Chapter 145 Pandora's Box

A Sen clicked his tongue, and he raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. It was almost eleven o'clock, and he couldn't help being a little surprised, "It's so late, what is Xia Minglang trying to do?"

Ke Muyang frowned slightly, but remained silent.

Indeed, if what Asen saw during the day today can still be explained, how can Xia Minglang appear here again in the dead of night, how can he explain it?

Ke Muyang tapped with his fingertips, but he couldn't seem to find a suitable reason.

A Sen seemed to be thinking relatively simply, and said with a smile, "Could it be that Xia Minglang was Annie's former guest?"

"What did you say?" Ke Muyang suddenly looked up at Asen with a solemn expression.

A Sen was stunned, looking at Ke Muyang's expression, and said, "I mean, Annie used to be one of the famous ladies in the upper class. Although she is middle-aged now and has lost her former beauty, I see I have seen photos of her when she was young. She was very beautiful. She was very popular in the celebrity circle back then. She was taken care of by a well-known wealthy businessman, but no one saw that person from the beginning to the end, until she eloped...

Ke Muyang rubbed his chin. He had indeed heard of these things. It happened more than 20 years ago. At first, he thought it was all about Anne's affair. When he was investigating Anne, he didn't pay much attention to it. It seems that it is not as simple as imagined.

"Sir, is there any problem with these?"

Ke Muyang thought for a while and said, "Do you think Xia Minglang's current status would still care about an old and haggard woman?"

"Yeah, I also find it strange. If it's just because of my son, then I wouldn't come back in the middle of the night. It's really a bit strange."

Just as he was talking, he saw a little movement in the quiet alley ahead, and saw Xia Minglang hurrying out with Annie, who had fainted, regardless of his own image.

"Sir!" Gu Bai, who had been waiting in the car, was a little surprised.

"Hurry up, take her to the hospital." Xia Minglang carried Annie into the car, and then the black Porsche drove away in a hurry.

Looking at all this, Ke Muyang couldn't help narrowing his sharp eyes. After he was silent for a while, he raised the corners of his lips, "It seems necessary to investigate what happened more than 20 years ago, maybe we can find reason."

"Yes." Ash nodded.

"Let's go." Ke Muyang closed his eyes and said calmly.

The car slowly headed in another direction...

The autumn rain came unexpectedly, and the rain fell heavily, and the rain slid down the window glass.

An Xi's face was very pale, her legs were curled up in the bay window, her head was slightly tilted to one side, and she leaned there.

Xia Zhan stood at the door of the room and asked Emma, ​​"How's it going?"

Emma replied in a low voice, "The high fever doesn't subside, and she refuses to ask her to go to the hospital. She always says she's fine. What's going on? I've never seen her like this before. Did you guys quarrel? Or was it your affair?" object!"

"What kind of affair!" Xia Zhan smiled helplessly, "Okay, go get busy."

"Hey, why am I so busy? An Xi is a major designer, and I'm just an assistant. If she doesn't work, I can't work either."

Xia Zhan thought for a while and said, "Inform Ke Shi that Miss An Xi is ill and needs to rest for a few days."

"Ok."

"Go and get busy." Xia Zhan said, and walked straight into An Xi's room.

He walked up to Anxi and sat down, and took her into his arms, and Anxi shrank into his arms like a poor kitten.

"What's the matter, your forehead is so hot, why don't you go to the hospital?"

"My mother is missing." An Xi said softly, "I don't know where she went, I'm very worried about her."

"When did this happen?"

Anxi sighed helplessly, "I don't know either. I went back and everything was there at home, but my mother was gone."

"It's okay, don't worry, I will find her for you, she shouldn't go too far." Xia Zhan comforted.

Anxi slipped into his arms, "I'm afraid something will happen to her, no matter what, she is my mother, my only relative. Elvis, please find my mother."

"En, good." Xia Zhan covered her with a blanket, then patted her body, as if coaxing a child to make her fall asleep...

After making sure she was asleep, Xia Zhan carried her to the bed to make her sleep more comfortably.

Anxi's mother did not hesitate to sever the relationship between mother and child to force Anxi to break up with him. Why?

This made Xia Zhan a little suspicious, and he couldn't help but start to suspect something...

Pandora's box is destined not to be opened by curious people, but once it is opened, it will be a tragedy for everyone...

And all of this has just begun...

Xia Zhan finally found An Xi's mother in a nursing home.

She was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face and no blood.

Sunlight casts on her bed from the window.

"Young master, sir, no one can go in without his permission." Gu Bai at the side was obviously a little surprised by Xia Zhan's sudden appearance, but he still dealt with it calmly.

"Father, what do you mean?" Xia Zhan looked back at Gu Bai and asked.

Gu Bai lowered his head, smiled very respectfully, and said, "Mr. just heard that Miss Anxi's mother was ill, so he brought her here specially. Don't worry, there is the best medical treatment here. Miss Anxi's mother will be here soon." can recover.”

Xia Zhan chuckled, "But I think it's more like house arrest."

Gu Bai was silent, at this moment, Gu Bai's cell phone rang.So he took out his mobile phone and connected, "Sir."

"Let Tianzhan answer the phone."

Gu Bai immediately handed over the phone respectfully, "Master, sir asked you to answer the phone."

"Father."

"Come back, I have something to tell you."

Xia Zhan was silent for a while, then said "En" and agreed.

