?Chapter 95: Chapter 95: It’s Rare to Have This Kind of Heart (Third update) Chapter 95: Chapter 95: It’s Rare to Have This Kind of Heart (Third update) For Zhu Qianying, the news of her sister becoming romantically involved with Ji Huan was a pleasant surprise.
Originally, she had been considering how to arrange for her sister’s living situation after her own marriage. Should she rent an apartment for her in R City and let her live alone? Or should she arrange for her sister to live with their mother in another province after her sister graduates?
Now, she doesn’t need to worry about any of this anymore.
From what she could tell, Ji Huan was a responsible and good man. She assumed that even if she as the older sister wanted to take on this worry, Ji Huan wouldn’t give up this duty.
The next evening, Zhu Qianying unexpectedly received a call from Ji Huan.
“Hello, Ji Huan?”
“Yes, it’s me. Qianying, there’s something I need to discuss with you first. You should be aware of your brother’s situation. My mother fears that Xiao Yu might be threatened, so she wants Xiao Yu to stay at our house for a while. I hope you don’t mind?”
Zhu Qianying was silent for a moment. Recently, her father and Zhu Junzhao were being backed into a corner, it seemed like they were forcing their stepmother, Fang Caiping, to transfer the training center. As the saying goes, ‘a cornered dog jumps over the wall,’ presumably, the Ji Family also feared that her father and Zhu Junzhao might target her sister.
“Mm, Ji Huan, thank my mom for me, I will visit her to express my gratitude when I have time.”
It had to be said that the old are wise. No matter how much she cared about Xiao Yu’s safety, she herself could not think as far ahead, or be as thorough as Ji Huan’s mother.
“Qianying, there’s no need to be polite, she’s my girlfriend, it’s my responsibility to protect her personal safety.”
Ji Huan’s words reassured Zhu Qianying.
“Ji Huan, it’s a blessing for Xiao Yu to have met you. She’s not stupid, but she’s still young and her experience is limited. Please guide her more when you have the time. Thank you.”
Zhu Qianying knew her sister very well. After all, she was the precious child who had been nurtured and cared for from a young age. How could she not understand her?
“Mm, I will. Qianying, do you need any help? I will be returning to L City tomorrow, and after that, I should be working there for quite some time. Feel free to reach out to me at any time if you need anything.”
Ji Huan was the person in charge of a hugely invested production base in L City that belonged to the Ji Family.
Zhu Qianying was grateful for Ji Huan’s consideration.
But under normal circumstances, she would never ask the Ji family for help. After all, to the Ji Family, she was just a stranger.
She was already immensely grateful that they could guarantee her sister’s safety.
But obviously, she couldn’t directly express these feelings to Ji Huan. “Alright, I understand. If anything happens, I will get in touch with you right away.”
After chatting with Ji Huan, Zhu Qianying still felt worried and dialed Xing Bailun’s number.
Although Xing Bailun had been resting at home recently due to an injury, he still needed to take care of his official business. So at this time, he was likely still awake.
The call was answered after two rings. “Qianying, you’re still awake?”
Xing Bailun’s voice was clear and cheerful, he was indeed still working.
“Are you still working?” Zhu Qianying was worried about interfering with his work.
She would not have called Xing Bailun at this time if it were not for her concerns about her sister’s safety.
Qi Xiao had asked her to treat Xing Bailun as she did in the past, but to be honest, after Xing Bailun’s confession, it was hard for her to casually chat and play with him as she used to.
Of course, they were good friends for many years and it would be heartbreaking to become distant. But she was afraid that her unintentional actions would give him false hopes about a possible change in their relationship. So, for the time being, she was unwilling to have too much solo contact with Xing Bailun.
“No, I’m in a group chat with Qi Xiao and others. Want to join us?”
Zhu Qianying could vaguely hear the voices of Qi Xiao and the others, which slightly eased her mind.
“No thanks, I have something to ask you. Are my dad and the others up to something lately?”
She had heard that her father and the others were trying to sell the training center when she visited Xing Bailun a few days ago. But it seemed like they hadn’t found a buyer yet, and she wasn’t too clear about the rest.
“Oh, that. I just heard about it today too. Fang Caiping has found a buyer for the training center. They’re currently haggling over the price, but I’m pretty sure it will be sold. Of course, the price won’t be high because almost all of the loan with the Zhu Family as a guarantee has been used up.”
The credibility of the information Xing Bailun provided to Zhu Qianying has always been one hundred percent.
Since he said it so confidently, it must be true.
“I see, thank you.”
Zhu Qianying was pondering what to say next when she heard Xing Bailun say, “Qianying, you need to remind Xiao Yu to be careful about her safety, even in R City.”
Zhu Qianying was startled. Could it be that something had actually happened, prompting Ji Huan’s mother to make that decision?
“Aaron, can you explain further? I’m a bit confused.”
“Didn’t your father go around asking everyone to be his guarantor? Yesterday, he mentioned to my Dad that Xiao Yu is already eighteen and can start considering marrying into a good and well-matched family.”
Xing Bailun was the oldest in his family and had a twenty-four-year-old younger brother.
It seemed that Zhu Zhizhou was trying to leak this information, judging the reaction from Xing’s family.
Zhu Qianying, although worried about Xiao Yu’s future, always thought that Xiao Yu was just eighteen and that her father, even if he behaved scummy, wouldn’t “sell” his just-turned-eighteen daughter.
What’s more, if he could be patient for another month, he would receive two hundred million in betrothal gifts from the Yan family. Even though half of it belonged to Zhu Qianying, he still had one hundred million left.
This amount, for the current Zhu family, was already a large sum.
However, to her surprise, her father was not satisfied with just one hundred million, he also wanted to “sell” Xiao Yu at a good price.
Luckily, now Xiao Yu had the Ji family looking after her, Zhu Qianying guessed that her father’s plan would fail this time.
“Did he also mention this to Qi Xiao’s family besides yours?” Zhu Qianying asked, but in reality, she had already guessed the answer.
“Well, just be careful. If you need any help, just let us know. We always treat Xiao Yu as our own little sister,” Xing Bailun added.
Since Xing Bailun’s injury, it seemed like he had erased the memory of him confessing his feelings to Zhu Qianying. His interactions with Zhu Qianying these days were as natural as nothing happened.
But Zhu Qianying knew he was just trying to hide and pretend to forget.
Because throughout their conversation, he never mentioned Yan Shao. And Qi Xiao, as well as a few others, knew better than to bring up Yan Shao in front of he and Zhu Qianying.
Now, everyone in the country knew that Zhu Qianying was Yan Shao’s fiancée, therefore, Xiao Yu was Yan Shao’s little aunt. It was a given for the brother-in-law to help the little aunt-in-law when she was in trouble.
And the power of Yan Shao alone was far greater than all of them combined.
Why would they need to use their own power?
“Alright, I will. Thank you, Aaron!” Even if she wouldn’t ask for help, Zhu Qianying still expressed her sincere gratitude.
After all, it was rare for him to show that considerate side!
