Lan Heng and Ouyang Jin had met three times. The first time, Lan Heng gambled away 20 million, after he lost to Ouyang Jin. The second time, Ouyang Jin was in trouble, because he had an affair with the mistress of the gangster boss. Lan Heng saved him, and asked him to pay 30 million in return.

The third time was now.

“Gambling is so good.” “God of gamblers, you do know how to enjoy yourself, ” Lan Heng said, looking at him, and stepping into the room.

Ouyang Yan smiled and said nothing to follow. Ouyang Jin smiled and said nothing. He just followed Lan Heng. Although the two did not have much contact, Ouyang Jin knew that Lan Heng was a person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Once he suspected someone, he would rather kill 10,000 innocent people than let the guilty one live.

He was really heartless and cruel.

“Four young masters, the lord is waiting for you in the study!” “Fourth Young Master, Elder Master is waiting for you in the study!” Uncle Fu smiled and greeted him. When he saw Ouyang Jin, he stunned and asked, “Mr. Ouyang?”

Ouyang Yu waved his hand: Ouyang Jin waved his hand and said, “I heard that A Miao was ill. I came to visit her.”

“Miss may be sleeping…” Uncle Fu said. He was somewhat uncertain, but he could not let Ouyang Jin go upstairs on his own.

As he expected, he heard Ouyang Jin saying,

“Then I will go up and see her.”

Uncle Fu felt it was inappropriate and wanted to stop him. Lan Heng glanced at him and said, “Dad is looking for me, isn’t he? Let’s go.”

Ouyang Jin walked past Uncle Fu and turned, as he went upstairs. He said, “I will just go and see her. If she is asleep, I will come out.”

“…Hehe.” Uncle Fu laughed. What could he say? Lan Heng was heading for the study, and he hastened to follow him.

Ouyang Jin quietly entered A Miao’s room. He saw her sleeping soundly, covered by the quilt. However, since her nose was stuffy, she had her mouth open and looked like a duck.

“Pfft…” Ouyang Jin failed to hold back his laughter and laughed aloud.

A Miao opened her eyes suddenly, her eyes filled with wariness. She was relieved when she saw that it was only Ouyang Jin.

“How did you come?” “Why are you here?” She asked, then took two sheets of tissue from the bedside table, and blew her nose.

Ouyang Yan frowned and looked at her: Ouyang Jin frowned and looked at her. He asked, “So serious?” He thought it was merely a little cold.

“I’ve been very tense over the past half-year. I had a fright last night, and was also exposed to the wind…” A Miao sneezed and said, “No problem. Illness is a way of self-regulating.”

“What did Lan Heng do?” Ouyang Jin asked, as he poured a cup of hot water for her.

A Miao told him what had happened last night, sniffling all the while, and at the end, she said her heart was still fluttering with fear, “When his eyes are fixed on you, they look like two knives. It’s so terrible!”

“Hm, I’ve already reminded you.” Ouyang Jin said. Ouyang Jin looked at the medicine on the table. He asked, “Is it time to take your medicine?”

A Miao shook her head and said, “I will take it in the afternoon. “You said that he is such a tough guy. Then why is the Lan family now run by his eldest brother?”

“Lan Heng has always been responsible for their overseas business, and it is he who does not want to stay in Jingcheng City.” Ouyang Jin lowered his voice and said, “I heard that he once fell for a woman. But then the woman died and no one knew why. Later, he became like this.”

A Miao shivered and said, “Let’s not talk about him.”

They were in the house of the Lan family now. They had to be careful, in case someone overheard their conversation.

“Nobody is outside. I’m listening out for them!” Ouyang Jin said. His sixth sense was very acute. If he said that no one was outside, then there certainly would be no one.

A Miao sniffled and said, “I thought you left with Shishi.”

“I just accompanied her for a while.” Ouyang Jin said in a slightly helpless and pained tone.

A Miao was about to comfort him, when she saw him suddenly blinking He then raised his voice and asked, “When you get over your cold, can we have a date?”

