Chu Liyuan held the already sleeping Jian Dan in his arms, finding every minute and every second of companionship with Jian Jian to be blissful.

A dark shadow flickered across the balcony~

Gently, Chu Liyuan laid Jian Dan onto the bed and, treading lightly, left the bedroom for the study.

When Chu Liyuan entered the study, the light was off, but thanks to the moonlight, he could clearly see a stunningly beautiful man standing there, like a vampire in the night!

“You’re still the same, enjoying dwelling in the darkness,” Chu Liyuan said slowly as he walked into the study.

“Gotten used to it!” Mei’s red lips parted slightly, appearing especially enchanting under the moonlight.

The two stood by the window, gazing at the moon above. “Ying, why didn’t you save her at the moment Jian Jian was taken?” Chu Liyuan knew that it would have taken Ying only minutes to rescue Jian Jian from those people’s hands.

The only reason was that he hadn’t wanted to intervene at that time.

“Only this way could we find the person behind all this!” Ying spoke coldly, with no hint of emotion in his tone.

The Xuan Organization had always dealt with matters by eradicating the root of the problem, a method once taught to them by Chu Liyuan himself.

“Jian Jian is different!” Chu Liyuan’s expression softened considerably.

“Is it because she belongs to you?” Ying’s voice remained emotionless.

“She’s mine, but more importantly, she’s the one I love. Her safety is the most crucial thing to me!”

“She will become your Achilles’ heel!”

Ying was the most formidable member of the Xuan Organization and had been personally mentored by Chu Liyuan. He’d also been by Chu Liyuan’s side for the longest time and understood his character very well.

But during this encounter, Ying had realized that Chu Liyuan had changed; the heart that used to be as hard as steel had softened, and it was Jian Dan who had softened it!

A smile played upon Chu Liyuan’s lips. “Ying, if you ever meet that indispensable person in life, you’d be glad to have her become your Achilles’ heel!”

“I don’t need one!”

“I used to think the same, but it was only because she hadn’t appeared yet! Ying, I believe you will meet the person who warms you, who takes you out of the cold and darkness,” Chu Liyuan said as he raised his hand to turn on the light in the room.

Ying was momentarily uncomfortable with the sudden brightness. “I still prefer the darkness!”

“Until your person appears, nothing I say will penetrate. But when she does, you will naturally know whether you prefer the cold darkness or the warm sunlight!”

“Chu Li, he’s returned, hasn’t he?” Ying asked abruptly.

“At first, I was just speculating, but after my trip to Country Z, I can now be completely certain—he has indeed returned!”

When Ying and Chu Liyuan talked about ‘him’, their eyes held a strange light.

“Having lain dormant for so long, his return will surely spark a battle of the century!”

“I have the same premonition,” Chu Liyuan replied, his eyes betraying a hint of significance as he looked toward the bright moon in the sky.

Jian Jian~ Ying left things unsaid.

But when Chu Liyuan heard Ying mention Jian Jian’s name, he understood what Ying meant.

“I know! I will never allow Jian Jian to be harmed! Ying~ if I’m not around, you must protect her for me!” It was the first time Chu Liyuan had made such a request to Ying.

“When have I ever failed in my missions?” Although Ying’s tone remained cold, the look he gave Chu Liyuan warmed slightly.

He would protect Jian Dan for this man!
