After a long while, the tender kiss ended.

Yin Jiujin hugged Yan Jinyu tightly, his dark and beautiful eyes filled with her reflection. “I thought you had returned to the capital.”

“Jiang Xianyou invited Linlin and Linlin’s brother to Water City as guests. Xuanxuan and Xiaohuan came along, so I came along with them.”

For a second, the gentle smile on Yin Jiujin’s face froze. “You came with your classmates? Didn’t you say that you would return to the capital in half a month?”

She didn’t come for him?

Yan Jinyu leaned in her arms and looked up at him, taking in the change in his expression.

She was overjoyed.

“We all came out together, so we have to go back together, right? They’ve all come to Water City, but I’m going back to the capital alone. Isn’t that being unfriendly?”

Yin Jiujin looked at her with a faint gaze. “You are not going to keep your word?”

“What do you mean by that? Even if I return to the capital now, aren’t you not around either? I’ll be alone when I go back, so what’s the point?”

Yin Jiujin’s expression softened slightly.

“Besides, if I don’t come here, how am I going to catch you in the act?”

His expression that had just eased up tensed up again. “I explained just now.”

“But that woman almost got close to you.”

“That’s never going to happen.” Yin Jiujin’s eyes darkened with disgust when he recalled the scene.

It seemed like it was too easy for the Zhuo Family to just take one of their projects.

“Brother Nine, you’ve gotten the main point wrong.” Yan Jinyu sat up straight and had a serious expression. “It’s undeniable that with your skills, that woman definitely can’t get close to you. But Brother Nine, you gave her a chance to get close to you!”

“In other words, you actually let your guard down to such an extent that you didn’t even notice three more people in the private room. Brother Nine, don’t you know how dangerous this is?”

Yan Jinyu was a little angry at the mention of this.

She arrived early and watched outside.

Based on her understanding of Yin Jiujin, he definitely wouldn’t allow those three women—who had nothing to do with business—to appear in the private room where he wanted to talk business. He even gave them a chance to toast him.

However, there were indeed three women in the private room. There was only one explanation. Yin Jiujin hadn’t noticed them at all!

This was a huge taboo!

With Yin Jiujin’s status, how many people wanted his life? What if it wasn’t three ordinary women but professional killers like her? Then, his carelessness today would very likely take his life!

“Not only them. I stood outside for a while before you actually realized that. If I were someone with excellent marksmanship and happened to be disadvantageous to you, no matter how skilled you are, you might be at a disadvantage because you lost the initiative!”

“You were so sharp that you could even sense me and Little Rain hiding in another private room and observing through the secret compartment.”

“I believe you don’t need me to say anything to know how skilled Little Rain and I are and how good we are at concealing our auras. And you sensed us like that, but now…”

Yin Jiujin held her hand and gently pinched her fingertips. The corners of his lips curled up slightly as he interrupted her gently, “Are you worried about me?”

Yan Jinyu didn’t say anything. She glanced at him and then buried her face in his chest.

She was indeed worried about him. Very worried.

Yin Jiujin had seldom made her worry much since they got together. He would settle everything and even take good care of her.

He had arranged everything for her.

With him around, she didn’t even have to consider what to wear for lunch.

She never thought that she was useless when she didn’t have to think about anything. On the contrary, she liked this life very much.

Everything had been arranged. She didn’t even have to use her brain to live a stable life. This meant that there was no danger. How good was that?

Yin Jiujin let down his guard. She didn’t want to pursue the reason, but she…

“Brother Nine, don’t do it again, okay? If you want to completely relax, wait for me to be by your side.”

Yin Jiujin paused in his actions and his heart burned.

He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. “This time is an exception. There won’t be a next time.” In reality, even if he let down his guard, it was not easy for others to hurt him.

Seeing that Yan Jinyu didn’t say anything for a long time, Yin Jiujin lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose. “Don’t be angry. I was wrong this time.”

“I just don’t like this feeling.”

Yin Jiujin let go of her hand and held her face with one hand, making her look into his eyes. “You have to believe me. I won’t be in danger. Of course, this won’t happen again. I promise.”

“Mm-hm.”

“Why did you specially come to Water City?” She was really curious about Yin Jiujin personally making a trip.

Yin Jiujin didn’t hide it from her. As he caressed her face, he said, “The Zhuo Family has a tourist development project.”

Without saying anything, Yan Jinyu understood what he meant.

He had taken note about what she had casually mentioned previously.

“Then why did you change your mind when you said that you wanted the Jiang Family to do this project?”

“I suddenly don’t want others to interfere.”

Yan Jinyu blinked. So that was the reason.

“Where’s your luggage?”

“At the hotel you’re staying in.”

Yin Jiujin pinched her face and smiled faintly. “You still have some conscience to come looking for me yourself.” He knew that the young lady had been teasing him just now. If he wasn’t in Water City, she probably wouldn’t have followed those people to Water City.

He raised her chin and kissed her again. “This is your reward.”

The two of them cuddled for a while before holding hands and leaving the clubhouse for the hotel.

In a hotel room.

As soon as he entered, Yin Jiujin pushed the luggage to the side. The moment he closed the door, he quickly trapped her between him and the door.

A heated kiss followed.

