Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 535 Brother, wait, you're getting cocky.
The car drove smoothly toward the Lan family manor.
Yan Na kept looking out the window at the beautiful scenery. She couldn't help but sigh, "It really is a paradise. There are lush trees on both sides."
Not to mention the beautiful scenery, it's also very pleasant to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Lan Yunchen was driving, and Yan Na was sitting in the passenger seat this time.
In the capital, Lan Yunchen sat in the passenger seat, which is in line with what Yan Na said: in the capital, Lan Yunchen was her person, and in Lan City, she was Lan Yunchen's person.
"Do you like it?" The man in the driver's seat asked casually, glancing at the passenger seat while operating the steering wheel with one hand.
"It's nice. Why does your house live in such a remote place? Do your parents prefer quiet?"
It's so far from the city center, that must be the reason.
This is already the outermost suburb.
"No, it's mainly because the suburbs can build independently, but there isn't that much open space in the city, and there's not enough freedom to develop things." Lan Yunchen said as if he were talking about something very normal.
Yan Na turned around, tugged at her seatbelt, sat sideways, and stared at Lan Yunchen's handsome profile. "Is your house very big?"
Lan Yunchen replied casually, "Not big, just a little bigger than a villa in the city."
The car stopped at one of the manor's entrances, where a row of bodyguards stood. If Lan Yunchen hadn't led her inside, she really wouldn't have been able to find the entrance.
Completely bewildered, Yan Na was seeing this scene for the first time, feeling as if she had entered a secret realm. "Lan Yunchen, is there something you haven't told me, like your family background?"
Lan Yunchen just smiled and didn't explain. He planned to let Yan Na see for herself. The car was parked in the manor's parking lot.
Yan Na didn't get out of the car. Looking out the window and then through the fence, she saw layers of fortifications, all surrounded by bodyguards.
This spectacle looks so familiar...
For an instant.
Yan Na became even more certain that Lan Yunchen was not just a philanthropist in Lan City or a simple president of the Lan Group; he must have another identity.
For example, Han Yue and his family had a rather special way of starting their careers, so they needed layers of fortifications and were always accompanied by bodyguards when they went out. So what about Lan Yunchen?
After getting off the car, the scenery of the manor once again amazed her. This was a paradise on earth, with birds singing and flowers blooming, fountains, swimming pools, and gardens—no wonder Lan Yunchen said to "do whatever you want."
That was truly taken to the extreme.
However, Lan Yunchen seemed to have a misunderstanding about what "bigger" meant. This was much, much bigger than a typical villa, not just a little bit.
Lan Yunxi, who had arrived early, bounced out of the house, wearing slippers, to greet her, "Sister-in-law, come in quickly."
Shen Muyun, wearing a cheongsam and a down jacket, slowly walked out. Lan Chumu had gone to the company today. "Nana, come in quickly. Yunchen, bring your suitcase in. I'll take Nana in first."
"Okay."
Han Yue now treats the manor like home. He leans lazily against the door and gives Yan Na a meaningful look. Yan Na's surprised expression clearly tells Han Yue that the tomboy has no idea that Lan Yunchen is the richest man.
Yan Na also decided to ask Han Yue about it later.
There were already many seasonal fruits on the coffee table in the living room. Shen Muyun had received a message from Lan Yunchen early in the morning and had the maid prepare the room and ingredients for dinner.
"Are you tired? Are you adjusting well? The house is a bit far from the city center, so it takes a long time to get to work. In the future, you and Yunchen can buy a house you like in the city center, or you can live here. It's up to you two."
Shen Muyun was worried that Yan Na would think the manor was too remote, since young people these days like to sleep in and don't like to get up early.
Yan Na didn't have the habit of sleeping in late, but she started doing so recently after getting together with Lan Yunchen. "Auntie, I'll listen to Yunchen. It's great here, I really like it."
Yan Na wasn't lying; she genuinely liked the manor's environment. Besides, she didn't sleep in much, so she had plenty of time to get to work.
Shen Muyun picked up a glass of hot water and handed it to Yan Na to warm her hands. "Don't worry about what your uncle and I think. Just live however makes you happy."
Han Yue remained by the door, watching the people talking inside the living room. When he saw Lan Yunchen enter, he simply turned slightly to the side and did not follow him in.
Lan Yunchen carried the suitcase upstairs, and Lan Yunxi followed closely behind her brother. The two siblings walked side by side. From Han Yue's perspective, all he could see was the little girl smiling brightly, seemingly talking to her brother. This made Lan Yunchen stop and tap his sister's head.
Lan Yunxi stuck out her tongue playfully and happily, making a promise. Han Yue, who hadn't heard the conversation, roughly guessed why her little girl had followed them up and what she had said to her brother-in-law.
It must be referring to Lan Yunchen's setup and photoshopping that led to the subsequent guarantee action.
Shen Muyun chatted with Yan Na for a few minutes, then, worried that Yan Na might not be used to it, decided to leave the room to the younger person. She patted Yan Na's hand and said, "Auntie will go to the kitchen to give some instructions. You can sit down for a while; this is your home."
"Okay, Auntie."
After speaking, Shen Muyun pulled her coat tighter and headed straight for the kitchen. She was genuinely worried about the kitchen and wanted to give them some more instructions, while also wanting to give the young people some space.
Seeing his mother-in-law leave, Han Yue sat down next to Yan Na, leaving a seat between them, and said casually, "Confused?"
"Tell me about it?" Yan Na nodded.
