"Yuhan, you have to stand up for Junyan and ! Jian Xi had soone almost beat us to death, and they even took indecent photos of us!"
Jiang Qing burst into tears as soon as she entered.
Si Yuhuan, accustod to her tears, remained unmoved, his gaze shifting to Si Junyan.
"Big Brother, it’s true! Today was my first day. I was planning with Sister Qing to pick a place and treat our departnt colleagues to a al, to build so camaraderie and make future work smoother. Who knew we’d run into Jian Xi being intimate with Zhou Yan? I just said a few words about her being disloyal to you, and she ordered her people to attack us! We were almost crippled."
He had the doctor fabricate a dical report, making the injuries seem as severe as possible, even claiming damage to his internal organs.
If it weren’t for the threat of those indecent photos, I would have taken this to court and sued that bitch Jian Xi until she dropped dead!
Si Yuhuan glanced at the dical report, then looked up at the two of them.
"She was having a al with Zhou Yan?"
Jiang Qing ground her teeth in anger. Can’t he focus on what’s important? The main point is that we were injured and need him to get revenge for us!
With a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, she asked, "Yuhan, she’s acting so lawlessly now. Don’t you think you should teach her a lesson?"
Si Yuhuan said nothing. A lesson? He would certainly teach her one, but how he chose to do it was not for others to dictate.
After Si Junyan left, he couldn’t help but ask Jiang Qing, "Do you think Big Brother will stand up for us?"
"The two of us combined probably don’t an as much to him as Jian Xi’s little finger. Stop dreaming."
After Jiang Qing said this, she clearly saw a flicker of viciousness in Si Junyan’s eyes.
Jian Xi, if I can’t deal with you, soone else will.
Upon returning, Si Junyan imdiately found his subordinates. "Arrange for so local thugs. Wait until Jian Xi’s bodyguards aren’t around, then give her a savage beating for ."
If those internet celebrities hadn’t gone abroad, I’d have them beaten up too. As for that damn girl Wan Yu, I’ll find a chance to deal with her slowly.
He gave his accomplice a check for one million yuan.
It would be even better if they could discreetly cause Jian Xi to miscarry her child.
「It was Sunday.」
Jian Xi had just woken up when she received a call from an unknown number. "Hello, who is this?"
Her voice, muffled and sleepy like a little kitten’s, was adorable in its grogginess.
Hearing it, a fire ignited in Fu Shengyuan’s lower abdon.
This woman is truly a siren.
"If you’re awake, co on down. I’m downstairs from your apartnt," Fu Shengyuan said with a soft laugh, his tone laced with what sounded like doting tenderness.
"What?" Jian Xi rolled out of bed.
With her hair still a ss from sleep, she peered down from the window.
Fu Shengyuan leaned against a black supercar, impeccably dressed. He looked up and waved at her.
"Debonair scoundrel" perfectly described him—exceptionally handso, yet with an air of refined villainy.
Jian Xi gave an awkward twitch of her lips and said into the phone, "Wait a mont."
She quickly freshened up and hurried out.
The young nanny at ho saw Jian Xi going out with a man and quickly reported it to Jiang Qing.
Fu Shengyuan gazed at the woman beside him. Even without makeup, she possessed a natural elegance. Her skin was fair, smooth, and delicate, her lips a soft red. Simply sitting beside him, she was as captivating as a flower in bloom, stirring his heart. "What would you like to eat?"
"Chinese food?"
She wasn’t one for pretense, so she began to order.
Fu Shengyuan felt that Jian Xi was different from any other woman he had t. She had an independent mind, strong opinions, and most importantly, a distinct personality. That pride of hers, the way she seed utterly unfazed by him, was what he found most attractive.
"Alright, we’ll do as you wish."
At the restaurant, he thoughtfully ordered a variety of nutritious yet light breakfast items for Jian Xi.
Nurous attendants were on hand to serve them.
