Listening to Liu Zixuan and Zhu Yi's conversation that seemed to hold deeper meanings, Liu Ruyan frowned slightly, "Why do I feel something's off?"

"Men are always like this, they love to be mysterious."

Jiang Yiyi held Liu Ruyan's hand, laughing playfully, "Especially this Liu Zixuan. Ruyan, my dear, let me tell you, don't get too close to him, or he'll take advantage of you!"

"Ahem..." Liu Ruyan laughed awkwardly. But what should she do now that he'd already taken advantage of her? It's embarrassing to say it out loud in front of so many people.

Liu Zixuan grinned, "No, what we're talking about has nothing to do with Ruyan and me, right?"

"How does it not relate?"

This sentence was said simultaneously by Jiang Yiyi and Zhu Yi.

Jiang Yiyi stood up, with her hands clasped behind her back, in a knowing manner, and seriously said, "Just now, you said that currently, in Yuqing City, there are mainly four people stirring up things!"

"First is the Wang Family, then the Hao Family, followed by Ruyan's family, and then Mr. Zhu. From this perspective, it seems unrelated to you, but if you think about it carefully, it's quite related."

"What relationship?" Liu Ruyan asked out of curiosity.

Jiang Yiyi smiled, "First, Ruyan and Liu Zixuan have an ambiguous relationship, and in others' eyes, they seem like a couple, while that young master from the Wang Family happens to be Ruyan's suitor, and Mr. Zhu is now your friend!"

"So now, you're standing right at the center of the storm, in this power vortex, where everyone is watching!"

"Doesn't that make Zixuan very dangerous?" Liu Ruyan finally realized.

Jiang Yiyi was silent for a moment, then nodded, "You could say that."

Liu Ruyan instantly regretted it. She hadn't thought much in the beginning, just wanted to be with someone she liked, and thought this way she wouldn't have to marry Wang Zilin, whom she didn't fancy.

But she never expected that she would push Liu Zixuan into such a dangerous whirlpool.

"Mr. Jiang also left something out."

Zhu Yi grinned, he didn't want to rub salt into the wound, but the fact... needed to be stated.

"Liu Zixuan doesn't have any relationship with that Hao Family, does he?" Jiang Yiyi asked somewhat surprised.

Liu Zixuan pursed his lips, "There's a bit of a small relation."

"What relation? If it's a good one, that's great. In that case, with Mr. Zhu and the Hao Family helping you, maybe you could deal with the Liu Family and the Wang Family." Jiang Yiyi said excitedly.

Liu Zixuan spread his hands, "Unfortunately, you've got it wrong. The only heir of the Hao Family just ended up in jail because of me, now their whole family would love to see me dead!"

"Tsk tsk, you really are out of luck." Jiang Yiyi was truly helpless. However, she didn't show much worry.

Liu Ruyan held Liu Zixuan's hand, tears filling her eyes, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you've ended up like this."

"Silly girl, it's not because of you. I'm a man, after all. Besides, without some hurdles on life's journey, wouldn't it be too boring?" Liu Zixuan laughed freely.

"Village Chief Liu, actually you don't need to worry too much. Liu the Miracle Doctor has his blessings, he'll be fine. Besides, I'll be helping him too."

Zhu Yi had another sentence he didn't say, that there's actually another person helping Liu Zixuan, and that's Wang Kun!

"Young Zixuan?" Jiang Yiyi raised an eyebrow at Liu Zixuan, throwing him a peculiar look.

"What?"

"Does this young lady need to help you?" Jiang Yiyi asked with unusual arrogance, "Just bow to this young lady, and solving those families would only take one phone call from me."

"I'm so cool, do you think I'd bow to a little girl like you? And just one phone call, look at your current situation..."

Liu Zixuan snorted with laughter, and this conversation between the two eased the awkward atmosphere in the room.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yiyi was immediately displeased, walked over, and asked, "Are you questioning this young lady's abilities?"

"It's not like I've never seen your abilities. Don't forget this morning..." Liu Zixuan's eyes playfully glanced at a certain full part of Jiang Yiyi's body, "But indeed, quite capable."

"You!"

Jiang Yiyi's face turned red, he was talking about abilities, not that kind of abilities, okay! She stomped her foot hard, "Couldn't care less about you, with your current situation, just wait for the Wang Family to send people to beat you up, by then I'll just stand on the side and cheer!"

"Great, with your cheering, I'll show even more of my manly charm." Liu Zixuan smiled playfully.

"Truly an unscrupulous guy!" Jiang Yiyi simply turned her head away, refusing to talk more.

"Alright, alright, let's eat, we're just discussing things. And it's not that bad." Zhu Yi noticed the atmosphere was not right and quickly changed the subject with a smile.

"Eat, eat, eat. You need energy to solve problems once you're full."

Liu Zixuan served Liu Ruyan a large lobster, "Stop worrying, focus on figuring out how to handle the affairs of Lingxiu Village."

"Yes, Village Chief Liu, you weren't there when we discussed yesterday, let's talk about it today." Zhu Yi explained the investment plans for over there, which drew Liu Ruyan out from the previous conversation.

Upon knowing Zhu Yi was to invest over there, she was very happy and toasted to Zhu Yi.

After eating, Jiang Yiyi said she wanted Liu Ruyan to take her to buy some clothes. Actually, Jiang Yiyi hadn't been in Yuqing City for long, and with her funds previously frozen, she hadn't bought much. Now with those ten thousand dollars, of course, she wanted to spend a bit.

Liu Ruyan thought for a moment, feeling quite bored staying there, so she went along.

Liu Zixuan and Zhu Yi didn't stay in the restaurant either and found a tea house to sit down in.

The quiet and relaxed atmosphere gradually calmed his heart.

Zhu Yi laughed, "Who would've thought, you'd be roped into this dispute for no reason."

"Actually... it was to be expected." Liu Zixuan shrugged, back when he left the mountain, his beautiful master said he'd have to protect Liu Ruyan, and he should have anticipated things like this would happen back then.

"I have a question I'd like to ask you." Zhu Yi raised his head.

"Just say it straight. No need to be polite with me." Liu Zixuan spread his hands.

"In this position, you'll inevitably face the Liu Family in the future. But after all, they are Liu Ruyan's parents. Have you thought about how to handle this?"

Listening to Zhu Yi's words, Liu Zixuan fell silent.

Although he knew they weren't Liu Ruyan's biological parents, they had raised her for so many years, and when confronted, he indeed needed to weigh it carefully.

He'd have to consider more for Liu Ruyan.

Indeed, that's a choice to be made!
