Chi Yan didn't give Lan Yunhan a chance to speak. She hung up after saying what she wanted to say.
Lan Yunhan's heart instantly sank to the bottom as he felt a chill run down his spine.
Lan Qingquan didn't hear what Chi Yan said over the phone, but when he saw Lan Yunhan's expression, he knew that she definitely didn't say anything good.
He had always felt that Chi Yan was very scheming and wasn't a good person.
He had tried to persuade Lan Yunhan before, but this disappointing fellow didn't listen to him.
"Come with me to the Chi residence tomorrow and apologize to Chi Jiao personally." Lan Qingquan felt that the only way to salvage the situation now was to apologize to Chi Jiao and beg for her forgiveness.
He didn't know where that girl got her capabilities from. Not only did she ruin Lan Yunhan's reputation, but she also wanted to destroy the Lan family.
He only hoped that Chi Jiao would forgive them when the time came.
Lan Yunhan also knew that this was the only path he could take now.
From the moment his relationship with Chi Yan was completely exposed, he couldn't calm this matter even after using all his public relations power. He vaguely guessed that the person behind Chi Jiao was someone their Lan family couldn't afford to offend.
"Alright, I'll go with you," Lan Yunhan said slowly.
The night gradually deepened, and the pitch-black sky was like a huge black curtain, dotted with specks of stars.
After dinner, Jiang Ming consciously went to wash the dishes.
Quan Jue played Aeroplane Chess with Chi Jiao.
Chi Jiao's phone vibrated. She stared at the chessboard as she took out her phone to answer the call.
"Jiaojiao, why aren't you back yet?" Chi Mingwei's gentle voice came from the other end of the line.
Chi Jiao subconsciously looked up at her watch. It was already 10 PM.
She had promised her father that she would come home early.
"I just ate and was planning to go home," Chi Jiao said softly.
"Do you need Daddy to pick you up?" Chi Mingwei asked considerately.
"No need, Daddy. I can take a taxi back," Chi Jiao said with a smile.
"Okay, Daddy will wait for you at home." Chi Mingwei felt that Quan Jue would send Chi Jiao home. Although he was helpless, he really couldn't do anything to her.
Seeing that Chi Jiao had hung up, Quan Jue asked, "Your father called? “
Chi Jiao nodded.
Quan Jue put down the chess piece and stood up. "Let's go. I'll send you back."
Chi Jiao watched as Quan Jue walked to the door and took down the down jacket hanging on the clothes rack. She then grabbed her bag on the sofa and walked over.
Quan Jue personally helped Chi Jiao put on her down jacket and put on her hat. After making sure that she wouldn't freeze, he took her bag from her.
Chi Jiao was very happy for Quan Jue to do this for her. She raised her head and looked at him with reliance.
After packing up, Quan Jue opened the door and walked out with her.
"Brother Quan, I can go back myself." Chi Jiao felt that it was too troublesome for Quan Jue to come back himself after sending her back.
She could go back by herself.
Quan Jue glanced at her and asked meaningfully, "What if we meet a bad guy?"
Chi Jiao tilted her head and thought for a while.
If he met a bad guy, of course he would beat him up until he couldn't take care of himself.
But she naturally couldn't say that in front of Quan Jue.
"We can call the police for help," Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Quan Jue snorted and raised his hand to ruffle her hair. "You have Brother Quan, so don't trouble the police."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the street where they could hail a taxi.
Jiang Ming stood by the kitchen window and watched Quan Jue and Chi Jiao leave with a little envy in his eyes.
That little fellow really liked Quan Jue. He could feel it.
He hoped that her existence wouldn't be known by the Quan family so quickly.
