Xiao Qingyin asked, "Is he from the Holy City?"
Shen Yanru nodded: "Yes."
Xiao Qingyin raised an eyebrow.
A person from the holy city would rather learn wound healing techniques than drink holy water; there must be something fishy about it.
Xiao Qingyin was very interested.
He replied, "I need to meet the person before I can make a decision."
Shen Yanru beamed with joy and said with a smile, "When will you be coming next time? I'll have him wait here."
"Tomorrow, at the same time as today."
Xiao Qingyin replied.
She didn't want to stay in the Bai family for even a second longer.
While she was there, she always had an urge to overthrow the four great families and the Holy Church.
Shen Yanru smiled and said, "Okay, I'll inform him later."
The next day, Xiao Qingyin came to Ruyi Teahouse and met Shen Yanru, her friend.
"Hello, I am Yan Yufei, the young master of Shunfeng Escort Agency."
The other person introduced themselves.
This was a tall and imposing man with slightly dark skin, a well-defined face, deep and bright eyes, a gentle and mellow voice, and loose sideburns that exuded a sense of unruliness and elegance.
Xiao Qingyin nodded slightly.
"Hello, my name is Xiao Qingyin."
After exchanging pleasantries, Yan Yufei explained his purpose.
"Actually, I don't want to learn medicine from you, but rather I want to invite you to be a lecturer. Our escort agency has several hundred people, and people are frequently injured. I want to train a group of doctors, but I haven't been able to find a suitable doctor to be my instructor..."
Xiao Qingyin smiled after hearing this.
"You should know which household I belong to, right? Aren't you afraid I'll report you?"
Knowing full well that the Holy Church regards doctors as heretics, they still openly say that they want to train a group of doctors. Isn't this a clear attempt to go against the Holy Church?
This escort agency is definitely not an ordinary one.
Yan Yufei said with certainty, "I know you are a guest of the Bai family, but I believe you are on the side of the people."
Xiao Qingyin had to admire his courage.
Why did you do that?
She asked Yan Yufei.
I want to know what this person is plotting.
Power, status, fame... or something else.
"In order to live."
Yan Yufei said calmly.
"Did you know that eighty years ago, before the Holy Church took control of Nandan, the average lifespan of the people of Nandan was seventy-five years? But in recent years, the average lifespan has dropped to forty-five years?"
"While life expectancy has declined dramatically, per capita disposable wealth has also plummeted, now less than one-tenth of what it was eighty years ago."
"The people of the four great families are rich and live long lives, while the others are poor and die young."
"Most of the people here are hardworking and kind. They are devout believers and think that the Holy Spirit can save them. But they don't know that it is the holy water given by the Holy Spirit that has taken away their life."
"Our lives shouldn't be like this."
“Things like the Holy Church and the Four Great Families should never have existed in the first place.”
Xiao Qingyin discerned his ambition from his words.
She didn't know when she came into the other person's sight; perhaps she had already been targeted when she was treating the little girl with nematodes in Santa Square.
The patients in Xishan Village were clearly a test.
They used that consultation to test her stance and character, allowing Shen Yanru to get close to her, observe her, and then decide whether or not to invite her.
Xiao Qingyin did not dislike such probing.
On the contrary, she felt that this precisely demonstrated the other party's caution.
A blindly confident rebel leader will not live long; only those who are bold and meticulous can possibly achieve victory.
Especially since the other side was facing behemoths like the Holy Church and the Four Great Families.
She gave her an appreciative look and smiled, "Okay, I accept your invitation."
She also disliked the four great families and was quite looking forward to someone overthrowing them.
Yan Yufei said gratefully, "Thank you."
From that day on, Xiao Qingyin came to Ruyi Teahouse every day to teach the people that Yan Yufei had arranged to come here to learn medicine.
As for Bai Musheng, she only said that she was on good terms with the owner of Ruyi Teahouse and liked to come here to drink tea and chat.
Bai Musheng was busy campaigning for votes and didn't have time to spend with her, so he was happy to see her find her own fun.
Linglong reported that everything was normal, so he had even less reason to doubt.
About ten days later, one morning, Bai Musheng asked Xiao Qingyin, "The Jin family is holding a birthday banquet tonight. Do you want to attend?"
Before Xiao Qingyin could answer, Linglong hurriedly walked in.
"The manager of Ruyi Teahouse has sent someone over to ask you to come over immediately."
Xiao Qingyin was taken aback.
It was only an hour before she was to go to Ruyi Teahouse, so why was Shen Yanru in such a hurry to find her?
Without delay, she said to Bai Musheng, "Can I get back to you later? I need to go to Ruyi Teahouse first."
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed across Bai Musheng's eyes.
Xiao Qingyin seems to think too highly of the owner of Ruyi Teahouse.
It even takes precedence over him.
If he hadn't inquired and learned that the shopkeeper was a woman, he would have suspected that Xiao Qingyin was having an affair.
However, he did not express his dissatisfaction, but simply said, "Okay."
Xiao Qingyin took Linglong to Ruyi Teahouse.
She went into the private room where she usually taught, only to find that the person waiting inside was not Shen Yanru, but Yan Yufei.
Yan Yufei, abandoning his usual composure, said anxiously, "Yan Ru has been kidnapped."
Xiao Qingyin was taken aback.
When did this happen?
“Last night,” Yan Yufei said in a deep voice, “I received the news this morning. In the middle of the night, someone broke into her house and kidnapped her. I mobilized all my manpower to search for her. I learned from the Jin family’s informant that Miss Jin brought someone back to the courtyard. It should be Yan Ru.”
Miss Jin the Second...
Xiao Qingyin thought for a moment and remembered who this Miss Jin was.
Jin Yueyue.
Thinking of Jin Yueyue's exceptionally ugly face, her heart sank.
It's highly likely that Jin Yueyue captured Shen Yanru and took her back to have her face changed.
"Could you go and check with Kim Il for me?"
Yan Yufei pleaded.
Xiao Qingyin shook her head.
“I have a grudge against Kim Il, she won’t let me into the hospital.”
Yan Yufei frowned.
"What should I do? The Jin family's defenses are too strong; I can't break in."
Xiao Qingyin recalled Bai Musheng's question before she left and replied, "The Jin family is having a banquet tonight, which I can attend, but I may not be able to find Yanru."
Yan Yufei regained hope and said excitedly, "Thank you! Thank you so much. Please let me know if you need any help."
"No help is needed for the time being."
Xiao Qingyin replied.
She now has enough ability to protect herself, and even if the Jin family is a den of dragons and tigers, she dares to venture in.
"Then I'll wait for your message."
"good."
After leaving the private room, Xiao Qingyin headed towards the stairs, where Linglong was waiting for her in the lobby on the first floor.
However, just as she reached the halfway point, the sliding door of a private room on the right was suddenly opened, and a strong, powerful arm pulled her into the room with lightning speed and quickly closed the door.
