Ye Xian readily agreed, to Ye Shaowen's surprise. In the past, getting her to come home was as hard as asking for the moon, as difficult as requesting the Old Buddha to return to the palace—why was she so eager to agree today? And judging by that expression, somewhat impatient, too? "Xiao Yezi, aren't you afraid of being photographed by the paparazzi?" "Of course I'm scared, but… I miss you guys more." But she was more afraid of cohabitating with Bo Tingshen… Being snapped by the paparazzi was at least a problem that could be solved with money, but if the CEO discovered her real identity, she wouldn't be able to explain herself even with half a life. "Looks like brother didn't spoil you for nothing!" Ye Shaowen ruffled her hair, which made her smile from ear to ear. Seeing that he was in a good mood, Ye Xian seized the opportunity, "By the way, second brother, you can sell off that house in Jiuxi Eighteen Islands, I don't want to live there anymore." Ye Shaowen looked puzzled, "Isn't it comfortable living there?" "It's not that, it's just that my current job is really busy. I don't even know how often I can return in a month. Keeping that house empty seems a bit wasteful. I might as well stay at a five-star hotel every day—it would be more economical." Ye Shaowen thought about it and agreed; the Jiuxi Eighteen Islands was quite far from home, after all. Initially, he chose Jiuxi Eighteen Islands for its security and privacy to fend off Bo Tingshen's entanglements. However, he hadn't heard Bo Tingshen's name from Yezi's mouth recently, nor had he seen him around her. Perhaps there was no further involvement? "Xiao Yezi, I want to ask you something." "Has Bo Tingshen been bothering you lately?" At the mention of Bo Tingshen's name, Ye Xian choked on her sandwich and coughed several times. Why is second brother asking this? Did he discover something this morning? That shouldn't be the case, the CEO didn't go out… Ye Shaowen looked at her with concern, "Eat slower, no one's fighting you for it." Ye Xian, seeing the casual concern in his eyes, as if there was no other meaning behind his question, replied, "Of course not, what are you saying, second brother? A busy CEO like him deals with affairs worth tens of millions every minute of the day. Where would he find the time to bother me?" … Just a moment ago, she had been pinned down on the bed by him. Listening to her, Ye Shaowen let out a sigh of relief, but also scoffed at the same time. Ye Xian's heart raised at that scoff. What, what happened? Did he really discover something? He knew all too well that someone like Bo Tingshen, a high-profile figure with power and mystery in the business world, wouldn't truly invest in emotions. Even if he fancied something or someone, it was just for a temporary novelty, just a fling. Luckily, he was wise to pull Yezi away from the fire early on. "Second brother, what's wrong?" "Nothing." Ye Shaowen smiled, "Xiao Yezi, your contract with Star Entertainment is about to expire, isn't it?" "Good, I've already drafted the termination agreement for you, and I've found your next agency. I'll make sure to surprise you at that time." Ye Xian nodded hesitantly. Strange, she had been planning on terminating the contract for a long time, so why did she feel so inexplicably uneasy now that it was nearly due? The car arrived at the Ye Family's house, and Xia Hewan and Ye Zhuoxuan enthusiastically prepared a table full of delicious food upon their daughter's return. Ye Xian, pulling Xia Hewan to the dining table, took a few photos with her, and added a very tragic and sentimental caption. Mission accomplished, she sent them to "Werewolf CEO". In the center of Imperial Capital City, BHS headquarters building, top floor Xiao Sui laid out the information that had been gathered on the CEO's desk. "CEO, the man's name is Qian Meng, the only son of a small coal mine owner from Luxi City. His family has some money, but he nearly squandered it chasing after celebrities. He managed to infiltrate Jiuxi Eighteen Islands this time by paying a hefty sum to a hacker to invade the residential property's information system and because the 'little sister-in-law's' password was too simple, it got cracked. "That hacker's personal ID has already been blocked by me; they'll never show up online again in their lifetime. Additionally, I've encountered a rather tricky issue." He took out another document from the folder, "This Qian Meng is a psychiatric patient and has a medical history at the hospital, which makes it inconvenient for us to deal with him." Bo Tingshen took the psychiatric diagnosis certification from his hand and glanced it over indifferently, "Then let him stay where he belongs, without ever coming out again." Xiao Sui immediately understood his meaning, "Okay." "Is the bodyguard arrangement set?" "Mhm, we've arranged S-level bodyguards. They will follow Xia Yezi's nanny van on any trip she has, ensuring constant accompaniment." Bo Tingshen put down the information, "Also, implant a tracker in Ye Xian's phone and send the endpoint to my phone." Xiao Sui was shocked and looked at him with surprise. The CEO wants to monitor the 'little sister-in-law's' location at all times? Infiltrating a phone and stealing real-time location data isn't difficult at all for him, but... "Wouldn't the 'little sister-in-law' get angry if she finds out about this?" Bo Tingshen raised his eyes to look at him, "It's not me who's implanting the tracker." Xiao Sui: "......" CEO, how can you do this? Isn't this setting someone up! The phone rang, and Bo Tingshen swiped the lock to see the photos Ye Xian had sent along with a contrived, sentimental message. This text is hosted at novel⁂fire.net 'CEO, I also wanted to live in 2001, after all, being by your side feels so secure, and it's easier to take care of you, but then Aunt Xia suddenly called saying she missed me, insisting that I come back and live with her. I think my achievements today, aside from your trust and grooming, CEO, wouldn't have been possible without Aunt Xia's substantial support, and I just couldn't refuse a benefactor's request. You won't mind my reneging, right? You wouldn't want me to turn into an ingrate, would you?' Reading the message, Bo Tingshen tightened his lips slightly. But upon opening the photos, the displeasure at the bottom of his heart lightly dispersed. In the photos, the young man held up a chicken leg, winking happily at him, opened his mouth to receive the porridge the woman was handing over, propped his chin with both hands looking at the camera, clearly brimming with a playful and charming air, looking like a 'little wife' who had returned to her mother's house for fear that her husband might be upset. He typed a few words lightly by the window. [You want to live with Ye Shaowen, don't you?] Ye Xian, seeing the message, was so angry she almost jumped off her stool. Why did he start suspecting again? Surely this is a case of Qin Gui-like paranoia? She's tired of pleading innocence! [Of course not! With Ye Shaowen's busy work schedule, he rarely comes back. It was Aunt Xia who asked me to move back in. If you don't believe me, call her and ask!] Bo Tingshen thought for a moment. [One month, at most.] One month, huh? No problem! By then, she'd be out of her contract. Ye Xian replied happily. Let her indulge a little longer; after all, every moment to come would be monopolized by him alone.
