1145 I Want to Make You Stay 23 (1/2)
”I'm fine. Since you've cleaned up everything, go back and get some rest,” said An Xiaoning.
”Alright, I shall excuse myself, then.” Fan Shixin waved at his subordinates, after which all of them vanished within seconds.

”What!?! Really?” Yu Yiwei exclaimed in shock as she got out of bed and tightened her grip on her mobile phone.
”…”
”Got it.”
”…”
”Alright.”
Yu Yiwei put the phone down and began to panic.
Xihou Jiaping wouldn't have called her if it weren't because of something urgent.
She did not expect for Jin Qingyan to have become so formidable.
If Xihou Jiaping could not kill him, it's only a matter of time before An Xiaoning discovers that I'm in cahoots with Xihou Jiaping. There's no way for me to escape.
Besides, An Xiaoning had taken away the Yin family ancestral records. Why would she have done so if she didn't know that the Yin family only had a few descendants left?
She is definitely making use of the Yin family to lure me.
I can choose not to step in at all. However, I can't just sit back and watch my few remaining descendants die in front of me.
Yu Yiwei picked up the bottle of liquor on the table and began pouring herself a glass, which she then finished in one go.
She continued to pour and down another glass.
Yu Yiwei slammed the glass down with a look of determination in her eyes.
When daybreak arrived, she dolled herself up and proceeded to meet Yu Caiwei at the restaurant that they had agreed upon.
”I'll be returning to A City later.”
”Sis, aren't you going to stay for a few more days?”
”Nah, there's nothing better to do here. Caiwei, would you be willing to give up your career and move abroad for good, if you had to?”
Yu Caiwei answered without hesitation, ”Of course not. I'm doing so well here, why should I move abroad? It's not like there's no space for me in the nation.”
”If you had to choose between your life and your career, which one would you pick?”
”Sis, aren't you asking the obvious? I'd choose my life, of course. What's the point of having a career if I'm dead? Sis, what's wrong with you? Why have you been acting so strangely of late?” Yu Caiwei asked with a frown.
”Nothing. Focus on acting. I'm going back now,” said Yu Yiwei, who stood up to leave without eating much.
Staring at her receding figure, Yu Caiwei hurriedly stood up and took chase. ”Sis, are you troubled about something?”
”I'm alright.”
”You're lying. Sis, you must tell me if you're worried about something.”
Yu Yiwei hugged her and whispered into her ear, ”You must bear in mind what I said about leaving Fang Erlan's bodyguard alone. You can't afford to offend or provoke him.”
Yu Caiwei nodded, thinking to herself that her sister must know something about Xiao Chenyang that she herself doesn't know about.
Yu Yiwei pondered over a question throughout her journey home.
It was extremely important to her.
—
Yu Caiwei had begun paying more attention to Xiao Chenyang after hearing her sister's words.
After thinking about it carefully, she began to smell a rat.
Given how good-looking and outstanding Xiao Chenyang was, why would he be willing to be Fang Erlan's bodyguard?
Judging from his mannerisms, he seemed to exude the aura of a wealthy man.
He doesn't look like a bodyguard at all. In fact, he seemed to be a classy and elite individual.
