Chapter 215: Chapter 215 An Yingying is Sentenced to Death

"When did it happen?" Fu Shiyan asked.

Director Li replied, "An hour ago, the suspect snapped An Zaili’s neck, very clean and efficient."

"Where is the suspect now?"

"Detained in the interrogation room, undergoing interrogation."

Fu Shiyan knitted his brows. "Director Li, this suspect is extremely dangerous..."

Before he could finish, he heard frantic shouting from the other end of the phone, "Director Li, the suspect has injured our people and has escaped!"

Director Li didn’t say anything more and hung up immediately.

An Yan saw that Fu Shiyan had a solemn expression, "What happened?"

Fu Shiyan told her about the murder of An Zaili and the suspect injuring a police officer and escaping.

Bi Mang frowned deeply, "That person will definitely target Baby Yan for An Yingying’s sake."

An Yan looked thoughtful. "What’s bound to come will come sooner or later, we’ll just wait for him to fall into the trap. Next Tuesday, my family is hosting a reunion banquet for me, and I think he definitely won’t miss this opportunity."

Lu Yun was the first to object, her voice tinged with worry, "Baby Yan, this is too risky."

Fu Shiyan reassured her, "Grandma, don’t worry, I will definitely protect Yanyan. After all, that man is like a bomb, and we never know when he will explode. Instead of dodging and waiting for him to explode, it’s better to take the initiative and take him out in one fell swoop."

Bi Chong raised his hand, "I will go protect my sister."

An Yan shook her head, "With Wolf and the others not around, you stay here to protect Grandpa, Grandma, and brother. I have Ayan and Teng Rui with me here."

Fu Shiyan nodded, "That’s settled then."

Two days later, Fu Shiyan and An Yan returned to Jiangcheng, after all, dealing with rats from the gutter required thorough preparation.

It happened to be Monday.

Fu Shiyan escorted An Yan to the underground parking garage and watched her get into her black Mercedes.

"Drive slowly; be safe," he instructed.

An Yan nodded, "I know, don’t worry, see you tonight."

"Okay."

After blowing Fu Shiyan a kiss, An Yan stepped on the gas pedal and left.

The car drove steadily on the road, and An Yan glanced at the rearview mirror to find a car following her.

A smile curved her lips.

Fu Shiyan was too worried about her.

Oh well, even if she told him not to follow, he wouldn’t listen.

She first went to the Zhenpin Residential Area to pick up Qingqing, and then they drove to Galaxy Design Studio.

Qingqing, noticing An Yan constantly checking the rearview mirror, felt it odd and lightly patted An Yan’s arm, "What’s wrong?"

An Yan replied, "Someone is following us."

She couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Qingqing nervously gripping the seat belt, "It’s Ayan, he’s escorting me."

Qingqing sighed in relief. Ever since the ordeal of being beaten and nearly killed, she still had residual fears and often had nightmares.

Once their car arrived at the design studio, Fu Shiyan’s car turned away and departed.

An Yan unbuckled her seatbelt and looked at Qingqing, "In a moment, I will take you to meet President Su. She’s very nice, so there’s no need to be nervous. You’ll start as a designer assistant, learning the basic knowledge."

Qingqing nodded, "I will work hard for sure."

An Yan smiled and praised her.

The two walked side by side into the building. The receptionist, seeing An Yan, was especially enthusiastic and even helped call the elevator.

Entering the elevator car, An Yan gave the receptionist a slight nod.

An Yan told Qingqing, "There are rules to the workplace; just keep your head down and work hard."

Qingqing replied, "Understood. What’s your position at the studio?"

An Yan said with a smile, "Designer assistant."

"Even though you could be a wealthy lady of leisure, you’re still striving so hard, starting from the bottom as an assistant. That’s really admirable. An Yan, I look up to you!" Qingqing’s eyes were full of respect.

An Yan patted her shoulder, "Work hard and keep it up!"

The elevator door opened, and An Yan led her first to Su Yue’s office.

Knock, knock, knock.

An Yan knocked softly on the door.

After receiving a response, An Yan pushed the door open and entered, followed by Qingqing.

Seeing the visitor was An Yan, Su Yue’s eyes instantly moistened, "You damn ghost! You’ve finally come back!"

She got up and rushed towards An Yan to hug her, "When did you return? Why didn’t you tell me? I would have picked you up!"

"I’ve been back for a few days. I didn’t tell you because some matters delayed me, and I also wanted to surprise you." An Yan gently patted her trembling back, "But, Little Yueyue, my eardrum is perforated, and I can’t hear anything. Do you want to repeat what you just said while looking at me?"

Su Yue’s back stiffened, and she let go of her, holding her shoulders with both hands, looking her up and down, "What a coincidence, your answer is exactly what I was asking! We really are in sync! But are you injured anywhere else?"

"No, I’m fine. It’s just that I can’t hear right now." An Yan said, "I’ll tell you the details later."

