Castle Hall

"Hey, what's wrong?"

Alex's phone rang, and he answered it immediately.

"Sir, today a car lingered around the entrance of our manor for a long time. According to the surveillance footage, they were probably following Young Master Jingyan's car."

The caller was the person in charge of monitoring and supervising the security of the manor, who paid particular attention to suspicious outsiders. He sensed something was wrong and quickly called to report it.

"Okay, send me the surveillance footage right away, I want to see who it is."

Who would be following Lan Jingyan? He couldn't figure it out, so he could only check the surveillance footage.

"Okay, sir, I'll send it to you right away. Please wait a moment."

He quickly operated the camera to capture footage of the vehicle following Lan Jingyan from the moment it entered the monitored area until it left.

"Okay, that's settled then."

Alex was clearly angry. Who was it? And what was their purpose?

Lan Yazhi and her two daughters, who were standing nearby, also overheard their conversation and felt somewhat uneasy.

Just as everyone was worrying, Lan Jingyan and Yan Xiluo returned.

"Jingyan, you and Luoluo are being followed. After reviewing the surveillance footage, you two must return to China immediately!"

Alex wanted to ensure the two returned home safely before secretly investigating and tracking these people himself.

“Okay, then I’ll have the private jet land at the estate, and we’ll leave directly from here.”

Lan Jingyan didn't hesitate; he only wanted to ensure Yan Xiluo's safety. Could it be that they were having too much fun along the way and hadn't noticed they were being followed?

Yan Xiluo also found it strange. Although she had been chatting with Ariana in the car, she had been paying attention at all times. How could she not have noticed the person following them?

The surveillance video was quickly sent to Alex's phone.

Alex projected the surveillance video onto a projector so that everyone could see the details clearly and see if they could identify who it was.

"These people are covered up so tightly, we can't see them at all."

Ariana felt like her eyes were about to go blind!

"This license plate number is obviously fake!"

Even Alita noticed something was amiss. Although she was usually busy with work, she wasn't stupid!

"We have absolutely no clue! It's just that their following skills are too good, so it's normal that you didn't notice."

The way they followed the car so cautiously and their skillful technique was clearly the result of long-term training. They were obviously looking for an opportunity to attack them!

Alex immediately sent a message to his men, ordering them to mobilize resources to investigate these people.

"So you and Luo Luo are in danger, Jingyan. You need to take Luo Luo away quickly. I was hoping you could play for a few more days, but it seems that's not going to happen!"

Her nephew and niece-in-law's safety was the top priority; she was determined to find out who was following them.

Yan Xiluo frowned slightly. She noticed the markings on their masks, which were the same as those of one of the two groups of people hunting them down back home. But she didn't say anything; she didn't want Lan Yazhi and the others to worry.

Lan Jingyan also noticed this detail; the mark was all too familiar! It belonged to one of the groups of people hunting them down domestically!

"The plane will land in five minutes, and we'll leave right away. I'll bring Luo Luo to play again next time."

Before they figure out the situation, they can't stay in Country F any longer. He also needs to hurry back and secretly investigate this matter.

"Okay, safety first, we can talk about the rest later."

Alex just wanted to get them on the plane as soon as possible and get them away from danger. Once they left F country, they would be free from the pursuit, which would also buy them some time.

However, Alex was unaware that there were also people back home hunting them down.

The plane soon landed at the manor. Lan Yazhi had already asked someone to prepare some gifts for Yan Xiluo to take back. She planned to make up for the rest when they met next time!

"Then, Aunt, Uncle, and sisters, we'll be going now."

Lan Jingyan said goodbye to them in front of the plane, and Yan Xiluo also waved goodbye to them...

"Okay, go quickly! Remember to let your aunt know you've landed safely!"

Even in her anxiety, Lan Yazhi couldn't forget to give them these instructions.

Soon everything was ready, and the plane began to take off.

After they flew far away, Lan Yazhi, Alex and their two daughters reluctantly returned to the castle.

“Ayan, I noticed that the markings on the masks are exactly the same as those on the masks of a group of people in China.”

Once they were on the plane and it was just the two of them, Yan Xiluo told them what she had just seen.

"I just realized that too, but I didn't tell them because I was afraid they would worry."

Yes, he kept it to himself, intending to tell Yan Xiluo after boarding the plane.

"I've already sent my men to investigate, but I don't know how long it will take to make any progress."

She started investigating after the last incident; this was the first time this group of people had appeared to hunt them down.

She was quite certain that the other group was sent by the people who had previously hunted her down, while the group with the markings on their masks was orchestrated by someone else entirely.

However, she was with Lan Jingyan both times they chased her, so it was really unclear who their target was.

"I've been investigating secretly since last time, but I still haven't found a clue."

He was also very troubled, unable to find any useful information, and he even began to doubt his own abilities.

"Forget it, let's not think about these things for now. We'll make other plans when we get back."

She knew that even if she racked her brains, there was no way she could possibly die.

"Do you want to take a nap?"

He was worried that she was genuinely exhausted and wouldn't be able to adjust to the time difference when she got back. It was 2 a.m. in Z country now, and it would be 2 p.m. when she got back.

"Let's chat a little longer before going to sleep; I can't fall asleep right now."

She was initially feeling sleepy, but watching the surveillance video completely dispelled that drowsiness.

"What do you want to talk about? Are you still thinking about following us?"

This girl tells me she doesn't want to think about these things, but she hasn't let go of them herself.

"Half and half, but not entirely."

She searched her entire memory but couldn't find any trace of that mark. Could it be some mysterious organization? But the question is, how did they get involved?

"Okay, stop overthinking it. I think you need to get some sleep, otherwise you won't be able to adjust to the time difference."

He could easily see the difficulty she was having with jet lag. Ever since the fashion design competition, he had noticed that she wasn't in particularly good shape, and her mental state was fluctuating.

"Then will you sleep with me?"

She thought Lan Jingyan could coax her to sleep, and perhaps distracting her would make her fall asleep immediately.

"ah?"

Luo Luo would actually make such a request of him? He didn't react for a moment.

"May I?"

Seeing that Lan Jingyan did not answer, she asked again.

"Okay, let's go to the bed then. The seat is uncomfortable and might affect your sleep quality."

He was very happy after he came over; it was the satisfaction of being needed.
