Chapter 454: Si Xia Was Here

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Tan Ai and 1 will go and take a look," Shu Yi suddenly said. After getting Yin Xun's permission, she took Tan Ai with her and walked in the direction Mary had disappeared.

They did not leave with Mary earlier because they were afraid of being discovered by Si Xia. Since Mary had already gone over, they should be able to follow her from a distance. They could go over to support her at any time. If anything happened, they could inform Fang Yao and Yin Xun in advance so that they could escape in time.

However, Mary, who was still in the warehouse, did not know that Tan Ai and Shu Yi were coming over. She thought that she was the only one in this abandoned and dark warehouse. The smell of old decay lingered on the tip of her nose. At this moment, she was so frightened that her body trembled slightly.

"Mary, I'm here."

Just as she thought Si Xia was not here and was about to leave, she suddenly heard someone calling her.

Right after that, the innermost part of the warehouse suddenly lit up. She saw Si Xia standing there without any cover. It seemed like she did not notice her sooner because it was too dark and she was too nervous.

She looked over and saw Mark lying at Si Xia's feet. Mark was tied up tightly and even his mouth was stuffed with rags. She did not know if he was awake or unconscious.

"Why didn't you say anything just now?" The moment Mary saw Si Xia and Mark, she heaved a sigh of relief and walked toward them.

However, she had only taken two steps when she felt that Si Xia's expression seemed weird. Si Xia stood there quietly and did not reply. Her face was cold.

What was going on? Sensing that something was wrong, Mary immediately stopped and asked, "Si Xia, how's my brother? Let him go first. Then I'll do what 1 promised you..."

Mid-sentence, Mary suddenly felt a heavy blow on her neck. Then, her mind went blank and she felt dizzy. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Before she lost consciousness, she let out a scream instinctively and fell silent.

Yin Xun had been paying attention to Mary's movements. When she heard Mary's scream, she knew that something was wrong. She immediately sent a message to Tan Ai and told her about Mary's situation.

Tan Ai and Shu Yi had already quietly arrived near the warehouse. When they saw Yin Xun's message, they immediately went inside.

"Don't worry. Tan Ai and Shu Yi are professionals. As long as the enemy doesn't have a gun, nothing will happen to them." Although Yin Xun did not say anything else, Fang Yao could sense Yin Xun's worry. His face, illuminated by the phone screen, was pale and his eyes were filled with worry.

He grabbed Yin Xun's hand. As expected, Yin Xun's palm was sweaty and trembling slightly.

Sighing a little, Fang Yao comforted Yin Xun. "Go wait in the car first. If you're really worried, 1'11 go over and take a look myself. If anything happens, the driver will protect you and you can leave immediately."

Although Yin Xun was usually smart and quick-witted, she was just an ordinary girl after all. She had never experienced something like this. In addition, she had a good relationship with Mary, so it was natural for her to be worried.

Yin Xun rejected Fang Yao's idea and held his hand tightly. She looked at Fang Yao appraisingly and said, "I'll go too. Let the driver stay here. If he finds that something is wrong, he can call the police immediately."

Fang Yao looked deeply at Yin Xun. At this moment, Yin Xun had already put down her phone. Although the surroundings were pitch-black, he seemed to be able to sense Yin Xun's determined gaze.

Fang Yao smiled and nodded in agreement. "Okay."

In the warehouse, after Mary was knocked out by someone, the surroundings finally lit up. It was surprising that after the warehouse was not in use for so many years, the electric lights could still be turned on.

If Mary was awake, she would be able to see that other than Si Xia and Mark, there were also four burly men standing near her.

The person who knocked her out was a man with tattoos all over his arms. The tattooed man was holding a baseball bat in his hand and was currently looking at Si Xia with a fawning smile.

"Sister Xia, how did this lass offend you to the point that you—who's never gotten involved with these things—would dirty your hands?" The tattooed man walked in front of Si Xia, his expression no longer as ruthless as before.

Si Xia did not answer. She walked to Mary's side and patted her face. After confirming that Mary was really unconscious, she said to her immobile figure, "Trying to threaten me? Other than my brother, no one can order me around. Don't think that you've grasped my weakness or something. Other than handing over your brother, 1 still have ways to make you do my bidding.."

...

Chapter 455: How Many People Are There?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Si Xia stood up and warned the man beside her, "No one is allowed to tell my brother about this, or you'll face the consequences."

"Sister Xia, don't worry. We're the Boss's people. You're the Boss's sister. As such, we're also your people. So, we'll do whatever you say. We know you won't harm Boss, right?" The tattooed man chuckled.

Si Xia rolled her eyes at him and did not say anything else.

She, harm Si Fan? How was that possible? She loved Si Fan more than anything. How could she harm him? For Si Fan, she was willing to do anything, including all kinds of illegal stuff.

However, Yin Mo was really an eyesore, and Si Fan protected Yin Mo very well, so she could not touch Yin Mo at all. Fortunately, Mary was here. Since she said that she had a way to deal with Yin Mo, Si Xia naturally had to agree to her offer.

In the beginning, she sincerely wanted to cooperate with Mary, so she brought Mark out.

However, the few people in charge of guarding Mark said that the boy was very important to Si Fan. If they really handed Mark over, it would probably affect Si Fan.

Although she could not imagine how a small employee like Mary could affect Si Fan, she eventually accepted this argument.

Just before Mary arrived, she suddenly thought of a solution. She did not have to let Mark go, but she could still have Mary continue to do things for her obediently.

All she had to do was grasp Mary's weakness. She would use whatever Mary valued the most to threaten her.

Si Xia got up and looked at the tattooed man. "You..."

Bang!

Before she could finish the sentence, the door of the warehouse was suddenly kicked open. Si Xia turned around and saw the person standing at the door. It was a woman, but she was wearing a mask and hat. She could not tell what she looked like.

"Who are you?" The moment she saw the woman, Si Xia cursed in her heart. Could it be that Mary really brought people over?

However, when she saw that the newcomer was alone, she was secretly relieved.

At this moment, Shu Yi was standing outside the door. She asked Tan Ai to hide at the side and wait for an opportunity to make a move, while she went over to scout the situation.

She looked at the inside of the warehouse and pretended to be surprised. "Oh, there's someone here? When I saw the light from afar, I thought I was seeing things. It's great that there's someone here. This place is so remote. 1 think I got lost. Can you tell me how to get to the Western District? My phone ran out of battery."

Hearing Shu Yi's sincere question, the few people present were a little stunned. Everyone looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other's eyes.

It was so late at night. How could anyone get lost in such a place?

"Sister Xia, this..." The tattooed man did not know what to do. After all, they were about to do something bad and this woman at the door bumped into them. For a moment, he was not sure what to do.

Si Xia frowned and looked at Shu Yan. "Are you lost?"

Shu Yi nodded. "That's right. It's scary to walk alone in the middle of the night. Fortunately, I found you guys. I'm not as scared now." As she spoke, she patted her chest as if she was really relieved.

"Do you know Mary?" Si Xia stared at Shu Yi and asked directly.

If Shu Yi showed any suspicious signs, she would have no choice but to do her in as well.

Shu Yi shook her head. "I don't know this person. Why? Did your friend get lost too?"

Si Xia nodded and replied, "That's right. She just went out and hasn't come back yet. We're waiting for her to come back so that we can leave. If you're not in a hurry, you can come in and wait for a while. When we leave, we'll drop you off somewhere nearby where you can get a taxi."

Si Xia originally wanted Shu Yi to leave as soon as possible, but no matter how she thought about it, the situation just did not feel right.

How could a girl suddenly come to such a place in the middle of the night? She might have come with Mary and, after seeing Mary leave but not return, she came to check the situation.

If that were the case, it would be bad if this woman called the police if they let her leave. Si Xia might as well capture them together and threaten them not to tell anyone. She might even get a pleasant surprise after this.

Thinking of this, Si Xia decided to lure Shu Yi inside.

Shu Yi could not ask for more. She was worrying about what excuse she should use to go in and check on things. When she heard Si Xia's words, she instantly said happily, "Okay, that's great. If it weren't for you, I'll probably have to walk until tomorrow morning by myself."

Shu Yi slowly walked in.. As she walked, she asked, "How many of you are there? Other than your friend who left, are there any others who got lost outside?"

...

Chapter 456: It's All Recorded

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Si Xia shook her head. "No, just the one. We'll leave when she comes back." At the same time, she winked at the burly men beside her.

The tattooed man immediately understood Si Xia's meaning. He signaled at his comrades, then looked at Shu Yi. They all nodded lightly, then pretended as if nothing had happened and took a few steps outside.

Shu Yi walked in front of Si Xia and realized that there was someone lying at her feet. Her eyes instantly widened and she said in surprise, "What's wrong with that person? She looks unwell." At the same time, she bent down and reached out, pretending to touch her.

Si Xia said indifferently, "She's not feeling well. Soon, you'll be like her... Do it!"

Si Xia suddenly issued an order.

