...

Although Li Jie did not disturb them after she went out, even Yuxiaodi no longer had any playful thoughts. The two just lay on the bed embracing each other, but it was very pure, without any other actions, not even talking, just experiencing that feeling.

Yuxiaodi had gone through various emotional ups and downs today, so it was understandable she felt tired and stopped speaking. Li Yan was a bit surprised at himself, wondering why he too felt so at peace!

For the past two years, what he had been pursuing and searching for was the peace and stability of an ordinary person. He gradually achieved this, even if he married Zhang Yurong because of previous generation's connections, it was only a temporary mismatch. They each went their own way, even the acting at specific times had become second nature, yet none of it had the profound tranquility of this moment. He seemed to have forgotten everything, not caring about identity, age, or any other issues, just feeling his heart at peace in this way.

Can a woman really bring such tranquility?

Impossible, but that tranquility is often filled with a hint of restless emptiness and fatigue, which is completely different from the current experience. He was also a bit curious about why this was happening.

Chen Mingying probably mentioned on the phone that Zhou Yunfei brought people to continue following Yuxiaodi, and today's incident made him take it more seriously. He arranged for people to accompany Li Jie to send Yuxiaodi back, while he stayed to protect Chen Mingying.

Li Yan certainly didn't follow them back but parted ways with them at the hotel.

Although Yuxiaodi felt a little regretful, initially, it was supposed to be a beautiful weekend, winning tennis, and Li Yan coming to the school for fun. Unexpectedly, so many changes occurred, but being close to him for so long was an unexpected gain, enough for her to obediently go back and savor it.

...

After leaving the hotel, Li Yan drove back to the company. It's not like he suddenly had the perverse desire to work overtime, but because he planned to park the car in the company's parking lot as he wanted to switch cars.

He had previously bought a QQ because it was cheap and ordinary, sufficient for one person, but for the last half month, since Yuxiaodi, it has become quite eye-catching. Not only did it let Yuxiaodi have someone track it once on the road, but also it was followed by someone else another time. Especially today, he drove it to the repair shop for a wash, although he never left in the end, completed the full act before leaving, and was very cautious at all times in case of being followed, he couldn't ensure it wouldn't be remembered by someone with a motive. Thus, he decided not to use it temporarily, opting to take a taxi for a period.

The company building's parking lot is large, usually full of cars, but now on the weekend, only a small number are parked, leaving plenty of spaces. After parking the car, Li Yan lit a cigarette, planning to head out when he heard a suppressed voice talking on the phone, coming from a seemingly closed car window. Normally, he wouldn't pay much attention, but today's situation was a bit special, making him a little more cautious.

He carefully listened to the direction from which the sound came, then slowly walked over. In the high-level section of the company's parking area, he saw a figure in a black car.

From his angle, he couldn't see who was inside the car, but those inside could see him through the rearview mirror. He made no effort to avoid them and walked directly to the side. Whether or not it was a high-level company official, from a side view, one could recognize them.

"I tell you, this is the last time!… I won't help you next time…"

Getting a bit closer, Li Yan could vaguely hear the intentionally lowered voice, and it seemed like a voice he had heard before, making him take a couple more steps without making an excuse just to see.

Upon seeing, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Black long hair, black suit, black-framed glasses, black car... no one else in the company so favors black.

It was the administrative director, Hai Fu, so he didn't have to worry, certainly had nothing to do with him, and those following wouldn't have tracked someone of her level.

Just as he was about to leave the parking lot, Hai Fu lowered the car window and sharply said, "Hey! You, come here!"

"You calling me?" Li Yan looked around, finding himself alone in the whole parking garage.

"Talking to you, didn't you hear?" Hai Fu shouted in a low voice.

Li Yan frowned, walking up to her. He wanted to say: Master, don't take yourself too seriously, I am not afraid of you at work, let alone now when it's not working hours? But considering he might need to use her to suppress Ye Jiahong to protect his wife, he pondered for a more tactful response.

As he approached, Hai Fu's tone softened, "Do you have another cigarette? Give me one…"

Li Yan was taken aback, calling me over just for a cigarette? He thought she would ask for something more.

He didn't say anything and handed over the cigarette.

From her actions, it could be seen that even if she wasn't a regular smoker, she had smoked quite a lot before, but now clearly very emotional, her hands even trembled a bit.

