Chapter 486 – Happiness Beyond XII

When Zhan An came to Greenville Residence with a thermos cup in her hand, as she knocked on the door, she faintly heard Jiang Ruolan's voice coming from inside.

"I'm not eating anymore. You bought a bunch of nutritious stews. I only have a cold. No way, I have to go get some salted vegetables."

"Eat this. After you eat it, you'll break out in a sweat. Perhaps the fever will be better by tomorrow. You'll have to listen to me." Subsequently, Xian Zihao's gentle and loving voice sounded out.

Zhan An smiled and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened. Xian Zihao looked at his mother and the thermos in her hand. "Mom?"

Jiang Ruolan quickly went to the fridge to get some of the salted vegetables she bought earlier. Hearing a voice coming from in front of the door, she came out from the kitchen and saw Zhan An smiling at her. "Mom, it's too late, why are you here?"

Zhan An coughed for a bit and then muttered with a displeased expression. "Your dad had a little trouble in the military sector today, so he's not in a good mood. He kept wearing a long face when he got home, and I didn't even want to look at his expression. Are Chiahao and An Na already asleep? Since you two have already eaten, I can also give this soup to the children."

Needless to say, both Jiang Ruolan and Xian Zihao could see that Zhan An wanted to spend the night here.

Jiang Ruolan smiled. "They are asleep now. Mom, it's too late. If you don't want to go back, you can stay here."

Without needing Zhan An to say anything, Jiang Ruolan directly gave her mother-in-law a way out. Zhan An immediately beamed with happiness, "Ruolan, you really know my heart and is much more considerate than that spoiled girl!"

As she spoke, she carried a thermos and walked in, saying, "After Guiying gets married, she should be returning to the country and spending some time with us. Isn't that Wei person overseeing Xian Enterprise? Zihao, think of a way to bring Guiying back. She has to take care of her child every day and is busy handling the company's matters at the same time. I haven't seen her for a while."

Jiang Ruolan didn't say anything, she only looked at Xian Zihao.

How can they not understand? Although Xian Guiying did not tell her family about her situation, Zhan An was not stupid. She understood her daughter.

If Xian Guiying lived a good life, she would definitely come home often. After all, Cui Liuxian was no longer in the Xian Family, and there weren't many people in the family she (Xian Guiying) didn't want to interact with.

Xian Zihao signaled to Jiang Ruolan to take the thermos from Zhan An's hand and bring it to the kitchen first.

Jiang Ruolan took it and went into the kitchen, then she heard Zhan An laughing. "Why is the guest bedroom's door open? Did you two know I was coming?"

"Ruolan has a fever and is afraid of infecting the children. She plans to sleep there tonight."

Xian Zihao took a blanket on the couch and told Zhan An to sit first. Then he asked, "You came to my place again. Did dad know that you are here?"

"Why should he know? It's not like you don't know your father's temperament. I had endured it for years and I don't want to see your father's rotten face all day again."

Zhan An took off her jacket disapprovingly and tidying up a few magazines on the tea table, "I can't wait to get out and get myself an apartment right now. I don't have any energy to quarrel with your father all the time. If it wasn't for your grandfather, I would've already gone back to the United States and accompanied Guiying."

Jiang Ruolan poured a glass of juice and said, "Mom, let's drink the juice first."

"Zihao told me you have a fever and going to sleep in the guest bedroom tonight. With me here, where are you going to sleep?" Zhan An turned her head and looked at Jiang Ruolan with a smile, "How about this, I will stay together with Chiahao and An Na tonight. It's been a while since Zihao and you spend time together. I didn't want to disturb your lovey-dovey moment."

Jiang Ruolan's face instantly turned slightly red. "Mom!"

Xian Zihao took the magazine that Zhan An had tidied up and put it aside. When he saw Jiang Ruolan's red face, he smiled. "Chiahao and An Na are too tired from playing during the day, so they won't get up in the middle of the night. Mom can accompany them, but if they wake up, mom can wake us up."

Zhan An nodded as she looked at the dishes on the table, "Has Ruolan not eaten dinner yet? Hurry up and go eat. I'll go and see the children."

She then stood up and walked towards the master bedroom.

As Zhan An entered the bedroom, Jiang Ruolan turned and glanced at Xian Zihao. Xian Zihao was also looking at her.

Jiang Ruolan felt a little dizzy. She couldn't help but give him another glance before going to the kitchen. Afterwards, she ate some of the soup that Zhan An had brought.

Although Zhan An didn't have much talent in cooking, after so many years of learning from Nanny Cheng, the taste was very authentic and not bad.

Zhan An said this soup was made by Nanny Cheng, and she brought it here so late on purpose. She must have made it herself, but fearing that Jiang Ruolan wouldn't dare to drink it, so she used Nanny Cheng's name.

Zhan An had been learning to make soups and dishes for the past years. The real motive behind this was that she wanted to find some opportunities to give Xian Chiahao and Xian An Na some food to eat in order to get close to them.

Jiang Ruolan casually fiddled with the fishbone in her bowl and was in deep thought.

It looked like she needed to find some time to go back and stayed at Xian Residence with Xian Zihao. She couldn't keep herself locked in Greenville Residence like this forever. Xian Chiahao and Xian An Na needed to enjoy the happiness that comes from the Xian Family.

"Zihao, is there any news about Cui Liuxian?"

As the night dragged on, Jiang Ruolan casually asked before returning to her bedroom.

Xian Zihao didn't answer and remained silent.

After a few seconds, he shifted his gaze to her. "Go to sleep. Before going to bed, take another cold medicine."

Seeing that he didn't answer her question, Jiang Ruolan didn't ask any further questions.

Jiang Ruolan knew that the Xian Family loathed Cui Liuxian as a person, and although they could not tolerate her, after all, she had lived in the Xian Family for more than twenty-one years.

A year ago, Jiang Ruolan heard that Cui Liuxian found a very rich man outside, but that man was a drug dealer and was later arrested. She hadn't heard anything about her since.

Jiang Ruolan went back to her bedroom and lay down for a while. When she saw that the lights in the living room were still on, she couldn't help but peek into the living room. She saw Xian Zihao was sitting on the couch with a laptop on the coffee table.

"Zihao, you didn't sleep well last night. Aren't you sleepy?"

Xian Zihao shifted his gaze from the laptop to her and smiled, "Go to sleep first. After taking the medicine, you need to go to bed earlier. That way, your fever will slowly be healed."

Somehow, Jiang Ruolan was a little disappointed. She glanced at him again, then went back to the bedroom.

After a while, the lights were still on in the living room, Jiang Ruolan sat up again, scratched her hair, got out of bed, and walked out. She walked over to the couch and sat down. "Hubby ~"
