As she had predicted, just after walking out of the bathroom, An Nan t her husband’s worried gaze: "Nannan, what’s wrong? Have you been crying?"
An Nan quickly smiled and shook her head: "No, I haven’t been crying."
"Then what’s with your eyes?" Lin Mubai was obviously not convinced.
In response, An Nan quickly continued to explain: "I accidentally got shampoo in my eyes when I was washing my hair just now."
"Really?" An Nan was still skeptical.
"Really, as true as diamonds. Why would you suspect that I was crying? Is there anything worth crying about?"
An Nan looked innocently puzzled, finally managing to slowly convince Lin Mubai. Seeing him stop pressing the issue, her tense mood began to slowly relax.
Having convinced this man, she had another plan brewing in her mind, but such a plan certainly couldn’t be known by her husband. She already had enough troubles to deal with, there was no need to add another burden to herself.
An Nan hid things from her husband but had no secrets with Rocky, whom she had known for many years.
Seizing the opportunity when he ca to the hospital to visit her, An Nan found ti to speak clearly to him all at once, to prevent complications.
As soon as An Nan spoke, Rocky’s face suddenly beca serious and worried: "Nannan, how did you find out, and how long have you known?"
Rocky spoke with a face full of shock.
An Nan quickly waved him off: "No, no, no, lower your voice."
She had used the excuse of having this man take a walk with her to steal a little ti. If her husband heard, her plan would be ruined.
The reason for using this man was simple—because her husband now trusted him.
The clever Rocky quickly realized that she wanted sothing from him, and couldn’t help but furrow his brow: "Stop looking around, just say what you want to say."
An Nan’s face instantly lit up with a bright smile, pointing a playful finger at him: "Actually, it’s nothing major."
"Then what is it, are you going to tell or not?" Rocky’s patience was starting to wear thin. If An Nan didn’t speak soon, he’d likely get upset.
"Alright, alright, I’ll tell you, but don’t be so hot-tempered, where did your gentle and refined self go?"
"Speak." From this one word, An Nan instantly understood that this was his limit.
She hurriedly stated her request: "I need to see Xi Xilan, help arrange for her to co to the hospital, and help avoid my husband while you’re at it."
When An Nan stated her demand, Rocky looked at her with a dazed expression.
That look left her feeling quite puzzled inside.
She raised her hand and waved it gently in front of his eyes, looking puzzled: "Why are you stunned?"
Rocky, upon coming to his senses, imdiately shook his head and refused: "I won’t agree. Why are you ddling in so much right now? We will handle these matters. You just focus on recovering in the hospital."
Rocky thought he could persuade her, but he never expected An Nan to be so resolute this ti.
Having her request denied, An Nan narrowed her eyes and began to threaten him: "Rocky, you should know my connections and ans. You should also realize that once I’ve decided on sothing, I’ll do it no matter what, even if you don’t help today. I’ll find soone else to help . I’m determined to see Xi Xilan."
