“It’s Little Bean, she and Pudding are twins.” Huo Mian held her daughter with relief.
“Haha, I know, I’ve already seen pictures of them.”
“You… You’ve been paying close attention to us?” Huo Mian was a little surprised.
Lu Yan nodded. “Mhm, I’ve been doing that all these years. Dad has been doing that too… Oh, right, you saw Dad in the states, right?”
“Saw Dad? No?” Huo Mian was confused.
“Oh, right, I forgot to say. He was wearing a disguise, he had a mask on. He was the old man giving away balloons at Disneyland.”
After Lu Yan said that, Huo Mian finally realized.
“Oh my god, that was Dad?”
“Mhm.”
“I didn’t know, I didn’t know at all. I initially thought… Ah, Chu thought that he seemed suspicious and may pose danger to us so we were alarmed. I thought I felt something was off, I didn’t know that it was actually...” Huo Mian was pleasantly surprised
“It’s okay, we’ll have plenty of opportunities in the future… When I take care of Ian, we can meet anytime, anywhere…”
“Does Qiao Fei know about you leaving?” while driving, Qin Chu asked.
“Qin Chu, you’re such a killjoy… Why mention him out of nowhere?” Lu Yan pouted.
“Who’s Qiao Fei?” Huo Mian was stunned.
“Your brother-in-law,” Qin Chu softly replied.
“Not yet, okay? We’re not married yet…” Lu Yan stubbornly corrected him.
“You’re basically his wife. Didn’t you stay in Russia for the better half of the year?” Qin Chu’s information was quite correct.
“So that I can hide from Ian. It wasn’t like I had a choice…”
Huo Mian was lost, she only knew that her sister had a fiance in Russia.
“Yan, what does your boyfriend do?” Huo Mian was curious.
“He belongs to Russia’s biggest Chinese mafia, he’s an arms dealer,” Lu Yan casually replied.
Huo Mian began coughing violently when she heard that...
“Ahem…”
“Sis, you okay?” Lu Yan nervously looked at Huo Mian.
“Yan, how could you hang out with people like that? That’s so dangerous. Mafia member? Arms dealer?” Huo Mian couldn’t accept that her future brother-in-law belonged to a mafia and was an arms dealer. That was too scary for her.
Seeing how Huo Mian reacted made Lu Yan look at Qin Chu in the driver seat.
“Brother-in-Law, did you not tell my sister about my occupation?”
“Not yet, you can tell her yourself.” Qin Chu had only briefly explained the business between Ian, the Professor, and Lu Yan to Huo Mian.
He didn’t go into too much detail about what Lu Yan did and where she usually hung out.
So, Huo Mian had always thought that her sister was a proper lady with no ability to defend herself.
But the fact was...
“Oh, okay… Sis, don’t be surprised with what I’m about to tell you, uh… I am a mercenary. My team and I take business around the world. I have my own islands in the pacific ocean, and I have my own arsenal… I develop the most advanced bombs and sell them. I take business others don’t have the balls to take as long as I am paid for it. If given the money, I’ll even assassinate a king.”
After Lu Yan finished talking, Huo Mian was dumbfounded...
“Don’t be surprised. If I couldn’t do that, I wouldn’t be alive now… I’m used to it, it’s just like you being a doctor or Qin Chu being the president of a company. It’s just work,” Lu Yan comforted Huo Mian.
“So, are you a so-called assassin?” Huo Mian studied Lu Yan’s face and asked.
