Brother Ayan, this is what Yu Juanzhou once called Ayan. He called him that today, deliberately, to remind him of his identity back then.
When Yu Juanzhou first met Ayan, he didn't like him, or in other words, he didn't take him seriously at all. Although he was still a nine-year-old child at that time, he was still wondering why his father would bring back a young man to be his sister's bodyguard.
That young man doesn't look strong either. He's simply vulnerable compared to the big and powerful bodyguards at home. He still wants to protect his sister? It wasn't until he saw Ayan knocking down the family's bodyguard that he felt that this young man was in trouble.
He didn't call Ayan brother Ayan at first. Just like Yu Nian, he called him Ayan and Ayan every day. Ayan is not very communicative. Even though Yu Juanzhou is a young master, Ayan is very clear about whom he wants to protect, and he doesn't care about other people.
Later, Yu Juanzhou was completely impressed by Ayan because of an injury.
A Yan was injured in order to protect Yu Nian. It was because he had a crooked idea of grabbing the market and secretly mobilized mercenaries to come in and kill people. Yu Nian became a weakling and had his head snatched away by mercenaries. It was initially used to threaten the Yu family into giving in. The Yu family knew that the other party was cruel and did not dare to call the police, so they complied with the other party's request.
Unexpectedly, the other party wanted to kill people and silence them after getting benefits, so he told the mercenaries to deal with it over there. At that time, none of the bodyguards of the Yu family could be used, and they were knocked down without being able to get close to the mercenaries.
It was Ayan who rescued Yu Nian, and it was also his last year in the Yu family. At that time, Ayan was already an adult and possessed extremely strong male explosive power.
He brought Yu Nian back, and there was blood on both of them. Later, he found out that the blood belonged to Ayan. He was stabbed in the abdomen, and the wound was only treated briefly.
That scene was something Yu Juanzhou would never forget.
At that time, Ayan was like a blood-stained Asura, tall but broken, coming from the death field to protect the person in his arms.
From that moment on, Yu Juanzhou called him Brother Ayan, out of respect and gratitude.

Yu Nian's condition did not require hospitalization. After Yu Juanzhou paid the relevant fees, he took Yu Nian back home.
Went back to his house.
Yu Nian didn't want to go at first, and she was always worried. In the hospital, Yu Juanzhou was obviously trying to provoke Jiang's anger at the New Year's Eve dinner. She didn't know what would happen next.
At that time, Jiang Nian's banquet was very rare on the phone. After Yu Juanzhou said what he said, he just said lightly, "At your home?"
Yu Juanzhou was intentional, he said.
Jiang Nianyan ended the call without saying anything else.
The reason why Yu Nian was uneasy was precisely because of Jiang Nianyan's calmness. It was not clear whether his calmness was just superficial or whether he didn't care, but he had a vague premonition that this matter would not turn out as calmly as a breeze.
Yu Juanzhou showed unusual strength, which may have something to do with her being admitted to the hospital, so he almost forcibly took her home regardless of Yu Nian's wishes.
"You're staying at my place tonight. It's not like I don't have a place for you to live." Yu Juanzhou said with certainty, and then added after thinking, "You will stay at my place for a while in the future, so don't go back home yet."
Yu Nian sighed, but actually wanted to tell him that there was no point in doing so.
"Azhou——"
"Don't think about anything, just have a good rest these days." Yu Juanzhou gently took her hand, held it in his hand, and said firmly, "If you feel bored, we will go on a trip after this period of work is over. Go where you want to go.”
Yu Nian looked at him with soft eyes.
But with a clear mind, how can I act willfully at this time? Let's not talk about her and Jiang Nianyan's affairs for the moment, let's just say that the current situation of the Yu family does not allow them to do whatever they want. Are you done with this period of time? What Yu Nian didn't want to tell Yu Juanzhou was that she had a hunch that things would only go in an uncontrollable direction.
In other words, it is not easy for Yu Juanzhou to transfer his industry.
Sure enough, the doorbell rang at almost eight o'clock in the evening.
At that time, Yu Juanzhou was reading the financial report, and Yu Nianwo was lying on the sofa drowsily. She had already caught up on her sleep after returning from the hospital, but she still felt sleepy, as if she had missed too much sleep and needed to make up for it.
So when the doorbell rang, although she felt vaguely uneasy, she still couldn't hold back her eyelids. Yu Juanzhou didn't plan to open the door at first, thinking that not many people outside knew about this place. In all likelihood, he rang the wrong doorbell and stopped ringing when no one opened the door.
I didn't want the person outside the door to be very persistent. I rang the doorbell time and time again, not impatiently and very patiently.
Yu Nian was also woken up and suddenly sat up from the sofa.
When Yu Juanzhou passed by the sofa, he told her to go back to the house to sleep, and then went to the entrance to open the door.
