Extraordinary Demon King Soldier Chapter 43 - 43 Bai Lan's Concerns

Lan Ying's secretary entered the office and instantly froze!

Because she saw Lan Ying lift her clothes to reveal her belly, while Ye Qiu tenderly caressed it, with the feeling akin to a father lovingly touching his child.

"Is President Lan pregnant?"

This thought imdiately popped into her mind, scaring her quite a bit. She hurriedly said, "Sorry, I'm here at a bad ti. I'll leave right away. You both continue..."

Continue? It's gone this far, what more could continue!

Lan Ying quickly sat up, straightened her clothes, and said, "What is it?"

"Well... President Huang sent over the contract today and wants you to take a look at it."

The secretary was a bit nervous. After all, she had stumbled upon her boss's intimate mont, and she wasn't sure if President Lan would hold it against her.

"Bring it over."

Lan Ying took the contract handed over by the secretary, regained her composure, then glared at Ye Qiu and said, "Why are you still here?"

"Huh?" Ye Qiu hesitated for a mont, then replied helplessly, "Why do you always use and then kick out? I'm not just an easy guy!"

"If you want to die, just tell directly, I'll happily oblige!" Lan Ying said coldly, clearly at the edge of losing it.

"Alright, alright, I'm leaving, I'll leave now."

With that said, Ye Qiu left without looking back. Staying any longer would definitely not end well.

The entire interaction between Ye Qiu and Lan Ying was witnessed by the secretary, whose expression was bizarre and a bit uneasy. After struggling internally for a while, she hesitantly said, "President Lan, I didn't see anything, don't worry, I won't talk..."

"..."

Lan Ying was nearly fuming at the secretary's words. You saw nothing? Isn't that obvious nonsense? We didn't do anything to see in the first place!

After leaving Lan Ying's office, Ye Qiu began to wander around again, and before he knew it, it was already ti to clock out.

On the way to take Bai Lan ho, Bai Lan kept staring at Ye Qiu, which made him feel uneasy. He knew Bai Lan must have concluded that he was the one who saved her before.

It seems that Bai Lan is exceedingly smart. Discovering this wouldn't be difficult for her.

"Beep beep beep…"

Just then, Bai Lan's phone rang.

"Lan, only one month remains of our three-year agreent. Prepare well in this final month and hurry back."

Upon hearing the voice on the phone, Bai Lan furrowed her brows and hung up imdiately without saying a word, her face cold.

Though Bai Lan's phone was not on speaker, Ye Qiu's keen hearing caught every word the middle-aged man said.

"Not going back, let's go to the bar."

After hanging up the phone for so ti, Bai Lan suddenly spoke.

"Alright!"

Ye Qiu didn't know why Bai Lan made this sudden decision, but he didn't ask and turned the car towards the nearest bar.

Imperial City Bar, considered the most famous bar nearby.

It was only six o'clock, the sky hadn't darkened yet, but there were already quite a few people inside the bar.

Upon entering the bar, the heavy tal music filled Bai Lan's ears, causing her to frown slightly as it was her first ti in such a place.

But thinking of that matter, her frown relaxed.

Disregarding Ye Qiu, she headed straight to the bar counter, "Give your strongest drink."

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Bai Lan frowned when the bartender remained silent.

"Alright, alright, one mont!"

Startled by Bai Lan's demand, the bartender snapped to attention.

Internally, he marveled at how incredibly beautiful she was, forgetting everything around just from a single glance.

Soon, the drink was prepared.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Bai Lan choked after just one sip, not having a tolerance for alcohol.

"President Bai..."

Ye Qiu wanted to stop Bai Lan. For him, drinking such strong alcohol was fine, but for Bai Lan, who rarely drank, even one glass might be enough to get her drunk.

"Don't bother , let drink."

Bai Lan rejected Ye Qiu's concern, pushing his hand away and taking another sip from the glass.

Perhaps already accustod to the first sip, she didn't cough this ti, but the burning sensation made her frown.

However, experiencing this overwhelming burn was preferable to the pain inside, so she went all in and took another big gulp.

Ye Qiu realized Bai Lan's mood was quite bad, which was uncommon for her.

And Ye Qiu didn't know how to comfort her, except to stay by her side and drink with her.

The effect of the drink was swift; within minutes, Bai Lan's head felt swollen, and her whole being beca dazed.

"President Bai, you've had enough."

"No, I haven't had enough, I want more..." Bai Lan pushed Ye Qiu's hand away again, lifting the glass.

But this ti, she didn't drink, instead collapsing onto the bar, tears streaming uncontrollably.

"What's wrong?"

All along, Ye Qiu saw Bai Lan as a high-spirited, confident woman. Never had he seen her in such a fragile state.

Bai Lan remained silent, continuing to cry.

"That person who called you earlier, was he your father?"

Bai Lan's body shuddered at the word 'father'.

"Father? Does he deserve to be called a father?"

Perhaps the word struck her deeply, Bai Lan began to reveal her feelings.

"When I was young, he doted on imnsely. I always thought he was the best man in this world. But... he wants to marry a man I don't love! For family interests, sacrificing his daughter's happiness, does he qualify as a father?"

At this point, Bai Lan was heartbroken.

Listening to her, Ye Qiu sighed, as Bai Lan's situation wasn't unfamiliar to him.

Nowadays, many prominent families don't care about their children's happiness, prioritizing alliance through marriage.

This might be the sorrow of being born into a notable family!
