The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

"What are you aiming for?" Asked Lin, wondering if there was anything else she could do to help.

"I want to know what exact weapons and who he is dealing with." Lanni responded and started the car to drive off before the man could realize that he had been tricked by her. The manager could simply claim that the woman he had seen before had made a mistake and was fired, since he didn't know about her either.

" Where are we going now?" Lin asked.

Lanni thought about it and decided that it was too late to look for Lin Jian. "I'll drop you off and look for my sister."

Lin knew that Lanni would be insistent if she rejected the ride, knowing that the latter would not want her to go home on her own so late at night. She could only nod and give her address.

When she arrived, she was flabbergasted to find a man at her doorstep.

"What are you doing here?" She turned and was relieved to find that Lanni had left the place.

Lin Jian waited for her to open the door and when she did, he entered the house like it belonged to him and welcomed himself onto a couch with a slight laugh. "You are less hospitable."

Lin nervously stood by the door, ready to bolt out in case Lin Jian was up to something she was not ready for.

Noticing her demeanor, he chuckled. "Don't worry. I only want to ask you what Lanni has managed to accomplish. Sit down and tell me."

Lin was unsure whether or not to trust him. What kind of man would appear in front of a woman's house like he did, and still expect her to believe that he was not up to anything harmful to her?

Lin Jian noticed her nervousness and aside from being funny, it irritated him to some level. "I already have a woman now. I want nothing to do with other women." He tried to rush her so he would leave as fast as possible and go home to sleep, and probably give Ruby a call since he missed her so much.

"She put a bug on the man. I still do not know what his name is, but he is the same man that was captured in the same frame as Qiao Linyou the last time." Lin explained nervously, still not making any step into the house in fear.

"I got it. Will you step away from the door now? I still need to leave." Lin Jian instructed and when the woman recoiled into the house, he chuckled and left.

…

Meanwhile, Lanni went to the Jiang Mansion where Luna had called her.

When she arrived, Luna went to greet her fondly. "Lanni, come in. We need to talk."

"What do you need to talk about?" It wasn't often that Luna used such words, so Lanni was curious about it.

"I just wanted to see you." Luna hugged her emotionally. She was becoming more and more emotional by the day.

Lanni hugged her back. "I missed you so much."

The two women sat on the living room couches, and a maid brought them drinks; juice for Lanni and a glass of warm milk for Luna.

"How have you been? You have changed so much." Lanni observed. It was not just about her belly, the aura around her had changed a lot too. She seemed more friendly and warmth radiated off her.

Luna was aware of these changes too, and she smiled. "I guess it's what happens when one becomes a mother. Many things change about you, it's the beauty of motherhood."

"I have no choice but to agree to that. You are so beautiful." Lanni commented. Sometimes she wondered what it would be like to be a mother but then again, she didn't think she was ready for it yet. "How are Aunty and Uncle? They're not home tonight?"

"They went outstation." Luna smiled and took a sip of her warm milk. "Xingyu had to work overtime today but he will be home soon."

"Is he treating you well?" She asked. It wasn't because she didn't trust Xingyu, but because she wanted to make sure that her sister was happy.

"I couldn't ever ask for anything else. He loves me so much. And our wedding day is approaching too… I feel so happy."

Lanni hugged her sister, who returned the hug and suddenly pulled away when the babies kicked again.

"Ow! Your nephews or nieces seem to be having a lot of fun in here. Perhaps they know of their aunt's visit and are overjoyed about it." She chuckled, and they both burst into laughter.

"How is Xiehan treating you?" Luna asked. "Is he still as loving as he used to be?"

"He is even more loving." Lanni sighed, her expression changing into a sad one.

"Sis, what happened?" Luna asked in concern.

"He is leaving soon. I feel like I miss him already." Lanni sipped on her juice and looked helpless.

"The days will fly before you know it." Luna coaxed her using the words that she had been told by many people already.

"Besides, I will be there for you. My babies and I will bug you so many times every day that you will not think of Xiehan for a single day." Luna laughed.

Lanni chuckled when she thought about it. "If your babies are as naughty as you are, yup, I will not think about Xiehan and he will return before I know it."

"Hey, who is naughty? You are the naughty one!" Luna slapped her playfully.

"I have to go home now. I'm handling a case, see you tomorrow, Luna." Lanni stood to say her goodbyes.

"Aw, what a bummer. But the babies wnat to stay with their aunty a little more." Luna felt bummed that Lanni had to leave.

"I'm so sorry. I want to stay longer too." Lanni was so helpless that she almost decided to stay. If it wasn't because she had to look out for whatever videos the bugs would record, she would have stayed the night.

"Hey, how about you come with me to my apartment? You can stay over and we will have more time to spend together once I have finished up what I have to do." Lanni suggested, to which Luna sighed helplessly.

"I wish I could do that. However, a certain someone will go crazy with wanting to say hello to his babies." She stated her reason, and Lanni blushed when she understood her double meaning.

"What case are you talking about anyway?" She asked, ready to help if there was anything she could do to make it easier for Lanni.

"Nope. You cannot take part in this. You have to stay peacefully at home and take care of yourself." Lanni said strictly with no room for negotiation, and Luna could only feel bummed.

"But I want to help out too. I'm not as delicate as you think. Besides, I will do what I have to while sitting on my desk and won't move around to do dangerous things." She tried to convince Lanni, but that only earned her a resounding no.

"You meanie." She complained but could only bite her tongue and feel wronged.

When Lanni returned to her apartment, she quickly took a bath before sitting in front of her desk to find out what the bugs had recorded. At first, it was only a few snippets of things that did not even make much sense, which Lanni so badly wanted to get off her screen. However, she knew that doing so might make her miss out on something important, so she could only continue watching the torturous video.

Luckily, the idiot did not do anything obscene or x-rated. She thought, and as if on cue, one of the voluprous women who were with him slid a hand down his chest and grabbed his manhood through his trousers.

"Urgh, I jinxed it." Lanni cursed, disgusted by their actions. But then again, it was she who had placed a bug on someone and captured the actions that they did in secret. They didn't do it in public. Besides, the man was known for his debauchery, so she should have expected such a thing from him.

However, the videos rolled out and the man didn't do anything suspicious. It was getting on her nerves. Bugging him again would be much harder than it had been the first time as the man would be more wary of her the next time.

Just as she wondered whether or not to give up and try to bug him again, someone else entered the VIP room.

It was a man, and it made her eyes narrow. Wasn't this Xia Yuguang, her uncle? What was he doing here?
