Chapter 451: A Good Habit

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Yao complained in his heart. He was clearly pursuing Yin Xun. He felt it was obvious but Yin Xun did not get a hint at all.

"Hey, Fang Yao." Yin Xun and Fang Yao were very close to each other right now. She sat down and did not move. Her upper body leaned over and inched toward him. "Since you investigated Liu Ying so meticulously, do you know that she no longer cares for Si Fan anymore but likes you now?"

Fang Yao reached out and pressed down on Yin Xun's head. He gently pushed her back and said helplessly, "I don't know if she likes me or not. 1 am only sure that 1 don't have feelings for her. Not now, and not in the future either. Also, I'm the type who won't get close to anyone I don't especially like."

He had already said so much. If Yin Xun still did not react, she might as well be rejecting him.

Sometimes, pretending not to understand would not ruin the original relationship between the two of them. Perhaps Yin Xun realized that, but she had her concerns.

This was also why Fang Yao had not made it one hundred percent clear. He needed to see Yin Xun's reaction. If Yin Xun did not reject him, he would be able to speak more clearly. I'm a clean freak in that sense.

Yin Xun sat back down and nodded in understanding. "That's a good habit. In the future, your girlfriend won't have to worry about you fooling around."

Fang Yao,"..."

Why did Yin Xun's focus deviate every time?

After dinner, Fang Yao and Yin Xun went to the living room to rest so that they could prepare for the training later.

Originally, Fang Yao thought that Yin Xun would go home to train, but surprisingly, Yin Xun took the initiative to stay and train before he could speak.

Fang Yao asked her about it, but Yin Xun only vaguely said that it was convenient. It just so happened that exercising would be good for his recovery too.

In fact, Fang Yao knew what Yin Xun was thinking. He was the one who asked Tan Ai to do all that so that Yin Xun would willingly come to his place to train. He did not expect Yin Xun to break after only one day.

Very good, this was exactly the change he needed. Fang Yao decided that when he trained Yin Xun later, he would control his strength and be gentle. He could not let her have the thought of retreating.

He had just eaten and needed to rest more before doing strenuous exercises. Otherwise, his stomach would get upset.

Yin Xun and Fang Yao sat on the sofa. Neither of them spoke. Just like before, the atmosphere was peaceful.

However, Yin Xun's phone suddenly rang at an inappropriate time. She took out her phone and saw that it was Mary.

She did not think of blocking out Fang Yao and answered the call.

"President Yin, Si Xia said that she found my younger brother and has already got him out. He asked me to go over and pick up my brother, and that..." Mary's sheepish voice came directly from the phone. "Can you lend me two bodyguards? 1 am worried about Si Xia's character. I am afraid that she and Si Fan will do something again."

Yin Xun raised her head and looked outside. It was getting late and it would be completely dark in a while. Si Xia had chosen to trade at night.

"Where is the address?" Yin Xun asked in a deep voice.

"Si Xia said that she secretly brought him out of the abandoned warehouse in the western district and told me to go over as soon as possible. If I'm discovered, even she won't be able to do anything," Mary said anxiously.

"Alright, send me your current location. 1'11 get the bodyguards to go over." Yin Xun hung up the phone after saying that.

"I thought you wouldn't let me know about this," Fang Yao said after Yin Xun hung up.

Yin Xun smiled guiltily at Fang Yao. "Actually, you already knew, didn't you?"

Fang Yao nodded. "I've known since Mary's brother was first captured. i planned to tell you, but I realized that you had also sensed it and made preparations, so 1 didn't make a move."

This kind of thing was commonly seen in business competitions. As long as the matter did not escalate too much, it was best to let Yin Xun handle it herself. It was considered training.

Otherwise, if the company grew bigger in the future and she could not even handle something like this, things would be even more difficult.

He knew that Yin Xun liked to rush in by herself. Since that was the case, he only needed to serve as backup.

Yin Xun nodded. "At that time, I thought that the fewer people who knew, the better. 1 was afraid that an accident would happen. However, since it's almost over now, there's no need to hide it anymore. Looks like tonight's training is going to be canceled. I have to accompany Mary personally. With Si Xia's personality, there's no telling what she will do."

With that, Yin Xun stood up and quickly walked toward the door.

"Let's take my car. i'll go with you." Fang Yao got up and quickly followed her..

