"A good bodyguard will protect you even if the employer asks them to leave openly. They are bodyguards; protecting you is their duty and their job. Now that they have left like this, they have failed in their duty. You are lucky nothing bad happened. But what if something big happened? What if you were hurt? What if you fell into Ani’s enemies’ hands? How would that end?"
Yan Aohan’s tone was cold and serious. Zhu Yanli had never seen Yan Aohan like this before. She remembered he was always kind to them, but his serious attitude now made her a little afraid.
Zhu Yanyi had been silent. Seeing Zhu Yanli’s bad mood in the rearview mirror, she finally spoke. "Sister, remember that Sister Chen and Sister Qiu were punished because of you. If you hadn’t stubbornly asked them to leave, they wouldn’t have been punished. So, you must reflect on this."
As they grew up, conflicts would arise. Zhu Yanyi knew this. Zhu Yanli would eventually fall in love and marry. But Zhu Yanyi wanted her sister to live a safe life. In her past life, her sister’s fate was too bitter. Now that she had changed her fate, she didn’t want bad things to happen because of her own mistakes.
Zhu Yanli said nothing all the way. After Zhu Zhibin got in the car, he saw Zhu Yanli’s gloomy face and asked curiously, "Second Sister, what’s wrong with Eldest Sister?"
Zhu Yanyi glanced at Zhu Yanli, then said to Zhu Zhibin, "Doumiao, when you go to class, how do you handle Niu Jiu and Peng Ming?"
"They take turns hiding in the dark. I don’t care who is on duty, as long as they rotate daily. As long as no one finds them near me, it’s fine," Zhu Zhibin said calmly. "Since Second Sister became famous, I dare not leave them. I have to be prepared for danger." This was the burden of fame. Zhu Zhibin knew his second sister was capable, so he had to adapt to this protected life.
"Eldest Sister, see? Doumiao understands this. Do you understand?" Zhu Yanyi stopped asking Zhu Zhibin and turned to Zhu Yanli.
Zhu Yanli sighed. "I know. I won’t let Sister Chen and Sister Qiu leave again. But this time, can we not punish them?" Zhu Yanli felt guilty. It was indeed her fault.
Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. "No rules, no standards. We all know this. As bodyguards, they should understand too. If you ask them to leave and they really leave, there are no rules. This is a warning not just to you, but to them too. Not everyone can be a bodyguard."
Zhu Zhibin understood. "Eldest Sister, so you got rid of Sister Chen and Sister Qiu. You are really brave. I admire you." Zhu Zhibin gave Zhu Yanli a thumbs-up.
Zhu Yanli looked at Zhu Zhibin, amused and embarrassed. "Don’t talk about this. I feel ashamed just hearing it." She had thought sending Chen Lu and Qiu Meiyun to rest was kind, but now she realized it was her mistake. Because of her error, she had dragged others into trouble.
