Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423: I Have Nothing to Do with Him

As long as the scars heal, everything will be okay.

Wearing a comfortable and loose long-sleeved dress, Mo Lan sat in the living room, playing with Lele.

The little master had missed his mother for several days since she hadn’t been home, and he nuzzled against her leg incessantly, acting cute and coquettish.

"Madam, the Third Young Madam is here to see you," a maid announced upon entering.

Mo Lan looked toward the door in surprise and saw Jian Yufei coming in from outside.

"Sister-in-law, you’re here, please have a seat," she said with a smile, getting up to greet her.

Jian Yufei approached with concern, asking, "How are you feeling? Are you better?"

Mo Lan nodded: "Much better, thank you for caring."

Jian Yufei glanced around and whispered, "Is he not at home?"

Mention of Qi Ruigang caused Mo Lan’s expression to sober: "He hasn’t returned yet."

"Mo Lan," Jian Yufei took her arm and said with a smile, "It looks nice outside. Let’s go for a walk."

Looking at her meaningful and mirthful gaze, Mo Lan nodded her head.

Walking in the garden.

Jian Yufei made sure no one was around before she whispered to her, "Mo Lan, Qi Ruisen asked me to tell you something."

"Ruisen?" Mo Lan’s face turned uneasy, "What does he want to tell me?"

Jian Yufei gripped her hand, speaking with gravity, "He wants to know if you are aware of Qi Ruigang’s secret. Qi Ruigang has a very important chip, which contains the Qi Family’s business secrets. Getting that chip would be key to ousting Qi Ruigang."

Mo Lan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "I had no idea he had such a chip."

"Really? He doesn’t have somewhere special where he keeps important items?"

"I’m not very sure," Mo Lan shook her head, "Is that chip really that important? If we get it, can we really go against him?"

Jian Yufei nodded: "That’s what Qi Ruisen said."

Mo Lan became pensive, as if making a significant decision, and then looked up resolutely, "I will help you get it."

"Can you do it? You just need to find out where the chip is hidden; leave the rest to us."

"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine," Mo Lan said with a wry smile, "What more can happen to me in this state? At worst, I die, but I’m not afraid of death anymore."

"Mo Lan! You won’t be in any trouble, Qi Ruisen has said that, regardless of the outcome, he will get you out safely."

Mo Lan was startled and quickly waved her hands: "Sister-in-law, Ruisen is just sympathetic towards me, please don’t misunderstand!"

Jian Yufei lightly patted her hand with amusement.

"I haven’t misunderstood. And I have no relations with him."

"What did you say?" Mo Lan was even more shocked.

Jian Yufei smiled, "My marriage with him is a sham. I’ll explain the purpose later. My relationship with Qi Ruisen is purely a partnership. And by the way, my original name is Jian Yufei, you can call me Yufei from now on, stop calling me sister-in-law, it feels odd."

Mo Lan: "..."

After a brief discussion and repeatedly reminding her to be careful, Jian Yufei said goodbye and left.

Mo Lan returned to the living room to find Qi Ruigang sitting on the sofa, with his strong legs resting on the coffee table, his eyes chillingly and grimly fixed upon her.

Feeling guilty under his gaze, Mo Lan stopped in her tracks, not daring to come closer.

"When... when did you come back?" she asked tentatively.

She always felt a subconscious fear in the presence of this man.
