Early that morning, Xiao Yan came looking for Xiao Han. He had no choice but to get up early; otherwise, who knew where this guy would run off to hide again.
"Who is it?" Hearing the knock outside, Xiao Han, inside the room, sprang up from the bed like a startled bird, then walked to the door and asked warily.
Hearing the movement in the room, Xiao Yan, outside the door, could not help shaking his head with a laugh. It seemed Xiao Yu had hunted this guy rather miserably these past few days.
"It's me," Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"Are you sure you're alone?" Xiao Han did not open the door right away and asked again.
"Alone." Xiao Yan was torn between laughter and tears. This kid.
Only then did the door open.
"You bastard, coming to find me this early scared me to death. I thought that crazy woman Xiao Yu had come knocking again." Xiao Han breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "Why are you looking for me so early?"
"To take you somewhere to hide. Interested in coming along?" Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"Where?" Xiao Han raised an eyebrow and asked.
"To inspect the Xiao Clan Market. My father insists that I learn how to manage the Market. No way around it—I can't get out of it," Xiao Yan said helplessly.
"That works too. Going to the Market is safer than staying in the Xiao Clan, and besides, an inspection sounds pretty impressive." Xiao Han was somewhat tempted. It would be good to go out and get some air.
After a simple wash, Xiao Han and Xiao Yan headed out of the Xiao Clan. Along the way, the former kept looking around like a scout, leaving Xiao Yan caught between laughter
