Chapter 463
(Thanks to book friends [You’an, Yu Shao] brother fans for rising in value, adding a squad leader for the Mixed, here’s an extra Chapter as a thank you!)
Li Chengfeng suggested that the two of them should wander around the streets themselves, without needing to go back and get involved. In fact, he didn’t want his daughter to participate, but he couldn’t convince her; now that Li Yan was around, it was perfect for him to take on this task. He even proposed that they stay in another hotel.
However, having just gone through a dangerous situation and seen two dead bodies, Li Jie didn’t have much appetite for food or interest in shopping. The two of them quickly hailed a cab at the entrance and went back to the Intercontinental Hotel.
By the ti they returned to the hotel room, Li Jie was jittery, feeling as if every person she saw could be a traitor working for the foreigners. Yet, she managed to stay calm and didn’t let it show.
Li Yan was a bit helpless; he understood that Li Jie was anxious to return to the room mainly not because she was scared or tense, seeking a place to relax, but because she wanted to question him about various suspicious points!
Sure enough, as soon as they got back to the room, Li Jie pulled him directly to sit by the bed and seriously asked, "Who exactly are you?"
"I am a Yun Country person!" Li Yan responded with great righteousness.
Li Jie was taken aback, staring deeply at him, realizing that he wouldn’t easily give answers. She took out the gun and magazine she had just received from him.
"Co on, are you really going to use the gun to extort ?" Li Yan laughed.
"Where’s your gun?" Li Jie retorted.
"My... gun?" Li Yan deliberately showed a cheeky smile, "Your words make misunderstand, you know!"
Li Jie didn’t say anything, tossed the gun onto the bed and then reached over to search Li Yan’s body. She had heard two kinds of gunshots earlier; what was taken was from the foreigner, fitted with a silencer; he definitely had a real gun on him!
"Don’t search, I can do it myself..." Li Yan suggested helplessly.
Li Jie didn’t believe he would voluntarily produce it and continued to search with her hands, eventually feeling a hard object.
"Don’t squeeze! That’s my male external reproductive organ..."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie was startled and quickly released her grip, but soon realized she was being tricked! Rembering the incident at the swimming pool, she boldly slapped him below.
"Oh really? Your organ has relocated to your waist? Can it be cut here?"
"I said silly girl, mind your manners! And you said you wanted to act like a lady!" Although she hadn’t seen what happened at the scene directly, she understood the situation. If Li Yan kept hiding things, she might get more curious and doubtful, which would lead her to keep digging. It was better to find a suitable excuse and tell her the truth directly.
"Look, this is my gun."
He took out the gun. Originally, upon returning, he thought others would handle the fight, so he could relax tonight and had stored the gun away. But later, when going out with Li Jie, he figured if there was danger and neither had a gun, it would be problematic; hence he found an excuse to bring the gun along.
It really was a real gun!
Li Jie reached out, wanting to touch it, but paused. Her gaze locked onto Li Yan, and she softly asked, "Can you tell ?"
"If you promise not to say anything."
"I promise."
"Just like you guessed, I also ca for the protection of that Julian. Or our nature is the sa, just the thod’s different, no, even the thod is the sa. Those bodyguards are openly visible, you and I are working in secret." Li Yan simply explained and then put the gun, spare magazine, along with Christopher’s gun and magazines, into the drawer.
Receiving a direct answer from Li Yan, even if brief, was enough for Li Jie. She always felt the eting between them was simply too coincidental unless it was fate-decided; otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible in so many ways. Also, she found him very mysterious. Originally, she thought he might be a retired veteran from so special forces. Now hearing he’s a similar kind of bodyguard explained many previous doubts well.
"So, when I went to protect Yu Xiaodi, you had the sa task? And did Nian Yufei also hire you?"
Upon hearing her words, Li Yan lay on the bed, shook his head laughing, "Don’t think too much, there aren’t many people who can afford . Yu Xiaodi was an exception due to knowing her and just happening to be around when she encountered danger, could I even discuss money? As for Nian Yufei...
It was many years ago when she was a child, I protected her, sort of saved her life, that was after her mother was killed. So, she might have an impression, I guess! So months back, she ran into in a restaurant by chance, and of course, I didn’t recognize her, but she did recognize . She likely wanted to repay , never got this off her mind. Later I asked her for so concert tickets, saying let that serve as payback."
The matter between him and Nian Yufei, Zhang Yurong, Yu Xiaodi, Huang Ying, Hai Fu, and others who went to the concert didn’t know. Wen Qianyi knew later when she traveled to D City, ended up on the sa flight, and because Nian Yufei intentionally swapped seats, he quickly pretended to sleep, but was eventually tricked by the smart fox Wen. But Li Jie was different; she had known the two weren’t ordinary long ago. On the night they went to get the tickets from the hotel, she was there alongside.
