Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Doubt

Thinking about this, Xia Yue sent Xia Yu a message, asking him to come home with her the next day to see their grandparents, and to tell him about her own matters.

Xia Yu had been waiting for the message from Xia Yue. Seeing her text, he felt a pang of sourness. His little sister, who he had pampered since childhood, indeed had her own little secrets. He felt as if his own homegrown vegetable had been dug up by a pig.

Despite this, he replied to her that he could come.

After sitting for an hour, Xia Yue finally heard the end of their conversation.

In fact, Commander Wei and the others had noticed Xia Yue’s absence of mind earlier. She wasn’t really listening to them, but they didn’t force her to stay and listen.

After the discussion, Commander Wei had Yan Mo take Xia Yue home.

The moment Xia Yue heard they were heading home, her spirit immediately lifted.

"We will depart in a week. Conditions over there are a little crude, so you may need to bear with it," Yan Mo told Xia Yue on the way home.

"No problem, I can stand it. As long as there’s a signal that allows me to go online, I’m fine," Xia Yue replied.

"That won’t be an issue. We will pick you up at your front door in a week. Make your preparations," Yan Mo said.

"OK," Xia Yue responded with a radiant smile.

After dropping her off at home, Yan Mo left directly.

The next day, she got up just after eight o’clock. After breakfast, she waited for Xia Yu to pick her up to visit their grandparents.

Despite sitting in Xia Yu’s car en route, Xia Yu’s face didn’t look too good.

"Big brother, are you angry?" Xia Yue carefully asked after hesitating for a moment.

"You tell me first, who were you with yesterday? What did you do? And why do you want to see our grandparents today? I remember we visited them just a week ago," Xia Yu asked.

Xia Yue frowned, looking at him with difficulty.

"Let’s find a place to sit. I will tell you first, but you cannot tell anyone else, absolutely no one, okay?" Xia Yue said.

"Okay," Xia Yu nodded, then drove to a quiet teahouse, ordering a private room and some dim sum.

After the tea and dim sum were served, he locked the door.

Xia Yue asked the system to check if there were any cameras or listening devices hidden in the room, and made sure there were none.

"Okay. You can start now," Xia Yu said after taking a sip of tea.

"You promise not to tell anyone?" Xia Yue asked with eyes wide open.

"I promise," Xia Yu said, looking at her earnestly.

"Yesterday it was Yan Mo from the Yan family who came to pick me up. I’ve been cooperating with him on something and had to sign some agreements. Regarding why we’re cooperating, I can’t tell you, but I assure you I’m not doing anything bad or being threatened.

We will leave Kyoto in six days to carry out the cooperation. If nothing happens, we probably won’t be back," Xia Yue said while looking at Xia Yu.

Regardless, she felt that Xia Yu would not be able to figure out the reasons at all. All her information is currently highly concealed, and nobody below Commander Wei’s level can access it.

"Leaving Kyoto? And you insist you aren’t being threatened? Count how many times have you travelled from childhood until now? You always like to stay at home. Now you claim that due to some cooperation, you’ll even leave Kyoto, and you are unsure when you will return. Do you think I will believe you?" Xia Yu argued angrily.

"I really wasn’t threatened, I was with Yan Mo from the Yan family. You should know him," Xia Yue said as she looked at him.

"Are you sure it’s Yan Mo from the Yan family? You didn’t misidentify him, have you? Yan Mo rarely appears in public," Xia Yu asked with suspicion.
