The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

Lanni rushed to a restaurant that was close to her home and chose a seat. She shoved the USB into the file and placed it on the table, then went to the washroom. 

After checking that no one else was in, she took out her phone and dialled Li Xiyan's number. "The items are on table 2C, Plum Restaurant. Have someone pick it up as soon as you can, or do not blame me if someone else sees it." She hung up immediately after finishing her statement. 

"I should have video called so I would see Li Xiyan's face." She chuckled. 

Knowing that Li Xiyan had people who were currently in B City and may be close by, she hurried out of the restaurant and back home in the shortest time she could. 

When she got back home, Luna was still in the same position she had left her in, still puzzled by her decision to return their hard-earned evidence to Li Xiyan. 

"You really gave it to her?" Luna asked. 

"Yes. Now she and I have nothing to do with each other." 

"What's your plan?" Luna asked, knowing that Lanni wouldn't be so irrational. 

"Watch it." Lanni smirked playfully and sat on Luna's bed. She took out her phone and called Lin Jian. 

"If you and your man keep calling me at times you shouldn't, you will owe me." Came the ramble of dissatisfaction. 

"Oh? And when exactly shouldn't I call you?" Lanni laughed, guessing what he meant. She must have interrupted his 'fun'.

Lin Jian complained for two whole minutes before Lanni interrupted with a taunt. "The more you talk, the longer you keep your beauty waiting. Do you know that?" 

"Fine. What do you want? It better be something important." 

"Since you are so busy having fun, let's meet up tomorrow at 12pm. I will send you the location." 

"Sure." Lin Jian hung up. 

Because Lanni called Lin Jian, Luna somewhat understood what they were planning. "You want to use the media to expose her crimes? Don't you think that move is a little…shallow?" 

Lanni sat back next to her and patted her back. "Relax, I will never let Li Xiyan go after what she did to our family. We have plans that will ensure nothing goes wrong." 

"Okay." Luna smiled. Since they had planned it out, it had to be good enough. 

"You should rest for a while. I will have a chat with Xiehan." Lanni stood to leave. 

"But you haven't eaten yet. We spared some food for you." Luna reminded. 

"I'll grab something to eat. You need to rest, okay?" 

Luna furrowed her brows. "Is there something you want to tell me?" 

Lanni bit her lower lip slightly. "There is indeed something…" 

"I'm all ears." Luna sat up straight.

"Don't be so serious. It's not like some bombshell or something." Lanni laughed at how tensed her sister suddenly looked. "It's just that before we take the final step of dealing with Li Xiyan, there is something we should do." 

"And what is that?" 

"Have some rest first. We can do it tomorrow in the morning before we go to meet the others." 

Because Luna was indeed tired, she took a nap for the rest of the afternoon.

The next morning, outside the hospital.

"Lanni, are you out of your mind? Why are we at the hospital?" 

Luna didn't even need to wait for an answer from Lanni. The latter must have brought her to visit their dad.

Who would have thought that the so called thing they were yet to do involved their father? "I will go and talk to him when Li Xiyan is taken care of. Otherwise, I don't know how to face him now. I might end up letting the truth slip out of my mouth." 

"That is exactly why we should go to see him today." Lanni unfastened her seatbelt and opened the car door. She stepped out and waited for Luna, who reluctantly followed her out. "Luna, our dad is Li Xiyan's husband after all. Even if they don't love each other, they are still a married couple. Don't you think we should let him know what his wife did that is making us go against her? We hope that she doesn't ever regain freedom after all." 

Luna took in a deep breath. "You do have a point. Besides, I missed him too much so let's go and see him." 

Lanni patted her back to reasssure her when she understood why Luna still seemed to be scared. "We will prepare him psychologically before breaking the news so he doesn't suffer a shock. Besides, if we don't tell him and he watches the news later when Lin Media Group exposes her, he would be even more shocked." 

"Then you break the news to him." Luna threw the ball back to Lanni. She couldn't trust her own ability to tell such news to anyone—and the last thing she wanted was to send Xia Hanchen back to coma. 

"Sure, I will." 

Hence, they made their way to Xia Hanchen's ward. 

The doctor was just done with his daily check and Xia Hanchen had slept throughout the previous night, so he let them go in to see her. 

Lanni walked in first with a bright smile. "Dad." 

Xia Hanchen looked up and when he saw his little cupcake, he brightened up. "You finally missed your daddy. I thought you wouldn't come to see me anymore." 

Lanni walked over to his side and hugged him. "I'm sorry dad. I had a lot going on these few days. But here I am now, and Luna here too!" 

"Luna?" Xia Hanchen was so excited that he would have leapt off the bed if Lanni didn't quickly stop him. 

Luna walked over, still smiling from the sweet scene she had just witnessed. This was what she had been dreaming off ever since she met Lanni again—a family reunion. She almost couldn't stop her eyes from tearing up as she walked over to Xia Hanchen's side. 

"My little muffin." Xia Hanchen pulled Luna in for a hug.

"Pfft. Does dad have a thing for desserts?" Lanni chuckled lightly when she realized that his nicknames for them were both desserts. 

When Luna broke the hug, she whispered at her side, "You have no idea. I asked Aunty why dad keeps calling me 'muffin' and she said that our mum used to make him such delicious desserts. When he missed her in the past,hee would bake some for himself and eat with a forlorn expression." 

"Oh…" Lanni felt bad. He obviously loved Li Yuming so much. However, it was too bad that Li Yuming obviously hated him. 

"What are the two of you whispering there? Don't think I can't see you." Xia Hanchen was curious when he saw Lanni's expression suddenly change. 

"Uh…" Luna didn't know what to say. 

Xia Hanchen looked at her and recalled something. "You came back from Germany already? Don't tell me you quit your class." 

"Germany… uh…" Luna scratched her head. The night before, Lanni had casually mentioned how, for the sake of buying time, Flynn had told Xia Hanchen that she had enrolled into a school in Germany, one that did not allow any contact with the outside world until one completed their course. 

She had even shown her the fake student ID and Luna knew that there couldn't be any slip ups. However, if she went along with the lie, the matter they were about to tell him regarding Li Xiyan would not make sense. She peeked at Lanni and when she saw the latter giving her a go-ahead nod, she tried decided to come out with it. "Dad, the truth is that I was not… I was not in Germany." 

Silence befell the room. Xia Hanchen did not utter a word for a long time. Just when the girls were starting to worry that he was mad at them, he finally spoke. "I know." 

"You knew?" They were both surprised. 

Xia Hanchen looked at them smugly. "I am your father, both of you. Did you really think you could fool me?" He looked at Lanni and reminded, "When you first came to see me, you were wearing your sister's clothes. Wasn't it so I would think that you were her?" 

Lanni hugged him emotionally. Indeed, he was their real father. He recognized them accurately when even their boyfriends could mistake them for each other. 

"Is there something you need to explain?" Xia Hanchen finally asked. 

Because it was easier now, Luna told him everything that had happened recently. Of course, she made it sound milder than the situation actually was. But that did not change the gravity of what Li Xiyan had done. 

When he was done hearing, Xia Hanchen's eyes darkened. "I agree. It's about the right time for her to be taught a lesson. I will come with you." 

"Huh? Dad what are you saying? You still need to recover." Lanni quickly tried to talk him out of it. 

"Lanni and I can handle it. Besides, our friends have teamed up with us." Luna seconded. 

Even so, Xia Hanchen did not change his mind, becoming more set on it instead. "That woman put me in this state. How can I not be there when she is taught a lesson?"
