Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Little Qing, don’t interfere in the Yin family’s matter anymore. Leave it to me. Trust me, I can handle it well. From now on, the Yin family has nothing to do with you.” Qiao Yanhui looked at the information Xu Qing was holding and suddenly said in a low voice. He really didn’t want Xu Qing to be involved in these disputes. Even if Xu Qing wouldn’t be able to avoid it as long as she was with him in the future, he wanted to help her reduce her troubles a little, even if just a little.
When Xu Qing looked up and saw Qiao Yanhui’s grave expression, she said in confusion, “I know you’re worried about me, but he’s already interfering so much! Even if I ignore him, will he stop? As long as I continue to block the Yin family’s path to riches, they won’t give up! And I can’t always hide behind you, right?”
Qiao Yanhui pursed his lips slightly, his eyes flickering with a cold look. It was his fault for failing to protect Xu Qing. After all, once some things started, it was impossible to avoid them no matter how much you wanted to. His identity couldn’t be changed, and once it was made public, Xu Qing would be the target of public criticism. She wasn’t at fault, but as long as she stood by his side, she would suffer! And the Yin family would target Xu Qing and the others. They would kill anyone who affected their wealth.
“The faction behind the Yin family is not simple. The later you get dragged into their affairs, the better.” Qiao Yanhui had no other choice but to reveal some information to Xu Qing with a solemn expression. It seemed that he needed to send some people to protect Xu Qing in secret. It wasn’t enough to rely on Xu Sizhi’s people alone.
Xu Qing was slightly stunned. She had guessed that the Yin family’s backer was powerful, but she didn’t know who he was! Could it be Lei Wangshu’s father, who was a high-ranking official?
“What kind of person is backing the Yin family? I have to at least know where the enemy came from, right?” Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui fixedly. She had to get an answer today.
Qiao Yanhui sighed slightly. He knew that Xu Qing wasn’t the kind of person who hid behind others. She wasn’t someone who relied on others to survive! However, he could only answer, “He’s related to the royal family.”
Xu Qing’s heart skipped a beat! A rich businessman from a border town was actually related to the royal family in the capital? And who exactly was Qiao Yanhui? Why did he know so much…
“Xiao Qing, don’t worry too much about it. I’ll take care of these things. Trust me.” Qiao Yanhui’s gaze was a little ambivalent. With just one look from Xu Qing, he knew that she knew quite a lot. Sometimes, he really couldn’t help but wonder if Xu Qing was really a small village girl. She knew too much. Some things didn’t add up. There were so many fishy things about her, but the information clearly stated that Xu Qing was a native of Anning Village.
Xu Qing was silent for a while before looking up at Qiao Yanhui seriously. “I will work hard to become stronger and stand by your side officially!”
Qiao Yanhui was stunned by the serious look in Xu Qing’s sparkling eyes. She was so dazzling and so different from ordinary people. And he recognized her brilliance at a glance. How could he bear to hide her?
“Okay.” Qiao Yanhui’s gaze was deep and soulful. He would also become stronger and ensure that she wouldn’t have to worry for the rest of her life! This family couldn’t just have women working hard.
Xu Qing was mesmerized by Qiao Yanhui’s gentle expression. Her eyes were also filled with deep infatuation.
Xu Qing had a few peaceful days. She didn’t know why the Yin family hadn’t made a move yet. Did they really want to rope her in? But would the person behind the Yin family agree? Xu Qing thought about it and felt that Qiao Yanhui might have done something.
In fact, Qiao Yanhui didn’t do anything. He only made Mr. Bei Shu’s identity seem more authentic. Otherwise, with the Yin family’s power, sooner or later, they would find out that Mr. Bei Shu was just a fake identity and eventually find Xu Qing! Meanwhile, Qiao Yanhui also made Bei Shu seem more mysterious, as if he had complicated relationships with the various factions in the capital, making it difficult for people to figure out which exact faction Bei Shu was affiliated with. It was precisely because of this that the Yin family didn’t dare to act rashly.
Of course, just because they didn’t dare to do anything to Bei Shu didn’t mean that they didn’t dare to do anything to Bei Shu’s business partner, Xu Qing. Xu Qing had long been investigated! But they didn’t expect things to escalate! The killers sent out were all top-notch professionals. Before they could even see Xu Qing, they were all killed! This made them even more afraid. They couldn’t imagine how powerful Bei Shu was to be able to protect a woman so well.
