《Oh, no! I Became the Sister of the Novel s Tragic Heroine!》


 Chapter 1

    The Saintess


    The wind howled outside the window as the once-in-a-decade rainstorm enveloped the city.


    Yin Xun¡¯s company had also issued a notice to work from home, but even so, the work was not much easier. Yin Xun finished a few contracts before rubbing her neck and lying on the sofa to take out her phone.


    Her slender fingers idly swiped the screen. A pop-up window suddenly popped up¡ª


    ¡°Si Fan held Yin Mo¡¯s delicate chin gently and said in a pleading voice, ¡®I¡¯m really in love with you. Give me a chance to love you, okay?¡¯ Yin Mo¡¯s heart was pounding. Before she could answer, the man covered her lips with a passionate kiss, as if he was afraid she would say no¡­¡±


    ¡®Wow, that¡¯s mushy!¡¯ Yin Xun smiled. ¡®But I like it!¡¯


    She liked to read all kinds of sweet words sprinkled with sugar.


    After all, as an employee, life was already hard enough. She needed the sweet love of others to heal her heart that had been squeezed dry by the capitalists!


    Yin Xun hurriedly clicked on the novel link and began to read it in fascination.


    More than an hour later, Yin Xun cursed angrily. ¡°F*ck, this is a copycat scam!¡±


    Yin Xun was so angry that her throat was burning. She drank a glass of cold water and endured the anger in her heart as she continued to read.


    She did not expect to be fooled by this novel. This was not a sweet novel at all, but a wolf in sheep¡¯s clothing! It was so sad that it was unbearable!


    In the novel, the female lead, Yin Mo, was a top-grade white lotus. The book described her as gentle, kind, and beautiful like an angel who had descended to the mortal world¡­


    ¡®Pah! What angel? This is the brainless Virgin Mary!¡¯


    The worst thing was that Yin Mo was a hopeless romantic.


    The male lead of the novel, Si Fan, regarded the parents of the female lead, Yin Mo, as enemies because of the death of his biological parents. He schemed to hook up with Yin Mo. After falling in love with Yin Mo, he used all kinds of schemes to bankrupt the Yin family and put them in debt of three million bucks.


    Bankruptcy alone was not enough. Si Fan also wanted the lives of Yin Mo¡¯s entire family. He had designed an accident that turned Yin Mo¡¯s father into a vegetable. Yin Mo¡¯s mother had to work three or four part-time jobs a day for the high medical fees.


    Even so, the male lead did not let her off. He arranged for someone to lure Yin Mo¡¯s mother into a pyramid scheme. In the end, the police arrested the people from the pyramid scheme and Yin Mo¡¯s mother went to jail.


    As for Yin Mo¡¯s brother, it was even worse. It had only been a month since Si Fan had tricked him into taking dangerous drugs. Yin Mo¡¯s brother was so thin that he was almost bone. He was delirious and no different from a lunatic.


    As for Yin Mo, she was also deceived by the male lead through various means and was even imprisoned by him. As for domestic violence such as slapping and punching, it was common. He even had sex with other women in front of Yin Mo.


    Do you think these can make Yin Mo angry and then hate the male lead deeply?


    ¡®No!¡¯


    Not only did Yin Mo not hate the male lead, she even felt that he was kind-hearted. He was only doing these things because he was blinded by hatred. As for her, she needed to use kindness and love to reform him and save him!


    As for the various vicious supporting characters who hurt, deceived, and humiliated Yin Mo, Yin Mo even expressed that it was fine. She could understand them. She could forgive them!


    At this point, Yin Xun was almost breathless. If Yin Mo was standing in front of her now, she promised that she would give Yin Mo a resounding slap!


    Yin Xun did not want to read anymore, but she had been reading for more than two hours. She flipped to the last two pages and quickly finished reading the ending.


    The ending was also ridiculously shocking¡ª


    After all of Yin Mo¡¯s relatives were killed by Si Fan, the male protagonist suddenly realized that he had really fallen in love with Yin Mo, so he knelt in front of Yin Mo and begged her to forgive him.


    As for Yin Mo, although she was also very sad and in pain after a series of melodramatic events like cancer, amnesia, changing her cornea, and getting pregnant, she felt that since the tragedy had already happened, the living should live well. In addition, the male lead had already woken up and repented. She should give him a chance to be a new person. Besides, she had always loved the male lead deeply.


    Therefore, Yin Mo¡¯s final punishment for the male lead was to treat her and the baby well for the rest of his life. The male lead also promised affectionately that he would only love her for the rest of his life.


    After watching the ending, Yin Xun¡¯s high blood pressure was almost gone. She held her forehead and took deep breaths.


    ¡°If I could get into a book, I¡¯d slap you and make you sober. Love brain! Pui!¡±


    As soon as he said that, a terrible thunder rumbled in the sky.


    Yin Xun¡¯s soul seemed to suddenly leave her body, and she quickly lost consciousness.


    ¡­ .


    When she woke up again, Yin Xun was sitting in an airplane seat. The stewardess was gently asking if she needed help.


    Yin Xun¡¯s face was extremely pale. After she woke up, many unfamiliar memories suddenly appeared in her mind. After receiving these memories, Yin Xun¡¯s expression turned even uglier!


    She was really unlucky to have transmigrated into a book and become the biological sister of that female lead, Yin Mo!


    Yin wanted to bang her head against the windowpane. She really regretted opening the novel.


    She did not think she usually did anything bad. Why had God chosen her to be the heroine¡¯s family?


    Yin Xun was Yin Mo¡¯s biological sister. Her family had sent her overseas to study when she was in high school. After graduating with two degrees this year, she chose to return to the country. She was now on the plane home.


    After becoming Sister Yin Mo, not only was she in danger of being angered to death by Yin Mo, but she also had to face the revenge of that crazy male lead on the Yin family.


    From the original book, apart from the female lead, no one in the Yin family had a good ending. Si Fan hated the Yin family to the core, so he naturally would not let them off.


    Therefore, Yin Xun was in a very dangerous situation.

 Chapter 2

    The Sister Of The Female Protagonist


    The plane arrived at the capital¡¯s international airport. Yin Xun lugged her suitcase and walked out of the airport. Very quickly, she saw the Yin family¡¯s father Yin Cheng, mother Wu Li, younger brother Yin Rui, and the female lead, Yin Mo, waiting for her at the exit.


    As the female lead, Yin Mo was indeed quite good-looking. She had a pair of big eyes, very white skin, and her lips always revealed a gentle smile. She stood there like a blooming White Lotus.


    If Yin Xun did not know Yin Mo, she might have praised her for being a great beauty. However, Yin Xun rolled her eyes fiercely, wishing that her retinas had a shielding function.


    The bad taste of the novel on her had not disappeared yet. When she saw Yin Mo, her blood pressure still could not help but rise.


    ¡°Ah Xun, you¡¯ve grown so tall. You¡¯re a big girl Now. Your mother and I don¡¯t dare to call you that just now. We almost couldn¡¯t recognize you.¡± Yin Cheng laughed heartily.


    Wu Li laughed as she patted Yin Cheng¡¯s arm. ¡°The one who didn¡¯t recognize you was my own precious daughter. How could I not recognize her?¡± Ah Xun, you must be exhausted after such a long flight. Yin Rui, hurry up and help your sister get her suitcase!¡±


    If Yin Mo was not around, this scene of a family reunion could be said to be very touching.


    Yin Xun¡¯s father and mother seemed to be very easy to get along with. Her younger brother, Yin Rui, also seemed to be a physically and mentally healthy young man. Yin Xun could not understand. How could such a normal family raise someone like Yin Mo, who could not distinguish right from wrong and could not distinguish black from white?


    Yin Rui looked at Yin Xun a little shyly and took the box from Yin Xun¡¯s hands nervously. Wu Li patted him from behind. ¡°What are you standing there for? You don¡¯t even know how to greet your sister when you see her?¡±


    ¡°Big sister,¡± Yin Rui called out in a small voice.


    Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°Let¡¯s go home first. I¡¯m hungry. I¡¯ve been overseas for so many years. I really miss the food at home.¡±


    Yin Xun had been abroad for many years and did not have much contact with her family, so she did not have to worry about being exposed as a fake who suddenly appeared. This would make it easier for her to do things in the future.


    ¡°Big sister.¡± Yin Mo, who was standing beside Wu Li, also smiled shyly and called out.


    Yin Xun turned his head and saw her. She put on a fake smile and nodded, her attitude obviously a little cold.


    Yin Cheng and Wu Li did not think too much about it. They just assumed that the two sisters had not seen each other for so many years, so it was normal for them to be a little distant.


    When they got out of the airport, there was a new Elfa parked on the side of the road. Yin Xun walked to the car and asked calmly, ¡°Dad, you got a new car?¡±


    In his early years, Yin Cheng had become rich by running a street stall business. He knew that it was not easy to earn money, so he still maintained a frugal lifestyle. He would only change his phone after four to five years, so it was even more rare for him to change his car.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯ve been driving that old car for so many years. It¡¯s time for a change.¡± Yin Cheng smiled as he replied Yin Xun.


    When he heard Yin Cheng¡¯s words, Yin Rui¡¯s expression was instantly filled with dissatisfaction. He grumbled in a small voice,¡±The car was fine at first, but when Second Sister was driving it, she got into a crash with Liu Ying. After the accident, Liu Ying was not willing to pay for the repairs, but Second Sister said that it was all her responsibility and paid for it herself!¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Rui gently and said in a gentle tone, ¡°Xiao Rui, how can you say that? I didn¡¯t have time to avoid her at that time, so I¡¯m partly to blame. Besides, I¡¯m not injured, and Liu Ying has already apologized to me. Her family can¡¯t afford to pay so much money, but our family has money, so it doesn¡¯t matter if we pay.¡±


    After Yin Mo finished speaking, the remaining four people from the Yin family were silent.


    Yin Cheng, his wife, and Yin Rui were silent because they were already used to Yin Mo¡¯s personality. They could totally guess that she would say this.


    Yin Xun¡¯s silence was due to shock.


    It turned out that reading a novel and experiencing it personally were indeed completely different. When she personally faced Yin Mo, the legendary Saint, the feeling of being angered to death became even stronger.


    What did he mean by not having to be compensated if he had no money? What do you mean ¡®I¡¯m fine, so don¡¯t pursue it?¡¯


    She spoke as if the Yin family¡¯s money was earned by Yin Mo, but all the money in the Yin family was earned by Yin Chengxin¡¯s hard work. It was fine if she, Yin Mo, was a spendthrift herself, but why did she have to make the Yin family a part of it as well?


    Yin Xun could not take it anymore. She did something that she had always wanted to do when she was reading the novel.


    ¡°Pa!¡± A loud slap landed on Yin Mo¡¯s face. Yin Mo¡¯s snow-white face immediately turned red.


    It was so therapeutic! Yin Xun shook her slightly numb hand, feeling extremely good.


    The reason why Yin Xun was so angry was not entirely because Yin Mo had dragged the Yin family into paying someone else¡¯s debt, but there was another very important reason.


    In the original book, in order to take revenge on the Yin family, Si Fan specially arranged for Liu Ying to follow Yin Mo. After studying Yin Mo¡¯s schedule, she crashed into the Yin family¡¯s car on the road. After the car was damaged, Si Fan pretended to be helpful and said he would get it repaired.


    Yin Cheng naturally did not suspect Si Fan had a scheme and happily gave the car to him. After that, Si Fan found someone to tamper with the car.


    After that, Yin Cheng got into an accident while driving the problematic car, and the Yin family¡¯s tragic fate began.


    It could be said that this incident was the beginning of Si Fan¡¯s revenge on the Yin family. From then on, Si Fan used Yin Mo¡¯s stupidity and saintly nature to drag everyone in the Yin family into h*ll.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo coldly, only to see that Yin Mo was completely stunned by her slap. She covered her face and looked at her with tears in her eyes. ¡°Older sister, why did you hit me?¡±


    What, slapping a saint like you needs an appointment? Yin Xun¡¯s smile turned even colder.


    Yin Mo¡¯s tears were about to flow , and a luxury car suddenly sped past her. Yin Mo was so shocked that she took a few steps back, and her tears also stopped.

 Chapter 3

    ¡°Kind¡±


    Yin Mo patted her chest. After she recovered from the shock, she turned her head and looked at Yin Xun gratefully. ¡°Sister, were you trying to warn me that there¡¯s a car behind us? If it wasn¡¯t for you, I would have been hit.¡±


    The corner of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth twitched. She did not expect Yin Mo to find an excuse to forgive her so quickly after being slapped. It seemed like this Saintly skill was indeed very powerful.


    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s all thanks to me that you were saved.¡± Yin Xun resisted the urge to roll her eyes and asked casually, ¡°Did it hurt?¡± she asked.


    ¡°No, it didn¡¯t,¡± Yin Mo revealed a pure and innocent smile that was like that of a little white rabbit.


    Yin Xun thought that if she had not read novels, she might really have been deceived by Yin Mo¡¯s smile. Who would have thought that this girl with a sweet smile in front of her would actually cause the death of her entire family and even love her enemy for the rest of her life?


    ¡°How does this person drive! Do you think you can be so arrogant just because you have some filthy money?¡± Yin Rui was very angry. He looked at Yin Mo to see if she was injured and said angrily, ¡°I remember the license plate number. Let¡¯s go to the airport to complain about him and let the traffic police punish him severely!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. I didn¡¯t get hit. They might have something urgent to attend to. Yin Xun smiled gently. Xiao Rui, don¡¯t always get angry. You have to learn to be considerate of others.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s temples throbbed, and the anger that had just disappeared was reignited.


    It seemed that her slap was still too light and did not wake Yin Mo up at all!


    Actually, on the plane, Yin Xun had also thought about how to treat Yin Mo.


    Although she hated Yin Mo¡¯s bottomless kindness, she did not want to give Yin Mo the death sentence right from the start. There was an old saying in China: ¡°It¡¯s best to correct one¡¯s mistakes.¡± Yin Xun thought that if she could change Yin Mo¡¯s values, she might still be able to save her.


    However, through Yin Mo¡¯s words and actions, Yin Xun felt that it might be very difficult for her to change Yin Mo.


    This woman¡¯s saint-like patience and love-loving brain was engraved in her soul.


    If Yin Mo¡¯s kindness and magnanimity only caused her to suffer losses in her life, it would not matter. However, not only did Yin Mo always get taken advantage of, but she would also drag the people around her to be taken advantage of as well!


    In the original book, the kind friends who helped Yin Mo all ended up miserable. Some were plotted against by Si Fan, some were framed by those supporting characters, and Yin Mo forgave those evil people in the end.


    That is right, she chose to forgive everything. She maintained her ¡°kindness¡±, but she made others pay a heavy price!


    Could this kind of kindness still be called kindness? This was even more terrifying than evil.


    When he heard Yin Mo¡¯s words, Yin Rui was helpless and anxious. He pulled Yin Xun¡¯s sleeve. Big Sister, tell Second Sister. How can she always be like this? You¡¯ll be bullied like this!¡±


    Yin Xun snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Yin Mo. She revealed a cold smile and said, ¡°Forget it, Xiao Rui. Don¡¯t bother about her. Anyway, the person who was about to be hit was not you. Since your Second Sister has already forgiven them, we should respect her choice.¡±


    In the few hours that he had been through the book, Yin Xun had initially formulated a basic policy for treating Yin Mo¡ªgive up on helping others and respect their fate.


    If Yin Mo wanted to be kind, then she would be kind. As long as she did not harm the Yin family, even if she wanted to die, Yin Xun would not stop her.


    The family got into the car. Yin Rui was still a little unhappy. Yin Xun sent him a text message on his phone. [Don¡¯t be angry. I just called the police at the airport. Don¡¯t tell your Second Sister about this.]


    When Yin Rui saw the message, his eyes instantly lit up, and he looked at Yin Xun with admiration and respect.


    Yin Xun smiled and put away her phone.


    Although it had only been a few hours since she transmigrated, Yin Xun had already adapted to her new role. Her boss had once praised her, saying that her greatest strengths were her strong adaptability and quick thinking.


    Since transmigrating was an unchangeable fact, Yin Xun could only continue to live well in this world. At the same time, she also had to protect her family in this world.


    No matter if it was Yin Mo or Si Fan, she would not let them have any chance to hurt her family.


    Yin Xun was a very domineering person since she was young. She was self-disciplined and tough. With her excellent results in the top university in the country, she successfully entered the capital¡¯s top securities center to work after graduation. She was also an elite woman in her work.


    Yin Xun liked to arrange her life in a very orderly manner and was extremely resistant to others disrupting the order she had set.


    So, from now on, she wanted to become strong in this world, so strong that no one could threaten her life and her family.

 Chapter 4

    Confrontation


    When they arrived at the Yin residence, Yin Xun opened a box and took out gifts for her family.


    She gave her father, Yin Cheng, a hand-made wide-rimmed top hat. She gave her mother, Wu Li, a Camellia brooch embedded with hundreds of fine diamonds. She gave her younger brother, Yin Rui, a set of mechanical puzzles and the latest game console.


    Then, Yin Xun reluctantly handed an exquisite crocodile square bag to Yin Mo. ¡°This is for you.¡±


    Yin Mo took the square bag in surprise and said with a sweet smile, ¡°Thank you, sister.¡±


    After giving out the gifts, the family was about to have lunch when the doorbell rang.


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes instantly lit up. She put down her bag and went to open the door while saying in surprise,¡±It must be Si Fan!¡±


    Soon, Yin Mo came back holding Si Fan¡¯s arm. Her smile was even sweeter. Her face was filled with happiness and satisfaction, and she could not see anyone else other than Si Fan.


    ¡°Uncle, Auntie.¡± Si Fan revealed a noble and appropriate smile and greeted Yin Cheng and Wu Li. He also nodded to Yin Rui in acknowledgment before finally looking at Yin Xun. Yin Xun?¡±


    Yin Xun had been observing Si Fan from the moment he appeared.


    This man was very handsome, and he had a strong aura. No wonder Yin Mo and other women were so attracted to him.


    However, Yin Xun could also tell that Si Fan¡¯s gaze towards Yin Xun was not that passionate. Instead, it was as if he was acting. That gentleness and deep love seemed a little fake, but he concealed it very well, and ordinary people could not see it.


    Yin Xun reached out and shook Si Fan¡¯s hand. ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m Yin Mo¡¯s older sister, Yin Xun.¡±


    At the same time that Yin Xun was sizing Si Fan up, Si Fan was also observing Yin Xun. He originally thought that Yin Xun and Yin Mo would have similar personalities. After all, Yin Mo and Yin Rui were not the scheming type at all. However, after seeing Yin Xun, he realized that he could not see through this woman at all!


    Her smile was very routine, and her expression was as perfect as a mask. He could not tell what she was thinking at all.


    An alarm went off in Si Fan¡¯s heart¡ªthis woman was definitely not as she seemed.


    ¡°Sister, Si Fan is my boyfriend. I was interning at his company before. Let me tell you, he is really amazing¡­¡± Yin Mo was excited as she wanted to introduce her boyfriend to Yin Xun.


    ¡°I¡¯ll understand what I need to know in the future. Let¡¯s eat first, I¡¯m hungry.¡± Yin Xun waved her hand casually and interrupted Yin Mo¡¯s words. Her domineering aura instantly turned the house into her territory.


    Yin Mo felt wronged and closed her mouth. She hugged Si Fan¡¯s arm tightly.


    Yin Xun¡¯s dominating personality made Si Fan very uncomfortable. He always felt that this woman seemed to be leading the rhythm of the conversation unknowingly, which was unbearable.


    Si Fan thought for a moment and smiled politely. He said in a surprised tone, ¡°Miss Yin Xun¡­¡±


    ¡°Yin Mo calls me Big Sister, and you are her boyfriend. Why are you so polite to me? You can just call me Sister, we¡¯re a family, don¡¯t be so distant!¡± Yin Xun smiled and interrupted Si Fan¡¯s words. Her tone was warm and friendly.


    At this moment, Yin Xun thought to herself, ¡®Luckily, I¡¯m not Yin Mo¡¯s younger sister. If Si Fan doesn¡¯t want to cause trouble, he would have to call me Big Sister. This is great!¡¯


    Si Fan¡¯s expression turned ugly. He wanted to take back the right to lead the conversation, but he did not expect this woman to ask him to call her Sister. If he really did, would he be one head lower than this woman? It was as if she was his elder!


    Si Fan was so angry that he clenched his teeth, but the rest of the Yin family did not seem to think that there was anything wrong with Yin Xun¡¯s words. Yin Cheng even laughed and said, ¡°That¡¯s right, we¡¯ll be a family in the future!¡±


    Si Fan took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart as he forced out,¡±Big Sister.¡±


    Yin Xun gave a kind smile and nodded.


    Si Fan¡¯s parents had passed away in his early years, and he was later adopted by a rich man with the same surname. After so many years, he had gotten used to being patient, so his expression quickly returned to normal. He continued, ¡°I heard that you¡¯ve been studying abroad and that the opportunities for development overseas are quite good. Why did you suddenly think of coming back?¡±


    Yin Xun knew that Si Fan had definitely set a trap, but she was not afraid. She smiled calmly and said, ¡°This is my home. I¡¯m not planning to develop my career overseas.¡±


    Si Fan closed in step by step and said with a deep smile, ¡°So you¡¯re saying that you plan to take over uncle¡¯s company?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Si Fan¡¯s handsome face and her smile turned cold.


    Did he want to put the hat of ¡°stealing the family property¡± on her? He was really ruthless!

 Chapter 5

    Resolution


    Yin Xun knew that Si Fan was definitely treating the Yin family like a piece of fat meat in his mouth. The moment she came back, he felt that she was going to snatch that piece of meat from him, so he was very unhappy with her.


    Si Fan was probably planning how to deal with her right now.


    Yin Xun did not plan on following Si Fan¡¯s rhythm. She sat on the sofa and laughed lazily, pretending to be confused as she looked at Si Fan.¡±Mr. Si, you¡¯re very interested in our family matters. Why would you ask this? I am a daughter of the Yin family, so isn¡¯t it normal for my father to hand the company over to me? Do you want to make a deal or something?¡±


    Si Fan did not expect this woman to be so arrogant. Not only did she not fall into the trap he had set for her, but she even reversed the situation on him!


    He forced a smile and said, ¡°After all, I am Yin Mo¡¯s boyfriend. Naturally, I have to think more about her. Momo usually doesn¡¯t fight for anything, and I¡¯m afraid that she will be at a disadvantage. There is also Yin Rui. He is also a child of the Yin family. Uncle wouldn¡¯t be biased towards the eldest sister, right?¡±


    Yin Mo finally understood that Si Fan was fighting for her interests. She was so touched that she almost cried.


    Si Fan looked at Yin Xun coldly. Of course, he would not let this woman successfully take control of the Yin family¡¯s business. All of the Yin family¡¯s assets were his. If she insisted on fighting with him, then they should not blame him for being ruthless¡­


    Si Fan did not plan to get involved with Yin Xun for the time being. After all, she had just returned and he did not know this woman well enough. He needed to observe her for a while before he could make a plan.


    However, even if he could not make a move, it did not mean that he could not sow discord. As long as he exposed Yin Xun¡¯s wild ambitions, Yin Mo and Yin Rui would definitely be unhappy with her. In the future, if he asked Yin Mo to say bad things about Yin Xun in front of Yin Cheng, then Yin Cheng would slowly hate Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun looked at Si Fan and revealed a mocking smile.


    This Si Fan really understood people¡¯s hearts. He knew that he would gradually cause internal conflicts between the three siblings.


    However, she was not stupid. How could she let him have his way? Yin Xun changed to a more comfortable sitting position and said with a smile, ¡°Mr. Si, you¡¯re overthinking it. Do you think I¡¯m that kind of person? If I were that kind of person, I wouldn¡¯t have chosen to go abroad in the first place. It¡¯s more convenient for me to scheme for the family property if I stay in the country, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    ¡°But you¡¯re back now.¡± Si Fan knew that now was not a good time to fight with Yin Xun. After all, Yin Cheng and Wu Li were both watching from the side. However, this woman¡¯s smile made him feel too uncomfortable. He chose to continue to interrogate Yin Xun, wanting to see her panic.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. I came back because my father¡¯s health is not too good. The company needs someone to help temporarily, and Yin Rui is too young. Yin Mo doesn¡¯t understand these things.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was neither hurried nor slow. ¡°Furthermore, as Yin Mo¡¯s boyfriend, don¡¯t you know that her greatest wish in this life is to start a family with you and have a child with you? She had never thought about managing a company. Otherwise, she would have chosen a related major like me back then. Yin Mo, am I right?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded her head and said shyly, ¡°Big Sister is right. I don¡¯t really want to manage company¡¯s matters. I just want to marry Si Fan as soon as possible. Big Sister, thank you for thinking so much about me.¡±


    Si Fan was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He cursed in his heart. ¡®Stupid woman! Do you just believe whatever she says?


    ¡®As for Yin Rui, he is still young. When he grows up, even if he doesn¡¯t want to work in the company, I will still kidnap him.¡¯ Yin Xun turned her head and smiled gently at Yin Rui, but Yin Rui was so scared that he kept trembling. The memory of being beaten up by Yin Xun when he was young instantly appeared in his mind.


    When he was young, Yin Rui was very mischievous, but Yin Cheng and Wu Li both doted on their children. Forget hitting him, they could not even bear to scold him. As Yin Mo had a weak personality, so she would not scold him.


    However, Yin Xun was different! Not only would she beat him up, but she would also ask him if he will be good. If his attitude was the slightest bit bad, he would be beaten up by Yin Xun again!


    Therefore, Yin Rui¡¯s respect for Yin Xun was carved into his bones. Even though he knew that Big Sister loved him, he was most afraid of Yin Xun at home.


    Yin Xun used a few words to resolve the crisis that Si Fan had created for her, but Si Fan, who had been asking her questions, seemed a little strange.


    Yin Cheng saw that the atmosphere did not feel quite right and hurriedly said, ¡°Let¡¯s eat first, the food will get cold.¡±


    After the meal, Yin Mo took a tissue and gently wiped the corner of Si Fan¡¯s mouth, while Si Fan glanced at Yin Xun and prepared to go back and make a plan to deal with Yin Xun.


    Si Fan stood up. ¡°Uncle, your car has been fixed. I¡¯ll get someone to send it over tomorrow. If there¡¯s anything, you can contact me again. I¡¯ll be leaving first.¡±


    Yin Cheng hurriedly said, ¡°Okay, thank you. Yin Mo, send Si fan off.¡±

 Chapter 6

    The Plan


    Si Fan and Yin Mo had not even left the house when Yin Xun said to Yin Cheng, ¡°Dad, let me drive your old car.¡±


    Si Fan stopped in his tracks, and his face turned frighteningly dark. Yin Mo looked at him in confusion. ¡°Si Fan, what¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°That car is already old. You can drive my new car,¡± Yin Cheng said.


    ¡°No need, I just came back. It¡¯s too high-profile to drive a new car. Besides, it¡¯s more comfortable to drive an old car.¡±


    ¡°Alright, you can drive it then. I¡¯ll give you another one for your birthday.¡±


    ¡­


    A few minutes later, Si Fan and Yin Mo walked out of the neighborhood. Yin Mo was still a little reluctant to part. She snuggled into Si Fan¡¯s arms and asked in a coquettish manner, ¡°When are we getting engaged? My dad asked me to ask your family for their opinion.¡±


    Si Fan did not like Yin Mo at all right now, and naturally, he never thought of really becoming husband and wife with her. He casually said a few words, but in his heart, he was thinking about how Yin Xun actually wanted to take the car away.


    He had tampered with that car. He had originally wanted to cause an accident to the Yin family, and then he would logically control the Yin family. However, he did not expect Yin Xun to suddenly appear and ruin his plans.


    He could only think of other ways now. If he missed this good opportunity, it would not be so easy to take Yin Cheng¡¯s life again.


    However, if Yin Xun died in an accident while driving, it would not be a bad thing.


    Si Fan¡¯s intuition told him that Yin Xun was no ordinary woman. She would definitely become a threat to him in the future.


    ¡°Si Fan, why aren¡¯t you answering me? Have you had any problems at work recently?¡± Seeing that Si Fan had not said anything, Yin Mo asked uneasily.


    Si Fan came back to his senses and glanced at Yin Mo in disgust. Then, he forced a smile. ¡°I¡¯ve been a little busy with work recently. We¡¯ll talk about the engagement later. By the way, I think there¡¯s something wrong with your sister. If there¡¯s anything abnormal about her, you have to tell me quickly.¡±


    Yin Mo did not expect her boyfriend to actually suspect her sister. She frowned and hesitated before saying, ¡°But my sister is really good to me. Si Fan, are you thinking too much?¡±


    Idiot!


    Si fan wanted to curse out loud, but he could only suppress the anger in his heart and coldly said, ¡°I¡¯m your boyfriend. I won¡¯t harm you. Just do as I say. It¡¯ll be best if your sister is fine. If she really wants to steal your interests and assets, we must be prepared in advance.¡±


    Yin Mo bit her lip and nodded her head.


    Compared to an older sister that she had not seen for many years, in her heart, her lover¡¯s words were naturally more important.


    After Yin Mo and Si Fan left, Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui, who was turning on the television and preparing to watch a talk show. She said sharply, ¡°Have you finished your homework?¡±


    Yin Rui suddenly sat up straight and immediately turned off the television. He ran up to the second floor.


    When Yin Cheng saw this scene, he could not help but laugh out loud. ¡°Xiao Rui is still the most afraid of you. Your mother and I can¡¯t control him.¡±


    Seeing that there was no one else around, Yin Xun took a sip of tea and said, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m going to your company. Can you arrange a position for me?¡±


    ¡°No problem, but I thought that you would start your own business when you came back.¡± Yin Cheng laughed as he looked at his daughter, whom he had not seen for many years. ¡°It¡¯s naturally best that you can come to the company. You can also help me share some of the pressure.¡±


    If it was not for Si Fan, this wolf, secretly drooling over the Yin family¡¯s business, Yin Xun might have chosen to start her own business. Now however, the most important thing was to protect the Yin family.


    She wanted to go to the company and quickly train up some trusted followers. Then, she would have absolute authority in the company. That way, even if Si Fan made any big moves in the future, she would have the ability to fight back.


    Yin Cheng briefly explained the company¡¯s current situation. After some discussion, he said, ¡°Why don¡¯t you start from the ground-up? As long as you produce results, I¡¯ll quickly promote you to management.¡±


    Yin Xun furrowed his brows and slowly shook her head. ¡°No, at least give me the position of a Deputy Manager or above. Also, arrange a few projects for me. The sooner, the better.¡±


    Right now, Yin Cheng did not know that Si Fan had already set his eyes on the Yin family. He wanted Yin Xun to start from the bottom so that at least she would not cause the other people in the company to feel resentful. After all, opening the back door had a huge disadvantage in the long run.


    However, Yin Xun did not have the time to play the game of the career ladder. She needed to enter the company¡¯s core management as soon as possible and quickly familiarize herself with the company¡¯s business. Then, she would come up with a plan to resist Si Fan¡¯s plan to annex the business.


    Yin Cheng furrowed his brows, feeling a little awkward. He thought for a moment before finally nodding his head. ¡°Okay, I will arrange it for you. You can rest for a day first and come to the office to work the day after tomorrow.¡±

 Chapter 7

    Know Yourself And Know Your Enemy


    Yin Xun did not raise any objections and nodded her head. She stood up and was about to return to her room when Yin Cheng asked her, ¡°By the way, do you have any thing to say about Momo¡¯s boyfriend?¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°Do I?¡±


    Yin Cheng laughed. ¡°Your father isn¡¯t that old yet. You don¡¯t seem to like Si Fan.¡±


    Yin Xun did not deny it and nodded her head. ¡°That¡¯s right. I don¡¯t like him very much. He seems to be too devious. Yin Mo is a¡­ I¡¯m afraid she can¡¯t handle a man like Si Fan.¡±


    Yin Cheng slowly shook his head. ¡°Ah Xun, aren¡¯t you thinking too much? I think Si Fan is a very capable person. He¡¯s also very polite to his elders and knows his limits. It¡¯s not easy to find such an outstanding man these days, and he¡¯s also very good to your sister.¡±


    Yin Xun was silent. She knew that Yin Cheng had yet to discover anything wrong with Si Fan. Furthermore, Yin Cheng doted on Yin Mo so much. Si Fan was the man that Yin Mo loved so deeply, so Yin Cheng would naturally not suspect that Si Fan had any other motives.


    Yin Cheng drank a mouthful of water and sighed. ¡°Daddy hopes that the next time you see Si Fan, you won¡¯t have any conflicts with him. Otherwise, your sister will also be conflicted. We are a family, after all. We should be harmonious.¡±


    Yin Xun did not explain to Yin Cheng what was wrong with Si Fan. She smiled lightly and said, ¡°Mm, I understand.¡±


    After she finished speaking to Yin Cheng, Yin Xun went upstairs and went to her room. Her room faced south and had good lighting. She laid on the soft bed and relaxed for a while. Then, she got up and went to the desk to turn on the computer. She entered the keywords and started to search for information about Si Fan and the SI Corporation.


    She scanned through the information she found and saved them in a separate file. Other than that, she also checked the background of the current world.


    As far as she knew, there were many similarities between this world and the world she was in. It was very similar to the parallel world of her original world, but the current level of development in this world was slightly behind. In recent years, the internet had just emerged, and many internet companies were still in their early stages of development. The internet industry had not yet spread all over the world.


    Yin Xun was a little excited.


    This slow development was a huge opportunity for her. She had the memories of the other world and the understanding of the new era, which was equivalent to foresight. This allowed her to think ahead of others.


    She sorted out the news and information related to the background of this world and stored them in a document. Then, she wrote down the development information of her original world based on her memory, in order to prevent himself from forgetting it after staying in this world for a long time. After doing all this, the sky was already dark.


    Yin Xun stretched her limbs, ate a simple meal, took a quick shower, and then went to sleep comfortably. She had important things to do the next day.


    ¡­


    The next day, Yin Xun arrived at the office on time, and Yin Cheng was already waiting for her in the office.


    ¡°Ah Xun, I know you¡¯re very capable, but it¡¯s not easy to take on a big project right away. Do you want to think about it again? Or I can find you a few small projects to practice on.¡± Before she left, Yin Cheng spoke with Yin Xun again.


    Starting from the bottom, other than being more familiar with the business, it could also generate goodwill. One must know that it was a taboo to rely on connections in the workplace. Not only would less people accept her, but if she made a mistake, she would also be criticized more harshly. Even if the company was handed over to her in the future, it would not be easy to manage it if employees did not respect you.


    Facing Yin Cheng¡¯s words, Yin Xun did not back down. She smiled and promised him, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what I¡¯m doing.¡±


    Seeing how confident Yin Xun was, Yin Cheng did not say anything more and led her directly to the meeting room on the 26th floor. All the higher-ups were already present and were whispering to each other about something. When they saw Yin Cheng enter, they all quieted down.


    Yin Cheng did not waste any time. After introducing Yin Xun, he immediately announced that he would hand over the Donggang modern city project to her.


    As soon as he finished speaking, the meeting room was filled with dissatisfaction. Everyone looked at Yin Xun with disdain. Even though they had never seen this great Miss Yin before, they had heard some news about her. They heard that she had been studying abroad and was a top student. She had only returned recently.


    They had thought that this young lady was different from other rich second generations and would rely on her own ability to work. They did not expect that she was one of those types who relied on her parents to supply her with her degree and her job. In this case, it was possible that her high education was bought with money.

 Chapter 8

    Taking Over The Project


    The higher-ups looked at each other with a tacit understanding, and then looked at Yin Xun with even more disdain.


    However, since the Chairman of the Board, Yin Cheng, was here, no one objected even though they were not convinced.


    Yin Xun welcomed everyone¡¯s gazes and did not show any fear.


    She smiled faintly and said in a calm tone, ¡°Everyone here is the backbone of the company and is dedicated to the development of the company. In addition, this is a big project and it is very important for the development of the company, so it is normal for the seniors to doubt me.¡±


    Yin Xun paused and continued with a smile, ¡°Everyone must think that I¡¯m using my status to mess around, but that¡¯s not the case. This project is also very important to me. I promise that I¡¯ll complete it 100%. Of course, I¡¯ll have to rely on you seniors to take care of me during this period.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words were neither haughty nor submissive. However, no matter how nicely she put it, the most important thing in business was the results. Yin Xun did not intend to change others¡¯ opinion of her with just a few words, but she still had to be polite.


    If she failed in the end, this group of people would definitely tell her to get lost without any hesitation.


    After the meeting ended, Yin Cheng sighed. ¡°I asked you to take on a small project to practice, and you want such a big project the moment you arrive. Can you handle it?¡±


    Even Yin Cheng was worried that Yin Xun might have bitten off more than she could chew.


    Yin Xun did not say anything else and only said, ¡°If there¡¯s a problem, I¡¯ll just resign. I definitely won¡¯t make things difficult for you.¡±


    Yin Cheng anxiously slammed the table. ¡°Did I say that? I¡¯m just afraid that you might make a mistake. You don¡¯t know how much a project leader has to do! Sigh, that¡¯s youth!¡±


    After leaving Yin Cheng¡¯s office, Yin Xun planned to go to the construction site to take a look. After all, the direction of the story she knew was only from the novel. She still needed to figure out how it would turn out.


    After returning to her office, Yin Xun did not waste a single second. First, she organized the information about ¡°Donggang modern city¡± that she had found yesterday. As for the remaining information about Si Fan, she moved it to another folder. She would think about it when she had time.


    After she was done, Yin Xun got up and walked out. She had just placed her hand on the door handle when her phone suddenly rang.


    It was an unfamiliar number on the screen. Yin Xun did not think much about it. To her now, other than the few members of the Yin family, anyone else who called her was a stranger. The only difference was whether there was a saved number.


    ¡°Miss Yin Xun, I heard that you¡¯re in charge of the Donggang modern city project. I think you¡¯re not familiar with it since you¡¯ve just taken over. Is there anything I can help you with?¡± Before Yin Xun could speak, Si Fan¡¯s voice was already heard from the other end of the phone.


    Even though he had disguised himself very well, Yin Xun could still hear the impatience in his tone.


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. She did not expect Si Fan to get the news so quickly. It seemed like he was more ¡°concerned¡± about the Yin family than she thought. She did not need to think to know that Yin Mo must have given him her phone number.


    ¡°Of course, I was just worried that I didn¡¯t know anything. It¡¯s great to have someone to help me.¡± Yin Xun replied with a fake smile. She knew that although Si Fan said that he wanted to help her, she knew all too well what he was thinking in his heart.


    It just so happened that Yin Xun also needed Si Fan¡¯s help. She wanted to know which steps Si Fan had already completed.


    The two of them agreed on a time to meet, and when Yin Xun arrived, she just happened to see Si Fan and Yin Mo sticking together sweetly.


    Perhaps it was because she had read novels before, but Yin Xun could see the hypocritical impatience in Si Fan¡¯s eyes at a glance, but Yin Mo was smiling sweetly like an idiot.


    Upon seeing this, Yin Xun really wanted to kick the two of them away and slap Yin Mo, who had caused the death of her entire family.


    Yin Xun crossed her arms and stood still. She only looked at the two of them quietly. Si Fan saw her first and greeted her. ¡°Miss Yin Xun, you¡¯ve arrived so quickly. It seems like it¡¯s a good thing I came a little earlier. Otherwise, I would have made you wait for me.¡±


    ¡°Sister, I had free time. I heard Si Fan said he wanted to come over and help you, so I followed him.¡± She did not know if Yin Mo was shy or a little afraid of her, but Yin Mo¡¯s head was half lowered and she did not look at Yin Xun¡¯s eyes.


    Seeing her like this, Yin Xun was extremely disdainful in her heart. She was too preoccupied to pay attention to her. It was more important to get down to business. She gave a perfunctory ¡°mm¡± and walked towards the construction site.


    If she did not guess wrong, Si Fan had brought Yin Mo over on purpose. If he never wanted her here, he could just have not told her where he was going. Now, he brought her over because he was afraid that she would make things difficult for him and wanted Yin Mo to cover for him.

 Chapter 9

    Calculating


    Yin Xun met with the engineer and the person in charge of the project. She had a general understanding of the progress and asked some questions, but she did not find any problems.


    Just as she was about to look for the quality inspector, Si Fan seemed to have seen through her thoughts and said, ¡°Miss Yin Xun, both President Yin and I place a lot of importance on this collaboration, and this collaboration is very important to me, so you do not have to worry about other problems. I will tell them to manage it strictly.¡±


    Ever since he found out that Yin Xun had her eyes on this project, Si Fan was on his guard. Yin Xun was doing well overseas, so why did she suddenly return and start taking part in company matters?


    Back then, Si Fan had already found out from Yin Mo that her elder sister was very independent and had her own goals. She was not interested in the family business, so he did not pay too much attention to her.


    Now however, it seemed that he had made the wrong decision to overlook Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun looked at Si Fan with a smile. Her eyes were calm, and Si Fan could not see through them.


    ¡°It¡¯s precisely because you are Yin Mo¡¯s boyfriend and have a special relationship with the Yin family that I have to put more effort into this project. Otherwise, the other people in the company will definitely have objections to me in their hearts, don¡¯t you think so?¡± Yin Xun answered.


    Si Fan was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Yin Xun to be so cautious. It seemed like she was on a completely different level from Yin Mo. He could not use the methods that he used to fool Yin Mo to deal with Yin Xun.


    ¡°However¡­¡± Yin Xun looked at the construction site in front of her and changed her tone. ¡°You¡¯re my sister¡¯s boyfriend after all, so I¡¯m sure you¡¯ll be responsible for this project. There won¡¯t be any problems with the quality, right?¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s trust in him, Si Fan nodded and promised her. ¡°Of course.¡±


    Yin Mo, who was at the side, also echoed, ¡°Sister, Si Fan is really amazing. He¡¯s also a very good person. You can trust him completely. I¡¯ve been with him for so long, and I¡¯ve never seen him fail in anything.¡±


    Yin Mo smiled sweetly, and her trust in Si Fan was written all over her face.


    Yin Xun secretly rolled her eyes. Her sister was hopeless.


    Although she knew that Si Fan would tamper with this project, in order for the Yin family to completely cut all ties with him, Yin Xun could not expose herself right now. She had to continue to show that she trusted him.


    ¡°Of course, I trust your boyfriend. I don¡¯t care about anything else.¡±


    As soon as Yin Xun finished speaking, an aide jogged over and stood in front of Yin Xun. He panted and apologized repeatedly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m sorry. President Yin, President Si, I just went to the toilet, that¡¯s why I¡¯m late.¡±


    The moment he saw Yin Xun, he was stunned for a moment. Although the higher-ups had already informed them that the person in charge of the project had been changed to a woman, he did not expect that it would be such a young and beautiful one.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m just here to take a look. If you have any problems in the future, feel free to contact me. I¡¯ll be fully in charge of this project.¡± Even though Yin Xun said it subtly, the manager immediately understood. He looked at Si Fan and then nodded at Yin Xun.


    ¡°Alright, you can go,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Yin Xun had come here this time not only to understand the process but also to tell the person in charge that she would monitor the construction situation here at all times. He should not think that he could slack off or cause trouble just because the person in charge had changed. Also, this project had to be under her control, so it would not work even if Si Fan came personally.


    Of course, Si Fan could tell that Yin Xun was trying to show her authority, but as long as Yin Xun did not do any quality inspections, it did not matter. He laughed coldly in his heart. It seemed that Yin Xun was indeed smarter than Yin Mo. She had some brains, but not by much.


    Yin Xun was a little repulsed by him, which made Si Fan feel a little more at ease. It would be more suspicious if she did not do anything.


    The two of them exchanged information, and Yin Xun said goodbye to Si Fan. Si Fan watched as Yin Xun¡¯s car disappeared from his sight before leaving with Yin Mo.


    However, what he did not expect was that after he left, Yin Xun¡¯s car slowly drove back to the site.


    Yin Xun quietly walked in from the side of the construction site without alerting anyone.


    The manager was shocked when he saw Yin Xun return. He thought that he had made a mistake, but he did not expect that Yin Xun to only ask him to quietly call the quality inspector over.


    After the quality inspector arrived, Yin Xun asked the rest of the people to leave, leaving only her and the quality inspector in the room.


    ¡°Have you inspected all the building materials?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    The quality inspector shook his head and said, ¡°No. This batch of materials was sent over by President Si. Because President Yin specifically asked us to take care of President Si, we did not have time to check it.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded his head. As expected, Si Fan¡¯s disguise was too good. He deceived everyone in the Yin family and they even trusted him completely for such a big business matter.

 Chapter 10

    The Seed Of Suspicion


    It was a pity that this guy was a wolf in sheep¡¯s clothing. Using the Yin family¡¯s trust, the materials provided for this project were all inferior, and he even used secondary construction waste as the bearing material.


    Yin Xun asked the quality inspector to test it and then send the test results to her. She also instructed him not to tell anyone. After getting the quality inspector¡¯s assurance, she did a simple test on the quality inspector and found that he really had nothing to do with Si Fan. She then left with a peace of mind.


    As it was a spot check, the quality test results came out very quickly.


    Yin Xun returned home and looked at the three words ¡°unqualified¡± on the test results. A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Her counterattack had begun.


    After a short break, Yin Xun printed out all the information she had gathered that day and started to analyze and formulate a plan to deal with Si Fan.


    After two days of hard work, Yin Xun had a more detailed understanding of the project and understood Si Fan¡¯s thinking.


    Relying on the Yin family¡¯s trust, he invested in the Donggang modern city project. Then, he would not participate in the construction, but outsource for a third party to do it. In the end, the Yin family would bear the responsibility if something bad happened. It was a good plan.


    However, no matter how scheming Si Fan was, as long as he did not have the support of the Yin family, everything would be for naught. So in conclusion, the main culprit of all this was still Yin Mo. If it was not for her, Yin Cheng would not have handed such an important project to Si Fan.


    It was not a good thing to spoil a child too much. It seemed like she had to remind Yin Cheng that the company and personal affairs should not be mixed together.


    In the afternoon, Yin Cheng had just finished the cooperation symposium organized by the government. They had just walked out of the conference hall when they received a call from Yin Xun.


    ¡°You want to see me? Did something go wrong with the project? Oh, okay, wait for me in the office.¡±


    Twenty minutes later, Yin Cheng and Yin Xun were sitting on the sofa in the office. Yin Xun did not waste any time and placed the development case on the table. ¡°Dad, there¡¯s a problem with this project.¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun suspiciously. ¡°What¡¯s the problem? I¡¯ve been sending people to follow up on this project. Did you make a mistake?¡±


    Yin Xun laughed lightly.


    When Yin Cheng said that there was no problem, it meant that there was no problem with the project process. Si Fan naturally would not be so stupid as to tamper with the process.


    ¡°There¡¯s no problem with the proposal. There¡¯s no problem with the project flow. The problem lies with the investors.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Investors¡­ You mean Si Fan?¡± Yin Cheng felt a headache coming on as he rubbed the space between his eyebrows. ¡°Ah Xun, I know that you don¡¯t like Si Fan, but you can¡¯t go against him like this. Si Fan said that he also wants to enter the real estate industry, but he was too embarrassed to tell me. Momo was the one who told me about this. She wanted me to help guide Si Fan.¡±


    ¡°Si Fan will be my son-in-law in the future, so I¡¯m naturally embarrassed to reject him. However, after the cooperation, I¡¯ve been sending people to keep an eye on the project. What problems can there be?¡±


    When Yin Xun had just returned to the country and said that she wanted to take over this project, Yin Cheng had been a little worried. Although this daughter of his had a high degree of education and was very capable, she was still too young and did not have much experience. Looking at it now, it was just as he had expected.


    Yin Xun actually made a wrong judgment about the entire project because of his prejudice towards Si Fan.


    Yin Cheng was thinking in his heart, what kind of reason should he use to persuade Yin Xun to give up on this project, and not let her continue to mess around.


    Just as Yin Cheng was deep in thought, Yin Xun took out a test report and passed it to Yin Cheng. ¡°Dad, this is the test report for the building materials supplied. Take a look for yourself.¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun with a puzzled look before taking it. When he saw the words on it, his face instantly sank.


    ¡°Is there a problem with the materials?¡± Yin Cheng frowned.


    Yin Xun shrugged her shoulders and said, ¡°Since I¡¯m in charge of this project now, I naturally have to check everything. This is the result. However, Si Fan isn¡¯t in charge of the materials, he¡¯s only in charge of investing and finding people to do it for him. So, I¡¯m not sure if he did it on purpose.¡±


    Although Yin Xun was sure that Si Fan did not have good intentions, he still had a relationship with Yin Mo. If she was too hasty, it would be easy to make mistakes.


    As expected, Yin Xun was right. Yin Cheng¡¯s first reaction was to think this was not Si Fan¡¯s fault. He looked at the test report in his hand and said, ¡°Si Fan¡¯s business skills are quite reliable. He¡¯s been in charge of the previous projects and performed very well. Perhaps there¡¯s a problem with the material supplier this time?¡±


    ¡°No matter what the reason is, this is a huge mistake. If we didn¡¯t find out in time, the consequences would be unimaginable. Whether or not he did it on purpose, it was best not to work with him on this project anymore. The most important thing is that he doesn¡¯t participate in this project at all. If something happens in the future, this could completely break our relationship.¡±

 Chapter 11

    A Welcome Reception


    Yin Cheng felt that his daughter¡¯s words made sense. There were many projects, and he could just give Si Fan another one. However, if there was a problem with the quality of the project, the consequences would be too serious.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s change the investor. But, what reason should we use to explain this?¡± Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun. ¡°What are your thoughts? ¡±


    ¡°Dad, are you testing me?¡± Yin Xun asked jokingly.


    Yin Cheng also smiled as he nodded. since you chose to come and bring this up with me today, you should already have an idea, right? You¡¯ve been smart since you were young. Out of the three children in our family, you¡¯re the one who resembles me the most.¡±


    Yin Xun laughed out loud. ¡°Are you complimenting me or yourself? However, I did think of an excuse. When the new investor¡¯s funds arrive, we¡¯ll tell Si Fan that we¡¯ll work with him on a better project. That this time, he¡¯ll be fully in charge of the development. We can provide the technical staff. This way, not only will he be able to learn the real stuff, but when the project is done well, his reputation will also be well-known.¡±


    Yin Cheng tapped his thigh. Not bad, this method is feasible.


    Yin Xun continued, ¡°This is for outsiders to see. After all, it¡¯s not a good thing to kick out a partner in the middle of a project. At the same time, father, you can tell the public that Si Fan is your future son-in-law. This is our Yin family¡¯s business. In this way, no one can say that you don¡¯t follow the rules.¡±


    When Si Fan was kicked out, Yin Xun could focus on this project. As for what SI fan was thinking, she did not care. Even if Si Fan suspected that she was the one who sabotaged his plan after he found out that she was the new person in charge of Donggang modern city, she did not care.


    Si Fan did not have the ability to go against the Yin Corporation right now, so he naturally did not dare to fall out with them. He probably had to hold back his anger and continue to act as Yin Mo¡¯s considerate boyfriend.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun with a gratified expression. ¡°Ah Xun has grown up. In the future, I am very assured to hand the company over to you.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and did not say anything, but she was thinking in his heart. She still wanted to start her own business in the future. She did not like the real estate industry very much. She wanted to be the pioneer of the real rising industry in this era. Otherwise, it would be a waste of her knowledge as a time traveler.


    Furthermore, there were three children in the Yin family. If she were to take control of the Yin Corporation, it might damage the relationship between the siblings, and there would be a lot of trouble.


    Before she left the office, Yin Cheng instructed, ¡°Don¡¯t tell anyone about the car yet.¡±


    ¡°I understand.¡± Yin Xun made a ¡®quiet¡¯ hand gesture and blinked with a smile. Then, she walked back to her office.


    She pondered as she walked. Actually, there was something that Yin Xun was very worried about in the beginning, and that was the ¡°protagonist¡¯s aura.¡±


    This was extremely disadvantageous to her.


    If she did not have enough information, she could only defeat the ¡°protagonist¡¯s aura¡± through planning and cunning, which was very important.


    Yin Xun did not finish the entire novel. Although she knew the beginning of the plot, she did not read much of the middle part, so she could not completely predict the movement of the main character and the supporting characters.


    ¡®However, according to the theory of the ¡®butterfly effect¡¯, I¡¯m now the eye of the storm in the ¡®butterfly effect¡¯. The plot of the novel is likely to have a series of changes because of my appearance. I reckon that the plot in the future will not develop according to the settings of the book. So, it doesn¡¯t matter whether I can predict the plot or not. The most important thing is that I must control my own life.¡¯ Yin Xun thought to herself.


    Yin Xun returned to her office. Before she could finish reading the documents, her phone rang.


    Once she picked up the phone, Yin Mo¡¯s soft and tender voice came through. ¡°Sister, sorry to disturb you. Have you been busy recently¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m very busy,¡± Yin Xun interrupted her nonsense. ¡°So you can state your business in one sentence.¡±


    There was silence on the other end, as if she was frightened by Yin Xun¡¯s coldness. After a while, Yin Mo said softly, ¡°You¡¯ve just returned to the country. I¡¯ve invited a few friends to welcome you back. I don¡¯t know if you have the time¡­¡±


    A welcoming reception? Yin Xun laughed coldly. Did Si Fan think that she was as gullible as Yin Mo?


    ¡°I know,¡± Yin Xun interrupted Yin Mo. ¡°Send me the time and place.¡±


    Before Yin Mo could react, Yin Xun hung up the phone.


    On the other end of the phone, Si Fan¡¯s face was livid. Beside him, Si Fan¡¯s good friend whispered, ¡°This woman is so scary¡­ Sis-in-law, is she always this overbearing? Is she really your sister? She doesn¡¯t look like you at all!¡±


    Yin Mo shook her head innocently. ¡°I haven¡¯t seen her for many years. Maybe she has changed a lot¡­¡±


    When Si Fan heard Yin Xun interrupting Yin Mo firmly over the phone, he felt a strong sense of danger.

 Chapter 12

    Ignorance Of The Law


    In the past, Yin Mo was the little princess of the Yin family. No matter what Yin Mo said, Yin Cheng would give in.


    However, now Yin Xun was back, and she was a very strong woman, if Yin Xun took away Yin Cheng and his wife¡¯s love for Yin Mo¡­ Then Si Fan¡¯s plan would probably go astray.


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo¡¯s clear and innocent eyes and sighed with a headache. This woman was too stupid. She could not even sense danger!


    On Saturday evening, Yin Xun casually picked a red dress to wear, and then put on a bright red lipstick.


    She looked at herself in the mirror. The words ¡°proud¡± and ¡°not to be trifled with¡± were written all over her body. She nodded her head in satisfaction and rushed to the location that Yin Mo had told her.


    Yin Xun arrived at Dawn Entertainment Club and asked the waiter for the room number. He then said to the two people behind him, ¡°This way,¡± he said.


    At the door of the room, Yin Xun pushed the door open and entered. She immediately smelled a mixture of alcohol, cigarettes, and fragrances.


    She strode in front of the crowd in her high heels and, as expected, saw Si Fan.


    There were eight people in the room, three women and five men, and they were all looking at Yin Xun.


    A man who was sitting next to Si Fan whistled at Yin Xun, then said to the person next to him, ¡°Damn, this girl is too hot. Her figure is really exciting!¡±


    Yin Xun and Yin Mo had completely different styles. If Yin Mo was as pure as a lotus flower, then Yin Xun was a delicate and dangerous rose with thorns. Her beautiful face revealed coldness and aggression. She looked at the other people in the room as if she was looking at trash. Her powerful aura even suppressed Si Fan.


    ¡°Sister, you¡¯re here¡­¡± Yin Mo greeted Yin Xun, but Yin Xun did not even look at her. She directly said towards the door, ¡°It¡¯s here. Come in.¡±


    Two men in police uniforms walked in.


    Everyone was shocked. The man who had whistled at Yin Xun jumped up. ¡°Why are there police?! We weren¡¯t whoring or gambling. Yin Xun, what are you doing?¡±


    Si Fan¡¯s eyes were also wide open. However, he quickly regained his composure and did not say anything.


    Yin Xun used her long fingers to point at one of the three women. ¡°That¡¯s her. Do you see her?¡±


    The two police officers were not blind. They took out their handcuffs and advanced toward the woman. ¡°You¡¯re Liu Ying, right? come with us!¡±


    Liu Ying was stunned. She did not understand what was going on at all. The group of them had originally prepared a whole bunch of activities to mess with Yin Xun. They had even specially placed a video camera in order to record Yin Xun making a fool of herself. However, who would have thought that Yin Xun would actually bring two police officers over and even let the police arrest her!


    ¡°What are you doing? I didn¡¯t commit any crime! Yin Xun, are you crazy? Do you think I won¡¯t sue you!¡± Liu Ying shouted madly.


    ¡°Sue me? I haven¡¯t even sued you for hitting my family¡¯s car, and you still want to sue me?¡± Yin Xun laughed. are you blind to the law? Police officer, when she¡¯s in there, you have to teach her some legal knowledge.¡±


    ¡°The car issue is already over! Yin Mo, didn¡¯t you say that you wouldn¡¯t pursue it? Were you lying to me? Are you jealous of me? You b*tch!¡± Liu Ying glared at Yin Mo with hatred.


    Yin Mo stood up in a panic. ¡°It wasn¡¯t me. I didn¡¯t call the police! Sister, what are you doing? Didn¡¯t we agree to not pursue Liu Ying for this?¡±


    ¡°The car isn¡¯t yours. I¡¯m not looking into the damage to the car, but I¡¯m looking into Liu Ying¡¯s intentional assault. Also, the surveillance footage showed that she ran away after a hit-and-run, which is even more serious. Not only do I want to arrest her, but I also want to send her to jail.¡± Yin Xun crossed her arms and spoke in a relaxed tone as if she was watching a show.


    ¡°In jail?¡± Liu Ying was about to faint. She struggled frantically. Si Fan, save me! Say something!¡±


    ¡°Stop arguing!¡± Si Fan¡¯s expression was extremely ugly. He did not look at Liu Ying but stared straight at Yin Xun. ¡°Miss Yin, we are here to welcome you today. Is this how you treat your friends? Would anyone still be friends with you if you told them? Let¡¯s settle this privately, why make it so ugly for everyone?¡±


    ¡°Friend?¡± Yin Xun glanced at the other people present. ¡°Mr. Si, you and I have a different definition of friends. Maybe it¡¯s because we¡¯re on different levels. It¡¯s your business if you¡¯re willing to make these friends, but I¡¯m not. As for what I should do, I¡¯m sorry, but it¡¯s not up to you to tell me what I want to do.¡±


    Yin Xun did not give Si Fan any face in front of so many people. Si Fan¡¯s pride as a man was greatly provoked, and he glared at Yin Xun with hatred in his eyes.

 Chapter 13

    Trap


    ¡°Very good, very good, Miss Yin. I hope that you will not regret what you have done today in the future.¡± After he finished speaking, Si Fan turned to Liu Ying. ¡°I¡¯ll arrange a lawyer for you. You¡¯ll be fine.¡±


    Liu Ying was so scared that her face turned pale. She probably did not expect that even Si Fan could not solve this problem. She suddenly panicked and hugged the policeman¡¯s thigh, crying, ¡°I really didn¡¯t do it on purpose. I only had some wine at that time¡­¡±


    ¡°Drunk driving! That¡¯s even better, maybe you can even be sentenced to two more years. Liu Ying, you¡¯re so good when you¡¯re honest!¡± Yin Xun almost laughed out loud. She did not understand why the women who liked Si Fan did not know about the law.


    Liu Ying was quickly taken away by the police. She was still shouting Si Fan¡¯s name as she left.


    Yin Xun looked at the others. At this moment, no one dared to whistle at her. They did not even dare to look at her directly.


    From today onward, these people would have to take a detour whenever they saw her. Even if Si Fan wanted to use them to harm the Yin family, these people would have to think carefully whether they could afford to offend a woman called Yin Xun.


    This was also another reason why Yin Xun came over today. She wanted to send a signal to let everyone understand¡ªdo not mess with me, it will never end well for you.


    Yin Xun smiled in satisfaction, turned around, and left in her high heels. She did not bother with Yin Mo, who was calling out to her from behind.


    Yin Mo sat on the sofa dejectedly. She looked at Si Fan, whose face was ashen, and apologized on behalf of Yin Xun in a small voice, ¡°Si Fan, I¡¯m sorry. My sister definitely didn¡¯t do it on purpose¡­¡±


    Si Fan could not be bothered with her apologies. He said gloomily, ¡°How did she know that Liu Ying was here?¡±


    The people who would come today were not fixed in advance. He did not invite Liu Ying at the start, but after Liu Ying heard that he was going to accompany Yin Mo, she was extremely jealous and insisted on coming over.


    So, how did Yin Xun know that Liu Ying had come?


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, Yin Mo¡¯s entire body trembled. After a long time, she said with a trembling voice, ¡°I¡­¡±


    Not long ago, Yin Xun had asked her who would be coming tonight. Yin Mo had said that they were some friends, so Yin Xun asked her, ¡°Are Liu Ying, Zhang Xin, and Jiang Lan all here?¡±


    At that time, Yin Mo did not know why Yin Xun would know the names of her good friends. In addition, Yin Xun¡¯s tone sounded so natural, so she automatically replied, ¡°Only Liu Ying is here.¡±


    Yin Xun did not say anything after that.


    It was only then that Yin Mo realized why Yin Xun had asked her that.


    Yin Xun had actually been trying to get information out of her at that time!


    However, how did Yin Xun know the names of her good friends?


    If Yin Xun had only mentioned Liu Ying, then she would probably have realized that something was wrong.


    However, Yin Xun mentioned Zhang Xin and Jiang Lan, so Yin Mo did not think too much about it.


    Seeing Yin Mo¡¯s reaction, Si Fan knew that the info had been leaked from Yin Mo. After asking about the details of the matter, his expression was very scary. Yin Mo was so scared that her entire body trembled. She carefully held onto Si Fan¡¯s sleeve. ¡°Si Fan, I¡¯m sorry, I¡­¡±


    Si Fan waved his hand impatiently, and Yin Mo instantly fell onto the coffee table. The wine bottle fell on her body, and she was in such a sorry state that she did not dare to raise her head.


    Si Fan did not even look at Yin Mo. He clenched his fist, and Yin Xun¡¯s proud and hateful face appeared in his mind.


    This woman was too scary. She had just returned to the country, but she had already investigated her sister¡¯s best friend. She even gotten information in advance just to attend an ordinary banquet.


    How cautious and scheming was she?!


    Looking at Yin Mo, who was slowly getting up from the coffee table, Si Fan thought in disdain, ¡®They were both daughters of Yin Cheng, but why was one so smart and the other as stupid as a pig?¡¯


    Si Fan took in a deep breath and calmed his breathing. He then coldly said to Yin Mo, ¡°Call your dad and tell him not to pursue Liu Ying¡¯s matter any further.¡±


    ¡­


    Yin Xun hummed a song that was out of tune as she returned home. The moment he entered the house, he heard Yin Cheng on the phone.


    ¡°Alright, Momo. Don¡¯t bother about this matter anymore. Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s not that serious a matter of going to jail. Your older sister is just scaring you. It¡¯s just going to be a few days in jail¡­¡± Yin Cheng was just speaking when he saw Yin Xun sitting in front of him.


    Yin Xun took a handful of sunflower seeds from the table and started to eat them leisurely.


    Seeing that Yin Cheng was looking at him, Yin Xun waved her hand and signaled him to continue making the call and not to bother about her.


    On the phone, Yin Mo¡¯s voice sounded like she was crying. ¡°But what if Si Fan thinks that I told my sister about this on purpose? What if he thinks that I¡¯m a cruel woman and wants to break up with me?¡±


    Yin Xun was sitting close to Yin Cheng, and she could faintly hear the word ¡°break up.¡±


    Break up? There was such a good thing?


    Yin Xun did not understand why Yin Mo was crying. She should immediately go to the store and buy two strings of firecrackers to celebrate, okay?


    Yin Cheng¡¯s thoughts were similar to Yin Xun¡¯s.

 Chapter 14

    Moving House


    Ever since he found out that there was a high possibility that Si Fan was suspicious, Yin Cheng felt that Si Fan¡¯s intelligence was only for treachery and scheming. He no longer had a good impression of this man. When he heard Yin Mo¡¯s words, he immediately said, ¡°So be it. If he wants to break up with you for an unrelated woman, it just means that he doesn¡¯t love you that much.¡±


    Hearing that the she was still crying, Yin Cheng continued, ¡°There are still many available young men in the family and company. When the time comes, I¡¯ll pick a better one for you¡­¡±


    Yin Xun listened as Yin Cheng patiently persuaded Yin Mo to break up, but she could not be bothered to listen any longer. She stretched her back lazily, got up, and returned to her room.


    Yin Xun knew that it was impossible for Yin Cheng to persuade Yin Mo. To put it nicely, Yin Mo was a person who was deeply in love. To put it bluntly, she was love-struck to the point of madness.


    However, she still had to go through the proper procedures. As things developed, there was always a process. Once Yin Cheng tried his best and realizes that there was no hope for Yin Mo, he would understand that he had to make a choice between Yin Mo and his family.


    ¡­


    At this moment, at Dawn Entertainment Club, Yin Mo helplessly listened to her father¡¯s words as he persuaded her to break up with Si Fan. She would look at Si Fan nervously from time to time.


    The other people in the room had already left, and only Si Fan and Yin Mo were left. Si Fan did not say anything, and only Yin Mo and Yin Cheng¡¯s conversation could be heard in the room. The speakerphone call made the atmosphere even more tense.


    Yin Mo saw that Si Fan¡¯s expression had changed from ugly to cold, and she knew that Si Fan must be even angrier now.


    ¡°Dad, I¡­ I¡¯ll hang up first. You should rest early.¡± Yin Mo did not dare to let Yin Cheng continue. After she hung up the phone, she said to Si Fan in a panic, ¡°Si Fan, don¡¯t blame my father. He loves me too much¡­ I won¡¯t break up with you, believe me!¡±


    Si Fan coldly shook off Yin Mo¡¯s hand. At this moment, he was thinking about an important question in his heart. Why did Yin Cheng¡¯s attitude towards him change so drastically after Yin Xun returned? Yin Cheng clearly liked him a lot and even agreed to work together with him.


    However, just now on the phone, Yin Cheng had clearly revealed that he disliked him!


    Could it be that Yin Xun, that d*mn woman, had said bad things about him in front of Yin Cheng? It must be it!


    If Yin Cheng believed Yin Xun¡¯s words, then it could only mean that in Yin Cheng¡¯s heart, Yin Xun was more important than Yin Mo. That was why he would easily believe Yin Xun.


    Si Fan¡¯s hand trembled slightly.


    The situation was getting worse. He had originally thought that Yin Mo was the Yin family¡¯s most pampered little princess, and it would be enough to control her.


    However, now that Yin Xun was back, everything was different!


    Si Fan grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s wrist tightly. ¡°You don¡¯t have to come and look for me for a while. Stay at home and accompany your parents. Show them more concern and try to please them. I will tell you what you need to say, you hear me?¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Si Fan with tears in her eyes. ¡°But Si Fan, I want to be with you¡­¡±


    After she had began her relationship with Si Fan, she would often spend the night at his house. The two of them would make love like crazy from the balcony to the pool, from the kitchen to the bathroom¡­ She did not want to leave Si Fan.


    ¡°Listen to me!¡± Si Fan roared in an unquestionable tone.


    Yin Mo lowered her head, and she nodded while crying.


    ¡­


    It was Sunday. The alarm clock rang, and Yin Xun woke up. She changed her clothes and jogged two rounds around the small district. After she came back, she took a shower and ate breakfast. When the Morning News had finished broadcasting, she had also finished eating, and she gave Yin Cheng a call.


    ¡°Hello, Ah Xun, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I¡¯m going to move out.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was not one of discussion, but one of informing Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Are you not used to living at home? I¡¯m worried about you, a young lady, living alone¡­ Are you in a relationship like Momo? You¡¯ve just returned to the country and you already have a boyfriend?¡±


    Yin Xun had to admire Yin Cheng¡¯s imagination. After she came back, she had been so busy in the company all day long that she was like a spinning top. Where would she have the time to find a man?


    ¡°I don¡¯t have a boyfriend. I¡¯m just used to living alone overseas. I¡¯m more used to living alone. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll come home often to see you and mom.¡± Yin Xun spoke.


    ¡°Alright, where do you want to move to? I¡¯ve prepared a few houses for you under your name. If there¡¯s nothing you like, I¡¯ll buy you another one.¡±


    ¡°76 Angel Street. I¡¯ve already paid the rent. I might not live here for long, so there¡¯s no need to buy a house. I have to work tomorrow, so I plan to move in in the afternoon.¡± Yin Xun was a very efficient person. She had already arranged everything.


    ¡°So fast? Aren¡¯t you in too much of a hurry? How was the security of that place? Daddy will send a few bodyguards over for you¡­¡± Yin Cheng was worried and started babbling.

 Chapter 15

    Persuasion


    Yin Xun responded very patiently before Yin Cheng sighed, ¡°Sigh, you¡¯re all grown up now. I don¡¯t want to be too strict with you, but you¡¯ve been independent since you were young, so I¡¯m not worried about you. If only Momo could be like you¡­¡±


    Yin Xun hung up the phone, contacted the moving company, and then sealed the last box.


    She had already prepared moving out.


    Yin Xun thought, ¡®After so many things have happened, Si Fan might be on guard. Other than thinking of new ways to deal with me and the Yin family, he¡¯ll probably get Yin Mo to come home and monitor me.¡¯


    She was not afraid of Yin Mo¡¯s surveillance. She simply did not want to see this woman. If she saw Yin Mo, she might be so upset that she would eat half a bowl less.


    Also, moving out would make it easier for her to do things. Sometimes, she would have to take care of her family at home.


    The last reason was that she wanted to use herself as bait to lure Si Fan into attacking her.


    Even though Si Fan might not choose to do that, but if he really did act rashly and hit her, then Yin Xun would be able to create a weakness and have a chance to restrict him through legal means!


    Of course, Yin Xun would protect herself. This was the most basic thing.


    The world she lived in in her previous life was not very peaceful. There would occasionally be attacks on women on the news. People like Yin Xun naturally could not tolerate uncontrollable accidents in their lives, so she often went to the gym in her spare time and even learned Judo. After her strength became stronger, she went to learn boxing.


    In this world, Yin Xun¡¯s physical fitness was a little weak, so she had been strengthening her training. Although currently she could not compare to her fitness in the other world, it was enough to protect herself.


    However, there would always be accidents, and Yin Xun could not guarantee that all would be fine.


    However, she understood that if she wanted to do anything, she had to take a certain risk. The greater the reward, the greater the risk. Yin Xun hated gambling, but she could accept the risks that existed objectively. She would make the most thorough preparations to increase the possibility of success.


    In the afternoon, the moving company¡¯s people arrived very quickly. Yin Xun saw the boxes being moved into the truck one by one and heaved a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Sister, what are you doing?¡± A surprised voice suddenly sounded. Yin Xun turned her head and saw Yin Mo, who was wearing a white dress.


    Yin Xun furrowed her brows, and she thought to herself, ¡®Why does Yin Mo still want to annoy me before I leave?¡¯


    ¡°Moving.¡± Yin Xun replied coldly.


    Yin Mo was stunned. Yin Xun wanted to move out? Did Si Fan not say that Yin Xun wanted to fight with her for her parents¡¯ love? Why is Yin Xun actually moving out now?


    However, Yin Mo immediately thought of the task that Si Fan had given her¡ªto monitor Yin Xun.


    Yin Mo frantically reached out to stop Yin Xun, who was about to get into the car. ¡°Older Sister, why are you moving away?¡± she asked. Isn¡¯t it good for us to live together as a family?¡±


    Yin Xun thought to herself, ¡®Do you want me to tell you because I don¡¯t want to see your face?¡¯


    ¡°Why do you care so much? I¡¯m your sister. It¡¯s good enough that I don¡¯t interfere in your business.¡± Yin Xun scratched her hair impatiently. ¡°Move. I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    ¡°Sister! We haven¡¯t seen each other for so many years. I still wanted to spend more time with you. Do you still remember when we were young, we would lie on the balcony and watch the stars together¡­¡± Yin Mo anxiously tried to make Yin Xun stay.


    Yin Xun had inherited the original owner¡¯s memories, so she naturally knew that what Yin Mo said was true. She thought helplessly in her heart. ¡®If only you didn¡¯t grow up. Why did you become like this when you grew up?¡¯


    ¡°You can watch the stars with your boyfriend now.¡± Yin Xun said coldly.


    ¡°He¡­ He won¡¯t look at the stars with me¡­¡± Yin Mo lowered her head. She seemed to be a little disappointed, and a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.


    At this moment, Yin Xun¡¯s emotions were very complicated. She could feel Yin Mo¡¯s pain, and she tried to say, ¡°Si Fan doesn¡¯t seem to be that¡­ Nice with you. Are you really not going to consider breaking up with him?¡±


    Yin Mo was stunned for a moment, then she smiled gently and said, ¡°Everyone has their shortcomings. I have them too. Si Fan is indeed not attentive enough sometimes, but all of this is fine. If you love a person, you must also love his shortcomings!¡±


    Yin Xun wanted to give herself a slap. She should not have held any hope for Yin Mo!


    ¡°Alright, alright, alright. You can continue to love him. I¡¯m leaving. Goodbye,¡± Yin Xun said impatiently.


    ¡°Sister, where are you moving to? I¡¯ll go with you! I won¡¯t disturb your work or rest!¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes lit up as she thought of this idea.

 Chapter 16

    The Man In The Villa


    ¡°No!¡± Yin Xun simply could not take it anymore. She looked at Yin Mo coldly. ¡°I can already feel your reluctance to part with me, and I¡¯m really touched, but I want to live alone! If you have a boyfriend, I will have one in the future too. If I suddenly want to do some intimate and crazy things with my boyfriend, and we are having fun in the kitchen, you suddenly come in¡­¡±


    Yin Xun had not finished speaking when Yin Mo¡¯s face turned as red as an apple. Her breathing was a little hurried, and she looked at Yin Xun in shock.


    Even though Yin Mo and Si fan had done what Yin Xun said, how could Yin Xun directly say such a thing out loud! Would they turn red?


    Yin Xun looked at the flustered Yin Mo and smiled in satisfaction. ¡°So, goodbye.¡±


    When Yin Xun arrived at the villa, the villa had already been tidied up and was very clean.


    The villa was located in the Xicheng District, near the third ring road. A beautiful lake was next to the community, and the scenery was very pretty.


    Yin Xun opened the real-time monitoring software on her phone. At this moment, all the cameras installed in the villa were turned on. Other than the original six cameras in the villa, she had installed an additional 27 cameras.


    That¡¯s right, there were 33 cameras in total.


    Yin Xun¡¯s life now was much more valuable than her in the other world, and it was very likely that it would only become more and more valuable in the future. Anyway, she was the Young Miss of the Yin family now, and she had money. What was wrong with installing a few more surveillance cameras?


    The worker who installed the camera for her joked, ¡°Other people¡¯s houses are houses, but yours is a live streaming room!¡±


    Yin Xun took out two telescope from the paper box and installed them on the balcony. She was prepared to see the situation of the neighbors across the street at night.


    She did not have a hobby of peeking, but she just wanted to see if her neighbor was normal. After all, there were many perverts in this world, and she needed to eliminate this small possibility.


    Yin Xun put everything in place. Because the house was big enough, she put treadmills, dumbbells, and other fitness equipment on the first floor. This way, even if the weather was bad, and she could not go out for a run, she could exercise at home.


    When it was almost seven o¡¯ clock, Secretary Mary carried two large bags of fresh ingredients over and helped Yin Xun pack them into the refrigerator. Yin Xun thanked her, ¡°Thanks for your trouble. Today is considered overtime.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine,¡± Mary replied politely. ¡°I¡¯d come tomorrow, even if I didn¡¯t come today.¡±


    Even though Mary was so considerate and understanding, Yin Xun did not invite her to stay for dinner. After Mary left, Yin Xun made a simple dinner for himself.


    After dinner, she went to the second floor and went to the telescope, ready to observe the situation of her neighbors.


    From her position, she could see three villas. The one on the west side was temporarily uninhabited, and the weeds in the courtyard had not been removed. There were two children playing with rubber balls in the courtyard of the villa on the south side. The villa on the east side¡­ Yin Xun¡¯s hand that was holding the telescope trembled slightly.


    Facing the balcony of her room was also the bedroom of the villa on the east side. At this moment, a man walked out of the bedroom half-naked. Through the telescope, the man¡¯s well-built figure was particularly clear, even the two pink spots on his chest were clearly seen.


    Yin Xun was stunned for a few seconds. Just as she was about to put down her telescope, the man suddenly looked in her direction.


    Yin Xun knew that he had seen him because the man revealed a smile and then spread his hands as if to say, ¡°Are you done?¡±


    Yin Xun took a deep breath, put down her telescope, and calmly returned to his room. She closed the sliding door of the balcony and closed the curtains.


    It¡¯s fine. That man does not know her. It¡¯s fine even if he thinks she¡¯s a pervert.


    Yin Xun¡¯s mental strength was very good. She silently repeated this sentence twice and fell asleep with peace of mind.


    At this moment, in the villa on the east side, the man saw the woman opposite him leave. He threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray and then made a phone call.


    ¡°Who¡¯s the one who just moved next door?¡±


    A few seconds later, the other party replied respectfully, ¡°Mr. Fang, the person who just moved in is the eldest daughter of Yin corporation¡¯s Mr. Yin Cheng. Her name is Yin Xun. She¡¯s 23 years old this year and has been studying abroad for 8 years. She just returned at the beginning of this month and is currently¡­¡±


    When Fang Yao heard Yin Cheng¡¯s name, he understood that Yin Cheng¡¯s daughter had only moved to the villa opposite by chance and had no other intentions. He did not wait for the person on the other end of the phone to finish reporting and hung up the phone.


    The next day, Yin Xun woke up early and saw that the weather outside was a little gloomy. She took out her phone to take a look. The weather forecast said that there would only be light rain in the afternoon, so Yin Xun put on her sportswear and went out for a run.


    Even though there was a treadmill at home, Yin Xun still preferred to run outdoors. When she was outdoors, she could breathe in the morning air and observe the world that she had just woken up from. This made her mood more positive. This was a mental influence that indoor exercise could not bring.

 Chapter 17

    Steel


    Yin Xun had already studied the map of the neighborhood. She ran around the predetermined route for about ten minutes when she suddenly saw a man running towards her from not far away.


    Yin Xun¡¯s steady heartbeat was chaotic for two seconds.


    Her heart was not beating fast because she suddenly had feelings for this man, but because the man in front of her¡­ was the half-naked man that she saw through the telescope last night!


    Yin Xun¡¯s running speed did not change, and she ran towards the man with a blank expression.


    That man, the moment the two of them met, glanced at her.


    The two of them did not speak.


    Yin Xun returned to the villa, took a change of clothes, and went to the bathroom to take a shower. The warm water fell on her body, and she thought of the man¡¯s gaze.


    That gaze was very calm, as if it was the gaze of a stranger looking at another stranger.


    However, Yin Xun knew very well that they were not complete strangers. Just yesterday, she had met her neighbor through the telescope.


    Yesterday, she did not take it to heart because she felt that the two of them would not have much interaction in the future. However, it was different now. She did not expect her neighbor to have the habit of jogging in the morning. They would definitely meet more often in the future.


    Yin Xun could not accept the man in the telescope looking at her with such an incomprehensible gaze again and again!


    No matter what he was thinking, Yin Xun could not take it.


    Control-loving people would have OCD in certain areas. Yin Xun was having OCD right now. She took three minutes longer than usual to shower.


    After taking a shower, Yin Xun put on her clothes and went to work. This time, she did not bump into that man.


    Before stepping into the office, Yin Xun made a decision in her heart. She had to deal with that man.


    Otherwise, she would not even be happy running every morning.


    ¡­


    When they arrived at the company, Yin Xun asked Mary to bring some documents and materials to the construction site with her.


    Mary was the secretary that Yin Xun had hired online. She was the one who had personally interviewed her. She was currently the one that she trusted the most among the company¡¯s employees. Of course, it was only a relative trust.


    The two of them arrived at the construction site. Yin Xun did not even hesitate and went straight to the warehouse.


    Today was the day to restock the warehouse. There was nothing special about it. The old man who guarded the warehouse was still napping on the rattan chair, and several young workers were moving steel from the truck next to him.


    When Yin Xun arrived, no one noticed her.


    After two minutes, Yin Xun asked Mary to wake up the old man who was guarding the warehouse and get him to call the person in charge over.


    The dazed old man ran to call the warehouse manager, Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming was the person in charge of the project at the bottom level. He had never seen Yin Xun before. After hearing of Yin Xun¡¯s identity, he was shocked and hurriedly said, ¡°Manager Yin, are you here for an inspection? Why don¡¯t you come to my office? It¡¯s going to rain soon¡­¡±


    ¡°Feeling guilty?¡± Yin Xun looked at Zhao Ming and sneered.


    Although Zhao Ming was flustered at first, he did not take Yin Xun seriously. He saw that Yin Xun was dressed exquisitely and beautifully. He guessed that she did not know anything, so he just wanted to get her to leave as soon as possible.


    However, when Yin Xun asked this, Zhao Ming¡¯s eyes widened and he looked at Yin Xun in shock.


    Yin Xun could not be bothered to talk nonsense with him. He looked at the workers moving the things and said to Zhao Ming, ¡°Tell me, how much did you charge? Who gave it to you? Where¡¯s the account book? ¡±


    The cold sweat on Zhao Ming¡¯s head dripped down. He forced a smile and said, Manager Yin, I don¡¯t understand what you¡¯re saying¡­¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t like to say the same thing twice.¡± Yin Xun looked at Zhao Ming indifferently. Zhao Ming felt that Yin Xun¡¯s eyes seemed to have seen through everything.


    He could no longer lie under such a gaze, so he could only tell her everything.


    It was almost noon when she was done with the construction site. It started drizzling, and Mary was about to make a reservation at a nearby restaurant when the company called.


    After Mary hung up the phone, her expression changed drastically. ¡°Manager Yin, this is bad. Liu Yi and Liu Cheng have come to the company. They look like they¡¯re here to cause trouble. The chairman asked you not to return to the office for the time being.¡±


    Yin Xun already had information on all of Yin Group¡¯s business partners, so she naturally knew who Liu Yi and Liu Cheng were.


    Liu Yi was Liu Ying¡¯s father, and Liu Cheng was Liu Ying¡¯s brother.


    When Mary saw Yin Xun not saying anything, she thought that he was prepared to listen to Yin Cheng¡¯s words and not return to the office. Mary heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the batch of steel that was about to be transported to the city¡¯s testing center. She asked in confusion, ¡°We only found out that there was something wrong with this batch of steel today. They shouldn¡¯t have known about it so quickly¡­¡±


    Yin Xun stood up slowly, and Mary hurriedly held an umbrella for him.


    ¡°They didn¡¯t come here for that. Let¡¯s go back to the company.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Mary wanted to say something, but when she saw Yin Xun¡¯s expression, she fell silent in the end.

 Chapter 18

    Looking For Trouble


    Even though the Chairman¡¯s orders were important, Mary did not forget who recruited her.


    The two of them returned to the office very quickly. What Yin Xun did not expect was that Yin Mo was actually there too. When she saw Yin Xun, she walked up anxiously. ¡°Sister, why didn¡¯t you pick up the phone? I was so worried!¡±


    It was only then that Yin Xun remembered that after she moved, Yin Mo had called her non-stop to ask about her, so she had blocked Yin Mo¡¯s phone. It was probably Si Fan who asked Yin Mo to call and ask. She even asked which block she lived in and whether Yin Xun needed her help to hire a nanny.


    ¡°Why did you call me?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Yin Mo met Yin Xun¡¯s gaze and shrank back a little nervously and fearfully.


    ¡°Did Si Fan ask you to call me?¡± Yin Xun understood.


    ¡°No!¡± Yin Mo did not understand why Yin Xun would guess so accurately. She did not even say anything, but she tried her best to hide it. ¡°It¡¯s Liu Ying¡¯s father and brother. They¡¯re here to question father. Sister, why don¡¯t you apologize to Uncle Liu and the others? ¡±


    ¡°Apologize? Yin Mo, is this the first day you met me?¡± Yin Xun laughed sarcastically. ¡°If you want to apologize, you can do it yourself. You can even kneel. Don¡¯t drag me into it.¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s face turned pale, and she said with a trembling voice, ¡°Sister, I¡¯m doing this for your own good. We¡¯re still working with Uncle Liu. If our relationship breaks down, the project will also have problems¡­¡±


    ¡°Yo, you know quite a lot.¡± Yin Xun said.


    It should be said that Si Fan had explained things clearly. He was afraid that Yin Xun did not know that begging for mercy from Liu Yi and the others was her only choice.


    It seemed that this man¡¯s self-esteem was really strong, and he wanted to see her make a fool of herself so badly.


    ¡°Sister¡­¡±


    Yin Mo still wanted to continue persuading her, but Yin Xun directly pushed the door open and entered the Chairman¡¯s office. The moment she entered the office, the few people inside turned around to look at her. Yin Cheng instantly slammed a hand on the table. ¡°What are you doing here? Don¡¯t you know how to knock on the door? Get out!¡±


    Yin Xun knew that Yin Cheng was pretending to be fierce because he wanted her to leave quickly. After all, Liu Yi and Liu Cheng were here for her.


    ¡°Hold on, uncle Yin. Your daughter has done a horrible thing. Naturally, she has to bear the consequences. She actually sent my sister to the police station. I will seek justice for my sister today!¡± Liu Cheng stared at Yin Xun fiercely.


    ¡°It¡¯s justice. After all, she was arrested by the police. If you want to go to jail in her place, why don¡¯t you go to the police station yourself?¡± Yin Xun laughed coldly.


    ¡°Old Yin, what¡¯s with your daughter¡¯s attitude!¡± Liu Yi slammed his palm on the table. ¡°We¡¯ve known each other for so many years, yet you let your daughter bully my child? Believe it or not, I¡¯ll break off our partnership!¡±


    The Liu family was in the steel business and had always been working with the Yin family. They were one of the Yin family¡¯s most important suppliers. If there were any problems with the steel supply, it would severely delay the progress of the project and might even cause the project to halt. By then, they would probably lose hundreds of thousands of dollars every day!


    Even if they looked for a new steel supplier, it would take time. If the other supplier saw that the project was waiting to use steel, they might even maliciously raise the price.


    Thus, Liu Yi¡¯s threat was indeed very lethal. Yin Cheng fell silent on the spot, and after a long while, he said, ¡°Old Liu, don¡¯t go too far.¡±


    ¡°Am I going overboard? Your daughter is too much!¡± Liu Yi shouted arrogantly.


    Yin Cheng furrowed his brows and was about to negotiate with Liu Yi again when Yin Xun walked to the desk and slowly placed her phone on the table. He then gently pushed it towards Liu Yi.


    ¡°What, are you afraid?¡± Liu Yi sneered and glanced at Yin Xun. ¡°It¡¯s too late for you to be afraid. You don¡¯t know the immensity of heaven and earth, you stupid girl!¡±


    After Liu Yi finished, he glanced at Yin Xun¡¯s phone and said impatiently, ¡°Isn¡¯t this steel from our family? You¡­¡± Liu Yi¡¯s eyes widened as he grabbed Yin Xun¡¯s phone and zoomed in on the photo.


    Yin Xun was not in a hurry. She pulled a chair over and sat down, waiting for Liu Yi to finish reading.


    Liu Cheng did not see Liu Yi¡¯s expression and continued to threaten her, ¡°If you don¡¯t give me an explanation and publicly apologize to my sister on the internet, I won¡¯t let this go! Yin Xun, what¡¯s with that expression? Don¡¯t you know that it¡¯s your family that¡¯s begging us to continue working with you¡­¡±


    ¡°Liu Cheng! Get over here!¡± Liu Yi¡¯s angry roar interrupted Liu Cheng.


    Liu Cheng was stunned. He hesitated for a few seconds before he walked toward Liu Yi.


    When he came to Liu Yi, Liu Yi grabbed his ear and tugged Liu Cheng¡¯s head so that Liu Cheng had to look at the photo on the phone. ¡°What is this? Where did you get this steel?¡±


    The steel in the photo had the label ¡°Made by Baogang¡± on it.

 Chapter 19

    Turning The Situation Around


    The luster of the steel was much dimmer than that of the qualified steel, and the color was not right.


    Laymen might not be able to see the subtle differences in this kind of steel, but Liu Yi had been in the steel business for so many years, and his eyes were more accurate than machines. He could tell at a glance that this steel was made of low-quality raw materials and was not qualified at all. If it was used in construction, it might not even be able to withstand a medium typhoon.


    Liu Cheng was like a duck that had its neck grabbed, unable to even speak.


    The situation had completely reversed, and even Yin Cheng was a little confused.


    Yin Xun slowly took the phone back and said in a calm voice, ¡°Uncle Liu, I¡¯m calling you ¡°uncle¡± on account of our many years of cooperation. But your family provided low-quality steel to our construction site. If there is a problem with the construction and it causes a major safety accident, who will bear the responsibility? Who would go to jail? Who will pay for lives lost?¡±


    Liu Yi¡¯s face turned paler with every word Yin Xun said.


    Yin Xun was right. Compared to Liu Ying¡¯s arrest, the abuse of low-quality steel was not even worth mentioning. If the Yin group wanted to hold them accountable, the Liu family would not be able to survive in this industry.


    Liu Yi panicked and slapped Liu Cheng¡¯s face hard. ¡°You black-hearted dog! How can you be so shameless? Don¡¯t you know that you¡¯ll die if you do this?! You b*stard! I¡¯ll beat you to death!¡±


    Liu Yi¡¯s slaps were merciless, and soon, Liu Cheng¡¯s face was swollen.


    Yin Cheng saw that Yin Xun was handling things so smoothly and did not need his help at all. A smile appeared on his face. This was exactly what he wanted to do.


    However, he wanted to wait for Liu Yi and his son to make a big deal out of this matter. The father and son really made him angry. However, when he saw that Liu Cheng was about to be beaten to death by Liu Yi, the anger in his heart turned into helplessness. ¡°Alright, stop hitting him. If you keep hitting him, he¡¯ll die. If you want to hit him, go home and do it there. Take your time. Don¡¯t do it here.¡±


    Liu Yi stopped and forced a remorseful smile at Yin Cheng. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Old Yin. I didn¡¯t discipline him properly this time. I will definitely beat this little brat to death when I get back. On account that we have known each other for so many years¡­ Give me another chance. I will definitely prepare the steel you need immediately. There will definitely be no problem this time!¡±


    Yin Cheng did not reply immediately and only said, ¡°I¡¯ll think about it. You can go.¡±


    Liu Yi dragged Liu Cheng away. Before they left, Liu Cheng cried and said, ¡°Dad, I really didn¡¯t know. At that time, Liu Ying was making a fuss about being in charge of this batch of steel. Didn¡¯t you always say that you wanted her to get serious? I handed it over to her¡­¡±


    Liu Yi slapped Liu Cheng¡¯s head again and said, ¡°You¡¯re asking her to send our entire family to their deaths!¡±


    Liu Yi and Liu Cheng left. Yin Cheng rubbed his brows and looked at Yin Xun. ¡°Ah Xun, how did you know there would be a problem with the steel? Fortunately, you discovered it early. Otherwise, things would have been difficult.¡±


    Yin Xun was silent for two seconds.


    She could not possibly say that it was because she had read the novel that she knew that there would be problems with the steel, right?


    ¡°This is the first project I¡¯m in charge of. I¡¯m afraid that if something goes wrong, you¡¯ll be put in a difficult position during the Board of Directors meeting, so I¡¯ve been very careful in all aspects.¡± Yin Xun lied through her teeth.


    ¡°You did well. I¡¯m getting old. I didn¡¯t even know that I was being conned. If I only realized the problem after the project was completed, it would be too late. Ah Xun, thank you for this.¡±


    ¡°No, it¡¯s my duty,¡± Yin Xun hurriedly replied, overwhelmed by the unexpected gratitude.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t continue to use those low-quality steel, did you?¡±


    ¡°Of course not. I stopped that batch of steel when I went back that day. However, I took over a little late after all, so some had already been used. I¡¯ll find a chance to fix the rest in the future.¡± Yin Xun replied.


    Yin Cheng glanced at her. ¡°You¡¯ve done well. I didn¡¯t expect you to know how to handle it without my help. You¡¯re my daughter indeed. In the future, I can hand over all projects to you without worry. We don¡¯t need to rush this time. I¡¯ll re-sign the contract with Old Liu later and take into account the loss. Maybe the price of this batch of steel will be reduced by half.¡±


    Yin Cheng had already started to consider the issue of benefits.


    Yin Xun could understand his choice. Although they might not work with the Liu family in the future again, they could not change the supplier for this project yet.


    The use of low-quality steel was a scandal after all. Although the problem was with the Liu family, if it was blown up, Yin Corporation¡¯s reputation would be bad. People might say that Yin Corporation chose to use low-quality steel deliberately.

 Chapter 20

    Don¡¯t Come To Work Anymore


    The best solution was to continue the cooperation, but after this incident, the Yin Corporation could reduce the purchase price of steel to a very low price, which was a good thing in a bad situation.


    After they finished discussing all of this, Yin Xun and Yin Cheng walked out of the office. Yin Mo hurriedly came over and asked, ¡°How¡¯s the situation? Why does Uncle Liu look so angry? Did the discussion break down?¡±


    Yin Xun glanced at her. ¡°It¡¯s rare to see you so concerned about the company¡¯s matters.¡±


    Yin Mo immediately lowered her head in panic. ¡°I, I was just worried about you guys¡­¡±


    Yin Mo was about to ask something else when she suddenly saw Liu Yi approaching from not far away. She hurriedly greeted Liu Yi. ¡°Uncle Liu, you¡¯re back?¡±


    Seeing that Liu Yi was still angry, Yin Mo said hurriedly, ¡°Uncle Liu, don¡¯t be angry. I¡¯ll apologize to you on behalf of my sister. I¡¯ll pay the bail for Liu Ying and definitely won¡¯t pursue damages¡­¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s hand trembled violently, and she almost could not help but give Yin Mo another slap.


    Yin Cheng was stunned for two seconds before he hurriedly said, ¡°Momo, this matter has nothing to do with your older sister. She did not do anything wrong. As for your Uncle Liu¡­ he has gave us inferior steel . It was your older sister who found out about this. It was all thanks to your older sister. If not for her, we would have been in big trouble!¡±


    Yin Mo was confused for a moment and looked at Liu Yi. Liu Yi knew that he was in the wrong in this matter, and he lowered his head in shame.


    When Yin Mo saw Liu Yi¡¯s guilty expression, she felt very bad. She grabbed Liu Yi¡¯s hand and said sincerely, ¡°It¡¯s okay, Uncle Liu. You don¡¯t have to blame yourself. It¡¯s not a big deal. Just change to another batch of steel. Please don¡¯t take it to heart. We won¡¯t blame you.¡±


    Yin Xun was speechless.


    Yin Cheng was speechless!


    Even Liu Yi was shocked as he looked at Yin Cheng and Yin Xun in confusion.


    Yin Xun sneered and said to Liu Yi, ¡°Uncle Liu, you don¡¯t have to take Yin Mo¡¯s words to heart. She might not have woken up today, and she was talking in her sleep just now. Furthermore, she is just an ordinary employee in our company, and her words have no meaning.¡±


    ¡°Sister¡­¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were filled with tears of grievance.


    ¡°You can shut up if you don¡¯t know anything, but don¡¯t make me say it a second time.¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo coldly, and Yin Mo was so scared that she did not dare to speak.


    Yin Cheng sighed and thought that it was a good thing that his eldest daughter was sensible. Otherwise, he would have been angered to death by Yin Mo.


    Liu Yi rubbed his hands and said in embarrassment, ¡°I understand. I¡¯ll take responsibility for this. I came back to ask you out for dinner as an apology .¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. We understand your apology, but work can¡¯t be solved with a meal. You should do what you need to do. Uncle Liu, you should understand this more than I do,¡± Yin Xun said politely and coldly.


    Liu Yi looked at Yin Xun and said to Yin Cheng with emotion, ¡°You have a good daughter¡­¡±


    After Liu Yi left, Yin Mo asked carefully, ¡°Dad, what¡¯s going on¡­¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t ask anymore. You don¡¯t know anything. Yin Cheng had completely lost all hope in Yin Mo. in the future, you have to listen to everything that your older sister says. You have to do whatever she says.¡±


    ¡°Why!¡± Yin Mo was a little displeased. ¡°Isn¡¯t Uncle Liu your friend? Older Sister should not have treated Liu Ying like that. Didn¡¯t you say that we have to be kind? If she keeps doing this, how are our families going to keep in touch in the future?¡±


    Yin Cheng could feel his blood pressure rising, but he could only patiently explain, ¡°Being kind doesn¡¯t mean that you have to let people walk all over you, understand?¡±


    ¡°But how can we not suffer losses when doing business? With success, there would naturally be failure. Wasn¡¯t this a very normal thing? Sometimes, only by giving in can you let others feel your sincerity, right?¡± Yin Mo blinked her big innocent eyes and retorted seriously.


    Yin Xun saw that Yin Cheng was on the verge of getting a seizure and said indifferently, ¡°You¡¯re right.¡±


    Yin Mo did not think that Yin Xun would actually agree with her. She had just revealed a bright smile when Yin Xun said coldly, ¡°So you don¡¯t need to work at the company tomorrow. You can go wherever you want, but don¡¯t let me see your face here.¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°Why?¡± She then looked at Yin Cheng and pleaded. ¡°Dad, you won¡¯t agree to it, right?¡± I¡¯m also a member of the company and I¡¯m working for the company. Why can¡¯t Older Sister let me come to work?¡±


    Ever since Yin Mo started dating Si Fan, she stopped working at Si Fan¡¯s company. Yin Cheng arranged a position in his company for her that had very little to do, and she could even sit in her office and play games the entire day.


    Yin Mo came to work in a luxury car every day. She ate snacks, watched television, and chatted with her colleagues. Her days at work passed just like that.

 Chapter 21

    Has Your Heart Changed?


    Yin Mo had a job in her family¡¯s company. Although she did not have to do any work, at least she had a job in name, and she was spending her own salary. If Yin Xun did not allow her to come to work, what would she do with her career in the future? She was already used to this kind of life and did not want to go to another company to start over.


    ¡°Daddy~¡± Yin Mo tugged Yin Cheng¡¯s arm and acted pitifully. She knew that Yin Cheng doted on her the most, and he would definitely not listen to Yin Xun.


    When Yin Cheng was being tugged by Yin Mo like this, his heart instantly felt reluctant. Yin Xun and Yin Mo were both his precious daughters, and he could not bear to scold either of them.


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯m just not letting you work in the company. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll increase your allowance. If you don¡¯t have enough, you can ask me for more. Go do something you like.¡± Yin Cheng patiently comforted Yin Mo.


    Upon hearing that Yin Cheng would give her more pocket money, Yin Mo was happy and obediently nodded her head in agreement. She said with a slight reluctance, ¡°Alright then. I¡¯ll stay at home and help out if the company needs anything in the future.¡±


    ¡°Good, good, Ah Mo is so sensible.¡± Yin Cheng heaved a sigh of relief and gently rubbed the top of Yin Mo¡¯s head.


    Yin Xun crossed his arms in front of her chest and looked coldly at Yin Mo¡¯s pitiful expression. She laughed coldly in her heart, but she did not say anything. She had read so many novels and understood Yin Mo¡¯s character all too well.


    This kind of person loved to take advantage of others, but if the situation was reversed, they would immediately change their attitude. To deal with this kind of person, one had to give him a taste of their own medicine, fight fire with fire.


    After Yin Mo was done acting coquettishly with Yin Cheng, she turned around and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Sister, if you need my help, just call me. I can also help you share the burden with dad.¡±


    Yin Xun put on a fake smile and nodded in agreement, but she was complaining in her heart. ¡®You¡¯re not sharing father¡¯s burden. You¡¯re just adding to his troubles. If you really let Yin Mo help with the company¡¯s business, then the company will not be far from closing down.¡¯


    ¡°Oh right, Momo, Liu Ying has been arrested by the police and will probably be in jail for a while. Since you feel bad for her, why don¡¯t you go to the Liu family¡¯s company to help? It just so happens that there¡¯s a problem with their latest batch of raw materials, so they¡¯ll definitely be busy for a while. You can help them for free in Liu Ying¡¯s place.¡±


    Yin Xun suggested to Yin Mo with a serious expression. She did not seem to be joking at all.


    After hearing what she said, Yin Mo was stunned for a moment. She did not think that Yin Xun would ask her to help out at the Liu family¡¯s company. She quickly rejected her. ¡°No, no, no. Although I¡¯m very close to Liu Ying, I¡¯m an outsider after all. It¡¯s against the rules to help her family¡¯s company.¡±


    Yin Cheng saw Yin Xun¡¯s intention and did not say anything.


    ¡°How can you be considered an outsider? Don¡¯t you have a good relationship with the Liu family? Since you have such a good relationship, it¡¯s only right for you to help.¡± Yin Xun stared into Yin Mo¡¯s eyes, and her tone was unyielding.


    Yin Mo waved her hands. ¡°Liu Ying and I are good. However, we are just friends. It¡¯s not appropriate for me to help her.¡±


    When Yin Xun heard Yin Mo¡¯s rejection, she nodded and said, ¡°Oh, so the two of you aren¡¯t that close. Judging from your reaction to the father and son of the Liu family, I thought you¡¯ve fallen for Liu Cheng. You were so apologetic because you were afraid of affecting his family¡¯s image.¡±


    ¡°Sister!¡± Upon hearing Yin Xun say that she liked Liu Cheng, Yin Mo instantly panicked and quickly explained, ¡°My relationship with Si Fan is very good. I only love him in my heart. I won¡¯t like anyone else!¡±


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°Since you don¡¯t like him, why do you care so much about what they do? Your attitude just now made people think the wrong thing. Luckily, Si Fan isn¡¯t here. If he was here and saw you pleading for another man and wanting to help another man so much, even if he didn¡¯t say it out loud, he would definitely have a grudge in his heart.¡±


    To deal with a saint like Yin Mo, she could not use ordinary methods. He had to use the things that she cared about the most. Once it was related to her own interests, she would change her tune quickly.


    This tactic worked. After Yin Xun finished speaking, Yin Mo immediately cut off all ties with the Liu family.


    ¡°Sister, I really don¡¯t like Liu Cheng. Don¡¯t tell Si Fan about this. I¡¯m afraid he¡¯ll misunderstand!¡±


    It seemed like Yin Mo was really anxious. Her face was red, and she even stuttered a little when she spoke. She was afraid that Yin Xun would really tell Si Fan.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if I say it or not,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°Whether he would mind or not depends on your behavior in the future.¡±


    Yin Mo was indeed someone who only lived for love. Her mind was filled with only Si Fan. When she heard that Si Fan might mind, she immediately made her stand clear and expressed that she would not get involved in this matter.

 Chapter 22

    Saintess Be Gone


    His goal had already been achieved, and Yin Xun was too tired to talk to Yin Mo anymore. She turned around and walked back while calling out to Yin Cheng, ¡°Dad, let¡¯s go back and discuss this.¡±


    ¡°Ah, alright.¡± Yin Cheng patted Yin Mo¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Momo, go back. Your sister and I still have some matters to settle.¡±


    ¡°But ¡­¡±


    ¡°Please send her home.¡±


    Yin Mo still wanted to say something, but Yin Cheng waved his hand and called the security guard at the entrance over, asking him to inform the driver to send Yin Mo back. After he gave his instructions, he did not say anything else and turned around to walk back to the office with Yin Xun.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun and hesitated to speak.


    ¡°Dad, just ask whatever you want to ask. Is it because of what I said to Yin Mo just now?¡± Yin Xun saw through Yin Cheng¡¯s thoughts and took the initiative to speak.


    Seeing Yin Cheng nod his head, Yin Xun smiled and slowly said, ¡°Dad, the purpose of our company is to make money. The business world is like a battlefield. No matter how good their relationship was, she could not be vague when she had to make things clear. Our Yin family and the Liu family are working together. This is a big project, and all the employees in the company know how important it is.¡±


    Yin Xun took two quick steps and pressed the button for the Chairman¡¯s personal elevator. She then waited for Yin Cheng to enter before she entered. After the elevator door closed, Yin Xun continued, ¡°Normally, even if Yin Mo doesn¡¯t care about the company¡¯s matters, she is still a daughter of the Yin family. Her words and actions represent the us. With regards to the Liu family¡¯s matters, if she is soft-hearted and insists on interfering, then in the eyes of outsiders, she will look unreasonable and will reflect badly on the Yin family.¡±


    ¡°There are too many people watching the Yin family, and they definitely won¡¯t let go of anything that can suppress the Yin family. If they were to make some charges on us to this matter and blow it up, it would affect our reputation. That¡¯s why I need to prevent such a thing from happening.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s explanation, Yin Cheng subconsciously compared her to Yin Mo. They were both raised by him, so why were the personalities of these two sisters so different?


    The more he looked at his elder daughter, the more he liked her. He decided that he could discuss everything with her in the future.


    The two of them returned to the office and discussed how to continue working with the Liu family and how to maximize the benefits. On the other side, Yin Mo was forbidden from going to the office. She had nothing to do, so she could only go to look for Si Fan.


    When Yin Mo arrived, Si Fan was talking to his secretary. When he saw Yin Mo enter, he gave the secretary a look, and she left. When she passed by Yin Mo, not only did she not greet her, she even bumped into her.


    Everyone who knew Yin Mo knew her personality. She was pure, kind, and would never cause trouble. Even if she bumped into her, so what? Even if she hurt her, she would forgive her with a smile.


    As expected, even after the secretary left, Yin Mo did not have any reaction to this matter.


    ¡°Why are you here at this time? Are you on leave today?¡± Si Fan pulled Yin Mo¡¯s hand and walked to the sofa at the side to sit down. His tone was gentle, and he had a smile on his face, but that smile did not reach his eyes.


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were filled with Si Fan, and she could not see anything strange about him at all.


    ¡°My sister told me not to go to the office for the time being. I¡¯m free anyway, so I came to find you.¡± Yin Mo explained gently.


    Upon hearing this, Si Fan immediately furrowed his brows. He had a bad feeling.


    ¡°Not to go to the office? What¡¯s the meaning of this?¡±


    Yin Mo laughed and continued, ¡°It means that I don¡¯t have to work for now. However, dad said that he would give me more pocket money. They definitely have their own considerations. Anyway, sister will help dad with the company matters. I don¡¯t have to worry about anything. Plus, I¡¯m always clumsy, so I¡¯ll only cause trouble for them if I go. You won¡¯t dislike me, right?¡±


    As she spoke, Yin Mo hugged Si Fan¡¯s arm affectionately and leaned her head on his shoulder.


    Si Fan stretched out his hand to touch Yin Mo¡¯s face and promised, ¡°Of course not. I¡¯ll never despise you.¡±


    From an angle that Yin Mo could not see, Si Fan¡¯s face immediately darkened.


    Yin Xun had only returned for a few days, and she actually drove Yin Mo out of the company. She was blatantly trying to snatch the family assets from her.


    Originally, Si Fan thought that no matter how ambitious Yin Xun was, she would restrain himself in the beginning and not go too far.


    From the looks of it now, he had underestimated Yin Xun. Yin Mo, this stupid woman, actually is not reacting properly and was still blaming herself. She did not even know that her family assets was about to be snatched away by someone else.


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo in disgust. He did not expect Yin Mo to suddenly raise her head, and Si Fan quickly gave her a pampering smile.


    ¡°Momo, even though I know it¡¯s not appropriate for me to say this as an outsider, you¡¯re the person I love the most. Even if it¡¯s not appropriate, I still want to advise you.¡±

 Chapter 23

    The Driver¡¯s Misunderstanding


    ¡°Your sister stopped you from going to the company as soon as she came back. Does that mean that she will inherit the company in the future and you will no longer have a place? You¡¯re my girlfriend, I don¡¯t want to see you get bullied.¡±


    Si Fan moved her with emotion and reason, coaxing Yin Mo until she was dizzy. He could not let Yin Xun take the lead. For his revenge plan in the future, he had to help Yin Mo fight for it. He would need Yin Mo¡¯s help in many ways in the future.


    ¡°My friend opened a new club and the environment is quite good. You and your sister haven¡¯t been together for a long time, so your relationship must be a little rusty. Besides, my other friends also want to get to know your sister. Why don¡¯t you ask her out to have a meal with everyone? Make friends and improve your relationship. With more friends, there will be more paths in the future. What do you think?¡±


    Yin Mo listened to Si Fan¡¯s suggestion, and her heart was filled with gratitude. She really did not choose the wrong person. Si Fan¡¯s heart was filled with consideration for her, and she was so touched.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll try to ask my sister out.¡± Yin Mo agreed very quickly.


    ¡­


    Yin Xun had been busy the entire afternoon, and when she finally had the chance to catch her breath, it was already time to get off work.


    Because of Yin Mo and Si Fan, there were many small problems within the Yin family¡¯s company. Yin Xun wanted to dig them all out personally, and then restore the company to normal before dealing with Si Fan.


    As for the problem of the materials supplied, she was not worried. This was the Liu family¡¯s mistake. If they did not want to make a big deal out of this, they would definitely come to her to cooperate quietly.


    Yin Xun relaxed as she leaned back in her chair. She recalled that she had completed all her tasks for the day. She got up and was about to go home. Just as she reached the door of the office, a male employee ran past her in a hurry. He looked very anxious and did not even greet her.


    Seeing this male employee, Yin Xun suddenly thought of her neighbor.


    Yin Xun and her neighbor had the habit of jogging in the morning, and they would definitely meet each other often in the future. Thinking of the abruptness of that night, Yin Xun¡¯s face turned red for a moment. However, her face was not red because she was embarrassed, but because¡­


    Other things aside, the neighbor¡¯s figure was really good. He was thin and muscular, with wide shoulders and narrow hips, comparable to a popular male model. Looking at such a neighbor every day was quite pleasing to the eye. In order to avoid any awkwardness in the future, Yin Xun decided that it was better to express her apology to the neighbor.


    Those who could live in that villa area were all rich people, so ordinary gifts would definitely not catch their eye. What should she choose to show her sincerity and appreciate the value?


    Yin Xun thought to herself as she walked out. When she reached the entrance of the company, the driver was already waiting for her downstairs.


    After she got into the car, Yin Xun kept staring at the driver. The driver looked to be in his thirties. Although he was not that handsome, at least he had a decent appearance. He must have been very popular with girls when he was young.


    Yin Xun thought that she could ask the driver what gift would be suitable from a man¡¯s point of view.


    The driver did not know what Yin Xun was thinking, and he felt his hair stand on end from her stare. Then, he heard Yin Xun ask him, ¡°What do you like? If a female friend gives you a gift, what would you like to receive the most?¡±


    ¡°Me? It must be a belt or some other electronic device,¡± the driver replied.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up at the mention of electronic products. That¡¯s right, do not all men like these kinds of things? However, on second thought, the development of this world was relatively backward. Electronic products were not widely spread, and their functions were not good. It was boring.


    ¡°If electronic products aren¡¯t good, what about other things?¡±


    Yin Xun kept asking the driver what he liked. The driver was so nervous that he was gripping onto the steering wheel, and his neck was so stiff that it was almost shaking.


    Why would the Young Miss suddenly ask him about these things? Was she going to give him a gift? Yin Xun usually sat in the back seat, but this time, she sat in the front passenger seat. Could he have taken a fancy to him?


    The drivers had their own circle. Other than driving for the rich bosses, they loved to gather together and gossip. For example, which gigolo had been kept by a rich woman, which mistress had been discovered by the wife of the owner, and so on.


    Just the day before yesterday, a young driver in their circle was fancied by his rich boss because he was too handsome. He was forced to be her toy boy. The rich woman said that if he did not agree, he would never be able to find a job again. The rich woman had a strong background, and the young driver had his parents to support, so he could only reluctantly agree.

 Chapter 24

    A Boyfriend Appeared


    Could it be that this kind of thing was going to happen to him? The driver quickly said, ¡°M-Miss, I have a wife and a five-year-old daughter¡­¡± As he said that, he took out a locket around his neck. The locket was a small picture frame. It was very exquisite. On it was a little girl with two ponytails and a sweet smile.


    Yin Xun did not pay much attention to the driver¡¯s words. She thought that the driver was showing off his daughter. She looked at the photo and praised, ¡°Your daughter is very cute.¡±


    ¡°Is there anything else?¡± she said. ¡°Well, how should I put it? It should be able to express my friendliness without being too presumptuous. After all, our first impression might not have been too good.¡±


    The reason why Yin Xun said so much to the driver was because this driver had appeared in the novel a few times. He had a good character and was very loyal to the Yin family. When the Yin family was at their lowest, he had even tried his best to help them. Although his words were insignificant and did not have much effect, Yin Xun had a good impression of him.


    When the driver heard that Yin Xun was asking about another man, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief and started to recommend ideas to her enthusiastically.


    The two of them discussed during the entire journey. In the end, Yin Xun decided on what to buy. After she bought it, the driver sent her back to the villa and left. What Yin Xun did not notice was that the driver had a smile on his face as he left.


    It turned out that their Miss already had a man she liked. She was asking in detail about how to give him a gift. It seemed like she was still in the stage of pursuing him.


    ¡°Our Young Miss is beautiful, has a high education, and is also capable. What kind of man can she not get? President Yin would definitely be very happy once he finds out.¡± The driver muttered to himself as he drove off from the villa area.


    He was originally Yin Cheng¡¯s driver and was in charge of picking him up for business. The reason why he was driving Yin Xun was because there was a problem with Yin Xun¡¯s car and he had not bought a new one yet, so Yin Cheng assigned his driver to Yin Xun.


    The first thing Yin Xun did when she got home was to go to the balcony. She wanted to see if her neighbor was home.


    In order to avoid awkwardness, she remembered to hide behind the curtains this time. This way, even if the neighbors looked in her direction, they would not notice her.


    Noticing that she was acting like a Peeping Tom, Yin Xun was amused by herself. This behavior was not good, it was really not good. This was the last time, and she would never do this again.


    After watching for a while, there was no movement from the opposite side, so Yin Xun decided to go wash up first and go over later.


    After taking a comfortable bath, Yin Xun looked at the information about SI Corporation for a while. The sky gradually darkened. When she saw that the neighbor¡¯s light was on, she immediately put on her clothes, took her gift, and went over to apologize.


    She slowly walked to the door next door. Yin Xun rang the doorbell. A few seconds later, the door opened, and a middle-aged man in uniform walked out. He looked like the butler of the house.


    ¡°May I know who you are and what¡¯s the matter?¡± The butler asked.


    ¡°Hello, I¡¯m a new resident who just moved in. I live next door to you. Please help me pass this to your master. It¡¯s a small gift from me. I¡¯ll just say that I offended you that night.¡± Yin Xun passed the gift box in her hands to the butler and was about to leave.


    ¡°Wait, miss, may I know your name?¡± the butler called out to her.


    ¡°Who is it?¡±


    Before the butler could finish his question, a woman¡¯s voice came from inside. Hearing the question, the butler frowned.


    The one who spoke was Gu Miao. She only knew how to pester his Young Master every day. Everyone could see her motive, and that was to become the Young Madam.


    The butler had watched the young master grow up. He felt that Gu Miao was not a good match for the young master, be it in terms of appearance or talent. Therefore, he was particularly displeased with her.


    However, he was only a servant. No matter how much he disliked it, he had to show respect on the surface.


    ¡°Miss Gu, it¡¯s a friend of Young Master¡¯s,¡± the butler replied.


    ¡°Friend?¡± Gu Miao walked towards the door and saw Yin Xun standing outside.


    ¡°Yao, which family is this young lady from? You¡¯ve made a new friend? Why don¡¯t you introduce her to me?¡± Gu Miao looked at Yin Xun. Although she spoke politely, her expression was full of vigilance.


    Yin Xun looked at her and understood. It seemed that she was the mistress of this house. Then she had to leave as soon as possible. She could not let her misunderstand.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡­¡±


    ¡°Let me introduce you. This is my girlfriend.¡± Fang Yao walked out of the house, not caring about Yin Xun¡¯s reaction. He grabbed her wrist and led her into the villa.

 Chapter 25

    Helping The Neighbor


    Yin Xun was speechless.


    What¡¯s going on? I was just here to apologize. Why am I suddenly being called girlfriend?


    Before Yin Xun could react, Gu Miao¡¯s expression turned ugly. She forced out a smile and said, ¡°Ah Yao, I know you¡¯re still at loggerheads with Uncle and Auntie. It¡¯s normal for a family to have some friction. It¡¯ll be fine in a few days. You don¡¯t have to find a woman to be your girlfriend, right? You can tell me if there¡¯s anything you need, I can help you¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m serious.¡± Fang Yao replied calmly.


    ¡°When did you and Ah Yao meet?¡± Gu Miao turned around and asked Yin Xun directly. She did not believe that Fang Yao, who usually did not get close to women, would suddenly have a girlfriend.


    Father and Mother Fang had their eyes on her. She had worked so hard for so long, he must not be snatched away by this woman.


    Yin Xun listened to the conversation between the two in front of him and finally understood. It seemed that this woman liked her neighbor, and the neighbor pretended she was his girlfriend to stop her from pursuing him, or for some other reason.


    It seemed that this girl did not believe her relationship with her neighbor, so she turned around to ask her.


    It was just a favor, a small matter. Yin Xun¡¯s first impression of this neighbor of hers was not bad because the neighbor immediately let go of her after bringing her in. He had not done anything overboard. Just now, he grabbed her wrist but did not have any intention of offending her.


    Yin Xun put her hands behind his back and touched Fang Yao quietly. She gave him a look, indicating that she would cooperate with him. Fang Yao immediately understood what Yin Xun meant.


    ¡°We met the day before yesterday. Fate is such a wonderful thing. Some people are like this. Even if it¡¯s the first time meeting, we immediately were attracted to each other like opposing magnetic fields and got together,¡± Yin Xun said half-truthfully.


    They had indeed just met, and fate was indeed wondrous. She was actually the one who had been caught peeking at his house. However, being together meant a lot more. They were neighbors now, which was another form of being together.


    After she finished speaking, she even turned around and asked Fang Yao, ¡°Don¡¯t you think so? My dear boyfriend?¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. He did not expect Yin Xun to be so good at acting, and he looked at her with a smile.


    He simply felt that she was pretty funny, but in Gu Miao¡¯s eyes, it was not the same. She thought that the two of them were looking at each other affectionately, and a flame of jealousy rose in her heart. However, she did not dare to show it, so she could only force a smile.


    Yin Xun looked at Gu Miao and sighed in her heart. There were plenty of fish in the sea, so there was no need to hang onto a single line. He had already made it clear that he did not like her, so if she continued to pester him, she would only be the one who would get hurt.


    After saying these few words cooperatively, Yin Xun did not say anything else. She had no enmity with Gu Miao and was merely doing her neighbor a favor. There was no need to make things difficult for her. Moreover, she did not have such intentions.


    ¡°My girlfriend¡¯s here. Miss Gu, can you go back now? If my girlfriend misunderstands, I¡¯ll be in trouble.¡± Fang Yao took the box from the butler and asked Yin Xun, ¡°Can I open it and take a look?¡±


    ¡°Of course you can. This is for you.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Fang Yao untied the ribbon and opened the box. When he saw what was inside, his expression was strange for a moment, but he immediately returned to normal.


    When he took out the gift, Gu Zheng and the butler were very curious and craned their necks to look over. When they saw the gift in Fang Yao¡¯s hand, the butler could not help but sigh, ¡°It¡¯s a lamp, and it¡¯s made of crystal.¡±


    Gu Zheng was speechless.


    Why did she have the feeling that the butler was declaring her the loser or something?


    ¡°Alright, now that you¡¯ve seen my girlfriend, it¡¯s time for us to spend some alone time together. It¡¯s time for you to leave. Butler, send Miss Gu back.¡±


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s words, Gu Zheng could no longer control her expression. Her face turned pale, and even the corners of her lips trembled.


    She paused for a moment and forced a smile, trying to fight for a chance for herself. ¡°Yao, we¡¯ve been friends for so many years. You can¡¯t abandon your old friend just because you have a girlfriend. Besides, there¡¯s nothing between us. Your girlfriend won¡¯t mind, right? she doesn¡¯t look like a petty person.¡±


    ¡°Yao and I grew up together,¡± she said, looking at Yin Xun. ¡°You wouldn¡¯t mind our relationship, would you?¡±


    Yin Xun almost laughed out loud when she saw this standard behavior.


    Having lived for so long, she never thought that she would encounter this kind of female supporting character in novels. For some reason, she was actually a little excited.

 Chapter 26

    Even


    It was a pity that Yin Xun did not have any time to speak, as Fang Yao had already answered for her.


    ¡°Even if she doesn¡¯t mind, I will. Alright, it¡¯s time for Miss Gu to leave.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s expression was already a little impatient. Seeing that Gu Miao was still dawdling there and refusing to leave, he handed the crystal lamp in his hand to the butler and instructed, ¡°Go hang this lamp in my bedroom.¡±


    Seeing that Fang Yao was clearly chasing her away, Gu Miao could only bid him farewell. Before she left the villa, she turned around and glared at Yin Xun before leaving.


    Yin Xun noticed Gu Miao¡¯s reaction and knew that she now had a grudge against her. However, she was fine with it. She was not really in a relationship with this neighbor, and she will not have any interactions with this Miss Gu. She would just treat this incident as a minor event for the night.


    The butler heaved a sigh of relief after sending Gu Miao off impatiently. When Yin Xun saw the butler¡¯s reaction, she could not help but feel a little curious. Just how annoying was this Miss Gu that even the butler¡¯s attitude towards her was so impatient?


    ¡°Young Master, please continue your conversation with your girlfriend. Call me if you need anything. I¡¯ll be going first.¡± The butler looked at Fang Yao and revealed a gossipy smile. Then, he gave her a look, signaling her to do her best, and left.


    It seemed that their Young Master had matured. Although he knew that he was just acting for Gu Miao, what if it actually worked? With his many years of experience in judging people, he knew that the Young Master¡¯s female neighbor was a good person. She gave him a very comfortable feeling.


    ¡°Alright, regarding what happened that night, I¡¯ve given you a gift to express my apology and also pretended to be your girlfriend to help you. We¡¯re even now. I still have things to do tonight, see you later.¡±


    At the same time the butler left, Yin Xun¡¯s phone rang. She took it out to take a look, and it was Yin Cheng. She bade him farewell in a hurry and did not have time to see the man¡¯s reaction before she left.


    Yin Xun only picked up the phone after she walked out of the villa.


    ¡°Ah Xun, Liu Yi wants to talk to me about the construction materials. Judging from your performance these days, I think you¡¯re fully capable of handling these problems. It¡¯ll also give you some training, so how about I let you handle this?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    ¡°Of course you can.¡± Yin Xun agreed.


    ¡°However¡­¡± Yin Cheng continued, ¡°Because of this, our cooperation with Si Fan was terminated. Yin Mo was very unhappy and kept coming to disturb me, asking me to give him a good project again. I¡¯ll leave this matter to you, and you¡¯ll be fully in charge of it.¡±


    With Yin Mo¡¯s personality, she was actually able to make Yin Cheng uncomfortable. It was obvious that Si Fan had ordered her to do so.


    Si Fan knew that he could not get any benefits from the Yin family by himself, so he could only rely on Yin Mo to help him. Thinking about the ending of Yin Mo and the Yin family in the book, Yin Xun shook her head. Si Fan was really shameless to the extreme.


    After Yin Xun hung up the call, she had already returned to her villa. She decided not to think about anything tonight and had a good rest to prepare herself for tomorrow.


    The next day, Yin Xun brought Mary and the two of them rushed to Bright Water Little Pavilion at the agreed time.


    It was Yin Xun¡¯s first time here. She looked at the antique layout and was a little surprised. She did not expect Liu Yi to be so tasteful.


    Under the staff¡¯s guidance, Yin Xun arrived at the second floor. The second floor was very similar to the first floor. It still had an ancient setting. The only difference was that the first floor was open to the public, while the second floor was divided into many cubicles by screens.


    Liu Yi and his son had already arrived. There was a stack of documents in front of them. Yin Xun glanced at them and understood. It seemed that they had already discussed a solution.


    ¡°Miss Yin, I have already roughly discussed it with your father. Our two families have worked together for so long, and if we suddenly change the supplier halfway, it would not be good for either family. So we decided to continue working together. This time, the mistake was indeed on us. These are the compensation terms we¡¯ve set, what do you think?¡± Liu Yi passed the papers to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun took the document, and before she could flip through it, the conditions on the first page made her frown.


    The so-called compensation from Liu¡¯s company was to replace the problematic materials for free. In addition, the construction materials used in this cooperation, Yin Corporation¡¯s purchase price will be reduced by ten percent.


    In other words, the Liu family took advantage of the fact that the Yin family did not want to change their supplier at the last minute, so they only lowered the price a little and did not offer any other compensation.

 Chapter 27

    Showing Off Your Edge


    Yin Xun did not even turn the page and directly handed the papers back to Liu Yi. She said lightly, ¡°Chief Liu, I¡¯m sure you understand my father¡¯s intentions. The reason why we¡¯re still willing to continue working with you is that our two companies have been working together for many years and we trust each other. The second reason is that this project is too big, and there are many people keeping an eye on it. I don¡¯t need to explain the reason, you should know.¡±


    ¡°If we suddenly change the supplier in the middle, it¡¯ll be obvious that there¡¯s a problem with the quality. Of course, you don¡¯t have to think about resolving this matter by clarifying. After all, the quality inspection report won¡¯t lie. Once this matter is exposed, the impact on your Liu family will definitely be greater than on our Yin family.¡±


    ¡°Think about it, if I didn¡¯t realize it at that time and continued to use inferior materials, if something happened in the future, then the Liu family¡¯s loss would not be as simple as this construction material. In the face of such a big mistake, if you¡¯re only going to lower the cost by such a small amount, I¡¯m afraid we can¡¯t accept it.¡±


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s reply, Liu Cheng was dissatisfied and said, ¡°Sigh, we¡¯ve already decided to exchange the problematic building materials for free, and at the same time, we¡¯ll give you 90% of the market price for the rest of the building materials used in the project. Not only will you not lose anything, but you¡¯ll also save a lot of money. What are you dissatisfied with?¡±


    In the face of Liu Cheng¡¯s question, Yin Xun smiled and asked, ¡°Then, according to the law, if a supplier deliberately provides inferior materials, what will happen if they are exposed?¡±


    Although Liu Cheng did not know much, Liu Yi was a sly old fox who had been in the business circle for many years. When he heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, he instantly understood that Yin Xun had come fully prepared.


    Indeed, in terms of emotion, reason, and law, they were all the unreasonable party. Even if the Yin family wanted more compensation, it was understandable. With more compensation, they would only earn less money. If they went through legal means, it would be a big deal.


    Looking at the calm Yin Xun sitting across from him, Liu Yi could not help but compare her to his own child. Not to mention Liu Ying, who only caused him trouble, Liu Ying was a girl, after all, and he did not have high hopes for her at all. Even his own son, Liu Cheng, paled in comparison to Yin Xun.


    He did not know what good things Yin Cheng had done in his past life to have such an outstanding daughter.


    ¡°Since you are not satisfied with this proposal, then Miss Yin, tell me. What kind of compensation do you want?¡± Liu Yi glared at Liu Cheng, who still wanted to say something.


    Yin Xun¡¯s fingers lightly tapped on the table twice before she slowly said, ¡°The losses will be borne by you, such as the replacement of materials and the cost of the second construction. Do you have any objections?¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Liu Yi shook his head and said, ¡°It¡¯s our responsibility to bear this.¡±


    ¡°Very good,¡± she said. Yin Xun continued, ¡°We¡¯re long-term partners. Such a major incident has greatly affected the trust between our two families. What if something like this happens again in the future?¡± So, my suggestion is to pay the remaining materials at 50% of the market price. How about it?¡±


    ¡°50%! You¡¯re asking for too much, why don¡¯t you just rob someone!¡± Upon hearing Yin Xun¡¯s request, Liu Cheng immediately became anxious and shouted.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t do this on purpose, did you? Who knows if you¡¯ve done something to the construction materials¡­¡±


    ¡°Shut up!¡±


    Seeing that Liu Cheng was about to blurt out something, Liu Yi quickly stopped him. He was already very glad that he did not cause any trouble this time. Yin Xun was right. Right now, it was purely to compensate the Yin family. If they had not realized that something had happened, in the end, if someone had died, the situation would be bigger than this.


    Now, this matter could be big or small, and it all depended on what the Yin family said. They were the ones who were in the wrong first, so they could not continue to provoke the Yin family.


    Even so, as a businessman, Liu Yi still had to find a way to minimize his losses. Thus, he continued to negotiate with Yin Xun. ¡°50% is too much. How about this? We¡¯ll lower it by 20% and give you 80% of the market share. If we have any good materials in the future, we¡¯ll definitely give you priority. What do you think?¡±


    Liu Yi spoke with sincerity, but Yin Xun was sneering in her heart.


    As expected of an old fox. This suggestion sounded very good at first glance. In the future, the Yin family would also benefit from working with them. However, there was a prerequisite for this benefit, and that was to continue working with the Yin family. This seemed to be compensation, but at the same time, it paved the way for future cooperation. It was simply killing two birds with one stone.


    ¡°President Liu, we can talk about future cooperation in the future. It¡¯s too early to talk about the future now. Who knows what will happen in the future, right?¡± Yin Xun did not accept this suggestion.

 Chapter 28

    Yin Mo¡¯s Invitation


    Yin Xun and Liu Yi talked for an hour. In the beginning, Liu Cheng could still interrupt occasionally, but towards the end, Liu Cheng did not know what to say because he felt that what Yin Xun and Liu Yi said made sense. He did not know who to support.


    Faced with Yin Xun¡¯s unyielding attitude, Liu Yi finally gave in. He did not expect Yin Xun to be so strong. She had just graduated and entered the workforce, but she actually had such grit.


    The final result of the negotiation was that Liu Yi went back to make a new plan and promised to give the new proposal as soon as possible because neither side could afford to delay the construction.


    President Yin, you are really too amazing. You can actually negotiate so smoothly with someone as experienced as President Liu. I am starting to admire you. After Liu Yi and the others left, Mary looked at Yin Xun with respect.


    Yin Xun only smiled and did not say much.


    She had always remembered the plot of the novel, so she did not really ¡°understand¡± Mary at the moment. After all, she never existed in the original text, and she still had to wait and see.


    Yin Xun reported the results to Yin Cheng and decided to go to the construction site to take a look.


    In order to prevent any accidents, it was better for her to keep an eye on things personally. Looking at the time, it was almost noon. She decided to find a place to rest first and go over in the afternoon when lunchtime ended. After all, workers needed to rest.


    When she was in the other world, she was also a hard worker. She hated those who exploited workers. Now that she was a leader, she was determined not to be such a person!


    Just as he was about to ask Mary to find a place to eat, Yin Mo called.


    ¡°Sister, Si Fan wants to invite you over to apologize to you about the construction materials. Do you have time to come over now?¡± Yin Mo¡¯s gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.


    This was a voice that most men would not be able to refuse, but Yin Xun felt a headache after hearing it. What was Yin Mo up to again?


    ¡°I don¡¯t have time, I need to work.¡± Yin Xun did not want to talk to her sister anymore, so she rejected her directly.


    ¡°Then¡­¡± Yin Mo said.


    She was a little afraid of her sister. After being rejected, she did not know what to say.


    Si Fan, who was at the side, kept giving her looks, telling her to call Yin Xun over. Yin Mo had no choice but to continue talking to Yin Xun, ¡°Sister, you can leave your work to others. You don¡¯t have to tire yourself out. Dad is there to look after things in the company anyway.¡±


    ¡°Ha, you¡¯re really shameless. You¡¯re already so big, but you¡¯re still relying on your father to raise you.¡± Yin Xun mocked her without holding back.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, sister. It¡¯s all because I¡¯m too stupid and can¡¯t help you share your worries. That¡¯s why you¡¯re angry with me, right? Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely learn from you when I get back and try to help dad.¡±


    As Yin Xun had expected, Yin Mo started to reflect on herself again, and her anger started to pour out.


    ¡°Sister, my friend is having a birthday party tonight. Other than us, there will be many successful people from the upper echelons. Si Fan said that you¡¯ll definitely gain something if you come. This is the fastest way to broaden your connections.¡±


    Yin Mo said to Yin Xun according to what Si Fan had taught her. As expected, Yin Xun¡¯s heart was moved by this reason.


    Although the Yin family was very strong, they were not the strongest. There were many people above the Yin family. If she wanted to understand them, this was a very fast way.


    ¡°But I don¡¯t even know your friend. What gift do I need to prepare?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t need to prepare a gift. Just leave this to me. You just need to come.¡± Seeing that Yin Xun had agreed, Yin Mo sounded very happy, and her tone was much more relaxed.


    The banquet would only start at night, so Yin Xun was not in a hurry to leave. After all, she did not have to prepare anything. After waiting for a while,lunchtime was almost over. Yin Xun then went to the construction site.


    Due to the quality of the materials, half of the work at the construction site had been stopped.


    Yin Xun did not inform anyone of her arrival. She quietly went to the office next to the warehouse. A man in his forties was dozing off on a chair. Other than him, there was no one else in the other seats. She did not know if he was supervising or slacking off.


    ¡°Who¡¯s the leader in charge of materials?¡± Yin Xun did not enter the office, but stood at the door and asked.


    ¡°Who is it? Why are you shouting!¡± The man was woken up by the noise and jumped in shock. He got up impatiently and looked towards the door, and he saw Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun had only been to the construction site once. At that time, she had only been at the front to meet the main person in charge, so many people here did not know her identity.


    The most important thing was that on the day Yin Xun came, this man happened to be on leave and had no idea that the person in charge had changed.

 Chapter 29

    I Do Not Know Her


    The man only treated her as an ordinary employee, so he replied in an unpleasant tone, ¡°Yes, I am. What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re the person in charge of materials?¡± Yin Xun confirmed it again.


    ¡°What, could it be that you¡¯re a big leader who came down for an inspection? Do you want me to show you my work pass? Really, I¡¯ve already told you I¡¯m the one, why are you still asking?¡± The man replied in a bad mood. He had too much fun outside last night and was very sleepy at the moment. He needed to rest.


    Seeing the man like this, Yin Xun nodded and said indifferently, ¡°Okay, let me ask you. Since you¡¯re in charge, did you find any problems with the materials?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re here for an inspection?¡± The man¡¯s expression turned serious as he sensed that something was wrong.


    ¡°President Yin, you came over personally again. Is there something wrong?¡±


    At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind. The man and Yin Xun looked over at the same time. It was a quality inspector, walking over with a stack of documents.


    ¡°President Yin?¡± When the man saw the quality inspector call Yin Xun ¡®President Yin¡¯, he was instantly stunned.


    He had seen Yin Cheng before, and President Yin was supposed to be a man. Why did a female President Yin appear?


    When the quality inspector saw that the man did not know Yin Xun¡¯s identity, he showed an especially exaggerated expression of surprise and asked in disbelief, ¡°Why? you don¡¯t even know President Yin? This is the Young Miss of the Yin family, and she is in charge of this project.¡±


    The moment he heard Yin Xun¡¯s identity, the man was immediately unable to remain calm. His attitude had a 180-degree turn. He nodded his head and bowed towards Yin Xun as he said, ¡°President Yin, I am really sorry. I have been on leave for the past few days. I have some matters to attend to at home, so I had not known you. If you have anything that you want to ask, feel free to ask me.¡±


    Yin Xun did not have much of a reaction to the man¡¯s sudden change in attitude. Her expression was still calm, and no one could tell what she was thinking at the moment. ¡°Since you¡¯re in charge, then let me ask you, why didn¡¯t you inspect anything when you received the materials?¡±


    The man seemed to have been prepared for this. He did not panic at all in the face of Yin Xun¡¯s questioning. He smiled and replied, ¡°President Si is in charge of the materials this time. Second Miss has already informed us in advance and told us not to bother, so¡­¡±


    Yin Mo had indeed told them that before, and they saw that Yin Cheng was very satisfied with this son-in-law, so no one paid much attention to him.


    He definitely would not say that he was only doing this because he had received bribes. Anyway, he would push all the blame onto Yin Mo, and Yin Mo would take all the blame for them.


    Yin Mo was pure and kind. No matter what mistakes her employees made, she would never punish them. She would only give them a few reminders. However, he did not know that Yin Xun was not an ordinary person. She was a transmigrator who had read part of the plot. Unfortunately, this incident happened before the novel began. She had read it all and knew all the people involved.


    After listening to the man¡¯s explanation, Yin Xun did not question him anymore. The man thought that Yin Xun believed him, and he felt more relaxed.


    Yin Xun indicated that she understood and then called the quality inspector away.


    In the novel, the quality inspector was always at odds with the man in charge of materials. It was the quality inspector¡¯s job to ensure quality, but the material¡¯s man was greedy for money and always colluded with others to hinder the quality inspector.


    Fortunately, nothing bad had happened. In order to keep his job, the quality inspector did not dare to go against those people and could only go along with what they said. In fact, he had long been tired of it.


    ¡°What do you think of someone accepting inferior products?¡±


    The two of them walked to an empty space, and Yin Xun suddenly asked the quality inspector.


    Faced with such a sudden question, the quality inspector was stunned for a moment before he reacted to Yin Xun¡¯s meaning. As a quality inspector, his task was to ensure that the products were up to standard and he was responsible for the consumers. He definitely could not allow any quality problems.


    ¡°Of course it¡¯s not okay,¡± he replied honestly. ¡°This kind of behavior is harmful to consumers. No matter how much money you pay, you can¡¯t accept it.¡±


    Yin Xun continued to ask, ¡°What if you have the chance to report such a person?¡± Of course, I¡¯m only saying that under the condition of ensuring safety.¡±


    ¡°Of course I¡¯ll report him,¡± the quality inspector said. ¡°This kind of thing is against my professional ethics.¡±


    Upon hearing his words, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I need your help¡­¡±

 Chapter 30

    A Greasy Man


    After settling the work at the construction site, Yin Xun rushed back home. As soon as she reached home, Mary brought her the invitation to the banquet that night.


    Looking at the invitation card with gold lining on it, Yin Xun kept it away. It looked like Yin Mo was not lying. This banquet was indeed very formal, and she was relieved.


    Yin Xun simply tidied herself up, changed into a red gown, and then rushed to the banquet venue.


    At the entrance of the club, she saw Yin Mo, who was dressed to the nines, and Si Fan, who was beside Yin Mo. The two of them were waiting for her.


    The banquet had already started, and Yin Xun followed Yin Mo in. When she saw the scene in front of her, she raised his eyebrows slightly. It was so spectacular.


    This friend of Yin Mo¡¯s was really influential. It was just a birthday party, and there were actually so many important people here. After Yin Xun greeted a few people she knew, she took a red wine glass and sat down at the side, quietly observing her surroundings.


    Although she had the intention to befriend these capable people, she did not know them after all, and she did not understand their preferences. If she was too eager, it would easily backfire.


    Yin Xun was a natural-born businesswoman. There was no businessman who did not scheme. Under the premise of not hurting others, she would try her best to fight for the greatest benefit for herself.


    ¡°She¡¯s that tigress sister of yours?¡±


    Yin Xun was observing when a haughty woman walked over.


    She stood in front of Yin Xun and looked at her with disdain. ¡°I thought there was something special about this woman who sent someone to prison as soon as she returned to the country, but she¡¯s just so-so.¡±


    ¡°Who is this?¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo in confusion. She was sure that she did not know this woman. This was the first time the two of them had met, so why was she so hostile towards her?


    ¡°Sister, she is my best friend, Zhang Xin,¡± Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun apologetically.


    ¡°Why, are you so curious about who I am? Do you want to call the police and arrest me? But it¡¯s a pity that you don¡¯t have the ability to deal with me. You¡¯re not qualified to deal with the power of my family.¡±


    Zhang Xin. This name sounded very familiar. Yin Xun recalled the contents of the novel, and this name seemed to have appeared before.


    Because she was thinking about something, Yin Xun did not move for a while. She just sat there quietly and was a little lost in thought. Zhang Xin thought that she was afraid of her and said proudly, ¡°At least you have some knowledge and know to be afraid of me. I¡¯m not as weak as Liu Ying. If you dare to provoke me, I¡¯ll get my dad to ¡®take good care¡¯ of you in business.¡±


    Yin Xun thought for a while, and a light flashed in her mind. She suddenly remembered. ¡®Wasn¡¯t this name one of the villains in the novel?¡¯ In the novel, Yin Mo had been ruthlessly defeated by this person.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin Mo, so this is your older sister. As expected, she is as beautiful as you.¡±


    Just as Yin Xun was about to speak, a man walked over and interrupted her. Si Fan was beside him.


    ¡°I say, Xing Cheng, you¡¯re not a picky eater anymore. Any woman suits your taste, even this one.¡± Zhang Xin crossed her arms in front of her chest and sneered.


    ¡°Zhang Xin, mind your words. Don¡¯t affect my image in Miss Yin Xun¡¯s heart. She is my distinguished guest.¡± Xing Cheng looked at Yin Xun¡¯s peach blossom eyes and extended his hand to her in a gentlemanly manner. ¡°I wonder if the young lady can give me the honor of a dance.¡±


    After saying that, he revealed a smile that he thought was very handsome.


    Yin Xun looked at him and could not help but feel disgusted. She tried her best to hold back the cold shiver that she felt because of the slime. He was too greasy. She had never seen such a greasy person.


    Xing Cheng thought that Yin Xun was like the other girls and was mesmerized by his gentlemanly and handsome looks. He became even more confident.


    Just as he was waiting for Yin Xun to extend her hand to him, Zhang Xin, who was at the side, sneered again, ¡°Xing Cheng, you have to do your homework before you flirt with her. Do you know if she can dance? I don¡¯t think a woman who can send someone to prison can do such an elegant thing as dancing.¡±


    Xing Cheng shook his head indifferently and said gently, ¡°It¡¯s fine, Miss Yin. Even if you don¡¯t know how to dance, it¡¯s fine. I can lead the dance. I will teach you.¡±


    ¡°You want to teach her, but she might not want to learn. Maybe she has her eyes on top of her head and doesn¡¯t even think highly of us.¡± Zhang Xin continued to mock.


    ¡°How could that be? Miss Yin is not such a person.¡± Xing Cheng maintained his smile as he looked at Yin Xun.


    After hearing what he said, a smile appeared on Yin Xun¡¯s face. She slowly said, ¡°What a coincidence, I¡¯m such a person.¡±

 Chapter 31

    Your Family Is Going Bankrupt


    The smile on Xing Cheng¡¯s face froze. He did not know how to continue after hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    ¡°Hehe, Xing Cheng, what did I say? You have the intention to protect her, but she doesn¡¯t appreciate it. Now you¡¯ve seen what kind of person she is. She doesn¡¯t like you at all.¡± Zhang Xin gloated at the side.


    Xing Cheng was a well-known playboy, and it was usually other women who would rush up to him and beg him to look at them. Although the Yin family was also a big family, they were still far apart from the Xing family. Now that Yin Xun did not give Xing Cheng any face, there was going to be a good show.


    ¡°Oh, from the way you speak, it seems like you¡¯ve already seen through me. You know what kind of person I am?¡± Yin Xun looked at Zhang Xin with a smile that was not a smile and continued, ¡°Then, did you know that I¡¯ve already investigated your entire family background?¡±


    ¡°Investigate my family? Why are you investigating my house?¡± When Zhang Xin heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, a bad feeling rose in her heart. However, she could not show it, so she pretended to be calm and said with disdain, ¡°Why? My family didn¡¯t break the law. Do you want to take me to the police station?¡±


    ¡°The police can¡¯t be bothered with your family¡¯s mess. Forget it, you¡¯re going to become a down-and-out heiress soon anyway, so I don¡¯t have to stoop to your level. It won¡¯t be long before you¡¯ll no longer have the qualifications to step into this place. After all, the identity you¡¯re so proud of will be gone.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her wine glass and elegantly took a sip of red wine. She continued to speak unhurriedly, ¡°The Zhang group has lost nearly half of its assets. Now, it has a cash flow problem and can¡¯t get help. It¡¯s on the verge of bankruptcy. Am I right, Miss Zhang Xin?¡±


    The moment she said this, everyone immediately looked at Zhang Xin.


    ¡°Y-You¡¯re talking nonsense!¡± Zhang Xin¡¯s face turned pale.


    ¡°You know very well whether I¡¯m talking nonsense or not. If you¡¯re so rich, why has your spending level plummeted recently? Where are your bodyguards and luxury cars?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s every question was on point.


    Zhang Xin¡¯s arrogance was instantly extinguished. She looked at Yin Xun and wanted to explain, but she did not know what excuse to find.


    ¡°Hey, Zhang Xin, is your family really going bankrupt? Do you need our help?¡±


    ¡°How are you going to help? With your pocket money? Hahaha, our Zhang Xin won¡¯t be interested in it.¡±


    ¡°I do have an idea that can guarantee the solution to your financial problem. You can find a big shot and marry him. It¡¯ll be a business marriage. Won¡¯t this problem be solved then?¡±


    Her friends were comforting her on the surface, but they were actually gloating.


    Yin Xun looked around coldly and took in everyone¡¯s reactions. These rich second generation kids who only knew how to eat, drink, and play usually did not have any real feelings.


    Looking at her friends who she had been on good terms with in the past gloating over her misfortune, Zhang Xin became anxious. She used to be one of these people. Without fail, the bankrupt rich second generation kids would be collectively rejected by them and eventually kicked out of the circle. If she did not say anything now, she would definitely be driven away.


    Although she did not know how Yin Xun found out, the most important thing was for Zhang Xin to explain.


    ¡°Yin Xun, do you know that it¡¯s illegal to spread rumors? Do you think I won¡¯t call the police?¡± Zhang Xin really could not think of what to say, so she could only use the police to threaten her.


    Hearing that Zhang Xin was going to call the police, Yin Xun burst out laughing. ¡°Why? Don¡¯t you hate people who call the police for no reason?¡± she asked unhurriedly. ¡°That¡¯s great. I, Yin Xun, will say it here today. Your Zhang Corporation will go bankrupt in less than half a month. The only way to remedy this was to quickly find investors to repair your broken capital chain. If I¡¯m wrong, you can call the police and arrest me.¡±


    When everyone saw how confident Yin Xun was and how she wanted Zhang Xin to call the police, they were all convinced that the Zhang Corporation was going bankrupt.


    ¡°The shortage of funds should be classified as a company secret. You¡¯re not an internal staff member of her company, so how did you get this information?¡± A person who seemed to have a good relationship with Zhang Xin asked.


    Yin Xun revealed a smile and looked towards Yin Mo and Si Fan.


    Yin Mo¡¯s face was already red from the tension from Yin Xun and Zhang Xin¡¯s argument, and when she saw Yin Xun looking at her, she instantly lowered her head instinctively.


    Everyone followed Yin Xun¡¯s gaze and looked over. They saw Yin Mo, who was blushing and lowering her head, and they were instantly deep in thought.


    They all knew Yin Mo¡¯s character. Could it be that Si Fan used Yin Mo to leak the news? One had to know that when Si Fan¡¯s company was starting out, other than Yin Mo who helped him, Zhang Xin had also helped him a lot.

 Chapter 32

    Yin Xun¡¯s Revenge


    Now that the Zhang family¡¯s company had a cash flow problem, the Zhang family would definitely ask Si Fan for help. If Si Fan helped her, his company would also lose a lot of money. If he did not help, he would be labeled as an ungrateful person.


    So Si Fan, who was in a dilemma, decided to release the news. This way, the company¡¯s problems would be exposed and Zhang Xin would no longer be a rich girl. Without her background, the circle would no longer be able to accommodate her. Even if she wanted to contact Si Fan, as long as Si Fan rejected her, she would have no other choice.


    Everyone had the mentality of watching the drama unfold as they analyzed the situation. The more they analyzed, the more they felt that it was related to Si Fan. For a moment, everyone looked at Si Fan with a hint of vigilance. With such a cruel person, who could guarantee that the same thing would not happen to them?


    ¡°Yin Mo, take care of your older sister. Is there anyone who would treat their own sister¡¯s friend like this? Quick, help me!¡± Zhang Xin was rendered speechless by Yin Xun, and so she placed all her hopes on Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo was famous for being a good person in the circle. As long as she was asked for help, no matter if she had the ability or not, she would do her best. Now, Zhang Xin could only hope that Yin Mo would speak up.


    ¡°Sister, Zhang..¡±. Yin Mo was about to speak.


    Yin Xun directly picked up a piece of dessert and stuffed it into Yin Mo¡¯s mouth. She said with a smile, ¡°Little Sister, this piece of dessert is not bad. It looks delicious. Quickly try it.¡±


    Yin Mo nodded her head and quickly ate the dessert. She really thought that Yin Xun wanted her to taste the dessert, and after swallowing it, she even nodded her head and praised, ¡°The taste is really good.¡±


    Zhang Xin did not expect Yin Mo to really eat and praise the dessert. She was so angry that she rolled her eyes and pushed her away.


    ¡°Sister¡­¡± Yin Mo was about to continue speaking.


    Yin Xun stuffed another piece of dessert in and then smiled at her. ¡°This snack is not bad, try it.¡± After she finished speaking, she stood up and covered Yin Mo¡¯s mouth again. She said in a low voice in her ear, ¡°Shut up. Don¡¯t cause me any trouble outside.¡±


    Yin Xun did not let Yin Mo speak, and the people around them were quietly discussed Zhang Xin¡¯s family company. The friends who were originally standing beside Zhang Xin seemed to have a telepathic connection as they took a few steps away from Zhang Xin. She was instantly isolated.


    Seeing that the situation was getting more and more awkward, Xing Cheng, as the host, quickly tried to smooth things over. ¡°Everyone¡¯s here today for me. We¡¯re all friends, and today is my birthday. Let¡¯s not talk about those unhappy things. Everyone, please move along. Let me invite Miss Yin Xun for a dance alone.¡±


    Since Xing Cheng had already said so, the onlookers turned around and left to continue chatting with others. Zhang Xin also wanted to go with them, but after what had just happened, no one was willing to pay attention to her.


    ¡°Zhang Xin, don¡¯t forget that you have to pay to join our circle. The annual membership fee is so high, can you still afford it? We won¡¯t force you. Since you don¡¯t belong to this circle anymore, you should leave quickly. You¡¯ll only be a joke if you stay here.¡±


    The one who spoke was a girl who came with Zhang Xin. Before this, the two of them were best friends, but after knowing that Zhang Xin¡¯s family was going bankrupt, their expressions immediately changed.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, Zhang Xin. We¡¯re all friends after all. Let¡¯s be more decent. Don¡¯t wait for others to ask you to leave before we do.¡±


    The people around him also echoed the same sentiment.


    Seeing that no one would help her and everyone was avoiding her, Zhang Xin clenched her teeth in despair. She glared at Yin Xun and quickly left the banquet hall.


    Yin Xun looked at Zhang Xin¡¯s lonely back, but she could not feel any sympathy. In the novel, after Zhang Xin¡¯s family went bankrupt, it was Yin Mo who used the Yin family¡¯s money to help her make up for her expenses. In the end, Zhang Xin¡¯s family¡¯s company survived the difficulties, but the Yin family¡¯s company got worse and worse.


    How did Zhang Xin repay Yin Mo for her help? Under Si Fan¡¯s instructions, they worked together to hit the Yin family when they were down. Later, even though the entire Yin Corporation worked hard together, the company was still swallowed up by Si Fan bit by bit.


    She could not be soft-hearted towards such a person, or she would be the victim in the end.


    It was only when Zhang Xin¡¯s figure disappeared that Yin Xun retracted her gaze. At this moment, she saw a familiar figure. Was that her handsome neighbor? At this moment, the neighbor was striding down the stairs with his long legs. He was followed by five or six people, who were talking as they walked.

 Chapter 33

    The Topic Terminator


    ¡®Should I go and say hello later?¡¯


    Yin Xun thought for a moment. There were too many people here, so she better pretend she did not see anything.


    ¡°Recently, I have heard a lot of things about Miss Yin Xun. Miss Yin Xun is very decisive. She took over the company the moment she returned to the country and helped President Yin to handle the business. Today, I had a look at her and she really lives up to her reputation.¡± Xing Cheng could tell that Yin Xun was different from the other girls, so he changed the way he talked about her. After all, it was never wrong to praise someone.


    However, he had overlooked one point, and that was that Yin Xun was not an ordinary person.


    After hearing Xing Cheng¡¯s words, Yin Xun caught the main point and asked, ¡°Heard? Which big mouth did you hear that from?¡± As she asked, she looked at Yin Mo and Si Fan. Si Fan¡¯s expression was calm, and he did not have any reaction. However, Yin Mo¡¯s gaze was unfocused, and she did not dare to look her in the eye.


    Seeing her reaction, Yin Xun immediately understood. It seemed like not only did she have to prevent Yin Mo from making random decisions, she also had to prevent her from going out and talking nonsense. She had thought that Yin Mo was just a pure saint, but she did not expect her to be such a big mouth.


    Xing Cheng was speechless.


    Yin Xun was indeed the topic terminator. Why was her focus so different? Under normal circumstances, should she not be humble or praise him back?


    How was he going to continue the conversation?


    Even though he had been in love for many years and had a lot of experience in picking up girls, he could not bring it into play at this moment, because Yin Xun was completely different from other girls!


    However¡­


    Xing Cheng looked at Yin Xun. There had never been a girl who could ignore his pursuit. Perhaps Yin Xun was just using another method to attract his attention.


    ¡°Miss Yin, you are so interesting. Your younger sister and I are good friends. Do you mind sharing your contact information? We can meet up to have fun in the future when we have time. Xing Cheng revealed a smile that he thought was charming. At the same time, he took out his phone and was about to take down Yin Xun¡¯s number.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I mind.¡± Yin Xun held back her disgust and refused with a smile.


    Such an old-fashioned way of picking up girls was no longer popular in her world. Instead, it would make people feel that it was extremely greasy.


    Yin Xun really did not want to face this narcissistic and greasy man, so she gave him a big smile. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mr. Xing. I ate too many desserts just now and I feel greasy. I need to go out and digest it. I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll throw up if I stay here any longer.¡±


    ¡°Sister, are you feeling unwell? But I haven¡¯t seen you eat any desserts since you came here.¡± Yin Mo said with concern.


    ¡°That¡¯s because you didn¡¯t see it.¡± Yin Xun gave a perfunctory smile, then turned around and walked out.


    At the entrance of the club, Yin looked for a corner to sit and relax. There were all kinds of people in the banquet hall, and the air was too turbid. The air outside was better.


    Before they came, Yin Xun had asked Mary to find the photos of the bosses of each company and print them all on a piece of paper so that it would be easier for her to recognize people.


    Yin Xun saw that there was no one around, so she took out the paper full of photos from her bag and started to compare them with the people she had just seen.


    Fortunately, her memory was good. There were so many people in the hall, but she only had to glance around once to remember everyone present. After matching the faces with names, Yin Xun tore the paper into pieces and threw it into the trash can beside her. She was ready to go back.


    Now that she knew who those people were and which company they were in, she would observe their words and actions to fully understand which ones were suitable for cooperation and which ones should be kept away.


    ¡°It¡¯s you, indeed.¡±


    A familiar voice came from behind her. Yin Xun turned around and saw that it was her neighbor.


    She was not surprised at all that her neighbor was here. This was because the neighborhood she lived in was full of rich and powerful people. There were only a few people in the upper-class circle. Since the neighbors were not ordinary people, it was normal for them to come here to attend the banquet.


    ¡°What a coincidence, I didn¡¯t expect to meet you here.¡± Yin Xun smiled as she greeted him. She had already expressed her apology that night and had even helped her neighbor out, so the two of them were even now. She did not need to feel embarrassed.


    Seeing that Fang Yao seemed ready to leave, she asked, ¡°What, you¡¯re leaving?¡±


    Fang Yao nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯m waiting for the bus.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll be going back soon. If you need it, I can take you back. My car is nearby,¡± Yin Xun said casually.


    She did not expect Fang Yao accept her offer. He nodded his head seriously and said, ¡°My car broke down. If I can¡¯t get it fixed, I might really need your help.¡±


    ¡°No problem, it¡¯s not a big deal.¡±

 Chapter 34

    The Car Broke Down


    ¡°Oh right, I left in a hurry that night, so I didn¡¯t ask for your name. I¡¯m Yin Xun, what¡¯s yours?¡± She wanted to see what her neighbor¡¯s name was and if he had appeared in the novel before. What if he was an important character?


    ¡°Fang Yao.¡±


    ¡°Fang Yao¡­¡± Yin Xun repeated his name. Then, Fang Yao¡¯s eyes lit up as Yin Xun looked at him. She stared at him unblinkingly, as if¡­ she was looking at her prey?


    Yin Xun kept staring at him, and Fang Yao felt a chill down his spine.


    ¡°We¡¯ll be neighbors from now on, so please take care of me. If you¡¯re willing, you can come to my house anytime. I¡¯ll treat you to a meal!¡± Yin Xun spoke to him warmly, but she realized that she was being overly enthusiastic. She then added, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not a bad person!¡±


    Fang Yao was speechless.


    This feeling was really strange. Why did he feel that Yin Xun¡¯s current appearance was especially like that of a human trafficker who abducted and sold children? She said she was not a bad person, but it seemed that only bad people would emphasize that they were not bad people, right?


    ¡°I¡¯ll go in first. Call me if you need anything.¡±


    Fang Yao looked up. Without waiting for him to speak, Yin Xun walked into the club after saying this. Just like the last time she left, she did not give him a chance to speak.


    After Yin Xun entered the club, Fang Yao took out his phone and made a call.


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to come and pick me up if the car has broken down.¡± Fang Yao said indifferently.


    ¡°Huh?¡± the driver was confused. ¡°But I¡¯m in the parking lot.¡±


    ¡°No, the car broke down. You should go back and fix it.¡± Fang Yao said insistently.


    The driver was very confused, but he just had to follow his orders. If the boss wanted him to go back and repair the car, then he would do it.


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go repair the car.¡± After the driver hung up the phone, he drove directly to the repair shop.


    Alright, now that there was no car, he had a reason to hitch a ride from Yin Xun. Actually, getting a free ride was just an excuse. He mainly wanted to understand Yin Xun. After all, this was the first time he had seen a girl using a telescope to peep at her male neighbors the moment she moved in. What he was most curious about was why Yin Xun was so¡­ uh¡­ excited when he heard his name.


    Indeed, after hearing the name Fang Yao, Yin Xun was really excited. This was because she did not see this character when she was reading the novel. In other words, Fang Yao was a completely new character.


    A new character would appear around her, which meant that her story line had already begun. In general, there were only two possibilities for a new character to appear in a story. One was to be a tool for the relationship or career development of the male and female protagonists. The other was a major character, a mysterious person hidden in the background of the story. Such people were usually just a background character in the novel. There could not be too much focus on them, or the focus on the male protagonist would not be able to develop.


    Fang Yao was obviously not a prop, because the only person he had interacted with was Yin Xun. He did not know Yin Mo. It was obvious that Fang Yao belonged to the latter category, the powerful background.


    Yin Xun had never heard of this person before. It seemed that when she returned home, she would have to find out from Yin Cheng what Fang Yao¡¯s identity was. Back then, in order to quickly understand this world, she had investigated a lot of famous big shots, but she did not find the name Fang Yao. Since she could not find anything online, she would ask Yin Cheng.


    Would novels not usually have this kind of setting? The truly powerful people were hidden in the deepest part of the world. They usually kept it a secret very well, and no one outside knew their identity. Perhaps Fang Yao was such a person?


    Her neighbor was a hidden big shot. This was a good thing that fell from the sky. She had to grasp this opportunity tightly. She could not let the big shot¡­ Oh no, the big shot¡­ fly away from her!


    When Yin Xun returned to the banquet hall, Si Fan was talking to Xing Cheng. Yin Xun only glanced at them before walking to the side. She waited quietly by herself. She wanted everyone to ignore her.


    It was a pity that the more she hated something, the more it would happen. After Yin Mo saw Yin Xun come in, she pulled Si Fan over to talk.


    ¡°Sister, Si Fan wants to treat you to dinner tonight. Including Xing Cheng, it¡¯ll just be the four of us. What do you think?¡± Yin Mo asked obediently.


    ¡°What¡¯s so good about eating out? If you want to eat together, then let him come to our house.¡± Yin Xun glanced at Si Fan indifferently and rejected him without any politeness.


    Yin Mo stood there awkwardly and did not know what to say.


    Xing Cheng¡¯s skin was rather thick. He was rendered speechless by Yin Xun¡¯s refusal just now, but he was still not giving up at this moment. She walked over with two glasses of red wine in her hands, planning to continue to woo Yin Xun. This was the first time he had met a girl who was so stubborn that even he could not handle her.

 Chapter 35

    You Drink It For Me


    While Yin Xun was out, Xing Cheng was mocked by Si Fan. He did not expect that Xing Cheng, who was famous for being a playboy, would actually find a woman he could not handle. This was undoubtedly the greatest humiliation to him, so he made a bet with Si Fan that he would definitely win Yin Xun¡¯s heart in two months and make her unable to leave him.


    The bet was half of the club¡¯s shares. Money was nothing to him, but he could not lose to a woman. However, Yin Xun really knew how to flirt. He could not rush to chase this kind of woman. He had to do it step by step. ¡°Miss Yin, I apologize for the unpleasant things that happened in the beginning. Don¡¯t overthink this. I really just want to be friends with you. Zhang Xin¡¯s is the only daughter, and she¡¯s been spoiled since she was young, so she treats everyone like that. Please don¡¯t take it to heart. This glass is my apology on her behalf.¡±


    After he finished speaking, he passed the wine glass in his hand to Yin Xun. Yin Xun did not take it. She just looked at Xing Cheng quietly. Xing Cheng did not panic under her gaze. He calmly continued to raise his glass and motioned for her to take it.


    He turned his head and looked deeply at Yin Mo. Yin Xun took the glass, but she was not in a hurry to drink it. Instead, she raised it and shook it slowly.


    She had only wanted to observe those successful people in silence, but this annoying Xing Cheng kept pestering her. She knew exactly what Xing Cheng was up to, and she had hated this character since she had been reading novels.


    She remembered that in the novel, Xing Cheng especially liked ¡®clean¡¯ women. Every time, he would order his subordinates to find him a virgin, and then he would sleep with them and not care about them anymore. The most important thing was that some of these women were willing, while some were drugged and forced.


    He wondered how much the author of this novel liked these things in bad taste. He actually wrote such a character who did whatever he wanted with his money. The girls who were forced to do so were angry but dared not say anything. Even if they sued him, they were all settled by him with money.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Mr. Xing. I¡¯ve always taken my revenge. I want to tell you something. I have a good friend. She¡¯s very beautiful and her family is rich. I think only a tall, rich, and handsome man like you is worthy of her. Do you want her contact information?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Xing Cheng¡¯s interest was immediately piqued when he heard that there was a beauty. He wanted to, but he remembered that he was at the stage of betting with Si Fan. He had to conquer Yin Xun first before looking for other women. Since he wanted to conquer Yin Xun, it was very important to leave a good impression in her heart. He could not show that he was too interested in other beautiful women.


    ¡°Since she is Miss Yin¡¯s friend, then it would be good for me to make another friend, but I definitely do not have any other thoughts. I just purely want to make another friend.¡± Xing Cheng said in a serious tone.


    Yin Xun acknowledged and put down the red wine. She rummaged through her bag and found a business card. She smiled in satisfaction when she saw the name on it.


    Xing Cheng saw that Yin Xun was not drinking up and even put the glass aside. A trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.


    ¡°Here you go. She¡¯s a doctor who treats sexually transmitted diseases. Her medical skills are excellent and she has cured many people. She¡¯s from a family of doctors, and she¡¯s pretty. I think you two look very compatible.¡± Yin Xun passed the business card to Xing Cheng.


    Xing Cheng¡¯s expression turned sour when she heard Yin Xun say that her friend was a doctor specializing in STDs. Before he could speak, Yin Xun continued, ¡°By the way, this friend of mine is good at everything, but she can¡¯t accept men fooling around. When her boyfriend cheated on her, she perfectly used her professional skills to take revenge on her boyfriend. You know that, but as long as you don¡¯t mess around with her, you¡¯ll be fine.¡±


    Yin Xun spoke very seriously, but Xing Cheng felt disgusted when he heard it.


    Did Yin Xun just say that the doctor had infected her ex-boyfriend with sexually transmitted diseases? He did not dare to come into contact with this kind of woman. Even a few lives would not be enough to survive her. Hence, he pretended to agree and quickly stuffed the business card into his pocket. Out of sight, out of mind.


    Seeing Xing Cheng¡¯s reaction, Yin Xun was very satisfied and continued, ¡°I heard that Mr. Xing is very carefree. To prevent any accidents, I think it¡¯s better for you to save her phone number in case you need it one day.¡±


    At this point, Xing Cheng finally realized that Yin Xun was toying with him. She was mocking him for having a messy sex life.


    However, he could not lose his temper. He could only force a smile and agree perfunctorily.


    ¡°Miss Yin, do you want to give me some face and have a drink?¡± Xing Cheng reminded her as she looked at the wine glass that Yin Xun had placed at the side.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I drank too much. I can¡¯t drink anymore. However, I haven¡¯t touched this glass yet. As a gentleman, can you drink it for me?¡± Yin Xun picked up the wine glass and poured the red wine into Xing Cheng¡¯s glass under Xing Cheng¡¯s gaze.

 Chapter 36

    Neighbor Hitchhiker


    Yin Xun finished pouring the wine and pretended to be embarrassed as she asked, ¡°Mr. Xing, you won¡¯t mind, right?¡±


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s actions, Xing Cheng forced a smile. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to maintain his elegant demeanor. He lowered his voice and said word by word, ¡°Of course I don¡¯t mind.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s good. You¡¯re indeed a gentleman.¡± Yin Xun complimented.


    However, after complimenting him, Yin Xun saw that Xing Cheng still made no move to drink it. She asked in confusion, ¡°Mr. Xing, why aren¡¯t you drinking? As expected, you¡¯re upset? I thought you were different from the others. I thought you were a gentleman and would help, but now it seems¡­¡±


    Halfway through her sentence, Yin Xun felt nauseated. She felt goosebumps all over her body. She suppressed the cold shiver and forced herself to look at Xing Cheng with anticipation.


    Yin Xun was beautiful. She had just drunk a little wine, so there was a thin layer of red on her face, which made her look particularly attractive. She looked at Xing Cheng expectantly again, and Xing Cheng suddenly felt his blood boiling. In a moment of dizziness, he raised his glass and drank the wine.


    Yin Xun saw that Xing Cheng had finished the wine and smiled in satisfaction.


    She really did not want to stay with this kind of person any longer, so she found an excuse to leave. ¡°Alright, I still have something to do, so I¡¯ll be leaving first. The gift is with Yin Mo. You can ask her for it.¡±


    Even though Xing Cheng was unwilling to let Yin Xun leave just like that, he was already feeling a little uncomfortable. He had added something to the wine, and was afraid that the effect would not be enough, so he had specially added extra. He did not expect that he would drink it in the end.¡±


    However, it was not completely fruitless. At least Yin Xun had a good impression of him, and there would be more opportunities in the future.


    When Yin Xun disappeared from Xing Cheng¡¯s sight, he gave Si Fan a look. Si Fan nodded slightly, then took out his phone and sent a text message.


    While Si Fan was sending the text message, Xing Cheng rushed upstairs alone. He walked very quickly and looked very nauseous.


    Looking at Xing Cheng¡¯s back view as he left in a hurry, Yin Mo, who was standing beside Si Fan, was puzzled. She stuck her head out and looked at Si Fan¡¯s phone, wanting to see what message he was sending.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with Xing Cheng?¡± Yin Mo¡¯s head had just peeked over when Si Fan reacted quickly. He immediately turned off the screen of his phone and put it away.


    ¡°Maybe he¡¯s tired and wants to rest,¡± Si Fan said indifferently. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about him.¡±


    Yin Mo never doubted Si Fan¡¯s words. She did not have any other thoughts and continued to follow Si Fan obediently.


    When Xing Cheng went upstairs, the drug had already taken effect. He forced himself to endure the burning sensation in his body and stumbled back to his room.


    Pushing the door open, Xing Cheng fell directly on the soft bed. At this moment, his forehead was covered with sweat.


    After a few minutes, a fat man with a fierce face came in carrying a woman. The woman¡¯s body was soft and she seemed to be unconscious.


    Fatty walked to the bed and placed the woman on it. Then, he said in a flattering manner, ¡°Boss, I¡¯ve brought her to you. President Si said that she¡¯s still a virgin. She¡¯s a nobody and is very clean.¡±


    After saying that, fatty left the room as he always did.


    Xing Cheng could barely suppress the burning desire in his body. He looked at the woman lying beside him. Her face was not stunning, but her skin was fair and she had a good figure, which attracted him. Moreover, the woman seemed to have taken a bath in advance and was wearing a loose nightgown, which was half-covered and half-exposed, making her look even more seductive.


    ¡°Si Fan really knows how to pick people. I¡¯m so satisfied with him every time.¡± Xing Cheng smiled and slowly took off the woman¡¯s robe¡­


    ¡­


    Yin Xun went straight to the parking lot. She had driven here by herself and had just had a little red wine. She was not sure if she should find a substitute driver.


    As she sat in the car, she was in a dilemma. She heard someone knocking on the window. She turned around and saw that it was Fang Yao.


    Yin Xun rolled down the window and asked with a smile, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? You don¡¯t have a car?¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°The driver sent the car for repairs. It¡¯s a little remote here, so it¡¯s not easy to get a taxi. I can only trouble you to give me a lift.¡±


    ¡°No problem, but have you been drinking?¡± Yin Xun opened the car door and stepped out.


    Fang Yao shook his head.


    Seeing this, Yin Xun laughed. ¡°That¡¯s just right. I just had a little drink. If you haven¡¯t drunk, then you can drive. Do you mind?¡± Yin Xun asked with her head slightly tilted as she held the keys up.

 Chapter 37

    The Gossipy Butler


    This was exactly what Yin Xun wanted. She had been worried about how to get closer to Fang Yao naturally, and this opportunity had come.


    She would give him a ride first, and then use this opportunity to chat and get to know each other. After they got to know each other, they would naturally become friends. If Fang Yao was really a big shot, then she would naturally be able to ride his coattails.


    ¡°Alright,¡± he said. Fang Yao took the car keys and opened the front passenger door for Yin Xun like a gentleman before he sat in the driver¡¯s seat.


    ¡°You¡¯re quite attentive.¡± Yin Xun teased.


    Fang Yao nodded and said, ¡°After all, I was the one who got a free ride first.¡±


    So it was because he wanted to hitch a ride. Yin Xun was a little disappointed. As expected of a big shot, he was clear and organized. It seemed that she would need to spend some effort to tackle him.


    ¡°When did you move to that villa area?¡± Yin Xun wanted to get closer to Fang Yao, but they had just met and could not be too hasty. She was afraid of scaring Fang Yao, so she started with a light topic.


    As expected, Fang Yao did not reject such questions and answered them one by one.


    He answered every question Yin Xun asked, and as the two of them chatted, they finally arrived at the housing neighborhood.


    Although the two of them were neighbors, the area was spacious, and the villas were quite far apart from each other. Therefore, when the car arrived at Fang Yao¡¯s villa, Yin Xun still had to drive a short distance before she could reach home.


    ¡°Alright, we¡¯re home. I¡¯ll drive the remaining section myself. Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao intended to continue driving and quickly said, ¡°I¡¯m not drunk anymore.¡±


    ¡°Alright,¡± he said. Fang Yao did not stand on ceremony. After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, he opened the door and got out of the car. It was only a short distance anyway, and there would not be any danger.


    After Fang Yao got out of the car, Yin Xun also got out of the car and went around to the driver¡¯s side.


    ¡°Thank you for tonight. I owe you a favor. If you need help in the future, just let me know.¡± Fang Yao thanked Yin Xun.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. It¡¯s normal for neighbors to help each other. Don¡¯t mind it.¡± Yin Xun laughed carefreely, then stepped on the accelerator and drove back to her house.


    Fang Yao turned around and saw the butler watering the flowers in the courtyard. At this moment, the butler had a gossipy expression on his face, and his face was full of smiles.


    ¡°Young Master, that person just now was Miss Yin from next door, right? Did you two just came back together?¡± The butler¡¯s gossipy heart was ignited.


    ¡°Yes, I just happened to meet her.¡± Fang Yao said indifferently.


    ¡°But, Young Master, where¡¯s your car?¡± the butler asked, confused.


    ¡°There was a problem, so I sent it for repairs. I asked Miss Yin to give me a lift.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s expression did not change, and his tone was calm.


    ¡°But I just bought the car,¡± the butler mumbled, ¡°How could there be a problem? It seems like there¡¯s something wrong with the brand. I¡¯ll have to avoid this brand when I buy a car in the future.¡±


    After the butler finished mumbling, he looked at Fang Yao and continued, ¡°But Young Master, I think that Miss Yin next door is really not bad. She has a good personality, is beautiful, and is capable. I feel that she is quite compatible with you.¡±


    He thought about how Fang Yao had said that she was his girlfriend that night. At that time, he had been shocked and wondered which family this girl was from. She had actually caught the Young Master¡¯s eye.


    Although he knew that his Young Master had only done it to chase Gu Miao away, he still found it unbelievable. After all, his Young Master had never been so close to a girl before.


    After he asked around, he found out that the girl that night was the Young Miss of the Yin family. Not only was she highly educated, but she was also able to help her father manage the company at a young age and was very organized. The most important thing was that the Yin family¡¯s company was doing legitimate business, and it was clean. His first reaction was that this Miss Yin was really compatible with his young master.


    ¡°You seem to like her.¡± Fang Yao held his forehead and said helplessly.


    ¡°Of course. Just by looking at her, I can tell that she¡¯s much better than Miss Gu. Miss Gu always gives off the feeling of a nasty woman when she talks.¡± At the thought of Gu Miao, the butler revealed a look of disdain.


    ¡°You really know how to describe her.¡± Fang Yao looked at him indifferently and planned to enter the house.


    The butler heard his words and said proudly, ¡°Of course. I¡¯ve lived for so many years and watched countless idol dramas. I know people with nasty personalities too well. Other than that stereotype, there¡¯s also the saintess personality that¡¯s very annoying.¡±


    The butler kept talking, but it did not affect his movements at all. He took the coat that Fang Yao handed over and helped him hang it up carefully. He then went to pour a glass of water for Fang Yao.

 Chapter 38

    Begging For Food From The Neighbors


    ¡°However, after all, there¡¯s no knowing what¡¯s in a person¡¯s heart. To truly understand a person, you still need to observe more.¡± The butler spoke his thoughts honestly.


    ¡°Is there anything to eat at home?¡± Fang Yao quickly changed the topic. If he did not, the butler would continue talking.


    When Fang Yao asked this, the butler did not say anything more. He thought for a while and replied, ¡°Because you always tell me in advance every time you eat at home. You didn¡¯t tell me this time, so we only have the desserts flown in from France yesterday. Are you hungry? If you want to eat, I¡¯ll have someone prepare it now.¡±


    Fang Yao shook his head. ¡°There¡¯s no need to go through so much trouble. Just heat up the desserts.¡±


    ¡°Alright,¡± he said. The butler quickly went to prepare.


    On Yin Xun¡¯s side, after she returned home, she first changed into a set of comfortable pajamas before she started to remove her makeup and washed up. After she was done, she sat on the sofa and was about to read some documents when her stomach started to growl.


    She had only had a little red wine that night and did not even eat any snacks. Now that she was home, her stomach immediately protested.


    She got up and went to the kitchen to take a look, but there was nothing. Then she went to the refrigerator to look and found that the vegetables in the refrigerator were all spoiled.


    She could not go out for a meal because this area was isolated. Almost every house had a maid, and there were no restaurants nearby. Yin Xun clutched her growling stomach, her face full of worry.


    In this state, she definitely could not focus on reading the documents. It was not time to sleep yet, so she had no choice but to go to the balcony to get some fresh air. Maybe she would feel better.


    Yin Xun stared at the sky and emptied her mind. As expected, this method was very effective. She immediately felt her stomach feel much better.


    ¡°Pa¡ª¡± The window opposite was opened, and Fang Yao appeared in front of Yin Xun with a cup in his hand. The two of them were stunned when they saw each other.


    Because Yin Xun had ¡°peeked¡± at him before, and now that she had been seen on the balcony, she was afraid that Fang Yao would misunderstand, so Yin Xun quickly explained, ¡°I didn¡¯t peek at you this time. I was here just now to look at the stars.¡±


    Fang Yao looked in the direction Yin Xun was pointing and looked up at the sky. Dark clouds covered the sky tonight, and only a little of the moon was visible. There were no stars at all.


    Fang Yao was speechless.


    Yin Xun was speechless.


    It might have been better if she did not explain, but with this explanation, she seemed to be even more suspicious.


    ¡°Are you planning to sleep?¡± Fang Yao took a look at Yin Xun¡¯s pajamas and changed the topic considerately.


    Seeing that he did not mind this, Yin Xun secretly heaved a sigh of relief and replied, ¡°I wanted to sleep, but I didn¡¯t eat tonight. I¡¯ll sleep after I¡¯m no longer hungry.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Fang Yao frowned. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you eat? Was there nothing to your liking at the banquet?¡±


    ¡°The food there was too greasy. I couldn¡¯t eat it,¡± Yin Xun shook her head.


    Fang Yao did not think much of her words and assumed that Yin Xun did not like the food there. He nodded and said, ¡°I still have some snacks at home. They¡¯re not greasy and are quite light. Do you want some?¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Yin Xun instantly perked up. ¡°But it¡¯s not good to eat your food for free. How about this, how much do you think is appropriate? I¡¯ll give you the money later.¡±


    ¡°No need for money. After all, I also sat in your car tonight.¡± Fang Yao said indifferently.


    ¡°Then I won¡¯t say no. Can I go over now?¡± Yin Xun looked at him in anticipation.


    Fang Yao was speechless.


    He had thought that Yin Xun would be reserved and wait for him to take the initiative to tell her how to give it to her. He did not expect her to be so forward and directly go to his door to get it herself.


    ¡°You don¡¯t need to come. I¡¯ll get someone to send it over to you.¡± After Fang Yao finished speaking, he left from the window.


    Yin Xun was famished and immediately ran to the door in anticipation, waiting for Fang Yao to get someone to bring the food.


    Within a few minutes, the villa¡¯s doorbell rang, and a kind-looking middle-aged man appeared on the display screen at the door. It was Fang Yao¡¯s butler, and he was holding a lunchbox in his hand.


    After Yin Xun thanked the butler, she opened the lunchbox and started to eat. The food in the lunchbox was still steaming. It seemed that it had just been heated up. Other than an exquisite snack, there was also a glass of hot milk.


    She did not expect Fang Yao to be so considerate, and she was very grateful.

 Chapter 39

    The Fang Family


    The desserts tasted great. Yin Xun finished them quickly, then went to the balcony to see if she would meet Fang Yao again. After all, she had eaten his food, so she should thank him again.


    Yin Xun saw that the light opposite was still on. This time, the curtains were not drawn, and she could clearly see Fang Yao sitting at the table and reading.


    Seeing that Fang Yao was focused on his own work, Yin Xun did not intend to disturb him and returned to her room. Unexpectedly, just as she turned around, Fang Yao¡¯s voice came from behind.


    ¡°Are you full? If you¡¯re not, I still have more.¡± Fang Yao stood by the window and asked her.


    ¡°Yes, I¡¯m full. It¡¯s very good. Thank you!¡± Yin Xun thanked him with a smile.


    Fang Yao nodded his head slightly. ¡°It;s fine,¡± he said calmly. ¡°You helped me too.¡±


    ¡°Can we be considered friends? I thought that we would become neighbors with conflicts because of our first misunderstanding. I didn¡¯t expect you to be such a nice person. Do you want to be friends? We can help each other in the future.¡±


    This was a good time to get close to Fang Yao. Yin Xun struck while the iron was hot and took the opportunity to get closer to Fang Yao. Anyway, no matter who Fang Yao was, there was no harm in being friends first.


    Facing Yin Xun¡¯s expectant gaze, Fang Yao actually had a feeling that he could not bear to reject her. It was as if he would hurt her if he rejected her now.


    ¡°Are we not friends now?¡± Fang Yao replied subconsciously.


    Upon hearing this answer, Yin Xun¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. She hurriedly replied, ¡°Yes! Of course we are!¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes were burning as he stared at Fang Yao, the corners of her mouth almost reaching the back of her ears.


    Fang Yao did not understand why Yin Xun was so happy, but he felt as if he had said something incredible, and he felt a little nervous.


    Could he take back what he had just said? He kept feeling that the way Yin Xun was looking at him was not normal.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll rest first. I¡¯ll treat you to a meal when I have time.¡±


    ¡°Alright,¡± he said.


    Yin Xun said goodbye to Fang Yao, then closed the balcony door and went into her room.


    As Yin Xun¡¯s figure disappeared from his sight, Fang Yao closed the bedroom window.


    He walked out of the bedroom and saw the butler walking towards him. ¡°Young Master, you have given all the food in the house to miss Yin. What are you going to do tonight?¡± he asked. Do you want me to send for some food?¡±


    ¡°No, I¡¯m not hungry.¡±


    ¡°By the way, get someone to prepare more food at home tomorrow. Get a big variety.¡± Fang Yao thought for a moment and instructed the butler.


    The butler glanced at Fang Yao¡¯s bedroom door and remembered that he had just delivered food to Yin Xun. He immediately understood what Fang Yao meant and agreed with a smile, ¡°Okay, don¡¯t worry, Young Master. I will definitely prepare all kinds of delicious desserts. Haha, Miss Yin is really not bad. This is the first time that I have seen you put so much effort for a girl.¡±


    Hearing the butler¡¯s words, Fang Yao replied calmly, ¡°Neighbors see each other all the time, so it¡¯s normal for them to help each other.¡±


    The butler did not believe him and continued to ask, ¡°Young Master, do you really not have any feelings for Miss Yin? Tonight, you would rather let yourself go hungry, all to give Miss Yin food. This is already not just being good to the neighbors, right? Young Master, if you are interested in Miss Yin, but you are too embarrassed to say it out loud, then it¡¯s fine. I can help you.¡±


    Faced with the butler¡¯s enthusiasm, Fang Yao sighed softly and said, ¡°It¡¯s not that complicated. Alright, you can go back to your work.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s unspoken meaning was to ask the butler to quickly find something to do. He did not expect the butler to be quite happy. Perhaps he felt that he had spoken to Fang Yao¡¯s heart, so he left with a smile.


    Based on his observations, there was something going on between Miss Yin and the Young Master. He would definitely not be wrong when he judged people.


    Fang Yao¡¯s attitude towards Yin Xun was not obvious yet, but Yin Xun¡¯s attitude towards Fang Yao was very obvious.


    After she returned to the bedroom, she could not wait to pick up her phone and call Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng seemed to be working as he quickly picked up the call.


    Yin Xun asked him about Fang Yao, and Yin Cheng was instantly nervous. He quickly asked her, ¡°Why are you suddenly asking about him? Did you offend him?¡±


    Hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s slightly flustered tone, Yin Xun immediately understood. This Fang Yao was indeed not ordinary, or else her father would not be so nervous. After all, although the Yin family was not the most powerful, they still had a certain amount of influence in the circle. Most companies would have to be wary of them.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I didn¡¯t. I was just curious. After all, I¡¯ve never heard of this person,¡± Yin Xun explained.

 Chapter 40

    Yin Mo Was Caught


    Hearing that Yin Xun did not offend him, Yin Cheng heaved a long sigh of relief, ¡°That¡¯s good. Ah Xun, you have to remember that you can work with whoever you want, or go against whoever you want, but the Fang family is the only family you can not offend. Oh, no, I mean, you can not get close to them.¡±


    ¡°The Fang family is that strong?¡± Yin Xun thought for a moment and continued to ask, ¡°Do you know who Fang Yao is to the Fang family?¡±


    However, Yin Cheng did not intend to tell her anything about this matter. He advised, ¡°As long as it¡¯s someone from the Fang family, no matter who it is, they¡¯re not people we can afford to offend. Remember dad¡¯s words, don¡¯t ever get involved with the Fang family!¡±


    Seeing Yin Cheng¡¯s reaction, Yin Xun knew that she would not be able to get anything out of him.


    Yin Xun cursed in her heart. Not only did she come into contact with the Fang family, but they were also her neighbors. However, she did not dare to tell Yin Cheng about this matter. What if Yin Cheng was too afraid and asked her to move again?


    ¡°Ah Xun, do you remember daddy¡¯s words?¡± Yin Cheng was afraid that his daughter would cause trouble and repeatedly warned her.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, dad. It¡¯s fine. Your daughter knows what¡¯s important.¡± Yin Xun only told Yin Cheng that she would not cause any trouble, but she did not promise that she would not come into contact with the Fang family.


    However, when Yin Cheng heard this, he thought that Yin Xun had agreed to his words, and he hung up the call with a peace of mind.


    After Yin Xun hung up the phone, she started to think about how to get Fang Yao to join her business. If she had such a big shot to help her, she would not have to worry about Si Fan at all.


    Since Fang Yao¡¯s background was so strong, and she was sure that she wanted to work with him, then she had to plan well. At least, she had to let nature take its course when they were discussing the cooperation. She could not let Fang Yao see that she was deliberately getting close to him.


    In order to gain Fang Yao¡¯s trust, Yin Xun took a day off the next day and focused on studying the project plan at home. This was her own project. The internet was not developed yet, so she wanted to be the first person to capitalize on it in this world.


    After sitting in front of the table for half a day, she finally finished writing the proposal. Yin Xun stretched her back lazily, and looked at the time. It was already one in the afternoon. Now that she was free, she felt that her stomach was already growling.


    Yin Xun was planning to get something to eat. She picked up her phone and realized that she had more than ten missed calls from an unknown number. She did not hear a thing. She was afraid that something had happened at the company, so Yin Xun called back directly. She could wait for the meal, it would be bad if it delayed important work.


    She did not expect the other side to pick up so quickly. The line started ringing when the other side picked up. She could tell from the voice that the person on the other side was a rough man with a slight accent.


    ¡°Hello, who¡¯s this?¡± The man asked impatiently.


    ¡°Weren¡¯t you the one who called me just now?¡± Yin Xun frowned. ¡°Why did you call so many times?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re Yin Xun?¡±


    ¡°Yes, I am. What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ve finally picked up the phone. If you didn¡¯t contact me, you¡¯d have to wait to collect your sister¡¯s corpse. Yin Mo is in our hands now. If you don¡¯t want her to get hurt, then I advise you not to tell anyone about it. I¡¯ll send you the address, and you can come over yourself. Otherwise, we¡¯ll kill her,¡± the man said in a commanding tone.


    ¡°Alright, then you kill the hostage.¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    In her previous world, she would receive scamming calls every now and then, so she was already used to it. She did not expect that there would be such scammers in this world.


    The man was speechless.


    The man had thought of a few possible reactions that Yin Xun might have. She might have called the police, or he might have begged for money in exchange for her, but he had never thought that it would be this reaction.


    So, Yin Xun meant that she did not care about Yin Mo¡¯s life or death?


    ¡°Alright, next time when you¡¯re lying, please be more professional.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she directly hung up the phone.


    However, before she could put down the phone, the other side called again. This scammer was really persistent. Yin Xun ridiculed him as she picked up the call. She wanted to see how he was going to continue making things up. However, just as he picked up the call this time, he heard Yin Mo¡¯s voice from the other end.


    ¡°Big Sister, save me. They have captured me¡­ Wuwu¡­¡± Yin Mo cried out for help. After that, her voice suddenly stopped, and only the sound of sobbing was left. It sounded like someone had covered her mouth.


    ¡°Yin Mo?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s expression darkened as he did not expect Yin Mo to really be kidnapped.


    ¡°Now you believe me, don¡¯t you? You think I¡¯m a scammer? Let me tell you, if you want your sister to live, don¡¯t call the police. Come here alone. I¡¯ll send the address to your phone later, so don¡¯t play any tricks.¡±


    After the man finished speaking, he did not give Yin Xun any chance to reply and hung up the phone.

 Chapter 41 - 41 Can’t find Yin Mo

    41 Can¡¯t find Yin Mo


    Could it be that Yin Mo had really been kidnapped? Judging from Yin Mo¡¯s voice just now, it did not seem to be fake.


    While Yin Xun was trying to figure out the truth of the matter, she suddenly received a text message on her phone. It was from the kidnapper¡ªthere was an address written clearly on it.


    Yin Xun was speechless. She wondered if the kidnapper was honest enough to send her the detailed address just like that. He did not even seem afraid that she would call the police.


    It appeared as though the other party was certain that she would go to save Yin Mo alone.


    !!


    Yin Xun recalled the original plot. Before Si Fan seized the Yin family¡¯s assets, Yin Mo had always been safe and had never encountered such a predicament.


    Could the plot have changed because of her transmigration?


    However, Yin Xun quickly rejected this idea. Putting aside the duration she had been in this world, the things she had done here were all trivial matters. There was no way her actions could have affected the development of the plot, at least not for now.


    With that being the case, there was only one answer.


    Yin Xun changed into a casual outfit and put on a pair of comfortable sports shoes. Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang again.


    She sighed and whipped it out. It was Wu Li.


    As soon as she picked up the call, Wu Li¡¯s anxious voice came through.


    ¡°Ah Xun, where¡¯s your sister? Didn¡¯t you go to a party with her yesterday? Where is she now? Why can¡¯t I get through to her phone?¡± Wu Li sounded like she was about to cry. Her voice was fraught with worry.


    ¡°Mother, don¡¯t be anxious. Speak slowly. When did you start being unable to contact Yin Mo?¡± Even though Yin Xun knew where Yin Mo was, she could not tell Wu Li directly.


    Wu Li loved her daughter dearly and was already beside herself with worry when she could not contact Yin Mo. If she learned that Yin Mo had been kidnapped, she would lose her mind.


    Upon hearing Yin Xun¡¯s question, Wu Li sobbed and said, ¡°We were still in contact last night, and she told me that she would come home to stay the night. I went to bed very early yesterday. When I woke up, I realized that not only had she not returned, but I couldn¡¯t even get through to her phone! It¡¯s all my fault. If only I hadn¡¯t been sleeping last night¡­¡±


    ¡°Did you ask Si Fan? She was with Si Fan yesterday. Logically speaking, Si Fan should have been the one to send her home.¡± Yin Xun continued asking questions as she walked toward the garage.


    Wu Li replied, ¡°I¡¯ve looked for Si Fan. But his phone seems to be switched off. I can¡¯t get through to him either. Do you think that something happened to them?¡±


    Si Fan was such a cunning man. How could something happen to him out of nowhere? It was more likely that he was using Yin Mo to scheme against others.


    Yin Xun cursed in her heart but did not voice her thoughts aloud.


    Seeing that Wu Li was incredibly anxious, she comforted her patiently, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Mom. I¡¯m sure they¡¯ll be fine. They must have gone out to play again and forgotten to tell you. I¡¯ll go find them. I promise to bring them back safely.¡±


    ¡°Ah Xun, then I¡¯ll leave it to you. You have to be careful too. If you can¡¯t handle it yourself, you can ask your father and brother for help. Don¡¯t overexert yourself. I don¡¯t want to see you get hurt.¡± After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s comforting words, Wu Li suddenly felt more at ease.


    She did not know what was going on, but she had an instinctive trust in her eldest daughter. It was as though whenever Yin Xun said that she could do something, things would never go wrong.


    Yin Xun consoled Wu Li a little more before hanging up.


    Her mother was a kind person in every aspect, but she doted on her child too much and could not bear to scold her. Even if her child made a mistake, she would still defend her. If her child was sick or injured, she would want to suffer twice the pain herself.


    Perhaps, Yin Mo¡¯s personality was the result of Wu Li¡¯s spoiling.


    Yin Xun stepped on the accelerator and drove the car out of his garage. When she passed the gates of the villa next door, she spotted Fang Yao, who had just come out of the house.


    ¡°Morning. Have you eaten?¡± The moment Yin Xun saw Fang Yao, her eyes lit up and she quickly greeted him.


    This man was a big shot, and she could not waste any opportunity to get close to him.


    ¡°Is it still early? I¡¯ve had breakfast, though I haven¡¯t had lunch,¡± Fang Yao replied indifferently.


    ¡°Okay, good afternoon, then. Are you heading out? Has your car been fixed? Do you want me to take you there?¡± Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao was dressed neatly and looked like he was about to go out, which was why she made this offer to him.


    She was very mindful of her relationship with the neighbors. Furthermore, she needed Fang Yao¡¯s help. She could not let this big shot remain a mere stranger to her.

 Chapter 42 - 42 We are really bound by fate

    42 We are really bound by fate


    ¡°Would that be convenient? You seem to be busy.¡± Fang Yao walked over to Yin Xun¡¯s car and bent over slightly to peer through the window to see her.


    ¡°It¡¯s no problem,¡± Yin Xun instantly answered. ¡°I¡¯m just going to act in a show. There¡¯s no hurry.¡±


    With that, she quickly threw open the front passenger door for Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    !!


    He had not even said where he was going.


    ¡°Where are you going? If it¡¯s on the way, I¡¯ll hitch a ride. If not, I¡¯ll find my own transport.¡± Fang Yao made no hurry to get into the car, instead asking Yin Xun this question first.


    Yin Xun had planned to agree to go with him regardless of where his destination was. Naturally, she had to put the big shot first. She had to make the big shot happy first, then any subsequent business would be easier to discuss.


    Alas, the big shot¡¯s answer did not fit her plans. She had wanted to wait for Fang Yao to reveal his location first so she could say that she was going to the same area.


    Since Fang Yao was not going to tell her, she had no choice but to tell him where she was going.


    ¡°It just so happens that the place I¡¯m going to is nearby. I¡¯ll have to trouble you again.¡± Fang Yao offered a small smile and sat in the front passenger seat.


    The Butler just happened to come out to water the flowers and saw Fang Yao getting into Yin Xun¡¯s car. ¡°Are all the five cars in the garage not working?¡± he asked aloud, feeling puzzled. ¡°Young Master is getting a ride in Miss Yin¡¯s car again¡­¡±


    Yin Xun started the car at the same moment the Butler emerged from the house, so she did not see him or hear what he said.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t think that we would be so bound by fate. To think that we¡¯re going to the same place twice in a row.¡± Yin Xun seemed to be speaking casually, but she had actually prepared many of these lines that would get her closer to Fang Yao.


    ¡°Miss Yin, did you mention that you¡¯re going to act? Are you thinking of changing your job or something?¡± For some reason, Fang Yao felt that Yin Xun¡¯s gaze on him was even more intense than last night, which made him a little flustered.


    Because of that, he did not reply to Yin Xun¡¯s comment and changed the topic.


    Yin Xun sighed, ¡°I¡¯ve been bored out of my mind recently. I accepted an acting job to partner with an idiot. Although there¡¯s not a lot of money to make, it¡¯s still quite interesting. But today is my first time there, so I have no idea how it will turn out.¡±


    After answering Fang Yao¡¯s question, Yin Xun turned the question back on him.


    She followed Fang Yao¡¯s words and asked him in return, ¡°What about you? Do you work at Fangyue Center? There¡¯s a fair distance between that place and here; the journey alone must take quite some time.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s no problem, I only go there occasionally,¡± Fang Yao said conversationally.


    Yin Xun chatted away with Fang Yao as they drove. The journey was rather long and, after a long period of talking, Yin Xun felt that the time was ripe. She said to Fang Yao, ¡°You know, we¡¯re neighbors now, and we meet often. It¡¯s like destiny. How about I treat you to a meal? It¡¯s to repay you for last night¡¯s food.¡±


    ¡°Sure, I¡¯ll owe you one, then. When would you be free to come to my place for a meal?¡± Fang Yao asked, turning to look at Yin Xun as he spoke.


    Upon hearing the suggestion of going to Fang Yao¡¯s house, Yin Xun quickly rejected it.


    She wanted to discuss future collaborations with Fang Yao during the meal. If she were to have the meal at Fang Yao¡¯s house, would she still have to bring the documents over? That would make her intentions too obvious.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go to my house. You can try my cooking. I¡¯ll cook it myself.¡± Yin Xun flashed an innocent smile.


    She knew that Fang Yao was not an ordinary person, and she could not be impatient when trying to approach him. She had to do it step by step. If she left a bad first impression on Fang Yao, no matter how well she schemed in the future, a partnership between them may never come to fruition.


    ¡°Alright,¡± Fang Yao agreed.


    An hour later, the car arrived at Fangyue center.


    Before Fang Yao got out of the car, Yin Xun reminded him enthusiastically, ¡°I¡¯m going to the clubhouse at the front. We¡¯re quite close. If you don¡¯t have a car, call me again and we can go back together.¡±


    Yin Xun was just being courteous to Fang Yao. She knew that, based on Fang Yao¡¯s personality, there was a high chance that he would not call her just to get another ride.


    However, she did not realize that the words ¡®go back together¡¯ had created a ripple in Fang Yao¡¯s originally calm heart.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and replied with a serious expression, ¡°Alright.¡± With that, he got off the car and walked toward Fangyue Center.


    Once Fang Yao was a good distance away, Yin Xun¡¯s face suddenly darkened. No longer was she wearing that warm, passionate look. With one hand on her chin and the other on the steering wheel, she slowly drove to the club.


    Instead of getting out of the car, she remained seated and sent a text message while she estimated the time. She only got out of the car when a security guard came over to give her a reminder. She handed her car keys to the security guard and asked him to park the car in the parking lot.

 Chapter 43 - 43 There’s indeed something fishy going on

    43 There¡¯s indeed something fishy going on


    Looking at the incomparably luxurious clubhouse in front of her, Yin Xun sneered and walked inside.


    Following the text message¡¯s instructions, she arrived at the private room on the fifth floor. She noticed that the fifth floor was exceptionally quiet. There was not even a waiter, which was a little strange.


    Yin Xun made no hurry to knock on the door. She first observed the situation on the fifth floor. Seeing that there was no one in the corridor, she went to the corner of the stairs on the fourth floor. From here, she could watch the situation on the fifth floor without being discovered by the people there.


    Then, she took out her phone and called the kidnapper.


    The kidnapper seemed to have been waiting for the call. He picked up immediately. Before she could speak, he impatiently snarled, ¡°Why aren¡¯t you here yet? Do you not want her to live? Damn it, I¡¯ll give you five more minutes. If you don¡¯t come, I¡¯ll kill her once I¡¯m done with her!¡±


    Yin Xun waited for the kidnapper to finish before she spoke with feigned anxiety, ¡°Mr. Kidnapper, I¡¯m already here, but I¡¯m lost. Can you come out and pick me up?¡±


    After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, the kidnapper did not respond immediately. It was suddenly quiet from the other end of the phone. Yin Xun was in no hurry either. She just stood in the corner and waited quietly.


    As she expected, after a while, the kidnapper said exasperatedly, ¡°I¡¯ve already sent you the address, how are you still lost? The clubhouse is so easy to find. You can just ask the people around you, they all know this place.¡±


    ¡°But there¡¯s no one near me. I¡¯m in a small park, and I really don¡¯t know which direction to go. Big Brother, I¡¯m already here and I didn¡¯t call the police. Please don¡¯t hurt Yin Mo. I¡¯ll give you whatever you want.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was anxious and she sounded like she was crying.


    Yin Xun was moved by her own flawless acting skills. She seemed to be very talented in this. She was now even thinking of investing in a movie and acting in it herself when she had the time.


    As Yin Xun¡¯s anxiety was too convincing, the kidnapper believed her. He asked helplessly, ¡°I know the place you are. What color are you wearing? I¡¯ll go out and pick you up.¡±


    Yin Xun looked down at her black casual clothes and white sports shoes. She replied, ¡°I¡¯m wearing a white dress, white high heels, and my hair is let down. It should be easy to spot me.¡±


    ¡°Okay, then wait for me there. By the way, you didn¡¯t call the police, did you?¡± The kidnapper asked for confirmation once again before hanging up.


    ¡°No, I definitely didn¡¯t call the police!¡± Yin Xun assured him.


    ¡°Good. At least you know what¡¯s good for you. Wait for me to come to you. If you dare to run, you can forget about seeing her again!¡± The kidnapper hung up the phone after one last threat.


    She would not be able to see Yin Mo ever again? That was actually tempting. It would be great if it could really be like that. What a pity. Yin Xun sighed.


    Yin Xun remained alert to the movement on the fifth floor. After a few seconds, the door of the private room opposite her opened, and Yin Xun instantly saw what was inside.


    How was this a kidnapping? At this moment, Yin Mo was leaning on Si Fan¡¯s shoulder leisurely. Opposite Si Fan was Xing Cheng, who was carrying a beautiful woman in his arms.


    A fat man walked out. Before he closed the door, he said to the people inside, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely bring her over.¡±


    This voice was exactly the same as the one on the phone. It was him.


    Before Fatty walked over, Yin Xun quietly went to the washroom on the fourth floor to hide.


    Just as she expected, this was all a scheme to lure her over. As for the specific reason, Yin Xun sneered. With Yin Mo¡¯s brain, she definitely would not be able to cook up such a scheme, so it must be either Si Fan or Xing Cheng.


    Yin Xun only came out of the washroom once she felt that Fatty had already walked a good distance away. As soon as she walked out, she received a text message. She smiled when she read the contents and promptly walked to the fifth floor.


    Yin Xun walked to the door of the room that Fatty had come out from and knocked twice, waiting for someone inside to open the door.


    The person who answered the door was Yin Mo. When she saw Yin Xun standing at the door, she looked a little surprised. ¡°Sister, why are you in this room?¡±


    When they heard that Yin Xun was here, Si Fan and Xing Cheng looked at each other and saw a trace of surprise in each other¡¯s eyes. Why would Yin Xun come to this room?


    ¡°Why? Are you surprised to see me? Didn¡¯t you ask me to come?¡± Yin Xun crossed her arms and smiled at the people in the room.

 Chapter 44 - 44 Yin Mo was kissed

    44 Yin Mo was kissed


    ¡°But, shouldn¡¯t you be going to¡­ Hmm¡­¡±


    Before Yin Mo could finish her sentence, Si Fan bent down and covered her mouth with his. Yin Mo was not expecting Si Fan to suddenly kiss her here. Her eyes instantly widened, and a blush rose on her face. She closed her eyes and savored Si Fan¡¯s kiss.


    Xing Cheng was already used to this and completely ignored it. He invited Yin Xun into the clubhouse. ¡°Since you¡¯re here, come in and have some fun for a while. By the way, do you have any friends following you?¡±


    Yin Xun immediately understood what Xing Cheng meant. She smiled and said, ¡°No, I came alone.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s good. There¡¯s wine here. We¡¯re all friends now. Let¡¯s drink together.¡± After Xing Cheng finished speaking, he made a gentlemanly ushering gesture and invited Yin Xun into the room.


    Yin Xun had no intention of going in. Instead, she crossed her arms and stared directly at the two people kissing.


    The two of them kissed for more than ten seconds before they finally separated. Yin Mo was embarrassed to be seen by Yin Xun like this. She shyly leaned into Si Fan¡¯s arms, her face flushed as if she had a fever. She was too embarrassed to speak anymore.


    On the other hand, Si Fan was hugging Yin Mo¡¯s shoulders intimately, but there was no love in his eyes. He looked at Yin Xun with a gloomy gaze.


    Yin Xun could not be bothered with Xing Cheng and Si Fan. She stared at the embarrassed Yin Mo and asked, ¡°Yin Mo, didn¡¯t you say that you were kidnapped?¡±


    Upon hearing Yin Xun¡¯s question, Yin Mo opened her eyes and looked at Yin Xun as she stuttered, ¡°That, that, Sister, it¡¯s actually like this. We¡­¡±


    At this moment, her face turned even redder. It was impossible to tell if it was because of what had just happened or because she was being questioned by Yin Xun.


    ¡°We were just joking with you. If we had asked you out normally, you definitely wouldn¡¯t have agreed, so we asked Lil Mo to do us a favor. Don¡¯t blame her. I asked her to do this.¡± Seeing that Yin Mo was unable to say a word for a long time, Xing Cheng was afraid that she would reveal the truth out of nervousness, so he quickly answered the question.


    ¡°Xing Cheng.¡± Yin Xun called his name.


    Xing Cheng was not sure why, but he instinctively replied, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°If you asked her to do it, so be it. It seems that she listens to you a lot. I had thought Si Fan was behind it. Since it¡¯s not him, it was you two who have such a good relationship and collaborated to trick me. You care so much about Yin Mo. Do you like her?


    ¡°If you like her, I can help you out. After all, you¡¯re so much more handsome and talented than a certain someone.¡± Although Yin Xun was talking to Xing Cheng, her eyes were looking at Si Fan and she even flashed a provocative smile.


    Si Fan clenched his fists tightly. He knew that Yin Xun was dissatisfied with him, but he did not expect her to say this to his face.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Mo became anxious. She quickly explained, ¡°Sister, I don¡¯t have a thing for Xing Cheng. He¡¯s just a friend of Si Fan and mine. I only love Si Fan.¡±


    After saying that, she quickly went to comfort Si Fan. ¡°Ah Fan, please don¡¯t misunderstand. There¡¯s nothing between Xing Cheng and me.¡±


    Xing Cheng had not expected Yin Xun to say such a thing. He and Si Fan were good brothers. He quickly said, ¡°Ah Xun, you shouldn¡¯t say such things. Si Fan and I are good friends. I wouldn¡¯t touch anything that belongs to him.¡±


    Yin Xun sighed and said, ¡°That¡¯s a pity. I think you and my sister are a good match. After all, you¡¯re the young master of the Xing family. You¡¯re not someone who relied on currying favor with others and used schemes to get to where you are.¡±


    The three people did not expect Yin Xun to have such a vicious mouth. She specially chose words that others did not like to hear. Although she was praising Xing Cheng on the surface, everyone could tell that she was really mocking Si Fan.


    Although Si Fan was displeased, he knew that Yin Xun was telling the truth. He was adopted by the Si Family and relied on pleasing the Si Family and Yin Mo to get to where he was today. Now that Yin Mo was still useful to him, he could not afford to fall out with Yin Xun over this. Otherwise, it would be even harder for him to seize the Yin Family¡¯s assets in the future.


    Si Fan went through all of this in his heart, but his face was calm.


    Yin Xun was saying this in front of Si Fan on purpose because she wanted him to do something to her. However, she had not expected Si Fan to be so tolerant. Even so, it did not matter if Si Fan did not make a move. These were things that she wanted to say anyway. The two of them had already shed all pretense of cordiality. So what if she said these words?


    As the few of them were talking at the door, the fatty who had gone down to find Yin Xun returned. He looked like he was in a bad mood. When he saw Xing Cheng and the others standing at the door, he cursed as he walked, ¡°That woman lied to me. She didn¡¯t come at all. Damn it, I made a wasted trip!¡±


    The fatty¡¯s words were very unpleasant. Yin Xun just stood quietly at the door and looked at him without saying a word.

 Chapter 45 - 45 Yin Xun Gets Backup

    45 Yin Xun Gets Backup


    On the other hand, when Xing Cheng heard the fatty¡¯s unpleasant words, he quickly gave him a look, hinting for him to leave quickly and stay away.


    After all, it had been Fatty who had called to threaten Yin Xun. As long as Fatty was not around, no matter how suspicious Yin Xun was, she would have no evidence.


    Now all he had to do was pretend he did not know Fatty.


    Unfortunately, the fatty did not notice the hint and even asked him, ¡°Young Master Xing, what¡¯s wrong with your eyes?¡±


    !!


    Xing Cheng, ¡°¡­¡±


    A useless teammate was only worth this much.


    The fatty only noticed Yin Xun when he reached the door. He had never seen Yin Xun before, so he had no idea what she looked like. He also saw that Yin Xun was wearing ordinary clothes and did not look like a rich person, though she was very beautiful. Hence, he asked curiously, ¡°Young Master Xing, you found a new girl so quickly¡­¡±


    ¡°Dapeng, this is Yin Xun, the eldest daughter of the Yin family, who is also my friend.¡± Xing Cheng saw that the fatty was getting more and more out of line, so he quickly interrupted to stop him from continuing.


    When the fatty heard that it was Yin Xun, he was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He pointed at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°You¡­ Weren¡¯t you lost?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve come back.¡± Yin Xun did not answer Fatty¡¯s question. Instead, she took out her phone and sent a message. Then, she looked at Fatty and said, ¡°After all, we¡¯re dealing with kidnappers. We have to spy on the enemy first.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Fatty asked with a frown.


    At the same time, he looked at Xing Cheng with a questioning gaze. Xing Cheng had clearly asked him to pretend to be a kidnapper and trick Yin Xun into entering another room so that he could assault Yin Xun. So why did Yin Xun come to this room? At this moment, he could not react to the situation.


    Yin Xun took a few steps back and smiled. ¡°You¡¯ll understand soon.¡±


    As soon as Yin Xun finished speaking, four men ran up from downstairs. Before anyone could react, they knocked Xing Cheng, Fatty, and Si Fan to the ground. From the moment they rushed over to the moment they knocked them down, it only took a few seconds.


    ¡°What are you doing? Robbery in broad daylight?¡± Xing Cheng was not expecting this. Why did someone suddenly come to the club to kidnap him?


    He shouted, ¡°Security! Where¡¯s security?!¡±


    However, no matter how much Xing Cheng shouted, there was no reply. The only response he received was a pair of silver handcuffs.


    Seeing this, Xing Cheng suddenly had a bad feeling. Then, he heard the man pinning him say, ¡°Don¡¯t move. We¡¯re the police. You¡¯re suspected of kidnapping. You¡¯re under arrest now. Behave yourself!¡±


    Xing Cheng was puzzled. ¡°Kidnap? Who did I kidnap? Is it illegal for me to stay in my own clubhouse?¡±


    After saying that, he seemed to have realized something and suddenly looked at Yin Xun. Seeing Yin Xun smile at him, he instantly understood¡ªYin Xun had called the police!


    He quickly explained, ¡°We didn¡¯t kidnap anyone. If you don¡¯t believe me, ask Yin Mo. We were just joking with Yin Xun!¡±


    The police officer who grabbed him was not interested in his nonsense. He said, ¡°If you have anything to say, wait until we¡¯re at the police station.¡± With that, he pressed him to the corner of the stairs and locked the handcuffs on the railing.


    The fatty was also frightened by the scene unfolding in front of him. He did not expect the police to appear. He knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. ¡°Officer, we are law-abiding citizens. I never thought about kidnapping anyone. I was just joking. Please don¡¯t arrest me. I don¡¯t want to have a criminal record. My child won¡¯t be able to take the civil servant examination if that happens!¡±


    The police planned to arrest the suspect the same way they did Xing Cheng. However, the man was too fat, so the officer could only give up and say coldly, ¡°Get up. If you interfere with the police¡¯s law enforcement, your criminal case will be even worse!¡±


    This line was very effective. Upon hearing that they were going to add to his crime, the fatty immediately jumped up and obediently cooperated. He stopped fooling around.


    Xing Cheng and Fatty were not very honest. They made a scene for a while, but Si Fan remained silent the entire time. He just looked at Yin Xun with a dark expression and did not say a word. He just quietly followed the police.


    When Si Fan was also handcuffed by the police, Yin Mo, who was stunned, finally realized that all of this had happened because of her.


    Hence, she rushed to Si Fan¡¯s side and tried to put in a good word for him with the police. ¡°Mr. Policeman, Ah Fan is my boyfriend. He didn¡¯t kidnap me. This is all a misunderstanding!¡±


    However, the police would not let Si Fan go just because of her words. Si Fan kept winking at Yin Mo, but Yin Mo was too anxious and did not notice it at all.


    He had no choice but to whisper to Yin Mo, ¡°It was Yin Xun who called the police. Let her speak.¡±


    ¡°Sister called the police? How is that possible? My sister¡­¡± Yin Mo looked incredulous.


    ¡°Do as I say!¡± This idiot.

 Chapter 46 - 46 Yin Mo’s Blame

    46 Yin Mo¡¯s Blame


    Si Fan knew that Yin Mo wanted to explain to him on Yin Xun¡¯s behalf, but at a time like this, he did not want to listen to Yin Mo¡¯s nonsense. He scolded her sternly and almost said the word idiot out loud.


    ¡°Shut your mouth and come with me!¡± The police heard what Si Fan said to Yin Mo and gave a warning.


    After that, he pulled Si Fan to the corner. Like Xing Cheng, he was also cuffed to the railing.


    Yin Mo ran to Yin Xun and said anxiously, ¡°Sister, how could you call the police? Xing Cheng and Si Fan were just joking with you. They don¡¯t have any ill intentions. Tell the police that all of this is a misunderstanding!¡±


    Yin Xun had long guessed that Yin Mo would come to plead for leniency. After all, this saintly sister could not bear to see anyone other than her family injured.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless for you to tell me this. Whether it¡¯s a real kidnapping or not, you have to tell the police.¡± Yin Xun shrugged helplessly. With that, she did not spend any more time talking to Yin Mo and went to cooperate with the police.


    Because she had sent the given address to the police, they were going to check the other room she had not been inside yet.


    When she walked over and saw the scene in the room, she was stunned on the spot. After being stunned for a few seconds, a nauseating feeling suddenly surged in her stomach, followed by a surge of anger.


    The room was obviously a sex room. There were even chains on the bed. Seeing these things, Yin Xun immediately understood why they used this method to trick her into coming.


    ¡°Miss Yin, it seems like they really have ulterior motives for calling you here.¡± The police officers were taking photos inside the house as they searched for contraband. Yin Xun stood at the door and watched.


    After the inspection, the police walked over and said to Yin Xun, ¡°This is a sex room. In addition to all kinds of sex toys, there are also knockout drugs. Fortunately, you did not enter in a hurry. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.¡±


    If Yin Xun had walked into such a room, it was obvious what the other party had planned.


    ¡°Thank you for today. I am grateful for your hard work. Thank goodness you came in time.¡± Yin Xun knew at first glance. After all, she had read countless books. She had never experienced anything like it, but she knew exactly what it would be like.


    Suppressing the disgust in her heart, Yin Xun thanked the police.


    The police did not expect Yin Xun to be so calm after seeing all this. They could not help but admire her.


    As expected of the eldest daughter of the Yin family. She was a top student overseas and did not panic when she encountered trouble. She would undoubtedly have great achievements in the future.


    Just now, after Yin Mo was rejected by Yin Xun, she went to ask Si Fan for advice. Si Fan was so angry that he almost cursed; he asked her to look for Yin Xun again.


    Just like that, Yin Mo came over to beg Yin Xun once more. ¡°Sister, since you¡¯re the one who called the police, please explain to them that we¡¯re all friends and have no ill intentions. Si Fan is my boyfriend, after all. It would be bad for me if he goes to jail.¡±


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes and thought to herself, ¡®What does it have to do with me if I don¡¯t treat you well? You asked for it.¡¯


    She did not expect that, as the victim, Yin Mo would actually help the kidnappers plead for leniency. Even the police officers at the side could not stand it anymore. ¡°Miss Yin Mo, Miss Yin Xun took a risk to come here to save you. Also, look at this room. It is obvious that these were planned for Miss Yin Xun.¡±


    Yin Mo followed the police officer¡¯s instructions and looked at the room. When she saw the things inside, her face turned red and she lowered her head, not daring to look up again.


    Although she had done all kinds of things when she was with Si Fan, that was between the two of them. Now that there were outsiders present, she was embarrassed to see them.


    Even so, she still pleaded for Si Fan and Xing Cheng. ¡°Isn¡¯t my sister safe and sound? Maybe they just wanted to scare her. We¡¯re all friends here. They definitely wouldn¡¯t really hurt my sister.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, the corners of the policeman¡¯s mouth twitched. He asked, ¡°Your sister is fine today because she¡¯s smart enough to investigate the situation first. What if she didn¡¯t investigate and went straight into that room and got killed?¡±


    Yin Mo clasped her hands together and continued to lower her head. ¡°But none of that happened. Now that they¡¯ve learned their lesson and nothing happened, please let them go.¡±


    The police officer was speechless. He did not know what to say, so he turned to look at Yin Xun and asked softly, ¡°Miss Yin Xun, is she your biological sister?¡±


    Yin Xun replied, ¡°Yes.¡±

 Chapter 47 - 47 The Culprit Is Si Fan

    47 The Culprit Is Si Fan


    The police officer took a deep breath and decided not to continue arguing with Yin Mo. He only complained about it in his heart. How could Yin Xun have such an ungrateful sister?


    ¡°Miss Yin Xun, Miss Yin Mo, both of you need to follow us back to make a statement,¡± the police officer said as he looked at Yin Xun.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Yin Xun agreed. Then, she suddenly thought of something. ¡°Wait a moment. My mother is still waiting for news. I¡¯ll tell her now to not worry.¡±


    When Yin Mo heard Yin Xun say that she was going to make a call, she remembered that she had forgotten to tell Wu Li that she was not going back. ¡°Ah, I forgot to tell Mom last night that I¡¯m not going back! I have to make a call too.¡±


    !!


    At this moment, Yin Xun had already hung up the phone. When she heard Yin Mo¡¯s words, she immediately rolled her eyes and said impatiently, ¡°I¡¯ve already told Mom. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Yin Mo had just pressed a number when she was dragged out by Yin Xun.


    There were no guests in the clubhouse. The police must have been afraid that there would be dangerous criminals, so they had cleared the rest of the people out.


    However, the nature of humans was to watch when there was a show. Although they knew that there might be danger, there was still a large crowd at the entrance of the clubhouse. Even reporters had come.


    When the police escorted Si Fan and the other two to the police car, they heard clicking sounds all around them. Si Fan and Xing Cheng had never received such attention before. Their faces darkened with anger.


    Seeing him come out, the people around him began to discuss.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t the police say that there were criminals? Where are the criminals? Could it be these few people?¡± A middle-aged man stood in front with a child in his arms. He even chatted with the people beside him.


    ¡°Hey, don¡¯t talk nonsense. The criminals are the ones being led away by the police. Look at how polite the police are to the two young ladies; they must be the victims.¡±


    When the man heard this, his temper instantly exploded. He had a daughter too, so he hated it when people bullied little girls. He scolded angrily, ¡°These people are too shameless. They bullied two little girls. The police must teach them a lesson!¡±


    When the people beside him heard the man¡¯s scolding, they echoed, ¡°That¡¯s right. How can you be proud of bullying a little girl? Pick on someone your own size.¡±


    ¡°Hey, why do I feel that those people look a little familiar? Look, is that Young Master Xing Cheng? The other seems to be Si Fan if I¡¯m not mistaken. I¡¯m not seeing things, right?¡±


    ¡°You seem to be right. Aren¡¯t they rich big bosses? How did they become criminals? Were they trying to pursue excitement? Rich people really know how to play.¡±


    Amidst the discussion, the police, Yin Xun, and the others got into the police car.


    Inside the police car, Yin Mo was still pleading with Yin Xun.


    Yin Mo chattered into Yin Xun¡¯s ear like a little bird, making her head hurt. In the end, she could not take it anymore. She took out her earphones and turned up the music. The world finally quietened down a little.


    When they arrived at the police station, the police interrogated them separately. Yin Mo and Yin Xun were the first to finish.


    ¡°Miss Yin Xun, the interrogation of the three suspects will take some time. When the results are out, we will inform you.¡± The police officer in charge of interrogating Yin Xun sent Yin Xun and Yin Mo to the entrance of the police station.


    ¡°Alright, thank you.¡± Yin Xun nodded in agreement and left with Yin Mo.


    ¡°Lil Mo, what¡¯s the name of the fatty with Si Fan?¡± Yin Xun asked casually.


    She remembered that in the original text, Si Fan had delivered a woman to Xing Cheng through a fatty. However, she did not know if these two were the same person.


    Yin Mo did not find anything weird with Yin Xun¡¯s sudden question at all. When she heard her question, she answered directly, ¡°I think his name is Jiang Chao. He¡¯s Xing Cheng¡¯s bodyguard.¡±


    Fatty, Jiang Chao, it was really him!


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression darkened. This fatty was already married and had a child, but he still did such a horrible thing. It was really disgusting.


    In her anger, Yin Xun quickened her pace. Yin Mo had to jog to keep up with her.


    ¡°Take a taxi home first. I still have something to do. I don¡¯t know when I¡¯ll be done,¡± Yin Xun said to Yin Mo.


    She had something very important to do now. If Yin Mo, the Saint, followed her, it would definitely be a bad thing. Especially since Si Fan could not be allowed to find out what she wanted to do. If Yin Mo went with her, Si Fan would learn about it.


    Yin Mo whispered, ¡°But I¡¯m worried about you being alone outside. It¡¯s already late, and the sky is about to turn dark.¡±

 Chapter 48 - 48 Yin Xun Saving Someone

    48 Yin Xun Saving Someone


    ¡°If you follow me, I¡¯ll be in more danger. You should go home first. Mother is furious now. You should go back and coax her.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she ignored Yin Mo and walked forward quickly.


    Every time she saw Yin Mo, she was infuriated. If she did not keep her distance, she might not be able to control herself and beat Yin Mo up.


    After walking for a while, Yin Xun turned around and did not see Yin Mo. She then took out her phone and called Mary. ¡°Mary, help me investigate someone¡­¡±


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun walked toward the clubhouse. When she was about to reach the place, she heard someone shouting not far away. She instinctively followed the sound and looked over. There were many people surrounding an intersection on the left. Everyone seemed to be watching the commotion.


    What happened in front? Yin Xun was curious and went over.


    Using her thin frame, Yin Xun squeezed her way to the front to take a look.


    A middle-aged man wearing a black hat was dragging a girl away. The girl was dressed luxuriously, and it was obvious that she was rich. As for the man, his clothes were a little tattered, and his skin was rough. It was clear that his standard of living was not good.


    The man with the hat tugged at the girl, but she kept struggling. At the same time, she shouted, ¡°Help call the police! I don¡¯t know this man!¡±


    When the man heard the girl shout, he quickly apologized to the surrounding crowd. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. My daughter is mentally ill. She runs around every day and doesn¡¯t even recognize her family.¡±


    After saying that, he said to the girl, ¡°Huihui, be good. Daddy will bring you to the hospital. Although our family is poor, Daddy will definitely treat your illness.¡±


    So it was a family matter. At first, the onlookers thought that the girl was really in trouble, but when they heard the man¡¯s words, they immediately lost the thought of calling the police.


    Someone even advised her, ¡°Young lady, look at how well your father treats you. It¡¯s not easy for him either. Just listen to him and go back with him.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right, young lady. Your father is doing this for your own good.¡±


    The surrounding people started to persuade her, but no one believed her.


    The girl used all her strength to resist. As she started to cry, she screamed for help. ¡°He¡¯s not my father. I don¡¯t know him. Please save me, save me!¡±


    She was too weak to break free from the man¡¯s grip. Seeing that the people around her were ignoring her pleas for help, she eventually gave up. Her face was ashen as she let the man pull her away.


    The girl seemed to have foreseen the consequences.


    ¡°Wait a minute!¡±


    Just as the man in the hat was about to drag the girl to the car, he heard a shout from the crowd. Then, he saw a girl, who looked about the same age as the girl with him, running toward him.


    Yin Xun ran to the man and said excitedly, ¡°Dad, I finally found you! Seriously, why didn¡¯t you wait for me?¡±


    The man in the hat was stunned by Yin Xun¡¯s actions and did not react for a moment. He wondered when exactly he had a daughter.


    The surrounding crowd only thought that the hat man had one daughter. They did not expect that he would let himself be dressed in rags so he could raise his daughter so beautifully. Their impression of the hat man improved further.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Dad? Why aren¡¯t you saying anything? You¡¯re as silly as my sister.¡± Yin Xun patted the man, signaling him to come back to his senses.


    The man in the hat never thought that there would be a girl who would take the initiative to come to his doorstep. He was overjoyed and played along. ¡°Daddy was too anxious. He was afraid that your sister would run away. Since you¡¯re here, let¡¯s go home.¡±


    ¡°Wait for me.¡± Yin Xun turned sideways and dodged the hat man¡¯s outstretched hand.


    She ran to the muscular man who was taking photos with his phone and snatched his phone from him. Then, she turned around and snatched the phone from a bespectacled man. Without hesitation, she threw the phones to the ground and they shattered.


    The situation was too sudden. Before the people around them could react, their phones were already in pieces.


    Yin Xun pointed at the man in the hat and said to the two of them, ¡°I don¡¯t have money. Go and get compensation from my father!¡±


    Seeing that something was wrong, the man in the hat wanted to drag the first girl into the car and flee, but the girl was smart. When she saw Yin Xun¡¯s actions, she immediately realized that she was saving her.


    With newfound hope, she was so strong that she did not look like a little girl at all.


    The girl struggled with all her might not to be dragged into the car by the man in the hat.

 Chapter 49 - 49 We Meet Again

    49 We Meet Again


    Right on time, the muscular man and the bespectacled man rushed toward the hat man and grabbed him to make him compensate for his phone.


    ¡°My phone is new. It cost me more than 10,000 yuan. You have to compensate me!¡± The muscular man had pitied the man in the hat just now, but when he saw that his phone had been smashed by Yin Xun, the sympathy instantly disappeared.


    The bespectacled man also urged him, ¡°My phone isn¡¯t expensive. It¡¯s only about 5,000 yuan. Hurry up and buy me a new one. I still have work to do. If it gets delayed because of this, you won¡¯t be able to afford it!¡±


    The man in the hat did not expect Yin Xun to do this. He quickly cut ties with her. ¡°I don¡¯t know her. If she dropped your phones, go look for her. It has nothing to do with me!¡±


    When the muscular man heard his words, he grabbed his collar and said, ¡°You¡¯re saying you don¡¯t know her? Do you think I¡¯m stupid? You did not deny it when she called you her father just now and you even asked her to go home with you. If you¡¯re not her father, who is?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. As a father, you looked like you were doting on your child just now. Why do you not care about her now?¡± The bespectacled man echoed from the side. Then, he turned to the crowd and asked, ¡°Everyone saw it just now, right? This girl called him Dad. Not only did he take it in his stride, but he also wanted to bring her home. He can¡¯t just get away with this, right?¡±


    Someone in the crowd shouted, ¡°What kind of person is this? His own child broke someone else¡¯s things. In order not to compensate, he won¡¯t even acknowledge his child!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. What kind of father is this?¡±


    Everyone pointed their fingers at the hat man again.


    Seeing that things were going out of control, the man in the hat immediately lost the desire to continue capturing the girl. He let go of the girl and tried to rush back to the car.


    However, the muscular man was too strong. The hat man tried a few times but could not break free. He could only beg for mercy. ¡°Little brother, I¡¯m really not her father. She got the wrong person. Go find her. This really has nothing to do with me.¡±


    After seeing that the man in the hat had let go of the girl, Yin Xun did not immediately go forward to help her up. Instead, she maintained a certain distance from them and said, ¡°In that case, let¡¯s call the police to deal with it. When the police are around, he won¡¯t dare to not pay you.¡±


    After saying that, she mouthed to the girl, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, the police will be here soon.¡±


    Yin Xun did not go forward because he was afraid that the man had accomplices. After all, people could do anything if they were forced into a corner, especially people like them who dabbled in illegal trade.


    She could help others in passing, but she would take risks with her life. Everything had to be done under the premise of ensuring her own safety first.


    The girl gave her a grateful smile and walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side.


    As she had just gone through a great scare, her body was still trembling slightly.


    Yin Xun wanted to move away from the girl, but seeing her pitiful appearance, she could not bear it, so she reached out and held the girl¡¯s hand.


    Yin Xun¡¯s hand was dry and warm. The girl¡¯s body slowly relaxed under her grip.


    When the man in the hat heard that they were going to call the police, he panicked and quickly said, ¡°I¡¯ll compensate you, I¡¯ll compensate you. Can I give you money?¡±


    ¡°Sure, then show it to me. You can transfer it or pay in cash. I¡¯ll release you immediately after paying.¡± The muscular man stared at the man in the hat and waited for him to take the money.


    However, the man in the hat did not have that much money. After searching for a long time, he finally took out a few notes and handed them to the muscular man. ¡°I-I didn¡¯t bring much money with me when I went out. Can I owe you for now? I¡¯ll definitely return them to you in the future.¡±


    ¡°Are you f*cking kidding me!¡± The muscular man slapped the man in the hat and snarled, ¡°If you don¡¯t have money, just say it. We¡¯ll call the police. Damn it, we¡¯re wasting time.¡±


    As they were talking, they heard the sound of police sirens. Soon, a police car arrived in front of them.


    The muscular man was stunned. He did not expect the police to arrive so quickly. Which kind soul had called the police for him?


    As the siren sounded, the man in the hat suddenly seemed to have gone crazy. He struggled with all his might, wanting to break free from the muscular man¡¯s restraint and escape. However, no matter how hard he tried, the muscular man¡¯s grip on his hand was like an iron vice, not moving at all.


    The police moved in swiftly. They pushed through the crowd and walked over. Before they could ask questions, the muscular man pointed at the man in the hat and said to the police, ¡°Officer, this person damaged someone else¡¯s property and smashed our phones. However, he won¡¯t compensate. We¡¯ll leave him to you to deal with.¡±


    At the same time, the girl immediately rushed up the moment she saw the police. She pointed at the man in the hat and said to the police, ¡°Officer, that man is a human trafficker. He tried to kidnap me just now. You must arrest him. Otherwise, who knows how many more girls will fall victim to him in the future!¡±


    When the muscular man heard what the girl said to the police, he said in disbelief, ¡°Is he really not your father?¡±

 Chapter 50 - 50 Wang Ran

    50 Wang Ran


    The girl felt a lump in her throat and her tears fell again. She said between sobs, ¡°No, no. How many times have I told you that I don¡¯t know him, but you didn¡¯t believe me? I was almost kidnapped by him!¡±


    The girl was frightened. She held Yin Xun¡¯s hand and kept crying. She did not let go even when they reached the police station, like a drowning person grabbing onto a life-saving straw.


    Yin Xun wanted to pull her hand away, but the girl refused to let go. She kept her head lowered and sobbed.


    Yin Xun knew that anyone who experienced such a thing would naturally be afraid. Seeing her pitiful look, Yin Xun could only follow the girl¡¯s lead and let her grab her hand.


    Yin Xun and the muscular man cooperated with the police during the interrogation. After the questioning was over, Yin Xun was praised by the police for her bravery and resourcefulness.


    This was the first time Yin Xun had been praised by the police. She was actually a little embarrassed.


    Then, she took advantage of her good image with the police and asked for the officer¡¯s private number. She found out that the police officer¡¯s name was Zuo Liang.


    ¡°Miss Qu Lin, it¡¯s time for me to leave. You should let go of me.¡± Yin Xun remembered that the police officer had called the crying girl by her name.


    After being reminded by Yin Xun, Qu Lin reacted and quickly let go of Yin Xun¡¯s arm. She said embarrassedly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m a timid person. I haven¡¯t recovered from what just happened.¡±


    ¡°By the way, your name is Yin Xun, right? Thank you for saving me. Please leave me your contact number. If anything comes up in the future, you can look for me. I¡¯ll protect you.¡±


    Qu Lin took out her phone and waited to exchange numbers with Yin Xun.


    ¡°Sure.¡± Yin Xun agreed readily.


    Although she had never seen Qu Lin in the original text, since she had appeared before her, there must be a reason for it. Moreover, looking at how lavishly Qu Lin was dressed, it was obvious that she was wealthy. Perhaps she would be useful in the future.


    As the saying went, having more friends opened more paths.


    After Yin Xun bade goodbye to Qu Lin, she did not walk to the clubhouse. Instead, she chose to take a taxi.


    While Yin Xun was in the car, Mary sent her the thing she wanted¡ªan address.


    Yin Xun took a taxi to the clubhouse and then drove to a remote town outside the city according to the address.


    An hour and a half later, Yin Xun arrived at an old residential area and got out of the car by the fifth building. Looking at this old and dirty house, the word ¡®slum¡¯ immediately popped into her mind.


    The building was small and cramped. Just parking her car at the side had caused most of the road to be blocked. Fortunately, there were not many people outside.


    Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Yin Xun decided to end the battle quickly and return home as soon as possible.


    She walked into the building, and a pungent stench greeted her. Yin Xun covered his nose and went to the fourth floor.


    She tried her best to control her breathing. Surrounded by all kinds of curses from the men and women around her, the cries of children, and the sound of things being thrown, she knocked on the security door in front of her.


    The door was quickly opened and a skinny woman walked out.


    ¡°Who are you looking for?¡± The woman was listless and spoke weakly.


    ¡°Hello, are you Wang Ran?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    The woman¡¯s expression was normal just now, but when she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, her eyes were instantly filled with vigilance. She stared at her intently. ¡°Why are you looking for her?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Miss Wang, don¡¯t be afraid. I¡¯m not here to hurt you. I¡¯m here to help you¡­¡±


    ¡°No, no, I¡¯m not Wang Ran. You¡¯ve found the wrong person!¡± The woman seemed to be very afraid of Yin Xun. Before she could finish speaking, she turned around and was about to close the door.


    However, she underestimated Yin Xun¡¯s reaction speed. Yin Xun stretched out a leg to block the door. At the same time, she used her hand to support the door and quickly said, ¡°Miss Wang, I know that Xing Cheng hurt you. Although you hate him, because you¡¯re just an ordinary person, you can¡¯t ask for help. You¡¯ve always been suppressed by Xing Cheng. I¡¯m here to help you deal with him. I have money!¡±


    Yin Xun said these words in one breath, making her gasp for air.


    As expected, after she said this, the woman stopped slamming the door and asked her softly, ¡°Are you really here to help me?¡±


    This time, she did not deny that she was Wang Ran.


    ¡°Can I come in and talk to you?¡± Yin Xun asked when she saw that the woman had calmed down.


    Wang Ran fell silent. Yin Xun did not rush her. She just wanted to prevent her from suddenly closing the door again.


    After hesitating for a while, Wang Ran nodded in agreement.


    ¡°Come in.¡±

 Chapter 51 - 51 Close The Deal

    51 Close The Deal


    Yin Xun followed Wang Ran into the house. The house was messy and dirty, not much different from the outside.


    She could not tell how long it had been since Wang Ran had thrown out the trash. There were all kinds of odors in the room, and it was even worse than outside.


    However, Yin Xun did not despise Wang Ran because of this. Everyone had their own way of living. She had no right to mock others. All she could do was show them their due respect.


    ¡°Miss Wang, I¡¯ll get straight to the point.¡±


    ¡°I know about the grudge between you and Xing Cheng. I came here today to ask if you¡¯re willing to testify against Xing Cheng. Before I came here, I¡¯ve already done some investigations. Back then, you were violated by Xing Cheng and tried to call the police. However, Xing Cheng was rich and powerful. Not only did you fail, but you were also forced here by them.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ve lived with your grandmother since you were a child. They used your grandmother to threaten you and forbade you to do anything rash. You had to keep this all under wraps to protect your grandmother. If I said that I can help you, would you need it?¡±


    Wang Ran looked at Yin Xun in disbelief. After a while, she said, ¡°How do you know so much? Who are you? Why are you helping me?¡±


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter who I am. What¡¯s important is that Xing Cheng is our common enemy. I¡¯ll give you a chance to take revenge. You can identify the crimes he committed and let him receive the punishment he deserves. As for me, I¡¯ll just have one less person who wants to harm me. How does the deal sound?¡±


    ¡°Of course, it¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t want revenge. I won¡¯t force you. I¡¯m just here to ask for your opinion. If you want, you can leave the matter of your safety to me in the future. You don¡¯t have to be afraid of anything.¡±


    ¡°I know that your grandmother just passed away a while ago. You¡¯re all alone now. Since you have nothing to worry about now, I can give you a large sum of money if things work out. Then, I can send you overseas and guarantee that you won¡¯t have to worry for the rest of your life.¡±


    Humans were creatures that sought benefits. They would instinctively choose the method that was most beneficial for themselves. Although Yin Xun said that she would not force her, she could use these benefits to tempt Wang Ran.


    Wang Ran looked at Yin Xun with a hint of suspicion in her eyes. ¡°So you¡¯re not here to help me, but yourself?¡±


    ¡°You can say that, so I¡¯m just asking if you¡¯re willing.¡± As Yin Xun spoke, she suddenly received a message on her phone. She picked it up and saw that it was from Mary.


    [The Liu father and son want to invite you for a meal and discuss the collaboration price.]


    Yin Xun was replying to Mary¡¯s message when Wang Ran said, ¡°I can call the police, but you must realize that I¡¯m a girl. How many people will roll their eyes at me if I call the police and publicize such a thing? Look, since you¡¯re so rich and this matter is so beneficial to you, why don¡¯t we discuss the terms?¡±


    Yin Xun was only halfway through writing the text message. When she heard Wang Ran¡¯s words, she immediately put down her phone and looked at her. ¡°Okay, what conditions do you want to discuss?¡±


    Wang Ran¡¯s eyes moved quickly. She thought for a moment and said, ¡°I think you¡¯re involved in business. Business folk like you are most afraid of enemies with status. If you can use me to get rid of one such person, you¡¯ll surely benefit a lot. How about this? How about you give me a share?¡±


    Hearing Wang Ran¡¯s request, Yin Xun was instantly speechless.


    Before she came here, she had considered countless possibilities, such as Wang Ran not daring to cooperate, or asking her to give her more money¡­


    The only thing she did not expect was that Wang Ran would actually ask for her shares. She did not have her own company or shares, but even if she did, she would not give them away so casually.


    In the original book, Wang Ran only appeared for a short while. The author did not elaborate on her character. Yin Xun had already said that she would give her a large sum of money and send her overseas, but Wang Ran actually thought that it was too little!


    ¡°Miss Wang, if that¡¯s what you think, it seems that we can¡¯t help each other. Sorry to disturb you.¡± Yin Xun stood up and made to leave.


    ¡°Wait!¡± Seeing that Yin Xun was really about to leave, Wang Ran quickly stopped her.


    Yin Xun turned around and looked at her. Wang Ran smiled and said, ¡°Well, if you won¡¯t agree, just say it. I don¡¯t think you really need money, so I wanted more. Since you don¡¯t want to give me a share, can you just give me more money?¡±


    ¡°Miss Wang, I¡¯m not here to discuss business with you.¡± Yin Xun turned around. She did not want to stay here any longer. The place was too smelly.


    ¡°Okay, okay, okay. I agree! I¡¯ll listen to you!¡± Wang Ran was afraid that if Yin Xun really left, she would have to stay in this lousy place for the rest of her life.


    In any case, she would not lose out. She could get revenge and earn money, so why not go for it?


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll get my lawyer to look for you tomorrow. He¡¯ll take full responsibility for this matter. You just have to listen to him.¡±

 Chapter 52 - 52 Who Are You?

    52 Who Are You?


    After Yin Xun came out of Wang Ran¡¯s house, she covered her nose and ran off. It was not until she left the residential unit that she dared to breathe deeply.


    There were about a dozen old buildings in this area. They were rather old and looked like they would collapse soon. The walls were basically peeling off.


    Yin Xun observed her surroundings. Not far from the old building was a new building that was under construction. It looked like it was very big.


    She thought for a moment, then got into the car and circled the area.


    She found that there were several buildings under construction nearby. It seemed that many residents would come in the future. However, there were no shopping malls nearby, not even under construction.


    Yin Xun looked at the old residential area again and realized that it was just the right place to build a shopping mall. If construction were to start now, the shopping mall would be completed when the buildings opposite were completed and people moved in. It would be right on time to be used.


    Yin Xun planned to tell Yin Cheng about this when she returned. He was best when it came to this.


    When Yin Xun arrived home, the sky was already completely dark. She had been busy the entire day and had not even eaten lunch or dinner. At this moment, she was starving.


    Just as she was worrying about what to eat, the doorbell suddenly rang.


    Yin Xun saw from the display screen that it was Fang Yao¡¯s butler.


    She quickly went downstairs to open the door. ¡°Uncle Butler, why are you here?¡±


    ¡°I was just preparing dinner when I heard the sound of a car outside. I guessed that you were back. Have you eaten?¡± the butler asked with a smile.


    ¡°I haven¡¯t eaten yet. I was just about to prepare my meal,¡± Yin Xun replied truthfully.


    When the butler heard that Yin Xun had not eaten or prepared anything yet, he was even happier. He smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s good. I¡¯ve prepared a lot tonight. Come over to our house to eat.¡±


    ¡°Right now? That¡¯s no good. I ate your food last time and haven¡¯t prepared a gift in return. I won¡¯t go over this time. But thank you for your kindness, Uncle. I¡¯ll invite you to our house to eat next time.¡±


    Yin Xun had always been very principled about such things. The first time, she had accepted the offer without reservation because it was normal for neighbors to occasionally share things. However, this was based on the assumption that she returned the favor. Only with reciprocation would their relationship become better and better. If she kept asking for things, she would only end up being hated by everyone.


    Besides, Yin Xun had something to ask of Fang Yao. She could not wait to curry favor with him, so she did not dare to leave a bad impression.


    The butler saw that Yin Xun would not budge, and he sighed before he continued to persuade her. ¡°Miss Yin, actually, it was our Young Master who invited you over. He said that he wanted to repay you for the free ride today.¡±


    When Yin Xun heard that, she immediately agreed. ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go, then.¡±


    Yin Xun followed the butler to the next room. When she entered, she realized that there was only a dining table laden with food in the living room. Fang Yao was not there.


    ¡°Where¡¯s Fang Yao?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    The butler sighed and said, ¡°There¡¯s something going on with the Young Miss. Young Master just received the news and went to see her. He left a few minutes before you came back. But don¡¯t worry, Young Master really asked me to invite you to dinner. You¡¯re the only one at home anyway. It would be troublesome for you to cook after a busy day. Why don¡¯t you come to our house to eat? It¡¯s just an extra set of knives and forks.¡±


    Yin Xun was a little disappointed. She had wanted to find out what Fang Yao thought about the future of the Internet while they were having dinner together. She did not expect him to not be around.


    ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master specially requested that you eat whatever you want. Please don¡¯t stand on ceremony.¡± The butler saw that Yin Xun was standing at the dining table and not moving. He invited her to sit down.


    Then, he went to the next room and took out a box of desserts. He handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°This is the dessert you ate last time. Young Master saw that you liked it and specifically got someone to bring them.¡±


    Yin Xun had thought that she only gave Fang Yao a ride on the way, but he had given her so many things in return. As expected, he valued the word ¡°interaction¡± greatly.


    It seemed that if she wanted to curry favor with him, she had to return the favor first and then give him a gift to make him feel that he owed her. Only then would be easier to negotiate a collaboration.


    Yin Xun was thinking of a way to conquer Fang Yao while she ate. The butler was smiling at her from the side.


    The gaze seemed to have already treated Yin Xun as the future Young Madam. Unfortunately, Yin Xun was too busy thinking of a strategy to notice.


    Halfway through the meal, an uninvited guest suddenly appeared in the villa.


    ¡°Yao! Ah¡­ Why are you here?¡±


    Hearing the voice, Yin Xun turned around and saw Qu Lu standing at the door. She was staring at her warily.


    Yin Xun was still hungry and could not be bothered with her. She asked leisurely, ¡°Who are you?¡±

 Chapter 53 - 53 The Future Young Madam

    53 The Future Young Madam


    ¡°I¡¯m¡ª¡±


    ¡°Oh, future Young Madam, this is Young Master¡¯s cousin, the daughter of Young Master¡¯s aunt.¡± The butler interrupted Qu Lu and explained to Yin Xun. He even emphasized the word Young Madam.


    Cousin? Yin Xun sized Qu Lu up. So this girl was related to Fang Yao.


    Yin Xun remembered that when she first met Qu Lu, she had clearly fancied Fang Yao.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. If she was not wrong, Qu Lu must be an adopted child. Otherwise, how would she dare to like her cousin so openly?


    After the butler finished explaining to Yin Xun, he turned to Qu Lu and said, ¡°Young Miss, you¡¯re here to look for Young Master and visit Second Miss, right? Young Master has already gone over, so you can just head over yourself.¡±


    ¡°When did he leave?¡± Qu Lu asked the butler, but her eyes were fixed on Yin Xun.


    The butler replied, ¡°He¡¯s been gone for less than ten minutes. If you chase him now, you should be able to catch up if you make haste.¡±


    Qu Lu did not say anything else. Instead, she glanced at the butler before walking over to Yin Xun¡¯s side and sitting down. She put on a friendly smile and asked, ¡°I left so suddenly last time that I didn¡¯t have time to ask for your name. My name is Qu Lu. I grew up with Yao. What¡¯s your name?¡±


    Yin Xun knew that this person was here to find out more about her.


    Yin Xun elegantly put a piece of steak into her mouth and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the problem?¡±


    Qu Lu did not expect Yin Xun to be so disrespectful to her. She smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just feel that we hit it off very well and I want to be friends. Moreover, Yao and I have always been very close. Since you¡¯re his girlfriend, I naturally have to take care of you when you come over again in the future.¡±


    After speaking, Qu Lu raised her head and said to the butler, ¡°Bring me a set of cutlery.¡±


    ¡°Miss Qu, Young Master specially prepared this dinner for the future Young Madam. There¡¯s only one serving, so I¡¯m afraid that I can¡¯t serve you,¡± the butler said calmly.


    Just as the butler finished speaking, Qu Lu¡¯s phone suddenly rang.


    She took out her phone and looked up at Yin Xun when she saw the caller ID. Then, she smiled smugly and picked up the call.


    ¡°Auntie, I haven¡¯t gone over yet. I¡¯m at Yao¡¯s place now.¡±


    ¡°Yes, yes. I know that he¡¯s already gone over. I¡¯m here to look for him. But I saw someone you definitely wouldn¡¯t expect.¡± Qu Lu¡¯s tone was a little downcast, as if she had suffered some grievance.


    Yin Xun could not hear the voice on the phone. She could only hear Qu Lu¡¯s words.


    Qu Lu was smiling before she picked up the call. When she picked up the call, she immediately looked as if she had been wronged. Yin Xun did not even have to think to know that this fellow was having some bad ideas.


    As expected, Qu Lu continued, ¡°Auntie, did you know that Yao has a girlfriend? His girlfriend is having dinner at his place. I was thinking that since Yao already went to visit my sister and she¡¯s doing fine, I¡¯ll stay behind to take care of his girlfriend.¡±


    Qu Lu continued to talk to the other party for a while longer. No one knew what was said on the other end of the line, but Qu Lu suddenly smiled and hung up.


    ¡°Yao actually didn¡¯t tell his parents about you. The people around him don¡¯t know about you either. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve already told Auntie just now. She said she¡¯ll come and see you tomorrow.¡±


    Qu Lu looked very pleased with herself. She had picked up the call in front of Yin Xun on purpose, waiting for Yin Xun to question her.


    However, Yin Xun did not even look at her. She was still focused on eating.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, did you make this yourself? It¡¯s so delicious. I think that, with your culinary skills, you can open your own restaurant.¡± Yin Xun praised him.


    The butler was a little embarrassed by the praise. He chuckled and said, ¡°All that matters is that you enjoy it. As long as you like it, just let me know when you want to eat my cooking. I¡¯ll make it for you.¡±


    Qu Lu sat there, waiting for them to take the initiative to talk to her. However, Yin Xun and the butler ignored her. They were chatting and laughing like a family, not even looking at her.


    She could not help but remind Yin Xun, ¡°Yao¡¯s mother will come to see you tomorrow.¡±


    Yin Xun finally reacted. She raised her eyes and swept a glance at Qu Lu. ¡°I understand.¡±


    After saying that, she did not continue.


    Yin Xun did not start currying favor with her as Qu Lu thought she would. Qu Lu felt that Yin Xun was either stupid or crazy. Her boyfriend¡¯s mother wanted to visit her, but she did not even ask about it. She did not seem afraid of leaving a bad impression. Qu Lu felt tired of this and turned to leave angrily.


    Seeing that she was finally leaving, the butler walked out to send her off perfunctorily. He said politely, ¡°Take care, Miss Qu. Be careful when it¡¯s dark.¡±


    After Qu Lu left the courtyard, the butler immediately ordered someone to close the door. He was afraid that Qu Lu would return the way she came.

 Chapter 54 - 54 Exterminate The Weeds

    54 Exterminate The Weeds


    Yin Xun was also full and knew that Fang Yao would not be back for a while. She had work to do tomorrow and could not wait for him, so while the servants were collecting the cutlery, she asked the butler about Fang Yao¡¯s preferences.


    In the end, the reply she got was that Fang Yao did not have any particular preferences or hobbies.


    After getting the answer, Yin Xun bid farewell to the butler and walked toward her house.


    Originally, she wanted to find out what Fang Yao liked. Then, when Fang Yao was free to be treated to a meal and she could make him happy, she would naturally talk about the collaboration.


    However, she was not expecting Fang Yao to not have any preferences. That made things difficult for her.


    Yin Xun was walking home slowly when a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, followed by thunder. Yin Xun looked up at the sky. At this moment, the sky was covered in dark clouds. There was not a star to be seen.


    There was a damp smell in the air. It seemed like there would be heavy rain tonight. Listening to the thunder, Yin Xun suddenly remembered that this was how the weather was before she transmigrated. She wondered how her original world was doing.


    If she guessed correctly, her soul must have entered this book. What would happen to her original body without a soul? Would she be treated as a dead person and be casually cremated or buried?


    If she needed to leave this world one day, what would she do?


    Yin Xun raised her hand and patted her cheek to comfort herself. Since she was here, she should take things as they came. She should think about the future later. Whatever happened, she would just cross the bridge when the time came.


    Yin Xun had a good night¡¯s sleep after returning home. The next morning, she rushed to Donggang Modern City.


    She arrived before it was time for work. It was not because she was being proactive, but mainly because she did not know what dirty tricks Si Fan would play. After all, she and Si Fan had already fought twice. Si Fan was the male lead of the original novel and had the aura of the male lead. She did not dare to relax.


    The matter of the materials had not been settled yet, so Donggang was still in the stage of construction closure. Yin Xun had to meet Liu Yi in the afternoon to continue discussing cooperation terms, so she had to settle the matter of Donggang in the morning.


    Because the work was on hold, there were only a few managers here.


    Yin Xun found the quality inspector and called him alone to an office for questioning.


    ¡°What did you think of the matter I discussed with you last time?¡± Yin Xun asked in a low voice.


    ¡°I went back and thought about it for a long time. Although this matter is more dangerous, didn¡¯t you say that you would protect me? I chose to believe you.¡± The quality inspector continued, ¡°I¡¯ve already prepared all the information. As long as I report it, none of them will be able to escape.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded in satisfaction and said, ¡°Then I¡¯ll leave this matter to you.¡±


    Ever since Yin Xun checked on the problem the first time, she had been paying attention to everything in Donggang City, be it the materials, the movement of people, or the finances. The more she observed, the more problems she discovered.


    She realized that half of Donggang City¡¯s management were Si Fan¡¯s men. To be precise, they were bribed by Si Fan¡¯s subordinates. Si Fan did not personally take action, but let his assistants do the dirty work. He was probably afraid of attracting trouble.


    The problem with the materials this time was all caused by the people Si Fan had bribed. Originally, these people had done very well and basically did not leave any evidence behind. However, they had forgotten one person, and that was the quality inspector that they had always looked down on and ostracized. They felt that the quality inspector could not say anything and was just an ordinary employee, so there was nothing to be afraid of.


    However, they did not expect that the quality inspector would secretly leave evidence behind. In the end, Yin Xun even valued him. The quality inspector took the evidence and reported it, and the administration quickly sent people to investigate.


    Yin Xun and the quality inspector cooperated with the people from the administration to investigate and question them. They found out who was in charge of taking bribes and deliberately using inferior materials in this matter.


    At this moment, those people were still enjoying their vacation and had no idea that they had been found out. They were having fun outside when the police suddenly came looking for them.


    As there was sufficient evidence, the police quickly arrested all the people in charge who were involved at this moment. Half of the management team was vacant.


    Yin Xun found the main person-in-charge, Yu Tu, and said, ¡°If nothing goes wrong, we¡¯ll be starting work again soon. But there are too many vacancies now. Hurry up and recruit people. This quality inspector¡­¡±


    ¡°My name is Jiang Xing.¡± The quality inspector reacted quickly. Seeing that Yin Xun had forgotten his name, he quickly reminded her.


    ¡°Yes, Jiang Xing will be in charge of the quality inspection in the future,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    ¡°Yes!¡± Yu Tu agreed.

 Chapter 55 - 55 I Have Something To Ask Of Yin Mo

    55 I Have Something To Ask Of Yin Mo


    Yin Xun only used half a day to weed out all of Si Fan¡¯s people. As the matter was escalating out of control, someone called Si Fan for help right before they were arrested. In the end, Si Fan cut ties with them without hesitation and did not care at all.


    At this moment, he could not even protect himself. How could he have it in his heart to worry about others?


    Si Fan had never expected that Yin Xun would not only steal the Donggang City project, but even hunt down and arrest the people he had spent so much effort to bribe.


    It seemed that Yin Xun was clearly going against him.


    Although Si Fan was angry, he had to admit that Yin Xun was capable. At least, she was much stronger than Yin Mo.


    After hanging up the call for help, Si Fan walked into the house with a dark expression. Yin Mo was sitting on the sofa leisurely eating fruits. Seeing that Si Fan¡¯s expression was not great, she immediately asked with concern, ¡°Fan, what¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo and compared her to Yin Xun. These two were biological sisters, but why was there such a difference in their brains? Yin Xun¡¯s intentions for returning were clearly to snatch the Yin family¡¯s assets. She would not even let her sister¡¯s boyfriend off the hook.


    On the other hand, Yin Mo was utterly useless. He was in a state of panic, but Yin Mo only knew how to eat, drink, and play. The girl would only move when he dragged her. What a stupid person.


    However, he needed Yin Mo¡¯s help now and could not lose his temper. Si Fan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down before saying, ¡°Mo¡¯er, your sister snatched one of my projects. Did your father mention when he would give me another one?¡±


    After losing a project and having his spies removed by Yin Xun, Si Fan began to worry.


    If he did not get a new project soon, his company would not be able to continue operating.


    Yin Mo shook her head. ¡°I don¡¯t know. I¡¯ll help you ask next time.¡±


    Si Fan continued on, ¡°Then has your Yin family been talking about any new projects recently?¡±


    Yin Mo continued to shake her head. ¡°I don¡¯t know. My sister and father don¡¯t allow me to do business now. They don¡¯t even allow me to go to the company anymore. Fan, you won¡¯t despise me because of this, right? I can¡¯t help you with anything.¡±


    In the face of Yin Mo¡¯s ignorance, Si Fan suppressed the frustration in his heart and went forward to grab Yin Mo¡¯s shoulder. He tried to make his voice as gentle as possible. ¡°How can that be? Mo¡¯er, just stay by my side and be happy. Don¡¯t worry about anything else.¡±


    ¡°Fan, you¡¯re so good to me. I love you.¡± Yin Mo was very happy. She kissed Si Fan lightly and retreated quickly. She lowered her head shyly.


    When Yin Mo lowered her head, Si Fan¡¯s gaze suddenly turned cold, no longer as gentle as before.


    He reached out and softly stroked Yin Mo¡¯s hair. He asked her in a low voice, ¡°Then Mo¡¯er, if I encounter any difficulties, will you do your best to help me? Will you do anything for me?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded. ¡°Of course. Fan, you¡¯re everything to me. If you encounter any trouble, tell me. I can ask my sister or my father for help.¡±


    ¡°No, you don¡¯t go to them. They won¡¯t help me in this.¡±


    Si Fan said, ¡°I urgently need funds now. Can you help me? It¡¯s actually very simple. You just have to show me your company¡¯s project information. Of course, I won¡¯t touch it. I¡¯ll just take a look and then you can put it back¡­¡±


    Yin Mo immediately agreed to all of Si Fan¡¯s requests. Si Fan¡¯s mood finally became much better, and he found Yin Mo pleasing to look at again.


    He felt better now. Coupled with the fact that Yin Mo¡¯s soft body kept moving around on his body, Si Fan felt a warm current flowing downward. He stared at Yin Mo¡¯s fair and slender neck and could not resist lowering his head to kiss her. The room was filled with passion.


    After the two of them were done, Yin Mo was so tired that she fell asleep. Si Fan got up and took a shower. Then, he put on his clothes and made a call.


    Ten minutes later, Xing Cheng arrived.


    ¡°Our bet is about to expire. If you still can¡¯t take down Yin Xun, half of the assets under your name will belong to me.¡± Si Fan lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and slowly exhaled.


    Xing Cheng also lit a cigarette for himself. He leaned against the sofa and cursed, ¡°Yin Xun is different from others. She¡¯s as rational as a man. She¡¯s too difficult to deal with.¡±


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you¡¯ve seen countless women? You actually fell for her.¡± Si Fan smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He looked at Xing Cheng and said, ¡°I have a way to help you take down Yin Xun. When the time comes, you can claim Yin Xun. I¡¯ll have one less competitor and you can have another woman. How about that?¡±

 Chapter 56 - 56 Capture Yin Xun

    56 Capture Yin Xun


    Xing Cheng looked at Si Fan in surprise and asked in disbelief, ¡°Si Fan, aren¡¯t you tempted to get my assets? Although we¡¯re brothers, if I lose the bet, I¡¯ll fulfill my promise and give them to you as promised.¡±


    Si Fan smiled and took a deep puff of his cigarette. He shook the ashes in the ashtray twice before spitting out the cigarette in his mouth. He said slowly, ¡°You said it yourself. We¡¯re brothers. Of course, brothers have to prioritize mutual benefits. When I made the bet with you back then, I never took a fancy to the assets under your name.¡±


    ¡°I know you¡¯ve never been at a disadvantage in terms of relationships. As long as you make a move, how many women can reject you? I knew you were unhappy, so I made that bet with you to stimulate your fighting spirit. But I didn¡¯t expect that the two of us were actually sent to the police station by Yin Xun yesterday.¡±


    ¡°Although all the responsibility was taken by your fat pal in the end and it didn¡¯t affect us, can you live with this anger? Anyway, I can¡¯t. I, Si Fan, have met countless people who tried to scheme against me in my life, but this is the first time I¡¯ve been schemed against by a woman. Since Yin Xun is so conceited, let¡¯s play with her and see who will have the last laugh.¡±


    Xing Cheng nodded. ¡°Indeed, I feel the same way. Bah, it sucks to be played by a woman. I¡¯ve been on the battlefield of love for so many years. I don¡¯t believe I can¡¯t handle a woman.¡±


    ¡°However, Si Fan, Yin Xun is still Yin Mo¡¯s sister after all. Aren¡¯t you afraid that Yin Mo will be angry if she finds out that you¡¯re treating her like this? Yin Mo is so kind. She definitely doesn¡¯t want you to go against her sister.¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s kindness was obvious to everyone. Xing Cheng had a good impression of her. He felt that Yin Mo was a good girl, and Si Fan was his good brother. He sincerely hoped that Si Fan and Yin Mo could end up together. The two of them were really compatible.


    When he heard Xing Cheng mention Yin Mo, Si Fan¡¯s hand that was about to shake off the cigarette ash paused for a moment, but he quickly recovered.


    He took a deep look in the direction of the bedroom. At that moment, Yin Mo was sleeping. It was very quiet and there was no movement at all.


    Si Fan looked at her for a few seconds before putting on an angry expression and saying, ¡°I did all this for Mo¡¯er. But Yin Xun started interfering with the company the moment she returned to the country. She even tried to sow discord between Mo¡¯er and her father, causing Mo¡¯er to be unable to even enter her own company now.¡±


    ¡°If I don¡¯t help, the Yin family¡¯s assets will be taken by Yin Xun alone. Yin Rui is still young, and it¡¯s even more impossible for Yin Rui to defeat Yin Xun, who has studied abroad for so many years. Other than me, no one can help the siblings.¡±


    ¡°Yin Xun won¡¯t let Yin Mo enter the company?¡± Xing Cheng could not help exclaiming.


    Si Fan frowned and glared at him. Only then did Xing Cheng realize that his reaction was too strong. He hurriedly lowered his voice. ¡°I originally thought that Yin Xun was just a simple wild horse. I didn¡¯t expect her to be so ambitious. She even dealt with her own sister. Don¡¯t worry, leave this to me. My title as the little prince of love isn¡¯t for nothing. In less than a week, Yin Xun will be mine.¡±


    Looking at Xing Cheng¡¯s confident expression, Si Fan, who had been feeling gloomy, finally smiled.


    Xing Cheng was right. Xing Cheng was handsome and had a good family background. As long as he put in the effort, not many women could escape his attack.


    At this moment, Si Fan was looking forward to the day Yin Xun was taken down by Xing Cheng. When the time came, he would seize the Yin family¡¯s assets. When Yin Xun lost her value, he would let Xing Cheng dump her ruthlessly.


    Just thinking about it made Si Fan feel relieved.


    ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll wait for the day you succeed. When the time comes, I¡¯ll send any type of beauty you want to your bed.¡± The corners of Si Fan¡¯s mouth curled up slightly, and his mood improved a little.


    The warm sunlight shone into the living room through the French windows, enveloping the two of them. Si Fan felt that it was blinding, so he got up and closed the curtains. Then, he returned to the sofa to continue talking to Xing Cheng.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was engrossed in her work and had no time to think about anything else.


    Because they had just cleared out the management, half of the employees were missing, and Yin Xun was going to discuss the contract with the Liu family in the afternoon.


    In other words, if nothing unexpected happened, the contract would be finalized this afternoon and work would resume.


    She needed to fill up the missing positions as soon as possible. Yin Xun asked Yu Tu to hurry up and recruit. Just as she finished explaining the matters in Donggang, Mary called.


    ¡°President Yin, President Liu wants to meet you at the usual place. He said that he has already arrived. You can do your work first. He said he can wait for you.¡±

 Chapter 57 - 57 The Attentive Liu Cheng

    57 The Attentive Liu Cheng


    Yin Xun looked at the time. It was only slightly past twelve. The time she had agreed to meet Liu Yi was two in the afternoon. It seemed that Liu Yi had arrived long ago and was too embarrassed to rush her, so he did this.


    ¡°I understand. Tell him I¡¯ll be there soon,¡± Yin Xun said and hung up.


    Although Liu Yi had brought the meeting time forward, Yin Xun would not ask him to wait any longer. As soon as Mary finished speaking to her, Yin Xun rushed to the restaurant Liu Yi had arranged.


    Just as she had expected, Liu Yi and Liu Cheng were both there.


    It seemed that Liu Yi had put in a lot of effort to bring up Liu Cheng. He even brought him along to discuss such an ordinary collaboration.


    ¡°Yin Xun, you¡¯re here. Come, let me help you hang that up.¡± Just as Yin Xun walked into the private room, Liu Cheng approached her eagerly and reached out to help Yin Xun carry her bag.


    Yin Xun was stunned by his actions. She quickly took a step back and looked at him warily.


    Liu Cheng saw Yin Xun¡¯s reaction and knew that Yin Xun had misunderstood him. He quickly explained, ¡°I don¡¯t mean anything else. I just want to help you hang up your bag.¡±


    ¡°Thank you, but there¡¯s no need.¡± Yin Xun rejected politely and distantly. Then, she walked in and prepared to sit opposite Liu Yi.


    Liu Yi saw his son¡¯s abnormal behavior and immediately understood what his intentions were. He reprimanded him, ¡°Lil Xun can do it herself. Why would she need your help? Don¡¯t cause trouble. Hurry up and sit down.¡±


    Liu Cheng did not pay attention to Liu Yi. He took two small steps forward and hurried in front of Yin Xun. He pulled a chair out for her and said, ¡°Miss Yin, please take a seat.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Why did she feel like Liu Cheng had become a different person? Was he possessed? Why was he so attentive to her?


    Something was amiss. She looked around the private room and silently calculated the best escape route.


    ¡°Rascal, don¡¯t cause trouble for me. Hurry up and sit back!¡± Liu Yi scolded. Only then did Liu Cheng slowly return to his seat.


    Liu Yi also knew that Liu Cheng¡¯s behavior just now was not good, so he apologized to Yin Xun. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Lil Xun. Don¡¯t mind him. Sometimes, this child¡¯s brain is not in the right place.¡±


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t¡­¡±


    ¡°Shut up!¡± Liu Yi glared at Liu Cheng. Seeing that Liu Cheng had obediently shut up, he smiled again and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Lil Xun, I made a new contract according to your requirements. What do you think this time?¡±


    Yin Xun took the contract and read it carefully.


    She did not miss out on any detail. She read the contract carefully twice and confirmed that Liu Yi had done it according to her requirements and that there was no sneaky clause in the contract. Then, she nodded in satisfaction. ¡°No problem. You can sign it now.¡±


    There was no problem with the contract. Liu Yi and Yin Xun both signed and stamped it.


    ¡°Lil Xun, Uncle doesn¡¯t know what you like to eat, so I ordered the whole menu. Last time, our negotiations didn¡¯t go well, and you didn¡¯t eat. Try eating this time. This restaurant¡¯s dishes are not bad.¡± Liu Yi warmly invited Yin Xun to eat.


    Yin Xun smiled and politely refused. ¡°Thank you, Uncle Liu, but I still have something on. Since the contract has been signed, I should go. You guys eat slowly. We¡¯ll contact you if anything happens.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun stood up and left.


    ¡°Miss Yin, wait!¡± Liu Cheng chased after her.


    Yin Xun stopped and looked back at him in confusion.


    ¡°Miss Yin, where are you going? Why don¡¯t I drive you there?¡± Liu Cheng walked in front of Yin Xun and stretched out his hand, making an inviting gesture.


    ¡°Thank you, but there¡¯s no need. My assistant is at the door.¡± Yin Xun rejected Liu Cheng¡¯s invitation and left.


    Mary, who had been waiting for Yin Xun at the door, also overheard Liu Cheng¡¯s attentiveness to Yin Xun.


    After leaving the restaurant, Mary looked behind her before she said, ¡°President Yin, why would Liu Cheng suddenly be so attentive to you? Could it be that he wants to pursue you?¡±


    ¡°Pursue me?¡± Yin Xun recalled Liu Cheng¡¯s character in the original book. He was timid and irresponsible. He was not firm in his actions and would always waver when he encountered problems.


    She shook her head and said in disdain, ¡°No, I don¡¯t want to be distracted by unrelated matters.¡±


    ¡°So where are we going now?¡± Mary asked.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, ¡°To Donggang.¡±


    Since the contract had been confirmed, she had to personally discuss the next operation with Yu Tu. This project was too important. She had to ensure that nothing went wrong.


    After getting into the car, Yin Xun planned to report the results of the discussion with the Liu family to Yin Cheng. She took out her phone and was about to call when her phone rang.


    Looking at Yin Cheng¡¯s name on her phone, Yin Xun smiled. She and Yin Cheng were indeed father and daughter. It was like their minds were connected.

 Chapter 58 - 58 Her Father’s Concern

    58 Her Father¡¯s Concern


    Yin Xun quickly pressed the answer button. Before she could speak, Yin Cheng¡¯s anxious words came through.


    ¡°Xun, I heard that Si Fan and Xing Cheng tried to kidnap you. Is this true?¡±


    Yin Cheng asked worriedly, ¡°Are you alright? Are you hurt? Did they do anything to you?¡±


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m fine.¡± Yin Xun asked Yin Cheng in surprise, ¡°But how did you know about this? Did Lil Mo tell you?¡±


    After asking that, Yin Xun realized that she was thinking too much. How could Yin Mo possibly tell Yin Cheng about Si Fan¡¯s mistake? She was always eager to cover for Si Fan.


    As expected, she heard the voice on the other end of the phone say, ¡°I saw it on the Internet. I wanted to check the financial news this morning, but I saw this instead. Because of Si Fan and Xing Cheng¡¯s special identities, it¡¯s all over the Internet now¡­¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows in surprise. She originally wanted to use this matter to show off, but it was not the time yet. She wanted to wait and see how things unfolded. She did not expect this matter to spread so quickly, nor did she expect Yin Cheng to know about it so soon.


    Thinking of the group of people outside the club when they were taken away by the police that day, Yin Xun immediately understood that there must have been reporters among them.


    ¡°I almost forgot if you didn¡¯t mention Lil Mo. What¡¯s going on? Why is Mo involved? What happened between the two of you?¡±


    ¡°Is it because of the Donggang project that Si Fan has a grudge against you, so he pulled your sister aside to threaten you? Your sister has never known how to resist, so it would not be surprising that she would obey Si Fan. But to think that that brat would be so petty. He had the nerve to use my youngest daughter to deal with my eldest daughter. I have to ask him out to have a good talk sometime.¡±


    Yin Cheng gritted his teeth as he spoke. It was not hard to imagine how angry he was at this moment.


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t be angry.¡± Seeing that Yin Cheng wanted to stand up for her, Yin Xun¡¯s heart warmed.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be angry? How can I not be angry when someone¡¯s bullying my daughter?!¡± Yin Cheng sighed. ¡°Most importantly, Si Fan is Lil Mo¡¯s boyfriend. In the future, you¡¯ll be his sister-in-law. How can he bully his own sister?!¡±


    ¡°Dad, listen to me first.¡± Yin Xun interrupted Yin Cheng and comforted him. ¡°This matter is actually not like the reports. You also know that this kind of gossip is usually exaggerated and reporters distort the truth.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll tell you in detail when I get home. I was about to call you just now, but I didn¡¯t expect you to call first.¡±


    Yin Xun told Yin Cheng about the outcome of her discussion with the Liu family.


    After hearing that Yin Xun had bought the best materials from the Liu family at the lowest price, and that the Liu family had shouldered all the losses in Donggang City, Yin Cheng finally felt a little better.


    ¡°As expected of Yin Cheng¡¯s daughter. You really have the talent to do business.¡± Yin Cheng praised her.


    ¡°However, you still have to be careful. No matter what happens, you have to tell me. I will support you. No matter who he is, as long as someone bullies my daughter, Daddy will make him suffer!¡± Yin Cheng declared.


    ¡°Got it, Dad,¡± Yin Xun agreed with a smile.


    ¡°By the way, Xun, it¡¯s the weekend tomorrow. You¡¯ve been busy for so long. Give yourself a day off. I will make you delicious food. I¡¯ll make your favorite food. How about that?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I might not be able to go back tomorrow. I still have some things to deal with here. When I¡¯m done here, I¡¯ll tell you the details.¡± Yin Xun rejected Yin Cheng¡¯s offer.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was not going home, Yin Cheng was instantly unhappy. He snorted coldly and said, ¡°Why? Are you so busy that you can¡¯t even go home now? There are so many people in the company. You can just assign work to them. The company wants their employees to work, not enjoy life.¡±


    ¡°Dad, I¡¯ve just gotten used to it. It¡¯ll be better when I get familiar with it in the future. How can there be any reward if I don¡¯t give it my all? Look, your daughter is so hardworking. You should be happy and proud,¡± Yin Xun said coquettishly.


    When he heard Yin Xun acting cute, Yin Cheng could not bear to continue blaming her. He sighed and instructed, ¡°Alright, Daddy knows that you¡¯re different from your sister. Since that¡¯s the case, you can be at ease and do it with all your heart. Daddy will support you from behind.¡±


    ¡°Thank you, Dad!¡± Yin Xun smiled and hung up.


    As soon as she hung up, Yin Xun¡¯s face darkened. She glanced at her phone and called her lawyer.

 Chapter 59 - 59 Treating Fang Yao To A Meal

    59 Treating Fang Yao To A Meal


    ¡°President Yin, don¡¯t worry. Things are going smoothly here. The results will be out tomorrow.¡± On the other end of the phone, although the lawyer spoke convincing words, his tone was not too great, as if he was a little worried.


    Yin Xun sensed that something was wrong and asked, ¡°Are there any other problems?¡±


    The lawyer was silent for a moment before saying, ¡°Although we have absolute evidence, this evidence only points to Xing Cheng and Jiang Chao. Si Fan perfectly avoided every piece of evidence.¡±


    Hearing the lawyer¡¯s words, Yin Xun fell silent.


    Si Fan was indeed the male lead of the original novel. No matter what he did, he could push the blame onto others. Most importantly, his subordinates were willing to go to jail for him.


    Actually, Yin Xun had already expected such an outcome. She had not really expected Si Fan to be sent to prison this time.


    ¡°Alright, I understand. In that case, you can just sue Xing Cheng.¡± Yin Xun hung up after giving instructions.


    Xing Cheng could be considered a great asset to Si Fan. If she pulled Xing Cheng away from Si Fan, Si Fan¡¯s strength would be greatly reduced, and it would be easier to deal with him in the future.


