Ye Taoyao held the phone and was stunned. Jiang Zhen came over with a casserole and looked at her with concern, "What's wrong?"

Ye Taoyao's eyes flashed and she shook her phone.

Jiang Zhen put down the casserole and asked casually, "Who called it? Uncle Ye or He Xuening?"

Recently, these two people have called her the most frequently.

Ye Taoyao shook his head and said with a strange expression, "I met someone when I was in Country Y. In fact, it is not a question of knowing each other. By chance, I saved his life. In order to thank me, he said that he could unconditionally agree to do something for me in the future..."

Jiang Zhen heard something sensitively and asked, "What does he do?"

"I haven't asked him, but I guess he should be a legendary professional errand runner." Ye Taoyao said carefully, "I have asked him for a while over the years. It was the last time Meng Lingli's affairs. However, it was not a favor, but a solution with money. He was very straightforward in his work, not asking questions, and not talking about personal matters. But just now, he actually called me on his own initiative."

"Take the initiative?" Jiang Zhen frowned slightly, "What about the purpose?"

Ye Taoyao said, "You don't believe it after you tell me. He said he would just chat and ask me if I needed his help recently. I said no, and he died."

"Professional errand runners won't do this." Jiang Zhen took her cell phone, looked at the number, and his expression became solemn, "What's his name? What does it look like?"

"He was wearing a mask on his face. I don't know what he looked like. Is his name? It's also a code name, called Ye Xiao." Ye Taoyao recalled the only meeting between the two. "However, I feel that he shouldn't be very old. Although his voice was very slutty, his body belonged to a young man..."

When Jiang Zhen heard this, he became jealous. "How did Yaoyao judge the body of a young man?"

Ye Taoyao said angrily and amusedly, "I am a doctor, I can judge it based on the skin and muscles of my body. He injured his arm at that time, so I only looked at his arm."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhen's sour smell dissipated a little, and he explained seriously, "It's okay to see other places. In the eyes of doctors, there is no difference between men and women. I understand. As a doctor's family, I fully support your work. I will never care about it if I check the patient's body or something."

Ye Taoyao glanced at him speechlessly. There was no silver here, so he was too lazy to argue with him. "Okay, let's have a meal, the food should be cold."

"Okay, I'll talk while eating." Jiang Zhen seemed very interested in this night owl. When eating, he kept asking about how tall he grew, what kind of accent he spoke, whether his skin was black or white, whether there were any special marks, etc., etc.

Ye Taoyao responded patiently for the sake of the fish casserole, until he had to ask if there was any fragrance on his body overnight. She couldn't bear it anymore, "Are you so curious about him?"

If the other party was a woman, she would have to doubt whether he fell in love with her.

Jiang Zhen admitted it very simply, "I'm curious."

"It makes no sense." Ye Taoyao was puzzled.

Jiang Zhen pondered, "It makes no sense, but I just want to know more about him. In fact, I have heard of the name Ye Xiao."

"Hmm?" It was Ye Taoyao's turn to be curious, "Is he really an errand runner?"

"No, he is the boss of the gang in the MT area. He has only become famous in recent years. No one knows his detailed details. However, people there respect him and regard him as king."

"It turns out that I'm a gang member, but what is the MT area you mentioned? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"It is a three-no matter zone. It can be said that it is the darkest place in the world. People who make trouble will run there, mixed with fish and dragons. Living there is very dangerous, and human life is the least valuable."

"Then according to what you said, Ye Xiao is very powerful?" How can one be convinced if he can become a boss in such a place, a king, without any ability?

Jiang Zhen nodded, "It's really amazing." After saying that, the topic changed, "How come such a powerful person suddenly appeared in Country Y and happened to be saved by you?"

Ye Taoyao was stunned, "What do you doubt? We are not talking about the same person? Or do you think he was approaching me on purpose? This is impossible. His situation was really dangerous at that time, and it was definitely not a show. Although he only injured his arm, he used some kind of drug on his knife, which could numb the nerves and cause physical weakness. If I hadn't helped him cover it up and deceived those who pursued him, no matter how powerful he was, when the drug attacked, he would have no power to tie the chicken and could only wait for the chopping. It was a coincidence that I was there at that time."

"Why did you think about doing such a dangerous thing?"

"I saw that he had black hair, so his mind became hot..." I didn't feel scared at the time, but later I realized how brave he was. I was also worried for a while. Before I could trouble, I felt at ease.

"It's not accurate in the future." Jiang Zhen solemnly reminded her in a rare tone, "Neither side is a good person. If you get involved, you will only implicate yourself."

Ye Taoyao said "hmm" and asked again, "Do you still think he is approaching me with a purpose?"

Jiang Zhen pondered, "Maybe I'm thinking too much, but I always feel that he appears in Country Y and is rescued by you. It's a coincidence that it can't be said. Yaoyao, next time he calls again, you can tell me."

"Can."

In the next few days, Ye Taoyao was waiting for her phone to ring, but she never waited for Ye Xiao's call. Instead, she received Lu Manman's invitation to attend her and Feng Shaoqing's engagement banquet.

She found a reason to refuse.

At the engagement banquet that day, everyone from the Lu family must have gone there. Lu Xiwen would also take her second sister. Her appearance again would make many people feel embarrassed. Moreover, with her current relationship with Lu Manman, there is no need to join in the fun. Think about it, the friendship is really fragile. It took a man only a few months to destroy it in twenty years.

...

The engagement banquet between Feng Shaoqing and Lu Manman was not promoted with great fanfare, but it was held very grandly. Many people went there, including many high-ranking and powerful people. Du Sinian also went there, as well as Jiang Yunting and Jin Yuanrong.

Ye Taoyao was not surprised when the Jiang family went. Although the two families were not in harmony, there was competition in private. On the surface, the relationship between the two families was still very close. Jiang Yunting and Feng Jing were both people in power in the army and had a lot of interactions. For the sake of the stability of the army, Feng Shaoqing invited him to get engaged, but he was not easy to refuse.

He and Dusnian were arranged on the same table, but they were still next to each other. The relationship between the two families was closer, so no one thought something was wrong, but Jiang Yunting knew that this was intentional.
