Ye Yanxi closed the car door and looked at the menacing crowd. She took a deep breath and prepared to make a move. At this time, Xiao Yu also got out of the car.

"CEO, this place is dangerous. You should go back to the car." Ye Yan Xi's expression was anxious as she wanted to pull him back.

"Ye Yanxi!" Xiao Yu ignored the dozens of glaring eyes around him. He didn't care about the anxious expression on Ye Yan Xi's face as he looked around with a dark expression, "What's going on here?"

"This... It's a long story, you should go back first, don't get hurt. " Ye Yan Xi was so anxious that she was sweating.

Before the two of them could say anything, a leader already walked over. He lecherously scratched Ye Yanxi's body a few times, "You even brought helpers? Ye Yanxi, you won't be able to run away today. Treat my dozens of brothers well, hahaha! "

"Wait a minute!" As she heard that person finish speaking, Ye Yanxi immediately stood in front of Xiao Yu and loudly shouted, "He's not my helper, he's the hitchhiker. Don't hurt innocent people, come at me if you need anything."

After which, he spread out his arms and protected the person behind him.

Ye Yanxin had a petite body, and Xiao Yu was taller than her by more than a head. Seeing her standing in front of him, no matter how one looked at it, it was very awkward.

The person leading the group had a smile on his face as he stared vulgarly at Ye Yan Xi. He was a complete hooligan.

"Chu Beize's woman is indeed pretty, I wonder how he tastes like." That person sized up Ye Yanxue as he continued to walk closer, "If you don't want your little brother to lose an arm or a leg, then come over yourself!"

Ye Yanxi's gaze fell onto the delicate black bracelet that Ye Minghao had given to her on her birthday. Now, it had actually appeared in the hands of this hoodlum.

She had already broken up with Chu Beize, so why was she still implicated? Even her little brother was not spared.

Ye Yanxi looked at him coldly, "Where is Ye Minghao?"

"If you follow us honestly, we'll naturally meet your little brother."

"CEO, thank you for sending me here today." Ye Yanxi had already made her preparations to move out. She thanked Xiao Yu and then walked over to the group of people. "Let Ye Minghao go, I'll go with you."

"Halt." That person was somewhat wary and threw over a towel. "I heard that you're very good at fighting. First, tie up your hands!"

Ye Yan Xi took the towel and chuckled, "Have you ever seen anyone who can tie their hands together? "Or …"

He suddenly stopped mid-sentence. There seemed to be a smell coming out from the towel, which flowed into his nostrils.

"You found it?" Seeing that she had fallen into his trap, the leading hoodlum laughed sinisterly, "So what if you know kung fu, didn't you still fall into my hands?"

Ye Yan Xi felt her head grow dizzy and her body couldn't control herself as it went limp. Her consciousness slowly left her body and she finally fell into a coma.

That person waved his hand and two of the hooligans immediately rushed forward. In front of Xiao Yu, they pulled Ye Yanxi up, completely disregarding him.

Just as the group was about to leave, Xiao Yu suddenly stopped them. His voice was cold and their emotions could not be heard. "Let her go."

"Yo, you want to be a hero and save the beauty?" The little bully walked up to Xiao Yu with a stick in his hand.

Xiao Yu's expression didn't change, but he continued to speak in a cold and calm voice, "The people I brought with me naturally want to take her away as well."

When the leader heard this, he laughed out loud, "You guys overestimate yourselves. Let's cripple him." A group of people rushed forward.

Ten minutes later, under the dim light from the warehouse's lamps, the floor was littered with people, moaning in pain.

Xiao Yu stood there without moving an inch, his entire body emitting a sharp aura, causing the leading hoodlum to be frightened to the point of continuously retreating, "You …" "Who are you?"

Xiao Yu kicked out with his foot. That person flew out like a sack, arcing through the air and landing on a pile of garbage not too far away.

After that, Xiao Yu casually patted off the dust on his pants. He elegantly walked over to Ye Yanxi, bent over, and picked her up in his arms.

When Ye Yan Xi woke up, a pungent smell of disinfectant entered her nose. She frowned, lifted her eyelids, and looked around her. The white bedsheets had been covered. She was at the hospital.

But, how could it be in the hospital?

Just as he slightly moved his head, he felt a heart-wrenching pain. He stretched out his hand to touch the back of his head, which was wrapped in thick gauze.

Who could tell her what was going on?

Before she could figure it out, she heard a high-pitched voice.

"Xiao Xi, you're finally awake! Mom's going to die from worry!" When he finished, he hugged her tightly, his chest pressing so hard against her face that he almost suffocated.

Ye Yanxi struggled with some discomfort for a moment. Her head was in pain again, and she couldn't help but gasp.

Lu Manwen quickly let go of her and reached out to touch her face, "Xiao Xi, you just woke up. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Mom will call the doctor right now."

"…" Ye Yan Xi was a bit stunned.

In the past, when she broke a plate at home, Lu Manwen would greet her with a broom, and every time she slapped it, it would leave a red, swollen mark.

Just a few days ago, Lu Manwen mercilessly cut off her tuition fees, leaving her to fend for herself.

Ye Yan Xi was unable to adapt to the sudden 180 degree reversal of attitude. She was wondering if Lu Manwen was under some kind of spell.

When she saw Lu Manwen's hand, she subconsciously retreated backwards. At the same time, she stared at Lu Manwen warily, like a frightened rabbit. "Mom, I'm fine."

Ye Yan Xi's actions made Lu Manwen look a bit embarrassed. She awkwardly smiled and took back her hand, "Xiaoxi, you must be scared. Mom is so worried about you."

As she spoke, she turned around to thank Xiao Yu, "It's all thanks to Director Xiao. Otherwise, who knows what might have happened to Xiao Xi."

Director Xiao?

Ye Yan Xi tried her best to turn her gaze to the other side. Sure enough, she saw the tall and slender figure of Xiao Yu standing beside the bed.

In other words, Xiao Yu was the one who sent her to the hospital? At that time, the situation was extremely urgent. She remembered that someone had schemed against her … Could it be that Xiao Yu still hadn't left?

She didn't know how she had gotten her hands on it. She had completely lost track of what happened after she fainted.

"This little injury is nothing," Lu Manwen immediately replied, "It's not good to delay her work. Don't worry Director Xiao, she will be working on time tomorrow."

Xiao Yu declined to comment and indifferently left the room.

There were only two people left. Lu Manwen's face was still smiling. She reached out her hand to touch Ye Yan Xi's forehead, "Xi, is it still painful?"

Ye Yan Xi did not know what her goal was, so she did not say anything and maintained her vigilant distance.

Seeing her like this, Lu Manwen no longer tried to pretend. Instead, she sat down, and her expression returned to indifference and harshness.

"I'll tell you directly. Your dad wants to bid for a project with the Xiao Family. If you fail, your dad will go bankrupt. I don't care what method you use, but you must get Xiao Yu to help us get this project!"

At this moment, Ye Yanxi understood that there was indeed a reason for why she was here.

"What can I do about such a big matter?" She was just a new employee, it was impossible to change the president's mind.

"Aren't you very capable? First, it was to lure the Chu Family's young master, and then it was to hook up to the Xiao Family's CEO. Wouldn't it be fine if you climbed onto his bed and blew on his pillow? "