    Inside the car, Yin Xun was thinking about how to deal with Si Fan. The longer she kept this kind of person at large, the more trouble he would cause. She had to think of a way to pull him down as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Yin family would be in danger as long as he was around.


    Back in Donggang City, Yin Xun called Yu Tu and Jiang Xing over and told them about the completion of the contract. She asked them to recruit people as soon as possible and prepare to start work. Yin Xun personally checked on things again and told them what to do. When everything was done, it was already late.


    Yin Xun asked Mary to take a taxi home while she drove to the suburban villa.


    When the car passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, Yin Xun deliberately slowed down to see if she could ¡°coincidentally¡± meet Fang Yao. However, to her disappointment, she did not see Fang Yao.


    However, although she did not see Fang Yao, she did see the butler coming out of the villa.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, what are you busy with?¡± Yin Xun greeted him warmly.


    The butler lifted his head and saw that it was Yin Xun. He laughed as he replied, ¡°These flowers grow really quickly. It has only been a short while, but they must already be trimmed again. Miss Yin, it¡¯s already so late, but you seem to have just gotten off work.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯ve been busy recently.¡± Yin Xun tapped the steering wheel lightly and glanced at the villa behind the butler. She still did not see Fang Yao. She pretended to be nonchalant and asked, ¡°Uncle Butler, where¡¯s Fang Yao? Has he not gotten off work yet?¡±


    The butler looked back into the house. ¡°He just came back too. He should be taking a shower now.¡±


    Upon hearing that Fang Yao was back, Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up. She quickly asked, ¡°Have you guys eaten? Do you want to come to my house to eat? I¡¯ve prepared a lot of dishes. I was worried that I wouldn¡¯t be able to finish them all by myself.¡±


    ¡°You want to treat our young master to a meal?¡± The butler smiled kindly.


    Yin Xun nodded repeatedly.


    ¡°Let me help you ask him,¡± the butler said and immediately returned to the villa.


    Yin Xun parked the car by the roadside and placed one arm on the window while her other hand slowly tapped on the steering wheel.


    A few minutes later, the butler came out. Yin Xun immediately straightened her posture and asked the butler impatiently, ¡°How is it? Is he coming?¡±


    The butler smiled as he said, ¡°Miss Yin, our Young Master is currently taking a shower. He said that he will go over after he is done.¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll go home and prepare.¡±


    The first thing Yin Xun did when she got home was to open the fridge to see what was inside. Seeing that it was filled with food, Yin Xun was very satisfied.


    These were all prepared by Mary. Yin Xun silently praised her, and her impression of Mary increased a little.


    After bringing everything she needed into the kitchen, Yin Xun looked at the ingredients and pot in front of her. She rolled up her sleeves and started to feel troubled.


    She did not know how to cook at all. Even in the other world, she would order takeout and only cook instant noodles occasionally.


    She was good at cooking instant noodles, but Fang Yao was a guest and she had a favor to ask of him. She could not let him eat instant noodles.


    Yin Xun had no choice but to take out her phone and search for cooking recipes online.


    However, when she started to search, she realized that she had forgotten one thing. The Internet in this world was not developed yet. She could only find written versions and not videos.


    Just as Yin Xun was starting to worry, the doorbell suddenly rang. She looked at the screen. It was Fang Yao.


    Yin Xun hurriedly opened the door and invited him in.

 Chapter 60 - 60 Numb

    60 Numb


    ¡°Mr. Fang, I didn¡¯t expect you to come so fast. I¡¯m not ready yet.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Sit here for a while and eat some snacks. Wait for me for a bit. I¡¯ll be done soon.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded in agreement and sat down on the sofa.


    Yin Xun brought him a pile of snacks and placed them on the coffee table before rushing into the kitchen.


    Fang Yao looked at the snacks in front of him and then at Yin Xun. He felt a little exasperated. Yin Xun treated him like a child and actually brought out so many snacks.


    !!


    Next to the snacks were some fruit that Yin Xun had just washed. Fang Yao casually picked up a grape and popped it in his mouth. This fruit must have been just taken out of the fridge. It was cold and tasted good.


    The grapes were delicious, so Fang Yao ate two more. He had been busy all day and had not eaten yet. Only after eating two grapes did he feel the hunger kick in.


    Looking at Yin Xun who was busy in the kitchen, Fang Yao was suddenly looking forward to tonight¡¯s dinner.


    However, that anticipation did not last long. Suddenly, he heard a clanging sound coming from the kitchen. He had no idea what had fallen to the ground.


    Then, Fang Yao saw Yin Xun bending over and squatting on the ground, doing something.


    He was suddenly worried, so he asked, ¡°Do you need help?¡±


    ¡°No, no need! Just sit there and wait for me!¡± Yin Xun¡¯s words sounded a little anxious. Just as she finished speaking, there was another clatter from the kitchen and Yin Xun gave a low cry of surprise.


    ¡°¡­Okay.¡± Fang Yao was afraid that he would be a hindrance if he went over, so he sat on the sofa and stopped paying attention to Yin Xun.


    Having nothing to do, Fang Yao began to look around the room carefully. Although he had already looked around when he came in just now, he had only casually looked at the distribution of the rooms and had not looked at the details.


    The room was well decorated. It was mainly white, and there was no furniture in the room. Other than the necessary sofa, table, and refrigerator, there was nothing else. It looked simple, elegant, clean, and bright.


    It was said that one could tell the host¡¯s personality from the renovation of the room. Based on his preliminary observation, Yin Xun must be a more casual person. She was probably more focused on work and did not care for leisure much.


    He also remembered how the apology gift Yin Xun gave him was a light bulb, of all things. Although the light bulb was made of crystal and was very beautiful, only Yin Xun could think of giving him such a gift.


    While Fang Yao was observing the room, he suddenly smelled a strange smell, as if something was burning.


    Fang Yao turned around and looked in the direction of the kitchen. Just as he was about to ask Yin Xun what was wrong, he saw Yin Xun walking out with a plate of food.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry. This is my first time cooking, so I was a little slow. However, the taste should still be alright. Come and try it.¡± Yin Xun placed the dish on the table and warmly invited Fang Yao to try it.


    Fang Yao walked over. When he saw the blackened plate on the table, all his initial anticipation instantly disappeared. At this moment, he was filled with dread.


    He picked up his chopsticks and picked up some food. Smelling the strong burnt smell, he frowned and asked, ¡°What is this?¡±


    ¡°Stir-fried meat with mushrooms! It doesn¡¯t look great, but¡­¡± Yin Xun wanted to say that the taste was decent, but she could not bring herself to say it when she looked at the plate of charred and black stuff.


    ¡°Try it first. It doesn¡¯t look good, but it doesn¡¯t mean that it doesn¡¯t taste good. I think it should be edible.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s voice became softer and softer. It seemed that even she could not stand it anymore.


    ¡°Forget it, let¡¯s not try this for now. There are still some ingredients in the kitchen. I¡¯ll make two more dishes. With this experience, I¡¯ll be able to make something.¡± Yin Xun wanted to take the dish away.


    ¡°Wait, it¡¯ll be a waste to throw it away. Let me try it.¡±


    Fang Yao stopped her. He saw that Yin Xun had worked hard to prepare this dish and decided to spare her some dignity.


    Therefore, he picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of something that was either mushroom or meat. He put it in his mouth.


    He had just put the food into his mouth and had yet to start chewing when a salty sensation invaded his mouth. Even his tongue felt numb. At this moment, it was as if he had just eaten a mouthful of salt.


    Fang Yao frowned slightly and tried to chew, but because his tongue was numb, he could not feel anything other than saltiness.


    Although he could not taste it, he could feel the texture. In the end, he still did not know if he was eating meat or mushrooms. It was woody and hard.


    With great effort, Fang Yao swallowed the food in his mouth. After that, he let out a long sigh of relief. This dish had truly subverted his understanding of food.

 Chapter 61 - 61 Don’t Understand The Appropriate Amount

    61 Don¡¯t Understand The Appropriate Amount


    ¡°Let¡¯s take it down.¡± In the end, Fang Yao agreed with Yin Xun¡¯s initial suggestion.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    She knew it.


    ¡°How did you make this dish?¡± Fang Yao had never eaten such a bad dish before and could not help but ask out of curiosity.


    !!


    Yin Xun had been observing Fang Yao¡¯s expression as he ate. Although Fang Yao was trying his best to hide his pain, Yin Xun still noticed it.


    She picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece to try. Although she made it herself, she was not as strong as Fang Yao. She only chewed for a moment before spitting the food into the trash can.


    ¡°It really tastes awful.¡± Yin Xun smiled awkwardly. ¡°Actually, I followed a recipe step by step. It¡¯s just that when I added the seasoning, the recipe just said to add the appropriate amount. Anything is appropriate. I don¡¯t know how much this appropriate amount is.¡±


    ¡°I was afraid that if I added too little seasoning and the taste would be too faint, so I added more salt. I didn¡¯t expect it to be like this.¡±


    Yin Xun was playing it down. Actually, she did not add just a little salt. She added all kinds of seasonings, which was why the dishes were so salty.


    After listening to Yin Xun¡¯s explanation, Fang Yao sighed. As expected, he should not have had any expectations for Yin Xun.


    He should have thought of this when he heard the clattering in the kitchen. People who actually knew how to cook would not be so flustered.


    Yin Xun said guiltily, ¡°Well, actually, I¡¯m just not used to it. But I know how to add seasoning now. There is still a lot of food in the kitchen. I¡¯ll definitely succeed if I make a few more dishes¡­¡±


    Yin Xun took the stir-fried meat with mushrooms and planned to throw it away.


    As she spoke, she walked toward the kitchen. Fang Yao looked at her muttering and felt a little helpless.


    He got up and walked to the kitchen as well. However, he did not expect that just as he reached the door, Yin Xun would close it with a bang.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    Yin Xun returned to the kitchen and looked at the various ingredients in front of her. She did not know where to start.


    She still wanted to find an opportunity to discuss the collaboration with Fang Yao. If she did not treat Fang Yao well first, the collaboration would most likely fail. She had thought about ordering takeout, but unfortunately, takeout was only available in the city, not in such a remote place.


    However, that made her think of another business opportunity. The residents here were all wealthy people, so she could open a high-end restaurant to serve the rich folk here.


    Yin Xun sighed. There were indeed advantages to being behind. There were business opportunities everywhere.


    However, no matter how good the business opportunity was, it was a matter for the future. It was more important to resolve the current matter first. Fang Yao was still waiting outside for dinner, but she did not know how to cook. She had no choice but to ask Mary for help.


    Yin Xun picked up her phone and walked to the far corner of the kitchen to call Mary, hoping she could guide her on the phone.


    ¡°President Yin, cooking is actually very simple. You just need to add the right amount of oil, the right amount of salt, and the right amount of seasoning.¡± Mary guided her easily over the phone.


    Yin Xun¡¯s head was about to explode when he heard that everything had to be in the ¡®right¡¯ amount.


    ¡°So what¡¯s the right amount?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s question, Mary was in a dilemma. She said, ¡°It depends on how many dishes you put in, how much oil¡­¡±


    Before Mary could finish, there was a knock on the kitchen door.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, please wait a moment. I¡¯ll be done soon,¡± Yin Xun said embarrassedly.


    She thought that Fang Yao was losing his patience, but she was caught off guard when she heard him say, ¡°Come out. Let me do it.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun hung up the call and opened the kitchen door. Only her head was revealed as she looked at Fang Yao in shock. ¡°You know how to cook? But you¡¯re a guest. It¡¯s embarrassing to ask you to cook.¡±


    ¡°You must let the guests eat.¡± Fang Yao glanced at the stir-fried meat with mushrooms on the kitchen table. ¡°Won¡¯t you feel even more embarrassed about this dish?¡±


    Yin Xun felt that Fang Yao had a point.


    Fang Yao continued, ¡°Also, any food you make can¡¯t be eaten. This is called wasting food. It¡¯s shameful to waste food.¡±


    Yin Xun stammered, ¡°Uh, that¡¯s true.¡±


    Although Fang Yao was right, she felt that something was wrong.


    Fang Yao did not give Yin Xun time to react. He pushed open the door and walked into the kitchen. Although Yin Xun felt embarrassed, it was her fault for not being good at cooking, so she obediently watched Fang Yao cook.


    She did not expect Fang Yao to know how to cook even with his noble status. His movements were skillful. He cut the vegetables, put them in the pot, and stirred the ladle. He was as smooth as a chef on television.


    Before long, Fang Yao had prepared a table full of delicious dishes.

 Chapter 62 - 62 Maybe It’s Talent

    62 Maybe It¡¯s Talent


    ¡°Try it.¡± After Fang Yao was done cooking, he washed his hands and walked to the dining table to invite Yin Xun to try the food.


    At this moment, it was as if Yin Xun was the guest and Fang Yao was the host.


    Yin Xun raised her chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat to taste. The moment she put it in her mouth, her eyes lit up and she praised him sincerely, ¡°It smells so good. Can we start eating now?¡±


    Fang Yao nodded slightly and said, ¡°Go ahead.¡±


    !!


    With Fang Yao¡¯s permission, Yin Xun lowered her head and started to dig in. However, halfway through the meal, she realized that she and Fang Yao seemed to have swapped roles. She was the one who invited Fang Yao over for dinner.


    However, the meal was already prepared. Yin Xun felt embarrassed for a moment before continuing to eat. Fang Yao smiled when he saw Yin Xun eating so happily.


    Although Yin Xun was focused on eating, she did not forget her reason for inviting Fang Yao here today. She wanted to find an opportunity to discuss collaboration terms with Fang Yao.


    As she ate, she thought about what to say. She looked up and met Fang Yao¡¯s gaze.


    Yin Xun smiled sheepishly and said, ¡°Mr. Fang, I¡¯m really sorry. I wanted to treat you to a meal today, but it turned out to be you treating me. I¡¯ll make it up to you next time. Still, you don¡¯t have to cook for yourself at home, do you? Then why are your culinary skills so good?¡±


    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s talented,¡± Fang Yao said casually.


    Yin Xun thought he was mocking her indirectly, but then he heard Fang Yao continue, ¡°I usually watch the servants cook when I¡¯m tired. After watching them for so long, it¡¯s natural that I picked things up. This is my second time cooking. I had just planned to give it a try here. I thought that no matter how bad it turned out, it wouldn¡¯t be worse than that plate of stir-fried meat with mushrooms. But I didn¡¯t expect the results to be good.¡±


    After listening to Fang Yao, Yin Xun crinkled her nose. She had guessed right. Fang Yao was mocking her.


    Nevertheless, Yin Xun was not angry. There was no harm to be mocked by such a big shot. After all, they had the power to do so.


    She recalled the description of Fang Yao in the original book. Even though it was only a brief mention, the fact that he had the strongest background possible showed that Fang Yao was destined to be a big shot. Coupled with his ability to learn and execute he displayed today, Yin Xun was even more convinced that she made the right choice.


    As Yin Xun ate, she thought about how to discuss the collaboration with Fang Yao.


    When she finally finished eating, she decided to come clean with him.


    She had read countless novels. The big shots all had one thing in common, which was that they hated lies and flattery. People should say whatever they wanted to say and gain the favor of these people.


    Yin Xun was originally sitting opposite Fang Yao. After making up her mind, she got up and poured a cup of tea for Fang Yao before sitting beside him.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, there¡¯s something I¡¯m not sure if I should say. Although we haven¡¯t known each other for long, I already consider you one of my best friends. So, after thinking for a long time, I decided to tell you.¡±


    Yin Xun took a deep breath and looked like she was cheering herself on.


    She said with a serious expression, ¡°Actually, I didn¡¯t just want to treat you to a meal today. There¡¯s something I¡¯ve kept in my heart for a long time. I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you.¡± Yin Xun stared directly at Fang Yao and asked, ¡°Mr. Fang, since you accepted my invitation, I take it that you don¡¯t hate me, right?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes were filled with anticipation as she looked at Fang Yao. The gaze gave Fang Yao a bad feeling. His heart skipped a beat as he stared at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun looked very much like the girls who had confessed to him in the past. They also looked at him with this type of anticipation, but when they heard his rejection, their anticipation turned into disappointment. In the end, they left in tears.


    Although he was a little interested in Yin Xun, it was nothing more than that. It was far from the extent of fancying her.


    Seeing how serious Yin Xun was, if she confessed to him now, how could he explain his thoughts without hurting Yin Xun¡¯s pride?


    ¡°You¡¯re right. But Miss Yin, although I do not hate you, isn¡¯t it a little too soon for us to talk about this kind of thing¡­¡±


    ¡°This kind of thing is better done as soon as possible. It¡¯s easy to miss the chance if you wait!¡± Yin Xun leaned closer.


    Fang Yao felt his heart suddenly beat faster, and he subconsciously hid behind her. ¡°Miss Yin, actually, I am very busy with work, and I have never thought about this kind of thing. Why don¡¯t we both calm down and talk about it later?¡±

 Chapter 63 - 63 Please Cooperate With Me

    63 Please Cooperate With Me


    ¡°No! This can¡¯t wait. It¡¯s not easy to find such a suitable person. I can¡¯t miss this opportunity. If I do, who knows how much longer I¡¯ll have to wait!¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin, Miss Yin, I¡¯m not ready yet. This is too sudden!¡± Fang Yao¡¯s gaze was actually somewhat ablaze. He did not expect Yin Xun to be so straightforward. The moment she opened her mouth, what came out was an explosive confession.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, please cooperate with me!¡± Yin Xun took a deep breath and stood in front of Fang Yao. With incomparable sincerity, she bowed deeply.


    After saying that, she finally felt relieved¡ªshe finally said what she had been suppressing for a long time.


    !!


    ¡°Huh?¡± Fang Yao, who was still thinking about how to reject Yin Xun gently so that he would not wound her, was stunned when he heard her words. He looked at her in shock and said, ¡°What did you just say? You want to work with me?¡±


    Fang Yao thought he had misheard and asked again.


    ¡°Yes, I want to work with you.¡± Yin Xun quickly nodded and repeated it.


    Then, she saw Fang Yao¡¯s expression become rather interesting. For a moment, it looked like happiness, shock, disappointment, and embarrassment flashed across his face at the same time.


    This was the first time Yin Xun had seen so many emotions on Fang Yao¡¯s face. She thought to herself that her poor hospitality must have dissatisfied Fang Yao. Then, when he heard that she wanted to cooperate with him, he was pissed.


    In order to comfort Fang Yao, she quickly added, ¡°Although I didn¡¯t properly treat you to a meal today, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m very reliable when it comes to business. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can take a look at my proposal before making a decision!¡±


    Afraid of being rejected by Fang Yao, Yin Xun quickly ran to the table beside him, took out a folder, and handed it to Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao took the folder and still had not calmed down. He had not expected Yin Xun to have laid out this much groundwork. During such an ambiguous situation, she actually just wanted to discuss a collaboration with him?


    For a moment, Fang Yao felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart. It was not very comfortable.


    He suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, opened the folder, and began to read.


    Soon, the discomfort was replaced by surprise. After reading the proposal, he looked up at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Is this your plan?¡±


    ¡°Yes, how is it, Mr. Fang? Are you interested?¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao expectantly.


    Although she believed that the plan would be successful, this was only under the premise that she could predict the future trend. It involved many things that had yet to appear, so to Fang Yao, this proposal was essentially about mapping out the future.


    She could not use her original world¡¯s way of thinking to gauge the people here, so Yin Xun was a little nervous. She did not know if Fang Yao would agree to her request.


    ¡°Your proposal seems to be a little advanced.¡± Fang Yao placed the document on the table and tapped his fingers on it.


    He did not agree or refuse. It seemed that he was doubting the feasibility of the plan.


    Yin Xun sat down and prepared to discuss this project with Fang Yao.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, I know that the current level of technology is far from what I¡¯m imagining. However, technology is developing rapidly now. With this momentum, I believe it won¡¯t be long before society enters the Internet era. My idea is to start an online company that mainly focuses on online shopping and socializing before that era arrives.¡±


    ¡°The world¡¯s business opportunity is like a cake, but this cake hasn¡¯t taken shape yet. It¡¯s just an embryo and hasn¡¯t been decorated with cream and other toppings. Let¡¯s occupy the cake first. In the future, with cream and toppings, we can decorate it however we like and make it into any flavor we want.¡±


    ¡°However, if we give up on seizing this cake from the start, everyone will be eyeing this delicious cake after it takes shape. At that time, it will be too late for us to take it for ourselves.¡± Yin Xun gave Fang Yao an example to explain her thoughts.


    ¡°Your plan is very detailed, but if we are to work together, what do you want from me?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Yin Xun¡¯s proposal only contained a plan for the future, but not the specifics of the cooperation with him. Whether this cooperation was feasible or not, he needed to hear Yin Xun¡¯s request first.


    Yin Xun smiled and slowly said, ¡°I hope Mr. Fang can invest¡­¡±

 Chapter 64 - 64 Getting Big Boss Investors

    64 Getting Big Boss Investors


    Before Yin Xun could finish, her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and looked. It was a call from an unknown number.


    She pressed the answer button in front of Fang Yao and heard Xing Cheng¡¯s voice from the other end of the phone. ¡°Lil Xunxun, are you free tomorrow? Let me treat you¡­¡±


    ¡°No time.¡± Yin Xun cut across Xing Cheng and hung up.


    Fang Yao also heard the voice on the phone. He looked at Yin Xun and raised his eyebrows.


    The man called her Lil Xunxun. He even asked if she was free tomorrow. They were so intimate. It seemed like he was Yin Xun¡¯s suitor.


    However, Yin Xun hung up without listening to him. She did not seem interested in this person at all.


    For some reason, that made Fang Yao feel a little better. Thinking of this, however, he could not help but wonder why he was having such thoughts.


    After Yin Xun hung up, she continued to discuss the collaboration with Fang Yao.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, let¡¯s continue the topic. I hope you can invest in my project.¡± Yin Xun straightened her expression¡ªshe looked very serious.


    Fang Yao frowned slightly. He looked at the proposal in his hand, then looked at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Does the Yin family not know how to invest? Your family owns one of the top big companies in the country. If you lack funds, as long as you have the Yin family¡¯s support, it should not be a problem.¡±


    ¡°Mr. Fang, the Yin family will definitely invest, but just the Yin family alone is not enough. I want to be the first internet company in the country, and I plan to devote most of my energy to this project in the future. The latest trend is computer online shopping and computer dating. Phones can only be used to make calls and text messages. At most, they can only load some simple web pages.¡±


    ¡°In my vision, our communication focus will be on the phones of the future. After all, computers are big and expensive. Not everyone likes to use computers. Phones are small and handy. It¡¯s the most convenient thing for making friends or shopping.¡±


    Yin Xun was very confident about this.


    She had discovered this as soon as she transmigrated to this world. The general development level of this world was many years behind that of her original world. Putting aside the problem of the phone functions, even the software on computers was pitifully scarce. This was a huge opportunity.


    Fang Yao¡¯s expression turned serious. He looked to be genuinely interested.


    ¡°As far as I know, the largest online company in the country is Si Fan¡¯s Blue Fox Internet Company. His company has been formed ages ago. What makes you think you can surpass him and become the number one in the country?¡± Fang Yao crossed his legs and leaned against the sofa as he looked at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun smiled. She had been waiting for Fang Yao to ask this question.


    ¡°Because our development direction is different. His company specializes in computers, while I specialize in mobile phones. Of course, I know the consequences of a start-up company going against a mature company, but if our racing track is different, it¡¯s a different story.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, I don¡¯t know if you¡¯ve noticed, but mobile phone systems change especially quickly nowadays, and several apps have already appeared. Since mobile phones can already install software now, why can¡¯t we move the shopping and dating from computers to phones in the next stage?¡±


    ¡°Of course, this is just the beginning. After this step, I plan to work with phone manufacturers next to talk about whether I can bring shopping and dating apps with me. I believe that phones will become a necessity for everyone in the future.¡±


    When Yin Xun was talking about these things, her confidence attracted Fang Yao¡¯s attention. Fang Yao kept staring at her. Yin Xun¡¯s confident look gave him the feeling that she would really succeed.


    ¡°Mr. Fang, I heard that your father seems to have thought about doing business on the Internet. However, because Si Fan¡¯s company has already taken shape, he used his resources to ruthlessly suppress your Fang family once. Don¡¯t you want to show him that you just chose not to take action last time? Don¡¯t you want to show him that, as long as you take action, you can easily surpass Blue Fox?¡±


    Yin Xun raised her chin slightly, looking very confident.


    She had not gone out of her way to inquire about this matter. It had appeared in the original text. Si Fan had the aura of a male lead, so the author would deliberately lower the influence of other big shots.


    For example, there was the matter of investing in an online company. In the original text, the author implied that the Fang family only wanted to test the waters. Later on, for some reason, they suddenly stopped. Therefore, it seemed that Si Fan had succeeded in suppressing them.


    This incident also helped Si Fan¡¯s company¡¯s stock market to soar. After all, he was the only one who could snatch resources from the Fang family.

 Chapter 65 - 65 Do You Understand Si Fan?

    65 Do You Understand Si Fan?


    Fang Yao tapped his fingers on the table and asked Yin Xun, ¡°It was my father who failed last time, not me. Why would I need to prove anything to him?¡±


    He picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip of tea before continuing, ¡°The business world is like a battlefield. It¡¯s all about whether you will profit in the end, not proving something or being hot-blooded. All I want to know is what I will get if I invest in you.¡±


    It was a very realistic question, but it was precisely because of this that Yin Xun felt that she had found the right person.


    If Fang Yao had agreed to invest just because of her exaggerated speech, she would have second-guessed whether she had actually found a good partner.


    ¡°If you agree to invest, I¡¯ll sign a guaranteed contract with you. Even if the company doesn¡¯t develop and I lose money in the end, I¡¯ll repay 80% of your capital. The loss shouldn¡¯t be much to you. Investing in a very promising project with minimal risk. I think you should be interested in it.¡±


    In order to get Fang Yao to invest, Yin Xun was willing to sign a treaty that was unfair to her, even though she was confident in her own ideas and believed that she could not fail.


    ¡°You¡¯ve done so much just to get me to invest. Why are you willing to pay such a huge price to set up an online company? If you fail, you should know the consequences better than me.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun said with a half-smile, ¡°Of course, it¡¯s safer to be content with the current situation, but we will not advance any further. Eventually, we will be at Si Fan¡¯s mercy.¡±


    ¡°Since I¡¯m sincerely asking to cooperate with you, I think it¡¯s necessary to tell you about this. Currently, my biggest opponent is Si Fan, because I¡¯ve been going directly against him. He¡¯s already set his sights on me.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, looking a little dangerous. He looked at Yin Xun and asked in a low voice, ¡°So you¡¯re not setting up a company for yourself? You just want to take a shot at Si Fan?¡±


    ¡°Si Fan is your sister¡¯s boyfriend. Logically speaking, the two of you will soon become a family. Since you¡¯re already a family, why are you still going against him?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°He¡¯s not worth my blood. Of course, my main goal is to set up an online company and deal with him while I¡¯m at it.¡±


    Although she did not finish reading all the specific contents of the novel, she patiently read the first half and knew the final ending.


    She did not even need to go out of her way to follow Si Fan to find out what his next step was, so the current Si Fan was not important to her.


    She would first quietly develop her strength. By the time Si Fan realized that something was wrong and wanted to deal with her, she would already be in a position of power. When the time came, even if she fought Si Fan head-on, she would not panic at all.


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression was very calm, as if she had seen through everything.


    Fang Yao looked at her and raised his eyebrows as he asked, ¡°Do you have a feud? I¡¯ve never heard of any conflict between Si Fan and the Yin family. As far as I know, Si Fan is currently relying on the Yin family to survive. Even the project he obtained was given to him by the Yin family.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no conflict at the moment, but it will happen very soon.¡± Yin Xun sighed and continued, ¡°Si Fan¡¯s relationship with my sister is not sincere at all. He only wants to use my sister to devour the Yin family. I discovered it and now he¡¯s targeting me. So now his plan is to deal with me first before destroying the Yin family.¡±


    ¡°How much do you know about Si Fan?¡± Fang Yao pressed. ¡°Do you know his trump card? Are you aware that, other than his business on the surface, he has also gathered many underlings?¡±


    Of course, she knew what he was doing. She had read the original novel. However, she could not say this to Fang Yao.


    ¡°No matter what trump card he has, I have to do this. Even if I don¡¯t make a move, he won¡¯t let me off in the end. Since it¡¯s like this, I can only give it my all,¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    Fang Yao nodded approvingly. ¡°You¡¯re right about that. However, I have to remind you that Si Fan is not as simple as he looks. His image is spotless, but he uses his subordinates¡¯ names to do illegal things in the Dawn Club. He has many dealings with the underworld.¡±


    ¡°If you really want to go against him, you can¡¯t rely on your plans alone. You have to consider how you¡¯ll deal with him if he uses underworld tricks on you.¡±

 Chapter 66 - 66 Help Before Investing

    66 Help Before Investing


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao, her eyes bright. ¡°I naturally can¡¯t move him now, but I can disgust him from time to time. I¡¯ll make him look away from me for the time being. I have a plan, but it¡¯s not appropriate for me to be the one doing it. But if you do it, it¡¯ll be simple.¡±


    ¡°Oh?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Mr. Fang, I know you don¡¯t trust me now and are still considering whether to invest. You can examine me for a while and see my performance before making the decision. However, before that, I want to ask you to do something for me. It¡¯s very simple. You don¡¯t have to personally do it.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded and gestured for her to continue.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°The Si Family has a lot of connections. Ordinary matters can¡¯t affect him at all. However, we can report that his company and club do not meet the standard for fire protection and that he evaded taxes. He won¡¯t expect someone to deliberately mess with him over such a small matter.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts, Fang Yao laughed. He did not expect Yin Xun to come up with such a harmless yet despicable move.


    However¡­ Fang Yao asked, ¡°Fire protection standards are easy to deal with because every company has this problem. But how do you know about tax evasion? If this isn¡¯t true, you might end up getting yourself into trouble.¡±


    Of course, it was because she had read the script.


    ¡°This is a trade secret. When you decide to work with me in the future, I will surely tell you.¡± Yin Xun revealed an enigmatic smile. She did not plan to tell Fang Yao.


    ¡°Since we haven¡¯t cooperated yet, why do you think I¡¯ll help you? Just because of today¡¯s meal?¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun mockingly. Most importantly, he was the one who cooked this meal.


    ¡°Uh¡­¡± Yin Xun frowned. ¡°Why don¡¯t I cook for you every day from now on?¡±


    Fang Yao said, ¡°Forget it, I still want to live a few more years.¡±


    The thing that Yin Xun made could only be eaten by those who had lost all their five senses.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s getting late. I should go back. I¡¯ll take this proposal back and take a look. As for what to do, I¡¯ll need you to write a detailed plan. As for whether or not I¡¯ll invest, I¡¯ll have to observe you for a while longer. After all, there¡¯s no investment that¡¯s guaranteed to be profitable.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Yin Xun agreed happily.


    After sending Fang Yao off, she heaved a long sigh of relief.


    In fact, she was still a little nervous just now. After all, with Fang Yao¡¯s status, if she accidentally offended him, it would be even more difficult for her in the future.


    If she wanted to start an online company, the most important thing was to keep up with the latest news. After Yin Xun tidied up the house, she turned on her computer and began to browse the news over the past few days.


    As soon as she opened the webpage, a piece of gossip popped up. The title was very eye-catching.


    ¡°I¡¯m shocked. The president of Blue Fox, Si Fan, is actually doing illegal things with the young master of the Xing family, Xing Cheng!¡±


    The content was a photo taken at the entrance of the club that day. Si Fan and Xing Cheng were tied up by the police and forced into the police car. Behind them was Yin Xun holding Yin Mo¡¯s hand.


    Yin Xun continued reading. The article was about Si Fan and Xing Cheng being kidnappers and kidnapping his girlfriend¡¯s sister. After reading it, Yin Xun retreated and realized that even the trending topic was about this.


    Although the matter had blown up, the Blue Fox Corporation and the Xing family were quick to refute the rumors. They had already issued an announcement to deny the rumors and threatened that if any more media outlets spouted nonsense, they would call the police to deal with it.


    After the announcement was made, there were indeed no more media-related matters. The trending topics she saw were all from before the announcement.


    She did not expect the media to be so cooperative. Yin Xun smiled and switched to the finance channel.


    Although she felt very relieved at this moment, she also knew that this matter was just a small interlude. It was just a small fight and would not affect Si Fan at all.


    Yin Xun was watching the news when Yin Mo suddenly called.


    ¡°Sis, have you seen the news?¡± Yin Mo asked anxiously the moment she picked up the call.


    ¡°No.¡± Yin Xun was blunt.


    ¡°Sis, look at the news. There was a huge misunderstanding about what happened yesterday. Everyone is thinking that Si Fan tried to harm you and spread all kinds of rumors about him and Xing Cheng. Si Fan¡¯s rivals, in particular, used this opportunity to show off. Now, Si Fan¡¯s company¡¯s shares have fallen a lot¡­¡±


    Yin Xun interrupted Yin Mo and said impatiently, ¡°What does this have to do with me?¡±

 Chapter 67 - 67 You Two Are A Good Match

    67 You Two Are A Good Match


    ¡°Sister, you must know that these are all jokes made among friends. Can you please refute the rumors tomorrow?¡± Yin Mo asked.


    ¡°No, I¡¯m not friends with them. We¡¯re not even close.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was calm as she drew a clear line with Si Fan and the others.


    Yin Mo hurriedly said, ¡°But Sister, Si Fan is my boyfriend!¡±


    ¡°If he¡¯s your boyfriend, you go help him. He¡¯s not my boyfriend. What does it have to do with me?¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    !!


    Yin Mo was stunned for a moment. She seemed to think that Yin Xun was right and fell silent.


    Yin Xun saw that there was no movement on the other end of the phone and was about to hang up when she heard Yin Mo speak again, ¡°Sister, even if you don¡¯t want to help Si Fan, you should step forward and explain for Xing Cheng¡¯s sake, right?¡±


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°What does Xing Cheng have to do with me?¡±


    ¡°Sister, you should be able to tell that Xing Cheng likes you very much, right? But he knows that you definitely won¡¯t go on ordinary dates, so he thought of this method. He doesn¡¯t have any ill intentions. He just wants to take the opportunity to ask you out. Actually, I think he¡¯s very compatible with you¡­¡±


    When Yin Xun heard this, her blood pressure immediately soared. At this moment, she really wanted to crack open Yin Mo¡¯s skull and see if it was half water and half paste inside. As long as she moved her head, its contents would become a lumpy paste.


    No one in their right mind would threaten a girl by kidnapping her sister and even preparing a sex room. Was this not against the law?


    She tried to tell Yin Mo what she thought. ¡°Yin Mo, didn¡¯t you see the room that Xing Cheng asked me to go into? I¡¯m sure you know better than me what kind of room it is. If I hadn¡¯t called the police in advance and really listened to them and went alone, you must have realized what would have happened.¡±


    ¡°No way. Xing Cheng isn¡¯t that kind of person. He just wants to scare you a little,¡± Yin Mo muttered softly.


    Indeed, she could not expect Yin Mo to be smart.


    ¡°Yin Mo, don¡¯t forget why I went there that day. I went there to save you. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t thank me, but you still want to push me into the fire pit?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s voice gradually became serious.


    ¡°Sister, that¡¯s not true!¡± Yin Mo quickly explained, ¡°I really think Xing Cheng is not a bad guy. He comes from a good family, he¡¯s handsome and talented. Many girls like him, but he only has eyes for you. Sister, I really think you two are a good match. How is this pushing you into a fire pit?¡±


    Hearing Yin Mo¡¯s words, Yin Xun fell silent. She made a mistake. She should not have explained so much to Yin Mo. If Yin Mo actually had a brain that could tell right from wrong, her character would not have been so miserable in the original book, and the Yin family would not have been destroyed.


    ¡°Sister, are you still there?¡± Yin Mo called out softly when she saw that Yin Xun had gone silent.


    ¡°No, so get lost,¡± Yin Xun said calmly and hung up.


    After hanging up, Yin Xun immediately switched off her phone. She knew that Yin Mo would try to call again. Without thinking, she knew that Si Fan had asked her to do this. Otherwise, with her brain, how could she have thought of this?


    Not wanting Yin Mo to affect her mood, Yin Xun turned off the computer. After washing up, she took a glass of fruit juice and planned to go to the balcony for a breather.


    The weather was good tonight. The sky was filled with twinkling stars, and there was not even a hint of wind. Yin Xun leaned against the balcony railing with the glass of juice in one hand and rested her chin on the other as she thought about tomorrow¡¯s work.


    Just as she was lost in her thoughts, she heard a bang. The window opposite opened, and she saw Fang Yao.


    ¡°It¡¯s already so late. Why aren¡¯t you asleep yet?¡± Yin Xun immediately greeted Fang Yao with a smile. At the same time, she discreetly tidied her pajamas.


    ¡°Yes, I still have some work to do,¡± Fang Yao replied. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you asleep yet?¡±


    Yin Xun sighed and said, ¡°I just had a call with my sister. It¡¯s fine if she¡¯s brainless, but she actually tried to introduce a boyfriend to me. The guy in question is a playboy who doesn¡¯t listen to my rejections at all. And my sister says it¡¯s for my own good.¡±


    ¡°Your sister introduced a guy to you?¡± Fang Yao¡¯s voice deepened.


    Yin Xun replied, ¡°Yes, the guy is her boyfriend¡¯s good pal. The man¡¯s girlfriend changes almost every day. He¡¯s promiscuous and dirty.¡±


    Fang Yao caught a piece of information from Yin Xun¡¯s words. He raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡°So you only despise him for having too much love history and not for other reasons?¡±


    ¡°Of course not. Feelings are one thing. There are also many reasons. He does whatever he wants with his family background and never thinks of improving.¡± At this point, the image of Xing Cheng sleeping with those girls who had been drugged suddenly appeared in Yin Xun¡¯s mind. She was so disgusted that she could not even drink the juice.

 Chapter 68 - 68 What Kind Of Person Do You Like

    68 What Kind Of Person Do You Like


    Fang Yao was not expecting her to have such a big reaction. He could not help but be interested.


    ¡°Then what kind of person do you like?¡± Fang Yao felt that his direct question was a little sudden, so he added, ¡°You don¡¯t have to answer if you don¡¯t want to.¡±


    ¡°Why wouldn¡¯t I?¡± Yin Xun said indifferently, ¡°A boyfriend will only drag me down. My current goal is to start a company and make myself stronger first. After everything stabilizes, it doesn¡¯t matter what kind of boyfriend I look for.¡±


    When Yin Xun talked about her dream, her tone became confident.


    !!


    Although it was nighttime, Fang Yao seemed to see stars in her eyes under the light.


    His heart skipped a beat as he murmured, ¡°I see.¡±


    ¡°Huh? What was that?¡± Yin Xun did not hear what Fang Yao said.


    Fang Yao looked at her and said, ¡°I said it¡¯s too late now. We should rest.¡±


    There was a hint of a smile on his face.


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯m stupid? You clearly didn¡¯t say so many words just now,¡± Yin Xun muttered.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    He heard that.


    ¡°But it is very late. I should go to bed. I still have a lot of work to do tomorrow. You should rest early too. Good night.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said goodbye to Fang Yao.


    ¡°Mm, good night.¡± Fang Yao nodded.


    Yin Xun returned to her room while Fang Yao closed the window.


    Yin Xun had a good night¡¯s rest.


    Although she had encountered many troubles in this world, she would never let them affect her rest.


    When she decided to go to sleep, she emptied her mind of everything. This helped protect her brain and allowed her to sleep better so she had more energy to deal with all kinds of problems the next day.


    Si Fan had not fully set his sights on her yet. He would only occasionally encourage others to cause trouble for her. She had more than enough time to plan. As long as she could work with Fang Yao, it would be too late by the time Si Fan realized that something was wrong.


    No matter how powerful Si Fan was, it was impossible for him to deal with the Fang family, who had a deep background. When the time came, she would definitely win.


    In the morning, Yin Xun turned on her phone and saw that there were indeed more than ten missed calls. They were all from Yin Mo.


    She washed up and put on comfortable clothes before driving to the office.


    When she arrived near the company, Yin Xun realized that there were many people holding microphones and cameras standing at the entrance. It was obvious that they were reporters.


    Yin Mo was standing beside them and looked around from time to time.


    Seeing this scene, Yin Xun immediately understood what it meant. Yin Mo was afraid that she would not help to clarify, so she called the reporters over in advance and blocked her at the entrance of the company.


    Yin Xun sneered and parked the car in a public parking lot a distance away from the company. Then, she walked over. Since Yin Mo was using a forceful method to make her clarify Si Fan¡¯s case, she would go along with her wishes.


    However, she would give no guarantee that she would follow Yin Mo¡¯s plans.


    Yin Xun walked toward the company calmly. Yin Mo was the first to see her. She quickly signaled to the reporter beside her. The reporter immediately understood and ran toward Yin Xun.


    ¡°Miss Yin Xun, the day before yesterday, Mr. Si Fan and Mr. Xing Cheng played a prank on you, but in the end, they accidentally caused a misunderstanding, and they were taken away by the police. This matter has blown up to great proportions, and Si Fan¡¯s side has already refuted the rumors. They said that it was just a misunderstanding. As he is essentially your brother-in-law, do you want to say something?¡±


    The reporters stood in front of Yin Xun. Without getting Yin Xun¡¯s approval in advance, they took out their microphones and started interviewing her.


    Yin Xun stopped in her tracks. When she saw a photographer taking photos of her, she was stunned for a moment before asking carefully, ¡°Um, you¡¯re reporters, right?¡±


    ¡°Yes, we are professional reporters. This is my work pass.¡± The reporter took out his ID and handed it to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun nodded and looked around. There were a few reporters beside her who had already picked up their microphones and were waiting for her to speak.


    Seeing that things had reached this point, Yin Xun sighed and pretended to sob in fear. ¡°Can I tell the truth? Will there be retaliation if I say it?¡±

 Chapter 69 - 69 Yin Mo Stealing Information

    69 Yin Mo Stealing Information


    ¡°We are in a society governed by law. How could there be retaliation for this?¡± The reporter smiled as he comforted Yin Xun. ¡°Miss Yin, we understood a little before we came here. This misunderstanding started with Mr. Xing Cheng trying to play a prank on you. It is said that Mr. Si Fan did not know about it at that time. So you have misunderstood him. Is there anything that you want to explain?¡±


    Yin Xun frowned slightly and started to blame herself. ¡°It¡¯s all my fault. At that time, I thought that something bad would happen to my sister, so I called the police without thinking. I made a big fool of myself.¡±


    ¡°So you¡¯re here to blame me too? My sister has already lost her temper with me because of this. I recognize my mistake, so I would like to solemnly apologize to Mr. Si Fan and my sister. I was rash this time. I don¡¯t dare to say too much, or my sister will blame me again.¡±


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, she raised his head and looked in Yin Mo¡¯s direction. However, Yin Mo, who had been standing opposite her just now, had already disappeared. Yin Xun immediately narrowed her eyes.


    !!


    ¡°No, no, no. Miss Yin, don¡¯t misunderstand.¡± The reporter quickly explained, ¡°In order to save your younger sister, you mustered the courage to meet the kidnappers alone. You are simply an exceptionally good older sister.¡±


    ¡°We just want you to explain the misunderstanding that day. Although Mr. Si Fan has refuted the rumors, there are still people who are making a big fuss about this matter. As the media, we just want to show the truth to the audience.¡±


    ¡°Is that so? Sure.¡± Yin Xun nodded and took out her phone. She found the recording of the call that day and played it in front of the reporters.


    The words on the phone were transmitted through the phone. The man¡¯s rough voice threatened Yin Xun. Most importantly, Yin Mo¡¯s cry for help was also heard.


    After hearing this, Yin Xun did not need to explain further. Just based on this recording, everyone knew that what happened that day was not as simple as Si Fan had claimed.


    ¡°It turns out that your sister was also involved in all of this. She relied on your love for her and used this to cooperate with others to lie to you. Then, you went to save her. Because you called the police, you were even blamed by her!¡± The reporter summarized the entire situation.


    ¡°Sigh, actually, it¡¯s all my fault. If only I had figured things out first, I wouldn¡¯t have made such a big mistake.¡± Yin Xun was dejected. Then, she covered his face with her hands. Her body trembled slightly as if she was crying.


    She pretended to be pitiful on the surface, but Yin Xun was sneering in his heart. Playing the plain, innocent girl was the best way to deal with the Saintess. While pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy, she could also shift the conflict to others.


    As expected, the reporters present began to sympathize with her after hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    Although they were hired by Yin Mo to interview Yin Xun to refute the rumors, what Yin Xun said was very shocking. The second daughter of the wealthy Yin family actually colluded with another man to bully her sister. Tomorrow¡¯s headlines would appear again.


    The reporters surrounded Yin Xun for a while more. Yin Xun pretended to be aggrieved and spoke up for Yin Mo and Si Fan. This gave the reporters more space to make a fuss.


    After the reporters left, Yin Xun¡¯s expression turned cold as she walked into the company building.


    She walked to the elevator. When the elevator came down, Yin Mo walked out.


    ¡°Sister¡­¡± When Yin Mo saw Yin Xun, she was shocked. Even her body trembled slightly, and she looked very flustered.


    ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Yin Xun asked her in a deep voice.


    Yin Mo looked around and stuttered, ¡°I just came to the office to see if Dad is around. I have something to ask him, but now that everything is fine¡­ Sister, I¡¯ll leave first.¡±


    After Yin Mo finished speaking, she did not wait for Yin Xun¡¯s reaction and quickly left with her head lowered.


    Looking at her panicked back, Yin Xun walked into the elevator thoughtfully.


    After reaching the office, the first thing Yin Xun did was turn on the computer to look at the surveillance camera. She had a habit of installing surveillance cameras in her territory, especially those that were pinhole-shaped. This way, she would not be discovered by others and she could monitor the surroundings at any time.


    When she turned on the monitor, she sped up to see how Yin Mo was doing while she was away from the office.


    There was no one on the screen until the time she arrived for work this morning. Yin Mo¡¯s figure suddenly appeared on the screen.


    Yin Mo was seen rummaging through the desk furtively and taking out a pocket camera to take some photos. After she was done, she tidied up and left.


    ¡°As I thought,¡± Yin Xun whispered.


    No wonder Yin Mo looked so nervous just now. It turned out that she had just done something bad. She had opened the documents on the table. It was a collaboration project.

 Chapter 70 - 70 Caught Up With The Company

    70 Caught Up With The Company


    A few days ago, she had intervened in the Donggang City project. Back then, Yin Cheng told her to give another project to Si Fan. she had helped Si Fan choose this one.


    Yin Xun originally wanted to give this to Si Fan at some point in the next two days, but she did not expect Yin Mo to beat her to it.


    Yin Xun knew what Yin Mo was doing when she secretly took photos. Si Fan must have instructed her to come and take the opportunity to sell important information. After all, there were many people watching the Yin family¡¯s project. This business document could be sold for a lot of money.


    With Yin Mo¡¯s brain, she definitely would not be able to think of this. Other than Si Fan, there was no one else. However, this silly sister of hers was probably so nervous that her eyes could not function. Si Fan¡¯s name was written on this document.


    Yin Xun smiled. This was good too. It saved her the trouble of personally looking for Si Fan. This was equivalent to Yin Mo helping her.


    Yin Xun walked to the passcode box at the side and placed all the important documents inside. She took out the documents and made a copy of the video of Yin Mo¡¯s figure. Only then did she leave the office and walk toward Yin Cheng¡¯s office.


    ¡°Xun, you came at the right time. Quickly tell Daddy what¡¯s going on between the two of you. I¡¯ve asked your sister, and she said that it¡¯s all a misunderstanding, but I know your sister¡¯s personality. Even if a criminal puts a gun to her head, she will only think that they are joking.¡±


    When Yin Cheng saw Yin Xun, he quickly pulled her to the sofa and sat her down. Then, he asked her questions anxiously.


    ¡°Dad, I can¡¯t talk about this. You should decide for yourself.¡± Yin Xun told Yin Cheng about what happened that day in detail. She did not exaggerate at all and played the recording.


    ¡°It¡¯s that brat Xing Cheng again!¡± After Yin Cheng heard this, he slammed the sofa with a dark expression and said, ¡°I knew he wasn¡¯t a good person. I¡¯ve told Lil Mo countless times to stay away from Xing Cheng, but she didn¡¯t listen. She even went so far as to scheme against you.¡±


    Yin Cheng fumed angrily and turned to get his phone.


    ¡°Dad, what are you going to do?¡± Yin Xun hurriedly asked.


    Yin Cheng said fiercely, ¡°Let your sister come back and apologize to you. You risked your life to save her. Even if this is a misunderstanding, what if you met a real kidnapper?¡±


    Yin Xun quickly pulled him back and said, ¡°Dad, this matter is over. Let¡¯s forget it. Yin Mo even called me last night. Not only does she think she did nothing wrong, but she also thinks that I should have agreed to Xing Cheng¡¯s pursuit and gotten together with him. She persuaded me for a long time last night.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s also this¡­¡± Yin Xun showed Yin Cheng the surveillance video that she had just copied. Yin Cheng saw what Yin Mo had done secretly.


    ¡°Dad, I know you dote on her, so I was just joking when I said that I wouldn¡¯t let her come to the company. But as you can see, she¡¯s getting bolder and bolder. She doesn¡¯t just run her mouth anymore. She even dares to come to the company to secretly take photos.¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Mo in the video and was so angry that his face turned red.


    ¡°Looks like I¡¯ve really spoiled her too much. She even dares to steal our family¡¯s information! Call her immediately and ask her to come back!¡±


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t be anxious. I was the one who wanted to give this information to Si Fan in the first place, so it¡¯s fine.¡± Yin Xun stopped Yin Cheng, who was about to smoke from anger. She smiled and said, ¡°But in order to prevent other information from being leaked in the future, it¡¯s better for Yin Mo not to come to the company again.¡±


    ¡°Indeed. I¡¯ll talk to the security guard about this later. Don¡¯t let her in again.¡± Just as Yin Cheng finished speaking, the receptionist suddenly called. He took a deep breath before answering.


    ¡°Director Yin, may I know if Miss is with you?¡± The receptionist asked respectfully.


    Yin Cheng handed the phone to Yin Xun. ¡°Xun, it¡¯s for you.¡±


    ¡°What is it?¡± Yin Xun took the phone and asked.


    ¡°President Yin, there is a Mr. Xing who said that he wants to see you. He said that he is a friend of yours and Second Miss.¡± The receptionist¡¯s voice was filled with envy as she said, ¡°Mr. Xing also brought two bodyguards with him. They each carried a large bouquet of roses and many other gifts. They all look like branded goods¡­¡±


    ¡°Mr. Xing? Is his name Xing Cheng?¡± Yin Xun raised his eyebrows and asked.


    ¡°Yes, President Yin. He wants to go up to look for you. Do you want him to go up?¡± The receptionist smiled while asking.


    Yin Xun glanced at Yin Cheng. The moment Yin Cheng heard that the person who came was Xing Cheng, his expression immediately darkened. Then, he heard that he actually wanted to come up to look for Yin Xun.


    Yin Cheng had yet to settle the score with him for what Xing Cheng had done that day. He did not expect Xing Cheng to take the initiative to look for him now. Yin Cheng said in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t let him come up. Let him wait for me downstairs.¡±


    As he spoke, Yin Cheng stood up and prepared to walk out.

 Chapter 71 - 71 He’s Not A Decent Person

    71 He¡¯s Not A Decent Person


    ¡°Hey, Dad, wait! You don¡¯t have to worry about this. I have my ways about it.¡± Yin Xun stopped him and quickly said to the receptionist, ¡°Tell him that I¡¯m busy. And tell him to take everything away. Remember, if he tries to get close to you, stay away from him. The further the better. And don¡¯t talk to him too much.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± The receptionist was a little confused. After that, she seemed to understand and quickly promised, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, President Yin. He is your suitor. We know that we have to keep our distance. We will not overstep our boundaries.¡±


    The receptionist misunderstood that Yin Xun was warning them not to make a move on her man.


    Yin Xun explained helplessly, ¡°That¡¯s not what I meant. What are you thinking? I¡¯ll tell you secretly, but don¡¯t tell anyone else.¡±


    !!


    Yin Xun lowered her voice and said, ¡°I heard from others that he¡¯s a rapist who specializes in forcing beautiful girls to sleep with him¡­¡±


    The receptionist hung up the phone in horror. Then, when she saw Xing Cheng looking in her direction, she retreated in fear until she was behind the counter. Only then did she look at Xing Cheng warily.


    However, Xing Cheng did not notice the actions of the young lady at the front desk at all. At this moment, he was still thinking about how to attract Yin Xun¡¯s attention when he saw her later. He would then explain what happened that day and pursue Yin Xun.


    After all, no girl could resist the temptation of so many roses. He was the most dazzling person on the entire first floor at this moment. All the young ladies were looking at him shyly. Xing Cheng smiled at those young ladies who all thought he was quite handsome. Seeing the young ladies blush, he felt even smugger.


    He had come to Yin Xun¡¯s company to pursue her with such fanfare. Even if Yin Xun rejected him, it did not matter. In the future, all the employees in the company would know that he was pursuing Yin Xun. As long as he insisted on coming every day, slowly, those people would subconsciously think that Yin Xun was dating him.


    When that happens, the time would be ripe. He would force himself on her. After all, it was normal for intimate things to happen between boyfriend and girlfriend. Presumably, Yin Xun would not dare to say anything at that time. After all, if she dared to say that she had nothing to do with him, the rumors would crush her.


    She would have no choice but to choose to be with him. When the time came, it would be easy for him to control Yin Xun.


    ¡°Mr. Xing, I¡¯m sorry. Please take your gift back.¡± After the receptionist hung up the phone, she hid behind the counter and spoke to Xing Cheng.


    Although she was very afraid in her heart, she still maintained her professional smile. ¡°Our President Yin is very busy right now. She does not have time to meet you.¡±


    Hearing the receptionist¡¯s words, Xing Cheng was stunned for a moment, and his expression immediately darkened.


    The last time Yin Xun called the police, he did not hold it against him. This time, he had taken the initiative to lower his status to look for Yin Xun, wanting to be on good terms with her. However, he did not expect Yin Xun to refuse to see him.


    He had dominated the field of love for so many years, and women glued themselves to him. He had never been so serious with a particular woman before. Yin Xun was the first and only woman who did not give him due respect!


    Having never been humiliated by a woman before, he felt very embarrassed now However, he could not lose his temper because he had come with a mission.


    Thinking of Si Fan¡¯s words, he could only suppress his displeasure. Then, he continued to maintain a handsome smile and said, ¡°Then how long will Lil Xunxun be busy? No matter how busy she is, I will wait for her.¡±


    ¡°Oh right, has she eaten breakfast? If she hasn¡¯t, I¡¯ll go prepare something for her. I know her well. She forgets to eat when she¡¯s busy with work. It¡¯s so worrying.¡±


    Xing Cheng pretended to be very intimate with Yin Xun and said something that made people misunderstand.


    The receptionist looked at Xing Cheng. If not for Yin Xun¡¯s instructions just now, she would have thought that Xing Cheng and Yin Xun were actually close. Now, she knew that Xing Cheng was just lustful and had ulterior motives for Yin Xun.


    This man bullied other girls just because he had a strong background and even did disgusting things. Bah, how unlucky.


    ¡°Mr. Xing, our CEO Yin has an assistant to take care of her. You don¡¯t have to worry about her at all. Moreover, didn¡¯t you say that she won¡¯t care about anything once she gets busy? I personally suggest that you don¡¯t wait for her. You can go back and contact her on the phone.¡±


    The receptionist kept smiling at Xing Cheng on the surface, but in her heart, she was already scolding Xing Cheng¡¯s ancestors.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. You¡¯re quite smart.¡± Xing Cheng smiled at the receptionist and said, ¡°In that case, help me send these flowers and gifts to her later.¡±

 Chapter 72 - 72 Encounter With A Ruffian

    72 Encounter With A Ruffian


    Xing Cheng placed the roses he and his bodyguards¡¯ were carrying on the counter, as well as the big gift box he was holding.


    ¡°Mr. Xing, perhaps I did not make myself clear just now. Our President Yin does not want any gifts, so please take these things back!¡± The receptionist saw Xing Cheng approaching the counter, and she immediately hid to the side as if she was facing a great enemy.


    Only then did Xing Cheng notice that something was wrong with the receptionist. He looked at the receptionist and was puzzled. Could it be that Yin Xun was so fierce that even the receptionist of the company was terrified of her?


    When he thought about it, Yin Xun was completely different from other girls. She was not gentle or considerate at all, like a tomboy. She was clearly good-looking and lively, but why was her personality so bad?


    ¡°Forget it. Since that¡¯s the case, I won¡¯t make things difficult for you. It¡¯s too troublesome for me to bring these flowers with me. I¡¯ll just give them to you. Help me tell Lil Xunxun that she can tell me if she needs anything.¡± Xing Cheng felt rather helpless. Seeing that he really could not see Yin Xun, he planned to leave first.


    The gift box was easy to carry, so he took it with him. As for the flowers, they were expensive and worthless to him. It would be embarrassing to take them out again. After thinking about it, he decided to leave them here.


    ¡°If Lil Xunxun doesn¡¯t want them, then these flowers are for you. You can split it among yourselves. I know how little girls love roses,¡± Xing Cheng said as he glanced at a young girl who had been staring at him.


    This time, he left with his bodyguards before the receptionist could reject him.


    The moment he left, the other female colleagues surrounded the receptionist. They looked at the roses on the desk and were extremely envious. ¡°He is indeed a young master. He¡¯s so rich. He threw away such expensive flowers just like that. President Yin, do you want them or not? If you don¡¯t want them, then we can¡­¡±


    ¡°What can I do? No one can take these flowers!¡± The receptionist glanced at the door and confirmed that Xing Cheng had left. Then, she said with lingering fear, ¡°Let me tell you, everyone, you have to be careful. He¡­¡±


    The receptionist called all the female colleagues over and instructed them in a low voice, ¡°Although he looks so good on the surface, he¡¯s actually done a lot of illegal things behind the scenes. However, there¡¯s someone backing him, so no one can stop him. I heard that he specializes in stalking beautiful girls and tricking them into sleeping with him¡­¡±


    After hearing what the receptionist said, everyone revealed terrified expressions.


    ¡°Oh my god, this is too scary!¡±


    The receptionist did not even touch the flowers. She called the security guards over and asked them to throw the flowers away. At the same time, she reminded the guard to strengthen the company¡¯s security and not let bad people slip in.


    Yin Xun finished her work. When she came down from upstairs, the receptionist ran over stealthily to remind her, ¡°President Yin, when Mr. Xing left, his expression did not look too good. You have to be careful when you go to work for the next few days.¡±


    The receptionist was worried that Yin Xun would be hated by Xing Cheng.


    ¡°Alright, I understand. Thank you. You have to be careful too.¡± Yin Xun smiled and agreed. At the same time, she instructed the receptionist to take care.


    After leaving the office, Yin Xun walked toward her car.


    In the morning, because of the reporters, she had parked her car far away. Now, she had to walk all the way over. Yin Xun, who was already tired, was in an even worse mood now.


    Yin Xun left early. It was not time to get off work yet, so the parking spot was a little remote. There was no one nearby. Yin Xun took out her car keys as she walked.


    However, before she could find her keys, two burly men suddenly appeared from the side and blocked her path.


    ¡°Little beauty, why are you alone? Are you afraid? Why don¡¯t you come and play with me?¡± The burly man revealed a wretched smile and slowly approached Yin Xun.


    She did not expect her luck to be so rotten today. First, it was Yin Mo, then Xing Cheng, and now these two unfamiliar men. She felt that she had to go to the temple to offer incense when she had time.


    Yin Xun quickly observed his surroundings. Other than the parked cars, there was no one else around. It was useless to call out now.


    ¡°Yo, little beauty, you¡¯re so calm. Are you scared silly or is this a normal occurrence for you?¡± The burly man standing in front of Yin Xun smiled and walked forward. He reached out to grab Yin Xun¡¯s arm.


    Yin Xun reacted quickly. She dodged to one side and kicked the burly man below the belt. She used all her strength in the kick.

 Chapter 73 - 73 Quick-Witted Call For Help

    73 Quick-Witted Call For Help


    The burly man did not expect Yin Xun to be so ruthless. The pain was so great that he immediately fell to the ground. He covered his groin and cried for his parents. When the other man saw this, he knew that he could not underestimate Yin Xun. He cautiously walked forward and grabbed Yin Xun¡¯s arm.


    ¡°Let go!¡± The burly man was too strong. Yin Xun could not break free and was lifted up by the big man.


    ¡°Who are you? Why are you capturing me?¡± Yin Xun wanted to stall for time or try to understand the situation first.


    Although she was very nervous, she knew that it was useless to be nervous. At this moment, she had to calm down. Panic could easily ruin things.


    !!


    ¡°What are we doing? We¡¯re here to capture a little girl like you. What do you think we¡¯re going to do? You don¡¯t have to think to know.¡± The burly man did not bother to explain. Instead, he smiled wretchedly to scare Yin Xun.


    ¡°You want money, you want people, or someone sent you here. There must be something.¡± Yin Xun was dragged to the side by the burly man. She continued to remain calm ask she asked questions.


    This time, the burly man did not reply. At this moment, a car drove over and stopped near them.


    The burly man looked at the car and said to Yin Xun with a smile, ¡°B*tch, you¡¯re quite powerful. You actually had the guts to hit my brother. We had planned to be gentle with you, but now it seems that we can¡¯t. You asked for it.¡±


    With that, he carried Yin Xun and walked toward the car.


    Seeing that she could not break free, Yin Xun quickly thought about how to escape. She knew that once she got into that car, she would be finished.


    It was useless to call for help. She could not call the police in her current state. Her hand was grabbed and she could not move. When she saw the car beside her, she immediately thought of a solution. She raised her leg and kicked the car without hesitation.


    Cars had anti-theft systems, and when she kicked the vehicle, the alarms went off. One car reacted, and the others were affected. For a moment, multiple alarms went off in the parking lot.


    The burly man saw that something was wrong and tried to walk faster.


    When the first man, who was lying on the ground crying in pain, heard the car alarm, he endured the pain and got up to his feet. He limped toward the car.


    The driver in the car was also anxious. He opened the window and urged, ¡°Hurry up. We¡¯ll be finished if someone comes!¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a security guard¡¯s uniform rushed out of the building nearby. He was holding an electric baton in his hand as he ran and shouted, ¡°Those people over there, what are you doing? Stop!¡±


    When Yin Xun saw that someone had come, she took the opportunity when the burly man was not paying attention to bite the hand that was grabbing her. The bite was so vicious that the man¡¯s arm bled. The smell of blood instantly filled her mouth, and Yin Xun almost vomited from disgust.


    The burly man let go of Yin Xun in pain. Yin Xun seized the opportunity and ran to the side. The burly man tried to grab Yin Xun again, but he realized that Yin Xun had already escaped.


    Seeing that the security guards were about to come over, the burly man had no choice but to run to the car and escape.


    ¡°Young lady, are you alright? Who are they?¡± The security guard walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and asked with concern.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. They¡¯re human traffickers. Big Brother, are there any surveillance cameras nearby?¡± Yin Xun tidied her clothes and took out her phone to call the police.


    When the security guard heard what she said, he exclaimed in frustration, ¡°Human traffickers! They¡¯ve got some nerve to snatch people right off the streets! I was just taking a short break. I never expected such a thing to happen. What a pity that I didn¡¯t catch them! But don¡¯t worry, there are surveillance cameras nearby.¡±


    After saying that, the security guard seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He slapped his forehead and said, ¡°But the surveillance cameras around here are a little old. I can only see the general surroundings clearly, but I won¡¯t be able to see the person¡¯s exact appearance and license plate. That¡¯s a shame.¡±


    Yin Xun said nonchalantly, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. As long as I can see it, it¡¯s fine. I¡¯ve memorized the license plate. I can call the police.¡±


    As she spoke, Yin Xun called the police and told them in detail what had just happened and the location. All that was left was to wait for the police to investigate.


    The police arrived quickly. The call had only finished a few minutes ago when the police car arrived.


    Yin Xun described the license plate number and the appearance of the two men to the police in detail. After that, the police told her to go home first. They then drove the police car in the direction where the burly man had escaped.


    ¡°Thank you for just now.¡± Yin Xun thanked the security guard.


    Although it was the security guard¡¯s negligence that caused the accident in the parking lot, in the end, he saved her life. If the security guard had not chosen to come out and check just now, she might have lost her life.

 Chapter 74 - 74 I’ll Treat You To A Meal

    74 I¡¯ll Treat You To A Meal


    ¡°I should be the one apologizing. It¡¯s my fault for leaving my post. But don¡¯t worry, Miss. You¡¯ve provided such detailed information. The police will definitely catch them soon,¡± the security guard said embarrassedly.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Yin Xun nodded, said goodbye to the security guard, and drove away.


    After leaving the parking lot, Yin Xun called Mary and asked her to hire two female security guards for her. After that, she rushed back to the villa in the suburbs.


    She went home to wash up. The burly man who had grabbed her was so strong that his grip bruised her wrist. Yin Xun wanted to look for medicine to reduce the swelling but realized that she had not prepared a first aid kit.


    !!


    She had no choice but to go to the fridge to get an ice cube for the bruise. As she applied the ice to it, she sorted out the online planning. She wanted to pull Fang Yao over to work with her as soon as possible.


    The two burly men who had assaulted her ran away very quickly. She thought that the police would have to investigate for a few days at least. To her surprise, after only two hours, the police called.


    The police said that they had caught the two kidnappers. At the same time, they also found out who was behind the attack and asked Yin Xun to give a statement. Yin Xun changed into comfortable clothes before driving to the police station.


    When she passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, she happened to see Fang Yao getting out of the car in the courtyard. Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up and she rolled down the car window to greet him. ¡°Mr. Fang, you just got off work too!¡±


    Yin Xun called out passionately. As long as Fang Yao was not her business partner yet, she would not relax in her efforts to get close to him.


    Fang Yao turned around when he heard the voice and smiled. ¡°Are you going to work?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m going to the police station. Something happened just now, so I¡¯m going to settle it. Mr. Fang, I¡¯ve already written the proposal. Do you have time tonight? I¡¯ll treat you to a meal at my house and show you the proposal.¡±


    When he heard the mention of a meal, the corners of Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched, but he quickly regained his composure.


    He said, ¡°Why don¡¯t you come to my house for dinner instead? The butler just bought a lot of vegetables.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll look for you after I¡¯m done. See you tonight.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking to Fang Yao, she drove straight to the police station.


    When she arrived at the police station, Yin Xun was led to the interrogation room by the police. To her surprise, Xing Cheng was inside.


    She was not surprised that Xing Cheng would be at the police station. What surprised her was that Xing Cheng was actually with the two burly men who tried to capture her.


    ¡°Hello, I am the officer in charge of this incident. My surname is Chen.¡± Officer Chen introduced himself to Yin Xun before he asked, ¡°Miss Yin, take a look and see if the two kidnappers who arrested you are these men.¡±


    Officer Chen pointed at the two burly men in the room and asked Yin Xun.


    At this moment, Xing Cheng and the two burly men were handcuffed and standing in a glass room. Yin Xun what the room was. This kind of glass was one-way. One could see in from the outside, but one could not see out from the inside.


    She had seen it in television dramas. Witnesses could stand outside and identify the criminals inside without worrying that the criminals would find out and take revenge.


    ¡°It¡¯s them.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    ¡°It¡¯s like this. According to them, they were paid to do this. Someone instructed them to pretend to be kidnappers and scare you. After scaring you to tears, some people behind them will act as heroes to save you.¡± At this point, even Officer Chen felt helpless and looked at the three people in the room as if they were idiots.


    ¡°So, Xing Cheng instructed them to do this?¡± Looking at the people in the room, Yin Xun immediately understood the whole story.


    Officer Chen nodded and said, ¡°We called you over to confirm this with you. Since it¡¯s indeed them, please wait for the results.¡±


    As the two of them were talking, they saw Xing Cheng making a fuss inside. Later, two police officers inside said something they could not hear. It made Xing Cheng quieten down, but his expression was still unsatisfied.


    When he calmed down, one of the policemen walked out of the room.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Officer Chen asked.


    ¡°Boss, Xing Cheng is making a fuss inside and wants to see Miss Yin Xun. Does Miss Yin Xun want to see him?¡± On the surface, the police officer was asking Officer Chen, but his eyes were looking at Yin Xun.


    ¡°Can I refuse?¡± Yin Xun asked Officer Chen.


    Now was not the time. When Wang Ran was ready, she would come to see Xing Cheng and make a big scene.


    Officer Chen smiled and said, ¡°Of course. We won¡¯t force the victim to do anything. We called you here just to understand the specifics of the situation and have you identify the culprits. Now that it¡¯s confirmed, leave the rest to us. You can leave now. We¡¯ll inform you when the investigation is done.¡±

 Chapter 75 - 75 The Young Master Doesn’t Eat Sweet Food

    75 The Young Master Doesn¡¯t Eat Sweet Food


    ¡°Alright then, thank you.¡± Yin Xun thanked the police and left the police station.


    After leaving, Yin Xun called her lawyer. ¡°The time has come. Let¡¯s do it now.¡±


    The lawyer smiled and agreed. ¡°Okay.¡±


    ¡°Report to me if anything happens. Also, find a few more reporters to spread this matter,¡± Yin Xun instructed before hanging up and preparing to drive home.


    Before she went back, she remembered that she had to go to Fang Yao¡¯s house for dinner tonight to discuss the collaboration, so she drove to the food street first.


    When Yin Xun got home, the sky was already dark, and the lights had already been turned on next door.


    Originally, she planned to go over directly, but on the way, she thought about it carefully. This was not appropriate. She was the one who wanted to collaborate with Fang Yao, but she was about to go to Fang Yao¡¯s house to eat. It was not good to go empty-handed.


    She had just gone to the boutique and bought a few exquisite-looking packages. She also went to the dessert shop to buy some sweets and snacks. She used the gift box to wrap the snacks properly. It was a neat hand gift to show her sincerity.


    Yin Xun quickly walked next door and was about to ring the doorbell when the door opened before she could raise her hand. The kind-looking butler was standing at the door.


    ¡°Miss Yin is here. Come in quickly.¡± The butler warmly invited Yin Xun into the house.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, sorry to disturb you,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    ¡°Not at all, not at all. We¡¯re neighbors, so we should get together more often. Moreover, you and Young Master are good friends, so you should drop by more often in the future.¡± The butler chuckled, looking quite happy.


    The butler led the way and they arrived at the living room. Fang Yao was on the phone not far away. When he saw Yin Xun enter, he smiled and nodded at her before continuing with his call.


    ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master has something on right now, so please have a seat first. Wait for him for a while. He will be done soon.¡± The butler invited Yin Xun to sit on the sofa, and before Yin Xun could say anything, he brought over a cup of milk tea.


    ¡°I heard that young ladies like milk tea, so I tried to make a cup myself. Give it a try and see how it tastes.¡± The butler handed the milk tea to Yin Xun, looking forward to Yin Xun¡¯s comments.


    Yin Xun took it with both hands and said, ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler.¡±


    After thanking him, Yin Xun took a sip. It was fragrant and mellow in her mouth. It was sweet but not greasy. There was also a little sour fruit inside. It tasted a little better than the beverages she bought outside.


    She smiled and said, ¡°The taste is really good. It¡¯s so good that you can open your own milk tea shop.¡±


    ¡°Ah, Miss Yin is really good at praising people.¡± After being praised by Yin Xun, the butler had a bright smile on his face, but he kept saying some embarrassing and humble words. ¡°Miss Yin can come and look for our Young Master anytime in the future. I also know how to make all kinds of delicious food. Some day, I will let you try them.¡±


    When Yin Xun saw that the butler was done talking, she took out the gift box she had brought. She had brought a total of two boxes. One was big and contained candy and biscuits. The other was small and only contained biscuits.


    Old people should not eat candy. The biscuits did not contain sugar, so it was suitable for people of the butler¡¯s age.


    She took out a small one and handed it to the butler. ¡°Uncle Butler, this is my gift for you. Try it.¡±


    The butler froze for a moment before he quickly took it. ¡°I did not expect that even I would receive a gift. Thank you, Miss Yin.¡±


    He opened the packaging and took out a piece of biscuit to have a taste. He said, ¡°Miss Yin, you made all of this personally, right? It is really quite delicious, and they¡¯re just as good as commercial ones!¡±


    As the butler said this, Fang Yao had just finished his call and walked in.


    Seeing that he was done, Yin Xun quickly stood up and handed the gift to Fang Yao. ¡°Mr. Fang, this is my gift to you. Try it. I hope you like it.¡±


    The butler glanced at Fang Yao and said faintly, ¡°Aren¡¯t you already friends? Why are you still calling me that?¡±


    Fang Yao took Yin Xun¡¯s gift and nodded cooperatively. ¡°Just call me by my name from now on.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright, you can just call me by my name too.¡±


    ¡°Sigh, that¡¯s right. We¡¯re all friends here. Why are you so distant?¡± The butler was very pleased with their reaction.


    Fang Yao looked at the fancy box in his hand and opened it. He took out a piece of candy and placed it in his mouth. His expression darkened.


    The butler looked at Fang Yao and then looked at Yin Xun. He was a little awkward as he said, ¡°That, Miss Yin, actually, our Young Master does not like sweet food¡­¡±

 Chapter 76 - 76 Matchmaking The Two Of Them

    76 Matchmaking The Two Of Them


    He did not like sweet food? Yin Xun was slightly stunned. Only then did she remember that she had overlooked something.


    Back then, she had asked the butler a lot of questions about what Fang Yao liked, but she did not ask him what he did not like. She had even poured fruit tea for Fang Yao that day. She saw that Fang Yao had drunk a lot and thought that he would not reject sweet food.


    After the butler finished speaking, Fang Yao took out another piece of candy, peeled off the wrapper, and popped it into his mouth. He said calmly, ¡°Actually, it tastes pretty good.¡±


    The butler was speechless.


    !!


    He must not have understood his Young Master well enough. He was a little awkward as he looked at Yin Xun before he said to Fang Yao, ¡°Young Master, try the biscuits that Miss Yin personally made. They are not sweet, and they are very fragrant. They are much better than the ones you could outside. I did not expect Miss Yin¡¯s culinary skills to be so good.¡±


    Hearing the words ¡®good culinary skills¡¯, Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun with a deep gaze, his eyes filled with ridicule.


    Yin Xun explained awkwardly, ¡°Actually¡­ I bought these biscuits and candy outside. Then, I repackaged them.¡±


    The butler was speechless.


    Very well, these two children were too disrespectful to him. He decided not to say anything else.


    The ice-breaking session was over. Seeing that Fang Yao was in a good mood, Yin Xun quickly took out the proposal and handed it to him. ¡°Because time is tight, I only did a rough sketch. Take a look at the problem first.¡±


    ¡°So fast?¡± Fang Yao was surprised.


    ¡°Actually, I¡¯ve been working on this proposal for a long time because I planned to find an investor from the very beginning,¡± Yin Xun explained.


    The corner of Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched. So, he had been targeted by Yin Xun from the start?


    However, to a businessman, benefits were the most important. No matter if Yin Xun deliberately approached him or if it was coincidental, as long as he did not lose money in the cooperation, there was no need for him to care.


    After all, everyone was just trying to make money.


    Fang Yao opened the folder and casually glanced at the contents. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.


    Yin Xun said that this was only a rough plan, but he realized after reading it that the plan was too detailed. It was so detailed that he already knew what to do.


    Originally, he just wanted to take a look, but at this moment, his expression became solemn. This cooperation was worth careful consideration.


    Fang Yao was about to take a closer look when the butler suddenly spoke.


    ¡°You two. Right now, no matter how important your work is, it¡¯s not as important as your health. Hurry up and eat. If there¡¯s anything, we can talk after dinner!¡±


    Although the butler decided not to speak anymore tonight, he was afraid that Fang Yao and Yin Xun would forget to eat when they were working. He immediately pulled a long face and urged them.


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun were both stunned. They looked at the butler and saw that he was looking at them with a dark expression. The two of them looked at each other and laughed.


    Fang Yao put away the proposal and said to the butler, ¡°Alright, we¡¯ll talk after eating.¡± Then, he turned to Yin Xun and asked, ¡°What do you think, Yin Xun?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded in agreement. ¡°Sure.¡±


    ¡°Young Master, is that all?¡± The butler frowned at Fang Yao with a dissatisfied expression.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Fang Yao was puzzled by the butler¡¯s behavior. He felt that ever since Yin Xun came to the house, the butler had changed.


    Sometimes, he would say things that he did not quite understand. Also, the butler would always urge him to invite Yin Xun to his house more often, as if he was actually Yin Xun¡¯s butler.


    The butler wanted to say that Fang Yao was being too distant with the way he addressed her. He looked really anxious. The Young Master could not miss out on such a good girl. However, he knew his place and could not interfere too much with the Master¡¯s life. Therefore, although the butler was anxious, he shook his head and said, ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll go prepare dinner.¡±


    When he walked into the dining room, the butler was still thinking about how to naturally matchmake the two of them.


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun looked at each other. Even Yin Xun was confused by the butler¡¯s sudden mood change.


    ¡°Let¡¯s eat first.¡± Looking at the butler¡¯s back, Fang Yao suddenly understood what the butler wanted. He smiled helplessly and invited Yin Xun to walk to the dining room.


    The two of them sat down at the dining table. The servants had already served the dishes. Yin Xun looked at the table full of delicious food and could not help but gulp.


    She did not expect Fang Yao to prepare such a sumptuous dinner. When she thought about the last time she treated Fang Yao to a meal, the difference was too great.

 Chapter 77 - 77 A Gossipy Heart At Work

    77 A Gossipy Heart At Work


    Yin Xun immediately felt ashamed. She thought that if she had the chance one day, she would invite a chef to her house and treat Fang Yao to a good meal to make up for that regretful day.


    The butler, who was standing at the side, said apologetically, ¡°Miss Yin, I am really sorry. We have prepared too little for dinner.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at the table in front of her which was almost filled to the brim and was a little speechless. Was this considered too little? If this was considered too little, then her invitation to Fang Yao that day was outright shabby.


    ¡°I¡¯ll get the kitchen to make a few more dishes immediately. Please wait a moment¡­¡± The butler continued.


    !!


    ¡°Wait!¡± Yin Xun saw that the butler had really turned around and walked toward the kitchen. She quickly stopped him. ¡°Uncle Butler, thank you for your kindness, but this is enough.¡±


    ¡°Then, Miss Yin, do you have anything that you like to eat? How about I get the kitchen to make a few dishes that you like?¡± The butler continued to offer. ¡°We are already so familiar with each other, so you must not stand on ceremony. If you want to eat anything, just say it. Coincidentally, we have a lot of dishes today.¡±


    ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler, but this is really enough.¡± Yin Xun rejected the offer with a smile.


    ¡°Alright then. Call me if you need me.¡± The butler looked regretful. ¡°I won¡¯t disturb you from dining together.¡±


    After bidding farewell to Yin Xun and Fang Yao, the butler turned around and left.


    Fang Yao had been watching the butler from the side. Seeing that he was only concerned about Yin Xun the entire time and did not ask him a single question, he could not help but feel a little helpless.


    As expected, ever since he met Yin Xun, the butler became more and more biased. His attention was focused on Yin Xun and he forgot that he was a member of the Fang family.


    After the butler disappeared, Yin Xun heaved a long sigh of relief.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. ¡°Is the butler giving you pressure?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°No, I just feel that I¡¯m too enthusiastic. It¡¯s a little difficult to refuse.¡±


    Fang Yao also smiled and nodded. ¡°From the looks of it, he must have treated you well when I wasn¡¯t at home.¡±


    ¡°Indeed, he has been very good to me! The dinner that day was even more sumptuous than today. I only ate two mouthfuls of each dish. I was full after tasting them all.¡± After saying that, Yin Xun suddenly thought of something. ¡°Oh right, that girl called Qu Lu also came that day. She said that she told your mother that you have a girlfriend. She even said that your mother would come over. What happened after that?¡±


    Yin Xun would never admit that she was into gossip. Although this matter had nothing to do with her, she was still curious. This was because, in the original novel, the author did not write much about the Fang family. It was basically just a summary.


    Fang Yao¡¯s hand, which was picking up food, paused for a moment. He looked up and saw Yin Xun¡¯s curious gaze. He covered his mouth and coughed lightly. ¡°You¡¯ll know about this in the future.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡± This meant that he did not want to say it right now. Although Yin Xun was curious, she knew that it would be impolite to ask further. After all, this was someone else¡¯s family matter.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had no intention of pursuing the matter, Fang Yao¡¯s lips curled up slightly. He said calmly, ¡°I heard you were kidnapped today. Was Xing Cheng the one who planned this kidnapping?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re really well-informed,¡± Yin Xun said in surprise.


    However, after thinking about it, she realized that it made sense. The Fang family was not an ordinary family, and she wanted to work with him. He would definitely find someone to watch over her.


    Overbearing novels were usually like this. The president of a super powerful family had spies all over the country. No matter what happened, the overbearing man would always be able to obtain accurate information, even if it was something only the dead knew. Perhaps Fang Yao had such a setting too.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t send anyone to investigate you. It just so happened that there was an old acquaintance at the police station. When I heard you say that you had something to do at the police station, I casually checked with him and found out.¡± Fang Yao seemed to have seen through Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts and explained.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Alright, she was thinking too much.


    ¡°There¡¯s one thing¡­¡± Fang Yao continued, ¡°This morning, the fire department conducted a surprise inspection. Dawn Club closed down because they failed.¡±


    ¡°Well done!¡± Yin Xun nodded with a smile. ¡°Although this matter can¡¯t have a substantial impact on Si Fan, when coupled with Xing Cheng¡¯s matter, it¡¯s enough to deal him a blow.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes were sparkling at this moment. She looked at Fang Yao and said, ¡°Xing Cheng is going to jail this time. He can forget about coming out of prison for a while. I¡¯ve already asked my lawyer to prepare evidence of his crime. Even if he can settle this matter, having a backer would be useless with such a substantial criminal case against him.¡±

 Chapter 78 - 78 Helping Yin Xun Apply Medicine

    78 Helping Yin Xun Apply Medicine


    ¡°He¡¯s one of Si Fan¡¯s assistants. As long as Si Fan has financial problems, he¡¯ll ask him for help. Now that Xing Cheng is in jail, let¡¯s try to suppress Si Fan and see how he resolves it.¡±


    ¡°If Si Fan finds out that you were the one who dealt with Xing Cheng, what do you plan to do?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and asked her.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°No, he asked for it this time. As long as I go with the flow and hand over the information to the police, the police will naturally investigate. Besides, the police will keep the identity of the informant a secret, so Si Fan won¡¯t find out about me. He will only think that something went wrong or that he was betrayed by his own people.¡±


    However, even though she said that, Yin Xun did not dare to let down her guard. She needed to pay attention to Si Fan¡¯s movements at all times to prevent herself from falling into his trap.


    Yin Xun raised her hand to pick up some food and accidentally revealed the bruise on her wrist. She was already pale to begin with, so the bruise looked shocking.


    ¡°Are you injured?¡± When Fang Yao saw this, his expression darkened. He turned around and shouted, ¡°Butler, bring the first aid kit over.¡±


    ¡°The two strong men who captured me were too strong. It¡¯s just a little bruised. There¡¯s no problem. I¡¯ve already iced them,¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    When the butler heard Fang Yao calling him and asking him to bring the first-aid kit, he thought that the two of them were discussing business and had a fight. He rushed over with the first-aid kit.


    ¡°Who¡¯s injured? Where are you hurt? Let me take a look!¡± the butler asked anxiously.


    Yin Xun was shocked by the butler¡¯s anxious look and said weakly, ¡°I¡­ actually, I¡¯m fine. I¡¯m just a little bruised.¡±


    The butler followed Yin Xun¡¯s raised hand and saw the bruise on her wrist. He immediately became even more anxious. ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why are you injured? Seriously¡­¡±


    As he spoke, he handed the first aid kit over to Fang Yao and said, ¡°Young Master, quickly help Miss Yin apply some medicine. The young lady cannot be injured, and it looks so serious too.¡±


    ¡°Me?¡± Fang Yao asked. He had wanted the butler to call the family doctor over to help Yin Xun deal with it, but he did not expect the butler to come over himself.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, Young Master. Don¡¯t tell me you want an old man like me to apply the medicine on Miss Yin? Look at my hands¡­¡± The butler raised his hand up for Fang Yao to take a look. His hand was trembling as he said, ¡°If I help Miss Yin apply the medicine like this, I might hurt her.¡±


    Fang Yao said helplessly, ¡°Butler, I remember that your hands are usually very steady. Why are you suddenly trembling?¡±


    The butler said, ¡°Young Master, you remembered wrongly. My hands have always been trembling.¡±


    Fang Yao said, ¡°You can call Doctor Pang over. He should be at home.¡±


    The butler said, ¡°Young Master, have you forgotten? Doctor Pang is on leave today. He went home to see his sick mother.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at their conversation in confusion. For a moment, she did not know what she should do. She could only explain, ¡°Actually, I¡¯m fine. I¡¯ve already applied ice on it, and it doesn¡¯t hurt very much.¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin, you don¡¯t have to be so polite. Let our Young Master help you apply the medicine. Anyway, you¡¯re friends. You don¡¯t have to be so formal.¡± The butler did not care about Fang Yao¡¯s opinion. He placed the first aid kit in front of Fang Yao before he turned around and left.


    Fang Yao was speechless. The butler¡¯s intentions were a little too obvious.


    Fang Yao opened the first aid kit and found medicine to reduce swelling and pain. Then, he walked to Yin Xun. ¡°Let me help you put on some medicine.¡±


    ¡°Okay, thank you, I guess?¡± Yin Xun was a little flattered. After all, this was the sugar daddy she wanted to pull over.


    Fang Yao¡¯s technique was very gentle. Other than a little pain at first, Yin Xun felt nothing later.


    Seeing Fang Yao applying medicine for Yin Xun, the butler, who was hiding in the room next door, smiled in satisfaction.


    This was how it should be. That was how the two of them could cultivate their relationship and have a chance to be together.


    He was lost in his thoughts when someone suddenly patted him on the back. He turned around and saw that it was Doctor Pang.


    ¡°Butler, I didn¡¯t take leave to go home. My mother just called me yesterday and scolded me. I¡¯m full of energy. Why did you tell Young Master that I took leave?¡± Doctor Pang asked aggrievedly.


    The butler frowned and looked at him resentfully as he said, ¡°Why? Can¡¯t you tell that Young Master and Miss Yin are developing a relationship? Alright, I will give you two days off. You can go out and play now.¡±


    Doctor Pang whispered, ¡°I don¡¯t want to take leave. It¡¯ll deduct my salary.¡±

 Chapter 79 - 79 Discussing Cooperation Again

    79 Discussing Cooperation Again


    The butler raised his hand and smacked Doctor Pang. He said testily, ¡°I¡¯ll compensate you, alright? Just treat it as a paid leave and leave now. But remember, don¡¯t go too far. I¡¯ll call you if anything happens. You have to guarantee that you can come back quickly. Just don¡¯t delay your work.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Doctor Pang replied with a smile and turned to leave.


    Paid leave. He could not miss such a good opportunity.


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun were completely unaware of what had happened out there. After the medicine was applied, Fang Yao took the medicine box away and the two of them continued to eat and talk.


    The food was delicious. Yin Xun ate a lot. In the end, she ate until she was full before she stopped eating.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had finished eating, Fang Yao said, ¡°Let¡¯s talk in the study.¡±


    He knew that the butler had been watching them from the room next door, so he looked to the side indifferently and said, ¡°Butler, prepare some snacks and send them to the study.¡±


    ¡°Oh, okay. I will prepare them. You go with Miss Yin quickly. You two have a good talk!¡± The butler quickly opened the door and walked out of the dining room.


    Only then did Yin Xun realize that the butler had been in the small room beside him.


    Just as they were about to walk out of the dining room, the butler suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned his head back to ask Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, how was your dinner? Are you satisfied? If you have any feedback, please tell me. Or you can tell me what you like to eat and what you don¡¯t like.¡±


    ¡°Yes, yes. These are all my favorite foods. Honestly, I¡¯m not picky at all. Thank you, Uncle Butler!¡± Yin Xun quickly replied. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. Uncle Butler was too concerned about her, which made her feel flattered.


    ¡°It¡¯s good that you like it. Since that¡¯s the case, I won¡¯t disturb you anymore.¡± The butler chuckled. ¡°Young Master, quickly go and discuss your things. I¡¯ll go prepare some snacks now.¡±


    Fang Yao led Yin Xun to the study. This time, he began to read the proposal in detail.


    Before he saw this proposal, he had always thought that Yin Xun was the kind of young lady who tried whatever came to her mind because the things she said could not be described as merely advanced. It felt more like fantasy.


    In Yin Xun¡¯s vision, one day in the future, everyone would use their phones to shop online and add each other as friends.


    However, it was something that was almost impossible. Yin Xun had written a complete proposal that contained a detailed plan of how the future would slowly develop into what she had imagined. In addition, there was also the problem of her going against the Blue Fox Internet Company. In Yin Xun¡¯s words, it was a waste of money.


    In the beginning, the two parties would develop different racing tracks, so there was no need to worry. However, after Yin Xun started working on the plan, the mobile phone business would begin to compete with the computer business for customer resources. At that time, the two of them would have a direct collision.


    Blue Fox was already a mature company with professional skills and a certain number of clients. On the other hand, Yin Xun¡¯s company had just started. If Si Fan wanted to deal with her, she would definitely lose if she only relied on the Yin family¡¯s investment.


    That was why Yin Xun looked for Fang Yao. She really liked how much money he had.


    This amount of money was not a small sum to the Yin family, but to Fang Yao, it was not worth mentioning. Although it was not difficult to invest, Fang Yao felt a little conflicted in his heart, as if he was being treated like a fool.


    After reading the entire proposal, Fang Yao looked up. He wanted to ask Yin Xun in detail, but when he looked up, he saw her chewing on a chicken rack.


    There were many other snacks in front of Yin Xun, such as preserved fruits, candied fruits, chicken feet, and so on. He had asked the butler to prepare these because the last time he went to Yin Xun¡¯s house, he saw a stock of snacks comparable to the supermarket.


    Yin Xun was eating seriously. When she saw Fang Yao suddenly raise his head to look at her, she smiled and pushed the snacks in front of him. He asked, ¡°Do you want some? They taste pretty good.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t eat snacks.¡± Fang Yao shook his head and refused. He opened the proposal and raised his doubts to Yin Xun. ¡°I know you want to pull me in to invest. You¡¯re interested in my financial resources and want to fight a financial war with Si Fan. But have you ever thought of a problem? In the early stages of this project, you¡¯re just throwing money in. You won¡¯t see any returns.¡±


    Seeing that Fang Yao was getting down to business, Yin Xun put down the snacks, took off her disposable gloves, and began to focus on the analysis with Fang Yao.


    ¡°The early stages are preparation work. We do have to invest a lot of manpower and resources in researching and developing software. I must admit that Si Fan has been running an online company for a long time. He is indeed capable. However, he has a fatal flaw, which is that his foundation is not strong enough.¡±

 Chapter 80 - 80 He Finally Agreed

    80 He Finally Agreed


    ¡°Everything he has now is given to him by the Si Family and the Yin Family. He cannot leave the Yin Family completely yet. Hence, if there is a conflict between us, the Yin Family will definitely stand on my side. Although our Yin Family is not as powerful as your Fang Family, we still have a say in the business world.¡±


    ¡°Si Fan relies on the support of various capitals. Among the few capitals that support him, there are some that are on good terms with our Yin Family. Therefore, when the time comes, I only need to pull those who support him over. His power will be greatly reduced. Capitalists work together for benefits. If they see that he is weak, they will definitely not continue to spend money on him. There¡¯s a high chance that they will withdraw the investment.¡±


    ¡°As long as the capital supporting Si Fan is withdrawn, it will be easy for us to deal with him. As long as he is no longer in our way, we will be the boss of this industry. At that time, all resources and customers will flow to us. The profits will be massive.¡±


    When it came to business, Yin Xun¡¯s expression immediately became serious. She was reasonable and clear. Other than the things that were beneficial to her, she even talked about the things they needed to pay attention to.


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes flickered. Although he did not say anything, he agreed with Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    Yin Xun was right. In terms of pumping in funds, even if Si Fan could get extra help, he could not compete with him. Fang Yao could not guarantee anything else, but he was 100% confident in money.


    At the thought of this, he was suddenly stunned. His train of thought had been taken away by Yin Xun. He had not even agreed to cooperate, but he had already regarded himself as Yin Xun¡¯s partner in advance.


    Fang Yao immediately found it funny. Yin Xun was so eloquent. It was a pity that she did not aspire to be a diplomat.


    ¡°I admit I¡¯m very interested in your plan. Since you¡¯ve already planned it in such detail and can guarantee that I won¡¯t lose much even if it fails, I agree to this collaboration,¡± Fang Yao said in a deep voice. ¡°Although we¡¯re friends now, partners should settle accounts clearly. When it comes to business, we have to follow the contract.¡±


    Seeing that Fang Yao agreed to cooperate, Yin Xun¡¯s eyes instantly lit up. She agreed happily, ¡°Alright, alright. I¡¯ll sign and abide by the contract that guarantees your interests. Don¡¯t worry, not only will I not let you incur losses, but I¡¯ll also let you earn a lot of money! In fact, I¡¯m being conservative about the profits of this project. I can guarantee that we¡¯ll be filthy rich in the end!¡±


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun had signed an unfair treaty because even if they failed, Fang Yao would not lose much. On the other hand, if Yin Xun failed, she would definitely go bankrupt.


    Fang Yao did not expect Yin Xun to be so happy. Looking at her excited expression, Fang Yao¡¯s heart warmed. He suddenly thought that even if he really failed in the end, he could use other excuses to help Yin Xun out. He would not watch Yin Xun go bankrupt. This unfair treaty was just an incentive for Yin Xun.


    After receiving Fang Yao¡¯s firm answer, Yin Xun did not stay any longer and left.


    Fang Yao sat in the study. Yin Xun¡¯s excited look was still in his mind. Her eyes were sparkling like stars, and he could not shake off the image.


    Looking at the snacks on the table, Yin Xun only ate a little. After the two of them started talking about the project, Yin Xun stopped eating, so there was still a lot left. Thinking about how serious Yin Xun was when she ate, he reached out and poked a piece of chicken covered in chili with a toothpick before putting it into his mouth.


    For some reason, Fang Yao suddenly wanted to experience what Yin Xun had done.


    However, just as he put the piece of meat into his mouth, the spiciness rushed into his throat.


    He choked and coughed. Fortunately, there was water on the table. He quickly drank it, but it seemed to be useless. He felt as if countless needles had pierced his mouth. This was only the second time he had eaten spicy food since he was young. As expected, he could not eat such things.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect her to eat such spicy food without batting an eyelid. She¡¯s indeed extraordinary.¡± Fang Yao smiled and picked up the proposal to continue reading.


    After Yin Xun returned to her house, she made a detailed plan for what to do the next day before sleeping soundly. She slept exceptionally well that night, so she woke up early the next morning.


    She did not forget that she had an important agreement with Yin Cheng today. This concerned her future development.

 Chapter 81 - 81 Who Are You Worried About?

    81 Who Are You Worried About?


    After eating some simple food, Yin Xun rushed to the company. She wanted to report to Yin Cheng as soon as possible about such an important matter as opening a company and getting the Fang family to invest.


    When she arrived at the company building, the receptionist was already standing there energetically and starting work.


    ¡°Good morning, President Yin.¡± The receptionist greeted her before walking over to Yin Xun¡¯s side. She lowered her voice as she said, ¡°President Yin, before you came, a woman came to look for you. She saw that you were not around, so she left.¡±


    ¡°A woman? What¡¯s her name?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    !!


    The receptionist shook her head. ¡°I don¡¯t know. She did not say anything, but she did not seem very friendly. She kept mumbling. She said that she would come over later. President Yin, I feel that you should be more careful recently. I don¡¯t think she looks like a good person.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I understand. Tell me when she comes back.¡± Yin Xun left after saying that.


    It was still early and Yin Cheng had not arrived yet. She sat in Yin Cheng¡¯s office for a long time before Yin Cheng opened the door, his expression tired and his hand over his eyes.


    ¡°Xun, the company¡¯s leaders only go to work at noon. I, your father, only went to bed in the early morning, and you called me over this early. If I come here so many times like this, I feel like I¡¯ll die. Girl, what is this that we can¡¯t talk about at home? Or we can talk about it later. Why do you have to call me to the office so early in the morning? I feel like you¡¯re about to become my boss.¡±


    Although Yin Cheng was complaining, he was not really dissatisfied. He looked at Yin Xun with a loving gaze. Yin Xun was a workaholic. Although it would be tiring to work with her, she was at least much better than Yin Mo. This was good for the company.


    ¡°Dad, I called you here for something very important. You can¡¯t talk about this at home. After all, there¡¯s someone in the family who only knows how to side with outsiders,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. Although she did not say who it was, Yin Cheng immediately knew.


    Yin Xun glanced at the door and continued, ¡°Dad, I want to start a company and need your investment.¡±


    ¡°Start a company?¡± Yin Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. When he saw Yin Xun¡¯s serious expression just now, he thought that something big was waiting for him. ¡°That¡¯s simple. What company do you want to start? Where do you want to start it? How much support do you need from Dad? You just have to tell me. You don¡¯t have to come to the company for such a small matter. Even if your sister finds out, it¡¯s fine. She won¡¯t fight with you for this.¡±


    ¡°Dad, let me finish first.¡± Yin Xun handed the proposal in his hand to Yin Cheng and continued, ¡°I want to start an online company. It¡¯s mainly responsible for developing software for online shopping and dating. This is the plan. Take a look first.¡±


    Yin Xun made this proposal last night. It was different from the one she had given Fang Yao. It was not as detailed.


    Yin Cheng took it and looked at it. He asked in surprise, ¡°Are you doing this because you¡¯re open-minded or because you just want to snatch Si Fan¡¯s business?¡±


    He knew about the conflict between Yin Xun and Yin Mo and Si Fan. Usually, he thought that it was just a small fight between the children. Something had happened between them, but it was nothing major. Now that he saw that Yin Xun actually wanted to open a company similar to Si Fan¡¯s, he felt that things were not that simple.


    This topic was rather sensitive, but Yin Xun was his precious daughter, so he did not care about the formalities and directly asked what he was thinking.


    ¡°Dad, although I hate Si Fan, I¡¯m not irrational enough to pay such a huge price to go against him. I¡¯ve already planned this project before I returned to the country. It has nothing to do with Si Fan.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s expression was indifferent.


    Yin Cheng looked at the proposal in detail and said awkwardly, ¡°Girl, I¡¯m in real estate. I don¡¯t know much about online companies. If you just want to start a company for practice, you can start one that overlaps with our family¡¯s business. That way, I can help you. What online company do you want to start now? Even if I want to help you, I can¡¯t.¡±


    Although Yin Cheng seemed to be thinking for Yin Xun, Yin Xun quickly understood what he meant.


    She looked into Yin Cheng¡¯s eyes and asked sternly, ¡°Dad, tell me the truth. Are you making things difficult for me because you can¡¯t help me, or are you worried that Yin Mo will misunderstand that I¡¯m going against her?¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s expression was a little awkward as he said, ¡°Actually, both. Xun, we¡¯re family after all. Even if Si Fan isn¡¯t likable, he¡¯s still your sister¡¯s boyfriend. If nothing goes wrong, he¡¯ll eventually become half a member of the Yin family. Isn¡¯t it a little inappropriate for us to do this now?¡±

 Chapter 82 - 82 The Investor Is A Big Boss

    82 The Investor Is A Big Boss


    Afraid that Yin Xun would be angry, Yin Cheng quickly added, ¡°Of course, if you really want to do this, I will support you even if I don¡¯t understand the details. After all, you are my family. Of course, I have to prioritize you!¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng was indeed a businessman. His words really offended no one.


    However, when Yin Cheng said that he would fully support her, Yin Xun still smiled. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I just want to ask you for financial support. You don¡¯t have to worry about the rest. I can settle it myself.¡±


    !!


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Cheng was still a little worried. ¡°Although Si Fan is your sister¡¯s boyfriend, the business world is like a battlefield. He might not give in to you. His online company is already very mature. If he finds out that you¡¯ve become his competitor, he¡¯ll definitely deal with you and won¡¯t show mercy¡­¡±


    ¡°Dad!¡± Yin Xun interrupted Yin Cheng. Since Yin Cheng had agreed to let her start a company, he was only worried about her.


    Yin Xun knew all this, so she quickly comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not stupid. I won¡¯t fight an unprepared battle. I¡¯ve already pulled in investments for this project, and you definitely won¡¯t be able to guess who the other party is.¡±


    ¡°Investments?¡± Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Cheng instantly became vigilant. ¡°Who invested in it? Let me remind you first, these people are all old foxes. You¡¯ve just entered society and can¡¯t beat them. You have to be careful not to be cheated. Moreover, your company hasn¡¯t even taken shape yet, and they dare to invest. This is too abnormal.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°It¡¯s Fang Yao.¡±


    ¡°Look, I told you he¡¯s not a good person. He must have a motive for investing in you. He¡­¡± Yin Cheng suddenly changed tack. He looked at Yin Xun in shock and asked, ¡°Who did you say?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Fang Yao.¡±


    ¡°The young master of the Fang family, Fang Yao?¡± Yin Cheng was still in disbelief.


    Yin Xun nodded and felt a little helpless. Yin Cheng was already like this when he heard that Fang Yao had invested. If he knew that she and Fang Yao were neighbors, would he explode?


    Initially, she thought that Yin Cheng would reject her and ask her to stay away from Fang Yao. After all, Yin Cheng had warned her not to get close to the Fang family.


    However, to her surprise, after Yin Cheng confirmed that it was the Fang Yao he was thinking of, the corners of his mouth gradually widened. Then, he smiled and nodded. ¡°Not bad, not bad. As expected of my daughter. She can even rope in the eldest young master of the Fang family. That Fang Yao has good taste. He has the courage to directly invest in my daughter. Hahaha, not bad, not bad.¡±


    After Yin Cheng finished speaking, he could not help but laugh again.


    The corners of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth twitched. So, what her father meant was that as long as the Fang family was on her side, he did not mind letting her work with them.


    ¡°Dad, since Fang Yao is now my business partner, do you want to meet him?¡± Yin Xun felt that Yin Cheng would be interested in meeting Fang Yao.


    Unexpectedly, Yin Cheng waved his hand and refused. ¡°No, no, no. If there¡¯s anything, you can talk to him. I¡¯ll keep out of it. What if I accidentally say something wrong to someone of his status? I¡¯ll drag you down.


    ¡°But, Xun, how do you know Fang Yao?¡± Yin Cheng asked curiously.


    Just as he finished asking, his phone suddenly rang. He looked at the phone and said, ¡°Wait, I have to take this call first. It¡¯s your sister.¡±


    ¡°Lil Mo, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Cheng was still smiling when he answered Yin Mo¡¯s call. It was obvious how happy he was.


    ¡°Dad, there¡¯s a problem with Si Fan¡¯s company. Can you help him?¡± Yin Mo¡¯s tone was very anxious. She asked Yin Cheng for money.


    Yin Cheng had his smile completely wiped away when he heard Yin Mo ask him to invest in Si Fan.


    He looked up at Yin Xun and gave her a look to ask for her opinion.


    Yin Xun shook his head, indicating that he could not.


    ¡°Lil Mo, Dad also has a project to take care of recently. I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t help him. By the way, doesn¡¯t he always borrow money from Xing Cheng whenever he needs funds? This time, he can just look for Xing Cheng,¡± Yin Cheng said.


    ¡°Dad, haven¡¯t you heard? Xing Cheng was sued by Sister and sent to prison. Now, he doesn¡¯t even know how to help himself. He can¡¯t help Fan at all,¡± Yin Mo said anxiously. ¡°How about this? Dad, please persuade Sister to drop this matter. Xing Cheng doesn¡¯t have any ill intentions. He just wants to look good in front of Sister!¡±

 Chapter 83 - 83 I’ll Take You Down With Me

    83 I¡¯ll Take You Down With Me


    There it was again. When Yin Xun heard Yin Mo¡¯s words, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Yin Cheng. She wanted to see how her father would reply to Yin Mo.


    Yin Cheng thought about it and sighed. Then, he said exasperatedly, ¡°Lil Mo, this matter is a little complicated. Come home tonight. We¡¯ll talk.¡±


    With that, he hung up before Yin Mo could say anything else.


    He knew his daughter well. If he did not hang up now, Yin Mo would be begging non-stop.


    !!


    On the other end, Yin Mo looked at the hung-up call and then looked at Si Fan, who was sitting beside her. She felt a little awkward.


    This was the first time Yin Cheng had hung up on her so impatiently.


    ¡°He neither agreed nor refused. What does he mean?¡± Si Fan asked Yin Mo with a dark expression.


    ¡°Maybe Dad is tight on funds recently. Didn¡¯t he say that he was working on a new project and needed to invest a lot of money?¡± Yin Mo tried explaining.


    Si Fan eyed her with disdain. However, when Yin Mo turned to look at him, he quickly retracted his gaze and revealed a concerned smile.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, have you noticed that ever since your sister, Yin Xun, returned, your status in the family has deteriorated day by day? In the past, your parents fulfilled all your requests, but now, no matter what you say, your parents will refuse,¡± Si Fan said in a low voice.


    Upon hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, Yin Mo suddenly felt a little listless. Although she wanted to say something to stand up for Yin Xun, she suddenly thought of the last time she called Yin Xun. She had kindly offered to set Yin Xun and Xing Cheng up, but in the end, Yin Xun said ¡°get lost¡± in response. Yin Mo did not know what to say.


    Si Fan noticed Yin Mo¡¯s gloomy expression and continued, ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯m your boyfriend, so I¡¯ll never harm you. The two of us are a family, but your sister might not see it that way.¡±


    Yin Mo did not agree. She retorted softly, ¡°Although my sister is fierce to us, she wouldn¡¯t harm me. Back then, she thought I was kidnapped and even went to save me.¡±


    ¡°That day, you pretended to be kidnapped. We told her not to call the police, or we would kill you. But what did she do? She only went to save you after calling the police. Even if you were really kidnapped at that time, with the police¡¯s protection, she was not in any danger. She might even have hoped that the kidnappers would kill you. That way, the Yin family¡¯s assets would all be hers.¡± Si Fan looked at her and said in a tone of disapproval.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, there¡¯s no one in this world who loves you more than me and no one who treats you better. Think about it. Since we met, haven¡¯t I always been the one taking care of you?¡± Si Fan grabbed Yin Mo by the shoulders and forced her to look into his eyes.


    Yin Mo nodded shyly. ¡°Yes.¡±


    Initially, she thought that Yin Xun had truly gone to save her. She never expected her sister to use the kidnappers to get rid of her. Thinking about how she could not even enter the company now, Yin Mo believed Si Fan¡¯s words.


    ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, you have to help me with everything you have. Mo¡¯er, I only have you, and you only have me. You will help me get through this hard time, right?¡± Si Fan guided Yin Mo step by step.


    Seeing Yin Mo nod, he continued, ¡°Then go back tonight and help me plead with your father. Get him to invest some money in me. Whether I can survive this crisis all depends on you. You won¡¯t disappoint me, right?¡±


    ¡°I-I¡¯ll try my best.¡± Yin Mo nodded, her gaze gradually becoming firm.


    Si Fan was right. Yin Xun¡¯s current goal was to gradually disintegrate Si Fan¡¯s strength. When the time came, she would claim the Yin family¡¯s assets. Yin Mo had not expected that Si Fan would care about her so much that he even thought of such a thing for her sake. Yin Mo looked at Si Fan gratefully and secretly vowed to help Si Fan get whatever investment he needed.


    Just as Yin Cheng hung up the phone with Yin Mo, Yin Xun received a call from the front desk. The woman who came to look for her in the morning was here again. She asked Yin Xun if she wanted to reject the person or let her in.


    ¡°Tell her to wait for me downstairs.¡± Just in case, Yin Xun decided to go down.


    After informing Yin Cheng, she went downstairs.


    ¡°Yin Xun!¡±


    Yin Xun had just stepped out of the elevator when she heard someone call out to her fiercely. Then, a figure quickly rushed toward her.


    Seeing this, Yin Xun quickly dodged. The figure was moving too fast and could not stop in time. With a bang, she directly hit the wall beside her. The next moment, the woman turned around and snarled, ¡°Yin Xun, if you won¡¯t let me live, I won¡¯t let you live either. I¡¯m going all out. I take you down with me!¡±

 Chapter 84 - 84 Don’t Get Any Ideas About The Yin Family

    84 Don¡¯t Get Any Ideas About The Yin Family


    Only then did Yin Xun see the woman¡¯s face clearly. It was Zhang Xin. Looking at her disheveled appearance, Yin Xun immediately understood what was going on.


    When she went to Xing Cheng¡¯s birthday party the other day, Zhang Xin tried to make things difficult for her. In the end, she exposed the fact that her family was going bankrupt, causing Zhang Xin to be chased out of the aristocratic circle.


    That day, after she returned from Xing Cheng¡¯s place, the first thing she did was to check on the cooperation between her family and the Zhang family.


    As expected, not only did the Yin family collaborate with the Zhang family, it was a one-sided poverty relief cooperation. Her family spent a large amount of money to help the Zhang family, but it did not bring any substantial benefits to the Yin family. Hence, she told Yin Cheng to stop this project.


    !!


    The Zhang family had always relied on the Yin family to support them. As soon as the Yin family stopped funding, the Zhang family could not hold on anymore and went bankrupt. Yin Xun knew all of this. Zhang Xin must have been used to living the life of a rich young lady and did not have a good time when she was bankrupt, so she came to take revenge on her.


    When Zhang Xin pounced on Yin Xun, the employees working on the first floor were shocked and rushed over. When Zhang Xin tried to pounce on Yin Xun again, she was pinned down. In the end, the security guards restrained her.


    ¡°Let go of me. If you don¡¯t, I¡¯ll call the police and say that you¡¯re kidnapping me! Yin Xun, you don¡¯t dare to take responsibility for your actions. If you have the guts, make them let go of me!¡± Zhang Xin shouted as if she had gone crazy. She struggled with her hands and feet, trying to break free from the security guard¡¯s restraint, but the guard was too strong. She could not break free at all.


    ¡°President Yin, this¡­¡± The security guard grabbed Zhang Xin and looked at Yin Xun with a troubled expression.


    ¡°Wait a minute.¡± Yin Xun looked at Zhang Xin and said, ¡°Zhang Xin, you came to my company to attack me and even wanted to drag me down with you. You¡¯re the one who broke the law, right? I advise you to behave yourself. Otherwise, I¡¯ll send you to the police station and let you go to jail with Liu Ying.¡±


    Zhang Xin wanted to continue cursing Yin Xun, but when she heard the last sentence, she immediately swallowed her words.


    She knew that Yin Xun would not hesitate to send her to jail. She was just here to scare Yin Xun into agreeing to help her, not to bring trouble for herself.


    ¡°Yin Xun, I¡¯m not here to cause trouble today. I have something to tell you. I won¡¯t touch you again. Make the bodyguards let go of me first.¡± Zhang Xin softened her tone and instantly lost her domineering look.


    ¡°Forget it. I¡¯m worried about you. If there¡¯s anything, just say it now. When you leave, the bodyguards will naturally let you go.¡± Yin Xun refused the request.


    Now that Zhang Xin had no assets, she could do anything. Yin Xun was not stupid enough to believe such a person.


    When Zhang Xin saw that Yin Xun refused to compromise, she knew that it was impossible for her to be set free, so she asked directly, ¡°Yin Xun, why did you withdraw the collaboration between the Yin family and our family? Did you know that you will force our family to our deaths by doing this?¡±


    As expected, it was because of this matter. Yin Xun said calmly, ¡°Zhang Xin, we are all businessmen. I¡¯m sure you know that doing business is about profit. Your Zhang family¡¯s current situation is like a bottomless pit. If the Yin family cooperates with you, what else can we get other than throwing away money? We are making money, not helping the poor.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun had no intention of helping, Zhang Xin knew that she could not force her way through this, so she could only try a softer approach.


    The next second, her eyes immediately turned red. She choked and said, ¡°But you can¡¯t leave me in the lurch. Your family is so rich. It won¡¯t affect you if you provide some support to our family. My family owes too much money now. Every day, there are debt collectors chasing after us. We don¡¯t even dare to return home. My mother is sick from anxiety because of this. You have to help our family.¡±


    Looking at Zhang Xin¡¯s pitiful look, Yin Xun laughed coldly. ¡°Firstly, I¡¯m not doing charity work, so I won¡¯t do anything that¡¯s strenuous and unrewarding. Secondly, I¡¯m not Yin Mo. Guilt-tripping won¡¯t work on me. Thirdly, I don¡¯t have any relationship with you, so don¡¯t come and act all pitiful in front of me. As long as I¡¯m in the Yin family, don¡¯t even think about taking advantage of our family.¡±


    Yin Xun rejected her completely. Zhang Xin wanted to squeeze out more tears to gain sympathy, but after hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, she froze. She knew that Yin Xun and Yin Mo were not the same kinds of people. That was clear from the fact that Yin Xun sent Liu Ying to prison.


    ¡°Leave. If you come to the Yin Family to cause trouble again, I won¡¯t be as polite as I am today,¡± Yin Xun said coldly.


    Seeing that begging Yin Xun was fruitless, Zhang Xin stopped crying and asked with a dark expression, ¡°Yin Xun, since you don¡¯t intend to help me, will you stop me if I ask your sister, Yin Mo, for help?¡±

 Chapter 85 - 85 The Problematic Person

    85 The Problematic Person


    Yin Mo? Yin Xun thought for a moment. Yin Mo could not even enter the company now. How could she have the money to help Zhang Xin?


    Suddenly, she thought of Si Fan. Yin Mo was with Si Fan now. Si Fan and Zhang Xin used to have a good relationship. It seemed like Zhang Xin was planning to ask Si Fan for help.


    ¡°Of course, I won¡¯t stop you. More than that, but I will also cheer for you to strive and pay off your debt as soon as possible.¡± Yin Xun smiled. At this moment, she looked rather gentle.


    The enemy of an enemy was a friend. She fully supported Zhang Xin to find Yin Mo and Si Fan for help. It would be best if she could suck Si Fan¡¯s company dry.


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s sudden change in expression, Zhang Xin frowned. She thought that Yin Xun¡¯s cold expression was normal just now, but now that she saw her smiling at her, she felt inexplicably terrified.


    ¡°Can you guarantee that?¡± Zhang Xin was not sure and asked again.


    Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°Of course.¡±


    ¡°Alright, in that case, I have nothing to worry about. Let go of me. I¡¯m leaving.¡± Zhang Xin rolled her eyes at the bodyguard who was holding her.


    ¡°Let her go.¡±


    At Yin Xun¡¯s signal, the bodyguard let go of Zhang Xin, but his eyes were fixed on Zhang Xin, afraid that Zhang Xin would suddenly attack Yin Xun again.


    Zhang Xin was very sensible. She knew that she could not afford to offend Yin Xun now, so she tidied her clothes and muttered a few words before leaving the building.


    Because her voice was too soft, Yin Xun could only hear bits and pieces like ¡°like him¡±, ¡°good relationship¡±, and ¡°old lover¡±.


    ¡°President Yin, did she hurt you just now?¡± After Zhang Xin left, the front desk staff went forward in fear and trepidation to ask.


    Yin Xun knew that the receptionist was afraid that she would blame her. She smiled and shook her head. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s fine.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s main purpose for coming to the company today was to discuss with Yin Cheng about opening a new company and investing in a shopping mall. Since she had already said what she needed, there was no need for her to continue staying in the company.


    Now, she had another very important thing to do. That was to choose the address of the new company and recruit people. After doing this, she had to focus on recruiting relevant talents. Thinking about it, there were still many things for her to do.


    Yin Xun left the company directly. Before preparing for the new company, she had to deal with Donggang City first. It was the recruitment stage now, so she decided to go and take a look personally.


    Donggang City had already started working again, although there were still not enough people. Yu Tu said that they could recruit people while working. This way, it would not affect their progress too much.


    After Yin Xun arrived, she first walked around the construction site. Seeing that everything was in order, she went to look for Yu Tu.


    ¡°Director Yu, how¡¯s the recruitment going? How many people are we lacking now?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    For her, the most important thing now was to successfully build Donggang City. After all, this was the first project she had handled. She had to do it perfectly.


    ¡°According to your requirements, we have already recruited the normal workers, and we are still lacking a few technical workers. Those who have already joined the company have very clean backgrounds, and they have not worked in the other company before.¡± Yu Tu continued, ¡°You¡¯re right on time. The last few recruits are for today¡¯s interview. Since President Yin is here, do you want to personally interview them?¡±


    The reason Yin Xun was so strict about recruiting new employees was that she was worried that Si Fan would secretly cause trouble. It would be bad if Si Fan sent someone over to pretend to apply for the job but actually stir trouble.


    If it were anyone else, Yin Xun would not think so. However, when it came to the male protagonist of the original novel, her worries might come true.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need. You can do the interview. I¡¯ll watch from the side,¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    Technical positions were not like ordinary positions. One had to be careful.


    The interview was rather late. Yin Xun patrolled the construction site for a while before the applicants arrived.


    When Yu Tu was communicating with them, Yin Xun sat at the side and listened while looking at the resumes of the candidates.


    The first few resumes were still normal, but when she saw the last one, Yin Xun¡¯s gaze lingered. There were a few years of work experience left empty on this resume. It also did not specify the previous company or position. This job applicant¡¯s name was Bai Bing.


    Yin Xun looked up and started to pay attention to Bai Bing based on the photo on the resume.


    Yu Tu chatted with each applicant for a while before it was finally the man¡¯s turn.


    ¡°Looking at your resume, there are a few gap years in your work experience. Did you not work during this period? Do you mind telling me what you¡¯ve been doing during this time?¡± Yu Tu¡¯s expression was serious.


    Bai Bing smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ve been studying at home for my certification, so I didn¡¯t go to work.¡±


    Yu Tu asked, ¡°What certification?¡±

 Chapter 86 - 86 Why Did You Come Back?

    86 Why Did You Come Back?


    ¡°Accounting.¡±


    Yin Xun glanced at the job application. It was indeed for the finance department.


    Yu Tu asked the man some other questions. After asking, he gestured for him to go back and wait for the notice.


    After Bai Bing left, Yu Tu asked Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, what do you think of the few people that were interviewed?¡±


    !!


    Yin Xun pointed at Bai Bing¡¯s resume and said, ¡°This person can stay. You can decide on the rest. However, you have to pay attention to one thing. If I¡¯m not wrong, there¡¯s something wrong with this person¡¯s background. After he takes office, send someone to keep an eye on him. If he does anything abnormal, inform me immediately.¡±


    ¡°Okay, but President Yin, what is the problem with this person? I feel that his answers are all very normal.¡± Yu Tu did not understand what was wrong with this man called Bai Bing. He asked a lot of questions, and Bai Bing answered all of them easily, which was why he was curious now.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s precisely because he answers so easily that it¡¯s abnormal. Think about it. He¡¯s only 28 years old and hasn¡¯t had a job since graduation. Even if it¡¯s for the sake of certification, don¡¯t you think he knows too much about workplace procedures?


    ¡°If he¡¯s a genius and is naturally astute to such things, why would need so many years to graduate? The exam is hard, but it¡¯s not so difficult that it will take a few years.¡±


    Yu Tu was also a smart person. Moreover, since Yin Xun had already said so, he immediately understood what she meant.


    ¡°So you¡¯re saying that he was sent to cause trouble?¡± Yu Tu asked in a deep voice.


    Yin Xun looked at him and nodded, but did not say anything.


    Yu Tu assured her, ¡°Okay, President Yin, I know what to do.¡±


    After all, he had been in management for so many years. It was no problem for him to deal with a small employee, especially a young one who looked like he did not have much experience.


    ¡°Let me know immediately if anything happens.¡± Yin Xun saw that Yu Tu understood and returned to her office in satisfaction.


    In order to better watch Donggang City¡¯s construction, she asked Yu Tu to prepare an office for her. In the future, if there was no ongoing business in the city, she would come to this office to work.


    Yin Xun returned to her office and began to prepare the information for the new company. She had only worked for a while when she received a call from her lawyer.


    The lawyer helped Wang Ran bring Xing Cheng directly to court. Because the evidence was conclusive and Wang Ran refused to mediate in private, with the lawyer¡¯s help, she requested to deal with Xing Cheng according to the law. Under various circumstances, Xing Cheng was finally sentenced to three years in prison.


    ¡°President Yin, Miss Wang Ran asked when you will transfer the money to her and send her overseas,¡± the lawyer asked.


    ¡°Tell her that I¡¯ll transfer the money to her immediately, but she¡¯ll have to wait for a while before she leaves the country. It¡¯ll take at most half a month. I can handle everything. During this period, I¡¯ll have to trouble you to help me keep an eye on her. If Si Fan finds out that she was the one who filed the lawsuit, she¡¯ll be in danger,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    She could have asked Wang Ran to leave the country immediately, but to prevent any accidents, she decided to keep Wang Ran in the country for a while.


    Xing Cheng¡¯s background was too strong. If anything else happened, with Wang Ran as a witness, Yin Xun would have a way to ensure Xing Cheng stayed in prison.


    However, before Wang Ran leaves the country, she had to take care of Wang Ran¡¯s safety. Si Fan still did not know about Wang Ran. If he did, with his personality, he would definitely take revenge.


    After instructing the lawyer, Yin Xun hung up the phone and suddenly felt a little tired.


    Ever since she came to this world, her mind had been in a tense state. She knew that as the male protagonist of the original novel, Si Fan would have many opportunities and resources flowing to him in the future. As for her, she did not have the aura of a protagonist and came from the outside. If she wanted to obtain these things, she would have to spend a lot of effort.


    Yin Xun encouraged herself in her heart. As long as the new company was on the right track, she could challenge Si Fan head-on.


    After a busy afternoon, seeing that the rest of the employees had gotten off work, Yin Xun finally relaxed. Then, she drove to the Yin family villa.


    Yin Cheng had wanted her to go home for dinner for ages. Now that she was done with work today, she could finally have a meal with her parents.


    When Yin Xian reached home, he saw Yin Mo sitting in the living room, watching television.


    ¡°Sister? Why are you back today?¡± Yin Mo asked in surprise when she saw Yin Xun walk in.


    ¡°This is also my home. Why? Can¡¯t I come back? Or do you not want me to come back?¡± Yin Xun glanced at her indifferently, her face expressionless.

 Chapter 87 - 87 The Matter Of Xing Cheng

    87 The Matter Of Xing Cheng


    Yin Mo quickly explained, ¡°How could that be? This is our home. Sis, you can come back whenever you want. I hope you can come back more often to accompany Dad and Mom in the future. Lil Rui still has to go to school and study. There¡¯s only Dad and Mom at home. They¡¯re lonely.¡±


    ¡°Since you see that your parents are lonely, why don¡¯t you come back often to accompany them?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Yin Mo was stunned for a moment before she quickly explained, ¡°Because I still have to accompany Si Fan. He has encountered some difficulties recently and needs my concern.¡±


    ¡°Oh,¡± Yin Xun replied perfunctorily. Yin Mo only had Si Fan in her mind.


    !!


    ¡°Sister,¡± Yin Mo called out to her.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Xun glanced at her indifferently.


    ¡°Um, have you been busy recently?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡±


    ¡°Then do you know about Xing Cheng?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t.¡±


    ¡°But didn¡¯t you send Xing Cheng to prison? It wasn¡¯t a big deal at first, but for some reason, the police suddenly said that he had committed rape and wanted to sentence him. Do you really not know about this?¡±


    Yin Mo finally said what she wanted to say. She knew that it was useless to beat around the bush and ask Yin Xun. Yin Xun would not answer her directly if she could. It was better to say it bluntly so that Yin Xun would not avoid it.


    However, she did not expect Yin Xun¡¯s reply. ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡±


    Yin Mo ignored Yin Xun¡¯s coldness and continued, ¡°Fan has encountered some financial difficulties recently. He originally wanted to look for Xing Cheng to help, but Xing Cheng was sued and sent to prison. Because the situation was too serious, even Si Fan couldn¡¯t help. Xing Cheng said that this matter is related to you.¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun, took a deep breath, and continued, ¡°Sister, no matter how Xing Cheng provoked you, on account that we¡¯re all friends, please don¡¯t pursue the matter. He¡¯s actually not a bad person. He did those things just to attract your attention. If possible, can you withdraw the case?¡±


    ¡°Oh?¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo and asked, ¡°Do you know why Xing Cheng was sentenced?¡±


    ¡°Rape¡­¡± These words were like a hot potato. Yin Mo held it in for a long time before she could say it. After she finished speaking, she blushed and lowered her head.


    ¡°You lead a colorful nightlife. so why are you so shy with just saying those words?¡± Yin Xun rolled her eyes at her.


    ¡°Sis, what, what are you talking about? I don¡¯t understand¡­¡± Yin Mo blushed and asked softly.


    Looking at Yin Mo¡¯s reaction, Yin Xun complained in her heart. Did she really not understand or was she pretending not to?


    How did she know about this? Of course, she had read about it in the novel. After all, she was once a fan of this book. It was just that she could not stand the characterization of the two protagonists and abandoned the book.


    ¡°Since you know what crime Xing Cheng committed, you still want to absolve him? You¡¯re a girl too. Besides, aren¡¯t you famous for your kindness? Why don¡¯t you consider the girls who were hurt by him? You even want to let him go. It¡¯s a pity that he doesn¡¯t get sent to prison for more than ten years.¡±


    ¡°Actually, it¡¯s just that he changes his girlfriend rather frequently. We¡¯re all adults. It¡¯s normal for both parties to give consent. However, there are always people who use this excuse to swindle others. If they can¡¯t get money, they¡¯ll sue.¡± At this point, Yin Mo¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Sister, you care so much about him doing things like that. You must really like him, right?¡±


    Yin Xun cursed in her heart.


    She realized that Yin Mo had the ability to max out her blood pressure at any time, but she could not show that she was angry. If she was angry with such a person, it meant that she had lost.


    Yin Xun took a deep breath and sneered. ¡°Since you don¡¯t care about reputation so much, I hope that you won¡¯t defend your rights when you encounter such things in the future. I believe Si Fan loves you so much that he won¡¯t care about this so-called ¡®consent¡¯.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s ¡°blessing¡±, the smile on Yin Mo¡¯s face froze. The next second, her expression turned ugly as she stammered, ¡°Sister, w-what are you talking about? How could I have encountered anything like that?!¡±


    Yin Xun sneered. Yin Mo privately understood everything and knew the seriousness of the matter. It was just that the crime did not affect her, so she could easily say apathetic words. Her kindness was built on not souring her relationship with Si Fan. Of course, any intelligence of hers stopped there.


    ¡°You two sisters, come over for dinner. Everything I made tonight is your favorite. Come quickly,¡± Wu Li called out to them in the dining room.


    ¡°Sister, actually, Xing Cheng¡­¡±

    ¡°Alright, I don¡¯t want to talk about this anymore. Let¡¯s go. Mom asked us to eat.¡± Yin Xun interrupted Yin Mo and walked toward the dining room.


    Although she did not let Yin Mo finish her sentence, based on her understanding of Yin Mo, Yin Mo was either trying to matchmake her and Xing Cheng again, asking her to plead for Xing Cheng, or asking her to help Si Fan. She did not want to talk about this before dinner. She would not be able to eat later.


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun¡¯s back. She was about to say the most important thing, but she did not expect Yin Xun to leave directly. No, no matter if Yin Xun wanted to hear it or not, she could not give up this opportunity. It was rare for her to see Yin Xun. Moreover, Si Fan had specially instructed her before she came back.


    ¡°Sis, wait for me. I¡¯ll go with you.¡± Yin Mo got up and chased after Yin Xun. They walked toward the dining room together.


    !!


    It was rare for the Yin family to gather for a meal today. Even Yin Rui, who was in school, had a break today, so the dining table was especially lively.


    Wu Li was the happiest. She did not have to go to work and usually stayed at home or went shopping with her friends. She had nothing to do every day and the children were not at home, so she often felt lonely. Now that the family was gathered, she always smiled gently.


    Everyone was happy except Yin Rui.


    In the beginning, everyone happily said that they had encountered something fun. After that, they talked about work. Once that was done, Yin Cheng began to interrogate Yin Rui about his studies.


    Yin Rui had been trying to change the topic, but Yin Cheng knew his son the best. He could tell at a glance that Yin Rui did not do well. However, he did not want to let Yin Rui off just like that. He kept asking more questions. Under Yin Cheng¡¯s insistence, Yin Rui finally revealed his results reluctantly. This time, he failed all the subjects again.


    When Yin Mo heard this, she sighed in her heart and silently prayed for Yin Rui. Then, she lowered her head and ate.


    When Yin Cheng heard Yin Rui say that he had failed all the subjects, he threw down his chopsticks with a bang and turned around to take the broom to hit Yin Rui.


    ¡°Sister, save me!¡± Yin Rui tried to hide beside Yin Xun. When Yin Cheng saw this, he was afraid that he would hurt Yin Xun. In addition, Wu Li had been trying to stop him from the side. He raised the broom but did not attack for a long time.


    Yin Rui saw that Yin Cheng had indeed stopped attacking, so he leaned closer to Yin Xun and complained softly, ¡°Dad, you¡¯re too fierce. Look at Mother. She¡¯s much gentler. You can¡¯t do this to your children. You should educate them more.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m educating you by hitting you! You only know how to hide behind your elder sister. If you have the ability, come out!¡± Yin Cheng was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his head.


    Yin Rui was still complaining. ¡°I¡¯m not capable. I just like to hide beside my elder sister.¡± After saying that, he even made a face at Yin Cheng, looking unruly.


    Yin Xun finally could not take it anymore. She said in a deep voice, ¡°Yin Rui, sit down.¡±


    ¡°Okay, Sister.¡± Yin Rui saw Yin Xun¡¯s cold expression and quickly sat down, not daring to make a scene.


    ¡°Dad, Si Fan has been having financial difficulties recently. Can you help him?¡± Yin Mo suddenly asked.


    The originally lively dining table instantly turned cold. Other than Yin Xun, everyone looked at Yin Mo with different expressions.


    Yin Xun was still quietly eating her food. She could not help but sigh in her heart. As expected, Yin Mo came back for Si Fan.


    She had a feeling that there would be a huge battle at home later. Fortunately, she was almost full.


    ¡°Lil Mo, it¡¯s not easy for our family to get together for dinner. Let¡¯s not talk about outsiders for now. If there¡¯s anything, let¡¯s talk after dinner,¡± Yin Cheng said with a stiff smile.


    However, Yin Mo did not intend to give up. She continued, ¡°Dad, Si Fan is not an outsider. He¡¯s my boyfriend and your future son-in-law. We¡¯re all family. Your son-in-law is in trouble now. Can you help him? He didn¡¯t want to trouble you at first, but he really had no choice.¡±


    ¡°Originally, he could have asked Xing Cheng for help, but for some reason, my sister always found Xing Cheng an eyesore. She actually sent Xing Cheng to prison. He was even sentenced to a few years in prison and can¡¯t help Si Fan now. We had no one else to ask for help, so we could only come to you.¡±


    Before Yin Cheng could say anything, Yin Rui could not take it anymore. He frowned at Yin Mo and asked, ¡°Second Sister, has your brain been kicked by Xing Cheng?! Are we family or not? In order to save you, Eldest Sister went to look for the kidnapper alone. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t care about her, but you¡¯re even blaming her!¡±

 Chapter 89 - 89 The Yin Mo Who Deserves A Beating

    89 The Yin Mo Who Deserves A Beating


    ¡°Lil Rui, you¡¯ve misunderstood. They¡¯re not kidnappers. It¡¯s because Xing Cheng likes Big Sister, but he knows that he can¡¯t get her with ordinary methods, so he thought of doing this. Besides, I¡¯m with him, so there¡¯s no way he would have hurt her,¡± Yin Mo hurriedly explained.


    After listening to Yin Mo¡¯s explanation, Yin Rui was even more shocked. ¡°Second Sister, are you alright? Listen to what you just said. Xing Cheng pretended to be a kidnapper because he liked Big Sister and wanted to pursue her. He didn¡¯t succeed the first time, so he got someone to capture Big Sister later. Isn¡¯t this bullying?


    ¡°Big Sister is fine now because she¡¯s lucky. It has nothing to do with whether Xing Cheng likes Big Sister or not. He let her down first. I¡¯ve never seen a normal boy do such a thing to a girl he likes. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t want to help Big Sister, but you actually blame her. What are you thinking? There has to be a limit to kindness. Why do you only know how to think for outsiders?¡±


    ¡°Lil Rui, how can you talk to me like that?¡± Yin Mo retorted weakly. ¡°Xing Cheng is my and Si Fan¡¯s friend. How could he hurt Big Sister? He really doesn¡¯t have any ill intentions.¡±


    ¡°Second Sister, if your boyfriend had also kidnapped you and bullied you, would you still be with him? For example, if I liked a girl, and then I imprisoned her and hurt her. Would I be able to win that girl over?¡± Yin Rui was speechless.


    Upon hearing Yin Rui¡¯s words, Yin Xun cursed silently in her heart. Yin Mo actually liked this kind of person. She suspected that Yin Rui had read the script too. In the original work, Yin Mo was imprisoned by Si Fan, had some of her organs removed, and her entire family was killed. In the end, not only did she forgive Si Fan, but she also loved him to the core.


    ¡°Alright, you siblings, stop arguing. It¡¯s not easy for our family to get together for a meal. Don¡¯t ruin the atmosphere for outsiders. Let¡¯s eat first. If there¡¯s anything, we¡¯ll talk after dinner.¡± Yin Cheng interrupted their argument. At this moment, his voice was already very displeased.


    As soon as Yin Cheng spoke, it finally quietened down again. However, the atmosphere was a little oppressive, and no one was in the mood to continue eating.


    Yin Xun was at the center of the argument. Although she did not say anything just now, she was actually the angriest. She realized that she felt nauseous just looking at Yin Mo and could not eat at all.


    However, she also knew that it was not easy for the family to get together, especially for Wu Li. Her happiness just now was obvious to anyone. She did not want Wu Li to be sad, so she planned to leave after everyone finished eating.


    Before long, Yin Xun regretted her decision.


    Just as she lowered her head and pretended to be eating, Yin Mo suddenly stood up as if she had made a huge decision. Then, she looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Sister, I know that you actually like Xing Cheng in your heart. Moreover, I also know that the evidence obtained by the police was given by you. You did this because you were jealous, right?¡±


    ¡°Sister, if you like him, just say it. I can help you plead with Dad and ask him to let you two be together. Just because he had a few more girlfriends in the past, he was sent to prison. That¡¯s too much. You shouldn¡¯t do this if you like someone. We have to reconsider for your lover!¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned when he heard Yin Mo¡¯s words. She lost her grip on the bowl and it fell to the ground with a bang before shattering.


    At the same time, Yin Rui¡¯s chopsticks fell to the ground.


    ¡°Lil Mo, do you know what you¡¯re saying? How could your sister like Xing Cheng?!¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s expression instantly darkened.


    Yin Mo quickly explained, ¡°Dad, think about it. If Big Sister really doesn¡¯t like Xing Cheng, why is she so concerned about his matters? She likes Xing Cheng, and Xing Cheng likes her too. Then let them be together! Xing Cheng has been locked up by Big Sister. As long as you agree to let them be together, Big Sister can bail him out.¡±


    ¡°Second Sister, you¡­¡±


    ¡°Lil Rui, go back to your room.¡± Yin Rui was about to say more things to Yin Mo, but Yin Xun did not give him a chance to speak and interrupted him.


    She felt that she could not stand Yin Mo anymore. She had to beat Yin Mo up. It would not be good if Yin Rui saw this, though. She had to send him away first.


    Yin Rui wanted to say something more, but when Yin Xun looked at him coldly, he immediately returned to his room obediently.

 Chapter 90 - 90 The Last Chance

    90 The Last Chance


    Seeing that Yin Rui had left, Yin Xun did not say a word. She raised her hand and slapped Yin Mo. She used all her strength in this slap and directly slapped Yin Mo¡¯s face. It seemed to instantly swell a little.


    After slapping her, Yin Xun finally heaved a sigh of relief. She had wanted to slap her for a long time. It seemed that the effect was not bad, but her hand stung. It seemed that she had to prepare something next time she hit Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo was stunned by Yin Xun¡¯s attack. She did not expect Yin Xun to hit her directly in front of her parents and with such force!


    ¡°Sister, why did you hit me? I¡¯m doing this for your own good! You and Xing Cheng are clearly very compatible and like each other. If you miss your chance, what if you regret it in the future¡­¡±


    !!


    Yin Mo actually dared to mention Xing Cheng. Yin Xun finally could not suppress the anger in her heart. She took a step forward and wanted to continue hitting Yin Mo. Yin Cheng reacted quickly and pulled her away this time.


    ¡°Yin Mo, just take care of yourself. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don¡¯t use Xing Cheng as an excuse! What do my matters have to do with you? Since you like to mention Xing Cheng so much, why don¡¯t you be with him? The two of you are so suitable! I¡¯ll call Si Fan now and say that you like Xing Cheng and don¡¯t want to be with him anymore.¡±


    As Yin Xun spoke, she picked up his phone and really planned to call Si Fan.


    ¡°Dad, Mom! Look at Big Sister. Her love life isn¡¯t going well, and she¡¯s always trying to drag me down with her!¡± Yin Mo was afraid that Yin Xun would actually make the call, so she rushed over to snatch the phone. However, she did not expect Yin Xun to react so quickly. She dodged to the side and kicked her again. Yin Mo screamed and fell to the ground.


    When Wu Li saw that Yin Mo had fallen, she quickly went over to help her up. Yin Cheng looked at his two daughters helplessly. He was afraid that the two sisters would fall out for real, so he quickly said, ¡°Lil Mo, you¡¯ve said so much. Is there something wrong? If there¡¯s anything, just say it. We¡¯re family. Don¡¯t use your sister as an excuse to beat around the bush.¡±


    Wu Li helped Yin Mo up. At this moment, she looked very aggrieved. Her eyes were red, and tears fell like broken beads.


    Upon hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s question, she sobbed and replied, ¡°It¡¯s Ah who¡¯s having difficulties with the flow of funds. He needs money. He knows that he¡¯s already begged the Yin family too much and doesn¡¯t want to trouble the Yin family anymore, so he wants to ask Xing Cheng for help. However, Xing Cheng is in prison now and can¡¯t help him. I want Sister to withdraw the lawsuit and let Xing Cheng out.¡±


    Yin Xun laughed coldly and said, ¡°Si Fan is embarrassed to ask the Yin family for help? He is indeed embarrassed because he instigated you to steal the Yin family¡¯s collaboration information. We already know this, so how can he still have the nerve to ask us for help? The last time you asked Dad to help him, it was actually him who asked you to ask that, right?¡±


    ¡°Sis, how, how do you know¡­¡± Yin Mo was shocked.


    ¡°How do I know? Looks like your brain was indeed eaten by Si Fan,¡± Yin Xun said coldly. ¡°How could I not guard myself against an idiot like you at home? Fortunately, that contract was originally intended for Si Fan anyway, so it¡¯s fine even if you leak it to him. If that contract belonged to our family, then you can spend the rest of your life in prison with Xing Cheng.¡±


    ¡°I was just showing it to Fan. I won¡¯t reveal any secrets. Besides, nothing happened, so don¡¯t be angry anymore, Sis.¡± Yin Mo said softly.


    Yin Xun saw that Yin Mo still did not know what she did was wrong and was still looking for excuses. She took a deep breath and turned to walk out.


    ¡°Sis, where are you going?¡± Yin Mo saw Yin Xun walking toward the door without saying a word and quickly called out to her.


    ¡°Don¡¯t call me Sis, Yin Mo. I¡¯ll make things clear to you here today.¡± Yin Xun stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at Yin Mo. ¡°If you dare to interfere in my business again, I¡¯ll cut ties with you. If you don¡¯t want me as your sister anymore, you can give it a try.¡±


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, she ignored Yin Mo¡¯s reaction and turned to leave.


    ¡°Xun!¡± Yin Cheng and Wu Li did not expect Yin Xun to leave just like that. It seemed that she was really angry. They quickly tried to stop her.


    ¡°Dad, Mom, I¡¯ll come and see you next time when I have time.¡± With that, Yin Xun opened the door and left.


    ¡°Dad, Mom, I¡­¡±


    ¡°What else do you want to say? Can¡¯t you see that your sister ran away in anger because of you? Hurry up and apologize to her!¡± Wu Li scolded Yin Mo and quickly got up to chase after Yin Xun. Yin Cheng followed closely behind.


    After they left, Yin Rui slowly walked out of the room.

 Chapter 91 - 91 Two Positives Made A Negative

    91 Two Positives Made A Negative


    ¡°Second Sister, there¡¯s something I don¡¯t understand. Are you really being kind, or are you doing things that harm others and benefit yourself?¡± After Yin Rui finished speaking, he turned around and returned to his room before Yin Mo could finish speaking.


    He was also visibly angry. When he closed the door, he used a lot of strength, and even the door frame even rattled.


    Yin Cheng and Wu Li stopped Yin Xun.


    ¡°Xun, your sister has always been like this. It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know her personality. If you really can¡¯t take it, just treat her as air and ignore her,¡± Wu Li advised her.


    ¡°Mom, I can¡¯t tell if you dote on her or me more. I¡¯ve already done my best for her. In order to save her, I went to look for the kidnappers alone. Even if I found out later that it was fake, what if it was real? Would I be in danger? I¡¯ve already done so much. And where¡¯s Yin Mo? She only knows how to force me to be with Xing Cheng for her own selfish reasons.¡±


    ¡°You and my father should know what kind of person Xing Cheng is, right? According to Yin Mo, it was nothing but talk this time. Next time, can you guarantee that she won¡¯t knock me out and send me to some man¡¯s bed? Will you also ask me to forgive her just because that¡¯s her character?¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    ¡°Dad, Mom, I¡¯m the eldest in the family, so I know that I have the responsibility to take care of my family and maintain the company. However, this doesn¡¯t mean that I should be infinitely tolerant of my sister. I¡¯m also your daughter. I¡¯m a living person. I have my own emotions. I don¡¯t need to be ¡®good to you¡¯ in my life.¡±


    Yin Xun said a lot in one breath.


    Wu Li sighed and said, ¡°Xun, although your sister is indeed very stupid sometimes, she¡¯s not a bad person. She won¡¯t do that kind of thing.¡±


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°She won¡¯t do it, but what about Si Fan? Don¡¯t forget that Si Fan was the one who asked her to do this. With that brain of hers, as long as Si Fan says something nice, she might not reject it even if he asked her to kill someone. What do you think?¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Cheng and Wu Li felt that it made sense. They knew Yin Mo¡¯s personality too well. Yin Mo might not listen to them, but she would definitely listen to Si Fan.


    Wu Li¡¯s eyes instantly turned red. She choked and said, ¡°Both of you are my precious daughters. Both of you are my flesh and blood. I don¡¯t want to see you two fall out¡­¡±


    ¡°Mom.¡± Yin Xun sighed softly. ¡°I was afraid that you would be sad, so I didn¡¯t go too far just now. You know how much Yin Mo has gone overboard in the past. I¡¯ve forgiven her many times. This time, for your sake, I¡¯ll give her one last chance. If she can live her life quietly in the future, no matter if she¡¯s good or bad, I can at least maintain a sisterly relationship with her.¡±


    ¡°However, if this happens again in the future, I¡¯ll sever my sisterhood with her on the spot. Whether she continues being my sister will depend on her. I¡¯ve already done what an elder sister should do. No matter what, I have a clear conscience.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Wu Li wanted to say something, but Yin Cheng interrupted her.


    Yin Cheng pulled Wu Li into his arms and patted her back to comfort her. ¡°Alright, Xun is not a child. She has her own opinions. She knows how to handle things better. She was indeed wronged this time. It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know Lil Mo¡¯s character. She only has Si Fan in her heart and doesn¡¯t have a place for us. The two of them are our daughters. We can¡¯t favor one over the other.¡±


    After comforting Wu Li, Yin Cheng raised his head and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Go back to your place first. Your mother and I will handle this matter. We can¡¯t let you suffer all the time. You¡¯ve already worried enough for the company. I¡¯ve seen it all. I definitely won¡¯t let you suffer this grievance for nothing.¡±


    Wu Li chimed in, ¡°You¡¯re right. I gave birth to my two daughters after ten months of pregnancy. How can I ask Xun to be more tolerant just because she¡¯s more sensible? She¡¯s just a little girl. We neglected her feelings too much in the past. As parents, we have to treat them equally.¡±


    Yin Xun thought that Wu Li would continue to persuade her, but she did not expect her to understand so quickly. She could not help but sigh in her heart. These parents were quite reasonable. How could they give birth to a child like Yin Mo who lacked brain stems? Could it really be that two positives made a negative?

 Chapter 92 - 92 I’m Doing This For Your Good

    92 I¡¯m Doing This For Your Good


    Her parents looked normal, and so did her brother. Unfortunately, this family of normal people had been destroyed by the abnormal Yin Mo and ended up in such a miserable state.


    She secretly swore that as long as Yin Cheng and Wu Li could be reasonable, she would do her best to change their ending.


    Yin Cheng and Wu Li decided not to stop Yin Xun from leaving. Before Yin Xun left, she suddenly thought of Zhang Xin.


    She reminded Yin Cheng, ¡°Dad, if you will listen to your daughter¡¯s advice, it¡¯s best not to care about Si Fan¡¯s matters. No matter how much money he needs, don¡¯t give it to him. Because this will be an opening. Once this opening is created, it will definitely become a bottomless pit in the future.¡±


    !!


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Your father isn¡¯t that old and muddle-headed,¡± Yin Cheng assured Yin Xun.


    When Yin Cheng and Wu Li saw Yin Xun drive away from the villa, they looked at each other before returning to the dining room.


    Yin Mo was applying an ice pack to her face. Yin Xun¡¯s slap was too forceful, and half of her face was already swollen.


    The parents first helped Yin Mo analyze why Yin Xun was so angry, then persuaded her to find an opportunity to apologize to Yin Xun. After talking for a long time, Yin Mo still looked aggrieved.


    ¡°Big Sister likes Xing Cheng. She hasn¡¯t admitted it because she¡¯s embarrassed. Dad, you can persuade her. Compared to her happiness, dignity isn¡¯t important at all¡­¡± Yin Mo said aggrievedly.


    ¡°Like him, my *ss!¡± Yin Cheng suddenly felt that Yin Xun had just thrown a good punch. He and his wife had been trying to persuade Yin Mo for so long, but she still felt that Yin Xun liked Xing Cheng.


    Luckily for her, Yin Mo was a girl. If it was Yin Rui who said that, he would have hit her with a stick.


    Wu Li saw that Yin Cheng was so angry that his face was red. She was afraid that he would do something extreme, so she quickly said, ¡°Lil Mo, you¡¯re not young anymore. Why are you always thinking from your own standpoint?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m asking you, do you like your sister? Do you want her to be happy?¡± Wu Li asked patiently.


    Yin Mo nodded. ¡°Of course. We¡¯re family. How could I not want her to live well?¡±


    ¡°You call that wishing your sister well? We call that harming her!¡± Yin Cheng said angrily.


    ¡°You can talk later!¡± Wu Li frowned and stopped them. Then, she continued to ask Yin Mo, ¡°Since you want your sister to live well, you shouldn¡¯t force your opinion on her. She¡¯s an adult. She knows who she likes or hates. She doesn¡¯t need you to teach her what to do. Look at your sister. Although she doesn¡¯t like Si Fan, did she force you to break up with him?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes lit up when she heard that Yin Xun did not like Si Fan. She quickly shook her head.


    When Wu Li saw this, she thought that she had finally explained it to Yin Mo. She heaved a sigh of relief and said gently, ¡°Look, you understand the logic, right? Then in front of your sister in the future, don¡¯t mention anything that makes her unhappy, okay?¡±


    Unexpectedly, Yin Mo still said stubbornly, ¡°But Sister likes Xing Cheng. Otherwise, why would she send Xing Cheng to prison? If she doesn¡¯t care about him, can¡¯t she just let Xing Cheng out? I¡¯m doing this for her own good, but why doesn¡¯t she appreciate it?¡±


    Wu Li, ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing that Yin Mo still did not understand, even Wu Li, who was the gentlest in the family, did not know what to do. She looked at Yin Cheng helplessly and used her eyes to ask for help.


    ¡°Since you¡¯ve been interfering with your sister¡¯s life in the name of doing it for her own good, you should have a taste of what it¡¯s like being forced,¡± Yin Cheng said with a dark expression. ¡°I know why you always want to matchmake your sister and Xing Cheng. Isn¡¯t it because Si Fan needs money and only Xing Cheng is willing to support him unconditionally, so he urged you to make Xun help Xing Cheng get out of prison?¡±


    ¡°I really underestimated him in the past. He¡¯s indeed not a good person. Lil Mo, for your personal safety, don¡¯t meet Si Fan again in the future. Let¡¯s stop here. In order to completely cut off these thoughts, stay at home obediently until you completely forget about Si Fan.¡±


    ¡°Dad!¡± Yin Mo¡¯s face was filled with shock. She did not expect Yin Cheng to actually try to break her and Si Fan up. ¡°Si Fan and I are truly in love. He¡¯s really good to me. You can¡¯t break us up!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m doing this for your own good. Be good and listen to Daddy.¡± Yin Cheng suddenly felt a little better, and even his tone softened.


    Seeing that begging Yin Cheng was useless, Yin Mo turned to Wu Li. ¡°Mom, quickly tell Dad that Si Fan and I have always been good together. Why would you break us up?¡±

 Chapter 93 - 93 Fang Yao Saw It

    93 Fang Yao Saw It


    Unexpectedly, even Wu Li was standing on Yin Cheng¡¯s side. She patted Yin Mo¡¯s head and advised gently, ¡°Be good. Your father is doing this for your own good.¡±


    Yin Cheng was afraid that Yin Mo would slip away, so he instructed Wu Li in front of Yin Mo, ¡°Lil Mo is easily soft-hearted. If Si Fan begs her, she will definitely sneak out. In the future, I¡¯ll leave the task of watching her to you. Sorry for the trouble.¡±


    Wu Li nodded and said, ¡°Alright, don¡¯t worry. I definitely won¡¯t let Lil Mo out.¡±


    Yin Mo looked at her parents in shock. She did not understand how things had turned out like this. In the past, her parents would do their best to satisfy her requests no matter what she asked for. Why were they so cruel to her this time?


    Xing Cheng and Si Fan were good friends. She and Si Fan were boyfriend and girlfriend. As long as Yin Xun and Xing Cheng were together, they would be a big family. At that time, Si Fan would not pay so much attention to Yin Xun anymore. Why should they reject the best of both worlds?


    She suddenly thought of what Si Fan had said. Ever since Yin Xun returned, her parents¡¯ love for her had decreased a lot. She was clearly trying to help Yin Xun, but in the end, everyone blamed her.


    Could it really be that Si Fan was right, and that her parents were biased toward Yin Xun?


    Yin Mo still wanted to stand up for herself. Before she came, Si Fan had repeatedly instructed her to either persuade Yin Xun to help Xing Cheng get out of prison, or get Yin Cheng to provide him with financial support.


    From the looks of it, none of them were possible. Si Fan would definitely blame her. What should she do?


    ¡°Dad, Mom, I¡­¡±


    ¡°Alright, I have a very important meeting tomorrow. I¡¯m going to sleep first. Lil Mo, don¡¯t run away. Otherwise, I¡¯ll cut off your pocket money and leave it to Si Fan to support you in the future.¡± After Yin Cheng warned her, he returned to his room to sleep.


    He knew his daughter too well. Yin Mo had indeed wanted to slip away to look for Si Fan, but when she heard that Yin Cheng was going to cut off his allowance, she immediately dismissed the idea.


    She did not have a job. Once her pocket money was cut off, she would never be able to shop again.


    Yin Xun, who had already left, did not know what happened at home. At this moment, she had already returned to the villa in the suburbs.


    Actually, ever since she left the Yin family home, she was not that angry anymore. It was not like she just found out about Yin Mo¡¯s personality for the first time. When she first read the novel, she had already completely understood that woman.


    Originally, she had planned to fall out with Yin Mo directly. After all, she was more afraid of a garbage teammate than a god-like enemy. Yin Mo¡¯s personality could bring her trouble at any time.


    However, she really did not want Wu Li and Yin Cheng to be sad. Ever since she came to this world, Wu Li and Yin Cheng had treated her very well. She had fully felt a sense of kinship with them.


    If Wu Li and Yin Cheng were like Yin Mo, she would not care about either of them. However, the key problem was that Wu Li and Yin Cheng were innocent.


    For their sake, Yin Xun was willing to give Yin Mo a chance, but if Yin Mo provoked her again, she would sever all ties with her. No one could persuade her.


    Yin Xun walked to the balcony and looked across. Fang Yao¡¯s house was pitch-black. It seemed that Fang Yao was not at home tonight.


    ¡°Holy Mother, stupid, annoying¡­¡± Yin Xun cursed as she stretched out her fist to hit the huge doll on the balcony. It was the cute version of a sandbag that she had specially asked Mary to prepare for training.


    However, Fang Yao was living opposite her. In order to maintain her image, she had not used it.


    Since Fang Yao was not at home tonight, she could finally make a move.


    ¡°Kill the Saintess! Heh!¡± Yin Xun was in the midst of a fight when the window opposite her opened with a bang.


    Yin Xun suddenly turned around and met Fang Yao¡¯s gaze. The two of them looked at each other and did not speak for a moment. At this moment, Yin Xun was still readying a punch.


    ¡°Is that training?¡± After the two of them looked at each other for a while, Fang Yao was the first to break the stalemate.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, hehe¡­ Good evening, why didn¡¯t you turn on the lights?¡± Yin Xun quickly retracted her fist, stood up, and greeted Fang Yao.


    Although she was so nervous that she was about to tremble, her face was calm. Fang Yao was her sugar daddy now. She could not let him think that she had violent tendencies.


    ¡°The light is broken. I¡¯m going to fix it tomorrow.¡± Fang Yao glanced at the huge sandbag behind Yin Xun and said calmly, ¡°So that was a sandbag. I always thought it was just an ordinary doll.¡±


    Yin Xun quickly took a step to the side to block the doll and said awkwardly, ¡°My assistant temporarily left it with me. Seriously, I don¡¯t know when she will take the doll away. I found it so cute just now and couldn¡¯t help but hit it a few times.¡±


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±

    After Yin Xun finished speaking, she realized that she might as well not try to explain. If she did, it would be even more ridiculous.


    She quickly changed the topic. ¡°Ahem, by the way, I¡¯ve already decided on the address and plan for the new company. We can move in after the renovation is done.¡±


    ¡°Oh, what¡¯s the company¡¯s name?¡± Fang Yao could tell that Yin Xun was changing the topic, but he did not expose her. Instead, he followed her pace and asked.


    Yin Xun smiled and asked, ¡°How about Xintao?¡±


    !!


    ¡°Xintao?¡± Fang Yao repeated in a low voice. ¡°This name is a little strange, but it sounds like it can make money.¡±


    ¡°Of course. After all, I didn¡¯t pick it on a whim,¡± Yin Xun said proudly.


    She was not being careless. In her world, projects like this had already taken shape, so she was very sure what name she should choose and what to do.


    ¡°Since you¡¯ve already decided, the first sum of money will be transferred to your account soon. If you need anything, you can tell me at any time,¡± Fang Yao said in a deep voice.


    Yin Xun nodded in agreement. ¡°Okay!¡± Then, she suddenly thought of something and looked at Fang Yao with a smile. Her eyes curved into two crescent moons that sparkled beautifully.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression gave him a bad feeling.


    Indeed, in the next second, Yin Xun said slowly, ¡°Fang Yao, I really need your help with something. How much do you know about Si Fan? If possible, can you help me investigate him? Also, Si Fan used to have a person called Mi Jin by his side. Help me find out where he is now.¡±


    Unexpectedly, the first thing Yin Xun did when he asked for his help was to investigate Si Fan. For some reason, he felt that Yin Xun was paying too much attention to Si Fan.


    ¡°You¡¯re quite concerned about your brother-in-law.¡± Fang Yao did not even notice that his tone was a little envious.


    Yin Xun did not notice his abnormality either and said matter-of-factly, ¡°Of course. We¡¯re opponents. The consequences of underestimating our opponents are equivalent to suicide. Besides, his heart is rotten. What if he uses underhanded means when I¡¯m not paying attention? I¡¯ll definitely pay more attention to him and understand him.¡±


    Her words made sense, and Fang Yao did not know how to refute them.


    ¡°Because that man is not a threat to me, I¡¯ve never paid attention to him. But if you need it, I can help you investigate. Why don¡¯t you come over for dinner tomorrow? The butler bought a blue lobster and it¡¯ll arrive tomorrow. We can discuss this while eating,¡± Fang Yao asked calmly.


    ¡°Ah?¡± Yin Xun was a little tempted when she heard about the blue lobster. It was a blue lobster. She had seen the president eat this many times in novels. It was said that this kind of lobster was a mutated species. Only one in two million was born like that. It was something that you might not be able to eat even if you had money.


    Yin Xun wanted to agree, but she hesitated. It was not good for her to freeload, especially since the other party was eating such precious ingredients.


    ¡°The blue lobster tastes good, and it¡¯s rare to be able to eat it. Do you really not want to try?¡± Fang Yao saw Yin Xun¡¯s hesitation and tempted her.


    It was a blue lobster. If she missed it, she might not be able to get it again. To be honest, Yin Xun really wanted to try it. She swallowed her saliva. Forget it, she would freeload one more time. In a few days, she would find a gift for him.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s settled then. I¡¯ll head over tomorrow. Give me Si Fan¡¯s relevant information. Thank you.¡± Yin Xun thanked Fang Yao from the bottom of her heart.


    It was indeed accurate to say that there was meat to eat when you follow a big shot.


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s reaction, Fang Yao could not help but laugh. It seemed that he found out how to handle her in the future.


    After saying goodnight to Fang Yao, Yin Xun threw all the bad things that happened at home to the back of her mind. She emptied her head and rested for the night.


    The next morning, she was woken up by her phone ringing.


    After picking up the call, Yin Mo¡¯s anxious voice came through the phone. ¡°Sister, I¡¯m sorry. I was wrong. I apologize for angering you yesterday.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows in surprise. Yin Mo actually called her to apologize. She looked out of the window. The sun was still rising from the east. She thought that the sun might be rising from the west today.


    ¡°Yin Mo, what do you mean?¡± Yin Xun asked in a low voice. She did not believe that Yin Mo had really realized her mistake and called her to apologize.


    Based on her understanding of Yin Mo, there was definitely something else going on.


    ¡°Sis, I know I was wrong, but Dad and Mom still won¡¯t let me out. Can you help me plead with them and ask them to let me go? Si Fan is really in trouble. He needs my help!¡± Yin Mo¡¯s tone was very anxious and she even sounded like she was about to cry.


    ¡®As expected¡¯, Yin Xun thought. She knew it.

 Chapter 95 - 95 Risk Your Life

    95 Risk Your Life


    Yin Xun said coldly, ¡°Yin Mo, this is between you and our parents. It has nothing to do with me. If there¡¯s nothing else, don¡¯t call me again. I¡¯m very busy.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun was about to hang up when he heard Yin Mo say anxiously, ¡°Sis, don¡¯t hang up! You have to help me. Dad and Mom dote on you so much. In addition, I¡¯m locked up at home because of you, so as long as you plead for me, Dad and Mom will definitely let me out.¡±


    Was Yin Mo pushing all the blame on her? Yin Xun rolled her eyes.


    ¡°Did Dad and Mom tie you up with chains or seal the doors and windows?¡± Yin Xun asked indifferently.


    ¡°No,¡± Yin Mo replied.


    ¡°Since they didn¡¯t, just leave. It¡¯s not your first time doing this anyway,¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    Yin Mo paused for a moment. After a few seconds, she said, ¡°Dad said that if I dared to sneak out, he would stop my pocket money.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°You¡¯re already so old. Go and earn some money yourself or ask Si Fan for it. Didn¡¯t you spend a lot of money on him in the past?¡±


    She did not expect Yin Mo to be stumped by pocket money, which surprised Yin Xun. She thought that with Yin Mo¡¯s love for Si Fan, even cutting off her limbs would not stop her from looking for Si Fan.


    ¡°But I need Daddy to give me money now,¡± Yin Mo said shyly.


    ¡°Oh, if that¡¯s the case, then stay at home obediently.¡± This was a good thing for Yin Xun. How could she help Yin Mo? After all, a stupid teammate like Yin Mo might stab her in the back at any time.


    However, Yin Mo did not intend to give up. Seeing that Yin Xun did not want to help, she continued, ¡°Sister, if you don¡¯t help me, I¡¯ll have to think of a solution myself.¡± Yin Mo suddenly lowered her voice, as if she had made a decision.


    ¡°Whatever,¡± Yin Xun said and hung up.


    Yin Mo listened to the beeping sound on the other end of the phone. She did not expect that even after she apologized to Yin Xun, she would still ignore her.


    They did not feel like biological sisters at all. Yin Mo felt a little sad that her sister was so cold to her when she was in trouble.


    Then, she called Si Fan. It seemed Si Fan might be busy. He only picked up at the last second and asked impatiently, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Yin Mo told Si Fan about how Yin Xun did not care about Xing Cheng and how she was scolded by her parents because of this and how her personal freedom was now restricted.


    ¡°Fan, what do you think I should do? I¡¯ve always stood on my sister¡¯s side to persuade them, but I was scolded by all of them. Even my parents are on my sister¡¯s side. They¡¯re still angry with me and won¡¯t let me out of the house.¡± Yin Mo said aggrievedly, ¡°I can¡¯t save Xing Cheng, and my father doesn¡¯t want to lend you money. What should we do now?¡±


    ¡°Look, I told you that your parents are biased toward your sister, but you didn¡¯t believe me. Would you believe me if I said that, if you don¡¯t resist now, it won¡¯t be long before all the Yin family¡¯s assets will be taken away by Yin Xun? She¡¯s going against you on all fronts now. When she gets hold of the Yin family¡¯s assets, the first thing she¡¯ll do will be to chase you out of the Yin family,¡± Si Fan said in a low voice.


    Yin Mo was stunned for a moment. Although she wanted to say that it would not be like this, judging from her parents¡¯ attitude toward her and Yin Xun, it was not impossible.


    She said aggrievedly, ¡°Fan, you¡¯re indeed the only one who treats me the best in this world. You¡¯ll always help me, right?¡±


    Si Fan softened his voice and comforted her. ¡°Of course, Mo¡¯er. We¡¯ll be a family in the future. I¡¯ll definitely help you.¡±


    ¡°Then what should I do?¡± Yin Mo asked gratefully.


    ¡°Although your parents are biased toward Yin Xun, you are their daughter after all. So, if you risk your life, they will definitely agree to your request.¡±


    ¡°First, threaten your father into lending me some money. As long as my company can get through this, we won¡¯t have to worry about Yin Xun snatching the Yin family¡¯s assets anymore. When the time comes, I will be able to protect you.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Mo hesitated when she heard that she had to risk her life. If she really lost her life, she would have nothing left.


    She was a little nervous. She deliberated for a moment and asked, ¡°But how can I risk my life? What if I really die¡­¡±


    ¡°I told you to pretend, not to really die.¡± Si Fan frowned and said, ¡°You can¡¯t leave the house now, right? You just have to cut your wrist gently, of course, you don¡¯t have to use too much strength. If you bleed a little, they will definitely send you to the hospital. With that, not only will you be able to come out to see me, but you can also help me get some funds.¡±

 Chapter 96 - 96 Yin Mo Attempted Suicide

    96 Yin Mo Attempted Suicide


    Si Fan¡¯s tone became gentler. He guided Yin Mo step by step. ¡°Mo¡¯er, it¡¯s all my fault for not being strong enough to protect you better. But don¡¯t worry, as long as I survive this crisis, I will definitely protect you in the future.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I believe you, Fan¡­¡± Before Yin Mo could finish, there was an interruption on the other end of the call.


    ¡°Brother, what are you doing? Are you not done yet?¡± It was a girl¡¯s voice.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯m accompanying Xiaxia in the hospital now. She¡¯s not feeling well. I¡¯ll wait for your good news.¡± Si Fan hung up after saying that.


    ¡°Okay¡­¡± Yin Mo listened to the beeping sound on the phone and lowered her eyes in disappointment. She had a lot to say to Si Fan after not seeing him for a night, but Si Fan hung up on her. She looked at her wrist and fell into deep thought.


    At this moment, Yin Xun had already arrived at Donggang City.


    She found Yu Tu and instructed him, ¡°Director Yu, I have something else to do these few days and might leave the city for a while. I¡¯ll have to trouble you to take care of things here.¡±


    Yu Tu quickly replied, ¡°President Yin, don¡¯t worry. I will keep an eye on things. That person called Bai Bing came to work today. He is still fine now. I will also keep an eye on him.¡±


    ¡°Alright,¡± Yin Xun said in a deep voice. ¡°Let him come into contact with the finance department directly. As for what¡¯s appropriate, I think Director Yu should know.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know how to deal with it. I promise I won¡¯t disappoint you.¡± When Yu Tu heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, he immediately understood what she meant. His admiration for Yin Xun increased, and the way he looked at her became more and more respectful.


    After checking on Donggang City and giving Yu Tu a few more instructions, Yin Xun returned to her office and called Mary.


    ¡°I asked you to help me hire a female bodyguard. How is that going? Do you have a suitable candidate?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mary¡¯s voice was a little awkward as she said, ¡°President Yin, although there are many people who came to apply for the job, there are not many suitable candidates. The few people who have come recently are either thinner than you and cannot even beat me, or they are too rich and it is not convenient for them to move around.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡°But President Yin, why are you so obsessed with female bodyguards? I have many male bodyguards, and they are all good at fighting. They would be a better choice to protect you,¡± Mary asked in confusion.


    This was the first time she had heard of someone hiring a female bodyguard.


    Yin Xun sighed. ¡°It¡¯s more convenient to have a female bodyguard. No matter where I go, they can always follow me. But that¡¯s not the same for male bodyguards.¡±


    Mary said, ¡°That¡¯s true. Oh right, President Yin, a woman called Wang Ran was looking for you just now. She left when she saw that you were not around. I asked her to wait for a while, but she did not wait. She didn¡¯t say why she was looking for you.¡±


    ¡°Wang Ran?¡± Yin Xun guessed what she wanted. ¡°Okay, I understand. You don¡¯t have to worry about this.¡±


    After talking to Mary, Yin Xun was about to call her lawyer, but just as she took out her phone, Wu Li called. She pressed the answer button and immediately heard Wu Li¡¯s panicked voice.


    ¡°Xun, your sister attempted suicide! I can¡¯t get through to your father¡¯s phone. Your brother is in school now. Can you come over? We¡¯re in the hospital now.¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned. Yin Mo actually attempted suicide? How was that possible? She was the female protagonist of the original novel. In the original novel, she experienced so many things but did not commit suicide. Why did she suddenly not want to live anymore?


    ¡°Mom, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll be there soon. What did she do? What did the doctor say? Is her life in danger?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Wu Li said anxiously, ¡°She slit her wrist and attempted suicide. I don¡¯t know how the situation is now. Anyway, when I found out, she was already bleeding a lot and even fainted! She just entered the ward and hasn¡¯t come out yet. I¡¯ve been waiting at the door. Xun, do you think something will happen to your sister? She was depressed last night and was even more abnormal this morning. It¡¯s all my fault. I didn¡¯t notice her abnormality and didn¡¯t care about her more¡­¡±


    In the end, Wu Li began to blame herself. Yin Xun felt that she was about to cry when he heard her voice.


    Yin Xun suddenly thought of what Yin Mo had said when she called him this morning. She said that if she did not care to help her, she would think of a solution herself.


    It seemed that this was her so-called solution.


    Yin Xun was speechless. Yin Mo was really brainless. She would even go this far to help Si Fan. If she guessed correctly, Si Fan must have asked her to do this.


    Listening to Wu Li¡¯s bitter words, Yin Xun knew that it was useless for her to say anything now because Wu Li¡¯s mind was filled with the issue of Yin Mo¡¯s attempted suicide. It was impossible to make her listen.

 Chapter 97 - 97 Can’t Be Provoked

    97 Can¡¯t Be Provoked


    ¡°Mom, don¡¯t blame yourself. Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll go over now,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. ¡°Besides, you won¡¯t die so quickly if you cut your wrist. Your life won¡¯t be in danger if you are discovered early.¡±


    Wu Li was still not at ease. Yin Xun did not expect to comfort Wu Li with just a few words, so she did not say anything else and hung up the phone to rush to the hospital.


    When she arrived at the hospital, Yin Xun saw Wu Li sitting at the door of the ward. Her eyes were a little red, and it was obvious that she had just cried. However, when she saw Yin Xun, she still smiled. ¡°Xun, you¡¯re here.¡±


    ¡°Mom, where¡¯s Yin Mo?¡± Yin Xun looked at the ward, but there was no one inside.


    !!


    ¡°She¡¯s awake. I think she went to the pantry. The doctor said that she¡¯s fine. She just needs to rest for two days. It¡¯s just that she¡¯s not in a good mood. The doctor asked me to follow her more and not provoke her. When she went out, she didn¡¯t let me follow her. I was afraid that she would do something stupid again, so I didn¡¯t follow her. I¡¯m waiting for her here,¡± Wu Li said.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°I knew she would be fine.¡±


    How could Yin Mo commit suicide? Unless her character had changed, how could her character change halfway through a novel that had already ended?


    ¡°Sigh, although she¡¯s fine, we should try our best not to provoke her. I know that she¡¯s insensible and always makes you angry, but for my sake, please give in to her for the next few days. If she really doesn¡¯t behave, in a few days, when her emotions stabilize, I will get back at her for you, okay?¡± Wu Li said carefully.


    Seeing Wu Li like this, Yin Xun agreed. As long as Yin Mo did not provoke her, she would naturally not do anything to her either.


    ¡°I¡¯ll go look for her and see how she¡¯s doing,¡± Yin Xun said and walked toward the pantry.


    Before she left, Wu Li instructed her, ¡°Xun, be a little more tactful with your words. She can¡¯t be agitated now!¡±


    ¡°I understand,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Yin Mo was staying in the VIP ward, so there were not many people on the entire floor. Yin Xun went to the pantry to take a look, but Yin Mo was not inside.


    At this moment, a doctor happened to pass by, so Yin Xun asked about Yin Mo.


    Because this hospital was specifically used by the rich, and the Yin family was a large company, they often had business with this hospital, and the doctors here basically knew them. The doctor told Yin Xun that she saw Yin Mo walking upstairs. After thanking the doctor, Yin Xun also walked upstairs.


    Yin Xun walked to the pantry door and was about to enter when she heard Yin Mo¡¯s voice.


    Her voice was anxious and a little teary. ¡°Fan, I¡¯m sorry. My mother couldn¡¯t contact my father. He might be busy now. When my mother contacts him, I promise to get the money for you!¡±


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, I believe you. You will definitely help me ask for money, right?¡± Si Fan¡¯s tone was gentle.


    However, Yin Xun could hear the suppressed impatience in his voice.


    ¡°Alright, I got it. You can go back first. It won¡¯t be good if your mother becomes suspicious. I have to go and see Xiaxia too. She has been having a fever these past few days and her health is getting worse.¡± Si Fan began to chase Yin Mo away.


    Yin Mo said anxiously, ¡°Is Xiaxia¡¯s condition already so serious? Then I¡¯ll go with you to see her!¡±


    ¡°No, you shouldn¡¯t. You know that Xiaxia has always had a problem with you. What if her condition worsens after seeing you? You should go back first. Be good. Our investment is more important now. I¡¯ll look for you after I settle Xiaxia¡¯s matters.¡± Si Fan was starting to get impatient.


    Yin Mo still wanted to say something, but she sensed Si Fan¡¯s impatience and did not say anything.


    At this moment, a sickly girl walked out of the ward next door and walked toward the pantry. Yin Xun quickly took a few steps to the side and stayed out of sight.


    The girl called out as she walked, ¡°Brother Si Fan, where did you go?¡±


    The girl walked to the pantry. She must have heard the voices inside and walked in.


    Yin Xun crossed her arms and leaned against the wall to listen to the commotion inside. She planned to look for Yin Mo after the people inside finished their discussion. It would be bad if she ruined their get-together.


    When the girl went in, Yin Xun soon heard the girl¡¯s questioning voice. ¡°Brother Si Fan, why are you with her?!¡±


    Hearing the girl call him ¡°Brother Si Fan¡±, Yin Xun finally remembered who she was. The sickly girl who had just entered was Si Fan¡¯s biological sister, Si Xia.


    She had only seen her in novels before and this was the first time she saw Si Xia in person.

 Chapter 98 - 98 Watching A Drama

    98 Watching A Drama


    This person was a supervillain in the original work. She was a weak and sickly girl who loved her brother. Unfortunately, because of her blood relation with Si Fan, she could not be with him, so she could only vent her anger on Yin Mo.


    In the original work, Si Xia tortured Yin Mo a lot in the later chapters. She had vented all her anger on her. Although Si Fan knew about it, he showed no intention of interfering and had always silently allowed her to do so.


    Now that the most important characters in the original novel were gathered together, it seemed that there was some drama to watch.


    Yin Xun sneered and continued to lean against the wall to listen to the commotion inside.


    !!


    Si Fan explained, ¡°Yin Mo isn¡¯t feeling well either. She came to the hospital for a checkup and I happened to bump into her, so we chatted for a while longer. I was planning to go back and look for you.¡±


    Si Fan was obviously trying to distance himself from Yin Mo now. Yin Mo appeared not to read the situation and explained, ¡°That¡¯s right, Xiaxia. Your brother and I happened to bump into each other. I have to go back to the ward later.¡±


    Si Xia did not seem to believe it and pressed Si Fan again, ¡°Brother Si Fan, is that really the case?¡±


    ¡°Of course. Xiaxia. You¡¯re not in good health, why did you come out?¡± Si Fan quickly changed the topic.


    Yin Xun, who was listening outside, wanted to click her tongue. Yin Mo was Si Fan¡¯s girlfriend. The two of them were an official couple. However, Yin Mo could really put on a facade if it was to avoid arousing suspicion.


    ¡°Brother, I want to drink milk tea. Can you buy it for me?¡± Si Xia whined to Si Fan.


    ¡°So you want to drink milk tea? Xiaxia, go back first. I¡¯ll buy it for you, okay?¡± Yin Mo¡¯s tone was gentle.


    Yin Xun continued to complain in his heart. Yin Mo¡¯s health was not good, yet she still had to help Si Xia buy things. She wanted to please her so badly.


    Yin Mo thought that Si Xia and Si Fan were just ordinary siblings. She knew that Si Xia had always disliked her, so he always tried to please the girl. Unfortunately, Si Xia did not appreciate it.


    As expected, Si Xia rejected Yin Mo. ¡°What do I have to do with you? Why should you buy milk tea for me? Who knows if you¡¯ll poison me?¡±


    After saying that, she wheedled to Si Fan. ¡°Brother Si Fan, I want to drink milk tea. Can you help me buy it?¡±


    Si Fan never knew how to reject Si Xia, so he agreed. ¡°Xiaxia, wait for me in the ward. I¡¯ll go buy it for you now.¡±


    After saying that, he turned to Yin Mo. ¡°Mo¡¯er, you should go back first. I¡¯ll look for you after I¡¯m done.¡±


    ¡°Brother, I want to talk to Yin Mo for a while. You go first. It¡¯s not appropriate for you to listen to girls talking.¡± After Si Xia finished speaking, Yin Xun saw Si Fan being gently pushed out by Si Xia.


    The moment Si Fan came out, Yin Xun hid in a room at the side to avoid unnecessary trouble.


    Si Fan gave Si Xia a few more instructions before turning to leave.


    After Si Fan left, Si Xia returned to the pantry. Next, Yin Xun heard the most classic words in an Overbearing Boss novel.


    Si Xia revealed her true colors when Si Fan wasn¡¯t around. She warned Yin Mo in a low voice, ¡°Yin Mo, I advise you to stay away from my brother. He¡¯s so outstanding. You¡¯re not worthy of him at all. Don¡¯t embarrass yourself any further!¡±


    Yin Mo said aggrievedly, ¡°Xiaxia, I know you don¡¯t like me, but your brother and I are truly in love. What can I do to make you accept me?¡±


    Si Xia spat and snarled, ¡°Ptoeey, I¡¯ve never seen a woman as shameless as you. I¡¯ve already said that my brother doesn¡¯t love you anymore, but you¡¯re still pestering him! Let me tell you, no matter what you do, it¡¯s useless. He won¡¯t marry you in the end. I advise you to have some self-awareness!¡±


    Yin Xun was listening with great interest to this romantic drama. It would be even better if he had a handful of melon seeds.


    Yin Xun was engrossed in listening when she suddenly heard a bang. At the same time, Yin Mo screamed. Yin Xun guessed that Yin Mo had been hit.


    The next second, Yin Mo said aggrievedly, ¡°Xiaxia, why did you hit me?¡±


    ¡°Me? Hit you?¡± Si Xia laughed coldly. Then, there was another ¡°bang¡±. This time, no one screamed. Yin Xun had no doubt that Yin Mo had been hit again. After all, she was not someone who knew how to retaliate.


    The next second, she heard Si Xia run away in tears. Yin Xun saw her leave and walked out of the room next door.


    She was a little surprised. Did Yin Mo actually hit her back?


    ¡°Sis, why are you here?¡± Yin Mo was still sobbing. When she saw Yin Xun coming over, she asked in surprise.


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Just as Yin Xun spoke, he heard Si Fan¡¯s angry voice not far away.


    ¡°Yin Xun, it¡¯s fine if you make things difficult for me, but how dare you hit my sister!¡±

 Chapter 99 - 99 A Melodramatic Script

    99 A Melodramatic Script


    Yin Xun turned around and saw Si Fan rushing toward her with red eyes and a furious expression.


    Si Xia followed behind him, her face covered in tears. There was a red mark on the left side of her face, as if someone had slapped her.


    Seeing the two of them like this, Yin Xun immediately understood what was going on. The two slaps she heard just now, one had landed on Yin Mo¡¯s face and the other on Si Xia¡¯s face.


    Yin Xun did not want to meet Si Fan and Si Xia, so she had gone into hiding. She just wanted to say a few words to Yin Mo, but in the end, she still bumped into these two people. Bah, how unlucky.


    Yin Mo¡¯s saintess persona did not allow her to really hit Si Xia. Si Xia understood Yin Mo¡¯s temperament and sent Si Fan away to meet Yin Mo alone. Then, she plotted this melodramatic plot to frame her.


    Si Xia pretended to be beaten up by Yin Mo and went to complain to Si Fan. When Si Fan saw his weak and helpless sister being beaten up, he would naturally vent his anger on Yin Mo. Anyway, no matter how he badly treated Yin Mo, in the end, as long as he casually said a few good words¡ªno, there was no need for even that¡ªYin Mo would forgive him.


    However, there was an error in this melodramatic script. No one expected Yin Xun to be here.


    Yin Xun was standing at the door of the pantry, so the first person Si Fan saw when he came over was her.


    Si Fan walked over angrily. When Si Xia saw Yin Xun, she was stunned for a moment. She was about to stop Si Fan when she heard Si Fan continue angrily, ¡°Yin Xun, even if you¡¯re Yin Mo¡¯s sister, I won¡¯t let you off today. I¡¯m going to teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents!¡±


    As soon as she heard that Yin Xun was Yin Mo¡¯s sister, Si Xia had no intention of stopping him. As long as it was someone related to Yin Mo, she did not want to let them off the hook. Hence, she stood on the spot and smiled as she watched Si Fan approach Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun knew that Si Fan would not shy away from hitting women, but she did not expect Si Fan to push the blame on her even though they were in a hospital and Yin Mo was right beside her. He rushed over like a mad dog.


    The next moment, Yin Xun rushed into the pantry and closed the door.


    Si Fan did not expect Yin Xun to lock him outside and he pounded on the door crazily. At the same time, he shouted, ¡°Yin Xun, how dare you hit my sister? Why don¡¯t you dare to come out and face me? Do you know that you deserve a beating?¡±


    ¡°Sis, why are you closing the door? Hurry up and open the door. Fan is just scaring you. He won¡¯t really hit you!¡± Yin Mo saw that Yin Xun had closed the pantry door and quickly asked her to open the door.


    ¡°Shut up, or I¡¯ll beat you up!¡± Yin Xun glared at Yin Mo as if she was an idiot.


    Yin Mo knew that Yin Xun meant what she said, so she quickly shut up.


    As Si Fan was loudly pounding on the door, and his voice was very loud whereas Yin Mo¡¯s voice was soft, he did not hear Yin Mo¡¯s words.


    Yin Xun heard Si Fan raging like a lunatic outside. If it was anyone else, they would have been discovered by the hospital staff. However, Si Fan was not discovered. As expected of the male protagonist of the original novel, he had the aura of a protagonist.


    Seeing that Si Fan had no intention of giving up, Yin Xun sneered and took out her phone to call the police. After she told the police the address and reason, Yin Xun hung up the phone. Yin Mo, who was at the side, started to act like a saintess again.


    ¡°Sister, how can you call the police? You¡¯ll make things difficult for Si Fan. He¡¯s the CEO. If he keeps a criminal record, it will affect the company! If you¡¯re afraid that he¡¯ll hit you, I¡¯ll help you plead for leniency. He¡¯ll listen to me. Si¡­¡±


    Yin Mo was about to remind Si Fan when Yin Xun quickly covered her mouth.


    At this moment, Yin Xun really wanted to kill Yin Mo. Si Fan was outside at this moment. Looking at his furious expression, how could he be persuaded by Yin Mo? Yin Xun did not want to put her life in the hands of fools and lunatics.


    ¡°Shut up. If you speak again, I¡¯ll tell Si Fan that you and Xing Cheng are having an affair. Guess what he¡¯ll think?¡± Yin Xun gritted his teeth.


    Seeing Yin Mo nod with red eyes, Yin Xun let go of her.


    She went to the side to get a full pot of hot water before coming to the door. She prepared herself and suddenly opened the door. Si Fan rushed in due to inertia. Yin Xun dodged to the side and raised the kettle in front of her. She expected Si Fan to attack her.


    After Si Fan rushed into the pantry, he quickly turned around and raised his fist to swing at Yin Xun. In the end, he hit the kettle. Yin Xun let go and the boiling water inside instantly spilled all over him.


    ¡°Ah¡ª¡± Si Fan cried out in pain and stopped moving.

 Chapter 100 - 100 The Price of Provoking Me

    100 The Price of Provoking Me


    Yin Xun took this opportunity to quickly step forward. She crouched and struck Si Fan¡¯s lower body ruthlessly. Then, she grabbed Si Fan¡¯s arm with one hand and turned around. She pulled hard and threw him over her shoulder perfectly. Si Fan fell to the ground with his face facing upward.


    Yin Xun¡¯s actions could be said to be merciless. She knew that if she showed any mercy, she would be the one beaten to the ground in the end. Moreover, she only knew this move. There was no choice. It was used to deal with perverts. She had practiced it in her previous world, but she did not expect to use it on Si Fan.


    Everything happened in just a few seconds, so fast that Si Xia and Yin Mo did not even have time to react.


    Si Xia was still watching the show, wondering what Yin Xun would look like after she was beaten up. She did not expect Si Fan to be the one beaten down in the end. Her legs went soft and she fell to the ground, screaming crazily, ¡°Ah¡­¡±


    Yin Mo was already stunned by Yin Xun¡¯s actions. She was suddenly pulled back to reality by Si Xia¡¯s scream. She rushed toward Si Fan and asked while crying, ¡°Fan, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere¡­¡±


    The scream was ear-piercing. Yin Xun glared at Si Xia coldly and said in a deep voice, ¡°Shut up!¡±


    ¡°You actually dared to hit my brother! You vicious woman, I-I¡¯m going to call the police and arrest you!¡± Si Xia was good at talking, but her body instinctively retreated and looked at Yin Xun with fear in his eyes.


    ¡°Call the police? Alright!¡± Yin Xun suddenly laughed. ¡°You don¡¯t have to do anything. I¡¯ve already called the police. I think the police will be here soon. We¡¯ll let the police judge and see whose problem it is.¡±


    ¡°Speaking of which, your brother, the eldest son of the Si family and the CEO of a company, tried to hit a woman but failed. In the end, he was knocked down by a woman. Let¡¯s see who¡¯s embarrassed if word gets out.¡± Yin Xun smiled brightly and seemed to be in a good mood.


    ¡°We haven¡¯t even met before this and you¡¯re saying I hit you?¡± Yin Xun smiled and walked toward Si Xia.


    Si Xia was sitting on the ground and could not stand up at all. She moved backward and looked at Yin Xun in horror. ¡°You, you¡­¡±


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s cold eyes, Si Xia was suddenly speechless.


    She wanted to ask Si Fan for help, but when she looked over, Si Fan was still lying on the ground, and Yin Mo was beside him.


    ¡°Yin Mo, you slut, quickly come and stop your sister!¡± Si Xia¡¯s eyes lit up as she shouted for help.


    When Yin Mo heard Si Xia¡¯s cry for help, she had no choice but to temporarily abandon Si Fan and run toward Si Xia. Then, she stood in front of Si Xia and stretched out her hands, making the gesture of a hen protecting its chicks.


    ¡°Sister, don¡¯t make any more mistakes. You¡¯ve already called the police. If you hit anyone again, you¡¯ll be arrested! Apologize to Fan and Xiaxia quickly. They¡¯ll forgive you!¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were red and filled with tears.


    Yin Xun looked up and smiled. ¡°Sure.¡± Then, he turned around and walked toward Si Fan.


    At this moment, Si Fan was lying on the ground with his eyes open. He had already recovered. Although his body was in pain, it was not to the extent that he could not get up. It was just that he felt embarrassed to be beaten by a woman.


    Yin Xun walked into the pantry again and looked at Si Fan in disdain. She pulled Si Fan¡¯s hair and dragged his upper body up, making him sit and look at her.


    ¡°Si Fan, let me tell you. I, Yin Xun, am not an idiot like Yin Mo who can be manipulated by anyone. If you dare to provoke me, you will have to bear the price.¡± After saying that, she lowered her head and whispered into Si Fan¡¯s ear, ¡°If I wanted to deal with your sister, do you think it would be as simple as slapping her? Her heart is foul and needs to be replaced. As long as I want to, there are many ways to make her suddenly die without anyone knowing.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Si Fan¡¯s eyes widened.


    He wanted to look for Yin Mo, but his hair was in Yin Xun¡¯s hand and she used a lot of strength. He felt like his scalp was about to be pulled off and he could not move at all.


    ¡°Sister, what are you doing? Let go of Fan!¡± Yin Mo, who was outside, realized that something was wrong. Yin Xun had clearly said that he was going to apologize to Si Fan, but why were the two of them so close to each other on the ground? An envious feeling surged in her heart. She immediately rushed over. When she saw Yin Xun let go of Si Fan, she hurriedly stood between the two of them.


    Yin Xun casually took out a tissue from the tissue box beside him and wiped her hands. At the same time, she gave Si Xia a friendly and gentle smile.


    Although her expression was gentle, for some reason, Si Xia was still frightened by her smile.


    ¡°Who called the police just now?¡± At this moment, the police came out of the elevator. When they saw Yin Xun and the others, they asked.

 Chapter 101 - 101 Called The Police

    101 Called The Police


    ¡°Officer, it¡¯s me! You¡¯re finally here. That guy just said that he wants to kill me!¡± Yin Xun¡¯s expression promptly changed when she saw the police officer appear. She pretended to be frightened and covered beside the police. At the same time, she pointed at Si Fan.


    The police officer saw Si Fan sitting on the ground with his body drenched. His exposed skin was red and even his hair was a mess. The officer turned around and looked at Yin Xun, who was beside him. Yin Xun was clean and tidy from head to toe. She did not look like she had been beaten up at all.


    He could not help but frown in confusion. Could the truth be the opposite?


    ¡°Officer, she¡¯s lying! She was the one who attacked my brother and even threatened to kill me!¡± Si Xia instantly regained her strength when she saw the police. She stood up from the ground and went over to complain to the police.


    Afraid that the police would not believe her, she pointed at Yin Mo and said, ¡°Yin Mo, you saw it just now, right? It was your sister who attacked my brother. Hurry up and tell the police!¡±


    When Yin Mo heard this, she pleaded with the police, ¡°Officer, my sister already knows her mistake. She won¡¯t do it again. Please go easy on her¡­¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    At this moment, her blood pressure was instantly maxed out. Seeing Yin Mo pleading for her with such seriousness, she felt like vomiting blood. What kind of stupid ally was this?!


    She took a deep breath and pointed above her head as she said to Yin Mo, ¡°There are surveillance cameras here. If the police officers don¡¯t believe me, they will check the surveillance cameras. You don¡¯t have to distort the truth.¡±


    She had spotted it before she called the police. There was no surveillance in the pantry. In other words, there was no evidence of what she had done, so she was not afraid of the police investigating.


    Besides, she was just defending herself.


    The police would not listen to the one-sided words of the few people present. Instead, they investigated the surveillance footage and took evidence from Si Fan. Finally, they brought Si Fan and Yin Xun back to the police station for interrogation.


    As for Yin Mo and Si Xia, this matter had nothing to do with them, so they were allowed stay in the hospital and not worry about it.


    Before Yin Xun left, she talked to Wu Li.


    ¡°Xun, what¡¯s going on?¡± Wu Li was already worried about Yin Mo. Now that she saw Yin Xun being taken away by the police, she could not help but break into tears.


    Yin Xun looked at Wu Li, who was crying, and finally understood why Yin Mo loved to cry so much.


    She quickly comforted Wu Li. ¡°Mom, don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m fine. I¡¯ll be back soon. I¡¯ll tell you the exact reason when I get back. Anyway, don¡¯t worry, Yin Mo is fine.¡±


    After comforting her, Yin Xun left with the police.


    When they arrived at the police station, the police interrogated the two of them. Yin Xun told them everything except for the fact that she had attacked someone.


    Si Fan refused to admit that he tried to hit her. He wanted to explain that Yin Xun had hit him; the pain in his lower body was proof. However, he cared about his dignity and felt that it was really embarrassing to be beaten up by a woman to this extent. If others found out, they might laugh at him.


    Therefore, Si Fan thought for a moment and did not mention that Yin Xun had hit him. Yin Xun had already expected that Si Fan would not say anything. After all, to Si Fan, dignity was too important.


    The conclusion of the interrogation was that Yin Xun was cleared and could go home, but Si Fan was detained for a few days for deliberately provoking her.


    Yin Xun knew that such a small matter was not a problem for Si Fan. It was possible that he would be released from prison early. After all, his connections were there. Of course, Yin Xun¡¯s purpose in calling the police was not to put Si Fan in jail, but to send him a warning.


    Before leaving the police station, Yin Xun thought that since she was already here, she might as well visit Xing Cheng.


    Yin Xun was a little surprised when she saw Xing Cheng.


    Xing Cheng, who had always paid attention to his image in the past, looked haggard and listless. He looked like he was in a very bad state.


    When he was first sent to the police station by Yin Xun, he believed that he had not done anything serious and would be able to get out soon. Therefore, not only was he not afraid, but he was also acting haughty. However, he did not expect to be tricked by Wang Ran just as he was just about to get out of prison, and that he would get sued for rape.


    He had given Wang Ran money back then, and Wang Ran promised not to find trouble with him. He did not expect that after so long, just when he was about to forget about her, Wang Ran had actually kept so much evidence and sued him out of the blue. He was unprepared, and the evidence was conclusive. He had just left the prison when he was arrested again.

 Chapter 102 - 102 I Won’t Bother You Anymore

    102 I Won¡¯t Bother You Anymore


    When he was first thrown in prison, he was not worried. He believed that his family¡¯s power would bail him out before long. To his dismay, not only did no one show concern for him for a long time, but his father even sent a letter telling him to stay in prison obediently and wait out his sentence!


    That would require him to be sentenced to seven years of prison. Seven years. If he was really imprisoned for that long, he would be derailed from society by the time he was released. At that time, what was the point of him getting out at all? He was the only son of the Xing family and had a bright future. Was he really going to be ruined by Wang Ran?


    Xing Cheng felt very indignant now, but that could not change anything. He still could not get out. At this moment, he was in a sorry state.


    Therefore, when he saw Yin Xun, not only was he no longer as glib as before, but he even asked Yin Xun gloomily, ¡°What are you doing here? Are you here to mock me?¡±


    Yin Xun crossed her arms and said nonchalantly, ¡°As expected, you¡¯ve revealed your true nature now. Actually, you never liked me at all. The reason you were so eager to woo me is actually because of your bet with Si Fan, right?¡±


    Xing Cheng¡¯s expression instantly froze. He stammered and retorted, ¡°What bet? What are you talking about? I don¡¯t understand. If you want to mock me, just say it. Don¡¯t accuse me of such things.¡±


    ¡°Xing Cheng, don¡¯t think that everyone is as stupid and easy to fool as Yin Mo. You got someone to kidnap me and went to the company to pursue me. Your goal is to announce to the world that I¡¯m with you. It doesn¡¯t matter if I¡¯m willing or not. As long as the outcome is right, you win,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Xing Cheng¡¯s expression changed. He wanted to explain, but when he opened his mouth and saw Yin Xun¡¯s indifferent eyes, he immediately swallowed his explanation. The words that came out of his mouth became a question. ¡°How did you know?¡±


    ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, this is a secret between the two of you. Regarding how I found out, I think you should have already guessed it. Xing Cheng, you¡¯ve been carefree since you were young, so your personality is rather simple. Si Fan is different. He¡¯s experienced a lot since he was young. I think you can feel that he¡¯s not the same as you.¡±


    Yin Xun shrugged and did not answer Xing Cheng¡¯s question directly. Instead, he let Xing Cheng think for himself.


    However, it was because of this that Xing Cheng understood something else.


    Of course, he knew Si Fan¡¯s character better than anyone else. After all, the two of them had done many things together. As for the matter of wooing Yin Xun, Si Fan had provoked him into agreeing. At that time, he did not take it to heart. After all, even if he lost a little money, it did not matter. The money was still given to his good brother.


    However, later on, Si Fan realized that he was not that concerned about pursuing Yin Xun. Or perhaps Si Fan felt that Yin Xun had become a real threat to him, so he urged him to deal with Yin Xun.


    It was obvious that Si Fan had a grudge against Yin Xun. He had only met Yin Xun a few times and already asked him to deal with Yin Xun directly. If Xing Cheng succeeded, Si Fan would have one less competitor. If he failed, Si Fan would also be able to get money from him.


    He had always known that Si Fan loved to plot and scheme, but he did not expect him to scheme against his own friend to this extent. The idea of pretending to be a kidnapper to capture Yin Xun and later acting as a hero to save her was Si Fan¡¯s idea!


    He thought about how kind he was to Si Fan in the past. As long as Si Fan was short of money or in trouble, he would help him. He thought that Si Fan at least treated him differently. At least Si Fan would treat him as a friend. He never expected that Si Fan would scheme against him in the end.


    ¡°I understand what you mean,¡± Xing Cheng said with a gloomy face. ¡°The case with Wang Ran, he was the one who revealed it to you, right? In the past, he was the one who helped me deal with the skeletons in my closet. Wang Ran¡¯s case was no exception. I never thought this matter would suddenly be brought up again. And it happened right as I was released from prison.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Yin Xun had not expected Xing Cheng to pin the blame on Si Fan for Wang Ran¡¯s matter. This was a little beyond her expectations.


    However, after thinking about it, it made sense. As a reader, she used to read these things from a third-person perspective, so she knew a lot of the details. However, the characters who lived in the book would not know all this.


    ¡°It¡¯s obvious. I don¡¯t think you need my confirmation.¡± Yin Xun neither admitted nor denied it. She let Xing Cheng guess for himself.


    ¡°Alright, I understand. Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t bother you anymore,¡± Xing Cheng said fiercely.


    After receiving Xing Cheng¡¯s reply, the corners of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth curled up slightly. Wonderful, this was the outcome she really wanted.

 Chapter 103 - 103 I Know Better Than Anyone

    103 I Know Better Than Anyone


    ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s part ways here. We won¡¯t meet again.¡± After saying that, Yin Xun turned around and made to leave.


    ¡°Wait!¡± Xing Cheng suddenly called out to her.


    Yin Xun stopped and turned around to look at Xing Cheng.


    Xing Cheng regained some of his usual composure. He raised his chin slightly and said confidently, ¡°Yin Xun, since Si Fan is our common enemy now, why don¡¯t we make a deal?¡±


    ¡°Go on.¡± Yin Xun looked at him calmly and did not agree immediately.


    Xing Cheng said, ¡°Help me find Wang Ran and ask her to withdraw the lawsuit and let me out. How about I tell you all Si Fan¡¯s secrets? Si Fan is not an ordinary person. He¡¯s not easy to deal with, but as his former good brother, with my help, you definitely won¡¯t lose to him!¡±


    It was a good plan. If Yin Xun had not known things in advance, she might have agreed. Unfortunately, she already knew Si Fan much better than Xing Cheng, so there was no need to agree to this deal.


    She sneered. ¡°Not interested.¡±


    Seeing Yin Xun turn around and leave, Xing Cheng immediately panicked. The only person who could let him out now was Yin Xun. Only Yin Xun could help him.


    He could not help but shout, ¡°Since you¡¯re not interested in Si Fan, what about your sister? Si Fan is with her not because he likes her, and it¡¯s also not only because of the Yin family¡¯s assets. He¡¯s actually targeting Yin Mo¡¯s life!¡±


    Yin Xun had obtained the results she wanted, so she did not intend to continue paying attention to Xing Cheng. Faced with Xing Cheng¡¯s roar, she acted as if she did not hear him and walked out.


    What a joke. She already knew the fate of everyone in this book, especially regarding the love-hate relationship between Si Fan and Yin Mo. She was even their fan back then.


    She also knew that Si Fan and Si Xia were not biological siblings. There was something wrong with Si Xia¡¯s body. It would not be long before Si Fan would ask Yin Mo for her blood and internal organs. She had read the original novel, so how could she not know?


    Yin Xun took out her phone to check the time, but she saw Wu Li¡¯s message.


    The content of the message was asking her about what happened, and whether it was serious, and if she needed Yin Cheng¡¯s help.


    Seeing the contents of the message, Yin Xun¡¯s heart felt warm. It felt good to have her mother¡¯s concern. This strengthened her belief in protecting the Yin family. Of course, that excluded Yin Mo.


    Yin Xun called Wu Li and told her that she was fine. Wu Li told her that Yin Mo was fine as well, but she was constantly crying and clamoring to find Si Fan.


    Yin Xun could tell from Wu Li¡¯s tone that she was suppressing her anger.


    Perhaps it was because she had just seen Yin Mo attempt suicide that she did not dare to say anything too harsh. She could only comfort Yin Mo gently. Yin Xun could not help but admire Wu Li¡¯s good temper. Her daughter was already like this, but she could still be so gentle.


    ¡°Mom, Yin Mo is fine. She attempted suicide because Si Fan asked her to do so. She wants you and Father to fork out money to support Si Fan. If you don¡¯t believe me, just wait and see. When Father comes back later, she will ask for money,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. ¡°You don¡¯t have to care too much about her. She won¡¯t do anything stupid. If there¡¯s nothing else, you can go home.¡±


    ¡°How did you know about this?¡± Wu Li asked in surprise.


    Yin Xun said calmly, ¡°Didn¡¯t you see it just now? Yin Mo and Si Fan were together. I heard it outside the pantry when I went to look for her.¡±


    ¡°That kid would actually do such a thing for Si Fan?! Alright, Xun. Mommy understands. It¡¯s been hard on you, having to encounter so many things. Go back and rest quickly. You don¡¯t have to worry about this matter. Mommy will settle it.¡± Wu Li sighed and said helplessly.


    ¡°Alright, call me if anything happens,¡± Yin Xun said and hung up.


    Yin Xun turned around and looked at the police station. Since she had already gotten what she wanted from Xing Cheng, it was useless to keep Wang Ran around. It seemed like it was time to send her overseas.


    She did not leave her phone number with Wang Ran. Ever since they met that day, the lawyer had been taking care of Wang Ran. She was afraid that if she left her phone number, Wang Ran would cause her trouble. Hence, Yin Xun called the lawyer.


    ¡°President Yin, Wang Ran said that she does not want to go overseas anymore, but she would not say the reason. She only said that she wants to talk to you personally. From the looks of it, it seems to be very important,¡± the lawyer said.


    ¡°Okay, where is she now?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    The lawyer replied, ¡°She went to look for you, but she asked me not to follow her. She said that she will only talk to you alone. If I¡¯m not mistaken, she should be near your company now.¡±


    ¡°Okay, I understand.¡± After Yin Xun hung up the phone, she hailed a taxi at the entrance of the police station and planned to return to the company.

 Chapter 104 - 104 Completely Crushed

    104 Completely Crushed


    Yin Xun, who had just returned to the company, was summoned by Yin Cheng before she could ask the receptionist if Wang Ran had dropped by. Yin Cheng said that he had something very important to discuss with her.


    When Yin Xun arrived at Yin Cheng¡¯s office, Yin Cheng was on the phone. He seemed to be in a bad mood.


    ¡°Look at how much we¡¯ve spoiled her. She can even attempt suicide. Tell her that in the future, she can like whoever she wants and do whatever she wants. I don¡¯t care anymore!¡± Yin Cheng said angrily.


    Yin Xun could tell that Yin Cheng was on the phone with Wu Li. Who else could make him so angry other than Yin Mo?


    She sat on the sofa at the side and quietly watched Yin Cheng make the call.


    When Yin Cheng saw Yin Xun, he nodded and gestured for her to wait. Then, he continued to say to Wu Li, ¡°Tell her that you asked me to deal with Si Fan. If she breaks up with Si Fan, I¡¯ll help her out. If she doesn¡¯t, then they¡¯ll have to come up with a solution themselves!¡±


    It was obvious that Yin Cheng was furious. After hanging up the phone, he drank half a cup of tea and heaved a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Xun, what do you think about your sister?¡± Yin Cheng touched his forehead and asked Yin Xun. At this moment, he was so angry with Yin Mo that his head hurt.


    He did not expect Yin Mo to attempt suicide after being locked up for a day just so she could threaten him into helping Si Fan. People always said that daughters were their father¡¯s warm little cotton jackets. Why was his cotton jacket so black-hearted and leaky?


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Dad, this question is not simple. Is Si Fan really short of money now? He bet a lot of money with Xing Cheng back then. Now that Xing Cheng has lost, as long as he brings up the bet, shouldn¡¯t he be rich?¡±


    ¡°A bet? What do you mean?¡± Yin Cheng did not understand what Yin Xun meant.


    Yin Xun nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. Xing Cheng chased me because of this bet. The two of them bet a lot of money on it. Since Xing Cheng lost, Si Fan can claim his earnings.


    ¡°Dad, if you give Si Fan money because he¡¯s Yin Mo¡¯s boyfriend now, you won¡¯t be able to do anything if he refuses to pay you back. It¡¯s not like Si Fan is actually desperate. Since you have a way to deal with this, just tell Yin Mo about it. They won¡¯t bother you anymore.¡±


    Thinking of Xing Cheng¡¯s current attitude toward Si Fan, Yin Xun sneered in her heart. Since there was already a rift between the two of them, she did not mind helping them completely crush their relationship. Xing Cheng had originally suspected that Si Fan had framed him for the money. If Si Fan really goes to ask Xing Cheng for money now, this misunderstanding would be confirmed. The two of them would never work together for their evil deeds again.


    Even if Xing Cheng still chose to work with Si Fan, there was already a barrier between the two of them. Xing Cheng would also be a time bomb who could betray Si Fan at any time.


    However, after hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Cheng¡¯s first reaction was not relief at having a solution to the problem, but instead, it was anger. ¡°What did you just say? Xing Cheng chased you because he made a bet with Si Fan? My daughter is so good, but he actually never even liked you! As expected, his taste is the same as his brain. It¡¯s just for show.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng was paying attention to the wrong thing. She was overjoyed that Xing Cheng was no longer pursuing her. If she still had such a suitor, there would be big trouble one day.


    ¡°Dad, didn¡¯t you say that you have something important to tell me? It¡¯s not about Yin Mo, right?¡± Since she had already suggested a solution for Yin Cheng, Yin Xun did not want to waste any more time on Yin Mo, so she quickly changed the topic.


    Yin Cheng frowned and said unhappily, ¡°Child, can¡¯t I look for you for no reason? What¡¯s wrong with that? Does a father have to make an appointment to see his daughter? Look at you. Do you only care about work every day? You don¡¯t even know how to take good care of yourself. Did you not eat well outside? You¡¯ve lost weight.¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. She instinctively raised a hand to touch her face. Had she lost weight?


    Recently, she often went to Fang Yao¡¯s house to freeload. She had clearly gained a few pounds, but why did Yin Cheng think that she had lost weight? Indeed, all parents in the world were the same. They would always see weight loss when they looked at their children.


    ¡°In the future, as long as you¡¯re not busy, come home and eat. Get your mother to prepare delicious food for you to nourish your body. Seriously, you¡¯re already so old, but you don¡¯t even know how to take good care of yourself.¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s tone was not very pleasant, but it warmed Yin Xun¡¯s heart. She enjoyed the feeling of being cared for and nagged by her parents. This made her feel much less lonely after coming to this world alone.

 Chapter 105 - 105 The Old One Is Here

    105 The Old One Is Here


    ¡°Okay,¡± Yin Xun agreed with a smile.


    Only then did Yin Cheng¡¯s expression finally lighten up. He straightened his face and started talking about serious matters. ¡°There¡¯s a business cocktail party at Suowei Hotel in half a month. All the elites and CEOs of the business world will be there. You just opened a new company. Do you want to participate?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up when she heard that there would be a business party. She asked, ¡°A business cocktail party? Will the CEO of Xiaoguo and Zhenku be there? My company will be done with the renovation in three days, but we haven¡¯t decided on our partners yet. I¡¯m worried about how to contact them.¡±


    ¡°Xiaoguo and Zhenku? Aren¡¯t these domestically-produced phones? Those brands aren¡¯t famous and not many people use them. If you need them, I can help you contact the bosses of P-Brand. They have been developing overseas and their cell phone technology has long matured. Compared to Xiaoguo and Zhenku, they are a better choice.¡±


    !!


    Although Yin Cheng did not understand the Internet, he knew one thing. It was important to choose the best partner. It would be much less troublesome in the later stages if they were already mature in all aspects.


    However, Yin Xun refused. ¡°Of course, I also know that P-Brand phones are the best choice, but they¡¯re a big factory. There¡¯s no way they will cooperate with a small company like mine that has just started. Even if my plan is feasible, they won¡¯t take this risk. To them, stability is the most important.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m competing with so many companies, especially with Si Fan¡¯s company directly. The chances of success are too small. What¡¯s more, I don¡¯t think domestic phones will always be so niche. Domestic phones will also get better and better. I can guarantee that it won¡¯t be long before the monopoly situation disappears. In the future, there will be a large boom, and domestic phones will also become mainstream.¡±


    ¡°Alright, you¡¯re different from your sister anyway. I can rest assured when you do things,¡± Yin Xun said seriously. If it were anyone else, Yin Cheng would only say that it was wishful thinking. However, since it was his daughter who said this, he felt that it made sense, so he did not say anything else.


    However, Yin Cheng still had some other things to instruct her about. ¡°Since you¡¯re going to discuss a collaboration, prepare your intention to cooperate before you go. Don¡¯t let them think that you¡¯re just doing it on a whim.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. I¡¯ve already made preparations.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Yin Cheng was very satisfied with Yin Xun¡¯s performance. The unhappiness caused by Yin Mo gradually dissipated, and a smile finally appeared on his face. Although his youngest daughter was insensible, his eldest daughter made him feel at ease.


    Suddenly, the office phone on Yin Cheng¡¯s desk rang. Yin Cheng picked it up. It was the security guard on duty. He said that he was looking for Yin Xun, so Yin Cheng handed the phone to her.


    ¡°President Yin, there is someone who wants to see you. He said that his name is Xing Guang, and he is Xing Cheng¡¯s grandfather. He said that as long as I tell you this, you will understand.¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. Xing Cheng¡¯s grandfather? Her first thought was that the old one had come seeking justice for the youngster.


    ¡°Who did he come with?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    The security guard replied, ¡°Other than him, there¡¯s one young man. He looks like a bodyguard.¡±


    It seemed that he was indeed here to seek justice. Yin Xun was not too surprised that he had come, but he was more surprised that he had only brought one person. It seemed that this person was not here to pick a fight, but to seek justice. Otherwise, he would not have only brought one person.


    ¡°In that case, let him come up,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    The security guard asked worriedly, ¡°Do you want me to get a few men over too?¡±


    ¡°Just find two or three. Wait outside. If there¡¯s anything, I¡¯ll call you in,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    Since the other party had brought someone over, she had to be prepared too.


    Who knew what Xing Cheng¡¯s grandfather would do? What if a fight broke out and she and her father were hurt? She was not the kind of person to play the hero for her pride.


    Of course, if they really fought, she could just shout and her people would come rushing out. That would definitely feel good. That was the power of a rich young lady.


    ¡°Who¡¯s there? You even asked the security guards to come up. Why? Is someone here to cause trouble?¡± Yin Cheng asked when he saw Yin Xun hang up the phone.


    ¡°Xing Cheng¡¯s grandfather brought a bodyguard with him. He might not have good intentions, so I made some preparations,¡± Yin Xun replied.


    ¡°Grandpa Xing? Xing Guang¡­¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s expression immediately darkened. ¡°His grandfather is not a good person. Although he¡¯s old, he doesn¡¯t have any self-awareness as an elder. He eats, drinks, and hires prostitutes. Other than gambling, he does everything. The reason Xing Cheng became like this is most likely because he learned it from him.¡±

 Chapter 106 - 106 Yin Xun Is Decent-looking

    106 Yin Xun Is Decent-looking


    ¡°Not only does this old man have a bad personality, but he also dotes on his children. It seems that we won¡¯t be able to stop today. I was wondering why Xing Li kept calling me yesterday. It turns out that he complained to his father. He didn¡¯t dare to come over and settle it himself, so the old man came to look for me. How embarrassing.¡±


    Hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s description of Xing Guang, Yin Xun immediately felt a little speechless. She finally knew why Xing Cheng was like this. It turned out that he had learned it from his grandfather.


    However, was Xing Cheng¡¯s grandfather really as big of a deal as Yin Cheng said?


    ¡°Since Xing Cheng and his grandfather have such personalities, is his father even more difficult to deal with?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    ¡°Xing Li¡­¡± Yin Cheng frowned and said, ¡°It¡¯s strange. Xing Li¡¯s son and father are both hooligans, but he¡¯s not bad. He¡¯s quite upright. At least he won¡¯t use despicable methods to do things.¡±


    Yin Cheng took a sip of tea and continued, ¡°It would be easier if it was Xing Li who came today. If he dares to cause trouble, I can chase him out directly. However, it¡¯s Xing Guang. He¡¯s old and has some strength. He¡¯s not easy to deal with.¡±


    ¡°Dad, it¡¯s alright. Leave this matter to me. You can just listen from the side.¡± Yin Xun comforted Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Since Mr. Yin is such an upright person, why are you talking about others behind their backs?¡±


    An elderly voice came from the door. The two of them turned around and saw a man with a weathered face and short black hair standing at the door. He was leaning on a walking stick. Behind him was a young man wearing a black suit and sunglasses. He had the aura of a gangster.


    Yin Xun did not close the door when she arrived. The people at the door had clearly heard their conversation. As for how much they had heard, she did not know.


    Although the old man did not introduce himself, Yin Xun could tell at a glance that he was Xing Cheng¡¯s grandfather.


    Not only did the two of them look similar, but even their frivolous auras were the same. The genetic inheritance was really comprehensive. There was no need to appraise their blood relationship.


    ¡°Elder Xing, you¡¯re mistaken. If it weren¡¯t for your grandson always provoking my daughter and your son calling me yesterday, I wouldn¡¯t have talked about them.¡±


    ¡°Provoke your daughter? Mr. Yin, you¡¯re mistaken. As far as I know, although my grandson is playful, he has never really bullied any girl. The reason he pursued your daughter was only that he liked her. What¡¯s wrong with that?¡± Xing Guang walked in without asking Yin Xun and Yin Cheng¡¯s permission.


    ¡°Elder Xing, you¡¯re an elder after all. Shouldn¡¯t you ask for the owner¡¯s permission before entering someone else¡¯s office?¡± Yin Cheng frowned.


    Xing Guang sneered. ¡°You just said that I¡¯m an elder. Since I¡¯m an elder, do I still need to ask you juniors? What, are you going to chase me away now?¡±


    ¡°If I chase you away, will you leave?¡± Yin Cheng said unhappily.


    ¡°Of course not.¡± Xing Guang was not straightforward, but he was also firm. ¡°I¡¯m here for my little grandson. I¡¯ll only leave after I settle this matter and receive a good answer.¡±


    ¡°Elder Xing, please take a seat,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Yes, although this little girl looks ordinary, she¡¯s still quite polite. At least, she¡¯s much better than her father.¡± Xing Guang nodded and walked to the sofa beside him to sit down.


    After sitting down, his gaze kept on Yin Xun. He kept sizing her up and muttered in his heart.


    Although Yin Xun was pretty and had a good figure, it was obvious that she did not know how to dress up. She was dressed so simply and did not look like a young lady at all.


    Xing Cheng always had good taste. The girlfriends he found were always dressed up gorgeously. Why did he fall for Yin Xun this time and even got himself sent to prison by her? The boy was really inferior to his grandfather in this aspect.


    Yin Cheng noticed Xing Guang¡¯s gaze. He walked up to Xing Guang and blocked his view of Yin Xun. He asked angrily, ¡°Elder Xing, even if you¡¯re an elder, it¡¯s not appropriate for you to keep staring at my daughter. She¡¯s not your Xing family¡¯s granddaughter-in-law.¡±


    ¡°Your daughter looks decent, but if she wants to be the granddaughter-in-law of our Xing family, she¡¯s not qualified. Therefore, your worries are unnecessary.¡± Xing Guang rolled his eyes at Yin Cheng.


    Hearing Xing Guang¡¯s words, Yin Cheng felt a surge of blood rush to his head. As he had suspected, Xing Cheng was a shameless person. This time, there was another shameless old man who had the nerve to say such things.

 Chapter 107 - 107 I Am Still A Child

    107 I Am Still A Child


    If not for his age, he really wanted to beat Xing Guang up.


    Yin Cheng tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said word by word, ¡°You¡¯re the one who¡¯s worried. My daughter doesn¡¯t like Xing Cheng at all. On the other hand, in order to pursue my daughter, your Xing Cheng stuck to her like a sticky candy and even used all kinds of despicable tactics. My daughter is still worried about how to get rid of him.¡±


    ¡°My grandson just felt that your daughter was fresh and wanted to play with her. After a while, he got tired of her and naturally left.¡± Xing Guang coughed twice and said nonchalantly.


    ¡°Unfortunately, he tried everything, but my daughter didn¡¯t even look at him. In the end, he reaped what he sowed and got himself sent to prison. What a pity¡­¡± Yin Cheng knew what Xing Guang cared about the most, so he used Xing Cheng¡¯s prison sentence to provoke him.


    !!


    Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was getting colder and colder, Yin Xun was afraid that Yin Cheng would actually fight with the other party. The other party was an old man. If her father really acted shamelessly, even the police would not be able to help them. Yin Cheng would be the one to suffer.


    To deal with such a scoundrel, he should be even more scoundrel than him.


    ¡°Dad, sit down and rest first.¡± Yin Xun smiled and comforted Yin Cheng. She did not mind what Xing Guang had just said at all. ¡°Elder Xing, I know that you came here today for Xing Cheng. However, as far as I know, Xing Cheng was arrested because he broke the law. What¡¯s the use of you looking for me? You should go to the police.¡±


    ¡°Young lady, don¡¯t think that I¡¯m gullible just because I¡¯m old. I¡¯ve already investigated. The reason my grandson is in prison is that you collected evidence behind his back and even instigated others to sue him! He¡¯s just a child. He¡¯s young and naive, but you schemed against him.¡± Xing Guang snorted.


    Yin Cheng could not help but say, ¡°You said that my daughter did it. Do you have any evidence?¡±


    ¡°Evidence?¡± Xing Guang tapped the ground twice with his walking stick before saying, ¡°It¡¯s easy to get evidence. Yin Mo told me everything. It was your eldest daughter who did it. Look at you. You have the same two daughters, but why is there such a huge difference between you? Look at Yin Mo. She¡¯s obedient and sensible. It¡¯s a pity that such a good girl is already with Si Fan. Otherwise, I would consider letting her be my granddaughter-in-law.¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s expression changed a few times. He did not expect Yin Mo to be the one who informed Xing Guang! It was not enough for her to threaten him with her own life, she even secretly told the Xing family secrets and caused trouble for him.


    As expected, the punishment of making her stay at home was too light. He should have sent her overseas to a private school so that she could not fool around.


    Yin Xun, on the other hand, did not have much of a reaction. She had long expected Yin Mo¡¯s actions. In any case, Yin Mo only harmed her own family. As long as such a useless teammate was still alive, she would not be safe for another day. It seemed like she had to make a decision sooner or later.


    ¡°Elder Xing.¡± Yin Xun glanced at Xing Guang and said indifferently, ¡°Did you come here just because you regret that Yin Mo couldn¡¯t become your granddaughter-in-law? While we¡¯re on the topic, why would a fly find feces smelly?¡±


    ¡°Little girl, you look like a decent person, but why are you scolding me? You have no etiquette. I¡¯m your elder!¡± Xing Guang could tell that Yin Xun was calling him a fly, so he immediately used a walking stick to knock her.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°You¡¯re already in your seventies or eighties. Why would you argue with ignorant children like me? I¡¯m a few years younger than Xing Cheng, and I¡¯m a child. Don¡¯t mind what children say.¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Xing Guang wanted to say something, but he thought that no matter what he said, he would be in the wrong. It was true that Yin Xun was younger than Xing Cheng.


    He decided not to argue with Yin Xun and snorted. ¡°I won¡¯t argue with you uncultured children. I¡¯m here to give you a chance to change your mistake. I advise you to quickly hand over the woman who harmed my grandson and sent him to jail. Otherwise, this matter won¡¯t end.¡±


    Xing Guang could not help but feel angry when he thought of Xing Cheng in prison.


    ¡°Harmed your grandson?¡± Seeing how unreasonable Xing Guang was, Yin Xun¡¯s voice turned cold. ¡°Do you know what your grandson did to that little girl?¡±


    Xing Guang coldly snorted and said, ¡°Of course I know. Isn¡¯t it just because he slept with her? It¡¯s not a big deal. Those women chased after him because they saw that he was rich. In the end, they took his money and turned against him. I¡¯ve seen many women like them. Each one is more shameless than the last. There¡¯s no need to be polite to them.¡±

 Chapter 108 - 108 Save Me

    108 Save Me


    Hearing Xing Guang¡¯s words, Yin Xun suddenly felt that anything she said was unnecessary. This kind of person was obviously stubborn. Even if she persuaded him nicely, he would only think that she was afraid of him.


    Before Xing Guang arrived, Yin Xun thought that Yin Cheng¡¯s evaluation of Xing Guang was subjective because Xing Guang was a senior. He should at least have some sense.


    Now, it seemed that he was even more unbelievable than Xing Cheng. Such a person was really not worthy of respect.


    ¡°Elder Xing, Xing Cheng was arrested because he broke the law. If he really didn¡¯t do anything wrong, why would the police arrest him? You¡¯re already so old. Can¡¯t you be more reasonable?¡±


    !!


    Yin Cheng was almost unable to suppress his anger. If Xing Guang said anything to Yin Xun again, he would not be able to help but attack him.


    ¡°Elder Xing, it¡¯s time.¡± Just as the atmosphere in the room dropped to a freezing point, the bodyguard suddenly walked in and bent down to say something to Elder Xing.


    When Elder Xing heard this, he stood up with the help of his bodyguard. He raised his walking stick and pointed it at Yin Xun. ¡°Young lady, in terms of family background and strength, your Yin family is inferior to our Xing family. As long as I say the word, your father should know what will happen to your family. I don¡¯t care what reason you have. I¡¯ll only give you a week. If my grandson isn¡¯t out in a week, don¡¯t blame me for making a move.


    ¡°I have nothing to say to people of your level. I¡¯m very busy and have something on. I have to go. Remember, if you can¡¯t do what I just said, your company can forget about the future!¡±


    After Xing Guang finished speaking, he quickly left with the help of his bodyguard.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Yin Cheng was about to speak when he was stopped by Yin Xun. Yin Xun shot him a look, but Yin Cheng did not say anything.


    Seeing Xing Guang leave, Yin Cheng slammed the table angrily and gritted his teeth. ¡°He¡¯s really not a good person. He¡¯s so unreasonable. No wonder that little brat Xing Cheng is the same. He learned it from him.¡±


    Yin Xun was not angry. Seeing that Yin Cheng was so angry that his face was red, she quickly comforted him. ¡°Dad, didn¡¯t I say that I¡¯ll handle this matter? Don¡¯t worry, I have a way to deal with them.¡±


    Yin Cheng raised his head and looked at Yin Xun. He sighed and said, ¡°Xun, it¡¯s not that I want to discourage you, but although the Xing family is not as rich as our Yin family, they have people in the bureaucracy. As long as they want to, it¡¯s easy for them to find trouble with our company. Work at the company will be forced to stop periodically. It won¡¯t be long before the Yin family¡¯s company collapses because of it.¡±


    At this point, Yin Cheng frowned and said fiercely, ¡°Xun, don¡¯t worry. If the Xing family really treats us like this, we¡¯ll fight against them. There¡¯s always a way to deal with them. Anyway, Dad won¡¯t just watch you get bullied.¡±


    As soon as Yin Cheng finished speaking, the office phone on the table rang again. Yin Cheng went to answer it. This time, it was the receptionist who was calling to look for Yin Xun.


    Yin Cheng handed the phone over to Yin Xun, and Yin Xun answered the call. She heard the receptionist ask her, ¡°President Yin, that girl called Wang Ran is here again. She looks a little out of sorts. Do you want her to come up?¡±


    ¡°Is she alone?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Yes,¡± the receptionist replied.


    ¡°Bring her up. Wait for me in my office. You can leave when I get there,¡± Yin Xun said and hung up.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun helplessly and asked, ¡°Who is it this time?¡±


    This was his office¡¯s phone number, but they were always looking for Yin Xun. It seemed like his daughter was busier than him. He had to reflect on himself. Had he been too relaxed recently, causing all his work to move to Yin Xun¡¯s place?


    ¡°Wang Ran, the girl who sued Xing Cheng. I don¡¯t know why she came to look for me. Dad, I¡¯ll go back to the office to take a look.¡± Yin Xun left after saying that.


    When she returned to the office, the receptionist just happened to be leading Wang Ran over.


    Wang Ran was in a sorry state. When she saw Yin Xun, it was as if she had seen a life-saving straw. She rushed toward Yin Xun.


    The receptionist was frightened. She thought that it was another Zhang Xin who wanted to do something to Yin Xun. She chased after Wang Ran in her eight-centimeter high heels. Unfortunately, she was a step too late. Wang Ran had already rushed in front of Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun reacted quickly and jumped out of the way. A moment later, Wang Ran knelt on the ground and hugged Yin Xun¡¯s thigh, crying for help. ¡°Miss Yin Xun, please save me!¡±

 Chapter 109 - 109 Another Garbage Teammate

    109 Another Garbage Teammate


    Wang Ran¡¯s sudden actions confused Yin Xun. She frowned slightly and asked, ¡°What happened?¡±


    ¡°President Yin, if there¡¯s nothing else, I will go down first.¡± The receptionist saw Wang Ran turn her head back to take a look, and she immediately understood that she should not listen to what the two of them were about to say, so she asked Yin Xun for instructions.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Yin Xun nodded and said to Wang Ran, ¡°Follow me.¡±


    Yin Xun brought Wang Ran to the office and closed the door. Then, she gestured for Wang Ran to continue.


    ¡°Miss Yin Xun, I¡¯m sorry. I¡­ I accidentally exposed myself! Now, they are threatening me, saying that if I don¡¯t listen to them, they will kill me. I really have no choice. Only you can help me. I¡¯m begging you, Miss Yin. You must save me!¡± Wang Ran¡¯s expression was terrified, and at the end of her sentence, she broke into tears.


    Yin Xun frowned. ¡°How did you expose yourself? Didn¡¯t I find a good place for you and give you a new SIM card?¡±


    From the beginning, Yin Xun knew that once Wang Ran sued Xing Cheng, Xing Cheng¡¯s family will definitely retaliate, given their background. Therefore, in order to protect her, Yin Xun specially prepared a residence with a security system for her. She even gave her a new SIM card to erase all information related to her.


    As long as she could hide from the Xing family in the country and leave for overseas after a while, Wang Ran would be completely safe. How did such a meticulous plan get exposed?


    Wang Ran said regretfully, ¡°I¡¯m sorry. It¡¯s all my fault for being too foolish. Initially, I stayed properly at the place you gave me and was waiting for you to send me overseas. But later, since I thought that since I¡¯m going overseas, I should call my friend to say goodbye.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Why was Wang Ran doing the same thing as Yin Mo?


    In the original text, Yin Mo was imprisoned by Si Fan. Then, Yin Rui risked his life to bring her out of Si Fan¡¯s villa. Originally, the two of them could leave the country smoothly. As long as they left the country, Yin Mo would be safe.


    However, what Yin Rui did not expect was that just as the two of them were about to leave, Yin Mo felt that she had let Si Fan know. She used her phone to call Si Fan, wanting to apologize and say goodbye to him. In the end, because of this call, their location was exposed. Soon, Si Fan¡¯s men found and captured them.


    Needless to say, Yin Mo was beaten up. The most miserable one was Yin Rui. Both of his legs were crippled by Si Fan and he was imprisoned.


    From then on, Si Fan tortured Yin Rui in front of Yin Mo every day. After torturing Yin Rui until he was half-dead, he forced him to take lethal drugs and finally discarded Yin Rui.


    In the end, even after Yin Rui¡¯s tragic death, Yin Mo did not blame Si Fan. Instead, she tried to approach him with a heart that could change him. After his friends and family died tragically, Si Fan realized that he had truly fallen in love with Yin Mo.


    Si Fan promised Yin Mo that he would only love her in the future and would never hurt her again. He asked her to forgive him and continue to be with him. Yin Mo was soft-hearted and agreed. In the end, Yin Mo¡¯s words left a deep impression on Yin Xun.


    Yin Mo had said to Si Fan, ¡°My punishment for you is that you must always treat me well in the future.¡±


    Si Fan killed Yin Mo¡¯s family and so many of her friends, but in the end, his punishment was only this.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun trembled. Yin Mo¡¯s saintly heart was too terrifying. She did not know if Wang Ran was such a person too. Regardless, after this current collaboration, she would never deal with such a person again. It would be easy for her to get cheated.


    Wang Ran was halfway through her sentence when she casually took out a tissue. She blew her nose and continued, ¡°I took out my previous SIM card and called my friends. I did not expect that my location would be exposed after just two calls. Not only did they find out my new number, but they even found the place where I am staying now. They threatened me and told me to quickly withdraw the lawsuit. If I didn¡¯t, even if I went overseas, they would still be able to find me and kill me. What should I do, Miss Yin? I¡¯m sorry. I know my mistake. Please help me!¡±


    After Wang Ran finished speaking, she looked at Yin Xun for help. She was really frightened and her body trembled slightly.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes. She was indeed as brainless as Yin Mo in the original novel.


    ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, you¡¯ve already thought of a solution, right? However, you¡¯re afraid of offending me again, so you didn¡¯t say it outright. Let¡¯s just act pitiful first.¡± Yin Xun sat lazily on the sofa beside her with her legs crossed and a calm expression on her face.


    When she heard that Wang Ran came to look for her earlier, she did not know what her motive was. However, after she spoke to the lawyer, she could guess what it was. It was just that she was not sure at that time. Now that she heard Wang Ran¡¯s words, she felt it was all but confirmed.

 Chapter 110 - 110 This Is The Person

    110 This Is The Person


    Wang Ran did not expect Yin Xun to see through her thoughts. Her face turned red, and she lowered her head and said weakly, ¡°M¡ªMiss Yin, how did you know¡­¡±


    ¡°So you really want to withdraw the lawsuit and let Xing Cheng out?¡± Yin Xun asked calmly.


    Wang Ran nodded. She knew that she was in the wrong, so she did not reply.


    ¡°Miss Wang, I admit that I¡¯m not a good person, but I¡¯ll keep my promise. Our agreement back then was for you to provide evidence to send Xing Cheng to prison, and I¡¯ll protect your personal safety. As long as Xing Cheng is successfully arrested, I¡¯ll send you overseas. Our first cooperation has succeeded. As for the second, I haven¡¯t sent you overseas yet, so even if you withdraw the lawsuit, it won¡¯t be considered a violation of the agreement. You can choose what to do.¡±


    !!


    Looking at Wang Ran, Yin Xun continued, ¡°But there¡¯s one thing. You¡¯ve already provoked the Xing family. Even if you choose to withdraw the lawsuit and let Xing Cheng out, can you guarantee that the Xing family won¡¯t touch you?¡±


    Xing Cheng was in prison and had fallen out with Si Fan. Yin Xun¡¯s goal had been achieved.


    As for whether Xing Cheng would come out of prison later, that was not in her consideration. Moreover, the Xing family¡¯s background was very strong. Xing Cheng would not really be locked up for too long. Even if Wang Ran did not withdraw the lawsuit, he would be saved eventually.


    In any case, Xing Cheng promised not to pester her anymore. It did not matter if he was released. On the contrary, Xing Cheng might even become Si Fan¡¯s opponent.


    Although Xing Cheng was not a bright person, he was furious. After being tricked by Si Fan, he would definitely not be able to take this lying down. This was going through Yin Xun¡¯s mind. Since Xing Cheng was no longer a threat to her and he would come out sooner or later anyway, she might as well do Wang Ran a favor and ask her to do something for her in return.


    Wang Ran immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. The Xing family only agreed to let her go because they had a favor to ask of her. Once Xing Cheng was released, her safety would still be uncertain.


    When she thought of this, Wang Ran immediately panicked. She continued to cry as she said, ¡°Then what should we do, Miss Yin?¡±


    Yin Xun lowered her head and thought for a moment. Then, she smiled and gestured for Wang Ran to come over.


    ¡°I¡¯m telling you to¡­¡±


    Wang Ran stayed in Yin Xun¡¯s office for a long time. When she arrived earlier, she was flustered, but when she left, she was calm and composed. She was like a completely different person.


    After Wang Ran left, Yin Xun stretched her body. Not only did Wang Ran¡¯s mistake not cause any trouble for her, but it also gave Yin Xun an idea. She knew how to deal with Xing Guang.


    It was still the same saying. To deal with a scoundrel, one had to be an even bigger scoundrel.


    After settling Wang Ran¡¯s matter, there were basically no more major issues remaining. Yin Xun revised the plan to find a partner, and it was soon time to get off work.


    Yin Xun drove back to the suburban villa. On the way back, she was still thinking about how to go with the flow and freeload at Fang Yao¡¯s house. Although the two of them had already agreed yesterday, it would not be good if she went over directly today.


    Unexpectedly, when she passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, the butler was already waiting for her at the door.


    Yin Xun drove the car to the butler and stopped the car to greet him. ¡°Uncle Butler!¡±


    The butler laughed as he replied, ¡°I knew that Miss Yin would come back at this time. Indeed, I guessed correctly. Miss Yin, Young Master is already waiting for you inside the house. You can park the car and come over at once. The big prawns are already prepared.¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡± Yin Xun agreed.


    After parking the car, Yin Xun went to Fang Yao¡¯s house. As soon as she entered the living room, she smelled the fragrance of fresh food. She looked inside and saw Fang Yao sitting on the sofa reading documents.


    Yin Xun greeted him.


    ¡°I¡¯ve already prepared the information you want. However, let¡¯s eat first. The food today has to be eaten while it¡¯s hot. It won¡¯t be the same when it¡¯s cold.¡± Fang Yao stood up and smiled at Yin Xun. Seeing Yin Xun nod in agreement, he led her to the dining room.


    This time, the two of them did not discuss business at the dining table. Instead, they enjoyed a delicious meal, which satisfied the butler.


    After eating, Fang Yao handed all the information related to Si Fan to Yin Xun. Yin Xun took a rough look and saw that it was indeed complete. Other than what she had read in the novels, there were also many things she did not know.


    Fang Yao was indeed a big shot. Not only did he investigate very quickly, but he was also very detailed.


    ¡°Do you want Si Fan¡¯s information just to deal with him? With your current strength, you don¡¯t seem to be able to fight him head-on.¡± Fang Yao was puzzled.


    ¡°Wait a minute.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes quickly scanned through the information. After a while, her eyes lit up. She moved to Fang Yao¡¯s side and pointed at a person¡¯s name. ¡°Look, look, I just want to find this person!¡±

 Chapter 111 - 111 You Know Him Very Well

    111 You Know Him Very Well


    Her sudden approach warmed Fang Yao¡¯s heart. He followed Yin Xun¡¯s finger and saw the name¡ªMi Jin.


    ¡°I know this person. I just forgot his name. You¡¯re indeed reliable. You even marked his information.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was a little excited. ¡°But do you know where he lives?¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun asking about a man¡¯s residence, Fang Yao¡¯s heart, which had just warmed up, felt like it had been splashed with a bucket of cold water. Yin Xun had never shown so much excitement for him. For some reason, he felt a little sour at this moment.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know, but I can check if you need it,¡± Fang Yao said coolly.


    ¡°Alright, thank you, Fang Yao. I¡¯ll repay you after I pull him over!¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Xun asked doubtfully, ¡°This is not a small matter. Why couldn¡¯t I find it online? I didn¡¯t want to trouble you, but I couldn¡¯t find this information after searching for a long time.¡±


    Fang Yao leaned back on the sofa and returned the documents to Yin Xun. ¡°This was from three years ago. The biggest online company now is Si Fan¡¯s Blue Fox. As long as he doesn¡¯t want others to know, it¡¯s easy to erase this matter online.¡±


    ¡°No wonder¡­¡± Yin Xun was suddenly enlightened. She lowered her head and thought for two seconds before asking Fang Yao, ¡°Then could he also have been¡­¡± Yin Xun made a throat-slitting gesture.


    Yin Xun was really worried. It had been so many years since the last time Mi Jin appeared in the public eye. Since then, there had been no news of him. Could he really have been taken out by Si Fan?


    From the information that Fang Yao had given her, there was only a rough clue about Mi Jin. When Blue Fox was first established, there were two major shareholders. One was Si Fan, and the other was his university classmate and roommate¡ªMi Jin.


    Si Fan was calculative. Although his results in his major were not good, he had many ideas and was able to start a business.


    As for Mi Jin¡ªa top student in his major¡ªthe program he wrote when he was still in school had already won a national award. It had to be known that other than local students, there were also many international students competing with him.


    It was because Mi Jin was so outstanding that Si Fan looked for him as a partner after graduation. The two of them started a business together. Mi Jin was in charge of technology, while Si Fan was in charge of the business. The two of them could be said to be a strong alliance. In less than half a year, their online company had a place in the national rankings.


    Seeing that the company was on the right track and getting stronger and stronger, Si Fan began to work with the other shareholders of the company to dilute the shares in Mi Jin¡¯s hands. Although Mi Jin was a genius in technology, he did not know how to do business. By the time he discovered Si Fan¡¯s little tricks, his position had already been taken over and he no longer had the right to make decisions in the company.


    Mi Jin was so angry that he directly fought with Si Fan in the company. In the end, Si Fan sent him to prison. Because of his relationship with Si Fan, no one dared to help him. He was convicted of starting a brawl and only came out after spending two months in prison.


    After being released from prison, Mi Jin was not satisfied but there was nothing he could do about Si Fan. Hence, he pulled out his investments and tried to open an online company to go against Si Fan. However, at that time, Si Fan¡¯s company had already matured, and he had a fair amount of connections in the industry. Everyone collectively isolated Mi Jin and even poached his investors.


    Without investment, although there were some difficulties in funding, it was not a hopeless situation. With excellent programming skills and a sideline business, Mi Jin could just barely support the company¡¯s operations.


    Mi Jin relied on his own strength to finally turn the tables. The company began to gradually stabilize.


    However, good times did not last long. For some reason, information about Mi Jin¡¯s company was suddenly leaked. It should have been his original idea, but it was snatched away by Si Fan and he sued him for plagiarism. Because of this, Mi Jin lost all his assets, causing the company to go bankrupt and finally disappear from sight.


    Yin Xun did not know if he had disappeared to avoid his debts or because he had been assaulted by Si Fan.


    When she was reading the novel, because Mi Jin was not the main character and the author only briefly explained this matter, Yin Xun did not pay much attention to him. It was not until Yin Xun came to this world and decided to open a company that she thought of this person. If nothing happened to Mi Jin, she could join forces with him.


    ¡°He left Blue Fox a long time ago and never appeared in public again. He¡¯s not a threat to Si Fan. Since he¡¯s not a threat, why would Si Fan spend so much effort to deal with Mi Jin?¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°No, you don¡¯t understand Si Fan.¡± Yin Xun shook her head.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and looked at Yin Xun meaningfully. ¡°Why? Do you know him very well?¡±

 Chapter 112 - 112 The Worst Family

    112 The Worst Family


    ¡°Of course.¡± Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Si Fan and I are sworn enemies. Obviously, I know his character very well. He¡¯s a deviant. Even if others aren¡¯t a threat to him, he won¡¯t let them off easily.¡±


    Afraid that Fang Yao would misunderstand, Yin Xun added, ¡°Of course, I heard this from my sister. She always unintentionally reveals some things about Si Fan to me.¡±


    Fang Yao just looked at her calmly with an inexplicable look in his eyes. It was impossible to tell if he believed her or not.


    Yin Xun lowered her head and put a piece of food into her mouth, pretending not to see Fang Yao¡¯s gaze.


    !!


    She could not tell Fang Yao that they were all characters in a book, and she had already read half of the story, so she knew the protagonists very well and even knew their endings. If she said that, Fang Yao would definitely think that she had mental problems. What if Fang Yao refused to work with her?


    The man was her sugar daddy. She could not lose her image in front of her sugar daddy.


    However, if she did not say anything, what if Fang Yao eventually believed that Si Fan was a good person and fell into Si Fan¡¯s hands in the end? Her losses would be too great.


    Yin Xun recalled how twisted Si Fan was in the original novel. She remembered that after Si Fan imprisoned Yin Mo, he forced her to watch him have sex with another woman. Of course, this was considered a light punishment. The worst thing was that Si Fan recorded the process of torturing the Yin family. When he had nothing to do, he hugged Yin Mo and watched it.


    He was already this horrible to his girlfriend, let alone this classmate who had fallen out with him. He probably would not be merciful. What if he imprisoned Mi Jin to satisfy his perverted mentality?


    ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about whether he was harmed by Si Fan or not. Even if he¡¯s fine now, it won¡¯t be easy to rope him in. He¡¯s already been betrayed several times,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. No matter how difficult it is for a genius of his level, I¡¯ll pull him over. As long as I try a few more times, I¡¯ll definitely be able to move him,¡± Yin Xun said excitedly. In fact, at this moment, she was already rubbing her palms together.


    With Mi Jin¡¯s ability, as long as he was pulled over, that man would definitely deal a heavy blow to Si Fan in the future.


    ¡°However, do you know the exact reason for the plagiarism incident? How could such good information be leaked to Si Fan? If it was done by an employee, Mi Jin should be able to find out. Why did it end up like this?¡± Yin Xun frowned in confusion.


    ¡°If it was an ordinary employee, he would naturally have investigated further. But what if it was his brother?¡± Fang Yao said in a deep voice.


    ¡°His brother? His brother leaked it?¡± Yin Xun was dumbfounded.


    It seemed that she was not the only one who had a useless teammate. Now, there was also Mi Jin.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yao nodded. ¡°At that time, Mi Jin invested all his savings into the new company. He planned to burn all his bridges and fight Si Fan. Originally, the company¡¯s development was quite smooth until his brother came to the company to look for him and asked him to give him an easy position.


    ¡°His brother was lazy. At first, Mi Jin wanted to refuse, but his parents used filial piety to force him to give his brother a position. Mi Jin couldn¡¯t win against his parents, and he thought that it shouldn¡¯t be a problem to support his brother, so he agreed. Before long, the company¡¯s confidential documents were leaked, and Mi Jin was sent to prison again.¡±


    ¡°So his brother returned the favor with ingratitude. He was bribed by Si Fan to steal Mi Jin¡¯s information, and then he betrayed Mi Jin. But even if the culprit was his brother, Mi Jin should have brought him to justice. Mi Jin could have sent his brother to prison. That way, his company could continue to develop. Perhaps he could even take the opportunity to take revenge on Si Fan.¡± After Yin Xun¡¯s initial surprise, she was puzzled.


    ¡°Mi Jin thought so too, so he called the police. However, his parents threatened him with death, arguing that his brother had never been to prison before. If he was sent to prison, his life would be ruined. They said that his brother needed to get a wife, and Mi Jin had already been to prison before anyway, so it wouldn¡¯t matter even if he went to prison again. His parents forced Mi Jin to confess to plagiarism,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°To think that there are such parents in the world. They¡¯re both their children, but they treat them differently.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes darkened. She said coldly, ¡°Actually, Si Fan must have found his parents and promised them a lot of benefits. That¡¯s why his parents did this.¡±


    Otherwise, she really could not think of any reason for her parents to do such a thing. In order to prevent her eldest son from going to jail, they forced their youngest son to admit to non-existent crimes.

 Chapter 113 - 113 Still Looking For Female Bodyguards

    113 Still Looking For Female Bodyguards


    ¡°There¡¯s no evidence, so I can¡¯t explain,¡± Fang Yao said calmly. ¡°Not long after that, his parents died in an accident. By then, Mi Jin was already in prison, so there was no turning back.¡±


    ¡°I realized that many people are tricked because of their relatives. The scariest thing is that their relatives still think that they were right.¡± Yin Xun sighed. She thought of her sister, Yin Mo, who was a heavyweight pig-brained teammate.


    ¡°What do you mean? I feel like something happened to you. Why are you so emotional?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and asked.


    Yin Xun shrugged. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just met an unreasonable old man today. He took advantage of his seniority and led his grandson astray. He¡¯s quite proud of himself.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded and looked at Yin Xun. ¡°You¡¯re talking about Xing Cheng and his grandfather, Xing Guang, right?¡±


    ¡°Ah!¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao in surprise. ¡°How did you know?¡±


    ¡°The circle is only so big, especially when it comes to things that aren¡¯t confidential. It¡¯s easy to find out,¡± Fang Yao said without changing his expression.


    ¡°That makes sense.¡± Yin Xun nodded. She thought that it was no big secret that Xing Guang visited today. Furthermore, as a big shot and her investor, it was normal for Fang Yao to pay more attention to her movements.


    ¡°Xing Guang is indeed very unreasonable. He¡¯s especially protective of his own people. Did he make things difficult for you?¡± Fang Yao asked casually.


    Yin Xun sighed. She picked up another piece of food and put it in her mouth. After swallowing it, she said helplessly, ¡°It¡¯s not really difficult.¡± Then, Yin Xun told Fang Yao about Xing Guang¡¯s arrival, but he deliberately omitted the arrival of Wang Ran.


    Fang Yao nodded and did not say anything else.


    Yin Xun did not intend to ask Fang Yao to comfort her. In her opinion, Fang Yao only needed to be her sugar daddy.


    However, there was one thing she needed to ask Fang Yao for advice. Yin Xun pondered for a moment before asking with a frown, ¡°Fang Yao, do you think there exists a belt as I¡¯m about to describe? As long as you click it, you can summon a full set of armor. It¡¯s best if you can also summon a mount that can turn into any type of transportation at will. This way, even if you are fighting several people at the same time, you won¡¯t be afraid.¡±


    ¡°A masked knight?¡± Fang Yao raised an eyebrow.


    ¡°You¡¯ve actually watched it!¡± Yin Xun was a little surprised. He did not expect Fang Yao, a CEO, to watch such a special children¡¯s film.


    ¡°I looked at it a few times when I was bored,¡± Fang Yao said lightly. ¡°I do have a belt and armor, but I don¡¯t have them combined. Moreover, I might be at a disadvantage if I wear armor to fight because it¡¯s inconvenient for me to move. After all, you don¡¯t have wires attached to your body, so you can¡¯t fly.¡±


    ¡°So that¡¯s how it is¡­¡± Yin Xun was a little disappointed. She thought that if something as strange as transmigrating into a book could happen, then this world could also have some fantasy things. It seemed that she was overthinking.


    ¡°Why would you suddenly have such thoughts?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Yin Xun wrinkled her nose and said, ¡°For self-preservation. There are too many bad people in this world. They would beat people up and kidnap them at the drop of a hat. It was pure luck that I managed to escape. What if I¡¯m not so lucky in the future and really fall into their hands?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s true. It¡¯s quite dangerous.¡± Fang Yao nodded. ¡°In that case, why don¡¯t you hire a few bodyguards?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not convenient to have male bodyguards. I¡¯ve already asked my secretary to hire female bodyguards, but the people who came are either too thin or too fat. In short, none of them are strong. They¡¯re all weak. They probably still need my protection when things get rough. It¡¯s too difficult,¡± Yin Xun said with a frown.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was like a depressed kitten, Fang Yao smiled and said, ¡°Are there no suitable candidates? If you need them, I have a few people here who I can recommend to you.¡±


    ¡°Yes, yes! The people you recommended definitely won¡¯t be bad.¡± Hearing that Fang Yao was going to introduce her, Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up. Her low voice from before was gone, and her tone was excited.


    ¡°However, even if we have bodyguards, we can¡¯t rely on them to protect us. The most important thing is to improve our physical fitness and be able to run when something happens. It¡¯s better to be safe than sorry.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. That¡¯s why I do my morning exercises every morning. It¡¯s so that I can run away if I can¡¯t win,¡± Yin Xun assured him with a smile.


    After dinner and going through the documents, Yin Xun said goodbye to Fang Yao and went home.


    After washing up, Yin Xun lay on the bed and recalled the conversation she had with Fang Yao. She suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to ask Fang Yao about something.


    Yin Xun walked to the balcony and looked across. Fang Yao¡¯s house was still lit, but the curtains were drawn, so no one could see inside.


    ¡°Fang Yao!¡± she whispered.


    She was just giving it a try. Unexpectedly, just as she finished calling out, the window opposite opened.

 Chapter 114 - 114 Have Bodyguards

    114 Have Bodyguards


    Yin Xun only wanted to give it a try, so she did not raise her voice. She did not expect Fang Yao to hear her. She was a little embarrassed. ¡°Um, I forgot to ask you just now. There¡¯s a cocktail party at Suowei Hotel next week. Will you be attending?¡±


    Fang Yao shook his head. ¡°I might be busy these few days. I don¡¯t know if I¡¯ll have time. I might not go.¡±


    ¡°Oh, alright then¡­ That¡¯s a pity. As my investor, I want my father to meet you. He has always admired you.¡± Yin Xun was a little disappointed. This was the best opportunity for the Yin family to get close to the Fang family.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    !!


    Had he overlooked something? If he had known, he would not have said anything.


    ¡°But it doesn¡¯t matter. We don¡¯t live far apart. We¡¯ll have plenty of opportunities to get to know each other in the future.¡± Yin Xun smiled and added, ¡°By the way, there¡¯s something I want to tell you. I¡¯ve decided to collaborate with Xiaoguo and Zhenku. I¡¯m going to meet them at the cocktail party. You¡¯re my investor. What do you think?¡±


    ¡°Those two are domestic brands. Their technology and popularity aren¡¯t very good. Although they can¡¯t compare to foreign brands at the moment, they have decent prospects. I think they can manage it.¡± Fang Yao thought for a moment before answering her.


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s words, Yin Xun smiled. As expected of her sugar daddy, he could see the essence of things directly.


    ¡°Since you¡¯ve agreed, it¡¯s a good decision.¡± Yin Xun smiled happily.


    Then, the two of them talked for a while before Yin Xun returned to her room to rest.


    Fang Yao was very efficient. The next day, just as Yin Xun woke up, Fang Yao sent a servant to deliver detailed information about Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin lived in a small city far away from the capital. Yin Xun needed to take a plane to get there. She was not sure how many days it would take for her to return, so she planned to wait for the company to finish renovating before going over.


    For the next two days, Yin Xun had been running back and forth between Donggang City and the new company. Fortunately, Si Fan was still in prison and had not come out. Yin Mo had not been causing trouble for her either. That was rare. Yin Xun had been dealing with the company¡¯s matters in peace for the past two days.


    Another day passed, and the renovation of the new company was finally completed. Yin Xun handed the matter of the new employees to Mary to handle. Then, seeing that there was nothing else, she instructed her not to leak the news to Si Fan. Then, she went to Donggang City and instructed Yu Tu to be on the lookout in case Si Fan caused trouble. After that, she returned to the villa. Not long after, Fang Yao brought two female bodyguards over.


    Fang Yao was very reliable. The female bodyguards looked powerful. Yin Xun was very satisfied and stayed back to let them stay in her villa.


    Early the next morning, Yin Xun brought two female bodyguards and planned to look for Mi Jin. However, before she left, she felt uneasy, so she found a few male bodyguards as well and walked down the road. Yin Xun was in front of the group, looking like a gangster leader.


    The driver sent them all to the airport. On the way, Yin Xun received a call from Yin Rui.


    ¡°Big Sister, do you know what happened to Second Sister? She ran away after being scolded by Mother and hasn¡¯t come back for the past few days. There¡¯s no news of her either.¡± Yin Rui asked curiously, ¡°Did you guys fall out?¡±


    Yin Xun frowned slightly. She had been busy with the company for the past few days and did not know what had happened at home. However, she thought about how she had gone to look for Yin Cheng a few days ago and Yin Cheng had said that he did not care about Yin Mo anymore. Could it be because of this?


    ¡°I haven¡¯t seen her for a few days. I¡¯m not sure,¡± Yin Xun said lightly. ¡°However, Si Fan is in prison. If I¡¯m not wrong, she should have gone to help Si Fan take care of Si Xia.¡±


    It was always like this in the original novel. Every time Si Fan was not around, Yin Mo would take care of Si Xia. Yin Mo did her best to take care of Si Xia, but Si Xia did not appreciate it. Every time, she would beat her up and curse her, but Yin Mo never retaliated. Back when she was reading the novel, Yin Xun had always hated Yin Mo¡¯s character for not fighting. Now that she had gotten used to it, it did not matter anymore. She would not bat an eye even if Yin Mo was beaten to death.


    ¡°Ah, Brother Si Fan is in prison? What¡¯s going on?¡± Yin Rui¡¯s gossipy heart was ignited.


    ¡°What does this have to do with you? Do you think you have too little homework? If so, I¡¯ll get Mom to apply for a tuition class for you,¡± Yin Xun reprimanded him as the eldest sister.


    ¡°I just felt sorry for Si Xia,¡± Yin Rui muttered softly.


    Hearing Yin Rui¡¯s words, Yin Xun became more vigilant and asked in a low voice, ¡°Why do you pity Si Xia? Are you on good terms with her?¡±


    This kind of thinking was too dangerous. Yin Xun was afraid that Yin Rui would end up like Yin Mo, thinking about the enemy.

 Chapter 115 - 115 Heart-to-heart Feelings

    115 Heart-to-heart Feelings


    ¡°Si Xia¡¯s mother passed away due to illness, and her father had an accident. Her health isn¡¯t good, so she¡¯s been hospitalized. She¡¯s lucky to have Brother Si Fan. Brother Si Fan is really hardworking. Not only does he have to keep an eye on his own company, but he also has to take care of the Si family¡¯s company. At the same time, he also has to take care of Si Xia. If it weren¡¯t for Brother Si Fan, Si Xia might not have lived until now.¡± Yin Rui sighed with emotion.


    When she heard Yin Rui say this, Yin Xun suddenly felt that something was wrong. Could Si Fan actually have such kindness? Although Si Fan was the adopted son of the Si family, because of his special status, he was a celebrity in the original novel. Should the truth not be that he wanted to monopolize the Si family¡¯s assets and harmed the Si parents?


    Si Fan had the death of countless people on his hands. Given his ruthlessness, there was no guarantee that Si Fan¡¯s parents were not at his mercy too.


    ¡°But I only met Si Xia once. Is Second Sister very close to her? She actually took care of her,¡± Yin Rui asked.


    ¡°Yes, that¡¯s great and all. They have a heart-to-heart relationship,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    She was not exaggerating. Yin Mo and Si Xia did have this kind of relationship.


    In the original text, Si Xia¡¯s health was not good, and she was so sickly that she was about to die. As Yin Mo¡¯s body was compatible with Si Xia¡¯s in every aspect, Si Fan kept Yin Mo in captivity and transfused blood to Si Xia whenever it was needed. Just transfusing blood was not so bad in comparison. Later on, Si Xia¡¯s heart could not take it anymore. Yin Mo was pregnant with Si Fan¡¯s child at that time, so Si Fan sent her to the operating table and put her into induced labor. Then, he ignored Yin Mo¡¯s health and replaced her heart, giving her originally healthy heart to Si Xia.


    Other than her heart, all the other internal organs that could be used had basically been replaced. Even after experiencing so many horrors, Yin Mo was still alive in the end. When Yin Xun saw this female lead¡¯s shining halo, she was close to being blinded.


    However, it was understandable. After all, this was abusive literature. If the story was not this extreme, it would not be fun.


    ¡°So, Second Sister has such a good relationship with the Si family. Since Si Xia likes her so much, she¡¯ll be happy with her marrying Brother Si Fan in the future.¡± Hearing Yin Rui¡¯s tone, he seemed very satisfied.


    Although Yin Rui sometimes felt that there was something wrong with Yin Mo¡¯s brain, the two of them were biological siblings after all. He still hoped that his sister could live happily.


    ¡°Mm, maybe.¡± Although Yin Xun knew the outcome, she did not intend to get involved in this matter. Even if she talked about it, Yin Mo would not believe her given her love for Si Fan.


    ¡°I was a little worried at first, but it seems that I don¡¯t have to worry anymore. Perhaps this is just her dumb luck.¡± Yin Rui sighed.


    ¡°Are you done with your homework? Why are you still thinking about someone else? Improve your results first. Otherwise, I won¡¯t be able to stop Dad from beating you up next time. I¡¯m going on a business trip and I¡¯m not sure how many days I¡¯ll be gone. Stay at home and take good care of Dad and Mom. If Yin Mo makes any more excessive requests, remember to tell me.¡±


    After that, Yin Xun gave Yin Rui a few more instructions, telling him to stop caring about those messy affairs and to study hard. Yin Xun fiercely displayed her elder sister¡¯s dignity, and finally hung up the phone while Yin Rui mumbled to himself.


    According to Yin Xun¡¯s observations, although Yin Mo was brainless, Yin Rui was still alright. He should be reliable. No matter what, he should at least be better than Yin Mo. If she had this talk with Yin Mo, Yin Mo would only say nice things, but not do anything in the end.


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun took a nap in the car and soon arrived at the airport.


    Yin Xun took a plane to H City and followed the address given by Fang Yao to a place in the countryside. There were buildings and bungalows here. They looked a little old and even poorer than Wang Ran¡¯s place.


    Mi Jin was currently blacklisted by the industry. Because no one could tolerate plagiarism, he could not find a job at all. He could only rely on anonymously writing programs for others. He could not earn much money. At least, he would not starve to death. Fortunately, he had a friend who was on good terms with him, who helped him find a place to stay and even helped him pay the rent.


    However, Yin Xun heard that his friend had mysteriously disappeared and could not be found. Mi Jin could no longer pay the rent and was already in debt for more than three months.


    The houses here all looked the same. Yin Xun and the bodyguards spent a long time finding Mi Jin¡¯s residence until she heard someone knocking on the door and cursing not far away.


    ¡°Mi Jin, how long do you plan to stay here with me? I don¡¯t know where that brat Chen Meng is. If he doesn¡¯t come back, no one will pay the rent. Do you know how much rent you owe me?! You¡¯re a young man, but you¡¯ve been defeated by such a small problem. Do you plan to be like this forever¡­¡±

 Chapter 116 - 116 Free Rent For Telling The Truth

    116 Free Rent For Telling The Truth


    When Yin Xun walked over, she saw a middle-aged woman in her forties standing at the door. She had one hand on her hip and the other pointing at the door in front of her as she cursed. However, although her tone was fierce, Yin Xun could sense that this woman did not have any ill intentions.


    The woman spoke a lot in one breath. After a while, the door in front of her slowly opened and a disheveled man in ragged clothes walked out. It seemed that this was Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin¡¯s skin was pale, almost bloodless. It was hard to tell how long it had been since he had taken care of himself. His hair was long, like a bird¡¯s nest, and he was wearing white house clothes. However, although he was messy overall, he was not dirty. His clothes were clean.


    At this moment, his expression was dispirited as he said weakly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Aunt Yu. I know that it¡¯s wrong to owe rent. Please give me some more time. I promise I¡¯ll make up for it. I haven¡¯t contacted Chen Meng in a long time. I¡¯m very worried. Even the police don¡¯t know where he went, so I can¡¯t move away. I have to wait for him here.¡±


    !!


    ¡°That kid Chen Meng likes to go out and fool around. Who knows where he went? Are you going to stay here for the rest of your life if he doesn¡¯t appear?¡± Yu Lin¡¯s expression was somewhat resentful.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, Mi Jin. It¡¯s fine if you cause trouble for me, but you also cause trouble for others. You¡¯re too much of a rascal!¡±


    As soon as Yu Lin finished speaking, another angry male voice sounded from behind. Yu Lin and the onlookers looked back and saw a man with a fierce expression.


    Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the man proudly raised his chin and walked in front of Mi Jin. ¡°Mi Jin, you ingrate. To think that I treated you so well back then and worked to pay for your school fees. In the end, you¡¯ve become capable and your wings have hardened, but now you don¡¯t recognize me as your biological brother! I didn¡¯t expect you to hide here, but what¡¯s the use of hiding from me? I still found you.¡±


    It turned out that this man was Mi Gang, Mi Jin¡¯s brother. He was the stupid teammate who caused Mi Jin to go bankrupt.


    ¡°Get lost. If I see you again, I¡¯ll beat you up!¡± Mi Jin, who was originally weak, suddenly became irritable the moment he saw Mi Gang. His originally pale face was now red.


    ¡°Oh my, you don¡¯t want to acknowledge me now that you¡¯re capable, huh? Back then, I worked hard to support you with your studies. Our parents died because of you, but what¡¯s that mean to you? Now that you¡¯re independent, you think I¡¯m a burden. Do you want to dump me? Let me tell you, don¡¯t even think about it. I don¡¯t have money anymore. Hurry up and give me cash!¡±


    Mi Gang pointed at Mi Jin and scolded, ¡°Everyone, did you see that? This unfilial son killed our parents. Now, he doesn¡¯t care about me, his elder brother. At least I know how to repay kindness. As for him, he doesn¡¯t even know how to say a good word!¡±


    Hearing Mi Gang¡¯s scolding, the surrounding people began to point at Mi Jin. Everyone believed Mi Gang¡¯s words.


    Yu Lin frowned and glanced at Mi Gang from head to toe. With her hands on her hips, she asked, ¡°Are you here to rent a house?¡±


    Mi Gang rolled his eyes at her and said arrogantly, ¡°I¡¯m here to ask my brother for money. If you¡¯re here to give me money, stay away. Otherwise, I¡¯ll hurt you!¡± After saying that, he turned to look at Mi Jin and continued, ¡°I¡¯ll only ask you to prepare the money for me today. Otherwise, I¡¯ll empty this house for you!¡±


    Mi Gang was still pointing at Mi Jin and scolding him. Yin Xun saw Yu Lin turn around and pick up a broom from the side. She raised it and hit Mi Gang. As she hit him, he yelled, ¡°This is my house. Do you think I¡¯m a housecat? How dare you touch my things! Since you don¡¯t want to rent a house, get lost!¡±


    Yu Lin¡¯s movements were so fast that Mi Gang did not even have time to react before he was hit by the wooden stick. Yu Lin was a little plump, so she had a decent amount of strength.


    Mi Gang was someone who regularly bullied the weak and feared the strong. When he saw that Yu Lin was brave enough to attack him, he only cursed, ¡°Y¡­you dare to hit others? Do you think I won¡¯t call the police?!¡± However, his body was already retreating a few steps away from Yu Lin.


    Hearing that he was going to call the police, Yu Lin was amused. She said indifferently, ¡°Alright, call the police. What did you say just now? You wanted to snatch my belongings and sell them. Where did you find the guts to touch my things? I¡¯m just protecting myself, do you understand?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t accuse me. When did I say I was going to sell your things? I said I was selling my brother¡¯s things. We¡¯re family. What does it have to do with an outsider like you? You hit me. That¡¯s illegal!¡±


    Mi Gang was furious. He raised his hand and wanted to hit Yu Lin, but he did not expect Yu Lin to hit him again. This time, the broom hit his arm. He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and a red mark instantly appeared on his arm.


    ¡°Will you say that I attacked him?¡± Yu Lin turned to ask the crowd. Seeing that no one was speaking, she slowly said, ¡°Anyone who tells the truth will be exempted from three months of rent.¡±

    The man closest to Yu Lin quickly said, ¡°Attacked him? Who attacked him? Didn¡¯t he hit himself with a stick? Not only that, he even tried to rob Sister Yu¡¯s things. He¡¯s too shameless!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. We¡¯re all witnesses. Let¡¯s see who the police will believe.¡±


    Immediately, the people around him testified for Yu Lin.


    Yu Lin raised his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet. Then, she slowly said, ¡°Your name is Mi Gang, right? You¡¯re the child who caused your brother to go to prison. Don¡¯t think that you can spout nonsense just because your parents are dead. Although I don¡¯t like the fact that Mi Jin owes me rent, you have to be fair. Don¡¯t accuse him of something he didn¡¯t do!¡±


    !!


    ¡°Mi Jin and my son are classmates. I saw with my own eyes how hard his life was when he was in school. In order to earn money for his living expenses, he had to go out to work in the middle of winter. His hands and feet were all frozen. Everyone knows that your parents are biased. He didn¡¯t get any help from your family and relied on himself to get into university.¡±


    ¡°But what about you guys? When you saw that he was successful, you went to squeeze him dry and drain his blood. In the end, you even framed him and caused him to go to jail. Bah, how shameless. He became like this because of your family members who are worse than animals! And you still have the cheek to ask him for money? Do you want me to give you a few sticks?!¡±


    Yu Lin was cheerfully scolding away. In order to pay less rent, the tenants next to her all spoke up for Yu Lin. All of them rubbed their palms together, looking like they wanted to fight.


    When Mi Gang saw this, he knew that he could not defeat so many people. He turned around and left.


    Seeing him leave, Yin Xun called three bodyguards over and whispered to them, ¡°Follow him and see where he lives. If he goes somewhere far away, find a place without surveillance cameras and beat him up.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± The bodyguard replied and followed quietly.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s not easy for everyone to earn money. I¡¯ll let you pay three months¡¯ rent less. You can leave now.¡± Yu Lin waved her hand and dispersed everyone.


    ¡°Aunt Yu, thank you.¡± Mi Jin frowned. His eyes were red, and he looked like he was trying his best to hold back tears.


    ¡°What¡¯s a young man crying for? Stop your tears. I wasn¡¯t helping you. If your brother dares to cause trouble in my territory, I don¡¯t care who¡¯s involved.¡±


    As soon as Yu Lin finished speaking, tears fell from Mi Jin¡¯s eyes. He lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake.


    Yu Lin immediately panicked but felt embarrassed to be seen through. She could only put on a fierce expression and say, ¡°Forget it, forget it. That brat Chen Meng is my son¡¯s classmate. You¡¯re friends with my son too. Since you want to wait for him here, then go ahead and wait. But remember, in the future, not only will you have to pay me back the rent, but you will also have to pay interest.¡±


    After threatening him, Yu Lin left. Mi Jin stood at the door for a while, then sighed and turned to close the door. Yin Xun then walked forward and greeted him politely, ¡°Hello, are you Mr. Mi Jin?¡±


    ¡°No, you¡¯re looking for the wrong person.¡± Mi Jin did not even look up. After saying that, he wanted to close the door.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡± Why did this scene sound so familiar?


    Fortunately, the bodyguard at the side reacted quickly and blocked the door. The bodyguard was too strong and Mi Jin could not close it no matter how hard he tried.


    ¡°Mr. Mi Jin, don¡¯t worry. We have no ill intentions. We came to look for you today because we want to cooperate with you. Let me introduce myself. My name is Yin Xun.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she passed the business card through the gap in the door.


    Other than Yin Xun, there was also a row of bodyguards standing outside the door. When Mi Jin saw this, he knew that he could not avoid it. He opened the door and took the business card. He looked down and said, ¡°Xintao Company? I¡¯ve never heard of it.¡±


    ¡°Our company has just been established and is not on the right track yet. This is also why I came to look for you.¡± Yin Xun glanced behind him and said, ¡°Our company is fully prepared now. We only lack an experienced programmer. I know your expertise, so I¡¯m here to invite you to join us. When you have time, we can talk. You can decide on the venue.¡±


    Mi Jin frowned and took a step back. ¡°Come in and talk then, but I don¡¯t want them to come in.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and said to the bodyguards, ¡°Wait for me here.¡± Then, she followed Mi Jin into the house.


    Because this was a house specially used for rent, Mi Jin only had a small bedroom where he lived. He had to go to the public washroom to wash up.


    The room was very messy, but it was not dirty. There was not even a speck of dust. Although Mi Jin was impoverished at this moment, he did not let loose on these things.

 Chapter 118 - 118 Our Relationship

    118 Our Relationship


    ¡°The room is only so big. Find a place to sit.¡± Mi Jin ignored Yin Xun and pulled out a chair from under the table before sitting down.


    Yin Xun glanced around the room and saw a chair beside her. She moved it over and sat down.


    ¡°Since you want to start an online company and came to look for me, I¡¯m sure you know all about me,¡± Mi Jin said calmly.


    ¡°I do. That plagiarism incident caused a huge commotion in the industry.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Mi Jin frowned. ¡°Plagiarism in this industry is a big taboo. Moreover, it¡¯s related to the Blue Fox Corporation. The Blue Fox is a giant in the industry. You coming to me is equivalent to taking a stand against the Blue Fox Corporation. The boss of this company is not easy to deal with.¡±


    ¡°I know that you were framed. This kind of thing is very common in business. I believe in your character and ability. You wouldn¡¯t really do such a thing. As for Blue Fox¡­¡± Yin Xun smiled faintly. ¡°It¡¯s business. As long as it¡¯s in the same industry, there will be friction. It¡¯s normal. I know the boss of Blue Fox Corporation, Si Fan. I¡¯ve always been enemies with him. I¡¯m not afraid of offending him. I¡¯m just worried that you¡¯ll be afraid of him.¡±


    ¡°Me, afraid of him?¡± Mi Jin sneered. ¡°If he were standing in front of me now, I would kill him without hesitation.¡±


    Mi Jin¡¯s eyes were filled with ruthlessness. It was obvious how much he hated Si Fan.


    That made sense. Mi Jin originally had a bright future, but it was all ruined by Si Fan¡¯s hands. Si Fan had caused him to go to jail twice. Even if there was no actual plagiarism, other companies would not want him because he had a criminal record.


    ¡°You said that you and Si Fan are enemies?¡± Mi Jin had not looked at the business card carefully just now. This time, when he looked down and saw the name ¡®Yin Xun¡¯, his face instantly darkened.


    He raised his head and stared at Yin Xun for a while before asking, ¡°Who is the second daughter of the Yin Corporation, Yin Mo, to you?¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s my sister,¡± Yin Xun answered truthfully.


    ¡°In other words, Si Fan is your biological sister¡¯s boyfriend and future brother-in-law?¡± Mi Jin laughed mockingly. ¡°So you¡¯re helping your brother-in-law vent his anger today? He made me unable to find a job and he¡¯s still not satisfied. Could it be that he wants to harm me again? It doesn¡¯t matter. Whatever you have in mind, do it to your heart¡¯s content. I¡¯m already like this. How much worse can it be?¡±


    Mi Jin¡¯s reaction was within Yin Xun¡¯s expectations. After all, he had been harmed too badly by Si Fan, so it was normal for him to be so radical. In addition, when he had fallen out with Si Fan, Si Fan had not been with Yin Mo. Now that he knew about Yin Mo, although he did not travel out, he had been paying attention to Si Fan¡¯s movements.


    This kind of person was actually the most terrifying because he was hiding in the dark and waiting for the right time. Once the time was right, he would use everything he had to take revenge.


    Yin Xun believed that she would be Mi Jin¡¯s long-awaited opportunity.


    ¡°Mr. Mi, please don¡¯t misunderstand my relationship with Si Fan. It¡¯s true that he¡¯s my sister¡¯s boyfriend, but at the same time, we¡¯re also rivals because I¡¯ve just opened an online company. Once I start, I¡¯ll be competing against Blue Fox. Although I¡¯m working on phones, I heard that he¡¯s also interested in developing on the phone side.¡±


    ¡°I know about the feud between the two of you. There¡¯s also a personal feud between Si Fan and me. It¡¯s perfect for the two of us to join forces to deal with Si Fan. If you¡¯re worried, you can choose not to show your face and only do the research behind the scenes. Leave the rest to me. I believe that with a genius like you joining us, it won¡¯t be a problem to get rid of the Blue Fox Corporation.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun took out the contract from her pocket and handed it to Mi Jin. ¡°Take a look at this contract first. There are terms of cooperation on it. Everything will be based on the contract. This way, you don¡¯t have to worry that I¡¯m lying to you.¡±


    Mi Jin took the contract but did not open it. Instead, he sneered and said, ¡°If this contract could help me, I wouldn¡¯t have fallen to this state today.¡±


    Mi Jin was too defensive. Seeing his reaction, Yin Xun¡¯s eyes flickered. ¡°Mr. Mi, I know you¡¯ve been framed by Si Fan many times, so after knowing that I have some form of relationship with him, you¡¯re even more guarded. But think about it. You have nothing now, anyway. But you still have a chance to take revenge on Si Fan. Are you sure you don¡¯t want it? Also, there¡¯s something I think I should tell you honestly.¡±

 Chapter 119 - 119 A Good Friend Was Kidnapped

    119 A Good Friend Was Kidnapped


    ¡°There are two reasons why Si Fan got close to my sister. He doesn¡¯t really like her. Firstly, he wants to use my sister to save his sister, Si Xia¡¯s, life. Secondly, he believes that his parents¡¯ death was related to our Yin family and wants to find an opportunity to destroy our Yin family in revenge. Si Fan is our common enemy. As long as you defeat him, you can wash away your previous humiliation and clear your name. Similarly, I can also protect our Yin family¡¯s assets.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words made sense. Mi Jin was tempted. Indeed, he had nothing now. He was not afraid to try again. Even if he failed, could it be worse than now?


    Yin Xun had been staring at Mi Jin. Seeing that he was gradually tempted, Yin Xun struck while the iron was hot. ¡°As long as you cooperate with me, you won¡¯t be fighting alone in the future. Although my company is new, I¡¯m still a member of the Yin family. It¡¯s very easy for us to protect someone. As long as I¡¯m here, I guarantee that Si Fan won¡¯t be able to touch you.¡±


    ¡°Oh right, there¡¯s one more thing.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s face darkened. ¡°I¡¯ve investigated before I came. Do you know why Chen Meng suddenly disappeared?¡±


    !!


    ¡°Chen Meng?¡± Mi Jin¡¯s expression changed drastically. He asked anxiously, ¡°What happened to him?¡±


    ¡°You should know Si Fan¡¯s character better than me. When you were in prison, he was the one who stopped your friend from helping you. After Chen Meng refused to listen to him and helped you out, Si Fan attacked Chen Meng. He imprisoned Chen Meng to lure you into making a mistake,¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    ¡°Just because Chen Meng helped me, he actually did such a thing!¡± Mi Jin closed his eyes in pain. He tried hard to convince himself that Yin Xun was lying to him, but in fact, he knew that Si Fan was indeed such a person. He liked to torture others and watch them struggle helplessly.


