Chapter 186 - Missing both the children and you

Chapter 186 Missing both the children and you

Xia Nuan was touched and lied in his arms, holding him with deep affection.

Then she left his arms and looked out of the window, “Even if I have achieved great achievements, I’m still humble in front of you.”

“I have a lot of problems to deal with and I don’t want to get you involved.” This case couldn’t end in this way.

Moreover, he was surrounded by intrigues, so he didn’t want to get her involved.

Just as before, when Xia Nuan and he were together, everyone was against them and tried to separate them in various ways. He couldn’t get rid of those troubles.

“Well, thanks for your kindness. I should catch the flight.” In her mind, his words were nothing but an excuse.

She felt hurt deeply. However, when she thought that he was willing to explain it to her in a euphemistical way, she felt better.

Ye Sichen had to loosen her and his words stopped on his lips.

Seeing her leave and disappear in his sight, he finally drew back his gaze.

After a while, the safeguard Bill called him, “Sir, Ms. Xia has boarded the plane safely.”

“Well, protect her in secret.”

Ye Sichen hung up, looked ahead and drove away from the airport.

At this time, his phone rang again. It was Ken.

“Is Wen still unwilling to acknowledge his guilt?” He asked Ken.

“Sir, Wen went to the police station to surrender himself. However, he died suddenly as he was arrested. The police were preparing to make a forensic identification for him...”

Ye Sichen’s morale was shaken by his words.

In his investigation, he found out that Ye Linshen asked Wen to kill Su Weiwei. He hoped that Wen could tell the truth to the police. However, now he was dead and all the evidences were gone.

Feeling a little lost, he speeded up the car.

When he was back to Mi Ke’er’s apartment, Ken called him again and said the police closed the case. They declared that Wen was suicide because he felt guilty for killing Su Weiwei.

However, someone said Ye Sichen planned this to clear his name, and Wen was his scapegoat.

Ye Sichen returned to Ye’s family that night.

He took the chance to investigate Ye Enchen and Ye Linshen secretly when he visited Madam Ye.

He found that they had connections with a mysterious group and he was sure it wasn’t Luo’s Group.

Ye Sichen perceived that all his movements were monitored.

Whether he was at home or not, he would check his room and clothes several times until he felt that there was nothing unusual. Then he would feel a little relieved.

As for the three children, he protected them closely and strictly.

Xia Nuan’s clothing brand had reemerged in the top position of the fashion design list. She was busy attending various parties and conferences and dealing with the ladies of the upper class. She knew their tastes and hobbies clearly.

She lost part of the shares of her company because of the large sum of money for compensation. In order to make it up as soon as possible, she was busy communicating and pulling resources every day. However, someone in the fashion circle told her that the largest resource in the circle was Luo’s Group, which could even control the sales of Ye Sichen’s albums. Its influence in the fashion circle could be seen from this.

Hearing Luo’s Group, she thought of Luo Dai’er.

Then she perished the thought to fawn on Luo’s Group.

However, because she was unwilling to contact with Luo’s Group, the sales of her clothes suddenly dropped, and the peers began to isolate her company. She knew that Luo’s Group was behind this.

“Ms. Xia, if we continue to act like this, our company won’t develop well. If we want to enter the international market, we must build a good relationship with Luo’s Group. Otherwise, our brand development will be stagnant.” Lan and some other company managers walked into Xia Nuan’s office.

She also felt a delicacy about this matter, but she wanted to find another way instead of asking for Luo’s Group’s help.

“Don’t worry, let me think about it.” She comforted them.

“Our brand was supposed to be in the top position, but our brand reputation was damaged by an unreal blame. If this continues, it will be bad for our development.” A manager said.

Xia Nuan nodded.

She knew all of this.

On a catwalk show a week ago, a model’s clothes fell to the ground because of mess thread. The model was naked and tried to flee the stage, however, she fell down. Now she was still in hospital. Someone defamed Xia Nuan’s brand and said the clothes of her brand were shoddy.

She knew that these people did it deliberately.

Lan and other managers believed that the brand reputation could only be increased with the approval of Luo’s Group.

However, Luo Dai’er wouldn’t be kind to her, even if she fawned on Luo’s Group.

“We don’t have to pursue a big reputation. Building our own circle is enough.” Xia Nuan tended to maintain the brand’s development.

Realizing she couldn’t be persuaded, Lan left silently.

After three days’ bad time, Xia Nuan suddenly had a big deal...

She met Lan Qing.

