As Governor Yan’s most trusted subordinate, Adjutant Li’s efficiency was no joke.
When Chu Jiao came home from school the next day, she saw a curious group of people going in and out of the mansion next door as though it had suddenly changed owners overnight.
On the next day she had gotten off from school, Chu Jiao was just about to leave on her bicycle when she spotted a familiar car.
“….Brother Yan?” The car windows were tinted, so Chu Jiao was slightly unsure of her surmise. However, a person wearing a captain’s military uniform was standing pencil-straight beside the car. Chu Jiao immediately recalled that he was one of Yan Zhan’s people.
“I was just along the way, why don’t I send you home.” The car window rolled down, finally revealing Governor Yan’s handsome face.
“But I brought my bicycle…” After Father Chu had passed away, all the servants also started taking off.

Naturally, the full-time driver had also left, so even though she had a fully-functional car in her backyard, Chu Jiao simply went through the storeroom and took out a heavy-duty bicycle, treating it as her new form of transportation since she didn’t know how to drive.
Adjutant Li obediently stood by the car feeling his back turn numb, and without even needing to turn his head around, he already knew that his family’s Governor was sending daggers at the back of his head.
He immediately put on a currying smile and seized the bicycle from Chu Jiao’s grasps, “Miss Chu, don’t worry. I’ll definitely send your bicycle home without any damage! Your body is far too precious and delicate. It’s better for you to enjoy the safety of riding a car.”
She thought that the scene was a bit amusing. With their respective identities and statuses, why did it feel like they had gotten it mixed up?
Yan Zhan suddenly turned his head, “How’s your injury doing?”