The burly men received the order and immediately rushed toward Shu Yi. At this moment, Shu Yi was bending down to check on Mary's condition and did not look back at those people.

When Si Xia saw this, the corners of her lips curled up slightly with a hint of smugness.

However, she had overlooked an issue. The door of the warehouse was suddenly kicked open in the middle of the night. How could this girl be an ordinary person?

When the burly men were about to touch Shu Yi, Shu Yi did not even turn her head. It was as if she had eyes on her back—she dodged one of the burly men's flying lunges. At the same time, she turned around and kicked another man to the ground.

Seeing the third big man rushing over, Shu Yi quickly retracted her foot and grabbed the big man by the arm. She turned around and swung him. The big man was thrown to the ground by a smooth shoulder throw.

At the same time, before the man could react, Shu Yi pressed down on a certain body part of his, causing him to be unable to stand up.

The last thug was about to charge forward, but when he saw this happen, he was stunned. He stood on the spot, not knowing if he should continue attacking or retreat.

He never expected that the woman would have such skills.

She had somehow knocked down three burly men by herself. Most importantly, those who have been knocked down did not get up. They were all nursing the places where they had been beaten and lying on the ground, groaning.

Although his comrades had not learned proper martial arts, they were still very good at fighting. After all, all of them had helped Si Fan fight many times.

Logically speaking, it was difficult for one person to defeat them all in an instant. There was only one explanation; Shu Yi was specially trained.

"Do you want to give it a try?" Shu Yi beckoned to the last burly man, indicating for him to come over.

The burly man took a step back and looked at Si Xia. "Sister Xia, this... what do you think we should do?"

To be honest, the burly man was only a little wary of Shu Yi, but he was not truly afraid. This was because from his observation just now, he knew that Shu Yi did not have any weapons. Her bare hands could do limited damage to him.

If the other party had a knife in hand, he would definitely run away without looking back.

Si Xia was so frightened that she fell to the ground on her butt. She stared at Shu Yi in horror. When she heard the burly man's words, she said fiercely, "Why can't you guys beat one woman? Don't you have a stick in your hand? Hurry up and attack!"

Hearing her words, Shu Yi smiled and called out loudly, "Lil Ai!"

At this moment, the burly man picked up the baseball bat beside him and ran toward Shu Yi, brandishing the weapon.

He planned to use all his strength to strike Shu Yi. Once his blow landed, no matter how good Shu Yi's physique was, she would not be able to withstand it. Shu Yi stood there and did not move. She watched calmly as the man rushed over.

The burly man was pleased. He thought that his intimidating moves had frightened Shu Yi. He thought that he would surely win.

However, before he could touch Shu Yi, he suddenly heard a sound. Then, he sensed something flying toward him.

Bang!

Before he could turn around and swing the baseball bat in his hand, he was knocked unconscious by something that flew over.

After he fell to the ground, Shu Yi looked down and saw a fist-sized stone beside the man. The stone was surrounded by sharp edges and there were some bloodstains on it. The burly man had fainted after being struck by it.

"You're slow."

Shu Yi looked up at the warehouse door. Tan Ai was slowly walking over.

At this moment, Tan Ai frowned slightly and was a little impatient.

"It's because I wasn't sure if Miss Mary is safe. 1 have to ensure her safety before I can engage." Shu Yi shrugged.

Si Xia was so frightened by Shu Yi that her legs went weak. She looked at Shu Yi in horror, her body still trembling uncontrollably.

Tan Ai told Shu Yi, "I've already recorded everything that just happened.."

...

Chapter 457: Let Si Xia Off

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Okay." Shu Yi walked in front of her and squatted down. She looked her in the eye and slowly said, "Miss Si Xia, how do you want to deal with tonight's matter? Should we call the police to handle things, or do you want to pretend that nothing happened?"

Si Xia looked up at Tan Ai who was standing not far away, then turned back to look at Shu Yi. She said, "So you guys are Mary's friends. Since that's the case, you guys can take her away. And her brother too. I didn't see anything. I was just here for an outing..."

"I'm afraid that's not a good idea."

Before Si Xia could finish her sentence, another voice came from outside the warehouse. Si Xia wailed in her heart. Why were there still more people? She thought that she was the only one who brought more people tonight. Everything should have been within her plan. She did not expect Mary to be even more meticulous. She actually brought this many people. Even those two fighting experts were not enough. There were even more people outside!

However, why did this voice sound so familiar?

Afraid that she would get attacked too, she looked outside with trepidation. The next moment, a man and a woman walked in. They were people she knew. "Yin Xun?" Si Xia was shocked, forgetting to be afraid. "You? Didn't you fall out with Mary?"

After saying that, Si Xia finally reacted. She looked at the unconscious Mary and said angrily, "So, you tricked me! No, all of you worked together to trick me!"

When Shu Yi and Tan Ai saw Yin Xun enter the building, they silently stood aside.

Yin Xun walked to Mary's side and said to Si Xia, "Didn't you lie to Mary too? You two are even now." She then turned to look at Shu Yi and asked, "How is she? Do we need to call an ambulance?"

Shu Yi was weaker in combat than Tan Ai, but she knew a little about traditional medicine. Apparently, she was forced to learn it by her parents when she was young. Although she did not learn much, she could still check if a person was in danger.

"She only fainted. She'll wake up in a while. She's fine," Shu Yi replied.

Hearing this, Yin Xun was relieved. She looked at Si Xia and said, "Originally, I should have called the police. This should be their job. However, since you really brought Mark out, I won't call the police this time. We'll count ourselves even. As for whether you want to tell Si Fan or not, it's up to you."

After saying that, Yin Xun took a deep look at Si Xia before leaving with Mary and Mark.

"You guys..." Si Xia watched as her prey walked away. Although she was afraid of the two bodyguards by Yin Xun's side, she still shouted indignantly, "That b*tch Yin Mo stole something important from your Yin family. She's using this as an excuse to threaten my brother to marry her! Haven't you guys always been against Yin Mo and my brother being together? They're about to get their marriage certificate!"

Yin Xun did not slow down at all. She replied without turning her head, "Whatever. It has nothing to do with us."

"Even if it's your Yin Family's confidential information? You're alright with that?" Si Xia continued to shout.

Yin Xun finally stopped in her tracks. She turned around to look at Si Xia and smiled. "Do you think she has the skill to do that? Even if she does, she won't get the chance."

They walked out of the warehouse before Fang Yao said, "Why did you let Si Xia off so easily? This isn't your style." If it was any other time, Yin Xun would have called the police and arrested Si Xia.

Yin Xun frowned slightly and turned her head to look at the unconscious Mary and her brother. "It's useless to capture Si Xia. I'm fighting against Si Fan. Besides, don't you think that Si Xia is actually a poor ally? I have Yin Mo by my side, and Si Fan has Si Xia by his side. It was originally a draw, but now, Si Fan has two terrible allies by his side. Naturally, 1 won't help him get rid of them. It's better to leave such matters to him."

Now, she was worried that Si Fan would use Yin Mo to gain a breakthrough from Yin Cheng and Wu Li. She knew how much the two old folks cared for Yin Mo.

Although Yin Cheng had agreed to Yin Xun's actions that day, if Yin Mo went back and said something nice and coquettish, the two of them might turn soft.

However, Yin Xun only kept this in her heart and did not say it out loud.

This time, things went more smoothly than expected. At the very least, Yin Xun thought Si Xia would set an ambush with a few more people. She was surprised it was only four people

The girl had looks but no strength. However, that was good too. It saved her a lot of trouble.

As for what would happen to Si Xia for letting Mark go, that was not something Yin Xun should be concerned about. Actually, there was another reason why she did not touch Si Xia. She knew that Si Xia had a heart condition and could not take any stimulation..

...

Chapter 458: I'm Back

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

If Si Xia suddenly fell ill and died, the gains would not make up for the losses. It was better to leave this mess to Si Fan. After all, he might be even angrier.

Yin Xun successfully rescued Mark and Mary. After Si Xia realized that she had been tricked, her heart burned with anger.

Due to her fury, even her body, which had recovered with much difficulty, began to feel uncomfortable again.

Looking at the few burly men lying on the ground, she was even more furious. When she recovered some strength in her body, she got up and walked to them. She kicked them one by one to wake them up.

Actually, the tattooed man had not fainted from the beginning. After seeing Shu Yi's skills, he knew that he could not beat her. He just did not want to be beaten up more.

Just being beaten up was one thing, but he was even more afraid that the other party would call the police. After all, aside from the kidnapping case, he was actually doing other illegal business with his pals. If that was found out, things would be difficult.

When he was kicked by Si Xia, he pretended to slowly wake up. Then, he got up from the ground and smiled at Si Xia while calling up his comrades.

"Sister Xia, not only did we fail to catch Mary, but we even let her brother, Mark, escape. What should we do now? If Boss finds out, we're finished." The tattooed man rubbed his bald head and asked Si Xia with a worried expression.

Si Xia rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "You still have the cheek to say that? Before we came here, who was the one who said that he was good at fighting but couldn't even beat a woman in the end? What did my brother raise you all for? Worthless trash."

