There was a hint of murderous intent in Qin Lu’s expression.

In his heart, he was secretly plotting to remove these two obstacles from his journey to win over his wife.

But it could only remain a thought.

Bai Chen and Shen Junqing were not quite satisfied with Nan Yan’s answer. The two of them, with an unspoken understanding, simultaneously asked:

“Then, who do you miss the most?”

“Little Yanyan, who do you miss the most?”

As their voices fell simultaneously, Bai Chen and Shen Junqing exchanged a glance before both averting their eyes in a somewhat awkward manner.

Meanwhile, Nan Yan’s gaze shifted back and forth between the two.

“Are you two having a quarrel?” she asked.

It didn’t make sense, as her third brother and Bai Chen were not particularly petty individuals.

What could have caused any conflict between them?

“No!” they both responded at the same time, and this time, even Qin Lu and Xing Jia felt that something was off between the two.

“Little Yanyan, weren’t we planning to go to Merck? If you have nothing else to attend to, shall we head over there now?” Bai Chen swiftly changed the subject, hoping to divert her attention.

Why would he and Shen Junqing quarrel?

They weren’t that close anyway.

The incident from yesterday was a bit embarrassing, and he didn’t want to engage with Shen Junqing any further.

Shouldn’t it be him who should be asking that question?

This guy was a real pervert.

Nan Yan had no idea what had transpired between them, but seeing that neither of them wanted to discuss the topic any further, she tactfully refrained from asking.

The group switched to another car and headed to the Merck Biopharmaceutical Company.

Marcus knew in advance that they were coming and had been waiting in his office.

Using a discreet internal entrance, Nan Yan entered a code on the smart lock and led them through an internal passage to her office.

She hadn’t been back for several months, but everything inside remained unchanged.

Seeing the familiar surroundings, Nan Yan’s eyes darkened slightly.

Shen Junqing glanced around the office and asked thoughtfully, “Yanyan, you seem quite familiar with this place!”

“Yeah,” she said.

Nan Yan asked them to wait for her while she retrieved some items she needed from her office’s safe.

Moments after Nan Yan left, Qin Lu informed the others that he was going out for a smoke and would return shortly….
