Chapter 270 Awakening
Chapter 270 Awakening
Wei Chaoyan shook her dizzy head, complaining, "If we weren't in a hurry, even a dog wouldn't use this short-distance teleportation talisman!" as she moved to help Wei Ying and Lan Zhan.
Coincidentally, Qi Ye and Qing Yan had the same idea!
Unfortunately, Lan Zhan was not only worried about Wei Ying's condition, but also about Lan Qiren and Lan Huan, who were using the talisman for the first time. Worried about both, he simply put his arm around the dizzy Wei Ying, and quickly and accurately used his remaining hand and half of his body to brace against the backs of Lan Qiren and Lan Huan, who were swaying as soon as they stepped on the ground.
They happened to be positioned differently from Wei Chaoyan and the other two!
Seeing the current situation of Lan Zhan and the others, Wei Chaoyan and the other two felt embarrassed for a moment, then gave a dry laugh and went to help each other. Qi Ye helped Lan Qiren, Qingyan helped Lan Huan, and as for Wei Chaoyan, well, she didn't dare to touch Lan Zhan. She could only stand beside him and stare at the two of them with unspoken words.
Lan Zhan looked back helplessly and said, "Sister, Wei Ying and I are already used to using this talisman. There's nothing wrong with it, so you don't need to worry so much! You've had a long day, so why don't you go back to your room and rest for a while? Wei Ying has something to discuss with you later!"
Wei Chaoyan was puzzled as to what Wei Ying needed so urgently to find her. She was about to ask when she realized that both of them looked exhausted. So she quickly changed her words and urged, "Okay, I understand! Zhan, you take Ying back to the room to rest first. I'll go arrange accommodations for Uncle Lan and Brother Lan. I'll rest after I'm settled!"
"Don't rush to sleep yet. I've already ordered hot water and food from Aunt Lin in advance. The food will be delivered in about fifteen minutes. After you finish eating and wash up, then go to sleep."
"As for Aying looking for me, there's no rush. Let's talk about it tomorrow!"
After a pause, still worried that Wei Ying might have some urgent matter that needed immediate attention, he added, "Never mind, if the situation is truly urgent, just knock on my door once things have calmed down a bit, and I will come out immediately to meet you in the study. After all, my room is right next to the study!"
"Ugh, Sister..." Wei Ying lay on Lan Zhan's chest, dizzy, trying to say something, but was interrupted by Wei Chaoyan, "Alright, what are you dawdling for! A-Zhan, quickly help him back to the room!"
Lan Zhan nodded, carefully put his arm around Wei Ying, and turned to bow to Lan Qiren and Lan Huan, who were being supported by Qi Ye and Qing Yan respectively. Lan Qiren and Lan Huan looked dazed and weak. Lan Zhan whispered to them, "Uncle, brother, please go back to your room with Qi Ye and Qing Yan to rest. I will take Wei Ying back to his room and then come to see you."
Upon hearing this, Lan Qiren waved his hand and retorted with feigned toughness, "A-Zhan, after you've seen Wei Ying off, go back to your room and rest. There's no need to come back to visit! I'll take care of A-Huan!"
At the same time, Lan Huan also struggled to half-raise his heavy head: "Ah Zhan, brother... ugh... brother is fine, just a little unwell, ugh... I'll be fine after sitting down for a bit! Don't... um... treat brother like a porcelain doll!"
Seeing that Lan Qiren and Lan Huan both strongly refused, and considering their personalities and pride, Lan Zhan did not insist. He could not hide his worry and cast a concerned look at Qi Ye and Qing Yan, who were supporting the two of them. The two of them immediately gave him a look that said, "I'll take care of everything, don't worry." Only then did they turn around and walk slowly with Wei Ying towards Tingzhu Garden at the end of the left corridor.
Wei Chaoyan rubbed her forehead and instructed Qi Ye and the others, "Qi Ye, help Uncle Lan to rest at Yansong Garden, which is diagonally opposite Tingzhu Garden. Qingyan, help Brother Lan to rest at the Shuishui Garden, which is adjacent to Yansong Garden on the left. The furnishings there were arranged by me a couple of days ago, specifically for Uncle Lan and his uncle, and should suit their aesthetic tastes. After you've seen them off, you should also quickly return to your rooms and wait for the hot water and food to be served!"
