Chapter 1543: Chapter 1541: Ye Xin’s Late Return

Yang Chen watched Chen Siyan leave, his gaze falling on Jian Feng.

"Jian Feng, I have a long-term assignment for you!" Yang Chen said to Jian Feng.

"Huh?" Jian Feng looked at Yang Chen, "What long-term assignment?"

Yang Chen took a deep breath and said, "From now on, your mission is to professionally protect Yanyan!"

"Protect Yanyan?" Jian Feng frowned and said, "There are many of our people in the company, all of good quality, do I really need to protect her alone? Besides, Ningchuan is our domain, no one dares to behave wildly here!"

He didn’t want to be confined in Ningchuan, he’d rather follow Yang Chen out on missions.

Yang Chen glared at him, "Now, after this competition, Yanyan is completely in the public eye! She’s become a prime target, the enemy might focus on her as a target! The Yuan Group hasn’t been dealt with yet, how can you ensure Yanyan’s safety? Even I almost got blown up in Ningchuan! The arrogance of these people isn’t something you can control just because you think you can! Until the danger is fully resolved, no one is safe! That’s why I’m assigning you to Yanyan, specifically to protect her! Don’t you want to ensure her safety?"

"Of course I do! But... you’re asking me to be Yanyan’s bodyguard, I’d rather stay by your side for more challenging missions." Jian Feng said, struggling.

Yang Chen was disappointed and frustrated.

If it weren’t for Yanyan having her eyes on him, this guy was destined to a lifetime of loneliness!

Yang Chen was now creating opportunities for him, but he didn’t realize how precious they were!

Yang Chen glared and chastised, "If you can’t even complete this task, what good are you for other tasks? Just stay here obediently! From now on, drive Yanyan to and from work, stay in the company every day to guard her! If Yanyan loses even a hair, I’ll hold you accountable!"

Seeing Yang Chen angry, Jian Feng broke into a cold sweat and nodded repeatedly, "Alright, alright, I understand! I guarantee to complete the mission!"

Yang Chen nodded slightly, stood up, and patted Jian Feng’s shoulder, "Work hard! If you run out of money, ask Yanyan to pay your salary!"

Upon hearing this, Jian Feng’s face immediately turned gloomy.

Living off a woman, isn’t that like being a freeloader?

He didn’t want to be a freeloader!

Not only Jian Feng, but estimated all of them didn’t want to be freeloaders. People from the battlefield, who doesn’t have a bit of male chauvinism?

Yang Chen understood what Jian Feng was thinking, chuckled, and went inside to rest.

Back in the room, Yang Chen didn’t immediately rest; he was still worried about Ye Xin.

It was already this late and Ye Xin hadn’t returned.

Yang Chen didn’t know what she was doing.

Yang Chen could only worry and wait here.

Around four o’clock in the morning, Yang Chen heard the sound of the door opening.

Immediately, Yang Chen pushed open the room door.

Coming out, Yang Chen saw Ye Xin’s dirty appearance, even stained with blood.

Yang Chen was startled and immediately went up to inquire, "What’s going on?"

Ye Xin smiled slightly at Yang Chen and said, "Don’t worry, it’s nothing! I’ll take a shower first, change clothes, and tell you later!"

Though worried, seeing Ye Xin’s appearance, Yang Chen still nodded.

Ye Xin went up to freshen up.

Jian Feng poked his head out from the corner room on the first floor, called out, "Boss..."

Yang Chen glared at him, "It’s none of your business, go back to sleep!"

Jian Feng was frightened and quickly retracted his neck, hurriedly closing his room door.

Yang Chen waited on the sofa.

He didn’t turn on the lights.

Immersed in darkness.

Terribly quiet!

In this silence, the air was chilly, a sense of killing intent was lingering.

Yang Chen’s slightly squinting eyes glimmered with cold light.

He had lost Ye Xin once.

So he absolutely wouldn’t allow any more accidents!

In the darkness, it was as if a flame was burning brightly in Yang Chen’s heart.

Before long, Ye Xin came downstairs with wet hair and said to Yang Chen, "You won’t tell me you haven’t slept all night, right?"

"Do you think I could sleep?" Yang Chen’s voice was cold.

Ye Xin couldn’t help but find it amusing and approached, "Guess what I’ve been doing?"

Feeling Ye Xin’s scent after her shower, Yang Chen’s mood eased a little.

"I don’t know, I don’t want to guess, you tell me!" Yang Chen said coldly.

Ye Xin pouted slightly, looking at Yang Chen, "I’m just making you guess!"

Seeing Ye Xin’s girly demeanor, Yang Chen’s heart softened a bit more.

"You went on a mission?" Yang Chen’s tone eased a lot.

"Then guess what mission it was!" Ye Xin got even closer to Yang Chen, her body almost touching his.

Having just showered, Yang Chen could even feel some softness.

Yang Chen was somewhat distracted.

"I don’t know..." Yang Chen was a little parched.

Ye Xin chuckled and said, "You can definitely guess!"

With that, Ye Xin got up and sat aside, continuing to dry her hair.

Yang Chen thought for a moment, his eyes suddenly brightened.

He looked at Ye Xin, "Could it be, you went to the backup unit..."

"Bingo! You’re right!" Ye Xin chuckled and said.

Yang Chen looked at Ye Xin in surprise, "You didn’t need to take action yourself, you could’ve told me, I’d have taken people to deal with them!"

Ye Xin shook her head, "That wouldn’t do! You guys are so careless, what if they have emergency buttons or something, and you don’t notice it, and we can’t stop it in time, what then! Besides, these people in my hands are like small ants, easy to handle, why let you come and take the credit!"

"It’s not about claiming credit! It’s just the situation we’re dealing with! Should enemies also be split by who belongs to whom? You can’t take such risks! What if something goes wrong? These people are very dangerous! We have to be cautious!" Yang Chen said angrily.

Ye Xin pouted, "What danger is there, I told you, dealing with them is like dealing with little ants, nothing could be simpler!"

"Simple?" Yang Chen laughed in anger, glaring at Ye Xin, "Anyone holding a weapon isn’t simple, nor are they safe! Even a child holding a knife can hurt people, let alone these trained professionals!"

"Besides! Blades and swords have no eyes! How do you know you’ll dodge everything? What if there’s a miscalculation? What if there’s a stray bullet... Do you know? I saw my brother fall in front of me! It wasn’t because we couldn’t deal with the enemy, but because blades and swords have no eyes! A stray bullet came over, and none of us noticed!" Yang Chen said solemnly to Ye Xin.

Ye Xin remained silent.

She had experienced the battlefield, and understood the scenario Yang Chen spoke of.

She also knew Yang Chen was worried about her.

But the excuses she had prepared couldn’t come out in front of Yang Chen.
