Because Lan Wenxuan was there, A Miao could not show any emotion. Even though her heart was about to explode, she had to hold on, until she got back home. She and Lan Wenxuan talked about some unimportant things, then she went back to her room.

She rushed into the bathroom and turned on the tap. She immediately called Ouyang Jin.

“Hello.” When his low and cold voice came on, A Miao’s tears flowed.

“Shen Xinglan!”

Shen Xinglan ignored the teasing eyes of Ouyang Jin, and took the phone outside the bedroom.

“Dear, don’t cry.”

She was fine before he said that. When A Miao heard his words, she started to cry.

“You are too annoying. You did not even let me know!”

“I wanted to surprise you.” Shen Xinglan smiled, “I hear the sound of water. Is it safe to talk now?”

A Miao sniffled and said, “Well, I went to the bathroom and turned on the shower. They can’t hear our voices from outside. “And, it was not a surprise!”

A Miao thought it was more like a fright.

“Have you been planning this for a long time?”

She thought that since Shen Xinglan dared to come out so audaciously, he must have been well prepared. And this preparation could not definitely have been done within a day or two. Maybe it had been planned since she arrived in Jingcheng City.

“Well, when you decided to come, I started planning in order to find ways to stand by you.”

The low laugh of Shen Xinglan could be heard. He said, “How could I let you face everything on your own? I should have protected you. “So, I am here…”

“Whooo…” A Miao was breathless because she was crying, and this made her voice intermittent and hard to be heard.

Shen Xinglan comforted her over the phone for a while, to calm her down.

“What’s your exact plan?” “What the hell are you planning?” A Miao washed her face and asked.

“A single man who is widowed, meets a single woman who looks like his late wife. What kind of story do you think will happen?” Shen Xinglan said humorously, “My wife, I have to pursue you again.”

A Miao opened her mouth and said something after a while, “This is crazy!”

“This is normal, isn’t it?” Shen Xinglan comforted her and said, “The Lan family will definitely go to City S to check. I have arranged everything.” “The business here in Jingcheng City has been in operation for six months already, so it is proper for me to come over now.”

“Ok…” A Miao knew that this man had always been smarter than herself. She could not change the things he had decided, and the fact that she also missed Yaya so much! When she thought about being able to see her daughter more often, A Miao became happy.

“What do I have to do for you?”

The voice of Shen Xinglan suddenly became a few degrees lower. He said, “You need to kiss me now.”

“…scandalous.” A Miao said, “Wherever you are, you are always joking.” She could not help laughing.

“I’m serious.” Shen Xinglan sighed and said, “When I saw you at the party today, I almost wanted to kill that guy from the Lan family, and take you away.”

A Miao quietly listened to this man’s words, listening to him talking about how he survived all these months and how much he missed her. While listening, she felt particularly at ease, and her tightly strung nerves slowly relaxed.

“You don’t need to do anything. Just wait for me to pursue you.” In the end, Shen Xinglan said over the phone, “We have Yaya. She is the best catalyst.”

“As for the specific details, it would be better if you don’t know, so the performance at that time will at last be natural!”

A Miao held her mobile phone, and later they started a video chat. The two people talked until the middle of the night. When she went back to bed, she was still so excited that she could not get up the next morning.

Lan Corp.

“Shen Xinglan?” Lan Hua frowned and said, “This person is from City S, isn’t he? “Are you sure it’s him?”

Lan Wenxuan threw the papers on the desk and said, “He personally admitted it. Do you think he is a fake?”

“He has a very young daughter. We didn’t expect that she would call your good niece, Mom.” Lan Wenxuan raised an eyebrow and said, “You were not at the scene at the time. A Miao was shocked and terrified.”

If A Miao heard this, she would definitely despise him. “It’s obviously due to excitement…”

“I heard that his wife died in a car accident six months ago, but why did her daughter address A Miao as Mama?”

Lan Wenxuan pointed to the folder and said, “Take a look and you will know.”

“This……”

After a few minutes, Lan Hua closed the file and said, “It’s such a coincidence. From the photo, Shen Xinglan’s deceased wife looks really like A Miao.”

“I think it is just a 70 percent resemblance.” Lan Wenxuan said, feeling that it was the case.

Lan Hua nodded and said, “You are quick this time. It only took you a morning to get all the information about him.”

“I don’t mean to find fault with A Miao.” Lan Wenxuan rubbed the space between his eyebrows and said, “I just want to know what Shen Xinglan wants to do.”

“The result of your investigation is that some of his previous investments have gone wrong, isn’t it? So this time he came to liquidate?” Lan Hua suddenly narrowed his eyes, “Liquidation…”

Lan Wenxuan smiled and said, “There are a few real estate projects in his hand, and one of them is in the development plan for the second half of this year.”

“Find an opportunity to talk to him.” Lan Hua thought for a moment and said, “But don’t be too obvious.”

“Don’t worry! I know the limits!”

A Miao was excited and eager as she waited for Shen Xinglan to start his action plan. However, nothing happened for a few days. She received an invitation from a fashion brand for a weekend event.

The invitation was given to her by Lan Qin. It meant that she had to go, unless she had some special reasons. So, the next day, A Miao drove there by herself.

