Qin Yiyi was silent for a moment, then she nodded with a serious expression. “Remember not to turn off your phone.”

Inexplicably, she felt that she might really need this person in the middle of the night!

This thought flashed through her mind. It made Qin Yiyi frown slightly. Ordinary people would think that this was just a normal thought crossing their minds.

However, when it came to Qin Yiyi, there were other explanations such as fate, karma…

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Shang Jiuying again. He still looked the same. If everything went as expected, it would only take a year or two at most to completely heal.

Even if she had given him a lot of life-prolonging pills previously.

Once again, it proved that her current situation was a little helpless against Shang Jiuying’s condition!

But it didn’t matter. She would be able to search for the other few medicinal herbs immediately. When the time came, the medicinal effects of the extracted herbs would be even better.

She waved her hand at Shang Jiuying. “Goodbye, Big Brother Shang.”

Shang Jiuying pursed his lips. He was lost in thought when he heard her call him ‘Big Brother’.

Immediately after, he nodded at Qin Yiyi and turned around to leave.

His slender and tall back directly disappeared into the elevator.

Qin Yiyi closed the door and flopped down on the sofa. She rolled from one side of the sofa to the other.

What should she do if her mood was inexplicably good?

She went to bed at around ten o’clock.

Just as she laid down, her phone screen flashed, and her WeChat received a new message.

Shang Jiuying: Sleep early.

Qin Yiyi thought for a moment and replied, “Don’t be too late.”.

Previously, she thought that since she didn’t see Ding Yi hanging around the door, something must have happened.

Shang Jiuying lowered his head and looked at his phone. His eyes moved back and forth between these words. In the end, he pursed his lips and replied, “Yes.”.

He raised his head and looked at the solemn-looking A-1 not far away. “Are those people still causing a ruckus?”

“They haven’t admitted it all this time. They insist that they are innocent…”

A-1 also had a headache. Those people were the elders of the Shang Clan, how could they act so shamelessly like a shrew?

He couldn’t really do anything to them unless his master gave the order…

Just as he was pondering, Shang Jiuying’s indifferent voice rang in his ears. “Since you’ve given them a chance and don’t want it, then follow the rules.”

“Pry open their mouths and tell them that I’ll still leave a bloodline for them. But I don’t have that much patience…”

A-1’s heart skipped a beat. He instantly sensed a killing intent from Shang Jiuying’s words!

Could it be that his master had finally thought it through and was willing to take care of those old things?

He could do anything.

Taking advantage of his authority to take first place!

If it was up to Ding Yi, those old things from the Shang Family should at least be properly taken care of!

At the side, Jia Yi’s blood boiled as he waited for Shang Jiuying to continue giving his orders.

In the end, when he looked up, he saw that Shang Jiuying had actually turned around and left.

He was stunned for a moment before hurriedly raising his feet to catch up. “Master, are you going out? I’ll go and get the car right away…”

“Do you know what am I going out for?”

Hearing Shang Jiuying’s words, Jia Yi gasped in his heart.

How would he know what his own master was going out for?

Wasn’t he watching him suddenly walk out of the study room? If he wasn’t going out, could it be that he was thinking of taking a stroll?

As he muttered in his heart, Jia Yi did not dare to show even a hint of his face.

Shang Jiuying had already reached out to open the door of the study room and turned around to look at Jia Yi who had caught up with him.

“There’s no need to follow me. It’s getting late. Go back and rest.”

These words almost made Jia Yi jump up. “Master, if I did something wrong, you can tell me directly. You can punish me however you want. As long as you leave me with a breath of life, I’ll be fine if I can follow you.”

However, he absolutely could not abandon him.

Shang Jiuying gave him a strange glance. Didn’t he just ask him to rest?

Forget it, these few people were probably really tired lately. Apart from Ding Yi, even Jia Yi was starting to lose his patience…

With this doubt, Shang Jiuying felt that Qin Yiyi’s reminder was right. He had to sleep early and have a good rest!

“I’ll go rest. You guys go to bed early too.”

After saying this, Shang Jiuying lifted his feet and went to his bedroom on the third floor.

The remaining people looked at each other, their faces full of agitation.

Could it be that their master really wanted to replace all of them?

Shang Jiuying did not know that his casual words had made his few capable assistants nervous for a whole night.

The next morning, a few people with dark circles under their eyes appeared in front of him.

It made Shang Jiuying slightly stunned.

“What happened to you guys? Did something happen after I went to bed last night?”

“Master, if we have done something wrong, you can punish us.”

The one who was pushed out as the representative was A-1.

It could not be helped. It was his bad luck that he lost ten consecutive games of rock-paper-scissors last night!

At this moment, A-1 stood in front of Shang Jiuying with his head lowered.

His voice was muffled as he spoke, “We have followed Master for so many years and have never thought of leaving him. Master, if you don’t believe us, we can swear…”

“When did I say that I want you to leave?”

Shang Jiuying quietly looked at the three people in front of him. His voice was calm as he said, “Or, do you want to leave on your own and find another job?”

Jia Yi stood there and tried his best to recall Shang Jiuying’s words from last night, as well as the conversation between the two of them.

In the end, his face turned extremely ugly. From the beginning to the end, his master never said anything about their mistakes, let alone telling them to leave.

It was all his own imagination!

In an instant, he did not dare to look at the two brothers behind him. Even more so, he did not dare to look at Shang Jiuying.

Shang Jiuying understood what they were thinking. They had been orphans since they were young and had been thrown to a deserted island by the Shang Family for training and survival.

When they were young, they had been assigned to the various direct descendants of the Shang Family.

Jia Yi and the others had started following him since they were thirteen years old. After so many years, if he really did not want them to follow him anymore…

They would probably be even more at a loss than if they die!

He raised his hand and patted the shoulders of the few of them. His voice was low as he said, “As long as you want, you will always be with the Shang Family. I will always have a place for you!”

This was his promise to them!

Weekend. 7 am.

Qin Yiyi ran a few laps around the neighborhood. She was drenched in sweat as she ran back.

When she reached downstairs, she saw someone not far away. She raised her eyebrows and walked over slowly.

She brushed past her.

Mrs. Qin was so angry that her face turned pale. This wretched girl actually pretended not to see her!

How did she look like a daughter at all?

Was she blaming herself for not liking her and only liking Jiatong? Qin Jiatong was so obedient, cute, understanding, and intelligent.

Then, she would know how to serve her tea and pour water to make her happy.

But what about the one in front of her?

She stood there like a block of wood. From afar, it didn’t look like she had given birth to her. It clearly looked like she was her enemy!

In the next moment, Mrs. Qin dismissed this thought.

Mr. Qin had always been there when she gave birth. How could he let her bring back a child that wasn’t theirs?

She was afraid that this child was here to collect debts from them.

Feeling tired, Mrs. Qin rubbed the space between her brows. She looked at Qin Yiyi.

“Your father asked me to bring you back for dinner.”

Qin Yiyi glanced at her and said, “Oh.”

Then, he walked past her and toward the stairs not far away.

“Stand there…”

Before Mrs. Qin could finish her sentence, Qin Yiyi suddenly turned around.

Her eyes pierced into her heart like ice blades..
