Xie Wei was unaware that the man he had just considered his love rival had helped him. Just as Xie Wei was about to go home to sleep, he received a message from Su Tang.
She said her agent was going to do guidance work for someone else and needed Xie Wei to pick her up and take her home. She sent the address and a pitiful voice message.
"Sister Li and the others have all left, and they haven't said when they'll be back. I'm all alone here, it's so boring."
Listening to Su Tang's voice, Xie Wei could already imagine her drawing circles on the ground by herself, looking very bored. Xie Wei found it a bit funny. He checked the address and saw that it was the largest stadium in Shanghai, not far from here.
Xie Wei sent a message saying "wait," turned off his phone, and started the car.
When they arrived, they realized they had been tricked by the girl. The stadium was the venue for Su Tang's concert. Sister Li and the others were indeed not there, but the girl was not bored at all. She was on stage, seemingly rehearsing.
When Su Tang saw Xie Wei arrive, she waved to signal the rehearsal to stop, ran towards Xie Wei, and called out, "Brother Xingzhi!"
When Su Tang walked up to Xie Wei, Xie Wei reached out and gently pinched Su Tang's face.
"Girl, is this what you meant when you told your brother you were a little bored?!"
"Hehe," Su Tang wasn't angry when Xie Wei pinched her, she just laughed a little silly.
Seeing Su Tang like this, Xie Wei let go of her hand and sighed helplessly. The Su family all said that Su Tang was extremely smart, but Xie Wei had never seen where this girl was smart.
Xie Wei should have known that, given how much the Su family valued Su Tang, they wouldn't have left her alone outside. It's only because Xie Wei was stupid that he believed the girl's lies.
Is Xie Weichun stupid?
"The rehearsal was indeed a bit boring, and Sister Li wasn't here either, so it wasn't really deceiving Brother Xingzhi," Su Tang argued.
Just as Xie Weigang was about to say something, he saw Su Tang's agent appear at the side entrance of the stadium with someone.
The moment Xie Wei saw the person clearly, his body stiffened like a stone, his heart sank as if filled to the brim, and his brain lost the ability to control his actions. He stood there motionless like a wooden statue, staring blankly at the person.
'It's Ye Yan! How did he end up here? Have he met her before?' The moment Xie Wei saw Ye Yan, all sorts of thoughts flooded his mind.
"Brother Xingzhi, what's wrong? Are you suffering from heatstroke?" Su Tang was the first to notice that Xie Wei's expression was off, and hurriedly reached out to touch Xie Wei's forehead.
Sensing Su Tang's actions, Xie Wei came to his senses, shook his head, and a bitter look appeared on his lips.
"Just not fully awake, it's nothing serious."
"Little Candy, who is that person?" Xie Wei quickly composed himself.
Seeing that Xie Wei wasn't looking at her, Su Tang looked in the direction Xie Wei was looking and saw Sister Li and the other person walking towards them.
"Oh, that person is the one Sister Li found to be in charge of security for this concert. I heard he's quite reliable."
The land development project with Canglong Group had just been completed when they received an order for Su Tang's concert. Ye Yan, being a government employee, knew that Su Tang was both a government employee and a reclusive family.
Using his connections from his previous military service, he learned that Su Tang was the second princess of the Su family. Since he still owed Old Master Su a favor because of the incident at the Imperial University, he personally took charge of the security work this time.
Yes, it's quite normal for Ye Yan to appear in Shanghai. Bai Shiying's fate still has the option of becoming the female lead, which means that Heaven will definitely arrange for her to come into contact with Ye Yan. It's just unknown whether they have made contact yet.
'Things have gone too smoothly these past few days, making me a little complacent,' Xie Wei said with some annoyance.
While Xie Wei was thinking, Sister Li and Ye Yan had already arrived in front of Su Tang.
"Miss, thank you, young master," Sister Li bowed slightly.
"President Xie!" Ye Yan saw Xie Wei looking at Su Tang at the same time.
Xie Weichao nodded to Ye Yan. "Classmate Ye"
Her words lacked emotion, a stark contrast to the warm-hearted Teacher Xie she had previously displayed.
"Do you two know each other?" Su Tang, sandwiched between Xie Wei, asked Ye Yan.
"I once received instruction from General Xie."
"You're too kind," Xie Wei replied simply to Ye Yan's words.
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat tense.
“Miss, if there’s nothing else, I’ll continue showing Mr. Ye the things that need attention,” Sister Li said appropriately.
Su Tang glanced at Xie Wei, then waved her hand, signaling Sister Li to take Ye Yan away.
"Let's go home, Xingzhi-gege," Su Tang said, pulling Xie Wei's hand and heading out.
Xie Wei glanced at the stage and asked, "Don't you need to rehearse?"
Su Tang shook her head, took Xie Wei's arm, and walked out. "There will be another chance for rehearsal tomorrow, but the chance for Xingzhi to pick me up might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Hearing this, Xie Wei felt that the little girl was comforting herself, even though she didn't know what had happened. She only knew that Xie Wei was in a bad mood and needed comfort.
Seemingly comforted, Xie Wei felt inexplicably better.
Xie Wei used the Eye of Destiny on Ye Yan for the last time. Thinking of the information he had just seen, Xie Wei couldn't help but frown.
Name: Ye Yan;
Destiny: The Chosen One;
Strength: Mid-stage Innate Realm (with the purified Soul-Devouring Blade, it can rival the peak of the Innate Realm);
Key Fate:
After completing the protection work in Shanghai, he gains the favor of a key figure and encounters the female lead;
He unexpectedly learns that the ruins will open in a month and that the information he wants is inside. He decides to go there and will encounter the female protagonist.
'Comparable to the peak of the Innate Realm, could this Soul-Devouring Blade be the same one the evil cultivator had last time? It didn't seem that powerful back then. Truly worthy of being the Chosen One.'
According to Xie Wei's guess, the key figure is Su Tang, and the female lead is Bai Shiying.
Unfortunately, there is too little information, and it is unknown what kind of encounter will occur between him and Bai Shiying. He is in a passive position, which is very disadvantageous.
Xie Wei couldn't help but sigh as he looked out the window.
He seemed to have a vague feeling that he was trying to grasp something, but that feeling vanished in an instant, leaving no trace.
As for the ruins, it should be the immortal ruins that the system rewarded back then. I guessed that it would be related to Ye Yan, but since the system specifically mentioned it, I should go there.
The most important thing right now is Bai Shiying's matter. Since I can no longer use the Eye of Fate, it means that my current choices are especially important.
Xie Wei was genuinely scared this time; the involvement of Bai Shiying forced him to be even more cautious.
"Brother Xingzhi, the light is green!" Su Tang reminded Xie Wei, who hadn't started moving yet.
Xie Wei snapped out of his daze, and the cars behind him honked their horns to urge him on.
"Brother Xingzhi, is something on your mind? Do you need Su Tang's help?" Su Tang asked.
"It's nothing, my brother can handle it himself," Xie Wei replied casually as he drove.
But thinking of Xie Wei's appearance in the gymnasium just now, and how he had just been lost in thought, Su Tang pursed her lips. Knowing that Xie Wei didn't want to talk about it, she didn't ask any further questions.
She will look it up herself.