The tattooed man knew that he would only be scolded worse if he continued talking. Si Xia and Si Fan were indeed siblings. Even their personalities were the same, so he did not dare to continue speaking.

They all reorganized themselves before returning to the Si Residence.

On the way back, Si Xia's expression was gloomy. She was thinking about what Yin Xun had said before she left.

In the past, she thought that Yin Xun and Yin Mo were biological sisters who were related by blood. However, the last time they met, she realized that Yin Xun did not like Yin Mo either. The two of them seemed to have had a dispute over the Yin family's assets.

Since they were not on good terms, things would be easier for her. This was also why Si Xia asked those questions just now.

However, there was one thing that puzzled her. Yin Xun and Yin Mo were clearly at odds. If she knew that her sister had stolen the most important thing in the company to give to the person she hated, how could she be so calm about it?

Also, the Yin family had always been against Yin Mo and Si Fan being together, but when she said that Yin Mo was getting married, what did Yin Xun say?

It had nothing to do with her...

Si Xia's heart skipped a beat. Something seemed to be about to rush into her mind. She frowned in deep thought. The next moment, her eyes widened. She seemed to understand why Yin Mo was in such a hurry to get married!

When they returned to the entrance of Si family's home, Si Xia told the burly men to go back, making sure to warn them to keep their mouths shut. She explained that she would look for Si Fan to clarify this matter.

Everyone knew how much Si Fan doted on his sister, so they agreed and left.

Si Xia tidied herself up and walked toward the Si residence. She did not let her lackeys send her straight to the door because she was afraid that Si Fan would find out that she had released Mark without permission. It was better to tell him later.

It was already midnight. Most of the houses had turned off their lights and their residents were resting. However, the street lamps in the villa area were still lit. The gentle yellow light would not affect others, but it could still illuminate the surroundings.

Si Xia walked to the entrance of the villa and realized that the door was not closed. At this moment, the villa was brightly lit. It seemed like Si Fan was not sleeping.

If Si Fan was preparing to sleep, the lights in the house would not be switched on. She rubbed her face to make herself look more relaxed before walking in.

When she walked into the villa, Si Fan and Yin Mo were sitting on the sofa in the living room, talking to the servant anxiously.

"I told you to keep an eye on the young Miss. What were you doing? You didn't even notice that she was missing! If anything happens to her, don't even think about getting out of here!" Si Fan looked hysterical. Yin Mo sat beside him and comforted him gently.

Si Xia saw that Si Fan was so anxious about her. A sweet feeling surged in her heart.

However, when she saw Yin Mo comforting Si Fan, the jealousy and anger in her heart rushed out again.

Thinking of what Yin Xun said before she left, she suppressed the anger in her heart and forced herself to flash a relaxed smile. "Brother, I'm back." Si Xia sweetly greeted Si Fan.

When Si Fan heard Si Xia's voice, he was stunned for a moment before turning around to look at her. Then, he stood up and strode over to Si Xia, nervously sizing her up.. "Xiaxia, where did you go? Why are you running around when you're not well?"

...

Chapter 459:I Don't Have a Home

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yin Mo also walked over and asked Si Xia with concern, "That's right, Xiaxia. Your brother and 1 were so worried about you. Why are you only back now? Where did you go?"

Si Fan and Yin Mo's faces were filled with anxiety, but in Si Xia's eyes, Yin Mo was just putting on an act.

"Yin Mo, let me ask you something. Do you really have what you promised my brother?" Si Xia stared into Yin Mo's eyes and asked.

Yin Mo's face instantly turned pale. She raised the corners of her mouth stiffly and asked guiltily, "Xiaxia, what do you mean?"

"Xiaxia, what are you talking about? How do you know what Mo'er is planning to give me?" Si Fan asked with a frown. He remembered that he had never told Si Xia about this, and Yin Mo would never say such a thing.

Si Xia raised her hand and gestured for Si Fan to stop talking. "Brother, 1'11 explain it to you later."

She looked at Yin Mo again and took a step forward. "Yin Mo, you know what 1 mean. Why? You don't dare to answer? Are you afraid that my brother will find out that you don't actually have it?"

Seeing that Si Xia seemed to know something, Si Fan looked at Yin Mo in confusion. At this moment, he could not care less if Si Xia found out about this, so he hurried to ask, "Mo'er, I've already agreed to marry you. I won't go back on my word. It's not like you don't know my feelings for you, and we've waited long enough. It's time for you to give it to me."

In the face of Si Xia and Si Fan's questioning, Yin Mo's face was filled with panic. She took two steps back and tried to defend herself. "Of course I do. I told you, I'll give it to you after Fan and 1 get our marriage certificate. How about this? We'll go get our marriage certificate at dawn, okay? I'll give it to you immediately after we get it."

Yin Mo tried her best to smile, but she did not realize how awkward it was for her stiff face to have such an expression.

Looking at her expression, Si Fan had already guessed most of it.

His expression immediately darkened and he said coldly, "Mo'er, you know that I hate deception and betrayal the most. If you lie to me, you should know the consequences. But if you tell me the truth now, 1 will forgive you no matter what you do."

"Fan..." Yin Mo was being pressured by Si Xia and Si Fan step by step. She knew that she could not hide it anymore, so she made up her mind and decided to tell the truth.

"Fan, 1 don't have a home now. I only have you..." Yin Mo's eyes were filled with tears.

Si Fan's brows were tightly knitted together. He had a bad premonition and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly happened? Tell me clearly."

Yin Mo started to cry in a daze. She sobbed and said, "I was chased out of the house by my sister after trying to sign the contract for you..."

As Yin Mo cried, she told Si Fan about the situation that day, but she did not mention that she had angered Yin Cheng to the point that he was hospitalized.

Hearing Yin Mo's explanation, Si Fan gritted his teeth and stared at Yin Mo. Anger surged up within him. He had been tricked by Yin Mo!

She clearly did not have the contract and did not accomplish anything, but she used this to threaten him to get married to her. Damn it, why did he never realize before that Yin Mo had such thoughts?

Si Fan wanted to flare up, but on second thought, the situation did not seem right. Yin Mo had always been doted on at home. Back then, she had done so many terrible things and had not been punished. Why was she suddenly chased out of the house this time?

Afraid that Yin Mo was still testing him, he patiently said, "Mo'er, have you really been chased out of the house? Or are you just having an argument with your family?"

Yin Mo nodded. "I've already been sent to prison by my sister. How is this just an argument? It's my sister and the others who don't want me anymore. Fan, from now on, you're the only one I have left. You said that you would marry me and take care of me."

When Si Xia heard Yin Mo's explanation, she was elated. She was right. Yin Mo had been lying.

This was great. Si Fan hated being deceived the most. She had a good show to watch now. Her mood suddenly improved. Si Xia secretly glanced at Si Fan's face, which was terrifyingly dark. She quickly took two steps back and waited calmly to watch Yin Mo suffer Si Fan's wrath.

"Yin Mo!" As expected, Si Fan gritted his teeth. He hissed, "Impressive, you actually dared to lie to me. Butler!"

"Yes, Young Master." When the butler heard Si Fan's voice, he immediately stood up.

Si Fan looked at Yin Mo coldly. At this moment, he finally did not have to pretend anymore. His eyes were filled with disgust. He pointed at Yin Mo and said, "Chase her out!"

"Fan, what did you say? You promised to take good care of me!" Hearing Si Fan's words, Yin Mo widened her eyes in disbelief and looked at Si Fan.. "We haven't registered our marriage yet..."

...

Chapter 460: Give My Heart To You

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Miss Yin Mo, the Young Master is in a bad mood. You should leave first." Although it pained the butler to see her like this, he could only listen to Si Fan's words. He went forward and politely asked Yin Mo to leave.

Yin Mo did not move. She only stared at Si Fan, wanting to fight for her last chance. "Fan, are you really going to make me leave?"

When the butler saw that Yin Mo did not move, he looked a little troubled, but he could not really push Yin Mo. After all, Yin Mo had lived in the Si home for so long, and these people had long thought that Yin Mo was more or less the mistress of the Si family.

However, he did not dare to disobey Si Fan's orders. Everyone was afraid of Si Fan's temper, and he was no exception.

He had no choice but to continue persuading Yin Mo. 'Miss Yin Mo, Young Master is still in a fit of anger. You should wait for him to calm down before coming over."

Si Fan snorted. "What's there to be angry about, Yin Mo? Since you're no longer useful, let me tell you. I've never really loved you. I've been with you for this long just to use you. Now that you've lost your final bit of value, how can you possibly stay with me?"

Si Fan's words hit Yin Mo's heart like a hailstorm. Yin Mo lowered her head and was silent for a moment before she suddenly laughed.

Her smile immediately frightened Si Fan and Si Xia. The two of them looked at Yin Mo in surprise, not understanding what she was laughing at.

Was she going crazy? The two siblings looked at each other.

"Yin Mo, what are you laughing at? What's wrong? Are you too ashamed to show your face now that the truth is out, so you're losing your mind?" Si Xia asked.

