Chapter 1056: Guests in the Manor
“Good evening, Madam Jun.” An Lin took off his hat and lowered his head slightly at Xia Wanyuan.
Xia Wanyuan stood up. “Hello, Jun Shiling won’t be back for a while. Sit first.”
“Okay, sorry to disturb you.” An Lin walked to the sofa and sat down.
An Luo handed a box to Xia Wanyuan. “I bought it as a gift. It’s for tonight’s meal.”
Xia Wanyuan opened it and saw an extremely beautiful pair of pink diamond earrings. This dinner cost too much.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful!!” Xiao Bao exclaimed.
Xia Wanyuan pulled Xiao Bao and introduced him. “Call him Uncle An Lin. Call this little friend Brother.”
Xiao Bao blinked his big eyes and called An Lin uncle sweetly. An Lin nodded slightly. He had no patience for all children, except for his younger brother.
“Little Brother.” Xiao Bao stared curiously at An Luo’s blue eyes. He thought of the princes in the sea in fairy tales. Their eyes were also blue. “Your eyes are so beautiful.”
An Luo replied unnaturally and moved closer to An Lin.
An Lin stroked An Luo’s hair and looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Miss Xia, you can busy yourself. I can wait for CEO Jun myself.”
...Xia Wanyuan did not stand on ceremony. She did not know much about An Lin and Jun Shiling, so she could not say much to An Lin. She could only instruct Uncle Wang to serve the fruits and pastries.
Xiao Bao also received a piece of sugar cake.
“Mm.” Xiao Bao took a bite of the candy and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. It was too delicious! It was much more delicious than milk candy!
Xiao Bao was satisfied with the candy crumbs. Xia Wanyuan reached out to wipe them for him.
“Thank you, Mommy.” Xiao Bao held the candy cake and smiled sweetly at Xia Wanyuan.
When An Luo, who was sitting opposite him, saw this scene, he lowered his eyes dejectedly. An Lin turned around and brought the pastry that An Luo liked to his mouth.
When Jun Shiling returned to the manor, he was holding an entire bouquet of bright roses. On the way home from work, he saw that the roses in the flower shop by the roadside were blooming, so he bought some.
Just as he walked to the door, Uncle Wang welcomed him.
“Young Master, there’s a guest at home. It’s Mr. An Lin from the Cape family.”
“…” Jun Shiling did not stop moving. “I understand.”
Xiao Bao had lost his mind because of the sweet sugar cake and milk candy and had completely let down his guard. Not only did he eat the sugar cake openly, but he even took out his milk candy to share with An Luo.
“Little Brother, eat quickly. My daddy won’t let us eat when he comes back later. He’s super fierce,” Xiao Bao secretly said to An Luo.
Just as the candy wrapper was removed, a big hand reached out from behind. Xiao Bao turned around and was shocked.
Jun Shiling took all the snacks from Xiao Bao and threw them aside. Then, he grabbed his collar and handed him to Uncle Wang. “Uncle Wang, bring him to brush his teeth.”
How could Jun Shiling not tell An Lin’s intentions? He glanced at Xia Wanyuan and handed her the red rose in his hand, then looked at An Lin. “Let’s talk upstairs.”
“Okay.”
Only Xia Wanyuan and An Luo were left in the living room. After a while, Xiao Bao was sent down by Uncle Wang.
An Luo felt very uncomfortable sitting here. Others were the mother and son, while he was sitting here unnecessarily.
Xia Wanyuan glanced at him, stood up, and pulled Xiao Bao to the side to say something. Xiao Bao went upstairs and took a large pile of his beloved toys, then sat beside An Luo.
Xiao Bao was not as arrogant as An Luo. He would be very straightforward about who he liked. Xiao Bao hugged An Luo’s arm. “Little Brother, can you play with me?”
An Luo’s body stiffened. This child was a little too enthusiastic, making him very uncomfortable.
“Let’s go together.” Xia Wanyuan walked over and sat on the carpet. She waved at Xiao Bao and An Luo. An Luo hesitated for a moment, but in the end, Xiao Bao pulled him over.
In the study, An Lin and Jun Shiling sat opposite each other.
“CEO Jun, I believe you already know something, right?” At this moment, An Lin was no longer as gentle and patient as he had been in front of An Luo. His eyes were like an eagle’s with an extremely invasive aura. “After all, your information network is much larger than mine.”
Jun Shiling and An Lin met each other’s gazes. “There’s a problem in Continent F. The next step will affect Continent O. I shouldn’t be the first to be anxious.”
An Lin smiled. “Really? CEO Jun, don’t you know that the target of Sea Shark and Old K is China? And from what I know, Old K has already begun to take action.”
Jun Shiling picked up the teacup and took a sip, not surprised at all.
“As expected, I was overthinking. With CEO Jun around, what is there to be afraid of?”
Jun Shiling put down his teacup. “You should have another agenda coming to look for me.”
“I can’t hide anything from CEO Jun.” An Lin took out a document. “CEO Jun, you can take a look at this document first. Let’s talk in detail.”
The study fell silent.
Xia Wanyuan and An Luo ate dinner together. Jun Shiling and An Lin chatted in the study for a long time. It was almost eleven when the study door finally opened.
“An Luo, let’s go.” An Lin went downstairs and called out to An Luo, who was watching Xia Wanyuan draw.
“Mm.” An Luo seemed to be in a good mood and ran happily to An Lin’s side.
Facing the coldness of the night, An Lin left the manor with An Luo.
“An Luo, we’re leaving Beijing tomorrow.” An Lin pinched the space between his eyebrows. He was a little hungry and tired.
“Okay.” An Luo nodded and took out a few pastries from a box. “Brother, this is for you.”
An Lin was a little puzzled. “I thought you would be reluctant to leave.” After all, An Luo seemed to really like spending time with Xia Wanyuan.
An Luo took off his shoes and leaned against An Lin. “Brother, I’m very envious of that child. He has Xia Wanyuan’s care and a complete family.”
An Lin’s hand that was holding the pastry paused. Just as he was about to say something, An Luo continued, “But I have you. I know that Brother is the best person in the world to me.”
An Lin’s heart warmed. He smiled and patted An Luo’s head. “Silly child.”
