Chapter 757: 795 Chapter: Persuasion to Leave

Li Yifei was not worried that the security guards in the residential complex would find out what had happened. Since the three men had been lurking there, they must have already tampered with the surveillance cameras or directly interfered with them using technology. However, he would certainly need to deal with the bodies of the three men he had killed.

He immediately called someone from his mercenary organization and then dragged the three bodies into a corner. Although it wasn’t quitting time yet, it wasn’t impossible for cars to return to the parking lot.

He went over to Ning Xin’er who was still standing behind her car, and saw her smile faintly at him, asking, "Is everything all right?" As a member of a prominent family, Ning Xin’er was able to face such situations with composure, similar to Su Mengxin. The best thing for her to do at that time was to follow Li Yifei’s instructions. If she moved from where Li Yifei had placed her, it would not only cause him trouble, but also put herself in danger. Thus, after Li Yifei moved her behind the car, she only stood there without moving.

"All’s well now. Were you scared?" On Li Yifei’s face there was a look of resolute calmness tinged with a hint of murderous intent. Having just killed three people, he couldn’t simply act as if nothing had happened.

Ning Xin’er took his hand and said, "How could I be scared with you here? I know you would protect me."

His hand grasped Ning Xin’er’s soft one, and the murderous aura on Li Yifei slowly dissipated. He smiled and said, "Just three small fries, totally clueless."

"So your nickname was Golden Eagle? It sounds nice, I like it," Ning Xin’er said with another sweet smile.

Li Yifei laughed, "That was just something others concocted. Now I’m just Li Yifei, not any Golden Eagle."

"You might think so, but others still know you as the infamous Golden Eagle. You bad boy, I really had no idea Golden Eagle was you. If I had known earlier, I would have come looking for you directly." After Ning Xin’er gave birth and returned to the Ning Family, she had heard of Golden Eagle’s reputation as a top expert in Huaxia. She never imagined that the very same Golden Eagle was Li Yifei, who had gotten her pregnant, or else she would have sought him out long ago.

Li Yifei gave a dry laugh and said, "Alright, let’s go."

"But what about them..." Ning Xin’er knew Li Yifei had taken care of the three men. Although she had not seen them die, she felt it was not a good thing to leave the bodies there.

Li Yifei smiled faintly, "Someone will take care of it." He then pulled Ning Xin’er towards the stairwell.

Just as Li Yifei and Ning Xin’er had disappeared into the stairwell, three people appeared in the parking lot. They quickly removed the bodies and even cleaned up the bloodstains on the ground so thoroughly that no one could tell that a fierce fight had taken place there, let alone that three people had died.

Li Yifei didn’t go straight home but instead went to Ning Xin’er’s house with her. They sat down in the living room, where Ning Xin’er poured him a glass of water and softly said, "From what they said, it seems they came looking for revenge against you."

Li Yifei nodded and replied, "It looks like news of me being in Mile City got out somehow. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have targeted me directly."

"So, what should we do?" Ning Xin’er asked, looking at Li Yifei with concern.

Li Yifei said, "If it were just me they were targeting, I wouldn’t care. But now I’m afraid they might go after the people close to me. Staying here isn’t safe for you, so I think you should go back to Capital City for now. It will be much safer there."

"I won’t! I want to be with you," Ning Xin’er immediately pouted, clutching Li Yifei’s arm tightly.

Li Yifei knew that Ning Xin’er could be stubborn and only spoke softly, "I’ll settle this matter soon, and then if you want to come back, you can."

"I don’t care, you just want to send me away."

"Silly girl, if it were someone irrelevant to me, whether they’re by my side or not, I wouldn’t care about their safety, right?"

Ning Xin’er paused, then suddenly broke into a smile, "So that means... you’re also admitting that I’m your woman."

Li Yifei mentally sighed. If he didn’t admit it now, Ning Xin’er definitely wouldn’t leave. He could only laugh and say, "What do you think? You’ve given birth to a daughter, it doesn’t seem like I could deny it even if I wanted to."

Ning Xin’er’s face flushed with excitement and her eyes even reddened. Her lips trembled, and she found herself speechless for a while.

Li Yifei let out an inward sigh. Thinking it over, Ning Xin’er was indeed pitiable. She had suffered so much for him, giving birth to a daughter, yet he was still the most distant from her. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and said, "Be good, listen to me. I like my obedient Little Xin’er, not the wild girl who always fights me."

Ning Xin’er quickly wiped her eyes and said, "I’ll be obedient, I’ll be obedient. I’ll pack up in a moment and head straight back to Capital City."

