Qin Youxuan maintained her calm, exchanging gaze with the butler with an air of casual conversation.
âThereâs no pharmacy, but thereâs a hospital on the island, near the airport. Thereâs someone on duty there every day to handle emergency situations on the island.â
The housekeeper, without any guard, clarified in detail what Youxuan wanted to know.
âI see, thank you.â
Youxuanâs palm was slick with nervous sweat as she gave a small smile and turned to leave.
As she stepped into the yard, she realized that all the villas here had sea views.
In front of the house, the boundless sea stretched outâ¦
âWhoooshâ¦â
A wave rushed in, stirring up sprays of water into the air that bloomed like silver flowersâ¦
The sight was breathtakingly beautiful.
On the golden sandy beach near the sea, footprints of birds on the beach were washed away as the waves continually lapped and receded.
âWant to get out of here? Why not have some company? Iâm bored at the villa too. Letâs go together?â Jiang Jinchen had somehow crept up beside her without her noticing, and slapped her on the shoulder, startling her.
âWith such a small heart, how can you handle Jie?â
âI remember you were ordered to leave here today. Why havenât you gone?â
At these words, Qin Youxuanâs eyes dimmed slightly, evading his topic of conversation.
âOld man is probably searching for me everywhere at the moment. I donât want to die, so Iâll just hide here. This is Dan Familyâs territory, the old man wouldnât dare to random move. Iâm very safe.â
Jiang Jinchen expressed his satisfaction. Trying to genuinely incarcerate him for a month is worse than asking for his life.
The old man is too cruel.
âSo, you want to go out? Letâs go, letâs go together!â Jiang Jinchen put an arm around her shoulder and started walking her out.
âLet go!â
Qin Youxuan was shocked and knocked off his arm and gave him a stare.
Jiang Jinchen gave her an innocent look and said, âMiss Qin, you and I are not just in name but also in kinship. Are you being too cautious of me?â
âI wonât consider a peacock that gets excited at the sight of any woman as my brother.â
Thanks to Yanan, Qinâs impression about Jiang had crashed.
She dropped the disdainful remark and left.
As soon as she left the gate, bodyguards immediately began to tail her.
She needed to figure out a way to ditch these bodyguards.
Noticing a shadow out of the corner of her eye, she paused and turned around.
âWhy are you still following me?â
Behind her, Jiang Jinchen sauntered with his hands in his pockets.
He didnât rush to catch up. He just trailed her leisurely.
âYo, am I not allowed to walk on this road?â brushing off her concern, he caught up to her and began walking beside her.
ââ¦â
What a pest.
Qin Youxuan gave him a glare and turned, intending to go in a different direction, only to find out that there was only one road leading out of the villa area.
Was Jiang Jinchen purposefully following her?
âTsk, tsk, you are too suspicious. Would I, Jiang Jinchen, tail someone who canât stand me?â The words had barely left his mouth when he made a move to put his arm around Qin Youxuan again, but stopped under her glare.
He stopped quite embarrassed, âFine, fine, I wonât touch you! Such a grouch!â
ââ¦â
âItâs your first time here, right? I also heard you asking the butler about the hospital, etc. Youâre so afraid of death you might as well follow me. I know the way.â
âYouâve been here before?â
Qin Youxuan glanced at him curiously.
