The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

Xia Luna had slept all evening and all night. She didn't even wake up when Madam Jiang finished cooking and tried to wake her up for dinner. She was famished.

Taking the clothes that Jiang Xingyu had prepared for her, she freshened up and went downstairs for breakfast. Lin Jian had rushed over for breakfast too under the guise of missing Madam Jiang's delicious dishes. Obviously, Jiang Xingyu knew Lin Jian's real reason but only laughed and did not expose him. When he was done, he snuck a glance at Xia Luna and rushed out.

B City airport. 

As soon as Ji Xiehan and Li Lanni arrived, Lin Jian was waiting for them.

"Why are you here?" Ji Xiehan asked him in surprise. 

Lin Jian took a long, scrutinizing look at Li Lanni and tried to find the differences between her and Xia Luna. 

'Oh, even with identical eyes, Lanni's gaze is more on the gentle side while her sister is kinda unfriendly and fierce.' Lin Jian thought. Besides, there was no way Xia Luna would have disappeared from the Jiang old Mansion and appeared with Ji Xiehan at the airport. So there were really two of them. They had not told him why not many people about Li Lanni's twin so he had only half-believed their tale. 

"Is something the matter?" Lanni was uncomfortable under his gaze. 

'The sister looks like one who would have beaten me up instead of asking if anything is wrong.' 

"Nothing is wrong. I just wanted to pick you up." Lin Jian rambled. 

Lanni said nothing more but gave Ji Xiehan a look that said, 'I think he met my sister too.'

Ji Xiehan nodded slightly, understanding her suspicions. 

Li Lanni swallowed. Luna would have to be more careful if she actually wanted to hide. More importantly, it was better to prove her innocence before the whole world knew about her. 

Li Lanni went back home as Ji Xiehan rushed over to the company. 

…

When she arrived home, Li Yuming was watching a movie in the living room. 

"You're back?" Li Yuming was surprised to see Li Lanni. 

"Yes." She tiredly flopped onto the sofa. "The vacation had to end prematurely." 

"You should have told me. I would have come to pick you up." Li Yuming hugged her daughter before understanding the situation. "Did you come back because of what happened in Feng Ji International? It must be pretty serious then." 

"You heard about it too? What happened?" Li Lanni was curious as to what would have been too difficult for Old Master Ji to handle on his own. 

"I don't know much. There was suddenly news about Tragedy befalling Feng Ji International but it only lasted a few minutes. I guess Lin Media Group took it down." 

Li Lanni nodded in understanding. No wonder there was no news. At least none that she read about or watched anywhere. It turned out Lin Media Group drowned it. 

"Anyway, the news was briefly about how Feng Ji International's CEO might change soon." Li Yuming said as she recalled what she had read before the news got pulled down. 

"But what's wrong with that? The CEO was bound to change soon, right?" And logically, Ji Xiehan would be the new CEO. 

"Yes, but come to think of it. If the next CEO was going to be Ji Xiehan, it wouldn't be termed as a tragedy." 

"That seems unfortunately right." Lanni swallowed. Such things usually happened in companies. It was common and hard to deal with. "I hope the Ji family can handle it." 

…

It was only much later that Li Lanni was able to find out what exactly had happened. As soon as Ji Xiehan had a little time, he went to talk to her knowing that she would be worried about him. 

"You look tired." Lanni poured him a glass of water. Even his shirt was a little wrinkled at the collar. He must have rushed to the company right from the airport and after understanding what was going on, he must have rushed over to her without having time to freshen up and change his clothes. 

"I'm no longer so tired after seeing you." He put the glass back onto the table, then grabbed her hand and pulled her to sit on his lap, hugging her like a soft toy. 

"Hey, this is my mother's house." She reminded softly. How could he be so shameless?

"Then let's go to mine instead." He nuzzled against her neck with no intention to let go. 

"Don't mess around. Tell me, what's going on?" 

Ji Xiehan sighed at that. It was more stressful than it sounded. "Our second largest shareholder suddenly sold his shares to a mysterious buyer." 

"How could that be?" 

"Heaven knows. The man didn't give any reason and he doesn't have toㄧthere is no rule that major shareholders have to explain their decisions regarding the shares." 

"So what are you going to do now?" Li Lanni tousled his hair soothingly. 

Her soft fingers in his hair and scalp made him relax a little more as he heaved a sigh. "I don't know honey. The thing is, it would have been nothing if that kind of news didn't break out. But the fact that it did makes us believe that another major shareholder must be behind it. Either that, or someone who is confident that they can obtain more shares than the Ji family?" 

"Who can that be?" Lanni asked. It was not easy to achieve such a feat. "Is it the Feng family?" 

"I think so too. But my parents are still blinded by the fact that the Feng and Ji families are 'friends' and don't think the Feng family could do this behind our backs." 

"They really need someone to talk to them." 

"That will only work when the Feng family actually takes over the company. The only option now is to get more shares." 

The Ji family currently had forty five percent. They only needed a little over five percent they would still be the biggest shareholders no matter what. Old Master Ji had fifteen, Madam Ji ten, Ji Xiehan ten and Ji Feifei…

"Right, Ji Feifei!" 

Ji Xiehan held a hand over his forehead and cursed. Damn it.