Han Yue smiled enigmatically, "Are all tomboys as bold as you?" Blindly daring, preparing for a whirlwind marriage without knowing the other person's financial situation.
"So what is Yunchen's status in Blue City?" Yan Na held the hot water Shen Muyun had given her in her hands, the warmth spreading from her palms throughout her body.
Han Yue smiled mischievously, his tone rising at the end, "The richest man."
Yan Na: "............" Just by hiring a random man, she became the richest person?
So, isn't Lan Yunchen being a bit too low-key? Ji Hancheng is also the richest man in the capital, and that guy acts all arrogant...
It's normal after marriage, otherwise they'd look down on everyone, acting like they're above everyone else and speaking as if they're about to explode.
Judging from Yan Na's expression, Han Yue was 100% certain that she didn't know her brother-in-law's identity. "Aren't you quite impressed with your own audacity? If you can't find the number one in the capital, you're number two. Congratulations, Yan Dada, you've gained another nickname."
Recalling Shen Muyun's demeanor, Yan Na seemed to understand, and retorted defiantly, "Likewise, did you investigate Xixi's family background before you fell for her? Sharp-tongued Han."
Yan Na wasn't about to be taken advantage of, and continued, "The son-in-law of Blue City."
Yan Na laughed happily. She didn't care whether Lan Yunchen was the richest man or not, but she was still surprised to hear it. Recalling the fact that she paid Lan Yunchen made her laugh. She actually used 100 million to hire the richest man in the city, deliberately emphasizing the last two words, "son-in-law".
Blue City's son-in-law.
Han Yue thought the address sounded quite nice and unconsciously curled his lips. During the conversation, Lan Yunchen came downstairs, and Lan Yunxi held her brother's arm very intimately.
Seeing her sister-in-law chatting casually with Han Yue, she leaned close to her brother's ear and said, "Brother, your sister-in-law is very beautiful and has good taste."
After saying that, Lan Yunxi gave her brother a thumbs up.
As he spoke, Lan Yunchen actually followed his gaze to the beautiful woman sitting on the sofa, "How bad could my taste be?"
"Brother, hey, you're getting cocky, haha."
As Lan Yunchen led Yan Na downstairs with his arm around her shoulder, the two siblings chatted and laughed. Once Lan Yunchen reached the sofa, Yan Na gave the son of Lan City's richest man a second look and casually asked, "What are you saying that makes you so happy?"
Lan Yunxi sat next to Han Yue, tilting her head to say to Yan Na, "My brother said he was able to find you because he has good judgment."
Being praised in front of so many people made Yan Na a little uncomfortable. She twitched her lips, squinted at Lan Yunchen, and asked, "What are you even saying?"
Lan Yunchen made no attempt to conceal Han Yue's presence, continuing firmly, "I'm telling the truth. Does Han Yue agree?"
Han Yue, who was suddenly called out, laughed. The little girl liked this atmosphere very much and laughed without restraint. The large living room was filled with Lan Yunxi's laughter, which was very infectious. Han Yue said calmly, "What Big Brother said makes sense."
Noticing Yan Na's discomfort, Lan Yunchen changed the subject, "Should we go to the company tomorrow, or in a few days? Or should we get the marriage certificate first?"
The last sentence was whispered close to Yan Na's ear, so only the two of them could hear it. To Lan Yunxi and Han Yue, this scene was just a public display of affection, oblivious to everyone else.
"Brother likes sister-in-law so much, hee hee." Lan Yunxi leaned back and whispered.
Unexpectedly, Han Yue turned his head and lowered his voice, "I like you too, there's no need to envy others."
The little girl blushed at the sudden confession and hid further back, muttering softly, "I'm not envious, I'm just happy for them. I know you like me."
Han Yue affectionately rubbed the shy little girl's hands and stopped teasing her. Gradually, as he spent more time with her, she became more talkative, a fact that Han Yue himself noticed.
You can't just let a young girl run around all by herself and put on a one-woman show; she'll get tired of it after a while. So Han Yue is trying to change himself.
When two people start changing for each other at the same time, it's a preservative for lasting happiness. It's not about complaining about why you have to change, but about thinking about how the other person wants you to change and loving them even more.
At this moment, Han Yue and Lan Yunxi are like this: Han Yue is changing himself to talk more, and Lan Yunxi is changing herself to become someone like Han Yue's mother, so that she can help Han Yue and lighten his burden in the future.
"Oh dear, I forgot to let Sister Lu know I'm safe." She said, releasing Han Yue's wrist and taking out her phone to send a message to Han's mother.
The two women's relationship was more like sisters than mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. They could talk about anything. Lan Yunxi would tell Han's mother about any requests she had, and when Han's mother bought Lan Yunxi underwear, she would directly send Lan Yunxi a message to ask what color she wanted.
Lan Yunxi: Sister Lu, I've arrived! Don't miss me too much!
Han's mother: Okay, don't be too hard on yourself with your studies.
Lan Yunxi: I understand.
Han's mother: I had my secretary buy two four-piece bedding sets yesterday. Do you prefer the pink one or the green one?
Lan Yunxi: My pink Lu Jie, yours is green, right?
Han's mother: Okay, if you have any questions, just send me a message. If I don't reply, I'm probably in a meeting and will reply when I'm done.
Lan Yunxi gave Han's mother an OK sign. Han Yue watched the conversation between his mother and daughter-in-law without any attempt to hide it, while Lu Jie completely ignored him.
However, he was surprised that the little girl could get along so well with Sister Lu.
