Ye Shuning, a Doctor of Chemistry, was struck by a meteorite and transmigrated into a chronicle novel she had read, becoming the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife.
She just wants to stay ...
Although the man's tone was casual, Ye Shuning absolutely didn't believe it was a coincidence. Seeing this, she had no room for refusal. Was she meeting someone from the underworld?
Ye Shuning was a little nervous, but she couldn't lose her composure and let others look down on her. In her space, she had mixed up drugs and poisons for self-defense. If these people dared to hurt her, she would let them taste the poison.
Although the medicine she prepared usually wouldn't kill people, it would make the poisoned person regret provoking her.
Ye Shuning thought about the effects of the medicine she had prepared, straightened her clothes, and got out of the car. When she stood in front of the man, she could see his face clearly.
The man was young, perhaps in his twenties, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, a tan complexion, and a face with distinct angles. He was tall and sturdy, and even in his suit, his muscular build was noticeable. He was very explosive and imposing, and it was clear he was no ordinary minion.
Ye Shuning tried to calm herself down and said calmly, "I don't know the name of this gentleman, but I'd like to introduce myself to him."
Yan Xichuan looked at the calm little girl in front of him, showing no sign of panic or fear, and couldn't help but look up to her. She was indeed not an ordinary girl. If an ordinary person saw such a scene, they would have been so scared that they couldn't speak clearly, but the little girl was not at all nervous.
Yan Xichuan smiled and said, "My name is Yan Xichuan. I think Miss Shu of the Nangang Yan family should have heard of it. The elders in the family invited Miss Shu to visit our home. Please do me the honor of visiting."
Ye Shuning had certainly heard of the Nangang Yan family. This family was also very influential in Nangang, with a huge influence and numerous businesses under its umbrella, covering many industries. The Yan family had mobilized such a large force, so it seemed that she had no choice but to go today.
Ye Shuning said, "Then I'd better obey your order. Let my driver go back so that my family won't worry."
Yan Xichuan didn't seem to care about the driver. He waved his hand and asked people to make way.
Ye Shuning turned to the driver and said, "Go back and tell my brother that I'm visiting the Yan family."
The driver was so frightened that he quickly drove away. He also had to hurry back to report the situation. Looking at the situation, he was afraid that Miss Shu would be in danger if she fell into the hands of the Yan family.
Yan Xichuan made a gesture of invitation, and Ye Shuning followed Yan Xichuan and got into the car he had been in before.
The driver who had picked up Ye Shuning followed her instructions and drove straight to her home. By then, Li Shaoting had already picked up Li Jingyu and was in the kitchen preparing the ingredients. He knew how to steam the rice, but he was going to wait for Ye Shuning to come back and cook the dishes, as he couldn't cook.
Li Shaoting heard the loud knocking on the door and quickly opened it, and saw the driver who brought Ye Shuning standing outside the iron gate.
The driver, sweating profusely, panted and said, "Are you Miss Shu's elder brother?"
Li Shaoting quickly opened the security door and said, "I am. Didn't you send Xiao Ning back?"
The driver wiped the sweat from his face and said, "Today I was driving Miss Shu back home, but on the way, a group of men in black stopped us. One of them said the Yan family wanted to invite Miss Shu to be their guest. Miss Shu had no choice but to follow them, and they asked me to come back and report the news."
Li Shaoting's face changed drastically when he heard this. He knew that Ye Shuning was in danger.
He asked, "You are the driver that Mr. Qin assigned to Xiao Ning, right? Can you take me to see Mr. Qin?"
Li Shaoting wasn't very familiar with Nangang after all, so he had to ask Qin Zongye about the Yan family the driver mentioned. He had to find Ye Shuning's whereabouts before he could save her.
After seeing the driver's agreement, Li Shaoting turned around and told his son to stay at home obediently, then locked the door and followed the driver downstairs to find Qin Zongye.
Ye Shuning's car sped all the way to the halfway point of a mountain, and then drove into a manor.
Ye Shuning observed the surroundings through the car window. This was a manor located halfway up a mountain. There were quite a few buildings inside, and someone was standing guard at the door.
Yan Xichuan looked at Ye Shuning's actions and kindly introduced, "This is our Yan family's old house, the elders all live here."
Ye Shuning didn't know what the Yan family's intention was, so she just acted accordingly.
The car stopped in front of a multi-story villa. Yan Xichuan got out and opened the door for Ye Shuning. He also very gentlemanly put his hand above the door as if he was afraid that Ye Shuning would hit her head.
After Ye Shuning got into the car, she felt that Mr. Yan had become very strange. He seemed to have no hostility towards her and his attitude was very gentle. Now he was so gentlemanly. She didn't know what this guy was up to.
Yan Xichuan looked at the little girl and saw that she was still calm. A smile flashed in his eyes. "Come in. The elders are waiting inside."
Ye Shuning glanced at Yan Xichuan in confusion, increasingly confused by the Yan family's actions. She discovered that the group of men in black who had intercepted her were nowhere to be seen, and only she and Yan Xichuan had come to the villa.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, then followed Yan Xichuan into the gate.
As soon as they entered the hall, the talking stopped and everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Shuning.
When Ye Shuning entered the room, she released her mental power and did not notice the men in black, nor did she find any dangerous people in the villa.
Only then did she see clearly that there were quite a few people sitting in the hall, men, women, young and old, and the one sitting at the top was a white-haired old lady with a kind face and a benevolent look.
Ye Shuning was a little confused at this moment. What exactly did the Yan family mean? Why did these people who wanted to see her seem so strange? Why was there an old lady in her sixties or seventies?
At this time, a beautiful middle-aged woman spoke up, "Xichuan, what are you wearing? All black, like a black crow. It's so ugly."
Yan Xichuan touched his nose and said with a guilty conscience: "I thought that when I invite people, I should dress more formally."
A young man nearby looked at Yan Xichuan and said, "This kid must have been playing a prank again. Did he scare our guests?"
The old lady sitting in the upper seat stood up at this time, and the young man next to her quickly supported the old lady.
The old lady slowly walked over to Ye Shuning, seeming very excited. She looked at Ye Shuning and tears fell unconsciously, muttering to herself, "They look so alike. They are just like each other. They are just like each other."
The old lady grabbed Ye Shuning and said, "Girl, is your real surname Ye?"
Ye Shuning was even more confused at this moment. She blinked and asked, "Old man, how do you know my last name is Ye?"
The old lady was even happier after receiving Ye Shuning's affirmation. "Come, sit down with me. I'll tell you something."
Seeing that the old lady seemed to be unable to move, Ye Shuning quickly helped her walk to the sofa. Then she was pulled by the old lady to sit next to her.
The old lady took out an old photo and handed it to Ye Shuning, "Take a look at this long photo."
Ye Shuning took the photo curiously and was stunned when she saw the person in the photo.
