This meeting lasted very late, and most people had left by three in the morning.
Ever since Lu Nanying was kidnapped, Ji Chengzhou would come home no matter how late it was, as long as he was not on a business trip.
"Let Xiao Ye come to Nanyuan tomorrow."
After giving Ji Yu some instructions, he drove away from the base.
After returning to Nanyuan, he didn't rush back to his room because everyone in the base was smoking just now.
He also smoked two cigarettes, although not much, but he smelled strongly of cigarettes.
After taking a shower in the guest room downstairs, it was already 4 a.m. when he went to bed.
He picked up his phone and sent a message, then hugged the girl who was sleeping soundly in his arms, bent down and kissed the corner of her mouth before closing his eyes.
The next morning, the vibration of the phone on the bedside table woke the sleeping person.
"Be good, sleep a little longer." Ji Chengzhou comforted the little girl in his arms.
I got up, picked up my phone and went to the balcony.
"Master, the batch of diamonds from Country M was hijacked by people from Qingfeng Hall at the dock."
Ji Feng's anxious voice was heard, mixed with some noise.
"Is anyone injured?"
"Two brothers were shot in the shoulder, and the others only had minor injuries."
"Let Ji Yu give it to the injured brothers, and then distribute the subsidies as needed."
Ji Chengzhou said a few words before hanging up the phone. After washing and changing his clothes, he squatted in front of the bed and kissed the little girl who was still sleeping.
"Baby, I have to go to the base. Remember to get up and eat later. Xiao Ye will be here soon and you can do whatever you want with him."
The disturbed girl slapped the man on the handsome face.
Ji Chengzhou smiled helplessly, got up and went downstairs.
"Auntie Ning, at the latest one hour, if Yingying hasn't woken up yet, you have to wake her up to eat."
"A man named Xiao Ye will be here soon. Ask him to wait for Yingying."
"Okay, Master."
When Xiao Ye came over, Lu Nanying was already eating breakfast at the dining table.
"Ms. Lu."
"Your name is Xiao Ye." Lu Nanying ate the shrimp dumplings made by Aunt Ning with a bulging mouth.
"yes."
Xiao Ye felt very uncomfortable about Ji Chengzhou handing him over to Lu Nanying, and he would rather be punished at the base.
"Brother Chengzhou asked me why he asked you to come to me."
"No, my master said, I leave this to you."
Although he didn't have a good impression of Lu Nanying, he knew how important she was to his master, so he was still very respectful to her. His attitude was completely different from what he had shown in the basement that day.
"Xiao Ye, thank you for saving me that day."
Lu Nanying put down his chopsticks, stood up and thanked Xiao Ye seriously.
Xiao Ye was startled by her serious attitude and was a little confused. "Ms. Lu, don't you blame me for not saving you from the beginning?"
"I know you all have a lot of opinions about my previous misbehavior, and you are not related to me, so you have no obligation to save me."
Lu Nanying was smiling, and her emotions could not be seen.
Xiao Ye was a little puzzled by the girl in front of him. "You are the master's sweetheart, and I am the master's subordinate. I should protect you. It was because you hurt the master that day that I didn't save you the first time."
"I accept any punishment you want to give me. Please, Miss Lu, don't let me leave the Flame Prison and my master."
Lu Nanying looked at the man in front of her with his head lowered and pleading in his words.
"Am I such an arrogant and unreasonable person in the eyes of you brothers in the Flame Prison?"
"No." Xiao Ye looked at the girl in front of him who was so beautiful that he had nothing to say. Her big watery eyes looked at him. He suddenly felt that if he had not taken action that day, he would not be able to die even if he died ten thousand times.
"Whether it is or not, it doesn't matter. I was stupid and blind before, but I won't be stupid again in the future."
Xiao Ye felt a little helpless. You don’t have to say that about yourself.
"Xiao Ye, how are your skills?" Although Lu Nanying did not pay much attention to the affairs of the Flame Prison Hall, as a young lady from one of the four major families, she had some understanding of these people and things.
In the past, she was bewitched and indifferent to her family's business and power, and she had no skills, so she was easily kidnapped in her previous life and this time.
She will marry Ji Chengzhou in the future, and the four major families have made countless enemies.
The Ji family is the head of the four major families. If she wants to stand shoulder to shoulder with Ji Chengzhou, she needs to become stronger.
"Miss Lu, in the entire Flame Prison, in terms of skills, except for the master, I am on par with Ji Feng, Ji Yu, and the other masters."
Lu Nanying was a little surprised that Xiao Ye was sent to lurk in the enemy's house. She knew that he must be quite skilled, but she didn't expect that he could be on par with his second brother.
"Xiao Ye, are you willing to stay in Nanyuan and teach me self-defense? I don't have much skills, and if anything happens, I will only be a burden to others. Like Xiao He, at least I can protect myself."
He was somewhat surprised by Lu Nanying's request. He had thought of many ways she might torture herself, but he had not expected this.
Looking at the delicate young lady with her small body, he asked him to teach him kung fu, but he was afraid that if she hurt anyone, she would be tortured to death by her master.
"Ms. Lu, Ji Yu is teaching new students at the base. Why don't you let him come?"
"You don't want to?" Seeing Xiao Ye's embarrassed look, Lu Nanying deflated.
"I know I'm weak. It must be very hard to teach me. Ji Yu has to take care of Yanyu, and Ji Feng has to help Brother Chengzhou manage the Ji family. They are all very busy."
"If I go to the base, I'll get nervous over the slightest bump or injury. How can I really be taught?"
Xiao Ye felt a little reluctant, but he was really afraid of being beaten to death. Old swan, who will save him?
He bravely asked Lu Nanying, "Miss Lu, does the master know about this?"
"I haven't told him yet." Lu Nanying shook his head.
Xiao Ye seemed to have suddenly thought of something, "How about I wait until I ask the master for permission, and then I'll teach you if the master agrees?"
Lu Nanying suddenly became happy and smiled sweetly, "Okay, wait for me, I'll call him right away."
Ji Chengzhou didn't answer the phone after it rang, and Lu Nanying didn't call again. She knew that he had something important to do recently.
"Xiao Ye, let me add you on WeChat. Once Brother Chengzhou agrees, can you come to Nanyuan to find me?"
"Okay, Miss Lu." Xiao Ye was also Ji Chengzhou's confidant in the base. Her affairs were trivial, so he just let Xiao Ye go back.
The garden in Nanyuan was almost finished in the past two days. In order to help Lu Nanying pass the time, Aunt Ning specially asked someone to leave some vegetable seeds.
Looking at the little girl sitting in a daze on the sofa, "Miss Lu, the swing and rocking chair in the garden are installed. Do you want to go and play with them?"
Hearing that the swing was installed, Lu Nanying suddenly became interested, stood up and pulled Aunt Ning to run outside.
"Aunt Ning, please don't call me Miss Lu anymore. It's too unfamiliar. Call me Yingying instead."
Other ladies of high socialite status would love for their servants to be respectful to them, thinking that they must have done something good in their past life and that’s why their masters treat them so well.
"Oh, okay, baby."
Lu Nanying was happy and played on the swing for a while. Aunt Ning went to make lunch. She went to the Platycodon Garden for a walk and took a lot of fish food to feed the fish.
With her generous generosity in feeding the fish, these precious fish in Nanyuan will soon be gone.
