“What are you doing? What are you taking? Are you a thief? You’re stealing from my house!” Yan Yi shouted loudly. She just couldn’t take it anymore! When did the previously weak and useless Yan Xin suddenly become a popular person?

“Go away. This isn’t from your house.” Yan Xin didn’t have the time to argue with her since she had to go back. It was likely that those people would see that she wasn’t cooperating and go attack Liu Qingcang, so she had to go back now.

Sure enough, as she expected, when she arrived at his villa, Qingcang was no where to be seen. He’d apparently disappeared form his bedroom, but his bodyguards in the villa didn’t know about this at all.

“That man purposely left a trail behind so he could lure me over…” she muttered. Thinking of the bank card that Qingcang had given her, she still felt that she had to save him. The only thing she needed to think of was how to do so.

The bodyguards in the villa did not have a leader, so they could only listen to Yan Xin’s instructions. The thing was that they were too weak, so she did not want to use them if necessary.

But after thinking it over a bit, she realized that she probably could use them after all.

An idea slowly surfaced in her mind. Then, she took out Xie Mingyu’s business card and examined it. It seemed that Qingcang was there, at the address listed on the card.

Qingcang had the aura that Yan Xin had specially left on him. Although the black-robed man was very powerful, he could not seal off the aura on Qingcang’s body, so he could only put him in a place that he thought was very safe.

Nodding to herself, Yan Xin turned to face the bodyguards. “Could you guys carry out some tasks for me? Here’s what I’m going to do…”

After assigning the duties to them, she sat down and asked the old maid to cook for her.

“Mistress Yan, the Young Master has been kidnapped. Aren’t you nervous?” she asked with a worried expression. Although he did not often return to the villa, this old maid had watched him grow up; it was natural that she would be really worried about his safety.

“Oh, it’s nothing. Those people wouldn’t dare to touch him,” Yan Xin reassured her. She smiled. “I’m so hungry. May I have something to eat first?” She had just used her aura to search for Qingcang. After finding out that he was fine, there was no problem.

“Where did that woman come from?” Liu Qingcang had originally wanted to go back to his room to sleep. However, when he woke up, he found himself in an unfamiliar room with his hands and feet bound together.

While he’d initially been desperately trying to break free of his bonds, after a while, the desperation faded away when he considered his current situation. He was in a villa, having been tied up and kidnapped without anyone noticing. Apart from that person, no one else could have done it.

He did not know if Yan Xin would come to save him if she knew that he was missing.

After thinking through all of this, he calmed down. If he thought about it, Yan Xin probably would come to his aid because of the bank card he’d given her. That being said, it did not matter if she did not come to save him; these people wouldn’t dare take his life.

However, these people didn’t make him wait for long. Not long after, the black-robed man entered the room. His cold aura made Qingcang shiver involuntarily.

The words he asked were also ice-cold.

“What are you talking about? I don’t know.” Qingcang was also telling the truth; he didn’t know much about Yan Xin to begin with.

“Humph, are you trying to test me?” The black-robed man glared at him, even grabbing his chin.

“Hey man, it’s easy to misunderstand when you say this. I’m not interested in men, just so you know,” Qingcang said with a fake smile.

“You!” The man was so angry that he flung his chin away.

Just then, the doors to the room suddenly slammed open, revealing a man at the entrance.

“What is it?” The black-robed man asked unhappily.

“Young Master Xie was kidnapped.” The man said softly.

In response, the black-robed man scoffed. “Humph, little girl, you actually played this trick with me.” After that, he glared at Qingcang fiercely, then slammed the door and left.

“There’s no use in capturing me.” Xie Mingyu protested. He was tied to a chair in all sorts of ways and spoke to Yan Yi with a genial expression, as if he was not the one who had been kidnapped. “I really so want to cooperate with you. I really can’t find the way to the island with that man alone.”

These words made Yan Xin’s eyes light up. With a smile, she slowly approached Mingyu. “What island are you talking about?” she asked curiously.

At this moment, he hesitated. At first, he’d thought that Yan Xin had also come from the mysterious island because he had heard from the black-robed man that the girl’s aura was very similar to his..