    ¡°I¡¯ll call the police!¡± Mi Jin suddenly opened his eyes and took out an old phone to call the police.


    ¡°Wait!¡± Yin Xun stopped him. ¡°Chen Meng was kidnapped by Si Fan¡¯s subordinates. Even if we call the police, we won¡¯t be able to pin it on Si Fan in the end. Instead, you¡¯ll suffer because of this.¡±


    ¡°Then what? If I go with you, will you help me save him? I know it¡¯s hard, but¡ª¡±


    ¡°Mr. Mi, don¡¯t worry. Even if you don¡¯t come with me, I will save him.¡± Yin Xun said in a deep voice, ¡°I can save him this time, but I can¡¯t save him next time.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go with you.¡± Mi Jin knew Si Fan very well. He knew that he would do anything to deal with the enemy. If he wanted to ensure Chen Meng¡¯s safety, he only needed to leave Chen Meng.


    ¡°Alright, feel free to state any conditions you have. This is also my sincerity.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    ¡°But let me make it clear first. I¡¯ll go with you to see if you¡¯re reliable before deciding if I want to join your company.¡± Mi Jin heaved a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Sure, you can investigate to your heart¡¯s content. I¡¯m here to invite you with complete sincerity. Do you have any other questions, such as what to bring? We¡¯ll help you pack up,¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°I don¡¯t have anything. This furniture belongs to Aunt Yu. Before I leave, I do need your help with something. Help me pay the rent I owe. If we work together in the future, you can deduct it from my salary.¡± Mi Jin steeled his heart and decided to give it a try. Anyway, his reputation was gone now, and he owed a huge debt. As the saying went, the more debts you have, the less burden you have. He was not afraid of anything now.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. I¡¯ve already asked my employees to give her the money. Not only the rent, but we¡¯ll also compensate her for the losses she suffered because of you just now.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun in surprise. He was a little taken aback. He did not expect Yin Xun to be so meticulous.


    It seemed that he had made the right choice.


    Since Mi Jin had already agreed to leave with her, Yin Xun wanted to take him away now to prevent Mi Jin from going back on his word. Anyway, no matter what the outcome was, she would take him away first. It would be troublesome if he suddenly went back on his word.


    The two came out of the room and saw Yu Lin standing at the door.


    ¡°Aunt Yu, thank you for taking care of me during this period of time. I have to pull myself together and go out to work now.¡± Mi Jin bowed solemnly to Yu Lin to express his gratitude.


    ¡°When was I ever taking care of you, kid? Hurry up and leave.¡± Yu Lin said impatiently, but her eyes were already red.


    Mi Jin knew that Yu Lin had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. If she really did not want him to stay here, there were plenty of ways to force him to leave. Every time Yu Lin came to call Mi Jin, she would just ask him to quickly find a job. In fact, Yu Lin felt that a young man like him should not be left to rot, which was why she tried to forcefully motivate him.

 Chapter 120 - 120 Wouldn’t It Be Better To Change Your Style?

    120 Wouldn¡¯t It Be Better To Change Your Style?


    ¡°Aunt Yu, if Chen Meng comes back in the future, tell him that I haven¡¯t changed my phone number. Don¡¯t worry about me. I¡¯ll repay you when I earn money,¡± Mi Jin said again, not minding Yu Lin¡¯s impatience at all.


    Yu Lin sighed and looked at Yin Xun. ¡°Young lady, I think you¡¯re a very reliable person. I¡¯ll say something nasty first. I hope you¡¯re sincerely inviting Mi Jin to work and not trying to frame him again. If you try anything overboard, you¡¯ll suffer retribution in the future.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Aunt Yu. I¡¯m sincerely inviting Mi Jin to work at my place,¡± Yin Xun promised.


    Yu Lin was obviously worried. The two of them comforted Yu Lin for a while before leaving.


    !!


    It took Yin Xun half a day¡¯s journey to get here. It was almost dark now, so Yin Xun brought Mi Jin to a hotel near the airport to stay for the night. While the two of them were eating, Yin Xun looked at Mi Jin and felt that something was wrong.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Mi Jin asked with a frown. Yin Xun¡¯s probing gaze made him uncomfortable.


    Yin Xun rested her chin on her hand and said, ¡°I keep feeling that you¡¯re different from the programmer I imagined. You¡¯re a little lacking.¡±


    Yin Xun continued to stare at Mi Jin and think. After a moment, she slapped her thigh and knew what Mi Jin was missing.


    ¡°Come, let¡¯s go buy something.¡± Yin Xun pulled Mi Jin to a nearby clothing store and chose a checkered shirt for him. After letting him change into it, he went to a nearby bespectacled shop to buy a pair of black-rimmed glasses. Seeing that they were still not tasteful enough, she brought him to a hairdresser to get a buzz cut.


    Mi Jin was already confused by Yin Xun¡¯s actions. He did not know what to say and just let Yin Xun lead him to do these things. When everything was done, Yin Xun looked at Mi Jin, who had been transformed by her, and smiled in satisfaction.


    ¡°Why did you buy these things for me?¡± Mi Jin was puzzled. His casual clothes were already very comfortable. He liked them very much. Why did Yin Xun insist on making him change?


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s the style. That¡¯s the style of a programmer. With a buzz cut, black-rimmed glasses, and a plaid shirt, you look like an elite in the industry.¡±


    Mi Jin, ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡°By the way, since you brought me there, let¡¯s make it clear that I don¡¯t have money. My food, accommodation, and transportation¡­¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun. He did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was obvious.


    Yin Xun comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I already settled this matter before I came. I bought you a house near the company. It has two bedrooms and a living room. You can stay in one and use the other to work. In addition, there¡¯s food in the company canteen. You can eat for free, so you can have meals at the company all day.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin suddenly had a bad feeling. Was she asking him to work all day?


    They stayed in the hotel for the night. The next morning, Yin Xun brought Mi Jin back. After all, this was the first time the two of them had met, and Mi Jin had yet to agree to work with her. They could not be too anxious. They had to make Mi Jin feel comfortable.


    On the plane, looking at the gentle clouds outside, Mi Jin was not in the mood to admire them. Instead, he was worried about Chen Meng.


    He confirmed with Yin Xun again. ¡°Are you sure you¡¯ll save Chen Meng? If you can¡¯t, just tell me. I can choose to call the police.¡±


    ¡°Do you think it¡¯s useful to call the police? Firstly, Chen Meng is in Si Fan¡¯s hands, but the person who arrested him isn¡¯t Si Fan, it¡¯s Si Fan¡¯s subordinate. Secondly, Si Fan didn¡¯t tell you when Chen Meng was arrested. This means that Chen Meng isn¡¯t actually used to threaten you now, but to prevent you from making a comeback in the future. He¡¯ll use Chen Meng to tie your hands. Since he was brave enough to throw you in jail, he definitely has made sufficient preparations and won¡¯t be discovered by the police.¡±


    Yin Xun analyzed the pros and cons with Mi Jin. Seeing that Yin Xun had a point, Mi Jin decided to listen to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun brought Mi Jin back. Meanwhile, Si Fan was successfully released from prison early with the help of his friends.


    Just as Yin Xun had said, before Si Fan was released from prison, Yin Mo had been taking care of Si Xia. Although Si Xia had beaten and scolded her, Yin Mo still had a good temper and did not resist at all. She did her best to take care of Si Xia.


    ¡°How many times have I told you that I don¡¯t want to drink bitter medicine? Do you want me to die from the bitterness so that you can have a good time with Brother Si Fan?¡± Si Xia cursed as she knocked over the medicine that Yin Mo passed to her.


    ¡°I, I didn¡¯t¡­¡± Yin Mo squatted down to pick up the cup and placed it on the table. She wanted to help Si Xia tuck in her blanket again.


    Si Xia slapped Yin Mo¡¯s hand away and glared at her fiercely. ¡°Yin Mo, are you here to please me now because you know that my brother is about to be released from prison?¡±

 Chapter 121 - 121 I Only Like You

    121 I Only Like You


    ¡°Ah, is Fan going to be released from prison? When is he coming back?¡± Yin Mo did not take Si Xia¡¯s threat to heart at all and only paid attention to the fact that Si Fan was going to be released from prison.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Si Xia wanted to say something, but her expression suddenly changed. She looked at Yin Mo with a gentle smile and said, ¡°Sister Yin Mo, do you really want to see my brother?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Yin Mo blushed and nodded shyly.


    ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll tell you what. My brother wants to see you, too. He said the first thing he¡¯d do when he got out of prison would be to meet you at your house. So if you want to see him, go home and wait there.¡±


    ¡°For real?!¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°But I still have to take care of you¡­¡±


    ¡°Oh, I have a doctor to take care of me in the hospital. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll be fine. You should go home quickly.¡± Si Xia¡¯s face was kind as she kept persuading Yin Mo to go home.


    When Yin Mo heard Si Xia¡¯s words, she gave Si Xia a few more instructions before heading home. When Yin Mo walked out of the ward, Si Xia¡¯s face instantly darkened.


    She took out her phone and called Si Fan.


    Just as Si Xia had said, Si Fan was successfully released from prison with the help of his friends.


    After a few days in prison, a lot of work had piled up for him. The most important thing was the cash flow problem. If this matter was not resolved soon, the company would face bankruptcy.


    He had just returned from prison and went to the company. On the way to gather the company¡¯s shareholders for a meeting, he received the call from Si Xia. His expression changed slightly and he walked out of the meeting room before answering the call.


    ¡°Brother, I feel terrible. Come and see if I¡¯m okay¡­¡± Si Xia¡¯s aggrieved voice came from the other end of the phone.


    Si Fan frowned slightly and comforted her. ¡°Xiaxia, I¡¯m busy with the company. If you feel uncomfortable, call the doctor. I¡¯ll go over to see you immediately after I¡¯m done¡­¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re lying!¡± Si Xia shouted. She burst into tears and said, ¡°No, no, I want you to come and see me now! Are you lying to me? You¡¯re actually going to look for Yin Mo! You¡¯re giving up on me to accompany her, right? In your heart, Yin Mo is more important than me, right? If you don¡¯t care about me, then I¡¯ll just die and never disturb you again!¡±


    Si Xia seemed to really intend to do that. After saying that, she hung up.


    Si Fan listened to the beeping sound on the other end of the phone and immediately felt a headache.


    After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, Si Fan returned to the meeting room and gave instructions to the shareholders. He handed the work to his subordinates and left.


    After Si Fan returned to the hospital, he had just walked into Si Xia¡¯s ward when Si Xia rushed over.


    ¡°Brother! Boohoo, I thought you didn¡¯t want me anymore. I was so scared, all by myself¡­¡± Si Xia hugged Si Fan and cried.


    Si Fan carried Si Xia and gently placed her on the bed. He comforted her, ¡°How could that be? You¡¯re the only person I would never give up on.¡±


    He looked around the ward and his gaze finally landed on the pool of medicinal liquid on the floor.


    ¡°What happened here? Didn¡¯t Yin Mo come to take care of you?¡± Si Fan frowned.


    Si Xia¡¯s eyes reddened when she heard Si Fan¡¯s question. She explained aggrievedly, ¡°Yin Mo? Yeah, she was here. In order to leave a good impression on you, she pretended to come and take care of me, but in reality, she didn¡¯t have that intention at all. Not only did she hit me, she even spilled the medicine I wanted to drink. She said that I was an obstacle between the two of you. As long as I die, you can focus on being with her!¡±


    As Si Xia spoke, she stretched out her arm, revealing a bruise.


    ¡°Xiaxia, you¡¯ve already lied once last time. Are you going to lie again now? Yin Mo might be stupid, but she¡¯s not evil. How could she have hit you?¡± Si Fan frowned.


    Si Xia did not expect Si Fan to speak up for Yin Mo. With tears in her eyes, she said aggrievedly, ¡°Brother, why are you speaking up for Yin Mo? Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re in love with her and that¡¯s why you¡¯re so protective of her?! Have you forgotten what my parents told you before they left? Have you forgotten all the promises you made back then¡­¡±


    In the end, Si Xia clutched her heart and started to pant heavily, looking like she was in extreme pain.


    ¡°Xiaxia, hurry up and take the medicine. Be good, I¡¯ve never really liked Yin Mo. I¡¯m with her only because of you.¡± Si Fan quickly took the medicine and handed it to Si Xia for her to take.


    ¡°You¡¯re lying! I¡¯m not taking it. I¡¯ll only take it when you break up with her.¡± Si Xia knocked the medicine away.


    Si Fan frowned. Although he was beginning to feel impatient, he did not show it.

 Chapter 122 - 122 I’m A Law-Abiding Citizen

    122 I¡¯m A Law-Abiding Citizen


    He reached out and grabbed Si Xia¡¯s shoulder. Suppressing his temper, he assured her, ¡°Xiaxia, don¡¯t worry. You¡¯re the first priority in my heart. Yin Mo is just a tool I use to climb up the ranks. Besides, I¡±m keeping her by my side so that one day, I can completely cure you¡­¡±


    Si Xia immediately understood what Si Fan meant. She looked at Si Fan emotionally. ¡°Brother, I knew you loved me the most¡­¡±


    Meanwhile, Yin Xun and Mi Jin got off the plane. Just as they got into the car and were about to go back, she received a call from Yin Mo. She had no intention of hiding things from Mi Jin and picked up the call directly.


    Yin Mo¡¯s anxious voice could be heard. ¡°Sister, I heard that Fan has been released from prison. Hurry up and apologize to him. He will definitely forgive you!¡±


    !!


    The voice on the phone was not soft. Mi Jin, who was at the side, heard it too. He raised her eyebrows and looked at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun sighed in her heart. Yin Mo was indeed a useless teammate. She chose to pick a fight when Mi Jin was around.


    She said coldly, ¡°Why? Do you want me to apologize now, and then send him to prison again later?¡±


    ¡°Sis, are you still dissatisfied with him? You¡¯ve already sent him to prison. No matter how much conflict there is, it should be appeased by now. And he¡¯s already unhappy because of his financial difficulties. Why don¡¯t you apologize to him and make him happier?¡± Yin Mo persuaded.


    ¡°I¡¯m not doing it. If you can¡¯t stand it, call the police and arrest me.¡± Yin Xun hung up after saying that.


    Mi Jin kept staring at Yin Xun as if he had something to say, but he did not say anything.


    Yin Xun glanced at him and said calmly, ¡°Mr. Mi, just say what you want to say.¡±


    Only then did Mi Jin speak. ¡°That person just now is the legendary Si Fan¡¯s girlfriend, right? Your sister?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    ¡°She¡¯s really¡­ deeply in love with Si Fan. Does she know why Si Fan approached her?¡± Mi Jin deliberated over his words before speaking.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless. Even if we tell her the truth, she¡¯ll only think that it¡¯s a misunderstanding. She¡¯ll just be worried that Si Fan will get angry,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly.


    Although Yin Xun did not say it explicitly, Mi Jin immediately understood what she meant and stopped asking.


    Mi Jin turned around and looked at the rapidly retreating scenery outside the car window. He could not help but sigh with emotion. It had been so long since he had been in the capital. It seemed that the place had changed a lot.


    He did not know if his decision was right or wrong. He was too confused about the future.


    Just as Mi Jin was feeling emotional, a loud ringtone sounded. He was shocked and took out the old phone from his pocket in a panic. He pressed the answer button.


    Yin Xun saw Mi Jin¡¯s phone from the corner of her eye and thought that she would buy him another smartphone when they reached their residence. However, she did not say it out loud.


    ¡°Mi Jin, you ingrate. Did you hire someone to attack me?!¡± Mi Gang¡¯s dissatisfied voice came from the phone. ¡°It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t give me money, but to think that you actually hired someone to hit me. I¡¯m your brother, how can you treat me like this?!¡±


    The volume of the old phone was too loud. Although Yin Xun did not want to listen to the contents of Mi Jin¡¯s call, she could still hear it clearly. She had forgotten to ask the bodyguards whether they had made a move. It seemed that the bodyguard was still very powerful.


    When Mi Jin heard that Mi Gang was beaten up, he immediately laughed out loud. He said mockingly, ¡°You were actually beaten up? Who was the kind soul who upheld justice on behalf of the heavens? It¡¯s a pity that you can still call me to question me. It seems that the beating was still too light. You shouldn¡¯t be able to open your mouth.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t care about that. You must have hired someone to hit me. Either give me the money now or I¡¯ll call the police. You know what it¡¯s like to be in jail. If you don¡¯t give me the money, I¡¯ll let everyone know what kind of person you are. You even attacked your own brother!¡±


    Mi Jin said nonchalantly, ¡°Then call the police, you fool.¡±


    With that, he hung up without waiting for Mi Gang¡¯s reaction.


    After hanging up, he looked at Yin Xun in surprise. ¡°Mi Gang was beaten up. Did you ask the bodyguards to¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m a law-abiding citizen. Why would I do such a thing? Who knows which big shot he provoked and taught a lesson?¡± Yin Xun interrupted Mi Gang and quickly explained.


    Mi Jin saw that Yin Xun refused to admit it, but he could guess that Yin Xun was the one who did this. She must have helped him vent his anger.


    ¡°Thank you,¡± Mi Jin said sincerely.


    Yin Xun only smiled and did not say anything.


    ¡°Are we going to the office or to the place we¡¯re staying at?¡± Mijin asked, looking out the window.


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Neither. I¡¯m going to meet someone. I know you don¡¯t trust me, but when I bring you to meet this person, you¡¯ll definitely believe me.¡±

 Chapter 123 - 123 I Made It Just For You

    123 I Made It Just For You


    ¡°Who is it?¡± Mijin asked, immediately wary.


    ¡°You¡¯ll know when we get there. But don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s definitely not Si Fan. Si Fan can¡¯t even compare to him.¡± Yin Xun saw Mi Jin¡¯s vigilant expression and knew that he was being paranoid. It was because of Si Fan, so she was not offended.


    Hearing that it had nothing to do with Si Fan, Mi Jin finally heaved a sigh of relief.


    The car stopped in front of Fang Yao¡¯s villa. Yin Xun led Mi Jin and two female bodyguards out of the car. The other male bodyguards were dismissed by Yin Xun as soon as they got off the plane.


    At this moment, Fang Yao¡¯s door was open, but there was no one in the courtyard. Yin Xun could have gone in directly, but she still chose to ring the doorbell.


    The butler saw that it was Yin Xun, and he immediately ran out to invite Yin Xun in. ¡°Miss Yin, you¡¯re back. I was talking to Young Master this morning, and I didn¡¯t know if you would be back today. We just received a lot of ingredients this morning, and they¡¯re all your favorites. It just so happens that it is lunchtime now. I will immediately get them to prepare the meal.¡±


    ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler.¡± Yin Xun thanked him politely.


    After freeloading several times, Yin Xun felt more and more at ease. She planned to hire a chef in the future and invite Fang Yao over for a meal. This way, she would not be just freeloading but also returning the favor.


    ¡°Is Fang Yao home now?¡± Putting aside the meal, Yin Xun had more important things to do.


    The butler chuckled and said, ¡°Yes, let¡¯s go in.¡±


    The butler brought Yin Xun and Mi Jin to the living room. At this moment, Fang Yao was sitting on the sofa reading a book. When he saw Yin Xun coming over, Fang Yao put away the book and smiled, indicating for the two of them to sit down.


    Immediately after, the butler brought out a few snacks from the room next door and placed them in front of Yin Xun.


    ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master personally made these snacks for you. Quickly try them.¡± After he finished speaking, the butler handed the chopsticks over to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun immediately saw the lemon chicken feet. Although she had yet to eat them, she could already smell a strong fragrance. She picked one up and put it in her mouth. It was boneless.


    ¡°It¡¯s so fragrant and delicious!¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up as she gave Fang Yao a thumbs up.


    Fang Yao smiled and looked at Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin looked a little reserved. He sat upright and did not move. His eyes were fixed on his knees, as if he was afraid of being rude. He looked completely different from when he was with Yin Xun before he came.


    ¡°This must be Mr. Mi Jin.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and inquired.


    Yin Xun finished the boneless chicken foot, then put down her chopsticks and said, ¡°I was so focused on eating that I forgot to introduce you. This is Mi Jin, the programming god I was talking about.¡± After saying that, she introduced him to Mi Jin. ¡°This is the person I want to bring you to meet. He¡¯s the real boss of our company, a major shareholder, the young master of the Fang family, Fang Yao.¡±


    ¡°Hello.¡± Seeing that Mi Jin did not respond, Fang Yao took the initiative to greet him.


    Mi Jin was still in the same position and did not look up. Yin Xun was a little surprised to see him like this. Why was Mi Jin so nervous? Logically speaking, Mi Jin should not be so afraid of others.


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun looked at each other. Neither of them knew what was going through Mi Jin¡¯s mind.


    Mi Jin was silent for a moment. In the end, he seemed to have made up his mind. He suddenly stood up, walked to Fang Yao, and bowed to him. ¡°Master Fang, I¡¯m sorry. I apologize for what happened in the past!¡±


    Yin Xun was surprised. ¡°So you know each other?¡±


    Seeing Fang Yao shake his head, Yin Xun looked at Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin¡¯s expression was a little awkward. He explained, ¡°Well, you seem to be forgetful. It¡¯s normal that you wouldn¡¯t remember. Back then, the Fang family wanted to invest in Si Fan¡¯s online company, but Si Fan rejected the offer. That¡­ Actually, I¡¯m half responsible. Because Si Fan and I were still managing the company together back then, the Fang family was really too powerful. I was afraid that our hard work would be snatched away, so I suggested that Si Fan give up.¡±


    Although many years had passed and he had never met Fang Yao in person, he knew that Fang Yao was the young master of the Fang family, so he felt very awkward.


    Yin Xun did not expect this relationship to be related to Mi Jin. Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and then at Mi Jin. One of them was her sugar daddy and the other was a genius employee. They would not have any objections to each other, right?


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and saw her unnatural expression. He smiled calmly and said, ¡°This has nothing to do with me. My father invested in the project, so Mr. Mi, you don¡¯t have to feel sorry for me.¡±

 Chapter 124 - 124 The Big Boss Is Still Reliable

    124 The Big Boss Is Still Reliable


    When Mi Jin heard Fang Yao¡¯s casual words, he looked up at him in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.


    Fang Yao continued, ¡°Mr. Mi, now that you¡¯re Yin Xun¡¯s business partner, you¡¯re also my business partner. Our common opponent is Si Fan, so there¡¯s no need for internal strife. Moreover, business is about profit. Back then, you were only thinking about your company¡¯s interests. This can¡¯t be considered a grudge.¡±


    When Yin Xun heard Fang Yao¡¯s words she could not help but give him a thumbs up in his heart. Fang Yao was indeed someone who had been in the business world since he was young. His words were so pleasant. Not only did they show his magnanimity, but he could also rope in Mi Jin this way.


    ¡°Mr. Fang is indeed someone who does great things.¡± Mi Jin praised him sincerely. ¡°However, there¡¯s something I want to ask. Was this Xintao Company established by you specifically to deal with Si Fan?¡±


    !!


    ¡°No,¡± Fang Yao said calmly. ¡°I¡¯m only in charge of investing. As for the boss and decision-maker of the company, it¡¯s up to Yin Xun to decide. If she asks me, I¡¯ll give her suggestions. If she doesn¡¯t, I won¡¯t participate.¡±


    Mi Jin nodded. It seemed that Yin Xun did not lie to him.


    Yin Xun looked at Mi Jin and smiled slightly. ¡°Now you believe me, right? Si Fan and I are really opponents and not allies. As long as you join us, you won¡¯t be fighting him alone anymore. One more person means one more chance of winning. Moreover, we still have this big shot backing us.¡±


    ¡°Of course, you don¡¯t have to worry about me rushing you now. According to our agreement, I¡¯ll give you time to think. Let me know the outcome when you¡¯ve thought it through.¡±


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao looked at each other and smiled.


    Mi Jin took a deep breath before he said solemnly, ¡°Miss Yin, Mr. Fang, there is no need to wait. I have decided to work with you now.¡±


    If Yin Xun came to persuade him by herself, he might have to think about it for a long time. However, with Fang Yao as his guarantor, he had nothing to worry about.


    Seeing that Mi Jin had agreed, Yin Xun smiled and patted his shoulder. ¡°Alright, since you¡¯ve agreed, it means that you¡¯re also a member of the company. Sign the contract before you leave, and then you¡¯ll be on duty tomorrow.¡±


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun¡¯s hand that was patting Mi Jin¡¯s shoulder and frowned slightly. His gaze was unclear, but he did not say anything.


    When Mi Jin heard that Yin Xun asked him to sign the contract before leaving, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. She was afraid that he would regret it when he went out, so she asked him to sign the contract before leaving.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Mi Jin paused for a moment, and his expression was serious as he said, ¡°Miss Yin, Mr. Fang, once I come to your company, it means that both of you have officially become enemies with Si Fan. He has always been a person with no morals, and there¡¯s nothing he won¡¯t do. What if he makes a move against both of you?¡±


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao looked at each other. Fang Yao only smiled and did not say anything. Yin Xun said indifferently, ¡°Even without you, he would have come after me sooner or later, so you don¡¯t have to think it¡¯s all your fault. The outcome will be the same regardless of whether you¡¯re there or not. However, I have to remind you that the business world is like a battlefield. It¡¯s not a sure win or loss. I can¡¯t completely guarantee that I¡¯ll win against Si Fan in the end. I can only guarantee that I won¡¯t treat you badly, so there¡¯s still a chance for you to change your mind now.¡±


    Mi Jin did not expect Yin Xun to be so honest and say all this directly. He could tell that Yin Xun was trying her best. He thought that he had nothing to lose anyway. As the saying went, debts did not weigh on one¡¯s body. If he lost in the end, at most, he would just have more debts. What was there to be afraid of? He was a big boy. Was he going to be weaker than a girl?


    ¡°No, I won¡¯t regret it,¡± Mi Jin said grimly, taking a deep breath.


    Yin Xun smiled and snapped her fingers. ¡°Alright, it¡¯s decided then!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m here today to look for Fang Yao. There¡¯s one more thing I want to tell him. Since you¡¯re a member of the company now, let¡¯s discuss it together.¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and Mi Jin and smiled. ¡°There¡¯s a cocktail party at Suowei Hotel in three days. I plan to take this opportunity to talk to the mobile phone manufacturers about collaborating to put up the app on the market. Mr. Mi, what do you think of Xiaoguo and Zhenku?¡±


    ¡°Although these two domestic brands have a small audience in the country, they are still much inferior to foreign brands.¡± Mi Jin thought for a moment and gave his answer.


    Yin Xun nodded and said, ¡°Indeed, so far, the domestic mobile phone technology is not mature. Due to the hardware limitation, there is not a great audience. Then, do you think there¡¯s any difference between the performance of a domestic mobile phone and a foreign mobile phone without considering the audience?¡±

 Chapter 125 - 125 Discussing Cooperation

    125 Discussing Cooperation


    Yin Xun could do business, but she needed to consult professionals for this kind of professional knowledge.


    Mi Jin said, ¡°The biggest problem with domestic mobile phones at the moment is that the operating memory is too small and there is no automatic cleanup function, causing it to be very jammed after being used for a long time. Foreign brands have solved this problem very well. However, aren¡¯t we only making software? Why are we researching mobile phone hardware performance?¡±


    Yin Xun explained, ¡°Of course, I¡¯m only in charge of the software, but to make the software the best, it¡¯s also very important to understand the phone performance that we¡¯re going to collaborate with. Moreover, our company has just been established and we have to compete with several companies at the same time. Our biggest opponent is Si Fan¡¯s company.¡±


    ¡°Everyone likes to work with experts. Their primary goal is definitely Si Fan, but Si Fan might not choose them. I can use this opportunity to cooperate with them and directly come up with the best cooperation plan to let them see the profitable points. This way, I¡¯ll be more confident when talking about cooperation.¡±


    After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin¡¯s impression of her changed a little.


    He thought that since Yin Xun was the eldest daughter of the Yin family, Yin MO¡¯s sister would not be that smart since she was so stupid. Now, it seemed that Yin Xun was really different from Yin Mo.


    ¡°I know what you mean. Tell me the software requirements when you have time later. I¡¯ll quickly come up with the most suitable plan,¡± Mi Jin promised.


    ¡°I¡¯m ready. We can give it to you when we get back to the company.¡± Yin Xun was very satisfied with Mi Jin¡¯s reaction. It seemed that not only was Mi Jin very professional, but his EQ was also not low. He instantly understood what she meant.


    ¡°We¡¯ll talk about work later. Let¡¯s eat first.¡± Fang Yao saw that Yin Xun and Mi Jin were chatting excitedly, so he interrupted them calmly.


    The butler at the side looked at Fang Yao and laughed as he said, ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master has already asked me to prepare the food. If we leave it for too long, it will not taste good anymore. Let¡¯s eat first. After dinner, you can talk about work. How about that?¡±


    ¡°Sure,¡± Yin Xun agreed readily.


    This time, Fang Yao had indeed prepared Yin Xun¡¯s favorite dishes. Yin Xun praised him in his heart. Although Fang Yao was a big shot, he did not look as cold and arrogant as the CEO in the novels. Instead, he was approachable and friendly to his neighbors. It seemed like she had found a treasure.


    During the meal, the group did not talk about work anymore. On the other hand, Fang Yao saw that Yin Xun was wearing a simple casual outfit and asked, ¡°Since you¡¯re going to the cocktail party soon, have you prepared a gown?¡±


    The last time the two of them met at the banquet, Yin Xun was wearing an ordinary dress. It was not a proper gown at all. If he was not wrong, Yin Xun definitely did not prepare a gown.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°I have a lot of clothes. I¡¯ll just pick something suitable to wear.¡±


    ¡°When you say that, don¡¯t tell me that you¡¯re thinking of a dress like the one you wore at the birthday party last time?¡± Fang Yao looked at her and asked.


    Yin Xun thought about it and nodded. ¡°Yes, I think it¡¯s quite suitable. It¡¯s simple and low-key.¡±


    She had attended many banquets and always dressed like this. She felt that she was very suitable. Because no matter how low-key she dressed, she was still the most beautiful person in the venue. Besides, her dresses were all from big brands and were designed to be very similar to gowns. Anyway, if she were to look at them, she would not be able to see any difference from gowns. They were also not suitable for daily wear.


    When she saw Fang Yao¡¯s exasperated expression, Yin Xun immediately understood that she had misunderstood what he meant. She coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment and said, ¡°Um, I¡¯ll go buy a gown tomorrow.¡±


    Fang Yao felt a little helpless. He did not expect Yin Xun to be so casual. There was a lot to pay attention to when attending cocktail parties, especially business cocktail parties. It was different from ordinary banquets.


    ¡°Since¡­¡± Fang Yao was about to speak, but before he could say anything, Yin Xun cut across him.


    ¡°Mr. Mi, do you want to attend that cocktail party? If you want to, we¡¯ll buy clothes together tomorrow.¡± Yin Xun turned to look at Mi Jin.


    Fang Yao wanted to say that he also wanted to prepare a set of clothes and could go with her, but Yin Xun went to ask Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin frowned and asked, ¡°Will Si Fan be at the event?¡±


    Yin Xun replied, ¡°Most likely.¡±


    Mi Jin shook his head. ¡°Then I won¡¯t go. I can¡¯t let him know that I¡¯m here and joining forces with you. I¡¯ll work in the background. I¡¯ll only show myself on the day I defeat him and trample him into the ground.¡±


    Mi Jin gritted his teeth as he spoke. It was obvious how much he hated Si Fan.

 Chapter 126 - 126 Immediately Start

    126 Immediately Start


    ¡°Alright, I think so too. However, I wanted to respect your intentions, so I asked you. In that case, I¡¯ll bring you back to the company after dinner. We¡¯ll immediately start working and strive to defeat Si Fan as soon as possible!¡± Yin Xun said passionately.


    After Mi Jin agreed, he felt that something was wrong. For some reason, Yin Xun looked very reliable, but why did he feel like he had been tricked?


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and smiled. Yin Xun was indeed very suitable to be a leader. She could make people work for him willingly.


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, Fang Yao slowly said, ¡°Coincidentally, I haven¡¯t prepared any clothes. Why don¡¯t we go to the shop tomorrow to see if there are any suitable ones?¡±


    ¡°Sure!¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes instantly widened, and she quickly agreed. However, the next moment, she suddenly thought of a question. ¡°Didn¡¯t you have something to do and couldn¡¯t make it to the party?¡±


    Fang Yao said calmly, ¡°Now that everything is settled, we can go to the cocktail party to take a look.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s great.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    How could she not know what Fang Yao meant? He often attended such events, so how could he not have any suitable clothes? Fang Yao actually wanted to help her choose her clothes, but he was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he made that excuse.


    In fact, Fang Yao was thinking too much about this. Even if he said it directly, she would not reject him out of embarrassment because she had no experience in choosing gowns, to begin with! If she chose the wrong style and it was not suitable for that occasion, would that not be even worse? Fang Yao had a lot of experience in this area. He knew what kind of gown was the most appropriate, so with him around, she did not have to worry.


    So far, the few things that Yin Xun cared about the most had been decided. Now, as long as she tried her best to cooperate with the two cell phone manufacturers, the preparation work would be completed.


    After they finished eating, Yin Xun bid farewell to Fang Yao and left with Mi Jin.


    Yin Xun first brought him to the place where he would live. She had bought a two-bedroom house for Mi Jin. It was big and bright.


    Mi Jin looked at the house and was a little embarrassed as she said to Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, thank you, but I do not need to live in such a big house. A single room is enough.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. Two rooms are actually just right. One room is for you to stay in, and the other room can be transformed into a study. In the future, you can bring home any work that you can¡¯t finish in the company, or you can just do it at home to save yourself the trouble of running back and forth.¡± Yin Xun comforted him.


    Mi Jin, ¡°¡­¡± Why did those words sound so strange?


    After looking at the house, Yin Xun brought him to the company. The first thing she did when they arrived at the company was to get Mary to settle the employment procedures for him. After all, she brought Mi Jin over to work, so she had to make full use of her time.


    While Mary was logging the data in, Yin Xun led Mi Jin around the new company. After they were done, Yin Xun brought Mi Jin to the office prepared for him.


    ¡°From now on, this is your exclusive office.¡± Yin Xun walked to the sofa and sat down. She said indifferently, ¡°Because the company has just finished renovating, there are still many things that haven¡¯t been prepared, so this place looks a little simple. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll prepare everything as soon as possible.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin finally understood why he had always felt strange. She spoke like the leader of an MLM organization. The only difference was that the MLM organization was probably lying, and she could actually keep her promise.


    ¡°I¡¯m not interested in anything else. I just want to destroy Si Fan now,¡± Mi Jin said in a low voice. ¡°Of course, as long as my salary can be paid normally.¡±


    ¡°Alright, since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s start work now.¡± Yin Xun took out the app plan that she had prepared beforehand from her bag and handed it to Mi Jin. ¡°The requirements for the new app are all here. Take a look. If you don¡¯t understand anything, just ask me. I¡¯ll stay here today. After you know what to do, I¡¯ll go do other things.¡±


    Mi Jin, ¡°¡­¡±


    This was too fast. They had just started working. Had she always been like this? She did not even give him a chance to adapt, but she wanted to start work directly.


    However, although Mi Jin was a little stunned, he did not have the intention to refute. This was because he knew that Si Fan¡¯s company had long matured and was a dominant company. If Yin Xun wanted to surpass him, the process would be very difficult. In order to surpass Si Fan a day earlier, they had to hurry up and develop the relevant program.

 Chapter 127 - 127 Lingering Ghost

    127 Lingering Ghost


    ¡°Alright, let me take a look,¡± Mi Jin said and sat on the office chair to read.


    While Mi Jin was reading the proposal, Yin Xun did not stand idly either. She remembered seeing the bosses of Xiaoguo and the Zhenku at the birthday banquet. She recalled what they had eaten at the banquet and who they had chatted with. After all, knowing their preferences would make it easier to rope them in.


    Mi Jin read the app plan carefully from beginning to end. In the end, his brows were deeply furrowed.


    ¡°The app can¡¯t be too big, nor can it take up too much of the operating memory. It also has to have the functions of buying things, chatting, posting on Moments, and saving money. After meeting these conditions, it also has to be simple and easy to get used to¡­¡± Mi Jin read Yin Xun¡¯s ideas one by one. The more he read, the more depressed he became.


    !!


    He finally knew why Yin Xun insisted on looking for him even though there were so many programmers. It was because the requirements were only two or three at most in other companies. He did not expect Yin Xun to raise so many requests. Fortunately, he was experienced and had mature technology. Otherwise, he would definitely be in a difficult position.


    He had to design this program alone.


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°How is it? Do you think it¡¯s simple? Actually, there aren¡¯t many requirements. It¡¯s just enough to make people of different ages like it and play it well.¡±


    This was simple?!


    Mi Jin took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. Although Yin Xun had a lot of requests, they were very clear and every one of them was on point. It was obvious that she was not deliberately making things difficult for him. This was what the design software was like. It left the simplest parts to the users and the most difficult and complicated to the programmers.


    ¡°I¡¯ll try.¡± Mi Jin nodded.


    ¡°When it comes to developing apps, although I can do most of the work, I suggest you hire a few more employees. Because other than designing the program, you have to test it out. There are many things to do,¡± Mi Jin said in a low voice.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Of course. Don¡¯t worry about that. Take a look first. I¡¯ll establish another technical department and you¡¯ll be in charge.¡±


    Yin Xun and Mi Jin discussed with each other for a long time what to do with the app. By the time they were completely sure, it was time to get off work.


    After saying goodbye to Mi Jin, Yin Xun returned to her villa in the suburbs.


    The next day, Yin Xun was called over for breakfast by the butler early in the morning. After breakfast, she went out with Fang Yao.


    Seeing that the two of them were out shopping together, the butler could not stop smiling. Before they left, he kept reminding Fang Yao to come back as late as he wished and to take good care of Yin Xun.


    However, the two of them did not do as the butler wished. Yin Xun had other things to do and did not have time to shop for long, so the two of them went straight to a gown shop. Fang Yao asked the shop assistant to take out the gowns and let Yin Xun choose.


    ¡°I think these are all pretty good. Just take any one of them.¡± Yin Xun was dazzled. She did not know which one to choose and planned to take any of them.


    ¡°This one¡¯s too flashy.¡± Fang Yao stopped her. ¡°A business party is different from ordinary banquets. The people who attend are all elites from all walks of life. Everyone is very serious. If you wear something too over the top¡­¡± Fang Yao looked at the sexy gown in front of him and did not finish his sentence.


    ¡°Too indecent?¡± Yin Xun did not mind at all and said it for Fang Yao with a smile.


    Fang Yao nodded.


    ¡°Sigh, I really don¡¯t know what kind of clothes to wear on such an occasion, so I¡¯ll leave it to you to help me choose. I¡¯ll try it on after you¡¯ve chosen,¡± Yin Xun said and sat on the chair beside her, as if she was just accompanying Fang Yao to buy clothes.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    Why did his relationship with Yin Xun seem to have changed? Should girls not be the ones choosing clothes while boys sat at the side and waited?


    Although Fang Yao felt a little helpless, he still called the shop assistant over and told her all the requirements. Then, he asked her to bring out suitable gowns.


    The shop assistant quickly took out a gown that met Fang Yao¡¯s requirements. Fang Yao chose another gown that looked generous, appropriate, and not revealing. He walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and showed it to her. ¡°What do you think of this?¡±


    Yin Xun took a look and raised his eyebrows slightly. She had to admit that Fang Yao had good taste. This gown looked very dignified and steady.


    ¡°Not bad, not bad. Your taste is good,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Being praised by Yin Xun made Fang Yao actually feel a little happy.


    ¡°Sister, why are you here?¡± Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the door. Yin Xun turned around and saw Yin Mo holding Si Fan¡¯s arm.

 Chapter 128 - 128 How Unlucky

    128 How Unlucky


    The moment she saw Yin Mo, Yin Xun¡¯s good mood immediately dissipated. How unlucky. How could she meet these two here?


    ¡°Why? Can¡¯t I come here if you can?¡± Yin Xun did not give Yin Mo any respect and said coldly, ¡°Your boyfriend just got out of prison. Can he accompany you for shopping?¡±


    Yin Mo and Si Fan froze at the same time.


    Yin Mo did not expect Yin Xun to be so impatient with her when they had just met. She looked a little aggrieved, but she still maintained a smile and said, ¡°We¡¯re indeed biological sisters. What a coincidence. We even met when shopping for clothes. Sigh, Big Sister, are you buying a gown for the cocktail party the day after tomorrow?¡±


    !!


    ¡°No, we¡¯re going to eat.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Mo did not understand, but she did not intend to dwell on this issue.


    She saw Fang Yao standing in front of Yin Xun with a gown and asked curiously, ¡°Sister, who is this? Is he your friend? Is it because Xing Cheng can¡¯t accompany you shopping now that you found someone else to accompany you?¡±


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes. She knew what Yin Mo meant. Yin Mo was really persistent in tying her and Xing Cheng together. Fortunately, Fang Yao rarely appeared and his identity was mysterious, so many people did not know his appearance.


    ¡°He¡¯s my boyfriend.¡± Yin Xun took Fang Yao¡¯s arm and introduced him to Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun in shock and asked her in disbelief, ¡°Sister, isn¡¯t your boyfriend Xing Cheng? You haven¡¯t even broken up yet. Why did you find another one? This isn¡¯t good for anyone. Sister, I know you¡¯re still angry at Xing Cheng. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll help you talk to him and get him to apologize to you!¡±


    ¡°Fan, you should persuade Sister too. She¡¯s two-timing now. This isn¡¯t good.¡± Yin Mo shook Si Fan¡¯s arm, indicating that he should quickly persuade Yin Xun too.


    However, Si Fan only stared at Fang Yao quietly and did not speak.


    If Yin Mo¡¯s words were in the past, Yin Xun¡¯s blood pressure would have risen. However, she no longer cared because she knew that Yin Mo was doing this on purpose. In order to matchmake her with Xing Cheng, she did not even care about her reputation. However, if this happened to Yin Mo instead, she would be anxious to blame her for treating her like this.


    It seemed that Yin Mo was not just kind-hearted.


    When Yin Mo said these words, her eyes were on Fang Yao. She had always remembered Si Fan¡¯s instructions. No matter what happened, she had to match Yin Xun and Xing Cheng together. Only then would her relationship with Si Fan be stable.


    She was waiting to see Fang Yao leave in a huff. She did not expect Fang Yao to not be angry at all. Instead, he held Yin Xun¡¯s hand and looked at her affectionately. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I don¡¯t care what Xun was like in the past. As long as she likes me, it¡¯s enough.¡±


    The way Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun was too sincere. For a moment, Yin Xun even thought that Fang Yao meant what he said. While she was in a daze, Fang Yao gently pinched her hand, and Yin Xun came back to his senses.


    She did not expect Fang Yao to be so good at acting that he almost fooled her.


    Yin Xun took the gown from Fang Yao. When she turned to look at Yin Mo, her gaze instantly turned cold. She said in a low voice, ¡°I have nothing to do with Xing Cheng. If you want to use me to cover up the scandal between the two of you again, I¡¯ll tell Si Fan everything you did to him.¡±


    ¡°Sister, what are you talking about? I have nothing to do with Xing Cheng. Don¡¯t talk nonsense!¡± Yin Mo hurriedly explained when she saw Yin Xun putting her and Xing Cheng together again. She was afraid that Si Fan would misunderstand.


    Yin Xun only gave Yin Mo a meaningful smile. Then, she gestured for the shop assistant to pack up the gown. After paying, she left with the bag in one hand and Fang Yao¡¯s hand in the other.


    Sometimes, the effect was stronger when you left your words unfinished.


    ¡°Fan, don¡¯t misunderstand. There¡¯s nothing between Xing Cheng and me. Nothing happened between us.¡± Seeing that Yin Xun had already left, Yin Mo quickly explained to Si Fan.


    Si Fan did not take this matter to heart. He lowered his head and frowned. ¡°How strange, why do I feel that this man looks familiar?¡±


    Yin Xun led Fang Yao out of the shop and immediately let go of his hand. She said apologetically, ¡°Sorry about earlier.¡±


    Fang Yao looked down at Yin Xun¡¯s hand and smiled. ¡°I¡¯m happy to help. Besides, you¡¯ve helped me before.¡±


    ¡°How nice.¡± Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°Unfortunately, you haven¡¯t bought yours yet. Why don¡¯t we go to another shop?¡±


    As soon as Yin Xun finished speaking, her phone suddenly rang. She gestured for Fang Yao to wait a moment, and as soon as the call connected, Yin Cheng¡¯s excited voice came from the phone.

 Chapter 129 - 129 What Did You Do?

    129 What Did You Do?


    ¡°Xun, what did you do to the Xing family? Just now, the old man from the Xing family personally called and said that you don¡¯t have to help with Xing Cheng anymore. They won¡¯t use this matter to make things difficult for us in the future!¡±


    She could tell that Yin Cheng was not only excited, but also very pleased. After all, no matter how powerful Yin Xun was, the other party was still a high-ranking official. With Yin Xun¡¯s strength, it was impossible for her to touch the Xing family.


    ¡°Me?¡± Yin Xun was also very surprised when she heard Yin Cheng¡¯s words. She had yet to make a move.


    Could it be that Wang Ran acted on her own without telling her? That was impossible. Wang Ran would never do such a thing without a lawyer. What was going on?


    ¡°I haven¡¯t. What happened?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    ¡°Xing Guang, that shameless old thing. It was his grandson who made a mistake, but in the end, he blamed it on another young lady. The most outrageous thing was that before the agreed time was up, he actually came to make things difficult for our company. He said that the construction site was too dirty, said that the materials were not reported, and so on. It forced me to stop work and rectify it, and I was fined. That Xing Guang even called to mock me. I was being righteous, but in the end, their Xing family was also harmed. Haha¡­¡±


    Toward the end, Yin Cheng could not help but laugh. This was retribution.


    However, Yin Xun¡¯s focus was not on the Xing family¡¯s matter. She frowned and said, ¡°He caused trouble for our company? Dad, why didn¡¯t you tell me?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid that you¡¯ll be worried, but it¡¯s fine now. The Xing family can¡¯t even take care of themselves now. They¡¯re not in the mood to deal with our family.¡± Yin Cheng could not hide the joy in his words.


    ¡°Then how much money did our family lose because of the Xing family?¡± Yin Xun did not care about anything else. She only wanted to know how much her family had lost because of this.


    However, Yin Cheng did not intend to tell her. He knew Yin Xun¡¯s temper and only comforted her. ¡°Xun, it¡¯s not much. It¡¯s just a little delay. It¡¯s fine. Don¡¯t worry. Oh right, what are you doing now?¡±


    Seeing that Yin Cheng had changed the topic, Yin Xun knew that she would not be able to get anything out of him. She decided to wait until she returned to the company before asking Yin Cheng in person.


    ¡°I¡¯m buying a gown for the cocktail party,¡± Yin Xun replied.


    ¡°Alright, alright, alright. You¡¯ve been working so hard. Treat it as a holiday today. You don¡¯t have to come to the company. Go shopping properly. Xun, Daddy has to say something to you. Although your sister usually doesn¡¯t care about anything other than dating, she¡¯s living happily enough. Of course, Daddy doesn¡¯t want you to become like her. Daddy hopes that you can relax from time to time and not be tense. Daddy is in the company. You don¡¯t have to worry so much¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng nagged at Yin Xun for a long time before hanging up. Before hanging up, he did not forget to remind Yin Xun, ¡°You¡¯re not allowed to drink iced milk tea. It¡¯s not good for the girl¡¯s health to drink cold milk tea all the time.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at the iced milk tea she had just bought and did not know whether to laugh or cry.


    She did not take a sip as she spoke to him. She did not expect Yin Cheng to know that she was drinking iced milk tea even through the phone. Were all parents like this?


    ¡°Okay, I got it, Dad.¡± After being nagged by Yin Cheng for a while, Yin Xun could finally hang up.


    She did not avoid Fang Yao when she picked up the phone, so Fang Yao heard the contents of the call from beginning to end. He looked at Yin Xun and smiled. When Yin Xun hung up the phone, the smile immediately disappeared.


    ¡°How strange. The Xing Family has ties with both business and government. Why did something happen all of a sudden? Could it really be karma for doing too many bad things?¡± Yin Xun muttered.


    When Fang Yao heard this, he said casually, ¡°Maybe someone else did it.¡±


    Yin Xun took a deep breath and said with a smile, ¡°That must a kind person. I wonder who did it. If I find out, I¡¯ll definitely give him a big thumbs up.¡±


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. ¡°Is that all?¡±


    Yin Xun thought for a moment. ¡°As long as I don¡¯t have to pay substantially, I can praise you however I want.¡±


    Fang Yao smiled helplessly and said, ¡°¡­You¡¯re really generous.¡±


    ¡°Of course. Thank you for the compliment,¡± Yin Xun replied with a smile.


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao chatted as they walked toward a branded store across the street. This time, they were choosing clothes for Fang Yao. As expected, Fang Yao chose clothes quickly and directly chose one that was the same color as Yin Xun¡¯s gown.


    ¡°You seem to like this color very much, don¡¯t you?¡± Yin Xun could not help but ask.


    Fang Yao said lightly, ¡°This color looks more low-key.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s indeed low-key. The color is so dark. I don¡¯t have to be afraid of encountering criminals when I go out at night. If I wear a black hood and blend perfectly into the darkness, no one will be able to see me.¡±

 Chapter 130 - 130 Preparing to Attack

    130 Preparing to Attack


    When Yin Xun said that, the shop assistant was waiting at the side. When she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, she could not help but laugh. Although she did not say anything, she knew it was disrespectful to the guests. She quickly said, ¡°Sir, your girlfriend is very beautiful and interesting. The two of you are really compatible.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°We¡­¡±


    ¡°This is it. Pack it up.¡± Just as Yin Xun was about to explain, Fang Yao interrupted her and asked the shop assistant to pack it up.


    When Yin Xun saw this, she shut up and did not try to explain further. Anyway, they did not know this shop assistant, so it did not matter if there was a misunderstanding.


    After buying their things, Fang Yao drove Yin Xun to the Yin family¡¯s company and left directly. He would bring the gown back and take it out again when Yin Xun went to his place for dinner that night.


    The first thing Yin Xun did when she returned to the company was to look for Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Dad, which projects in our family was affected? How much money did we lose?¡± When Yin Xun saw Yin Cheng, the first thing she asked was about the losses.


    Yin Cheng was sitting at his desk reading documents. When he saw Yin Xun coming over, he took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°It¡¯s all here. At that time, I was worried about what to do about this. I didn¡¯t expect something significant to happen to the Xing family in two days.¡±


    Yin Xun took the document and roughly looked at it. There were a total of two projects that had stopped. Looking at the time, Xing Guang must have made a move after threatening her. In total, they had lost more than three million yuan.


    ¡°Fortunately, we didn¡¯t lose much money. It¡¯s only slightly over three million yuan. This is because the Xing family didn¡¯t make a serious move. If the Xing family really wants to take us out, it won¡¯t be something that a few million yuan can stop. I can tell that Xing Guang just wants to give us a warning so that you can release Xing Cheng as soon as possible¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng saw that Yin Xun¡¯s expression was getting worse and worse and thought that she was blaming herself. He quickly stopped talking about this and comforted her, ¡°But Xun, this matter has nothing to do with you. It¡¯s the Xing family who is shameless. You did the right thing! Now that something has happened to the Xing family, Xing Guang personally called and said that you don¡¯t have to care about Xing Cheng anymore.¡±


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I will make up for the losses caused by the stoppage. Three million yuan is not a small sum. No matter how much it is, it¡¯s still money. I¡¯m sorry, Dad. I miscalculated this time.¡± Yin Xun apologized to Yin Cheng. She did not expect Xing Guang to directly attack them. In that case, she would not be polite this time.


    ¡°Why are you apologizing to me? We¡¯re family. This company is mine now, but it will be yours in the future. Still, what do you want to do?¡± Yin Cheng still did not understand his eldest daughter. She had too many ideas. She was the complete opposite of Yin Mo.


    ¡°You¡¯ll find out soon enough. I¡¯ll get them to return it with interest.¡± Yin Xun did not answer. Instead, she looked at Yin Cheng and said, ¡°Do you know what happened to the Xing family?¡±


    Yin Cheng picked up the newspaper at the side and handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°The higher-ups suddenly checked the situation of bribery. The Xing family is on the list. Because the amount associated to them is huge, they are currently under investigation.¡±


    So that was the reason. This was a good opportunity. Yin Xun had never believed in repaying evil with kindness. She only believed in eradicating the evil roots.


    Since the Xing family could not even take care of themselves now, she should add more firewood and remove this threat for good. Only then would she be really safe in the future.


    While the two of them were talking, Yin Xun¡¯s phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was Wang Ran. After saying goodbye to Yin Cheng, she returned to her office to answer the call.


    ¡°Miss Yin, I have done everything according to your request. What do you think we should do now?¡± Wang Ran asked carefully.


    ¡°Is the video and witness ready?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Wang Ran said, ¡°It¡¯s all prepared. Not only that, because they have offended too many people, and are now under fire, many people have betrayed them. There are also a few who want to take the initiative to cooperate with us. However, they all have a common request¡­¡±


    ¡°We can¡¯t expose their identities,¡± Yin Xun finished her sentence.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, Miss Yin, you are smart. It¡¯s just that their worries are unnecessary because I don¡¯t even know who sent this to me. If even I don¡¯t know who they are, they don¡¯t have to worry about being exposed.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°They¡¯re telling us not to investigate.¡±


    ¡°I see. Then what should I do next, Miss Yin?¡± Wang Ran asked.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, ¡°Hand everything to the lawyer. You don¡¯t have to care about anything after that.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Wang Ran agreed and hung up.


    Yin Xun walked to her desk and sat down. She began to work on the documents Mary had given her. All she needed to do now was wait quietly for the results.

 Chapter 131 - 131 Threatening Each Other

    131 Threatening Each Other


    Sure enough, at around four in the afternoon, Yin Xun received a reply.


    Yin Cheng came to Yin Xun¡¯s office with a puzzled expression.


    ¡°Xun, Xing Guang called again just now. He said that he no longer pursues the matter of Xing Cheng. Why are you still unwilling to let the Xing family off? What¡¯s going on? What did you do to make the old man so angry?¡±


    Yin Cheng had just entered and was talking when his phone rang again. He saw that it was Xing Guang and handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°He wants to talk to you.¡±


    !!


    Yin Xun took it and pressed the answer button.


    ¡°Yin Cheng, I don¡¯t want to talk to you. I want to look for that little girl, Yin Xun. Give her the phone!¡± Just as Yin Xun picked up the call, Xing Guang¡¯s strong voice came from the other end of the phone. His aura did not seem like an old man¡¯s at all.


    ¡°I am Yin Xun,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Yin Xun? Alright, since you answered the call, let me ask you, what did you do behind my back? How can a little girl like you not study hard to support her husband and children? Why are you always thinking about framing others? A person like you will not be able to get married in the future. Who would dare to marry you?!¡±


    Xing Guang opened his mouth and said that Yin Xun could not get married. Yin Cheng was unhappy when he heard that. His daughter was so outstanding. As long as she opened her mouth, many men would line up. How could she not get married?


    He wanted to say something, but Yin Xun stopped him with a look.


    Yin Xun was not angry at all. She smiled gently and said calmly, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. At least I¡¯ve never been to jail. I don¡¯t have a criminal record. My background is still clean.¡±


    She knew that Xing Guang cared about Xing Cheng the most, so she just had to bring the topic to Xing Cheng.


    As expected, after hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Xing Guang stopped mentioning this matter.


    ¡°Forget it, I won¡¯t lower myself to the level of a little girl like you. Hurry up and withdraw the lawsuit. I¡¯ll pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, our grudge will stay here. It won¡¯t be good for anyone in the future,¡± Xing Guang threatened.


    Facing Xing Guang¡¯s threat, Yin Xun was not afraid. She smiled and said, ¡°Elder Xing, because you are an elder, I call you Elder Xing respectfully, but you¡¯d better not take advantage of your seniority in front of me. Everyone has a backer. If you still don¡¯t understand it, then you¡¯ve lived your life in vain.¡±


    Yin Xun deliberately did not make things clear, just like how she had spoken to Xing Cheng that day.


    As expected, Xing Cheng and Xing Guang were indeed grandfather and grandson. Xing Guang¡¯s first reaction was the same as Xing Cheng¡¯s. He said in surprise, ¡°Could it be that you¡¯re involved in our investigation this time?¡±


    Yin Xun did not answer Xing Guang¡¯s question. Instead, she said indifferently, ¡°Elder Xing, I know that your Xing family is very strong, but you have to know that there is always someone better than you. If I can¡¯t deal with you, there will naturally be someone who can. Of course, if you want to deal with me with all your strength, I¡¯ll accompany you. However, I can¡¯t guarantee what I¡¯ll do next.¡±


    ¡°Xing Cheng isn¡¯t the only piece of evidence I have. I just didn¡¯t want to make things too ugly, so I didn¡¯t do anything more. Of course, don¡¯t bother trying to kill me to keep it a secret. I¡¯m not stupid enough to place all the evidence in one place. Whether it¡¯s me or my family, as long as it¡¯s related to your Xing family, I guarantee that your family¡¯s secret will be exposed that day.¡±


    Not only was Yin Xun not frightened by Xing Guang, but she also threatened Xing Guang.


    ¡°You¡¯re old and don¡¯t care about these things, but your son and grandson should be able to live for a long time more. If something happens to them, I wonder if your heart will ache?¡± Yin Xun threatened faintly.


    Yin Xun did not have so many secrets in her hands. She was just gambling. She knew that there were many dirty things behind the Xing family, but she did not have any evidence. Now, it depended on whether Xing Guang would believe her. As long as he believed her, she would win the bet.


    ¡°You¡­ cough cough¡­¡± Xing Guang was furious with Yin Xun. He coughed for a long time before recovering.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be so meticulous at such a young age. I¡¯ve underestimated you. Let¡¯s do this. I won¡¯t make things difficult for you or the Yin family. Just pretend that nothing happened. Our Xing family will stay far away from your Yin family in the future!¡±


    Although Xing Guang was angry, he had also seen Yin Xun¡¯s methods. He finally knew why Xing Cheng lost to Yin Xun.


    However, Yin Xun did not intend to let Xing Guang off. She knew that at this time, the more aggressive she appeared, the more the other party would believe that she had evidence.


    Of course, the prerequisite for doing this was to have a certain degree of control. She could not force the other party into a corner. She had to mention something that the other party was completely capable of doing.

 Chapter 132 - 132 Missed Out On A Good Girl

    132 Missed Out On A Good Girl


    ¡°This won¡¯t end just because you say so. How are we going to calculate the losses that our Yin family has suffered these few days? Your Xing family is also in the business industry. You should know the consequences of suspending a company,¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    Xing Guang suppressed his anger and said, ¡°We¡¯ll compensate, okay? Is there anything else?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s all, Elder Xing. It seems that your health hasn¡¯t been good recently. You should rest well at home.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun had agreed, Xing Guang hung up the phone with a bang.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s settled.¡± Yin Xun returned the phone to Yin Cheng.


    ¡°As expected of Yin Cheng¡¯s daughter. She¡¯s swift and decisive. She¡¯s too cool,¡± Yin Cheng praised.


    Suddenly, the office phone on the table rang. Yin Xun walked over to answer it. It was the receptionist.


    ¡°President Yin, Xing Cheng¡¯s father brought his son over together. He says that he wants to see you. Do you want to see them?¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned. Xing Cheng and his father? Xing Cheng actually came out so quickly. The Xing family¡¯s connections were indeed powerful. He was fine now even with such a serious crime.


    ¡°Let them come up,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    The Xing family was really funny. This time, because of Xing Cheng¡¯s problem, all three generations of the family had come. However, Yin Xun did not know why Xing Cheng¡¯s father was here too. Could it be that he wanted to seek justice for his father and his son?


    ¡°Who¡¯s there?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    Yin Xun answered, ¡°Xing Cheng¡¯s father.¡±


    Upon hearing this, Yin Cheng¡¯s expression darkened. ¡°Xing Li, what is he doing here? He has been calling me for the past few days, but I never picked up. He must be up to no good. It must be because of the Xing family again. Forget it, don¡¯t entertain him anymore. Just get the security to chase him away.¡±


    As Yin Cheng spoke, he walked to the table and picked up the phone to call the security guard. However, before he could dial the number, a voice came from the door.


    ¡°Brother Yin, I haven¡¯t seen you for so long, but your temper is still the same.¡±


    Yin Xun and Yin Cheng turned around and saw Xing Li and Xing Cheng standing at the door. Although the two of them were father and son, their auras were worlds apart.


    Personality had a huge impact on people. The father and son looked similar, but Xing Li looked much more stable than Xing Cheng. On the other hand, Xing Cheng¡¯s temperament was exactly the same as Xing Guang¡¯s.


    Yin Cheng said impatiently, ¡°Who are you calling Brother Yin? Don¡¯t call me that.¡±


    Xing Li knocked on the door and asked, ¡°Can I come in?¡±


    ¡°Uncle Xing, please come in.¡± Yin Xun smiled and invited him in.


    As expected, Xing Li was different from Xing Guang. Even the difference in treatment and his handling of people was so great. It seemed that Xing Cheng had learned all the bad things from his grandfather.


    Xing Cheng lowered his head and walked next to Xing Li the entire time. He did not say a word and looked quite despondent.


    After the two of them entered, Yin Xun poured them a cup of tea and invited them to sit down. Xing Li smiled and thanked them before sitting down. Xing Cheng followed his father¡¯s example the entire time. When he saw Xing Li sit down, he also sat down.


    While Yin Xun poured the tea, Xing Li looked at Yin Xun and praised her in his heart. Although Yin Xun was young, she had a good brain and was able to play the Xing family like fools. It was fine if she just had a good brain, but her appearance and temperament were also outstanding. She was a rare good girl.


    He glanced at Xing Cheng, who was sitting beside him, and sighed in his heart. This failure of a son of his was useless. He had missed out on such a good girl.


    ¡°What are you looking at? Even if your eyes fall out from staring, my daughter will never like your son. Give up!¡± Yin Cheng said angrily. ¡°What are you doing here? Are you here to denounce me?¡±


    Xing Li did not mind Yin Cheng¡¯s rudeness at all. He smiled faintly and said, ¡°Brother Yin, don¡¯t misunderstand. I know that my son is not worthy of your daughter. I just feel that it¡¯s a pity. I came here today to apologize to your daughter. A few days ago, my father came to your door and must have caused you a lot of trouble, right?¡±


    Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at him and said impatiently, ¡°So you know. I thought the Xing family relied on the old man alone to control things.¡±


    Yin Xun could tell that Xing Li had no ill intentions this time. Seeing that Yin Cheng¡¯s words were sarcastic, she was afraid that the two of them would fight, so she quickly interrupted, ¡°Uncle Xing, what do you mean?¡±


    ¡°Sigh¡­¡± Xing Li sighed. ¡°I have neglected to discipline Xing Cheng. His mother passed away very early, and I was busy with work. I could not accompany him all the time, so I left him by the old man¡¯s side to grow up. I did not expect that he would get spoiled by his grandfather to this extent. He became a lawless man and even did such a thing to Miss Yin. I brought him over to apologize to you.¡±

 Chapter 133 - 133 Don’t Make Things Difficult For Money

    133 Don¡¯t Make Things Difficult For Money


    After saying that, and seeing that Xing Cheng did not react, Xing Li raised his hand and smacked the back of his head. He snarled, ¡°Rascal, apologize!¡±


    Xing Cheng stood up and bowed deeply to Yin Xun. ¡°I am sorry, Miss Yin Xun. I was insensible and rude in the past. I have done many wrongs. I will not do it again. Please forgive me.¡±


    It was obvious that he had already thought of an apology before coming, so he said it so smoothly.


    ¡°Of course, Miss Yin, we are not really asking you to forgive us. Whether you forgive us or not is your own matter, and we simply must apologize. In addition, this is the compensation that our Xing family will give you. Although it is not much, it is a token of our sincerity. I hope that you will not despise it.¡±


    !!


    After Xing Cheng apologized, Xing Li took out a box the size of half a palm from his pocket and handed it to Yin Xun.


    ¡°What is this?¡± Yin Xun took it.


    ¡°This is just a small token of my appreciation. Miss Yin, don¡¯t worry. In the future, I will definitely keep a close eye on Xing Cheng, and I will not let him do such a thing again. I have decided to bring him overseas to live for a while, and I will also teach him a good lesson at the same time,¡± Xing Li said with a sigh.


    Yin Xun opened the box and saw a crystal clear jade lying inside. There was no impurity at all. Its value was priceless. This was not something that could be bought with even three million yuan.


    Yin Cheng also saw it. He snatched it and returned it to Xing Li. He said angrily, ¡°Who are you looking down on? Does our Yin family lack jewelry? You should know what your son did. His actions do not deserve forgiveness.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at the jade that was suddenly snatched away and felt disappointed.


    Although she looked calm on the surface, she complained in her heart, ¡®Dad, don¡¯t make things difficult for money. He already said that it was compensation and didn¡¯t ask me to forgive him. I didn¡¯t say that I forgave him. Why did you reject it?¡¯


    Unfortunately, Xing Li was beside her at the moment, so she could not say such things. She could only pretend that nothing had happened.


    ¡°This is compensation for Miss Yin, and I am not asking for her forgiveness.¡± After Xing Li took it back, he did not pass it to Yin Xun this time. Instead, he placed the box on the table. ¡°It is not just Xing Cheng. I also want to apologize on behalf of my father. He has always placed Xing Cheng first. He is always spoiling him, and that is why he did all these things.¡±


    ¡°I could not show up earlier because I was overseas on a business trip. During this period, I tried to call Brother Yin, but I couldn¡¯t get through. Later on, I really had no choice. I could only take an overnight flight, but even then, I still didn¡¯t have time. I was surprised that my father already came here. Although I kept persuading him, he didn¡¯t listen, so he ended up making a mistake.¡±


    Xing Li spoke very sincerely. Even Yin Cheng did not continue to rebuke him.


    ¡°Uncle Xing, did you just say that you wanted to bring Xing Cheng overseas?¡± Yin Xun suddenly thought of something that happened in the original novel.


    Xing Li nodded. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Is there a problem, Miss Yin?¡±


    ¡°What are your thoughts on Si Fan?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s name, Xing Cheng, who had been silent, finally reacted. He suddenly raised his head and stared at Yin Xun. ¡°What do you mean?¡±


    ¡°Shut up!¡± Xing Li glared at Xing Cheng, who immediately lowered his head again.


    Xing Li glanced at Yin Xun and Yin Cheng. He knew that Si Fan was Yin Mo¡¯s boyfriend, so he had to be careful when he spoke.


    He pondered for a moment before slowly saying, ¡°To summarize it in an idiom, he has both wisdom and courage. However, perhaps because of the environment he grew up in, he doesn¡¯t like to be restrained in terms of relationships, so he might have unintentionally done something immoral. He¡¯s a good person overall, but I won¡¯t make friends with him.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    He was a good person, but he did not want to be friends with him. Was he implying that Si Fan was not good enough?


    Yin Xun knew that Xing Li only said this because Si Fan was related to the Yin family. It was not appropriate to tell the truth, but since he was dissatisfied with Si Fan, so could only say this.


    However, Xing Li was good at judging people. Si Fan was indeed immoral. In order to achieve his goals, he did not hesitate to pay any price.


    In the original novel, there was a plotline where Xing Cheng committed a crime and went to jail. After being rescued by Xing Li, he was going to take him overseas to live. Si Fan was upset that he was about to lose a friend who gave him money, so he beat Yin Mo up.


    Later on, Yin Mo found out the real reason why she was beaten up. After knowing that, not only did she not blame Si Fan, she actually felt sorry for him for losing his friend. She was worried that Si Fan would have a hard time alone in the future.


    However, this worry did not last long. Soon, Si Fan excitedly told her that Xing Cheng was not able to leave.

 Chapter 134 - 134 There Will Be Danger

    134 There Will Be Danger


    Yin Mo asked Si Fan about the reason, and Si Fan told her the truth. Si Fan said that Xing Cheng¡¯s father suddenly got into a car accident and died on the spot, so no one could take Xing Cheng away now.


    After speaking to Yin Mo, Si Fan imprisoned her in the basement and only released her a few months later.


    Not only was Si Fan not sad about the sudden death of his good friend¡¯s father, but he was also unusually excited. Yin Xun suddenly wondered if Si Fan was the one who caused it. Even if it was not him, he must have been involved.


    Yin Xun thought about the development. Xing Li was going to take Xing Cheng overseas now, but Yin Mo had not been subjected to domestic violence yet because she had just seen Yin Mo and Si Fan going to the clothing store together today. Perhaps her influence on the story had caused this matter to be brought forward.


    If the tragedy had happened to Xing Guang, she would have pretended not to know. However, she felt that Xing Li was a good person and did not want to see him encounter such a thing. It seemed that she had to help him.


    ¡°Uncle Xing, Si Fan is at his most difficult time recently. He and Xing Cheng are good friends. He won¡¯t want Xing Cheng to leave now. Combined with your opinion of him, you should know what it means, right?¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    If Xing Cheng was not here now, she could have reminded him more clearly. However, Xing Cheng was here, and with his intelligence, Yin Xun did not dare to gamble on whether he could understand other people¡¯s kindness. It would be bad if he was misunderstood and brought trouble to himself.


    Therefore, Yin Xun could only inform Xing Li indirectly.


    ¡°Thank you for your reminder, Miss Yin. I will be careful.¡± Xing Li understood what Yin Xun meant.


    ¡°For stubborn people, sometimes it¡¯s also very dangerous to not have the chance to attack,¡± Yin Xun reminded him again.


    To a person like Si Fan, opportunities were not important because he could create opportunities if there were none. The weaker Si Fan was, the less of a threat he was to Yin Xun. Therefore, Yin Xun hoped more than anyone else that no one would help Si Fan, so she reminded Xing Li now to help her indirectly.


    Xing Li¡¯s expression became a little more solemn. He turned to look at Xing Cheng and said, ¡°I thought his relationship with Si Fan was like those other drinking buddies. I didn¡¯t expect the two of them to be so close.¡±


    ¡°Dad, my relationship with him isn¡¯t that good anymore. I won¡¯t give him money casually anymore¡­¡± Xing Cheng wanted to explain himself.


    ¡°Shut up. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it at home. I brought you here to apologize, not to listen to your explanations.¡± Xing Li interrupted him.


    He knew that once his son started spouting nonsense, he might cause trouble again.


    After scolding Xing Cheng, Xing Li began to praise Yin Xun again. ¡°I really envy Brother Yin for having such a capable and sensible daughter like Yin Xun. Unfortunately, I only have a good-for-nothing son.¡±


    Hearing Xing Li praise Yin Xun, Yin Cheng was finally pleased. He snorted. ¡°Of course. Whose daughter is she?¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s reaction amused Yin Xun and Xing Li.


    After that, the two of them talked about the current problems of the Xing family and how to compensate the Yin family for the losses. It turned out that Xing Cheng had no idea that his family had encountered so many issues. He looked at Yin Xun with fear in his eyes. He had provoked Yin Xun, but he did not expect the entire Xing family to be implicated.


    He swore to stay as far away from Yin Xun as possible in the future.


    After both parties reached a consensus, Xing Li left with Xing Cheng. Yin Xun personally sent them out of the office and only entered after they disappeared.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun and said unhappily, ¡°Xun, why do I feel that you¡¯re becoming more and more like Yin Mo? You forgave that brat from the Xing family so easily and even allowed him to come out. You didn¡¯t even ask for much compensation.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Dad, I¡¯m just being considerate for once. You don¡¯t have to scold me like that¡­¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s true. That¡¯s a little too much.¡± Yin Cheng nodded. ¡°Now that Xing Cheng is free, it¡¯s just a question of whether Xing Li will take him overseas. What if he comes to pester you again in the future?¡±


    Yin Xun said calmly, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. Since I can send him to prison once, I can send him in a second time. He¡¯s not worth worrying about. I¡¯ll forgive him. It¡¯s not because of him and Uncle Xing, but because of the entire Xing family.


    ¡°Don¡¯t forget, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Although the Xing family can¡¯t even take care of themselves now, they¡¯re still much stronger than our Yin family. We can¡¯t anger them now. It will have the opposite effect. We have to do things step by step. Letting Xing Cheng go is giving the Xing family some dignity. It¡¯s not a loss to me. So, why not?¡±

 Chapter 135 - 135 I Like Little Puppies

    135 I Like Little Puppies


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Xing Cheng sighed and said, ¡°You really have a knack for the business. You¡¯re more thoughtful than me. Forget it. Since you have a plan, I won¡¯t bother you. Just do whatever you want.¡±


    ¡°Dad, you are as understanding as Yin Mo,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at her and frowned. ¡°If you want to insult me, just say it.¡±


    At night, Yin Xun went to Fang Yao¡¯s place to get a gown and a free meal.


    While she was eating, she received another call from Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Xun, I heard that you have a gigolo now. Do you want a boyfriend, but don¡¯t have the energy to commit? If you want one, I¡¯ll help you. There are so many rich young masters, and one of them is outstanding in all aspects¡­¡±


    ¡°Dad, who did you hear this from?¡± Yin Xun was afraid that Yin Cheng¡¯s words were getting more and more off-topic, so she quickly interrupted him.


    ¡°Your sister. She called me just now and said that you have a handsome boy with you. That boy is helping you choose clothes like a servant¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s voice was very loud, and Fang Yao, who was sitting beside him, heard it directly. He looked at Yin Xun and raised his eyebrows slightly. A gigolo? A servant?


    Yin Xun awkwardly made an apologetic gesture and explained, ¡°Dad, you¡¯ve misunderstood. The person you¡¯re talking about is my friend. We¡¯re just going to buy clothes together. There¡¯s no other relationship. You still believe Yin Mo¡¯s words. She only knows how to cause trouble and never speaks the truth.¡±


    ¡°Oh, I see.¡± Yin Cheng sounded regretful. ¡°I thought you were finally enlightened and wanted to find a boyfriend. It turns out that you¡¯re still in the dark when it comes to relationships. What a pity.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    So that was what Yin Cheng meant.


    After Yin Xun hung up, Fang Yao said casually, ¡°Judging from your father¡¯s reaction, is he very strict about you finding a boyfriend?¡±


    ¡°Strict? No, no, no. He can¡¯t wait for me to find a boyfriend. He feels that I¡¯m too lonely alone and has always had this thought,¡± Yin Xun quickly said.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. ¡°Oh? What kind of boy does your father want? Since he¡¯s talking about it, does that mean he has a goal in mind?¡±


    ¡°My father is very open-minded. He won¡¯t force me to be with anyone. It¡¯s mainly up to me. He didn¡¯t stop Yin Mo and Si Fan from being together. Is there a boy worse than Si Fan?


    ¡°No matter what I choose in the future, he won¡¯t say anything. Of course, I don¡¯t have plans for that now. It¡¯s best to pursue a career. As long as I have the ability, I can find a partner whenever I want. It won¡¯t be a problem even if I find a little puppy ten years younger than me,¡± Yin Xun said casually.


    ¡°A puppy ten years younger¡­¡± Fang Yao nodded slightly, and his gaze suddenly became a little deep.


    After dinner, Yin Xun thanked Fang Yao and took the gown home.


    On the day of the cocktail party, Yin Cheng was afraid that Yin Xun would be late, so he called her early to ask her to go home. Yin Xun did not even change her clothes and went back with the gown.


    When she arrived at the Yin residence, Yin Xun heard Yin Cheng¡¯s loud voice cursing before she even entered the house. She pushed the door open and went in. As expected, Yin Rui must have made some mistake again. Yin Cheng was so angry that his face and neck were red. He held a broom and chased after his son. To avoid getting beaten, Yin Rui was chased all over the house.


    ¡°Stop right there!¡± In the end, it was Yin Xun who could not stand it anymore and spoke out softly. Only then did Yin Rui stop. Yin Cheng finally caught up to him. With a bang, the broom finally landed on Yin Rui. Finally, Yin Cheng felt satisfied.


    ¡°Big Sister¡­¡± Yin Rui stopped running when he heard Yin Xun¡¯s words. As a result, he was beaten up. He immediately looked at Yin Xun pitifully.


    Seeing that Yin Cheng still had the intention to continue hitting him, he wanted to run, but after Yin Xun glared at him, he did not dare to run anymore.


    ¡°Xun, you¡¯re back. You can be the judge. This brat only knows how to play games all day long. He doesn¡¯t do his homework or study. When will he become sensible and successful in the future?¡± Yin Cheng pointed at Yin Rui with a broom and spoke to Yin Xun while panting.


    Yin Rui defended himself. ¡°It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know Big Sister¡¯s ability. She can take care of two people by herself. It¡¯s enough that we have her and you at home. Why do I have to be sensible at such a young age? It¡¯s good to live your childhood. It¡¯s good to be happy. There should be no worries. It¡¯s a blessing to be able to just eat and play. Besides, Second Sister is older than me, but she¡¯s not even as good as me. She only knows how to date. At least I can study. I¡¯m not the worst.¡±

 Chapter 136 - 136 Afraid Of Yin Xun

    136 Afraid Of Yin Xun


    ¡°You brat, how dare you say that?!¡± Seeing what a disappointment Yin Rui was, Yin Cheng was so angry that he wanted to hit him with a broom again, but Yin Xun stopped him.


    Yin Xun was afraid that Yin Cheng would be seriously angered by Yin Rui, so she said, ¡°Go back to your room and do your homework now. Wait for me to come back and check. Don¡¯t be lazy, or Dad and I will beat you up together. Oh right, and give me the game console so that you can¡¯t play it secretly.¡±


    ¡°Sister, you¡­¡± Yin Rui wanted to fight for his rights, but when he met Yin Xun¡¯s cold eyes, he did not dare to say anything. He quickly went back to his room obediently and even handed over the game console.


    Seeing that Yin Rui was like a mouse that had seen a cat in front of Yin Xun, Yin Cheng finally felt relieved.


    ¡°Yin Rui isn¡¯t afraid of anyone but you. You have your ways with him.¡± Yin Cheng sighed.


    ¡°Dad, he¡¯s still young. It¡¯s normal for him to like to play. When he¡¯s a little older, he¡¯ll know what he should do.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Actually, Yin Rui is a good child. It¡¯s just that it takes time for him to grow up. He¡¯ll slowly become more responsible. Anyway, I think very highly of him.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun praising Yin Rui, Yin Cheng¡¯s face darkened. ¡°Xun, I always thought that you were the most sensible child in the family. Why are you speaking up for your brother now? This is not like you.¡±


    Yin Xun did not say anything else. She thought of Yin Rui¡¯s fate in the original novel.


    In order to save Yin Mo, the love-struck fool, Yin Rui¡¯s legs were eventually destroyed by Si Fan. He was half-dead and became addicted to drugs. He suffered so much at such a young age. Just thinking about it made her heart ache.


    Back then, when she was reading the novel, her heart ached for this cheerful boy. She even thought that if she was his sister, she would definitely not let him suffer like this again. Now that her thoughts had come true and she really was his sister, Yin Xun only wanted Yin Rui to live a happy life.


    ¡°Xun, why are you spacing out?¡± Yin Cheng raised his hand and waved it in front of Yin Xun until Yin Xun finally came back to her senses.


    ¡°I¡¯m wondering if we should let Yin Rui attend this cocktail party. After all, he¡¯s not so young anymore. It¡¯s not a bad thing for him to come into contact with these things from now on.¡± Yin Xun casually found an excuse. Anyway, Yin Cheng would definitely not agree.


    Just as expected, Yin Cheng rejected her directly. ¡°Why would a high school student like him attend such a cocktail party? Studying hard is the most important thing for him. Xun, don¡¯t secretly bring him out to play just because you feel sorry for him. Don¡¯t be deceived by this brat.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled, indicating that she understood.


    Yin Xun went to the cocktail party with a purpose. Initially, Yin Cheng did not plan to go, but he was afraid that Yin Xun would have a hard time at the cocktail party alone, so he prepared to go with her.


    Before he went out, Yin Cheng had ordered someone to print out the information of the most powerful people who would be attending the cocktail party. He told Yin Xun not to offend these people, including the Fang family.


    Other than the normal things to take note of, there were also their preferences. Things such as who were the Yin family¡¯s good friends and who were their sworn enemies. Yin Cheng told Yin Xun about them one by one.


    Although Yin Xun had already learned everything from Fang Yao before this¡ªin greater detail, too¡ªshe knew that if she acted like she knew everything, Yin Cheng pester her to find out how she knew. It would not be good if Fang Yao was implicated. Therefore, Yin Xun pretended that she did not know and followed Yin Cheng¡¯s instructions to memorize everything again.


    At night, Yin Xun and Yin Cheng left for Suowei Hotel. When they arrived, there were already many people there.


    Everyone was in the same circles, so most of them knew each other. Yin Cheng brought Yin Xun to greet a few old acquaintances. He wanted to introduce his daughter to them, but he did not expect that these people all knew Yin Xun before he even said a word.


    The people present were all paying close attention to the news. If anything happened to other companies, they would immediately know. Therefore, although the matter between Si Fan and Xing Cheng was not very publicized, they all knew that Yin Xun had sent them to the police station.


    It would have been fine if it was only Xing Cheng. Most importantly, even Si Fan did not escape from her. He was Yin Xun¡¯s brother-in-law. They could be considered a family. Yin Xun did not show mercy to him. She was a ruthless person.


    However, there was one thing that everyone had miscalculated. They all thought that a woman who could do such an earth-shattering thing must be a shrew. They did not expect that Yin Xun¡¯s attitude would be gentle and polite when they met today. She was definitely a young lady from a wealthy family.

 Chapter 137 - 137 I’ll Give You Two Choices

    137 I¡¯ll Give You Two Choices


    Seeing Yin Xun like this, everyone¡¯s attitude toward her changed again. It seemed that Yin Xun was just the kind of person who would take revenge. Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s appropriate words and actions, everyone¡¯s impression of her immediately improved by several degrees.


    After exchanging pleasantries with these people, Yin Xun wanted to see if Fang Yao was there. If he was, she could recommend him to meet Yin Cheng. However, she looked for a long time and did not see Fang Yao at all, so she gave up. Perhaps Fang Yao had other things to do. She would think about it in the future.


    When she did not find Fang Yao, Yin Xun began to look around for the chairmen of Xiaoguo and Zhenku. However, before she could take a few steps, she heard a commotion at the door.


    She turned around and her lips twitched.


    !!


    Yin Mo was wearing a sexy gown and high heels. Her body swayed as she walked toward the middle of the hall. Along the way, she attracted a lot of attention. Of course, all of them were looking at her chest.


    Yin Xun remembered that Yin Mo had the figure of a little white flower. How did she become so sexy at this moment? She was so curvy. She was beautiful, but her appearance was not suitable for such an occasion.


    When Yin Xun frowned and looked at her, she heard the people around him talking about Yin Mo.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this a business cocktail party? I heard that the rules here are very strict. Who let such a girl in?¡±


    ¡°Damn, someone must have helped her. The people here at the business cocktail party are all top figures from various companies. With some luck, they¡¯ll be on the list of rich people, and won¡¯t have to worry about food and clothes in the future.¡±


    ¡°Tsk, tsk, tsk. Girls nowadays really don¡¯t bother learning. She¡¯s so young and so beautiful. She can do anything, but she insists on just hooking up with men. It¡¯s better to rely on your own hard work. Aren¡¯t you afraid of being laughed at?¡±


    When Yin Xun heard the words of the people around him, she instantly felt her face burn. Yin Mo had really embarrassed herself. Fortunately, these people did not know that she was the second young mistress of the Yin family, so she did not embarrass the Yin family.


    Before Yin Mo saw her, Yin Xun planned to sneak away. Otherwise, she and the Yin family would be embarrassed.


    However, things did not go as planned. Yin Xun had just taken two steps when she heard Yin Mo call out to her excitedly, ¡°Big Sister, I¡¯ve finally found you!¡±


    When Yin Xun heard Yin Mo call her, she was speechless. This Yin Mo really knew how to read other people¡¯s expressions.


    After shouting, Yin Mo jogged over to Yin Xun and hugged her arm happily. ¡°Sister, come on, why didn¡¯t you tell me you were coming to the cocktail party? When Si Fan told me that you would come, I didn¡¯t believe him. Now it seems that his guess was right.¡±


    The few people who had just spoken to Yin Xun saw that Yin Mo called Yin Xun ¡®Big Sister¡¯. Only then did they remember that the Yin family had two daughters. Looking at their appearances carefully, although their makeup was very different, they could tell that the two of them looked somewhat similar.


    ¡°So this little beauty is your sister. As expected of the two sisters. They look so alike.¡± The person beside them complimented Yin Xun.


    ¡°I have something to tell my sister, so I can¡¯t accompany you.¡± Yin Xun said goodbye to people elegantly and pulled Yin Mo toward the lounge.


    Yin Mo saw that they were going in the wrong direction and started to struggle. ¡°Sister, where are you taking me? I¡¯m not going there. I¡¯m here to help Fan discuss business!¡±


    ¡°Business?¡± Yin Xun was very surprised by this answer. Yin Mo had never worked seriously in the Yin family¡¯s company, let alone talk about business. She did not expect her to start doing serious business with Si Fan.


    However, when she saw Yin Mo¡¯s attire, Yin Xun immediately understood why Si Fan had asked her to come. He wanted to use her beauty to make business dealings.


    She did not care how Si Fan went about his business, but Yin Mo was a member of the Yin family. If she were to seduce people here, it would be a slap to the Yin family¡¯s face.


    ¡°Follow me to the lounge. I have something to tell you.¡± Yin Xun insisted on bringing Yin Mo to the lounge, but Yin Mo refused.


    Seeing that she was so resistant, Yin Xun let go of her. She crossed his arms and said coldly, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll give you two choices. One is to go to the lounge with me, and the other is to take me to see Dad and see what he will say about you.¡±


    Yin Xun could not be bothered with Yin Mo, but the two of them were family in name. As the saying goes, they shared both honor and disgrace. Although she really wanted to draw a line with Yin Mo, in the eyes of outsiders, they would always be family.


    Yin Xun had just seen the two CEOs she was looking for. She could not let them see Yin Mo like this. Otherwise, her image would be significantly affected. For the sake of her future business, she could not let Yin Mo do whatever she wanted.

 Chapter 138 - 138 The Woman Behind Him

    138 The Woman Behind Him


    Yin Xun¡¯s words were effective. Yin Mo knew that she could not meet Yin Cheng, or she would definitely be scolded, so she chose to follow Yin Xun obediently.


    The two of them arrived at the lounge. Fortunately, there was no one inside.


    Yin Xun asked Yin Mo in a low voice, ¡°Where¡¯s Si Fan?¡±


    Yin Mo immediately looked vigilant and asked Yin Xun, ¡°Sister, why are you looking for Si Fan? Don¡¯t you have a boyfriend? Oh, I know. Are you still angry with Xing Cheng? Really, it¡¯s normal for couples to fall out. Besides, you¡¯ve already punished him, so why don¡¯t you forgive him¡­¡±


    !!


    Under Yin Xun¡¯s cold gaze, Yin Mo¡¯s voice became softer and softer. In the end, she shut up.


    ¡°Yin Mo, don¡¯t pretend to be ignorant. I have nothing to do with Xing Cheng, and I still won¡¯t in the future. I¡¯m asking where Si Fan is so I can find out what he wants you to do. You don¡¯t have to worry that I¡¯ll snatch Si Fan from you. I¡¯m not a rubbish recycling station that accepts all kinds of trash,¡± Yin Xun said coldly.


    Yin Mo¡¯s face immediately turned pale. She did not expect Yin Xun to speak so harshly and belittle her boyfriend!


    ¡°Sister, that¡¯s not what I meant. I really think that you and Xing¡­¡±


    ¡°Yin Mo, today¡¯s location is special. Don¡¯t force me to hit you,¡± Yin Xun interrupted Yin Mo and said in a deep voice.


    Yin Mo knew that Yin Xun would do as she said. She immediately shut her mouth and did not dare to say anything else. She started to answer obediently, ¡°Si Fan is not here yet. He wants to discuss business with the biggest phone CEO, so he said that he has to be prepared before coming over.¡±


    Yin Xun continued to ask, ¡°Then why did you say that he asked you to help him negotiate business?¡±


    ¡°That CEO likes beautiful women. Someone suggested to Si Fan that if he brought a beautiful woman along, the chances of success would be much higher.¡± At this point, Yin Mo even felt very proud.


    ¡°So you are willing to be used by him as a bargaining chip to discuss business?¡± Yin Xun suppressed her anger. This was a slap to the Yin Family¡¯s face.


    Yin Mo raised her hands to cover her face and pretended to be shy. ¡°Sister, you¡¯re wrong. This isn¡¯t a bargaining chip. It¡¯s because they appreciate my power. It¡¯s said that a successful man will always have a powerful woman behind him, and I want to be the woman behind Fan.¡±


    ¡®She¡¯s hopeless!¡¯ Yin Xun took a deep breath. It seemed that saying Yin Mo¡¯s brain was addled by love was a compliment. Her brain was not fully developed at all.


    ¡°Do you shave any extra clothes?¡± Yin Xun did not plan to continue struggling with this problem. It was better to leave this matter to the head of the family, Yin Cheng.


    ¡°We¡¯re here to attend a business banquet. We can just wear a gown. Why do we have to bring another one? There¡¯s no need to change and dance halfway through a business banquet. Everyone is here to discuss business. Sister, look, you don¡¯t attend often. You don¡¯t even know these events.¡± Yin Mo actually took the opportunity to criticize Yin Xun.


    ¡°If you know that this is a business party, why did you come here dressed like this?¡± Yin Xun smacked her own face. She realized that it was too difficult to communicate with someone like Yin Mo. Yin Mo was naive and stupid.


    ¡°Doesn¡¯t this dress look good? Si Fan got someone to custom-make it for me. It perfectly outlines my figure so that I won¡¯t embarrass him.¡± Yin Mo walked to the full-length mirror at the side and took a look at herself. She was very satisfied with her clothes.


    Yin Xun realized that she could not get through to Yin Mo. She knew that there was no way for her to change her clothes, so she would only embarrass himself by staying with Yin Mo.


    Since she could not get through to her, Yin Xun did not plan to continue. She turned around and walked toward the door. Just as she was about to open the door, Yin Xun warned Yin Mo coldly, ¡°When you go out later, you are not allowed to say that you are a member of the Yin family, nor are you allowed to say that you are my younger sister. Otherwise, I won¡¯t mind chasing you out of the Yin family in public. You don¡¯t have to think that Dad will care about you either, because you have already embarrassed him completely.¡±


    ¡°Big Sis¡­¡± Yin Mo panicked when she heard Yin Xun¡¯s harsh words. She quickly stopped her. ¡°Actually, I brought extra clothes, but they¡¯re in the room upstairs. My feet hurt from wearing high heels. Big Sis, can you help me over?¡±


    ¡°You even booked a room here?¡± Yin Xun asked with a frown.


    Yin Mo nodded. ¡°Because I¡¯m going to do my makeup here. Actually, it¡¯s not just me. Many people will book a room in advance just to prevent anything unexpected from happening.¡±


    Yin Xun sized Yin Mo up. Indeed, the high heels she was wearing now were comparable to stilts. Just looking at them made Yin Xun¡¯s feet hurt, let alone the person actually wearing them.


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll call Dad over and let him help you upstairs,¡± Yin Xun said in a low voice.


    After reading many melodramatic novels, Yin Xun¡¯s experience told her that this was the time when things were most likely to go wrong.

 Chapter 139 - 139 Double The Bad Luck

    139 Double The Bad Luck


    Although Yin Mo did not have a brain that knew how to harm others, Si Fan did. What if Si Fan wanted to do something to her again?


    After thinking about it, Yin Xun decided to let Yin Cheng take care of Yin Mo. Moreover, she had more important things to do. She still had to rope in the phone dealer.


    Yin Xun was about to leave when Yin Mo quickly stopped her. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t look for Dad. I¡¯ve been fighting with him for the past few days. Not only will he ignore me, but he¡¯ll also be angry with me. Sister, just help me upstairs. I won¡¯t take up too much of your time. Sister, please help me. As long as you help me this time, I promise I won¡¯t pester you anymore!¡±


    Yin Xun stopped in her tracks. Yin Mo was offering to would never pester her again? This was an alluring offer. She admitted that she was tempted by it.


    !!


    Yin Xun thought for a few seconds and decided to agree to Yin Mo¡¯s conditions.


    Just in case, Yin Xun asked for Yin Mo¡¯s room number. Then, he took out her phone and sent a message to the bodyguards, asking them to wait for her upstairs. At the same time, she sent them Yin Mo¡¯s room number.


    Now there was nothing to worry about now.


    Yin Xun supported Yin Mo as they walked out. Yin Mo¡¯s high heels made Yin Xun¡¯s feet hurt just by looking at them. The two of them took the elevator to the third floor, and Yin Xun sent Yin Mo to her room.


    After opening the door and entering, Yin Xun threw Yin Mo onto the sofa and said coldly, ¡°Alright, I sent you upstairs according to your request. You said that if I help you this time, you won¡¯t pester me anymore. I hope you can keep your word.¡±


    ¡°Sister, do you hate me that much?¡± Yin Mo asked, feeling aggrieved.


    Yin Xun said bluntly, ¡°That¡¯s right. I hope you have some self-awareness.¡±


    ¡°Sister, can you stay with me for a while? I¡¯m scared.¡± Seeing that Yin Xun was leaving, Yin Mo quickly found an excuse to make her stay.


    Yin Xun could not be bothered by her and walked toward the door. When her hand was about to touch the door handle, Yin Mo realized that Yin Xun really had no intention of staying. She panicked and quickly stopped her.


    ¡°Sister, wait. Actually, actually, I asked you to send me up here for selfish reasons¡­¡± Yin Mo saw that Yin Xun was about to leave again and did not know what to say to make her stay. She was so anxious that she said the truth.


    Yin Xun turned around and looked at her coldly. There was indeed something fishy going on.


    ¡°You want me to stay? Sure.¡± Yin Xun turned around and looked down at Yin Mo with her arms crossed.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had agreed to stay, Yin Mo was starting to feel happy when she heard Yin Xun continue, ¡°Tell me what¡¯s the matter first. If you don¡¯t, I¡¯ll leave.¡±


    ¡°Please don¡¯t, I¡¯ll tell you. Actually, a friend asked me to wait for him here. He said that we haven¡¯t seen each other for a long time and he misses me very much. He wanted to meet me, but I was afraid that Fan would misunderstand if he found out, so it¡¯s better for you to accompany me.¡± Yin Mo said shyly, as if she was about to meet her lover.


    So that was it.


    Yin Xun nodded in understanding. She turned around and sat beside Yin Mo, waiting for her legendary good friend.


    Yin Xun was also very curious about the person Yin Mo was about to meet. In the original novel, Si Fan was not the only man by Yin Mo¡¯s side. Although it was true that she loved Si Fan, as the female lead, how could the author only assign her one man? Other than Si Fan, there were also her childhood sweethearts and several secret admirers. There were also a few who liked and pursued her during school.


    Yin Mo had always been a saintess. No matter who came to get close to her, she would not reject them explicitly. She would treat everyone like a fragile white flower. It was because of this that her pursuers thought that they all had a chance and never gave up on pursuing her.


    It seemed that the person Yin Mo wanted to see might be one of these people. Otherwise, who would risk offending Si Fan to secretly meet Yin Mo?


    ¡°They¡¯re here!¡± Yin Xun was making guesses in her heart when Yin Mo suddenly shouted excitedly. Then, she put on her slippers and rushed to the door.


    At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Yin Mo quickly opened the door.


    Yin Xun had been looking in the direction of the door, so when Yin Mo opened the door, she saw the person standing outside.


    It was none other than Si Fan and Xing Cheng.


    When she saw the two of them, Yin Xun¡¯s expression instantly darkened. Seeing Xing Cheng was already bad enough. Now that Si Fan was added, the bad luck was doubled.


    It seemed that Yin Mo had not given up on getting her and Xing Cheng together. She would even resort to this.

 Chapter 140 - 140 Do You Want This Blessing?

    140 Do You Want This Blessing?


    She could only guess what these people would do next. If she did not agree to be with Xing Cheng, would Si Fan use a forceful method to force her to comply?


    The answer was yes. Why else would they insist on luring her to an empty house?


    Although she knew that she had been set up, Yin Xun did not panic at all. She just sat on the sofa leisurely and had no intention of leaving. She wanted to see how Yin Mo, her biological sister, would help outsiders deal with her.


    Yin Xun looked at the two people outside calmly. Xing Cheng, who was standing behind Si Fan, looked dejected. He did not even look up and directly questioned Si Fan impatiently, ¡°I have something to do. Why did you insist on me coming over? You don¡¯t have to say tell me. But if you don¡¯t say it, I¡¯ll leave.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. I won¡¯t trick you. I asked you to come over to give you a surprise. Come in first.¡± Si Fan raised his hand and pushed Xing Cheng in. Xing Cheng almost fell from his sudden push. He staggered a few times before stopping. He looked up and met Yin Xun¡¯s gaze.


    ¡°Young Master Xing, what a coincidence. I didn¡¯t expect us to meet here.¡± Yin Xun smiled gently at Xing Cheng.


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s smile, Xing Cheng¡¯s entire body instantly froze. Then, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, Xing Cheng screamed and hurriedly jerked back.


    ¡°Si Fan, are you toying with me?!¡± Xing Cheng suppressed his anger and questioned Si Fan. ¡°This is the surprise you mentioned? How is this a f*cking surprise? This is clearly a massive shock, okay?! I still have something on and don¡¯t have time to play with you. You guys play by yourselves. I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    Xing Cheng turned around and walked toward the door, but Si Fan stopped him.


    Si Fan¡¯s expression was not very nice. He did not expect Xing Cheng to not show him respect. In the past, Xing Cheng had wanted to get close to Yin Xun, but he had always failed.


    Today, he had already given Xing Cheng an opportunity, but Xing Cheng did not know how to seize it.


    If not for the fact that Xing Cheng had been in a bad mood after being released from prison, he was worried that their relationship would become distant, so he lured Yin Xun over. Otherwise, he would not have bothered to do such a thing.


    ¡°Yin Xun is here now. You can do whatever you want. There are only the few of us here. As long as we don¡¯t say anything, no one will know that you forced yourself on her. You don¡¯t have to worry about Yin Mo. Yin Mo is also very supportive of you being with her sister. As long as the two of you are together, we will be even closer in the future,¡± Si Fan advised patiently.


    Yin Xun did not expect Si Fan to be so bold. She was right beside him, yet he could still say such words so confidently.


    ¡°Yin Mo,¡± Yin Xun called out softly.


    ¡°Sister, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun innocently.


    Yin Xun looked at her and said indifferently, ¡°So this time, I was tricked by you again, right? You and Si Fan had long discussed that you wanted me to be with Xing Cheng, and you could use any method. What if I don¡¯t agree? What do you plan to do?¡±


    ¡°Hmph, in terms of family strength, the Yin family is no match for the Xing family. It¡¯s your good fortune that Xing Cheng took a fancy to you. Don¡¯t be ungrateful,¡± Si Fan warned Yin Xun coldly.


    Yin Xun glanced at him indifferently and said slowly, ¡°Then do you want this blessing?¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Si Fan wanted to say something, but he stopped after saying one word. He looked at Yin Xun and sneered. ¡°Yin Xun, you can say whatever you want. Anyway, you won¡¯t be able to leave this house today. Whether you agree or not, I have to let you be with Xing Cheng today. If you don¡¯t listen to him, don¡¯t blame us for using forceful methods.¡±


    According to Si Fan¡¯s plan, as long as Xing Cheng stayed with Yin Xun later and took a photo, their relationship would be confirmed. Even if Yin Xun wanted to refute in the future, no one would believe her.


    Yin Mo advised her from the side, ¡°Sister, Xing Cheng is really a good person. You two are very compatible. Actually, you like him too, right? It¡¯s just that you¡¯re too embarrassed to say it. Fan and I helped you today, so you don¡¯t have to thank me.¡±


    ¡°I like her, my *ss!¡± Xing Cheng, who had been silent, finally could not help but curse.


    From the moment he saw Yin Xun, he knew what Si Fan was up to. He said that he was helping him pursue Yin Xun, but it was actually for himself. If Si Fan was really doing this for his own good, why did he betray him back then?

 Chapter 141 - 141 There Are No Surveillance Cameras In This Room

    141 There Are No Surveillance Cameras In This Room


    Si Fan had always been in charge when it came to Xing Cheng sleeping with a woman. He was the one who destroyed all the evidence. If Si Fan did not intentionally want to do something against him, why would he let the previous evidence leak?


    No, why did not he destroy all of the evidence in the past? Instead, he kept much of it around, some of which was found by Yin Xun, causing him to be sentenced to jail directly.


    From this, it could be seen that Si Fan had wanted to harm him for a long time, but he just had never had the chance. Xing Cheng had no doubt that once his interests and Si Fan¡¯s clashed, Si Fan would definitely kill him without hesitation.


    ¡°Young Master Xing, don¡¯t be so anxious. I know you¡¯re still blaming my sister. She already knows her mistake. Please forgive her this once.¡± Seeing that Xing Cheng actually said that he did not like Yin Xun, Yin Mo instantly panicked.


    Si Fan had told her that no matter what happened today, she had to make Xing Cheng and Yin Xun be together. Otherwise, Si Fan would ignore her in the future.


    ¡°Who said I like your sister? I only wooed her back then because I made a bet with Si Fan. I don¡¯t like tomboys, okay?¡± Xing Cheng said impatiently.


    He wanted to leave, but Si Fan was blocking the door and he could not leave. If he left forcefully, he would definitely have an argument with Si Fan.


    When Xing Cheng had just been released from prison, he had already thought of taking revenge on Si Fan. Anyway, Si Fan was weak now. The Xing family did not need to take him seriously at all.


    However, Xing Li advised him to either kill Si Fan directly or not provoke him at all. A person like Si Fan was like a venomous snake. He usually did not move, but once Si Fan got the chance, Xing Cheng would definitely suffer. Xing Cheng¡¯s greatest strength was that he cherished his life. Moreover, he had been with Si Fan for so long, so he knew Si Fan quite well. He knew that Si Fan would do something like this, so he dismissed this particular thought.


    Since he could not afford to offend him, he could at least go overseas with his father. In the future, he would stay away from this group of people and never get involved in their matters again.


    However, from the looks of it, Si Fan did not give him a chance to leave. He wanted to tie him down to his side completely.


    Xing Cheng looked up at Yin Xun and saw that Yin Xun had been looking at them with a faint smile. According to his understanding of Yin Xun, she was definitely holding back her hand at this moment.


    No matter what, Xing Cheng had already suffered a few setbacks from Yin Xun. He did not want anything to happen again. He insisted on leaving, and he wanted to leave immediately.


    Who knew what would happen if he angered Yin Xun again? In any case, he did not want to gamble anymore. If Yin Xun sent him to prison a second time, he would really not get to live.


    ¡°Young Master Si, please settle the matter between the two of you by yourselves. I don¡¯t want to get involved with you anymore. I¡¯ll go overseas. Nothing can change my decision. As for Yin Xun, you can go after whoever you want. Anyway, don¡¯t come looking for me. I just want to stay far away from her.¡± Xing Cheng reached out and wanted to push Si Fan away.


    Seeing that Xing Cheng was determined to leave, Si Fan quickly gave Yin Mo a look.


    Yin Mo immediately understood. After hearing Xing Cheng¡¯s words, she knew that Xing Cheng really did not like Yin Xun. But it did not matter if he did not like her. As long as there was no deep hatred between the two of them, she would definitely be able to successfully matchmake them.


    ¡°Young Master Xing, are you going to abandon my sister? Back then, you pursued her so crazily that everyone knew about it. Now that you say you don¡¯t like her, how would my sister feel?¡± Yin Mo questioned in another way.


    ¡°Are you an idiot? Are you not aware of my relationship with your sister? Why are you doing this? Do you sisters hate each other so much that you want to matchmake us like this? I already said that I don¡¯t like her. I have another girl I like. The girl I like is much more feminine than your sister!¡±


    Xing Cheng explained as patiently as he could, then looked at Si Fan and said, ¡°Young Master Si, please make way. After all, we were brothers in the past. I don¡¯t want to fall out with you because of this.¡±


    ¡°We were brothers in the past, but aren¡¯t we brothers now?¡± Si Fan frowned when he saw that Xing Cheng was determined to leave. Xing Cheng had indeed changed. In the past, Xing Cheng had always listened to him and did whatever he was told to do. Now, he knew how to resist. This was going to be difficult.


    Xing Cheng sneered, ¡°Yes, naturally. So please make way for your brother. I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. There are no surveillance cameras in this room. No one will know what we plan to do. So, you can do whatever you want to Yin Xun without worry.¡± Si Fan did not give up and continued to persuade him.


    Yin Xun was bored watching from the side. She thought that something fun would happen, but in the end, Si Fan was just forcing Xing Cheng to commit a crime.


    In that case, she did not mind teaching them a lesson.


    What did Si Fan just say? There were no surveillance cameras in this room? Great, wasn¡¯t this convenient for her?

 Chapter 142 - 142 Si Fan Was Beaten Again

    142 Si Fan Was Beaten Again


    Just as she was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door. Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. They were here. It was time. She was about to call them.


    When the others heard the knock on the door, their hearts tightened. After all, what they wanted to do was not something honorable and they could not be discovered by others.


    ¡°Hello, I¡¯m a waitress. I¡¯m here to deliver dessert.¡± It was a sweet female voice.


    When Si Fan heard that it was a waitress, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Without thinking much, he turned around and opened the door.


    However, as he opened the door, before he could see what the person outside was like, he only saw a black shadow flash past his eyes before he fell to the ground. All the while, he did not know what had happened.


    The door had already been closed again. By the time Si Fan reacted, he was already pressed to the ground face down. Although he did not know what had happened, Xing Cheng and Yin Mo, who had been standing at the side, could see it clearly.


    Yin Mo screamed, ¡°Ah, who are you? Let go of Fan!¡±


    Yin Mo stood there without moving a single step. She only moved her mouth.


    Xing Cheng was also shocked. He stood there and did not dare to move, not knowing what was going on.


    The people who attended the event today were all elites from all walks of life. Could it be that this place had been targeted by the kidnappers? However, he saw that the person who had taken down Si Fan was just a slightly rough-looking girl. She did not wear a mask, so she did not look like a kidnapper.


    Just as everyone was trying to figure out what was going on and no one dared to say anything, the girl who was suppressing Si Fan spoke.


    ¡°Miss Yin, we waited outside for a while. There was no movement in the house, and we were worried that you would be in danger, so we acted on our own. Are you alright?¡± The girl lifted her head up to look at Yin Xun as she asked.


    Yin Xun smiled and shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m fine. You came at the right time. I was just about to look for you.¡±


    It turned out that these two female thugs were in cahoots with Yin Xun. Si Fan and Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun in disbelief.


    ¡°Young Master Si, just as you said, there are no surveillance cameras in this room. I wonder what you wanted Xing Cheng to do to me back then?¡± Yin Xun walked in front of Si Fan and looked down at him, who was lying on the ground.


    Si Fan struggled to get up, but he was not as strong as the female bodyguard. He could not get up at all, so he could only look at Yin Xun¡¯s shoes and could not raise his head at all.


    Xing Cheng, who was suddenly called out, panicked. He was afraid that Yin Xun would get someone to beat him up. After all, other than the woman who was pinning Si Fan, there was another person beside her. Moreover, this person looked stronger than the first one.


    ¡°Yin Xun, I wasn¡¯t planning to do anything. I don¡¯t want to touch you either. The grudge between you and Si Fan shouldn¡¯t have anything to do with me. Can I leave now?¡± Xing Cheng did not want to be involved with Si Fan at all and turned to ask Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun turned to look at Xing Cheng. Her gaze was cold and without a trace of warmth. Being stared at by her, Xing Cheng could not help but shiver.


    ¡°You can leave. You should know what to do, right?¡± Yin Xun said threateningly.


    Xing Cheng was very good at this kind of thing. He had once asked others the same type of question. He quickly nodded. ¡°I know. I didn¡¯t see anything. All of this has nothing to do with me. I just came to see a friend today, and then I left.¡±


    Yin Xun was very satisfied with Xing Cheng¡¯s reaction. She inclined her chin slightly and Xing Cheng hurriedly left.


    At this time, Si Fan was still paying attention to Xing Cheng¡¯s actions. Seeing that he had left, he quickly gave Yin Mo a look and said, ¡°Xiao Mo, go and persuade Xing Cheng.¡±


    One reason he sent Yin Mo away was that he really wanted Yin Mo to persuade Xing Cheng not to leave. After all, the company still needed Xing Cheng¡¯s help with funding. Another reason was that he did not want Yin Mo to see him in such a sorry state. Otherwise, he would lose all his dignity in front of Yin Mo in the future.


    ¡°But what should I say?¡± At this moment, Yin Mo was a little flustered and did not know what to do.


    ¡°Go comfort Xing Cheng and apologize to him at the same time. Tell him that we didn¡¯t think it through and that¡¯s why he¡¯s uncomfortable. It won¡¯t happen again in the future. If there¡¯s another chance in the future, I¡¯ll make it up to him. Tell him not to be angry anymore.¡± Si Fan explained to Yin Mo word by word.


    ¡°What about you?¡± Yin Mo asked worriedly.


    Si Fan was already very impatient, but he could not lose his temper with Yin Mo now, so he could only continue to comfort her patiently. ¡°Yin Xun is your sister, and I¡¯m your boyfriend. She won¡¯t do anything to me. At most, she¡¯ll just scare us.¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun and asked with her eyes, but Yin Xun only looked at them with a faint smile and did not say anything.


    ¡°Sister, Si Fan is my boyfriend. Don¡¯t bully him!¡± Yin Mo instructed Yin Xun before she left.

 Chapter 143 - 143 Don’t Leave Any Evidence

    143 Don¡¯t Leave Any Evidence


    After Yin Mo left, only Yin Xun, Si Fan, and the two bodyguards were left in the room.


    Si Fan said coldly, ¡°You¡¯re really not a simple person. Let¡¯s talk. Make her let go of me first.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m not interested in talking to a defeated opponent.¡± Yin Xun looked at the time and said, ¡°I have something to do outside. There are no surveillance cameras in this room. You know what to do. Don¡¯t leave any evidence.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± The two female bodyguards replied.


    !!


    As Yin Xun closed the door, the sound of fists hitting flesh and muffled groans came from inside. Yin Xun stood at the door for two seconds, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.


    Si Fan was a prideful person. He would not tell anyone that he had been beaten by a woman.


    At the thought of this, Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had found bodyguards in advance. Otherwise, looking at Si Fan today, he would not let her leave without skinning her alive.


    From this, it could be seen that she had made the right decision to open hostilities with Si Fan. At the very least, this way, the two of them were already enemies on the surface and did not have to worry about superficial greetings.


    Yin Xun returned to the hall and came to Yin Cheng¡¯s side.


    ¡°Where did you go? Why didn¡¯t I see you anywhere?¡± Yin Cheng asked in a low voice.


    ¡°I just met an old friend and exchanged a few pleasantries. It¡¯s nothing,¡± Yin Xun said nonchalantly.


    ¡°Is your sister here? Just now, I saw a girl who looked very much like your sister chase after Xing Cheng. But she was dressed too indecently and didn¡¯t really look like your sister,¡± Yin Cheng said with a frown.


    He wanted to call her just now, but he was afraid that it would be awkward if he called the wrong person, so he did not dare to.


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t doubt yourself. The one who was dressed in sexy clothes just now was Yin Mo. She said that she was dressed like this to accompany Si Fan to discuss business matters.¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°What? It¡¯s really her! She dares to wear that kind of clothing?!¡± Yin Cheng was instantly furious. He turned around and walked out. As he walked, he said, ¡°Does she think that it¡¯s not enough to embarrass the Yin family? This time, I have to lock her up at home. Even if she dies, she has to die at home. She¡¯s not allowed to go out!¡±


    When Yin Xun saw Yin Cheng leave angrily, she shrugged and did not care.


    Yin Mo should be taught a lesson by Yin Cheng.


    Suddenly, Yin Xun saw two familiar people from the corner of her eye. She immediately turned around and saw the chairmen of Xiaoguo and Zhenku chatting together.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up. She picked up a glass of red wine and walked toward the two of them.


    ¡°President Lei, President Zhang, it¡¯s nice to meet you. I am the eldest daughter of the Yin Corporation, Yin Xun. It is an honor to meet you both.¡± Yin Xun greeted the two of them with a smile.


    The two CEOs looked at Yin Xun in surprise and replied politely, ¡°So you¡¯re the daughter of the Yin family. I wonder why you¡¯re looking for us?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Seniors, I¡¯ve been starting a business recently and plan to open an online shopping company. I¡¯m looking for a mobile phone partner. You two are the partners I¡¯m looking for today. Do you have any requests in this regard?¡±


    Logically speaking, when asking if they wanted to cooperate, she should first ask if the other party agreed before discussing the request. However, Yin Xun ignored the first step and directly asked them for their requests.


    Most importantly, she knew that her company had just started. They would definitely not trust her. As long as she asked them the usual way, they would definitely reject her. However, it would be different if she asked them another way.


    It was like buying something. The waiter would not ask if you wanted this thing. Instead, he would ask if you wanted red or blue. This could greatly increase the chances of customers buying things. That was what Yin Xun was aiming for when she asked the question.


    However, she did not really expect to get a collaboration with a few opportunistic words.


    After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, the two chairmen looked at each other with disdainful expressions.


    However, although they looked down on her in his heart, they were very good at acting.


    President Lei used a humorous tone to reject her. ¡°Miss Yin, you really know how to joke. Your Yin family is a real estate giant. If you want to collaborate with us to invest in real estate, then we can still consider it. Coincidentally, our company can also open a side business. But you are talking about starting an online company. We are just a small company and can¡¯t take the risk, so please find another brilliant company.¡±


    Yin Xun had already guessed that she would be rejected, so she was not discouraged or embarrassed. Instead, she smiled and said, ¡°Seniors, don¡¯t be in a hurry to reject. Listen to me first before deciding.¡±

 Chapter 144 - 144 More Inclined To Si Fan

    144 More Inclined To Si Fan


    Lei Yuan had indeed come to the cocktail party to find a partner for his Xiaoguo phone brand. However, he felt that Xiaoguo and Zhenku¡¯s phones were already considered relatively mature domestic brands. It felt a little degrading to work with a company that had just started.


    Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi looked at each other. They were not interested in working with Yin Xun because, in their eyes, Yin Xun was just a young lady who did not know about the world. This so-called entrepreneurship might be done on a spur of the moment. After all, for the Yin family, which was a giant in the construction industry, it was easy for them to fork out such a small sum of money for her to play with.


    However, all their assets were in the mobile phone business, so they attached great importance to every collaboration.


    If Yin Xun failed, she would at most lose some money. However, if they failed, what awaited them was bankruptcy. However, for the sake of the Yin family, they could not embarrass Yin Xun too much, so they decided to listen to Yin Xun.


    ¡°Miss Yin, speak. We will listen, but whether or not we can work together is not certain.¡± Lei Yuan looked at Yin Xun as he spoke.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Okay.¡± As long as he listened, she would have a chance.


    Then, Yin Xun told the two chairmen about her company¡¯s future plans and development, as well as the future trend of the Internet.


    Yin Xun knew that the two brands were about to launch new products. If the two parties worked together, they could use the new phone models to install the app. They could test the effect first.


    Yin Xun spoke logically. Originally, the two of them thought that Yin Xun was just making fun of them. They did not expect Yin Xun to be serious. The two of them stopped looking down on her and their expressions became solemn.


    Especially when they heard that Yin Xun¡¯s software was a combination of shopping and adding friends to chat, the two of them fell silent.


    They have never heard of this idea before. Not only could they do shopping, but people could also add each other as friends. Putting aside whether it was convenient or not, it would be very difficult to study this software. Even if Yin Xun had a master in charge, running such software was also a problem. If people could not carry their phones around, their phone brand would be the first to collapse.


    Yin Xun¡¯s idea was very good, but it was not very realistic.


    ¡°Miss Yin.¡± After a moment, Lei Yuan finally spoke. ¡°If I am not wrong, Si Fan should be your brother-in-law, right?¡±


    ¡°My sister isn¡¯t married to him yet, so that¡¯s not the case yet,¡± Yin Xun answered truthfully.


    ¡°Not yet.¡± Zhang Yi nodded and continued, ¡°Then do you know that Si Fan¡¯s Blue Fox Company is mainly involved in online shopping? Moreover, from what I know, he seems to be showing signs of developing in the mobile phone business. From what you¡¯re saying, you¡¯re not partners with him, so are you considered competitors now?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Although we have a relationship because of my sister, we have always done our own things in the business world. We won¡¯t disturb each other.¡± Yin Xun did not mind saying this at all.


    The two chairmen looked at each other. They understood that Yin Xun and Si Fan were now on opposing sides. Now that they were thinking of collaborating, it also depended on which side the two of them would side with.


    Anyone with a discerning eye would know who to choose. They would definitely choose Si Fan.


    After all, even if Yin Xun was richer, her family did not work in this field, so the success rate was not very high. On the other hand, Si Fan had been in this industry for many years and was familiar with the company. It was obvious that Si Fan¡¯s success rate was the highest.


    It was too obvious who was more suitable.


    The two of them already knew what to do, but with Yin Xun¡¯s presence here, they could not speak too directly.


    Lei Yuan looked at Yin Xun and put on the air of a mature elder as he laughed and said, ¡°Miss Yin, although we really want to support you, we are different from you. You are young, and you have the support of the Yin family, so you can afford to play around. But we cannot. We are old, and there is a company full of people that we need to support. In terms of cooperation, we cannot afford any mistakes. So, we can only turn down your good intentions¡­¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes flashed and immediately understood what Lei Yuan meant. It seemed that she had been rejected.


    In their eyes, Si Fan was more experienced.


    ¡°So the two of you actually want to work with Si Fan?¡± Yin Xun was not anxious. Instead, she asked calmly.


    Zhang Yi was afraid that Yin Xun would misunderstand. After all, the Yin family was not to be trifled with. He quickly explained, ¡°Miss Yin, don¡¯t misunderstand. It¡¯s not that we don¡¯t trust you, we just want to be safe.¡±


    ¡°If you¡¯re in the real estate industry and come to us to invest, we¡¯ll support you even if we don¡¯t have much money. After all, we can still be friends. However, the Internet and real estate are two completely different fields of projects. The Yin family can¡¯t provide you with the most effective help. The Internet is different from physical objects. It¡¯s easy to lose customers.¡±

 Chapter 145 - 145 What Are You Doing?

    145 What Are You Doing?


    Hearing Zhang Yi¡¯s words, Yin Xun knew the reason for his rejection. He did not trust her ability and thought she would definitely fail. Actually, it was normal for him to think this way. Yin Xun was not in a hurry to prove herself. She wanted these two to cooperate with her willingly.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be in a hurry to make a decision. You haven¡¯t heard the terms of my cooperation. Although the probability of our cooperation is very low, I think that since we¡¯ve been talking for so long, we should just say everything that needs to be said to avoid any misunderstandings in the future,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Okay, Miss Yin, please go ahead. We are listening,¡± Lei Yuan said with a smile.


    Seeing that the two of them agreed, Yin Xun continued, ¡°If the two of you decide to cooperate with us, you only need to agree to add our software to your phones. We will be in charge of the rest of the technical work. Not only will we give you remuneration, but we will also give you a cut of the profits.¡±


    After Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi heard this, they were a little tempted by this condition. This would actually have a positive impact on their phones and they could even earn a lot of money.


    However, although the conditions were good, there was still the same issue. Yin Xun¡¯s company had just started. It was impossible for her to beat Si Fan¡¯s company. If they failed, the consequences would be bad.


    Therefore, Yin Xun¡¯s current behavior felt like empty words.


    ¡°Miss Yin, although your conditions are very tempting, I am sorry. We still feel that we should go and talk to Si Fan. After all, everyone hopes to work with a more reliable company.¡± Zhang Yi still rejected her.


    Seeing that the two of them still did not agree, Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°Sure, you two can do whatever you want. Business should always be about choosing the best.¡±


    After a pause, Yin Xun continued, ¡°However, compared to our domestically-produced phones, the imported brand P-Brand phones seem to be more mature in their development. If Si Fan were to choose, I think he would be more inclined to work with that company. If the two of you compete with P-Brand phones at the same time, I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t have much of a chance of winning. The CEO of the P-Brand has always wanted to dominate alone. I wonder if the two of you have noticed that domestically-produced phones have been deliberately suppressed recently.¡±


    ¡°If Si Fan really collaborates with P-Brand in the end, they will definitely not agree to Si Fan continuing to collaborate with other cell phone brands,¡± Yin Xun said as she took a sip of red wine.


    Yin Xun¡¯s tone was very light, but Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi¡¯s hearts skipped a beat when they heard this. These words made them feel a little uncomfortable. However, they could not be angry because Yin Xun was telling the truth.


    Unexpectedly, their situation was actually seen through by a little girl like Yin Xun. Just as Yin Xun had said, their mobile phone market had always been suppressed by P-Brand. Before P-Brand came to the country, their two brands were still competitors with each other. Now, they had become allies.


    ¡°If the two of you think Si Fan is more suitable, then give it a try.¡± Yin Xun raised his glass with a smile and clinked it with the two of them. Then, she took a sip, indicating that she had finished speaking.


    Before Yin Xun arrived, Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi had been talking about Si Fan. Now that Yin Xun had said this, it would be even more awkward for them to stay here.


    ¡°Then I¡¯m sorry, Miss Yin. We¡¯ll head over first.¡± Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi bade farewell to Yin Xun, then walked into the hall. They saw Si Fan walking in that direction just now.


    At this moment, outside the hotel, Yin Mo had already chased Xing Cheng to the parking lot. Finally, when Xing Cheng stopped and opened the car door, she caught up to him.


    ¡°Young Master Xing, don¡¯t leave yet. Wait for me. I have something to tell you!¡± Yin Mo rushed forward and stopped Xing Cheng from getting into the car. She knew that once Xing Cheng got into the car, she would have run all the way here for nothing.


    ¡°Yin Mo, what are you trying to do? I don¡¯t care what¡¯s going on between you and Si Fan. I don¡¯t want to get involved with you anymore!¡± Xing Cheng frowned and said unhappily.


    He knew the answer from the moment Yin Mo chased after him, but he did not want to talk to her, so he kept walking very quickly. He originally thought that he would hurry to the parking lot and drive away. However, he did not expect Yin Mo to be so good at running. She could catch up to him even in high heels.


    This time, Yin Mo¡¯s feet really started to hurt. She bent over slightly and panted heavily. Because her chest was very low, when she bent over, the view down her chest was exposed.


    In the past, Xing Cheng might have secretly taken a few extra glances at her, but now, not only was he not interested at all, he even felt that Yin Mo was too stupid and troublesome for his time. He had to stay away.


    ¡°Young Master Xing, we¡¯ve let you down. I didn¡¯t realize that you don¡¯t like my sister anymore. I thought you liked her, so I wanted to matchmake the two of you. But you have to believe that we¡¯re being considerate¡­¡± Yin Mo said to Xing Cheng after adjusting her breathing.

 Chapter 146 - 146 The Pleasure Of Revenge

    146 The Pleasure Of Revenge


    ¡°I don¡¯t care if you have good intentions or bad ones. In any case, I won¡¯t have anything to do with Yin Xun anymore, so you don¡¯t have to worry about this in the future. You don¡¯t have to apologize either. I know Si Fan asked you to come out. I don¡¯t want to get involved in your matters anymore. Go back.¡± Xing Cheng waved his hand, indicating for Yin Mo to move away.


    However, Yin Mo stood beside Xing Cheng¡¯s car door and did not leave. Si Fan had asked her to come out and persuade Xing Cheng not to leave. She had to complete this mission, or Si Fan would lose a helper in the future.


    ¡°Young Master Xing, it¡¯s not that I¡¯m being nosy, but this is the critical period of Fan¡¯s company¡¯s development. He needs help now. Fan doesn¡¯t have many true friends, and you¡¯re one of them. He¡¯s always been sincere to you, but recently, he realized that you haven¡¯t been close to him since you came out of prison, so he came up with this plan.¡± Yin Mo wanted to explain on Si Fan¡¯s behalf.


    ¡°Fan has done so much to make you happy, but can you please not go overseas for his sake? If you stay and help him, his company will definitely improve. If anything happens to you in the future, he will help you.¡±


    In order to keep Xing Cheng around, Yin Mo told him everything that he had taught her in the past.


    Xing Cheng did not expect Yin Mo to say such a thing. He looked at Yin Mo in shock and asked, ¡°Yin Mo, what kind of person do you think Si Fan is?¡±


    Yin Mo recalled her past with Si Fan and her expression immediately became sweet. She smiled and said, ¡°Not only is Fan handsome, but he also has good character and strength. He¡¯s an outstanding person in all aspects.¡±


    In the end, Yin Mo¡¯s face turned red. She was actually feeling shy.


    Xing Cheng immediately felt disgusted. He spat, ¡°Yin Mo, I think your brain has been kicked by a donkey. Have you become stupid from all the dating? Si Fan is at most just a friend. Why should I stay and help him? I have my own things to do. Do you think everyone has nothing to do every day like you and only revolves around Si Fan?¡±


    ¡°But Fan treats you so well¡­¡± Yin Mo still wanted to persuade him.


    ¡°Stop!¡± This time, Xing Cheng did not let Yin Mo continue. ¡°Yin Mo, sometimes I even wonder if you¡¯re from the Yin family or Si Fan¡¯s. You actually helped Si Fan try to harm your own sister. You¡¯ve really opened my eyes.¡±


    ¡°Do you think Si Fan treats you so well just because he likes you? Dream on. How can Si Fan be that kind of person? He¡¯s an extreme egoist. He treats you well for a reason!¡± Initially, Xing Cheng did not plan to get involved in this mess, but Yin Mo was too infuriating. She would not stop chasing after him.


    Since Yin Mo was so obsessed, he did not mind splashing cold water on her to calm her down.


    Yin Mo did not know what Xing Cheng meant and looked at him in confusion. ¡°What do you mean?¡±


    ¡°What do I mean? It¡¯s obvious!¡± Xing Cheng sneered. ¡°Si Xia¡¯s health isn¡¯t good and he needs a heart transplant for her. However, it¡¯s not that easy to find a matching heart. Didn¡¯t you realize that Si Fan often asks you to go to the hospital for a checkup?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s true that Fan often makes me go for a checkup, but at the same time, he won¡¯t let me do anything unhealthy. That¡¯s because Fan loves me too much. He did this for my health.¡± Yin Mo refused to believe it, so she tried her best to convince herself.


    ¡°I think even if I don¡¯t continue, you can understand what I¡¯m saying. The reason Si Fan treats you so well is that he likes your heart. He doesn¡¯t love you at all. He loves his half-sister!¡± After saying this, Xing Cheng actually felt the pleasure of revenge.


    In the past, he had always treated Si Fan as a brother and had never thought of scheming against him. However, Si Fan had actually schemed against him for a small profit. Si Fan and Yin Mo had played him like a fool and caused him to become a laughing stock. No one would remain a fool forever unless this person had never suffered a setback.


    He had already suffered a setback at Si Fan¡¯s hands, so he did not intend to suffer a second time. If he could, it would be better if he could cause some trouble for Si Fan.


    Anyway, he was going overseas now. Even if he provoked Si Fan, as long as it was not a big problem, Si Fan would not make a move on him.


    After Yin Mo heard Xing Cheng¡¯s words, her face instantly turned pale. She shook her head and retreated, muttering, ¡°No, that¡¯s impossible. Fan loves me. He said it himself.¡±


    ¡°What a joke. He even personally said that he treated me as a brother. In the end, he still schemed against me.¡± Xing Cheng sneered and felt that Yin Mo¡¯s words were ridiculous.

 Chapter 147 - 147 Bullying His Daughter Again

    147 Bullying His Daughter Again


    Yin Mo leaned against Xing Cheng¡¯s car door and stared at him angrily as she asked, ¡°Are you still angry? You must be really angry to want to sow discord between us. I won¡¯t fall for it. Fan loves me. We¡¯ve been together for so long. He won¡¯t lie to me!¡±


    Xing Cheng rolled his eyes. He did not expect Yin Mo to trust Si Fan so much.


    However, it had nothing to do with him whether she believed him or not. Xing Cheng walked in front of Yin Mo and pushed her to the side mercilessly. Yin Mo lost her balance because of her shoes and fell.


    Coincidentally, Yin Cheng came out and saw this.


    ¡°You brat, is it not enough that you bullied my eldest daughter in the past? Now, you¡¯re bullying my youngest daughter too?!¡± Yin Cheng saw Yin Mo being pushed down by Xing Cheng and cursed as he rushed over.


    When Xing Cheng saw this, in order to avoid trouble, he opened the car door and quickly got in. He started the car and drove away before Yin Cheng ran over.


    Right now, Xing Cheng knew he had to stay away from the Yin family. After all, that lunatic Yin Xun was capable of anything. Si Fan had probably been beaten up by now.


    ¡°Dad¡­¡± Yin Mo knew that Yin Cheng was here, so she got up from the ground.


    Yin Cheng took off his suit jacket and put it over Yin Mo. Although he was still angry at Yin Mo, she was still his daughter. No matter how many mistakes she made, he could not bear to see Yin Mo suffer.


    ¡°That brat, it looks like he still hasn¡¯t learned his lesson. He dares to touch our family.¡± Yin Cheng looked in the direction where Xing Cheng had disappeared and cursed, ¡°He¡¯s lucky he got away quickly. Otherwise, if I got my hands on him, he would be beaten up so badly that even his father wouldn¡¯t recognize him.¡±


    After cursing, Xing Cheng turned around and asked Yin Mo, ¡°Lil Mo, did Xing Cheng do anything to you just now?¡±


    ¡°No, sob¡­ sob¡­¡± Before Yin Mo could finish, she started crying.


    Her sudden crying stunned Yin Cheng. He thought that something must have happened to Yin Mo and he panicked. Yin Cheng quickly helped Yin Mo into the hotel and planned to get her to rest for a while.


    After he helped Yin Mo into the hotel, he still could not find Yin Xun, so he gave up and stopped looking for her.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was leaning in a corner watching Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi go to look for Si Fan. She looked at the time. Si Fan should have come out of the house by now.


    Sure enough, she soon saw Si Fan walking out with a foreign chairman, chatting and laughing. This foreigner was the chairman of the P-brand phone.


    On close inspection, it could be seen that Si Fan was walking with a slight limp.


    When Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi saw Si Fan, they followed him and waited quietly not far away.


    Si Fan and the CEO talked all the way. The two of them seemed to be very satisfied with each other¡¯s conditions. When they finally separated, they were both smiling.


    When Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi saw Si Fan and the foreign chairman separate, they quickly went up to him.


    Yin Xun knew Si Fan well. She knew that Si Fan liked to worship the strong and trample on the weak. He only had eyes for the best in the industry. He probably would not even spare a glance at a domestic brand.


    As expected, when Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi went forward to talk to him, the smile on Si Fan¡¯s face disappeared. Instead, he looked at the two of them coldly with a hint of impatience.


    ¡°What a coincidence, CEO Si. I didn¡¯t expect to meet you here.¡± Lei Yuan smiled and greeted him. ¡°I wanted to talk to you the last time we met, but I never had the chance. Are you free this time?¡±


    Si Fan looked at the two of them coldly. He had seen them talking to Yin Xun just now. It seemed that they originally wanted to work with Yin Xun, but Yin Xun rejected them, so they turned to him.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m very busy,¡± Si Fan rejected them coldly.


    Lei Yuan did not expect Si Fan to not show even a shred of respect. Although his mobile phone brand was not outstanding, he was still a chairman after all. To think he was treated like this by Si Fan.


    The anticipation he felt just now was instantly dashed. He even lost the desire to continue communicating with Si Fan.


    ¡°President Si is indeed a busy person. It¡¯s normal for you to be busy. Please continue with your work.¡± Although Lei Yuan wanted to throw a tantrum, his upbringing told him not to do so. It was not good for this occasion, so he still had a smile on his face.


    Si Fan glanced at Yin Xun, who was looking over not far away. Although he was not interested in domestic brands, he still said casually, ¡°It¡¯s okay. If there¡¯s anything, you can say it quickly. I can give you three minutes.¡±


    Lei Yuan, ¡°¡­¡±

 Chapter 148 - 148 I’ll Die In Front Of You

    148 I¡¯ll Die In Front Of You


    Although he was very unhappy, Lei Yuan knew that because Si Fan was so powerful, there were many manufacturers who wanted to work with him. Therefore, he had the right to be arrogant.


    Hence, Lei Yuan tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart. He smiled and continued, ¡°I heard that CEO Si wants to shift the focus of the Internet to his phone. Is that true?¡±


    Si Fan immediately knew why Lei Yuan was talking to him. He nodded coldly and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. So you want to work with me?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m just asking out of curiosity. Don¡¯t think too much into it, CEO Si.¡± Lei Yuan originally wanted to mention the prospects of collaboration with Si Fan, but he did not expect Si Fan to be so haughty.


    !!


    No matter how good his temper was, he was still furious at being looked down on like this.


    He was a dignified chairman, not someone working in market research or sales. Why should he be bullied by Si Fan?


    However, although Lei Yuan was a very dignified person, Zhang Yi was not. Although Si Fan¡¯s attitude was not very nice, Zhang Yi still decided to discuss business with Si Fan for the sake of the company¡¯s future development.


    He put on a smile and said, ¡°President Si, we came here to talk to you about collaboration prospects. Are you interested?¡±


    Si Fan was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he asked him, ¡°Were you discussing a collaboration with Yin Xun just now?¡±


    Although telling the truth now would improve his image in Si Fan¡¯s heart, Zhang Yi still adhered to the principle of not betraying others, so he did not intend to tell the truth.


    After all, Yin Xun and Si Fan were competitors now. He did not know how much Si Fan knew about Yin Xun¡¯s company. It would be a sin if Yin Xun was targeted by Si Fan because of his loose mouth.


    Moreover, although Yin Xun was not intimidating by herself, the power behind her was that of the entire Yin Family. Offending the Yin Family was equivalent to offending the entire construction industry.


    Zhang Yi deliberated for a moment before answering ambiguously, ¡°The Yin family¡¯s construction industry is really booming. Miss Yin Xun just asked us how far our new phone has been developed.¡±


    He seemed to have answered the question, but he did not actually say anything significant. Yin Xun had been paying attention to the commotion not far away. When she heard Zhang Yi¡¯s answer, she was very satisfied.


    It seemed that the person she had chosen was indeed a good choice. At least he knew how to conduct himself.


    Si Fan nodded. At first, he thought that Yin Xun was up to something, but now it seemed like he was overthinking. Naturally, whatever Yin Xun did, she would rely on the Yin family. Even if she wanted to do something, it should only be related to the Yin Family¡¯s business.


    Since Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi had nothing to do with Yin Xun, there was no need for him to be so wary of them. It seemed that these two wanted to cooperate with him.


    Although he was not interested in such a small manufacturer, it would not be a bad thing if there were many avenues to put his application up.


    ¡°I can¡­¡± Si Fan was about to speak when a figure suddenly rushed over.


    ¡°Fan¡­ Wuwuwu¡­¡± It was Yin Mo who was still crying.


    Yin Mo did not care if there was anyone there. She rushed into Si Fan¡¯s arms and buried herself in his chest, sobbing softly. Yin Cheng was not far away. When he saw Yin Mo acting like this, he was instantly furious. He had genuinely felt sorry for Yin Mo just now. In the end, Yin Mo still went to Si Fan to ask for comfort.


    Si Fan was about to talk about business when he was suddenly interrupted by Yin Mo. His face was instantly filled with impatience as he pushed Yin Mo away.


    ¡°Lil Mo, I¡¯m in the middle of a discussion. If there¡¯s anything else, please wait until I¡¯m done. Be good,¡± Si Fan suppressed his temper and spoke to her.


    Yin Mo¡¯s heart ached. Although Si Fan had pushed her away, she reached out to hold Si Fan¡¯s hand again. ¡°But¡­¡±


    ¡°Lil Mo, can¡¯t you see that I¡¯m busy with serious matters? If you don¡¯t listen to me, I¡¯ll be angry!¡± In front of so many people, he could not directly reprimand Yin Mo, so he could only patiently persuade her.


    Yin Mo¡¯s face was pale. Although she really wanted to ask Si Fan if he really loved her, she also knew that she could not delay Si Fan¡¯s work, so she finally let go of Si Fan and retreated to the side to look at him obediently.


    Si Fan had just convinced Yin Mo when his phone rang.


    He looked at the name on the screen and his expression changed slightly. He glanced at Yin Mo and walked to the side to answer the call.


    ¡°Brother, I want to see you now. Come to the hospital and accompany me¡­¡± Si Xia¡¯s weak voice came through the phone.


    Si Fan frowned slightly and comforted her in a low voice. ¡°Xiaxia, I¡¯m working now. If there¡¯s anything, look for the doctor. I¡¯ll see you immediately after I¡¯m done¡­¡±


    However, Si Xia did not intend to let him off. He cried, ¡°Brother, I don¡¯t care. If you still acknowledge me as your sister, then hurry up and come back to see me. I know you¡¯re with Yin Mo now. If you don¡¯t come back and continue to accompany her, then I¡¯ll die in front of you!¡±

 Chapter 149 - 149 Successfully Forged A Partnership

    149 Successfully Forged A Partnership


    Si Xia¡¯s threat did the trick. Although Si Fan was very exasperated, he still decided to go back.


    He glanced at Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi and said coldly, ¡°If you want to work with me, take the information to my assistant and pass it to him. I¡¯ll read it when I have time.¡±


    With that, he turned around and left.


    ¡°Fan, what are you going to do?¡± Yin Mo hurriedly chased after him and tugged Si Fan¡¯s arm.


    Si Fan¡¯s face was full of impatience, but he did not dare to make it too obvious, so he could only suppress his emotions and try to put on a smile. ¡°Xiaxia is not feeling well. I¡¯m going to the hospital to see her.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll go with you!¡± Yin Mo did not let go of him.


    Si Fan frowned and pushed Yin Mo away. He said in a deep voice, ¡°You know that Xiaxia has never liked you, so you¡¯re just making things difficult for her. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take care of Xiaxia. You can go over when she¡¯s better.¡±


    With that, Si Fan ignored Yin Mo and left.


    Yin Mo could tell that Si Fan was only thinking of Si Xia and did not care about her feelings at all. She instantly felt disappointed. Could it be that what Xing Cheng said was true?


    She had vaguely heard quite a bit of the conversation between Si Fan and Si Xia. It turned out that as long as Si Xi coaxed him, Si Fan would immediately rush over to her. However, why did Si Fan pretend not to see it when Yin Mo did the same?


    Yin Mo ignored Yin Cheng, who had come to look for her, and stumbled out.


    Seeing Yin Mo¡¯s reaction, although Yin Cheng was angry, he could not leave her alone. Yin Mo ran outside while crying. With her current mental state, it would be bad if something happened to her.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun, who was not far away, and walked toward her anxiously.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Dad?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    ¡°Your sister just went to look for Si Fan. I don¡¯t know what they said, but Si Fan left and your sister ran away crying. I¡¯m worried that something might happen to your sister, so I want to go out and look for her,¡± Yin Cheng explained.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Then go quickly. I still have some business to discuss later so I can¡¯t follow you. Call me if you need help.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m leaving. Then you¡­¡± Yin Cheng looked at the various people around him and remembered that this was Yin Xun¡¯s first time coming to such a formal place. He was worried that something would happen to her.


    Yin Xun smiled and comforted him. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m not a child anymore. I¡¯ll get the driver to pick me up after the cocktail party. Don¡¯t worry.¡±


    Yin Cheng was still worried. He instructed, ¡°Alright then. Remember, no matter who offers you wine, don¡¯t drink it. Hurry home after you¡¯re done. Don¡¯t hang around¡­¡±


    ¡°Dad, I understand. If you don¡¯t chase after Yin Mo now, you might not be able to find her.¡±


    Yin Cheng wanted to say a few more words to Yin Xun, but he was interrupted by Yin Xun, reminding him that Yin Mo had been gone for a long time.


    After Yin Cheng left, Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi, who had been paying attention to the situation here, walked over. The two of them looked a little awkward.


    They regretted rejecting Yin Xun¡¯s invitation and insisting on asking Si Fan. Their warm greetings were repaid with coldness. Before they could finish speaking their part, Si Fan had abandoned them and left on his own!


    Their companies were small, but even they had their dignity. Since Si Fan was so disrespectful to them, there was no need for them to beg Si Fan anymore.


    ¡°Miss Yin, it was our fault just now. I¡¯m not sure if the collaboration that you mentioned just now¡­¡± Lei Yuan used a smile to hide his awkwardness as he looked at Yin Xun.


    ¡°As long as the two seniors are willing, I¡¯ll join you at any time.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    She did not know why Si Fan had left just now, nor did she know what Si Fan had discussed with the two of them. However, when she saw that Lei Yuan and Zhang Yi¡¯s expressions were not good the entire time, she knew that Si Fan must have looked down on them. However, this was just right for her. Thankfully, Si Fan¡¯s arrogance allowed her to snag a collaboration.


    Yin Xun almost laughed out loud. It took a lot of effort to control her expression.


    With Si Fan¡¯s actions, Xiaoguo and Zhenku would definitely not work with him. In that case, she would happily accept their collaboration.


    ¡°The terms are the same as before. We will pay for all the research and development costs. You can still take a share when the time comes.¡± Yin Xun did not mind being neglected earlier.


    ¡°Miss Yin is young, but she has such magnanimity. She will surely succeed in the future.¡± Not only was Yin Xun not upset about what had happened earlier, but she was still so polite when discussing the terms of collaboration. Zhang Yi was very impressed.

 Chapter 150 - 150 You’re Here Too

    150 You¡¯re Here Too


    Yin Xun had come here today mainly to discuss the possibility of a collaboration. She had believed that there would be more discussions in the future, but Yin Xun was already very satisfied with the results tonight.


    Yin Xun was in a good mood. She looked at the time. Since the mission had been completed, there was no need to stay here any longer.


    Just as she was about to leave, she turned around and saw a familiar figure.


    ¡°Hey, you¡¯re here too!¡± Yin Xun greeted the person cheerfully.


    The person walking over was Fang Yao.


    In fact, Fang Yao had arrived a long time ago, but he was not at the cocktail party. Instead, he had been watching from upstairs. He originally had nothing to do and did not plan to come over, but he knew that this was Yin Xun¡¯s first time dealing with such an event, so he was a little worried. He was afraid that she would not be able to handle it, so he came over to see if she needed help.


    Although some things did happen during the process, the result was still very good. This surprised him. Yin Xun had negotiated the cooperation so perfectly for her first time. She was indeed right about this business partner.


    Fang Yao smiled and said, ¡°I was busy with something else just now. How¡¯s the collaboration going? Are they easy to talk to?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s perfect. It¡¯s all thanks to Si Fan¡¯s arrogance that Xiaoguo and Zhenku are unhappy with him. They came straight to me for a collaboration.¡± Yin Xun lowered her voice and happily told Fang Yao what had just happened.


    Fang Yao listened attentively. After that, he raised his eyebrows and said, ¡°Looks like you still have some problems. If you have any hurdles next time, you can ask me for help.¡±


    Yin Xun waved her hand and said nonchalantly, ¡°It¡¯s just a small matter that¡¯s not worth mentioning. It¡¯s easy to resolve. You don¡¯t have to do anything.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded and did not say anything else.


    He looked at the time and asked, ¡°How did you get here?¡±


    ¡°I came with my father, but he probably drove the car away. I¡¯ll get the driver to pick me up later,¡± Yin Xun said truthfully.


    ¡°Since you don¡¯t have a car, why don¡¯t you take mine? It¡¯s getting late. The earlier you go back, the earlier you can rest,¡± Fang Yao suggested.


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s suggestion, Yin Xun immediately agreed. ¡°Sure! I want to go back as soon as possible.¡±


    The two of them left together. On the way back, Yin Xun received a call from Yu Tu.


    ¡°President Yin, your guess is right. That person called Bai Bing is indeed problematic. He actually tried to tamper with the finances. I followed your request and just watched him, but I did not stop him from doing it,¡± Yu Tu reported to Yin Xun.


    On the day of the interview, Yin Xun noticed that there was something wrong with this person. How could he know so much about the workplace without having a job since graduating?


    Later on, Yin Xun sent someone to investigate Bai Bing and found out that he had interacted with Si Fan. This confirmed her thoughts.


    Si Fan used the interview opportunity to send him to her side. It seemed like he was very confident in Bai Bing¡¯s ability.


    Now that Bai Bing had started to attack, it meant that her chance was coming soon.


    ¡°Don¡¯t alert him yet. Keep an eye on him. Report to me immediately if anything happens. I¡¯ll let you handle it first,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    Yu Tu replied, ¡°Yes!¡±


    Yin Xun said a few more words to Yu Tu before hanging up. She looked up and saw Fang Yao looking at her with a faint smile.


    ¡°Well, I didn¡¯t expect to find a spy from Si Fan trying to cause trouble for the company. Luckily, our people found out.¡± Yin Xun immediately felt a little awkward, afraid that Fang Yao would misunderstand that she was deliberately harming people.


    Unexpectedly, Fang Yao only smiled and said, ¡°Smart and perceptive. Not bad, not bad. You¡¯re a very reassuring business partner.¡±


    It turned out that Fang Yao did not think too much about it. Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief. What she was most afraid of now was leaving a bad impression on Fang Yao.


    The two of them lived not too far from the hotel, so they arrived soon. The car slowly stopped.


    ¡°Thank you for today.¡± Yin Xun thanked Fang Yao and prepared to get out of the car.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had already opened the car door and was about to get out, Fang Yao stopped her. ¡°The butler has prepared supper. Do you want to come and eat?¡±

 Chapter 151 - 151 Caught the Spy

    151 Caught the Spy


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun looked at the time. It was very late and it did not seem appropriate to always go to Fang Yao¡¯s house to freeload. She was almost a regular customer of Fang Yao¡¯s house by now.


    ¡°Tonight we¡¯re having a barbecue. The Guan family has already prepared it in the backyard. They¡¯re roasting the food now. You can eat it directly when you go. It¡¯s all fresh meat. The kind that¡¯s fat and sizzling with oil¡­¡± Fang Yao continued to tempt her.


    Yin Xun had only been focused on discussing the collaboration that night and had not eaten much. She had only taken a few sips of red wine. When she heard Fang Yao¡¯s words, she immediately felt hungry.


    She swallowed her saliva. Seriously, she could not reject Fang Yao at all.


    !!


    ¡®Forget it, I¡¯ll take a meal off him again. I¡¯ll think about repayment later.¡¯


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll accept your offer! It just so happens that I¡¯m hungry now. I should really eat something so that I won¡¯t feel uncomfortable in the middle of the night.¡± Yin Xun pushed open the car door and got out of the car. She walked to the backyard with Fang Yao.


    Yin Xun had a good meal at Fang Yao¡¯s house, then went back to sleep. Early the next morning, she got up and went to Donggang City.


    Yu Tu had already arrived and was waiting for her in the office. Other than the two of them and the security guard, the others had yet to go to work.


    ¡°President Yin, just leave the matter of dealing with Bai Bing to me. You do not need to come over personally. He is just a child. It is easy to deal with him.¡± Yu Tu saw Yin Xun coming over personally and quickly reported to her.


    Yin Xun shook her head and said, ¡°I still have a use for him. Has the evidence of what he did been collected?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s all done. As long as we send him to the police station, we can put him in jail for a few years,¡± Yu Tu said fiercely.


    Fortunately, Yin Xun had spotted Bai Bing long ago. Otherwise, if she had treated him as an ordinary job applicant and allowed him to cause trouble in the company, something major would happen in the future.


    Other than Yin Xun, Yu Tu was the person in charge of Donggang City. If anything happened here, he would be the first to bear the responsibility.


    Because this matter concerned his career, Yu Tu was especially angry.


    Yin Xun shook her head and said, ¡°I don¡¯t want to send him to prison, but I have other plans. Don¡¯t expose our motives. Everything will be fine as long as things proceed normally. Don¡¯t let him find out that something is amiss.¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡± Yu Tu agreed.


    Yin Xun was reading documents in her office. As the working hours approached, the staff members came one after another. Not long after, Bai Bing came over like everyone else.


    Yu Tu told Yin Xun that Bai Bing was here. Yin Xun asked him to bring Bai Bing to her office and asked the bodyguards to wait outside.


    ¡°President Yin, why are you looking for me?¡± After bringing Bai Bing over, Yu Tu left.


    ¡°I heard from Director Yu that your work results are very good. You¡¯re completely different from those people who just mess around. You have to take a few glances at everything. Since you¡¯re so hardworking, is there anything with our work you are not satisfied with? You can bring it up. I¡¯ll see what needs to be improved.¡± Yin Xun asked calmly.


    As expected, Bai Bing let down his guard. He smiled and said, ¡°You will only suffer if you view your job as a chore. You have to treat work as a hobby. If you do it for a day and love it for a day, things will be much easier. President Yin, I am content with what I am doing.¡±


    ¡°This is indeed what you should be doing, including making fake accounts and stealing the company¡¯s confidential documents. I¡¯m very curious. What did your previous boss offer you that made you willing to take the risk of committing a crime?¡± Yin Xun said coldly.


    ¡°What crime? President Yin, what do you mean by this?¡± Bai Bing¡¯s eyes immediately widened, and he had a look of disbelief on his face.


    Ever since he came, everything he did was done discreetly. Moreover, Si Fan made his resume very clean. It should not be so easy for others to find out about his true background.


    He felt that Yin Xun was bluffing, so although he was a little nervous, he still maintained his composure.


    Yin Xun looked at Bai Bing and sneered. ¡°You don¡¯t have to disguise yourself as a little white flower. What you¡¯ve done has already been exposed, so there¡¯s no need to hide it anymore. Of course, if you think I¡¯m bluffing, I don¡¯t mind calling the police and letting them deal with it. But once you hand it over to the police, your life will be ruined.¡±


    Although Yin Xun seemed to know everything, Bai Bing thought about it again and was sure that he had been very careful. It was impossible for Yin Xun to notice.

 Chapter 152 - 152 Rescuing Chen Meng

    152 Rescuing Chen Meng


    Now, only Yin Xun and Bai Bing were left in the office. Bai Bing looked out of the window. He wanted to leave to report to Si Fan, but the bodyguard was at the door at that moment. He could not leave at all. Therefore, although he was anxious, he tried his best to remain calm.


    Yin Xun looked at Bai Bing¡¯s flustered expression and revealed a gentle smile. She slowly said, ¡°I didn¡¯t call you over to question you. I just want to discuss a deal with you. As long as you agree, we can be partners. If you can help me, I can let you off.¡±


    ¡°Oh, so CEO Yin has something to ask of me. You could have told me earlier. Why did you have to make such a big fuss?¡± When Bai Bing heard that Yin Xun had a favor to ask of him, he was no longer nervous.


    As long as he was useful, he would never have to worry about anything happening to him. As long as they negotiated, he would be able to obtain the greatest benefits for himself.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°If we don¡¯t make such a big scene, how can we let Si Fan know that you¡¯ve already betrayed him?¡±


    ¡°What do you mean by that?¡± Bai Bing pretended to be puzzled as he said, ¡°Who is Si Fan? I have never heard of this person before. President Yin, if you have something to tell me, you can just say it. But don¡¯t mention someone that I don¡¯t know about. You are making it very difficult for me to continue.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ll understand when you see these documents.¡± Yin Xun handed a stack of documents to Bai Bing.


    Bai Bing took them, and after taking a few glances, his expression changed. He was shocked as he lifted his head up to look at Yin Xun. He asked in disbelief, ¡°P-President Yin, you are¡­¡±


    ¡°Are you illiterate or something? Do you need me to read it out for you in detail?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s voice suddenly turned cold.


    What Yin Xun showed Bai Bing was evidence of the communication between Bai Bing and Si Fan.


    Last night, before she went to bed, she asked Mi Jin to track down Bai Bing¡¯s communication records. Although this was illegal, in order to save Chen Meng, Mi Jin still chose to do this.


    After finding the evidence, Yin Xun printed them out.


    ¡°This, these¡­¡± Bai Bing looked at the evidence in his hand. He wanted to argue but did not know what to say.


    He thought that he had done it flawlessly, but how did Yin Xun discover it?


    ¡°You have two choices now. The first is to go to jail. Then, your life will be wasted. You know that for an accountant, making fake accounts is equivalent to being abandoned by the entire industry. The second choice is to be my bargaining chip in the deal with Si Fan. You should know Si Fan. He¡¯s extremely selfish. If he feels that you¡¯re useless, he¡¯ll discard you,¡± Yin Xun said slowly as she looked at Bai Bing.


    ¡°Then what do you want me to do?¡± Bai Bing asked. This was already a disguised acknowledgment of Yin Xun¡¯s accusation.


    ¡°Tell me everything you know about Si Fan, but don¡¯t let Si Fan know about this. Let him think that you still have a trump card.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s intention was obvious. She wanted to negotiate with Si Fan and let Bai Bing be the bargaining chip. If Si Fan refused, she would make Bai Bing tell her everything.


    Seeing that Bai Bing was still a little hesitant, Yin Xun continued to persuade him, ¡°Young man, are you gambling your future on Si Fan¡¯s development? Do you think that if Si Fan succeeds in the future, he will cherish you? Don¡¯t you know what kind of person he is? No matter what you help him with, as long as you are no longer useful to him, he will kick you away.¡±


    ¡°Why should I believe you?¡± Bai Bing still did not believe Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    Yin Xun did not continue to explain. Sometimes, words are not enough to convince a person. You should just let the other person see the futility for himself.


    Yin Xun found Si Fan¡¯s phone number and dialed it.


    ¡°Hello?¡± The call was picked up very quickly. From the sound of it, Si Fan seemed to be still half-asleep.


    ¡°Si Fan, our relationship is already like this. There¡¯s no need to keep us in suspense. If there¡¯s something to say, I¡¯ll just say it. I know you sent someone to capture Chen Meng. I¡¯ll negotiate with you. You let Chen Meng go, and I¡¯ll let Bai Bing go. How about that?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s voice was neither fast nor slow.


    ¡°What did you say?¡± Si Fan immediately sobered up and asked in a deep voice, ¡°What do you know about Chen Meng? As far as I know, you have nothing to do with Chen Meng, right?¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°We trade answers. Tell me where Chen Meng is, and I¡¯ll tell you our relationship.¡±

 Chapter 153 - 153 Instigating Rebellion

    153 Instigating Rebellion


    ¡°Yin Xun, do you think I¡¯m stupid? I still remember the last time you called me and recorded it. Do you think I would say anything over the phone?¡± Si Fan¡¯s tone was impatient. After that, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate and added, ¡°I don¡¯t know this Chen Meng, so don¡¯t come looking for me.¡±


    Just as Si Fan was about to hang up, Yin Xun hurriedly said, ¡°Don¡¯t be in a hurry to hang up. I didn¡¯t say that you definitely know. However, I have good news to share with you. An employee called Bai Bing was caught having fake accounts. I found out something interesting. The person who has been in contact with him is also a man called Si Fan. Do you think this is the same name or is it you?¡±


    ¡°What are you trying to say?¡± Si Fan finally became serious.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ve said everything I want to say. As for whether you want to release him or not, I¡¯ll only give you one day. If you want to play any tricks, don¡¯t blame me for what happens. See you at the police station. Oh, right¡­¡±


    !!


    Yin Xun looked back at Bai Bing and continued, ¡°The nature of a commercial crime is not something that can just lead to detainment for a few days. This kind of crime is enough to make you go to jail for a few years. When you come out, you¡¯ll be derailed from society.¡±


    Si Fan had the halo of the male lead, so Yin Xun knew that no matter what mistake he made, there would be a perfect solution for him in the end. However, although Si Fan had the halo, he himself did not know it. She could use this to threaten him. No matter what, saving Chen Meng was the most important thing.


    She could not find someone to forcefully save him, or it would be considered provoking trouble. It was fine for the male lead to do illegal things, but she did not have the halo of a female lead. If she did illegal things, she would definitely be finished.


    Yin Xun¡¯s threat worked. This time, Si Fan did not reject her directly. Instead, he really thought about it.


    However, in the end, Si Fan still chose not to believe her. He said coldly, ¡°Yin Xun, don¡¯t think that I¡¯m not aware of your tricks. I¡¯ll never let you trick me. I don¡¯t know who this Bai Bing is. Don¡¯t call me if you have nothing more to say. I¡¯m very busy.¡±


    Unable to get through to Si Fan, Yin Xun glanced at Bai Bing. Bai Bing clearly wanted to struggle again, but Yin Xun shook the documents in her hand, indicating that if he was disobedient, she would send him to the police. Bai Bing had no choice but to say slowly, ¡°CEO Si, I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯ve been discovered.¡±


    Si Fan, ¡°¡­¡±


    Although Bai Bing had been exposed, Si Fan still decided to continue pretending.


    ¡°Who are you? I don¡¯t know you. Who knows if you¡¯re the person Yin Xun is looking for?¡± Si Fan said coldly.


    Bai Bing felt aggrieved as he said, ¡°Boss, if you don¡¯t help me, then I will really be sent to prison by President Yin!¡±


    Before this, he had not thought too much about it. However, after Yin Xun analyzed the consequences of going to prison with him, he was afraid. He still wanted to develop his career in the future. He did not want his prospects to be cut off just like that.


    However, Si Fan clearly did not want to care about him. Even when Bai Bing told him everything, he still refused to admit that he knew Bai Bing.


    ¡°What do your problems have to do with me?¡± With that, Si Fan hung up.


    Yin Xun listened to the disconnection on the phone and smiled at Bai Bing. ¡°Do you see Si Fan¡¯s character? He¡¯s already treated you like this. Are you still going to protect him?¡±


    Bai Bing¡¯s face was ashen, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.


    Of course, it was very bad. He had listened to Si Fan¡¯s plans before coming over as a spy. Before coming, Si Fan had said that, under the premise of ensuring his safety, Bai Bing would tell Si Fan everything that happened in Donggang City. Then, if possible, he would make a fake account. After that, he would tell Si Fan when there is an update, and Si Fan would send someone over to confirm it.


    Si Fan also said that as long as he could find a way to get rid of Yin Xun, the Donggang City project would return to Si Fan¡¯s hands. At that time, he would be promoted to manager.


    This plan sounded great, but alas it had failed.


    After Bai Bing thought it through, he finally agreed to Yin Xun¡¯s request. ¡°President Yin, as long as I tell you everything that I know, you will not send me to prison?¡±


    ¡°Of course.¡± Yin Xun smiled and nodded.


    Bai Bing took a deep breath and began to explain to Yin Xun in a low voice.


    After listening to Bai Bing¡¯s revelation, Yin Xun felt that it was better to ask Fang Yao for help this time.


    Yin Xun promised that as long as Bai Bing was obedient, she would not attack him. Now that all the evidence was in Yin Xun¡¯s hands, she was not afraid of what Bai Bing would do.


    However, before looking for Fang Yao, Yin Xun thought about how she went to Fang Yao¡¯s place almost every day to freeload and always asked him for help. As the saying goes, relationships must last long. Yin Xun decided to pick a gift for Fang Yao first before asking him for help.

 Chapter 154 - 154 Choosing A Present For A Man

    154 Choosing A Present For A Man


    Yin Xun drove to the mall. She stood at the entrance and looked at all kinds of big-name clothing stores, shoe stores, and other shops. She was dazzled. Choosing a gift was a very technical job. She had to choose something that suited Fang Yao¡¯s taste and it had to look stylish. It could not be too degrading.


    Yin Xun hesitated for a long time. In the end, she really did not know what to choose. She entered the shop and planned to ask the salesperson.


    ¡°Hi there, if you want to give a gift to a male friend, what is most suitable?¡± Yin Xun looked back from the counter. The shop she entered was a branded store. It was very big and sold clothes, watches, and shoes. It was obviously expensive.


    The shop assistant looked at Yin Xun and flashed a knowing expression. She smiled and said, ¡°You can get him a watch. It can showcase your sense of taste. Coincidentally, a few new products have just been released in our shop this morning. Take a look. You should like them.¡±


    !!


    The shop assistant enthusiastically brought Yin Xun to the watch counter and took out a simple and elegant watch.


    The watch looked and felt very genuine. Even if Yin Xun did not know much about watches, she knew that this watch was definitely not cheap.


    ¡°How much is this?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Although she was rich now and the price was not a problem, she could not just buy anything she saw. Gifts did not just depend on the price, they also depended on the intention. This kind of watch was basically only sold for one brand. As for the practicality, it was about the same as any other. Moreover, Fang Yao was not someone who lacked watches. Even if she gave it to him, he might not use it.


    ¡°This watch was just released this morning. The price is only 300,000 yuan. Miss, your temperament is extraordinary. I can tell that you¡¯re from a rich family. You definitely won¡¯t care about such a small amount of money. If you think this watch is too cheap, I have a few more expensive ones. Do you want to take a look?¡±


    Hearing the price, Yin Xun could not help but gasp. 300000 was not expensive enough?


    In fact, her budget today was only 60,000 yuan, because she thought that 60,000 yuan would be enough to buy a lot of things. To her surprise, Yin Xun immediately realized that she was no longer in the previous world. She was now in the book world, and she was a rich child.


    In the past, this watch would be very expensive to her and she would not even dare to look at it. Now, however, as long as she wanted to, it was very easy to buy it.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was hesitating, the shop assistant said, ¡°It seems that this watch should have been yours ages ago. This watch is a hit and is mostly sold out. This is the last piece. If this one gets sold, you won¡¯t have a chance to buy it again.¡±


    Yin Xun knew that this was just the shop assistant¡¯s words. As long as she wanted it, she would definitely be able to find a second piece.


    In fact, this watch was indeed not bad, but the price was a little too expensive for her. This was not important though. At most, she would grit her teeth and buy it. The main thing was that after she bought it, Fang Yao might not use it.


    She had noticed Fang Yao¡¯s watch before. It was obviously worth more than a million yuan. With his status, how could he wear a watch like this one? So it was useless even if she bought it.


    ¡°This watch¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll take this watch.¡±


    Yin Xun was about to refuse when a familiar voice suddenly interrupted her from behind. Yin Xun turned around and saw that it was Liu Ying.


    Previously, Liu Ying had made a mistake. Because the Liu family was sincere and had given the Yin family many benefits in the business world, Yin Xun did not pursue the matter. Later on, when she found out that the Liu family had used their connections to free Liu Ying, she did not say anything about it.


    It seemed that her time in prison had not affected Liu Ying much. She seemed to be in good condition and walked confidently.


    ¡°It¡¯s good to have connections in the family, isn¡¯t it? You actually released so quickly,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Liu Ying walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and deliberately bumped into her. Then, she turned around and raised her hand to cover her mouth exaggeratedly. She said in surprise, ¡°Oh dear, I was wondering who was so blind to actually be standing in the middle of the road. They say that a good dog doesn¡¯t block the way. Why am I being blocked? It¡¯s the eldest daughter of the Yin family, Yin Xun. I¡¯m so sorry. Your clothes are too ordinary. I didn¡¯t even recognize you.¡±


    Liu Ying raised her chin, looking extremely arrogant.


    Yin Xun did not care about Liu Ying¡¯s attitude. She smiled faintly and said, ¡°I thought you would learn to be more obedient in prison. I didn¡¯t expect you to be so vicious. You have to watch yourself in the future. Otherwise, you might be sent to prison again.¡±

 Chapter 155 - 155 Out Of Prison

    155 Out Of Prison


    ¡°How dare you mention this!¡± Liu Ying approached Yin Xun and snarled, ¡°It¡¯s all because of you that Fan and I were separated for so long, and Yin Mo took the opportunity to get together with him. Pfft, no, who do you think is going to jail? You¡¯re the one who¡¯s going to jail. Your entire family is going to jail!¡±


    ¡°Yin Xun, I¡¯ve been observing you from behind for a long time. You actually came over to buy a gift for a man. Don¡¯t think that I don¡¯t know your motive. Let me tell you. Now that I¡¯m out, you can save your effort. Si Fan is mine. Whether it¡¯s you or your stupid sister, you¡¯re not my match.¡± Liu Ying looked very proud.


    Yin Xun raised his eyebrows. ¡°Oh? Why don¡¯t you tell me what I¡¯m thinking?¡±


    ¡°Ever since you returned to the country, you¡¯ve been attracting Si Fan¡¯s attention. Do you think I don¡¯t know your motives? You¡¯ve already met your superior, so you want to pursue him, right?!¡± Liu Ying said confidently. ¡°I might as well tell you that Si Fan said that he would only have eyes for me. He¡¯s only nice to you because he wants to use you. Don¡¯t waste your effort.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Why were these people who liked Si Fan so crazy? Could it be that they were infected by Yin Mo?


    She had a rich and handsome man like Fang Yao by her side. Why would she pursue Si Fan? Was her taste that bad? This was a problem. She could not let others think that way. It would affect her too badly.


    Yin Xun decided that she would find a way to tell all the women who liked Si Fan in the future. In her eyes, Si Fan was trash and could not be considered a real man.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was silent, Liu Ying thought that she had hit the nail on the head. She snorted and said to the shop assistant, ¡°Pack this watch for me.¡±


    The shop assistant was in a difficult position. ¡°But it was this lady who wanted to see it first.¡±


    Yin Xun refused in her heart. No, no, no. She quickly made way for Liu Ying. She did not want to buy the watch at all.


    However, she knew that she could not make it so obvious. Otherwise, Liu Ying would definitely not buy it. If Liu Ying did not buy it, she would have to buy it in the end.


    ¡°You¡¯re right. I heard Si Fan likes this kind of watch, so I want to buy one. You go to the back and queue up. I chose this first,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. Then, she pretended to ask the shop assistant to pack it for her.


    ¡°Hey, hey, hey, don¡¯t snatch it from me. Besides, do you have money? This watch costs more than 300,000 yuan.¡± Liu Ying stopped Yin Xun from walking forward.


    Yin Xun glanced at Liu Ying and said disdainfully, ¡°If I don¡¯t have money, then you don¡¯t have money either. How long has it been since you last worked? Do you have the money to buy it?¡±


    ¡°Who said I don¡¯t have money? My father transfers money to me every month. Girls should shop and put on makeup beautifully. Who is as savage as you? Come, swipe the card!¡± After Liu Ying finished speaking, she took out a bank card from her bag and threw it on the counter with a bang.


    Yin Xun gave the shop assistant a look and nodded, indicating that she could do it. Hence, the shop assistant took the card, swiped the money, and packed the watch.


    ¡°Reform yourself in the future. Don¡¯t break the law again. This watch is not bad. It suits you and Si Fan. Good luck.¡± Yin Xun saw Liu Ying put the watch away and praised her perfunctorily. Then, she turned around and left.


    Liu Ying, ¡°¡­¡±


    She was not sure if she was imagining it, but she felt that she had been tricked by Yin Xun.


    After Yin Xun left, she still did not know what to give Fang Yao, so she walked around the mall.


    She went to the men¡¯s section and saw a tie, a belt, and so on. These were too intimate, so they were still not suitable. It was too difficult to give gifts, especially to someone of Fang Yao¡¯s status.


    Suddenly, Yin Xun saw something, and her eyes lit up.


    Was this the gift she wanted? It was big, imposing, and practical. This was it!


    After buying the gifts, Yin Xun returned to the villa in the suburbs and went straight to Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    The butler did not expect Yin Xun to come over during the day. The moment he saw Yin Xun, he froze for a moment. He immediately smiled and invited Yin Xun into the house. ¡°So it is Miss Yin. Are you not at work today?¡±


    ¡°I just came back. I need Fang Yao¡¯s help with something.¡±


    Yin Xun followed the butler inside. Before she came, she had already contacted Fang Yao. It just so happened that Fang Yao was resting at home today. When Yin Xun walked into the house, she suddenly turned around and said to the butler, ¡°Oh, right. I also have a gift for your young master.¡±

 Chapter 156 - 156 The Gift Has Arrived

    156 The Gift Has Arrived


    ¡°Miss Yin is really considerate. Our Young Master will definitely be very happy when he finds out!¡± The butler laughed as he nodded.


    Coincidentally, Fang Yao came down from upstairs. He saw Yin Xun and heard the butler¡¯s words. He raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡°Oh, why am I very happy?¡±


    The butler proudly said, ¡°Because Miss Yin prepared a gift for you. Are you very curious about what the gift will be? I am very curious. Miss Yin, can we take a look later?¡±


    ¡°Of course.¡± Yin Xun smiled mysteriously. ¡°The gift I prepared is big and impressive. You can all see it when it¡¯s brought in later.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s description and thinking about the gift Yin Xun had given him when they first met, Fang Yao suddenly had a bad feeling.


    The butler chimed in and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s obvious that Miss Yin spent a lot of effort choosing a gift. Miss Yin and our Young Master¡¯s relationship is really good. Oh right, Young Master¡­¡± The butler looked at Fang Yao and asked, ¡°Shouldn¡¯t you find an opportunity to give Miss Yin a gift as well?¡±


    As the butler spoke, he winked at Fang Yao. Fang Yao felt helpless and pretended not to see it. He knew very well what the butler¡¯s motive was. The butler liked Yin Xun very much and wanted him to pursue Yin Xun so that she could become the young mistress of the Yin family.


    This kind of thing could not be rushed. Regardless of whether he had the intention or not, he had to take it step by step. Otherwise, if he scared Yin Xun away, that would be an undesirable outcome.


    ¡°However, because the gift I bought is too big, it hasn¡¯t been delivered yet. Other than the gift, I actually have another matter to talk about.¡± Yin Xun took out a few documents from her bag and handed them to Fang Yao. ¡°Can you help me deliver a letter to someone? I don¡¯t know that person, so if I say it, it¡¯ll easily arouse suspicion.¡±


    ¡°You guys can talk about business. I will go prepare lunch. Miss Yin, is there anything you want to eat?¡± The butler was very perceptive. He knew that Yin Xun wanted to discuss business with Fang Yao, so he took the initiative to leave.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, I¡¯m fine with anything. I¡¯m not picky.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    Yin Xun knew that even if she told him what he wanted to eat, the butler would not actually follow that. Instead, he would just prepare a large table of all types of food.


    Seeing that the butler had left, Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and said, ¡°Mi Jin¡¯s friend, Chen Meng, was arrested by Si Fan¡¯s subordinate. Although his subordinate is ruthless, he has a weakness, which is that he¡¯s afraid of his wife. His wife doesn¡¯t let him do bad things and has always thought that he¡¯s doing a proper job, but in fact, he¡¯s helping Si Fan with fighting.¡±


    ¡°So, you¡¯re hoping that I can help you send a message to his wife so that she can make a scene and then save Chen Meng?¡± Fang Yao said, following Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    Yin Xun snapped her fingers and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s so easy to talk to smart people.¡±


    Fang Yao frowned slightly and said, ¡°However, if we really do as you say, aren¡¯t you afraid that Si Fan will silence us? Although this is a lawful society, you must believe that Si Fan has the ability.¡±


    Although Fang Yao had the resources to help Yin Xun solve these problems and would gladly help, in order to make Yin Xun think more thoroughly, he still mentioned all the things that they needed to pay attention to.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°That won¡¯t happen. Si Fan¡¯s motive for capturing Chen Meng isn¡¯t to kill or torture him. He just wants to control Mi Jin. Right now, Si Fan doesn¡¯t know that Mi Jin is working with me. He only thinks that there¡¯s something between me and Chen Meng. Even if he finds out in the future that I¡¯ve already rescued Chen Meng, I don¡¯t have to care about him anymore.¡±


    ¡°That makes sense.¡± Fang Yao nodded and agreed to Yin Xun¡¯s request.


    The two of them discussed the details again. Just as they were done, Yin Xun¡¯s phone rang. She picked it up and realized that the gift for Fang Yao had been delivered.


    ¡°The gift is here!¡± Yin Xun said excitedly to Fang Yao and ran out.


    The butler had been supervising the chef at the entrance of the dining room. When he heard Yin Xun say that the gift had arrived, he followed curiously. They all walked to the entrance of the villa and saw the huge box containing the gift.


    Given this size, it felt like it would take four people to lift it.


    The butler called four helpers to come out and carry the box inside. Seeing that even the helpers had to use so much effort, the butler grinned and said, ¡°Miss Yin, you have really spent a lot of money this time. For such a big gift, you must have spent a lot of money, right?¡±


    Yin Xun waved her hands airily. ¡°No, no. It was not expensive at all. It just looks big!¡±

 Chapter 157 - 157 Big And Practical

    157 Big And Practical


    Not only was it inexpensive, but the money from that watch could have bought several of these gifts. However, it seemed that her choice was right. This gift was big and impressive enough. When it was delivered, it immediately attracted everyone¡¯s attention.


    Fang Yao, who was standing at the side, was also curious about what was in the box. After the servants moved the box to the courtyard, Yin Xun asked them to put it down.


    ¡°This thing is a little big. It doesn¡¯t seem easy to move it into the house like this. Let¡¯s open it here.¡±


    The butler asked the servants to carefully open the box. Everyone¡¯s faces were filled with anticipation, but when they saw the contents of the box, everyone, including the butler, fell silent.


    ¡°Miss Yin, is this the gift that you want to give to Young Master?¡± The corners of the butler¡¯s lips twitched as he asked with an unnatural expression.


    Did girls usually give people presents or beds? Yin Xun had actually bought a super large double bed for Fang Yao!


    When Fang Yao saw this, he lowered his head in silence, as if he had already guessed it.


    ¡°Actually, it¡¯s really big¡­¡± The butler wanted to praise this gift, but he really did not know what else to say.


    He did not expect Fang Yao to be unsatisfied with such a cost-effective gift.


    Yin Xun was a little embarrassed at this moment. She thought for a moment and explained, ¡°Actually, this isn¡¯t an ordinary bed, but a massage bed. Look, the biggest problem for people like us who sit in the office all day long is not being able to exercise. Our blood can¡¯t flow well, and if it¡¯s serious, it will develop into a spinal disease. With this massage bed, we don¡¯t have to worry about these problems.¡±


    ¡°In the future, as long as you feel tired and uncomfortable, turn on the massage function. If you don¡¯t want to use massage mode, it¡¯s fine too. Just turn it off. This can be an ordinary bed. There¡¯s a promotion for it too recently. The second one is half-price, so I bought one too. I won¡¯t be afraid of exhaustion in the future¡­¡±


    Initially, Fang Yao was not interested. After hearing Yin Xun say that she had also bought one for herself, his expression changed slightly and he was instantly interested. Since Yin Xun also had one, did that mean that they owned a couple¡¯s bed?


    Yin Xun continued, ¡°The last time I went to your house, I peeked inside when I passed by your bedroom. Your bedroom was big enough to fit such a bed, so I thought of getting this.¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin is indeed a meticulous person. She even noticed this. Young Master, this gift is good. It is economical and practical¡­¡± The butler went over to Fang Yao¡¯s side and softly said, ¡°Especially since Miss Yin also has one. Both of you use the same bed. This is such a good opportunity!¡±


    A faint smile appeared on Fang Yao¡¯s lips. Before the butler could say anything else, he interrupted him. ¡°Move it into the room.¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± The butler laughed as he turned his head around and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, you are so considerate. It seems like our Young Master really likes it.¡±


    When the helpers were moving the bed, the butler invited Yin Xun to the dining room for a meal. ¡°Miss Yin, the food is ready. Let¡¯s go eat first.¡±


    ¡°Alright, thank you, Uncle Butler!¡± This time, Yin Xun did not stand on ceremony.


    The butler could guess her favorite food every time. After sending gifts and finishing their business, Yin Xun bade farewell to Fang Yao and left after eating and drinking her fill.


    Just as she walked out of the courtyard, Yin Xun received a call from Yin Cheng. From Yin Cheng¡¯s tone, it seemed that he was very troubled.


    ¡°Dad, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Xun, I know that you and your sister have a grudge, so I think it¡¯s better to ask for your opinion on something first.¡± Yin Cheng sighed and said, ¡°Your sister recommended her friend to our company. She said that her friend could do any job and I should just arrange one for her. At that time, your sister cried and begged me. I couldn¡¯t persuade her, so I could only agree.¡±


    ¡°I thought you were looking for a worker a while ago. Do you want to arrange a position for her? Of course¡­¡± Yin Cheng was afraid that Yin Xun would be in a difficult position, so he added, ¡°If you don¡¯t want to bother yourself with this, just tell me. Or if you feel that she¡¯s not suitable, just tell me. Daddy will think of a way to make the arrangements.¡±


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°Dad, our family¡¯s company is so big. Isn¡¯t it easy for you to arrange a job for someone?¡±


    ¡°Sigh, Lil Mo is a love-struck fool. Other than Si Fan, there¡¯s no one else in her mind. I¡¯m just afraid that Si Fan will make her arrange these things. Of course, it¡¯s not a problem to assign her friend a position. I¡¯m just afraid that that person doesn¡¯t have good intentions.¡±


    Yin Xun understood. Yin Cheng was beginning to doubt Si Fan¡¯s character, so he was suspicious of people related to him.

 Chapter 158 - 158 Yin Mo’s Best Friend

    158 Yin Mo¡¯s Best Friend


    It was good that Yin Cheng was so vigilant, but why did he want to push this stranger to her?


    Yin Xun was a little helpless. She sighed and said, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t be anxious. Send me her information. I¡¯ll take a look first before deciding if I should help her.¡±


    ¡°Okay, wait for me.¡± Yin Cheng hung up the phone after saying that. He quickly sent the person¡¯s resume over. To check the resume, Yin Xun decided to go to the company later than usual and return home to take a look.


    After receiving the resume, Yin Xun immediately looked at it on the computer. When she saw the name on it, Yin Xun was immediately surprised.


    !!


    The person was actually Dai Ning?


    This person was an important character in the original novel. She was one of Yin Mo¡¯s few true friends. Although Dai Ning also liked Si Fan, she liked him rationally and was very kind. She would never plot against others to pursue Si Fan. She was the opposite of Zhang Xin.


    Dai Ning had always treated Yin Mo as her best friend and knew that it was wrong to like her friend¡¯s boyfriend. Therefore, even if Si Fan had unintentionally flirted with her later, Dai Ning had always been unmoved and refused to take a step forward. When she found out that Yin Mo was imprisoned by Si Fan, she tried her best to save Yin Mo.


    It was a pity that such a good girl had a best friend like Yin Mo. When Yin Mo was at her worst, Dai Ning finally sneaked into Si Fan¡¯s house. Because she trusted Yin Mo too much, Dai Ning told Yin Mo the escape plan, but Yin Mo thought that Dai Ning was being narrow-minded and immediately told Si Fan the plan.


    Si Fan caught Dai Ning again in front of Yin Mo. He ruined her appearance and even dislocated the tendons in her hands, making her unable to do anything. Originally, Dai Ning was full of ambition. She wanted to become a successful businesswoman, but because she saved Yin Mo, her bright future was ruined.


    Dai Ning was definitely a fine person, but Yin Xun was not sure if she had been used by Si Fan. It would not be good if she reported to Si Fan without her knowing.


    She could keep this person around, but she could not give her an important position.


    There was another thing that Yin Xun found strange. Dai Ning was from a rich family. She came from a scholarly family and was very wealthy. Normally, she should be working at home or playing the piano after inheriting her mother¡¯s profession. Why would she come out to find work?


    Yin Xun called Yin Cheng and told him her thoughts. ¡°Dad, I think this girl can stay. If you¡¯re still worried, you can give her a casual job.¡±


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that she¡¯s Si Fan¡¯s spy?¡± Yin Cheng asked. In this aspect, he actually cared more than Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun smiled. It was good that Yin Cheng was so vigilant. At least he could avoid a lot of trouble in the future. Fortunately, Yin Cheng¡¯s personality was different from Yin Mo¡¯s. Otherwise, even if the Yin family had her, they might not be able to last long.


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve paid attention to this girl before because she has a good relationship with Yin Mo. She¡¯s not a bad person. She won¡¯t do anything to harm others. Although she doesn¡¯t have such thoughts, there might be people who will use her, so it¡¯s good to be careful,¡± Yin Xun said.


    ¡°Oh right.¡± Yin Xun suddenly thought of something and asked, ¡°Isn¡¯t the Dai family very rich? Why did she come to our company to work? If I remember correctly, her mother wants her to play the piano.¡±


    ¡°Poor child. She wanted to do business herself, but her parents were cultured people. They hated businessmen like us who scheme against each other all day long, so they didn¡¯t let her get anywhere near the business world and forced her to learn the piano. Her parents wanted to send her overseas to study, but she didn¡¯t want to, so she rejected them. Her family cut off her source of income. She didn¡¯t have money anymore, so she could only work on her own.¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s tone was regretful. He was also a father and hated parents who forced their children to do things. In his heart, girls should be happy and do what they liked. Only boys should be trained.


    After listening to Yin Cheng¡¯s explanation, Yin Xun also felt that Dai Ning was too pitiful. In the beginning, she was oppressed by his parents, but later on, she was tortured by Si Fan. In the end, she died of depression. Her life was too bitter.


    If she could, she really wanted to help this girl. However, she had to let nature take its course to help Dai Ning. If she suddenly appeared and said that she would help her, Dai Ning would definitely be shocked.


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun silently made a plan in her heart. Dai Ning was put aside for now. There were only two main things for her to do now. One was to save Chen Meng, and the other was to save the Internet company.


    The phone business partner had already been confirmed. They had agreed to sign the contract tomorrow, so she had to confirm the final plan of the app with Mi Jin later.

 Chapter 159 - 159 Preparing A Gift

    159 Preparing A Gift


    When Yin Xun arrived at the company, Mi Jin was studying how to reduce the memory usage of the app. The computer was filled with code. Yin Xun looked at it curiously and realized that she could not understand it at all, so she stopped looking.


    ¡°How¡¯s the app doing? When will it be done?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°The app¡¯s debugging will be completed by next week at the latest. However, before it¡¯s done, we should try to operate it on our phones to avoid any bugs, although I can ensure that the chances of bugs appearing are very low,¡± Mi Jin said confidently.


    ¡°Not bad. As expected of a programming genius.¡± Yin Xun nodded and was not stingy with her praise.


    !!


    Her praise came from the bottom of her heart. There was no hypocrisy in it at all.


    Mi Jin was a little embarrassed by her praise.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Mi Jin was in a dilemma. ¡°The app is an empty software now. There¡¯s nothing in it. We still have to look for investors. We have to start selling things after the app goes public. In fact, this is the most difficult part.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. I¡¯m about to talk to the merchants. I can guarantee that the merchants will settle in after the launch.¡±


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, there¡¯s nothing else to worry about. The most important thing left is to prevent Si Fan from causing trouble.¡± Mi Jin knew Si Fan¡¯s character and knew that this matter would definitely not go smoothly.


    Yin Xun nodded and told Mi Jin not to worry.


    She wanted to tell Mi Jin that she was rescuing Chen Meng, but when she thought about how Chen Meng had yet to be rescued, Yin Xun decided not to say anything. If she told him now, it would only make him more worried.


    After some thought, Yin Xun said, ¡°I¡¯ll give you a gift on the day the app is officially launched.¡±


    ¡°What gift?¡± Mi Jin asked curiously.


    Yin Xun smiled mysteriously. ¡°It won¡¯t be a surprise if I tell you. Believe me, this gift will definitely satisfy you. I¡¯m good at giving gifts. Alright, since there¡¯s nothing else, continue working. I¡¯ll leave first.¡±


    Yin Xun patted Mi Jin¡¯s shoulder and left.


    Mi Jin, ¡°¡­¡±


    Why did these words sound so strange?


    After communicating with Mi Jin, Yin Xun left the company. She had other things to do.


    The website was about to be built. There was one more very important thing she needed to do, and that was to search for business avenues.


    The most important thing for a shopping website was to have a merchant. Otherwise, how could they retain customers with an empty website? As long as there was a merchant, the users would naturally stay. With that, the friendship function would naturally be used.


    As for investors, this was simple. Before she worked with the mobile phone merchants, she had already discussed it with those merchants. Because the website¡¯s discount was large enough, it was beneficial to both the merchants and the users, so the merchants were willing to try. Before the website started, Yin Xun decided to look for a few more brands.


    She was busy for the entire afternoon. It was only when it was dark that she was done. She was exhausted and planned to go back and take a hot shower and get some sleep.


    Yin Xun had just reached home when she received a call from Yin Cheng. Hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s tone, he seemed a little depressed.


    ¡°Dad, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    ¡°Sigh, I don¡¯t know what happened between your sister and Si Fan. Ever since she came back that day, something has been wrong with her. She keeps crying and won¡¯t go out. She didn¡¯t even mention Si Fan anymore. I kept asking her what happened, but she didn¡¯t say anything. Do you know what happened between the two of them?¡± Yin Cheng sighed and asked.


    Yin Xun recalled what happened that night. Si Fan seemed to have left after answering a call. Yin Mo was by his side at that time, but Si Fan did not care about her.


    If Yin Xun was not wrong, the person who called her should be Si Xia because only Si Xia could make Si Fan leave at such a critical moment.


    As for Yin Mo, she must have discovered the improper relationship between Si Xia and Si Fan. As for how she found out, Yin Xun suddenly thought of Xing Cheng.


    Back when she was at the police station, Xing Cheng wanted to tell her about the relationship between Si Fan and Si Xia, but because she already knew, she did not listen.


    It seemed that Xing Cheng must have told Yin Mo. However, would Yin Mo, that love-obsessed person, really believe him? It was unusual that she did not look for Si Fan now.

 Chapter 160 - 160 Inviting Fang Yao

    160 Inviting Fang Yao


    ¡°She must have quarreled with Si Fan. Si Fan seems to be in a bad mood recently,¡± Yin Xun said casually.


    ¡°A fight? That¡¯s great. It¡¯s good that they¡¯re fighting. I wonder if they can break up now.¡± Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Cheng was instantly happy.


    ¡°Dad, so you¡¯re not worried about Yin Mo, but Si Fan.¡± Yin Xun smiled helplessly.


    ¡°What¡¯s there to worry about Lil Mo? Do you think I don¡¯t understand her? No matter what happens, she¡¯ll forget it in a few days. I¡¯m just afraid that she¡¯ll be hurt by Si Fan. Since she¡¯s fine, there¡¯s no need to care about her,¡± Yin Cheng said indifferently.


    Then, Yin Cheng asked, ¡°By the way, how¡¯s your online company now? Do you need Dad¡¯s help?¡±


    ¡°The company is already on the right track. The website is almost ready. We¡¯re just short of the testing. As long as the test passes, we can officially start operating. The merchants have already discussed it. There¡¯s nothing we need help with at the moment,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Yin Cheng sighed and said, ¡°When your mother gave birth to you, did she pass on her IQ to you? Is that why your sister and brother are so troublesome?¡±


    ¡°Dad, if Yin Rui hears what you¡¯re saying, he¡¯ll kick up a fuss with you again,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly.


    ¡°Let him. I still want to ask him about that. He¡¯s a young man who can¡¯t handle anything at all. Why is he letting his sister settle everything?¡± Yin Cheng said unhappily.


    Yin Xun thought about it and asked, ¡°How about letting him come to the company to train? He can come to my new company for training.¡±


    Yin Cheng refused. ¡°He¡¯s only in high school now. What can he do at such a young age? It¡¯s better to train when he¡¯s in university. I don¡¯t feel at ease letting him come to the company now.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    She knew that if she really let Yin Rui come out to train, Yin Cheng would despise him for being young and unable to do anything. However, if she did not let Yin Rui come out, Yin Cheng would think that Yin Rui did not do anything and was irresponsible.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun could not help but feel aggrieved for Yin Rui. Perhaps all parents in the world were like this.


    The two of them chatted for a while more. Yin Xun comforted Yin Cheng regarding Yin Mo¡¯s matter before hanging up.


    With a kid like Yin Mo at home, it was not only Yin Cheng who was tired. Yin Xun also felt tired.


    Not only did she have to be wary of outsiders, but she also had to be wary of her own family. Having a worthless ally was even more terrifying than having a godly opponent.


    Yin Xun walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at Fang Yao¡¯s house. The lights in Fang Yao¡¯s house were not on. He must have gone to sleep or gone out and had not returned.


    She saw that the night was beautiful and the sky was filled with stars. She decided to go to the balcony to relax.


    When she reached the balcony, Yin Xun raised her arm and was about to stretch. However, just as she raised her arm, the window opposite him opened with a bang. Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. Her arm was still stretched in the air. When she saw Fang Yao appear, she immediately felt a little awkward.


    ¡°Good evening.¡± Yin Xun quickly put down her arms. She went from stretching to touching her hair.


    How awkward. Why did Fang Yao always see her at this time?


    Fang Yao smiled faintly. He could tell that Yin Xun was uncomfortable, so he pretended not to see it and greeted her. ¡°You just came back?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. The website is about to be completed. Recently, we had to talk about merchants, so we¡¯re rather busy. Why didn¡¯t you turn on the lights today? The last time they were broken, but it should have been fixed, right?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°I¡¯m looking at the stars,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°Haha, what a coincidence. I¡¯m also out to look at the stars. The weather tonight is really good. It¡¯s a good time to relax.¡± Yin Xun took a deep breath and said, ¡°By the way, the website is about to be done. When do you think I should open the website?¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and asked.


    ¡°Such an important matter has to be announced on a suitable day. It¡¯s best if it¡¯s a day that can leave a deep impression on Si Fan.¡± Si Fan¡¯s existence would not affect her opening the website, but if she could use this opportunity to anger Si Fan, it would be a gain.


    Especially when she thought of how Si Fan would be angry but helpless, Yin Xun looked forward to it even more.


    ¡°Si Fan sent me an invitation today, inviting me to his birthday party,¡± Fang Yao said lightly.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes instantly widened. She looked at Fang Yao and asked in confusion, ¡°He doesn¡¯t know you. He didn¡¯t even greet you when we met at the clothing store last time. Why would he invite you?¡±

 Chapter 161 - 161 Getting Liu Ying to Invest

    161 Getting Liu Ying to Invest


    ¡°Actually, he came to our company a long time ago and said that he wanted to see me. I wasn¡¯t interested, so I haven¡¯t seen him since. Now, his birthday is coming up. He wants to use this opportunity to invite the heads of various companies to participate. He probably wants to use this opportunity to expand his connections,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Si Fan¡¯s behavior was similar to casting a wide net. He would take whatever fish would take the bait.


    Yin Xun nodded. No wonder she bumped into Liu Ying when she bought the watch today. She was preparing Si Fan¡¯s birthday present.


    Yin Xun had been worrying about when it would be better to make the announcement for her company. Since Si Fan¡¯s birthday was coming up, it was just nice¡­


    Yin Xun asked Fang Yao curiously, ¡°Will you be going?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not interested in such things. However, if you need me to help you gather information, I can go,¡± Fang Yao said to Yin Xun.


    ¡°If you have nothing to do, you can go and have fun. Of course, it doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t go. I know when I¡¯m going to make the announcement. We have such a good relationship with Si Fan. We definitely can¡¯t miss his birthday. On such an important day, we have to give him a big gift.¡± Yin Xun smiled until her eyes narrowed into two crescents.


    ¡°You have a good relationship with Si Fan?¡± Fang Yao frowned, his tone sour.


    ¡°That¡¯s not what I meant!¡± Yin Xun saw Fang Yao¡¯s reaction and was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and explained, ¡°When I said ¡®good relationship¡¯, I meant something else. I¡¯ve decided that I¡¯ll do something big on his birthday.¡±


    ¡°So, you want to¡­¡± Before he could finish his sentence, Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun. The meaning was clear.


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun nodded with a smile. ¡°It¡¯s easiest to leave a deep impression on him if something happens on his birthday. I¡¯ll try my best to make him remember such a good thing for the rest of his life.¡±


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, it looks like I¡¯ll have to attend this birthday banquet as well. It¡¯s better for me to watch such a good thing personally,¡± Fang Yao said. ¡°His birthday banquet is held in his clubhouse. He invited many successful people that day.¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this a huge gift for him?¡± Yin Xun and Fang Yao looked at each other and smiled.


    At this moment, Si Fan, who was accompanying Si Xia in the hospital, suddenly sneezed.


    ¡°Brother, what¡¯s wrong? Did you catch a cold from me?¡± Si Xia asked anxiously when he saw Si Fan sneeze so violently.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. Maybe I was exposed to the wind when I went out just now,¡± Si Fan said nonchalantly.


    Si Xia said with concern, ¡°Brother Si Fan, you have to take good care of yourself. Don¡¯t fall sick, or else my heart will ache.¡±


    Si Fan looked down at the time and frowned. ¡°Xiaxia, stay in the hospital for now. I have something to do. I¡¯ll come and accompany you when I¡¯m done, okay?¡±


    When Si Xia heard that Si Fan was about to leave, her smiling expression instantly darkened. She looked at Si Fan and questioned, ¡°Are you going to find that b*tch Yin Mo? No, I don¡¯t care. You have to stay here with me!¡±


    ¡°Xiaxia, be good. I really have something important to discuss.¡± Si Fan tried to persuade Si Xia.


    ¡°No, if you leave, then I won¡¯t take my injections anymore!¡± Si Xia said as she reached out to pull out the needle from the back of his hand.


    When Si Fan saw this, he hurriedly stopped Si Xia. According to Si Xia¡¯s personality, she would really not hesitate to pull it out.


    Si Fan thought of how dejected Yin Mo was before he left. Yin Mo would still be useful in the future, so he could not be too cold to her now. He needed to comfort her. However, looking at Si Xia¡¯s current state, he could not leave Si Xia alone either.


    For a moment, Si Fan felt like his head was about to explode.


    While Si Fan was thinking about what to do, his phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was Liu Ying.


    Si Fan glanced at Si Xia. ¡°I¡¯m going out to take a call.¡±


    ¡°Okay, Brother Si Fan.¡± Si Xia¡¯s tone was obedient. She noticed that something was wrong with Si Fan, but as long as Si Fan did not leave, it was fine.


    Si Fan walked out of the ward and pressed the answer button.


    ¡°Brother Si Fan, why didn¡¯t you contact me? I¡¯ve been waiting for your news.¡± Liu Ying¡¯s coquettish voice came from the phone.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t know you were released from prison,¡± Si Fan explained with a frown.


    At this moment, he was extremely impatient. Since Liu Ying had already come out of prison, it meant that she would continue to pester him in the future. Liu Ying was even more annoying than Yin Mo.


    However, he still needed Liu Ying in the future, so he could not show his impatience too clearly.


    ¡°Brother Si Fan, it¡¯s your birthday soon. I¡¯ve prepared a gift for you, but I won¡¯t tell you what it is first. I¡¯ll give it to you on your birthday. It¡¯ll definitely surprise you!¡± Liu Ying said mysteriously.

 Chapter 162 - 162 Freeloaded For Breakfast Again

    162 Freeloaded For Breakfast Again


    ¡°Sure, I¡¯m looking forward to it,¡± Si Fan replied perfunctorily. ¡°By the way, since you¡¯re fine now, do you want to make some money?¡±


    ¡°Make money? How so?¡± Liu Ying asked in confusion. ¡°Brother Si Fan, do you want to bring me along to earn money? I know you treat me the best.¡±


    The corners of Si Fan¡¯s mouth curled up slightly. This woman was indeed gullible. He did not even need to say anything nice.


    ¡°Yes, many people wanted to invest in me, but I rejected them all. If you¡¯re the one investing, I can consider it.¡±


    Liu Ying could not wait to establish a connection with Si Fan. When she heard that she could invest with him, it was simply a godsend opportunity to become partners with Si Fan.


    ¡°I¡¯ll do it. Since that¡¯s the case, we can start working together on your birthday. That would be more meaningful,¡± Liu Ying said hopefully.


    The corners of Si Fan¡¯s lips curled up slightly as he agreed immediately. ¡°Alright, up to you.¡±


    ¡°Brother Si Fan, are you done yet?¡± Si Fan had not even said more than a few words when Si Xia started to urge him to go back.


    After Si Fan hung up the phone with Liu Ying, he took a deep breath and tried his best to hide the impatience on his face before continuing to walk toward Si Xia¡¯s ward.


    The next day, Yin Xun had just woken up when the doorbell rang. Yin Xun went downstairs to open the door and realized that it was the butler.


    ¡°Miss Yin, did I wake you up?¡± The butler laughed as he asked.


    Yin Xun shook his head with a smile. ¡°No, I just woke up. Uncle Butler, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°Our young master invited you over for breakfast. He said that he had something to tell you,¡± the butler explained.


    ¡°You want me to freeload again.¡± Yin Xun was a little embarrassed. Although she had brought Fang Yao a gift last time, she had only given him one.


    Yin Xun thought that she would have to prepare a few more gifts if she wanted to freeload more often in the future.


    ¡°Miss Yin, how is this freeloading? This is just a friendly exchange between neighbors. Moreover, our Young Master is looking for you to discuss something. You don¡¯t have to feel pressured. It is just a meal. It is not a big deal. If you have nothing to do, why don¡¯t you go back and change your clothes? I will wait for you outside.¡± The butler saw that Yin Xun was a little distracted and said this to her.


    The butler was indeed a smart person. He was a master at comforting people. When Yin Xun heard this, the guilt in her heart immediately lessened. She decided to go with the butler.


    ¡°Alright, please wait for me.¡± Yin Xun went back and changed her clothes. She planned to go to the company directly after the meal.


    The butler led Yin Xun to Fang Yao¡¯s house. When Yin Xun walked into the living room, she saw Fang Yao sitting on the sofa.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go eat first. We¡¯ll talk while we eat.¡± Fang Yao smiled when he saw Yin Xun enter.


    The two of them went to the dining room to eat. Yin Xun realized that the dishes this morning were all her favorites.


    ¡°I¡¯ve already gotten someone to announce the news. I believe there will be results today, so you can rest assured,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°That¡¯s great!¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. She said happily, ¡°I didn¡¯t dare to make a move now because Chen Meng is still in Si Fan¡¯s hands. If Si Fan finds out that Mi Jin is helping me and does something to him, it will be bad. As long as we save Chen Meng, we can do anything we want.¡±


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun never avoided the butler when they were discussing these matters. In the past, it was the butler who took the initiative to leave them alone. This time, Fang Yao and Yin Xun were just having breakfast, so he did not avoid them. Hence, he heard their conversation.


    He frowned and said, ¡°Si Fan looks like a decent person, but he actually did such an illegal thing. Indeed, you can¡¯t judge a book by its cover. I always thought that he was as kind-hearted as the media reported.¡±


    ¡°Uncle Butler, you¡¯re not the only one who thinks so. He¡¯s too good at pretending. Everyone has been deceived by him.¡± Yin Xun took a bite of the bun and continued, ¡°He¡¯s done too many illegal things, but because he has connections, I can¡¯t rely on calling the police to deal with him. That won¡¯t be a threat to him. If we want to deal with him, we have to use his own methods.¡±


    Fang Yao said from the side, ¡°You have to be careful when dealing with Si Fan. He¡¯s not as simple as he looks.¡±


    ¡°Yes, I know.¡± Yin Xun agreed.


    After dinner, Yin Xun left Fang Yao¡¯s house and went to Donggang City.


    Yin Xun had evidence of Bai Bing¡¯s crimes, so Bai Bing did not dare to run away. He obediently went to work every day and did not even dare to do anything.


    He answered whatever Yin Xun asked him. It seemed like Bai Bing had followed Si Fan for a long time and knew a lot about Si Fan. He even knew that his subordinate, Chi Bo, had captured Chen Meng.

 Chapter 163 - 163 Going To Find His Wife

    163 Going To Find His Wife


    ¡°Did Si Fan actually let someone who knows so much about him be a spy? Isn¡¯t he afraid of being betrayed?¡± Yin Xun asked in confusion.


    This did not seem like Si Fan¡¯s style. Logically speaking, it would be more appropriate for him to find someone who did not know anything. This way, even if the spy was discovered, he would not be implicated.


    In Yin Xun¡¯s impression, Si Fan was still relatively smart. Why was he so stupid this time?


    Bai Bing said, ¡°It happened so suddenly that he wasn¡¯t prepared at all. He couldn¡¯t find someone as outstanding as me in such a short time. Of course, I¡¯m not bragging. I had no choice but to come.¡±


    ¡°Did you sign any agreement?¡± Yin Xun still felt that something was wrong.


    Bai Bing shook his head. ¡°He didn¡¯t make any preparations at all because before he came, he said that you¡¯re just a young lady with no work experience and that you won¡¯t notice me.¡±


    Only then did Yin Xun understand that Si Fan did not take her seriously at all. That was why he did not pay attention to the details.


    This was even better. It made things easier for her.


    After Yin Xun understood, she asked Bai Bing about Chen Meng, and Bai Bing told her everything.


    Yin Xun did not call Si Fan this time because she knew that it was useless even if she called him. Chen Meng was not in Si Fan¡¯s hands now, but in the hands of his subordinate, Chi Bo. The most important thing now was to find a way to find Chi Bo¡¯s wife. As long as his wife appeared, Chi Bo would not dare to oppose her.


    Yin Xun called Yu Tu over and asked him to find a few bodyguards. After choosing them, Yin Xun left to find Chi Bo¡¯s wife.


    Chi Bo¡¯s house was in a very high-end district in the city center. When Yin Xun brought her bodyguards over, she was a little surprised. As expected of the subordinate who did dangerous things for Si Fan. He was actually so rich that he could afford to live in a high-end district.


    Following the address, Yin Xun arrived on the 17th floor of the 7th building. There were two apartment blocks here, and Yin Xun went straight to Chi Bo¡¯s house.


    Yin Xun knocked on the door twice and someone came to open it.


    ¡°Who are you?¡± A fat woman with short hair opened the door and asked Yin Xun.


    Bai Bing said that Chi Bo¡¯s wife was a little fatty. It seemed like she was the one in front of him.


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Are you Chi Bo¡¯s wife, He Lan?¡±


    ¡°Yes, what¡¯s the matter?¡± He Lan looked very forthright and was not afraid of the bodyguards behind Yin Xun at all. She sized Yin Xun up and asked coldly.


    ¡°Do you know what work your husband is doing now?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    He Lan said coldly, ¡°What does my husband¡¯s business have to do with you? Who are you? Are you his mistress? That¡¯s impossible. He doesn¡¯t have the guts.¡±


    The corner of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth twitched. Obviously, that was impossible. How could she be with Chi Bo?


    ¡°You misunderstand. What I want to ask is whether you know what your husband does. If he did something illegal, would you let that slide?¡± Yin Xun explained.


    Upon hearing Yin Xun¡¯s question, He Lan flung open the door that was originally only slightly ajar. She said angrily, ¡°That¡¯s impossible. My husband is an executive of the company. How can he do anything illegal? If he dares to do anything illegal, I¡¯ll cripple him!¡±


    He Lan¡¯s actions were so sudden that Yin Xun was shocked. She did not expect her to have such a big reaction.


    ¡°That¡­¡± Yin Xun looked at He Lan and said, ¡°A friend of mine was captured by Chi Bo. I wanted to save him, but I couldn¡¯t call the police. Otherwise, they might kill my friend. I really had no choice, so I came to ask you for help.¡±


    ¡°My husband kidnapped someone? How is that possible? He doesn¡¯t even dare to kill a fish. I prepare all the meat in my house. That coward doesn¡¯t have the guts.¡± He Lan still did not believe it.


    Yin Xun thought that it made sense. After all, Chi Bo had been with her day and night, so she would definitely trust her husband more. How could she suspect her husband with just a few words?


    Yin Xun frowned and said, ¡°Miss He, if you don¡¯t believe me, you can come with me to take a look. I know where your husband is, but you can¡¯t call him before you go. Otherwise, you¡¯ll be exposed. It won¡¯t be good if he moves my friend away in advance.¡±


    ¡°Why should I believe you? Who knows what you¡¯ll do?¡± He Lan looked Yin Xun up and down, her face full of distrust.


    Yin Xun took out her phone and opened the photo album to find a photo. He zoomed in and showed it to He Lan. The man in the photo was Chi Bo.

 Chapter 164 - 164 He’s Flirting With A Girl

    164 He¡¯s Flirting With A Girl


    ¡°This must be Chi Bo. He¡¯s the one who captured my friend. Of course, I can¡¯t do anything if you don¡¯t believe me, but I can call the police and let them intervene. If the police get involved, the consequences won¡¯t be something I can control,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Yin Xun saw that He Lan¡¯s expression had loosened a little and continued, ¡°If you¡¯re worried that I¡¯ll harm you, you can find someone to accompany you. I won¡¯t attack you.¡±


    In order to show his sincerity, Yin Xun called the bodyguards over and introduced them. ¡°I used these bodyguards to protect myself. If you¡¯re worried about them, I can tell them to stay far away from me. This is the limit. I have to ensure my own safety, so I can¡¯t leave them behind.¡±


    ¡°Chi Bo hasn¡¯t been home for a long time. When I asked him what he was doing, he only said that he was working overtime. Alright, I¡¯ll go with you. I don¡¯t believe that you can do anything to me now that we¡¯re in a lawful society,¡± He Lan said coldly.


    ¡°Alright, don¡¯t worry, Miss He. We¡¯re not gangsters, so we won¡¯t hurt you.¡± Seeing that He Lan had agreed, Yin Xun brought her to Chi Bo¡¯s place.


    Chi Bo was very cautious. He was currently in a warehouse in the suburbs. When Yin Xun found it, she realized that there was not even a surveillance camera nearby.


    It seemed like Si Fan also knew that what he had done was illegal. He did not dare to put the surveillance camera for fear of leaving evidence.


    Yin Xun left two bodyguards in the car, just in case they called the police. The rest of them followed her quietly to the warehouse.


    ¡°Is there a need to be so careful? I¡¯ll see what he dares to do to me!¡± He Lan frowned in disdain when she saw Yin Xun¡¯s serious expression.


    Yin Xun sighed and said, ¡°He doesn¡¯t dare to do anything to you, but we can¡¯t guarantee that his accomplices won¡¯t do anything to us. It¡¯s better to be careful.¡±


    They quietly approached. Yin Xun looked into the warehouse and realized that there was only one man inside. He looked different from the person in the photo.


    Yin Xun glanced to the side, but he did not see anyone else. It seemed that Chen Meng was not there.


    At this moment, the only person in the warehouse was watching the video enthusiastically.


    ¡°He is¡­¡± Yin Xun was just about to ask He Lan if this was Chi Bo when he heard He Lan curse softly.


    ¡°Damn it, he told me that he¡¯s busy with work, so he¡¯s working overtime. He doesn¡¯t look busy at all. How dare he lie to me!¡± He Lan glared at Chi Bo fiercely, looking like she wanted to beat him up immediately.


    Yin Xun looked around. There were a total of three warehouses beside him. Chen Meng was not here. She did not know if he was in the other two warehouses.


    She asked the bodyguards to go to the other two warehouses to take a look. If they find anyone, they would wave at her. If Chi Bo was the only employee here, they would call her.


    The bodyguard received the orders and quietly walked toward the other two warehouses. Yin Xun stayed where she was and waited for their news.


    The bodyguards went to check, and they softly called out to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, there is no one inside!¡±


    Seeing that there were no other employees, Yin Xun said to He Lan, ¡°Miss He, it¡¯s up to you now. I hope you can ask your husband to let my friend go.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. If he really captured your friend, I¡¯ll definitely release him,¡± He Lan promised and walked into the warehouse.


    ¡°Chi Bo!¡± He Lan shouted before she entered, scaring Chi Bo so much that his phone slipped and fell to the ground.


    Yin Xun crossed her arms at the door and looked inside. When the bodyguard walked to her side, Yin Xun instructed the bodyguard in a low voice, ¡°Go forward and keep an eye on him. Don¡¯t let him contact anyone else.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± After the bodyguard agreed, he also walked in.


    Chi Bo did not expect his wife to suddenly appear. He was so frightened that he could not even speak properly.


    ¡°W-why are you here?¡± After saying that, Chi Bo quickly picked up his phone and tried to turn it off.


    However, He Lan was quick to react. She rushed forward and snatched the phone from Chi Bo just as he picked it up.


    ¡°What are you looking at? You look so scared,¡± He Lan said and looked at the phone.


    The chat interface on his phone was still lit. Just by looking at the profile picture, she could tell that the person on the other side must be a woman. She even called him ¡°Brother¡± in the chat history. The two of them had said many ambiguous words.


    It turned out that Chi Bo was chatting with a woman!

 Chapter 165 - 165 Being Educated By His Wife

    165 Being Educated By His Wife


    He Lan felt her temper surge. She grabbed Chi Bo¡¯s ear and snarled, ¡°You told me that there was a lot of work to do in the company, so you were working overtime. So you were hiding here to chat with a woman?! Do you want to die?!¡±


    ¡°Lan Lan, I was wrong!¡± Chi Bo hurriedly begged for mercy, but He Lan had no intention of letting him off. She raised her leg and kicked Chi Bo¡¯s butt.


    ¡°Wrong, you know that you¡¯re wrong? Tell me, what are you doing here? Why didn¡¯t you go home for no reason? Who is that woman? How long have you been together¡­¡± He Lan asked as she hit him. Chi Bo could not answer for a moment.


    When He Lan was tired, she panted and looked at Chi Bo, who had a swollen face, waiting for his answer.


    !!


    It was weird to see Chi Bo being so afraid of He Lan. He did not retaliate or complain the entire time. Other than begging for mercy, he did not do anything else.


    ¡°Let me ask you, did you kidnap anyone?¡± He Lan asked.


    Chi Bo quickly denied it. ¡°No! How could I do something illegal?¡±


    When He Lan heard him say no, she turned around and looked in the direction of the warehouse door. When Chi Bo saw her turn around, he also looked over and realized that it was Yin Xun.


    ¡°Who are you? What are you doing here?¡± When Chi Bo saw Yin Xun, his first reaction was to grab his phone and call for help.


    However, He Lan did not give him the chance. She dodged to the side and raised her leg to kick Chi Bo down again. She did not hold back at all, and Chi Bo was even sent flying for a short distance.


    ¡°The evidence is conclusive. How dare you lie!¡± He Lan scolded.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Chi Bo wanted to retort, but Yin Xun spoke up.


    She looked at Chi Bo and slowly said, ¡°Mr. Chi, I don¡¯t have any other intentions. I just want to save my friend. Your actions have already constituted a crime. I have sufficient evidence to prove your and Si Fan¡¯s crimes. As long as you let him go, not only will I not pursue your problem, but I also have a way to make Si Fan not pursue you.¡±


    ¡°Who are you? Why should I listen to you?¡± Chi Bo glared at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun shrugged and looked at He Lan. ¡°Miss He, look at him. Isn¡¯t he admitting it now?¡±


    ¡°How dare you f*cking trick me!¡± Chi Bo finally realized that he had been tricked by Yin Xun. He got up from the ground and rushed toward Yin Xun.


    He Lan did not manage to stop him in time. Fortunately, the bodyguard was right beside Yin Xun and immediately stood in front of him. When Chi Bo came over, he kicked him out mercilessly.


    ¡°You¡¯re getting bold. How dare you attack someone in front of me!¡± He Lan walked up to Chi Bo and grabbed his ear to lift him up. Chi Bo cried out in pain.


    He Lan threatened him, ¡°I¡¯ll ask you one last time. Are you going to let that person go? If not, we¡¯ll get a divorce. You¡¯ll be sentenced to a few years for kidnapping someone. I don¡¯t want to be a widow in that time!¡±


    When he heard that He Lan wanted a divorce, Chi Bo finally cowered. He hurriedly nodded. ¡°Okay, okay, I¡¯ll let him go!¡±


    He Lan released him and pointed at his nose as she scolded, ¡°You stupid man, you¡¯ve been doing this all this time. It¡¯s not safe here. I won¡¯t touch you now. But wait and see how I¡¯ll deal with you when we get home!¡±


    Yin Xun had been watching coldly from the side. If it were not for the fact that it was illegal to search someone else¡¯s place without permission, she would have asked the bodyguards to search it long ago.


    She was a law-abiding citizen and would never do anything illegal in places she did not know. If Chen Meng was not here and was somewhere else, she would be putting herself in trouble by searching the place without permission.


    Chi Bo was indeed afraid of his wife. As soon as He Lan threatened him, he immediately agreed to release the captive.


    He walked to the innermost part of the warehouse and moved a pile of things away. Only then did Yin Xun realize that there was a basement entrance here.


    Yin Xun asked two bodyguards to stand guard at the door while the remaining bodyguards followed her inside.


    Chi Bo motioned for Yin Xun and He Lan to keep quiet, then he carefully opened the door to the underground entrance.


    ¡°Who is it?¡± A deep male voice came from below. There was someone else underground!


    ¡°It¡¯s me, Brother Tian,¡± Chi Bo said. Then he said to He Lan in a low voice, ¡°The one below is in charge of watching Chen Meng. He has a gun, so we have to be careful.¡±

 Chapter 166 - 166 Taking Chen Meng Away

    166 Taking Chen Meng Away


    Chi Bo asked He Lan to wait for him outside while he went down by himself. If he wanted to save Chen Meng, he had to get rid of Brother Tian first.


    Yin Xun and He Lan waited outside. After a while, Chi Bo came out.


    ¡°Where¡¯s your accomplice?¡± He Lan looked behind Chi Bo and asked curiously when she realized that there was no one around.


    ¡°I knocked him out.¡± Chi Bo came out from below with a gun in his hand.


    !!


    After he climbed out, a few minutes later, another disheveled man crawled out from below.


    He Lan¡¯s first reaction was to think that it was Brother Tian. She went up to kick him, but Chi Bo stopped her. Chi Bo smiled ingratiatingly at He Lan and said, ¡°He¡¯s Chen Meng.¡±


    When He Lan heard this, she quickly retracted her foot. She was so close to kicking Chen Meng down.


    ¡°I¡¯ll deal with you when we get home.¡± He Lan glared at Chi Bo fiercely before turning to talk to Yin Xun. ¡°Now that you¡¯ve found your friend, what do you plan to do?¡±


    ¡°Bring him away. You guys should leave quickly too. Otherwise, when Si Fan gets the news, you guys will be in trouble,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Unexpectedly, He Lan was not afraid at all. She smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m fine. Si Fan won¡¯t dare to touch me. Just leave quickly.¡±


    ¡°You are¡­¡± Chen Meng walked up to Yin Xun with his messy hair and asked. He still did not understand what was going on.


    ¡°Let¡¯s leave this place first.¡± Yin Xun was afraid that Chen Meng would not leave with her, so she explained simply, ¡°Mr. Chen Meng, I¡¯m a friend of Mi Jin¡¯s. He asked me to save you. Let¡¯s leave this place quickly. I¡¯ll explain everything to you when we get back.¡±


    Chen Meng was sensible. Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, he followed her out.


    After saying goodbye to He Lan, Yin Xun immediately left with Chen Meng. When the car drove away, Yin Xun looked back and saw He Lan beating Chi Bo up.


    Seeing that He Lan was not worried about his safety at all, Yin Xun was suddenly curious about her identity. Who was He Lan? She was actually not afraid of Si Fan.


    Moreover, from the looks of it, Chi Bo had been abused a lot, but he did not dare to resist or get a divorce. When she returned, she would definitely investigate He Lan¡¯s identity.


    After Yin Xun brought Chen Meng back, he handed him over to Mary and asked her to bring him to clean him up. At the same time, she applied medicine to treat his injuries. Chen Meng was covered in injuries at Si Fan¡¯s place. It was obvious that he had been beaten up a lot.


    Chen Meng wanted to thank Yin Xun, but Yin Xun said that there was no hurry. In a few days, she still needed to do something, so Chen Meng agreed to help readily.


    Now that the biggest problem had been resolved, Yin Xun could rest assured and fight Si Fan.


    However, afraid that Si Fan would make things difficult for Chi Bo, Yin Xun decided to negotiate with Si Fan.


    She called Si Fan, but he rejected her call outright.


    Yin Xun wrote an email and sent it to him. The content was that she had already taken Chen Meng away and had evidence of his crime. If he continued to dwell on this matter, she would copy this evidence into two files. One would be sent to the police station, and the other would be sent to the CEO of the P-brand phone so that they could see his true colors.


    After sending the mail, Yin Xun stopped paying attention to this matter and started to deal with the new company.


    Before the website was launched, she would be very busy. There were too many things for her to handle personally. It seemed that it was time to recruit employees.


    When he received Yin Xun¡¯s email, Si Fan was in a meeting in the conference room. After the meeting, he returned to his office and opened the email.


    When he saw Yin Xun¡¯s message, he was so angry that he smashed the cup on the table to the ground.


    ¡°Yin Xun, did you come back to the country specifically to oppose me!¡± Si Fan lowered his voice and growled.


    ¡°President¡­¡± Si Fan¡¯s assistant, Cheng She, walked in. He looked at the glass shards on the ground and then at Si Fan, who had his head lowered. He wanted to say something but hesitated.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Although Si Fan was very angry at Yin Xun, he would still pay attention if his subordinate came to look for him.


    ¡°Brother Tian just called. He said that the mission failed and the responsibility is all on Chi Bo.¡± Cheng She was just a messenger because he did not know what the message actually meant.

 Chapter 167 - 167 This Is The Gift

    167 This Is The Gift


    Although he was Si Fan¡¯s assistant, he did not know everything. He was only responsible for helping Si Fan deal with the company¡¯s miscellaneous tasks.


    However, when he saw that Si Fan¡¯s expression had darkened, he could guess that another subordinate must have messed up something very important.


    ¡°I understand. You may leave.¡± Si Fan suppressed his anger.


    After Cheng She left, Si Fan picked up the phone and called Mi Gang.


    When the call went through, Si Fan asked directly, ¡°Mi Gang, I asked you to keep an eye on your brother. Where is he?¡±


    ¡°Ah, CEO Si. My brother is still in that rental house. I just went to scold him two days ago. What¡¯s the matter?¡± Mi Gang asked submissively.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. Keep an eye on him. Don¡¯t let him come out and cause any trouble for me. If there¡¯s anything, inform me immediately. Do you hear me?¡± Si Fan instructed in a deep voice.


    ¡°Yes, yes, yes. Don¡¯t worry, CEO Si. I¡¯ll definitely complete the mission!¡± Mi Gang immediately replied.


    Si Fan hung up the phone. He wanted to use Chen Meng to restrain Mi Jin. Since Mi Jin had not left the house, it did not affect him much.


    However, he was curious about one thing. What was Yin Xun¡¯s relationship with Chen Meng? Why would she save him?


    Unable to figure it out, Si Fan picked up his phone and made a call. It was to his intelligence organization.


    ¡°Investigate the relationship between Yin Xun and Chen Meng.¡± Si Fan had just given the order when he received another call from Si Xia.


    Si Fan instantly felt a headache coming on. Although he was exasperated, he still rushed over to accompany Si Xia.


    Yin Xun was not thinking about Si Fan at all. At this moment, she was busy attracting merchants to her website.


    A week passed quickly.


    Yin Xun¡¯s website had already passed the test. Now, she just had to wait for it to be officially released.


    During this period of time, Si Fan did not cause any trouble at all. Be it the new company or Donggang City, everything went extremely smoothly.


    Yin Xun knew why things had gone so smoothly. It was because Si Fan was currently being pestered by three women. Si Xia, Liu Ying, and Yin Mo. None of them were willing to submit to the other and were using all their skills to fight for Si Fan¡¯s heart.


    Si Fan had to deal with them every day and did not have the time to care about Yin Xun. Hence, he did not even find out about the relationship between Yin Xun and Chen Meng.


    During this period, Yin Xun recruited another batch of programmers and handed them over to Mi Jin.


    Yin Xun knew that the moment the website went online, Si Fan would definitely retaliate. Although it would not be a problem to hand it over to Mi Jin, what if Si Fan relied on his sheer numbers? After all, he had been running the company for so long, so he definitely had a trump card.


    When all the preparations were done, Yin Xun and Mi Jin waited.


    Mi Jin was even more excited about this than Yin Xun because he really wanted to see Si Fan suffer.


    ¡°Mi Jin, come with me after work today. Don¡¯t work overtime today.¡± When it was almost time to get off work, Yin Xun suddenly invited Mi Jin to leave with her.


    Mi Jin was a little surprised by Yin Xun¡¯s invitation. What day was it today? Yin Xun was being surprisingly generous and did not even ask him to work overtime.


    ¡°It¡¯s abnormal. It¡¯s really abnormal.¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun and shook his head.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­Why?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s abnormal that you¡¯d ask me to get off work early. Don¡¯t you usually ask me to work overtime when you leave?¡±


    After spending some time with Yin Xun, Mi Jin realized that Yin Xun was the kind of person who was very cold to outsiders but extremely tolerant of her own people, so he dared to joke with her.


    Yin Xun smacked her face. So this was her image in the eyes of the employees?


    ¡°I said I¡¯ll give you a gift after the website is built. I meant what I said. Let¡¯s go to Fang Yao¡¯s house. He prepared a barbecue today.¡± Yin Xun gestured for Mi Jin to follow her and walked out.


    Although Mi Jin was skeptical, he still left with Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun drove with Mi Jin and parked in front of Fang Yao¡¯s house. There was no one to welcome them today, so Yin Xun walked to the backyard leisurely.


    Before she reached the backyard, a strong fragrance of meat wafted toward her. Yin Xun took a deep breath. This was fragrance. It was wonderful.


    As expected, the butler and Fang Yao were roasting meat in the backyard.


    However, Mi Jin only looked at the two of them for a moment before shifting his gaze away from them because he saw another familiar person. At this moment, that person was standing beside Fang Yao and looking at him. It was Chen Meng.


    ¡°What, do you not recognize me after not seeing me for so long? Brother, that¡¯s kind of harsh.¡± Chen Meng walked up to Mi Jin and punched him lightly in the chest.

 Chapter 168 - 168 The Battle Begins

    168 The Battle Begins


    ¡°W-When did you come back?¡± Mi Jin was surprised and stood there at a loss.


    ¡°It¡¯s all thanks to Miss Yin Xun for saving me and treating my injuries. She has been taking care of me all this while.¡± Chen Meng looked at Yin Xun gratefully.


    ¡°President Yin, so the gift that you are talking about is this¡­¡± Mi Jin looked at Chen Meng. He looked at him for a long time before he remembered to speak to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I promised you to save Chen Meng, so I won¡¯t go back on my word.¡±


    !!


    Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun gratefully, not knowing what to say.


    Yin Xun walked in front of him and patted his shoulder to comfort him. ¡°If you¡¯re really grateful to me, then work hard in the future and save your energy to deal with Si Fan. As long as Si Fan¡¯s company doesn¡¯t collapse, it means that we¡¯re not doing well enough.¡±


    Mi Jin promised, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I will do my best to help you deal with Si Fan. Of course, this is also my goal.¡±


    After Yin Xun and Mi Jin finished speaking, Fang Yao placed a piece of roasted meat on a plate and handed it to Yin Xun. He asked, ¡°You seem to like giving gifts.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and said, ¡°Of course. I look forward to this kind of surprise.¡±


    ¡°If I help you now, do I get a gift?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Yin Xun looked Fang Yao up and down and thought seriously for a while. ¡°Wait for a few days. I¡¯ll prepare it. I¡¯ll definitely satisfy you!¡±


    Yin Xun looked very serious as she spoke, but Fang Yao somehow felt that he should not set his expectations too high, or he might be disappointed.


    While Yin Xun and Fang Yao were chatting, Mi Jin had been paying attention to Chen Meng¡¯s situation.


    The two of them grew up together and had a good relationship. Although they often fought, their relationship would always be stable. Whenever the other was in trouble, they would never give up on each other.


    ¡°Mi Jin, although I trust Miss Yin very much, have you really decided to continue going against Si Fan? No one knows his character better than you. If he knows that you have left, he will definitely go all out to attack you,¡± Chen Meng said worriedly.


    Mi Jin sneered. ¡°Against me? Didn¡¯t he capture you to deal with me? At that time, I was obedient at home every day. He could do such a horrible thing. Do you think he would really let me off if I listened to him? You know the answer. It¡¯s impossible. In that case, I have a chance to go against him now. Why don¡¯t I give it a try? If I succeed, I won¡¯t have to worry about him anymore.¡±


    Chen Meng had been worried that Mi Jin had come out because of him. Now that he looked at it, Mi Jin was right. Even if he did not make a move, Si Fan would not let him off.


    In addition, Yin Xun and Fang Yao looked very reliable. He had a feeling that Mi Jin had chosen the right person this time.


    They had a big meal at Fang Yao¡¯s house. After eating, Yin Xun found someone to send Chen Meng away.


    Chen Meng had just escaped from Si Fan. Si Fan would definitely look for him again, but Chen Meng was not that important to Si Fan. If he could not find him for a while, he would probably give up.


    Now that he knew that Chen Meng was safe, Mi Jin was even more daring to fight Si Fan. Mi Jin and Yin Xun were quietly waiting for Si Fan¡¯s birthday. On that day, they would definitely give him a big surprise.


    Before Si Fan¡¯s birthday, Mi Jin had been training Yin Xun¡¯s new programmer to compete with Si Fan¡¯s company in the future.


    The two of them used a large chunk of time to make the most thorough preparations.


    Another week passed quickly. Finally, it was Si Fan¡¯s birthday.


    Yin Xun arrived at Xintao Company early in the morning. He was prepared to surprise Si Fan at work with Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin had also arrived early and was sitting in front of the computer, eager to make a move.


    Yin Xun looked at the time and asked, ¡°How¡¯s the preparation going? There won¡¯t be any accidents, right? Si Fan¡¯s banquet will start in ten minutes. You must start with him.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, President Yin. I am looking at the time. The test has already been done a few times. There will not be any bugs. Today, I will leave him with the most unforgettable birthday impression.¡±


    The two of them looked at the time and saw that it was ten o¡¯clock sharp. Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s time. Let¡¯s begin.¡±


    Mi Jin nodded. As the website and chat tools went online, the timed advertisements on the big screens outside began to play at the same time. Instantly, the subway, bus stop, community, shopping mall, and other public areas were filled with advertisements.

 Chapter 169 - 169 Who’s The One Behind This?

    169 Who¡¯s The One Behind This?


    Not only these places, but the pop-up windows of various websites were also advertisements for Xintao. Even Si Fan¡¯s company website had an advertisement for Xintao.


    Yin Xun and Mi Jin were watching the progress of the website in their office. When they saw that the website¡¯s advertisement had been successfully released, they were both very satisfied.


    ¡°I wonder if Si Fan saw our advertisement,¡± Mi Jin asked expectantly.


    Yin Xun smiled and looked at the website page. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Even if he doesn¡¯t see it, his employees will see it and tell him.¡±


    !!


    ¡°I wonder what his expression will be like. I really want to see it with my own eyes,¡± Mi Jin said sarcastically.


    Si Fan had caused him a lot of trouble back then. Now that he saw Si Fan suffer, Mi Jin finally felt a little better. It was a pity that he could not personally see Si Fan angry. If he could mock him in person, it would be even better. Mi Jin hoped that he would have this opportunity in the future.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s obvious that he doesn¡¯t look too good now, especially since our advertisement went all the way to his company. It would be strange if he could recover.¡±


    In the Star Dream Club, Si Fan was busy receiving the VIPs who had come to celebrate his birthday.


    Before the birthday party, he had started inviting those famous figures a month in advance. Afraid that they would not come, Si Fan had specially given them gifts according to their preferences. This trick was indeed effective. There were even many unfamiliar faces.


    In order to avoid neglecting anyone, Si Fan specially asked the club manager to split the waiters into two groups. The male waiters would receive the female VIPs, and the female waiters would receive the male VIPs. This way, everyone would have something to do.


    The banquet would only start at night. They were preparing during the day, so everyone came over purely to have fun.


    Just as Si Fan was busy receiving the distinguished guests, his assistant suddenly walked over with a nervous expression and invited him into the office.


    ¡°I¡¯m busy receiving VIPs now. If you have anything to say, say it quickly,¡± Si Fan said impatiently.


    ¡°President¡­¡± Cheng She took a deep breath and whispered, ¡°A small company is opening today. It¡¯s also mainly an online business¡­¡±


    ¡°Internet shopping company?¡± Si Fan did not take it to heart. He sneered and said nonchalantly, ¡°They dare to go against me? You overestimating them. Don¡¯t worry if there¡¯s nothing. Tell our merchants not to cooperate with the new company. If they dare to cooperate with the new company, they¡¯re going against me. Let them choose for themselves. It won¡¯t be long before that company is finished.¡±


    Si Fan turned around and was about to leave. The Blue Fox Company had been developing for so long and was already in a completely mature state. He did not have to worry about being affected by a small company. If they were really a pain, he would just use some strategies. No matter who was behind the small company, they would not be able to defeat the Blue Fox Company.


    However, after hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, not only did Cheng She not leave, he even looked troubled and stuttered.


    Seeing him like this, Si Fan frowned and said coldly, ¡°If you have something more to say, say it quickly. If you dawdle, I¡¯ll fire you.¡±


    Upon hearing that he was about to lose his job, Cheng She finally spoke. ¡°CEO, this small company seems to be different from the past ones. This boss seems to be very rich. Because the outside world is now filled with advertisements for this company. Not just that, but even the discounts are very high, attracting many new users. Now, the discussion about this company has already rushed to the top of the trending searches¡­¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this normal? They¡¯ll buy trending topics on the first day of the opening. We only want to see if they¡¯ll last until the end. Blue Fox is already a mature company. No new company can beat Blue Fox.¡± Si Fan did not mind at all.


    When Cheng She saw Si Fan like this, he hesitated for a moment before saying, ¡°CEO Si, this time, it¡¯s not as simple as buying a trending topic. They¡¯ve already attracted many old users.¡±


    ¡°What!¡± Si Fan shouted angrily. ¡°Who owns this company? How dare they openly go against me? What is the marketing department doing? Why didn¡¯t they pay attention to such a big matter and only told me now!¡±


    ¡°Because there was no relevant information about this company on the Internet in the past. It was so quiet, and then today, advertisements suddenly flew everywhere. It¡¯s obvious that they were deliberately targeting our company.¡± Cheng She did not have much confidence in his words, but as Si Fan¡¯s assistant, he had to say some things.


    ¡°Against me?¡± Si Fan said in a low voice. ¡°Today happens to be my birthday. Recently, I¡¯ve been busy preparing for something related and haven¡¯t been looking at the company. They took advantage of this period to play this trick. It must be intentional.¡±


    Si Fan looked at Cheng She coldly and asked, ¡°Who¡¯s the one behind this? Have you found out?¡±


    ¡°Yes, but¡­¡± Cheng She frowned and did not dare to continue.

 Chapter 170 - 170 Don’t Want To See Anyone

    170 Don¡¯t Want To See Anyone


    Si Fan shot him a sharp look. Cheng She hesitated for a moment before saying, ¡°According to the investigation, the boss behind this company¡­ is Yin Xun.¡±


    This was why he did not want to say it. Originally, the marketing department head should have reported this matter to Si Fan, but that guy was afraid that he would be fired for making a mistake, so he asked Cheng Shi to help say it.


    Cheng She was Si Fan¡¯s assistant. Usually, he only helped Si Fan and only reported work matters. Whether he made a mistake or not had nothing to do with him, so he did not have to worry about being fired for such a thing.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s name, Si Fan¡¯s expression turned even uglier. He said fiercely, ¡°Since Yin Xun opened it, have you found any other information?¡±


    !!


    Cheng She hurriedly replied, ¡°I¡¯ve found out everything. I sent it to your email this morning.¡±


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t you say so earlier!¡± Si Fan said angrily. Then, he quickly opened his email and opened the information.


    There was not any useful information in the email. It was just about the opening time, how much they had done to promote it, and that it was supported by the Yin family.


    They were all types of information on the surface, but there was nothing practical.


    ¡°What have I supported you for? I want the specific investor behind Yin Xun and detailed information about their company!¡± Si Fan slammed the table angrily after reading it. ¡°Also, why does even our company have an advertisement for Yin Xun¡¯s company? What is the advertising department doing? How can they even pass such a thing? Hurry up and withdraw it!¡±


    When Cheng She heard Si Fan¡¯s curses, he could not help but complain in his heart. Who was relying on Si Fan to support them? Everyone was earning money through their own hard work. He was really shameless. Their salaries would often be deducted at the drop of a hat, yet he still had the cheek to say that he was supporting them.


    However, Cheng She only dared to complain in his heart. He did not dare to voice it at all.


    There was also the matter of advertising. Back then, he had asked Si Fan if there was anything he needed to pay attention to. Si Fan had said that as long as it was not something illegal, no matter what it was, he would pass it as long as the price was right. Now, he was blaming them.


    Cheng She could not help but say, ¡°CEO Si, this is what you said back then. As long as the price was right, any advertisement can be released. Moreover, we¡¯ve already signed the contract. We can¡¯t terminate it, or we¡¯ll have to pay the penalty.¡±


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter who the advertiser is, but we can¡¯t advertise Yin Xun¡¯s company. We¡¯ll terminate the collaboration immediately and compensate for the breach of contract as usual.¡± Si Fan threw the documents on the table to the ground. He did not expect to be tricked by Yin Xun. He was really angry.


    ¡°Keep an eye on the company¡¯s profits and report to me at all times!¡± After Si Fan instructed him, he let Cheng She leave.


    Just as he was thinking about how to deal with Yin Xun, Secretary Chu Jia called him.


    ¡°President Si, there¡¯s a Mr. Fang who wants to see you. Do you want to see him?¡± the secretary asked.


    ¡°No, no, I won¡¯t see anyone now!¡± Si Fan rejected impatiently. ¡°You guys maintain the banquet for me. I have other things to do. Don¡¯t disturb me unless it¡¯s something especially important!¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± The secretary hung up.


    Si Fan picked up the information again and looked at it. Now that Yin Xun had put in so much effort to advertise, she must have spent a lot of money. Even if the Yin family supported her with all their might, they could not let her burn so much money. Therefore, Yin Xun must have a few very powerful investors behind him.


    However, who could this investor be? Si Fan ordered his assistant to investigate, but there was no result. This suddenly made him feel uneasy.


    At the same time, he was also curious. Yin Xun had clearly never been to his company, and Si Fan had always paid attention to the confidentiality of the company. How did she know exactly what his company did?


    Not only did she know the direction of his company¡¯s development, but she also knew that he was going to develop into a mobile phone company. She even beat him to it. She must have an insider in his company.


    Who could this spy be? Could it be Bai Bing?


    Soon, Si Fan rejected his own thoughts. Bai Bing had just been discovered by Yin Xun. It was impossible for Yin Xun to do such a thing immediately.


    It could be seen that Yin Xun had already prepared everything beforehand. Not only did it take time and investment to place advertisements, but it also took some time to research the website.


    The frustrated Si Fan picked up the things on the table and smashed them on the ground without even looking at them. At this moment, he needed to rely on smashing things to vent the anger in his heart.

 Chapter 171 - 171 Got Hit Again

    171 Got Hit Again


    Yin Mo looked for Si Fan in the club and realized that he was not there. She only found out that Si Fan was in the office after asking Cheng She, so Yin Mo walked toward Si Fan¡¯s office.


    In the crowd, Liu Ying was also looking for Si Fan. Seeing that Yin Mo knew where Si Fan was, she quickly followed. She had two things to do today. The first was to give Si Fan a gift, and the second was to discuss the investment with Si Fan.


    Si Fan really liked her. He did not even look for Yin Mo for investments. Instead, he asked her directly. Based on Si Fan¡¯s trust, Liu Ying would definitely not disappoint him.


    Yin Mo arrived at Si Fan¡¯s office. Without knocking, she pushed the door open and walked in. ¡°Fan, today is your birthday. You¡¯re the main character. Why aren¡¯t you going out? Why are you here?¡±


    Si Fan picked up the ashtray on the table and threw it at the wall. Yin Mo was caught off guard and was hit in the head by the ashtray. She screamed and blood immediately flowed down her forehead.


    When Si Fan heard the scream, he quickly turned around. When he realized that it was Yin Mo, the guilty look on his face disappeared.


    Si Fan looked at her impatiently and asked, ¡°What are you doing here?¡±


    ¡°Fan, I wanted to call you out because there are many people looking for you outside.¡± Yin Mo covered her wound. Her face was pale. Although it was very painful, she held it in and did not make a sound.


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo and suddenly remembered that Yin Mo was with him every day. She must know about the company. Could it be that she told Yin Mo the secret?


    Although Yin Mo said that she loved him, she and Yin Xun were biological sisters after all. Perhaps it was really Yin Mo who told Yin Xun about this.


    Even if she did not say it herself, Yin Mo was so stupid. As long as Yin Xun used a little trick, Yin Mo might tell her everything.


    ¡°Yin Mo, let me ask you. Did you tell Yin Xun about my company?¡± Si Fan stepped forward and grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s collar.


    Yin Mo was shocked by Si Fan¡¯s actions. Her eyes turned red as she asked in confusion, ¡°Fan, what are you talking about? I don¡¯t understand.¡±


    Outside the door, Liu Ying, who had come with Yin Mo, was about to enter. When she heard what Si Fan said to her, she froze on the spot and looked into the room in shock. She saw blood flowing from Yin Mo¡¯s forehead.


    In her heart, Si Fan had always been a steady and reliable man. Although he was usually a little cold, he treated Yin Mo and his sister very well, making her feel that she could rely on him.


    However, what was she seeing now? Si Fan actually treated Yin Mo so roughly. Were they not a very intimate couple?


    Yin Mo¡¯s forehead was covered in blood. Not only did Si Fan pretend not to see it, he even grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s collar and questioned her!


    Liu Ying was afraid that Si Fan would see her, so she quickly hid at the side and decided to see what Si Fan and Yin Mo would do first.


    Seeing that Yin Mo refused to admit it, Si Fan slapped her again and reprimanded loudly, ¡°It¡¯s all because of your sister. I¡¯m your boyfriend and her future brother-in-law. She actually dared to go against me. I started an online company, and she also started an online company. I wanted to develop mobile shopping, but she developed mobile shopping too.¡±


    ¡°Has your Yin family never treated me as one of your own? How dare you use such a despicable method to deal with me? Tell me, should I be angry?¡±


    At this moment, Si Fan¡¯s mind was filled with Yin Xin¡¯s company. In addition, he had been pestered by Si Xia and Yin Mo recently. He was already in a bad mood, and now, he wanted to strangle Yin Mo to death.


    Si Fan grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s collar and lifted her up. She struggled and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know, Fan. I really don¡¯t know. How could I help my sister fight you? You¡¯ve misunderstood!¡±


    Looking at the blood on Yin Mo¡¯s forehead and hearing her say this, Si Fan suddenly came back to his senses.


    No, although he hated Yin Mo now, he could not show it. Yin Mo was still useful now, and he could use her to deal with Yin Xun. If he provoked Yin Mo now, he would lose a helper in the future.


    At the thought of this, Si Fan quickly put Yin Mo down and pulled her into his arms to comfort her. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Lil Mo. I was too impulsive just now. I was too anxious, so I became violent. I didn¡¯t mean anything. I just wanted to ask if you knew about this. It¡¯s all my fault for hurting you¡­¡±


    Yin Mo said aggrievedly, ¡°Fan, you scared me just now. I thought I had done something wrong.¡±


    As she spoke, Yin Mo started crying.

 Chapter 172 - 172 Hackers In Action

    172 Hackers In Action


    Si Fan raised his hand and prepared to slap himself. ¡°Lil Mo, I¡¯ll take a hit as well. This way, you¡¯ll feel better, right?¡±


    Yin Mo quickly stopped Si Fan¡¯s hand. ¡°Fan, don¡¯t be like this. I don¡¯t blame you. I know you¡¯re acting like this because you¡¯re too anxious. But I really didn¡¯t know that my sister opened the same type of company as you. It¡¯s all her fault. Don¡¯t worry. When I get back, I¡¯ll definitely help you ask about it. I won¡¯t let you suffer!¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Si Fan grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s hand. ¡°But I hurt you just now. This wasn¡¯t intentional. It¡¯s all my fault. Does your forehead still hurt?¡±


    ¡°As long as you don¡¯t blame me, I won¡¯t feel any pain.¡± Yin Mo looked at Si Fan affectionately.


    !!


    Seeing the situation in the room, Liu Ying was shocked. She pinched herself to make sure that she was not dreaming.


    What did she just see? Not only did Yin Mo not blame Si Fan for hitting her, she even found an excuse for him. As for Si Fan, he reminded her of the domestic violence she had seen on the news.


    Those men started to regret it after hitting their wives and begged for forgiveness.


    Looking at Yin Mo, whose forehead was still bleeding, Liu Ying really wanted to tell her to quickly treat her wound. It would be bad if she got infected. However, she looked at Si Fan a few more times and felt that this man was too terrifying. She was afraid that she would be beaten up if she provoked Si Fan, so she quietly turned around and fled.


    Si Fan had no idea what was happening outside the door. At this moment, he was still apologizing to Yin Mo and acting all lovey-dovey.


    Just as the two of them were getting intimate, the office door suddenly opened. Cheng She rushed in in a panic. ¡°President Si, bad news, bad news!¡±


    When Si Fan heard the words ¡®bad news¡¯, his head hurt. He said angrily, ¡°Don¡¯t you know how to knock?¡±


    ¡°I-I¡¯m sorry, CEO Si.¡± Cheng She quickly apologized. ¡°But didn¡¯t you say that you would report to you if anything happened?¡±


    Si Fan sighed and said, ¡°Go ahead.¡± He suddenly noticed Yin Mo and gestured for Cheng She to wait for a while. Then, he said to Yin Mo, ¡°Lil Mo, I still have something to deal with here. Go back first and treat the wound on your forehead. Is that okay?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll tell my sister about this and ask her not to target you. Fan, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll definitely help you tell her.¡±


    After assuring Si Fan, Yin Mo left. Only then did Si Fan let Cheng She continue.


    ¡°President Si, Yin Xun¡¯s new company has only been open for half a day, but its turnover has already exceeded ours by half a month. Moreover, our old users have also gone to her website to register and buy things, causing the number of users on our website to decrease drastically. If this continues, it would be considered lucky if our website¡¯s turnover is only halved this month. I¡¯m afraid that our old users have all been poached by Yin Xun¡¯s website.¡±


    Cheng She began to report to Si Fan. He looked at the mess on the ground and silently took two steps back, afraid that Si Fan would go crazy and implicate him again. After all, he had seen Yin Mo¡¯s tragic state when he first entered.


    As expected, after listening to Cheng She¡¯s report, Si Fan picked up the things on the table and threw them on the ground.


    After venting, he said to Cheng She with a dark expression, ¡°Cheng She, inform the technical department and get them to move out immediately.¡±


    Si Fan took a deep breath. Was Yin Xun just relying on the fact that she was Yin Mo¡¯s sister and thought that he would not touch her, so she went against him so brazenly?


    If so, he would show her what he could do. So, she had covered the sky with publicity, had she? Then he would hack her website and cause problems. If the users could not register or buy anything, Yin Xun would not be able to continue to earn money.


    When he heard that Si Fan was actually going to mobilize the company¡¯s technical department, Cheng She was shocked. Si Fan was actually thinking of mobilizing the technical department. It seemed like he was really angry.


    On the surface, Si Fan¡¯s technical department was responsible for maintaining the company¡¯s website. However, this was only a legal identity. In fact, the real work of the technical department was to attack other companies¡¯ websites. Every programmer in it was a rather outstanding hacker. These people only listened to Si Fan and helped him unravel many company websites. This was how Blue Fox could dominate the scene.


    Originally, this was Si Fan¡¯s trump card and would not be easily used. However, this time, Si Fan actually made them mobilize. It seemed that Yin Xun was really a threat to Si Fan.


    Although Cheng She felt that Si Fan was making a mountain out of a molehill, he was their boss. He just had to be obedient. Cheng She quickly agreed and contacted the technical department.

 Chapter 173 - 173 Easy Resistance

    173 Easy Resistance


    At this moment, at Xintao Company, Yin Xun and Mi Jin were constantly monitoring the situation on the website. According to Yin Xun¡¯s understanding of Si Fan, he would not let things develop like this.


    ¡°It¡¯s already been half a day and Si Fan still hasn¡¯t made a move. This is a little abnormal.¡± Mi Jin was already a little anxious from waiting. At this moment, he could not wait to face Si Fan head-on.


    Yin Xun comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. Si Fan isn¡¯t an impulsive person. Before he makes a move, he definitely has to make sure that he¡¯s safe.¡±


    Yin Xun was very satisfied when she saw that new users were constantly registering on the website and the number of orders was huge.


    !!


    Right now, she was purely losing money. She was the one paying for all the discounts, while the merchants and users had all the advantages.


    The two of them waited for a while before Mi Jin suddenly sat up straight and said to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, Si Fan has started to attack.¡±


    Yin Xun patted Mi Jin¡¯s shoulder and smiled. ¡°I¡¯ll leave everything to you. You should be able to handle it. If you really can¡¯t, let our technical team take action.¡±


    ¡°For safety¡¯s sake, I¡¯ll deal with it myself first. In case I can¡¯t deal with it, I¡¯ll get them to help,¡± Mi Jin said. He placed his hand on the keyboard and began to resist.


    Yin Xun was not worried at all.


    She knew Mi Jin¡¯s strength. Mi Jin was a computer genius. He had already won countless awards when he was still in university. The programs he wrote were also selected for textbooks.


    Originally, he had the ability to use his hacking skills to deal with Si Fan. He could have completely paralyzed Si Fan¡¯s website, but Mi Jin¡¯s morals did not allow him to do so.


    Even after he was framed by Si Fan and jailed twice, he could not find a job and could not afford to eat. He had always stayed true to his heart and did not do anything illegal.


    When Yin Xun first saw his behavior in the novel, she felt that he was a little too honest and pedantic. Now that she was working with Mi Jin, Yin Xun felt that Mi Jin¡¯s behavior of sticking to his moral line was very good. This made her very relieved.


    Yin Xun sat at the side and watched Mi Jin¡¯s defense without saying a word.


    ¡°President Yin, Si Fan is using the virus to attack us. If we leave it alone, our website will not just be paralyzed. All the users who registered on our website, even they will be affected. For example, the money in our bank cards will be stolen. But you don¡¯t have to worry. I have already set up anti-virus software and intercepted all those attacks.¡±


    Mi Jin explained to Yin Xun while resisting the hackers¡¯ attacks. However, after talking for a long time, he realized that Yin Xun did not react at all.


    ¡°From this attack, it can be seen that there¡¯s more than one hacker attacking our website, and their skills are not bad. From their methods, they should be the people Si Fan recruited before I left. I trained them, so I know their attacks very well. If you need it, I can not only simply intercept them, I can also¡­¡±


    ¡°President Yin?¡± Mi Jin could not help but call out to Yin Xun. At the same time, he lifted his head up to look at Yin Xun. He realized that her eyes were staring at the computer, and she seemed to be listening to him very seriously.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun was stunned for a moment before realizing that Mi Jin was talking to her. She said calmly, ¡°I¡¯m just watching. I don¡¯t know anything about these professional things.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at the plain image on the computer and was a little disappointed. This was different from her fantasy of a hacker war.


    In the movies, she would see that the computer of a hacker was filled with many incomprehensible letters and lines. Then, the images scrolled exceptionally quickly. The speed of the hackers¡¯ hands was comparable to driving a car.


    Apart from that, hackers wearing black clothes, masks, and voice changers looked very handsome.


    However, when she saw Mi Jin fighting with other hackers, his hands were indeed moving fast, but in other aspects, it was completely different from the movies. It was not as cool as she had imagined.


    However, although he was not cool-looking, Yin Xun could tell that Mi Jin was strong. He could fight against several people alone and was not at a disadvantage at all.


    ¡°Where are we at now?¡± Yin Xun sat still and watched Mi Jin resist the attacks for a long time, but it was not over yet. She was getting a little irritated from waiting.


    Mi Jin had been relaxed since the beginning. He did not feel nervous at all, giving Yin Xun the illusion that he was playing around.

 Chapter 174 - 174 Yin Mo Is Here

    174 Yin Mo Is Here


    Yin Xun looked at the time. There was still a press conference to attend later, but looking at Mi Jin¡¯s current state, it seemed like it would not end anytime soon. She might have to miss this press conference.


    ¡°President Yin, I can end it at any time. Right now, I am just in the midst of defense,¡± Mi Jin said calmly.


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. Why did this feel more relaxed than she had imagined?


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°Then how do we end it? I still have to attend the launch of the Zhenku phone in two hours. Can I make it in time?¡±


    !!


    ¡°That¡¯s simple. As long as you need it, not only can I end it immediately, but I can also track them back,¡± Mi Jin said with a smile.


    ¡°Counter-tracking?¡± Yin Xun was surprised. ¡°What do you mean? Can we follow the path they attacked and counterattack? Can we paralyze their system? If not, help me pass a message.¡±


    ¡°The technology of the Empire Guardian isn¡¯t that mature yet. It¡¯s easy to deal with them,¡± Mi Jin said.


    ¡°What? What did you just say their names were? Empire¡­ Guardian?¡± Yin Xun frowned. What kind of name was that? Why did it sound so¡­ silly?


    Mi Jin was a little embarrassed. ¡°Yes, the Empire Guardian. He named it when I was still in Blue Fox. He said that he wanted to become an emperor-like existence, and then hackers like them would be his guardians. In fact, it¡¯s almost the same because these hackers helped him do many illegal things. Because their skills were good, they perfectly avoided the cyber police in the end.¡±


    Mi Jin sighed and continued, ¡°Other than this hacker team, there¡¯s also a team of hitmen who specialize in helping him do those unsightly things. It¡¯s just that I¡¯ve never seen this team of thugs. I only heard him mention them back then.¡±


    The Empire Guardian. Yin Xun felt awkward just listening to him. As expected of the original male protagonist. He completely ignored the law and was not arrested even after doing so many illegal things.


    ¡°By the way, since you can counterattack, just paralyze his program. Also, help me pass on a message,¡± Yin Xun requested after sighing.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Mi Jin¡¯s hands never left the keyboard as she spoke.


    The corners of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth curled up slightly. Since she had the opportunity to experience the online war, what was the point of just resisting? She should add something more fun to this war. That would match the feeling in the movies.


    However, at this moment, the receptionist suddenly called. Yin Xun gestured for Mi Jin to wait for a while before answering.


    ¡°President Yin, Miss Yin Mo is here to look for you. Do you want to bring her over to meet you?¡± the receptionist asked.


    Yin Xun frowned. How did Yin Mo find her new company? Yin Mo would never look for her for no reason. Since she was here today, it was most likely for Si Fan.


    ¡°Take her to my office,¡± Yin Xun said.


    ¡°Okay,¡± the receptionist agreed.


    Yin Xun said to Mi Jin, ¡°I¡¯ll do this when I get back. I¡¯ll go see why Yin Mo is looking for me.¡±


    After instructing Mi Jin, Yin Xun opened the door and went back to her office.


    The receptionist accompanied Yin Mo and waited for Yin Xun inside. When she saw Yin Xun, the receptionist left.


    ¡°Sister, how could you do this? You clearly know that Fan is also running an online company. Why do you still want to open this company? He¡¯s my boyfriend. Are you going against him just to snatch his business?¡± Yin Mo questioned Yin Xun when she saw her.


    Yin Xun sighed. She had guessed that Yin Mo had come to look for her for this reason. She did not expect Yin Mo would still defend Si Fan even after Si Fan had treated her like that.


    ¡°What does my company have to do with you and Si Fan? Is that why you¡¯re here? I¡¯m sorry, but my company has already started. I can¡¯t cancel it.¡± Yin Xun sat leisurely on the sofa and casually picked up a cup for a sip of tea.


    ¡°Sister, Fan and I will get married in the future. At that time, we¡¯ll be a family. Do you think it¡¯s good for a family to do such a thing? I know. You¡¯re angry that Xing Cheng doesn¡¯t like you anymore, so you¡¯re attacking Fan to attract his attention. Sister, you like Xing Cheng. If you want to be with him, you can just say it. We¡¯ll help you.¡±


    As Yin Mo spoke, she walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and tried to hold her arm.


    Yin Xun dodged to the side and frowned. ¡°You keep talking about Xing Cheng. It looks like you¡¯re the one who can¡¯t forget Xing Cheng. In that case, I¡¯ll help you pull some strings one day and let you confess your feelings to him.¡±

 Chapter 175 - 175 Can’t Win

    175 Can¡¯t Win


    ¡°Sister, what are you talking about? I don¡¯t like Xing Cheng. I only like my Fan!¡± Yin Mo explained anxiously.


    Yin Xun looked up and suddenly saw the gauze on Yin Mo¡¯s forehead. She asked curiously, ¡°What¡¯s with the wound on your forehead?¡±


    There were blood marks on the gauze. It was obvious that she had just been beaten, and it looked quite serious.


    Yin Mo stammered, ¡°Well, I accidentally got injured by Fan¡­¡±


    !!


    ¡°Accidentally?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. It seemed that Yin Mo had been abused again before she came, and she was willing to be beaten up.


    ¡®Sigh, I didn¡¯t expect Yin Mo to speak up for Si Fan even after being beaten up. Such a stupid brain is really the only one in the world.¡¯


    ¡°Yeah, he¡¯s heartbroken.¡± Yin Mo looked quite proud.


    Yin Xun could not help but laugh. Yin Mo was really stupid. She even felt that she should not be angry with such a person because there was no need.


    ¡°How about this? Seeing how badly you¡¯ve been beaten up, I¡¯ll tell you something very useful to Si Fan. Go back and tell him.¡±


    Yin Xun called Yin Mo to her side and whispered mysteriously into her ear, ¡°Other than advertising and giving discounts, I have another way to attract new users, which is to work with mobile phone suppliers. Si Fan also has this business opportunity, but he¡¯s too late. If he wants to go against me, tell him that the method is actually very simple. He just needs to have money.¡±


    ¡°Money?¡± Yin Mo frowned and looked at Yin Xun. ¡°Sister, did you use all our family¡¯s money to invest in a new company? Because I spent all my money, Dad stopped giving me pocket money. Are you going against Fan? Sister, why do you dislike Fan so much? We¡¯re family!¡±


    Looking at Yin Mo¡¯s angry expression, Yin Xun sighed. She was too lazy to continue talking to her about this.


    ¡°I¡¯ve already told you everything that needs to be said. It¡¯s a waste of time for you to stay here. Hurry up and leave. Bring the news to Si Fan. Who knows, he might even be grateful to you,¡± Yin Xun said.


    However, Yin Mo did not want to leave. When Yin Xun saw this, she did not stand on ceremony and called the bodyguards to chase Yin Mo out.


    After chasing Yin Mo away, Yin Xun returned to Mi Jin¡¯s office. Mi Jin was still resisting the hackers.


    ¡°President Yin, you are back. Then should we start now?¡± Mi Jin asked.


    ¡°From now on, I believe he will be pleasantly surprised to see it.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    Dawn Club.


    Cheng She was in charge of hacking. He had been waiting for the call from the other side of the club.


    After a long time, he finally received a call from the team leader of the Empire Guardian. The team leader told him that not only did they fail to take down Xintao¡¯s defense, but the other party also discovered their IP address, causing him to be exposed.


    The other party had also set a trap and it was very powerful. If they made a mistake, the website system of Blue Fox would be paralyzed.


    Therefore, now was the most critical moment. If they could not defend against the other party¡¯s attack, Blue Fox Corporation would be finished.


    When Cheng She heard this, he felt a chill run down his spine. The other party was so powerful that even the hacker team that Si Fan had spent so much effort to nurture could not defeat him. It was over now. It seemed like Si Fan had provoked a strong enemy.


    Si Fan was having a headache in his office. Cheng She mustered up the courage to report to him, ¡°President Si, our hackers can¡¯t beat the other party. Not only that, but they even managed to find the IP address. What should we do?¡±


    Splash!


    Si Fan angrily swept all the documents on the table to the ground. He roared in a low voice, ¡°Trash, all of you are trash. You can¡¯t even defeat a programmer from a new company. What are you doing? Are you freeloaders?¡±


    Listening to the melodious music playing in the club, Si Fan tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and asked Cheng She, ¡°What¡¯s going on outside now? Did they notice anything unusual?¡±


    ¡°No, we found a lot of people to take care of them. However, although there¡¯s nothing wrong overall, a few guests asked where you were. We only said that you were busy and would be back soon. CEO Si, do you want to go out and take a look? After all, it¡¯s your birthday today. Everyone came because of you,¡± Cheng She advised Si Fan anxiously.


    The reason Cheng She took the risk to persuade Si Fan was not that he really wanted to think for the company, but because he was worried that Si Fan would make him pay for it in the future.

 Chapter 176 - 176 Don’t Want To Talk To Him Anymore

    176 Don¡¯t Want To Talk To Him Anymore


    ¡°Tell the team that no matter what method they use, they have to paralyze Xintao¡¯s website.¡± Si Fan felt that Cheng She was right. Today was his birthday. If he did not show up all day, it would be easy for others to gossip.


    ¡°Alright, President Si. I¡¯ll tell them.¡± Cheng She agreed and left.


    Si Fan took a deep breath and tried his best to return to normal. Then, he looked in the mirror for a long time. After confirming that there were no flaws, he walked out.


    When he went out, he saw Liu Ying standing in the middle of the hall talking to someone.


    When Si Fan saw her, he thought of the investment he had told her about the other day. At that time, Liu Ying had agreed very readily. Not only that, but she had also said that she wanted to give him a gift. At that time, seeing how mysterious she was, he felt that she was going to give him a very precious gift.


    Si Fan walked to Liu Ying¡¯s side and greeted her, ¡°Liu Ying, why didn¡¯t you look for me when you came over?¡±


    Liu Ying looked at Si Fan with an unfamiliar gaze.


    She sized up Si Fan and said in a polite and distant tone, ¡°CEO Si is too busy. How would he have the time to see me?¡±


    Si Fan did not sense the change in Liu Ying¡¯s attitude. He only thought that Liu Ying was embarrassed in a crowded place.


    ¡°Come with me for a moment. We¡¯ll talk in my office.¡± Si Fan turned and walked in the direction of the office.


    After taking a few steps, he turned around and realized that Liu Ying was not following him.


    ¡°Liu Ying?¡± Si Fan returned.


    Being invited by Si Fan, Liu Ying felt inexplicably flustered.


    She recalled the scene of Si Fan hitting Yin Mo just now. Si Fan, who originally had a great image in her heart, had lost his temper like a mad dog. Only then did she know that Si Fan was like those domestic violence men outside.


    She was not like Yin Mo who did not care about a person¡¯s character when she liked someone. Since Si Fan was so terrifying, she had to stay away from him in the future. In order to prevent Si Fan from doing anything harmful, she could not make it too obvious.


    ¡°President Si, my friend and I still have something to deal with. If there¡¯s anything, just say it here.¡± Liu Ying rejected the request to leave with Si Fan. She was afraid that she would not be able to leave Si Fan¡¯s office.


    Si Fan looked at the person who had just spoken to Liu Ying. He lowered his head and thought for a moment. Seeing that Liu Ying really had no intention of leaving with him, he compromised.


    ¡°What did you think about what I told you last time?¡± However, Si Fan did not talk about it directly.


    Liu Ying pretended to forget. ¡°What is it? Did we talk about anything? I just came back recently and have been at home. I don¡¯t think I¡¯ve met you yet. CEO Si has a lot of things to do. Did you remember wrongly?¡±


    Si Fan wanted to ask Liu Ying in detail, but he was afraid that the other guests would misunderstand that he had no money, so he could only smile and say, ¡°No, then I must have remembered wrongly.¡±


    Si Fan was talking to Liu Ying when he suddenly received a call from Cheng She.


    ¡°President Si, something happened here. Could you come over?¡± Cheng She hesitated before saying.


    Si Fan frowned. Although he wanted to ask Cheng She in detail what had happened, he could only say with a calm expression, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll be right there.¡±


    After hanging up, Si Fan looked at Liu Ying and instructed, ¡°I still have something to deal with at my company. I¡¯ll look for you when I come back.¡±


    When Liu Ying heard that Si Fan was still looking for her, her expression instantly changed. The corners of her mouth twitched twice before she forced a smile. ¡°O-Okay.¡±


    Although she agreed verbally, when Liu Ying saw Si Fan leave the club, she seized the opportunity and secretly left.


    Seeing Si Fan like that had really frightened her. She did not want to risk her life just to see a man with violent tendencies.


    Liu Ying, who had just left the place, saw Yin Mo walking toward the clubhouse. At this moment, Yin Mo¡¯s head was still covered in gauze.


    ¡°Liu Ying, you¡¯re here too. Why didn¡¯t you tell me?¡± Yin Mo saw that Liu Ying was very happy and quickly went forward to hold Liu Ying¡¯s arm, wanting to pull her into the club.


    Liu Ying did not move. Instead, she looked at Yin Mo with a weird gaze. After taking a few glances, she deliberated and said, ¡°Are you here to look for Si Fan?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Fan asked me to help him ask my sister something. I just came back. Are you also looking for Fan? He seems to have encountered some difficulties recently and needs help. I didn¡¯t expect you to come out at this time. It¡¯s good that he has people to help him.¡± Yin Mo¡¯s face was slightly red as she lowered her head and said shyly.


    Liu Ying wanted to ask Yin Mo why she did not leave him even after being beaten up by Si Fan and even continued to help him like this. However, she was afraid that Yin Mo would tell Si Fan and eventually sell her out.

 Chapter 177 - 177 Persuading Her To Leave

    177 Persuading Her To Leave


    ¡°How did you get that wound on your head? Did someone hit you?¡± Liu Ying pretended not to know and asked.


    ¡°My injury?¡± Yin Mo raised her hand and gently touched her forehead. Her expression changed for a moment, but she quickly recovered.


    She said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I accidentally knocked my head. It¡¯s not serious. I¡¯ll be fine soon.¡±


    Liu Ying looked at Yin Mo and said, ¡°I don¡¯t think you injured yourself. Did someone hit you? Also, why is there a palm print on your face? You¡¯re the second daughter of the Yin family. Who would hit you? This person must have bad intentions for you, right? It seems that the person who hit you is very dangerous. I advise you to stay away.¡±


    !!


    In the past, Liu Ying had challenged Yin Mo to snatch Si Fan from her. She felt that only a powerful person like Si Fan was worthy of her.


    Now, her admiration for Si Fan had receded, leaving only fear and disgust. If she was pestered by such a man, it would be terrifying.


    Since she had already decided to give up on Si Fan and stop liking him, her hatred for Yin Mo was gone.


    Liu Ying knew that Yin Mo had always treated her as a friend. Even when she obeyed Si Fan¡¯s instructions and caused harm to Yin Mo, Yin Mo never once blamed her.


    Liu Ying wanted to quietly urge Yin Mo to see Si Fan¡¯s true colors.


    Unfortunately, Yin Mo did not understand Liu Ying¡¯s words. Hearing Liu Ying¡¯s words, she felt that Liu Ying did not understand the situation and misunderstood Si Fan.


    ¡°Oh, Liu Ying, don¡¯t worry. It was Fan who hit me. He was just too anxious at that time, so he lashed out. Later on, he even apologized to me. Not just that, but he also felt very sorry for me,¡± Yin Mo explained.


    When Liu Ying saw that Yin Mo did not understand what she meant, she immediately gave up on persuading her and put dropped the act so that she would not be in danger in the future.


    ¡°Alright, since you think so, there¡¯s no need for me to say anything else. I still have something to do, so I¡¯ll leave first. Oh right, Si Fan just left the club. I heard that he has returned to the company. If you want to look for him, go to his company.¡± After Liu Ying finished speaking, she turned away from Yin Mo and left.


    Seeing that Liu Ying had left, Yin Mo did not go to the club anymore. Instead, she hailed a cab and rushed to the Blue Fox Company.


    At this moment, Si Fan was rushing toward Blue Fox. He had just arrived at the company when he was called over by Cheng She.


    Si Fan arrived at the technical department¡¯s office. Seeing the strange expressions on everyone¡¯s faces, he frowned and walked over.


    When he walked to the computer, he realized why everyone had the same expression. He saw a sentence written on all the computers in the office. ¡°I¡¯ve been watching you.¡±


    At this moment, Cheng She was right behind Si Fan. When he saw the words on the computer, he immediately felt his hair stand on end. Initially, when he heard from the technical department that they had been counterattacked by the other party, he already felt that it was terrifying enough. He did not expect the other party to be able to control their computers now.


    Although it was only a programming problem, Cheng She was still so frightened that he quietly left the technical department.


    Si Fan looked at the words on the computer and his anger surged. At this moment, he seemed to actually feel that there was a pair of eyes watching him in the dark, monitoring his every move.


    ¡°How many people are there?¡± Si Fan suppressed his anger and asked.


    He had spent a lot of effort nurturing these programmers here. How could they be beaten up by a new company¡¯s programmers?


    Si Fan found it unbelievable. Could it be that the other party had also recruited many hackers?


    The team leader replied, ¡°There seems to be only one person on the other side.¡±


    ¡°One?¡± Si Fan picked up the blanket on the table beside him and threw it to the ground. At the same time, he said angrily, ¡°The other party is alone. How can you not defeat him with so many of you?¡±


    He knew that Yin Xun had asked the programmer to show him these words. Perhaps Yin Xun was really monitoring his own actions at all times. Otherwise, how could she know so much about his business and even open for business at such a time?


    Cheng She looked at the crazy Si Fan and was glad that he had gotten out of the way early. Otherwise, he would have become a collateral casualty. He knew that Si Fan would throw things when he was angry. If he was too close to him, he would be easily injured.


    ¡°CEO Si, don¡¯t be anxious. The other party is a newly opened company. We don¡¯t know them well enough, so we don¡¯t know which big shot they hired. Let¡¯s calm down and investigate first. It won¡¯t be too late for us to take action after we find out who¡¯s helping Yin Xun,¡± Cheng She said.

 Chapter 178 - 178 Everyone Lost

    178 Everyone Lost


    However, Si Fan acted as if he did not hear anything. He was still thinking about what his team leader had said just now. The other party was only one hacker, but he had fought against the technical department of the seven of them.


    ¡°A single person, a very strong hacker, saved Chen Meng¡­¡± Suddenly, Si Fan seemed to have thought of something and his pupils dilated. ¡°Wait, so much evidence points to one person¡­¡±


    The next moment, Si Fan took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number.


    The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Si Fan did not wait for the other party to speak and directly asked, ¡°Chi Bo, where is Chen Meng now? Hurry up and bring Chen Meng back.¡±


    !!


    ¡°Ah?¡± Chi Bo¡¯s voice sounded a little guilty. He smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°President Si, ever since Chen Meng was saved by Yin Xun, he has been missing. We don¡¯t know where he is at all. Later on, I sent people to look for him, but we couldn¡¯t find him. If you want to know where he is, you can ask Yin Xun.¡±


    ¡°Are you stupid? Yin Xun was the one who saved him. If I ask her, wouldn¡¯t I be sending the evidence to her!¡± Si Fan spat. ¡°You piece of trash, you can¡¯t even keep an eye on a person. If it weren¡¯t for He Lan, I would have taken your life!¡±


    Chi Bo apologized profusely, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, CEO Si. I really didn¡¯t mean it. My wife brought Yin Xun over and I was threatened by her. I didn¡¯t dare to refuse. You know her temper. If I dare to go against her, I¡¯ll lose my life too¡­¡±


    He knew that it was useless to tell Chi Bo this. He had originally captured Chen Meng to threaten Mi Jin. Now that Chen Meng had escaped, he could only think of another way.


    After scolding Chi Bo again, Si Fan hung up.


    After that, Si Fan called Mi Gang again.


    ¡°Mi Gang, let me ask you, where is Mi Jin now?¡± Si Fan had lost his patience. When the other party picked up the call, he immediately asked sternly.


    ¡°President Si, didn¡¯t I tell you last time that he¡¯s still in that rental house? I¡¯ll go over and find trouble with him when I have nothing to do¡­¡± Mi Gang said confidently.


    ¡°If I didn¡¯t see him in that rental house, then you can take the punishment on behalf of Mi Jin.¡± Si Fan was about to hang up after saying that.


    ¡°President Si, wait, don¡¯t hang up first! I¡¯ll talk, I¡¯ll tell you everything!¡± Mi Gang knew that Si Fan meant what he said. When he heard that Si Fan was about to hang up, he quickly stopped him and told him the truth.


    ¡°President Si, actually, Mi Jin left more than half a month ago. Actually, I¡¯ve been looking for him. You really can¡¯t blame me for this¡­¡± Mi Gang was afraid that Si Fan would do something to him, so he quickly begged for mercy. ¡°The last time I tried to cause trouble for Mi Jin, I was beaten up. The most important thing is that I don¡¯t know who hit me. There were no surveillance cameras nearby. After I was injured, I was hospitalized for a week. President Si, I really did my best. You can¡¯t blame me!¡±


    ¡°President Si, then shouldn¡¯t you¡­¡± Mi Gang wanted to say something, but Si Fan lost his patience and hung up.


    From the looks of it, in order to obtain Mi Jin¡¯s cooperation, Yin Xun helped Mi Jin save Chen Meng, and the two of them planned to gang up on him.


    However, there was one thing that Si Fan could not understand. He did not have any conflict with Yin Xun, but why had Yin Xun been going against him since they first met?


    Xintao Company.


    Yin Xun saw that Mi Jin had sent the message to Si Fan according to her request and was instantly satisfied. She looked at the time. The Zhenku press conference was about to begin. She should leave.


    ¡°I¡¯ll leave the rest to you. Call me if there¡¯s anything you can¡¯t resolve. Can you handle it yourself?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mi Jin nodded. ¡°If it¡¯s a procedural problem, then I¡¯m fine. But if it¡¯s another problem, I might not be able to solve it. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll call you if there¡¯s a problem.¡±


    ¡°Not bad, not bad. Continue to work hard and make money for me. I¡¯ll leave first.¡± Yin Xun waved goodbye to Mi Jin.


    However, before Yin Xun left, she suddenly thought of a problem. She turned around and added, ¡°No, it shouldn¡¯t be making money for me. It should be making money for us. You can do it. I¡¯ll go to the phone conference and try to increase the popularity of our website.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin suddenly found it funny. For a moment, he did not know what to say, so he could only agree. ¡°Okay.¡±


    The phone press conference was held at a hotel in the city center. When Yin Xun arrived, the press conference had yet to begin.


    If she had known that it would be so easy for Mi Jin to resolve the cyberattack, she would not have stayed there to watch.


    ¡°Xun, you¡¯re here too?¡±


    Yin Xun was thinking about her battle with Si Fan when she suddenly heard someone calling her.

 Chapter 179 - 179 Find Some Peace And Quiet

    179 Find Some Peace And Quiet


    Yin Xun followed the voice and saw that Yin Cheng was also there. Yin Xun was a little surprised and walked toward Yin Cheng. Seeing that there was an empty seat beside him, she sat beside Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Dad, today is Si Fan¡¯s birthday. Why didn¡¯t you go?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    According to Yin Mo¡¯s personality, she would definitely ask Yin Cheng to go over to show Si Fan some respect. According to how much Yin Cheng doted on his daughter, he would definitely agree to her request.


    Unexpectedly, not only did Yin Cheng not go there, he even came to the Zhenku conference. This was not normal.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s expression did not look too good. He looked at Yin Xun sadly and said, ¡°I planned to go. But when I was about to arrive, I certainly was not expecting you to make such a big commotion. Suddenly, advertisements for your new company were everywhere. I knew immediately that you were going to fight with the Blue Fox Corporation. How can I go over at a time like this? They will definitely pester me to ask what¡¯s going on. Then, your sister will complain to me. I can¡¯t stand it. Anyway, I¡¯m already out here, so I came here to find some peace and quiet.¡±


    ¡°Didn¡¯t Yin Mo look for you?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows and asked.


    She could tell that although Yin Cheng was exasperated by the turn of events, he did not blame her.


    Yin Cheng was probably just a little helpless about this matter and was afraid that Yin Mo would look for him. After all, Yin Mo only had Si Fan in her heart. She would interfere in anything that was unfavorable to Si Fan.


    Yin Cheng said helplessly, ¡°Why didn¡¯t you look for her? She called me a few times and said that you were deliberately targeting her. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve already explained things on your behalf. I said that you wanted to do this business in the first place. I¡¯ll try my best not to interfere in the matters between the two of you. Otherwise, it won¡¯t be good to help either of you.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°She also went to my new company to look for me. It seems like she cares a lot about this matter.¡±


    ¡°Oh right, why are you at this press conference? Your new company just opened today. Shouldn¡¯t you be in the company?¡± Yin Cheng sighed and finally reacted.


    ¡°Me?¡± Yin Xun smiled. ¡°You¡¯ll know later.¡±


    Yin Cheng nodded. He looked at the time and saw that there was still some time before the press conference began.


