Jiang Yao stabilized her mind, tapped the answer with trembling fingertips.
Almost immediately connected.
Cheng Yi's voice came from the other end of the phone immediately, full of guilt.
"Miss, I'm sorry."
Jiang Yao was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at the boy.
The voice on the other end of the phone continued.
"A few bums broke into the house through the back window today. We only guarded the front door and didn't notice."
After a pause, Cheng Yi seemed to feel even more guilty: "We didn't know that someone had entered until we heard the cry for help inside."
Jiang Yao's throat suddenly became a little dry, and his eyes were still fixed on the boy: "How is he?"
There was too much in the little girl's eyes.
Yan Zhi's heart sank inexplicably.
Cheng Yi on the other end of the phone seemed to be relieved, and said, "Fortunately, the protected object was not harmed, but she seemed to be a little frightened."
heard the words.
Jiang Yao also heaved a sigh of relief.
With Zhou Hui's temperament, it is inevitable to be scared, as long as she is not injured.
So, Jiang Yao said "I see" to the other side, and hung up the phone.
She subconsciously called out: "Yan Zhi."
"What's wrong."
It was almost her voice that fell, followed by the boy's cold voice.
He had a hunch that this call was related to him.
The little girl frowned slightly, took two steps forward and took his hand, raised her eyes and asked.
"It's no big problem, you get in the car first, and I'll talk to you slowly, okay?"
Yan Zhi didn't speak, just took the little girl's hand and walked to the car.
to the car.
Jiang Yao first said to Uncle Lin: "Uncle Lin, go to the village in the city where you often pick me up."
Uncle Lin: "Okay."
Then start the engine and the car moves forward slowly.
The roadside scenery is constantly regressing.
Jiang Yao's expression was a little tangled, she was thinking, what should I say, the matter of arranging bodyguards around his house.
Would Yan Zhi feel disrespected
"that."
The little girl hesitated to speak.
Yan Zhi inexplicably calmed down now, and didn't rush, just quietly waiting for the little girl to think of words.
Jiang Yao's little hand holding the clothes loosened and tightened, but finally decided to confess directly.
"I arranged bodyguards near your house before, but I didn't intend to monitor you, and I didn't mean to pry into your privacy. I just... just wanted to protect you."
paused.
Take a sneak peek.
Seeing that Yan Zhi's expression remained unchanged, she continued: "It was the uncle bodyguard who called just now, and a thief broke into the house. Because it came in through the back window, uncle didn't find out immediately, which shocked Aunt Zhou a little. "
finished listening.
Yan Zhi pursed his lips and said nothing.
The eyelids drooped, and the cicada-winged eyelashes cast a shadow.
Jiang Yao has been secretly looking at the boy's expression, but unfortunately, he didn't see anything.
After a while.
The young man moved, he raised his eyelids, his eyes fixed on Jiang Yao's delicate face.
"Thanks."
Cold and serious.
Jiang Yao was startled: "Aren't you angry with me?"
Yan Zhi: "Why are you angry with you?"
The little girl's delicate eyebrows and eyes were tangled, and she twisted her clothes with her hands.
"I'm the only one who will put bodyguards on your house."
"Won't."
Yan Zhi shook his head lightly. If Jiang Yao hadn't let the bodyguards go, Zhou Hui might not just be frightened now.
Fortunately, he can still tell the difference.
For such a long time, Jiang Yao treated him better than he treated himself.
So good that he felt unreal.
Like a dream, I am afraid that one day I will suddenly wake up.
Thinking of this, the boy's eyes darkened, and his slender fingers curled up subconsciously.
Jiang Yao didn't notice his abnormality, so she breathed a sigh of relief, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes curved accordingly.
"It's good that you're not angry. I'm so afraid of you being angry."
The tone is soft.
Yan Zhi subconsciously said, "No."
He thought he would never be angry with the little girl.
Uncle Lin looked at the two of them through the rearview mirror, and somehow felt a bit overwhelmed.
The young man, who was a little uncomfortable at first, actually found it more and more pleasing to the eye.
The car drove fast and steadily.
Soon to the village in the city.
I got off the car not far from Yan Zhi's house.
Jiang Yao asked Uncle Lin to wait for her here, and followed Yan Zhi to the house.
They were still a little worried about Zhou Hui.
At that time, Zhou Hui sat in the corner with some fear, looking at the man in her yard from time to time.
Look at it.
He looked back in fear.
The people in the courtyard were Cheng Yi and Cheng Si.
The bum who broke in had already been sent to the police station, and the two of them stayed behind to wait for Jiang Yao.
After Cheng Yi looked at Zhou Hui again, the latter looked away in a panic.
He couldn't help but said: "No, we saved her, what is she afraid of?"
Cheng Si glanced at him, expressionless: "Maybe you are too ugly."
Cheng Yi:? ?
Cheng Yi: What did this kid say?
He immediately took out his phone and looked at the screen.
The reflected man's facial features are resolute, his eyes are sharp, his brows are upside down, and his expressionless face is somewhat fierce.
Laughed.
With eight teeth exposed, he looked a bit naive.
Cheng Yi stroked his short beard, and hummed confidently: "It's ugly, it's obviously full of masculinity."
This time around, he didn't even look around, his eyes were only on the gate.
Spit out: "Ugly."
Cheng Yi: I tm#￥%*
Satisfied, he glared at Cheng Si: "I don't care about brats!"
Cheng Si: "I don't care about old men either."
Cheng Si is in his mid-twenties, while Cheng Yi is in his thirties.
The small ones are not small, and the old ones are not old.
Cheng Yi was at a loss for words for a while, and didn't know how to refute.
I glanced out of the corner of my eye.
Two figures just stepped through the gate and slowly came in.
Cheng Yi immediately recovered his serious face.
Cheng Si: "..."
It's fast enough.
Seeing a familiar figure, Zhou Hui was pleasantly surprised on her beautiful face, as if she had found her backbone.
He quickly stood up and went to meet him.
"Little Zhi!"
Hearing the sound, the boy paused for a moment.
Zhou Hui had already walked up to her, recalling the thrilling adventure just now, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red again.
Seeing this, Yan Zhi pursed his lips.
On the contrary, Jiang Yao hurried forward, put her arms around the woman's shoulders, and comforted her softly.
"It's okay, Aunt Zhou, all the bad guys have been arrested."
She patted the woman on the back lightly.
Zhou Hui couldn't help but shake the little girl's hand back, thinking that she couldn't lose face in front of the children, and then raised her hand to wipe away the overflowing tears.
"Yaoyao is right, it's okay, it's okay, Aunt Zhou is not afraid."
"Yes, it's all right."
Jiang Yao frowned, and said a few words of comfort in a low voice.
Zhou Hui gradually recovered.
Looking at the little girl's exquisite eyebrows, he couldn't help asking: "Why is Yaoyao here?"
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yao subconsciously looked at Yan Zhi.
The young man nodded imperceptibly.
Jiang Yao felt relieved and said, "It's like this Aunt Zhou."
She explained the matter of the bodyguard.
At the end, I seriously emphasized: "Aunt Zhou, I really just want to protect you, there is no other meaning."
Zhou Hui smiled softly and nodded in understanding.
Glancing at the boy next to him, he pulled the little girl over and whispered in her ear, "Is it because of Xiao Zhi?"
