"What did you say?" Is it possible that she will die? " Lan Ning cried in alarm, unable to accept this truth. How could such an active and healthy Xue Bao say that he would die just like that? His fists clenched tighter, almost hitting Yan Junyi's face.

He had clearly said that he would protect Xue Bao and take good care of her, but in the end he had still made her sick!

"Yes." Yan Junyi nodded his head and did not say anything else. He pressed on the elevator and was about to enter, when Lan Xin suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking his path: "Wait!"

Yan Junyi instinctively took a step back, moving a little further away from her. He stared at her and asked, "Miss Lan, what else do you want?" A look of annoyance appeared on his handsome face. He was disgusted by the fact that Lan Datong had always treated him like a monster.

Lan Ning twined his fingers around his hair and giggled: "Isn't it just because you want to go to the underground palace? I can bring you there, let me tell you, I have a much higher position than Lan Ning in the Lan family."

Lan Ning's handsome brows furrowed, still joking around at a time like this!? However, what she said was true!

Yan Junyi was stunned for a moment. She looked at the blue great gold in front of her and saw her bewitching demeanor. It seemed like there were conditions, and they should be very difficult to fulfill!

"Speak, what are your conditions?" Yan Junyi went straight to the point and did not beat around the bush.

Lan Xin smiled maliciously, and said: "At that time, Yan Wenxuan let me go to that blind date, making me lose face in front of everyone. If I wanted him to personally come and apologize to me, this condition should be easy to fulfill, right?"

When she thought about that proud eagle apologizing to her, she couldn't help but feel happy. But it seemed to be rather difficult, so she kept her eyes on Yan Junyi, waiting for his response.

Yan Junyi agreed without even thinking, "I will do my best." He wasn't confident in persuading Yan Wenxuan, but once he thought about Yan Wenxuan's concern for Xue Bao, he thought that for Xue Bao's sake, he should be willing to lower himself once.

Lan Xin was ecstatic, he pushed Lan Ning and said: "Hey, look at the conditions that you want, I'll mention it along the way." She was relieved that she could use Xue Bao to devour him.

"I want to see Xue Bao." Lan Ning only had one tiny request, and that was to see Xue Bao!

"No way!" Yan Junyi rejected him without thinking. He rejected her like he always did out of instinct because he didn't like Xue Bao having too much contact with other men. After saying these two words, he suddenly felt some regret.

Yan Junyi opened his mouth, but then changed it: "Forget it, Xue Bao has been arguing with you for a long time already anyways, if he wants to meet you, you guys can make an appointment now."

He could only endure the pain of saying that as he gave Lan Ning Xue Bao's number. Then, he walked into the elevator.

Behind him, Lan Xin faced his back and reminded: "Don't let my father know, or else he'll kill me!"

As soon as Yan Junyi returned home, the Old Master Yan came over and asked: How was it? Does that Director Lan have any leeway to let go? " He had probably guessed that the Old Master Lan would not agree.

Sure enough, Yan Junyi could only shake his head and say: "He still won't let go, but I will try my best to enter the underground palace." His only hope was that Lan Xin truly had the ability to enter the Moon God Hall!

"Mm, I'll think of something." The Old Master Yan nodded his head and said immediately: "Master Ming Zhen heard that the Moon Night Picture is unearthed, and hopes to find some clues on the painting, you try to think of a way to retrieve the painting from Dongfang Jue's hands."

"Dongfang Jue is already missing. I can't find him." Yan Junyi was completely vexed. If he knew earlier, he would have kept the Moon Night Picture. He shouldn't have let Xue Bao keep such a precious thing.

With so many people in the Ning City, even the police were unable to track Dongfang Jue's whereabouts. Naturally, he felt more and more confident that he would be able to find him.

"That fellow is truly worthy of the old master being unwilling to even protect him!" Old Master Yan said bitterly.

Yan Junyi didn't say anything else and turned around to head back to his room. He didn't know what Xue Bao was doing at this moment, but he suddenly wanted to see her immediately.

As they neared the door, they heard the sound of a zither playing from within. It was a kind of chaotic, yet pleasant monotonous sound. He pushed the door open and walked in. He saw Xue Bao carefully cleaning the sky-priced zither with a dry cloth.

His cautious appearance made it seem as if this guqin was a baby that had yet to grow a bone. He was so serious that he didn't even know he had walked in, afraid that he would crush it with just a little force.

Yan Junyi stood by the door for a while, then walked over with large strides. Xue Bao heard the footsteps that were approaching, then raised his head and called out with a smile: "Yi, you're back? "Where did you go?"

"Go and do something. Are you good at home?" Yan Junyi carried her who was squatting on the ground and hugged her tightly.

Xue Bao unhappily rolled his eyes and said, "Please, I'm not a child, how could I be disobedient?"

