Qi Xiu Yuan knew that this woman was Sun Ze Yu's subordinate. At first, he did not want to pay any attention to her, but now in the presence of Susu, he had no choice but to shake her hand.

Once he lifted his head to look at her, he thought that this woman's expression was sheltered and strange, provoking him to give her a few more glances.

Zhang Juan Juan returned those glances with a warm and aloof smile before exchanging a few more words. But even after that, she unexpectedly did not bid farewell. Susu on the other hand did not show any sign of disturbance either, perhaps Zhang Juan Juan had said something to convince her beforehand.

Since Qi Xiu Yuan knew that Sun Ze Yu was the one that shadowed Susu yesterday, he somehow felt a sense of relief now. After he finished eating his lunch box, he quickly urged Susu to hurry to work.

Susu was still lingering in fear and incessantly expressed that she wanted to accompany her brother longer but since she was no match for Qi Xiu Yuan's urges, all she could do was call her colleague and asked them to come and get her.

Zhang Juan Juan silently watched as Susu walked out of the sick ward, and then watched the nurse as she inspected the ward. When the nurse finally left, she sat down at the bedside. Somehow, she did not regard herself as a stranger at all when she casually picked up Qi Xiu Yuan's cellphone and began to play around with it.

Even without any revealing any grand actions, Qu Xiu Yuan straightaway knew that this was the subordinate that Sun Ze Yu had mentioned earlier. Now that she appeared, he reckoned she was also the person appointed to keep surveillance on him to prevent him from getting in contact with Xiao Li.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel conflicted, causing him to not even want to give her another glance.

"Qi Xiu Yuan." Zhang Juan Juan, however, smiled at him first. Her expression was no longer the gentle one that painted her face before, instead seriousness took its place, "I've always wanted to meet you."

Qi Xiu Yuan shot her a glance, and somewhat understood why she was strange.

This kind of enthusiastic chatting style and the expression that bore interest toward him was not like that of a watch guard. But even then, he still maintained his silence since whatever the case may be, this person was Sun Ze Yu's subordinate. Therefore, even if she had something to say to him, he simply did not want to let her continue to speak.

For his silence, Zhang Juan Juan began to laugh. Then she flipped her palm over and put Qi Xiu Yuan's cellphone into her own exquisite small handbag before comfortably leaning back into the chair.

Without beating around the bush, she immediately said, "I understand your concerns. Since it's like that, I'll make my identity clear to you now."

She held her chin in contemplation before speaking again, "When I was on a mission last night, I received a call from Xiao Li," Qi Xiu Yuan lifted his eyelids to look at her once he heard that name, while Zhang Juan Juan faintly smiled, "He hired me to ensure your safety. When I heard that it was you, I was really surprised and I immediately contacted Uncle Sun. Now, my mission has an additional detail," she stared at Qi Xiu Yuan and slowly said, "Protecting you while also keeping an eye on you."

Qi Xiu Yuan looked at her and slightly frowned, "As it turned out, you're the independent bodyguard that Xiao Li sought out," he paused then spoke sarcastically, "The bodyguards that I've seen in movies were all really professional. I actually thought that it was really like that."
