The school beauty's four boyfriends 17
Qi An'an closed her eyes to rest, but her body was still burning with fever. Xiao Hei even adjusted her body parameters to make her feel less uncomfortable.
After she was bandaged up at the hospital, she also cooperated with the police to give a statement.
Of course, she didn't mention the surveillance issue.
She didn't come away empty-handed that night.
At least we managed to lure Ji Yu out.
What she couldn't understand was that although he used to be a bit stubborn, he was very obedient in front of her.
Installing a helmet camera on her doesn't seem like something he would do.
Was it because her cheating on him was such a blow that it made him more extreme?
Her mind was racing, her thoughts were a jumbled mess, and with the fever and injuries, Qi An'an quickly fell into a deep sleep.
Ji Yu stood guard to one side, his head bowed.
Looking at her sleeping face, her eyes became even more unfathomable.
He exuded a chilling aura and a profoundness that was completely out of place for someone his age.
Xiao Hei, which had been pressed against Qi An'an's forehead, suddenly sensed an unusual fluctuation, and the entire black sphere trembled slightly.
It wasn't fear, but vigilance.
Ji Yu is an employee of the Quick Transmigration Bureau!
How could this be?!
The Quick Transmigration Bureau has strict rules: each small world can only accommodate one employee to carry out a mission!
This is An An's mission world; no other employees are allowed to enter!
The main system will not allow it!
Xiao Hei didn't sense any system on Ji Yu, but just a moment ago, it did sense the magnetic field that only employees of the Quick Transmigration Bureau possessed.
Ji Yu's eyelids twitched slightly, as if he sensed something, and his sharp gaze suddenly fell on Qi An'an's pale face.
They were watching the spot where Xiao Hei was.
Although he couldn't see anything, he still sensitively sensed an aura directed at him.
He felt a bit suffocated in the ward, so he got up and went to open the window.
The cold wind rushed in unrestrainedly, calming his anxious heart.
He glanced back at the direction of the hospital bed, then silently closed the door, afraid that she would get cold.
There was a soft sound coming from the ward door. Ji Yu just looked over without saying a word.
The person who came didn't seem to want to make too much noise, so they simply pushed the door open.
Yan Xingcun, sitting in a wheelchair, slowly moved in and closed the door behind him.
He went to the bedside first and reached out to touch Qi An'an's cheek.
But Ji Yu blocked his hand.
"Don't touch her." Ji Yu's voice was low, his eyes sharp as a hawk's.
Yan Xingcun shook off his hand, his gaze sweeping over the wounds on Qi An'an's neck and forehead, a storm brewing in his eyes.
He heard the news from the bodyguard when she was brought to the hospital.
It is said that a man broke into her home and injured her to this extent.
Yan Xingcun asked in a deep voice, "You did it?"
Faced with the questioning, Ji Yu's first reaction was to retort, "Are you crazy? How could I possibly hurt her?"
"Who knows how utterly depraved you can become?" Yan Xingcun glanced at him sideways and said coldly, "You should know very well how I got into trouble yesterday. So who is the one who's gone mad?"
It's no wonder that Yan Xingcun suspected Ji Yu. Over the course of winter break, he was frequently harassed by the Yan family members because of an uncertain will.
A car accident yesterday almost cost him his life.
The cause of all this is the Ji family, which controls multiple media organizations.
Yan Xingcun was originally inconspicuous among the outstanding heirs of the Yan family, but the Ji family used various public opinions to push him into the spotlight and make him a target of suspicion.
Ji Yu remained silent. Yan Xingcun turned his head to look at him and said clearly, word by word, "You want my life."
Ji Yu remained calm. "You're exaggerating. I didn't."
"On New Year's Eve, wasn't it you who had someone contact my mother?"
Unable to find him, Ms. Lin Lan went on a rampage with Wang Ruoyun. Wang Ruoyun then launched a tirade against Qi An'an over the phone, which exacerbated many conflicts, both between Qi An'an and him, and between her and Wang Ruoyun.
Ji Yu said dismissively, "Do you have a compulsive paranoia?"
"It's no fun to keep acting like this. Don't you know I'm just pretending to be weak to get what I want to do? There's nothing I can't find out if I want to investigate it."
Ji Yu looked down at him as if he were a joke, "Then you can continue your investigation."
Yan Xingcun didn't speak again, his gaze drifting towards the hospital bed.
Ji Yu also turned his head to look, and his face was now much more tense than before.
Qi An'an slowly opened her eyes, her voice hoarse, "You guys are so noisy."
She observed their expressions and then asked, "What exactly is going on between you two?"
Ji Yu: "He suspects I want to harm him."
Yan Xingcun: "That's exactly what he did."
The two spoke with blank expressions, their eyes fixed on Qi An'an's face, their tone full of grievance.
The lingering smell of gunpowder in the air suddenly dissipated.
Qi An'an even found their interactions somewhat comical and childish.
In this world, her mission progress is affected by their hostile relationship.
If she wants to change Yan Xingcun's fate, she must first deal with Ji Yu.
She had vaguely overheard their conversation, and Yan Xingcun's words alarmed her.
She knew that his car accident yesterday was definitely caused by his own family, but she didn't expect it to be related to Ji Yu as well.
Does Ji Yu really want to kill Yan Xingcun?
Is it because of her?
Qi An'an looked at this one and then at that one, and advised, "If you're free, read more books. Don't have so much scheming and backstabbing in your minds. You're just kids, why are you playing such big games?"
"..."
"..."
Neither of them showed much aggression in front of her; they remained silent with stiff faces, as if listening to advice.
As soon as Qi An'an sat up, she felt dizzy, and her eyelids started to droop.
Two hands reached out from the sides and pressed her back down.
At this moment, Xiao Hei reminded her, "An'an, Ji Yu seems to be your colleague."