    ¡°Xun, your advertisements are everywhere. You must have spent a lot of money. Is it a good idea?¡± Yin Cheng asked with concern.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Of course, it¡¯s only the first day today, but our turnover has already exceeded our expectations. Not only that, but the registration of new users has also exceeded our expectations. Although we¡¯re incurring losses now, if we maintain this momentum, we¡¯ll quickly make up for the losses.¡±


    When he heard Yin Xun say that she was incurring losses, Yin Cheng frowned slightly. However, when he heard Yin Xun say that she would make up for it soon, his brows immediately relaxed.


    It was not that he was afraid of losing a little money, but this was Yin Xun¡¯s first time starting a business. If the losses were too serious, he was afraid that it would affect her confidence.


    Yin Xun noticed the change in Yin Cheng¡¯s expression, but she was not in a hurry to explain. Instead, she continued to tell Yin Cheng the data from the many websites.


    Yin Cheng was a real estate professional and did not know much about the Internet. Moreover, he was old and usually did not pay attention to Internet-related matters, so he did not quite understand what Yin Xun was saying.


    He could only tell that Yin Xun was very satisfied with today¡¯s effect.


    After Yin Xun finished the explanations, Yin Cheng frowned and asked hesitantly, ¡°Xun, do you and Si Fan really have to go at each other to this extent?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I¡¯m not deliberately targeting Si Fan. I¡¯m just doing what I want to do,¡± Yin Xun said indifferently. ¡°Besides, the world is so big. It¡¯s normal for us to open the same kind of company. Everyone should compete fairly. Moreover, with such a large market share, there are many types after refinement. It won¡¯t be a problem to open a few more companies.¡±


    Yin Cheng was stunned for a moment. Yin Xun was right. Just like real estate, there were many different types. Now that there were so many real estate companies, their profits were still bursting.


    However, although what Yin Xun said made sense, he was still very worried about something.


    After thinking for a moment, Yin Cheng said, ¡°Although what you said makes sense, I¡¯m afraid that the misunderstanding between the two of you will deepen because of this matter. No parent would want to see their child¡¯s relationship become like this. We don¡¯t want to be biased. We don¡¯t even know who to help when we see you quarrel.¡±

 Chapter 180 - 180 He’s Here Too

    180 He¡¯s Here Too


    Yin Xun comforted him. ¡°Dad, they say children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Don¡¯t worry about us. If Yin Mo is sensible, she will understand this. If not, then even if I don¡¯t open a company now, there will be other things in the future. She will still be angry with me in the end. So, we just have to do what we have to do. I didn¡¯t use any shady methods to harm others. It¡¯s fair and square. There¡¯s no need to give in to him.¡±


    ¡°Forget it, I don¡¯t care anymore. This is between you sisters.¡± Yin Cheng smiled bitterly. He knew that he could not win against Yin Xun. After all, what she said made sense.


    He looked to the side and his eyes lit up. He said to Yin Xun, ¡°I saw an old friend. I¡¯ll go over and take a look. Wait for me here.¡±


    Yin Cheng left after saying that. Yin Xun sat there and waited for him. She took out her phone to see if Mi Jin was looking for her.


    There was no news on her phone, so Yin Xun put it back in her pocket with relief.


    Suddenly, Yin Xun felt a shadow above her head. Then, someone sat down beside her. She turned around and her eyes lit up. It was Fang Yao.


    Yin Xun smiled and asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you were going to Si Fan¡¯s club to attend his birthday party today? Why are you here?¡±


    Fang Yao said calmly, ¡°Looks like Si Fan is very busy today. He left for a while and we didn¡¯t see him again. I heard from the club staff that he went back to the company. Before he left, I wanted to see him, but I was rejected. He must be in a bad mood.¡±


    ¡°It would be strange if he was in a good mood today,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Fang Yao caught something else from Yin Xun¡¯s words. He raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡°What? From what you¡¯re saying, you¡¯ve done something else to him?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. He did not expect Fang Yao to be able to guess this.


    She said calmly, ¡°Si Fan got his hackers to attack my website. Fortunately, Mi Jin was strong enough to defend against all of them alone. Not only did he defend against Si Fan¡¯s hackers, but he also gave Si Fan a gift. I think Si Fan must know by now that Mi Jin is helping me and he¡¯s thinking about how to deal with Mi Jin.¡±


    ¡°From the looks of it, you¡¯ve already thought of a solution?¡± Fang Yao asked with a smile.


    ¡°Of course, I only fight prepared battles. As long as he dares to attack, I¡¯ll take the opportunity to trick him. He asked for it,¡± Yin Xun said confidently.


    ¡°To be honest, I¡¯m actually quite looking forward to it. It¡¯s usually too boring around here. It¡¯s not bad to watch commercial battles.¡± Fang Yao also liked to watch the fun, especially when it involved people like Si Fan.


    ¡°Then what do you think of the commotion I caused today? Isn¡¯t it lively?¡± Yin Xun asked proudly.


    ¡°Not bad,¡± Fang Yao commented. ¡°However, you made such a big fuss on the first day. You must have already been hated by Si Fan. In the future, you have to pay special attention to Si Fan¡¯s actions. A person like him is ruthless. I wonder what he will do.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes flashed. She put on an innocent expression and said, ¡°Even if I don¡¯t start a new company, he won¡¯t let me off. Because he has always wanted the Yin family¡¯s assets. When I came back, especially when I snatched one of his businesses, he has long treated me as a thorn in his side.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°That¡¯s why you did this with this much fanfare. In fact, you¡¯ve long decided to fall out with him. Moreover, you did this mainly to pull him along to burn money with you.¡±


    ¡°It depends on what he thinks about burning money. Actually, I won¡¯t be snatching any business from him when I start an online company because our development direction is different. However, with his petty personality, if he can¡¯t help but burn money with me, he can¡¯t blame me if things go south. He can only blame himself for not being strong enough and being provoked so easily¡­¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and said with a smile, ¡°But don¡¯t worry. Although Si Fan and I are fighting an economic war, I promise that I won¡¯t lose too much. It won¡¯t be long before I¡¯ll earn the money to repay you. Moreover, the profits will double so that you can make a huge profit.¡±


    Now, Yin Xun wanted to lure Si Fan into burning money with her. To her, this was just the beginning. She still had many ways to deal with Si Fan in the future.


    If Si Fan just ignored her, he would not make a loss and would be able to continue making money normally.


    Once Si Fan fell for her bait, his future development would no longer be within his control.

 Chapter 181 - 181 I Want A Present

    181 I Want A Present


    Although the Blue Fox Company was more mature than Xintao and had more financial resources, they could not counter the fact that Yin Xun had a big shot like Fang Yao behind him. What Fang Yao did not lack the least was money. On the other hand, Si Fan had already lost a source of funds, Xing Cheng, and his financial resources had been greatly reduced. The people behind him would not want to burn money with him.


    In the end, Si Fan would be the first to collapse. As long as the Blue Fox Corporation fell, Si Fan would never be able to make a comeback.


    ¡°Oh right, you haven¡¯t said anything yet. Why are you here at the phone launch? Did Zhang Yi invite you over? He really has a lot of connections. To think he invited you as well,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes flashed. He looked at Yin Xun and said seriously, ¡°He didn¡¯t invite me. I knew you were coming, so I came.¡±


    !!


    ¡°Did I tell you that I¡¯m coming?¡± Yin Xun frowned and thought about it. She had been too busy recently and had forgotten.


    However, from this, it could be seen that Fang Yao was really a good business partner. He attended the phone press conference with her. It was really touching.


    Fang Yao kept staring at Yin Xun, wanting to see her reaction after hearing what he said.


    However, Yin Xun did not react. Fang Yao was a little disappointed. It seemed that he could not beat around the bush with Yin Xun. Otherwise, she would not understand.


    ¡°I¡¯ve helped you so much recently. Do you have a gift you plan to give me?¡± Fang Yao asked directly.


    ¡°That¡¯s true. Our success is all thanks to your financial support. When I go back, I¡¯ll think long and hard about what¡¯s best for you,¡± Yin Xun said seriously.


    Hearing Yin Xun mention this, Fang Yao suddenly had a bad feeling. He suddenly thought of the gift Yin Xun gave him a few days ago. She actually gave him a large table.


    He carefully recalled the things she had given him: light bulbs, massage beds, tables, curtains, and so on. They were all household items. Fang Yao had no doubt that Yin Xun was dissatisfied with the furnishings of his current room, so she renovated it according to her own aesthetic taste.


    Now, other than the floor and ceiling, almost everything else in the room was given to him by Yin Xun. He really did not want such a gift anymore. Yin Xun really treated him as nothing but a business partner.


    After some thought, Fang Yao said seriously, ¡°I want flowers.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and was about to nod in agreement when Fang Yao spoke again.


    ¡°I don¡¯t want fake flowers. I want real flowers.¡± Based on Fang Yao¡¯s understanding of Yin Xun, it was very likely that she would give him fake flowers just because they would not wither.


    Yin Xun promised Fang Yao solemnly, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I definitely won¡¯t give you fake flowers. Fake flowers are for dead people. It¡¯s not good for living people to use them¡­¡±


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­¡±


    He did not understand what Yin Xun meant, but as long as Yin Xun did not give him fake flowers, it was fine.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun helplessly. He had already made it so obvious, but Yin Xun still did not understand his thoughts.


    In fact, he had thought about saying it out loud, but looking at their current relationship, Fang Yao was afraid that if he really said it, Yin Xun would think that he had ulterior motives and distance herself from him.


    After thinking about it, Fang Yao gave up. After all, there would be many opportunities in the future. It was better to let Yin Xun feel better so that she would not be frightened.


    The two of them chatted for a while more. It was time for the press conference, so everyone returned to their seats.


    At this moment, Yin Xun¡¯s stomach suddenly growled. At this moment, the venue was very quiet, and Fang Yao, who was sitting beside him, heard it.


    ¡°Hungry?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and asked.


    Yin Xun nodded awkwardly and said, ¡°I only had porridge this morning. I¡¯ve been busy with the company¡¯s matters this afternoon. After I was done there, I had to attend the press conference, so I haven¡¯t had time to eat.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded and suddenly took out a small box of snacks and handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°This is for you. I happen to have some snacks here.¡±


    When Yin Xun saw the snacks, she was instantly happy. Disregarding her manners, she took them directly and said, ¡°You actually brought food with you!¡±


    ¡°Yes, although it¡¯s rather meager, it can fill your stomach. Eat some of it first. After the press conference is over, I¡¯ll take you to eat something better. I heard that there¡¯s a restaurant nearby that serves delicious food. I¡¯ve wanted to try it for a long time, but I haven¡¯t had the chance. Do you want to go later?¡± Fang Yao chuckled.


    He knew that Yin Xun was easily hungry. There were many things on her agenda today, so she definitely would not have much time to eat. As such, he had prepared this.


    ¡°Sure!¡± Yin Xun agreed readily.

 Chapter 182 - 182 He Actually Called Her Fat

    182 He Actually Called Her Fat


    At this moment, the press conference began. As the big screen lit up, melodious music sounded throughout the hall. Yin Xun looked at Zhang Yi, who had walked up to the podium, and opened the packet of snacks in her hand, planning to take this opportunity to eat a few mouthfuls.


    However, just as she opened the packaging and was about to put the food into her mouth, a hand suddenly reached out from the side and took the snack away.


    Someone actually dared to snatch food from her!


    Yin Xun wheeled around and was about to demand to know who the shameless food-snatcher was, but when he saw the person beside her, she immediately gulped down the words she was about to say.


    She even whispered weakly, ¡°Dad, you¡¯re back.¡±


    ¡°Mmm, Xun, you really are Daddy¡¯s little darling. You knew that Daddy was hungry, so you brought food here, right? How considerate of you,¡± Yin Cheng said as he finished the snacks in his hand in two to three bites. After eating, he even added, ¡°It¡¯s quite delicious, though a little sweet.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Her stomach growled again.


    Fortunately, there was still another portion in the box. Yin Xun was afraid that Yin Cheng would snatch it away again, so she quickly took it out and made to eat it. However, she underestimated Yin Cheng¡¯s speed. The moment she took it out, Yin Cheng snatched it from her again.


    ¡°Daddy is super hungry. I¡¯ll eat this too. Look at you, you¡¯re much fatter than before. You can go hungry for a while and think of it as losing weight.¡± After Yin Cheng comforted Yin Xun, he swiftly popped the food into his mouth.


    After eating, he commented, ¡°This one is very fragrant. It¡¯s not that sweet, but it doesn¡¯t taste as good. The first one was better.¡±


    Yin Xun stared straight at Yin Cheng and looked at the bag in his hand. She could not help but gulp.


    These were her snacks. There were only two portions in total. It was one thing if Yin Cheng ate them, but he actually still looked dissatisfied. Was he deliberately trying to anger her? Was this how a father should behave? He was snatching food from his daughter.


    Most importantly, Yin Cheng actually said that she was fat!


    Was she?


    Yin Xun immediately reached out to touch her face. It did feel a little chubby. She quickly took out her phone and used the screen as a mirror to look at herself. How was she fat? Was she not quite thin?


    Recently, she had been going to Fang Yao¡¯s house every day for a free meal. Not only was it all her favorite dishes, but the two of them would also often have supper. The supper was always roasted meat.


    Could it be because of this that she gained weight?


    Yin Xun¡¯s good mood from angering Si Fan was instantly shattered by Yin Cheng¡¯s words. Now, Yin Xun¡¯s mind was filled with the thought of ¡®I¡¯ve become fat¡¯.


    When Fang Yao saw Yin Xun¡¯s angry expression, he thought that she was annoyed because her food had been snatched away. He touched his forehead helplessly.


    He had specially brought these snacks for Yin Xun. Before he came, he did not know that Yin Cheng would be here too. If he had, he would have brought another box for him.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng sadly. It would have been fine if she had chosen not to eat from the beginning, but she had smelled the fragrance of the snacks, so she was even hungrier than before.


    At this moment, Zhang Yi began to introduce the products on stage.


    Zhang Yi first introduced the dimensions of the phone, then praised the company¡¯s technology and prospects.


    Now that the serious matters have begun, Yin Xun stopped worrying about the snacks and whether she was fat or not and began to listen to Zhang Yi seriously. This was because she still had something to do later, so she had to be fully focused.


    After Zhang Yi introduced the phone and demonstrated it to everyone, he said mysteriously, ¡°Everyone, apart from introducing the performance of our phone today, I have something important to announce.¡±


    Zhang Yi chuckled and said, ¡°Xintao Company has been on the trending searches today. I¡¯m sure everyone has seen it. Why would I mention this new company? I¡¯m sure everyone here has already guessed it.¡±


    Everyone looked a little enlightened, but some were puzzled. Today was clearly a phone launch. What did it have to do with the other new company?


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao¡¯s expressions were calm, but Yin Cheng was puzzled. He approached Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Xun, you know Zhang Yi? Why did he suddenly mention your company¡¯s name? Could it be that the advertisements have spread to this press conference? How much did you spend?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. You¡¯ll find out soon. But let me tell you first, this isn¡¯t an advertisement, but the care of a business partner.¡±


    ¡®Business partner?¡¯

 Chapter 183 - 183 I’m The Junior

    183 I¡¯m The Junior


    Yin Cheng knew that Yin Xun was working with a phone dealer, but he did not know when she would go online. Every time he asked Yin Xun, the answer he got was ¡®Soon, soon¡¯.


    Now that he saw Yin Xun¡¯s reaction and heard Zhang Yi¡¯s words, he could roughly guess that Yin Xun¡¯s software was about to go online.


    Zhang Yi continued, ¡°Xintao Company is very popular today, so I plan to ride on this popularity.¡±


    Zhang Yi picked up the phone in front of him and turned it on. At the same time, the contents of the phone appeared on the big screen behind him. Xintao¡¯s software was at the top of the phone page. The icon design was very unique, and everyone below the stage could see it.


    ¡°Xintao is a multifunctional software. It takes up little memory and is smooth and simple. It can add friends to chat with, share daily life, and also shop. Such a convenient app can be experienced directly on our latest flagship machine in the future. All customers who buy our flagship machine will be given special coupons. Of course, if you don¡¯t plan to shop, you can also convert the coupons into cash according to the corresponding ratio¡­¡±


    Initially, when Zhang Yi said that there were coupons, the people below the stage did not have much of a reaction because many merchants would send coupons to rope in customers. This was a marketing plan and was nothing special. However, when they heard that coupons could be converted into cash, everyone was shocked.


    Yin Cheng was also shocked. He looked at Yin Xun with his mouth wide open for a long time before speaking.


    ¡°Xun, how much money did you invest in this project? It¡¯s not enough to simply get a coupon, you can actually exchange it for cash too? Do you know how much money you will lose this way?¡± Yin Cheng asked in surprise.


    Although he knew that his eldest daughter had always been very smart and strategic, Yin Xun was still young and inexperienced in society. If she relied on the Fang family¡¯s support now and splurged, in the end, the Fang family would not support her and suddenly withdraw their investment. At that time, Yin Xun would suffer.


    Thinking of this, he quickly reminded Yin Xun, ¡°Xun, although I know you want to start a new company well, there¡¯s one thing you have to remember. It¡¯s normal to invest in the early stages, but this investment must be within your limits. Otherwise, you will definitely suffer in the end.¡±


    Of course, Yin Xun knew that Yin Cheng was worried about her, so he quickly comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what I¡¯m doing. I won¡¯t lose out. Dad, I¡¯ll explain it to you after the press conference.¡±


    After Yin Xun comforted Yin Cheng, she gestured for him to listen to Zhang Yi first.


    While Yin Xun and Yin Cheng were talking, Zhang Yi had already finished introducing Xintao.


    ¡°Let me tell everyone a piece of good news. The CEO of Xintao is also here today. Next, let¡¯s invite her up to answer everyone¡¯s questions.¡± After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he looked in Yin Xun¡¯s direction and gestured for her to go on stage.


    ¡°Wow, there¡¯s actually something that concerns you here,¡± Yin Cheng said in surprise.


    Yin Xun nodded and went on stage.


    As soon as she left her seat, Yin Cheng looked to the side in boredom. Suddenly, he saw Fang Yao beside him. Yin Cheng looked at Fang Yao and felt that the man looked more and more familiar.


    Fang Yao felt Yin Cheng¡¯s gaze and shifted his gaze away from Yin Xun. He looked at Yin Cheng and greeted him with a smile, ¡°Hello, Uncle Yin.¡±


    ¡°You, you are¡­ Young Master Fang?¡± Yin Cheng looked at Fang Yao in surprise.


    Fang Yao smiled and nodded. ¡°Uncle Yin, I¡¯m the junior here. You can just call me by my name.¡±


    ¡°What an honor. I didn¡¯t expect to meet you here. Could it be that the Fang family has also invested in the Zhenku phone?¡± Yin Cheng asked. However, after saying that, Yin Cheng realized that his question was not a good thing to ask. It involved the privacy of another company.


    ¡°Well, I¡¯m just asking. If it bothers you, you don¡¯t have to answer.¡± The Fang family was an existence that Yin Cheng could not afford to offend. If Fang Yao had not greeted him first, he would have pretended not to see him and would not have spoken. It would be bad if he said something wrong.


    However, since Fang Yao greeted him first, he had no choice but to start a conversation.


    ¡°Uncle Yin, I¡¯m not here today to work with Zhenku. We don¡¯t have any business dealings. I¡¯m just here to join in the fun.¡± Fang Yao smiled faintly.

 Chapter 184 - 184 Did Not Hear Yin Xun Speak

    184 Did Not Hear Yin Xun Speak


    Yin Cheng thought that Fang Yao would not answer him, so he was surprised by the reply. He replied quickly, ¡°Oh, oh, so that¡¯s how it is. So you also like to watch things like this.¡±


    The two of them started to chat casually. Yin Cheng used to think that Fang Yao was a cold and arrogant person because many of the Fang family members were not easy to get along with. He had interacted with them before.


    He did not expect Fang Yao to be so humble and polite. Yin Cheng¡¯s first impression of him was very good.


    Yin Cheng was still thinking about how to continue talking to Fang Yao when he suddenly remembered what Yin Xun had told him back then. Yin Xun had said that she had pulled Fang Yao over as an investor. Now that he saw Fang Yao sitting beside Yin Xun, Yin Cheng suddenly had a thought, but he was not sure.


    !!


    ¡°Uncle Yin, are you free this weekend?¡± Fang Yao asked Yin Cheng with a smile.


    Yin Cheng was stunned for a moment before he immediately understood what Fang Yao meant. It was probably because he was working with Yin Xun and was concerned. He wanted to talk to him about investment. After all, they were all businessmen. Benefits were the most important.


    ¡°I have time. What¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    Fang Yao smiled faintly and said, ¡°If Uncle Yin is free, I would like to invite you and Yin Xun for a meal. I wonder if you would like to come.¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Cheng in shock and said in surprise, ¡°You want to have a meal with me? I¡¯m fine with that, but it¡¯s not you who¡¯s treating, but it¡¯ll be me. I heard from Xun that you invested a large sum of money in her and helped her a lot. Logically speaking, I should have treated you to a meal long ago, but I¡¯ve been busy recently, so I didn¡¯t have the chance.¡±


    Everyone knew how to put on a show. Yin Cheng had been in the business world for a long time, so he was even more comfortable with such words.


    He knew that Fang Yao was just asking out of courtesy and had no intention of treating him to a meal. Yin Cheng had no intention of going, nor did he intend to treat Fang Yao to a meal either.


    However, he did not expect Fang Yao to be so frank.


    When he heard that Yin Cheng wanted to treat him to a meal, he immediately agreed. ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll have to trouble Uncle Yin.¡±


    Yin Cheng, ¡°¡­¡±


    He was speaking casually. He did not expect this child to be so honest. However, Yin Xun said that Fang Yao had indeed helped her a lot. Since he was coming over, he would treat him to a meal. He could also take the opportunity to see Fang Yao¡¯s character.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s settled then. The food outside isn¡¯t good. Why don¡¯t you come to my house?¡± Yin Cheng said.


    Fang Yao nodded in agreement. Then, he suddenly thought of something and asked Yin Cheng with a serious expression, ¡°Uncle Yin, I heard from Yin Xun that you want to build a shopping mall in the wasteland nearby?¡±


    Yin Cheng nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Xun told me about that piece of land. She went to take a look and realized that a new community is being built there. There¡¯s also a tube-shaped building next door. In the future, it will be demolished and developed. That piece of land is in a good location and is very suitable for building malls.¡±


    He did not expect Yin Xun to even tell Fang Yao about this. However, Yin Cheng was not worried¡ªwith the Fang family¡¯s strength, they would not be interested in such a small matter.


    Fang Yao said calmly, ¡°Uncle, I suggest you be careful. There¡¯s something wrong with that piece of land. If you build a mall, some things may happen to it in the future.¡±


    That piece of land was discovered by Yin Xun when she went to look for Wang Ran. She had already looked around personally. The geographical location was very good, but she did not know much about other things because time was tight at that time.


    Yin Cheng was planning to go and take a look soon. When he heard Fang Yao say that there was a problem, he was shocked. Fortunately, he had not made a move yet. No matter what happened, there was still time for him to turn around.


    He moved closer to Fang Yao and asked, ¡°Fang Yao, what¡¯s wrong with that piece of land?¡±


    Because there was a seat between him and Fang Yao, there was some distance. Yin Cheng felt uncomfortable talking like this, so he sat in Yin Xun¡¯s seat to talk to Fang Yao.


    ¡°The ownership of the land wasn¡¯t settled when it was demolished. There was a dispute, and there are still a few houses there. If you want to build a mall, the first thing you have to do is to solve the problem of those tenants¡­¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Yin Cheng listened to Fang Yao talk about the problem of the land. The more he listened, the stronger the chill in his heart became. Fortunately, he had not started preparing yet. Otherwise, from the looks of it, he would definitely lose a lot of money.


    The two of them had been discussing something and did not listen to what Yin Xun said on stage.


    After speaking for a while, Yin Xun walked down from the stage and wanted to return to her seat. However, she realized that her seat was occupied by Yin Cheng. She did not know what Yin Cheng was talking to Fang Yao about, but he seemed to be so cheerful that he even sat next to Fang Yao.

 Chapter 185 - 185 A Big Boss Is Supporting Me

    185 A Big Boss Is Supporting Me


    ¡°Dad, why are you sitting in my seat?¡± Yin Xun asked helplessly.


    She did not expect Yin Cheng to be so familiar with him. It was only their first meeting, but they were already so close to each other.


    The last time she asked Yin Cheng if he wanted to meet Fang Yao, Yin Cheng was afraid that he would say something wrong and offend Fang Yao, so he rejected her offer. She did not expect the two of them to meet today like this. It did not look like it was the first time they met at all. Instead, it looked like they had been friends for many years.


    ¡°Xun, sit with me for now. I have something to tell Fang Yao.¡± Yin Cheng did not even spare a look at Yin Xun. He kept staring at Fang Yao, wanting to continue chatting with him.


    !!


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun, who was standing beside Yin Cheng, and suddenly felt helpless. If he had known that Yin Cheng would not leave him alone, he would not have discussed this matter with Yin Cheng right now. He should have waited until they had dinner together.


    ¡°Uncle, if you have any more questions, you can wait for us to have dinner together. I still have something to discuss with Yin Xun. It¡¯s about the collaboration.¡± Fang Yao knew that this was the only way to make Yin Cheng give up his seat.


    Sure enough, when he heard that Fang Yao wanted to talk to Yin Xun, Yin Cheng quickly stepped aside. ¡°Okay, okay, you guys talk.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng helplessly before returning to her seat.


    ¡°We¡¯ve already completed the first step. We¡¯re advertising and working with the phone company. There¡¯s still something very important to do next. We still need to plan our future publicity work and development direction. That¡¯s what I think¡­¡± Yin Xun tilted her body and moved closer to Fang Yao.


    Due to the noise in the venue, Fang Yao could not hear Yin Xun¡¯s words, so he moved closer to her so that he could hear her clearly.


    After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s opinion, he smiled and nodded. ¡°Your idea is very good. Don¡¯t worry about it and do it boldly. I¡¯m not worried about your capability.¡±


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s praise, Yin Xun actually felt a little embarrassed. She joked, ¡°You¡¯re so confident in me now. What if I make a mistake in the future and lose money?¡±


    ¡°No, I really think your idea is good. Go ahead and do it. If I think your method is unreliable, I¡¯ll let you know,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°Alright, since I have a big shot behind me, I can plow on without worry.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her hand to her chin. She tilted her head slightly and said, ¡°Si Fan isn¡¯t as lucky as me. I have a reliable helper, but he¡¯s fighting alone. I can¡¯t imagine how he¡¯s reacting now. He should know that I¡¯m here to attend the phone launch.¡±


    Actually, what Yin Xun was most curious about now was how Si Fan would welcome this business war. If he did not spend time on it and performed as usual, he would not incur losses. At most, he would earn less because of the user distribution.


    After all, Si Fan¡¯s shopping software could be downloaded by anyone. At the moment, the Xintao software could only be used by buying a Zhenku flagship phone. With this restriction, Si Fan did not have to worry about distribution at all.


    Only rich people would buy a new phone for one software. Ordinary people would not do such a thing. Most of the people who used the shopping software were ordinary people, so Si Fan still had a large number of old users.


    However, Si Fan was currently throwing a tantrum. As for whether he could notice this, Yin Xun did not know. Yin Xun was really curious if Si Fan would compete with her in burning money in a fit of rage.


    Yin Cheng had been observing Yin Xun and Fang Yao from the side. Seeing that the two of them were talking intimately and seemed to be very familiar with each other, their relationship did not seem to be that of simple business partners. Instead, it seemed like¡­


    He seemed to have discovered something incredible, and he could not help but look at Fang Yao with some scrutiny. Although he wanted Yin to find a boyfriend who could take care of her, any boyfriend of hers had to be outstanding enough.


    The excellence here did not just refer to one¡¯s family background. It also depended on one¡¯s natural ability.


    Although the Fang family was rich enough, he did not know Fang Yao well. He did not know what this person was like, so he could not trust him with Yin Xun yet.


    Blue Fox Company.


    Si Fan gritted his teeth as he stared at his computer. At this moment, his computer was playing a live video of the Zhenku company. Yin Mo was sitting beside the CEO, and her expression did not look too swell.


    ¡°How many more things did Yin Xun plan that I don¡¯t know about?¡± Si Fan suppressed his anger and said in a low voice.

 Chapter 186 - 186 I’m More Aggrieved Than You

    186 I¡¯m More Aggrieved Than You


    Today was his birthday. Originally, he had planned to use today to expand his connections and perhaps rope in a few investors. However, this plan was foiled by Yin Xun. Yin Xun¡¯s online company opened without warning. She even advertised so much that it even reached his company.


    If he was not mistaken, Yin Xun had also asked Mi Jin for help, so he could not stop her with his hackers¡ªhe had even been made a fool of by Yin Xun.


    Initially, he thought that the matter would end like this. After all, Yin Xun had just opened for business and her foundation was not strong enough. He would have plenty of opportunities to deal with Yin Xun in the future. He did not expect Yin Mo to come just now and tell him that Yin Xun had also gone to attend the Zhenku phone launch.


    He thought that Yin Xun was only invited as a guest, but in the end, she was actually the main character of this press conference.


    Through this collaboration, Xintao¡¯s popularity increased a little, and Yin Xun snatched many users. He did not understand how Yin Xun could have completed the website so quickly and even released it with the Zhenku flagship model.


    What made him most confused was that at the banquet the other night, the Zhenku boss had clearly wanted to collaborate with him. At that time, he even offered to pass their information to his assistant. How did it end up with a collaboration with Yin Xun?


    It seemed that Yin Xun had poached him halfway down the line.


    The more Si Fan thought about it, the angrier he became. The Blue Fox Company was also working on the phone-side software, but they had only finished half of it after studying the subject for a few months. He did not expect Yin Xun¡¯s Xintao to be launched online first. She must have done it on purpose.


    Si Fan recalled the hatred between him and Yin Xun. Other than matters related to Xing Cheng, the two of them had not interacted much. It was unlikely that Yin Xun would sacrifice so much just to attack him.


    Could it be that Yin Xun had vented all her anger toward Xing Cheng on him? He quickly rejected this idea because Yin Mo was the one who started that. It had nothing to do with him.


    Since it was neither, it meant that Yin Xun had deliberately launched a sneak attack and was competing against him maliciously.


    In a fit of anger, Si Fan picked up the keyboard and tore the thread apart. Then, he threw the whole thing to the ground. After throwing the keyboard, he haphazardly threw everything else on the table to the ground to vent the anger in his heart.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you would help me deal with this? Why are there no results? Not just that, your sister even stabbed me in the back!¡± Si Fan tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and spoke to Yin Mo in a light tone.


    He knew that Yin Mo was very important to him now because he still needed to use Yin Mo¡¯s identity to deal with Yin Xun.


    Yin Mo was shocked by Si Fan¡¯s actions and stammered, ¡°Fan, I went to talk to her, b-but Sister didn¡¯t listen to me. She said that this was a fair competition¡­¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry.


    When Si Fan saw her expression, he was even more annoyed. He said impatiently, ¡°Don¡¯t show me that expression. I¡¯m more aggrieved than you are now. Can you help me or not? If you can¡¯t, go back. I¡¯ll think of a way myself.¡±


    ¡°No, I can definitely help you. Fan, y-you have to believe me. I¡¯ll go and ask my father for help now¡­¡± Yin Mo promised Si Fan and stood up to leave.


    When Si Fan saw Yin Mo leave, he did not stop her. He only prayed that Yin Mo could really help him.


    Si Fan turned around and wanted to throw something on the table again, but there was nothing else on it except the computer. Seeing that there was nothing else to throw, he took a deep breath and took out his phone to call Cheng She.


    ¡°Cheng She, contact the media and write a draft immediately. Tell them that Yin Xun¡¯s Xintao Company hired a plagiarist as an employee. That plagiarist is ungrateful and has betrayed the trust of their previous boss to steal the former company¡¯s business secrets. Write down the fact that Mi Jin has served prison time and the details of the court¡¯s judgment. Use them all. I want Yin Xun¡¯s reputation to be ruined!¡±


    ¡°Alright, CEO Si,¡± Cheng She said. After hanging up, he immediately went to do this.


    After Si Fan finished giving his instructions, he continued to read the information related to Yin Xun. Not long after, Si Fan received Cheng She¡¯s reply.


    ¡°How is it? Have you settled everything?¡± Si Fan asked coldly.


    ¡°Um, CEO Si, I¡¯m afraid we can¡¯t do that. If we do, then we¡­¡± Cheng She paused for a moment before continuing,¡± If we publish this manuscript, the person whose reputation will be ruined might be you¡­¡±

 Chapter 187 - 187 Afraid Of Yin Xun

    187 Afraid Of Yin Xun


    ¡°What did you say?!¡± Si Fan said angrily.


    What did he mean by his reputation would be ruined? He believed that he had done everything flawlessly. It was impossible for others to have any dirt on him. Besides, Mi Jin definitely did not know the truth. If he did, he would not have been imprisoned at that time.


    Cheng She hurriedly explained, ¡°President Si, I¡¯ve already sent the information to you. You¡¯ll understand why you can¡¯t blow this matter up after reading it.¡±


    Si Fan opened the email and realized that Cheng She had sent him the original document. It was signed by Mi Jin. The anger in his heart immediately surged again.


    !!


    He had asked Mi Gang to destroy this document a long time ago. Why was it here now, it had even been found by Mi Jin. What was going on? With this document, he could no longer threaten Mi Jin, and the charges against Mi Jin would be overturned if he went public with this.


    ¡°Just say that this document is fake. It¡¯s been so long. If he really had evidence, he wouldn¡¯t have confessed and let himself be sent to jail from the beginning. The fact that he only showed it now means that it¡¯s fake.¡± Si Fan was very angry at this moment. He even lost his rationality.


    ¡°President Si, don¡¯t be agitated,¡± Cheng She said. ¡°This document is real. You know what happened back then. Mi Jin wasn¡¯t his parents¡¯ biological child. He was adopted. Mi Jin was a loyal son. Back then, when his company¡¯s information was leaked, he wanted to call the police, but because his parents threatened to kill themselves, he gave up.¡±


    ¡°He was able to take out this document now because his adoptive parents are dead. That useless Mi Gang can¡¯t threaten him at all, so he no longer has any weaknesses. Once we blow this matter up, it will only benefit him in the end.¡±


    When Si Fan heard Cheng She¡¯s suggestion, he felt that what he said made sense, but he was unwilling.


    He thought for a moment and suddenly remembered that even if he did not mention the plagiarism incident, there was one other thing that could deal with him, and that was Mi Jin beating someone up and having served prison time.


    He could make the reporters write that Mi Jin was an ungrateful person. Back then, Si Fan had promoted Mi Jin to the moon, but he had been betrayed by Mi Jin. Mi Jin had been imprisoned twice and had committed so many crimes. These articles could snuff that guy out.


    With an idea in mind, Si Fan told Cheng She about it.


    In the end, Cheng She rejected it again.


    ¡°President Si, um, please take a look at the last page of the information. There¡¯s evidence to prove Mi Jin¡¯s innocence for what he did back then. He has even submitted this evidence to the court and is waiting for the court to prove his innocence.¡± Cheng She was on tenterhooks as he spoke, afraid that Si Fan would vent his anger on him.


    Upon hearing Cheng She¡¯s words, Si Fan quickly went to the last page of the document. Indeed, the last page was the written proof that Mi Jin had submitted to the court.


    Fear suddenly rose in Si Fan¡¯s heart. On his birthday, Xintao Corporation had opened for business. It was also Zhenku¡¯s phone release. The evidence of Mi Jin¡¯s crime back then had been overturned. So many things happened on the same day. It was obvious that Yin Xun had done it on purpose.


    He suddenly realized that he had underestimated Yin Xun¡¯s strength in the past. Yin Xun¡¯s plans were terrifyingly powerful. She seemed to have predicted every step he would take and even predicted that he would send hackers to attack her website. She even managed to defend in advance.


    It was unnerving. He suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness. How could he deal with Yin Xun?


    ¡°President Si, how should we deal with them now?¡± Cheng She asked.


    ¡°Deal with them, my *ss. How do you plan to go about this?¡± Si Fan snapped.


    ¡°Alright, just call me if you need anything else. I¡¯ll go do other work first.¡± Cheng She hung up the phone quickly after saying that. He did not want to continue being shouted at by Si Fan.


    After hanging up, Si Fan did not know what to do. He was so angry that he wanted to throw something again. He tried his best to suppress the frustration in his heart and called the head of the Development Department, Feng Shu, over.


    ¡°Have you seen the Zhenku press conference?¡± Si Fan asked coldly.


    Feng Shu had been busy with work. He did not know what Si Fan meant by this question. How could he watch a press conference during his working hours?


    Even if he watched it, he had to say that he did not see it. Otherwise, he would be considered neglecting his duty.

 Chapter 188 - 188 Men’s Affairs

    188 Men¡¯s Affairs


    Si Fan continued, ¡°Xintao¡¯s software has been completed and was launched today. It¡¯s even working with Zhenku. So¡­ when will our phone app be completed?¡±


    Feng Shu did not react to Si Fan¡¯s words. He did not know what kind of company Xintao was. He had never heard of it before. However, even if this company went online, what did it have to do with Blue Fox?


    However, he did not dare to ask Si Fan these questions. He could only answer, ¡°Our software will take at least two months to complete.¡±


    There were only three people in the development department. Recently, they had been forced by Si Fan to quickly work on the software. They did not even have time to slack off at work.


    !!


    Feng Shu thought that his speed of making software was already fast enough because making software was not just about researching it, but also about testing it.


    The worst enemy of software like this were bugs. It would be bad if it malfunctioned and deducted the user¡¯s money.


    Unexpectedly, Si Fan was so dissatisfied that he roared, ¡°What, two months?¡±


    ¡°President Si, there are too few people in our Development Department. Moreover, the software you want is too complex. This is already the fastest speed.¡± Feng Shu quickly explained when he saw that Si Fan was dissatisfied.


    ¡°No, it¡¯s too slow. I don¡¯t care what method you use. You have to complete it this week!¡± Si Fan instructed in a deep voice.


    Feng Shu was shocked by Si Fan¡¯s request. Two months of work had to be completed in a week? He was really treating people like animals. Feng Shu was also unhappy, but he did not dare to show it. He could only stand up for himself with a good temper.


    ¡°President Si, we have too few people. If it¡¯s just the three of us, we won¡¯t be able to do it even if we rush day and night. Can you recruit a few more people? Even if you recruit more, we still have to show the ropes to the newcomers. This deadline is still too rushed¡­¡±


    ¡°Trash, all of you are trash! The three of you took so long to complete one software, but Mi Jin completed this project alone. How are you so inferior to him? You also graduated from a famous university and have higher academic qualifications than him. Why are you so weak?!¡± Si Fan spat.


    Feng Shu said, ¡°President Si, we¡¯ve only heard of this name, but we don¡¯t know much about him. I heard that he¡¯s a genius. Of course, we can¡¯t compare to a genius.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t care if you¡¯re a genius or a fool. I just know that our time is tight. You¡¯re all professionals. How about this? I¡¯ll give you three more days. Ten days in total. I don¡¯t care what methods you use, but you have to finish it for me. Otherwise, the three of you can get lost!¡± At the end of Si Fan¡¯s sentence, there was nothing left for him to throw to vent his anger, so he took out his phone and smashed it on the ground.


    He did not know when it started, but this had become a problem for him. He had to smash something to vent his anger. Otherwise, he would feel terrible.


    Feng Shu wanted to buy himself some more time, but when he saw that Si Fan was so angry that he threw his own phone, he knew that the boss had lost his mind. He could only agree and leave quickly.


    If he did not leave now, even he might be beaten up.


    While Si Fan was furious, Yin Xun, who was attending the press conference, was very satisfied with the results of the day. She was in a good mood as he chatted with Fang Yao.


    At this moment, the press conference had already ended. Zhang Yi came over with a smile and praised Yin Xun. The two of them were very satisfied with the results today.


    Yin Xun¡¯s Xin Tao used Zhenku¡¯s original user base to gain many loyal users. On the other hand, Zhenku attracted a new batch of users with the help of Yin Xun¡¯s limited software. This time, they had provided customers to each other.


    Everyone was in the field of business. Of course, if they could earn money, they were all family. Zhang Yi¡¯s attitude toward Yin Xun was really good.


    After the two of them finished flattering each other, Zhang Yi wanted to treat Yin Xun to a meal, but Yin Xun refused. After the two of them separated, Yin Xun returned to look for Yin Cheng.


    At this moment, Yin Cheng had gone to talk to Fang Yao again. It was impossible to tell what the two of them were talking about, but Yin Cheng looked very happy.


    When Yin Cheng saw Yin Xun walk over, he immediately shut his mouth and stopped talking to Fang Yao. What puzzled Yin Xun was that even Fang Yao¡¯s expression looked very abnormal.


    She could not help but wonder if the two of them were doing something behind her back. Their reaction was too strange.


    ¡°Dad, what were you talking about?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    ¡°This is a matter between us men. You¡¯re just a girl. Don¡¯t ask.¡± After Yin Cheng finished speaking, he glanced at Fang Yao. Fang Yao smiled and nodded. It seemed like he agreed with Yin Cheng¡¯s words.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    She was even more curious about what Yin Cheng and Fang Yao had talked about.

 Chapter 189 - 189 Eat Less Junk Food

    189 Eat Less Junk Food


    Just as Yin Xun was about to ask in detail, Yin Cheng beckoned her to the side.


    Yin Xun asked curiously, ¡°Dad, why are you being so mysterious?¡±


    Yin Cheng approached Yin Xun and whispered, ¡°Xun, what do you think of Fang Yao?¡±


    Yin Xun did not know why Yin Cheng suddenly asked this question. Her first thought was that there was a conflict between them just now. However, looking at how they were chatting earlier, they did not seem to be arguing. Instead, they looked more like good friends.


    !!


    ¡°He¡¯s excellent. He¡¯s helped me a lot in business. I would call him the best business partner ever.¡± Yin Xun praised the man sincerely.


    She was speaking from the bottom of her heart. Fang Yao had really helped her a lot, making her feel like she had met her biological brother.


    ¡°Just a business partner?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°That¡¯s right. Otherwise, what kind of relationship could we have? He can¡¯t be my long-lost brother, right?¡±


    Yin Cheng, ¡°¡­¡±


    Was that what she thought? Initially, Yin Cheng thought that Yin Xun was a perfect person. She was smart and strategic and always knew how to reassure him. Now, however, it seemed that Yin Xun had a flaw. She had no knowledge of relationships. He had already made such an obvious hint, but she still did not understand what he meant.


    In the past, he had promised not to meddle in Yin Xun¡¯s love life. He would only help her take a look at her partner¡¯s character.


    However, he had just chatted with Fang Yao and saw the intimate behavior between Fang Yao and Yin Xun. He had a hunch that there was something going on between the two of them, which was why he brought up the topic with her.


    Yin Cheng chose his words carefully before saying, ¡°What I¡¯m asking is, do you like him?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng strangely and asked, ¡°Of course, like him. He¡¯s so good to me and has helped me so much. How can I not like such a good person? Dad, why are you acting strange? What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°Forget it, it¡¯s fine. You can count on yourself in the future. I¡¯ve tried my best.¡± Yin Cheng was speechless when he heard Yin Xun¡¯s reply.


    It seemed that his daughter only saw Fang Yao as a business partner and had no other plans for him. What a pity. It would be great if such a good man could become the son-in-law of the Yin family.


    Looking at Yin Cheng¡¯s regretful expression, Yin Xun was puzzled. What was going on? Why did the atmosphere feel strange after Yin Cheng and Fang Yao finished chatting? Could it be that Fang Yao had said something to him?


    ¡°Dad, did Fang Yao say something to you? Did he threaten you?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    Yin Cheng waved his hand repeatedly. ¡°No, he just told me that there¡¯s something wrong with the land you recommended and told me to be careful.¡±


    ¡°I see. That day, I walked around the vicinity and didn¡¯t investigate carefully. Since he said that there was a problem, there must be something. You should investigate before deciding if you want to invest there.¡± Yin Xun was relieved. It turned out that Yin Cheng was only bringing up Fang Yao because of this.


    ¡°I¡¯ll go back first. You don¡¯t have to bother yourself.¡± Yin Cheng sighed and was about to leave. However, after taking two steps, he stopped and turned around to look at Yin Xun. ¡°In the future, drink less coke and eat fewer snacks. Look, you¡¯ve gained weight. It¡¯s not that gaining weight is bad, but I don¡¯t want you to gain weight by eating junk food. It¡¯s fine to gain weight by eating vegetables. Junk food is unhealthy.¡±


    After Yin Cheng finished speaking, he ignored Yin Xun¡¯s reaction and walked up to Fang Yao. After bidding him farewell, he left.


    Looking at Yin Cheng¡¯s back as he left, Yin Xun¡¯s mind was filled with what Yin Cheng had just said about her gaining weight. Apparently saying it once was not enough¡ªhe actually had to repeat it before he left. This was supposed to be her biological father!


    Yin Xun looked down at her arms and waist. Was she really that fat?


    It seemed that she had to pay attention to her diet in the future. She could not eat so much all the time.


    Fang Yao saw Yin Xun standing there in a daze and not moving at all. He walked over and asked in confusion, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. I¡¯m fine,¡± Yin Xun replied bitterly.


    ¡°Do you have anything else to do? Do you want to go back together?¡± Fang Yao¡¯s eyes darkened when he saw that something was wrong with Yin Xun.


    ¡°Sure,¡± Yin Xun agreed listlessly.


    After the two of them got into the car, Yin Xun¡¯s expression had been very dispirited. Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and his eyes flashed.


    He could tell that something was wrong after Yin Xun separated from her father. No, it was more accurate to say that something had been wrong since they came to the venue. It was just that it become worse recently.

 Chapter 190 - 190 What’s Wrong With Her?

    190 What¡¯s Wrong With Her?


    It seemed that Yin Xun was hiding something from him. What was it? It could actually cause Yin Xun, who had always been calm, to become like this.


    Fang Yao asked her a few more questions, but Yin Xun kept looking distracted, which made Fang Yao even more puzzled.


    He wondered if he had done something wrong to make Yin Xun unhappy.


    During the journey, Fang Yao had been reflecting on his actions. He recalled the conversations between the two of them and everything that had happened in the past few days. He did not feel that he had done anything wrong.


    Yin Xun was dejected all the way, while Fang Yao reflected on the past.


    Soon, the car arrived at the villa in the suburbs and stopped in front of the gate.


    Yin Xun opened the door and got out of the car. Because she was distracted, she forgot to look at the door. Just as she stepped out and was about to stand up, her head hit the door frame with a bang.


    ¡°Ah!¡± Yin Xun let out a low cry and covered her head. She finally came back to her senses.


    Fang Yao quickly got out of the car and walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side. He asked with concern, ¡°Why are you so careless? Are you alright?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. Thank you for sending me back. I¡¯ll go home first.¡± Yin Xun shook her head and prepared to go home.


    However, Fang Yao stopped her. ¡°The butler has prepared a lot of snacks today. He even specially prepared coconut chicken stew for you. Come and eat. You haven¡¯t eaten, right? You didn¡¯t even eat any snacks. You must be very hungry now.¡±


    Snacks? Yin Xun¡¯s stomach growled again when she heard that there was delicious food. She swallowed.


    At this moment, she was indeed very hungry and had not eaten for the entire day. She really wanted to have some food.


    However, when she thought of Yin Cheng saying that she had gained weight, she quickly rejected the offer. ¡°No, no, I¡¯m not eating anymore. I won¡¯t eat anymore in the future, either, so you don¡¯t have to invite me. You guys can eat by yourselves. Thank you. I¡¯ll go back.¡±


    Yin Xun sighed, then turned around and walked back to her house.


    Fang Yao, who was watching from behind, was baffled. Why was Yin Xun suddenly acting so strange?


    The dishes were all Yin Xun¡¯s favorites. A few days ago, Yin Xun also mentioned that she wanted those snacks. He had specially prepared them for Yin Xun today, but she did not want to eat them.


    ¡°Are the things I prepared not to your liking?¡± Fang Yao asked doubtfully.


    ¡°No, of course not.¡± Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao seemed to have misunderstood and quickly explained. ¡°I just¡­¡±


    She thought about it and did not finish her sentence.


    She could not possibly tell Fang Yao that she had gained weight because she had been freeloading at his house every day and had even been reprimanded by her father.


    If she said that, would that not sound like she was blaming him? It would be even worse if she said that.


    ¡°Then¡­ maybe I will follow you for dinner,¡± Yin Xun said tentatively.


    Hearing that Yin Xun had agreed to go to his house for dinner, Fang Yao finally relaxed a little. However, her behavior was still not normal.


    Yin Xun vowed that she would eat less today. As long as she did not eat too much, she would not gain much fat.


    Her mind filled with worry, Yin Xun followed Fang Yao back to his villa.


    When the butler saw Yin Xun, he warmly invited her to the dining room and then went to prepare the table.


    Fang Yao walked to the fridge and took out a bottle of iced cola, handing it to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun looked at the cola in front of her and hurriedly backed away. Her expression suggested she was facing a great enemy.


    Coke was a high-calorie drink. Drinking a bottle would make her gain a lot of weight. She could not touch such a thing in the future.


    ¡°No, no, I don¡¯t want to drink this.¡± Yin Xun quickly rejected it.


    Fang Yao was even more puzzled when he saw her reaction. This coke was prepared specifically because she liked it¡ªshe had considered it her comfort drink.


    Could it be that Yin Xun was tired of coke already?


    Fang Yao took out Sprite, fruit juice, bubble water, and other beverages from the fridge, but Yin Xun rejected all of them. Yin Xun shook her head vigorously with a terrified expression, as though she had been offered poison.


    ¡°I won¡¯t drink these again.¡± Despite her words, her eyes were glued to the bottles. It was obvious that she wanted to drink.


    Fang Yao frowned and thought about it, but he could not think of a reason.


    While this went on, a servant came over to serve some snacks and chicken soup.


    If it was in the past, Yin Xun would have started eating long ago. Today, however, Yin Xun was staring at the food and did not move her chopsticks for a long time.


    Fang Yao was confused. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Do you not like it? If you want something else, just tell me. I¡¯ll get the servants to prepare it. Don¡¯t feel reserved.¡±

 Chapter 191 - 191 Fang Yao Laughed

    191 Fang Yao Laughed


    Listening to Fang Yao¡¯s concerned words, Yin Xun felt that if she did not say anything, Fang Yao would surely misunderstand her.


    With that in mind, she sighed and explained, ¡°No, these are all my favorites. Actually¡­ it¡¯s because my father said that I¡¯ve gotten fat. I need to lose weight, so that¡¯s why I rejected the food.¡±


    Yin Xun looked embarrassed.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s explanation, Fang Yao was stunned for a moment, then he could not stop himself from laughing out loud.


    Yin Xun thought that Fang Yao was laughing at her for being fat. He looked at him resentfully and said, ¡°You sure look happy. So, you think I¡¯m fat too, right?¡±


    After being faced with Yin Xun¡¯s question, Fang Yao laughed for a while longer before stopping.


    He knew that girls were especially sensitive to their weight and did not like to be called fat. He used to think that Yin Xun was a workaholic who was not interested in anything other than work.


    After all, when she was discussing the collaboration back then, she was so serious and focused. It was as if she was coated in a layer of impenetrable light. Fang Yao still remembered it vividly.


    He did not expect Yin Xun to be troubled by her body shape. It was very cute and he liked this side of her very much.


    Fang Yao finally understood why Yin Xun¡¯s face had been filled with worry ever since they came back. It turned out that it was not because he had done something wrong to her. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief.


    Being stared at by Yin Xun¡¯s aggrieved gaze, he immediately felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained, ¡°No, you¡¯re not fat at all. If even you¡¯re considered fat, then there are no skinny people in the world. However¡­¡±


    Fang Yao smiled faintly and added, ¡°If you really think you¡¯ve gained weight, then come and train with me. I was just wondering about something. When we first met, you used to go for morning runs often. Why don¡¯t I see you running anymore?¡±


    Yin Xun said embarrassedly, ¡°Because running every day is too tiring, and I have a lot of work to do, so I quit.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. If you can¡¯t keep up that routine, you can train with me. With a partner, you¡¯ll be much more motivated,¡± Fang Yao said with a smile.


    Yin Xun thought about it and felt that exercising was too tiring, so she refused. ¡°No, I think it¡¯s best to just eat less. Besides, I¡¯ve been eating too much. Exercising is a separate matter.¡±


    If she really had the perseverance, she would not have given up on her morning jog.


    However, Fang Yao did not support her plans. ¡°Heavy dieting is not good for the body and will just come back to bite you. Exercise is the best. Exercise not only helps with weight loss but also strengthens the body. In the future, if you find yourself in danger, being fit will also help you escape. Have you forgotten that Xing Cheng sent someone to kidnap you?¡±


    After being reminded by Fang Yao, Yin Xun¡¯s expression suddenly became serious.


    Fang Yao was right. Back then, she had avoided being captured based on sheer luck. The security guards happened to come out at the right time. If the guards had not appeared, what would have happened to her? She did not need to think long to know that the ending would be very tragic.


    Although Xing Cheng no longer had a target on her, there was still Si Fan and Yin Mo. Especially now that she and Si Fan had officially declared war, based on that man¡¯s personality, he would definitely spare no effort to teach her a lesson.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun took a deep breath and made up her mind. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll train with you. Apart from the usual training, I also have to learn self-defense. My safety must be in my own hands. I can¡¯t be at the mercy of others.¡±


    ¡°No problem.¡± Fang Yao smiled. ¡°Since you¡¯ve decided to exercise and lose weight, you still have to eat your fill. As they say, you only have the strength to lose weight after eating. Eat to your heart¡¯s content tonight.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re right.¡± Yin Xun approved Fang Yao¡¯s suggestion. She could finally eat without worry.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll start eating,¡± Yin Xun said to Fang Yao. Seeing Fang Yao nod, she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat heartily. This time, she even drank the cola.


    The two of them were eating when Fang Yao suddenly received a message. He took out his phone and looked at it. His lips curled up slightly.


    ¡°I received a message. It must be what you want to hear,¡± Fang Yao said to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°What¡¯s the news?¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes flashed. ¡°Dawn Club has been cracked down. When Liu Xin went to the club to solicit prostitutes, his wife caught him.¡±

 Chapter 192 - 192 Adding Oil To The Flame

    192 Adding Oil To The Flame


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°That¡¯s great. Other than my weight gain, it¡¯s all good news today. But never mind that. There¡¯s always some good and bad. He really deserves it. He did so many illegal things. He drugged a girl and sent her to another man¡¯s bed. He also gambled and was a loan shark. His misdeeds have finally been investigated today.¡±


    ¡°However, with Si Fan¡¯s connections, I don¡¯t think this matter will hurt the foundation because he¡¯s not the legal representative of Dawn Club,¡± Fang Yao commented.


    Yin Xun did not seem to mind. ¡°It¡¯s alright. With such a big incident, it will at least trouble him for a while. After this, my company will start to stabilize. Once that happens, it will be too late for him to play tricks. It¡¯s all thanks to you that our first step was successful.¡±


    ¡°No, it¡¯s all thanks to you,¡± Fang Yao said with a smile.


    !!


    ¡°In any case, we¡¯re business partners. It doesn¡¯t matter who does it. We¡¯ll be the ones benefiting in the end, so we don¡¯t have to give in to each other so humbly.¡± Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao was really trying to flatter her and found it funny.


    She was not being humble when she said this¡ªshe really thought so.


    Although no one else knew about the dark side of Dawn Club, Yin Xun knew it very well. After all, when she first read the novel, she hated Si Fan¡¯s actions.


    On the surface, the Dawn Club was built as a high and mighty place. The image that Si Fan had created for the outside world was also that of a high-end place. However, the actual situation was not as it seemed. This was a place that Si Fan specially used to do illegal things.


    Under the cover of the clubhouse, he tricked many young girls into coming in under the guise of finding a job and then disciplined them.


    As far as Yin Xun knew, the top floor of Si Fan¡¯s clubhouse was the place where these girls were abused. According to the original novel¡¯s description, the top floor was decorated very extravagantly. Even the walls were made of transparent glass. There were only beds and many training tools in those glass rooms. The girls were locked up in these glass rooms and stripped naked to be trained.


    During the training, those who were as lowly as Si Fan watched from beyond the walls as the girls were raped and beaten¡ªthe glass wall was a one-way mirror. As long as the girl was not subjugated, she would be locked in that room until she submitted.


    As long as the trained girl passed the test, she would become a tool used by Si Fan to please those high-ranking officials.


    Si Fan¡¯s position in this club was perfect. Only high-ranking officials or wealthy tycoons could come. Si Fan used this opportunity to broaden his connections.


    Because not everyone could enter the clubhouse, and Si Fan had the backing of a high-ranking official, even if Yin Xun knew the truth, she could not use this matter to attack him. If they wanted to deal with him, they would have to let their people fight among themselves.


    Liu Xin, the CEO of Ding Ding Food Company, was a regular customer here.


    Yin Xun had already investigated these rich people who had a good relationship with Si Fan. Liu Xin was a typical man who relied on his wife to support him.


    When he was young, he relied on his good looks to get close to his current wife. He went from a poor kid who had nothing to a billionaire and even became the CEO of the company.


    However, he only held a title in the company. Other than money, he had nothing else. He had no freedom and no right to speak. He had to listen to his wife.


    Back then, he got together with his wife purely for the sake of money. He did not love his wife. As time passed, he could not stand it anymore and often went out to have affairs.


    However, his financial power was in the Madam¡¯s hands. He did not dare to be high-profile with a mistress. In order to prevent Madam from discovering him, every affair he had would not last long.


    Si Fan took a fancy to this point and catered to his preferences. He invited Liu Xin to the Dawn Clubhouse and secretly pushed women into his hands. Because of this transaction, Liu Xin helped Si Fan a lot.


    Recently, Yin Xun had been sending people to keep an eye on Liu Xin. Because Liu Xin¡¯s wife had been strict recently, he had not had the chance to go out. A few days ago, something had happened to his wife¡¯s family and everyone was busy. He seized the opportunity to sneak out and ask Si Fan for a woman.


    How could Yin Xun let go of such a good opportunity?


    She did not know Liu Xin¡¯s wife. It was not a good idea for her to inform her directly, and Liu Xin¡¯s wife would definitely not believe her. Hence, she asked Fang Yao to find someone to launch a complaint.


    Liu Xin¡¯s wife had always been a fiery person. When she found out that Liu Xin was having an affair, she was so angry that she went straight to the club to look for him. At the s

 Chapter 193 - 193 Start Training

    193 Start Training


    Due to the huge commotion, the club was immediately closed down by the police. The matter of Dawn Club catching innocent girls and forcing them into prostitution was also exposed. In the future, Dawn Club would no longer be a noble place. In the eyes of outsiders, it was a hub for prostitution. No one would dare to come again in the future.


    However, the only pity was that the legal representative of the club was not Si Fan. Someone had taken Si Fan¡¯s place. Coupled with his connections, he would not be too affected by this incident. At most, he would lose some money.


    Yin Xun thought about it. Actually, making Si Fan lose money was already a good outcome. If Si Fan wanted to fight a business war with her, he would have to burn money. Right now, he was in dire need of funds. Losing money at this time was no different from adding insult to injury.


    After hearing this news, Yin Xun¡¯s appetite instantly improved, and the food tasted even better.


    !!


    However, Fang Yao was a little worried. He asked, ¡°With such a big commotion, will your father have a problem with you?¡±


    He had always known what Yin Xun was like in the Yin family.


    Although Yin Cheng had always doted on Yin Xun, the relationship between Yin Xun and Yin Mo had always been bad, especially since Si Fan had sowed discord between them, causing the relationship between the two sisters to worsen.


    Si Fan was very good at pretending to be a good person in front of outsiders. Even Yin Cheng had been deceived by him back then.


    If Yin Cheng knew that it was Yin Xun who had set up Si Fan, would he blame Yin Xun? Even if he did not blame her, what about Yin Mo? How would Yin Mo react?


    Fang Yao did not care much about other people, but he felt that Yin Xun would care about her family¡¯s opinion very much.


    However, he was surprised to see Yin Xun shake her head nonchalantly. ¡°That won¡¯t happen. My father already knows that my relationship with Yin Mo is not good, so he has long left us alone.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun did not care about this, Fang Yao was relieved.


    While the two of them were chatting, Yin Xun had already eaten a lot. She was finally full. She touched her stomach and drank a bowl of coconut soup contentedly before ending the meal.


    After eating and drinking her fill, Yin Xun bade farewell to Fang Yao and went home.


    The next day, Fang Yao kept his promise and came knocking on the door early in the morning.


    Yin Xun was still in a daze when Fang Yao dragged her out for a morning run.


    ¡°Today is the first day. We only going to run in the morning. Although training is important, we have to do it step by step. When you get used to it in the future, we¡¯ll increase the schedule,¡± Fang Yao said to Yin Xun as he ran.


    Last night, he had specially formulated a schedule based on Yin Xun¡¯s physical condition. Although it wore her out a lot, it was completely within Yin Xun¡¯s tolerance.


    The villa area was very big. After Fang Yao led Yin Xun around, Yin Xun was already so exhausted that she could not stand straight.


    When Yin Xun arrived at the company, her half-dead appearance gave Mi Jin a fright.


    ¡°President Yin, I was the one who was working overtime last night to check on the website. You went home to take a break. Why do you look like you¡¯ve done more work than me?¡± Mi Jin could not help but ask curiously.


    Yin Xun leaned back in her chair and said weakly, ¡°Don¡¯t talk about it. My life won¡¯t be easy from now on¡­¡±


    After a while, Yin Xun finally regained some strength. She looked at Mi Jin¡¯s thick dark circles and asked with a frown, ¡°How long did you work overtime yesterday?¡±


    ¡°I left at two in the morning. After you left yesterday, Si Fan got a hacker to attack our website again. Seeing that he hasn¡¯t learned his lesson, I gently retaliated. Now, his website is filled with bugs. I don¡¯t think he will attack our website again in the short term.¡± As he spoke, Mi Jin failed to stifle a yawn.


    Yin Xun saw that Mi Jin was also listless and said, ¡°Since Si Fan won¡¯t attack our website anymore, we¡¯ll leave the rest to the other employees. Go back and rest for a day. I¡¯ll watch over from here.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯m fine. Besides, you don¡¯t know anything about programming. If Si Fan attacks again, you won¡¯t know how to resolve it,¡± Mi Jin said.


    Yin Xun nodded and did not continue to persuade him. This kind of thing could only be done by professionals. She really could not do it.


    ¡°Is there any movement from the Blue Fox Company?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mi Jin shook his head. ¡°Not yet. After their attacks stopped, they didn¡¯t do anything else. It¡¯s as if they have given up resisting.¡±


    Yin Xun was a little surprised. Based on Si Fan¡¯s personality, it was impossible for him to be so quiet and not do anything. He probably had not found a way to retaliate yet, so he was quiet for now.

 Chapter 194 - 194 Thanking Yin Xun

    194 Thanking Yin Xun


    ¡°Continue to keep an eye on them. Don¡¯t relax. Si Fan must be thinking of a way to get back at us. We¡¯ll have to work hard for a while. When things stabilize, we¡¯ll be fine. When we get to that point, I¡¯ll be sure to give you a long vacation and let you rest well,¡± Yin Xun said.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Mi Jin nodded in agreement. Then, as if he had just thought of something, he said awkwardly, ¡°However, when I hacked into Si Fan¡¯s company¡¯s computer, I saw his email. He gathered all the information about my past. It seems like he wants to expose me.¡±


    Regarding past events, although Mi Jin was forced into doing those things, it was a fact that he was in prison and that he was framed by Si Fan. If Si Fan used these against him, not only him, but Yin Xun would also suffer. Mi Jin was very worried about this.


    Yin Xun smiled mysteriously at him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve already resolved this matter. I hope that he will go public with that information. The day it¡¯s exposed will be the day you clear your name.¡±


    !!


    ¡°What do you mean? Could it be¡­¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun in surprise.


    ¡°Back then, Si Fan passed the information you made to another company and framed you for leaking it. This matter was done very directly and there was basically no evidence to use against you. However, there was one thing that Si Fan didn¡¯t predict. That company had actually been acquired by the Fang family, so Fang Yao investigated the transaction records of that incident. Although the person who made the transaction wasn¡¯t Si Fan but his subordinate, it¡¯s enough to prove your innocence,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin finally relaxed. He never thought that Yin Xun would help him to this extent.


    ¡°President Yin, thank you. I did not expect you to help me so much,¡± Mi Jin said emotionally.


    However, before Mi Jin could finish speaking, Yin Xun interrupted him. ¡°You¡¯re my employee. I¡¯m not doing this to help you, but to help myself. After all, your skills are one of the best in the country. If Si Fan takes you down, I¡¯ll have to find a replacement. It¡¯s too troublesome.¡±


    Mi Jin was so touched that he almost teared up. He did not expect Yin Xun to cut across him there. Yin Xun was indeed magnanimous and would never threaten him with such a thing.


    Mi Jin did not know how to repay Yin Xun. The only thing he could do was to help Yin Xun work and earn more money.


    ¡°President Yin, please thank President Fang for me. I want to thank him for helping me.¡± Other than Yin Xun, Mi Jin knew that Fang Yao was also his great benefactor and had helped him a lot.


    ¡°Alright, if you¡¯re so grateful, I¡¯ll let him know.¡± Yin Xun looked at the website interface on the computer and instructed Mi Jin, ¡°Although they¡¯re no longer a threat, you still have to pay more attention to the movements of the Blue Fox Company. If there¡¯s anything, let me know at once. Based on Si Fan¡¯s personality, there¡¯s no way he¡¯ll sit quietly. He¡¯ll definitely make a move.¡±


    After giving her instructions, Yin Xun returned to her office. On top of what she just said, she still had a lot of work to do. She could let her employees negotiate with ordinary businesses, but she would have to negotiate with those big-name companies personally.


    While she was working, Yin Xun suddenly received a call from Wu Li. As soon as she picked up, an anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.


    ¡°Xun, your sister fainted. She¡¯s been vomiting for the past two days. I think¡­ she said that she¡¯s pregnant.¡± Wu Li sounded anxious and seemed to be crying.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡±


    Why did these words sound so familiar? Yin Mo had looked for her not long ago and even questioned her about why she was going against Si Fan. At that time, Yin Mo did not look pregnant at all. She was wearing high heels and looked so energetic.


    Recalling how Yin Mo had used suicide to force Yin Cheng to give her money, Yin Xun had an inexplicable feeling that the two incidents were somewhat similar.


    Seeing that Yin Xun did not reply, Wu Li asked, ¡°Xun, are you very busy now? If you are, then go do your things first. I can handle things here.¡±


    Yin Xun sighed in her heart and promptly said, ¡°It¡¯s fine. Where are you now? I¡¯ll go find you.¡±


    Now that Si Fan was tied down by the matters at the club, even if he wanted to challenge her, he would not be able to do it so quickly. It should be fine for her to take some time off.


    ¡°I just called an ambulance and I¡¯m on my way to the hospital. Why don¡¯t you wait for us there?¡± Wu Li said.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Yin Xun agreed and instructed Mi Jin to help take over before leaving.


    When Yin Xun arrived at the hospital, she immediately saw Wu Li sitting in the hospital lobby.


    Wu Li stared at the examination room with a worried look on her face.

 Chapter 195 - 195 Using The Same Old Trick

    195 Using The Same Old Trick


    ¡°Mom, how is it?¡± Yin Xun walked over and asked.


    Wu Li frowned and said, ¡°We don¡¯t know yet. We just arrived too. Lil Mo is being examined inside now. If she¡¯s really pregnant, I can¡¯t tell if it¡¯s a good thing or a bad thing. Although Si Fan is a decent person, your father does not seem to be very happy with him now. There¡¯s also the fact that they aren¡¯t married yet. I¡¯m worried your sister will suffer in the future.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Mom. Based on how much Yin Mo loves Si Fan, they¡¯ll surely be together in the future. Besides, it¡¯s not a bad thing that she¡¯s pregnant. Even if she breaks up with Si Fan in the future, it¡¯s not hard for our family to raise a child,¡± Yin Xun said comfortingly.


    ¡°That¡¯s true. We¡¯ll let nature take its course. As long as Lil Mo is healthy, it¡¯ll be fine,¡± Wu Li sighed.


    Yin Xun sat beside Wu Li and waited with her for the results. After waiting for a while, there was still no movement inside. She looked at the hospital and suddenly remembered that Si Xia was also hospitalized in this place. A thought suddenly arose in Yin Xun¡¯s mind.


    ¡°Mom, I have an old friend here. I¡¯ll go and look for them. Call me when Yin Mo comes out,¡± Yin Xun said to Wu Li.


    Wu Li looked at Yin Xun in confusion and asked, ¡°You have a friend here? Who is it? Is it a boy or a girl? Why didn¡¯t you tell me earlier? Should I go with you to take a look?¡±


    At this moment, other than worry, there was a hint of curiosity on Wu Li¡¯s face.


    Yin Xun was old enough to find a boyfriend. Yin Mo had been with Si Fan for so long, but Yin Xun showed no signs of finding a boyfriend. To be honest, she was still a little anxious about her.


    Unfortunately, Yin Xun was going to disappoint her.


    ¡°It¡¯s a girl. I¡¯m not very familiar with her. I¡¯m just going to visit her. I¡¯ll be back soon.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she walked upstairs.


    Based on her memory, Yin Xun went to the door of Si Xia¡¯s ward. At this moment, the door was slightly ajar, revealing a small gap. Yin Xun looked through the gap and saw Si Xia lying on the bed reading a book.


    The corners of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth curled up slightly, and she suddenly had an idea.


    Blue Fox Company.


    Si Fan also did not sleep the entire night. He had been thinking of a way to deal with Yin Xun in his office until dawn.


    He had thought about launching an event, but that would cost a lot of money. He could not afford that much money now. If he wanted to go against Yin Xun to the bitter end, he had to find an investor as soon as possible. Yin Xun must have the support of some big shot to dare to play such a big game.


    Thinking of this, Si Fan took out his phone, looked at the contact list, and called Xing Cheng.


    The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.


    ¡°Si Fan? Why are you looking for me?¡± Xing Cheng¡¯s tone did not sound friendly.


    Si Fan hesitated for a moment before saying, ¡°Xing Cheng, how have you been lately? Do you need my help?¡±


    Xing Cheng immediately understood the meaning behind Si Fan¡¯s words and asked impatiently, ¡°If you have something to say, just say it.¡±


    ¡°I have a project here. I¡¯ve reserved a spot for you. Do you want to invest in it? If we succeed, there will be massive dividends in the future,¡± Si Fan said calmly.


    Xing Cheng had been tricked by Si Fan many times in the past. Now, he had finally learned his lesson. He sneered and said, ¡°Investment? Reserved a spot? Si Fan, do you really think I deserve something so nice? You¡¯re actually short of funds, aren¡¯t you? I don¡¯t have any money. My money has been taken back by my father, so I can¡¯t do anything now. If there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll hang up. I still have something to do.¡±


    After Xing Cheng was tricked by Si Fan back then, he wanted to plot revenge on him, but Xing Li advised him to give up on this idea¡ªhe was no match for Si Fan¡¯s schemes. After that, Xing Cheng stayed at home obediently and did not try anything.


    Now, however, just hearing Si Fan¡¯s voice irritated him.


    Xing Cheng hung up without waiting for Si Fan to answer.


    Si Fan listened to the sound of the phone being hung up and frowned. He did not expect that he would fail to rope Xing Cheng in. At the same time, he had a suspicion as to why Xing Cheng was suddenly so cold to him. Could it be that Yin Mo¡¯s persuasion went poorly the other day?


    Knowing that he could not convince Xing Cheng, Si Fan called Liu Ying.


    However, Liu Ying, who had always been pestering him in the past, today found an excuse to say that she had no money and could not invest. Refusing to help was one thing, but Liu Ying¡¯s attitude toward him was also very cold, which made Si Fan feel very confused.


    However, no matter how he asked, Liu Ying refused to elaborate. In the end, she even said that she was tired and wanted to end the call so she could rest. However, it was still morning. Si Fan did not know why Liu Ying had suddenly changed her attitude. He wondered if it might be because he did not visit Liu Ying when she was in prison. It seemed like he should have Yin Mo visit Liu Ying in the future and get closer to her.

 Chapter 196 - 196 Si Xia’s Interrogation

    196 Si Xia¡¯s Interrogation


    Si Fan called his other friends after that, but none of them were willing to help him.


    The club had been sealed and could no longer provide him with financial support. He had already lost a large sum of money, and now there was no one to help him. Si Fan suddenly felt a little lost and did not know what to do.


    His sense of isolation was worse now than even when he first started his business. He made so many calls, but none of them were useful. At this moment, Si Fan was already furious. He raised his phone and was about to throw it to the ground, but in the end, he controlled himself.


    Although he wanted to smash something to vent his anger, he could not smash his phone. He still had work to do.


    !!


    After a dispirited morning, it was time to go to work. Si Fan immediately gathered all the shareholders for a meeting.


    However, even though the meeting had been going on for nearly a full day, there was still nothing they could do.


    However, they could not ignore Xintao¡¯s current development trend. If they did not take action, Xintao would soon surpass Blue Fox.


    However, there seemed to be no other way to solve this other than burning money. They did not know how deep Xintao¡¯s funds were and whether or not they could match it.


    If they threw in their money and failed, it would be equivalent to losing everything. The cost of this bet was too high, and no one dared to gamble.


    Now, the directors of Blue Fox were in a dilemma. They did not know how to deal with Xintao.


    Finally, just as Si Fan was in a terrible fix, a director gave him a suggestion.


    ¡°President Si, our Blue Fox has been in business for a very long time. In terms of connections and the company¡¯s financial resources, it shouldn¡¯t be something that a company that has just started can compare to. We can directly ask those merchants if they want to choose our Blue Fox or Xintao. Let them choose between the two right now. If they are smart, they will make the right choice. I think no one will choose a new company.¡±


    Although Si Fan was not very satisfied with this suggestion, he could only give it a try.


    He called Cheng She over and instructed, ¡°Go and ask those connected merchants if they want to cooperate with our Blue Fox or with the newly opened Xintao. They can only choose one. Let them decide!¡±


    ¡°Yes, I¡¯ll go ask them immediately.¡± Cheng She agreed and went out.


    None of the directors left the meeting room. Everyone was very anxious and waiting for Cheng She¡¯s results.


    While waiting for the results, Si Fan¡¯s phone suddenly rang. A glimmer of hope rose in his heart. Could it be that one of his friends wanted to help him?


    He quickly took out his phone, but when he saw the name on it, the hope he had ignited instantly dissipated.


    It was Si Xia.


    Si Xia always liked to be unreasonable. As long as she asked for something, others had to get it done. Otherwise, she would cause a ruckus until everyone broke down.


    He hung up the phone in frustration, but Si Xia did not give up. When Si Fan rejected the call, she immediately called again. This repeated a few times. When Si Xia saw that Si Fan would not pick up, she sent him a text message.


    The content of the message was nothing more than asking whether Si Fan still cared for her. He was so cold to her and did not even pick up her call. She even threatened Si Fan that if he did not pick up her call, he would never get to see her again.


    When Si Fan read the message, he knew Si Xia was in a bad temper. He had no choice but to walk out of the meeting room and call Si Xia.


    ¡°Xiaxia, I¡¯m in a meeting now. I¡¯ll visit you after the meeting, okay?¡± Si Fan patiently coaxed Si Xia.


    ¡°Brother Si Fan, have you decided to be with Yin Mo in the future and abandon me?¡± Si Xia asked.


    ¡°What are you talking about? How could you think that? Can¡¯t you see how good I am to you? I¡¯m really busy. Xiaxia, please listen to me.¡± Si Fan frowned and comforted her. At this moment, he was already extremely frustrated. If Si Xia did not relent, he would lose his temper.


    Si Xia could hear the impatience in Si Fan¡¯s tone, but she was unwilling to give up, so she went straight to the point and asked, ¡°Brother Si Fan, tell me the truth. Yin Mo is pregnant with your child. Are you planning to give up on me?¡±


    After saying that, Si Xia started crying.


    Si Fan was stunned when he heard that. He asked, ¡°What? Yin Mo is pregnant? When did this happen? Why haven¡¯t I heard? Who told you that?¡±

 Chapter 197 - 197 Forced To Choose Between The Two

    197 Forced To Choose Between The Two


    Si Fan was shocked by Si Xia¡¯s words and could not keep his voice down.


    In the end, he was overheard by the employees passing by. No one dared to discuss this in front of him, but after they were far away from Si Fan, they began to murmur among themselves. They did not expect Yin Mo to be pregnant. Would Si Fan and Yin Mo be getting married soon?


    After all, Yin Mo was the second daughter of the Yin family. As long as they got married, Si Fan would be a member of the Yin family in the future.


    Si Fan was unaware of the gossip between the employees. At this moment, he was still discussing the matter with Si Xia.


    !!


    Seeing that Si Fan really knew nothing, Si Xia sobbed, ¡°How would I know how she got pregnant? Shouldn¡¯t you know better? Don¡¯t deny it. Yin Mo came to the hospital for a checkup, and her mother was accompanying her!¡±


    Si Xia¡¯s heart was not in good condition, so it was harmful for her to get overly emotional. Si Fan was afraid that something would happen to her, so he quickly comforted her. ¡°Xiaxia, don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t let this kind of thing happen. I have something urgent to attend to now. I¡¯ve been tricked by Yin Xun and I need to find a way to get back at her. After I¡¯m done, I¡¯ll go visit you and see what¡¯s going on with Yin Mo, okay?¡±


    ¡°Are you trying to comfort me? Just tell me when your child is born. When that happens, no matter what I say or do, it¡¯s useless!¡± Si Xia broke into tears as she accused Si Fan.


    Si Fan was already feeling vexed. Now that Si Xia was making accusations of him like this, his anger immediately flared up. He was about to reprimand Si Xia when he saw Cheng She return.


    Cheng She saw that the boss was on the phone and just mouthed the results to him.


    Right now, Si Fan only cared about solving the company¡¯s problem and did not want to continue arguing with Si Xia over such a small matter. He said coldly, ¡°Alright, stop messing around. I¡¯ll head over after I¡¯m done here. That¡¯s all. Wait for me at the hospital like a good girl.¡±


    After Si Fan finished speaking, he hung up without waiting for Si Xia to say anything else. After that, he switched his phone to silent mode so he would not have to worry about being disturbed.


    ¡°Are there results? Let¡¯s talk inside.¡± Si Fan called Cheng She, who was waiting at the side, into the meeting room.


    ¡°Well?¡± the directors in the room asked.


    Facing the serious-looking directors in the meeting room, he said to Si Fan fearfully, ¡°P¡ªPresident Si, those brands said that if they had to choose one out of two, then¡­ then they would choose Xintao¡­¡±


    ¡°What?!¡± Si Fan slammed the table and said angrily, ¡°We¡¯ve signed a contract with these treacherous fellows. Besides, we¡¯ve worked together for so many years. How can they side with Xintao so quickly?¡±


    The other directors also expressed their confusion. Their company had always worked well with these brands. Why did this suddenly happen?


    Everyone questioned Cheng She, scaring him so much that he did not dare to speak.


    Cheng She looked at these superiors and was so nervous that he was even trembling a little. Only when Si Fan pressed him to speak did he continue, ¡°Xintao said that they won¡¯t charge the merchants any fees for the next two years. Also, the coupons for the promotion won¡¯t be borne by the merchants either. It will all be borne by Xintao. And since Xintao has just opened, their discounts are massive. Since they are partners with Zhenku, they have attracted many new users. Almost all of these users will register their accounts and buy things on the Xintao website. They have already received massive orders¡­¡±


    ¡°So what if there¡¯s a promotion? It¡¯s only the first day. Who knows what will happen in the future? Everyone can see clearly the development of our Blue Fox. How many companies can last as long as we did? They don¡¯t know how to judge the situation at all. They changed sides for such a small benefit!¡± Si Fan spat.


    Although Cheng She was afraid that Si Fan would vent his anger on him, he could not help but curse in his heart. Everyone here was a businessman. Who cares about relationships? Can relationships be exchanged for money? Besides, the discount given by Xintao was nothing ordinary. It was purely designed to attract merchants and a large number of new users. If he were a merchant, he would also go to Xintao.


    However, he only dared to say this in his heart. He did not dare to tell Si Fan directly.


    ¡°President Si, what should we do? It looks like there¡¯s someone backing Xintao. That¡¯s why they¡¯re able to spend so much money like this. Are we really going to spend as much?¡± The directors present were very worried.


    At the side, Cheng She was afraid that Si Fan would make things difficult for him again, so he quickly said, ¡°CEO Si, actually, the leader of the online industry is still our Blue Fox. Xintao has just started, and they won¡¯t pose a threat to us. The domestic market is very big, and it can easily accommodate two companies. As long as we improve our company¡¯s strength, we¡¯ll be fine. Look, there are so many construction companies around, but isn¡¯t the Yin family still able to keep its spot at the top?¡±

 Chapter 198 - 198 There’s A Solution

    198 There¡¯s A Solution


    ¡°You¡¯re just an assistant. What do you know? Yin Xun¡¯s motive is obvious. She wants to destroy me. What she did recently is only to target me. No matter what, I have to destroy Xintao. Otherwise, Blue Fox will be threatened,¡± Si Fan said impatiently.


    After being scolded by Si Fan, Cheng She knew that he had said too much. It would not be good if he continued to talk and anger Si Fan, so he stopped talking.


    This method did not work. Everyone discussed it for a long time, but none of them came up with anything. In the end, there was really no solution. Si Fan asked everyone to end the meeting and continue to think of strategies.


    In the end, the meeting ended in failure. While he was worrying, Si Fan thought of Si Xia¡¯s call. She had said that Yin Mo was pregnant and was in the hospital for a checkup. She had fainted before going to the hospital.


    Yin Mo¡¯s pregnancy was a big deal to him. His career was on the rise now. He could not let Yin Mo ruin his future development.


    After some thought, Si Fan decided to go to the hospital to take a look.


    As soon as he walked out of the office, he bumped into Cheng She.


    ¡°President Si, are you going out?¡± Cheng She looked at Si Fan and saw that he was holding a suit jacket. He could not help but ask.


    Si Fan frowned and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s like this. I suddenly thought of an idea. Although it might not be useful, we can give it a try,¡± Cheng She said. ¡°Didn¡¯t Xintao collaborate with Zhenku? They even used Zhenku¡¯s press conference to promote their website. Don¡¯t we also have a mobile phone partner? Although our mobile website hasn¡¯t been developed yet, we can do a warm-up.¡±


    Si Fan immediately understood what Cheng She meant and said, ¡°So you¡¯re saying that you want me to discuss with the P-brand phone company and get them to promote our website at the press conference?¡±


    Cheng She nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. I heard that the latest flagship model of P-brand phones will be released in a week. Our website will be completed in at most ten days. We¡¯re already partners. Wouldn¡¯t it be a win-win situation if we ask them to delay their launch three days later and then release it with our website? Of course, we can¡¯t stand idly before it¡¯s released. We can use other methods to warm it up.¡±


    After listening to Cheng She¡¯s suggestion, Si Fan felt suddenly enlightened. He had thought for so long, but he had not thought of this method.


    ¡°I¡¯ll credit you for your contribution. If this really succeeds, you¡¯ll be rewarded.¡± After Si Fan finished speaking, he immediately turned around and returned to his office. He took out his phone and called the P-brand representative in the country.


    With Cheng She¡¯s hint just now, it was best if he planned out what to do.


    When he was discussing a collaboration with the P-brand phone company, their attitude toward him was very pleasant and the collaboration discussion went smoothly. Si Fan thought that they would even agree to help him promote it. Moreover, P-brand had a press conference next week. He had to make use of such a good opportunity.


    His plan was to delay the release of the new P-brand phone by three days. After the Blue Fox website was completed, he would directly upload it to the P-brand phones. Then, on the day of the release, the P-brand representative would conveniently introduce the Blue Fox website and help him promote it. This way, he would definitely attract many users.


    However, to his surprise, when he told the P-Brand representative about this matter, the reply he received was that this business avenue was not in their contract. They were not obliged to care about this matter.


    Si Fan explained a lot about Zhenku¡¯s phone release. After talking for a long time, he finally made the representative loosen up a little to the idea. He compromised and promised that he could mention the Blue Fox website at the press conference, but the money had to be in place. This would not change no matter what.


    As Blue Fox¡¯s business partner, it was normal for everyone to do things that were beneficial to each other. They had agreed to his request as he hoped, but he did not expect them to be so arrogant and money-focused.


    Si Fan recalled the night they discussed their initial collaboration. He had chatted so happily with the person in charge.


    He felt that he could not count on P-brand anymore. He recalled that Xiaoguo and Zhenku had wanted to partner with him previously, but he was distracted by Si Xia at that time, so he ignored them.


    Si Fan assumed that he just could ask them if they wanted to continue working together later on. Blue Fox was one of the top companies in the country, after all. It was an honor to partner with Blue Fox.


    However, the Zhenku flagship phone model had already been released. He had lost his chance. Now, he had to try Xiaoguo again.


    At the thought of this, Si Fan called Lei Yuan, the representative of Xiaoguo.

 Chapter 199 - 199 Go To The Bank

    199 Go To The Bank


    After the call was picked up, Si Fan told Lei Yuan his thoughts. To his surprise, the man¡¯s attitude toward him was completely different from that night. He was extremely cold.


    However, in order to cooperate with Lei Yuan, Si Fan pretended that he did not hear Lei Yuan¡¯s tone. He told Lei Yuan about his intention to cooperate, and at the same time, he promised that Lei Yuan would definitely make a killing in the future.


    Unfortunately, Lei Yuan was not interested. He had not forgotten what happened at the cocktail party. At that time, he really wanted to cooperate with Si Fan, but Si Fan looked down on him so much that he actually asked him, the CEO, to consult with Si Fan¡¯s assistant. What was even more infuriating was that Si Fan left without even saying anything. He had shown no respect for him at all.


    This made him unsuitable to be a partner. If he worked with Si Fan, he would only suffer.


    !!


    Lei Yuan said calmly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, CEO Si. We originally wanted to work with you, but when I saw that you didn¡¯t have the intention at that time, I decided to work with Xintao. We¡¯ve already signed the contract.¡±


    Si Fan did not expect Xiaoguo to have also signed the contract with Xintao. Before making the call, he thought that even if Xiaoguo was planning to partner with another party, he was confident that he could persuade him to come over.


    Now that he had signed the contract, however, Si Fan did not have a chance.


    However, he refused to give up. Why was he cut off at every step? Did Yin Xun predict his next move? What was with this woman?!


    ¡°Xintao is just a small company that has recently started. It has no prospects and no user base. There¡¯s no benefit in cooperating with Xintao. Why did you all choose Xintao? Our Blue Fox is the bigger company. Moreover, we have developed for so many years and have a group of loyal users.¡± This was his last resort. However, he did not expect Xiaoguo to be in cahoots with Xintao. He did not want to accept this result, but what did that matter? He no longer had a chance of winning them over.


    Si Fan¡¯s heart was filled with anger, but he could not vent it on Lei Yuan. He could only suppress his anger and question him.


    Long before Si Fan made the call, Yin Xun had already told Lei Yuan about their strategy to burn money¡ªthey were partners by contract, after all. The two of them were in the same boat, so they could only obtain the greatest benefits by advancing together.


    Since Si Fan was questioning him now, he thought he should take the chance to provoke Si Fan. He wanted to help Yin Xun achieve her goal of making this man waste money.


    As long as Si Fan started burning money, Blue Fox would have no way out.


    Lei Yuan laughed coldly and replied, ¡°Because Xintao is rich and honest. Yin Xun is also smart. President Si, don¡¯t hate me for telling the truth. You and President Yin, tsk tsk, this is not just a small difference we¡¯re looking at. You should give up. Don¡¯t think about going against President Yin. If you give up now, there is still a chance for Blue Fox to develop. If you insist on going against Xintao, then I am afraid that in the end, you will lose everything.¡±


    A strategic retreat would be the most useful move for an arrogant person like Si Fan.


    Lei Yuan was afraid that Si Fan would give up on the money-spending strategy because he had no funds. Lei Yuan added a suggestion, ¡°CEO Si, if you don¡¯t have money, you can just say it. It¡¯s not embarrassing to lose to your sister in a war of funds. However, if you can¡¯t get an investment, I can give you a suggestion.¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± Si Fan¡¯s eyes instantly widened. At this moment, he was desperate for a solution.


    Lei Yuan smiled and said, ¡°Go and borrow funds from the bank. Loans can solve all your problems.¡±


    After Lei Yuan finished speaking, he hung up without waiting for Si Fan to reply.


    Loans from the bank? The feeling of hope that had just risen in Si Fan¡¯s heart was instantly shattered. He was familiar with loans because he was a loan shark.


    Although bank loans were legal, the subsequent interest was also very large. With the amount of money he needed now if he took a loan of this size, he would have to use his future income to repay it for a long time.


    Si Fan looked at the notification on his phone screen. His face was so dark that it looked like it was melting.


    It was fine if Lei Yuan did not cooperate with him, but why had he suggested such a bad idea? He even made a comment that he could not compare to Yin Xun. What a joke. Yin Xun had just recently graduated. In terms of experience, she was not even half as good as him!


    Xintao¡¯s reputation was built on nothing but money. As long as the people in charge knew how to market, even an unknown small company could become popular. He knew all about this. What was so difficult about it? No matter what the price was, he had to defeat Yin Xun!


    Si Fan put away his phone and called Cheng She over¡­


    On the other side, after Yin Xun finished his business, she returned to Wu Li¡¯s side and waited with her for Yin Mo to come out.


    Wu Li had been in a constant state of anxiety. She was afraid that something would happen to Yin Mo. When Yin Xun saw her like this, she did not dare to leave. She had to accompany Wu Li.

 Chapter 200 - 200 Bad Luck Again

    200 Bad Luck Again


    She glanced at her phone from time to time. Fortunately, Mi Jin did not contact her, which meant that the company was fine.


    After a while, Yin Mo came out of the examination room. She did not look good, and her lips were pale.


    ¡°Lil Mo, how are you feeling?¡± Wu Li asked when she saw Yin Mo coming out.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know either. The results will be out in four hours,¡± Yin Mo said weakly. She saw Yin Xun standing beside Wu Li and asked in surprise, ¡°Sister, why are you here?¡±


    !!


    Yin Xun replied indifferently, ¡°I¡¯m afraid that Mom won¡¯t be able to handle it alone.¡±


    ¡°Sis, can I discuss something with you on account of my pregnancy?¡± Yin Mo looked at Yin Xun pitifully.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes and said, ¡°No.¡±


    There was no need for Yin Mo to say anything. She knew what was going on. It must be related to Si Fan. The last time Yin Mo attempted suicide, it was for Si Fan. Yin Mo would really do anything for Si Fan.


    Yin Mo was not giving up. Although Yin Xun rejected her, she still insisted, ¡°Sister, can you not fight Si Fan? It¡¯s not easy for him to start his own company. You caused such a big commotion and it has a huge impact on Si Fan¡¯s company.¡±


    ¡°Impact?¡± Yin Xun rolled her eyes at her and asked, ¡°You think too highly of Si Fan. Regardless of whether he¡¯s involved or not, I still have to do this project. He¡¯s not important enough for me to go out of my way to deal with him.¡±


    ¡°Our family is so rich. You can easily choose another industry. For example, real estate. Father can help you with that, or the food industry. Anyway, as long as it¡¯s not the internet, anything is fine¡­¡± Yin Mo said anxiously.


    Wu Li, who was listening to her two daughters¡¯ discussion, frowned tightly. She did not know what had happened to the two sisters again. Why did they start arguing again as soon as they met?


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo impatiently and asked, ¡°What I¡¯m doing has nothing to do with you. Why do you still want to interfere with me?¡±


    Yin Mo saw Yin Xun¡¯s impatient look and thought of Si Fan¡¯s words.


    She lowered her head and bit her lips tightly. In the end, she mustered her courage and raised her head to question Yin Xun. ¡°Sister, you were living well overseas, but you suddenly came back. Moreover, you wanted to enter the company¡¯s management as soon as you returned. Now, you even opened your own company. Could it be that you actually came back just to snatch the family assets from me? If that¡¯s not the reason, why are you always going against me¡­¡±


    Her voice became softer and softer until it was almost silent.


    Wu Li quickly stopped Yin Mo. ¡°Lil Mo, what are you talking about? How can you say that about your sister? Your sister has been helping your father with his business. That¡¯s why your father has been able to relax.¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Yin Mo was about to say something when her phone suddenly rang.


    Yin Mo glanced at Yin Xun and Wu Li, then walked further away before taking out her phone to answer the call.


    It was unknown what the other end of the phone spoke to her about, but when Yin Mo came back, she looked flustered.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Wu Li asked with concern.


    Yin Mo shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m fine. Mom, my friend is here too. I¡¯ll go to the ward upstairs to see her. Please wait for me here. I¡¯ll be back soon.¡±


    Wu Li nodded. ¡°Go ahead, but take care of your health.¡±


    After Yin Mo agreed, she quickly left.


    Wu Li looked at Yin Xun and asked in confusion, ¡°Why do all of you have friends in this hospital? Looks like this hospital is quite lively.¡±


    ¡°Mom, since Yin Mo is fine, let¡¯s just wait for the results to come out. I still have something on, so I¡¯ll take my leave first. Call me if anything happens.¡± Yin Xun did not tell Wu Li that Si Xia was upstairs. She did not want Wu Li to be upset.


    Besides, she did not want to waste any more time with Yin Mo. After getting Wu Li¡¯s approval, Yin Xun walked out of the hospital.


    As soon as she reached the entrance of the hospital, she saw a familiar person walking toward her. She pretended not to see him and continued forward.


    Si Fan, who was walking toward her, also saw her. Seeing that Yin Xun was ignoring him, he immediately called out, ¡°Yin Xun, what are you doing here?¡±


    This was the entrance of the hospital and there were many people coming and leaving. Yin Xun was not afraid that Si Fan would do anything to her in front of so many people. Hence, she stopped and smiled at Si Fan. ¡°What does it have to do with you where I go?¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Si Fan was still angry. He raised his hand and wanted to slap Yin Xun, but before he could put his hand down, he saw the people around him. He suppressed his anger and said, ¡°Was it you who caused the issue about Yin Mo¡¯s pregnancy?¡±

 Chapter 201 - 201 Why Are You Targeting Me?

    201 Why Are You Targeting Me?


    Yin Xun heard Si Fan¡¯s question and stopped in her tracks. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Si Fan in surprise. ¡°Me? Hehe, Si Fan, have you been having too much heat recently? Your brain seems to be fried. Yin Mo is your girlfriend. You should know best how she¡¯s pregnant. How is it related to me? Could it be that Yin Mo has another boyfriend other than you?¡±


    After a pause, the corners of Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly. ¡°Or do you think I could make a child with her?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words were sarcastic, but there was nothing wrong with them. It was indeed inappropriate for him to question Yin Xun like that.


    Si Fan was speechless. He looked at Yin Xun and frowned.


    !!


    Seeing him like this, Yin Xun found it funny. She did not expect Si Fan to ask such a stupid question.


    Si Fan frowned and stared at Yin Xun with a gloomy gaze. After looking at Yin Xun for a moment, Si Fan took two steps forward and got closer to Yin Xun. He looked like he was about to attack.


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression did not change, but she was highly focused and began to be on guard against Si Fan. Although there were many people here, with Si Fan¡¯s personality, he might really attack. After all, it was not like he had not done it before.


    However, what Yin Xun was worried about did not happen. Si Fan did not make a move.


    Yin Xun sneered and was bored. She retracted his gaze and was about to leave.


    ¡°Yin Xun, I¡¯m your sister¡¯s boyfriend. If I remember correctly, I didn¡¯t offend you in the past. Why have you been going against me ever since you came back? Could it be because of what Xing Cheng did to you? I can explain those things. I¡¯m not targeting you.¡± Si Fan suddenly changed his tone and tried explaining to Yin Xun.


    ¡°Against you?¡± Yin Xun frowned slightly and looked at Si Fan in confusion.


    Si Fan nodded and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you open Xintao Company to target me? Your Yin family¡¯s main job should be in the construction industry. If not for me, why would you suddenly start an online company?¡±


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s question, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Target you? Si Fan, who do you think you are? Although our Yin family isn¡¯t a top-notch tycoon, we¡¯re much stronger than your Si family. You¡¯re not worthy of my attention. What I want to do is my own business. It has nothing to do with you. Don¡¯t flatter yourself.


    ¡°By the way, this is a fair competition. After all, the cake is so big. It¡¯s normal for me to want a piece. As for you, how you develop in the end will depend on your ability. I¡¯m not interested in you. Go and find your Yin Mo. I¡¯m very busy. There are many business matters waiting for me to deal with. Goodbye.¡±


    After Yin Mo finished speaking, she ignored Si Fan and left.


    To be able to talk so much to him was already Yin Xun¡¯s limit. Si Fan and Yin Mo were a pair of weirdos. Let them digest the words internally. Her main task now was to get money and a career. She did not want to be disturbed by these unrelated people.


    After being insulted by Yin Xun, Si Fan wanted to flare up, but he could not think of a suitable reason. Yin Xun was right. It was normal for there to be competition in business. Moreover, Yin Xun had never done anything to Blue Fox openly.


    Moreover, this was the entrance of the hospital. There were so many people here. If he did anything to Yin Xun, he would easily attract trouble.


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s departing figure, Si Fan¡¯s gaze gradually turned vicious. His lowered hands clenched into fists.


    He was not stupid. He knew Yin Xun¡¯s tricks. Since he could not do anything on the surface, he would secretly cause trouble behind their backs. Since Yin Xun had already made it clear that the two of them were competitors, she could not blame him for not respecting their past relationship.


    As long as Yin Mo was by his side, he would have a way to deal with Yin Xun.


    With a cold snort, Si Fan walked into the hospital and took the elevator to Si Xia¡¯s ward.


    On the way here, Si Xia called him again, sounding anxious and aggrieved. Initially, he was wondering why Si Xia was acting so abnormally, but when he saw Yin Xun coming to the hospital, he understood that it was all Yin Xun¡¯s doing.


    Yin Mo was also in this hospital at the moment. He would look for Yin Mo after he had calmed Si Xia down.


    When he arrived at the door of the ward, Si Xia¡¯s door was not closed tightly, leaving a gap open. Si Fan was about to open the door when he suddenly heard the sounds of an argument inside. He wanted to listen to what was going on at the door first, but because he was moving too fast, the door was pushed open.


    At this moment, Si Xia was sitting on the hospital bed, covering her face and crying while Yin Mo stood by the side helplessly.


    Si Fan did not expect Yin Mo to be with Si Xia. When he thought about how Si Xia usually hated Yin Mo, Si Fan suddenly felt a headache coming on. It seemed like Si Xia was going to cause trouble again.

 Chapter 202 - 202 Rescue

    202 Rescue


    However, at this point, it was useless to say anything else. He could only pray that the woman was really not dead so that he could try his best to protect his cousin.


    Yuan Dong ruffled his hair in frustration. The phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He walked to a corner to answer it, only to find out that Zhu Meng had called his brother and couldn¡¯t get through.


    Yuan Dong did not dare to speak carelessly. He only said that there was an accident here. The woman Brother Wen brought with him was injured and was about to be sent to the hospital.


    On the other end of the line, Zhu Meng¡¯s brows were tightly knitted together as he asked anxiously, ¡°Woman? What woman? Is her name Shi Jing?¡±


    !!


    ¡°Yes, that¡¯s her name.¡± Yuan Dong asked in surprise, ¡°Big Brother, is this woman very important?¡±


    ¡°Of course she¡¯s important!¡± Zhu Meng gritted his teeth and ordered, ¡°Tell me which hospital you¡¯re going to later. Keep in touch with me on the phone at all times, or I¡¯ll break your legs if we lose contact!¡±


    ¡°Yes, yes, yes!¡± Yuan Dong did not dare to lower his guard anymore. Although he was on the other end of the phone, he still bowed deeply to the wall, as if this was the only way to express his loyalty to Zhu Meng.


    When the call ended, he felt a chill in his heart. Yuan Dong turned around at a loss, only to find that his cousin, who had just fallen to the ground, had already disappeared without a trace.


    He smiled bitterly, put away the phone, and walked back to his room.


    Zhu Wen was still mechanically resuscitating the woman, who was either dead or unconscious. He turned a deaf ear to what had just happened outside the door.


    ¡°Brother Wen,¡± Yuan Dong called out worriedly. Then, he slowly walked to a distance that was neither close nor far away from the two of them, but he did not dare to take another step closer.


    In his opinion, Zhu Wen was no different from giving artificial respiration to a corpse. The scene was terrifying.


    Zhu Wen¡¯s hand moved slightly as he pressed her chest. His voice was terrifyingly hoarse. ¡°My brother called?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Yuan Dong scratched his fingers in fear and stammered, ¡°The ambulance should be here soon. Brother Wen, I didn¡¯t call the police.¡±


    Although he and Zhang Cheng were not too close, they were still blood-related cousins. In addition, he had personally brought him over. If something happened, he still wanted to protect Zhang Cheng. Otherwise, he would be sad when the elders in the family were involved.


    Fortunately, Zhu Wen did not seem to have thought of calling the police to arrest Zhang Cheng. He retracted his hand tiredly and wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve. He panted heavily and said, ¡°It¡¯s fine. Shi Jing asked for it.¡±


    ¡°Brother Wen¡­¡± Yuan Dong was still a little worried. He tentatively glanced at the motionless girl on the bed, but when he saw her pale face, he immediately retracted his gaze. ¡°I didn¡¯t tell Brother Meng the truth just now. I only said that something happened and caused the woman you brought to be injured.¡±


    Zhu Wen was silent for a moment. Then, he sat on the ground dejectedly and stared blankly at the motionless woman on the bed. ¡°That¡¯s good too. When Shi Jing wakes up, there won¡¯t be anything serious. There¡¯s no need to tell my brother.¡±


    Yuan Dong endured it and wanted to tell Zhu Wen that Shi Jing might really be dead, but he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.


    At this moment, Zhu Wen¡¯s mood was clearly not normal. If he still did not know what was good for him and added fuel to the fire, when the fire burned him, it would not be fun!


    Zhu Wen and Zhu Meng were able to control so many businesses in G City at such a young age not only because they had a good father, but also because they were ruthless and had endless methods.


    Rapid footsteps came from the corridor. Yuan Dong quickly went to open the door and asked the medical staff to bring Shi Jing back to the hospital for emergency treatment.


    During the journey from the suite to the ambulance, Yuan Dong had been holding Zhu Wen¡¯s arm because he was worried that if he let go, the lifeless man beside him would not even be able to stand steadily.


    He suddenly could not help but wonder if Zhu Wen had really fallen in love with a woman like Shi Jing who would cheat on him.


    If that was the case, Zhu Wen would probably find trouble with Zhang Cheng when he came back to his senses!


    Yuan Dong felt a headache when he thought of his cousin who was lustful and did not know what was important. However, Zhu Wen was sitting beside him now, and he had yet to find a chance to inform his family.


    The Zhu family¡¯s power was immense. At this time, the best solution might be to turn himself in at the police station. Being sentenced to manslaughter by the law was better than being in the hands of the Zhu brothers.


    However, time did not allow him to let his imagination run wild. The ambulance drove very quickly on the road and arrived at the hospital in a short while.


    Yuan Dong worked with the medical staff to carry Shi Jing¡¯s stretcher out of the ambulance and put her on the bed. Then, he reached out and pulled Zhu Wen, who was still in a daze behind him. He coughed dryly and said, ¡°Brother Wen, if you can¡¯t take it anymore, you can go back first. Brother Meng is looking for you.¡±


    ¡°No need.¡± Zhu Wen woke up and followed the team heading to the emergency room with a dark expression. It was not until the operating lights lit up that he fell into a chair as if he had lost all his strength. He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.

 Chapter 203 - 203 Do You Want A Child?

    203 Do You Want A Child?


    No matter how slow Yin Mo was, she still noticed Si Fan¡¯s abnormal attitude. She opened her mouth and asked aggrievedly, ¡°Fan, do you not want me to get pregnant?¡±


    After Yin Mo asked this, Si Xia immediately perked up her ears and stared at Si Fan.


    Si Fan subconsciously wanted to answer yes, but just as the words were about to leave his mouth, he suddenly remembered that he still had many ways to make use of Yin Mo in the future. He immediately changed his mind. ¡°How can that be? Mo¡¯er, I love you so much. We¡¯re going to get married in the future. How can I not want you to get pregnant? The thing is, you know my current situation, right? The company¡¯s development has not been smooth recently. Now that your sister is picking a fight with me, I¡¯m exhausted.¡±


    ¡°As you can see, I¡¯m extremely busy every day. If I make any mistakes, the company¡¯s development will be over. Do you want our child to have a rough life right after being born? When the company stabilizes and your sister doesn¡¯t make things difficult for me, we can have a child in peace.¡±


    !!


    Yin Mo was moved by Si Fan¡¯s words. She knew about Yin Xun¡¯s company and how dejected Si Fan had been lately. Hence, she did not doubt Si Fan¡¯s words. Instead, her heart ached for Si Fan.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know if I¡¯m pregnant or not. The test results aren¡¯t out yet. We¡¯ll know soon. But what if I¡¯m really pregnant?¡± Yin Mo asked Si Fan weakly.


    Looking at Yin Mo¡¯s expectant gaze, Si Fan turned his head and looked at Si Xia. As expected, Si Xia was staring at him furiously.


    Si Fan sighed and put on a pained expression to comfort her. ¡°Mo¡¯er, didn¡¯t you say that the results aren¡¯t out yet? We¡¯ll decide when the results are out.¡±


    ¡°Then I¡­¡± Before Yin Mo could finish, she was interrupted.


    ¡°Go back and wait for the results. I have something to tell Xiaxia.¡±


    With Si Fan¡¯s urging, Yin Mo left Si Xia¡¯s ward.


    After Yin Mo closed the door of the ward, Si Fan¡¯s gaze suddenly darkened.


    He was not in the mood to act lovey-dovey with Yin Mo. The reason he was so patient with Yin Mo was that Yin Mo was the most convenient tool to deal with Yin Xun.


    Seeing that Si Fan was not siding with her, Si Xia cried and said, ¡°Brother, Yin Mo not only provoked me, she even hit me and threatened me. Look, my face is swollen!¡± As she spoke, Si Xia tilted her head to let Si Fan see the half of her face that was hit.


    Si Fan turned to look at her. He had not noticed that there was a clear palm print on Si Xia¡¯s face when he came in. Half of her face was a little swollen. It seemed like the offender did not hold back. However, this palm print¡­


    ¡°Brother, Yin Mo isn¡¯t as gentle as she appears to be in front of you. Before you came, she even said that she wanted to kill me¡­¡± Si Fan¡¯s gaze was suddenly dark. Si Xia was frightened by his behavior. Her voice became softer and softer until it was almost silent.


    ¡°Xiaxia, it¡¯s enough to lie once. A second time is too much.¡± Seeing the palm print, Si Fan recalled the time he was scalded by Yin Xun¡¯s hot water in the hospital. Back then, it was also because Si Xia said that he had been attacked.


    Who was Si Fan? When had he ever been defeated by a woman?


    However, he had suffered a huge loss at Yin Xun¡¯s hands back then. Yin Xun injured him, but in the end, he was the one sent to prison.


    At the thought of this, Si Fan felt his chest tighten. No matter how hard he tried, his chest hurt from holding it in.


    Hence, when he saw Si Xia lie again, he felt especially frustrated.


    ¡°Brother, why don¡¯t you believe me anymore? Do you think that Yin Mo wouldn¡¯t do such a thing and that I¡¯m lying to you? Didn¡¯t you see the knife in her hand? She threatened to kill me!¡± Si Xia looked at Si Fan with tears in her eyes and asked, ¡°You were happy when you heard that Yin Mo was pregnant, weren¡¯t you? You really like her, so everything you said to me before was a lie, right¡­ Cough cough¡­¡±


    The more Si Xia spoke, the more agitated she became. In the end, she started coughing. Because she coughed too hard, her face became abnormally pale.


    At first, Si Fan thought that Si Xia was pretending and did not take it seriously. He just stood at the side and looked at her coldly. It was only when Si Xia had difficulty breathing and looked at him with a pained expression that he realized that Si Xia was not acting. She was genuinely ill.


    ¡°Xiaxia!¡± Si Fan quickly walked to Si Xia¡¯s side and pressed the button to call the doctor.


    After the doctor came over, he let Si Xia inhale oxygen for a while. When Si Xia¡¯s condition recovered a little, the doctor fed her her medicine and checked to make sure that Si Xia¡¯s body was fine before leaving.

 Chapter 204 - Chapter 204: Touched

    Chapter 204: Touched


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Xiaxia, your body is too weak. You can¡¯t let yourself get too emotional. Don¡¯t look for Yin MO again in the future. Take good care of your body.¡± Si Fan gently caressed Si Xia¡¯s face. The palm print was clearly imprinted on her face. Si Xia was originally fair-skinned, so the palm print was especially shocking.


    Si Xia threw a tantrum and brushed Si Fan¡¯s hand away. ¡°You only have Yin MO in your heart. When have you ever cared for me? I don¡¯t need your concern. It¡¯s better if I die. After I die, you can take the Si family¡¯s assets and be with Yin MO forever!¡±


    Upon hearing Si Xia¡¯s words, Si Fan¡¯s expression instantly turned ugly, and the hand that was caressing Si Xia¡¯s face froze.


    Si Xia saw Si Fan¡¯s reaction and cried, ¡°As expected, that¡¯s what you thought, right? You really fell in love with that b*tch Yin Mo. Have you forgotten how my parents asked you to take care of me back then? Have you forgotten your promise to me? Brother, did you really treat me well in the past just because of the Si family¡¯s assets?¡±


    Si Xia cried until she was out of breath. Without waiting for Si Fan to reply, she continued, ¡°I won¡¯t let that b*tch Yin MO have her way. Even if I die, I won¡¯t let her touch the Si family¡¯s assets. As long as I don¡¯t say anything, the higher-ups of the Si family won¡¯t allow outsiders to touch them¡­¡±


    ¡°Xiaxia, do you really don¡¯t trust me at all? I¡¯ve told you before that I have no feelings for Yin Mo. I¡¯m being so nice to her now for your sake. She has something you need. You don¡¯t have to worry about her at all. Even if she¡¯s pregnant, I won¡¯t let her give birth.¡± Si Fan gently wiped away Si Xia¡¯s tears.


    Si Xia was touched by Si Fan¡¯s gentleness. ¡°Brother¡­¡±


    Before Si Xia could continue, Si Fan interrupted her. ¡°Since you already know my where I stand, no matter what news you hear in the future, don¡¯t make a fuss. Everything I do is for the sake of our future.¡±


    Si Fan looked at the time and frowned. He helped Si Xia lie down and covered her with the blanket before instructing, ¡°Stay here and rest well. If you have any problems, look for a doctor. I¡¯ve been very busy recently and can¡¯t take care of you all the time. I¡¯ll come over to see you after this matter is over. Don¡¯t make a fuss because of Yin MO again.¡±


    After saying that, Si Fan did not give Si Xia any time to speak and directly left the ward.


    He knew that once Si Xia opened her mouth, he would not be able to leave again.


    Before leaving the hospital, Si Fan went to look for Yin MO and comforted her. He instructed Yin MO to inform him as soon as the results were out, and then left the hospital.


    After Yin Xun returned to the company from the hospital, Mi Jin came over to look for her. He reported the situation at Blue Fox Company to her. ¡°President Yin, Blue Fox is acting very fast. About an hour after you left, Blue Fox had already announced their promotional event. I thought that they would only release the notice a few days later.¡±


    ¡°Blue Fox¡¯s event will not bring them any losses. Of course, it¡¯s better to announce it as soon as possible,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Mi Jin was puzzled. ¡°Is it to attract customers and prevent them from being lured by our discounts? However, Blue Fox¡¯s discounts are quite underwhelming. The customers will realize that as long as they calculate carefully. So, it¡¯s useless even if they announce the event early. It might even cause the opposite effect.¡±


    The customers were not fools. They just wanted to collect the coupons and be done with it. Other than those rich users who did not care about coupons at all, the remaining users would definitely compare the discounts before using them.


    If they discovered Blue Fox¡¯s little trick, it would backfire.


    In reaction to Mi Jin¡¯s question, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°We know that Blue Fox is exploiting their customers because you took their discount plan directly from the main computer. The customers, meanwhile, can only see the great discounts. As for other things like the increase of price, deduction of the user¡¯s money, and exploitation, we will only know on the day the event begins.¡±


    ¡°Then what should we do? Looks like the situation is very passive for us. If Blue Fox¡¯s users think that buying from Blue Fox is the same as us, our customer flow will be greatly reduced. After all, there are not enough new users. Most of them are from Blue Fox.¡± Mi Jin could not help but worry when he heard Yin Xun¡¯s analysis.


    ¡°President Yin, the situation is urgent. How can you still smile? If we are fighting an economic war now and lose, then what will happen to your funds? Our future development in Xintao all depends on our starting progress..¡±

 Chapter 205 - Chapter 205: A New Business Service

    Chapter 205: A New Business Service


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Listening to Mi Jin¡¯s concerns, Yin Xun did not seem anxious at all. She lowered her head and pondered for a moment before slowly saying, ¡°This question is very simple. We¡¯ve been burning money from the beginning. Looking at Si Fan¡¯s reaction now, he has the same plan. Since that¡¯s the case, we¡¯ll continue to increase the discounts and simplify the procedure of obtaining coupons.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s idea scared Mi Jin. Their discount was already big enough. If it was increased any further, it would be very disadvantageous to Xintao.


    It would be fine if they won in the end, but if they lost, Yin Xun¡¯s life would be over. Even if Yin Xun had Fang Yao¡¯s financial support, it was not foolproof.


    Mi Jin said awkwardly, ¡°Why don¡¯t we get the media to expose them? Even if it¡¯s not very effective, it can still affect Blue Fox to a certain extent. It¡¯s safer than us increasing the discount.¡±


    ¡°If the Internet was fully developed, your method would be very useful. Unfortunately, the Internet is not developed now, and the media¡¯s influence is not that great.¡± Yin Xun said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what to do with this matter. I won¡¯t do anything rash. Also, now is the period of rapid development of mobile phones. In the future, it will soon enter the era of data and telecommunication. We have to make some preparations before the new media becomes mainstream.¡±


    Now that smartphones had recently appeared, all of their functions were not perfect. There were also various restrictions on the Internet. Everyone mainly used computers, which was very inconvenient. Yin Xun thought that this period was very similar to the era of her original world decades ago. Looking at the development progress now, it would not be long before it entered the full-intelligence stage.


    Before the internet trend arrived, she still had her business, and it was just right for her to prepare now. At the same time, it could also assist the development of Xintao.


    Yin Xun was thinking all this to herself. Mi Jin, who was listening from the side, was confused. He could not help but ask, ¡°What do you mean by the new media?¡±


    Facing Mi Jin¡¯s confusion, Yin Xun only replied, ¡°It¡¯s a little troublesome to explain it to you now. You¡¯ll know when the time comes. I plan to set up another video website. Mi Jin, can you handle it?¡±


    ¡°There are already many video websites, and they¡¯re all at the mature stage. Although it¡¯s easy to make websites, we won¡¯t be able to gain any advantage against so many mature websites.¡± Mi Jin frowned.


    Yin Xun shook her head and said, ¡°It¡¯s not an ordinary video website, but an app for short videos. It focuses on using phones and completely gives up on computer users. There are no television dramas or movies for this short video app, so we don¡¯t need to consider buying the copyright or getting a membership. We just need to rope in the users and let them make short videos to be released within a few minutes. There¡¯s no threshold, and there¡¯s no need to spend money. As long as the users post videos, there¡¯s a chance to make money.¡±


    Mi Jin had never heard of such a thing before. She asked, ¡°What kind of short video? What if the short video infringes on basic rights? Also, since we don¡¯t plan to introduce drama series or open a membership, what is our source of income? Since it¡¯s a short video that lasts only a few minutes, it¡¯s not appropriate to insert advertisements.¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. I¡¯ll make a proposal when I get back. After


    I¡¯m done, you¡¯ll know the entire process. Once the short video app is activated, our benefits will multiply by several times. It will be quite profitable.¡± Yin Xun smiled slightly.


    Mi Jin said, ¡°President Yin, ever since I came here, you seem to have said these kinds of fancy words many times already. No matter what project it is, you will always say this. I always feel that¡­ you are making empty promises¡­¡±


    Although Mi Jin did not want to doubt Yin Xun, Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts were too wild. There were many things that he had never even heard of. Even if what Yin Xun said made sense, it was difficult enough for Xintao to fight against Blue Fox. If they were to start a new project now, it would be over if the capital chain was cut off.


    Even if the Fang family was very rich, they would not give their money to Yin Xun casually. After all, businessmen valued profit the most.


    Mi Jin was very worried, but he did not know how to persuade Yin Xun. He was only Yin Xun¡¯s employee, and listening to his boss was the most important thing.


    ¡°Sigh, all of you young people¡­ The first person to eat crabs must have had a hard time, but the rewards were also very great. Don¡¯t worry, I know my limits. Even if I go bankrupt, I won¡¯t make life hard for you. Moreover, a boss is a failure if they don¡¯t know how to come up with unrealistic promises.¡±


    There was one thing that Yin Xun did not mention. Whether it was Blue Fox¡¯s tricks or the development of the new media, she had experienced all of them.


    Before they got off work, Yin Xun instructed Mi Jin to keep an eye on Blue Fox. If they cheated their users, they would leave evidence and file a lawsuit with the Consumer Protection Association.


    After leaving the company, Yin Xun went straight to the flower market..

    Chapter 206: I¡¯m Sure You¡¯ll Like It

    Now that Fang Yao was her biggest backer, there were many things she needed money for in the future. She had to suck up to him so that she could ask him for more help in the future.


    The best way to curry favor was to give gifts. Yin Xun was very experienced in the ways of the world.


    After buying what she wanted, Yin Xun returned to her villa in the suburbs.


    When she was about to reach Fang Yao¡¯s house, Yin Xun took a look. Seeing that there was no one near the villa, she stepped on the accelerator and sped up. When she reached Fang Yao¡¯s house, she deliberately looked into the courtyard. There was no one there, so she was finally relieved.


    After returning home and parking the car, Yin Xun brought her things back to the house and lay down on the sofa, preparing to sleep for a while before packing up for dinner.


    However, just as she lay down, the doorbell rang.


    She glanced at the screen and saw the butler standing outside.


    ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master has just prepared dinner. When he saw that you were back, he invited you over to have dinner together.¡± The butler smiled as he looked at Yin Xun.


    Recently, Yin Xun had been eating at their place after work. She did not go today and did not even greet him today. Fang Yao asked the butler to invite Yin Xun over for dinner. Although he did not say why, the butler knew the reason, so he smiled warmly.


    Yin Xun did not expect the butler to personally come and invite her over. Moreover, the reason was nothing other than to have a meal together.


    Thinking of Fang Yao, Yin Xun could not help but shiver. She said, ¡°Uncle Butler, please help me tell Fang Yao that I bought some food on the way back, so I won¡¯t be going today. I¡¯ll go over next time.¡±


    After Yin Xun rejected him, the butler did not leave. Instead, he smiled as he looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master said that even if you will not go over to eat, you still have to continue exercising today. Young Master went out of his way to prepare the best nutritional meal for you. Not only does it help with losing weight, but it is also delicious and nutritious.¡±


    As expected, after interacting with her for a long time, Fang Yao got to know Yin Xun better and saw through her thoughts.


    She had no choice. Since the butler had already said this much, Yin Xun could only follow him dejectedly. Before she left, she did not forget to take the gift box she had prepared.


    As soon as she entered the villa, Yin Xun saw Fang Yao standing in the middle of the living room. He was holding his phone and seemed to have just finished a call.


    ¡°Let¡¯s eat first. After that, we¡¯ll continue training. Starting today, I¡¯ll teach you self-protection skills. Even if you can¡¯t beat others, you can at least have a higher chance of escaping if there¡¯s danger,¡± Fang Yao said directly when he saw Yin Xun.


    ¡®You¡¯re teaching me self-protection skills?¡± Yin Xun asked in surprise.


    Had he not said that he would hire a teacher back then? Why was Fang Yao the one teaching her?


    The butler laughed and interrupted, ¡°Miss Yin, no one is more suitable than our


    Young Master when it comes to teaching you self-defense skills.¡±


    Yin Xun was puzzled by this and was about to continue asking when she was interrupted by Fang Yao. He had looked at the box in Yin Xun¡¯s hand and asked, ¡°This is¡­¡±


    ¡°This is a gift for you. I¡¯m sure that you will like it very much.¡± Yin Xun handed the box to Fang Yao. ¡°Open it and take a look.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao expectantly, like a child waiting for an adult¡¯s praise.


    Thinking of the gift that Yin Xun had given him in the past, Fang Yao did not have any expectations for this box.


    Yin Xun was good at doing business, but she knew nothing about relationships. Fang Yao¡¯s behavior toward her already showed many signs, but she did not pick up on them at all.


    There was also the possibility that Yin Xun did not like him at all, but they were still business partners. If he made it too obvious, it would create a barrier between the two of them in the future. This was also the reason why Fang Yao had never made his feelings clear.


    However, although he was not looking forward to it, Fang Yao still took the box. The box was very big and heavy. Although it had not been opened yet, Fang Yao could already vaguely guess what it was.


    When he opened it, it was just as he had expected. Yin Xun had given him another pot of flowers. Oh, no, this time, it was not regular flowers, but mint.


    ¡°The mint flowers are very beautiful. If you raise them well, you can add a few mint leaves to your fruit juice or wine at any time in the future. They¡¯ll taste even better. This is both good for viewing and eating. There are very few stalls selling mint, especially when they¡¯re in bloom. I searched for a long time before I found them.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was a little smug.


    Fang Yao looked in the direction of his bedroom. There was an entire shelf of flowers on the balcony of his bedroom. They were all gifts from Yin Xun. Ever since he said that he liked flowers the other day, Yin Xun had bought flowers for him whenever she could. Now, there were so many flowers that he could almost start a flower shop..

 Chapter 207 - Chapter 207: Still Be On Guard

    Chapter 207: Still Be On Guard


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Although he was a little disappointed, it was within Fang Yao¡¯s expectations. At least, Yin Xun took his words to heart.


    ¡°I like it a lot. I¡¯ll take good care of it. Let¡¯s eat first. After that, we¡¯ll start training,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao with a pitiful expression and said, ¡°Look, I¡¯ve already given you a gift. Can you reduce today¡¯s training?¡±


    She had not exercised for a long time. Recently, she had suddenly exercised and her body could not take it at all. She was exhausted and her limbs were sore.


    ¡°So you had a motive when getting me a gift?¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and said lightly.


    Yin Xun quickly explained, ¡°No, no. Of course, I¡¯m giving it to you sincerely. Alright, let¡¯s start after dinner¡­¡±


    Her tone was slightly sullen.


    Seeing Yin Xun like this, Fang Yao¡¯s interest was piqued. He realized that he seemed to have fun teasing Yin Xun.


    The food at Fang Yao¡¯s house was as delicious as ever. Even though it was a diet and fitness meal, Yin Xun could not help but go for extra servings.


    After dinner, Yin Xun told Fang Yao that she could not exercise immediately. While she was digesting the food, she told Fang Yao about her idea of running a short video app.


    ¡°You mean that you want to raise a group of video bloggers and have them grow with Xintao?¡¯ Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. This idea was very advanced.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. Xintao is a combination of shopping and social media software. However, this kind of software is not suitable for developing short videos because it will be messy if there are too many types. That won¡¯t be very friendly to the elderly. Also, students will surely use our dating software in the future. Shopping is fine because the money is managed by the parents.¡±


    ¡°However, short videos can be watched as long as you have an account. Students have very low self-control. If we indulge in short videos every day , our platform will definitely be reported by our parents. If that happens, it will have a huge impact on Xintao. Therefore, it¡¯s better to separate the various functions from the beginning.¡±


    This was because smartphones had only just appeared on the market. Much of the software was not perfect, and there was only one type of software right now. Even the shopping software was owned by Blue Fox. Right now, although it would be very stressful for the two types to develop together, once they began to mature, their income would be doubled.


    Fang Yao lowered his head and thought for a moment before asking, ¡°Xintao¡¯s development route is very clear, but what¡¯s the operation and income of short videos like?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Of course, we¡¯ll pay for the early operations. We¡¯ll give the profits to the blogger who registered and posted the videos. The profits are related to the number of views and subscribers. Later on, in order to earn more money, the bloggers will naturally cut out the popular videos. This way, it can attract more ordinary users.


    ¡°Once there are more users, we¡¯ll start recruiting. After we gradually stabilize, we can even get the advertisers to contact the bloggers directly. It can be considered to be mutually beneficial. By then, we won¡¯t have to worry about not having a source of income.¡±


    This business idea was similar to the one used by television stations and newspapers.


    Fang Yao could not help but feel surprised by Yin Xun¡¯s suggestion. He had always known that Yin Xun had many ideas, but he did not expect her to have so many. He realized that Yin Xun was even more interesting than he had imagined.


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes narrowed as he looked at Yin Xun. He had other thoughts in his mind.


    ¡°That¡¯s a good idea. When do you plan to implement it?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao with a smile and said in a flattering tone, ¡°Yes, actually, I can start at any time. There¡¯s only one question left¡­¡±


    Seeing Yin Xun like this, Fang Yao immediately understood what she meant, but he pretended not to know. ¡°What is it?¡±


    ¡°Uh, actually, it¡¯s nothing. It¡¯s just that the preparations aren¡¯t done yet. We need to¡­ we need to sign with bloggers who have potential. This is relatively difficult. After all, we can¡¯t let the website be empty when it¡¯s launched¡­¡± Yin Xun smiled embarrassedly. Halfway through her sentence, she changed the topic.


    As Fang Yao was rich and was her biggest financier, she knew that if she told him directly that she was short of money, he would definitely invest in her project. Moreover, her relationship with Fang Yao was quite good now. Other than business cooperation, she thought that the two of them had already become friends, and they could discuss many things with each other openly.


    However, there was one thing that she had never forgotten. It was taboo to make friends without reservations in the business world. Si Fan and Mi Jin were good examples. Even if the history between the two of them was only because of their personal issues, in Yin Xun¡¯s original world, there were many other examples of so-called good friends and business partners falling apart.


    Yin Xun trusted Fang Yao¡¯s character very much, but there was an old saying that you should be wary of others if you did not plan to harm them. Yin Xun would willingly swear that she would never betray Fang Yao, but it was still best to be on guard with him..

    Therefore, it was best not to get involved with Fang Yao in this project. As for the problem of investments, it seemed that she needed to think of another way. If there was really no one else, she would eventually come to him again.


    After much consideration, Yin Xun still did not reveal the reason. First of all, she was wary. Secondly, Fang Yao had invested more than enough in Xintao. She really could not bear to continue scamming¡­ Ahem, she could not bear to continue asking for help from Fang Yao.


    If she wanted to do something big, she could not go without the sense of crisis that should come with it. She was not a silly girl mingling with the domineering CEOs. She wanted to be a proper female lead in a business.


    Yin Xun casually found an excuse. Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun. Although he knew that Yin Xun was not telling the truth, he did not ask further.


    When the butler saw that the two of them had only been discussing work since dinner, he could not help but feel a little anxious.


    He knew what Fang Yao was thinking about Yin Xun, but he had never expressed it. Yin Xun was not sensitive in this aspect, to begin with. If Fang Yao did not say anything either, how long would it take for the two of them to get together?


    If someone else snagged Yin Xun first in the future, the young master would have no excuse to cry.


    ¡°Blue Fox has also started to warm up their promotional activities. Now, not only are Blue Fox¡¯s own users staying, but some new users have also been lured over. Have you thought of how to deal with it?¡± Fang Yao changed the topic.


    ¡°There¡¯s something fishy with their activities, but it¡¯s useless to look for the media to report it. Their promotional event hasn¡¯t started yet. If we report them now, it will just backfire if they change it at the last minute. What¡¯s more, people who like online shopping don¡¯t often dabble in traditional media, so the effect would be great. This is why I want to set up a short video website. It¡¯ll be easier to attract traffic for Xintao in the future. ¡®


    Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly. ¡°Since we have such good conditions now, let¡¯s play a big game.¡±


    ¡®What do you plan to do?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Since we¡¯ve decided to burn money from the start, let¡¯s go all out. Now that the company¡¯s liquidity is abundant, I¡¯m prepared to increase the discounts. For shopping platforms, there¡¯s no such thing as customer loyalty. They¡¯ll go wherever it¡¯s cheaper. If we do this, Si Fan only has two choices. He¡¯ll either lose a lot of users, or he has to increase the discounts and compete with us. Then, he¡¯ll be playing into our hands.¡±


    In any case, Fang Yao was Xintao¡¯s financial support, and Si Fan was alone and helpless. Yin Xun was not concerned at all when it came to burning money.


    ¡°By the way, after the short video website is established, do you want to be among the first batch of registrants? It doesn¡¯t require any skill to post videos. With your looks and temperament, perhaps any video you post can become popular. If that happens, you¡¯ll be one of the first internet celebrities.¡±


    After talking about Blue Fox, Yin Xun saw Fang Yao looking at her and immediately became nervous. She was afraid that Fang Yao would ask her to train some more, so she quickly started another topic.


    ¡°Is that what you think?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and looked at Yin Xun, as if surprised by what she said.


    Yin Xun did not understand his reaction. Just as she was about to open her mouth to ask about it, the butler smiled and asked, ¡°Miss Yin, are you implying that our Young Master is good-looking?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Of course. Fang Yao is so handsome that he¡¯s more than capable to be a celebrity. If he tries, he¡¯ll definitely attract many female fans.¡±


    ¡°In that case, does that mean that he suits your aesthetic taste?¡± The butler pressed.


    ¡°In front of absolute beauty, there is no difference when it comes to taste.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s praise was heartfelt.


    Fang Yao was indeed the young master of the Fang family. He was a big shot hidden in the original novel. He was even more handsome than Si Fan. Even if Fang Yao was an ordinary person and did not have the benefit of a strong family background, he could easily make a name for himself.


    She really wanted to sign a contract with Fang Yao. It would be a pity for his good looks to stay behind the scenes.


    However, she also knew that Fang Yao had a big family business. He could not afford to attract fans in public. She was just thinking on a whim.


    She did not have much hope for Fang Yao to agree to this, but she suddenly had an idea. She could start looking for other talented and good-looking people to sign contracts with her short video platform.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s time for us to train.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun with a complicated gaze, but Yin Xun was lost in thought and did not notice.


    When she heard Fang Yao calling for her to train, she tried to struggle.. ¡°Ah, are we going to start now? Don¡¯t you want to rest a little longer¡­¡±

 Chapter 209 - Chapter 209: Yi Xun Was Miserable

    She tried to drag it out as long as she could. When she thought of the demonic training that Fang Yao had given her previously, Yin Xun felt worried.


    Fang Yao said lightly, ¡°In any case, the daily training time is fixed. If you start late, you end late. I¡¯m fine with anything. It¡¯s up to you.¡±


    ¡± ¡± Yin Xun¡¯s expression instantly became aggrieved.


    These words quickly snuffed out her plans of reducing the training time. Initially, she thought that since it was already nighttime, she could cut the training short. She did not expect Fang Yao to see through her.


    ¡°All right, we¡¯ll start after I go home and change. It¡¯s not the right outfit for exercise.¡±


    Yin Xun was just about to get up and return to change her clothes when she heard the butler say, ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master has already prepared sportswear for you. There are all kinds of styles and colors. I can bring you over to change your clothes now. You can choose whichever you want.¡±


    YinXun,


    She did not expect Fang Yao to be so insistent on making her train. He even prepared clothes for her!


    There was no other excuse to delay. Besides, this matter was beneficial to her in the first place. For Fang Yao to put in so much effort, he was being very kind.


    Feeling both aggrieved and grateful, Yin Xun went to the room with the butler to change her clothes.


    ¡°Miss Yin, this is the room that Young Master specially prepared for you. There are some things that you might need to use on a daily basis. If you need anything here, feel free to use it.¡± The butler smiled as he introduced the room to Yin Xun.


    Looking at the well-stocked room, Yin Xun said in surprise, ¡°l didn¡¯t expect


    Fang Yao to be so meticulous. He even gave me my own room.¡±


    ¡°After all, we are neighbors, and you often discuss business matters with Young Master. Now, you have to train together with him. If there are small matters that you have to head home for, it would just be a waste of time. Anyway, we have many rooms. If there is anything you need, you can settle it here. It would be more convenient. It is normal for neighbors to help each other, so you do not have to feel embarrassed, Miss Yin.¡±


    Before Yin Xun could say anything, the butler explained everything and comforted her. This stopped Yin Xun¡¯s imagination from running wild.


    The butler knew this was a good opportunity. If Yin Xun felt embarrassed and rejected the goodwill, it would be harder for Fang Yao and Yin Xun to make progress in the future.


    As expected, after the butler said this, Yin Xun accepted it calmly. ¡°Fang Yao is my friend. If he needs any help in the future, I will do my best to help him too.¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin, do you consider Young Master a good friend?¡± The corners of the butler¡¯s lips twitched.


    ¡°Of course, he¡¯s also my investor , ¡± Yin Xun hurriedly said.


    Butler ,


    With Yin Xun like this, the Young Master¡¯s future path would be very difficult indeed.


    Sighed in his heart, the butler said, ¡°Miss Yin, you can go ahead and change your clothes. I will leave now. If there is anything, you can just call me directly.¡±


    After saying that, the butler left the room and closed the door for Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun walked into the room and opened the wardrobe. Sure enough, there was a row of loose-fitting sportswear. There were all kinds of styles and colors. Yin Xun wondered if Fang Yao had bought all the sportswear.


    From this, it could be seen how determined Fang Yao was to train her. He had prepared so much because he was afraid that she would find an excuse to slack off.


    Although Fang Yao was being a little ruthless, it was beneficial and harmless to Yin Xun. Yin Xun sighed and took out a random piece of sportswear to change into. Unexpectedly, the size was just right.


    The butler, who was waiting outside, saw Yin Xun coming out and brought her to the gym in the basement with a smile.


    Fang Yao had already changed and was waiting for her inside. The butler left after bringing Yin Xun over.


    Not long after, Yin Xun¡¯s miserable screams were heard from inside.


    The butler, who was directing the servants outside, could not help but worry when he heard the screams coming from the basement. He knew how strong Fang Yao was. He was afraid that Fang Yao would not hold back.


    ¡°Young Master, Miss Yin is not like your male sparring partners. You must be careful when you make a move. Don¡¯t hurt her. Otherwise, it will be hard to get closer to Miss Yin in the future,¡± the butler muttered.


    The two of them stayed in the gym for almost two hours. Just as the butler was wondering if he should give Fang Yao a reminder, the door to the gym finally opened.


    Fang Yao helped Yin Xun walk out. Yin Xun¡¯s face was pale and her body was trembling. She could not even walk steadily.


    On the other hand, Fang Yao looked refreshed. Other than some sweat on the tip of his nose, he did not look tired at all..

    Chapter 210: What A Coincidence

    The butler looked at the two of them with a strange expression and did not say a word. Yin Xun¡¯s mind was filled with the training she had undergone just now and she did not notice the butler¡¯s expression. She was not in the mood to care about others.


    She finally understood why the butler claimed that Fang Yao was very strong. From the training just now, Yin Xun realized that Fang Yao was really good at hitting people.


    The two of them had done some stretching before they started. Once they were ready, Fang Yao took her to run on the treadmill for a while. After warming up, he began to teach her self-defense moves.


    It was alright when she was just being taught. He only asked her to move. After she memorized the movements, Fang Yao began to get physical with her.


    Fang Yao told her to think of him as a criminal, then proceeded to use all kinds of attack methods on her. While she was resisting his first move, she was attacked by Fang Yao again. The two of them went on like this and Fang Yao hit her with every move he tried. The pain was terrible.


    She even wondered if Fang Yao had been holding a grudge against her all along, and now was the perfect opportunity to vent it out.


    However, when she thought back to their past interactions, she concluded that she had never offended Fang Yao in any way. She had always been trying to please Fang Yao. In order to leave a good impression on him, she often gave him gifts, and they were all things that he liked!


    When the butler saw Yin Xun¡¯s expression, he immediately knew that Fang Yao had not held back when attacking her.


    He sighed internally and asked Yin Xun if she wanted to take a shower and have a bite of food.


    Yin Xun refused and went to rest for a while. When she felt a little better, she hastily went home. She was afraid that Fang Yao would ask her to do something more.


    Perhaps Fang Yao had seen through Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts. This time, he even personally escorted Yin Xun out.


    The butler was quite pleased with Fang Yao¡¯s performance. It seemed that he had finally learned how to act.


    The two of them walked to the entrance of the villa. Fang Yao told Yin Xun, ¡°Have a sports drink when you get back. Then take a hot bath and go straight to bed.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I hope I can leave the house alive tomorrow. If I don¡¯t, make sure to collect my corpse,¡± Yin Xun joked weakly.


    Fang Yao was still worried that Yin Xun would be angry at him. When he saw that she was still in the mood to joke around, he smiled and comforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. This little bit of exercise won¡¯t kill you. It will even make your body stronger. This is only the beginning. We¡¯ll slowly increase the amount after your body gets used to it. ¡®


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s words, Yin Xun¡¯s heart instantly turned cold. She said in despair, ¡°More? Young Master Fang, just let me die..


    Yin Xun closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. Seeing her reaction, Fang Yao was in a daze for a moment. When he came back to his senses, his hand was on Yin Xun¡¯s head.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao in confusion. Fang Yao had never done such an intimate action before. His sudden action left her stunned.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, you still owe me money. How could I let you die? I¡¯ll train you well so that you can live peacefully and help me earn more money.¡± After feeling awkward for a moment, Fang Yao rubbed Yin Xun¡¯s hair and comforted her half-jokingly.


    Yin Xun lowered her head and muttered, ¡°As expected of a businessman. You can even calculate such things so meticulously.¡±


    Her words were too soft for Fang Yao to hear. Just as he was about to ask Yin Xun what she was saying, a voice suddenly came from the side.


    ¡°Young Master Fang? What a coincidence. I didn¡¯t expect you to live here too!¡±


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun looked in the direction of the voice. When they saw who it was, the smile on Fang Yao¡¯s face suddenly turned cold. Yin Xun raised her eyebrows and was a little surprised to see who it was.


    The person who greeted Fang Yao was Liu Ying. She was walking over now.


    When she got closer, she looked at Yin Xun in surprise and said, ¡°Yin Xun, you¡¯re here too?¡±


    ¡°Uh-huh, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s hand was still gripping Fang Yao¡¯s arm. The two of them looked very close.


    Liu Ying¡¯s gaze fell on Yin Xun¡¯s hand and her expression changed. She forced a smile and said, ¡°1 have something to tell Young Master Fang.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and let go of Fang Yao. She smiled and said, ¡°Alright, you guys chat away. I¡¯m going back.


    After saying goodbye to Fang Yao, Yin Xun did not look at Liu Ying and walked straight to her house.


    The streetlights in the neighborhood were bright, and there were always security guards patrolling. Yin Xun was not afraid for her safety and slowly walked home.


    She had signed a contract with Fang Yao a long time ago, so she was not afraid that Liu Ying would use a honey trap on Fang Yao to confuse him. With the contract in hand, there was nothing to worry about.


    However, she had overlooked another problem..

    The next day, Yin Xun dragged her aching body to Xintao.


    Last night, Fang Yao had been ruthless to her. When she went back to take a shower, she looked in the mirror and realized that there were bruises on her body. She looked like she was injured.


    Of course, this was partially due to her fair skin. A tiny blemish on her skin would already be noticeable. This morning, she limped into the company. The employees were all looking at her, but she was no longer in the mood to care about what others thought.


    Before coming here, she had gone on a run with Fang Yao for a while. Now, she just needed to rest.


    Mi Jin came to her office and saw Yin Xun¡¯s expression. Shocked, he said,


    ¡°President Yin, why do seem to be exhausted every day? What¡¯s the matter?


    Were you so restless in the middle of the night and went to pick a fight?¡±


    Yin Xun sighed. ¡°Sigh, you¡¯re right. I fight every night now.¡±


    Despite her words, she was quite energetic. It was only her body that was tired.


    According to Fang Yao, it was normal to feel unwell in the beginning. After training for a long time and getting used to this routine, it would get better and better.


    ¡°I was just running my mouth. To think that you¡¯re actually fighting¡­ Could it be that you¡­¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun strangely.


    ¡°Because of my relationship with Si Fan, Fang Yao is now dragging me to practice self-defense every day so that I can protect myself. He¡¯s ruthless, so I was beaten up like this,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly.


    ¡°Oh, so it¡¯s actual training¡­¡± Mi Jin actually looked a little disappointed.


    ¡°?¡± Yin Xun looked at him in confusion. ¡°What else would it be?¡±


    ¡°Ahem¡­¡± Mi Jin coughed twice and quickly changed the topic. ¡°We¡¯ve already drafted a new promotional event. This is the proposal. Although the new promotion is indeed very attractive, it also means that our company will bear a huge cost. If we fail to defeat Blue Fox in the end, the company will be finished.¡±


    Yin Xun took the proposal and looked at it. The contents of the event were all requested by her.


    She had indeed considered the problem Mi Jin was talking about. She had done a few simulations for this business war and considered various aspects. In the end, the outcome was always positive.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m confident in this. We¡¯ll follow the plan and keep an eye on Blue Fox at all times. If there¡¯s anything new, you have to let me know immediately,¡± Yin Xun said reassuringly.


    Although Mi Jin was still worried, Yin Xun was the boss. As a subordinate, he had to listen to Yin Xun.


    ¡°Okay.¡± With that, Mi Jin turned around and walked out.


    ¡°Hey, wait!¡± Yin Xun thought of something and quickly stopped Mi Jin. ¡°By the way, after we settle the Xintao matter, you can study the short video software. It doesn¡¯t need too many functions. In the beginning, as long as the videos can be uploaded and watched, it¡¯s good enough. We¡¯ll slowly increase the other businesses. This way, it¡¯ll be easier to attract new users.¡±


    ¡°Alright, if there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll head back first.¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun sadly and left.


    He felt that he had been deceived by Yin Xun. Back then, Yin Xun had clearly said that he could rest after finishing the work with Xintao. In the end, he was assigned to the short video website again.


    Indeed, all the bosses in the world were the same.


    Yin Xun rested for a while before calling Mary over.


    ¡°Mary, we¡¯re going to start a new business soon. l¡¯, tasking you with finding some unique people. It doesn¡¯t; matter if they¡¯re beautiful or ugly; as long as they have their own unique style, you can sign them up. I plan to set up a short video website and I need some video bloggers to make some traffic for me.¡± Yin Xun handed the proposal she had organized to Mary.


    Now, she could focus on Xintao. Mary was temporarily in charge of the short video platform.


    Although Mary was only her assistant, Yin Xun was confident in her ability through observation.


    Mary was surprised. ¡°A new project? But aren¡¯t we working on Xintao now? A short video website? I¡¯ve never heard of this. What kind of person are we looking for, is this like a talent scout?¡±


    Yin Xun was about to explain when her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and saw that it was Wu Li.


    ¡°The specific details are written in the plan. You¡¯ll understand when you go back and take a look. If you have any questions, come and ask me.¡± Yin Xun waved her hand at Mary, indicating that she wanted to answer the call.


    Mary immediately caught on. She nodded and left with the proposal. At the same time, she gently closed the office door for Yin Xun..

    ¡°Mom, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Xun said after pressing the answer button.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just wanted to tell you that your sister isn¡¯t pregnant. She just hasn¡¯t rested well recently and has low blood sugar, so she vomited and fainted,¡± Wu Li explained.


    ¡°Oh, that seems like it¡¯s a pity for Yin Mo.¡± Yin Xun was not interested.


    ¡°Sigh, your sister is completely bewitched by Si Fan. After getting the results, she went to look for Si Fan again. Now, I¡¯m alone at home.¡± Wu Li¡¯s voice was a little bitter.


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°Isn¡¯t Yin Rui on summer vacation now? Isn¡¯t he at home


    Wu Li sighed and said, ¡°Sigh, that child has grown up and doesn¡¯t have discipline anymore. He went to his classmate¡¯s house and said that he was going to study. In the end, I noticed that he didn¡¯t even take his bag. His textbooks and homework were all inside. He hasn ¡®t taken them out since the holidays started.¡±


    Sighing again, Wu Li asked Yin Xun, ¡°You haven¡¯t been back for the past few days. Are you busy with work? Are you eating well? When I saw you at the hospital yesterday, I felt that you seemed to have lost weight. Sigh, it¡¯s not good if the child isn¡¯t by her parents¡¯ side. She wouldn¡¯t know how to take care of herself¡­ ¡±


    Yin Xun felt that Wu Li was behaving a little weirdly this time. Why did she suddenly start telling her this?


    ¡°Mom, we¡¯ve only been apart for a few days. Besides, Dad thinks I¡¯m fat. If you¡¯re really that bored, go shopping with your friends. I heard that a new mall has opened recently. You can go take a look,¡± Yin Xun said with an exasperated smile.


    She understood what Wu Li meant. Wu Li was lonely and wanted her to go home.


    As expected, she heard Wu Li reply in a low voice, ¡°It¡¯s fine. Go do your thing. Don¡¯t worry about Mom. Your father went to discuss business matters. Your brother went out to play. Your sister went to look for Si Fan. All of you are busy. It must be good to be busy¡­¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    Wu Li now felt like a resentful woman.


    ¡°Mom, I have nothing to do tonight. I¡¯ll go back and see you later,¡± Yin Xun said.


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to delay your work. Go ahead and do your stuff. When you have time one day, come home. Tell me in advance so that I can make you delicious food.¡± When she heard that Yin Xun wanted to go back to see her tonight, Wu Li rejected the offer, but Yin Xun could hear the happiness in her voice.


    ¡°I happen to have something to discuss with my father, so it¡¯s settled. I¡¯ll go back tonight. I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Wu Li agreed immediately. ¡°Alright, alright. Mommy will make whatever you


    The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.


    Two hours before Wu Li¡¯s call, Yin MO had gone out to look for Si Fan with the results of the checkup.


    Yin MO sat in the car and looked at the examination report in her hand with a conflicted expression.


    Yesterday, she was full of anticipation and was convinced that she was pregnant¡ªnot only did she feel like retching, but she also did not have her period. With so many indicators, it was difficult not to think she was pregnant.


    She thought that as long as she was pregnant, her marriage with Si Fan could be brought forward.


    She really wanted to marry Si Fan, but she had mentioned it many times, but Si Fan always refused on the grounds that his career was unstable and he could not give her a stable life. This reason was fine if it was for an ordinary girl, but who was she? She was the second daughter of the Yin family. Their family did not lack money. So what if Si Fan did not have money? She could just ask her father for it.


    All of Si Fan¡¯s considerations were for her sake. He could have obtained the Yin family¡¯s assets after marrying her, but he did not do so. Instead, he wanted to rely on his own power to give himself a happy life.


    Thinking of this, Yin Mo¡¯s heart was filled with sweet happiness.


    Si Fan was indeed the man she had given her heart to. Be it his appearance or personality, he was top-notch in all aspects. At the same time, she felt a sense of apprehension.


    She knew that other than her family background, she was not outstanding in any way. What if Si Fan despised her in the future?


    The results of the checkup had been obtained yesterday, but she had been debating whether or not to tell Si Fan that she was not pregnant. As long as she did not tell Si Fan, then the next time they made love, as long as she did not take any pills, there was a high chance that she would get pregnant. With that, her pregnancy would be true.


    Last night, she had thought about it for a long time. In the end, she decided to tell Si Fan the truth because she did not want to drag Si Fan down. It was already difficult enough for Si Fan now.


    ¡°Sigh, why does Sister always have a bone to pick with Fan? This will make things difficult for me,¡± Yin MO complained softly.


    Yin MO took a car to the Blue Fox Company. At this moment, Si Fan was having an emergency meeting..

 Chapter 213 - Chapter 213: So Ruthless

    Chapter 213: So Ruthless

    As soon as they received the news, Xintao increased their discounts again. It was like they were selling everything. Even high-end brands that never gave discounts participated in the event. Although there was no discount, they would offer expensive free gifts.


    Si Fan did not expect Yin Xun to be so ruthless. All she was doing was throwing m money.


    In order to get investments, he had gone to the Fang Corporation several times. He could enter, and the staff of the Fang Corporation treated him well, but Fang Yao refused to see him personally.


    He had used various methods to pique his fancy or to promise various requests, but none of them had worked.


    Fang Yao¡¯s attitude was very clear. This meant that he did not want to invest in him. The collaboration with Fang Yao could only be nullified. Moreover, Liu Ying and Xing Cheng both rejected his request. Now, it seemed that he had to think of another way.


    None of the higher-ups present could come up with a useful solution. Now, they could only count on Si Fan to think of a solution by himself. Since the negotiations were fruitless, Si Fan left the meeting room filled with anger.


    ¡°Director Si! ¡±


    As soon as she returned to the office, Cheng She rushed over in a panic.


    Si Fan was startled. He turned around and glared at him fiercely.


    Cheng She knew that he was too rash. He actually barged in without knocking. At this moment, Si Fan was staring daggers at him. He was so frightened that he forgot what he wanted to say.


    ¡°I, l, that¡­¡±


    Seeing Cheng She like this, Si Fan was even more furious. He suddenly felt that there was no one capable in this company. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He asked angrily, ¡°What exactly were you trying to say? What happened?¡±


    Cheng She quickly adjusted himself and said, ¡°Xintao has made a move again. Not only have they increased the discounts, but they¡¯re also starting to give discounts to Zhenku phones. Moreover, it¡¯s not just the Zhenku phones. According to reliable sources, Xiaoguo¡¯s latest flagship phone is also about to go on the market. It¡¯s also in a collaboration with Xintao. Zhang Yi said that the discounts this time will never appear again. There¡¯s only one chance. The double discounts on the shopping website and the phones have attracted a large number of users!¡¯


    Now, Blue Fox¡¯s discounts were like a drop in the ocean compared to Xintao¡¯s. Who would not want to take advantage of the situation? Therefore, there was a serious loss of users on their side. Xintao¡¯s recent registration and sales had almost increased in a vertical line.


    ¡°President Si, what should we do next?¡± Cheng She asked anxiously.


    ¡°How would I know? I¡¯m thinking of a solution right now!¡± Si Fan said irritably.


    Cheng She looked at Si Fan. He had an idea that he had wanted to tell Si Fan a long time ago, but he was just an assistant. He just had to do his part and leave the company¡¯s matters to the management. However, it seemed that if he did not say it now, his life in the future would be very difficult.


    Si Fan was not very kind to his employees. He would fire them if they did not do as he wished.


    ¡°President Si, I have an idea, but I¡¯m not sure if I should say it¡­¡± Cheng She said weakly.


    ¡°Speak,¡± Si Fan said coldly and patiently.


    Cheng She coughed, then mustered his courage and said, ¡°Actually, I don¡¯t think Blue Fox needs to go against Xintao because we¡¯ve already established ourselves on the computer side. Now that we¡¯ve switched to the mobile side, we¡¯re just developing a second market. Currently, there are only Blue Fox and Xintao on the mobile side. The market is so big that it can accommodate two companies at the same time.¡±


    If they continued to fight, it was very likely that both sides would suffer losses. In the end, only the users would benefit. However, he did not dare to say this because Si Fan¡¯s expression was even gloomier than before.


    In the past, he had asked a similar question. At that time, he felt that Xintao, a newly established company, would only be able to shine for a while and would not be able to go against Blue Fox in the long run. Now, it seemed that Xintao had a very powerful financial backing, which was why it could burn money to such an extent. Blue Fox¡¯s current situation was very clear. Without investors, it was impossible to fight against Xintao.


    ¡°Hmph, Yin Xun is clearly targeting me. If I admit defeat now, I will only be suppressed by her more in the future. I don¡¯t believe that a woman like her can have much strength. Let¡¯s see who will have the last laugh,¡± Si Fan said with a dark expression.


    ¡°If the promotional event continues to drag on, we will only lose more users. How about this? We¡¯ll start on the PC side first. As for the mobile side, we¡¯ll start after our website is done. As for the discount on the event, we¡¯ll increase that too. Hurry up and discuss with the marketing department how to use the smallest amount of funds to make a promotion that looks tempting..¡±

    Using the smallest amount of money to create a tempting promotion? Cheng She immediately understood what Si Fan meant.


    ¡°But ifwe do this and there are users to compare, then we¡­¡±


    ¡°Am I the CEO or are you the CEO? Do whatever I tell you to do!¡±


    Cheng She wanted to remind him of the consequences of his plan, but he was cut across by Si Fan. Cheng She was so frightened that his entire body trembled. He quickly agreed and left the office.


    As soon as Cheng She left, Si Fan turned around and pushed everything on the table to the ground.


    ¡°Yin Xun, you still deny that you¡¯re targeting me. Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll continue playing with you. I don¡¯t believe that a woman who has just returned to the country¡¯ can cause any waves!¡±


    Si Fan was smashing something on the ground when Yin MO pushed the door open and entered. This time, she reacted more quickly. When she saw something flying toward her, she screamed and immediately squatted down to duck.


    Si Fan heard the voice and turned around. It was Yin Mo. Just as he was about to scold her, he suddenly remembered that he still needed her help. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said gently, ¡°Mo¡¯er, why are you here?¡±


    At the same time, he walked over and helped Yin MO up.


    Yin MO said aggrievedly, ¡°Fan, my results are out. I¡¯m not pregnant.


    When he heard that Yin MO was not pregnant, Si Fan¡¯s expression finally became a little lighter. This was the only good news recently.


    Looking at Yin Mo¡¯s sad expression, Si Fan comforted her. ¡°Mo¡¯er, it¡¯s a good thing that you¡¯re not pregnant now. Look at my current situation. I can¡¯t even protect myself. How can I take care of our child?¡¯


    Si Fan pretended to be sad.


    When Yin Mo heard this, she immediately asked anxiously, ¡°Fan, what happened to you this time?¡±


    Seeing Yin Mo¡¯s concern for him, Si Fan suddenly had an idea. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he bent down to whisper into Yin Mo¡¯s ear.


    After they were done speaking, Yin MO left Blue Fox while Si Fan drove to the hospital. He had something he needed Si Xia¡¯s help with.


    When he arrived, he first told Si Xia that Yin MO was not pregnant. When he saw that Si Xia¡¯s mood had finally improved, he told her the reason he was there.


    ¡°Xiaxia, if Yin MO wasn¡¯t still useful to me, I wouldn¡¯t have endured being with her for so long. I know that it¡¯s been hard on you,¡± Si Fan said gently as he touched Si Xia¡¯s face.


    ¡°Brother¡­¡± Si Xia was very touched by Si Fan¡¯s words. Her heart ached as she asked, ¡°Brother, is there anything I can help you with? I don¡¯t want to see you suffer so much alone.¡±


    Si Fan sighed and said, ¡°Yin Xun has been opposing me. Now, she¡¯s using her company to suppress Blue Fox. I¡¯m in dire need of funds. I don¡¯t know where to get them.¡¯


    Si Xia instantly understood Si Fan¡¯s thoughts and quickly comforted him. ¡°Brother, don¡¯t worry. You¡¯ve always been the one taking care of me and protecting me. Now that you¡¯ve encountered a problem, it¡¯s time for me to help you for once.¡±


    ¡°Xiaxia¡­¡± Si Fan looked at Si Xia with a gentler expression.


    ¡°By the way, Brother, didn¡¯t my parents leave me a sum of money before they passed away? In any case, you¡¯ll take care of me forever. What¡¯s mine is yours. Bring me back to the Si family and I¡¯ll give you that sum of money,¡± Si Xia looked at Si Fan and said very seriously.


    Si Fan smiled and quickly comforted her. ¡°That¡¯s something Mom and Dad left for you. How can I take it? Besides, I¡¯m your brother. I should be the one taking care of you. How can I let you give me something? Xiaxia, I appreciate your kindness, but I can¡¯t do that. ¡®


    ¡°Brother, ifyou don¡¯t take it, what if you still lack funds?¡± Si Xia asked.


    Si Fan lowered his eyes slightly and sighed. ¡°1 can only continue to ask Yin MO for help. Xiaxia, don¡¯t worry. At most, I¡¯ll marry Yin MO in the future. That way, I won¡¯t be short of funds anymore.¡±


    When Si Xia heard that Si Fan was going to marry Yin MO, she instantly panicked. She sat up from the hospital bed and quickly stopped him. ¡°No! Brother, you clearly said that you would always be good to me. How could you marry that b*tch Yin MO! Don¡¯t worry, leave the funding to me. I¡¯ll help you get through this crisis!¡¯


    ¡°Xiaxia¡­¡± Si Fan was so touched that he pulled Si Xia into his arms and gently stroked the top of her head. ¡®My Xiaxia is indeed the best.¡±


    Si Fan did not notice that Si Xia, who was in his arms, had a gloomy look in her eyes.


    At Xintao Company, other than being busy with Xintao, Yin Xun also had to think about the short video business. After a busy day, it was finally time to get off work.


    After stretching her back, Yin Xun gave Mary and Mi Jin a few more instructions before she left the company and drove toward the Yin family villa.


    On her way back, she passed by a shop. Yin Xun had originally driven past it, but after some thought, she turned around and returned. Yin Xun stared at the shop for a long time before walking in to buy something..

    When she returned, Wu Li was indeed the only one at home.


    She took out the things she had just bought from the car. When Wu Li heard the noise, she came out. When she saw Yin Xun carrying a huge box in her arms, she quickly fetched the servant to help carry it.


    ¡®What¡¯s this?¡± Wu Li pointed at the box and asked Yin Xun. The servant had placed the box in the living room.


    ¡°Mom, don¡¯t you feel lonely when we¡¯re not at home? This is a gift for you. You¡¯ll understand when you open it,¡± Yin Xun said with a faint smile.


    ¡°A gift?¡± Wu Li opened the box in confusion. When she saw what was inside, her expression instantly froze, and the corners of her mouth twitched. She pointed at the box¡¯s contents and asked Yin Xun, ¡°Is this your gift for me?¡±


    Inside the box was a retro stereo with a display screen. There was also a large yoga mat and a lot of sports gear.


    ¡®What is this?¡± Wu Li picked up the items inside. She had no idea what it was.


    Yin Xun took the things from Wu Li¡¯s hands and began explaining them to her. ¡°Aren¡¯t you always bored at home alone? This is a plaza dance artifact. As long as you have this, you don¡¯t have to leave the house to entertain yourself. You can dance at home. We live in a villa area and our house is far away from the neighbors. You don¡¯t have to worry about disturbing people. It¡¯s also healthy to do square dancing every day.¡±


    Yin Xun excitedly introduced everything to Wu Li. Listening to her explanation, Wu Li¡¯s expression turned from blank to shocked to a little confused.


    Square dancing? She was a noble lady. Her usual activities were shopping, drinking afternoon tea, or attending noble ladies¡¯ gatherings. The gifts she usually received were jewelry, branded bags, and so on. She did not expect that she would actually receive square dancing equipment in her lifetime!


    She had never even seen something like this before. She had only seen others dance on television.


    What puzzled her most was that square dancing was known to be an activity for the elderly. Why did her daughter know so much about it?!


    ¡°Mom, I don¡¯t think you get to move around much. This won¡¯t do. Health lies in exercise. Even if you have the money to care for yourself, it¡¯s not good enough. It¡¯s best to exercise. Moreover, you won¡¯t feel bored if you jump around for a while. This monitor has an Internet function. You can recommend this to your good friends. This way, you don¡¯t even have to leave the house in the future.


    You can directly connect to the Internet and work out at home. You can even chat with your friends. ¡®


    Although Yin Xun¡¯s gift was a little¡­ weird, it was very practical.


    ¡°You haven¡¯t been sleeping well too. If you move around like this, I can guarantee that you¡¯ll sleep better in the future.¡± Yin Xun was confident in this because she had been trained by Fang Yao recently. Lately, she slept quite well and could fall asleep immediately after lying down. She barely even had dreams.


    Wu Li¡¯s gaze on Yin Xun became gentle. As expected of her precious daughter. She was so concerned about her. Wu Li was really touched.


    Seeing Yin Xun being so sensible, she could not help but think of Yin Mo.


    Although Yin MO was gentle and kind, she had never cared about her mother.


    Yin MO only had Si Fan in her heart. Thinking of this, Wu Li could not help but sigh.


    This gift represented her daughter¡¯s kind intentions. She could not let her down. In fact, it was not impossible to just give it a try.


    Wu Li smiled and nodded. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll try it tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°Mom, this equipment is used for dancing. It¡¯s called dance equipment. But since a lot of elderly people use this thing, it¡¯s also known as square dance equipment. The name isn¡¯t important. Try and see if it¡¯s useful.¡± Yin Xun held Wu Li¡¯s arm and said with a smile, ¡°l bought the size for two. You can dance with Dad. Dad isn¡¯t in great shape either. Although he¡¯s busy, he still has to exercise.¡±


    At the thought that she could drag Yin Cheng down with her, Wu Li was suddenly tempted. The more she looked at this thing, the more pleasing it was to her eyes. She even imagined how Yin Cheng would dance with this thing. She could not help but laugh.


    ¡°It¡¯s indeed a nice thing¡­¡± Wu Li said approvingly.


    After being praised by Wu Li, Yin Xun immediately said proudly, ¡°Of course. I¡¯ve always given gifts that are the most suitable. So far, no one has said that they¡¯re not satisfied.¡±


    Wu Li wanted to warn her not to give such a thing to others, but she was afraid of hurting Yin Xun¡¯s feelings. After thinking about it, she did not say anything.


    Yin Xun always had her own opinions, so she gave gifts to her family without thinking much. She should definitely not give others such a special¡­ practical gift. It would be a very high-end and generous gift.


    At this moment, Wu Li was the only one at home. Yin Xun chatted with her for a while. Finally, when it was dark, Yin Cheng returned.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s face was dark, and he looked like he was in a bad mood..

    ¡°Dad, you¡¯re back,¡± Yin Xun greeted Yin Cheng.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s voice, Yin Cheng finally noticed his daughter. He quickly smiled and said, ¡®Oh, Xun, you¡¯re home today. Aren¡¯t you busy at the company?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s alright. Dad, what¡¯s wrong? Why do you look so pale?¡¯ Yin Xun asked with concern.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun with a troubled expression. After a while, he sighed and said,


    ¡°Hey, you¡¯re back. Xun said she was looking for you. You two can talk, in that case. I¡¯ll cook tonight.¡± Just as Yin Cheng opened his mouth, Wu Li came out of the house and interrupted his words.


    ¡°Alright, alright. Thank you for your hard work tonight¡­¡± Yin Cheng was surprised by Wu Li¡¯s words. The corners of his mouth twitched.


    He looked very flustered. Yin Xun narrowed her eyes. There was something wrong with Yin Cheng¡¯s behavior.


    However, Yin Cheng was trying ms best to hide his panic, so Wu Li did not notice his abnormality. After saying that, she headed straight for the kitchen.


    After Wu Li disappeared from sight, Yin Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.


    He looked up and realized that Yin Xun was staring at him thoughtfully.


    ¡®W -what¡¯s wrong? Xun, why are you staring at Daddy like that?¡± Yin Cheng was so flustered that he stuttered as he spoke.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes narrowed. She leaned closer to Yin Cheng and took a sniff. Then, she crossed her arms and supported her chin with one hand. She looked at Yin Cheng and said, ¡°Dad, something¡¯s wrong with you.¡±


    ¡®What¡¯s wrong with me? I¡¯m perfectly normal. By the way, Xun, why are you looking for me?¡± Yin Cheng did not seem to want to talk about it and quickly changed the topic.


    ¡°I have a collaboration plan to discuss with you.¡± Yin Xun saw that Yin Cheng did not want to talk about it, so she did not ask further. She considerately continued Yin Cheng¡¯s topic of conversation.


    ¡°Collaboration? Are you short of money again? If you need money, just tell me. You can use the company¡¯s funds as you like. They belong to you. Besides, you¡¯re a sensible girl. I don¡¯t have to worry about you,¡± Yin Cheng frowned and added indifferently.


    ¡°Indeed, there¡¯s an investment that requires your help, but let¡¯s put that aside for now. There¡¯s another very important matter. I want to work with you to build a separate office building for Xintao.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she took out a contract and proposal from her bag and handed it to Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng frowned. ¡°Isn¡¯t your company just starting out? We still don¡¯t know what your future will be like. Why do you want to build a building right now? It¡¯s not that I want to hurt your feelings, nor is it that I don¡¯t trust you. But do you know what kind of companies have independent office buildings?¡±


    ¡°I do. Those are only for companies that have achieved certain results in a certain industry,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. This is a business cooperation. I¡¯ll pay you. We¡¯ll sign the contract normally, so you don¡¯t have to worry about losing money.¡±


    Yin Cheng was rather unhappy with Yin Xun¡¯s words. He rolled his eyes at Yin Xun. ¡®What do you mean by that? You¡¯re my daughter. In the future, our Yin family¡¯s company will be yours. Whether we make a profit or a loss, it will affect your future wealth regardless. I¡¯m just worried about you. You¡¯ve just started your business. You have to take it one step at a time. Don¡¯t think about reaching the heavens in a single step.¡±


    ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m not the kind of person who throws caution to the wind in the heat of the moment. There are many things to prepare for in the early stages of making a building. If you agree, we¡¯ll sign the contract first, then we¡¯ll go through the procedures and choose the location.¡±


    ¡°In addition, I¡¯m not just working on Xintao. I¡¯m also planning to build a short video website. When the time comes, the two platforms can complement each other. Once we make it to a larger scale, I still have to work on other things.


    When it comes to things related to the Internet, I want to work on a full set,¡± Yin Xun explained to Yin Cheng.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Cheng was so shocked that he almost dropped his cup.


    He knew that Yin Xun was an opinionated and capable person, but he did not expect her to be this ambitious.


    Is it really possible to cover the entire Internet?


    He was in the construction industry. He was already considered a leading figure in that industry, but not all business owners could manage this. Everyone had their own strengths and weaknesses. Regarding this, he was a little worried. If Yin Xun failed in the future and caused a huge backlash, even if he sold all the Yin family¡¯s assets, he might not be able to afford the compensation.


    He did not care if he would suffer. He was just afraid that his two daughters would suffer.


    Although Yin Xun had been trying to reassure him, Yin Cheng was still a little conflicted..

 Chapter 217 - Chapter 217: Worried Old Father

    Chapter 217: Worried Old Father


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun could tell that Yin Cheng was worried, so he continued to persuade him. ¡°Dad, you don¡¯t have to worry about the funds. Don¡¯t forget that I have the biggest investor. Xintao and Zhenku¡¯s collaboration has been very effective. All my partners are satisfied. This matter was also approved by them. I¡¯m not the only one taking the risk.¡±


    ¡°To think Fang Yao trusts you so much.¡± A trace of surprise appeared in Yin Cheng¡¯s eyes. Although Yin Xun¡¯s project was doing well now, something like this could not only depend on the results of a few days. It had to be examined for a period of time.


    How many websites have attracted a large number of users when they started, then quickly went downhill due to poor operations and finally went bankrupt?


    Yin Xun was his daughter, so it was normal for him to fully support her. However, why would an outsider like Fang Yao put in so much effort? There was something wrong. There must be something wrong.


    Recalling Fang Yao¡¯s attitude toward Yin Xun that day, Yin Cheng became more and more certain that the boy had other intentions for his daughter.


    He had some understanding of Fang Yao¡¯s character. He was not bad; at least he was much better than Si Fan.


    If Fang Yao really was pursuing Yin Xun, then he could consider it. After all, his first impression of Fang Yao was really good¡ªhe had even helped him avoid a huge disaster.


    ¡®Xun, since Fang Yao treats you so well, what do you think of him?¡± Yin Cheng tried bringing this up again.


    Yin Xun did not understand what Yin Cheng meant. She only thought that he was asking about how he was as an investor. Without thinking, she said, ¡°He¡¯s really a good partner. He¡¯s considerate in every aspect.¡±


    She thought about how he had been training her recently. Fang Yao had even considered her personal safety. She would definitely repay him in the future.


    ¡°That¡¯s all?¡± Yin Cheng looked at her with a complicated expression.


    ¡°He¡¯s rich and smart. It¡¯s very comfortable to work with him. I definitely won¡¯t make things hard for him in the future,¡± Yin Xun added.


    ¡°Sigh¡­¡± Yin Cheng sighed. His daughter was good in every way, but she was too clueless about matters of the heart.


    Even he, as her father, had discovered Fang Yao¡¯s feelings for her, but the person involved had no idea at all.


    However, on the other hand, it might be a good thing for Yin Xun to be slow when it came to relationships. That way, he would not have to worry about his precious daughter being kidnapped.


    With this thought in mind, Yin Cheng immediately felt comfortable.


    Yin Xun was very confused by the change in Yin Cheng¡¯s behavior. She thought that Yin Cheng must be worried that Fang Yao would not invest in her in the future.


    ¡°Since you¡¯re so confident, I have no choice but to support you. I agree to this request. After I take a look at your proposal, I¡¯ll plan where to build the office and how to construct it. However, you just said that you needed investments. Don¡¯t you have an investor like Fang Yao? Could it be that you still don¡¯t have enough money?¡±


    ¡°No, I only plan to get Fang Yao to invest in the construction of Xintao and its related buildings. As for the short video site, I want to get another investor. After all, we can¡¯t put all our eggs in the same basket. It¡¯s safer to split them up,¡± Yin Xun replied.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun in surprise. She was even more calculative than he From the looks of it, there was really no need for him to worry about Yin Xun¡¯s future development. She really had her own ideas.


    Yin Cheng smiled and said, ¡°So, are you planning to get me to invest in the short video website?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°You could say that. I haven¡¯t found a suitable investor yet. If I still can¡¯t find one after the project starts, I can only turn to you. But don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t make you work for free. We¡¯ll do everything professionally.¡±


    ¡°So in your eyes, Dad is a person who only cares about his own profits. Why are you so particular about investing when you¡¯re my daughter¡­¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s voice was a little bitter.


    ¡°Don¡¯t work yourself too hard. If you need my help, just let me know. After things have stabilized, I¡¯ll introduce you to some connections. Anyway, I¡¯ll support you behind the scenes. Don¡¯t worry and move forward boldly.¡±


    Although Yin Xun treating him as an outsider made Yi Cheng uncomfortable, he still reassured Yin Xun.


    The two of them discussed the construction for a while longer. When everything was settled, Yin Xun felt relieved. Yin Cheng was backing her now. Unless it was absolutely critical, she would not ask Yin Cheng for help.


    As she relaxed, Yin Xun thought of Yin Cheng¡¯s panicked look in front of Wu Li just now. She was still curious, so she asked again, ¡°Dad, did something happen before you came back? Why are you so flustered? It¡¯s not like you at all..¡±

 Chapter 218 - Chapter 218: Frightened Yin Cheng

    Chapter 218: Frightened Yin Cheng


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Cheng trembled and waved his hand. ¡°Children shouldn¡¯t ask about adults¡¯ business.¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    She had just finished discussing a collaboration with her father, but she was still being treated like a child.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes and sniffed at Yin Cheng again. She crossed her arms and asked, ¡°You smell faintly of alcohol and perfume. Dad, you don¡¯t usually wear perfume. This perfume isn¡¯t the one my mother uses. Is there a problem with you..


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes gradually narrowed as she looked at Yin Cheng with a threatening gaze.


    ¡°Are you two done talking? The food is ready. It¡¯s all your favorites. Come over for dinner!¡± Yin Cheng was interrupted by Wu Li again.


    He and Yin Xun looked at the door at the same time. The next moment, Wu Li pushed the door open and walked in, calling the two of them to eat.


    The moment he saw Wu Li, Yin Cheng¡¯s expression instantly stiffened. He grinned and said, ¡°Alright, alright. We¡¯ll be right there.


    ¡°Hurry up, it won¡¯t taste good if it gets cold,¡± Wu Li said and left.


    Seeing Wu Li walk away, Yin Cheng said to Yin Xun, ¡°I¡¯ll tell you about this later. Don¡¯t spout nonsense in front of your mother. If you provoke your mother, I won¡¯t care about you anymore.¡±


    After threatening Yin Xun, Yin Cheng left.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng¡¯s back and made a face. Even without Yin Cheng¡¯s explanation, she could tell that Yin Cheng had encountered something. She hoped that Yin Cheng would not do anything wrong. If Yin Cheng hurt Wu Li, she would not let it go.


    Wu Li had indeed prepared a table full of dishes. Seeing that Yin Xun was coming over, she quickly stopped her from sitting down. ¡°Xun, go wash your hands first before eating.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Yin Xun agreed. When Wu Li was not paying attention, however, she took a piece of fried prawn and put it in her mouth.


    ¡°Gluttonous cat. No matter how hungry you are, you have to wash your hands before eating. It¡¯s not hygienic if you don¡¯t.¡± Wu Li did not expect Yin Xun to have such a childish side. She did not know whether to laugh or not. She gently pushed Yin Xun out of the dining room and make her wash her hands.


    When everyone was ready to sit down and eat, Wu Li looked at Yin Cheng, who was eating without any care for manners, and said, ¡°Hubby, I think there¡¯s something wrong with you recently¡­ ¡®


    Clatter. Yin Cheng¡¯s hand that was holding the chopsticks trembled, and the chopsticks fell to the ground.


    YinXun, ¡±


    Wu Li looked at Yin Cheng and sighed helplessly. ¡°You¡¯re an adult. Why are you still so careless when you ¡®re eating?¡±


    She asked the servant to bring another pair of chopsticks for Yin Cheng and added, ¡°Other than work, you only sleep every day. This will cause problems for your body. It just so happens that Xun brought us something nice this time. We can dance while connected to the Internet. We should dance together at home someday. It will also help train our bodies.¡±


    ¡°Oh, I see.¡± Yin Cheng heaved a long sigh of relief. ¡°Alright, alright. If you¡¯d like it, as long as I¡¯m at home, I can dance with you any time. It¡¯s good to exercise and be healthy.¡±


    Yin Xun was drinking water and almost spat it out when he heard Yin Cheng¡¯s reply.


    She quickly swallowed and held back her cough as she looked at Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng also noticed Yin Xun¡¯s actions and gave her a meaningful look.


    ¡®What¡¯s wrong? Why does it feel like something¡¯s off since you came back?¡± Wu Li finally noticed Yin Cheng¡¯s strange behavior and asked with a frown.


    Yin Cheng quickly picked up a few pieces of Wu Li¡¯s favorite dishes and placed them in her bowl. He said, ¡°Yin Xun, this girl, makes a fuss every day. Who knows what¡¯s wrong with her? Don¡¯t worry about her. Let¡¯s eat. After dinner, I¡¯ll dance with you. Speaking of which, can my old arms and legs even handle that?¡±


    The hint of doubt that had just arisen in Wu Li¡¯s mind was immediately interrupted by Yin Cheng. She began to talk to Yin Cheng about how to dance and how long she had to dance every day to ensure that she had enough exercise.


    This was a gift from her daughter. She had to make use of it.


    Yin Xun looked at the intimate interaction between Yin Cheng and Wu Li. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. She decided to ask Yin Cheng in private if there was anything. Wu Li did not need to know anything. It was good to maintain her carefree mood. Anyway, with her around, Wu Li would be in charge of the household¡¯s happiness.


    After dinner, it was already very late. Yin Xun said a few short words to Wu Li and the others before leaving the Yin family villa.


    Halfway through the journey back, she received a call from Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Dad, are you going to tell me?¡± Yin Xun stopped the car by the roadside and picked up the call..

 Chapter 219 - Chapter 219: Helping Yin Xun Apply Medicine

    Chapter 219: Helping Yin Xun Apply Medicine


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Cheng said angrily, ¡°You brat, are you messing with your father? I didn¡¯t do anything wrong, so why are you asking me to come clean? I just noticed that you were overthinking, so I wanted to tell you not to concern your mother about this in the future. It would get even more troublesome then.¡±


    ¡°Oh, then go ahead.¡± Yin Xun said lightly.


    Yin Cheng sighed. ¡°Recently, other than being careful of Si Fan, you have to be careful of the Zhou family too. They have some conflicts with our Yin family, and they¡¯re in the media sector. It would be bad if they did something to you¡­¡±


    ¡°The Zhou family?¡¯ Yin Xun frowned and said, ¡®Our two families don¡¯t have any business dealings, and there¡¯s no overlap in our business. Why would there be a conflict?¡¯


    ¡°This¡­ Alright, Wife, I¡¯m coming! Anyway, just be careful and stay as far away from them as possible.¡± Wu Li¡¯s voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone. Yin Cheng hurriedly instructed Yin Xun before hanging up.


    Yin Xun was confused. From Yin Cheng¡¯s tone, this matter seemed to be very serious.


    Yin Xun looked at her phone, which had already been turned off. She did not hesitate anymore and immediately started the car and drove in the direction of the villa.


    When she passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, Yin Xun looked into the courtyard. The house was brightly lit, but Fang Yao was not outside.


    Although she had already promised Fang Yao that she would practice every day, it was already so late. It did not seem appropriate to disturb him.


    Yin Xun did not stop the car and drove straight to her house.


    When she passed the underground garage, she saw Fang Yao standing at the door.


    ¡°You¡¯re back,¡± Fang Yao greeted her.


    ¡°Yes, because I went home today, I came back a little late. It¡¯s already such a late hour, so let¡¯s cancel today¡¯s practice for a day. You should rest too.¡± Yin Xun tried to negotiate for a day off.


    However, Fang Yao did not do as she wished. He said, ¡°No, we have to persevere every day. If you do it intermittently, it will only have the opposite effect.¡±


    ¡°Si Fan didn¡¯t come looking for me today,¡± Fang Yao told her while he taught Yin Xun defensive techniques.


    Yin Xun gritted her teeth in pain. After a long while, she took a deep breath and said, ¡°He probably gave up because you kept turning him down. What a pity.


    You probably seem like a money tree to him.¡±


    ¡°How can I be his money tree if he never had access to my wealth? He doesn¡¯t look like he¡¯s giving up, though. I heard that he returned to the Si family with his adopted sister, Si Xia. If I¡¯m not wrong, he should still have a trump card in the Si family.¡±


    The Si Family. Yin Xun recalled the description of the Si Family that she read in the novel. The original text had glossed over this, but Yin Xun remembered that Si Xia seemed to be quite rich. It was just that this money was in her saving fund and she was not able to use it before she turned 30.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. He won¡¯t be able to use the Si family. He¡¯s already taken all the money he could get. He has no right to use the rest,¡± Yin Xun said nonchalantly.


    ¡°It seems that you know his movements very well,¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and said faintly.


    In the end, he lost focus for a moment and did not control his arm strength properly, causing Yin Xun to feel even more pain.


    ¡°Hey, hey, hey, Young Master Fang, President Fang, Boss Fang¡­ It hurts, it hurts¡­¡± It was so painful that Yin Xun was about to cry.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I didn¡¯t control my strength.¡± Fang Yao quickly helped Yin Xun up from the ground and brought her to the side to rest.


    Yin Xun let out a long sigh and complained, ¡°Fang Yao, I thought you were already using your full strength. I didn¡¯t expect you to be holding back. I¡¯m suddenly curious about how impressive your combat strength is. In the future, when I complete my training with you, let¡¯s exchange a few moves.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yao smiled.


    There were always accidents in a fight. Seeing that Yin Xun¡¯s body was rather bruised, Fang Yao sighed. He got up and went to the cabinet beside him to get a bottle of medicine. Then, he squatted in front of Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Do you want to apply it yourself or should I help you with it?¡±


    The two of them had been fighting for so long. At this moment, Yin Xun¡¯s entire body was sore and weak. She could not even move, let alone apply medicine. She only wanted to lie there and play dead.


    ¡°If it¡¯s possible, I won¡¯t mind if you apply it for me,¡± Yin Xun said weakly.


    Fang Yao did not say anything else. He poured the medicine on his hand and rubbed it on his palm to warm it up before gently applying it to Yin Xun¡¯s bruised spot.


    ¡°Si Fan is not afraid to do anything. You¡¯ve made him suffer a huge loss in business. Watch out that he won¡¯t find trouble with you in other places in the future,¡± Fang Yao said as he rubbed the medicine on Yin Xun.


    ¡°It¡¯s possible, but don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll be careful,¡± YinXun agreed..

 Chapter 220 - Chapter 220: Being Spied On

    Chapter 220: Being Spied On


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s half-dead appearance, Fang Yao could not bear it. After thinking for a moment, he said, ¡°Actually, I can find a few more bodyguards for you. If you really don¡¯t like this kind of training, we can..


    ¡°No, no, I like it very much!¡± Yin Xun interrupted. ¡°You can only rely on yourself. No matter how many bodyguards you have, there will always be a time when I¡¯m alone. It¡¯s more important to quickly increase my strength. So torture me to your heart¡¯s content. I can take it.¡±


    Why did these words sound so awkward?


    As it was very late, Fang Yao allowed Yin Xun to practice a little less. However, although the training time was reduced, the amount of activity was not reduced at all.


    Yin Xun was especially tired today, and even walking was difficult when they were done. Seeing this, Fang Yao promptly carried her back


    The butler and the servants hid behind the door and watched Fang Yao carry Yin Xun out with looks of anticipation.


    After the two of them walked out of the villa¡¯s courtyard, the butler muttered resentfully, ¡°Young Master, how can you carry her on your back? This is a good opportunity to get closer to her. What good would it be to carry her on your back? Sigh..


    The servants nodded in unison.


    As Fang Yao carried Yin Xun home. Yin Xun said in embarrassment, ¡°I¡¯ve been troubling you recently. It¡¯s already so late, and I still need you to send me home. When I have time, I¡¯ll get you a gift to repay you.¡±


    Fang Yao thought of the strange objects that Yin Xun had given him and immediately rejected the offer. ¡°That¡¯s not necessary. You¡¯re helping me earn money. Taking care of you is tantamount to protecting my money.¡±


    Yin Xun was speechless. Although this was the truth, why did it sound so harsh? Could Fang Yao not be more tactful?


    Fang Yao only sent Yin Xun to the door of the courtyard before heading back. Yin Xun stood at the door and stretched her body. Just as she was about to return to the house, she saw a figure from the corner of her eye.


    She turned her head sharply. The figure saw that she had noticed and turned to Because the person was too far away and the figure was standing under the shadow of the street lamp, Yin Xun could not see what the person looked like. However, the figure looked a little familiar.


    She instantly became vigilant. Yin Xun stared at the place where the person disappeared for a long time. Seeing that there was no more movement, she turned around and entered the house.


    ¡°President Yin, why are you standing at the door and not coming in? Is there something wrong?¡¯ Yin Xun¡¯s bodyguard came out of the house and asked Yin Xun curiously.


    ¡°I feel like someone is watching me,¡± Yin Xun said to the bodyguard in a low voice.


    Yin Xun had been keeping the two bodyguards that Fang Yao had found for her by her side. For convenience¡¯s sake, she simply let them stay in her house.


    In any case, the villa was huge and there were many rooms. Everyone was a woman here, so there was nothing inconvenient about it.


    The long-haired female bodyguard who came out to talk to Yin Xun was called Shu Yi. She saw Yin Xun standing at the door for a long time and did not come in. She was a little worried, so she walked out. As for the other short-haired bodyguard, her name was Tan Ai.


    Tan Ai and Shu Yi were on duty every morning and night to help Yin Xun look after the house. Tan Ai was sleeping now, so only Shu Yi came out.


    Hearing Yin Xun mention that someone was spying on her, Shu Yi¡¯s expression instantly turned cold. She said in a low voice, ¡°President Yin, go back to your room first. I will go out and take a look. We will talk about it later.¡±


    ¡°Alright, be careful.¡± Yin Xun dragged her exhausted body into the house.


    Not long after, Shu Yi returned.


    ¡°President Yin, there is no one outside. The person probably saw that you noticed them and went back. You have to go to work tomorrow, so get Tan Ai to go with you,¡± Shu Yi suggested.


    Yin Xun nodded in agreement. She had a feeling that she had seen that figure somewhere before, but she could not remember where. Since she could not remember, she chose not to think about it anymore. She was far too tired, so she planned to take a bath and rest. If there was anything important, she would talk about it tomorrow.


    For the next two days, Yin Xun had been paying attention to her surroundings. The first thing she did every day when she arrived home was to look at the surveillance cameras, but she did not find any suspicious people.


    However, Yin Xun was sure that there was something wrong with the figure she saw that night. Because she was afraid that something would happen, Yin Xun had been bringing her bodyguards out with her for the past two days. Nothing happened.


    In addition, Si Fan had been exceptionally quiet for the past two days. There was no movement from Blue Fox at all. Yin Xun could feel that it was just the calm before the storm. Si Fan must be holding back some big move.


    Underestimating the enemy was courting death. Yin Xun knew this well, so she still paid close attention to Si Fan.


    As expected, Yin Xun was right. On the morning of the third day, she had just arrived at the company when Mi Jin came to look for her with Blue Fox¡¯s information.


    ¡°President Yin, Blue Fox has changed their strategy!¡± Mi Jin rushed into Yin Xun¡¯s office anxiously. He did not even knock on the door. He looked very anxious..

 Chapter 221 - Chapter 221: Si Fan Makes A Move

    Chapter 221: Si Fan Makes A Move


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡®What is it?¡± Yin Xun was a little surprised to see Mi Jin reacting like this. Mi Jin was usually not a rash person. If he was in such a hurry, something big must have happened.


    Mi Jin handed the information to Yin Xun and said, ¡°Initially, Blue Fox was only announcing the promotion event. However, they seem to have become anxious after seeing how well our performance was. Now, before the mobile phone software is released, the computer department has already started to offer discounts. Because there are still many users using computers now, and our website is only with Zhenku at the moment, most people are still relying on computers to buy things. Blue Fox has just started this not long ago, and the number of new users registering with our website has already decreased drastically.¡±


    ¡°Oh, that¡¯s right. P-brand is about to launch a new phone product. Due to the stability and smoothness of P -brand phones, they have always been popular in our country. This has caused the purchase of Zhenku phones to fall. Thinking about it, P-brand phones are several levels better than domestic phones in terms of design and usability. Although it¡¯s expensive, the price is still within the tolerance range of most people.¡±


    ¡°Zhang Yi also called just now to ask how you want to deal with this matter.¡¯


    Listening to Mi Jin¡¯s report, Yin Xun quickly thought about Xintao and Zhenku¡¯s current situation.


    She did not expect Si Fan to move so quickly. Before the phone app was even out, he had already started moving on the computer. However¡­


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡®The reason we hold an event when mobile apps are released is to attract users to buy mobile phones and use the apps on them. Now that they are directly starting their activities on the computer, what will happen when their mobile apps are released in the future? At that time, they will no longer be attractive to users.¡±


    ¡°There should be more to this event, right? Are there other activities planned for the future?¡¯


    Mi Jin nodded. ¡°President Yin, you have thought things through. Blue Fox indeed has their next move. After the mobile phone app is released, the users can use the purchase records from their computer during the event period to exchange for things on the mobile phone app. As for what can be exchanged, it seems they have not decided yet. ¡®


    Si Fan¡¯s actions made it clear that he was going against Xintao.


    The event was different from the last time they saw it. Although the investment was not big, it was already the maximum Si Fan could bear. However, did Si Fan have an investor now? How could he be brave enough to do this?


    Yin Xun recalled what Fang Yao had said last night. Si Fan and Si Xia had returned to the Si family¡¯s old residence together. Could it be that they had really gotten the funds from the Si family?


    ¡°President Yin, it is obvious that Blue Fox is going against us. What should we do now? If we are purely competing with phone users, things would be simple.


    But now, Blue Fox is competing with both phone and computer customers. That is very disadvantageous to us,¡± Mi Jin asked anxiously.


    Although Yin Xun had the support of the Fang family, it was still a little difficult to fight against Blue Fox. After all, Blue Fox had been developed for many years. Even if Blue Fox encountered difficulties now, their foundation was still there. Be it money or connections, the current Xintao could not compare.


    The main concern was if Fang Yao¡¯s investment quota for Yin Xun was limited. Once Yin Xun¡¯s capital chain was cut off, Xintao would be finished.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and asked, ¡°Are all their businesses participating in the event?¡±


    ¡°Not really. There are a few big international names who have rejected this event. There are also some big names who want to reject it, but they don¡¯t dare to be too forceful. After all, if there¡¯s a conflict with Blue Fox, Blue Fox might not recommend them in the future, which would affect their sales,¡± Mi Jin replied.


    Some brands relied on websites to make a name for themselves, so they signed perennial contracts. They would only sell things on one website and were not allowed to use another website. Once they went to another website, it would be considered a breach of contract and they would have to pay huge compensation.


    This was also why some of the brands did not come over despite how good the deal was.


    Hearing this, Yin Xun immediately smiled. ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, it¡¯s easy.


    Those brands are the best place for us to start. As for them starting the event early, don¡¯t worry about this. In the next two days, find a few bloggers with a lot of fans and make a few posts to compare the events. There¡¯s no need to add extra input. Just analyze according to the actual situation.


    ¡°Oh, right. Remember to make a price comparison list and list all the merchants whose prices have changed recently , ¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    ¡°Are you saying that they will increase the price of the goods and then pretend to be having a promotion? Are you saying that the price hasn¡¯t changed and


    Blue Fox didn ¡®t invest any money in it?¡± Mi Jin instantly understood what Yin Xun meant..

 Chapter 222 - Chapter 222: Starting With The Merchants

    Chapter 222: Starting With The Merchants


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°Of course.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly. ¡°Si Fan¡¯s current situation is that he wants to spend money on his company but he doesn¡¯t dare to because he can¡¯t get investors. So, he can only use these writing tactics. Go and get these done first. I have some things to discuss with the merchants.¡±


    Regarding Si Fan¡¯s decision, the merchants definitely knew the inside story. If they deceived the consumers and were discovered in the end, the merchants¡¯ reputations would be destroyed first. If it came to that, it would be very difficult to salvage it in the future.


    Right now, the merchants needed a helper who could help them terminate their contract with Blue Fox. It was very difficult to rely on the law alone. They could try relying on justice and the law together.


    Since Si Fan cared so much about Xintao¡¯s appearance and had been going against her, it would be rude if she did not retaliate.


    After Mi Jin left, Yin Xun called the brands one by one to discuss this matter. As expected, some merchants had also thought of this. They originally wanted to refuse to participate in the event, but Blue Fox repeatedly assured that Blue Fox would return the money to the users in another way. Only then did they agree to the event.


    However, no one expected Blue Fox would also employ a coupon deduction scheme. The coupon would deduct the corresponding amount from the price.


    In the middle of the process, they would deduct a handling fee from the user. Therefore, in the end, Blue Fox did not fork out the money. The money was still borne by the user.


    After Yin Xun communicated with a few brands, they had already started to contact more big brands and negotiate with Blue Fox.


    Yin Xun was very satisfied with the result. She hoped that Si Fan would like the surprise she gave him.


    Yin Xun was thinking of a way to deal with Blue Fox. Meanwhile, Si Fan was also thinking of a way to deal with Xintao.


    He asked Cheng She to find someone to act as a customer and shop on Xintao. Then, they would give a bad review, saying that many of the products participating in the event were defective. They had all been deceived.


    It was normal for products to occasionally have problems. However, Si Fan wanted to publicize it greatly. The blogger who opened the discussion thread gave a logical analysis, causing many people to be led astray. Even if those people had never used Xintao, they would follow suit and criticize it.


    Cheng She, who had just contacted the blogger, slumped in his chair and yawned. He kept complaining in his heart. Blue Fox had been developing for so many years and had always been very stable. Moreover, it already had a solid customer base in the computer market. Now that it had started developing the mobile phone market too, it should be in good shape no matter what happened.


    Even if Xintao appeared now and the two companies would overlap, with such a huge market available, as long as the two companies operated differently , there was no need to worry.


    As long as the quality was passable, the customer service was good, and the after-sales service was in place, there was no need to worry about getting users.


    However, Si Fan seemed to have been possessed by something. His mind was filled with thoughts of suppressing Xintao. Both sides had invested a lot of energy and finance in this aspect. In the end, both sides might suffer.


    Competition between companies was one thing, but the most bitter pill to swallow was that the low-ranking employees, who had no say in the matter, had been working overtime like crazy recently. They were being used by their bosses like horses.


    Si Fan was anxious. The Blue Fox event had been completed by Cheng She and the operations department last night. Cheng She was exhausted. He was looking forward to Si Fan giving him a break.


    However, not long after he relaxed, his phone suddenly rang. Cheng She¡¯s expression immediately darkened. He had a feeling that it was something bad agam.


    Now, what he was most afraid of was hearing his phone ring and Si Fan calling him. Nothing good would come out of it.


    But what was the use of being afraid? She still had to answer the call.


    Cheng She only hesitated for a few seconds before quickly picking up the call. Hearing the other party¡¯s exasperated tone, Cheng She¡¯s expression became ugly, but he still used a humble and fawning tone to deal with the other party¡¯s words.


    After hanging up the phone, Cheng She walked toward Si Fan¡¯s office with a conflicted expression. The office door was not closed, and Si Fan was on the phone inside. He looked very pale.


    Cheng She walked to the door and did not dare to disturb Si Fan. He just stood at the door and waited quietly.


    ¡°Those old fellows are already half-dead. Why do they still care so much? Xiaxia, that¡¯s your money. What right do they have not to let it go?¡± Si Fan¡¯s tone was irritable. Cheng She could tell that he was trying his best to suppress his anger because he had already crumpled the documents on the table.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine if you can¡¯t give it to me. As expected, the Si family has never treated me as one of them. They are in charge of your money; you even said you can¡¯t withdraw it before you¡¯re thirty. Are you on guard against me? Sigh, forget it.


    Although you¡¯re wary of me, you¡¯ll always be my sister.. Since you can¡¯t help me, I¡¯ll think of a way myself¡­¡±

    It seemed that Si Fan¡¯s request had not been met. After hanging up the phone, the anger on his face could not be concealed. He grabbed a cup on the table and threw it on the ground.


    ¡°President Si, don¡¯t¡­¡±


    When Si Fan heard the voice, his sharp gaze shot toward the door. Cheng She was so frightened that he immediately swallowed the rest of his sentence.


    Cheng She thought about his choice of words and said nervously, ¡°President Si, there¡¯s a problem with the Shang family. They¡¯re very dissatisfied with this event and want us to change the format or they will not participate directly.


    President Si, why don¡¯t we invest more money¡­¡±


    Back then, Si Fan had emphasized that they should use the minimum amount of money to do the flashiest event. This was almost impossible, so the operations department could only exploit the merchants and users.


    Si Fan did not know the details. He only knew that the publicity for the event was very strong now and he had spent very little money.


    Now that the Shang family was starting to stir up trouble, Cheng She had to ask for Si Fan¡¯s opinion.


    After listening to Cheng She, Si Fan said unhappily, ¡°Do you still have to ask me about such a small matter? What does your marketing department do?! Tell them that we¡¯ve signed a contract. If they don¡¯t cooperate with us for the event, they can forget about getting recommendations in the future! Also, don¡¯t even think about going to Xintao. They can¡¯t afford the breach of contract fees.


    Remind them who helped them build up their brand in the past! ¡®


    Cheng She was reprimanded by Si Fan again. As for how they should communicate with those merchants, Si Fan did not care at all.


    Cheng She left Si Fan¡¯s office in an extremely bad mood. He sighed and walked toward the bathroom.


    After solving his physiological problems, he was about to exit the cubicle when he heard his colleagues talking about Xintao at the sink outside.


    ¡°Sigh, my friend is working at Xintao. Not only is the working atmosphere good, but they even have overtime pay. Apparently, the boss is also easy to talk to. I¡¯m so jealous. They seem to be recruiting recently. My friend called me over. I¡¯ve been thinking about resigning these few days.¡±


    Another person also said enviously, ¡°That¡¯s great. They¡¯re both bosses, and we¡¯re both working in online companies, but why is the difference in treatment so big? Xintao has just started, but they¡¯re already so good to their employees. It¡¯s a pity that my education level is low. I was lucky to get the chance to be a developer at Blue Fox. I don¡¯t dare to leave.¡±


    ¡°Damn, what can we do? Don¡¯t you feel that Blue Fox¡¯s treatment is getting worse and worse? They simply don¡¯t treat the employees as humans. Especially recently, the management¡¯s been squeezing us like crazy without any compensation. Look at Assistant Cheng. He¡¯s been with CEO Si from the beginning. It¡¯s been so long, but he¡¯s still so mistreated. ¡®


    Cheng She had been listening to the conversation outside the cubicle. He only came out after they left.


    ¡°Is Xintao really recruiting¡­¡± Cheng She recalled what the two of them had said as he walked.


    After Yin Xun was done with business at Xintao, she looked at Mary to check how she was doing.


    The contract signing went smoothly. Mary had already found several people with special characteristics. The next thing was to wait for Mi Jin to produce the short video website before she could start investing.


    After a busy day, it was finally time to get off work. Yin Xun packed up and prepared to go home.


    Before going back, Yin Xun handed the proposal for the short video website to Mi Jin.


    ¡°It¡¯s still the same old rules. A simpler interface and low memory requirement. But there¡¯s no hurry. We can do this slowly. Our focus now is the shopping platform in Xintao.¡± Yin Xun smiled gently.


    Mi Jin,


    He felt more and more like he had boarded a pirate ship.


    After Yin Xun gave her instructions, she left immediately and drove back to the villa in the suburbs. This time, she did not need Fang Yao to rush her. She was more sensible and went over herself.


    ¡°Miss Yin, you got off work quite early today.¡± The butler greeted her with a smile before ushering her inside.


    ¡°Yes, things have been going rather smoothly recently, so there¡¯s no need to work overtime. However, I still feel very tired. I don¡¯t know when I can properly relax.¡± Yin Xun nodded and sighed.


    ¡°You¡¯re now a business partner with our young master, so if there¡¯s anything you need, you can discuss it with him. There are some things he can give you advice on.¡± The butler did not hesitate to create an opportunity for Fang Yao.


    ¡°He¡¯s already helped me enough. It¡¯s inappropriate to trouble him further , ¡± Yin Xun said as she walked into the house.


    The butler smiled. ¡°You¡¯re partners. You¡¯re practically in the same boat.


    Besides, I think our young master is very willing to help you..¡±

 Chapter 224 - Chapter 224: A Gift Of Revenge

    Chapter 224: A Gift Of Revenge


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    The butler had already made it very clear, but he did not know if Yin Xun could think that far. In fact, he had always known how Fang Yao felt. Although he had a good impression of Yin Xun, he did not know how Yin Xun really felt. He could not say such a thing openly. If everything was just Fang Yao¡¯s wishful thinking, then the future cooperation between the two of them would become very awkward.


    Yin Xun walked into the living room and saw Fang Yao walking down the stairs with a bag in his hand.


    ¡°Here you go.¡± Fang Yao walked up to Yin Xun and handed her the bag.


    ¡®What¡¯s this?¡± Yin Xun took the bag in confusion.


    The bag was not big or heavy, but it looked exquisite. It looked like something very expensive.


    The corners of Fang Yao¡¯s lips curled up slightly. He seemed to be in a good mood as he said, ¡°This is a gift for you. You can open it and take a look.¡±


    The butler flashed a gratified smile. The young master was finally enlightened and knew how to woo girls. Very good¡ªgirls liked to accept gifts.


    However, the smile on his face froze when he saw Yin Xun open the bag and take out something.


    Then, the object began to move.


    When Yin Xun saw what was inside, the corners of her mouth could not help but twitch.


    The gift Fang Yao gave her was a palm-sized turtle!


    At this moment, Yin Xun was at a loss. She did not know if she should put the turtle down or take it in her hand. She asked Fang Yao in disbelief, ¡°This¡­ Is this really a gift from you?¡¯


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡®Tortoises are a meaningful existence, and they¡¯re very easy to raise. If it¡¯s raised well, it can even be considered a family heirloom. It¡¯s called Moneymaker. Since your business has just started, I think this gift is very suitable for you.


    ¡®What¡¯s wrong? Don¡¯t you like it?¡± Fang Yao asked disappointedly when Yin Xun did not reply for a long time.


    ¡°No, no, no. How can that be? I¡¯m very pleased¡­ Hehe¡­¡± Yin Xun carefully repacked the turtle. She planned to bring it home later and find a basin to put it As for the food, Fang Yao had already prepared it.


    The butler was standing at the side. His gaze kept moving back and forth between Fang Yao, Yin Xun, and the tortoise. At this moment, he had no doubt that Fang Yao was exacting revenge on Yin Xun for giving him the plant.


    Why were these two people so strange? ¡®Young Master, you won¡¯t be able to get a girlfriend like this.¡¯ The butler could not help but worry about Fang Yao¡¯s future. It seemed that his wish would be very difficult to fulfill.


    After passing the gift, the two of them went to the restaurant for a fitness meal. It was clear soup once again. Although it tasted good, it was getting tiring after having it every day.


    At this moment, Yin Xun really missed junk food like skewers and coke.


    ¡°Liu Ying also moved to this neighborhood. She came to see me the other day just to say hi,¡± Fang Yao suddenly said halfway through the meal.


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. ¡°Liu Ying? Why would she move to this neighborhood?¡±


    The butler,   Miss Yin seemed to be missing the point.


    The butler looked at the two of them. One of them only knew how to give gifts such as plants, massage beds, furniture, and so on. The other was even more ruthless. He actually gave a girl a tortoise. Could they really get together in the end?


    However, from another perspective, the two of them seemed to have the same thought process. Instead, they were compatible in another sense.


    The butler sighed. Although he was anxious, he knew that worrying over this would solve nothing. Forget it¡ªeveryone had their own blessings.


    Yin Xun did not know what the butler was thinking about. At this moment, her mind was filled with the news that Liu Ying had moved to this neighborhood.


    Recalling how Liu Ying had broken the law in order to pursue Si Fan, Yin Xun subconsciously wondered if Liu Ying had moved here to monitor her and Fang Yao so that she could provide Si Fan with information at any time.


    ¡°Surveillance¡­¡± Yin Xun muttered. Suddenly, the figure from that night appeared in her mind. At that time, she felt that it looked familiar. Now, she was quite sure that the figure was Liu Ying.


    As expected, back then, Liu Ying had dealt with Yin MO for Si Fan. Now, she was targeting her for Si Fan.


    ¡®What was that?¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun in confusion. Yin Xun was mumbling to herself. Her voice was so soft that Fang Yao could not hear what she was saying.


    ¡°I realized that someone has been monitoring me recently, but because they were a great distance away, that person reacted quickly to avoid detection. I couldn¡¯t see what they looked like at all. Perhaps that person knew that my house had a surveillance camera, so they only looked at me from afar and didn¡¯t approach. I was originally puzzled, but when I heard you mention Liu Ying just now, I realized that the figure reminded me of her.¡± Yin Xun frowned and suddenly felt a little irritated..

 Chapter 225 - Chapter 225: Releasing Rats

    Chapter 225: Releasing Rats


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Why did these women always like to revolve around Si Fan? He was rich and handsome, but there were so many good men. Could she not just change to another one? Yin Xun really expected better from her now. ¡®Why would she spy on you?¡± Fang Yao was puzzled.


    Yin Xun sighed. ¡°Because of Si Fan.¡±


    ¡°It¡­ doesn¡¯t feel very plausible¡­¡± Fang Yao frowned slightly and wanted to say something but hesitated.


    ¡°Do you need a few more bodyguards? Although we live very close to each other, if something really happens, I¡¯m afraid I might not make it in time.¡± Fang Yao knew why Liu Ying moved here, but that was not important. The most important thing now was whether Yin Xun would be in danger.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No need. I have a way to deal with her. Let¡¯s not alert her first. We¡¯ll pretend we don¡¯t know.¡¯


    The subject of Liu Ying was temporarily over. After that, Yin Xun and Fang Yao exchanged information. Just as she expected, Si Fan had not found an investor yet.


    A few days ago, Si Fan and Si Xia had returned to the Si family¡¯s old residence for the sake of money. Before Si Xia¡¯s parents died, they had left her a huge sum of money as insurance. Si Xia¡¯s health had always been poor, so if anything happened in the future, this would be her life-saving money.


    Unless Si Xia encountered a great crisis, no one would be able to touch this money before Si Xia turned 30. The shareholders of the Si Family would be in charge of it.


    After eating and resting for a while, Yin Xun followed Fang Yao to the gym to train.


    In all fairness, the training had been really useful. Her daily training was basically the same, but her body was gradually getting used to it. After finishing the training today, she was surprisingly not so tired. Not only was she not tired, but she even felt refreshed.


    It seemed that her wish to have a proper fight with Fang Yao would soon come true, Yin Xun thought happily.


    After exercising, Yin Xun left with the tortoise.


    Fang Yao wanted someone to send Yin Xun back, but Yin Xun refused the offer.


    She carried the tortoise and leisurely walked toward her house. As she walked, she admired the stars. She looked as if nothing had happened, but in reality, she had been paying attention to her surroundings.


    Yin Xun was actually a little disappointed that she did not see that familiar figure tonight. She was prepared, but she did not have a chance to show off.


    Yin Xun stood at the door and waited for a while, but there was still no movement, so she gave up.


    Back inside the villa, Yin Xun took a comfortable bath. Then, she brought a glass of milk to the balcony and lay on the rocking chair to enjoy the breeze. It was summer now, so it was still very hot at night. However, Yin Xun had just taken a shower, and with the breeze, it felt good. Yin Xun swayed her body as she looked at the stars.


    Suddenly, a scream came from downstairs. The sound was so shrill and frightening that Yin Xun almost dropped the cup in her hand.


    The scream sounded like it belonged to a woman. She quickly got up and walked downstairs.


    ¡°President Yin, the person who was secretly following you has been caught. What should we do with her?¡± The bodyguard pinned a person down on the ground. When she saw Yin Xun come out, she asked for instructions in a low voice.


    The lights in the courtyard were not on, and it was dark. Yin Xun took out her phone, turned on the flashlight, and squatted down to see if the person who was captured was Liu Ying.


    The light shone directly on the woman¡¯s face. Because of the blinding light, the woman instinctively closed her eyes and lowered her head in panic, trying to hide her face. However, her hair was grabbed by the bodyguard and she could not move at all. She knew that she was in the wrong, but she did not dare to scream.


    ¡°It really is you, Liu Ying.¡± Yin Xun saw the woman¡¯s appearance. It was indeed Liu Ying.


    Liu Ying was anxious. She knew that Yin Xun never cared about appearances when she did things. She was afraid that she would be sent to prison again, so she quickly explained, ¡°I-I was just passing by! Hurry up and ask her to let go of me. Otherwise¡­ Otherwise, I¡¯ll tell on you to my father!¡±


    Yin Xun was speechless. Was Liu Ying a three-year-old child? How could she tell her father? Besides, Liu Ying was the one who made the mistake. Even her father could not protect her back then. What was the point of telling on her?


    ¡°President Yin, she was not just passing by. When I caught her just now, she was releasing rats near our place. This should be illegal,¡± the bodyguard said coldly.


    Yin Xun said, Releasing rats?¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t! What evidence do you have to prove that I was the one who released the rats!¡± Liu Ying immediately denied it.


    If others found out about this, they would probably laugh at her. What a joke. There were so many rats around here. As long as she did not admit it, no one could blame her.


    However, the next moment, she knew that she was wrong.


    Yin Xun said slowly, ¡°You won¡¯t admit it? That¡¯s good. Let¡¯s go take a look at the surveillance cameras. Oh right, let me tell you, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in my house.¡±


    Yin Xun gestured for the bodyguard to let Liu Ying stand up. Then, she raised a hand and gently held Liu Ying¡¯s chin, indicating for her to look up. At the same time, she pointed at a corner of the house and said, ¡°Do you see it?¡±


    Liu Ying,


    Oh no, she had miscalculated..

 Chapter 226 - Chapter 226: Butlers Report

    Chapter 226: Butler¡¯s Report


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Only then did Liu Ying notice that outside Yin Xun¡¯s house, she could see three surveillance cameras. The running red lights were like the eyes of a monster hiding in the darkness, staring at her.


    This was the second time she had fallen into Yin Xun¡¯s hands.


    ¡®What are you going to do to me this time? Are you going to send me to the police station?¡± Liu Ying knew that it was useless to resist, so she could only accept her fate and not find excuses.


    If she was sent to prison again, her sworn enemies would laugh at her even more. Her father and brother would scold her to death.


    She knew Yin Xun¡¯s personality. It was useless even if she pleaded for mercy. This woman was ruthless and would even put down her own sister. So many people had fallen into her hands, but she had never been merciful to any of them.


    ¡®You¡¯re the one who¡¯s been following and monitoring me for the past few days, right? Why did you do this? Also, why did you plant rats near my house?¡± Yin Xun stared at Liu Ying and asked.


    If she wanted to follow her, she could understand that she was helping Si Fan. However, what did she want by releasing rats to intimidate her?


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Liu Ying said in a daze, ¡°1 followed you? How is that possible? I hate you so much that I don¡¯t ever want to see you again. I wouldn¡¯t follow you even if you paid me to! As for releasing the rats¡­¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s face instantly turned red. She stammered and said in a low voice, ¡°Girls are afraid of rats, right? I thought as long as you see rats all the time, you might move away because you¡¯re afraid..


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Do you think I¡¯m afraid of rats?¡±


    Yin Xun was shocked. What kind of magical brain circuitry was this? To think that actually tried to use rats against her.


    As expected of Yin Mo¡¯s opponents, they were all so¡­ admirable.


    ¡°So why do you want me to move?¡± Yin Xun was puzzled.


    Liu Ying said fiercely, ¡°In the past when I liked Si Fan, you were close to him. Now, I don¡¯t like Si Fan anymore. I want to pursue Fang Yao. But when I saw you coming out of Fang Yao¡¯s house the other day and holding his arm, I knew that you were here to snatch Fang Yao from me too. I can tell that your relationship with Fang Yao is not ordinary. Your attitude toward him is too good, completely unlike your usual self. If I want to pursue him, the first thing I have to do is to chase you away from here. Only then will I have a chance!¡±


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes.


    Of course, Fang Yao was her sugar daddy. If she did not treat him well, what if he was unhappy and stopped giving her money? Yin Xun complained in her heart. However, she could not tell anyone that Fang Yao was her investor.


    As for the fact that Liu Ying liked Fang Yao, she did not take that to heart at all. What interested her more was the fact that Liu Ying did not like Si Fan anymore.


    ¡°So, you don¡¯t like Si Fan anymore? You didn¡¯t approach me because of him?¡¯ Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. This situation was a little out of her expectations. That should not be right. In the original novel, Liu Ying did all kinds of illegal things because she loved Si Fan. Why did she suddenly dislike him now?


    It was unlikely that she lied to lower her guard.


    ¡°In the past, I liked Si Fan because I thought he was steady, smart, and charming. But who would have thought that he¡¯d actually resort to domestic violence?! I detest men who hit women the most. There are plenty of good men. Since his character is bad, I¡¯ll look for someone else. As for Si Fan, I¡¯ll leave him to your stupid sister,¡± Liu Ying said disdainfully as she lowered her head and spat on the ground.


    When she thought of how Yin MO had lowered her voice to Si Fan that day, she got angry again.


    Yin Xun stared at Liu Ying. Her tone was very serious; it did not seem as though she was lying.


    The more Yin Xun looked at Liu Ying, the more she felt it was true.


    Liu Ying¡¯s face turned even redder under Yin Xun¡¯s gaze. A bad premonition arose in her heart. She looked at Yin Xun warily, not knowing what was waiting for her next.


    ¡°Please come in and have a seat, Miss Liu. Be gentle and don¡¯t hurt her,¡± Yin Xun instructed Shu Yi, who was holding Liu Ying down.


    Next door, the butler had already come over to take a look when they heard screams in Yin Xun¡¯s courtyard. The courtyard was surrounded by a very short iron fence with green plants clinging to them. Therefore, the Guan family did not have to go out. The butler could see the situation in Yin Xun¡¯s courtyard just by standing on a chair.


    Seeing that the situation at Yin Xun¡¯s place seemed abnormal, he quickly went into the house to report to Fang Yao. ¡°Young Master, something seems to have happened at Miss Yin¡¯s place. Her bodyguards seem to have caught someone.


    You should go over and take a look quickly!¡±


    Fang Yao was in the study dealing with the company¡¯s matters. When he heard the butler¡¯s words, however, he immediately stood up and walked out. The butler followed closely behind, his face full of worry..

 Chapter 227 - Chapter 227: The Threat Was Successful

    Chapter 227: The Threat Was Successful


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Earlier, he had also heard Yin Xun say that she was being followed. From Yin Xun¡¯s words, it seemed to be something related to Si Fan. Fang Yao also understood what kind of person Si Fan was during this period of time. He could be described as unscrupulous. If this matter was really related to Si Fan, would Yin Xun be in danger?


    Fang Yao strode downstairs. However, just as he reached the entrance of the villa, he suddenly thought of something. He stopped and turned around to ask the butler, ¡°Did you see who was caught?¡±


    The butler said, ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, it was Miss Liu Ying. Recently, she has been running into you often lately, so I¡¯m rather familiar with her voice.¡±


    Hearing that it was Liu Ying, Fang Yao sighed softly and said, ¡®Then it¡¯s fine. They don¡¯t need my help. Yin Xun can handle it himself.¡±


    ¡°How can that be?! When the butler saw that Fang Yao did not intend to interfere in this matter, he immediately became anxious. He advised, ¡°Didn¡¯t Miss Yin say that it has something to do with Si Fan? You know what kind of person Si Fan is. What if he harms Miss Yin?¡±


    ¡°Liu Ying wasn¡¯t sent by Si Fan.¡± Fang Yao sighed helplessly. He looked over and added, ¡°Liu Ying was stalking her because of me.¡±


    The first day he saw Liu Ying, he had already sent someone to investigate. Liu Ying was clearly here because of him, not because of Si Fan. There was no need to worry.


    ¡°Huh?¡± The butler was confused. What did this have to do with the young master?


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, nothing will happen,¡± Fang Yao said shortly and returned to his room.


    Although the butler was anxious, Fang Yao had given his assurance, so it was probably fine. However, he was still a little worried and planned to go over and take a look personally.


    Just as he reached the opposite house, he heard Yin Xun invite Liu Ying into the house. Yin Xun sounded quite happy.


    It seemed that there really was no problem. Only then did the butler go back and report to Fang Yao.


    However, just in case, he still sent a servant over to watch over them. If anything happened, he could help immediately.


    Liu Ying was invited into the house by Yin Xun. She sat awkwardly on the sofa, not knowing what to do, but she did not want Yin Xun to know that. She pretended to be indifferent and said, ¡°You can kill me or torture me. It¡¯s my ill fortune to have fallen into your hands today. At most, you¡¯ll send me to the police station again. Anyway, you can¡¯t hurt me, or you won¡¯t be able to escape the consequences.¡±


    Facing Liu Ying¡¯s threat, Yin Xun did not care at all. She waved her fist in front of Liu Ying and said, ¡°I can¡¯t touch you? You¡¯re in my house now. I have plenty of ways to torture you without breaking the law. If you don¡¯t believe me, do you want to give it a try? I¡¯m sure you know that the law is not omnipotent. There are loopholes, and exploiting them is a common occurrence for businessmen like us.¡¯


    Her words were indeed effective. After hearing the threat, Liu Ying¡¯s face instantly turned pale. Yin Xun was right. There were many ways to torture people, as long as they did not injure or cripple them.


    She had seen with her own eyes how Si Fan treated his enemies. He tortured those people until they were better off dead. In the end, Si Fan got off scot-free.


    Seeing the unconcealable panic in Liu Ying¡¯s eyes, Yin Xun laughed in her heart. She was indeed a pampered young lady. She was easily frightened.


    Yin Xun was not like Si Fan¡ªshe did not have those perverted thoughts. She was a law-abiding child. How could she attack Liu Ying?


    ¡°W -What do you want? Don¡¯t forget that our two families are now in a cooperative relationship. My family is in charge of providing the materials for Donggang Hyundai City. If you make things ugly, both of us will suffer.¡± Liu Ying could only threaten Yin Xun with their families¡¯ cooperation.


    ¡°If there¡¯s a problem with the materials, it won¡¯t be our Yin family that will be affected the most, but your Liu family,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡®When the time comes, not only will you have to compensate, but your reputation will also be damaged. You should know better than me what the consequences will be. Also, back then, in order to help Si Fan, you even gave us inferior materials. I still have evidence of this. Even without this matter, I can send you to prison at any time.¡±


    Yin Xun did not mind Liu Ying¡¯s threat at all. She even threatened Liu Ying agam.


    ¡± ¡± Liu Ying knew that she was in the wrong and did not know what to say.


    Yin Xun looked at her. Seeing that Liu Ying did not speak anymore, she comforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I just have a few questions for you. As long as you answer honestly, I will consider not sending you to prison. I will also keep all this a secret for you. Only the two of us will know about this. But if you refuse, I might even release the surveillance video. I believe many people would love to see you make a fool of yourself..¡±

    Chapter 228: Did Not Keep Her Word


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Liu Ying sighed and said weakly, ¡°Go ahead.¡±


    ¡®What¡¯s going on between you and Si Fan? Didn¡¯t you love him madly in the past? You didn¡¯t even hesitate to break the law for him. Why do you suddenly hate him now?¡±


    Yin Xun certainly asked this not out of curiosity, but to confirm if her idea could be implemented.


    Liu Ying did not intend to shy away from the question. She directly told Yin Xun about the day she saw him hit Yin Mo.


    ¡°I admit that I¡¯m not that very smart, but I¡¯m not as stupid as Yin Mo. A man who commits domestic violence can¡¯t be desirable no matter what. There are so many other choices. There¡¯s no need to hang yourself on a tree for him.¡± Liu Ying¡¯s tone was calm. When she spoke of Si Fan, her tone was filled with disdain. She was clearly not as obsessed as before.


    Yin Xun was very satisfied with Liu Ying¡¯s answer. She nodded, smiled slightly, and said, ¡°So, you¡¯re now targeting Fang Yao. And you think I¡¯m an obstacle and want to get rid of me.¡±


    Liu Ying waved her hand. ¡°It¡¯s not that serious. I just want to chase you away. I¡¯ve been observing for the past few days. Fang Yao¡¯s family is rich and he has a very good character. Most importantly, other than you, there¡¯s no one else of the opposite sex by his side. He¡¯s handsome, has a good family background, and has a good personality. He¡¯s not a playboy. Since I¡¯ve found such a perfect man, naturally I have to pursue him.¡±


    On the day she gave up on Si Fan, she was in a bad mood and had been in a daze. When she went down the stairs, she did not pay attention to her feet and missed her footing, almost falling.


    She instinctively reached out to grab the railing but did not notice that there was someone beside her. She ended up grabbing Fang Yao¡¯s arm. Fang Yao reacted quickly and pulled her to safety, so nothing happened.


    After steadying himself, Fang Yao let go of her hand like a proper gentleman. He only nodded slightly at her thanks before leaving.


    Among the rich second- generation heirs she knew, they were all either ugly or disrespectful to girls. They only knew how to toy with women. However, Fang Yao was different. Later on, she tested Fang Yao and even tried seducing him. However, Fang Yao did not go overboard in response¡ªhe had won her favor.


    Men who were outstanding in all aspects were far too rare. As long she saw one, she could not let go. She had to grasp the opportunity with her own hands.


    Back then, it was unexpected that Si Fan was snatched away by Yin Mo. This time, she was chasing Fang Yao but Yin Xun made the first move. However, as long as she chased Yin Xun away and met up with Fang Yao a few more times or something, the two of them might still be together.


    ¡°So you bought a house here just to pursue Fang Yao?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. She did not expect Liu Ying to be so obsessed with men. She had just given up on one and immediately changed to another.


    However, this kind of carefreeness was not bad.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. You¡¯ve asked everything you need to know, right? Can you let me go now?¡± Liu Ying asked.


    Yin Xun shook her head and said, ¡°I¡¯ve asked all the questions, but you can¡¯t leave yet.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun was still not letting her go, Liu Ying panicked. She stood up abruptly and said accusingly, ¡°Y¡­You didn¡¯t keep your word!¡¯


    However, just as she got up, the bodyguard beside her rushed over and pressed her down again.


    ¡°Behave yourself!¡± Shu Yi warned her coldly.


    Because she had been practicing martial arts all year round, Shu Yi had a cold aura around her. She only said a few cold words, but Liu Ying was so frightened that she did not dare to struggle anymore. Instead, she sat there obediently and looked at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun comforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. I have something good to discuss with you. Although this is a little difficult for you, I¡¯m being sincere.¡±


    ¡°Go on¡­¡± Liu Ying stared at Yin Xun warily.


    Could it be that Yin Xun was the same as Yin MO and wanted to snatch her man? She decided that no matter what Yin Xun said, she would not give up on Fang Yao. She did not want to fall to the Yin sisters twice. That would be too aggravating.


    ¡°I hope we can work together¡ªI¡¯


    ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it. I won¡¯t give Fang Yao to you. Yin MO was enough. I won¡¯t lose to you sisters again!¡± Liu Ying interrupted before Yin Xun could finish.


    However, right after saying that, Liu Ying realized that Yin Xun did not seem to be asking her to give up on Fang Yao. She looked at Yin Xun in disbelief and asked, ¡°What did you just say?¡±


    ¡°If you don¡¯t agree, that¡¯s fine. I used to think that you were like Yin Mo¡ª someone who would do anything for a man. But I learned that you ¡®re a person who can let go. I want to work with you, but I didn¡¯t think you would be so resistant. Since that¡¯s the case, you can leave. There¡¯s nothing more to say between us..¡±

 Chapter 229 - Chapter 229: Sudden Gentleness

    Chapter 229: Sudden Gentleness


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, she gestured for the bodyguards to let go of Liu Ying.


    Liu Ying stood up and looked at Yin Xun blankly. What did Yin Xun mean by saying she wanted to work with her?


    ¡°Did you just say that you want to work with me? What type of work do you mean?¡± Liu Ying asked Yin Xun.


    When she met Yin Xun¡¯s half-smiling gaze, she felt a little awkward. Her face turned red as she added, ¡°Of course, there¡¯s no way I can give up on chasing Fang Yao. But I can lend you an ear for other things.¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    Why was Liu Ying so obsessed with men?


    For some reason, Yin Xun felt that there was something that she did not know about Liu Ying. In the original text, although Liu Ying had done many wrong things in the early stages, the author had written her to always listen to Si Fan. No matter if it was something good or bad, as long as Si Fan asked, she would do it.


    Now that Liu Ying had voluntarily given up on Si Fan, would her character change?


    After all, after dumping the male lead, she would no longer be used as a tool and could have her own independent thoughts.


    Yin Xun decided to give it a try. If it did not work, she would just give up.


    ¡°Be my investor , ¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡®What?!¡± Liu Ying shouted in surprise. ¡°Don¡¯t you know how things are between us? How dare you ask me to invest!¡¯


    ¡°No one will go against money. There are no eternal enemies in this world, only the eternal chance to make profits.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    ¡°Profits? Do you know who your opponent is?¡± Liu Ying rolled her eyes. In her heart, she was complaining about Yin Xun¡¯s open nature. Of all people to invest in, she actually looked for her. Did she forget how much bad blood there was between the two of them?


    Yin Xun seemed unfazed. ¡°It¡¯s Si Fan.¡±


    ¡°Obviously. Your Xintao has just started, but Si Fan¡¯s Blue Fox Company has been operating steadily for a few years already. Whether it¡¯s connections or financial resources, you¡¯re no match for Si Fan. Even if you have an investor, you might not be able to beat him on the Internet. I haven¡¯t even invested in Si Fan, so how can I invest in a small company like yours that has just started?


    ¡°If you¡¯re in the construction industry, I can still consider the investment problem. As for the Internet, forget about it. Not to mention me, even my fool of a brother can tell that Xintao won¡¯t win this war.¡±


    Liu Ying rejected the idea directly.


    ¡°Although Blue Fox is currently at a disadvantage and seems to be suppressed by Xintao, business is a protracted battle. Si Fan just hasn¡¯t managed to get any investments yet. Once there¡¯s some good news from Si Fan¡¯s side, a large number of investors will look for him. I also heard that Si Fan has pulled in new investments recently. Soon, the situation will be reversed.¡±


    Yin Xun was not surprised that Liu Ying would think this way. If she was in the construction industry, then those people would consider her suggestion. Investments were not a gamble, but basically still depended on luck.


    If she wanted to invest well, she had to determine all aspects of the problem beforehand. By doing so, if she failed, she would lose money at best. The worst-case scenario to avoid is going bankrupt.


    However, Liu Ying¡¯s rejection made Yin Xun feel more at ease. If Liu Ying agreed instantly, she would have to think about whether Liu Ying had other motives.


    ¡®Why does it sound like your relationship with your brother isn¡¯t great?¡± Yin Xun changed the topic. First, she lowered Liu Ying¡¯s guard before talking about serious matters. This kind of thing could not be rushed. ¡°However, if you¡¯re unwilling to tell me, then pretend that I didn¡¯t ask.¡±


    Liu Ying sighed and said, ¡®There¡¯s nothing I can¡¯t say. It¡¯s not a secret that we don¡¯t have a good relationship. Anyone who knows me understands this.¡±


    As she spoke, Liu Ying sat down again. She looked dejected and depressed. Yin Xun asked, ¡°Do you want something to drink? Milk, coffee, or juice?¡± ¡°I want iced milk, thank you.¡± Liu Ying softened her tone.


    Yin Xun got up and went to pour milk for Liu Ying. She also took some fruits and snacks and placed them in front of Liu Ying.


    ¡°Eat something sweet and your mood will improve,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Yin Xun¡¯s sudden gentleness shocked Liu Ying. Why did she suddenly change her temper? She was not used to it.


    ¡°I¡¯m not Yin Mo. There¡¯s no enmity between the two of us. Moreover, the Liu family and our Yin family are business partners. We¡¯ve been cooperating for many years. If it weren¡¯t for Si Fan, our relationship wouldn¡¯t have become so bad.¡± Yin Xun tried using reason to persuade her..

 Chapter 230 - Chapter 230: Unreliable Men

    Chapter 230: Unreliable Men


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°There¡¯s no need for you to treat me as an imaginary enemy. There¡¯s no conflict of interest between us. In the past, it was just a small conflict. Don¡¯t take it to heart. I don¡¯t plan to scheme against you.¡±


    Liu Ying was touched by Yin Xun¡¯s words. However, she quickly reacted and said warily, ¡°Don¡¯t think that I¡¯ll agree to cooperate with you just because you said a few nice words!¡¯


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°1 won¡¯t force you to cooperate with me. Business is all about mutual consent. If one party is forced, then this business will be in trouble sooner or later. Besides, we were talking about you and your brother just now.¡±


    Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun with a complicated expression. After a while, she slowly said, ¡°l noticed that you¡¯ve just returned to the country but are already able to display your skills in the Yin family. I suppose your family doesn¡¯t favor boys over girls, right?¡¯


    When favoritism was mentioned, Yin Xun could vaguely guess what was going


    As expected, Liu Ying continued, ¡°My parents love me a lot. My brother treats me well too. At the very least, he will buy me anything I want. They will support me no matter what I choose to do. Even if I lose a lot of money, they will only scold me a little. They will never really punish me.


    ¡°In the past, I thought that my brother and I had the same status in my parents¡¯ hearts. Actually, I even had a higher status than my brother because they always said that girls should be pampered and boys had to bear more responsibility. Later on, I realized what they meant. They never thought of giving me a share of the family¡¯s assets. The reason why they¡¯re so good to me now is that they know that I won¡¯t get a share in the future. They¡¯re just compensating me now.


    ¡°My father always said that I was not suitable for business, but he never treated my brother like that. My brother¡¯s IQ is not even as high as mine. He¡¯s messed up many collaborations already. But my father still thinks that he¡¯s the only one who can inherit the family business. ¡®


    Liu Ying picked up the milk and drankit in one gulp. Yin Xun¡¯s face twitched. Although the milk was not boiling, it was still very hot. Did Liu Ying not feel uncomfortable?


    Just as she was about to show some concern for Liu Ying, Liu Ying continued talking.


    ¡°Back then, I questioned my parents about why they had to give the family assets to my brother. I was their child too, but my parents said that I was a girl and that I should just find a good man to marry in the future. There was no need for me to worry about money. They would find a man with a deep-rooted background for me. Inheriting family assets is a man¡¯s business. Women shouldn¡¯t get involved. ¡±


    Liu Ying sighed. ¡°Whenever I object, they will say that they treated me well already. Do we not provide food or clothes for you? Why does a girl always want to fight with her brother? She¡¯s too insensible.


    ¡°I can¡¯t accept it. Why should I be their child but not be qualified to inherit the family business? So, I secretly made up my mind to challenge my brother. It doesn¡¯t matter how much money I have, but I want to fight for my dignity. Since we¡¯re both their children, we should be treated equally. If the parents are biased, they can¡¯t blame the child for resisting.


    ¡°It would be hard for me to fight against my brother with my own strength. I¡¯m not convinced, though. I want to find a man who¡¯s better than my brother in all aspects, someone who can help me fight for the family property. In the end, I¡¯m not aiming for my family assets.¡±


    The more she spoke, the angrier she became. This feeling of injustice could only be experienced by being part of it.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes flashed. Her chance had come.


    ¡°But have you considered something? A man with a good character won¡¯t simply help you deal with your family. Instead, he will push you to deal with your family by yourself. Can you really guarantee that your family assets won¡¯t be targeted by him in the end?¡¯


    Yin Xun¡¯s words hit the nail on the head. Liu Ying¡¯s expression suddenly changed and she said defensively, ¡°Of course, I know what you mean! I believe in my judgment of people. Something like that won¡¯t happen! ¡®


    ¡°Relying on others will always cause accidents,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°People change. Even if he was sincere to you at that time, how can you guarantee that he won¡¯t change in the future? How many once-loving couples have turned against each other because of money? It¡¯s still the same thing. In the face of benefits, feelings are disregarded. Feelings are the most difficult thing to handle. Only something you can feel in your hands can be reassuring.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words made sense. Liu Ying wanted to retort, but she did not know what to say. At this moment, she was like a deflated ball, sitting weakly on the sofa and not moving.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you want to rely on your own strength to prove to your parents that you are the one who should inherit the family assets instead of your brainless brother?¡± Yin Xun said casually..

 Chapter 231 - Chapter 231: You Think Thats Too Little?

    Chapter 231: You Think That¡¯s Too Little?


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Liu Ying did not answer immediately. She was obviously tempted.


    After thinking a moment, Liu Ying said sheepishly, ¡°Even if I want to invest, my parents might not give me much money. They¡¯ve never supported my business plans, especially when it comes to materials. They won¡¯t let me come into direct contact with the company.¡±


    Yin Xun mulled over this. This was a problem. She had actually neglected such an important matter.


    Just as she was thinking about how to solve this problem, she heard Liu Ying say, ¡°l only have 20 million yuan in my hands now. This is what I¡¯ve been saving since I was young. If you want more, I have to think of something.¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    What was the concept of money in Liu Ying¡¯s eyes? ¡®Ihwenty million yuan was too little? This was more than enough!


    ¡°This is enough. You¡¯ll get a share of the profits no matter how much you invest.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Liu Ying frowned. She seemed to have something bothering her. Yin Xun knew that if Liu Ying wanted to say something, she would have said it long ago. If Liu Ying did not want to say it, she could not force her. Otherwise, it would have the opposite effect.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright. You can go back and think about it. Just give me an answer within a week. We¡¯re currently in the preparation stage and haven¡¯t gotten on the right track yet. Contact me anytime after confirming that you want to sign the contract.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun walked to the cabinet beside her and took out two folders.


    Yin Xun opened a folder and placed it in front of Liu Ying. ¡®This is the proposal for the short video platform. It contains detailed information about this project.¡± Then, she opened the folder below and handed it to Liu Ying. ¡°This is the latest sales data of Xintao.¡±


    Liu Ying took the document and glanced at it. She looked at Yin Xun in shock.


    ¡°How can you show me such information?! We¡¯re not business partners yet.


    Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll leak your internal data?¡±


    She had a conflict with Yin Xun in the past, and they might also develop into love rivals in the future.


    As far as she knew, Yin Xun was not the kind of person who would trust others easily. Now that she had shown her these, if she did not agree, would she do something to her?


    ¡°I sincerely want to work with you. I don¡¯t think anyone can refuse to make money. It¡¯s better to have more friends than enemies. If you go ahead and leak the secrets, I think you know what will be waiting for you,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. She did not mean to threaten Liu Ying. She was just telling the truth.


    ¡°Of course, you can only read the document here. You can¡¯t take it back with you,¡± Yin Xun added.


    Yin Xun was very sincere. Just now, Liu Ying was still puzzled and thought that Yin Xun definitely had bad intentions. However, now that Yin Xun had gone so far as to show her the company¡¯s secrets, it would be foolish for her to doubt her again.


    She took a closer look at the two documents this time. Xintao¡¯s business state was very good. Both the user registration and purchase volume were rising exponentially. This was pretty good for a company that had just started. It could also be seen that Yin Xun¡¯s business acumen was indeed very strong.


    Yin Xun meant to develop Xintao and the short video platform at the same time so that the two would complement each other. Now that Xintao was already doing well, the short video website must meet the standard.


    If she took a gamble..


    Liu Ying returned the documents to Yin Xun and said, ¡°I¡¯ll go back and think about it.¡±


    ¡°If you manage to do something, you can prove to your parents that you¡¯re better than your brother. Then, it¡¯s not impossible for you to inherit the family assets in the future.¡± Yin Xun struck while the iron was hot.


    Liu Ying did not hate Yin Xun as much as she did in the beginning. In the end, she even offered a smile.


    The two of them chatted for a while longer before Yin Xun personally sent Liu Ying out. When the two of them walked to the door, they were still chatting and laughing. When the neighboring servants who had been monitoring nearby saw this, they immediately reported to the butler.


    The butler told Fang Yao about this matter again. ¡®Young Master, Miss Yin and Miss Liu came out. The two of them seemed to be chatting rather happily, and they were laughing. It is really strange. The two of them looked like enemies at the beginning. How did their relationship suddenly become so good?¡±


    Not only was the butler puzzled, but Fang Yao was too. He did not know the answer either. It seemed that the next time he saw Yin Xun, he would have to ask her. At the same time, he would also ask whether the person stalking her was Liu Ying.


    After Yin Xun sent Liu Ying away, she stretched and prepared to go back to sleep.


    She returned to the bedroom and had just turned off the lights when she realized that Fang Yao¡¯s room was lit. She gave it some thought, then put on her clothes and went to the balcony.


    As expected, Fang Yao was looking directly at Yin Xun. As soon as Yin Xun arrived at the balcony, Fang Yao opened the window to greet her.


    ¡°So, that person earlier was Liu Ying?¡± Fang Yao asked..

 Chapter 232 - Chapter 232: Overspending

    Chapter 232: Overspending


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun nodded. She was not surprised that Fang Yao knew about her. He must have realized if when Liu Ying screamed.


    ¡°She¡¯s my esteemed guest now.¡± Yin Xun stretched and said happily.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. ¡°Oh? What do you mean?¡±


    ¡°Didn¡¯t I just start another project? I can get her to invest in me. Although it hasn¡¯t been confirmed yet, I have a feeling that she will agree.¡± Yin Xun sounded smug.


    ¡®Why didn¡¯t you want me to invest this time?¡± Fang Yao¡¯s tone was a little dark.


    He was Yin Xun¡¯s first investor and had built Xintao with her. Now, that company was gradually stabilizing. During this period, Yin Xun would come to him whenever he encountered difficulties. He was used to it by now.


    Currently, Yin Xun needed to invest in a new project but did not look for him. Instead, she spent so much effort to find someone else.


    For some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable. He had clearly said that as long as Yin Xun had something to do, she could look for him at any time.


    Yin Xun smiled ingratiatingly and explained, ¡°l can¡¯t just keep asking you for money, right? No matter how rich you are, you can¡¯t spend it all on me. Your Fang family¡¯s business is so big, there must be many places where you need money.¡±


    These words sounded extremely considerate, but Yin Xun did not dare to say the real reason. She could not tell Fang Yao directly that this was to avoid risk. The eggs could not be placed in the same basket. Otherwise, once the basket fell, all the eggs would be gone.


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes flashed and he immediately understood Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts.


    He stopped dwelling on this question and changed the topic. He asked, ¡°Then is she the one who has been stalking you recently?¡±


    At this point, Yin Xun¡¯s smile instantly disappeared. She shook her head. ¡°It¡¯s not her.


    That figure was very similar to Liu Ying¡¯s. Although it was not Liu Ying, Yin Xun could sense that it was likely a woman.


    ¡®What do you plan to do about that?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Fang Yao was not that worried about Yin Xun¡¯s safety since Yin Xun was a cautious person. She was aware that she had a conflict with Si Fan recently and would bring bodyguards wherever she went.


    Fang Yao had personally chosen the two bodyguards, and he knew very well how capable they were. Moreover, after their period of training, Yin Xun¡¯s physical fitness improved a lot, so fleeing was definitely not a problem.


    Yin Xun snapped her fingers and narrowed her eyes. She said coldly, ¡°We¡¯ll beat them at their own game.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun yawned and sighed. ¡°I¡¯m so tired. I¡¯m heading to sleep and saving my energy. I still have a tough battle tomorrow. ¡®


    Fang Yao was amused by Yin Xun¡¯s words. He nodded. ¡®Then go and rest. Good night.¡±


    ¡°Good night.¡± Yin Xun turned around and went back into the house. The moment her hand touched the door, she suddenly turned around. To her surprise, Fang Yao was still looking at her from the window. She called out,


    ¡°Fang Yao.¡±


    ¡°Yes?¡¯ Fang Yao replied softly.


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°Do you have too many flowers at home?¡±


    Yin Xun had actually noticed this problem. Ever since he said that he wanted flowers, Yin Xun would always send him flowers as a gift. Regardless of whether they would bloom or not, as long as they looked good, she would bring them back for him. At the peak, she had given him more than 20 pots of different varieties!


    Fang Yao knew that Yin Xun had good intentions and wanted to make him happy, but this method¡­ was indeed a little eccentric.


    ¡°I think so. I can¡¯t fit them in my bedroom anymore, and the balcony is full. It¡¯s like a small garden now. At night, I even feel like I¡¯m lacking oxygen,¡± Fang Yao said after considering his words.


    He said it very tactfully because he did not want to hurt Yin Xun¡¯s good intentions.


    Yin Xun listened to his words and lowered her head to think for a moment.


    Then, he said, ¡°I understand. Good night and get some rest.¡±


    From the looks of it, would Yin Xun no longer give him flowers in the future?


    He was actually looking forward to what she would give him now.


    Seeing Yin Xun turn off the lights, Fang Yao closed his window.


    The next day, Yin Xun woke up early. When she went downstairs, Fang Yao was already waiting for her at the entrance of the villa.


    The two of them greeted each other and started their morning run.


    The weather was a little overcast. Usually, the sky would be bright at this time, but today, it was still gray. Occasionally, a breeze would blow past them. Yin Xun sniffed the air¡ª it seemed to smell like rain.


    ¡°Looks like it¡¯s going to rain today,¡± Yin Xun said to Fang Yao as she jogged.


    Now that her body was getting more and more used to exercising, she could even speak while running.


    ¡°The weather forecast says that there¡¯s no rain. The sky will probably clear by noon,¡± Fang Yao looked up at the sky and said seriously..

 Chapter 233 - Chapter 233: Logistics Problem

    Chapter 233: Logistics Problem


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun had always trusted Fang Yao. Since Fang Yao said that it would not rain, she felt relieved. She had been wondering if she should bring an umbrella. Speaking of rain, her umbrella was broken. It seemed like she had to buy a new one after work.


    After their run, Yin Xun went back to take a simple shower and went straight to the office.


    The first thing she did when she arrived at the company was to look for Mi Jin.


    For the past few days, she had asked Mi Jin to keep an eye on Blue Fox. Sure enough, there was news. The prices of the goods on Blue Fox¡¯s platform had all increased.


    Yin Xun asked Mi Jin to leave behind the evidence and monitor Xintao¡¯s situation in real -time.


    After giving her instructions, she looked for Lan Hui, the person in charge of the operations department, and asked her about the logistics situation.


    ¡°President Yin, although we have just started, because the sales volume is too large, there is a small problem with logistics,¡± Lan Hui reported truthfully.


    Yin Xun frowned. ¡®What problem?¡±


    ¡°Currently, there are only two logistics companies that are working with us. The other veterans are working with Blue Fox. The two companies that are working with us have been suppressed by others in the past. They chose to work with us because they can¡¯t survive on Blue Fox¡¯s side.


    ¡°Although they¡¯re already trying their best to recruit people, because their foundation is weak, it¡¯s impossible for them to recruit enough employees on short notice. This leads to our sales volume being very high, but the shipments are slow. Some customers are getting impatient and have been urging the shipment to speed up,¡± Lan Hui said in a low voice.


    Yin Xun did not expect the logistics problem to be so serious. She frowned.


    Recently, she had been busy with the website and had neglected the logistics.


    ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you report it earlier?¡± Yin Xun was a little unhappy.


    The matter was so serious. If she had not asked, was Lan Hui going to let the matter escalate even further?


    Lan Hui explained, ¡°President Yin, we have just started a few days ago. It is normal for us to not be able to keep up with the logistics. Moreover, they are already urgently recruiting people on their side. I originally wanted to observe for a few days before reporting to you.¡±


    Yin Xun frowned and said, ¡°Forget about what happened this time. Remember to tell me immediately if something like this happens again. Don¡¯t underestimate each mistake. The slightest mistake can send us off track a thousand miles. You think it¡¯s fine if the logistics are slow, but this could become the reason why the users change platforms. ¡®


    ¡°I am sorry, President Yin. I will remember this in the future.¡± Lan Hui immediately apologized.


    Seeing that Lan Hui¡¯s attitude was good and the mistake was unintentional, Yin Xun waved her hand and said, ¡°Go back. I¡¯ll handle this matter. If there are any other problems, remember to tell me immediately.¡±


    ¡°Alright,¡± Lan Hui said and turned to leave.


    Yin Xun sighed. The most troublesome thing for the shopping platform had appeared. Logistics was not an easy issue to solve.


    There were buyers all over the country. Deliveries had to be sent to various places and they had to be time-sensitive. It seemed that she had to think of a way to solve this problem.


    Back in her office, Yin Xun began to think about how best to solve the delivery problem.


    Recalling the delivery system in her original world, Yin Xun gradually had an idea. A plan surfaced in her mind and she quickly began to draft it.


    Halfway through, Mi Jin came over again.


    He knocked on the door and waited for Yin Xun to answer before he pushed the door open and entered. He handed his phone over to Yin Xun and said,


    ¡°President Yin, take a look at this post. It is related to our Xintao. I feel that this was done by Si Fan again.¡±


    Yin Xun took the phone and read the post.


    A Level 8 user made a post related to Xintao. The post claimed that the items sold on Xintao were all flawed. The person complained that Xintao was just a small greenhorn website. It was not as reliable as Blue Fox.


    The person said that he had never had any trouble when buying things in Blue Fox. Recently, he saw that there was an event in Xintao, so he came to register to purchase things. The things were cheap, but he did not expect there to be a problem. In hindsight, he should have bought them at the original price.


    Below the post was a photo of what this person had bought. He had bought clothes, and his so-called problem was that the bag was torn, even though the clothes inside were still good.


    The highest level a user could have on this website was only Level 9. This person was already Level 8, so his visibility was very high, attracting many people to comment. Most of them had the mentality of watching some drama; only a few people joined the slandering party and claimed that Xintao was incompetent.


    Yin Xun looked down at the comments. There were many real-time comments, but all the comments that spoke up for Xintao quickly disappeared. Those who criticized Xintao, even if there had very few likes and replies, occupied the front row.


    This meant that the blogger had ¡°liked¡± those comments.


    ¡°President Yin, although there are few of these posts now, if we don¡¯t do anything about it, there will be more and more of them. In the end, it will affect the trustworthiness of Xintao. Shall I contact that blogger and get him to delete the post?¡± Mi Jin was angry when he saw this. He wanted to contact that person directly, but he knew that it would be better for Yin Xun to make the decision..

    He was a technician and did not understand the twists and turns in the business world. It would be bad if he acted in Yin Xun¡¯s stead. Si Fan might be the one who benefited in the end.


    Yin Xun closed the post and refreshed the page. As expected, there were a few more new posts criticizing Xintao. Everyone¡¯s words were similar, and they all sounded indignant on that person¡¯s behalf.


    Yin Xun looked at it for a while and said sulkily, ¡°These people are so pitiful. They¡¯re even using a harmless photo to attack Xintao. It¡¯s too easy to find fault. After receiving the goods, they can just poke the package without unwrapping it. The things inside will break. Then, they can make an unboxing video. That way, the evidence will be more convincing.¡±


    Mi Jin,


    Why did Yin Xun ¡®s tone sound empathetic? This was her company being slandered. Why did she look like she was watching a show? Not only was she not anxious, but she was also complaining about those people¡¯s methods.


    Mi Jin opened his mouth but did not say anything. He just looked at Yin Xun.


    After browsing for a while, there were not too many posts. Yin Xun was still a little unsatisfied.


    ¡°Si Fan is so stingy. Since he wants to defeat us in terms of public opinion, he should at least find more people and make hundreds of posts. Then, he can hire internet trolls to comment on them. Only then would it be effective¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun say this, Mi Jin could not help but complain. ¡°President Yin, you seem to be looking forward to your own company being slandered.¡±


    ¡°Ah well, seeing that Si Fan is finally willing to spend some money to deal with me, things aren¡¯t simple. Since that¡¯s the case, we have to return the favor.¡± Yin Xun returned the phone to Mi Jin and said, ¡°Aren¡¯t they slandering the things we sell? Then let¡¯s post about them raising prices before giving discounts.


    ¡°It just so happens that Blue Fox¡¯s phone app isn¡¯t online yet. If things get out of hand, their phone apps will be affected.¡±


    Mi Jin immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. He said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll do it now.¡±


    ¡°Remember to hire more trolls. We must make a big deal out of this. The bigger the better. After all, we have money,¡± Yin Xun said to Mi Jin with a smile.


    After Mi Jin left, Yin Xun continued to formulate a plan. Mi Jin would handle Blue Fox. No one wanted Si Fan¡¯s downfall more than Mi Jin. She was quite relieved about this.


    After formulating the plan, Yin Xun called the express delivery bosses one by one to discuss her thoughts with them. By the time she was done, it was almost time to get off work.


    Time passed too quickly. Yin Xun felt that she had just finished lunch, and was rather surprised that it was already time to get off work.


    She looked at the time. There was still half an hour before her office hours ended. After a busy day, she was a little dizzy.


    She stretched and got up. She opened the blinds and realized that it was raining outside.


    The rain was very heavy, but it made no sound, so she did not realize it earlier.


    At the thought that she did not have an umbrella, Yin Xun could not help but feel a little troubled. Although she had driven here, the parking lot was not underground, but outside. In other words, she had to walk for a while before she could enter the car.


    She would definitely be drenched from that short journey.


    In the morning, Fang Yao had confidently told her that it would not rain¡ªshe actually believed him without a doubt!


    From the looks of it, the rain would not stop anytime soon. Yin Xun sighed and decided to work overtime until the rain lessened.


    Because the technology in this world was not very advanced, it felt inconvenient to do anything. It would be great if she could order takeout, or if she could call a taxi on her phone to pick her up at the entrance of the company.


    At the thought of this, a few more ideas popped up in Yin Xun¡¯s mind. In that case, she could tap into these businesses.


    However, when she thought about how busy Xintao and the short video site were, Yin Xun decided to give up for the time being. When Xintao stabilized and the short video website was on the right track, she would be able to work on her next project. By then, she would have enough cash flow.


    Yin Xun sat back down and was about to read some documents when her phone suddenly rang.


    She took out her phone and saw that it was Fang Yao.


    Pressing the answer button, Yin Xun asked, ¡°Fang Yao? What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s slightly magnetic voice came through the phone. ¡°Are you getting off work soon? I happened to pass by your company. Let¡¯s go back together.¡±


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s words, Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. She had seen Fang Yao off to his company. It was in a different direction from hers, so why would he pass by? However, she quickly thought of a reason. The Fang family had a big business, so there must be more than one company. Perhaps the company building Fang Yao went to today was near hers.


    Yin Xun did not decline. ¡°I can leave anytime. Just let me know when you arrive.¡±


    Fang Yao said, ¡®Then come down now. I¡¯m at the entrance of your company..¡±

 Chapter 235 - Chapter 235: Yin Xuns Boyfriend

    Chapter 235: Yin Xun¡¯s Boyfriend


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun did not expect Fang Yao to be so considerate. She was afraid that Fang Yao would get impatient, so she packed her things and quickly walked out. When she passed by Mi Jin¡¯s office, she did not forget to remind him to pay attention to the rain and go home early.


    When Yin Xun arrived downstairs, she saw a few female employees leaning against the glass door and looking out. They were so focused that they did not even notice Yin Xun walking to their side.


    ¡®What are you guys looking at?¡± Yin Xun whispered into the ear of a female employee.


    The female employee said without turning her head, ¡°Hey, don¡¯t be so close to me. Didn¡¯t you see? That man outside is so handsome. He doesn¡¯t seem to be from our company. I wonder if he has a girlfriend. I really want to get his contact information.¡¯


    Yin Xun followed the employee¡¯s gaze and saw a man standing beside the iron tree at the door. He was slender and wore a white shirt and pants. He was expressionless and exuded an unapproachable aura. This person was Fang Yao, who had come to pick her up.


    As Yin Xun looked at him, a girl bravely ran to Fang Yao shyly and said something to him. Perhaps she was incredibly shy; her face was red and her voice was very soft. Yin Xun pricked up her ears, but she could not hear anything.


    After the girl said a few words, Fang Yao only smiled slightly and shook his head. He stopped looking at the girl after that.


    The girl turned around and walked over with an air of defeat.


    ¡°I did not expect Xiao Yu to be rejected. She¡¯s the most beautiful person in our company other than President Yin. Even she got turned down. Looks like we don¡¯t have a chance anymore,¡± someone said regretfully.


    When Xiao Yu walked to the door, everyone moved aside so that she could enter. However, when they turned around, they saw Yin Xun standing next to them.


    ¡°P¡ªPresident Yin!¡± After these few girls saw Yin Xun, they immediately lost the infatuated look on their faces. It was as if they had seen a ghost. They were so frightened that they turned pale. There was even one timid girl whose body was trembling.


    Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°It¡¯s raining today. If you¡¯re done with your work, you can get off work. I¡¯ll talk to the human resources department tomorrow. No salary deduction. ¡±


    ¡°O-okay, President Yin, are you leaving now?¡± The girl who had complained about Yin Xun being too close to her asked.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°My friend is here to pick me up. It¡¯s not appropriate to make him wait. I¡¯ll leave first. You guys can get off work early today.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun bid farewell to the girls and left.


    Although she looked calm on the surface, she was actually muttering in her heart. Why were these people so frightened when they saw her? Were they worried that she would blame them for leaving their posts during working hours?


    Actually, this was a small problem. As long as it did not delay her own work, she did not mind what her employees did.


    Even after Yin Xun left, the employees were still rooted to the ground. It was not until they saw the man outside greet Yin Xun¡ªeven holding an umbrella for her¡ªthat everyone understood that the man was there for Yin Xun.


    No wonder he had rejected Xiao Yu. It turned out that Yin Xun was his girlfriend!


    Although Yin Xun only said that they were friends, everyone tacitly believed that he was her boyfriend.


    Hence, the news that President Yin had a boyfriend¡ªa super handsome man at that¡ªquickly spread throughout the company.


    The protagonist, Yin Xun, was unaware of this.


    After Yin Xun came out of the building, she simply greeted Fang Yao. After that, Fang Yao held an umbrella and escorted her to his car.


    The rain was very heavy. Even with the umbrella, the two of them were drenched.


    Yin Xun patted her wet leggings and asked, ¡°Do you even have a company near ours? Why haven ¡®t I heard you mention it before?¡±


    ¡°No, I just happened to pass by here for something else. Since it was raining, and I was the one who told you it wouldn¡¯t rain, I was worried that you didn¡¯t bring an umbrella. I came to pick you up. After all, this is my fault, so it¡¯s only right for me to make up for it,¡± Fang Yao said calmly. ¡°I see. That¡¯s a pity.¡± Yin Xun sighed and said regretfully.


    ¡®What¡¯s wrong?¡± Fang Yao asked her.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°1 thought your company was nearby. If that¡¯s the case, we can have a meal together since we have time. But it turns out that you¡¯re just in the area to do something.¡±


    Fang Yao said, ¡®That¡¯s the only reason?¡±


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°What else could it be?¡±


    When the driver heard their conversation, he was extremely anxious.


    At this moment, he desperately wanted to tell Yin Xun that the young master was free today and had specially come to pick Yin Xun up.


    However, he did not dare to say anything about his boss. He could only keep it in his heart. However, he planned to tell the butler about this when he returned..

    The rain got heavier and heavier. Yin Xun looked out of the car window. All she could see was a vast expanse of white. She could not see into the distance at all. The rain hit the car with a clattering sound as if it was being peppered by rocks.


    Surely this was not ordinary rain? It was clearly hail.


    The cars on the road were moving very slowly. Not long after, the car suddenly stopped. The driver said, ¡°Young Master, the road ahead is blocked. There are police cars and ambulances outside. I think there was an accident. ¡®


    ¡°Is there another way back?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Fang Yao was not familiar with this area. Even when he came over, he would have a driver, so he did not know if there was another way.


    Yin Xun looked up. The road was not very wide, to begin with. Now, it was blocked.


    ¡°This is a one-way road. If you want to go back, you have to go to the front. Anyway, if you want to take another path, you¡¯ll have to take a long detour,¡¯ Yin Xun answered.


    ¡°The drainage system in this area isn¡¯t very good. On normal days, it¡¯s easy for water to accumulate. Now that the rain is so heavy, I reckon it won¡¯t be long before water overflows to the ground. If there¡¯s too much water, the car will get soaked.¡± Yin Xun leaned against the car window and looked out. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She turned around and asked Fang Yao, ¡°Fang Yao, are you in a hurry to go back?¡¯


    Fang Yao shook his head. ¡®There¡¯s no rush. What do you have in mind?¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s a cinema nearby. The parking lot there is built on high ground. Since you don¡¯t have anything urgent, how about we park there first?¡¯ Yin Xun asked.


    Cinema? Fang Yao thought for a moment. Could it be that Yin Xun wanted to watch a movie? This was a good opportunity.


    ¡°Alright,¡± Fang Yao agreed with a smile.


    Yin Xun instructed the driver to drive to the cinema. After parking the car, Yin Xun and Fang Yao walked towards the cinema.


    Yin Xun wanted to ask the driver to come along, but the driver knew his place. The servants all knew Fang Yao¡¯s feelings for Yin Xun. It was not easy for the two of them to have time alone, and they were even watching a movie now. Naturally, he would not disturb them.


    It was indeed hailing outside. The two of them walked toward the entrance of the cinema through the hail. Yin Xun raised her head and looked at the umbrella Fang Yao was holding. She could not help but arch her eyebrows. When she got back later, she would definitely ask Fang Yao where he had bought this umbrella. The quality was so good.


    Because of the heavy rain, there was no one in the theater lobby except the ticket seller.


    Fang Yao was just about to go to the front desk to see if there were any movies to watch when Yin Xun pulled him in another direction. Fang Yao asked in confusion, ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to watch a movie?¡±


    ¡®When did I say I wanted to watch a movie? Do you want to watch one? If you do, we can go and watch it. It¡¯s still early anyway.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was serious, and she did not seem to be joking.


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­Then why are you here?¡¯


    ¡®You¡¯ll know in a while.¡± Yin Xun gave Fang Yao a mysterious smile and then stopped talking.


    Although he did not know what Yin Xun was up to, Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun holding his hand and his lips curled up slightly. This was not too bad either.


    The two of them took the elevator to the underground and passed through a corridor that looked old and dilapidated. Only then did Fang Yao understand what Yin Xun wanted to do.


    ¡®We¡¯re here. I¡¯ve been seeing the advertisements recently. I¡¯ve been wanting to come over for a long time, but there¡¯s a rule here that only two people who know each other can enter. I was just wondering who to find to accompany me, but now¡­¡± Yin Xun said as she pointed at the entrance of the Haunted House.


    It turned out that Yin Xun was looking for this haunted house. What kind of hobby was this?


    The corner of Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched, and he sighed helplessly in his heart. He originally thought that Yin Xun had finally become a normal human, but now he realized that he was wrong.


    Before entering, Yin Xun asked Fang Yao, ¡°Are you afraid of going into the haunted house? If you¡¯re scared and don¡¯t want to go in, we can just watch a moue.¡±


    Yin Xun did not like to force her friends to do anything. Besides, even boys could be afraid of this thing, so if Fang Yao said he did not want to go, she would not go in.


    ¡°I¡¯ve never been here. I don¡¯t mind going and taking a look.¡± Fang Yao wanted to say that he was not afraid, but after thinking about it, he decided not to make such a confident statement.


    Seeing that Fang Yao was not against it, Yin Xun was relieved. She pulled Fang


    Yao inside.


    The outside of the haunted house was decorated in a terrifying and oppressive manner, but the hall was surprisingly cozy. There was no element of horror at all. This was different from the haunted houses she had imagined.


    Yin Xun was mumbling discontentedly in her heart when she turned her head and saw two people sitting beside her. A girl was burying her head in a boy¡¯s chest. Her body was twitching and she looked like she was crying.


    Seeing this scene, Yin Xun immediately understood. The inside was horribly scary¡ªthe owners were afraid that the customers would not be able to recover when they came out, so the outside hall was warm and comfortable.


    She looked forward to going in even more..

    Yin Xun went over to buy tickets. After that, the staff took away their phones.


    While explaining the things to take note of, he led them into the Haunted House. Before they entered, he gave them a walkie-talkie. After Yin Xun and Fang Yao entered, the staff immediately closed the door.


    It was pitch-black inside. Yin Xun could not see anything. She could only feel a cold wind blowing from the front. Other than that, there was nothing else.


    ¡°This place is more like a secret room than a simple haunted house. There might be a lot of rooms and we could have to find something to reach the next level. Follow me closely. If we¡¯re not together when we exit, it¡¯s equivalent to losing.¡± Yin Xun turned to pull Fang Yao¡¯s hand.


    They were just at the beginning of the corridor, so although it was dark, there was nothing there.


    The surroundings were too dark. Yin Xun held Fang Yao with one hand and reached around with the other. She touched a door, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not open it. It seemed that this was an illusion. The exit was somewhere else.


    ¡°Is there even a winner for something like this?¡¯ Fang Yao obediently allowed Yin Xun to pull him as he looked around from time to time.


    It was said that Haunted Houses liked to scare people from behind. As long as he watched Yin Xun from behind, things should be fine.


    Since she could not find the exit from above, Yin Xun squatted down and began to search from a lower vantage.


    ¡°There¡¯s an event ongoing. If two people exit together within the specified time, they will receive a prize. The prize is a small white ghost doll.¡± As Yin Xun spoke, her hands did not delay at all.


    ¡°Doll? You like ghost dolls?¡± Fang Yao seemed to have noticed something and raised his eyebrows.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, it¡¯s because I¡¯m also a ghost. I think that ghost is summoning me.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun thought for a moment. Actually, there was nothing wrong with her saying this. She came from another world, and her soul did not belong here.


    There was one more thing. She had an identical doll in her original world. She went online to check and realized that this doll was only available in this haunted house.


    This was the only connection she had found to her original world. Although this new world was also very good, in her spare time, she still occasionally missed the previous world.


    In any case, she was determined to get this doll.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid of what will happen if you say such things in the Haunted House?¡± Fang Yao laughed. He did not know if Yin Xun was really not afraid or if she was just a fool. If it were any other girl, they would probably have been frightened by now.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. I like ghosts,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    ¡°I like ghosts too.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s heart stirred.


    He stared at Yin Xun. As it was pitch-black, Yin Xun could not see his expression, so Fang Yao did not hide the emotions in his eyes.


    When Yin Xun heard this, she was instantly amused. She smiled and said, ¡°We¡¯re indeed neighbors and partners. Even our tastes are the same. We¡¯re bound by fate!¡¯ Fang Yao, Fate.¡±


    Fang Yao was glad that he was used to Yin Xun¡¯s way of thinking by now. He had no doubt that if he confessed that he liked her, Yin Xun would understand what he meant. She would even proudly say, ¡°Then you have good taste. I like myself too.¡±


    Forget it. This kind of thing could not be rushed. He needed to let Yin Xun discover it herself. Even if he wanted to confess, he had to wait until the day Yin Xun had a good impression of him. Otherwise, it would be too sudden for her. Not only would it scare Yin Xun, but their cooperation might also be affected.


    He would just think of it as training his patience. He believed that one day, he would be able to find a place in Yin Xun¡¯s heart.


    The haunted house was huge. They had already passed through seven rooms and had yet to exit. These rooms were also very big. There were all kinds of terrifying props inside. There were fans blowing, ghosts screaming, and crying.


    Yin Xun was not afraid but her head hurt from the noisy atmosphere.


    ¡°It¡¯s too lively here. Even if real ghosts come, they¡¯ll probably be chased away,¡±


    Yin Xun complained.


    ¡°Be careful not to be caught off guard. Since this Haunted House is very popular, there must be something outstanding about it. Don¡¯t you think the first few rooms are a little too plain? If I¡¯m not wrong, we¡¯re about to reach a truly scary place,¡± Fang Yao suddenly said in a low voice.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. I almost forgot about that. The most terrifying thing is to be caught off guard.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s greatest advantage here was that she listened to Fang Yao¡¯s advice. When she heard Fang Yao¡¯s words, she immediately began to pay attention to the surroundings.


    She searched everywhere and finally found the exit to this room. Just as she was about to push the door open, Yin Xun¡¯s hand suddenly froze..

 Chapter 238 - Chapter 238: Fang Yao Was Injured

    Chapter 238: Fang Yao Was Injured


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    At this moment, a woman in red was quietly floating above Yin Xun¡¯s head. Her face was blocked by her long black hair, so she could not see her appearance.


    When did this woman appear? Yin Xun clearly remembered that the first thing she did when she entered was to check the room. She was sure that there was no one above her head just now. Could it be a staff member? But the woman in front of her was as thin as a piece of paper. No matter how she looked at it, she did not look like a real person.


    Fang Yao saw it too. He narrowed his eyes, trying to see what was going on.


    The woman in red was very close to Yin Xun. It seemed that she only needed to raise her hand to touch her. With that in mind, she raised her hand to feel the woman.


    Unexpectedly, her hand did not touch anything. It clearly looked like she was touching her. Before Yin Xun could think about it more deeply, the woman¡¯s figure gradually faded and slowly disappeared from their sight.


    At the same time, there was a loud bang from above. Something seemed to have fallen from the ceiling. Because it was too dark, Yin Xun did not see it coming. She panicked for a moment. Then, Fang Yao suddenly pounced on her. He did not have time to push her away from the falling object and could only shield her with his body.


    All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Yin Xun was protected in Fang Yao¡¯s arms and she felt his body become heavier. Then, Fang Yao let out a muffled groan and let go of her hand.


    ¡°Fang Yao, what¡¯s wrong? What happened?¡± The room was so dark that Yin Xun could not see anything. She could only feel Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao¡¯s voice was a little weak. ¡°It¡¯s nothing serious. Something fell from the ceiling and hit my shoulder. I can¡¯t move my arm now.¡±


    Yin Xun immediately realized that there was an accident. He quickly took out his walkie-talkie and told the staff about the situation.


    ¡°How¡¯s your shoulder now? Don¡¯t move. Wait for the staff to come.¡± Yin Xun did not know how bad Fang Yao¡¯s injury was and did not dare to touch him casually. She was afraid that it would aggravate his injury, so she only watched over him from the side.


    It was a big deal that customers were injured. Very soon, the lights in the haunted house were turned on. Then, the staff who were dressed as ghosts in every room rushed over.


    Fang Yao was sent to the emergency room. Yin Xun did not expect the Haunted House to be so well-equipped. There was even an emergency room. There was a saying that every addition you saw was there because of what had happened before.


    It seemed that many people had been injured in the Haunted House in the past. Even the emergency room was open.


    Fang Yao was hit by a wooden board from the ceiling and his shoulder was slightly fractured.


    This problem was serious. The person in charge of the Haunted House apologized to Fang Yao in fear and said that he would definitely compensate them.


    ¡°How are you feeling?¡± Yin Xun asked worriedly with a frown. Fang Yao had been injured because he tried to save her. Moreover, she was the one who had insisted on dragging Fang Yao to the Haunted House for an event. If anything happened to him, she would be in big trouble.


    The doctor had already bandaged Fang Yao¡¯s wound. Seeing that Yin Xun was worried, a smile appeared on his pale face. He comforted her, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m fine.¡±


    ¡®We check the haunted house every day. We found that the wooden boards were fine this morning. We don¡¯t know why it suddenly fell off. However, this is our responsibility. We will cooperate with you to compensate. What do you want?¡± The person in charge asked with a smile.


    ¡°I¡¯ll do an injury evaluation when I get back. When the results are out, we¡¯ll follow the normal procedure.¡± Fang Yao did not take this matter to heart and answered calmly.


    When both parties reached an agreement, Yin Xun helped Fang Yao out of the Haunted House.


    Looking at Fang Yao¡¯s bandaged shoulder, Yin Xun blamed herself. ¡®This was caused by me. I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll have to delay a lot of things now. But don¡¯t worry, as long as it¡¯s something I can do, I¡¯ll do my best to help you and minimize your losses! As for our investment contract, I¡¯ll give you 10% of my shares. From today onward, until your injuries recover, I¡¯ll take care of you!¡¯


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun in surprise. He did not expect Yin Xun to blame herself so much.


    Originally, he wanted to comfort Yin Xun, but when he heard Yin Xun say that she would take care of him personally, he felt a little tempted. Suddenly, he decided not to say his original thoughts.


    Fang Yao lowered his head and looked at Yin Xun with a happy look in his eyes. However, Yin Xun¡¯s head was also lowered at this moment, so she did not notice Fang Yao¡¯s expression.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yao agreed after watching for a while.


    This did not seem to be a bad deal for him.


    ¡°Fang Yao, you saved my life. I will always remember it,¡± Yin Xun promised softly..

    However, because her voice was too soft, Fang Yao did not hear her clearly. When he opened his mouth to ask about it, Yin Xun fell silent and did not continue speaking.


    They walked to the door. It was still raining outside, but it was much lighter than before. There was no more hail, at least.


    From here, they could see where the car accident had happened. The police had already taken care of it, and the road was now clear. Yin Xun and Fang Yao walked toward the parking lot. They had come here to relax but did not expect such a thing to happen.


    Yin Xun felt very uncomfortable, so she did not say much and was in low spirits.


    Before getting into the car, Fang Yao suddenly called out, ¡®Yin Xun.¡±


    ¡°Huh? What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Xun raised her head and looked into Fang Yao¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°A minor shoulder injury was the price to save the life of someone who is very important to you. Do you think this is a bad deal?¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Yin Xun lowered her eyes and did not answer.


    When Fang Yao said that she was very important to him, it meant that he really treated her as a close friend. She was touched. Yin Xun swore to repay Fang Yao in the future.


    After the two of them got into the car, the driver was shocked to see Fang Yao¡¯s condition. He asked anxiously, ¡°Young Master, what happened to your shoulder?¡±


    He thought that their young master and Yin Xun were going to watch a movie, but had they ended up getting into a fight? If he had known this, he would have followed them. Now, looking at the situation, he was going to be scolded to death by the butler.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. Let¡¯s leave.¡± Fang Yao did not intend to explain. If he said too much now, it would only make Yin Xun feel even more guilty.


    Along the way, Yin Xun did not say much. Other than feeling guilty toward Fang Yao, there was another question that puzzled her.


    Was the woman she saw at the haunted house a member of the staff or was it something actually unholy?


    The person in charge of the haunted house had also claimed that they just checked the various rooms this morning. The wooden boards were attached firmly to the ceiling. Something must have happened to cause it to fall.


    The person in charge said that he would notify her after the investigation. She would know what happened then.


    She was not particularly superstitious. However, even a transmigrating incident happened to her, after all. Who knew if other supernatural events would happen?


    If the original author had some bad taste and added their weird imagination to the original work, would she be in even more danger?


    If she had known earlier, she would have read more of the novel at that time. She only knew the beginning and the end and did not know much about what happened in the middle. This was rather troublesome.


    This feeling made her very uncomfortable. She felt that she had become a character in a book. She also did not have the carefree feeling of knowing everything like the protagonist of other novels.


    After returning to the villa, the butler was shocked to see Fang Yao¡¯s condition.


    He originally wanted to ask what was going on, but when he received Fang Yao¡¯s quelling gaze, he quickly turned to Yin Xun. Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s depressed expression, he immediately understood that this matter had something to do with Yin Xun. That was why Fang Yao told him not to pry.


    The butler told Fang Yao and Yin Xun to have a good rest while he went to prepare dinner.


    Fang Yao¡¯s injury happened to be on his right shoulder and he could not even hold his chopsticks. When Yin Xun saw this, she took the initiative to help him pick up some food. She poured water and asked him if it hurt. She was very considerate.


    The butler, who was standing at the side, was very pleased with the interaction between the two of them. It seemed that the young master still had a chance.


    However, there was one thing that he really wanted to complain about. If Fang Yao actually did not want Yin Xun¡¯s help, he could have asked him instead. The young master was clearly enjoying Yin Xun¡¯s closeness.


    After dinner, Yin Xun took the rare initiative to train without Fang Yao having to urge her. Fang Yao sat beside her and watched her train, giving her guidance from time to time.


    After the training, it was already very late. Yin Xun bid farewell to Fang Yao and returned to her house. Before she left, she repeatedly reminded Fang Yao to take note of things and emphasized that if he needed help, he should look for her.


    When Fang Yao saw how concerned Yin Xun was about him, he smiled and agreed.


    Because his shoulder was injured, his entire arm could not be used. Over the next few days, Fang Yao could only stay at home to recuperate. Even if he wanted to go out, his family doctor, Pang Jing, would not let him leave and move around. With Yin Xun¡¯s instructions, the doctor had the courage to give Fang Yao orders.


    As for Yin Xun, she would return immediately after finishing her work at the company each day. She was worried about Fang Yao¡¯s injury and did not know when he would recover.


    There were a lot of important things waiting for her to deal with in the company. The only good news was that the social media posters that Mi Jin had hired were showing results.


    ¡°This is the popularity data of the post. Take a look.¡± Mi Jin handed the printed information to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun examined. The situation was indeed within her expectations..

 Chapter 240 - Chapter 240: Not A Bad Result

    Chapter 240: Not A Bad Result


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    In fact, Mi Jin did not invest too much money in hiring these post writers. He only found a few experienced users to analyze the Blue Fox company. At the same time, he asked them to compare it with Xintao. It was always the same thing. The price of the Blue Fox website before the discount was much higher than Xintao.


    Everyone was sensitive to money. Of course, they participated in the event to save money. Meanwhile, Blue Fox did not contribute anything and even earned a wave of popularity. In the end, their users spent the same amount of money as usual. What was the point of participating in the event?


    Blue Fox had a lot of users, to begin with. After this matter was exposed, the popularity quickly went into turmoil. Coupled with Yin Xun adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes, several topics like ¡®Blue Fox Fraud¡¯ and ¡®Blue Fox Scheming¡¯ instantly rushed to the top of the trending searches. It did not take long for the issue to explode.


    Everyone was quite angry, especially when they compared it to Xintao. They had a real discount. If they had known earlier, they would have gone to Xintao.


    That way, they could have saved a lot of money.


    Blue Fox¡¯s users were scolding and complaining, while Xintao¡¯s users were watching the show and showing off how they had gained the better deal.


    With such a comparison, Blue Fox¡¯s users became even angrier.


    ¡®We only invested a little money to promote this matter. Because it¡¯s a very popular topic, many low-level users are also riding on the bandwagon. The higher the readership, the faster their account level will grow. There¡¯s no need for us to do anything at all. This subject has already exploded.¡±


    Mi Jin smiled and said, ¡°Not only that, but those buyers are now clamoring for a refund. Many users are now coming to register on our website. It¡¯s just that our website has a fatal flaw¡­¡±


    Yin Xun immediately understood what Mi Jin meant and said, ¡®Only Zhenku flagship phones can be used, right?¡±


    Mi Jin nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Although buyers want to take advantage of the current situation, many people will give up if they need to buy a new phone. This is also the reason why Si Fan didn¡¯t react when he saw so many users making a fuss. He knows that not all users will buy a phone to register for Xintao. This is the tragedy of a monopoly. Although the buyer knows that they have been scammed, there¡¯s nothing they can do.¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. We¡¯re only trying it on Zhenku for now to see the effect. We¡¯ll have to trouble you to continue testing the app during this period. You have to ensure that the software bugs are minimized before we can go online with other phones. As long as the results on Zhenku are good, there will be more partners in the future.¡± Yin Xun was very confident in Xintao¡¯s future development.


