Zhu Yanyi followed Yan Aohan back to the apartment in the residential complex. As soon as they entered and she closed the door, Yan Aohan suddenly turned and pulled Zhu Yanyi into a tight hug. "Thank goodness you are safe."
Those five words made Zhu Yanyi’s heart skip a beat. Her hands hesitated for a moment, then she wrapped her arms around her broad waist. She gently patted her back and looked up at her. "I am fine. You forgot, you taught me how to shoot. Grandpa Chun taught me martial arts. My internal energy has reached the late stage of dark force. There are very few people who can match me."
"Mn." Yan Aohan hummed softly. she held her for a long while before finally letting go. "Even though what you say is true, I still worry."
Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. Seeing her release her, she took her hand and led her to the side, urging her to sit down. She boiled a pot of water and brewed a pot of flower tea. She poured a cup for Yan Aohan and one for herself. "Look, I am perfectly fine. I can boil water and make tea. This proves I am unharmed, inside and out. Trust me. Those four attackers today were not as strong as the two groups in Shanghai."
Yan Aohan sighed, picked up the flower tea, and took a sip. He spoke slowly. "This is the first time you have made tea specifically for me. Before, I always drank tea made by others."
Zhu Yanyi glanced at Yan Aohan. She sounded jealous just from drinking tea. She shook her head helplessly. "By the way, how did you know something was wrong here?"
"The overall commander of your military training, my second brother, was assassinated. He was shot, so Old Doctor Yao had to operate on him," Yan Aohan explained slowly.
Zhu Yanyi was slightly stunned. "Is she okay? Is she out of danger?"
"No, he is fine," Yan Aohan answered. "I thought it over. Nothing important was happening around my second brother recently. No major projects were launching. The assassin was a spy within his circle, a staff officer. My brother knew this man was suspicious and had been guarding against him. Given this officer’s cautious nature, he would never act rashly. The fact that he did now proves this assassination had a specific purpose. But what was it?"
Yan Aohan took another sip of tea. "We couldn’t figure out the motive. Then, when my brother said he was injured and could not serve as commander temporarily, it suddenly struck me. Your actions this morning must have aroused their interest. They likely wanted to kill you for a long time but couldn’t find an opportunity. Now that my brother is injured, things here will be chaotic. Usually, chaos creates opportunities."
"They just wanted to create chaos to assassinate a major general?" Zhu Yanyi looked at Yan Aohan. "How stupid. If it were me, I would take the position of overall commander. During the remaining seven or eight days of training, I would surely find a chance to strike." She said casually.
Yan Aohan was stunned. She stared at Zhu Yanyi for a long time, making her heart race with panic. "What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
"You just said if it were you, you would take the position of overall commander?" Yan Aohan slapped her own head. "Indeed, when it comes to you, I lose my mind. I didn’t even think of that." She walked to the side and made a phone call. After speaking for a while, she hung up and smiled at Zhu Yanyi. "Ani, please guide me well for the next seven or eight days."
