Chapter 247: Chapter 245: Is There Soone Mr. Qi Cares About in the House? Chapter 247: Chapter 245: Is There Soone Mr. Qi Cares About in the House? With the approach of those few boats, Shen Yan could clearly feel people standing at the edge of the vessel tensing their bodies, vigilantly watching the incoming ships.
Shen Yan let down the curtain and walked toward the foredeck.
Qi Si stepped onto the boat with large strides, the sea breeze flipping the hem of his coat and tossing his short black hair back, exposing his cold, handso features.
His eyes were always dark and profound, carrying an awe-inspiring presence.
At the mont, an invisible sharp and brisk aura emanated from him.
“Are the business partners here to negotiate?” Shen Yan asked.
Qi Si didn’t answer her but called over the bodyguard nad Chen Ben to protect Shen Yan: “Take her ashore.”
Chen Ben nodded gravely and stood by Shen Yan’s side: “Madam, please follow .”
“Mr. Qi…”
“Go ahead.”
Qi Si looked at her, his gaze deep.
Shen Yan glanced at the ships drawing near and, without opposing his wish, followed Chen Ben ashore and toward a house.
She was then escorted by two more bodyguards.
With only a few n to begin with, Qi Si had now dispatched three to protect her, a sure sign the visitors bore ill will.
Shen Yan stopped, turning to the two who caught up: “One is enough for here, Mr. Qi needs you more by his side.”
“Mr. Qi ordered us to protect the madam,” one of the n firmly stated.
Shen Yan: “I will be in a safe place and don’t need too many people. You can’t bear the consequences if sothing happens to Mr. Qi. Return to his side, where you’re more needed.”
Seeing Shen Yan’s firm deanor, they reluctantly returned.
Understanding their difficulty, Shen Yan took out her phone and sent Qi Si a ssage.
She told him she only needed one person.
The island was small, and even after Shen Yan entered the house and stood on the second floor, she could still see so activity at the dock ahead.
Chen Ben stood guard behind her, alert, while Shen Yan watched the front, seeing Qi Si and the others talking on the shore with what seed to be a tense atmosphere.
The other party appeared both nurous and formidable.
Despite this, Qi Si single-handedly held his ground, his deanor icily suppressing the other side.
Shen Yan didn’t know what sensitive topic was broached, but she saw those people suddenly draw out their weapons, pointing them at Qi Si.
The air was fraught with a feeling of swords drawn and bows bent!
Shen Yan’s brows furrowed deeply.
In an instant, Qi Si’s n acted swiftly, disarming their opponents and pressing the weapons back against the heads of those in charge.
The atmosphere beca repressive and tense once again.
Shen Yan watched the whole scene, her heart in her throat.
The fact that these people could bring such equipnt onto the island indicated there were backers here.
“What’s that noise?” Shen Yan sharply turned to look behind her.
Chen Ben, vigilant throughout, hadn’t heard any out-of-place sounds.
Seeing Shen Yan’s uneasy expression, he quickly passed through the rooms behind the second floor, opened the window, and looked out, his face imdiately changing color!
Shen Yan saw the situation out at sea behind them, too.
More boats were approaching.
Friend or foe was unknown.
If these newcors were coordinating a pincer move with the first group, it ant they harbored deadly intentions!
For business competition to reach this point was excessive.
“Madam! You mustn’t go.”
As Shen Yan moved to descend the stairs, Chen Ben imdiately blocked her.
Shen Yan gave him a look and took out her phone to ssage Qi Si.
But with Qi Si in a standoff, he had no chance to check his phone.
Shen Yan walked to the small balcony behind the window, fixating on the rapidly approaching boats on the sea.
“These aren’t our people.”
As they got closer, Chen Ben’s expression also darkened significantly.
The dock behind the house was very near.
Seeing about a dozen people disembark with an air of fierce banditry, more nacing than the group before, they seed not to be trifled with!
Upon landing, one of them looked up and saw Shen Yan.
