The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

Chapter 240 - Don't waste my effort

Lanni opened her eyes a few minutes later when she recalled something. She looked out then glanced at Xiehan who was driving. "I need to get something from the supermarket. "

"There's one a few meters ahead." Xiehan responded. When they reached the supermarket, he pulled up into the parking lot.

Lanni opened the car door and before he could too, she leaned towards him and kissed his cheek. "Stay here. I'll be fast." She dashed off before he could respond, so he could only do as she asked and stay in the car.

Lanni hurried to the sanitary goods section and picked what she wanted. When she was done, she grabbed several bars of chocolate on her way to the cashier. Seeing that they were probably too many, she returned most of them and remained with one. She thought about it and in the end, she ended up taking two. One more wouldn't make a difference, right?

She paid for her goods and exited the supermarket. She was just about to go back to Xiehan's car when in her excitement, she bumped into someone.

"I'm so sorry." She apologized quickly, but when she looked up and saw the person she had bumped into, she cringed. "You again?"

"I knew fate would let us meet again, princess." The man was as annoying as ever.

"You disgusting man! Are you stalking me?" Lanni exploded. Even though Flynn was as annoying as a fly, he didn't strike her as the type to stalk people. Wouldn't that be too scary?

Flynn shook his head when he saw her look at him with condensing eyes and probably judging him internally. "Do you think so lowly of me, princess?"

Lanni turned to leave, and he continued speaking. "I admit the first time we met, I had followed you. But at the hospital and right now, I promise, it was a fated coincidence."

"You expect me to believe you." It was not a question but a certain statement, and Lanni laughed aloud when she saw him nod. "What do you take me for, a little girl?"

"Aren't you a little girl though?" He teased, and when he saw that she was really going to leave angrily, he called after her, "Since fate let us meet again, I might as well tell you what I was going to tell you tomorrow." She stopped, and he continued, "of course, if you want me to look for you tomorrow, I don't mind either. I can do that too."

"Tell me what you want to say." Lanni turned stiffly. She didn't want to spend any more time with this weirdo but meeting again was even worse.

Flynn seemed to understand her reasoning, so he chuckled. "Princess, do you think you can actually get rid of me easily?"

Lanni wished she was stronger than him so she could pummel him to death. Was he the devil? If it wasn't because she knew he wanted to say something important, she would have left with a huff.

After having enough of what he was doing—messing with her, he finally spoke. "I have bought you enough time with your dad. I have also created a school that doesn't allow contact from the outside world. The 'school' is in Germany and if your dad does a search, he will find that Luna actually went to that school."

Lanni was flabbergasted. He actually did that? He made it sound so easy but Lanni knew that it wasn't as simple as it sounded. Especially since that so-called school didn't truly exist, it was even harder.

Even so, she was still unsure whether Flynn was a friend or a foe so she queried, "and what's the name of the school?"

"You still doubt me after all I did to help you. Ouch." The man sulked but even then, he took out a copy of a student identity card from the pocket of his pants and gave it to her.

Lanni took a look and she was impressed. It was an actual student identity card and it belonged to Luna. There was even student information and Luna's picture was in the top left corner.

"Galaxis Academy…" Lanni mumbled.

She took out her phone and did a search. A small webpage actually popped up and she looked at Flynn curiously. "Does this school actually exist?"

Flynn grinned. "I take it as you are impressed with my deception skills. Don't sweat it. I'm just good at illusion."

"Oh." Lanni nodded. He was indeed Flynn. Even though he was weird, he had helped her out this time. "Thank you."

"If you really want to thank me, don't waste my efforts." He warned seriously.

"Understood sir." She exaggerated and was about to leave when she heard him mumble, "Nothing is absolute."

Lanni turned sharply as he continued. "The truth can hold a percentage of lies."

Lanni squinted her eyes. She had heard these words somewhere.

"Lies can hold some truth."

"Where did you…"

"Even reality can be an illusion." He interrupted.

Lanni stared at him blankly. Why were those words so familiar? She tried to rack her brains to recall but nothing sane showed up on her mind. "What do you… eh? Where is he?"

Lanni looked around when she didn't see the man. She had just blanked out for a second. Where had he disappeared to?

She glanced around slowly. Considering the short time she had blanked out, he should still be around somewhere. He must have hidden away. However, she was trying to get away from him, not look for him. So she went back to the car instead.

Xiehan glanced at her quizzically and Lanni knew doubtlessly that he had seen them—not that she was trying to hide her meeting with Flynn from him.

Although he didn't ask his question in the end, Lanni knew what he was wondering about so she explained, "he created a fake school in Germany and made it seem like Luna went to that school. That is what he was here to tell me."

"Mmh." Xiehan swallowed a hard lump. As a boyfriend, he was not doing much for his girlfriend. It was instead another man who was doing it.

It wasn't because he didn't want to help, but Lanni didn't like it when he did. She liked doing everything on her own but apparently, someone was breaking the rules.

"Honey, from this moment I am going to help you." He declared with no room for negotiation.

Even so, Lanni had to negotiate. "But my love, I already told you. I don't like it when people do things for me. Well, in this case, I couldn't really manage to create a fake school and my brain was too slow to even think of it. But honey, I can handle it. Trust me."

She knew that if she said it was because she did not want him to bother with her problems when he had his own work to care care of, he would say that he was not too busy for her. That was why she could only use this approach.

Xiehan reached to pat her head. "I know you stubbornly don't want to bother me."

How did he know? She bit her lip.

Xiehan caressed her head and Lanni had to remind him that he was driving. He simply pulled up at the side of the road and looked at her seriously. "Regardless of whether you can do it or not, I am here to help you."

"You…" Lanni couldn't say anything in the end. They would only argue in circles and in the end, he would still help her. Besides, for the coming period, she needed as much help as she could get so she couldn't reject it. She smiled and pecked his lips. "Then I have to thank you in advance my love. If I need help with anything, I will definitely tell you about it."

Xiehan chuckled at her sly way of asking him to stay away unless he was asked to step in. Fine. As long as they managed it in the end.

"I was going to talk to dad when he got more stable and tell him the truth." Lanni started. "However, Flynn has already gone too far. There is no turning back now. And this is a more sane way to handle the situation than risking giving dad another heart attack so I shouldn't waste this chance."

Xiehan turned to glance at her as she continued, "The more Luna stays in jail, the more dangerous it is. We cannot expel the possibility of Li Xiyan trying to end her, so we have to act fast. You said you had a plan… what were you thinking about?"

Xiehan cleared his throat. "Getting someone into your home. We need as much information as possible on Li Xiyan and our mole can get such information."

Lanni nodded. It did seem like something that could work, because planting moles was a bit common. However, "Who can get into our home and escape Li Xiyan's scrutiny? Besides, they would need to stay a while and gain her trust. Actually, I was thinking of something else."

"What?"

"Since I already have the identity and the right, I should go myself."
