Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Mu Yan Protects Zhan Lan Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Mu Yan Protects Zhan Lan Zhan Xuerou stood up and looked towards the staircase on the sixth floor. There were two Hidden Guards by the staircase, their expressions solemn. Taking advantage of everyone watching the play, Zhan Xuerou softly walked over and asked, “Is Little White Pigeon upstairs on the sixth floor?” The two Hidden Guards ignored her. Feeling snubbed, Zhan Xuerou blurted out in frustration, “Are you deaf?” After speaking, she limped towards the upstairs. The two Hidden Guards drew their swords from their waists and said coldly, “Step back!” Startled by their voices, Zhan Beicang looked over and quickly walked over, shielding Zhan Xuerou. The two Hidden Guards nodded and said, “General, our master is hosting important guests upstairs, and this lady insisted on barging in; please forgive our rudeness!” Zhan Beicang had not expected Zhan Xuerou to be so persistent about Little White Pigeon. Zhan Xuerou’s forceful attempt was indeed rude. He knew they were right to politely refuse since the guards were simply doing their duty and were not intentionally making things difficult for Zhan Xuerou. It was her daughter who was being unruly. Zhan Beicang was displeased but dismissed the matter, saying, “It’s alright, my daughter was presumptuous!” After saying that, he grimly pulled Zhan Xuerou by the sleeve back to their seats. A moment later, Zhan Beicang, with a stern face, turned to Zhan Xuerou and said, “Rou’er, do not be reckless. You are the legitimate daughter of the Zhan Family; you cannot act so impulsively.” Zhan Xuerou’s eyes filled with lost hope, tears swirling in her eyes. Her father wasn’t siding with her; those Hidden Guards were so rude, and her father was a general who served the country. Why couldn’t he stand up for her and teach those two a lesson! She just wanted to go upstairs to see Little White Pigeon; what was wrong with that! Was her request really that unreasonable? Qin Shuang saw the tears almost falling from Zhan Xuerou’s eyes and patted her back, comforting her, “Rou’er, next time, father will invite Little White Pigeon to our home to perform just for you, would that be nice?” Zhan Xuerou’s tears fell onto the back of her hand, she smiled and wiped them away, saying, “Mother, your daughter was just startled, it’s no big deal; I’m not obsessed with Little White Pigeon.” Zhan Hui, playing with his brother and sister, looked at Zhan Xuerou and silently felt pity; his sister was just too sensitive, too fragile. A little thing and she would cry, always requiring the whole family to coddle her. She really wasn’t as easy-going and genuine as Zhan Lan. Zhan Xuerou coughed twice, softening Zhan Hui’s heart once more. Rou’er was not in good health, and after all, she was his own sister; it was better to pamper her. ... Zhan Lan, on the sixth floor, looked at the person on the stage, a smile inadvertently curving his lips. The person with the painted face was Xiao Chen! Zhan Lan had not expected Xiao Chen in his life to adopt the stage name Little White Pigeon. Moreover, he had begun performing a few months ago, and after performing, he’d return to Xiaohe Village, resuming his almost lifeless demeanor. Little White Pigeon’s captivating eyes lingered on Zhan Lan, full of affectionate amorous sentiments. Seeing the way Little White Pigeon looked at Zhan Lan, Mu Yan’s expression cooled. He glanced at Zhan Lan and noticed that Zhan Lan seemed to enjoy the attention. Suddenly, an inexplicable anger surged within him. Of course, he knew Little White Pigeon was a man, though he played a female role, but Mu Yan did not like the way he looked at Zhan Lan! Sensing Mu Yan’s hostility, Xiao Chen’s gaze became more restrained. Xiao Chen was well aware that in his past life, Mu Yan was the Regent King, second only to one and above tens of thousands. This lifetime he deliberately approached Zhan Lan, what exactly is his purpose! If Mu Yan has ulterior motives, he would naturally do everything to protect Zhan Lan. Zhan Lan feels deeply moved, Xiao Chen’s role is truly indistinguishable between male and female, even though they are familiar, she still gets drawn into the character. Mu Yan looked at Zhan Lan’s rosy cheeks, she held the wine jar, pouring herself a cup of wine. With Xiao Chen around, she could indulge a little in drinking today. Today is her fifteenth birthday! She still remembers in her previous life, on her fifteenth birthday, because she talked back to Zhan Xuerou, Mrs. Li made her kneel for a whole day. She knelt until her legs felt numb, and on top of that, it was her birthday, Mrs. Li didn’t even give her a bite to eat. She cried and knelt under Xue Wei’s memorial tablet, and fainted. That day, she would never forget. Because at that time, she didn’t know Mrs. Li was not her mother. She was saddened because her mother didn’t like her. Thinking back now, it is utterly ridiculous to be sad over someone who is not even her mother! Foolish! Zhan Lan drew back her thoughts, swirling her wine cup, she gulped it down. Mu Yan also took a sip of wine, looking at the flushed-faced Zhan Lan, he was more and more unable to understand her. Her eyes held loneliness, sadness, resentment, and also hope. Mu Yan was curious, what exactly had she gone through to have such varied expressions. Little White Dove was still singing on the stage, Mu Yan grabbed Zhan Lan’s hand with an irrefutable tone, “Accompany me to view the night scene!” Zhan Lan hazily looked at Mu Yan, until several afterimages on Mu Yan’s face overlapped, she saw clearly the person before her and sobered up instantly. Zhan Lan stood up with him, leaning on the railing. Xiao Chen’s face suddenly changed, Mu Yan had actually grabbed Zhan Lan’s hand, and Zhan Lan did not shake him off. Instead, she stood side by side with him on the edge of the viewing platform. Xiao Chen was ready, if Mu Yan dared to touch his Family Head General, he would give Mu Yan a dart anytime. Mu Yan looked at Ding’an City in his view, as well as the common people below Wangjiang Building. He muttered to himself, “Zhan Lan, are you dissatisfied with the Si Family?” Zhan Lan was stunned by Mu Yan’s words, she fearfully said, “Lord Mu, you are drunk, why are you talking nonsense after drinking!” Mu Yan watched her dazed eyes and sneered, “Is that so? The words we are speaking now are all drunken gibberish, you don’t have to take it seriously.” Zhan Lan waved her hands and laughed, “Lord Mu, I enjoy drinking with you!” The common people looked towards Mu Yan and Zhan Lan, Mu Yan stood in front of Zhan Lan, shielding her. Someone saw Mu Yan and exclaimed, “Ah, he’s come out! This man who looks like an exiled immortal is the owner of Wangjiang Building!” “Is that, is that not the Seal Keeper of Xingtian Department?” someone exclaimed in surprise. “Hey, why can’t I see who that woman is?” Mu Yan also noticed the gazes from the common people, he immediately pulled Zhan Lan back two steps, at this angle, the common people couldn’t see Zhan Lan’s face. He didn’t mind, but if the common people saw Zhan Lan meeting him privately, it would ruin Zhan Lan’s reputation. Taking advantage of Zhan Lan not being completely drunk yet, some things had to be done quickly. Mu Yan’s eyes looked towards the dark where Vermilion Bird understood immediately, and he swiftly went downstairs. Moments later, Zhan Lan saw the most unforgettable scene of her life.
