Even so, Zhao Youlin could not simply tell everyone that. In the end, she could only accompany An Yue and buy children’s toys while acting as a third wheel between her elder brother and sister-in-law. Watching the two of them being publicly affectionate in silence was very unpleasant. Of course, the one who was the most unhappy was President Mu, who had originally planned to spend the weekend alone with his wife. However, he was caught up in work and could only watch helplessly as Zhao Youlin accompanied An Yue and An Yue.

  When the president was unhappy, the one who suffered the most was a certain someone who had recently suffered a salary cut, had to work overtime on a weekend, and most importantly, had to face Mu Tingfeng’s cold face. It was Mighty Secretary Xia, who was shivering from the cold. Shopping for girls was the most time-consuming affair, especially when it was for their children. Naturally, they would choose carefully and compare products. Zhao Youlin followed the couple like a rat’s tail. She was blinded by the couple’s display of affection as she silently melded into the background.

  Occasionally, An Yue would turn around and ask Zhao Youlin for her opinion when she saw something. Zhao Youlin did not know what kind of things children liked. She could only give an appropriate answer. “Ah, it looks pretty good. Joy really likes this. Oh, this. I think I saw it at Xiao He’s place before. It should be pretty

  good.”


  An Yue did not mind. She smiled and turned around to ask Han Yichen for his opinion. The result was obvious. All the things that An Yue had picked up were stuffed into the shopping cart.

  Zhao Youlin was carrying two big bags with both hands. She glanced at the two bags in Han Yichen’s hands that were even bigger than her and silently complained, “This evil capitalist and rich man.”


  The three of them returned with bags of various sizes. When they walked to the car, An Yue suddenly shouted. The two of them were so scared that they almost flung away the things in their hands. They asked in a loud voice, “What’s wrong?”


  An Yue smiled embarrassedly and said in a low voice, “That…… that…… I think I forgot to take my bag from the counter just now.”


  Han Yichen heaved a sigh of relief. He first threw the things in his hands into the trunk before he comforted her, “Wait here, I’ll go and

  get it.”


  An Yue nodded obediently and lowered her head to touch her round belly. “My dear.”


  Before Han Yichen left, he even winked at Zhao Youlin, telling her to keep an eye on An Yue.

  Zhao Youlin nodded. The two of them watched as Han Yichen left. Zhao Youlin turned around and was about to throw the things in her hand into the trunk when the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from behind.

  Zhao Youlin quickly turned her head and saw a group of people rushing out from the side aggressively. It was obvious that they were not friendly!

  An Yue had never seen such a group of people before. She was shocked and reflexively took a few steps back. Her body swayed, and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Zhao Youlin was able to help her in time.

  As soon as she saw the group of people rushing out, Zhao Youlin quickly threw all the things in her hands into the trunk and rushed to An Yue’s side in a flash.

  In just a short while, those people all rushed over and surrounded Zhao Youlin and An Yue. Zhao Youlin and An Yue were surrounded by them.

  Only then did Zhao Youlin realize that these people were all holding weapons in their hands. Although they didn’t have guns, knives and sticks looked really scary.

  “Youlin……” An Yue was so scared that she shrank back. The scene of Xie Yuqing holding a knife and pressing down on her was once again in front of her eyes, making her lose her composure.

  Zhao Youlin glanced at the crowd surrounding her. There were only seven or eight people in total, but each one of them was tall and strong. They looked like martial artists.

  Most importantly, if she was alone, it would be fine. She still had a chance of winning, but there was still An Yue who was pregnant behind her.

  An Yue was almost well into full term. If something were to bump into her, it could go very bad. Zhao Youlin’s sharp eyes swept over the men and quickly settled on the car not far behind her. A glimmer of light suddenly flashed across her eyes.

  “Little girl, we want the woman behind you. You’d better be sensible and quickly move aside. Otherwise, the knives in our hands won’t discriminate. It’s not our fault if you get hurt.”


  These people had been spying on An Yue for some time, but An Yue rarely ever left the house. Whenever she did go out, Han Yichen would be with her. How could this group of people let go of such a good opportunity?

  When the man leading the group said this, Zhao Youlin and An Yue were stunned. An Yue was the first to react, she grabbed Zhao Youlin’s hand tightly and said in a low voice, “You…… Youlin, their target is me. Quickly go in and find Ah Chen. I…… I’ll buy time.”


  Zhao Youlin was stunned. She looked at An Yue who was so scared that her face was pale, but still determined not to implicate others. She couldn’t help but smile and said in a low voice, “Do you trust me, Yue Yue?”


  “Huh?” An Yue widened her eyes and looked at Zhao Youlin in a daze. She nodded slightly.

  “If you really don’t want to get me into trouble, don’t look back. Just think about running into our car. Being able to get into the car would help me the most.”


  “But, Youlin……” An Yue wanted to speak more, but Zhao Youlin had already taken her hand and walked a few steps to the car. Before the two men guarding the car could react, she kicked one of them, opened the car door and carefully pushed An Yue inside.

  Everyone present, including An Yue, was shocked by Zhao Youlin’s sudden actions. An Yue staggered and did not get into the car.

  The others also came back to their senses and saw Zhao Youlin’s intentions. They looked at each other and rushed towards Zhao Youlin and An Yue.

  Zhao Youlin urged An Yue to get into the car quickly while turning around to deal with the men who were rushing towards her.

  At first, the men didn’t think much of Zhao Youlin because she was a slender and little girl. However, when they saw Zhao Youlin kick two of their brothers and then turn around to trip over one of their brothers with a fierce kick, they quickly took her seriously. Each of them picked up their weapons and attacked Zhao Youlin fiercely.

  Fortunately, although Zhao Youlin rarely got physical in the past year, her skills barely deteriorated. Even when she fought against five people, she was not at a disadvantage.

  However, at that moment, a scream came from behind.

  Zhao Youlin’s expression changed slightly. She turned her head and saw An Yue sitting in front of the half-opened car door. Her ankle had been grabbed by someone and she couldn’t move.

  The person who grabbed her ankle was one of the two people that Zhao Youlin had kicked down just now.
