Chapter 466: Chapter 466: She Must Go Save Him

Aunt Xue said anxiously, “Where do you think you’re going with such a big belly? If you don’t make it clear, how can I relax?”

“Rest assured, there won’t be any problems.”

“No, you can’t go anywhere right now. Just stay at home quietly and wait until your son-in-law comes back.”

If it had been before, Aunt Xue wouldn’t have interfered so much.

But now that Yan Qianyi was pregnant, she couldn’t rest easy letting her go out alone.

“I can’t wait for him to come back,” Yan Qianyi said.

She had to go and save him.

“Then I’ll go with you.”

“No, you can’t come with me.”

While Yan Qianyi was dealing with Aunt Xue, the Nangong couple hurried over.

After hearing from Yan Qianyi that military people had come to their home, Nangong Xiaoxue, feeling uneasy, brought Nangong Jie over.

The couple had been worried all the way until they saw that Yan Qianyi was safe and sound, which finally allowed them to breathe a sigh of relief.

Yan Qianyi told them about the situation, then asked,

“Grandma, does this necklace serve any purpose? The people just now seemed to stop taking me away after they saw my necklace. They even mentioned something about a ‘Death Exemption Token.'”

Seeing the necklace in Yan Qianyi’s hand, Nangong was startled and looked at Nangong Xiaoxue in amazement, “You actually gave this necklace to Qianyi?”

“What? Is there a problem?”

Nangong Jie quickly nodded, “Of course, that’s fine!”

He was just surprised that his wife would be willing to give away such a treasured item. It seemed she really liked Yan Qianyi.

If it had been before, he certainly would have objected.

But things were different now.

“It’s good that you were wearing this necklace today,” said Nangong Xiaoxue. “Otherwise, if they had taken you in for interrogation, it would have been much more troublesome for us to get you out.”

Yan Qianyi was puzzled, “The necklace has that kind of use?”

“Of course, it was given to your grandfather by the King. In the entire Federation Empire, it is the only one. Seeing this necklace is as good as seeing the King himself, it’s equivalent to having a Death Exemption Token.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Qianyi suddenly felt the necklace become heavy in her hands.

No wonder Ah Lie told her to take good care of it and not to lose it.

She had not expected such a valuable item to be willingly given to her by Nangong Xiaoxue initially.

Yan Qianyi asked, “Grandma, did Ah Lie go with the Commander to the Morris Empire?”

Nangong Xiaoxue did not respond but glanced at Nangong Jie.

Yan Qianyi continued, “I won’t ask about other things, I just want to know where he has gone.”

At the moment, it was all her speculation. She had to be sure.

Nangong Jie nodded, “Yes, it seems like you are also aware of the Commander’s situation?”

“Yes, I just called my brother. That matter has nothing to do with him. I believe him.”

Nangong Jie nodded slightly, “Yes, I’ve heard about your brother’s character from Ah Lie. I don’t believe he would do such a thing.”

Yan Qianyi smiled happily, “You believe my brother?”

“Of course, but my belief is of no use now since I’m no longer in charge of the military and government,” Nangong Jie said with a frown.

“As long as the Commander returns safely, your brother’s problem won’t be an issue. If… when the time comes, no matter what explanation your brother provides, the Federation Empire is unlikely to let it go.”

After all, the incident occurred on the territory of the Morris Empire.

Yan Qianyi stated firmly, “There will be no ‘ifs.’ I believe the Lord Commander will definitely return safely!”

The Commander was so formidable, and with Ah Lie by his side.

Together, they were a formidable team, capable of overcoming any obstacle.

They would definitely break through and return home safely!

Nangong Xiaoxue once again suggested that Yan Qianyi stay with the Nangong Family for a while, but after Yan Qianyi refused, the couple left.

After seeing off the Nangong couple, Aunt Xue asked Yan Qianyi worriedly, “Miss, you just mentioned that you need to make a long trip. Are you going to look for your son-in-law?”

Aunt Xue had stepped away during the three’s conversation; she didn’t know what had happened but was uneasy about Yan Qianyi going far alone.

“I’m not going out. I’ll just stay at home.”

“Then what about just now…”

“It was a misunderstanding just now, there’s nothing wrong.”

Aunt Xue breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good, you scared me to death. I’ll continue to sort through Madam’s belongings.”

“Yes, that’s fine.”

Yan Qianyi planned to go upstairs and pack her things, intending to set off after Aunt Xue was asleep at night.

That’s when Xu Yuan’s voice message came through, “Qianyi, Nurse Li came to the Group looking for you.”

“Nurse Li?”

“The one called Li Ying, the nurse who was involved in Mu Feng’s emergency treatment back then.”

“Oh, it’s her, what does she want with me?”

“I don’t know, she just said she needed to speak with you in person.”

“Okay, tell her to wait in my office. I’ll be right there.”

After hanging up, Yan Qianyi saw Aunt Xue still standing by, looking at her worriedly.

She smiled helplessly, “Don’t worry, it’s something to do with the Group. I need to go take care of it. I’ll come back after it’s resolved.”

“You can’t take the chance to go far away.”

“Of course not, look, I’m not even taking any luggage, where could I go? Don’t worry, I’ll be right back, and make something delicious for lunch when I return.”

Aunt Xue smiled with satisfaction, “Well, I’ll finish sorting Madam’s belongings and then get cooking.”

Yan Qianyi arrived at her office in the Group.

Seeing her come in, Li Ying immediately got up to greet her, “Qianyi, sorry to bother you.”

“It’s no bother at all, but… Aunt Li, I reminded you last time, after you left Capital Star, not to come back. Why did you…”

She had been in contact with Mu Chen, who she found to be very guarded.

All those who were involved in Mu Feng’s medical emergency had signed confidentiality agreements, and now, they were unreachable, save for Li Ying.

If Mu Chen found out Li Ying had reappeared at Yan Group,

Yan Qianyi was worried that Mu Chen, afraid of the past being exposed, might harm Li Ying.

Li Ying would be needed as a witness after exposing Mu Chen, so nothing could happen to her just now.

Li Ying nodded, “I know, I promise I won’t come back after this time!”

“Sit down and talk.” Yan Qianyi sat on the couch. “What’s the matter? Have you recalled something else?”

“Nothing new. I’ve told you everything I know about the two young masters of the Mu Family.” After hesitating for a moment, Li Ying asked, “Qianyi, you mentioned last time that if I needed help later, I could reach out to you anytime. Does that still stand?”

“Of course.”

“Well… could you lend me another two million?”

Yan Qianyi was taken aback, “Aunt Li, I remember your son’s business was a small trade. Wasn’t the two million I gave before enough to circulate?”

“He does indeed have a small business. After he got the money last time, he wanted to expand the business. Unfortunately, it all fell through… Could you maybe help out just one more time? I promise this is the last.”

“Sure, I’ll transfer it to you right now,” Yan Qianyi said readily.

“You’re so kind, Qianyi. Thank you so much!”
