C141 The Second Time He Acted on His Own Accord(1)
Every dangerous wave will have waves blooming.
"Yan, what do you think we should do?"
On the third day after Yan Zhengyuan "tormented" Yan Xuan, Zhao Wanyi took advantage of her free time. She pulled Lyi Yan to the company's rest area and told her that Sun Dongqing wanted to invite her to dinner. Dong frowned slightly at the side but did not say anything. Lyi Yan also frowned. She once again confirmed to Zhao Wanyi, "Inviting me alone? You didn't ask you to go too?"
"Yes. He said he wanted to have a meal with you alone. I want to talk to you about your mother." Zhao Wanyi also frowned. Sun Dongqing was someone she could not figure out. "I dare not ask too much. Uncle Sun is the kind of person who keeps his word. He does not like people asking him why repeatedly."
"Did you tell Yan Xuan about this?" Lyi Yan paused for about a minute before asking.
"Not yet. Professor Yan Xuan is still in the hospital. I am afraid I will tell him. He would be annoyed. I also want to ask you guys if you want to tell him about this. " Zhao Wanyi had been debating whether she should tell Yan Xuan about this matter since the beginning. In the end, she still decided to give the choice to Lyi Yan.
"Let me think, let me think." Lyi Yan sat down on the sofa in the resting area. She thought about it and then looked up at Dong. She asked, "Do you think Yan Xuan will let me go if he knows about it?"
"You just had an accident. If it were me, I would not agree." Dong told her what he thought.
"But he said he wanted to talk about his mother. It might be helpful to find the clues from back then." Lyi Yan bit her lips. On the one hand, she knew that it might be dangerous. On the other hand, she felt that this was an opportunity. "From the beginning to the end, it was Yan Xuan who put in a lot of effort to investigate his mother. I have not done anything yet..."
"How about this, let's change our perspective." Zhao Wanyi pulled Dong to sit down as well. She took a piece of paper and a pen from the table beside her and came over. "Let's make a list. What dangers will there be if we go?"
"Dong is driving normally on the way back and forth. That western restaurant is in the center of the city. There is no danger of being ambushed in any small streets or alleys." Lyi Yan made the first list.
"That restaurant is of high quality. There should be no problem with the food quality and safety." Zhao Wanyi added.
"The biggest danger should be that Sun Dongqing will find someone to put me down after dinner and take you away." Dong said at the end.
"But if Uncle Sun really wants to do that, he should call Yan directly. Why do you want me to know about this? " Zhao Wanyi thought about it and felt that Dong's assumption was not valid. " And why did he want to take Yan away? The one who doesn't like Yan should be Aunt Pann Mei, right?"
" Yes, yes. Then the biggest danger of this matter should be that it will stimulate Pann Mei again. What kind of shocking thing did she do again! " Lyi Yan nodded her head in a serious manner, but she still hesitated in her heart. Should she go or not? Should she tell Yan Xuan or not?
"I think it's better to tell him. We should listen to his opinion." Dong's idea was to tell Yan Xuan.
"I think Yan Xuan will not agree, but this is the second time Uncle Sun has invited Yan. Wouldn't it be bad if we don't go?" Zhao Wanyi's idea was not to tell Yan Xuan.
"You two each get one vote. Doesn't that mean you didn't say anything?" Lyi Yan felt that both of them made sense and could not help but feel even more awkward. At that moment, her phone rang.
The caller was Qi Mingyu. He told her that Yan Xuan had a fever in the morning. In the afternoon, after he was busy with other patients, he would take her to do a more comprehensive examination. He told her not to go to the hospital in the evening and see that the patient was not in the ward. She was in a panic.
Lyi Yan made a few "Oh" sounds and hesitated a little. She mustered the courage to tell Qi Mingyu about this beforehand. She asked for his opinion. There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. After a while, Qi Mingyu stopped laughing. He said in a serious manner:
"Good and bad mixed together. I can only say that if I tell Xuan about this, he will have the same hesitation as you. Although logically speaking, he will feel that going is better than not going, emotionally, he will definitely not let you go. You should know this better than me. Right now, he would rather work harder on himself. I won't let you take the risk. " Qi Mingyu's answer was somewhat out of Lyi Yan's expectations. She thought he would tell Yan Xuan directly.
"Xuan cares about you, so I can understand why he is so cautious. But to tell you the truth, I actually agree with you going." Not only did he not object, Qi Mingyu even voted in favor. "You let Dong accompany you the whole time. I will call Director Sun. Inform him that I know about this matter as well. Plus, Wanyi's side's trust is tied down. I don't think Director Sun will do anything out of line. As for Pann Mei, that should be something to worry about in the future. You guys are unable to guard against her. Instead of cowering, you are in a passive position."
... "" Lyi Yan had long been inclined to go, and she would have decided to tell Qi Mingyu. Actually, she hoped that he would stop her. She did not expect that it would turn into support instead. "I know this might make Yan Xuan angry, but it is not possible for me to always be protected. He is now injured and sick, and he still has to worry about me. He racked his brains to find clues... Sun Dongqing was clearly the biggest clue. It would be a pity to let him go. And I want to help him share some of the burden, alright. I won't hesitate anymore! Don't tell him about this meal first, I'll go! "
" Be careful, I'll call Director Sun after I hang up. " The identity of the Qi family's second young master was more or less useful.
"Okay, I will do my best." Lyi Yan took a deep breath. Although she was still a little nervous, she still made up her mind.
Objectively speaking, there was no right or wrong in this matter.
Yan Xuan's injury was the main reason to facilitate the concealment. Everyone hoped that he could have a good rest and not worry about anything else. In the end, Lyi Yan and Zhao Wanyi successfully persuaded Dong to join in the concealment.
The dinner was her hard work.
Dong did not deliberately dress up. He drove and they appeared at the entrance of the western restaurant a little earlier than the appointed time. After parking the car, the two of them walked into the restaurant together. It was a friendly and courteous waiter. He led the two of them to the table that Sun Dongqing had booked. Sun Dongqing had not arrived yet. The waiter poured a cup of lemon water for the two of them and sat down to wait.
The vintage dark golden rose paper made up the main style of the restaurant. Magnificent glass lamps were arranged irregularly in different colors. They were not as dazzling as the crystal lamps, but they were decorated with a quiet atmosphere. The light yellow tablecloths were laid flat, and the dark patterns of the rose flowers were printed on them. It resonated with the wall, making it seem very romantic. The clean white porcelain bowls were neatly arranged without a speck of dust on them. The silver knives and forks were quietly placed on both sides, and the high feet of the glass were crystal clear. The gentle reflection of the colorful glass lamps and the melodious sound of the violin filled the dining room. All of this was delicate, solemn, elegant, and luxurious. It should have been relaxing and relaxing. However, it made Lyi Yan and Dong very uncomfortable. They thought about their lives. It should have been drinking beer and eating barbecued food in the food stalls that made them comfortable.
"Sorry, I asked you to wait for me." Sun Dongqing walked into the restaurant alone. His eyes swept across Dong and then stopped on Lyi Yan's face. "Yan, can you let your friend eat at the table next door? I don't want to say anything about your mother in front of others."
"No problem." This request wasn't too much. Furthermore, Sun Dongqing had ordered a double table. Dong did not wait for Lyi Yan to speak and nodded at Sun Dongqing. He stood up very consciously and went to the table next to them. Regarding Lyi Yan's mother, he was indeed a little embarrassed at the scene.
"Cough cough." Lyi Yan cleared her throat and did not realize that she was still a little nervous. However, Dong was not far away, so she could still remain calm.
