Monkey rushed to stand in front of Li Yang, blocking Gao Xinchen's sight with his body. He looked at him with a defensive look and said, "This is my sister-in-law, my boss's wife."

The implication that "Li Yang is already taken, don't set your sights on her" is too obvious.

He originally thought Gao Xinchen was a good person, but he didn't expect that he would be like a fly, always hanging around Li Yang and couldn't be driven away. Sometimes he would try to strike up a conversation with him, and sometimes he would offer to give him jade. Did he think that his sister-in-law was the kind of superficial woman who was greedy for money?

This kind of pretty boy is the worst kind. If he brings his sister-in-law out, he has to be responsible for her physical and mental safety.

Seeing the monkey guarding him like a thief, Gao Xinchen couldn't help but smile: "My dear brother, I just saw that I had a connection with this little girl, so I couldn't help but chat with her for a few more minutes. You don't have to be too nervous."

The monkey still stood in front of Li Yang, as if he would not move away unless Gao Xinchen left.

Li Yang couldn't help laughing when he saw this, and said to the monkey, "It's okay, we'll be leaving in a few days anyway."

After hearing this, the monkey moved away reluctantly.

That is, a playboy like Gao Xinchen was just on a whim, so how could he chase Li Yang all the way to Guangzhou? Besides, with their boss around, how could Ji Huaizhi be a pushover?

"Oh, so from what you said, you are not from Shenzhen?" Gao Xinchen asked.

Li Yang nodded: "Well, my husband has something to do here, so I just happened to come over and spend a few days."

With just one simple sentence, he pointed out that he was married.

Hearing this, Gao Xinchen smiled and suppressed the slight regret in his heart: "That's really a pity. I was thinking that I could meet you again and exchange experiences in jade."

It was true that he regretted that Li Yang would be leaving in a few days, and it was also true that he regretted that she was married at such a young age. No matter how playful he was, he would never get involved with a married woman. His own reputation didn't matter, but the young woman had to consider her dignity.

Li Yang also smiled: "As you said, meeting is destiny. Who knows, we may meet again in the jade world in the future."

Although Gao Xinchen was a bit arrogant, he was not as arrogant and unreasonable as a rich kid. This was also the reason why she was willing to talk to him more.

Gao Xinchen nodded: "We've known each other for such a long time, but I still don't know your name. Maybe one day, I will go to your city."

Based on Li Yang's accent, he could tell that he was from Guangdong Province. Most of the people from Guangdong Province who came to Shenzhen for business were from Guangzhou. Coincidentally, his next destination was Guangzhou.

However, Li Yang kept his mouth shut and simply said, "The name is just a code name. If Mr. Gao really comes to my city, I will definitely play the role of a good host and show him around. It won't be too late to tell him my name then."

Hearing this, Gao Xinchen no longer forced himself. Li Yang exchanged a few simple words with him and then left with the monkey.

At night, Li Yang lay on the bed, stroking the jadeite raw stone he bought during the day, thinking about the arrangements after returning to Guangzhou, and he became a little upset.

She had already asked someone to talk to Zheng Shu about the salary issue, and she didn't know if Feng Mei would just give up. And then there was the issue of how to sell the materials she had with Old Tao after they were finished...

She slept in a daze until the middle of the night, and was suddenly awakened by thunder outside the window. She habitually touched the other side of the bed and found it was cold.

She turned on the bedside lamp and checked the time. It was already past two in the morning.

No matter how busy Ji Huaizhi was these days, he never came back after 12 o'clock. I wonder if something happened.

Li Yang swallowed, sat up and wanted to pour a glass of water, but he didn't hold it firmly, and the cup fell to the ground and broke.

Seeing the debris on the ground, Li Yang felt inexplicably panicked.

Just then there was a knock on the door: "Sister-in-law, how are you?"

It's the monkey outside the door.

Li Yang originally wanted to say it was okay, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his tone and said, "Is it convenient for you? Can you come in for a moment?"

As he said this, he carefully stood up and opened the door for the monkey.

As soon as the monkey entered the door, he looked towards the window. After confirming that nothing was wrong, he took a broom to clean up the debris on the ground.

Li Yang asked him, "Do you know where Ji Huaizhi is?"

Monkey paused, pretending to be indifferent and smiled: "Boss is very busy every day, I don't know."

Seeing that Monkey was still playing coy with her, Li Yang couldn't help but speak seriously, "It's already past two in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet." She paused, her tone slowing down, "I know you have secrets you can't share, and I won't ask. I just want to make sure he's safe."

Monkey dumped the broken glass into the trash can, and for once, he didn't look Li Yang in the eye. "Sister-in-law, I really didn't lie to you. I really don't know how the boss is doing now."

He only knew that today was the day to receive goods at the port. Logically, Ji Huaizhi should have returned long ago. If he didn't return at this time, there was only one possibility: something had happened.

He was anxious and naturally wanted to go and take a look, but he had received Ji Huaizhi's order to protect Li Yang's safety, so he could only worry in the hotel.

Seeing Monkey like this, Li Yang knew his guess was correct, so he said, "I know you have orders you need to obey, and I won't force you to tell me. I just want to ask you, can you go find Ji Huaizhi, even if it's just to lend him a hand."

She knew that Ji Huaizhi brought a few people with him this time, but Shenzhen was not her territory after all, so she had to be careful about everything.

When Monkey heard Li Yang say this, he was immediately moved. Then, remembering Ji Huaizhi's instructions, he shook his head and said, "No, I promised the boss that I would keep you safe."

Li Yang couldn't help but get anxious: "What time is it now? Are you still bothering with this? Besides, I'm staying in the hotel and I won't leave. Who can kidnap me?"

Monkey struggled in his heart, and finally made up his mind: "Sister-in-law, I will go find the boss, and you must not run around alone."

Li Yang quickly agreed: "I will definitely not run around."

After getting Li Yang's promise, Monkey didn't dare to stay any longer and immediately rushed out of the hotel.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew in from the window, bringing with it raindrops as big as beans, and soon, heavy rain began to fall.

Li Yang quickly got up to close the window. His mood was just like the sudden heavy rain, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

*

After the monkey left, Li Yang had no mood and dared not to go to sleep. He could only listen to the sound of rain outside the window and pray in his heart that Ji Huaizhi and the others were safe.

I don’t know how long it took, the sound of rain outside the window gradually subsided, and suddenly there was a dull thump at the door. Someone was knocking on the door.

Li Yang jumped up from the bed in shock, straining the nerves in his tailbone. He ignored the pain and stared at the door. "Who?"
