Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1433 - Yu Ning's Worries

"Haha, good, very good!" Old Zhao was clearly very happy- he turned to Elder Bi and Guangyin, "Guangyin, lil' Bi, I'll let you two handle the house's affairs for a while- I'll need to be practitioning in isolation, and it might take a very long time. We must be careful during this period- don't attract any trouble and just try to endure it first, and by the time I become Sky class, House Zhao will no longer needs to fear anyone!"

"I understand, father, I've already instructed Li Cihua to be more reserved," Guangyin nodded.

With the approval of Old Zhao, Qibing naturally entered the Zhao house. While there were disapprovals expressed within the household, Elder Zhao was in isolated practitioning, so even if someone had something to say, there was nothing they could do. In the first place, Old Zhao's decisions weren't something for other people to question!

Of course, putting that aside, there was also the fact that Elder Bi had taken Qibing on as his disciple- this was like a landmine to everyone's ears, especially threateningly so to Yu Xiaojin! Qibing moving into the house, to be frank, wasn't that big a deal- she would just be uncomfortable about it, but that was it.

But Elder Bi taking him as his disciple was a very suggestive move- could it be that the old man was planning on raising him as the heir?

Xiaojin exploded when Guangyin walked back into the room! She needed to know just what this Qibing was here for!

"Zhao Guangyin! Speak, tell me- what are you planning, bringing that bastard home?!" Xiaojin was someone with a strong background, too, so there was no reason for her to be modest in the Zhao house, "Letting Elder Bi take him as disciple? You want him to be the next heir? That's not possible, the heir must be a child of yours and mine!"

Xiaojin wasn't the type to go crazy like this, but this was way beyond her expectations.

"Xiaojin, bringing Bing back was something done by father, not me, and Elder Bi was the one who took him as a disciple!" Guangyin said, "Don't yell at me, I don't know the insider information, but this isn't some secret- if you don't believe me you can go ask Elder Bi yourself! ALright, I'm tired, I'm going to rest!"

Guangyin's relationship had always been cold with Xiaojin- his relationship with her had never been very passionate, especially since he had played a countless amount of women before. Their marriage was also one not born of love either. He had been letting her win the past because House Zhao needed House Yu's strength, but now that his father was soon to be Sky class, there was no reason for him to be like that anymore, they would be equals with the Yu's soon!

Plus, there really wasn't much he could say about Qibing's stuff, either, since the elixir was taken from a man of the Yu house! Speaking too much would give away some information, so Guangyin decided to just keep silent!

Xiaojin evidently wasn't expecting this attitude from him as she was also someone from a big house! She knew that something was up, something didn't make sense! Since Guangyin didn't bother explaining to her, she wouldn't argue with him, since that would only make things more difficult and awkward!

What she decided to do instead, was give her elder brother a call- her father was always in isolated practitioning, and was something of a god that protected House Yu. He wouldn't leave isolation easily, and it was her brother Yu Xiaochen that made all the decisions for their house.

"Hello?" It was a young girl's voice.

"Ning? Is that you? I'm your aunt!" Xiaojin could hear that it was Yu Ning- she smiled, "Is your father there, I need to talk to him."

"Wait a second, auntie, dad is talking with his men- I'll tell him to call you back later?" Yu NIng asked.

"That's fine. Tell him to call me later then, tell him he has to call my handphone, not my house phone!" Xiaojin said.

"Alright," Yu Ning was confused- did something happen over there at the Zhao house? She stopped her thoughts there though, since she didn't want to get involved in the stuff between houses, nor did she want to carry the burdens of House Yu, she just wanted to be a normal girl...

"Ning, who called?" A boy around the same age as Yu Ning walked over.

"Brother, it's auntie, she's looking for dad..." Yu Ning said, "Since you're here, I'll go back first- you tell dad later."

"Alright," Yu Ning's brother smiled bitterly, "Going to draw?"

"Not now," Yu Ning shook her head, "No leads on him yet?"

"There is, but... Some things can'e really be said..." Yu Ning didn't say who the person was, but her brother knew- it was Lin Yi. In the past, there was no info on the man, but now there was plenty of it, though he didn't know how to start telling her about it.

Lin Yi actually went and became enemies with the common house Yu, and so naturally House Yu would stand behind the common House Yu, there was nothing to be said about that. As a result, he was worried that his sister would do something unreasonable, so he never told her the truth.

As the next heir of House Yu, Yu Bing naturally had access to the information channel of House Yu, and the news surrounding Lin Yi was also becoming more and more abundant. This made him happy, but also put him in an extremely difficult position!

He didn't want House Yu to have conflicts with Lin Yi, no matter if it was from the perspective of a brother or from his sister's perspective- he didn't want House Yu to become Lin Yi's enemy!

But that wasn't something he could decide- the head of the house was his father, Yu Xiaochen, and the common house Yu had been earning a lot of money for them. The hidden house Yu never respected them, but they couldn't just leave them be when something happened to them. Otherwise, who else would earn money for House Yu?

And so he kept trying to dampen the negative news regarding Lin Yi, letting his father put his focus on the qi gathering pill's news. His father was already an Earth class late phase peak with only one step away from becoming Sky class- with that pill, it wouldn't be a dream anymore.

"Brother, you have his news? Then why aren't you telling me?" Yu Ning said happily as she shook her brother's arm, "Come on, tell me!"

"He... Right now, he's big enemies with the common House Yu...." Yu Bing sighed after a while, deciding to tell the truth. It wouldn't be good to keep hiding it from her.
