Chapter 681 - 188: Crab
"What daughter?"
Over there, Comrade An Bang, who was in the middle of refunding the deposit, was slightly taken aback upon hearing his wife’s voice. He turned his head to see their daughter holding a young man,
"It really is our daughter!"
In an instant, the entire lobby fell silent.
Not only was An Le’s face flushed with embarrassment, but the An Bang couple also turned crimson with awkwardness, wanting to find a hole to hide in even more than An Le did.
Originally holding a ring tightly, planning to help An Le escape in silence, Yan Huan was also interrupted by the sudden turn of events and looked over from An Le’s embrace.
He saw An Le’s mother still not over the shock, hiding behind An Bang for a few seconds before remembering she was the parent, and then leaning out,
"Daughter, you... isn’t this Xiao Huan? How are you both here?"
"Ah, Mom, I... I..."
An Le’s once vacant eyes became as chaotic as a mosquito coil upon her mother’s question, and Yan Huan, who had been so fragrant in her arms, suddenly felt like she was holding a hot potato.
How was she supposed to explain this?
She couldn’t very well say she was craving Xiao Huan’s body and wanted to take him right here, could she?
"Hiss~"
On her shoulder, the white snake flicked its tongue, sensing An Le’s helplessness, it then suggested,
"Why not first bring your parents to a secluded place, and then after using your ability on them, I can perform memory correction..."
"Absolutely not!"
Before the snake finished speaking, An Le firmly rejected the idea.
Little Thumb, about to get annoyed, turned to see An Le’s terrifying momentum, and instantly wilted,
"So what do you suggest? How do you explain this situation?"
"I..."
An Le was stumped by Little Thumb’s question. At that moment, Yan Huan realized the opportunity had come and dazedly spoke up,
"Ugh... I feel so bad..."
An Le’s mother, drawn by Yan Huan’s voice, immediately looked at him and asked,
"What’s wrong with Xiao Huan? Didn’t you go out to play today? Why suddenly..."
Reminded by Yan Huan’s discomfort, An Le came back to her senses and explained,
"Xiao Huan wasn’t feeling well when we came back, so... I thought I’d bring him to the hotel... to rest..."
"Came to the hotel to rest?"
An Le’s father spoke with a frown, and his wife promptly gave him a nudge.
An Bang glanced at his wife, then at the receptionist standing silently eating the metaphorical popcorn, and chose not to speak further.
An Le’s mother, worried, moved towards An Le and Yan Huan, while An Le, nervous about her mother noticing something, quickly deactivated the Superconductor.
Instantly, that muddy, swamp-like joy began to ebb away.
But strangely, the comfort and ease of resting in An Le’s broad embrace didn’t diminish at all.
It felt like lying on a warm cloud, making it difficult to get up.
Could it really be unrelated to the modifier’s effect?!
Had he truly betrayed the flat-chest faction?!
Yan Huan’s mind was filled with shock, yet he couldn’t worry about it now.
Because in his mind, the effect of the memory correction was already surging.
Moreover, the corrected memory was identical to what An Le had said; he felt unwell, asked to rest in the hotel, and An Le brought him there...
This precision of memory correction, no other modifier could compare!
Feeling the exaggerated effects of the memory correction, he could no longer bear not wearing the mask.
The next second, Yan Huan took a deep breath while still in An Le’s embrace, then looked up with an expression of utter natural exhaustion,
"An Le... I told you not to trouble yourself, I can... Auntie?"
"Oh, Xiao Huan..."
Could it be that the daughter was telling the truth?
An Le’s mother secretly began to doubt but said nothing.
"You’re not feeling well, should we go to a hospital? I can call a car..."
"No need, Auntie, I’ll be fine after resting for a while."
"Then..."
As An Le’s mother hesitated to speak, An Bang gave Yan Huan’s condition a puzzled review.
Then looked at their daughter,
"Since Xiao Huan is alright, we’ll leave now, let him rest... Come on, daughter, let’s go home."
"Dad..."
Hearing this, An Le, who hadn’t gotten her way, couldn’t help but glance at Yan Huan.
She wanted to say something more, but her mother had already pulled her hand, took out some cash, and said to the receptionist,
"Please open a room for this child, we’ll pay."
"Okay, ma’am."
After finishing this, An Le’s mother looked apologetically at Yan Huan and said,
"We’ll be off then, Xiao Huan, if anything happens call a doctor immediately..."
"Alright, Auntie."
Yan Huan forced a smile, looking at An Le’s mother,
"I originally wanted to visit you, but An Le said you weren’t at home, and I wasn’t feeling well today either..."
In truth, they were secretly out enjoying time together without their daughter, so reminded by Yan Huan, An Le’s mother became embarrassed,
"No problem, next time, next time..."
"..."
An Le continued to stare at Yan Huan, not just because of the missed opportunity, but perhaps also due to what Yan Huan mentioned earlier.
Words involving Spencer.
Those words stung her, causing a new source of fear to take root.
But having been caught in the act by her parents and with her mother stubbornly pulling her away, she had no other recourse.
Next time...
There will be a chance...
"Sir, can you please provide your ID information?"
Watching An Le being reluctantly dragged away by her mother, the receptionist finally turned to Yan Huan.
Yan Huan hesitated for a moment, then slowly took out his student ID from his pocket.
