Chapter 350: The Story Seen from Another Perspective
When Li Yan ntioned needing her help, it was just a courtesy; at most, he would ask her to analyze sothing, not involve her too much. But Wen Qianyi’s response shocked him like a thunderclap!
If it were soone else, they wouldn’t understand what it ant and would probably find it inexplicable, but as soon as Li Yan heard it, he realized she knew sothing she shouldn’t know!
However, how she knew it, and how much she knew, was sothing that had to be clarified, because if she knew too much, even if he didn’t silence her, it would attract other troubles.
"Soone who can’t be killed by a bomb? What does that an? Who’s that capable?"
Seeing Li Yan’s surprised expression, Wen Qianyi slightly smiled and chuckled, "Do you really not know? Or are you just pretending to be clueless?"
"I don’t understand what you an..." Li Yan deliberately laughed and said, "You can’t be talking about , right?"
"Alright, then I’ll tell you a story. Maybe after I finish, you might rember sothing." As Wen Qianyi spoke, her eyes were fixed on Li Yan’s, not allowing his gaze to shift away.
"A few days ago, soone ca to the business departnt to find , but I was out at the ti. By the end of the workday, I intended to see if that person would co back; after waiting for a while without any sign, I left work. Then, soone ca hurriedly and drove out swiftly as if there was sothing urgent going on. I had already picked up my car by then, so I followed out of convenience." At this point, as if afraid of misunderstanding, Wen Qianyi added:
"Of course, it wasn’t out of concern; it’s just that he ca looking for , and I wasn’t sure if what he was rushing to had anything to do with ."
However, this sentence seed to carry a hint of trying to cover sothing up. Her revealing that she had waited for Li Yan in the office that day also made him break a sweat.
"Guess what I saw?" Wen Qianyi blinked with a gleam in her eyes as if telling the interesting story of an outsider.
"Haha, saw a car crash? A bomb?"
At this point, Li Yan already grasped part of the situation. At that ti, his focus was on the Chevrolet SUV, plus it was near the company with many cars driving out, so he didn’t pay much attention to vehicles behind him. Given the performance of Wen Qianyi’s Lotus sports car, there was no need to stick close; as long as she tailed from a distance and sped up a bit when losing sight, it wasn’t impossible for her to follow unnoticed.
"I saw soone drive after a car ahead, and the two cars were very in sync on the road, arriving at Harmony Square. Initially, I knew it had nothing to do with , but having followed this far, it seed a bit unfortunate to give up, so I continued out of curiosity, secretly like this."
"..."
"And then, I saw soone pick up a ringing phone from the top of a car, this person held it for a mont but didn’t answer. Not sure if he was slyly pretending or just lucky, a motorbike thief ca by and snatched the phone from him..."
Wen Qianyi recounted what she saw that day. By the ti she got there, Li Yan had already parked and was walking toward that car, so she directly witnessed that scene. (For details, see Chapter 328)
But looking at Li Yan, he didn’t appear shocked or surprised, nor was he pretending to stay calm, instead, he seed curious and interested. "Really? And then?"
"That fellow was surprisingly alert; as soon as the phone exploded, he dashed to the square like a rabbit. If he’d stayed by the car, he would have been blasted beyond repair." Seeing Li Yan still feigning ignorance, Wen Qianyi rolled her eyes at him in exasperation.
"And then? Setting off bombs in broad daylight is really detestable!" Li Yan criticized indignantly.
Wen Qianyi felt a bit helpless. At the ti, she had only just arrived and saw Li Yan’s situation from afar; after the explosion, she was also worried. But by then, Li Yan had run toward the square, and the area nearby had turned chaotic, making it difficult for her to park and squeeze through, let alone catch up to Li Yan.
As for what happened later at the square, she was too far to see clearly but vaguely heard gunshots, which made her very worried. She waited there for a long ti, just staying near Li Yan’s car. As the sky darkened and the neon lights gradually lit up, her heart grew heavier; she feared she would wait until night or even until dawn and Li Yan wouldn’t co!
Later, she saw Li Yan’s car moving, then watched him return! But there were too many onlookers then, Li Yan was in a hurry to leave and didn’t see her.
Previously, Li Yan was tracking the car in front, with speed and route constrained by the leading car, while Wen Qianyi was inside her car, naturally managing to follow.
