Chapter 893: Chapter 893: I Really Was Too Careless
He Jinxuan furrowed his brows, looking at Xinyan: "If it’s not those people from before, who else would do something like this?"
Xinyan thought carefully for a long time. She hadn’t done anything to incur public wrath. She lifted her head to look at He Jinxuan: "Could it be aimed at you?"
He Jinxuan, hearing this, recalled the previous incidents and indeed couldn’t assure himself that those people had nothing to do with him. After all, who doesn’t have a few close friends or relatives?
If that’s the case, wouldn’t it mean he’s dragging Xinyan into this? Worried, he said, "Yanyan, if those people are indeed after me, it’s very likely you could get implicated. I’ve truly been careless."
Seeing his expression, Xinyan was about to say something when she felt a change in He Jinxuan’s demeanor, quickly looking up at him: "Jinxuan, what’s wrong?"
A flicker of something dark passed through He Jinxuan’s eyes. Afraid of scaring Xinyan, he quickly suppressed his aura: "I won’t let anything happen to you."
Xinyan suddenly laughed: "With my skills, even if those people want to use me as leverage, do you think I’ll let them succeed?"
Though He Jinxuan knew Xinyan’s skills were exceptional, those people acted recklessly.
He couldn’t be by her side at all times, and the thought worried him greatly: "Yanyan, this matter mustn’t be taken lightly. You need to be careful, understand?"
Fearing He Jinxuan might nag further, Xinyan said, "I remember, don’t worry."
Seeing she took his words to heart, He Jinxuan finally relaxed a bit, though he still harbored other concerns.
It seemed that until these people were completely eradicated, Yanyan would never have peace. Regardless of who sent them, he needed to root them out quickly.
Watching Xinyan enter the small courtyard, he reminded her to lock the doors and windows before leaving.
Just after leaving the courtyard, he headed straight to Qin Peiliang’s place.
He couldn’t always stay by Xinyan’s side, and leaving her like this made him uneasy, so he asked Qin Peiliang to have someone keep an eye on the place.
There was no question of troubling Qin Peiliang, as they were once brothers in life and death. Besides, he often helped Qin Peiliang too; good brothers don’t fuss over such things.
Subsequently, he borrowed a car to make a trip to the suburbs, as Han Jingchen hadn’t kept Gu Family’s matters from He Jinxuan.
He couldn’t distinguish whether these people were after the Gu Family or himself, but Xinyan’s safety could not be compromised, so he needed to discuss it with his father-in-law.
Soon, he arrived at the suburban house.
Han Jingchen was quite alert. Hearing the sound of a car outside the main gate, he opened his eyes.
After confirming the car did stop at his gate, he got up, dressed quietly, opened the door softly, listened to the sounds outside, and then walked towards the gate.
When he reached the gate, he asked in a low voice: "Who’s outside?"
Upon hearing the question, He Jinxuan quickly replied: "Uncle, it’s me, Jinxuan. I need to discuss something with you."
Han Jingchen, upon hearing it was He Jinxuan, felt somewhat puzzled.
However, thinking of his daughter, he immediately opened the gate and asked anxiously: "Is Yanyan in trouble?"
He Jinxuan quickly responded: "Yanyan is fine, let’s talk inside."
Knowing his daughter was fine, Han Jingchen wasn’t as anxious and led him into the study room: "Speak, what exactly happened?"
He Jinxuan’s expression was somewhat grave: "Today, after accompanying Yanyan from the master’s place, we found ourselves being trailed again.
But Yanyan and I also noticed that this time these individuals were not as skilled as the previous ones, since they didn’t hide well. Not long after leaving the master’s place, we sensed something was off."
Upon hearing this, Han Jingchen’s eyes were filled with cold severity: "Looks like those people are getting restless."
He Jinxuan hurriedly added: "Uncle, there’s one more thing I need to tell you; there’s a possibility that tonight’s people were after me."
Han Jingchen slightly raised an eyebrow: "What thing?"
After a light cough, He Jinxuan recounted the incident that occurred during the car trip and then detailed the Jian Family’s matters.
After listening, Han Jingchen’s expression appeared grim.
He Jinxuan dared not defend himself since the issue arose because of him, it was his fault.
At such times, he knew any defense was futile and might backfire.
