Chapter 710: Chapter 710: There’s Something Very Important to Tell Lu Shiran Chapter 710: Chapter 710: There’s Something Very Important to Tell Lu Shiran So Qiao Yun just wanted Lu Zhanxing to get a tiny little lesson.

She hadn’t expected…

Thinking of her brother gobbling down food just now, Qiao Yun felt a bit guilty.

She felt sorry for her brother.

Li Hanzhou looked at the obedient-looking person and casually stroked her head, “Your brother is testing me, not really trying to make things difficult for me. If I can’t even handle this little trouble, how could I deserve to be your boyfriend?”

“I see…” Qiao Yun felt slightly relieved.

If Lu Zhanxing really hated Li Hanzhou, then she would have been in a difficult position.

Indeed, the data was right, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflict is the world’s number one difficult issue.

Oh, wait.

It should be brother-in-law and sister-in-law conflict.

Qiao Yun thought of this and paused, feeling like something strange had mixed in?

Li Hanzhou suddenly said, “I’ve met your parents, don’t you want to meet mine? My parents are very eager to see you, of course as the parents of your boyfriend.”

“Sure.” Qiao Yun didn’t see any reason not to meet them.

Li Hanzhou: “How about we set a suitable time to meet?”

Qiao Yun promptly replied, “Hmm, that would be okay.”

Li Hanzhou, seeing Qiao Yun agree, felt even more pleased.

It looked like the days of being treated as a test subject were not far off…

…

Qiao Yun sent Li Hanzhou away and went straight to the kitchen to pour a drink, then headed to Lu Zhanxing’s room door.

Lu Zhanxing had just drunk a large bucket of water, his lips were moist, but his face looked a bit off. Upon seeing Qiao Yun, a smile appeared on his face, but his expression turned slightly strange when he saw the drink in her hands.

Qiao Yun handed him the drink, “Here you go.”

Lu Zhanxing paused, then took it, guiltily lifting his eyelids, “Uh… this is…”

Qiao Yun put on a stern face, “Next time, you can’t treat guests like this.”

Lu Zhanxing made a sound of acknowledgment, his expression pitiful, “Sister, are you blaming me for Li Hanzhou?”

“Not blaming, brother, you did it for me.” Qiao Yun was very sensible.

Lu Zhanxing felt ashamed.

He was just trying to annoy Li Hanzhou.

He hadn’t considered how difficult it would be for his sister standing between them.

He sighed, “I’m sorry, brother was wrong, I won’t do it again.”

Qiao Yun said, “That’s better.”

Lu Zhanxing smiled, thinking, from now on he would target Li Hanzhou when his sister wasn’t looking.

Ha, wanting to be his brother-in-law, maybe in the next life.

…

In the living room.

After dinner, Lu Rui went off to take care of some work matters.

Su Mian, having nothing else to do, decided to tidy up the table herself.

Lu Jingzhi, seeing this, also helped to clean up.

As Su Mian cleaned the dishes, she asked Lu Jingzhi about the odd feeling she had, “Big brother, don’t you feel that Qiaoqiao and Mr. Li’s way of interacting is a bit off? It seems a bit too intimate.”

Lu Jingzhi’s expression stalled for a moment, then he casually asked, “Really?”

“Not really?” Seeing Lu Jingzhi’s unchanged expression, Su Mian began to doubt herself. Was she overthinking it?

Lu Jingzhi decisively answered, “No, they are interacting normally, aren’t they? It’s only natural for my sister to take extra care of a friend she rarely makes.”

Lu Jingzhi’s firm tone made Su Mian feel even more like she was overthinking, “It looks like I was overthinking. It’s really bad of me to suspect Qiaoqiao and Mr. Li of having something fishy going on.”

And she hadn’t even heard of Mr. Li having any romantic history before, so how could he suddenly like Qiaoqiao.

Lu Jingzhi sighed with relief, his tense arm muscles relaxing.

His thoughts aligned with Lu Zhanxing’s.

If it were public knowledge, wouldn’t Li Hanzhou just become even more aggressive? Given the parents’ current fond impression of him, they might just be persuaded completely.

By not making it public, his sister still had a choice.

…

Qiao Yun thought the Qin Family members would be eager to approach Lu Shiran.

But after waiting several days, there was still no movement from the Qin Family.

However, the Qin Family was now dealing with Old Mr. Qin’s illness.

Major international media widely covered the news of Old Mr. Qin’s illness, and the coverage was full of murky truths and fabrications.

Some people within the Qin Family began to stir and seized the opportunity to foster theories about Qin Yuan’s threats.

[Shocking! Qin Group’s Chairman Suffers Sudden Illness: Accident or Foul Play?]

[Qin Group’s Chairperson is Critically Ill, Who Will Take Over Qin Group?]

[Major Overhaul in Qin Family: Can Qin Yuan Successfully Ascend to Power?]

The Qin Family’s situation caused a major stir not only abroad but also domestically.

Qin Yuan had foreseen such events and had rallied several people who supported him to forcefully quash those scheming for power against him.

He swiftly organized a press conference to clarify Old Mr. Qin’s medical condition.

After flying to the U.S., he returned to Qin Group’s headquarters to personally encourage the employees and stabilize the Qin Group.

Even though Qin Yuan had not yet received Old Mr. Qin’s will, he had indirectly taken control of the Qin Family.

Even the fearful Mrs. Qin felt composed enough to go out and socialize.

Pei Ya noted all this and excitedly discussed with Qiao Yun that Qin Yuan had become truly imposing; previously compliant, he was now striking hard.

Qiao Yun had little reaction.

Pei Ya concluded, “The higher Qin Yuan rises now, the harder he’ll fall later.”

Qiao Yun agreed, “That would be for the best.”

…

On another front,

Lu Shiran was cut off by someone.

As the university entrance exams were approaching and his school assignments had increased, he took advantage of a rare holiday to hang out with his friends.

The group chose a quiet bar to sit in, and halfway through, Lu Shiran got up to go to the bathroom.

Then he was cornered in the bathroom.

Lu Shiran, having faced many serious situations before, remained calm, though his eyes were vigilant, “What do you want to do?”

The person blocking him was very nervous, his eyes filled with chaos, as if fearful of someone.

Lu Shiran could feel that his opponent was tensed all over.

He was slightly speechless, “??? Who is blocking whom here?”

The man said, “Young master, you don’t recognize me?”

Lu Shiran looked the man over from head to toe with a puzzled gaze, then something clicked, “You’re from his side?”

“You remember now? My last name is Zhang. You can call me Xiaozhang. Our Zhang Family has served the Qin Family generation after generation, and I am the confidant of the Family Head,” Xiaozhang introduced himself.

Lu Shiran became more vigilant, “What do you want from me?”

Xiaozhang looked around, saw no one else coming, and lowered his voice, “Right now, Young Master Qin Yuan is looking for me. I don’t have much time to explain to you. I came to tell you that the old master didn’t suffer a sudden illness, he was poisoned by Qin Yuan. You must have noticed something when you visited the hospital last time, right?”

Lu Shiran pointed at him, “Was it you who called me?”

Xiaozhang confirmed, “Originally, we should have met then, but I saw the gentleman from the Li Family present, so I didn’t show up.”

Ever since Old Mr. Qin’s incident, he had been hiding and seeking an opportunity to approach Lu Shiran.

He had something very important to tell Lu Shiran.