Qingqing’s nose turned sour as she spoke, "An Yan only shares the good news, not the bad. If it weren’t for her inability to hear everyone’s conversations, she wouldn’t even mention that there’s a problem with her ears. When she was rescued, she had seven gunshot wounds, her cornea was damaged, and her eardrum was perforated; she had bled dry. But thankfully, the child was saved. Later, she had a corneal transplant, but since the eardrum surgery requires general anesthesia, which could affect the baby, the operation can only be done after delivery."

Shocked, Su Yue turned her gaze from Qingqing to An Yan, stamping her foot in anger, "You went through such a big ordeal without saying a word, you really, you’re really making me furious! And you’re pregnant too?"

An Yan pinched her face, "I’m standing right here in front of you, alive and kicking. To be precise, it should be the three of us standing here."

"Two? Twins?" Su Yue was astounded, "Old Dog Fu’s?"

An Yan stifled a laugh, "Who else could they be?"

Su Yue was fuming, pacing back and forth with hands on her hips, "That bastard, I hate him so much, and you’re carrying that old dog’s brats. Why does he get all the good things?"

She raised her hand to her forehead, "Never mind, the child is innocent. How many weeks?"

An Yan said, "Twelve weeks, they’re fraternal twins."

"That’s wonderful, I’m the godmother then. No, no, we need to go to a maternity and baby store and buy some stuff."

An Yan held her hand, "It’s still early. Don’t get too excited."

Su Yue nodded, "I thought you were gone. It’s great that you’re back!"

An Yan saw that her delicate makeup was a bit smudged and helped her wipe away her tears, "Alright, alright, I’ll take you out for a big meal later to compensate for your injured little heart."

"That’s not enough. I’m going to kidnap you for a few days, let Old Dog Fu keep the bed warm by himself!"

An Yan couldn’t hold back a laugh, "I can just imagine his face, as sour as snail noodle soup."

Su Yue laughed heartily, "Serve him right!"

An Yan pulled on Qingqing’s hand, "Let’s talk business. This is Ruan Qingqing, my lifesaver. Start her off as a designer assistant, will you?"

Upon hearing that she was An Yan’s lifesaver, Su Yue immediately warmed up, "Thank you for saving my Baby Yan. I’ll pair you with an experienced designer to learn properly."

Qingqing nodded, "Thank you, President Su."

An Yan smiled lightly, "Then I will be going now."

After leaving the office, An Yan went to find Zhou Wenwen.

Upon seeing An Yan, Zhou Wenwen was very surprised, "An Yan, you’re back, that was quite a long trip."

An Yan realized that Su Yue must have told everyone that she had gone traveling.

Without explaining much, she just nodded, "The holiday was a bit longer. Is there any work now?"

Zhou Wenwen passed her a document, "Here are the new arrivals from various brands for the spring season. Study each brand’s characteristics and do a comparative analysis with Galaxy’s (AY) differences."

"Alright." An Yan sat at the assistant’s desk and started studying.

Zhou Wenwen admired An Yan for not taking the easy path as a wealthy wife or a gem appraisal master like Guyue, but rather working here as a lowly assistant.

Despite being close friends with the boss, she didn’t take any shortcuts and started from the ground up – not everyone could do that.

At noon, Su Yue came to get An Yan for lunch.

On the way, An Yan told Su Yue about everything that had happened in the past few months.

Su Yue had chosen An Yan’s favorite Sichuan restaurant for the big meal, ordering six dishes, all of them An Yan’s favorites.

An Yan felt helpless, "We agreed I’d treat you to a big meal, and you’re saving money for me, ordering all my favorites."

Su Yue laughed, "You definitely haven’t had any Sichuan flavors these three months. This time we chose your favorites, next time it’ll be mine. Otherwise, ordering too much would be a waste of ingredients, right?"

An Yan held her hand, deeply moved, "Little Yueyue, you’re really sweet."

"So are you." Su Yue held her hand back.

Soon, the dishes were all served, appealing to the eye and to the palate.

As they ate, An Yan asked, "How have things been with Si Heng?"

After taking a sip of sour plum juice, Su Yue said, "Ever since you disappeared, I haven’t spoken to him. It’s been like living with an enemy every day. I said I wanted a divorce, but he insists on waiting until at least the end of this year."

An Yan asked, "Does Si Heng really have a First Love?"

Su Yue nodded, "Yes, but I heard she’s dead."

An Yan blinked, "Then aren’t you considering...?"

Su Yue clicked her tongue, "You don’t know, that First Love had a sister, and Si Heng has been taking care of her sister all this time. Talk about a complicated situation. What if suddenly the brother-in-law starts a drama with the younger sister? If I got emotionally involved and then he put a green hat on my head, I wouldn’t stand for it."

An Yan said, "As long as you’ve thought it through. Matters of the heart are really tricky when past relationships are involved."

Su Yue nodded, "Exactly. I heard that Mu Yingying has been sentenced to death, with execution set for the end of the month."

An Yan hummed softly, "With her crimes adding up, she got what she deserved."

Su Yue lifted her cup, "Let’s celebrate."

An Yan picked up her cup and clinked it, "Cheers."

Watching Su Yue finish her drink, An Yan refilled her cup, "There’s another thing we need to celebrate."
