Chapter 4: Hey Handsome, I'm Leaving. If We Meet Again, I'll Return the Favor
Nan Yan slept through the night and woke up in the morning.
In her dream, she experienced the previous owner's experiences as if watching a movie from a divine perspective.
Knowing about the past, she felt only pity for the original owner.
Being adopted into a family that favored boys over girls, she never received any care in that household.
From a young age, she had to do chores and housework, spending her days in scolding.
Even attending school was only made possible when the village committee found her and allowed her to go to school.
However, she dropped out after completing junior high.
Later, she was found by her biological family, hoping to receive familial love.
She desperately tried to integrate into their home but was ultimately treated as a boarding outsider.
The affection she longed for remained elusive until her death...
Nan Yan felt a faint bitterness and unwillingness in her heart, and her eyes darkened.
The original owner perhaps desired recognition from her family. But why would she go back to such a heartless family?
She still had her own revenge to pursue and couldn't stay here indefinitely.
Therefore, she would expose the false heiress's hypocrisy and let the An family see her true face. It would be fine if she restored the original owner's innocence.
Yesterday, the gentleman told her to leave in the morning by herself.
Nan Yan didn't linger and wrote a few lines on a piece of paper, leaving it on the tea table before quietly departing.
Shortly after she left, a silver-haired, luxuriously dressed old lady, accompanied by Wu Yue, came to the room where Nan Yan had left.
Old Madam Qin raised her chin, "Knock on the door, I want to see my future daughter-in-law!" Wu Yue quickly knocked on the door.
Qin Lu, awakened by the noise, changed out of his robe and came out of the bedroom.
There was no sign of the little girl in the living room.
The door to the guest room was open, and the bedding inside was neatly folded.
It seemed that she had already left.
There was a piece of paper pressed on the tea table.
He walked over and picked it up. His first impression was not of the content but of the handwriting.
The handwriting was very beautiful, elegant and lively.
Judging from the handwriting, the writer should have a carefree and unconstrained character, unbound by rules.
[Hey Handsome, I'm leaving. If we meet again, I'll definitely return the favor.]
Qin Lu folded the paper and threw it into the trash can.
It was unlikely that they would meet again.
He didn't expect any repayment from her either.
Wu Yue, not daring to rush Qin Lu, knocked on the door every once in a while.
Just as he was about to knock again, the door suddenly opened.
Old Madam Qin pushed Qin Lu away and rushed in, "Where's my future daughter-in-law? Where did you hide her?"
Qin Lu let her find by herself and glanced at Wu Yue, "You informed the old lady?"
"Master, it was Old Madam's repeated orders, and I..."
Qin Lu's tone turned icy, "It seems you don't know who your master is."
Wu Yue felt a chill down his spine and he lowered his head, saying, "Master, I was wrong!" 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝗰𝗼𝐦
Looking at the subordinate who had been with him for over ten years, Qin Lu's eyes showed no warmth. "If there's another time, go to the finance department and collect your salary yourself."
"Master, I won't dare anymore!"
Wu Yue almost kneeled in front of Qin Lu.
But in the future, he absolutely, absolutely couldn't do anything behind the young master's back.
He knew that the young master would do what he said.
"Qin Lu, where did you hide my future daughter-in-law?"
Old Madam Qin circled the room but couldn't find anyone. She came over in anger and questioned him.
"She left," Qin Lu calmly said.
Old Madam Qin's expression changed, "Why did you let her leave? Let Grandma take a look!"
Qin Lu leisurely replied, "I was afraid she would be frightened by you."
Before Old Madam Qin could retort, Qin Lu continued, "Besides, I haven't settled things with her yet. Once I do, I'll bring her back for you to see."
"So, Grandma, stop arranging those blind dates. If the little girl gets angry and ignores me, you won't have a daughter-in-law anymore."
Using that little girl as a shield is not bad.
She's not entirely useless.
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Qin immediately said, "Alright, alright. You quickly pursue her and bring her back for Grandma to see. Grandma guarantees that I won't scare the young girl!"
Now that her grandson showed interest in a girl, she didn't want to bother with these matters anymore.
Before, she had worried that her eldest grandson was already twenty-five years old and didn't even have a woman by his side, fearing that he had no interest in women.
As long as he was willing to date, she would definitely not interfere.
Qin Lu casually pressed his hand on Old Madam Qin's shoulder and coaxed, "Grandma, just relax at home and wait. I will handle your future daughter-in-law as soon as possible."
"Good, good." Grandma nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that he had appeased Grandma, Qin Lu glanced at the person beside him and said, "Wu Yue, take Grandma back."
"Yes, Young Master."
Wu Yue quickly stepped forward to support Old Madam Qin and said, "Madam Qin, let me take you back to the capital."
Old Madam Qin waved her hand. "I just arrived and planned to stay here for a few days. I won't leave yet."
"Ah Lv, arrange a room for Grandma. Grandma will stay until I'm done playing."
She's not going to wait at home!
There was no way she would go back!
Qin Lu couldn't do anything about her. He couldn't forcibly send her back. He rubbed his temples with his fingers and gave instructions, "Wu Yue, go and handle it."

Nan Yan came out of the hotel and looked at the cars coming and going outside when she suddenly remembered.
She had no money.
Not only did she have no money, but her phone was also lost during the escape.
She wanted to go back to the An family, but she couldn't walk all the way there.
While Nan Yan was considering how to get back, a tall figure stopped in front of her.
"Why are you here?"
An Xiran frowned and looked at his supposed younger sister with no warmth in his tone.
Nan Yan recognized him when she saw his signature dyed silver-gray short hair.
He was the fourth brother of the original owner, a well-known competitive athlete.
He was also a game streamer with millions of fans and appearance fees starting at a million.
Nan Yan casually looked up at him, her finger twirling her long hair hanging on her shoulder, her expression indifferent. "I stayed here for one night. Are you going back? If you're going back, take me with you."
An Xiran looked at Nan Yan's face, which was not covered in haphazard makeup, and had a momentary daze.
So, without makeup, she was still quite pretty.
Then, he realized belatedly that whenever Nan Yan saw him before, she always had a timid and hesitant look, wanting to approach but not daring to.
Today, she actually dared to meet his gaze and speak to him without her voice trembling.
Seeing Nan Yan like this, he surprisingly didn't feel any annoyance.
But when he heard her say that she had stayed here overnight...
An Xiran's face darkened slightly, and he reprimanded, "As a young girl, why are you staying out all night? What if something happens to you?"
"Come home with me."
Nan Yan maintained her indifferent expression, showing no change, and responded only after hearing the last sentence, "Yes."

Back at the An family, An Xiran stopped the car.
Nan Yan didn't say much to him and immediately unbuckled her seatbelt and got out.
An Xiran frowned again.
When did she learn to be so impolite?
Can't even say a word?
This unsociable personality was really hard to like.
Nan Yan didn't walk fast.
After a night of rest, her injuries had improved somewhat, but there was still some pain.
Walking slowly back to the villa, as soon as she entered, she heard an angry voice ringing out:
"Nan Yan, where did you go yesterday?"
