Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 632: The Zhan Family’s Son Comes of Age
"Xia Luo, what’s going on?"
Zhan Yunxiao was surprised yet relieved that Xia Luo was fine. He slowly walked over and gently shook Xia Luo awake.
Xia Luo opened her eyes and saw him, immediately revealing a happy smile, "You really came? What you said was true, you really treat me well."
"So, what exactly happened?" Zhan Yunxiao asked again.
Xia Luo said, "Nothing, I just wanted to call you to see if you’d come. There was a bug earlier, but I already squished it."
Zhan Yunxiao: "..."
"Are you mad?"
Seeing Zhan Yunxiao’s face darken, Xia Luo quickly asked.
Zhan Yunxiao said, "You think after teasing me like this, I wouldn’t be mad?"
"So you are mad?" Xia Luo pouted.
Zhan Yunxiao looked into her dark eyes, thinking of the hardships she endured over the years that might be linked to his parents, he sighed again.
"I’m not mad, but don’t scare me like this again, I worry about you."
Xia Luo looked at him in shock.
"What is it now?" Zhan Yunxiao asked, seeing her expression.
"Nothing, just strange hearing you say you worry about me," Xia Luo said honestly.
Zhan Yunxiao chuckled lightly.
Recalling her mischievous nature as a child, he never expected her to become so naïve as an adult.
"Alright, get some sleep. Since there’s nothing wrong, I’ll take my leave," Zhan Yunxiao said.
Xia Luo nodded, but soon asked, "Can Xia Tian and I go out tomorrow? We don’t want to stay cooped up in the house, it’s stifling."
"Not for now, I still don’t know who caught you," Zhan Yunxiao said.
Xia Luo mumbled, "Who else? Surely the ones I’ve offended. They called me, even tried to get me to trap you, but I refused. After all, you’ve been pretty good to me, even when I got caught, you didn’t mistreat me. How could I repeatedly do things to let you down? So they sent people to catch me."
"They caught you? It wasn’t..."
"Wasn’t what?" Xia Luo blinked and asked.
"Nothing, don’t worry, I’ll investigate soon and make sure these people dismiss any thoughts of harming you," Zhan Yunxiao said.
Xia Luo nodded.
She lay back down and pulled up her quilt, "Then I’ll sleep. You handle it quickly; I want to go out and play."
"Alright."
Zhan Yunxiao smiled.
Watching her lie down obediently to sleep, innocent and defenseless, he thought of their childhood.
He couldn’t help but raise his hand, wanting to touch her face.
But as he raised it, he remembered she had grown up.
And he was no longer the young child he once was.
They both grew up, became adults, and shouldn’t be so intimate.
"Investigate who is after Xia Luo; be cautious, don’t let the other party know you’re investigating them."
Zhan Yunxiao called Yan Yu over and asked him to investigate the matter.
"Why not let the other party know? If they know Miss Xia has your protection, they surely won’t dare to hurt her again." Yan Yu didn’t understand.
"Just do what I told you, no more nonsense," Zhan Yunxiao scolded displeased.
Actually, he feared the other party might be related to his parents. If they knew he was protecting Xia Luo, they might not be able to shield her.
If it weren’t his parents, then there was nothing to fear.
But since everything was still unclear, he couldn’t take risks.
"Alright, I’ll investigate right away," Yan Yu agreed.
Very soon, he had the information.
It wasn’t difficult to find out, as there was surveillance footage and the two people following Xia Luo often operated in public.
"Just two thugs, working for money. The person who paid them is the same guy who had Miss Xia take your photo last time. That guy, the former project manager you fired, held a grudge and did something this despicable," Yan Yu reported his findings to Zhan Yunxiao.
Zhan Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, it wasn’t his parents.
It seemed his parents still didn’t know about Xia Luo.
"I don’t want to see this person in Jiangcheng anymore," Zhan Yunxiao said coldly.
Yan Yu nodded, chuckling sinisterly, "Rest assured, Mr. Zhan, I will handle it cleanly."
Zhan Yunxiao rolled his eyes.
It was only a matter of driving someone out of Jiangcheng, yet he acted as if he were planning a murder.
Too lazy to deal with him, as Xia Luo called him again.
"What’s up?"
"Can I go out now?" Xia Luo asked.
Zhan Yunxiao chuckled, "Of course, but do you have any money?"
"No."
"Wait, I’ll bring you some money and take you out shopping," Zhan Yunxiao said.
Yan Yu, listening nearby, was dumbfounded.
Was this really their Mr. Zhan?
The usually cold and stern Mr. Zhan, since when did he speak so gently?
And, he wasn’t seeing things, right!
He smiled, he actually smiled?
Their Mr. Zhan actually smiled?
"It’s terrifying, I saw the boss smile."
Yan Yu hurriedly took out his phone and sent a message in the work group chat.
Instantly, the chat exploded.
"Special Assistant Yan, are you blind? How could the boss smile? You must be mistaken."
"Assistant Yan, did you not sleep well last night? Talking nonsense like you’re dreaming in broad daylight?"
"Yeah, the boss smiles? That’s as likely as the sun rising in the west, no way, absolutely no way."
Yan Yu, looking at everyone dismissing his words in the group chat, was infuriated.
He clearly saw the boss smile, why wouldn’t anyone believe him?
It’s too much!
"Can we really sit in such a luxurious car?"
Zhan Yunxiao drove over to pick up Xia Luo and Xia Tian.
The two came out and looked at Zhan Yunxiao’s luxury car, revealing expressions of astonishment.
However, they hesitated to sit in it, fearing they’d dirty it.
"It’s fine, get in, the car is for people to sit in. If it gets dirty, I’ll clean it," Zhan Yunxiao said generously.
Xia Luo and Xia Tian glanced at each other and shyly got in.
However, Xia Tian obediently sat in the back and wouldn’t let Xia Luo join him, insisting she sit in the front passenger seat.
"Why can’t I sit in the back?" Xia Luo grumbled.
Zhan Yunxiao chuckled, surprised that Xia Tian, a child, was so thoughtful.
"You sit in the front so we can chat," Zhan Yunxiao said.
Xia Luo had to relent and obediently sat in the front.
"From now on, whatever you ask, I will answer truthfully. You’re the first person to treat me so well. In my whole life, I haven’t met anyone as good as you," Xia Luo said earnestly.
Zhan Yunxiao replied, "You’re still young, how many have you met? How do you know I’m treating you well? In the future, you should learn to be more shrewd like Xia Tian."
"Are you saying you’re not genuinely good to me and have some ulterior motive?" Xia Luo leaned in closer and asked.
Her sudden approach startled Zhan Yunxiao.
However, having been mature and steady since childhood, despite this, he continued to drive calmly.
