Thinking this, she cleared her throat and suddenly spoke up.
"Young Master Yan..."
When the Lan Family fell into trouble, she was still a young girl. From that moment on, she stopped talking in front of him.
So many years had passed; her voice no longer resembled her girlish tones of the past. Yan Cheng had never heard her voice after it changed over the years.
Furthermore, since she deliberately altered her voice, the voice she used now was entirely different from the voice of the past Lan Xu.
...
Sure enough, as soon as her voice sounded, Yan Cheng's movements froze for a moment.
The next second, he abruptly let go of her hand.
Lan Xu withdrew her hand, standing properly beside the bed.
Yan Cheng sat up as well and turned on the lamp in the room with a raised hand.
The moment he saw the woman's appearance, his enchanting expression turned pale.
"How could it be..."