Chapter 452: Yin Xun Was Almost Sent Flying

Yin Xun did not refuse. What happened later might be dangerous. Naturally, the more reliable people she had around, the safer it would be. This was not a television drama. Faced with a life and death matter, there was no need to be polite.

"Thank you," Yin Xun said.

Yin Xun called Tan Ai and Shu Yi over. The two of them drove Yin Xun's car while Yin Xun sat in Fang Yao's car. Their small party rushed to the place Mary had mentioned.

Mary said that she had already gone over. Yin Xun was worried that something would happen to her, so she asked her to hide somewhere a distance away from the destination and wait for them to meet up.

Mary was very obedient. As soon as she arrived at the scene, she reported to Yin Xun that she had already gone into hiding. When Yin Xun arrived later, she only needed to send her a message.

The driver saw Yin Xun sitting next to Fang Yao with a grim expression. He did not know what had happened. He only knew that Yin Xun had a special identity and was very close to their young master.

Seeing that she looked rather anxious, he stepped on the accelerator and sped up.

It was already past rush hour, and the sky was already dark. There were fewer cars on the road, so there was no need to worry about traffic jams. When they were about to drive out of the city center, there were also no traffic lights on the road. The driver drove his foot down on the accelerator and zoomed through the roads.

"Ah, maybe we don't have to drive this fast." Yin Xun felt that her back was tightly pressed against the back of her seat and even felt a little weightless.

She did not want to get into trouble before the rescue mission even started.

Fang Yao saw Yin Xun's worry and comforted her. "Don't worry. He's an

ex-racer. This much is nothing to him."

Yin Xun,"!"

She had watched a lot of racing in the past. When she thought of those racing drivers drifting down the roads one after another, she became even more worried.

She was afraid that the driver would suddenly drift if he was in the mood for it.

The cars, trees, and houses on both sides were rapidly retreating, and they were getting fewer and fewer. In the end, there were not even many street lamps left. The lighting was sparse and she could barely see the scenery outside.

Using the headlights, she could see nothing but desolation. It seemed that they were about to reach the place Mary had mentioned.

If Yin Xun drove here herself, she might not even be able to find the place because she had never been here before and the navigation was not good. She could not help but sigh in her heart. It was good to have more friends. They were indispensable at critical moments. Fang Yao's driver was a little scary, though.

After thinking about it, she could not tell if the driver did it unintentionally or if he was deliberately scaring Yin Xun. There was another turn in front, but he did not slow down and rushed over. Yin Xun was not wearing her seatbelt and was flung in Fang Yao's direction. Yin Xun let out a low cry as she lost control of her body and instinctively reached out to grab something.

Fortunately, Fang Yao reacted quickly. The moment Yin Xun lost balance, he immediately reached out to grab her, preventing Yin Xun from hitting her head.

After these movements, Yin Xun fell onto Fang Yao's lap. Most embarrassingly, her outstretched hand was tightly grabbing a handful of Fang Yao's hair...

Fang Yao let out a hiss of pain.

He did not expect this sudden turn of events. His hair was grabbed tightly by Yin Xun, and his scalp felt like it was about to be torn off.

"All, I'm sorry..." After Yin Xun regained her balance, she quickly let go of his hair. However, she even forgot to get up. She was still sitting on Fang Yao's lap as she apologized profusely. At the same time, she complained, "See, I told you that something would happen if we went too fast..."

Fang Yao said, "...Remember to fasten your seatbelt next time you're in a car."

Yin Xun agreed. "Alright, I've learned my lesson today." She was still a little afraid despite her complaints. Professional racing drivers were terrifying. She felt more at ease driving by herself in the future.

Listening to the conversation between the two of them, the driver could not help but feel anxious. He had created an opportunity for the young master. Why was the young master still acting like a gentleman now? Why did he not take this opportunity to be more intimate with Yin Xin and improve their relationship?

The butler had instructed him to create as many opportunities as possible for Yin Xun and Fang Yao.

The road ahead was straight and smooth. The driver slowed down and looked back. He saw Fang Yao helping Yin Xun up and personally helping her fasten her seatbelt.

Seeing the driver looking at them, Fang Yao glanced at him indifferently. There was a hint of warning in his cold gaze.

