The Overnight Chosen Wife: darling, kiss me deeper

"This is so unfair!" Lanni pinched his face. But that did nothing to help, so she huffed and snuggled in his arms to sleep too.

Because she had already taken a week off, Lanni had nothing to do all week. She wanted to go back to Star Art International but now that she had found something to do, she might as well go back the following week instead.

On Wednesday in the morning, she took her breakfast quickly before thinking about how to go about what she was planning. Initially, she had decided to directly go to Ji Feifei before the Feng family did but after doing some research, she found out that the Feng family had already discussed with Ji Feifei. All that was left was signing the transfer document. It was useless no matter what she said. Hence, she thought of another way instead.

She grabbed her phone and shoved it into her satchel and headed out.

"Where are you going?" Li Yuming asked when she saw Lanni blazing past her.

"I’m meeting someone." Lanni stopped briefly to answer.

"I know I told you to help Xiehan when you can, but that does not include putting your life in danger, okay? Don’t do anything dangerous." Li Yuming nagged.

"I know, mom. I’m not doing anything that’s too dangerous or too difficult for me." She saw that Li Yuming was about to start another round of nagging and smiled. "I know, I know. If I need any help, I will call you."

Li Yuming smiled in satisfaction, gave her a few more reminders and let her go.

...

Lanni rushed to Planet Café. She had booked a private room to meet someone.

"It’s you?" The man asked, puzzled when he saw her walk in.

Lanni walked over and sat opposite him. "You know me?"

"Yes. You are Ji Xiehan’s fiancée aren’t you? I bet the whole world knows and I should have guessed that you are the one who would want to meet me." He responded, slightly angry that he had been tricked into the enemy’s lair so easily.

The man was Old Master Feng’s chauffeur. The previous day, he had received an anonymous email from someone who claimed that they could change his situation, and they asked to meet him in this café at this time. How stupid he had been! He had thought that the Ji family wouldn’t resort to using such tricks to get whatever they wanted but clearly, he had been wrong. No, he must have been blinded by desperation.

Knowing that he would walk right out if she wasted his time, Lanni went straight to the point. "Listen, I was not bluffing. I can indeed change your situation."

"What can a little girl like you do, huh? What do you even know?" he scoffed.

"Do you judge people’s abilities by their age?" Lanni threw back a question at him.

"I don’t. But for one like you, I don’t even need to judge. It is pretty obvious that a girl like you would only know to look pretty and enjoy being pampered."

Lanni leaned onto the backrest languidly with a tiny smile at the corners of her lips. "You are testing me." When he looked shocked, her lips twitched. "If you despised me half as much as you make it sound, you would have walked out as soon as you realized that I’m the one who called you here. "

Caught by a little girl, An Zichen was ashamed of himself. "Fine. What do you want?"

"That’s the question I was waiting for." Lanni smiled. She was a little annoyed at how he took her for a pampered princess. Why did many people do that anyway? She was pampered by her mother, alright, but that did not mean she knew nothing. "I know about the debts your parents left unpaid." She suddenly announced.

An Zichen was flabbergasted. "How did you..."

"I can help you clear that." She cut him short. "Every single one of them to the very last cent." She emphasized.

Without waiting for him to react, she continued, "Your abilities are impeccable but your current job cannot provide anything more than just a meal." After digging up, Lanni knew just how underpaid the employees in the Feng family were. But it was not her business to feel wronged on their behalf unless she had to, like right now. She looked at the man’s shocked face and continued. "Which is why, I will help you get a better job. That way, you will be able to take care of your sister."

"You know about my sister too?" the man was so puzzled that he looked at her like she was a god of sorts.

"I promised to change your situation. Now, how can I change it if I don’t even know the situation to begin with?"

And it had not been too difficult to find out everything about him. After looking up the employees close to Old Master Feng, she found out that all of them had some difficult past that allowed Old Master Feng to exploit them. That was why none of them had quit on their jobs.

She knew that when Chauffeur An’s parents worked for the Feng family and when they died, they owed the Feng family a huge debt. Since he was unable to repay the debt, Old Master Feng brought him to his home, to work for him as a chauffeur until the debt was repaid. Even if he worked hard and received nothing from his lowly pay, it would take at least fifty years for the debt to be completely repaid.

He had no major problem with using up the rest of his life to pay a debt his parents had to owe because it was urgent. However, he had to take care of his sister who was weak in health. He needed money for that and every time she got sick, he would have to borrow more money from the Feng family and the debt kept piling up.

Lanni was sorry for having to use such a person but she had to. Besides, she wouldn’t even realize such a person existed. She snapped back from her thoughts and continued offering her help. "I will also take your sister to a better hospital, get her the best doctors and a kidney donor."

"And I’m supposed to believe that there is such a thing as fallen angels?" he stared at her. "You want me to betray the Feng family, don’t you?"

It was not that he couldn’t. If someone could save his sister, forget about betraying the Feng family. He would even betray himself.

"Of course not." Lanni waved her finger. "I only want you to help me deliver a document."

"How can I be so sure that you will not play me?" He asked cautiously. It wouldn’t be a first. Before he was brought to the Feng family, someone had offered him a job, promising to save his sister if the job was complete. But after completing it, they went silent on him. That was why he was unable to trust Lanni.

Hearing his words, Lanni was not surprised. She took out her phone and dialed a number and called it. "Are you done yet?"

"Yes." Came the reply on the other side.

"I see. Bring the phone to her." Lanni changed to video call and turned the phone to Chauffeur An.

"Do you think you can fool me..." his ramble stopped when he suddenly saw his sister’s face on the phone. "Ziyao!"

"Brother!" the young woman was cheerful despite her condition. She happily waved at her brother on the screen. "Guess what? I’ve been transferred to another hospital. Look, I’m in a VIP room. It’s much better than anywhere I’ve ever been!" She excitedly tilted the phone so he could see the beautiful VIP hospital room.

"I don’t know who brought me here and paid off the bill. The doctor in charge only said that it’s a young woman. Whoever she is, may all her dreams come true."

An Zichen was just as emotional as his sister, tears even uncontrollably falling from his eyes. "Ziyao, hold on a moment. I will call you later."

As soon as he hung up, he looked at Lanni gratefully, all his previous suspicion about her only bluffing fading in a flash. He suddenly slumped onto his knees. "Thank you."

Lanni was taken aback. "Please don’t kneel!"

He stood up, still emotionally thanking Lanni profusely. Only after thanking her almost a hundred times did he stop to ask, "But since you have already helped my sister, what if I don’t comply with your request?"

"What do you think?"

An Zichen stuck his hands together in front of his face. "You will not have to do anything. I’ll do whatever you ask."

Lanni sighed in relief, having accomplished what she wanted. She took out a document from her satchel. "I want you to give this to Ji Feifei. Tell her it’s the share transfer document and ask her to sign it. The money will be sent to her bank account within an hour."
