Ai Liang slowly closed her eyes.

When he opened his eyes, his face had regained its previous coldness.

"I'll tell you one last time: the only reason I know the messenger is because he used to deliver books to me when he was a courier."

Then I hired him for a while, just as my full-time deliveryman.

Ai Liang wasn't going to waste any more time arguing with this idiot.

If I don't spell it out directly, he probably still won't understand.

Euphemisms and social niceties don't apply to Jin Ping'an's straightforward nature.

"Let me put it this way: if you keep having me contact the messenger, people will think that he and I have some kind of secret relationship."

The messenger's job involves dealing with the black market.

You don't care whether I can get in touch with you or not, you just keep telling me to tell the messenger. Do you know that this will cause me a lot of trouble?

Putting aside everything else, if the messenger commits any crime in the future, the police will find me and ask me to contact him, and I might even be put on the suspect list.

Just because I was able to contact the messenger once by chance doesn't mean I'll be able to contact him again in the future.

I hope you'll think carefully about what kind of trouble this will cause others before you take action.

Ai Liang wants to make a change and doesn't mind helping Jin Ping'an.

But this doesn't mean he'll make a big fuss like Jin Ping'an.

Ai Liang has many secrets.

If any of these things are exposed, he will have to say goodbye to his friends and give up his identity as Ai Liang.

Then, with a new identity, in another unfamiliar city, he began a lonely new life.

Some people might not care, but for Ai Liang, it's very important.

If he completely severs his human ties, will he become a second Thousand-Faced Man?
Ai Liang's words left Jin Ping'an speechless.

His aloof expression and icy gaze gave him a strong sense of oppression.

Ai Liang had said something similar before.

A sense of shame and a faint feeling of helplessness rose in Jin Ping'an's heart.

Where does the helplessness lie?
Even if he didn't let Ai Liang assist him in investigating the case, just helping her pass on a message would cause her a lot of trouble.

For the first time, Jin Ping'an had a clear understanding of the complexity of his identity.

In the past, the only person of Jin Ping'an's age who had ever been with him was Cheng Lejia.

Cheng Lejia, however, comes from a wealthy and powerful family and is not afraid of the trouble he might bring.

But Ai Liang is different; he's from out of town.

Ever since I met Ai Liang, she has acted far too mature.

Jin Ping'an has matured to the point that he has always relied on Ai Liang as an elder, like Tian Hao.

However, he subconsciously overlooked the fact that Ai Liang was the same age as him, or even a little younger.

Awakened by Ai Liang's words, he ultimately didn't dare to speak again.

He simply watched Ai Liang leave alone with a complicated expression.

Having gotten rid of Jin Ping'an, that troublesome guy, Ai Liang regained her tranquility.

The long-dormant intense emotions began to slowly dissipate.

After all, negative emotions are more likely to affect a person's mood than positive emotions, no matter when.

As Ai Liang was walking, someone suddenly tapped her on the shoulder.

"Oh, what brings you out for dinner today?"

Ai Liang turned around; he knew practically no one in Qianhua City.

Even without hearing a sound, you know who's behind you.

"He was pulled out by someone."

"Hey, it seems you and Jin Ping'an have a pretty good relationship."

Ye Qing said with a smile, "Well, after all, we went through a kidnapping together and shared life and death, right?"

Ai Liang, with a sour face, said, "Yeah, we're very close, practically mortal enemies."

"Pfft, what kind of adjective is that? Is 'unforgivable' used to describe a good relationship?"

Ye Qing covered her mouth and laughed.

“Even if his speaking skills are only a quarter as good as yours, I wouldn’t be so annoyed with him.”

Ai Liang couldn't understand it, since they were both orphans.

This guy just says whatever comes to mind without thinking.

Why is Ye Qing so eloquent while Jin Ping'an is so tongue-tied?
Thinking about it carefully, it turns out that he was surrounded by people who indulged him, and he hadn't experienced enough harsh realities from society.

Ye Qing leaned forward and laughed, hiding her hands behind her back, and said with a sly smile, "Hehe, can I take that as you praising me indirectly?"

Ai Liang took a half step back to create some distance between herself and Ye Qing: "I was just telling the truth."

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Ye Qing's smile deepened.

"...Xiao Qing, your milk tea."

Yi Wenna appeared beside the two of them at some point, holding two cups of milk tea in her hands.

"Thanks."

Ye Qing smiled and took the milk tea, taking a big gulp.

The milk tea comes in a small cup, and with one sip, almost half of it is gone.

Ai Liang glanced at Yi Wenna, who was like a follower, and the only response he got was a fierce look.

However, Ivy's angry glare was like that of an angry hamster, utterly intimidating.

Not only will it not make people feel uncomfortable, it will actually make them want to laugh.

It always gives you the feeling that you want to grab her by the collar and lift her up.

Ever since Ye Qing took Ai Liang's hand and walked out of the classroom together.

In front of Ai Liang, Yi Wenna completely lost her literary girl demeanor.

She completely sees him as her rival in love.

He was extremely aggressive.

If I had to describe it, it's like going from a Pomeranian to a Chihuahua?

In any case, Ai Liang ignored all of her hostility.

This disregard was seen as utter contempt by Yi Wenna, which drove her even more insane.

"Alright, alright, let's hurry back to the classroom. I bet everyone else has already started studying. Shana, you need to work harder on your grades."

Ye Qing noticed Yi Wenna's hostility towards Ai Liang.

She subtly positioned herself between the two, blocking Yi Wenna's view.

Ai Liang agreed to help Ye Qing dispel Yi Wenna's wicked thoughts.

However, if this process causes conflict between Yi Wenna and Ai Liang, then things won't be fun.

This is tantamount to giving Ai Liang a mortal enemy for no reason.

Even if Ai Liang herself didn't care about Yi Wenna's opinion, Ye Qing would still feel bad.

It's a favor if someone is willing to be your shield; don't take it all for granted.

It doesn't mean that you can treat someone like a lapdog, use them and then throw them aside without caring about them at all.

With Ye Qing changing the subject, Yi Wenna shifted her gaze away from Ai Liang.

"Don't worry, I spent most of the summer before school started taking extra classes, so I definitely won't be at the bottom of the class!"

Yi Wenna patted her chest, which was as thin as a fried egg, and made a solemn promise.

Ye Qing couldn't help but complain, "With Jin Ping'an in the class, even if you hand in two blank papers, you still can't take the last place..."

Jin Ping'an is, after all, a public figure. The fact that a minor is employed as an advisor to the criminal investigation team is bound to generate a lot of buzz.

There were numerous reports about him in the past two years.

So it's no secret in Qianhua that his grades are terrible.