After not seeing him come back for quite a while, Yu Nian had a bad premonition in his heart. He glanced at the time on the wall subconsciously, and his breathing began to quicken slightly.
The person standing at the door is Lao Liu.
When Yu Nian went to the entrance, he saw the man outside the door at a glance.
My heart suddenly rose to my throat.
It seems that the situation at the door is very tense, almost tense. It was obvious that Yu Juanzhou wanted to thank the guest, but Lao Liu had no intention of leaving at all. He just stood there, silent and full of oppression.
Seeing Yu Nian coming out of the room, Old Liu's eyebrows were light, but when he spoke, he said in a respectful tone, "Miss Yu."
Yu Juanzhou's back stiffened and he turned to look.
"You go back to the house." He said in a displeased tone.
It was impossible for Yu Nian to return to the house at this time, but Lao Liu was able to find him here. This shows that Yu Juanzhou's so-called privacy is nothing in Jiang Nianyan's eyes.
"Azhou, please let me handle my matter by myself." Yu Nian stepped forward slowly.
Yu Juanzhou frowned, "Your business is my business." He stopped her from coming forward and whispered, "This is a private residence. He wants to come and rob someone during the Jiang Nian Banquet?"
The last sentence was addressed to Lao Liu, and it meant something.
Yu Nian's heart was as turbulent as if it was swaying in the wind and rain. Look at Old Liu again, with a smile on his face, and what he said when he spoke was for Yu Nian to hear, "Master Yan will naturally not come to rob people. Master Yan has said that Miss Yu has the right to decide whether she will stay or go."
Yu Juanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Lao Liu alertly.
After hearing these words, Yu Nian not only did not let go, but became even more uneasy. This is not quite like Jiang Nianyan's behavior, at least she has a deep understanding of it after getting along with him these few times.
She walked up to Lao Liu and said softly, "Can you help convey my words?"
Lao Liu smiled slightly and unexpectedly said, "No."
Just in time, the cell phone rang. It was Lao Liu's. After he answered the call, he said respectfully, "Okay, please wait a moment."
He handed the phone to Yu Nian.
The word "Master Banquet" appeared on the screen of the mobile phone.
Yu Nian's breathing quickened, and his instinctive body began to hurt again.
When Yu Juanzhou saw this, he stepped forward and tried to snatch the phone away. Old Liu did not hesitate and said, "I don't recommend Mr. Yu to do this."
Yu Nian also took Yu Juanzhou's hand in time and shook his head at him.
"Although the Yu family is said to be in decline, the Yu family's reputation in the business circle is still there to some extent. Mr. Yu can be considered a man who runs shopping malls. Acting impulsively is not at all like Mr. Yu's family."
Yu Juanzhou's expression changed slightly.
Not wanting to cause trouble, Yu Nian hurriedly reached out and took the phone.
"Young Master Yan..." She suppressed her fluctuating emotions and kept her voice calm.
The other end of the phone was quiet, except for the man's deep laughter, "Miss Yu, you're so brave."
"I..." Yu Nian hesitated, and finally lowered his voice, "I'm really uncomfortable today."
Jiang Nianyan snorted over there.
Yu Nian misunderstood for a moment, thinking that he agreed to her request.
Unexpectedly, he added calmly, "So come back early and have a good rest."
Yu Nian's brain buzzed.
"Perhaps you want to stay at another man's house to rest?" Jiang Nianyan chuckled and said in an indifferent tone, "How is Azhou doing lately? He just called me Brother Ayan on the phone, and I felt that he and I were so many Haven’t seen you for years.”
Yu Nian pursed his lips and breathed faster.
Jiang Nianyan's voice was deep and magnetic, and it sounded good in the ears, but the words he said made people shudder. "I heard that he wants to transfer the factory back to Jiangnan. The relevant procedures alone are difficult. Do you want me to help him?"
"Young Master Yan." Yu Nian suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said softly, "I'll go with Lao Liu."
"good."
After ending the call, Yu Nian handed the phone to Lao Liu and asked softly, "Give me a few minutes."
Old Liu nodded slightly, "Five minutes."
Then he backed away from the door.
Yu Juanzhou looked at her in disbelief, his eyes anxious and distressed, "What did he tell you?"
"Azhou, this is of my own free will."
"Yu Nian you——"
"Listen to me first." Yu Nian interrupted him softly, "I know very well what I am doing. Azhou, your energy should be focused on the Yu family now. Since we have decided not to interfere with people from the Beijing circle, Together, then we must try our best not to offend him first."
"Sacrificing you to protect the Yu family?" Yu Juanzhou's eyes swelled and hurt, "What do I mean by this?"