After Wen Qianyi noticed and ran to her car, she couldn’t find his direction anymore. She quickened her speed, searched along possible routes, but still couldn’t spot Li Yan’s car. Ultimately, she had to give up. Seeing he returned safely and wasn’t in an accident or caught, she could finally be at ease.
Afterward, she drove ho. Once ho and not hearing from Li Yan, worry still lingered, so she made a phone call to him.
By then, Li Yan had already used "Heart Demon" to deal with the female sniper, parted ways with Duan Haibo, and was driving ho when he received her call.
Wen Qianyi couldn’t openly say she had tracked and seen his secret, so she tried to maintain a purely official inquiry tone, ntioning the Beihai Country incident. Over the phone, she heard the ease in Li Yan’s voice, which relieved her heart.
In her excitent, she even suggested he treat her to a al right away. But Li Yan said he was already ho. She, of course, didn’t believe him, casually ntioning he was still in the car. Sure enough, Li Yan admitted he was still in the car but said he was on his way ho.
It was only at that mont that Wen Qianyi truly felt relieved, jokingly calling him a male escort to lighten the mood. (See Chapter 331.)
...
’I’m not yet at the point of poor eyesight; I saw very clearly that it was you at the ti.’
Wen Qianyi stared straight into his eyes, wanting desperately to say it outright! But she was a sensible person and could infer from Li Yan’s words that he didn’t want to reveal his identity, secret, or discuss it. If it were really spelled out, there wouldn’t be a way for them to back down or a diplomatic retreat.
Therefore, after so thought, she sighed and said, "I don’t know either, I just watched the spectacle for a while; the traffic police arranged for the injured to be taken to the hospital and were investigating the scene. After that, I left, not knowing about the other events."
These words also conveyed an underlying ssage: Look, I haven’t uncovered more about you, so there’s no need to be too tense!
Sure enough, hearing this, Li Yan was significantly relieved. "It seems that guy is really lucky to survive that. But you shouldn’t get too curious; as the Western saying goes: ’Curiosity killed the cat.’ This ti was lucky, but if next ti you happen to follow too closely, wouldn’t he end up dragging you into it?"
"Is that so?" The perceptive Wen Qianyi certainly understood this was Li Yan subtly responding to her in a roundabout way. "Is that really what he thinks? But I think if the person considers a good friend, he should tell the real situation. We worry because of information asymtry, if we know all the circumstances, we’d often have fewer concerns."
Should a good friend tell you everything? What kind of theory is that!
Li Yan laughed, "A good friend should have their own secrets too. After all, you’re human, not necessarily a tree hollow that keeps secrets. Telling one person increases the chance of spreading. So why not safeguard the secret yourself? So secrets even a good friend wouldn’t share, right? For instance, would you share your first ti’s experience with a good friend?"
Wen Qianyi was taken aback, then imdiately moved closer, pretending to knock on his head.
Li Yan hurriedly said, "I was just making an analogy..."
"Hmph! I don’t care what secrets or reasons that person has; I just an that while he enjoys walking the tightrope or playing with fire, when he falls or gets burned, he shouldn’t drag others down with him!"
Hearing this, Li Yan wanted to laugh but couldn’t. Shaless, Wen Qianyi was actually worrying about him, yet she didn’t want to admit it, using the excuse of worrying for Yu Xiaodi instead.
He softly said, "Forget it... that was just an occasional scene, not sothing that will appear often, that person won’t have any troubles, nor will he drag others into it!"
Wen Qianyi didn’t respond, taking this as his answer, his indirect acknowledgnt!
After a while, she chuckled lightly and said, "Haha, of course, why would I rember that stuff? I don’t even have the ti to rember it; I’ll forget it in a couple of days."
(Thanks for the 60 monthly passes! Finally, a bit of an explosion, not much, but at least double the usual; I actually aid to draft the fifth Chapter, but since last night I’ve been working hard, and truly can’t keep my eyes open anymore... Anyway, it’s a good start. With everyone’s enthusiastic support, I believe I can persist throughout August with higher standards! Monthly passes are still urgently needed, there are too many strong books in the city genre, and official literature still holds an overwhelming advantage, I’m still too weak, Mixed desperately needs your crucial vote of support!——Thanks!)
