“Are you at Byron’s place now? How are you still in the mood to meet and catch up with your friend? Hurry and come back home!” An Xiaoning exclaimed.
“I only bumped into Byron coincidentally. It’s Xiao Chenyang who had to come here to collect something that he had ordered. The collection will only be available in two days. I’ll be back in another two days.”
Now that she knew that he would be returning soon, a mere two-day wait sounded way too long!
“Come home first. It’s not like he can’t find his way back.”
Xiao Chenyang snatched the mobile phone away and said, “Hua Jin, how are you going to repay me?”
An Xiaoning knew what he was referring to. Indeed, she had him to thank for rescuing Jin Qingyan from Xihou Jiaping.
“Tell me what you would like in return.”
“Bring Erlan to me personally. I can’t be bothered to make another trip there and back here again.”
“What do you want to do with her?”
“You don’t have to know. All you have to do is bring her to me.”
“Alright,” she agreed, knowing that he definitely wouldn’t hurt Fang Erlan.
Since she owed him such a huge favor, she would definitely fulfill his requests, so long as they were within her means.
After ending the call, An Xiaoning leaped up from the couch and exclaimed in joy, “Ahhhhh!”
Noticing that she had gone hysterical, Fan Shixin whipped out a hundred-dollar note from his wallet and handed it to her. “Young Madam, you may keep the change. It’s a reward for you!”
An Xiaoning put on her shoes and waved him goodbye. “Use the money to buy some candy for your buddies and yourself. I’m going to go look for your Young Sir now. Stay home to watch the door.”
“But I’m not a dog...”
“You’re not a dog, but you’re a man’s best friend.”
“No, I refuse. Objection!”
“Your objection is invalid.”
An Xiaoning immediately called Fang Erlan and asked, “Erlan, where are you now?”
“I’m working out at the gym. Filming is about to begin soon so I have to get in shape.”
“Stop working out. Wash up and get dressed. Bring a set of clothes along, we’re going overseas.”
“Overseas? Sis Xiaoning, what are we going overseas for?” she asked.
“I’ll tell you when you’re here. Hurry up.”
“Okay.”
After ending the call, An Xiaoning rushed upstairs to take a shower before running to the dressing room. She swiftly opened the closet and picked out a white jumpsuit that exposed her back. The dress was held together by two white straps.
She also brought another dress along. She then put on some makeup, a sun hat, and a pair of shades before making her way downstairs.
Fang Erlan had yet to arrive when she got downstairs. An Xiaoning prompted Fan Shixin to get the private jet ready as soon as possible. Noticing how eager and impatient she was, Fan Shixin said in amusement, “Young Madam, I’ve already called the pilot when you were upstairs. We’re waiting now.”
“What are you smiling for?”
“Oh, it’s nothing.”
“What is it?”
“My... lips cramped up. I’m not smiling.”
“I’ll board the plane first. Bring Erlan to the cabin when she arrives later.”
“Alright, Young Madam. Hurry along.”
Just as An Xiaoning was about to leave, she bumped into Long Tianze and Mei Yangyang.
“Sis-in-law, where are you rushing off to?”
“I’m going to board a flight. Are you here to see me?”
“Yes, we’ll go with you.”
“Do you know why I’m going?”
“Yes. That fool gave me a call. I heard that he’s in Y Nation. Well, it so happens that Yangyang is bored out of her wits staying at home. I’ll take her out for a few days to unwind and relax.”
“Oh wow, you’re such a good husband. Yangyang is really fortunate to have married you,” An Xiaoning praised.
Long Tianze answered smugly, “You don’t have to envy Yangyang for having such a great husband like me. You have one yourself.”
“Look how conceited you’re getting.”
“Hehe, let’s go. I’ve brought my luggage too.”
An Xiaoning shifted her gaze onto the small suitcase in his hand and said, “Your suitcase is so tiny. Aren’t you going to stay there for a few more days?”
“We’ll come back together with you guys.”
“Sure, let’s set off.”
“Let’s go.”
Mei Yangyang pinched him and chided, “Do you know how to speak properly? If you don’t, just shut your trap. You’ve got an anus for a mouth. You’re making it sound like we’re on our way to death.”
“How could you say that about your husband? Are you saying that you’re kissing my anus every day?” As soon as he finished speaking, he shrieked in pain again in a shrill voice.
An Xiaoning ignored them and got inside the car gleefully. She was beyond excited to meet her man.
The thought of being able to see him very soon sent her... over the moon!
After they’d been waiting for her for more than ten minutes in the plane, Fang Erlan finally showed up.
She was dressed in a white short-sleeved blouse and shorts. She carried a bag in her hand and sat down beside An Xiaoning. “Sis Yangyang, Brother-in-law.”
Pointing at the bag in her hands, An Xiaoning said, “Stow that away in the overhead bin.”
“Alright.” She stood up and did as instructed before sitting down again. “Sis Xiaoning, I don’t have a passport, I can’t go overseas.”
“It’s alright, but you must get your passport registered once we’re back. You’ll need it when you go abroad for shoots or filming in the future.”
Fang Erlan expressed assent and asked, “Sis, just where are we going?”
“Y Nation.”
“What are we doing there?”
An Xiaoning turned to look at her solemnly and said, “Um, Erlan, do you remember the one time that I called you at night and told you to call Xiao Chenyang and get him to meet me?”
“Yes.”
“That night, Xiao Chenyang saved Qingyan and he deserves credit for it. I owe him a huge favor. He and Qingyan are both in Y Nation now. Xiao Chenyang wants me to bring you there so that he won’t have to waste time traveling here and there.”
“You’re taking me to Y Nation... why does he want me to go there?” Fang Erlan asked in puzzlement.
“I’m not too sure either, but he definitely wouldn’t harm you. Don’t worry.” An Xiaoning looked at her and said, “Erlan, he’s a pretty good catch.”
“The point is, I don’t fancy him.” Fang Erlan continued softly, “A few days ago, Yan Ge asked me to be his girlfriend...”
“How did you answer him?”
“I... rejected him.” Fang Erlan began to breathe unsteadily at the thought of Yan Ge. “Ever since then, he stopped talking to me much. If it weren’t for Xiao Chenyang, how could I have rejected Yan Ge? Xiao Chenyang was the one who forced me to make such a decision. I’ll never fancy Xiao Chenyang. What’s the point of him compelling me?”
Mei Yangyang interjected, “Erlan, why don’t you have a proper talk with Xiao Chenyang...”
“I’ve tried that, but we can’t communicate at all. He even threatened me. What’s the point of living if I can’t even be with the person I adore?”
An Xiaoning placed a hand on her shoulder and said, “Although timing does matter when it comes to love, how are you so sure that Yan Ge was the one who came first?”
“Sis Xiaoning, Yan Ge is my type. I don’t like men like Xiao Chenyang. He’s too domineering and overbearing. I can’t handle him.”
“Can you handle and control Yan Ge, then?”
“I... I can’t either,” she answered, feeling at a loss.
