Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 296 - 291: Ji Ning Sent You Here?

Wan Xiangye’s words shocked You Le so much that she couldn’t recover for a long time.

Awakening superpower?

Wan Xiangye took a step forward and held You Le’s hand, speaking to her as if she were a junior, "You Le, your father’s talent is not bad. I found in the information that he awakened a Control Ability, and it’s very special, which is why it attracted the Sun Family’s covetousness..."

You Le wanted to pull her hand away, but Wan Xiangye’s words made her pause, "What kind of superpower does my dad have?"

"Controlling molecular structure."

You Le was so shocked that the reflection of Wan Xiangye’s sunglasses was imprinted in her pupils, feeling as if her body had fallen into an ice cave, with a coldness spreading through her blood.

Wan Xiangye smiled slightly, patting the back of her hand, "This superpower is too special. If your father were stronger, even the Sun Family wouldn’t dare to make a move. So, You Le, your current situation is very dangerous. The reason I came this time is to protect you. I can’t let my friend’s child meet with misfortune..."

Fu Yuanxuan’s voice rang in You Le’s ear again: "You Le, ask her if there’s any evidence proving it’s the Sun Family’s doing."

But You Le’s mind was in chaos, overwhelmed by Wan Xiangye’s words, and she couldn’t respond.

Close by, Wan Xiangye signaled to a nearby subordinate, who quickly slipped away.

After a while, You Le slowly came around, realizing with a shock how close she was to Wan Xiangye. She quickly pulled back her hand and retreated two or three steps, afraid she would notice she was wearing an earpiece.

Outside the courtyard, Uncle Chen, who was peeking, had a bad feeling, quickly hid his presence, and sent Bai Xiaotang a message to retreat.

Bai Xiaotang was very flustered when she saw the message, but fortunately, Uncle Chen had already told her where to retreat.

She hurriedly turned and left, but her overly panicked expression still drew attention.

She could sense someone approaching her, so she quickened her pace, suddenly—

A pair of large hands reached out from around the corner, covering her mouth and pulling her into a narrow alley.

"Mmm..."

"Don’t move, it’s me!" The low and familiar voice came from above her head, and Bai Xiaotang stopped struggling.

"Turn around, don’t look back."

Fu Yuanxuan’s open black coat enveloped Bai Xiaotang’s body, pressing her against the wall. He lowered his head to kiss her hair, like a couple in passionate love, kissing in the corner.

The person who lost track of them looked suspiciously at his back.

The height doesn’t match, nor do the clothes.

It shouldn’t be him...

But they still remained vigilant, watching them for a moment before seeing the pair becoming more inappropriate, with the man even asking the girl if she had brought her ID and which hotel to go to.

Today’s young people...

Really have such passion!

After they left, Fu Yuanxuan’s tightly wound body finally began to relax, "Why are you here?"

Fu Yuanxuan looked down, seeing that Bai Xiaotang had kept her head down without moving. He couldn’t help but turn his face to lift her chin, meeting a flushed face.

Her gaze at him was very shy, then turned into embarrassment, glaring at him fiercely.

Fu Yuanxuan then realized how close he had been to Bai Xiaotang, taking advantage of her for quite a while, and released his hand, coughing awkwardly, "I didn’t mean to..."

It would have been better if he hadn’t said anything. As soon as he spoke, she stomped on his foot so hard it seemed like she used all her strength.

Fu Yuanxuan didn’t really feel the pain in his foot, but he was rarely amused to see Bai Xiaotang’s ever-changing expressions.

Her courage has grown compared to before.

"Have you stomped enough?"

Hearing Fu Yuanxuan’s emotionless voice, Bai Xiaotang couldn’t help but shiver, suddenly feeling a sense of panic.

How dare she stomp on the young master of the Fu Family?

But Sister Ning said never to show mercy to men who take advantage.

Otherwise, other girls might encounter the same thing.

Thinking of this, she gained a bit of confidence, released her foot, and took two steps back with a "humph."

But her eyes still showed a trace of nervousness.

Seeing the micro-expressions on her face, Fu Yuanxuan couldn’t help but find it amusing, yet he knew his actions earlier were improper. He sensibly apologized: "The situation was urgent just now, and I had no choice but to hold you. I’m sorry..."

When Bai Xiaotang saw him actually apologizing, she couldn’t keep a grumpy face, lowered her head slightly, and awkwardly replied in a mosquito-sized voice: "Thank you, Brother Fu, for saving me."

"Why are you here? Where’s your family driver?" Fu Yuanxuan knew that Bai Xiaotang’s skilled driver was a trusted aide specifically assigned by Bai Yusen.

At this time, she should have been home after school, so why appear here?

It looked like she came from Back Alley Street.

What was she doing there?

Bai Xiaotang didn’t want to bring up You Le’s matter and was about to make up an excuse when Fu Yuanxuan saw through her.

"Did you follow You Le here?"

Bai Xiaotang froze, quickly raising her head to meet Fu Yuanxuan’s stern gaze, then nervously lowered her head without a word.

"Did Ji Ning send you here?"

"No... no..." Bai Xiaotang quickly denied.

She couldn’t get Sister Ning into trouble.

"Then what are you doing here? It’s very dangerous here. Quickly inform your family driver to pick you up."

Fu Yuanxuan suppressed a bit of anger inside, making his tone heavier.

He grabbed Bai Xiaotang’s arm and started to walk out, contacting Mantis as he did so.

"Come to the intersection of Third Street, Back Alley."

Bai Xiaotang looked at the man in front, confused as to why he suddenly got angry. She hadn’t done anything, had she?

Okay, the situation just now was indeed a bit dangerous. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

But why was he angry?

It’s not like he’s her brother...

Now Bai Xiaotang only dared to mutter a few criticisms in her heart, as her earlier courage to stomp Fu Yuanxuan had completely vanished.

Soon, they arrived at the intersection of Third Street, Back Alley.

The place was bustling with people coming and going.

Mantis was already waiting there.

Seeing the Captain’s fiancée was also there, he couldn’t help but show a hint of gossiping curiosity.

"Send her home."

"Yes."

"No way, I can’t leave. My classmate is still inside!" It seemed that with someone else present, Bai Xiaotang’s courage returned, and she hurriedly refused.

Mantis clearly saw the Captain’s face darken again, so he couldn’t help but take a step to the side.

"Your classmate, I will bring her out. You go home now."

"But..."

"No buts, go home with him now!"

"I..."

"Go home!"

Fu Yuanxuan was about to reach the point of losing his temper, so Mantis quickly spoke up: "Miss, let’s quickly go! We’re not allowed to park here, and soon my car might get a ticket."

Bai Xiaotang: ...

***

"Ji Ning, Bai Xiaotang is just a high school student, you shouldn’t have let her do something so dangerous!"

When Ji Ning received Fu Yuanxuan’s call, she frowned slightly and replied, "What did she do now?"

"You didn’t know?"

Ji Ning raised an eyebrow, "Should I know?"

"Didn’t you have her tailing You Le?"

Xiao Shun clearly saw their team leader glance at the ceiling.

The leader’s rolling their eyes, right?

Xiao Shun thought with a chuckle.

Ji Ning didn’t look too happy, walking out of the cabin to stare at the dark sea outside, she said faintly, "Don’t let her get hurt."
