Chapter 124: 0122 looking for heroes on the plane!
"Looks like I’ve been hated by someone else."
Listening to Ye Qiu’s bitter smile, Huang Ya showed an apologetic look and hurriedly said, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. I don’t want a boyfriend right now; I just want to focus on my job first."
"Forget it, one more person hating me doesn’t make much of a difference." Ye Qiu waved his hand dismissively and let go of the matter.
"Um... I want to say thank you," Huang Ya said nervously, her gaze following Ye Qiu’s retreating figure as she raised her voice.
"Thank me for what?" Ye Qiu asked curiously as he turned around.
"Thank you for not having the company fire me. I won’t make the same mistake again," Huang Ya said earnestly.
Ye Qiu smiled, didn’t say anything, nodded, and walked to the door of Shen Mengchen’s office.
Huang Ya watched Ye Qiu enter the office, thinking to herself that she must do her assigned work well and not let down Shen Mengchen’s trust.
Ye Qiu entered the office where Shen Mengchen was buried in her work, not even lifting her eyelids.
"Just leave the materials on the desk, and you can go out if there’s nothing else," Shen Mengchen said without realizing that the person who had come in was Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu didn’t say a word and slowly walked to the chair by the window, where he sat down.
The sunlight was warm, and the room was flooded with light shining through the floor-to-ceiling window, illuminating almost every corner of the office.
Ye Qiu sat quietly in the chair, eyeing the half-visible Shen Mengchen.
Dressed in a black, stylish short-sleeve suit jacket paired with a simple skirt, her slender legs were wrapped in black stockings, which looked proportionate and delicate, exuding a captivating charm.
After a few days of not seeing her, she seemed to have grown up a lot; her aura was maturing.
Ye Qiu inwardly gave her an appraisal, eyeing Shen Mengchen from top to bottom. After several days apart, she began to radiate the aura of a strong female executive.
Shen Mengchen was engrossed in analyzing the market, her pen never stopping. Suddenly, she felt a pair of eyes on her, staring at her.
Shen Mengchen subconsciously thought an intruder had entered the company and quickly turned her pen around to face the source of the gaze.
"Ye... Ye Qiu..." Upon seeing him, Shen Mengchen’s nervousness vanished, replaced by surprise.
"Why are you here?" ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
"My job is to protect you, of course I had to come," Ye Qiu said with a smile.
Shen Mengchen showed contempt as soon as Ye Qiu mentioned his job, "Hmph, you still remember your duty is to protect me? After disappearing for so many days, I thought you no longer wanted to be a bodyguard."
Ye Qiu coughed, a bit embarrassed. This girl’s mouth was as unyielding as ever.
"Since I took Uncle Shen’s money, naturally I have to fulfill my responsibility. I wasn’t here before because there were some important matters. You wouldn’t blame me, would you, Miss?"
"Hmph, what matters could be more important than my safety?" Shen Mengchen had finally found something to hold against Ye Qiu and certainly wasn’t going to let it go easily; she demanded an honest explanation from him.
Seeing that he couldn’t outstubborn Shen Mengchen, Ye Qiu simply relayed the incident of Ye Zi being kidnapped in brief. Learning that it was because of Ye Zi that Ye Qiu had disappeared, Shen Mengchen grudgingly forgave him.
She had met Ye Zi; the girl was very quiet and not at all bothersome. Moreover, Shen Mengchen knew that Ye Zi was Ye Qiu’s sister. Since Ye Zi was in danger and Ye Qiu had specially rushed to her rescue, it would seem heartless to blame him any further.
"Alright, alright, let’s consider the matter settled. After all, I didn’t face any danger while you were gone," Shen Mengchen said generously, not pressing Ye Qiu further. "I’m busy with company business all day long, hardly going out. Even if you were here, you wouldn’t be of much help."
Ye Qiu stayed in the office for an hour before leaving.
Shen Mengchen had really grown up; from her way of talking, Ye Qiu could tell more and more about her maturity. She was no longer the youthful and energetic beauty who spent her days wanting for nothing. Now, Shen Mengchen was heading further down the path of a strong, successful woman.
