In S City, early in the morning, when Yu Jin came down from upstairs, she saw a man in camouflage clothes sitting on the sofa in the living room. Hearing footsteps, the man turned around sharply and happened to meet her inquiring gaze. The man had a masculine face, short messy hair, regular features, and a pair of deep eyes as sharp as an eagle.

He was tall and strong, with clear muscle lines, exuding a strong aura. His camouflage uniform was covered with dust and sweat, but he did not look embarrassed at all, but instead added a bit of iron-blooded manly charm.

Yu Jin couldn't help but look around the living room in confusion. Yu Shuyan wasn't there either... She took the initiative to ask, "Excuse me, who are you?"

The man stood up and turned to look at her, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. Didn't Shu Yan tell her that he would come? But he still replied politely, "My name is Qin Zhen, and I'm a soldier." His voice was deep and powerful, with a firm tone.

Yu Jin looked at him curiously and continued to ask: "Then why are you here?"

Qin Zhen was silent for a moment and then said, "I was entrusted by a friend to protect someone, and that person is you."

Yu Jin opened her mouth in surprise. She had never thought that she needed protection. But facing Qin Zhen's determined eyes, she felt that perhaps there was really some danger waiting for her.

"You have met before?" Yu Shuyan ran in from the door, panting slightly. It can be seen that he was in a hurry to come back from outside.

He couldn't help but laugh at the two people's eyes that needed explanation, "It's my fault. I didn't tell Xiao Jin that you were coming over in advance."

Yu Jin then slowly walked down the stairs, walked up to Qin Zhen and extended his hand to him in a friendly manner, "Hello, Yu Jin."

Qin Yun glanced at the hand stretched out in front of him, and slowly raised his hand to shake it.

Seeing that the two knew each other, Yu Shuyan smiled with satisfaction, turned to Yu Jin and explained: "Ah Yun has been doing military training abroad and is preparing to return to China recently. I know you are coming to S City, and I am worried about your safety, so I specially invited him to protect you."

Yu Jin couldn't help but frown after hearing this, and asked in confusion: "But we came to S City to participate in project exchange activities, why do we have to mobilize so many people? Do you suspect that someone will hurt us?"

Yu Shuyan smiled slightly, looked at Yu Jin lovingly and said, "Xiao Jin, I am your brother. Don't I know what you are thinking? Although I don't know what you want to do specifically, I know you must have your own ideas and plans. Since you insist on coming to S City, I can only do my best to protect you."

Yu Jin felt guilty after hearing what her brother said. She didn't hide it from her brother and grandfather on purpose, but she felt that she had to deal with this matter herself. She couldn't let her family be in danger again because of her and her mother's affairs.

Yu Shuyan seemed to be aware of his sister's thoughts. He patted her head gently and comforted her, "Xiaojin, don't feel sorry for me and Grandpa. I know that your aunt's matter has been bothering you. You want to find out the truth of the past. This is your knot. I understand your determination, and I also understand that you don't want us to worry, so you didn't tell us the truth. Now that Ah Yun is with you, at least in this crisis-ridden S City, I can feel more at ease."

Yu Jin's eyes were red. She always thought she could handle things on her own, but in fact, there was always someone behind her to support her and protect her from the wind and rain.

The three of them had breakfast, Yu Shuyan went to school to work on a project, and Yu Jin and Qin Yun went out together.

Qin Yun's camouflage uniform was too eye-catching, so Yu Jin had no choice but to take him to a clothing store to get a makeover.

For Qin Yun, camouflage uniforms are his standard of life. He rarely wears private clothes because he is used to the military lifestyle and dressing style. When he puts on other clothes, he always feels awkward, as if he has lost his freedom and comfort.

Yu Jin tried several suits for Qin Yun, but there were problems every time. Either he kept pulling at his tie or unbuttoning his shirt, completely unable to adapt to this formal outfit. However, this scene made all the waitresses in the store happy. They were attracted by Qin Yun's handsome appearance and cast admiring glances at him.

In desperation, Yu Jin could only choose a black jacket suit. Unexpectedly, Qin Yun instantly turned into a Korean drama Oppa after putting it on, which was more eye-catching than the camouflage uniform he usually wore! !

Fortunately, the jacket did not make him feel uncomfortable this time, and he finally found a relatively comfortable outfit. In the end, the two of them unanimously approved the outfit of this jacket.

After placing the purchased clothes neatly in the trunk, Qin Yun drove with Yu Jin to the place she mentioned - Xiyuanling, a black trading house in S City.

Before this, he had privately asked Bai Yecheng about the truth behind his mother's accident.

Bai Yecheng was a little frightened at the time and didn't know when she knew this secret.

But in order to avoid being kicked out in the future, he still told some of the things he knew.

It turned out that after his mother married him, they had never slept together. At first, because of her pregnancy, she had always resisted getting close to him. Later, when she was born, Bai Yecheng thought that they could finally become a real couple. Unexpectedly, his mother stayed in the company and came back almost every night in the early hours, just to avoid Bai Yecheng.

One night, Bai Yecheng waited until very late just to wait for her to get off work. However, while waiting, he accidentally heard his mother receiving a phone call. At that time, his mother's expression seemed very painful and uncomfortable, as if the person on the other end of the phone was talking about something that she could not bear. When the other party mentioned the name "Xiyuanling", his mother's face turned as pale as paper and her body began to tremble. In the end, she lost control of her emotions and threw the phone to the ground.

That night, Bai Yecheng did not take the initiative to go out to look for his mother as usual. Instead, he chose to stay at home, turned on the computer, and began to search for information about "Xiyuanling" on the Internet. After some effort, he finally found some clues. It turned out that Xiyuanling was the largest black trading place in S City. All transactions here were strictly protected and no one could easily interfere. What was even more shocking was that his mother had a close connection with such a dangerous place.

So she came here first when she came to S City this time. She thought she might be able to find some clues here.

Qin Yun was also shocked when he learned about this place. Although he had been abroad for many years, he was not unfamiliar with the name "Xiyuanling". The reputation of this place had long spread throughout the entire circle, and almost all the bigwigs had heard of its existence. However, because the people behind this industrial chain were too powerful, no one dared to provoke them easily, so this trading house was able to exist for a long time.

The car slowly stopped at the gate of Xiyuanling. Yu Jin gently rolled down the window and gazed at the magnificent gate. The antique stone pillars were carefully carved with the totem of the Teng Snake. Although it was daytime, the surrounding atmosphere made people feel as if they were in a damp environment.

Yu Jin turned around and saw Qin Yun with a worried look on his face. He asked softly, "Are you sure you want to go in?"

She looked back at the three words "Xiyuanling" and nodded calmly and firmly, as if she was ready to face everything.
