Wanwan: [Hmm? You need my Seventh Brother's help? Is this a good thing or a bad thing?]
Xiao Linghan said, "Master Jiang, please speak."
Master Jiang glanced at his daughter, who was hiding behind a door not far away and quietly peeking over, and said, "My daughter Jinning was frightened yesterday. This morning, I heard from the maid that she was troubled by nightmares and was terrified all day because of the shock. So I thought about asking Master Lin to be her bodyguard for a few days."
Xiao Linghan, who was standing by, was about to speak when Master Jiang added, "At first, I naturally thought of asking someone else to protect my daughter, but she told me that you were the one who saved her yesterday. So, she only trusts you right now. With you as her bodyguard, she'll naturally feel at ease.
Of course, with Mr. Lin's status, you can ask for a commission, and the money is naturally not a problem."
Originally Wanwan was still wondering what they should do now that Shen Junze had successfully stayed in the Jiang Mansion?
But I didn’t expect that what Mr. Jiang said was like a timely relief.
Wanwan: [Oh my god, even God is standing before us this time. We were worried there was no way to stop him, but now Brother Seven is going to be Miss Jiang's guard. Isn't this just what we want?]
[Seventh Brother, charge! Stop that brat Shen Junze from getting the girl. We must stop him!]
Wanwan screamed excitedly in her heart, but suddenly thought of another point.
[Wait, Brother Seven said earlier that Miss Jiang was delicate and weak, not his type. So Brother Seven won’t refuse this time, right?]
Wanwan's heart sank. Just when she thought that her seventh brother, a big blockhead, was going to refuse this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, she heard her seventh brother agree to what Master Jiang said.
Xiao Linghan: "Okay."
The younger brother beside them couldn't help but widen his eyes and was surprised when he heard what their eldest brother said.
Big brother actually agreed!
Even a dog can see that Mr. Jiang seems to be trying to match up the eldest brother and Miss Jiang.
My eldest brother is the deputy leader of the Dragon and Tiger Pavilion. He is always busy with all kinds of affairs. How could he be willing to come to the Jiang Mansion to be a small guard, even if the commission is high?
But my eldest brother not only agreed, but also agreed very quickly.
Big brother, this... Could it be that big brother likes Miss Jiang's type?
Mr. Jiang, who was standing by, couldn't help but say happily, "That's great! My daughter will definitely be very happy when she knows this."
Jiang Jinning, who was hiding behind the door not far away, saw his father happily reaching out and patting the man's shoulder, and he knew that the man must have agreed.
Dad is still reliable.
Jiang Jinning chuckled and said to the maid beside him, "Let's go back."
When some are happy, others are sad.
Shen Junze looked at the man standing next to Mr. Jiang and frowned.
I originally thought that I would send them away today, but I didn't expect that Xiao Linghan would stay.
It was definitely not Mr. Jiang's idea to let Xiao Linghan stay and serve as Jiang Jinning's bodyguard.
Shen Junze darkened his eyes and looked at the beautiful figure who left quietly behind the door not far away.
Could it be that Jiang Jinning likes Xiao Linghan?
Shen Junze looked at Xiao Linghan standing beside him, and inexplicably sensed a sense of crisis.
[Looking at Shen Junze's eyes, he must think that Brother Seven is ruining his plans.]
[I have to tell my second brother later to tell my seventh brother to be careful with Shen Junze.]

Master Jiang asked Xiao Linghan to stay in the Jiang Mansion for a few days to serve as a secret guard for his daughter. Naturally, it was not possible for Wanwan and her second brother to stay in the Jiang Mansion any longer.
Before leaving, the three siblings talked in a secluded corner.
Wanwan originally thought that after she told her second brother that Song Yi was Shen Junze, her second brother would tell her seventh brother in a subtle way to be careful of the guy named Song Yi.
Unexpectedly, the second brother put his arm around the seventh brother's shoulder and slowly said, "Seventh brother, you should know that the second brother has studied divination before, right?"
Xiao Linghan listened to this and his eyes fell on his second brother's hand on his shoulder. He was wondering what his second brother was going to do when he heard his second brother say:
"Second brother just read your fortune. When you enter the Jiang Mansion, be careful of that fellow Song Yi, because you are born in the year of the tiger, and he is also born in the year of the tiger. As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain!"
Wanwan: “…”
Xiao Linghan: “…”

Shen Junze stayed by relying on his identity as the son of Song Bailin, an old friend of Mr. Jiang.
He was naturally not Song Bailin's son. Tianming had told him before that Song Yi had been beaten to death in a casino three years ago because of his gambling addiction. As for Song Bailin, he died of depression within a month after losing his son.
That's why he can use Song Yi's identity openly. After all, people are dead, so there is naturally no evidence.
"Mr. Song, please come this way."
Shen Junze successfully stayed with the help of Song Bailin.
At this moment, the servant of Jiang Mansion was leading him to the courtyard where he lived.
Shen Junze followed the servant quietly. Seeing that Tianming had not spoken for a long time, he said to Tianming:
[Shen Junze: Tianming, please help me find out what Jiang Jinning’s hobbies and interests are.]
[Shen Junze: Xiao Linghan has become Jiang Jinning's bodyguard. If this was intentional by Jiang Jinning, I have to be on guard.]
[Shen Junze: And Xiao Moqing and his sister, I always feel that they are not simple. I met them before entering the Secret Valley, but I didn't get the Phoenix Inner Core. This time, I met them, but the heroism to save the beauty was unsuccessful. I don't believe their appearance is just a coincidence.]
Once or twice is fine.
But today, Xiao Linghan stayed behind to be Jiang Jinning's bodyguard. Shen Junze felt that their appearance was as if they were deliberately trying to stop him.
After Shen Junze finished speaking, he saw that Tianming did not answer him.
[Shen Junze: Destiny?]
Shen Junze called him again, but still no one answered.
Shen Junze frowned. He could feel Tianming's presence, but its breath was so weak. Was it... asleep?
Shen Junze looked up at the sun shining brightly. It was clearly daytime, and Tianming rarely slept during the day.
Could it be that a lot of energy was spent on disguising him or finding out about Song Yi's background?
Seeing that Tianming was still offline, Shen Junze stopped calling it.
When he followed the servant passing by the rockery, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Fourth brother, let me do it myself. I can move it myself."
On the gravel road not far away, Qiu He was holding a large box of medicinal herbs in her arms. The young man next to her, who was a head taller than her, took the box from her.
"It's okay, Fourth Brother is strong enough. I'm a grown man, how can I ask a girl to move the things?" Ge Gui took the box from the girl effortlessly.
Qiu He smiled and said, "I was worried that you were too tired. You helped me all night yesterday, and you came back early this morning to help me move things."
Ge Gui smiled innocently and said, "It's just a matter of convenience."
"By the way, have you eaten?" Qiu He asked.
Ge Gui shook his head, "Not yet."
"It just so happens that I made some dumplings this morning. I'll cook you a bowl later."
Hearing this, Ge Gui nodded and said, "Okay."
