Chapter 56: He’s My Distant Cousin

Before Yan Xiu came, he had never expected things would become this serious. He had only shoved her a little, and it would be logical if she were to suffer from slight injuries. But disfigurement?

His feet were rooted to the ground as he listened to Gu Anning’s scolding. He had no words of comfort for her. It happened because of him, and of course, he must pay for it. But he didn’t know how.

Gu Anning’s verbal attack didn’t stop till the point she knew nothing could have turned things around. She grew even glummer. She turned her head to Yan Xiu, who had been keeping his head down and not saying a word. Her eyes turned cold. “Everything is your fault.”

Yan Xiu nodded and said in embarrassment, “I can compensate you.”

The two no longer looked like a couple anymore. There was only hatred in Gu Anning.

“My face can’t be deformed,” she sneered, “You have to get me the best doctor and fix this. Or else, I’ll take you to court, and you’ll end up in jail. Even if it takes everything.”

Yan Xiu just stared at her disfigured face, and he had no words. In the beginning, he was deceived by her appearance, thinking that she was just an innocent girl. Yet, from their interaction in the past few days, plus her seducing Yan Yunge, Yan Xiu had seen through her. He was sure that if he didn’t get her a specialist to fix her face, she would be ruining his life. Quickly, he agreed. “Okay. I promise.”

Gu Anning didn’t continue, but her gaze towards him was wicked.

Yan Xiu couldn’t stay any longer. “I’ll get you a doctor. But I’ve got something going on, so I’ll see you around.”

After leaving the ward, he heaved a sigh of relief. While Yan Yunge had such a great girl like Lu An’an by his side, he had to clean up the mess. He couldn’t help but raise his resentment toward the man.

At this instant, Yan Yunge had just finished his work at his office when he realized that it was already night.

Previously, Lu An’an had told him that Yan Yinlan had recovered and could go home. Yan Yunge looked at his watch, and it was time to pick up the kid. He then instructed the driver to drive him to the hospital.

Lu An’an was bored as she scrolled through her social media while watching cartoons with Yan Yinlan. Unexpectedly, Yan Yunge arrived. She was already exhausted from staying in the hospital and doing nothing all day long, and then she saw her savior, Yan Yunge. “Are we going home?” she asked with her eyes wide open.

Yan Yunge nodded. How cute was the girl?

The family of three quickly packed up their things. When they walked out of the hospital, they bumped into one of Lu An’an’s acquaintances.

“An’an!” A man called from behind.

Lu An’an looked over her shoulder to find Lu Xiao. Although they didn’t speak to each other after high school, she still had an impression of him. She smiled. “Lu Xiao? Why are you here?”

“I just came home from abroad. I’ve got something going on here.” Lu Xiao returned a grin, his attention shifting to Yan Yunge beside her. “Mr. Yan. Funny to see the two of you together.”

With Lu Xiao’s piercing stare, he now focused on the kid sandwiched between them.

Lu An’an felt her face go red. She didn’t inform people about her marriage, and she would most likely not see Lu Xiao anymore. She hesitated, not knowing how she should introduce Yan Yunge.

After what seemed like forever, she came up with a lie. “He’s my distant cousin.”

Yan Yunge was still wearing a smile before it went stiff. Her distant cousin? What a lie!