An hour later, Xia Zhan returned to the Xia family mansion.

When he opened the door and entered, the butler greeted him respectfully, "Master, you are back."

Xia Zhan rarely comes back, he always lives outside.

"Is no one else here?" Xia Zhan handed the car keys to the butler casually, and took off his coat.

"Madam Xishan has become a vegetarian and worshiped Buddha."

Xia Zhan said "En", "Where's father?"

"He's upstairs in the study."

Xia Zhan went straight upstairs and pushed open the door of Xia Minglang's study, "Dad."

"Come in." Xia Minglang was looking at something, and when he heard Xia Zhan coming in, he put down the things in his hands, raised his eyes to look at Xia Zhan, and asked, "Have you been to a nursing home?"

"Yes. Anxi was very worried about her mother, so I investigated it. To my surprise, she turned out to be the nursing home that you sent her to, Dad."

Xia Minglang smiled, motioned for Xia Zhan to sit down, and then continued, "I just heard that she is ill, and the medical treatment there is very good, which can help her improve her self-cultivation."

"Father, do you have something you want to tell me?" Xia Zhan was not stupid, so he knew that it must not be that simple for his father to do so.

Xia Minglang still smiled and said, "Yes, I heard that An Xi wants to create her own brand, right? So I decided to create her own brand in the name of Xia's."

Xia Zhan lowered his eyes, "Then what are the conditions for Dad?"

Xia Minglang was silent for a while and then said, "You and her break up immediately."

Xia Zhan stood up, "I can't do this. Dad, you said that you will not interfere with my marriage."

"I did promise, but you should also know what An Xi's mother does."

"That has nothing to do with Anxi, she has no choice."

"Tian Zhan, you are about to take over as the general manager of the Xia Corporation, and the chamber of commerce has a very good image of you. I don't want to affect you because of a girl with such a poor background. You are a rational person , all plans will not be ruined because of the children's affair. Your sister and your aunt, you know, are thinking of dealing with you, and Anxi's background is your weakness."

Xia Tian Zhan's face was condensed, "Jiangshan beauty, I want it!"

"With Jiangshan, why is there no beauty! Besides, her past has been forgotten by people now, but there are many caring people who will make a big fuss. Tianzhan, this is the way to survive in this circle. Break up with her early, yes Everyone is good."

"I won't. We will decide what happens to me and her."

"Tian Zhan!"

Xia Zhan turned around, turned and left without looking back...

Xia Zhan left in a hurry, not paying attention to Xia Zhilan who was hiding at the corner of the stairs.

Looking at Xia Zhan's back, she walked out slowly, then looked at the closed study door, and couldn't help showing a smile.

"I didn't expect to come back to get something, but I didn't want to hear such a good show. It's really wonderful. Oh, it turned out to be more than that, Anxi, this time I will make you look down for the rest of your life. A prostitute, a woman daughter. Hehe, it’s really nice.”

Xia Zhilan thought for a while, then turned around happily, walked to her father's study, knocked on the door, "Dad!"

Xia Minglang looked at her and said with a smile, "Why are you back?"

Xia Zhilan walked over, and coquettishly said to him, "Mom said she asked me for a safety talisman and asked me to come back to get it, but she hasn't come back yet."

Xia Minglang smiled, "It should be soon, I'll stay and have dinner tonight before leaving."

"Hmm, okay."

Xia Zhilan thought for a while, then walked to Xia Minglang's side, "Father, I thought I heard you quarreling with your brother just now?"

"What did you hear?"

"No, but I think I know what it is."

Xia Minglang raised his eyebrows, "Oh? What the hell do you know?"

"Father, don't say that I care about my younger brother. Anyway, he is my younger brother. As an older sister, I am also worried about him. As the eldest son of the Xia family, no matter what, I have to find someone who is well-matched. You see What kind of person did he find on his own initiative? In terms of family history and background, how can she be worthy of being a member of the Xia family. There are even rumors that Anxi's mother is a prostitute. Where do you put your face?"

When Xia Minglang heard these words, his face immediately became gloomy.

Xia Zhilan secretly observed the changes in Xia Minglang's face, so she continued, "Father, you should try to persuade my younger brother anyway, I want to persuade him, but you don't know that he didn't think of me as a sister since he was a child. No matter what, the Xia family can't accept a woman with such a background, Dad, tell me, if this is known to others in the future, where will we save face? Maybe my brother will still be yours in the future Heir, what... what to do."

Xia Minglang looked at Xia Zhilan, although he knew in his heart what she was thinking, after all, he knew his daughter too well.

But every word she said reached his heart, and he smiled and said, "But what do you say?"

Xia Zhilan sighed with pity on her face, "Although it's a bit cruel, I think it's better to let them break up early. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain."

Xia Minglang knew that she must be paying attention when she said that, so he said, "Then what do you think is better?"

"Dad, do you trust me?"

Xia Minglang said with a hearty smile, "You are my daughter, of course I believe you."

Xia Zhilan chuckled, "Then leave it to me. But Dad, don't say it's me. What if my younger brother hates me? I don't want to see such a result."

"Don't worry, as long as you help Dad solve this problem, Dad will definitely give you a big reward."

"Haha, okay, I want Chanel's new limited-edition perfume this year."

"You, that's all you know, okay. Dad will promise you."

"Thank you dad."

As Xia Zhilan said, she possessed herself and kissed Xia Minglang on the cheek.
