Leng Youlan casually glanced around, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowing. It seemed she was going to be the center of attention again. This time, however, the spotlight wasn’t on her, but on the two men sitting across from her.
Seeing the server lingering after bringing the drinks, Leng Youlan said indifferently, “Would you like to sit and chat?”
“Sure!” the server exclaimed joyfully, immediately realizing her impropriety and blushing as she ran away.
“Didn’t expect the ghostly princess to tell jokes,” the handsome man who had caught the thief earlier said teasingly.
“Not as good as the Leight family’s young master hiring someone to be a thief,” Leng Youlan glanced at the other man, speaking coldly.
“How did you know?” He Laixiu was somewhat surprised by the woman’s perceptiveness.
“What matters is why you’re looking for me?”
“You know I’m looking for you?” After asking, He Laixiu wanted to die.
[Volume 2: 15, Lei Tian Yi Arrived]
After the conversation at the coffee shop, Leng You Lan lost interest in shopping. She simply hailed a taxi to return home. Leng You Lan, who often traveled between countries, was proficient in multiple languages.
The car drove smoothly, and Leng You Lan’s gaze looked out the window. A corner of a city square caught her attention.
A thin, weak young man was surrounded by three foreign men, suggesting an unpleasant situation. Many people were watching. Leng You Lan stared at the young man, lost in thought. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck her.
“Driver, stop!” She threw down several bills and walked towards the crowd.
Pushing through the crowd, Leng You Lan confirmed her suspicion after seeing the young man’s appearance. This was the man from the information Ju Shui had given her. Today, she was determined to take him back.
Leng You Lan made up her mind but did not act immediately. She stood in the crowd, observing slowly. She never fought without certainty – in this, she was similar to Lei Tian Yi.
“No, I won’t leave France,” the frail young man shouted.
“Sir, if you’re unwilling to leave, I can help you,” a man in a black suit said threateningly.
His right hand slowly reached inside his suit.
The onlookers involuntarily gasped and took a step back, which highlighted the composed Leng You Lan. Seeing the man’s cigarette, they all exhaled heavily.
Leng You Lan looked at the man coldly, knowing his actions were intentional. Since she would eventually intervene, this worked fine. She gently touched her abdomen and softly said, “Baby, Mommy will be careful, you be good, okay?”
The man playfully toyed with the cigarette in his hand, his eyes fixed directly on the composed, cold woman. This was the man’s first assessment of Leng You Lan.
“Aren’t you afraid?” the man asked sharply.
“Afraid of the cigarette in your hand?” Leng You Lan responded casually, still cold.
“Haha! Well said!” The man laughed loudly, surprising even his long-time brothers.
Leng You Lan looked at the laughing man and could sense the hidden sorrow in his laughter. “Ah! Another suffering soul.” However, her purpose here was the frail young man.
“Master, how should these people be handled?” After taking care of everything, Qi looked at Lei Tianyi’s ice-cold face and asked carefully.
Coming back to her senses, Leng Youlan pointed at the thin, young man and said calmly, “I’ll take this one. As for the others, go and investigate their background.”
“Also, have someone clean up the blood here.” In fact, no one had died; the people on the ground had just passed out from pain.
But no matter what, it wasn’t good to be seen by so many people. She looked around, and the square was now empty except for a few of them. She secretly admired this, worthy of being Youming, so meticulous in his actions. If she had the chance, she would definitely want Youming’s training personnel to teach her properly.
The onlookers had been cleared away before Lei Tianyi’s arrival. However, it seemed that Leng Youlan’s reactions had become much duller since becoming pregnant, so she hadn’t noticed the changes around her.
Lei Tianyi said coldly, “No need to investigate.”
Leng Youlan’s heart skipped a beat. Could Lei Tianyi really be letting her go? Her nose felt sour, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
“Why?” Leng Youlan asked in a hoarse voice, her body tensed tightly. She was afraid she would be condemned to hell the next second.
Lei Tianyi looked at Leng Youlan’s tense body and felt a strange confusion. Was she afraid? “What are you afraid of?” He unconsciously voiced his inner question.
“I’m not afraid,” she said in an even more tense voice, making her words sound incredibly unbelievable.
Lei Tianyi walked up to Leng Youlan, looking directly into her eyes. “Look at me and say that again.”
“His beautiful eyebrows were furrowed, his sharp facial features, and the bulging veins on the back of his hand all showing that he was suppressing his anger. He hated not understanding this girl’s feelings, as it made him feel like he could lose her at any moment.
Leng Youlan difficultly raised her head, fighting back tears rolling in her eyes, her tightly bitten lower lip seeping with traces of blood. She told herself it was nothing, but when she saw Lei Tianyi’s furrowed brow, she couldn’t help but reach out to smooth it. A heartbroken voice naturally and softly escaped, “Don’t frown. I don’t like it.”
“My girl, what am I going to do with you?” Lei Tianyi stretched out his strong arms and embraced his girl. Leng Youlan’s tears could no longer be contained and flowed down.
A gentle wind blew, moving the surrounding flowers and grass, but unable to touch the hearts of the two pressed closely together. A long silence, a long-missed warmth, familiar scent, same body temperature, synchronized heartbeats – an indescribable mutual affection.
The sun slowly moved to directly overhead, indicating the passage of time.
A “gurgle, gurgle” sound brought Lei Tianyi’s light laughter. “My girl, are you hungry?”
Leng Youlan blushed, lightly hitting Lei Tianyi’s chest, coquettishly saying, “Not me, it’s the baby.” Secretly thinking to herself, “Baby, don’t blame mommy.”
“Baby?” He laughed even louder, gently stroking his girl’s belly. “Baby, daddy will take you to eat.”
Sitting in a traditionally decorated Chinese restaurant, Lei Tianyi had specially sent people to investigate this place. He had many places he wanted to explore with his girl.
The handsome man and beautiful woman combination successfully drew everyone’s attention, but what was even more captivating was the handsome man’s careful and considerate treatment of the stunning woman.
“Yi, you’ve prepared enough food. Why don’t you sit down and eat too?” Leng Youlan glanced around, then looked at the piled-up food on her plate, speaking softly.
“Girl, let me just remove all the fish bones, why don’t you eat some shrimp first? The boss said they’re very fresh,” Lei Tianyi said gently, laughing while dealing with the fish.
Leng Youlan picked up a peeled shrimp, slowly putting it in her mouth and chewing. She helplessly watched Lei Tianyi seriously removing fish bones, suddenly feeling an infinite tenderness. “Yi, I like you.”
“Hm? Girl, what did you say?”
Lei Tianyi happily placed the deboned fish in front of her, asking gently.
Realizing she had spoken her heart, Leng Youlan smiled happily, teasing, “I said, you’re removing fish bones so slowly!”
“My girl, ever heard of ‘practice makes perfect’? This is my first time. I’ll get faster once I’m used to it, got it?”
Understanding the implied meaning in Lei Tianyi’s words, Leng Youlan smiled sweetly, “Then I’ll have to give you more opportunities to practice.”
“Yes, you’ll give me more opportunities?” Lei Tianyi immediately agreed, wanting to be with his girl every day.
