Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 568 Keeping a Canary in Captivity (47)

Gao Shenghan: "..."

After Yan Zhen finished speaking, he ignored Gao Shenghan and walked towards the Maybach.

Xiao Yun opened the car door for her, and Yan Zhen got in. After he closed the car door, he went around to the other side and got in.

As Xiao Yun passed Gao Shenghan, who was standing in front of the car, he stopped, turned his back to Yan Zhen, and looked at Gao Shenghan with a half-smile. He said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Mr. Gao, thanks to you for instructing my father to cause trouble on the set, my sister sent him abroad to mine. He won't be back for three to five years. You not only solved a big problem that had been bothering me for a long time, but because of this, my sister felt even more sorry for me and specially came to the set to stay with me for two days."

Gao Shenghan: "..."

Seeing Gao Shenghan, whose forehead veins were bulging with anger, Xiao Yun smiled at him defiantly and quickly got into the car.

Only after the car drove away from the company did Yan Zhen see Gao Shenghan standing there, almost furious, in the rearview mirror, and ask Xiao Yun, "What did you say to him?"

Xiao Yun lowered her head and said meekly, "When I asked if my dad had instructed me to go to the film set... he ignored me."

"What's the point of asking? Anyone with a brain knows it was him."

Xiao Yun sighed: "I hope that if he has any problems in the future, he will come at me instead of involving my family."

Yan Zhen glanced at Xiao Yun, then suddenly chuckled and reached out to pinch his chin: "Such a strong tea flavor. If we threw you into the Yellow River, people along the river for over 5,000 kilometers could drink green tea."

Xiao Yun: "..."

"Recognize your place, okay?" Yan Zhen patted his face. "You're a mistress who broke up someone else's family. All the benefits you got from me were shared with your family. Since you enjoyed the benefits, isn't it your own fault for being implicated?"

Xiao Yun: "..."

Old Zhang, who was driving in front, choked on his saliva and couldn't help but cough twice.

Upon arriving at Xiao Yun's villa, Yan Zhen felt as if she were back home. She first drank some soup and then took a relaxing bath.

As she sat in front of the dressing table in the master bedroom drying her hair, the bedroom door opened, and Xiao Yun slipped in.

Yan Zhen paused in her hair-drying motion when she saw Xiao Yun's appearance in the mirror.

Xiao Yun had just finished showering and was wearing a dark blue silk bathrobe. The bathrobe was loosely tied around his waist, and the draping fabric accentuated his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs. His chest was seemingly unintentionally open, revealing his well-defined chest and abdominal muscles.

With that look practically screaming "seduction," how could Yan Zhen not see it?

She watched Xiao Yun silently as he walked over, took the hairdryer from her hand, and began to dry her hair.

Neither of them spoke; the only sound in the room was the hairdryer.

After a short while, Yan Zhen's hair was dry. Xiao Yun turned off the hairdryer and began massaging Yan Zhen's temples.

His massage technique was very comfortable. Yan Zhen closed her eyes, her body slowly relaxed, and she leaned back against him.

As he massaged her, Xiao Yun gradually became restless. Sometimes he would brush her long, loose hair to one side, his fingertips inadvertently brushing her neck, and other times he would lean down and ask her if she wanted more pressure, his warm breath spraying on her ear.

The ambiguous atmosphere in the room gradually intensified with Xiao Yun's tentative actions.

Just as Xiao Yun was about to make his next move, Yan Zhen grabbed his mischievous hand.

She looked at Xiao Yun behind her in the mirror: "What do you want?"

Xiao Yun was taken aback.

"Money, or resources?"

Xiao Yun: "..."

He awkwardly withdrew his hand: "That's not what I meant."

"Stop being coy, just say what you want."

Xiao Yun gritted his teeth, mustered his courage, and leaned down to hug her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder: "Tomorrow is my birthday, can you spend it with me?"

"tomorrow?"

"Ah."

"No, it's a holiday tomorrow, I have to stay home with my parents and children."

Xiao Yun: "..."

He let go, looking disappointed.

Yan Zhen looked at his reflection in the mirror, his long eyelashes trembling as he lowered his eyes, looking both pitiful and adorable. She couldn't help but marvel at how devastating it was for a man to feign pitifulness and act like a green tea bitch.

Even though she knew Xiao Yun was deliberately putting on this act, her heart still fluttered slightly.

Yan Zhen pulled a black card from her bag on the dressing table: "No password, no limit, go pick out a birthday present you like."

Xiao Yun took the card and forced a smile: "Thank you, sister."

Yan Zhen turned around and pinched his cheek: "Go and rest."

Yan Zhen didn't have to go to work the next day, so she slept until she naturally woke up, had breakfast at the villa, and then prepared to return to the Yan family home.

Two days ago, Yan's mother sent her a message saying that she had found out where her good-for-nothing younger brother, Yan Heng, who had run away from home, was staying. She asked Yan Zhen to accompany her today to take a look from afar and make sure that Yan Heng was safe before she could feel at ease.

Xiao Yun escorted Yan Zhen to the door, took out boots from the shoe cabinet and helped her put them on, then took out her coat and bag and handed them to her one by one.

He behaved so obediently that Yan Zhen felt a touch of "pity" for him and casually asked, "What are your plans for today?"

Xiao Yun said, "I'm going to visit my mom at the hospital later."

"and then?"

Xiao Yun thought for a moment: "I'll go buy some more things and come back to look at the script."

"Gone?"

"Ah."

Yan Zhen suggested to him, "You could also go out and have a meal with your friends."

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "When friends in the industry get together, it's inevitable to take photos and post them on WeChat Moments and Weibo. I asked the crew for leave under the pretext that my mother was in a car accident and hospitalized. It wouldn't be good if my colleagues on the crew saw it."

"That's true."

Xiao Yun looked at Yan Zhen, hesitated, and finally said nothing. He simply gave Yan Zhen a light hug before she left and said, "Take care on the road."

Yan Zhen returned to the Yan family home, where Gao Shenghan was also present.

He didn't seem to have slept well; he looked even more anxious, and there were blisters on the corners of his mouth.

Yan Zhen ignored him and went out with his mother.

Old Zhang drove for almost two hours to a chaotic urban village on the outskirts of Hangzhou.

It was obvious that Yan Heng's mother had already found out where Yan Heng was staying. The mother and daughter waited in the car for a long time before finally seeing Yan Heng and two boys emerge from the nearby vegetable market.

Yan Heng was carrying a large grass carp in one hand and a chicken in the other. He was wearing flip-flops and cheap sportswear. His hair had grown a bit long, and he looked nothing like the pampered man he used to be at home.

But his smile was much brighter than when he was at home.

The two boys next to him were not very old. One was very tall and had a muscular build, while the other was fair-skinned and handsome, with a hearing aid in one ear.

The three of them, carrying groceries, passed by the car. Yan Heng and the muscular boy were pushing and shoving each other, looking like older, mentally challenged children.

The boy wearing a hearing aid seemed annoyed by their noise and quickened his pace.

Seeing this, Yan Heng quickly chased after him, calling out, "Ninth Brother! Ninth Brother, wait for me!"

Only after the three entered the alley did Yan's mother look away, saying with a pained expression, "Xiao Heng has lost weight."
