You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 374 Your Life Is Tied Up With Mine Now

The moment Shen Yiyan received the photos, he immediately called Liu Yan.

“What’s all this about?” the man demanded.

“Shouldn’t you know better than me? Master Shen, if you don’t like me, tell me to get lost to my face. I’ll be sure to put a great distance between us and stay out of your sight,” Liu Yan remarked sarcastically. “You can send all the men you want to capture me, but why must you harm my friends?”

“I’ll give you an explanation,” Shen Yiyan asserted, then immediately hung up.

Wu Nian looked at Liu Yan and observed, “Shen Yiyan may not have ordered this. Perhaps it was an underhand move by one of his subordinates.”

Liu Yan’s eyes reddened with tears as she looked at Wu Nian. “He’s the boss of that organization, yet one of his subordinates wants to kill me? Don’t dogs take after their owners? Even if it wasn’t Shen Yiyan himself who commanded it, he must have allowed it nonetheless. He’s A City’s commander-in-chief! Who would dare defy him?”

“Yan, nothing is that simple,” Wu Nian sighed, exhaling deeply.

“I want to leave,” Liu Yan’s eyes were clouded with tears. She strode ahead without another word, not wanting to reveal too much in the presence of Aaron.

Wu Nian instantly understood what her friend meant.

For the past two years, Liu Yan had suffered at Shen Yiyan’s side. She hadn’t even wanted to be with him in the first place, and this incident only strengthened Liu Yan’s resolve to leave him.

Wu Nian fully supported her decision. Assassinations like this, once set in motion, could hardly be halted. It was too dangerous for an innocent maiden like Yan to remain by Shen Yiyan’s side.

Aaron placed Wu Nian gingerly on the sofa, chiding, “It’ll be morning when you disembark. I have a few friends in Xenhall who I’ve called to pick you up and send you home. I won’t be able to rest at the thought of you two girls all alone.”

Wu Nian shook her head. “Please don’t trouble your friends. I’ve already arranged for someone to pick us up. We’ll be safe! Don’t worry about us.”

“It’s no trouble at all. It’s my duty. You’re my girlfriend! Give me a chance to take care of you,” Aaron said tenderly.