Yin Mo raised her head and stared at Si Xia. Her gaze was completely different from before, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in it now. She smiled and asked Si Xia, "Xiaxia, your heart isn't doing good. You can't hold on much longer, right?"

Si Xia snapped, "What does that have to do with you!"

"Of course, it has something to do with me." Yin Mo raised her voice. "Si Fan, your motive for keeping me by your side isn't just to make use of my background, right? I've long known that you don't love me. Your other motive is to take my heart."

Si Fan and Si Xia's expressions sank at the same time. They looked at each other in confusion. How did Yin Mo know about this?

Si Fan had only told Si Xia about this. Given that Si Xia hated Yin Mo so much, there was no way she would tell her about this. Could it be that Yin Mo discovered it herself? With Yin Mo's intelligence, that seemed impossible.

"If you chase me away, you won't be able to get my heart anymore. After all, you should know how difficult it is to find a heart that's suitable in all aspects." After saying all this, Yin Mo suddenly stopped panicking. She stood there calmly and looked at the siblings in front of her. "Marry me, and I'll give you my heart."

Si Fan looked at Yin Mo with a complicated expression. He could not believe what Yin Mo was saying. "Do you know what you're talking about?"

Yin Mo nodded and said, "Of course, 1 know. 1 knew what 1 was doing from the beginning. I love you with all my being. I gave up everything for you, but it's a shame that you don't have me in your heart at all. Since that's the case, you can put my heart in the most important person to you. This way, you will also be loving me in a sense..."

When she said this, Yin Mo's expression was extremely calm; it was as if she was talking about something insignificant.

However, these words shocked Si Fan and Si Xia.

Si Xia shook his head and said, "Brother, 1 don't want her heart. She's a lunatic!"

Si Fan did not say anything. He just stared at Yin Mo.

"Xiaxia, don't be so angry." Yin Mo laughed. "Your heart can't hold on much longer. If you want to live, you have no choice but to use mine. Do you know how difficult it is to find another? Especially since using a live transplant is illegal. It's not easy to find a voluntary subject."

At this moment, Yin Mo seemed completely insane. Not only was there no fear on her face, but there was also a hint of excitement.

"Alright, you can stay. I'll marry you," Si Fan said calmly.

"Brother! No, 1 won't allow it. I won't take her heart even if I die!" Si Xia was so angry that she screamed in defiance.

She loved Si Fan too. She would also die for Si Fan. She would never allow her body to have Yin Mo's organs. That would disgust her for the rest of her life.

Si Fan scolded her in a low voice, "Xiaxia, stop fooling around. Don't keep talking about dying. I won't let you die."

He turned to look at Yin Mo. "Okay, I promise you."

"Brother!"

"Shut up and listen to me."

While they were arguing, the butler suddenly walked toward the door and asked in surprise, "Assistant Cheng, when did you arrive?"

...

Chapter 461: Heard It All
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As soon as the butler finished speaking, the few people who had been arguing suddenly fell silent and looked at the door in unison.
Cheng She, who was standing at the door, looked at the people in the room and immediately pulled his leg back. He was about to leave quietly when the butler saw him. The scene was a little awkward.
Cheng She smiled stiffly and greeted Si Fan. "President Si, I'm sorry to disturb you so late at night. I called you just now, but you didn't answer, so I came over."
Si Fan frowned and looked at Cheng She coldly. He did not say anything. Instead, he turned around and said to the butler, "Bring Yin Mo and the Young Miss back to their rooms first. I will settle things with them after I am done with them. Remember, don't let them run around."
"Yes, Young Master." After the butler replied, he turned around and asked Si Xia and Yin Mo to leave with him.
The two girls' faces were filled with unwillingness. They looked at Si Fan, then at Cheng She, their eyes holding a look of blame.
Si Xia was usually very obedient to Si Fan. When she heard Si Fan telling her to return to her room, she grudgingly but obediently walked toward the second floor. She took two steps and saw that Yin Mo did not follow her. Yin Mo stood there and stared at Si Fan as if she had been possessed. She was not even blinking.
Si Xia walked in front of Yin Mo and glared at her fiercely. She did not even ask for the butler's help and directly pushed Yin Mo upstairs. As she walked, she said, "What are you looking at? Didn't you hear what my brother said? Hurry up and go back to your room. It's already good enough that you are allowed to stay in this house!"
The servants also tactfully left. At this moment, only Cheng She and Si Fan were left in the living room. It was silent.
At this moment, Cheng She's face was filled with panic. Although he was already trying his best to pretend, he was still worried that Si Fan would find out. He looked at Si Fan guiltily. Since Si Fan did not speak, he did not dare to speak first.
"Come in." Si Fan walked to the sofa and sat down. He poured himself another cup of tea.
Cheng She slowly moved to Si Fan's side and stood upright. His eyes were only fixed on his shoes, like a child who had been punished by a teacher.
Si Fan slowly took a sip of tea and glanced at Cheng She coldly before asking in a low voice, "When did you arrive?"
Cheng She's heart tightened. Was Si Fan worried that he overheard what he had just said?
"President Si, I just arrived not long ago. The courtyard door wasn't closed and the lights were lit in the house. I guessed that you were not asleep, so I came in directly. I didn't expect the butler to have such good eyesight. He greeted me the moment I came in," he explained nervously.
"What did you hear just now?" Si Fan stared into Cheng She's eyes.
As expected, that was something he should not have heard. Damn it. Cheng She cursed the butler in his heart.
When he first arrived, he heard the commotion in the room and thought that Si Fan was throwing a tantrum again. After all, Si Fan had always been like this. No matter how big or small the matter was, he would explode if he was unhappy.
He stood at the door and planned to wait for Si Fan to finish venting before going in to look for him. In his rage, Si Fan could easily hit someone. He did not dare to take that risk. He only realized what they were talking about when he heard words like "stolen contract", "taking lives and a heart" and so on.
This was not something an assistant like him should know. Coincidentally, Si Fan had not spotted him. He wanted to slip away quietly, but he did not expect the butler to see him.
Now that everyone saw that he was here, he could not leave. He could only brace themselves and stay. Cheng She knew a lot about the dirty things that Si Fan had done.
He was already worried that he would not be able to leave Blue Fox because he knew too much. Now, he had accidentally heard something he should not know. If Si Fan found out, he would never get to leave.
Although he was complaining inside, he did not show it on his face. Cheng She's mind raced as he quickly thought about what he should say. After thinking for two seconds, he said, "1 heard you saying something about never letting Second Miss die. President Si, Second Miss's illness is already so serious that her life is in danger. What should we do? Can't the best hospitals do anything?"
He pretended that he had just arrived and did not hear the key point.
Hearing Cheng She's words, Si Fan's expression softened a little. He said, "It's nothing. She just needs to recuperate well. Why did you come here?"
It was rare for Si Fan to speak to him so amiably. It seemed like Si Fan did not suspect him anymore..

...

Chapter 462: Blocked
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Cheng She instantly felt flattered and hurriedly explained, "It's Miss Wang. She's been saying that she wants to see you for the past two days, so 1 said you were busy to brush her off. But for some reason today, Miss Wang said that she must see you. Even if she can't see you physically, she would call. She also said that if you don't contact her, then..."
Cheng She looked at Si Fan worriedly and said, "Then you would bear the consequences."
Smack!
As soon as Cheng She finished speaking, Si Fan threw the teacup in his hand to the ground. Before he could take a few sips of the tea, the cup shattered and the contents splashed everywhere.
Cheng She instinctively dodged to the side. Fortunately, he moved quickly to avoid being splashed.
"1 know that Miss Wang's relationship with Blue Fox is not ordinary. I didn't know how to deal with her, so 1 can only come and report to you." Cheng Shi asked, "President Si, what do you think we should do?"
Si Fan's face darkened. He knew what Wang Ran meant. She was urging him for the contract. Back then, the two of them had agreed that Si Fan would help Wang Ran get the Yin family's collaboration contract and Wang Ran would invest in Blue Fox.
From the looks of it, the contract was gone, so Wang Ran's investment was probably gone too.
"You can go back first." Si Fan took out his phone and was about to call Wang Ran.
Cheng She did not expect Si Fan to let him off so quickly this time. He did not even hit or scold him. Cheng She was overjoyed. He bade Si Fan farewell and left in the next second.
He could finally get off work. He still had to work overtime for Si Fan in the middle of the night. Most importantly, he did not get overtime pay. He would not stay a moment longer. If he was told to leave, he would leave immediately. Staying for another second was the same as not respecting yourself.
Wang Ran had been waiting for Si Fan's call for a long time. When Si Fan called, the other party immediately picked up.
Just as Si Fan expected, the first thing Wang Ran asked for was the contract. "Fan, how's the deal between us going? Where's that contract?"
Initially, Si Fan thought that everything was going according to his plan. He did not expect to be tricked by Yin Mo. Si Fan was extremely frustrated, but he suppressed his emotions and tried his best to maintain his voice as calm as possible. "Ran'er, what if we change the conditions of the trade?"
"From what you're saying, it seems you didn't get the contract." Wang Ran immediately understood what Si Fan meant and her voice turned cold. "Si Fan, we agreed back then that we would each take what we needed. Since you didn't get what 1 wanted, don't even think about getting our Wang family's investment."
Si Fan patiently explained, "It's all because of that piece of trash, Yin Mo. You could have chosen anyone else back then, but you had to let that piece of trash Yin Mo do it. Back then, I warned you, but you insisted on choosing her. Now that everything has been messed up, it has nothing to do with me. You can only say that you misjudged people. As for the collaboration, you can change it to something else."
"Where is Yin Mo now?" Wang Ran asked.
Si Fan said, "She was chased out by the Yin family. Now, they're pestering me and refusing to leave."
He felt that Wang Ran liked him. In the past, Wang Ran was very dissatisfied with the fact that Yin Mo kept pestering him. She always thought of ways to please him and wanted to take Yin Mo's place in his heart for herself.
However, he had miscalculated this time.
Not only did Wang Ran show no sign of jealousy, but she even sneered and said, "In other words, she has no value at all now. In that case, there's nothing to talk about between us. Don't contact me again."
Listening to the sound of the phone being hung up, Si Fan's face instantly darkened. He looked at the black screen in disbelief. Wang Ran actually dared to hang up on him!
Si Fan was furious and tried to call back, but he realized that she had already blocked him.
The next second, a text message came. Si Fan opened it and saw that it was from Wang Ran.
The message was brief. She said that she was only sleeping with him because she wanted his body. The collaboration she had proposed back then was only because she wanted the Yin family's resources.
Since Si Fan and the Yin family no longer had anything to do with each other, there was no need for her to contact him anymore. In addition, Wang Ran said that Blue Fox was not worth her investment.
Si Fan had never been treated like this by a woman before. He raised his hand that was holding the phone and looked like he would smash it, but in the end, he controlled himself and smashed the teapot instead.
His important office information was inside his phone. It would be a pain if he broke it. Less fortunate was the top-quality clay teapot that broke after a few uses..

