Eleven, wearing her brotherās clothes, hid in the crook of his arm, feeling overwhelming security.
Shang Jingyang protected her all along, until they got into his car. He carefully helped her into the car, then they left that place.
"Right... my brother is driving me away." On the road, Ye Fei, called to inquire.
"I see..." Ye Feiās voice sounded a bit worried.
"Whatās wrong? Iāve already left the school, so thereās no risk. Donāt worry."
"Oh, itās nothing..." Ye Fei switched to a laugh, "Now that weāve graduated, we probably wonāt see each other that often. Even if we run into each other, Yao Ruoshui wouldnāt dare touch you now unless she has a death wish."
With Gu Shang Yeās three families protecting Eleven, the Yao familyās reach was far too weak. How could it provide Yao Ruoshui with the courage to hurt Eleven?
She could only imagine mutually assured destruction, but she was convinced that Yao Ruoshui didnāt have the guts, and Eleven had never done anything that offensive to her, so she had no such motivation.
"In that case, letās wrap this up. Weāll meet at the celebration tonight."
"Youāre going to the party tonight? Jin Xiangbei will be there, and Yao Ruoshui will follow him. Itāll probably be a mess. I think youād better not go."
"Then letās just eat by ourselves. We could ask Song Xiuxia to join us. Even bringing his basketball team would be OK. I wouldnāt mind, as they are all boys. My treat!"
The ones who wanted to harm her were all girls. Boys were actually easier to get along with and wouldnāt care about her relationship with Jin Xiangbei.
"...Alright! Iāll contact them and get back to you."
"Okay, bye."
Shang Jingyang roughly understood the situation, and asked, "Are you going out for dinner tonight? Would you mind if one more person came along?"
"Brother, youāre coming too?" Eleven tried to act natural, making their relationship appear harmonious.
"What? Youāre not welcoming me?"
"No." Eleven smiled.
Just then, Gu Liancheng called.
In front of Shang Jingyang, she didnāt act affectionately, fearing heād suspect something. She picked up the call and said directly, "Whatās going on? If youāre busy, donāt call me."
Gu Liancheng, unaware of who was with her, sounded a bit anxious. "Where are you right now?"
Eleven guessed that he probably knew about the situation at the school and called to confirm her safety.
Eleven looked out the window for a moment and confirmed, "Iām on Jinyang Road, on the way to the film city."
"Are you with Ye Fei?"
Her good friend was Ye Fei who had a car, so he guessed that she should be the one driving her to the film city.
Eleven chose to be honest, "No, Feiāer is still at school. My brother is driving me."
"..." He was silent for a moment on the other end of the line, "Shang Jingyang?"
"Yes."
"Have him drive you to my company," Gu Lianchengās voice didnāt sound stationary, "Iām in the parking lot."
"Itās okay, no need to worry. My brother is driving me to the film city."
"Is that Liancheng?" Shang Jingyang took Elevenās phone and said to the person on the other end of the line, "Donāt worry, Eleven is with me. Iāll make sure she gets to her destination safely, without a hair missing. If even a hair is gone, Iāll apologize to you."
"Jinyang Road isnāt far from my company. Bring her to the entrance of my company. Iāll take her from there."
"What are you talking about? I know youāre Elevenās ex-husband, and itās understandable that youāre still concerned about her. But after all, Iām also her brother. Itās not a big deal for me to drive her, right?"