“…” A Miao glanced at the door and understood his behaviour. She sneezed and said, “Maybe later!”

Ouyang Jin put on a look of prodigal love and said, “I have asked you to go out with me several times. Why don’t you ever agree?” “Please tell me which areas am I lacking in, am I not good enough for you?”

“Achoo!”

“You are just fine.” A Miao said. The corners of her lips twitched. She was not very comfortable with this kind of drama. She answered, “But we are not right for each other.”

Ouyang Jin was enjoying himself. He asked, “What is not right?” “In fact, we are perfectly matched.”

“Interesting!” A Miao deliberately said this in a mean way, “How many people has Mr. Sima said these words to?” “And, this is my room. Please get out of my room!”

They were silent for a moment.

“Okay!” “I am in no hurry. Rest well and take care of yourself. I will ask you out again after you recover.” Ouyang Jin said. He stood up and winked at A Miao.

He opened the door and walked out. He saw Lan Heng standing there.

“I didn’t make an appointment with the beauty.” Ouyang Jin loosened his tie and said, “Do you know what your niece likes?”

Lan Heng pulled his eyes away from Ouyang Jin, and slowly walked downstairs. Ouyang Jin followed him and said, “Well, you also cheated me of 30 million. I don’t care about it. For money’s sake, just help me!”

“I do not owe you money. You offered.” Lan Heng said. Lan Heng walked into the living room, sat down and took out a cigar.

Ouyang Jin helped himself and took out one cigar. He said, “My original intent was to come to Jingcheng City for a holiday. I didn’t expect to meet A Miao. I fell in love with her at first sight!”

“If she likes you, do as you wish.” Lan Heng said. Lan Heng glanced at him indifferently, “But I am very curious. When did Jingcheng City, a place of snow and ice, become a holiday resort?”

“You can’t say that,” Ouyang Jin leaned back on the sofa and said, “It is easy to get tired of sunbathing on those small islands. I was about to go to Country J. Who knows I would meet your nephew on the plane? So I came to Jingcheng City with him. Anyway, I have never been here.”

Lan Heng laughed, and no one knew whether he had believed Ouyang Jin’s words or not.

“In this case, I will treat you to dinner, as a host.”

A Miao stood at the window, and watched Ouyang Jin and Lan Heng drive away. Outside the window, there were snowflakes falling, and the potted plants in the garden had turned white.

“This should be spring snow…” She said and breathed on the window. It was too cold for her nose and she sneezed again. She said, “Hope this is a good sign!”

It took a whole week for A Miao to recover. At the moment, A Miao’s detention also ended, so Lan Qin called her.

“The weather is warm now, and there are more and more banquets in Jingcheng City. There are a few that you must attend. “Your previous performance was pretty good. Keep it up.”

A Miao obediently nodded. She and Lan Lixiao were going to the auction today. At first, Lan Lixiao was worried that she might not want to go, because this was something that only old men would like. However, A Miao was very interested in accompanying him to the auction.

“I heard that they have bronzes in today’s auction.” Lan Lixiao said quite excitedly, when they were on the road, “The seller is a foreigner. We can take this opportunity to buy the national treasure and take it back.”

A Miao browsed through the auction catalogue and asked casually, “What does Grandpa like to collect?”

“Oh yes!” Lan Lixiao patted her hand and said, “How could I forget to let you see my collection? A Fu, you did not remind me!”

Uncle Fu, who was sitting in front, smiled and said, “Don’t you always feel that other people will damage your treasures?”

“Nonsense!” Lan Lixiao said. He did not admit it, “A Miao is not someone else.”

Then he turned to look at A Miao, “When we go back in the evening, Grandpa will show you!”

“As long as you are willing to do it!” A Miao smiled and said, “I must take a shower, before visiting your treasures.”

“Hahaha!” A Miao kept making Lan Lixiao laugh. Uncle Fu turned his head with relief. He thought that ever since Miss Elder returned, Elder Master had always been in a good mood, and at the same time, became stronger.

