Chapter 35 Mr. Qiao rarely suffers from insomnia

Machine Translation

Back in her room, He Lanjin got ready to take a shower. She removed her blood-stained coat and let it fall to the floor.

She placed a call and found that the big group of men was really after Qiao Hanye. The person who attacked her at the back hall, however, was sent by Lu Zifan. "Lu Zifan sent that man to attack me. What was he trying to do, be the hero and save the damsel in distress?"

He Lanjin did not expect Lu Zifan to use such dirty trick. First, she was no damsel, and even if she were in distress, she could very much take care of herself.

The Lu family was well-known in Jiang City. They were rich and powerful, and the He family could not compare to them. Why had Lu Zifan repeatedly try to make a move on her? He even sacrificed his man and made him pretend to be with He Ruoxue.

Could the He family have something that he wanted?

"How are you?" Qin Nan asked anxiously. "Are you hurt?"

Qin Nan's voice brought He Lanjin back to earth. She remembered that Qin Nan was still on the phone. She said, "No, he can't hurt me."

"Lu Zifan is really detestable. Why don't I find a few people to cripple him?" Qin Nan suggested. He Lanjin could not help but smile. She stretched and climbed onto the bed, crawled under the sheets and said, "Don't interfere with my matters. I can handle it."

He Lanjin heard a woman's voice on the line. Qin Nan was obviously flirting, yet again. "All right, I'm going to bed now," He Lanjin said before hanging up.

Qin Nan was the third young master of the Qin family and her best friend. The two of them met through online gaming. He could not believe how He Lanjin always won against him. One day, he knocked on her door to seek justice. After she beat him the first time, he followed her around, calling her "Ah Jin." After two more rounds, they became good friends.

It was very late. Qiao Hanye stood alone on the balcony, unable to sleep.

"Master, it's time to sleep," Han Beicheng said as he came forward with a cup of coffee.

Han Beicheng draped a small blanket over Qiao Hanye's shoulders. It was snowing again, as if the heavens were working to cover up tonight's bloodshed. A snowy night was the best time to kill.

Han Beicheng could not help but break the silence."Master, since you don't want Miss He to get involved, why don't you just return the phone to her?"

He did not know why Qiao Hanye took the phone and lured He Lanjin. He even went to the extent of hiring someone to seduce Qin Nan, take Qin Nan's phone and send He Lanjin the address to Jing Garden. As if these were not enough, Qia Hanye also ordered the secret guards to disable the infrared sensors to allow her to enter the house without trouble.

Wasn't everything because of a broken phone? Couldn't he just give it back?

As if he did not hear anything, Qiao Hanye squeezed Han Beicheng by the upper arms and moved him to the side before turning around and returning to his room. Han Beicheng stood in the balcony, alone with his thoughts.

He only came here to remind Qiao Hanye that it was time to sleep. Han Beicheng did not expect that he would suffer from insomnia once his master had gone to bed. F*ck, was this the result of talking too much? Was this how Qiao Hanye would get back at him?

Qiao Hanye had gone to bed, but he was still unable to sleep. He looked at the cut on his palm and gently tightened his grip.

"Who are you, He Lanjin?" Qiao Hanye said, giving voice to his thoughts. She was a righteous and arrogant woman who was not afraid of death. She was much more interesting compared to the women who wanted to curry favor with the Qiao family and the women who would readily take off their clothes and climb into his bed.

It was a cold winter night, but He Lanjin slept soundly until dawn.

The night passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was morning again.

Because it snowed last night, everything looked gray in the early morning. He Lanjin lay in bed for a long time before she got up to check her phone.

"F*ck your shameless Bestie. I want to kill her." It was Qin Nan, who attached a small video to his message.

He Lanjin opened the video and immediately saw He Ruoxue's bloodshot eyes. "Hello, everyone. I'm He Lanjin's good bestie! Two days ago, we were in the news. I want to come forward and clarify that there was a misunderstanding between me and Lu Zifan. This matter has already hurt He Lanjin a lot, and I don't want the rumors to hurt her even further. If you have any issues, come to me. Even if the sky falls, I'll protect her. I hope this incident ends here. I want to put a stop to everything."

The incident had been covered up by the He and Lu families. The heat had dissipated and people were starting to forget. However, He Ruoxue's video made people start talking about the incident again.

Ps: Haha, is the second female lead's brain stuck in the door If she asks for a recommendation ticket, I'll torture her.
