In the study, Lin Jinyan and An Zhixian were chatting happily, and the man in black clothes who served tea before came in to add more tea.
An Zhixian introduced: "His name is Ling Shi. He lives in this house. To the outside world, he is called Shitou. He is a martial artist. I invited him to take care of the warehouse. In fact, he is here, watching the news everywhere. The news comes from people you can trust.”
When Ling Shi heard this, surprise flashed in his eyes. He quickly glanced at Lin Jinyan and stood behind An Zhixian with lowered eyes.
Lin Jinyan was puzzled: "Boss An... why did you tell me such secrets? Why do you trust me so much?"
An Zhixian smiled brightly, making the study room brighter. Even Lin Jinyan was dazzled by the smile.
"Ms. Lin, have you forgotten that you and I are allies who help each other and have a life-or-death friendship? An should be honest with Miss Lin."
Lin Jinyan picked up the teacup: "Thank you very much, Boss An, for trusting me so much. Since Boss An treats you sincerely, I will definitely not let you down as an ally."
An Zhixian picked up the tea cup and touched it lightly:
"I have never doubted Miss Lin. If Miss Lin needs help when encountering something, she can send a message to Gao Fan at any time and I will receive the news."
Lin Jinyan agreed with a smile. As soon as she put down the tea cup, Gao Fan entered the room and saluted:
"Master, the Fourth Highness is here, saying he wants to see you."
Seeing An Zhixian looking over, Lin Jinyan stood up without waiting for him to speak:
"I have to leave too. Boss An just goes to work."
An Zhixian: "Okay, Miss Lin invites you."
Gao Fan opened the stone door and stepped in first. Hong Jiu and Bai Zhi followed Lin Jinyan into the secret passage, followed closely by An Zhixian.
Lin Jinyan's vision suddenly dimmed, so she missed the steps and fell towards the ground.
Hong Jiu in front turned around quickly when he heard the sound, holding Lin Jinyan's arm. He squeezed Bai Zhi away with one hand behind him, and grabbed Lin Jinyan's other arm faster than Hong Jiu. When Lin Jinyan stabilized his body, he was supported by Bai Zhi. Stand firm, and immediately pull away the hand behind you.
Bai Zhi asked with concern: "Is the lady hurt?"
Lin Jinyan shook her head, turned around and nodded to An Zhixian:
"Thank you, Boss An."
An Zhixian sent a few people away with a gentle smile and stood at the intersection. He didn't see a few people until they could no longer be seen, then turned to look at the steps:
"Ling Shi, add a few more lights to the steps to illuminate them more."
After responding to the instructions, An Zhixian raised his hand and looked at his palm. It seemed that there was still residual heat through the fabric. He slowly clenched it into a fist, then looked at the direction Lin Jinyan was walking, and quickly left with his feet.
Returning to Buyehou, he went up to the second floor and knocked on the door. An Zhixian had his usual smile on his face:
"Tingping, I was busy just now and kept you waiting."
Chu Chengping, who was by the window, turned around with a complicated expression and looked at An Zhixian.
An Zhixian stepped forward and closed the window: "Look, it looks like it's going to snow. Closing it will make it warmer."
After saying that, seeing Chu Chengping still staring at him, An Zhixian smiled and said:
"What's going on? Does it look like you're troubled? Take off your cloak, sit down and say something."
Chu Chengping nodded, and after taking off his cloak, An Zhixian took it and hung it up.
When the tea was brewed, Chu Chengping had no intention of speaking, and An Zhixian didn't rush him. He poured hot tea for Chu Chengping and waited silently.
Chu Chengping was holding the tea cup. After learning the news, he rushed over non-stop, wanting to know whether it was true or not. He thought uneasily and thought about all kinds of things along the way, but he couldn't ask the question when he saw the person. What if the news was true...
