Ye Xiao deliberately put on a nonchalant face and said, "What danger could there be in broad daylight? Besides, I am fearless, hehe."

However, just at this moment, a 'woof woof' sound suddenly came from not far away.

Chen Yiyi, whose expression had been relatively calm, immediately changed her complexion.

"You need to leave!" Chen Yiyi frowned deeply, as if there was something very urgent.

Ye Xiao was instantly puzzled and said, "What's wrong? It's just a few barks. I'm not afraid of dogs."

"Who said you're afraid of dogs?" Chen Yiyi was very anxious at this moment because the barking was getting closer and closer, and she quickly said to Ye Xiao, "Those are people from my family walking the dogs. If they see a stranger here, they won't be friendly at all, so you'd better leave quickly.

"What? Is there no law?" Ye Xiao said righteously.

At this time, Chen Yiyi didn't know what to say; after all, Ye Xiao had indeed helped her just now. If those people saw Ye Xiao, then he would definitely be doomed.

"I beg you, leave quickly. Even I won't be able to protect you if they see you," Chen Yiyi said, frowning and looking very tense.

Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said, "It seems you're quite concerned about me. Could it be that after I heroically saved the beauty, you've secretly developed feelings for me? Well, that's understandable; who can resist my charm?"

Chen Yiyi was immediately speechless. At such a critical moment, he still had the time to joke—it's a matter of life and death!

At this moment, Ye Xiao continued, "I'm most curious now as to why your feet don't smell bad but have a faint fragrance?"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Chen Yiyi's face immediately flushed down to her neck as she recalled her intimate contact with Ye Xiao.

"There's someone there!" Just then, a voice came from afar.

Chen Yiyi was shocked. If those people came over, they would definitely see Ye Xiao, and that would indeed be big trouble.

Chen Yiyi immediately turned her head to speak to Ye Xiao, but she found that Ye Xiao, who had been standing beside her, had vanished, as if he had never been there. If not for the slight soreness in her feet, she might have thought she was hallucinating.

Soon, a few big men walking with wolf dogs came over. Seeing Chen Yiyi, they immediately said respectfully, "Miss, I just saw a shadow here, how come it's gone!"

Chen Yiyi glared at him and said coldly, "Is there something wrong with your eyesight? You know that staying with the Chen family requires strict standards. If your eyesight has problems, I don't need to tell you what will happen, so next time, if you're not sure, don't blabber because it might cost you your job."

"Yes, yes!" The man hurriedly replied upon hearing Chen Yiyi's words.

Afterwards, Chen Yiyi left directly, and those men with wolf dogs also followed her away.

After walking a bit, Chen Yiyi couldn't help but look back again, but she still didn't see the man who had helped her treat her foot injury. She regretted not asking for his name.

Chen Yiyi didn't see Ye Xiao because he was well hidden, but Ye Xiao watched Chen Yiyi and those men leave.

"Miss?" Ye Xiao murmured with a smile to himself. The men referred to Chen Yiyi as 'Miss'. Ye Xiao, being smart, immediately linked this girl named Yiyi to the Chen family, possibly like the connection between Jiang Miaoke and the Jiang family.

Fate is playing tricks, Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. The Chen family was his enemy, yet he saved their eldest daughter. However, Ye Xiao didn't regret it because Chen Yiyi was so pretty, and she was a naive and charming girl who was anxious just now for fear he might be caught by the Chen family's guards.

Sighing, Ye Xiao finally headed out of the woods.

He took the same path he came on, so it was familiar, and in no time, he arrived at the edge of the road. Patting his pockets, he suddenly remembered he had cigarettes but no lighter. Fortunately, there was a small shop nearby, so he went over, bought a lighter, and as he walked out, lit a cigarette. But right then, he suddenly saw a car speed past—it was a Yan City Hyundai. Although the car was moving fast, Ye Xiao had excellent eyesight and still saw the driver was Chen Haiqing.