After not seeing each other for half a month, the two of them missed each other very much. Yin Jiujin was enamored, and Yan Jinyu was even more enamored than him.

Yin Jiujin’s exclusive suite wasn’t an ordinary hotel room, so it didn’t affect the two of them.

There were clothes all over the floor. This was destined to be another sleepless night.

***

At noon the next day.

Yin Jiujin drove personally. The two of them left the hotel and headed for the Jiang Family.

The group of them were all guests in the Jiang Family. In addition, with Jiang Zhao’s invitation, they naturally had to go to the Jiang Family. However, they still stayed in a hotel and didn’t intend to stay in the Jiang Family.

Yan Jinyu was wearing a long white dress that matched Yin Jiujin’s white shirt very well.

“Brother Nine, are you very familiar with the eldest son of the Jiang Family?”

“Not very familiar. I simply know him.”

Yan Jinyu pouted. If he could use the word “know”, it meant that they were very familiar with each other.

“Is it alright for you to go with me? If you have something to do, I can go over myself.” These were her honest thoughts.

“It’s fine. The Empire Group doesn’t have much business in Water City. I rarely come to Water City. I’m only here for that project.”

After confirming the matter, he could just instruct his subordinates to do it.

That was why Lin Zimu did not follow them.

With Lin Zimu’s ability, this matter could be settled in less than a day.

“Alright.”

Yin Jiujin turned to look at her. “Why? You don’t want me to follow you?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Jinyu immediately refuted, “Of course not.”

“I’m very happy. Brother Nine, it’s only been half a month. Why do I feel like I haven’t seen you for a long time?”

She looked at him with big watery eyes, making his heart soften.

The little girl was used to acting coquettishly to him and her words were sticky sweet.

However, he liked her this way.

“Then don’t leave me for so long in the future.”

Wasn’t he the same too?

He would try his best not to let her be separated from him for so long in the future.

The two of them arrived at the Jiang Family as they chatted.

At the Jiang Family’s door, Yan Jinyu saw an acquaintance.

Seeing that she was staring out of the car window, Yin Jiujin followed her gaze and happened to see two girls arguing with the Jiang Family’s guards.

“You know them?”

Yan Jinyu smiled faintly, “Not really.”

“Oh?”

“It’s all thanks to one of these two that Linlin got into trouble this time. I even slapped her a few times.”

Yin Jiujin couldn’t help but look at the two of them when he heard that.

He wasn’t very angry. After all, the injured person was Zhao Linlin and not Yan Jinyu. Otherwise, how could Yin Jiujin be so calm when he suddenly heard Yan Jinyu mention such a person?

“I didn’t expect her to be so bold. She has already been warned by me, but she still followed us fearlessly.”

“She’s indeed quite bold.” Yin Jiujin didn’t know how Yan Jinyu had warned her, but he could roughly guess it.

Anyone with a brain would not have the courage to take the initiative to approach the young lady again if they had been warned by her.

“There’s no need to care about such an unimportant person.”

“Yes.” She didn’t intend to care too much. This was the Jiang Family’s territory. If anything happened, the Jiang Family would step in.

If it was really time for her to have no choice but to step in, how much trouble could it take to resolve Mo Qian?

The car headed straight for the Jiang Family’s door.

The guards only dared to let them go in after asking for their identities as usual.

“Hello, may I ask who you are?”

The car window rolled down and the guard saw Yin Jiujin’s face. No, it should be said that before he could see Yin Jiujin’s face clearly, he was already so frightened by his dark gaze that he hurriedly lowered his head.

“Jiang Zhao’s guest.” His tone was indifferent, but his voice was exceptionally pleasant to the ears.

However, only Yan Jinyu noticed that his voice was pleasant.

The guard who was asking did not have the mood to pay attention to this. He was already shocked by Yin Jiujin’s indifferent tone.

Young Master had instructed them last night that there would be esteemed guests visiting.

He knew that the person who could scare him with just one look was not an ordinary person. He did not expect him to call Eldest Young Master by his full name.

The guard did not dare to delay and quickly let them in. “So you’re our esteemed guests. Eldest Young Master has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in.”

The car window rolled up and the car drove into the Jiang Family’s mansion.

“Why can they enter but we can’t?” The girl with Mo Qian pointed at the guard and questioned.

The two of them had also driven over, but they were stopped outside the door, so they got out of the car to argue.

“They’re Eldest Young Master’s guests.”

The girl frowned. “Eldest Young Master? Eldest Young Master Jiang’s guest? Didn’t you say that the guests who came to the Jiang Family today are Second Young Master’s guests?”

The guard glanced at her and did not say anything, but he was obviously unhappy.

It was understandable that Second Young Master’s classmates cared about Second Young Master’s matters. They even wanted to find out about Young Master’s matters.

“This is my boss’s family’s matters. I’m just a gatekeeper. I don’t dare to interfere.”

“You still know that you’re just a gatekeeper! I thought you had some formidable identity by blocking us outside the door so boldly! Do you know who our Jiajia is? She’s the eldest daughter of the Li Family and also Senior Jiang’s classmate. She has a very good relationship with Senior Jiang. On Senior Jiang’s last birthday, she even came to the Jiang Family to celebrate Senior Jiang’s birthday. You actually dared to block us outside the door. How bold…”