...

Chapter 463: Caught A Cold

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

lie did not expect this woman to be so heartless. How did that explain all the lovey words she said to him back then? Could it be that she was lying? And what did she mean by sleeping with him for his body? Who did she take him for?!

Si Fan was infuriated. He wanted to vent, but there was no one beside him.

He turned around and realized that even the butler had left. At this moment, he was alone in the living room.

It was all because of Yin Mo that he did not get the contract and lost another investor. Si Fan looked at Yin Mo's room angrily.

If it were not for the fact that Yin Mo's heart was still useful, he definitely would not keep such a woman at home. Si Fan walked to the second floor with his fists clenched, looking like he was going to pick a fight.

Blue Fox's condition was not very good. Since Yin Mo was a dead end, he could only take another path.

Fortunately, he still had Xintao's information and Mark. As long as he had them, he would never have to worry about Yin Xun growing.

As for Yin Mo, he wanted to teach her a lesson...

It started to rain outside. It seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. At the same time, there was lightning and thunder drowning out the noise.

Yin Xun, who was staying with Mary at the hotel, suddenly sneezed twice. Seeing this, Mary quickly walked to the side and poured a cup of hot water for Yin Xun.

"Did you catch a cold from the rain?" Mary asked with concern.

Unexpectedly, there was a thunderstorm tonight. The weather forecast only said that it was cloudy, so no one brought an umbrella. As expected, the weather forecast was not trustworthy. They might as well trust in an old man's cold legs. It might be more accurate than the weather forecast.

"I'm fine. I'm not that weak." Yin Xun took the water and moved to the window. Although it was dark outside, she could still see the occasional silver threads reflecting light outside.

The soundproofing of the window was very good. With the window closed, she could not hear the sounds outside at all. She could not see clearly outside either. Hence, Yin Xun could not tell if the rain had lessened or become heavier.

However, none of that was important.
She sat back on the sofa and looked across at Mark, who had been looking dejected and had kept his head hung low. She asked him about the kidnapping, and whether he remembered what the kidnappers looked like and where he was being held.
Mark did not even raise his head. No matter what Yin Xun asked, he only shook his head, looking frightened.
From the moment everyone left the scene, Mary had been comforting Mark, trying to get him to say something useful. However, Mark did not say anything in the end.
Apparently, it was not that he could not remember anything, but he could never see a thing. In any case, he did not know any information about this kidnapping. He did not even know how many people were involved.
Seeing this, Yin Xun could only give up asking Mark.
It seemed like Si Fan had taken good preventive measures. He did not leak anything. This way, even if she called the police, the authorities would not be able to find anything.
"President Yin, now that my younger brother has already been rescued, what should we do next?" Mary patted Mark's head sulkily before asking Yin Xun.
Yin Xun looked at Mark, who could barely open his eyes, and said, "Let your brother rest first."
Mary immediately understood what Yin Xun meant and nudged Mark. "Go on,
then. You really made me worry."
After hearing Mary's words, Mark stood up and walked to his room. Before he left, he took a deep look at Yin Xun with a complicated gaze.
In the end, he did not say anything. He walked into the bedroom and closed the door.
"Since your brother has been rescued, all our projects will be fully released tomorrow, including—Achoo!" Before she could finish, Yin Xun sneezed again, "...including Rhythm Short Video, which should be fully complete."
"Okay. But President Yin, you definitely have caught a cold. You have been sneezing a lot. Let me help you buy some medicine." Yin Xun was drenched in the rain today after trying to help her. She was sincerely worried.
Yin Xun waved her hand and rubbed her nose gently. Indeed, her head felt a little heavy, so she said, "It's fine. 1 can go myself. You and your brother should rest well. There are many things that we need you for tomorrow."
With that, she pushed Mary down as she tried to get up, indicating that she was fine. Then she opened the door and walked out.
They were in the city now, and they had already rescued Mark. There was nothing else to do, so Yin Xun asked the two bodyguards to go back first. Anyway, Fang Yao was with her, so there was no need to worry about any accidents..

...

Chapter 464: Taking Her Away
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were no luxurious hotels nearby, so Yin Xun simply found a small hotel that looked well-decorated to stay for the night.
Originally, she wanted Fang Yao to go back and the bodyguards to stay with her. However, Fang Yao insisted on staying too, so she did not continue to refuse.
However, she did not expect that the dignified young master of the Fang family, who usually stayed in six-star and seven-star hotels, would actually lower himself to stay in a small hotel with them.
When they passed by Fang Yao's room, Yin Xun stopped and looked for a while. The door to Fang Yao's room was tightly shut, and no sound could be heard from outside. He must be resting.
After staring for a few seconds, Yin Xun walked away.
If it was a big hotel, Yin Xun would only need to make a call and someone would send some medicine over. However, such a small hotel would not have such good service. There were few employees, and they had to take care of other customers. If she wanted to buy anything, she could only run errands herself.
Yin Xun borrowed an umbrella from the front desk and asked for the location of the pharmacy. Since it was not far, she opened the umbrella and walked out.
The rain had washed away the sweltering heat from before. Now, the cool air carried the fragrance of plants. Yin Xun took a few deep breaths and instantly felt the bogginess of her mind fade away.
Yin Xun followed the direction indicated by the receptionist and walked for nearly 20 minutes before arriving at her destination.
"You call this not far?" Yin Xun did not drive because she heard the receptionist say that it was very nearby and that it would only take a few minutes to walk there. If she had known that it was so far away, she would have driven.
When she first came out, she felt cool and comfortable, but after being outside for a long time, she began to feel cold again. She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and she felt the hair on her arms stand on end.
With a shudder, Yin Xun put away her umbrella and hurried into the building. She was finally warm.
The pharmacy was huge, but perhaps because it was late at night, there was only a young man in a white coat on duty.
The man was sitting inside and reading a book. He was so focused that he did not notice her coming in.
"Hello." Yin Xun greeted the man. The man slowly raised his head. When he saw Yin Xun, he showed no intention of getting up. He only asked indifferently, "What medicine do you need?"
Yin Xun rubbed her slightly sore nose. Perhaps because she had just been chilled to the bone again, her head was starting to feel a little dizzy again.
"Medicine to prevent colds. I think I might catch a cold." Actually, it was not just a possibility. It looked like she was certainly going to catch a cold.
The man frowned and slowly stood up. He walked to the medicine cabinet and handed Yin Xun two boxes of medicine. "The total of 38 yuan. Just take it according to the instructions."
This person felt a little unreliable. Yin Xun took the medicine box and looked at it, afraid that the pharmacist had taken the wrong medicine.
Seeing that the instructions were indeed for treating a cold, she was relieved and took out the money to pay.
Yin Xun did not pay attention to the man's appearance just now. When she handed the money to him, she saw that the man was quite beautiful. His eyes were slender and bright, like a young girl's. His eyelashes were pretty too. If this man wore a wig, he might be able to disguise himself as a girl.
"One hundred in cash, sixty-two in change for you." The man handed Yin Xun the change and left her alone. He returned to his chair, picked up the book, and continued reading.
Yin Xun looked at the change in her hand and felt that it was rather inconvenient to use cash. After Xintao was fully online, she wanted to create a payment collection code to collaborate with these merchants. With that, customers only needed to scan Xintao and they could pay directly without bringing cash.
Yes, this was a good idea. Indeed, the more she traveled, the more business opportunities she could see.
"Achoo..." Yin Xun turned around. Just as she was about to leave, she sneezed again. Her chest felt suffocated and her head became heavier and heavier. Stars even began to appear in front of her eyes, and her ears buzzed.
Her legs seemed to be out of her control. She tried to lift her legs and walk, but she felt like the world was spinning.
The man who was reading noticed that something was wrong with Yin Xun and asked, "Hey, are you alright?"
"I..." Before Yin Xun could finish speaking, she felt the world spin. Then, her body fell uncontrollably.
However, she did not fall straight down.
A pair of hands caught Yin Xun's falling body. It was Fang Yao, who had come to find Yin Xun. When he saw that Yin Xun had fainted, he directly picked Yin Xun up across his arms.
"Thank you. You can just settle her down inside. What do you want to buy?" The man thought that Fang Yao was also here to buy medicine. He let out a sigh of relief when Fang Yao caught Yin Xun.
Fang Yao glanced at the man indifferently and ignored him. He clutched Yin Xun and turned to leave.
"Do you know her? Are you going to take her away?" The man instantly retracted his nonchalant look and stared at Fang Yao warily..

