The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife-Chapter 2081 - Care (1)
Chapter 2081: Care (1)
The car stopped steadily. Before Leng Xinran could react, Lan Xiu had already stepped over and opened the car door for her—
“Hurry up and get in the car.”
Leng Xinran shivered, and she quickly got into the car.
“Why are you all drenched? Don’t you know to hide from the rain immediately?”
When Lan Xiu saw Leng Xinran shivering from all the cold and drenched, he immediately frowned. He quickly turned up the temperature in the car and handed her his jacket.
Leng Xinran took it and put it on her shoulders. “I forgot about how the weather’s been like these few days. The weather in the afternoon was pretty good, but in the blink of an eye, it was raining cats and dogs.”
“The weather changes so easily at this time. You have to be careful. You are soaked. It will be very congested if you go back to your place now. We’re not far from where I live, should we just go there?”
Lan Xiu glanced at her and asked.
Leng Xinran was silent for a moment. She raised her hand to look at the time on her hand. She knew that the old city district was definitely congested at this time. The city planning there was done earlier, the roads there were narrower. Moreover, the houses were more densely packed. If there was a traffic jam, it was likely that the traffic jam would last for one to two hours. Therefore, Leng Xinran usually took the subway directly instead of rushing to the traffic jam.
Moreover, the rain was so heavy, with lightning and thunder.
“Okay.”
Leng Xin then replied indifferently.
After getting her permission, Lan Xiu replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, it’s also very quiet over there.”
As he said that, he also increased the speed of the car.
Lan Xiu’s villa was not very far from here. They did not get caught up with the traffic jam. It was only a 20-minute drive from here.
There were not many people in the villa, and Lan Xiu preferred the quiet, so the house only hired a part-time worker. There was also an aunt who usually cooked for them. The housekeeper was probably asleep by now.
“Come in.”
Lan Xiu turned on the light at the door, and the house suddenly lit up.
Leng Xinran also walked in.
“Go upstairs and take a shower first. Change your clothes so you don’t catch a cold.”
As Lan Xiu spoke, he gestured for her to follow him upstairs.
“Is it just you alone here?”
The entire villa was very big and looked very quiet. However, as soon as she asked this question, Leng Xinran felt that she had asked too many unnecessary questions. She knew that he seemed to be alone.
As Lan Xiu listened, he turned to look at her and then replied, “Yes, it’s just me. When my older brother Lan Qi was still around, we lived at Da Ming Bay. He had always liked the environment there and said that it was quite lively. Once he was gone and I was alone, I naturally…”
Lan Xiu did not continue. He stopped what he was about to say and continued walking up.
Leng Xinran was silent for a moment. She had heard some basic information about Lan Xiu from her father, Leng Mingyi, so she knew of his older brother Lan Qi.
After that, she did not ask any more questions and followed him upstairs.
Lan Xiu brought her directly to the guest room.
“I’ve already asked my secretary to prepare some clothes for you. It might take some time. You’re drenched. Take a shower and change your clothes first. These are my clothes, you… you can make do with them.”
Leng Xinran was still wearing a grayish-black long dress and trousers. She removed her coat and the clothes that were wet from the rain stuck tightly to her skin. At this moment, she could clearly see the exquisite and graceful figure on her body. As Lan Xiu spoke, he looked away a little embarrassedly and handed the black shirt in his hand to her.
Leng Xinran also subconsciously tugged at the clothes on her body and reached out to take it.
“Thank you.”
“Mmm, everything is prepared in the bathroom. If you need anything, call for me. I’ll be right next door.”
Lan Xiu’s tone was very gentle.
Leng Xinran nodded. “Okay, thank you. You should go back and wash up too. It’s getting late. Rest early. The rain is still very heavy outside. I reckon it won’t stop until tomorrow.”
“Alright,” Lan Xiu replied and then turned around to leave.
After returning to his room, Lan Xiu took a shower too. When he came out of the bathroom, he realized that he was a little hungry. The servants should have prepared dinner or supper in the kitchen downstairs, so he decided to go downstairs and take a look, he also cooked a bowl of ginger soup for Leng Xinran.
Before he could think too much, the Deputy Managing Editor of the company called. It was an emergency plan, and there were some problems with the data.
“President Lan, I feel that the data is a little strange, but I have checked it several times and still haven’t found the problem. I want you to take a look for yourself.”
The man on the other end of the line said with confusion.
“Send the document to me now. I’ll take a look. I’ll give it to you later. It won’t affect the signing of the contract tomorrow,” Lan Xiu replied and walked to his study.
“Okay, okay! I’ll send them to you right away. Thank you for your hard work, President Lan!”
“Also, ask the Commerce Department to send me the original data immediately,” Lan Xiu replied and then hung up the phone. He sat in the chair in front of his desk, put the towel in his hand to the side, and turned on the computer on the desk.
…
Meanwhile, Leng Xinran in the next room endured the cold all over her body. After taking a hot bath, she felt a little better. She washed her clothes and used a hair dryer to dry her hair and the clothes inside. The wet clothes outside, she could only put them aside for now.
After washing her clothes, she felt a little tired and her head was dizzy. Thinking that she was too tired these few days, she did not care about anything and went straight to bed to rest.
She was originally a person who slept light and was particular about her bed, but for some reason, she felt very sleepy as soon as she fell otno the bed today. After struggling for a while, she fell asleep too.
He did not know how much time had passed. When Lan Xiu sent the documents to Vice President Xu, it was already a long time ago. He subconsciously looked at the lower right corner of the screen and realized that it was almost one in the morning.
Only then did Lan Xiu hurriedly turn off the computer and get up.
When he went downstairs, there was indeed a prepared supper in the kitchen. Lan Xiu also made a bowl of ginger soup and sent it to Leng Xinran upstairs.
When he came to the door, Lan Xiu raised his hand and knocked on the door. Just now, he could see that the light in her room was still on. He thought that she should not be asleep, but after knocking on the door for a long time, Leng Xinran did not answer.
He frowned, thought for a moment, and then opened the door.
As expected, the door was not locked. He twisted the handle, and the door was opened.
The room was very quiet.
“Xinran?”
Lan Xiu called out her name.
After calling her a few times and seeing that she did not respond, he walked in.
