Something Is Wrong
“What’s wrong with you?” Han Xing was taken aback, unsure of what to do. He couldn’t sit still or stand, so he could only hand a tissue to Han Yanran and gently pat her head.
“It’s alright. If you encounter any grievances, you can just tell me,” he said.
Han Yanran leaned her head against Han Xing’s chest, looking up at him. A hint of mischief appeared on her delicate face.
“Xing, would you ever abandon me? After our parents passed away, you’re the only family 1 have left.”
“I’ll never abandon you,” Han Xing reassured her softly. “You’re the only sister 1 have.”
“But, but I’m not your real sister!” Han Yanran said, her voice filled with even more sadness after speaking those words.
“No matter if you’re my biological sister or not, I will always take care of you,” Han Xing gently patted her back, feeling something amiss deep down.
Han Yanran had never spoken in such a manner before, and if there was truly something bothering her, she would never cry so desperately in front of him.
“Can you hug me then, big brother?” Han Yanran asked, her gaze fixed directly on Han Xing. His discomfort was evident from her unwavering gaze, but he still gave her a gentle hug.
Han Yanran’s eyes shimmered with a hint of triumph. As Han Xing embraced her, she took advantage of his inattentiveness and boldly planted a kiss on his lips.
Han Xing’s eyes widened abruptly, and he quickly pushed her away. “What are you doing? No! You’re not my sister. Who are you exactly?”
“Brother, what are you talking about? I’m not your sister, who else could 1 be?” Han Yanran maintained her innocent expression, but her eyes were full of wickedness as she licked her lips in front of Han Xing.
Furrowing his brow, Han Xing kept his distance from her. He carefully observed the person in front of him, and no matter how he looked at her, she was undeniably Han Yanran.
Just as Han Xing was hesitating whether to call Shangguan Xuelan, Han Yanran’s expression suddenly changed, and she looked a bit puzzled at the scene in front of her. “Brother, why are you standing there?”
She noticed the seafood on the table and exclaimed in surprise, “Wow! Did you order supper?”
Excitedly, she sat down and directly put several shrimps into Han Xing’s bowl. “I just woke up and went to the kitchen to find something to eat. When did you bring this back, bro? 1 don’t remember anything.”
Han Xing didn’t say anything. He carefully observed her for a moment, confirming that she was indeed Han Yanran. Only then did he relax and sit down. Thinking about the scene just now, he didn’t know how to explain it to Han Yanran.
“Not long after, go ahead and eat!” Han Xing forced a smile, but Han Yanran didn’t notice anything unusual. She happily inquired about the situation in Han Xing’s game.
After the two finished eating, Han Yanran cleaned up, then bid Han Xing farewell and went back to her room to sleep.
It was already midnight. Worried about disturbing Shangguan Xuelan, Han Xing sent her a message, briefly describing Han Yanran’s situation.
Early the next morning, he received a message from Shangguan Xuelan, but before he could check his phone, he received a call from Zhang Huaimin.
“Han Xing, 1 found the information you asked me to look for. If you have time, come to the hospital and pick it up.”
“Alright, thank you, Professor Zhang. I’ll come this afternoon.” It was faster than his expectations, nearly half a month earlier.
Little did they know, Zhang Huaimin had arranged more than ten assistants to search for information, and it took them quite a while to find it thoroughly.
Shangguan Xuelan had actually harbored suspicions before, but upon seeing the information sent by Han Xing, she was momentarily unsure of what to do.
“I believe it must be related to witchcraft poison, or else we should go and ask Mr. Mo!”
Fortunately, they had kept Mr. Zhou’s phone number before they left last time, or else they would have had to make another trip to Stone Village to find someone.
“This is the situation, Mr. Zhou. Do you have any good suggestions?”
Zhou Shengwu didn’t expect that Han Xing’s sister’s condition would have new changes. His voice carried a hint of seriousness, “Don’t worry too much. Let me go and ask Mr. Mo. If there are any issues, I will inform you promptly.”
Han Xing breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his words, “Alright. Thank you for the trouble, Mr. Zhou.”
After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Xuelan and Han Xing arranged to meet at the cafe. She yawned, propping her head with her hand.
Seeing her tired appearance, Han Xing felt a twinge of guilt. “You’ve been working hard these past few days, and 1 haven’t let you rest properly. Now I’ve called you out again.”
“It’s fine, it’s fine!” Shangguan Xuelan hurriedly waved her hand and said with a sweet smile, “Hey, you’re my guild master.”
This scene happened to be witnessed by Luyao, who happened to be there buying coffee. She had seen Shangguan Xuelan at the hospital before, and now her suspicions were confirmed. She knew that Han Xing couldn’t possibly have changed his mind!
The thought of Han Xing casually giving that woman one million last time made her burning with jealousy. It must be a vixen seducing him; otherwise, Han Xing would never break up with her.
With this in mind, she changed her expression and walked up to the two of them with a pitiful look. She looked at Han Xing and softly asked, “How have you been recently?”
Han Xing glanced at her, unsure of what she was up to. However, he didn’t bother with Luyao and simply ignored her.
On the other hand, Shangguan Xuelan immediately recognized the woman in front of them. Wasn’t she the person who cheated on the guild master?
She narrowed her eyes, an idea forming in her mind. She took a sip of her coffee, looked at Han Xing, and said, “Darling, didn’t you say you wanted to take me shopping for a handbag? Why are you still sitting here?”
After finishing speaking, she provocatively glanced at Luyao, nearly driving her to the brink of explosion with Shangguan Xuelan’s expression. When she was with Han Xing, he was always obedient to her.
Now this woman dared to show off in front of her. Who did she think she was?
Taking a deep breath, she looked at Han Xing and said, “Han Xing, is there really no chance for us anymore?”
“Just because of this woman, you’re giving up on our years of relationship?”
“Enough.” Han Xing remained expressionless, gave her a brief look, and said, “1 don’t want to get involved in your affairs with Liu Feng anymore. Let’s part ways amicably and don’t bother me again.”
“That’s right!” Shangguan Xuelan stepped forward and held Han Xing’s arm. “Come on, let’s go, darling. Take me to the mansion to see Yanran.”
Shangguan Xuelan kept winking and making faces, afraid that Han Xing wouldn’t understand her meaning.
Seeing her like this, Han Xing couldn’t help but suppress a laugh and nodded. “Alright, alright, 1’11 take you there.”
After saying that, the two of them bypassed Luyao and headed straight to a luxury car. As Han Xing opened the car door for Shangguan Xuelan, Luyao stared at them in disbelief, her eyes widened.
How could Han Xing be so rich? When she heard that they were going to the Han’s mansion, she didn’t even believe it.
When she saw Han Xing’s car, her heart trembled even more..