...

Chapter 465: I'm Her Boyfriend

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The pharmacist thought that Fang Yao wanted to take advantage of Yin Xun's fainting and he rushed out to stop him.

Although he could not be bothered to get into trouble, Yin Xun fainted in the pharmacy. If anything happened, he would not be able to escape responsibility.

"I'm her boyfriend. She's sick. I'll take her to the hospital," Fang Yao explained with a frown.

"Do you have any evidence?" The man clearly did not believe him and still had no intention of letting Fang Yao go.

Fang Yao glanced at the man coldly and said in a deep voice, "She has a fever now. It's dangerous. If you're really worried, follow me. 1 don't have time to waste with you because of this."

With that, Fang Yao pushed the man away and carried Yin Xun to his car.

After gently placing Yin Xun inside the car, he raised his hand and touched Yin Xun's forehead. It was absolutely scalding. He did not expect her fever to be so serious. Fang Yao's gaze darkened as he turned around and immediately entered the driver's seat.

"Hey, wait for me. If you take her away from my shop, I have to follow you!" In just a short while, the man had already locked up the pharmacy. Then, he quickly opened the door and got into the car.

Fang Yao did not stop him, nor did he care to. Before the man could fully sit down, Fang Yao stepped on the accelerator and sped away.

Yin Xun did not know what had happened to her while she was unconscious. When she woke up, her head was still a little dizzy. When she opened her eyes, she was still thinking about things like who she was and where she was. It was as if her memory was a blur.

"You're awake. How do you feel?" It was a familiar voice.

"Fang Yao?" Yin Xun turned her head. When she saw the man's handsome face, she immediately remembered what was going on.

She actually fainted? How strange. She was just drenched a little. Was she that weak?

"My head is a little dizzy and my body is a bit heavy. Everything else is fine." Yin Xun wanted to sit up, but only then did she realize that she was on an IV drip. She looked up and looked around. It turned out that Fang Yao had brought her to the hospital.

She suddenly thought of something. She looked at Fang Yao and asked, "Oh right, 1 remember that I went out to buy medicine myself. How did you know where I was?"

Fang Yao reached out and touched Yin Xun's forehead, then his own. After confirming that Yin Xun's fever had subsided, he said, "Mary told me."

Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun reproachfully. "Why didn't you wake me up when you went out?"

Yin Xun laughed dryly and said, "I thought the pharmacy was very nearby. 1 didn't expect it to be so far away."

Looking at Yin Xun's expression, so certainly looked better than before. The flush of her face faded a little, and her lips were only a little red. Fang Yao finally felt relieved.

He glanced in the direction of the door and lowered his voice to say, "The man who sold you medicine is the son of the director of Morning Star Private Hospital. His mother is from the government. He doesn't know that I recognized him. I think he might be useful to you in the future."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the ward door.

Fang Yao and Yin Xun looked at each other and smiled. Then, they quickly acted that nothing had happened.

"Please come in," Yin Xun said.

The door opened. It was the man she had seen at the pharmacy.

The man was still wearing a white coat and holding some food in his hand. Before he entered, he glared at Fang Yao before walking in.

"How do you feel? If there's nothing else, I'll leave." The man's tone was filled with impatience. He did not even bother to look at Yin Xun.

Yin Xun smiled and thanked the man. "Thank you for helping me. By the way, what's your name? Why don't you give me your contact number so 1 can thank you in the future?"

"No need. You fainted in my shop. I'm only helping you because I don't want to be held responsible. Since the two of you actually know each other, 1'11 leave." After saying that, the man turned to look at Fang Yao and said in a strange tone, "You let your girlfriend go out to buy medicine alone in the middle of the night. You didn't even realize that your girlfriend has a high fever, and it's raining. You're less attentive to your girlfriend than 1 am to my cat."

The man indeed did not want Yin Xun to thank him. After saying that, he left.

Yin Xun did not force him to stay. Now that she knew where the man worked, thanking him would be easy. She could just visit him directly after she was discharged from the hospital.

However... What did he just say? Girlfriend?

The man had already gone out and even closed the door considerately. Yin Xun raised her eyebrows and looked at Fang Yao, her eyes filled with curiosity. "Girlfriend? What did he mean?"

"Ahem..." Fang Yao's expression was unnatural as he coughed dryly..

...

Chapter 466: Unspoken Understanding

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Yao explained, "He was more responsible than 1 thought. If 1 hadn't said that, he wouldn't have let me drive you away." In fact, his words were rather selfish.

"You can use this excuse in front of others and pretend I was taking advantage of you. But don't say that in front of your family, or I will have to pay a sky-high compensation." Thinking of the contract she had signed with Lin Chan, Yin Xun's heart stung. She could not allow some imaginary incident to make a mess of things.

"Yin Xun," Fang Yao called her softly.

"Yes?"

"That contract is actually..." Fang Yao stared at Yin Xun intently.

However, before he could finish, Yin Xun suddenly interrupted him. "By the way, we saved Mary's little brother. Now is the time when Blue Fox is at its lowest. Everything is ready. We can officially let Xintao go online tomorrow."

Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao guiltily. She did not know what was really going on just now, but she suddenly had an idea. She did not want Fang Yao to continue speaking, so she interrupted him.

There were some things that would have the opposite effect if she never got a clear answer. Now was not a good time. At the very least, she did not know what she was thinking now. Perhaps she could delay it.

Faced with Fang Yao's probing gaze, Yin Xun's face suddenly turned red. Then, she quickly lowered her head. Perhaps she was thinking too much. Thinking of this, she felt slightly better.

Fang Yao stared at her for a moment with a solemn expression. After a while, he suddenly smiled. He realized that Yin Xun was deliberately interrupting him, so he stopped talking and followed Yin Xun's words. "I'm looking forward to the grand occasion when Xintao comes online."

Then, he reached out and touched Yin Xun's forehead. With a smile in his eyes, he asked, "Your fever has clearly subsided. Why is your face still red? Could it be that you have a fever again?"

Upon hearing Fang Yao's words, Yin Xun's face turned even redder.

At this moment, she could feel that her forehead was at normal temperature, but her cheeks were flushed hot.

The two of them tacitly did not say anything else after that. The ward fell silent for a moment. Not long after, Yin Xun's eyelids became heavy again.

Although her fever had subsided, she was still dizzy from the cold. The cold medicine she had taken also made her drowsy. Gradually, she could not resist her sleepiness.

"Go back and rest. The nurse will watch over me. 1'11 be able to go back tomorrow." Yin Xun asked Fang Yao to go back and rest.

Fang Yao nodded. He gave no indication of agreeing or refusing. Instead, he helped Yin Xun adjust her blanket. "Go to sleep first. 1'11 talk to you later."

Yin Xun could no longer resist the effects of the medicine. She finally closed her eyes and fell asleep again. Fang Yao sat by the bed and looked at Yin Xun's sleeping appearance. He frowned slightly. It seemed like he had to go home now

Just as he was thinking about something, a phone suddenly rang. It sounded especially loud in the quiet ward.

It was Yin Xun's phone that was placed above her head. Fang Yao glanced at it and saw the caller ID. It was Mary.

He did not need to answer to know why the other party was calling. He glanced at Yin Xun, who was sleeping soundly, and picked up the phone.

Before Mary could speak, Fang Yao introduced himself. "It's Fang Yao."

"...President Fang, where is President Yin?" Mary was audibly stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone before she asked the question carefully.

Fang Yao said calmly, "She fainted from a fever. 1 sent her to the hospital and she's asleep now. She should be discharged tomorrow morning."