    As long as she made a name for herself now, there was no need to worry about not having a business partner.


    ¡°Is there any movement on Si Fan¡¯s side?¡± Thinking of this, Yin Xun felt that she had to keep an eye on Si Fan to prevent him from playing dirty tricks.


    ¡°Not yet. I don¡¯t think he¡¯s had time to do any PR yet.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I didn¡¯t plan to use this incident to destroy Blue Fox. As long as there¡¯s a problem with Blue Fox¡¯s reputation, the first step will be successful,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Mi Jin frowned and asked in confusion, ¡°You mean¡­¡±


    ¡°The biggest gain from this wave is that we¡¯ve achieved a better publicity effect than advertising. At the same time, weVe belittled Blue Fox. This is something that the users have personally shared,¡± Yin Xun said in satisfaction.


    ¡°So where do we go from here?¡± Mi Jin asked.


    Yin Xun bent a finger and knocked on the table. Then, she slowly said, ¡®We wait and see what Si Fan¡¯s side will do. We¡¯ll think of a plan next. That said, you still have to continue to keep an eye on Si Fan. Let me know immediately if there¡¯s any movement.¡±


    Yin Xun was always one to take revenge. When dealing with people like Si Fan, she would not show mercy. It was just that now was not the time yet. Xintao was not mature enough.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Mi Jin agreed. Seeing that Yin Xun had nothing else to add, he returned to his office to continue testing the Xintao app.


    Si Fan knew from the beginning that this kind of activity was not a good thing, but he had no choice. Xintao¡¯s surge of activity was so intense. If he did not follow, the users would be snatched away by Xintao.


    Even if Xintao had the restriction of being on a specific mobile phone brands, as long as they became famous, the number of users would increase in the future if they started working with other brands.


    He knew that the only way to deal with Xintao now was to burn money. However, he had just started a project a while ago and invested a large sum of money. Now, he did not have any money to invest in Blue Fox.


    He went to look for a few rich second-generation heirs who had a good relationship with him in the past, but they only offered him good intentions but no money. Their words were sweeter than anyone else¡¯s, but no matter how he persuaded them, they would not invest funds for him..

 Chapter 241 - Chapter 241: Schemed Against

    Chapter 241: Schemed Against

    Seriously, what kind of person did they take him for?! Someone who could be summoned as they pleased? He had always been the one to toy with his women. He did not expect the roles to be reversed.


    He made a few calls, but no one wanted to help him. Si Fan¡¯s face darkened after hanging up. He had nowhere to vent the anger in his heart. He looked down and saw a glass of water on the table. He picked it up and threw it at the wall.


    In order to get an investment, he made many attempts to look for Fang Yao, but Fang Yao refused to see him.


    He went to look for Si Xia, but Si Xia¡¯s money was managed by several shareholders in the company. Si Xia could not use it until she was 30 years old. He went to look for the women who used to idolize him, but they told him that they could only give their feelings and had no money on them.


    They could only give feelings but had no money. Did they take him for a fool?


    ¡°Director Si! ¡±


    Cheng She¡¯s panicked voice came from the door. Si Fan, who was already troubled, became even angrier when he heard Cheng She¡¯s shout. He suddenly turned his head and stared fiercely at Cheng She.


    ¡°That¡­ that user¡­¡± Before Cheng She came here, he had already expected Si Fan to be angry. However, he did not expect Si Fan to already look so irritable before he even said anything.


    He had no doubt that if he told Si Fan about that matter right now, Si Fan would throw something at him.


    Seeing that Cheng She had been staring at him and was stuttering for a long time without being able to say anything, a wave of anger rose from the bottom of his heart. Si Fan said impatiently, ¡°What exactly is it? If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don¡¯t waste my time!¡±


    Cheng She said nervously, ¡°President Si, there are many posts criticizing our company on the Internet now. Someone is adding fuel to the fire. Now that our users know that they have been cheated, they are all applying for a refund. Those who haven¡¯t applied for a refund are all asking the merchants to give them a receipt¡­¡±


    Actually, someone had already discovered this problem at the beginning of the event. However, not many people knew about it at that time. In addition, they had spent money to delete those negative posts, so the matter did not blow up.


    Now that the matter had suddenly blown up, it was obvious that it had something to do with Xintao.


    It was normal for a website to have negative reviews. As long as it was suppressed and did not become a big deal, it would be fine. Si Fan originally wanted to pretend not to see it, but he did not expect things to take such a turn. There were reports and requests for refunds. They could not hide it even if they wanted to.


    After listening to Cheng She, Si Fan frowned and spat, ¡°Spend money to get the website to delete the posts. Do you still have to ask me about such a simple matter?! What did I take you in for? Are you freeloaders?!¡±


    ¡°President Si, it¡¯s not that we don¡¯t want to do this. We¡¯ve already spent money to delete the posts before reporting this to you. However, because there¡¯s someone helping us behind the scenes, we couldn¡¯t delete it completely.¡± Si Fan sounded a little aggrieved.


    ¡°Is Xintao behind this?¡± Si Fan asked.


    Cheng She nodded. ¡°It seems so, and¡­¡±


    Si Fan stared at Cheng She. Seeing his conflicted expression, he asked impatiently, ¡°Do you have anything else to say? I¡¯ll give you one last chance. Finish your words quickly, or get lost.¡±


    Under Si Fan¡¯s questioning, Cheng She finally divulged his true motive for coming. ¡°As this incident has caused a huge ruckus, many of our platform¡¯s users have been lost. The merchants have also caused a ruckus because of frequent complaints and refund requests from their customers. They said that they want to withdraw from this event. If they are not allowed to withdraw, they would rather pay the breach of contract fees and take their shops to Xintao. They also said that you have seriously harmed their interests. They are not afraid even if they go to court¡­¡±


    Cheng She spoke so quickly that he did not even catch his breath before he finished speaking. In any case, he would suffer sooner or later. He might as well get it over quickly.


    Si Fan¡¯s expression became worse and worse until Cheng She finished speaking. His expression was so dark that water could almost drip from it.


    ¡°This bunch of ungrateful scum. They forgot who gave them the chance to develop!¡± Si Fan casually picked up the things on the table and threw them on the ground. Cheng She was already prepared. When he saw this, he took a few steps back, afraid that he would get hit.


    Si Fan did not expect that a small event would cause Blue Fox to face such a threat. He had been too soft on them.


    If it was any other time, he would let them do whatever they wanted. In any case, he owned the only shopping platform on the Internet. He did not have to care if these people caused a ruckus. In the end, they still had to rely on him.


    Now, however, Xintao had suddenly appeared and was even going against him.


    This gave the merchants and users a second choice. Who would be willing to continue suffering? They would definitely go to Xintao. Although Xintao was only available to Zhenku phones now, he knew that Yin Xun was only in the testing stage. Once the preliminary results were good, she would definitely continue to expand to other mobile phone companies..

 Chapter 242 - Chapter 242: Breakthrough

    Who would reject a chance to make money? Those mobile phone companies only cared about money. When the time came, this would seriously threaten Blue Fox¡¯s status.


    He knew how to resolve this crisis¡ªcompete with Yin Xun in burning money¡ª but he was worried about this matter now. He wanted to spend money, but where did the money come from?


    Those friends of his would come to him when they had nothing to do. When he needed money, however, they would run away.


    ¡®What should we do?¡± Cheng She asked softly when he saw that Si Fan was distracted.


    The air seemed to be getting thin here. He wanted to leave quickly. Who knew what kind of tantrum Si Fan would throw later?


    Si Fan rolled his eyes at him impatiently and said angrily, ¡°How would I know? Inform the people below to start a meeting immediately!¡±


    Due to the seriousness of the situation, all the leaders of the various departments of the company came to the meeting to discuss what to do next.


    Someone suggested, ¡°Let¡¯s contact those bloggers with high-level fans and get them to delete the post. At the same time, how about asking them to put in a few good words? They have a lot of fans and will definitely listen to them brainlessly.¡±


    Si Fan immediately rejected this idea. ¡°Do you think the clients are fools? They already know about the problem this time. Don¡¯t you think they can calculate it themselves?¡±


    At the side, Cheng She stole a glance at Si Fan and complained internally, ¡®You¡¯re acting as though you understand very well now. Did you think so at the beginning?¡¯


    However, even if he had some courage, he would not dare to say such words directly. He could only think about it himself.


    Someone else suggested, ¡°Since the entire Internet is filled with posts about this matter, it means that someone is definitely behind this. If I¡¯m not wrong, it¡¯s Xintao. Since they¡¯re so heartless, they can¡¯t blame us for responding in kind. As a shopping platform, be it in terms of logistics, commodity problems, or after-sales, they¡¯re bound to have some problems too.¡±


    ¡°We just need to collect a bit more information and find some fake reviewers to spread it. Then, Xintao will be in the same situation as us. Since both sides have problems, we don¡¯t have to worry about the users running away. After all, we have the advantage over Xintao.¡±


    ¡°We¡¯ve already done this before, but¡­¡± Si Fan¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up. He stared at the person who had just made the suggestion and asked, ¡®What did you just say? What is the issue?¡±


    That person thought that he had said something wrong and was shocked. He suddenly forgot what he wanted to say.


    This person was a team leader in the department of malls. Usually, he did not have many chances to see Si Fan, let alone enter the high-level meeting room to have a meeting with the bods. This was a good time to perform, so he mustered his courage and spoke his mind.


    Si Fan was staring at him with a fierce expression and his powerful aura made him very uncomfortable. He thought that he had said something wrong in front of Si Fan, so he was so frightened that he did not know what to do next.


    When Si Fan saw that he was dawdling and not saying anything, his anger rose again. Now that the situation was urgent, how could this guy take his time?


    Just as he was about to flare up, Cheng She sighed. He could tell that the employee was nervous. As expected, only he could be calm in the presence of this King of Hell.


    He helped the employee out and said, ¡°He just said that we can find a breakthrough from the aspects of logistics, commodity problems, and after-sales businesses.¡±


    No one understood Si Fan better than Cheng She. He immediately knew what Si Fan wanted to hear.


    Si Fan took a deep breath and said, ¡°Let¡¯s start with this. We¡¯ll start with logistics. ¡®


    Since he had already determined the direction, the next step would be easy.


    He asked Cheng She to contact the delivery companies and tell them not to cooperate with Xintao. If they cooperated with Xintao, they would be going against Si Fan. They could think about the consequences themselves.


    As for the two delivery companies that had already cooperated with Xintao, they had just recently developed. The reason Si Fan refused to cooperate with them back then was that they were not mature enough.


    Those two companies were easy to deal with. The bigger delivery companies could just work together to suppress them. Ideally, those two delivery companies would not be able to last long. Delivery was the lifeline of the shopping platform. Once the chain of delivery collapsed, the shopping platform would basically be crippled.


    As for the buyers and merchants, Si Fan also had a solution. He would not have to burn money..

    He asked the PR department to issue an apology, but the content was not really an apology. Instead, it was expressing regret that the event had not been made clear.


    The apology letter said that this event was a warm -up event for the mobile app. All users who participated in the event now would be given different degrees of compensation and preferential treatment according to the spending during this period of time when the mobile app was released. Furthermore, delivery during the event would be free.


    As for the problem this time, they apologized. It was their first time organizing such a large-scale event and they were inexperienced, which led to so many problems. They would definitely learn from their experience and actively correct it. They would not let down the trust of the users. Please continue to trust them and they would not disappoint users in the future.


    After everything was prepared, the letter was immediately sent out.


    At the same time, Si Fan spent a large sum of money to remove the company¡¯s negative trending topics. At the same time, he bought many positive trending


    Some users believed Blue Fox¡¯s explanation. They felt that a big company like Blue Fox would definitely do what they said. Otherwise, it would destroy their reputation.


    However, some users felt that this method was unreliable. How could such a big company not understand this logic? It was obvious that they were deliberately taking advantage of the users. Seeing that the matter had blown up, they had rushed to correct it, but it had not been resolved completely. If they were truly sincere, they should immediately compensate the users.


    Now, Blue Fox¡¯s reputation was polarized. A portion of users chose to believe them and no longer reported them. The others felt that Blue Fox would not change. There were still other traps waiting for others to step on. These users still applied for a refund.


    Since Blue Fox had announced that they would no longer deceive the consumers, the merchants participating in the event stopped making a fuss. Things seemed to be developing in a good direction.


    After solving a big problem, Si Fan¡¯s originally irritable mood finally calmed down a little. He spoke to his employees much more gently.


    However, the matter was not over yet. There was another serious problem waiting for Si Fan to solve.


    Since he had promised the users that he would compensate them, he had to do it, even if it was just a small compensation. If he did not do anything, then Blue Fox¡¯s reputation would be completely ruined.


    If he wanted to compensate them, he would have to burn money.


    Coincidentally, what he lacked the most now was funds. He had reached out to everyone he could, but he still could not get any money. What should he do?


    Si Fan thought about it and took out his phone. He found Yin Mo¡¯s number and dialed it¡­


    When Blue Fox¡¯s announcement came out, Mi Jin immediately informed Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun was not too surprised by this. If Si Fan did not do anything, there would be no hope for Blue Fox. After all, Si Fan was the male protagonist of the original novel. Since he could make Blue Fox so big, he must have some courage.


    However, the fact that Si Fan had started burning money meant that he had fallen into her plan. The war between the two of them had officially begun at this moment.


    In the afternoon, Yin Xun received a call from Liu Ying.


    Before she picked up the call, Yin Xun already knew what was going on. There was hope for a collaboration, but she did not expect Liu Ying to have thought about it over so many days.


    ¡°Yin Xun, I¡¯ll invest in that project of yours!¡± Liu Ying gritted her teeth and spoke word by word.


    It felt like she was being forced to do this. Her tone was filled with indignation.


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. She felt that something was wrong with Liu Ying. What was going on?


    ¡°Alright, when do we sign the contract?¡± Although she was puzzled, since Liu Ying had already agreed to cooperate, she had to quickly confirm it. She had to rein in the investor first before discussing anything else.


    Liu Ying asked, ¡°Are you free tomorrow?¡¯


    ¡°Yes. Come and find me anytime tomorrow. I¡¯ll be waiting for you at the office.¡±


    After the two of them confirmed the time, Yin Xun asked Liu Ying, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? I feel that something is wrong with your tone. ¡®


    Her voice was a little congested, as though she had just cried.


    Liu Ying sighed and said, ¡°I¡¯ll tell you tomorrow when we meet. It¡¯s hard to explain over the phone.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Yin Xun said.


    After hanging up, Yin Xun looked at the time. It was almost time to get off work. She used the remaining time to check her proposal again. After confirming that there were no problems, she left the company.


    With Mi Jin keeping an eye on Blue Fox, she did not have to worry too much. She just needed to make a decision on some important matters. As for the short video site and delivery issues, she needed to be fully in charge of them.


    This was all too tiring. Yin Xun wondered if she should find two more people to take charge. However, there were very few professionals like Mi Jin who happened to have a grudge against Si Fan. She had to screen them carefully.


    The company had just begun to develop and was immature in all aspects. Nothing could be allowed to go wrong.


    Halfway through the journey, Yin Xun suddenly turned a corner and went to the flower and bird market..

 Chapter 244 - Chapter 244: Sympathy For Fang Yao

    Chapter 244: Sympathy For Fang Yao


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao had been injured trying to save her. On top of that, she still needed Fang Yao¡¯s help with something. If she did not bring some gifts, she would be too insensible.


    Previously, Fang Yao said that there were too many flowers at home. She recalled what she had given him in the past. Monthly roses, mint, cactus, peony, spider plants, and so on. There were too many to count. There were indeed a lot of plants, and they all had their own fragrances. If the flowers bloomed together, the scent would be too mixed.


    She did not know anything about flowers, nor did she know when each type would bloom. Back then, Fang Yao had commented that he liked flowers, so she could only give him a different type each time. This way, at least one of them would be liked by Fang Yao.


    Now that Fang Yao said that he had too many flowers, she decided to choose some other green plants. She felt succulent ivy plants that did not bloom were also very beautiful. They could also purify the air. It was killing two birds with one stone.


    In order to match the flowers in Fang Yao¡¯s room, Yin Xun picked out a lot of them and asked the shop owner to wrap them up. After that, she placed them in the car. Before she left, she glanced at something and thought that Fang Yao would definitely like it.


    She went straight to Fang Yao¡¯s house with a carefully selected gift. In order to make it easier to move the plants, she drove the car directly into Fang Yao¡¯s courtyard.


    The butler was watering the flowers in the courtyard. There was no room left in the house. Many of the flowers had been moved to the courtyard. In addition, there were many flowers in the courtyard, to begin with. Fang Yao did not have the energy to take care of so many flowers, so the butler took care of the ones outside.


    He recognized Yin Xun¡¯s car. When he saw Yin Xun drive the car directly in front of him, the butler was shocked. What was going on? Yin Xun had never done this before.


    After seeing Yin Xun get out of the car, the butler smiled and said, ¡°Miss Yin, why did you suddenly think of driving over today?¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°1 brought too many things and it¡¯s inconvenient to carry them, so I thought I might as well drive the car here directly. That would make things easier.¡±


    As she spoke, Yin Xun opened the trunk. Boxes of all sizes were already piled up inside. The butler looked at the packaging and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He suddenly had a bad feeling. These boxes were too familiar.


    ¡®Why are you so courteous with our young master? You don¡¯t have to bring gifts. We¡¯re neighbors, so we don¡¯t have to be so particular.¡± The butler called the servants over to help carry the things.


    Yin Xun thought that the butler was just being polite to her. She waved her hand and said casually, ¡°Fang Yao got injured trying to save me. He¡¯s always helping me, and I come over every day to freeload. It¡¯s my responsibility to prepare a little gift. It¡¯s not anything expensive, and Fang Yao likes flowers, so it¡¯s just nice.¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin, you should not place any burden in your heart. Our Young Master told me everything that happened that day. His injuries are not serious and he will recover after recuperating for a while. But you only have one life. If he does not save you, wouldn¡¯t he have lost a good friend?¡± The butler heard the guilt in Yin Xun¡¯s words and comforted her.


    ¡°That may be the case, but it¡¯s all because of me. If I didn¡¯t ask to go to the haunted house, he wouldn¡¯t have been injured.¡± Yin Xun was sincere. She had always thought of herself as a bad person who did not have much empathy, but Fang Yao treated her really well. He had helped her a lot and treated her to a meal every day. In the end, he even got injured because of her. No matter how she thought about it, she felt bad.


    Yin Xun added, ¡°He says it¡¯s fine because he treats me as a good friend. Saving me is a favor, but not his duty. I can¡¯t do anything much, but if I can do a small thing to repay him, I must do it.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, the butler felt both gratified and heartbroken. He was gratified that Yin Xun¡¯s character was good. She knew how to repay one¡¯s kindness. If this girl really became the young mistress of the Fang family, it would be a blessing. On the other hand, he was heartbroken that in Yin Xun¡¯s heart, Fang Yao was only a good friend. Yin Xun could not see Fang Yao¡¯s feelings for her at all.


    Fang Yao¡¯s future was going to be long and arduous. The butler could not help but worry for Fang Yao. What if such a good girl was snatched away by someone else one day?


    While Yin Xun spoke, Fang Yao happened to come out. The butler looked at him sympathetically. It was not easy for their young master.


    ¡°Miss Yin, you have a good relationship with our Young Master. If only our Young Master¡¯s future wife could be like you,¡± the butler said with a smile.


    ¡°Oh, don¡¯t worry about that. Don¡¯t you know Fang Yao? His future girlfriend will definitely be an outstanding person.¡± Yin Xun comforted him sincerely.


    The butler,

 Chapter 245 - Chapter 245: A Gift of Revenge

    Chapter 245: A Gift of Revenge


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Forget it. He had already said so much, but Yin Xun still did not understand. It seemed that Yin Xun did not feel that way at all. She really treated Young Master as a brother.


    The butler took a deep look at Fang Yao and then went to instruct the servants on how to place the plants.


    ¡°Fang Yao, I have something to discuss with you.¡± After the butler left, Yin Xun walked up to Fang Yao.


    ¡°Dinner is ready. Let¡¯s talk after eating.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s expression was calm.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Yin Xun nodded in agreement and walked into the house with Fang Yao.


    However, just as she reached the door, Yin Xun clapped a hand on her head.


    ¡°Oh right, I almost forgot about it.¡± Then, she turned around and ran to the car. She opened the door and took out a super large box.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun in confusion; he suspected that it was a plant agam.


    Yin Xun placed the box in front of Fang Yao and said, ¡®Moving your hands must be difficult now, so I¡¯ll open it for you.¡±


    At this moment, the butler had just finished instructing the servants on how to arrange the plants in the house. He came out to see if there was anything else that needed help with. As soon as he came out, he saw Yin Xun placing a large box in front of Fang Yao.


    His only thought was that it was a plant again, so he asked, ¡°Miss Yin, what kind of green plant is this? You can wait for me to put it in the house.¡±


    ¡°This is not a plant. It¡¯s a surprise for Fang Yao.¡± Yin Xun smiled and opened the box. A green parrot appeared in front of them.


    When Fang Yao saw this, his lips twitched. He looked at Yin Xun with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.


    The butler was surprised as he asked, ¡°Miss Yin, is this the surprise gift you wanted to give Young Master?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. I¡¯d gone through many shops before I took a fancy to this pure green parrot. It¡¯s a pity that it can¡¯t speak. At least it¡¯s beautiful enough.¡±


    The butler smiled awkwardly. ¡°Haha, it¡¯s quite good. It¡¯s quite good-looking indeed.¡±


    He only felt that Yin Xun and Fang Yao were more and more compatible. One gave a girl a tortoise, and the other gave a boy a green parrot. ¡®I¡¯sk tsk, these two people¡¯s brain circuits were quite unique. Perhaps this was what people call soul resonance?


    It seemed that the possibility of the two of them getting together in the future was high.


    Fang Yao smiled stiffly. ¡°Not bad, I like it very much¡­¡±


    ¡®A green parrot? Is Yin Xun implying something? Or is she taking revenge on me because I gave her a turtle last time?


    When Yin Xun heard that Fang Yao liked it, she smiled cheerfully. As long as he was happy with it, it was fine. It seemed that she had discovered another preference of Fang Yao¡¯s. In the future, she could give him gifts in different ways.


    After dinner, Yin Xun finally got down to business.


    She took out the proposal and handed it to Fang Yao. ¡°This is Xintao¡¯s next development plan. Take a look and see if there are any problems or areas that need improvement.¡±


    Fang Yao took the proposal and skimmed through it. He wanted to see the direction of the next exhibition. When he saw the plan, he asked in surprise, ¡°Are you planning to develop in the express delivery industry next?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun nodded. ¡°For a shopping platform, express delivery is essentially half its lifeline. Although there are several express companies on the market now and they¡¯re very mature, I¡¯ve investigated them and found that these express companies are very close to Blue Fox. They¡¯re more inclined to work with Blue Fox.


    ¡°Meanwhile, the two express delivery companies that are cooperating with us have only just started. They have been oppressed by other delivery companies from the beginning, making it hard for them to improve. That¡¯s why they did not cooperate with Blue Fox.


    ¡°Even if I can support them financially now, the outcome is the same. The best way to really develop these two delivery companies is to buy them directly.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. Acquiring a delivery company is actually much easier than starting your own delivery service. It¡¯s safer and invests less money.¡±


    Yin Xun sat next to Fang Yao and gestured for him to read the middle part of the proposal. ¡°That¡¯s right, but there¡¯s something very important. Once I buy these two, it¡¯s equivalent to putting up a Xintao sign on them. I think that the biggest problem with shopping platforms is the speed of delivery. If you want to be fast, the cost will definitely increase. If the cost is low, the delivery will be very slow.


    ¡°Some customers are in a hurry to buy things. They want their things to arrive in half a day or the next day. For these cases, we will need to improve on delivery speed. However, ordinary customers aren¡¯t in such a rush. For a normal delivery speed, it would be inappropriate to charge a high delivery fee. Therefore, I plan to use two delivery modes..¡±

 Chapter 246 - Chapter 246: Difficulty In Investment

    Chapter 246: Difficulty In Investment


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao looked in the direction Yin Xun was pointing at. Written there were plans for two types of express delivery.


    Yin Xun wanted both methods to be operational. For a delivery schedule of three to five days, the packages would not be delivered to the door. Instead, they would be concentrated at delivery points at the entrances of each district.


    Although the speed was slower and it was a little troublesome to collect the packages, the advantage was that the price would be low. Some vendors that had high profits could even waive the delivery fee.


    The express delivery that Yin Xun developed would belong to Xintao. Its name was Xintao Express. According to the distance, the deliveries could even arrive on the same day or the next day. Moreover, it would be delivered to the doorstep of the purchaser. If they wanted to return the goods, they could also do that free of charge.


    This was still not the most convenient thing¡ªthe users could even choose when to make the delivery. With that, those who were at work or had something to do during a particular day would not have to worry; they could specifically choose the time they were at home.


    However, the delivery fee had to be borne by the user and was more expensive. It was convenient for those who were anxious to receive the items quickly.


    Users could choose between the two delivery modes.


    ¡°This is indeed a good and innovative operating model.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s ideas had never disappointed him. She came up with all kinds of innovations. It was a shame that she could not be a little more sensitive in relationships.


    Fang Yao sighed. He could only keep these extra words to himself.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Fang Yao frowned slightly. ¡°Everyone does business to make money, and your idea is perfect for users, but it¡¯s not profitable for Xintao.¡±


    ¡°No, no, no.¡± Yin Xun waved a hand. ¡°It¡¯s just making a little less money than before. In the beginning, it might be a negative profit, but it¡¯ll be fine as long as I get on the right track.¡±


    Fang Yao said, ¡°For capitalists, making less money is equal to not making money at all.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°That¡¯s because I¡¯m greedy. I have to look at the long term when it comes to investing. It¡¯s already a decent result as long as I don¡¯t lose money at the beginning. Even if the net profit is only one cent, it¡¯s still profitable. The development of this project will be a good thing. I¡¯m confident that I can pull it off, just like Xintao.


    ¡°So¡­¡± Yin Xun smiled and handed the cup to Fang Yao, indicating for him to drink some water. Then, she said with a smile, ¡°So, you will surely invest in such a good project, right? After all, it¡¯s just another branch of Xintao¡­¡±


    Yin Xun felt embarrassed when she said this. Back then, she had only signed a contract with Fang Yao to cover the initial stage. Technically speaking, express delivery was not included in the contract.


    At that time, she only had one goal, which was to get Xintao off the ground. Now that Xintao had basically stabilized, she began to think about the next project.


    The idea of the project was simple. The difficult part was to get investments. Now that Xintao and Blue Fox were in a ¡°brawling¡± phase, many investors did not dare to make a decision easily.


    Usually, when Yin Xun made a request, Fang Yao would agree instantly, but this time was different.


    The original proposal was flawless. After discussion, the Fang Corporation confirmed that this project could definitely make money, so they invested. Although this new project would not lose money, if they earned too little and invested too much, others might not agree.


    If they could use the same amount of money to invest in a different project that clearly earned more money, it was obvious which one was better.


    ¡°The amount invested in this project is not a small sum. I can¡¯t make the decision alone. I need to hold a shareholders¡¯ meeting to discuss it,¡± Fang Yao said with a frown.


    The company did not belong to him alone. He could not do whatever he wanted. Any decision had to be discussed before it could be implemented.


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll wait for your news. It doesn¡¯t matter even if you don¡¯t agree. You¡¯ve already helped me a lot,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile. She was not angry at all that Fang Yao could not make a decision.


    This was the real business world. The kind of CEO who casually signed a contract worth tens of billions without checking the feasibility of the project only existed in fiction. That kind of CEO could not bring out the maximum potential of their company.


    It was the nature of businessmen to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Yin Xun did not expect to receive Fang Yao¡¯s answer immediately.


    ¡°This proposal is not detailed enough. I need more detailed data to convince the others,¡± Fang Yao said.


    ¡°Alright, I understand. I¡¯ll organize it as soon as possible when I get back.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Actually, before she came here, she had already asked Yin Cheng about the Fang family.


    Although the Fang Family was huge, the relationships within it were also extremely complicated. The ones with the greatest say were naturally Fang Yao¡¯s parents. As for Fang Yao, because he was still young, there were still many people secretly holding him back despite his outstanding abilities..

 Chapter 247 - Chapter 247: A Gift Exchanged With His Life

    Chapter 247: A Gift Exchanged With His Life


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    The bigger a wealthy family was, the deeper the waters would be. That was why Yin Cheng told Yin Xun to stay away from the Fang family. However, seeing that the two of them had already worked together and Fang Yao treated her well, it seemed like they were sincere about working together, so he did not stop them anymore.


    If possible, Yin Xun wanted to meet Fang Yao¡¯s parents more because she had bigger plans for the future and needed more investments.


    Yin Xun sat there in a daze. Fang Yao looked at her helplessly. It seemed like Yin Xun¡¯s mind was filled with work all day. Did she not get tired?


    The two of them finally finished discussing the investment. After resting for a while, Fang Yao looked at the time and reminded Yin Xun, ¡°It¡¯s time to train.¡¯


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Yin Xun had only been properly motivated for two days, and now she was not as keen anymore.


    However, Fang Yao did not plan to let her off. He would only let her go after her daily training was finished.


    Fang Yao sat on the sofa in the gym and stared at Yin Xun, not allowing her to slack off. Only when Yin Xun was so tired that she could not stand did he call it a day.


    Yin Xun rested on the chair for a while to catch her breath. When she regained some strength, she got up and planned to go home.


    She had just walked to the door when Fang Yao suddenly called out to her. After that, the butler walked over with an exquisite-looking paper bag and handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°Miss Yin, this is a gift from our Young Master. You can open it when you get home.¡±


    ¡°Alright, thank you.¡± Yin Xun took the bag and thanked Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao smiled and said to Yin Xun, ¡°I¡¯ve talked to the person in charge of the Haunted House. The ghost we saw that day was actually caused by a malfunction in the projection system. That is also why the board fell.¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned and could not react for a moment.


    ¡°Meaning it¡¯s fake,¡± Fang Yao added.


    She did not expect Fang Yao to still remember that matter. She felt that she did not show any signs of fear, and she was indeed not afraid. She was just a little worried back then, but now she suddenly felt grateful for Fang Yao¡¯s attentiveness.


    ¡°Yes, I understand.¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and smiled. ¡°But I was telling the truth when I said I¡¯m a ghost.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun left with the paper bag.


    Yin Xun hummed softly as she walked. Seeing how well she and Fang Yao were working together, she was even brave enough to say such a thing.


    However, whether Fang Yao would believe her or not did not matter.


    As he watched Yin Xun leave, Fang Yao turned around and looked at the birdcage and the various plants in the living room. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.


    Wonderful. Yin Xun had a new target for gifts.


    He could not help but worry. Would Yin Xun give him birds like crazy after hearing him say he liked the gift?


    Yin Xun was a good person in every way. She was smart and talented, and had no ulterior motives. She was focused on her career. Perhaps this was also the reason why he was attracted to her.


    Thinking of this, Fang Yao was no longer worried about Yin Xun not understanding his feelings. She went all out to do whatever she liked. This was Yin Xun¡¯s strong point. He could not force her to change. If he wanted to win Yin Xun over, he had to work hard to do better and then slowly enter Yin Xun¡¯s heart.


    For this kind of thing, the more anxious one was, the easier it was to make mistakes.


    Yin Xun was curious about what gift Fang Yao had given her. The first thing she did when she got home was to open the bag. She did not even take the time to change her shoes.


    When she saw what was in the bag, her pupils dilated.


    To her great surprise, Fang Yao had given her a furry ghost doll!


    Yin Xun lowered her gaze and thought for a moment. Thinking of something, she took out her phone. She found the person in charge of the Haunted House and called him. Yin Xun was glad that she had asked for the person¡¯s number out of worry for Fang Yao. Now, it came in handy.


    After communicating with the person in charge, Yin Xun soon hung up the phone. An inexplicable feeling spread from her heart. It felt strange¡ªshe could not tell what was going on.


    The expression in her eyes changed. She looked at the ghost doll in her hand and did not move for a long time.


    The manager of the Haunted House told her that they had discussed compensation terms with Fang Yao. If Fang Yao was an ordinary person, they would have been able to quickly suppress this matter. However, ever since they found out that Fang Yao was the young master of the Fang Family, everyone there was terrified.


    If Fang Yao did not want to let them off, they were finished. Hence, they took the initiative to offer extra compensation.


    However, to their surprise, Fang Yao did not ask for any money. He only asked them to give him the ghost doll as compensation. The doll was the Haunted House¡¯s mascot. It was used as a gimmick to attract customers who wanted to complete a challenge. Every year, it would be used for a while, but no one had ever won..

 Chapter 248 - Chapter 248: Why Is Yin MO Here?

    Chapter 248: Why Is Yin MO Here?


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    However, although the production cost of the doll was rather high, compared to Fang Yao¡¯s medical fees, it was a drop in the ocean. When the manager heard that Fang Yao only wanted this as compensation, how could he refuse? He immediately sent someone to deliver it.


    Even when Fang Yao was so badly injured, he still thought about getting her that doll.


    Yin Xun suppressed the strange feeling in her heart. She kept telling herself that Fang Yao was indeed her great friend. This was a lifelong friendship. She was really touched right now.


    Yes, she must have been too touched and felt guilty. That was why it felt so strange.


    Yin Xun swore that she would repay Fang Yao in the future and bring him to earn a lot of money!


    The next morning, Yin Xun arrived at Xintao early.


    Today was the day Liu Ying had agreed to sign the contract with her. This was a big deal, and she could not afford any mistakes. Yin Xun could wait for Liu Ying, but she could not be late herself.


    It was not the appointed time yet. Yin Xun greeted the receptionist and asked them to bring Liu Ying to her office directly when they saw her. There was no need to ask any questions.


    Before Liu Ying arrived, Yin Xun patrolled around the office. Seeing that there were no major problems, she returned to her office with relief. When Liu Ying came over later on, Yin Xun would definitely show her around. After all, they were about to sign a collaboration, so Liu Ying should be familiar with this place.


    In order to reassure Liu Ying, it was also very important to maintain the company¡¯s appearance.


    Just as Yin Xun was finishing up, the appointed time approached.


    Liu Ying took a car to Xintao¡¯s building. Just as she was about to enter, a black car stopped beside her. The car looked very familiar, so she was not in a hurry to walk away. Instead, she stood there and prepared to see who it was. When the car door opened, she was slightly surprised¡ªit was Yin Mo.


    No wonder this car looked so familiar. This was Si Fan¡¯s car.


    Liu Ying was not interested in Yin Mo. After giving her a cold look, she turned around and walked toward the entrance.


    ¡°Hey, Liu Ying, wait for me!¡± Yin MO also spotted Liu Ying and chased after her with a smile. The sound of her high heels clattering on the marble floor was unusually loud.


    Hearing Yin MO calling her, Liu Ying turned around expressionlessly and said, ¡®What¡¯s the matter?¡¯


    Yin MO did not expect Liu Ying to be so cold. She was stunned for a moment before she smiled again and greeted her. ¡°l feel like I haven¡¯t seen you in a long time. Why are you here today? Are you looking for my sister?¡±


    ¡®What does it have to do with you?¡¯ Liu Ying rolled her eyes at Yin Mo, not wanting to say too much.


    Originally, Liu Ying hated Yin MO because of her relationship with Si Fan. Later on, when she saw Si Fan hitting her, the first person Yin MO showed concern for was not herself, but Si Fan! Yin Xun and Yin Mo were biological sisters, but why did they feel so different in terms of intelligence?


    Although Liu Ying still did not like Yin Xun now, there was no doubt that being with Yin Xun was more comfortable than being with Yin Mo.


    After saying those words, Liu Ying turned around and left. To her surprise, Yin MO ran to her side and quickly grab her hand. She asked, ¡°Liu Ying, are you here to look for my sister because of an investment?¡±


    ¡°So what if I am?¡¯ Liu Ying looked at her impatiently and pulled her hand out forcefully.


    ¡°So that¡¯s how it is.¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes lit up. She grabbed Liu Ying¡¯s hand again and said gently, ¡°Fan was right. You have money, but you wouldn¡¯t invest in him. Instead, you¡¯re collaborating with my sister. Why is that? You and Si Fan are so close. Didn¡¯t you say in the past that as long as Si Fan has something he needed to be done, he can look for you?¡±


    ¡°Could it be because of my relationship with Fan?¡± Yin MO suddenly thought of something and said in surprise, ¡°Liu Ying, although Fan loves me, he also treats you as a good friend. This time, he¡¯s in trouble. How can you cooperate with others but not help him.


    Hearing Yin MO going on about Si Fan right next to her ear, the anger in Liu Ying¡¯s heart instantly surged out.


    She brushed Yin Mols hand away and spat, ¡°Others? Yin MO, Yin Xun is your sister! Are you saying that in your heart, your biological sister is not even comparable to some outside man? Do you have a brain? You want to help outsiders deal with your sister! ¡±


    ¡°No, it¡¯s not like that¡­¡± Yin MO was shocked by Liu Ying. She stuttered and explained, ¡°How could I not care for my sister? I¡¯m here today to help her¡­¡±


    ¡°Are you Miss Liu Ying?¡± Before Yin MO could finish speaking, she was suddenly interrupted..

 Chapter 249 - Chapter 249: You Cant Enter

    Chapter 249: You Can¡¯t Enter


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Liu Ying and Yin MO looked in the direction of the voice at the same time and saw a girl in uniform smiling at them not far away.


    ¡°That¡¯s me.¡± Liu Ying ignored Yin MO and replied.


    The girl smiled and said, ¡°President Yin asked us to wait for you to arrive and bring you to meet her directly. Are you very busy right now? Ifyou are, then we will wait for you to settle your business.¡±


    Liu Ying hurriedly said, ¡°I¡¯m fine. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    ¡®You can go in directly. Someone will bring you there.¡± The girl gestured for Liu Ying to enter.


    When Yin MO saw this, she followed Liu Ying and wanted to go in, but she was stopped by the girl. ¡®Miss Yin MO, you cannot go in. If you want to go in, you need to make an appointment. ¡®


    ¡°I¡¯m not here for anything special. I just want to look for my sister.¡± Yin MO walked straight in.


    The girl continued to maintain her smile as she said, ¡°Please don¡¯t make things difficult for me. You cannot go in without an appointment. Otherwise, why don¡¯t you give President Yin a call?¡¯


    Seeing that Yin Mo did not move, the girl continued, ¡°If you¡¯re not going to make a call, please leave. If you insist on making things difficult for me, I¡¯ll ask the security guards to send you away.¡±


    ¡°You!¡± In the face of the girl¡¯s threat, Yin MO got angry, but she did not know what to say.


    This girl was just a staff member without power. Since Yin MO was not allowed to enter, it was useless for her to keep troubling this person.


    Yin Mo stopped insisting and said to the girl, ¡°Since you won¡¯t let me in, I¡¯ll wait outside for my sister to come out. Is that alright?¡±


    The girl smiled. ¡°Please go ahead.¡±


    After that, the smile on her face instantly disappeared. Then, she turned around and walked into the building.


    After the girl went in, Yin MO took out her phone and called Si Fan.


    ¡°Fan, my sister¡¯s employees won¡¯t let me in. What should I do?¡± When Yin MO heard Si Fan¡¯s voice, she could not help but sob softly. She felt extremely aggrieved.


    Yin Xun was her biological sister, yet she let an outsider enter her company but not her. This hurt her heart tremendously.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, it¡¯s the employees who won¡¯t let you in. It¡¯s not your sister saying that. Give your sister a call. As long as you explain your intentions, she will surely let you in.¡± Yin MO did not know what Si Fan was doing at this moment. His breathing was fast; it sounded like he was exhausted.


    ¡°But¡­ my sister doesn¡¯t seem to want to see me at all¡­¡± Thinking of Yin Xun¡¯s cold expression, Yin MO suddenly felt a little afraid.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, how could you think that way? She¡¯s your elder sister. The two of you are related by blood. Even if she was angry at you for a small matter in the past, she should have forgotten about it after all this time. How can an elder sister fight against her younger sister? We¡¯re actually looking for her today for her own good. Think about it. If you don¡¯t look for her now, won¡¯t she be even angrier at you when she loses everything in the future?¡¯ Si Fan¡¯s tone was already starting to sound impatient, but for his goals, he had to endure it.


    ¡°Fan¡­ Hmm¡­¡±


    Just as Yin MO was about to speak, she suddenly heard a woman¡¯s voice from Si Fan¡¯s side. She even called Si Fan¡¯s name rather intimately. That voice¡­


    seemed a little familiar.


    She was stunned for a moment before asking, ¡°Fan, who are you with?¡±


    The other end of the line suddenly fell silent for a few seconds. Then, Si Fan¡¯s voice came through. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. It¡¯s just my client. Let¡¯s do something together later. ¡±


    Yin Mo hesitated for a moment before saying, ¡°Fan, I have a special place in your heart, right?¡±


    He did not expect Yin Mo to be so talkative. Si Fan had just finished venting and felt a little better. At this moment, he was irritated by Yin Mo¡¯s questions.


    However, he still needed Yin Alo¡¯s help, so he could only suppress his anger and comfort her. ¡°Of course, Mo¡¯er. Everything I did was for you. I will never let you down. You are my true love..


    ¡°But¡­¡±


    ¡°No buts. Do you just want my love and don¡¯t want to give me anything in return? Who else treats you as well as I do? I¡¯ve given up so much for you. Isn¡¯t that proof enough? But what about you? Have you done anything for me? Right now, I just want you to talk to your sister, and you¡¯re refusing. Is your love for me even real?¡±


    Yin MO wanted to say something more but was interrupted by Si Fan.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Fan. I was wrong. I shouldn¡¯t have doubted you. Of course, I love you. I¡¯m willing to do anything for you! ¡± Yin MO quickly said.


    Seeing that Yin MO had agreed to go, Si Fan heaved a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Then can I wait for my sister at the entrance of the company? That way, I can see her directly. What if I call her in advance and she refuses to see me?¡± Yin MO suddenly asked when Si Fan was about to hang up..

 Chapter 250 - Chapter 250: Cheating

    Chapter 250: Cheating


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Si Fan tried his best to remain calm. ¡°Okay, be good and listen to me. Just tell me when there¡¯s a result. I¡¯m very busy now.¡±


    This time, Si Fan hung up without giving Yin MO a chance to speak.


    ¡°Fan, what took you? I¡¯ve been waiting for so long.¡± After Si Fan hung up the phone, a naked woman leaned over to him and hugged Si Fan, her face close to


    At this moment, the two of them were sitting on a big bed in the hotel. Their clothes were thrown all over the place, and the bedding was also in a mess.


    ¡°It¡¯s Yin Mo. She¡¯s handling something I need to take care of,¡± Si Fan said in a low voice.


    The woman straddled Si Fan¡¯s lap and rested her head on Si Fan¡¯s shoulder. At the same time, she ran her hand over Si Fan¡¯s entire body. She chuckled softly and said, ¡°You¡¯re on the phone with your girlfriend while sleeping with another woman. Is this considered cheating? How do you feel? Isn¡¯t it exciting?¡¯


    Si Fan grabbed the woman¡¯s hand and frowned slightly. His body, which had just been relieved, reacted again. He wrapped his arms around the woman¡¯s waist and pushed her onto the bed with a little force.


    He reached out to massage the woman¡¯s soft chest and narrowed his eyes. ¡°You said that on purpose just now. Aren¡¯t you afraid that Yin MO will recognize her best friend¡¯s voice?¡¯


    The woman smiled faintly. ¡°So what? She¡¯s so stupid. You can just make up an excuse to fool her. Besides, if you¡¯re not even worried, why should I be?¡¯


    The corners of Si Fan¡¯s mouth curled up slightly. He seemed to be in a much better mood. He lowered his head and kissed the woman on the lips. He stuck out his tongue and attacked relentlessly. Just as the woman was about to lose her breath, he finally let go of her. Then, with a surge of strength, he pushed himself into the woman¡¯s body.


    The woman exclaimed. Si Fan lowered his head and whispered into the woman¡¯s ear, ¡°How is it? Now that you have my body, about the investment¡­¡±


    The woman smiled and hugged Si Fan¡¯s neck. She whispered back into his ear, ¡°If you want me to invest, it depends on whether you can serve me to your heart¡¯s content. If you can make me happy, I¡¯ll help you. However, I have a condition..


    ¡°Tell me.¡± Hearing that the woman had agreed to help him, Si Fan instantly felt relieved. He had finally gotten one.


    However, before he could bask in the feeling, he heard the woman continue slowly, ¡°1 want the Yin family to go bankrupt. Can you do that?¡±


    Si Fan replied as he moved, ¡°Zhou Meng, as far as I know, your Zhou family and the Yin family don¡¯t seem to have much interaction. You ¡®re in the media business, and the Yin family is in the construction business. Your families don¡¯t have any conflict of interest. Why do you want to destroy the Yin family?¡±


    Zhou Meng hugged Si Fan tightly and gave a small smile. ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about this. This is a personal grudge between our Zhou family and the


    Yin family. It has nothing to do with business. I know that your feelings for Yin MO are fake. You just want to use her. The reason I got close to Yin MO and became her good friend is not simply to have an opportunity to destroy the Yin family¡­¡±


    Zhou Meng raised her head and kissed Si Fan¡¯s chin. She continued, ¡°The other reason is that I really like you. As long as you agree, I can give you the funds within a week. When you destroy the Yin family, you have to kick Yin MO out. I¡¯ll be your girlfriend. How about it? This is a good deal for you, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    Si Fan got together with Yin MO because he was interested in the Yin family¡¯s assets. As long as he could get his hands on the money, he did not care about the Yin family. However, Yin Xun¡¯s sudden appearance disrupted all his plans. It was obvious that Yin Xun was targeting him now. If he did not destroy the Yin family, Yin Xun would be his downfall one day.


    Destroying the Yin Family would not only help him, but it would also help him pull in investments to solve the current predicament. Why would he refuse?


    ¡°Okay.¡± Fang Yao thought for a few seconds and agreed.


    Zhou Meng smiled and said, ¡°Oh my, you¡¯re heartless. Yin MO has been with you for so many years, but you agreed to dump her without hesitation. Will you treat me like this in the future?¡±


    ¡°Of course not.¡± The corners of Si Fan¡¯s lips curled up. ¡°You¡¯re incredibly smart and can help me in business. How could I give up on you¡­¡±


    After that, Si Fan did not give Zhou Meng a chance to speak. He sped up his movements, and the room was filled with their passion.


    Yin MO was completely unaware of what was happening there. At this moment, she was sitting nervously in the car, waiting for Yin Xun to come out.


    Yin Xun, meanwhile, was showing Liu Ying around the company enthusiastically.


    After the tour, Yin Xun began to talk to Liu Ying about the investment.


    After explaining everything to Liu Ying, she confirmed with her that they would be working together. After that, she took out the contract and got Liu Ying to sign it.


    Once the signature and thumbprint were in place, Yin Xun finally heaved a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Yin Xun, do you have time now? How about we find a cafe to chat?¡± Liu Ying asked with reddened eyes..

    Chapter 251: I¡¯m Here to Save You


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°Of course. It¡¯s already this late. I¡¯ll treat you to a meal. The caf¨¦ downstairs has released a lot of new products recently. I haven¡¯t tried them yet. Let¡¯s go there to eat. The food should be really good.¡± Yin Xun agreed readily.


    ¡°You¡¯re treating? Since that¡¯s the case, I won¡¯t stand on ceremony.¡± Liu Ying¡¯s eyes lit up.


    She had entrusted all her assets to Yin Xun. In the future, she could no longer buy luxury goods and eat wantonly. Since Yin Xun was treating her to a meal, she had to take advantage.


    After confirming the plans, the two of them went downstairs together. Just as they left the company building, they saw Yin MO get out of the car at the entrance and jog toward them with a smile.


    ¡°Sister, where are you going?¡± Yin MO asked ingratiatingly.


    Yin Xun and Liu Ying looked at each other, their eyes harboring doubt and impatience.


    Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°She arrived at the same time as me, but your employee didn¡¯t let her in. Looks like she¡¯s been waiting outside.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded, then asked Yin MO with a sneer, ¡°Why? Do I have to report to you where I¡¯m going?¡¯


    ¡°No, no¡­¡± Yin Mo did not dare to look directly at Yin Xun. She lowered her eyes and stammered as she explained herself.


    Although Yin Xun was smiling, Yin MO could feel the coldness and alienation in his eyes.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at Yin MO and pulled Liu Ying away.


    Yin MO remembered her promise to Si Fan. If she could not get it done, Si Fan would be angry.


    At the thought of this, Yin MO emboldened herself and said loudly, ¡°Sister, I¡¯m here to save you!¡¯


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡®There are no outsiders here. You don¡¯t have to pretend to be a little white flower in front of me. Our relationship has already been made clear. You and I will mind our own business. We are sisters, but there is no love between us. Liu Ying also knows about our relationship. You don¡¯t have to pretend like this.¡±


    ¡°Sister, I¡¯m not pretending. I really want to save you! YouVe already provoked Fan by fighting with him for the market. You¡¯re in danger now. Fan didn¡¯t pursue the matter because you¡¯re my sister. In order to make things easier for everyone, he asked me to look for you! ¡± Yin MO quickly explained.


    Yin Xun almost laughed when she heard that. She sized Yin MO up for a while and asked interestedly, ¡°Oh, then how are you going to save me?¡¯


    It was true that she had provoked Si Fan. It was not impossible for the male protagonist of the original novel to do something to harm others.


    After all, what Si Fan had done in the original text could be said to have violated half of all the laws. If he really wanted to attack her, he might be after her life. As such, there was no harm in listening to Yin Mo.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was finally willing to listen to her, Yin MO heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that there was hope.


    ¡°Sister, can we talk in your company? Your employees didn¡¯t let me in just now. Since you¡¯re out, it¡¯ll be easier. There are a lot of things to do, and it¡¯s a confidential matter. It won¡¯t be good if other employees hear about it.¡± Yin MO looked at Yin Xun expectantly.


    In reality, Si Fan had given her another mission, which was to enter the Xintao company building and see how they operated. Si Fan¡¯s reasoning was that Yin MO was Yin Xun¡¯s biological sister¡ªas long as she went in, she would get the chance to see their internal information.


    Although she was worried that it would harm Yin Xun at first, Si Fan assured her that he would not hurt Yin Xun. As long as Yin Xun listened to him obediently, he would even give her a high position in the future.


    Yin MO was really doing this for Yin Xun¡¯s own good.


    However, Yin Xun did not give Yin MO the chance. She crossed her arms and raised her chin slightly. ¡°It¡¯s fine for me to go in. But I¡¯m afraid that the company¡¯s confidential documents might be leaked. If there¡¯s anything, just say it here. There¡¯s no one around. Why? Could it be that you¡¯re saying something shameful?¡¯


    Liu Ying snickered when she heard that.


    ¡°Of course not.¡± Yin Mo¡¯s face turned red as she retorted weakly.


    Seeing that Yin Xun still refused to let her in, she could only give up on this idea. Instead, she said, ¡°Sister, Fan said that he won¡¯t pursue the matter between you and Xing Cheng. Also, we will forget about how you hurt him and caused him to go to jail. Fan is a good man. He doesn¡¯t plan to bear a grudge against you.


    ¡°After all, I¡¯m his lover. One day, we¡¯ll get married. When the day comes, we¡¯ll be a family. Fan will also have a share of our Yin family¡¯s assets, anyway. Since we¡¯re already a family, there¡¯s no need to divide us so openly. Blue Fox and Xintao are fighting against each other now.. Isn¡¯t this internal strife? In the end, it will only hurt the harmony of the family¡­¡±

 Chapter 252 - Chapter 252: Sudden Thought

    Chapter 252: Sudden Thought


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun had been listening to Yin MO with a calm expression, but Liu Ying could not stand it anymore.


    At this moment, she only felt her blood pressure soar. If it were not for the fact that it was illegal to assault someone, she really wanted to beat Yin MO up and crack her head open to see what was inside!


    She had suspected more than once that Yin Xun and Yin MO were not really biological sisters. However, looking at their appearances, they did look a little similar. This could not be a lie.


    A sudden thought popped up in Liu Ying¡¯s mind. Could it be that Yin Xun had absorbed all her intelligence before she was born, which was why Yin MO was so stupid?


    Just look at what Yin MO was saying. Si Fan and Yin MO were not even married yet, but they were already calling each other family and even discussing the family assets in front of Yin Xun.


    Si Fan was an outsider. Liu Ying and her brother were born from the same womb but they were still fighting over assets. How could Yin MO have the nerve to say this?


    Moreover, Si Fan was a domestic abuser! Yin MO had got hit before even living together after marriage. Was Yin MO not afraid of being beaten to death by him after they got married?


    At this moment, Liu Ying¡¯s brows were tightly knitted together. She stared at Yin MO and wanted to interrupt her several times, but seeing that Yin Xun had no reaction, she endured it.


    She knew that she was not smart and would always believe others easily, but she at least knew the basics. Compared to Yin MO, at least, she was a genius.


    Yin MO did not notice Liu Ying¡¯s expression. She stared at Yin Xun the entire time. When she saw that Yin Xun did not seem like she would reply, she said,


    ¡°After all, Blue Fox has been developing for many years. It has long stabilized.


    Your company has just started. It¡¯s impossible for you to fight against Blue Fox. Fortunately, Fan is magnanimous. He said that if you agree to merge Xintao with Blue Fox, he will be president and you will be the vice president. Then, all the past strife will be written off.


    ¡°Not only that, but he also knows that are problems with Xintao Express. He said that as long as you agree to merge, he will take care of all the problems Xintao had before. Sister, your company only has two small express delivery companies. Everything is working normally now, but it won¡¯t be long before there are drawbacks. Once problems arise with the delivery system, your shopping platform will easily collapse.


    ¡°Besides, Sister, you clearly like Xing Cheng, don¡¯t you? Why aren¡¯t you brave enough to admit it? I know you¡¯re worried that Dad doesn¡¯t approve of him, but this is your own relationship after all. You have to fight for your own happiness¡­¡±


    The more she spoke, the more she deviated from the topic. Yin Xun¡¯s brows gradually furrowed.


    A merger of companies sounded like a joke. She was not a fool like Yin Mo¡ª how could she believe Si Fan¡¯s words? However, when Yin MO mentioned Xing Cheng again, Yin Xun felt inexplicably frustrated. It was as if those words had a special effect on her.


    When she was thinking about this, Fang Yao¡¯s figure suddenly appeared in her mind. He had shielded her beneath him and made light of his injuries. If she were to like someone, Xing Cheng was inferior to Fang Yao anyway¡­


    At the thought of this, Yin Xun quickly shook her head. What was she thinking? Fang Yao was her sugar daddy. She could not have any improper thoughts about him.


    Yin Xun only thought of him right now because she instinctively wanted Fang Yao¡¯s help.


    ¡°Yin MO!¡± Liu Ying saw Yin Xun standing there in a daze and thought that she was frightened by Yin Mo¡¯s words. She immediately stopped Yin MO from continuing. At the same time, she raised her hand and slapped Yin Mo¡¯s face fiercely. A clear palm print instantly appeared on Yin Mo¡¯s face.


    ¡®Why did you hit me¡­¡± Yin MO covered her stinging face and asked Liu Ying pitifully.


    Liu Ying put her hands on her hips and said, ¡°There was a fly buzzing around your face just now. Didn¡¯t you hear how annoying it was? I was doing this for your own good. I helped you chase the fly away, but I didn¡¯t use enough strength, it seems. ¡®


    Liu Ying could not let Yin MO convince Yin Xun. She had also invested in this project, after all. If Yin Xun got tricked by Yin MO, would she not lose money too?


    This was her entire fortune. If she made a loss here, her life would be ruined.


    Liu Ying was just making up the story, but Yin MO actually believed her. She squeezed out a smile with tears in her eyes. ¡°Thank you for helping me get rid of the fly.¡±


    Yin Xun was still thinking about Fang Yao. When she heard a crisp slapping sound, she immediately came back to her senses..

 Chapter 253 - Chapter 253: Very Aggrieved

    Chapter 253: Very Aggrieved


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°Yin MO, go back and tell Si Fan that it¡¯s not impossible to merge the two companies. But only if he gives up his current shares. If he can¡¯t do it, then he can go somewhere else.¡± From the moment she thought of Fang Yao, Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts suddenly became a little chaotic. She did not want to argue with Yin MO anymore, so she called over Liu Ying and left.


    Although Yin MO was rejected by Yin Xun, as she watched Yin Xun¡¯s departing figure and thought that she did not deny liking Xing Cheng this time, Yin MO could not help but feel a trace of happiness in her heart.


    ¡°Looks like Fan was right. Sister still likes Xing Cheng,¡± Yin MO whispered to herself. Then, she took out her phone and called Si Fan.


    Yin Mo told Si Fan about Yin Xun and Liu Ying¡¯s collaboration. Si Fan was enraged.


    ¡°That woman was head over heels for me back then. She even said that she would listen to everything I said. Why did she change her mind in such a short time?¡± Si Fan simply could not understand.


    ¡°Maybe she saw that Xintao was in the limelight recently, so she came to look for my sister¡­¡± When she heard Si Fan say that Liu Ying liked him, Yin Mo¡¯s heart sank a little.


    ¡®What do you know? Xintao is only like this because of the novelty during their launch. In terms of strength, it¡¯s still Blue Fox¡¯s win!¡± Si Fan¡¯s tone was irritable. After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, ¡°Did you see Mi Jin?¡± ¡°Mi Jin? Is that the programmer?¡± Yin MO asked.


    ¡°If we can¡¯t convince Yin Xun, we¡¯ll start with Mi Jin. Oh right, and that Mary from her company. Send me a copy of her personal information later , ¡± Si Fan said in a low voice.


    Yin MO was confused. ¡°Why do we need her information?¡±


    ¡°Just do what I tell you. Are you going to leave me now? Shouldn¡¯t you help me unconditionally?¡± Si Fan started to use both kinds of tactics again.


    Yin MO was afraid of him being like this, so she quickly agreed.


    After that, Si Fan told Yin Mo his thoughts and asked her to do as he requested. At first, Yin MO was a little hesitant, but in the face of Si Fan¡¯s impatience, she compromised.


    Mary was employed by the Yin family¡¯s company, so it was easy to get her personal information. Yin MO only had to make a call to the human resources department to get the data.


    Yin Xun did not allow Yin MO to go inside the company, but she did not say that Yin MO could not participate in the company¡¯s matters completely. Hence, the employee did not think too much about it and sent it to Yin MO directly.


    After solving one problem, there was another issue¡ªhow to deal with Mi Jin.


    Since she did not have the phone number, she could not enter the company building. Since that was the case, Yin Mo turned around and looked in the direction that Yin Xun had left. An idea arose in her mind¡­


    At this moment, Yin Xun and Liu Ying had already arrived at the coffee shop. Since it was Yin Xun¡¯s treat, Liu Ying did not hold back and ordered all kinds of cake.


    Other than that, she had also ordered fruit ice cream and waffles. Yin Xun¡¯s eyes widened in shock.


    ¡°Miss Liu Ying, can you finish this much? You can¡¯t waste food, you know.¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows slightly.


    However, as soon as she said that, Liu Ying¡¯s eyes turned red and she looked extremely aggrieved.


    Yin Xun was shocked and quickly comforted Liu Ying. ¡°You can have it You can have it. You can order whatever you want. You can eat as much as you want¡­¡±


    However, no matter how Yin Xun coaxed her, it was useless. Liu Ying¡¯s eyes were bloodshot as she sobbed. Then, tears began to fall.


    The surrounding people looked over and thought that Yin Xun had made Liu Ying cry. They rolled their eyes at her. When Yin Xun saw this, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. For some reason, this scene actually made her feel like she had abandoned and hurt another girl.


    ¡®What¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Xun could tell that something was wrong with Liu Ying and quickly asked with concern. This was her second sugar parent, so she had to please her.


    Liu Ying scornfully stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth and chewed a few times, as if she was using the cake to vent her anger. After swallowing it, she began to explain things to Yin Xun.


    It turned out that Liu Ying had only agreed to the collaboration because she had no way out.


    When Liu Ying first found out about her parents¡¯ distribution of the family assets, she was very aggrieved. Why should she let her brother take all the assets? She was also a child of the Liu family.


    Back then, she was very impulsive and had an explosive temper. She would explode at the slightest touch and was not good at planning things. That was why she made so many mistakes.


    However, she had not expected her brother, Liu Cheng, to overhear her argument with her parents..

 Chapter 254 - Chapter 254: Can t Be A Dainty White Flower

    Chapter 254: Can ¡®t Be A Dainty White Flower


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    At that time, her parents said that a daughter that got married was like spilled water. If they gave her the family assets, it would be equivalent to giving the Liu Corporation to her husband¡¯s family. They also knew that this was not fair to their daughter, so they agreed to help find a husband with a good background for her. At the same time, they would give her a generous dowry.


    What Liu Ying cared about from the beginning was not money, but the attitude of parents toward their children. What she wanted was for them to treat everyone equally.


    She could do whatever Liu Cheng could. She even felt that Liu Cheng was not as smart as her.


    Because she was not convinced, Liu Ying did not hide her ambitions from her parents at all. She vowed that she would prove that she was stronger than her brother with her own actions. She would prove that she was qualified to inherit the family assets.


    She did not know if Liu Cheng was outside at that time. It was two days later that Liu Cheng talked to her about her relationships.


    Liu Cheng felt a sense of crisis and even started to help her find a boyfriend. The day after Liu Ying returned, her parents called her to come home, saying that they had something very important to tell her.


    Liu Ying did not suspect anything at all. She really thought that her parents had something important to do and rushed back early the next morning.


    ¡°I shouldn¡¯t have gone back at that time!¡± Liu Ying said fiercely.


    After hearing Liu Ying¡¯s explanation, Yin Xun nodded and said, ¡°No wonder you haven¡¯t appeared in the neighborhood for the past few days. So you¡¯ve gone home.¡±


    Liu Ying nodded and said, ¡°If I had known that they wanted me to go back to get married, I would never have returned.


    ¡°That man is my brother¡¯s good friend. He only wants to marry me because he likes my family¡¯s resources. My brother would help him expand his family¡¯s prospects. However, according to my understanding, that man already has a woman he likes. It¡¯s just that she doesn¡¯t have a good background and his family won¡¯t let him marry her.¡±


    Liu Ying pouted and her eyebrows were almost knitted together. ¡°He loves that woman to death. If I really marry him, what awaits me in the future will be humiliation. I might even have to face the matter of an illegitimate son snatching the family assets¡­


    Yin Xun realized that Liu Ying kept talking about family assets. It seemed like she had a deep obsession with it in her heart.


    Actually, Liu Ying could not be blamed for thinking this way. Anyone would feel uncomfortable facing biased parents, especially because of her gender. The one who was biased was in the wrong.


    Yin Xun smiled faintly and asked, ¡°But when you liked Si Fan back then, he also had someone he liked. Everyone knows that he and Yin MO were a couple.¡±


    ¡°Si Fan likes Yin MO?¡± Liu Ying sneered. ¡°How is that possible? Si Fan only loves himself. In the past, I could tell that Si Fan didn¡¯t really love Yin Mo. I couldn¡¯t tell his full character, though. There¡¯s also the most important point..


    Liu Ying was a little embarrassed as she said, ¡°1 was stupid in the past. In order to woo Si Fan, I did whatever he said. I almost made a huge mistake..


    Liu Ying glanced at Yin Xun in embarrassment and did not continue.


    When Yin Xun had just returned to the country, she had given her a ¡°big gift¡± at the airport as soon as she got off the plane. The aftermath had almost caused irreparable consequences. Fortunately, Yin Xun discovered it in time. Otherwise¡­


    Yin Xun knew what Liu Ying did not say. She smiled and said nonchalantly, ¡°Is this what it means to become friends after a fight?¡¯


    Her words resolved the awkwardness.


    Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun gratefully. Yin Xun was indeed a capable person. She could turn an enemy into a friend and even forgive her for such a serious mistake. This made her feel even more guilty.


    Liu Ying silently swore in her heart that Yin Xun was the last person she would harm in the future. Not only that, but she also had to protect the person Yin Xun liked.


    Even Liu Ying did not expect that her words would come true in the future. The price to pay, however, was rather steep.


    Compared to Liu Ying¡¯s feelings of guilt and gratitude, Yin Xun did not feel as strongly about this.


    In Yin Xun¡¯s heart, Liu Ying was only her financier now. Of course, she had to protect her financier properly. There was no such thing as eternal friends and enemies in the business world. As long as they had common interests, they were friends. Once their interests were damaged, even their closest family members might turn against each other. Liu Ying and her brother were a good example.


    As for whether Liu Ying would really win her over and become friends in the future, that would depend on their future interactions and Liu Ying¡¯s performance.


    A dainty white flower could not do anything big. If she wanted to achieve something great, she had to be both kind and vicious depending on the situation..

 Chapter 255 - Chapter 255: Mysterious Person

    Chapter 255: Mysterious Person


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°So, Yin Xun, I¡¯m betting my life on you. You can¡¯t lose. Otherwise, my life will be over. If you need me to invest, you¡¯ll have to support me in the future. I won¡¯t leave you even if you beat me to death.¡± Liu Ying stared at Yin Xun with a burning gaze, as if she was confessing her love for her.


    Yin Xun held her forehead helplessly. Why did it feel like she was a big bad wolf now and Liu Ying was a little white rabbit?


    Yin Xun shuddered. What was she thinking?!


    Raising her hand, she pushed all the desserts on the table toward Liu Ying. Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Investment is risky. Anything can happen in the future. No one can guarantee that the project will definitely make money. Those who promise a profit are all liars.¡±


    Liu Ying, who was putting a spoonful of dessert into her mouth, suddenly froze. She did not know whether she felt like eating or not. She looked at Yin Xun in shock. ¡°That¡¯s not what you said before signing the contract! ¡±


    ¡°Ah, you didn¡¯t ask..¡± Yin Xun pretended to be surprised as well. ¡®Who would pull in people to invest without talking about positive benefits and just talk about losing money? Doesn¡¯t that make sense?¡±


    These words did not sound false. Liu Ying frowned. On second thought, this was all the money she had. She could not afford to lose, so she said aggrievedly, ¡°l don¡¯t care. Anyway, you can¡¯t give away that money. As long as you don¡¯t¡­ As long as you don¡¯t, it doesn¡¯t matter even if you don¡¯t earn money!¡±


    Liu Ying made a concession. The contract had been signed. Even if she wanted to go back on her word now, it was too late. She had to take back the words of praise she gave Yin Xun.


    How was she kind? Yin Xun was clearly using her as a fool. Hmph, she was only treating her like this because she was not good at business.


    ¡°Alright, alright, alright. I have to earn money. I¡¯ve invested all my assets into it. If I make a loss, I¡¯ll be finished too.¡± Yin Xun smiled and comforted Liu Ying.


    ¡°By the way, do your parents want you to marry that man?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Upon hearing this, Liu Ying¡¯s mood, which had just improved because of Yin Xun¡¯s words, instantly took a downward turn.


    She frowned and nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. At first, my parents were a little conflicted. They thought that my feelings for the person were more important. I don¡¯t know what my brother said to them, but my parents changed their minds and urged me to marry that man. They even said that if I didn¡¯t, they wouldn¡¯t give me living expenses in the future. ¡®


    After hearing Liu Ying¡¯s words, Yin Xun raised her eyebrows in surprise. Were the parents of the Liu family this ruthless? Back then, even when Liu Ying made a mistake and caused such a huge problem for the Liu Corporation, her parents had not come out to punish Liu Ying. They were only anxious to save her.


    Back then, Yin Xun thought that Liu Ying was pampered at home. She did not expect that it would change once greater benefits were involved. She guessed that Liu Cheng promised some greater benefit to tempt his parents.


    ¡°How are you going to live in the future if you don¡¯t have any living expenses?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Liu Ying let outa long sigh. ¡°Don¡¯t I still have a villa? Fortunately, I asked my father to buy me a house before the incident. If things don¡¯t work out, I¡¯ll sell the villa and buy a smaller house to live in.¡±


    Yin Xun rested her chin with one hand and tapped the table with the other.


    There was a soothing piano piece playing in the coffee shop. Following the rhythm of the piano piece, Yin Xun suddenly thought of something.


    She asked Liu Ying, ¡°Can you cook?¡±


    Liu Ying was stunned. She did not understand why Yin Xun would suddenly change the topic to cooking.


    However, she still said, ¡°Yes. Although I have a chef at home, I prefer the feeling of cooking by myself.¡±


    Yin Xun was amused. She snapped her fingers and said, ¡°That¡¯s good. I have ingredients at home, but I don¡¯t know how to cook. We live in the same neighborhood now. You can come to my house to cookin the future. I can also freeload. How about that?¡±


    Coincidentally, Yin Xun felt that it was not good to go to Fang Yao¡¯s house every day to freeload. In order to thank him each time, she had to rack her brains to choose a gift.


    Liu Ying¡¯s appearance came at a good time. She could be in charge of the ingredients, and Liu Ying could be in charge of cooking. The two of them were business partners, so it was convenient for them to discuss business matters over meals. It was simply perfect.


    Far away in the villa, Fang Yao suddenly sneezed.


    Liu Ying¡¯s eyes lit up. She felt that this idea was very good and immediately agreed. ¡°Alright! Since that¡¯s the case, I won¡¯t order anything more after we leave.¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    It turned out that Liu Ying was possessed by the spirit of a hamster and was already stocking up on food.


    While the two of them were talking, Yin Xun suddenly noticed a person at the next table. Judging from the figure, it seemed to be a woman. She was dressed tightly, like a person from the underworld in television dramas. It was summer now, but she did not seem to mind the heat.


    A shop assistant came over to ask the person for her order, but she did not say anything. She only took the menu and pointed at it a few times, indicating what she wanted. After that, she did not do anything else.


    Yin Xun was afraid of attracting that person¡¯s attention, but she quietly sized her up..

 Chapter 256 - Chapter 256: The Three Of Them Together

    Chapter 256: The Three Of Them Together


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun felt that there was something wrong with that person¡¯s posture. She gave Liu Ying a look, indicating that there was something wrong with that person.


    Liu Ying instantly understood and nodded.


    Then, Yin Xun said, ¡°I¡¯m going to the washroom.¡±


    On the way to the washroom, Yin Xun glanced at the person. She was panicking and looked like she was putting something in her pocket. Yin Xun immediately understood what was going on. She sneered and ignored her.


    After returning from the washroom, Yin Xun sent a message to Liu Ying and told her about the person beside her. Then, Yin Xun stood up and said, ¡°Since we¡¯ve already discussed things, we can¡¯t go back on our word now. I¡¯ll leave first. Eat slowly.¡±


    Before leaving, Yin Xun left some money for Liu Ying.


    After Yin Xun walked out of the coffee shop, the thickly-dressed person came to Liu Ying¡¯s side.


    She took off her jacket, revealing her face that was covered in sweat. As expected, the person was Yin Mo.


    Liu Ying did not look surprised at all. She rolled her eyes and asked Yin MO angrily, ¡°What are you doing here?¡±


    ¡°Can I sit here?¡± Yin MO asked.


    ¡°No.¡± Liu Ying rejected her without hesitation, not giving Yin MO any respect at all.


    Yin MO was embarrassed for a moment, but after thinking for a few seconds, she still sat beside Liu Ying.


    She had no choice. She had come with a mission. Si Fan said that if she could not complete it, they might not be able to get married in the future. No matter what, she had to succeed.


    Liu Ying rolled her eyes again. She picked up the juice and took a big gulp. Then, she took another bite of dessert and asked angrily, ¡°Tell me, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°Fan already knows that you invested in my sister.¡± Yin Mo¡¯s expression was serious.


    Liu Ying nodded and said nonchalantly, ¡°Yes, so?¡±


    Yin MO said, ¡°Fan said that he asked you about investing with him in the past and you agreed. How could you go back on your word and invest in my sister? My sister¡¯s company has just started. In terms of strength, she can¡¯t beat Fan. The reason Fan didn¡¯t do anything to her up til now is because she¡¯s my sister. He doesn¡¯t want me to be sad.¡±


    ¡°Yin MO, are you a child?¡± Liu Ying frowned. ¡°How can business matters be determined just by talking? Otherwise, what¡¯s the point of asking for a contract? Are you going to make a pinky promise like a child?¡±


    Unexpectedly, Yin MO did not listen to her at all. She simply asked, ¡°Liu Ying, did you choose my sister to take revenge on Fan because you couldn¡¯t be with him?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Liu Ying¡¯s face scrunched up in shock.


    Yin MO continued, ¡°Because we¡¯re good friends, I¡¯m here to advise you. Hurry up and stop all this. Invest in Fan¡¯s company. The rewards will be greater than my sister¡¯s. Also, Fan has decided to buy Xintao. When the time comes, my sister will become his subordinate. Fan is a good man. He won¡¯t treat you badly.


    ¡°If you really can¡¯t let go of Fan, then¡­ then I¡­¡± Yin MO seemed to be conflicted about what to say next. After a moment, she closed her eyes as if she had made a huge decision and said, ¡°I¡¯ll allow you to continue liking Fan. But in the end, only I can marry him. The best I can do is turn a blind eye to the two of you¡­¡±


    Yin MO said this with her eyes closed and only opened them after she finished speaking.


    Seeing that Liu Ying was staring at her blankly without any expression on her face, she thought that Liu Ying was overjoyed, so she said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to thank me. I know I¡¯m making a big decision. I only agree to this because you¡¯re my friend. If it were anyone else, I wouldn¡¯t allow it.¡±


    Yin MO sounded quite proud.


    Only then did Liu Ying¡¯s face show some reaction. She pointed at herself in disbelief and asked, ¡°You mean to let Si Fan love both of us at the same time?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded gently and added, ¡°I¡¯m the one Fan loves the most. I¡¯ll be the one to marry him in the future. I just¡­ I just saw how sad you looked, so I made this decision!¡±


    Liu Ying knocked her head lightly and asked exasperatedly, ¡°Yin MO, do you know what you¡¯re saying? Let me ask you, does Si Fan usually hit you a lot?¡±


    ¡°He does¡­¡± Yin Mo quickly added, ¡°Actually, he has his own troubles. He only did that because he was under too much pressure. Every time he did that, he would apologize to me properly and be overcome with guilt.. He really loves

    Chapter 257: She¡¯s Paying


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Liu Ying was surprised enough to hear Yin MO say she did not mind, but she actually seemed to be pleased with herself. There was really no hope for her. To think that she had once tried to persuade Yin Mo to escape Si Fan¡¯s control on account of their past relationship.


    She used to think that Yin MO had her reasons for staying with Si Fan even after being beaten up. Now, she understood that Yin MO was simply okay with


    it.


    When Yin Mo saw that Liu Ying did not object, she said happily, ¡°So you¡¯ve agreed, right? Then let¡¯s go look for Mi Jin together. Mi Jin is a friend who worked with Fan in the past. He left Blue Fox because he did something illegal. Now, Fan said that as long as Mi Jin sincerely repents and agrees to continue working for him, the past strife will be over¡­¡±


    Liu Ying had expected better from her. At this moment, she could not take it anymore. She picked up the juice in front of her and splashed it directly on Yin Mo¡¯s face, along with the ice cubes.


    ¡°Ah!¡± Yin MO was caught off guard and screamed.


    The people around them did not understand what was going on, and they all looked over. The waiter who was not far away saw this and quickly brought a clean towel to Yin Mo. ¡®Miss, are you alright?¡±


    Yin MO was shocked, and tears immediately fell from her eyes. She took the towel and wiped her face while crying.


    Before Yin MO could say anything, the waiter turned to look at Liu Ying. ¡°Miss, do you need any help?¡±


    The waiter was very perceptive. He did not directly ask what had happened. Instead, he asked Liu Ying if she needed help.


    Liu Ying knew that she could not do anything to Yin MO anymore. Otherwise, she would be causing trouble in the coffee shop and affecting the other customers.


    Liu Ying smiled at the waiter and explained, ¡°l don¡¯t need help. She needs help. She said it was too hot here, so I helped her cool down.¡±


    The waiter nodded and turned to ask Yin MO, ¡°Miss, if you feel hot, the ice in our shop can be used for free. How much do you need? I can help you get it¡­¡±


    Although she was aggrieved and upset, Yin MO still tried her best to smile. ¡°Thank you, but there¡¯s no need.¡±


    After the waiter left, Yin MO asked Liu Ying in aggrievedly, ¡°Why did you splash Liu Ying smiled and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you! I¡¯m helping you cool down. I think your brain might have been fried. ¡®


    She did not know if Yin MO really believed what she said or if she was pretending to. Yin MO nodded and did not show any anger. She even explained, ¡°I¡¯m not hot¡­ ¡®


    Liu Ying,


    Liu Ying¡¯s face darkened. She changed her tone and spat, ¡°Yin MO, let me tell you. No matter how much I desire a boyfriend, I won¡¯t share a man with you! Besides, what¡¯s so good about that trashy man, Si Fan? Do you think everyone likes to pick up trash like you? Oh, wait, you¡¯re trash too. The two of you are a perfect match. Don¡¯t break up, or else you¡¯ll only harm others!¡¯


    Liu Ying scolded her fiercely. Recently, she had been holding back her anger and had nowhere to vent it. Yin MO had bumped into the muzzle of the gun, which gave her a chance to vent.


    ¡°W -Why are you bad-mouthing Fan? He¡¯s not trash. He¡¯s a great person. You¡¯re only slandering him because you can¡¯t get him¡­¡± Yin MO was not angry at being splashed with water, nor was she angry at being scolded. In the end, she was only angry at Liu Ying for slandering Si Fan.


    Liu Ying felt that Yin MO was hopeless and cursed. ¡°Idiot!¡±


    Then, she turned around and called the waiter over to help her pack the remaining desserts.


    While the waiter was packing, Liu Ying pushed a brand new cup of coffee that she had not drunk to Yin Mo. ¡°Here, this is for you.¡±


    Liu Ying did not like coffee; she preferred fruit juice.


    Yin MO was flattered. ¡®Thank you!¡± She took the cup and took a sip.


    Liu Ying smiled when she saw this. When the waiter brought the packed food over, Liu Ying stood up and left.


    ¡°Hey, Miss, you¡­¡± The waiter quickly walked over to stop Liu Ying.


    Liu Ying pointed at Yin Mo and said, ¡°She¡¯s treating. Go and pay for it.¡± She left after that.


    The waiter was afraid that Yin MO would not pay, so she ignored the fact that Yin Mo wanted to leave. He walked straight to her and said, ¡°Um, Miss, do you want to pay now or later?¡¯


    ¡°Now¡­¡± Yin MO finally understood what Liu Ying meant by giving her coffee. She was asking her to pay!


    At this moment, she looked like an idiot. She had not completed her mission and still had to pay. Moreover, she had been splashed with juice. It was cold and sticky. The feeling was very uncomfortable.


    After paying the bill, Yin MO left..

 Chapter 258 - Chapter 258: Meal Buddies

    Chapter 258: Meal Buddies


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    When Yin Xun came out of the coffee shop, she did not return to Xintao. Instead, she went to the Yin Corporation.


    Ever since she handed the contract to Mary, she did not care much about it. Now that the investment was in place, it was time to officially start.


    Right now, Mary and the new contractees were still at the Yin Corporation. Xintao¡¯s headquarters was a rented building, so there was no place to open another company. It seemed that the construction of the new building had to be done as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to run both sides.


    Liu Ying said that she only had 20 million yuan, but in fact, this was only the money in her card. In addition to that, Liu Ying also had two villas in other cities, as well as jewelry, cars, and various other items. In order to prove herself, she sold everything she had to pump into the investment. Now, only the villa was left.


    In total, she had almost 60 million yuan. This was enough to start a short video business.


    Moreover, since Xintao had mostly stabilized, the subsequent testing was handed over to the other programmers in the company.


    Mi Jin now had enough time and energy to make a short video website. His skill was not just for show. It had not been long since Yin Xun gave him the plan, but he was almost done.


    On the way, Yin Xun received a call from Liu Ying.


    Liu Ying told Yin Xun about her conversation with Yin MO word for word. In the end, she said angrily, ¡°Yin Xun, are you sure Yin MO is your sister? She¡¯s not just an ordinary fool. She actually suggested something like sharing Si Fan!¡±


    Yin Xun was not surprised at all. She smiled and said, ¡°Isn¡¯t this normal for her? You¡¯ve been pestering Si Fan a lot in the past. Didn¡¯t you realize that he¡¯s close to other girls? Do you really think Yin MO didn¡¯t know about you? Actually, she¡¯s not making a fuss because she knows that her status as his true girlfriend is unshakable.¡±


    For a moment, Liu Ying did not know what to say. She snorted coldly and said, ¡°Hmph, if it weren¡¯t for the fact that she¡¯s your sister, I would have hit her when she said that!¡¯


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°She¡¯s my sister, so you can hit her. You¡¯d be doing it for me. Oh right, be careful not to hurt anyone, though, or you¡¯ll go to jail.¡±


    Hearing the mention of jail, Liu Ying instantly felt embarrassed again. She said sheepishly, ¡°1 know, I know. Anyway, I have nothing to do. I¡¯ll go back first. Call me when you get back. I¡¯ll go to your house to cook. I won¡¯t be reserved. I¡¯ll stay at your house for dinner from now on.¡¯


    ¡°Okay, as long as you cook, it¡¯s fine,¡± Yin Xun agreed with a smile.


    With someone cooking at home, how could she not be happy?


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun leaned against the car window and looked out. She was usually too busy with work. Ever since she came to this world, she had not gone out to take in the sights. She did not even know if all the places were the same as the previous world.


    As the scenery outside the car window rapidly receded, thousands of thoughts gradually spread in Yin Xun¡¯s mind.


    Perhaps it was because she had stayed in this world for too long; she felt that her impression of the previous world was slowly fading. It felt like it was just the scene of a dream now.


    She could not understand now. Was this world real, or was the previous world real? Which world would she stay in in the end?


    In the past, she was just a nobody. Although she did not earn much money, she was content every day. The only thing was that she did not have many friends and was relatively lonely. In this world, she had a powerful status and could do whatever she wanted. She also had parents who loved her and she could make friends¡­


    Instantly, Fang Yao¡¯s figure appeared in her mind again. This time, Yin Xun did not reject the thought. As expected, she had already treated Fang Yao as her best friend.


    Actually, Yin Xun felt that his relationship with Fang Yao was closer to a meal buddy. After all, they ate together every day.


    At the thought of this, Yin Xun could not help but laugh. A meal buddy was a funny description.


    Just as Yin Xun was letting her imagination run wild in the car, a familiar figure suddenly appeared outside. Although the car was moving very quickly and the image passed by in a flash, Yin Xun was very sure that the person she saw just now was Yin Rui!


    ¡°Hey, driver. Please go back. Drive slowly. I saw a familiar person.¡± Yin Xun quickly stopped the driver.


    This time, she had left directly from the coffee shop, so she did not drive her own car and hailed a taxi from the road.


    The driver was easy to talk to. After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s request, he smiled and turned around. He even said, ¡°Young lady, the area we passed by was a kind of clubbing area. And you saw someone you know.. Don¡¯t tell me you spotted your boyfriend?¡±

 Chapter 259 - Chapter 259: A Little Dangerous

    Chapter 259: A Little Dangerous


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun replied indifferently, ¡°No, it¡¯s my younger brother.¡±


    ¡°Oh.¡± As soon as the driver heard that it was not her boyfriend, he stopped talking.


    As Yin Xun had asked the driver to turn around the moment she saw him, they arrived at the place where she had seen Yin Rui very soon. Yin Xun was not in a hurry to get out of the car. She remained in the car and looked outside quietly.


    She had not seen it wrong. The person outside was indeed Yin Rui. At this moment, he was walking with five or six boys with colorful hair. They seemed a little unsteady on their feet. It was obvious that they had been drinking.


    Yin Xun narrowed her eyes and looked at Yin Rui. She did not expect Yin Rui, who was usually well-mannered, to hook up with such company and even learn to drink


    Yin Xun took out her phone and snapped a few photos.


    When the driver saw this, he asked curiously, ¡°Young lady, didn¡¯t you say that you were looking for your brother? Why don¡¯t you call him? Why are you taking photos instead?¡¯


    ¡°I need evidence so he can¡¯t deny it,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    After taking the photos, Yin Xun asked the driver to continue driving. She had no intention of getting out of the car and calling Yin Rui. Yin Rui did not even know that his sister had already discovered him.


    When they reached the entrance of the company, Yin Xun paid the fare and got out of the taxi.


    When she went inside, Mary was training the contracted streamers. When she saw Yin Xun coming over, she told them to continue learning from the instructor and left the room.


    ¡°President Yin, did you come over to check on them?¡¯ Mary asked.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, I¡¯m here to ask you to settle the resignation procedures. From now on, you¡¯ll work at Xintao. I have other tasks for you.¡¯


    Mary looked at Yin Xun in confusion. Seeing that there were people coming and going, Yin Xun said, ¡°Come to my office.¡±


    Taking Mary to her office, Yin Xun handed Mary the photos she had just printed. ¡°Go find a private investigator and find out who these people are.¡±


    Mary took the photo and looked at it a few times before saying, ¡°Although their clothes are strange, from the looks of it, they should be high school or university students. What¡¯s wrong with them¡­¡±


    Before she could finish speaking, she noticed the person in the middle. Was that Yin Rui?!


    Yin Xun frowned and said, ¡°Yin Rui doesn¡¯t drink, but he actually drank with these people this time. Do you know where I saw them? Look at the background of the photo.¡±


    Mary took a closer look at the people behind them. The pixels of the phone did not have the quality of a camera, so it was a little blurry. It took Mary a lot of effort to see where it was.


    Surprised, she said, ¡°Is that a club?¡±


    It was the kind of low-class clubbing area where one would find a sleeping partner. The costs were high and it was dirty. She had seen such places on the news. Because it was a dark industry, it caused a lot of trouble.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. Looking at how familiar Yin Rui is with them; he must have known them for a long time. I¡¯m worried that they will do something out of line. Get someone to investigate. It¡¯s fine if they¡¯re just ordinary students, then I don¡¯t have to worry. I just have to control him properly. But if he made arrangements with those people..


    Yin Xun did not finish the sentence. Seeing that Yin Xun did not say anything more, Mary did not ask further.


    This was a private matter of her boss¡¯s family. She just had to accept the mission without questions.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll do it right away.¡± Mary was very fast. Seeing that Yin Xun had nothing else to say, she immediately went out to do it.


    Yin Xun frowned as she watched Mary leave.


    In the original work, in order to destroy the Yin family, Si Fan plotted to frame the Yin family, and the way he dealt with Yin Rui was to make him take drugs.


    At that time, Si Fan had sent a few of his men to get close to Yin Rui and gain his trust. Then, he secretly injected him with drugs. From then on, Yin Rui became an addict.


    Drugs were a very scary thing. Although Yin Xun had never taken drugs herself, she had read a lot of relevant news.


    Even if those addicts could successfully leave the rehabilitation center, they would still do it again in the future.


    There was no way to completely quit that kind of thing.


    Some people were addicted to smoking. It was already very strenuous for someone to quit smoking, let alone pure drugs. Yin Rui, that silly child, had not experienced life¡¯s hardships, so it was easy for him to trust others.


    It seemed that she had to find something for him to do. Yin Xun gave it some thought..

 Chapter 260 - Chapter 260: Contracted Streamers

    Chapter 260: Contracted Streamers


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Originally, Yin Xun did not plan to return to the Yin family house. Now, it seemed that she had no choice.


    After watching the bloggers¡¯ training for a while, Yin Xun felt more and more satisfied.


    There were three men and four women. There were a total of seven people. All of them were good- looking and unique. The most ordinary one was also a handsome young man.


    Yin Xun remembered that when Mary first signed them, she had mentioned them to her and told her about their general strengths.


    At that time, she was so engrossed in Xintao that she did not remember much. She only processed that all of them knew how to dance, draw, and play musical instruments.


    There was only one of the men who said that he knew how to do makeup. Because this hobby was rather peculiar, no one was particularly interested in him. Mary, on the other hand, decided to sign him because she felt that he was very unique.


    Yin Xun looked at the few people in the room and immediately guessed which one of them was the makeup guy¡ªhe did not fit in with the rest of the group.


    It was normal for a girl to be good at makeup, but he was not a girl. Instead, he was a tall, thin, fair, and weak-looking boy. He was the most ordinary-looking one among them.


    This boy seemed to be ostracized by the others. Everyone was chatting and laughing, but they ignored him. The boy sat at the side and watched them chat. It was obvious that he wanted to join in, but every time he opened his mouth, he would be interrupted by a girl.


    The girl in question had a curvaceous figure. She was about 1.7 meters tall and had flaxen hair that reached her waist. She had an oval face and light makeup. She looked like a fairly mature woman.


    She seemed to look down on that boy. Every time she looked at him, her gaze would be filled with disdain.


    Yin Xun could understand why everyone was so hostile to this boy. The


    Internet was not very developed yet, and information was not widely spread. Everyone took their traditional views very seriously; they all thought that makeup was a woman ¡®s business.


    Other than male celebrities who needed to put on makeup because of their roles, ordinary men would be considered not masculine if they put on makeup.


    Discrimination against men in makeup was no different from those who favored boys over girls. It was a type of prejudice.


    Yin Xun felt that everyone had the right to pursue what they liked and should not be restricted by gender.


    As long as he did not hurt or affect others, he should be accepted no matter what he did. Even if you did not want to accept someone because you find them distasteful, you should just stay away. There was no need to slander others.


    Looking at the boy who was isolated, an idea suddenly appeared in Yin Xun¡¯s mind.


    She called the instructor out and asked for the blogger¡¯s information. She suddenly wanted to know more about them.


    The boy who had been isolated was called Lin Zhu. Because his family was poor, he dropped out of university halfway through his studies to find work. Due to his poor grades, he could not get a scholarship. After dropping out of school, he worked as a salesperson for a cosmetics shop for three years. Yin Xun took a look at his resume. He worked with a big brand of cosmetics and had even won championships many times.


    As for why he left, it was not written in his resume.


    As for the other curly-haired girl, her name was Tian Chu. She graduated from the Film Academy and studied photography.


    She had just graduated a year ago and was a model before she came here. Yin


    Xun realized that this girl¡¯s resume was quite simple. There were only two lines of words and nothing else.


    As for the resumes of the other people, Yin Xun had also read them but did not have much of an impression of them. They were just good-looking, and everyone had the same talents, such as painting, musical instruments, and dancing. They were tall and not very special.


    ¡°President Yin, do you have any requests?¡± The instructor saw that Yin Xun did not show any reaction and was just staring at the resumes in a daze. Because she did not move for a long time, it seemed like Yin Xun was dissatisfied with these few people. The instructor was trembling when asking the question.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and pointed at the resumes. ¡°This Lin Zhu and


    Tian Chu, call them to my office. I have something to ask them.¡±


    The instructor heard that Yin Xun did not request for people with any particular skills. She seemed to be dissatisfied now and the instructor immediately panicked. She had already tried telling Mary that these two people had nothing going for them aside from their looks. It was a waste of money to sign them!


    Yin Xun had always been very generous to her employees. Although these contractees were still in the training stage, they had already started to receive their salaries according to normal work.


    They only had half a day of training every day. They did not have much to do the rest of the time. Yin Xun did not ask for anything, and Mary did not make a fuss either. Although she was only an instructor, she felt sorry for Yin Xun¡¯s money just by looking at the situation.


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡±


    Of course, she did not have the guts to voice her thoughts to Yin Xun directly. After that, she immediately went out to call them.


    Soon, Lin Zhu and Tian Chu arrived together. When they arrived at the office, Yin Xun could tell that Tian Chu truly hated Lin Zhu from the bottom of her heart..

 Chapter 261 - Chapter 261: So Youre a Celebrity

    Chapter 261: So You¡¯re a Celebrity


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°President Yin.¡± After the two of them came in, the first thing they did was greet Yin Xun. Before they came, the teacher had already reminded them of Yin Xun¡¯s identity.


    ¡°Please take a seat.¡± Yin Xun smiled and nodded. She invited the two of them to sit down and personally poured tea for them.


    Tian Chu did not react to this. When Yin Xun handed her the tea, she only smiled and thanked her. She did not show any other reaction.


    Lin Zhu¡¯s reaction was much greater. When Yin Xun handed him the tea, he immediately stood up and bowed slightly, thanking her several times before accepting the cup with both hands.


    Yin Xun noticed that Lin Zhu¡¯s hands were trembling when he took the cup.


    Immediately, Yin Xun had a rough idea of their personalities and the paths they were suitable to take.


    Lin Zhu¡¯s nervousness was obvious. Yin Xun felt that she should let him settle down for a while. Since that was the case, she should talk to Tian Chu first. ¡°I¡¯ve seen your resume, but there¡¯s nothing much on it. If you don¡¯t mind, I want to ask what your last job was.¡± Yin Xun looked at Tian Chu and asked with a faint smile.


    Tian Chu was a little surprised by Yin Xun¡¯s question. She asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t your assistant tell you?¡±


    Yin Xun was a little embarrassed about this. When Mary reported the thing to her, she had been fully devoted to Xintao and let Mary decide for herself. She only knew that Mary reported to her verbally, but she did not pay attention to it, so she did not remember it.


    ¡°I want to hear it from you personally. I want to have a talk with all of you contracted streamers,¡± Yin Xun pretended to be calm as she replied.


    Tian Chu nodded and turned to look at Lin Zhu. She then said to Yin Xun, ¡°Before we signed this contract, we had already agreed to keep this a secret and not let anyone else know. So¡­¡±


    Yin Xun did not say anything, but Lin Zhu immediately understood. He took the initiative to stand up and say, ¡°Ah, President Yin, my stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable. Can I go to the bathroom?¡±


    ¡°Alright, go ahead.¡± Yin Xun nodded. At the same time, she praised Lin Zhu in his heart. As expected of a salesperson; he had great foresight. Things would be less awkward if he took the initiative to leave.


    Lin Zhu gently closed the door behind him. Tian Chu only spoke after he left. ¡°I used to be a model and an actress. This is my resume.¡±


    After Tian Chu finished speaking, she opened the photo album on her phone and pointed out her previous works to Yin Xun. When she saw the works on it, Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. No wonder she felt that Tian Chu looked familiar when she first saw her. She also thought that her temperament was different from ordinary people. It turned out that Tian Chu had acted as the third female lead in a popular drama and was quite famous.


    Yin Xun had watched that television drama a few times when she was taking baths. She had some impression of the third female lead. She remembered that Tian Chu¡¯s role in the show was a goddess with an extraordinary temperament. At that time, even she was stunned by the performance.


    However, since Tian Chu was already a little famous, why would she accept Mary¡¯s contract? Yin Xun did not think that Mary had promised her great rewards and prospects. After all, compared to the salary of celebrities, the salary of a streamer on such a small website was nothing.


    The other possibility was that she had been tricked into coming here, but Mary had always been a reliable person. She would not lie to people like that.


    ¡°As far as I know, being an actress should be more profitable than signing a contract as a blogger, right? Why didn¡¯t you continue being an actor, but instead signed with a small video website that hasn¡¯t been established yet?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Tian Chu shrugged and pursed his lips. ¡°Because I broke my contract. I¡¯m currently carrying a high penalty for breaching the contract. Furthermore, according to the contract requirements, I can¡¯t appear on the big screen during the original contract period because of personal issues. Therefore, I can¡¯t rely on my fans to earn money anymore. I have to start over.¡±


    At the same time, Yin Xun sent a message to Mary. After sending it, she went online to check. The Internet did not report this incident in detail. It only said that for personal reasons, both parties had terminated the contract.


    ¡°Can I ask why you broke the contract?¡± Yin Xun pressed on.


    Tian Chu sneered. ¡°It¡¯s a very dark thing. It even involves the big shots of upper-class society. Are you sure you want to hear it?¡¯


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°As long as you¡¯re willing to say it. ¡®


    Seeing that Yin Xun did not seem to mind, Tian Chu thought that it made sense. The Yin family was also a member of the upper-class society. With her background, she did not have to worry about getting into trouble..

 Chapter 262 - Chapter 262: Yin Xun Was Frightened

    Chapter 262: Yin Xun Was Frightened


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    She slowly said, ¡°The reason for the termination of the contract is a simple one. It¡¯s the most common problem in the entertainment industry¡ªthe unspoken rules. A financier who¡¯s so old he already has a foot in the grave took a fancy to me and wants me as his mistress. In order to earn money, my company didn¡¯t give a damn about my well-being and instantly agreed. They only told me to have a meal with him. During the meal, that man kept persuading me to drink. My colleagues not only didn¡¯t help me out, but they also egged me on.¡±


    At this point, Tian Chu¡¯s face was filled with disgust. Yin Xun could even hear her gritting her teeth.


    Tian Chu took a sip of tea to calm the disgust in her heart before continuing, ¡°Everyone was persuading me. Even my good friend, whom I had always felt was on good terms with me, was taken in by the money. I just didn¡¯t know at that time. In order not to offend that rich man, I had to drink glass after glass.


    ¡°Fortunately, I almost never drink with others. Even the people around me don¡¯t know my true alcohol tolerance. After a few glasses of wine, I pretended to be drunk and went to the bathroom. I thought it would be over, but then¡­¡± Tian Chu clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth. ¡°That old man even followed me in! That was the female bathroom. I was afraid that the private bathroom there was no longer safe, so I went to the public washroom outside. Who¡¯d have thought that the old man would still follow me? When he walked in after me, he locked the door so no one outside could enter.


    ¡°I was washing my hands at that time. When I saw him enter, I immediately ran into the cubicle. Fortunately, we were in a five-star hotel, so the quality of the cubicle was very good. That old man tried to kick open the cubicle door with brute force but kept failing. I took advantage of this period to call my colleagues and ask them to save me, but I was shocked that they had all turned off their phones or did not answer. I even sent everyone a distress message, but no one answered.


    ¡°I was very flustered at that time. I only thought of asking my friends for help. I never considered calling the police¡­¡± At this point, Tian Chu¡¯s body was even trembling.


    Yin Xun sighed softly and sat beside her. She raised her hand and gently patted Tian Chu¡¯s shoulder twice to comfort her.


    Yin Xun had often heard about the dark side of the entertainment industry, but because she had never come into direct contact with it, she had never given it much attention.


    At this moment, when she heard Tian Chu talk about her encounter, her heart immediately ached. A beautiful girl without a special background was the easiest type to encounter misfortune.


    With Yin Xun¡¯s comfort, Tian Chu gradually calmed down.


    Tian Chu did not finish her story, but Yin Xun did not ask. Yin Xun felt that Tian Chu had the right to remain silent about what she experienced after that.


    The office room fell into silence. After Tian Chu regained her composure, she asked Yin Xun in surprise, ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to ask me what happened after that?¡±


    Yin Xun said softly, ¡°You have the right to decide whether to say it. I already know what I need to know.¡±


    ¡°After that, I went through a horrible time, but I also injured his precious parts.¡± Tian Chu looked at Yin Xun and smiled. ¡°After committing such a crime, the company naturally can¡¯t keep me. Although that old man was furious about it, he did not want to publicize such a thing, so he got someone to blacklist me. This is the real reason my contract was broken.¡±


    At this point, Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang. Yin Xun took it out and saw that it was a message from Mary.


    The content of the message was similar to what Tian Chu had said. At the end of the message, Mary said that Tian Chu was a very talented girl. It would be a pity to give her up. As long as she was given a good platform, she would definitely shine in the future. Mary was willing to vouch for her.


    Yin Xun felt exasperated. Did she look like someone who did not have an eye for talent?


    When Yin Xun read the message, Tian Chu slowly said, ¡°The person I provoked is Xing Guang, Old Master Xing. I think I have to say it. If you don¡¯t know, it might cause a lot of trouble in the future. I¡­¡±


    Clatter. When she heard Tian Chu say who it was, Yin Xun froze in shock. She did not grip her phone properly and it fell to the ground.


    Tian Chu thought that Yin Xun was frightened. As far as she knew, although the Yin family had a decent background, they were inferior to the Xing family in terms of social status.


    The Yin family was purely involved in doing business, while the Xing family was involved in more things..

    ¡°Although we have signed the contract, if this bothers you, we can terminate the contract at any time. I won¡¯t ask for any compensation.¡± Tian Chu bent down to help Yin Xun pick up the phone and put it back in Yin Xun¡¯s hand.


    ¡°You just said that you broke the contract¡­ Ah, you injured Xing Guang?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s lips slowly curved up. She finally came back to her senses and turned to stare at Tian Chu as she asked excitedly.


    Tian Chu was a little confused by Yin Xun¡¯s reaction. Why did it seem that Yin Xun¡¯s reaction was not fear, but rather¡­ happiness?


    Tian Chu nodded and did not say anything.


    Yin Xun was amused. She said rather happily, ¡°It¡¯s just a small matter. Why would I terminate the contract? I welcome all talented people here. By the way, what are you good at?¡¯


    After talking so much, Yin Xun had almost forgotten the most important thing.


    ¡®Yes, although my undergraduate major is photography and my previous job was as a model and actress, I¡¯m actually best at raising pets and writing manuscripts.¡± Tian Chu was at a loss because of Yin Xun¡¯s eccentric thinking.


    Was Yin Xun really not afraid of Xing Guang coming for revenge? Once Xing Guang found out she was developing a career here, she would bet that he would find trouble with the Yin family, given his petty personality.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid of the Xing family?¡± After thinking about it, Tian Chu decided to ask.


    Hearing her question, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that he¡¯s just an old man who¡¯s half-dead? What¡¯s there to be afraid of? He might drop day any day, so don¡¯t worry.


    ¡°Good at photography, raising pets, and writing manuscripts¡­¡± Yin Xun snapped her fingers. She knew how to arrange Tian Chu.


    After they were done chatting, Tian Chu asked Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, Lin Zhu is still outside. I will go and get him.¡±


    After obtaining Yin Xun¡¯s approval, Tian Chu walked out of the office and headed toward the corridor. She knew that Lin Zhu was just making up an excuse when he said he was going to the washroom. Even if he did go, it would not have taken this long.


    If there was no one there, he must be waiting in the corridor.


    Sure enough, when Tian Chu walked into the corridor, Lin Zhu was sitting on the stairs, puffing on a cigarette. When he saw Tian Chu, he immediately extinguished the cigarette and threw it into the trash can.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I suddenly thought of something just now, so I came here to smoke.¡± Lin Zhu was a little embarrassed. After throwing away the cigarette, he stuffed his hand into his pocket. However, he quickly took it out again as he felt it was impolite.


    Tian Chu looked at Lin Zhu, who looked at a loss for what to do, and had her interest piqued. A smile appeared on his lips, but when Lin Zhu looked at her, the smile instantly disappeared and turned into a cold expression.


    ¡°President Yin has something to tell you.¡± After Tian Chu finished speaking, she turned around and left. Her voice no longer sounded as disgusted as before, but it was still cold.


    ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Lin Zhu agreed and quickly followed her.


    Lin Zhu had only taken two steps when he suddenly stopped Tian Chu and asked, ¡°Miss Tian¡­ did I offend you in any way? I feel like you do not want me here.


    Tian Chu stopped in her tracks. She did not turn around or look back. She did not say anything for a moment.


    Lin Zhu saw her being silent and the atmosphere was a little awkward. He quickly explained, ¡°If it bothers you, I won¡¯t pry. I am just curious. Oh right, will President Yin get impatient? I should hurry over¡­¡±


    ¡°It has nothing to do with you.¡± Before Lin Zhu could finish speaking, Tian Chu suddenly interrupted him.


    ¡°Ah?¡± Lin Zhu did not understand what Tian Chu meant.


    Tian Chu took a deep breath and quickly exhaled before saying, ¡°1 said that this matter has nothing to do with you. I treat all men like this.¡± With that, she turned to look at Lin Zhu and revealed a meaningful smile. hate men.¡± With that, Tian Chu ignored Lin Zhu¡¯s reaction and left.


    Beside the corridor was an elevator used by ordinary employees. Tian Chu did not return to Yin Xun¡¯s office. Instead, she took the elevator and left.


    Lin Zhu only returned to his senses when the elevator returned to his floor and someone came out.


    He wanted to ask something else, but when he looked up, Tian Chu was already long gone. Filled with doubts, he went to Yin Xun¡¯s office.


    Yin Xun asked Lin Zhu a few more questions in detail. Lin Zhu¡¯s past experiences were quite tragic as well.


    As long as he could remember, Lin Zhu had never seen his mother. His father drank all day and rarely showed up at home. Even when he was at home, he would either hit or scold him. He essentially grew up with his grandmother. However, when his grandmother passed away during his high school years, his father did not care about him and almost forced him to drop out of school.


    Fortunately, his relatives were not bad people. Each branch of his family took turns to take care of Lin Zhu¡¯s meals and everyone paid for him to attend university..

    It was not easy for him to get into a good university. He also had to work part-time to earn money for his living expenses. Just as he thought that his life was finally getting better, he met a scammer.


    At that time, he had just come into contact with society and was very naive. The swindler used his name to borrow tens of thousands of yuan. He was already poor, so this made things worse. Because he could not pay back the money, there were debt collectors hounding him almost every day. They even came to his university to ask him to pay.


    Although tens of thousands of yuan was not a lot, it was a devastating blow to Lin Zhu, who had to pay for his tuition fees by working part-time. In the end, the pressure was too great and he was forced to drop out of school to work.


    When he finally paid off his debt, he no longer had the chance to go to school.


    After listening to his story, Yin Xun sighed. Mary really knew how to pick people. All of them were youths who had been beaten up by society. Each of them was more pitiful than the other.


    However, from a boss¡¯s point of view, this kind of employee had one advantage that was very beneficial to the company. They had gone through many hardships in society; now that they were given a potentially life-changing opportunity, they would definitely grasp it tightly without needing to be reminded.


    After talking with Lin Zhu, Yin Xun called over the remaining people one after another. After understanding their stories one by one, she already had a preliminary positioning of them in her mind.


    Mary was really reliable. These people were all good at a certain field. It would be great for them to become video bloggers in the future. Moreover, the fields they were good at were all different. As long as they were trained carefully, they would become outstanding stars in their field.


    Now that the funds were in place and the contract bloggers were here, the next step was to wait for Mi Jin to complete the website and enter the testing stage.


    Yin Xun took out her phone. Just as she found Mary¡¯s phone number and was about to call her, she received an incoming call from Mary.


    What a coincidence. Yin Xun smiled and answered the call.


    She had just picked up the call when Mary started to report her work situation. ¡°President Yin, I have just found a private investigator on my side. Other than the high cost, this company does not have any other shortcomings. They are very reliable. I have already given the photos to them.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s been hard on you.¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°Now that we¡¯re mostly ready, we can contact the advertisers. This time, we¡¯ll still do the same as we did with Xintao. We¡¯ll maximize publicity. In addition, look for a few celebrities who are popular now. Check their personal virtues. If you think there¡¯s no problem, contact their management company to discuss a collaboration.¡±


    Mary was shocked as she said, ¡°President Yin, you mean that we are looking for a celebrity to endorse us?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not an endorsement, it¡¯s a settlement.¡± Yin Xun opened the computer webpage and began to look for information about celebrities. As she searched, she explained, ¡°Shopping websites are a necessity these days. As long as we can satisfy the users, there¡¯s no need to worry about popularity. However, a short video website is different. It¡¯s only good for entertainment. If there are no famous people in the beginning, no matter how flashy our advertisements are, we may not get popular.


    ¡°Those celebrities have their own fanbases. As long as they use our website and post a video every few days, we can retain a lot of fans on our site. At the same time, we¡¯ll develop our own video bloggers and make videos to attract users. The fans of celebrities will only be against people who compete with their idols. The development direction of our short video bloggers will be different from the celebrities¡¯. There¡¯s no competition, so those fans will also be our target audience.¡±


    Mary said, ¡°1 understand, but President Yin, should we use Xintao¡¯s name to attract users? After all, Xintao is very popular.¡±


    Yin Xun quickly rejected that idea. ¡°No, not only Xintao¡¯s name, but we also have to try our best to avoid Xintao altogether. Don¡¯t get involved with Xintao when we promote the website. Just treat these two entities as if they¡¯re not from the same ownership. If someone finds out later, we¡¯ll admit it, of course. Anyway , we¡¯re not denying it now.¡±


    Puzzled, Mary asked, ¡°But why?¡±


    ¡°Xintao¡¯s current opponent is Blue Fox. We only need to guard against Si Fan.


    As for the short video website, our opponent is all other video software. However, because they are working with computers, there won¡¯t be any friction in the short term. However, smartphones are developing very quickly now, and they are getting more and more useful. People will definitely discover this business opportunity with phones, just like Blue Fox did. When the time comes, the short video website will still face a slew of competitors..¡±

    ¡°This matter is mainly to guard against Si Fan. If he finds out that these are all under my name, he will definitely join forces with the other companies to oppose us. Don¡¯t assume that Si Fan can¡¯t pull in partners now. Once those people find a common goal with him, they will form a team immediately.¡± Yin Xun said as she checked the information. She found a few celebrities that she felt were not bad and bookmarked their information. She planned to send it to Mary later.


    ¡°Indeed. Then I¡¯ll pay attention to this information,¡± Mary replied.


    ¡°I¡¯ll send you the list of celebrities that I have a good opinion of. See which one is suitable for you to work with,¡± Yin Xun said as she sent the document to Mary.


    These preparations would take some time. She had to take it one step at a time. She could not rush it.


    After giving Mary the task, Yin Xun stretched and looked at the time. It was already afternoon, and she had not even eaten lunch.


    However, there was still a task that she had yet to complete. Yin Xun rested for a few minutes before getting up and walking toward Yin Cheng¡¯s office.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s office door was closed. Yin Xun pushed it, but it did not open. Yin Cheng had locked it from the inside.


    She reached out to knock, but there was no response. Yin Xun saw that his assistant was not at the door, so she took out her phone and called Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng picked up instantly, but his tone did not sound too swell. ¡°Xun, what¡¯s wrong? Do you have something to say to Daddy?¡¯


    Yin Xun frowned. Judging from the speed at which Yin Cheng picked up the phone, he was clearly not sleeping. How could he not hear the knock on the door?


    ¡°Dad, where are you now?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    ¡°I¡¯m at the office. What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°Are you in the office? Your door is locked. Didn¡¯t you hear me knock?¡±


    Just as Yin Xun finished saying that, the door opened. Yin Cheng looked at Yin


    Xun with a dispirited expression and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t hear you. Come in.¡±


    Yin Xun followed Yin Cheng into the office. She looked around. Other than the messy documents on the table, there was nothing unusual.


    Yin Xun took a deep breath. She thought that Yin Cheng was having an affair in the office. Fortunately, that was not the case.


    ¡®What were you doing in there just now?¡± Yin Xun sat on the sofa and asked Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s face stiffened. Then, his face turned slightly red as he said, ¡°N -nothing. I accidentally dozed off just now. Recently, your mother has been pulling me to dance a lot. I¡¯m very tired.¡±


    He was stuttering. It was obvious that there was something wrong.


    Yin Xun narrowed her eyes and stared at Yin Cheng. She did not say a word, but her expression told Yin Cheng that she knew he was lying.


    ¡°By the way, why are you here? Did you encounter any difficulties?¡± Yin Cheng quickly changed the topic.


    ¡°Dad, there¡¯s only the two of us here. There¡¯s no one else. No one will know what we¡¯re talking about if we close the door. I noticed there was something wrong with you the last time I saw you. Tell me, I¡¯ll help you keep it a secret. I won¡¯t tell Mom. But if I find out myself, I can¡¯t guarantee that Mother won¡¯t know,¡± Yin Xun said rather threateningly.


    ¡°Child, why are you threatening your father? Why? Do you want to learn from your sister?¡¯ Yin Cheng raised his hand and gently slapped the back of Yin Xun¡¯s head, pretending to be angry.


    However, Yin Xun¡¯s expression was still serious. She said, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t compare me to that idiot Yin Mo. I¡¯m not like her, so you can¡¯t fool me. I know you have something on¡­¡±


    As he spoke, Yin Xun leaned closer to Yin Cheng and sniffed him like a puppy.


    After smelling him for a while, Yin Xun crossed her arms and looked at Yin Cheng coldly. ¡°Mother never uses rose-scented perfume. She doesn¡¯t like the smell. And this perfume is for ladies. Since it¡¯s not my mother¡­¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s tone changed and she said coldly, ¡°Tell me, which woman is it? What¡¯s the matter? Could it be that you also want to keep a mistress? No matter what you think, as long as I¡¯m around, this family will not have such a thing! ¡®


    Seeing that Yin Xun was genuinely angry, Yin Cheng knew that he could not hide it anymore. He took a deep breath and decided to confess.


    ¡°There is another woman¡­¡± Yin Cheng said slowly.


    ¡°As expected, you.


    Things were just as she thought. As she was about to lose her temper, Yin Cheng quickly explained, ¡°But it¡¯s not what you think. What kind of person do you think Daddy is? It¡¯s like this¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng began to talk about what had happened to him recently.


    He did not actually have a mistress. Instead, he was pressured by some woman to accept her love. That woman even said that she was willing to be his mistress for love.


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­¡± She did not realize that her father had such charm.


    ¡®Who is that woman? If you don¡¯t like her, you can just reject her, right?¡± Yin Xun asked..

 Chapter 266 - Chapter 266: Threatened By A Woman

    Chapter 266: Threatened By A Woman


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°This¡­ Actually¡­¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s face turned red. He felt that it was a little difficult for him to talk about this with his daughter. He stammered for a long time, but he could not say a complete sentence.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes exasperatedly and said, ¡°Dad, what did you do to make you so afraid? Could it be that your body has been sullied?¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Yin Cheng¡¯s body froze. Then, he chided, ¡°You¡¯re a child, young lady. Why are you speaking like you know everything? Am I such a person?¡¯


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng and nodded slightly.


    Yin Cheng, ¡±


    Yin Cheng felt that if he did not say anything, his eldest daughter might really tell Wu Li. She did not think the same way normal people did.


    If Wu Li found out about this, it would be over. The household would be in chaos in the future.


    Yin Cheng sighed and finally decided to tell Yin Xun everything. ¡°She was my university classmate, but I never paid much attention to her when I was in school. It was only when I went to the banquet the other day that she came to look for me. Only when she told me her name did I remember that I had such a classmate.


    ¡°She said that she had a crush on me when she was in school, but because of her family, she didn¡¯t have the courage to confess to me and could only keep it in her heart. Later, she saw that your mother and I were in a relationship. She felt that she couldn¡¯t compare to your mother, so she gave up. That latest time we met, she said that she finally had the courage to confess to me.¡±


    At this point, Yin Cheng let out a long sigh. I didn¡¯t expect her that she had a


    thing for me in school. We¡¯re already so old now, and my child is already an adult, but she still likes me.


    Yin Xun frowned. ¡°Is it because she confessed to you that you¡¯re so conflicted? Don¡¯t tell me you want to have an affair in your old age, or are you hesitating between my mother and that woman, and don¡¯t know who to choose?¡±


    ¡°Of course, I chose your mother! Is there a need to ask?¡± Yin Cheng quickly said. ¡°But I don¡¯t know what that woman has been through all these years. This place is a little messed up.¡± Yin Cheng pointed to the head.


    ¡°When she was in university, she was known to be an honest and sensible person. She was always alone and always maintained a smile when she spoke to others. Overall, she gave off a very comfortable feeling. When she was in school, your mother also knew her, but she had never properly spoken to her. When we met again back then, I kept feeling that her words and actions were quite extreme, as if she was agitated.¡±


    ¡°You mean she tried to hurt you?¡¯ Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°No,¡± Yin Cheng said.


    ¡°Since she isn¡¯t going to hurt you, that¡¯s easy.¡± Yin Xun crossed her arms and said coldly, ¡°Since you don¡¯t like her and you¡¯re not familiar with her, just reject her directly. You can do that and then stay away from her in the future. You haven¡¯t contacted her in years, which means that she doesn¡¯t know much about you at all. Just don¡¯t see her again in the future.¡±


    Yin Cheng smiled stiffly. After a long time, he said awkwardly, ¡®Il-I¡¯m afraid that won¡¯t do¡­¡±


    Yin Xun frowned and said, ¡°Dad, what¡¯s wrong with you? Why does it seem like you¡¯re hiding something? What¡¯s so problematic that you can¡¯t even tell me? We¡¯re family. If anything happens, I¡¯ll stand on your side. You and my mother are my family. I won¡¯t let you get hurt.¡±


    Seeing that his daughter was so protective of him, Yin Cheng felt a warmth in his heart. Indeed, the old saying was accurate. A daughter was like a little cotton -padded jacket for her parents.


    Under Yin Xun¡¯s constant questioning and assurance, Yin Cheng finally revealed the real reason for his dilemma.


    He had indeed been threatened by that woman.


    That day, he went to the banquet to expand his connections, so many people there were strangers. However, other than that woman, he saw two other old classmates. They had not seen each other for many years, so they chatted a little more.


    Although they did not have a close relationship in school, it had been many years since they last met. It was rare for them to get together, so after the banquet ended, they decided to go for a meal together.


    Something happened during the gathering.


    Yin Cheng never dreamed that his two old classmates would have plans to trick him.


    They ate together at the club. During the meal, the four of them chatted happily. Halfway through the meal, however, the two old classmates began to persuade him to drink.


    Yin Cheng originally refused, but he could not resist their constant persuasion, so he gave in a little and drank a few glasses. Unexpectedly, after just a few glasses, Yin Cheng began to feel dizzy.


    Even so, his classmates did not let up. They thought he was pretending to be drunk and urged him to drink more..

    ¡°In the end, I passed out. I don¡¯t remember anything after that. But when I woke up, Yin Cheng trailed off.


    However, Yin Xun had already roughly guessed it. She recalled how Yin Cheng had returned that day with a strong perfume smell on him. He must have had intimate contact with that woman.


    This time, Yin Xun did not speak. She just looked at Yin Cheng quietly.


    Yin Cheng felt as if he had done something unforgivable when she stared at him like that. His heart thumped nervously.


    After a moment of silence, Yin Cheng finally revealed the details.


    He said, ¡°After I fainted, I was moved to a bed in the cubicle. When I woke up, my clothes have been taken off and¡­ she¡­ ¡®


    ¡°I understand.¡± Before Yin Cheng could finish, Yin Xun cut across him.


    There was no need for Yin Cheng to continue. She could tell what had happened.


    That woman must have taken nude photos of them together to threaten Yin Cheng.


    On top of that, Yin Cheng had just said that Wu Li also knew that woman. In other words, if Yin Cheng rejected her too bluntly and angered her, she would also send the photos to Wu Li and destroy their relationship.


    It was hard to imagine someone would do such a thing at this old age.


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression slowly darkened. It seemed that the matter was much more serious than it sounded.


    ¡°So that¡¯s why you told me to be careful of the Zhou family the other day. This old classmate of yours is from the Zhou family,¡± Yin Xun said firmly.


    Yin Cheng nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. It¡¯s the CEO of the Zhou Family, Zhou Wen. Her family used to be rather poor, so she had an inferiority complex. I investigated her after the incident. It turned out that after she graduated, she married a 60-year-old man and even gave birth to his daughter to climb the social ladder. However, the two of them got divorced later on. She obtained a large amount of assets and used this money to start a business. After struggling for more than ten years, she developed Zhoujia into a famous newspaper in the industry.¡±


    Zhou Wen was the boss of a newspaper company. She often came into contact with news of celebrities, so she was no stranger to threatening people.


    Others usually did not dare to provoke someone of her status. One wrong move and they would fall into the vortex of public opinion.


    As for Yin Cheng, he was most worried that the Yin Corporation would be implicated, so he did not dare to fall out with that person.


    He was already so old. So what if others laughed at him? It was the company that could not afford to have any problems. It was the family business of the Yin family for several generations.


    ¡°Dad, leave this matter to me. Just do what you need to do as usual. I¡¯ll help you solve this problem,¡± Yin Xun said comfortingly.


    Yin Xun knew how much Yin Cheng loved Wu Li. Based on their interactions during this period of time and the persona she had seen in the original novel, Yin Cheng would never do something unfaithful.


    She would not hold back against someone who destroyed other people¡¯s families.


    Yin Cheng looked at his eldest daughter and felt extremely gratified. He did not doubt Yin Xun¡¯s ability at all. When he heard Yin Xun say that she would handle it, he nodded in agreement.


    However, there was one thing that Yin Cheng was worried about. ¡°Zhou Wen is strong at spreading rumors and filming scandals. If you oppose her, then


    Xintao¡­¡±


    Xintao was a shopping website. Being targeted by someone like that would be a nightmare. Once something went wrong, it would cause Yin Xun a lot of trouble.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I have my methods.¡± Yin Xun smiled mysteriously at Yin Cheng. ¡°By the way, why are you looking for me? Don¡¯t tell me you were here just for this?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    ¡°Of course not. I came here to discuss something with you. However, I sensed that your behavior was strange at the door just now, so I asked you what happened.¡± Yin Xun said as she walked to the table beside him. She opened her bag and took out two sets of documents.


    Yin Cheng smiled bitterly. ¡°You cheeky girl, I didn¡¯t expect you to be so meticulous. It seems that it¡¯s not easy to hide anything from you. Your husband will suffer in the future.¡±


    When she heard the mention of a husband, Fang Yao¡¯s figure suddenly appeared in Yin Xun ¡®s mind. He had protected her with his body. His figure was clearly injured, but he still comforted her softly. Although the surroundings were pitch- black, Yin Xun could imagine Fang Yao¡¯s expression at that time.


    Yin Cheng saw that Yin Xun was in a daze and raised his hand to pat Yin Xun¡¯s shoulder. He asked curiously, ¡°Xun, what¡¯s wrong? What are you thinking about? Your eyes are blank.¡±


    ¡°N -nothing¡­¡± Yin Xun quickly dispelled Fang Yao¡¯s figure from her mind and handed the information to Yin Cheng.. She asked, ¡°Why would you say that?¡±

 Chapter 268 - Chapter 268: Cant Hide Private Money

    Chapter 268: Can¡¯t Hide Private Money


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°My daughter is so smart and sharp. In the future, your husband will definitely not be able to hide his private savings.¡± At the mention of private savings, Yin Cheng revealed a resentful expression.


    Although he was the boss of the company, he still could not escape the fate of being controlled by his wife. All his salary would be passed over, and Wu Li would give him a fixed allowance every month. If he wanted to buy anything expensive, he had to report it in advance.


    As a man, how could he not have money on his hands? Therefore, he had argued with Wu Li and tried his best to save up some private money. In the end, he was discovered by Wu Li every time and his private stash was taken away.


    Yin Xun knew about Yin Cheng¡¯s secret stash. She immediately understood what Yin Cheng meant, and did not know whether to laugh or cry now. ¡°Dad, I¡¯m your daughter. You shouldn¡¯t be concerned for outsiders. Instead, you should stand on my side.


    After saying that, Yin Xun pointed at the information and said, ¡®This is Xintao¡¯s next development plan. Help me see where I need to improve. Oh right, the document below is about my new project. Help me take a look too.¡±


    ¡°How long has it been since Xintao started? You¡¯re already starting a new project?¡± Yin Cheng asked in surprise when he heard Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s expression suddenly turned serious. He looked at Yin Xun and said earnestly, ¡®Xun, it¡¯s not that I want to discourage you. I know your ability, so I can rest assured no matter what you want to do. But there¡¯s one thing to keep in mind¡ªyou can¡¯t be fickle in your business. You have to be down-to-earth and expand your career step by step. Don¡¯t say that I¡¯m long-winded. This is all from my experience.


    ¡°How long has it been since Xintao started? It¡¯s still in the testing stage. It hasn¡¯t reached the point where it can be used for all phones yet. There are also many other problems. I know you won the first battle with Blue Fox, but it¡¯s not for nothing that Blue Fox has been able to thrive for so many years. If you don¡¯t take good care of Xintao now, you¡¯ll be stabbed in the back by Si Fan sooner or later.¡¯


    There were no flawless people in the business world. Everyone fought for their own interests. Once their interests clashed, no matter how close they were, people would fall out.


    ¡°You can wait for Xintao to stabilize before considering other projects. When the time comes, your capital flow will be much easier,¡± Yin Cheng added.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Dad, take a look at the proposal first. I came here to ask you about business.¡±


    Yin Cheng nodded. It was rare for Yin Xun to seek his help. Now that he finally had this opportunity, he had to grasp it well.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve been in the business world for so many years. This is just a small problem. I¡¯ll teach you what to do after I¡¯m done reading it!¡± Yin Cheng patted his chest and promised Yin Xun.


    ¡°I¡¯m relieved.¡± Yin Xun smiled and poured a cup of tea for Yin Cheng and herself.


    Yin Cheng continued, ¡°l can help you, but you have to promise me one thing.¡±


    ¡®What?¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng in confusion. Could it be that Yin Cheng wanted dividends? This was a simple matter. She would pay anyone who helped her, no matter who it was.


    However, it was not money that Yin Cheng wanted. He sighed and said in a


    half-threatening, half-pleading tone, ¡°You can¡¯t tell anyone about my situation!¡¯


    Although he was not a big shot, the business circle was only so big. Once someone found out, the news would quickly spread. He was not worried about his reputation, but he was worried that Wu Li would hear it. Given Wu Li¡¯s personality¡­ Thinking of this, Yin Cheng could not help but shiver.


    Hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s request, Yin Xun readily agreed. ¡°Okay.¡±


    In order to regain some dignity in front of his daughter, Yin Cheng took it very seriously.


    He had to help Yin Xun come up with a perfect plan and let her see how great her father was. It was just an accident that she saw his embarrassed look just now.


    However, although he had this in mind, the more Yin Cheng looked at the proposal, the more he felt that something was wrong. His expression became more and more serious. In the end, his brows were almost knitted together. After reading all the content, he suddenly fell silent. He looked up at Yin Xun and then at the document in his hand, his face filled with disbelief.


    Yin Xun was shocked by his expression. She thought that her plan had a huge flaw and quickly asked, ¡°Dad, tell me if there¡¯s a problem. I¡¯m not afraid of criticism.¡±


    However, Yin Cheng did not point out the problem.. Instead, he asked Yin Xun,


    ¡°Are these all projects you want to develop? Did you think of them alone?¡±

    Chapter 269: Is She My Biological Child?


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s not like I did it alone. My employees have also contributed a lot,¡± Yin Xun said.


    There was no problem with saying that. Although she had thought of the plan herself, the ones who carried it out were all employees. They were the ones who worked the hardest.


    ¡°The first step is to have Xintao open for shopping. The second step is to create your own express delivery¡ªXintao Express. The third step is to establish a short video website and train bloggers¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng summarized Yin Xun¡¯s plans. In short, she was preparing something very novel¡ªYin Cheng had never thought of this before.


    This was already considered a cross-industry move. Yin Cheng knew very well how difficult it was to delve into a new industry.


    The entertainment industry was a good place to make money. In the past, he had invested in a television drama and hoped to earn some money with the popularity. In the end, right as the filming was over and the drama was about to be released, the main actor was arrested for drug usage.


    Taking drugs was a rather serious crime. Even though the actor was released in the end, he could no longer appear on public platforms. This television drama was scrapped and he lost a lot of money.


    Sometime later, Yin Cheng tried trading in gold. In the end, he somehow bought a large amount of gold when the price was at its peak Afterward, the value kept falling and he lost a lot more money.


    Yin Cheng was considered a big shot in the real estate industry, but it was difficult for him to cross into other industries. He did not know if it was bad luck or because he did not have the sense for it, but he had never succeeded.


    The promise he made to Yin Xun felt like a slap to his face now. He had promised to guide Yin Xun, but he did not understand anything. There were some things that he did not even know about!


    Yin Cheng organized the documents and handed them back to Yin Xun respectfully.


    Yin Xun did not understand and asked in confusion, ¡°Dad, what¡¯s this? Weren¡¯t you going to give me advice?¡±


    ¡°I take back what I said.¡± Yin Cheng patted Yin Xun¡¯s shoulder and said, ¡°Xun, you should look for your partner, Fang Yao, more often. He has a big business and is involved in various fields. It¡¯s definitely not a bad idea for you to ask him to teach you. Besides, I think the two of you are having a good time together. I can feel reassured if I hand you over to him.¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s words had a double meaning. Alas, Yin Xun did not catch the hint.


    As he spoke, Yin Cheng was still staring at Yin Xun. Yin Xun felt his hairs stand on end. She felt that Yin Cheng¡¯s gaze was a little strange.


    Then, she heard Yin Cheng mutter to himself, ¡°She looks quite similar to me, but isn¡¯t she a little too smart? Could it be that our Yin bloodline has produced a business prodigy? She even came up with the framework for a business empire¡­¡±


    When Yin Xun heard Yin Cheng¡¯s whispered words, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. ¡°Dad!¡±


    ¡°Between you and Yin MO, there must have been a mix-up when you two were born. That¡¯s why the difference is so big,¡± Yin Cheng mumbled in a defeated tone. ¡°In the future, I¡¯ll still need your guidance. Anyway, I don¡¯t have anything


    I can help you with¡­¡±


    Yin Cheng was about to say that the only thing he could help with was money, but he suddenly remembered that the investor Yin Xun found was the Fang family¡¯s young master. The Fang family¡¯s businesses occupied almost half of the country and had good development overseas. He was instantly discouraged.


    He reflected sadly that he could not help his daughter at all.


    Suddenly, Yin Cheng thought of something, and his eyes lit up. He looked at Yin Xun expectantly and said, ¡°Xun, since you¡¯re already so mature now, shouldn¡¯t you take over the Yin Corporation?¡¯


    ¡®What?¡± Yin Xun was surprised.


    ¡°Kid, why are you sometimes so smart, but sometimes so clueless?¡± Yin Cheng said exasperatedly. ¡°You¡¯re grown up and I¡¯m old¡ªyou can inherit the Yin Corporation. Daddy can retire in peace with your mother. It just so happens that we always wanted to travel, so this is a chance for us.¡±


    ¡°Alright, Dad, stop joking. I¡¯m being serious here,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly.


    ¡°I¡¯m not joking. Anyway, this is all our family has. How you split it with your siblings is up to you. This is your compensation for helping manage the company. How about it?¡± Yin Cheng said coaxingly.


    Yin Xun refused the offer. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t think that I don¡¯t know your plans. Don¡¯t leave all the mess to me! You should feel at ease being the CEO. After all, you still have a daughter and two sons to raise.¡±


    Two sons? Just as Yin Cheng was about to retort, he suddenly thought of Si Fan. He still could not fathom what kind of bewitching potion Si Fan had given Yin MO to be so loyal to him.


    It was fine if they were just dating, but Yin MO was even willing to invest in Si Fan¡¯s work. That money was like meat being thrown to the dogs. It would never return..

 Chapter 270 - Chapter 270: Two Sons

    Chapter 270: Two Sons


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    There was Yin MO, Si Fan, and Yin Rui-¡ªwho only knew how to play games. Indeed, he had a daughter and two sons to support.


    This was indeed a mess. Yin Xun was not wrong. However, the way she said it so bluntly hurt Yin Cheng¡¯s old heart.


    After that, Yin Cheng did not mention this matter again.


    Since Yin Cheng could not give Yin Xun any advice, Yin Xun talked to him about constructing a building.


    Yin Xun wanted to build two buildings and connect them with a corridor in the middle. This way, they could enter from there and communicate with each other without leaving the company building.


    The only problem now was the choice of location. However, Yin Cheng said that preliminary investigation work was very important. They had to make sure that there were no problems before they could construct the building. This could not be rushed. It was easy to make mistakes.


    Yin Xun had no choice but to wait.


    The two of them talked about the follow-up work of building construction for a while. Before they knew it, it was time to get off work.


    ¡°Are you going home with Daddy today?¡± Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun expectantly.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Let¡¯s go back I happen to have something to discuss with Yin


    Rui.¡±


    Before leaving the office, Yin Cheng frowned and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Xun, I have something to discuss with you too.¡±


    ¡°Is it Zhou Wen? Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t tell Mother, but if she finds out herself, there¡¯s nothing I can do.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not that.¡± Yin Cheng sighed and said, ¡°If you get your mother gifts in the future, can you please not buy these kinds of exercise items? Recently, she has been bugging me to dance every day. I¡¯m already at such an old age, and I still have to work. How can I withstand this kind of torture?¡±


    So that was the reason. Yin Xun smiled.


    She looked at Yin Cheng and said, ¡°Dad, haven¡¯t you noticed that you¡¯re getting more and more energetic recently?¡¯ Yin Xun crossed her arms and put a hand on her chin. She sized up Yin Cheng and continued, ¡®You¡¯re looking younger and more handsome than before. Indeed, exercise makes people look bad. Not bad. No wonder Zhou Wen went crazy when she saw you.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun left.


    Yin Cheng originally thought that Yin Xun was sincerely praising him. He was secretly happy, thinking that dancing was useful and that he should persevere in the future. Then he heard the mention of Zhou Wen.


    Yin Cheng immediately knew that Yin Xun was lying to him. After all, the first time he met Zhou Wen was before Yin Xun had given Wu Li the gift!


    ¡°This brat is getting more and more mischievous. Now, she¡¯s even joking about her father!¡± Yin Cheng cursed and quickly walked out.


    Yin Xun and Yin Cheng chatted and laughed as they returned to the Yin family villa. However, the moment Yin Xun entered the house, the smile on her face instantly disappeared¡ªshe did not expect Yin MO to be back as well. She was sitting alone on the sofa in the living room, looking rather restrained. When she saw Yin Xun, a strange expression appeared on her face.


    ¡°Sister, why are you back?¡± Yin MO quickly greeted Yin Xun.


    ¡®Why?¡± Yin Xun said coldly. ¡°Is this not my home? Can¡¯t I come back?¡±


    ¡°Of course it is. Don¡¯t be angry, Sister. I didn¡¯t mean anything. I was just asking. ¡°Then, Yin MO looked at Yin Cheng, who was standing behind Yin Xun, and said, ¡°Dad, I came home to look for you. Can I talk to you alone?¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun and laughed. ¡°MO ¡®er, your sister is not an outsider. What is it that your sister can¡¯t hear?¡±


    With one look at her, Yin Xun and Yin Cheng could guess why Yin MO had returned.


    Yin MO saw that Yin Cheng would not talk to her alone. She bit her lip lightly as if she was mentally preparing herself. After a while, she said, ¡°Dad, please help Fan!¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly. It was as she expected¡ªYin MO came for Si Fan. She was curious to see what tricks Yin MO had planned.


    Yin Xun walked to the sofa furthest away from Yin MO and sat down. She looked at Yin MO and Yin Cheng coolly.


    Yin Cheng sighed. ¡®Mo¡¯er, I know why you came back. But you have to understand that you and Si Fan are not married yet. Your real family now is your sister, Yin Xun. Her shopping platform had just gotten on the right track, but there are still many unstable factors for her to deal with. She is already in a difficult position, and Si Fan is opposing her in every way. If you asked me to help Si Fan, wouldn¡¯t that be the same as opposing my own daughter?¡¯


    ¡°But Fan is my boyfriend. Once we get married, we¡¯ll be family. Besides, Fan said that as long as my sister agrees to merge Xintao into Blue Fox, he will let go of their past quarrels and let her be the vice president. He won¡¯t mistreat my sister!¡± Yin MO insisted.


    He did not expect Yin Mo to say something like this.. Yin Cheng frowned and asked, ¡± Did Si Fan ask you to say this?¡±

 Chapter 271 - Chapter 271: Underground Romance

    Chapter 271: Underground Romance


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Mo bit her lip lightly and said, ¡°No, this is what I want to say. Fan and I will definitely get married in the end, so I¡¯m not lying. Besides, my sister hurt Fan in the past many times and sent him to prison. Now, she even established a company just to oppose Fan everywhere. Fan is being very kind not to hold a grudge against Sister.¡±


    ¡°Furthermore, he also knows that my sister likes that programmer called Mi Jin from her company. He said that for my sister¡¯s sake, he will no longer pursue Mi Jin for his past actions. As long as Sister agrees to merge Xintao with Blue Fox, not only will he give her the position of vice president, but he will also let Mi Jin continue to be in charge of the main program of the website. If


    Sister has any other requests, as long as it¡¯s not overboard, it can be discussed.


    ¡°Both of us are very supportive of my sister and Mi Jin being together, so there¡¯s no need for them to have an underground relationship. We¡¯re family.


    Fan won¡¯t hold a grudge against his family members.¡±


    Yin MO finished her sentence in one breath and looked at Yin Cheng.


    ¡®What? Who? Mi Jin? Xintao¡¯s programmer? Xun and he are having an underground relationship?¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s attention was completely latched to this information of Yin Xun¡¯s relationship and he did not pay attention to the rest of the sentence.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun in shock and said, ¡°Xun, what¡¯s going on? Are you really in a relationship? I thought you were dating that kid from the Fang family.¡±


    Yin MO said that Mi Jin was a programmer. Although Yin Cheng did not usually discriminate against a person¡¯s identity, he felt that an ordinary programmer was not worthy of his daughter.


    His daughter was so smart. She was already so successful in her first business venture. In the future, she would establish her own business empire. Only a powerhouse could be worthy of her. Even Fang Yao was not fully qualified, but he was much better than this Mi Jin.


    After all, a father always felt that his daughter was the best. That was why he reacted so strongly.


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°Dad, just believe whatever she says. Have you forgotten how she pushed me to be with Xing Cheng back then?¡±


    Yin MO looked at Yin Xun sadly and said, ¡°Sister, I wasn¡¯t pushing you. You clearly had a thing for Xing Cheng in your heart, but you were embarrassed to say it. Fan and I can help you. Xing Cheng is also our good friend. If you¡¯re with him, we will all be even closer.¡±


    Not again. Yin Xun rolled her eyes impatiently.


    ¡°Fool, you¡¯re totally an item with Si Fan.¡± She would not communicate with an idiot, so Yin Xun turned around to eat some fruits and ignored Yin Mo.


    Yin MO had been lashed out by Yin Xun again and even got Si Fan caught in the mix. Yin MO said to Yin Cheng aggrievedly, ¡°Father, look at Sister. Fan has already made such a nice concession for her, yet she still bad-mouths him!¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s heart trembled when he heard Yin MO address him. He could tell that Yin MO would not come to see him for no reason. As long as she was home, she must have something in mind, and it was always related to Si Fan.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯ve told you that your sister is our family. We can¡¯t help someone oppose your sister. Moreover, if Si Fan does what you¡¯re saying, he will be burning a lot of money. It¡¯s fine if he makes a profit in the end, but if he loses out, we will lose everything.¡± Yin Cheng frowned and warned Yin MO sternly.


    Yin Mo thought that Yin Cheng was biased. ¡°Dad, you¡¯ve already invested in Sister. Why don¡¯t you invest in Fan? We¡¯re family too¡ªFan and I are family.


    What¡¯s his is mine too. Can you just treat it as an investment for me?¡±


    ¡°No.¡± Yin Cheng still refused. ¡°That¡¯s not the same thing at all. Moreover, you¡¯re not even engaged yet. How did you be family? Even a husband and wife can get divorced. You¡¯re just dating. What if you break up in the future?¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡±


    ¡°No buts. Daddy will never agree to this request!¡± Yin Cheng refused to budge no matter what Yin MO said.


    Yin MO begged for a long time, but when she saw that Yin Cheng still refused, her eyes turned red and she was about to cry.


    Yin MO was clearly anxious now. She stomped her feet a few times and began to run her mouth without thinking. ¡°Fan was right. You¡¯re biased toward Sister! When Sister asked you to invest in her, you handed over the money without saying a word. But when I came to look for you, you only know how to reject me!¡±


    Fan, Fan. Whenever Yin MO opened her mouth, it was always Si Fan. Yin Cheng¡¯s temper rose as well. He cursed in his heart. What exactly did Si Fan say to Yin MO to make his obedient and gentle daughter become like this?


    ¡®What exactly did Si Fan tell you?¡± Yin Cheng asked unhappily..

 Chapter 272 - Chapter 272: Splitting The Family Assets

    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°I¡­¡± Yin MO had just said one word when she suddenly paused. She looked at her phone and said to Yin Cheng, ¡°I¡¯m going to the washroom.¡± After saying that, she trotted away.


    ¡°What happened all of a sudden?¡± Yin Cheng asked in confusion.


    Yin Xun peeled off the strawberry leaf and took a bite. ¡°Dad, you know what I think? She must have gone to the washroom to call Si Fan. When she comes out later, she¡¯ll have another excuse to persuade you.¡±


    She did not know if Yin Cheng believed him or not, but he did not say anything. Yin Cheng walked to the sofa opposite Yin Xun and sat down. He also ate strawberries with Yin Xun.


    At this moment, Wu Li walked out from the kitchen where she was cooking. She looked at Yin Xun and Yin Cheng and asked curiously, ¡°I¡¯ve been listening to the two of you arguing since just now. You distracted me so much that I mixed up the salt and sugar. What exactly are you arguing about?¡¯


    Wu Li looked around and asked Yin Cheng, ¡°Where¡¯s Mo¡¯er? Didn¡¯t she say she was looking for you?¡±


    ¡°Mo¡¯er went to conspire with that brat. She really makes me worry.¡± Yin Cheng signaled to Wu Li that it was nothing serious and told her to go and cook.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er is too innocent. It¡¯s inevitable that she will be deceived. As her father, you have to teach her more. Otherwise, if she goes astray in the future, it will be your responsibility!¡± Wu Li raised her spoon and threatened Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng stood up with a smile and gently pushed Wu Li into the kitchen. ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about this. Leave it to us. Go and continue cooking. Ifyou don¡¯t want to cook anymore, leave it to the chef.¡±


    ¡°Hubby, you¡¯re so thoughtful¡­¡± Wu Li stood on her tiptoes and kissed Yin Cheng lightly. Then, she turned around and ran into the kitchen, closing the door behind her.


    Looking at this loving old couple, Yin Xun felt very gratified. However, at the same time, she thought of the woman who pestered Yin Cheng, and her smile instantly sank.


    She could not let such a person destroy her family. Regardless of whether that woman was sincere to Yin Cheng or not, she would not show mercy.


    Taking out her phone, Yin Xun sent a message to Mi Jin. She had to get rid of this scourge as soon as possible.


    Yin MO stayed in the bathroom for a long time. Yin Xun and Yin Cheng were about to finish the strawberries on the fruit platter when Yin MO slowly walked out.


    ¡°Dad¡­ Yin MO slowly walked in front of Yin Cheng. Her big watery eyes stared at Yin Cheng innocently like a little rabbit, but she only called him once and then fell silent.


    Yin Mo¡¯s expression was awkward as if she was a little embarrassed to speak.


    However, she said nothing and Yin Cheng did not ask either. He pretended not to hear her and continued eating the strawberries.


    Yin Xun gave Yin Cheng a look, indicating that she was about to begin.


    Sure enough, Yin MO hesitated for only a moment. Seeing that Yin Cheng had no intention of saying anything, she finally said, ¡°Dad, since the Yin family¡¯s assets are going to be inherited by the three of us in the end, could¡­ could you give my share in advance?¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s body stiffened. He lost grip on the strawberry and it fell to the ground.


    Aside from Yin Cheng, even Yin Xun looked at Yin MO in disbelief. What did she just hear? Yin MO was talking about the family assets?


    Seeing that Yin Cheng was staring at her with a dark expression, Yin MO knew that her request was overboard. After she said the words, she lowered her head and did not dare to look Yin Cheng in the eye.


    ¡°Are you saying that we should split the family assets now?¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s voice was like a cold wind in the middle of winter.


    Yin Cheng had never been so disappointed. He was still alive and well, but his daughter, who he doted on so much, actually said that she wanted to split the family assets now!


    He had imagined countless possibilities from Yin MO, such as wheedling, making a scene, or asking to borrow money. He just did not expect Yin MO to say ask for a share of the family assets.


    ¡°I¡¯m not asking to further divide the family assets, I just want to take my share first. In any case, you¡¯ll be giving it to us sooner or later. If you give it to us earlier, we can use it earlier, right?¡± Yin MO lowered her head and said weakly.


    Yin Cheng frowned. ¡°Did Si Fan teach you this too?¡¯


    ¡°No! No! He just hoped that you could help us, but he didn¡¯t tell me what to do¡­¡± When she heard Si Fan¡¯s name being raised again, Yin MO raised her head and stopped looking at the ground.


    However, when she recalled what Si Fan had told her on the phone when she was in the bathroom, her face turned red and her voice trailed off.


    Yin Xun sneered and said coldly, ¡®Yin MO, Dad and Mom aren¡¯t so old that they have to hand over the family property already. Since they¡¯re in good health, they can easily work for another 20 to 30 years.. If you want your share of the family assets now, why should they give it to you?¡±

 Chapter 273 - Chapter 273: Do More Charity

    Chapter 273: Do More Charity


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    When Yin Cheng heard Yin Xun say that he still had to work for another 20 to 30 years, he immediately wanted to say no. His plan was still to find a good opportunity to hand the company to Yin Xun in the next few years.


    Wait another 20 to 30 years? How ridiculous. He still wanted to travel with his wife. He did not want to be tied up with the company for the rest of his life.


    However, he could not say this now. He could only complain in his heart. He planned to find a time to tell Yin Xun about this.


    He was very confident in his daughter, Yin Xun. He believed that if the company was handed over to Yin Xun to manage, she would still do her job properly even after the assets were divided.


    However, Yin MO did not feel this way. When she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, she immediately piped up, ¡°Sister, if you won¡¯t split the family assets among the three of us, should we just give them to outsiders? Or do you want to monopolize them yourself? You can¡¯t be like this. We have to consider others more¡­¡±


    Yin Xun sneered and said, ¡°Alright, since you¡¯re so kind, then you should think about me more. How about you give up your share and leave them to me as an investment to help my company? Or donate it to the children in the impoverished villages? That¡¯s wonderful. That amount of wealth can save many children who can¡¯t afford to go to school. They¡¯ll be grateful to you.¡±


    ¡°But, but¡­ I also need that money¡­¡± Yin MO was anxious.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. You asked for that money for yourself, but didn¡¯t you say that you have to consider others more? It¡¯s not right for you to spend money on yourself. You should donate the money to someone who needs it more,¡± Yin Xun said.


    ¡°But ifwe give it to someone else, how will Fan and I manage? We¡¯re already short of funds! Yin MO retorted.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes. ¡°Look, you can¡¯t even think for others. Why should others think for you? Dad and Mom have the right to decide how their assets are distributed. You don¡¯t have the right to ask them now.¡±


    Yin MO was rendered speechless by Yin Xun¡¯s retort and did not know how to continue.


    Yin Cheng secretly gave Yin Xun a thumbs up. He knew Yin MO well. As long as Si Fan said something, she would follow it no matter what. He did not want to say too harsh words to his daughter. Although Yin MO could be infuriating, she was still his precious daughter.


    He did not agree to split the assets now, but it was true that he invested in Yin Xun¡¯s company. He gave money to Yin Xun, but he did not give it to Yin Mo.


    From the looks of it, he was indeed biased. Even if he was actually worried that Yin Mo would be cheated by Si Fan, this was not helpful. To Yin MO, her father was just not giving her money


    Hence, he could not say such things. However, Yin Xun was in a different position. Yin Xun was the elder sister. It was fine for her to say such things.


    ¡®You, you guys¡­¡± Yin MO was so anxious that her face turned red. She opened her mouth but did not know how to continue.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s stance was very clear. He did not want to help her. Even Yin Xun was fanning the flames.


    She stammered a few times but could not find the words to continue. Yin MO was so anxious that she started crying.


    She had always looked like a delicate little flower. Now that she was crying, she looked so fragile that she could collapse at any moment.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, this is¡­¡± When Yin Cheng saw his daughter like this, his heart ached. He wanted to persuade Yin MO again, but Yin MO interrupted him.


    ¡®You guys are so biased. Sister is deliberately suppressing me because she saw how outstanding my boyfriend is! Since you guys don¡¯t want to help, I¡¯ll think of a way myself!¡± With that, Yin MO covered her mouth and sobbed as she rushed out.


    She ran to the door and pushed it open. Unexpectedly, she bumped into Yin Rui, who had just returned from outside.


    ¡°Second Sister, what happened to you?¡¯ Yin Rui saw that Yin MO was crying horribly and was shocked.


    ¡°Yin Rui, Dad is playing favorites. He wants to give all his wealth to Sister. We don¡¯t even have a say. We won¡¯t get anything!¡± Yin MO ran away after saying that.


    Yin Rui was stunned when he heard about the family wealth being split.


    ¡°Dad, what¡¯s wrong? Are you so ill that you can¡¯t manage the company anymore? Do you plan to split the assets now?¡± Yin Rui walked into the house and asked Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng glared at him angrily and asked, ¡°Brat, what are you talking about? How dare you curse your father! Where were you? You haven¡¯t been home for the past few days. ¡®


    Yin Rui chuckled and said, ¡°My college entrance examination coming soon, isn¡¯t it? I went to my classmate¡¯s house. We did some questions together. He¡¯s a good student who can tutor me. I just came back a little later than expected¡±


    After saying that, he turned around and gestured at the bag on his back. It looked heavy and contained a lot of books. Yin Cheng believed that he had been studying.


    However, Yin Xun only looked at Yin Rui with a faint smile and did not say a word..

    Yin Rui noticed that Yin Xun was looking at him. It was as if she had seen through his thoughts. Yin Rui immediately became nervous and quickly said, ¡°I¡¯ll go back to my room first.¡±


    Just as he was about to leave, Wu Li came out from the kitchen. She called out to everyone, ¡°It¡¯s time to eat. Hey, where¡¯s Mo¡¯er?¡±


    Yin Cheng said, ¡°Mo¡¯er left.¡±


    When Wu Li heard that Yin MO had left, she only gave a faint response. After that, she called everyone to the dining room.


    Yin Rui said that he had already eaten at his classmate¡¯s house, so he did not want to eat anymore and went straight back to his room.


    Yin Cheng tried to call out to him, but he was stopped by Yin Xun. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry about him. He¡¯ll look for food when he¡¯s hungry. He¡¯s not a child.¡±


    Wu Li rarely cooked. She would only cook when the children were home.


    The servants brought the dishes to the table. When Wu Li passed by Yin Xun, Yin Xun smelled a familiar and annoying smell. She frowned and approached Wu Li to sniff it. Wu Li was amused by Yin Xun¡¯s actions.


    She smiled and said, ¡°Xun, why are you suddenly acting like a puppy? Does


    Mommy¡¯s perfume today smells good?¡¯


    Yin Xun asked in confusion, ¡°Mom, didn¡¯t you say that you don¡¯t like rose-scented perfume? Why are you using it now?¡¯


    The tips of Wu Li¡¯s ears were slightly red. She glanced at her and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know what good things have happened to your father recently. He keeps giving me things, and they¡¯re all limited edition. That time when you came back, I smelled rose perfume on him and confronted him about it. He stammered and wouldn¡¯t say anything.


    ¡°At that time, I thought that he had done something disappointing, so I forced him to sleep in the study. To my surprise, two days later, he got someone to send me an international limited-edition perfume. It turned out that he was testing the perfume that day and wanted to give me a gift. I had misunderstood him.¡±


    Wu Li was in such a good mood that her eyes curved into crescents. Her entire body was radiating happiness.


    Yin Xun immediately looked at Yin Cheng and raised a hand to block Wu Li¡¯s line of sight. She mouthed at him, ¡°Dad, you¡¯re so smart. Mom even bought your words.¡±


    Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at Yin Xun and gestured blocking her mouth. ¡°Don¡¯t say anything. If you do, I¡¯ll withdraw my investment!¡±


    Wu Li saw their interaction, but she did not know what was going on. She asked curiously, ¡®What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°N -nothing. It¡¯s just that the scent is very compatible with you.¡± Yin Cheng¡¯s hands were trembling but he still tried his best to maintain his composure.


    ¡°Mom, you have to talk to my dad about this. He knows that you don¡¯t like rose-scented perfume, but he still gave it to you anyway. No matter how expensive it is, he should choose something that you like.¡± As she spoke, Yin Xun deliberately looked at Yin Cheng provocatively.


    She would not tell Wu Li about Yin Cheng¡¯s matter, but that did not mean that she was happy about it. She had to advise Wu Li and scare Yin Cheng at the same time.


    ¡°Your father is a man. How would he know about cosmetics? Any gift from him is good as long as you can appreciate it. Besides, this perfume smells pretty good. I quite like it.¡± Despite Yin Cheng¡¯s abnormal behavior, Wu Li did not suspect anything at all.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Yin Xun complained in her heart. Wu Li failed to see through such an obvious excuse and thought that Yin Cheng was really giving her a gift. No wonder Yin MO had a ditzy and love-addled brain. She must have inherited it from here. However, Yin Mols condition was more serious than Wu Li¡¯s. It was a magnified version.


    Although Yin Cheng did not have an improper relationship with that woman, Wu Li would still start a war if she saw the photos.


    Yin Cheng hid everything from Wu Li because he was afraid of being misunderstood.


    However, when she saw Wu Li¡¯s happy expression, Yin Xun frowned deeply. If they did not resolve this matter quickly, that person might come looking for


    Wu Li in the future,


    While she was deep in thought, her phone suddenly rang. Yin Xun picked it up and saw that it was a call from Tan Ai. Something serious must have happened for the bodyguard to call her. Otherwise, they would not call her casually. The bodyguard was a professional.


    Yin Xun gestured for Wu Li that she wanted to receive the call in private. She only answered the call when she walked out of the villa. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°President Yin, Liu Ying suddenly came over. She said that you allowed her to come in and cook. Is that true?¡± Tan Ai¡¯s tone did not waver at all. She was as cold as a robot.


    Hearing her words, Yin Xun could visualize Tan Ai¡¯s cold and serious expression clearly..

 Chapter 275 - Chapter 275: Sister Will Take Care Of You

    Chapter 275: Sister Will Take Care Of You


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°That¡¯s correct. Let her in as long as she doesn¡¯t enter my bedroom or study. She can go anywhere else,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    ¡°Understood,¡± Tan Ai said and hung up.


    Yin Xun returned to the villa. She thought about it and eventually decided to ask Yin Rui something while her parents were eating.


    She went straight to Yin Rui¡¯s room. Just as she was about to knock on the door, she suddenly heard Yin Rui talking.


    The soundproofing in the room was fairly decent. Since she could hear it from outside, it meant that Yin Rui was shouting right now. Nevertheless, she could not hear exactly what he was saying.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and raised a hand to knock on the door twice. Right after that, there was no sound from the room.


    A few seconds later, Yin Rui opened the door.


    ¡°Hehe, Big Sister, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Rui used his body to block the gap in the door and prevented her from going in.


    Right now, Yin Rui¡¯s face was slightly red and there was a faint smell of alcohol on his body.


    Yin Rui asked coldly, ¡°Have you been drinking?¡±


    ¡°No! How could l? My friends drank a little, though. I might have caught the smell when I was with them.¡± Yin Rui immediately straightened up and explained.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at Yin Rui in disdain and said, ¡°Do you think I don¡¯t have a nose? You reek of alcohol when you open your mouth. How can you claim you didn¡¯t drink?¡±


    Yin Rui immediately raised a hand to cover his mouth, but Yin Xun had already caught the smell. It was too late.


    Yin Xun recalled the message Mary had sent to her before she came back. The information on those people was very easy to check. In a short while, she had dug them up.


    Yin Cheng did not let Yin Rui go to a prestigious school. Instead, he went to a boarding school. The place was strict and old-fashioned; it was a good choice to train Yin Rui. Because of that, Yin Rui usually stayed on campus and only came back during the holidays.


    Although it was not a grand school, due to the special management involved, the tuition fees were not inferior to a noble school.


    The people he was with were indeed Yin Rui¡¯s classmates. A few years ago, their families were poor and it was very difficult for them to go to an ordinary school. Later, their families somehow received a large sum of money and they all became very close.


    Once they secured money and the required grades, they all went to Yin Rui¡¯s high school.


    Coincidentally, they were also in the same class as Yin Rui.


    From the moment those people encountered Yin Rui, they had been intentionally approaching him.


    They slowly interacted with Yin Rui and gained his trust bit by bit. At first, they were just ordinary classmates, but later on, they became close pals.


    Everything seemed so coincidental. If it happened to anyone else, there would be not much to think about it. However, Yin Xun had read the original novel. At this moment, she was quite certain that these were the people who would pull Yin Rui into the depths of hell.


    She was quite surprised that Si Fan started planning this a few years ago. He was really patient.


    ¡°Stay away from your bad friends in the future!¡± Yin Xun warned him. Yin Rui snapped, ¡°What? They¡¯re my classmates. They help me out a lot!¡¯ Yin Rui was confused. It was inevitable that he would be deceived.


    Yin Xun frowned and thought for a moment before saying, ¡°From tomorrow onward, go to the company and work for me. If you have any questions, ask me. I¡¯ll teach you.¡±


    As long as he was not given the chance to go out and mess around, there would not be a problem.


    As for his shady friends, as long as they slipped up and showed evidence to Yin Rui, he would eventually understand.


    ¡®What?¡± Yin Rui was shocked. He quickly refused. ¡°No, no. Big Sister, please spare me. I¡¯m not cut out for business. I can¡¯t meddle in the business world. Besides, it¡¯s rare for me to be on a break. Let me have some fun!¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t have a choice. You have to head over tomorrow,¡± Yin Xun said firmly. ¡°You will be managing the family company in the future. You have to train now. Otherwise, what if you get swindled in the future?¡±


    Yin Rui shook his head like a rattle drum. ¡°No, no, no. Big Sister, I¡¯m different from Second Sister. She always wants to fight you for the family assets, but I don¡¯t think like that. You can have my share. Anyway, as long as I don¡¯t go hungry, I¡¯ll be fine!¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression gradually turned colder. She stared at Yin Rui without saying a word.


    Under Yin Xun¡¯s mounting pressure, Yin Rui finally compromised.


    He had no choice. Yin Xun¡¯s face was so cold it was almost threatening. If he did not agree, Yin Xun would beat him up.


    ¡°That¡¯s more like it.¡± Seeing that Yin Rui had agreed, Yin Xun finally revealed a gentle smile. She went on her tiptoes and touched Yin Rui¡¯s head as if she was patting a puppy. At the same time, she said, ¡°You¡¯re an obedient boy. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take care of you. But you¡¯re really tall. It would¡¯ve been better if you were shorter.¡±


    Yin Rui, ¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun left. She heard Yin Rui¡¯s frantic voice behind her.. ¡°Ugh¡­¡±

 Chapter 276 - Chapter 276: Doubts

    Chapter 276: Doubts


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun sighed helplessly when he heard Yin Rui¡¯s anguished voice.


    She did not want to do this either. However, if she did not interfere, Yin Rui would definitely continue to play into their hands in the future.


    The trust had already been established. As long as she did not have absolute evidence, Yin Rui would definitely not believe her.


    If Yin Rui fell for the trap laid for him, the consequences would be irreversible.


    When she read the original novel, Yin Xun¡¯s heart ached for the younger brother character. He had been tricked into taking drugs and was suffering horribly after becoming addicted. However, in order to save Yin MO, he persevered to quit his drug addiction.


    Unfortunately, he had sacrificed too much and was then ruthlessly deceived by Yin Mo and became a cripple. In the end, he died miserably.


    This younger brother character was innocent, but he was not stupid. He was different from Yin MO, so Yin Xun wanted to save him.


    However, she was a little curious. Ever since she came to this world, she had been changing the original timeline, preventing many disasters that should have happened.


    According to the law of conservation, would these disasters turn into something else? Or could it be that she was considered a part of this world after arriving here, so everything she did was fated and not an accident at all?


    Yin Xun had not been in this world for long, so she was not sure if there would be any consequences for her action.


    She was like Si Fan, who was the male protagonist of his original story. He had a strong protagonist aura, so he could do many illegal or illogical things with little consequence. Similarly, if she transmigrated from another world, would she become the new protagonist? Would she also have the aura of a protagonist?


    Many questions remained unanswered in Yin Xun¡¯s heart. In fact, she was still very worried about the battle with Si Fan.


    In all the novel settings, no matter how much expertise you had, as long as you went against the protagonist, you would ultimately fail.


    All these uncertainties made Yin Xun feel insecure. During those late nights or the times when she made a big decision, she would be confused and afraid while trapped in her thoughts.


    However, there was one thing that she was very clear about. She had to oppose Si Fan; if she did not, everything and everyone, including her, would be destroyed by Si Fan in the end.


    Therefore, even if it was a small matter, as long as she could make Si Fan fail, she would pass up the opportunity. Something as huge as protecting her family went without saying.


    ¡°Xun, why didn¡¯t you come over to eat after you¡¯re done with the call? The food won¡¯t taste good if it¡¯s cold. It¡¯s also not good for your stomach. Seriously, no matter how busy you are with work, it¡¯s not as important as your health.¡± Wu Li walked out of the kitchen and advised Yin Xun when she saw her standing there in a daze.


    Hearing Wu Li¡¯s voice, Yin Xun instantly came back to her senses.


    She asked an unexpected question. ¡®Mom, if anything happens to the family because of me in the future, will you hate me?¡±


    If she lost to Si Fan in the end, what awaited the Yin family would be an even greater blow than the original future.


    Wu Li was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, ¡°Mommy will never hate you. No matter what you do, don¡¯t feel pressured. You can do whatever you want.¡± She seemed to have guessed what Yin Xun was thinking about.


    Yin Xun did not expect Wu Li to answer like this. Seeing her concerned gaze, Yin Xun suddenly heaved a sigh of relief and scolded herself internally. What was there to be afraid of? The future was unknown. As long as she did what she thought was right, even if she failed in the end, there was no reason to regret


    it.


    After all, she would always be different from Yin Mo. Yin MO had destroyed the Yin family for someone else¡¯s sake, while she had been working to save herself and the Yin family.


    Now, she had cut off more than half of Si Fan¡¯s escape routes. Blue Fox would face clear hardships in the future.


    Si Fan was someone who could do anything in a moment of desperation. If he could not handle her, he would not hesitate to look for her family.


    Wu Li and Yin Cheng were fine. As long as Si Fan still needed to use Yin MO, he could not touch them for the time being.


    Yin Rui was the one in the most danger. All of Yin Xun¡¯s energy was focused on the project and opposing Si Fan. She could not spare time to take care of Yin Rui, so she could only bring him along with her. That way, he would be safe.


    Coincidentally, apart from protecting Yin Rui, they could also improve their brother-sister relationship. They could not let Yin Rui learn from Yin Mo. If the two of them got too close, the Yin family would be in even more danger.


    After Wu Li¡¯s constant urging, Yin Xun went back to continue eating.


    However, her meal had just been interrupted. Now, she had lost her appetite and did not feel like eating anymore. On top of that, she had to go back to settle some matters now. As such, she told Wu Li that she did not want to eat anymore. Then, she said goodbye to everyone and left the Yin family home..

 Chapter 277 - Chapter 277: Not Coming For Dinner

    Chapter 277: Not Coming For Dinner

    She drove back to her villa in the suburbs. When she passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, the butler was trimming the flowers and plants in the courtyard. When he saw Yin Xun¡¯s car, he immediately came out to greet her. ¡°Miss Yin, you¡¯re back a little late today. It just so happens that our Young Master has just returned as well. Come over and have a meal. ¡®


    Yin Xun rolled down the car window and was about to refuse when the butler continued, ¡®The kitchen prepared crispy squab and swan today. It¡¯s just finished. It¡¯s time for a fresh and delicious meal. If we wait any later, the taste will change.¡±


    As if he deliberately wanted to entice Yin Xun, the butler even described in detail what the dish was like and how it tasted. His words were vivid and comparable to a food critic.


    Yin Xun was tempted. She had not eaten much at home just now, but now that she heard the butler¡¯s description, she felt particularly hungry. Just as she was about to say yes, she heard someone call her.


    ¡°Yin Xun, why are you only back now? I¡¯ve been waiting for you for ages!¡¯


    Yin Xun looked ahead. Liu Ying was standing at the entrance of her courtyard and calling out to her. At this moment, Liu Ying was still wearing an apron and a cooking hat. She looked like a professional chef.


    The butler also heard the voice and walked to the door curiously to see what was going on.


    ¡°Miss Liu Ying?¡¯ When he saw Liu Ying standing in front of Yin Xun¡¯s house, he was shocked and immediately became vigilant.


    He knew all about the incident ofYin Xun¡¯s bodyguards capturing Liu Ying that night.


    From the conversation back then, he could tell that the two of them did not have a good relationship. He also heard from the servants that Yin Xun had once sent Liu Ying to prison. That matter caused a huge commotion, and many people were mocking the Liu family for it.


    In the past, Liu Ying at least was secretive when trying to challenge Yin Xun. Now, she had come to Yin Xun¡¯s house directly. The butler looked at Liu Ying warily. It just so happened that Fang Yao was at home now. If Liu Ying tried to do anything to Yin Xun, he would let Fang Yao handle the situation. It would be a good opportunity for Fang Yao to show off in front of Yin Xun.


    ¡°Miss Yin, if you have anything to say, you should tell our Young Master. You two are business partners, and he will surely protect you from harm. You don¡¯t have to worry if someone comes looking for you at your house.¡± As the butler spoke, his gaze swept past Liu Ying; his meaning was very obvious.


    Yin Xun understood what the butler meant. She knew that if she explained it directly, the butler would feel embarrassed, so she pretended to introduce Liu Ying. ¡°Uncle Butler, let me introduce you. Liu Ying is another business partner of mine now. ¡®


    ¡°Partner?¡± The butler was a little surprised, but he caught on quickly. He smiled and said, ¡°Miss Yin is indeed amazing.¡±


    Liu Ying thought that Yin Xun did not hear her, so she walked over to them. She smiled at the butler in greeting, then said to Yin Xun, ¡°You¡¯re the big boss, but you¡¯re still working overtime. To think you¡¯d be back so late. I¡¯ve already reheated the food. I was afraid of calling in case I interrupted your work. After all, you still have to earn money. If it¡¯s reheated any longer, it won¡¯t taste good.


    Hurry up and eat.¡±


    After saying that, Liu Ying walked back to the villa.


    The butler asked Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, Miss Liu Ying is¡­cooking at your house?¡± His eyes were filled with disbelief.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. Uncle Butler, please help me tell Fang Yao that Liu Ying will be cooking at my house in the future, so I won¡¯t go over to eat with him like before. Thank you for taking care of me in the past. I¡¯ve been intruding on your hospitality for too long. It¡¯s embarrassing. ¡±


    Originally, Yin Xun had planned to go to Fang Yao¡¯s house to eat, but since Liu Ying had left food for her, she would just go home to eat.


    After all, it was not good to always go to Fang Yao¡¯s house for meals. It was fine if done occasionally, but if she went every day, what if she delayed his business dealings? It was also possible he was just being polite. What if he felt uncomfortable offering her meals but was too embarrassed to say it?


    She never liked to trouble others, so when she went to Fang Yao¡¯s house for dinner, she always gave him gifts. She was afraid that she would be annoying if she ate and drank for free.


    Now, she had Liu Ying. In any case, Yin Xun would provide the ingredients while Liu Ying would be in charge of cooking. Both of them would gain from this. It was perfect.


    After explaining to the butler and bidding him farewell, Yin Xun drove straight back.


    As he watched Yin Xun leave, the butler suddenly had an ugly expression on his face. Then, he ran off to look for Fang Yao.


    ¡°Young Master, something bad has happened. Miss Yin Xun said that she will no longer come to our house to eat. She has someone cooking for her now!¡±


    At this moment, Fang Yao was reading a book in the study and waiting for Yin Xun. When he heard the butler¡¯s words, he revealed a surprised expression. He asked, ¡°She hired a chef?¡±


    The butler shook his head. ¡°Not quite. It¡¯s Miss Liu Ying. Miss Yin Xun said that


    Miss Liu Ying will cook for her in the future.¡±

 Chapter 278 - Chapter 278: Enemies Became Friends

    Chapter 278: Enemies Became Friends


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao did not say anything for a moment. The butler looked at him and cursed in his heart. He had watched Fang Yao grow up and knew what he was thinking.


    Fang Yao clearly fancied Yin Xun. It was fine if he did not say anything, but he did not even show any reaction to the news that Yin Xun would not come in the future. With his current attitude, would he really be able to woo Yin Xun in the future?


    Moreover, Yin Xun was a person who treated relationships very seriously.


    Seeing the interaction between the two of them, the butler felt exhausted.


    Just as he was about to persuade Fang Yao and help him think of a solution, Fang Yao spoke up.


    ¡°Since someone at home is cooking for her, we should let her eat at home. Oh right, send her the snacks that were brought in from overseas two days ago, ¡®


    Fang Yao said.


    Finally, there was a reaction. The butler felt rather comforted.


    He was still waiting for Fang Yao¡¯s next instructions, but there seemed to be none. He could not help but ask, ¡°Are you done? Is that all?¡±


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. ¡°What else can I do?¡±


    The butler,  I suppose that¡¯s it.¡±


    If Yin Xun really would not come to eat in the future, the only excuse for the two of them to see each other regularly would be gone. To the butler, it seemed like Fang Yao would die alone.


    ¡°Young Master, Miss Yin is a good lady. If you start missing her, I am afraid that it will be harder for you to meet her again in the future. It is my belief that if you like someone, you have to be brave and chase after her. Whether you succeed or not is one thing. At least, you will have tried your best. Even if you fail, you will not regret it. But if you do nothing, you will definitely be filled with regrets in the end and cannot change anything.¡± After considering it again and again, the butler finally said what was on his mind.


    Fang Yao was still considered half a child to him. He did not want to see him regret this in the future.


    Fang Yao did not expect the butler to be so anxious on his behalf. He had actually tried to persuade him so directly. He smiled and comforted the butler. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what to do.¡±


    The butler sighed and sent over the snacks to Yin Xun according to Fang Yao¡¯s instructions.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was praising Liu Ying¡¯s culinary skills. Every time she took a bite, she would exclaim in praise. Liu Ying looked smugger and smugger with her praise, and the corners of her mouth did not seem like they would drop anytime soon.


    When Yin Xun heard Liu Ying say that she could cook, she thought that she only knew how to cook ordinary home-cooked dishes. She never expected such a feast. The presentation and aroma were not inferior to Fang Yao¡¯s chef.


    ¡°If we fail and go bankrupt in the future, you don¡¯t have to worry about your survival at all. You can go and be a chef. With your skills, many restaurants will definitely fight to sign you up,¡± Yin Xun said.


    This was already the highest level of praise.


    However, when Liu Ying heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, she was not happy. Instead, she snarled, ¡°Be careful of your jinxed words. If you dare to squander that money, I¡¯ll gut you, just like that fish..


    Yin Xun looked in the direction where Liu Ying was pointing her chin; she saw a fish on the cabinet that had been dug out cleanly. She did not know whether to laugh or cry and quickly apologized. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Miss Liu. I will definitely win!¡±


    After all, Yin Xun was carrying a lot on her back. If she lost, it would really be over.


    However, no one could guarantee what happened in the future. Given the huge commotion between them back then, who would have thought that Yin Xun and Liu Ying would become partners in the end? The two of them were even considered friends.


    ¡°By the way, let¡¯s get down to business. Yin MO hit a dead end today. Si Fan surely won¡¯t let it go. He¡¯ll think of something else.¡± Liu Ying suddenly became serious as she said this.


    Yin Xun nodded and told her about how Yin MO wanted to split the family assets.


    ¡°As expected.¡± Liu Ying gave a meaningful look and said, ¡°Based on Si Fan¡¯s personality, if he can¡¯t achieve something openly, he will definitely do it in the dark. He¡¯s in a desperate situation now. His former friends saw what happened to Xing Cheng and Zhang Xin and won ¡®t help him anymore. As for his investors, Blue Fox¡¯s situation isn¡¯t bad enough yet. They can¡¯t set more extreme conditions, so they won¡¯t do anything.


    ¡°Now that Si Fan is out of money and has no one to help him, he has to think of a way to pull the situation back on track. After all, once the matter gets out of his control, he will be completely useless. Other methods won¡¯t work for the time being. So, the only way he can fight now is to keep an eye on the Yin family. He will take advantage of the fact that he can still control Blue Fox to get himself a good position.¡¯


    Yin Xun was still not used to Liu Ying¡¯s sudden changes in tone. She looked at Liu Ying in surprise and said, ¡°You¡¯re a very sharp person. Why did you keep doing dumb things for Si Fan back then?¡¯


    Liu Ying sighed and said, ¡°Because I thought Si Fan would be my lover..

 Chapter 279 - Chapter 279: Just Friends

    Chapter 279: Just Friends


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun could tell that although Liu Ying also had a love-addled brain, she was different from Yin Mo. Liu Ying was centered on herself, while Yin Mo¡¯s brain was centered on Si Fan.


    Liu Ying saw that Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts were straying and snapped, ¡°Hey Yin Xun, I invested in you so I can make money. You have to be careful when dealing with Si Fan. In order not to get into trouble, you have to also be wary of Yin MO!¡¯


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Of course. Don¡¯t worry, I take this matter more seriously than anyone else.¡±


    While the two of them were talking, the doorbell suddenly rang. Yin Xun went out to open the door. It was the butler.


    ¡°Miss Yin, these are the snacks that our Young Master specially prepared for you. They¡¯re very delicious. I originally planned to pass this to you when you came over, but I did not expect you would stop coming over. That¡¯s why I quickly brought the snacks over for you,¡± the butler said with a smile.


    ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler.¡± Yin Xun did not refuse and accepted the gift directly. It would be even worse if she rejected it now.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had accepted the gift, the butler opened his mouth and wanted to say something. However, when he recalled Fang Yao saying that he would handle things, the butler decided not to say anything. It would be bad if he did something in Fang Yao¡¯s place.


    After giving the snacks, the butler left.


    Yin Xun closed the door and turned around. Unexpectedly, Liu Ying was leaning against the door frame of the dining room and looking at her.


    ¡°Yin Xun, let me ask you something. What is your relationship with Fang Yao?¡± Liu Ying asked with a slight frown.


    ¡®We¡¯re friends,¡± Yin Xun answered straightforwardly. In fact, she had wanted to say ¡®best friends¡¯, but their statuses were different. She was afraid that Fang Yao only treated her as a business partner now, so perhaps it would be wrong to consider each other close friends.


    In the past, when Yin Xun was still an ordinary person, she could not sense a difference in class like this because she was surrounded by people of the same level. She had never seen any big shots at all.


    However, it was different now. As she attended various banquets, discussed business, and constantly interacted with all kinds of people in upper-class society, she understood that even the slightest difference in class would have a huge impact.


    The Yin family was one of the best in the construction industry and could be considered a member of the upper-class society. However, they were still far inferior to the Xing family. That was why Xing Guang looked down on Yin


    Cheng so much. The Fang family¡¯s status was even higher than the Xing family.


    Yin Xun had investigated all this. The Fang family stood at the top family in the country. Logically thinking, she was not qualified to be close friends with Fang


    Yao.


    Although Yin Xun did not care about these things, she had no choice but to accept what was common in this society.


    It could not be helped. Since ancient times, people had always strived to climb higher. Who would pay attention to people who were inferior to them in all aspects?


    However, Yin Xun was confident that one day, she would become the person who stood at the top.


    Liu Ying rolled her eyes and said warningly, ¡°You said it yourself. You and Fang Yao are just friends. Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll continue to pursue Fang Yao. Don¡¯t get involved in the future.¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, ¡°Do you have to report to me who you¡¯re trying to get? Although we¡¯re working together now , there¡¯s no need to say anything about your private matters. You just have to do your part in business.¡±


    ¡®You really don¡¯t care?¡± Liu Ying stared into Yin Xun¡¯s eyes and asked.


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°Why should I mind?¡¯


    Liu Ying sighed and muttered, ¡°Seriously, you keep saying that I¡¯m stupid. There¡¯s someone even more stupid than me here. Sometimes I wonder if I made the right choice. Forget it, I¡¯ve already boarded the ship. It¡¯s too late to regret it. Let¡¯s leave it at that.¡±


    ¡°All right.¡± With that, she turned and went back into the dining room.


    Yin Xun heard Liu Ying¡¯s whispers and was filled with disbelief. Was Liu Ying actually saying that she was stupid?


    To think she was called stupid by a person who had done all sorts of illegal things for Si Fan in the past. Yin Xun immediately felt like she had suffered a serious blow.


    As she complained in her heart, she suddenly realized a problem.


    She did not know if it was because she was biased against Liu Ying in the past or if Liu Ying¡¯s character had greatly changed, but Liu Ying¡¯s current behavior was very different from what she had seen in the book.


    In the original novel, Liu Ying had a love-addled brain that was not inferior to Yin MOs. Now, however, her thoughts and actions were totally different from before.


    Could she have caused this? She changed the original direction of the story¡ª perhaps that caused the people involved to change as well.


    Yin Xun started to regret not paying attention to the plot in the middle chapters. She did not know what other changes might happen in the future. However, she was certain that Yin MO would not change. That girl was really stubborn to the end.


    Yin Xun and Liu Ying had invited the two bodyguards to join them to eat but were rejected..

    Chapter 280: Reprimanded By The Bodyguard


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Tan Ai always had a cold expression on her face and rarely talked. As such, Shu Yi was the one who smiled at them and explained.


    This was the professionalism of bodyguards. They could not eat with the person they were protecting, because in case Yin Xun was poisoned by food or something, they could protect her immediately.


    Liu Ying laughed when she heard the explanation; Yin Xun looked troubled. Although the bodyguard was right, she felt that something was wrong about this.


    After dinner, the two of them cleared the table and washed the cutlery. Then, Liu Ying prepared to go home.


    ¡®Your place is a little far from mine. Actually, if it¡¯s convenient, you can stay at my place directly,¡± Yin Xun said to Liu Ying.


    If Liu Ying could stay here all the time, it would be more convenient for her to cook for her. However, Yin Xun did not say this last part.


    ¡°We¡¯ll talk about this later. I¡¯m going back to rest now. I have my own things to do. Since my parents don¡¯t trust me and my brother is starting to turn his attention to me, I¡¯m at a dead end. In order to make my own decisions in the future, I want to start learning about business and running a company,¡± Liu Ying said with a serious expression.


    Yin Xun could see how determined Liu Ying was this time.


    She nodded and said, ¡°If you want to learn, you can come to my company. You own half of our short video website. You can drop by anytime.¡±


    Liu Ying stared into Yin Xun¡¯s eyes as if she wanted to see something from her gaze. In the end, all she saw was Yin Xun¡¯s serious expression. She suddenly smiled and refused the offer. ¡°Forget it. I won¡¯t be able to learn any real skills like that. I want to rely on my own strength to climb up from the bottom and take the company from my brother.¡±


    Seeing Liu Ying like this, Yin Xun suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She reminded her, ¡°But that will take a long time. Aren¡¯t you afraid that it will be too late?¡±


    Liu Ying smiled and said, ¡°No, I have spies in the company. They will inform me if there are any changes.¡±


    Looking at Liu Ying¡¯s determined gaze, Yin Xun felt she had found the right person.


    After Liu Ying left, Yin Xun stretched and planned to take a shower and relax for a while before sleeping. However, just as Liu Ying left, Yin Xun¡¯s phone rang.


    She was startled. She picked it up and saw that it was Fang Yao calling. Yin Xun knew that something was wrong. She dawdled for a while before answering the call.


    ¡°Have you eaten?¡± It was Fang Yao¡¯s magnetic voice on the phone. Normally, Yin Xun would appreciate it, but now, she was not in the mood for that because she could vaguely guess what Fang Yao was going to say.


    ¡°Yes, Liu Ying left already,¡± Yin Xun answered weakly.


    Fang Yao chuckled softly and said, ¡°Since you¡¯ve finished eating and the guests have left, it¡¯s time for you to come over and continue training. If you don¡¯t want to come over, I¡¯ll go to your place.¡±


    Thinking of Fang Yao¡¯s bandaged hand, Yin Xun quickly said, ¡°No need, no need. I¡¯ll go over now!¡±


    Fang Yao was really serious when it came to work. He even helped her train consistently. Yin Xun went to Fang Yao¡¯s house. After another night of torture, she dragged her tired body back to her villa.


    ¡°Miss Yin, Young Master Fang is being ruthless for your own good. If he is not hard on you now, others will be more merciless to you in the future. Can¡¯t you can tell which is the lesser evil¡ªexhaustion or a threat to your life?¡±


    While Yin Xun was complaining about Fang Yao, the usually cold and silent


    Tan Ai spoke her opinion.


    For some reason, there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.


    On the other side, Shu Yi nudged Tan Ai twice when Tan Ai finished speaking, indicating that she should know her limits. Tan Ai quickly stopped talking. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, President Yin. Lil Ai¡¯s words have always been unpleasant. Please don¡¯t take it to heart,¡± Shu Yi said with a smile.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. She¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun waved her hand indifferently.


    Although her tone was not pleasant to the ear, her words made sense.


    Yin Xun knew that Tan Ai and Shu Yi must have undergone far harsher training than hers to become bodyguards. It must be even more tiring and painful. That was why she reacted so strongly when Yin Xun complained about being tired.


    Yin Xun thought that as long as Tan Ai did her job well, she could tolerate a little temper. After all, they were all humans with their own personalities, so she did not take the sudden impoliteness to heart.


    After taking a shower and drinking a glass of milk, Yin Xun slept comfortably.


    The next morning, she arrived at the company in high spirits.


    There were no new problems on Blue Fox¡¯s side. The preparation process for the short video website was also very smooth. Yin Xun could finally relax.


    There was nothing much to do at the moment, so she waited for Yin Rui to come over. However, before she could rest for long, her troubles arrived..

 Chapter 281 - Chapter 281: The Fang Familys Invitation

    Chapter 281: The Fang Family¡¯s Invitation


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    It was already time for work, but Yin Rui was not here yet. He could not be late on the first day.


    Yin Xun took out her phone and was about to call Yin Rui to ask him about this when the landline on her desk rang.


    Yin Xun answered the call and heard the receptionist¡¯s voice. ¡°President Yin, a certain Mr. Fang said that he is looking for you. Do you want him to go up and meet you?¡±


    Mr. Fang? Yin Xun¡¯s first thought was that it was Fang Yao. However, if it was Fang Yao, he would have told her in advance.


    ¡®What¡¯s his name? How old is he?¡± Yin Xun was not sure and asked some questions.


    The receptionist replied, ¡°The person only said that his surname is Fang. He said that as long as I say this surname, you will know who he is. As for his age, he looks to be about 140 years old.¡±


    ¡°Treat him well. I¡¯ll be right down,¡± Yin Xun instructed the receptionist.


    If he was around 40 years old, then he was not Fang Yao. Yin Xun vaguely seemed to guess who it was. Perhaps it was someone from Fang Yao¡¯s family.


    She recalled that a few days ago, she had told Fang Yao about investing in express delivery. He told her that he needed to discuss this with the people in the company. Perhaps something had gone wrong, so the Fang family had personally come to look for her. It seemed that Fang Yao did not know about this. If he knew, he would definitely have informed her in advance.


    She quickly looked at herself in the mirror. Yin Xun had left in a hurry today and only put on light makeup. Fortunately, she had been exercising recently and had a good sleep schedule. Her complexion was rosy and she was full of energy. Most importantly, she was very healthy. Not bad, not bad.


    After everything was settled, Yin Xun went downstairs.


    When she arrived at the reception room on the first floor, Yin Xun walked in. At this moment, the receptionist was entertaining a gentleman inside. When she saw Yin Xun, the receptionist promptly went out.


    ¡°Hello, Mr. Fang. May I know why you¡¯re looking for me?¡± Yin Xun asked with a smile.


    There was a cup of tea on the table, but Mr. Fang did not move. Instead, he was sitting upright on the chair. When he saw Yin Xun enter, he immediately stood up and politely smiled back. ¡°Hello, are you Miss Yin Xun?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    ¡°It¡¯s like this, Miss Yin. My surname is not Fang. I am the butler of the Fang family, and my surname is He. The reason I said this was because Madam asked me not to openly talk about the Fang family¡¯s matters. I was afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble. Because of your relationship with the Young Master, I think that as long as use the Fang family¡¯s name, you should be able to understand immediately,¡± Butler He explained.


    ¡°Hello, Butler He.¡± Yin Xun immediately changed the way she addressed him.


    After smiling politely, Butler He handed an envelope to Yin Xun and said, ¡°Our Madam has long heard about you and has always wanted to meet you, but she never had the chance. This time, Young Master told CEO Fang and Madam that he wanted to continue investing in your projects. Madam felt that it was necessary to meet you, so she asked me to come and send you an invitation.¡±


    Yin Xun took the envelope and glanced at it.


    There was no writing on it. It bore a landscape painting that was very beautiful. Yin Xun could not help but reach out to touch it. Only then did she realize that the painting on it was three-dimensional. No wonder it looked so real.


    Most importantly, Yin Xun could tell that the painting was hand-drawn. It was so lifelike that it was a masterpiece.


    She could not help but sigh quietly. As expected of a rich family. Even a simple envelope from them was so prestigious.


    ¡°Can I open it?¡± Yin Xun asked politely.


    Butler He raised his hand invitingly and smiled. ¡°Of course.¡±


    Yin Xun opened the envelope. Inside was a black invitation letter with golden edges. The material was very high-class and felt quite good.


    ¡°This is¡­¡± Yin Xun asked in confusion. If the Madam just wanted to meet her, she could have just called her. She went out of her way to send an invitation. It seemed that this was not an ordinary meeting. If she was not wrong, Fang Yao¡¯s mother must have other motives.


    Butler He explained, ¡°This is a formal invitation. Madam was afraid that you wouldn¡¯t believe me if I simply invited you. After all, our Madam doesn¡¯t want Young Master to know about this. So, you had better not tell Young Master about this. ¡®


    Yin Xun rejected this idea in her mind. She instinctively felt that there would be trouble this time, but she agreed without hesitation. ¡°Okay.¡±


    Rejecting was just a thought. Regardless of the other party¡¯s motive, she had to go.


    Putting aside the fact that she was dealing with Fang Yao¡¯s mother, even if the person had nothing to do with Fang Yao, she could not let go of any opportunity that was related to business.


    The investment involved this time was too important to her. If she missed out on the Fang family¡¯s money tree¡ªno, the sugar daddy from their family¡ªit would be too difficult to find such a rich and hassle-free person in the future..

 Chapter 282 - Chapter 282: Be Careful That You Cant Get Married

    Chapter 282: Be Careful That You Can¡¯t Get Married


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    As long as she was fully prepared, there should not be any problems.


    Fang Yao¡¯s mother asked to meet her because she was worried about the return on the investment. As long as she made the information fully detailed and let


    Mrs. Fang see the money to be made in the future, there would definitely be no Issue.


    Yin Xun was quite confident about this.


    In an instant, Yin Xun quickly thought about the entire plan and even confirmed what she was going to do next.


    The butler did not know what she was thinking. Seeing that she had agreed, he said, ¡°There¡¯s a time and address on the invitation. If you can¡¯t find the place, you can call me. I¡¯ll come and pick you up. It¡¯s still early for the banquet, so I won¡¯t disturb your work.¡±


    Butler He had a smile on his face the entire time he spoke. He looked friendly but his eyes gave off a cold and distant feeling.


    Although this was the first time Yin Xun had seen Butler He, for some reason, the man gave her a very familiar feeling; it was as though she had seen him somewhere before. However, it was impolite to stare at others. Yin Xun only took a few glances and could not take a closer look, so she could not remember.


    After giving his instructions, Butler He left.


    At this moment, there was no one in the reception room. Yin Xun casually sat on the chair beside her and picked up the invitation letter to read it carefully.


    As expected, it was written in great detail. Not only was there a time and address, even the dress requirements and food prepared were listed one by one. It was very considerate. It was very different from the banquets Yin Xun had attended in the past. The previous ones were only simple invitations and were not so detailed.


    The banquet was from six to eight in the evening. The location was a little far from Xintao. It seemed that she had to get off work early.


    She could arrive early, but she could not be late. That would be impolite. If she arrived early, she could just wait outside and enter when it was time.


    There was one more important thing she could not forget, and that was to bring bodyguards.


    Yin Xun took out her phone and called Tan Ai. Today, Tan Ai was responsible for her safety at night. After telling Tan Ai the time of the banquet, Yin Xun checked the information about the event. It turned out to be confidential; she could not find anything online.


    As expected of a top-notch wealthy family¡ªeven the news agency did not dare to report about them casually.


    Seeing that she could not find any news about the Fang family, Yin Xun could only give up.


    When Yin Xun returned to the office, Yin Rui had already arrived. He was sitting on his chair and sleeping with his upper body sprawled over the table.


    The sunlight shone through the window and landed on Yin Rui, making his entire body seem to glow with golden light. The picture looked rather scenic. However, when she thought about Yin Rui¡¯s future, Yin Xun instantly felt a wave of sadness.


    ¡°You don¡¯t feel hot even though you ¡®re under the sun. You¡¯re really not very smart.¡± Yin Xun could not help but complain in a low voice.


    ¡°It¡¯s your first day at work and you¡¯re already late. Are you going to sleep on the job as well?¡± Yin Xun went forward and pinched Yin Rui¡¯s ear, lifting it up slightly.


    Yin Rui had not slept well, to begin with. Now that his ear was pinched, he had to raise his head not to get hurt.


    ¡°Sister, it hurts¡­¡± Yin Rui did not dare to struggle and could only plead for mercy.


    Seeing that Yin Rui was awake, Yin Xun asked, ¡°Tell me, what happened? Why are you late?¡±


    Yin Rui let out a long sigh. Rubbing his ear that was smarting from being pinched, he complained, ¡°Are you really my biological sister? You¡¯re so ruthless to me. You¡¯re not gentle at all. Be careful that you can¡¯t get married in the future.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s good. I¡¯ll have more time to take care of you.¡± Yin Xun was not angry at Yin Rui¡¯s words at all. Instead, she smiled at him.


    What Yin Rui was most afraid of was Yin Xun staring at him with a smile. He never knew what would happen next. It made him feel especially tormented. It was as if his brain was being dismembered. Being beaten up was preferable.


    ¡°Sis, I was wrong.¡± Yin Rui immediately apologized.


    ¡°Be a good boy and repent.¡± Yin Xun patted Yin Rui¡¯s shoulder and began to assign him some work.


    Yin Rui¡¯s studies were not good to begin with, not to mention that he had not even graduated from high school yet. In addition, Xintao was currently a developing company. The employees were all competent, so they were not any good tasks for Yin Rui.


    Compared to Xintao, the Yin family¡¯s construction company was actually a better fit for Yin Rui because the system there was already in its mature phase. Yin Rui could easily be a small assistant there.


    However, in order to prevent Si Fan from playing dirty tricks, Yin Xun had to keep Yin Rui by her side so that she could monitor him at all times..

    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    It would be fine when Yin Rui started school. The school was very strict, so she did not have to worry about these problems.


    After thinking about it, Yin Xun asked Yin Rui, ¡°Have you thought about what major you want to apply for in university?¡±


    After considering Yin Rui¡¯s major in the future, she would assign him a job. This way, Yin Rui could familiarize himself with that field early. When he graduated from university, he would be able to work in the company.


    Yin Rui shook his head. ¡°I don¡¯t know. I¡¯ve never thought about it. Dad won¡¯t let me apply for the things I like, and I don¡¯t want to study what he likes.¡±


    Yin Xun pondered for a moment. Since that was the case, she could only give him a simple and tedious job.


    She called Mary over, intending to let her take Yin Rui with her.


    ¡°President Yin, what did you call me for?¡± Mary came over very quickly, but she did not seem to have rested well. The dark circles under her eyes were very severe and her eyes were lifeless. Her face was pale. She was usually exquisite and upright, but at this moment, it was as if she had been ravaged.


    ¡°Are you feeling unwell?¡± Yin Xun felt that Mary¡¯s condition was abnormal and asked with concern.


    Mary shook her head. ¡°I am fine. I just did not sleep well last night. I am a little sleepy now. I will be fine after I have a cup of coffee later. President Yin, don¡¯t worry. It will not affect my work. ¡±


    Yin Xun stared at Mary for a few seconds. She had a feeling that there was something in her heart. It did not seem like she had simply not rested well.


    Nevertheless, it was her personal business, and she could not pry if Mary did not talk about it herself.


    ¡®Well, you can tell me if there¡¯s anything you need. I¡¯ll do what I can to help.¡± Yin Xun turned away from Mary and comforted her.


    Mary did not expect Yin Xun to be so concerned about her. She was stunned for a moment before she replied gratefully, ¡®Okay, President Yin.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re the only one in the company who knows Yin Rui. I want him to be your assistant. You can order him around. If he doesn¡¯t listen, tell me. Please train him well.¡± Yin Xun patted Yin Rui¡¯s back, indicating for him to go with Mary.


    Surprised, Mary asked uncertainly, ¡°You want him to work with me as my assistant?¡¯


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right.¡±


    ¡°But the Young Master isn¡¯t an adult yet, right? Can he really work with me?¡± Mary was puzzled.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°He¡¯ll follow your instructions during his holiday.¡±


    After saying that to Mary, Yin Xun turned to Yin Rui and said, ¡°If you don¡¯t work hard, if you come late or leave early, or don¡¯t listen to orders, I¡¯ll deduct your pocket money. Of course, if you perform well, I¡¯ll give you an extra 50% of your usual pocket money. How about that?¡±


    When he heard that he could increase his pocket money, Yin Rui¡¯s expression finally improved a little. He nodded in agreement.


    After that, Mary took Yin Rui away and began to teach him how to work.


    When Yin Xun saw this, the stony feeling in her heart was finally put down. There was another matter now¡ªshe had to quickly organize the delivery plan for Xintao. The more detailed, the better. She had to strive to get Fang Yao¡¯s mother to agree to her requests.


    In order to race against time, Yin Xun only took a simple bite of lunch.


    Finally, when it was almost time in the afternoon, she checked the plan again. This time, it looked perfect. She even sent Yin Cheng a copy and asked him to help take a look. If he had to invest in it, how would this plan work?


    Yin Cheng was very satisfied after reading it.


    At this moment, Tan Ai came over with a gown. She handed the gown to Yin Xun. It was the one Fang Yao had brought her to buy.


    When she saw the gown, Yin Xun remembered that she had to change her clothes for the banquet. She took the clothes and said, ¡®Thank you. I forgot about it.¡±


    Tan Ai turned her head and coughed lightly. Then, she said, ¡°You still have to put on makeup after changing into a gown. Your makeup is too simple now. You¡¯ll be considered impolite.


    Yin Xun quickly walked to the mirror beside her. Only then did she realize that after such a long time, her makeup had mostly faded. It was almost impossible to tell it was there. Yin Xun took out some cosmetics from the drawer and carefully applied them.


    Fortunately, she had a habit of preparing double portions of everything. This way, she could prevent unexpected incidents, such as what happened today.


    After her makeup was done, Yin Xun started to worry about when she should change. If she changed clothes now, it would be too eye-catching. If she did not, what if she had nowhere to change when she arrived at the destination? Surely she could not change in the car, right?


    She glanced at the gown. No, she would have the space in the car.


    Yin Xun valued this collaboration too much. The Fang family was a rare money tree. She could not lose them. She had to leave a good impression on them.


    Tan Ai saw Yin Xun looking at the gown with a sad face and immediately understood what she was thinking. She reminded her, ¡°The place has a special area to change clothes for people like you..¡±

 Chapter 284 - Chapter 284: Haunting

    Chapter 284: Haunting


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°Oh, I see.¡± Yin Xun caught on, but the next moment, she looked at Tan Ai in surprise and asked, ¡°How do you know so much?¡±


    Tan Ai did not reply this time.


    However, Yin Xun thought about how the bodyguard was someone Fang Yao had chosen for her. Any person who was chosen by Fang Yao must have an extraordinary background. She must have served some kind of big shot in the past.


    The job of a bodyguard was to follow her employer and protect her at all times, so it was normal for Tan Ai to know all this.


    Yin Xun did not think too much about this matter.


    After everything was ready, the two of them finally set off. Tan Ai drove the car.


    Not long after Yin Xun left the company, Yin MO called her.


    Just as she pressed the answer button, Yin Mo¡¯s sobbing voice could be heard. ¡°Sister, Fan is really angry at you this time. He said that he would give you one last chance. If you don¡¯t agree, then he won¡¯t hold back anymore! Sister, why do you always like to oppose Fan? He gave you such good terms. The two companies would merge, but you can still continue¡­¡±


    Before Yin MO could finish, Yin Xun hung up the phone and blocked her. She did not give Yin MO any response.


    Yin MO was really persistent. Did she think Yin Xun was a fool? If Si Fan could deal with her personally, why would he chase after her and ask to merge the company? He would definitely suppress Xintao directly if he could.


    The reason he made this offer now was because there was no better way.


    However, when she heard Yin Mo¡¯s trembling and sobbing voice just now¡­ Could she have been beaten up by Si Fan again?


    It was not impossible. Si Fan was at a most difficult moment. Yin MO failed to be any help, so it was normal for her to be beaten up. Si Fan was such a person, after all.


    Yin Xun¡¯s guess was right. At this moment, Yin MO was indeed receiving Si Fan¡¯s anger.


    Yesterday, after Yin MO left the Yin residence, she went straight back to Si


    Fan¡¯s house. She wanted to wait for Si Fan to come back and complain to him. However, after waiting for an entire night, not only did Si Fan not return, even his phone was switched off. Yin MO could not get through at all.


    Worried that something would happen to Si Fan, Yin MO tried all sorts of methods to contact Si Fan. She even found Si Fan¡¯s friends. After searching for a long time, she finally got some news about Si Fan. His friend said that Si Fan was discussing business outside and did not pick up because his phone was out of battery. He said that he had helped her inform Si Fan and would reply to her when Si Fan had time.


    Yin Mo did not sleep that night, afraid that she would miss Si Fan¡¯s message. In the end, she waited for the entire night and still did not receive a call.


    She was so tired that she could not open her eyes. She sent a message to Si Fan and told him that she would sleep first. If anything happened, he could call her and she would hear it.


    She slept until the afternoon. In a daze, she heard the door open. Yin MO guessed that Si Fan had returned and quickly got up to rush out. It was indeed Si Fan.


    Because of her anxiousness, Yin MO did not even put on her shoes. She rushed over barefoot. The moment she saw Si Fan, she threw herself into his arms and sobbed in grievance.


    Si Fan did not look good. He was annoyed to death. Zhou Meng hated Yin MO to begin with, and Yin MO kept contacting Si Fan¡¯s friends to look for him. As a result, his phone rang time and time again, and it was all related to Yin Mo. At that time, Zhou Meng was by his side. When she heard that Yin MO was looking for him everywhere, she became more and more impatient.


    Since he was afraid that his work would be delayed, Si Fan did not dare to turn off his phone.


    The reason Yin MO could not get through to him was that he had blacklisted her. He planned to add her back when he returned. Yin MO was stupid, so she would believe any random reason. However, he could not blacklist his friends. Otherwise, if he needed them in the future, things would be difficult.


    Under his persuasion, Zhou Meng finally agreed to invest first. As long as Zhou Meng¡¯s funds were transferred, Blue Fox¡¯s situation would be much better.


    However, with Yin Mo¡¯s interference, the investment plan was ruined.


    Zhou Meng was not as easy to deal with as Yin MO, who would listen to whatever he said. A verbal promise without a signature would not count. Zhou Meng said that she would invest after Yin MO left him.


    As for destroying the Yin family, Zhou Meng was not in a hurry. She could wait slowly, but Yin MO could not be allowed to continue staying by his side.


    Si Fan felt that he was in a difficult position. He needed Zhou Meng¡¯s money, but at the same time, he needed Yin Mols help. He could not give up on either of them, so he had to think of a compromise.


    Facing Yin MO, who was crying in his arms, Si Fan was really annoyed.. He resisted the urge to push Yin MO away and asked her impatiently, ¡°What happened? How¡¯s the matter I asked you to handle?¡±

 Chapter 285 - Chapter 285: Nosebleed

    Chapter 285: Nosebleed


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin MO sobbed as she told Si Fan about yesterday¡¯s grievances.


    When he heard that Yin MO had failed, Si Fan finally lost his patience. He pushed Yin MO away roughly and snapped, ¡°I¡¯ve thought of so many ideas for you, but none of them succeeded? How is that possible? This is already the best solution without hurting our interests. Yin MO, did you say something you shouldn¡¯t have?¡±


    ¡°How is that possible? Fan, don¡¯t you understand me? When have I ever not listened to you?¡¯ Seeing that Si Fan was doubting her, Yin MO felt even more aggrieved. ¡°l followed what you told me!¡¯


    Yin MO wiped her tears and asked Si Fan, ¡°Fan, why do you think everyone is helping my sister? I¡¯m also a member of the Yin family, and Liu Ying is even helping her now. She even splashed water on me! She was clearly my good friend in the past. Is our friendship so cheap? And Mi Jin¡­ He¡¯s done so many wrong things back then, but you¡¯ve already let bygones be bygones. You offered to help him but he doesn¡¯t appreciate it.


    ¡°My parents are the worst. Fan, you¡¯re right. They¡¯re so biased!¡± Yin MO buried her head in Si Fan¡¯s chest and cried more and more sadly.


    She continued to grumble. ¡°I clearly only said that I would like to have my share of the family assets, but they didn¡¯t agree. My father said that he would only help my sister. If he helps you, he will be opposing my sister, so he won¡¯t do it. I already told them that we can merge Xintao with Blue Fox. My sister can be the vice president. But my father didn¡¯t agree and said that you¡¯re an outsider.


    ¡°We¡¯re clearly about to get married. We¡¯ll be a family soon. You¡¯re also so considerate of them, so why don¡¯t they understand? What a waste of your good intentions¡­¡±


    Yin MO buried herself in Si Fan¡¯s chest and kept talking. The more Si Fan listened, the uglier his expression became. He could not help but scold Yin MO for being an idiot.


    He had always known about Yin Mo¡¯s feelings for him. She genuinely liked him and believed him without thinking, so no matter what he asked her to do or what he said, she would follow him. However, was she really not able to think about it from someone else¡¯s perspective?


    The girl was really stubborn. She did not even know how to twist his words. If Yin MO repeated everything he said word for word, it was no wonder things would go wrong.


    Si Fan pushed all the blame onto Yin Mo.


    However, this was not the end of the line. When Si Fan heard Yin MO say that she had failed, his temples were already throbbing. However, he suppressed his furious heart and told himself that it was not unexpected that she would fail.


    It was only until he heard Yin MO say that the money she owned was invested into Xintao that he finally could not hold it in anymore. He pushed Yin MO away and raised his hand to slap her.


    ¡®What did you say? Your money was put into Xintao?!¡± Si Fan had used all his strength to slap her. The part of Yin Mo¡¯s face that had been slapped immediately swelled up. A red palm print was clearly imprinted on her face, and even her nose was bleeding.


    Yin MO was stunned by Si Fan¡¯s slap. She sat on the ground and did not react for a moment.


    It was only when Si Fan pulled her up by the collar and reached out to pat the other half of her face that she came back to her senses and stared at Si Fan aggrievedly.


    ¡°Fan,          Yin MO opened her mouth to speak. She only realized she was bleeding when the blood from her nose was about to trickle into her mouth. She quickly reached out and pinched her nose, then immediately turned around to look for some tissue.


    Si Fan did not feel guilty at all for beating up his girlfriend like this. When he saw Yin Mols nose bleeding, he even turned his head away from her in disdain. At this moment, Yin MO looked extremely ugly.


    ¡°Speak clearly. What do you mean by you invested in Xintao too? Don¡¯t you know how much Blue Fox needs money now? If you have the money, why didn¡¯t you invest in Blue Fox?¡± Si Fan suppressed his anger and questioned her coldly.


    Yin MO had already found some tissue. She used one hand to cover her nose to stop the blood from flowing out. With her other hand, she gently wiped the blood with the wet tissue. When the blood was wiped dry, she looked at Si Fan with tears in her eyes and said, ¡°Fan, don¡¯t be agitated. Let me explain.¡±


    Si Fan sat on the sofa and gestured for Yin MO to continue.


    ¡°Although Blue Fox has long been a mature company, something has happened recently, so it¡¯s not going well. Xintao is developing even faster at this moment¡­ Of course, perhaps that¡¯s because it has just started and can only move upward in the beginning!¡± Yin MO added when she saw Si Fan¡¯s expression.


    Seeing that Si Fan had no other reaction, she heaved a sigh of relief and continued, ¡°I¡¯ve spoken to Liu Ying. She said that although she¡¯s on my sister¡¯s side now, on account that we¡¯ve been good friends for many years, she told me a perfect solution..

 Chapter 286 - Chapter 286: Apologize After The Fight

    Chapter 286: Apologize After The Fight


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°Compared to the funds that Blue Fox needs, my money is just a drop in the bucket. Even if I give it all to you, it will be useless in the end. Therefore, she suggested that I use this money to invest in my sister first. When there¡¯s a dividend in the future and I get more money, I¡¯ll use this money to invest in you.¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s face was full of grievance. She was clearly thinking for Si Fan¡¯s sake, but why was Si Fan still so angry?


    Hearing Yin Mols words, Si Fan became even angrier.


    Yin MO was horribly stupid. She did not even know that she had been tricked.


    Since her money was useless to Blue Fox, it was even more useless to Xintao. Liu Ying was deliberately scamming her out of her money. Even if Yin MO earned something in the end, according to the ratio, she would not get much!


    Moreover, since Yin MO was spending her allowance, it meant that she had no money now, and she had fallen out with her family. In other words¡­


    Indeed, in the next second, Yin MO said, ¡°Fan, for your sake, I invested all my money into my sister. I fell out with my family again. My father looks very angry. He might not continue to give me pocket money in the future. So, Fan, can you support me in the future?¡¯


    Si Fan was very sensitive about money now. He had to worry about getting investments every day. At this moment, not only did Yin MO not help him solve his problem, but she also added such a large burden to him!


    However, Yin MO was still useful. He could not give up on her yet.


    At the thought of this, Si Fan hurriedly made a show of concern for Yin Mo. ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯m sorry for what happened just now. I was too agitated and hurt you. Don¡¯t blame me, okay? If you¡¯re angry, you can hit me. Hit me as hard as you


    Si Fan grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s hand and slapped his own face with it.


    Yin MO was not angry to begin with. After hearing Si Fan apologize to her, the last bit of discomfort disappeared. How could she bear to hit Si Fan? She loved Si Fan so much.


    ¡°Fan, I know you¡¯re anxious. Your original intention wasn¡¯t to hit me; you just wanted to find a solution. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely help you. As long as there¡¯s anything you can use me for, just let me know.¡± Not only did Yin MO not blame Si Fan, but she was even blaming herself in her heart. She thought that her uselessness had made Si Fan very sad.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mo¡¯er. I¡¯ve tried my best to give you a better life, but because of your sister, I don¡¯t know what to do now. Yin Xun is your biological sister. I don¡¯t want to hurt her. I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll be sad, but she doesn¡¯t seem to be thinking about you. She just watches you being sandwiched in the middle of the fighting. I really feel sorry for you¡­¡±


    As Si Fan spoke, he pulled Yin MO into his arms. His voice was helpless and sad, but his eyes, which were facing away from Yin MO, were filled with vicious ideas.


    Yin MO believed Si Fan¡¯s words. Her heart ached and she felt helpless. Coupled with the wound on her face touching Si Fan¡¯s chest, the pain was so great that she could not help but sob slightly.


    ¡°Fan, I¡¯ll try again for you. I¡¯ll talk to my sister¡­¡± Yin MO stood up and was about to take her phone.


    However, Si Fan stopped her and said, ¡°Mo¡¯er, if you don¡¯t have any bargaining chips, then it¡¯s useless no matter how many nice words you say. You should know very well how ruthless your sister is, right?¡±


    ¡°Then what should we do?¡± Yin Mo¡¯s voice trembled slightly.


    Si Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. When he saw Yin Mols anxious look, he immediately had an idea.


    He looked at Yin MO affectionately and asked her, ¡°Mo¡¯er, are you really willing to do anything for me? If your sister kicks up a fuss with you because of this, will you blame me?¡±


    Yin MO shook her head. ¡°Of course not. Fan, I¡¯ve said it before. You¡¯re the most important person in my heart. We¡¯re going to get married in the future, so we¡¯re family already.¡±


    Si Fan finally smiled. ¡°Do you know Mary?¡± he asked.


    ¡°Mary? Of course. Isn¡¯t she my sister¡¯s assistant?¡± Yin MO nodded. Mary¡¯s personality was very similar to Yin Xun¡¯s, so she had a deep impression of this person.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s the one. The reason your sister is so heartless now has a lot to do with her. This is what I think. Since Mary is your sister¡¯s right-hand man, we¡¯ll let Mary help us. She knows a lot of secrets and has the leeway to do what she wants.¡±


    Si Fan told Yin MO about his plan. Although Yin MO felt that it was not a good idea, Si Fan only needed to fake a pitiful look and say how much he loved her for Yin MO to immediately agree.


    After that, she took out her phone and called Yin Xun. She planned to threaten Yin Xun according to Si Fan¡¯s request.


    Unexpectedly, Yin Xun did not listen to her at all and hung up the phone. The threats were useless.


    ¡°Fan, look¡­¡± Yin MO held up her phone and looked at Si Fan, not knowing what to do..

    ¡°Since she doesn¡¯t care, we don¡¯t need to inform her. We¡¯ll just do it directly. This way, we¡¯ll have a greater chance of success. By the time she finds out that all the trade secrets have been stolen, it¡¯ll be too late.¡± Si Fan¡¯s gaze was ruthless, and his tone was dark.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Si Fan pulled Yin MO back into his embrace. ¡°I still have something important for you to do, and only you can do it. But now is not the time. I¡¯ll tell you when the time is right. This matter has something to do with your Yin family, so Mo¡¯er¡­¡±


    Si Fan tried his best to look affectionate as he instructed Yin Mo, ¡°You must not fall out with your family. For now, go back and visit your parents more often and get closer to them. Otherwise, you won¡¯t be able to help me with this. Mo¡¯er, don¡¯t worry. For our future, I will definitely work hard. You must help me too.¡±


    ¡°Alright, Fan¡­¡±


    Yin MO was very touched as she raised her head and looked at Si Fan¡¯s affectionate expression. She slowly closed her eyes as if she wanted to ask for a kiss.


    Si Fan¡¯s expression suddenly turned ugly. He knew what Yin MO wanted, but before he came back, he had already been squeezed dry by Zhou Meng. Now, he did not have any energy or mood.


    He pretended not to understand. He lowered his head and kissed Yin Mols forehead gently. Then, he said, ¡°1 was busy last night. I¡¯m too tired now. I need to rest.¡± After saying that, he turned around and walked toward the bedroom.


    Yin MO looked at Si Fan¡¯s disinterested expression. Although she was grudging, she could not force Si Fan for something like this. She had no choice but to give up.


    Yin MO had not rested well either. She went to rest with Si Fan. The two of them lay on the bed in each other¡¯s arms. The curtains in the room were not drawn, and the glow of the setting sun shone in through the large French windows, coating the two of them with a warm orange glow. The scene was actually very sweet.


    Si Fan already had a new way to deal with Yin Xun, but Yin Xun did not know about it.


    Tan Ai¡¯s driving skills were very good. Soon, they arrived at the Ge¡¯er Hotel where the Fang family was holding a banquet. It was indeed a five-star hotel under the Fang family¡¯s name. From the outside, it looked like a luxurious palace.


    Accompanied by Tan Ai, Yin Xun changed into her gown before entering. She arrived just in time, and there were already several guests there. Yin Xun silently followed those people, wanting to enter together.


    At the door, a waiter checked their invitations. After everyone showed it, they were ushered in. Only Yin Xun was requested by the waiter to wait before entering. He asked the waiter beside him to go in and call for assistance.


    Yin Xun and Tan Ai looked at each other. Tan Ai shook her head, indicating that she did not know what was going on either.


    After waiting for about two minutes, Butler He, who had delivered the letter during the day, leisurely walked over.


    ¡°Miss Yin, I am very sorry. I had something on just now, so I was delayed. I made you wait for a long time. Please follow me in.¡± Butler He led the way for Yin Xun.


    After entering, Yin Xun realized that it was a little different from what she had imagined.


    When she looked at the hotel from the outside, the decorations were gorgeous, like a palace from the last century. She thought that the interior was also luxurious, but when she came in, she realized that it was actually a low-key and elegant style.


    Yin Xun admired the view as she walked. However, after walking for a while, she realized that Butler He was taking her in a different direction from the other guests. She could not help but feel puzzled. Did he not say that they were going to attend the banquet? Why did he not go straight to the banquet hall? Could it be that Fang Yao¡¯s mother wanted to see her right now?


    Puzzled, Yin Xun asked, ¡°Butler He, where are we going?¡±


    Butler He had a smile on his face the entire time. He politely explained, ¡®Miss Yin, please don¡¯t misunderstand. There is someone who wants to see you now. She asked me to bring you over directly. She will personally bring you to the banquet hall later.


    The person the butler was talking about was obviously not Mrs. Fang. Since Mrs. Fang had invited her in the first place, if she wanted to see her, she would not need to be so mysterious. Then who could it be?


    Yin Xun was puzzled, but she did not show it on her face.


    The butler clearly did not want to tell her who that person was. Otherwise, he would have said it by now. Yin Xun knew that even if she asked now, he would not say it. There was no need to ask for trouble.


    The hotel was huge. They walked for a few minutes before stopping at the closed door of a lounge.


    ¡°Miss Yin, the person is inside. I will leave first. If you need anything, you can contact me anytime.¡± Butler He bade farewell to Yin Xun.


    After seeing the butler leave, Yin Xun walked forward and knocked on the door twice. Soon, the door was opened from the inside.


    Yin Xun smiled and was about to greet the person when she saw who was inside. Her smile froze on her face..

    ¡®What¡¯s wrong? Are you disappointed to see me? Don¡¯t tell me you think Fang Yao is the one looking for you?¡¯ Qu Lu stood at the door in an elegant gown. Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s unnatural expression, she sneered and asked.


    The surprise only lasted for a while before Yin Xun quickly returned to normal. She smiled and said, ¡°No, I¡¯m just a little surprised. I didn¡¯t expect you to be the one looking for me.¡±


    ¡°Other than me, who else would look for you? Do you think the Fang Family is a small family like the Si Family and the Xing Family? In the eyes of the Fang Family, someone of your level is like an ant. No one will care about you.¡± Qu Lu snorted coldly as she mocked Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun was not angered by her words. With a polite smile on her face, she asked, ¡°Miss Qu, did you ask me to come here just to show off how powerful the Fang family is? If that¡¯s the case, there¡¯s no need for you to trouble yourself. Everyone knows the Fang family¡¯s status.¡±


    At this moment, Yin Xun¡¯s heart was filled with thoughts of meeting a big shot. She did not want to play a show-off game with Qu Lu. Hence, she wanted to brush Qu Lu off with a few words before heading to the banquet hall.


    If it were any other time, Yin Xun would have turned around and left. However, this time was different. Butler He was the Fang Family¡¯s butler. From what


    Lady Fang had said, the fact that he obeyed Qu Lu meant that Qu Lu and Mrs. Fang had a special relationship.


    As long as Qu Lu did not do anything overboard, Yin Xun did not want to fall out with her. It was just a glib talk. Even if Qu Lu took advantage of her, what could she lose?


    Yin Xun only had one principle. Someone could insult her to their heart¡¯s content, but they absolutely could not insult her money! As long as it had nothing to do with money, she did not care.


    ¡®Yin Xun, do you know who I am?¡± When Qu Lu saw Yin Xun¡¯s nonchalant expression, anger rose in her heart.


    She cursed silently. Was Yin Xun actually stupid or was she pretending to be stupid? Butler He was the Fang family¡¯s butler. She had already ordered the butler around like this, but Yin Xun had not realized that her identity was special!


    ¡°I don¡¯t,¡± Yin Xun replied indifferently.


    Actually, she had secretly investigated Qu Lu, but she did not want to cause trouble for herself, so she could only say that she did not know.


    After all, Qu Lu had never revealed her identity to her. If she said that she knew, it would expose the fact that she had investigated her.


    ¡°I¡¯m the eldest daughter of the Qu Family and I¡¯m going to marry into the Fang Family in the future. Uncle Fang and Aunt Fang have long treated me as their daughter-in-law. I advise you to give up and stay away from Fang Yao in the future! This time, Aunt Fang called you over to tell you about this.¡± Qu Lu glared at Yin Xun. ¡°If you covet something that doesn¡¯t belong to you, you¡¯ll suffer retribution.¡±


    Two waiters pushed a food cart past them. As expected of a high-end hotel¡ª even though there was a huge commotion here, the two waiters did not tilt their heads to look over from the beginning to the end. They kept staring straight ahead until they left.


    Yin Xun praised them in her heart. They were true professionals; they did not watch the guests make a fool of themselves.


    After she was done praising them, she looked at Qu Lu and asked, ¡°So your relationship is.


    Qu Lu puffed out her chest and raised her chin proudly. ¡°I¡¯m his fianc¨¦e!¡¯


    After saying that, she pointed at Yin Xun. ¡°Our relationship is recognized by both families. Perhaps he likes you, but that doesn¡¯t matter. A family marriage doesn¡¯t care about his preferences. It only depends on whether the partner is suitable. In terms of family background, looks, and education, no one is more suitable for Yao than me.


    ¡°Our marriage has already been decided by our parents, so if you continue to pester him, you¡¯ll be a mistress! I advise you to understand the situation. Have you ever seen a mistress end up well? For your own safety, you¡¯d better leave him quickly, lest even your family suffers in the end. ¡®


    Qu Lu¡¯s words were a little harsh. Yin Xun frowned slightly and wanted to retort. However, she suddenly recalled that she had indeed pretended to be


    Fang Yao¡¯s girlfriend before. At that time, she had thought that Qu Lu and Fang Yao had nothing to do with each other.


    If Qu Lu was really Fang Yao¡¯s fianc¨¦e, then Yin Xun would be in the wrong.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll stay away from him. I wish you both happiness.¡±


    ¡°Let me tell you, you¡¯d better not¡­ Huh?¡± Qu Lu had wanted to threaten Yin Xun further, but she did not expect her to agree so readily. She was instantly stunned and did not know how to react.. ¡°You¡¯re agreeing just like that?¡¯

 Chapter 289 - Chapter 289: Assumed Yin Xun Was A Mistress

    Chapter 289: Assumed Yin Xun Was A Mistress


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun tilted her head. ¡°What else? I don¡¯t make a hobby of snatching other people¡¯s boyfriends. Besides, we have nothing to do with each other. We¡¯re just neighbors. As for what happened in the past, I only said we¡¯re a couple because he was asking for help. I don¡¯t know the details. Since you¡¯re so close, go ask him about it. I won¡¯t get involved in your relationship.¡±


    Qu Lu had not expected things to progress so smoothly. She had even prepared many ways to deal with Yin Xun, but now it seemed that she would not be able to use them.


    ¡°Can you guarantee that you will never be with Yao and get close to him again?¡± Qu Lu was still a little worried and wanted Yin Xun to make a vow.


    However, Yin Xun was not in the mood. She rejected the idea. ¡°l can¡¯t. I can only tell you that we don¡¯t have any sketchy relationship. If you like him, then go after him, by all means. I¡¯ve already said that it doesn¡¯t concern me. Whether he responds to your feelings or makes an excuse to reject you has nothing to do with me.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression was serious when she said this. She did not look like she was lying or joking at all.


    Qu Lu opened her mouth. She wanted to say something, but when she saw Yin Xun¡¯s expression, she swallowed her words.


    ¡°Then¡­ then you can go to the banquet¡­¡± Qu Lu finally stopped pestering Yin


    Xun. However, she was still worried and added, ¡°If you really give up on him, I¡¯ll let you go. If you continue to pester him, however, then I won¡¯t go easy on you!¡±


    Yin Xun did not even turn around to respond. She waved her hand casually. She did not care about such things.


    To her, the greatest joy in life was to earn money. Whether it was a man or someone else, it did not matter.


    After Yin Xun left, Qu Lu was still thinking about this matter. She lowered her head and muttered to herself, ¡°Why did she agree so readily? It shouldn¡¯t be.. ¡±


    Yin Xun followed the same path the guests walked based on memory. After walking for a while, she finally arrived at the banquet hall. At this moment, the banquet had already begun. Melodious and elegant piano music sounded in the hall. In the middle of the room was the dance floor, where couple of old-looking men and women were dancing. There were people around watching them dance with smiles on their faces. The were applauding and praising them.


    There were also people gathered in groups of twos and threes, all raising their glasses and chatting. They seemed to be having a good time.


    Yin Xun looked around. Sure enough, she did not know any of these people. However, she had seen them on television and reports. They were all leading figures in various circles.


    No one knew Yin Xun, so she was left alone. No one came to talk to her.


    Everyone present had their own companions, but Yin Xun did not. However , she did not mind. This way, she could observe these people without worry. If they were future business partners, she could understand their preferences in advance.


    Not long after, Qu Lu arrived as well. She no longer had the arrogant expression she had when she was in front ofYin Xun. Instead, she had a gentle and generous smile on her face. As soon as she arrived, many people crowded around her.


    Qu Lu intentionally stood not far away from Yin Xun. When others were talking to her, her eyes were fixed on Yin Xun.


    ¡°Hey, Lulu, whose daughter is that girl? Why haven¡¯t I seen her before? You¡¯ve been looking at her a lot. Do you know her?¡± a girl with black and straight hair asked.


    A short-haired girl also followed Qu Lu¡¯s gaze and asked curiously, ¡°Why is she alone there? Does she not know anyone?¡±


    Hearing her friends¡¯ questions, Qu Lu¡¯s lips curled up slightly. Great, she had achieved his goal.


    She looked at Yin Xun deeply and said helplessly, ¡°I heard that she has always been very close to Yao. Perhaps she doesn¡¯t like us, so she doesn¡¯t greet us.¡±


    ¡®What? She¡¯s close to Young Master Fang?¡± The long black-haired woman was shocked. ¡°She¡¯s that mistress who interfered in your relationship with Young


    Master Fang? What¡¯s her identity? I don¡¯t see her wearing any jewelry. Even the gown she¡¯s wearing is a pre-made product. She lacks taste and is dressed so plainly. Don¡¯t tell me she¡¯s some peasant trying to climb up the social ladder?¡¯


    The short-haired girl chimed in, ¡°Who in the circle doesn¡¯t know that you and Young Master Fang have been engaged for ages? Both families have already arranged a marriage. Although the two of you not married yet, it¡¯s already been set in stone. How could she try to snatch your man? My father lost his mind because of a vixen like that. He sired an illegitimate child and still wanted to snatch take away my inheritence. I hate mistresses like that above anything else!¡±


    ¡°To be fair, she has her own difficulties. She probably just likes Yao. Because of her identity and background, she probably doesn¡¯t know the twists and turns in our families.. So¡­¡±

 Chapter 290 - Chapter 290: The Person You Saved

    Chapter 290: The Person You Saved


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Qu Lu pretended to be gentle and weak, sounding like she was defending Yin Xun. When she reached the end of her sentence, she appeared sad. She suddenly choked and covered her face, unable to continue. She looked depressed and pitiful.


    Seeing Qu Lu like this, her friends became even angrier.


    They were on rather good terms with Qu Lu. Now that they saw Qu Lu being bullied by Yin Xun, they were eager to avenge her.


    Seeing that her friends wanted to stand up for her, Qu Lu quickly pretended to stop them. ¡°Don¡¯t make things difficult for her. She¡¯s actually a very nice person.¡±


    Qu Lu was very close to Yin Xun and did not lower her voice when she spoke. Hence, even though the piano was playing in the hall, Yin Xun could still hear their conversation.


    She did not expect Qu Lu to be such a ¡°green tea b*tch¡±! She pretended to be a fragile little flower in front of her friends, but her true nature was exposed. She even played such a lowly and childish trick. It was really¡­ interesting!


    Yin Xun had never seen such a character in real life. Usually, she would only see something like this on television or in novels. The only other dainty flower by her side was Yin MO, but Yin MO was not as scheming as Qu Lu. She was just an idiot.


    Would Qu Lu¡¯s friends be making things difficult for her now?


    Yin Xun casually picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite. It tasted good and she was hungry. She could eat a few more pieces. She did not pay attention to the others. They could say whatever they wanted to be happy.


    Yin Xun did not want to cause trouble now. After receiving a glass of red wine from the waiter, she planned to sit at the side for a while.


    She only wanted to meet Fang Yao¡¯s mother and see if she had any ideas about her project. She just did not know when they would meet.


    Yin Xun hoped that she would not attract too much attention, though those people did not intend to let her off.


    The two other girls walked toward Yin Xun with Qu Lu between them. When they reached Yin Xun, Qu Lu suddenly stopped in her tracks and said nothing.


    The other girls who were originally surrounding her stood on the spot and planned to watch the show.


    The two friends thought that Qu Lu was too scared to take action. Seeing that she was not moving, they left her behind and walked toward Yin Xun.


    ¡®What¡¯s your name? Which family are you from?¡± The short-haired girl came in front of Yin Xun and asked in an unfriendly tone. As she spoke, she secretly winked at the long-haired girl.


    The long-haired girl nodded slightly and slipped away while everyone¡¯s attention was on the short-haired girl.


    Faced with the short-haired girl¡¯s question, Yin Xun sighed in her heart. She did not expect to be caught up in such a melodramatic thing.


    Qu Lu was not an easy person to deal with. Yin Xun had already said that she had nothing to do with Fang Yao, yet Qu Lu still did this¡­ Since that was the case, she would be letting Qu Lu down if she did not retaliate.


    ¡°Hey, it¡¯s you. You¡¯re here too!¡±


    Just as Yin Xun opened her mouth, a voice interrupted her. Shortly after that, a girl in an aqua-blue short skirt jumped in front of her and greeted her with a smile.


    The girl was very beautiful. She looked very young, about the same age as Yin Rui. Her face was small and round, and her big eyes were dark and bright. Yin Xun felt that she looked a little familiar. She felt that she had seen her somewhere before. Even her voice was familiar.


    ¡°Are you talking to me?¡¯ Yin Xun asked the girl uncertainly.


    The girl smiled and said, ¡®That¡¯s right. You don¡¯t know me? I¡¯m the person you saved. Back then, you saved me from human traffickers. If not for you, I don¡¯t know what would have happened to me now!¡±


    At the mention of human traffickers, Yin Xun immediately remembered that she had saved a girl back then. It was just that the girl was dressed maturely back then and looked very different from now.


    Looking at her, Yin Xun also smiled. ¡°So it¡¯s you. What a coincidence. I didn¡¯t expect to see you here. ¡®


    ¡°My name is Qu Lin. Since we¡¯re fated to meet again, why don¡¯t we go and hang out after the banquet is over?¡¯ Qu Lin asked with a smile.


    ¡°Linlin, she¡¯s the girl who bullied your sister. How can you be so close to her?¡± The short-haired girl interrupted when she saw Qu Lin and Yin Xun talking so intimately.


    Qu Lin, Qu Lu, and Yin Xun glanced back and forth between each other. No wonder their surnames were the same. They were sisters.


    ¡°How did Sister Yin Xun bully you?¡± Qu Lin looked at Qu Lu and asked.


    ¡°She¡¯s snatching your sister¡¯s man. Your sister and Young Master Fang are already engaged. But this girl is behaving like a mistress!¡± The short-haired girl was furious.


    ¡°I was asking you, but you let others answer on your behalf.. Can¡¯t you talk?¡¯

    Qu Lin, who was chatting happily with Yin Xun a moment ago, turned to look at Qu Lu. Her expression instantly changed to one of disdain. Her face was filled with impatience.


    Qu Lu looked very afraid of Qu Lin. She explained weakly, ¡°No, it¡¯s not that. I just haven¡¯t had the chance to say it yet. ¡®


    The relationship between the two sisters was a bit unusual. Yin Xun raised her eyebrows in surprise. Something was wrong¡ªfrom the looks of it, their relationship seemed to be worse than hers and Yin MOs.


    ¡°Then tell me. Didn¡¯t I give you a chance?¡¯ Qu Lin urged impatiently.


    ¡°I,    Qu Lu looked very nervous. She could not utter a complete sentence for a long time, which made Qu Lin even more impatient.


    She flashed a disgusted expression and said, ¡°Qu Lu, why are you pretending to be a pitiful white flower in front of me? Do you think I don¡¯t know what kind of person you are?¡¯


    ¡°No, that¡¯s not it. I¡¯m sorry, Younger Sister. I must have misunderstood Miss Yin¡­¡± Qu Lu lowered her head. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and it was hard to hear her clearly from afar.


    Qu Lin said impatiently, ¡°Qu Lu, it doesn¡¯t matter if it¡¯s a misunderstanding or not. I¡¯m asking you to explain everything clearly. If she bullied you, tell me how she bullied you. If she didn¡¯t, apologize to Sister Yin Xun. Don¡¯t pretend to be innocent and cause others to gossip! ¡±


    Qu Lin¡¯s behavior was too aggressive. The short-haired girl could not stand it anymore and stood up for Qu Lu. ¡°Linlin, aren¡¯t you being too fierce to Lulu? She¡¯s your sister. Can¡¯t you be more patient with her?¡±


    At this moment, the long-haired girl returned too. She stood beside Qu Lu and looked at them without saying a word.


    Qu Lin sneered and glanced at the short-haired woman. ¡°Ding Shan, make yourself clear. When did I bully her? If you¡¯re maligning someone, you have to ask for evidence. I was just asking when she was bullied. Is there a problem with that? Are you in such a hurry to accuse me? No wonder you¡¯re good friends. You¡¯re all the same type. Whatever happens, you¡¯re bad-mouthing someone.¡±


    ¡°I wasn¡¯t! Yin Xun was the one who bullied Qu Lu first!¡¯ Ding Shan explained righteously.


    ¡°That¡¯s why I asked you to tell me the reason. How did she bully her? When? Why?¡¯ Qu Lin asked a series of questions in one breath, and they were all within reason.


    ¡°If you can¡¯t tell me the reason, why don¡¯t we go to Auntie and discuss it with her? Let her know how you treat the guests she invites. And you¡­¡± Qu Lin looked at Qu Lu and said, ¡°Don¡¯t forget that you have always acted as a gentle and sensible person in front of others. If Auntie finds out that you went out of your way to bully her guests, what do you think she will think of you?¡±


    Qu Lin¡¯s words instantly took effect. Qu Lu quickly explained, ¡°No, no, you don¡¯t have to say anymore, Lil Shan. Miss Yin did not do that on purpose. She must have her own difficulties¡­¡±


    When Ding Shan saw that Qu Lu had been so frightened by Qu Lin, she felt even more indignant.


    ¡°That girl is fighting with your sister for Young Master Fang! Everyone in our circle knows that your two families want the two of them to be together. When they were young, they were already arranged to get married. But now, this girl¡¯s pestering Young Master Fang all day long, and she kept doing it even after she found out about Young Master Fang and Lulu¡¯s relationship. She¡¯s trying to be his mistress, isn¡¯t she?¡¯ Ding Shan looked at Yin Xun with disgust in her eyes.


    When she thought of what had happened to her in the past and how she had to fight for the family assets with her illegitimate stepbrother, and how her mother had fallen sick from anger because of her illegitimate son, she clenched her fists tightly. It was all because of that shameless mistress. She wished she could kill all the mistresses in the world.


    Hearing Ding Shan¡¯s words, Qu Lin was amused. She smiled and asked, ¡°Hehe, Ding Shan, did you ask Fang Yao for his opinion?¡¯


    ¡®What?¡± Ding Shan was confused.


    Qu Lin said, ¡°Firstly, Qu Lu and Fang Yao are not engaged. Secondly, they are not even in a relationship. He is currently single. Why can¡¯t he be close to other girls? Is there a problem? Is it because of Qu Lin¡¯s wishful thinking that Fang Yao has to keep his chastity?¡¯


    ¡°This¡­¡± Qu Lin¡¯s words did not seem wrong. Fang Yao had never personally said that he was dating Qu Lu, so she could not refute Qu Lin¡¯s words.


    However, there was still one thing. People born in these families could not control their marriage anyway.


    It was useless for Fang Yao to like someone else. The family would only care about whether his partner would be useful to the family. Therefore, even if Fang Yao liked Yin Xun, there was no hope for them. Qu Lu had already been approved by the parents of both parties, so she was a decent partner. This had nothing to do with Fang Yao¡¯s preferences.


    However, Qu Lu and Fang Yao were not married yet, and they might not have any feelings for each other. It seemed like Yin Xun should not be considered a mistress, in this case..

    In just a moment, Ding Shan thought of many things. However, she was not good at arguing and did not know how to refute Qu Lin.


    She had no choice but to look at the long-haired girl for help. ¡®Wu Fei, tell her that Lulu is the innocent one.¡±


    Ding Shan was not good at speaking, but Wu Fei was. Usually, when everyone quarreled, it was Wu Fei who helped Qu Lin the most.


    However, this time, Wu Fei only looked at Yin Xun indifferently without any reaction on her face.


    ¡°Wu Fei?¡± Ding Shan called out again when she saw that Wu Fei did not respond.


    ¡°Hmm?¡± Wu Fei suddenly regained her senses. ¡°Since Lulu already said that this matter has nothing to do with Miss Yin, then let¡¯s not blame her anymore. ¡®


    Not only did Wu Fei not speak up for Ding Shan, she even spoke up for Yin Xun.


    Ding Shan frowned in confusion. Why was this different from what they had agreed on in the beginning? At that time, Wu Fei had clearly told her that she wanted to teach Yin Xun a lesson. Why did she suddenly change her mind?


    Wu Fei did not intend to explain. She only shook her head at Ding Shan, indicating for her to stop talking.


    Then, she turned around and looked at Qu Lin. The corners of her lips curled up into a smile. The two of them looked at each other. Qu Lin was surprised at first, but she immediately understood what Wu Fei meant.


    Qu Lin had always been at odds with this group of people. She could immediately tell if something was wrong with them.


    At this moment, seeing the interaction between the two of them, Qu Lin pulled Yin Xun¡¯s hand and introduced her to them. ¡°This Miss Yin Xun is my savior. From now on, you should think of her as my good sister. Whoever bullies her is picking a fight with me. It¡¯s up to you.¡±


    With that, Qu Lin pulled Yin Xun to the other side of the banquet hall.


    At this moment, a waiter walked past Wu Fei with a red wine tray. When he passed by Wu Fei, their eyes met. The waiter nodded slightly and walked toward Yin Xun.


    ¡°Thank you for earlier.¡± Yin Xun smiled and thanked Qu Lin.


    Qu Lin smiled and shook her head. ¡°1 should be the one thanking you. If you hadn¡¯t helped me back then, I might have died now.¡± Thinking of the consequences of being kidnapped by human traffickers, Qu Lin could not help but shiver.


    It had been so long since that incident. Thinking about the situation that day, she was still so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.


    Qu Lin had lived under the protection of the servants since she was young. Her family doted on her and she had never suffered much. In the past, she had only seen human traffickers on the news and had never paid attention to the fate of the people who were captured. However, she knew one thing. She could not afford to be captured.


    After she went back that day, she investigated some relevant cases. When she saw what happened to girls who disappeared, she realized how much Yin Xun had helped her.


    The victims would be sold to some remote mountain village as child- bearing machines. After they lost their value, their organs would be harvested and sold, and they would be kept around just as a supply of blood. At that time, their lives would be worse than death.


    ¡°We¡¯re all girls, after all. It won¡¯t end well for us if we¡¯re captured by human traffickers. Anyone would help in this matter.¡± Yin Xun originally wanted to say that it was a coincidence, but she suddenly thought of Qu Lin¡¯s identity and changed her mind.


    Since Qu Lin was from the Qu family, she must be very rich. Yin Xun could ask Qu Lin if she wanted to invest in her and become business partners.


    Instantly, Yin Xun looked at Qu Lin with a burning gaze, like a cat spotting a


    If Qu Lin agreed to collaborate with her, she would have another sugar parent. This was a very good opportunity. She had to seize it. With another backer, she would have more power to suppress Si Fan in the future. At that time, even if Si Fan had the protection of being the protagonist, she was confident that she could defeat him.


    Yin Xun stared at Qu Lin with a faint smile on her face. For some reason, she felt that Qu Lin was already very close to her. It was as if they were soulmates who had met too late. However, the only flaw was that Qu Lin was on the young side.


    Qu Lin,         Why did she suddenly feel a chill down her spine?


    ¡°How old are you?¡± Yin Xun suddenly asked.


    ¡°Seventeen years old. What¡¯s wrong?¡± Qu Lin did not understand why Yin Xun would suddenly ask about her age.


    ¡°She¡¯s not an adult yet¡­¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was rather wistful. Since that was the case, there was no point in talking about investing for the time being. What a pity, what a pity. However, she could save herself a spot early. After all, there was still a year before she became an adult.


    Facing Qu Lin¡¯s puzzled expression, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just suddenly thought of my brother. He¡¯s the same age as you. By the way, are you interested in doing business?¡±


    ¡°Originally, I wasn¡¯t interested,¡± Qu Lin said. ¡°But now that I¡¯m more into it, I¡¯m learning too. Otherwise, my rightful assets will be snatched away by the person I hate the most..¡±

    Qu Lin did not specify who it was. However, Yin Xun had already guessed it when she saw the strife between her and Qu Lu.


    Biological sisters were being enemies. This kind of situation was not common unless something major had happened between the two of them in the past, just like how the animosity between Yin MO and her was caused by Si Fan.


    Since she and Qu Lin had just met, they were not close enough to pry into each other¡¯s privacy. Hence, Yin Xun did not plan to ask in detail. She only asked Qu Lin about her plans to do business.


    ¡°Are you interested in investing in a project?¡± Hearing Qu Lin saying that she was interested in doing business, Yin Xun quickly seized the opportunity to ask.


    ¡®What kind of investment?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly. Her chance had come.


    She pulled Qu Lin to sit down and asked enthusiastically, ¡°If there¡¯s a project that will definitely make a lot of money in the future, will you invest in it?¡¯


    ¡°No,¡± Qu Lin answered without hesitation.


    YinXun, ¡±


    She had just said that she was interested in business investments. Now that she was told that she could earn a lot of money, why did she reject it so bluntly?


    Qu Lin continued, ¡°My father said that there¡¯s no business that can be profitable without losing money, especially when it¡¯s one that promises to make a lot of money before it even starts. It sounds like a lie. Only a fool would fall for it. Investments are risky. You can¡¯t just listen to how much money you can earn. You also have to analyze how risky this project is. If you lose money, how can you minimize the damage? You should consider things from the worst perspective. ¡®


    Qu Lin spoke logically, and Yin Xun could not help but praise her internally. No wonder she said that she wanted to fight for the family assets. She was really smart. Seeing such a rational person like Qu Lin, Yin Xun liked her even more. With such a partner, it would be much less troublesome in the future.


    However, Qu Lin was not an adult yet, so it was a little early to talk about such things.


    Yin Xun thought that she should take this opportunity to get closer to her. Even if the two of them did not cooperate in the end, having such a friend would be beneficial.


    ¡®You¡¯re right. I didn¡¯t expect you to have such an understanding of business at such a young age,¡± Yin Xun said sincerely.


    ¡°It¡¯s because I was raised by my father as his successor since I was young. When it comes to business matters, he has always taught me step by step,¡± Qu Lin replied.


    ¡°Pardon me for asking, but how many siblings do you have?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Qu Lin stretched out two fingers and said, ¡®Two. Only Qu Lu and I.¡±


    With that, Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Are you curious why the successor is me and not my sister?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun nodded and did not hide her curiosity at all. ¡°However, every family has their own difficulties. This is very normal. I¡¯m just curious about the reason. I don¡¯t have to understand anything. If it¡¯s inconvenient, you don¡¯t have to say it.¡±


    ¡°Ha, what¡¯s so inconvenient about that? Everyone who¡¯s close to our family knows about this,¡± Qu Lin said. ¡°My sister was groomed to be a marriage partner, while I was groomed to be the family successor. The two of us just have different roles. Look, isn¡¯t she enjoying it? She¡¯s even fighting with you for Brother Fang Yao.¡±


    Qu Lin was talking about Qu Lu and Yin Xun.


    ¡°Look at how harmless she looks on the surface. In fact, she¡¯s not just ruthless. I don¡¯t have a good relationship with her. My parents are biased now, and she¡¯s the one who reaped the rewards. Don¡¯t think that she usually doesn¡¯t fight for things. In fact, she¡¯s very ambitious. One time, I overheard her trying to compete with me for the family assets. She said that she wants to have both Brother Fang Yao and the family assets. She wants to chase me out. How can this happen? I definitely won¡¯t let go.¡±


    At this point, Qu Lin¡¯s gaze gradually darkened. It could be seen that her hatred for Qu Lu was not as simple as it seemed.


    As for what happened between them, Qu Lin did not say anything more, and Yin Xun did not intend to ask. If she wanted to say it, Qu Lin would have said it directly without Yin Xun asking.


    In short, it was definitely not a small matter to anger Qu Lin to such an extent that even she even called her parents biased.


    Perhaps, when she and Qu Lin became good friends in the future, she would know this secret. However, she was not interested in it. It did not matter if she knew or not.


    ¡°By the way, why did you suddenly come to this banquet? I remember that the Fang family doesn¡¯t have any relationship with the Yin family, right?¡± Qu Lin asked curiously, ¡°Could it be that you were really dating Brother Fang Yao and were discovered by Auntie Fang?¡¯


    ¡°?¡± Yin Xun did not expect Qu Lin to misunderstand. She quickly explained, ¡°No, Fang Yao and I are just ordinary partners. The reason I was invited was to discuss a collaboration.¡¯


    Yin Xun deliberately revealed the purpose of her visit. As she spoke, she kept staring into Qu Lin¡¯s eyes..

    As expected, when Qu Lin heard about the collaboration, her eyes flashed for a moment before she immediately returned to normal.


    ¡°Collaboration?¡± Qu Lin¡¯s gaze gradually turned into admiration. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be so amazing. You can actually talk about cooperation with Auntie! Well, it¡¯s not that I¡¯m looking down on you. Under normal circumstances, Uncle and Auntie usually don¡¯t take a small company like your


    Yin family seriously.¡±


    Although these words did not sound like much, they were indeed the truth.


    ¡°Indeed, so I have to thank Fang Yao for speaking up for me.¡± Yin Xun did not mind Qu Lin¡¯s words at all. ¡°So, what do you think about working with me?¡±


    Yin Xun was testing Qu Lin¡¯s opinion of her. If Qu Lin was interested, she would tell her about the collaboration. If she was not interested and changed the topic, she would stop here. In the future, when the two of them had a better relationship, they would talk about this kind of thing more. They were not familiar with each other now, so it was normal for her to resist.


    It was mainly because she realized that Qu Lin was too smart. She could not use the same method of fooling Liu Ying to deal with her. Instead, she had to take things one step at a time.


    Qu Lin smiled and gave her a thumbs up. ¡°Brother Fang Yao has good taste. I believe you can definitely do it.¡±


    As expected, Yin Xun understood that Qu Lin did not want to talk to her about the collaboration. What a perfunctory praise. Yin Xun smiled mechanically.


    Since she did not want to talk about it, there was no need for her to continue this topic. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. She was not in a hurry, or it would backfire.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Xun raised her head and looked around. ¡°I¡¯ve never seen Madam Fang. No one has entertained me since I was invited here. I don ¡®t know when I¡¯ll see her.


    Qu Lin also raised her head and looked around. She said, ¡°Auntie isn¡¯t here yet.


    The banquet has just begun. Today is her birthday, so she might be a little late.


    Or perhaps she has something else to do.¡±


    ¡°Today is Madam¡¯s birthday!¡± Yin Xun exclaimed in surprise. No one had told her. She did not know that the first time they met would be on the other party¡¯s birthday. She did not even prepare a gift¡ªthat was really rude.


    Qu Lin was also surprised. ¡°You didn¡¯t know?¡± Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s expression, she immediately understood what she was thinking and comforted her. ¡°But you don¡¯t have to worry. Since Auntie didn¡¯t say anything, it means that she doesn¡¯t care about such things.¡±


    While the two of them were talking, a waitress walked over.


    Yin Xun¡¯s back was facing the waitress. The waitress walked behind Yin Xun and called out, ¡°Miss, someone wants to treat you to a glass of red wine.¡±


    Yin Xun turned around, not expecting the waiter to be so close to her. Caught off guard, she bumped into the tray in the waitress¡¯s hand, spilling the red wine on her chest.


    ¡°Hey, what are you doing!¡± Qu Lin turned around and scolded the waitress.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Miss. It¡¯s my fault. Why don¡¯t you come with me and I¡¯ll help you deal with this?¡± The waitress kept her head lowered. Her long hair fell down and covered her face.


    Yin Xun looked at the waitress and frowned. She felt that this person was different from the others she had seen today.


    The waitresses all had the same hairstyle. Their long hair was tied up or they had short hair. According to the rules of the fancy hotel, people with loose hair like this should not be allowed.


    She turned her head and saw Wu Fei and Qu Lu looking in her direction.


    When they saw that Yin Xun was also looking at them, they smiled meaningfully and turned around.


    Seeing this, Yin Xun immediately understood what was going on, and she instantly felt exasperated.


    It seemed that she had been targeted.


    Qu Lu was really the typical brainless and vicious side character in novels. She loved to use such petty tricks to deal with others. Yin Xun knew what she was doing. She wanted her clothes to become a mess so that she would leave a bad first impression on Fang Yao¡¯s mother.


    ¡°No need, it¡¯s fine.¡± Yin Xun rejected the waitress¡¯s offer and planned to wipe it with a napkin.


    ¡°I¡¯m really sorry. It¡¯s all my fault. You can punish me however you want, but please don¡¯t complain about me. I might lose my job.¡± The waitress bowed to Yin Xun and begged her.


    Yin Xun frowned. ¡°I said I¡¯m fine, but if you don¡¯t leave, I might change my mind about complaining about you.¡±


    There were already people looking over. Yin Xun did not want to attract too much attention.


    ¡°How could you make such a low-level mistake on such an important occasion? You deserve to receive complaints.¡± Qu Lin did not have any scruples. She said whatever she wanted to say. ¡®This is your mistake. You should bear the consequences yourself. You can¡¯t blame others for complaining about you, right?¡±


    When Qu Lu saw the commotion, she walked over with Ding Shan and Wu Fei.


    ¡®What happened? What happened?¡± Qu Lu asked with concern..

    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Qu Lin said angrily, ¡°What does this have to do with you? Why are you here?¡± She did not even try to hide her disgust for Qu Lu.


    When the waitress saw Qu Lu walking over, she finally raised her head. Her eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry. She said to Qu Lu, ¡°l accidentally spilled some wine on this lady just now. I wanted to help her with it, but she refused. I was afraid that she would complain about me, so I didn¡¯t dare to leave.¡±


    The waitress¡¯s voice was trembling as if he had been bullied. Yin Xun found her pitiful appearance very familiar.


    Suddenly, Yin Mo¡¯s figure appeared in her mind. She looked at the waitress. Sure enough, she looked exactly like Yin Mo. She looked really annoying.


    Qu Lin was not a pretentious person. Seeing that the waitress was pretending to be pitiful, she snorted and said, ¡°Do you think I¡¯m deaf? Sister Yin Xun said it¡¯s fine, but you¡¯re not leaving. You¡¯re pretending to be pitiful. Why? Do you still want Sister Yin Xun to compensate you? If you continue to spout nonsense, I¡¯ll get Auntie to fire you.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯ll leave now!¡± When the waitress heard that Qu Lin wanted to fire her, she immediately left.


    She knew the relationship between Qu Lin and the Fang family. As long as Qu Lin asked, she would definitely be fired.


    ¡°Oh my, how impressive. You haven¡¯t even announced your relationship with


    Young Master Fang, but you¡¯re already flaunting your authority. Why is that? Do you really think you¡¯ll become the Young Madam of the Fang family in the future?¡± Ding Shan looked at Yin Xun and mocked her.


    Yin Xun had finally decided to be gentle for once and ignored the provocations of others. However, the other party did not know how to repent and was taking advantage of her. If she did not do anything, she would be letting down her expensive gown.


    ¡°Linlin, I have something to deal with. I¡¯ll go to the side and make a call. I¡¯ll be back soon.¡± After Yin Xun and Qu Lin finished speaking, they went straight to the bathroom.


    Yin Xun took a look at the cubicles one by one and found that there was no one inside. Seeing this, she took out her phone and called Mi Jin¡­


    Seeing Yin Xun leave, Ding Shan became even more smug. She crossed her arms and said with disdain, ¡®You¡¯re feeling guilty, so you found a place with no one around to dig a hole for yourself. ¡®


    Qu Lin glanced at her from the corner of her eye and said, ¡°Unlike some people who are as thick-skinned and are willing to become our Qu family¡¯s dog for a small profit. Those people are really obedient.¡±


    Her words hit Ding Shan¡¯s sore spot. Ding Shan was flustered. She glared at Qu


    Lin with her big round eyes and asked, ¡°Who are you talking about?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m talking about people who are like dogs. What¡¯s the matter? Does someone disagree? If you¡¯re dissatisfied, hit me. Let¡¯s see if you dare. Your own company relied on our Qu family to rise, and now the daughter is a dog for our Qu family¡¯s daughter. Indeed, children inherit their parent¡¯s business. They¡¯re all the same¡­¡± Qu Lin¡¯s words became more and more unpleasant.


    When Wu Fei saw this, she quickly tried to smooth things over. ¡°Alright, alright. We¡¯re all friends here. Don¡¯t make things too ugly because of a random outsider. The two of you have short fuses. It¡¯s actually nothing serious. ¡®


    Ding Shan was so aggrieved that she almost cried. She stomped her feet twice and complained to Qu Lu. ¡°Lulu, look at your sister. You two are family, but she always speaks up for outsiders and even scolds me. Aren¡¯t you going to say something?¡±


    ¡°Alright, there are so many people here. Don¡¯t let others laugh at you.¡± Wu Fei pulled Ding Shan to her side and wiped her tears.


    Qu Lu looked at Ding Shan and then at Qu Lin. She sighed and said, ¡°Stop arguing. If Auntie finds out, she will be angry. Today is her birthday.¡± ¡°Linlin, Uncle Ding is our father¡¯s good friend. You can¡¯t say that about him.


    Also, Lil Shan grew up together with us and is basically half a sister to you. Have you forgotten how good she was to you when you were young? Don¡¯t scold her if she won¡¯t give in, okay?¡¯


    Qu Lu¡¯s tone was gentle. If it were anyone else, they would have felt embarrassed. Unfortunately, the other party was Qu Lin.


    Hearing Qu Lu¡¯s words, Qu Lin sneered. ¡°What happened when I was young? I remember it all too clearly. I will remember it for the rest of my life. How you treated me¡­¡±


    As Qu Lin spoke, her gaze was fixed on Qu Lu. Qu Lu¡¯s expression changed slightly under her gaze and she lost her confidence. She lowered her head and fell silent again.


    Seeing this, Ding Shan was greatly disappointed. She coaxed, ¡°Lulu, you¡¯re the elder sister. Are you so afraid of your younger sister? You¡¯re biological sisters with the same father and mother. Are you willing to be suppressed and beaten by your sister every day? You must resist. She¡¯s family. What¡¯s there to be afraid of?¡±


    ¡°I,Qu Lu was at a loss for words..

    Qu Lin looked at Ding Shan provocatively. ¡°How is it? My sister is so good at pretending to be pitiful. She only thinks of herself. As long as her interests are not violated, she won¡¯t argue. How about you be my dog? I¡¯ve always been very protective of my pets. Not only can I help you solve your business problems, but I¡¯ll also protect you from being bullied. ¡®


    Qu Lin¡¯s words were not polite at all. She said nasty things in her face. Every time she felt that she had gone overboard, she would think about what happened in the past and refuse to be apologetic. On the contrary, Qu Lin even felt that she was already gentle enough.


    ¡°Linlin, your words are a little too much. We did not really make things difficult for Miss Yin. Why are you overreacting?¡± Hearing Qu Lin scold Ding Shan so much, Wu Fei frowned.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Linlin. I shouldn¡¯t have come looking for you.¡± Qu Lu apologized. ¡°Feifei, Lil Shan, let¡¯s go over there.¡± Sighing, Qu Lu did not want to continue arguing with Qu Lin. She turned around and left.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Wu Fei pulled Ding Shan¡¯s hand and was about to leave.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Ding Shan did not move.


    Wu Fei said imploringly, ¡°Look at the situation here. Don¡¯t cause trouble for


    Lulu.¡±


    Ding Shan frowned as she looked at Qu Lin. She was not convinced, but she did not dare to fight Qu Lin head-on. She could only place her hopes on Qu Lu. She did not expect that Qu Lu would back out.


    Ding Shan felt a little disappointed. She had been scolded because she tried to help Qu Lu, but Qu Lu did not intervene. Ding Shan felt that she was overthinking things. She had no choice but to simply glare at Qu Lin before leaving with Wu Fei.


    ¡°Lulu, what are you afraid of Qu Lin for? You¡¯re her sister, how can you be suppressed by her like this?¡± Ding Shan chased after Qu Lu angrily and asked her in a low voice.


    Qu Lu walked to a corner and sat down. She sighed and explained, ¡°I¡¯ve been bullied since I was young, so I¡¯m already used to it. I couldn¡¯t beat her when I was young, and that¡¯s even more the case now. Perhaps I¡¯ll be fine after I marry


    Yao, but¡­¡±


    Qu Lu looked at Ding Shan apologetically. ¡°I can¡¯t help you with that matter.


    You know that Linlin likes to go against me in everything. I didn¡¯t expect her to hear about this too. That project¡­ was intercepted by her.¡¯


    ¡®What?!¡± Ding Shan stood up abruptly and said in disbelief, ¡°That¡¯s my project.


    Why would she snatch it away?¡±


    ¡°Because my parents love her more than me, and because she has more power at home than I do. If it weren¡¯t for my relationship with Yao, I¡¯m afraid I wouldn¡¯t even be able to stay at home. She would definitely chase me out.¡±


    The more Qu Lu spoke, the redder her eyes became. She covered her face with her hands and said, ¡°1 can tolerate all of this. As long as I successfully marry Yao in the end, my hard life will come to an end. When the time comes, I will be able to speak up and help you. But who would¡¯ve thought Yin Xun would appear out of nowhere? Every time I went to see Yao, she would pester him. She even said that she was Yao¡¯s girlfriend! How many men can resist a woman¡¯s constant pestering, especially a decent-looking girl?¡±


    ¡°Lil Shan, I think you know more about this than I do.¡± Qu Lu looked at Ding Shan.


    Everyone knew how much Ding Shan¡¯s father loved her mother in the past. Their love was well-known in the entire circle. However, a young and beautiful woman suddenly appeared and pestered Master Ding. At first, he could still withstand it, but later on, he could not resist the woman¡¯s gentleness and gave in. In the end, he even sired a son with that woman.


    ¡°If Yao and I are interrupted by Yin Xun in the end, we won¡¯t be able to get married. We won¡¯t have the Fang family to rely on anymore. In addition, I¡¯m not favored by my sister to start with, so I won¡¯t have any say in the Qu family in the future. You don¡¯t have a good relationship with my sister either. It¡¯s already very kind of her not to hit you when you¡¯re down. You can¡¯t expect her to help you in the future. If it reached that point, I won¡¯t be able to help you either. You can only rely on yourself.¡±


    Qu Lu¡¯s voice was so soft that no one else could hear her even though the piano music in the hall had suddenly stopped.


    They were at a corner where only a few people passed by occasionally. However, everyone was busy exchanging pleasantries, so no one noticed the three girls whispering.


    Since there were no outsiders around, Qu Lu removed her facade and her gaze turned cold. She looked completely different from the person who appeared in front of Qu Lin just now.


    Ding Shan did not notice the change in Qu Lu at all. At this moment, all she could think of was that Qu Lu was no longer able to help her. It was all because of Yin Xun. Thinking about how all her assets would be taken away by that illegitimate child if she had no allies, Ding Shan could not help but clench her fists.


    ¡°Yin Xun¡­ No, I can¡¯t let her succeed¡­¡± Ding Shan gritted her teeth and whispered..

    Seeing Ding Shan¡¯s reaction, Wu Fei and Qu Lu looked at each other and smiled.


    ¡°I¡¯ll leave for a while.¡± Ding Shan thought for a moment and walked out.


    Standing at the entrance of the hall, Ding Shan looked back at the banquet hall with a livid expression. Then, she walked toward the bathroom.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was still in the bathroom. To be safe, Yin Xun asked Mi Jin to help her investigate Wu Fei and Ding Shan¡¯s details.


    This kind of thing was easy for Mi Jin. He quickly sent the information Yin Xun wanted.


    Looking at the message from Mi Jin, even Yin Xun¡ªsomeone who had read countless romance novels¡ªwas shocked.


    This story was too melodramatic. Yin Xun finally understood why Ding Shan had followed Qu Lu¡¯s lead. As for Wu Fei, her secrets were hidden even deeper.


    Ding Shan was originally the only daughter of the Ding family. Because her parents were loving people, she had been pampered since she was young. Mr. Ding and Mr. Qu were childhood friends. With this relationship, the Qu family helped the Ding family in many aspects. This was also the reason why the Ding family could develop into what it was today.


    It was said that everything prospered when there was harmony. This was true.


    When Mr. Ding and Madam Ding¡¯s relationship was fine, the Ding family¡¯s business had always been very good. However, Madam Ding was very insecure and was always suspicious. She felt that Mr. Ding did not love her enough, and she had a best friend who was known to always cause trouble. Her best friend¡¯s husband was a violent man and had an affair, but she could not get a divorce. Her parents thought that a woman having a divorce was a disgrace to the family, so she had to endure it.


    Since her marriage was not happy, that friend of hers thought that all the men in the world were bad people. Therefore, she always badmouthed Mr. Ding in front of Madam Ding. She talked about which woman he ate with today and which social gathering he was going to tomorrow¡­


    Under her friend¡¯s influence, Madam Ding¡¯s uneasiness became more and more serious. When she was young, her family environment was not good. Because she was poor, she entered the entertainment industry as a model and actress before she finished school. When she first got into the limelight, she met Mr. Ding. He was very good at wooing women. He quickly took her with him and made her leave the industry to be a full-time housewife.


    From then on, Madam Ding could only ask her husband for money. If Mr. Ding gave up on her, she would have nothing. Fortunately, she gave birth to Ding Shan not long after they got married. Mr. Ding was very pleased with this and doted on both the child and her.


    However, because of her growing environment and her best friend¡¯s sowing discord, Madam Ding became more and more unsettled. In order to reassure herself, she often used schemes to test his loyalty to her.


    Almost all these ideas were given by her best friend. In the beginning, they were all small tests. Madam Ding was very satisfied that her husband had passed the tests. However, her best friend was not satisfied with the result. No matter what occasion it was, she would belittle Madam Ding and instill in her the idea that she was unable to look after men.


    Under her influence, Madam Ding went overboard. In the end, she went so far as to find a young and beautiful woman to test Mr. Ding¡¯s loyalty!


    Mi Jin said that the woman was hired by Madam Ding to help her look after Mr. Ding. The two of them had signed a contract and were working together. Yin Xun looked at the blurry contract photo and admired Mi Jin from the bottom of her heart. As expected of a top hacker¡ªhe could even find such a thing. This contract had long been destroyed, and even Madam Ding did not have it anymore.


    The contract said that whatever happened, whatever the reason, Ms. Du could not be in a relationship with Mr. Ding, or it would be considered a breach of contract, and a high default fee would be paid.


    Yin Xun looked at the name. It turned out that the woman¡¯s name was Du Bing. Her name sounded clean and pure, but her character was not good.


    The contract had both of their signatures and fingerprints on it.


    Madam Ding was really relieved. She believed in Du Bing.


    Du Bing only acted as if she was pursuing him according to the contract. Then, she sent their chat records to Madam Ding.


    Aside from that, Du Bing also had the task of being a private detective. She often followed Mr. Ding and reported his real-time situation to Madam Ding, including which women he was close to. She had to tell Madam Ding everything.


    In the beginning, Madam Ding was also very wary of Du Bing, so she found another person to follow Du Bing and report to her. However, Du Bing was quite reliable. All the information she reported to her was true, and she did not have any unnecessary contact with Mr. Ding. In addition, Du Bing was always thoughtful when they talked, so Madam Ding gradually let down her guard against Du Bing.


    At first, Mr. Ding behaved very well. He kept himself clean and took the initiative to keep a distance from the opposite sex. After about two years,


    Madam Ding realized that Mr. Ding was becoming more and more abnormal.


    When she asked Du Bing about it, she only said that everything was normal. However, Madam Ding keenly realized that Du Bing seemed to have become richer than before. She wore more branded clothes and jewelry..

 Chapter 298 - Chapter 298: The Walls Have Ears

    Madam Ding was worried that she would not be able to get anything out of Du Bing, so she got a private investigator to look into this.


    In the end, the investigation led to an accident. Only then did Madam Ding find out that not only was Mr. Ding having an affair, but he also had a child. The affair was actually with Du Bing!


    Madam Ding was a person who could not hide anything. The moment she found out the truth, she caused a great scene with Mr. Ding, causing everyone around her to know about this scandal.


    Mr. Ding had originally felt a little guilty toward Madam Ding, but after this commotion, he became a laughing stock. After slapping Madam Ding in front of everyone, he left the Ding family¡¯s villa.


    From then on, Mr. Ding did not go home much. He and Du Bing bought a villa elsewhere to live together and raised their son personally.


    In order to give his son a legitimate identity, he wanted to divorce Madam Ding. This matter had blown up again. However, no matter how Mr. Ding threatened her, Madam Ding would rather die than get a divorce. She even said that if she was forced into a corner, everyone would die. She would bring Ding Shan along with her.


    Madam Ding meant what she said. Later on, she really hid Ding Shan.


    Mr. Ding still loved Ding Shan. He knew that Madam Ding¡¯s mental state had become a little abnormal. He was afraid that she would really do something to Ding Shan, so he planned to postpone this matter until Ding Shan grew up.


    In the end, Mr. Ding and Du Bing had not gotten married until now, but their marriage was only in name. Although Du Bing had not registered her marriage with Mr. Ding, the two of them were like a real couple. They lived together every day and even raised their son together. Mr. Ding even planned to let his son inherit his family assets. He thought that his daughter would have to marry out in the future and could not inherit the family assets anyway.


    However, Mr. Ding had overlooked one point. His son was an ignorant and incompetent libertine. He only knew how to fool around every day and never worked in a proper place. Mr. Ding¡¯s health had not been good in the past few years. The company was basically controlled by his son and Ding Shan now. The two of them fought both openly and secretly. In order to fight for the family assets, they made things difficult for each other, causing the company¡¯s situation to worsen.


    According to the current situation, after Mr. Ding passed away, it was very likely that he would give all his assets to his son. Without her father¡¯s support, it would be difficult for Ding Shan to snatch it away. She had no choice but to place her hopes on the Qu family.


    Yin Xun did not know what had happened between Qu Lin and Ding Shan, but she could tell that the two of them were like fire and water. It was not just them. She felt that Qu Lin, Qu Lu, and Wu Fei were all the same type.


    ¡°Sigh, never give yourself to someone else. Even if that person keeps saying that he loves you, no one can completely believe him except himself.¡± Yin Xun sighed and whispered, ¡°As expected of that family. They¡¯re all abnormal.¡±


    If she saved this contract, Yin Xun thought that it might be useful in the future.


    In addition, she knew how to deal with Ding Shan now. A snake had struck its weak spot. If she wanted to deal with someone, she had to specifically target her weak spot and defeat her in one strike, not giving her a chance to resist.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes narrowed dangerously. If Ding Shan was just messing around and did not affect her earnings, she would not do anything. However, if Ding Shan went overboard, she could not blame her for retaliating.


    Just now, Yin Xun had only briefly scanned Wu Fei¡¯s information. Now that she had finished reading Ding Shan¡¯s information, she was about to look at Wu Fei¡¯s when the bathroom door suddenly opened. Yin Xun heard a voice and immediately fell silent. She looked out from the gap in the cubicle and saw that it was Ding Shan who had entered.


    Ding Shan was on the phone with her friends while Yin Xun listened quietly in the cubicle.


    She did not expect to hear her name being mentioned. Yin Xun was a little surprised. Although her voice was very soft, she could hear it clearly because it was only next door.


    She did not know who Ding Shan was calling, but her voice sounded very aggrieved. In the end, she even started sobbing. She was talking about none other than the matter between Yin Xun and Fang Yao. She hated mistresses the most. Also, Qu Lu seemed to be doing poorly in her family. If Yin Xun succeeded in interfering with their affairs, Qu Lu would not be able to help her anymore.


    Yin Xun could not help but find it funny. She had already told Qu Lu that she was not interested in the matter between Fang Yao and Qu Lu and that she would not interfere. Qu Lu had expressed his understanding at that time, but later on, she pretended to be pitiful in front of Ding Shan and the others. Yin Xun knew very well what her motive was.


    The reason Qu Lu was so worried was that she knew that Fang Yao did not really like her. She believed that as long as a new girl appeared by Fang Yao¡¯s side, she would be chased away. Only by making sure there were no other girls would her chances increase.


    After Ding Shan complained for a while, Yin Xun immediately became vigilant..

 Chapter 299 - Chapter 299: Yin Xun Made a Move

    Chapter 299: Yin Xun Made a Move

    ¡°I can¡¯t let Yin Xun ruin my plans. Regardless of whether she and Fang Yao are really an item, as long as she dares to block my way, I¡¯ll make her disappear¡­¡±


    Yin Xun stood quietly in the cubicle and listened to Ding Shan talk about how to deal with her. After Ding Shan finished speaking, Yin Xun gently pushed open the door and walked out.


    Just as Yin Xun walked out of the cubicle, Ding Shan opened the door. The moment she saw Yin Xun, she was stunned.


    ¡°Hey, what a coincidence. I didn¡¯t expect you to come to the bathroom too.¡± Yin Xun greeted Ding Shan with a faint smile.


    ¡®When were you here?¡± Ding Shan¡¯s expression did not look too good. She stared at Yin Xun warily.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°1 came a long time ago. When I said that I was coming to the bathroom, weren¡¯t you there too? It was since that time.¡±


    ¡°Then what did you hear?¡± Ding Shan remembered that Yin Xun had said that she was going to the washroom before she came out, but she did not expect her to still be there after so long.


    Yin Xun shook her phone. ¡°From the beginning to the end, I heard everything. Not only did I hear it, but I also recorded it. Hmm, I didn¡¯t expect our Miss Ding to do such a thing. What do you think will happen if others heard this recording? Will everyone praise you for your methods or think that you¡¯re ruthless?¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Ding Shan frowned and looked at the phone in Yin Xun¡¯s hand. The angry words were already on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them. ¡°l was just casually complaining. Why did you take it seriously? I advise you not to complicate matters. Delete the recording and I won¡¯t make things difficult for you in the future. ¡®


    As she spoke, Ding Shan quickly stepped forward, wanting to snatch the phone from Yin Xun¡¯s hand.


    At this moment, the effect of Fang Yao forcing her to train every day came into play. Yin Xun easily dodged Ding Shan¡¯s grab and smoothly turned around. When Ding Shan was not paying attention, she raised her hand and gently pushed her back. Ding Shan lost her balance and fell forward.


    ¡°Ah!¡¯ Ding Shan was wearing high heels. She was already a little unsteady from her movements just now, and with Yin Xun pushing her, she lost her balance. She screamed and fell to the ground, and her gown tore.


    ¡°A friendly reminder. It¡¯s best not to talk about secrets in the bathroom. The walls have ears, you know. However, I think that after this incident, you probably won¡¯t make such a low-level mistake again. To be honest, this is the first time weVe met today, and there¡¯s no conflict of interest between us. There¡¯s actually no need for you to be so hostile to me.¡± Yin Xun crossed her arms and looked down at Ding Shan. She had no intention of helping her up.


    Yin Xun only wanted to earn money and did not want to participate in these women¡¯s fights for love. Earlier, she wanted to let Ding Shan off, but she did not expect the girl to be so relentless, so there was no need for her to be polite now.


    ¡°Either you can defeat me, or you have to come clean. If you do anything to harm me or make things difficult for me again, I¡¯ll play this recording for everyone present.¡± Yin Xun squatted down and grabbed Ding Shan¡¯s hair, forcing her to look up at her.


    Since this girl had threatened to kill her, there was no need to be nice to her. There was no point in pretending anymore. She might as well make things clear.


    ¡°Lulu is right. You¡¯re indeed not a good person. Now, you¡¯ve revealed your true nature!¡¯ Ding Shan¡¯s hair was pulled by Yin Xun. She did not dare to move her head and could only follow Yin Xun¡¯s lead. Otherwise, she would be in great pain.


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°My nature has nothing to do with you. Just know that as long as you can honestly stop targeting me, I won¡¯t expose this matter.¡±


    When she checked the time, she realized she had been out for a while. Yin Xun said to Ding Shan, ¡°l still have something to handle. I don¡¯t have time to waste with you. Take care.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun let go of Ding Shan¡¯s hair in disdain and muttered, ¡°How much hair gel did she use? It¡¯s so sticky. Disgusting¡­¡± Then, she left the bathroom.


    Ding Shan, ¡±


    Yin Xun returned to the banquet hall. Seeing her return, Qu Lin came to her side with a smile.


    ¡°Sister Yin Xun, why are you so late?¡± Qu Lin pulled Yin Xun to the table and sat down. She poured Yin Xun a glass of red wine.


    ¡°Cleaning up. Otherwise, my clothes will get sticky.¡± Yin Xun did not tell her what had happened in the bathroom.


    Qu Lin nodded. ¡°That¡¯s true. If you ¡®re not feeling well, you can follow me up to get a change of clothes. Although the size might not be suitable, it¡¯s better than wearing wine-soaked clothes.¡±


    Yin Xun politely refused.


    Qu Lin did not insist either. She went to Yin Xun¡¯s side and whispered in her ear, ¡°Sister Yin Xun, my sister has her eyes on you. She¡¯s not a simple person. Be careful not to get involved in trouble in the future..¡±

 Chapter 300 - Chapter 300: Fang Yaos Fiancée

    Chapter 300: Fang Yao¡¯s Fianc¨¦e


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    While Qu Lin and Yin Xun were talking, Fang Yao¡¯s mother finally came out. She was the main character of this banquet, so when she appeared, the banquet immediately became more lively.


    ¡°Lin Chan never made such a big scene on her birthdays in the past. She¡¯s always kept a low profile. Why is it such a big occasion this time?¡± someone whispered beside her.


    It turned out that Fang Yao¡¯s mother¡¯s name was Lin Chan. Yin Xun raised her head and looked over. Lin Chan was wearing a light yellow gown as she slowly walked in. Her hair was only half tied up, and she was wearing expensive jewelry. She looked graceful and noble.


    ¡°Auntie is here.¡± Qu Lin gestured to Yin Xun with her chin. Then, she looked at Yin Xun¡¯s wine-soaked gown and asked, ¡°But what about your clothes? Why don¡¯t we go change first before coming back? It won ¡®t be good if Auntie sees you like this.¡±


    However, before Yin Xun could reply, Lin Chan walked toward her.


    ¡°You are Miss Yin?¡± Lin Chan walked in front of Yin Xun and asked with a smile.


    ¡®Yes, hello, Auntie. You can call me Yin Xun.¡± Yin Xun nodded politely. Her tone was neither servile nor overbearing as she replied calmly.


    ¡°Thank you for coming to my birthday party. I¡¯ll talk to you after the party is over. How about that?¡± Lin Chan looked at Yin Xun and said in surprise, ¡°Your clothes are wet. Do you want to change?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and shook her head. ¡°Thank you, Auntie. It¡¯s almost dry. There¡¯s no need.¡¯


    Lin Chan did not insist on her changing her clothes. Instead, she only made the offer. It was obvious that she was just asking out of courtesy and did not really want to help her.


    Yin Xun did not want to make things difficult for herself, so she politely refused.


    ¡°Alright then.¡± Lin Chan smiled and nodded. She then said to Qu Lin, ¡°Linlin, help me take care of Miss Yin.¡±


    Qu Lin smiled and agreed. ¡°Okay, don¡¯t worry, Auntie.¡±


    Lin Chan took a deep look at Yin Xun, then turned around and left.


    Looking at Lin Chan¡¯s back, Yin Xun was puzzled. Could it be that Lin Chan had come just to say these few words to her?


    Lin Chan looked gentle and beautiful, giving people a comfortable feeling. Yin Xun thought that since Lin Chan had invited her to a banquet¡ªand a birthday party at that¡ªshe must be interested in her project. Otherwise, why would she call her all the way here?


