Xi Shulei's expression was no longer as dishonest as before, instead, she had a serious look on her face as she looked at Yao Yuan and said: "What I said was true, I'm not joking with you."

Yao Yuan was in a state of disbelief, his mouth gaping wide open, unable to close it for a long time.

"No, no, no. Say it again."

Xi Shulei pursed her lips and said with a smile: "I just want you to be my bodyguard."

"Can you tell me how you came to this decision?"

Yao Yuan still found it hard to believe.

Xi Shulei thought for a moment, then said: "Let me put it this way, when I first saw you, I did not have a good impression of you, but that incident last time still allowed me to witness your skills, it was rather reassuring."

It was obvious that Yao Yuan was not joking with this reason. Just as he was about to say something, a voice came over.

"What are you doing?"

In order to properly speak of the matter, Yao Yuan had specially brought Xi Shulei to a corner of the courtyard. However, no one could have imagined that it was precisely because of this that Liu Xinyue saw such a scene when she came over.

A few faint lights shone onto Liu Xinyue's face from the darkness. Her expression was very solemn and solemn, and she felt a little afraid.

Yao Yuan reached out his hand, trying to explain.

No matter if it was the relationship between Yao Yuan and his wife, or the awkward situation Xi Shulei had when she was an outsider to this place, they needed a reasonable explanation.

"Can you listen to me?"

It was unknown what Liu Xinyue was currently thinking in her mind, so she didn't say anything further and directly ran off.

"What does that mean?"

Yao Yuan had never interacted with many girls before, so he did not really understand what kind of thoughts girls had. He could only look at Xi Shulei with a puzzled expression.

How would Xi Shulei know about the relationship between the two of them?

The girl who had suddenly appeared was really good-looking. Compared to him, she wasn't much worse off.

If a group of men were to vote who was the better girl, most people would probably vote for her.

Xi Shulei suddenly felt a little awkward in her heart.

She looked at Yao Yuan and asked, "What is the relationship between you and that woman just now?"

Yao Yuan thought for a while, then said: "It can be said to be a relationship of husband and wife, but saying this is not appropriate."

Xi Shulei was confused, she did not understand what Yao Yuan meant, and continued to ask: "Tell me the specifics."

Yao Yuan laughed bitterly and told them his story from before: "You have been guarding this beautiful wife of yours all day and in the end, you can't do anything.

Hearing Yao Yuan's complaints, the expression on Xi Shulei's face suddenly changed. He asked: "You've never done that before?"

Yao Yuan shook his head.

"Alright, it's fine. I'll explain it to you later."

The two of them returned home.

This time, when Xi Shulei came over, she talked to his father-in-law, Liu Neng, about investing in some businesses in the village and came over to discuss it with the Village Chief.

As long as it was something related to money, Liu Neng would naturally not reject them. Looking at the Porsche Carnival that was stopped at the door, he knew that the girl who appeared in front of him was not empty words, and was naturally a good host.

Yao Yuan knew that the investment that Xi Shulei said was all bullshit, it was all for the sake of finding him. He just did not know how Xi Shulei knew about her location.

Xi Shulei looked at Yao Yuan with a smile and said, "You said that you would go to the Qing River every other day to do business, even if I didn't want to see you, it would have been difficult. Just two days ago, when you went back home, I followed you, so naturally I found you."

Yao Yuan looked at her fiercely: "You actually followed me?"

Xi Shulei said with an innocent face, "Didn't I not do anything that would harm you?"

Just as Yao Yuan wanted to say something, he heard voices coming from inside.

"It's time to eat, hurry up and come eat."

Before Yao Yuan came back, he had already spent more than an hour discussing the fictitious farm music industry.

Xi Shulei even boasted shamelessly that she planned to invest 50 million into the village.

Fifty million! Although the final project would have to be effective, since it had landed in Liu Neng's hands, he would at least get some of it. If not, his nickname would not be for nothing.

Looking at the little girl who gave him the money, Liu Neng felt very satisfied. At night, he even got his mother-in-law to kill a chicken and entertain him well.

Xi Shulei was arranged to be by Liu Neng's side. Knowing that she did not have enough alcohol, Liu Neng even specially prepared a lot of different types of drinks and placed them at the side.

As for Yao Yuan and Liu Xinyue, who were still at the same seats as before, they had been sitting by his side the entire time.

Yao Yuan could clearly feel Liu Xinyue's resistance towards him. Although it had appeared a few times previously, the feelings these few times were completely different from now, as if it was a kind of …

Yao Yuan didn't know what to feel.

But at this time, Xi Shulei suddenly stood up, scooped up half a spoonful of vinegar and placed it on the seasoning dish in front of Yao Yuan, and said: "Here, I'll give you some vinegar."

Just as he was worrying that he could not find any good words to describe it, Yao Yuan finally understood.

Liu Xinyue, who was at the side, naturally knew what Xi Shulei was doing at this moment, and her face instantly flushed red.

Yao Yuan did not say anything. He just silently ate and waited for the meal to end.

In his heart, he knew that since Xi Shulei had explained it to him, he would definitely find a chance to explain it to her.

After eating his fill, just as Yao Yuan was about to clean up the table, he was dragged to the side by his mother-in-law.

Yao Yuan looked at his mother-in-law in shock, then turned around to look at Xi Shulei. The latter winked at him craftily, only then did he understand what was going on.

After Xi Shulei dealt with him, Xi Shulei hurriedly went to find Liu Xinyue. She called him out and prepared to explain everything to him, if not Xi Shulei would really worry so much that she would follow him.

"Xin Yue, I want to talk to you about something."

At the dining table, Xi Shulei had already recognised the entire family once, so she naturally knew Liu Xinyue's name.

Liu Xinyue turned her head, unwilling to pay any more attention to the two of them.

"It's so easy to be jealous. Didn't I hear that you two don't have any feelings for each other? It's possessiveness that makes you jealous, right?"

Xi Shulei said with a smile.