It was already a step too late when Chen Ben tried to pull Shen Yan back.
Qi Si, who was up ahead, also heard the commotion behind him and, without caring about the conversation at hand, turned and strode quickly toward the direction where Shen Yan was, causing the man he was tense with to be taken aback.
“Mr. Qi, we haven’t finished our discussion, you…”
Qi Si turned back coldly, staring at the man with a piercing gaze, “You sent soone else?”
The man paused, as if realizing sothing, then suddenly broke into an overbearing laugh, “Mr. Qi, those aren’t my n, but they also an to invite Mr. Qi over for a big business deal! Is there soone in that house that Mr. Qi cares about?”
The man with the scorpion tattoo laughed even more joyously, watching Qi Si with the expression of soone enjoying a show.
Qi Si looked at him with a gaze devoid of any emotion a human should have.
The scorpion-man’s smile stiffened.
“The business with Wumo, I rember telling you not to get involved.”
“…Mr. Qi, tis have changed. There’s no benefit to doing legitimate business with your kind on our side. The things Wumo promised , they are what I’ve been after my entire life, Mr. Qi, water flows downwards, people strive upwards, no one is at fault.”
Although the scorpion-man’s words were steady, his gaze flickered and he didn’t dare et Qi Si’s eyes.
Qi Si stood still, signaling to his own people with a hand gesture.
Out of fewer than ten bodyguards, six moved forward.
With Qi Si standing in front, the scorpion-man dared not act rashly.
The scorpion-man squinted his eyes, watching the six bodyguards quickly move past, then refocused on the man before him with a sowhat complex look.
Who could it be, that was so important to Qi Si?
It seed like he had found a weakness of Qi Si, and the scorpion-man felt sowhat agitated inside.
The scorpion-man stared intently at the small, two-story house, trying to see who would co out from inside.
As a muffled explosion ca from the front and the house obstructed the view, he could only hear, but not see the people.
It was unclear what the situation was.
Qi Si was quietly waiting for the outco.
On the surface, he appeared excessively calm, but only he knew how anxious he was deep inside.
As ti ticked by, suddenly, the sound of engines ca from the sea.
The scorpion-man turned to look, and saw speedboats rushing in from every direction.
On board were all n dressed in suits.
The scorpion-man took a deep breath.
They were Qi Si’s people!
With Qi Si’s people arriving, everything the scorpion-man had done was gone to waste.
The scorpion-man’s face darkened.
“Mr. Qi, if our deal can’t proceed today, let’s leave it at that.”
Let Wumo’s n be Wumo’s problem.
He didn’t want to have a tough confrontation with Mr. Qi.
“Sang Ming.”
Qi Si called out the man’s na.
Sang Ming stiffened abruptly, “Mr. Qi, do you intend to stop ?”
“Bang!”
The assistant standing beside Qi Si seed to have received so instruction and suddenly put his strength into a strike, hitting Sang Ming hard in the face, instantly drawing blood.
The n around Sang Ming imdiately raised their weapons at them.
The assistant, with a few flying kicks, neatly and briskly knocked the weapons from their hands.
As the assistant made his move, the others followed suit.
The n who just ca ashore in suits and leather shoes, acted fiercely without a word.
Sang Ming, clutching the wound on his head, cursed in the dirty language of the North.
Qi Si’s pace quickened as he walked toward Shen Yan.
Shen Yan, protected by Chen Ben, moved back, as Qi Si’s n swiftly ended the fight upon arrival.
“Mr. Qi!”
Shen Yan stood there, looking at the man who was quickly approaching her.
“Are you hurt?” Qi Si’s eyes hastily scanned her, assessing her condition.
Shen Yan shook her head, pointing behind her, “They went all out…”
Qi Si stared at Shen Yan for a long mont, then said, “Just think of this as a movie set.”
Shen Yan was taken aback!
Qi Si was worried she’d be frightened and wanted her to deceive herself with such a crude lie.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have been scared to death in such a scene.
And in the aftermath, they would have been left with psychological scars.