    However, it would already be very late when the banquet ended. Did they still have to talk at night? Was it not better to talk at the office or somewhere quiet? Was it to see her reaction?


    Yin Xun had many questions in her mind. However, Lin Chan was currently busy with something and could not discuss matters with her. She could not ask Qu Lin about this either, so she could only wait until it was over.


    Just as Yin Xun was staring fixedly at Lin Chan, Ding Shan limped back.


    ¡°Hey, why is Ding Shan suddenly limping? Wasn¡¯t she fine just now?¡± Qu Lin suddenly asked in confusion.


    Yin Xun followed Qu Lin¡¯s gaze and raised her eyebrows slightly. She did not expect Ding Shan to change into a new gown in such a short period of time. She was no longer as disheveled as before. It seemed she had just sprained her ankle and had changed into a pair of shorter high heels. Her walking was a little unsteady.


    ¡°The floor of the bathroom is very slippery. Perhaps she accidentally fell,¡± Yin Xun replied casually.


    ¡°Hehe, serves her right,¡± Qu Lin said.


    As if sensing Yin Xun and Qu Lin¡¯s gazes, Ding Shan suddenly turned to look at them. Qu Lin snorted and turned her head away. Yin Xun tilted her head slightly and smiled at Ding Shan.


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s smile, Ding Shan¡¯s expression changed and she immediately turned away.


    Yin Xun ignored her and continued to watch Lin Chan as she made her speech and waited for the banquet to end.


    When the banquet was about to end, Yin Xun finally knew the true purpose of Lin Chan¡¯s banquet.


    Lin Chan called Qu Lu over in front of everyone present. Everyone¡¯s eyes were on the two of them.


    Lin Chan smiled and said, ¡°Everyone, since it¡¯s my birthday, let me announce another piece of good news. Qu Lu, this child¡­¡± Lin Chan held Qu Lu¡¯s hand and pulled her closer. She said, ¡°She will be engaged to my son, Fang Yao. From now on, she will be the Young Mistress of the Fang Family.¡±


    Qu Lu lowered her head, which was flushed red. She did not say a word throughout the entire process.


    Lin Chan smiled. ¡°This child is too easily embarrassed.¡±


    It was a big deal that the Fang Family had confirmed the Young Mistress. There were many young girls present, and more than half of them had come for Fang Yao. If they could become the Young Mistress of the Fang family, their status would rise in the future. Everyone had dressed up gorgeously for the struggle.


    Qu Lin did not expect Lin Chan to acknowledge Qu Lu as her daughter-in-law.


    She asked Yin Xun in surprise, ¡°Sister Yin, what are you going to do now?¡¯


    Yin Xun, ¡®¡­What does this have to do with me?¡¯

 Chapter 301 - Chapter 301: Snatching Yours

    Chapter 301: Snatching Yours


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Despite that, Yin Xun felt a little uncomfortable when she thought about how Qu Lu would get married to Fang Yao. Why did she have such thoughts?


    Well, Qu Lu hated her to begin with. If they got married, she and Fang Yao would probably not be able to continue working together. She would lose a sugar daddy, which was why she felt uncomfortable.


    ¡®Yes, that must be it.¡¯


    ¡°Didn¡¯t I say that Fang Yao and I are just ordinary partners? It has nothing to do with me who he marries,¡± Yin Xun explained.


    ¡°Oh, so that¡¯s how it is?¡± Qu Lin rested her chin on her hand with a puzzled expression.


    ¡®What do you think? I was right, wasn¡¯t l? Qu Lu is Young Master Fang¡¯s real girlfriend. She¡¯s beautiful, kind, and comes from a good family background. She¡¯s not like some people who keep an eye on other people¡¯s boyfriends and even bully others. Qu Lu is simply not like them. Hmph.¡± Ding Shan walked over at this moment. Due to her injured ankle, she walked rather slowly.


    Yin Xun and Qu Lin turned around and saw that Ding Shan was trying to look normal as she walked. Her body was a little stiff because of this deliberate movement. Yin Xun suddenly felt somewhat impressed by her willpower.


    The more she watched, however, the more she found Ding Shan¡¯s walking posture hilarious. She immediately burst out laughing.


    ¡®What are you laughing at?¡¯ When Ding Shan saw Yin Xun staring at her and laughing, she remembered what happened in the bathroom just now. Her face turned red and she glared at Yin Xun fiercely.


    Yin Xun did not say anything, but Qu Lin rolled her eyes at her and said angrily, ¡°Sister Yin Xun thinks you¡¯re a joke. You don¡¯t think before you speak. It means nothing if someone uninvolved like you talks about this. As for who Brother Fang Yao¡¯s girlfriend is, I think it should be up to him to decide. He¡¯s not a puppet. He has his own thoughts.¡±


    Ding Shan frowned and said, ¡°Linlin, Lulu is your biological sister. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t stand up for her, but why do you have to intentionally stand up for others? Young Master Fang isn¡¯t your biological brother, is he? You keep calling him Brother. Those who didn¡¯t know better might think that you¡¯re the Fang family¡¯s daughter.¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Faced with Ding Shan¡¯s mocking tone, Qu Lin¡¯s face suddenly turned red, as if someone had hit a sore spot.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need to be embarrassed. Your thoughts are very normal. Who doesn¡¯t want to build a relationship with the Fang family? Your sister is going to marry Young Master Fang. When the time comes, she¡¯ll have a higher position than you. You¡¯re probably afraid and are eager to curry favor with Young Master Fang before they get married so that you won¡¯t be suppressed by your sister in the future.¡± Ding Shan finally regained the upper hand and stared at Qu Lin arrogantly.


    At this moment, her face was filled with pride. After all, she had just been insulted by Qu Lin not long ago. Now that she could return the favor, she naturally had to seize the opportunity.


    Yin Xun did not mind exchanges of mockery at all, nor was she interested in arguing with them. There was no benefit in winning something like this. It was better to save energy for earning money. Having money meant having everything.


    However, Qu Lin was trying to help her. Yin Xun naturally could not watch her be bullied, so she finally decided to speak up.


    She glanced at Ding Shan indifferently and said slowly, ¡°If you have the time to care about other people¡¯s family matters, why don¡¯t you settle your own family¡¯s mess first? Before you talk about someone¡¯s elder sister, you should be looking at your younger brother first.¡±


    When Qu Lin heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, she laughed. She nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. A certain someone is worried about her younger brother snatching the family assets every day and is making things difficult for her family. However, she also cares about the matters of another family¡¯s sisters. She must be so free.¡±


    ¡°You two¡­¡± Ding Shan pointed at Yin Xun and Qu Lin. She did not say anything for a moment. After a while, she said to Qu Lin, ¡°The project you snatched from your sister belonged to me. Did you know that?! Why do you always like to do such things?!¡±


    Qu Lin casually picked up the red wine in front of her and took a sip before saying unhurriedly, ¡°In business, it¡¯s important for capable people to do more work. Since the other party chose to cooperate with me in the end, it naturally means that they acknowledge my ability, and you¡­¡±


    Qu Lin smiled. ¡°You are a little lacking. Besides, you know my relationship with my sister. How can I not snatch the project she discussed? All you have to do is not look for my sister for help. Look for me instead, as long as you ask nicely.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t get full of yourself, Qu Lin! A rabbit will bite when it¡¯s pushed to a corner. Don¡¯t force me!¡± Ding Shan was so angry that her face turned red. She turned to leave, but before she left, she did not forget to threaten Qu Lin. ¡°Qu Lin, don¡¯t be conceited. After your sister marries Young Master Fang, there won¡¯t be any place left for you. The Fang family¡¯s power isn¡¯t something you can fight against. I¡¯ll wait for you to come back begging to Lulu..¡±

    Yin Xun saw how angry she was. She thought that if it were not for the fact that this was a banquet, she would have shouted and cursed by now.


    With a smile, Yin Xun went to Qu Lin¡¯s side and asked softly, ¡°Aren¡¯t you still underage? Can you even talk about business?¡±


    She was not looking down on minors, but she had never heard of any company that would allow the discussion of business with minors.


    Qu Lin smiled mysteriously at Yin Xun. ¡°l know I¡¯m young, but I can negotiate¡­¡±


    The two of them whispered for a while. Yin Xun realized that Qu Lin had a knack for business. Although she was young, it did not affect her knowledge at all. It was just that she had not encountered any setbacks so far and was a little too proud and conceited.


    However, this was a small problem. Yin Xun was even more certain that she wanted to work with Qu Lin in the future.


    While the two of them were whispering to each other, Lin Chan brought Qu Lu along to greet her friends.


    Yin Xun always had the collaboration on her mind. She would occasionally look at Lin Chan, hoping to find an opportunity to talk to her about the project. However, it was as if Lin Chan had really only invited her to have fun at the banquet. Not only did she not bring up the collaboration, she did not even speak to her from the beginning to the end.


    Finally, Lin Chan brought Qu Lu to their area.


    ¡°Madam, you¡­¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin, I am so sorry. If there is anything, can we wait until the banquet is over before we talk about it? You saw it yourself. I have something on right now.¡±


    Yin Xun had barely opened her mouth when Lin Chan interrupted her.


    Qu Lu, who was standing beside her, shot Yin Xun a provocative look.


    Qu Lin mouthed to Qu Lu, ¡°A dog can use its master¡¯s power.¡± With that, she raised her glass with a smile and made a toasting gesture before taking a sip.


    Qu Lu ¡®s expression changed slightly, but because Lin Chan was beside her, she could only maintain her smile.


    The two of them soon left. Yin Xun looked at how distant Lin Chan was behaving and could already guess what was going on.


    The only contact she had with the Fang family was Fang Yao. When they first met, she pretended to be Fang Yao¡¯s girlfriend and drove Qu Lu away in anger.


    After Lin Chan had invited her to the banquet, Yin Xun had been summoned by Qu Lu as soon as she arrived. Qu Lu had declared her sovereignty. It was impossible that Lin Chan would not know about this. In other words, she had tacitly agreed to this behavior.


    At the banquet, Lin Chan also informed everyone that Fang Yao¡¯s fianc¨¦e was Qu Lu.


    Lin Chan ignored her because she wanted to help Qu Lu vent his anger.


    If she guessed correctly, when Lin Chan came to look for her after the banquet, she would definitely talk about Fang Yao¡¯s relationships.


    This was really¡­ an undeserved calamity. Yin Xun sighed and cursed Fang Yao in her heart.


    ¡°Since it¡¯s Madam¡¯s birthday today, why didn¡¯t Fang Yao come?¡± Thinking of Fang Yao, Yin Xun looked around and realized that she had not seen Fang Yao since he arrived.


    Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun in surprise. ¡°He never attends such events, unless it¡¯s related to business. Besides, let me tell you¡­¡± Qu Lin leaned close to Yin Xun¡¯s ear and whispered, ¡°Brother Fang doesn¡¯t like my sister at all. I heard that in order to avoid my sister, he doesn¡¯t even go home anymore. Rumor has it that he went to live in a very remote and dilapidated neighborhood. Tsk tsk, my sister is hated to this extent, but she still pesters him.¡±


    ¡°A dilapidated neighborhood?¡± Yin Xun was stunned.


    Qu Lin nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s so remote and the houses there are small. It must be really hard on Brother Fang.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right, I¡¯ve done him wrong¡­¡± Yin Xun could not help but feel a little ashamed.


    Although the neighborhood she lived in was remote, it was still a villa area. The security of the property management was very good. She did not expect it to be a lousy neighborhood in Qu Lin¡¯s eyes.


    She was certainly the daughter of a wealthy family. Her taste was extraordinary.


    The banquet lasted for two hours. Qu Lin was with Yin Xun the entire time.


    Initially, Qu Lu¡¯s friends wanted to make things difficult for Yin Xun so that Qu Lu would remember their kindness. However , when they saw Qu Lin by Yin Xun¡¯s side, they gave up on the idea. They did not dare to provoke Qu Lin.


    After the banquet ended, the guests gradually left.


    Qu Lin reminded her, ¡°Sister Yin Xun, since Auntie invited you here, she will definitely come to look for you later. You should change your clothes first. It will be more convenient.¡±


    After being reminded by Qu Lin, Yin Xun remembered that she was still wearing the soiled gown and quickly went out to change.


    Right after Yin Xun left, Lin Chan came over, having already changed her clothes. Qu Lu had also changed her clothes and followed behind her.


    After learning that Yin Xun had gone out to change her clothes, Lin Chan¡¯s eyes flashed.


    ¡°Auntie, do you also know Big Sis Yin Xun?¡± Qu Lin asked Lin Chan with a smile.


    Qu Lu frowned and said, ¡°Linlin, does Auntie have to report to you about what she does? That¡¯s so rude. We can¡¯t ask about personal matters of the elders..¡±

    Chapter 303: Secretly-taken Photos


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Lin Chan smiled and praised Qu Lu. ¡°Lulu is indeed sensible. But it doesn¡¯t matter. Linlin is still young. There¡¯s nothing wrong with that.¡±


    She turned her head and said to Qu Lin, ¡°1 have something personal to discuss with Miss Yin.¡¯


    ¡°Auntie, Big Sister Yin Xun is my savior. If it weren¡¯t for her, I wouldn¡¯t have been able to come back alive. For my sake, can you please treat her well?¡± Qu Lin hugged Lin Chan¡¯s arm and tried to persuade her.


    ¡°So she was the one who saved you?¡¯ Lin Chan was surprised.


    She had heard Qu Lin mention this before. At that time, she even vowed that if she saw that person in the future, she would show her gratitude.


    However, she did not expect this person to be Yin Xun. It was really a twist of fate..


    After Yin Xun changed her clothes and returned, she discovered that Lin Chan¡¯s attitude toward her had suddenly changed. It was as if her smile had become more genuine, and it was no longer the fake smile from before.


    Lin Chan brought her to the lounge of the hotel. This was where Qu Lu had met her when Yin Xun had first arrived. As expected, Lin Chan knew about Qu Lu¡¯s actions.


    At this moment, there was only her and Lin Chan in the room. The gentle smile on Lin Chan¡¯s face immediately disappeared. She looked at Yin Xun and said,


    ¡°Miss Yin, since there is no one else here, then let¡¯s get straight to the point.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Please speak, Madam.¡±


    Lin Chan turned around and took out a stack of photos from her bag. She placed them in front of Yin Xun and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know how you and Yao met, and I don¡¯t care whether you deliberately approached Yao or unintentionally met him. But there¡¯s one thing I hope you understand. Yao already has a fianc¨¦e. As for who it is, you should have heard it just now.¡±


    Lin Chan frowned as she spoke, her tone not very pleasant.


    Yin Xun looked at the photos. When she heard Lin Chan¡¯s words, she nodded and replied, ¡°1 heard the announcement. It¡¯s Qu Ltl.¡± Her tone was calm and there was no reaction.


    She did not care who Fang Yao¡¯s girlfriend was. She only cared about the contents of the photos.


    From this angle, it was obvious that they were secretly taken, and they were very unprofessional. Some photos were so blurry that it was almost impossible to see the person clearly. Yin Xun took a closer look and realized that they were all photos of her and Fang Yao together. Some looked intimate, and some were normal.


    In those intimate photos, other than the one with her arm linked with Fang


    Yao¡¯s, almost everything else was an illusion caused by the angle of the photo. As for the one with her arm linked, Yin Xun remembered that she was so tired from Fang Yao¡¯s training that she could not even walk, so she used Fang Yao to support her.


    ¡°Yao is my son. I know very well what kind of person he is. Perhaps you two are in a relationship, but I know that nothing¡­irreparable has really happened between you two.¡± Lin Chan thought about her words. ¡°So, no matter how deep your relationship is now, I hope that you two can break up immediately. Yao needs a wife who can help him in his career, not someone with no background.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s attention was all on those photos. When she thought of the silhouette she had seen previously, she immediately understood that she had been followed. As for who it was¡­


    ¡°Madam, you don¡¯t have to worry about this. Fang Yao and I are really just ordinary friends. I think he should have told you about our business collaboration. Recently, we added a new project. He said that he wanted to discuss it with the other shareholders of the company. I thought that you were looking for me today to discuss the collaboration.¡± Yin Xun was neither servile nor overbearing as she smiled faintly.


    Lin Chan did not believe her. She frowned and asked, ¡°You moved next door to him in order to get close to him. How is that fine? Moreover, with your status, you wouldn¡¯t be able to come into contact with our Fang Family under normal circumstances. Before you cooperated, what methods did you use to get close to him?¡¯


    ¡°Also¡­¡± Lin Chan continued, ¡°He even gave you his bodyguard. Is your relationship really innocent?¡¯


    ¡°His bodyguard?¡± Yin Xun was stunned.


    Lin Chan had been staring into Yin Xun¡¯s eyes. Seeing that she was genuinely stunned, she frowned and asked, ¡°You don¡¯t know? Are your current bodyguards called Tan Ai and Shu Yi?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun nodded, her heart filled with disbelief.


    So Shu Yi and Tan Ai were Fang Yao¡¯s bodyguards! Female bodyguards were rare to begin with, let alone someone as outstanding as those two.


    She had asked Mary to recruit people, but no one had passed the test after so long. When Fang Yao found out that she needed female bodyguards, he immediately found two. It was no wonder. She thought that it was because the Fang family had a lot of connections that he could get it done so fast.


    Yin Xun suddenly remembered that before she came to the banquet, Tan Ai had been teaching her how to do things. At that time, she only thought that this was a compulsory training course for bodyguards to understand all kinds of situations..

 Chapter 304 - Chapter 304: Gold Worshipper

    Chapter 304: Gold Worshipper


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Only now did Yin Xun realize that she must have been a member of the Fang family. No wonder Tan Ai looked so angry when she complained about Fang Yao. Now, she knew the reason.


    Lin Chan leaned back in her chair and touched the diamond ring on her finger. ¡°Originally, I wanted to cancel all collaborations between the Fang Family and the Yin Family, but I just heard from Linlin that you saved her life. Since that¡¯s the case, to repay your kindness, the Fang Family will continue to collaborate with you. I heard that you also want funds for a delivery project. As long as you promise to keep a distance from Yao in the future, the Fang Family will fully support you. How about that?¡¯


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up when she heard Lin Chan¡¯s terms. She asked, ¡°So that means, as long as I don¡¯t date Fang Yao, your family will fully support my project? I won¡¯t have to worry about funding either, right?¡±


    Yin Xun tried her best to appear calm, but this condition was too good. She could not suppress the excitement in her voice.


    Seeing Yin Xun¡¯s expression, Lin Chan was exasperated. Why did Yin Xun suddenly seem so happy?


    Although she was puzzled, she still nodded and gave an affirmative answer. ¡°That¡¯s right. Actually, we¡¯re quite optimistic about your project. However, it¡¯s still considered a small project by our Fang family¡¯s standards. It¡¯s not attractive enough, but as long as you agree to leave Fang Yao alone, we can fully support you. No matter how you plan to burn funds, you don¡¯t have to worry about funding in the future. Of course, this isn¡¯t unlimited. I think you should understand that without me saying it.¡±


    In any case, there was nothing between her and Fang Yao. They were just business partners. Even if Yin Xun agreed to Lin Chan¡¯s terms, it would not affect her much.


    Yin Xun was afraid that if she took too long to answer, Lin Chan would change her mind. After all, this cash cow looked even stronger than Fang Yao. She had to cozy up to her at all costs.


    Yin Xun quickly asked, ¡°In that case, Madam, should we sign the contract?¡±


    Words were useless. As long as Lin Chan signed the contract with her in the end, she had nothing to worry about.


    ¡± ..Naturally.¡± Lin Chan looked at Yin Xun in confusion. She had thought that


    Yin Xun would object to it, but to the contrary, she seemed to be quite happy.


    Hell¡­ It seemed that Yin Xun had only approached Fang Yao for money. Now that there was a greater benefit offered, she immediately gave up on Fang Yao and did not even say anything to salvage the situation.


    Lin Chan had a bad impression of Yin Xun again. The praise she had for Yin Xun because she saved Qu Lin was instantly gone.


    Fortunately, the girl turned out to be this kind of gold worshipper.


    At first, Lin Chan had wondered if she had misunderstood their relationship.


    Yin Xun did not care what Lin Chan thought of her. In order to prevent the ripe fruit from slipping away, she urged Lin Chan, ¡°Madam, I agree to all your requests. So, do you think we can sign the contract now? I¡¯m sure you don¡¯t want to see me again in the future. Since that¡¯s the case, why don¡¯t we settle everything tonight? If you find it troublesome to draft the contract, leave it to me. I¡¯m very good at this!¡±


    ¡°No need. I¡¯ve already prepared the contract.¡± Lin Chan picked up her phone and sent a message. Two minutes later, Butler He came over.


    He handed a folder to Lin Chan and left.


    ¡°Take a look. There are both requests and benefits written.¡± Lin Chan handed the contract to Yin Xun, indicating for her to inspect it.


    Yin Xun took the contract and thought to herself, ¡®I can¡¯t believe that this type of ¡°take the money and stay away from my son¡± plot really exists, and it even happened to me.¡¯


    In the past, when she saw female protagonists feeling insulted by this and then refusing the money after being separated from the male protagonist, Yin Xun felt bad for them. She could hate anything, but she could never hate money. She could do whatever she wanted with enough money.


    Back then, she believed that she could bear such humiliation and that people could use money to insult her to their heart¡¯s content. Now that it had finally come true, she could not suppress the excitement in her heart.


    Yin Xun looked at the contract. Lin Chan¡¯s requirements were written in great detail. There were many requirements, but to Yin Xun, the remuneration was also very high. There was no other problem, so she signed it very readily.


    After signing the contract, Yin Xun handed a copy to Lin Chan and kept a copy for herself.


    She knew what Lin Chan wanted. Lin Chan despised her family background. She had also taken a fancy to Qu Lu and wanted her to be with Fang Yao. Her greatest fear was that Yin Xun would ruin the relationship between Fang Yao and Qu Lu.


    Since Lin Chan was now her financier, Yin Xun felt that she needed to reassure her and build a good relationship with her. She would need the Fang Family in the future. After all, they were one of the top families in the country..

 Chapter 305 - Chapter 305: Fang Yao Knows About It

    Chapter 305: Fang Yao Knows About It


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun looked at Lin Chan and said with a smile, ¡°Madam, I think you¡¯ve misunderstood me and Fang Yao. We¡¯re really just business partners. Besides, I¡¯m not interested in him. There are many people chasing me, so he¡¯s not someone special.¡±


    ¡°Is this how you view relationships?¡¯ Lin Chan frowned, her tone already starting to become displeased. ¡°In order to protect you, he got seriously injured, but you brushed it off with just a few words. I feel sorry for my son.¡±


    Yin Xun thought that she could fool her, but in fact, Lin Chan already knew the details. Qu Lu must have told her everything.


    Initially, she didn¡¯t believe it either because she understood her son¡¯s personality. Ever since he was young, Fang Yao had never fallen for any girl. Even so, Fang Yao had never even looked at the outstanding Qu Lu. How could he fall for a woman who had suddenly appeared?


    However, after investigating things, she sent someone to follow Yin Xun. Only then did she confirm that Fang Yao treated Yin Xun differently from other girls. Based on her understanding of Fang Yao, even if he did not fall in love with Yin Xun, he definitely had some feelings for her


    Later on, she went to look for Fang Yao and talked to him about this matter. Fang Yao did not hide his feelings for Yin Xun at all.


    Fang Yao was not joking when he told her that he liked Yin Xun. He had gradually fallen in love with Yin Xun after their usual interactions.


    It was just that Yin Xun was too dense and did not notice it.


    Lin Chan sneered. Yin Xun thought that she was the one Lin Chan was cautious about, but that was not the case. She was most wary about Fang Yao¡¯s involvement.


    As long as Yin Xun agreed not to be with Fang Yao, it would be useless even if Fang Yao liked her. As the only son of the Fang Family, Fang Yao had to be with Qu Lu for the sake of the family business.


    To be honest, Lin Chan preferred Qu Lin. It was just that Qu Lin was too young, and the only suitable girl of the same age and social class was Qu Lu.


    Most importantly, Qu Lu was raised by the Fang family and the Qu family for this marriage¡­


    ¡°Are you pretending that you don¡¯t know how he feels about you, or do you really not know?¡± Lin Chan asked her in a low voice.


    The image of Fang Yao protecting her appeared in Yin Xun¡¯s mind again. Back then, she had also wondered if Fang Yao liked her, but later..


    ¡°He¡¯s protecting his partner. If I die, the money he invested will be wasted. ¡® That should be the case. Yin Xun lowered her eyes and added that last sentence in her heart.


    ¡°Hmph, you¡¯re good at finding excuses, but that¡¯s good too. It¡¯s best if you don¡¯t have feelings for Yao. I hope you remember the contents of this contract. If you violate it, you¡¯ll have to pay me three times the compensation.¡± Lin Chan warned her.


    Yin Xun asked again, ¡®Then the cooperation between me and Fang Yao¡­¡±


    ¡°The collaboration can continue as long as you keep your word,¡± Lin Chan replied.


    ¡°Okay.¡±


    After talking to Lin Chan, Yin Xun left the hotel. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little confused and uncomfortable.


    Therefore, when she walked out of the house, she did not notice the familiar figure standing not far away.


    Fang Yao did not stop Yin Xun. Instead, he stood there and watched her walk away until her figure disappeared. Only then did he walk into the lounge.


    ¡®You¡¯re here. Aren¡¯t you going to send her back at such a late hour? Aren¡¯t you worried that it won¡¯t be safe?¡± Lin Chan was not the least bit surprised to see him suddenly appear.


    ¡°Tan Ai came with her,¡± Fang Yao said lightly. ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect you to suddenly come to the company to intercept her.¡±


    ¡°l also didn¡¯t expect you to find out so quickly. You¡¯ve actually been here for a long time, haven¡¯t you? But why didn¡¯t you dare to appear? Are you afraid that the girl would find out? I¡¯ve raised you for many years, but this is the first time I¡¯ve seen you being so careful with a girl. Judging from that child¡¯s reaction, you¡¯ve never spoken to her about liking her. Why? Are you afraid that she¡¯ll reject you?¡± Lin Chan had a smile on the corner of her mouth. She seemed to be in a good mood.


    Fang Yao glanced at Lin Chan and frowned. ¡°It seems like you really want me to confess to her.¡¯


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s words, Lin Chan¡¯s smile immediately disappeared. She shook her head. ¡°Forget it. Fortunately, you¡¯re one-track-minded when it comes to relationships and didn¡¯t confess carelessly. If you did, it would have been quite difficult for me to deal with this matter today. However, since you¡¯re already here, why didn¡¯t you stop us?¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s lips suddenly curled into a smile. He said lightly, ¡°There¡¯s no need to stop you because eventually, you¡¯ll want to destroy that contract more than I do¡­¡±


    When Yin Xun returned to the villa, it was already very late. When she passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, she peeked inside. To her surprise, the lights in the villa were not switched on. It was pitch-black. Even the lights in the courtyard were off. It looked like no one was there, but the door was not locked.


    Could it be that Fang Yao and the servants were not at home?

 Chapter 306 - Chapter 306: Fang Yao Is Not At Home

    Chapter 306: Fang Yao Is Not At Home


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun originally wanted to tell Fang Yao. After all, it was not good to sign an investment agreement with the Fang family without letting him know. However, she had no choice. Fang Yao had also said that he could not make the decision himself and had to discuss it with his family.


    In other words, if Yin Xun had rejected the demands back then, then this investment project would have ended, and they would probably not get the chance to discuss it again in the future. The situation was unique, and Yin Xun could not call Fang Yao in front of Lin Chan to inquire about it, so she had no choice but to do it. She hoped that Fang Yao would not mind her decision.


    Looking at it from another angle, Lin Chan¡¯s request actually did not affect her relationship with Fang Yao. It was just that they could not date; they could still be business partners.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun suddenly felt much more relaxed. She had always been good at persuading herself and would rarely experience internal conflict.


    Tan Ai saw Yin Xun staring at Fang Yao¡¯s house and asked, ¡°Miss Yin, do you want to go in and take a look?¡¯


    Yin Xun looked at the courtyard under the light of the street lamp. The door was not locked, which meant that there was definitely someone in the house. However, the lights were not on. Perhaps Fang Yao was resting. After all, he had been injured recently and still needed to recuperate.


    However, she remembered that no matter how late she came back in the past, Fang Yao would always be waiting for her at home and urge her to exercise.


    Suddenly, one day, Fang Yao stopped doing this. She was still not used to this.


    ¡°I¡¯m not going. I¡¯ll look for him tomorrow,¡± Yin Xun said flatly.


    When she returned home, Shu Yi told her that Liu Ying had come to visit again. She ate all her meals at the villa. After eating, she would tidy up the kitchen and leave. Liu Ying did not touch anything else in the house.


    When Yin Xun heard this, she did not have any reaction. She only responded indifferently and returned to her bedroom.


    Fang Yao¡¯s room was also dark. Yin Xun walked to the balcony and stared at Fang Yao¡¯s window without blinking. She wondered if Fang Yao would suddenly open the window and greet her like before.


    The weather was a little overcast tonight, and there was a hint of dampness in the wind. It was pleasant, but there was something strangely oppressive about


    it.


    ¡°Fang Yao?¡± Yin Xun called out softly. As expected, there was no response from the other side.


    After staring blankly for a while, Yin Xun suddenly came back to her senses. She raised her hand and gently patted her face, wondering what was wrong with her. Why was she suddenly so sentimental? She was not like her usual self at all.


    It was just a few words from Lin Chan. Besides, she and Fang Yao were not in such a relatinoship to begin with. What was there to be afraid of?


    Earning money was the most important thing. With money, one would have confidence. Nothing else mattered.


    Yin Xun secretly cheered herself on in her heart. She took one last deep look at Fang Yao¡¯s window before returning to her bedroom. She closed the curtains, took a shower, and went to bed.


    Yin Xun did not sleep well that night. She dreamed of her previous world and her life in this world. Everything began smoothly, but then she eventually stopped fighting Si Fan, causing her family to be destroyed. She had not friends to rely on and was imprisoned and tortured by Si Fan. Even Fang Yao was hurting her.


    The dream was so vivid that her body really hurt when she was tortured. In the end, Yin Xun was woken up by this. She abruptly sat up and took deep breaths. Her heart was beating faster from the shock.


    ¡®Why does this dream feel so familiar?¡± Yin Xun stretched and looked around at the time. She woke up just in time. The alarm clock would be ringing in a few minutes.


    It was just a dream. Yin Xun stopped thinking about the contents of the dream. She got up and changed her clothes. Then, she went downstairs to go for a morning run.


    She thought that she would be training alone this morning, but as soon as she walked out of the courtyard, she saw Fang Yao walking over.


    When Fang Yao saw Yin Xun, he was a little surprised. He raised his eyebrows and greeted her. ¡°What a rare thing. You actually took the initiative to run in the morning without anyone pushing you.¡±


    ¡°After all, your life is your responsibility. When it matters, you have to protect yourself.¡± Seeing Fang Yao greeting her as usual, Yin Xun suddenly felt relieved. She smiled and said, ¡®Good morning, you haven¡¯t recovered yet, so why are you out so early?¡±


    Fang Yao walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and frowned. ¡°1 just came back. Didn¡¯t you notice last night that I wasn¡¯t at home?¡¯


    Yin Xun smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°I came back very late last night. I saw that the lights were not on at your house and thought that you were all asleep.


    Yin Xun did not know if Lin Chan had told Fang Yao about the contract. She was at a loss as to how she should tell him about it.


    Lin Chan probably did not say anything. Otherwise, Fang Yao would definitely ask her something by now.


    ¡®Well, you haven¡¯t recovered yet. You can¡¯t go running, right?¡± Yin Xun was about to say something, but the words changed when they reached her mouth..

 Chapter 307 - Chapter 307: Blissful Pain

    Chapter 307: Blissful Pain


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and the expression in his eyes dimmed slightly. He said calmly, ¡°I¡¯m here to monitor you so that you won¡¯t slack off.¡±


    After much consideration, Yin Xun finally decided to tell Fang Yao about the contract before she left.


    ¡°I have something to tell you,¡± Yin Xun said to Fang Yao with a serious expression.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡®What is it?¡±


    ¡°You¡­ Do you know about the contract I signed with your mother?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Initially, Yin Xun was still wondering if he should tell Fang Yao about the contract. However, after thinking about it, with Fany Yao¡¯s ability, even if Lin Chan did not tell him, he would definitely be able to find out.


    After all, someone with as high a status as him would definitely have spies in the family.


    As expected, Fang Yao nodded and said, ¡°l do.¡±


    Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s answer, Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief.


    Initially, she was worried that Fang Yao would be angry. Now, seeing how calm he was and that he was still in the mood to monitor her morning run, it seemed like everything was fine.


    Yin Xun quickly apologized. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me that you had a fianc¨¦e? To think that we pretended to be a couple back then. It was so awkward. No wonder your mother was angry.


    Yin Xun reached out and gently patted Fang Yao¡¯s uninjured shoulder. ¡°It¡¯s better for you to explain this to your mother. She didn¡¯t believe me when I explained. There¡¯s nothing between us, after all. It¡¯s just a collaboration, so she doesn¡¯t have to worry. As for the investment, I promise I won¡¯t let her make a loss.¡±


    Now that the project was on the right track and the initial stages were going smoothly, there was nothing to worry about next. Now that she had sufficient funds to work on the project and did not have to worry about money, she could naturally push forward boldly.


    Xintao had already reached a stable stage. Next, she would solve the delivery problem. After that, she would work on short video calls. Following that, she would develop the next step of her plan. Step by step, she wanted to build her own business empire.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Fang Yao frowned. Before he came, he had thought that Yin Xun would mention this. Would she be in an angry mood or pretend that nothing had happened?


    He thought of all kinds of possible situations, but he did not expect this. After Yin Xun found out that he knew that she had signed the contract without permission, her main attention was actually on the fact that he had a fianc¨¦e. When did he say that he had a fianc¨¦e?


    ¡°Do you have anything else to say?¡± Fang Yao asked Yin Xun.


    When Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao¡¯s expression was not too pleasant, she immediately began to reflect on whether her tone was rude just now. Then, she quickly said, ¡°I didn¡¯t discuss it with you before signing the contract; that was my fault. I shouldn¡¯t be asking you to talk about this with your family anyway. But I can guarantee that you won¡¯t lose money in the end. You won¡¯t suffer a loss if you cooperate with me.¡±


    At this moment, he wanted to crack open Yin Xun¡¯s head and check if there was anything else there other than business.


    He sighed. He finally understood¡ªas long as he did not say anything, Yin Xun would never think in this direction.


    ¡°I don¡¯t have a fianc¨¦e. Qu Lu simply likes me. This is just her wishful thinking.


    I¡¯ve rejected her from the start.¡± Fang Yao decided to make things clear. Otherwise, if Yin Xun continued to misunderstand, he would not stand a chance.


    Yin Xun said in surprise, ¡°But your mother has already announced her status as fianc¨¦e in front of all the guests. She seems to think that it would be helpful to your career. Tsk tsk, is this the pain of being born into a big family? You can¡¯t even make a decision about your own marriage. Although you¡¯re as rich as a country, you don¡¯t have freedom. Such blissful pain¡­¡±


    Many people must be envious of this kind of pain. After all, the source of all pain was poverty. As long as you had money, you could rely on money to solve many problems.


    ¡°Then what if I say that the person I like is you?¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and said in a half-serious and half-joking tone.


    He could use this opportunity to check Yin Xun ¡®s attitude toward him.


    If Yin Xun had feelings for him, he would immediately make a move and think of a way to make his parents accept Yin Xun. If Yin Xun still did not react, he would still wait a little longer. Anyway, the contract would not hurt Yin Xun.


    When Yin Xun heard his words, she immediately waved her hand and retreated from the question. ¡®We¡¯re business partners. Don¡¯t put me in a bad spot. You can¡¯t drag me down just to get rid of Qu Lu. I¡¯ve already been tricked once because of this facade. I don¡¯t want to be targeted by your family a second time.¡±


    She rejected him without any hesitation.


    Fang Yao sighed. This was the first time he felt so defeated. Yin Xun was really¡­ blank when it came to relationships..

    Forget it, there was still a long way to go. He would take things slow and wait for Yin Xun¡¯s company to stabilize first.


    In any case, with him around, no other man would dare to pursue Yin Xun, so there was no need to be afraid of her being snatched away.


    ¡°Go for a run. Don¡¯t slack off, or your training will be doubled tonight,¡± Fang Yao threatened Yin Xun in an unpleasant tone.


    Yin Xun did not expect Fang Yao¡¯s expression to change so suddenly. She complained under her breath, ¡°A man¡¯s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. His emotions are really unstable.¡± Then, he obediently went for a run.


    When Fang Yao heard her, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, he could only let out a long sigh.


    After the morning run, Yin Xun bid farewell to Fang Yao and went home to take a shower and change her clothes. Then, she rushed to the company feeling refreshed.


    Despite exercising for a long time, not only did she not feel tired, but she even felt that her entire body was more liberated after exercising.


    As soon as she arrived at the company, Mi Jin brought her good news. After comprehensive testing and modifications, the bugs had basically been cleared and the entire platform could be used.


    As for the other mobile phone manufacturers, they had already taken the initiative to book an appointment when they saw Xintao¡¯s growth. As long as Xintao started to go fully online, they would immediately sign a contract with their mobile app store and promise to give Xintao the first push.


    How could Yin Xun not seize such a good opportunity? She instructed Mi Jin,


    ¡°The real war is coming. Go and use all the advertising channels to promote Xintao. Money is not a problem. You have to build up the cards. ¡®


    Mi Jin asked in confusion, ¡°Haven¡¯t we always been fighting Blue Fox?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and explained, ¡°In the past, we released the closed beta version. We could only download it with Zhenku and Xiaoguo phones. Although it sucked away a portion of Blue Fox¡¯s users, it actually didn¡¯t affect Blue Fox greatly. Blue Fox¡¯s mobile phone software hasn¡¯t been released yet. They mainly focus on the computer side. Nowadays, people usually buy phones along with computers. Not many people will buy a new phone just for some shopping software.


    ¡°Most of the users are still in Blue Fox. If Si Fan didn¡¯t mind me too much and taken the initiative to participate in this business war, this matter wouldn¡¯t have affected him much.


    ¡°However, it¡¯s different now. Xintao is about to be fully released. In the future, the software can be used with any phone. There will be no restrictions on who can use it. Coupled with the fact that we¡¯re more active and the preferential event that Blue Fox created previously, more users will be biased toward us. Therefore, Blue Fox could be in real danger now.¡±


    After listening to Yin Xun¡¯s explanation, Mi Jin finally understood. He could not help but sigh. ¡°The business world is indeed a battlefield. It¡¯s fine for me to participate, but I won¡¯t be able to come up with a plan. Before you said all this, I never considered it.¡±


    Mi Jin followed Yin Xun¡¯s request and started sizing up the funds. He got various advertising companies to promote Xintao¡¯s online release. This time, the commotion was even greater than when Xintao first came online.


    The Xintao event was still ongoing, and Yin Xun announced that Xintao would use a brand new delivery plan. No matter what occasion it was or how much traffic there was, as long as a user placed an order, it could be delivered the next day and could be delivered straight to their doorstep.


    There had never been such a precedent before. Usually, deliveries would take at least four days to arrive, and sometimes even up to a week. It was because these logistics were too slow that the physical stores were never defeated by the online stores. Some people could not wait that long. If they had to wait so long for the delivery, they would buy it physically.


    However, Xintao actually said that their express delivery could send purchases the next day. It immediately attracted a large number of users. Everyone went to Xintao¡¯s website to register. They were waiting for the new mode of express delivery to start. With that, they could shop as they pleased.


    ¡°You¡¯re in charge of watching Xintao and Blue Fox. I¡¯ll deal with the delivery.¡± Yin Xun and Mi Jin left Xintao Building after the discussion.


    Actually, Yin Xun had already been preparing for Xintao Express long before she got the investment. Everything had been confirmed and she was only short of funds.


    Now that Lin Chan had gotten someone to transfer the funds over, Xintao would be able to complete the procedures in less than three days. The delivery issue that had been dragging them down would also be resolved.


    Yin Xun was relieved, but Si Fan was extremely troubled at the moment. After he saw Xintao¡¯s advertisement, he grumpily called Cheng She to his office.


    ¡°How are you guys doing with the software application? How long has it been? Xintao is already fully online, and you guys haven¡¯t finished the job yet.. What am I raising you guys for? To freeload?¡±

 Chapter 309 - Chapter 309: Cant Resign

    Chapter 309: Can¡¯t Resign


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Si Fan threw a few pages of documents at Cheng She¡¯s face and snapped, ¡°Xintao only has one programmer, and we have several. How can so many of you not compare to a single Mi Jin?¡±


    Cheng She picked up the documents that had fallen to the ground and roughly looked at them. He was also surprised to see that Xintao was fully online already. He did not expect Xintao¡¯s programming team to be so strong. They had actually checked the bugs so quickly and could even cater to old phones.


    However, the people from the technical department were not exactly useless. It was just that Mi Jin was too strong. Blue Fox¡¯s technical department had already gathered the best hackers in the country. If it were anyone else, they would not be able to complete it in such a short period of time.


    ¡°President Si, the technical department has just finished up and is preparing to test the software. Give them two to three days. As long as the bugs are eliminated, the software can be released immediately¡­¡±


    ¡°Two or three days?! I¡¯ve already given you more time, and you still have the cheek to delay! Trash, what a bunch of trash!¡± Si Fan picked up the ornament beside the computer and smashed it on the ground. With a bang, the Fortune Toad shattered into pieces.


    Cheng She looked at Si Fan, who was starting to go crazy again, and he trembled in fear. He did not dare to say a word, afraid that he would be beaten up like that toad ornament.


    Although he was afraid, Cheng She still complained in his heart. Si Fan was really crazy. He even dared to destroy his Fortune Toad ornament. It was meant to bring good luck for wealth. He was not afraid of losing money by destroying it.


    ¡°Inform the people from the technical department. I don¡¯t care what method you use. Tomorrow at the latest, you must complete the software for me!¡± After Si Fan vented, his emotions were more stable. He looked at Cheng She and instructed impatiently.


    ¡°President Si, the software has just been completed. We haven¡¯t even had time to do the first test. There will definitely be many bugs. Even if we don¡¯t eat or drink for a day and night, we can¡¯t complete it.¡± Cheng She was shocked by Si Fan¡¯s decision. Was he asking for someone¡¯s life?!


    ¡°Just give them two more days. Within two days, let them work overtime to eliminate the bugs. Then, after confirming that the software is stable¡­¡± ¡°Two days? Xintao is already fully online. If we delay any longer and the users are all snatched away, how are we going to earn money?!¡± Si Fan interrupted Cheng She. ¡°Go and inform the people from the technical department now. Tomorrow, at the latest, I have to see the results. If the software can¡¯t go online tomorrow, I¡¯ll fire them all!¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡±


    ¡°But what? Hurry up and tell them, or I¡¯ll fire you now!¡¯


    ¡°Yes.¡± Cheng She wanted to fight for more time, but when he heard Si Fan threatening to fire him, he immediately shut up. He helplessly stole a glance at Si Fan and left the office.


    Si Fan was already a little crazy now. He was being suppressed by this woman who was his girlfriend¡¯s sister.


    Cheng She had no doubt that if he kept talking, Si Fan would definitely fire him on the spot.


    With such a cruel boss who forced them to work overtime every day without extra pay and even hit and scolded them, ordinary employees would have resigned long ago.


    However, Cheng She could not resign. He also could not be fired by Si Fan. In short, he could not afford to leave the Blue Fox Company. After all, he had worked with Si Fan from the beginning. He knew too many secrets about Si Fan, including the matter of framing Mi Jin.


    If he left Si Fan¡¯s control, these secrets would be in danger. Si Fan would surely not let him leave safely.


    With Si Fan¡¯s personality, he might even find someone to kill Cheng She as soon as he left the company. Si Fan was definitely capable of this.


    When he reached the door, Cheng She sighed. A few people in the company had already resigned to join Xintao. He heard that they had just started working and had already received all kinds of subsidies. Not only were the benefits good, but even the boss, Yin Xun, was very gentle. She never hit or scolded her employees and analyzed the reason when something happened.


    He was envious. If only he could go over too¡­


    However, this was just a dream. Cheng She thought for a moment and walked toward the technical department.


    Si Fan did not know what Cheng She was thinking. He only knew that if he did not make a move now, Blue Fox would be completely suppressed by Xintao in the future.


    Right now, he needed Yin Xun to be distracted. He needed to obtain first-hand information about Xintao. Thinking of how Yin Xun would soon be betrayed by the person she trusted the most, Si Fan finally smiled.


    He took out his phone and called Chi Bo.


    ¡°Hey, you woke me up so early in the morning. You had better have something important¡­¡± After a long time, the other party picked up. His voice was irritable.


    ¡°Have you captured Mary¡¯s family?¡¯ Si Fan asked in a low voice..

 Chapter 310 - Chapter 310: Her Brother Was Missing

    Chapter 310: Her Brother Was Missing


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡®What capture¡­ President Si!¡± Chi Bo must have just woken up. He had not even looked at the caller ID before picking up the call and snapping at the person.


    When he heard Si Fan¡¯s voice, he finally came back to his senses and quickly apologized.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, President Si. We took some time last night, but don¡¯t worry, the mission was completed perfectly. Her brother has already been tied up, and no one will be able to find him,¡± Chi Bo said respectfully.


    Upon hearing his words, Si Fan could already imagine him nodding and bowing over there. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes as he said, ¡°This is your last chance. If you dare to fail again, you can get lost in the future!¡±


    Chi Bo quickly said, ¡°Yes, yes, yes. I promise that there won¡¯t be any problems this time! President Si, you can¡¯t throw me away. I still need you to save my life in the future! When can I escape overseas and get away from that tigress? I really can¡¯t take it for another day!¡±


    By the end of his sentence, Chi Bo sounded like he was about to cry.


    Si Fan frowned impatiently. Although he did not want to care about Chi Bo¡¯s predicament, he had no choice. Chi Bo was useful to him and he could not discard him now.


    He comforted him, ¡°As long as you can do these things well, I¡¯ll help you in the end.¡¯


    ¡°President Si, you¡¯ll definitely help me later, right? If I¡¯m by that tigress¡¯ side again, I¡¯ll be killed. She¡¯s hitting me more and more ruthlessly now¡­¡± Chi Bo cried and begged for help.


    ¡°Alright, I got it. Keep an eye on her brother. As long as you don¡¯t kill him, you can torture him however you want.¡± When Si Fan heard Chi Bo crying, he felt his head hurt.


    For the past few days, Yin MO had been crying in his ear. It was either her or Si Xia. Now, a grown man like him was also crying. Si Fan was getting more and more frustrated. After saying that, he hung up without waiting for Chi Bo¡¯s reaction.


    After hanging up the phone, he called Mary himself. Before he made the call, he had prepared a voice changer and jammer so that the other party would not know who was calling.


    Even calling the police was useless. The police could not find the origin of the signal.


    His subordinates were too useless. They had actually let Chen Meng escape last time. Si Fan no longer trusted them.


    It was safer for him to do the threatening himself. Now that he had reached this critical moment, all his preparations would be in vain if he failed..


    Mary was currently dealing with the matter of celebrities getting used to the short video platform. Because the software¡¯s functions were simple, it was easy to do. Mi Jin quickly solved these problems.


    Yin Xun named the short video website ¡°Rhythm Video¡±. It was a quirky and easy name to remember.


    Regarding celebrities entering Rhythm Video, it should have been a very simple procedure, but she did not expect those celebrities to have such high expectations. Although they were not A-list celebrities, they were still very ostentatious.


    It was already annoying enough that Mary needed to interact with them. What annoyed her further was that she suddenly could not contact her brother.


    Her parents called her hundreds of times a day, urging her to find her younger brother. However, she still had work to do and could not leave her post. In the end, she was scolded by her parents again.


    ¡°Your brother is still young. What will we do if something happens to him¡­¡¯ Mary¡¯s mother cried over the phone.


    ¡°Mom, Brother is only two years younger than me. How could he suddenly get lost? He might have gone to a classmate¡¯s house to play again. This isn¡¯t the first time. How many times has it been? Every time, we¡¯ve looked for him with great fanfare. In the end, when we found him, we realized that he was only at a classmate¡¯s house. It¡¯s all your fault for spoiling him too much.¡± Mary suppressed the impatience in her heart and explained to her mother.


    However, her mother did not agree. She said angrily, ¡°You wretched girl, you¡¯ve never liked your brother since you were young and always bullied him. Now, are you hoping that your brother will go missing so that you can monopolize the family assets in the future?¡±


    ¡°Mom, what are you talking about? What do you mean by taking over the family assets? Our 70-square-meter house?¡± Mary sighed helplessly. ¡°I know you care about Brother, but don¡¯t accuse me of everything, okay? I¡¯m really busy now. My boss has handed over the new project to me. I still have to make business talks now. I¡¯ll look for him when I have time, okay?¡±


    Mary¡¯s mother was indignant and scolded, ¡°You brat, what¡¯ does a girl like you have to be so busy for? Can¡¯t you just find a rich man to marry?! Why do you have to force yourself to live such a tiring life? You deserve it! Now you don¡¯t even care about your own brother. How did I give birth to a person like you back then..


    Before she could finish, Mary hung up..

    Chapter 311: Her Brother Was Kidnapped

    Her manager had just called her. She could not waste any more time.


    Rhythm Video was still a small website, so those celebrities did not look at it highly.


    In the entertainment industry, status was the most important thing. It would affect the subsequent resources. Therefore, entertainment platforms and celebrity endorsements were complementary.


    Luxury goods got endorsements from celebrities because it was a sign that their products were stylish. On the other hand, celebrities endorsed luxury goods because it showed their status and resources were good.


    For those celebrities who did not have enough status, they would do this even if they did not get paid for it. This was because they needed a reputation.


    However, to work with Rhythm Video, Yin Xun could only rely on these celebrities to carry the platform. Because of that, they were all arrogant. If not for the fact that Rhythm Video gave them enough money, they probably would not even take a look at this collaboration.


    No matter what, the other party had a high status. Even if the person was not an A-list celebrity, Mary did not dare to provoke him now. She could only lower her voice and speak nicely. She was already filled with anger after discussing the collaboration.


    She was already under a lot of pressure from working these two days, and her family kept finding trouble for her, causing her to be unable to rest well. She looked very exhausted. She even almost made a mistake when discussing business with the celebrity¡¯s manager.


    Her behavior made her agent very displeased, and the collaboration almost failed.


    After some verbal battle, they finally signed two B-list celebrities. During the closed beta of Rhythm Video, they would get the staff to create accounts and occasionally post some of their daily videos. The celebrities already had a very large fan base, so even if they casually posted a few videos, they would still bring a lot of traffic.


    Two celebrities still were not enough. Mary checked the time. There were still agents from both companies to discuss with, but fortunately, it was in the afternoon, which gave her plenty of time to rest.


    Regarding her brother¡¯s matter, Mary planned to wait until she was done with work. She did not believe that something could really happen to someone his age. The main thing was that her brother had done a lot of running away from home in the past. Every time, he had cut off all contact. Her family was worried about calling the police, but he was actually just throwing a tantrum.


    At a nearby coffee shop, Mary ordered a cup of coffee and bought a sandwich. She planned to eat something and continue working later. However, before she could eat much, her phone rang again.


    Thinking that it was her parents again, she slowly took it out of her pocket. However, when she saw the caller ID, there was no number on it. It was an empty number.


    Mary froze. ¡®Is such a call possible?¡¯


    She walked to the entrance of the coffee shop and pressed the answer button in confusion. A rough voice came from the phone. She knew immediately that the other party had used a voice changer.


    ¡®You¡¯re Mary?¡± the man asked bluntly when she picked up.


    Mary frowned. ¡°That¡¯s right. Who are you?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to care about who I am. I¡¯m calling you to tell you something. Your brother is in our hands now. If you want him to live, listen to me obediently. Otherwise, I¡¯ll kill him.¡± The voice was emotionless.


    ¡°My brother is well at home. How could he be with you? Who are you? Why are you calling me?¡± Mary did not believe him and thought he was a liar.


    Seeing that Mary did not believe him, the caller did not get angry. Instead, he chuckled. Then Mary heard a ding from the phone, and a familiar voice came from inside.


    ¡°Ah¡­ Sis, help me! Help me, they¡¯re hitting me¡­¡± It was her brother Mark¡¯s voice.


    Hearing his terrified cry for help, Mary felt a bang in her head, followed by a buzzing in her ears. Her brother was really missing, or he had been kidnapped!


    Seeing that Mary did not move, the other party did something to Mark again. Mark let out a heart-wrenching cry before his voice disappeared.


    ¡°How is it? Do you believe me now?¡± the man asked again.


    Mary¡¯s heart skipped a beat. She quickly tried to stop him. ¡°Did you really catch my brother? Please don¡¯t hurt him. What do you want? Do you want money? I¡¯ll give you as much as you want, but please don¡¯t hurt him!¡±


    Mary sat down on the steps, cold sweat breaking out on her forehead.


    However, although she was almost scared to death, she still tried her best to maintain her composure. She knew that if she acted too flustered at this moment, she would be completely controlled by the other party.


    The silence on the other side lasted only for a moment, followed by Mark¡¯s painful cry for help.


    It seemed that they were still torturing Mark. Mary had no idea what methods they were using, but she was so anxious that she was about to cry..

 Chapter 312 - Chapter 312: Betraying Yin Xun

    Chapter 312: Betraying Yin Xun


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    The caller smiled. The voice from the voice changer was like the whisper of a demon. It even had a little echo, making it sound especially sinister and terrifying. ¡°l don¡¯t want money. I just want you to do something for me. As long as you¡¯re obedient and help me with this, I¡¯ll return your brother to you.¡±


    Mary¡¯s heart sank. She had been an assistant for many years and had seen all kinds of people. She knew about kidnappings like this.


    If the other party simply wanted money, it would actually be a good thing. The hostage could be saved with just money. What she was most afraid of was the kind of people who did not want money and could threaten her life. It meant that this matter was very difficult to handle.


    Trying to suppress the panic in her heart, Mary asked in a low voice, ¡°What is


    ¡°You¡¯re the assistant of the boss of Xintao Company, right?¡± the person asked.


    Mary nodded and heard the other party continue, ¡°Since you¡¯re an assistant, it should be very easy for you to come into contact with the boss¡¯s confidential documents. What I want you to do is very simple. Go steal your boss¡¯s official seal and don¡¯t let her find out. I¡¯ll return it to you after I use it. ¡®


    Stealing official seals?


    The other party stated that they wanted Xintao¡¯s official seal, which meant that they must definitely Xintao¡¯s counterpart. As far as she knew, there was only one competitor for Xintao at the moment, and that was¡­ Blue Fox.


    Could it be that the other party was from Blue Fox?


    Mary¡¯s mind was racing. From the time she worked beside Yin Xun until now, the only person who had been going against Yin Xun was Second Miss¡¯s boyfriend, Si Fan. So, could the other party be Si Fan¡¯s lackey?


    Seeing that she did not respond for a long time, the person urged her impatiently, ¡°Hurry up, I don¡¯t have time to wait for you. Are you going to do it or not? This concerns your brother¡¯s life, so you¡¯d better make a careful decision. I¡¯ll give you three seconds to consider. If you¡¯re late, I won¡¯t wait any longer.¡±


    After that person finished speaking, he began to count.


    ¡°I¡¯ll do it!¡± Mary was afraid that he would really do something bad to Mark if he hung up the phone, so she quickly agreed.


    Seeing that Mary had agreed, the man chuckled softly. ¡°Hehehe, as expected of someone who has been an assistant for so many years. You ¡®re indeed sensible. Very good. Don¡¯t worry, as long as you help me steal the official seal, I won¡¯t hurt your brother.¡±


    ¡°The official seal has always been kept by our boss herself. I don¡¯t know where it is now. I need time to find it. Moreover, our boss is almost always in the company. I don¡¯t have the chance to make a move,¡± Mary said with a frown.


    The caller thought for a moment before saying, ¡°This matter is easy to handle. I¡¯ll give you three days. In these three days, I¡¯ll lure her into leaving the company and give you enough time to do it. As for the exact time and when you¡¯ll give me the official seal, you don¡¯t have to ask now. I¡¯ll contact you when the time comes.¡±


    That person was probably afraid that his information would be exposed if he spoke for too long. After saying that, he hung up.


    Mary looked at the empty number in the call record and frowned.


    At this moment, she felt as if she was dreaming. Everything was so unreal.


    She opened her mouth and said something that even she could not hear clearly. It was as if the voice came from a very far distance and was not from her at all.


    Mary did not get a good rest for the past few days. Now that she suddenly received the news that her brother had been kidnapped, she was still in a daze. She looked at the sky blankly and was about to leave.


    ¡°Hey, Miss, you haven¡¯t paid the bill!¡± However, she had only taken two steps when the waiter rushed out.


    ¡°Oh, I¡¯m sorry. I forgot.¡± Mary seemed to have lost her soul. She took out the money to pay the bill and left after that.


    Her brother had been kidnapped. This was not a dream. What she had only seen on the news had really happened to her. What should she do now?


    The man told her not to tell anyone, or he would torture Marj to death.


    He couldn¡¯t call the police. It seemed that if he wanted to save his brother, he could only do it the way he said.


    However, when she thought about how Yin Xun was usually so good to her, but she was going to betray her, Mary began to feel conflicted. She did not want to betray Yin Xun, but she also did not want to give up on saving her brother. What should she do?


    Mary was so focused on this that she didn¡¯t even notice that she was in the middle of the road. The road light had turned red, but she did not realize that she was still walking forward.


    ¡°Beep_??


    Suddenly, a few ear-piercing honks pulled her back to reality. She turned around and saw that the road was filled with cars. She was slowly running a red light.


    ¡°Do you want to die?¡¯


    ¡°If you want to die, go find a place with no one around. Don¡¯t delay other people¡¯s matters here.. How unlucky.

 Chapter 313 - Chapter 313: Danger Behind the Scenes

    Chapter 313: Danger Behind the Scenes


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Several drivers around her opened their windows and scolded her. When Mary saw this, she quickly apologized and walked quickly across the road.


    ¡°Sister Mary, I¡¯ve been looking for you for a long time, but you didn¡¯t answer my calls. So here you are.¡± A familiar voice sounded from behind her. Mary turned around and saw Yin Rui walking over with a shopping bag in his hand.


    When she saw Yin Rui, Mary remembered that she had only seen Yin Rui once in the morning. Because she was too busy, she had forgotten about Yin Rui.


    ¡®Where have you been?¡± Mary asked.


    Yin Rui was personally passed to her by Yin Xun to manage. When she thought of her own younger brother, she looked at Yin Rui deeply. This time, she had to take good care of Yin Rui. She could not let him suffer the same fate.


    The person Yin Xun had provoked this time was too strong. He even dared to do such an illegal thing. She did not know what they would do next. Her poor brother had already been implicated by her.


    ¡°Uh, I went to meet my classmate. Sister Mary, don¡¯t tell my sister. You know her personality. If she finds out that I¡¯m with my classmates, she¡¯ll kill me,¡± Yin Rui pleaded with Mary.


    Mary forced a smile and said, ¡°Just this once. I won¡¯t help you hide it next time.¡±


    Yin Rui was instantly happy. He smiled and said, ¡°Alright, Sister Mary. You¡¯re indeed the most understanding person.¡±


    The corners of Mary¡¯s mouth stiffened. It was obvious that she was faking a smile. It was an uglier sight than crying.


    Yin Rui realized that something was wrong and asked with concern, ¡°Sister Mary, what¡¯s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? If you¡¯re not feeling well, go back and rest in the afternoon. Don¡¯t tire yourself out. My sister will definitely give you leave.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine.¡± Mary raised her hand to pat her cheek and sighed. Then, she pretended to be casual and said, ¡°Lil Rui, let me ask you something. If, hypothetically, a person is captured by a criminal who threatens his family that he would be harmed, do you think you should agree to their demands or not?¡±


    ¡°Of course, we can¡¯t agree, but we can¡¯t reject him directly. This will anger the criminal. We should call the police. This is the safest way,¡± Yin Rui replied after thinking for a while.


    He was surprised by the question. After all, with their identities, it was always easy for them to attract the attention of criminals. He had heard much news about rich young masters being kidnapped since he was young, but the other party only wanted money in those cases.


    Because of their identities, the criminals also knew the consequences of killing them, so they basically disappeared after receiving the money. They wouldn¡¯t really kill them.


    However, Mary was still worried. She said, ¡°But the other party won¡¯t let us call the police and we¡¯re forbidden to tell anyone. They said that ifwe tell anyone, we¡¯ll torture him to death. What should we do?¡¯


    Although Mary usually looked like she was in a hurry and could help Yin Xun with any business matters, she was only limited to work issues. Mary had never encountered such a thing before, so when she suddenly received the news, she panicked and did not know how to resolve it.


    Yin Rui saw Mary¡¯s expression and asked in confusion, ¡°Sister Mary, what¡¯s wrong? Did something happen?¡±


    Hearing Yin Rui¡¯s question, Mary suddenly came to her senses. She could not continue; it would be troublesome if Yin Rui found out.


    Moreover, she had already been targeted. Yin Rui would only be in more danger if he continued to follow her.


    At the thought of this, Mary said to Yin Rui, ¡°Lil Rui, go back to the company first. I have something else to deal with. I¡¯ll bring you back after I¡¯m done.¡±


    Yin Rui frowned. Mary¡¯s face was pale and she looked dazed. It was obvious that something was wrong.


    He wanted to ask something else, but Mary did not give him the chance. She pushed him away before he could say anything. ¡°Go back quickly. I have some personal matters to attend to.¡±


    After asking Yin Rui to leave, Mary looked at the time. The appointment with the agent was in an hour. She had to hurry and prepare.


    Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang again.


    The phone had been ringing for the past few days, and it was always a bad thing. As a result, she was instinctively afraid when she heard her phone ring.


    She did not know if it was her parents or the mysterious caller. She took a deep breath and finally took out her phone from her pocket.


    Sure enough, it was her mother, the person she was most afraid of.


    ¡°Hello, Mom.


    ¡°Don¡¯t call me Mom, you wretched girl. I told you to find a solid job and find a rich man to marry, but you didn¡¯t listen and insisted on going out to work on your own. You said that you had to rely on yourself. Now, you haven¡¯t even made a name for yourself but you ¡®ve already implicated your brother! I don¡¯t care what methods you use.. Hurry up and save your brother, or I¡¯ll cut ties with you!¡¯

    Chapter 314: New Delivery Plan


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Mary had just opened her mouth when her mother interrupted her and scolded her.


    This time, Mary was not angry at being scolded. Instead, she focused on asking another question. She asked in shock, ¡°Mom, how did you know about this?¡±


    ¡°The person who kidnapped your brother called me. He said that as long as you¡¯re obedient, he won¡¯t hurt your brother. You must not tell anyone about this. Otherwise, if something happens to your brother, I won¡¯t forgive you! ¡®


    Her mother was probably frightened out of her wits; her voice was trembling.


    ¡°Mom, don¡¯t be so anxious. I know this matter is very serious, but we probably can¡¯t solve it ourselves, so shouldn¡¯t we call the police¡­¡± Although Mary was already panicking in her heart, she still tried her best to maintain her shock and comfort her mother.


    However, the moment she mentioned calling the police, her mother became even more agitated and stopped her. ¡°No! Do you want your brother to die? Let me tell you, if you dare to call the police, I¡¯ll commit suicide! Didn¡¯t the caller ask you to steal some seal? Just take it out secretly. Is work more important than your brother¡¯s life?¡±


    Mary was already anxious in her heart. At this moment, after being scolded by her mother, she finally could not take it anymore. She sobbed as she said, ¡°Do you know what the consequences would be if I stole the official seal? It would ruin President Yin!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t care. All I know is that you¡¯re finished if you don¡¯t save your brother. I¡¯m telling you, Mary, you have to save your brother or we¡¯ll break off our mother-daughter relationship!¡±


    With that, her mother hung up without waiting for Mary¡¯s reply.


    Mary was on the verge of a mental breakdown. She felt helpless and did not know who to ask for help. She squatted on the ground and cried.


    The passersby did not know what had happened to her and pointed at her, but no one went forward to help her. Mary squatted by the roadside and curled up into a ball, not knowing what to do.


    Yin Xun now had the funds and was preparing for the delivery system.


    She first contacted the two express delivery companies she worked with and informed them to continue to follow the current rules. There was no need to speed up their deliveries, but the price had to be lowered.


    ¡°President Yin, we are originally a small company, and we have been suppressed by a few other delivery companies. Our survival ability is already very weak. Now, we also have to lower the fees even further? How are we going to earn money?¡± The delivery boss was a little dissatisfied.


    Yin Xun comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. The platform will bear the delivery fees in the future. In short, we won¡¯t let you suffer a loss.¡±


    Then, Yin Xun told the two bosses about her plan for the new delivery fee.


    General users had a strange habit that they would rather buy something slightly more expensive than paying a delivery fee. If they had to pay a delivery fee every time they bought something, it would greatly reduce the user¡¯s desire to spend.


    Therefore, Yin Xun decided to raise the price of goods slightly and then use freebies to make up for the difference.


    As for the money that the delivery company earned, the platform would compensate for it.


    In addition, Yin Xun also decided to set up lockers at the entrances of various districts to store parcels. She would use a real name system and calculate points according to the number of times the parcels were stored. When the points reached a certain level, the users would receive a gift. This way, the users would also accept the chore of going out to collect the parcels.


    Of course, in order to prevent the deliveries from being stored in the cabinet for too long and piling up, the points were also linked to the storage time.


    ¡°If you take it away within 24 hours, your points will be normal. If it exceeds 24 hours but is sooner than 48 hours, your points will be reduced by half.


    If it exceeded 48 hours, the points obtained would be zero. This would not only motivate everyone to take the package as soon as possible, but also make it convenient for users who were not at home.


    Of course, the delivery company encouraged the users to take it as soon as possible. If they took it within an hour of delivery, the points would be doubled.


    This was the plan for two ordinary couriers. They only needed to make deliveries normally. In the end, as long as they placed the packages of the same area in the courier cabinet, they did not have to care about anything else.


    The bosses of the two delivery companies did not expect Yin Xun to think of such a novel and practical method. They were rather impressed. They happily agreed to reduce the delivery fee after this.


    ¡°Did President Yin think of all these by yourself?¡± The delivery boss asked in admiration.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Sort of. There¡¯s just one issue. Although your two companies are using ordinary express delivery routes, your service has to be good. You must be patient with your customers¡¯ questions and not get into an argument with them. If you encounter difficult customers, just report them to the platform. The platform has a special legal department to deal with them..

 Chapter 315 - Chapter 315: Something Happened

    Chapter 315: Something Happened


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    The biggest problem with express delivery was speed and the ability to ensure the safety of the goods. Users bought all kinds of things. When fragile items were involved, it was inevitable that they would occasionally break. When this happened, it was normal for customers to defend their rights and it made sense they would lose their temper.


    However, the employees of the delivery company could not lose their temper with the customers. Yin Xun remembered that in her original world, there was a case where a user gave a bad evaluation of the delivery, and the deliveryman gave the customer a cursed item for dead people in response. At that time, the matter became a big incident.


    Since she was running her own business now, she had to put an end to this kind of thing.


    The delivery boss agreed with everything. They did not expect Yin Xun to have such plans. Now, they were completely relieved by the direction they were heading.


    After discussing the issue of cooperative delivery with third parties, Yin Xun began to deal with Xintao Express.


    Xintao Express was the platform¡¯s own express delivery. It focused on speed and service quality. Yin Xun had to keep an eye on it personally.


    Just as she was reading the proposal, she saw Yin Rui walk in dejectedly.


    Yin Xun raised his eyebrows and asked, ¡®What happened? Why are you so dejected? Did Mary scold you?¡¯


    Yin Xun looked behind Yin Rui. There was no one else behind him. She asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t you guys go to talk about celebrities moving in? Why are you here so soon? Is Mary back already? How was the business discussion?¡±


    Yin Xun had asked too many questions, and Yin Rui did not know which to answer first.


    In the end, he did not answer any of them. He looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Sister, I keep feeling that something is wrong with Sis Mary..


    Yin Rui told Yin Xun what Mary had said and how she was before she came back.


    ¡°Does Sis Mary have a younger brother?¡± Yin Rui asked.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui and asked him with a frown, ¡°How did you know? Mary didn¡¯t tell you, right? The employee¡¯s information is confidential. You¡¯re not super smart, so it¡¯s impossible for you to make a judgment..


    Yin Rui did not expect to be insulted by Yin Xun when they were talking about serious matters. Yin Rui said indignantly, ¡°How am I not smart?!¡±


    After Yin Rui retorted, his expression immediately became serious. He looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°1 heard it from Second Sister. The last time she came home, the door to her room was not closed tightly. At that time, I went to the bathroom and heard her talking on the phone. She said something about catching Mary¡¯s brother..


    At this point, Yin Rui¡¯s eyes suddenly widened. He asked Yin Xun in disbelief, ¡°Big Sister, could it be that Second Sister did something like that?! But that¡¯s impossible, right? Although her brain isn¡¯t very good sometimes, she¡¯s still a kind person. It¡¯s impossible for her to kidnap someone else. Could it be Si Fan, then? That¡¯s even more unlikely. Brother Si Fan is a very nice person. He even bought me a game console¡­¡±


    Listening to Yin Rui¡¯s chattering away, Yin Xun asked him, ¡°Is Si Fan a good person just because he bought you a game console?¡±


    Yin Rui nodded heavily. ¡°Of course. Even Dad didn¡¯t buy it for me, but he gave it to me. It¡¯s a limited edition. I say, Big Sister, Ive always been puzzled. Why are you so against Brother Si Fan? Second Sister is the problematic one, not him.¡±


    Yin Xun did not say anything. At this moment, she was thinking if Mary¡¯s younger brother had really been kidnapped by Si Fan.


    Thinking back to Chen Meng, it seemed that Si Fan could really do such a thing.


    So what was the purpose? Did he want Mary to set her up or get something?


    She glanced at Yin Rui. Seeing how this guy trusted Si Fan so much, he would surely be in danger in the future.


    ¡°I understand. You can go back first.¡± Yin Xun lowered her eyes and began to think about how to deal with this matter.


    From Yin Rui¡¯s words, something had indeed happened to Mary¡¯s family. As for the truth of the matter, she needed to investigate, but she could not let more people know. Otherwise, if someone was killed, it would be too late to salvage the situation.


    This was a matter of life and death. Moreover, if Mary was targeted, a large part of the motive must be directed at her. She had to be prepared in advance.


    Yin Rui did not expect Yin Xun to ask him to go back directly. He thought that he would be assigned another job.


    ¡°Sis, are you suddenly being kind and letting me stop working for you?¡¯ Yin Rui looked quite happy.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at him. ¡°You can go home, but you can¡¯t go play with your scoundrel friends. If I find out, I¡¯ll send you to remedial classes and let you study from morning to night. You¡¯ll be busier than you are in school.¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Yin Rui pointed at Yin Xun and only spoke after a long while. ¡°Are you really my sister? Why are you so heartless?! They¡¯re my classmates, not bad people!¡±


    ¡°President Yin, something has happened.¡± As the two of them were talking, Mi Jin carried some documents over..

 Chapter 316 - Chapter 316: Taking The First Step

    Chapter 316: Taking The First Step


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    When Mi Jin came in and saw Yin Rui, he immediately stopped talking.


    Seeing this, Yin Xun said to Yin Rui, ¡°Go home first. Stay at home obediently.¡±


    ¡°Sister, didn¡¯t you say that you wanted me to come to work to train me? What¡¯s the matter? Is work still a secret that you can¡¯t let me hear about?¡± Yin Rui leaned in front of Yin Xun and asked her with a smile.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at him and said calmly, ¡°Alright, if you¡¯re really curious, we¡¯ll sign a contract. You¡¯ll become an official employee of Xintao and follow Mi Jin. Then, you¡¯ll know everything about Mi Jin¡¯s department.¡±


    Yin Rui grinned. He knew that Yin Xun would be like this, so he quickly rejected it. ¡°It¡¯s such an important confidential matter. Sis, you should listen to it by yourself. I¡¯m leaving!¡¯


    After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Yin Xun¡¯s reply. He did not even look back.


    He knew that Yin Xun would do what she said. If he really left any later, she might really pull him to sign the contract. Then, he would lose his freedom in the future.


    After Yin Rui left, Yin Xun asked Mi Jin, ¡®What¡¯s the matter?¡¯


    Mi Jin frowned and handed the information in his hand to Yin Xun. At the same time, he showed his phone to Yin Xun. ¡°We¡¯re currently advertising for Xintao to go online. It¡¯s the time when it¡¯s the most popular. Seeing that we¡¯re about to go online on a large scale, Blue Fox directly appeared in the mobile app store without any warning. Now, any phone can also download Blue Fox. I think they¡¯re deliberately beating us to the first step and occupying the market share in advance!


    ¡°I suspect that Blue Fox did this on purpose. They were always watching us. When Blue Fox saw that we were about to go online, they quickly launched their software online. After that, all the traffic that we obtained from advertising was taken away by them. President Yin, we can¡¯t continue to wait like this. Why don¡¯t we go online immediately? As for the delivery matter, can¡¯t you just release it afterward when it¡¯s done?¡±


    During this period of time, Mi Jin spent so much money to make the software more popular. Then, just as they were about to go online, another similar software beat them to the punch.


    The users were looking forward to the launch. When they saw that there was an alternative, they naturally went to Blue Fox to register and try shopping. When Xintao finally went online too, the traffic would be greatly reduced. Was this not equivalent to giving up the victory to others?


    Yin Xun glanced at the advertisement about Blue Fox on the phone. They were playing tricks. Some people who did not know much about using the Internet would mistake Blue Fox for Xintao.


    This was not plagiarism, so she could not sue him even if she wanted to.


    ¡°This matter can¡¯t be rushed. The more urgent it is, the easier it is to make mistakes.¡± After watching Blue Fox¡¯s promotion, Yin Xun opened the app store and looked at the app. She did not download it but only looked at the introduction. When she saw the words on the icon that were so small that they were almost invisible, she immediately smiled.


    Then, she said unhurriedly, ¡®Xintao and Xintao Express are complementary.


    Both of them are indispensable. You¡¯ve seen the results of the test on the Zhenku phones. Because our express delivery is relatively lousy, many users were dissatisfied. There are bad reviews, complaints, and even some people who went to Blue Fox because the express delivery was too slow. Express delivery is too important now. Now, these are the feedback from Zhenku users. There aren ¡®t even that many of them.


    ¡°Think about it. Once we¡¯re fully online, the number of registered users will increase exponentially. At that time, it will be even more difficult to rely on these two express delivery services. We have to wait for Xintao Express to be ready before going online. What¡¯s more, there seems to be a problem with their software¡­¡±


    Yin Xun supported her chin with a hand and pointed at the line of small words for Mi Jin to see. ¡°The closed beta experience version. Isn¡¯t this what¡¯s used to let users test bugs? I think Blue Fox couldn¡¯t wait any longer, so they went online without waiting for the tests.¡±


    Mi Jin followed Yin Xun¡¯s finger and saw the small words. He actually did not notice them just now as they were too small.


    However, there was actually nothing wrong with a trial version. Nowadays, there were many brands and models of phones. It was impossible to test every single phone. Different phones had different operating capabilities, so many softwares would be released as a trial version to see the stability of the software.


    The trial version was usually more simplified because once something went wrong, the consequences would be minimal. They could then take it off the shelves to test and repair it again.


    Yin Xun did not know anything about this, but Mi Jin did, so he explained to Yin Xun the details.


    However, Yin Xun was not in a hurry. Instead, he smiled and said, ¡°Si Fan doesn¡¯t think that far ahead. Through this period of observation, I realized that Si Fan doesn¡¯t have much business sense. His method of dealing with his enemies is physical assault. Since he can¡¯t solve the business problem, he¡¯ll deal with the person who caused the problem..¡±

    Thinking of Mary, Yin Xun could not help but worry.


    She did not know if Yin Rui was telling the truth or not. Regardless of whether it was true or not, she had to take this matter seriously. If it was true, then it was equivalent to Mary being implicated by her. Although she knew that the reason was not her fault, she still felt uncomfortable. Yin Xun decided to deal with this matter soon.


    ¡°How¡¯s the testing of Rhythm Video¡¯s software going?¡± There was no need to worry about Blue Fox at the moment. They would only know after observing for a while. Right now, there was another important thing for Mi Jin¡ªRhythm


    Video.


    Mi Jin nodded. ¡°It can be released at any time. This software is not like Xintao.


    That has many functions and needs to be simplified to the greatest extent. This app only needs to watch videos, so it should be very simple.¡±


    ¡°Alright, you stay in the company and continue to keep an eye on Blue Fox. Call me if there are any changes. I still have something to deal with now. I¡¯ll leave first.¡± After bidding farewell to Mi Jin, Yin Xun left Xintao.


    Sitting in the car, she took out her phone and called Mary to ask where she was now. After receiving the address, Yin Xun drove out of the parking lot.


    At this moment, Mary had just finished discussing the collaboration and was about to return to the company when Yin Xun invited her to the coffee shop.


    ¡°President Yin, this is the information that we have already discussed.¡± Mary placed the folder in front of Yin Xun. At this moment, both of her eyes were red and swollen. She was in low spirits, and it was obvious that she had just cried.


    Yin Xun picked up the document and glanced at it casually. She smiled slightly and said to Mary, ¡°I¡¯m not worried about you. I know you¡¯ve always been very headstrong. No matter what mission I give you, you¡¯ll complete it perfectly.¡±


    After taking a sip of coffee, Yin Xun asked Mary, ¡°Mary, what do you think of me as your boss?¡±


    Mary did not expect Yin Xun to suddenly ask her such a question. She thought that she must have made a mistake, and Yin Xun was blaming her. She immediately sat up straight and replied, ¡°President Yin, you are very good to me. No, that¡¯s not right. It¡¯s not just me. You are also very good to all the employees. You never let us work overtime for nothing. You would give us three times the salary for overtime work¡­¡±


    Mary began to talk about Yin Xun¡¯s good qualities one after another. In the end, even someone as thick-skinned as Yin Xun felt a little embarrassed.


    ¡°Stop, stop. I know I¡¯m fine. Not bad, not bad.¡± Yin Xun interrupted Mary and looked at her meaningfully. ¡°Then will you betray me?¡±


    Smack!


    Mary¡¯s hand trembled and she lost her grip on the coffee cup. It fell to the ground and shattered.


    ¡°Miss, are you hurt?¡± The waiter hurried over when he heard the commotion.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. We¡¯ll compensate you when we settle the bill later,¡± Yin Xun said.


    The waiter cleaned up the broken pieces, then brought Mary another cup.


    Mary waited for the waiter to leave before she whispered, ¡°No, no. Why would I betray you?¡¯


    Yin Xun sighed and looked at Mary intently. ¡°I believe you. Since that¡¯s the case, you¡¯re my employee. If you encounter anything, you can tell me at any time. No matter what it is, I¡¯ll help you.¡±


    She was giving Mary a chance. Yin Xun did not expect Mary to tell the truth right now.


    This was a coffee shop, and there were many people around her. She did not know if there would be anyone watching her. Yin Xun waited for Mary to take the initiative to tell her.


    The reason why she had chosen to call out Mary so boldly was to guard against the people behind her. They would only be at ease if they saw that she knew nothing.


    ¡°I, I actually¡­¡± Mary¡¯s expression was conflicted. She wanted to say it, but she did not dare to. After hesitating for a while, she still did not say anything.


    Yin Xun smiled and comforted her. ¡°Alright, actually, I came over to see your results. I¡¯ve been very busy recently. Since you¡¯ve already signed the contract,


    I¡¯ll give you a few days off. How about a paid vacation? Go back and relax. Leave the rest to me.¡¯


    ¡°No, there¡¯s no need for that. It¡¯s fine. I can do it. There¡¯s no need to rest.¡± Mary was so nervous that her face instantly turned red.


    Yin Xun had been staring at Mary. Seeing her unnatural expression, she immediately understood that Mary had something on her mind. This was because no matter what difficulties Mary encountered at work, she had never been like this.


    It seemed that Yin Rui was right.


    ¡°Okay, I got it. I just came to see how you¡¯re doing. Since there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll leave.¡± Yin Xun got up to pay the bill and said goodbye to Mary.


    After leaving the coffee shop, Yin Xun returned to her car and called Mi Jin.


    ¡°Tell the people in the company not to go near my office if there¡¯s nothing important today,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    Mi Jin was confused and asked, ¡°President Yin, what¡¯s this for? Is there something wrong?¡¯

 Chapter 318 - Chapter 318: Personally Delivering

    Chapter 318: Personally Delivering

    ¡°You don¡¯t have to ask. I¡¯ll tell you in the future. In any case, just don¡¯t let unrelated people near my office. If there are any other abnormal movements, remember to inform me.


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡±


    After Yin Xun finished instructing Mi Jin, he drove to the warehouse of Xintao Express Delivery.


    Now that Xintao Express was in the trial operating stage, she needed to experience the system herself just in case. After all, she used to be a worker and knew how the person-in-charge could deceive her superiors.


    If she did not see it for herself, she would only see what the person-in-charge wanted her to see.


    The warehouse was in the suburbs. Yin Xun drove for almost an hour before arriving. Before she came, she informed the person-in-charge and asked them to arrange things for her. In order to have better deliveries, Yin Xun even learned to drive a delivery car.


    Yin Xun wanted to get to work directly when she arrived, but she did not expect that all the employees would line up to welcome her when she arrived.


    ¡°Welcome President Yin for the inspection!¡± Dozens of employees stood in two rows. They held balloons in their hands as they said this sentence in unison.


    The person-in-charge, Wen Yan, had a face full of smiles as he walked over and greeted Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, are you going to the warehouse to inspect, or are you going to the office to look through the information?¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    Before she came, she had clearly told Wen Yan to keep a low profile. Why was he so high-profile? How was she going to blend in naturally and observe the working atmosphere?


    ¡°Neither. I want to experience the feeling of being a courier myself,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly. ¡°Didn¡¯t I say that you just have to help me prepare? Don¡¯t make it public. Why did you pull all the employees over?¡±


    Wen Yan laughed as he said, ¡®They are having a break now, and the leader came over personally to work. They will definitely welcome you.¡± After he finished speaking, Wen Yan went over to Yin Xun¡¯s side and quietly said, ¡°President Yin, the salary that you are giving them is rather high. They are set to receive double the usual overtime, after all.


    ¡°Do you really want to be a courier yourself? But it¡¯s very tiring to deliver packages. A man will be exhausted after working for a day. You¡¯re a girl. I¡¯m afraid you can¡¯t take the burden¡­¡± Wen Yan looked troubled. How could a boss personally come down to do physical work?


    ¡°It¡¯s alright. Just treat it as me experiencing life,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Seeing that Yin Xun insisted, Wen Yan could only do as he was told.


    ¡°Everyone, disperse and go take a break!¡± Wen Yan signaled for everyone to disperse. He turned his head around and said to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, it is not that I am trying to curry favor with you on purpose. This is your first time doing this kind of work. You don¡¯t know how to bring the goods around when you are delivering packages. Although the area that everyone sends to is fixed, that area is also very big. Even the old employees would have trouble finding a specific place, let alone you.


    ¡°Now, everyone knows that you¡¯re here and what you look like. When you go and experience the system, you might not know the address. Just ask one of our employees and you¡¯ll figure it out. Everyone is wearing work clothes, so it¡¯s easy to recognize them.¡±


    Yin Xun took a deep look at Wen Yan. She did not expect this person to be so considerate. She could not rule out the possibility that he just wanted to please her, though.


    However, his was of explanation was not bad.


    ¡°Alright, thank you.¡± Yin Xun accepted the help with a smile.


    Wen Yan helped Yin Xun bring a small three-wheeled motorcycle and personally taught her what to do.


    This world was not very developed yet, unlike Yin Xun¡¯s original world, where everyone relied on electronic equipment and everything could be done by scanning a code. In this world, delivery addresses actually needed to be memorized manually. There was no map, so she could only rely on herself to find the place. Seeing that so many goods were in different places, Yin Xun already felt pressured.


    After understanding everything that she needed to know, Yin Xun finally left to deliver the goods. She drove the three-wheeled motorcycle that was filled with packages. The employees who passed by all greeted her. ¡°President Yin, if you get lost, you must give us a call. We will go look for you. Don¡¯t wander around on your own. You will definitely get lost!¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    Listening to the staff¡¯s instructions, she felt like a child who was going on a long trip. Her parents were worried that she would not be able to find her way, so they kept reminding her.


    Fortunately, Wen Yan had given Yin Xun a map of the area. Yin Xun¡¯s delivery went smoothly. She carried the package and drove to deliver it to the customers personally. From time to time, she would record where she needed to improve and where she needed to pay attention.


    The things Yin Xun went to deliver were relatively small packages. They were not heavy and the range was quite small.


    However, it was afternoon and the sun was at its hottest. There was no shade in front of the three-wheeled motorcycle, so the sun shone directly on Yin Xun, making her sweat profusely. The hair on her forehead was stuck to her forehead, making her look a little disheveled..

 Chapter 319 - Chapter 319: Fang Yaos Delivery

    Chapter 319: Fang Yao¡¯s Delivery


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    ¡°Looks like we have to build a shed for the delivery vehicles,¡± Yin Xun muttered to herself.


    In just a short while, Yin Xun felt that she had been tanned to a certain degree, and her exposed skin was starting to turn red.


    Although she was very tired, Yin Xun felt that she was doing alright until she saw the next delivery address she was about to travel to. She immediately wailed in her heart.


    There was actually an order from Fang Yao. She had to personally deliver it to the Fang Corporation building. After all, Xintao Express Delivery was mainly about delivering goods to the doorstep of the customer.


    However, Fang Yao¡¯s injuries had yet to recover. Should he not be at home now?


    He was shopping in Xintao and had even chosen Xintao Express. He probably wanted to see how the project was doing. After all, his family was the investor.


    Since that was the case, she had to serve him well and try to satisfy Fang Yao.


    At the thought of this, Yin Xun tidied up her appearance, then drove the car to the entrance of the building and walked in.


    However, just as she reached the door, she was stopped by the security guard. ¡°Hey, you¡¯re not allowed to enter. Leave the package here. The employees will come to get it after work. ¡±


    Since she was not allowed to enter the building, Yin Xun could only give up. However, she still had to ask the client what to do. As long as the client was willing, Xintao Express could change the time and address before delivering it to the client personally. This was Yin Xun¡¯s request.


    Yin Xun took out her express delivery phone and called Fang Yao. After a long time, the call was picked up.


    ¡°Mr. Fang Yao, is it? I¡¯m from Xintao Express. Your delivery has arrived, but the security guard at the entrance of the building won¡¯t let me in. Do you want to change the time or address, or do you want to come down and get it yourself? Or do you want me to leave the delivery at the door and you can pick it up when you have the time?¡±


    Yin Xun did not deliberately change her voice because she felt that Fang Yao would not recognize her just by listening to her voice. Moreover, she was using a mobile phone that was specially used for express delivery.


    However,Yin Xun underestimated Fang Yao. Just as she finished asking, she heard Fang Yao ask her in confusion, ¡°Yin Xun? Are you Yin Xun?¡¯


    Yin Xun did not expect Fang Yao¡¯s ears to be so sharp.


    She smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°Yes, I was experiencing the delivery system. I didn¡¯t expect you to buy something too. Your building doesn¡¯t allow entry, so where should I put it? ¡®


    Since Fang Yao already knew it was her, there was no need to be particular since the two of them were so familiar with each other. She would follow Fang Yao¡¯s instructions.


    ¡°Okay, wait for me.¡± Fang Yao hung up the phone.


    She thought that Fang Yao would ask her to leave it at the entrance of the building or bring it home for him after work. However, she did not expect Fang Yao to personally call the front desk and ask the security guards to let her in!


    ¡°Miss Yin, I am sorry. We did not know that you were President Fang¡¯s¡­friend, so we did not let you in. Please go in now¡­¡± The security guard who did not let Yin Xun in earlier apologized to Yin Xun.


    At this moment, the receptionist also came out. She had a strange look on her face as she looked at Yin Xun. She smiled and said, ¡°l am sorry, Miss Yin. I have made you wait for a long time. President Fang is waiting for you upstairs. I will bring you over.¡±


    ¡°Uh¡­ Okay.¡± Yin Xun    nodded with a smile and followed the receptionist into the building.


    After entering the building, Yin Xun secretly sized up the interior. She was currently a courier, and the building was filled with employees. They did not know her identity, so she had to leave a good impression on them.


    The Fang Corporation was indeed one of the top companies in the country. The interior of the building was much better than the Yin Corporation. It was filled with the smell of money.


    From the moment she walked into the building, every employee who passed by was sizing her up. Perhaps they were curious as to why a courier like her could enter the building.


    The receptionist brought Yin Xun to the 23rd floor.


    Yin Xun realized that this floor was a meeting room. Through the glass wall, Yin Xun saw Fang Yao having a meeting inside.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had come up, Fang Yao gestured for her to wait. Yin Xun nodded in agreement.


    When the people in the meeting saw Fang Yao looking outside, they all turned to look at Yin Xun. When they saw Yin Xun¡¯s delivery uniform, they all revealed surprised expressions.


    The receptionist invited Yin Xun to sit next door and wait for Fang Yao. She poured a cup of tea for Yin Xun and said, ¡°Miss Yin, our President Fang is in a meeting right now. You might need to wait for him for a while. He said that he has something to tell you.¡±


    ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Yin Xun did not stand on ceremony. She had not drunk a sip of water since she started working and had sweated buckets. She was indeed thirsty.


    Facing the gazes of the other employees of the company , she did not shy away. She was not doing any shady work. It was just delivering packages. It was normal. There was nothing to be embarrassed about..

    She was only worried before because the other party was Fang Yao.


    Previously, Fang Yao had been skeptical about her project. Now, he was even using Xintao to see their express delivery. It seemed like he wanted to experience it for himself and see what was different.


    For the sake of their future collaboration, Yin Xun decided that she had to perform particularly well in front of him.


    The receptionist was very responsible. She sat beside Yin Xun and waited for Fang Yao. After five to six minutes, Fang Yao finally came out of the conference room. The receptionist greeted him and left.


    ¡°This is for you.¡± Yin Xun handed the package to Fang Yao. ¡®Why are you looking for me?¡±


    Fang Yao sized Yin Xun up and asked, ¡°Do you still have deliveries to make?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Yes, but not many. There are¡­ about four or five more? It shouldn¡¯t take long to send them all. It¡¯s the trial operating stage now. There aren¡¯t many people using this delivery, so there¡¯s no rush.¡±


    ¡°Do you mind if I deliver the rest with you?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    YinXun, ¡°! ¡±


    Fang Yao actually wanted to go with her to deliver the packages! Yin Xun shuddered at the thought of Fang Yao sitting on a three-wheeled motorcycle in a suit and leather shoes.


    Her lips twisted into a smile as she agreed. ¡°Sure, but it could be exhausting.¡±


    The two of them went downstairs together. When she came in, Yin Xun was already eye-catching enough. Now, with Fang Yao by her side, what the people saw was the president and the delivery person walking out while laughing and chatting together. The delivery person was even a woman. Everyone¡¯s minds immediately exploded.


    The employees of the company loved to watch the commotion. When Fang Yao and Yin Xun left the building, everyone gathered together to discuss what was going on. After asking each other, they realized that no one knew about Yin Xun, so they all looked at the front desk. The receptionist must have known something when she brought Yin Xun to look for Fang Yao.


    Although the receptionist did not know Yin Xun¡¯s exact identity, she guessed that their relationship was not ordinary.


    The discussion among the company¡¯s staff was very spicy, but Fang Yao and


    Yin Xun, who had already gone out, were unaware of this.


    The two of them arrived at the entrance. When Fang Yao saw Yin Xun¡¯s three-wheeled motorcycle, the corners of his mouth twitched.


    Could he go back on his word now? Before he came down, he thought that Yin Xun was driving a truck.


    ¡°Are you driving this?¡± Fang Yao pointed at the three-wheeled motorcycle and asked Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. Although it¡¯s not as flashy as other delivery companies, it¡¯s very practical. Because it¡¯s small, it¡¯s nimble. It can shuttle through various small roads and save the delivery time. However , without some shade, it¡¯s a problem. It gets too hot. It¡¯s also troublesome if it rains, so I plan to get someone to modify it when I get back.¡±


    Looking at Fang Yao¡¯s expression, Yin Xun immediately understood what he was thinking. A mischievous thought suddenly arose in her heart. She half-provoked and half-persuaded him. ¡°Do you feel embarrassed by this? Of course, you have a good image, President Fang. How can you take such a small vehicle to deliver packages with me? If you don¡¯t want to ride on it, we can talk after I deliver the packages.¡±


    As she spoke, Yin Xun walked to the three-wheeled motorcycle and was about to start the engine.


    Fang Yao quickly stopped her. ¡°Wait, I¡¯ll go with you. Let¡¯s talk on the way. This is also my project, after all. I want to experience it for myself.¡±


    Two people could sit in the vehicle. Fang Yao sat down next to Yin Xun. After Fang Yao sat down, Yin Xun handed him a mask. ¡°I¡¯ll give you a mask.¡±


    ¡°No need.¡± Fang Yao held the armrest with his other hand. ¡°There¡¯s nothing to be embarrassed about. If you can lower yourself to do such a thing, so can I.¡±


    Yin Xun said awkwardly. ¡°Wearing a mask isn¡¯t to prevent others from seeing us. It¡¯s to block the sun.¡± Yin Xun raised her hand and pointed at the sun. ¡°The sun is too hot. It will burn your face.¡±


    Fang Yao.


    How awkward. He wanted to go back even more now.


    However, it would be even more embarrassing to retreat now. As long as he did not show any embarrassment, Yin Xun wouldn¡¯t know that he was embarrassed.


    ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll put it on.¡± Fang Yao pretended to be calm as he took the mask.


    Yin Xun turned the throttle on the handle and continued on her journey to deliver packages.


    ¡°Actually, the normal delivery system is already complete. According to your plan, as long as it¡¯s slightly improved, the trials should be done by the person-in-charge. Why are you running it yourself?¡± Fang Yao asked in a low voice.


    At this moment, the vehicle was shaking a little. It was evident that Yin Xun was a newbie. The motorcycle was very stiff, and when it turned a corner, the movements were very unrestrained. Fang Yao reached out and held the armrest tightly. He was worried that he would be sent flying out of the vehicle..

 Chapter 323 - Chapter 323: The Pestering Fat Guy

    Chapter 323: The Pestering Fat Guy


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    The door was opened very quickly. A man in his thirties came out. He was half a head taller than Yin Xun and looked like he weighed 200 pounds. Even his face was meaty. At this moment, he was nibbling on a chicken drumstick with grease all over his mouth.


    Although the man was fat, he did not look very strong. His skin was tanned, and the thick dark circles under his eyes were visible. It was hard to tell if his bean-sized eyes were naturally small or if they were not fully open. In either case, he looked like he had stayed up too late.


    ¡®You¡¯re two minutes late. Why are you so slow? Didn¡¯t you say that you¡¯ll be perfectly punctual?¡± The fat guy did not take the package. Instead, he looked at Yin Xun and questioned her unhappily.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was a girl, the fatty¡¯s expression became even more disdainful and mocking. ¡°Oh, you¡¯re actually a cutie. You must be quite capable. I didn¡¯t expect a woman to take on such a job. Since you¡¯re so tired, do you want to come in and rest for a while? As long as you say something nice, I¡¯ll forgive you.¡±


    Yin Xun was not angry at the fatty¡¯s provocation. She thought that this was a classic example of being troubled by a client. She took note of and wrote it down in the employee handbook to teach them what to do.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, sir. Our delivery time follows the given time period. There¡¯s an hour¡¯s fluctuation to be expected. You don¡¯t have an elevator here too, so I had to climb the stairs, which caused a delay. However, we didn¡¯t exceed the given period, so we¡¯re not considered late. If you¡¯re not satisfied, we¡¯ll try our best to be faster next time. Please sign to accept the package,¡± Yin Xun said with a


    smile and a polite tone.


    However, it was obvious that Fatty did not want to drop the matter just like that. He still did not take the package. Instead, he stared at Yin Xun with his lifeless eyes.


    He did not relent and said, ¡°What time period? The time counts as long as it¡¯s written here. Two minutes is also time. You can do a lot of things with that.


    You¡¯ve delayed me for so long. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me? Also, what do you mean by saying I don¡¯t have an elevator? Are you mocking the place I live in? You¡¯re a delivery person. Do you live a sweet life? Could it be that you live in a villa? From the looks of it, you don¡¯t have any money. You definitely don¡¯t live as well as me.¡±


    Yin Xun continued to smile. ¡°Sir, it doesn¡¯t matter where I live. Can you please sign for the delivery first? If you misunderstood our delivery schedule, then I apologize. We didn¡¯t mark it clearly. When I go back, I¡¯ll tell our leader to pay attention to this problem. How about this? We¡¯ll refund you the delivery fee this time. What do you say?¡±


    Perhaps it was because Yin Xun was a woman who seemed easy to bully; the fat guy pulled a long face and refused. ¡°No, this is your own mistake. You shouldn¡¯t have charged me for the delivery in the first place. Not only that, but you also have to compensate me for waiting a little longer. I don¡¯t have high expectations. Just compensate me half of the money for the delivery.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s patience was wearing thin, but for the sake of the customer¡¯s experience, she suppressed her impatience and refused the demand with a smile. ¡°Sir, that won¡¯t do. Our delivery didn¡¯t exceed our time limit. In addition, the money for the purchase isn¡¯t handled by us. Can you please sign for it? Please don¡¯t make things difficult for me, okay? I¡¯m just an ordinary employee who delivers according to the company¡¯s agreed time. I don¡¯t have that much power.¡±


    In the end, Yin Xun could barely maintain her smile.


    It was obvious that this person was deliberately looking for trouble. If she still could not persuade him, she would not care anymore.


    As expected, the fatty still insisted on asking for a refund and his words became more and more unpleasant.


    Yin Xun¡¯s last bit of patience was finally worn out. She put on a fake smile and said to the man, ¡°Sir, it seems like you don¡¯t want this package anymore since you haven¡¯t signed for it. It¡¯s okay. If you don¡¯t sign, it means that you refuse to accept it. In that case, I¡¯ll help you return it. As long as the goods are returned, the merchant will give you a full refund. ¡®


    After saying that, Yin Xun did not want to continue arguing with the fat guy. She turned around and was about to leave.


    ¡°Stop right there!¡± Fatty did not expect Yin Xun to try and leave. He immediately rushed over to stop her.


    Although the man was fat, he was surprisingly agile. In a flash, he ran to Yin Xun¡¯s side and reached out to grab her hand.


    Yin Xun had not been training for nothing. She sparred with Fang Yao every night. Although she did not know any powerful moves, she could still dodge an attack.


    She tilted her body and dodged the fat man¡¯s outstretched hand.


    Yin Xun looked at the fatty and said with a frown, ¡°Sir, if you have anything to say, please speak nicely. Don¡¯t touch me. I asked you to sign for it just now, but you refused. Now you won¡¯t let me leave. What exactly do you want?¡±


    ¡®What do I want? You¡¯ll know what I want if you come with me inside and have a chat¡­¡± the fatty said as he tried to grab Yin Xun..

    However, before he could touch Yin Xun, his hand was stopped in midair. The fatty looked up and saw a man who was nearly a head and a half taller than him.


    ¡®Who are you? Where did you come from?¡± the fatty asked unhappily. ¡°Yo, you¡¯re dressed like a gigolo. Why is that? Are you planning to save the damsel in distress?¡±


    Just now, when the fatty reached out to grab Yin Xun, Yin Xun was about to dodge when Fang Yao rushed over. Perhaps it was because of her instinctive trust; Yin Xun did not move the moment she saw Fang Yao coming over.


    Fang Yao helped her block Fatty¡¯s groping hand.


    ¡°Do you want the package or not? If you don¡¯t want it, then return it. If you still want it, sign for it quickly.¡± Fang Yao was not as patient as Yin Xun. He looked at the man¡¯s hand in disgust. It was covered in the oil of the chicken drumstick that he had been holding.


    The moment he saw Fang Yao, there was a moment of panic in Fatty¡¯s eyes. However, when he saw that Fang Yao had an injured arm, he became more confident and even put on airs.


    He craned his neck. ¡°Why do you care if I want it or not? You¡¯re not a courier.


    Are you passing by? Are you my neighbor? But why haven¡¯t I seen you before? Oh, I remember now. You must be a tenant. I remember my neighbor moved recently. Now he¡¯s looking for a renter.¡±


    As the fatty spoke, he sized up Fang Yao. Seeing that he was dressed formally and his clothes looked good, he sneered and said, ¡°You¡¯re dressed quite well. You¡¯re pretending to be a successful person. Aren¡¯t you still renting a house here? I advise you to mind your own business, or else I¡¯ll beat you up!¡¯


    Fang Yao glanced at the fatty and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Let¡¯s go. Looks like he doesn¡¯t plan to accept this package. This kind of person is obviously a scoundrel. There¡¯s no need to entertain him¡­¡±


    Before he could finish speaking, Fatty heard that he had been called a scoundrel. He immediately pulled his hand out of Fang Yao¡¯s grasp. He was clearly wearing a short-sleeved shirt, but he pretended to roll up his sleeves twice.


    After getting ready, Fatty raised his fist and threw a punch at Fang Yao without warning.


    ¡°Be careful!¡± Yin Xun warned Fang Yao.


    She had been staring at Fatty since the beginning because she could tell that the man was not in his right state of mind. Fang Yao, meanwhile, was looking at her.


    Fang Yao was already injured. If he was punched by Fatty now, his injuries would worsen.


    Yin Xun wanted to help Fang Yao block it, but it was too late. She was not as fast as Fatty.


    Seeing that Fatty¡¯s fist was about to hit Fang Yao¡¯s face, Fang Yao seemed to predict Fatty¡¯s actions before turning around. He tilted his head and dodged Fatty¡¯s punch. Then, he stretched out his undamaged arm and grabbed Fatty¡¯s hand. He bent his knee and pushed against Fatty¡¯s waist. After that, he quickly stretched out his leg to trip Fatty¡¯s foot. The man lost his balance and fell to the ground.


    Fang Yao only used one hand and one leg to knock down the fatty who looked like he weighed more than 200 pounds.


    ¡°Your skills are impressive. No wonder I can¡¯t beat you.¡± Yin Xun sighed when she saw this.


    Fang Yao smiled and said, ¡°As long as you train every day, one day. ¡®


    ¡°I can beat you!¡± Yin Xun quickly finished the sentence.


    Fang Yao shook his head and said, ¡°No, you won¡¯t be able to beat me even if you train your entire life. As long as you keep training, you will be able to beat him one day.¡± After saying that, he even kicked the fatty who was lying on the ground.


    Knocking the fatty down was not enough to vent his anger. He thought about how the fatty tried to pull Yin Xun into the house just now¡ªwho knew what would happen if she went in? He doubted he was overthinking; this fatty looked quite unsatisfied. If Yin Xun really went in, she would probably be in danger.


    Fortunately, he had come with her today. If he had not followed her, what if Yin Xun got pushed around?


    At the thought of this, Fang Yao looked at Fatty even more darkly.


    ¡°F*ck, how dare you hit me? I¡¯ll kill you!¡± The fatty must have been winded by the fall just now. It took him more than ten seconds to finally muster up a curse.


    He quickly got up, raised his fist, and rushed toward Fang Yao. Fang Yao dodged to the side, and Fatty rushed past him. Fang Yao took the opportunity to kick the man¡¯s butt. Then, he used his knee to knock Fatty¡¯s waist and grabbed the man¡¯s arm with his other hand.


    ¡°Wait!¡± Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao was about to hit Fatty and quickly stopped


    Fang Yao turned around and looked at Yin Xun. Because Yin Xun did not want to hurt the client, he was about to let go.


    However, before he could do anything, he heard Yin Xun ask the fat man, ¡°Are there surveillance cameras in this building?¡¯


    Fatty did not know why Yin Xun suddenly asked about the surveillance camera. He said angrily, ¡°Of course not. There are only a few residents in this entire building. The buildings are so old that they should have been moved away long ago. Otherwise, do you think I would have tried to pull you into the house?¡±


    There was no need for Yin Xun to ask anything else. The fatty had already said it himself.


    Hearing the man¡¯s words, Yin Xun revealed a satisfied smile. She said to Fang Yao, ¡°There are no surveillance cameras and no bystanders. We can hit him now..¡±

    The two of them gave Fatty a good beating.


    After the beating, Yin Xun even threatened him. ¡°Let me tell you, I know where you live and what you look like. If you dare to do such a thing to our employees in the future, it won¡¯t be as simple as just beating you up next time. Think about it, I¡¯m a woman who dares to run around delivering packages. How can I not have some protection? ¡®


    Fatty was beaten black and blue. Now he knew that these two were not to be trifled with.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, it¡¯s all my fault. I won¡¯t dare to do it again¡­¡± The fatty apologized as he bowed.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Yin Xun called for Fang Yao to leave. Since this kind of person did not really break the law, then other than beating him up, there was no other method to deal with him.


    ¡°It¡¯s really unlucky to have to hit such a person. Come and wipe your hands.¡± Yin Xun took out a tissue and handed it to Fang Yao. She glanced at the fatty and said disdainfully.


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s angry expression and thinking about how she had been smiling just now, Fang Yao could not help but find it funny. Thinking about this, he laughed out loud.


    Yin Xun looked at him in confusion.


    Just as Fang Yao was about to speak, he suddenly heard the sound of something shattering.


    The two of them looked at each other and looked at Fatty¡¯s house in unison. Fatty had not closed the door when he first came out. At this moment, the door was half open, and his voice seemed to be coming from his house.


    Fatty panicked when he heard the sound. He turned around and rushed toward the door.


    Fang Yao reacted quickly and pinned Fatty against the wall. Then, he grabbed


    Fatty¡¯s collar and questioned him, ¡°Why are you so nervous?¡±


    ¡°This¡­ No, Big Brother, I just want to go home. I¡¯m not nervous. I don¡¯t want the things anymore. Let go of me. I won¡¯t make things difficult for you. Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t complain. I promise!¡± Fatty¡¯s attitude took a 180-degree turn.


    Yin Xun listened carefully. Other than the sound just now, there was no other sound inside. However, she saw the fatty¡¯s anxious expression. There was clearly something wrong.


    She exchanged glances with Fang Yao. Yin Xun gave him a look, signaling him to keep an eye on the fatty.


    Fang Yao understood and did not let go.


    Yin Xun walked to the door and carefully looked inside.


    Seeing her actions, Fatty became anxious. He no longer looked as humble as before and began to struggle, trying to break free from Fang Yao¡¯s grip no matter what.


    However, Fatty struggled for a long time but could not break free from Fang Yao¡¯s grip. He could only beg the two of them, ¡°Big shots, I was wrong. Please let me go. I don¡¯t have anything at home. I still have a job. I want to go back to work¡­¡±


    No matter how much Fatty begged, Fang Yao refused to let go.


    Yin Xun carefully walked into the house. She had just entered the living room. The house was dirty and messy, and there was a rotten smell. Even if she was wearing a mask, it did not help. The smell directly entered her nose through the mask. She had not smelled it outside just now.


    Seeing Yin Xun walk into the house, the fatty was so anxious that his face and neck turned red. He begged for mercy and cursed at the same time as if he had gone crazy. Seeing his reaction, Fang Yao tightened his grip.


    There was nothing in the living room. Yin Xun looked at the room beside him. The door was closed. She listened for a moment¡ªthere seemed to be a very soft sound in the room.


    Looking at the door, Yin Xun bit her lips gently before holding the handle and turning it gently. With a creak, the door was opened. Then, the scene in the room came into view. Even Yin Xun, who had seen countless things, was so frightened that she almost screamed when she saw the scene in front of her.


    Yin Xun resisted the urge to throw up. He turned around and rushed to the door. Fang Yao said, ¡°Don¡¯t let go of him. Hurry up and call the police.¡± As she spoke, she took out her phone and called the police.


    After Yin Xun was done with that, Fang Yao saw that she seemed to be frightened and asked curiously, ¡°What¡¯s inside?¡±


    ¡°A girl was imprisoned by him. Maggots are growing in the places where her body is rotting, but she doesn¡¯t seem to be dead yet. She¡¯s still moving¡­¡±


    Thinking of the girl¡¯s appearance, Yin Xun felt nauseous again. She retched and tried to suppress the discomfort.


    Just now, she saw a naked girl tied to the bed with wounds all over her body. Because she had not received treatment, the wounds had already rotted. She did not know if the stench in the room was because of the girl¡¯s wounds.


    The girl¡¯s hair was very long and covered her face, so Yin Xun did not see what she looked like.


    The girl must have heard the commotion at the door and tried her best to knock down the vase on the table to get help. Although she was pitiful and Yin Xun wanted to help her, it was not appropriate for her to take action. The girl should be handed over to the police..

 Chapter 326 - Chapter 326: Called The Police Again

    Yin Xun told Fang Yao about the general situation inside. Fang Yao frowned deeply after hearing it.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on with that girl inside?¡± Yin Xun walked in front of the fat man and asked coldly.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had already discovered the secret in the room, the fat man, who had been agitated just now, quietened down and stopped struggling.


    ¡°This matter has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to meddle in other people¡¯s business.¡± The fatty stared at Yin Xun with a gloomy gaze. Because Yin Xun had always been wearing a mask, he did not know what Yin Xun looked like. He stared fixedly at Yin Xun¡¯s eyes, trying to remember her appearance.


    Yin Xun said nonchalantly, ¡°Sure. Anyway, we¡¯ve already called the police. We¡¯ll know what happened when the police arrive.¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Upon hearing that she was going to call the police, Fatty became agitated again. He threatened Yin Xun, ¡°Call the police? I know where your company is. Aren¡¯t you afraid that I will take revenge on you?¡±


    Yin Xun shrugged. ¡°What is there to be afraid of? If you dare to attack me, I¡¯ll let you spend the rest of your life in prison. Do you think you¡¯re in any position to threaten me?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯d better not let me get the chance. Otherwise, I¡¯ll let you experience the same fate as the woman inside¡­¡± Fatty said viciously.


    Fang Yao saw that Fatty was still not being sincere. He raised a leg and kicked Fatty¡¯s knee. He said in a deep voice, ¡°You won¡¯t get the chance. You can stay in prison until your next life.¡±


    Yin Xun looked downstairs and realized that no one had come out to take a look after such a huge commotion. Even if this was the top floor, the people downstairs should be able to hear it.


    Thinking of the dust and spider webs in the corridor when she first came in, Yin Xun understood. It seemed that there were not many families living in this building.


    Fatty must have known that no one would notice anything happening here. That was why he was so bold.


    The police soon rushed over. Because Fang Yao and Yin Xun were the first to be discovered, they stayed behind to give statements.


    When she saw the police, Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. The officer was also stunned.


    ¡°Miss Yin, it¡¯s you again.¡± Zuo Liang was a little exasperated as he greeted Yin Xun.


    ¡°Haha, what a coincidence, Officer ZUo¡­¡± Yin Xun was also a little embarrassed. Why did Zuo Liang always come when she called the police?


    However, she had not seen him for such a long time. If Zuo Liang had not greeted her just now, she would not have recognized him.


    ¡®What happened here?¡± Zuo Liang looked at Fang Yao and the fat man and asked.


    Fang Yao did not let go of the man even when the police arrived. Fatty¡¯s face was bruised and swollen, and he looked at Fang Yao indignantly.


    ¡°I can only explain the situation after I came here. As for the details of the crime, it¡¯s better for you to go into the house and take a look yourself,¡± Yin Xun said as he pointed at Fatty¡¯s house.


    As the two of them spoke, Fang Yao let go of Fatty. Since the police were here, there was no need for him to hold him down anymore.


    However, he did not expect that even with the police present, Fatty was still not repentant. After being let go, he probably knew that he could not defeat Fang Yao and could not deal with the police. He rushed toward Yin Xun with a ferocious expression, as if he wanted to kill her.


    Fang Yao¡¯s gaze was fixed on Yin Xun the whole time. He noticed Fatty¡¯s actions immediately.


    Yin Xun was standing very close to him. Just as Fatty was about to reach Yin


    Xun, Fang Yao rushed forward and grabbed Fatty before knocking him down.


    ¡°Police, this person attacked someone. Don¡¯t you care?¡± The fatty was pinned to the ground by Fang Yao as he shouted at the police.


    Zuo Liang looked at Fatty coldly, then walked to Fang Yao¡¯s side and said, ¡°Hand him over to me.¡± After that, he said to Fatty, ¡®We¡¯re not blind. We saw what you did just now; you tried to assault someone. How dare you try that with the police around?¡¯


    While they were talking, the other police officers had already entered the house to check inside.


    Shortly later, the police officers inside reported to Zuo Liang that there was a girl who was imprisoned and injured. She was covered in injuries and they needed to call for treatment.


    Fatty still tried to resist, but he was suppressed by Officer Zuo Liang.


    At this point, he was still trying to shift his gaze to Fang Yao and Yin Xun.


    ¡°They¡¯re gangsters. They beat me up! Officer, I admit what I did, but what about them? Shouldn¡¯t they be arrested too?¡¯ The fatty pointed at Yin Xun and Fang Yao and shouted.


    ¡°Behave yourself!¡± Zuo Liang, who was pressing down on him, frowned and warned him. At the same time, he handcuffed the man.


    ¡°If you don¡¯t believe me, you can take a look at my injuries. Look, my face is swollen!¡± Fatty continued to complain..

    Facing the police officer¡¯s gaze, Yin Xun smiled and explained, ¡°He tried to pull me into the house too. Fortunately, my friend came and we argued with the man. However, we didn¡¯t hit anyone. When we were arguing, we heard a commotion in the house. He didn¡¯t close his door, so I took a look and saw the girl.¡±


    ¡®Where¡¯s the customer service that you promised from Xintao? Where¡¯s the treatment that you promised? You¡¯re all liars. B*tch, I¡¯ll kill you¡­¡± Seeing that Yin Xun refused to admit it, the fatty shouted angrily and even cursed the police.


    ¡®You said that I hit you. Do you have any evidence?¡± Yin Xun asked the fatty calmly.


    Fatty shouted, ¡°No wonder you asked me if I have surveillance cameras. It¡¯s because you don¡¯t want to leave any evidence!¡±


    ¡°If you continue cursing and not repenting, I¡¯ll consider you obstructing official business!¡± Zuo Liang warned him.


    The ambulance arrived very quickly. The girl was taken away by the ambulance. Fatty was held down, and Fang Yao and Yin Xun were brought back to the police station to take statements.


    Because of this, Yin Xun could not continue to deliver the packages. If she was still the one doing it, the deliveries would definitely be late.


    This moment showed how useful Xintao¡¯s software was. Apart from adding friends, it also had the ability to make contact groups. Yin Xun went to the group chat of Xintao Express and told Wen Yan about his situation. Wen Yan immediately sent his employees out to take over the deliveries.


    Yin Xun, ¡°The employee who helps me today counts as him working overtime for the day. I¡¯ll pay him three times the usual amount for my parcels. ¡®


    The crime scene was sealed off. The police did not know who the girl was. No matter how they asked the fatty, he did not say anything. They could only slowly investigate.


    This matter was very serious. This girl had been imprisoned. Moreover, before Yin Xun and Fang Yao left the police station, Zuo Liang told her that Fatty¡¯s condition did not seem right either. He was either mentally ill or on drugs.


    ¡°Officer Zuo, I didn¡¯t expect us to be so bound by fate. Why don¡¯t we have a cup of coffee together one day when you ¡®re free?¡± Yin Xun said to Zuo Liang before leaving.


    Fang Yao did not expect Yin Xun to take the initiative to invite someone else. He immediately frowned and looked at Zuo Liang. Zuo Liang looked only a little older than Yin Xun. He had a proper appearance. Although he was not that handsome, he looked refreshing and comfortable.


    Fang Yao had a bad feeling. Yin Xun had never taken the initiative to invite him out.


    ¡°I¡¯d like that.¡±


    Yin Xun thought that Zuo Liang would refuse, but she did not expect him to agree so readily.


    When the two of them came out of the police station, it was already evening.


    The sky was dim. When they reached the entrance of the police station, Yin Xun sighed. ¡°l didn¡¯t expect so many things to happen today. I have to say, there are many unpredictable accidents in a job like this.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡®The biggest drawback of delivering goods is that we don¡¯t know what customers we¡¯ll meet. However, it¡¯s fine if your company¡¯s couriers are all men. No matter what happens, men will at least have the strength to fight. It¡¯s relatively safe for them. But if it¡¯s a woman¡­ Just like today, if you were alone, it¡¯ll be dangerous.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s safer for men who are stronger, but I don¡¯t want to restrict girls from applying for jobs because of this.¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and said firmly, ¡°This is only the beginning. When society enters the In ternet era in the future, physical shops will definitely come under threat. Everyone will want to shop online. When all kinds of appliances and fruits and vegetables are bought from shopping websites, Xintao Express will definitely be the hottest and most profitable company in the express delivery industry.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words were very reasonable. Fang Yao nodded. He could imagine that day.


    With the development of express delivery, who would still be willing to go out and buy things? Unless they had nothing else to do and liked shopping.


    Yin Xun continued, ¡°It¡¯s a profitable industry. When the time comes, both men and women will want to take part in it. However, if they lose the opportunity to earn money because of unnecessary factors, they will feel it is too unfair. Therefore, I plan to find a digital map company to work with and incorporate a navigation positioning system. This way, we can know where the employees are at any time and whether they are safe.¡±


    ¡°In addition, another benefit of working with digital maps is that you will never get lost. For couriers, academic qualifications aren¡¯t important. As long as their character and business ability are passable, anyone can apply no matter how old they are. Things are a bit more tricky with the employees. Not everyone can read paper maps. However, as long as they can have a voiced navigation system, it will garner twice the results with half the effort..¡±

    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun with a burning gaze. Although it was evening, he still felt that Yin Xun was glowing.


    ¡°Of course, the development of this navigation system is not only for couriers. Once it¡¯s mature and effective, we can push it outward. At that time, anyone can use it. To those people who have no sense of direction, a voiced navigation system is their savior , ¡± Yin Xun added.


    She felt very strongly about this. Back then, she went to the big city alone to work. When she first arrived, she did not know the way around and could not always ask passersby. She relied a lot on the voice map.


    Not only was it convenient, but it also had the function to hail a taxi if needed.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun continued, ¡°By the way, after the navigation research and development is completed, we can also add a taxi function. Usually, ifyou need a taxi but are not familiar with the road, you won¡¯t be able to the way even if you take a long detour. The taxi drivers might also ask for a high price. If the digital map can be used in conjunction with the taxi, the driver can just follow the navigation and use the Xintao app for payment. In addition, there¡¯s real-time surveillance on the Internet. That will greatly increase the trust and safety of customers.¡±


    Fang Yao listened quietly as Yin Xun rambled on about her ideas. In the beginning, he was just somewhat impressed and thought that Yin Xun had a lot of ideas. Now, he was completely shocked.


    He knew that Yin Xun was capable and smart. She could always think of some wild ideas. Most importantly, these ideas were very feasible. However, when she met that fat man, it ended up with her thinking of a new business.


    Xintao, Xintao Express, and Rhythm Video. Now, with the addition of the navigation and taxi system, these seemingly unrelated businesses complemented each other.


    If these projects were successful, the benefits in the future would be very considerable. Fang Yao no longer had any doubts about Yin Xun¡¯s ability. He believed that Yin Xun would definitely succeed in the end.


    However, before they reached that point, he had to remind Yin Xun that anything she tried will have its risks.


    He asked, ¡°You¡¯ve pulled in so many investments and started so many businesses at the same time. If you fail, it will be a devastating blow. Aren¡¯t you afraid?¡±


    ¡°Nothing can guarantee 100% success. As long as you do it, you have a chance to win. However, if you¡¯re afraid of failure and don¡¯t dare to try, you won¡¯t have any chance at all. Besides, there will always be someone who eats the crab first. No one dares to be the first. How will they know if the crab is delicious in the end?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao confidently with a smile on her face. Her big and bright eyes curved into crescents.


    These things were concepts that have already matured in Yin Xun¡¯s original world. Since this world was developing, it was Yin Xun¡¯s chance. She believed that she would definitely succeed. After all, all the methods were ready-made.


    Fang Yao¡¯s heart skipped a beat under Yin Xun¡¯s gaze.


    ¡°I know what you¡¯re worried about. Don¡¯t worry. As long as I¡¯m still alive in this world, I¡¯ll definitely return what belongs to you. If I somehow go bankrupt, I¡¯ll just marry you¡­¡± Yin Xun stuck out her tongue and made a face. It was rare for her to show such a lively expression.


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun looked at each other. Fang Yao felt his heart beat faster, and his face was slightly hot. He thought that as long as Yin Xun agreed that she would marry him, he would confess and tell Yin Xun his feelings. It had been so long, and he had many concerns, but if Yin Xun took the first step, then he did not have to worry so much.


    ¡°I¡¯ll be your assistant. You know that I have a lot of ideas. I¡¯ll definitely be of help to your company. My latent value is very great. I definitely won¡¯t let you suffer a loss.¡± Yin Xun looked up at Fang Yao, looking very smug.


    Fang Yao,


    As expected of Yin Xun. She could always pour cold water on him when he felt most emotional.


    Just now, the atmosphere was already tense. He was about to confess, but Yin Xun knocked him back with her blunt sentence.


    At this moment, Fang Yao was a little conflicted. Should he say it?


    Fang Yao, who had always done things his own way, had now become timid. He let out a long sigh in his heart. Now, he understood how it felt to worry about personal gains and losses.


    He was afraid that if he said it out loud and Yin Xun had no interest in him, she would hold a grudge against him in the future.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry and do it boldly. After all, the Fang family will back you up.¡± Fang Yao said, ¡°As for that contract, just treat it as the Fang family¡¯s investment in you. Just ignore those conditions they set for you.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°It¡¯s alright. That condition doesn¡¯t mean anything in the first place. It doesn¡¯t affect me at all.¡±


    Fang Yao ,


    At this moment, he did not know if it was justified to be angry, but he was certainly very unhappy..

 Chapter 329 - Chapter 329: Go Through Thick And Thin Together

    Chapter 329: Go Through Thick And Thin Together


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun did not know what he was thinking. She said cheerfully, ¡°Fang Yao, I¡¯m super lucky to know you. You¡¯re a good person. I¡¯ll make sure to repay you in the future. I won¡¯t let you suffer a loss! I promise.¡±


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and said half-seriously and half-jokingly, ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about the future. The future is so far away. Who knows when it will be achieved? How do you plan to repay my help right now?¡±


    ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Yin Xun lowered her head and pondered for a moment. Then, she looked up and said seriously, ¡°How about I give you a gift? You¡¯ll definitely like


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Fang Yao remembered that Yin Xun had given him either green plants or green birds. Even the furniture she had given him was green. She said that she wanted to create a comfortable environment for him.


    Now that his house was almost a botanical garden, it would take a long time just to water the plants every day. Fang Yao really did not have high expectations for the gift Yin Xun was going to give him.


    ¡®You¡¯re too polite. We¡¯re friends. It¡¯s fine as long as you¡¯re happy.¡± Yin Xun thought that Fang Yao was sincerely thanking her.


    Fang Yao did not want to talk anymore.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go,¡± Fang Yao said unhappily.


    ¡°Are you going back to the company?¡¯ Yin Xun asked Fang Yao.


    ¡°No, it¡¯s already time to get offwork. I¡¯ll go straight home.¡±


    Yin Xun pointed at the three-wheeled motorcycle not far away and said, ¡°Before we came to the police station, I asked Officer Zuo to help me send that motorcycle over so that he won¡¯t have to drive us back. Anyway, you don¡¯t have a car now. Why don¡¯t we take my vehicle and go back together?¡±


    ¡°Are you planning to drive this back?¡± Fang Yao asked in surprise.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°1 have no choice. I plan to work like a normal employee for three to four days to immerse myself in the feeling of being a courier so I can strive to improve on all the problems. Because the warehouse is in the suburbs, not everyone has a car, and the transportation is not convenient. The company stipulates that each employee will have a vehicle and drive it home every day. In order to prevent chaos, everyone has to take care of their vehicle and not dump it at the company.¡±


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s three-wheeled motorcycle, Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched. This rule seemed reasonable, but it did not seem very practical either.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. We¡¯re wearing masks anyway. No one will recognize us if we drive back quietly. They¡¯ll only treat us as couriers. As long as we¡¯re nice, it won¡¯t be a problem.¡± Yin Xun saw Fang Yao¡¯s unnatural expression and comforted him.


    However, although Yin Xun looked calm now, she would regret her decision when she returned.


    It was fine when she was driving in the city. Because there were express deliveries everywhere, everyone was used to the sight and no one paid attention to Yin Xun. However, when Yin Xun drove the car to the villa area, everyone who passed by was staring at her.


    That was because there had never been any express delivery in this area. Nowadays, online shopping was still not mature. The really fancy luxury brands had yet to enter the online website because they felt that it was degrading to do so. They only sold their goods in specialty shops and at the counters of large shopping malls. Therefore, these rich ladies almost never bought things online. If people in the circle saw them, they would feel that they were degrading themselves.


    Yin Xun thought that it was a good thing that she was wearing a mask and no one recognized her.


    However, Yin Xun underestimated everyone¡¯s curiosity about the three-wheeled motorcycle.


    ¡®Why do I feel that the two people in the vehicle look a little familiar? Doesn¡¯t that man look like President Fang? He¡¯s wearing a mask. I don¡¯t dare to greet him.¡¯


    ¡°I think you¡¯re right. The person driving the vehicle is President Yin, isn¡¯t it? Usually, those two are always inseparable. But why would they drive a small three-wheeled motorcycle? Could it be that this is a new fashion? I must be getting old. I don¡¯t understand young people¡¯s preferences anymore.¡±


    They attracted a lot of attention along the way. When they were about to reach the entrance of their residential area, Fang Yao calmly said to Yin Xun, ¡°Just drop me off here.


    Yin Xun asked him in surprise, ¡°Why? Are you embarrassed?¡±


    Fang Yao did not hide the fact that he felt awkward. ¡°1 know a lot of people. I¡¯d better go down and walk by myself. I¡¯ll look for you when I get home.¡±


    ¡°No!¡± Yin Xun refused. ¡°I¡¯ve pulled you all the way, and now you want to abandon me and escape on your own. Don¡¯t forget that we¡¯re comrades. We have to go through thick and thin together.¡±


    In order to stop Fang Yao from getting out of the vehicle, Yin Xun sped up..

 Chapter 330 - Chapter 330: Lets Go Together In The Future

    Chapter 330: Let¡¯s Go Together In The Future

    If Fang Yao got out of the vehicle now, she would be the one who would lose face.


    Besides, Fang Yao lived here longer than her, so everyone was more familiar with him. Perhaps everyone would be too busy paying attention to him to pay any attention to her.


    When they arrived at the entrance of the district, Yin Xun drove in habitually. However, before she could enter, she was stopped by the security guards.


    ¡°Outside vehicles are prohibited¡­ Eh, it¡¯s President Yin and President Fang. Both of you are back. Did you change vehicles?¡± The security guard came out of the security booth and was about to stop Yin Xun from going in. When he saw the people sitting on the bike, he immediately greeted them in surprise.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s convenient to drive a smaller vehicle, and it¡¯s also environmentally friendly,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°Oh right, we¡¯re wearing masks. How did you recognize us at a glance?¡±


    The security guard was speechless as he said, ¡°President Yin, you come and go from here every day, and you look very familiar. Moreover, you are only wearing a mask. How could I not recognize you?¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    She thought that she had at least disguised herself a little, but it turned out that it was useless.


    Fang Yao did not say a word throughout the entire conversation. He lowered his head slightly and placed his hand on his forehead in an attempt to reduce his presence.


    In the end, Yin Xun drove the bike into their neighborhood. She originally wanted to drive to the side and try not to attract attention. Suddenly, she heard someone honking from behind. She thought that she was driving too slowly and blocked the road, so she moved to the side.


    Unexpectedly, the car behind them honked again. Yin Xun was instantly speechless. The road in the neighborhood was so wide that it was not a problem to drive three cars through it at the same time. Why was that person persistently honking?


    Yin Xun was about to turn around to see what kind of car it was, but before she could, the car behind caught up to her. It was a sports car.


    The car window was rolled down, revealing Liu Ying¡¯s smiling face.


    ¡°Yin Xun, you Ve changed your tastes. You don¡¯t have four-wheelers now, but you¡¯ve changed it to a three-wheeler. You¡¯re really quite eye-catching.¡± Although she said nice words, her eyes were filled with mockery.


    Yin Xun originally felt quite awkward, but after hearing her words, he instantly became calmer.


    She looked at Liu Ying and smiled. ¡°Alright, since you think our car looks cool,


    I¡¯ll give you one another day. You¡¯re welcome.¡±


    Liu Ying, ¡°¡­l was just joking. There¡¯s no need.¡±


    Afraid that Yin Xun would really give her a tricycle, Liu Ying wanted to stop talking to Yin Xun. Just as she was about to roll up the window, she suddenly saw Fang Yao sitting beside Yin Xun.


    She was instantly interested and greeted him happily, ¡°Hello, Young Master Fang. I didn¡¯t expect you to be here too. Your hobbies are really unique.¡± After thinking for a while, she suddenly asked, ¡°Are the two of you on a date? How romantic.¡± YinXun, ¡±


    Why had she never realized before that Liu Ying¡¯s mouth could be so sharp? It seemed like Yin Xun had to bring Liu Ying to experience it next time. After all, Liu Ying was also an investor. Although she was an investor for Rhythm Video, Xintao and Rhythm Video were one family after all. They had to interact more in the future.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun suddenly looked at Liu Ying with a smile.


    After being with Yin Xun for the past few days, Liu Ying already knew Yin Xun¡¯s temperament. The moment she showed such an expression, it meant that something nasty was going to happen.


    Liu Ying felt that something was amiss and decided to leave quickly. She closed the car window and stepped on the accelerator. The entire set of actions was as smooth as flowing water. Yin Xun did not even have the time to say anything.


    ¡°I haven¡¯t even said anything. Why did she run away?¡± Yin Xun asked Fang Yao doubtfully.


    Fang Yao glanced at Liu Ying¡¯s taillights and said, ¡°She probably doesn¡¯t want to drive your three-wheeled bike.¡±


    He could roughly guess Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts just now.


    ¡°Hey, that doesn¡¯t make sense. Hasn¡¯t she been pursuing you? Why didn¡¯t she show any reaction when she saw you just now?¡± Only then did Yin Xun remember that Liu Ying had come to this neighborhood to buy a house specifically to chase after Fang Yao. Back then, she had thought that Yin Xun was her love rival and had even released rats on her.


    Why was there no reaction at all when she saw the two of them together this time?


    ¡®You seem to be very concerned about this matter. Why is that?¡± Fang Yao asked with a slight frown.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Of course. She¡¯s my investor. I¡¯ve always cared about my investors.¡±


    Fang Yao did not share Yin Xun¡¯s concern at all. He only felt that he was being treated like a money jar.


    The two of them were really a little eye-catching. Everyone who passed by wanted to look and even pointed and talked about them openly.


    Yin Xun thought privately that it was fortunate that Fang Yao was with her, so things would not be so awkward. Thinking about how she was going to be driving back like this for the next few days, she decided to drag Fang Yao down with her.


    ¡°In any case, I have to work at the warehouse for the next few days. It¡¯s close to your company. Why don¡¯t I pick you up every day? You can save on the fuel bill,¡± Yin Xun said to Fang Yao..

 Chapter 331 - Chapter 331: I Won t Blame Her

    Chapter 331: I Won ¡®t Blame Her


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and smiled. ¡°Thank you, but I refuse.¡±


    ¡°You¡­ ¡± Yin Xun was about to persuade Fang Yao when her phone suddenly rang.


    She grabbed the handlebars with one hand and pulled out her phone with the other. It was Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin would never call her for no reason. Something must have happened. She had no choice but to park the bike on the side and take out her phone to answer the call.


    ¡°President Yin, no one went to your office today. Oh right, other than Mary; she came over to ask if you were there. I told her that you went out, and she only waited at the door for a while before she left. I was at the side the entire time, and nothing happened.¡± Although Mi Jin did not know what Yin Xun meant by this, since she had given the order, he would definitely follow it.


    Now that it was time to get off work, he felt that he should report his work.


    ¡°Alright, I got it.¡± Yin Xun lowered her eyes. As expected, Mary was indeed planning to make a move.


    ¡°But¡­¡± She heard Mi Jin continue, ¡°Assistant Mary¡¯s expression was not very good. She might have something very important to look for you. I asked her to give you a call, and she looked very flustered. President Yin, why don¡¯t you ask her personally later? I keep feeling that something is not right with her.¡±


    ¡°Alright, by the way, I¡¯ll be at the delivery warehouse for the next few days. I won¡¯t go to the company for now. From tomorrow onward, you don¡¯t have to keep an eye on my office. No matter who goes, just pretend that you didn¡¯t see them,¡± Yin Xun said in a deep voice.


    ¡°You really intend to experience it personally? I heard them say that it is very tiring to deliver packages, which is why we don¡¯t have any female employees in that sector. President Yin, if you just want to understand, can¡¯t you just let them report it to you?¡±


    ¡®We¡¯re the pioneers. There will definitely be many problems in the beginning. I¡¯ll be more at ease if I settle these problems myself.¡± After speaking to Mi Jin, Yin Xun hung up.


    ¡°Is there something wrong with Mary?¡± Fang Yao asked Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun did not deliberately hide her call just now. Coupled with the fact that Fang Yao was sitting beside her, he heard everything.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. I suspect that she was threatened by Si Fan, but I¡¯m not very sure. She¡¯s not in the right state and didn¡¯t say anything to me. If she was really threatened by Si Fan, it must be for the company¡¯s information or the official seal in my office. Coincidentally, I¡¯m going to deliver packages in the next few days and I won¡¯t be in the company. I¡¯ll give her this chance.¡± Yin Xun turned the key and exerted a little force with her right hand. The bike continued on its way.


    ¡°It¡¯s pointless to just steal official seals unless it contains confidential internal information. If a big company wants to sign an agreement, they have to go through layers of approval and stamp all kinds of official seals together to have legal effect,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s right, but Si Fan doesn¡¯t seem to understand. He thinks that he just needs to get our information and the official seal. It was the same last time. He asked Yin MO to steal the information from the company, but in the end, he only learned about the project that was originally planned to be given to him anyway. That collaboration was successful. He probably felt that his plan worked, so he used the same trick again.¡±


    When Yin MO stole the information, Yin Xun deliberately ignored it. As long as she wanted to, she could make Si Fan pay the price in no time.


    Using a useless project to discover Si Fan¡¯s plans without alerting the enemy was a good deal.


    This was a trap she had set for Si Fan and Yin Mo. She wanted to see what these two people¡¯s legal views were like.


    From the looks of it, Si Fan¡¯s success in the original work was really all thanks to the protagonist¡¯s halo. He was really a lawless person who knew little about business.


    ¡°However, although it won¡¯t affect the company, she¡¯s still your trusted assistant. If she really did such a thing, what will you do?¡¯ Business owners feared two-faced business partners. If the person she trusted betrayed her once, no matter how she made up for it in the future, there would be a rift between the two of them.


    ¡°I won¡¯t blame her because she was forced into it.¡± The hair on Yin Xun¡¯s forehead was a little messy from the wind. She raised her hand to tidy it up and said calmly, ¡°However, I won¡¯t keep an employee who can betray me. No matter what her reasons are, I will probably just give her a settlement amount and fire her.¡±


    She had already given Mary a chance. As long as Mary could confide her in the situation, she would definitely cooperate with Mary to get her brother out.


    She deliberately said those words in the coffee shop because Mary might be monitored when she was outside. Yin Xun wanted to let those people think that she had no idea what Mary had encountered and was deliberately making things difficult for Mary. However , Mary could find an opportunity to confess it herself. It was understandable if she refused to say anything, but she would not be forgiven if she did something out of line.


    However, even if Mary did not say anything, Yin Xun would take the initiative to help her solve the problem. It was just somewhat troublesome.


    Fang Yao looked deeply at Yin Xun and did not say anything else..

    Amidst the discussions along the way, the two of them finally arrived home.


    When they passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, Yin Xun dropped him off. Coincidentally, the butler came out at that moment.


    The butler¡¯s face was filled with surprise as he looked back and forth between Yin Xun, Fang Yao, and the three-wheeled motorcycle.


    ¡°Miss Yin Xun, did you change your car?¡± The butler¡¯s mouth twitched as he asked.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right.¡±


    The butler gave her a thumbs-up. ¡°It¡¯s a nice ride. Very distinctive.¡±


    YinXun, ¡±


    If the butler managed to hold back his laughter, she could still reluctantly believe this praise.


    ¡°I still have a lot of these vehicles in my company. Do you want one? Why don¡¯t I give you one too? It¡¯s just nice to use as a bike like this. It¡¯s convenient to get groceries. Yin Xun pointed at her three-wheeled motorcycle and asked the butler.


    ¡°Thank you for Miss Yin¡¯s good intentions, but I usually walk to the supermarket at the entrance to buy groceries. I am getting old now, and I should walk around more. I will treat it as training. As for those heavy items, I am not in charge of them. The other servants will prepare them in advance.¡± The butler smiled as he rejected her politely.


    ¡°It¡¯s not easy to walk on a rainy day. It¡¯s more convenient to have a small scooter. Moreover, this is very light and easy to drive. It¡¯s also energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. It¡¯s very suitable for you,¡± Yin Xun continued to persuade him.


    She could not be the only one driving this bike. She decided that she would give one to anyone who praised her vehicle. If everyone in the neighborhood got one, there would be nothing to be embarrassed about.


    The butler still refused. ¡°I won¡¯t go out on a rainy day. You should keep these for yourself. You¡¯ll be the only one in the entire district. How stylish. ¡® At this moment, the butler could not hold back the smile on his face.


    ¡°Hmph, I knew you were just lying to me.¡± Yin Xun looked at the butler resentfully and puffed up her face slightly.


    Seeing Yin Xun like this, the butler smiled and pointed at Fang Yao. ¡°You can give it to our young master. From now on, you¡¯ll be the two heroes of tricycles.


    You¡¯ll be the most eye-catching duo in the neighborhood.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no need for that.¡± Fang Yao immediately refused.


    Yin Xun¡¯s face was full of regret.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, Miss Yin. Today, we are preparing roasted meat. The meat is fresh and tender. Once it is roasted over the fire, we will sizzle it with oil. Then, we will sprinkle some seasoning onto it. It will be very fragrant. Don ¡®t you like this kind of food? Before our Young Master came back, he specifically said that he would allow you to eat more today because you have been tired for the entire day.¡±


    Listening to the butler¡¯s descriptions, Yin Xun licked her lips. She even heard her stomach growl twice.


    That afternoon, she had only eaten a few bites of a sandwich before going to the warehouse to work. She had not even drunk more than a few mouthfuls of water until now and was indeed very hungry.


    Fang Yao secretly gave the butler a thumbs-up behind his back


    Seeing this, the butler pressed on. ¡°You haven¡¯t been coming to our house to eat recently. Our young master doesn¡¯t have anyone to accompany him. He can¡¯t even eat much as his appetite has decreased greatly. You know that his injuries haven¡¯t recovered yet. If his nutrition can¡¯t keep up, I don¡¯t know when he will recover. He¡¯s too lonely¡­¡±


    Seeing that the butler¡¯s words were getting more and more ridiculous, Fang Yao touched his forehead helplessly and quickly stopped him. ¡°Butler, go and check how the food is coming along.¡±


    ¡°The servants will inform you when the meal is ready, Young Master.¡± The butler looked at Fang Yao in confusion.


    Fang Yao said calmly, ¡°I know. Go take a look anyway.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡± Before he left, the butler took a deep look at Yin Xun and said, ¡®Miss Yin, you must come over. Our Young Master needs you.


    The two of them watched helplessly as the butler left.


    ¡°Do you want to come over and eat with us?¡± Fang Yao pretended to be natural and asked.


    Yin Xun thought about it. Although the food at Fang Yao¡¯s house was very tempting, Liu Ying¡¯s cooking was not bad either.


    She had already troubled Fang Yao enough. If she continued to eat at his place without bringing gifts, it would be too impolite. What if she became an annoyance after a long time?


    Fang Yao and the butler were so polite because they were neighbors. She should know how to be considerate.


    ¡°No, Liu Ying must be cooking at home now. I¡¯ll just go home and eat.¡± Yin Xun declined the invitation.


    Yin Xun talked about Liu Ying very intimately, it was as if they were family. ¡®Going home¡¯ meant that Yin Xun already treated Liu Ying as family, so the words came out very naturally.


    Fang Yao suddenly felt a little sour in his heart. He had been with Yin Xun for so long, but Yin Xun did not treat him like that. On the other hand, Liu Ying had only been with Yin Xun for a few days, and they were almost family. How was he inferior to Liu Ying?


    His eyes darkened as an idea gradually surfaced in his mind.


    ¡°Do you mind if I have a free meal?¡± Fang Yao asked Yin Xun.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun was stunned. ¡°Are you saying that you¡¯re going to my house to eat?n


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°Coincidentally, my house prepared some roasted meat. I¡¯ll get someone to send it over when it¡¯s done. You don¡¯t have to worry that Liu Ying won ¡®t cook enough.. ¡°

 Chapter 333 - Chapter 333: Have Manners

    Chapter 333: Have Manners

    Since he had already said this, Yin Xun had no reason to disagree. Moreover, Liu Ying would definitely be very happy to see Fang Yao.


    As long as she could make her two investors happy, wouldn¡¯t that make her investments better?


    At the thought of money, a smile slowly appeared on Yin Xun¡¯s lips. She stared at Fang Yao with a burning gaze and said, ¡°Sure, we can go together now.¡± Looking into her eyes, Fang Yao felt an indescribable and strange feeling.


    After Fang Yao informed the butler, he went to Yin Xun¡¯s house with her.


    When they entered the courtyard, just as Yin Xun had said, Liu Ying had already come over to cook. At this moment, her sports car was parked in the courtyard. Tan Ai was standing at the entrance of the villa, as if she was enjoying the breeze.


    Yin Xun asked Tan Ai in confusion, ¡°Why are you outside?¡±


    Tan Ai looked into the room and said lightly, ¡°It¡¯s life-threatening inside.¡±


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao looked at each other. They did not know what Tan Ai meant. She had always been the quiet type. Even if she was asked questions, she would only answer with a few words at most. It would be great if they could be more friendly.


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao entered the house together. As soon as they reached the door, the two of them choked and coughed.


    ¡°Has the kitchen exploded? Cough, cough, cough¡­¡± Yin Xun coughed and asked Tan Ai.


    Tan Ai, who was a few meters away from the door, shrugged and said, ¡°Miss Liu Ying is just doing research.¡±


    ¡°Research?¡± Yin Xun did not understand, so she decided to go in and take a look.


    They had no idea what was going on inside, but a spicy smell instantly drilled into their throats and eyes. The two of them had just walked into the house when they choked and coughed some more.


    Fang Yao had it worse. He could not stand spicy food, to begin with. He felt even worse now.


    Yin Xun wanted to tell him to wait outside first, but the moment she opened her mouth, she coughed. She had no choice but to give up. She endured the uncomfortable feeling and went to the hall, only to find that smoke was coming from the kitchen.


    She rushed into the kitchen and realized that Liu Ying was cooking something. She was wearing a mask and a hat. She even seemed to be fully armed, like a robber.


    Yin Xun walked over to see what Liu Ying was doing. She was actually stir-frying chili !


    ¡°I¡¯m making a new dish. Wait for a bit. If the sensation is irritating, go outside and wait. It¡¯ll be fine once it¡¯s done.¡± Liu Ying pushed Yin Xun out of the kitchen.


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao stood outside with Tan Ai. After waiting for about ten minutes, the smoke in the room finally receded; Liu Ying seemed to be done.


    When it was time to eat, Yin Xun finally found out what she made. They were having hotpot tonight, and Liu Ying was making her own chili sauce.


    Although Yin Xun and Liu Ying did not get along in the past, they both liked to eat spicy food. Therefore, this time, whether it was the hotpot or the ingredients, she used the spiciest chili.


    Seeing the two of them chatting and laughing as they ate, Fang Yao only ate a few mouthfuls of vegetables and then stopped eating.


    Liu Ying¡¯s attention was actually on Fang Yao the whole time. When she saw that Fang Yao did not eat, she said to Yin Xun, ¡°Yin Xun, why didn¡¯t you tell me that Young Master Fang was coming? If I had known that he was coming, I wouldn¡¯t have made hotpot.¡± After saying that, she said to Fang Yao, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Young Master Fang. I don¡¯t think you like hotpot very much. Why don¡¯t you go back first this time? I¡¯ll make something else the next time you visit.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Liu Ying in surprise. Liu Ying actually asked Fang Yao to go back. This was not what she had expected.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. I can eat anything.¡±


    As soon as Fang Yao finished speaking, Yin Xun¡¯s doorbell rang. Yin Xun quickly went to open the door. As expected, it was the butler. At this moment, he was holding a sealed box, and the faint fragrance of roasted meat wafted out.


    ¡°Miss Yin, our Young Master¡¯s roasted meat is ready. You guys can eat it together.¡± The butler handed the roasted meat to Yin Xun and was about to leave.


    Yin Xun invited him to join them, but the butler refused.


    After the butler left, Yin Xun returned with the roasted meat and sat back on the chair. She looked at Fang Yao and Liu Ying and felt that there was something wrong with their gazes.


    ¡°Young Master Fang, you¡¯re being so polite. You came over to eat, but you still didn¡¯t forget to bring some food,¡± Liu Ying said with a smile.


    Fang Yao glanced at her indifferently and said, ¡°I just have basic manners.¡±


    Why did it sound like he was mocking her for eating and drinking for free?


    Liu Ying continued to ask, ¡°Then what does Young Master Fang think of my culinary skills? I heard from Yin Xun that before I came, she had to go to your house to eat every day, but there¡¯s no need for that now. Now that I¡¯m cooking, she doesn¡¯t have to worry about meals..¡±

 Chapter 334 - Chapter 334: You Like Yin Xun, Don t You

    Chapter 334: You Like Yin Xun, Don ¡®t You


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Liu Ying lowered her head slightly and said in embarrassment, ¡°But hotpot can¡¯t showcase my skills. Now that I know that you can¡¯t take spicy food, you can rest assured. I¡¯ll know what to cook for you next time, so Yin Xun can bring you over next time.¡±


    ¡°Can I come over again?¡± Fang Yao asked Yin Xun.


    ¡°Of course,¡± Yin Xun replied.


    Yin Xun thought to herself, ¡®As expected, these two look to be in a good mood.¡¯


    Liu Ying and Fang Yao chatted for a while more. However, Yin Xun felt that there was something wrong between the two of them. What exactly was wrong? She thought about it carefully but could not figure it out.


    After dinner, the three of them tidied up the table and took a break. Fang Yao wanted Yin Xun to start training.


    ¡°Ah, I¡¯ve been delivering packages for half a day today. Do I still need to train?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s face was filled with worry.


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°Your physical strength has been trained, but you still have to revise your combat skills. No matter how tired you are every day, you have to revise them. They can save your life at critical moments.¡±


    Initially, when Fang Yao saw Yin Xun personally running around to deliver packages, he did not want her to train today. He even wanted to stop for a few days first. However, that changed when they met the fat man.


    This proved that even if it had nothing to do with Si Fan, other accidents could happen in her life. It was impossible for Fang Yao to be by Yin Xun¡¯s side at all times. It was better to let her have the skills to protect herself.


    Faced with Fang Yao¡¯s forceful request, Yin Xun could not refuse. She could only ask Tan Ai to go to the gym in the basement together with her.


    After she started training with Fang Yao, Fang Yao hired some people to renovate her gym. He bought a lot of equipment, but they were usually just decorations.


    If not for Fang Yao¡¯s urging, she would never have touched these things.


    Recently, Fang Yao was injured and could not spar with her, so he asked the two bodyguards to practice fighting techniques with Yin Xun.


    In the past, she thought that Fang Yao was merciless and would beat her up until her entire body hurt. However, after sparring with the bodyguards, she realized how easy Fang Yao was on her.


    It was probably because the bodyguards understood the need to protect her.


    Every time they sparred with Yin Xun, they would not hold back. Every time, Yin Xun would be pummeled until she collapsed to the ground.


    It was not that the bodyguards did it on purpose; they simply forgot to control their strength. Every time they knocked Yin Xun down, they would apologize to her repeatedly.


    Therefore, Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao¡¯s injured shoulder and lamented in her heart. Was this her karma?


    Liu Ying usually left after dinner, but this time, since Fang Yao was also there, she stayed behind and went to the basement with Fang Yao and the others.


    When Yin Xun and Tan Ai started to spar, Liu Ying moved to Fang Yao¡¯s side and poked him with her hand.


    Fang Yao gave her a sidelong glance to ask her what was going on.


    Liu Ying pretended to be mysterious and gestured for Fang Yao to stand a little further away from her. Fang Yao could not help but be puzzled when he saw how strangely she was.


    Slap!


    Yin Xun was thrown over Tan Ai¡¯s shoulder. Fortunately, when they were renovating, Fang Yao got someone to put a layer of foam and carpet on the ground. This way, Yin Xun would not be in pain when she fell, and they would not have to hold back when sparring.


    ¡°Thank you for this.¡± This was the gratitude that Yin Xun expressed to Fang Yao after she heard Fang Yao¡¯s explanation.


    Thinking back to Yin Xun¡¯s angry expression back then, Fang Yao smiled faintly.


    Fang Yao and Liu Ying walked to the side. Seeing that Yin Xun had been knocked down by Tan Ai, he said in a low voice, ¡°Watch your strength.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Tan Ai replied.


    Liu Ying¡¯s gaze swept across Fang Yao, Yin Xun, and Tan Ai. At first, she looked puzzled, but then she looked enlightened.


    ¡°Young Master Fang, unless I¡¯m mistaken, you like Yin Xun, don¡¯t you?¡± Liu Ying¡¯s tone was less of a question and sounded more like a fact.


    Fang Yao looked at Liu Ying indifferently, then turned his gaze to Yin Xun.


    There was air conditioning in the basement, so it was not hot at all. However, Yin Xun was still sweating a lot because of the match with Tan Ai. Her fair skin was covered in a layer of red because of the sweat.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Fang Yao did not intend to deny it. Instead, he admitted it directly.


    Liu Ying was surprised by Fang Yao¡¯s direct admission.


    She suddenly thought of Si Fan. Someone like Si Fan would not be so honest.


    ¡°You admitted it just like that? Shouldn¡¯t you be evading the question to show your dignity as a domineering CEO?¡±


    Fang Yao looked at Liu Ying as if he was looking at an idiot. ¡°Can¡¯t a domineering CEO say that he likes someone? Besides, who else fits the description of domineering CEO more than Yin Xun?¡±


    Yin Xun only cared about her career and earning money. She did not care about anything else at all. Fang Yao had already hinted about his feelings so obviously, but she could not figure out how he felt about her at all. Sometimes, it was horribly infuriating..

 Chapter 335 - Chapter 335: Chase Me

    Chapter 335: Chase Me


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    However, this was probably the reason why he was attracted to her.


    Liu Ying also looked at Yin Xun and nodded in agreement. ¡®That¡¯s true. In the past, I thought that Yin Xun was the most annoying person in the world, even worse than Yin Mo. Although Yin MO stole my Si Fan¡­ Pfft, he¡¯s not mine, but Yin MO has never hurt me.


    ¡°As for Yin Xun, she actually sent me to prison as soon as I returned to the country. At that time, I hated her to death. Having a criminal record is equivalent to ruining my life. However, later on, I understood that I was the one who made a mistake first¡­¡±


    Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun while she was still talking to Fang Yao. Fang Yao did not interrupt her because what she said was related to Yin Xun. Fang Yao listened quietly from the side.


    ¡°If I hadn¡¯t listened to Si Fan and didn¡¯t run into Uncle Yin with a car or play dirty tricks on the Yin family by giving them materials, Yin Xun wouldn¡¯t have treated me like that. After spending some time with Yin Xun and comparing that to my time with Si Fan, I realized that Yin Xun is a good friend.¡± As she finished speaking, Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun with a smile.


    However, Fang Yao¡¯s focus was on Liu Ying hurting Yin Xun¡¯s family. He looked at Liu Ying coldly and said unhappily, ¡°You hurt her family in the past?¡±


    Liu Ying,


    She quickly waved her hands and said, ¡°Aren¡¯t you focusing on the wrong thing?! I already said that was in the past. I was an idiot in the past. I actually listened to Si Fan and did whatever he asked me to do. But don¡¯t worry, I didn¡¯t succeed. Later, Yin Xun sent me directly to prison.¡±


    ¡°As expected of Yin Xun.¡± Fang Yao sighed.


    Liu Ying, ¡°¡­Can¡¯t you at least pay some attention to me when you praise her?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re now¡­¡±


    ¡°All my assets are with Yin Xun now. Her life is my life, so don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t hurt her, and I will even help her earn money. After all, my future happiness depends on Yin Xun.¡±


    Liu Ying revealed a gloating expression. ¡°But¡­ Yin Xun doesn¡¯t seem to know that you like her, and she doesn¡¯t know her feelings either.¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s words hit Fang Yao where it hurt the most. He looked at Liu Ying coldly.


    He did not expect Liu Ying, who had just moved in for a few days, to be able to tell all this.


    Fang Yao felt that Liu Ying¡¯s attitude toward him was completely different from before. When he first came to this neighborhood, Liu Ying¡¯s attitude toward him could only be described as reverence. It was as if she was trying to please him in every possible way. That feeling was very similar to what he felt with Qu Lu.


    Liu Ying could see the danger in Fang Yao¡¯s eyes. She took two steps to the side and put on a proud expression. ¡°In the past, no one supported me, so I had no choice but to try getting close to you. It¡¯s different now. I have Yin Xun. She can support me, so don¡¯t think you can scare me.¡±


    At this point, Liu Ying smiled and added, ¡°Who knows, you might have to rely on me to pursue Yin Xun in the future. If you provoke me, not only will I refuse to help you, but I will also get in your way, making it even harder for you to woo her!¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s tone was a little agitated, so her last sentence was a little loud, and even Yin Xun heard it.


    She stopped what she was doing and looked at Liu Ying in confusion. ¡°What did you say? Who¡¯s pursuing who?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s Young Master Fang, he¡­¡± Liu Ying was about to say something when she was stopped by Fang Yao¡¯s gaze.


    Faced with Fang Yao¡¯s threatening look, Liu Ying¡¯s words were already on the tip of her tongue, but she forcefully changed them. ¡°Young Master Fang was telling me to run so that he can chase me¡­¡±


    Before she could finish, Liu Ying fell silent, and so did Fang Yao.


    On the other hand, Yin Xun looked at the two of them in disbelief and sighed. ¡°Young people are quite good at playing games.¡±


    Fang Yao wanted to explain, but Yin Xun did not give him the chance. She waved her hand and said, ¡°You guys can play around. The basement is very big.


    If it¡¯s not enough, you can go to the courtyard to run.¡±


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, she continued sparring.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to explain to her?¡± Fang Yao looked at Liu Ying coldly and asked in a deep voice.


    Liu Ying shook her head. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter to me anyway.¡±


    Feeling the strong murderous intent, Liu Ying¡¯s heart raced. She quickly bid farewell to Yin Xun and ran away.


    Fang Yao looked at Liu Ying¡¯s back and thought to himself that he could not let Liu Ying come to Yin Xun¡¯s house for dinner anymore. Yin Xun was dull with her emotions, to begin with. If she was affected by Liu Ying, his future road would be even more difficult.


    Thinking of this, he bid farewell to Yin Xun and planned to go back and think of a solution.


    However, he did not expect that, after he and Liu Ying left, Yin Xun really believed that he and Liu Ying were playing a game of chasing each other.


    She sighed.. ¡°Did they really go out to play?¡±

 Chapter 336 - Chapter 336: I Like Yin Xun

    Chapter 336: I Like Yin Xun


    Translator: EndleggFantasv Translation Editor: EndlesgFantasy Translation


    Bang!


    Yin Xun turned around when she heard the sound and realized that Tan Ai had fallen to the ground. She quickly went to help her up and asked with concern, ¡°Why did you fall? Are you alright?¡±


    The corners of Tan Ai¡¯s mouth twitched. She shook her head and said, ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡±


    After Fang Yao went home, he called the butler over.


    ¡°What was that you mentioned about Liu Ying going to Yin Xun¡¯s house for dinner every day?¡± Fang Yao¡¯s face was serious, and he did not seem to be in a good mood.


    The butler was puzzled. What happened? Why did Fang Yao become like this after a meal? Was he unhappy about eating with Yin Xun?


    Suppressing the doubts in his heart, the butler answered, ¡°Miss Yin said that Miss Liu Ying had a falling out with her family, and she invested all her money into Miss Yin. Now, she does not even have money for food, so she goes to Miss


    Yin¡¯s house to cook her meals.¡±


    Fang Yao thought for a moment and said to the butler, ¡°Go find Liu Ying and help me pass on a message. We¡¯ll discuss a business deal¡­¡±


    As the night deepened, all the street lamps in the neighborhood lit up one after another, and the surroundings were filled with mosquitoes.


    After Yin Xun finished her training with Tan Ai, she took a comfortable bath and did some skincare before taking a glass of milk to the balcony.


    The night was not as hot as the day. The breeze made Yin Xun feel very comfortable, though it would be even better if there were no mosquitoes.


    Perhaps it was because of the bright lighting of the balcony; Yin Xun had only stood there for two minutes when her arm started to itch. She scratched it twice and looked down. There was a huge red bump.


    Yin Xun originally wanted to imitate a scene from those pastoral dramas in television dramas. On a starry night with the moonlight just right, she would sit on the balcony and enjoy the view. Then, she would quietly watch the beautiful night sky. However, she neglected the fact that there were mosquitoes.


    Whoosh¡ª


    Yin Xun was struggling with the mosquito bites when Fang Yao¡¯s window was opened.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± did not want to open the window at first, but when he saw Yin Xun scratching around like a monkey, he could not help but open the window and ask her about it.


    Fang Yao had appeared without warning many times. This time, Yin Xun was not startled. She said calmly, ¡°There are too many mosquitoes. I only came out for a short while, and I already have a few big bites on my body. Seriously, it¡¯s such a great night, but it was ruined by the mosquitoes.¡±


    Her arm was red from the scratching, but that still could not stop the itching.


    Fang Yao was a distance away, so he could not see Yin Xun¡¯s arm clearly. He asked, ¡°Don¡¯t you have any itch medicine at home?¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, I don¡¯t usually get bitten. I don¡¯t know what¡¯s wrong with me today.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s late summer and almost autumn. Mosquitoes are the most active right now. Do you need mosquito repellent? I¡¯ll get the butler to send it to you¡­ Oh right, I forgot. The butler is not at home now. Wait for me. I¡¯ll send it to you.¡± Fang Yao was about to close the window.


    Yin Xun hurriedly stopped him. ¡°No need, no need. I¡¯ll go get it myself. You haven¡¯t recovered yet.¡±


    Hearing that Yin Xun wanted to come over and get it herself, Fang Yao did not argue. He smiled and agreed. ¡°Okay.¡±


    Usually, she and   would see each other from time to time. Yin Xun was not that particular about meeting him. She only changed into some casual wear and left. Her hair was still wet.


    The weather was warm these days, and Yin Xun did not like to dry her hair with a hairdryer. She preferred to dry it naturally.


    Fang Yao¡¯s house was not locked, so Yin Xun went straight in.


    Fang Yao moved quickly and was already waiting for her in the living room with the mosquito repellent.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Yin Xun took it and was about to leave when she suddenly saw a bird on the other side of the living room from the corner of her eye. She turned her head and saw that it was the green-feathered parrot she had given to Fang Yao the other day.


    Yin Xun was about to leave, but when she saw the parrot, she stopped her footsteps and turned to move toward the bird.


    ¡°You raised it well. It¡¯s gained so much weight in the past few days.¡± Yin Xun walked to the parrot¡¯s side and sighed.


    When she saw the parrot standing there obediently, she reached out to touch it. However, before her hand could touch it, she heard the parrot speak. ¡°I like Yin


    Xun, I like Yin Xun¡­¡±


    It was hard to tell whether the parrot only knew this one sentence, or if it particularly liked saying this one. In any case, it kept repeating this sentence like a broken record.


    Yin Xun, ¡°!¡±


    Fang Yao,


    Fang Yao did not expect the parrot to be so intelligent. He had only told the parrot that he liked Yin Xun once, but he did not expect it to remember his words.


    The bird had never said these words before, so why did it suddenly speak when it saw Yin Xun today?


    Fang Yao immediately became nervous. After all, this was the parrot he had been raising. If it said such things, it could only mean that he had said it before and really had such thoughts. What would Yin Xun think about this?


    Thinking of this, Fang Yao¡¯s heart was filled with anticipation..

 Chapter 337 - Chapter 337: Interrupted Again

    Chapter 337: Interrupted Again

    When Yin Xun heard the parrot¡¯s words, her face was filled with surprise, She leaned closer to the parrot to take a look, then turned to ask Fang Yao, ¡¯¡¯You¡¯re amazing. The green-feathered parrot shouldn¡¯t be able to speak. How did you reach it?!¡¯1


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­I¡¯ve never specifically taught it anything. It might have learned it by itself after imitating words.''¡±


    The hint was so obvious that Fang Yao stared at Yin Xun.


    ¡°Wow, you¡¯re so smartl¡± Unexpectedly, Yin Xun only sighed and said to the parrot, ¡°1 like you too.¡¯1


    Fang Yao,


    Fine, he knew it wTould turn out like this.


    As soon as Yin Xun finished speaking to it, the parrot stopped talking. Yin Xun thought that the parrot had just let out a few impromptu cries. Unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, just as she was about to leave, the parrot suddenly began to speak again. ¡°Idiot, idiot¡­¡±


    Yin Xun made a face and threatened the panrot. ¡°Did you do it on purpose? How dare you call me an idiot? Do you believe me when 1 say 1¡¯11 flick your beak?¡±


    After saying that, she stretched out her hand and made a gesture of wanting to flick the parrot. This parrot was really smart. Perhaps it understood what she said or was afraid of her actions; it actually flew away.


    At this moment, Yin Xun realized that Fang Yao did not tie the parrot down and allowed it to fly around the hall.


    ¡®Aren¡¯t you going to tie it down?¡± Yin Xun turned around and asked.


    Fang Yao shook his head. ¡±The windows here are all closed, and the door is closed too, so we don¡¯t have to worry about it escaping. Besides, there are so many green plants here, and there are birds flying around. It looks like a small garden.1


    When he said this, Fang Yao¡¯s tone was a little bitter. Other than giving him green plants, Yin Xun was also giving him birds. Did he look like a gardener?


    However, Yin Xun did not notice his bitterness. She listened to Fang Yao¡¯s words and turned to look at the plants in the hall. Indeed, there were a lot of them. Even if Fang Yao suddenly lost his job, he did not have to worry about making a living. He could just sell these flowers to make ends meet.


    However, she was worried about another problem. ¡±It can¡¯t fly away, but you do know that birds are complex creatures, right? They eat and defecate as they please¡­¡±


    Fang Yao said, ¡°¡­The maids have been cleaning all this time. 1 didn¡¯t even notice.¡±


    As expected, Yin Xun s thoughts were always so unique.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun, who was playing with the parrot. She stretched out her arm in an attempt to let the parrot land on it.


    When Yin Xun got the parrot, the shop owner said that as long as she stretched out an arm and whistled, the parrot would fly over and land on her body.


    Yin Xun tried for a long time, bur the parrot ignored her.


    Fang Yao smiled and stretched out his arm. At the same time, he whistled. Under Yin Xun¡¯s surprised gaze, the parrot immediately flew to Fang Yao¡¯s arm. After stabilizing itself, it looked at Yin Xun and then lolled its head to the side.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Why do I feel like it¡¯s looking down on me?¡¯


    Fang Yao said, ¡°It sure looks like it.¡±


    Yin Xun,..¡±


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s getting late. I should go back to sleep. You should rest early too.1 Yin Xun looked up and smiled at Fang Yao. She then reminded him, ¡°Since Uncle Butler isn¡¯t around, it must be inconvenient for you to do things. If anything happens, you can call me anytime. Don¡¯t worry about waking me up.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s heart skipped a beat and he blurted, ¡®Then why don¡¯t you stay with me? It¡¯ll be more convenient¡­¡±


    Before he could finish, he realized that his words were inappropriate. Fang Yao stopped himself and apologized, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, 1.


    ¡®That¡¯s a good idea. Anyway, you have many rooms. Just give me an empty room to sleep in. Anyway, 1¡¯11 take care of you for one night. When the butler comes back, I¡¯ll leave. Don¡¯t feel embarrassed. You saved my life, so it¡¯s normal for me to take care of you.¡± Yin Xun did not mind at all.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun. When she left her house, she did not dry her hair. Her thick black hair was wet and draped over her shoulders. Occasionally, water droplets fell from the ends of her hair and landed on her smooth forehead and neck, which sparkled under the light. Fang Yao was a little lost in thought.


    ¡¯¡¯Yin Xun¡­¡± Fang Yao called out softly.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun looked at him in confusion.


    ¡®Actually¡­¡± Fang Yao felt that the two of them had known each other for so long that he had long confirmed his feelings for Yin Xun. Since he liked Yin Xun, he might as well tell her.


    As for Yin Xun, whether she rejected or accept his feeling, he would bear rhe outcome. Their cooperation would continue in the future, in any case.


    Even if he was terribly rejected, he would still help her with all his might in the future.


    Before he could say the words, however, he was interrupted by the sound of the door opening..

 Chapter 338 - Chapter 338: Say It

    Chapter 338: Say It


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndLessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Young Master, I¡¯m back.. Oh, Miss Yin is also here/¡¯ The door of the living room was opened, and the butler¡¯s smiling face was revealed.


    Yin Xun also greeted him, ¡°Uncle Butler, you¡¯re back, In that case, it seems like 1 don¡¯t need to stay here tonight. I¡¯ll go back first,¡¯1 Yin Xun bid farewell to the two of them and walked out.


    When she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and asked Fang Yao, ¡°By the way. Fang Yao, what did you want to say just now?¡±


    Fang Yao sighed and shook his head,¡± It¡¯s fine. Let¡¯s talk about it next time.¡±


    Yin Xun frowned slightly and said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to feel embarrassed with me. If you have anything to say, just say it. 1 like to face difficulties head-on and solve them because running away will only make things worse.¡±


    She thought that Fang Yao wanted to talk to her about work because he had gone with her to deliver the packages today. Perhaps he had discovered something bad that needed improvement, but he was too embarrassed to say it out of respect for her.


    The butler, who had always been supportive of Fang Yao and Yin Xun, did not know what was going on at this moment. He could tell what Fang Yao was thinking, and he quickly interrupted. ¡°Miss Yin, it is too late now. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow. Your health is the most important. Seriously, young people are always fighting for their careers. They don¡¯t even care about their health. What if they fall sick in the future?¡±


    Since the butler had already said this, Yin Xun smiled and nodded in agreement. ¡°Then we¡¯ll talk again. I¡¯m going back to sleep. Bye.¡±


    Yin Xun bid them farewell and went back.


    After Yin Xun left. Fang Yao frowned at the butler and said, ¡®¡±You did that on purpose just now.¡±


    The butler sighed and said, ¡°Young Master, don¡¯t forget that Miss Yin and Madam have already signed a contract. Seriously, if you did not interrupt, wouldn¡¯t it be too late to say it now? if you were to breach the contract, then the price that Miss Yin would have to pay right now is not something that she can afford. My older brother is also an antique of a man. He even thinks that Yin Xun¡¯s family background is not good enough and is not worthy of you.¡±


    Ar the mention of the contract, Fang Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and said,¡¯ 1 came to this neighborhood to avoid my mother¡¯s constant pestering for me to get married. It¡¯s far from home, and not many people know about this place, L didn¡¯t expect Qu Lu to find me and tell my mother. Originally, my mother only thought that 1 was investing, but she didn¡¯t know who the other party was. After Qu Lu tipped her off, my mother found out about Yin Xun and has been monitoring us ever since.¡±


    ¡®Young Master, was Miss Qu really sent by Madam to monitor you? 1 have stayed with the Fang family for many years. Back then, 1 took care of your parents with my brother for a long time. It was only after you were born that 1 came to take care of you. Based on my understanding of your parents, they are not people who would do such a thing. I would guess that it was Miss Qu who did it all herself. 1 have already said that 1 felt that she was a very jealous person. As expected, Miss Yin is better.


    At the mention of Qu Lu, the butler looked displeased. He had never liked that young lady from the very beginning.


    Fang Yao said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if my parents did it or not. What¡¯s important is that my parents now know about Yin Xun and they know that I¡¯m very close to her. That¡¯s why they were so secretive with the second investment. In order to negotiate with Yin Xun, they deliberately bypassed me to meet Yin Xun and signed the contract,¡±


    ¡°Then what should we do?¡± The butler was worried. If there was no way to solve this problem, even if Yin Xun had fallen in love with Fang Yao, the two of them would not be able to be together. No matter how strong Fang Yao was, he could nor win against the family¡¯s power.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll get them to terminate the contract in the future.¡± Fang Yao looked calm and relaxed. He was really not worried about this matter. What he was most worried about now was Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts.


    However, the butler was still anxious. He had lived for so long and had seen all kinds of people. Although Qu Lu had always been obedient, sensible, and meek, for some reason, he did nor have a good impression of her.


    On the other hand, Yin Xun was a generous person. Although she would sometimes be rude, she was very carefree. He liked her from the bottom of his heart and wTanted Yin Xun to be the young mistress of the Fang family.


    Fang Yao sighed and said, ¡°It will take some time for them to accept Yin Xun. The most important thing now is not whether they¡¯ll accept Yin Xun, but what Yin Xun thinks of me¡­¡¯


    In front of the butler, Fang Yao never minded being honest; the butler almost lost his life trying to save him in the past. There wTas no question of his loyalty. The butler was fully loyal to him and treated him like his own child..

    Chapter 339: Something Happened To Blue Fox


    Translator: EndlessFantaay Translation Editor: End LessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Young Master, have you realized that ever since you met Miss Yin, you seem to be sighing more and more?¡± The butler looked at Fang Yao and asked.


    ¡°Indeed, only Miss Yin is able to control you. 1 am suddenly looking forward to my future life¡­¡± The butler had a hopeful look on his face.


    Fang Yao,


    It seemed that he had been emotional too early. The butler had spent too much time with YinXun and had been infected.


    ¡°By the way. Young Master, 1 went to talk to Miss Liu Ying about your idea just now. She said that if you want her help, you have to promise her something.¡± At this point, the butler suddenly revealed a strange expression.


    Seeing the butler¡¯s expression, Fang Yao knew that something bad was going to happen.


    As expected, the housekeeper said slowly, ¡°She said that she wants to come to our house for a free meal.1.


    Fang Yao thought about it and nodded in agreement. ¡°Sure.¡¯


    ¡°Just like that?¡± The butler felt incredulous.


    Fang Yao said, ¡®We just have to ask the chef to make an extra portion for her. It¡¯s not troublesome/1


    The butler frowned. Would this not get in the way of Fang Yao and Yin Xun spending time together?


    However, although the butler had doubts, Fang Yao did not answer them. After giving the instructions, he returned to his room.


    Yin Xun went straight to bed after returning home.


    After a comfortable night¡¯s sleep, she drove her three-wheeled motorcycle to the warehouse the next day. However, she received a call from Mi Jin when she was not far from the neighborhood.


    ¡®President Yin, something happened to Blue Fox!¡± Through the phone, Yin Xun could already tell that Mi Jin was pleased.


    Yin Xun could vaguely guess what was going on, but she asked Mi Jin to make sure. ¡°What is it?¡±


    ¡®President Yin, if possible, you had better come back personally to take a look. In addition, 1 think that we can take this opportunity to directly defeat Blue Fox. Even if we can¡¯t defeat it completely, we can still cause Blue Fox to suffer a huge blowr in the future. Their company will not be able to challenge us for some time.¡¯


    Yin Xun thought for a while. The delivery problem could be postponed for now, but she could not miss an opportunity to defeat Si Fan. Hence, she agreed. ¡°Alright, 1¡¯11 go over now.¡±


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun turned the bike around and went straight to the company office.


    After parking the car at the entrance of the building, Yin Xun walked straight inside.


    At this moment, she was still wearing her delivery uniform and mask. Her hair was also stuffed into her hat, so those who did not know her well could not recognize her.


    She had just reached the door when she was stopped by the security guard.


    ¡°Wait, couriers aren¡¯t allowed in here. If there¡¯s a delivery, you can give it to me. 1¡¯11 pass it over for you,¡± the security guard said good-naturedly.


    Only then did Yin Xun remember how she looked She took off her mask and said helplessly, ¡°It¡¯s me. 1 came here in a hurry and didn¡¯t change my clothes.¡±


    The security guard saw that it was Yin Xun. He was instantly shocked as he said, ¡°President Yin, it¡¯s you. In that case, please come in, please come in!¡±


    He was very curious as to why Yin Xun was wearing a delivery uniform to work, but his status was too different from Yin Xun¡¯s. This was not something he could ask about. He could only suppress his curiosity and usher Yin Xun in.


    ¡°This is the uniform of our company¡¯s express delivery. You¡¯re new here, right?¡± Yin Xun pointed at her clothes and said to rhe security guard, ¡°In the future, employees of Xintao Express can enter the building, but other express delivery sendees can¡¯t be let in.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± The security guard nodded in agreement.


    When Yin Xun arrived at the office, Mi Jin was already waiting for her at the door.


    The two of them went inside the office. Mi Jin quickly reported Blue Fox¡¯s matter to Yin Xun. At the same time, he asked Yin Xun to take out her phone and gestured for her to open a social media post.


    Yesterday, Blue Fox took advantage of the popularity of Xintao s advertisement to go online. This was the first time people could buy something from them via mobile phone. Coupled with the influence of Xintao, it became a great center of attention and attracted many people.


    After all, although Xintao was a mobile phone app, there were restrictions. It could only be used by Zhenku and Xiaoguo phones. Not everyone had the money to buy a mobile phone just for that software.


    In addition to this, there was also Blue Fox¡¯s previous discount. Everyone was eager to see what compensation Blue Fox would give the users. After all, they had not given all the details back then.


    Some users analyzed that it would not be long before Xintao was released, Therefore, Blue Fox would definitely be aware of this incoming crisis. Previously, the discount on the computer site had caused such a huge commotion. This time, the company would surely give the users a lot of compensation, As for Xintao, although it was very popular previously, this did not matter. This was the case in business. Being a step late would be fatal.


    Before this, Xintao had constantly been suppressing Blue Fox. However, now that Blue Fox had started to counterattack, they prioritized going online first. Blue Fox did not give Xintao a chance to survive. Presumably, Xintao would not be able to hold on for long after this and would disappear..

 Chapter 340 - Chapter 340: A Huge Problem

    Chapter 340: A Huge Problem


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndLesiFantasy Translation


    In the past, there were internet companies that tried to shake Blue Fox¡¯s status. Some of them were even more popular than Xintao was now. In the end, they all disappeared without a trace. Since they had no legal representatives, Xintao would definitely end up the same.


    It was hard to tell if the users talking about this were really Blue Fox¡¯s fans or rhe paid content creators. Blue Fox was praised by them so much that Xintao was degraded to nothing.


    Seeing this, Yin Xun simply smiled and did not take it seriously.


    How could a business war be so simple? The right time, right place, and right people were all needed. If Blue Fox really made a comeback, she felt that it was quite a good thing. At the very least, it proved that the male protagonist did not rely on the protagonist¡¯s aura but had some ability of his own.


    Yin Xun continued reading.


    This user had a lot of followers. Under their instigation, many people who did not know what was going on promptly supported Blue Fox. They said that although they had never tried Xintao, they knew at a glance that Xintao could not compare.


    These people scoffed at the users who used Xintao. They thought that Xintao users were a group of poor people who were desperate for coupons. They even said that Blue Fox¡¯s future development would definitely be a slap in the face of all those who used Xintao,


    Currently, the users of Xintao were limited to the users of the two phone brands. Compared to the entire Internet, this accounted for too few people. Therefore, there were only a few people on the losing side.


    Yin Xun looked at rhe people who spoke up for Xintao. Although the comments were from yesterday, she still gave them a Like.


    ¡®We¡¯re all just small weeds on the internet. Who¡¯s to say one person is better than another? Comparing all this is just silly.¡¯1 Yin Xun sighed.


    Mi Jin was shocked as he looked at her. He complained, ¡®¡¯President Yin, what you are saying? If we want to earn money, don¡¯t we have to rely on these weeds? The more they buy, the more we can compete. Only then can we make more money.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡®That¡¯s right. That¡¯s why they¡¯re stupid. It¡¯s fine as long as they buy what they need, In order to make up rhe bill, they even bought a bunch of useless things. In the end, they spent money for nothing. Also, since they¡¯re just weeds, shouldn¡¯t they try their best to fight for the greatest benefit for themselves? Who would speak up for capitalists?¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun tried to click on the user¡¯s main page to check if he was a troll or a real user. In the end, she could not click on it at all. It showed that the user had deleted their account.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on?¡± Yin Xun clicked on rhe comments section again and found that she could not drop a comment, though she could still Like it.


    She asked in confusion, ¡°Mi Jin, why are you showing me this?¡± What was the point of looking at this when it had already been locked?


    Mi Jin shook his head and said, ¡®¡±There is no point. I¡¯m just showing it to you to make you feel better.¡±


    Under Yin Xun¡¯s puzzled gaze, Mi Jin took out an old phone and handed it over to Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, do you have a bank card with very little money? You must not have much on it. It would be best if it was just a few tens of yuan. You can try using Blue Fox to buy something.¡±


    Although Yin Xun did not understand what Mi Jin meant, she still did as she was told.


    She did not have a Blue Fox account yet, so she registered one on the spot. Then, she followed Mi Jin¡¯s instructions and spent a few yuan to buy a small item.


    In the beginning, everything was normal. Yin Xun was still puzzled by what was happening. There was no problem. Although the software was a little slow, it was understandable because the phone she was using was relatively old. It might be a problem of running the app on too little memory.


    However, after more than ten seconds, she knew why Mi Jin asked her to test it like this.


    Just as she was feeling more and more puzzled, she suddenly received a text message from the bank. She looked at it and saw that her balance was zero!


    Yin Xun thought that the bank had sent it to the wrong account, so she used her phone to check again. It was still zero. Her face instantly darkened.


    Thinking of Mi Jin¡¯s reaction just now, she immediately understood. She gritted her teeth and looked at Mi Jin. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me directly? Must you make me experience it personally? Seriously, 1 don¡¯t have any money left!¡±


    Mi Jin adjusted his glasses and looked to the side. He sard in a weak voice, ¡®Wouldn¡¯t it be better to understand exactly how scummy your opponent is by experiencing it yourself? Moreover, 1 reminded you to use a bank card with little money¡­¡±


    Yin Xun,..¡±


    Why did she feel that Mi Jin had become a little evil recently? He even had the nerve to play tricks on her. When he first came, he was cautious and reserved.


    ¡±A couple dozen yuan is still money. Moreover, 1 had zoo yuan here¡­¡± Yin Xun was a little helpless, zoo yuan was still money. Lt could buy a lot of things.


    However, because of this, Yin Xun knew how serious the incident with Blue Fox was. Si Fan was in deep trouble now..

 Chapter 341 - Chapter 341: Like Opening A Mystery Box

    Chapter 341: Like Opening A Mystery Box


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mi Jin asked Yin Xun to use the Blue Fox software for a while longer. Yin Xun thought that since there was no more money in her bank account, she did not have to worry about her money being deducted anymore. Hence, she listened to Mi Jin¡¯s instructions and started to look through the various goods.


    At first, everything was normal except for the checking out. After browsing for a while, Yin Xun felt that something was wrong.


    Her phone became hotter and hotter until it was a little scalding. It became more and more difficult to swipe the software. It was as if the screen had lost its sensitivity until it was completely stuck. She could not rewind even if she wanted to.


    Yin Xun was exasperated. After waiting for a while, the phone became even hotter but the software showed no signs of reverting. She had no choice but to turn off the phone and try to restart it. After all, turning off the phone was the best cure for electronic products.


    However, right after she did that, Yin Xun realized that it had somehow restarted on its own. In addition, various promotional news suddenly occupied half of the phone screen. Taking advantage of the fact that the software had just started running and had not settled in properly, Yin Xun quickly logged out. Sure enough, she managed to log out, but the app background was still running.


    In order to prevent the software from being permanently stuck, Yin Xun quickly uninstalled the software along with the local storage files. Yin Xun thought that she was finally free. However, when she left the uninstallation interface, she realized that the Blue Fox software was still there. It had not been successfully uninstalled just now! ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Yin Xun asked with a frown.


    Mi Jin shrugged and said, ¡°This software has just been completed. It¡¯s equivalent to asking users to help find bugs. A software that has only just been completed and hasn¡¯t been tested can have a variety of problems, such as the software becoming a virus.¡±


    ¡°In other words, there might be many problems with this software in different models of phones. What I¡¯ve encountered so far is a deduction of money and jamming.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. This kind of bug is like opening a mystery box. Even the same phone type might have different bugs.¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun in confusion, as if she was the main culprit.


    ¡°Why are you looking at me like that?¡± Yin Xun shifted to the side. This had nothing to do with her. She was not a black-hearted CEO.


    Mi Jin smiled and said, ¡°President Yin, this matter is also related to you. If you did not force him into such a crisis, he would not have taken such a gamble. He did not even do the tests before he went online with the software. Was this your plan? It is obvious that our Xintao is not ready for launch yet, but you were acting as if you are going online immediately. You created such a huge commotion that Si Fan thought he was running out of time.¡±


    ¡°You think too highly of Si Fan. Even if he proceeded at a steady pace, do you think I¡¯m afraid of him? I didn¡¯t expect him to be this impatient. I really don¡¯t know he started the company¡± Yin Xun said helplessly.


    ¡°I¡¯m an example of swindling and more swindling.¡± Mi Jin lowered his eyes and said indifferently.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. We¡¯ll take revenge in the end. But¡­¡± Yin Xun comforted Mi Jin. ¡°If you have any problems next time, can you tell me directly? Don¡¯t beat around the bush. Seriously, although this phone isn¡¯t worth much, I still feel sorry that it can¡¯t be used because of such a small matter. Also, the money in my bank card just now¡­¡±


    Yin Xun felt her heart ache.


    Mi Jin nodded. ¡°Sure, but only by experiencing it personally can you understand how big of a mistake Si Fan made this time. Those who spoke up for Blue Fox were quickly exposed online. Everyone went berserk and scolded those posts that praised Blue Fox. The reason why it hasn¡¯t made it to the trending searches yet is probably because everyone¡¯s phones are broken and they can¡¯t access the internet. When their phones are fixed and they have a chance to go online, this matter will probably be spread wide and far.


    ¡°Also, now you know why that user deleted his account.¡± Mi Jin gestured for Yin Xun to open the social media and search for the words Blue Fox¡¯. Instantly, five or six topics related to Blue Fox¡¯s software popped up.


    ¡®How do I uninstall the Blue Fox software?¡¯


    ¡®What should I do if the Blue Fox software fails?¡¯


    ¡®Is the Blue Fox software a scam?¡¯


    It was filled with such topics. Yin Xun clicked on them and saw many posts cursing Blue Fox. Everyone was indignant and complained that their phones had died because of Blue Fox¡¯s software. Some of the money in their bank cards had been deducted for no reason. There were also some users that could not uninstall the software. The software kept running in the background, causing their phones to overheat. In order to prevent them from burning out, they could only shut down their phones and did not dare to turn them on.


    There were too many questions, and the number of replies to these posts was quite large. However, the engagement was not high. It seemed that they were deliberately restricted by the platform..

 Chapter 342 - Chapter 342: New Delivery

    Chapter 342: New Delivery


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Just as Mi Jin had said, everyone encountered different problems, and they were all different. This software was not problematic for everyone, though. Some users who used the latest phone models kept praising this software, saying that it was convenient and cheap to buy things. They did not encounter any lagging at all.


    They even claimed that the people who criticized Blue Fox were old-fashioned ghostwriters. Moreover, they were called poor people who used antiques. Since they could not afford a new phone, they could only blame the software for being too large.


    Those who had no problems mocked the users who had issues, causing everyone to be even angrier. Those who had suffered losses because of Blue Fox cursed them harshly.


    It would have been fine if it was just the phone that got jammed. The worst situation was for those who used Blue Fox to place an order and ended up with their bank accounts deducted. Yin Xun scrolled down twice and saw more posts of this kind.


    [You guys should be glad that you only encountered a lag or a phone crash. Your phones can still be fixed. What I encountered was even worse. I don¡¯t even have any money in my bank card anymore! I used Blue Fox to buy a frying pan and got scammed. In the end, I lost more than 100,000 yuan in my bank card. It¡¯s a trash app. Give me back my hard-earned money!]


    [I¡¯m in the same situation. I don¡¯t have the 30,000 yuan in my bank account anymore. I just bought some snacks. What should I do? I clearly didn¡¯t spend that much money. Why is it gone? Can I get the money back?]


    [Didn¡¯t you notice that the final price changed when you paid? It was originally only a few yuan, but it suddenly became the maximum amount. It happened to be the same amount as the balance on our card. Who would believe that Blue Fox didn¡¯t do it on purpose?! Don¡¯t use their software to buy things now. Whoever buy something will go bankrupt. Speaking of which, are there any lawyers among our victims? What should we do in such a situation? I couldn¡¯t even get through to Blue Fox¡¯s customer service. No one picked up at all. Don¡¯t tell me they ran away with the money?]


    Seeing the netizens¡¯ complaints, Yin Xun sympathized deeply because she had also lost more than a hundred yuan just now.


    Everyone was a common victim. Yin Xun also joined in the discussion.


    [Blue Fox¡¯s actions are illegal. I¡¯ve also lost money. If Blue Fox doesn¡¯t resolve it, we¡¯ll sue them together. I heard from my friend who bought a Zhenku phone that there¡¯s a lawyer¡¯s consultation shop in Xintao that can be consulted online. Why don¡¯t we go to Xintao and take a look?]


    Mi Jin was at the side. When he saw the content of Yin Xun¡¯s reply, he gave her a thumbs up and said, ¡°President Yin, with your business acumen, it would be strange if you did not earn money.¡±


    However, after that, Mi Jin suddenly thought of something. When did Xintao have an online lawyer consultation shop? He asked Yin Xun curiously, ¡°President Yin, since when were we in the law consultation industry?¡±


    Yin Xun put down her phone and said without changing her expression, ¡°We will be soon.¡±


    She had gotten to know a few big lawyers a long time ago because she wanted to run Xintao. At that time, she had already agreed that they could send a special representative to open an online shop on Xintao to help clients answer their questions. It was not free of charge, but it was not expensive either. Anyone could afford it. The lawyers could answer small questions directly and let the clients send the big questions to the law firm. This way, they could help them rope in business.


    Although the duty of a lawyer was to uphold the law and stand up for those who had been unfairly treated, there was one thing to pay attention to. Lawyers were also human beings. They had to eat and live. It was not shameful to want to earn money before talking about ideals.


    Yin Xun shared her thoughts with Mi Jin.


    ¡°If possible, can we add another section to Xintao? This section must be on a separate page. It has to be clean and clear. There can¡¯t be too many advertisements and other nonsense. Add an online order platform. I¡¯ve been too busy these past few days and forgot to tell you about it,¡± Yin Xun said to Mi Jin.


    She suddenly remembered that she wanted to make a delivery platform too. Apart from food delivery, this platform would also consider a series of methods to buy tickets online. After careful consideration, she felt that it was good to add this section to Xintao.


    Yin Xun turned on her computer and found the proposal. She pointed at the proposal and told Mi Jin about her idea.


    Xintao already had two sections. One was for shopping, and the other was for making friends. The two sections did not interfere with each other. There were no advertisements to disrupt each other, and there were no random messages from the software. In addition, the software had a balance management system, which made it easier to pay for things.


    Now, she just needed to add another section next that would work with restaurants. After that, Xintao would hire people to specialize in distribution. The two parties would work together and try to deliver the food to the customers with the shortest possible time..

 Chapter 343 - Chapter 343: Taking The Opportunity To Step On Si Fan

    Chapter 343: Taking The Opportunity To Step On Si Fan


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Although there was food takeaway now, those were all delivered by the merchants themselves. If customers wanted to order different takeaways, they had to add the contact details of many different merchants and call them. It was very inconvenient. If there was a platform specially used for delivery, the merchants only needed to focus on cooking. It would save a lot of time.


    The money for ordering takeout could be paid from the balance of Xintao Friends. The balance would also bag a profit for Xintao users. It could encourage users to try their best to deposit more money in the app¡¯s balance. Then, the money they saved would just appear as a string of numbers to customers. The real money was in Xintao¡¯s hands.


    Xintao could use this money to invest in other investments, and the profits from the investment would be distributed according to the amount of savings the users had. Anyway, as long as the interest rate was slightly higher than the bank¡¯s, it could attract many customers to use Xintao to make friends and save money.


    However, they needed to have connections. At the same time, Xintao would also work with various banks so that users could pay directly with their bank cards. This way, they would not drag customers to Xintao and cause the banks to suffer.


    Of course, after saying all this, Yin Xun¡¯s greatest requirement for Mi Jin was not to be flashy with the design. The page had to be simple and clean. Before they went online, he needed to test it a few more times. They could delay the launch, but they could not have any problems like Blue Fox.


    Mi Jin listened to Yin Xun talk about how Xintao would develop step by step. His face was filled with disbelief.


    After Yin Xun told Mi Jin about the idea, she asked him, ¡°Can you do what I said? Can you do this after Xintao is fully online? If it¡¯s too difficult, you can¡­¡±


    ¡°There is no problem. It is just an additional section with an additional function. It is a little troublesome, but it is not difficult. However, President Yin, where did you get so many ideas from? Why do your ideas seem to be infinite?¡± Mi Jin stared at Yin Xun without blinking.


    ¡°That¡¯s a secret.¡± Yin Xun smiled mysteriously. ¡°However, have you done a test analysis of Blue Fox¡¯s software? They¡¯re not a small company. How could there be such a serious problem? I originally expected them to have a few issues, but I didn¡¯t expect such a huge mistake. If it¡¯s not handled well, Blue Fox¡¯s reputation will be ruined.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve tested it. Although there are many bugs in the software, there are ways to deal with them.¡± Mi Jin shifted his glasses before answering Yin Xun¡¯s question.


    ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, Blue Fox¡¯s application must have been rushed out. There are a lot of errors in the code, but the obvious problems shouldn¡¯t have been made by a qualified programmer. However, even though there¡¯s something wrong with their software and it seems to have blown up this time, we can¡¯t really use this opportunity to suppress them. After all, Blue Fox is a mature company and knows how to do public relations. As long as they can repair the software as soon as possible, provide some activities, and apologize, I¡¯m sure this matter will blow over quickly.¡±


    No one wanted to kill Si Fan more than Mi Jin. Back then, he had been harmed so ruthlessly by Si Fan. Now that there was a chance to take down Si Fan, he would definitely not let go of this opportunity. Before this, he had thought of countless ways to step on Si Fan. However, could he take Si Fan down completely? At the most critical moment, Mi Jin had no idea.


    ¡°That¡¯s simple.¡± Yin Xun smiled and was not worried about this problem at all. She patted Mi Jin¡¯s shoulder and comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, we¡¯ve already reached this stage. We¡¯ve long fallen out with Si Fan and become enemies. Regardless of whether we had any hard feelings in the past, we can¡¯t let him make a comeback now.¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Mi Jin nodded and continued to ask, ¡°Then what should we do now?¡±


    It was alright to let Mi Jin do technical work, but he could not be the one scheming.


    Yin Xun asked him seriously, ¡°Do you have a way to help the Blue Fox users from their bugs this time? Can you help the customers who suffered losses to recover the extra money that was deducted? This is because Blue Fox¡¯s money deduction is different from other software with typical errors. It¡¯s clear because a lot of additional costs were added when the payment is made. This mistake is not caused by the bank, so we can only blame Blue Fox. If the customers join forces to sue Blue Fox, as long as they don¡¯t have advanced technology, we might still not be able to recover the money.¡±


    ¡°It should be possible. I¡¯ve tried to solve it, but there¡¯s a problem¡­¡± Mi Jin frowned.


    Yin Xun motioned for him to continue.. ¡°What is it?¡±

 Chapter 344 - Chapter 344: Yin Xun Has A Solution

    Chapter 344: Yin Xun Has A Solution


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°There are too many bugs in the Blue Fox software, so I have to make a mandatory uninstallation software to completely eliminate it. This is equivalent to an antivirus. However, because of its uniqueness, once this software is downloaded, it can¡¯t be uninstalled,¡± Mi Jin said. ¡°However, there¡¯s no side effect. It¡¯s just that it can¡¯t be uninstalled. It¡¯s different from Blue Fox¡¯s harmful app. The only drawback is that if the phone has this software, it can never install Blue Fox in the future. The Blue Fox app will be treated as a virus interceptor.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s simple. I¡¯m sure those phone manufacturers won¡¯t mind this problem. I¡¯ll discuss it with them later. At the same time, Xintao is about to go online. It just so happens that Blue Fox is going downhill while our Xintao is going online. With this comparison, our software will be more popular.¡± Yin Xun smiled slightly. ¡°Si Fan¡¯s impulsiveness has given us a boost.¡±


    After discussing the method to deal with the Blue Fox software with Mi Jin, the two of them separated and went to do their own things.


    Mi Jin continued to develop the software, while Yin Xun could only suspend her courier experience and change into her daily clothes. She went out to discuss the collaboration with the affected phone brands.


    Regarding Blue Fox¡¯s incident, not only were the users and Blue Fox anxious, but the phone manufacturers were also worried.


    The reason they agreed to put Blue Fox directly on the app store without looking at the test report was that Blue Fox was a mature company. Before Xintao came out, Blue Fox had always been the dominant company on the Internet. There was no company more mature than Blue Fox, so they had always been very credible in the industry.


    In addition, Blue Fox had collaborated with a foreign phone brand. In order to get close to Blue Fox, the domestic phones had especially skipped the test report and signed a contract with Blue Fox. They thought that they could get some users for their brand by doing this and they did not expect such an incident to happen. Not only did they not fail to get any customers, but even their phones were implicated.


    Currently, the development in the country was still relatively backward. There were not many outstanding programmers. The small phone manufacturers did not have strong technology and could not do anything about this software.


    The angry users did not care if it was the fault of the phone manufacturers or Blue Fox. They rushed into the comments section and criticized them.


    [What kind of trash phone is this? It can¡¯t even hold a shopping app. It gets so hot that it looks like it has a fever. As expected, you can¡¯t get good stuff at a cheap price. Compared to the Alphabet brand cell phone, this one is simply trash. I won¡¯t buy it again in the future.]


    [Is this phone so trashy now? What era are we in? Not only has the technology not improved, but it even deteriorated. It can¡¯t even uninstall software. Also, what¡¯s going on with the app store? Shouldn¡¯t there be a security scanner? How can this virus software enter the app store?]


    Other than giving bad reviews to the phone manufacturers, there were also those who went to Blue Fox¡¯s official website to criticize them as soon as the website was online.


    [Trashy Blue Fox, return my hard-earned money! Otherwise, I¡¯ll sue you even if I have to risk my life. You¡¯re all scoundrels! You didn¡¯t even pick up the customer service. Are you planning to run away? Everyone, let¡¯s boycott Blue Fox together. We won¡¯t touch anything related to Blue Fox in the future!]


    There were complaints and curses. For a moment, the comments section was extremely eventful. Now that Blue Fox had traffic, its engagement continued to rise. It might become a trending topic before night fell.


    The matter had blown up. Not only were the users calling Blue Fox, but the phone manufacturers were also calling. They wanted to ask Blue Fox how to resolve this matter. Since there were too many people calling, the line became very busy.


    Seeing how the matter was brewing, even the phone manufacturers scolded Blue Fox and said that they would never work together again.


    While everyone was in this chaotic state, Yin Xun said that she had a solution, so the phone manufacturers were naturally very happy. Their representatives would be free whenever Yin Xun met them, and their attitude would be friendly.


    On Si Fan¡¯s side, the situation was very bad.


    In order to get investments, Si Fan was flirting with the rich lady who had once been interested in him. He was sleeping with someone else behind Yin Mo¡¯s back.


    In his drunken stupor, he received a call from Cheng She.


    ¡°President Si, something bad has happened!¡±


    Cheng She reported loudly once the call got through. At this moment, Si Fan was carrying a woman in his arms. When he heard Cheng She say this, he immediately snapped, ¡°What are you panicking for? If there¡¯s anything, we¡¯ll talk later. I¡¯m busy now.¡±


    With that, Si Fan was about to hang up. Usually, Cheng She would just accept his fate. If he could not win, he would suffer and deal with it. Anyway, it was fine as long as he could resolve it in the end.


    This time, however, he could not solve the problem no matter what he tried..

 Chapter 345 - Chapter 345: Another Major Incident

    Chapter 345: Another Major Incident


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    He knew Si Fan¡¯s temper. Once Si Fan heard his report, he would definitely vent his anger on him. However, what else could he do? Other than him, no one was willing to report to Si Fan.


    Si Fan was famous in the company for being hot-tempered and having a tendency of hitting people. Recently, because of Xintao¡¯s appearance, this had become even more serious. Now, the employees of the company were squeezed so dry that they wanted to resign. If this matter could not be dealt with and Si Fan forced more work on everyone, the employees would not stay any longer.


    Cheng She knew that once some people left, he would be the first to suffer because he could not leave. If another employee resigned, all the work would be handed over to him. That would be hell.


    Before he called Si Fan, he had tried various methods to get the programmers to work overtime to deal with the problem. However, the situation was too serious. It was not something that could be resolved in a short period of time. Now, the website was filled with people scolding Blue Fox. If he had not had the foresight to spend money in advance to suppress the social media engagement, the hot searches about Blue Fox would have long rushed to the top of list, and there would be more than one discussion thread.


    However, they could only suppress it for a while, but not for two days. After such a long time, the discussion rate was already number one on the entire social media website. Even if they spent money, they could not suppress all of it. After all, the data was already there.


    He had no choice but to bite the bullet and report to Si Fan.


    ¡°President Si, our website has been completely lost!¡± Before Si Fan could hang up, Cheng She said a short sentence. He was afraid that if Si Fan really hung up, it would be difficult to get through again.


    As the CEO, Si Fan usually left everything to his subordinates to manage while he did a minimal amount.


    At the thought of this, Cheng She was even more envious of the employees who had jumped ship to Xintao. They said that Yin Xun was especially humane as a boss. She would never squeeze her employees dry or take up their time. If they worked overtime, they would not miss out on food and transport allowance or overtime pay. On the other hand, Blue Fox had nothing but a pile of work for them.


    Upon hearing Cheng She¡¯s words, Si Fan stopped in the motion of hanging up. He looked at the woman in his arms and suppressed the anger he felt. If the woman heard that something had happened to his company, it would be disastrous if she chose not to invest.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Did something happen?¡± The woman asked as she lay in Si Fan¡¯s arms.


    Si Fan comforted her. ¡°It¡¯s nothing serious. It¡¯s just that the employees have some questions and need my advice. Wait for me here. I¡¯ll make a call and be back soon.¡±


    Before he left, he planted a gentle kiss on the woman¡¯s forehead. His expression was extremely gentle.


    Si Fan had not hung up while he was talking, so Cheng She heard everything. Of course, he also noticed that the voice did not belong to Yin Mo.


    He did not expect Si Fan to still be in the mood to cheat at a time like this. Although Si Fan was his superior, Cheng She still felt disdainful in his heart. He considered cheating to be immoral.


    Although he felt this way, he did not dare to show it. When Si Fan walked to a place where no one was around and asked about the exact situation, Cheng She honestly and respectfully told him everything.


    ¡°What? You¡¯re only here to tell me about such a big matter now?!¡± After hearing everything, Si Fan exploded. He wanted to scold Cheng She, but he remembered that there was someone else in the room. He could not let that woman hear him lose his composure like this, so he tried his best to hold his anger in as he questioned Cheng She.


    Cheng She knew that he would be scolded by Si Fan, so he explained carefully, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say not to disturb you unless there¡¯s a particularly serious matter? You said that you had something very important to do, so when the matter first started, we tried to resolve it ourselves. If we couldn¡¯t, only then would we look for you.¡±


    After saying that, he complained internally. Cheng She actually believed that Si Fan really had something big going on, but it turned out that he was sleeping with another woman. When she thought of Yin Mo, he immediately felt a sense of pity. Everyone in Blue Fox knew that Yin Mo loved Si Fan. The two of them had been in love for so many years, and Si Fan had always acted devotedly and affectionately in front of Yin Mo. Yin Mo was a romantic and had always believed in Si Fan¡¯s character.


    Yin Mo must not have expected that Si Fan had been secretly cheating on her without her knowing.


    Si Fan did not accept Cheng She¡¯s explanation. He spat, ¡°What a bunch of useless people.. All you know is to find excuses! How much time have I given you? Is it so difficult to research software? Also, what are you doing with the software? Didn¡¯t you realize that there are so many bugs? Why did you let them exist? Can¡¯t you get it right in one go?


    Must 1 give you a long time to test it? Do I have to treat you like my master even when I pay you a salary?¡±

 Chapter 346 - Chapter 346: Poor Assistant

    Chapter 346: Poor Assistant


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Cheng She was scolded so much that he felt wronged. The technical department had already done its best. They just could not compare to Mi Jin. Mi Jin was a person who had won various awards in the past. Si Fan had not cherished his skills and, in the end, he lost such an outstanding partner. Now, his company would be inferior in this technical aspect no matter what he did.


    Besides, Cheng She was not even a member of the technical department. He was just an assistant. He was in charge of notifications and reports. Whether the technical department could succeed or not was a matter of their skills. What did it have to do with him? In the end, he was the one who got scolded every time.


    He also could get angry. Aside from being scolded by Si Fan for so long, he had been working overtime every day without extra pay. He had long been holding back his anger.


    Although he still did not dare to vent his anger in front of Si Fan, he wanted to defend himself.


    ¡°I¡¯ve reminded you before that the software has just been developed and hasn¡¯t been tested yet. Even the technical department wasn¡¯t sure what kind of bugs will appear, but you insisted on going online. Normally, our software should have been tested on various systems before it can be used. Therefore, it¡¯s reasonable for such a thing to happen¡­¡±


    ¡°Reasonable? Do you know how much this will affect Blue Fox¡¯s reputation? This time, not only will we make no profits, but we also have to dish out lots of compensation. Trash, what a bunch of trash! Before this, we could not get any investors and even lost money. What will the company do next?¡± At this moment, Si Fan was so angry that he spoke without thinking.


    Cheng She knew that he could not say anything at this time. Fortunately, he was not physically by Si Fan¡¯s side. Otherwise, he would definitely be beaten up. This could be considered a blessing in disguise.


    After cursing for a while, Si Fan must have vented most of the anger in his heart. Then, he said to Cheng She, ¡°I don¡¯t care what method you use. You can spend money to keep people¡¯s mouths shut, or you can go and find other technicians to help. In any case, you have to settle this matter by tomorrow, or I¡¯ll fire you!¡±


    Cheng She wailed in his heart. Things were already like this, yet he still had to find a solution. It was precisely because he had no solutions that he came to report it.


    ¡°But, President Si, we really don¡¯t have a choice¡­¡± Cheng She weakly tried to fight for himself.


    In the end, Si Fan did not give him the chance to complain. He interrupted him directly and said, ¡°What do I support you for? To frceload? Go and find the technical department, the operations department, and the other departments for a meeting. Everyone will think of a solution together. Unless they¡¯re complete trash, this number of people will be able to think of a solution. I¡¯m busy now. I¡¯m discussing an investment. If you can¡¯t resolve this matter, I¡¯ll fire all of you!¡±


    Si Fan snorted and hung up without giving Cheng She a chance to speak.


    Cheng She was about to cry when he heard the disconnection sound from the phone.


    Did Si Fan forget that he was only an assistant? How could he be such a miracle worker? If he knew how to do everything, he might as well open his own company and save on the cost of hiring an assistant.


    Despite being the president of the company, Si Fan did not help when the company was in trouble. He even said that he was busy getting investments. He must be so busy that he went to a woman¡¯s bed.


    Before looking for Si Fan, Cheng She had already tried all the methods he could think of, but none of them worked.


    Now that Si Fan had asked him to solve it himself, he had no idea what to do.


    Just as he was at a loss, his phone rang. He thought that Si Fan finally realized the importance of the matter and called. In the end, he took out the phone only to see that it was a call from his colleague from the technical department.


    He did not need to answer to know what it was about.


    At this moment, he was really frustrated, so he did not pick up and let the phone ring.


    The call ended, and another call came in, one after the other. Cheng She did not pick up any of the calls, as if he was listening to music.


    At this moment, he was sitting on a small park chair behind the company building. There were neatly trimmed trees around him, blocking his figure. From the outside, it was almost impossible to see that there was anyone here.


    It was still during working hours, so there were not many people in the park. He did not have to worry about meeting his colleagues.


    The phone rang for a long time. In the end, Cheng She felt that it was really annoying, so he turned the phone to silent mode. Then, he tossed the phone aside and began to think.


    At this moment, he was not thinking about how to solve the company¡¯s problem, but how to leave while ensuring his safety.


    No matter how much he thought about it, he could not think of a way to deal with Si Fan. He knew that Si Fan had a team of thugs behind him. Cheng She had no status or background, so he could not afford to make an enemy of Si Fan..

 Chapter 347 - Chapter 347:1 Want to Resign

    Chapter 347:1 Want to Resign


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    He thought about how Si Fan and Yin Xun were arch-enemies now, and how Xintao had accepted the people who quit Blue Fox one by one. Could he also try to go to Xin Tao?


    Cheng She figured there was no doubt about Yin Xun¡¯s ability. Xintao had just started recently, but she had already forced Si Fan¡¯s hand to this extent and even saved Mi Jin. If he also asked Yin Xun for help, Yin Xun would definitely have a way to help him deal with Si Fan.


    However, there was one problem. He was Si Fan¡¯s assistant. Once he left Blue Fox to go to Xintao, it would be no different from betrayal. He had to think of a perfect reason for it.


    Cheng She sat alone in the park for a long time, but in the end, he still had no idea. He had no choice. Running away would not solve the problem.


    He could only return to the company to face these things for now. If Si Fan knew that he was alone outside and not tending to the company¡¯s matters, he would definitely flare up at him again.


    He took out his phone and saw that there were more than thirty missed calls. Most of them were from different people. Cheng She immediately felt his head hurt even more. There must be something going on for him to get so many calls. Could something have happened to Blue Fox again?


    He found a random number and was about to call back when another call came in. This time, he pressed the answer button and asked weakly, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°Assistant Cheng, what did President Si say? How are we going to solve this problem?¡± The other party was from the technical department.


    Cheng She sighed and said, ¡°President Si is very busy now. He wants us to think of a way to resolve this matter ourselves. By the way, how¡¯s the technical department doing? Have you thought of a solution?¡±


    The other party did not answer Cheng She¡¯s question. Instead, he replied with another question. ¡°Assistant Cheng, what do you mean by asking us to solve it? Are we going to work overtime again while President Si does nothing about it?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right, we can only trouble you guys. As long as we get through this crisis, I¡¯m sure President Si will definitely send compensation to everyone.¡± When Cheng She said this, he felt a little guilty because he knew that with Si Fan¡¯s petty personality, he would just consider this extra work as something everyone should do. It was already merciful enough if he did not scold anyone. There was no way he would compensate them.


    ¡°Assistant Cheng, I¡¯m not making things difficult for you, but look, ever since Xintao came online, we¡¯ve been working overtime almost every day. It¡¯s one thing that we¡¯re working ourselves half-dead, but we don¡¯t get any compensation at all and we¡¯re even scolded by CEO Si. If we really had a solution to this huge matter, do you think it would have dragged on until now?¡±


    Hearing the other party¡¯s tone, Cheng She frowned and asked, ¡°What do you mean?¡±


    ¡°Assistant Cheng, we know that you¡¯ve always been a good person. All these decisions were President Si¡¯s ideas. However, Blue Fox is too oppressive. This matter doesn¡¯t have anything to do with us. We were the ones who developed the software, so we should be responsible for the quality of the software. However, the main fault lies with President Si. We already said that the software needs to be tested. He was the one who insisted on going online directly. When something like this happened, he even asked us to resolve it ourselves.¡±


    The other party sighed and paused for a moment, as if he was feeling conflicted. Cheng She did not rush him or interrupt. He just waited quietly for him to continue.


    Finally, after a moment of silence, the employee continued, ¡°Our technology is not the best in the country, but it¡¯s not bad either. It can be considered to be one of the best. No employee can stand to be treated like this. Therefore, after some discussion, we¡¯ve decided that we want to resign. If we can¡¯t resolve this matter, you should find someone else.¡±


    ¡°Dong Zi,¡± Cheng She addressed the man, then asked, ¡°Are you messing with me? What do you mean, I should find someone else? This is the most critical moment for the company. If you leave, what will happen to me?¡±


    Dong Zi said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Assistant Cheng. We don¡¯t mean to make things difficult for you. But don¡¯t worry, we won¡¯t submit the resignation immediately. It¡¯s just that I think you treated us well, so 1 wanted to tell you in advance. We submitted our resignation application today and will only quit when the replacement comes.¡±


    After hanging up the phone, Cheng She felt a little helpless.


    In the past, when he was scolded, forced to work overtime, and encountered all kinds of problems, he could still persevere. However, when the people he was most familiar with here were about to leave, the walls in his heart seemed to suddenly collapse.


    A sense of powerlessness and loneliness arose spontaneously. This was worse than being scolded by Si Fan.


    If a familiar face was still around, there would be some psychological comfort. Everyone could still work together. However, if the people he knew were no longer around, how could he continue with his life?


    The people from the technical department had submitted their resignation applications. Si Fan would probably find out soon. By then, Cheng She would probably be scolded again.


    Cheng She sighed and looked at his phone. Inexplicably, he searched for Xintao¡¯s recruitment requirements..

 Chapter 348 - Chapter 348: Resolved The Software Issue

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    It said that as long as one had the ability and perseverance, a company would accept you. It could be said that there were no extra requirements. Anyway, he did not know if he could give it a try.


    Cheng She reorganized his thoughts and returned to the company. He planned to resolve this matter with everyone first.


    After thinking about it for a day, they could not think of a solution. The technical department needed to shut down the software first before repairing it. However, Si Fan did not allow this and insisted that they repair it directly. If they did this, however, there was a high chance that other bugs would appear on the website. No one dared to take the risk.


    Anyway, the technical department was going to resign soon. They were just waiting for the newbies to arrive, so they did not worry much about it. They just had to stall for time.


    During this period, Si Fan made a few calls. Other than urging everyone to quickly think of a solution, he also scolded them for being useless.


    Cheng She accepted the scolding in front of the other employees. Although everyone knew that Si Fan had a bad temper and loved to scold people, they did not expect him to fully push the blame on others at a time like this.


    They all felt indignant for Cheng She and felt that they were lucky to have submitted their resignation applications.


    Dong Zi walked over and advised Cheng She, ¡°Assistant Cheng, if there¡¯s really no other way, why don¡¯t you resign too? We¡¯re all planning to go to Xintao to apply for jobs. They said that they¡¯re short of technicians now. Since you¡¯re such a capable man, I¡¯m sure they¡¯ll be willing to take you. There are all kinds of benefits there, while there¡¯s nothing here but overtime and being scolded.¡±


    ¡°Actually, 1 have my reasons for staying. Forget it, you can leave if you want. I don¡¯t deny it¡¯s a good deal.¡± Cheng She was in low spirits and did not want to talk to anyone at all.


    If he could leave, he would have left long ago. However, he knew that Si Fan was capable of harming anybody. If he left, he would probably not be able to see the sun the next day.


    Cheng She stayed cooped up in fear for the entire day. It was not until nighttime that he received some good news.


    ¡°Assistant Cheng, we have a solution for the software!¡±


    Just as Cheng She was in a dilemma, he finally heard some good news.


    ¡°How?¡± Cheng Shi¡¯s eyes lit up and he quickly walked to that person¡¯s side.


    ¡°Uh, actually, it¡¯s not particularly good news for us, but at least the problem has been resolved. Moreover, the responsibility was not on us.¡±


    Cheng She frowned. ¡°If you have something to say, just say it. Don¡¯t keep us in suspense at a time like this.¡±


    ¡°A few phone dealers worked with Xintao to develop software specifically targeting our Blue Fox. It¡¯s equivalent to an anti-virus. As long as we install that anti-virus into our phones, our Blue Fox software will automatically be uninstalled. In addition, Xintao also helped those users whose money was deducted from our software to recover their money. The money deduction was a software bug. They repaired the software and took back the deducted money.¡±


    Cheng She heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the biggest problem had been resolved. It was illegal to deduct money without reason. If the issue could not be resolved, Si Fan would get called by the police. If that were to happen, his life would be even more difficult.


    However, he did not expect Blue Fox to be treated like a virus software. He did not know if Xintao did it on purpose or as a last resort.


    ¡°Does that mean our software cannot be downloaded in the future?¡± Cheng She asked with a frown.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. In the future, our products will no longer be on the market in those mobile app stores. It¡¯s equivalent to cutting off our cooperation with the other phone brands. Because we were the ones who caused the problem first, their actions are not considered a breach of contract. However, you don¡¯t have to worry too much. For now, it¡¯s just the famous phone brands cooperating with Xintao. As for the smaller miscellaneous brands, they still have our software. So as long as we repair the software, there¡¯s still time¡­¡±


    Cheng Shi,¡±¡­¡±


    What kind of good news was this? Was this not equivalent to forcefully removing the software?


    On top of that, they would never have the chance to put it back on the app store in the future. It was better if they had taken it off the shelves and repaired it from the beginning. Then, they could put the app back on the shelves after it was fixed.


    That was it. There was not even a last chance. If Si Fan heard about this, who knew what kind of tantrum he would throw?


    However, the matter was urgent. Although he was afraid of being scolded, Cheng She still picked up his phone and made the call. He was prepared to report to Si Fan, but he tried his best to sugarcoat it.


    ¡°President Si, the problem with our software has been resolved!¡± Cheng She immediately said before Si Fan could speak.


    Hearing Cheng She¡¯s words, Si Fan finally stopped cursing. Instead, he asked in a low voice, ¡°How was it resolved? Will the software be able to be used normally in the future?¡±


    ¡°Uh¡­¡± Cheng She took a deep breath and told Si Fan everything in one breath. He only dared to breathe when he was done.


    He was afraid that he could not finish his words if he got interrupted by Si Fan..

    Hearing his words, Si Fan did not lose his temper at first. Instead, he was silent for a moment before asking, ¡°So, your solution is equivalent to taking our app off the shelves?¡±


    The calm before the storm was often the most terrifying. Cheng She hurriedly explained, ¡°No, President Si, there was too little time for us to solve the problem. After all, Mi Jin is overseeing Xintao. He¡¯s a genius in the computing world, so it makes sense for him to solve the problem faster than us.¡±


    ¡°Did they do anything else?¡± Si Fan asked.


    Cheng She thought about it. Xintao did not seem to be making a big deal out of this, so he said, ¡°I don¡¯t think so. They just helped users and phone dealers solve this problem. They didn¡¯t promote themselves or anything else.¡±


    Si Fan sneered and said, ¡°As expected, women are trash. They didn¡¯t seize such a good opportunity to make a profit and instead just used the chance to mock their opponent. They even foolishly helped others. Since that¡¯s the case, let the technical department take this opportunity to fix the problem asap. Then, spend money to find someone to remove all the posts related to this matter. Issue and apology, send compensation, advertise, make it popular, and then go online again.¡±


    Hearing Si Fan criticizing Yin Xun, Cheng She could not help but complain in his heart. He was still looking down on her at a time like this. Was he not forced to this state by that ¡°trash woman¡±?


    Most importantly, Si Fan had not contributed at all to this whole situation. How could he have the cheek to say such things? Were the employees supposed to handle all these things?


    However, he only dared to think about this internally. He did not have the courage to say it in front of Si Fan.


    It was rare that Si Fan did not scold him this time. Cheng She should have listened to him and quietly dealt with it, but he thought of a problem. He endured the risk of being scolded and asked, ¡°But President Si, I just said that our Blue Fox app can¡¯t be put on the app store anymore. As long as it¡¯s put on the market, it will be treated as a virus by their phone intranet.¡±


    ¡°Is their software that opposes Blue Fox installed directly in the user¡¯s phone?¡± Si Fan asked.


    Cheng She thought for a moment. ¡°I don¡¯t think so. Apparently, it¡¯s in the phone dealer¡¯s main system.¡±


    Si Fan sneered and spat, ¡°Then that¡¯s it. What an idiot. Since it¡¯s not directly in the phones, we just won¡¯t rely on the app store. As long as the advertisement is out and the popularity is in place, there will be users who will download it even on from the webpage. This isn¡¯t a desperate situation. Can¡¯t you think of something yourself?¡±


    However, Cheng She was still a little hesitant. He deliberated and said, ¡°But President Si, this matter has blown up too much. The users might not believe us. Actually, the other problems are fine. The most important thing is that we deducted extra money from them. This looked too much like a scam. I¡¯m afraid they won¡¯t believe us.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t you know how to turn things around?¡± Si Fan was getting more and more impatient. ¡°Users are all people who like to take advantage of others. Can¡¯t you just make some coupons? You can distribute coupons according to the proportion of the user¡¯s losses. The more money the user lost from the app, the greater the coupons they will get, and vice versa.¡±


    ¡°Of course, I¡¯m not asking you to spend real money to make this discount. Don¡¯t we have our own shop? Let our shop display some things that are actually cheap, but won¡¯t raise suspicion even if they sell for a high price. Things like diamonds, jade, and so on. No matter how high the price is, no one will be suspicious. Raise the price and put it on the user¡¯s bill. That way, we won¡¯t lose money. In fact, we can even earn money.¡±


    Si Fan was implying that their platform would continue to cheat users of their money.


    Upon hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, Cheng She wanted to say something but hesitated. Blue Fox¡¯s reputation had already deteriorated after this incident, especially after the previous coupon fiasco. However, Si Fan planned to do it a second time.


    It would be fine if they were not discovered. If it was discovered, Blue Fox would probably have no chance of making a comeback.


    After causing such a huge commotion, was having real coupons that big of a deal? Why did Si Fan have to continue lying?


    Cheng She wanted to persuade Si Fan, but Si Fan did not give him the chance. He instructed him a few more times before hanging up.


    Cheng She had no choice. Since the boss had said so, as an employee, he could only do as he was told.


    While Cheng She was doing things according to Si Fan¡¯s request, Si Fan was not idle either. He finally started to make a move.


    In the circle of rich second-generation heirs like him, Si Fan was the best in terms of looks and figure. After all, he was the male lead of the original novel. The author had given him the best description for his appearance.


    No one in this circle was short of money. Other than young heirs who liked to play with women, there were also flirtatious women also liked to play with men..

 Chapter 350 - Chapter 350: Only The Yin Family Can Do It

    Chapter 350: Only The Yin Family Can Do It


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Because of Si Fan¡¯s perfect looks, he had always been fawned over by these young ladies.


    It was because he was too popular that Yin Mo was targeted by these young ladies in the original novel just so they could take Si Fan from her. Si Fan was also very good at making use of people. He knew that some of these people were not sincere with him, while some loved him and were willing to do anything for him.


    Si Fan had always understood these people¡¯s intentions. He just pretended not to know. He had always pretended to be gentle and polite in front of these people.


    This way, more girls would be loyal to him. However, he did not expect that, even though these women usually looked like they wanted to give him everything, when he really needed something from them, they would start to find all kinds of excuses to refuse.


    Now that his company was in trouble, those who knew the inside story found excuses to stay away from him. As for the few who were not avoiding him, Si Fan decided to make good use of them.


    Recently, he had won over Zhou Meng. Although Zhou Meng had not really invested in him yet, she had promised him that she would help him as long as he got rid of the Yin family.


    One person was not enough. He still needed to pull in more investments. It was impossible to rely on cooperation alone. Everyone could see Blue Fox¡¯s current situation. There were only two outcomes to investing now. One was to lose the investment money, and the other was to help Blue Fox fill the hole. As for whether they could make the investment profitable, no one was sure.


    Everyone was waiting for Blue Fox to fall so that they could buy its shares and take the company for themselves.


    Si Fan would not give others this chance. In order to keep Blue Fox, he would find investments even if he had to risk his life.


    Hence, he set his sights on the Wang family. Wang Ran was the only child in the Wang family. He usually listened to her and doted on her.


    Although the Wang family was not a rich family, they had a wide network of connections and people in the bureaucracy. Moreover, Wang Ran was also a romantic. Other than her ordinary looks and figure, she had almost no flaws.


    Wang Ran had always desired him, but Si Fan despised Wang Ran¡¯s looks and pretended not to understand Wang Ran¡¯s feelings. He usually treated Wang Ran as nothing but an ordinary friend.


    In the past, he was surrounded by too many women and had never considered being with Wang Ran. He did not expect that he would have to give himself to Wang Ran for the sake of Blue Fox.


    Looking at Wang Ran lying in his arms, Si Fan¡¯s eyes were filled with undisguised disgust.


    ¡°Ranran, look, we¡¯re already together now. Then about your investment¡­¡± Si Fan hugged Wang Ran and did not move. Fortunately, Wang Ran could not see his expression now.


    Wang Ran never thought that she would really get together with Si Fan. She hugged Si Fan tightly and her hands kept touching Si Fan¡¯s body. She tried her best to keep the sensation of being with Si Fan in her heart.


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, the corners of her lips curled up slightly as she said coquettishly, ¡°Fan, why did you bring up the matter of investing right after doing it with me? Could it be that you¡¯re only with me for money?¡±


    ¡°Of course not,¡± Si Fan quickly explained. ¡°I¡¯ve had my eyes on you since a long time ago, but because of Yin Mo¡¯s identity, I couldn¡¯t tell you. Now, 1 finally have you.¡±


    As Si Fan spoke, he hugged Wang Ran tightly.


    Wang Ran broke free from Si Fan¡¯s embrace and slowly sat up. The thin blanket slipped from her body, revealing her smooth skin.


    Although she was not good-looking, her skin was divine, just like peeled egg white. It was smooth, white, and flawless. This was one of the reasons why Si Fan could tolerate her.


    ¡°What about Yin Mo? You haven¡¯t broken up with her. Are you planning to be two-timing in the future?¡± Wang Ran stared into Si Fan¡¯s eyes and asked.


    However, Wang Ran did not seem to have any intention of letting Si Fan answer this question. She smiled lightly and then leaned back into Si Fan¡¯s body again. She leaned close to Si Fan¡¯s ear and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t we make a deal? It just so happens that the Wang family has a project that needs to collaborate with a construction company. The Yin family can be considered to be in the front seat in the construction industry. Why don¡¯t you help me with this and pull some strings for the two families?¡±


    After saying that, she took the opportunity to gently blow a breath beside Si Fan¡¯s ear.


    Si Fan held Wang Ran with one hand. He did not expect Wang Ran to be so good at seducing people despite her ordinary appearance.


    However, now that the two of them were discussing serious matters, Si Fan would not let his sexual desires get the better of him.


    He stopped Wang Ran¡¯s actions. His deep voice was a little hoarse as he asked, ¡°Since it¡¯s a collaboration issue, wouldn¡¯t it be better for you guys to discuss it with the Yin family directly? Why do you still need my help? Moreover, I¡¯m sure you know about my relationship with the Yin family now.¡±


    Wang Ran smiled and said, ¡°There are some small problems with this project. Only the Yin family can take over.. Besides, who doesn¡¯t know about Yin Mo¡¯s feelings for you?¡±

 Chapter 351 - Chapter 351: Let Yin Mo Handle It

    Chapter 351: Let Yin Mo Handle It


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Is there a problem?¡± Si Fan frowned slightly. ¡°No wonder you haven¡¯t looked for other construction companies. The Yin family isn¡¯t stupid. If there¡¯s a problem, they won¡¯t cooperate with you. Even if Yin Mo goes to talk to them, with her current status in the Yin family, she won¡¯t be able to move them.¡±


    Si Fan¡¯s words were not an evasion. Right now, the entire Yin family was on guard against Yin Mo. They all knew that as long as Si Fan said a word, she would do anything. In addition, she had made so many mistakes in the past, so they would not let her anywhere close to business dealings.


    Wang Ran was in the same circle as them. They were usually together, so she knew all about Yin Mo.


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, she was not surprised at all. Instead, she smiled and said, ¡°Since we¡¯re friends, we know about Yin Mo¡¯s matter. Of course, we don¡¯t need her to persuade her father. Instead, we just need to use her as a middleman to cause some trouble for the Yin family and make a distraction.


    ¡°Then, we¡¯ll use this opportunity to steal the blueprints. 1 heard that the Yin family has recently collaborated with a five-star hotel. This blueprint must be very important, so we¡¯ll use it to threaten them. If they don¡¯t cooperate with us, then we¡¯ll sell the blueprints to other construction companies. 1 believe that the competitors of that hotel will want this very much.¡±


    Si Fan did not expect Wang Ran to come up with such an idea. This seemed to be different from the Wang Ran he knew. In his impression, Wang Ran had always been gentle, considerate, and understanding.


    Seeing Wang Ran¡¯s scheming look, his face darkened again.


    ¡°This kind of thing is illegal. Aren¡¯t you afraid of getting into trouble?¡± Si Fan lowered his eyes and asked Wang Ran.


    Wang Ran lay on Si Fan¡¯s body and said with a smile, ¡°That¡¯s why 1 need Yin Mo¡¯s help. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll give you a way to guarantee that you won¡¯t be implicated. This is a win-win situation for us. How about it? This deal is pretty decent, right?¡±


    ¡°Deal.¡± Si Fan finally smiled.


    Si Fan and Wang Ran spent another day together. They only separated at night.


    When he returned home, Yin Mo was lying on the bed fiddling with her phone.


    Seeing that Si Fan had returned, she immediately smiled and stood up to welcome him. She walked to Si Fan and tried to hug him.


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo. Although her face was beautiful, much more beautiful than Wang Ran¡¯s, he still felt a little tired of looking at her every day. At this moment, he still wanted Wang Ran to be by his side.


    He touched his lips. There seemed to be a lingering taste and warmth on them.


    ¡°Fan, what took you so long? I haven¡¯t been able to contact you lately,¡± Yin Mo said, feeling aggrieved.


    Hearing Yin Mo¡¯s words, a sense of annoyance rose in Si Fan¡¯s heart. Other than circling around him every day, Yin Mo did nothing to help at all. If not for the fact that she was a member of the Yin family, Si Fan really wanted to kick her away at this moment.


    However, when he thought of the conditions he had set with Wang Ran, he took a deep breath and flashed a smile. Then, he hugged Yin Mo and pretended to be intimate. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mo¡¯er. Recently, the company has encountered too many problems. I really can¡¯t leave. I didn¡¯t mean to be cold to you. It¡¯s all your sister¡¯s fault. She went against me in everyway. Today, she almost forced Blue Fox into a corner. Fortunately, I managed to resolve it.¡±


    At this point, Si Fan¡¯s expression suddenly turned ugly. Even though he tried his best to maintain his smile, he could not smile when he thought of Yin Xun.


    Yin Mo frowned and asked, ¡°Fan, did my sister make you angry again? What did she do?¡±


    Si Fan gritted his teeth and said, ¡°Blue Fox has just gone online with its app. We just had a small problem. Your sister actually spent money to hire a ghostwriter to make a big fuss about it. She said that Blue Fox is a scammer company and even labeled me as a scammer. This caused the mobile app stores to say that they would never work with Blue Fox again. It¡¯s not easy for me to begin with. Now that she¡¯s targeting me like this, it¡¯ll be even harder for me to proceed in the future.¡±


    Yin Mo never doubted Si Fan¡¯s words.


    Her heart ached as she hugged Si Fan and comforted him. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Fan. It¡¯s all my fault for not persuading Sister well. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely help you tell Sister not to target you anymore.¡±


    Si Fan held Yin Mo tightly in his arms. Now that Yin Mo could not see his expression, he instantly showed a vicious look.


    A cold smile appeared on his lips, but his tone was extremely gentle..

 Chapter 352 - Chapter 352: The Butler In The Rain

    352  The Butler In The Rain


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, I originally wanted to get engaged to you after Blue Fox stabilized, but all my plans have been disrupted by your sister. Now that I¡¯ve lost a lot of money with Blue Fox, I can¡¯t take good care of you anymore. Why don¡¯t you go back to the Yin family instead of staying with me? You¡¯ll only suffer if you follow me. You¡¯re the person I love the most. How can I bear to let you suffer?¡±


    When Yin Mo heard that Si Fan was asking her to leave, she immediately panicked. ¡°No, Fan, whether you have money or not, I¡¯ll follow you. I¡¯ve decided on you. No one can separate us. You¡¯re so good to me. How can I leave when you¡¯re at your lowest? I¡¯ll do whatever you need me to do. As long as I can do it, I¡¯ll definitely help you!¡±


    This was what Si Fan had been waiting for. Si Fan sighed and said, ¡°Your sister has placed all her focus on me now. If you want me to make a comeback, you have to divert her attention first. Mo¡¯er, are you willing to help me?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded without hesitation. ¡°Yes, Fan. No matter what you want me to do, I¡¯ll help you!¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡± Si Fan finally smiled. He leaned over and whispered into Yin Mo¡¯s ear, ¡°I heard that Donggang Modern City has been a little chaotic recently. Why don¡¯t you help me there¡­¡±


    At this moment, it was getting dark outside. It was probably about to rain, and it was nighttime, so it was exceptionally dark.


    Suddenly, the outside world lit up for a moment. There was a clap of thunder, and then it began to rain.


    Yin Xun had just returned from the company. Because of the software problem, she had gone to several companies to discuss a collaboration. She had been busy for the entire day and was so tired that she did not even want to eat. She planned to go back and wash up and sleep.


    Just as she arrived at the entrance of the residential district, it started to rain.


    She rolled down the window a little. Since there was no wind, the rain would not fall into the car. Smelling the moist soil and the fragrance of vegetation in the air, her exhaustion was instantly swept away.


    Yin Xun¡¯s originally muddled mind became clear. She opened the window slowly, planning to experience the peaceful and refreshing moment for a while longer.


    After driving for a while, she suddenly saw the butler walking in the rain alone. He did not even take an umbrella with him and was drenched in the rain.


    When Yin Xun saw this, she quickly drove to his side and stopped the car. She asked, ¡°Uncle Butler, why didn¡¯t you bring an umbrella? Hurry up and get in the car. I¡¯ll drive you back.¡±


    The butler looked at his wet clothes and was a little embarrassed as he said, ¡°Thank you, Miss Yin, but there is no need. Look, I¡¯m already wet, and I am even carrying things. What if I dirty your car? Anyway, we are about to reach home. It is fine.¡±


    Seeing that the butler had no intention of getting into the car, Yin Xun drove slowly beside the butler and said, ¡°Uncle Butler, there¡¯s still some distance from the villa. You¡¯re pretty old, so you have to be careful not to catch a cold from the rain. Besides, aren¡¯t cars used to make it convenient for people? If it gets wet, I can just wait for it to dry. Come in quickly. We can go back together.¡±


    The butler stopped in his tracks and wanted to say something, but Yin Xun had already opened the car door.


    ¡°But the groceries I bought today aren¡¯t very good¡­¡± The butler still wanted to refuse, but Yin Xun did not give him the chance. She got out of the car and pushed the butler into the car.


    ¡°What does getting in the car have to do with food?¡± Yin Xun thought that the butler was just embarrassed to trouble her.


    Actually, Yin Xun knew what the butler was thinking. Although the two of them usually chatted and laughed and seemed to have a good relationship, to well-trained butlers like them, both the master¡¯s friends and families are considered his superiors. He could not be on the same level as the master¡¯s friend.


    To put it another way, this was the responsibility of a butler.


    There were many rules. Yin Xun did not care about them, however. Those who treated her well were all friends.


    Moreover, the butler treated her so well. If she ignored him over such a small matter and caused him to fall sick in the end, it would not be worth it.


    Hence, she chose to ignore the butler¡¯s words.


    When she sat back in the car, she realized that something was wrong.


    She took a sniff. Why was there a stench in the car? The stench was disgusting enough to make her want to throw up. However, since the butler was right behind her, it was rude to do so, so she had to endure it.


    She held the nausea in. Unexpectedly, the butler could not hold it in and retched before her.


    Yin Xun turned around in confusion and saw the butler smiling sheepishly.

 Chapter 353 - Chapter 353: Go Shopping Together

    Chapter 353: Go Shopping Together


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    He explained, ¡°Miss Yin, you¡­didn¡¯t let me finish my sentence before pushing me into the car. I bought a can of herring. I opened it a little to check. Once this thing is opened, there is no way to seal it back, so¡­why don¡¯t I just go down?¡±


    Only then did Yin Xun realize that the butler was not just being polite. There was really a problem with the groceries he bought.


    The butler explained as he retched. Yin Xun helplessly looked at the bag in the butler¡¯s hand and tried her best to suppress the urge to vomit.


    ¡°It¡¯s alright. It¡¯s just a little stench. It¡¯s nothing. I¡¯ll just air the car out when we get back.¡± She had already let the butler come in, so how could she let him go down again?


    However, Yin Xun was puzzled and asked, ¡°Why did you suddenly think of buying canned herring?¡±


    She had only heard of this food before, but she had never experienced it herself. She did not expect it to be even more pungent than durian.


    At the very least, durians still had a hint of sweetness and fragrance in the stench, but this one only had the stench of something rotting.


    The butler replied, ¡°I¡¯ve been researching a new recipe recently, so 1 bought some new ingredients to try.¡±


    Yin Xun gave the butler a thumbs up in the rearview mirror. How amazing. Fang Yao had so many high-grade ingredients at home that the butler did not use. He instead wanted to use this smelly thing to cook.


    With the two of them non-stop retching, they finally arrived at Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    ¡°Miss Yin, why don¡¯t you eat at our place tonight? You can try my new dish. It can also be considered as thanking you for giving me a ride. What do you think?¡± The butler invited Yin Xun warmly.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need. I¡¯ll go back and eat. Hurry up and go in. It won¡¯t be good if you get sick.¡± After Yin Xun said that, she left directly.


    The butler stood at the door and watched Yin Xun leave with a hint of unwillingness on his face.


    A moment later, Fang Yao took an umbrella and walked to the butler¡¯s side. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to really head out.¡±


    The butler sighed and said, ¡°All, I pity my old bones. I thought that I could use the ruse of self-pity to trick Miss Yin Xun to come over for a meal. I did not expect that she would still refuse. Young Master, do you really not worry about that contract?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it,¡± Fang Yao said lightly.


    With Fang Yao¡¯s assurance, the butler was relieved. He patted his chest and said, ¡°Young Master, don¡¯t worry. This is the first time a girl has caught your fancy in so many years. That girl is outstanding. I¡¯ll definitely help you.¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about this. You should hurry back and change and take a shower. Otherwise, you¡¯ll really fall sick,¡± Fang Yao said concernedly.


    The butler smiled and raised his arm to let Fang Yao touch it. ¡°This shirt is waterproof.¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    Why had he never realized before that the butler was so childish?


    Yin Xun drove back home. Although the butler had already gone down with his groceries and she had even opened the car window, the smell still did not dissipate. It was as if there was something rotten in front of her nose, making her want to cry.


    She quickly drove the car to the garage, and then she ran away.


    When she went into her house, she was surprised that Liu Ying did not come to cook today. It was fine if she did not come, but she should have at least told her.


    Yin Xun looked at her phone and was relieved to see that there were no missed calls.


    After taking a shower and doing some skincare, she thought about not eating dinner. However, after preparing for bed, her stomach suddenly growled. She had no choice but to make something to eat.


    Yin Xun opened the fridge and looked at the ingredients inside. Thinking of her miserable culinary skills, she immediately gave up on cooking. She casually picked up a box of instant noodles and planned to eat that.


    After boiling the water, she sat at the side and waited for the noodles to cook. Suddenly, her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was an unknown number.


    Puzzled, Yin Xun answered the call.


    ¡°Sister-in-law, it¡¯s me!¡± Qu Lin¡¯s happy voice came from the phone.


    ¡°Qu Lin?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s me. You didn¡¯t expect me, right?¡± Qu Lin smiled and said, ¡°Sister-in-law, are you free tomorrow? How about we go shopping together?¡±


    Hearing Qu Lin call her ¡°sister-in-law¡±, Yin Xun immediately understood what was going on. Qu Lin must have deliberately called her that in order to challenge Qu Lu.


    However, nothing happened between her and Fang Yao. Thinking of the contract, Yin Xun quickly said, ¡°I¡¯m not your sister-in-law. Don¡¯t call me that.¡±


    If Lin Chan found out about this, Yin Xun would have to pay her!

 Chapter 354 - Chapter 354: Another Injustice

    Chapter 354: Another Injustice


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, Qu Lin did not know what was going on. She only knew that Fang Yao did not really like Qu Lu, but he treated Yin Xun differently. Furthermore, Qu Lu regarded Yin Xun as her love rival. Naturally, she thought that Yin Xun would marry Fang Yao in the future.


    ¡°Ah, what¡¯s there to be embarrassed about? The two of you like each other. It¡¯s not something that some people who only flatter themselves can interfere with.¡± Qu Lin said indifferently.


    Yin Xun wanted to refuse, but on second thought, she thought this a good opportunity to reel in Qu Lin. As long as Qu Lin let down her guard, Yin Xun could pull her in to invest.


    Fortunately, the matter with Xintao had basically been resolved. She originally wanted to continue delivering packages tomorrow, but if Qu Lin came over, she would spend a day to play with her and improve their relationship.


    Another sugar parent had appeared. Yin Xun thought that she had to seize the opportunity.


    ¡°Sister-in-law?¡± Qu Lin saw that Yin Xun did not speak for a long time and called out in confusion.


    ¡°I¡¯m here¡­ Ah, no, don¡¯t call me sister-in-law. It makes me sound old. Just call me by my name. I happen to have some time tomorrow. Do you want to go shopping? I¡¯ll accompany you.¡± Yin Xun knew that with Qu Lin¡¯s temperament, she would not listen to anything unless the reason was convincing enough.


    As expected, Qu Lin changed tack quickly. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll call you Yin Xun. In that case, it¡¯s settled. Wait for me at home tomorrow. I¡¯ll go look for you.¡±


    ¡°You know where I live?¡± Yin Xun was stunned.


    Qu Lin smiled. ¡°Aren¡¯t you staying with Brother? How could you not know? Besides, I know everything that Qu Lu knows.¡±


    These words had a deeper meaning. After hanging up, Yin Xun could feel it in her heart.


    She had a feeling that the relationship between Qu Lin and Qu Lu was very unique. They were not like ordinary sisters who had simple conflicts. It was as if they were enemies who had a deep hatred for each other.


    The rain became heavier and heavier, finally turning into a downpour.


    This kind of setting seemed to be very suitable for doing some secret things without being discovered. The rain seemed to want to swallow everything. Without knowing if anything happened in the darkness, the night passed just like that.


    The next morning, Yin Xun was woken up by the urgent ringing of the doorbell. She opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the time. It was only six o¡¯clock. Usually, she slept until eight o¡¯clock.


    Yin Xun was still half-asleep and felt inexplicably frustrated. She sat on the bed and tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart. Listening to the deafening doorbell downstairs, it seemed like whoever it was would not stop until she went out.


    She had no choice but to force herself to wake up. Then, she went downstairs to open the door in a daze.


    Although there were bodyguards at home, they usually did nothing except protect her. Something like opening the door was out of the question. Of course, in Shu Yi¡¯s words, professional bodyguards tried their best not to show themselves in front of others, or it would be detrimental to their protection.


    Yin Xun glanced at the doorbell. It was Qu Lin.


    She did not expect Qu Lin to be so energetic and come so early.


    Yin Xun took a deep breath and tried her best to adjust her expression. Then, she smiled appropriately before opening the door.


    As soon as the door was opened, a cool breeze blew in. Yin Xun was wearing silk pajamas and shivered from the wind. Although it was summer, it had rained all night, so the morning was very cool.


    ¡°Hello, Yin Xun. Good morning!¡± As soon as the door opened, Qu Lin pounced on Yin Xun and gave her a big hug.


    Qu Lin was so enthusiastic that Yin Xun was shocked. Fortunately, she quickly let go and walked inside. Qu Lin began to look around the living room.


    ¡°Do you mind if I take a look?¡± Qu Lin asked.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Sure, but I just woke up and haven¡¯t cleaned up the house yet.¡±


    In any case, there was nothing in the house. No matter how chaotic it was, it could not be too bad. Yin Xun was not worried about this.


    Qu Lin only took a few glances and finally came to a conclusion. ¡°You¡¯re the boss of Xintao and the eldest daughter of the Yin family. Don¡¯t you feel uncomfortable living in such a small villa?¡±


    Yin Xun had always thought that her house was very big, so she was surprised to see it appraised lowly by Qu Lin.


    She shook her head helplessly. ¡°The house is just a place to live. It doesn¡¯t matter how big or small it is. As long as it¡¯s comfortable.¡±


    ¡°Good point.¡± Qu Lin nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯ve heard about Xintao recently. It¡¯s amazing that you defeated Blue Fox, which has been developing for so many years. Xintao is now a popular app. Unfortunately, not every phone can download it. When my sisters heard that my sister-in-law is the founder of Xintao, they were very interested in you..¡±

 Chapter 355 - Chapter 355: Fang Yao Doesnt Like Them

    Chapter 355: Fang Yao Doesn¡¯t Like Them


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    With Qu Lin¡¯s personality, it was obvious that she had been pampered since she was young. When she came to Yin Xun¡¯s house, she showed no reservation at all. She sat down like the owner of the place and took a strawberry on the table to munch on.


    She was actually interested in Xintao. Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up when she heard this. She looked at Qu Lin expectantly and asked, ¡°Then do you know that Xintao is currently looking for investors?¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t. What¡¯s wrong?¡± Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°You¡¯re not thinking of making me invest, are you?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded.


    Qu Lin shook her head and said, ¡°1 don¡¯t have a say in this. You have to discuss it with my father. My father has been paying attention to this matter. In fact, he¡¯s more inclined to Blue Fox now because Si Fan can¡¯t hang on for much longer. He hopes to directly buy Blue Fox over. Although Blue Fox has been going downhill because of Xintao recently, from a long-term perspective, buying Blue Fox is more lucrative than investing in Xintao.¡±


    When it came to business, Qu Lin immediately became serious.


    After explaining her reasons, Qu Lin must have realized that she was being too serious. A smile immediately appeared on her lips as she looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°You agreed to shop with me. Don¡¯t tell me you only want investments from me? If I don¡¯t invest, will you chase me out of the house?¡±


    Qu Lin¡¯s rejection was very blunt. Yin Xun liked this kind of directness.


    ¡°Of course not.¡± Yin Xun thought to herself that investment had to be done step by step. She could not rush it. If she could pull Fang Yao over, she did not believe she could not do the same for his ¡°sister¡±.


    Yin Xun tidied up and left in Qu Lin¡¯s car.


    When they passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, Qu Lin patted Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Don¡¯t you have to inform Brother?¡±


    As he spoke, Yin Xun turned around and saw Fang Yao watering the flowers in the courtyard.


    Yin Xun was speechless. No wonder she felt that Fang Yao¡¯s flowers died especially quickly. She had already chosen low-maintenance flowers for Fang Yao. They were the easiest to raise.


    Now she knew the reason. It turned out that he had watered the flowers to death.


    Qu Lin had apparently instructed the driver to stop the car when they arrived at Fang Yao¡¯s house. Before Yin Xun and Qu Lin could say anything, the driver had already stopped the car.


    Qu Lin said teasingly, ¡°Hurry up and say hello to Brother.¡±


    Fang Yao heard movement at the door. He held the watering can in his hand and looked up.


    ¡°Maybe you don¡¯t have to water the flowers for the time being?¡± Yin Xun rolled down the window and pointed at the sky. ¡°Didn¡¯t it rain last night?¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°1 see. 1 won¡¯t water it then.¡±


    He spotted Qu Lin sitting beside Yin Xun. He narrowed his eyes and called out indifferently, ¡°Qu Lin.¡±


    ¡°Hey, Brother Fang Yao, I¡¯m here to see Sister-in-law. She said that she has nothing to wear, so I¡¯ll accompany her to buy clothes!¡± Qu Lin greeted Fang Yao with a smile and sold Yin Xun out.


    Yin Xun,¡±?¡±


    ¡®When did 1 ever say that?¡¯


    Fang Yao immediately saw through Qu Lin¡¯s true motive for coming. Originally, he wanted to give Qu Lin a warning, but when he heard Qu Lin call Yin Xun ¡°Sister-in-law¡± and how Yin Xun did not object, he was instantly delighted.


    ¡°Be mindful of your limits,¡± Fang Yao said in the end.


    Qu Lin smiled and said, ¡°Okay!¡±


    Yin Xun was confused by their exchange of words. What did they mean?


    She thought that Qu Lin and Fang Yao would say a few more words, but to her surprise, the car simply drove away.


    What did the two of them mean just now? What did they mean by being mindful? However, although she was curious, this was a matter between Fang Yao and Qu Lin, so she did not ask.


    ¡°That¡¯s strange. In the past, Brother was never interested in these things. He wouldn¡¯t even touch them. Why has he become like Grandpa now and even started to raise flowers himself?¡±


    Yin Xun heard Qu Lin muttering to herself.


    ¡°What did you say? What is your brother not interested in?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously.


    Qu Lin looked at her and said, ¡°Flowers and plants. My brother never raised these things in the past. He didn¡¯t know how to raise them and never even liked them. In the past, someone once gave him a pot of cactus. 1 don¡¯t know what he did, but it died in a few days.¡±


    Fang Yao did not like plants? Yin Xun thought back to when she asked him what gift he wanted. He clearly said that it was flowers. If he did not like them, why did he ask her for flowers?


    Moreover, after she gave him so many green plants, he said that they were very good and looked very happy each time.


    Just as she was starting to feel puzzled, she heard Qu Lin continue, ¡°Just now, when 1 went to Brother¡¯s house, I found that there were many green plants in all his rooms, just like a botanical garden. I wanted to touch them, but he stopped me. He clearly didn¡¯t like these things in the past, but now he treats them like his treasures. It¡¯s not like him at all..¡±

    Chapter 356: Weird Gifts


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun did not explain that he was the one who gave it to Fang Yao. Instead, she asked Qu Lin, ¡°Then what does he like?¡±


    If Fang Yao really did not like plants and she gave him so many, would that not mean she was going about the wrong way to please him? No¡­ Since Qu Lin knew about Fang Yao, she had to ask her everything she knew. This way, she would know what to do in the future.


    Qu Lin shook her head. ¡°1 don¡¯t know. Brother and I grew up together. But I¡¯ve never seen what he likes to do¡­¡± Qu Lin frowned. After thinking about it, she still could not figure it out, so she said to Yin Xun, ¡°Forget it. He likes you so much. 1 think he will like anything you give him.¡±


    Seeing that Qu Lin had misunderstood her relationship with Fang Yao, Yin Xun felt that it was necessary to clarify this matter. After all, when she thought of the contract¡­ It would be fine if there were no restrictions, but with that contract, there was real money involved. She could not let so much money go down the drain over such a small matter.


    ¡°I have nothing to do with Fang Yao. We¡¯re just friends,¡± Yin Xun explained again.


    However, Qu Lin did not intend to listen to her explanation and completely ignored it. She went to Yin Xun¡¯s side and asked, ¡°Yin Xun, did you and Brother give each other gifts before?¡±


    ¡°Gifts?¡± Yin Xun thought for a moment. That was too much. She nodded and said, ¡°Yes, quite a few.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Qu Lin¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. As long as she gave him gifts, it meant that there was a chance. She quickly asked, ¡°Then what did you give him? Can you tell me? Of course, if this is a secret between the two of you, then you don¡¯t have to say.¡±


    She thought their gifts must be very romantic.


    After all, the two of them had a good impression of each other and were neighbors who saw each other every day. Qu Lin held her cheeks with both hands and fell into a beautiful and romantic fantasy.


    Yin Xun did not know what was going on in the girl¡¯s mind. Seeing that she had suddenly become starry-eyed and looked intoxicated, she could not help but feel puzzled. She did not know what was wrong with Qu Lin.


    ¡°1 gave him a lot of stuff. It¡¯s in the house and in the courtyard.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Wow, 1 knew that the two of you would give a lot of gifts. In the courtyard¡­ What?¡± Qu Lin finally reacted. She looked at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°What¡¯s in the courtyard?¡±


    When she thought about how there was nothing else in Fang Yao¡¯s courtyard except for the flowers and plants, a bad feeling rose in her heart.


    Yin Xun said calmly, ¡°Green plants. 1 gave him those plants and the birds in the house.¡± ¡°¡­Then what did he give you?¡± Qu Lin suppressed the surprise in her heart. She thought that a girl could give a boy anything and get away with it, but Fang Yao¡¯s gift to Yin Xun must be very valuable. Even if it was not particularly romantic, it must be at least valuable.


    ¡°A tortoise,¡± Yin Xun said honestly.


    The little turtle started to look quite cute after she saw it for a long time. Moreover, as long as she cleaned the pool diligently and remembered to feed it, it was not difficult at all to maintain. When she had nothing to do, she could even turn it over to watch it spin. Now, she was quite fond of this little turtle.


    She even wanted to buy a companion for the turtle when it grew up. Otherwise, it would be too lonely.


    However, Qu Lin could not understand what she was thinking at this moment. She stared at Yin Xun in disbelief and said, ¡°So, one of you is crazy enough to gift plants and birds, and the other gave a tortoise as a gift? Are turtles symbols of love for you?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not a love token. It¡¯s just an ordinary gift,¡± Yin Xun quickly explained.


    ¡°No way, no way. How long will it take for the two of you to get together? I have to help you. 1 can¡¯t let Qu Lu get away with this. Otherwise, I¡¯ll be finished¡­¡± Qu Lin muttered to herself softly. Yin Xun did not hear what she said clearly. She could only vaguely catch a few words. It seemed that Qu Lu¡¯s name was also mentioned.


    However, she understood what Qu Lin meant. She wanted to matchmake her with Fang Yao, even if Qu Lu was the Fang family¡¯s acknowledged fiancee.


    Qu Lu and Qu Lin seemed to have some conflicting interests with the Fang family¡¯s fiancee. Otherwise, Yin Xun could not figure out why the two of them would also get Fang Yao involved.


    Judging from Fang Yao¡¯s reaction to Qu Lu, Yin Xun was certain that Fang Yao did not like Qu Lu.


    As for Qu Lin, she seemed to be very familiar with Fang Yao, but from Fang Yao¡¯s expression just now, he did not seem to be that close to Qu Lin either.


    Yin Xun was finally dragged into the battle between the two sisters. She had to figure this out so that she could extract herself from the inexplicable battle..

 Chapter 357 - Chapter 357: Something Bad Has Happened

    Chapter 357: Something Bad Has Happened


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    She recalled Qu Lin¡¯s reaction when she first met her. At that time, Qu Lin only treated her as her savior and was not this enthusiastic. She only became more enthusiastic after knowing that Yin Xun knew Fang Yao.


    There was something wrong. There had to be something wrong.


    Although she was puzzled, Yin Xun knew that it was useless even if she asked. Qu Lin would not spill the beans, so Yin Xun could only slowly investigate.


    Both of them went shopping with their own thoughts.


    When they arrived at the mall, Qu Lin said to Yin Xun, ¡°You two are so slow-witted. Looks like I have to help you.¡±


    Without giving Yin Xun a chance to refuse, Qu Lin pulled her to the jewelry store.


    As expected of the daughter of a rich family, she asked for the most expensive watch. The shop assistant showed them a watch that was a limited edition; it cost eight hundred thousand yuan.


    Although it was easy for Yin Xun to fork out this money, she felt that there was no need to buy such an expensive watch.


    On top of that, this watch was probably just an ordinary thing to Fang Yao. She had seen the watch Fang Yao wore. That brand was designed by a top foreign designer. There was only one of its kind in the world, and it was much more valuable than this watch.


    Even if she gave this watch to Fang Yao, he would not wear it. It was better to give him something practical.


    However, Qu Lin seemed to be determined to make her buy this watch. She kept looking at her, indicating for her to say something.


    Yin Xun did not want to appear too stingy in front of Qu Lin, but she did not want to waste money. She had just left the house today and would be buying such an expensive item. No matter how she thought about it, her heart ached.


    ¡°This won t do. Let¡¯s¡­¡± Yin Xun deliberated over her words and wanted to refuse. However, before she could finish, a phone call saved her.


    She quickly took out her phone and signaled to Qu Lin that she was taking a call. Then, she walked out of the shop before answering.


    It was from Yu Tu.


    ¡°President Yin, something bad has happened in Donggang City!¡± Yin Xun had just pressed the answer button when she heard Yu Tu¡¯s flustered voice.


    Yin Xun¡¯s pupils suddenly dilated. She had been busy with Xintao recently and had not gone to Donggang City to take a look. She had always thought that things would be fine once they were on the right track and that she would not need to worry.


    After hearing from Yu Tu, Yin Xun walked back into the store and apologized to Qu Lin. ¡®Tin sorry, Qu Lin. I can¡¯t continue shopping with you today. Something happened at the company, so I have to go back and settle it.¡±


    ¡°Something happened at the company?¡± Qu Lin instantly became serious. ¡°Is it serious? Can I go with you? If getting there is troublesome, I¡¯ll get the driver to send you there first. Business is more important. Don¡¯t delay it.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That would be great. If you want to go, you can come with me. Someone came to our construction site and injured a few workers.¡±


    ¡°Do we need to call the police?¡± Qu Lin asked.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°Let¡¯s go over and take a look first.¡±


    The two of them quickly got into the car and began to rush to Donggang Modern City.


    Yu Tu said that earlier this morning, the construction site had been normal. Everyone was working hard as usual. Sometime in the morning, more than ten people suddenly arrived, holding iron rods in their hands and brandishing them They said that they were the bosses of the area and had run out of money recently. They demanded money since such a big construction site must be very rich. They said they would not cause trouble as long as they were paid, and that everything would be fine. They promised to leave immediately.


    Even so, who would give them the money? That was their hard-earned money. They needed the money to support their families.


    Yu Tu did not have the right to get the company involved, so he tried to get someone to chase those hooligans out.


    At first, everyone thought those hooligans were just bluffing and came to scare people. After all, this was a lawful society. Whoever dared to attack others would definitely go to jail. However, they did not expect those hooligans to actually dare to attack. Although they did not kill them or injure any employees, they kept causing trouble, causing the workers to be unable to continue working.


    Yu Tu originally wanted to call the police, but the hooligans said in advance that they had a backer. If they dared to call the police, they would be able to deal with Yin Xun as well.


    The fact that they knew the boss was Yin Xun and had even revealed some of Yin Xun¡¯s private matters, it was clear that their position was not ordinary. After all, common thugs would not be able to come into contact with someone of Yin Xun¡¯s level.


    He had no choice. Yu Tu did not dare to make a decision, so he could only seek help from Yin Xun.


    Those thugs told them not to call the police, but they allowed him to call Yin Xun.


    It was such a blatant threat. It seemed like there was someone backing them up. Could it be Si Fan?


    Yin Xun quickly rejected the idea. It could not be Si Fan. No matter how despicable he was, he would not use such a flashy method to take revenge.


    Si Fan was vicious and would definitely use more underhanded methods..

    Chapter 358: You¡¯re Quite Skilled


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Yin Xun and Qu Lin rushed to the construction site of Donggang City, they saw the thugs who were confronting the workers. They each held an iron rod and stood there arrogantly with a hand on their hips.


    They saw Yin Xun coming over and turned around.


    The leader clicked his tongue and sized up Yin Xun and Qu Lin. He spat on the ground and asked, ¡°Which one of you is Yin Xun?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at him and said indifferently, ¡°1 am. Why are you looking for me?¡±


    ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect you to come alone. You didn¡¯t find any help. 1 thought you would find more people.¡± The thug looked behind Yin Xun. Seeing that no one else was following her, he was instantly amused.


    Initially, he was still cautious. What if Yin Xun brought people over? Now that he saw Yin Xun coming alone, there was no need to be afraid.


    When Qu Lin heard the thug¡¯s words, she said coldly, ¡°What? Am 1 not human? Are you blind? You can¡¯t even see an adult like me.¡±


    As soon as she finished speaking, the scene fell silent. Only cicadas could be heard chirping.


    After a long time, the thug finally reacted. He pointed at Qu Lin and asked angrily, ¡°Who are you? How dare you be rude to me!¡±


    Yin Xun held her phone tightly in her hand. Before she came, she had already informed the bodyguards to come over. According to the route they took, they would probably arrive soon.


    However, she could not anger the thugs now. She had to fight with wits, not just brute force.


    ¡°Qu Lin, don¡¯t say anything.¡± Yin Xun reached out and pressed Qu Lin down, signaling her to be quiet. At the same time, she gave Yu Tu a look.


    Yu Tu immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. He took advantage of everyone¡¯s attention on Qu Lin and quietly returned to the office.


    No one noticed that Yu Tu had disappeared. Everyone looked at Qu Lin in surprise.


    Even a fool could tell what was going on. These thugs were here to cause trouble, and they were armed and dared to use violence.


    Even the workers who were used to rough work did not dare to provoke them. Qu Lin, a young lady, actually dared to scold that leader directly.


    Facing the thug¡¯s exasperated gaze, Yin Xun shielded Qu Lin behind her.


    ¡°If you provoke him again, 1 won¡¯t be able to protect you. I¡¯m not a hero from a television drama. 1 don¡¯t know how to fight,¡± Yin Xun warned Qu Lin in a low voice.


    In the end, Qu Lin only smiled at her. Then, she walked in front of Yin Xun and continued to curse the thug. ¡°You have hands and feet, but you don¡¯t know how to work. Why? Are you here to beg for money? But you have soiled my eyes with your ugliness. Even if you kneel down and beg me, I won¡¯t give you money.¡±


    Yin Xun sighed in her heart. Then, she walked up to Qu Lin and said to the thug, ¡°Did you come here just to ask for money? Who asked you to come? I don¡¯t think this is a sudden impulse.¡±


    The leader of the thugs snorted coldly and said, ¡°What does it have to do with you? Anyway, just tell me if you plan to pay or not. If you don¡¯t, don¡¯t even think about stopping us in the future!¡±


    ¡°What if we don¡¯t pay?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Then you can wait to be beaten up.¡± The leader of the thugs swung the stick in his hand and threatened Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°In other words, you¡¯re here to rob people. If we don¡¯t give it to you, you¡¯ll beat us up, is that right?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡±


    Yin Xun took out her phone and took a look. When the thug saw her actions, he thought that she was going to call the police. He immediately rushed over and tried to snatch the phone. At the same time, he threatened, ¡°If you dare to call the police, 1¡¯11 kill you!¡±


    As the thug pounced over, Yin Xun reacted quickly and dodged his stick. Then, she raised her leg and kicked the hooligan¡¯s back, knocking him down.


    Qu Lin was about to help, but she did not expect Yin Xun to not only avoid getting hit but also kick the hooligan down. She immediately gave her a thumbs-up and said, ¡°You¡¯re quite skilled.¡±


    Yin Xun said humbly, ¡°Recently, my training has been very effective.¡±


    The hooligan did not expect Yin Xun to dodge the attack and even counter with a kick. He was caught off guard and fell face-first to the ground.


    This was a construction site. The ground was covered in sand, cement, and stones. His face kissed all of these things intimately. When he looked up, Yin Xun saw that his face was already bruised and bleeding. It was a shocking sight.


    ¡°What are you all looking at? Let¡¯s do this!¡± After he regained his composure, he shouted at the other thugs. Then, he gritted his teeth and got to his feet. He spat at Yin Xun, ¡°How dare you hit me? I¡¯ll kill you!¡±


    After saying that, he rushed toward Yin Xun again..

 Chapter 359 - Chapter 359: Last Chance

    Chapter 359: Last Chance


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun and Qu Lin looked at each other and quickly dodged the attack.


    ¡°I¡¯ll give you one last chance. Are you leaving or not?¡± Yin Xun asked the thug in a deep voice.


    The gangster leader spat, ¡°You beat me up and you still want us to leave? 1 didn¡¯t want to hit you at first. I just wanted to scare you. Now, even if you give me money, I have to beat you up!¡±


    ¡°Brothers, they want to beat up President Yin. We are men. President Yin is so good to us. We can¡¯t just watch her get beaten up. Everyone, let¡¯s go together. 1 don¡¯t believe that we can¡¯t fight off these people!¡± Suddenly, there was a shout from the crowd. As the voice fell, the group of workers suddenly went into an uproar.


    Although they did not have weapons, they had tools¡ªshovels, pitchforks, and whatever else they had. They shouted as they walked toward Yin Xun.


    Their original intention was not to fight, but only to protect Yin Xun. Therefore, after walking to Yin Xun¡¯s side, they all stood still and stared at the other group. As long as the thugs did not attack, they would not attack either.


    Everyone was afraid that they would be injured. They still had a family to support, so they would not fight unless they had no choice.


    The thugs looked at the workers and were a little surprised. Before Yin Xun came, they had caused some trouble, but these workers did not say a word and had no intention of fighting back. Therefore, they thought that the workers here were all timid and afraid.


    Unexpectedly, the workers were eyeing them fiercely now. Looking at all the tall and strong workers, the thugs began to feel a little afraid.


    These workers did rough work. Although they did not know how to fight, they were physically strong. They could probably slap ordinary people into a daze with one hit.


    The leader of the thugs pondered the situation with his face covered in blood. It was not appropriate to fight now. They did not have many people¡ªonly a dozen or so. Meanwhile, the other party had dozens of workers.


    Their only advantage was that they knew how to fight and had weapons. Moreover, he thought about how he had been injured by a woman. If word got out, he would not be able to survive in the future. After thinking about it again and again, he decided to stay and fight.


    ¡°Come on, let¡¯s fight. We¡¯ve been in prison for a long time, so we¡¯re not afraid of fighting. You guys, however, have to support your family. All of you are so poor that you can¡¯t even afford to eat, yet you still want to fight. If everyone here goes to prison, let¡¯s see how you can support your family!¡± The leader of the thugs was not completely brainless. Me knew what these workers were most afraid of and threatened them.


    The workers looked at each other and saw the concern in each other¡¯s eyes. They also knew the consequences of fighting, especially a gang fight, which was even more serious.


    However, although everyone had their reservations, they still shielded Yin Xun behind them and had no intention of moving aside.


    Yin Xun looked at everyone protecting her behind them, and a warm feeling flowed through her heart. Qu Lin stretched out her elbow and nudged her. ¡°Yin Xun, your employees are really good to you.¡±


    ¡°Everyone has a good relationship here,¡± Yin Xun replied indifferently.


    However, she did not intend to let these workers fight.


    She ignored the workers¡¯ persuasion and walked to the front, only two to three meters away from the thugs.


    ¡°I¡¯ve given you a chance. Since you¡¯re not leaving, stay here.¡± As Yin Xun finished speaking, two black cars suddenly rushed over and stopped at the gate. Then, under everyone¡¯s gaze, two groups of burly bodyguards walked down.


    The bodyguards looked like the ones seen on television. All of them were dressed in black and wore sunglasses, striking a rather imposing look.


    The moment they got out of the car, they walked toward Yin Xun. The two people in the lead were talking about Tan Ai and Shu Yi.


    ¡°President Yin.¡± Tan Ai and Shu Yi greeted Yin Xun. ¡°We brought them over. What do you think we should do?¡±


    ¡°There are no surveillance cameras in this area. You guys can do whatever you want. Just don¡¯t kill anyone. Remember to call the police after you¡¯re done,¡± Yin Xun instructed calmly.


    ¡°Yes!¡± Tan Ai and Shu Yi said. Then, they signaled to the bodyguards. Everyone rubbed their fists and walked toward the thugs.


    The thug leader did not expect Yin Xun to call for help. It was obvious that the people she called were professional fighters. He immediately became deflated.


    However, he did not show any fear on his face. He said, ¡°If you dare to call the police, believe it or not, we¡¯ll come every day from now on and won¡¯t give you another peaceful day!¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m obedient. If you don¡¯t want me to call the police, I won¡¯t. I just called my bodyguards over. They¡¯ll play with you.¡±


    The bodyguards were all professionally trained, so they did not have the same concerns as those workers.


    After receiving Yin Xun¡¯s instructions, they rubbed their fists and walked toward the thugs..

    Chapter 360: It¡¯s Second Miss


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The leader of the thugs saw that the others had no intention of stepping forward Although the bodyguards looked like they were not people to be trifled with, fortunately, there were fewer of them. The thugs had more people, so this fight was at least better than dealing with the workers.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go together!¡± The thug leader gave the order, and the rest of the thugs rushed over. Both sides immediately started fighting.


    The bodyguards were indeed professionals. Although there were many more thugs, they were no match for them at all. The thugs were forced to retreat after a while.


    The thugs continued backing away as they fought. After a while, they were forced into an empty space. Behind them was a high wall, and they had nowhere to retreat.


    At this moment, the thugs were already beaten black and blue. Seeing that they could not win, they immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.


    ¡°Wait, wait a minute!¡± The leader of the thugs squeezed out a smile and signaled for his lackeys behind him to stop. After that, he said to Yin Xun, who was behind the bodyguards, ¡°Yin¡­ President Yin, we were wrong. We will not dare to cause any more trouble. We will leave immediately. Please be merciful and let us go!¡±


    Yin Xun walked over and sneered. ¡°Now that you know you¡¯ve made a mistake, you regret it? Alright, I¡¯ll give you a chance. Who asked you to cause trouble? Don¡¯t tell me that you came on your own. You don¡¯t have the guts to do that.¡±


    ¡°No one. We were greedy for money and thought that we could get some money here, so we came over¡­¡± the thug stammered.


    Yin Xun stared at him coldly. Seeing that he was not telling the truth, she sneered and turned to leave. She went to Jiang Xing¡¯s side and said, ¡°I¡¯ll leave the rest to you. Help me find out who is behind this.¡±


    Then, without looking at the thug again, she pulled Qu Lin to the office at the back.


    Behind them were the sounds of thugs and bodyguards fighting. When the workers saw the bodyguards defeat the thugs, they also stepped forward to kick them. Anyway, there were no surveillance cameras here, so no one would know what they did.


    ¡°I¡¯m warning you, let us go now. Otherwise, I¡¯ll make sure you can¡¯t continue working in the future!¡± The thug refused to say who was behind this and even threatened others.


    ¡°There¡¯s someone of high status behind us. If you hit us again, you¡¯ll all lose your jobs!¡± No one knew who the person behind them was; the thug leader actually did not say anything after being beaten up. He was so angry that he started to curse.


    The bodyguards ignored his curses. As long as their mission was not completed, they would not relent.


    ¡°Ouch, it hurts. I¡¯m going to be crippled. Friends, please let me go. I can¡¯t take it anymore¡­


    ¡°I ll talk, I¡¯ll talk. I¡¯ll tell you who it is. Stop attacking!¡±


    The more he cursed, the harder the bodyguards hit them. In the end, the thug could not take it anymore and finally wanted to spill the beans. Jiang Xing gestured for the bodyguards to stop. The bodyguards then took a few steps back and stood in a straight line, trapping the thugs in the middle.


    ¡°Tell me, who is it?¡± Jiang Xing squatted down and looked at the leader of the thugs.


    The man cried and said, ¡°It¡¯s President Yin!¡±


    Smack!


    Jiang Xing raised a hand and slapped the hooligan. The sound was loud and clear. It was obvious that she had used a lot of strength. Then, the hooligan¡¯s nose slowly bled.


    ¡°You still dare to frame President Yin?! Looks like you have not been beaten enough.¡± Jiang Xing stood up and gestured for the bodyguards to continue hitting him.


    Yin Xun was his benefactor. If not for Yin Xun, he might not have been able to do anything now. He might have been squeezed out of his job long ago. It was all thanks to Yin Xun. She had taken care of the people who always targeted him and even promoted him to an official position. He was filled with gratitude toward Yin Xun for letting him manage the finances of such a huge project.


    That was why he was so agitated when he heard the thug frame Yin Xun. He could not let others misunderstand the boss.


    The thug quickly explained, ¡°It was President Yin, but it¡¯s not that President Yin. Ugh, I really did not lie. The person who came to use is also from the Yin family. I think her name is¡­Yin Mo!¡±


    ¡°Second Miss?¡± Jiang Xing suddenly turned around. The thug thought that he was going to be beaten up again and quickly covered his face.


    However, Jiang Xing clearly had no intention of hitting him. Instead, he grabbed the man¡¯s collar and asked, ¡°Are you sure?¡±


    Although Yin Mo was not here, the management knew about her.


    Yin Mo and Yin Xun were biological sisters, but the two of them did not get along. In the past, Yin Xun had said that Yin Mo was not allowed to come here.


    Although they did not know the exact reason, everyone still did as they were told. Before this, Yin Mo had come a few times, but she was stopped by the security guards at the door.


    When Yin Mo first came, they had reported to Yin Xun, but after Yin Xun heard that Yin Mo did not go in, she said that he did not need to bother about her.


    Jiang Xing suddenly understood something.


    He walked away and called Yin Xun to tell her about the situation..

    Chapter 361: Another Shadow

    ¡°Yin Mo?¡± Yin Xun repeated blankly.


    If this was really Yin Mo¡¯s doing, it meant that Si Fan also knew about it. In other words, Si Fan was indeed the one who instigated this.


    This made Yin Xun a little surprised. She did not expect Si Fan to use such a lowly method. It seemed that his success back then was indeed all thanks to the protagonist¡¯s halo. There was no proper scheme at all.


    At this moment, she was in the surveillance room with Yu Tu, staring at the innermost area of the construction site.


    When she was talking to the thugs just now, she saw a black shadow flash past inside and guessed that the people outside were not the only ones causing trouble.


    Especially from the attitude of those thugs just now, it was obvious that they were looking for trouble. They did not have the intention to attack at the beginning, so they were stalling for time.


    Therefore, the person who really came to cause trouble was actually the person inside. Thinking of this, Yin Xun asked Yu Tu to come inside and monitor.


    Just as she had expected, the black shadow she had seen at the beginning was secretly wreaking havoc at the construction site. Before doing this, the person had even patrolled around. From the looks of it, they were looking for surveillance cameras. After looking around and not seeing any surveillance cameras, that person got to work.


    Instead of damaging the building, the person was destroying the worker¡¯s seat belts and the safety rope that secured the ladder.


    Yin Xun did not intend to stop the person as watched them wreak havoc. On the other hand, Yu Tu was anxious and wanted to remind Yin Xun. Unfortunately, Yin Xun was on the phone at this moment, signaling him to be quiet.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Although I don¡¯t know if they¡¯re telling the truth, that¡¯s what the leader of the hooligans said,¡± Jiang Xing said.


    Yin Xun leaned against the swivel chair and crossed her legs. She bent her fingers and knocked on the table twice. She said in a deep voice, ¡°Then ask him where Yin Mo is now.¡±


    If Yin Mo was the one who did this, it meant that Si Fan was the one who instigated it. It was useless to just capture Yin Mo. The most important thing was to get Yin Mo to expose Si Fan. Capturing Si Fan was the most important thing.


    When Jiang Xing heard Yin Xun¡¯s request, he turned around and walked to the leader of the thugs. He squatted down and asked him, ¡°You said that Yin Mo asked you to come. Where is Yin Mo now?¡±


    ¡°She didn¡¯t want us to say anything¡­¡± The hooligan tried to bluff his way through, but Jiang Xing would not let him off easily. He raised his hand and was about to beat him up.


    The thug had long been beaten black and blue, and his nose was bleeding profusely. When he saw that Jiang Xing was about to hit him, he quickly dodged and begged for mercy at the same time. ¡°I¡¯ll talk, I¡¯ll talk. Miss Yin Mo said that this company belongs to her family, and nothing will happen if she causes trouble in her own company. If something really happens in the end, she will bear the responsibility. She gave us a sum of money and told us not to hurt anyone. It¡¯s good enough as long as you guys can¡¯t start working. But you don¡¯t have to worry. Miss Yin Mo is very kind. She just wants us to put on an act. Look, we didn¡¯t really hurt anyone, right? We were just scaring you guys¡­¡±


    Jiang Xing¡¯s phone was always on call, so Yin Xun also heard the thug¡¯s words.


