Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement
Chapter 231: A Man in Love
CHAPTER 231: CHAPTER 231: A MAN IN LOVE
The rare object Ye Ningwan wants is "Tai Sui."
However, it’s not just any ordinary Tai Sui.
Ordinary Tai Sui can be found in abundance.
What she wants is the "Thousand-year-old Tai Sui" hidden deep in the mountains, and it has to be alive.
This makes it really hard to find.
"If it were easy to find, this kind of poison wouldn’t be that frightening," Ye Ningwan said.
Zhan Hanjue said, "I’ll send someone out to inquire about it. As long as it exists, it will definitely be found."
Ye Ningwan nodded.
But soon, something unexpected happened.
Li Qingqing went mad during her detainment.
Wu came over to report this matter, and Ye Ningwan raised an eyebrow, "This trick seems familiar?"
She suddenly thought of Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan also used this method to escape imprisonment, ending up in a mental hospital.
But not long after, she ran away and disappeared.
Ye Xuan was merely a clown; her running away wasn’t a big deal.
But if Li Qingqing uses this method to slip away, Ningwan wouldn’t feel at ease.
Li Qingqing is malicious. If she escapes this time, she’ll certainly return to cause trouble.
"Which mental hospital was she sent to?" Zhan Hanjue asked.
It seems he thought of it too, just like Ningwan.
Wu said, "She was taken by the Philadelphia Mental Hospital."
"Philadelphia?" Ningwan frowned.
She had an outbreak in Jiangcheng, yet is sent to Philadelphia. This is too abnormal.
Suddenly, she thought of someone.
Immediately took out her phone, dialing Liu Shiyan.
"All of Li Qingqing’s endorsements now belong to me, I really need to thank you for this matter. Tell me, what do you want in return? As long as I’m capable, I’ll do my best," the phone connected, Liu Shiyan excitedly promised.
Ningwan said, "The person you mentioned last time, where is he from?"
"No way! You still don’t know him? Really too ignorant, just quickly Google him, he’s so famous, you should be able to find him," Liu Shiyan replied.
"Just tell me," Ningwan insisted.
"Philadelphia, he’s from Philadelphia. What’s wrong?" Liu Shiyan asked in confusion.
Ningwan chuckled.
Indeed.
"I must tell you something. Li Qingqing turned insane and was bailed out, and Philadelphia’s mental hospital took her away. So, after taking those endorsements from her, be careful lately," Ningwan warned.
Liu Shiyan: "..."
Immediately hung up and quickly contacted her agent.
"What’s wrong?" Zhan Hanjue asked.
Ningwan relayed her conversation with Liu Shiyan to him.
"Do you know Wan Yufeng?"
"I’ve heard, but don’t know him. I heard Li Qingqing was supported by him. So you’re suspecting he purposefully bailed her out?" Zhan Hanjue replied.
Ye Ningwan nodded, "Otherwise, it’s too coincidental that Li Qingqing went mad and was sent to a mental hospital, and none other than Philadelphia. Could it be that Philadelphia’s mental hospital is special?"
"I’ll have Wu investigate this matter," Zhan Hanjue said.
"Yes, quickly investigate. I’m afraid Wan Yufeng might take Li Qingqing out. She’s no pushover; once out, she’ll definitely stir up more trouble," Ningwan expressed worry.
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle these things," Zhan Hanjue assured.
Ye Ningwan nodded again.
Originally, she didn’t want to worry about this; there are many things to deal with.
For example, helping Xie Mingyu find an andrologist.
Wu Wei has been sent out for so long, yet there’s no news.
Wu Taotao called her, saying her dad is anxious, wondering why Wu Wei hasn’t returned.
Truthfully, she’s also anxious.
However, whenever she calls Wu Wei, he’s always vague. When she asks him to return, he makes excuses. She even suspects Wu Wei might have met a stunning beauty, unwilling to return.
"What are you thinking?"
Zhan Hanjue hugged her from behind, lightly asking by her ear.
Ye Ningwan was startled, blurting out, "Thinking about Wu Wei."
Once she said it, she knew she misspoke and awkwardly looked up at Zhan Hanjue.
Sure enough, Zhan Hanjue was sulking, looking at her with a dark face.
"I’m wondering why Wu Wei won’t return, the task I gave him has no news. What exactly is he doing?" Ye Ningwan quickly explained.
However, Zhan Hanjue remained unsatisfied, with a sullen face, "All I think about is you, but you in front of me think about another man. Isn’t this bullying me? Should I tell Grandma too?"
Finished speaking, he released Ningwan, preparing to tattle.
Ningwan hurriedly grabbed him, "Zhan Hanjue, don’t be so petty, I’ve explained. I’m not thinking of him, it’s due to the situation."
"But you’re thinking about another man, I’m not happy. Comfort me, if you do, I won’t be upset," Zhan Hanjue demanded.
Ningwan: "..."
She stared at him speechlessly.
This guy... really is... too childish!
"Zhan Hanjue, do you know your age this year? In our rural areas, men your age have kids running errands, yet you still want me to comfort you, are you not embarrassed?"
"Well, I heard people say men in love have childlike qualities. Even when older, since I’m in love now, wanting you to comfort me is quite normal," Zhan Hanjue shamelessly snuggled her, acting spoiled.
Ningwan laughed helplessly at his affection, gently cupping his face, "Alright then, let me comfort you. Darling, don’t be mad, it’s all my fault. I promise, I won’t think of other men in front of you again."
"So you can think of other men when not in front of me?" Zhan Hanjue questioned.
Ningwan was dumbfounded.
This question, she really didn’t know how to answer.
Still, if a question is hard, she prefers not to answer.
Seeing Zhan Hanjue’s aggrieved expression, she slightly curved her lips, wrapped her arms around his neck, lifted on her toes, and kissed him.
She blocked his lips with action.
Zhan Hanjue’s eyes darkened, holding her slender waist to deepen the kiss.
What thoughts were had or not had no longer mattered.
With nightfall just beginning, they had plenty of time.
"Knock knock, Miss Ye, I had the kitchen make something delicious. Will you eat?"
Outside, Wangyue knocked at an inappropriate time.
But neither Zhan Hanjue nor Ye Ningwan were free to notice her.
The two were kissing with lingering passion.
Wangyue waited a while at the door but didn’t hear a response, assuming no one was there.
She shook her head and left.
The next day, as the sun rose high.
Wangyue returned looking for Ningwan to find the door still closed.
Just as she prepared to knock, Mrs. Chen rushed over and stopped her.
"Oh my, my young miss, what do you plan to do?"
"I’m going to knock. It’s quite late, Miss Ye still hasn’t gotten up, I’ll call her to get up," Wangyue replied.
"Don’t call, the Young Master is in there too. It’s normal for a married couple to sleep in. What are you shouting for?" Mrs. Chen advised.
