Chapter 587: 550 The Lonely Seven Group (2 More Updates)

"I know, keep an eye on them."

"...Oh."

After hanging up, Lu Han drove home.

By the time he reached home, Lu Han received a message from Ouyang Chen, whose reaction time had finally caught up, "Lu Han, the real Lu Han, did I meet the true face of Solitary Eagle today?"

Lu Han: "..."

The second message: "Lu Han, I heard Solitary Eagle is the leader of the Seven Solitaries. Can I meet the other six big bosses too?"

The third one: "Lu Han, how exactly do you know them?"

And the fourth: "Are they looking to expand to an eight-person group? If so, take me with you; I wouldn’t mind a nine-person group either."

Speechless, Lu Han replied with just one message, "Send one more message to harass me, and I’ll add you to my blacklist."

Regarding all his previous queries, Lu Han didn’t resolve a single one for him.

When he reached home, it wasn’t early. The living room still had its lights on, and the hallway lamps were left on too, illuminating his path all the way to his and Tang Su’s bedroom.

Tang Su, who had been feeling sleepy, suddenly woke up at the sound. She glanced at the time – it was already midnight. The display on her phone showed her chat history with Sun Qing, the last message from half an hour ago.

She placed the phone on the bedside table and went out to meet Lu Han, who was already hurrying upstairs.

Surprised to see Tang Su come out, he asked, "Haven’t you slept yet? Or did I wake you up?"

"I didn’t dare to sleep without you back," Tang Su admitted frankly. She had dozed off for a brief moment, just a light nap.

She was thinking of him.

She guessed he was dealing with something very important, for the sake of Jiaojiao and Elder Tan. They were their good friends. Over the past few months, her relationship with Jiaojiao had grown as close as sisters’.

Before even entering the room, Lu Han scooped her up in his arms and pressed his lips to hers, lingering repeatedly on her soft lips.

After a while, Lu Han let her go, "Let’s go to sleep. I’ll take a shower first."

"Mhm, I’ll wait for you."

Lu Han, with deep eyes, nodded, "Okay."

However, after a ten-minute shower, Lu Han found Tang Su had already dozed off, leaning against the headboard.

She truly wanted to wait for him, which is why she didn’t lay her head on the pillow. But sleepiness was real, and, within those ten minutes, as Lu Han was by her side, Tang Su fell into a deep sleep within a second.

Lu Han chuckled softly, adjusting her so that her head rested comfortably on the pillow, letting her sleep peacefully.

After drying his hair, he lay down beside Tang Su.

Lu Han couldn’t sleep; his mind was preoccupied.

With his hands behind his head, he stared at the ceiling in darkness, contemplating his next move.

The upcoming wedding was a good cover, but he didn’t know if Elder Tan and Lin Jiaojiao could hold on against what Lin Menmen had used on them, until their wedding day.

If they could last until the wedding, they held the winning cards. But what if they couldn’t?

Jiaojiao was Tang Su’s good friend, she cherished Jiaojiao deeply; he felt the same about Elder Tan. After moving to Beijing, Elder Tan was one of the few who told him not to mind the nonsense of others.

Lu Han was a grateful person. He remembered those who were kind to him, and he wouldn’t easily forget those who weren’t.

He had to save Elder Tan, even if it meant blowing his cover.

With those thoughts, Lu Han turned and held Tang Su in his arms. Tang Su, smelling the familiar scent of Lu Han in her sleep, snuggled deeper into his embrace.

She instinctively wrapped her arms around Lu Han’s waist, displaying an extreme sense of dependence on him.

Lu Han smiled contentedly and then closed his eyes to chase Tang Su in his dreams.

**

Lin Family.

Lin Menmen sat in the living room while the old butler approached, "Miss, the master, madam, and the eldest young master have all drunk their milk."

"Hmm," Lin Menmen narrowed her eyes, stroking the black cat in her arms.

Besides the old butler, the other servants all felt uneasy at the sight of the black cat.

Such a pure black cat with fine features was not common, reportedly quite expensive but in books, many authors depicted black cats as ominous.

They truly did not understand their young mistress; looking like a delicate and pampered heiress, why would she want to keep such a cat?

"Call over that maid we hired the day before yesterday," Lin Menmen directed, placing the black cat on the floor.

The black cat let out a loud cry and ran towards the door.

Lin Menmen did not allow the Lin family’s servants to restrain her cat, nor did she limit its freedom. After all, it would appear whenever she needed it.

That was enough.

At that moment, the new maid was summoned by the butler.

"All right, you all may leave," Lin Menmen changed her sitting position.

"Yes, Miss."

When only Lin Menmen and the other person were left in the living room, Lin Menmen gestured for her to sit, "Miss Ouyang, I’ve put you through a lot."

"Not at all, Mrs. Tan," Ouyang Jingjing sat down, "I should thank you for providing me with a place to stay, unnoticed by others."

"It’s only right, a win-win cooperation. We’re all in the same boat, suffering from unrequited love," Lin Menmen smiled.

"Now that Mr. Tan is completely in your control, even if Lin Jiaojiao comes back, it would be futile. In a few days, he’ll have completely forgotten there was ever such a person as Lin Jiaojiao."

"I hope so. If this little lab rat is a success, then Doctor Lu will eventually be yours to control too. In the future, we can help countless sisters suffering from unrequited love. Starting from Beijing, it will spread across the country, and we’ll just sit back and make a fortune."

"Yes, Jingjing is willing to follow Mrs. Tan forever, with absolute loyalty and no second thoughts," Ouyang Jingjing seized the opportunity to state her loyalty.

She did not yet know what sort of secret weapon Lin Menmen possessed, but by sticking with Lin Menmen and gaining her trust, she would eventually be let in on the secret.

"Good, come back to the Tan Family with me."

"Thank you, Mrs. Tan," Ouyang Jingjing grinned broadly.

Lin Menmen’s willingness to keep her by her side indicated that she had gained her trust.

Before leaving with Ouyang Jingjing, Lin Menmen called the old butler over to give him some specific instructions, and then they left.

Lin Menmen brought Ouyang Jingjing back to the home she shared with Tan Lixin. Since Tan Rongrong had been hospitalized, she had not been staying with her in-laws. Knowing that Lu Han and the others were back, she urgently needed someone who would stand in opposition to Lu Han to watch over Tan Lixin for her.

The Poisonous Insect in Tan Lixin’s body would take forty-nine days to mature. Currently, he still had his own consciousness. If Lin Jiaojiao came back, Lin Menmen could not guarantee whether everything she had done would come undone should Tan Lixin and Lin Jiaojiao meet?

She could not afford to gamble, nor did she wish to.

That night, she placed a Poisonous Insect in Lin Jiaojiao’s body, a lethal one.

If Lin Jiaojiao dared compete with her for a man, Lin Menmen would not let her off easily, even if it meant she was destined to die; Lin Menmen wanted to ensure her death would not be an easy one.

She wanted Lin Jiaojiao to regret, even as a ghost, ever competing with her for a man.