The driver's lips curled into a fawning smile. He quickly turned his head back and continued to focus on driving. Fang Yao had already given him a clear warning, so he did not dare to do anything else..

Chapter 453: Deal In The Suburbs

There were no other accidents along the way. Yin Xun and Fang Yao soon arrived at the place where they had agreed to meet Mary.

At the same time, Tan Ai and Shu Yi, who were following behind them, also arrived. They parked the car and got out.

The driver had turned off the headlights before they drove over the final stretch, so they would not be noticed by the other party. After all, in the darkness, any bit of light seemed out of place and was easy to spot.

Although it was already nighttime, the air was still slightly hot and moist. Yin Xun took a deep breath. The air was so humid; it seemed like it was going to rain.

Mary, who was hiding at the side, heard the commotion and secretly looked over. At the same time, she received a message from Yin Xun. Realizing that it was Yin Xun, she hurried over.

"President Yin, the place that Si Xia and I agreed on is about four hundred meters from here." Mary walked in front of Yin Xun and greeted Tan Ai and Shu Yi before speaking.

As for Fang Yao, she had never seen him before and did not know who he was. Hence, she only smiled and nodded in greeting.

Fang Yao was expressionless. He only nodded slightly and did not move. He did not intend to introduce himself.

"Tan Ai, give it to her." Yin Xun called out to Tan Ai, then said to Mary, "Very good, let's stop further away to avoid being discovered. Mary, it's always been you who contacted Si Xia. She doesn't know that we're working together, so you have to pick up your brother yourself. We'll follow you from behind. I'm not sure if Si Xia will prepare an ambush. How about this? Turn on the voice communication and I'll turn off the microphone on my side. That way, I can hear your conversation. Don't hang up. If anything abnormal happens, we'll go over and help you at once."

As Yin Xun spoke, Tan Ai took out a new phone from her bag and handed it to Mary.

"Use your own phone normally. This new phone has a call function and is hidden in your bag. Don't worry, the phone also has a GPS function. Even if you're taken away by them, I'll know where you are. Try to look natural. Don't let Si Xia notice anything amiss. Just act like usual." Yin Xun went forward and gently patted Mary's shoulder, signaling for her to relax and not be nervous.

"Thank you, President Yin." Mary's eyes were red as she looked at Yin Xun. Even her voice was trembling as she thanked her.

She did not expect Yin Xun to do this for her. Just letting her borrow her bodyguard was already very generous. Now that she had personally come to help, Mary did not know how to thank her. She could only remember this gratitude forever.

"Go," Yin Xun urged her.

Mary nodded. "Okay."

Mary had only taken a few steps when her phone rang. She immediately picked it up and turned on the speaker mode. Si Xia's impatient voice instantly resounded in the darkness. "Mary, why aren't you here yet? I'm getting anxious, you know?! If my brother finds out, not only will your little brother not be freed, but you'll be arrested too. Do you think I'm lying?"

"I'm heading over. Wait for me. I'll be there soon," Mary said, picking up speed.

The warehouse had been abandoned for many years. Weeds grew all over the place, and some even reached Mary's waist. With the faint light from her phone, she used a lot of effort to pass through the grass and enter the warehouse.

It was pitch-black inside. Mary shone her phone around and saw that the warehouse was huge and quiet. Even her footsteps sounded particularly loud. "Si Xia?" Mary called out softly.

Since Si Xia said she was here, she should have found the right place. However, the surroundings were too quiet. The phone's brightness was limited and could only illuminate a small area around her. The surroundings were still pitch-black and she was inexplicably afraid.

Mary walked a little further in, then stopped, not daring to continue. The warehouse was quiet. There was no sound at all. It did not look like Si Xia was here.

Mary wanted to ask Yin Xun what she should do, but she remembered that she could not expose Yin Xun's presence. She resisted the urge to take the other phone and turned to walk out.

On the other side, Yin Xun, Fang Yao, and the others had been quietly listening to Mary's movements.

"Strange, Si Xia was telling Mary to hurry up just now. She sounded so anxious, so why isn't there any movement now? Could it be that she's lying to Mary?" Yin Xun wondered aloud.

Fang Yao shook his head and pointed at his phone. "Maybe Si Xia was worried that Mary would bring someone else over, so she wanted to wait and see. After all, kidnapping isn't a small matter. Once it's discovered, everyone involved will be done for.."
