Chapter 2012: What Brings You here From Beijing
Nian Junting frowned.
He was a soft-hearted person, and this was indeed the first time Xu Baohan had begged him like this. Although he was secretly happy, he still felt a little sorry for him.
He was caught in a dilemma, “An Lan did ask us about the value of our investment when she bought a real estate in the past.”
“Tingting…” Xiao Si was displeased.
“This is her problem, after all. An Lan has to stand up even if she wants to break up. It’s not a good idea to hide,” Nian Junting said lightly.
Xiao Si thought about it and agreed with him. He sighed and said, “She seems to have a condominium over there in the Lan Ting Building. I don’t know which floor exactly.”
Xu Baohan’s eyes lit up as he stared at Xiao Si. “Thank you.”
Being stared at by a man, Xiao Si felt a chill run down his spine.
After receiving the news, Xu Baohan left quickly. Although he didn’t know which floor she was on, it didn’t matter. He could wait downstairs. If she stayed here, she would definitely come back.
…
Zhuo Cheng was fresh.
An Lan knocked on the office door. The general manager of Xia City, Mo Rong, was on the phone, sighing, “Mom, you can only persuade Auntie to be more open-minded. It’s not a good idea to cry all day. If you have time, you can accompany her for a walk. I’ve told them to spend more time with their son, but now that he’s gone, what can I do? Alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. I still have something to do… I’m hanging up.”
“The agreement and project proposal are ready.” An Lan put the doc.u.ments on the table, then sat down and asked casually, “Why? Did something happen to someone at home?”
Mo Rong sighed again and said, “Something happened a long time ago. It was my cousin. He went to Italy a few months ago and got into trouble. He was kidnapped. There’s no news of him in fact. He probably got killed.”
An Lan was stunned. She remembered that Nian Junting had told her about Nian Xi’s boyfriend in Italy during the New Year. What a coincidence, she asked, “What does your cousin do?”
“He does research,” Mo Rong said regretfully, “I don’t have much contact with my cousin, and he never talks to us siblings. But he died at such a young age. It’s a pity. I heard from my aunt that his son found a girlfriend. By the way, he’s also from Xia City. I planned to visit him this year, but now, I don’t need to.”
An Lan grumbled in her heart. Nian Xi was also from Xia City. It couldn’t be such a coincidence, right? If it was, this world was really small.
However, he had already disappeared, so mentioning it would only add to the sadness.
“Sigh, let’s not talk about these sad things anymore.” Mo Rong waved her hand and picked up the doc.u.ments she had brought with her, “Lawyer An, you’re really efficient. I heard last week that you were busy and hadn’t been with your boyfriend for a long time. You could only give it to me next week, but I didn’t expect it to be brought forward.”
An Lan felt bitter in her heart. She had already quarreled with Xu Baohan, so she could only focus on her work. “Yeah, I didn’t expect myself to be so efficient.”
She smiled sheepishly.
“Lawyer An, I quite like you,” Mo Rong said with a smile. “It’s a pity that you have a boyfriend. Otherwise, I might have set you up with my cousin.”
The cousin she was talking about was Xuan Yuanlang.
Before An Lan could speak, a clear laughter suddenly came from behind. “An Lan and I have known each other for a long time. I still need you to set me up.”
An Lan was stunned. She turned around and saw Xuan Yuanlang stately walking in wearing a dark brown windbreaker. The smile on his face was elegant and charming.
“What brings you here from Beijing?” Mo Rong smiled faintly.
