Mrs. Qin's face was full of kindness as she gently took Yan Lan's hand.

"Your mother is right. She just recovered from a serious illness, and the doctor repeatedly told her to stay cheerful."

Shen Yunzhong continued,

"And about your sister moving into your villa, I haven't even had the chance to properly tell you guys off. You've spoiled her."

Shen Yunzhong has always been suspicious about the relationship between Yan Lan and Qin Shi. This suspicion is like a seed, slowly taking root and sprouting in his heart.

Recently, he finally found some evidence that he believed confirmed his hypothesis.

Bai Xiaoyu, the secretary that Shen Yun recently hired, was recommended by Qin Shi.

Out of curiosity, Shen Yunzhong asked around and learned that Bai Xiaoyu had received financial support from the Qin family when she was studying.

It can be seen from Bai Xiaoyu's words and expression that she does not know Qin Shi's true identity.

Shen Yunzhong rarely saw his son so attentive to a woman. This level of attentiveness even exceeded his towards Yan Lan, which made him wonder secretly.

Shen Yunzhong already had a plan in mind. He planned to use the excuse that Yan Lan needed to recuperate and let the two move back to Yunhu Villa to live for a while.

In his opinion, as long as the two people are under his nose, he can tell at a glance whether there is real love between them.

If there really is a problem in their relationship, then he will have to make good use of Bai Xiaoyu as a chess piece.

After hearing this, Yan Lan's face suddenly showed embarrassment.

The rules of Yunhu Villa are much stricter than those of the villa. She felt a headache when she thought of those complicated rules.

Besides, if I move to the villa, I will inevitably have to live in the same room with Qin Shi again.

Ever since she had an "entanglement" with Qin Shi in the car a few days ago, Yan Lan felt short of breath whenever he got close to her. The strange feeling made her feel a little at a loss.

"Blue?"

Mrs. Qin's voice was soft and full of anticipation. "Wouldn't you like to come back to the villa and stay with me?"

Mrs. Qin looked at Yan Lan with eyes full of expectation, and the desire in her eyes was irresistible.

Yan Lan met Mrs. Qin's gaze, and her heart softened. She couldn't bring herself to refuse. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded gently and said, "Mom, of course we are willing to go back and accompany you."

At this time, Qin Shi also quickly agreed: "Yes, Mom, we will definitely go back."

He also had his own little calculations in mind, otherwise Qin Shengsheng, that brat, would still stay in their room and refuse to leave, forcing him to sleep in the study every day, alone on his pillow, which was really tormenting.

After hearing this, Mrs. Qin's slightly frowned brows instantly relaxed, and her face turned from worry to joy. She smiled and said, "That's right, a family should be together."

Qin Shi accompanied Madam Qin back to Yunhu Villa.

At this time, Yan Lan returned to the villa again.

Her luggage was light, so she packed it simply, just a few small boxes. After she finished packing, she checked the time and saw that Qin Shengsheng still had a long time before get out of class was over.

Bored, her eyes fell on the laptop in the corner.

Yan Lan walked over and turned on the computer.

She operated skillfully and turned on the monitoring device installed on Liu Jinnian's driving recorder.

In an instant, all kinds of noisy sounds came out from the computer, including the roar of vehicles, Liu Jinnian's occasional cough, and some conversations.

Yan Lanping held her breath, listening intently to the voice coming from the monitor. The first thing that entered her ears was the conversation between Liu Jinnian and Yan Xue.

Liu Jinnian's voice was filled with concern as he asked softly, "Xiaoxue, why are you so depressed?"

Yan Xue sighed heavily, her tone full of annoyance, "Don't mention it, I'm afraid my dad won't be able to be promoted to minister."

Liu Jinnian seemed a little surprised, and then asked, "Didn't you say that there is a great chance that uncle will be promoted to department head in the second half of the year?"

There was a sense of loss in Yan Xue's tone.

"Originally, it was supposed to be like that, but my dad had surgery to remove his gallbladder. The department was worried that overworking him would affect his health, so they delayed his promotion."

Hearing this, Yan Lan was not too surprised, but just raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Yan Lan listened to the words coming out of the computer and thought to herself, Yan Feng's inability to get promoted is undoubtedly a big blow to the Yan family. Given the Liu family's snobbish attitude, Yan Xue and Liu Jinnian's marriage is likely to be fraught with difficulties.

As she expected, Liu Jinnian was silent for a long time after listening.

Afterwards, Liu Jinnian blamed himself,

"Xiaoxue, this is all my fault. I'm not a good student."

Yan Xue immediately refuted when she heard it.

“How can I blame you for this?

If you want to blame someone, blame Yan Lan and that ghost doctor. The physical examination that Yan Lan arranged for my dad was not reliable at all.

And that ghost doctor, if she hadn't refused to do the surgery herself, maybe my dad wouldn't have needed his gallbladder removed."

Her voice was filled with resentment, as if Yan Lan and the Ghost Doctor were her sworn enemies.

A faint sneer appeared on Yan Lan's lips. Just as she was about to continue listening, she heard the sound of a driver's horn coming from the parking lot outside.

She knew that Qin Shengsheng had returned, so she turned off the computer.

Not long after, Qin Shengsheng walked into the house.

Qin Shengsheng, who is usually full of energy, seems a little depressed at this moment.

She hung her head, her steps were not as brisk as usual, her schoolbag was casually slung over her shoulders, and as soon as she entered the door, she sat down heavily on a chair beside her without saying a word.

Seeing this, Yan Lan couldn't help but feel curious. What happened to Qin Shengsheng, who is usually so clever and quirky, today?

Yan Lan looked at Qin Shengsheng's depressed face, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said half-jokingly,

"Why, when I heard we were moving back to Yunhu Villa, you were so unhappy?"

Before this, Yan Lan sent a message to Qin Shengsheng, telling her that they had to go back to Yunhu Villa and live together for a while.

When Qin Shengsheng heard this, he quickly stood up and waved his hands vigorously.

"No! I really miss my mom.

It’s just…sister-in-law, that traitor Ji Qingchuan has dropped out of school.”

After saying that, she sighed helplessly, her face full of loss.

"What? Ji Qingchuan dropped out of school?"

Yan Lan's eyes widened slightly, her tone full of surprise. In her impression, Ji Qingchuan was a very good pianist.

Although he had stood Qin Shengsheng up during a cultural performance not long ago, Qin Shengsheng was still very angry.

She couldn't help but become curious.

"Why did he suddenly drop out of school? Do you know the reason?

I remember you said he was a good student."

Qin Shengsheng didn't dare tell her brother and sister-in-law that because of the art performance, Cheng Lingling had someone break Ji Qingchuan's hands.

After that, Ji Qingchuan was hospitalized.

Later, she heard that he had dropped out of school.

When Qin Shengsheng heard the news, she felt empty and uncomfortable in her heart, but she didn't know why.
