Chapter 246: You are too kind
Lanni hung up then exchanged looks with Xiehan and Lin Jian.
"I told you this was dangerous. No one ever listens to me." Lin Jian mumbled.
"Shut up." Lanni was annoyed. Who wouldn’t do dangerous things to prove their sister’s innocence? She was already guilty because she had dragged someone else into the danger. What she needed least right now was someone taunting her about it.
"What should we do now? If he has been caught, it’s too late to run over there and rescue him." Lanni was running mad from worry.
Xiehan didn’t know what to expect either. It was too far-fetched to hope that Li Xiyan would not see him. It was obvious why Li Xiyan went back. She must have realized that something was amiss with Xiehan hacking into her phone and sending a fake message to her bodyguards and henchmen. Even if that was not the case, it would still have alarmed her to come home and find no one guarding the door.
So, they could only hope for An Zichen to slip out of the study through the window if he was close to it.
Lanni was sitting on edge and anticipating a phone call—or anything to assure her that An Zichen had managed to escape. Her phone did ring, but the caller was not An Zichen. She picked it with a slight crease on her forehead. "Mum?"
They had not been talking a lot lately. Why was she calling?
"Lanni, where are you?" Li Yuming’s voice held a hint of worry. She must have been trying to mask it but it was still obvious.
Lanni looked drained. There couldn’t be another problem, right? "I’m at Xiehan’s. Did something happen?"
"No, no." Li Yuming was relieved. " Since you are with Xiehan, it is all good. Stay where you are for now."
