She was very clear about Mrs. Qin's attitude towards her, but Guan Yan had never thought that Ye Lan would consider so much from her perspective.
This feeling of being protected... Guan Yan subconsciously turned around to look at the girl who had just woken up and was standing in the corner with squinted eyes.
She lowered her head and smiled.
—I seem to understand why Sun was moved by these people.
People like them who are used to walking alone in the dark will always succumb to gentleness!

Qiao Nian chatted with Gu San for a few words.
Feeling Guan Yan's gaze on him, he walked over, his eyes half closed, a bit sleepy. He greeted Guan Yan and asked, "What are you talking about?"
She just saw from the corner of her eye that Guan Yan and Aunt Ye were chatting very happily, but she was far away and didn't hear what they were saying.
Guan Yan naturally wouldn't tell her that he had talked to Ye Lan about Qin Si, so he smiled and said, "Nothing. Aunt Lan asked me to go to her house with you for dinner tonight. I agreed~"
Qiao Nian looked at her in surprise, as if he didn't understand why she would agree.
However, Qiao Nian just hummed and pursed his lips. He didn't ask any more questions and said, "I have to go to the sanatorium this afternoon. I'll see you later in the evening."
"Are you sure which hotel you want to stay in?" she asked again.
Guan Yan didn't even bring a suitcase with him. He came here with empty hands, freer than tourists. He shrugged and said, "I wanted to just find a hotel to stay in. But Auntie Lan said she had arranged a hotel for me, so I'll just stay in the hotel she arranged."
Qiao Nian looked at her with more surprise.
Guan Yan knew what she was surprised about, so he didn't explain and continued, "Oh, right, Sun, what do Young Master Ye and Auntie like? I want to go out for a walk this afternoon and buy some gifts. Otherwise, it would be a shame to visit empty-handed."
Just because the people in the illegal area are used to being free and unrestrained doesn't mean they don't know etiquette and are like barbarians.
Ye Lan arranged a hotel for her and invited her to dinner at her home in the evening.
She received these kindnesses and naturally wanted to repay the kindness.
And the Ye family lacks nothing.
She just wanted to express her feelings. "The old man likes tea, and as for Aunt Ye." Qiao Nian thought about it and said, "She likes jewelry."
"OK." Guan Yan smiled brightly and said, "I'll go to the mall this afternoon and buy two sets if I see something suitable."
Qiao Nian didn't stop her, she just said, "You don't have to buy something too expensive, just show your thoughtfulness."
"good."
Guan Yan agreed readily, but he was thinking in his heart about the industries he had invested in Country Z, whether there were any companies related to tea and jewelry.
She is the person who loves doing business the most in the Red Alliance.
Business is spread all over the world.
But compared to a practical person like Ye Wangchuan, Guan Yan prefers to buy shares and invest in companies, so she seems to have quite a few affiliated companies under her name, but she can still run around easily.

Qiao Nian came back in a low-key manner this time and did not inform anyone in advance.
She separated from Ye Lan and sent Guan Yan to the hotel.
Guan Yan refused to accompany her to check in, so Qiao Nian made an appointment with her for dinner and watched her walk into the hotel.
After Qiao Nian closed the car window again, he was ready to ask Gu San to go to the sanatorium.
Ye Wangchuan suddenly said, "Can I go back first and get something?"
Qiao Nian propped up his chin, glanced at him, and nodded: "Okay."
She took out her cell phone and sent a WeChat message to Jiang Zongjin, and then spoke to Jiang Li.
The car started again and drove towards the place they hadn't returned to for a long time.