"All, she fainted. Then I..." Fang Yao knew that she was worried about Yin Xun, but was unsure if she should come over.

Fang Yao answered her unspoken question. "You don't have to come over. I'll bring her back tomorrow."

Mary smiled and thanked him. "Thank you, President Fang. When President Yin wakes up, I will contact her."

After hanging up, Fang Yao placed the phone back beside Yin Xun.

After staring at Yin Xun for a while, he took out his phone and walked out of the ward.

It was already the next morning by the time Yin Xun woke up. She opened her eyes and looked around the room. Although the curtains were drawn, the sunlight still shone in. It was rather bright.

At this moment, there was no one else in the ward other than her. She did not know when Fang Yao had left. However, there were a few fast food boxes on the table beside her. Yin Xun calmed herself down and stood up to walk over.

There was a card on the boxes. It looked like it was written by Fang Yao. He said that he had something to do and had to leave first. He asked Yin Xun to call him if there was anything..

...

Chapter 467: Worried of Scaring You

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yin Xun picked up the food on the table. It was still warm; it seemed that Fang Yao had just left.

Could it be that Fang Yao had been watching over her all night? Yin Xun was a little touched.

After eating, Yin Xun tidied herself up and left the hospital. She took a taxi to Xintao.

Today was a very important day. Now, there was nothing to worry about between her and Si Fan. The real business war had begun.

Arriving at the company, Yin Xun changed her clothes and went to look for Mi Jin.

"How are the preparations for Xintao going?" Yin Xun asked straightforwardly when she saw Mi Jin.

Mi Jin turned the computer to the page related to Blue Fox and said, "We can go online at any time. Before this, we've already tested the app on various models of phones. Even the old models won't be left behind. We can be sure that there are basically no problems. The older ones won't have the same problem as Blue Fox back then."

Then, he pointed at the computer screen and gestured for Yin Xun to take a look. "Recently, because of Blue Fox's frequent accidents, the investors have all withdrawn their investments. Blue Fox is isolated and helpless. However, I don't know what Si Fan is thinking. He's lacking urgency after such a big incident. He hasn't even done anything."

Over the past few days, Mi Jin had been observing Blue Fox's movements. He realized that Si Fan was strangely quiet. This was not his style at all. He could not help but worry that Si Fan was holding back some big move.

Yin Xun did not care. She said calmly, "Si Fan thought that by kidnapping Mary's brother, he would be able to obtain internal information about Xintao. He wanted to use the information to deal with me, but he did not know that 1 already saw through it. The information he got was all fake."

"I knew it." Mi Jin nodded. He really did plan something against Yin Xun.

He suddenly came back to his senses and yelped in surprise, "What?! Si Fan kidnapped Mary's brother?!"

Yin Xun nodded and said calmly, "That's right. Mary and I just saved her brother last night, so everything is fine now. We can go online normally."

Mi Jin,"..."

No wonder he had felt that Mary was a little abnormal these past few days. So, this was what had happened.

Kidnapping and extortion were illegal acts. Moreover, he knew Si Fan's methods and how ruthless he was. He just did not expect Yin Xun to talk about it like they were having a casual meal.

"No wonder you and Mary have been acting abnormally recently, but why didn't you tell me about this? Maybe I could have helped." Mi Jin's tone was a little hurt. He and Si Fan were enemies, so he would definitely help Yin Xun and Mary wholeheartedly.

Yin Xun looked Mi Jin up and down, then patted his shoulder gently and comforted him. "We're just worried about scaring you."

Mi Jin, "...Thank you, President Yin, for your concern."

The excuse was too perfunctory. It would be better to say that she was afraid that he would ruin things if he messed up.

Since the matter had been resolved, Yin Xun did not have to worry about it affecting their plans. Besides, Mi Jin was also the backbone of the company and had the right to know. Hence, she briefly told Mi Jin about what happened. When Mi Jin heard the story, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He looked like he wanted to fight Si Fan right now.

Yin Xun straightened her expression and said to Mi Jin, "So, we have to take this opportunity to suppress Si Fan. Isn't he relying on the fact that he has Xintao's secrets to act so recklessly? Then let's take away his last trump card."

Then, Yin Xun smiled and said, "In a while, inform the marketing and operations departments. Everyone, work hard for another day. After we settle this matter, I'll give everyone a break and everyone can get some rest."

"Yes!" Mi Jin rubbed his palms together. He could not wait anymore.

Xintao had been warming up for so long. Everyone had been looking forward to it. For a while, Blue Fox was just their substitute. After all, Xintao had received a lot of good reviews when Zhenku first used the software.

Everyone wanted to try it, but they could not because of the cell phone restrictions. When they heard that Xintao had upgraded again and could be downloaded by other cell phone brands, they began to download and try it out.

Naturally, there was no lack of sales at this time. Before Yin Xun went online, she bought a group of fake reviewers and promoted the merits of Xintao everywhere. Therefore, as soon as Xintao went online in the app store, the number of downloads skyrocketed.

With such a huge commotion, Blue Fox's marketing department was alerted as soon as they went online.

The marketing manager took the information to Cheng She in fear. At this moment, Cheng She was having a headache because Blue Fox could not get new investments. It was fine if that was all, but even the old investors who had worked with them for so long had withdrawn their investments..

Chapter 468: Xintao Is Online

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Si Fan had given him full authority to handle this matter. If he could not resolve it now, he could already foresee how he would end up.

Especially after Si Fan said that he wanted to dispatch him as a spy, Cheng She even suspected that Si Fan wanted to use this as an excuse to kill him off.

He was already afraid. When he heard the marketing minister's report, Cheng She wanted to cry.

Back then, Si Fan had sworn that Xintao would not go online. Yin Xun would not dare to go against him and they did not have to worry. In the end, not only was Xintao online now, but its popularity was also ridiculously high.

It was even more infuriating seeing those users helping to promote Xintao. [Xintao's main focus is to serve customers. It does not accept fraud, bugs, and biased selection. Customers are God. Isn't this kind of service and quality just better than Blue Fox?]

Such propaganda came one after another. It was obvious that Xintao had hired paid posters. However, it was understandable. Back then, Blue Fox had also used this method to snatch Xintao's popularity.

At the Blue Fox office, Cheng She looked at the various names the netizens had come up with in order to avoid getting a lawsuit. They were clearly slandering Blue Fox, but because they did not say it explicitly, even if some of the rumors were spread, there was nothing to do about it.

The customers who had suffered a loss because of Blue Fox's activities also downloaded Xintao. In order to get petty revenge, they gave Blue Fox a bad review and gave Xintao a five-star review.

Seeing that things were getting more and more out of hand, Cheng She had no choice but to look for Si Fan.

When he arrived at the Si residence, the servants did not stop him. They only kindly told him that Si Fan was sleeping and then left for work.

Cheng She knew Si Fan's temper, but the matter had already reached a stage where he could not control it himself. He could only brace himself and barge into Si Fan's bedroom to wake him up.

When Cheng She first came in, Si Fan was in a deep sleep. Because of Yin Mo's incident last night, Si Fan had not been able to sleep well last night. He had somehow been deceived by Yin Mo and even threatened by her.

In the end, he was so angry that he went to beat Yin Mo up to vent his anger. He finally felt better when he saw Yin Mo shivering in a corner. It was not until morning that he finally felt sleepy and tried to sleep for a while. However, not long after he lay down, he was woken up by Cheng She.

"You better have something really important to tell me." Si Fan sat up in bed with his eyes half open. No one had dared to barge into his room and wake him up.

Under his murderous gaze, Cheng She told him everything in one breath.

"Trash, didn't 1 tell you to keep an eye on Xintao? Why did you only tell me after such a big thing happened?!" Si Fan immediately flew into a rage. He picked up a vase at the side and threw it at Cheng She.

Cheng She was already mentally prepared. He skillfully dodged to the side and the vase smashed into the wall behind him. The fragments bounced back onto Cheng Shi, but he did not feel anything.

"President Si, you were the one who said that we did not have to worry about Xintao..." Cheng She felt that Si Fan's stance changed too quickly. He felt aggrieved and could not help but argue softly.

Unexpectedly, Si Fan did not bother to listen to his explanation at all. He hissed, "Not worrying about it is not the same as not keeping an eye on them! Shut up, trash. Xintao is a big company. There should definitely be a notice before it goes online. How could you not know? You only informed me after it went online. Do you know how much you've delayed?!"

Cheng She lowered his head and did not say anything. He cursed in his heart. Xintao had indeed come online without warning. Whether it was the app store or Xintao's own website, there was no announcement. It was silent and no one saw it coming.

Fortunately, although Si Fan was angry, he knew that solving the problem was the most important. As he cursed, he also asked Cheng She to wait for him outside. He went to change his clothes.

Cheng She could not wait to get as far away from Si Fan as possible. When he heard Si Fan telling him to leave, he left without another word.

However, without Si Fan's direct orders, he did not dare to leave the house without permission. He could only go to the living room and sit on the sofa to wait for Si Fan.