After she took the cigarette, Li Yan timely lit it.

Hai Fu nodded at him, which was her way of saying thanks, as she wasn't used to verbally thanking employees.

Li Yan wasn't interested in knowing what agitated her so much, seeing she only needed a cigarette, he didn't press the matter further. After lighting her cigarette, he turned to leave.

Hai Fu didn't know whether she wasn't used to smoking Li Yan's stronger cigarettes or whether she was so agitated that she didn't pay attention. After only a couple of puffs, she was already coughing.

"Hey... is your name Sun Hui... no, Li Yan? Right?"

Li Yan turned his head to look at her and nodded.

"Come on, get in the car!" Hai Fu immediately said. Seeing that Li Yan didn't move, she remembered this wasn't at work and had to add, "I need you to do me a favor. Are you free?"

Li Yan instinctively wanted to refuse, no matter what kind of help it was, it wouldn't benefit him. But seeing her slightly trembling hand holding a cigarette, and considering Hai Fu's character and temper, if she could speak in such a way, it must be quite difficult for her. It seemed like a favor that required a man's help.

"I am free, but I'm just an idle person, not really capable of doing anything. I might not be able to help you, Hai Fu..."

Hearing his excuse, Hai Fu was a bit impatient, "You don't have to do anything, just accompany me to a place, accompany me there and back, that's all."

After understanding her request, Li Yan felt at ease and was ready to accompany her. Judging by her demeanor, was she going to find her husband's mistress, looking for someone to add to her presence?

Once he got into the car, Hai Fu immediately drove away.

Her driving style was as meticulous as her image; even when she was in a bad mood, she wouldn't drive recklessly like Yu Man. She left the company parking lot without speaking, only focusing on the road ahead.

Li Yan was not familiar with her and had no interest in asking more questions, only estimating in his heart how long her matter would take, whether it would delay his lunch.

After driving for over ten minutes, Hai Fu's mood had calmed considerably, which Li Yan deduced from her lighter grip on the steering wheel.

He broke the silence, "Mind if I listen to some music?"

"Sure."

He didn't turn on the radio but played a CD in the car. It was likely her favorite album and helped further soothe the already calmer situation.

Who is knocking on my window

Who is strumming the strings

That forgotten time

...

Just within a song's time, in Cai Qin's golden voice, Hai Fu's mood had become more tranquil.

"Li Yan, this isn't a business matter, it's a personal favor I'm asking. If you have any concerns, you don't have to go. If you do go, please forget about today!"

Hearing her words, Li Yan touched his chin, thinking: Why didn't you say so earlier? Leaving now would seem so ungrateful. "Don't worry, I won't say anything to anyone."

The car continued on, finally Hai Fu muttered to herself, "This should be it," then the car left the main road, heading to the side.

"This is where I need to go, to find someone. Later, accompany me upstairs!" Hai Fu said with her habitual commanding tone.

Li Yan was speechless. Not because of what she said, but because of this place itself! Taking a loop, he actually returned to the hotel he had just left! Talk about serendipity!

Hai Fu grabbed her bag and handed Li Yan a file to hold.

Entering the hotel, Li Yan slightly lowered his head, feeling embarrassed.

Fortunately, Hai Fu went directly to the elevator, not heading to the guest rooms but to a club on the seventh floor of the hotel.

Coming out on the seventh floor, the lights were dim, a staff member immediately came forward apologizing, "Hello, I'm sorry. Our club is not open yet. Please come back later..."

"I'm here to find someone! He's gambling here!" Hai Fu interrupted her, not stopping her steps, heading straight inside.

Gambling? Li Yan thought to himself, interesting, at least it wasn't some cheesy confrontation with a mistress.

The staff was stunned for a moment, then hurried to catch up, wearing a smile, raising his voice slightly, "Miss, you must be mistaken."

His louder voice alerted those inside. Several staff and guard-like figures immediately approached, casually blocking their path.

Hai Fu had to stop, adjusting her slightly loosened glasses, scanning them. "Someone was gambling here all night till now, losing and unable to leave. I'm here to bring money! Will you let me in?"

Quickly, someone sensible went to report to the superiors, a manager-looking person hurried over, inspected them, then dispersed the others, invited Hai Fu to the side, and whispered a few questions before putting on a smile, indicating for them to follow him.
