  On the way home, Yan Nuo sat in the passenger seat and stared out of the window in a daze.

  “Do you care about Yinbing?” Yan Nuo heard their conversation.

  Yan Nuo shook his head and said righteously, “She’s my slave.”


  Yan Nuo shook her head and smiled again. She was laughing at his low EQ.

  She was my little slave…


  Look at what he said. Ji Yinbing was not the only slave in the manor. Why didn’t he protect everyone like this?

  “Yan Nuo.” Yan Yu called his name. Yan Nuo looked at his sister sideways with a probing gaze. His words became serious and she said, “Yinbing is very good.”


  Yan Nuo still did not understand what she meant.

  He said, “She’s my chosen little slave, of course she’s good.”


  Yan Yu was speechless.

  You’ll be single for the rest of your life if you’re so stupid.

  After returning home, Yan Nuo was not in a hurry to return to his room. Instead, he went to Ji Yinbing’s bedroom. He had many things to ask her.

  He knocked on the door and it opened quickly. Ji Yinbing stood behind the door and asked him, “Master, you’re back?”


  “You went to the competition venue today?” Yan Nuo asked with a sullen expression.

  Ji Yinbing shook her head. “No, I went to the back mountain for training. Many people saw it.” The expression on her face was very natural. If Yan Nuo had not seen it with his own eyes, he would have believed it.

  However, Yan Nuo did not listen to her nonsense.

  The little slave dared to lie to him.

  Yan Nuo was a little angry. He looked at Ji Yinbing deeply and finally suppressed his desire to teach Ji Yinbing a lesson. He then lectured her meaningfully, “Be careful in the future. If you leave any traces, I won’t be able to protect you.”


  Ji Yinbing’s heart skipped a beat, but she pretended to be confused.

  Her acting skills were really on point.

  Yan Nuo did not expose her lie. He pushed her away and walked into her room.

  The bedroom was originally very small, but because of Yan Nuo’s entrance, it instantly looked even narrower. Ji Yinbing followed behind Yan Nuo like an obedient child and did not make a sound. Yan Nuo examined Ji Yinbing’s room. Her room was very clean, and there were not many things that girls should have. There were quite a lot of books in the room.

  He realized that there was a pile of English books and medical information beside the desk.

  Yan Nuo was surprised. He sized up the books and asked Ji Yinbing, “You want to get into the Medical University?”


  Ji Yinbing said, “No, I want to go to Harvard.”


  She was fearless and her tone was arrogant.

  Yan Nuo was speechless.

  “Good luck.”


  In the end, Yan Nuo still could not help but ask Ji Yinbing curiously, “Do you know what Harvard is?”


  “University!” Ji Yinbing’s reaction was very calm.

  Yan Nuo asked again, “Have you heard of Harvard?”


  “Yes, I’ve heard of it.” After a pause, Ji Yinbing said, “I heard you say it before.”


  Yan Nuo’s chest sank. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed like she did not even know what Harvard was. Yan Nuo took out a medical book and sat down beside Ji Yinbing’s bed. Under him, Ji Yinbing’s small bed looked exceptionally small.

  Yan Nuo casually flipped through the book in his hand. As he flipped through it, he read the annotations written by Ji Yinbing. Lowering his head, Yan Nuo told her, “Harvard University is the best university in the world. It’s No. 1.”


  With that, he looked up and stared deeply at Ji Yinbing. “It’s as difficult as ascending to heaven for you to enter Harvard.”


  Ji Yinbing opened her mouth wide in surprise. After a while, she said, “I still have to take the exam.” She wanted to go overseas and see the world.

  Yan Nuo’s gaze changed. In the end, he said in an indescribable tone, “Your courage is commendable.”


  He closed the book and stared at the girl in front of him for a long time.

  Ji Yinbing was embarrassed by his gaze. Her face turned red, and her heart raced. Her legs were trembling. Only then did Yan Nuo agree to walk around her. He shifted his gaze and looked at the papers on the table. He suddenly asked, “Why didn’t you tell me that Vera stole your earrings?”


  Ji Yinbing fell silent.

  Yan Nuo suddenly raised his voice. “Speak.”


  Finally, Ji Yinbing explained.

  She said, “Master treats me very well. I like Master. I don’t want to be chased away.” When Ji Yinbing said that she liked Yan Nuo, her gaze was clear. A young girl’s thoughts were pure and clean. She did not refer to romantic love.

  Yan Nuo glanced at her.

  He looked into her clear eyes and felt a little empty inside.

  What was he looking forward to?

  What did he want to see in her eyes?

  Yan Nuo didn’t understand.

  Ji Yinbing continued explaining. “They said that Miss Vera will be the future mistress. I’m indeed angry that she took what the master gave me, but she’s the future mistress. I can’t snatch it or seek justice from her.”


  “Master is so good to me but the future mistress snatched a pair of my earrings. I…” Her voice became so soft that it was barely audible. “I can forgive her.”


  Logically speaking, Yan Nuo should be happy that the little slave was so considerate. However, for some reason, he felt irritated after hearing this.

  She kept mentioning the future mistress…


  “Who said she’s my future wife?”


  Ji Yinbing said, “Everyone says so.”


  “You think so too?”


  Ji Yinbing hesitated for a moment before daring to be honest. She said, “I think Miss Vera is not worthy of you.”


  Yan Nuo smiled.

  That smile was like the blooming of a snow lotus on an ice mountain. The sun shone on the snow lotus, and the petals were transparent. It was breathtakingly beautiful.

  Ji Yinbing could not help but take a few more glances.

  However, she quickly stopped.

  He stood up and said, “See you at the training ground tomorrow morning.” Then, he walked back to his room.

  From the beginning to the end, he did not interrogate Ji Yinbing about any of her traces this afternoon.

  He still doted on his little slave.

  The next day before dawn, Ji Yinbing ran with the mercenaries. However, the atmosphere this morning was a little serious. Ji Yinbing asked a young man called Ah Ka, “What’s wrong today?”


  Ah Ka did not expect Ji Yinbing to talk to him.

  Ji Yinbing rarely spoke. They had been running together for many years, and this was the first time Ji Yinbing spoke to him.

  Ah Ka regained his senses and said to Ji Yinbing, “Today is the assessment day.”


  “Oh.” Ji Yinbing was already used to the monthly test.

  Ah Ka added, “It’s the ultimate test that decides whether we stay or go.”


  Ji Yinbing was stunned.

  Today?

  After a while, Yan Nuo, and the three demon coaches appeared.

  Today, Yan Nuo and Yan Yu had taken off their private clothes and were wearing the same training camouflage clothes as the coaches. Without any nonsense, Yan Yu only said, “Pass the test and you can stay and become a member of the Black Fiend. Those who fail will be eliminated and have to leave this place.”


  Then, Yan Nuo announced, “The assessment begins now.”


  Before Ji Yinbing could understand what the assessment was, the youth called Ah Ka suddenly attacked her.

  He punched Ji Yinbing’s chest mercilessly.

  Ji Yinbing took two steps back and almost fell.
