The more Shi Nian spoke, the angrier he beca. John’s hair stood on end as he stared at Shi Nian in shock at what he’d heard, whereas Xi Cheng was dumbfounded.

Shi Nian went on, “Auntie Han Yuan regained consciousness long ago; she was even able to speak. In order to escape, she used the ti when Lin Yu wasn’t around to exercise hard every day. You must’ve been to the hospital during that period of ti, so why did she never ask for your help?”

“It’s because she knows you won’t be of any help! You believe in Lin Yu, believe in Gu Man, and you believe in all the people you shouldn’t! Yet you didn’t believe the counsel Liang Han and I gave you!”

“We can forgive you for speaking without thought, but aren’t you afraid Ye Kun and Liang Han will be sad? Do you think you deserve to have Ye Tang and Liang Han’s big brothers go through the trouble of bailing you and the Xi Corporation out?” Shi Nian clenched his fists tightly as he finished his tirade, wanting nothing more than to punch Xi Cheng’s face into a pulp. ‘What a moron!’ he inwardly fud.

“How can this be? How could this possibly happen? I can’t believe it! Lin Yu, she—she…” Xi Cheng was at first shocked, and then furious. He shouted at John, asking about Lin Yu’s whereabouts. “Where is she?”

John dazedly shook his head. “I don’t know!” Xi Cheng turned towards Shi Nian.

“I don’t know, either. This is your family’s private matter,” Shi Nian said coldly. He turned around to walk out but thinking about it, he couldn’t bear to see his best friend fall to such a state, so he stopped to say to Xi Cheng, “I would straighten out matters at ho and outside and sort out the people around you if I were you. You’re lucky to have people like John and Dawn helping you.”

In the end, Shi Nian didn’t promise anything. It would be useless even if the three of them supported him if Xi Cheng didn’t stand on his own feet—they couldn’t help him forever!

“Well done,” Lan Long languidly said to an exhilarated Chen Tao while holding a glass of wine.

Chen Tao quickly composed himself and respectfully replied, “Everything went so smoothly thanks to your arrangent, Young Master. I can imagine the pandemonium the Xi Corporation is in right now.”

The butler standing on the side, Mr Lou, inford them, “I heard Shi Nian went to the Xi Corporation’s headquarters early in the morning.”

Lan Long’s face darkened. “That man is everywhere! This Shi Nian is truly a botherso extra.”

Miss Hong, who had been wiping her dagger with a soft cloth in the corner, asked, “I can have a go at Xiang Yang now, right?”

Lan Long didn’t say anything. Mr. Lou glanced at her, indicating for her to shut up on the matter.

Lan Long took a sip of his wine before giving his orders. “Chen Tao, use those five companies from Xi Cheng to dismantle the Xi Corporation as fast as possible. Infiltrate the other great families while you’re at it, and give them a taste of our thods. Hit them where it hurts and make them suffer physically and ntally! A quick death would be too easy on them!”

Chen Tao hurriedly responded, “Understood, sir. Then I’ll head back first.” Lan Long nodded, and Chen Tao quickly went out to do his task.

Mr. Lou remarked, “Gu Man did a good job this ti, stalling Xi Cheng for so long. She’s quite obedient and doesn’t act on her own. In this aspect, she’s much better than Shi Gao.”

Lan Long swirled his wine glass and uttered slowly, “Mr. Lou, you don’t understand won. It isn’t that Gu Man is obedient to us. She did it for Xi Cheng.”

“Naturally, she’ll obey us as you put Xi Cheng in your list of conditions. She’ll agree even if you ask her to die for Xi Cheng, and think herself noble for doing so for love. An idiot like that can only be used against one person, she’s useless for anything else.”

Mr. Lou carefully thought over Lan Long’s words. Lan Long said, “Shi Gao has been making good progress in training the newcors Yun Liu sent over. Tell her to continue brainwashing them, pick out the outstanding ones, and have them start carrying out missions. We have to test them out to know which ones are truly useful and which ones are trash.”

“Yes, Young Master!” Mr. Lou replied.

Lan Long frowned. “Why can’t we get in touch with Lin Yu all of a sudden?”

Mr. Lou stated, “That woman is too cunning and full of sches, always seeking to use us but holding out on us at the sa ti. Who knows what she’s up to this ti? Young Master, I don’t think it’s necessary to keep her around after we take down the Xi Corporation, right? That woman will only be trouble for us.”

Lan Long chuckled, “There’s no need for us to do anything. Soone else will take care of her! I don’t like smartass won like her who always think n and the world can be controlled by them.”

Mr. Lou laughed. Miss Hong put away her dagger, walked over, and asked impatiently, “Why can’t I have a go at Xiang Yang?”

Lan Long’s smile faded. “I never said you can’t, but can you even get close to her? You know the type of person Shi Ke is and the power he holds. He’s already on alert and has Xiang Yang protected tighter than a drum. How do you plan to put a move on her?”
