Ruoxian walked in.

Yanhua: Will I tell you that I just opened it...

"Don't look like I'm going to do something." Lang Ruoxian took off his coat and sat down on the sofa.

He didn't even go back to his room, he came straight over.

Yan Hua found a seat as far away from him as possible and said, "I agree to cooperate with you."

"It's not stupid." Lang Ruoxian flicked his hand on his leg a few times, "I like to cooperate with smart people. If you are not smart, then be obedient and don't hold back."

"But I want to make sure of one thing." Yan Hua stared at him, "Did you find those two thieves before?"

Lang Ruoxian raised his beautiful eyes and said, "Of course not, how do you think I would do that kind of thing."

"I heard you talking to Babyface."

"So you were dissatisfied with me before because you thought I was going to get those two thieves out of the police station?" Lang Ruoxian sneered, "Do you think it's better for them to stay in prison?"

Yan Hua nodded and shook her head: "I think the sentence they gave is too light. He should be imprisoned for thirty to fifty years. But... now he will be released in just a few months."

"I'm not here to discuss the two thieves with you." Lang Ruoxian leaned on the sofa, "but you can rest assured that they will definitely want to go back to prison at this time."

Yan Hua opened her mouth, but finally compromised: "Okay, I believe you once."

"Then we can talk about cooperation now." Lang Ruoxian looked at her with a half-smile, "Tell me what you want."