Li Yifei looked at Ning Xin’er and found it a bit amusing. It turned out that Ning Xin’er wasn’t that difficult to deal with after all. As long as he cajoled her properly, she was quite tractable. By avoiding and fearing her, he had only made her less compliant. He realized that to placate Ning Xin’er in the future, he just needed to offer her some incentives, and it wouldn’t be hard to get her to cooperate.

He gently kissed Ning Xin’er on the face and said, "Such a good girl."

Ning Xin’er was even more delighted. She felt that Li Yifei had truly kissed her this time and, choking up, she said, "You really kissed me... you really kissed me."

"Yes! I kissed you, and it was sweet." Li Yifei kissed her gently again.

Ning Xin’er threw herself into Li Yifei’s arms and began to cry, her sobs growing louder as if she were unleashing years of pent-up grievances.

Li Yifei just gently patted Ning Xin’er’s back, allowing her to cry. He could now understand why she was crying and didn’t feel good about it. If it hadn’t been for his marriage to Xu Yingying six months earlier, he would have definitely agreed to marry Ning Xin’er without hesitation.

Finally, Ning Xin’er had cried enough and sat up, only to see that she had soaked a large patch on Li Yifei’s chest. She said somewhat sheepishly, "I’ve made your clothes all wet."

"No worries, I’ll change when I get home."

"I have some here too." Ning Xin’er immediately went to her room and found a suit for Li Yifei, which was clearly a designer brand.

Li Yifei didn’t hesitate to put on the suit. Ning Xin’er looked him over with satisfaction and nodded, saying, "You look so handsome in a suit."

Li Yifei couldn’t help but grin and said with a smile, "You, you’d think I look handsome in anything."

"Of course, love is blind, isn’t it? In my eyes, you’re the most handsome, no matter what you wear, even if you wear nothing at all."

Li Yifei laughed and said, "Alright then, let’s go to my place first, so that I won’t worry about you being here alone."

Ning Xin’er nodded and then smirked, "Don’t worry, I won’t cause any trouble at your house. I’ll be very well-behaved."

This was quite a pleasant surprise for Li Yifei. Treating Ning Xin’er well could have such an effect. It seemed that the alliance between Ning Xin’er and Lin Qiong was easy to break after all. Otherwise, if the two girls started making trouble, that would really give Li Yifei a headache.

Back at Li Yifei’s home, Xu Yingying and the others were there. Ning Xin’er wasn’t demure upon arrival; she was just like before. Ning Xin’er, after all, was a star, albeit only in singing. She had also done some advertising, so her acting talents were high. Her performance was sure to outshine that of ordinary people.

After some small talk, Xu Yingying asked about the relatives who had visited the day before. Ning Xin’er recounted the events of the previous day, including incidents like Song Tao and Meng Lei drinking too much—all of which could be told truthfully. However, when it came to the part about resting at the end, Ning Xin’er gave Li Yifei a glance and then said to Xu Yingying with a hint of sourness, "Yingying, you really have a way with your husband. He actually slept on the floor in my house last night."

This made Xu Yingying quite unhappy. She knew very well that under yesterday’s circumstances, Li Yifei would have definitely stayed in the same room with Ning Xin’er. She could even imagine them holding each other. It was natural for Ning Xin’er to take the initiative, as she’d always held a torch for Li Yifei, and since they had been intimate before, starting again would be even easier. Men were usually quite helpless in such situations; the likelihood of them having an affair seemed very high.

Ning Xin’er’s comment left Xu Yingying unsure how to respond. If she praised Li Yifei, it would directly insult Ning Xin’er. To say something modest seemed even more pretentious, so she simply chuckled and said, "Ha, I don’t have that skill."

Ning Xin’er glared at Li Yifei again and said, "Then I must be the one lacking skills. Forget it, forget it, I’ll be bothering you here for a while. I plan to stay in Capital City for some time, so Yingying, you will have to take good care of my daughter."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yingying was overjoyed and quickly said, "Ning Xin’er, rest assured, I will take very good care of Yifei. As you can see, I’ve always treated her as if she were my own daughter."

Ning Xin’er looked at Little Yifei playing in the living room and said wistfully, "Mm, I’m just saying. A daughter is a mother’s treasure. Don’t be upset with me."

"Not at all, not at all. If you come back, you are always welcome," Xu Yingying’s hostility towards Ning Xin’er subsided considerably. With Ning Xin’er gone, the tension between them would lessen, and they might even become friends for Yifei’s sake.
