Ye Li’er had been embarrassed to such an extent and not to mention, Lu Jingye did not even bother to look back at her when he left while holding Zi Yi’s hand. This caused her to feel resentful deep down. She nodded and left with Rick and Dan Wei, leaving behind a group of guests and the mayor who were at a loss on what to do.

After Zi Yi’s group left the mayor’s house, Bu Di who had been unhappy all along, suddenly asked Sang Bo, “Why did you accept Dan Wei’s threat? We don’t have to be afraid of him, right?”

Sang Bo looked ahead and spoke in a deep voice. “Dan Wei is a very revengeful person. I’m not afraid that he might retaliate against me, I’m just afraid that he would do something underhanded and hurt you.”

Bu Di was momentarily stunned at his words and in the next second, he held his hand with a touched expression. “I… I didn’t imagine you would have such thoughts.”

Sang Bo glanced at Lu Jingye and Zi Yi. When he noticed that they did not reveal any uncomfortable reactions to their intimacy, he clenched Bu Di’s hand tighter.

Just then, Lu Jingye asked, “What are your future plans?”

Dan Wei would certainly take revenge, this was without a doubt.

Bu Di snorted. “I care about Sang Bo the most and I am his only family member left. We who have nothing to lose and do not fear those in power. If they were to drive us to a dead end, we’ll at most perish together. If they do not manage to get rid of us, we’ll send them to hell.”

Zi Yi heard what Bu Di said and asked, “Since the both of you only have each other, why don’t you leave Country Em?”

Bu Di said, “We have a jadeite mine here and we can’t possibly bring it with us. Otherwise we would have already gone to another country that accepts our relationship. Who would want to stay here and get looked down on by others?”

“You can sell the mine.”

Speaking of this, Zi Yi suddenly turned to look at Lu Jingye.

Lu Jingye raised his hand and touched her forehead. He then nodded and agreed with her. “What Yiyi says makes sense. If you wish to leave here, you can sell your jadeite mine.”

Sang Bo and Bu Di never had such thoughts before and now that Zi Yi brought it up, they started contemplating it.

Lu Jingye said, “It just so happens that it is an opportune time right now and you’ll be able to sell the mine at a better price than expected. You can consider this option.”

Sang Bo and Lu Jingye have a cooperative relationship together and Sang Bo had always admired Lu Jingye’s vision and skills in the business world. Now that Lu Jingye had mentioned this, he nodded his head. “I will think about it.”

On the other hand, ​Bu Di found Zi Yi and Lu Jingye’s suggestion to be a good one. “What’s there to think about? With so many people in the country right now, they are clearly here to compete with Lu. What Lu said is right, we can take out those mines and put them up for auction.”

Speaking of this, he added. “We can sell the mines to Lu and make it so that those people can only stare at us helplessly.”

“No need.” Lu Jingye rejected his offer but he did not mention the reason behind it.

Lu Jingye’s car was closer to the mayor’s main gate compared to Bu Di’s car. The four of them headed over to Lu Jingye’s car and stopped to talk.

Lu Jingye said, “Pay attention to your safety.”

His words were a reminder for them to pay attention to Dan Wei.

Sang Bo nodded his head and held Bu Di’s hand as they strode forward.

Bu Di turned around while walking and said, “Zi, I’ll come to find you to have a chat tomorrow. Ask that family member of yours not to stop me at the door next time.”

Zi Yi did not respond and instead, she glanced at Lu Jingye. She laughed when she saw the speechless expression on his face.

After they got in the car, Zi Yi asked what had happened in the main hall.

In fact, she had managed to guess the gist of it without even asking.

Lu Jingye told her about the situation in a narrative tone.

After Zi Yi knew the whole story, she snorted with displeasure. “It’s no wonder that group of women were trying to increase their sense of presence before me. As it turns out, Ye Li’er deliberately had it planned out.”

However, at the thought that there were women who fancied her husband everywhere he went, she muttered, “Say, you are such a boring person, so why did those women fall for you?”

“Perhaps it’s due to my identity.”

He was one of the Young Masters of the eight aristocratic families in the capital, coupled with his previous position as the President of the Lu Group, the top-ranked company worldwide. With such an identity, it was normal for him to have suitors everywhere he went.

This was what Lu Jingye thought.

Zi Yi looked at him with a bright gaze and said, “Don’t you think that your face accounts for half of the reason too?”

Lu Jingye’s lips curved up and he asked, “Does my wife fancy my appearance too?”

Zi Yi nodded honestly. “Yes, I like it.”

She then tilted her head and held his face in her hands before she gave him a deep kiss.

After she finished with the kiss, she moved back and smiled at him.

Lu Jingye could not deal with her and ended up holding her hands instead.

Zi Yi leaned her head on his shoulder and said, “Should we send a robot to help Bu Di?”

Even though this was their first meeting, Zi Yi felt that they were worth befriending.

“No need,” Lu Jingye said, “Sang Bo is not a kind person. The reason he compromised is because Bu Di was involved.”

Zi Yi thought about it for a moment and did not bring this up again anymore. She then changed the topic. “The detector I brought with me today did not detect Rick carrying any item that could interfere with my detectors. Shadow III and Shadow IV also did not manage to detect any suspicious people or special magnetic fields.”

Speaking of this, she looked up at Lu Jingye. “Say, could it be that the person behind him did not come and is still at the Bermuda Triangle?”

“That should be the case, otherwise Yunxiao would have come over too.”

Zi Yi leaned her head on his shoulder once again. “There’s another possibility that they are trying to separate us on purpose.”

“Mmh.” Lu Jingye had also guessed this. “If they have indeed divided themselves into two batches, we’ll resolve both sides.”

Zi Yi nodded her head.

Sure enough, Dan Wei had taken action very soon. At around 12 a.m., Lu Jingye’s phone suddenly rang.

He checked his phone and intended to get out of the bed without waking Zi Yi up.

However, she had woken up the moment he moved. She groggily asked, “Ah Jing, what’s wrong?”

Lu Jingye’s tone was very calm. “Someone is planning to break into our villa.”

Zi Yi merely gave a nod and said, “Don’t go down, let Shadow and the rest take care of them.”

“Those people are also headed to where my subordinates are staying.”

Lu Jingye’s subordinates were staying somewhere near their villa.

Zi Yi wanted to tag along but Lu Jingye pressed down on her shoulders. “Don’t get up, I’ll return soon.”

Zi Yi had just fallen asleep and she indeed did not wish to get up. Therefore, she responded with an affirmative before going back to sleep.

Lu Jingye got down from the bed, got dressed, and went out.

At that moment, Zi Yi’s invisible robots were all standing in the courtyard.

“Master.”

Lu Jingye nodded his head and asked, “Where are those people?”

A screen appeared before Shadow and reflected on the screen were the locations of those people.

Lu Jingye glanced at the screen and said, “Take care of them.”

He then called out his personal invisible robots and said, “Go protect my subordinates.”

The robots responded and immediately left.

Lu Jingye did not leave. He stood in the courtyard and waited for some time before he heard screams from outside.

The sounds of the screams lasted for quite some time before they finally stopped. Lu Jingye took out his phone and said to the bodyguards he brought along, “Throw these people to where Rick is staying and give him a return gift.”