Qi Ye and Qing Yan replied softly, "Okay, sister. And what about you?"
Lan Qiren, barely managing to stay awake, thanked Wei Chaoyan intermittently: "Miss Wei, thank you for your trouble!"
Lan Huan, his arm dangling on Qing Yan's, struggled to maintain his composure as he slowly raised his hand in a gesture of respect: "I thank Miss Wei for her kindness. Please rest well, Miss!"
Wei Chaoyan narrowed her eyes and waved her hand, "I'm going back to my room too!"
Despite saying that, as soon as Qi Ye and the others left, Wei Chaoyan shook her head and headed towards the gate. She wanted to see if Aunt Li, the owner of Xiangxiang Restaurant, had delivered the ordered items!
After fussing around for a while, the group returned to the Wei residence, washed up with the hot water that had been brought to them, ate their steaming dinners, and then went to bed to rest.
As dusk approached and all was quiet, Wei Ying, slightly relieved, suddenly opened his eyes. In the darkness, he turned his head to meet the pale, glassy eyes of Lan Zhan, who lay on the other bed in the room. "Lan Zhan~"
"Wei Ying, are you going to find your sister?" Although it was a question, it conveyed an undeniable certainty.
"Hmm~, Lan Zhan, I'm too weak to get up. You have to help me!" In the darkness, Wei Ying couldn't see Lan Zhan's expression clearly, but his playful nature kicked in and he turned to the side, acting coquettishly.
Lan Zhan got up and quickly dressed. He walked to Wei Ying's bedside as if walking on flat ground in the darkness, lit the lamp in front of the bed, and helped the naughty Wei Ying change his clothes by the dim light without looking to the side.
He said lightly, without any annoyance, "Wei Ying, it's too dark now. My sister is probably still waiting for us!"
Wei Ying's smile froze for a moment. He obediently cooperated with Lan Zhan's actions and quickly dressed. Then, hand in hand with him, they walked swiftly and gracefully under the soft moonlight to Wei Chaoyan's Juyue Garden. Looking up, they saw that the entire Juyue Garden was dark, but the lights of the Qiuzhen Study next to it were flickering, indicating that Wei Chaoyan was already waiting for them in the study.
After entering, the two naturally took their seats in the two empty seats in front of Wei Chaoyan, who was resting his chin on his hand, looking bored and lost in thought. As soon as they sat down, Wei Ying gently tapped his fingers twice on the table.
The sound was crisp and not too loud, yet it was exceptionally clear in the stillness of the night.
With a sudden "pop," a lamp flame exploded, and Wei Chaoyan snapped out of her daze, yawning as she asked in a muffled voice, "Aying, what urgent matter do you have that you have to resolve today?"
Wei Ying lowered his eyes and stared at the distinct textures of the tabletop, his knuckles trembling slightly as he placed them on it. "Sister, have you checked the live stream since you came back?"
Wei Chaoyan asked, puzzled, "Of course! I even chatted with them for a while!"
"No," Wei Ying said anxiously, raising his head and pursing his lips as he stared intently at Wei Chaoyan, "It's just, well, how should I put it again..."
Perhaps unsure how to put it, Wei Ying's words were somewhat incoherent. "Sister, what I mean is, have you checked the system backend?" Lan Zhan reassured him by squeezing their tightly clasped fingers and said calmly.
"Huh?" Seeing how cautious the two were, Wei Chaoyan suddenly had a bad feeling. She pouted and quickly checked the system backend.
The series of glaring data on the backend interface made Wei Chaoyan feel as if her heart had stopped beating, the whole world lost its color, and she felt dizzy.
"Aaaaaaah! What happened?! Where are my points?! Aaaaaaaahh ...
After a moment of silence, a long, earth-shattering, unbelievable, sharp explosion burst forth from Wei Chaoyan's wide-open mouth, like a sharp knife slicing through the stillness of the night. The sound carried far and wide, waking not only Lan Qiren and the others who were sleeping soundly, but also people in the surrounding courtyards. Loud and soft noises and voices rose and fell in waves.
In an instant, the entire area became noisy, unlike the quiet atmosphere of the night!