When Si Fan saw that Cheng She had left the room, he changed his clothes and picked up his phone to call Mary. He did not forget to turn on the voice changer.

He was anxious and puzzled at the same time. Yin Xun clearly knew that he had something on her, so why did she still dare to go online? Did she really think that he would let her off because of Yin Mo?

There was also Mary. Her brother was clearly in his hands, but she did not report such a big matter to him in advance. It seemed that she did not care about her brother anymore..

...

Chapter 469: Thank Si Xia For Me

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Si Fan was already frustrated, and now he was even more furious.

As soon as the call went through, Si Fan did not wait for the other party to speak and directly cursed. "Mary, how dare you disobey me! Don't you care about your brother's life anymore?!"

"What do you mean?" Mary's voice was surprisingly calm. She was a completely different person from her usual flustered self.

However, at this moment, Si Fan was so angry that he did not notice.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Back then, 1 asked you to keep an eye on Xintao. If there's anything, you have to report it to me immediately. But today, Xintao went online. Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Oh, so that's what happened. I'm sorry, 1 didn't know. 1 didn't go to the office today. I was out with my brother." Mary apologized perfunctorily.

Si Fan almost exploded at Mary's words. He was about to scold her when he suddenly realized who Mary was talking about. Who was with her? Her brother?

"Your younger brother is in my hands. Which younger brother is with you?" Si Fan asked curiously.

Mary smiled and said, "Si Fan, stop pretending. I know you captured my brother and forced me to do something unethical. However, you can't threaten me now. Don't you know that my brother is no longer in your hands? Oh right, help me thank your sister for rescuing my brother from you."

With that, Mary ignored Si Fan's reaction and hung up.

Si Xia let Mark go? How was that possible? Si Xia did not even know that he kidnapped Mark. If he asked Si Xia now, and it turned out to be a lie, Si Xia would find out for real.

Maybe Mary was trying to trick him. He did not know what she was up to, but if she was lying, he was going to make her pay.

This time, Si Fan's first reaction was not to be angry. Instead, he immediately called Chi Bo to confirm the news.

There was another long wait. Listening to the beeping sound, Si Fan became more and more irritated until he could no longer suppress his anger.

He picked up the lamp beside him and smashed it on the ground. The moment the glass lamp touched the ground, it shattered into many pieces, and glass shards scattered everywhere.

Finally, at the last moment, Chi Bo picked up the phone.

"Boss, why are you calling so early in the morning? What's the matter?" Chi

Bo's trembling voice came from the other end of the phone.

Si Fan asked in a deep voice, "Where's Mark?"

There was silence on the other end of the line. If Si Fan could not hear the sound of breathing, he would have thought that the call had been hung up again.

"Speak!" Si Fan urged angrily.

"Boss, I'm sorry!" Chi Bo's voice sounded like he was about to cry. "Well, the Young Miss came yesterday and took Mark away..."

Following that, Chi Bo told Si Fan about how Si Xia had taken Mark away. Si Fan was so angry that the veins on his forehead were bulging.

This time, he finally could not hold it in anymore and threw the phone to the ground. The phone did not shatter, but it was covered in cracks and the screen was not lit up anymore.

Si Fan threw open the door angrily. At this moment, Cheng She was sitting on the sofa in the hall on the second floor. When he saw Si Fan come out, he stood up and greeted him. "President Si, will we..."

However, Si Fan ignored him and walked straight to Si Xia's room.

Based on Cheng She's understanding of Si Fan, he knew that Si Fan's anger had already reached its peak. He silently put down his hand and sat back down quietly.

He did not know who had provoked Si Fan this time. It was terrifying.

When he passed by Yin Mo's room, Yin Mo unexpectedly opened the door and walked out. Si Fan was caught off guard and the two of them bumped into each other.

"Fan, why are you..."

When Yin Mo saw that the person who bumped into her was Si Fan, a smile immediately appeared on her bruised face. She happily called out to Si Fan.

However, before she could finish speaking, Si Fan pushed her away. "Get lost!"

Yin Mo squealed and stumbled backward, hitting the meter-tall vase behind her.

The vase was made of porcelain and shattered all over the floor. Yin Mo happened to be in the middle of the broken pieces.

She was currently wearing a silk nightdress. The shards pierced through her pajamas and into her flesh, instantly causing her to bleed. However, Si Fan acted as though he did not see it and continued to walk past her toward Si Xia's room.

Cheng She, on the other hand, was scared out of his wits when he saw the scene. He saw that Yin Mo had fallen into the debris and had lost a lot of blood. He was afraid that she would die, so he wanted to help her up. However, Yin Mo was wearing silk pajamas. He felt that it was inappropriate for a man like him to go over, so he could only walk downstairs and find a random maid to help take care of Yin Mo..

...

Chapter 470: Bring Yin Mo To The Hospital

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After that, Cheng She hurriedly left the villa and went to continue waiting for Si Fan.

Looking at Si Fan's angry expression just now, he was really worried that something else would happen later. In order not to attract trouble, it was better to stay away from the fire.

Si Fan did not care about what happened with Yin Mo at all. He walked to Si Xia's room and kicked the door open.

Si Xia was putting on makeup at the moment and was startled when she heard the sound. Her hand that was applying lipstick trembled, and the lipstick instantly smudged her face.

She turned around angrily to see who was the bold intruder. When she turned around, she met Si Fan's eyes that were filled with anger.

"Brother, why didn't you knock? You even kicked the door open. You scared me. What happened? Why are you so angry? Did that b*tch Yin Mo upset you again? 1 told you, people like her can't just stay at home." Si Xia walked toward Si Fan with a smile on her face.

"Were you the one who released Mark?" Although Si Fan was more furious than ever, he still suppressed his temper and asked Si Xia.

When Si Xia heard that Si Fan had come to look for her because of Mark, her expression changed. In the next second, she continued to smile and said, "Brother, regarding Mark, let me explain..."

"So, you were the one who did it, you crappy woman!" When he heard Si Xia's words, Si Fan immediately confirmed that she was the one who did it. He could not control his temper anymore.

Smack!

When Si Xia reached out to grab his arm, he raised his hand and slapped Si Xia in the face.

"Don't call me Brother anymore, 1 don't have a younger sister like you!" After Si Fan was done, he kicked Si Xia in the stomach.

At this moment, he had completely lost his rationality. He had considered many possibilities, but he did not expect that the person who stabbed him in the back would be his sister.

"All..." Si Xia's body was already weak. Even though Si Fan did not use his full strength with this kick, it was still detrimental to her. She was kicked straight to the ground and her face instantly lost all color. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Si Xia clutched her stomach and curled up on the ground, moaning incessantly.

Hearing Si Xia's moans, Si Fan instantly sobered up a little. He could hit anyone, but the line was drawn with Si Xia. Si Xia's body had just recovered. If something happened to her, then he...

At the thought of this, Si Fan was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. He squatted down in self-reproach and gently helped Si Xia up. "Xiaxia, are you alright?"

"It hurts. It feels terrible. 1 can't breathe..." Si Xia's face was pale with a tinge of green. Her eyes were half-opened. It took her great effort to say these few words before she fainted the next moment.

"Xiaxia, don't scare me!" Seeing that Si Xia had lost consciousness, Si Fan's immediately looked for his phone and call for an ambulance. Then, he remembered that he had just thrown his phone to the ground.

He had no choice but to carry Si Xia and run outside. As he ran, he shouted, "Somebody, call an ambulance!"

At this moment, the door to Yin Mo's room was open. She sat on the bed and let the maid bandage her wound. When she heard Si Fan's shout, she immediately got up and rushed out, not even caring about her wound.

"Fan, what happened to Xiaxia?" Yin Mo rushed to Si Fan's side.

"Get lost! It's all because of you, Yin Mo. Let me tell you, if anything happens to Xiaxia, don't even think about living anymore! Didn't you say you were willing to give your heart to Xiaxia for me? Alright, just stay at home and be my organ supply!" After saying that, he glanced at Yin Mo coldly and carried Si Xia out.

Yin Mo looked at Si Fan's flustered back and suddenly recalled what Xing Cheng had said to her back then.

"Si Fan and Si Xia aren't related by blood. Do you think they're just ordinary siblings?"

"Si Fan doesn't love you. To him, you're just a tool to save his sister. You're a stepping stone in his career."

All kinds of words from the past kept replaying in her mind. Coupled with what Si Fan had done just now, Yin Mo bit her lips so hard that blood started dripping without her realizing it.

She had chosen this path herself. Since Si Fan wanted it, she would satisfy him.

Yin Mo watched as Si Fan's back disappeared before her eyes. She clenched her fists and slowly turned around, walking back to her room.

Si Fan carried Si Xia and strode into the courtyard. Cheng She was leaning against the door with his head lowered. When he heard the commotion, he looked up and saw Si Fan carrying the unconscious Si Xia. He hurriedly went forward and asked, "President Si, what happened to Second Miss?"

Si Fan did not answer. Instead, he ordered Cheng She coldly, "Go and bring Yin Mo to the hospital with me.."
