It was already ten o'clock the next morning when Yu Jin woke up. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains onto the bed, soft and warm. She slowly opened her eyes, and when she turned her head, she happened to meet Jing Tingxiao's deep and gentle eyes. For a moment, she was a little stunned, and her eyes gradually became clear.

"I made breakfast for you, would you like to try it?" Jing Tingxiao said softly, with a hint of doting in his voice. He slowly approached Yu Jin and rubbed her cheek gently, like a docile big cat.

Yu Jin couldn't help but laugh, and her mood became relaxed and happy. She nodded slightly, indicating that she was hungry.

Linghu Wei was sitting downstairs, chewing whole wheat toast, looking as if he had lost all hope in life. At this moment, he heard some noise coming from the stairs. It turned out that a couple was coming down. He saw that the third brother's eyes were always fixed on Yu Jin.

When he saw them coming downstairs intimately, Linghu Wei stared at them with an unconvinced look on his face. He couldn't help but accuse Jing Tingxiao in his heart, muttering: "There are people who are inhumane to the opposite sex."

Jing Tingxiao heard Linghu Ying's complaint, but he just paused, glanced at him indifferently, and said indifferently: "Noisy." After that, he ignored it and continued to focus on taking care of Yu Jin.

Linghu Ying rolled his eyes in anger, held up the toast, buried his head in the sofa, and tried to calm himself down. However, the dissatisfaction and anger in his heart did not subside, and he even wanted to bite off the sofa under his face.

When he quietly got up from the sofa, he was surprised to find that the couple was actually having breakfast together in the kitchen, and they were eating the food that the third brother personally cooked! Linghu Wei's eyes widened, and he felt angry and greedy. You know, he was awakened from his sweet dream by the tempting aroma. But when he came to the kitchen, the third brother resolutely refused to let him taste a bite!

He stared at the kitchen fiercely, biting a piece of toast more angrily. Yu Jin felt uncomfortable with the look, and glanced at him, just in time to see his embarrassing look, and almost choked. "Do you want to ask the vice president to come over to eat?"

Jing Tingxiao smoothed her back and said disapprovingly, "He is on a diet recently and can't eat these."

Yu Jin believed his words without a doubt. After all, Linghu Wei usually dressed very delicately, so it was easy to believe that he lost weight to control his figure.

Linghu Ying jumped over from the sofa and walked towards the two of them slowly. "Hey, little beauty, your brother asked me about you this morning."

Yu Jin looked at Jing Tingxiao and asked doubtfully, "Doesn't my brother know that I'm here with you?"

When Jing Tingxiao heard Linghu Ying say that Yu Shuyan and the Qin family failed to protect Yu Jin, he said sarcastically: "What's the use of a few grown men who can't even protect a woman!"

Yu Jin smiled helplessly and explained, "I was determined to go to Xiyuanling. My brother and Brother Qin were also implicated by me, so they couldn't spare any effort to save me."

Linghu Wei took the opportunity to sit across from the two of them, picked up his chopsticks and started eating silently, but he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Are you so familiar with the Qin family? You call me Brother Qin so affectionately."

Yu Jin glanced at him and answered helplessly, "This Qin Yun is my brother's friend for many years. He has been abroad and was called over by my brother recently. It turns out that he is the son of the eldest young master of the Qin family. My brother and I just found out about this."

Linghu Wei continued to listen to their conversation while eating, as if he was very interested in the topic.

Jing Tingxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and he glanced at Linghu Wei before turning to look at Yu Jin: "Zou Ji has always liked women, but he is also very cautious, and it is rare to see him reaching out to people of status. The relationship between Mr. Yu and the Qin family is almost known to everyone in S City, so he would not risk offending the Qin family to touch you."

Yu Jin frowned, thinking about the reason for this matter. She really couldn't understand why someone would want to hurt her grandfather.

At this time, Linghu Wei suddenly said, "Maybe it's because of you, Third Brother! That year, you rarely went back to S City, and happened to meet Zou Ji who was talking about Old Man Yu's escape to Xiyuanling. Zou Ji even fought with Old Man Yu. You couldn't stand it, so you taught him a lesson. That fight injured Zou Ji's roots. I heard that he couldn't move for half a year."

Hearing this, Yu Jin finally understood that Jing Tingxiao had saved her grandfather from Zou Ji. This fact shocked her, and at the same time she was full of gratitude towards Jing Tingxiao.

Jing Tingxiao heard something else and said, "If Zou Ji was targeting me, then the matter between Yu Yu and me couldn't have spread to S City. How did he know about it?"

Linghu Wei stuffed his mouth full again, but after hearing Jing Tingxiao's analysis, he suddenly became serious, eating his food and mumbling, "Someone tipped off."

Jing Tingxiao and Yu Jin looked at each other and realized that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated. Zou Ji was a gun and was being used by someone?

Qin Shen, Yu Shuyan and Qin Yun came to Jing Tingxiao's villa together. When they saw that Yu Jin was safe and sound, they gradually felt relieved.

But Qin Shen brought another more explosive news, that is, the owner behind Xiyuanling was actually from Muzhou.

Hearing Muzhou Jingtingxiao's words, there was a hint of surprise between his eyebrows.

"Fu Jiuyao?" he asked

Qin Shen glanced at him and nodded. The name Fu Jiuyao was too familiar to them. He was the king of Muzhou at the age of ten and had the title of underground thousand-year-old. He founded a first-level intelligence agency at the age of twelve, trained mercenaries at the age of fifteen, and controlled the economic lifeline of most of China at the age of twenty. Everyone knew who he was, and no one dared to underestimate his existence.

As for Jing Tingxiao, the two of them had a real fight before. They were heroes who admired heroes, but they were also natural enemies. In recent years, the competition has turned from secret to open. Both of them knew it, but no one said it out loud. They just waited silently for an opportunity.

Jiuyao... Jiuyao... Yu Jin repeated these two words in her heart, and a familiar feeling arose from the bottom of her heart, as if something was stirring and wanted to break out of the ground. But she couldn't be sure what this feeling was, so she could only frown and try to recall it.

Qin Shen's words interrupted her thoughts: "He sent a confidant with a letter today, hoping that everyone who appeared in Xiyuanling yesterday could come here as a guest."

Linghu Wei slammed the table hard and jumped up, shouting angrily: "What! Does Fu Jiuyao want to fight?"

Yu Shuyan shook his head to indicate that it was impossible. "Zou Ji was found dead in the back mountain of Xiyuanling yesterday. Today, Fu Jiuyao took over Xiyuanling and posted to us. Is he seeking justice for Zou Ji? Not necessarily."

He paused and continued, "Fu Jiuyao is well-known. If Xiyuanling is Muzhou's industry, it has been hidden in the downtown area for so many years. I think it exists to collect intelligence. Fu Jiuyao has many industries under his name and has too many enemies. This Xiyuanling is just the right place to find out some of the most hidden things. Zou Ji abused his power to make money and hunt women for himself. I think Fu Jiuyao doesn't know about it."

Jing Tingxiao and Qin Shen also agreed with this statement. If Fu Jiuyao wanted to make money and hunt for women, he would not need to rely on such means. With his status and position, he would have countless financial resources, not to mention women.

"Could it be that Zou Ji was..." Linghu Ying said silently