Qi An'an's eyelids twitched, and her brain stopped working for a moment.
Are you sure?
Xiao Hei stared at Ji Yu, "Confirmed."
It did indeed detect unusual information fluctuations in Ji Yu; he was the data entity of an employee of the Quick Transmigration Bureau.
Qi An'an was eager to find out the truth, so she closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Ji Yu and Yan Xingcun did not disturb her, each occupying a corner and staying quietly.
But as she closed her eyes, the atmosphere in the ward froze once again.
Qi An'an ignored them, mentally questioning Xiao Hei, "Didn't they say the small world could only accept one employee?"
Xiao Hei said, "He didn't carry the system, so the main system might not be able to detect him."
Qi An'an: [But I feel like he doesn't seem like... a colleague.]
Xiao Hei: "I have already reported this to the main system. An An just needs to wait."
Qi An'an scoffed: "How many times have you actually managed to contact the main system? I'm starting to wonder if it's broken."
Xiao Hei hesitated, "...No, this time there will definitely be a response. It restored my location tracking this time..."
Qi An'an: [Seriously? You've been brainwashed?]
Xiao Hei: "No way~"
"..." Qi An'an's energy didn't last long, and she soon fell asleep from exhaustion.

Wang Ruoyun was woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night.
She was about to get angry when she heard that the other person was a policeman. She immediately took her phone, got out of bed, and carefully walked to the balcony.
When she returned to the bedside after finishing the phone call, she heard the man's impatient voice coming from the bed.
"What happened?"
Wang Ruoyun was startled and stammered, "It's...it's An'an's side. A drunkard broke in and assaulted her. The police called me..."
"Why is it always her business lately?" Xu Zhi rolled over in frustration. "Hurry up and deal with it."
Just that one sentence made Wang Ruoyun very uneasy: "Her injury is nothing serious, I don't need to go."
Xu Zhi didn't speak again, and the atmosphere in the room grew even colder.
Wang Ruoyun didn't plan to go to the hospital. No matter how urgent things were, she would deal with it tomorrow.
She had just lifted the covers and lay down when Xu Zhi suddenly reached out and turned on the bedside lamp.
"What's wrong?" she asked softly.
Xu Zhi sat up and leaned against the headboard, his eyes somewhat unfathomable. "Is her name An'an?"
Wang Ruoyun was taken aback, then nodded.
He continued, "Has she been getting close to the eldest grandson of the Yan family lately? Are they dating?"
Wang Ruoyun was even more astonished. How could he know about such trivial matters? Had An'an's affair already spread throughout the circle?
“They were just… playing house like kids, not taking it seriously, and they broke up a long time ago.” Before figuring out Xu Zhi’s intentions, Wang Ruoyun didn’t dare mention her daughter’s fish-raising business.
Xu Zhi smiled and put his arm around her shoulder, pulling her closer. His voice softened. "Don't be nervous. I just heard that things haven't been peaceful in the Yan family lately. Old Master Yan isn't feeling well, and there's a lot of infighting within the family. Many people are taking sides. Yan Xingcun, that kid, doesn't have much presence, but recently someone leaked that Yan Xingcun got the lion's share in Old Master Yan's will, so he's in a bad situation now. I heard he was in a car accident. An'an, could you be implicated because of this?"
Wang Ruoyun was naturally unaware of these matters, but she also knew that Xu Zhi's concern for An'an was not simply superficial.
She said, "It shouldn't be that serious. The police said... the perpetrator is a resident who lives nearby. He's a gambler and alcoholic and had been watching An'an for a long time. Luckily, An'an was alert..."
After saying that, she quickly glanced at Xu Zhi's expression.
Xu Zhi didn't reply, his expression was deep, as if he was considering something.
She asked casually, "Isn't Xu Yi looking at potential partners with the Yan family? There's still no result?"
Mentioning his good-for-nothing younger brother, Xu Zhi gave a mocking laugh, his emotions rising, "Someone like him, would Yan Ruyan even be interested in him?"
Hearing this, Wang Ruoyun seemed to understand Xu Zhi's attitude somewhat.
Who wouldn't want to curry favor with the Yan family?
Xu Yi's marriage fell through, so Xu Zhi thought of using An An and Yan Xingcun's relationship.
Isn't Yan Xingcun just a child? Old Master Yan doesn't like Lin Lan as his daughter-in-law, so he probably doesn't think much of Yan Xingcun either...
Wang Ruoyun felt as if she were being pounded by a giant drum in her heart.
The next second, Xu Zhi lowered his head and kissed her forehead, saying, "I've been so busy that I forgot to give you a proper title. Let's get our marriage certificate tomorrow."
Wang Ruoyun swallowed hard, suppressing her excitement, and said, "Okay."
Xu Zhi: "An'an is your daughter, so she's also my daughter. It's not good for her to keep living outside. We're all family, so please bring her to live with us."
Wang Ruoyun finally made up her mind. Her throat seemed to be choked, and it took her a long time to say, "Yes, I understand."
Xu Zhi actually wanted to gamble on Yan Xingcun, even at the cost of accepting An An's existence.
That's absurd.
——
When Qi An'an woke up, she was starving.
She was still in the hospital room, alone.
She had just sat up when Yan Xingcun wheeled in right on cue, carrying a lunchbox.
"You're awake." He came to the bedside. "Go wash up and eat."
Qi An'an looked down at his cast leg and said worriedly, "Is it really okay for you to walk around like this? Go back and lie down."
Yan Xingcun looked at her bandaged forehead and said quietly, "You should worry about yourself first. Your face is as white as a ghost."
Qi An'an muttered as she got out of bed, "...Yes, yes, I almost became a ghost."
Yan Xingcun pursed his lips slightly, his expression suddenly turning displeased.
