Chapter 835 Suspicion
Junyi frowned slightly.
Lin Tan and Qin Mo?
"Not only that, I also heard that Yu Peiyun doesn't approve of Qin Mo and Lin Tan's relationship, and she even went to see Lin Tan several times because of it." Xie Chang'an's tone was rather heavy when he said this. "And Lin Tan was personally delivered to Qin Jiangye's company by Qin Mo."
"What are you trying to say?" Junyi wasn't stupid; anyone could tell from her roundabout way of speaking that there was a hidden meaning.
"Is it possible that we are just a backer that Qin Mo wants to find for Lin Tan?" Xie Chang'an said seriously, with a more solemn tone than usual, "to use us to deal with his mother."
"And then?" Junyi asked.
"Qin Mo is using us," Xie Chang'an said.
"Even if your guess is true, what does that have to do with Lin Tan?" Junyi likes Lin Tan very much now, especially after today's incident at Qin Jiangye's company.
"What if they're in cahoots?" Xie Chang'an didn't want to admit that he was being used by others. "Don't forget, Qin Jiangye brought Lin Tan here when we first met."
"Leaving Qin Mo aside for now, if Lin Tan really wanted to get anything from me, she could have told me about her abuse when I asked her about her family today," Junyi said. "But she didn't. She only mentioned the interesting and fun things."
Xie Chang'an: "?"
Xie Chang'an: "Then how do you know she was abused?"
Junyi: "Qin Jiangye said it."
Xie Chang'an: "Couldn't they just be putting on an act?"
Junyi: "Lin Tan was somewhat surprised when she heard Qin Jiangye say that."
Xie Chang'an reminded her, "Don't forget that Lin Tan is an actress."
Seeing that he kept refuting him, Junyi calmly said, "Are you doubting my judgment?"
Xie Chang'an swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue: "I wouldn't dare."
Junyi glanced at him.
I ignored it.
“But I still think there’s something wrong with her.” Xie Chang’an’s suspicions were not something that could be resolved in a short time. “Have you ever seen someone who looks so much like you? Even the mole on your earlobe is in the same place.”
“This shows that we are destined to be together,” Junyi said.
"You really like her that much?" Xie Chang'an looked at her suspiciously.
They've only met two or three times, yet he's so protective of her.
"Yes." Junyi originally just admired him, but now she insisted on having a relationship and connection with Lin Tan.
Xie Chang'an frowned deeply.
"If you don't like her, then don't associate with her. Pretend you don't know her. But you should also stay out of my business with her." Junyi made it clear that she didn't want to cause Lin Tan any unnecessary trouble because of herself.
Xie Chang'an hesitated, but ultimately swallowed his words.
In the time that followed.
Junyi has been using the herbal sachets that Lin Tan gave her. After using them, she has experienced less insomnia, sleeps more soundly, and her anxiety and worry have also decreased significantly.
Seeing her like this, Xie Chang'an's suspicions about Lin Tan lessened unconsciously, and he had an idea in his mind: regardless of whether Lin Tan had ulterior motives towards their family.
Just because she prepared an effective calming herbal pack for Junyi, he should treat her better.
After all, she solved the problem he couldn't solve.
In the time that followed.
Madam Jun would occasionally visit Lin Tan for a chat or afternoon tea.
As they spent more time together, their relationship grew stronger. Lin Tan grew to like this Mrs. Jun more and more, who was like a mother to her, while Jun Yi gradually began to regard Lin Tan as her goddaughter.
Two weeks have passed.
They became very close.
No.
Junyi took her out for afternoon tea.
While waiting, Junyi looked at her face, which resembled her own, and asked, "Did you have this red mole since you were little, or did it grow on you later?"
"I grew them when I was five or six years old," Lin Tan replied. "I didn't have them before I was five or six."
Junyi paused.
The look in his eyes was even more complicated.
Hers also grew up at five or six years old, as did Xie Yi.
"Tan'er".
"Um?"
"You must be a gift from God to me." Junyi smiled gently, "You made my dream of having a daughter come true."
If October were still here.
You should be like her.
The only difference is that they will grow up in their parents' pampering.
"You are also a gift from God to me, letting me know what it feels like to have a mother." Lin Tan was telling the truth; after two weeks, they were already quite familiar with each other.
My original plan was to return the gift and then visit the Xie family as little as possible.
But to her surprise, instead of going to the Xie family, Madam Jun came looking for her.
"Are you free this weekend?" Junyi wanted to spend time with her. "A new batch of fresh ingredients just arrived at our house. I'll cook seafood for you then."
"I'm afraid I won't be free this weekend."
"What about Friday? Or next Monday?"
"I won't have much free time for the next few months," Lin Tan said with mixed emotions. "The crew starts filming the day after tomorrow, and we have to go there tomorrow."
"I see." A hint of regret flashed in Junyi's eyes.
"I'll treat you to dinner when I get back from filming," Lin Tan said proactively, not wanting to see any unhappiness or complicated feelings on her face.
Junyi agreed: "Okay."
The two chatted for a while longer before finishing their afternoon tea and leaving separately.
Before we knew it, it was the next day.
Lin Tan, Xiao Feng, and Yun Ting set off to film a movie.
They arrived that afternoon.
After helping her put her things away, Xiao Feng went back to her own room.
A few seconds after they left, there was a knock on Lin Tan's door. When she opened it, she was met with Huo Sinian's face.
That instant.
Lin Tan's hand gripping the doorknob instantly turned cold.
Without thinking, she instinctively closed the door.
Huo Sinian stopped him in time and went inside.
Lin Tan took out her phone, intending to call Yun Ting and the others. Because of what happened last time and at the airport, she was very wary of Huo Sinian. If it happened again, she wouldn't be able to run into the director again.
"I'll just come in and sit for a bit." Huo Sinian opened the door even faster and casually sat down on the sofa. "I also want to check on Teacher Lin Tan's injuries."
Lin Tan looked at the wide-open door but ultimately did not press the dial button.
"How was your rest this past month?" Huo Sinian crossed his legs, wearing a new pair of silver-rimmed glasses, still looking refined and elegant.
Lin Tan did not answer.
I don't want to say a word to him.
"Does Teacher Lin Tan want me to try a different approach before she'll chat with me?" Huo Sinian raised an eyebrow slightly and asked casually.
"It's fine," Lin Tan replied casually.
Huo Sinian looked at her face and said, "In my opinion, it is indeed a good thing, after all, it has established a connection with the Xie family."
Lin Tan was startled.
He hadn't expected that he would be spying on him.
"That Madam Jun looks quite like you," Huo Sinian said unhurriedly. "Are you trying to get on her good side to give yourself an extra layer of protection?"
Lin Tan: "You're overthinking it."
Huo Sinian: "I hope so."
Lin Tan gave him the order to leave: "If there's nothing else, please leave now. I have other things to do."
"Lin Tan." Huo Sinian spoke softly, calling her name.
The tone was the same as always, but it struck her like a heavy blow, making her feel flustered and filled with worry and unease.
"If you don't want to drag innocent people into this, then stop trying to build connections." Huo Sinian said this while looking into her eyes, his tone as gentle as ever. "It wouldn't be good if someone got hurt by accident."
