Jiang Yichen's car was driving on the winding mountain road.
There was an ambiguous look in his eyes, and the assistant beside him looked at him worriedly.
"Brother Chen, are you okay?"
Without getting any answer, the assistant stopped asking questions and just sat quietly beside Jiang Yichen.
When they arrived at the hotel, the two got out of the car one after another. Jiang Yichen subconsciously glanced at the car that had been following him from behind, but walked into the lobby without saying anything.
"Linlin, go back and rest first. I can pack the things I need for tomorrow."
Noticing the man's abnormal mood, the young assistant Linlin wanted to say something, but after thinking it over, she swallowed it, nodded resignedly and left.
Back in the room, Jiang Yichen took out his mobile phone and clicked on someone's profile picture. The chat history between the two was still there when the other party sent it - three days later.
Today is the second day, and he has been feeling inexplicably uneasy. Being in a highly exposed state for a long time has made Jiang Yichen very sensitive to everything around him. Including these two days, he always feels that someone is watching him secretly, even all the time.
But he didn't feel the other party's hostility until just now at the hotel entrance. He finally saw the person in the car behind him clearly. He had seen him next to Fu Linxiao.
At the same time, the person following Jiang Yichen didn't know he was exposed, so he turned around and drove the car into the hotel opposite. All these actions were seen by Jiang Yichen behind the curtains upstairs.
Jiang Yichen didn't know what was going on, nor did he understand why Fu Linxiao sent someone to protect him. Thinking back to Jiang Luoning's initiative to visit the set, he still felt uneasy.
"Sister, have you booked your flight tickets? Do you need help from me?"
At this time, Jiang Luoning was on her way back to the hotel. She had deliberately left a little later to avoid running into Jiang Yichen on the way. The moment she received the text message, she couldn't describe her feelings. Seeing the young man's concern, she subconsciously looked at Fu Linxiao beside her.
"What's wrong?"
Noticing the little girl's gaze, Fu Linxiao immediately leaned forward and asked.
"The guy sent me a message asking about our itinerary. I don't know what to say to him. I feel like he's discovered something."
Perhaps it was the tacit understanding between twins, but from these few words, Jiang Luoning still realized that something was wrong with Jiang Yichen.
"Don't think too much. Just tell him that I have arranged everything."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Luoning just nodded silently, put away his random thoughts, and tried to remain calm.
Late at night, a gentle knock on the door broke the tranquility in Jiang Yichen's room.
Looking through the peephole, he saw the man who was supposed to be in the imperial capital appear at the door of his room. His expression was extremely serious, and next to him was the subordinate who had been secretly monitoring him for the past few days.
When he opened the door, there was no questioning as he had imagined, but he just said something naturally.
"Finally showed up."
When they entered the house, the first person to speak was the subordinate who had been discovered;
"I'm sorry, Master Jiang. My previous actions were a bit abrupt. Please forgive me!"
Jiang Yichen waved his hand generously and said with an ambiguous smile, "You are also following orders, so I can't blame you. It would be more appropriate for Master Fu San to say this."
For a moment, the subordinate who admitted his mistake was even more uneasy. He was accidentally exposed during the mission, and now the fault was blamed on his master. How could he feel at ease?
"Go back and be smart later!"
Fu Linxiao didn't care about the man's aggressiveness, and he also understood that this matter could not be explained clearly in just a few words. Considering what was to be discussed next, it was not appropriate for other people to be present, so he told his men to leave.
"Tell me, what happened that made you go to so much trouble to protect me?"
Seeing that there was no one around, Jiang Yichen put away his previous lazy look, sat up straight and looked at the other person, not giving the man any room to breathe. After a whole night of anxiety, he could no longer calm down.
Before coming here, Fu Linxiao had already prepared himself to face Jiang Yichen's questioning, but when the moment came, he suddenly found that he couldn't tell the little girl's experiences without emotion.
After a long silence, Jiang Yichen could no longer bear the depressing atmosphere and directly made a video call to Jiang Linghao, without caring whether his elder brother was resting at this time.
"You little brat! What's the time? Why are you so mad and not sleeping?"
As soon as the call was connected and no one showed up, an angry roar was heard from the other end. Jiang Yichen did not say anything, but pointed the camera directly at Fu Linxiao, wanting to see their reactions when they met.
Sure enough, the next second, Jiang Linghao's questioning voice was heard: "Fu Linxiao! Didn't you say you were going on a trip with Ningning? What's going on?"
Seeing the abnormality in the man's expression, Jiang Linghao instantly woke up, and even his voice became uncontrollably colder. "Did something happen again? Otherwise, why would you be at Yichen's place!"
Fu Linxiao remained silent.
"Not only is he here with me, he's also secretly following me!"
When Jiang Yichen heard Jiang Linghao's question, he felt like he had found the right organization and even complained.
There was a moment of silence, so quiet that it was eerie. If Jiang Yichen hadn't seen the curtains swaying slightly, he would have suspected that the network was stuck and the other party didn't hear his voice.
"Yi Chen, did you go to film a movie?"
Hearing his elder brother's voice, Jiang Yichen was stunned at first, but when he met Jiang Linghao's cold gaze, he still honestly nodded in response.
There was another period of silence.
"Lin Xiao, tell him!"
Jiang Yichen was even more confused by this inexplicable remark. He put his phone on the chair and pointed the camera at Fu Linxiao's position. After making sure there was enough space for two people, he sat down again.
Seeing that the expressions of these two people were very ugly, that ambiguous emotion surged in my heart again.
"What on earth are you hiding from me?"
Seeing Jiang Yichen's puzzled look, the two looked at each other for a moment; it was Jiang Linghao who spoke first and told the whole story.
