The Female CEO Falls in Love with Me

When Li Yan left, he received a call from Yu Xiaodi on his mobile phone.

"Li Yan, have you left? I'm back at the dormitory, and Li Jie is still here." When she drove out, it helped her release some of the shadows of being kidnapped again, but back at the dormitory, she still felt uneasy.

Li Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't stay in the dormitory. Get Li Jie to come out with you. I'll wait for you at the north gate of S University."

"Okay!" Yu Xiaodi trusted him greatly, so much so that she could trust the completely unfamiliar Li Jie because of him.

Driving to the north gate of S University, Li Yan had only the time to smoke a cigarette before a Honda parked beside him, with Li Jie and Yu Xiaodi in the car.

Li Yan immediately made a gesture, indicating that they didn't need to get out of the car and to follow him forward. Then, he drove ahead, turning into a nearby five-star hotel.

Both Li Jie and Yu Xiaodi found his actions a bit odd, and they followed him into the hotel with full of questions.

"Let's go in!"

Li Yan went straight into the lobby.

It was the weekend, at a time when the hotel was fully booked. They managed to get a room only because someone checked out.

In the freshly cleaned room, Yu Xiaodi gave him a light smack, feigning a bit of coquettishness. "Hey! Mister, why'd you bring us to a place like this?"

Li Jie didn't speak, instinctively checking everything in the room.

"Sit down! Just finding a convenient place for you to take a break."

"Me? Rest? I'm not tired!" Yu Xiaodi found it a bit odd, sitting on a bed. Although she was a bit nervous and scared earlier, once Li Yan arrived, she felt no fear.

Li Yan ignored her, seeing Li Jie sitting on the other bed, he then sat down himself and said directly, "Someone among your classmates or friends sold you out."

"What? How could that be?!" Yu Xiaodi almost jumped up, "I admit they know my family is rich, but why sell me out?"

"You explain today's situation to her," Li Yan said to Li Jie.

"Why me?" Li Jie asked briefly.

"Come on, I only called you a dummy once! No need to hold a grudge or act cool. You're her bodyguard. If you don't explain, who will?" Li Yan tossed a bottle of mineral water to Yu Xiaodi, then opened one himself.

"Bodyguard?" Yu Xiaodi looked at them two in surprise, "Isn't she your sister?"

Li Yan almost choked on his water, "Have you ever seen such a handsome brother with such a... ghost-like sister?"

"I'm not his sister!" Li Jie said, also rather frustrated.

"Sorry, sorry!" Yu Xiaodi stuck out her tongue, "I saw Sister Jie with such good skills and affectionately called her a fool... uh. I thought you called her to save me because you don't have a sister."

Li Yan was shocked by her 'Sister Jie,' akin to calling him 'Brother Yan.'

Afraid that Yu Xiaodi would continue and he'd be further 'injured,' Li Jie had to speak up first, "I'm not working for your parents. The situation today was indeed meticulously planned. They had different people playing various roles, someone to lure you, someone to close the door, someone to drive, someone to disrupt the scene and deal with the aftermath... Knowing that you'd go to play tennis today and that you'd chase after that racket, they must have done thorough research."

Yu Xiaodi's face didn't look good. Today's match was only agreed upon with Jiang Wen a couple of days ago. Only the familiar girls in her dorm knew about her attachment to that racket. Could someone really have sold her out? It's terrifying to have such people around!

Li Jie added, "This is only a possibility. They might have also investigated you thoroughly. Knowing your hobbies isn't strange, and knowing about your match today—many people witnessed it."

As she spoke, she cast a challenging look at Li Yan.

Li Yan glared at her, "Don't look at me; I'm not a detective. I just plan for the worst! Like discussing this by the school gate could expose us to an accident, say a truck accidentally crashing into us. Though unlikely, this environment is safer."

Seeing her unpleasant expression, at only nineteen, stepping into a wider connection at university only to encounter this kind of situation, she might be wary and suspicious of people in the future. Li Yan decided to say more, "Did you tell Old Zhou about the situation on the phone? Ask him to investigate, see what the situation is. Maybe someone asked about Xiao Di's whereabouts under the guise of pursuing her. If those girls spoke of it, it's not a grave betrayal. Knowing who's responsible, you won't have to fear interacting with people in the future."

Yu Xiaodi gave him a grateful look, growing more convinced that Li Yan understood her the best, knowing he was what she needed most.

"Is that... all?" Yu Xiaodi, being quite cheerful, quickly adjusted her emotions.

"Of course not. Aren't you curious about this mysterious bodyguard of yours? After you left, aren't you interested in knowing what happened with the car accident?"

"I am!" Yu Xiaodi's interest was immediately piqued.

Li Yan briefly recapped the recent "accident," highlighting how he almost damaged his car and had to ask for compensation, while the fire incident was briefly mentioned.

Yu Xiaodi didn't pay much attention, while Li Jie obviously grasped a few more things.

Li Jie, pure-hearted, lowered her head in silence.

Li Yan, also pure-hearted, lowered his head in silence.

"Previously, you..." Yu Xiaodi started to ask, then shook her head, "Never mind, won't ask about your matters."

Li Yan took a breath and nodded seriously, "Why not ask her?"

"This isn't a toy! Can't be left with you!"

"Oh, I haven't played with it much."

Li Yan couldn't help laughing, "Hehe, be careful."

Li Jie ignored him, directly declaring, "I'll go make a call. You'd better go home for safety now. I'll keep watch outside!"

"Hey! Wait a minute, can you brush away your hair so we can see your real face? Otherwise, next time, we might mistake you for an enemy and beat you up."

Yu Xiaodi also turned curious, "Yeah, I also want to see what you look like."

Face covered by scattered hair, Li Jie said coolly, "I'm not a beauty; nothing worth seeing. Keeping low-key and in disguise allows me to stay hidden to protect the target."

Having said that, she swiftly left the room, not wanting to play third wheel.

"Satisfied with this bodyguard?"

Yu Xiaodi smiled wryly, "Definitely better than the previous stiff ones. But her personality seems a bit boyish..."

Li Yan thought, the tough woman Zhou Yunfei hired isn't meant to be gentle, is she? "She might even be a 'fake girl.'

"'Fake girl?'

"A guy, haven't you heard her say she needs to stay disguised? Maybe she's cross-dressing today." Li Yan joked.

"No way?"

"Yes," Li Yan nodded seriously, "It's easier for you to confirm than me."

"..."

Is that possible? Yu Xiaodi widened her eyes.

Li Yan sweated profusely, not expecting to be teased by this girl.

Seeing his expression, Yu Xiaodi laughed happily and leaned close to him, whispering, "You've saved me again. You won't ask my family for a reward, and I can't save you in return. What about me, since I have nothing else to give, I devote myself to you, is that okay?"
