Han Yichen was stunned. There was a rare expression of stupefaction on his face.

  “It is my wish to find An Yue a gentler guy who knows how to love her tenderly, but An Yue seems to be a little stubborn. Even though she clearly knows it might just be a dream, she still would not give up even if she might have her heart broken in the end. So, if you let her down in the future, not just An Qi would not let you off, An Yue’s protectors would drown you with a mouthful of spittle. Of course, I’m the kind of person who hates trouble, I will just ruin your life directly.”


  Nie Yunfan was speechless. This woman might look gentle and fragile on the outside, he did not expect that she would be so ferocious inside! Tingfeng actually liked such a girl, no wonder he did not have any feelings when he had so many girls throw themselves at him before. His taste was so kinky.

  Xiao Jingyao was speechless. He knew the general manager was only warning Han Yichen to protect one of her best friends, but this guy in front of them was the president of Sheng Huang Group, their future business partner. Threatening him with the fact that she would ruin his life, is that really okay to do that?

  The good thing was that Han Yichen did not care too much about Zhao Youlin’s threat. When he heard Zhao Youlin say that a certain someone was still loyal to him, he already understood that Zhao Youlin was only joking with him just now.

  In fact, when he thought about it, based on his understanding of An Yue, she was not the kind of person who would easily fall in love with someone else, but he just panicked because he cared too much. Unknowingly, he himself did not even realize that that person had become so important to him.

  Han Yichen heaved a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, his expression became solemn as he said in an incredibly serious manner. “I am serious about her, so…it is not a dream. She does not need any protector. She has me is enough.”


  Zhao Youlin looked at Han Yichen deeply and sighed. “President Han, looks like you did not really get what I am trying to tell you. I am sure you know very well that An Yue feels very inferior compared to other girls, especially when she is facing you.”


  When Han Yichen heard this, his eyebrows could not help but tremble a little, but he did not say anything.

  “I am sure that you should have felt it too, that An Yue likes you.” Zhao Youlin glanced at Han Yichen. “But for her, you are too outstanding. She feels that she does not deserve you.”


  “But I do not think she does not deserve me. I…”


  “But she thinks that herself! You are handsome and very capable. When you were just a handyman in the shop, Xiao Yue already felt that she did not deserve you. Now that you are the president of Sheng Huang Group, you are wealthy and prestigious. If you cannot give her enough of a sense of security, her low self-esteem will get worse and worse, and she would be less and less happy.”


  Han Yichen’s expression changed slightly. Zhao Youlin’s words were like a warning bell that completely alerted him.

  “All this time, you have never made any promises to Xiao Yue. Perhaps you think that it is better to show your sincerity by taking action with some things. But for Xiao Yue, things that are expressed by actions reach her too slowly. Until you tell her your feelings, Xiao Yue will keep feeling insecure. Is that…what you want to see?”


  Han Yichen did not say anything, but the wavering and remorse in his eyes had already stated his attitude.

  Zhao Youlin smiled faintly. “Most of what I said just now, I actually heard it from An Qi.”


  Of course, most of the reason why she would say this to Han Yichen was also because she had her own personal agenda.

  After all, this man in front of her was very likely to become her family soon. She still understood the lesson of keeping goodies to your family.

  Although Han Yichen resembled Zhao Shunrong in all aspects, An Yue was not Duan Yarong. They were very different no matter in which aspect, if this matter was not handled carefully, it could easily backfire.

  “An Qi?” Han Yichen’s expression instantly became somewhat complicated.

  If one said that Zhao Youlin was just a good friend and benefactor to An Yue, then An Qi was definitely the most important person in the world to An Yue.

  Since An Qi said this to Zhao Youlin, could it be that she wanted to oppose An Yue and him being together? If that was really the case…a trace of panic was seen in Han Yichen’s eyes.

  Zhao Youlin nodded with a solemn expression on her face. An Qi might seem carefree and generous, but she was unusually sensitive when it came to certain things, especially when it was related to An Yue.

  “In addition to that, An Qi said that if I could see you before An Yue met with you again, she asked me to bring you a message.”


  “What’s the message?”


  “If you really love An Yue, then treat her well. Do not break her heart and make her sad. But if you are just feeling grateful to An Yue because she helped you, then please stay away from An Yue in the future. Don’t let her fall deeper and deeper for you because of the unconscious tenderness you showed her, that… would not do you or her any good.”


  Han Yichen’s eyes flickered slightly. A hint of anger rarely surfaced in his usually cold eyes. “I think I have made myself very clear.”


  Clear? He called that clear? If they had not seen him risking his own life to save An Yue, who would have known that he liked the girl?

  “Anyway, I have told you her message now. So you are on your own.”


  Han Yichen looked deeply at Zhao Youlin and suddenly said, “I will go back to her two days later, until then…”


  A trace of understanding crossed Zhao Youlin’s eyes. “I understand. I will not tell anyone that I saw you today. However…”


  Han Yichen frowned. “What?”


  “You will have to come over again tomorrow.”


  “Come over again?”


  “President Han, are you just going to ask me to sign my name in this contract that you brought here today? I am afraid that even if I did not mind, the senior management of our company would not agree.” Zhao Youlin pointed at the contract on the table and said with a faint smile.

  “Oh? Do you not trust her, Ms. Zhao?” Nie Yunfan, who had been watching the two silently on the side, suddenly got up and walked to Han Yichen’s side. He put one hand on Han Yichen’s shoulder and looked straight at the young girl opposite Han Yichen.

  Zhao Youlin did not care about the hostility hidden beneath in Nie Yunfan’s eyes at all. She smiled lightly and said, “This is not a matter of trust, but this is me being responsible for Zhao Enterprise and for you. If I had not asked any questions today and just signed the contract without even looking at it, with such a negligent and careless attitude, I am afraid you two would really have trouble trusting me.”


  Zhao Youlin’s explanations were reasonable and perfect!

  Nie Yunfan slightly narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Youlin for a while. He thought to himself secretly, the person that Mu Tingfeng liked was really not easy to deal with!
