At first I thought Narino had gone out to buy breakfast.
When she took her cell phone to send him a WeChat message, she saw that Narino had already sent her a message, saying that he was going to the morning market to get familiar with it.
Xiang Huan was about to brush his teeth when Pan Ning, whom he mentioned just yesterday, made a video call.
She didn't answer and hung up, and continued to brush her teeth. She called back after she was done. Of course, there was no video, so Pan Ning couldn't see where she was.
Pan Ning asked Xiang Huan if he hadn't gotten up yet and where he was now.
Xiang Huan replied that he was not in Lincheng or Marriage Town, but did not specify where.
Pan Ning naturally understood what this meant, and after a moment of silence, he said that there was a problem with the Marriage Town project. The people there said they couldn't find Xiang Huan, so they had to look for her again.
"How come you can't find me? My phone is always on and I'm not here, but I have no problem contacting me. What happened?" Xiang Huan asked in a tone that suggested something was none of his business.
Pan Ning sighed, but didn't immediately say what happened.
Xiang Huan waited without speaking first. She didn't want to take the initiative because she didn't know what Pan Ning was going to do.
After a while of silence on both ends of the phone, Pan Ning told Xiang Huan that she was planning to withdraw from the project in Marriage Town.
This was something Xiang Huan didn't expect. Pan Ning rarely made this kind of decision in business.
Pan Ning didn't beat around the bush and said it was simple because she didn't want to pursue a career in the rest of her life and was ready to quit the world.
This was something Xiang Huan didn't expect. How could someone like Pan Ning take the initiative to let go of his so-called career.
Guessing what kind of trap it was, Xiang Huan continued to say nothing, waiting for Pan Ning to continue.
Her reaction made Pan Ning a little dissatisfied. Her tone returned to the way she had been when they got along in the past, and she asked Xiang Huan if he only cared about how her property would be distributed.
A disdainful smile appeared on Xiang Huan's lips, and he replied that he didn't need to give her a penny, she didn't need it.
Pan Ning sneered and said, "It's none of your business if you don't want to. I don't want to be known as having no family ties. I should leave you a lot, but I won't let Xiang Huan take over the business."
Xiang Huan simply remained completely silent.
Pan Ning was not surprised to see this situation, so she continued to talk about her arrangements. She had already begun operations to change hands or end the company as soon as possible.
Preliminary negotiations have been made to take over the Marriage Town project.
When Xiang Huan heard this, his first reaction was that of Xu Jiandong.
"That ex-husband of yours really impressed me. I didn't expect that the Xu family would have a leader like him, and he would be the one to take over."
Pan Ning quickly verified her intuition that it was the third young master of the Xu family.
Xiang Huan narrowed his eyes when he thought that Xu Jiandong had taken over the project of converting an old house into a hotel in Chengye. He was really addicted to taking over other people's things.
One after another.
"I wish you a happy cooperation. What do you need from me here?" Xiang Huan started to feel a little upset and urged Pan Ning to tell her something.
Pan Ning's tone was obviously more cheerful. She said that she was looking for Xiang Huan urgently because she needed to sign a few contracts. It would be best if Xiang Huan went to town.
"No, I can't go." Xiang Huan immediately objected.
Pan Ning was not in a hurry and continued to say that since he knew you would not agree readily, he would ask the lawyer to bring the documents and ask Xiang Huan to tell her his current location.
"No way."
Pan Ning sneered, "Why, you are with Cheng Ye again, so I can't say where you are."
Xiang Huan was mentally prepared to hear this, so he was not nervous, nor did he continue to remain silent. He just asked Pan Ning to think of other ways, as neither of the two things he just mentioned could be done.
Before Pan Ning could answer, Xiang Huan heard the sound of the key opening the door. It must be Cheng Ye who was back.
Just as Xiang Huan was about to end the call, Chengye had already opened the door and entered the house.
Seeing Xiang Huan listening to his cell phone, Cheng Ye raised the two large plastic bags he was carrying and motioned for him to go to the kitchen.
"Let's leave it at that, I have something to do here." Xiang Huan quickly hung up without giving Pan Ning a chance to speak.
She followed to the kitchen and watched Narino open the ice cream
I put things in the box and asked how the morning market was and if it was far away.
"Who are you calling?" Narino asked back.
"It's Pan Ning's." Xiang Huan didn't hide anything and went on to talk about the content of the call.
Chengye put away the things and closed the refrigerator door, then turned to look at Xiang Huan, "How about you go to Marriage Town, and I'll leave here for a few days."
After hearing this, Xiang Huan immediately darkened his face and asked Cheng Ye why he was leaving, where he was going, and whether he would come back.
A series of questions were spoken very fast, and his breathing became rapid after speaking.
She was flustered, and the shadows of several unpleasant experiences in the past were all brought back by Narino's words.
The plot is about to repeat again, isn’t it?
Chengye's face was still calm. Looking at Xiang Huan who suddenly changed his face, his eyes were gentle and he said softly, don't be so sensitive and listen to his explanation.
He first put a cup of hot soy milk on Xiang Huan's hand and inserted a straw into her to remind her not to burn it. He said that he had queued for ten minutes to buy this soy milk and it was said to be very delicious.
Xiang Huan held the soy milk in her hands but did not drink it. She was eagerly waiting for Chengye to get to the point. She had no intention of eating or drinking now.
Chengye drank more than half of his glass in one go, and then continued to look at Xiang Huan with a comfortable look on his face, saying that he was leaving for a few days to return to Lincheng.
"Mom is sick and not in good condition. I talked to Cheng Tianyu on the phone this morning and will leave tomorrow morning."
Xiang Huan listened and unconsciously squeezed the soy milk cup tightly with his fingers, making a clicking sound.
"Originally, I wanted to take you back with me, but seeing what you just said about Pan Ning, I think it's better for you to go to town and settle the matter, so as not to cause trouble in the future."
Chengye said, raising his hand, brushing a strand of Xiang Huan's hair to his ear and tucking it behind his ear.
With this series of movements, his fingers were pressed against Xiang Huan's ears, and their cold fingers sent shivers down Xiang Huan's back.
I also feel a chill in my heart, which is particularly uncomfortable.
Cheng Ye saw Xiang Huan's reaction and continued to talk to her in a gentle tone, "Don't start thinking about it again, it's okay. I will pick you up in the town then, and we will come back here to celebrate the New Year together. It will only be a week at most. "
"We met, it's the Chinese New Year again, what if... I don't want you to leave." Xiang Huan directly expressed his worries.
She felt that she would probably face this situation when she saw Mrs. Cheng who was ill.
Narino shook his head and looked toward the window with blank eyes.
"No, she's unconscious. She probably won't have another chance to talk to me normally."
Xiang Huan was stunned for a moment, not expecting Mrs. Cheng to be so ill.
"Then I'll go and have a look with you first. She's pretty good to me, so forget it if I don't know. I'll go to town after seeing her." Xiang Huan really wanted to visit.
Narino still shook his head, "Don't go, just do as I say."
Xiang Huan still wanted to say a few words, but Chengye looked away and looked at her, "I hope to see her for the last time. Cheng Tianyu made it clear that I cannot appear at her funeral. This is the last time."
What he said was so calm and gentle that no emotion could be heard, but it made Xiang Huan's face turn pale.
"Okay. I'll listen to you and book the tickets first." Xiang Huan picked up the phone and didn't want to keep looking at Chengye.
She needed to calm down.
