That night, late into the night.

In the master bedroom.

Chen Yinuo, who had originally planned to sleep with the little girl, eventually returned to the master bedroom, unable to fall asleep.

On the bay window of the master bedroom.

Ye Chen looked out at the night view, his brow furrowed in thought.

However, when the half-closed door was pushed open by Chen Yinuo, he immediately snapped out of his thoughts.

"Yinuo, what's wrong? Weren't you going to sleep with Youyou?" Ye Chen said with a gentle smile.

"I can't sleep. Why are you sitting here?"

Walking to the bay window and sitting down, Chen Yinuo said.

"Thinking about some things! What happened today scared me, Yinuo... I'm sorry, I was too careless. I completely overlooked your and Youyou's personal safety!" Ye Chen said solemnly.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, it didn't lead to irreversible consequences. Luckily!"

"Old Ye, let's not talk about the past. What should we do next? There was a time when I thought that something like kidnapping was a million miles away from us, but now... I'm really afraid it will happen again. If it happens again, I'll break down, I'll go crazy, I really will break down and go crazy! If anything happens to Youyou, I won't be able to live anymore!" As she spoke, Chen Yinuo couldn't help but become teary-eyed again.

Getting off the bay window, Ye Chen pulled his beloved into his arms. "There won't be a next time, absolutely not! I've already started working on the bodyguard issue, and I also plan to transfer Youyou to a prestigious kindergarten. What do you think?"

"Good. Whether it's in terms of education or safety, Zijing Kindergarten is definitely not comparable to those prestigious schools!" Chen Yinuo blurted out without thinking. This was also a question she had been considering.

"Since you agree, that's settled. Tomorrow I'll talk to Jingshan and Changfeng about arranging Youyou's transfer, and also, before the bodyguards are in place, you'll be your and Youyou's driver!" Ye Chen said seriously.

Although Zhang Jingshan had single-handedly resolved Youyou's psychological trauma from the kidnapping, this trauma was destined to linger in Ye Chen's and Chen Yinuo's hearts.

This wasn't just a matter of learning from experience; it was like being bitten by a snake once and being afraid of ropes for ten years.

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Chen Yinuo bit her lip and nodded lightly.

"That's settled then. Go back to Youyou's room. After everything she's been through today, I don't know if Youyou will have nightmares in the middle of the night. If she does, it won't do if you're not by her side!" Ye Chen said.

"Okay!"

Raising her hand to wipe her wet eyes, Chen Yinuo then turned and walked out of the master bedroom.

And Ye Chen continued to sit on the bay window with his back against the wall, his brain working rapidly again.

The long night passed quickly amidst his swirling thoughts.

Fortunately, the soundly sleeping Ye Youyou didn't have any nightmares. The kidnapping incident seemed to have truly become a fun game in her mind.

The next day.

Although they were preparing to transfer Ye Youyou to a new school, Ye Chen thought it over and over again, realizing that they couldn't just stop everything because of this. He still sent the little girl to Zijing Kindergarten.

After all, before the transfer, he couldn't just keep the little girl from going to school.

At Yiren Ruxue.

When Ye Chen and Chen Yinuo walked into the company side by side, the employees' greetings were accompanied by a hint of complexity in their eyes.

Clearly, the company's employees had more or less guessed something about Ye Youyou's kidnapping, mainly because the commotion last night was really big. After the kidnappers called, Mr. Ye quickly rushed to the customer service department and cleared the area, with a large group of plainclothes police officers following.

Based on this, the authenticity of the kidnappers' call was implicitly confirmed.

Amidst the greetings, Ye Chen and Chen Yinuo didn't show any abnormalities and responded with smiles as usual.

This left the staff who were speculating about the kidnapping incident confused. Had the little princess been rescued? Or was the phone call at the customer service department last night just a farce?

Just as Ye Chen and Chen Yinuo entered the office, the phone rang abruptly.

The caller ID showed: Qiqian!

"Hello, Captain Qi, good morning!"

Walking to the sofa area of the general manager's office and sitting down, Ye Chen answered the call.

"Mr. Ye, the child is alright, she didn't have nightmares, right?" Qiqian said.

"Thank you for your concern, Captain Qi. She's fine, everything's alright!" Ye Chen said.

Qiqian on the other end clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he said with a wry smile, "It's good that she's alright, but please also tell the Old Secretary's grandson not to be so reckless in the future. Last night, the four kidnappers were buried up to their heads by his people. It took our people a lot of effort to dig them out. The nature and impact of this matter is extremely bad, even if the other party is a kidnapper who deserves to die! Because of this, those kidnappers are clamoring for our police to handle the case impartially and arrest him. Of course, considering all aspects of the situation, our police won't make a big deal out of it, but the medal and certificate that could have been awarded to him won't be given now!"

"Okay, I'll talk to him later!" Ye Chen had no choice but to laugh along.

He then immediately changed the subject. "Captain Qi, you called me not just for this, right? Did you hear back from your childhood friend?"

"Yes, I told him everything, and he agreed. He took the earliest flight today and just landed. He's asking me where to meet you!" Qiqian said seriously, getting to the point.

"Good, have him come directly to Yiren Ruxue!" Ye Chen felt a surge of joy.

"Okay! Mr. Ye, my childhood friend doesn't talk much, but his skills and character are absolutely impeccable. If he's willing to work for you, that would be a good choice! But he has a bit of an arrogant personality, please be understanding!" Qiqian said.

"Okay, thanks!" Ye Chen said.

"Don't mention it. After that accident, he's been depressed until now, so I also hope he can return to a normal life as soon as possible! Alright, I won't say anymore. I'll call him and have him go find you first!"

Qiqian hung up the phone with a smile.

Following Ye Chen's instructions to the front desk, an hour later, a man who didn't look particularly strong, with a five-inch crescent-shaped scar on his face, was brought into the meeting room where Ye Chen was waiting.

"Mr. Ye?"

The man in camouflage clothing spoke calmly and respectfully.

"Yes, it's me! I forgot to ask Captain Qi your name, so... how should I address you?" Ye Chen smiled harmlessly.

"Wang Meng!" As if reluctant to waste words, the man uttered two words.

"Alright, Wang Meng, I believe Captain Qi has told you everything. I also believe that the person recommended by Captain Qi is definitely not an ordinary person, so I won't say anything more. I also learned something about your situation from Captain Qi, so, an annual salary of 1.5 million, how about it?" Ye Chen said.

"1.5 million?" Wang Meng raised his eyebrows, clearly extremely surprised by this number.

"What? Is it too little?" Ye Chen said.

"No!"

Wang Meng shook his head. "Although I don't think I'm worth that price, since you dare to offer it, then I dare to accept it! However, I need to receive a year's salary in advance. Is that a problem?"
