Startled, Su Yan instinctively stood up and moved aside, warily watching the two men who had suddenly appeared next to the stone pillar.
One was fair-skinned and had a slender figure.
He was tall and had a menacing scar on his face; he had a very powerful presence.
Seeing that they were wearing military green uniforms, she breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still asked warily, "Who are you?"
The sentence just mentioned her and Jiang Jingxing, but she remembered that she had never met them.
Seeing her so wary, the fair-skinned man couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is a military compound. No one will dare to harm you. You don't need to act like a little wildcat."
Wasn't she quite adept at teaching the barbecue stall owner how to do business last night?
Why are you acting like a cowardly kitten now? It's so funny.
Su Yan's expression was calm, but she wasn't as nervous as before.
“I don’t know you. If you suddenly strike up a conversation with me, any normal person would be wary, right?” she said.
The fair-skinned man chuckled. "My name is Yang Yongle, and this is Yu Jin. Yu Tuan and Jiang Tuan used to be in the same battalion. Last night we saw you two chatting at the barbecue stall, and now you're sitting here alone. That's why I asked out of curiosity. I didn't mean to offend you, so please don't misunderstand, young lady."
Su Yan nodded knowingly and explained simply, "He had to go back, so I'll wait here for the people he arranged to come out."
"He's not taking you in?" Yu Jin scoffed. "Do you need us to take you in?"
As soon as Su Yan's gaze fell on him, she felt that the man's aura was frighteningly heavy, but not enough to scare her.
She blinked, shook her head, and said, "Thank you, but no need. I didn't want to go in; he didn't force me."
Yang Yongle asked curiously, "What's your relationship? He seems to take good care of you."
Su Yan was a little unsure about the relationship between the two people in front of her and Jiang Jingxing, so she didn't dare to say too much, "Just ordinary friends."
She didn't want to get too involved with Jiang Jingxing and his complicated circle; she just wanted to make money honestly.
Yang Yongle and Yu Jin are both intelligent people, so of course they could sense her estrangement and indifference.
"I'm leaving," Yu Jin said before turning and walking away.
Yang Yongle quickly asked, "What's your name?"
"Su Yan."
Upon hearing the name "Su Yan," Yu Jin immediately stopped, standing directly opposite her.
He turned to the side, squinted at her for a few seconds, and asked, "What is your relationship with Su Yu?"
Su Yan was stunned, and said truthfully, "I am his sister. Do you know my older brother?"
Hearing her older brother's name, she couldn't remain calm.
To be precise, this body and the original owner's soul hidden deep within the heart cannot find peace.
It seems she really wants to hear news about her brother.
Su Yan's answer caused their expressions to change instantly.
Yang Yongle put away his playful smile, and his entire demeanor gradually became serious.
Seeing this, Su Yan immediately asked him excitedly, "Do you have any news about my older brother?"
“No,” Yang Yongle said without hesitation. “We just know him; we haven’t heard from him for several years.”
Seeing Su Yan's agitated state, Yu Jin pursed his lips, lost in thought.
If they were just acquaintances, why did their expressions change just now?
Su Yan didn't believe their nonsense at all and was about to continue asking questions when a horn sounded behind her.
All three of them looked over.
A military jeep drove out, the passenger window rolled down, and the driver was Wang Xiaoxin, Jiang Jingxing's bodyguard.
"Comrade Su Yan, get in the car, I'll take you for a tour."
Su Yan came to her senses and found that Yu Jin and Yang Yongle had already entered the courtyard and were some distance away from her.
Left with no other choice, she got into the car.
However, she had already made up her mind that before leaving Beijing, she would definitely find them and get to the bottom of things.
In the courtyard.
Looking back and seeing the jeep drive away, Yang Yongle breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, Wang Xiaoxin arrived in time, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to answer her."
Yu Jin glared at him irritably and scolded, "Why did you have to ask her name?"
Yang Yongle cried out that he was wronged, "Brother Yu, don't you think she's quite interesting? Asking for her name isn't a crime!"
wrong!
Didn't Brother Yu ask her what her relationship with Su Yu was? Why is she blaming him?
Yang Yongle had a clear understanding of the situation, but he dared not speak out against it.
After walking for a while, the two saw Jiang Jingxing leaning against the door of the Jiang family's house, smoking alone, and they could hear Jiang Changzheng and his wife arguing inside.
This model couple has had two arguments in the last two days, which the whole compound could hear, and everyone in the compound is sighing with regret.
Even the most perfect couples have their breaking points.
Jiang Jingxing noticed that the two people only glanced at each other before looking away, showing no intention of speaking.
Yu Jin thought for a moment, then walked over and said, "I just ran into Su Yu's sister."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingxing suddenly looked up, immediately threw down his cigarette, and demanded, "Who gave you permission to approach her?"
“Jiang Tuan, we meant her no harm, please don’t misunderstand.” Yang Yongle quickly said, “We only asked a few questions, but we didn’t expect her to be so sensitive and suspect that we have information about Su Yu.”
Jiang Jingxing didn't even glance at him; his sharp eyes, filled with murderous intent, were fixed directly on Yu Jin.
Yu Jin did not dodge, nor did he show any intention of backing down.
The atmosphere between the two became increasingly tense.
Yang Yongle was truly impressed!
Putting these two huge icebergs together in one product is simply too much!
"You're not planning to tell her?" Yu Jin looked away and said calmly.
Jiang Jingxing: "I know what I'm doing. It's best not to let her see you before she leaves Beijing!"
Yu Jin scoffed lightly, "You can hide it for a while, but can you hide it forever?"
After saying that, he strode away.
Jiang Jingxing was extremely agitated.
Hearing the arguing coming from inside the house, he drove away from the compound and went to the military region.
...
at the same time.
Forbidden City.
It's not peak season yet, so there aren't too many people at the Forbidden City.
With Wang Xiaoxin's guidance and special privileges, the two of them were able to enter without queuing.
Su Yan was in a good mood today, but a series of unexpected events made her lose interest in sightseeing.
Wang Xiaoxin kept talking non-stop, but she didn't hear a word he said and didn't even know where they were.
After wandering around for almost half an hour, the slow-witted Wang Xiaoxin finally noticed that something was wrong with her.
"Comrade Su Yan, are you feeling unwell? Should I take you to the hospital to get checked out?"
Su Yan stopped and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Comrade Wang, can I ask you something?"
Seeing her so serious, Wang Xiaoxin straightened up and said, "As long as it doesn't involve classified information, I will tell you the truth."
"Do you know Su Yu? He's my brother," Su Yan asked directly.
Wang Xiaoxin: ...What a mess! "Please vote and comment, everyone!"
