Abandoned daughter reborn, legitimate son is resourceful

"Where have you been?"

Yan Qiu held Nan Chenliang's hand, and as soon as they stepped into the gate of Xiao Mansion, they saw Yan Daoxue standing with his hands behind his back, staring at the two of them with a sullen face.

Although Nan Chenliang's mind was not always clear, he could still recognize some familiar faces.

Seeing Yan Daoxue at this moment, a brilliant smile immediately bloomed on his innocent little face: "Brother Yan."

Yan Daoxue's originally tense expression softened instantly after seeing Nan Chenliang, and his eyes were full of doting.

It turned out that he had just returned from checking the accounts at the cloth shop, and a servant beside him was holding a thick account book tightly in his arms.

Since Nan Jinming was away for some business, the entire Yuecheng industry was temporarily handed over to Yan Daoxue, so these complicated and trivial matters naturally fell on him.

He had to take care of business matters and keep an eye on Nan Chenliang's condition. Even a smart and capable person like Yan Daoxue felt quite stressed for a while.

Hearing Yan Qiu's question, Nan Chenliang blinked his big, lively eyes and replied, "My sister took me to buy clothes."

The excitement and joy could not be concealed in his words.

Yan Runan happened to walk out of the Xiao Mansion at this time. He just went to the toilet, and in the blink of an eye, Nan Chenliang disappeared.

He glared at Yan Qiu who was standing beside him and asked, "So you took him away? Why didn't you even say hello?"

Yan Qiu looked embarrassed, quickly looked away, and hesitantly explained: "I... I just wanted to take him out to play and buy him some clothes."

"What about the clothes?"

There was obviously some dissatisfaction and doubt in Yan Runan's tone. After all, he was already in a bad mood at the moment, and Yan Qiu bumped into him.

How could Yan Qiu dare to tell him what happened between her and Pei Zhaoli.

So, Yan Runan just stared at Yan Qiu in front of him with cold eyes.

Now, Yan Daoxue is in charge of all the affairs of the mansion, and it is no longer a secret that Yan Qiu has a secret crush on Nan Chenliang...

Yan Qiu lowered his head and said nothing, feeling secretly annoyed.

She understood that she was indeed inconsiderate this time and took Nan Chenliang out without informing him in advance.

Seeing her like this, Yan Runan didn't know what to say.

After all, Yan Qiu had good intentions, and Nan Chenliang also looked very happy.

"Okay, Runan, since Aliang is safe and sound, let's forget about this matter." Yan Daoxue spoke to break the deadlock.

Yan Qiu looked at Yan Daoxue with gratitude, and at the same time gave Yan Runan an apologetic look.

"If you take Chen Liang out again in the future, remember to let me know in advance." Yan Runan's tone softened a little.

"I see. Thank you." Yan Qiu responded quickly.

Yan Daoxue nodded, touched Nan Chenliang's head, turned around and went back to his room to deal with business.

Yan Qiu looked at their departing backs, feeling mixed emotions.

Yan Qiu sighed softly. She knew that she was a little impulsive this time.

She turned to look at Nan Chenliang, only to see him looking around with curiosity.

"Chenliang, let's go back too." Yan Qiu took Nan Chenliang's hand and walked towards his room.

On the way, Yan Qiu met a few servants, who looked at Yan Qiu with strange eyes.

Yan Qiu knew in her heart that the news that she had taken Nan Chenliang out secretly had probably spread throughout the Xiao Mansion.

Back in the room, Yan Qiu asked Nan Chenliang to sit down, then squatted in front of him and looked at him seriously.

"Chenliang, what I did today was wrong. I won't do that again. Will you blame me?" Yan Qiu's voice was very gentle.

Nan Chenliang shook his head and smiled sweetly.

"I like hanging out with my sister." His eyes were as clear as water, which made Yan Qiu's heart move.

Yan Qiu smiled and touched his head.

"Well, I like being with you, too. But I'll definitely tell everyone next time, okay?"

Hearing this, Nan Chenliang nodded vigorously and a bright smile appeared on his face.

Yan Qiu looked at his cute appearance and her mood became cheerful.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The clarity in Nan Chenliang's eyes disappeared in an instant, replaced by endless resentment.

He stared at Yan Qiu intently, his eyes seemed to want to eat her alive.

Then, without any warning, Nan Chenliang suddenly pushed Yan Qiu away and let out a deafening roar: "You are a bad guy! Stay away from me, don't touch me!"

It all happened so suddenly that Yan Qiu had no time to react.

She lost her balance and involuntarily took several steps back before she could barely keep her footing.

Yan Qiu looked at Nan Chenliang in astonishment, unable to believe what he saw.

"Chenliang, what's wrong with you? I'm not a bad person. I just took you out to play."

She spoke softly while trying to get closer to Nan Chenliang again, but was met with even more fierce resistance from the other party.

"Go away! You lied to me! You are a bad person!"

Nan Chenliang became more and more excited, his little face turned red, and his eyes were filled with undisguised hostility.

At this moment, he was like an enraged little beast, exuding a dangerous aura.

Yan Qiu's heart was full of doubts and confusion. She really couldn't understand why Nan Chenliang treated her like this.

Could it be that he was unhappy because I took him out without permission?

But just now I clearly saw that he was full of joy, and he said that he was happy to play with me...

Yan Qiu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

She stepped back cautiously, trying to give Nan Chenliang some breathing room.

"Chenliang, don't get excited. Sister will never hurt you in the slightest." Yan Qiu said gently and comfortingly.

However, Nan Chenliang still stared at her sharply, with no intention of relaxing.

Yan Qiu couldn't help but frown slightly, secretly thinking about how to deal with the situation.

After some thought, she decided to ask Yan Daoxue for the truth. Perhaps he could know the reason for Nan Chenliang's sudden change.

In fact, there was no need for Yan Qiu to go in person to look for someone. The noise in the room had already alarmed the servants, and they quickly reported the matter to Yan Runan.

When Yan Runan hurried over, she was shocked by the scene before her.

Nan Chenliang held the broken porcelain pieces in his hand, and the sharp edge was pressing against Yan Qiu's throat!

Yan Qiu's face was pale, his hands tightly grasped the fatal porcelain piece, while the other hand firmly clamped Nan Chenliang's waist.

“That’s crazy!”

Yan Runan cursed angrily, took a step forward without hesitation, and used all his strength to strike Nan Chenliang hard on the back of his head.

With a muffled groan, Nan Chenliang suddenly lost consciousness and fell limply to the ground.

Seeing this, Yan Qiu's tense nerves finally relaxed, and the porcelain piece in his hand slid to the ground with a crisp sound.

Her legs went weak and she almost fell, but fortunately Yan Runan was quick to catch her.

“Are you okay?”

Yan Runan asked with concern, his eyes sweeping over the wound on Yan Qiu's hand cut by the porcelain shards, and a trace of pity welled up in his heart.

Yan Qiu shook his head, trying to calm his agitated emotions.

She took a deep breath and looked at Yan Runan gratefully: "Thank you, if you hadn't arrived in time..."

"You're welcome. Just take care of the wound first."

Yan Runan interrupted Yan Qiu, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and asked Yan Qiu to bandage the wound on his hand.

Looking at the unconscious Nan Chenliang, Yan Runan frowned, thinking secretly about what to do next...