    Yin Mo was really loyal to Si Fan. However, she did not know why she had come to cause trouble. Yin Xun lowered her eyes. She needed to find Yin Mo and ask her clearly.


    ¡°President Yin, what do you think we should do now?¡± Jiang Xing asked Yin Xun.


    If it was a stranger, it would be easy. She only needed to hand the criminal over to the police. However, this was about the Yin family; she was Yin Xun¡¯s biological sister. They could not send her to prison, right? Jiang Xing did not know what to do, so he could only ask Yin Xun.


    ¡°Ask where Yin Mo is and if there¡¯s any evidence to prove that Yin Mo did it. Also, other than Yin Mo, is there anyone else involved?¡± Yin Xun gave the instructions calmly. At this moment, her gaze was fixed on the surveillance camera. The person who caused the damage was not done yet.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Xing then repeated Yin Xun¡¯s question to the thug.


    The thugs looked troubled. Everyone looked at each other and stammered as if they were afraid of something and did not dare to say anything.


    Jiang Xing threatened them. ¡°Looks like you haven¡¯t been beaten enough.¡± With that, he gestured for the bodyguards to continue attacking.


    ¡°No, no, I¡¯ll tell you!¡± The thug finally revealed everything. ¡°Yin Mo said that she would transfer us the money after we¡¯re done. She said that if the matter was exposed, she wouldn¡¯t give us the money. We don¡¯t know what she looks like either. When she came to look for us, she covered her face very tightly. She didn¡¯t even show her eyes. If she finds out that we sold her out, it¡¯ll be all over. We won¡¯t get the money, and we can¡¯t find her anyway..¡±

    After listening to the thug¡¯s words, Yin Xun said to Jiang Xing, ¡°Tell this guy to contact Yin Mo and tell her that the task was completed smoothly, but that he will only accept payment in physical cash to avoid being traced. As for the location, get somewhere nearby. Try to get Yin Mo to come herself.¡±


    Jiang Xing was stunned. ¡°What do we do after Second Miss comes?¡±


    ¡°Yin Mo will definitely meet him. Send two people to follow them and record the meeting. Then, capture them together. As for what happens after that¡­¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°We¡¯re the only construction site nearby. There are no surveillance cameras.¡±


    Jiang Xing immediately understood and agreed. ¡°Okay, President Yin, I will do it right away.¡±


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun pointed at the surveillance camera and said to Yu Tu, ¡°Alright, it¡¯s almost time for that person to complete his mission. Go and capture him.¡±


    The surveillance cameras had been destroyed by the thugs, but they did not expect Yin Xun to install pinhole cameras for safety.


    The pinhole camera was very small and concealed. In addition, no one would expect such a thing to be installed at the construction site, so they were no longer vigilant.


    Actually, there was one more at the entrance of the construction site, but it had been closed by Yin Xun, so there was no need to keep this video as evidence.


    Meanwhile, Yin Mo, who had been waiting for news in the nearby coffee shops, received a message from the thug. He said that he had completed his mission and was leaving. He asked her to transfer the money quickly.


    Yin Mo glanced at her phone. When she did not receive Si Fan¡¯s message, she replied to the thug, ¡°No, there¡¯s not enough time now. You have to delay my sister for a while longer. You can leave when 1 inform you.¡±


    No matter what the thugs said, she refused to budge. She insisted on paying later and even instructed the thugs to delay Yin Xun as long as possible.


    Jiang Xing was sitting beside the thug while the messages were exchanged. When he saw Yin Mo¡¯s words, he immediately frowned.


    Why did these words sound so weird? It was as if Yin Mo had something else on her mind.


    He quickly called Yin Xun and told hir about this.


    After Yin Xun heard Jiang Xing¡¯s report, she immediately had a bad feeling. She immediately thought of a plan to lure the schemer out of hiding. She thought of Mary. She has a guess about what Yin Mo meant.


    She immediately took out her phone and called Mary. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.


    Yin Xun called twice, but still, no one picked up. The situation was indeed fishy. Logically speaking, Mary should be at work now, so she should have heard the call.


    Yin Mo immediately called Mi Jin, and the call was quickly picked up.


    ¡°Hello, President Yin, there are no nearby options that meet your requirements. Please wait a little longer. I will search somewhere further away.¡± Mi Jin¡¯s panting voice could be heard from the other end.


    Yin Xun did not care what he was going to buy and went straight to the point. ¡°Where¡¯s Mary? Have you seen Mary today?¡±


    Mi Jin asked in confusion, ¡°Ah, she¡¯s at the company. Is something wrong? What¡¯s the matter? Didn¡¯t you tell her to go out and buy coffee beans? Is that not the case?¡±


    Why did Yin Xun call him if she was looking for Mary?


    Yin Xun¡¯s face darkened. She had guessed right. Mary was working with Yin Mo. One of them lured her away, while the other went to her place to steal something.


    If Yin Xun was not mistaken, Mary must have gone to steal the company seal.


    ¡°Go back to the company immediately and inform the security guards. If they see Mary, stop her.¡± Yin Xun hung up the phone after giving the order.


    ¡°Jiang Xing, Yu Tu, i¡¯ll leave the matters here to you guys for the time being. Don¡¯t be in a hurry to call the police. Keep this.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she took out a recording pen from her pocket and handed it to Yu Tu. ¡°Inside this is a recording of what those thugs said just now. After we re done, we¡¯ll call the police. It¡¯ll be useful to hand this to the police. Wait for my update. Don¡¯t tell anyone that I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡± Yu Tu and Jiang Xing both agreed.


    After hanging up the phone, she instructed Yu Tu to pay attention to the suspect at all times. After that, Yin Xun left the construction site.


    ¡°Hey, what¡¯s wrong now? Where are you going?¡± Qu Lin saw Yin Xun walking out quickly and quickly jogged to catch up with her.


    Yin Xun did not even look at her. She only looked at the road ahead and walked quickly. ¡°There¡¯s something going on at the company. Qu Lin, can you lend me your driver and car?¡±


    Qu Lin nodded. ¡°Of course. I¡¯ll go with you.¡±


    After the two of them got into the car, Qu Lin kept urging the driver to drive faster. The driver agreed and stepped on the accelerator. The car instantly rushed forward like an arrow.


    The driver followed Yin Xun¡¯s instructions and quickly arrived at the entrance of Xintao Company. Yin Xun and Qu Lin got out of the car and promptly walked into the company building..

    Chapter 363: The Seal Was Stolen


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Everything was normal in the building. Everyone was doing their work in an orderly manner. When they saw Yin Xun return, they all greeted her.


    Yin Xun nodded and took a private elevator to her office. When she came out of the elevator, she saw Mi Jin standing at the door of her office.


    ¡°President Yin, what exactly happened?¡± Mi Jin saw Yin Xun coming over and quickly walked over.


    Yin Xun explained as she walked, ¡°Mary might have been threatened by Si Fan to steal the seal from my office. Check inside the room. By the way, did you notice anything unusual about Mary before you left?¡±


    ¡°No.¡± Mi Jin shook his head. ¡°It feels like she¡¯s the same as usual. Nothing has changed, and she doesn¡¯t look flustered.¡±


    As the two of them spoke, Yin Xun opened the door to her office and walked in to take a look. There were indeed traces of rummaging on the desk and the cabinet behind it. Even the documents were messed up.


    Mi Jin often came to Yin Xun¡¯s office and knew how things were usually arranged. He immediately said in surprise, ¡°Could Mary really have stolen something?¡±


    ¡°1 don¡¯t know. Let me see if I¡¯ve lost anything,¡± Yin Xun said and walked over to check.


    Mi Jin and Qu Lin stood at the door with no intention of entering.


    This was Yin Xun¡¯s office. Only Yin Xun knew if there was anything missing. If they went in now, they would only cause trouble.


    While Yin Xun was checking her things, Qu Lin sized up Mi Jin for a while. Under Mi Jin¡¯s puzzled gaze, she nodded and said, ¡°So, you¡¯re Mi Jin, the super famous computer genius.¡±


    ¡°How do you know about me?¡± Mi Jin did not know Qu Lin, but seeing that Qu Lin and Yin Xun had come together, and Yin Xun did not shy away from Qu Lin¡¯s words, he guessed that their relationship was definitely not ordinary. With that in mind, he spoke in a softer tone.


    If someone else asked him this question, he would definitely not answer them. He would either get angry or ignore them.


    Ever since he came back with Yin Xun, he had never revealed his identity. Everyone knew about him in the past¡ªMi Jin, the computer genius who broke the law and went to jail.


    In the past, he was young and frivolous. Relying on his talent, he had always been very high-profile. Almost everyone in the industry knew about him.


    When he came back this time, his personality had become more reserved and he had never shown his face in front of outsiders. Probably no one except Si Fan knew about him. However, Si Fan would not be so careless as to announce his identity to anyone. Yin Xun would be even more guarded unless Qu Lin was an investor.


    Facing Mi Jin¡¯s question, Qu Lin smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s easy. 1 found out with a simple investigation. 1 also know that you¡¯ve been in prison before. Yin Xun is really bold to use someone with a criminal record like you. However, on second thought, it makes sense. After all, your skills are useful.¡±


    Qu Lin did not hide her words at all and said them directly.


    Mi Jin,¡°¡­¡±


    He did not expect Qu Lin¡¯s words to be so unpleasant, but since Qu Lin was Yin Xun¡¯s friend, he could not lose his temper. Although he was unhappy, he could only endure it.


    Mi Jin snorted coldly and did not say anything else. Qu Lin only looked at him with a slight smile, as if she was deliberately provoking Mi Jin.


    Yin Xun was looking for things in the office. Although she was a mess of a person in her daily life, she was very organized in her work. She sorted everything into categories; as long as something was missing, she would know what was gone after looking through her things.


    After a thorough inspection, she realized that the seal had indeed been stolen.


    ¡°The seal was stolen. Do you know where Mary went?¡± Yin Xun asked Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin shook his head. ¡°1 don¡¯t know. 1 just notified the security guards. They stayed behind, but the security guards said that they didn¡¯t see her. Could it be that she hasn¡¯t left the company yet?¡±


    Almost all the employees in the company knew Mary. If Mary came and left, everyone would definitely see her. Since no one saw her leaving, it meant that she was still in the company.


    However, Yin Xun did not think this was the case. Since Mary had already obtained the item, she would definitely exchange it with Si Fan immediately.


    After some thought, she looked at Mi Jin and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go to the surveillance room to take a look.¡±


    When they arrived at the surveillance room, Yin Xun asked the staff to turn on all the surveillance cameras. She and Mi Jin checked carefully and saw the time when Mary asked Mi Jin to buy something.


    Mary made a call at the entrance of the company, talking as she walked inside.


    Then, they saw Mi Jin¡¯s figure appear in another surveillance camera. Mi Jin came out of the office and walked past Yin Xun¡¯s office without even looking at it. He directly entered the elevator and went down..

    Chapter 364: Mary Did It

    Seeing this, Yin Xun glanced at Mi Jin. Mi Jin touched his hair awkwardly. Back then, his mind was filled with software problems and he had neglected such a big matter.


    If Yin Xun wanted someone to help buy things, she could have asked anyone but him.


    Not long after Mi Jin left the office, Mary went up. She looked around furtively. When she saw that there was no one around, she carefully pushed open the door and entered Yin Xun¡¯s office.


    She was Yin Xun¡¯s assistant, so she was very familiar with Yin Xun¡¯s office. She knew where everything was placed and came out very quickly. Yin Xun could not see what was happening in the office, but she could see Mary sneaking out later.


    After Mary came out of the office, she did not seem to be in a hurry to leave. Instead, she went to the bathroom. A few minutes later, a cleaner came out of the bathroom.


    Because the cleaning lady was wearing a hat and mask, no one knew could tell that it was Mary.


    ¡°She¡¯s really thoughtful. She even disguised herself,¡± Qu Lin said with a smile.


    Mi Jin frowned and rolled his eyes at her. Was this the time for that? The company¡¯s seal had been lost. Such a big thing had happened, but she only knew how to make sarcastic remarks. Was she Yin Xun¡¯s friend or not?


    Qu Lin saw Mi Jin¡¯s expression and knew that he was criticizing her for talking too much. She smiled indifferently and said, ¡°What¡¯s the hurry? Can¡¯t you see that your boss is carefree about it?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s my fault the seal is lost. This is a big deal. Of course, I¡¯m anxious. If Mary uses this seal to do something harmful to the company, I¡¯ll be the first to bear responsibility!¡± Mi Jin¡¯s voice was trembling. Before this, Yin Xun had instructed him to be more careful.


    He did not expect he would be so careless and make a mistake in the end. Yin Xun was his benefactor. If not for Yin Xun, he would still be worrying about life and have nothing to his name.


    Qu Lin looked at Mi Jin¡¯s self-blame and was stunned. She pointed at Mi Jin and asked Yin Xun, ¡°Is he really that afraid?¡±


    Mi Jin rolled her eyes at Qu Lin and snapped, ¡°Does this look like an act to you?¡±


    ¡°Pfft¡­ Hahaha.¡± Qu Lin laughed. She approached Mi Jin and stared at his face for a few seconds before saying, ¡°It¡¯s useless for someone to just take the seal. Do you think such a big company can decide life and death with just a seal? It¡¯s not that easy to sign a contract. It needs to go through the approval of the higher-ups.¡±


    Qu Lin turned to look at the surveillance screen and continued, ¡°The fact that Mary took the seal will only affect herself in the end. She will go to jail, and your company won¡¯t suffer any losses.¡±


    Mi Jin clearly did not believe Qu Lin¡¯s words.


    He was a technician and did not understand these twists and turns. Hence, he looked at Yin Xun inquiringly.


    After seeing Yin Xun nod, he heaved a sigh of relief.


    Despite knowing that Mary had taken the seal away, Yin Xun did not say anything and walked out alone.


    Qu Lin nudged Mi Jin and whispered to him, ¡°Is Mary her trusted assistant?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Mary has been following President Yin since the very beginning. She has always been helping President Yin with things. She can be considered to be her confidant. 1 did not expect that she would betray her.¡± Mi Jin sighed, feeling a sense of pity in his heart.


    However, Qu Lin did not think so. She raised her hand to her chin and looked thoughtfully at Mary¡¯s figure in the surveillance camera. She whispered, ¡°Why do I feel that something is wrong?¡±


    Yin Xun came out of the surveillance room and walked into an empty room. Then she called Mary again. This time, Mary picked up.


    ¡°Where are you?¡± Yin Xun asked directly.


    Mary did not reply. She only apologized. ¡°I am sorry, President Yin. I stole your seal. I believe that you must have already discovered it. But don¡¯t worry, I will not betray you. I will return it to you after I use it. I will not cause you any trouble.¡±


    Mary ended the call.


    Yin Xun looked at the black screen of her phone and frowned slightly. She tried to sort out this matter mentally.


    From the incident at the construction site, where she had been lured over, to Mary stealing the company seal. Somehow, she had the feeling it was not over yet.


    When she walked out of the room, Qu Lin and Mi Jin had also come out and were standing not far away.


    Yin Xun approached the twro of them and asked Mi Jin, ¡°Is there anything unusual about Blue Fox today?¡±


    Mi Jin thought for a moment and said, ¡°There¡¯s nothing unusual. They just repaired the bugs and went online again. However, because of the previous problems, not many mobile phone companies dare to work with Blue Fox now. Hence, they advertised from the webpage and set up a huge discount that users can directly claim from the webpage..¡±

    Mi Jin took out his phone, found the post about Blue Fox and the official website, and showed it to Yin Xun.


    ¡°However, there seems to be a problem with their promotional activities. Those coupons will reduce the price, but the price of the goods can either be low or high. If the users want to collect the full promotion, they need to buy more things. In order to satisfy the customer¡¯s requests, Blue Fox opened an official boutique. There is a lot of jade and jewelry inside. Although the things are expensive, it¡¯s perfect to make up the bill. Moreover, there¡¯s also a lottery event. The prizes are quite generous. It¡¯s completely different from Blue Fox¡¯s previous style.¡±


    ¡°Did a user really get the prize?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mi Jin nodded. ¡°That¡¯s for sure. Even if Blue Fox only wants to use the prizes to fool people, they can t just withhold the prizes. That¡¯s illegal. The winners will be announced, and those people are all real users. I¡¯ve checked this. If there¡¯s anything abnormal, it¡¯s the constant stream of criticism.¡±


    Yin Xun lowered her head and pondered for a moment. Then, she looked up and continued to ask, ¡°When will they start sending the prizes?¡±


    Mi Jin said, ¡°The announcement claimed it would be three days later.¡±


    ¡°Alright, then keep an eye on their winners list. Si Fan isn¡¯t a generous person. He will definitely make an issue out of the prizes. Since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s set Xintao to be released in three days. This is a free publicity opportunity. There will be a good comparison.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    Xintao¡¯s reputation had always been good. Blue Fox was just borrowing Xintao¡¯s glory right now.


    If something happened to Blue Fox, no one could blame her for using Blue Fox¡¯s popularity to pave the way for Xintao. It seemed that she had to hurry up with the delivery system and short video platform.


    While the two of them were talking, Qu Lin had already taken the initiative to walk far away. She took out her phone and started fiddling with it. She had no intention of listening to their conversation at all.


    Yin Xun noticed her behavior and smiled slightly. She liked Qu Lin¡¯s personality more and more.


    Then, she thought about it. Since Qu Lin had already come to Xintao with her, she might as well use this opportunity to talk about investment.


    ¡°Qu Lin,¡± Yin Xun called out to her.


    Qu Lin raised her head and looked at Yin Xun in confusion. Yin Xun waved her hand at her, signaling her to go over.


    After Qu Lin came over, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that investing in Xintao is not very feasible? Then I¡¯ll bring you to take a look at our business secrets. I¡¯m confident that after you read it, you¡¯ll feel that investing in Xintao is more valuable than acquiring Blue Fox.¡±


    Yin Xun made an inviting gesture, but Qu Lin did not budge. She looked at Yin Xun warily and refused the offer. ¡°Commercial secrets? I can¡¯t look at that. You¡¯re not using this to threaten me to invest, are you?¡±


    Mi Jin, who was at the side, looked shocked as he said, ¡°President Yin, this is between us and Blue Fox. Are you sure you want to let¡­¡±


    He did not know what the relationship between Qu Lin and Yin Xun was. He did not finish his sentence, but Yin Xun understood what he meant.


    ¡°It¡¯s alright. Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t use this matter to threaten you. This is just my sincerity as the CEO of Xintao and my desire to get you to invest,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Are you serious?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. Seeing this, Qu Lin finally went to the office with Yin Xun.


    Mi Jin, who was following behind, was stunned. Yin Xun had only come back for the company¡¯s seal. Why did she not care at all about the seal being lost? Instead, she just dragged Qu Lin to look around. What was going on?


    Although he was puzzled, he still followed them.


    Arriving at Mi Jin¡¯s office, Yin Xun asked Mi Jin to find Blue Fox¡¯s post on the computer.


    Although the bugs had been fixed, there were still many people blasting Blue Fox in the post. Some of these people had not recovered the money that had been lost, and some had their phone batteries burned because their phones became too hot.


    However, there was always a silver lining. The worst were the people who had business plans. They were losing a large sum of money because the software made them miss important calls.


    In addition to the forums, other social media platforms were also bashing Blue Fox. Anyone who spoke up for Blue Fox was directly attacked on the Internet.


    Although the people who spoke up for Si Fan were paid to do it, because the situation was getting very uncontrollable, even the paid posters did not dare to continue speaking up for him.


    In addition to buying ghostwriters, Si Fan also sent legal letters to those bloggers who were badmouthing Blue Fox. However, it was useless. Everyone knew that this legal letter had no substance at all. They would still bash Blue Fox as they liked. Even if Si Fan spent money to reduce the trending searches and remove the posts, it was useless.


    The users had such a huge reaction because their own interests were damaged. Si Fan knew this, so he pulled in investments from somewhere and claimed to hold a lottery event to compensate the users for their losses..

    ¡°Is that all you want to show me? It¡¯s nothing special. Although there are some problems with Blue Fox now, it¡¯s very common in the business world. As long as they buy some fake reviewers in the later stages, launch some activities, and have a good operation, their reputation will return very quickly.¡± Qu Lin looked at the news and was not interested.


    Seeing that Qu Lin did not care about this, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°This is only the beginning. I¡¯m not persuading you to invest. I¡¯m just showing you around. This matter can¡¯t be rushed. You¡¯ll see the difference between our two companies in the future.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Qu Lin casually leaned back in her chair and rested her elbows on the armrests. She supported her chin with the back of her hand and pointed at the information on Blue Fox¡¯s website with her other hand. ¡°Looking at Blue Fox now, it¡¯s indeed difficult for them to make a comeback. Since they¡¯ve already reached this point, I believe you won¡¯t give them a chance to make a comeback.¡±


    Yin Xun opened the information on Xintao¡¯s website and showed it to Qu Lin on a split screen. ¡°Right now, Blue Fox¡¯s only business is online shopping. Even their express delivery is outsourced. Even if their website is established, it will be restricted in the future. Although you can make money with Blue Fox¡¯s original reputation after acquiring Blue Fox, their foundation is not good enough. No matter how hard you work with it, Blue Fox will be slower than Xintao.¡±


    Qu Lin raised her hand and interrupted Yin Xun¡¯s words. She retorted disapprovingly, ¡°The biggest problem that Blue Fox is facing now is their bug problem, but there¡¯s nothing much else to be worried about. After all, before Blue Fox went online with the phone app, they had a decent foundation in the computer. Meanwhile, Xintao is only on the app store for two phone brands. I¡¯m afraid that its current users are not even half of Blue Fox¡¯s.


    ¡°Moreover, Xintao hasn¡¯t been fully released yet. No one can guarantee the details. Although 1 know that Brother Fang Yao invested in you, who knows if he did for other motive regarding you. Whether the project is good or not, I need to personally inspect it to know. Although you¡¯re my savior and I like you very much, I can¡¯t invest just like that. You¡¯re a smart person, I¡¯m sure you understand me, right?¡±


    Listening to Qu Lin¡¯s explanation, Yin Xun once again had a better impression of her.


    Working with such a smart and rational person would be extra beneficial in the long run.


    However, it was precisely because she was so rational that it was not easy to rope her in. She had to let her see with her own eyes that Xintao was stronger than Blue Fox.


    ¡°What if I let you experience it for yourself?¡± Yin Xun looked at Qu Lin and asked with a smile.


    Qu Lin was stunned for a moment. She looked at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°What do you mean? Do you mean you want to show me around Xintao workflow?¡±


    Yin Xun did not answer. Instead, she smiled and said, ¡°How is it? Didn¡¯t you say that only by experiencing it personally can you ensure that this project is worth investing in? Since you have nothing to do, how about you experience it with me tomorrow?¡±


    Qu Lin did not understand. She was already in Xintao. If Yin Xun really wanted to show her around, why could they now go now? Why did they have to wait for tomorrow?


    No matter how Qu Lin asked, Yin Xun did not answer. She only repeated that if Qu Lin wanted to experience it, she would come over tomorrow.


    Qu Lin refused to invest, but it was not because she was biased against Xintao. On the contrary, she was very curious about Xintao.


    Now that Yin Xun had made the offer, she thought that she had nothing to do tomorrow anyway. Who would turn down money? Thinking about the loss of the official seal just now, Yin Xun might still be busy with the official seal today.


    Although it would not be a big deal if the official seal was lost, if someone with ulterior motives took it and did something, the consequences might not be light.


    ¡°Alright, then it¡¯s a deal. I¡¯ll wait for you at home tomorrow. I¡¯ll bring you along to experience it.¡± Yin Xun smiled when she saw that Qu Lin had agreed. It seemed like there was a chance.


    Earning money was like this. As long as there was a chance, you would use all kinds of methods. Regardless of whether she would lose dignity or not, earning money was the most important thing.


    Now, her company needed to expand its various businesses. It was impossible to rely on Fang Yao alone. If anything happened, there would be nothing left.


    As the saying went, the worst thing was to put all the eggs in one basket. Once the basket broke, all the eggs would be gone. The assets should be separated so that the losses could be minimized.


    Although she has another investor, Liu Ying, she had fallen out with her family and had already invested all her money. It was impossible to get more money from her in the future..

    Now that she had Qu Lin, a rich second-generation heir, as long as she could win her over, she would have another person to rely on for the projects.


    No matter what Qu Lin thought about this, Yin Xun needed to win Qu Lin over tomorrow.


    ¡°By the way, your official seal has been stolen. Aren¡¯t you worried? Are you not going to do anything?¡± Qu Lin, who had just finished her agreement with Yin Xun, realized that Yin Xun did not seem to be too worried about this problem.


    Yin Xun smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°Anyway, the theft of the official seal won¡¯t have much of an impact. We¡¯ll wait for Mary to come back and call the police and hand it over to them to deal with. However, the more important thing now is Modern City. It won¡¯t be good if someone over there is injured.


    ¡°Mi Jin, you¡¯ll be in charge when I¡¯m not in the company. Don¡¯t make a fuss about losing the official seal. I¡¯ll deal with this matter after I¡¯m done with the construction site.¡± Yin Xun turned around and instructed Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin was puzzled. ¡°But aren¡¯t we going to call the police now? Also, what happened at the construction site?¡±


    Recently, there had been a lot of ridiculous things happening. It was difficult not to suspect that someone was deliberately distracting Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun stood up and pulled Qu Lin out. At the same time, he said to AAi Jin, ¡°A group of hooligans came to the construction site to cause trouble, but nothing much happened. They were all suppressed. I¡¯m going to find the person behind the scenes now. If 1 go back late, it will arouse suspicion. Their goal is to lure me away from the company. In that case, I¡¯ll satisfy them.¡±


    After instructing Mi Jin to keep this matter a secret, Yin Xun and Qu Lin rushed back to the construction site.


    Meanwhile, Mary took the official seal to the place she had agreed to meet the person who had threatened her. It was an old and dilapidated building in a remote suburb. No one lived here anymore, and it was as dilapidated as a building in a horror movie.


    Before entering, she looked around and realized that the windows upstairs were shattered. Some of the window frames had even fallen off. It was obvious that the place had been abandoned for a long time.


    The man had not arrived yet. Carrying the box with the official seal, Mary walked inside on tenterhooks. The man had told her to take the items to the second floor.


    Walking up the stairs, Mary did not dare to look to the side. There was not even a handrail on the stairs. She felt that she would fall down if she was not careful.


    From the moment she came to this area, she realized that there were no surveillance cameras around. No wonder that person asked her to bring the things to this place.


    Other than the occasional chirping of birds, there was no sound at all. It was so quiet that she could almost hear her own heartbeat.


    When she reached the second floor, she sat by the glassless window with the box in her arms. The view here was wide and she could observe the situation outside at any time.


    There was grass and short trees below. She had thought it through. If the other party came in large numbers and tried to do something to her, she would jump down from here. She would probably be injured, but she could at least escape for her life.


    Just as she was waiting anxiously, her phone suddenly rang. It was especially abrupt in this quiet atmosphere, scaring Mary so much that she almost jumped out of the window.


    She took out her phone with trembling hands. When she saw that it was her mother, she heaved a sigh of relief and answered the call.


    ¡°Mary, have you rescued your brother? Is he hurt? Quick, let him speak to me!¡± Mary¡¯s mother called out as soon as she answered.


    Mary comforted her. ¡°Mom, the person 1 contacted isn¡¯t here yet. I¡¯m waiting for them here. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve already taken out everything they asked for. He won¡¯t do anything to Mark.¡±


    However, her mother was obviously not satisfied with her answer. She snapped, ¡°Obviously you¡¯re not worried because you¡¯re not the one who was kidnapped! The person who was caught is your brother. How can you be so calm? Do you actually wish that something would happen to your brother¡­¡±


    Mary let out a long sigh. There it was again. She had been getting calls from her mother every day for the past two days. It was as if she¡¯d been the one responsible for Mark¡¯s capture.


    ¡°Mom, can we talk about this after we¡¯re done? 1 brought the things to a remote place to make a deal. This place is really scary. Moreover, my boss has always been very good to me, but I stole her official seal. I¡¯m already feeling bad enough. Can you not agitate me?¡± Mary had not slept much for the past two days. She was already feeling bad enough, but at this moment, she felt a faint headache.


    Hearing Mary¡¯s words, her mother became even more agitated and scolded loudly, ¡°What right do you have to feel uncomfortable? Do you know that your brother was kidnapped because of you?! What¡¯s so good about your boss treating you well? Your brother is your family.. The most important thing now is to think about how to save your brother¡­¡±

 Chapter 368 - Chapter 368: Her Brother Didnt Come

    Chapter 368: Her Brother Didn¡¯t Come


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing her mother¡¯s words, Mary looked around at the deserted surroundings and felt a little safer. At least, she was not alone right now.


    Mary listened quietly and occasionally responded. After a while, a black car drove up from downstairs.


    Mary instantly became alert and whispered back, ¡°Mom, someone¡¯s here. I¡¯m hanging up.¡±


    After hanging up, she switched her phone to the alarm mode and placed it behind her. With the box in her other hand, she stood vigilantly in front of the window.


    The newcomers came up quickly, but there was only one of them. Mary peeked down. The car was parked below. No one else had come out.


    In other words, these people might not have brought her brother over. Or he might be still in the car.


    The person who came up was wrapped up in tight clothing. He wore a hat, glasses, mask, and other things. Mary could not tell who he was at all.


    ¡°Did you bring it?¡± The man even brought a voice changer. It seemed that he had made sufficient preparations. Even though Mary came over herself, he still did not let down his guard.


    Mary did not answer, but asked the man in black, ¡°Where¡¯s my brother?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s not here,¡± the man in black said flatly.


    Mary scowled at his sunglasses. ¡°You didn¡¯t bring my brother here as promised. There¡¯s no need for me to give you anything unless you let me see my brother.¡±


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯m a fool? If I bring your brother here, you¡¯ll just call the police.¡± The man in black¡¯s gaze landed on the box in Mary¡¯s hand. He pointed at the box and said, ¡°Give that to me and 1¡¯11 let you see your brother. Otherwise, your brother will suffer.¡±


    With that, he took out his phone from his pocket and showed Mary the surveillance footage.


    Mary tried to take the phone, but as soon as she reached out her hand, the man in black brushed it away. ¡°Don¡¯t do anything. Just look. Otherwise, you won¡¯t even have a chance to look at him.¡±


    Mary had no choice. Neither she nor her brother could afford to offend these people now. Mary could only stop insisting. The man in black held up the phone. She looked at the screen and saw her brother, Mark, tied to a pillar. He was wet and had something stuffed in his mouth. They were probably worried he would call for help.


    Mark was wearing white clothes, which were now covered in blood. The people had indeed attacked him.


    ¡°If 1 give you this, will you let my brother go?¡± Mary took a few steps back and turned her head slightly. From the corner of her eye, she glanced at the window behind her.


    If the man in black in front of her really had any abnormal movements, she would jump down without hesitation.


    The man in black saw through Mary¡¯s thoughts and sneered. ¡°Don¡¯t even think about escaping. Do you think you still have a chance to escape at this time? Give it to me. If you jump down from here, the car below will crush you. No one will notice if you die in such a place.¡±


    The man in black took a step forward and stretched out his hand to ask for the item. At the same time, he said, ¡°Give it to me and I¡¯ll let your brother go.¡±


    Mary looked at him, not trusting him.


    The man in black spoke again. ¡°You have no choice but to believe me, unless you don¡¯t care about your brother anymore. You wouldn¡¯t dare, right? After all, your brother is the lifeblood of your parents. Do you think they will forgive you if they learn that this happened to him because of you?¡±


    It seemed that the man knew Marlie¡¯s family situation very well. He was right. If he had not done a proper investigation, how could he have succeeded in kidnapping Mark?


    Mary looked at him. As the man said, there was nothing she could do but trust him.


    ¡°Alright, I hope you can keep your word. 1 used my position as the boss¡¯s assistant to steal her things. My reputation in the industry wall be ruined in the future. 1 have essentially thrown away my career.¡± Mary gritted her teeth.


    Left with no choice, Mary handed the box to the man in black.


    Mary did not trust the man in black, and the man in black was also very wary of her. After he took the box, he did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he squatted down and opened the box to check the contents.


    Knowing that the man in black would not keep his promise, Mary originally wanted to escape while he was checking his things, but when she thought about the car downstairs and the fact that she did not know how many people were in it, she gave up on the idea and just stared nervously at the man, hoping that he would believe her.


    The man in black took out the official seal and looked at it. This kind of company¡¯s official seal had an anti-counterfeiting symbol. It was difficult to forge it.


    After confirming that it was real, the man in black put the official seal in his pocket and threatened Mary, ¡°I¡¯ve got the seal, but 1 still have to lock your brother up for a while. Sorry about this, but 1 might still need you later..¡±

    Just as Mary predicted, the person did not intend to let Mark go.


    Mary frowned and said, ¡°How can you go back on your word? My boss has already discovered that the seal has been lost. Now that I can¡¯t steal anything else for you, she definitely won¡¯t let me off. She might have already called the police! As long as you let my brother go, I¡¯ll stop contacting you. You won¡¯t be implicated¡­¡±


    ¡°Miss Mary.¡± The man in black interrupted Mary. ¡°It¡¯s precisely because we won¡¯t let your brother go that you must bear the responsibility yourself. If we let him go, you won¡¯t have any worries and you¡¯ll cooperate with the police investigation and betray us. Don¡¯t worry, as long as you¡¯re obedient, 1 won¡¯t hurt your brother. However, if you have any ill intentions, I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    After saying that, the man in black turned around and walked out. After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, but he did not turn around. He only said, ¡°The contact number remains unchanged.¡± Then, he left directly.


    Mary wanted to run after him, but she knew it would be useless. She could not defeat the man.


    She went to the window. Just as the man in black had said, he was not the only one who came. When the man in black went down, there was another person who was wearing the same clothes as him down there. The only difference was that he was short and fat. The fat man got out of the car and opened the door for the man in black, as if this person had a very high status.


    After stealing Yin Xun¡¯s seal and failing to save her brother, Mary slumped to the ground, not knowing what to do next.


    While she was at a loss, her phone rang again. She took out her phone and saw that it was her mother.


    Not knowing what to tell her, Mary waited a long time before answering.


    ¡°Why are you so slow? It¡¯s been ages. Did you save your brother?¡± Mary¡¯s mother asked directly when she saw that the call had connected. She was not worried that Mary might be troubled or injured.


    Hearing her mother¡¯s question, an inexplicable feeling of grievance rose in Mary¡¯s heart. She sobbed and said, ¡°No, that person still refuses to let Mark go¡­¡±


    Mary¡¯s mother became anxious when she heard Mark was not rescued. She cursed. ¡°I knew that trash like you couldn¡¯t do anything. You can¡¯t even save your own brother! What¡¯s the point of me raising you? Why wasn¡¯t it you who got kidnapped?!¡±


    Hearing her mother¡¯s words, Mary felt as if a bomb had exploded in her mind. Instantly, there was roaring in her head.


    What did she just hear? Why did her mother say that?


    ¡°Mom, what are you talking about? 1 don¡¯t want my brother to get kidnapped either. Besides, I¡¯m also your child. What are you saying¡­¡± The corners of Mary¡¯s mouth twitched slightly, and her eyes were red. Even her voice was trembling so much that she was almost unable to speak.


    She knew that her parents had always hated her, but she did not expect it to be so serious.


    It was hard to tell if Mary¡¯s mother could hear her grief, but she continued to berate her. ¡°I raised you painstakingly, but what use were you? You keep earning money outside, but you aren¡¯t concerned about your family at all. You knew that your brother doesn¡¯t have a job. If you don¡¯t give him some money to spend, are you counting on your father and me to support him by ourselves? We¡¯re old, how can we still have the energy? It¡¯s all because of you. If we didn¡¯t spend all that money on your university, your brother wouldn¡¯t be like this¡­¡±


    Mary¡¯s mother kept cursing, not giving her a chance to speak.


    The more Mary listened, the more aggrieved she felt. She had stopped asking her family for money since she became an adult. Since high school, she had been working while attending school. She had earned her living expenses and tuition fees. In addition, she had scholarships and had not spent much of her family¡¯s money at all.


    On the contrary, since she started working, most of her salary had been used to supplement her family¡¯s expenses. She only left a portion of her salary every month for herself and still had to make ends meet.


    She worked hard every day and gave her family money. Not only was her family not satisfied, but they also kept cursing her. They said that she was useless as a girl and might as well find a rich man to marry. Only then would she be worth something.


    On the other hand, her younger brother dropped out of school halfway through his studies. He did not do much every day. Even so, her mother praised Mark and said that it was still good to have a son. She asked Mary to help out her younger brother.


    Ever since she was young, Mary had never understood why her mother hated her even though she had done nothing wrong.


    Now, she understood. It was because she was a girl. Although she did not do anything, her identity as a girl was already a problem..

    Originally, her parents wanted a son and were not expecting a daughter. They had no choice but to conceive another child. The second one was a son.


    Having two children was rather more than they could handle, so they vented all their anger on Mary.


    Now that their precious son had been kidnapped because of her work, they would definitely blame her for it.


    Mary¡¯s mother had been scolding Mary over the phone, but Mary was no longer listening. Her mind was in a mess. The words ¡°Why wasn¡¯t it you¡± kept circling around in her head. ¡°Wretched girl, did you hear what 1 said?¡± Mary¡¯s mother suppressed her temper and asked when she saw that Mary did not react after talking for a long time.


    ¡°Yes, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll save my brother and reunite our family.¡± For a moment, Mary suddenly felt that everything she had done for her family was a joke.


    Tears were still flowing freely down her face, but Mary¡¯s voice had become indifferent. She finished quietly and hung up.


    In the past, no matter how her family scolded her, she had endured it because she was her parents¡¯ biological daughter. They were just a little fierce on the surface, but they actually loved her.


    She did not expect that they would happily put her in danger for her brother.


    Mary stood by the window and looked out. It was desolate outside, just like her heart felt at this moment.


    The people who came to get the official seal were Si Fan¡¯s thugs. After they changed their clothes, they went to Blue Fox to look for Si Fan and secretly handed the official seal to him.


    Since the mission was completed, there was no need to let those hooligans pester Yin Xun anymore. Si Fan called Yin Mo and told her that those people could leave.


    After the thug received Yin Mo¡¯s notice, he immediately told Jiang Xing.


    ¡°Big Brother, Yin Mo has contacted us. She said that the mission has been completed. She wants us to go to the agreed place to collect the money.¡± The leader of the thugs reported to Jiang Xing with an obsequious smile on his face.


    Jiang Xing immediately called Yin Xun and told hir what had happened.


    ¡°I¡¯ll be there soon. Wait for me.¡± Yin Xun hung up the phone and told the driver to speed up.


    Fortunately, this was the suburbs, so there were usually no cars on the road. The driver could speed up without worry.


    About five minutes later, Yin Xun and Qu Lin arrived at the construction site. At this moment, the thugs were sitting together near the construction site, and the bodyguards were standing around watching them.


    ¡°Let Yin Mo come to this area,¡± Yin Xun said.


    The thug did not dare to refute Yin Xun and could only do as he was told. However, he did not know what to say, so Yin Xun personally taught him how to tell Yin Mo so that he would not be suspected.


    ¡°Is this really alright? Would Miss Yin really believe it?¡± The thug had some doubts.


    Yin Xun nodded lightly and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. With her intelligence, she won¡¯t suspect anything. Just do as 1 instructed.¡±


    The leader of the thugs followed Yin Xun¡¯s instructions and called Yin Mo. ¡°Miss Yin Mo, can you come over to our side to settle the payment?¡±


    The thug¡¯s voice was on speaker, so Yin Xun could hear everything too.


    Yin Mo asked weakly, ¡°Why? I¡¯m nowhere near that place, and it¡¯s very close to my sister¡¯s construction site. I¡¯m afraid she¡¯ll see me.¡±


    Yin Xun cursed silently in her heart. She knew it long ago.


    The thug explained, ¡°It¡¯s like this because our people are too eye-catching. Moreover, we all have a criminal record. If we walk into the city after doing something bad, it¡¯s easy for something to happen. As such, i¡¯ll have to trouble you to come here and pay us. If you think it¡¯s troublesome, you can just transfer the money to us online.¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t transfer the money online!¡± Yin Mo immediately refused. ¡°If I do that, there will be evidence. Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll go look for you.¡±


    With that, she hung up.


    Jiang Xing asked Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, what should we do next?¡±


    Yin Xun glanced at the thug leader beside her. When the hooligan saw Yin Xun looking at him, he immediately shivered and smiled apologetically.


    ¡°Other than the people here, did someone else go inside to cause trouble?¡± Yin Xun had almost forgotten about that other person. That person should be watching.


    When the bodyguard heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, he immediately rubbed his fists and took a step closer.


    When the hooligan saw this, he thought that he was going to be beaten up again. He quickly explained, ¡°No, we only have so many men, and they are all here! Moreover, Miss Yin Mo only asked us to scare people. She did not really ask us to cause trouble or fight. Our goal is only to get money.. We will not do anything super illegal!¡±

 Chapter 371 - Chapter 371: It Hurts

    Chapter 371: It Hurts


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The hooligan was afraid that Yin Xun would not believe him, so he raised his hand and swore he was telling the truth.


    Yin Xun knew that there was no need for the hooligan to lie to her at a time like this because it would not do him any good.


    Since it was not them, it meant that the person was arranged by someone else. Yin Mo did not have such a brain, and according to her Priestess personality in the original text, she would never do anything to hurt others.


    In other words, this person was most likely sent by Si Fan directly.


    Si Fan was using Yin Mo¡¯s incident as a cover. That way, even if anything happened later, it would be Yin Mo who took the fall and it had nothing to do with him.


    Yin Xun lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. If she was not mistaken, that other person would definitely say that Yin Mo gave him orders, and Yin Mo would admit to this crime because she loved Si Fan.


    Jiang Xing walked over to Yin Xun¡¯s side and asked softly, ¡°President Yin, what should we do now?¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Let¡¯s wait for Yin Mo to come.¡±


    Perhaps Yin Mo was also in a hurry to resolve the matter; after the call with the hooligan, she rushed over.


    She did not dare to get too close to the construction site. The hooligans followed Yin Xun¡¯s instructions and went to the roadside not far from the construction site to meet Yin Mo.


    The leader of the thugs was still arrogant and domineering when he first arrived. Now that he was meeting Yin Mo under Yin Xun¡¯s surveillance, his face looked unnatural, and even his hands were trembling.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Mo noticed the hooligan¡¯s abnormality and asked curiously.


    The hooligan smiled awkwardly and explained, ¡°It¡¯s fine, it¡¯s fine. I just haven¡¯t done such a thing for a long time, so I¡¯m nervous. We followed your request and caused trouble at the construction site. We pestered them to stop work and also made trouble for Yin Xun, so our mission is considered completed, right?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Thank you for your hard work. However, I might need your help later.¡±


    The hooligan was surprised. ¡°You still want to attack the construction site in the future?¡±


    ¡°Are you able to kidnap someone?¡± Yin Mo stared at the hooligans. Under the hooligans¡¯ increasingly shocked gazes, she quickly explained, ¡°It¡¯s just a simple kidnapping, not hurting anyone. I just wanted to scare her.¡±


    ¡°So who are you trying to kidnap?¡± the thug asked.


    ¡°My sister, Yin Xun¡­¡± As she spoke, Yin Mo handed a bag of money to the hooligan. ¡°If you agree to help, I¡¯ll give you double the reward.¡±


    The hooligan immediately took the money and did not even look at it. He took two steps back and apologized to Yin Mo. ¡°I am sorry, Miss Yin Mo. I might not be able to agree to this request of yours.¡±


    Yin Mo did not understand. ¡°Why?¡±


    The hooligan raised his head and looked to the side. Under Yin Mo¡¯s puzzled gaze, Yin Xun, Jiang Xing, and her two female bodyguards slowly walked out from behind a brick wall.


    The moment Yin Mo saw Yin Xun appear, she immediately turned tail and ran.


    Her car was not far away. As long as she got into the car, she would not be caught.


    However, how could she outrun a professional bodyguard? Tan Ai¡¯s reaction was also fast. The moment she saw Yin Mo run, she rushed over. Yin Mo had only run a few steps when she was caught by her.


    ¡°Let go of me!¡± Yin Mo struggled with all her might, but Tan Ai¡¯s strength was so great that she could not break free at all.


    ¡°So you know what you¡¯re doing is wrong. Your reaction is quite fast. You sure know how to escape.¡± Yin Xun slowly walked in front of Yin Mo and sized her up.


    It could be seen that Yin Mo had not been living well recently. The clothes she was wearing now were no longer those of the fancy brands in the past. Instead, they were ordinary and looked very cheap.


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. She did not expect Yin Mo to be so poor that she could not even afford branded clothes. This was not like her.


    Logically speaking, Yin Mo had a lot of pocket money. No matter how disappointed Yin Cheng was in her, he would not deduct her allowance. He had always given her pocket money. Could it be that Si Fan was so poor now that he had set his sights on her pocket money?


    Yin Mo saw that she had no chance to escape. With so many of Yin Xun¡¯s people around her, especially the woman who was holding her, she gave up struggling.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was sizing her up, Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were filled with tears. She asked Yin Xun in an extremely aggrieved voice, ¡°Sister, tell her to let go of me. Let¡¯s talk things out. She¡¯s too strong. It hurts.¡±


    ¡°It hurts? You can still feel pain?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s gaze instantly turned cold. She turned to Tan Ai and said, ¡°Bring her to the construction site.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Tan Ai agreed..

    Tan Ai pulled Yin Mo to Yin Xun¡¯s office. Jiang Xing was very perceptive and knew that this was the Yin family¡¯s personal business. It was not appropriate to let others in, so he stopped them.


    The leader of the hooligans asked Jiang Xing respectfully, ¡°Um, Big Brother, we¡¯ve done what you asked us to do. Can we leave now?¡±


    Jiang Xing looked at the hooligan coldly. The hooligan was so frightened by his gaze that he immediately lowered his head and hugged the money bag in his arms tightly.


    ¡°Why? Do you want to leave after doing something bad and getting money?¡± Jiang Xing sneered and gestured to the bodyguards to watch him.


    The bodyguard nodded. Then, he grabbed the hooligan¡¯s collar and dragged him to the previous place they were at. He stood at the side and watched the thugs.


    At this moment, Yu Tu brought the troublemaker over.


    Jiang Xing looked at Yu Tu and asked curiously, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°These people tried to lure us away. These hooligans baited us to the front of the site.¡± Then, Yu Tu pointed at the person beside him and continued, ¡°Meanwhile, this person secretly went to the back to cause trouble. Fortunately, President Yin had the foresight to sense that something was wrong from the beginning. She asked me to go to the surveillance room to keep an eye on things, so I saw what this person did.¡±


    ¡°Didn¡¯t we destroy all the surveillance cameras? How can there still be cameras?¡± The person who was grabbed by Yu Tu asked in surprise.


    When Yu Tu heard his words, he reached out and hit him on the head. Then, he snarled, ¡°How can you still have the nerve to ask questions? Do you know how much the company will lose because of your commotion today?! Our President Yin loves money the most. If you¡¯re done talking, let¡¯s see how you compensate.¡±


    Jiang Xing frowned and asked, ¡°What did he do?¡±


    Yu Tu laughed coldly and kicked the man beside him as he said, ¡°This person went to the back and tried to cut the safety rope. It has not been severed yet. If President Yin had not discovered it, the workers would not have known. It would definitely have caused a large number of casualties. That would be a huge incident. No one would be able to bear the consequences!¡±


    ¡°Are you guys on the same side?¡± Yu Tu was not around just now, so he did not hear what the hooligan said to Yin Xun. He asked them about it again.


    The hooligan glanced at the man beside Yu Tu and quickly denied it. ¡°No, no. I don¡¯t even know him!¡±


    When Yu Tu saw this, he did not ask further.


    Inside the office, Yin Xun did not waste her breath on Yin Mo. After she closed the office door, she sat down on the chair.


    Yin Mo wanted to sit down too, but Tan Ai pulled her back.


    Yin Mo frowned at Tan Ai and said, ¡°I¡¯m Yin Xun¡¯s sister. Why are you pulling me back? She¡¯s my sister. I won¡¯t hurt her.¡±


    Upon hearing Yin Mo¡¯s words, Tan Ai¡¯s face was cold and she did not react. She continued to grab Yin Mo¡¯s arm and forced her to stand beside her.


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°Even if you want to do something to me, it depends on whether you are able to.¡±


    Yin Xun did not want to look at Yin Mo¡¯s face which was somewhat similar to hers.


    Seeing Yin Mo¡¯s pitiful expression, she felt a little disgusted.


    She took out her phone and scrolled through it. Yin Xun saw a message from Mary.


    When she saw the content of the message, Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up into a satisfied smile. She replied to Mary¡¯s message.


    Yin Mo saw that Yin Xun was ignoring her and asked, ¡°Sister, why did you bring me here? I didn¡¯t do anything wrong.¡±


    ¡°You didn¡¯t do anything wrong?¡± Yin Xun glanced at her. ¡°Do you know how much money we¡¯ll lose if you stop work at the construction site for a day? Do you know how many things you¡¯ll delay? Can you compensate?¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun did not intend to let her go, Yin Mo finally stopped saying sweet words. Instead, she raised her head arrogantly and looked at Yin Xun with slight disdain. ¡°Then what do you plan to do to me?¡±


    Yin Xun looked up at Yin Mo and said coldly, ¡°Let¡¯s wait for a while. I¡¯ve already informed Dad. He¡¯ll probably be here soon. If you have anything to say, wait for him to arrive. We can take this opportunity to settle everything once and for all.¡±


    ¡°I just got someone to scare you, didn¡¯t I? I didn¡¯t ask them to do anything bad. Besides, our company is so big. Why would we care about a small loss? Even if you find Dad, I¡¯m not scared because I have a clear conscience,¡± Yin Mo said nonchalantly.


    Yin Xun did not respond to her. Based on what Yin Mo had said, Yin Xun knew that it was useless to talk to her; Yin Mo would not understand anyway and would only think that she was the one being bullied..

    Chapter 373: Daddy Yin Is Here


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Since that was the case, she would leave everything to Yin Cheng. Yin Cheng was more suitable to resolve this matter than she was.


    Yin Mo wanted to say something else because she did not think she had done anything wrong. However, when she saw that Yin Xun would not even look at her, she knew that it was useless no matter what she said, so she stopped talking.


    The office fell into silence.


    Yin Xun had informed Yin Cheng before she came here to Xintao, so Yin Cheng arrived very soon.


    However, as soon as he entered, he saw a group of people standing in front of the office building. Everyone¡¯s expression was strange, as if something big had happened.


    It was noon and the sun was shining brightly. The light was blinding. When these people stood under the sunlight, their faces were red from the sun and they were sweating profusely.


    Yin Cheng frowned. If this situation continued for a while longer, these people might get a heatstroke.


    He walked in and patrolled around, trying to find a person in charge that he knew.


    Ordinary employees had never seen Yin Cheng before, not even Jiang Xing, so they did not know who he was. However, they saw that he did not dress like an ordinary person, so no one stopped him.


    When Yin Cheng approached the office, Yu Tu saw him and immediately greeted him. ¡°Chairman, you¡¯re here.¡±


    When Jiang Xing heard who Yin Cheng was, he reacted quickly and said, ¡°Hello, Chairman!¡±


    ¡°Mm.¡± Yin Cheng nodded indifferently. He looked at the workers in work clothes with a puzzled expression. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you working?¡±


    Yu Tu explained, ¡°Chairman, something happened at the construction site. We cannot start work yet. As for the specific reason, we will wait for President Yin to tell you.¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at the people around him. Before he came, Yin Xun had told him briefly that it was thugs had come to the construction site to cause trouble.


    He looked at the hooligans squatting on the ground and frowned. ¡°Since we¡¯ve subdued these people, we¡¯ll just hand them over to the police later. The rest of you, disperse. Go do whatever you need to do. It¡¯s so hot here. You¡¯ll get a heatstroke.¡±


    ¡°We can¡¯t start work yet, or the workers¡¯ lives will be in danger.¡± Yin Xun heard the commotion outside from inside the house. She pushed open the door and walked out. At the same time, she said to the others, ¡°Go find a cool place. I¡¯ll settle your matters after I¡¯m done here.¡±


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡± Yu Tu and Jiang Xing both agreed in unison.


    When Yin Cheng saw Yin Xun open the door to let him in, he no longer paid attention to the people outside.


    He walked into the office and saw Yin Mo, who was being held down by Tan Ai. He asked in confusion, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I¡¯m doing this for the Yin family and my sister. I didn¡¯t mean any harm. Please don¡¯t misunderstand me¡­¡± As soon as she saw Yin Cheng, Yin Mo immediately shed tears of grievance.


    She knew that Yin Cheng doted on her the most. No matter what she did wrong, as long as she cried a few times, Yin Cheng would give in to her.


    However, no matter how much she cried this time, Yin Cheng did not say anything to show concern. Instead, he just looked at her calmly and said, ¡°Then tell me what happened.¡±


    Yin Mo told Yin Cheng about how she had hired a hooligan to scare Yin Xun and stop her from working on the construction site.


    In the end, she did not forget to defend herself. ¡°I really don¡¯t have any intention of hurting anyone. Daddy, you should know me the best, right? I can¡¯t even bear to hurt a little bug, so why would I hurt others? 1 just wanted to scare Sister. I don¡¯t have any ill intentions. I¡¯m just helping Sister¡­¡±


    Hearing Yin Mo¡¯s words, Yin Cheng¡¯s face instantly darkened. He said helplessly, ¡°You were the one who tried to scare your sister, so why are you crying? Your sister didn¡¯t hit you, did she? You look perfectly fine and you¡¯re not injured.¡±


    Yin Mo sobbed as she explained, ¡°Because Sister wrongly accused me. She kept saying that I tried to harm her and even got someone to attack me. Dad, I really didn¡¯t mean anything bad!¡±


    Yin Xun had been listening quietly at the side. She looked at Tan Ai in confusion and mouthed, ¡°Did I say that just now?¡±


    Tan Ai shook her head coldly.


    Yin Cheng also saw the interaction between Yin Xun and Tan Ai, and his face darkened. He wondered why Yin Mo, who was always so obedient, would lie.


    He knew Yin Xun very well. At the very least, Yin Xun would not say such threatening words; she would rather take action directly.


    ¡°You said that you wanted to help your sister. You hired hooligans to threaten the construction site. How are you going to help your sister with that? Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re trying to train her courage?¡± Yin Cheng had already vaguely guessed it.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at Yin Mo. Seeing that she was taking too long to answer, she said, ¡°Let me speak for her..¡±

 Chapter 374 - Chapter 374: Exposed

    Chapter 374: Exposed


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°The reason you found so many hooligans to cause trouble is actually to lure me away. Si Fan asked you to do this, right?¡± Yin Xun asked Yin Mo calmly.


    Yin Mo shook her head. ¡°No, it¡¯s not¡­¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be in a hurry to deny it,¡± Yin Xun continued. ¡°You know very well whether Si Fan asked you to do this or not. We all know already, so it¡¯s useless even if you deny it. Do you know why Si Fan asked you to do this? He kidnapped Mary¡¯s brother and threatened Mary to steal the official seal in my office.


    ¡°If 1 was in the company, Mary wouldn¡¯t have the chance to do this. Si Fan can¡¯t resolve the crisis of the Blue Fox because of Xintao¡¯s interference, so he wants to cause trouble for Xintao. After luring me away, Mary can successfully steal the seal. That punk from before asked if you could end their mission, but you said no. You told him to wait for further notice. When Mary¡¯s mission is completed, Si Fan will inform you that you can end it on this side. Only then will you pay those thugs¡­¡±


    ¡°No, 1 didn¡¯t. What evidence do you have to prove that 1 said all that!¡± Before Yin Xun could finish, Yin Mo interrupted her anxiously.


    By now, her face had gone pale and her eyes had been constantly blinking.


    Yin Xun smiled and picked up a pen from the desk beside her. She opened the cap and revealed a miniature camera inside.


    Yin Xun plugged the camera into the computer beside her. Yin Cheng walked over and saw the content and the recording.


    From the moment Yin Xun came to the construction site until Yin Mo was arrested, although there were a few breaks during this period, the key parts were filmed and recorded.


    ¡°Dad, you should be very familiar with this thing, right? As you can see, there are no editing traces, which proves that 1 didn¡¯t synthesize the footage. Moreover, so many people were present at that time and everyone heard it. 1 can¡¯t fake this situation.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s gaze instantly became sharp. She stared at Yin Mo. Yin Mo knew that she was in the wrong and lowered her head without saying a word.


    ¡°If this incident only caused some financial losses to the construction site, then it¡¯s fine. The most important thing is that you stole my seal. Yin Mo, you¡¯re already in your twenties. Don¡¯t you know the importance of a company¡¯s secrets? Do you know that Xintao is at its most popular now? It¡¯s also closely related to our Yin family. Once something happens to Xintao, do you think the Yin family can safely withdraw? Si Fan¡¯s goal is to destroy Xintao. Do you really want to see your sister¡¯s company become worthless?¡± Yin Xun stared at Yin Mo and asked word by word.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s expression darkened greatly. He stared at Yin Mo and asked in disbelief, ¡°Mo¡¯er, will you really help Si Fan do such a thing? Xun is your elder sister. Even if you don¡¯t like her, you can¡¯t do such a thing to her. Do you know the consequences?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes widened, and her face turned even paler.


    She weakly defended herself. ¡°I didn¡¯t. How could I want to hurt my sister? Fan only¡­ No, 1 did everything. It has nothing to do with Fan!¡±


    Just as Yin Mo was about to mention Si Fan, she suddenly remembered Si Fan¡¯s instructions. Si Fan said that if the matter was accidentally exposed, she absolutely could not say that it was his idea.


    She could only say good things about him in front of the Yin family. She could not say bad things about him.


    At the thought of this, Yin Mo immediately changed her mind and took all the blame.


    Yin Xun saw that she was still speaking up for Si Fan at a time like this. He sneered and said, ¡°Yin Mo, let me ask you. Other than those hooligans who caused trouble at the door, is there anyone else who went to do something else?¡±


    ¡°No.¡± Yin Mo bit her lower lip and denied it. ¡°Everyone is there. We didn¡¯t mean to cause trouble. How could there be other people involved?¡±


    ¡°Take a look at this.¡± Yin Xun gestured for Yin Mo to come over, then showed Yin Mo the images captured by the pinhole camera.


    They could see a man holding a knife and cutting safety ropes everywhere. He had not completely severed them but only cut them halfway. He did not let go of any of them.


    If one did not deliberately check, no one would discover such a small fault. However, such a small crack would definitely break if it suddenly bore a person¡¯s weight.


    ¡°I can understand if you want to attack Xintao because there is no love lost between the two of us. Moreover, Xintao is Blue Fox¡¯s opponent. 1 know that you don¡¯t acknowledge me as your sister because of Si Fan. However, Donggang Modern City belongs to the Yin family. If something happens here, what do you think will happen to the Yin family?¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo coldly.


    ¡°No! That¡¯s impossible! 1 didn¡¯t do it. How could 1 let someone do such a thing to our company¡­¡± Yin Mo shook her head and denied it repeatedly..

 Chapter 375 - Chapter 375: Why Did You Hit Me

    Chapter 375: Why Did You Hit Me


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun saw Yin Mo continue to deny it without a care for the consequences. Looking at her, her emotions were very unstable and she would not listen to words.


    Smack!


    Yin Xun raised her hand and slapped Yin Mo without hesitation. The sound was loud and clear.


    The part of Yin Mo¡¯s face that was hit instantly became red and swollen, and the palm print on it was clearly visible.


    ¡°Sister, why¡­why did you hit me?¡± Yin Mo finally calmed down. She raised her hand to cover her face that had been slapped and looked at Yin Xun aggrievedly.


    ¡°Xun, you¡­¡± Yin Cheng was also shocked by Yin Xun. He wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he felt Yin Mo indeed deserved a beating for doing such a thing.


    At the same time, he complained in his heart. He knew his daughter well. If Yin Xun wanted to hit someone, she would not resort to threats. She would hit the person directly.


    When Yin Xun heard Yin Cheng¡¯s voice, she turned her head slightly and asked calmly, ¡°Dad, are you upset by this?¡±


    ¡°No, it¡¯s your sister who made the mistake first. It makes sense for you to educate her,¡± Yin Cheng quickly said.


    Yin Xun turned to look at Yin Mo again. Seeing that Yin Mo was finally willing to listen to her, she continued, ¡°Let me tell you the consequences. Occasionally, one person might get into an accident at the construction site. However, if this happens to many workers, it will be a major incident.


    ¡°If this happens, the company¡¯s reputation will plummet. No one will dare to work with us in the future. The construction company can¡¯t even guarantee its own workers¡¯ safety. They won¡¯t know that their seatbelts have been cut. How can the company guarantee the safety of the site?


    ¡°Once the public opinion gets out of hand, the construction site will stop working. There will no longer be any companies that want to work with us. The capital chain will be cut off, and one thing will lead to another. In the end, our Yin family will go bankrupt. At that time, it will be considered a good outcome if we are just broke. The worst outcome is that we will be in debt. From then on, we will live a life of hiding from our debts! If we are found by debt collectors, we will be beaten up and arrested. Anything can happen.


    ¡°Yin Mo, when that time comes, do you think you can still be the daughter of a rich family? Do you think Si Fan will still want you if you have nothing and are covered in debt?


    ¡°He¡¯s already put in so much effort for Blue Fox. How can he still find time to care about you and deal with this mess for you? I know that you understand. You¡¯re just using the name of kindness to gain benefits for yourself. How do you feel when you hear that your interests will be harmed? Is this the outcome you want?¡±


    As Yin Xun spoke, she pressed closer to Yin Mo step by step. Yin Mo was so frightened by Yin Xun¡¯s cold gaze that she did not dare to raise her head to look at her. She retreated step by step.


    It was not until she retreated to the edge and had no way out that she stood tightly against the wall. Her body was trembling slightly. It was hard to tell if she had repented or was just frightened by the outcome.


    Seeing how flustered she was, Yin Xun took a step back and remained silent. She wanted to see what Yin Mo would say.


    As soon as Yin Xun retreated, Yin Mo immediately collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily. Her tears fell like pearls on a broken string, and she could not say a word.


    When Yin Cheng saw how frightened Yin Mo was, he helplessly covered his face with his hands.


    Yin Xun was exaggerating. Construction sites were not safe places to begin with. There were many news reports of accidents, but no construction company closed down because of this. At most, they would compensate and cooperate with the authority¡¯s inspection. Everything would continue in the future.


    However, Yin Mo usually did not look into business matters, so she did not understand any of the twists and turns. She was really intimidated by Yin Xun.


    Yin Cheng looked at her and had no intention of comforting her. Ever since Yin Mo got together with Si Fan, she had done many bad things. Even if she did not mean any harm now, who could guarantee that the things she did in the future would not be serious?


    This time, Yin Xun discovered it in advance. If Yin Xun did not discover it next time and Yin Mo really did something irreparable, it would be too late.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo quietly. She saw Yin Mo sitting on the ground and crying without saying a word.


    Yin Xun gradually lost her patience. She squatted down and reached out to grab Yin Mo¡¯s collar, forcing her to look at her.


    ¡°Yin Mo, let me ask you. Will you only be happy when you see the Yin family go bankrupt and fall into ruin? You destroyed your own family for Si Fan. Is this your ultimate goal? Also, you were the one who sold Mary¡¯s information to Si Fan, right? Didn¡¯t you claim to be a kind person? Why did you do such a thing to Mary?¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Yin Mo opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but in the end, she could not say anything..

 Chapter 376 - Chapter 376: Dont Call the Police

    Chapter 376: Don¡¯t Call the Police


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Seeing that Yin Mo was silent, Yin Xun snorted and continued, ¡°Do you think you can pretend that you didn¡¯t do these things by staying silent? Are you going to pretend that you don¡¯t know about the harm Si Fan has done to Mary and our family?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Sister. 1 didn¡¯t mean to hurt you. Fan also said that he didn¡¯t mean any harm. After all, we¡¯re a family¡­¡± Yin Mo still wanted to defend herself.


    ¡°Don¡¯t tell me that we¡¯re family, and don¡¯t call me Sister. I don¡¯t want relatives like you who kidnap and threaten their own family members! This time, 1 discovered it. If I didn¡¯t, who knows what kind of disaster would have happened!¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng and asked him, ¡°Dad, Yin Mo is your daughter. What do you think we should do?¡±


    ¡°Ugh.¡± Yin Cheng sighed. This time, Yin Mo¡¯s actions were too much. He walked to Yin Mo¡¯s side and asked in a low voice, ¡°Mo¡¯er, if Si Fan really kidnapped Mary¡¯s brother, can you let him go?¡±


    Yin Mo shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m not sure about this. Dad, wait for me to ask Si Fan if he¡¯s okay. 1¡¯11 definitely help Sister with this¡­¡±


    As she spoke, Yin Mo took out her phone, looking like she was about to call Si Fan.


    Seeing this, Yin Xun immediately went forward and snatched the phone away.


    ¡°Sis¡­¡±


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯ll let you contact Si Fan now?¡± Yin Xun stared at Yin Mo coldly.


    Yin Cheng was also stunned by Yin Xun¡¯s actions. He asked in confusion, ¡°Xun, if you don¡¯t let Mo¡¯er call Si Fan, how are you going to help Mary save her brother?¡±


    ¡°I have a plan for this, but 1 don¡¯t need Yin Mo¡¯s help. Dad, Yin Mo has made such a huge mistake. Are you still going to forgive her? Shouldn¡¯t you call the police? She has already made numerous mistakes. If we forgive her, I¡¯m afraid our Yin family will really fall because of her in the future,¡± Yin Xun said to Yin Cheng as she put Yin Mo¡¯s phone away.


    Yin Cheng took a deep look at Yin Mo. Although he could not bear to see her like this, when he thought of what Yin Mo had done, he steeled his heart and took out his phone to make a call.


    When Yin Mo saw that Yin Cheng was really going to call the police, she quickly cried and stood up to stop him. ¡°Dad, I¡¯m begging you. Don¡¯t call the police. No, I¡¯m your daughter. Are you willing to see me have a criminal record?¡±


    Yin Mo held onto the phone tightly and Yin Cheng could not continue to make the call. He could not bear to push Yin Mo away, so he said bitterly, ¡°You wretched girl. Is it really worth it to lose your family for Si Fan? Mo¡¯er, think about it carefully. Does Si Fan really love you?


    ¡°He tempted you to do all kinds of harmful things, but aren¡¯t these things ending up hurting you? He said that he would marry you in the future and we would become a family, but how long have you been together by now? He has always made promises, but has he really taken action? The kindness he shows to you is only because you are useful to him. Once your usefulness is gone, he will definitely abandon you immediately!¡±


    ¡°No, that¡¯s not true. Fan truly loves me¡­¡± Yin Mo denied as she cried.


    Seeing that Yin Mo was still obstinate, Yin Cheng continued to persuade her. ¡°Does he really like you? This time, he instigated you to make trouble with your sister. On the surface, he didn¡¯t do anything, but behind your back, he let others do other bad things. In the end, he pushed all the blame on you. Even if Xun didn¡¯t find out that you did it today, once there¡¯s a safety accident at the construction site, do you think the police won¡¯t be able to trace it to you? Do you really want to pay the price of destroying your sister to help Si Fan? Why would the person who loves you make you hurt your family?¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Yin Mo¡¯s expression was pained. She bit her lower lip tightly as tears streamed down her face.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, can you stop being so naive and think a bit more?¡±


    Yin Cheng saw the guilty look on Yin Mo¡¯s face and thought that his words had worked. He was delighted and continued to persuade her. ¡°There are so many men in the world, and you¡¯re so outstanding. Are you worried that you can¡¯t find another person you love? Si Fan isn¡¯t worthy of you treating him like this. Since you¡¯ve discussed the plans with him and you know that he kidnapped Mary¡¯s younger brother, how about this? Daddy will call the police. Tell them the details. As long as you sincerely promise to change, no one will blame you.¡±


    ¡°Xun, what do you think?¡± Yin Cheng turned around and winked at Yin Xun. The direct victim of this matter was Yin Xun. Only if Yin Xun agreed could he make this decision.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo and then at Yin Cheng. Seeing that Yin Cheng kept winking at her, she immediately understood Yin Cheng¡¯s intentions..

 Chapter 377 - Chapter 377: It Wasnt Her

    Chapter 377: It Wasn¡¯t Her


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Actually, in terms of character, Yin Mo was indeed not a bad person who would take the initiative to stir up trouble. Every time she did something bad, it was Si Fan who instigated her.


    It was actually useless to deal with Yin Mo. Only by taking down Si Fan would they truly be able to prevent future troubles.


    From the beginning, Si Fan was her only enemy. If Yin Mo really realized that she was in the wrong this time and accepted that Si Fan¡¯s act of kidnapping and harming people was intolerable, she could even forgive Yin Mo for her past mistakes.


    Although their relationship would not improve, at least she would not hold it against Yin Mo for the stupid things she had done in the past.


    Putting aside the matter with the hooligans, just the fact that Si Fan had kidnapped someone was enough for him to spend a few years in jail. If that could be done, Yin Xun could focus all her energy on business. By the time Si Fan was released from prison, he would probably not be able to defeat her even if he used all his tricks.


    In addition, she had long seen that Si Fan did not have any business acumen. He relied on brute force to do things. Since he could not win, she would just get rid of this person.


    With no opponents, her business dealings would naturally be done.


    Yin Xun thought that Xintao would continue to expand in the future and would develop many more projects. Since the company was still new, Si Fan had already tried everything he could to oppose it. If he realized that he could not defeat her, he might use some underhanded methods in the future.


    In the future, Yin Xun would be busier and busier. It was impossible for her to focus all her energy on Si Fan. If she could deal with Si Fan once and for all now, that would be good too.


    Thinking of this, Yin Xun nodded at Yin Cheng to show that she agreed.


    Yin Cheng looked at her approvingly, then turned to look at Yin Mo, waiting for her answer.


    ¡°I, I¡­¡± Yin Mo looked conflicted as she lowered her head.


    Yin Cheng did not rush her. He wanted her to figure it out herself.


    He felt that since he had already made things so clear, it was impossible for Yin Mo to protect Si Fan anymore.


    However, he did not expect Yin Mo to reject the idea after thinking for a moment. ¡°Dad, I won¡¯t give Fan up. He didn¡¯t do anything. Everything was done by me. Call the police and arrest me!¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    She always knew that Yin Mo was like this.


    Yin Xun was not surprised, but Yin Cheng was furious. He pointed at Yin Mo, his hands trembling. ¡°Yin Mo, are you going to anger me to death before you¡¯re satisfied?!¡±


    Yin Cheng walked to the door and opened it. When he saw that Yu Tu and the man who had caused trouble were still standing at the door, he let the man in.


    ¡°Let me ask you, who sent you to the construction site to cause trouble?¡± Yin Cheng stared at the man and asked.


    The man looked up. At this moment, his face was bruised and swollen. It was obvious that he had just been beaten up.


    He looked at Yin Mo, then looked at Yin Xun. He pointed at Yin Mo and said, ¡°M-Miss Yin Mo asked me to do it.¡±


    Seeing that the man was still lying, Yu Tu went up and kicked him. ¡°Tell me the truth, or I¡¯ll hit you again!¡±


    ¡°No, no, no, I¡¯ll say it¡­¡± The man was kicked to the ground by Yu Tu. His nose was smashed to the ground and immediately bled.


    He was so shocked that he immediately changed his words. ¡°Yes, that was a lie. It¡¯s not Miss Yin Mo. It¡¯s another man, but I don¡¯t know his name. He uses a voice changer when he speaks. I don¡¯t know who it is, but he gave me the money. I was happy as long as I have the money, so I didn¡¯t ask in detail.¡±


    ¡°What about your transfer records?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    The man shook his head. ¡°We weren¡¯t trading online. We were using cash. The man put the cash in one place and told me to pick it up.¡±


    Yin Xun knew that the man was not lying. Although Si Fan was not talented in doing business, he was very talented in doing illegal things. He knew how to escape unscathed.


    She had asked everything she needed to ask. Yin Xun gestured for Yu Tu to send the man out.


    After they left and closed the door, she said to Yin Mo, ¡°Did you see that? It¡¯s obvious that Si Fan did this, but he pushed it all to you. As long as you identify him, this matter will have nothing to do with you. You don¡¯t have to go to jail.¡±


    Yin Cheng also pointed at the door and said to Yin Mo, ¡°Can¡¯t you see? You didn¡¯t do this, but Si Fan pushed it all onto you. He wants you to shoulder it alone. Do you really have to sacrifice so much for such an irresponsible man?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I had no choice but to do this. It¡¯s all Sister¡¯s fault. She forced him into a dead end. Now, no one can help him except me. If I betrayed him too, how pitiful would he be?¡± Yin Mo cried..

    ¡°Then it¡¯s okay to hurt your sister?¡± Yin Cheng was extremely disappointed.


    Yin Mo sobbed, ¡°No, I didn¡¯t hurt her. Dad, I really didn¡¯t mean to hurt my sister. Please don¡¯t blame Fan! I really love him. 1 did everything for him willingly, lie used to live a really miserable life. My heart hurts for him. Now that I see him smiling because of success, do you know how happy 1 am? I never asked for anything else. 1 just hope that he can fulfill his wish and live a smooth life in the future!¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    When she saw Yin Mo¡¯s reaction just now, she thought that Yin Mo was finally enlightened, and a glimmer of hope appeared in her heart.


    She immediately thought of the portrayals of the two main characters in the original novel. One was a top-notch little white flower in love. For the sake of her lover, she would still love the male lead even if her entire family was killed and her lover found another woman.


    The other was a top-notch master brainwasher. Even if he did not love Yin Mo and did so many things to hurt her, he could still persuade Yin Mo to change her mind about him.


    When these two people were combined, no one could separate them.


    That was also a good thig. The two of them could be together forever. With that, that they would no longer harm others.


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at Yin Mo and completely dismissed the idea of Yin Mo incriminating Si Fan.


    She had gotten over it, but Yin Cheng had not.


    ¡°How did 1 give birth to such a stupid daughter? Why are you still speaking up for him at a time like this?! Si Fan is just an ordinary person, not some peerless elite. How exactly did he seduce you to make you willing to fight your family for him?!¡± Yin Cheng was so angry that his entire body was trembling and his face was red.


    Even at this time, Yin Mo was still speaking up for Si Fan. ¡°He¡¯s really good to me, Dad. He hasn¡¯t mentioned marriage because it¡¯s not the right time yet. He said that he¡¯s going to give me the grandest wedding on the day his business succeeds.¡±


    Hearing Yin Mo claim that Si Fan treated her well, Yin Xun was amused. ¡°Si Fan has so many women around him. Are you sure he really loves you?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s casual words sounded like a shocking secret to Yin Mo, and she was stunned.


    She shouted as if she had gone crazy, ¡°Fan loves me the most. Of course, he loves me. Who else can he love other than me?! I¡¯ve always been by his side. I¡¯ve always helped him. 1 comforted him when he was at his saddest. We¡¯ve always been in love. No one can tear us apart!


    ¡°What¡¯s the use of saying all this now? It¡¯s all because of you that I¡¯m doing this! You¡¯re my sister. You know how much Fan likes me, but you still targeted him and forced him to a corner. 1 le only asked me for help when he was desperate! If you really treat me as your sister, can¡¯t you take a step back and not make things hard Fan?!¡±


    Yin Xun did not expect her casual question to cause such a huge reaction from Yin Mo.


    Only when she hit the nail on the head would someone get so agitated. Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo and saw her angry expression. She immediately understood a little. It seemed like Yin Mo knew that Si Fan did not love her. It was all her own wishful thinking.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯ve never treated you as my younger sister, so I can¡¯t agree to that. Also, remember, I did not make things difficult for Si Fan because I don¡¯t like him. The reason he¡¯s in such a state now is because he¡¯s weak and is just a piece of trash.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s going too far! Fan is not trash!¡± Yin Mo immediately retorted when she saw Yin Xun criticizing Si Fan again.


    Yin Xun said to Yin Cheng, ¡°Dad, since Yin Mo won¡¯t listen to your advice, then forget it. Let¡¯s just do our job and hand her over to the police. I believe the police will find the truth about Si Fan.¡±


    Yin Cheng took a deep breath and nodded. He pulled away from Yin Mo¡¯s hand and prepared to call the police.


    Unexpectedly, Yin Mo rushed over again. She knelt in front of Yin Cheng and begged him. ¡°Dad! Please don¡¯t call the police. If you call the police, then I¡­¡± Yin Mo seemed to have made a decision. Her gaze suddenly became firm. She gritted her teeth and said, ¡°Then 1¡¯11 die!¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Yin Cheng did not expect that the daughter he had raised for so many years would end up threatening him with her life because of one man. Before he could catch his breath, he felt dizzy and fell backward.


    Tan Ai reacted quickly and rushed over. She grabbed a chair and placed it behind Yin Cheng. Yin Cheng fell onto the chair..

    Chapter 379: Death Threats

    Yin Xun quickly moved to Yin Cheng¡¯s side and gently patted his back to calm him down.


    Yin Mo did not expect her words to anger Yin Cheng to this extent. She knelt there helplessly, her face full of fear. She did not know what to do for a moment.


    Yin Cheng took a few moments to catch his breath before slowly opening his eyes.


    ¡°Dad, are you okay? Are you still angry with me?¡± Yin Mo asked in surprise when she saw Yin Cheng open his eyes.


    Yin Xun was speechless when she saw her like this. She did not know if Yin Mo was genuinely stupid or pretending to be stupid.


    If she was really stupid, she was really good at seeking benefits for Si Fan and guilt-tripping others. If she was just pretending to be stupid, she was still loyal to Si Fan. Even when it was such an obvious setup and scam, she still pretended not to know it was wrong.


    Usually, she was considered to be kind and would never hurt others, but this time, she had no intention of repenting.


    Yin Xun really wanted to pry open Yin Mo¡¯s brain to see what was inside.


    ¡°You¡¯ll kill yourself if we call the police?¡± Yin Xun asked calmly. ¡°Alright, if you have the courage, try it. Death is very easy, as long as you can accept Si Fan being with someone else afterward. Besides, seeing how relaxed you sound, you must not understand what you have to go through before you die, right?¡±


    As Yin Xun spoke, she walked to Yin Mo¡¯s side and squatted down to look at her.


    ¡°Xun, you¡­¡± Yin Cheng took a deep breath and tried to stop Yin Xun.


    He knew that Yin Mo would do anything for Si Fan.


    That child was disobedient and always caused trouble without knowing the severity of the situation. However, as a father, he could not let the child do this. He would put his foot down, but no matter what happened, he could not let his child die.


    He knew how much Yin Xun hated her sister. He was afraid that Yin Xun would really have a conflict with Yin Mo in a fit of anger and cause Yin Mo to attempt suicide.


    However, Yin Xun stopped him and said, ¡°Dad, just listen from the side.¡±


    ¡°Yin Mo, you used suicide to threaten Dad because you know that Dad and Mom dote on you. They won¡¯t let you do such a thing. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m here this time. Dad won¡¯t stop you. If you die, Yin Rui and I will be the only ones left in the family. It¡¯s good that our family has a son and a daughter. Anyway, we can¡¯t expect you to support Dad and Mom during their old age.¡±


    As Yin Xun spoke, she reached out and grabbed Yin Xun¡¯s wrist tightly.


    ¡°Ah, Sister, it hurts, it hurts¡­¡± Yin Mo was in pain from Yin Xun¡¯s grip, and her eyes instantly became moist again. She cried out in pain as she struggled.


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°Just being grabbed like this hurts. How are you going to commit suicide? The only way to commit suicide is to cut yourself with a knife, take medicine, jump off a building, or jump into the sea.¡±


    ¡°Cutting yourself with a knife is much more painful than me grabbing you. If you can¡¯t even take this, how would you dare to cut yourself? Not to mention the pain of taking medicine and jumping into the sea. Yin Mo, I know you don¡¯t have the guts to do this. You just want to scare Dad. Let me tell you, it¡¯s useless.¡±


    Yin Mo saw that Yin Xun did not sympathize at all. She bit her lip and said, ¡°What if it¡¯s two lives?¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Yin Cheng immediately sat up straight and stared at Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Cheng and said firmly, ¡°I¡¯m pregnant. If you push me any further, my corpse will come at the cost of two lives!¡±


    ¡°So what? No matter what your situation is, you¡¯re going to jail for doing something illegal. Don¡¯t think that we¡¯ll forgive you just like that.¡± Yin Xun ignored Yin Mo¡¯s words and turned to Yin Cheng. ¡°Dad, call the police. The police will handle this matter.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re my family. Why do you have to force me?¡± Yin Mo saw that Yin Xun and Yin Cheng were determined to send her to jail. She smiled sadly. ¡°Call the police, then. I¡¯m willing to go to jail. As long as you don¡¯t make things difficult for Fan, I won¡¯t ask you for anything.¡±


    When Yin Xun saw that Yin Cheng did not move, she knew that Yin Cheng could not bear it.


    Since Yin Cheng did not want to do it, she would do it. She could not give Yin Mo another chance to cause trouble. According to Yin Mo¡¯s personality and Si Fan¡¯s temperament, they would not turn over a new leaf in the future.


    Taking out her phone, Yin Xun was about to dial when Yin Cheng suddenly stopped her.


    ¡°Xun, wait.¡± Yin Cheng let out a long sigh. ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯ll give you one last chance. Will you choose us or Si Fan? If you choose us, then we¡¯ll let bygones be bygones. As long as you promise not to look for Si Fan again, I won¡¯t call the police. We¡¯ll pretend that none of this happened.. If you choose Si Fan, then¡­¡±

    ¡°I choose Fan!¡± Before Yin Cheng could finish, Yin Mo answered.


    After saying that, she covered her mouth and cried as she apologized to Yin Cheng. ¡°Dad, I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯ve long decided to marry Fan. I promised him that no matter what happens in the future, 1¡¯11 stand by his side. Now is his most difficult time, and I can¡¯t leave him. I¡¯m sorry¡­¡±


    Yin Mo kept apologizing.


    Yin Cheng seemed to have aged in an instant. He slumped his body and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Forget it, I¡¯ll let her off this time. Since she chose Si Fan, she probably won¡¯t have the face to return to the Yin family in the future. We won¡¯t have anything to do with each other from now on.¡±


    Yin Mo opened her mouth but did not say anything.


    ¡°Xun, let her go.¡± Yin Cheng waved his hand and stopped looking at Yin Mo. He sat on the chair dejectedly.


    When Yin Mo saw this, she took a deep look at Yin Cheng and walked out of the door while crying and apologizing.


    ¡°Wait!¡± Yin Xun stopped Yin Mo and said to Yin Cheng, ¡°It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t call the police, but you can¡¯t let her go back either. At least not for the next few days. She already knows that I know about Mary¡¯s younger brother¡¯s kidnapping. If she goes back and tells Si Fan, then Si Fan will definitely not let Mary¡¯s younger brother go.¡±


    She knew that it was useless to just capture Yin Mo. Yin Mo was just a helper to Si Fan. Without her, he would just find other helpers.


    Yin Mo was not a threat to her. The real threat was Si Fan because Si Fan was incredibly savage. Other than that, Yin Mo was raised painstakingly by Yin Cheng for more than 20 years. It was certain that Yin Cheng could not bear to part with her.


    Hence, Yin Xun could accept the fact that they would not call the police, but she could not let Yin Mo go back directly. She had other plans that could not be disrupted by Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo was stopped by Yin Xun. Seeing that Yin Xun would not let her leave, she assured Yin Xun, ¡°Sister, don¡¯t worry. 1 definitely won¡¯t tell Fan about this. 1¡¯11 pretend that I don¡¯t know. Also, I can help you persuade Fan not to do anything illegal.¡±


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯ll believe you?¡± Yin Xun said coldly. ¡°Dad, bring Yin Mo back and tell her not to contact Si Fan for the time being. After this matter is over, you can let her go. How about that? This is my biggest concession. If it doesn¡¯t work, we can only call the police.¡±


    Yin Xun had already put it this way. Yin Cheng knew her temper and said, ¡°Mo¡¯er, please come back with me first.¡±


    ¡°Dad, you can¡¯t do this to me!¡± Yin Mo wanted to refuse, but Yin Cheng glared at her fiercely and she shut her mouth.


    After making his decision, Yin Cheng prepared to bring Yin Mo back.


    Just as she reached the door, she heard Yin Xun say, ¡°Dad, keep an eye on her for the next few days. If you don¡¯t, there¡¯s a high chance that she¡¯ll become a murderer. Then, things will be even more serious.¡±


    Seeing Yin Cheng drag Yin Mo away, Yu Tu went forward to ask, ¡°President Yin, what should we do with the thugs?¡±


    ¡°Call the police and let them handle it,¡± Yin Xun said as she looked outside.


    Yu Tu was in a difficult position. ¡°But this matter has something to do with Second Miss. She was taken away by the chairman, so they¡­¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. Just hand them over to the police. You don¡¯t have to say anything else.¡±


    After everything was settled, Yin Xun took out her phone and called Mi Jin, telling him not to spread the news of the missing official seal. Then, she would think of a way to let Si Fan think that they were working hard to find the official seal.


    Although Mi Jin did not understand this behavior, he still did as Yin Xun said.


    At the Blue Fox Company¡­


    The bodyguard handed the official seal to Si Fan. Si Fan looked at the thing in his hand and smiled from the bottom of his heart for the first time in many days.


    After being troubled by Yin Xun for so long, he finally had a chance to take revenge.


    With this official seal, he could forge documents related to Xintao.


    He knew how important security was to a shopping app. It did not matter even if someone found out that it was fake one day. As long as he spent some money to spread the news, there would be brainless netizens who would fall for it.


    He called Cheng She over and handed him the official seal. ¡°Go and write an internal statement. Then get someone to hack into Xintao¡¯s account and send this statement out using their official account.¡±


    After that, Si Fan told Cheng She what he wanted to write in the statement.


    ¡°President Si, but this¡­¡± After Cheng She heard Si Fan¡¯s instructions, his eyes widened in shock. He wanted to persuade Si Fan out of it.


    However, Si Fan did not give him a chance to speak at all. ¡°Just go as I told you to!¡±


    ¡°O-of course, I¡¯ll go now.¡± Cheng She took the official seal and went out with a frown..

    When Si Fan saw that Yin Mo had not returned, he took out his phone to call her. However, the other party¡¯s phone was switched off. He immediately sensed that something was wrong.


    Not long ago, he had contacted Yin Mo and asked her to come back as soon as she was done because he had other missions for her.


    Yin Mo would never take the initiative to turn off her phone. Even if her phone ran out of battery, she would find a way to tell him in another way. From the looks of it, the mission had failed and she had been discovered.


    When he thought about what he had told Yin Mo previously, he was not worried that Yin Mo would sell him out. Yin Mo would not do such a thing.


    Seeing that he could not contact Yin Mo, Si Fan gave up. With Yin Mo¡¯s personality, if anything really happened to her, she would think of a way to resolve it herself.


    After Cheng She wrote the statement according to his request, he stamped it with Xintao¡¯s official seal and posted it on his social media account. At the same time, he got his programmer to hack into Xintao¡¯s official account and posted a copy.


    In order to prevent others from discovering that the original IP address was from Blue Fox, Cheng She asked Shen Mu to erase all traces.


    This way, even if Mi Jin found out later, he would not follow up with the investigation.


    As soon as it was posted, the news exploded on the Internet and was immediately reposted and saved by users.


    After doing all this, Shen Mu, the programmer, said to Cheng She doubtfully, ¡°Assistant Cheng, it¡¯s really strange. Logically speaking, Xintao¡¯s network protection is very strong. Why did I break through it so easily this time? I keep feeling that something is wrong. Do you think they discovered that the official seal had been lost and knew that we would do this? Did they deliberately set a trap for us?¡±


    Cheng She also felt that something was wrong, but he did not have the authority to make the decision, so he told Si Fan about Shen Mu¡¯s doubts.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s fine. I¡¯ve already sent people to investigate. Xintao has lost its official seal. Yin Xun doesn¡¯t dare to make a big deal out of this. She¡¯s sending people everywhere to look for it,¡± Si Fan said nonchalantly. Then, he snorted and spat, ¡°Women are indeed unreliable. Whenever something happens, they panic and give me an opportunity.¡±


    From the beginning, he had never taken Yin Xun seriously. He felt that everything Yin Xun had achieved to this date was just luck.


    After all, Yin Mo¡¯s strengths were obvious. Other than Yin Cheng, there was no one else in the Yin family who could be of any use.


    As Yin Mo¡¯s sister, Yin Xun¡¯s IQ.should be about the same. Even if she could hold him back for a while, she would not always be able to suppress him. Si Fan felt that he did not really attack Yin Xun in the past because of Yin Mo. Indeed, he was too soft-hearted.


    Si Fan did not take Yin Xun seriously at all, but Cheng She had always known Yin Xun¡¯s strength.


    He felt uneasy and said, ¡°President Si, 1 don¡¯t think it¡¯s that simple. If Yin Xun is really so incompetent, she wouldn¡¯t have¡­¡±


    Halfway through his sentence, he did not dare to continue. At this moment, Si Fan was glaring at him coldly.


    Thinking about how he had been made a fool of by Yin Xun previously, there had always been a knot in Si Fan¡¯s heart. Cheng She immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything else.


    However, there was one thing that he had to remind Si Fan of. After all, if something happened in the end, Si Fan would not reflect on his mistakes and would only push everything onto him.


    ¡°President Si, what if they call the police?¡± Cheng She asked with a frown.


    Stealing an official seal was illegal, and they were using it to make a false statement. Although he had asked Shen Mu to erase the traces, if Yin Xun called the police and Mary told them about their kidnapping, even if they could not find any evidence on the Internet, Blue Fox wouldn¡¯t be able to avoid it.


    Si Fan was not worried about this at all. He said coldly, ¡°Call the police? Hmph, she wouldn¡¯t dare. If she dares to call the police, then Mary¡¯s younger brother can forget about keeping his life. No one knows that this matter is related to me. Even if everything is exposed, it won¡¯t affect Blue Fox and me.¡±


    After saying that, Si Fan turned his head slightly and looked at Cheng She coldly. He said threateningly, ¡°Only the two of us know about this, so as long as you don¡¯t say anything, there won¡¯t be any problems.¡±


    Cheng She was shocked by Si Fan¡¯s gaze.


    It was over. He had found out another secret. Looking at Si Fan, he was afraid that he would not have a chance to leave.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, CEO Si. I¡¯ve been with you for so many years. You¡¯ve done me a favor. 1¡¯11 stay by your side as your assistant for the rest of my life. I¡¯m just afraid that you¡¯ll chase me away one day.¡± Cheng She quickly expressed his loyalty.


    Only then did Si Fan nod in satisfaction, indicating for him to leave..

    Thinking of Mary¡¯s younger brother, Si Fan called Chi Bo again, planning to give him some instructions.


    However, he did not expect what was to happen


    Chi Bo anxiously said to Si Fan, ¡°President Si, I called Fatty the other day and realized that 1 couldn¡¯t contact him. Then, 1 sent someone out to look for him. Guess where he is now?¡±


    Chi Bo was still asking Si Fan to guess at a time like this. Si Fan said coldly, ¡°Hurry up and say it.¡±


    ¡°Fatty was taken to the police station! 1 heard that Yin Xun found out that he was imprisoning someone. It was Yin Xun who called the police.¡± Chi Bo told Si Fan what he had found out.


    ¡°How does Yin Xun know where he lives?¡± Si Fan asked curiously.


    Chi Bo said, ¡°1 heard that Fatty used Xintao to buy a lot of iron chains because their express delivery was very confidential and fast. However, at that time, he had just taken some drugs and his consciousness was not very clear. He tried to pull Yin Xun into his house, but there were others present at that time. That was why his deeds were discovered.¡±


    Yin Xun was there?


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Yin Xun to be there either. In other words, Yin Xun personally delivered a package?¡± Si Fan frowned.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. 1 heard that she¡¯s experiencing the life of delivering packages so that she knows what needs to be modified.¡± Chi Bo asked, ¡°Boss, Fatty knows a lot about us. Now that he¡¯s been arrested, do you think he¡¯ll rat us out? Although we haven¡¯t worked together for a long time, we can¡¯t guarantee that the past won¡¯t be leaked¡­¡±


    ¡°This kind of thing can¡¯t be discovered. Otherwise, we¡¯ll be finished. How about this? That business will temporarily stop. We¡¯ll continue after this limelight passes. Also, go and see Fatty. Tell him not to run his mouth. Otherwise, when he comes out of prison, he¡¯ll suffer.¡± Si Fan frowned and said in a low voice.


    ¡°Yes, it seems like that¡¯s the only way. Otherwise, we¡¯ll be finished if we¡¯re discovered.¡± Chi Bo said worriedly, ¡°But what about our clients?¡±


    Si Fan snapped, ¡°Idiot, you can¡¯t even protect yourself, and you still care about them?! Don¡¯t worry, we¡¯ll continue after things die down. There are many customers. Even if we lose some, don¡¯t you know how to create more customers? As long as you have this thing in your hands, isn¡¯t it easy to earn money?¡±


    ¡°Yes, President Si!¡±


    Si Fan hung up the phone and stared at the interface on the computer, deep in thought.


    He did not expect Yin Xun to personally experience delivery work in order to improve her business. Hmph, she was indeed brainless. A true leader was only responsible for leading their subordinates. If anything happened, he would let his subordinates report it. He had never heard of a president doing these things personally.


    However, this incident gave him a good idea.


    When Yin Xun delivered packages, it was the best time for him to make a move on her. In that case, it seemed that Mary would be useful again. As expected, he could not let afford to let her brother go.


    Si Fan thought for a moment, then took out his phone and called Mary. Now that Mark was in his hands, even if he did not turn on the voice changer, he did not have to worry about Mary retaliating.


    However, he had always been a calculating person. Just in case, he could not let Mary know his identity.


    ¡°Hello¡­¡±


    Mary picked up the phone quickly, but she sounded exhausted and hoarse. She must have suffered a huge blow.


    This was what Si Fan wanted. He wanted to destroy Mary mentally and make her work for him.


    ¡°Does Yin Xun know that the official seal is missing?¡± Si Fan asked her.


    Mary replied, ¡°She knows it¡¯s gone, but she doesn¡¯t know it was me and doesn¡¯t suspect me.¡±


    Si Fan sneered. ¡°Looks like that woman really doesn¡¯t have any real strength. What does she plan to do now?¡±


    ¡°President Yin said that this matter is very important. Xintao had barely left the ground when the official seal was lost. We cannot publicize this matter. If the investors find out about it, she would be finished. She asked us to find out who the thief was in private. She is most worried that someone would use the official seal to affect the company.¡± Although Mary was tired, she still told Si Fan the news that she knew.


    Hearing that Yin Xun had finally suffered a setback, Si Fan felt better. He warned Mary, ¡°I don¡¯t want a third person to know about this, or your brother will be finished. However, you don¡¯t have to worry too much. As long as you obediently work for me in the future, 1 can guarantee that your brother will be fine.¡±


    ¡°Who are you? My brother is in your hands. Even if you tell me, 1 won¡¯t do anything,¡± Mary asked him with a trembling voice..

 Chapter 383 - Chapter 383: Yin Xuns Plan

    Chapter 383: Yin Xun¡¯s Plan


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Fan sneered. ¡°It¡¯s best you don¡¯t know who I am. If you do, you¡¯ll never see your brother again. Also, if Yin Xun calls the police, your brother will disappear from this world. If she tries to call the police, you¡¯d better stop her. 1 still have a mission for you. Yin Xun will personally experience delivery work, right? Then remember to inform me the next time she¡¯s alone. Other than this, don¡¯t contact me unless it¡¯s important. Otherwise, you¡¯ll bear the consequences.¡±


    With that, Si Fan hung up without giving Mary a chance to speak.


    Mary¡¯s eyes reddened as she listened to the beeping sound of the disconnected line. She was afraid that Si Fan would discover her secret and do something to Mark.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve said that I¡¯ll help you save your brother. I won¡¯t go back on my word.¡± Yin Xun, who was sitting at the side, said indifferently.


    Mary turned to Yin Xun. She could only place all her hopes on Yin Xun now.


    Back then, Mi Jin¡¯s huge matter had been resolved by Yin Xun, so this was definitely within her capability. She could only choose to believe Yin Xun. Si Fan had no intention of letting Mark go from the beginning.


    Originally, Mary wanted to return to the company directly, but Yin Xun did not let her. She made her go directly to Modern City. Although she did not know Yin Xun¡¯s intentions, she still went there.


    ¡°Will Si Fan really not find out that we¡¯re setting him up?¡± However, Mary was still very worried.


    Yin Xun held her chin with one hand and moved the mouse with the other. She leisurely checked the comments section of Xintao¡¯s official website.


    The official website had just been hacked and issued a fake statement. She had been watching it all from here. Despite seeing that the comments section was getting more and more lively, she was not worried at all.


    The fake statement that Si Fan made was about counterfeit goods sold in Xintao, as well as the fact that Xintao had plans to collaborate with Blue Fox.


    ¡°You want to use Xintao¡¯s reputation to pressure me? However, your thinking is too simple.¡± Yin Xun looked at the unsightly comments and said indifferently.


    ¡°What? President Yin, what are you talking about?¡± Mary sat there and looked at Yin Xun. She only knew that the official seal was in Si Fan¡¯s hands. As for what Si Fan used it for, she did not know at all. She had not even checked online yet.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s fine. Don¡¯t worry. Although Si Fan is ruthless, you don¡¯t have to worry. He¡¯s extremely conceited. As long as he thinks that we¡¯re in a weak position, he won¡¯t do anything.¡±


    Mary looked at Yin Xun¡¯s confident expression. Although she was still a little worried, she chose to believe her.


    Actually, this entire situation had been Yin Xun¡¯s plan from the beginning.


    When she received the news that her brother had been kidnapped that day, Mary felt that the sky was about to collapse. Coupled with the pressure from her parents, she thought that she was doomed too.


    Unexpectedly, Yin Xun found her and had a heart-to-heart talk. Although Yin Xun did not know the exact situation at that time, she could tell that Mary was different from usual. This amount of attention touched Mary very much.


    Which other boss would care about the lives of their employees this much?


    Mary did not want to tell Yin Xun about her brother¡¯s kidnapping. Si Fan had forced her to do those things, but she really did not want to betray Yin Xun. Through the incident with Mi Jin, Mary knew that Yin Xun would have a way to help her, so she found an opportunity to tell her about it secretly.


    After that, Yin Xun began to help her formulate a plan.


    Yin Xun had said at that time that this matter must not be known by others, Si Fan most of all.


    Si Fan forced Mary to steal the official seal. Yin Xun originally planned to deliver packages to create an opportunity for Mary, but she did not expect Qu Lin to invite her to go shopping. That was good too. Yin Xun had a reasonable excuse to leave the company.


    However, no one else could know about her plans. Otherwise, there might be additional complications.


    Therefore, she did not even tell Mi Jin.


    Yin Xun thought of all the possible consequences. If she acted too casually, Si Fan would definitely be suspicious. However, Yin Xun could not call the police, or Mary¡¯s brother would be finished.


    Therefore, she needed to think of a reason not to call the police. Yin Xun said that she needed Mary to cooperate.


    Actually, the real official seal was still in Yin Xun¡¯s hands. The one she took was fake, but it was very similar to the real official seal. Yin Xun had specially gotten someone to forge it.


    Therefore, even if Si Fan used the official seal to do bad things, it would not count. Yin Xun was not worried about this at all. As for public opinion, as long as she found a ghostwriter to stir up the story later, the users would know the truth..

    Chapter 384: Xintao¡¯s Secrets


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    It was common for Si Fan to hire fake reviewers. Yin Xun was also good at doing this. It was just a matter of spending some money.


    Mary was grateful for Yin Xun¡¯s help and made an oath that as long as she saved her brother this time, she would always help Yin Xun in the future. No matter what happened, that would not change.


    Unless¡­


    Mary looked at Yin Xun and wanted to ask her how she could save her brother, but she had already troubled Yin Xun enough. She really could not ask.


    Yin Xun seemed to have seen through her thoughts. She smiled and said, ¡°1 know you¡¯re anxious. Just be patient and wait.¡±


    Xintao was not online yet. Blue Fox had advertised so many times in the past that the traffic had been sucked away by them. Now, everyone¡¯s attention was on Blue Fox.


    In addition, Blue Fox organized many activities. There were coupons and lucky draws, and the prizes were sumptuous. Therefore, most people were more optimistic about Blue Fox¡¯s development.


    Si Fan used this opportunity to pull in a few investments. He also had the money to continue competing with Yin Xun in burning money. It could be said that Blue Fox was thriving.


    Blue Fox was developing at the right time, while Xintao was being suppressed. Si Fan was currently in a good mood, so he let his guard down.


    Yin Xun wanted to use Si Fan¡¯s arrogant mentality to defeat him.


    In the blink of an eye, half a day passed. Mary had been staying in Modern City with Yin Xun.


    When it was almost time to get off work, Yin Xun received an unknown call. There was no number on it. Mary was beside her. She saw it too and her heart tightened.


    Yin Xun signaled for her to calm down and pressed the answer button.


    As expected, a machine-altered voice came from the other end of the phone. ¡°Yin Xun, right?¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°That¡¯s right. Who are you?¡±


    That person laughed loudly and said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to care who 1 am. Since the matter has blown up already, I assume you know that your official seal has been lost.¡±


    Yin Xun and Mary looked at each other. She saw that Mary was so nervous that her body was trembling. Yin Xun signaled to her with her eyes that it was fine and replied, ¡°What does this have to do with you? That is our company¡¯s business.¡±


    ¡°Your company¡¯s business? Hehe, the official seal is in my hands now, but do you know how I got it?¡± Even though the person used a voice changer, Yin Xun could still hear the smugness in his voice.


    ¡°It¡¯s with you? How did you get it? Don¡¯t try to use the official seal to do anything!¡± Yin Xun pretended to be afraid.


    ¡°If you want me to stop using the seal, that¡¯s fine with me. As long as you promise me one thing, I¡¯ll agree. How about handing over some secrets of Xintao?¡±


    Yin Xun pretended to be anxious and said, ¡°How can I do that? Do you have any other requests? As long as it¡¯s not a threat to Xintao, and it¡¯s within my capability, 1 can agree.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun declined, the caller snorted coldly and said, ¡°Hmph, since you don¡¯t agree, then forget about it. From now on, you can slowly watch Xintao die.¡±


    With that, the caller hung up.


    ¡°President Yin, what should we do now?¡± Mary asked anxiously.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. He will surely ask you to do more things in the future. Don¡¯t think about anything and listen to him obediently.¡±


    Mary believed in Yin Xun, but Mary¡¯s mother did not believe in Mary. She kept calling Mary to urge her to quickly save Mark.


    During the time that Mary was with Yin Xun, her mother had already made several calls. Every time, she would scold Mary fiercely. Mary was already anxious, and after being given an earful, she was even more at a loss for what to do.


    Seeing that she was in a poor mental state, Yin Xun said to her, ¡°Go back for now. This matter still needs some time. Don¡¯t worry, since I said that I would save your brother, 1 won¡¯t go back on my word. Help me and stand on my side. I will do my best to protect you.¡±


    Mary thanked Yin Xun gratefully before leaving Modern City.


    It was time to get off work. The workers had stopped work and returned to their dormitories. Jiang Xing and Yu Tu were also preparing to get off work and say goodbye to Yin Xun. After they left, Yin Xun walked out of the office and strolled around the construction site.


    At this moment, she was the only person at the construction site. She was surrounded by the smell of wood and cement. She looked at the half-completed building and casually found a place to sit down. She held her chin and fell into deep thought.


    She needed to sort out the matters with Si Fan, herself, Blue Fox, and Xintao.


    The current situation was a little special. Previously, Xintao had ruthlessly suppressed Blue Fox. It seemed like Si Fan was forced into a desperate situation, but the situation was not really that bad.


    Now, Si Fan earned another wave of popularity and new users with the help of various discounts and the fact that their app was released earlier than Xintao. With this trend, Si Fan had pulled in more investments, so he now had some extra capital to fight Yin Xun in a contest of pumping funds into the company..

 Chapter 385 - Chapter 385: Not Liking Fang Yao

    Chapter 385: Not Liking Fang Yao


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After the situation improved, Si Fan got someone to kidnap Mark and threatened Mary to work for him.


    If Mary was the kind of heartless person who would betray without hesitation, Yin Xun could ignore Mary completely and resolve things the normal way. However, Mary trusted Yin Xun very much and handed the matter to her to resolve. Yin Xun would definitely help her.


    She could not let Si Fan realize that something was wrong. Everything had to go according to Si Fan¡¯s plan for now.


    In other aspects, Yin Xun was not worried about what Si Fan would do. However, Mark was in Si Fan¡¯s hands. This was a human life at stake. Si Fan was not someone who would abide by the law. If he was really anxious, he would readily kill someone.


    In the original novel, Si Fan killed Yin Mo¡¯s family and even imprisoned and tortured her. Due to the effect of the protagonist¡¯s halo, Si Fan could bypass the law.


    In fact, he had been very careful in this matter. He had even hidden his phone IP and used a voice changer. This way, even if the police monitored him, they would not have enough evidence to prove that it was him.


    ¡°It¡¯s easy to save someone, but how can we make Si Fan pay the price too?¡± Yin Xun muttered.


    Suddenly, she thought of a person.


    Yin Xun took out her phone and called Officer Zuo.


    On the other side, Mary also received a call from Si Fan. This time, the other party was even more insatiable and directly asked her to help him get confidential internal documents from Xintao.


    After Mary spoke to Si Fan, she immediately told Yin Xun about this.


    ¡°I knew he would ask you to do this, but I thought it would take a few days. 1 didn¡¯t expect it to be so soon. Since that¡¯s the case, bring the confidential documents to him and see what his next request is.¡± Yin Xun had already returned to the villa and was training in the basement.


    This time, she did not go to Fang Yao¡¯s house and did not ask him to come. She was afraid that Fang Yao would find out about this issue.


    Although she trusted Fang Yao very much, it was better the fewer people knew about this.


    Mary was anxious as she said, ¡°But President Yin, if we really give the company¡¯s secrets to him, what will happen to Xintao? I want to save my younger brother, but I do not want to harm Xintao.¡±


    Because of her younger brother, her parents had been scolding her non-stop. Only Yin Xun was helping her earnestly, allowing her confused and fearful heart to calm down a little.


    Although her younger brother was kidnapped because of Yin Xun, she was not to blame as his parents said.


    Yin Xun was just doing business normally. The one who was in the wrong was Si Fan, who had done something illegal.


    Yin Xun comforted her. ¡°Are you stupid? We can make just a fake document for him. He thinks that with your brother as a hostage, you will definitely listen to him. And he doesn¡¯t know that I already know about this. If you do this¡­¡±


    Although Yin Xun had not finished reading the original novel, she had fortunately figured out Si Fan¡¯s character and knew how to deceive him.


    Yin Xun explained to Mary that it was not easy to steal a company¡¯s secrets and needed everyone¡¯s cooperation.


    Since Si Fan thought that he had obtained the real official seal, he would easily believe that the company was in chaos because of the loss of the seal.


    As long as Mary took advantage of the chaos, Yin Xun would blow things up and fire Mary. Then, the matter would feel more genuine.


    ¡°Will this really work?¡± Mary was grateful for Yin Xun¡¯s help, but she still felt a little worried about this idea.


    Yin Xun smiled faintly and said, ¡°1¡¯11 chase you out of the company. That way, I can save your brother.¡±


    ¡°How?¡± Mary still did not know what Yin Xun wanted to do.


    ¡°We¡­¡±


    After Yin Xun finished explaining the plan, she returned to the bedroom to wash up and sleep.


    As expected, Qu Lin meant what she said. Yin Xun said that she would bring her to experience the Xintao business. Qu Lin came over early in the morning and did not even eat beforehand.


    Yin Xun prepared a simple breakfast. After eating, the two of them chatted and laughed as they left in a car.


    The butler, who was next door, saw the two of them together early in the morning, looking rather happy. He quickly went to find Fang Yao and told him about this.


    ¡°Young Master, why does it feel like Second Miss is closer to Miss Yin than you are? Yesterday, Second Miss came to look for Miss Yin. They went out to have fun for an entire day, and it took them a long while to come back. Miss Yin seems to have free time but she did not come over to our house. In fact, when she passed by our house this morning, she did not even stop her car to greet you. This is different from the past. Don¡¯t you feel that something is wrong? Could it be that Miss Yin is not interested in you anymore?¡± The butler purposely made a big deal out of this.


    He had always known that Fang Yao liked Yin Xun. He could also tell that Yin Xun did not dislike Fang Yao getting close to her. Earlier on, if Fang Yao did not make a move, he could understand that he was worried that Madam would object..

 Chapter 386 - Chapter 386: Hes a Good Person

    Chapter 386: He¡¯s a Good Person


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, Fang Yao recently said that there was no need to worry about that contract. Even without the influence of external parties, it made no sense that he would not take action.


    The butler thought that if he did not make a move on Yin Xun now, it must be because he was being lax. As long as he gave Fang Yao a sense of danger, the young master should make a move.


    Unexpectedly, Fang Yao did not react at all. Instead, he smiled and said nonchalantly, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, 1 know what I¡¯m doing.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s expression was too indifferent. The butler was getting anxious, but because of his status, he could not persuade him any further. He only complained softly, ¡°I finally know what it means to feel fear when your lord does not¡­¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    After a fruitless attempt to persuade Fang Yao, the butler went back to his own business.


    After the butler left, Fang Yao took out his phone. There was an unread message. He opened it and saw that it was from Qu Lin.


    ¡°Brother, Sister-in-law wants to take me to the suburbs. I¡¯ll report to you at any time.¡±


    Fang Yao smirked and put his phone away.


    He could tell that Yin Xun had something on her mind. Yesterday, Liu Ying did not go to her house to cook, and Yin Xun did not come to his house either. He heard from Shu Yi that Yin Xun only had a simple bowl of instant noodles yesterday, and then went to train with Tan Ai.


    Unless there was something serious on her mind, how could Yin Xun give up the opportunity to eat delicious food and settle with instant noodles at home? This was not like her at all.


    Actually, if he wanted to know what happened to Yin Xun, it would be simple. He only needed to find someone to investigate. However, he did not want to use this method on Yin Xun. If possible, he hoped that Yin Xun could tell him personally.


    ¡°Looks like she still doesn¡¯t trust me enough. 1 can¡¯t continue like this,¡± Fang Yao muttered to himself. He glanced at Little Green, who was perched on the stand, and lowered his head in thought. Then, he walked upstairs.


    Yin Xun¡¯s brain was always thinking of new ways to earn money. When it came to relationships, if she was left to her own devices, everyone might be dead and buried before she got enlightened. Fang Yao still needed to take the initiative.


    As for the method, Fang Yao gradually came up with an idea.


    At this moment, Yin Xun, who was chatting with Qu Lin in the car, suddenly sneezed twice.


    She gently rubbed her sore nose and muttered, ¡°Am I catching a cold?¡±


    When Qu Lin heard her words, she smiled and said, ¡°I don¡¯t think so. Maybe a man that likes you is talking about you. Haven¡¯t you heard? One sneeze means that someone is thinking about you, and two sneezes mean that someone is talking about you.¡±


    Yin Xun had also heard of this and nodded in agreement. ¡°That must be Si Fan. Recently, Xintao and Blue Fox have been in a huge fight. Who knows what curses he¡¯s throwing at me every day.¡±


    Qu Lin frowned. She did not expect Yin Xun¡¯s first thought to be Si Fan and not Fang Yao.


    ¡°Yin Xun, can 1 ask you a personal question?¡± Qu Lin approached Yin Xun and asked her mysteriously.


    When Yin Xun saw Qu Lin¡¯s expression, she immediately became vigilant. She had a feeling that Qu Lin would not ask any nice questions.


    ¡°Go ahead, but I can refuse to answer questions that invade my privacy.¡± Yin Xun moved aside a little.


    Qu Lin nodded. ¡°Of course. Let me ask you one thing. What do you think of my Brother?¡±


    ¡°Fang Yao?¡± Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief. So that was all. That was a simple question. ¡°He¡¯s a good person.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words summarized her impression of Fang Yao. She was not being perfunctory. She really thought so.


    When she thought about how the two of them met for the first time because of her peeping, she believed that Fang Yao would hold a grudge. To her surprise, not only did he not angry, but the two of them even become friends.


    After that, they became business partners. Fang Yao also helped her solve many difficult problems in the past. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a good person. At least to her, he was a great person.


    However, Qu Lin was clearly dissatisfied with this answer. She frowned and said, ¡°Just a good person?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°What else could he be?¡±


    Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun for a while, then sighed deeply. ¡°She¡¯s already pulling the ¡®good person¡¯ card. Looks like there¡¯s really no hope.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Qu Lin in confusion, not knowing what she meant.


    Qu Lin knew how smart Yin Xun was, so she was not sure if Yin Xun was slow when it came to relationships or if she actually did not like Fang Yao romantically.


    At this moment, she was extremely conflicted as to whether she should ask about this directly.


    After hesitating for a long time, Qu Lin decided to ask directly. Otherwise, Yin Xun and Fang Yao might not make any more developments in the future.


    ¡°Yin Xun, let me ask you another question. You have to answer me truthfully.¡± Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun steadily. ¡°If Brother asks you to marry him, will you agree?¡±


    Smack!


    Yin Xun¡¯s hand slipped and her phone fell..

 Chapter 387 - Chapter 387: Experiencing It Personally

    Chapter 387: Experiencing It Personally


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun¡¯s first reaction was not to reject the idea but to think of her contract.


    According to the contract, if she really got together with Fang Yao, she would have to compensate a huge sum of money. That would be too terrifying.


    To her, you could strip away her love, but you definitely could not take away her money.


    At the thought of losing so much money, she shook her head repeatedly and rejected the thought. ¡°No, never¡­¡±


    Qu Lin,¡±¡­¡±


    She knew that Fang Yao treated Yin Xun differently, so she also thought that Yin Xun had a good impression of Fang Yao. At this moment, when she saw Yin Xun rejecting him so bluntly and there was even a hint of fear in her expression, it seemed that Yin Xun had no interest in Fang Yao at all.


    Qu Lin sighed. She suddenly did not know how to continue to matchmake the two of them.


    The two of them did not speak much for the rest of the journey. They fell into their own thoughts.


    Yin Xun was thinking about how to get Qu Lin to invest, while Qu Lin was thinking about how to matchmake Yin Xun and Fang Yao.


    In any case, it was fine as long as Qu Lu and Fang Yao did not end up together. As for who his partner would be, it did not matter to her. The reason she was still hung up with Yin Xun was because Fang Yao definitely had a thing for Yin Xun.


    With something on their minds, time passed exceptionally quickly. Soon, the two of them arrived at the warehouse in the suburbs.


    Before coming over, Qu Lin thought that Yin Xun had just brought her to take a look. After all, this was about their inspection process.


    It was not until she saw Yin Xun change into work clothes and skillfully ask the manager for packages that she realized that the situation was different from what she had imagined.


    Qu Lin stood rooted to the ground in shock as she watched the bald, big-bellied manager talk to Yin Xun.


    ¡°President Yin, your express delivery vehicle has been driven over by our employees.


    Wait for me to get someone to bring it over for you.¡± The bald man was very respectful as he spoke to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Okay.¡±


    Immediately after that, an employee drove a three-wheeled motorcycle over under Qu Lin¡¯s shocked gaze. After handing the vehicle to Yin Xun, he left to do his work.


    Looking at the employee¡¯s calm expression, it seemed that this was not the first time Yin Xun had done such a thing.


    Seeing Yin Xun start to move the goods onto the bike, Qu Lin quickly pulled Yin Xun to the side and asked with a frown, ¡°What are you doing? Are you really going to deliver the packages yourself?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and said matter-of-factly, ¡°That¡¯s right. Can¡¯t you see that I¡¯ve changed my clothes?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and asked her, ¡°Do you want to give it a try? Or you can just follow me. After all, you still have doubts about our Xintao. Today, 1¡¯11 take you to experience the company.¡±


    Qu Lin asked in confusion, ¡°But you don¡¯t have to do it yourself. You can just give me the information.¡±


    Yin Xun said calmly, ¡°I¡¯ve already given you the information, but it¡¯s not completely trustworthy. If you really want to understand the situation of a company, it¡¯s more reliable to do it yourself.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s words made sense, but no matter how Qu Lin thought about it, she felt that this was not something a CEO should do. However, since Yin Xun had offered, it was not out of the question for her to try it.


    ¡°Alright, since you¡¯ve offered, 1¡¯11 experience it too.¡± Qu Lin nodded. ¡°But do you know how to drive that thing? Well, 1 don¡¯t. If you want me to experience delivering things, that¡¯s fine, but I refuse to move the goods. That delivery box looks dusty¡­¡±


    Qu Lin s disdain was obvious.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ve already delivered packages before. I¡¯m experienced and 1 know how to drive the bike. If you¡¯re interested, you can drive your own car and follow me. Of course, you don¡¯t have to deliver any packages.¡±


    Qu Lin quickly refused. ¡°I don¡¯t want to drive by myself. 1 want to tag along with you.¡±


    ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go.¡±


    While Yin Xun was talking to Qu Lin, there were already employees helping to move the goods into the vehicle. All that was left was for Yin Xun to deliver them personally.


    Just like Fang Yao, Qu Lin sat beside Yin Xun and followed her as she went to make deliveries.


    Qu Lin saw Yin Xun calling the recipients non-stop. After that, she would run up and down and personally deliver the goods to the recipient. From time to time, she would even take out her phone to record something.


    As far as Qu Lin knew, normal packages would not be delivered directly to the recipient. Instead, they would be thrown into one place and a text message would be dropped to the recipient. They would not even call them.


    Because of this, there were often cases of missing items. However, the delivery company did not consider that to be their problem. Instead, they might blame the users for not picking up their things sooner..

 Chapter 388 - Chapter 388: Helping You Pull In Investments

    Chapter 388: Helping You Pull In Investments


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Although the users were dissatisfied, there were only a few express delivery companies around. Everyone had long signed up and the company was in a position of power. It was useless even if they complained.


    Yin Xun had made an express delivery system. With this, the users could even choose the time themselves. This way, they would not miss any packages and it would be better to keep it discreet.


    Therefore, even though Xintao had user restrictions and might be more costly, many people still used Xintao to search for express delivery.


    ¡°This business is really good. The future is very promising.¡± After Yin Xun successfully delivered another package and walked downstairs, Qu Lin sighed deeply.


    Seeing that Qu Lin was satisfied with Xintao Express, Yin Xun quickly struck while the iron was hot. ¡°Our business has just begun. After 1 optimize the system, it will be completely online. You¡¯ve seen the current popularity. How is it? Are you interested in investing?¡±


    Qu Lin was different from Liu Ying. Liu Ying was a pampered young lady. Since she was young, her parents did not allow her to do business. Because she did not have any experience, she did not know what to pay attention to when investing. That was why Liu Ying agreed to invest soon after Yin Xun gave her some persuasion.


    As for Qu Lin, she had been raised by her family as the heir since she was young. She was immersed in business all day long. She was about the same age as Yin Rui, but she was much more responsible than him.


    In fact, because she was too mature and rational, Yin Xun would unintentionally treat her as her peer.


    ¡°I¡¯ll take a look again. Investing in a project can¡¯t be decided based on appearances alone. Moreover, the inspection period is too short. I need to ensure that there are no problems. At least the risk assessment must be reduced to the minimum before 1 can invest. There¡¯s no guarantee of profit or loss in the business world, but we can reduce the risk.¡± Qu Lin shook her head and rejected Yin Xun.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was a little disappointed, she quickly added, ¡°Although I can¡¯t confirm it for the time being, I can help you pull in other investors.¡±


    Yin Xun had just picked up another delivery when she heard Qu Lin¡¯s words. She paused and quickly put down the delivery. She looked at Qu Lin and asked her, ¡°Other investors? If you won¡¯t invest, how can you help me recruit people?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s easy. I¡¯m not investing not because I don¡¯t have any confidence in you, but because of other reasons. I have to play it safe because 1 can¡¯t afford a loss. My friends are rich and are training to do business. They¡¯re not afraid of failure.¡±


    At this point, Qu Lin took out her phone and was about to take a photo of Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun immediately raised her hand to block Qu Lin¡¯s camera and asked in confusion, ¡°What are you doing?¡±


    Qu Lin pushed Yin Xun¡¯s arm away with one hand and took photos with her phone with the other. As she took the photos, she said, ¡°I¡¯m helping you get investments. The big boss is personally experiencing the project. Who wouldn¡¯t want to work with such a responsible partner? 1 have my reasons for not investing, but we¡¯re friends and you¡¯re my savior, so I¡¯ll do my best to help you get investments.¡±


    Hearing Qu Lin¡¯s words, Yin Xun was very touched.


    No matter who it was, as long as they could pull in investors, this project would develop better. ¡°Okay, go ahead. If taking photos isn¡¯t enough, you can record a video.¡±


    ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s better to take a photo than a video. That would seem too deliberate.¡± Qu Lin sent the photos to Fang Yao and reported their location.


    Half a day passed quickly. Yin Xun delivered all the packages in the morning. Next, she could take a break and deliver the afternoon¡¯s packages.


    Qu Lin was already hungry. Yin Xun, who had been running up and down to work, was even more so.


    ¡°Sister Yin Xun, what are we having for lunch?¡± Qu Lin asked Yin Xun ingratiatingly.


    Actually, she wanted to ask Yin Xun if she could take a break from sending packages. Although her spirit was very commendable, it was really tiring. Qu Lin wanted to go back now. However, she was too embarrassed to say that. After all, she asked to experience it herself. It would not look good if she gave up halfway.


    Yin Xun dragged Qu Lin along and drove the vehicle back to the warehouse. Then, she pulled Qu Lin to the back of the warehouse.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll take you to eat something good.¡±


    Qu Lin thought that the two of them would have a feast for lunch after being tired for so long. When she followed Yin Xun to their destination, however, she was stunned.


    Yin Xun brought her to the company canteen. There was no such thing as a feast around here. It was all packed lunches!


    ¡°Are we eating this for lunch?¡± Qu Lin pointed at the workers who were happily eating their lunch boxes.


    Yin Xun nodded and said indifferently, ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s a good combination of meat and vegetables and balanced nutrition. Didn¡¯t we say that we were here to experience it? Of course, we have to devote ourselves to it. Only then can we know what needs to be improved and not learn it through other people¡¯s mouths..¡±

 Chapter 389 - Chapter 389: Eating A Boxed Meal

    Chapter 389: Eating A Boxed Meal


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Moreover, Yin Xun had spent a lot of money to build this canteen. It was clean and hygienic, and the chef she found was also of high standards. She would change the dishes every day to ensure that the nutrition and taste were good.


    She knew that only when the employees ate well would they have the strength to work.


    This was good for the employees, but it was a little difficult for Qu Lin.


    She had never eaten such a thing since she was young. Seeing the assortment of dishes placed in a box, Qu Lin instantly lost her appetite.


    ¡°Sister Yin Xun, although it¡¯s an experience, it s very tiring. You should at least have a good lunch to reward yourself. Isn¡¯t it¡­ bad to eat this?¡± Qu Lin wanted to say that this looked like pig food, but she was too embarrassed to say it. In the end, she changed her words.


    While the two of them were talking, Yin Xun had already arrived at the place where the dishes were ordered. She asked the kitchen lady to prepare food for them.


    Hearing Qu Lin¡¯s words, Yin Xun said nonchalantly, ¡°Since you wanted to experience it, you have to completely integrate yourself into their atmosphere. Only then can you know what needs to be improved. Other than express delivery, I will personally experience the subsequent projects to ensure that the final result will be as good as possible. Besides, it¡¯s good enough as long as you can fill your stomach. The taste of these lunches is not bad. If you can¡¯t accept it, wait for me to finish eating and I¡¯ll bring you to a nearby restaurant to eat.¡±


    Yin Xun carried the plate of food and sat down nearby to eat.


    When Qu Lin saw Yin Xun like this, her brows were tightly knitted together. She knew that Yin Xun was very capable. She had always been paying attention to the struggle between Xintao and Blue Fox. However, she did not expect Yin Xun to let herself suffer to such an extent. She worked with the workers and ate with them. She did not have the air of a noble young lady at all.


    Originally, when Qu Lin said that she would experience it personally, she was just saying it casually. This was because she had mostly been thinking of Blue Fox from the beginning.


    As long as something happened to Blue Fox again, it would be the best chance to buy it. Once that happened, she would be able to squeeze Si Fan out of management and completely take control of Blue Fox.


    No matter what she said, the ultimate goal was to earn money.


    Seeing Yin Xun working so hard, Qu Lin suddenly felt that investing in Xintao was not a bad choice either.


    ¡°Forget it. This is my first time experiencing such a lifestyle. I might as well do it to the end.¡± Qu Lin finally relented. She walked to the side to order food and asked for a boxed meal like Yin Xun. Then, she brought it over to eat with her.


    While eating, she took out her phone and took photos of Yin Xun.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you done filming? Why are you still taking photos?¡± Yin Xun was a little exasperated.


    Qu Lin waved the phone in her hand and said, ¡°I¡¯m helping you record how serious you look when you¡¯re working. Eating workplace meals is also a part of your professionalism. 1 can¡¯t stop halfway. It¡¯s not that I¡¯m being arrogant, but I¡¯ve really never seen a CEO do this. Forget about CEO¡¯s, I¡¯ve never seen the daughter of a rich family eat food like this.¡±


    ¡°No matter how rich you are, you¡¯re still human. You still have to work and earn money.¡± Yin Xun pointed at the employee beside her with her chin and continued, ¡°We¡¯re the same as them. We fight for our lives. The only difference is how much money we have. Everyone has the same nose and two eyes. No one is more noble than the other.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Xun suddenly had a question. She stood up and went to Qu Lin¡¯s side. She asked her, ¡°I was so busy just now that I forgot to look at the photos. What pictures of me did you take? Did you beautify me?¡±


    Yin Xun moved very quickly. Before Qu Lin could put her phone away, Yin Xun saw the photo.


    Unexpectedly, Qu Lin did not turn on the beauty filter and directly used the default camera to take a photo of her. Yin Xun immediately reached out to snatch the phone away. ¡°You didn¡¯t turn on the beauty filter. Is our friendship worth so little?! Delete it now and turn on the beauty filter to take a new photo!¡±


    ¡°No, no!¡± Qu Lin reacted quickly and dodged her lunge. ¡°Sister Yin Xun, with your looks, why are you still using beauty filters? If you use beauty filters, it will lower your looks, okay? Only the original camera can show your beauty. Look at your fair and smooth skin. You can¡¯t even see your pores with the original camera. With your looks, even if you wore vegetables on your head, you will still look like a jewel. How pretty¡­¡±


    Qu Lin praised Yin Xun repeatedly but still waved her phone around to avoid it being snatched. She thought that Yin Xun would not listen, but to her surprise, Yin Xun sat back down immediately. She looked very happy.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright, since you¡¯ve praised me that much, I won¡¯t fight you for it.¡±


    Qu Lin,


    Although Yin Xun was quite beautiful, did she know nothing about humility?

    As they chatted, Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang. She took it out and saw that it was a call from Mary.


    ¡°You eat first. I¡¯m going to take a call.¡± After Yin Xun finished saying that to Qu Lin, she took her phone and walked out of the canteen. She found a quiet place before answering the call.


    Mary reported to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, I have already given Si Fan the information that you gave me, but he still did not release my younger brother.¡±


    Yin Xun could tell that Mary was very tired at the moment, and her voice seemed to be even hoarser than yesterday.


    ¡°Does he suspect anything?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mary replied, ¡°Yes, but I followed your instructions and said that I couldn¡¯t stand working for you ages ago. 1 told him I was already prepared to jump ship. He was no longer suspicious after I said that.¡±


    The fish took the bait.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright, you don¡¯t have to worry about anything from now on. Just go to work as usual. Leave the rest to me.¡±


    After giving Mary a few more instructions, Yin Xun hung up.


    A gust of ¡®wind blew, and a leaf fluttered onto Yin Xun¡¯s shoulder. She turned her head slightly, took the leaf down, and threw it aside. She looked at the leaf with a slight smile. Everything was going according to her plan. She believed that very soon, Si Fan would completely wither like this leaf.


    Three days passed in a flash. Qu Lin was determined to follow Yin Xun when she delivered packages during those days.


    Other than the first day, she did not do anything special. For the remaining two days, she just accompanied Yin Xun to send her off. However, she did not do it for nothing. Her request was for Yin Xun to accompany her to her class reunion.


    It was just a class reunion, so it was not a big deal. They could even eat some delicious food along the way. Yin Xun agreed readily.


    Moreover, the class reunion would be in a week. By then, Yin Xun would be done with her work.


    Qu Lin accompanied Yin Xun to experience the life of delivering packages for three days. After witnessing Yin Xun¡¯s perseverance and decisiveness, she finally decided to work with Yin Xun. Now, the Qu family had become Yin Xun¡¯s second-largest investor.


    With Fang Yao and Qu Lin as investors, Yin Xun had nothing to worry about, especially since Qu Lin had helped her rope in a few good partners. Now, even if Yin Xun established a business empire, she would have the money to invest.


    Now that there was no need to worry about funds and they were running out of time, Mi Jin suggested that Xintao should be launched fully online.


    Originally, Xintao was in a passive position because they were one step behind Blue Fox. Now that Blue Fox was about to start giving out prizes, there would be another wave of popularity that could attract a large number of customers.


    50 what if they could not put it on the app store? As long as the users could obtain practical benefits, even if they were forced to download it on the web, it would not affect its popularity.


    However, Yin Xun was not in a hurry. On the contrary, she was very relaxed.


    She reassured Mi Jin. ¡°There¡¯s no hurry. Based on Si Fan¡¯s petty personality, let¡¯s see how their prize-giving ends up first.¡± Aside from this reason, there was actually another very important reason, but Yin Xun could not tell Mi Jin.


    In reality, before Mary¡¯s brother was rescued, she could not provoke Si Fan.


    51 Fan thought that he had already obtained the internal information of Xintao and was preparing to use it to attack Xintao. Yin Xun could not let him discover that the information was fake, so she had to delay the time they went online again.


    ¡°Mi Jin, take advantage of this period to lead the technical department and check if there are any bugs in the software. We must not let the incident with Blue Fox repeat itself in Xintao,¡± Yin Xun said to Mi Jin.


    Mi Jin nodded and said, ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡±


    Not only was Yin Xun waiting to see what Blue Fox would do, but the users who had been tricked by Blue Fox were also watching its every move. They wanted to know if they had hit the jackpot.


    It was finally time for the prize-giving from Blue Fox. Everyone went to their mailboxes excitedly to see the results. When they saw that they only a few coupons worth a couple yuan, they were all stunned.


    Back then, they had been scammed badly by Blue Fox. Regarding the additional deduction of money, they had at least made up for it later.


    However, due to the phone lagging caused by Blue Fox and the many things that were delayed because of it, the users had incurred many losses. This had to be brought up.


    Originally, they thought that Blue Fox was being sincere. At the very least, Blue Fox would give them a gift to make up for it. It did not have to be much. At the very least, it could be a memento.


    They did not expect that after waiting for so long with great anticipation, the gift was actually a coupon, and it was even a coupon that cost a few yuan.


    This was equivalent to asking them to continue spending. In the end, the users would still suffer losses, while Blue Fox would make a profit.


    Someone immediately made a post criticizing this matter.


    [Trashy Blue Fox. They agreed to compensate the users who suffered losses. In the end, what did we get? A coupon worth a few yuan? What¡¯s the use of this? I want something tangible.. Who wants to spend more money on Blue Fox? ]

 Chapter 391 - Chapter 391: Constantly Paying Attention

    Chapter 391: Constantly Paying Attention


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    There were too many posts criticizing Blue Fox. Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Cheng She quickly spent money to hire fake reviewers in an attempt to reduce the popularity of the posts.


    [How poor are those who complain about the small prizes? The website helped you out even though it was not their duty. Do you still expect the website to give you enough prizes to make a living? What a group of poor people. You didn¡¯t suffer any substantial losses. 1 advise you to quit while you¡¯re ahead. Even if the website doesn¡¯t give you a single cent, you don¡¯t have the right to object!]


    [Human nature is indeed greed. You¡¯re still not satisfied with the coupons. Do you have to be given jewelry and gold by the website?]


    [I agree. Blue Fox has already compensated the users who suffered losses. Now, the lucky draw is just an extra show of kindness. It¡¯s not like they owe you anything. How can you have the cheek to ask for more?]


    Among the posts, bloggers who spoke up for Blue Fox gradually appeared. Moreover, the account level was very high.


    Following the appearance of posts that helped Blue Fox, more bloggers joined in. Due to the high level of their accounts and the money spent to promote them, they actually seemed to overshadow the posts of ordinary users.


    Cheng She heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.


    Actually, this matter was neither big nor small. It all depended on how it was resolved.


    Regarding the lucky draw, Blue Fox did not announce what the prizes were. Therefore, no matter what was given to the user, as long as they gave something, it would not be considered cheating them.


    Even if the users wanted to defend their rights, Blue Fox had an excuse to save themselves.


    Although this was immoral, Cheng She had no choice. He was only working for Si Fan. Of course, he would do whatever his boss told him to do. He could not make the decision by himself.


    Blue Fox had started to spend money to remove the posts and bought a large number of paid posters to cover up the criticisms. The situation was about to pass, but Cheng She had forgotten about Yin Xun. How could Yin Xun stand by and do nothing? This was a good opportunity to take down Si Fan.


    Because of Mark, Yin Xun could not openly go against Si Fan. This could make Si Fan do something drastic.


    Although she could not do anything on the surface, it did not mean that she could not do it secretly.


    Yin Xun had been paying attention to the situation ever since Blue Fox opened the lucky draw. She had also seen the results of the lottery.


    Seeing that the ordinary users were almost unable to speak out under the influence of the fake bloggers, she said to Mi Jin, ¡°This won¡¯t do. Since Blue Fox will buy fake bloggers, we should also buy some as well to blow up the issue.¡±


    Mi Jin was puzzled by this. He asked, ¡°How are we going to make a big deal out of this? Although it¡¯s indeed unsightly for Blue Fox to use small coupons to patronize the users, it¡¯s not something that violates the rules of the lucky draw. As long as they give some sort of prize, they will have an excuse.¡±


    No one wanted to see something bad happen to Blue Fox more than Mi Jin. He had been watching Blue Fox from the beginning. This time, Blue Fox did not have any concrete dirt against them for him to use.


    In the face of Mi Jin¡¯s doubts, Yin Xun smiled faintly and said, ¡°Are you sure? You¡¯ve been keeping an eye on Blue Fox. Didn¡¯t you notice that there¡¯s something wrong with the users who won the lottery?¡±


    As he spoke, Yin Xun took out her phone and clicked on the profile of the winning user for Mi Jin to see.


    Only then did Mi Jin realize that the winners of the first and second prizes were actually employees of Blue Fox!


    ¡°Originally, I thought that Si Fan would finally be generous for once. I did not expect that he would actually play such a trick. Indeed, he is a stingy person.¡± Mi Jin sighed as he said, ¡°But President Yin, even if you know recognize the winners as employees of Blue Fox, their profiles do not have any photos. How do you plan to let the public know about this?¡±


    Xintao and Blue Fox had been fighting for so long. Yin Xun said that Si Fan was not worthy of her attention, but she was constantly being watched by Si Fan. How could she ignore this?


    She would not actively seek to harm others, but she had to be wary of others.


    Yin Xun had always believed that Blue Fox was not a substantial threat to Xintao. However, for the sake of her safety, she still monitored everything about Blue Fox, including their employee accounts.


    They did not use private accounts. It was an account owned by Blue Fox. Although there was nothing in it, the ID could not be changed. It was fixed.


    Si Fan¡¯s method could only deceive those who did not understand this industry. To Yin Xun, it was too easy to dig out proof.


    Yin Xun acted very fast. She bought a large number of fake reviewers and successfully blended into ordinary users.


    [Friends, have you checked the profile of the first prize user? It is actually Blue Fox¡¯s account. This is a lucky draw directed by Blue Fox themselves.. How is this fair? It¡¯s all rigged!]

 Chapter 392 - Chapter 392: Something Happened At Blue Fox Again

    Chapter 392: Something Happened At Blue Fox Again


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The curses against Blue Fox had started to recede, but after Yin Xun hired the ghostwriters to create a scene, the matter suddenly became even more serious.


    Other than the group of users who were scolding Blue Fox, there was also a group of people who directly reported them. Cheng She saw that it was useless for the fake writers to try removing the trending searches. He stared at the computer interface worriedly and did not know what to do.


    Things were gradually spiraling out of control. Even if Cheng She was afraid now, the consequences might be even worse if he did not tell Si Fan.


    He had no choice but to look for Si Fan.


    ¡°President Si, the users arc making a fuss because of the unfairness of our lottery draw. Many of them are complaining that the prizes are too small. What should we do? Should we increase the number of prizes?¡± Cheng She felt that since Xintao was not going online yet, Blue Fox had some monopoly for online shopping. As long as Si Fan put in some effort and took a profit loss to rope in the users, their chances of winning were still decent.


    The biggest concern was if the users would lost trust in them. If Xintao went online later, their users would all be lost. It would be too late for Blue Fox to salvage the situation.


    However, Si Fan did not think so. He rolled his eyes at Cheng She. ¡°If we increase the rewards after they make a fuss, doesn¡¯t that mean that we will be controlled by the users in the future? Moreover, our fraud has already been discovered. If we change the lottery now, won¡¯t it become even more exposed?¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Cheng She frowned. ¡°Blue Fox has already angered a large number of users because of the bugs. They¡¯re only staying now because we are the main shopping website. We even said that we would throw in big prizes as compensation. However, in the end, we used the lucky draw method. It¡¯s no wonder they¡¯re unhappy. If we let those users continue to cause trouble, I¡¯m afraid that when Xintao goes online, the users will all go to Xintao¡­¡±


    There was no need to care about the feelings of the users when they were the dominant force in the industry. In any case, there would always be haters. It would not affect their earnings much.


    However, if the users had a second choice, they would have to be careful.


    Cheng She¡¯s analysis made a lot of sense. Every word was on point. This time, Si Fan did not scold him. Instead, he smiled and said confidently, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Xintao won¡¯t go online. Only our Blue Fox will be available for online shopping. Even if the users make a fuss, it won¡¯t affect our earnings.¡±


    ¡°President Si, what do you mean?¡± Cheng She was puzzled.


    However, Si Fan had no intention of explaining to him. ¡°Go back. Since the users are making a fuss, hire more ghostwriters to suppress them. If it really doesn¡¯t work, buy some popularity points to help them become a trending topic. It won¡¯t do us any harm. It will get us more attention too.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re really not concerned anymore?¡± Cheng She was still worried and asked again.


    Seeing Cheng She¡¯s distrustful expression, Si Fan said impatiently, ¡°Are you the CEO or am I the CEO? Just do whatever I tell you to do! Hurry up and work for me!¡±


    Cheng She was helpless. Since Si Fan had said it like this, he could only do as he was told. However, he had a bad feeling in his heart.


    Xintao had been fighting Blue Fox for so long. How could they quietly remain offline forever? However, he did not dare to refute Si Fan. Si Fan was not someone who would listen to advice, so he could only do as he was told.


    As a result, just as Si Fan wished, Cheng She did not need to spend more money to buy popularity in the end. Their company directly rushed to the trending searches. At the same time, there was also the matter of the rigged lucky draw.


    Blue Fox was once again making news. It was negative news. Just because Si Fan was not worried did not mean that the investors were not worried.


    The investors called Si Fan one after another, wanting to ask about the exact situation.


    Si Fan could only comfort them since he could not tell them the exact reason. He could not reveal that he had already obtained internal information of Xintao. As long as he did something, Xintao would not be able to go online.


    It was fine as long as he alone knew about this. This was something illegal. Even his investors could not know.


    When the investors saw that he was given empty words of comfort, they started to worry. They felt that Blue Fox was becoming unreliable and planned to withdraw their investments. They would accept it if they only got part of their investments back. After all, if this continued, they would only lose more.


    In the face of this situation, Si Fan could only hold back his anger. He cursed in the office, ¡°What a bunch of fence-sitters who don¡¯t even dare to take such a small risk! Get lost. In the future, you¡¯ll know how stupid your decision is.. When the time comes, even if you kneel and beg me to accept your investments, I won¡¯t agree!¡±

 Chapter 393 - Chapter 393: Threats And Blackmail

    Chapter 393: Threats And Blackmail


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The withdrawal of the investors was not the worst-case scenario. The situation started because Blue Fox¡¯s scam had blown up. Following that, various phone manufacturers labeled them as scamming software.


    If a user wanted to download Blue Fox, a dialog box would pop up, indicating that the software was not security-certified and that there was a risk. Then the negative comments about Blue Fox would scroll through the dialog box.


    Being labeled as harmful software by mobile phones was not a small matter. Even Si Fan was anxious. He called various mobile phone manufacturers and learned that Blue Fox was no longer in the app store. At least, users would not be stopped from downloading the app from web pages.


    Nevertheless, phone makers frequently advise that downloading from webpages was risky in the first place, and they were just being considerate of their users.


    Other apps were available from the normal software app store. You could download apps there and the store would guarantee their safety.


    ¡°Then put Blue Fox on the app store!¡± Si Fan demanded from the other party. If he could put it on the app store, why would he choose to use the webpage method? That would only make it more troublesome for users to download it.


    However, the other party directly refused the suggestion. ¡°That won¡¯t do. When we first collaborated with Blue Fox, we were at ease. However, so many things happened, causing our phone brand to be criticized and we even lost many users. A lot of people went to buy Zhenku phones for safety. Will Blue Fox reimburse us for our losses? If you do, we¡¯ll agree to Blue Fox¡¯s release.¡±


    Threats and blackmail This was clearly what they were doing!


    Si Fan was furious, but what the phone brand CEOs said was reasonable and well-founded. He could not refute them.


    How was it possible for Si Fan to compensate all of them? It was simply making things difficult for him. Now that his investors had been withdrawn, where could he get the money?


    However, although he was angry, Si Fan was still a measure of calm.


    He thought of the information Mary had given him. As long as this information was leaked, it would be impossible for Xintao to go online for a few years.


    At that time, Blue Fox would be the only shopping website on the entire platform. There was no need to worry about not being able to earn money. Furthermore, fixing bugs was a simple matter as long as there was enough time.


    Si Fan took out the USB drive that Mary had given him. Inside was the information. He had two choices now. One was to let Yin Xun pay to buy the information back. That way, he would get a large sum of money that can be used to protect Blue Fox.


    The second option was to take the information for himself. This way, he could save Blue Fox the time needed for research and development.


    Si Fan narrowed his eyes and took out his phone. He found Yin Xun¡¯s number and dialed it without hesitation.


    Yin Xun picked up the call quickly.


    This time, Si Fan did not use a voice changer or hide his IP. He did not mind that the other party knew his identity.


    ¡°Si Fan? What¡¯s the matter?¡± When Yin Xun heard Si Fan¡¯s voice, she asked him calmly.


    Si Fan sneered and said, ¡°I have something nice here. Do you want to take a look?¡±


    He inserted the USB drive into the computer and looked at the information inside with a satisfied expression.


    Mary was indeed Yin Xun¡¯s personal assistant. She could even steal such a confidential document. This also reflected that Yin Xun was indeed pathetic. AU her previous achievements were just luck.


    ¡®Women are women. They have no place on the podium.¡¯ Si Fan cursed in his heart.


    However, he did not say this out loud. He remained silent and waited for Yin Xun¡¯s reply.


    It was impossible to tell what Yin Xun was doing at this moment, but she seemed to be in a bad mood. She replied disinterestedly, ¡°I¡¯m not interested. Si Fan, don¡¯t forget our relationship. I have nothing to talk to you about. If there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll hang up. I¡¯m very busy now.¡±


    ¡°Wait.¡± Si Fan was afraid that Yin Xun would really hang up the phone, so he quickly stopped her. ¡°For Mo¡¯cr¡¯s sake, I¡¯ll give you a reminder. I advise you not to go online for now. Otherwise, you won¡¯t be able to bear the consequences.¡±


    Yin Xun did not appreciate the warning and questioned him, ¡°What does our Xintao¡¯s business have to do with you?¡±


    ¡°It has nothing to do with me now, but it will soon. I¡¯ll give you a chance now. Do you want to merge Xintao with Blue Fox? Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll leave you the vice president position. The treatment won¡¯t be worse than what you have now. How about it?¡± Looking at the information in front of him, Si Fan felt that he was not far from victory.


    Yin Xun refused. ¡°What are you thinking? When you asked Yin Mo to persuade me, I already rejected the offer.. Why are you still not giving up?¡±

 Chapter 394 - Chapter 394: Yin Xun Was Unnerved

    Chapter 394: Yin Xun Was Unnerved


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The corners of Si Fan¡¯s mouth curled up slightly. He did not mind Yin Xun¡¯s tone at all. He intercepted a portion of the information he got and sent it to Yin Xun by email. Then, he continued, ¡°Don¡¯t be in a hurry to reject my offer. Look at the email I sent you. You can decide after reading it.¡±


    There was no response from Yin Xun. She must have gone to check the emails. After a long time, Yin Xun¡¯s voice came from the phone. ¡°How did you get the confidential information from Xintao?¡±


    Si Fan smiled. ¡°Do you think I¡¯ll answer such a question? Don¡¯t think I don¡¯t know you¡¯re recording.¡±


    Yin Xun was silent for a moment before saying, ¡°What do you want?¡±


    Si Fan felt that he had finally taken the lead, and his heart swelled with pride.


    In the past, he had always been threatened by Yin Xun. Now, he finally had a chance to vent his anger. He suddenly felt that he should use this opportunity to torture Yin Xun for a while longer. That would feel good.


    Originally, he wanted to threaten Yin Xun into agreeing to let Xintao merge with Blue Fox, but now, he suddenly changed his mind. He would keep Yin Xun hanging and not let Xintao go online first. When Xintao could no longer develop, he would buy it. That would be even more satisfying.


    ¡°I just want your Xintao to stay offline for the time being. Of course, if you want to go online, I won¡¯t stop you. As for the consequences¡­¡± Si Fan smiled and continued, ¡°If Xintao goes online, I¡¯m afraid this information can¡¯t be kept. I¡¯m sure you¡¯re very clear about Mi Jin¡¯s previous incident. If I play my hand, you¡¯ll be worse off than him.¡±


    Now, he knew that all the operations of Xintao, as well as all kinds of internal information, could be used to fight Blue Fox at any time.


    When Xintao was fully online, he could directly sue Xintao. The reason why he did not use it now¡­


    Si Fan held the mouse in his right hand and looked at the information bit by bit with a disdainful expression.


    Yin Xun¡¯s business philosophy was really terrible. As expected, her previous success was all luck. Si Fan would never acknowledge such a plan.


    He had no use for their business plans, so it was a good decision to use it to threaten them.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll call the police? You¡¯re stealing trade secrets. That¡¯s illegal,¡± Yin Xun warned him.


    Si Fan said nonchalantly, ¡°Naturally, you can call the police, but if you do that,


    I can drag you into jail with me.¡±


    This sentence was not a joke; it could really be done.


    Of course, the premise was that the information he held was real.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Xintao to have done such illegal and dirty things. Tax evasion, malicious economic warfare, and bribes¡­ Basically, our Blue Fox¡¯s internal employees gathered some information. I really didn¡¯t know until I saw it. I was shocked when I found out. Any one of the things Xintao did would be enough for you to suffer.¡± Si Fan looked at the sealed confidential information and felt even more smug. ¡°Heh, I didn¡¯t expect you to actually try to resell the cultural relics. You¡¯re really bold.¡±


    When he saw that Yin Xun did not react, he thought that she was unnerved and continued to threaten her. ¡°The outside world knows that Xintao is run by you, Yin Xun, who is also the eldest daughter of the Yin family. If anything happens to you, do you think your Yin family will have a good life? Xintao has just opened its website, but it has already started to do illegal things in secret. I believe your Yin family is not very clean either.¡±


    Si Fan talked to himself happily. After telling Yin Xun everything about Xintao breaking the law, he asked her calmly, ¡°How about it? Is there anything else you want to say now?¡±


    After saying so much, Yin Xun finally seemed to panic. Even her voice was trembling. She asked anxiously, ¡°Don¡¯t leak it out. Tell me your conditions. As long as it¡¯s something I can do, I¡¯ll agree!¡±


    From the moment Xintao appeared and the moment Si Fan found out that Yin Xun founded it, he wanted to suppress Yin Xun and take her down. He imagined the day that she would come begging him.


    He did not expect it to happen so quickly. It seemed that he had overestimated her when he treated Yin Xun as an opponent back then. He had only used a small trick and Yin Xun was already so scared.


    ¡°For Mo¡¯er¡¯s sake, I won¡¯t make things difficult for you for now. It will depend on your performance in the future.¡±


    Si Fan turned off the computer and pulled out the USB flash drive. Then, he leaned lazily against the back of the chair and said to Yin Xun, ¡°When I marry Mo¡¯er, we¡¯ll be a family, so I won¡¯t wipe you out. Your Xintao can continue to be used on Zhenku phones, but forget about the other phones. The rest of the market belongs to Blue Fox. Do you understand?¡±


    ¡°Understood. I¡¯ll be careful.¡± This time, Yin Xun did not resist and agreed directly..

 Chapter 395 - Chapter 395: Torturing Yin Xun

    Chapter 395: Torturing Yin Xun


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    If it was in the past, Si Fan would definitely be suspicious. However, now that he already knew Xintao¡¯s internal secrets, he felt that Yin Xun¡¯s actions were very normal and did not think too much about it.


    ¡°However, I have a question¡­¡± Yin Xun asked, ¡°How did you get our information? Since the information is with you, is my official seal with you too?¡±


    Si Fan sneered. ¡°You don¡¯t have to care about that. Just do your thing.¡±


    In the end, Si Fan did not say anything. He only threatened Yin Xun. Seeing that Yin Xun was obedient to him, the last trace of doubt in his heart disappeared.


    He felt that with Yin Xun¡¯s personality, as long as there was a chance to resist, she would not listen to him like this.


    He did not expect that one day, he would actually be able to trample Yin Xun under his feet. Si Fan immediately felt the pleasure of successfully taking revenge.


    However, his good mood was disrupted by a phone call.


    The Blue Fox incident had blown up so much that it had actually alarmed the P-brand phone dealer. The person in charge of P-brand had called him and said that he wanted to cancel the collaboration between the two parties.


    Si Fan could reject other investors, but he could not lose the P-brand phone market. This was an international brand. Losing this was equivalent to losing the opportunity to develop overseas.


    Si Fan wanted to convince them to stay, but no matter how he tried to comfort and explain, the representative would not listen. They said that users were avoiding Blue Fox now. If they cooperated with such a malicious website, it would affect their phone¡¯s reputation in the end. They were unwilling to cooperate with Blue Fox even if they had to pay the penalty.


    Now, Xintao¡¯s information was Si Fan¡¯s trump card. However, this trump card was too risky and could not be easily used.


    Although he knew that the market would belong to Blue Fox sooner or later, the phone dealer did not know whether Blue Fox would get boycotted by all the phone dealers in the end. The consequences could not be underestimated.


    He needed time, but he also needed money.


    Zhou Meng and Wang Ran could invest in him, but there were requirements for their investments. Si Fan lowered his head and thought for a moment. In the end, he decided that it was most appropriate to ask Yin Mo to handle this kind of thing.


    However, he could not contact Yin Mo at all. It was as if Yin Mo had suddenly disappeared.


    He sent someone to find out about Yin Mo and found out that Yin Mo had been locked up by Yin Cheng. Not only was she not allowed to go out, but her phone had also been confiscated.


    Her father was so strict. It seemed like the Yin family knew something. Especially since they did not even let Yin Mo touch her phone, they seemed to be on guard against him.


    ¡°Do you think you¡¯re safe?¡± Si Fan sneered and took out his phone. He turned on the voice changer and called Mary.


    Mary answered almost instantly. The first thing she said was, ¡°You finally called. I did what you asked and helped you so much. Shouldn¡¯t you let my brother go?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. You still have a mission to complete.¡± After Si Fan¡¯s voice was processed by the voice changer, it became rough and low, just like the devils in television dramas. ¡°I¡¯ll give you another mission. Think of a way to bring Yin Mo out.¡±


    Mary asked Si Fan in a faint voice, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you would let my brother go after I help you steal the information? You always go back on your word. This time, you still want me to help you. Do you think I¡¯ll still be so stupid as to listen to you? Anyway, you won¡¯t let my brother go no matter what I do. Then I won¡¯t care anymore!¡±


    Si Fan could imagine Mary¡¯s current mental state, but how Mary broke down had nothing to do with him.


    ¡°Watch your temper. You have no choice but to help me now. If you don¡¯t listen, not only will your brother be finished, but you will be too. I will announce what you did and let everyone know that Yin Xun¡¯s assistant is a traitor who has the nerve to steal information,¡± Si Fan threatened Mary coldly.


    Mary¡¯s sobbing voice came from the other end of the line.


    Perhaps she was really frightened by Si Fan¡¯s words. After a moment of silence, she said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll help you do this one more thing. After this is done, can you let me and my brother go? I¡¯m just a small assistant. My family is very poor, and work is very important to me. If you force me again, you¡¯ll be basically asking me to die!¡±


    ¡°Sure.¡± The corners of Si Fan¡¯s mouth curled up. He loved to see others break down in front of him helplessly. This gave him a great sense of satisfaction.


    He wanted to torture Yin Xun and everyone around her bit by bit and let her know the price for angering him. After completely crushing their minds, he would see them kneel and beg for mercy.


    After hanging up the phone, Si Fan felt that things were getting more and more interesting when he thought about how messy Xintao¡¯s internal department


    was..

    Chapter 396: Get Yin Mo Out


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Fan was still happy, but he did not know that both Yin Xun and Mary heard his call. They were in Yin Xun¡¯s office at the moment.


    Seeing Mary hang up the phone, Yin Xun complained helplessly, ¡°I asked you to prepare fake information, but you didn¡¯t have to be so ruthless. You even wrote about selling cultural relics. It¡¯s too ridiculous and easy to be discovered.¡±


    She only instructed Mary to make a fake document. As for what was inside, she did not care at all.


    When Si Fan said those things just now, she had been silent for so long trying to process the ridiculous things. Would Si Fan notice something was amiss?


    She did not expect Si Fan to be so careless that he did not even notice such a flaw. As expected of Yin Mo¡¯s partner. Even their brains were somewhat similar.


    Mary did not respond to Yin Xun¡¯s words. The office was silent except for the sound of water flowing in the fish tank beside him.


    Yin Xun looked away from the computer and turned to look at Mary.


    Mary lowered her head slightly. A few locks of hair that were originally tied behind her ear fell down and blocked her eyes. However, Mary did not seem to notice it. She just looked at the phone in her hand in a daze and did not move. It was as if she was suffering from poison.


    ¡°Mary?¡± Yin Xun called her softly.


    ¡°Ah, President Yin, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Mary regained her senses and lifted her head up to look at Yin Xun.


    At this moment, her eyes were red and her face was pale. She looked listless.


    Yin Xun knew that Mary was worried about her brother. After all, Si Fan could do anything and ignore the law.


    Sighing slightly in her heart, Yin Xun comforted her. ¡°I know you¡¯re worried about your brother, but you¡¯re also worried that you can¡¯t solve the problem. Si Fan has already fallen into the trap. After this, we have to stabilize our next steps and save your brother according to the plan.¡±


    Although Mary had not been with her for long, she had always done her best in her work. This time, when Mark was kidnapped, Mary did not even call the police and only told her about it.


    Yin Xun was aware that she did not have any merits. Protecting her own people was probably her greatest merit. Moreover, she would be equally anxious if Yin Rui was kidnapped.


    This time, she had done her best to help. On one hand, she sympathized with Mary for helping her. On the other hand, this was also a good opportunity to deal with Si Fan.


    As long as they succeeded, they could take this opportunity to drag Si Fan down from the management of Blue Fox.


    ¡°Thank you, President Yin. In order to help me, you did not hesitate to put in so much effort to act. In the future, other than working hard, I don¡¯t know how else I can repay you.¡± Mary¡¯s voice was slightly trembling as she thanked Yin Xun.


    She knew that even if Yin Xun did not help her, she had no reason to blame her.


    Yin Xun waved her hand and said, ¡°We¡¯re in the same boat. If the boat capsizes, no one will have a good ending. Alright, since Si Fan wants you to look for Yin Mo, go ahead. Don¡¯t make him suspicious or make him anxious.¡±


    Mary looked troubled. ¡°But isn¡¯t Second Miss locked up at home by the chairman? How can I get her to contact Si Fan?¡±


    ¡°You haven¡¯t been fired yet. You¡¯re a member of the Yin Corporation. As long as you go over in the name of work, you can create an opportunity for Yin Mo to escape.¡±


    ¡°But does this count as luring Second Miss to make another mistake?¡± Mary was still in a difficult position.


    Of course, she had no feelings for Yin Mo. It was more than that. Back then, Yin Mo leaked her information. She actually resented Yin Mo.


    However, Yin Mo was Yin Xun¡¯s younger sister. She was grateful to Yin Xun and did not want to hurt her family.


    However, Yin Xun did not care about this at all. She sneered and said, ¡°Do you think things will be fine if you lock Yin Mo up at home? As long as she doesn¡¯t give up on Si Fan, she¡¯ll find a way to escape. My father can lock her up for a while, but not for a week or a month. Besides, your mission is just to get her out. What Yin Mo chooses in the future is her own business.¡±


    Yin Mo would take action again sooner or later. Yin Xun had a premonition.


    ¡°Alright, President Yin, I understand.¡± When Mary heard Yin Xun say this, her heart finally relaxed a little.


    Si Fan seemed to have encountered something urgent just now, so he asked her to contact Yin Mo as soon as possible. Since that was the case, Mary bade farewell to Yin Xun and went to help find Yin Mo.


    Mary took a taxi to the Yin family¡¯s villa. She stood at the entrance of the villa and looked inside.


    Just as Yin Xun had said, Yin Mo was being monitored by Yin Cheng..

 Chapter 397 - Chapter 397: Yin Mo Was Imprisoned

    Chapter 397: Yin Mo Was Imprisoned


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At this moment, the door was tightly shut, and there was even a servant standing guard at the door. Mary had been to the Yin family¡¯s house before, and all the servants knew her.


    ¡°Assistant Mary, why are you here? Our chairman said that we can¡¯t let anyone in for no reason.¡± The servant had no intention of opening the door and only stood inside while asking Mary.


    Mary smiled politely and said, ¡°President Yin asked me to come over. There is a document that I need to show the chairman.¡±


    As she spoke, Mary took out a document from her bag and showed it to the servant, but she did not open it.


    Seeing this, the servant asked her to wait outside before she entered the house to ask about it.


    The servant moved quickly and came out in less than two minutes. It seemed that he had Yin Cheng¡¯s permission. The servant went to the door and opened it for Mary without saying a word.


    Mary took the documents and slowly walked into the villa. She knew where Yin Mo¡¯s room was, but she did not know how to get Yin Mo to contact Si Fan.


    As she walked, she was deep in thought. Very soon, she was in the living room, but she still could not think of what to do. Usually, when she walked down this hallway, she would secretly complain that the Yin family¡¯s villa was too big. Just walking in from the door was like moving through a shopping aisle.


    When Mary arrived at the living room, Yin Cheng was sitting in the living room watching television. She looked over carefully and saw that Yin Cheng, who was originally energetic and had a head of black hair, now had more white hair. The wrinkles on his face were obvious and he looked exhausted.


    It had only been three days since they last met, but Yin Cheng looked like three years had passed.


    Seeing that Mary had appeared, Yin Cheng turned off the television and asked her in a deep voice, ¡°What do you need to tell me?¡±


    It seemed that the servant had reported to Yin Cheng directly.


    Just as Yin Cheng finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.


    ¡°Dad, you¡¯re outside, aren¡¯t you? Can you open the door? I¡¯m sorry. I know I was wrong. I won¡¯t do such a thing again. I was insensible. Just think of it as a child¡¯s antics and forgive me!¡± It was Yin Mo¡¯s voice.


    Hearing Yin Mo¡¯s words, Yin Cheng sighed deeply and asked, ¡°If I let you go, will you still look for Si Fan?¡±


    Yin Mo replied, ¡°Dad, Fan is my boyfriend. He plans to propose to me. We¡¯ll be family soon, so please don¡¯t be angry with him. Besides, Fan didn¡¯t do anything wrong. He made me do all that because of my sister. She¡¯s been making things difficult for him, and because he loves me too much and can¡¯t bear to see me sad, he¡¯s had to put up with her actions. This time, he just wanted to scare her a little. He didn¡¯t really mean to do anything bad¡­¡±


    ¡°Si Fan, Si Fan, Si Fan. That brat made you do bad things, but he still doesn¡¯t dare to admit it. Look at how long you¡¯ve been locked up by me. How long has it been since we heard from him? Did he take the initiative to look for you? Don¡¯t you understand what he thinks of you? He¡¯s just using you!¡± Yin Cheng interrupted Yin Mo before she could finish. At this moment, he was really angry, and even his breathing became a little ragged.


    Hearing the father and daughter quarrel, Mary stood at the side and waited motionlessly, afraid that she would get involved. She tried her best to reduce her presence.


    Yin Mo continued to say, ¡°Fan clearly loves me. He did so many things for me! Dad, I¡¯m already grown up. I should have the right to decide my own love. Anyway, I don¡¯t care. I will be his for the rest of my life. Whether I¡¯m alive or dead, I¡¯ll be bound to him. Please let me go. I¡¯ll go find Fan obediently. I promise I won¡¯t do such a thing again!¡±


    Yin Mo knocked on the door anxiously.


    Although Mary did not dare to show any reaction on her face, she was cursing in her heart. No matter how she looked at it, Yin Xun and Yin Mo did not look like biological sisters. Other than the fact that they looked similar, their intelligence was worlds apart.


    Si Fan was using Yin Mo. Even Mary could see through such a simple thing, but Yin Mo refused to believe it despite being so deeply involved. What was even more outrageous was that she actually helped Si Fan do things that harmed her family.


    Thinking about how Yin Xun had asked her to cooperate with Si Fan to release Yin Mo, Mary had no doubt that once Yin Mo went out, she would definitely be tricked by Si Fan into doing something bad again.


    However, no matter how Yin Mo begged, Yin Cheng would not let her go.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, you have the right to make your own life decisions, but Daddy won¡¯t agree to let you be with Si Fan. As long as you still want to be with Si Fan, I won¡¯t let you go.. I¡¯ll definitely make you stop thinking about that!¡±

    Yin Cheng took a few steps toward the door of Yin Mo¡¯s room. He looked at the tightly shut door and said, ¡°Think about it. Because of Si Fan, how many mistakes have you made? Other than this time, didn¡¯t you also go to the company to steal documents in the past? Didn¡¯t you collaborate with other companies to cause trouble for our family? There are too many things to count. Don¡¯t think that just because Mom and Dad dote on you, you can do whatever you want. This time you¡¯re not leaving over my dead body!¡±


    When Yin Mo saw that Yin Cheng would not let her go, she kept knocking on the door and begging. It was impossible to discuss things properly over the loud noise.


    ¡°Come, let¡¯s talk in my study.¡± Yin Cheng brought Mary to the study and closed the door. It was finally quiet.


    ¡°This is a document regarding the latest project in Xintao. President Yin has some things that she is not good at. She wants you to take a look and give her a suggestion.¡± Mary quickly handed the document over to Yin Cheng, and her gaze drifted to the door from time to time.


    Yin Cheng took the document and glanced through it. He did not expect there to be so much content. He frowned slightly and looked up at Mary. ¡°Why didn¡¯t Xun come to look for me personally?¡±


    Usually, Yin Xun would come to look for him directly if anything happened. That way, it would be easier for the two of them to discuss things.


    Mary followed Yin Xun¡¯s instructions and explained, ¡°President Yin said she did not want to come back since Miss Yin Mo was at home¡­¡±


    Although Yin Xun asked her to say this, it was not a very nice thing to say. Mary was a little embarrassed when she said it, so her voice was very soft.


    ¡°Sigh, it¡¯s really hard on Xun¡¯er.¡± Yin Cheng let out a long sigh. Then, he lowered his head and prepared to look at this information in detail.


    Mary took a deep look at the door of the study room. She motivated herself internally before she said to Yin Cheng, ¡°Chairman, President Yin said that although she is not coming back, this document still needs to be discussed with you. She asked me to tell you to video call her after receiving the document. Oh right, this is also a new function of Xintao. When we turn on the video function, we can see what the other party is doing. It¡¯s great for long-distance meetings and is much more convenient than voice calls.¡±


    As she spoke, Mary took out her phone and found the Xintao app. She opened the call menu on her Friend List and showed Yin Cheng how to use the video call. ¡°Actually, it¡¯s very simple. There are three dots at the bottom of the dialog box. Click here and see.¡±


    Yin Cheng followed Mary¡¯s instructions and called Yin Xun.


    After the two of them exchanged a few words, Mary said to Yin Cheng, ¡°Chairman, you can continue your discussion with President Yin. I will go out and wait for you. Call for me when you are done.¡±


    ¡°Go.¡± Yin Cheng nodded.


    After Mary came out of the study, she went straight to the first floor and walked to Yin Mo¡¯s room.


    She was not sure if anyone else was home, so she could not make it too obvious that she was trying to release Yin Mo.


    She realized that although there were servants standing guard outside the building, there was no one inside the villa.


    At this moment, there was no more movement in Yin Mo¡¯s room. She must have known that Yin Cheng was no longer there. Even if she made a noise, no one would hear her.


    ¡°Ahem¡­¡± Mary stood beside Yin Mo¡¯s room and pretended to cough.


    As expected, as soon as she made a sound, Yin Mo immediately said, ¡°Who¡¯s outside?¡±


    Mary answered, ¡°Miss, it¡¯s me, Mary.¡±


    ¡°Is there anyone else outside besides you?¡± When Yin Mo heard that it was not Yin Cheng, she was overjoyed. Even her tone became happier and she stopped knocking on the door.


    Mary said, ¡°There¡¯s no one. I¡¯m the only one here now. The chairman has also gone upstairs to the study to deal with business matters.¡± She deliberately revealed the situation to Yin Mo.


    Hearing that there was no one outside, Yin Mo was even happier. ¡°Mary, do me a favor. Can you see the key to my door?¡±


    Mary looked toward the lock, where a key was inserted.


    It seemed like Yin Cheng knew that Yin Mo had always wanted to escape, so he inserted the key here. Even if Yin Mo was inside, she would not be able to open the door. ¡°Yes.¡±


    Yin Mo heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. ¡°That¡¯s great. Can you help me take the key?¡±


    Mary refused and said, ¡°Second Miss, I don¡¯t think the chairman will agree to this. If he knows what I did, what if he blames me for it? It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t want to help you, but I just don¡¯t dare to. You also know that I¡¯m just an employee, and I can only listen to the boss. Furthermore, I am only here to help President Yin deliver information. If I cause trouble, she might fire me.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. If they want to fire you, I¡¯ll speak up on your behalf. I can¡¯t leave now, but you can still help me. It¡¯s just a matter of doing something. You won¡¯t just leave me trapped here and not help, right?¡± Yin Mo asked gently..

 Chapter 399 - Chapter 399: Clearing Suspicion

    Chapter 399: Clearing Suspicion


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing Yin Mo say that she would help her, Mary was amused.


    She was not a fool. How could she believe such words?


    Yin Mo was locked up because she angered Yin Xun and Yin Cheng. Now, in the entire Yin family, who would take her words to heart? If she was not even allowed to enter the company, it would be strange if she had any authority.


    Although she felt disdain in her heart, she could not show it on the surface.


    Mary put on a troubled expression and even her tone became apologetic. ¡°I¡¯m really sorry, Second Miss. I really don¡¯t dare to help you with this. You¡¯re a kind person. You won¡¯t make things difficult for me like those rough people, right?¡±


    She knew how to act pitifully and guilt trip others.


    Before she came over, Yin Xun had already instructed her not to help Yin Mo without being asked to. She had to wait for Yin Mo to say it herself and ensure that the entire matter had nothing to do with her.


    Yin Mo was much more anxious than them. After not contacting Si Fan for such a long time, she could not take it anymore.


    Mary followed Yin Xun¡¯s advice and answered Yin Mo. Her words were effective. Yin Mo had always been gentle and kind. When she heard that Mary would be in a difficult position, she naturally would not force her.


    ¡°That¡¯s true. If you let me go, it would be obvious. That would implicate you,¡± Yin Mo muttered.


    At this moment, Mary¡¯s mission was to let Yin Mo out and contact Si Fan. However, she could not rush it. She had to do this flawlessly.


    She did not need to do anything. Yin Mo would definitely think of a way herself.


    After the two of them were silent for a moment. Yin Mo finally figured out what to do. Mary would be fine if it was like this.


    She said to Mary, ¡°How about this? You don¡¯t have to help me take the key. Just help me pull it out a little. I¡¯ll take care of the rest myself, okay? You can find someone else to be a witness and prove that you¡¯re not here. You didn¡¯t help. I opened the door myself.¡±


    This was perfect. Strictly speaking, this was not Mary opening the door.


    ¡°Alright, Second Miss. I¡¯ll do it now. Then, you can open it later. Can you give me some time?¡±


    After getting Yin Mo¡¯s affirmative answer, Mary smiled faintly and took the key out more than halfway. Then, she pretended that nothing had happened and slowly walked to the courtyard.


    The servant from earlier was standing at the door dutifully. Even though he saw Mary and recognized her, he did not speak out.


    Mary praised him in her heart. He was really professional.


    However, in order to get him to be her witness, Mary called him over.


    ¡°Um, I¡¯m really sorry. I forgot where the guest bathroom is. Can you tell me?¡± Mary raised her hand to cover her stomach and pretended to have a stomachache.


    The servant raised a hand and pointed in a direction. ¡°Go straight ahead. It¡¯s the second room on the left. Assistant Mary, haven¡¯t you been here a few times? Why don¡¯t you know where it is?¡±


    Mary smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°I¡¯ve never been there before. The situation is urgent this time, so I apologize.¡±


    After saying that, she turned her head to the side. When her gaze landed on the door of Yin Mo¡¯s room, she asked the servant in surprise, ¡°Hey, if I remember correctly, isn¡¯t that room Second Miss¡¯s? Why is there a key in it? It won¡¯t open that way.¡±


    ¡®What perfect acting,¡¯ Mary complimented herself inwardly.


    The servant followed Mary¡¯s gaze and gestured for her to keep her voice down. Then she approached Mary and whispered, ¡°The chairman locked the second daughter and deliberately inserted the key. If she asks you to help, don¡¯t pull it out. Recently, the chairman has been in a particularly bad mood because of the second daughter. He flares up rather easily.¡±


    ¡°Ah, then I¡¯ll have to be careful.¡± Mary gave a surprised look and let out two more cries before following the servant out.


    As soon as she walked out of the door, she stood up straight. ¡°My stomach doesn¡¯t hurt anymore. I don¡¯t have to go to the bathroom. I¡¯m really sorry to trouble you.¡±


    The servant said nonchalantly, ¡°It¡¯s fine. It¡¯s my duty.¡±


    Although he was puzzled, he was only a servant after all, and the two of them were of different gender, so it was not appropriate to ask for the details.


    Mary glanced over her shoulder. In an effort to clear herself of suspicion, she continued to chat with the servants, never once moving from their sight.


    While talking to the servant, Mary was observing the villa. Before long, Yin Mo opened the door and came out quietly. When she saw Mary, she gestured for Mary to help her divert the servant¡¯s attention.


    Mary nodded quietly, then took out her phone and began to introduce the Xintao app to the servant on the pretense of promoting it and attracting customers. She invited him to download and register on the app..

    The servant asked in confusion, ¡°Shouldn¡¯t the sales department be in charge of promotions?¡±


    The CEO¡¯s assistant would usually not do such a thing.


    Mary smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°It¡¯s related to the sales, but as President Yin¡¯s assistant, this is also something that I should do. It does not matter who does the promotional work. In the end, it is all for Xintao.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± The servant was convinced by Mary¡¯s explanations. ¡°But I¡¯ve been using Xintao for a long time. In order to support Miss, the chairman gave each of us servants a Zhenku phone. The condition is that we must use Xintao to shop, not Blue Fox.¡±


    ¡°One for each of the servants?¡± Now it was Mary¡¯s turn to be shocked. The chairman was certainly generous.


    To put it bluntly, she really wanted a new phone too. The phone she was using now was still a half-smartphone that she had bought three years ago.


    As the two of them spoke, there was a sudden movement in the underground garage. Both of them looked in the direction of the sound. In just a few seconds, the family¡¯s sports car was driven out.


    It was impossible to see what was going on in the car from the outside. In addition, Mary had made the servant check on Yin Mo¡¯s locked door just now. The servant would never think that Yin Mo had escaped and thought that she was still in the room.


    Therefore, when he saw the car drive out and honk at the door, he opened the door without hesitation.


    As soon as the gate was opened, the sports car rushed out and disappeared.


    The servant felt that something was wrong. He turned to Mary stiffly and asked her as if seeking comfort, ¡°Who was the one who drove out just now? The chairman doesn¡¯t seem to drive a sports car. Only the little Young Master and Second Miss drive sports cars at home. Little Young Master seems to have gone out to play. Then the one who just went out¡­¡±


    The servant could not finish his sentence.


    Mary looked at the servant, too embarrassed to reply.


    After all, she knew that it was Yin Mo who had gone out because Yin Cheng was currently still on the phone with Yin Xun to discuss business. How could he leave all of a sudden?


    No matter who it was, the servant still closed the door again and planned to go inside to talk to Yin Cheng.


    However, just as he closed the door, Yin Cheng came out of the villa. He must have heard the honking sound and came down to take a look.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s face was dark as he walked toward Mary with his phone.


    ¡°Chairman, just now¡­¡±


    ¡°How did Mo¡¯er suddenly come out? Who removed the key?¡± Just as the servant was about to report, Yin Cheng did not give him the chance to do so and asked the question directly.


    As he asked the question, he kept glancing back and forth between the servant and Mary, as if he suspected them.


    The servant quickly explained, ¡°So it was Second Miss who went out just now. But that¡¯s not right. I checked that Second Miss¡¯s door was locked just now. Why did it suddenly open?¡±


    Afraid that Yin Cheng would not believe him, the servant pointed at Mary and asked her to testify for him. ¡°Assistant Mary, you saw it just now. Was Second Miss¡¯ door locked?¡±


    Mary quickly nodded. ¡°Yes, we saw that the door was closed just now.¡±


    It was good enough to just follow the servant¡¯s lead. Otherwise, it would be easy to be suspected if she said too much.


    ¡°Xun, your sister ran away. Let¡¯s talk about this after I find your sister.¡± Although Yin Cheng still had doubts in his heart, the most important thing now was not to ask questions but to find Yin Mo.


    Mary watched the video call between Yin Cheng and Yin Xun from the side. She did not dare to say a word. She felt like she was stealing from a good friend¡¯s house. She felt terribly guilty.


    It was worse because this matter was related to Yin Xun. She had already troubled Yin Xun enough. She could not continue to trouble Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun persuaded Yin Cheng over the phone, ¡°Dad, since Yin Mo wants to go out so badly, let her go. How can a living person stay locked up? You can only lock her up for a few days, not forever. This method can¡¯t stop her from loving Si Fan.¡±


    ¡°Hey, that doesn¡¯t make sense, Xun. Didn¡¯t you ask me to bring her back home and lock her up?¡± Yin Cheng finally reacted.


    ¡°Ahem¡­¡± On the other end of the line, Yin Xun coughed and said, ¡°At that time, I asked you to do that because I was afraid that Yin Mo would leak the secrets to Si Fan. But now, I¡¯m not afraid that Yin Mo will tell anyone about the kidnapping. You don¡¯t have to worry about it anymore. I¡¯ll think of a way to save Mary¡¯s brother.¡±


    Mary¡¯s eyes reddened when she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words. Afraid that she would lose her composure, she quickly lowered her head.


    Yin Cheng glanced at Mary and sighed. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll listen to you.¡±


    He did not hang up the phone. Yin Cheng turned around and wanted to go back. Before he left, he comforted Mary, ¡°Mary, I apologize to you on behalf of Yin Mo. Don¡¯t worry, after Xun saves your brother, our Yin family will definitely compensate you..¡±

    In the Blue Fox company building, Si Fan was sitting in front of the computer with a frown. He lowered his head slightly, deep in thought.


    He believed that he was now in control of Yin Xun¡¯s lifeline. Unless Yin Xun wanted to go to jail, she would not act rashly. Moreover, he still had Mark in his hands; Mary would do her best to help him.


    Even if some small accidents happened to Blue Fox, there was no need to worry. As long as Xintao could not go fully online and there was only one shopping website, Blue Fox would dominate. No matter how much everyone tried to boycott it, its income would not take a hit.


    Those handful of investors were short-sighted. The moment they saw something happen to Blue Fox, they immediately withdrew their investments. Even P-phone had been completely snobbish. After severing ties without thinking it through, there would come a day when they would regret it. When they realized that Blue Fox was actually doing fine, they would definitely come back to beg him for a collaboration.


    However, that was all in the future. At this moment, Blue Fox was facing a relatively serious problem. Once the investments were withdrawn, Blue Fox would face a liquidity problem.


    Now, only Zhou Meng and Wang Ran could help him, but their conditions could only be fulfilled by Yin Mo. He did not even know if Mary could let Yin Mo out.


    Si Fan looked up and opened the comment section of Xintao¡¯s homepage. It was filled with people cursing Blue Fox. This was not entirely a bad thing. At least it was trending. It could be considered as helping Blue Fox advertise for free.


    50  what if everyone had bad things to say? In the end, they had to use Blue Fox.


    As time passed, Cheng She came to look for him a few times. It was all about issues regarding the users and investors. Si Fan became more and more frustrated. In the end, he yelled at Cheng She to get out. After that, Cheng She did not dare to look for him again.


    Just as Si Fan¡¯s patience was about to run out, he finally heard that familiar voice.


    ¡°Fan.¡±


    The office door was opened. Si Fan looked up and saw Yin Mo standing at the door.


    She was finally here. Si Fan immediately adjusted his expression and raised the corners of his mouth slightly into a smile. However, when he saw Yin Mo¡¯s clothes, the smile on his face froze.


    At this moment, Yin Mo looked like a runaway. Her hair was slightly messy and she was wearing pajamas and slippers. She looked very unkempt.


    51  Fan looked at her for a long time before reacting. He tried his best to maintain his smile.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, what are you¡­¡± Si Fan¡¯s lips curled into a smile, but he frowned unconsciously. ¡°Is this how you traveled to the company?¡±


    If she was dressed like this, would the employees not see it? Everyone knew Yin Mo. It was so embarrassing.


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were red and she looked aggrieved. She sobbed and ran to Si Fan. She threw herself into his arms hurriedly. ¡°Fan, I missed you so much. Dad locked me up for so long and tried to force us to break up. Thank goodness I escaped today. Otherwise, I don¡¯t know how long I would have been locked up¡­¡±


    Because she was too emotional, Yin Mo¡¯s voice was trembling, and even her body was shaking slightly.


    ¡°Fan, I was locked up for your sake. Don¡¯t you care about me anymore¡­¡± Yin Mo buried herself in Si Fan¡¯s arms and complained as she cried.


    Looking at Yin Mo in his arms, a hint of disgust flashed across Si Fan¡¯s face, but he quickly adjusted his expression.


    Si Fan hugged Yin Mo intimately and patted her back gently. ¡°It¡¯s alright, Mo¡¯er. Aren¡¯t you out now? I couldn¡¯t contact you previously and guessed that something had happened to you. After that, I sent loads of people to look for you. When I found out that you were at home and weren¡¯t in danger, I was relieved.¡±


    Si Fan reached out, held Yin Mo¡¯s chin, and gently lifted her face. He softly wiped away the tears on her face, then slowly kissed her affectionately.


    After a long and gentle kiss, Yin Mo was no longer crying. Her face was red, and her look of grievance had turned into shyness.


    ¡°Fan, although my father and sister both want me to leave you, don¡¯t worry. No matter what happens, I won¡¯t leave you. I¡¯ve already told them. I believe they¡¯ll understand me in the end. But when are you going to my house to ask for marriage, Fan? Shouldn¡¯t we get engaged already? We can¡¯t delay any longer. It doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t have money now. My family has money. As long as we get married, you¡¯ll have a share of my family¡¯s wealth.¡± Yin Mo looked at Si Fan affectionately, her eyes filled with hope.


    When he heard that he could get a share of the money, Si Fan¡¯s eyes instantly lit up, but¡­


    He hid the emotions in his eyes and said to Yin Mo, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mo¡¯er. I¡¯m not capable enough and still can¡¯t promise you a good life. I¡¯ve already said that I won¡¯t take your family¡¯s money. I love you, so I should be the one to give you the money. However, I¡¯m in trouble now and can¡¯t get engaged to you for the time being.¡±


    Sighing, Si Fan said, ¡°Mo¡¯er, can you do me a favor?¡±

    Chapter 402: Business Opportunity


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What is it?¡± Yin Mo looked at Si Fan in confusion.


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo and said, ¡°Actually, it¡¯s not about helping just me. It¡¯s about the two of us. Mo¡¯er, do you want to marry me?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s eyes instantly widened as she nodded repeatedly. ¡°Of course I do. We¡¯ve been together for so long. I¡¯ve always been looking forward to marrying you. What¡¯s the matter? Tell me. As long as I can do it, I¡¯ll help you no matter what!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m in some trouble now and need your family¡¯s help. I have a contract. Help me get your family to sign and stamp it. I know your family always had a problem with me. As long as you succeed this time, your family will never think of separating us again. I can propose to you without hesitation.¡± Si Fan grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s shoulders with both hands and stared at her with a burning gaze.


    ¡°Fan, if you¡¯re worried my family will refuse, that¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll convince them. My family doesn¡¯t lack money, so I don¡¯t need you to support me financially. You don¡¯t have to worry about money,¡± Yin Mo advised.


    Si Fan¡¯s expression darkened. He looked displeased. ¡°Mo¡¯er, don¡¯t you want to help me?¡±


    Seeing that Si Fan had misunderstood her, Yin Mo quickly explained, ¡°No, I¡¯m just feeling sorry for you. I know that you¡¯ve been worried about Blue Fox recently and haven¡¯t been able to rest well.¡±


    It was precisely because she saw that Si Fan was having a hard time recently that she did all those bad things.


    ¡°I know you don¡¯t mind, but I can¡¯t just take it for granted. I¡¯m still a man. When we marry in the future, I have the obligation to give you a good life. Besides, do you want others to laugh at us? Do you want them to gossip that the second daughter of the Yin family got a husband who leeches off his wife and doesn¡¯t have any ability? Mo¡¯er, I¡¯m doing this for you.¡± In the face of Yin Mo¡¯s hesitation, Si Fan was already getting furious and internally cursed Yin Mo for being stupid.


    If not for the fact that he needed Yin Mo¡¯s help now, he would have slapped her long ago. Did she not realize it was all Yin Xun¡¯s fault that he became like this?


    On the other hand, Yin Mo barely helped. She would only be a burden. It was not easy to get her to do something and, in the end, she would mess up anyway. Fortunately, she did not expose him previously.


    Now that there was something that really needed her help, she actually dared to refuse.


    However, although his heart was filled with anger, Si Fan did not show it. Instead, he coaxed Yin Mo nicely.


    His reasoning finally moved Yin Mo. When she heard that it was all for her own good, Yin Mo was touched.


    ¡°Fan, you¡¯re so good to me. It¡¯s as you said. Daddy and Mommy dote on Sister more now and they listen to everything she says. I¡¯m like an adopted child. Daddy allows Sister to do what she likes outside every day, but he doesn¡¯t let me go out to be with you.¡±


    ¡°But Sister is indeed better than me, so it¡¯s reasonable for them to be biased. Luckily, I still have you. As long as you treat me well, I won¡¯t ask for anything else.¡± Yin Mo was touched, but when she thought of her parents¡¯ bias, her heart sank again and her face darkened.


    Si Fan encouraged her. ¡°You can help them too, but before that, you have to help me first. As long as I succeed, I¡¯ll naturally take care of your parents. You don¡¯t have to worry.¡±


    ¡°Then what can I do?¡± Yin Mo looked at Si Fan blankly.


    Although her ambition was not to run a company, as a daughter, how could she just accept her parents¡¯ bias lying down? She also wanted to do something, but she did not have the ability.


    When she heard Si Fan say that she could help her parents, she was instantly tempted.


    ¡°It¡¯s like this. I have a friend who wants to open a five-star hotel. Now, she lacks a construction company to work with. How can I miss such a good opportunity? I¡¯ve fought for this project. Now I¡¯ll hand it to you. Don¡¯t tell your parents. Try to win it yourself. This is a good project. Your parents will definitely look at you in a different light after this.¡±


    Si Fan gently pushed Yin Mo away and opened a drawer. He took out a document and handed it to Yin Mo.


    ¡°Although we know each other¡¯s feelings, others don¡¯t understand, especially your parents. They always misunderstand us. Now is the best time to resolve this misunderstanding. Mo¡¯er, don¡¯t alienate your family because of me. We should work hard together..¡±

    ¡°Fan¡­¡± Yin Mo looked at Si Fan, her eyes filled with gratitude. She almost cried again.


    Yin Mo quickly raised her hand and gently wiped her eyes. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to go so far for me. I¡¯m sorry. When I was at home, I thought you had changed. It seems I didn¡¯t trust you enough.¡±


    Si Fan gently placed his hand on the top of Yin Mo¡¯s head and comforted her as if he was coaxing a child. ¡°It¡¯s alright. You can always be a child with me and vent your temper. It¡¯s my duty to accept all your flaws. Mo¡¯er, do you agree to help me?¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll do what you say.¡± Yin Mo nodded emotionally and agreed immediately.


    However, she soon thought of a problem. ¡°Fan, although I really want to help you, what should I do? Dad and Sister banned me from entering the company a long time ago. How can I stamp it? If it needs to be signed, why can¡¯t I just give them the contract? Could there be a problem with the contract?¡±


    Yin Mo said these words casually, but she did not expect Si Fan to take them so seriously. His face immediately darkened as he snarled, ¡°Why? Are you suspecting me? If it weren¡¯t for you, I wouldn¡¯t need to go through the trouble. It wasn¡¯t easy for me to negotiate this contract. If you don¡¯t want it, forget it. There are many construction companies who want it.¡±


    As he spoke, Si Fan was about to snatch the contract back.


    Yin Mo quickly avoided his grasp and apologized. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Fan. I¡¯m not doubting your intentions. I¡¯ve never doubted your feelings for me! I¡¯m just curious. Can¡¯t you just hand this contract to my father? When the time comes, he¡¯ll be happy even if I¡¯m the one who wins the contract¡­¡±


    ¡°Of course not!¡± Si Fan immediately said.


    Facing Yin Mo¡¯s puzzled gaze, he quickly explained, ¡°Mo¡¯er, I already said that this is a surprise for your father. Only by letting him see the final results will he completely change his opinion of us. As for you not being able to enter the company building¡­¡±


    Si Fan smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t you have a friend called Dai Ning who works in your company? Can¡¯t you just ask her to bring you in? Anyway, your company has so much traffic every day. As long as you wear a mask and change your outfit, the security guards won¡¯t know who you are.¡±


    ¡°Dai Ning? How did you know that she works at my father¡¯s company?¡± Yin Mo asked.


    ¡°Ahem¡­¡± Si Fan pretended to cough and said, ¡°I heard about it by accident. Isn¡¯t she your best friend? You two are so close. She definitely won¡¯t reject this small favor. I heard that she¡¯s been chased out by her family and is very short of money. If it doesn¡¯t work out, give her some money and ask her for help again.¡±


    However, Yin Mo still had some concerns. ¡°But, I need to swipe a card everywhere in the company. Even if I go get through the entrance, I can¡¯t go into my father¡¯s office even if I want to. I don¡¯t even have an elevator card and my father¡¯s office is usually locked. I can¡¯t enter without a special card. Dai Ning is just a small clerk and doesn¡¯t have much power.¡±


    Si Fan became more and more frustrated. Although he tried his best to hide it, his voice was still a few degrees colder. He said in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. I¡¯ve already gotten the technical department to make a universal card.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡±


    Before Yin Mo could voice her concerns, Si Fan interrupted her. ¡°No buts.


    Unless you don¡¯t want to marry me, why wouldn¡¯t you agree to do such a small thing?¡±


    ¡°As for the signature, as long as you think of a way to get your father to sign a piece of white paper, we can complete the contract.¡±


    Si Fan had already thought of all the solutions. All that was left was for Yin Mo to do it now. Moreover, all of this was for her sake. Yin Mo could not bear to reject.


    ¡°Will there be trouble?¡± Yin Mo was still a little worried.


    Si Fan held Yin Mo¡¯s hand gently and looked at her affectionately. ¡°Silly girl, how long have we been together? Don¡¯t you trust me? How could I ever harm you? Everything you¡¯ve done is for our future. You definitely won¡¯t refuse me now, right?¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Si Fan and the last bit of hesitation disappeared. She threw herself into Si Fan¡¯s arms again. ¡°Fan, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯ll definitely succeed.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I trust you.¡± Si Fan finally wore a satisfied smile.


    Yin Mo was still in her pajamas. The silk pajamas were so soft that it felt as if they were not even there. When she left the house, she only put on a thin coat because of the emergency.


    Originally, when she threw herself into Si Fan¡¯s arms, her coat was already about to slip off. After moving around so much, her coat fell off completely..

    At this moment, her entire body was buried in Si Fan¡¯s arms. Si Fan was wearing a suit. Coupled with the fact that Si Fan¡¯s body was muscly, the sensation was hard and uncomfortable for her.


    The two of them hugged for a long time. Yin Mo could not bear to leave Si Fan¡¯s embrace. In order to find a more comfortable position, she began to shift around.


    When Si Fan looked down on Yin Mo, he could not control his body¡¯s urges. He raised his hand to stop Yin Mo and said in a hoarse voice, ¡°Mo¡¯er, don¡¯t move.¡±


    Yin Mo and Si Fan had been together for so long that she was very familiar with the changes in Si Fan¡¯s body. At this moment, she knew what was going on. Sensing his reaction, her face turned red and she did not dare to move.


    However, when she thought about how long it had been since she got intimate with Si Fan, her body began to gradually feel something, and she started to be untoward thoughts again.


    This was Si Fan¡¯s office, and the door was still closed. Yin Mo thought that it should be fine.


    In the end, her body¡¯s desire overcame her sense of shame. She even started to take the initiative to tease Si Fan.


    Si Fan had been very frustrated recently, and he was already full of anger. With Yin Mo teasing him, he could no longer control himself. He raised his hand and pulled Yin Mo into his arms fiercely. He lowered his head and kissed her, seizing her powerfully.


    Because his actions were rough and he did not hold back, he hurt Yin Mo. Yin Mo instinctively let out a few moans. When Si Fan heard those sounds, his actions became even more audacious.


    Just as the two of them were unable to hold back their passion, there was an untimely knock on the office door.


    Si Fan originally did not intend to pay attention to it, but the knocking on the door became heavier and heavier. It was as if it was knocking directly on his heart, causing the passion that had just ignited to instantly extinguish.


    ¡°What is it?¡± Si Fan pushed Yin Mo away and casually picked up the jacket that Yin Mo had dropped just now to cover his legs and hide anything unusual.


    Yin Mo had yet to react to the sudden interruption and her eyes were filled with confusion.


    When she heard the noise outside, she realized what was happening. She immediately walked to the other side of the table and sat down, embarrassed and upset. She tried to use the table to cover her slightly exposed body.


    After Cheng She, who was standing outside, received Si Fan¡¯s response, he opened the door and walked in.


    ¡°We¡­¡± He walked to Si Fan¡¯s side. Just as he was about to report to Si Fan, he suddenly felt that something was amiss. From the corner of his eye, he spotted Yin Mo sitting beside him.


    Si Fan lowered his head slightly to look at the computer. His face was ashen and he looked like he was suppressing his anger.


    Cheng She did not move his head, but his eyes darted to the side and he saw Yin Mo¡¯s current appearance.


    Yin Mo¡¯s lips were slightly swollen, and her face was flushed. Her eyes were still a little blurry, and when he saw Si Fan¡¯s pale face and the thin coat covering his legs, Cheng She immediately understood what had just happened in the office. It seemed like he had disturbed a nice moment.


    ¡°Why aren¡¯t you saying anything?¡± Si Fan recovered his composure a little. He raised his eyes to glance at Cheng Shen and spoke in a low voice.


    Only then did Cheng She realize that he was blanking out. He coughed to cover up his embarrassment and said, ¡°There are a few new employees in our technical department. Dong Zi and the others asked if they could leave. They submitted their resignation application a while ago.¡±


    With that, Cheng She took a step back slightly and prepared to evade at any time. He was afraid that Si Fan would be angry and throw something at him.


    Now was the time when Blue Fox needed people the most. Dong Zi and the others had been working for Si Fan since the beginning. Si Fan would surely be furious that they had left when Blue Fox was at the most difficult time.


    ¡°President Si, there¡¯s actually a reason why they want to resign. Their family¡­¡±


    ¡°Alright, there¡¯s no need to explain. I understand.¡± Si Fan had no intention of listening to Cheng She¡¯s explanation and interrupted him directly. Moreover, his expression did not even show any signs of anger.


    This confused Cheng She. After finding out that important employees wanted to leave when they were needed the most, should the boss not be furious and throw something? Why was there no reaction?


    Could it be that Si Fan had always disliked them and could not wait for them to leave? If that was the case, should he also submit his resignation?


    After thinking about it carefully, Cheng She felt that it was not a very feasible idea.


    Although he and Dong Zi had joined at about the same time, their positions were very different. Dong Zi was only in charge of technical matters, while he was in charge of helping Si Fan deal with all kinds of things.


    Dong Zi did not know about those dirty dealings, but he did. With this thought in mind, Cheng She suddenly felt discouraged.


    ¡°Is it true that everyone who left Blue Fox ends up going to Xintao?¡± Si Fan suddenly asked.


    Cheng She immediately replied, ¡°Some of them did go to Xintao, but some of them went to other companies.¡±


    ¡°Then do you want to go to Xintao?¡± Si Fan asked him calmly..

    Cheng She hurriedly denied it. ¡°President Si, I swear that I never had such thoughts. I never thought about it before, and never will. I¡¯ve never interacted with Xintao¡¯s employees. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can check my phone at any time!¡±


    Cheng She was startled by Si Fan¡¯s question and quickly thought about whether he had mentioned this to anyone. After assuring himself that he had only thought about it internally, he heaved a sigh of relief.


    Si Fan took a deep look at Cheng She before he slowly said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to be nervous. I don¡¯t plan to blame you. It makes sense if you want to leave. After all, Xintao is currently in its prosperous stage. However, since you¡¯re my assistant, I can reveal a piece of news to you. Xintao won¡¯t be active for long. In the future, shopping will still be dominated by Blue Fox. As for those people who want to go to Xintao, let them leave. There will come a day when they will regret it.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re right, President. After all, our Blue Fox has been on the field for so many years. Our foundation has long been stable. Xintao is just a newly started company. What right does it have to stand next to Blue Fox?¡± Cheng She echoed the sentiment. ¡°I don¡¯t care what others think. In any case, I won¡¯t leave Blue Fox. It¡¯s rare to have a boss like you. I have to cherish my position.¡±


    A satisfied look appeared on Si Fan¡¯s face. ¡°As expected of my handpicked assistant. You have good taste. However, I actually need you to go to Xintao this time. Can you help me with this?¡±


    Cheng She¡¯s eyes lit up. Could it be that Si Fan was planning to fire him? Would such a good thing really happen?


    Although he was looking forward to it, he pretended to be sad on the surface. Cheng She asked worriedly, ¡°Go to Xintao? CEO Si, do you think that I¡¯m not serious about my work? Do you see me as incapable, annoying, and prone to mistakes? Do you plan to fire me?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not firing you, but I want to give you an important mission. Blue Fox is in a critical period now. It¡¯s the best opportunity to infiltrate Xintao. I want you to¡­¡± Si Fan suddenly stopped when he said this. He looked at Yin Mo. ¡°Mo¡¯er, Assistant Cheng and I have some work to discuss. Can you go back first? You¡¯re still wearing your thin pajamas. What if you catch a cold? It won¡¯t be good if this affects your health.¡±


    Yin Mo originally wanted to listen to Si Fan¡¯s business. Since Si Fan did not want her to continue listening, she could only leave.


    ¡°Shall I wait for you at home?¡± Yin Mo stood up slowly, not wanting to leave at all.


    She did not want to leave Si Fan. At the same time, she was worried that Yin Cheng would come looking for her. If no one helped her, she would not have any chance of escaping once she was locked up at home again.


    Si Fan thought for a moment and said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to go home first. Go and hang out with your best friend for a while. You can go back after you¡¯re done with that.¡± After saying that, he gave Yin Mo a significant look.


    Yin Mo knew what Si Fan meant. She nodded and reluctantly left the office.


    Seeing Yin Mo leave, Si Fan said, ¡°Go to Xintao for me to monitor Yin Xun.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±?!¡±


    What was going on? Why did he have to monitor Yin Xun? Was this a test of his loyalty or did he really think this was a good idea? Cheng She did not know how to respond for a moment.


    He had spent enough time in Blue Fox. He had been thinking about how to leave this place without attracting Si Fan¡¯s attention.


    If Si Fan really gave him a chance to leave, he would jump with joy. However, asking him to monitor Yin Xun was not great. He was not an expert at gathering intel.


    Cheng She asked in confusion, ¡°President Si, what do you mean?¡±


    ¡°Exactly what it sounds like. Pretend to leave Blue Fox and go to Xintao to find work. At the same time, help me monitor Yin Xun¡¯s every move and report Xintao¡¯s information to me at any time. I know this is a little difficult for you, but I don¡¯t trust anyone but you. You¡¯ve been with me for so many years. I believe you can complete this mission.¡±


    Si Fan stood up and patted Cheng She¡¯s shoulder to encourage him.


    Only then did Cheng She fully understand what Si Fan meant. He wanted him to be a spy. ¡°But I¡­¡±


    Cheng She felt that this mission was inappropriate and wanted to reject it, but Si Fan did not give him a chance to. He instantly changed the topic. ¡°We¡¯ll talk about it later. Go and call Dong Zi over. I have something to discuss with him.¡±


    Cheng She had no choice but to obediently summon Dong Zi. As for the undercover work, he would ask Si Fan about it when he had the chance.


    Soon, Dong Zi was brought over by Cheng She. Perhaps it was because he just resigned that Dong Zi acted differently. Usually, he would act like a mouse seeing a cat when he saw Si Fan. This time, not only was he not afraid, he even raised his chin haughtily..

    Seeing Dong Zi like this, Cheng She inexplicably began to feel nervous.


    He knew that Dong Zi had completed the resignation procedures, so he believed that Si Fan could no longer control him. That was why he was fearless. Coupled with the fact that he had been working overtime continuously because of Si Fan¡¯s orders and did not get overtime pay, Dong Zi must have been unable to take it anymore.


    However, Dong Zi did not know about Si Fan¡¯s methods. Even if he was not in the company, it would be easy to deal with him.


    ¡°President Si, I¡¯m no longer an employee of Blue Fox. Why did you call me over? Do you want to make up for the overtime pay you owe me?¡± Dong Zi had always been thinking about his overtime pay. In the past, he had mentioned it a few times, but he had just been told by the finance department that Si Fan was not allowed to pay it.


    The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His friends in Xintao were always bragging to him about their overtime pay, and the work was easy.


    He mulled over his situation. He had worked so hard for the company. Not only did he not receive overtime pay, but his boss did not even offer a word of comfort. Instead, he was scolded a lot.


    Cheng She looked at Dong Zi and then at Si Fan, thinking that Si Fan would surely lose his temper any moment now. He instinctively took a step back so that he could avoid Si Fan¡¯s wrath.


    Now that Blue Fox was deteriorating by the day, how could Si Fan pay overtime?


    After hearing Dong Zi¡¯s words, Si Fan did not say anything. He just stared at him.


    Cheng She was quite familiar with Si Fan¡¯s methods. He hurriedly shot Dong Zi a look, indicating for him to watch his mouth. However, Dong Zi did not even look at him. He stared fearlessly at Si Fan.


    The two of them looked at each other for a while before Si Fan suddenly laughed.


    ¡°You want overtime pay? I can give it to you. Not only will pay your backed-up overtime salary, but I will also give you an additional sum as long as you help me do one thing. How does that sound?¡± Si Fan¡¯s gaze was calm, and he did not seem angry.


    Dong Zi¡¯s small eyes widened when he heard the offer. He had worked for Blue Fox for so many years, and his accumulated overtime pay was not a small sum. He was instantly tempted. He asked, ¡°What is it?¡±


    Si Fan said slowly, ¡°I know that you left Blue Fox because you want to work at Xintao. A few of our former employees have gone there as well. I know all of this. Their abilities were poor, and I¡¯ve never taken them seriously. You¡¯re different. Your abilities arc only slightly inferior to Mi Jin¡¯s. If you can be a spy in Xintao for me, I think things will be much easier.¡±


    As soon as Si Fan finished speaking, Dong Zi and Cheng She were stunned.


    ¡°President Si, I¡¯ve been with Blue Fox for so long. If I suddenly leave my job and go to Xintao, Xintao might not even accept me. President Si, if you don¡¯t want to give me the money, just say it. Don¡¯t tell me to do something impossible.¡± Dong Zi frowned.


    Si Fan smiled slightly and said confidently, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about this. I¡¯ll create this opportunity for you. When you officially become an employee of Xintao, just remember to use your skills to tackle Xintao. Of course, you don¡¯t have to be so hasty. First, you have to get some achievements and strive to make Yin Xun trust you. When the time comes, I¡¯ll give you a major project and you can help me. In the early stages, you can even help Xintao challenge Blue Fox. I¡¯ll naturally find a way to resolve it. After you help me completely take down Xintao, you can choose to stay or leave. I¡¯ll even give you a large sum of money. How about that?¡±


    At this moment, Dong Zi felt as if he was not working in a commercial company but an undercover intelligence agency. His rationality told him not to accept, but he really wanted the money.


    Seeing that Dong Zi was deep in thought, Si Fan gave Cheng She a look, indicating for him to speak.


    ¡°Dong Zi, don¡¯t worry about the money. Don¡¯t you know CEO Si? He always keeps his word. If he can¡¯t pay overtime, no one would get it. When has he lied? If he said he will pay, he surely will. Just now, he already asked me to withdraw the money. As long as you agree to the request, you can take a third. The rest will be given to you after you succeed, and there will be an additional reward.¡± After Cheng She finished speaking, he wiped his forehead.


    Dong Zi looked at Cheng She. No one else in Blue Fox could be trusted. He only trusted Cheng She. Since Cheng She had spoken up, it meant that Si Fan would really give him money.


    Who would refuse money? Dong Zi wanted to go to Xintao to earn more money. If there was a shortcut, there was no need to bake the long road.


    ¡°Alright, President Si. I¡¯m in.¡± Dong Zi thought for a moment and finally agreed.. ¡°But what should I do?¡±

    Si Fan smiled in satisfaction. He raised his hand and patted Dong Zi¡¯s shoulder. ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. For now, you can stay in the company and pretend that you haven¡¯t resigned. Of course, you don¡¯t have to do any work. You just have to stay in the company. I¡¯ll inform you when things are ready. Go to the finance department to collect your money first.¡±


    ¡°Alright, President Si.¡± Dong Zi was pleased when he heard that he would receive the money.


    Si Fan waved him away, but when Dong Zi reached the door and was about to open it, he suddenly called out to him.


    ¡°Dong Zi, you¡¯re a smart person. You should know what side to take, right?¡± Si Fan stared deeply at Dong Zi. His threat was self-evident.


    The corners of Dong Zi¡¯s mouth twitched as he nodded and said, ¡°Of course. Don¡¯t worry about this, CEO Si. I won¡¯t say no to anyone or money.¡±


    After receiving Dong Zi¡¯s assurance, Si Fan nodded in satisfaction and let him go-


    After Dong Zi left the office, Si Fan looked at Cheng She and said in a deep voice, ¡°The mission I gave you is to monitor him. It¡¯s fine if he helps us, but if he gets any other ideas, you have to report to me promptly.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±?¡±


    It turned out that this was what Si Fan wanted him to be an undercover agent for. However, why did he have to choose him?


    ¡°President Si, Dong Zi is a trustworthy person. Since you¡¯ve already asked him to be an undercover agent, there¡¯s no need for me to go too. If we go together, Yin Xun will definitely be suspicious. What if we¡¯re discovered?¡± Cheng She frowned. He wanted to leave Blue Fox, but he did not want to be an undercover agent. He wanted to completely cut ties with Si Fan.


    However, Si Fan said nonchalantly, ¡°You¡¯ve been with me for the longest time. We¡¯re the closest. I won¡¯t entrust this task to anyone else. Only you can do it. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take care of these things. Do you think I don¡¯t understand Dong Zi? He¡¯s unreliable. After we succeed, we¡¯ll find an excuse to say that he didn¡¯t handle things well. We won¡¯t give him any more money. When the time comes, I¡¯ll give it all to you.¡±


    Si Fan wanted to burn the bridge after crossing it. He had not even crossed it yet, but he was already prepared to tear it down.


    Cheng She thought that if Si Fan could treat Dong Zi like this, he could also treat him like this. On the day they succeeded, he would probably be kicked away with this same excuse.


    However, since Si Fan had already put it this way, Cheng She could not refuse. However, he did want to leave Blue Fox. Perhaps this was an opportunity.


    ¡°Alright, President Si. I will not let you down,¡± Cheng She promised.


    Seeing that Cheng She had given his word, Si Fan nodded contentedly. ¡°Alright, go deal with Dong Zi. We shouldn¡¯t have given him the money, but we still need him to do something, after all. Let¡¯s put on a show first. As for the rest of the money, don¡¯t give it to him.¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Cheng She replied and left.


    Si Fan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked outside. There were people coming and going downstairs, and the traffic was endless. Si Fan thought of Yin Mo, who had just left, and wondered if she had an appointment with Dai Ning already.


    Yin Mo had already changed her clothes before she left Blue Fox. She even took a spare phone. At this moment, she was sitting in a taxi. She held her phone and looked at Si Fan¡¯s phone number, wondering if she should call him.


    She really wanted to help Si Fan, but she felt that it was not a good idea to steal the official seal. Before this, she had already done something wrong and angered Yin Cheng half to death. What if Yin Cheng found out again?


    Although she had good intentions, Yin Cheng would definitely misunderstand if he did not know the full story.


    After hesitating for a long time, she looked at Si Fan¡¯s name. In the end, she did not press it. Instead, she swiped a few times and found Dai Ning¡¯s number.


    This time, she did not hesitate and made the call


    Yin Mo soon arranged to meet Dai Ning at the coffee shop downstairs of the Yin Corporation. It was working hours now, so Dai Ning was a little hesitant. She felt that it was not good to go out directly.


    She had scruples in her heart, but she could not resist Yin Mo¡¯s pleading. Yin Mo repeatedly cried and begged. In the end, Dai Ning¡¯s heart gave in and she agreed.


    When Yin Mo arrived, Dai Ning was already there. She was sitting by the window reading a book with a cup of coffee beside her.


    Yin Mo stood at the door and looked at Dai Ning. She was not in a hurry to go over. She wanted to see if Dai Ning would spot her first.


    When she first met Dai Ning, she was in the library. At that time, Dai Ning was also focused on reading like now. At that time, Yin Mo suddenly had her period and did not bring anything to cover it. In this moment of emergency, Dai Ning helped her..

    From then on, the two of them began to contact each other. Later on, they realized that their personalities were very compatible and they became best friends.


    After many years, she did not expect Dai Ning to still love studying so much. She did not even waste a little bit of time.


    Dai Ning was so engrossed in reading that she did not even raise her head to look over. In the end, the waiter came over and asked Yin Mo if she needed any help. Dai Ning only looked up when she heard the sound.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, you¡¯re here.¡± Dai Ning smiled and greeted Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo walked over and sat opposite Dai Ning. She smiled and said, ¡°Dai Ning, you¡¯re still the same as before. You really love to read.¡±


    Dai Ning shook her head and said helplessly, ¡°It¡¯s not that I like to read. It¡¯s just that there are too many things that I don¡¯t understand. I can only keep studying. My family always thinks that girls can¡¯t do anything. They¡¯d rather me find a good person to marry and be done with it. That¡¯s why they never let me come into contact with business problems. They would rather hand the company to my cousin.¡±


    With a sigh, Dai Ning added, ¡°But Mo¡¯er, your sister is so nice. After she learned about me, she was willing to give me a chance to show off what I can do with business. She¡¯s so good to me, so I can¡¯t let her down.¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s expression changed slightly. She did not expect Dai Ning to be close to Yin Xun.


    She smiled stiffly. ¡°Are you close to my sister?¡±


    ¡°I like President Yin very much, but President Yin would never pay attention to me, right? After all, there are so many employees in her company, and she is always busy. I am very grateful that she was able to help me.¡± When she mentioned Yin Xun, Dai Ning¡¯s face was filled with admiration. ¡°Oh right, President Yin knows that we arc good friends. Did you put in a good word for me in front of her?¡±


    Yin Mo smiled awkwardly and did not answer this question. Instead, she changed the topic. ¡°Dai Ning, we haven¡¯t seen each other for a long time, right? How have you been recently?¡±


    Dai Ning did not notice Yin Mo¡¯s awkwardness. She took a sip of coffee and smiled as she said, ¡°I have been doing well recently. With President Yin¡¯s help, I feel that I can go back and challenge my cousin for control of the company in the future. What about you? How have you been? I have not heard any news about you recently. How are things between you and Si Fan?¡±


    ¡°We¡­¡± Yin Mo suddenly paused. She thought of Si Fan¡¯s instructions before they left. They could not tell Dai Ning what they had done, even if Dai Ning was on good terms with her.


    Everyone had a jealous side. Now, Dai Ning and she called each other best friends because she was not valued by her family.


    In a way, they were in the same boat. She felt that they were the same kind of people, which was why they were so close.


    Once Dai Ning knew that she would eventually surpass her in her career, Dai Ning would definitely be jealous of her. Therefore, she could not tell Dai Ning about this directly. A woman¡¯s jealousy was terrifying.


    At the thought of this, Yin Mo sobbed softly. ¡°Something happened between him and me recently. Dai Ning, I don¡¯t know who to rant to. No one seems to be willing to talk to me, so I could only look for you. Are you willing to stay with me for a while?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s sudden crying shocked Dai Ning. She thought that Yin Mo had encountered something major and quickly wiped away her tears with a tissue. At the same time, she comforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t cry. I¡¯m here. If there¡¯s anything, tell me. We¡¯re best friends. No matter what it is, I¡¯ll help you.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Yin Mo said delightedly. Then, she realized that she was too happy and quickly pretended to cry.


    Dai Ning smiled gently. ¡°Of course. I¡¯m here. Don¡¯t be afraid.¡±


    Yin Mo picked up a tissue and wiped her tears. After she was done, she said, ¡°It¡¯s not appropriate to talk here. Can we talk in the private room?¡±


    Faced with Yin Mo¡¯s pleading, Dai Ning could not bear to reject her. ¡°Sure, let¡¯s go.¡±


    The two of them booked another private room. Dai Ning sat beside Yin Mo and asked gently, ¡°If you have anything on your mind, just tell me. As long as I can help, I will.¡±


    Yin Mo looked at the coffee in front of her and felt a little awkward. There was nothing wrong between her and Si Fan. She had not thought of what to say.


    Now, she needed to think of a reason to send Dai Ning away.


    ¡°Ouch, my stomach hurts.¡± Yin Mo suddenly covered her stomach and started to moan.


    Dai Ning was shocked. She quickly supported Yin Mo and asked anxiously, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Why does your stomach suddenly hurt? Did you eat something bad?¡±


    Seeing that Dai Ning believed her act, Yin Mo explained, ¡°I think I¡¯m on my period. You know that my stomach always hurts during this time. I didn¡¯t expect it to happen so soon this time.. Can you help me buy some painkillers?¡±

    ¡°Oh, alright. Wait for me. I¡¯ll be back soon.¡± Dai Ning did not say anything else and quickly walked out of the coffee shop.


    After her figure disappeared from sight, Yin Mo quickly opened her bag and took out a small bag of white powder.


    Perhaps she knew that she was doing something wrong. At this moment, Yin Mo¡¯s hand was trembling a little, so when she poured some powder into Dai Ning¡¯s coffee, she accidentally spilled some.


    After Yin Mo stirred the coffee evenly, she quickly wiped the powder on the table with a tissue before sitting back down. She took a few deep breaths and pretended to be nonchalant as she waited for Dai Ning to return.


    Dai Ning was indeed fast. She returned in less than ten minutes.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯ve bought the medicine. Hurry up and take it. Seriously, since you¡¯re not feeling well, you shouldn¡¯t come out today. You can call me over after I get off work. It¡¯s so hot outside. How much suffering¡­¡±


    Dai Ning rambled on as she helped Yin Mo take out the medicine. Then, she asked the waiter for a glass of water for Yin Mo.


    At this moment, she was not in a good state either. After running back and forth, she was breathing heavily. Her hands were shaking so much that she could not even hold the cup steadily.


    Her originally fair face was now flushed red, as though she had put on a heavy layer of blush. In addition, she was sweating profusely and her hair was soaked. Her hair stuck to both sides like it was drawn onto her skin.


    Dai Ning was relieved to see Yin Mo take the medicine. She had been running for too long and was sweating buckets. She was very thirsty now. Without thinking, she picked up her cup of coffee and drank. She did not even care to maintain a ladylike image and gulped down half of it in one go.


    After drinking it, she realized something was wrong. ¡°Strange, this coffee should be a fresh cup. I haven¡¯t drunk it yet. Why is the latte art already gone?¡± Yin Mo said guiltily, ¡°You took a sip before you left. Did you forget?¡±


    ¡°Oh, look at my memory. I can¡¯t believe I forgot. I¡¯ve been a little busy recently. I haven¡¯t been resting well. My brain isn¡¯t working so great.¡± Dai Ning smiled awkwardly. ¡°Let¡¯s continue the topic just now. What happened between you and Si Fan?¡±


    Yin Mo had nothing to say, so she could only make up a story.


    Dai Ning listened attentively, but before she finished listening, she began to doze off, and her eyes gradually became unfocused.


    Seeing that the medicine was starting to take effect, Yin Mo began to soften her voice and stared at Dai Ning without blinking.


    This medicine was given to her by Si Fan. It was said to be a powerful sleeping pill that was not available in the country. Si Fan had asked someone to buy it from overseas. It was very expensive.


    When Yin Mo first received it, her heart was filled with gratitude. She did not expect Si Fan to be so considerate toward her.


    The drug was indeed powerful. Dai Ning had only drunk half a cup of coffee. Not long after, there was a bang. Dai Ning lay on the table and was fast asleep.


    ¡°Dai Ning¡­¡± Yin Mo called out to her softly, but there was no response. She reached out and patted her gently twice, but there was still no response.


    After confirming that Dai Ning was really asleep, Yin Mo finally fought her nerves and walked to Dai Ning¡¯s side to take her bag.


    Dai Ning¡¯s bag was very large, but there were only a few things inside. There was mostly just lipstick and foundation. Yin Mo only flipped through the contents a few times before she saw the employee card.


    ¡°Dai Ning, I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯ll borrow your employee card. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not doing anything bad. When I succeed, my father will definitely change his opinion of me. When he lets me return to the company to work, I¡¯ll definitely promote you and do you a favor.¡± Yin Mo looked at Dai Ning deeply and left the coffee shop apologetically.


    Before she left, she did not forget to remind the waiter not to disturb Dai Ning.


    As soon as she left the coffee shop, a man dressed in black walked into the coffee shop. The man went straight to Dai Ning¡¯s private room, but unfortunately, Yin Mo did not notice him.


    After leaving the coffee shop, Yin Mo took out her hat and mask. She lowered her head and quickly walked to the company building. At the same time, she took out her phone and sent a message.


    When she was about to reach the building, Yin Mo slowed down when she saw someone causing trouble at the entrance. The security guards were all distracted, so she continued to walk over quickly.


    In order not to attract attention, Yin Mo deliberately ignored the front door. Instead, she went in through the side door of the building.


    There were many employees in the company and everyone was busy, so no one paid attention to her. She arrived at the elevator smoothly.


    Yin Mo stared at the ever-changing numbers on the elevator display. Her heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was about to explode. She reached out a hand to cover her heart and tried to calm herself down..

 Chapter 410 - Chapter 410: Yin Mo Tries To Leave

    Chapter 410: Yin Mo Tries To Leave

    Yin Cheng¡¯s office was not very high up. Usually, the journey up would be short, but for some reason, this time it felt like the floor was much higher. Ascending each floor took a long time.


    Finally, as Yin Mo waited anxiously, the elevator arrived on the right floor. The elevator door slowly opened. Yin Mo was not in a hurry to go out. Instead, she stuck her head out to peer outside. When she saw that there was no one there, she tiptoed out.


    She knew that there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the company. Even if she avoided people today, she could not avoid the surveillance cameras. Moreover, there were always people keeping watch in the surveillance room. They would find out sooner or later.


    However, at this moment, she could not care about that. It was a rare chance for her to enter. If she failed this time, she might not get another chance.


    Yin Mo arrived at the door of Yin Cheng¡¯s office. She took out the card that Si Fan had given her and swiped it on the lock. Just as Si Fan had said, the door opened.


    Yin Mo¡¯s attention was focused on the office, so she did not notice that another person walked out from the corner of the corridor after she entered the room. That person noticed Yin Mo and walked over with a puzzled expression.


    The office door was ajar. From the outside, the person could see Yin Mo rummaging through Yin Cheng¡¯s desk. Feeling that something was wrong, he took out his phone and quietly walked away. He called Yin Xun.


    ¡°Hello, Lin Zhu, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s voice came through the phone.


    Lin Zhu was afraid that Yin Mo would hear the call, so he walked further away and asked, ¡°President Yin, I saw someone just now. Hmm, it looks like Miss Yin Mo. She is currently in the chairman¡¯s office looking for something. I recall that you said forbade her from coming to the company, right? Then now¡­¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s in my father¡¯s office? Lin Zhu, help me out. You must keep an eye on her. Don¡¯t let her come out or alarm her. Hl go over and deal with this matter immediately.¡± Before Lin Zhu could finish speaking, Yin Xun hurriedly asked for Lin Zhu¡¯s help.


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡± Although Lin Zhu was confused and did not know what was going on he would just do as he was told since Yin Xun was asking.


    Lin Zhu quietly moved to the entrance of Yin Cheng¡¯s office and peeked inside. Yin Mo was still rummaging through something, but he had no idea what she was looking for.


    While Yin Mo was not paying attention, Lin Zhu quietly closed the door and took off his shoelaces to tie the door handle. At this moment, he was glad that he was wearing sneakers today.


    Yin Mo heard the sound of the door closing and knew that she had been discovered. When she found the official seal, she quickly stamped the document and rushed to the door with the contract.


    When she tried to open the door, she realized it had been closed from the outside and would not open. Through the crack, she could see that the door had been tied shut with a shoelace.


    She was dumbfounded and felt that the situation was bad. It was obvious that someone was deliberately targeting her.


    ¡°Is there anyone outside? Can you please open the door for me? I can¡¯t get out.¡± Yin Mo called for help through the gap in the door while trying to unravel the shoelace.


    Unfortunately, the gap in the door was too small for her to touch it.


    Lin Zhu was waiting at the entrance for Yin Xun to arrive. He was standing guard because he was afraid that Yin Mo would escape.


    Upon hearing Yin Mo¡¯s voice, he said apologetically, ¡°Miss Yin Mo, I am sorry. President Yin said that she will release you when she comes. You should stay here for now. She should be here soon.¡±


    ¡°My sister?¡± Yin Mo started to panic. ¡°How did my sister know? Did you tell her? This is my father¡¯s office. I have the right to come here. Why must I listen to my sister? Let me out quickly. I still have something to do!¡±


    Lin Zhu had already said everything he needed to say. He ignored Yin Mo¡¯s words and just stood quietly at the side. Yin Mo kept asking him to release her, but Lin Zhu did not say a word.


    Lin Zhu stood by the door. Yin Mo could only hear his voice earlier, but she could not see him, so she did not know who locked her in the room.


    After talking for a long time and getting no response, Yin Mo thought that Lin Zhu had left. She began to reach for the shoelaces through the gap in the door, wanting to untie them and try to untie them


    The shoelaces were elastic, after all. Although Lin Zhu tied them tightly, the door gap widened under Yin Mo¡¯s tugging. In the end, she could reach the shoelaces.


    Yin Mo was overjoyed. She grabbed the shoelaces and used a little force to untie them. The door was finally opened.


    However, to her surprise, she saw Lin Zhu standing beside her at this moment. When Lin Zhu heard the commotion, he immediately rushed over and saw that Yin Mo had opened the door. The two of them were standing face to face at this moment, and the situation was rather awkward.


    Lin Zhu stopped Yin Mo, who was about to walk away, and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry Miss Yin Mo. Before President Yin comes, you cannot leave.¡±


    ¡°Wherever I go is my choice. It¡¯s none of your business.¡± Yin Mo frowned and reached out to push Lin Zhu away, giving him the impression that she was going to do something reckless..

 Chapter 411 - Chapter 411: Escape Failed

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Lin Zhu did not know why Yin Xun asked him to stop Yin Mo, nor did he understand the deep hatred the two sisters had. He only knew that the company had a rule that prevented Yin Mo from entering. This was something that every employee knew.


    The reason he chose to inform Yin Xun was actually for his own selfish reasons. He wanted to attract Yin Xun¡¯s attention so that he might get more work opportunities in the future.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Miss Yin Mo. If President Yin does not come, you cannot leave,¡± Lin Zhu repeated. If he let Yin Mo go now, it would be equivalent to telling Yin Xun that he was incompetent.


    When Yin Mo saw that Lin Zhu was determined to wait for Yin Xun to arrive, she immediately panicked. This matter could not be discovered by Yin Xun, or else everything would be over.


    She reached out to push Lin Zhu away. ¡°You¡¯re an employee of my company. Don¡¯t you think I can have you fired? But I don¡¯t want to do such a thing. I believe it wasn¡¯t easy for you to get this job. Hurry up and move aside. I¡¯ll pretend that this didn¡¯t happen.¡±


    No matter how hard Yin Mo tried to push Lin Zhu, he refused to budge and kept blocking the door. Although he looked thin and weak, he was rather strong. Yin Mo could not move him at all.


    Lin Zhu frowned and said, ¡°Miss Yin Mo, don¡¯t waste your energy. No matter what you say, I will not move. Also, my direct superior is President Yin. I only listen to her. Even if the chairman is around, I still have to listen to President Yin.¡±


    Yin Mo saw that using force would not work, so she started to use a softer approach. She pouted, and a layer of mist instantly appeared in her eyes. ¡°I honestly came here because I have something important to do. I can¡¯t see my sister. Please, let me leave¡­¡±


    No matter what Yin Mo said, Lin Zhu remained unmoved.


    Seeing that Lin Zhu refused to budge, Yin Mo made up her mind and decided to use that method to make Lin Zhu give way.


    She suddenly lowered her head and bent over. Then, under Lin Zhu¡¯s puzzled gaze, she charged headfirst like a bull to crash into Lin Zhu. This time, she used all the strength in her body to ram into Lin Zhu¡¯s stomach. Lin Zhu was in pain and immediately let go of the door frame.


    It was a good opening. When Yin Mo saw this, she used the opportunity to push Lin Zhu aside and rushed outside.


    Lin Zhu¡¯s stomach hurt from the impact, but when he saw that Yin Mo had run away, he ignored his pain and rushed over to catch her.


    Yin Mo¡¯s reaction speed was quite fast. Her body tilted to the side and she dodged Lin Zhu¡¯s outstretched hand. Lin Zhu was afraid that she would escape, so he did not care where he might grab her. All he wanted to do was stop Yin Mo.


    In the end, he managed to catch Yin Mo, but he did not grab her in the intended place.


    Yin Mo let out a scream and finally stopped in her tracks. She raised her hand to cover her head. Lin Zhu had grabbed her hair, but he had not seized much of it. It was just a small lock, so it actually hurt even more.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Miss Yin Mo. I didn¡¯t do it on purpose. Please return to the office and wait for President Yin to come over.¡± Lin Zhu apologized with an apologetic expression on his face, but he did not have any intention of letting go. He was still holding onto her hair tightly.


    ¡°Let go of me. It hurts¡­¡± Yin Mo did not want to go back, but Lin Zhu did not show any mercy despite her being a woman. He boldly grabbed her hair and dragged her back.


    In order to prevent her scalp from hurting too much, she could only follow Lin Zhu.


    Lin Zhu brought Yin Mo back to the office and pushed her inside. This time, he did not close the door. Instead, he stood at the door and watched her.


    This time, Yin Mo did not dare to run away. Instead, she rubbed her scalp with her heart throbbing. Lin Zhu had pulled out a fair amount of her hair just now.


    While she waited, she arranged the office desk to its original position and hid the documents in her clothes. Fortunately, she had worn a coat.


    After she was done, she sat on the sofa at the side and thought about what to do next. Suddenly, she heard Yin Xun¡¯s voice approaching from afar, followed by footsteps.


    ¡°Lin Zhu, where¡¯s Yin Mo?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    At this moment, the door was not closed. Lin Zhu pointed at her and said, ¡°Over there.¡±


    ¡°Alright, go back to work first. I¡¯ll talk to you later about thanking you.¡± Yin Xun nodded and smiled gratefully at Lin Zhu.


    Lin Zhu merely acknowledged her words and left without saying anything else.


    Yin Mo was extremely nervous as she listened to their conversation.


    She had just gotten into a fight with Yin Xun a few days ago, and now she was caught red-handed. She did not know what would happen this time. She was so nervous that her forehead began to sweat slightly.


    Seeing that there was tea on the coffee table in front of her, Yin Mo poured herself a cup to calm her nerves. When she drank it, she realized that the tea was cold. Only then did she remember that Yin Cheng had been watching her at home recently and had not come to the company at all. How could there be fresh tea here?


    It must have been a few days old. She did not expect the assistant to not throw it away yet. If she drank it, she would definitely have a stomach ache. Yin Mo quickly spat the tea out..

    Coincidentally, Yin Xun walked in at this moment. She saw Yin Mo throwing something into the trash can and saw the teacup in front of Yin Mo. She raised her eyebrows and said, ¡°What¡¯s this? Didn¡¯t you say that you¡¯re pregnant? Should you be drinking tea when you¡¯re pregnant?¡±


    Yin Mo did not answer her. Her expression was a little ugly as she looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you wanted to see me? Now that you¡¯ve seen me, tell me what you want.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not that I¡¯m looking for you, but Dad. Just wait, he¡¯ll be here soon.¡± Yin Xun walked to the seat furthest away from Yin Mo and sat down. She had already said what she needed to say. Since she knew what Yin Mo was thinking, there was no need to speak anymore.


    Everything could wait until Yin Cheng arrived. She could not be bothered to waste her energy on this idiot.


    ¡°I¡¯m not afraid even if Daddy comes!¡± Yin Mo turned her face away indignantly.


    Now that Yin Xun was here, even if the office door was open, Yin Mo did not dare to run away. She felt afraid and could only sit here and wait.


    Soon, Yin Cheng arrived.


    He looked at Yin Mo, who was sitting in the office, and his expression instantly darkened. He glared at Yin Mo angrily. ¡°You ran away from home with all your might just to come to my office? Tell me, what misdeed do you want to do this time?¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Yin Cheng with bloodshot eyes and said, ¡°Dad, I didn¡¯t do anything. I just wanted to come and take a look. I know I was in the wrong in the past. As your daughter, I couldn¡¯t help you share your burden and only let Big Sister help you. I know my mistake now. I want to return to the company to work. I was afraid that you wouldn¡¯t let me, so I came back to visit¡­¡±


    ¡°Heh, you¡¯re really shameless.¡± Yin Xun could not stand Yin Mo¡¯s nonsense anymore and interrupted her with a sneer.


    ¡°Sister, what do you mean?¡± After being interrupted, Yin Mo turned to look at Yin Xun with an aggrieved expression.


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°You¡¯ve said so many things, but I only have one question for you. Dad has already announced at the company that you can¡¯t enter. The security guards at the door all know you, and you don¡¯t have an access card. How did you avoid the security guards and get in?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m¡­¡± This question hit the nail on the head. Before this, Yin Mo had thought of several excuses to come to the company, but she forgot about how to explain her entry. She was speechless for a moment and could not come up with an explanation for a long time.


    When Yin Cheng saw Yin Mo¡¯s expression, he immediately knew that she was up to no good again. His expression darkened even more as he asked in a low voice, ¡°Tell me, why did you come here? Don¡¯t try to fool us. Your sister and I are not fools.¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s face stiffened, and she was at a loss for what to do.


    Seeing that she could not fool him anymore, she could only tell him the truth. ¡°Dad, I did all of this to help you!¡±


    ¡°Not again.¡± Yin Xun rolled her eyes and complained in a low voice.


    After that, Yin Mo told Yin Cheng that she had gotten her hands on the Wang family project, but she did not mention Si Fan¡¯s involvement.


    Si Fan said that he had done this to regain Yin Mo¡¯s position in Yin Cheng¡¯s heart. In order for the two of them to get married successfully with the blessings of the family in the future, Yin Mo had to say that she had negotiated it herself.


    Previously, her father had misunderstood her too many times. This time, she had to change his opinion.


    Although Yin Mo was nervous, she was also looking forward to it. She thought that her father would definitely apologize to her after hearing the explanation and even change his opinion of her. Perhaps he would also hand over some of the company¡¯s matters to her in the future.


    After hearing her explanation, Yin Cheng did not look at ease. Instead, he looked at her worriedly and asked, ¡°You won the Wang family¡¯s project? I never heard about the Wang family bidding for any projects recently. Show me the contract. You must have brought it with you, right?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I spent a lot of effort to get this project. It was all to give you a surprise. You can¡¯t look at it yet. You can look at it after I succeed, okay?¡± Yin Mo did not want to show the contract to Yin Cheng.


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°Are you afraid that Dad will notice something wrong with the contract, or do you really want to give him a surprise? Don¡¯t tell me the surprise will turn into something traumatizing in the end?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s face instantly turned red. It was hard to tell if she was furious or was exposed. She complained to Yin Cheng aggrievedly, ¡°Father, look at Sister. Why is she always making things hard for me?! Is it really as Fan said? Is Sister worried that I will make a name for myself in front of you and get an important position?¡±


    ¡°If there¡¯s nothing wrong, why can¡¯t you show it to Dad?¡± Yin Xun snorted coldly. ¡°Most importantly, if we really want to cooperate with the Wang family, the contract will have to be stamped.. Don¡¯t tell me your purpose for coming here is to secretly stamp the contract?¡±

 Chapter 413 - Chapter 413: Loan Shark

    Chapter 413: Loan Shark


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Mo stopped talking. Seeing her like this, Yin Cheng knew that Yin Xun had hit the nail on the head. His face turned darker and darker.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, show me the contract. If it¡¯s really a good project, I¡¯ll apologize to you and tell your sister to apologize too. But if it¡¯s a problematic project, we¡¯ll stop it right here.¡±


    Since she had already said so much, Yin Mo had no choice but to hand the contract over.


    She looked at Yin Cheng, then at Yin Xun. In the end, she reluctantly took out the contract from her clothes.


    Yin Cheng took the contract and lowered his head to read it. Before he could take more than a few glances, he was instantly shocked. He showed the contract to Yin Xun and said to Yin Mo, ¡°Mo¡¯er, did you actually read this contract?¡±


    Yin Mo was not sure either, but when she thought there would be no problems with it since it was given to her by Si Fan. She nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯ve seen it. This is a good project. There are many companies fighting for it. It wasn¡¯t easy for me to win. How is it, Dad? Do you think I¡¯m capable enough to help you manage the company?¡±


    Yin Cheng said angrily, ¡°Help me manage the company? If this company is handed over to you, it won¡¯t live past the next day!¡±


    ¡°Dad, is there a problem with this contract?¡± Yin Mo looked aggrieved after being snapped at by Yin Cheng.


    Yin Cheng was so upset that he almost lost his temper. He quickly patted his chest to calm himself down. He turned around and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Xun, tell me what¡¯s wrong with this contract.¡±


    ¡°Yin Mo, what you did this time is more than just outrageous. Listen carefully,¡± Yin Xun said calmly as she held the contract.


    ¡°The Wang family wants to build a commercial building in the East District. As long as this contract takes effect, the construction company will be responsible for all subsequent construction problems, including demolition.¡±


    ¡°Do you know that the area in question can¡¯t be demolished? That¡¯s a famous private property. The owners have connections with the government. According to the contract, there¡¯s no issue if we can start construction, but if we breach the contract, we will have to compensate a huge sum. At that time, our Yin family will suffer severe losses.¡±


    Yin Mo did not know the seriousness of the matter. ¡°But it¡¯s just a few households in that place. No matter how capable they are, can¡¯t it be resolved with more money? If it really doesn¡¯t work out, we can forcefully demolish the place. Sister, don¡¯t you have friends working in the government? Aren¡¯t your friends very powerful? Can¡¯t they help us?¡±


    Yin Xun glanced at her indifferently and did not answer the question. She said, ¡°Don¡¯t be impatient. I¡¯m not done yet. If I¡¯m not mistaken, Si Fan asked you to stamp twice, right?¡±


    Yin Mo did not know what Yin Xun meant and nodded blankly.


    ¡°It seems like you did not look at either of the documents. Do you know what the second contract is?¡± Yin Xun threw the contract in front of Yin Mo. ¡°The second contract is not a project contract, but a loan shark form!¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s pupils constricted and her face turned pale. She quickly picked up the contract in front of her. After reading it, her face turned even paler.


    ¡°This loan shark doesn¡¯t belong to a formal bank. It belongs to the black market. Therefore, as long as you take this stamped contract, it will be considered effective. The collateral is our Yin Corporation. If we can¡¯t pay up in the future, the company will be completely gone. The beneficiary of this contract is Si Fan. In other words, even if we don¡¯t have money, we have to help him repay his debt. If we can¡¯t pay it back, we will bear the final consequences ourselves.¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun in horror. He had only taken a look at the first contract and realized that there was a problem. He had passed it to Yin Xun directly. He did not look at the rest. It was actually something like this too!


    Aside from Yin Cheng, even Yin Xun was shocked. She knew that Si Fan would not give up on using Yin Mo to cause trouble, but she did not expect something so major. If Lin Zhu did not inform them in time, then something terrible would really have happened to the Yin family.


    ¡°Yin Mo.¡± Yin Xun looked at her coldly. ¡°Since you already know the severity of this matter, how do you plan to deal with it? Will you give up on Si Fan?¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Yin Mo opened his mouth, then lowered her head and stopped talking.


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Mo and said, ¡°Mo¡¯er, I¡¯ve already given you many chances, but not only did you not repent, but you¡¯ve also been helping Si Fan harm your family.. I¡¯ll ask you one last time, can you give up on Si Fan and cut ties with him?¡±

 Chapter 414 - Chapter 414: Yin Cheng Fainted

    Chapter 414: Yin Cheng Fainted


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Mo stood up and quickly walked to Yin Cheng. With tears in her eyes, she pleaded, ¡°Dad, I know I was wrong, but can you not blame Fan? He did this for my sake. He must have been deceived. Wait, I¡¯ll go back and tell him. Once he finds out, he will definitely take the initiative to apologize to you¡­¡±


    Even after all this, Yin Mo was still speaking up for Si Fan. It was obvious she loved him deeply.


    Yin Cheng looked at his good-for-nothing daughter and said bitterly, ¡°Mo¡¯er, you¡¯ve been manipulated by Si Fan time and time again. After you nearly made a huge mistake, aren¡¯t you going to wake up? If you insist that Si Fan is right and still want to be with him, I won¡¯t hold back anymore. A matter like this can only be resolved by the police.¡±


    ¡°Dad¡­¡± Yin Mo looked like she was in pain.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, I finally understand. Loving someone doesn¡¯t equate to pampering them. Pampering will only push you onto the path of crime. Before you cause a disaster, go to the police station and reflect on yourself,¡± Yin Cheng said as he took out his phone to call the police.


    Yin Mo saw that Yin Cheng was determined to send her to prison. Yin Mo, who usually never lost her temper, suddenly yelled, ¡°You¡¯re biased! You never object to anything Sister says. You support her unconditionally every time. Ever since Sister came back from overseas, you¡¯ve always hated me and refused to let me be with Fan. We¡¯ve tried so hard to prove ourselves in front of you, but you just can¡¯t see it!¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Mo in surprise when she yelled at him. He suddenly felt that the daughter in front of him felt like a stranger.


    Was that how she saw him? Yin Cheng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. He tried his best to endure the discomfort in his body and stared at Yin Mo. He looked at how his little daughter, whom he had doted on since she was young, repeatedly blamed him.


    ¡°You and Mom are both biased. You always like to pick on Fan. He sincerely loves me. Everything he does is for me. He wants to marry me and get Mom¡¯s and your blessings. That¡¯s why he did all this. But not only did you misunderstand, but you even blamed him. I think you don¡¯t want me as your daughter anymore!¡±


    The more Yin Mo spoke, the more she went overboard. She wiped her tears fiercely and said firmly, ¡°Alright, haven¡¯t you always wanted to send me to jail? Then call the police. I did everything myself. It has nothing to do with Si Fan. I¡¯m responsible for my actions and I¡¯ll go to jail. How is it? Are you happy now that your daughter is in jail? You can rest easy knowing that you¡¯ll have one less daughter to take the family assets in the future.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Mo scratched her head and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Sister, this has always been what you wanted, right? How is it? Are you happy now?¡±


    Thud-


    Before Yin Xun could speak, she heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground. She looked up at the source of the sound and her eyes widened. Yin Cheng had fainted!


    ¡°Dad!¡± Yin Xun rushed over anxiously to check on Yin Cheng¡¯s condition. Yin Mo was also shocked. She squatted down and tried to touch Yin Cheng, but Yin Xun pushed her away.


    ¡°Don¡¯t move!¡± Yin Xun saw that Yin Cheng¡¯s lips were turning purple and immediately knew that it was an issue with his heart. Without hesitation, she took out her phone and called an ambulance. At the same time, he pondered what she should do.


    When Yin Mo heard Yin Xun scolding her, she thought that she was angry. She said aggrievedly, ¡°Sister, why did you push me? Dad fainted. We should help him to the sofa. The floor is cold.¡±


    ¡°Do you still care about Dad? He got angry because of you! Dad¡¯s condition isn¡¯t great now. Don¡¯t touch him. Let¡¯s wait for the doctor to come.¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng. The doctor said on the phone that the patient should undergo chest compressions in this situation. Yin Xun did not know about these things. If she acted rashly, she would only make a mistake.


    Yin Mo saw that Yin Xun was focused fully on Yin Cheng, so she slowly moved toward the door. She did not realize that while Yin Xun was observing Yin Cheng, she was also watching her from the corner of her eye.


    Seeing Yin Mo¡¯s actions, Yin Xun raised her head and looked at Yin Mo coldly. ¡°What? Dad has already fainted, and you still want to escape?¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t!¡± Yin Mo defended herself. ¡°I¡­ I just wanted to go out and see if the medical staff has arrived.¡±


    Despite her words, Yin Mo had no intention of going out. Instead, she walked back and squatted beside Yin Xun to look at their father.


    Yin Xun glanced at Yin Mo coldly and took out her phone to send a message to Lin Zhu, asking him to come upstairs and keep an eye on Yin Mo. She would see Yin Mo again after she settled matters here.


    As soon as she sent the message, Lin Zhu replied with an affirmative answer.


    They all used the Xintao app, which was very convenient for communication. The messages were received in seconds..

 Chapter 415 - Chapter 415: Kicked Out Of The House

    Chapter 415: Kicked Out Of The House


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Lin Zhu soon arrived. A trace of panic flashed across Yin Mo¡¯s face the moment she saw Lin Zhu.


    She looked in the direction of the door and began to move. However, she thought for a moment and squatted back down.


    The ambulance arrived swiftly. Not long after Lin Zhu entered, the medics carried a stretcher in.


    When Lin Zhu first saw Yin Xun¡¯s message, he had already notified the security guards at the entrance. With someone leading the way, the doctor was able to come upstairs unimpeded.


    Yin Xun left the building with the ambulance. Yin Mo wanted to follow, but she was stopped by Yin Xun. Yin Xun asked her to wait in the office. She would be back soon.


    When they arrived at the hospital, Yin Cheng was sent to the emergency room. Yin Xun looked at the flashing red light. She looked calm on the surface but was extremely anxious on the inside.


    After some thought, she took out her phone and called Wu Li, telling her everything that had happened.


    However, Yin Xun was afraid that something would happen to Wu Li if she got too anxious, so she only said that Yin Cheng was dizzy and went to the hospital for an injection. She would explain more of the details when she arrived.


    The red light in the emergency room kept flashing. Even when Wu Li arrived, Yin Cheng still did not come out of the emergency room.


    When she learned that Yin Cheng¡¯s life was in danger, Wu Li¡¯s legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Yin Xun reacted quickly and supported her in time.


    ¡°Mom, look here, Dad is already like this. You can¡¯t let anything happen to you too. You have to stay composed. When Dad comes out, please comfort him.¡± Yin Xun patted Wu Li¡¯s back gently to calm her down.


    Wu Li was already sobbing uncontrollably. When she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, she nodded. She lay on Yin Xun¡¯s shoulder like a child, her body trembling.


    Not long after, Yin Xun¡¯s shoulder was damp from her tears. Yin Xun¡¯s eyes were red too and she wanted to cry, but she kept it in. Now that she was Wu Li¡¯s support, she could not afford to panic.


    After crying for a long time, Wu Li asked, ¡°Your father was fine when he left. Why did he faint all of a sudden? What happened?¡±


    Wu Li was very emotional. She usually prioritized cleanliness and pride, but at this moment, she was crying so much that snot flowed down her face. However, she did not care at all. She kept holding Yin Xun¡¯s hand, wanting to know the reason.


    Yin Xun sighed softly. Initially, she wanted to wait for Wu Li to calm down or for Yin Cheng to come out of the emergency room. However, looking at Wu Li¡¯s current state, if she did not say anything, Wu Li did not seem like she would relent.


    She had no choice but to tell her what Yin Mo had done and how Yin Cheng had fainted from anger.


    However, she covered up some of Yin Mo¡¯s most outrageous words because she realized that Wu Li was also starting to breathe heavily from anger. If Wu Li also fainted, it would be completely over.


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, she thought that Wu Li would contact Yin Mo. Unexpectedly, Wu Li calmed herself down and said in a calm tone, ¡°Xun, tell Yin Mo that if she won¡¯t leave Si Fan one day, she should not return to the Yin house. I don¡¯t want to see her either. She chose the path herself. Whatever happens to her in the future, she had better not regret it.¡±


    Did this mean that she wanted to chase Yin Mo out of the house?


    To be honest, Yin Xun was very shocked by Wu Li¡¯s decision. In her heart, Wu Li had always been a kind mother. Her kindness knew no limits. No matter how many mistakes Yin Mo and Yin Rui made, she would never lose her temper.


    Back then, Yin Mo lied to Wu Li so many times and even threatened to kill herself. Wu Li never blamed her at all. She was just worried about her daughter¡¯s health.


    Now, she was planning to chase Yin Mo out of the house without even seeing her. It seemed like she was really heartbroken.


    Wu Li¡¯s gaze was fixed on the red light on the emergency room door. She took a deep breath and said weakly, ¡°It¡¯s okay if your father is fine. If anything happens to him, I don¡¯t want her as my daughter anymore. Just pretend that I never gave birth to her¡­¡±


    ¡°Mom, with your current state, are you okay with waiting here for Dad to come out?¡± Yin Xun suddenly asked Wu Li.


    Wu Li nodded. ¡°I¡¯ll be fine. If you have something to do, go ahead. I¡¯ll tell you when your father comes out. Don¡¯t worry, he is usually in good health. He¡¯ll be fine.¡±


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s expression, Wu Li vaguely knew what she was going to do.


    If not for the fact that Yin Cheng was still in danger, she would definitely want to follow her. However, she needed to stay here and wait for Yin Cheng, and she could only let Yin Xun go alone.


    Yin Xun sighed, but she was still worried. She stood up and walked to Wu Li. She squatted down and comforted her softly, ¡°Mom, I¡¯ll get Yin Rui to come and accompany you later. I¡¯ll come back once I¡¯m done with what I need to do.. Don¡¯t be anxious, okay?¡±

    Chapter 416: Sever Ties

    At the mention of Yin Rui, she realized that Yin Rui should be at home right now. Why did he not follow when Wu Li came? Could it be that Wu Li did not tell him?


    ¡°Your brother isn¡¯t at home now. He went to look for his friends.¡± Wu Li grabbed Yin Xun¡¯s hand and motioned for her not to call him.


    Seeing Wu Li nod, Yin Xun stood up and left. After entering the elevator, her gaze instantly darkened. The matter between her and Yin Mo could not be delayed any longer.


    At the hospital entrance, Yin Xun planned to call a taxi.


    There was a lot of traffic at the entrance. There were many cars and a lot of people were also taking taxis. The few taxis that came over already had customers. It seemed that she should develop an online taxi service for Xintao as soon as possible. She believed that this project was a big business opportunity.


    Yin Xun was standing by the roadside waiting for a taxi when she suddenly heard a commotion not far away. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a small forest about a hundred meters away from the hospital. It was surrounded by a circle of neatly trimmed trees that were half the height of a person.


    There were many people standing in the park. They were gathered together as if they were watching a show.


    A voice came from the crowd. It sounded vaguely familiar.


    Frowning slightly, Yin Xun planned to go over and take a look, but she had only taken two steps when an empty taxi came over. Still looking at the crowd, she raised her hand to signal the taxi to stop. Without thinking too much about it, she got into the car.


    The car started to move and the scenery on both sides began to recede rapidly. Yin Xun leaned her head gently against the window and looked at the rapidly changing view. An inexplicable sense of frustration rose in her heart.


    When she first read the novel, she knew that Yin Mo was a brainless fool, but she did not think that the real person was so stupid that she could not even understand the basics.


    Yin Mo was like a ticking time bomb. If Yin Xun did not get rid of her one day, she might do something irreversible. The incident today was a good example.


    Yin Xun frowned. Nevertheless, Yin Mo was the daughter that Yin Cheng had raised for many years. It was indeed difficult for him to send his daughter to prison.


    Putting aside Yin Mo, even a cat or a dog would develop feelings for someone they raised for so long. However, for the sake of future stability, it was better for Yin Xun to handle this herself.


    When she returned to the office, Yin Mo was sitting on the sofa and looking at her phone.


    Seeing that Yin Xun had returned, Yin Mo immediately got up and hurried over to her. She asked, ¡°Sister, how¡¯s Dad?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at her coldly and said blandly, ¡°Dad¡¯s condition has nothing to do with you. From now on, you¡¯re no longer a member of the Yin family. We¡¯ll sever ties with you from now on.¡±


    ¡°Sister¡­¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes widened in disbelief. She shook her head. ¡°Don¡¯t scare me. Daddy and Mommy love me. How can they discard me?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s expression made Yin Xun feel disgusted. She said coldly, ¡°Since you know that Dad and Mom love you, why did you still say those hurtful words? You angered him so much he was sent to the emergency room! Raising a dog would have been better than raising you.¡±


    ¡°Sister, I know you¡¯ve always hated me. Although I don¡¯t know the reason, I¡¯ll definitely change in the future. Please don¡¯t scare me, okay? I know my mistake. Oh right, isn¡¯t Dad unconscious? He definitely can¡¯t have said such things¡­¡±


    Yin Mo muttered to herself in a daze. She looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°I understand, Sister. All of this is part of your plan, right? No wonder you got someone to stop me and now you¡¯re chasing me out of the Yin family when Father fainted. With this, the Yin family¡¯s assets would be yours!¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s mouth spoke of nothing but the family assets. Yin Xun almost laughed out of anger. Things had already developed to this point, but not only did she not repent, she was still thinking about the Yin family¡¯s wealth. Was she really a kind little white flower?


    Yin Xun felt that Yin Mo¡¯s current personality seemed to be different from the character in the original novel.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°You¡¯re always talking about the family assets. Since you want the family assets so much, you should first show Dad what you can do. Do you think he will just hand the company to you and wait for it to go bankrupt?¡± ¡°How am I supposed to perform if none of you allow me to enter the company?¡± Yin Mo retorted. ¡°No, I¡¯m going to look for Dad and talk to him. He won¡¯t give up on me¡­¡±


    Yin Mo moved to the door with reddened eyes. As she walked, she said, ¡°I know which hospital Dad went to. I can find it myself.¡±


    ¡°Stop right there,¡± Yin Xun said coldly.


    Yin Mo stopped in her tracks and looked back at Yin Xun impatiently.. ¡°What else do you want?¡±

 Chapter 417 - Chapter 417: What Happened To Dai Ning?

    Chapter 417: What Happened To Dai Ning?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun turned around and confronted Yin Mo. The image of Yin Xun¡¯s hand was reflected in Yin Mo¡¯s eyes; it grew larger and larger before the hand landed heavily on Yin Mo¡¯s face.


    Smack!


    The sound was loud and crisp. When Lin Zhu saw this, he immediately turned around and pretended not to see it.


    ¡°Ah! You hit me again!¡± Yin Mo covered her face and looked angry.


    Seeing Yin Xun raise her palm again, Yin Mo quickly turned around and rushed out like the wind.


    She was fast, but Yin Xun was even faster.


    Before she could run more than three steps, Yin Xun caught up with Yin Mo and grabbed her hair. She pulled her back.


    Yin Mo tried to struggle, but her hair was in Yin Xun¡¯s grasp. It was so painful that her scalp felt like it was about to be torn off. Her eyes were filled with tears as she begged for mercy. ¡°Sister, I was wrong. I¡¯m not trying to run anymore. Let go of my hair¡­¡±


    Yin Xun ignored Yin Mo¡¯s pleas. She pulled Yin Mo back into the office and shoved her forcefully. Yin Mo fell to the ground.


    ¡°How dare you try to run? Yin Mo, I¡¯m telling you, you better pray that Dad will be fine, or I¡¯ll make you a cripple.¡± Yin Xun squatted down and grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s collar, forcing Yin Mo to look at her.


    These words were not meant to intimidate Yin Mo. They came from the bottom of her heart.


    Although she would not do anything too illegal, she would still cripple someone.


    Yin Mo was unconvinced. She asked Yin Xun, ¡°What right do you have to restrict my freedom?! Do you know that you¡¯re doing something illegal?!¡± She tried to push Yin Xun¡¯s hand away, but she realized that Yin Xun was stronger than she thought. Yin Mo could not push her away.


    ¡°Illegal?¡± Yin Xun suddenly laughed. She slapped Yin Mo again. ¡°I slapped you for Dad. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t love your parents, but how could you be so ungrateful? I slapped you for Mom too. She gave birth to you after nine months of hardship and spent a lot of effort to raise you, and this is how you repay her?¡±


    With another slap, Yin Xun said, ¡°This slap is for Yin Rui. You¡¯re not worthy of being his sister.¡±


    Thinking of Yin Rui¡¯s experience in the original novel, Yin Xun¡¯s heart ached.


    At this moment, half of Yin Mo¡¯s face was already swollen and red. On close inspection, some blood could be seen on it. Yin Mo was probably stunned by the beating. She did not struggle and actually endured it.


    Even though Lin Zhu¡¯s back was turned, his head was slightly tilted as he watched the situation from the corner of his eye. Every time Yin Xun hit him, he would instinctively shiver.


    He had always thought that Yin Xun was a gentle person. He did not expect her to be so terrifying when she lost her temper.


    In the midst of his shock, he saw Yin Xun raise her hand to hit Yin Mo again. Yin Xun said coldly, ¡°This slap for Dai Ning. She¡¯s so unlucky to have a best friend like you!¡±


    When she heard Dai Ning¡¯s name, Yin Mo, whose eyes were dull and lifeless, suddenly reacted. She looked at Yin Xun in surprise. ¡°You knew about Dai Ning? She¡¯s back already? That shouldn¡¯t be the case. The effect of the medicine shouldn¡¯t have worn out yet¡­¡±


    ¡°Dai Ning?¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Mo. She seemed to realize how Yin Mo got her employee card.


    She got drugged. Yin Mo actually drugged Dai Ning!


    ¡°Where is Dai Ning now?¡± Yin Xun sounded a little anxious.


    She knew that Yin Mo would not plan such a thing with her brain. Si Fan must have instructed her to do so from behind the scenes.


    Yin Mo would not take the initiative to hurt someone, but that did not mean that Si Fan would not. Si Fan had already set his sights on Mary. She could not let the same happen to Dai Ning.


    ¡°Huh, didn¡¯t you hit me because I drugged Dai Ning?¡± Yin Mo said slowly, as though this matter had nothing to do with her.


    Yin Xun did not want to waste her breath on Yin Mo. At this moment, she only wanted to find Dai Ning. In her anxiety, she tightened her grip.


    She grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s hair and pulled her back, making Yin Mo look upward. Yin Xun gritted her teeth and said, ¡°I¡¯ll give you one last chance. Where is Dai Ning now? Yin Mo, Dai Ning has always treated you as her best friend. Can you really bear to see her get hurt?¡±


    Yin Mo¡¯s face and scalp were in agony. She grimaced in pain and reached out to grab Yin Xun¡¯s hand. ¡°Sister, don¡¯t worry. Dai Ning is my good friend. How could I hurt her? I just put her to sleep. She¡¯s in the private room downstairs. It¡¯s all very safe. Nothing will happen. When the drug wears off, she¡¯ll wake up and come back.¡±


    After receiving the news about Dai Ning, Yin Xun turned to Lin Zhu and said, ¡°Lin Zhu, bring some people to Shuyue Cafe to look for Dai Ning and bring her back.¡±


    ¡°Yes, President Yin.¡± Lin Zhu answered and immediately left..

    Yin Mo¡¯s hair was pulled by Yin Xun, and she was in so much pain that tears kept rolling down her face. She kept struggling, and finally, after Lin Zhu left, Yin Xun let go of her.


    ¡°You¡¯ve already hit me and vented your anger. There¡¯s nothing else you need me for now, right? I¡¯m leaving.¡± Yin Mo stood up from the ground with a swollen face and walked toward the door.


    However, to her surprise, Yin Xun had no intention of letting her go.


    ¡°You still want to leave after committing such a serious crime? How thick-skinned are you?¡± Yin Xun grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s wrist and refused to let her leave.


    ¡°You pretended to be an employee of the company and tried to sign an illegal contract. You angered Dad so much that he was hospitalized. You drugged Dai Ning and stole her employee card. You did so many things. Do you still want to pretend that nothing happened? Just go to jail obediently.¡± As she spoke, Yin Xun took out her phone and called the police.


    Yin Mo originally wanted to beg for mercy, but when she saw that Yin Xun refused to listen and was already calling the police, she gave up.


    When the police arrived, Lin Zhu called. Yin Xun glanced at Yin Mo coldly before picking up the call.


    ¡°President Yin, something has happened to Dai Ning. Please come over.¡± Lin Zhu¡¯s voice was filled with pain.


    Yin Xun¡¯s heart skipped a beat. The ending for Dai Ning in the original work suddenly appeared in her mind. However, when she thought about it, something was wrong.


    According to the original plot, it was not the time for Dai Ning to get hurt yet. Moreover, Dai Ning got hurt because she wanted to save Yin Mo. If something happened to her now, how would that make sense?


    Yin Xun asked Lin Zhu about Dai Ning¡¯s situation, but Lin Zhu did not say anything. He only said that it was inconvenient to talk over the phone and that she would know after the matter was settled.


    Although Yin Xun was anxious, in order to make sure Yin Mo was sent to prison, she decided to wait until she was done with Yin Mo.


    The police arrived very quickly and collected evidence at the scene before taking Yin Mo away.


    Looking at Yin Mo¡¯s back, Yin Xun was suddenly in a daze. She did not expect that she would really send Yin Mo to prison. This was the female protagonist of the original novel; she had the halo of a protagonist.


    When she thought of the protagonist¡¯s halo, Yin Xun realized that she might not be able to trap Yin Mo permanently. If she guessed correctly, Yin Mo would find an opportunity to get out of prison.


    However, as long as Yin Mo failed her latest mission and lost the backing of the Yin family, she would not have much of a future.


    The reason Si Fan treated her so well was because of the Yin family. Yin Mo was useless now and would definitely be kicked away by Si Fan.


    Yin Xun planned to tell Wu Li and Yin Cheng about Yin Mo¡¯s arrest later. Wu Li was already in a lot of pain right now. Yin Xun could not let anything else happen.


    Yin Xun took out her phone and planned to call Wu Li to ask about Yin Cheng¡¯s situation. Just as she took it out, Wu Li¡¯s call arrived.


    Yin Xun picked up almost instantly. The moment the call connected, she heard Wu Li¡¯s excited voice. ¡°Xun, your father is out. The doctor said that he¡¯ll be fine. He just needs to rest quietly!¡±


    Hearing that Yin Cheng was fine, Yin Xun was finally relieved.


    Since Yin Cheng was alright, Yin Xun finally told Wu Li about Yin Mo. She explained everything, from the moment Yin Mo got someone to cause trouble at the construction site to when she stole the official seal and drugged Dai Ning.


    Wu Li fell silent and did not reply for a moment. Yin Xun thought that perhaps Wu Li could not bear to hear this.


    However, no matter how Wu Li reacted, Yin Xun did not regret sending Yin Mo to prison. This kind of person was a cancer in society. If she did not take care of Yin Mo, the Yin family would be destroyed at her hands sooner or later.


    Both sides were silent. After a while, Wu Li sighed and said, ¡°I always thought that Mo¡¯er just could not think for herself, but she¡¯s very kind and wouldn¡¯t do anything to hurt others. I didn¡¯t expect her to be so extreme. She helped Si Fan attack her own family and even caused your father to almost¡­¡±


    Yin Xun knew what Wu Li wanted to say, but the sentence was left unfinished.


    Wu Li continued after a pause, ¡°In the future, I¡¯ll pretend that I don¡¯t have this daughter. From now on, our Yin family will only have you and Yin Rui. You can do whatever you want to do. No matter what your plans are, Mom will support you. I know that you¡¯re a sensible child and you¡¯ll never make us worry. It¡¯s the same this time. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. You don¡¯t have to tell your father about this. When the time is right, I will tell him.¡± ¡°Alright, Mom. Call me if there¡¯s anything.¡± Yin Xun hung up after speaking to Wu Li..

 Chapter 419 - Chapter 419: Its A Drug

    Chapter 419: It¡¯s A Drug


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Now that Yin Mo¡¯s matter had been resolved, it was time to visit Dai Ning.


    Yin Xun arrived at the staff lounge downstairs and saw Dai Ning lying on the bed. Dai Ning¡¯s face appeared calm and it looked as if she had fallen asleep. There was nothing unusual about her. However, Lin Zhu stood beside her and looked quite anxious.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Xun walked over and asked.


    Lin Zhu¡¯s attention was on Dai Ning a moment ago. When he heard Yin Xun¡¯s voice, he came back to his senses. He turned around and looked at Yin Xun, saying, ¡°President Yin, when I found Dai Ning, she was lying on the table in the coffee shop. On the surface, everything looked normal, but I saw this next to her¡­¡±


    Lin Zhu took out a syringe from his pocket and handed it to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun took it and examined it. She could not see anything unusual about this syringe. ¡°Is there a problem with this?¡±


    ¡°This syringe contains a drug. In other words, someone injected this into her while she was sleeping,¡± Lin Zhu said worriedly.


    ¡°A drug? Are you sure about that?¡± Yin Xun asked in a deep voice.


    If it was really a drug, then the situation would be even worse. However, the original novel never mentioned that Dai Ning had taken drugs. The person who had taken drugs should be Yin Rui.


    Could it be that because she protected Yin Rui, Yin Rui was saved from this fate, but the tragedy was transferred to another character? It was like the so-called law of conservation. Something that was removed would have to appear elsewhere. This hypothesis was not impossible.


    If that was the case, it was terrible. Since the incident was fated to happen, it meant that no matter how hard she tried to change the ending of the story, she could not protect those people from getting destroyed. The only thing that changed would be how it happened.


    After Yin Cheng fainted from anger and Dai Ning was forcefully drugged, what else could happen?


    Yin Xun was at a loss for a moment. She did not know if everything she did even meant anything.


    However, this feeling only lasted for a moment before she quickly dispelled it.


    Since the higher forces had given her the chance to transmigrate into this book, from her point of view, she was the protagonist now. There had to be a way to change everything.


    Before Lin Zhu could answer, countless thoughts flashed through Yin Xun¡¯s mind.


    ¡°The smell should be correct, but to be safe, I think we should send this to be appraised. However, it¡¯s illegal to take drugs in this country. If this is really a drug, then even if Dai Ning was forced to take it, she would be punished for it, right?¡± Lin Zhu was a little worried. Taking drugs was not a small matter.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°Whatever the case, we still have to appraise it. If we confirm it is a drug, we should be able to prevent Dai Ning from addiction since she doesn¡¯t have much contact with it. If we leave her alone, Dai Ning will definitely suffer.¡±


    She did not know what kind of medicine Yin Mo had given Dai Ning. She had still not woken up after being carried back by someone else ages ago.


    For safety reasons, Yin Xun sent Dai Ning to the hospital. Dai Ning only woke up when the results of her checkup were out.


    When she opened her eyes and realized that she was in the hospital, she was stunned.


    ¡°President Yin? Isn¡¯t this a hospital? Why am I here?¡± Dai Ning was lying on the hospital bed at this moment. She was still on an IV drip, and there was medical equipment flashing in front of the bed.


    Yin Xun sat beside Dai Ning and tended to her personally.


    Hearing Dai Ning¡¯s question, Yin Xun told her the truth, including the fact that she had been injected with drugs in her sleep.


    Yin Xun thought that Dai Ning would be dejected, and she was still thinking about how best to comfort her. After all, although she no longer recognized Yin Mo as her sister, in the eyes of outsiders, Yin Mo was still a member of the Yin family. Dai Ning had suffered because of her, and it was inevitably related to her.


    However, to her surprise, Dai Ning only looked disappointed for a moment before her expression immediately returned to normal.


    She sighed and said, ¡°I¡¯ve only seen drugs being used on television. I didn¡¯t expect to become a recipient one day. But I heard that people often died from taking drugs. Why don¡¯t I feel anything?¡±


    Dai Ning¡¯s focus was rather unusual. Yin Xun did not know whether to laugh or cry. ¡°At that time, you were just unconscious, so you don¡¯t feel anything. Si Fan got someone to buy that knockout drug from a black market overseas. The effect was very strong, so you were unconscious for a long time. How is it? Do you feel uncomfortable now?¡±


    ¡°I feel weak all over, a little nauseous, and my head feels like it¡¯s about to explode.¡± Dai Ning¡¯s face was pale and her words were weak..

 Chapter 420 - Chapter 420: Repaying

    Chapter 420: Repaying


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That is the aftereffect of drug use, but don¡¯t worry, the symptoms will subside very quickly. Also, this is your first time taking it. The doctor said that the addiction symptoms will be very small and should be gone in three to four days. During this period, take care of your body and eat more fruits.


    ¡°I¡¯ve already reported the incident to the police. The police will investigate this matter. There are surveillance cameras in the coffee shop. The person who harmed you should be easily identified. For the next two days, please cooperate with the doctor in the hospital for a checkup. You don¡¯t have to worry about work for now. Also¡­¡±


    Looking at Dai Ning¡¯s weak appearance, Yin Xun did not finish her sentence.


    She wanted to remind Dai Ning to stay away from Yin Mo, both for the company¡¯s sake and for herself. However, Dai Ning¡¯s current condition was really not great. She thought that she should wait for Dai Ning to recover before telling her.


    If Dai Ning had a brain, she would never get close to Yin Mo again. If she did not learn her lesson like Yin Mo, then Yin Xun would not care about her anymore.


    ¡°President Yin, I¡¯m sorry.¡± Dai Ning suddenly apologized, and her face was filled with self-blame.


    Yin Xun looked at her and raised an eyebrow.


    Dai Ning said, ¡°When Yin Mo came to look for me, I thought she was in trouble and needed my help. I didn¡¯t think she would knock me out and steal my card in order to enter the company. She almost caused such huge trouble. She wasn¡¯t like this in the past. She was very gentle and kind. How could she do such a thing? She even got the chairman so angry that he was hospitalized.¡±


    Dai Ning sighed and continued, ¡°President Yin, I feel that we might no longer be best friends in the future. Yin Mo has changed too much. It¡¯s as if I don¡¯t know her anymore. President Yin, will you blame me for that?¡±


    She treated Yin Mo like a sister. When Dai Ning heard that she was in trouble, she did her best to help her regardless of whether or not it was within her capability. However, she did not expect Yin Mo to do this to her in return.


    If she could drug her this time, what would happen next time? If Yin Mo needed her again, would she sell her out? Dai Ning had always treated Yin Mo as her best friend. Now that she had been betrayed, her heart hurt even more than her head.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. She betrayed you first. Of course, you have the right to make your own choice. Besides, you¡¯re a good person. Losing you as a friend is her loss. You don¡¯t have to blame yourself. The company didn¡¯t suffer any losses. As long as you don¡¯t help her again in the future, it¡¯s fine.¡± Yin Xun smiled and comforted her.


    ¡°Okay, I won¡¯t.¡± Dai Ning lowered her eyes and said softly.


    Fortunately, if someone only took drugs once, it would not be addictive. As long as they had the resolution to quit, it should be easy.


    Yin Xun did not allow Dai Ning to leave the hospital because she was afraid that Dai Ning would be targeted again. If she took this kind of drug a few more times, it would be very difficult to quit. In the hospital, Dai Ning had a caregiver who was around 24 hours a day. Even if Dai Ning wanted to do something, she would be a little wary.


    Yin Xun gave Dai Ning a few more instructions, telling her to recuperate in the hospital. After that, she got up and left. She still had many things to deal with. Now, it was time to save Mark.


    ¡°President Yin, why can¡¯t I go back to work?¡± Dai Ning suddenly called out to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun stopped and looked back at Dai Ning in confusion.


    Dai Ning¡¯s face suddenly turned red after seeing Yin Xun stare at her. She lowered her head slightly and said embarrassedly, ¡°Um, I can¡¯t afford the medical fees now¡­¡±


    So, that was the reason. Yin Xun smiled and comforted her. ¡°Considered this a work injury. The company will reimburse you. Also, you¡¯ll still be paid during the few days you¡¯re hospitalized, so don¡¯t worry. Take good care of your body. When you¡¯re better, you can return to the company. I¡¯ll personally teach you how to manage things there.¡±


    Dai Ning did not expect to receive this answer. She suddenly lifted her head up to look at Yin Xun. However, her sudden movement made her head hurt so much that she almost fainted again. She raised her other hand to nurse her head and thanked Yin Xun gratefully. ¡°Thank you, President Yin! You are so nice to me. How can I thank you¡­¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no need to thank me. I don¡¯t need verbal thanks. It¡¯s better to repay me with something practical. When you get a substitute company in the future, make sure to give me more cooperation projects. I believe it won¡¯t take long for me to get a return on investment from you,¡± Yin Xun said as she looked at her.


    Dai Ning:¡±¡­¡±


    ¡¯President Yin, do you have to be so blunt? Shouldn¡¯t a normal person say that it¡¯s alright and feel touched? Is it alright to talk about projects before even getting the management rights of a company?¡¯


    However, Dai Ning was not stupid. She also knew that Yin Xun said this so that she would not feel burdened.


    ¡°President Yin, don¡¯t worry. I will remember your help.¡± Dai Ning¡¯s eyes were red as she said emotionally.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Alright, go and rest.¡±


    After giving Dai Ning a deep look, Yin Xun left.


    After leaving the hospital, Yin Xun did not return to Yin Corporation. Instead, she took a taxi to Xintao..

 Chapter 421 - Chapter 421: The Chance Has Come

    Chapter 421: The Chance Has Come


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun called Mary to her office and told her about Yin Mo. Mary was very surprised when she heard this. She did not expect Yin Mo to do something like that for Si Fan. She did not even care about her family.


    ¡°Si Fan is despicable. He¡¯s willing to do anything for his own benefit. He¡¯s clearly using Second Miss¡¯ love for him to get whatever he wants.¡± Mary had been blaming Yin Mo in her heart because it was her fault that Mark got captured. However, that did not stop her from cursing Si Fan as well.


    Yin Xun reminded her, ¡°She¡¯s no longer a child of the Yin family. In the future, our Yin family will have nothing to do with Yin Mo. Also, Yin Mo does not deserve sympathy. She actually knows everything, but she just doesn¡¯t admit it.¡±


    Mary nodded, indicating that she understood.


    A person like Yin Mo was indeed not worthy of being Yin Xun¡¯s sister.


    She had such a good family background, yet she did not cherish it. She even hurt her own family for a man. If she were Yin Mo, she definitely would not betray Yin Xun for some man.


    Mary sighed in her heart. Comparing it to her family environment, Mary felt disappointed. She really envied Yin Mo for having such a nice sister like Yin Xun. If she was given a chance to choose, she would give up everything to become Yin Xun¡¯s sister.


    However, she could only dream about it.


    ¡°I think there¡¯s something wrong with the Si family,¡± Yin Xun said.


    She turned on her computer and opened the webpage to search for information about the Si family. The webpage was filled with positive introductions of Si Fan, portraying him as a young and promising person with an outstanding character.


    However, there was no detailed introduction of Si Fan¡¯s adoptive parents and sister. It was just a simple sentence.


    No matter how much Yin Xun searched, she could not find any news related to the Si family. There was only a small website with some brief introductions, but because the webpage was not secure, Yin Xun kept receiving small advertisements while reading it. The refresh rate was especially slow, so she could not even read through the whole thing


    She thought that when she had the time, she would ask Mi Jin to help fix this situation.


    However, even though she had not finished reading the information, she already knew that the truth was not like what was written.


    In the past, the Si family also had a large company and was ranked among the top few in the country. Being the owners of such a company, there should be detailed information about them on the Internet, including their personal background and history.


    Even Yin Cheng, who usually did not interact with the media, had information about him on the Internet. There were no parents listed in the Si family, and there was not even a cause of death for them. There could be only one possibility. Si Fan must have done something.


    There was very little information about his adoptive parents on the internet, and no one would talk about them in real life, except for Si Xia.


    Yin Xun did not finish reading the original novel back then, but from what she read, she knew what Si Fan¡¯s personality was like.


    He was ruthless. He would even abandon his own child. He would not let go of anyone who could be used, including his family.


    When his adoptive parents took him in, Si Fan had already started to think by himself. With his personality, he would not really care about adoptive parents who took him in halfway. Everything he did was for revenge.


    Moreover, Wu Li mentioned that the Si parents had died very suddenly and many things had not been dealt with in a timely fashion. Back then, the entire Si Corporation was in chaos and almost went bankrupt. In the end, it was Si Fan who resolved it.


    It was also from then on that Si Xia¡¯s health deteriorated. Some people said that Si Xia became like this because her mental state deteriorated after her parents died. It was all thanks to Si Fan¡¯s care that she was able to survive.


    There was another suspicious point. At that time, a huge matter had happened to the company, and even the shareholders could not resolve it. How could Si Fan, who was so young and inexperienced, solve it all by himself? It was as if everything had been prepared in advance.


    The deaths of Si Xia¡¯s parents were strange. Yin Xun suspected that it was Si Fan¡¯s doing. Perhaps he was so nice to Si Xia now because Si Xia had some dirt on him, or she had some benefits to offer. If Si Xia died or something happened to her, Si Fan would suffer losses.


    In other words, Si Xia was Si Fan¡¯s weakness. If she looked for Si Xia, this matter could be resolved.


    Yin Xun lowered her gaze. After everything at work was settled, she had to investigate Si Fan¡¯s past.


    ¡°Our chance has come. We can save your brother now.¡± Yin Xun said.


    Recently, she had been sending people to monitor Si Xia. Si Xia¡¯s health was getting better now, and the doctor said that she could be discharged..

 Chapter 422 - Chapter 422: Looking For Si Xia

    Chapter 422: Looking For Si Xia


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Xia had always regarded Yin Mo as a thorn in her side and wanted nothing more than to get rid of her.


