Chapter 2097: For the Sake of the Big Picture, Please Bear With It

Su Kexuan could not see his face.

Yet she knew that this person had just steadied a young woman who was about to fall.

And now, he was extending a helping hand to her.

Was this out of kindness, or did he have ulterior motives?

Su Kexuan narrowed her eyes and followed the man until they reached the entrance of a passageway.

Following this passageway, one could bypass the crowd and walk directly to the back door of the Zhanlanguan.

Su Kexuan did not rush to leave; she reached out to grab the man, intending to have a word with him.

But the man's reaction was even faster than Su Kexuan's.

Sensing Su Kexuan's intent, he slipped away like a loach, using the momentum to shake off Su Kexuan's hand.

Afterward, he quickly blended into the crowd behind him.

From beginning to end, all Su Kexuan saw was the man's back...

It had to be said, this person was very guarded.

And his reflexes were fast; if Su Kexuan were to compete with him...

It was hard to say who would win and who would lose.

Su Kexuan cast a deep look in the direction of the crowd.

Afterward, she followed the passageway away from the crowd.

Not long after she started walking, Su Kexuan's phone rang.

She answered the call and chatted while walking.

The person calling was the head of a very famous modeling agency.

The head greatly admired the photographer holding the photo exhibition and hoped this photographer could shoot high-quality blockbusters for their company's models.

Su Kexuan had not expected the collaboration to come so quickly, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up.

However, she did not agree immediately, saying instead: "The photographer is currently not in the country; I need to discuss it with him."

"Understood, we can wait! Miss Su, my eye for talent is very sharp; I dare say this photographer will definitely be a hit in the future!"

The head's words made Su Kexuan's smile deepen a little.

She said: "I will do my best to help facilitate this collaboration."

"Then I'll wait for Miss Su's good news!"

After ending the call with the head, Su Kexuan prepared to contact the photographer.

But this photographer had a very strange temper; he particularly hated others disturbing his sleep.

And at this moment, on the other side of the Earth where he was, it was the middle of the night...

Su Kexuan gave up the idea of calling and prepared to contact him later.

However, the moment Su Kexuan put away her phone, her peripheral vision caught sight of a pair of sneakers.

The shoes were in a sorry state, covered in several footprints.

The other party seemed to notice that Su Kexuan was looking at his shoes and hurriedly hid in a corner.

Unfortunately...

It was too late to hide now!

Su Kexuan turned around leisurely, crossed her arms, and commanded: "Come out!"

The other party did not move.

"I'm a person who likes peace and quiet; I don't care what your purpose is, don't follow me anymore!"

The response to Su Kexuan was still a silence.

Clearly, this person did not intend to listen to Su Kexuan.

Su Kexuan sighed softly.

Then, with a helpless expression, she said: "If you won't listen to reason, then I can only call the police and say there is a stalker here."

As she spoke, Su Kexuan took out her phone.

And this time, the other party could no longer remain silent.

A young man was seen walking out from the corner.

The man was large and had a very sharp gaze.

But Su Kexuan did not see any malice in his eyes.

Meeting Su Kexuan's gaze, the man awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

Then he negotiated with Su Kexuan: "Please don't be impulsive; I am here to protect you. Please, by all means, do not call the police and complicate things."

"You say you are here to protect me, and I should believe you?"

"Hey, but what I said is all true!"

"Then tell me first, who sent you!"

"Our boss!"

Thinking that Su Kexuan probably did not know who his boss was, the man said a name: "Xie Wanyi!"

Xie Wanyi, huh...

This answer made Su Kexuan somewhat surprised.

Lowering her eyes to ponder for a moment, Su Kexuan asked again: "Why follow me? Is someone looking for trouble with me again?"

"This... I don't know. I just received a mission that I need to protect you by your side."

The man was telling the truth; he truly did not know the answer to the question Su Kexuan asked.

Su Kexuan did not make things difficult for him, just waved her hand and said: "You go; I don't need protection."

Hmm...

The man pursed his lips and smiled.

Then he corrected, "Protecting you is just a side task; the main person the boss told me to protect is the one who is causing you trouble."

Huh?

Su Kexuan found it unbelievable.

Her eyebrows twisted together little by little like a braided dough twist: "Is Xie Wanyi out of his mind?!"

"The boss is thinking long-term. He said that since your skills are extraordinary, if someone who doesn't know life from death comes to bother you, you might, in a fit of anger..."

As the man spoke, he reached out and made a gesture across his neck.

Su Kexuan understood what the other party meant.

But she felt it was too exaggerated: "I am a law-abiding citizen; how could I be that violent!"

"Yes, yes, yes, you are right; I was exaggerating. But having one more person to help means one more layer of security."

"Thank you, but I don't want this security."

Saying this, Su Kexuan waved her hand, signaling the man to leave as soon as possible.

Seeing this, the man immediately let his face fall and pleaded, "Please don't drive me away, or my mission will be a failure."

"Whether you succeed or fail has nothing to do with me. Go back and tell Xie Wanyi that I appreciate his good intentions."

After Su Kexuan finished speaking, she didn't bother with the man anymore and turned to leave.

Only, after walking a few steps, she could still feel the man following her.

This made Su Kexuan lose her patience.

She stopped in her tracks, about to turn around and warn the other party.

Who knew the young man would speak first: "If you can drive me away, I'll leave; if you can't, then just pretend I don't exist!"

After saying that, the young man slipped away in a flash.

His speed was extremely fast.

Su Kexuan stood where she was, blinked, and then felt both amused and annoyed.

She also knew that the young man just now was acting under orders.

If she wanted to solve the problem completely, she still had to find Xie Wanyi.

It just so happened that this place was not far from Xie Wanyi's company.

After finishing her business, Su Kexuan set off to find Xie Wanyi.

She had originally thought that as long as she explained her thoughts to Xie Wanyi, he would withdraw his good intentions.

After all, helping others should be based on mutual consent, right?

But who would have thought that Xie Wanyi would actually refuse!

This made Su Kexuan a bit angry.

She crossed her arms and said with a tense expression, "I need a reason that can convince me."

Xie Wanyi said with a very good temper, "I know you aren't used to it, but for the sake of the big picture, please bear with it for this period of time."

"The big picture?"

Xie Wanyi nodded slightly: "Whether Sui Xin lives or dies has nothing to do with us. But once she goes crazy, it is inevitable that she will accidentally hurt you and the Li Family."

"So, to avoid being hurt by her boomerang, we have to be cautious and on guard everywhere?"

"Before she makes her next move, that is the case."

After hearing this, Su Kexuan rubbed her forehead with her fingers.

Clearly, she was not satisfied with this plan.

Xie Wanyi saw Su Kexuan's thoughts.

But he did not intend to change his mind.