Yan Junyi smiled, and gave her a kiss on her white face. He gazed at her and said in all seriousness: "I just saw Lan Ning at the company, he said he misses you, and wants to meet you."

Xue Bao looked at him in surprise, then shook his head. "No, I'm afraid that a certain big vat of vinegar is going to be knocked over again. The smell of vinegar is flying everywhere." Her face was full of mischief, and her smile was ambiguous.

Yan Junyi's handsome face darkened, and then he chuckled: "Don't worry, as long as you keep me in your heart, it will be enough."

At this point, if he still didn't believe in Xue Bao's sincerity towards him, then he would be letting her down a little too much. He would be letting down this relationship, and also letting down himself. On the road of love, he finally had some rationality.

Xue Bao saw that he was serious and didn't seem like he was joking. He carefully said, "Then I really have to go. Don't be angry and ignore me."

"That depends on your expression." Yan Junyi chuckled, and buried his face deep into her shoulders, using his teeth to lightly nibble on her neck, teasing her.

Xue Bao giggled and pushed him. He lowered his voice and said, "Hey, it's broad daylight right now. Can you stop thinking about this? How embarrassing would it be for someone to come and see it later?"

"I don't care." Yan Junyi didn't mind, he pressed her down on the sofa and continued to kiss her. It made her whole body throb.

Perhaps it was because of Xue Bao's words, but at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Xue Bao immediately pushed Yan Junyi away and jumped up from the sofa.

Yan Junyi was displeased, he intended to ignore the knocking on the door, but Xue Bao raised his voice and shouted: "Come in."

The door was pushed open and Sister Liu walked in. He said with a smile: "Eldest Young Master, Young Madam, Master Ming Zhen is standing at the door. He wanted to ask if you guys have seen the Moon Night Picture with your own eyes."

Yan Junyi and Xue Bao looked at each other and immediately walked towards the door. The moment Yan Junyi heard about the illness, he really wanted to know the progress. Xue Bao, on the other hand, had seen Moon Night Picture too many times and was curious as to why Master Ming Zhen would ask such a question.

The two of them walked out. Master Ming Zhen lowered his head and respectfully greeted them, "Greetings, Eldest Young Master and Young Madam."

"I've seen Moon Night Picture before, what's wrong?" Xue Bao asked, puzzled.

Master Ming Zhen raised his head and looked at her anxiously, "Did Young Madam notice any words on the painting, which is related to the curse?"

Xue Bao tried his best to think about it, only shaking his head after a long time, "No. Other than the two words' Yue Ye ', there was another word written on it,' Jade Red '. I didn't find anything related to a curse."

Master Ming Zhen said with disappointment, "Oh." When he looked at her again, he said apologetically, "Sorry, sorry for disturbing you. I will go back and think of a way now. I will go right away." There was still fear in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was afraid of Yan Junyi.

After Master Ming Zhen left, Xue Bao looked up at Yan Junyi and said: "Yi, I'm not wrong, there's no other words on the painting right?"

Yan Junyi nodded lightly, because he did not know that although he had seen the Moon Night Picture a few times before, he had never paid attention to them. He had never thought that he would one day use that painting!

When Yan Junyi explained Lan Xin's conditions to him, Yan Wenxuan rejected him without hesitation. Her handsome eyebrows knitted together as she looked at Yan Junyi with disdain, "You actually believe in this kind of game between rich girls?"

"I have to believe it." Yan Junyi laughed helplessly. He was willing to believe that this time, it was because of Xue Bao!

Yan Wenxuan was stunned for a moment. Looking at the bitter smile on his face, he started to feel some sympathy. After taking a deep breath, he spat it out. He had never paid attention to this woman.

"Very pretty." As Yan Junyi spoke the truth, he had no choice but to admit that Lan Xin was indeed beautiful.

"That's good. Tell her to set the time as she wants and I'll be there on time." After Yan Wenxuan finished speaking, he turned around and continued to work on the bottles on the table. Apologize and then apologize, for the sake of Xue Bao's illness, he had no choice but to agree.

Yan Junyi knew that he was in a difficult situation, and said: "You don't have to bother with her, I'll think of another way." With Yan Wenxuan's proud nature, asking him to apologize to a woman was really too difficult for her.

"This kind of miss, the more you provoke her, the more passionate she becomes. It's just an apology, it's okay." Yan Wenxuan shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. It was not as if the fact that a man could yield and submit were anything big of a deal to him.

Yan Junyi's cold face revealed a hint of gratitude, but he did not say the word 'thank you' out loud. After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and walked towards the door, leaving Yan Wenxuan's studio in big strides.

The location was arranged to meet at Lan Xin's Bar, and in one of the slow bars, Lan Xin was afraid that his attitude wouldn't be good. In other people's territory, if she couldn't disturb him, she could at least control herself a little.