He elegantly cut all the at dishes for Jian Xi, placing each perfectly sized piece on a plate before her.
"Mr. Fu, you didn’t invite out just for breakfast, did you?"
Jian Xi enjoyed his gentlemanly service, but her mind raced, trying to decipher his intentions. This man is far more cunning than Fu Luosheng; he’s a sly old fox. I absolutely cannot let my guard down.
"I am pursuing you. Isn’t it obvious?"
Fu Shengyuan gave a wry smile. "It seems my efforts haven’t been sufficient to win Miss Jian’s appreciation."
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH—"
Jian Xi raised an eyebrow. "Mr. Fu, please don’t joke around."
"You can call by my na. ’Mr. Fu’ sounds so formal."
"We’re not that familiar with each other to begin with. Since there’s nothing else, Mr. Fu, I’ll take my leave."
Not wanting to impose further after his hospitality, Jian Xi rose to depart.
"I took care of Fu Luosheng for you. On top of his broken legs, I had him turned into an imbecile. Does that help quell so of the anger in your heart?"
Jian Xi’s mouth twitched. A perfectly healthy man, turned into an imbecile just like that? That was his own cousin! He’s truly ruthless!
"Perhaps Miss Jian is a little afraid of ? Do you think I’m a ruthless person?"
Can this man read minds?
"You’re revealing this to so openly. Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell your uncle? He’d fight you to the death."
"I’m betting Miss Jian wouldn’t. After all, if scum like him were left in the world, other girls might suffer. Dealing with him early is like removing a pest for the public good," he chuckled.
Jian Xi forced a smile. "Mr. Fu, you certainly have a way with justifications."
It was probably Fu Luosheng who stood in his way.
"Miss Jian doesn’t seem very appreciative, but no matter. He dared to touch you, so he got what he deserved."
The al left Jian Xi feeling deeply unsettled. It was as if Fu Shengyuan’s harsh actions against Fu Luosheng were sohow her doing, as if she had instigated it.
After the al, as Jian Xi was about to leave, Fu Shengyuan said, "Would you be interested in visiting the chip factory our Tianyao Group has invested in?"
This struck a chord with Jian Xi’s curiosity.
"Yes, I would."
As they were getting into the car, Fu Shengyuan glanced at the several black sedans following them. "Bodyguards?"
"Ah, yes. My family thinks I make enemies everywhere and were afraid I might get... taken out, so they assigned bodyguards to protect ."
Fu Shengyuan’s lips curled into a smile. "You certainly are honest."
"Do you trust ?" he asked Jian Xi.
Jian Xi nodded, then called her bodyguards. "You don’t need to follow today. Take the day off."
"But, Miss..."
The bodyguard hesitated.
"Just do as I say."
"Understood."
Ending the call, Jian Xi tilted her chin slightly. "Let’s go."
Fu Shengyuan’s mood brightened considerably.
「anwhile, Si Junyan received a call from a private investigator.」
"Boss, Jian Xi has dismissed her bodyguards. You can teach her a lesson now."
Without hesitation, Si Junyan ordered his n to contact the thugs and tell them to act.
Jian Xi, you’re courting death. Don’t bla for what happens next.
He laughed sinisterly, as if he could already envision Jian Xi lying dead in the street.
His boisterous laughter pulled at the wounds on his face, causing him to wince in pain.
"Damn it!" he cursed, grinding his teeth.
「During the drive, Jian Xi and Fu Shengyuan chatted and laughed.」
Jian Xi found him incredibly erudite, knowledgeable about everything from astronomy to geography; there seed to be no topic he couldn’t discuss. In short, every conversation with him was enlightening. He was truly a man of broad learning and diverse talents.
"I didn’t expect Mr. Fu to know so much about beauty brands too."
He looked at Jian Xi. "It’s because of you."
Such a smooth talker! Jian Xi pursed her lips, hiding a chuckle. But he really is quite slick.
