The manipulator behind the scenes had actually sent these people to target her, and if one day she uncovered the truth, she definitely wouldn't let him have good days ahead.
"Yesterday when I went downstairs to buy groceries, I noticed a few sneaky people seemed to be following me. Did you notice anything suspicious when you came just now?"
Auntie Li thought for a moment, a look of nervousness suddenly appearing in her eyes.
Could it be that those people have been lurking here all along, waiting for Miss Yin to show up?
"This... I didn't pay attention."
After her arrival in the neighborhood, she had been looking for Auntie Li's apartment number and had let her guard down.
She had never imagined that those people would track her here.
"You must be more careful when you leave later."
"Okay."
Suddenly, Auntie Li changed the subject.
"Miss Yin, did you really sign a three-month agreement with that Mr. Qin?"
She had received a call from Yin Xi early in the morning, and was quite surprised to learn of her decision.
Yin Xi gave a bitter smile and replied slowly, "Yes. For now, this is the only way to address the Yin Family's urgent crisis.
Moreover, I am repaying him for saving me."
Of course, she had another purpose, but that was not something she could discuss with Auntie Li.
"All right. I support Miss Yin's decision. He saved you and is even willing to help pay off the Yin Family's debts. You indeed should repay him."
At that moment, Yin Xi's cell phone rang with an incoming call, and "Mr. Qin" was displayed on the screen.
After signing the agreement with him last night, Yin Xi had labeled his mobile number with those three characters.
"Hello?"
"Did you get the box?" The low and pleasant voice of Qin Siye came through from the other end of the line.
"Yes, I got it," Yin Xi replied.
"Then don't linger outside too long. Head home early."
Home? The man's warm, mellow voice sent an inexplicable warm current through her heart.
She now had a home again. Although it was only for three months, she was still moved.
"Okay. I will head back right away."
After hanging up the phone, Auntie Li looked at her with a smile, "Was that Mr. Qin who called, Miss?"
"Yes."
"That Mr. Qin is really a good person, it seems like he cares a lot about you."
Thinking of the butler who had followed them earlier, and the call just now, Auntie Li even started to harbor a thought.
If Miss Yin and Mr. Qin really turned their fake act into a true relationship, it might be a beautiful marriage.
Yin Xi just gave a faint smile, not continuing the conversation, but stood up from the couch and said her goodbyes.
"Auntie Li, I'm heading back now. I'll come to see you again when I have time."
"Sure. Take care, Miss!" Auntie Li gently pushed the suitcase to Yin Xi and saw her to the door.
Housekeeper Liu had just walked a short distance from Auntie Li's apartment building when he spotted those men again.
Not wanting to alarm Yin Xi, he didn't say anything and quickly continued to push her suitcase forward.
Yin Xi also felt that something was amiss and followed closely behind without saying a word.
It was only at this moment that she realized how fraught with danger her surroundings really were.
And all of Qin Siyan's concerns and arrangements had been right.
```
As soon as the two got into the car, Housekeeper Liu started the engine and sped off.
He wasn't afraid of those people but was worried that Yin Xi might get hurt.
So, for now, the best plan was to cleverly shake them off.
Not long after they had set off, Housekeeper Liu saw a black sedan closely following them from his rearview mirror.
"Miss Yin, please sit tight!" Housekeeper Liu said to Yin Xi in the back seat, then immediately accelerated the car.
Hearing this, Yin Xi immediately grabbed the handrail above her.
The car turned into a side road and, after several sharp turns across intersections and speeding quickly, Housekeeper Liu managed to confuse the trailing car and eventually lost them completely.
Finally, the Maybach smoothly traveled along the avenue, and it was only then that Yin Xi, with her face still shocked, came back to her senses.
"Miss Yin, are you all right?"
"No... no problem." Yin Xi lightly smoothed her disheveled hair, managing a forced smile, "Housekeeper Liu, I had no idea your driving skills were so impressive!"
"Not at all. I'm flattered, Miss Yin. Compared to the master, my driving skills are far inferior!" Housekeeper Liu said modestly.
Oh? Qin Siye seemed low-key and composed, like an old cadre; could he really be that good at driving?
They soon arrived at Star Blue Bay, and just as Yin Xi put her suitcase in her room, she received another call from Qin Siye.
"Hello? Yin Xi, I heard from Housekeeper Liu that there was a car chasing you earlier on the road, are you... are you okay?"
This was the first time he had called her by her name, and for some reason, Yin Xi's heart skipped a few beats.
She could confirm that this was the most pleasant she had ever heard someone say her name.
"I'm fine. Thank you!" Yin Xi immediately replied.
"That's good. For the next few days, don't leave the house, I'll take care of everything," the man's voice on the other end of the phone still sounded charming and captivating.
"Okay!" Yin Xi obediently responded, then quickly added another question, "I'm a bit worried about Auntie Li right now, will they go looking for her to cause trouble?"
Those thugs hadn't managed to catch her before; if they turned to find Auntie Li now, wouldn't she be in danger?
"Don't worry, they won't. I'll handle this," Qin Siye responded briefly and firmly.
He had already sent someone to watch over, and if those people dared to go back, they could be caught red-handed.
Suddenly, upon hearing his assurance, Yin Xi felt as if she had taken a tranquillizer.
"Okay."
By the side of the road, inside a black Audi, several men sat with their heads down, not uttering a word.
One of them took out a phone and dialed a number.
"Miss Lu, I'm sorry! We lost her."
On the other end of the phone, Lu Yutong suppressed the anger in her heart and asked in a low voice, "What did the man who accompanied her look like?"
"He's a man in his forties, looked very strong, driving a black Maybach," the man on the phone replied.
Hearing this, Lu Yushan frowned deeply.
So, Yin Xi really was capable, it seemed she had underestimated her; in such a short time, she had attached herself to an older man?
"Did you see the license plate number clearly?" Lu Yushan wanted to find out exactly who that man was.
The man's phone was on speaker mode, her words clear to everyone in the car.
He looked at the other men, who all shook their heads.
"No."
"What do you all eat to boast such strong abilities in front of me, with only this much to show for it?" Lu Yushan's annoyed voice came through the phone right after.
The air inside the car suddenly became tense, and everyone instinctively held their breath, not daring to even breathe.
After a while, the man holding the phone cautiously whispered, "Miss Lu, what should we do now?"
