"You guys arenāt planning to go back?"
"Go back? Why would we go back? We came out this time to have as much fun as possible!"
"Oh..." Heather suddenly caught on, "I saw the news too. So Fourth Master completely crushed Gu Tianyu, right? Now that the company isnāt busy anymore, youāre just spending time with your little sweetheart and starting your honeymoon?"
"Mm..." Gu Liancheng looked utterly indifferent, "Thereās really not much going on recently, and since I bumped into you, Qianxun wanted to go out for a walk, so I accompanied her."
"So you two left Second Treasure at home and went out to play on your own?"
"You have no idea..." Qianxun started venting, "Itās not like we left Second Treasure at homeāitās Second Treasure who ditched us at home again! He and Little Treasure just ran off with their mentor to who-knows-where. They come back every time grinning from ear to ear!"
"Pfft..." Heather, who knew a bit of the inside scoop, chuckled. Seeing Qianxun completely in the dark was pretty amusing.
In this big family, Qianxun is probably the only clueless little bunny always kept in the dark.
Those two little darlingsātheyāre going to be something amazing someday.
Once Qianxun started venting, she couldnāt stop, "I feel so pitiful now. Both my kids have super high IQs, and donāt even get me started on LianchengāIāve become the one with the lowest IQ in the house! I get looked down on by my Jiujiu Baby every single day. Itās so frustrating!"
"Donāt worry, at least you have Fourth Master doting on you. Even if our Little Qianxun has a low IQ, Fourth Master still loves you, doesnāt he? That just proves that Fourth Masterās taste is one of a kind." Heather teased her back a little.
Gu Liancheng couldnāt help but laugh along, too.
"What are you talking about? Iām not *that* bad, awkward!" Qianxun was flustered. "Itās just that compared to them, I seem lower! Honestly, my IQ is still above average levels! After all, Iām a top graduate from West Shadow, arenāt I?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Heather rested her chin in her hand, grinning.
"Seriously though, come over tonight and keep me company! Letās talk for twenty bucksā worth!"
"Uh... Let me go back and request some leave first."
"Leave? From that Mr. Nian, huh?" Almost everyone knew she was Mr. Nianās bodyguard.
"Yep, that Mr. Nian..." Speaking of him, Heather frowned, "I donāt know whatās up with him, but he always runs into danger. Last time at the hotel, someone tried to assassinate him, and not long after, someone even tried to kidnap him. No idea who heās pissed off."
"That serious? Isnāt that a bit much?"
Even Gu Liancheng felt something was off. He frowned and said, "Linyang isnāt that chaotic, is it? Someone actually dared to pull off an assassination in a hotel? Who is he, exactly? Have you looked into him properly?"
For an ordinary businessman, it shouldnāt escalate to a point where someone wants them dead.
"Given my current situation, where would I find the time to investigate someoneās background? Iām just trying to make a living. Heās helped me a few times already, so I agreed to protect him for a while."
She didnāt mention that he often gave her the vibe of Li Sinian.
"Need my help?"
"Nah," Heather smiled, "Who he is doesnāt matter anymore. My job is simply to protect him."
"Alright. Iāll respect your decision. But if you need help, you must tell me. Donāt be reckless on your own."
"Yes, sir!" Heather smiled and winked playfully.
As the conversation went on, the topic shifted to where sheās currently staying. Knowing she wouldnāt be able to keep it under wraps forever, she told the truth. Qianxun widened her eyes as she heard it: "How could you..."
