Chapter 54 Frank confession
While eating, Yang Nianqing kept thinking about whether the person Zhao Wen wouldn't give up on, as mentioned in Qin Zixin's words, was Wang Xiaolan. Probably so. Someone as selfish and ruthless as her wouldn't easily let Wang Xiaolan go. She should remind her.

Upon suddenly seeing something, Yang Nianqing immediately pulled her hat down and lowered her head, almost burying it in the bowl.

What a coincidence!

Xu Anyu pulled Gu Yuanhong into the store, and Gu Yuanhong was dragged along unwillingly.

I feel so tired. I've been tormented by my older brother for so many days. I finally left, but Xu Anyu dragged me out again.

"Why are you so energetic? You just finished training with your older brother, aren't you tired?" Gu Yuanhong asked helplessly.

Xu Anyu patted his shoulder, "It's only because Brother Lin left that we had to go out and have fun. I did my research, this place has amazing breakfast."

Gu Yuanhong was utterly dejected. "If your older brother finds out you went out to play again after he left, you'll get a scolding again."

Thinking of his terrifying older cousin, Xu Anyu chuckled dryly, "My cousin is just too rigid. Going on a mission doesn't affect our trip. Anyway, we haven't found the target yet. There's nothing we can do about it."

Gu Yuanhong shook his head. If his older brother found out about this, he would definitely get a lecture.

Xu Anyu ordered her food and sat restlessly in her chair, waiting.

Seeing that the table was being shaken by his leg-shaking, Gu Yuanhong gave him a light tap on the shoulder. "Sit properly!"

"Oh." Xu Anyu stopped shaking her leg. "It's been almost half a month, and I still haven't found a target. What should I do now? School is about to start, am I going to keep taking leave?"

Gu Yuanhong pondered for a moment and said, "You should go back when school starts. After all, this target is too dangerous. He has already taken several lives. Fortunately, the person you met last time only suffered a broken bone, otherwise I wouldn't know how to explain it to your aunt."

“My attack power is stronger, so it’s better if I’m here. That person has a lot of tricks up his sleeve,” Xu Anyu said, frowning.

Gu Yuanhong sighed and said, "That man this time was too good at escaping. Apart from knowing that he had a scar under his eye, we had no information at all. We were really at a disadvantage."

Xu Anyu nodded, "Yes."

There's a scar under his eye! In an instant, Yang Nianqing thought of the evil cultivator he had met at the club. That blood-red aura, yet no vengeful ghosts haunting him. That person had beaten the people he killed to the point of their souls being scattered. That person was very dangerous.

"He's severed the cycle of reincarnation. That man is ruthless. Can they handle him?" Yang Nianqing shook her head, suppressing the thought. It wasn't her business. She packed her things, avoided the two men, and walked out of the store. She glanced back at them, then resolutely turned away.

Don't worry about it! It's none of your business! Just get going!
Yang Nianqing told herself this, and she quickened her pace, only slowing down after a while. In a daze, Yang Nianqing hailed a taxi to Fan Ruichen's hotel.

Yang Nianqing called Fan Ruichen to tell him that she was in the lobby of his hotel. When Fan Ruichen came downstairs, he saw Yang Nianqing sitting quietly on the sofa in the lobby. Fan Ruichen walked over and sat down next to her. He patted her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yang Nianqing paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Fan Ruichen smoothed her hair and pinched her cheek. "You're unhappy. Is something on your mind?"

Yang Nianqing's smile faded, and after a long pause, she nodded. Fan Ruichen took her hand and said, "Let's go to the room to talk."

Once inside the room, Fan Ruichen pulled Yang Nianqing down to sit and hugged her. "Tell me what happened."

"I severed ties with the Yang family and schemed against them before I left..." Yang Nianqing told Fan Ruichen everything, except for the fact that she was reborn, which was too unbelievable.

“The Xu family looks down on me, but I’m still worried about those two people. Am I being too much of a saint?” Yang Nianqing said, feeling a little depressed.

Fan Ruichen chuckled and ruffled her hair. "Do whatever you want. My Qingqing isn't a saint, she's just kind. You would have saved a stranger too, wouldn't you? Don't worry about their identities. You just don't want to acknowledge them. There's no need to hide from them. I'll always be by your side."

These words were like a wake-up call. Yang Nianqing nodded with a sigh of relief. That's right. If she didn't want to acknowledge them, then so be it. To act so timidly would be a disservice to her own rebirth and to the teachings of her ancestor Gu Lang. If Gu Lang knew that she was acting so timidly, she would be scolded again.

Thinking of this, Yang Nianqing took out the Phoenix Blood Jade from her neck and removed the illusion on it. "This is the Phoenix Blood Jade passed down through generations of the Gu family. It's also like a key. I'll take you to see my ancestor someday."

Startled by Yang Nianqing's actions, she revealed her hand so easily. This silly girl, isn't she afraid that she is a bad person? No wonder she was deceived by the Yang family before. She is too easily bullied. I have to protect her better in the future. Fan Ruichen chuckled and said, "Silly girl."

Understanding the implication in Fan Ruichen's words, Yang Nianqing laughed and said, "Where would I be stupid? Would you betray me? Let me tell you, if you betray me, my ancestors will hunt you down."

"Haha, okay," Fan Ruichen replied.

Yang Nianqing pinched his ticklish spot, "I'm not joking!"

Fan Ruichen felt that Yang Nianqing's threatening voice was childish, like a cat deliberately showing its claws.

"Don't laugh!"

"OK."
