However, just as she had walked less than five hundred ters, a strong light suddenly shone from behind, followed by a series of "beep beep" horn sounds.
Su Jiuyi turned her head in confusion and saw a familiar car; she couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.
Why is he back again?
Shi Aoju once again stopped the car in front of her, blocking her way.
"Get in." The car window rolled down, and he spoke faintly, his voice commanding and not allowing any refusal.
"I..." Su Jiuyi was initially planning to refuse, but Shi Aoju didn’t give her the chance.
"Listen." He glanced at her coldly, "Until we get to the bottom of that matter, your situation is extrely dangerous."
His words startled her like a wake-up call.
Su Jiuyi recalled today’s various events; she indeed forgot that so many mysteries remained unsolved. Since soone wanted to kill her, there would be a second ti.
Having no other choice, she reopened the car door and sat back in the car.
"Regarding this matter, you have a way, right?" The car drove forward at a steady pace, and Su Jiuyi cald her breath, making her voice sound as composed as possible.
"Probably." Shi Aoju said.
Su Jiuyi was left speechless by his three words.
What does "probably" an? Isn’t it said that Ciaos is a den of thieves where many illegal trades occur? Even though she’s unwilling to be entangled with these matters, as an employee, on the first day of work, the manager gave them a crisis awareness class on this subject. He’s the boss, so the power behind him must be formidable.
"I will assign soone to protect your safety." Shi Aoju’s tone, although still indifferent, brought a hint of warmth to Su Jiuyi.
Thinking of how he "stepped in" to save her in the alley today, and the warm noodles that night, made her feel that he might not be as unapproachable as he seed.
Perhaps everyone has a soft side in their heart.
Perhaps this man in front of her was like that, with indifference and aloofness rely a facade, a weapon to protect himself.
The car was getting closer to the Su family’s gate.
She rembered that last ti Qi Jingren sent her back, she only asked the taxi to stop at the garden a hundred ters outside the Su family’s house because many residential houses around here wouldn’t expose her true identity.
"Um... My house is just ahead."
The Su family is a grand villa, sothing Su Zhenxiong had invested heavily to build in recent years.
Shi Aoju said nothing, elegantly turned the wheel, and gradually slowed down the car.

anwhile, after having dinner at the Su family, Song Zhike discussed recent stock market returns and the Song family’s investnt business with Su Zhenxiong. He subtly tried to gather information from him, and although he managed to please him, he also realized that Su Zhenxiong was indeed ambitious and cunning.
Having accumulated much experience in the business world, Su Zhenxiong truly had a thod; otherwise, Mr. Song wouldn’t have signed that multi-billion investnt deal with him.
In hindsight, if it weren’t for Shi Aoju and Qin Shaobai showing disinterest in that project, it wouldn’t have fallen to just the two of them.
Song Zhike, however, appeared indifferent. He preferred entrepreneurial ventures over inheriting his family’s business.
Noticing it was getting late, he exchanged a few cordial words and prepared to leave, using the excuse of "not wanting to disturb them." Zhao Shuya subtly hinted to Su Manning, who hadn’t spoken much that evening, to see Song Zhike out.
