Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Second Brother, Don’t Panic Yet

Li Yehan held Nan Qiao, using the warmth of his body to give her temperature, so she wouldn’t feel so cold.

Li Yehan could even feel the chill emanating from Nan Qiao.

Nan Qiao was scared, frightened by a dream.

“Qiaoqiao, don’t be afraid, it’s a dream, just a dream, not reality. Don’t be scared.”

Nan Qiao grasped Li Yehan’s firm arm, gradually pulling herself out of the nightmare and returning to reality.

For some reason, she had recently been dreaming about things related to the laboratory.

But today’s dream was very special.

“I’m fine now, I’d like to have some hot water.”

Li Yehan: “I’ll get you some water.”

Li Yehan got up to leave, not forgetting to cover Nan Qiao with a blanket before he left.

Soon, Li Yehan brought back a cup of hot water.

Nan Qiao drank half a cup of hot water, and Li Yehan refilled it with the warm milk he had prepared.

“Have some strawberry-flavored milk, isn’t this your favorite flavor? Have some.”

Nan Qiao took a sip, indeed, sweets can bring good moods.

“I’m fine now.” Nan Qiao put down the cup.

Li Yehan returned to the position he had just sat down at and once again held Nan Qiao in his arms, hugging her tightly.

“Li Yehan, go to sleep, if you don’t sleep well, you’ll have no energy for work tomorrow.”

Nan Qiao tried pushing Li Yehan, but he didn’t budge.

“Qiaoqiao, it’s almost dawn, you should sleep for a while too.”

Li Yehan picked up Nan Qiao and placed her on the bed, and they both lay down to sleep together.

Just as Nan Qiao was about to move, Li Yehan leaned over.

“Qiaoqiao, how about I try to lull you to sleep?”

Nan Qiao: “Hmm? You’ll lull me to sleep?”

“Yes, I guarantee you’ll have a good sleep.”

Nan Qiao: “The way you say it, you’ve piqued my curiosity.”

Li Yehan’s thin lips curved slightly, and he bent down to kiss her.

Nan Qiao suddenly understood what Li Yehan truly meant by “lulling her to sleep.”

Li Yehan’s kiss moved downward, passing her jaw, lightly biting on her sensual collarbone.

All the way down, using his teeth to undo the buttons on her clothing.

As the collar was opened, the view was tantalizing.

Li Yehan had seen the spring scenery more than once, yet he found himself ensnared in it time and time again, unable to extricate himself.

The intertwining of breaths, back and forth.

…

Nan Qiao had a good sleep.

Li Yehan got up refreshed.

Li Yehan, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, walked into the study.

The eyes under his short hair were like eagle eyes, exuding confidence in winning from thousands of miles away, aloof and cold.

Li Yehan dialed a phone number, his voice cool like morning dew.

“Old Tang, did Nan Shan disappear?”

Tang Helin, who was asleep, was startled awake by this voice; the days of searching had already exhausted him.

Li Yehan’s words were like a warning bell ringing in his ears.

“How do you know?” Tang Helin couldn’t sleep anymore.

“Qiaoqiao knows?” Tang Helin was even more worried.

Li Yehan: “Qiaoqiao doesn’t know yet; if she knew, the one calling you would certainly be her.”

Li Yehan made this call because of the dream Nan Qiao had.

His intuition told Li Yehan that Nan Shan’s identity still had mysteries.

What Nan Qiao revealed was what she wanted others to know.

What she didn’t reveal was what she hoped others wouldn’t find out.

The way Nan Qiao only shared good news and not the bad made Li Yehan very worried.

Li Yehan asked, “Old Tang, you should know something about what happened before Qiaoqiao met you.”

Tang Helin almost couldn’t find his words.

“You brat, what nonsense are you spouting now.” Tang Helin was wide awake.

“Old Tang, your agitated emotions imply you’re anxious because what I’m saying is the truth, and you’re getting anxious.” Li Yehan calmly stated the facts.

Walking to the window, Li Yehan gazed into the distance.

Living at his own home today, the scenery that lay before Li Yehan was all his domain.

And he, like a king who looked down upon the world.

Tang Helin said, “You heard wrong and felt wrong. Li Yehan, since Qiaoqiao chose you, you should trust her. If you doubt her, I wouldn’t mind persuading my apprentice to divorce you!”

Li Yehan: “Old Tang, Qiaoqiao had a nightmare, she couldn’t sleep well at night. She said in the dream, someone tied her to an operating table and injected her with drugs.”

Tang Helin: “…”

With the conversation reaching this point, Tang Helin didn’t know how to respond without making it seem like he’d revealed something.

“I’ll ask Qiaoqiao about it later, this child just worries about too many things, she’s exhausted.”

Li Yehan: “Nan Shan disappeared?”

The topic circled back, and Tang Helin almost couldn’t keep up.

Seeing he couldn’t keep the matter hidden any longer, Tang Helin could only confess the truth: “Yes, Nan Shan has run away and disappeared again. I’ve been searching with people for days, but haven’t found any results. Please don’t tell Qiaoqiao for now, I’m afraid she won’t be able to handle it.”

“I’ll help search for Nan Shan, and as for Qiaoqiao’s mysterious background, Old Tang, you should think about it carefully.” Li Yehan hung up the phone.

…

Li Nian Technology Company’s product release sparked a hot topic.

Bai Jingyan did not expect the Li Nian Technology Company to not only escape bankruptcy but also to become popular.

Ke Muran also didn’t expect the technology company that Li Ye had closed to turn a profit under new management.

Nan Qiao, learning about this, was called over by Bai Jingyan.

“Sister, take a look at the promotional video released by Li Nian Technology Company.”

Nan Qiao, holding a phone, sat in a chair and watched carefully.

Bai Jingyan had bought her milk tea and prepared drinks, cakes, and dried fruits.

It seemed like Nan Qiao was the boss of this company, and Bai Jingyan was just her personal assistant.

Others were not surprised, having gotten used to it.

Bai Jingyan’s affection for his sister was astonishing.

“Second Bro, who did Li Nian Technology Company hire?”

“Zhao Xun, an internationally renowned technician. I heard Zhao Xun is not driven by money, so I don’t know what Li Nian Technology Company offered to break his own rules and come over to Jing City.”

Nan Qiao: “Zhao Xun has already attained financial freedom, his coming to Jing City should be for personal matters.”

This personal matter might be related to her.

“Second Bro, don’t panic, just follow your plan, I’ll step out for a bit and contact you later.”

Nan Qiao left with her bag, Bai Jingyan couldn’t stop her even when he shouted.

Bai Jingyan: “Sister, walk slowly.”

Nan Qiao had already left, out of sight.

…

Bai Jingyan drove to his own technology company, and just as he arrived at the entrance, he saw Xiao Jie running over anxiously.

“Boss, you finally arrived, we’ve been waiting for you for a while.”

Nan Qiao smiled: “You were waiting for me, why didn’t you call me?”

Xiao Jie: “We didn’t dare to call, Big Brother didn’t allow us to. He said these trivial matters shouldn’t bother you. You have more important things to do, we shouldn’t add to your troubles.”

Nan Qiao walked forward, with Xiao Jie beside her.

Nan Qiao smiled and shook her head, continuing to walk.

“Muran is just too independent; when you need to trouble someone, you should. In the future, if there’s a situation, talk to me, you should learn to be flexible.”