When it was over, a bunch of people gathered around her and toadied up to her. A Miao made some small talk with them politely, and then found an excuse to leave.

“Mom!” She just arrived at the parking lot, when she heard someone calling.

She was so surprised that she looked around her surroundings for a long time. She finally found that it was Yaya, crouching under a tree.

“Mom!” Seeing her coming over, Yaya hugged her legs and said, “Dad doesn’t want me. I have no place to go.”

“Σ(°△°|||)_Shen Xinglan, is this is what you are teaching her?”

“Mom!” Yaya looked at her with tears in her eyes, and said, “You are my mother, right?”

A Miao sighed. She decided to follow the script, so she knelt down and wiped away Yaya’s tears. She said, “Auntie is not your mom. Where is your dad?”

“Then will you be my mom?” Yaya snuggled into her arms and said, “Yaya misses her mom. Could you be my mom?”

A Miao held back her tears and held the little girl up. She said, “There!” “If you tell me where your dad is, I will think about it.”

“Dad is over there!” Yaya said, pointing to a cafe next to them. “He was talking to an uncle I didn’t know. They were talking for a long time and Yaya needed to pee. A beautiful aunt brought me out, then I saw mom!”

The corners of A Miao’s lips twitched. “Is this part of the script or are these true…”

“Auntie will take you to Dad.”

As soon as she walked to the door of the cafe, she saw a few people rushing out, headed by Shen Xinglan.

“Dad!” Yaya shouted.

Shen Xinglan caught a glimmer of a smile in her eyes. He stood there, calmly.

“Mr. Shen…” A Miao said, pretending to be unfamiliar with him, “Good to see you again. Your daughter just ran to find me, this…”

“Thank you.” Shen Xinglan reached out to hold Yaya.

However, Yaya was clinging on to A Miao’s neck and said, “No!” “I don’t want to go!” “I want to be with mom!”

“Director Shen, what is going on now?” The middle-aged man who came out with him, asked curiously, and there was a pretty girl behind him, who was staring at A Miao with an unhappy look on her face.

When A Miao saw her, she was thinking, “This guy has only recently arrived and already starting to attract beautiful girls.”

“This must be Miss Lan?” the man said. They obviously knew who A Miao was, and greeted her politely.

Shen Xinglan felt somewhat helpless. He said, “Sorry for all these. Miss Lan resembles my late wife. My daughter had mistaken Miss Lan for her mom, at a party before. I did not expect it. What a coincidence, that we should meet again today.”

“I said that I did not lose her!” The girl who had been silent, said in an aggrieved tone, “She just ran off in the blink of an eye…”

The man surnamed Ma gave his daughter a look, exasperated at her failure to make a good impression. He said, “All right. You are an adult. How could you blame a child?”

“Mr. Shen, you’d better pick up your daughter first!” A Miao gave him a covet glance as she handed Yaya back.

Yaya was very clever, because she then grabbed A Miao’s hair, which made it impossible for both of them to move.

“Oh, Yaya, let her go!” Ma Zhenzhen could not help shouting, “This is not your mom, your mom, she has already…”

“Miss Ma.”

“Zhenzhen!”

Shen Xinglan and Ma Tao interrupted her at the same time, which scared Ma Zhenzhen.

“Mr. Ma, let’s find a time to continue our discussion later.” Shen Xingluan said. Shen Xinglan’s expression was grim. He looked at Ma Zhenzhen, warningly and said, “I hope at the next meeting, there will be no irrelevant people present.”

Ma Tao laughed embarrassedly and said, “Director Shen, what are you talking about. Hehe…Hehe…”

“Let’s go.” Shen Xinglan ignored him, and turning to look at A Miao, “Shall I drive Miss Lan back?”

“…Thank you.” A Miao said. She looked at Yaya who was still clinging on to her, and nodded to Ma Tao and his daughter. She followed Shen Xinglan and left.

As soon as they got into the car, Yaya happily sat on A Miao’s thighs and asked, “Mom, are you coming to our house?”

“Not yet, next time.” Shen Xinglan touched Yaya’s head and said.

A Miao pointed to the opposite side, indicating that her car was still there.

“No problem. You can come back later.” Shen Xinglan said and started the car. Since Yaya had been staring at her, A Miao dared not speak. She knew that her daughter was very smart, and if Yaya heard something and repeated it to others in future, she would be in trouble…

Shen Xinglan drove the car around. Gradually, Yaya began to feel sleepy. But each time she was about to close her eyes, she would open her eyes suddenly, and then clutched A Miao’s hand.

“Mom…” The little girl said, leaning into her arms, calling her from time to time, which almost broke A Miao’s heart.

Finally, Yaya failed to keep awake. After closing her eyelids a few times, Yaya fell asleep eventually.

“When you go back today, remember to relate this to the Lan family, especially to Lan Lixiao.” Seeing Yaya asleep, Shen Xinlan said, freeing his hand and touching A Miao’s face.

“Next time, I will find an opportunity for you to bring Yaya to the Lan family’s house.”

A Miao nuzzled his palm affectionately and said, “You should give me some hints in advance next time. Today, I was almost scared to death.”