Shen Mengchen said that tonight after work, it would be enough for Ye Qiu to come pick her up; at other times, Ye Qiu could arrange things on his own.
With nothing in particular to do, Ye Qiu strolled down the streets, watching the flow of people coming and going without any direction in mind.
Near an intersection, a news flash on a large screen caught Ye Qiu’s eye.
"The recent case of an airplane robbery has concluded in court. The criminals have been sentenced to between three and ten years in prison."
"This airplane robbery came unexpectedly and could have led to much more severe casualties if not for the appearance of a mysterious hero."
"Who is this mysterious hero? The hero vanished after the plane landed, and we did not get to meet them."
"The courage of this mysterious hero merits our praise. At the strong request of the passengers, a notice has been posted to find the mysterious hero from the plane. If anyone has seen or knows this mysterious hero, please contact our reporters..."
Immediately after, a profile picture appeared on the screen. The angle wasn’t very good, so the face was not fully visible. After looking at it, Ye Qiu touched his own face; wasn’t that him?
Had he been captured on camera when he had acted?
Ye Qiu was a bit taken aback, but he hadn’t paid much attention to these things at the time. The idea of the whole city now searching for him left him somewhat speechless. He had no desire to be some mysterious hero. As the saying goes, ’fear the fame as the pig fears fattening.’ Ye Qiu understood it well—it was better to stay low-profile.
Seeing that the passersby around him didn’t notice him, Ye Qiu quickly stood his collar up to cover a bit of his face and swiftly vanished into the streets.
When Ye Qiu returned to the goddess’ villa, Niu Yinyin was watching TV, and coincidentally, just as he entered, the TV was broadcasting the same news about finding the mysterious hero that he’d seen on the street’s big screen.
"Wow, capturing a robber, that mysterious hero is so cool, I really want to see what he looks like!" Niu Yinyin sat on the couch, her eyes wide with enthusiasm, as she tried to commit the side profile of the mysterious hero to memory.
Hearing the door, Niu Yinyin saw that it was Ye Qiu and said, "Brother Ye Qiu’s back," then continued to focus on the only picture of the mysterious hero’s side profile.
Ye Qiu had planned to go straight to his room, but he hadn’t taken many steps before the little girl, Niu Yinyin, called out to him.
"Brother Ye Qiu, wait a second."
Niu Yinyin jumped off the sofa and walked up to Ye Qiu, sizing him up with her bright, sparkling eyes.
The more Niu Yinyin looked, the more she felt that Ye Qiu resembled the mysterious hero mentioned on TV. Finally, she ran to Ye Qiu’s side to observe his profile again. Not even five seconds passed before she suddenly exclaimed.
"You are the mysterious hero!"
Ye Qiu felt embarrassed. How had this girl seen through him? He asked, "How can you be so sure it’s me? Maybe I just look similar to him."
Niu Yinyin wore a skeptical expression and then confidently said, "You’re definitely the mysterious hero reported on TV. Your hairstyles are identical. Look, even your clothes are the same. Baby isn’t dumb. You’re one and the same person."
Niu Yinyin was right; he hadn’t even changed his clothes, still wearing the same ones from the plane.
Ye Qiu knew he couldn’t hide it anymore. It was just unfortunate he hadn’t anticipated someone would declare a search for him on the news afterward.
"Shh, don’t tell anyone about this. Let’s just keep it as our little secret, okay?" Ye Qiu made a shushing gesture and bent down to speak to Niu Yinyin.
"But I want to share this news with everyone. Brother Ye Qiu, you’re a hero; why not let more people recognize you?"
"What does a little kid like you understand?"
"Just say what treat you’d like to have, I’ll go buy it for you," Ye Qiu saw Niu Yinyin was excited and decided to play his trump card to keep her quiet.
"Hehe, Brother Ye Qiu is the best. I want lots and lots of snacks, all the delicious ones!" Niu Yinyin showed an adorable expression, laughing very happily.
