Chapter 1568: Chapter 467: Reality
"Ding ding ding ~"
Is it a voice call?
Yan Huan glanced at Yuanlina in front of her.
Feeling Yan Huan’s gaze, Yuanlina immediately turned away thoughtfully.
"Click..."
The sound of a door closing came from the other side, but Yan Huan didn’t pick up the phone immediately, instead, she kept looking at the door.
The next second, Yuanlina peeked out from behind the slightly closed door with an awkward smile.
She cutely stuck out her tongue and then finally shut the door completely.
"..."
Eventually, Yan Huan pressed the "answer button."
"Xiao Huan!"
As soon as the call connected, An Le’s voice came from the other side.
Yan Huan smiled slightly and first asked,
"How about it, did you tell Teacher Miyake about attending the new project?"
"Eh? I did, Teacher Miyake already agreed..."
An Le was slightly taken aback, but then she switched the topic belatedly and asked urgently,
"Wait, Xiao Huan, now is not the time to talk about this... You... you went to see Mom and Dad before, right?"
"...Yeah."
"No wonder... No wonder Mom and Dad suddenly moved back and even know about my work... They said a lot of supportive things, telling me not to feel too pressured, that as long as I have a diploma, I can freely try things... They even bought me a new tablet..."
Listening to these words, Yan Huan’s smile grew wider,
"Isn’t that great? You were worried about these things before. They’re not narrow-minded parents; they love you too; they just needed a little reminder... Now they’ve changed, everything’s..."
"But... but..."
As she spoke, An Le whimpered a little and quickly said,
"Mom and Dad found out about your relationship with others, said a lot of bad things about you, and won’t let me contact you anymore."
"..."
"They said if I secretly contact you again, they’ll go to school... tell everyone about Xiao Huan... I argued with them, but... I’m too scared to act recklessly... afraid..."
Yan Huan held the phone, slightly opened her mouth.
After a silent pause, she sighed, smiling calmly,
"No wonder I didn’t see you at school today..."
"At a time like this, Xiao Huan, you’re still joking!"
Over the phone, An Le was almost in tears, yet even so, she didn’t dare raise her voice.
You could tell, she was making this call to Yan Huan secretly.
"If I can’t see Xiao Huan again... I... I..."
"An Le..."
On the other side of the phone, An Le shrank in the corner of her room holding the phone, her shoulders trembling slightly.
At the closed door, Little Thumb was standing guard, ready to alert if her parents approached.
But at that moment, Yan Huan’s steady voice came from the phone, easing An Le’s heart a bit,
"I... will resolve this issue..."
"Resolve it?"
"Uh-huh, just like how I resolved the modifier before, leave it to me, no need to worry."
"..."
Listening to her beloved’s voice, An Le couldn’t help but feel reassured.
Yes...
Just like before.
When having the modifier, no matter how painful the heartache was, no matter how desperate the situation seemed...
No matter what happened, Xiao Huan would come forward at the crucial moment to solve all the problems...
"Then..."
"Just focus on your drawing for now, maintain a good relationship with Uncle and Aunt. This opportunity is hard-won, you must cherish it..."
"Okay..."
An Le hugged her knees and nodded gently, listening to Yan Huan’s whisper,
"I said I’d take responsibility for everything."
"Xiao Huan..."
An Le was touched and wanted to say more, but suddenly Little Thumb’s alert was heard at the door,
"Your mom is coming, hide!"
"Xiao Huan, my mom is here, I... I need to hang up..."
"Okay."
"Beep... Beep..."
The call suddenly ended, and Yan Huan put down her phone, looking at the chat page for a long time.
Then she exited the call and entered the desktop to check the time.
By now, Alvira should be dining with Sakuragi Yuri and Aunt Ye.
"By the way, Yan Huan, I might need to leave for a short while, Meow!"
At that moment, Meow’s voice suddenly came from beside her.
Yan Huan blinked, locking her phone screen without a change in expression, and asked,
"Is something wrong?"
"Meow?"
Meow showed a deadpan expression and patted Yan Huan’s body with her paw,
"You told me before to test it out, Meow! I might need a few days, I’ll be back by the weekend... If everything goes well, even if you give up the modifier, we’ll meet often, Meow!"
"...Alright."
Yan Huan nodded with a smile, and Meow wagged her tail and turned around.
"Then I’m off, Meow, wait for my good news!"
"No problem."
Meow turned back to glance at Yan Huan once more, then happily turned into a puff of black smoke and vanished into the world.
Afterward, Yan Huan sat in silence.
Her fingers moved slightly, and a shiny gold crab coin jumped at her fingertips.
"..."
She stared at the crab coin for a long time until her gaze became suddenly clear.
Then she tossed aside the crab coin, took out her phone, and opened a ride-hailing app.
She decided to go to the Golden Lion Group.
...
...
"Buzz..."
"Buzz..."
The golden light shimmered over the wine in the cup, reflecting a pair of deep blue eyes.
At the dining table, Alvira gazed at the empty table in front of her, lost in thought.
In front, there were two empty chairs.
In front of the chairs, several waiters were clearing away leftovers.
Guests had just left.
