Chapter 1443: Chapter 1460: Let’s Relax Together

However, when he got closer and saw that the people beside her were Mrs. Nangong and Liang Yuzhu, Qin Yi couldn’t help but be stunned.

"Mrs... Mrs. Nangong? Miss Yuzhu?"

"Qin Yi, you seem to have lost weight? But you’re still quite strong!" Mrs. Nangong saw Qin Yi and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Although Qin Yi was Nangong Yaoling’s bodyguard and had been with the Nangong Family for many years, the Nangong Family treated him as one of their own and never put on airs.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yi couldn’t help but smile shyly.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mrs. Nangong! It’s just... when did you come back? Does Young Master know?"

"I just got off the plane this morning. I went to see Grandpa right after landing, then came to see Zhong Li, and haven’t had the chance to tell him yet."

Something flashed in Qin Yi’s eyes, but he just said, "Madam, you should rest well after just getting off the plane."

"Hmm." Mrs. Nangong reached out and rubbed her forehead, "Now that you mention it, I do feel a bit tired."

After speaking, she looked at Qin Yi and said, "I heard that you’ve been taking care of Zhong Li during this time? Seeing how well you take care of Zhong Li, I am relieved."

Hearing this, Qin Yi’s cheeks turned slightly red.

"Madam, you exaggerate. Qin Yi... is a servant of the Nangong Family. Taking care of Miss Zhong Li is what Qin Yi should do."

Beside them, Nangong Zhongli also had a trace of embarrassment flash across her face and tugged at Mrs. Nangong’s hand.

Mrs. Nangong took in the expressions on both their faces, but she just smiled without showing any sign, "Hmm, you should know that Ling’er and we have never considered you a servant."

Seeing Qin Yi about to speak, Mrs. Nangong knew he was about to say something humble and courteous, so she quickly interrupted him, "Alright, since you’re here, I’ll leave Zhong Li to you. I’m tired, and I’ll have Yuzhu accompany me back to rest."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yi hurriedly nodded respectfully.

"Madam, why don’t I see you off?"

"No need, my driver is outside."

"Auntie, are you leaving already?" Nangong Zhongli asked reluctantly.

Lan Jinqin quickly patted her shoulder and smiled, "Alright, with Qin Yi here with you, I’m at ease. I’ll come see you another day."

Nangong Zhongli glanced at Qin Yi, her face slightly flushed.

"Auntie..."

Liang Yuzhu waved at Nangong Zhongli from the side, "Qin Yi, you must take good care of Zhong Li!"

Qin Yi nodded at Liang Yuzhu, but there was a subtle somberness in his eyes that was hard to detect.

These days, Xiaonuan felt restless every day.

Although Nangong Jinlie was fine, and he hadn’t sought her out again, whenever she thought of that matter, she felt a bit uneasy.

Therefore, to stop herself from overthinking, she actively threw herself into work every day, only in busyness could she forget her worries.

That day, the crew had just finished shooting a set of photos. After Xiaonuan packed up her things, only Gu Xicheng, the crew’s makeup artist Sister Li, the partner she had a good relationship with, He Yuanyuan, and two other actors were left by her side.

They all walked out of the studio together, and one of the guys said, "Finally, we’re completely done. By the way, Director Jin said the celebration party would be held the day after tomorrow, how about we have a small gathering today first?"

"Sure! I haven’t had the chance to relax in a long time, these past few days have been so busy," He Yuanyuan also said with a smile.

"I agree, Xiaonuan, you seem to be in a bad mood these days, why don’t you join us for a little relaxation?"