"When I agreed to marry the Jiang family, it was also for the Yu family." Yu Nian patted him on the shoulder, "Actually, it doesn't make any difference. Azhou, stop being childish. The Yu family still relies on you. What Lao Liu just said is actually true. You are right, although the Yu family is in decline, its reputation is still there to some extent, and it is all due to our father's hard work. We can't let this enthusiasm dissipate."
"Also, don't worry about it. For now, Jiangnian Banquet is just a protection card."
Of course, from Jiang Nianyan's point of view, everything in the Yu family can be used as a weapon to restrain her, but similarly, because of Jiang Nianyan's relationship, it will also save the Yu family a lot of trouble, such as Zhang Xuanwen. Block, at least for now, dare not act rashly against her and Azhou.
Don't say who took advantage of whom, Jiang Nianyan saw this more clearly than anyone else.
"Don't be impulsive, Azhou. You have always been of a stable temper. At this time, you have to be patient." Yu Nian persuaded him, "I'm really fine, don't worry."
Yu Juanzhou pulled her over and held her tightly in his arms.
His arms were so strong that he almost pressed her into his body. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you..."
This was the first time that Yu Juanzhou felt that he was useless, and at the same time he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He was unable to protect the people he wanted to protect, nor was he able to do what he wanted to do. He seemed to be in a stalemate darkness, unable to get up or down, and could only watch the most important person in him drifting away.
-
Lao Liu drove the nanny car. Yu Nian thought that Jiang Nianyan was in the car, so he felt anxious as he walked towards the car. But when she got in the car, she didn't see Jiang Nianyan. Old Liu told her that the master of the banquet was still at the table.
Yu Nian didn't feel relaxed.
It would be better to see Jiang Nianyan at this moment, at least to ensure that he is awake now. She was afraid that he would return to the hotel after being drunk. He was afraid that he would not be able to finish what happened today. It was unknown whether he could worsen the situation after being drunk.
As the car drove out, Yu Nian asked Old Liu tentatively, "How's Mr. Yan's drinking capacity?"
The Ayan she knew was a teetotaler, and as a bodyguard he had to stay sober at all times.
Lao Liu drove very steadily, especially tonight he didn't drive very fast. That's right, Jiang Nianyan hadn't returned to the hotel yet.
"Miss Yu is afraid that Mr. Yu will get drunk?"
The question hit the nail on the head.
Who is Lao Liu? Someone who has been with Jiang Nianyan for many years and is trusted and valued by Jiang Nianyan must be extraordinary, and his eyes are particularly sharp.
There is no need to beat around the bush when dealing with smart people, so Yu Nian admitted, "Yes, what happened today will make him unhappy. I'm afraid that he will become drunk and crazy."
Old Liu smiled slightly and said, "Miss Yu is worrying too much. At least for now, no one dares to drink less wine at the banquet."
Yu Nian was right when he thought about it. Yijiang Nianyan's current status must be begging for him. Who dares to force him to drink?
"Don't worry." Old Liu controlled the steering wheel steadily and added, "I have been with Mr. Yan for many years and I have never seen him drunk."
How can Yu Nian rest assured?
Regardless of whether Jiang Nianyan was drunk or sober, life was not easy for her.
After a long time, she asked again, "Don't you, Mr. Yan, always hate going to such occasions?"
He doesn't like to show up and likes to manipulate things behind the scenes. This is the outside world's evaluation of Jiang Nianyan.
Old Liu glanced at Yu Nian in the rearview mirror, and his eyes were very complicated.
Yu Nian didn't understand Lao Liu's eyes, but he also noticed that he had overstepped and seemed to have asked a question that he shouldn't have asked, so he turned to look out the car window and remained silent.
The night outside the window was dispersed by neon lights, and a large ball of light and shadow splashed on the car window, vaguely reflecting the woman's face. Porcelain white and haggard, her eyes seemed to be full of prehistoric times, and her turbulent emotions were tightly suppressed.
In the end, Lao Liu didn't answer her question and didn't say anything else along the way.
When Yu Nian arrived at the hotel, he didn't see Jiang Nianyan either.
Before Old Liu Lin left, Yu Nian bravely asked him again, "Can Mr. Yan go back to the hotel tonight?"
After asking, I felt weird, as if I was waiting anxiously. She was indeed anxious, fearing that Jiang Nianyan would suddenly come back.
Seeing Lao Liu looking at her hesitantly, she cleared her throat and said, "I mean, is it possible that Mr. Yan won't go back to the hotel tonight?"
Lao Liu respectfully replied, "Whether or not to return to the hotel is Master Yan's own decision. I don't know, and I can't give Miss Yu a satisfactory answer. But one thing is certain."
"What are you sure about?" Yu Nian's heart tightened.
"Young Master Yan basically lives here, and he rarely lives over there."
Yu Nian heard the string in his heart snap.
