"Do you really think that the world is so big and everything can be controlled by just a few people? There are many eyes watching us in the dark. It's just that everyone is restraining each other. If you get involved, you'll be on the assassination list. If there's even the slightest accident, we'll really die together. We'll be on the Bridge of Helplessness deciding whether or not to drink the Meng Po soup."

"Sounds pretty good."

Jin Yining: "..."

"Wife, just be a little timid." Jin Yining said earnestly, "I'll talk to them over there. You just do what you need to do. After I hand over this position in a few years, don't think about it so much."

Shang Ning was a little conflicted. She took the dumplings and her phone outside, but just as she sat down, a sudden clap of thunder sounded outside. Shang Ning looked up and said, "Why is there thunder in broad daylight? It scared me to death."

And there were sounds coming from the other end of the phone, like the same thunder.

Jin Yining also looked outside, her brows furrowing. "After the thunder, there's likely to be heavy rain. You shouldn't go out for now. Stay home and wait until the rain stops before going out."

Shang Ning rubbed the tip of her nose and lowered her head to eat dumplings. "It's already October, and there's still torrential rain?"

"Be careful yourself." Jin Yining said, still frowning. He felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

“Yeah, we definitely can’t go during the rainstorm.” Shang Ning wasn’t in a hurry, so she didn’t insist on going right now. “You really can’t go? I feel like your master is giving you special treatment.”

“I know, but don’t even think about it. I’ll talk to Master.” Jin Yining said, getting up and going to the window. She opened the window and looked at the bright sunshine outside. “I’ll have someone book a plane ticket for you.”

"Pfft, cough cough... What's wrong? Am I a three-year-old?" Shang Ning exclaimed in alarm. "Teacher Jin, you're exaggerating a bit."

“No, the weather isn’t quite right. I’m worried about leaving you there alone.” Jin Yining said, glancing down at the time. “Master isn’t necessarily trying to give you a chance to pull strings for me.”

Shang Ning: "..."

"I'm easily scared, don't scare me." Shang Ning looked out the window; the sky was fine.

Jin Yining frowned. "I'll contact Sister Yang now. You come over first."

After hanging up the phone, Jin Yining contacted Leng Yexi. Leng Yexi was still in City A, so Jin Yining calling him was within his expectations, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

"Master, what exactly happened?" Jin Yining asked directly, getting straight to the point.

"It's nothing serious, we just need to take her away for a while," Leng Yexi said calmly. "Now that you know, there's no need to wait for her answer. We'll send her back to you in a while; it won't hurt her."

"Master," Jin Yining called out to the person before hanging up, "Is it related to the Ji family?"

Silence fell over there. Jin Yining gripped the window tightly, waiting for a response. He knew even the secrets of the Long family, so there was nothing supernatural that he couldn't accept.

“I’m not sure, but she has to leave here first,” Leng Yexi said calmly. “Or, if she comes first, we can find out a reason and know what might happen next.”

Jin Yining pursed her lips slightly, "How long will it take for you to come back?"

"At most ten days."
