Chapter 725: Saving Lives

“I was far less interested in n than I was in money.” Ye Qian chuckled.

“I even thought that I didn’t like n and liked won because I liked you more.” She looked at teasingly.

I raised my hands in surrender and smiled without saying a word. I knew that she was just joking.

“Until one day, I was attacked in the square.” Ye Qian’s voice was very calm, but her expression was a little agitated.

I was shocked. “Attacked? Who attacked you?”

Ye Qian smiled wryly. “I managed to escape unscathed from both the Gu and Jing families. Think about it, how many people wanted to die? First, there’d be Jing Ning’s mother and sister. You know how Jing Yan is like.”

“So was it Jing Yan?” I really didn’t expect it, but I wasn’t surprised.

Ye Qian nodded slightly. “The Gu family wouldn’t go so far as to kill . After all, I’ve always protected their interests, but the Jing family is different. Jing Ning was sent to prison, so the hope on him as the heir was lost. All the previous preparations they made were in vain. They needed to find soone to vent their anger on.”

I suddenly understood. “So, if I hadn’t gone missing, they would have co to vent their anger on ?”

Ye Qian shook her head slightly. “That’s impossible. Jing Tian wouldn’t allow them to harm you. Even if Jing Tian had lost his mory, they wouldn’t dare to offend the Ardent Fla Alliance. Besides, Master Si and Master Liu would protect you. So, it’s much harder to target you than . I concealed my identity and kept a low profile, but they still found .”

“Then, what does that have to do with cousin Mo? Oh! A hero saving a damsel in distress, isn’t it? Such an old plot!” I teased her with a smile.

Ye Qian did not laugh. “Those heartless people executed indiscriminately on the square that day.”

I was shocked. “Indiscriminately?”

Ye Qian nodded. “Many innocent people lost their lives without even knowing why. When Master San reacted, he imdiately shielded in his arms and hid behind the bench. Master San wouldn’t be walking around without protection, so those assassins were unlucky. They t soone more professional than them and suffered a backlash. Master San’s arm was slightly injured, but I was completely unhard.”

Ye Qian paused for a mont. “Nanxing, can you understand my shock from being saved by a complete strange? At the ti, we didn’t even know each other’s nas, but he risked his life to save . No one has ever treated like this before.”

I was speechless.

“When a person who was walking in the desert and was about to die of thirst encountered a cup of liquid, be it water or poison, he would pick it up and drink it in one gulp. I was the one who was thirsty, and Master San was that cup of liquid.”

“Then, was my cousin water or poison?” I couldn’t help but ask.

Ye Qian smiled faintly. “Of course he was water. I was moved by his action. I was willing to use my life to repay him. I had never owed anyone a favor, not even Jing Ning. I didn’t lead him to his ending. That was his own doing. Nanxing, do you understand?”

I nodded. This was the truth. Even though I had a different stance from Ye Qian back then, I had never thought that Jing Ning’s cri was instigated by Ye Qian.

Ye Qian continued, “I wanted to stay and take care of Master San, but he refused. So I waited at the entrance of his residence. Even when it rained, I didn’t leave. He was a soft-hearted person, so he let in. From then on, I stayed by his side.”

Ye Qian’s smile was shy and sweet.
