Turning around, Lin Zichan had already left the room.
She hesitated for a mont.
Then quickly chased after him.
"Guard Lin." Yan Jinyao called out to him.
Lin Zichan stopped in his tracks, looking at Yan Jinyao, who was a bit out of breath.
"Is it convenient? I want to have a few words with you alone." Yan Jinyao mustered up the courage.
She felt that, even with a mindset of impossibility, she had to fight for herself once.
Not sure if it was because she had followed the boss for too long over the years, she had also beco a bit more bold and confident.
"Okay." Lin Zichan agreed with a nod.
He assud that Yan Jinyao was looking for him regarding matters of An Ning.
The two walked together to the backyard.
...
In the study room.
An Ning had just finished calculating the accounts.
She stretched lazily and asked casually, "Where’s Jinyao?"
"Miss, Second Master said he had so matters to instruct the servants about, so he left first and let stay here to serve you," a maid replied.
Another maid added, "I just saw Second Master and Guard Lin go to the backyard. If you need her, I can go call Second Master now."
An Ning was lifting a cup of tea at that mont.
Her hand clearly shook a little.
So water spilled from the teacup.
"Miss..." the maid exclaid.
"It’s nothing," An Ning replied calmly.
She put down the teacup, calmly wiped the tea, and then stood up.
The two maids naturally followed behind her.
"You don’t need to follow , I’m just taking a walk."
"Yes."
An Ning walked out of the study, slowly, and reached the backyard.
In the backyard.
Two figures stood there.
Lin Zichan was dressed in blue clothes, and looking from behind, he appeared upright and graceful.
"Guard Lin, I don’t want to beat around the bush anymore." Yan Jinyao took a deep breath and said, "I admire Guard Lin, and I just want to ask if Guard Lin has any thoughts about being with ?"
Lin Zichan’s pupils widened in shock.
He hadn’t expected to face a sudden confession.
He also hadn’t noticed that Yan Jinyao liked him.
"I won’t hide anything from you, Guard Lin, I had a poor upbringing, and because of my family’s poverty, I was sold to a brothel, so I’m not pure. But it has been many years since then. After the boss redeed from the brothel, I’ve been by myself ever since. If Guard Lin doesn’t mind, I hope Guard Lin can stay in Wenzhou and marry . The boss is very generous to , and I can ensure that Guard Lin will never lack for anything." Yan Jinyao spoke sincerely and realistically.
She didn’t have much to offer Lin Zichan now, but she had money.
She didn’t mind if Lin Zichan was with her for the money.
After all, she had plenty of money to last them a lifeti.
Lin Zichan slowly regained calm and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Yan, but I do not have such feelings for Miss Yan."
"Is it because Guard Lin is already engaged?"
"No."
"Is it because your family is all in Xun City? I can bring your parents and family to Wenzhou. As long as they co, I can provide them with the wealth and glory they desire," Yan Jinyao promised.
"Also no, I am alone," Lin Zichan replied.
"In that case, what is Guard Lin still worried about?" Yan Jinyao was sowhat excited.
She didn’t expect that Lin Zichan was not only unmarried but also unencumbered by family ties.
"Is it because of my background that Guard Lin is concerned?" Yan Jinyao felt sowhat disappointed.
She had expected n to be disdainful.
"No," Lin Zichan denied, "You were not in control of your circumstances, and I understand. But I have no inappropriate thoughts towards Miss Yan."
"Feelings can be cultivated over ti..."
"I already have soone I admire," Lin Zichan said bluntly.
