Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Don’t Worry, Husband Will Take Care of You

Uncle Yan sent back another message, but it was still the same old three words, "It depends!"

Zhu Qianying felt like dashing out and kicking the door, but her body stayed lazily on the bed. Her fingers typed a line, "I’ll get fired!"

This time, the reply came quickly, and surprisingly, it wasn’t the same three words.

"No worries, hubby will take care of you!"

This reply made Zhu Qianying more frustrated than "It depends!"

After reading the message, Zhu Qianying set her phone on silent and tossed it onto her bedside cabinet. She made up her mind to not engage with him anymore.

She didn’t believe he could really follow her every day, could he?

The next morning, Zhu Qianying was woken up by her alarm clock. After she got dressed and went out, Young Master Yan was sitting on the sofa, looking as neat as yesterday. He was holding a cup of tea in one hand and a magazine in the other.

Hearing the door open, Yan Han looked up, "Good morning! Breakfast is on the buffet cart, see what you like! You can order more if needed!"

Yan Han remembered clearly that she had a big appetite.

Zhu Qianying had originally planned to pick up a piece of bread or something on her way, but now that he mentioned he had prepared breakfast, she helped herself. After putting her bag on the sofa, she turned and saw Yan Han pushing a cup of warm milk towards her.

"Thank you!" Zhu Qianying gulped down half the milk, then took the breakfast from the buffet cart. While munching on her bread, she asked, "Where are you going later?"

"I’ll accompany you!" Yan Han seemed to have come with the sole purpose of keeping her company.

"Young Master Yan, I’ve been living in L City for five years and I know my way around far better than you. I don’t need your company!"

Zhu Qianying found Yan Han troublesome.

"Living here for five years doesn’t mean you can protect yourself." Yan Han’s focus was obviously different from Zhu Qianying’s.

Zhu Qianying paused, then looked at him seriously, "Yan Han, did you find something out?"

Yan Han simply raised his eyelids to meet her gaze, "What do you think I should know?"

Zhu Qianying felt a twinge of inexplicable fear from Yan Han’s apparent anger.

In her view, she had cut all ties with Young Master Yan when she left five years ago. Therefore, it was not her responsibility to inform him of her situation.

And of course, he had no obligation to ensure her safety.

"Young Master Yan, those are my own matters." By now, Zhu Qianying had a vague idea why Yan Han had come to M Country.

If she guessed right, he already knew the course of events – she was bullied by punks, cornered to desperation, and she had no choice but to send their baby boy back to him.

And now, his intention was not to handle official work or to take a holiday. He simply came to keep her company.

But they’re technically a married couple only in name. All this wasn’t necessary.

"Young Master Yan, you don’t have to do all this for me!"

If it’s because she sent their son back to him that he wanted to repay her in such a way, he doesn’t need to!

"Ying’er, don’t you understand? I’m worried about you!"

Honestly, he was a little angry. She had experienced such a thing here, even to the point of endangering her life. Yet, she never thought of seeking his help.

Granted, she did eventually seek out protection for their son, which is good.

But what about herself? Was she planning to just ignore her own safety?

Did she think that he, Yan Han, would only care about their son’s safety, and stand idly by when it came to her?

"Thank you!"

Zhu Qianying wasn’t sure how to respond to his concern. A man who neglected her for another woman five years ago was now claiming that he cared about her!

She really didn’t know what to say, other than thank you?

Her gratitude was sincere, but Yan Han could clearly see flashes of sorrow or sadness in her eyes.

That fleeting emotion felt like a sharp blade, effortlessly cutting through Yan Han’s heart.

Caught off guard, a fierce, stabbing pain radiated from his heart.

"Ying’er, I’m really worried about you!"

Yan Han was urgently trying to express his feelings. He hoped that she understood that, besides his son, he desperately wanted to protect her too.

She heard his words, but Zhu Qianying evaluated them as completely unbelievable.

"Hmm, I know! But I’m fine! Don’t worry!"

Zhu Qianying didn’t look at him, just concentrated on biting her bread. Her response was non-committal.

Yan Han silently sighed. In the end, he just dropped her off at the jewelry store and didn’t insist on following her around like yesterday.

Because he knew that following her wouldn’t matter.

As for ensuring her safety, it didn’t necessarily require him to be by her side all the time.

Not long after Zhu Qianying returned to her office, Cheng Ye next door received a call from an unknown number.

"Mr. Cheng, it’s Yan Han!"

Cheng Ye thought he was ready for another verbal spar, and got ready to fight back. However, he heard him say, "Please try to avoid letting Ying’er go out alone in the next few days. Thanks for the trouble."

The same man who was arrogant yesterday was now humbly asking for a favor today. Strange!

But now, nothing was more important than Zhu Qianying’s safety. Mere verbal sparring and token gestures of protest wouldn’t protect Zhu Qianying.

Cheng Ye also understood that Yan Han’s connections and means in this country were certainly stronger than his.

"Alright, I’ll arrange her schedule."

After Yan Han hung up the call with Cheng Ye, he met with Mike.

Right now, he didn’t have the luxury of considering Zhu Qianying’s feelings. His top priority was to expose the person Mike mentioned.

The information he got from Mike though, shocked him.

"Yan, I’ve got enough evidence to prove that the jewelry store owner who instigated the punks to trouble Mrs. Yan had dealings with a man surnamed Zhu before this."

"The surname is Zhu?" Yan Han thought he misheard. He had almost forgotten that Zhu Qianying was the Fifth Miss of Zhu Family in L City.

Mike nodded, "Yes!"

"Zhu Junzhao?" Yan Han’s first reaction was Zhu Junzhao, Zhu Qianying’s elder brother!

Mike thought for a while, trying to distinguish the name Yan Han mentioned from the one he referred to. Finally, he shook his head and said,

"No, not Zhu Junzhao, it’s Zhu Junwei!"

Zhu Junwei? The current CEO and Chairman of Mingxuan Group, Zhu Junwei?

As Yan Han was processing this information, he heard Mike ask, "Does this man have any relationship with Mrs. Yan?"

"Hmm, he’s her third brother!"