The auction was not open to the public, because the origin of some of the items could not be revealed. A Miao followed Lan Li Xiao into a well-decorated tea house, and someone immediately came over to lead them to an underground room.

“Master Lan is here!” An old man dressed in a Tang suit greeted them as soon as they entered. When he saw A Miao, his smile was even bigger. He said, “Let me have a look. This must be your dear granddaughter?”

Lan Lixiao’s smile couldn’t be concealed. He said, “Even if you are jealous, you cannot have one. A Miao, call him, just call him Old Dog Liu!”

“Grandpa Liu…” A Miao said. She dared not address him as such, so she greeted him in a respectful way.

The old man standing opposite them, seemed very happy. He said, “Well, I’m stronger than your grandfather. Come!” “My welcome gift!”

As he spoke, he took a bag from his pocket and handed it to A Miao.

“Take it. No need to stand on ceremony with him!”

When A Miao saw Lan Li Xiao acting so casually, she thanked Grandpa Liu, and picked it up. She opened it and then handed it back quickly. She said, “I can’t take such a precious welcome gift from you.”

“Hey?” The old man, known as Old Dog Liu asked with, his eyes shining, “Do you know what this is?”

A Miao smiled and said, “The spring water jade of the Liao Dynasty. I believe you can only view it in museums.”

She touched the warm and heavy little jade box with her hand. There were exquisite carvings of the typical Liao Dynasty flower and grass style. She knew straight off that it belonged to the royal family from the Liao Dynasty.

“Great!” Old Dog Liu looked at Lan Lixiao and said, “Your granddaughter has better eyesight than you.”

Lan Lixiao was so proud that his beard seemed about to fly off. He said, “True!” Then he stuffed the item into A Miao’s hands. He said, “Just take what he is giving to you!”

“Just take it as a token!” Old Dog Liu waved his hand and said, “Let’s go! Let’s take a seat. It’s about to start.”

This room was small, but the decoration was very elegant. There was a small table in the middle, with a circle of sofas around it. A Miao and Lan Li Xiao sat at the center of the sofas. There were probably less than ten people next to them. All of them were elderly people.

They greeted Lan Lixiao in a familiar way. They all seemed to be acquainted with each other.

“Our goal today is this!” Lan Lixiao said, pointing to the waist-high bronze tripod on the catalog.

A Miao whispered, “I don’t know much about bronze!”

“No problem. Just watch and have fun!” Lan Lixiao said, patting her hand.

In a villa community in the southern suburbs of Jingcheng City, Ouyang Jin was ringing the doorbell.

“Ouyang Dad!” Yaya opened the door and greeted him in a lovely manner.

Ouyang Jin smiled and held the little girl in his arms, “Does Yaya baby miss me?”

“Well…” Yaya bit her finger and then dared not to look at him, covering her face with her hands. She said, “Yaya forgot to think about you…”

“Then Ouyang Dad will not give his gift to Yaya!” Ouyang Jin pretended to be sad and said, “Later I will give it to your brother Chu Bai!”

Yaya immediately hugged him and said, “Yaya miss you now! “Miss you now!”

Then she closed her eyes and held her head with her hands. She muttered, “I miss Ouyang Dad so much, miss Ouyang Dad so much!”

“Okay!” Then Yaya looked at him and fluttered her eyelashes. She said, “Yaya finished missing you!”

Ouyang Jin burst into laughter and said, “How can our Yaya be so cute!”

“Hurry, come in. What are you doing at the door?” Shen Xinglan came out from the inside and said, “Yaya did not wear a jacket.”

“Yep!” “Let’s go in!” Ouyang Jin said. He took Yaya into the living room, and handed a paper bag to her.

Yaya dug inside and pulled a beautiful little hairpin from it.

“Thank you, Ouyang Dad!” she said. She then happily took the hairpin over to the mirror.

Ouyang Jin looked at Yaya, who waddled away. He asked Shen Xinglan, “Have you arranged everything?”

“Well, next week. I can’t wait anymore.”
