"What about Hei Sha and Bai Sha?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Hu Niang prefers to be alone, so I didn't bring anyone!" Young Master Qiu said with murderous intent, "If Hei Sha and Bai Sha were here, I would have personally killed that scoundrel."
"Young Master Qiu, does this matter have anything to do with Miss Hu?" Jiang Yi deliberately asked.
"Nonsense, how could it have anything to do with Hu Niang!" Young Master Qiu said, "Hu Niang has no reason to harm me. Besides, this trouble happened because I went to the park and got into a dispute with someone, which led to this mess. It has nothing to do with Hu Niang. You are too suspicious!"

Jiang Yi said "oh" and remained silent.
Although it seemed like Hu Niang was not involved, the connection was likely significant. If it were a coincidence, it would be too much of one! Jiang Yi didn't quite understand why Hu Niang would do this. Young Master Qiu was the general manager of Wan Hui Company, and his boss was the owner of Wan Hui Company. However, even killing Young Master Qiu would be useless; it wouldn't destroy Wan Hui Company. Either Hu Niang was too foolish, or she had other motives. For some reason, things felt a bit complicated!
"Stop the car!" Seeing that his pursuers were not following, Young Master Qiu directly told Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi stopped the car.
"Young Master Qiu, when can I come to work?" Jiang Yi deliberately asked.
"The matter between you and Manager Yang has not been clarified yet, so you cannot come to work for now!" Young Master Qiu said, then comforted Jiang Yi, "Don't worry! Once this matter is investigated, you might still have a chance to return to work."
Jiang Yi inwardly sneered at this. Even if Young Master Qiu continued the investigation, it would be useless. He became an eighth-level killer through his own abilities and had no connection to Manager Yang.
"Jiang Yi, why do I feel like someone deliberately framed you and Manager Yang!" Young Master Qiu said.
"I think so too!" Jiang Yi replied, "I think the person who framed us is Manager Du. Everyone in the company knows that Manager Du and Manager Yang are rivals, and I have many grievances with Manager Du. Manager Du wishes I were dead!"
Hearing this, Young Master Qiu's brow furrowed.
"This matter… it seems I need to investigate it thoroughly!" Young Master Qiu's expression became serious.
"Young Master Qiu, shall I drive you to the company?" Jiang Yi asked.
"No need!" Young Master Qiu refused outright, "You are currently under suspicion, so it's best not to go."
"Young Master Qiu, I am also considering your safety. The people chasing you are likely on their way, and there might be killers nearby who want to take your life." Jiang Yi said.
"No need!" Young Master Qiu refused directly, "I am the general manager of Wan Hui Company. Who can do anything to me? Besides, I have already made a call. Hei Sha and Bai Sha will be here soon. With their protection, I don't need you. You are of no use to me now!" Jiang Yi was of no further use to Qiu Ce.
"Alright then!" Jiang Yi shrugged and got into his car to leave.
Just then, a man in a cloak walked towards them, his eyes flashing with cold killing intent.
"Young Master Qiu, see? That man in the cloak is coming for you!" Jiang Yi opened the car window and said to Young Master Qiu, "And across the street, there are also many people watching you. Young Master Qiu is wise and powerful, you must have noticed already, and with your abilities, dealing with them should not be difficult!"
Hearing this, Young Master Qiu quickly looked ahead and across the street. Indeed, he saw the man in the cloak and many people with murderous intent. The man in the cloak flicked his palm, and a sharp dagger fell into his hand. The people across the street also walked directly towards them. Young Master Qiu's face instantly turned extremely grim, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Jiang Yi, hurry and help me!" Young Master Qiu urgently said.
"Young Master Qiu, I don't think it's necessary!" Jiang Yi smiled slightly, "You just said you didn't need my protection, and I believe in your abilities. Besides, Hei Sha and Bai Sha will be here soon, and with them, no one can do anything to you!"
"You..." Young Master Qiu was directly embarrassed. He glanced around. Apart from the people trying to kill him, Hei Sha and Bai Sha were nowhere to be seen.
"Jiang Yi, how dare you disobey my orders!" Young Master Qiu roared in anger.
"I wouldn't dare disobey your orders, Young Master Qiu. You just ordered me not to protect you, and I followed that order. This is not disobedience!" Jiang Yi said with a slight smile.
Hearing this, Young Master Qiu's lips twitched with anger.
"Young Master Qiu, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now!" Jiang Yi said, preparing to start his car.
"I surrender!" Young Master Qiu frowned and said to Jiang Yi, "As long as you safely escort me to Wan Hui Company, I will agree to any condition!"
"You said it yourself!" Jiang Yi smiled.
"My word is my bond, I won't lie to you!" Young Master Qiu said unhappily but had no choice but to endure it. In fact, Jiang Yi didn't intend to provoke Young Master Qiu deliberately, but rather to make Young Master Qiu realize that he couldn't do without him. Only Jiang Yi could protect him.
"Whoosh!" The cloaked assassin's dagger stabbed directly towards Young Master Qiu's throat. Young Master Qiu was so scared that he froze in place, his face filled with despair. Jiang Yi grinned, lifted his leg, and kicked the cloaked man to the ground.
"Young Master Qiu, get in the car!" Jiang Yi shouted.
Upon hearing Jiang Yi's voice, Young Master Qiu finally came to his senses and quickly got into Jiang Yi's car. Jiang Yi did not linger, started the car, and drove away. After driving for two streets, Young Master Qiu's pale face finally recovered.
"Jiang Yi, you saved my life this time. I will definitely not treat you unfairly!" Young Master Qiu looked at Jiang Yi and said, "However, you played a trick on me just now, and I won't let you off easily!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yi showed no fear, but instead, he smiled.
"What are you smiling about? Do you really think I dare not do anything to you?" Young Master Qiu's face showed anger.
"Young Master Qiu, I didn't mean that!" Jiang Yi smiled slightly, "I just think those assassins are too foolish. They could have swarmed you and killed you directly, but only the man in the cloak made a move just now, and the others were just watching!"
