After she realized that her plan had backfired and that she had shot herself in the foot, a sullen expression formed on her face.

However, there was nothing she could do now and nothing she said mattered anymore.

After they were brought away, No. 5 said, “Just what happened?”

No. 8 looked at him and said, “They’re here to cause trouble.”

“People like her ought to be taught a good and hard lesson. She’s asking for it!”

“I’ve already told Sis about this. No. 5, I want to go home. Help me settle the administrative procedures to get me discharged.”

“Okay.”

As soon as An Xiaoning ended the call with Pan Zhenghui, she received a call from Pei Yi.

She asked, “What is it?”

“What are you doing in Y Nation?”

“I went out to take a breather. What’s wrong?”

“Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to return home after going abroad?” Pei Yi gibed in a low voice.

“Not at all. Just what did you call me for?”

“Nothing much, I just wanted to see you. Coincidentally... I’m in Y Nation too.”

“I don’t feel like seeing you. I’m hanging up now if there’s nothing else.”

“Wait a minute! Why are you so impatient when talking to me over the phone?” Pei Yi questioned, slightly peeved.

“I just feel like there’s no need for us to talk on the phone, unless it’s for something major. What do you want to tell me?”

“I’m not the only one who’s here. Like I told you before, there’s someone who wants to kill you and Jin Qingyan. That someone is here too. Are you still not bothered by his presence?”

Xihou Jiaping?

An Xiaoning looked at Jin Qingyan and asked, “How are you so clear about his whereabouts? Doesn’t this just prove that you and he are indeed in cahoots with each other?”

“Regardless of whether or not we’re in cahoots, he’s different from me. I don’t want to kill you. Isn’t that so?”

An Xiaoning agreed with that point he had made. If Pei Yi had wanted to kill her, she would have died in his hands long ago.

She mellowed her tone and said nicely, “Since he’s in Y Nation too, I doubt I’m going to get to have any fun. I’m heading back to S Nation.”

“Do you think you can hide from him if he really wants to kill you?”

“Heaven shall decide. I’m going to have my meal soon. I’m hanging up right now,” said An Xiaoning. Every single time she spoke to Pei Yi over the phone, she would hang up before he even gets to reply.

He would never call her back either.

“Pei Yi said that Xihou Jiaping is here too. Shall we head home today? Tianze and Yangyang may stay since they’d like to have some fun. They’re not Xihou Jiaping’s targets anyway.”

“I really can’t figure out what this Pei Yi is thinking,” he said, handing her a plate over the table.

An Xiaoning grabbed it and picked up a fork to place a piece of cake into her mouth. “Do you find him to be very peculiar?”

“If he’s in cahoots with Xihou Jiaping, there’s no reason for him to leak the news to you, unless... he’s doing it for his own selfish reasons.”

“Shall we go back today?”

“Don’t change the subject. We’re talking about Pei Yi.”

Pursing her lips, An Xiaoning said, “I don’t wish to talk about him. Who cares what reasons he’s doing it for? I don’t care.”

Jin Qingyan’s eyes glistened, and he gazed at her affectionately. “You’ve got cream on your lips,” he said.

She reached out in a bid to wipe it away. Before she could even do so, Jin Qingyan stuck a hand out and beat her to it.

“I think we’d better go back today. It so happens that some things had happened at home too. One is the issue with Erlan’s contract and the other is No. 8’s incident.”

“I heard from Byron that his cousin is a real piece of work. She’s not going to take it lying down after losing out to you. She’s not one to be trifled with, be careful.”

“I know.”

Mei Yangyang and Long Tianze were no longer in the mood for a vacation after hearing that the two of them were planning to head home. They felt that it was dangerous being abroad now that Jin Qingyan and An Xiaoning were leaving. They no longer had a sense of security. Hence, after a discussion, they decided to return home as well.

“Sis, if only we knew earlier. We should’ve just gone back with Erlan. I reckon she’s almost home now.”Read more chapter on v ipnovel. com

“It’s not too late for us now either.” An Xiaoning took a look at the time and continued, “It’s still early. Qingyan, arrange for the private jet to pick us up. Let’s pack our belongings and head home immediately.”

“Alright.”

Despite having packed their luggage quickly and rushed out to embark on their journey toward the airport, they were still faced with an obstacle.

There were several cars surrounding the one that An Xiaoning and the rest were in.

They were sandwiched in between the cars, and there was no way to escape.

The doors of one of the cars obstructing them opened, and a burly figure alighted. It was none other than Pei Yi.

He was staring at the window of their car and walking toward them.

Everyone remained still and watched as he approached on his own.

Pei Yi stopped in front of the window and said, “What’s wrong, Ms. An? Aren’t you going to get out of the car to have a chat with your old friend?”

Before An Xiaoning could even answer, Jin Qingyan interjected coldly, “What’s there to chat about with you? Old friend? It’s time you kick the habit of assuming one-sided friendships.”

Pei Yi glared at him and gibed, “I wasn’t talking to you, please don’t interrupt as and when you’d please.”

“Psht...” Jin Qingyan gave him the side-eye and sneered, “I’m sorry, but I have every right to interrupt.”

Pei Yi ignored him and instead said to An Xiaoning, “Come out, I have something to ask you.”

Although An Xiaoning did not know Pei Yi too well, she still understood him to a certain extent and was well aware that he would not allow them to proceed if she did not comply.

Hence, she patted the back of Jin Qingyan’s hand and alighted from the car.

With a straight face, Jin Qingyan watched as An Xiaoning got inside Pei Yi’s car.

Mei Yangyang was seated in the passenger’s seat. The moment An Xiaoning left, Long Tianze patted Jin Qingyan’s shoulder and said, “Aren’t you going to go down to take a look?”

“Look at what?”

“What if Pei Yi takes Sis-in-law away?”

“He wouldn’t dare to do that right in front of me.”

“There are only so few of us. We’re outnumbered. What’s there that he wouldn’t dare to do?”

Staring at him from the corner of his eye, Jin Qingyan said, “Shall we have a bet? I bet that he won’t take Xiaoning away.”

“I won’t bet with you. It’s a sure loss for me whenever I make bets with you.”

“So what if we’re outnumbered? This is not M Nation or R Nation, what can he do?”

Long Tianze leaned his head against the window and said to Mei Yangyang, “Honey, let’s have a vacation back in our country. I haven’t had enough fun or rest yet.”

“Vacation, my ass. I still have a ton of things to handle.”

“Leave Sis-in-law to handle Erlan’s matters. Just go and have fun with me.”

“No. We’ll go on a vacation again when Sis and Mr. Jin finally have the time to join us. It’s too boring with just the two of us.”
