Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Chapter 1388 - Chen Yichen

Chapter 1388: Chen Yichen

Yun Xi had just stepped out of the restaurant and was about to hail a taxi back to the residential compound where the Yun family lived when a black sedan suddenly stopped in front of her.

The car window in the back seat was slowly rolled down, revealing a kind and charming face. The man smiled at her, then leaned over and stretched out his hand to push the car door open. “Yun Xi, get in!”

Yun Xi glanced at Chen Yichen who was sitting inside the car and nodded. Then she joined him in the back seat.

“What are you doing out on such a cold day?” As soon as she got in the car, Chen Yichen asked the driver to turn up the heat. Then he turned to look at the fluffy figure wrapped in a khaki down jacket sitting beside him.

“Han Yaotian kept pestering my friend at school asking to meet me, so I had no choice but to meet with him.”

After warming up, Yun Xi turned to look at the man beside her. “What a coincidence, running into you here of all places. What brings the Eldest Heir to this part of town?”

Only then did she take a proper look at the man beside her. He was dressed in a black wool coat and a sharp-looking suit, with a bunch of folders stacked on the retractable table atop his legs.

“My meeting had just ended, and I came out to see you standing by the roadside. I hope Han Yaotian didn’t cause you any trouble.”

Yun Xi shook her head and chuckled softly. “He wouldn’t dare do that to me now.”

“Still, you can’t be too careful. Since the Han family has been kicked out of the big four wealthiest families after the election, they are bound to want to take their revenge sooner or later. Everyone knows the role you played in making all of this happen, so don’t let your guard down. You better be careful whenever you’re out these days. Try not to go to quiet places alone.”

Although he knew that the Young Commander would have sent a number of bodyguards to accompany her, while he himself had also dispatched a group of security personnel to watch over her discretely, it was still impossible to ensure that there would not be any mishaps.

Especially since the Han family had been so quiet lately. It felt a little disturbing: almost like the calm before the storm. He was worried that the Han family’s vengeance would soon be aimed at her. After all, compared to the iron-clad fortress of the Young Commander’s on Tianyu Mountain and his special forces, this girl would probably be the easiest to attack.

Before this all had happened, he’d never thought that this girl would be involved in the murky waters of Jingdu, and, least of all, to find out that the person who had overturned the balance of power in Jingdu had been her.

Among everyone who knew that it was her pulling the strings behind the scenes, no one had suspected that this young girl, who was not yet even an adult, would actually be able to take down one of the big four wealthiest families.

When the Han family and the Qiao family had been at each other’s throats, he’d known then that this girl was involved and that she was the evil mastermind behind the scenes, manipulating the Qiao family to subdue the Han family. Her methods were absolutely remarkable and even he was impressed.

It would have been fine if the Hans had been just another family, but, unfortunately, they were also involved with Crocodile, and her provoking the Han family was tantamount to her having a death wish.

“I know, I’ll be careful.”

When she’d had the audacity to execute this ploy, she had already been mentally prepared to face all kinds of dangers. If she could not even endure this little crisis, how would she ever be able to fight side by side with Mu Feichi, let alone stand alongside him? With that thought in mind, Yun Xi suddenly turned her head and looked at the man beside her with a hint of worry. “The virus has become uncontrollable lately, and the vaccine has not yet been developed. You should be extra careful, Eldest Heir.”

“I know what I’m getting myself into. I will do as you kindly reminded me in our phone call, so don’t you worry about me. On the contrary, you’re the one who’s always either in the laboratory or around the Jiang family and the old man. You should be the most careful since you’re dealing with an unknown virus after all.”

Listening to the words he’d just said, Yun Xi was taken aback. Then she looked at the man beside her who had always been a mystery to her.

“I’ve had so many people bury this information. How did you know about everything?”

“I tend to find out what I want to know. I’m just curious about matters involving you, but I won’t inquire about other things that I shouldn’t know about. I have no ulterior motives. I’m just glad to know that you’re safe and sound.”

“...” Yun Xi was not stupid. She understood clearly what he meant by those words.

However, when it came to feelings, Mu Feichi had occupied her whole world, and she had no space in her heart for anyone else.
