She was at a sudden loss for what to do, and so was Fang Erlan.

She froze in shock. Her assistant, Xiao Yue, had no idea what to say either. She felt that Xiao Chenyang had changed his mind all of a sudden.

Yu Caiwei asked, “How does two million dollars a month sound? Fang Erlan probably pays you tens of thousands per month, at the very most. Are you happy with the price I’ve offered?”

“Mhm, it’s not bad. I’m very satisfied with the price…”

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Erlan frantically said, “I disagree!”

“Didn’t you say that you’d have no objections as long as I agree to it?” Xiao Chenyang asked with a look of tenderness and a hidden joy beneath his eyes.

Fang Erlan spluttered, “But… but… you can go to anyone except her.”

“Why? Why can I go to anyone except her?” Xiao Chenyang asked.

“You clearly know the reason and yet you’re still asking me,” said Fang Erlan, who felt extremely frustrated. She had no idea what was eating him.

“I don’t know.”

“You…” Fang Erlan was at a loss for words and she had no idea how to rebut.

He said, “I’m not going anywhere, I’ll stay by your side. I was just teasing you.”

As soon as he said those words, Fang Erlan actually teared up and she said nonchalantly, “You’re senseless.”

Yu Caiwei could tell how much Xiao Chenyang doted on Fang Erlan just from what he said. At this moment, she actually felt that Xiao Chenyang was a great catch.

She stood up and walked toward Fang Erlan before whispering into her ear, “Fang Erlan, he’s not your cousin and yet he’s willing to stay by your side. He’s not even tempted by the high amount of money I’m offering him. Why do you think he’s doing that? You really don’t know how blessed you are.”

Having said her piece, Yu Caiwei left.

Fang Erlan shifted her gaze onto Xiao Chenyang, who was not looking at her. Thus, she decided to steal a few more glances at him.

“Ms. Fang.”

“Hello, Auntie.”

Mrs. Yan looked at her while smiling and said, “Come to my son’s car later. I have something to say to you.”

“Okay.”

Fang Erlan knew that Yan Ge had already told his mother about their relationship and that Mrs. Yan must have looked her up with the main intention of talking to her about it.

She arrived to see that Mrs. Yan was alone in the car, just like she had expected.

“Auntie.” After closing the door, she asked, “What’s the matter?”

“My son told me about your relationship with him a few days ago. To be honest, I’ve been observing you for the past few days. I also remember you telling me that your bodyguard was your cousin, isn’t that right?”

Fang Erlan was at a sudden loss for an answer. “Did Senior Yan Ge tell you about it…?”

“Since he’s not your cousin, why did you have to lie about it in the first place?”

“I’m afraid that others might get the wrong idea.”

Mrs. Yan said solemnly, “Get the wrong idea about what? What’s wrong with him being your bodyguard? This is a serious problem. You really shouldn’t have lied. Not to mention, your bodyguard is so handsome. It won’t be safe to keep him around you all day. Replace him.”

Fang Erlan answered, “Auntie, how can I just replace him when he hasn’t committed any mistakes?”

She could not find an excuse to turn Mrs. Yan down.

“He’s just a bodyguard, what’s so difficult about replacing him? I’m doing this for your own good too,” said a puzzled Mrs. Yan.

“Auntie, I really can’t replace him, unless he decides to resign out of his own accord.”

“That doesn’t make any sense at all. Why can’t an employer sack an employee? Or do you just not want to sack him at all?” Mrs. Yan asked apprehensively.

Fang Erlan remained silent.

It wasn’t up to her to decide anyway.

“Forget it, let’s drop the subject since you can’t give him the sack. What do your parents do for a living?”

“My parents are regular working-class citizens.”

“How much do they earn per month?”

Fang Erlan answered, “My father earns three thousand dollars a month while my mother earns two thousand.”

“Do you have any siblings?”

“I have a younger brother who’s 17 years old this year.”

Mrs. Yan’s forehead creased into a frown the moment she heard her answer. “How’s your relationship with your parents?”

“So-so. I was raised by my grandmother.”

“Your grandmother?”

“Yes, she had already passed away.”

“Does that mean you’re not close with your parents?”

“We’re fine.”

“If you’re not close with your parents who gave birth to you, I doubt you’ll be close to me and my husband if you end up marrying my son. I’d need you to serve us when we’re older. I really wonder if by then…”

Isn’t she getting way too ahead of herself? Fang Erlan thought. She answered, “If I marry Yan Ge in the future, I’ll definitely treat you two like my own parents and be filial to you.”

“I really hope you’ll honor your promise in the future. Well, in conclusion, my impression of you is still alright for now. Although you come from a humble family, I won’t be nosy since my son is willing to date you.”

Fang Erlan heaved a sigh of relief.

A few days later, Jin Qingyan was discharged from the hospital and he returned home to recuperate.

The wound on An Xiaoning’s shoulder had also healed greatly after a few days of being on the drip and taking her medication.

Yu Yiwei was planning to send the medicine that she had prepared to Jin Qingyan, who was upstairs. Just as she was about to enter the room whose door had been left ajar, she stopped in her tracks the moment she heard their conversation.

“There are barely any descendants left of the Yin family…”

“What do you plan to do?”

“So far, there are still no news of Yin Cun. Do you think I should…” An Xiaoning did not complete her sentence, for she felt that Jin Qingyan would probably understand what she wanted to say.

Yu Yiwei’s heart tensed up, and she clenched her fist tightly.

She paused for a moment before entering.

“After making some calculations, I realized that after today, you’d be running out of the pills that I had given you previously. This is the latest medication that I’ve just prepared. The dosage is the same as the previous course.”

Jin Qingyan grabbed the pills and said, “Okay, but there hasn’t been much of an effect after I took those pills.”

“You’ll need to take them consistently for a long time. Continue taking them for another week and we’ll see how it goes,” said Yu Yiwei, who left right after handing him the pills.

She headed to the mahjong den again with the bodyguards, after which she made her way to Xihou Jiaping’s nightclub via the secret passageway.

Xihou Jiaping had been lying low for the past few days due to the fact that his wounds had yet to heal.

“When are you going to take action?” she questioned.

“Are you trying to rush me?”

Yu Yiwei answered impatiently, “Of course. They’re trying to lure me out now, and they’re even thinking of harming the Yin family. How could I possibly sit back and do nothing? Like what you had mentioned, Xihou Ling has definitely gotten some help from Xiao Chenyang. He’s no longer that easy to get rid off now. I’m afraid that it would be more difficult to deal with Xihou Ling if we wait until he recovers fully. You keep wanting me to take action instead, but that can only happen if I get the chance to. All I can do now is drug him and wait patiently for the effects to show. There are no other chances. An Xiaoning is almost always beside him.”

“I’m just afraid that our plans will backfire. Your plan does seem feasible and easy to carry out on the surface. However, I gave it some thought and realized that it’s too risky,” said Xihou Jiaping.