Helen was also with him.

“Xia Nuan, I’m good at brand promotion. So, don’t worry, just sign the contract.”

Lan Qing seemed to be impatient to wait. He handed the contract to her. She had a look and felt shocked.

Lan Qing was willing to sign a contract with a value of over hundreds of millions of yuan with her. She should provide clothing to him and he would pay her a lot of money.

“Director Lan, are you sure there is no problem in the contract?” Xia Nuan felt it hard to believe.

Lan Qing smiled and nodded, “No problem.”

Helen took his arm and echoed, “You can rest assured that he will help you promote your brand as long as you sign this contract. And you can make a bundle, doesn’t it satisfy both sides? Nuan, why are you hesitating?”

“If that’s real, I should rebate to Director Lan.” She couldn’t take it for granted.

Lan Qing waved his hand to reject, “It has been clarified in the contract that the profit has been deducted. If you can’t understand the contract, you can take it back to have a check.”

Lan Qing pinched Helen’s face frivolously.

Looking at Lan Qing and the contract, Xia Nuan felt his attitude was casual and perfunctory. However, he didn’t fabricate the contract, and he wasn’t drunk.

It turned out that he was cooperating with her seriously. She earned more than the money clarified in the contract, and as a result, her brand awareness had been greatly increased in the entertainment circle. Many big stars asked Xia Nuan to customize limited edition fashions for them.

“Director Lan, thanks to your help this time. In order to express my gratitude, I’d like to toast to you.” Xia Nuan poured Lan Qing a glass of wine. He received it and clinked their glasses.

They drank the wine off.

“Cooperation leads to mutual benefit, so you don’t have to thank me.”

“Anyway, Director Lan, you’re farsighted, so I would appreciate your guidance in the future.”

“I’m not farsighted. I just learned some knacks since I have been working in this circle for a long time.”

Realizing he was unwilling to say more, she stopped asking. Maybe this was Lan Qing’s trade secret and he didn’t like to be inquired.

When they were talking, Helen called Lan Qing for his whereabouts and wanted to come to him. He replied that he was driving and told her not to come over.

At this time, he was already drunk.

In order to prevent him from falling, Xia Nuan asked the staff to hold him, but he shook him off.

“Excuse me, I have to use the bathroom.” Lan Qing said and then left in a hurry.

Xia Nuan asked the staff to wait for him.

“You’re really annoying. Why are you always pushing me? Can you give me some private space?” He answered Helen’s phone call in the bathroom.

Then he hung up, walked out the bathroom and threw the phone away.

Seeing this, Xia Nuan picked up his phone and followed him to the parking lot.

At this time, Lan Qing’s phone rang again. It was Helen.

The phone kept ringing, so she had to answer it.

“Lan Qing, you don’t wanna be responsible for me, right? What do you mean by your words?” Helen questioned.

In order to comfort Helen, Xia Nuan said, “Helen, it’s me, Xia Nuan. Director Lan will go back soon...”

“Xia Nuan, are you lying to me with him?” Helen interrupted her.

“He is indeed going back.”

“Xia Nuan, you treat Lan Qing as a benefactor. Are you planning to return his help with your body and marriage? In fact, when you lied to me with him, he also lied to you.”

There was a glimmer of jealousy in her words.

Xia Nuan didn’t understand her last sentence.

“Helen, you know that Director Lan and I are just friends.”

“Do you know what he has lied to you? It’s about the contract. It seemed that the contract was signed by you and him. However, it was Ye Sichen who asked him to do that. He told Lan Qing to help you promote your brand. Except signing the contract with you, Lan Qing did nothing and everything was managed by Chen. Your first revenue was also paid by him. He spent a large sum of money to help you with the difficulties. So, the one you should thank the most is not Lan Qing, but Ye Sichen!”

Xia Nuan couldn’t hear her following words, because her mind was full of Ye Sichen.

It turned out that all of this was done by him...

She was touched, looking ahead with her tears falling down.

She went back home, sitting on the sofa and holding her mobile phone. Finally, she called Ye Sichen.

“Hello?” He answered in a low voice.

Xia Nuan’s heart jumped, holding her chest, “Why did you do that?”

He was silent though he knew what she meant, “Why you’re still awake in the late night? Are you missing the children?”

Then he stopped his words for a moment, “Call me in the daytime. The children are sleeping.”

“I miss the children indeed, but I miss you, too.” Xia Nuan’s gentle voice could melt a man’s heart.