    Now that she was discharged from the hospital, she would definitely pick a fight with Yin Mo as soon as possible. If Mary took this opportunity to make a deal with Si Xia-


    Mary was shocked. She said, ¡°Right now? President Yin, what do you have in mind? Si Fan won¡¯t let my younger brother go that easily, right? He still thinks I¡¯m useful to him.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. If he won¡¯t release Mark, we¡¯ll find someone else to release him.¡±


    In response to Mary¡¯s puzzled gaze, Yin Xun slowly explained her plan. ¡°Si Fan has a sister called Si Xia. She has been hospitalized because of her poor health. Si Fan is only intimidated by her. If it¡¯s her request, Si Fan will most likely fulfill it. You can go look for her. As long as she helps, you will be able to save your brother.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Mary frowned. ¡°Since she¡¯s Si Fan¡¯s sister, she must be on Si Fan¡¯s side. Why would she help me?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. Just follow what I told you¡­¡± Yin Xun signaled Mary to come over to her side and told Mary the plan in a whisper.


    ¡°Yes, I understand.¡± Mary nodded. After she heard Yin Xun¡¯s plan, her expression changed from blank to excited. She was full of admiration as she said, ¡°President Yin, you are a worthy president. No¡ªwith your brains, it¡¯s a waste to just be a president. If it was in ancient times, you would have been a military advisor.¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±?¡±


    Was that all it took to be a president? Although she knew Mary was praising her, Yin Xun somehow felt that the words were strange, as if she was mocking her.


    However, seeing Mary still have the energy to joke made Yin Xun feel a little comforted.


    Mary did not know what Yin Xun was thinking. Now that she had a way to save her brother, she could not stay still any longer. After saying goodbye to Yin Xun, she quickly left the office.


    She was worried that Si Fan would send someone to follow her, so before leaving the company building, she disguised herself as a cleaner.


    She already had experience with this in the past, so this time, she looked very close to the real thing in her disguise. Even her close friends did not recognize her. They walked past her without even looking at her.


    It was a great success. Mary felt relieved and walked out of the office pompously. Then, she hailed a taxi and rushed to Si Xia¡¯s hospital.


    Before she made the journey, Yin Xun had already told her about Si Xia¡¯s ward. Mary did not hesitate and went straight to Si Xia¡¯s ward.


    The door was closed, and Mary drew herself up on her toes, trying to see what was happening through the glass in the door. Unfortunately, there was a curtain on the inside, so she could not see anything.


    Mary knocked on the door. She had no choice but to meet Si Xia directly.


    To be honest, she was getting a little nervous now. She heard that because Si Xia was sick all year round, she had a bad temper and would even hit people.


    She was not afraid of being beaten up, but she was worried that if she failed to have a good conversation with Si Xia, it would cause her to be angry and complain to Si Fan. It would be horrible if the plan backfired.


    ¡°Come in,¡± someone inside said. It must be Si Xia.


    Mary took a deep breath and patted her cheeks, trying to relax.


    Earlier, Yin Xun had specially instructed her not to show any fear when negotiating. Otherwise, she would be at their mercy. Even if she was the weaker party, she had to remain calm and never let the other side see that she was nervous.


    After composing herself, Mary pushed open the door and walked in.


    There was only one woman in a hospital gown in the ward. It seemed like this was Si Xia.


    The Si Xia that Yin Xun described was a lunatic. Mary stood at the door and did not rush in. Instead, she looked at Si Xia.


    Perhaps it was because she was sick, but Si Xia looked exceptionally thin, like a skeleton wearing a full set of clothes. However, her long hair was like an elegant waterfall that casually draped over her back.


    At this moment, she was sitting on a chair in front of the window with her back to the sun. There was a book on her knees and she was facing Mary. When the sun shone over her, her body seemed to be glowing slightly. Mary could not see her face clearly, but she felt that the scene was inexplicably beautiful.


    ¡°Are you new here? Why are you wearing clothes like that? Next time, before you come to my room to clean, remember to change your clothes. Your clothes are filthy and ugly; you¡¯re ruining my mood.¡± Si Xia¡¯s tone was full of unconcealed disdain..

 Chapter 423 - Chapter 423: Despise The Yin Family

    Chapter 423: Despise The Yin Family


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Filthy? Mary looked down at the clothes she was wearing. In order not to let Si Fan¡¯s people notice her, she had come in janitor¡¯s clothes.


    In addition, the cleaning lady wore these same clothes, but she washed them so thoroughly that Mary could smell the fragrance of lavender detergent on them.


    She could understand them being ugly, but it was too unreasonable to say that it was filthy. Mary looked up. The beautiful scene she imagined now looked rather jarring.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Miss Si Xia. I¡¯m not here to clean. I have something to discuss with you,¡± Mary said as she closed and locked the door.


    ¡°Who are you? Why are you looking for me?¡± Si Xia asked cautiously when he saw Mary close the door. At the same time, she slowly moved toward the bed. There was a beeper by the bed. As long as she pressed it, doctors and nurses would immediately come over.


    Mary had been an assistant for many years and was good at reading people¡¯s expressions. She immediately saw through Si Xia¡¯s thoughts and quickly stopped her. ¡°You should know Yin Xun, right? I¡¯m Yin Xun¡¯s assistant; I¡¯m not a bad person. You don¡¯t have to be so nervous. I¡¯m only here today to discuss a deal with you.¡±


    ¡°Yin Xun? Isn¡¯t she the sister of the b*tch Yin Mo? You¡¯re her assistant? Is she looking for me?¡± When Mary revealed her identity, Si Xia secretly heaved a sigh of relief and sat on the bed.


    Mary shook her head. ¡°No, I have something else I need. I know that you hate Yin Mo more than anyone. I¡¯m here today to discuss a deal with you regarding her. Help me look for someone, and I¡¯ll help you chase Yin Mo away from Si Fan. How about that?¡±


    Yin Xun told her that although Si Xia was Si Fan¡¯s sister in name, she had always had her own opinions. Si Xia liked Si Fan, but Si Fan insisted on being with Yin Mo. Even if he had a motive for having Yin Mo around, Si Xia would not accept it. She always made things difficult for Yin Mo and tried repeatedly to separate her from Si Fan.


    It was a pity that Yin Mo was useful to Si Fan. He could promise Si Xia anything except when it was related to Yin Mo. Seeing that Si Fan valued Yin Mo so much, Si Xia¡¯s hatred for Yin Mo only deepened.


    Understanding that Si Xia only cared about Si Fan, Mary went straight to the point.


    Si Xia did not believe Mary¡¯s words. She snorted coldly and said, ¡°You¡¯re going to help me get rid of Yin Mo? What a joke. Aren¡¯t you Yin Xun¡¯s assistant? Why would she sell out her sister? I still remember how Yin Xun injured my brother and sent him to prison. Don¡¯t think that I only hate Yin Mo. I hate Yin Xun too.¡± Yin Xun injured Si Fan? Mary seemed to have discovered an incredible secret. She had never heard Yin Xun mention this. She did not expect Yin Xun to be so ferocious. Her impression of Yin Xun improved again.


    However, she did not show it.


    ¡°Miss Si Xia, my visit today has nothing to do with Yin Xun. To tell you the truth, I also hate the Yin sisters like you,¡± Mary said through gritted teeth.


    Si Xia¡¯s interest was piqued when he heard that. She looked at Mary curiously and said, ¡°Oh, that¡¯s interesting. You¡¯re Yin Xun¡¯s assistant, but you hate her. Why don¡¯t you tell me more?¡±


    ¡°Do you mind if I sit down and talk?¡± Mary asked Si Xia and pointed at a chair.


    Si Xia¡¯s expression was strange. She was silent for a few seconds before nodding. ¡°Suit yourself.¡±


    There were several chairs in the ward, but Mary picked out the one Si Xia had just sat on. She walked over and sat down under Si Xia¡¯s hostile gaze.


    ¡°This has something to do with your brother Si Fan,¡± Mary said as she looked at Si Xia.


    When Si Xia heard Si Fan¡¯s name, her expression turned ugly. She looked at Mary fiercely and demanded, ¡°What does this have to do with my brother?¡±


    Mary smiled and said patiently, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. Let me tell you slowly. I¡¯m Yin Xun¡¯s assistant and I know a lot of company secrets. Yin Mo loves your brother a lot. In order to please Si Fan, she abused the information she had on me, which led to my brother being kidnapped by Si Fan. He used my brother to threaten me to work for him.


    ¡°I¡¯m sure you¡¯ve been keeping an eye on Yin Mo and Si Fan. In order to please Si Fan, Yin Mo did everything she could and got good results. Si Fan liked her more and more over time.¡± As she spoke, Mary watched Si Xia¡¯s reaction. As expected, when she mentioned that Si Fan liked Yin Mo more and more, Si Xia¡¯s expression became stonier.


    Mary said, ¡°I heard that Si Fan and Yin Mo are currently discussing their engagement¡­¡±

 Chapter 424 - Chapter 424: Dealing With Yin Mo Together

    Chapter 424: Dealing With Yin Mo Together


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Xia said angrily, ¡°Engagement? How could they possibly be engaged?! If they were, my brother would definitely have told me. My brother said that he¡¯s only using Yin Mo as a tool and would never marry her!¡±


    Mary shook her head. ¡°Did your brother not tell you? Looks like he does not care about you as much as Yin Mo. A lot of people know about this already. Si Fan said that as long as Yin Mo succeeds in helping him this time, he will marry Yin Mo right away. After all, Yin Mo¡¯s family background is clear. Si Fan needs Yin Mo¡¯s help with many things. If they get married, Si Fan will belong to Yin Mo, and you will be nothing more than his sister¡­¡±


    Before Mary could finish, Si Xia interrupted her. ¡°No, no, how is that possible? Things arc good enough without that stupid woman Yin Mo getting involved. What can she do to help my brother?¡±


    Perhaps the words had Si Xia¡¯s sore spot, as Si Xia did not seem to be in a good state. Her face was contorted with pain.


    She glared at Mary and said, ¡°I know. You¡¯re Yin Xun¡¯s assistant. Yin Xun asked you to come over, right? I know that she¡¯s new in the industry with Xintao and she¡¯s my brother¡¯s enemy. She knows I¡¯m my brother¡¯s weakness. To defeat my brother, she asked you to deal with me. Just because I¡¯m not in good health, don¡¯t think that you can control me!¡±


    Mary frowned. ¡°Miss Si Xia, you¡¯re imagining things. I¡¯ve already told you that I hate those sisters. All the pain I¡¯m experiencing now stems from the Yin family. I know that you hate Yin Mo too, so I came to work with you. I¡¯m being sincere. If you don¡¯t want to chase Yin Mo away, just tell me. There¡¯s no need to beat around the bush and scold me.¡±


    Si Xia¡¯s heart was not in good condition. Yin Xun told Mary that she could stimulate Si Xia if needed, but she should not go overboard. It would be horrible if someone died.


    Originally, Mary still had more ruthless information that could agitate Si Xia, but before she could say anything, Si Xia was already in such a state. It seemed like there was no need to say anything. Now was a good time.


    ¡°You¡¯re Yin Xun¡¯s assistant. Aren¡¯t you afraid that Yin Xun will find out and fire you?¡± Si Xia had recovered her composure a little.


    Mary laughed coldly. ¡°Fired? My brother is gone. Why should I be afraid of being fired? If firing me can lead to the Yin sisters suffering, then I have no objections. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can ask Si Fan. Yin Mo was the one who urged her to do this. However, if you ask Si Fan about it, even though you might feel comforted, I won¡¯t cooperate with you to defeat Yin Mo.¡±


    ¡°Why?¡± Si Xia asked.


    ¡°Because¡­¡± A few loud laughs suddenly came from downstairs, interrupting Mary.


    She turned her head to look out of the window. Si Xia¡¯s ward was on the sixth floor, the innermost floor. There were no buildings on the other side, but a small park instead.


    At this moment, there were a few people in hospital gowns walking in the park. They were chatting and laughing happily, and there were a few people who looked like bodyguards beside them.


    This hospital was a top private hospital. The environment was as elegant as a resort. Mary¡¯s eyes were filled with envy. She wanted this kind of life too.


    However, she knew that this wish was too extravagant. It was something that she could not get even if she worked hard for her entire life. She was just a lowly worker and dreaded falling sick. If she fell seriously ill, her savings would be gone and she might even be in debt.


    Sighing, she pulled her thoughts together and continued, ¡°You know that Si Fan won¡¯t give up on Yin Mo because she¡¯s useful. If she runs out of usefulness, how could Si Fan marry her with how stupid she is? As such, I can help you deal with Yin Mo.¡±


    ¡°Then what guarantee is there that you¡¯re not doing this to help Yin Xun defeat my brother? Also, you said that Fan kidnapped your brother and used him to threaten you. What if I help you save your brother and this puts a wrench in Fan¡¯s plans?¡± Si Xia said in a low voice.


    It seemed like she was not stupid. At least, she was far smarter than Yin Mo. She even considered all this. Mary said calmly, ¡°I helped your brother get confidential documents from Xintao and steal the official seal. I¡¯ve already done what Si Fan needed me to do. There¡¯s nothing else I need to do.¡±


    ¡°If you¡¯re not useful to him, then there¡¯s no need for Fan to keep your brother. He must still have plans for you. If I help you, won¡¯t I be getting in Fan¡¯s way?¡± Si Xia was actually tempted by the prospect of taking out Yin Mo, but she only wanted to harm Yin Mo and did not want to trouble Si Fan, so she still had some concerns..

    Chapter 425: Yin Xun Is Also Guilty


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mary shrugged. ¡°He refused to let my brother go because he was afraid I would seek revenge on Yin Mo. My life was originally going fine, but ever since I was targeted by Yin Mo, my life has been a mess. The culprits are Yin Xun and Yin Mo. I hate them. But what can I do? I¡¯m not like you guys, who can get whatever you want. I don¡¯t have any connections or status, so I have to work with you.¡±


    Since she had already said so much, Si Xia believed her a little more. However, she still had some doubts. ¡°Based on what you¡¯re saying, all your misfortune is because of Yin Mo, but what does this have to do with Yin Xun?¡±


    ¡°Hah, Miss Si Xia, I didn¡¯t expect you to be so clear about grudges. Why do I hate Yin Xun? If she didn¡¯t start Xintao to compete with Blue Fox and deliberately messed with Si Fan, Si Fan and Yin Mo wouldn¡¯t have set their sights on me. I¡¯ve already violated industry taboo. After I was exposed, I couldn¡¯t find a new job, so I have nothing and nothing to fear. I¡¯m not afraid of doing anything to drag Yin Mo and Yin Xun down with me, as long as you can cooperate with me and give me a chance.¡±


    As she said the words, Mary thought tried to cry. It would make them more real.


    However, these words were too fake and she could not summon any tears. She had no choice but to secretly pinch herself. Finally, her nose felt sore and her eyes became warm. When she pinched herself, she could not help but apologize to Yin Xun in her heart.


    In order to make Si Xia believe her, she could only drag Yin Xun down.


    Si Xia asked again, ¡°You said it yourself that you don¡¯t have any abilities. How are you going to cooperate with me?¡±


    Mary frowned. ¡°I¡¯ve already said that I have nothing, so I¡¯m not afraid of doing anything. Don¡¯t you understand? Besides, I¡¯m not here to ask for your help. We¡¯re here for mutual benefit. My goal is only to save my brother, and your goal is to return to Si Fan¡¯s side and chase Yin Mo away at the same time.¡±


    Si Xia nodded and did not retort.


    ¡°Even though we might not see each other again in the future, you should leave me some hope. You have to understand that people can do anything if they are forced into a corner. Do you think I¡¯m as stupid as Yin Mo and will only be manipulated by others?¡± Mary sneered. She took out a recording pen from her pocket and waved it, gesturing for Si Xia to take a look.


    She said, ¡°Si Fan thought that I wouldn¡¯t know who he was after using a voice changer. He thought that I wouldn¡¯t be able to find his real phone number if he hid his IP address. Don¡¯t forget what my job is. Don¡¯t look down on the position of the president¡¯s assistant. As long as I come to work every day, everyone in the company will treat me with respect. You should know about Mi Jin, right? He was a big shot in your Blue Fox back then.¡±


    Upon hearing the name Mi Jin, Si Xia was very surprised. ¡°Mi Jin? The one who leaked company secrets, tried to monopolize Blue Fox, and even attacked someone? Wasn¡¯t he sent to prison by my brother?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right, he was sent to prison by Si Fan.¡± Mary said, ¡°He¡¯s out of prison now and he¡¯s working in Xintao. That aside, you must know his ability. With him helping me behind the scenes, it was easy to find out that the person who called me was Si Fan. It¡¯s just a voice changer; those are very easy to crack. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can call Si Fan and ask him, but I advise you not to mention me. Otherwise, even if you know that I¡¯m not lying, we won¡¯t be able to proceed.¡±


    Si Xia just stared at Mary without saying anything, nor did she have any intention of making a call.


    Mary¡¯s patience gradually faded. She said impatiently, ¡°Isn¡¯t your heart the one that¡¯s unwell? It¡¯s not your brain. Why is it so difficult to communicate with you? Is it so difficult to make a decision? I¡¯ll give you one last chance and we can start formulating a plan. When the plan succeeds, I¡¯ll hand over this recording pen to you to do as you please. Don¡¯t worry, I definitely don¡¯t have a backup recording.¡±


    ¡°Or you can just refuse. I¡¯ll take this recording to Si Fan. If he wants to mess with my brother, then I¡¯ll mess with him. Anyway, I have nothing left and I¡¯m not afraid of anything. I don¡¯t have anything to lose. Besides, kidnapping is not a light crime. No matter how well-connected he is, Si Fan will go to jail for a few years. This is under the premise that he doesn¡¯t kill my brother. If my brother is dead, then he can¡¯t avoid being charged with murder. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can call Si Fan and ask about this. As for what to ask, I think you should already know..¡±

    Chapter 426: Si Xia Was Going Home

    Si Xia looked at Mary. If Mary had always lowered her head and listened quietly, Si Xia might have rejected her directly. However, seeing how confident Mary was and how she seemed to be more powerful than her, Si Xia guessed that she was not lying.


    It did not matter if Yin Mo was destroyed. However, it would be best if she could get rid of Yin Mo while ensuring that Si Fan was unscathed.


    ¡°How do I know if this recording of yours is real or fake? Play it for me.¡± Si Xia was convinced by Mary¡¯s words but she was still worried.


    After all, Mary was Yin Xun¡¯s subordinate. What if she used this opportunity to do something unfavorable to Si Fan?


    Mary became more and more impatient. She looked at Si Xia coldly and stood up to walk out. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if you believe me or not. I just thought that you care about Si Fan and happen to hate Yin Mo, so it would be good for us to cooperate. Since you don¡¯t want to, I can find someone else. There are many people who want to defeat Si Fan too. Sorry for disturbing you. Just pretend that I didn¡¯t come, or you can report this to Si Fan. At most, we¡¯ll fight each other to the bitter end.¡±


    ¡°Hey, wait!¡± Seeing that Mary was about to open the door and walk out, Si Xia stopped her. ¡°Alright, I agree. As for verifying it with my brother, there¡¯s no need for that. If you break the contract, I have plenty of ways to deal with you.¡±


    Smiling, Mary closed the door and sat back down. ¡°Sure. Let¡¯s talk about what to do next.¡±


    ¡°Since you said that you my brother can¡¯t find out about this, I can¡¯t ask him where your little brother is. I need to go back and investigate myself. But don¡¯t worry. I know ail of my brother¡¯s subordinates. I think 1 know who kidnapped your little brother. 1¡¯11 let you know when there¡¯s an update,¡± Si Xia said.


    Mary nodded. ¡°Perfect. I also need to do something when I get back. Let¡¯s keep in touch.¡±


    The two of them talked for a while more. Finally, after confirming everything, Mary left the ward and closed the door behind Si Xia.


    Si Xia watched Mary close the door and leave. She got up and walked to the window to look down.


    After a while, Si Xia saw Mary¡¯s figure reappear downstairs. She walked quickly and soon disappeared from sight.


    It seemed like Mary did not stay outside for long. Si Xia retracted her gaze, picked up her phone, and called Si Fan.


    Si Fan picked up after two rings.


    ¡°Xiaxia, stop fooling around. I don¡¯t have time to accompany you recently. I¡¯ll visit you when I have time, okay?¡± Si Fan was probably busy with something at the moment. He did not sound to be in a good mood and seemed impatient. He probably thought Si Xia was going to throw a tantrum again.


    Si Xia ignored Si Fan¡¯s attitude and said coquettishly, ¡°Brother, the doctor said that I don¡¯t have to stay in the hospital anymore. It¡¯s no problem if I go home to recuperate. I¡¯ve decided to go home. Also, Brother, it seems like you¡¯re only making time for Yin Mo now. How long has it been since you last came to see me? I miss you so much.¡±


    Si Fan did not answer immediately. After a few seconds of silence, he asked curiously, ¡°Aren¡¯t you doing fine in the hospital? Why would you come back? Did you hear some news? 1 don¡¯t have the energy to take care of you now. What if something happens to you?¡±


    It was obvious that Si Fan did not want her to go back home. Si Xia had grown up beside Si Fan, so she could immediately tell the implication of his words.


    ¡°Brother, do you hate me and don¡¯t want me back home?¡± Si Xia asked in disappointment.


    ¡°How could that be?¡± Si Fan was stunned for a moment and quickly said, ¡°You¡¯re my dear sister. How could I hate you? But I¡¯m really busy now. What if something happens to you when you¡¯re at home? I¡¯m worried about you.¡±


    Si Xia really wanted to ask Si Fan about Yin Mo, but she remembered what Mary said before she left. The two of them must not let Si Fan know that they had met. Otherwise, Si Fan would definitely not let her return home for the sake of Yin Mo¡¯s safety.


    Si Fan said, ¡°Xiaxia, be good and listen to me. If you really want to come back, I¡¯ll pick you up personally after I¡¯m done in a few days.¡±


    ¡°Alright, Brother. I¡¯ll wait for you. Come soon.¡± Si Xia knew what Si Fan had decided. It was useless no matter how much she argued.


    She decided to agree to his terms now and secretly go back tomorrow to give Si Fan a surprise. At the same time, she wanted to see how far Si Fan and Yin Mo had progressed.


    After hanging up the phone, Si Xia started to pack her things. Regardless of whether Si Fan wanted her home or not, she had to go back.


    On the other side, Mary was also heading back to report the situation to Yin Xun.


    She returned to the company to look for Yin Xun, but she realized that Yin Xun was no longer in the office. She only found out that Yin Xun had left the building after asking some other employees. She could only take out her phone and call Yin Xun..

 Chapter 427 - Chapter 427: Almost Got Lost

    Chapter 427: Almost Got Lost


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At this moment, Yin Xun was holding her phone and using the navigation system to find her way. However, after taking multiple lefts and rights, she looked at the increasingly barren scenery outside the car and felt very helpless.


    She knew that the map was inaccurate, but she did not expect it to be this bad. It somehow brought her to a deserted suburb.


    She was going to meet a digital mapping company that Fang Yao had introduced to her.


    Because of her relationship with Fang Yao, she did not even need to make an appointment. The leader of the company took the initiative to contact her to discuss the cooperation and said that Yin Xun could meet them right away. Since the opportunity had come, how could Yin Xun pass it up? As such, she immediately set off.


    She did not know where the company building was, but there was an online map. At first, she thought that since it came directly from the source, the map definitely would not be wrong, so she trusted the map fully. She drove according to the given directions and was taken out of the city.


    Initially, she thought that the company was in the suburbs, but when she saw that there was not a single building around her, she realized how bad the situation was.


    The navigation told Yin Xun to turn right. Yin Xun looked at the long gully to her right and sighed helplessly. Next to the gully was a large wheat field. Presumably, it was used to release water.


    She turned left and saw a dense forest. She could only see the small area closest to her. When she tried to look further in, the dense trees blocked her view.


    On top of that, the road she was walking on was a dirt road. Every time the car moved, dust clouds would fill the air.


    Looking at the surrounding environment, Yin Xun touched her forehead in despair. She counted her blessings that she was in the world of a romance novel. If this was a criminal investigation novel, her life would be in danger now. It was only too easy for her to meet a murderer.


    She glanced at the rearview mirror. Tan Ai was sitting in the back with her eyes closed. Fortunately, she had brought bodyguards with her. Otherwise, this situation would be really terrifying.


    However, Yin Xun still wanted to complain. Although there was nothing wrong with Tan Ai¡¯s professionalism as a bodyguard, her attitude made her look cold and unreasonable.


    Whenever Yin Xun spoke to her, she would not answer any unnecessary questions, as though speaking was against the rules.


    Yin Xun wanted to complain to Tan Ai, but seeing that she kept her eyes shut, she decided not to disturb her and continued to look at the road.


    The navigation accuracy was ridiculously poor. She might as well read the map herself.


    Yin Xun enlarged the map and found the location of the digital company. She looked at which route was more suitable. After confirming it, she turned the car around and started driving back.


    Fortunately, she had filled the gas tank before she came out. Otherwise, it would be disastrous if she ran out of gas after driving for so long.


    She had not set off for long when her phone suddenly rang. It was Mary. Yin Xun pulled over and pressed the answer button.


    ¡°How did it go?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°The negotiation went well. Si Xia agreed to work with me, but she said she needed some time to save my brother.¡± Mary told Yin Xun everything she had talked to Si Xia about.


    This outcome was within Yin Xun¡¯s expectations. However, when she thought about how Yin Mo was currently in prison, she said, ¡°I would assume that when Si Xia returns and sees that Yin Mo isn¡¯t there and isn¡¯t with Si Fan, she will definitely break the deal and refuse to work with you.¡±


    Si Xia¡¯s goal was to chase Yin Mo away and monopolize Si Fan. Since Yin Mo was not with him, there was no need for her to continue working with Mary.


    ¡°All, then what should we do? My brother¡­¡± Mary panicked.


    Yin Xun comforted her. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be anxious. Let¡¯s take it one step at a time. Si Fan doesn¡¯t know that Yin Mo is in prison. We still have a chance.¡±


    She knew how anxious Mary was. This was her only chance to save her brother.


    Moreover, Si Xia already knew that Mary had a grudge against Si Fan, so she would definitely tell Si Fan eventually. If Si Fan found out, then everything would be over.


    ¡°Then what should I do?¡± Mary placed all her hopes on Yin Xun. She could only trust Yin Xun and do whatever Yin Xun asked her to do.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about anything right now. If Si Xia calls to tell you that the deal is off, you don¡¯t have to be anxious either. The calmer you are, the better. It¡¯s best if you act like you don¡¯t care at all and don¡¯t let Si Xia notice your panic. Leave the rest to me. When the time is right, I¡¯ll tell you what to do.¡±


    Mary acknowledged the instructions and hung up.


    Putting the phone back on the stand, Yin Xun was not in a hurry to drive again. Instead, she sat there and looked at the wheat field outside, thinking.


    There were two big problems now. One was to ensure Mark¡¯s safety, and the other was to protect Dai Ning from people planning to harm her..

 Chapter 428 - Chapter 428: Lecherous Boss

    Chapter 428: Lecherous Boss


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Initially, Yin Xun suspected that Si Fan had hired someone to inject drugs into Dai Ning¡¯s body. However, now that she thought about it, the probability of that was not very high.


    If it was really Si Fan behind it, then he must have sent someone to monitor Yin Mo¡¯s situation at all times. That way, he would have already known about Yin Mo¡¯s imprisonment.


    However, it was clear that he had no idea that Yin Mo was in prison because he had asked someone to look for news on her.


    At that time, there was only Lin Zhu and her at the scene. When the police took Yin Mo away, they used the chairman¡¯s private passageway, so the other employees in the company building did not know about this.


    Si Fan would never expect that she would really send Yin Mo to prison. He would probably think that Yin Mo was just locked up in the Yin family home again.


    However, if it was not Si Fan behind it, then who could it be? The attack seemed to be premeditated. The offender appeared immediately after Dai Ning fainted. It seemed that Dai Ning had been followed long ago.


    Who could it be? Yin Xun did not know much about Dai Ning¡¯s family. It seemed that she could only wait for the police¡¯s investigation results.


    Yin Xun shook her head and prepared to drive to the digital company first. She would think about these things when she had time.


    According to the route she mapped out, Yin Xun finally found the right way. She went straight to the digital company and Tan Ai followed behind her silently.


    Yin Xun told the receptionist her identity. Not long after, the company¡¯s CEO personally came down to welcome her.


    ¡°Oh, President Yin, why didn¡¯t you tell me in advance that you were coming? I could have sent someone to pick you up.¡± The company¡¯s CEO was a plump man in his thirties or forties. He was not tall and the top of his head was balding. His long hair was draped over his bald spot horizontally and was secured with hair gel.


    Before she came, Fang Yao had told her that the boss¡¯s name was Sha Gao. He was quite capable, but his only flaw was that he was lecherous.


    He was already married and had two children. Despite his age, he still often went to look for young ladies and hooked up with mistresses. However, he did all this behind his wife¡¯s back.


    Sha Gao bared his yellowish teeth and walked over to Yin Xun with a smile. He reached out his tanned fat hand to shake Yin Xun¡¯s.


    Yin Xun smiled politely and reached out her hand slightly to touch hands briefly.


    She did not expect Sha Gao to not even bother being subtle. Both his hands grabbed Yin Xun¡¯s hand, and he made an exaggerated shaking motion. He did not let go for a long time and kept praising her. ¡°I have heard that Miss Yin is young, but has outstanding abilities. Now that 1 have seen you, it¡¯s not only your abilities that are outstanding¡ªeven your looks are amazing. You¡¯re really an all-rounded talent.¡±


    ¡°President Sha, you must be joking.¡± Yin Xun pulled her hand back but could not get out. Sha Gao¡¯s grip on her hand was very tight. She frowned slightly.


    She was about to speak when Tan Ai, who was standing behind her, spoke.


    Tan Ai looked at Sha Gao holding Yin Xun¡¯s hand without letting go. Her gaze was still a little contorted, so she looked at him coldly and said, ¡°President Sha, our President Yin is here to discuss a collaboration with you.¡±


    When Yin Xun heard Tan Ai¡¯s voice, she was a little surprised. She did not expect Tan Ai to take the initiative to speak up for her. In her shock, she even forgot to withdraw her hand.


    Sha Gao looked at Tan Ai unhappily, but when he met Tan Ai¡¯s cold gaze, he suddenly felt a little unnerved.


    He smiled awkwardly and let go of her hand. He apologized at the same time. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, President Yin. I got a little excited when 1 saw you. You are a popular person in the industry, after all. Xintao is doing so well! Many companies wish to collaborate with you, and I am no exception. I did not expect that you would actually take the initiative to look for us. 1 am very flattered.¡±


    Yin Xun could not help but find Sha Gao a little amusing. It was obvious that Sha Gao was the type to fear those stronger than him.


    Tan Ai looked like a person not to be trifled with. Coupled with the fact that she rarely smiled and was cold all day, she looked like a murderous thug. Even Yin Xun was shocked by Tan Ai¡¯s temperament the first time she saw her. It was normal for Sha Gao to behave like this.


    ¡°President Sha, why don¡¯t we find a place to discuss the cooperation?¡± Yin Xun said.


    Sha Gao clapped his forehead and said hastily, ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. Look at this brain of mine. 1 forgot what I wanted to do in my excitement.¡±


    Sha Gao led Yin Xun to the meeting room upstairs and the two of them began to discuss cooperation.


    Yin Xun realized that although Sha Gao was lecherous and sleazy a moment ago, but when it came to work, he immediately seemed to have changed into a different person. He spoke his mind clearly and he considered all aspects.


    He had always known the problems with his company. The positioning system was inaccurate, and there were always bugs in the voice navigation.


    He had been recruiting capable programmers and upgrading the software. However, because of the limited technology, it could not be perfected..

 Chapter 429 - Chapter 429: Successful Cooperation

    Chapter 429: Successful Cooperation


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun told him about Xintao Express¡¯s plan to cooperate with the map navigation system. Sha Gao immediately looked impressed.


    Nowadays, couriers used manual directions. Therefore, when employees first joined a courier company, they had to spend a lot of effort to train them to recognize the paths.


    If there was a map with precise location tracking, not only could they know the location of their courier at any time, but it was also very convenient for the couriers to deliver packages.


    This was an innovation that no one adopted yet.


    Actually, Yin Xun still had plans for an online taxi system, but this was a new prospect. Before she settled things with the mapping company, she would not say it out loud. If it was leaked to other companies, or if this mapping company took the plan for themselves and went online first, it would be a loss for her.


    This kind of thing happened in her original world. After plagiarizing another company¡¯s project, some companies went online first and snagged the customer base, causing the first company to suffer huge losses. She did not want this to happen to her.


    ¡°President Yin, your idea is good, but you must understand that the current level of technology cannot get you what you want. 1 have been hiring capable programmers, but although they are all skilled programmers, they are still unable to reach that level of precision.¡± Sha Gao admired Yin Xun¡¯s plans, but what they could do was limited. He felt that his company could not fulfill Yin Xun¡¯s request.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. After we cooperate, the program will be handed over to my company. Your company only needs to provide information gathering.¡±


    This was already the best digital mapping company in the country. Yin Xun was still looking forward to working with them.


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Sha Gao was tempted.


    However, he was a wily old fox. Even if he was tempted, he would not show it. Instead, he began to negotiate with Yin Xun. Sha Gao was experienced, but Yin Xun was not bad either. Negotiations were her forte.


    The two of them talked for nearly an hour. In the back-and-forth discussions, they finally decided to make the cooperation official.


    ¡°President Yin is still young. I¡¯m surprised that you¡¯re so experienced I¡¯m handling things. I have high hopes for our future collaboration. I believe that we will succeed with your ability,¡± Sha Gao said. At the same time, he walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and tried to shake hands with her.


    Given the earlier incident, Yin Xun pretended not to see it. She turned around to take her bag and smiled at Sha Gao. ¡°President Sha, I hope we can work well together in the future.¡±


    Sha Gao saw that Yin Xun did not plan to shake his hand. He smiled awkwardly and put his hand down. ¡°President Yin, in order to celebrate our happy collaboration, why don¡¯t you stay for a meal?¡±


    Yin Xun declined politely. ¡°Thank you for your kindness, President Sha, but I still have some things to do, so I won¡¯t be eating for now. I¡¯ll treat you to a good celebration when I have the time.¡±


    ¡°Alright, since President Yin still has something on, then I will not force you to stay.¡± Sha Gao laughed as he said.


    Yin said goodbye to Sha Gao and left the company with Tan Ai.


    Sha Gao personally escorted her to the door. He originally wanted to get someone to send Yin Xun back, but when he saw that Yin Xun had driven over herself, he did not mention this matter anymore.


    Yin Xun drove away. Sha Gao stood on the spot and looked at Yin Xun¡¯s retreating figure. The smile on his face instantly disappeared.


    The assistant standing at the side was puzzled and asked, ¡°President Sha, this President Yin is acquainted with Young Master Fang. Why didn¡¯t you mention this matter to President Yin just now so that Young Master Fang could be on good terms with our company in the future? After all, it is not easy to get close to the Fang family.¡±


    ¡°Hmph, are you stupid? It¡¯s precisely because they know each other that I can¡¯t mention this. It would seem too deliberate. If it weren¡¯t for Young Master Fang, who would cooperate with a small company that has just started? Blue Fox is the natural first choice. However, this Yin Xun does have some ideas. I have a hunch that our future development will be good.¡±


    Sha Gao raised his hand and patted the assistant shoulder, but his eyes were fixed on the direction where Yin Xun had disappeared.


    The assistant was clapped heavily by Sha Gao and staggered for a moment. He stabilized his body and muttered, ¡°It seems like President Yin and Young Master Fang have something going on. You were holding her hand for so long just now. Aren¡¯t you afraid that Young Master Fang will hold it against you if he finds out?¡±


    Sha Gao turned to look at his assistant. His gaze made the assistant¡¯s hair stand on end.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t that your fault, you rascal? Why didn¡¯t you remind me?!¡± Sha Gao clapped the assistant¡¯s shoulder again. This time, he used even more force. He clapped the assistant so hard that he tumbled two steps forward and almost fell down. ¡°But, while we¡¯re on the subject, President Yin is really beautiful. She is much more beautiful than those women I had fun with in the past.. If I can only get her¡­¡±

 Chapter 430 - Chapter 430: Plan To Take Yin Xun

    Chapter 430: Plan To Take Yin Xun


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°President Sha, she is Young Master Fang¡¯s woman. Don¡¯t tell me you plan to make a move on her? Even if she¡¯s not in a relationship with Young Master Fang, she¡¯s still the eldest daughter of the Yin family.¡±


    Sha Gao licked his lips and narrowed his eyes. ¡°I¡¯ve asked around. Young Master Fang already has a fiancee. Yin Xun has nothing to do with Young Master Fang. She probably just worked with him before. As long as she¡¯s not Young Master Fang¡¯s woman, it means that 1 have a chance¡­¡±


    Thinking of his past achievements, Sha Gao was very proud of himself. No woman could dodge his advances. Even if the other party was a young lady, as long as he played his hand right, he would be able to reel her in.


    He liked youthful women like Yin Xun the most. Although she was capable, she was not the scheming type. She was probably very innocent and easy to deceive.


    Everyone in the circle knew about the Second Miss of the Yin family. That girl loved Si Fan and stuck to him every day. Si Fan received a lot of benefits from Yin Mo in the past.


    If it was someone else who came today, he would be more cautious. Yin Xun, however, was Yin Mo¡¯s biological sister. If her sister was like this, Yin Xun should not be that difficult a woman.


    He just needed to lure Yin Xun into being with him and made her see him like how Yin Mo saw Si Fan. He would naturally not have to worry about future cooperation with her.


    The children of the Yin family were well-known for being fools in the industry.


    Yin Xun was driving away right now. Naturally, she did not know what Sha Gao was thinking. She did not plan to return to the company but drove straight to the hospital.


    Now that she was done with her work for the day, all she needed to do was get Mary to complete the contract, then she could sign a contract with Sha Gao.


    Originally, Yin Xun wanted to complain to Tan Ai about the lecherous Sha Gao, but the bodyguard was always indifferent and did not seem to want to speak at all. Yin Xun could only keep quiet and not say anything else.


    Looking at Tan Ai¡¯s cold expression in the rearview mirror, Yin Xun thought that she would strive to change her personality. It was not good to be depressed all the time.


    Yin Xun drove all the way to the hospital and arrived at Yin Cheng¡¯s ward.


    When she walked in, Wu Li was cutting an apple for Yin Cheng. When she saw Yin Xun, she handed the apple to her.


    ¡°Thanks, Mom.¡± Yin Xun took the sliced fruit but did not eat it. Instead, she approached Yin Cheng first. ¡°Dad, how are you feeling?¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s face was still pale and he looked like he had aged a few extra years. He looked exhausted.


    Fortunately, his life was not in danger. The doctor said that he would be fine as long as he rested, but he could not afford to get agitated again. If he did, the consequences could be very serious.


    Seeing Yin Cheng like this, Yin Xun privately swore that she would not give Yin Seeing Yin Cheng like this, Yin Xun privately swore that she would not give Yin Mo another chance to anger Yin Cheng.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m fine,¡± Yin Cheng said. Then, he turned to Wu Li and said, ¡°Wasn¡¯t that my apple? Why did you give it to Yin Xun as soon as she arrived? I¡¯m the patient here.¡±


    Wu Li smiled and said, ¡°1¡¯11 peel another apple for you. Why are you fighting over it with your daughter?¡±


    Seeing that Yin Cheng still had the energy to joke around, Yin Xun finally felt relieved and the last bit of worry melted away. Only then did she pick up a piece of apple and pop it in her mouth.


    ¡°Xun, 1 have something to ask you.¡± Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun and suddenly spoke.


    Hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s words, Yin Xun and Wu Li paused at the same time. Then, the two of them looked at each other. Yin Xun could see the reluctance in Wu Li¡¯s eyes.


    Although Yin Cheng did not say what he wanted to ask, Wu Li and Yin Xun guessed what it was immediately.


    Yin Xun was unnerved but she did not show it on her face. She calmly ate a piece of apple and asked, ¡°What do you want to ask?¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°You¡¯ve already guessed it. Xun, how is Mo¡¯er doing?¡±


    ¡°Do you want to hear the truth?¡± Yin Xun placed the apple back on the table and looked at Yin Cheng seriously.


    After seeing Yin Cheng nod, Yin Xun sighed and said, ¡°But you can¡¯t get angry. If you have an issue with it, we can discuss it properly. If you get angry, it will be dangerous with your current health.¡±


    Wu Li hurriedly said, ¡°Xun, your father has just got out of imminent danger. The doctor also said that he needs to recuperate. If there¡¯s something to discuss, we¡¯ll talk about it after your father is discharged. Let¡¯s not talk about anything else now.¡±


    ¡°Let her speak. Mo¡¯er is also my daughter. I have the right to know how she is doing,¡± Yin Cheng said slowly.


    Wu Li said worriedly, ¡°Hubby, you¡­¡±


    ¡°Mom, don¡¯t worry about it.¡± Yin Xun stopped Wu Li, then looked at Yin Cheng and said in a deep voice, ¡°Yin Mo will never change her ways. She will do anything for Si Fan. Even when you locked her up at home previously, she still found an opportunity to sneak out and cause trouble at the company. In order to prevent future trouble, I banished her from the Yin family and told her that you no longer acknowledged her as your daughter. After that, I called the police and sent her to the police station..¡±

 Chapter 431 - Chapter 431: Si Fan Will Do It

    Chapter 431: Si Fan Will Do It


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun¡¯s voice was indifferent. She did not think that what she had done was wrong.


    Of course, she had to consider kinship, but if that kinship might bring endless trouble and pain, she might as well end it.


    Yin Cheng did not say anything. Yin Xun continued, ¡°She¡¯s in prison now. Dad, if you¡¯re worried, you can bail her out.¡±


    If Yin Cheng was as stubborn as Yin Mo, then she might have to reconsider this matter in the future.


    ¡°Forget it. She would do anything for Si Fan now. I still want to live a few more years. Since she wants Si Fan so much, I¡¯ll fulfill her wish. From now on, our Yin family only has you and Rui¡¯er as our two children,¡± Yin Cheng said dejectedly.


    Wu Li was also heartbroken by Yin Mo¡¯s actions. After all, Yin Mo was the daughter she had raised for more than 20 years. The sudden change was a huge blow to her.


    However, Yin Mo had gone overboard this time. Although her heart ached, Wu Li did not want to continue protecting Yin Mo.


    ¡°I agree with your father,¡± Wu Li said softly.


    Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief. She was worried that Wu Li and Yin Cheng would continue to protect Yin Mo because they could not bear to part with her. If that were the case, Yin Mo would continue to make mistakes in the future. With Si Fan pulling her strings from behind, the Yin Corporation would sooner or later be destroyed by her.


    Yin Xun had transmigrated to this world to protect her family, but the prerequisite was that her family had to be rational people. Otherwise, no matter how capable she was, she would not be able to overcome the burden of being held back.


    There was a saying, ¡°You do not fear a godly opponent but a worthless ally.¡± The saying made sense.


    Seeing that Yin Cheng and Wu Li were in low spirits, Yin Xun comforted them. ¡°Dad, Mom, it¡¯s better not to have a daughter like her. Just pretend that you never gave birth to her.¡±


    Yin Cheng,¡±¡­¡±


    Wu Li,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡°Xun, actually, if you don¡¯t know how to comfort people, you don¡¯t have to try,¡± Wu Li said helplessly.


    Yin Xun paused for a moment and said, ¡°Alright then. There¡¯s really no need to seek comfort for this. After all, there¡¯s no difference whether you had this daughter or not. Other than asking for money, she rarely contacts you or comes home.¡±


    Wu Li forced a smile and said, ¡°Now that you mention it, 1 feel even worse.¡± ¡°Xun, what do you think about this? Without us giving her pocket money, what if she can¡¯t live a good life in the future? Do you think she will turn over a new leaf and come back to look for us? Maybe these things won¡¯t happen after that.¡± Yin Cheng interrupted Wu Li and Yin Xun¡¯s conversation. He knew that Yin Xun could not say anything that could really comfort him, so he quickly changed the tone.


    At the same time, those were his true thoughts. Although Yin Mo had done many wrong things, in his heart, Yin Mo had always been a gentle and obedient daughter. If Yin Mo could really repent, that would be wonderful.


    ¡°She¡¯s willing to go to prison and cut ties with the Yin family, but she¡¯s not willing to give up on Si Fan. It¡¯s obvious that she won¡¯t give up on Si Fan so easily. As for how Si Fan treats her, do you think Si Fan usually treats her well? She thinks whatever Si Fan does is good. That said, there¡¯s one situation that might bring her back to see us.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s tone changed. She looked at Wu Li and said, ¡°If she marries Si Fan, she will think she made the right choice. Then she might come back to show off to us, and then¡­¡±


    ¡°And then what?¡± Yin Cheng asked.


    ¡°And then seek revenge on us.¡± Yin Xun took another bite of the apple. Her expression was indifferent; it was like she was talking about the weather.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s expression darkened. He retorted, ¡°Although Mo¡¯er made mistakes, she¡¯s not a bad person. She won¡¯t do such a thing. After all, we¡¯re family.¡±


    Wu Li also did not believe that Yin Mo would attack her family. She said, ¡°Mo¡¯er has been a kind soul since she was young; she couldn¡¯t even bear to step on a little bug. Every time she saw a stray cat or dog, she would try to save it. How could such a kind child attack her family?¡±


    Yin Cheng and Wu Li had raised Yin Mo for more than 20 years. They believed they knew Yin Mo¡¯s personality the best. No matter how muddle-headed Yin Mo was, she would not hurt her family.


    Yin Xun sighed at her parent¡¯s refusal to accept this. It was precisely because they trusted their daughter too much that, in the original novel, no matter how much trouble Yin Mo caused, their first reaction was to worry about her and never suspect her. That was why the Yin family was destroyed.


    This time, with Yin Xun around, this situation would not be allowed to happen again.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Yin Mo might not, but Si Fan will definitely do it..¡±

    Yin Cheng and Wu Li did not speak again. They had already seen through Si Fan¡¯s character. If he was already instigating Yin Mo to harm her own family now, who knew what he would do in the future?


    Actually, there was another situation that Yin Xun did not mention. If Yin Mo became crippled and had nowhere to go, she would definitely return to the Yin family. When Yin Xun first read the original text, Yin Mo was treated as a spare organ farm by Si Fan. As long as it was an organ that Si Xia needed, it would be taken away from Yin Mo in the end. When Yin Mo was no longer usable, it would be time for Si Fan to completely abandon her.


    Si Fan would eventually fall in love with Yin Mo for real, but that was after Yin Mo had been destroyed beyond repair and her family had all been killed.


    Yin Xun knew that Wu Li and Yin Cheng would not believe her even if she tried to explain this.


    ¡°Xun, how has Xintao been these past few days? Logically speaking, isn¡¯t it time to go online already? What are you waiting for? Could it be that you¡¯ve encountered some difficulties? If there are any problems, just tell Daddy. Don¡¯t feel embarrassed. No matter what trouble you need help with, Daddy will lend you a hand.¡± After a moment of silence, Yin Cheng spoke again.


    He actually felt very uncomfortable about Yin Mo being sent to prison and severing ties with the Yin family. However, all of this had nothing to do with Yin Xun. Yin Xun was also a victim here.


    Wu Li added, ¡°I heard from your father that Si Fan kidnapped Mary¡¯s younger brother. What¡¯s going on? Is Si Fan doing this to take you down? Does Mo¡¯er know about this?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng levelly. She did not expect Yin Cheng to tell Wu Li about this.


    When she first spoke about it, she had already told Yin Cheng to keep it a secret. Even Wu Li could not be informed; the fewer people who knew about it, the better.


    ¡°Well, your mother is not an outsider. It¡¯s fine if I tell her. She won¡¯t tell anyone.¡± Yin Cheng smiled weakly and awkwardly. At the same time, he winked at Yin Xun and mouthed a reminder to her.


    Yin Xun, who knew Yin Cheng¡¯s background, immediately understood what Yin Cheng meant. She no longer dwelled on this matter and said, ¡°Yin Mo was aware that she was helping Si Fan do it. However, I already found a way to save Mary¡¯s brother. The two of you don¡¯t have to get involved. Just pretend that you don¡¯t know.¡±


    Wu Li¡¯s face was filled with worry. She was about to say something when Yin Cheng interrupted her. ¡°Alright, Xun is not a child anymore. She knows what to do. If she encounters any difficulties, she will definitely tell us. We just have to believe her.¡±


    Yin Xun accompanied Wu Li and Yin Cheng for a while longer. Time passed quickly. Seeing that the sky outside was gradually darkening, Wu Li urged Yin Xun to go back.


    Originally, Yin Xun wanted to stay in the hospital to take care of Yin Cheng and let Wu Li go home first. After all, Wu Li had been frightened during the day and had been watching Yin Cheng for hours. Yin Xun wanted her to go back and rest, but Wu Li refused.


    Since she was told to leave, Yin Xun did not argue. She comforted Wu Li and Yin Cheng a little more before leaving under their deep gazes. She drove straight back to the villa in the suburbs.


    The streetlights in the villa area were turned on rather early. When she returned, the sky was not completely dark yet, but the streetlights were already turned on.


    Passing by Fang Yao¡¯s house, Yin Xun slowed down the car and peered into the yard. There was a patch of greenery in the yard, but no one was there.


    Yin Xun wanted to say hello to Fang Yao and thank him for introducing her to the business contact, but then she realized that she did not bring a gift with her. It was not appropriate to greet him like this.


    Moreover, it was dinner time now. If she called for him, it would look like she was deliberately freeloading. That was no good.


    After thinking about it, Yin Xun decided to show her gratitude to Fang Yao after buying him a gift tomorrow.


    At this junction, she suddenly remembered what Qu Lin had said the other day. She said that Fang Yao did not like plants at all. It seemed that she had to change her gift.


    When she got back home, Yin Xun realized that Liu Ying was not there today. Back then, Liu Ying said that she did not have money and wanted to come to her place to cook every day. Why did she stop coming over after just a few days? Yin Xun was even looking forward to eating the food she made.


    Could it be that Liu Ying had money now? Yin Xun suddenly remembered that when she came back with Fang Yao the other day, she saw Liu Ying driving a sports car. She immediately seemed to understand.


    If Liu Ying could drive a sports car, she must have had money or was busy with other things. It seemed that she would not be getting a proper meal for now. If Liu Ying stopped coming over, Yin Xun would have to consider hiring a chef.


    She turned her head. At this moment, Tan Ai was sitting on the sofa, drinking water and looking at her phone.


    Thinking about how Tan Ai and Fang Yao knew each other, she moved to Tan Ai¡¯s side and asked with a smile, ¡°Tan Ai, do you know what Fang Yao likes? What¡¯s a good gift to get him?¡±


    Tan Ai put down her cup and looked at Yin Xun silently..

    Chapter 433: Yin Xun Was Thrashed By The Bodyguard


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Looking at Tan Ai¡¯s expressionless face, Yin Xun was a little discouraged. Tan Ai¡¯s personality was so cold. How could she expect her to answer the question? Tan Ai would only ensure Yin Xun¡¯s safety; she would not care about anything else.


    ¡°Flowers, belts, watches, clothes, and the like. These are all fine.¡± Just when Yin Xun thought Tan Ai would not answer, Tan Ai suddenly spoke.


    Yin Xun looked at Tan Ai in disbelief. She did not expect Tan Ai, who rarely spoke unless it was necessary, to tell her what gift she should give Fang Yao!


    Despite her surprise, Yin Xun said dejectedly, ¡°1 gave Fang Yao loads of flowers. Qu Lin said that he doesn¡¯t really like them, so I don¡¯t know what to give him now.¡±


    The corners of Tan Ai¡¯s mouth twitched, and she said helplessly, ¡°With flowers, you look for bouquets like rose lilies. They have different meanings and different types.¡±


    ¡°So he likes this kind of thing. No wonder. I thought he wouldn¡¯t like flowers.¡± Yin Xun nodded in understanding. ¡°1 think a potted plant is much better than a bouquet, but since Fang Yao likes it, 1¡¯11 follow your advice and get him one of those.¡±


    It was said that if you listened to others, you would find your way. Especially when it came to roping in favors, it was better for her to follow whatever advice she could get.


    Yin Xun was thinking about the gift and did not notice that Tan Ai was looking at her with a weird gaze.


    However, the emotions in her eyes immediately disappeared when Yin Xun turned around to look. In an instant, she returned to normal.


    Yin Xun felt a little sleepy and yawned; she planned to get a bowl of instant noodles.


    Just as she got up, she saw Shu Yi coming out of the kitchen with a thermal lunch box in her hand.


    ¡°Miss Yin, the Fang family butler brought this over before you came back. He said that it was a diet meal prepared for you. Since you were too embarrassed to go over to their house to eat, he had no choice send it over to you.¡± Shu Yi smiled as she placed the lunch box in front of Yin Xun before sitting down beside Tan Ai.


    Since the butler had already sent it over, Yin Xun could not waste his effort.


    Yin Xun opened the thermos box, and a fragrance immediately assaulted her nose. When she smelled the aroma, her stomach growled.


    After all, Fang Yao¡¯s chef was really amazing. He could actually make a diet meal this delicious. Yin Xun¡¯s appetite was exceptionally good every time she ate his food. If she ate freely, she might still become fat in no time.


    After dinner, Yin Xun cleaned the lunch box. She wanted to take a shower and go to sleep. However, to her surprise, Tan Ai took the initiative to pull her out to train today!


    Usually, Yin Xun was the one who pulled Tan Ai along for training. If she did not say anything, neither would the bodyguards. However, for some reason, this time, Tan Ai was rather insistent about it, as if she would not give up unless they sparred.


    Tan Ai was behaving very differently from usual during today¡¯s sparring. Yin Xun did not know if she had offended her in any way, but she was being especially serious today. Yin Xun was exhausted half to death and Tan Ai only paused when Yin Xun was laying sprawled on the ground.


    Yin Xun lay on the soft ground and panted heavily. At this moment, she felt like she was really about to die.


    She thought about how she usually trained with Fang Yao. Although Fang Yao was also very strict with her, he had always been disciplined. He would always stop when she was about to reach her limit and give her time to catch her breath.


    Yin Xun suddenly missed the days when Fang Yao trained her. At least she was not this exhausted. If Tan Ai would always be this merciless, then Yin Xun could only look for Fang Yao to train. At least Fang Yao would not wear her out this much.


    Tan Ai did not give Yin Xun any time to rest. Yin Xun¡¯s breathing had just stabilized when Tan Ai pulled her to continue training. In the end, Yin Xun was only released when she simply could not take it anymore.


    Yin Xun lay on the ground for a long time until she recovered a little strength. Then, she limped toward her room. It was still fine when she walked on flat ground. However, climbing the stairs was excruciating. It took her ages to climb up.


    Shu Yi looked at Yin Xun¡¯s sorry appearance and grinned, flashing a pitying expression.


    After Yin Xun returned to her room, Shu Yi patted Tan Ai¡¯s shoulder and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you go overboard? Look at how tired Miss Yin is. She will probably feel terrible tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°I am just speeding things up a little. If I don¡¯t be harsh now, then according to her character, do you think she will look for more opportunities to be together with the Young Master? If Young Master Fang can¡¯t bear to part with her, I will act as the bad guy and help Miss Yin to understand her feelings more clearly.¡± Tan Ai only showed a normal expression on her face when she was together with Shu Yi, and she also became more talkative..

 Chapter 434 - Chapter 434: Having Affairs

    Chapter 434: Having Affairs


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You usually act so cold, but you know so much.¡±


    Shu Yi smiled as she looked at Tan Ai. She raised a hand and touched the top of her head as she teased, ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that Miss Yin will misunderstand? She has always thought that you are cold and unreasonable. In reality, you are just shy.¡±


    Tan Ai¡¯s face turned slightly red. She immediately lowered her head and walked quickly to her room.


    It was her night off and Shu Yi was on duty.


    Looking at her back, Shu Yi smiled and shook her head. Then, she went to the surveillance room and prepared to do her duty.


    Yin Xun was the most vigilant girl she had ever met. The villa was filled with surveillance cameras inside and out, and there was even a private room to watch the surveillance camera footage.


    Actually, Shu Yi was very pleased with this situation. At least there were no blind spots around the villa. She only needed to sit in the house to monitor the safety of the villa and not go out to patrol.


    However, there was one thing that she did not understand. Yin Xun had installed a surveillance camera in her room, but it did not capture the bed. There were also none in the bathroom and cloakroom.


    Yin Xun had never avoided this kind of thing. Anyway, she usually changed her clothes in the cloakroom and never watched her sleeping posture. She was not worried that her bodyguards would see her.


    Yin Xun was really exhausted tonight. She dragged her heavy body and took a brief shower before coming out in a bathrobe.


    It was Yin Xun¡¯s habit to drink a glass of milk every night before going to bed. Although she was tired, she still carried a glass of milk to the balcony and planned to drink it while looking at the stars.


    The lights in Fang Yao¡¯s room were on and the curtains were not drawn. Yin Xun could see Fang Yao sitting on a chair and looking at his computer.


    She did not turn on the lights, so she did not have to worry about Fang Yao seeing her. Yin Xun took advantage of the darkness and started to stare at Fang Yao without restraint.


    The glass of milk had already been finished. Fang Yao was still sitting there and concentrating on his computer. It was impossible to tell what he was looking at.


    Yin Xun thought that perhaps he was dealing with official business. After all, he should have accumulated a lot of work because of his recent injuries.


    She stretched and looked up at the sky. Coincidentally, a shooting star flew past at this moment. Yin Xun quickly closed her eyes and made a wish. She only had one wish, and that was to build her own business empire soon. With money, she could do whatever she wanted.


    Swoosh!


    Just as she was making a wish, Yin Xun suddenly heard the window opposite her open. She quickly opened her eyes and saw Fang Yao standing opposite her. ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Do you always make a wish when you see a shooting star?¡± Fang Yao asked with a smile.


    Yin Xun was a little embarrassed. At this moment, she looked a little weird. Her two hands were tightly hugging the cup in front of her chest as if she was holding something sacred.


    When she saw Fang Yao, she quickly put down the cup and nodded at the same time. ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve seen a shooting star in this world. Perhaps making a wish will be effective, so I gave it a try. What about you? Have you finished your work?¡±


    ¡°Yes, 1 have a lot of work today. I just finished, so 1 didn¡¯t call you over for dinner earlier.¡± Fang Yao found Yin Xun¡¯s actions funny.


    He realized that other than being extremely rational at work, Yin Xun was usually very childish most of the time. He hoped that Yin Xun could continue to be like this in the future.


    ¡°The food today was delicious. Thank you. I didn¡¯t expect you to look out for me even though you¡¯re so busy with work. You¡¯re too kind,¡± Yin Xun said gratefully.


    After saying that, she turned around and placed the cup on the small table behind her. She turned around and continued to speak to Fang Yao. ¡°Thank you for the mapping company today. The collaboration went very smoothly. As expected of the largest digital company in the country. Although their accuracy is not high, it¡¯s much better than other companies.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. If you want a professional map, that company is the best choice. The only flaw is that Sha Gao, the president, is somewhat lacking. If his wife is in charge of the company now, I think the company will be better,¡± Fang Yao said evenly.


    Yin Xun raised his eyebrows. ¡°His wife? So this company isn¡¯t owned by Sha Gao?¡±


    Fang Yao explained, ¡°This company originally belonged to his wife. Ever since the two of them got married, his wife found a peaceful life as a housewife. She took care of her children every day and handed the company to him. Before Sha Gao got married, he had nothing. His parents were ordinary people and did their best to support him in his studies. That¡¯s why he had a good educational background and nothing else.¡±


    Yin Xun was a little surprised. ¡°Since he depends on his wife for everything, how could he have affairs so carelessly? Does his wife know about this?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s one of the reasons I¡¯m recommending this company to you. You should help his wife regain ownership of the company. In return, she¡¯ll surely give you the company¡¯s core technology..¡±

 Chapter 435 - Chapter 435: Ill Go With You

    Chapter 435: I¡¯ll Go With You


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao moved his upper body slightly and casually leaned against the balcony railing. He continued, ¡°His wife doesn¡¯t just know about these things. Because of these things, the two of them have already argued many times. Every time, it would cause a huge commotion, but in the end, things would be left unsettled.¡±


    ¡°Sha Gao relied on the fact that the company was his now and that his wife needed to rely on him. That¡¯s why he¡¯s not worried about her. No matter how his wife made a fuss, he ignored her. He even threatened his wife with a divorce. If they got divorced, his wife would be left with nothing.¡±


    ¡°Although the company used to belong to his wife, the moment his wife gave birth to a child and became a housewife, Sha Gao changed the company¡¯s legal owner and did some things to make the company his. At the same time, he transferred the asset ownership. Now, the couple¡¯s shared assets are almost zero.¡±


    Yin Xun could tell that Sha Gao was not a good person, but she did not expect him to be this rotten.


    He coaxed his strong wife to become a housewife at home and bear his children. After completely domesticating his wife, he took advantage of the fact that she has to rely on him. He began to expose his nature and did immoral things.


    However, there was one thing that Yin Xun did not understand. ¡°Isn¡¯t it necessary to go through legal procedures to change the legal owner? Did his wife agree to him doing this?¡±


    Since his wife was so outstanding, how could she not understand the effect of this transfer?


    Someone who could be praised by Fang Yao must be amazing. Since she was this capable, Sha Gao¡¯s wife should have realized that Sha Gao was trying to take the assets for himself. Why did she give the company to him so easily?


    Seeing Fang Yao looking at her, Yin Xun suddenly had a thought. She frowned and said, ¡°Don¡¯t tell me she did this because she really loves Sha Gao?¡±


    Fang Yao snapped his fingers. ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s the reason. Just like¡­¡± Fang Yao paused for a moment and continued, ¡°Her situation is a little similar to your sister¡¯s. She loves Sha Gao wholeheartedly. She believes whatever Sha Gao says. In the end, she lost her status and the company.¡±


    Recalling Sha Gao¡¯s appearance and character, Yin Xun instantly regretted drinking so much milk just now. At this moment, she felt a little nauseous. She might be unable to drink milk in the future.


    She paused for a moment before saying, ¡°What does she like about Sha Gao? Does she love him for being bald and pot-bellied, or does she love him for being lecherous and having affairs? Or does she like old people who don¡¯t bathe?¡±


    Now, she suddenly regretted working with Sha Gao. Whether a collaboration was good or not depended not only on the company¡¯s strength but also on the character of the person in charge.


    Si Fan was an example. His collaborators all fancied Blue Fox¡¯s strength back then. In the end, Blue Fox¡¯s great development prospects were ruined because of Si Fan. Now, many investors had already fled.


    Yin Xun cared about the ability of her partner. If it was someone like Sha Gao, she would rather not cooperate. At most, her company would try to handle this project alone.


    The only setback would be that she needed to invest a little more in the early stages. She would probably earn all the money back in the later stages. As for the extra help that Fang Yao had mentioned just now, Yin Xun did not think that a love-addled brain was worth helping after thinking of Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo even harmed her own family for Si Fan. Sha Gao¡¯s wife gave her whole company to her husband. Was there anything more ridiculous than this?


    Yin Xun felt that trying to save a love-struck fool would lead to a huge injustice. She would not be thanked and would only be blamed in the end.


    ¡°Hahaha¡­ The longer I¡¯ve known you, the more interesting you seem.¡± Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s angry question, Fang Yao was amused. It was a ridiculous question to ask, but it hit the nail on the head.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao resentfully. ¡°You can still laugh. If I had known that Sha Gao was such a person, I wouldn¡¯t have worked with him even if I had to put the project on hold.¡±


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun. Yin Xun did not turn on the lights on the balcony tonight. The surroundings were dim, and the lights outside were only one story high. They could not illuminate the second floor. It was so dark that Fang Yao could not see Yin Xun¡¯s face clearly.


    He narrowed his eyes and looked at Yin Xun. ¡°He¡¯s not important. What¡¯s important is the company¡¯s core technology. As long as you can get it, you won¡¯t have to work with other companies in the future.¡±


    This was an alluring offer. Yin Xun was immediately tempted.


    ¡°Go see Sha Gao another time.I¡¯ll go with you,¡± Fang Yao said in a low voice. He had received news that Sha Gao had the nerve to lay a hand on Yin Xun. He knew that Yin Xun¡¯s relationship with him was complicated, but think that such a thing would happen¡­ It seemed that he had to go personally.


    ¡°Sure,¡± Yin Xun agreed with a smile..

    Fang Yao was the biggest shareholder of Xintao, so no matter what project he wanted to participate in, that was his right.


    Yin Xun had no reason to stop him, nor did she plan to. With such a great Buddha personally presiding over it, the negotiations would definitely go smoothly.


    ¡°Oh, right,¡± Fang Yao suddenly said. ¡°Our company is organizing a trip for our employees. Do you have time? Do you want to go with us?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up and she asked, ¡°When? 1¡¯11 be able to take time off once Xintao comes online.¡±


    Recently, other than being busy with work, she also had to deal with Si Fan.


    She had been exhausted for ages. When she heard about a vacation, she was very tempted. She really should go out and relax.


    Fang Yao said, ¡°The time hasn¡¯t been set yet. Let me know in advance when you have the time. I¡¯ll tell you when I¡¯ve confirmed the time.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡±


    The two of them chatted for a while more. In the end, it was getting very late. Fang Yao saw that Yin Xun was yawning, so he let her go back to her room to sleep.


    After a dreamless night, Yin Xun was woken up by the alarm clock the next day.


    She stretched her body. Although she felt like she had been beaten half to death last night, the fatigue was all gone after a night¡¯s sleep. Now, she was refreshed.


    She walked out of the villa and saw Fang Yao standing outside. The two of them greeted each other.


    ¡°I¡¯ll jog with you today,¡± Fang Yao said.


    Yin Xun was slightly surprised. ¡°Are you alright now?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m almost recovered. There¡¯s no problem.¡± After Fang Yao finished speaking, he urged Yin Xun to start warming up. After they were ready, the two of them started running around the neighborhood.


    However, Fang Yao only jogged with Yin Xun for a while before he was pushed away by Yin Xun. Yin Xun told Fang Yao to slowly walk back and rest and just watch her finish her run.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and opened his mouth slightly. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say anything.


    Yin Xun did not notice his abnormality. Seeing that he was obedient and stopped jogging alongside her, she turned around and continued running.


    The summer morning was very cool. Smelling the fragrance of the plants in the air and listening to the birds chirping, Yin Xun felt that her mind was very clear.


    She had been exercising for a long time. She used to pant after a little jogging. Now, she could run around the neighborhood easily. She had improved a lot.


    Just as she was about to reach the entrance of the residential area, Yin Xun saw a familiar figure walking toward the villa area on the other side while carrying some things. Yin Xun quickened her pace and chased after the person. It was indeed Liu Ying.


    ¡°Yin Xun? You sure are working hard. You¡¯re even jogging daily.¡± Liu Ying did not expect to bump into Yin Xun and was a little surprised.


    Yin Xun maintained her running posture, but she slowed down and matched Liu Ying¡¯s pace.


    She smiled and looked at the things in Liu Ying¡¯s hands. ¡°No wonder 1 haven¡¯t seen you recently. You don¡¯t come to my house to cook anymore. So you have money to get your own food now.¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s expression did not look too good. She sighed and said, ¡°I guess so. My brother is not forcing me to get married now. He said that he would help me persuade my parents.¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t that good?¡± Yin Xun replied.


    After all, the reason why Ying had no money back then was because her family forced her to get married. This was also why she had been tricked into investing.


    ¡°Good?¡± Liu Ying glanced at Yin Xun and shook her head. ¡°What¡¯s good about it? There are conditions.¡±


    Seeing her depressed tone, Yin Xun immediately understood that Liu Ying¡¯s family had made things difficult for her again. Yin Xun fell silent and did not continue speaking.


    Liu Ying thought that Yin Xun would take the initiative to ask her, but after waiting for a long time, there was no response.


    She looked at Yin Xun bitterly and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t you ask me what¡¯s going on? I¡¯m your business partner. Don¡¯t you care about me?¡±


    ¡°If you want to say something, you¡¯ll naturally say it. If you don¡¯t want to say it, it¡¯s useless for me to ask.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Liu Ying said, ¡°You¡¯re quite understanding.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I also think so.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re infuriating. Forget it, it¡¯s not like you haven¡¯t been like this since day one. I¡¯ll just tell you.¡± Liu Ying¡¯s mood was extremely bad at this moment. She gritted her teeth and said, ¡°In exchange for the favor, he asked me to help him woo you.¡±


    Yin Xun,


    In a moment of carelessness, Yin Xun almost tripped over her feet. She staggered twice before she found her footing.


    She looked at Liu Ying in shock and asked again as if she did not hear her clearly. ¡°What did you just say?¡±


    ¡°My brother likes you. Ever since I left home, he has been sending people to keep an eye on me. When he found out that we lived together and became partners, he asked me to think of a way to help him woo you. He wants to marry you.¡± Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun and repeated every word.


    ¡°So, what do you think of my brother?¡±

 Chapter 437 - Chapter 437: Cancelling The Agreement

    Chapter 437: Cancelling The Agreement


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Nothing much. He¡¯s not really good-looking or capable. Not my type,¡± Yin Xun said bluntly.


    Liu Ying rolled her eyes. ¡°You¡¯re quite honest.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Honesty is a virtue.¡±


    Liu Ying looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh. She said in despair, ¡°I knew you wouldn¡¯t like him. Even I don¡¯t think he¡¯s great. Turning him down is expected, but my life will be difficult again in the future.¡±


    If Liu Cheng did not know that Liu Ying wanted to take the family assets, she could still be a little princess at home like before.


    Now, Liu Cheng felt she was a threat, so he would not let her stay at home just like that. His parents were biased from the start and always listened to Liu Cheng. Now, they were even more wary of her.


    Kinship should be a good thing. It was filled with love and sincerity, provided that no one talked about money.


    Ordinary families might fight to the death over tens of thousands, let alone a big family like theirs.


    Looking at Liu Ying¡¯s sad expression, although Yin Xun sympathized with her, she would not help her just because she was pitiful.


    However, she might be able to help Liu Ying from another angle.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. When we earn big money in the future, you can prove your worth. If you don¡¯t have money now, you can let me know any time. After all, you¡¯re my business partner. If I don¡¯t help you, who else can you turn to?¡± Yin Xun comforted her.


    Back then, under the influence of Yin Mo and Si Fan, Liu Ying had always thought that Yin Xun was a petty and annoying person. It was only when she was in genuine trouble and at her lowest point that she realized who was the good guy.


    Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun, feeling touched. Just as she was about to thank her, Yin Xun spoke again.


    ¡°For now, 1 can just deduct the amount from your dividends.¡±


    Liu Ying,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡®Yeah, 1 was overthinking things.¡¯


    ¡°It¡¯s understandable that you don¡¯t like my brother, but my brother likes you. You have to be careful in the future. Although he¡¯s not very capable, he can be very stubborn in certain aspects. A person who is less bright might not think about the consequences.¡± Although Liu Ying knew Yin Xun was capable, she could not help but give her a warning.


    She knew that Yin Xun was currently fighting against Si Fan. Si Fan was not easy to deal with. If Liu Cheng came to cause trouble in the midst of that, it would be hard to predict the outcome.


    Yin Xun smiled and thanked her. ¡°Thank you for the reminder. I¡¯ll be careful.¡±


    Liu Ying turned around in disdain. ¡°I¡¯m doing this for money. If something happens to you, I¡¯ll lose out.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled but did not say anything.


    After the morning run, Yin Xun bid farewell to Fang Yao, took a shower, and took a bite of food before driving to the company.


    Just as expected, Mary received a call from Si Xia in the afternoon. She had already returned to the Si residence, but Yin Mo was not around. After asking Si Fan about it, Si Xia said that she might not be coming back.


    Si Xia felt that since Yin Mo was no longer showing her face, there was no need for her to work with Mary anymore. Si Xia annulled her agreement with Mary, saying that she did not care anymore.


    Fortunately, Yin Xun had already given Mary a heads-up about this possibility. Although she was a little flustered, she did not let it show and responded according to Yin Xun¡¯s instructions.


    ¡°Miss Si, the most important thing when working together is sincerity. If you won¡¯t be honest, there¡¯s nothing 1 can do. I can¡¯t force you. As you wish, we¡¯ll cancel the collaboration. I hope you won¡¯t regret it. Remember, it¡¯s too late to regret things after they¡¯re over.¡± With that, she hung up before Si Xia could say anything.


    Yin Xun listened from the side. After Mary hung up the phone, Mary could no longer hold back her emotions. She covered her face and wept.


    She was crying not because she failed to save her brother, but because her parents had always asked to exchange her life for her brother¡¯s. He was the only son in their family. If her brother died, they would not have anyone to carry the lineage. Her parents even said that after they raised Mary, it was time for her to repay them.


    When Yin Xun heard Mary¡¯s story, she was slightly shocked.


    She knew that many parents favored boys over girls, thinking that girls were a liability and that boys were the heirs. However, she did not expect Mary¡¯s parents to feel so strongly about it that they did not even care if Mary lived or died.


    Parents like these were disappointing.


    Yin Xun comforted Mary. ¡°It¡¯s just the beginning. Don¡¯t be anxious. We need to follow the plan step by step. Do as I say and spread the news that Yin Mo is in prison. Let Si Fan know. However, you should change up the reason for her imprisonment.¡±


    Yin Mo had not gone back to report to Si Fan, but Si Fan had no intention of looking for her. He must have realized that Yin Mo had failed, so it was useless even if she came back


    If Si Fan learned that Yin Mo had succeeded but was imprisoned for some other reason, he would definitely be anxious to bring Yin Mo out..

 Chapter 438 - Chapter 438: Persuading Yin Mo

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mary was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Yin Xun inquiringly. After seeing Yin Xun smile and nod, Mary immediately understood what to do.


    ¡°1¡¯11 get right on it.¡± Mary wiped away her tears, gave Yin Xun a grateful smile, and hurried out of the office.


    ¡°Wait.¡± Yin Xun stopped Mary. ¡°Don¡¯t be in such a hurry. You can go in two hours. I need some time too.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡±


    Yin Xun watched Mary leave and glanced at her phone. She had to make preparations too.


    Yin Xun got up and went straight to the police station.


    Perhaps she was in a bad state of mind, but Yin Mo looked particularly haggard. She did not look like she had just entered prison a short while ago. Instead, she looked like she had been in prison for a few years.


    Yin Xun looked at her and felt that her appearance was inexplicably familiar. After thinking about it, Xing Cheng¡¯s figure suddenly appeared in her mind. Indeed, Yin Mo looked very similar to Xing Cheng back then.


    The moment Yin Mo saw Yin Xun, a smile immediately appeared on her face. She gasped, overjoyed, ¡°Sister, you came to see me. Are you here to get me out? I knew you were soft-hearted underneath your stubbornness. How could you really let your sister go to jail?


    ¡°Where¡¯s Dad? How is he now? Is he awake? What did the doctor say? Has he forgiven me? As I said, I didn¡¯t do anything irreparable. You guys wouldn¡¯t treat me like this¡­¡±


    Yin Xun interrupted her calmly. ¡°Yin A^o, both Mom and Dad know that I sent you to jail. They also agreed to banish you from the Yin family. From the moment you decided to give up on your parents for Si Fan, you¡¯re no longer a child of the Yin family. Don¡¯t have any expectations. We won¡¯t save you.¡±


    Yin Mo was still smiling. When she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, she froze.


    She opened her mouth a few times to defend herself, but when she met Yin Xun¡¯s cold eyes, she could not say anything.


    Seeing her reaction, Yin Xun continued, ¡°However, if you have any brains, I can help you send a message to Si Fan and ask him to get you out. Didn¡¯t you say that you really love him? In that case, are you willing to do something for him?¡±


    ¡°What is it?¡± Yin Mo was not in a hurry to agree. She knew that Si Fan and Yin Xun had always been at odds, and she was afraid that Yin Xun would ask for something that would hurt Si Fan.


    ¡°Actually, you know very well how Si Fan feels about you. If he knew that you¡¯ve been chased out of the Yin family, meaning that you no longer have the backing of the Yin family¡­ Adding on that you failed to sign the contract, based on his personality, it would be no surprise if he kicked you out without hesitation.¡±


    Yin Xun shrugged. ¡°If he knew about your current situation, he wouldn¡¯t try to save you at all. But if you¡¯re still useful to him, what do you think he¡¯ll do?¡±


    ¡°He will definitely find a way to help me,¡± Yin Mo said.


    Yin Mo was not really stupid. On the contrary, she was actually somewhat smart, but her train of thought was selfish and only about herself.


    If it did not harm her own interests, she would always persuade others to be magnanimous. If her interests were involved, however, she would immediately change.


    ¡°I¡¯m sure you know what to do next.¡± Yin Xun smiled and did not say anything else.


    In this world, there was no one who loved Si Fan more than Yin Mo. In order to be with him, Yin Mo would give up everything.


    If Yin Xun wanted her to do this, she only needed to make an opening for her, and Yin Mo would crawl into it herself. Sometimes, it was create the opposite effect if she said too much. It was better to stop at the right moment.


    As expected, Yin Mo lowered her gaze and thought for a moment. She raised her head and said, ¡°I know what to do.¡±


    Since she had already achieved her goal, there was no need for Yin Xun to stay any longer.


    ¡°Alright, good luck. 1 hope we won¡¯t see each other again in the future.¡± After saying that, Yin Xun turned around and was about to leave.


    ¡°Wait, Sister!¡± Yin Mo quickly stopped her and asked softly, ¡°How is Father now? I¡¯m really worried. I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m an unfilial daughter, but I really love Si Fan. I can¡¯t live without him. So, Sister, on account of us being sisters, please tell Father for me that I¡¯ve let him down, but I don¡¯t regret my actions. If you love someone, you have to do it without hesitation.¡±


    Yin Xun resisted the urge to turn around and glare at Yin Mo. She was utterly speechless.


    Yin Mo always made herself look like a kind little flower. In reality, she was more infuriating than anyone else. If Yin Xun really told Yin Cheng about this, Yin Cheng would definitely be sent to the emergency room again.


    She rejected the request coldly. ¡°I don¡¯t care..¡±

 Chapter 439 - Chapter 439: Si Fan Came To Save Yin Mo

    Chapter 439: Si Fan Came To Save Yin Mo


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Seeing that Yin Xun really would not entertain her, Yin Mo¡¯s eyes instantly turned red, and she started running her mouth without thinking. ¡°Sister, this outcome is exactly what you wanted, right? From now on, you¡¯re the sole daughter of the Yin family, and you can obtain all their love!¡±


    Yin Xun did not stop walking. She did not want to waste her breath on Yin Mo, so she left without delay.


    As she walked to the entrance of the police station, Yin Xun took out her phone and called Mary, telling her that she could start now.


    Mary quickly spread the news as instructed. Just as Yin Xun expected, when Si Fan found out that Yin Mo was arrested for leaking company secrets and not for stealing the seal, he immediately went to look for Yin Mo.


    Although Blue Fox had been experiencing a lot of problems recently and his reputation in many people¡¯s hearts was not as great as before, there were still some good allies who sincerely wanted to help him. As long as he asked for a favor, it should be easy to get Yin Mo out.


    However, Si Fan did not want to let Yin Mo out so soon. He first went to see Yin Mo personally.


    Yin Mo was overjoyed to see Si Fan. Her weary face regained some color. She thought that Yin Xun kept her word and had called Si Fan over.


    ¡°Fan, 1 knew you wouldn¡¯t give up on me¡­¡± Yin Mo sobbed.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, are you alright?¡± At this moment, Si Fan only had the contract on his mind. He gave Yin Mo a perfunctory look of concern before revealing his true motive for coming. ¡°Did you sign the contract 1 gave you?¡±


    After hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, the smile on Yin Mo¡¯s face slowly disappeared. She lowered her head and did not answer.


    Looking at the silent Yin Mo, Si Fan suddenly became impatient. He forced himself to soften his tone. ¡°Mo¡¯er, I know you¡¯ve suffered a lot, but you don¡¯t have to worry. As long as you succeed this time, I¡¯ll help you release all your frustrations in the future. Tell me quickly, did you sign the contract?¡±


    Yin Mo slowly lifted her head and raised the corners of her mouth. ¡°It was a success.¡±


    Hearing this, Si Fan heaved a sigh of relief. He sneered and said, ¡°Well done. As long as we have this contract, we won¡¯t have to worry about Yin Xun anymore.¡± He said beneath his breath, ¡°You¡¯re still too inexperienced to fight me. Yin Xun. Your happy days are over now. 1¡¯11 make you kneel in front of me to apologize. 1¡¯11 make you regret turning down my offer to merge Xintao and Blue Fox.¡± Si Fan¡¯s voice was very soft, but the prison phone was very sensitive. Yin Mo, who was in the room opposite, still heard these words.


    The expression in her eyes changed. She bit her lip gently and looked at Si Fan quietly.


    Noticing that he had failed to keep his emotions in check, Si Fan straightened his expression and said to Yin Mo, ¡°Mo¡¯er, you¡¯re my girlfriend. I won¡¯t let anyone bully you, not even your family.


    ¡°Tell me where the two contracts are. As long as I have them, I can turn Blue Fox into a giant in the industry and suppress your sister¡¯s Xintao. With that, you can vent your frustrations however you want. Show them all that you made the right choice. Let them know the consequences of bullying you.¡±


    Si Fan said a lot of things, but Yin Mo just listened quietly and did not interrupt.


    When Si Fan was done, Yin Mo said, ¡°The contract was hidden before I was arrested. I¡¯m the only one who knows where it is. Fan, if you want it, please get me out.¡±


    ¡°Are you negotiating with me?¡± Si Fan looked at Yin Mo in surprise. In the next second, his expression immediately darkened. ¡°Mo¡¯er, what do you mean by that? Do you not trust me?¡±


    Yin Mo shook her head. ¡°No, I trust you very much. It¡¯s just that I don¡¯t want to stay here a moment longer. I want to be with you all the time. Fan, just let me out of here, and I¡¯ll get you everything. Don¡¯t you want me to get out of prison?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve already explained that I¡¯ll pick you up the day I succeed. It¡¯s dangerous outside now, and 1 don¡¯t want you to get caught up in those bad scenes. Mo¡¯er, don¡¯t you trust me? Don¡¯t forget that I¡¯m doing this so that we can be together in the future. After I finish things with Blue Fox, we¡¯ll get engaged.¡± Si Fan was getting more and more impatient. He had been enduring it just to get the contract.


    Since Yin Mo loved him, he believed that as long as he coaxed her, she would hand over the contract swiftly. However, he did not expect Yin Mo would suddenly start negotiating terms after being imprisoned.


    Originally, he planned to leave Yin Mo alone after he got the contract from her. By then, Blue Fox would have something on Xintao and have a large sum of money as collateral from the Yin Corporation. They would quickly become the largest company in the country.


    From the looks of it, if he wanted the contract, he had to release Yin Mo. However, he really did not want to see Yin Mo¡¯s face all the time in the future..

 Chapter 440 - Chapter 440: Lets Get Married

    He wanted to give it another try. Yin Mo was usually very gullible. There was no way she would become smart all of a sudden.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, don¡¯t you love me anymore? If you love me, shouldn¡¯t you believe me unconditionally?¡± His earlier words had no effect. This time, Si Fan tried taking the moral high ground for love.


    Yin Mo quickly said, ¡°Of course I love you. I¡¯m doing this for you and¡­¡±


    Yin Mo paused and almost let slip the secret. When she realized it, she quickly changed her words. ¡°I already did so much for you. I knew that the contents of the contract are actually disadvantageous to the Yin family, but for you, I am willing to take this risk. I am aware of this.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ve seen both contracts?¡± Si Fan¡¯s expression became weird.


    Yin Mo said, ¡°Yes.¡± It was actually Yin Xun who read the contract and told her. Yin Mo essentially had seen it.


    Si Fan stopped talking. At this moment, he was thinking about how to explain this.


    He was not afraid that Yin Mo would be upset, nor was he afraid that Yin Mo would hate him because of this. He was worried that Yin Mo would not give him the contract because she found out the truth.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Mo spoke again. ¡°1 don¡¯t care about this. Fan, you know best how I feel about you. I support all your decisions.¡±


    Si Fan was shocked by Yin Mo¡¯s words. He was not sure if Yin Mo was serious or joking. He asked again in confusion, ¡°Are you serious?¡±


    Yin Mo nodded heavily.


    ¡°Then tell me where the contract is now. I¡¯ll take the contract to do the company first, okay?¡± Si Fan tried his luck again.


    Yin Mo shook her head firmly. ¡°No.¡±


    Si Fan,¡±¡­¡±


    Why did it feel like Yin Mo was becoming more and more difficult to deal with? However, it was not a big problem. He could just let her go first. She could still be useful later, after all.


    If Yin Mo was no longer useful, he would just think of a way to chase her away.


    ¡°Alright, then wait for my news.¡± Seeing that he could not get the contract directly, Si Fan could only agree to Yin Mo¡¯s request.


    However, if he wanted to take Yin Mo out of prison, he needed to use some of his connections. After all, this matter was a little big.


    Before coming here, Si Fan had already greeted everyone and given them some ¡°gifts¡±. Before long, he left the police station with Yin Mo.


    As soon as they reached the entrance of the police station, Si Fan could not wait to get the two contracts. He looked at Yin Mo affectionately and said, ¡°Mo¡¯er, look, I¡¯ve already gotten you out. Can you tell me where the contracts are now?¡±


    Looking at Si Fan¡¯s expectant gaze, Yin Mo¡¯s heart was in turmoil. Actually, she lied to Si Fan. She had already been arrested at the police station, so how could she still have the contracts?


    Thinking of Si Fan¡¯s reaction after knowing the truth, Yin Mo pinched the corner of her shirt and secretly made a decision in her heart.


    Since things had already developed to this point, she might as well go all the way. Everyone thought her love was misplaced, so she could use this opportunity to let them see that her choice was not wrong.


    She took a deep breath and slowly said under Si Fan¡¯s expectant gaze, ¡°Fan, let¡¯s get married.¡±


    Si Fan¡¯s expression changed slightly, and his grip on Yin Mo¡¯s shoulder slowly loosened.


    Disappointed, he said, ¡°Mo¡¯er, I thought you were sincere to me. I never doubted anything you said. And you should know how I treated you in the past.


    I didn¡¯t think you would threaten me with marriage when i need your help the most. Mo¡¯er, you know that 1 hate being threatened.¡±


    ¡°Fan, it¡¯s not like that! I know you¡¯re doing all this for me. You want to marry me when you¡¯re at your strongest and get my family¡¯s approval. You want to give me the grandest wedding in the world. You want to give me the best life. You want all the other girls to envy me¡­¡±


    Yin Mo took a step forward and hugged Si Fan¡¯s waist. She said, ¡°But you know that this is not what I want. 1 just want to marry you and face all the difficulties together. I hate money. Money can only bring material enjoyment, but it can¡¯t give people spiritual comfort. Fan, no matter what your situation is, as long as I¡¯m with you, I¡¯ll be happy.¡±


    At this moment, Yin Mo¡¯s entire body was pressed against Si Fan¡¯s body and she could not see Si Fan¡¯s expression.


    A trace of disgust flashed across Si Fan¡¯s face, but he quickly suppressed it and turned it into a look of warmth.


    He raised his hand and gently caressed the top of Yin Mo¡¯s head. He said gently, ¡°Then can you give me the contract first?I¡¯ll hold a wedding ceremony with you immediately after I get the contract. It¡¯ll be the greatest wedding you can imagine.¡±


    Anyway, just holding a ceremony would not make them a legal couple. Si Fan felt that this promise was enough to fool Yin Mo.


    However, he was once again surprised by Yin Mo¡¯s insistence. She shook her head and said, ¡°No, I don¡¯t want a wedding ceremony. Let¡¯s go get our marriage certificate first..¡±

 Chapter 441 - Chapter 441: No Household Register

    This time, Si Fan could not take it anymore. He pushed Yin Mo away and snapped, ¡°Yin Mo, what are you after? Are you deliberately making things difficult for me?¡±


    Yin Mo did not understand why Si Fan was suddenly angry. She asked in confusion, ¡°Fan, it¡¯s no trouble to get a marriage certificate. It¡¯ll be over in no time. Why are you so upset? Don¡¯t you want to marry me?¡±


    Si Fan looked at Yin Mo. He knew that Yin Mo only had one goal in her heart now. She wanted to marry him. No matter what else he said, it was useless. It seemed like he could only agree to her request.


    He hated being threatened more than anything. No matter who the other party was, since Yin Mo dared to force his hand like this, he would punish her after he got the contract. He would make Yin Mo know that the marriage she got by threatening him would only be suffering and not blissful.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Si Fan agreed stiffly.


    ¡°Fan, I knew that you truly love me. Don¡¯t worry, after we get our marriage certificate, I¡¯ll give you the contract.¡± Hearing Si Fan agree, Yin Mo finally felt relieved.


    As long as the two of them got married, it would be fine even if Si Fan found out that she was lying to him. After getting their marriage certificate, there was no turning back.


    As for the wedding ceremony, they were fine without those formalities. Of course, she would be happier if she could have one in the end. She smiled and grabbed Si Fan¡¯s hand. Then, she raised her head and gently closed her eyes.


    Normally, a man would follow up a proposal with a kiss. Although she and Si Fan did not go through a proper proposal, since they had already confirmed that they were getting married, they should still have a ritual kiss.


    Si Fan lowered his head. He knew what Yin Mo wanted, but when he looked at Yin Mo¡¯s pale and weary face, he was not in the mood at all.


    Even if it was just a kiss, it would have to wait until Yin Mo had dressed herself up properly.


    He felt that it was extremely disrespectful for a woman to not have makeup, especially with Yin Mo¡¯s current disheveled state. He felt nauseous just looking at it.


    Si Fan had many beauties around him. If they wanted to get intimate with him, they would still have to think about their actions. That should apply to Yin Mo too, who Si Fan was getting tired of looking at.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, let¡¯s go back first. There are still many things for us to deal with.¡± Si Fan pushed Yin Mo away and walked to the car. He got into the car without even looking at Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo stomped her foot lightly. Although she was a little grudging, she could not retort.


    Thinking that she would be able to marry Si Fan soon, she was in a good mood again. As long as the two of them registered their marriage, everything would take a turn a turn for the better.


    ¡°President Si, are we going to Blue Fox or the Si residence?¡± the driver asked Si Fan.


    Si Fan thought about it and turned to look at Yin Mo.


    Since Yin Mo said that she would only give him the contract after they registered their marriage, it was better to settle this as soon as possible and avoid any delays.


    ¡°Go to¡­¡± Just as she was about to name the Civil Affairs Bureau, she suddenly remembered that she still needed a household register to register her marriage.


    She could have just asked someone to send it over, but Yin Mo had just come out of prison moments ago. She had to take out her household register first.


    However, the Yin family had never supported their marriage. If she bluntly asked for it, her family would definitely not hand it over easily.


    Si Fan asked Yin Mo, ¡°Mo¡¯er, can you get your household register now?¡±


    ¡°No.¡± Yin Mo shook her head. Now that she had cut ties with her parents, if she went back, they would definitely refuse her the household register.


    However, if she explained all that, Si Fan would soon know the truth, so she kept her answer short.


    Si Fan frowned. ¡°Since we can¡¯t get the household register, we can¡¯t get the marriage certificate. Mo¡¯er, give me the contract first. When the time is right, 1 will hold a wedding that will satisfy you. It¡¯s not that 1 don¡¯t want to get married¡ªwe just can¡¯t right now.¡±


    Si Fan thought that Yin Mo had no reason to reject him anymore.


    He was secretly delighted, but to his surprise, Yin Mo said slowly, ¡°Actually, you don¡¯t need a household register to get married. You just need to print out a residence document.¡±


    Si Fan,¡±¡­¡±


    He looked at Yin Mo in shock, as if he was looking at a stranger. He did not expect Yin Mo, who used to be a yes-man who did whatever she was told, to have such a scheming side!


    Of course, he knew that he did not really have to get the household register to get married. He just wanted to use this as an excuse to not marry Yin Mo.


    From the looks of it, Yin Mo was determined to marry him and had already calculated all kinds of unexpected situations..

    Chapter 442:1 Hate Her


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Alright, since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s get married right now.¡± Si Fan suppressed his anger and tried his best to look calm.


    ¡°To the Civil Affairs Bureau,¡± he said grimly.


    ¡°Yes, President Si.¡±


    ¡°No, go back to the Si Residence!¡± Yin Mo immediately stopped the driver.


    Si Fan frowned, the displeasure on his face becoming more and more obvious. He asked, ¡°Didn¡¯t you say you wanted to get married? The sooner the better. Why don¡¯t you go straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau?¡±


    Yin Mo reached out to touch her face. Not only was she not wearing makeup, but even her skin had become very rough. ¡°Fan, I¡¯ve been looking forward to this day for a long time. Although we¡¯re only getting our marriage certificate, we still have to take our identification photos. I¡¯m not in a good state now. I¡¯m going back to tidy myself up and put on makeup. I want to marry you in my most beautiful state.¡±


    She thought about how she had been in a relationship with Si Fan for many years. Every time they were about to get engaged, all kinds of things would interrupt their plans. This time, things were going smoothly. She was not looking for an engagement, but getting married directly. Although she did not have the blessings of her family, she still felt very happy.


    Yin Mo looked at Si Fan with longing in her eyes. From her perspective, she even thought that the way Si Fan looked at her was also filled with love.


    ¡°Alright, we¡¯ll do as you say. However, just in case, we still have to register our marriage as soon as possible,¡± Si Fan said perfunctorily. He leaned back and closed his eyes to get some rest. He did not want to continue talking to Yin Mo.


    He never thought he would be tricked by Yin Mo one day. Most importantly, he could not even refuse her demands.


    At this moment, he was extremely frustrated. He could not continue talking to Yin Mo. Yin Mo seemed to have been possessed. She was like a completely different person from before.


    He was afraid that if he could not control himself, he would strangle Yin Mo to death.


    The driver received the instructions and quickly drove toward the Si residence. Yin Mo originally wanted to tell Si Fan about her grievances, but seeing that Si Fan had his eyes closed and was not reacting, she thought that he had fallen asleep and stopped talking. Instead, she leaned against the car window and looked at the scenery outside.


    The two of them returned to the Si residence in silence.


    The driver opened the car door for Si Fan and respectfully invited him out of the car, but he did not even look at Yin Mo.


    Yin Mo was waiting for the driver to open her door, but seeing that it was not happening, she got out of the car herself resentfully.


    As soon as she got out of the car, Yin Mo saw a fashionable woman dressed in gorgeous clothes walking over quickly. As she walked, she called out, ¡°Brother Si Fan.¡±


    She knew that there were many women who liked Si Fan. She did not know which family¡¯s young lady had come to woo Si Fan this time. Her expression instantly turned sullen.


    Only when the woman got closer did she realize it was Si Xia.


    Perhaps it was because she was just discharged from the hospital, but Si Xia was wearing heavy makeup and dressed completely differently from when she was in the hospital. Even her hairstyle was different, so Yin Mo did not recognize her at first glance.


    ¡°Xiaxia, you¡¯re discharged!¡± When she saw that it was Xiaxia, Yin Mo immediately smiled happily.


    Si Xia glanced at Yin Mo coldly before instructing the servants who were working nearby, ¡°You guys, chase her out. My house doesn¡¯t welcome her!¡±


    When the servants heard Si Xia¡¯s words, they only looked toward her and did not even react. They lowered their heads and continued to work silently.


    ¡°Fan¡­¡± Yin Mo saw Si Xia¡¯s fierce expression and quickly moved to Si Fan¡¯s side. She hugged his arm tightly and hid behind him as she watched Si Xia. ¡°What if Xiaxia doesn¡¯t want me here?¡±


    ¡°You b*tch, let go of my brother!¡± Si Xia¡¯s eyes were stinging from seeing Yin Mo¡¯s actions. She quickly rushed over and grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s hand with all her strength, trying to push her away from Si Fan. However, her body had just recovered and she did not have much strength. She could not make Yin Mo budge.


    Si Xia was anxious. She looked at the servants angrily and shouted, ¡°Are you deaf? Didn¡¯t you hear what I said? Chase this b*tch out!¡±


    No matter how she shouted orders, the servants did not react.


    ¡°Xiaxia, stop fooling around. Mo¡¯er just came back. She¡¯s very tired now. Let her go inside and rest first, okay?¡± Si Fan pushed Yin Mo¡¯s hand away and touched Si Xia¡¯s head.


    ¡°Brother, 1 don¡¯t want to see her or live with her. 1 already see her every day. Just thinking about it makes me uncomfortable. Brother, you know 1 hate her,¡± Si Xia said exasperatedly.


    When Yin Mo saw this, she grabbed Si Fan¡¯s arm again and said aggrievedly, ¡°Fan, Xiaxia¡¯s health isn¡¯t good. She shouldn¡¯t get angry. Since she doesn¡¯t like me, 1¡¯11 leave for now. We¡¯ll talk about the marriage later. Come and find me when you have time.¡±


    With that, she let go of Si Fan and turned to leave..

 Chapter 443 - Chapter 443: My Beloved Sister

    Chapter 443: My Beloved Sister


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Fan reacted quickly and grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s arm. ¡°Mo¡¯er, Xiaxia is still young and insensible. Please don¡¯t take it to heart.¡± He then turned to Si Xia. ¡°Xiaxia, why are you so disobedient? Even if Mo¡¯er stays here, it won¡¯t affect you.¡± ¡°Marriage? What marriage? Who¡¯s getting married to who? What¡¯s all this?¡± Si Xia did not pay attention to what Si Fan was saying. His mind was filled with what Yin Mo had just said a moment ago.


    A mixture of fear and anger quickly spread through her entire brain. She felt her ears buzzing.


    Si Fan¡¯s expression darkened. He glared at Yin Mo and said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing, Mo¡¯er. Go in and rest.¡±


    With that, he pulled Yin Mo into the house.


    ¡°No!¡± Si Xia stretched out her arms and blocked their path. With reddened eyes, she said, ¡°You have to make things clear right now. If you don¡¯t, no one can enter the house! This is my home. I won¡¯t allow someone I hate to live with me!¡±


    Yin Mo took a step forward and walked in front of Si Xia. She smiled ingratiatingly and said, ¡°Xiaxia, we have no reason to hide it from you. It¡¯s like this. Your brother and I have been in love for many years and we plan to get our marriage certificate in a few days. I know that you¡¯re worried; I¡¯m about to become your sister-in-law. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll make sure to treat you well, as though you¡¯re my own sister.¡±


    ¡°Who wants you as a sister-in-law!¡± Si Xia burst into tears. ¡°So you two have already colluded. You didn¡¯t even tell me about something as important as marriage. Do you not treat me as a family?! Also, why did the servants at home change? I don¡¯t know any of them now, and they don¡¯t listen to me. I¡¯m clearly the owner of this house, but my status isn¡¯t even as high as Yin Mo¡¯s.


    ¡°I know. You want to chase me out, right? Because I¡¯m a sick patient. You don¡¯t like me, but Brother, don¡¯t forget that you promised my parents to take care of me for the rest of my life. If you go back on your word, you won¡¯t be my brother anymore! We¡¯ll part ways and have nothing to do with each other ever again!¡±


    When Si Fan heard that Si Xia threatening to sever ties, his face instantly darkened.


    One person like Yin Mo was enough for him; now there was Si Xia too. He could already foresee that he would not have a peaceful life in the future.


    He wanted to explain the situation to Si Xia, but Yin Mo was standing right there, so he could not say it directly.


    He had no choice but to comfort Si Xia in a gentle voice. ¡°Xiaxia, what are you talking about? Why would 1 dislike you? I changed the servants because 1 felt they were getting old and should retire. These servants are relatively young, so they can get things done better. I will take care of you for the rest of your life. No matter who comes to our place, things won¡¯t change. Everything I do has a reason. Be a good girl and stop making a fuss. Otherwise, I will be in a difficult position.¡±


    Si Fan turned around and ordered the servants coldly, ¡°From now on, the Young Mistress¡¯s words are my words. If I learn that someone disobeys her, they can get lost. Do you hear me?¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Everyone quickly replied.


    Si Fan continued to comfort Si Xia. ¡°I¡¯ve been very busy recently and can¡¯t take care of you all the time. Mo¡¯er can look after you here, so I¡¯ll be much more at ease. Xiaxia, you don¡¯t want me to always be distracted by work, right? I¡¯ll be very upset if anything happens to you. Xiaxia, to make me feel more at ease, can you stop causing trouble?¡±


    ¡°Brother, did you really let Yin Mo stay here because you were worried about me?¡± Si Xia finally stopped crying and asked Si Fan.


    Si Fan nodded. ¡°Of course. You¡¯re my most beloved sister.¡±


    He reached out and gently scratched Si Xia¡¯s nose, his tone full of indulgence.


    Si Xia was finally satisfied with his answer and she looked at Yin Mo provocatively.


    Yin Mo, who was watching Si Fan and Si Xia talking, looked slightly downcast. She wanted to speak but did not know what to say. She was the outsider in this family.


    After thinking about it, Yin Mo decided to remain silent. She knew that Si Xia hated her, but it did not matter. As long as Si Fan protected her, it was enough.


    With Si Fan¡¯s assurance, Si Xia finally stopped making a fuss. Instead, she hugged Si Fan¡¯s arm intimately and walked into the house with him. ¡°Brother, when you went out, I drew a painting for you. I¡¯ll show it to you.¡±


    Si Fan smiled and said, ¡°Alright, let¡¯s see how my sister¡¯s drawing skills are now.¡±


    Before entering the house, Si Fan turned around and gave Yin Mo a look. The next moment, he went in with Si Xia.


    After Yin Mo saw the two of them enter the house, she looked up at the luxurious villa in front of her..

 Chapter 444 - Chapter 444: Could Not Take It Anymore

    Chapter 444: Could Not Take It Anymore


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This place used to be Si Fan and Si Xia¡¯s home, but it would soon become her home as well.


    Although Yin Mo had lost the home she grew up in, she had a new home with her lover. Thinking about it carefully, it was actually not a loss.


    She thought that she had considered everything thoroughly. Her parents had Yin Xun and Yin Rui to take care of them, so she did not have to worry about their well-being.


    Si Fan only had Si Xia, who was still a sick patient. In comparison, Si Fan needed her more. From now on, she would not leave Si Fan no matter what happened.


    After registering their marriage, Yin Mo wanted to bring Si Fan back to the Yin family and tell them that her choice was not wrong.


    Yin Mo raised her head and blocked the blinding sunlight with her hand. At this moment, the sky was cloudless and blue. Just like her heart at this moment, it was incredibly clear.


    Although Si Xia often pestered Si Fan, she was not worried about the future at all. After all, this was just the beginning. There was still a long way to go for them. In the future, Yin Mo would spend a lot of time with Si Fan, so she did not need to be worried about the present.


    Yin Mo smiled sweetly and followed him into the house.


    Another two days passed. During this period, Si Fan kept urging Yin Mo to go and get the marriage certificate with him, but Yin Mo kept finding all kinds of excuses to stall for time.


    Si Fan was angry, but for the sake of his final goal, he could only endure his temper and wait with Yin Mo.


    He could not lose his temper with Yin Mo. He could not let Yin Mo realize that he did not love her at all. He had to act every day and show all kinds of affection for Yin Mo. This took a lot of energy and he was very tired.


    As a result, his attitude toward Si Xia was not as nice as before. Si Xia was especially sensitive about this matter. When she saw Si Fan hanging around Yin Mo every day, she was very upset, but there was nothing she could do about it.


    What made her feel even worse was that Si Fan had actually taken the initiative to beg Yin Mo to finalize their marriage. Si Fan had previously told her that they were just putting on an act. Si Fan said he did not actually like Yin Mo, but now, everything seemed to have changed.


    In her eyes, Si Fan had been bewitched by Yin Mo. Her brother circled around Yin Mo all day long. He would follow everything she asked.


    Si Fan had never treated her like this before. Si Xia was out of her mind with jealousy, but every time she lost her temper, Si Fan would downplay her tantrum, and Yin Mo would come out at this time to comfort Si Fan.


    Comparing the two of them made Si Xia even more at a loss for what to do.


    After enduring it for two days, Si Xia could not take it anymore. She thought of Mary, who claimed she had a method to chase Yin Mo away from Si Fan. It seemed like she could only look for her.


    When Si Xia was about to call Mary, Mary was discussing the preparations for Rhythm Video with Yin Xun.


    For Mark¡¯s sake, Xintao could not go online yet. It would be terrible if Si Fan was prompted to do something irreversible.


    Since Xintao could not go online, Yin Xun could only focus on another project Rhythm Video.


    Si Fan was focusing all his attention on Xintao, giving Yin Xun the chance to go online with Rhythm¡¯s short video platform. Now, the software was successfully completed.


    Thanks to Mi Jin¡¯s help, there were basically no bugs in Rhythm Video¡¯s software. It could be released for beta testing at any time.


    ¡°Since everything is ready, let¡¯s go online with the closed beta function first. We¡¯ll issue an announcement to the bloggers who register their accounts during the closed beta stage. As long as they can guarantee weekly video updates, regardless of type, they will eventually be certified free of charge. At the same time, we¡¯ll increase the price of the videos. We¡¯ll also give out bonuses according to the number of fans they have by the deadline,¡± Yin Xun said after looking at the report submitted by Mary.


    After such a long time of preparation, the few internally contracted bloggers were now capable of handling this business. They would make videos based on what they were good at. As for filming and scripting, that would be handed over to professionals. The bloggers only needed to appear on-screen.


    In addition to these people, there were also bloggers who needed to edit various movies and dramas. However, this could wait until everything was officially released. Making original videos would bring more benefits to the platform.


    Originally, Yin Xun wanted to run advertisements before they went online. However, the advertisers did not think highly of the short video content. Yin Xun did not succeed in getting advertisements.


    Mary felt that Yin Xun had already laid the foundation with Xintao. As long as she used Xintao¡¯s name, there would definitely be a large number of advertisers queuing up.


    However, Yin Xun did not want to do that.


    Yin Xun said to Mary, ¡°No matter what you do, you can¡¯t be too flashy before things stabilize. That will only attract jealousy and destruction.¡±


    Right now, she was only dealing with Blue Fox. If Rhythm was targeted again, Si Fan would join forces with other video companies to challenge her. Even if she had the support of the Fang and Qu families, it would not be safe enough.


    Besides, they only supported her financially and would not get involved with anything else..

 Chapter 445 - Chapter 445: Si Xia Gives In

    Chapter 445: Si Xia Gives In


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Because of this, Yin Xun was not worried about funding at all. It did not matter if there were advertisements or not.


    Mary could not understand what was going on. She was puzzled as she asked, ¡°But President Yin, then why did you make such a big fuss when Xintao first opened for business? You should have known at that time that Blue Fox would definitely not overlook us.¡±


    ¡°At that time, Blue Fox was the only online shopping company in the country. Even if Blue Fox were to challenge us, they would only be so strong. However, there are many video platforms. There are more than ten of them. The reason they could develop peacefully until now was that they had reached some kind of agreement. Once Rhythm shows up, it will definitely break the existing balance. If they sense danger, they will definitely join forces to deal with us. This is not something that Blue Fox can compare to,¡± Yin Xun explained.


    ¡°I see. Then 1 know what we should do.¡± Mary understood what Yin Xun meant. She said goodbye to Yin Xun and turned to walk out of the office, ready to get to work.


    However, just as she reached the door, her phone rang.


    She took out her phone, and when she saw that the caller ID was Si Xia, she hurriedly turned around to look for Yin Xun to ask for her opinion.


    ¡°Looks like she can¡¯t take it anymore. I didn¡¯t expect her to last for two days. Accept the call. Just follow what 1 taught you.¡± Yin Xun nodded and gestured for Mary to answer.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Mary pressed the answer button and activated the external speaker function.


    Mary said coldly, ¡°Miss Si Xia, you already canceled our collaboration. Why are you calling me?¡±


    Si Xia¡¯s voice was a little hoarse and she sounded a little choked. She lowered her voice and said, ¡°Mary, I regret my decision. Let¡¯s continue working together. 1 know where your brother is locked up. As long as you can help me chase Yin Mo away, 1¡¯11 immediately release your brother.¡±


    Mary sneered and said, ¡°Alright, I can help you chase Yin Mo away, but as a condition, you have to release my brother first. Only then will 1 help you.¡± ¡°Do you not care about saving your brother anymore? Aren¡¯t you worried about him?¡± Si Xia wanted to make Mary get rid of Yin Mo away first. In that case, even if she refused to release Mark, Mary would not be able to do anything to her.


    She was surprised when Mary asked her to let Mark go first.


    Mary should be the one who was more anxious. Why did it feel like their positions were changed? Now, Si Xia was the desperate one while Mary did not seem worried at all.


    Mary gave a short laugh and said, ¡°Miss Si Xia, you must not have figured it out yet. I already said that I don¡¯t care if you¡¯ll help me or not. Anyway, I have the evidence in my hands, and I¡¯m already prepared to fight Si Fan with my life on the line. Of course, if you¡¯re sincere in cooperating with me, I will consider it. You don¡¯t have to doubt my words. You can find out how I¡¯m doing at home with a simple investigation. All my current misfortune is because of my younger brother. I won¡¯t be sad if he dies.¡±


    Si Xia asked, ¡°But if I let your brother go, what if you go back on your word and refuse to help me?¡±


    ¡°Miss Si, I¡¯m not like you. I won¡¯t go back on my word. Besides, I hate Yin Mo as much as you do. As they say, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. You don¡¯t have to be wary of me. If I go back on my word, you can take this recording of our conversation to my boss, Yin Xun. She can easily blacklist me in the industry.¡± When she said this, Mary looked at Yin Xun guiltily.


    ¡°Alright, wait for my news.¡± Si Xia seemed to have made up her mind. Although she was unwilling, she still agreed to the conditions in the end.


    After saying that, Si Xia hung up.


    Mary was still a little worried, and she asked Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, will Si Xia really release my younger brother from Si Fan?¡±


    She had a feeling that Si Fan was not the kind of person who would give up his chance to make a comeback just because his sister asked him to.


    ¡°Si Xia knows everything about Si Fan. As long as she puts her mind to it, she can get it done.¡± Yin Mo comforted her.


    Mary thanked her gratefully. ¡°President Yin, it is all thanks to you. I simply cannot thank you enough. In the future, 1 will use my actions to prove my gratitude!¡±


    ¡°Then do your best to manage the Rhythm Video. You¡¯ll be in charge of this project.¡± Yin Xun said calmly, not taking this matter to heart at all.


    Mary¡¯s eyes turned red as she tried to keep her eyes open. ¡°Yes!¡± she said.


    Nothing unexpected happened after that. It was a peaceful day until it was time to get off work.


    Yin Xun stretched and decided to go home after work. She never worked overtime herself, nor did she force her employees to work overtime. As long as everyone completed their tasks, it was fine.


    She drove toward the suburban villa. When she passed by the familiar flower and bird market, Yin Xun instinctively slowed down..

 Chapter 446 - Chapter 446: Shouldnt Keep His Hopes Up

    Chapter 446: Shouldn¡¯t Keep His Hopes Up


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After parking the car at the entrance of the flower and bird market, Yin Xun walked in. She was a regular customer here and bought a lot every time. As soon as she entered, she could hear the shopkeepers greeting her warmly.


    ¡°Miss Yin, you¡¯re here again. Do you need anything?¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin is quite busy recently, right? It feels like 1 have not seen you for a long time. What do you want to buy today?¡±


    Yin Xun greeted the shopkeepers politely. Hearing their questions, she could not help but feel a little exasperated. It sounded like she came to buy flowers every day. Clearly, she had only been here a few times.


    To be fair, her trunk was always filled to the brim during each of those visits.


    After strolling around for a while, Yin Xun remembered Tan Ai¡¯s words. Fang Yao apparently liked beautiful flowers that were meaningful. Since that was the case, she knew what to buy for him.


    After making the purchase, Yin Xun looked at the gift she prepared for Fang Yao. She was very satisfied. This time, Fang Yao would definitely like it.


    After leaving the flower and bird market, Yin Xun bought some fruits when she passed by the fruit shop. She asked the shop assistant to pack them properly before rushing to Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    This time, Yin Xun did not buy too much. After all, she had talked about it with Tan Ai the other day. It did not matter whether the gift was sincere as long as she gave the right thing.


    After returning to the villa, Yin Xun parked the car and walked toward Fang Yao¡¯s house with her stuff.


    The butler was trimming the flowers in the courtyard. When he saw Yin Xun carrying the flowers and fruits, he was so excited that tears almost welled up in their eyes.


    The young master had been accepting Yin Xun¡¯s strange gift for ages. Finally, she had brought something normal! It was a beautiful fruit basket! This gift was wonderful.


    ¡°Miss Yin, good to see you. That must be very heavy, right? Let me take them.¡± The butler quickly put down the shears and walked over to Yin Xun, but when he saw the bouquet of flowers in Yin Xun¡¯s arms, the smile on his face froze. The corners of his lips twitched twice.


    Alright, Yin Xun was indeed enlightened, but she seemed to be going in the wrong direction.


    The butler took the fruit basket from Yin Xun, but he did not take the bouquet of flowers. He said, ¡°Miss Yin, the Young Master is upstairs in the study. You can go and look for him yourself. Oh right, you should bring these flowers directly to him.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Yin Xun nodded in thanks and entered the house with the butler.


    The butler carried the things toward the kitchen while Yin Xun went upstairs. She arrived at Fang Yao¡¯s study without issue and knocked lightly on the door.


    ¡°Come in.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s lazy voice came from the room.


    After obtaining permission, Yin Xun pushed the door open and entered.


    Fang Yao was sitting at his desk. There was a thick stack of documents on the table. He was holding a pen and writing something on it from time to time.


    When Yin Xun entered, he did not look up. Thinking that it was the butler, he asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Yin Xun stood at the door and looked at him. ¡°I wanted to discuss work matters with you. I also brought you a gift.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s voice, Fang Yao looked up and smiled. ¡°I see you got off work early today. Come in. Let¡¯s sit down and talk.¡±


    Yin Xun held the bouquet with her hands behind her back. She walked to Fang Yao¡¯s table with light footsteps and pretended to be mysterious. ¡°Guess what gift I brought you this time?¡±


    Looking at her mysterious expression, Fang Yao smiled and thought for a moment. Then, he said, ¡°You can hold it with one hand. It doesn¡¯t look bulky, so we can exclude furniture and potted plants. It¡¯s something light and easy to hold¡­¡±


    Fang Yao thought of what Tan Ai had told him. Yin Xun had asked her what gift to get. Tan Ai explained the matter very clearly. Yin Xun should be able to choose the right thing this time.


    ¡°Perhaps flowers? But not potted ones, I take?¡± Fang Yao said firmly.


    ¡°You¡¯re so smart.¡± Seeing that Fang Yao had answered correctly, Yin Xun did not intend to keep him in suspense anymore and promptly took out the flowers.


    Oh, so it was a beautifully packaged bouquet of red carnations.


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    As expected, he should not have kept his hopes up for Yin Xun.


    ¡°How is it? You must love this gift, right?¡± Yin Xun handed the carnations to Fang Yao and looked at him with an expression that said, ¡®Look at how well 1 did this time. Are you satisfied?¡¯ It made Fang Yao think of a child asking for praise.


    The corners of Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched. He nodded and said against his will, ¡°I like it. Carnations are very flowery. This is a very¡­ caring gift.¡±


    He had never seen these flowers being presented between young people.


    Yin Xun nodded proudly. ¡°I¡¯ve done a lot of research and found that for a sick person like you, this flower is the most suitable. Although it doesn¡¯t match your temperament, all that matters is that you like it.¡±


    After handing the flowers to Fang Yao, Yin Xun sat down opposite him..

    Fang Yao clutched the bouquet of carnations and did not know how to react. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. He should not have expected Yin Xun to get him a normal gift.


    Actually, what he wanted was not flowers, but what the flowers represented. However, seeing Yin Xun like this, he simply could not rely on Yin Xun to understand.


    At this moment, the butler came over with sliced fruits and snacks. The door was not closed tightly, and the butler knocked twice before entering.


    ¡°Miss Yin, these are the snacks that our Young Master specially prepared for you. They are all your favorites. Have a taste.¡± The butler placed the snacks and the large fruit plate in front of Yin Xun before putting a small glass bowl that contained the fruit slices in front of Fang Yao.


    ¡°Miss Yin, a girl should eat more fruits. It is good for the body. You like to eat sweet things, so I smeared a layer of honey on you.¡±


    Yin Xun did not even need to lower her head to smell the unique sweet smell. It was very fragrant, and her appetite was immediately aroused.


    She looked down and realized that the butler had actually cut the fruit into many cute shapes. There were bunnies and stars.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, did you cut all this yourself?¡± Yin Xun pointed at the beautiful fruit slice and asked.


    The butler shook his head and said, ¡°No, how can 1 have such delicate hands? I made it with a mold. It¡¯s clean and hygienic.¡±


    Yin Xun gave him a thumbs up. None of the fruits were ugly. She did not expect the butler to be so meticulous.


    Fang Yao lowered his head and looked at the glass bowl in front of him. The fruit inside was not smeared with honey. It was obvious that this batch was made from the leftovers. The good parts had all been given to Yin Xun.


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    He knew that the butler had always liked Yin Xun, but he did not expect them to be so biased. Even the differentiation of fruits was so obvious.


    ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler.¡± Yin Xun looked at the butler and thanked him with a smile.


    ¡°Don¡¯t mention it. You guys can continue chatting. If there¡¯s anything, just let me know. 1¡¯11 head out first.¡± The butler looked at the carnations in Fang Yao¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Young Master, why don¡¯t you give me the flowers first? I¡¯ll find a vase to put them in and bring them in for you.¡±


    ¡°Go ahead.¡± Fang Yao handed the flowers to the butler. The butler took the flowers and left with a smile.


    Yin Xun also noticed that Fang Yao¡¯s fruit slices seemed to be very monotonous. Seeing the resentment in Fang Yao¡¯s eyes, she thought that Fang Yao also wanted to eat fruits with honey, so she pushed the fruit plate in front of Fang Yao and said, ¡°You can have these.¡±


    ¡°No need.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s tone was a little bitter as he refused. ¡°I¡¯m getting old and can¡¯t eat sweet things.¡±


    Yin Xun did not understand what Fang Yao meant and looked at him in surprise. Fang Yao was only three years older than her. Was he getting old?


    ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll bring you something suitable for elders to eat next time,¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and said. It was hard to tell if those words were intentional or not.


    When Fang Yao heard this, his gaze became even more resentful.


    ¡°What were you going to say just now?¡± He quickly changed the topic, afraid that Yin Xun would really take this matter seriously.


    After all, the way she thought about things was very unique. What if she really gave him some old man¡¯s gift in the future?


    Yin Xun¡¯s attention was diverted by Fang Yao. She straightened her expression and said, ¡°Now that the preparations for Xintao and Xintao Express have been completed, all that¡¯s left is to find a suitable time to go online. As for the digital mapping project, it has just begun. After a few days of testing, 1 realized that the problem is not insufficient technology, but insufficient funds. They just don¡¯t have enough funds to fill the database.


    ¡°If I want to improve the accuracy of navigation, I have to continue investing in it. In addition, my plan is not only to use the navigation for express delivery but also to start a business where the navigation system itself can make money. My meaning is to make an online taxi service.


    ¡°When users are using the navigation to find their route, they can also call a taxi. Customers don¡¯t have to worry about being taken on a longer path or fear for their safety. We¡¯ll install surveillance throughout the entire process and monitor it in real-time. When the customer gets out of the car, the system will automatically calculate the fare and let the user pay directly on the software.¡±


    Yin Xun seemed to have mentioned this idea before. Fang Yao nodded and asked, ¡°It¡¯s a good idea. Do you have a plan?¡±


    Yin Xun handed the proposal that she had prepared beforehand to Fang Yao. This proposal had been modified countless times by Yin Xun and was already the final version. She believed it did not have any flaws.


    Fang Yao calmly flipped open the information and began to read the contents carefully. When he saw Yin Xun¡¯s detailed plan, even though he already knew that Yin Xun would do something like this, he was still slightly surprised..

 Chapter 448 - Chapter 448: How Much Money Do You Want?

    Chapter 448: How Much Money Do You Want?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun clearly played a big role in this plan. She actually wanted to combine all the projects she was working on together.


    In addition to the navigation system, maps could also be used to order takeout and hire taxis online. Whenever there was a need to pay, the users could directly log in and pay with their Xintao account.


    She also planned to train another batch of take-out deliverymen similar to Xintao Express workers. They would focus on service and speed to ensure that customers could eat fresh and hot food.


    While Fang Yao was watching, Yin Xun added, ¡°In addition to being convenient, the biggest benefit for the drivers is that they don¡¯t need to buy or rent a standard taxi. Our goal is very specific. Because it¡¯s troublesome to equip specialized cars, we hire drivers who have private cars and have enough time.


    ¡°They can work as full-time ride-hailing drivers, but they can also choose to work part-time for a few hours a day. This way, our platform only needs to pay them, but it saves the cost of getting cars. The money we pay them will be deducted from the customer¡¯s fare. It¡¯s equivalent to the platform taking a commission. There¡¯s no extra investment. It¡¯s a very good deal.¡±


    ¡°Of course, before that, we have to carefully review the driver¡¯s information to ensure the safety of the customers, especially female passengers. We have to pay more attention to this.¡±


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun in surprise. Yin Xun¡¯s thought process was too active. She seemed to have thought of every way to earn money. She did not let anything go to waste.


    ¡°There¡¯s one more thing,¡± Yin Xun continued. ¡°There are many detailed places on the map that are not marked. If we let our company¡¯s own people accept trips from anywhere, it will be a waste of manpower and money. Before we launch the online taxi service, we will hold an event. We will let the users check in at places that are not on the map and report their location. Then, we will distribute a bonus according to the difficulty level.


    ¡°Never underestimate how hard a person will work to earn money. After our map is perfected, we¡¯ll sell the information to other companies. Anyway, as technology develops, they¡¯ll collect everything one day. Why shouldn¡¯t I give it to them and earn some money at the same time? The money from selling this information is much more than the money from giving the users some bonuses. Anyway, we¡¯ll definitely make a profit in the end.¡±


    Fang Yao frowned and said, ¡°Then what if other companies see you doing this and learn from you?¡±


    Since this method was so convenient, the other companies would not stand by like fools. They would also hold a similar event and get the users to help them investigate locations.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright. They don¡¯t have a shopping website or a delivery business.


    ¡°What I mean is that the users aren¡¯t the only ones who can participate. There are also our employees. The couriers have to make deliveries to a lot of places every day. While they use the navigation system, they can also mark out the locations that are currently unavailable. It¡¯s like they¡¯re doing a side job.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s indeed not a bad idea.¡± Fang Yao smiled and said expectantly, ¡°There¡¯s no problem with your plan. Let¡¯s go with it. To be honest, you¡¯re always bringing more surprises. I can never predict what you¡¯ll think next. It¡¯s a pity that I can¡¯t poach you for my company. To be honest, if you want to quit your work one day, you can come to my company any time. I guarantee that you¡¯ll be satisfied with the remuneration.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll say this in advance. I¡¯m very expensive. 1 won¡¯t go unless my requirements are met. My ability is in high gh demand, so we¡¯ll have to see your sincerity when the time comes.¡± Yin Xun suddenly thought of a problem.


    She sat up straight and looked at Fang Yao. ¡°However, there¡¯s still a problem with this plan. We still have a lot of preparation to do in the early stages¡­¡±


    Fang Yao smiled and wore an expression that seemed to say ¡®as expected¡¯. He nodded and said, ¡°Hmm, so how much money do you want this time?¡±


    Yin Xun picked up a star-shaped apple and popped it in her mouth. She chewed and swallowed before continuing, ¡°Apart from this, 1 also want to discuss what we talked about last time.¡±


    ¡°Sha Gao?¡± Fang Yao immediately understood what Yin Xun meant.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯ve been in contact with him personally for the past few days. Other than that, I¡¯ve also got someone to investigate the technology of other digital companies. Indeed, his company is the best. It¡¯s just that due to funding problems, the technology is not up to standard, causing the accuracy to be poor.¡±


    ¡°Also, didn¡¯t you say that you wanted me to help Sha Gao¡¯s wife, Ye Wen? I contacted her, but I realized that Sha Gao is very strict with his wife. As soon as he finds out that his wife is not around, he will call her. It¡¯s a little difficult for the two of us to work together..¡±

 Chapter 449 - Chapter 449: As A Woman

    Chapter 449: As A Woman


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Sha Gao had a lot of control over his wife, Ye Wen. Ye Wen said that Sha Gao would check her phone whenever he was at home to see who had contacted Ye Wen recently. He said that he was jealous and afraid that someone would try to pursue Ye Wen.


    In fact, Ye Wen knew that he was just afraid that she would return to the workplace and take back her company.


    He knew how capable Ye Wen was. Moreover, Ye Wen had a lot of connections. If she really put her mind to it, Sha Gao might not be able to defeat her. Even though Sha Gao had already taken over the company and controlled it for many years, he was still wary of his wife.


    Ye Wen was under Sha Gao¡¯s surveillance. She told Yin Xun about her situation, then roughly told Yin Xun her thoughts before leaving.


    She wanted to take the company back from Sha Gao in name first, then transfer the couple¡¯s joint assets before getting a divorce. That way, Sha Gao would get nothing.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°According to Ye Wen¡¯s idea, because they haven¡¯t been able to get a good investor, they don¡¯t have enough funds and cannot perfect the project. If 1 can give her some financial support at this junction, she will have the capital to fight Sha Gao. Moreover, she borrowed this money from me. 1 just need to provide her with other help.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°That¡¯s why you want more than just a chunk of money this time.¡±


    ¡°Ahem.¡± Yin Xun coughed awkwardly. ¡°Yes, you could say that.¡±


    Fang Yao asked indifferently, ¡°Actually, you don¡¯t have to go through so much trouble. As long as you want to, you can directly acquire their company. Ye Wen should support you in doing so.¡±


    Yin Xun sighed, ¡°As a woman, 1 know her difficulties, and 1 want to help her.¡±


    It would have been fine if Ye Wen was as hopeless as Yin Mo, but Ye Wen regretted it now. She wanted to stand up again, but she did not have the chance.


    As long as Yin Xun helped her create this opportunity, she would definitely be able to stand up again.


    ¡°Also.¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and smiled. ¡°She will pay back the debt in the end. 1 can also get the core technology. It¡¯s not a loss for me.¡±


    Fang Yao smiled. This was indeed Yin Xun¡¯s usual style. Not only was it beneficial to her, but it would also help others. That was very good.


    Neither of them spoke for a moment, and the room fell silent.


    Suddenly, Yin Xun¡¯s stomach rumbled. She quickly raised her hand to cover her stomach and smiled awkwardly.


    She had just eaten a few pieces of fruit and her hunger was roused. Yin Xun clutched her stomach. She only had a few bites of food in the afternoon and had not eaten anything until now. Looking at the snacks in front of her, she quickly took a lemon chicken foot and chewed on it.


    The chicken feet were golden in color and accompanied by red chili. She had been eager to eat them since the butler brought them in. The only problem was that nibbling on chicken feet would affect her image, so she had not eaten them earlier.


    For some reason, she did not want to eat this kind of thing in front of Fang Yao lately. She felt that it might have a negative impact.


    She did not know why she suddenly felt this way. She thought that it was probably because she needed Fang Yao¡¯s help more and more recently. Yes, that must be it.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun¡¯s expression and could not help but be amused. They had known each other for so long, but he had never seen Yin Xun feel embarrassed because of her stomach growling. Why was she feeling embarrassed now despite them being so familiar with each other?


    ¡°The butler should be ready. Let¡¯s go down and eat.¡± Fang Yao stood up and arranged the snacks simply. He walked away from his desk and gestured for Yin Xun to go out for dinner with him.


    Yin Xun¡¯s face was slightly red. Actually, she did not plan to freeload today. She just wanted to discuss something with Fang Yao. She planned to leave after saying that, but she did not expect her stomach to fail her like that.


    However, since she had been freeloading for so long, she might as well do it again.


    Yin Xun comforted herself in her heart and went down with Fang Yao.


    The two of them arrived downstairs just in time to see the butler coming out with the loaded carnations.


    When he saw Fang Yao, the butler smiled and showed him the carnations in his hand. At the same time, he asked, ¡°Young Master, take a look. Doesn¡¯t it give a different feel when arranged like this?¡±


    The butler trimmed the carnations and put them in an aquamarine vase. He also wrapped a rainbow ribbon around the outside. A small tag read ¡°HEALTH¡±.


    Yin Xun looked at the vase and could not help but burst out laughing.


    She gave the butler a thumbs up. ¡°Uncle Butler, your taste is quite unique.¡±


    The butler only smiled at Fang Yao and did not say anything else..

 Chapter 450 - Chapter 450: A Ready-Made Candidate

    Chapter 450: A Ready-Made Candidate


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao knew what the butler meant. The butler knew that he liked Yin Xun and had always wanted him to confess. However, because of all kinds of scruples, he had not voiced his feelings until now. He wanted Yin Xun to notice it herself. In the end, not only did Yin Xun fail to notice, but she somehow seemed to have led their relationship down a different path.


    The butler had deliberately decorated the carnations in the style suiting an elderly person. He was mocking Fang Yao for not confessing already. In the end, Yin Xun misunderstood again.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Just put it in my study,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Fang Yao felt there was no need to rush this matter. There would be a chance if he took it slow. Moreover, even if someone else wanted to make a move on Yin Xun, they would not get that chance. Therefore, he had plenty of time to prepare.


    After taking a deep look at Yin Xun, Fang Yao walked toward the dining room.


    Yin Xun was clueless as to what the butler and Fang Yao were hiding. She thought it was just an ordinary conversation between them and did not think much of it. She followed Fang Yao into the room.


    Today¡¯s dinner was a well-prepared fitness meal. It looked simple but tasted quite delicious. Yin Xun admired Fang Yao¡¯s chef from the bottom of her heart. He could somehow cook fitness meals in so many unique ways.


    Every time she had a meal here, she felt guilty, as if this was some sort of fattening feast.


    ¡°Is there anything else 1 can help you with other than with Spiritual Movements?¡± Fang Yao suddenly asked Yin Xun while they were eating.


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. Then, she frowned and began to think about it.


    She now had a total of four projects in her hands: Xintao, Xintao Express, Rhythm Video, and Digital Navigation.


    Xintao and Xintao Express were one and the same. Due to Si Fan¡¯s interference, both of them could not go online at the moment. Rhythm Video was currently at the critical moment of the closed beta phase. Meanwhile, the navigation system was still being prepared.


    Regarding money, she had Liu Ying, Qu Lin, and Fang Yao as investors. Yin Cheng would also invest some money, so there was no problem. The most important thing now was that she lacked people who could take the lead for these projects.


    Recently, she had been recruiting. However, although the people who came were all very capable people, they did not have the ability to lead a team.


    Mary was in charge of Rhythm Video. Yin Xun was in charge of Xintao and Xintao Express. She was already exhausted and did not have the energy to work on the online maps and taxi service.


    She urgently needed someone with good general abilities to help her.


    Yin Xun shared her thoughts with Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao said, ¡°Don¡¯t you already have a ready-made candidate by your side?¡±


    ¡°Who?¡± Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. She thought of all the capable people around her. Mi Jin, Mary¡­ Other than Mary, none of them seemed suitable to manage.


    Xintao had just started and had been recruiting employees, but it was still not enough.


    Suddenly, a person¡¯s name appeared in Yin Xun¡¯s mind. She widened her eyes and looked at Fang Yao. ¡°Liu Ying!¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Although Liu Ying used to have a thing for Si Fan, it¡¯s obvious that she¡¯s closer to you now. Moreover, I heard that she¡¯s now working hard to learn management to the point that she¡¯s forgetting herself. Haven¡¯t you realized that she¡¯s been absent because she¡¯s been studying?¡±


    At the thought of this, Fang Yao was rather amused.


    Because of Liu Ying¡¯s arrival, Yin Xun did not come to his place to eat like before. Ever since he and Liu Ying returned that day, he had gotten someone to investigate Liu Ying.


    After learning about Liu Ying and the Liu family, he made a deal to give her a nice learning environment. He also lent her a sum of money so that she could live in peace and stop pestering Yin Xun.


    Liu Ying¡¯s heart was also very frustrated at the time. When she heard about this deal, she agreed without hesitation. From then on, she did not continue to go to Yin Xun¡¯s place.


    However, Yin Xun did not know about this. She looked at Fang Yao with a strange expression. ¡°You sure know a lot about her. It seems that the two of you had a good time that day.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± It was Fang Yao¡¯s turn to be confused.


    Yin Xun could not help but laugh when she thought of what Liu Ying said the other day. She stifled her laughter and said, ¡°You were chasing after her, weren¡¯t you? Did you catch her in the end?¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    Unexpectedly, Yin Xun still remembered that incident. Fang Yao said helplessly, ¡°She was just joking with you. It¡¯s obvious that 1 wouldn¡¯t play such a childish game with her..¡±

 Chapter 451 - Chapter 451: A Good Habit

    Chapter 451: A Good Habit


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


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


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


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


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


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


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


    Yin Xun sat back down and nodded in understanding. ¡°That¡¯s a good habit. In the future, your girlfriend won¡¯t have to worry about you fooling around.¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    Why did Yin Xun¡¯s focus deviate every time?


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


    ¡°Where is the address?¡± Yin Xun asked in a deep voice.


    ¡°Si Xia said that she secretly brought him out of the abandoned warehouse in the western district and told me to go over as soon as possible. If I¡¯m discovered, even she won¡¯t be able to do anything,¡± Mary said anxiously.


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


    ¡°I thought you wouldn¡¯t let me know about this,¡± Fang Yao said after Yin Xun hung up.


    Yin Xun smiled guiltily at Fang Yao. ¡°Actually, you already knew, didn¡¯t you?¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°I¡¯ve known since Mary¡¯s brother was first captured. i planned to tell you, but I realized that you had also sensed it and made preparations, so 1 didn¡¯t make a move.¡±


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


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


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


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


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


    ¡°Let¡¯s take my car. i¡¯ll go with you.¡± Fang Yao got up and quickly followed her..

 Chapter 452 - Chapter 452: Yin Xun Was Almost Sent Flying

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


    ¡°Thank you,¡± Yin Xun said.


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


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


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


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


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


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


    ¡°Ah, maybe we don¡¯t have to drive this fast.¡± Yin Xun felt that her back was tightly pressed against the back of her seat and even felt a little weightless.


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


    Fang Yao saw Yin Xun¡¯s worry and comforted her. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. He¡¯s an


    ex-racer. This much is nothing to him.¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±!¡±


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


    Fang Yao let out a hiss of pain.


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


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


    Fang Yao said, ¡°¡­Remember to fasten your seatbelt next time you¡¯re in a car.¡±


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


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


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


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


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


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

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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


    ¡°Thank you, President Yin.¡± Mary¡¯s eyes were red as she looked at Yin Xun. Even her voice was trembling as she thanked her.


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


    ¡°Go,¡± Yin Xun urged her.


    Mary nodded. ¡°Okay.¡±


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


    ¡°I¡¯m heading over. Wait for me. I¡¯ll be there soon,¡± Mary said, picking up speed.


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


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


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


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


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


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


    ¡°Strange, Si Xia was telling Mary to hurry up just now. She sounded so anxious, so why isn¡¯t there any movement now? Could it be that she¡¯s lying to Mary?¡± Yin Xun wondered aloud.


    Fang Yao shook his head and pointed at his phone. ¡°Maybe Si Xia was worried that Mary would bring someone else over, so she wanted to wait and see. After all, kidnapping isn¡¯t a small matter. Once it¡¯s discovered, everyone involved will be done for..¡±

 Chapter 454 - Chapter 454: Si Xia Was Here

    Chapter 454: Si Xia Was Here

    ¡°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¡ªwho¡¯s never gotten involved with these things¡ªwould 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 - Chapter 455: How Many People Are There?

    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 - Chapter 456: Its All Recorded

    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¡ªshe 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 - Chapter 457: Let Si Xia Off

    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 - Chapter 458: Im Back

    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?¡±

    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 - Chapter 460: Give My Heart To You

    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 - Chapter 461: Heard It All

    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 - Chapter 462: Blocked

    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 - Chapter 463: Caught A Cold

    Chapter 463: Caught A Cold

    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¡ªAchoo!¡± 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 - Chapter 464: Taking Her Away

    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 - 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 - Chapter 467: Worried of Scaring You

    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 - Chapter 468: Xintao Is Online

    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 - Chapter 469: Thank Si Xia For Me

    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..

    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..¡±

    Si Fan had his hands full with various things. At this moment, Yin Xun let out a laugh when she saw the soaring downloads.


    Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun¡¯s overly cheerful smile and could not help but ask, ¡°President Yin, didn¡¯t you already expect this? Even without Blue Fox¡¯s actions, Xintao would have gotten this reception. Why are you so pleased?¡±


    ¡°Oh? You could tell.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Of course, what makes me happy isn¡¯t just the number of downloads from Xintao, but Si Fan.¡±


    ¡°Tell me about it. Make me happy too.¡± Hearing the mention of Si Fan, Mi Jin¡¯s interest was piqued.


    Yin Xun said with a smile, ¡°There are two big problems Si Fan is facing now. One is the withdrawal of the Blue Fox investors, and the other is the outcome of his crooked ways. Neither of them is working out for him. If I¡¯m not wrong, he will call me soon.¡±


    Mi Jin was puzzled. ¡°What does he have to say to you?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ll know when the time comes.¡± Yin Xun smiled mysteriously and did not explain further.


    Sure enough, not long after, Si Fan called. It was from an unknown number. It looked like Si Fan was using someone else¡¯s phone to call her.


    ¡°Yin Xun, have you forgotten our deal?¡± Si Fan¡¯s angry voice came from the other end as soon as the call went through.


    Mi Jin was right beside him. Yin Xun did not intend to keep him in the dark and even put him on speaker, so Mi Jin could hear him clearly.


    Mi Jin knew that this was what Yin Xun was talking about. He secretly gave Yin Xun a thumbs up and sat quietly at the side to listen to their conversation.


    Yin Xun asked disinterestedly, ¡°Deal? What deal? Are we very close?¡±


    Si Fan roared, ¡°Yin Xun, don¡¯t forget that your company¡¯s secrets are in my hands. 1¡¯11 give you one last chance to merge with Blue Fox. Otherwise, I¡¯ll ruin your reputation!¡±


    ¡°Alright, if you¡¯re sure that the information is real, then go ahead and do it. 1 support you.¡± After saying that, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°By the way, Si Fan, 1 don¡¯t know if you¡¯ve heard of this saying before. Success is always set off by your peers. Thank you for brainlessly managing Blue Fox. That gave us a chance to gain more popularity in Xintao.¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Si Fan was rendered speechless by Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    Yin Xun asked again, ¡°Do you have anything else? If not, 1¡¯11 hang up. I¡¯m very busy. If you¡¯re so free, you can go to the official website to check the download volume of Xintao. We¡¯re really earning money every minute and second. This feels good, but someone like you who has suffered a crushing defeat in your career won¡¯t understand. You¡¯ve been failing all this time, and you might not have another chance in the future¡­¡±


    ¡°Yin Xun, don¡¯t be smug so soon. One day, I¡¯ll make you kneel and beg for mercy!¡±


    Before Yin Xun could finish, Si Fan could not take it anymore. He hung up.


    Listening to the beeping sound on the other end of the phone, Yin Xun frowned slightly and asked Mi Jin sulkily, ¡°Why is he so uneducated? He hung up before 1 could finish speaking.¡±


    Mi Jin,¡±¡­¡±


    She was basking in the limelight and had even mocked Si Fan over the phone. How thick-skinned must Si Fan be to continue listening to her mockery? He would probably have fainted from anger if he took any more.


    Mi Jin cupped his fists and saluted Yin Xun to show his admiration.


    ¡°Forget it, Si Fan has always been like this. Otherwise, why would Yin Mo like him? They¡¯re quite compatible in this aspect,¡± Yin Xun said disdainfully. ¡°There¡¯s no problem with Xintao anymore. Let¡¯s see how Rhythm is doing. Mary didn¡¯t come today, so 1 can only trouble you to keep an eye on things. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll pay you double.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s a small issue As long as it¡¯s something that goes against Si Fan, I¡¯m happy to do it.¡± As Mi Jin spoke, he opened the Rhythm Short Video UI.


    Because they did not use the Yin family or Xintao to support Rhythm and did not invest too much in advertising, not many people knew about this software. The download number could only be said to be passable.


    Yin Xun looked at the somewhat deserted comments section. She was not disappointed; instead, she was rather satisfied.


    ¡°Very good. Xintao is our main source of income now. It¡¯s still unstable at the beginning. When we¡¯ve completely established ourselves, we¡¯ll publicize other projects. Otherwise, we¡¯ll easily be targeted by other companies.¡± Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief..

    This kind of software was different from shopping apps. It was heavily reliant on user traffic. It could only gain more popularity if there were enough attractive videos. This could not be rushed.


    ¡°So what do we do next?¡± Mi Jin asked.


    Yin Xun smiled and said expectantly, ¡°In a while, inform the finance and human resources departments to calculate everyone¡¯s overtime work for the past few days and pay them according to their normal salary rate. Also, tell the employees to go out and have fun tomorrow. Tell them it¡¯s a paid vacation. Get the human resources department to count how many people there are and report to me before you get off work. It¡¯s up to everyone whether they want to take time off or not. Anyway, the company will pay for the holiday. Let¡¯s go and relax for two days.¡±


    Coincidentally, Fang Yao¡¯s company was also going out for a vacation. That day, Fang Yao said that he had already chosen a place and booked their travels. He was just waiting for her to confirm the time.


    How could she miss such a good opportunity? This was related to the Fang Corporation. Perhaps her employees would be happy to get to know the people from the Fang Corporation. After all, those who managed to enter the Yin Corporation were all decent talents.


    ¡°Okay, but¡­¡± Mi Jin was not too excited to hear about the vacation. Instead, he asked worriedly, ¡°Xintao has just gone online, and Blue Fox is not completely down yet. We¡¯ve only been online for a day, and this is a critical moment. I¡¯m a little worried. Also, from Si Fan¡¯s attitude just now, it¡¯s obvious that he will try something again. We should leave someone to watch over Blue Fox.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what I¡¯m doing,¡± Yin Xun said casually. ¡°We¡¯ve been fighting this battle with Blue Fox for a long time. Everyone has been tense every day. Now that we¡¯ve finally won, and Si Fan won¡¯t be able to fight back for the time being, we should let everyone rest well during this period. Only by combining work and rest will our efficiency be higher.¡±


    Mi Jin was still worried. ¡°But¡­¡±


    Yin Xun interrupted him. ¡°No buts. If Si Fan is forced into a corner, he might give up everything to take revenge on us. He still has a chance now, but he needs time and energy. He won¡¯t provoke us in the short term. If you¡¯re really worried, then you can keep an eye on him. Remember to clock in when you come in and out of work so that it¡¯s easier for human resources to settle your salary. If you regret your decision, you can leave at any time and I¡¯ll settle your salary by the hourly rate.¡±


    ¡°The salary is not important¡­¡± Mi Jin wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Yin Xun again.


    ¡°Well, if you don¡¯t think salary is important, then forget it. It saves me money. I don¡¯t mind.¡± Yin Xun waved her hand and walked out.


    Since she had already confirmed the time, she had to tell Fang Yao as soon as possible so that he would have enough time to plan.


    In fact, she understood Mi Jin¡¯s worries. Mi Jin had been swindled horribly by Si Fan in the past, so it made sense that he was so worried. Therefore, her attitude toward Mi Jin was more relaxed. Mi Jin was allowed to do whatever he wanted. If he worked overtime, she would pay him accordingly. If he did not work overtime, he could go out with the other employees to relax.


    Recently, no one had been more tense than Mi Jin. He was hell-bent on defeating Si Fan. Although Xintao had won this round, it was impossible for Mi Jin to instantly relax. He had to take the changes slowly.


    When Mi Jin saw that Yin Xun had left without a care, he did not look too worried. He sighed and changed the computer page to the interface of Blue Fox and Xintao.


    He did not doubt Yin Xun¡¯s words. Ever since he met Yin Xun, every decision Yin Xun made had never gone wrong.


    However, Si Fan had no morals or laws. According to his personality, there was no telling what he would do, so he felt that it was safer to continue watching Si Fan.


    He opened Blue Fox¡¯s comment section and scrolled through them one by one. Since Blue Fox was using a webpage for direct downloading of the app, the system was different from the app store. They used a webpage rating. Users could criticize the app as they pleased. No matter how foul the language was, it would not be blocked.


    If people were downloading from the app store, some comments could be blocked.


    In Blue Fox¡¯s comment section, the users who gave bad reviews also recommended Xintao. They praised Xintao¡¯s express delivery speed and authenticity. Things were also cheaper.


    Most importantly, Xintao was smooth to operate. Even if it was an old phone, the app could still be used. It seemed to beat Blue Fox in all aspects.


    Mi Jin felt more and more relaxed after looking around the Blue Fox webpage. He returned to the Xintao interface.


    Xintao¡¯s popularity continued to rise. As more time passed since its release, the number of good reviews increased.


    In the past, only the users of Zhenku and Xiaoguo were using Xintao. Now that the whole platform was online and optimized, Xintao had more practical functions than before. Other than shopping, users could also add each other as friends to chat..

    What was especially popular was the Moments sharing function. Everyone praised it in the comments section.


    [Ahhh! For a person like me who has tons to share but wants some privacy on the Internet, the Moments feature is a godsend. I can block whoever I want and show things to the people 1 choose. I can even confess to my idol! Add them as a friend and set up a Moment that only they can see. Then I can confess. Anyway, it worked!]


    [Xintao Express Delivery is really fast. I only placed the order not long ago, but it¡¯s already shown that it¡¯s on its way. It¡¯s expected to arrive tomorrow. 1¡¯11 see if 1 can really get it tomorrow and decide if I should give it a five-star rating. For an ordinary delivery, it might take two days just to leave the warehouse.] [Did you guys use the Xintao Friends function? It¡¯s amazing. I didn¡¯t expect it could be used to directly log into the game. You can even connect with your gaming friends. This way, you can pull your friends over to play games with you at any time. Isn¡¯t this better than the Blue Fox next door? Blue Fox can¡¯t be used for anything but shopping. Even its shopping has problems.]


    Looking at the increasing number of good reviews in the comments section, Mi Jin gradually felt smug. He looked forward to Si Fan¡¯s reaction when he saw these things.


    There was one thing that made him extremely puzzled. Based on Si Fan¡¯s personality, it was impossible for him to be so quiet.


    After waiting for a while and confirming that there was no movement from Blue Fox, Mi Jin went to look for the human resources and finance department according to Yin Xun¡¯s request.


    From the launch of Xintao until now, they had been fighting with Blue Fox for ages. The employees had always been tense. In addition, Si Fan always made things difficult for Xintao, causing the employees to work overtime all the time. Everyone had been working too hard recently.


    However, Xintao¡¯s overtime conditions were better than Blue Fox¡¯s. Yin Xun paid overtime on top of the normal working hours. This was also the reason why everyone could persevere.


    Now, the employees were physically and mentally exhausted. When they heard that they would be on vacation tomorrow and that the company would organize a trip, everyone signed up.


    It was a holiday, and they could even get paid, so who would refuse? However, there were also a few who just wanted to stay at home and rest during the holiday. They rejected the trip.


    Initially, Mi Jin did not want to go, but when he saw that there was no movement from Blue Fox, he was more relieved. He also signed up and planned to rest for the day tomorrow.


    After conveying Yin Xun¡¯s message, Mi Jin returned to the office and continued to stare at the computer to check on Blue Fox¡¯s current situation.


    He was extremely glad that he had chosen to return with Yin Xun back then. Otherwise, he would not have been able to see such an interesting scene.


    On the other side, after Yin Xun confirmed the vacation time, she called Fang Yao to discuss it. Fang Yao was already prepared and get started at any time.


    However, he needed to confirm the number of people. Yin Xun sent the document she had just received to Fang Yao.


    Now that the matter was over, she had nothing else to do. She looked at the time and remembered that although Yin Cheng was doing fine, he had not been discharged from the hospital. Yin Xun drove straight to the hospital.


    After parking the car, Yin Xun was about to walk toward the inpatient department when she suddenly saw a familiar figure from the corner of her eye.


    Before she could take a closer look, she heard a familiar voice. ¡°Sister, why are you here?¡±


    Yin Xun turned around and saw the person who had just spoken walking toward her quickly. The person¡¯s walking posture was a little strange.


    She was heavily dressed. She was wearing a mask and hat, as well as a pair of sunglasses. It was no wonder Yin Xun only found her familiar at first glance but did not recognize her. She only knew who it was when she heard the voice. ¡°Yin Mo?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°It¡¯s me, Sister.¡± Yin Mo took off her sunglasses, but she did not take off her mask and hat. She approached Yin Xun and asked weakly, ¡°Sister, why are you here?¡±


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes at the sky, wondering why Yin Mo was so persistent. To think that she would bump into her here.


    Yin Xun said coldly, ¡°Don¡¯t call me Sister. Don¡¯t forget that we¡¯ve already cut ties. Also, what does my coming here have to do with you?¡±


    With those words, Yin Xun walked away without even looking at Yin Mo.


    Yin Xun did not look back. She knew that Yin Mo would definitely follow her secretly. That was fine. She could let Wu Li and Yin Cheng settle this matter. She was just an elder sister, so her words would have little effect. In the end, she could not make Yin Mo give up. Yin Cheng was the most suitable person to say it.


    Yin Cheng¡¯s ward door was ajar. Before Yin Xun entered, she knocked twice.


    ¡°Come in.¡± It was Yin Cheng¡¯s voice.


    Yin Xun pushed the door open and entered.. When she realized that Yin Cheng was the only one in the ward, she could not help but ask, ¡°Dad, is Mom not here?¡±

 Chapter 474 - Chapter 474: Making A Move On Yin Xun

    Chapter 474: Making A Move On Yin Xun


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Cheng was eating an orange. When Yin Xun sat by his bed, he took out a large orange from the bag beside him and gave it to Yin Xun. ¡°Have an orange. Your mother went back to see your brother. No one has been taking care of that boy these few days. He¡¯s been playing like crazy. The servant said that your brother hasn¡¯t been home for the past few days. He¡¯s really a brat. He¡¯s totally lawless since I¡¯m not at home. When I go back, I¡¯ll give him a beating.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re right.¡± It was rare for Yin Xun to agree with Yin Cheng on the matter of beating Yin Rui.


    She looked at the orange that Yin Cheng handed to her. Instead of taking it, she went to pick out another small one. ¡°I don¡¯t want a big one. The big ones are sour, and the small ones are sweet.¡±


    Yin Cheng said, ¡°¡­You¡¯re quite picky.¡±


    ¡°Dad, do you know where Yin Rui has been for the past few days?¡± Yin Xun took a tissue and wrapped it around her finger before peeling the orange. This way, she could prevent her hand from being stained.


    Yin Cheng shook his head. ¡°I don¡¯t know. Your mother hasn¡¯t given me any news yet. However, where else could he be? He must have gone to look for those classmates of his. He really doesn¡¯t learn. He¡¯s just like your sister, always making me worry¡­¡±


    At the mention of the word ¡®sister¡¯, Yin Cheng suddenly looked a little depressed.


    Yin Xun saw the change in Yin Cheng¡¯s mood and changed the topic. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. Although Yin Rui is young, he¡¯s still quite sensible. He helped me a lot last time. Without him, Xintao might not have been able to go online as smoothly as it did.¡±


    Despite her words, she was actually very worried.


    Although she had already warned Yin Rui to stay away from those friends of his, she knew Yin Rui would not listen. She only hoped that Si Fan would not target Yin Rui so quickly this time.


    When she returned, she would have to deal with this matter properly.


    ¡°Oh, really? He actually helped you? Tell me about it.¡± Yin Cheng was suddenly interested and even forgot to eat the orange.


    Yin Xun told Yin Cheng about how Yin Rui found out that Si Fan had kidnapped Mary¡¯s brother. She went into the details of how she had cooperated with Mary to trick Si Fan and save Mark. She told Yin Cheng everything.


    After listening, Yin Cheng finished the orange in his hand. He said with relief, ¡°As expected, Yin Rui at least listens to you. It¡¯s safer to have you take care of him.¡±


    Yin Cheng¡¯s mood finally improved, and a smile reappeared on his face.


    ¡°I saw that Xintao is online. As expected of my daughter. You did very well,¡± Yin Cheng said with a smile.


    Xintao was very popular. It was founded by Yin Xun alone. Everyone knew that Yin Xun was his daughter. When Yin Xun was in the limelight, even he got some extra attention.


    Just before Yin Xun came, a few old friends called him and asked if Yin Xun had a boyfriend. They all praised her for being really capable. They wanted to invite Yin Xun to hang out at their homes. Their children were about the same age as Yin Xun and were also in the business field, so they could make friends with each other.


    Hmph, did those old things really think that he did not know what they were up to? Clearly, they were interested in Yin Xun¡¯s ability and wanted to have her as their daughter-in-law.


    They could forget about that. Their kids were also useless boys. They fooled around all day and changed girlfriends every few days. People like that were not worthy of being friends with Yin Xun.


    Thinking of this, Yin Cheng¡¯s face darkened again. Those people actually planned to make a move on Yin Xun.


    His daughter was a smart and capable girl. Even if she found a boyfriend, it had to be someone like her. It would be best if the two of them could support each other. Of course, their family background was less important. As long as the guy had a good character, it was fine. Most importantly was that Yin Xun liked him.


    Yin Cheng felt that he was very open-minded and believed in Yin Xun¡¯s ability to choose a partner. He would leave such matters to Yin Xun to handle herself.


    Yin Cheng was in a daze when Yin Xun suddenly patted him. He was startled. ¡°Girl, why did you suddenly pat me?¡±


    Yin Xun stared at Yin Cheng and did not say anything. Just as Yin Cheng was starting to wonder if something was wrong, Yin Xun finally spoke. She frowned and asked, ¡°Dad, what were you thinking about? Why are you suddenly angry? Your face was scrunched up like an old man. You looked furious. Why is it? Are you jealous that Xintao¡¯s popularity has surpassed our construction company?¡± ¡°You child, what are you talking about!¡± Yin Cheng gently patted Yin Xun¡¯s head and rolled his eyes at her. ¡°You¡¯re my daughter. If you succeed, I stand to benefit too. Which parent would be jealous of their child?¡±


    ¡°Haha, I was just joking,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile..

 Chapter 475 - Chapter 475: Yin Mo Was Here

    Chapter 475: Yin Mo Was Here


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun saw Yin Cheng¡¯s expression suddenly darkened. She thought that he was upset after suddenly thinking of Yin Mo, so she thought of a way to cheer him up.


    ¡°But, Xun¡­¡± Yin Cheng pondered for a moment and coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment. He asked, ¡°Have you ever thought about getting a boyfriend? I know you¡¯re busy and don¡¯t have much time. If you ever think about it, 1¡¯11 help you keep an eye on the young men around you. Don¡¯t worry, 1 guarantee that I¡¯ll only find people with both looks and talent.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Cheng resentfully. ¡°Are you going to rush me to marriage too?¡±


    Yin Cheng smiled and quickly explained, ¡°No, no. My daughter is an outstanding girl. I¡¯m just thinking, how can she not find a boyfriend? I must be over thinking.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Your expression betrayed you. Is that really what you think¡­¡±


    While the two of them were talking, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the ward. When Yin Xun came in just now, she closed the door, so she did not know who was outside right now.


    ¡°Come in,¡± Yin Cheng said.


    The door of the ward slowly opened, and a person who was heavily dressed walked in slowly.


    When she saw who it was, Yin Xun¡¯s expression soured. She turned away and did not intend to speak. Yin Mo had indeed followed her.


    Yin Mo walked in quietly. Because she was covering herself too tightly, Yin Cheng could not tell at first glance who it was.


    ¡°Who are you? What¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Cheng asked with a frown.


    ¡°Dad, it¡¯s me.¡± Yin Mo took off her sunglasses and hat and called out to Yin Cheng, but she still did not take off her mask.


    Yin Cheng was not expecting to see Yin Mo. His expression immediately changed, and his frown deepened. He looked at Yin Mo and said unhappily, ¡°What are you doing here?¡±


    ¡°Dad, I¡¯m so sorry. Actually, I wanted to come and see you for a long time, but Sister wouldn¡¯t tell me which hospital you were in. I came to this hospital today and happened to see Sister. I guessed that you must be here too, so I secretly followed,¡± Yin Mo explained. ¡°Dad, how are you feeling now?¡±


    Yin Mo slowly walked toward Yin Cheng¡¯s bed. When Yin Xun saw Yin Mo leaning close to her, she felt rather cursed. She immediately stood up and walked to the sofa to sit down.


    Although she did not want to see Yin Mo, she was afraid that Yin Mo would do something stupid and hurt Yin Cheng again, so she could only stay to watch her.


    Yin Cheng said testily, ¡°I didn¡¯t die as you hoped. I¡¯m an old man with a tough body. I managed to survive.¡±


    ¡°Dad, you know, I didn¡¯t mean to anger you. I just love Fan too much¡­¡± Yin Mo said weakly.


    Before she could finish, Yin Xun interrupted her. ¡°Yin Mo, did you come here today to tell us how much you love Si Fan? If that¡¯s the case, you don¡¯t have to say it again. We already know. You can leave.¡±


    ¡°Cough, cough¡­¡± Yin Cheng was so angry that he started coughing. Yin Mo saw this as well and quickly went forward to help Yin Cheng calm down, but Yin Cheng pushed her away.


    Yin Cheng did not use much strength, but Yin Mo could not stop herself from falling backward. When Yin Cheng realized that something was wrong and wanted to help her, it was already too late. Yin Mo had already fallen to the ground.


    ¡°All¡ª¡±


    Yin Mo screamed as she fell to the ground. She tried to get up and move her body, but she could not get up. She cried and screamed at the same time. Her abnormal behavior shocked both Yin Cheng and Yin Xun.


    ¡°Mo¡¯er, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Cheng was a little flustered. He got up and tried to get off the bed to take a look.


    However, he had medical equipment stuck in his body right now. Yin Xun hurriedly stopped him. ¡°Dad, don¡¯t move!¡±


    Yin Xun quickly walked to Yin Mo¡¯s side. Ignoring how much she Yin Mo, she gently helped Yin Mo up. When she saw that Yin Mo¡¯s face was pale and her forehead was covered in sweat, she knew that Yin Mo was not pretending.


    After being helped up by Yin Xun, Yin Mo finally stopped screaming. She panted heavily as if she had just been tortured.


    As she held Yin Mo¡¯s body, Yin Xun felt that something was wrong. Yin Mo was wearing a black gauze dress, but it felt hard to the touch.


    The weather was so hot now, but Yin Mo was wearing a long-sleeved dress and a mask. No matter how you looked at it, it was abnormal.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Yin Xun asked coldly.


    Yin Mo shook her head. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just came to see Dad. Since Dad is fine, I¡¯ll come and see you again later.¡± After saying that, Yin Mo turned around and was about to leave.


    Her situation was really abnormal. Yin Xun turned around and looked at Yin Cheng, who also looked at her in confusion.


    The father and daughter communicated with their eyes. Yin Xun nodded slightly. Then, while Yin Mo was not paying attention, she pulled off Yin Mo¡¯s mask. Yin Mo screamed and quickly covered herself.


    However, it was too late. Yin Xun and Yin Cheng had already seen the situation on her face..

    Chapter 476: Something Happened To Your Brother


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    There were several bruises on Yin Mo¡¯s face, and there was a clear palm print on the left half of her face. It was obvious that someone had hit her hard.


    ¡°What happened to your face?¡± Yin Cheng asked in a low voice. He could not hide the concern in his voice.


    Yin Mo was his child after all. Even if their relationship was strained, his heart would still ache if he saw her like this.


    ¡°I accidentally fell¡­¡± Yin Mo knew that Yin Cheng and Yin Xun had already seen her face, so she put down her hand and stopped hiding.


    Yin Cheng and Yin Xun gave each other a look that said, ¡®Do you think I¡¯d believe that?¡¯ How could a slap mark appear on their faces if they fell?


    Yin Xun saw that Yin Mo was still being stubborn, so she reached out and grabbed Yin Mo¡¯s arm. Then, she pulled up her sleeve. Just as expected, Yin Mo¡¯s arm was bandaged and there was a little blood on it.


    Yin Cheng saw it too. He frowned. There was anger in his eyes, but also a hint of heartache.


    He asked, ¡°Mo¡¯er, did Si Fan hit you? I¡¯ll give you one last chance. If you¡¯re not having a good life at his place, if you promise me that you won¡¯t have any contact with Si Fan in the future, you can still be a child of our Yin family.¡± When he said this, Yin Cheng glanced at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun knew that Yin Cheng was asking for her opinion. She only listened quietly and did not say anything. She knew that with Yin Mo¡¯s personality, she would never leave Si Fan.


    If she had this willpower, she would have left long ago when she was first abused. In the original novel, even after Yin Mo¡¯s organs were taken away, she still loved Si Fan. She was a lovestruckfool, through and through.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Father. My injury has nothing to do with Fan. 1 just fell. I came to look for you to apologize and visit you. Since you¡¯re fine, that¡¯s a weight off my mind.¡± Yin Mo bit her lip gently and walked back to Yin Cheng. She bowed deeply.


    The implication was clear. She would rather leave the Yin family and stay with Si Fan.


    Yin Cheng sighed and suppressed his anger. ¡°Alright, alright, alright. Your mother and 1 raised you, but this is how you repay us. You like Si Fan, right? You¡¯re willing to do anything for him, right? Alright, our Yin family will only have two children from now on.¡±


    With that, Yin Cheng waved his hand, gesturing for Yin Mo to leave.


    Yin Mo bit her lip and looked at Yin Cheng with tears in her eyes. She looked at him for a few seconds and did not say a word. She pushed the door open and ran out.


    ¡°I don¡¯t understand. You and Yin Mo are both my children. Why are you so different? It¡¯s obvious that she¡¯s not doing well at Si Fan¡¯s place, but she still won¡¯t return. How is Si Fan worth all this?¡± After Yin Mo left, Yin Cheng asked in confusion.


    Yin Xun shrugged. ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you before? The worse her life is, the less likely she¡¯ll return to us. Maybe when she gets better one day, she might come back.¡±


    There was one thing that made Yin Xun curious. Why did Yin Mo suddenly come to this hospital?


    Logically speaking, the injuries on her body looked shocking, but they were just superficial wounds. She should be fine after bandaging them and applying some medicine. Besides, Si Fan had a family doctor at home, so there was no need for her to come to the hospital.


    Could it be that Si Fan knew that she was no longer useful, so he did not help her?


    This was unlikely. Judging from Yin Mo¡¯s behavior, it was obvious that Si Fan had not kicked her away completely. Since he had not disposed of her yet, it meant that Yin Mo was still useful to Si Fan.


    The Yin family¡¯s value was gone. There was only one thing left, and that was¡­ Yin Mo¡¯s own value!


    Yin Mo¡¯s sudden appearance in the hospital was very likely related to Si Fan. An idea suddenly popped up in her mind. Yin Xun took out her phone and sent a message.


    What was exact the situation here? They would know after investigating.


    ¡°Xun, why are you spacing out?¡± Yin Cheng could not help but ask when he saw Yin Xun standing at the door.


    Yin Xun came back to her senses and returned to Yin Cheng¡¯s side. She smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I¡¯m just feeling sorry for Mother and you. How does it feel to raise an ingrate?¡±


    Yin Cheng looked at Yin Xun sadly and said, ¡°Do you like to stab your father¡¯s heart so much?¡±


    Before Yin Xun could speak, her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and saw that it was Wu Li calling.


    ¡°It¡¯s Mother,¡± Yin Xun said to Yin Cheng before pressing the answer button.


    Wu Li¡¯s panicked and sobbing voice came from the other end of the phone. ¡°Xun, come over quickly.. Something happened to your brother!¡±

 Chapter 477 - Chapter 477: Dirty Tactics

    Chapter 477: Dirty Tactics


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun¡¯s pupils dilated. Yin Cheng, who was beside her, also heard Wu Li¡¯s words and was equally shocked.


    ¡°What happened to Lil Rui? What¡¯s going on?¡± Yin Cheng asked anxiously in a low voice. He was no longer thinking of beating the boy up.


    Yin Xun signaled Yin Cheng to relax. Wu Li was already anxious enough. If Yin Cheng panicked too, Wu Li would be even more flustered. What she needed to do now was to find out the reason first and then think of a solution. If she got anxious, it would only make things worse.


    Upon receiving Yin Xun¡¯s signal, Yin Cheng immediately understood what she meant and stopped talking. He just stared at Yin Xun¡¯s phone.


    After briefly understanding the situation from Wu Li, Yin Xun hung up the phone.


    Strictly speaking, the matter this time was not very serious. Yin Rui had not been home for the past few days. Although he said that he was going to his classmates¡¯ place to study together, that was not true. Instead, he went to the club with his friends. They had been playing cards at the club.


    Unexpectedly, the police raided the clubhouse. This was considered a gambling group, so they were arrested. Fortunately, they were just playing cards and did not gamble, so it was not very serious. What was more serious was something else. The clubhouse Yin Rui went to was not clean and provided special services.


    The boys stayed at the clubhouse overnight. A few of them could not resist having sex and found a lady to accompany them in bed.


    This was essentially prostitution. Playing cards without money was not considered gambling, but prostitution was illegal. Although Yin Rui did not hire any prostitutes, he was always with his friends, so he was also arrested.


    Yin Rui knew that what they had done was dishonorable, so when he was taking his statement at the police station, he refused to reveal his identity and contact information.


    It was not easy for the police to find out a person¡¯s identity. It was one thing for them to investigate it themselves, but it was another matter whether Yin Rui would cooperate or not. What he did was considered an obstruction of official duty, which was an additional crime.


    In the end, the police found the contact information themselves and contacted Wu Li to tell her everything.


    Gambling, soliciting, obstruction of official business. The police officer laid out a list of charges.


    Wu Li was always a timid person. When she heard the police say these words, her mind was completely blank. In the end, she did not really listen to what the police said at all. She just agreed to everything and hung up.


    She did not know what to do. Yin Cheng was still in the hospital. She was afraid that Yin Cheng would be furious if he found out, so she could only call Yin Xun. She thought that Yin Xun would definitely have a solution. However, she did not expect Yin Xun to be by Yin Cheng¡¯s side at this moment. Yin Cheng had heard all her words.


    ¡°This brat. He¡¯s only in high school and he¡¯s not educating himself properly. We¡¯ll see how I¡¯ll deal with him when 1 get back!¡± Yin Cheng cursed when he saw Yin Xun hang up the phone. He was about to get up. It seemed like he wanted to teach Yin Rui a lesson personally.


    Yin Xun quickly stopped Yin Cheng. ¡°Dad, leave this to me. You should rest well. When you¡¯re better, you can teach him a lesson.¡±


    Not long ago, Yin Cheng was so angry with Yin Mo that he almost died. His body had yet to recover. If he was angered by Yin Rui now, the consequences would be even worse.


    Besides, no one was better at teaching Yin Rui a lesson than her.


    Yin Cheng frowned and asked worriedly, ¡°Xun, can you handle it yourself? If there¡¯s any problem, call Daddy. I will go over and teach him a lesson personally.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what to do.¡±


    After saying goodbye to Yin Cheng, Yin Xun left the hospital. As she walked out, she paid extra attention to her surroundings, but she did not see Yin Mo. She did not know if Yin Mo had left or was in another ward.


    She was not worried about Yin Mo. She just wanted to know Si Fan¡¯s current situation. It was very likely that Si Fan had hired someone to get Yin Rui into this situation


    Due to her cooperation with Mary, Si Fan¡¯s methods of attacking her were useless now. He could not destroy the Yin family, nor could he fight with Xintao. Si Fan could only look toward Yin Rui. Presumably, it would not be long before he would lure Yin Rui into taking drugs like in the original novel.


    Yin Xun frowned. Si Fan could not win against his opponent with his strength, so he relied on dirty tactics to deal with people. It was unbelievable that he was the male lead with such a persona. In the end, he even obtained Yin Mo¡¯s forgiveness and lived a happy life. It was ridiculous.


    Most importantly, because Si Fan had the halo of a protagonist, even if he did something illegal, he would not be punished. There would always be all kinds of coincidences that would prevent him from being caught. This was the most difficult part to deal with..

 Chapter 478 - Chapter 478: Are You Still Sleepy?

    Chapter 478: Are You Still Sleepy?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    For example, she had already contacted Zuo Liang about the matter of Mark¡¯s kidnapping. Zuo Liang essentially monitored the entire process but, in the end, because there was insufficient evidence, they could not take any measures against Si Fan.


    He only promised that he would pay extra attention when monitoring Si Fan in the future. Despite such an outrageous act, Si Fan did not receive any punishment.


    As such, Si Fan was more unscrupulous when he did things like this.


    From Mi Jin¡¯s friend to Mary¡¯s younger brother to Yin Rui, Si Fan¡¯s methods were endless.


    Fortunately, Yin Xun had noticed it early. It seemed that she had to think of a way to prevent Yin Rui from falling into his trap.


    Yin Xun followed the address given by Wu Li and arrived near the police station where Yin Rui was locked up. She parked the car and walked toward the entrance of the police station. When she arrived at the door, she saw Wu Li pacing back and forth.


    At this moment, Wu Li¡¯s face was filled with anxiety as she glanced around.


    ¡°Mom,¡± Yin Xun called out to Wu Li.


    Wu Li looked over when she heard the voice. When she saw Yin Xun, she smiled in relief and quickly walked over.


    ¡°Xun, your brother is in the police station now. Hurry up and find a way to bring him out! Your father is hospitalized. I didn¡¯t dare to him. What if he gets angry and damages his health? 1 could only ask for you to come.¡± Once Yin Xun arrived, Wu Li suddenly felt relieved and was not as nervous.


    Yin Xun comforted Wu Li and the two of them went in together.


    Things were better than she had expected. The gang of boys did not need to go to jail as long as they did not engage in prostitution.


    As for the gambling incident, the police only gave them a warning and got them to write a guarantee before they were released.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui¡¯s friends. They were indeed the same people she had asked Mary to investigate. From the looks of it, this was 100% Si Fan¡¯s doing.


    Before he left, Yin Rui even comforted his friends and said that it was fine and that they would meet again in the future.


    Yin Xun watched Yin Rui talk to those people and had no intention of interrupting. She could not show her hand now. She already knew the other party¡¯s identity. It would be bad if she alerted them.


    She watched Yin Rui talk to his friends until they were done. Finally, Yin Rui left with his family.


    Yin Xun and Wu Li brought Yin Rui home. Yin Rui knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not say a word on the way. Wu Li was so angry that she did not say anything either.


    After returning to the Yin residence, Yin Xun parked the car and wanted to go back to talk to Yin Rui. Unexpectedly, when she returned to the villa, she realized that Yin Rui had already returned to his room and locked the door.


    Wu Li was sitting on the sofa in the living room, wiping her tears. When she saw Yin Xun come in, she hurried over to her. ¡°Xun, quickly go and persuade your brother. His temper is getting worse and worse. He doesn¡¯t even listen to me anymore. He locked himself in his room the moment he entered the house.¡± ¡°Mom, don¡¯t worry. Leave this to me,¡± Yin Xun comforted Wu Li. She pulled Wu Li¡¯s arm and let her sit on the sofa while she dealt with the problem herself.


    After pouring Wu Li another glass of water, Yin Xun went to look for Yin Rui.


    When she arrived at the door of Yin Rui¡¯s room, she knocked a few times and said, ¡°Lil Rui, open the door, please. Let¡¯s talk.¡±


    After waiting for a while, there was no movement from the room. It seemed that Yin Rui did not want to talk to her.


    Yin Xun suppressed her temper and continued to knock on the door. ¡°I¡¯ll count to three. If you don¡¯t open the door, you¡¯ll bear the consequences. One, two¡­¡±


    Before she could say ¡°three¡±, the door opened in front of her, revealing Yin Rui¡¯s dejected face.


    ¡°Sister, I¡¯m exhausted now. Can you wait for me to rest first? I was in the police station all night yesterday. I¡¯m really tired.¡± Yin Rui could not even open his eyes. The dark circles around his eyes were obvious, and it was clear that he was not lying.


    ¡°Are you that sleepy now?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Yin Rui replied.


    Yin Xun nodded and turned to walk back to Wu Li. When Yin Rui saw Yin Xun leave, he was relieved. He thought to himself that his eldest sister indeed treated him the best. He planned to close the door and go back to sleep but was surprised to see Yin Xun return with a kettle.


    ¡°Sister, I¡¯m not thirsty.¡± Yin Rui thought that Yin Xun was asking him to drink water and felt a little flattered. He did not expect Yin Xun to care so much about him even though he had made a mistake. He quickly refused the offer.


    However, as soon as he finished speaking, the corners of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth curled up slightly into a smile. Then, she opened the lid of the pot, raised the kettle, and splashed the contents over Yin Rui¡¯s head.


    Fortunately, there was cold water inside. Yin Rui did not expect Yin Xun to suddenly splash water on him. He did not have time to dodge and was splashed with cold water.


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui and asked coolly, ¡°How is it? Are you still sleepy?¡±


    Yin Rui looked at Yin Xun in disbelief.. ¡°Sister, you¡­¡±

    Wu Li was also stunned. She looked at Yin Xun in shock and then at Yin Rui. When she saw Yin Rui¡¯s hair was dripping wet, a flash of pain appeared in her eyes. However, she did not say anything. She just watched the siblings.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you were sleepy? Then I¡¯ll wake you up.¡± Yin Xun raised her hand and grabbed Yin Rui by the ear, forcing him to follow her.


    Yin Rui was upset but he did not dare to say anything. He was more than 1.8 meters tall and was forced to bend over. He cooperated with Yin Xun, who was shorter than 1.7 meters, and walked out of the room. ¡°Sister, that hurts. Let¡¯s talk things out, okay? I¡¯m sorry, 1 know I was wrong!¡±


    He begged for mercy as he walked, but Yin Xun had no intention of letting him go-


    She dragged Yin Rui to Wu Li¡¯s side and finally let go of his ear. ¡°Sit down, I have something to tell you.¡±


    Yin Rui rubbed his ears which had gone red from being pinched. He sat beside Wu Li and started to complain. ¡°Mom, you should look out for Big Sister. She¡¯s so fierce. How can she get married in the future?¡±


    Wu Li rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, ¡°You still have the cheek to talk about your sister? Look at yourself. How old are you now? How could you do that kind of thing? You deserve a beating. If your sister didn¡¯t take care of you, I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll be smacked to heaven.¡±


    After scolding Yin Rui, Wu Li stopped talking.


    ¡°You¡¯ve grown up now. You¡¯ll be an adult in another year. It¡¯s time to plan out your life. Let me ask you, what do you plan to do in the future?¡± Yin Xun sat beside Yin Rui and asked him coldly.


    Yin Rui rubbed his ear which was still sore and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know. Anyway, our family is rich. I don¡¯t have to worry about my future. I just have to live my life. I can do whatever 1 want.¡±


    ¡°Our family is rich because Dad earned that wealth. It has nothing to do with you. Do you plan to rely on Dad¡¯s protection for the rest of your life? Money has to be earned. What if Dad can¡¯t earn money in the future? Are you just going to sit back and eat your fill?¡±


    ¡°Agh, what¡¯s there to be afraid of? Sis, aren¡¯t you able to earn money? Anyway, you¡¯re still here. I don¡¯t want the family¡¯s assets at all. They¡¯re all yours. Also, I heard about Xintao. You¡¯re so capable and can make a lot of money. Taking care of a younger brother is a cinch for you, right?


    ¡°You¡¯re so powerful that even Si Fan can¡¯t do anything to you. Even if I accidentally get into trouble in the future, you can just bail me out like today. Look at what you did. You¡¯re amazing.¡± Yin Rui looked at Yin Xun with admiration. Every word he said was to please Yin Xun.


    However, when Yin Xun heard this, she felt uncomfortable.


    Listening to Yin Rui¡¯s words, it seemed like he was planning to leech off his parents and then leech off his sister. When she thought of this, a surge of anger rose from the bottom of her heart. Yin Xun raised a hand and slapped Yin Rui over the head.


    Yin Rui yelped in pain. Then, he got up and moved aside.


    ¡°Sister, why are you still hitting me? I didn¡¯t talk back to you like I do with Dad. Did I say something wrong? Am I not allowed to say that you¡¯re amazing?!¡± Yin Rui covered the spot where he had been hit and looked at Yin Xun indignantly.


    Yin Xun did not get up. She leaned against the back of the sofa and frowned slightly as she looked at Yin Rui. She said in a deep voice, ¡°I¡¯m your sister. I¡¯m only helping you because you¡¯re my younger brother. It¡¯s not my obligation. You¡¯re a healthy grown-up boy. You should rely on your own strength to support yourself. What¡¯s the point of relying on others? Even if I don¡¯t give you a single drop of my earnings, you have no right to object.¡±


    She understood why Yin Rui thought that way now. He and Yin Mo were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. They had never faced hardship since young and had been protected too well. Hence, they felt that the world was all flowers and sunshine.


    In addition, Yin Cheng had given them whatever they wanted since they were kids. This created a misconception that Yin Xun was making money for them to spend just like Yin Cheng had.


    Alas, she was not a fool. So what if she had younger siblings? Since everyone had a pair of hands and feet, they should rely on their own strength to earn money.


    She would only help if someone was crippled.


    When Yin Rui heard her words, he looked confused. ¡°Our family doesn¡¯t lack money. Besides, you¡¯re so good at earning money. What¡¯s wrong with spending some of it on me? Any money 1 spend is nothing to you. 1 don¡¯t make a habit of burning money. I just eat and play a little. How much can I even spend?¡±


    Yin Xun frowned. ¡°It¡¯s my business whether 1 can earn money. Besides, do you think it¡¯s easy to earn money?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t it easy? You started Xintao from scratch. It hasn¡¯t even been long and you¡¯ve already earned so much money. To you, earning money is just a matter of making your move. I¡¯m just not interested in making money. If I were, I¡¯d be able to earn money in minutes,¡± Yin Rui said confidently..

 Chapter 480 - Chapter 480: A Bet

    Chapter 480: A Bet


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing Yin Rui¡¯s words, Yin Xun suddenly calmed down.


    Actually, she did not have high hopes for Yin Rui. She only hoped that Yin Rui could find a path that he liked. Whether it was sports, painting, or computing, she would support him as long as it was something serious, regardless of whether he could earn much money.


    If Yin Rui went down the right path, she would be willing to spend money on his development. However, if Yin Rui continued to act like a rich second-generation heir who had nothing to do every day and only knew how to find trouble, she would send Yin Rui out to be completely reformed without thinking twice.


    At the thought of this, Yin Xun suddenly had an idea.


    ¡°Earn money every second¡­¡± Yin Xun repeated Yin Rui¡¯s words. Then, she looked at Yin Rui and asked, ¡°Since you think it¡¯s so easy to earn money, how about we make a bet?¡±


    Yin Rui looked at Yin Xun vigilantly. He had always been afraid of his eldest sister.


    When he heard that Yin Xun wanted to make a bet with him, a bad premonition rose in his heart. He asked carefully, ¡°What kind of bet?¡±


    ¡°We¡¯ll bet money. Didn¡¯t you say that it¡¯s easy to earn money? Then let¡¯s bet on whether you can earn the amount I asked for within a certain period of time. I¡¯ll give you a sum of money as a startup fund. I¡¯ll give you as much as 1 took from the Yin family when I started Xintao. 1 don¡¯t care what business you do. As long as you earn twice the amount I gave you in half a month, you win.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Yin Rui looked at Yin Xun suspiciously. ¡°Since it¡¯s a bet, what¡¯s the wager?¡±


    ¡°As expected of someone who got arrested for gambling. Your first reaction is to look for a wager.¡± Yin Xun scoffed and continued, ¡°If you win, then no matter what you do in the future, we won¡¯t trouble you. Not only will we ignore your actions, but 1 will also help you resolve any trouble you get into. If you ever lack money, I will give you some. The bet will be applicable for life.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. ¡°If you lose, you¡¯re not allowed to have any contact with your scoundrel friends anymore. At the same time, you have to listen to your family. You can¡¯t say no to whatever Dad and Mom ask you to do. Study obediently and take over the company in the future.¡±


    Yin Rui did not agree immediately. Instead, he pondered in his heart. This bet seemed very big, but when he thought about it carefully, there was actually nothing too bad about it for him.


    Even if he lost, things would be the same as they were now. Even now, he was forced by his family to do something he did not want to.


    However, if he won, he would be completely free in the future. He could do whatever he wanted. If he got into trouble, someone would cover for him. He did not have to worry about money. This bet did him no harm at all.


    Still¡­


    ¡°There¡¯s no proof. What if you go back on your word? Or when I¡¯m doing business, what if you secretly cause trouble for me? How can you guarantee the fairness of this bet?¡± Yin Rui looked at Yin Xun. He was already tempted.


    ¡°It looks like you¡¯ve agreed.¡± Yin Xun smiled. ¡°If you want fairness, that¡¯s simple. We can sign a contract. If I break the contract, you win.¡±


    Yin Rui was still a little hesitant.


    Yin Xun struck while the iron was hot. ¡°Why? Are you afraid of such a small matter? If you don¡¯t dare to accept the challenge, just say it. After all, you¡¯re young. I can understand. Since you don¡¯t have the guts to gamble, you¡¯ll be obedient in the future.¡±


    When dealing with Yin Rui, nothing was more effective than provocation. Yin Xun knew this very well.


    As expected, after Yin Xun¡¯s provocation, Yin Rui finally agreed. ¡°Fine, I¡¯ll take the bet. I meant what 1 said. It¡¯s not a big deal. I¡¯ll definitely win.¡±


    ¡°I hope so.¡± Yin Xun smiled and turned to walk upstairs to the study. There was a printer there. ¡°The bet starts today. I¡¯ll go print the contract. You can think about it carefully during this period. Once you sign the contract, you won¡¯t have a chance to go back on your word.¡±


    Yin Rui said fiercely, ¡°Only a coward goes back on their word. Don¡¯t be smug. I¡¯ll definitely win!¡±


    Wu Li could not help but worry as she listened to the siblings¡¯ conversation.


    She advised Yin Rui, ¡°Lil Rui, your sister is a top student with loads of work experience. You can¡¯t beat her that easily. Why don¡¯t you just give in? Your sister won¡¯t harm you, so you can listen to her. You only see your sister¡¯s current glory, but do you know how much she suffered in the past¡­¡±


    Wu Li tried her best to persuade him, but Yin Rui simply fell silent.


    However, Yin Xun did not give him a chance to hesitate. Soon, she came down with the printed contract. ¡°Yin Rui, in the business world, relationships are not important. We only talk about money. After signing the contract, if you dare to go back on your word, I could sue you in court..¡±

    ¡°You think I¡¯ll regret it?¡± Yin Rui snorted in disdain. He took the pen and contract and signed his name instantly. ¡°You¡¯re looking down on me. Although I¡¯m not good at studying and like to fool around, my skills are not bad at all.¡±


    With that, he pressed his thumbprint on the contract on his own accord.


    ¡°Not bad, you know the process of signing a contract.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    Yin Rui rolled his eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t underestimate me.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Rui had finished signing, Yin Xun flashed a satisfied smile.


    She kept the contract and said to Yin Rui, ¡°The contract is in effect now. 1¡¯11 transfer the money to you later. Remember the time limit. Half a month. If you can¡¯t earn the amount 1 asked for in half a month, then you have to listen to us obediently in the future.¡±


    ¡°Oh, right, 1 forgot to tell you just now. During this period, you can¡¯t ask anyone you know for help. You can¡¯t stay in the house, and you can¡¯t take anything away from home¡­¡± Yin Xun started to make requests for Yin Rui.


    Yin Rui did not expect there to be so many restrictions in the end. He immediately panicked and asked, ¡°Why are you only saying this now? No, we¡¯ve already signed the contract. You were the one who said that the contract was already in effect when we signed it. You can¡¯t change it midway; you can¡¯t continue to make requests for me!¡±


    ¡°You didn¡¯t ask. Shouldn¡¯t you be the one paying attention to such things? Why should I remind you?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows and pretended to be innocent.


    ¡°Why, you!¡± Yin Rui was losing his cool. ¡°Sis, you¡¯re the one who went back on your word first. You can¡¯t fault me. Anyway, 1¡¯11 follow the contract. 1¡¯11 earn twice as much in half a month. I don¡¯t care about anything else.¡±


    Wu Li looked at the quarreling siblings with a strange expression. She opened her mouth, but in the end, she did not say anything.


    A thought occurred to her, and when she saw that the two of them were talking so seriously, she quietly got up and walked to her room.


    Yin Xun saw Wu Li leave, but she did not take that to heart. She picked up the contract and pointed at the requirements on it, indicating for Yin Rui to take a look. ¡°It¡¯s written clearly in black and white. You didn¡¯t read it carefully when you signed the contract. So, whether you want to or not, you have to do as 1 say.¡±


    ¡°You cheated!¡± Yin Rui saw that the request was exactly as Yin Xun had said. ¡°I trusted you, how could you lie to me?! Are you my biological sister or not? How can you cheat your younger brother like this?¡±


    Yin Xun complained in her heart. ¡®It¡¯s because you¡¯re my biological sibling that 1 should give you a complete childhood. Trick you? This is just the beginning. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to complain in the future.¡¯


    However, she would not say these words directly to Yin Rui.


    She sneered and said, ¡°Trust? Lie to you? Yin Rui, do you think the outside world is that sweet? So what if 1 lied? For the sake of individual gains, even your best friend can fall out with you. As your sister, I¡¯ll give you a piece of advice. When you go out to do business, remember to be wary of everything. Otherwise, you¡¯ll be the only one who suffers in the end.¡±


    However, it was obvious that Yin Rui did not take her words to heart. He scoffed, ¡°Do you think everyone is as scheming as you? My friends will never betray me. Even when they entered the police station, they were covering for me. Those who got betrayed by their friends should reflect on themselves first.¡±


    Yin Rui was being stubborn. Yin Xun saw that it was useless to persuade him, so she stopped arguing with Yin Rui about this matter.


    Under such circumstances, she could only make him suffer a loss to understand what she meant.


    Glancing at Yin Rui, Yin Xun took out her phone and transferred the money to Yin Rui. ¡°I¡¯ve already transferred the money to your account. I don¡¯t care what you do next. Just don¡¯t violate the rules.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s so much!¡± Yin Rui took out his phone and looked at the money that had suddenly appeared in his account. He was a little shocked. ¡°I can easily do it with so much money. Just you wait.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m looking forward to the day. But don¡¯t forget, you have to double your earnings. Alright, since it¡¯s already established, go back and pack up. It¡¯s time to leave. As your elder sister, I¡¯ll show you mercy this time. I¡¯ll relax your restrictions. You can bring some clothes and some basic daily necessities. Go.¡±


    Yin Rui rolled his eyes at Yin Xun and walked toward his room with a cold snort.


    After Yin Rui left the living room, Wu Li came out of her room. She had been listening to the conversation between Yin Xun and Yin Rui at the door..

 Chapter 482 - Chapter 482: Preparing To Leave

    Chapter 482: Preparing To Leave


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    With Yin Rui around, it was not a good idea for her to interrupt. Now that Yin Rui had left, she walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and asked worriedly, ¡°Xun, is this a good idea? After all, he¡¯s still young and doesn¡¯t know what¡¯s right and wrong. You gave him so much money directly and left him alone. What if he gets cheated or uses the money to do something bad? Can¡¯t we use a gentler method to discipline him?¡±


    ¡°Mom, he¡¯s going to be an adult soon. Do you think he¡¯s still young? He even dares to gamble with his friends and stay out all night. If we don¡¯t do anything now, it¡¯ll be too late when he really does something irreversible. He¡¯ll have to face this sooner or later. Now is the best opportunity,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Actually, there was a reason why she did this. With Si Fan watching from the sidelines, for the safety of the Yin family, she had to force Yin Rui to grow up quickly.


    While Si Fan was not completely focused on attacking the Yin family, she still had time now. It was a good opportunity to train Yin Rui.


    ¡°But are you really going to sue him for that contract?¡± Wu Li looked at the contract in Yin Xun¡¯s hand and was still worried.


    Yin Mo had already been chased out of the Yin family. Now, only Yin Rui and Yin Xun were left. She did not want to see anything happen to these two children.


    Yin Xun waved the contract in his hand and smiled slightly as she said, ¡°This contract? Don¡¯t worry, Mom. This thing can¡¯t really bring him to court. It¡¯s just to scare him. Anyway, Yin Rui doesn¡¯t understand these things. It¡¯s a good opportunity to let him know how important knowledge is. When he suffers because he doesn¡¯t have enough knowledge, he might study harder.¡±


    Right now, Yin Rui was too averse to studying. Forcing him to study would only backfire. It was better to use this matter to lower his guard.


    She knew that Yin Rui was a good child. It was just that he did not have any sense of responsibility right now.


    In the original novel, Yin Rui was persecuted by Si Fan and forced to take drugs. In the end, he relied on his willpower to quit his drug addiction and even broke into Si Fan¡¯s house to save Yin Mo.


    If Yin Mo had not been so stupid, they would have managed to escape. How could a person like Yin Rui be called worthless?


    Yin Xun believed that as long as she guided him well, Yin Rui would develop wonderfully in the future.


    After all, his perseverance alone was not something ordinary people could compare to.


    ¡°That¡¯s true. It¡¯s time to teach him a lesson,¡± Wu Li sighed and said helplessly.


    While the two of them were talking, Yin Rui had already packed his things and came out with his school bag.


    ¡°I¡¯ve packed my things and I¡¯m leaving. Is there anything else?¡± Yin Rui walked up to Yin Xun and snapped angrily.


    Yin Xun was a little surprised to see that Yin Rui had taken so little stuff.


    She thought that with Yin Rui¡¯s personality, he would at least fill up a full suitcase. Ignoring anything else, just his game console alone would take up a lot of space.


    ¡°What do you have in there? Open the bag and let me check.¡± Yin Xun was worried about Yin Rui.


    Yin Rui frowned and took his bag down impatiently. He stuffed it into Yin Xun¡¯s arms and said angrily, ¡°Go ahead and investigate. To think that I¡¯ve always been on your side in the past¡­ When anything happened in the family, I told you immediately. In the end, you treated me like this. Hmph, it¡¯s tragic.¡±


    Yin Xun ignored him and opened Yin Rui¡¯s bag to check.


    Yin Xun was very pleased that he did not secretly hide any extra money. It seemed that Yin Rui had some backbone.


    However¡­ She looked at the two gaming consoles in the bag and the corners of her mouth twitched. This guy thought he was on vacation. Other than the gaming consoles, there were all kinds of snacks. He did not even take a change of clothes.


    She said speechlessly, ¡°You¡¯re going to bring this with you when you leave?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Why wouldn¡¯t I? It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know how important a game console is to me. If I buy a new game console, I¡¯ll have to reset my progress. I worked hard to get these statistics. And these¡­¡±


    Yin Rui pointed at the snacks and said, ¡°These are my favorite imported snacks. You can¡¯t buy them outside.¡±


    ¡°You didn¡¯t bring a change of clothes and some daily necessities?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Anyway, 1 have money. With this much money, what¡¯s wrong with buying a few new clothes? Besides, didn¡¯t you give me a deadline of half a month? You said that you wouldn¡¯t care about me no matter what I do in this half a month.¡± Yin Rui snatched the game console and bag back. He packed them up and hugged them tightly as though afraid Yin Xun would not let him bring these things..

    Yin Xun sighed softly. Yin Rui would definitely be at a disadvantage like this. However, it was better to let him understand it himself.


    ¡°You¡¯re allowed to take these things with you. Since you¡¯ve already chosen what to take, you can go. However, I¡¯ll remind you one last time. It¡¯s not so easy to do business. I advise you to save your money. Otherwise, if you don¡¯t have money in the end, even if you come back crying and begging, I won¡¯t help you,¡± Yin Xun warned him coldly.


    Yin Rui carried his bag and took an apple from the table. He took a bite and said in a muffled voice, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. Anyway, I know what I have to do.¡±


    ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll wait for the day you succeed.¡± Yin Xun nodded and did not say anything else.


    Yin Rui made a face at Yin Xun, then took the apple and quickly left the Yin residence without saying goodbye.


    ¡°Xun, will he be alright?¡± After Yin Rui left, Wu Li looked in the direction of the door and asked Yin Xun worriedly.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll send someone to keep an eye on him. There won¡¯t be any danger.¡± Yin Xun took out her phone and then said to Wu Li, ¡°Mom, have a good rest. 1 have to leave too. You have to understand that spoiling a child too much will only raise a useless person. When it¡¯s time to let go, you have to let him go. Don¡¯t secretly take care of him when I¡¯m not paying attention. Otherwise, this plan will be useless.¡±


    When Yin Xun saw through her thoughts, Wu Li¡¯s face immediately turned red. She covered her face and said, ¡°Alright, I understand. Go ahead.¡±


    Yin Xun was still worried, so she reminded Wu Li again. Only when Wu Li repeatedly promised that she would not secretly help Yin Rui did she leave.


    When she reached her car, she was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, she took out her phone and called Mary first.


    ¡°President Yin, did something happen again?¡± When Mary received Yin Xun¡¯s call, her first thought was that Si Fan must be looking for trouble with Yin Xun again.


    ¡°Mary, you¡¯ve been dealing with celebrities recently. They must be familiar with the paparazzi. Help me ask for a reliable paparazzi. I need help to monitor someone. Money is not a problem. I just need reports on the person¡¯s situation at any time,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Mary froze for a moment before she asked, ¡°President Yin, you want the paparazzi to help you spy on someone? They¡¯re certainly the best at prying into people¡¯s privacy. Could it be that you want the paparazzi to spy on Fang Yao?¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    Why would she pry into Fang Yao¡¯s privacy? She had no enmity with Fang Yao.


    However, Mary¡¯s words gave her a revelation. The paparazzi were definitely the best at staying hidden and digging out the privacy of celebrities. In that case, could she also use the paparazzi to dig up dirt on Si Fan?


    If Si Fan¡¯s illegal deeds were exposed, it would save her a lot of effort.


    ¡°President Yin, why aren¡¯t you saying anything? Don¡¯t tell me that you are really going to pry into President Fang¡¯s privacy¡­ Are you two really together?¡± Mary asked in shock.


    ¡°What are you thinking? How could we be together? I¡¯m talking about Yin Rui. I¡¯ve chased him out of the house for now. I want to know what he¡¯s doing and who he¡¯s interacting with at all times. 1 think it¡¯s best to let the paparazzi do this. This kid isn¡¯t vigilant, so it¡¯s not difficult to tail him. Help me find someone who¡¯s willing to do this job. Then, pay attention to whether Yin Rui encounters any danger. If there¡¯s any danger, inform me immediately.¡±


    Yin Rui had many of Si Fan¡¯s men close to him. They were definitely waiting for an opportunity to attack Yin Rui.


    Now that she had pushed Yin Rui out, this was a good opportunity for them to make a move.


    Hiding was not a solution. Si Fan would definitely think of a way to use someone to get close to Yin Rui. It was better to take this opportunity to lure Si Fan¡¯s people out and capture them in one fell swoop to eliminate the source of the danger.


    When Mary heard that it was about Yin Rui, she did not ask any more questions. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, leave this to me. I know a paparazzo who¡¯s especially popular in the industry. Once he makes a move, all the celebrities will basically be at his mercy. He¡¯s skilled and only cares about money. He¡¯s also very professional. I¡¯ll try to talk to him.¡±


    ¡°Thank you for your hard work.¡± Yin Xun was slightly relieved to hear Mary¡¯s words.


    She was about to hang up the phone when she heard Mary speak again. ¡°President Yin, you can¡¯t blame me for being nosy. 1 feel that President Fang likes you.¡±


    Yin Xun lowered her head slightly and asked indifferently, ¡°Oh?¡±


    ¡°The way he looks at you is too passionate. You know that my only strong point is reading people¡¯s expressions. After all, this is something an assistant has to have. Other than that, when you went to buy the medicine that day, I barely told him about it and he rushed out before 1 could finish speaking.. If that isn¡¯t enough proof, then what is? Also¡­¡±

 Chapter 484 - Chapter 484: Liu Cheng Was Here

    Chapter 484: Liu Cheng Was Here


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As Mary spoke, Fang Yao¡¯s face gradually appeared in Yin Xun¡¯s mind.


    Sometimes, he looked exasperated, sometimes he smiled, and finally, she saw the day he protected her at the Haunted House.


    Speaking of that, his injuries had yet to fully recover.


    Then, Yin Xun thought of the day she had a fever. Before she fainted, she saw Fang Yao suddenly appear in front of her and catch her¡­


    ¡°Mary, 1 still have something to do. Remember to look for the paparazzi as soon as possible.¡± Yin Xun tried to ignore what Mary said after that. At this moment, her mind was filled with Fang Yao.


    Before Mary could finish, Yin Xun interrupted her. She gave her one last reminder before hanging up.


    Yin Xun stood motionlessly beside the car while holding her phone. At this moment, her heart was in a mess. She did not know what was going on.


    Mary¡¯s words kept echoing in her mind. Fang Yao liked her? To be honest, she had this feeling in her heart, but she forced herself not to think about it.


    Mary¡¯s words were like a hammer to her heart. She was not a timid person; she would fight for whatever she wanted. However, Fang Yao was an exception.


    They were business partners and important investors. Most importantly, Fang Yao knew a lot of her secrets. If their relationship broke down, it would be a devastating blow to the company.


    She did not dare to take the risk. It had not been easy for her company to reach this stage. If an accident happened, all her previous efforts would be wasted.


    The reason she had agreed to Lin Chan¡¯s request and agreed to not be together with Fang Yao was to give herself a reason not to be tempted. As long as the two of them maintained a proper distance, there would be no problems with their future cooperation.


    In fact, as long as she wanted to, the contract could be voided at any time. With her current power, she did not need to worry about Lin Chan¡¯s so-called compensation.


    Yin Xun stood on the spot for a long time. She had thousands of thoughts in her heart, but in the end, they all turned into one sentence. She would take it one step at a time and leave everything to fate.


    Her current goal was to start her career. Nothing else was important.


    As if comforting herself, Yin Xun nodded heavily twice. In fact, this kind of thing not only depended on what she thought, but also on what Fang Yao thought.


    However, when she thought of Fang Yao¡¯s outstanding ability and good looks, Yin Xun could not help but smile. Who would not be moved by such a perfect man? Even if she liked him, that was only human nature. There was no need to deliberately suppress her feelings.


    After thinking it through, Yin Xun drove back to the villa in the suburbs.


    When she reached the door, she saw a man standing at the entrance of her courtyard with his back facing her. He was holding a large bouquet of flowers in his arms and looking up at the courtyard.


    ¡°Who are you looking for?¡± Yin Xun slowly drove the car to the door. That person was so focused that he did not notice that a car was driving over from behind him.


    Only when Yin Xun called out to the man did he turn around.


    When Yin Xun saw the man¡¯s appearance, she was a little surprised. ¡°Liu Cheng?¡±


    At this moment, the man holding a bouquet of red roses was Liu Ying¡¯s brother, Liu Cheng. He had dressed up before coming. His hair was combed and secured with hair gel. He was wearing a custom-made suit and pointed leather shoes.


    The moment Liu Cheng saw Yin Xun, he revealed a smile that he thought was very dashing. He raised his hand to smooth his hair and greeted her. ¡°Yin Xun, you¡¯re back.¡±


    His current appearance made Yin Xun think of one thing ¡ª greasy and powdered.


    Liu Cheng looked like an ostentatious weasel. Yin Xun did not even know why she felt this way. In any case, she felt uncomfortable no matter how she looked at it. That look was too greasy.


    Yin Xun had no intention of getting out of the car. She leaned against the car door and asked Liu Cheng coldly, ¡°Why are you looking for me?¡±


    She had a bad impression of Liu Cheng. In the past, the two of them had an argument the first time they met. Later, she heard from Liu Ying that he had fallen for her for some reason. It was simply baffling.


    ¡°I heard about Xintao. 1 didn¡¯t expect Xintao to be your company. Xintao just went online today. I¡¯m here to throw a celebration for you,¡± Liu Cheng said as he handed the flowers to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun only took a glance and did not want to open the door to receive the flowers.


    The bouquet of flowers was too big. Liu Cheng could not stuff it in through the window, and Yin Xun would not open the car door. He stood there awkwardly holding the bouquet of flowers, not knowing what to do.


    ¡°Thank you. 1¡¯11 accept your kindness, but please forget about the gift. As long as our companies can continue to cooperate smoothly, that¡¯s better than anything else.¡± Who celebrates with roses, anyway?


    When Yin Xun saw the roses, he knew what Liu Cheng¡¯s real intention was..

 Chapter 485 - Chapter 485: Whats Your Relationship?

    Chapter 485: What¡¯s Your Relationship?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Thinking of what Liu Ying said about Liu Cheng wanting to woo her, Yin Xun could not help but feel helpless.


    This reminded her of when Xing Cheng chased after her. The current Liu Cheng was probably like Xing Cheng, approaching her with this kind of purpose.


    However, she could sense that Liu Cheng did not have any particularly ill intentions. She would not attack a friendly person. Since the other party was polite, she should remain polite too.


    Liu Cheng was not fazed by Yin Xun¡¯s rejection. He continued to ask, ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to invite me in?¡±


    ¡°Xun, you¡¯re back.¡± Yin Xun was about to refuse when she heard Fang Yao call out to her.


    She turned around and saw Fang Yao walking over.


    ¡°Since you¡¯re back, why don¡¯t you come over? I¡¯ve been waiting for you for a long time. Tonight¡¯s dinner is all your favorites. If you¡¯re any later, the food will get cold.¡± Fang Yao acted as if he did not see Liu Cheng. He ignored him and walked straight to Yin Xun. He placed his hand on the roof of the car and bent down to look Yin Xun straight in the eye.


    ¡°Who is he?¡± Liu Cheng¡¯s expression changed the moment he saw Fang Yao. He looked at Fang Yao warily.


    His intuition told him that the man in front of him had an extraordinary relationship with Yin Xun.


    ¡°Who am I to Xun¡­¡± Fang Yao pretended to be embarassed and looked at Yin Xun with a smile. He did not elaborate.


    This was the first time Yin Xun had seen such an expression on Fang Yao¡¯s face. She was amused and wanted to laugh, but she held it in.


    Fang Yao could tell that Yin Xun was holding back laughter. He rolled his eyes at her and turned to the side, blocking Liu Cheng¡¯s vision of Yin Xun.


    ¡°Yao, let me introduce you. This is Yin Corporation¡¯s business partner, the eldest young master of the Liu family, Liu Cheng. Don¡¯t misunderstand. He only visited to celebrate Xintao¡¯s online release. He doesn¡¯t have any other intentions. Isn¡¯t that right, Mr. Liu?¡± Yin Xun suppressed her laughter and cooperated with Fang Yao to introduce Liu Cheng.


    Fang Yao showed a look of understanding. Then, he turned around and raised his hand, making a gesture to shake Liu Cheng¡¯s hand. ¡°So you¡¯re my dear Xun¡¯s business partner. Would you like to have a meal with us?¡±


    ¡°But you must be very busy. I heard from Xun about that. Since that¡¯s the case, I won¡¯t hold you back for dinner. Take care. In the future, when I have time, I¡¯ll treat you to a meal with Xun,¡± Fang Yao said with a fake smile.


    Liu Cheng was a little embarrassed. Fang Yao had said that he wanted to treat him to a meal, but he rejected on his behalf before he could answer.


    It was obvious that he did not want him to stay for dinner. Liu Cheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something. He never heard Liu Ying say that Yin Xun already had a boyfriend. Moreover, from the looks of it, they seemed to have been together for a long time.


    He was a little grudging. He was sure that when he and Yin Xun negotiated a collaboration back then, Yin Xun did not have a boyfriend yet. How could things change so fast?


    He felt that something was wrong.


    Yin Xun echoed Fang Yao¡¯s words. ¡°Mr. Liu, I¡¯m sorry, but I still have something on, so 1 can¡¯t entertain you.¡±


    Their implication of chasing him away was obvious.


    Although Liu Cheng was unwilling, he still cared about his dignity. Since Yin Xun had already said this much, it would be lame if he did not leave.


    He wanted to say something, but Fang Yao kept staring at him, making him feel uncomfortable.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll come to see you in a few days. I¡¯ll leave first.¡± Liu Cheng took a deep look at Yin Xun and Fang Yao before turning around and leaving.


    Not long after he walked away, he turned back to glance a few times, but Yin Xun and Fang Yao did not look at him. They seemed to be talking intimately.


    Walking to an empty place, Liu Cheng threw the roses into the trash can in frustration. He took out a cigarette and looked in the direction of Yin Xun¡¯s house as he smoked. His gaze was complicated. After smoking one cigarette, he extinguished the sparks before leaving the neighborhood.


    Yin Xun did not take Liu Cheng¡¯s visit to heart at all.


    She looked at Fang Yao with a faint smile and imitated Fang Yao¡¯s tone. ¡°Dear Yao, what are we eating today?¡±


    ¡°How about a Manchu-Han Imperial Feast?¡± Fang Yao said.


    ¡°Sounds good. I¡¯ll give it a try, then.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    ¡°Dream on. We¡¯re having a fitness meal. It¡¯s good enough to have meat to eat.¡± As soon as Liu Cheng left, Fang Yao returned to his usual calm self. He gently patted the car door and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Go and park the car. 1 have something to tell you.¡±


    ¡°Oh,¡± Yin Xun replied obediently and drove the car to the garage. After parking the car, she came out and saw Shu Yi waving at her from the door.


    Yin Xun glanced at Fang Yao, who was standing at the door, and walked toward Shu Yi without hesitation.


    ¡°What did you find?¡± Yin Xun asked with a serious expression.


    Actually, when Yin Mo left Yin Cheng¡¯s ward, Yin Xun had sent Shu Yi a message, asking her to follow Yin Mo and find out why Yin Mo was at the hospital..

 Chapter 486 - Chapter 486: Really Having A Meal

    Chapter 486: Really Having A Meal


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Unless she was mistaken, it should be related to Si Xia.


    ¡°Si Xia seems to have been injured by Si Fan. The situation is very serious now. It seems like she needs an organ transplant.¡± The bodyguard told Yin Xun everything she had heard, including the fact that Si Fan knew that Yin Mo had severed ties with the Yin family and that Yin Mo had taken the initiative to offer her heart to Si Xia.


    ¡°¡­ Si Fan beat up Si Xia?¡± Yin Xun was a little shocked.


    In her impression, whether it was in the original novel or the situation she was seeing now, Si Fan had always protected Si Xia. No matter what happened, he would never lose his temper with Si Xia.


    With Si Fan¡¯s temper, it was more likely for him to hit Yin Mo.


    Hit Yin Mo¡­ Yin Xun suddenly thought of Yin Mo¡¯s injuries at the hospital. It seemed like Si Fan was really furious this time, so he hit the two women closest to him.


    However, there was something else that puzzled her.


    Was she going to get the plot point of Yin Mo giving Si Xia her heart so soon? However, she remembered that in the original novel, the heart transplant was clearly done at a later part of the plot¡ªit was done when Yin Mo was pregnant.


    Could it be that her intervention had caused the trajectory to deviate?


    However, that did not seem right either. Originally, the genre of this world was related to romance and tragedy. Ever since Yin Xun came, it became more related to career and business.


    Under her interference, the people who were originally injured or dead managed to escape unharmed. The trajectory had long been deviated. Why was Yin Mo still following the plot of the original novel?


    Could it be that Yin Mo¡¯s and her storylines had separated? If she was not affected by the changes, would Yin Mo and Si Fan still have a love affair later on?


    Yin Xun was a little speechless. She had worked so hard to help everyone avoid their tragic fate, but Yin Mo insisted on going against her. She could not persuade her no matter what she tried.


    This reminded her of a saying, ¡°Let go of the feelings of helping others. The person who is helped may not be grateful. They might even blame you for interfering.¡± These words were simply too fitting for Yin Mo.


    ¡°When did they say they would do the heart transplant?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Shu Yi shook her head. ¡°No, it¡¯s just that from what the doctor said, Si Xia¡¯s condition is very critical now. The sooner the better. Oh right, there¡¯s one more thing.¡±


    Shu Yi suddenly clapped her hands. ¡°Yin Mo seems to have used this matter to threaten Si Fan to marry her. Only after getting the marriage certificate will she give her heart to Si Xia.¡±


    It seemed that in order to marry Si Fan, Yin Mo did not even care about the persona she had created and even resorted to threats. What was so good about Si Fan that she was willing to give up her heart just to be with him? Yin Xun really did not understand Yin Mo¡¯s thoughts.


    ¡°Alright, 1 understand. Go and rest.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she let Shu Yi go back to rest while she walked outside.


    Heart transplant surgery was not easy. Even if Yin Mo accepted it willingly, Si Fan had to be well-prepared before he could start it.


    After all, it is a serious crime to take the heart of a healthy person.


    Even if Si Fan could cover the sky with one hand, he would still have some concerns and would need to make some preparations.


    During this period of time, Yin Mo¡¯s life would probably be more difficult than ever. If nothing unexpected happened, she might experience the feeling of being imprisoned and tortured in advance.


    How could Si Fan let himself be threatened by Yin Mo? Especially when Yin Mo was the woman he looked down on the most.


    Yin Mo had humiliated him. Before the surgery, he would definitely torture Yin Mo. As long as Yin Mo did not die and her heart was still usable, it was fine for him. This had happened in the original text.


    It was no wonder Blue Fox did not make any big moves lately. Si Fan was handling Si Xia¡¯s matter. This was good news for Yin Xun.


    As she pondered about this, Yin Xun walked to the door. Fang Yao was on the phone with someone. Although Yin Xun could not tell who it was, he had a smile on his face. He seemed to be in a good mood.


    ¡°You said you had something to tell me. What is it?¡± Yin Xun stood quietly at the side for a while until Fang Yao finished speaking and put away his phone. Only then did she step forward to ask.


    Fang Yao looked at her and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go eat first. We¡¯ll talk about this after dinner. The food will get cold.¡±


    Yin Xun was surprised. ¡°You really came to call me over for dinner?¡±


    ¡°What else could it be?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.


    Yin Xun lowered her head and complained softly, ¡°How would I know? I¡¯m not a worm living in your stomach..¡±

    Fang Yao saw Yin Xun¡¯s reaction and heard Yin Xun¡¯s quiet complaints.


    There was a smile in his eyes, but he did not say anything.


    When Yin Xun saw that Fang Yao remained quiet, she stopped talking too. For some reason, she felt a little unhappy. She could not say why she felt that way, so she simply stopped talking.


    The atmosphere fell silent for a moment. Only the sound of children playing in the distance and the cries of birds hiding somewhere could be heard.


    It was quiet as they walked. When the two of them arrived at Fang Yao¡¯s house, Fang Yao finally spoke. He said casually, ¡°Liu Cheng came to look for you just now. It seems like he has some hidden motive.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Liu Ying said that he fancies me and wants to woo me.¡±


    Fang Yao stopped in his tracks and stared into Yin Xun¡¯s eyes. ¡°Then what do you think?¡±


    ¡°Of course¡­¡± Yin Xun was about to say that she was not interested in him when she suddenly thought of the situation earlier.


    She did not ask Fang Yao to speak up for her, but Fang Yao said something like that anyway.


    ¡°Why did you suddenly speak up for me just now?¡± Yin Xun felt a tinge of anticipation in her heart, although she did not know what she was looking forward to hearing.


    ¡°If you help me once, 1 should help you in return. Isn¡¯t that what they call repaying a debt of gratitude?¡± Fang Yao thought for a moment and finally came up with the answer of ¡°repaying a debt of gratitude¡±.


    ¡°¡­In that case, you sure know how to repay kindness.¡± Yin Xun pursed her lips. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little frustrated.


    She lowered her head and saw a small stone under her feet. She raised her leg and kicked it to the side.


    ¡°Young Master, Miss Yin, both of you are back. Come and eat quickly. Everything is ready.¡± The butler was watering the flowers in the courtyard when he saw the two people standing at the door. He called out to them with a laugh.


    Just as Yin Xun felt like she did not want to continue talking to Fang Yao, she heard the butler¡¯s voice.


    She took a deep breath, adjusted her expression, and walked toward the butler. ¡°Uncle Butler, why does it seem like you¡¯re watering the flowers whenever I see you?¡±


    The butler laughed as he said, ¡°Miss Yin, there are so many types of flowers you have sent over. Some of them will thrive even if you water them only once every half-month, but some of them need to be watered every day. Some of these cannot be exposed to the sun too. 1 just moved out these pots. I want to take advantage of the evening to bask in the sun myself. 1 have to move them back into the house tomorrow morning.


    ¡°Hurry up and go eat.¡± With that, the butler put down the watering can and led Yin Xun toward the dining room.


    When Fang Yao saw Yin Xun following the butler, he could tell that Yin Xun did not want to continue the conversation with him. He tilted his head slightly and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. He hurried after Yin Xun.


    ¡°From the looks of it, Liu Cheng doesn¡¯t seem to have any intention of giving up. If he comes looking for you again, what do you plan to do?¡± Fang Yao asked indifferently.


    ¡°You shouldn¡¯t fall out with him for the time being. Firstly, this isn¡¯t a big deal. Secondly, your two families are working together. This is a critical moment for Donggang Modern City. It¡¯s better to avoid trouble. When Modern City is completed, you can deal with him as you please.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s words made sense. If Liu Cheng kept being nice to her, she really should not lose her temper.


    Yin Xun gritted her teeth and complained in her heart. What was wrong with Fang Yao all of a sudden? Could he not tell that she did not want to talk about this? However, she did not want Fang Yao to see through her thoughts and suppressed the frustration in her heart.


    She looked at Fang Yao calmly and asked, ¡°How do you think I should handle this?¡±


    ¡°If you need it¡­¡± Fang Yao smiled and looked at Yin Xun. ¡°I can be your shield.¡±


    Shield? Is that all? Yin Xun was even more displeased.


    She turned her head and looked deeply at Fang Yao before rejecting his offer. ¡°Thank you, but there¡¯s no need. 1 can handle this myself.¡±


    When the butler, who was leading the way, heard the conversation between the two people behind him, he muttered gloomily in his heart. Why did these two suddenly look like they had eaten gunpowder? They were acting completely differently from usual.


    What was wrong with them? Why could they not sit down and talk things out? They were throwing a tantrum like children.


    ¡°Young Master, Miss Yin, what¡¯s wrong with you two? I sense that both of you are not in a good mood.¡± The butler smiled as he asked them.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine,¡± Fang Yao and Yin Xun replied in unison.


    The butler,¡±¡­¡±


    During the meal, Fang Yao and Yin Xun were both thinking about their own things. Neither of them spoke, and the meal was a quiet affair. The butler at the side had been paying attention to their attitudes. He looked left and right. There was indeed something going on between them and he could not help but feel worried.


    He pondered for a moment and quietly turned to leave the dining room. After a while, he walked over with a neat little box..

    Chapter 488: You Want This Person?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The butler walked over to Yin Xun¡¯s side and placed the box in front of her. He laughed as he said, ¡°Miss Yin, this is the gift that our Young Master prepared for you. He prepared it a long time ago, but never passed it to you. It seems that he¡¯s forgotten about it yet again, so 1 took the liberty to bring it over for you.¡±


    After saying that, he turned to look at Fang Yao and asked him with a smile, ¡°Young Master, you won¡¯t blame me for making this decision, right?¡±


    ¡°Of course not¡­¡± The corners of Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched. Who did the butler learn this from? The butler had already passed the item to Yin Xun, and only now was he asking if Fang Yao minded. Could he even ask for it back in front of Yin Xun¡¯s face?


    Yin Xun picked up the box and looked at Fang Yao. She asked in confusion, ¡°A gift? What is it?¡±


    Before Fang Yao could speak, the butler said mysteriously, ¡°You¡¯ll know when you open it. Coincidentally, I¡¯ve always been curious too. Our young master has never given anyone a gift, especially a girl. You¡¯re the first girl he gave a gift to.¡±


    Fang Yao looked a little embarrassed. He looked at the butler helplessly. He knew what the butler¡¯s motive was.


    However¡­ He said lightly, ¡°You can open it when you get back. After dinner, let¡¯s talk business first.¡±


    This gift could not be opened here.


    The butler thought Fang Yao was saying this because of his presence and cast a resentful look at him. Fang Yao pretended not to see it.


    ¡°Alright, thank you for the gift.¡± Yin Xun smiled and agreed. She turned around and put the box into her bag.


    Although she was very curious about what gift Fang Yao gave her, since Fang Yao did not want her to open it first, she would not open it for now.


    Coincidentally, she had just finished her meal and Fang Yao was also full. The two of them walked to the living room as usual and sat on the sofa to rest.


    It was time to get down to business. The incident just now was like a small interlude. The two of them no longer showed any awkward emotions. Instead, they became completely serious.


    Fang Yao pushed a plate of fruit slices in front of Yin Xun and said deeply, ¡°Xintao¡¯s popularity after going online is not bad. You¡¯re completely crushing Blue Fox to the ground. However, you can¡¯t let your guard down. I¡¯ve received news that Si Fan won¡¯t take this lying down. In order to protect Blue Fox, he started to rope in investments and expressed his willingness to give up a portion of the profits to whoever can help Blue Fox.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect Si Fan to move so quickly. I thought he was busy accompanying Si Xia in the hospital. I didn¡¯t expect him to still have the energy to deal with Blue Fox.¡±


    ¡°After you left the hospital that day, Si Fan also left,¡± Fang Yao said lightly. ¡°Moreover, Si Fan was not in charge of managing much in the company to begin with. It was his assistant who¡¯s been taking care of things. This time, it¡¯s that assistant who did the investor talks.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. She did not bother to ask why Fang Yao knew her movements so well. She did not deliberately hide her whereabouts. For Fang Yao, investigating something like this was as easy as flipping his hand.


    ¡°It looks like Si Fan¡¯s assistant is very capable. He can even single-handedly complete something that should be done by the president.¡± Yin Xun sighed.


    Fang Yao agreed. ¡°That¡¯s right. Actually, with his ability, he can easily be promoted to manager. It¡¯s just that Si Fan never wanted to do this and didn¡¯t give him a chance to be promoted.¡±


    After that, Fang Yao told her a little more about the assistant.


    It was really rare to have capable employees. Yin Xun thought about the employees around her. Xintao was currently in its development stage. At the moment, the most capable people were Mi Jin and Mary. However, Mary was still a little inferior to Si Fan¡¯s assistant and needed more training.


    It was a pity that such an outstanding employee was staying by Si Fan¡¯s side.


    If only she could dig him up¡­


    ¡°You want this employee?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao in shock. This man had actually seen through her thoughts. ¡°That¡¯s right. Everyone wants outstanding employees. I just don¡¯t know what kind of character they have. If they are a sketchy person, forget it.¡±


    This person had been by Si Fan¡¯s side for so long, so he must know a lot about what Si Fan had done. If he did not leave Si Fan despite this, there were only two possibilities. One was that he was as crooked as Si Fan, and the other was that he was being threatened by Si Fan and did not dare to leave.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, you¡¯ll see this man soon,¡± Fang Yao said lightly.


    Yin Xun was puzzled. ¡°What do you mean?¡±


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Have you forgotten what I just told you? Si Fan is willing to give benefits to those investors.¡±


    ¡°Of course.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    She was a little surprised that Si Fan would give away his profit. Si Fan was not the kind of person who would admit defeat so easily. She thought that Si Fan would persist for a while longer, but she did not expect him to give in so quickly..

    Chapter 489: Do You Have Any Other Requirements?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, his concession this time was indeed the right decision. The current Blue Fox was an empty shell. She had no income and no investors. Her liquidity was completely insufficient. If Si Fan persisted, she would soon bankrupt Blue Fox.


    Fang Yao continued, ¡°This is only the first step. Since Si Fan has already started to make concessions, he will definitely make more concessions in the future. No one is a fool. The reason why they invested in Blue Fox now is to completely control Blue Fox. In the future, these few investors will definitely slowly take over Si Fan¡¯s power and find an opportunity to kick him out.¡±


    ¡°However, before they control Blue Fox, there¡¯s something very important to do. Blue Fox had a major accident because of Si Fan¡¯s mistakes. Initially, Si Fan had to bear these responsibilities, but now that he¡¯s offering profits, the company naturally can¡¯t throw him out. However, these mishaps always need a person to take the fall, so it¡¯s obvious who they will choose.¡±


    Yin Xun understood. ¡°It¡¯s the assistant. Usually, it¡¯s that assistant who helps Si Fan make decisions.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. This matter hasn¡¯t been announced yet, but I think it should be soon.¡± Fang Yao nodded. ¡°So recently, you have to pay more attention to the applicants. With Si Fan¡¯s vigilance, he surely won¡¯t just arrange for this one person to come in. After all, that guy¡¯s identity as Si Fan¡¯s assistant is too ostentatious. Too many people know him.¡±


    ¡°I understand.¡± Yin Xun picked up a fork at the side, stabbed a piece of apple, and popped it into her mouth. After swallowing it, she continued, ¡°Si Fan wants to use his assistant as a cover. Actually, someone else came to be a spy.¡±


    As expected, Si Fan was not very sharp when it came to serious business, but he was very knowledgeable in crooked tactics. He had thought of all kinds of dirty tricks.


    If he had put all his energy into managing Blue Fox, perhaps the company would not have fallen so quickly.


    Yin Xun licked her lips, her eyes filled with anticipation. ¡°This looks like fun.¡±


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s actions, Fang Yao¡¯s heart warmed slightly. His Adam¡¯s apple twitched and he swallowed unconsciously.


    ¡°Ahem¡­¡± He coughed and said, ¡°Si Fan doesn¡¯t pose much of a threat now, but we can¡¯t let our guard down.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at him in confusion.


    Fang Yao explained, ¡°It¡¯s not entirely a bad thing for Si Fan if his power is taken away. At this time, he just needs to protect his position and try his best not to be kicked out. Then, he can wait quietly and conserve his energy to watch those investors fight against Xintao. When those people revive Blue Fox and fight Xintao to a stalemate, he¡¯ll appear and regain power. At that time, his chances of winning will be very high.¡±


    Yin Xun understood what Fang Yao meant. ¡°Looks like we can¡¯t relax for the time being. We have to completely crush Si Fan.¡±


    Fang Yao smiled and said, ¡°There¡¯s no need to be so anxious. You still have to relax when it¡¯s time to rest. This is what 1 want to tell you. You just have to pay attention to the people who come to apply for the job. In addition, I¡¯ve already sent someone to keep an eye on Si Fan¡¯s actions at all times, so you can continue tomorrow¡¯s vacation. At the very least, you don¡¯t have to worry about Si Fan playing tricks when you¡¯re not around. Do you have any requirements for tomorrow¡¯s vacation?¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s expression immediately became excited when she heard that they were going for a vacation. The unhappiness on her face was swept away instantly.


    Fang Yao noticed her change and smiled too.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°After fighting with Blue Fox for so long, of course, 1 have to let my employees relax. Anyway, we¡¯re only going out for two days. Money is not a problem. As long as the employees can have fun, that will be fine. 1 don¡¯t have any other requests. Oh right, aren¡¯t we going to the western suburbs for a barbecue? Prepare more food. There are so many people. We have to ensure that everyone has their stomachs filled.¡±


    ¡°Okay. Any other requests?¡±


    Yin Xun thought about it. She had no doubts about Fang Yao¡¯s ability. Since Fang Yao said that he had full authority to handle it, he must have thought it through.


    She shook her head and said, ¡°I trust you. You¡¯re more thoughtful than me. As for the money, tell me how much you spent when you come back. I¡¯ll transfer the money to you.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Looking at Yin Xun, who was gradually becoming more energetic, the smile on Fang Yao¡¯s lips never faded.


    Yin Xun did not notice that Fang Yao had been staring at her. Her attention was focused on the fruit slices and the vacation.


    The two of them chatted for a while about tomorrow¡¯s trip. After they finished talking, Yin Xun suddenly stood up and walked to Fang Yao..

 Chapter 490 - Chapter 490: Fang Yao Had Prepared It

    Chapter 490: Fang Yao Had Prepared It


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun placed her hand on Fang Yao¡¯s shoulder and said happily, ¡°Fang Yao, let¡¯s stop the training for today. Can 1 go back and prepare for tomorrow?¡±


    Ever since the two of them started training, they had never stopped. Yin Xun was aware that Fang Yao had never allowed her to take a break in the past. This time, she was not sure if Fang Yao would allow it. She looked at Fang Yao expectantly.


    Fang Yao could not help but feel amused. Yin Xun was already acting like this. If he did not give in to her, it would seem a little unreasonable. He nodded and said, ¡°Sure.¡±


    ¡°Thank you, Fang Yao!¡± After getting permission, Yin Xun turned around and quickly walked out.


    She still had to go back and make proper arrangements for the company. After all, other than Xintao, there were also Rhythm and the digital mapping to handle.


    After she went back, she contacted Sha Gao and Ye Wen separately. She also instructed the acting person-in-charge of Rhythm¡¯s short videos. After everything was arranged, Yin Xun began to prepare for tomorrow¡¯s trip.


    Ever since she came to this world, she had been fully devoted to her career. She did not even buy much clothes and necessities. After searching for a long time, she only found a few pieces of sportswear. She did not have any other garments.


    She could not help but feel a little helpless. It was already very late. Should she go out and buy clothes? It was a shame that she had to leave early tomorrow morning. Otherwise, she could use Xintao to place an order.


    They would spend the night playing outside tomorrow, so they needed sleeping bags, tents, and so on. There were too many things to prepare. It was just past seven o¡¯clock, and the mall was still open. Yin Xun prepared for a while and planned to drive out to buy the things.


    She had just changed her clothes when the doorbell suddenly rang. She could not help but wonder who would possibly come looking for her at this time.


    She went to the door and opened the display screen. It was the butler. There were two servants standing beside him.


    Why were there so many people? Yin Xun quickly opened the door.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Yin Xun looked at the two servants beside the butler and asked curiously.


    The butler laughed as he took a step to the side. ¡°Miss Yin, our Young Master said that you are usually busy with work, and you definitely would not have thought of preparing things for a vacation. He has already prepared the necessities for you. You can check them yourself. If there is anything lacking, do tell us. We bought a lot of things, and we might have left something behind.¡±


    Only then did Yin Xun notice that there was a huge package behind the butler. It was stuffed to the point of overflowing.


    She quickly thanked him. ¡°Uncle Butler, please thank Fang Yao for me. That is great. 1 was just about to go out to buy these things. I didn¡¯t expect him to prepare them for me.¡±


    ¡°When it comes to you, our Young Master has always been very worried. You don¡¯t have to be concerned about causing trouble. If you need anything, feel free to look for our Young Master.¡± The butler laughed as he instructed the two servants, ¡°Help Miss Yin carry these in.¡±


    ¡°Thank you. Just leave them in the living room. I¡¯ll do the rest myself.¡± Yin Xun thanked the butler.


    When the butler saw this, he did not insist on helping her more. He left after giving Yin Xun a few more instructions.


    Yin Xun stepped forward and opened the huge package. Fortunately, the package was vertical. Otherwise, she might not have been able to bring it through the door.


    Fang Yao was indeed a meticulous person. There was actually everything she needed inside.


    A tent, sleeping bag, sunglasses, and other things. Everything she needed for tomorrow was there. In addition, there were a few sets of daily clothes.


    When she saw the clothes, Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. For some reason, she picked them up and compared them with her body. As expected, they were neither too big nor too small.


    ¡°Fang Yao¡¯s eyes are quite sharp,¡± Yin Xun muttered to herself.


    She packed up all the things she needed for tomorrow and put them into her large backpack. She looked at the package Fang Yao had prepared for her. There were still a lot of things left in it.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and put away the things.


    After doing this, Yin Xun felt that her face was a little hot. She quickly walked to the mirror and realized that her face was flushed red.


    She must have been tired from unpacking the things just now. Yin Xun pondered about this and nodded to confirm her thoughts.


    She walked over to the sofa and sat down. She felt fine when she was busy, but now that she stopped to take a break, Mary¡¯s words began to ring in her head again.


    ¡°I think Fang Yao likes you¡­¡±


    How could Mary say such a thing so bluntly? Yin Xun¡¯s heart was in a mess. She did not know what to think.


    Fang Yao liked her? She had a vague feeling about that, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that Fang Yao was only nice to her because she was a business partner and he needed her to earn money.


    She never had a boyfriend before and did not even have anyone she liked, so she was not very sure about what she was feeling.


    Yin Xun frowned and sighed. From the corner of her eye, she saw the box she had placed on the table. It was the gift from Fang Yao..

 Chapter 491 - Chapter 491: It Is An Alarm

    Chapter 491: It Is An Alarm


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun carried the box over. Although she was curious about what was inside, she was not in a hurry to open it. Instead, she observed the outside of the box first.


    The box was very exquisite. It was the size of her palm and one could tell that it was of good quality. There were no unique features, however.


    After some thought, she slowly opened the box.


    Inside was a necklace with a silver planet-shaped pendant. It looked quite elegant and beautiful. Yin Xun took out the necklace and placed it on her neck to observe it a few times. The length was just right. It could be used to match her gown in the future.


    After examining it, Yin Xun put the necklace back.


    After packing her things, Yin Xun returned to her room and prepared to rest. She still had to wake up early tomorrow.


    As usual, she poured a glass of milk and went out to the balcony to drink it. It was too early to go to bed, so she enjoyed the breeze on the balcony while she thought about the company¡¯s next plans.


    If Si Fan really wanted to plant a spy in Xintao, it would not happen too soon. After all, this kind of thing needed to be prepared.


    Moreover, Si Fan would definitely think of using an old employee who had left Blue Fox. She would definitely investigate the new recruit¡¯s identity carefully before deciding if she wanted him.


    If that assistant really came over, things would be easy to handle. If it was another person being planted, it might not be so simple. It might not be an employee of Blue Fox, but a newcomer bribed by Si Fan.


    It seemed that she had to inform the HR department and ask them to pay attention to the people who had come to apply for jobs recently.


    As she was thinking about all this, the lights in Fang Yao¡¯s room suddenly lit up.


    Yin Xun called out to him tentatively, ¡°Fang Yao.¡±


    A second later, Fang Yao walked to the window and opened it with a bang.


    He looked at Yin Xun and asked with a smile, ¡°Have you checked your things? Is there anything missing?¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, I have everything 1 need and more. Oh, right, 1 opened the gift. It¡¯s a very beautiful necklace. I like it very much. Thank you.¡±


    That necklace was indeed beautiful. Yin Xun smiled at Fang Yao, her eyes sparkling under the light.


    Fang Yao¡¯s heart skipped a beat involuntarily. The next moment, he picked up the watering can beside him and sprinkled water on the row of green plants in front of him.


    At the same time, he said calmly, ¡°That necklace has an alarm. If anything happens, press the planet ring on the pendant. The pendant will emit an alarm and alert the police.¡±


    Yin Xun was surprised. ¡°Is the necklace that special? I didn¡¯t notice anything unusual about it just now!¡±


    ¡°This is our company¡¯s latest product. It¡¯s currently in the testing stage. 1 think you¡¯re a suitable candidate to have one. After all, people like Si Fan will stop at nothing. If there¡¯s an accident, you can call for help immediately.¡±


    Fang Yao finished watering one round of water and refilled the watering can ¡°If you go out, you can bring it with you. No one will be able to tell what it is. However, if you actually get caught by a more extreme person, you should not use the necklace alarm. That will only anger the crook.¡±


    This was a neat item. Yin Xun thought that she could wear this necklace at all times in case it came in useful one day.


    Even if the alarm was not used, it was just an accessory and not too eye-catching. It was a good thing to have. She did not expect Fang Yao¡¯s gift to be so practical.


    Still¡­¡¯


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and said in admiration, ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect your Fang family¡¯s business to be so extensive. You even developed such a sophisticated instrument.¡±


    The current level of technology was limited. Even smartphones had only recently been released, and not many people could afford ultra-thin computers.


    The necklace that Fang Yao said could automatically alert the police was only popularized later in her original world where technology was rampant. It was not hard to imagine how expensive this thing was.


    Fang Yao only smiled and did not reply.


    Yin Xun took a sip of milk and lowered her head in thought. She felt that the Fang family seemed to be more powerful than she had imagined. She had never heard that the Fang family was involved in this field.


    This seemed even more likely since Fang Yao did not answer her. It was obvious that he did not want to say anything more about this.


    Since Fang Yao did not want to talk about it, Yin Xun did not continue to pry.


    ¡°By the way, Fang Yao.¡± Yin Xun finished the rest of the milk in one gulp and placed the cup on the table beside her. She went to the edge of the balcony and leaned against the railing. She propped her face with her hand and asked Fang Yao, ¡°You have such a wide network. Do you know anyone at Shengyang Hospital?¡±


    ¡°The private hospital in the city center? I have a friend who works there. Why?¡± Fang Yao put down the watering can and stood beside the flower rack with his hands in his pockets..

 Chapter 492 - Chapter 492: Keeping An Eye On Si Fan

    Chapter 492: Keeping An Eye On Si Fan


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun said deeply, ¡°Although I¡¯m not sure if that¡¯s the right hospital, I still want you to keep an eye on it. If everything goes as expected, that hospital should be undergoing a heart transplant surgery. Of course, it might also easily be another hospital. Public hospitals can be ruled out since they have state control and shouldn¡¯t do such things, but private hospitals are different. If possible, I hope you can keep an eye on those relatively famous private hospitals.¡±


    ¡°Si Fan wants to give his sister Si Xia a heart transplant?¡± Fang Yao frowned. ¡°Judging from your reaction today, I would assume the transplant is from your sister Yin Mo.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Yin Mo agreed to it. So as long as Si Fan uses enough money to keep this under covers, this matter won¡¯t blow up. In addition, as far as I know, Shengyang Hospital has done a lot of illegal black transactions in private. 1 believe they transplanted many live organs, so it¡¯s very likely that they will do the surgery in this hospital.¡±


    As for which hospital performed the heart transplant on Si Xia and Yin Mo, the original novel did not directly mention the name.


    However, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the surgery was performed in a private hospital.


    If Yin Mo was really still following the original plot, then she would be pregnant very soon.


    Heart transplant surgery was not easy. They needed to make sufficient preparations in the early stages. It was not impossible for Yin Mo to get pregnant during this period.


    Fang Yao said helplessly, ¡°Doesn¡¯t Si Fan know that this kind of thing is illegal? A heart transplant can only be voluntarily agreed to by a donor who is dying. Yin Mo is a living and healthy person. Even if she¡¯s willing, the law won¡¯t allow it. Isn¡¯t Si Fan afraid of being discovered and being arrested? If he goes to jail for such a thing, even his connections can¡¯t help him.¡±


    ¡°If he had legal awareness, he wouldn¡¯t have kidnapped people time and time again and stolen company secrets,¡± Yin Xun said disdainfully.


    In the original story, Si Fan had done even more than this. He had imprisoned, beaten up, and crippled people. He was even involved in drugs. He had essentially broken more than half of the law.


    Si Fan was a huge tumor to society, harming people in all sorts of ways. In the original work, he was victorious purely because of the protagonist¡¯s halo. Now that Yin Xun had come to this world, she would not let someone like Si Fan continue to stay on his pedestal.


    ¡°1¡¯11 ask my friends to keep an eye on it. I¡¯ll inform you immediately if anything unusual happens.¡± Fang Yao nodded.


    Yin Xun smiled and thanked him. ¡°Thank you. I¡¯ll repay you after this matter succeeds.¡±


    There was nothing more satisfying than personally sending someone she hated to prison. If she got the chance, she would definitely not let Si Fan off easily.


    ¡°One more thing.¡± Yin Xun put a hand to her head and said, ¡°Do you know how to buy drugs?¡±


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows. ¡°Why are you suddenly interested in drugs?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not that I¡¯m interested in them, but my employee was injected with drugs. Fortunately, it only happened once, and the dose wasn¡¯t particularly large. The doctor said that as long as she was careful, it shouldn¡¯t have any effect on her body. Injecting drugs into someone in a coffee shop is no small matter, but the police haven¡¯t had any investigation results yet.


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure if Si Fan did it or if it was someone else. I¡¯m also not sure if the other party is just targeting my employee or is aiming for me. They have kept their identity hidden This makes me very uncomfortable. If possible, 1 want to be one step ahead. Even if I can¡¯t find the culprit, I have to at least have a general clue.¡±


    Yin Xun told Fang Yao what happened to Dai Ning. Her expression was solemn. This matter was much more serious than it seemed.


    Fang Yao also straightened his expression. Smuggling drugs was not a small matter. Since the other party was brazen enough to openly hurt someone in a place like a coffee shop, they must have some special status. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll help you keep an eye out. However, 1 must remind you in advance that drug dealers are different from Si Fan. They¡¯re a group of outlaws who can do anything. It¡¯s too dangerous for you to deal with them.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what to do. If there¡¯s any relevant information, please tell me. I will investigate the rest myself.¡± Yin Xun knew that it was dangerous to tackle something like this alone, so she asked Fang Yao to provide information.


    ¡°Alright, 1¡¯11 help you look,¡± Fang Yao promised.


    After Yin Xun and Fang Yao chatted briefly about their coming trip tomorrow, they bade each other good night and went to bed.


    Before going to sleep, Yin Xun took out the necklace and placed it on top of her bed. She planned to wear it when she went out tomorrow..

 Chapter 493 - Chapter 493: Shes The Extra

    Chapter 493: She¡¯s The Extra


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Perhaps because they were going on vacation tomorrow, or for some other reason, Yin Xun kept tossing and turning in bed.


    Usually, she would fall asleep in seconds, but this time, she found it difficult to fall asleep. With her usual sleep quality, this should not have happened.


    Perhaps it was because she had not exercised today and her body was not tired that her body did not want to rest. After lying down for a long time without falling asleep, Yin Xun planned to get out of bed and have a walk to make herself sleepy.


    However, when she saw the necklace at the head of the bed, Mary¡¯s words from earlier in the day rang inside her head again.


    Yin Xun heaved a long sigh as her emotions were a little hectic. It was as though this was the only way to release the inexplicable feeling knocking around in her heart.


    However, no matter what she tried, it was useless. The result was that Yin Xun went out the next day with dark circles under her eyes.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t sleep well last night?¡± Fang Yao took Yin Xun¡¯s backpack from her and placed it in the trunk.


    Yin Xun nodded in a daze. ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because 1 didn¡¯t exercise yesterday and my body wasn¡¯t used to relaxing, so 1 didn¡¯t sleep well. Seriously, is this what they call Stockholm syndrome? The more 1 get tortured, the more my body likes it. If 1 don¡¯t torture myself once, I won¡¯t even be able to sleep.¡±


    With those words, she got into the car and planned to take a nap.


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡± It seemed that Yin Xun really had not rested well if she was spouting nonsense like this.


    Yin Xun almost overslept in the morning. Fortunately, she had the foresight to set three alarms and packed her things in advance last night. That was why she could leave the house immediately when Fang Yao came to look for her.


    Xintao and Fang Yao¡¯s company buildings were in two different directions. However, for convenience¡¯s sake, they set the meeting place in the middle of the two offices. It was very close to the villa area, so Fang Yao and Yin Xun went together.


    In the car, Yin Xun was horribly tired. She only wanted to take a quick nap, but she leaned against the back of the car and fell sound asleep.


    Fang Yao sat beside her and looked at Yin Xun¡¯s sleeping posture. He felt that she must be uncomfortable in this position and tried to support her with his shoulder.


    However, just as he raised his hand, the car jolted and Yin Xun fell straight onto his shoulder.


    Fang Yao¡¯s body tensed up and he did not dare to move.


    Yin Xun was truly sleepy and did not even wake up.


    When they reached their destination, Fang Yao woke Yin Xun up.


    Yin Xun touched her slightly stiff neck and blurted, ¡°No wonder my neck hurts so much. Ouch¡­¡±


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­Then I¡¯ll prepare a pillow for you next time.¡±


    Only then did Yin Xun realize that she was leaning against Fang Yao. She smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I slept too much.¡± Then, she hastily opened the car door and got out.


    Two tour buses had already parked there. Looking through the window, she saw that the employees had already boarded the buses in advance, leaving only the personnel and driver outside.


    They were probably all waiting for Yin Xun. Seeing Yin Xun get out of the car, the driver quickly walked over to help Yin Xun take her things and put them in the luggage compartment of the bus.


    ¡°Ah, President Yin, there is something that I have to report to you¡­¡± The personnel came in front of Yin Xun, and his expression was a little awkward.


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°What is it?¡±


    While the two of them were talking, Fang Yao took out his own bags and the driver soon drove away.


    Fang Yao had just gotten out of the car when he heard a sweet voice calling him. ¡°Yao, you¡¯re finally here!¡±


    Just as the personnel was about to explain things, they were interrupted. All three of them looked at where the voice came from¡ªFang Corporation¡¯s bus.


    It was Qu Lu. She opened the window and stuck her head out. She smiled and waved at Fang Yao.


    The moment Fang Yao saw Qu Lu, his expression darkened. He frowned and asked, ¡°Why are you here?¡±


    Qu Lu said, ¡°Auntie told me that you guys were going out to play. Coincidentally, I had nothing to do right now, so 1 came over.¡±


    Looking at the scene in front of him, Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. When she thought of her previous dilemma, she felt that the situation was ridiculous.


    She had actually forgotten about Qu Lu. From the start, she should not have harbored such thoughts, even if it was only for a short while.


    Taking a deep breath, Yin Xun turned around and asked, ¡°What did you want to say just now?¡±


    ¡°All, President Yin, it¡¯s like this.¡± After being reminded by Yin Xun, the human resources personnel who had been staring at Fang Yao suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly explained, ¡°When 1 counted the people last time, the number was just right. Back time, Mi Jin said that he wouldn¡¯t come. But I didn¡¯t expect him to actually be here today, so¡­¡±


    The personnel said awkwardly, ¡°There are no more seats on the bus. It¡¯s full.¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡± So, she was the extra.


    While she was at a loss for words, Mi Jin suddenly opened the window and greeted Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, I¡¯m so sorry. Initially, I wanted to stay in the company, but after thinking about it, you were right. When it is time to relax, you should relax. That¡¯s why I came over today.. Didn¡¯t you say that 1 am free to choose?¡±

 Chapter 494 - Chapter 494: Carsick

    Chapter 494: Carsick


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mi Jin turned around and spoke to someone out of sight. Then, he hastily turned his head back and said to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, don¡¯t worry. Before you came, 1 asked President Fang about the personnel of his company. Some of those employees did not come, so it just so happens that there is an extra seat. Anyway, we¡¯re all going on a trip together. You should know him, so you can just take a seat with him. President Fang should not mind, right?¡±


    Yin Xun saw Mary sitting beside Mi Jin. She was looking over with a malicious smile on her face. Yin Xun immediately understood what the two of them meant.


    The two of them were simply ridiculous. Yin Xun frowned and raised her head to look at Qu Lu, who was looking in her direction. ¡°Mi Jin, you¡­¡±


    ¡°Since your bus is full, come to ours.¡± Fang Yao interrupted Yin Xun and said calmly, ¡°Mi Jin is right. Anyway, our two companies are going out to have fun together. They¡¯re not children, so they don¡¯t need you to watch and protect them the entire time.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s words made sense. Yin Xun had no reason to refuse.


    ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll have to intrude.¡± Yin Xun stared deeply at Mary.


    Mary smiled guiltily at her, then turned her head away from Yin Xun.


    Qu Lu had been keeping an eye on the whole situation. When she heard that Yin Xun was going to sit on the same bus as Fang Yao, her expression stiffened for a moment. When she saw Yin Xun and Fang Yao enter the vehicle, however, she smiled again.


    At this moment, there were two empty seats on the bus. One was beside Qu Lu and another was next to a girl in a red dress.


    ¡°Yao, come and sit here. 1 brought a lot of snacks that 1 made myself. We¡¯re traveling pretty far. We¡¯re bound to get hungry on the way,¡± Qu Lu called out to Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao did not say reply. Instead, he looked at Yin Xun, who did not say anything and walked straight to the back.


    After Yin Xun got onto the bus, she walked straight to the girl in red.


    Based on the relationship between Qu Lu and Fang Yao, she knew that the seat beside Qu Lu would definitely be reserved for Fang Yao. She did not want to embarrass herself by sitting beside Qu Lu.


    In that case, the only seat left was the one next to this girl. Yin Xun had no choice.


    However, as soon as she sat beside the girl, she smelled the faint perfume from her body.


    Yin Xun cursed internally and started to sneeze violently.


    While she was rubbing her nose, the girl in red looked at her resentfully. Yin Xun quickly said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯ve been having a cold recently¡­ Achoo¡­¡±


    This perfume actually smelled very good, but Yin Xun could not stand it. She kept feeling that the fumes were going straight up her nostrils and making them itch.


    Fang Yao glanced at Yin Xun with a faint smile in his eyes. Then, he said to Qu Lu, ¡°I¡¯m carsick and can¡¯t taste the food. You can eat it yourself.¡±


    He walked to the girl in red and bent down slightly to ask her, ¡°Do you mind changing seats with me?¡±


    The girl,¡±!¡± The CEO was actually asking her for a favor so politely. Naturally, she could not reject him.


    ¡°Sure, sure!¡± The girl hurriedly stood up and walked to sit beside Qu Lu. She greeted her. ¡°Miss Qu, sorry to disturb you.¡±


    When Qu Lu saw that Fang Yao had gone to sit with Yin Xun, although she was not pleased, there was nothing she could really do.


    She had always been a gentle and intellectual person. At this moment, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she could not afford to show it.


    Qu Lu smiled at the girl and turned her head away from the window. However, she still felt uncomfortable. She took out a small mirror and pretended to look at her reflection. In reality, she was secretly looking at Fang Yao and Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun¡¯s identity was not ordinary to begin with. When Xintao went online, it caused a huge sensation on the Internet. Everyone knew that Yin Xun was now a legendary figure in the business world.


    Hence, many employees were also secretly staring at her.


    She was eye-catching by herself, but now Fang Yao was sitting beside her. Almost all the employees on the bus were secretly looking over and whispering.


    Everyone thought that Fang Yao and Yin Xun could not hear them, but in fact, the two of them heard everything clearly.


    Everyone was present and seated. The driver gave one last reminder and drove off. There was even soft music playing inside the bus. With that, they did not have to worry about being overheard.


    ¡°Why did you suddenly come here?¡± Yin Xun asked Fang Yao in a low voice.


    Fang Yao replied softly, ¡°It¡¯s easy to get carsick sitting in the front.¡±


    Yin Xun, ¡°¡­It¡¯s clearly more bumpy at the back, and you¡¯re more likely to get carsick here.¡±


    Besides, could Fang Yao even get carsick? She had sat in cars with Fang Yao so many times, but she had never seen him get carsick.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t call Qu Lu to join us today. I didn¡¯t know she was coming,¡± Fang Yao suddenly said without being asked.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun was taken aback..

 Chapter 495 - Chapter 495: Fang Yao Was A Clean Freak

    Chapter 495: Fang Yao Was A Clean Freak


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao added, ¡°She¡¯s not really my fiancee. There¡¯s nothing between us. It¡¯s all just wishful thinking on the part of our elders.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao in confusion. What did this have to do with her? Why was he explaining all this to her?


    However, the feeling of anger that had been stuck in her heart suddenly disappeared. Yin Xun patted her chest gently.


    Fang Yao did not seem to want to hear Yin Xun¡¯s response. After he finished speaking, he looked at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Have you eaten breakfast?¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, I woke up too late this morning and didn¡¯t have time to eat.¡±


    ¡°I figured you wouldn¡¯t eat in the morning, so the butler specially prepared some snacks for you.¡± As Fang Yao said this, he took out a small box from somewhere and handed it to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun,¡±!¡±


    Where did Fang Yao take it out from? Why had she not seen it earlier?


    However, that was not important. Yin Xun was already hungry. Since there was food ready, she opened the box and ate without hesitation.


    There were all kinds of cookies inside. It seemed the butler had personally made them. Yin Xun could tell that they were her favorites.


    After putting a cookie in her mouth, Yin Xun casually handed one to Fang Yao. Fang Yao took it naturally and put it in his mouth.


    ¡°!¡± Qu Lu, who had been secretly watching the two of them, was shocked. Just a moment ago, Fang Yao had said that he was carsick and could not taste food. Why did he end up eating with Yin Xun in the blink of an eye?


    She also remembered that Fang Yao was a clean freak. He would not eat food that had been touched by others.


    She remembered when the butler had prepared Fang Yao¡¯s favorite food in the past. Just because she had touched it with her hand, Fang Yao had thrown it aside.


    It seemed that there was something between the two of them. A trace of jealousy flashed across Qu Lu¡¯s eyes.


    It seemed that Lin Chan¡¯s warning to Yin Xun last time was not enough. Since she did not abide by the agreement, she could not blame anyone for what was to come.


    Qu Lu took out her phone, typed a message, and sent it out.


    Yin Xun was not paying attention to Qu Lu. She did not bother sparing attention to someone who had nothing to do with her.


    After finishing the snacks, Fang Yao took out a pack of wet wipes and handed one to Yin Xun so that she could wipe her hands.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao in surprise. She did not expect Fang Yao to be so meticulous as to prepare such a thing.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you have a rough night? Take advantage of the time on the road to catch up on sleep. You¡¯ll want to save your energy when we get there.¡± Fang Yao saw that Yin Xun was done cleaning up, so he put away the things and pressed a button beside Yin Xun. The back of the chair immediately reclined.


    The bus was very spacious, and there was a large distance between each row of seats. Therefore, even if the back of the chair was tilted back, it would not bother the people behind.


    Other than Yin Xun, the other employees also began to recline their chairs and get some sleep.


    Yin Xun covered her mouth and yawned quietly. She was indeed very tired. There was only a little time on the car ride earlier, and it was not enough for her to get a good sleep. She stopped talking to Fang Yao and leaned back in her chair to take a nap.


    Qu Lu had been holding a small mirror and watching the interaction between Fang Yao and Yin Xun. She did not expect the two of them to be so intimate. She was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. When she saw Yin Xun closing her eyes to sleep, she finally put the mirror away.


    However, she was still worried. Hence, she took out the mirror again and looked behind her every once in a while, afraid that the two of them would do something overboard.


    The girl sitting beside her was puzzled.


    The bus drove for three hours before they arrived at their destination. Yin Xun was woken up by Fang Yao.


    When she woke up, other than her and Fang Yao, there was only Qu Lu left in the car. She looked out of the window and saw that the employees had already gone down to make preparations.


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t you wake me up earlier?¡± Yin Xun patted her face gently to wake herself up. She had slept until her entire body felt refreshed and her head was no longer dizzy.


    ¡°Miss Yin, you slept so soundly throughout the entire journey. It seems like managing the company must be very tiring. You were even snoring. 1 could hear the sound despite sitting all the way at the front. Haha, Miss Yin is so straightforward and adorable.¡± Qu Lu saw that Yin Xun had woken up and spoke to her with a smile.


    On the surface, she looked like she was joking, but in reality, she wanted to embarrass Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun opened her mouth to reply, but Fang Yao spoke first.


    Fang Yao glanced at Qu Lu indifferently and said calmly, ¡°I didn¡¯t hear any sound when 1 was sitting beside her. How could you hear it from so far away?¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Qu Lu¡¯s face turned red. She bit her lips and did not say anything for a long time.


    She originally planned to embarrass Yin Xun. She was not expecting to be on the receiving end..

 Chapter 496 - Chapter 496: Make You Go Bankrupt

    Chapter 496: Make You Go Bankrupt


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. We should set up a tent first and prepare the roasted meat.¡± Yin Xun felt hungry. She glanced at Qu Lu and did not feel like arguing with her.


    She had read many novels and had seen such childish tricks countless times.


    If Qu Lu was just running her mouth, she would not bother with her. However, if Qu Lu did the same things as those toxic side characters in the novels and tried to frame Yin Xun, then she would not show her any mercy.


    Yin Xun walked to the front while Fang Yao followed beside him. Qu Lu was a little embarrassed by the earlier exchange and did not have the nerve to chase after them. Instead, she quietly followed behind them.


    Seeing that the two people in front of her were starting to ignore her, she did not want to leave Fang Yao and Yin Xun alone. Fang Yao¡¯s attitude toward Yin Xun was really abnormal. She needed to keep an eye on the two of them.


    She quietly took out her phone and pretended to take a selfie. In reality, she was taking a photo of the two people in front of her. After taking the photo, she posted it.


    ¡°You¡¯re quite good at choosing a spot. There¡¯s actually no one here in such a beautiful place.¡± Yin Xun looked around and sighed, ignoring the other person behind him.


    Before coming here, Yin Xun did not know where Fang Yao had chosen. She did not ask about it either. She believed that Fang Yao had good judgment and would not choose a bad place.


    As expected, Fang Yao was super reliable. This place was perfect for picnics.


    The place they came to was a clearing surrounded by trees. There was a lake not far away. The air was fresh and the scenery was beautiful. It looked like a place specially made for picnics, but there was no one else there other than them.


    Fang Yao also looked around like Yin Xun and said, ¡°This is a tourist attraction. It¡¯s a great place for outings.¡±


    ¡°Why is there no one in such a scenic spot?¡± Yin Xun looked carefully into the distance this time. The forest was not very thick, and she seemed to be able to see figures moving there.


    It turned out that it was not that there was no one else here; they just were not close to them.


    ¡°I¡¯ve booked this area.¡± Fang Yao seemed to know what Yin Xun was going to say. He said, ¡°No rush to give me the money for the booking. You can just pay me together when the dividends come. Sixty thousand a day, a hundred and twenty thousand for two. You owe me sixty thousand if we split it evenly.¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­ Actually, having more people around might have been good. It¡¯s more lively that way.¡±


    It was totally not worth it to spend 60,000 yuan just for the venue.


    Instead of this environment that was nice for outings, she could bring her employees to have fun in multiple different places for 60,000 yuan. Although this amount was not a big deal to her, there was no need to be so extravagant.


    Besides, there was nothing wrong with being with other tourists.


    60,000 yuan. Just thinking about it made her heart ache. Yin Xun remained calm on the surface. She grinned and smiled at Fang Yao.


    ¡°Yin Xun.¡± Seeing her reaction, Fang Yao suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked at her with a smile in his eyes. ¡°You must be feeling sore because of the money.¡±


    Yin Xun thought that she had controlled her expression well; she did not expect Fang Yao to see through it.


    She had never liked to act rich. She said self-righteously, ¡°That¡¯s right. After all, the company has just started. 60,000 yuan is not a small sum. If you want to make money, you have to spend it on your tools¡±


    ¡°Haha.¡± Fang Yao suddenly laughed. He raised his hand and gently rubbed Yin Xun¡¯s head. ¡°This place is owned by my family. Don¡¯t worry and enjoy yourself. It doesn¡¯t cost anything. I didn¡¯t expect you to be so gullible.¡±


    With those words, he quickly walked toward the tent area of his company. The people of the two companies ate and had fun together, but the tent areas were divided. After all, the employees were not familiar with each other.


    After hearing Fang Yao¡¯s words, Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. Fang Yao was teasing her on purpose!


    When did Fang Yao become such a joker? However, when she came to her senses, she was a little surprised. The Fang Corporation¡¯s business scope was wider than she thought. It even covered tourism.


    She had only heard from Yin Cheng that the Fang Group was very powerful, but she did not know exactly what they did.


    After Fang Yao left, Qu Lu quickly hurried over. She walked side by side with Yin Xun, and her eyes were fixed on Fang Yao¡¯s back. ¡°Miss Yin, what is your relationship with Yao now?¡±


    Yin Xun knew what Qu Lu meant. However, she did not feel like playing games with her. She said indifferently, ¡°You should ask Fang Yao about this. I¡¯m not familiar with you.¡±


    ¡°Not familiar?¡± Qu Lu sneered. ¡°Don¡¯t forget that you made a promise to my aunt. If you have any nasty intentions for Yao, 1 will make you go bankrupt. Yao is my fiance. He has to be with me. I have no other choice¡­¡±


    The rest of her sentence was almost a whisper. Yin Xun did not hear her clearly. She only caught her saying that Fang Yao had to be with her..

 Chapter 497 - Chapter 497: Thank You, Qu Lu

    Chapter 497: Thank You, Qu Lu


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Qu Lu.¡± Yin Xun stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Qu Lu.


    Under Qu Lu¡¯s puzzled gaze, Yin Xun spoke slowly, ¡°You don¡¯t have to threaten me. If you want to do something to me, go ahead and do it. If you¡¯re not afraid of the consequences, do what you like. I¡¯m not interested in fighting over a man. If it¡¯s not my property, I don¡¯t care. If it belongs to me, then no one can stop me. If you have the time to keep watch over me, why don¡¯t you go and win over Fang Yao? Perhaps he¡¯ll have a better impression of you.¡±


    She thought that Qu Lu was here to stick to Fang Yao, but she was actually marking her. Was this not just treating the symptoms instead of resolving the root of the problem? If she just wanted to get with Fang Yao, why did Qu Lu have to look for her?


    Moreover, ever since Yin Xun met Fang Yao, she had never crossed the line. It was just normal contact between business partners. Why was she so worried about her?


    However, Qu Lu did not seem to agree.


    ¡°No, I¡¯m wary about you. If 1 keep an eye on you, you won¡¯t cross the line. Auntie asked me to watch you.¡± Qu Lu rejected Yin Xun¡¯s suggestion.


    So, it was Lin Chan¡¯s idea. Fang Yao¡¯s mother was really protective of her precious son.


    Yin Xun shrugged. ¡°Anyway, I don¡¯t care. If it suits you, just keep watching me.¡± With that, she walked toward her employees.


    Qu Lu stuck to her word. She followed Yin Xun step by step.


    When the employees of Xintao saw Yin Xun coming over, they greeted her one after another.


    Qu Lu, who had been quietly following behind her, suddenly said loudly, ¡°Miss Yin, I see that you were unable to fork out the expenses for this trip. That¡¯s why you had to organize it together with Yao. If you have any difficulties, you can just tell me. It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know about my relationship with Yao. His friends are my friends. I can help you pay this sixty thousand yuan.¡±


    Yin Xun knew what Qu Lu meant when she said this. She wanted to embarrass her in front of his employees. However, Qu Lu apparently did not understand her at all.


    ¡°Do you need me to return the money?¡± Yin Xun looked up at her.


    Qu Lu was stunned. She did not expect Yin Xun to ask such a question. She thought that Yin Xun would say some grateful words or feel embarrassed in front of so many people.


    She actually asked her if she needed to return the money! If Yin Xun spent someone else¡¯s money, she would definitely have to return it. However, Qu Lu could not say this. If she did, it would sound too petty.


    At this moment, it was as if she had been thrown into a fire by Yin Xun. No matter how she answered, she would lose.


    However, because she had spoken so loudly, many employees heard her. Even the Fang Corporation employees walked over curiously to see what was going on.


    She did not have to worry about Xintao¡¯s employees, but she could not ignore the Fang Corporation¡¯s employees¡¯ opinions.


    She had no choice. For the sake of her pride, she gritted her teeth and said, ¡°Of course not. We¡¯re friends after all.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and thanked her. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be so generous. Thank you.¡± At the same time, she said to her employees, ¡°Everyone, thank Miss Qu Lu for her generosity. She and President Fang booked this place and invited us to have fun here!¡±


    ¡°Thank you, Miss Qu!¡± The employees thanked Qu Lu one after another.


    Qu Lu¡¯s expression immediately changed. If the two of them had said this in private, she could just deny it later and pretend that she never said anything. She did not expect Yin Xun to tell all her staff. Did she not feel embarrassed?


    If so many people knew about it, she had no choice but to fork out the money.


    Not far away, Fang Yao, who was talking to the employees, noticed the situation over there. After saying a few more words, he walked toward Yin Xun.


    When Yin Xun saw Fang Yao coming over, she greeted him and said, ¡°Fang Yao, ATiss Qu said that she will help pay for my share, so you can just ask her for it. Isn¡¯t that right, ATiss Qu?¡±


    ¡°Mm¡­ That¡¯s right¡­¡± Qu Lu had wanted to embarrass Yin Xun and show off her generosity, but the tables had somehow been turned.


    Fang Yao immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. He nodded and said, ¡°Alright, cash or transfer. If you don¡¯t have it now, you can pay me when we get back.¡±


    Qu Lu looked at Fang Yao sadly and asked, ¡°Yao, do you really want this?¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°Miss Qu, do you not plan to cover my expenses? You should have told me earlier. I wouldn¡¯t have forced you.¡±


    Initially, she had not planned to make things difficult for Qu Lu. However, since Qu Lu had taken the initiative to provoke her, she could not blame her for this.


    If Qu Lu said that she did not want to pay for her, she could not force her.


    However, to Qu Lu, it would be embarrassing if she admitted that she would not help to pay.


    60,000 yuan was just one less chunk of cash for her. Although she was not pleased, she was the one who suggested it first. It would be embarrassing to go back on her word.


    ¡°Of course not. I was just asking. I¡¯ll transfer the money when we get back,¡± said Qu Lu.


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao looked at each other with an amused look in their eyes..

    This matter was just a small incident After the employees dispersed, Mary went over to Yin Xun¡¯s side and asked softly, ¡°President Yin, what is going on with Miss Qu?¡±


    Yin Xun said indifferently, ¡°She¡¯s a human monitor.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Mary asked, confused.


    However, Yin Xun had no intention of explaining. Mary knew her limits too. If Yin Xun did not explain, although she was puzzled, she did not ask further.


    The barbecue dinner would only begin at night, and now was the preparation stage. The men were very gentlemanly and offered to help the women set up the tents. After that was done, they went to assemble the ovens for the night.


    There were only eight women among them. They wanted to do the chores together, but the men firmly stopped them.


    They would start roasting meat at night, which meant that everyone had to settle their own lunches.


    Fang Yao¡¯s assistant pointed in a direction and said to everyone, ¡°Everyone, this is a tourist attraction. There are many places to hang around. We will only start gathering at night, so everyone can move around freely when you¡¯re ready. Just come back before 7:30 p.m.¡±


    After the assistant finished making the announcement, the crowd immediately erupted. Someone said, ¡°When I came in just now, it seemed especially lively over there. There are all kinds of stalls. Does anyone want to go over and take a look?¡±


    A Xintao employee said, ¡°I think I saw a God of Love Temple and a God of Wealth Temple over there. Come, let¡¯s go and eat first. After that, we can go and pray there.¡±


    A Fang employee said, ¡°I¡¯ve been here before. What if this place only accepts cash?¡±


    The Xintao employee replied, ¡°That¡¯s okay, I have some. I can lend it to you.¡±


    It was surprising to see the employees being so friendly with each other. In just a short while, they all got along well. Everyone walked in groups of three to five toward the direction the assistant pointed.


    When Qu Lu heard that there was a God of Love Temple, her eyes lit up. She stopped paying attention to Yin Xun and walked to Fang Yao¡¯s side. She said expectantly, ¡°Yao, let¡¯s go over there and take a look too.¡±


    Fang Yao looked at her indifferently and said, ¡°Those people haven¡¯t gone far. You can follow them.¡±


    With that, he walked toward Yin Xun, who was sitting on the grass, with a box in his hands.


    ¡°There¡¯s also some snacks here. You can fill your stomach a little first. There¡¯s a restaurant a short distance away. You can go over to eat there later.¡± Fang Yao handed the box to Yin Xun and sat casually by her side.


    Yin Xun was starving. She wanted to ask Mary for something to eat later, but Fang Yao already brought some food to her. She accepted it without hesitation. She was so used to eating his food that she did not even think to thank him.


    When Qu Lu saw that Fang Yao was sticking to Yin Xun, she stomped her feet angrily and walked over to them as well.


    ¡°Yao, I¡¯m hungry too.¡± Qu Lu stared at the snacks in Yin Xun¡¯s hands.


    Fang Yao asked, ¡°Where are your snacks?¡±


    ¡°They¡¯re finished,¡± said Qu Lu.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, ¡°Didn¡¯t you bring your own snacks? Did you eat much? You have quite a big appetite.¡±


    ¡°Cough¡­¡± When Yin Xun heard Fang Yao¡¯s words, she immediately choked and coughed repeatedly.


    Seeing this, Fang Yao quickly helped her catch her breath. Yin Xun waved a hand, indicating that she was fine.


    Although she knew that Fang Yao had said this on purpose, when she thought about his relationship with Qu Lu, she still found it unbelievable that he would say such blunt words.


    ¡°Here, since you¡¯re hungry, let¡¯s eat together.¡± Yin Xun generously handed the snacks to Qu Lu.


    Qu Lu looked at Fang Yao and then at Yin Xun. She declined politely. ¡°Thank you. Miss Yin, you should eat by yourself. I¡¯m suddenly not hungry anymore.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡± Yin Xun nodded. It was unwise to starve herself for others, but she had no reason to get involved.


    She passed some snacks to Fang Yao, Mary, and the others. Everyone ate together except for Qu Lu.


    When Qu Lu saw that Fang Yao had eaten everything, she instantly regretted her decision. Those were the snacks that Fang Yao had personally prepared. If she had known earlier, she would not have rejected the offer out of pride.


    It was all Yin Xun¡¯s fault for embarrassing her time and time again. Qu Lu¡¯s gaze toward Yin Xun became even more unfriendly.


    After eating the snacks, Yin Xun felt energized. She got up, patted the dirt off her body, and said to the others, ¡°Let¡¯s go over and take a look. Fang Yao, are there any fun places nearby?¡±


    Fang Yao shook his head. ¡°I don¡¯t know either.¡±


    Yin Xun raised his eyebrows. ¡°Isn¡¯t this place owned by your company?¡±


    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s just one of them. There are too many to keep track of. I can¡¯t remember all of them,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡± She was too naive.


    In the end, Fang Yao¡¯s assistant led the way..

 Chapter 499 - Chapter 499: Help Me Draw a Fortune

    Chapter 499: Help Me Draw a Fortune


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After walking out of the small forest, Yin Xun finally understood why Fang Yao wanted to book the entire venue. There were a ton of people who came to play. The crowd was so large that people had to squeeze.


    They went to a few restaurants that were all full. Initially, everyone planned to move around in a low-key manner, but they had no choice. In the end, Fang Yao revealed his identity, and they entered a five-star restaurant to eat.


    The scenic area here was very big. They ate and had some fun for a while. They crossed the pedestrian street and walked across a wooden bridge. After looking at a few scenic spots, they arrived in front of the God of Wealth Temple. Beside it was the God of Love Temple.


    Mary looked at the temple and said to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, let¡¯s go and ask for a marriage fortune.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s gaze swept across the two temples. There was no one else in the God of Wealth Temple except for the devotees. In the God of Love Temple, there were still a few Daoist priests helping people.


    She immediately shook her head. ¡°I want to worship the God of Wealth.¡±


    Compared to love, her career was more important. She only believed in the God of Wealth. Those fortune-telling Daoists said that they wanted a peaceful and quiet life, but in fact, they were secretly getting married and having children. They were breaking their rules.


    Moreover, she secretly touched her pocket. She had left in a hurry in the morning and only had 50 yuan in her pocket. She could only ask for a fortune once. Of course, she had to choose to worship the God of Wealth.


    She did not have any money on her, and she could not borrow it from her employees. She was the president of Xintao but only had 50 yuan on her. That was too embarrassing.


    Although she did not care too much about her reputation, she was still ashamed to borrow money from her employees.


    It was easier to pay online. It was a pity that Xintao¡¯s business was not so popular now. Everyone preferred to accept cash.


    It seemed like she had to work harder. She had to strive to be able to pay with her phone in the future. This way, it would be more convenient for her to travel.


    ¡°Yao, why don¡¯t we go and ask for a marriage fortune as well?¡± When Qu Lu saw the God of Love Temple, she immediately perked up and tried to pull Fang Yao over.


    Fang Yao avoided Qu Lu¡¯s outstretched hand and said indifferently, ¡°I¡¯m not interested in that.¡±


    When Qu Lu heard this, although she felt uncomfortable, she could only get one for herself.


    Based on her understanding of Fang Yao, Fang Yao indeed did not like these things. He was indifferent to everything. She had known Fang Yao for so long, but she had never known what he was interested in.


    Mary followed Yin Xun to pray to the God of Wealth, while Qu Lu went to ask for a marriage fortune. Only Fang Yao, Mi Jin, and the little assistant, whose presence was so weak that it was always ignored, were left behind.


    When Mi Jin saw Yin Xun and Mary walk into the Temple of Wealth, he said to Fang Yao, ¡°President Fang, 1 have a question for you. But I don¡¯t know if I should say it.¡±


    ¡°Speak,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    ¡°You treat President Yin¡­ very differently.¡± Mi Jin chose his words carefully.


    Fang Yao¡¯s expression was calm. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that even you could tell, but Yin Xun doesn¡¯t seem to notice.¡±


    Mi Jin looked at the assistant, who immediately understood and walked away. Mi Jin then said, ¡°President Fang, forgive me for being nosy. Both you and President Yin are my benefactors, so I will say what 1 must.¡±


    He sighed and looked at Qu Lu, who was asking for a fortune in the God of Love Temple. ¡°Even if President Yin notices your feelings, she would not give you a response. Although 1 do not know who Miss Qu Lu is to you, I can feel that her relationship with you is not ordinary. President Yin is a strong person. You have someone else by your side. Even if you are not in a relationship with her, Yin Xun will still mind it. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. 1 feel that if you want to woo a girl, you have to first settle things with any other girls who are interested in you.¡±


    When he said this, Mi Jin was a little nervous. After all, Fang Yao was not a normal man. Even Yin Xun was very polite to him.


    If he had guessed wrongly or said the wrong thing and provoked Fang Yao, he would be in big trouble.


    His worries were unfounded. Fang Yao thought about what he said and did not agree or disagree. ¡°You seem to know about this kind of thing very well.¡±


    Mi Jin smiled awkwardly and said, ¡°No, no. This is just basic knowledge¡­¡±


    He suddenly paused. He seemed to have said something wrong again.


    Fang Yao did not pay attention to his words. Instead, he looked at Qu Lu thoughtfully.


    Soon, Yin Xun and Mary finished their praying and came out, followed by Qu Lu.


    Fang Yao said to Yin Xun, ¡°Yin Xun, help me get a fortune.¡±


    He pointed to the God of Love Temple, where several unmarried employees were asking for fortunes.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t you go yourself?¡± Yin Xun frowned. How could someone ask for a marriage fortune for someone else?


    Fang Yao glanced at her, took out his wallet, and handed over a hundred yuan bill. He smiled and said, ¡°I don¡¯t have change. The God of Love Temple doesn¡¯t give change either. We can both get one..¡±

    ¡°President Yin, President Fang must be too embarrassed to ask for a fortune. You should help him out,¡± Mary whispered into Yin Xun¡¯s ear.


    Without waiting for Yin Xun to agree, Mary took the money on Yin Xun¡¯s behalf and pulled her into the temple.


    Yin Xun immediately understood what Fang Yao meant. He must have realized that she did not bring any money, so he used the excuse of asking for a fortune to give her money.


    At the thought of this, Yin Xun smiled helplessly. In fact, she was really not interested in the marriage fortune. However, since Fang Yao had said so, she would just ask for one.


    ¡°Yao, didn¡¯t you say that you weren¡¯t interested in this kind of thing?¡± Qu Lu frowned and looked at Fang Yao bitterly.


    ¡°I suddenly feel like getting a fortune.¡± Fang Yao looked at Qu Lu and said, ¡°Qu Lu, come with me.¡±


    The moment she heard Fang Yao calling her to follow him, the displeasure on Qu Lu¡¯s face disappeared. Fang Yao had actually called her out alone!


    She secretly glanced at the note in her hand. On it was the content of the fortune she had drawn. The Daoist priest had said that she received a bad fortune. However, as long as she had a kind heart and did not force anything, marriage would naturally come.


    What did they mean by telling her not to force herself? Happiness was something that she had to fight for personally. Since this fortune was not good, there was no need for her to keep it.


    She threw the note away and rearranged her expression. She smiled and said, ¡°Okay.¡±


    Fang Yao walked in front while Qu Lu followed behind him shyly. Fang Yao must have asked Yin Xun to ask for a fortune because he wanted to find an opportunity to be alone with her. Coincidentally, she also had something to say to Fang Yao.


    When they reached a withered tree, Fang Yao stopped. There were fewer people here.


    ¡°Qu Lu,¡± he said.


    ¡°Yes?¡± Qu Lu¡¯s face turned slightly red as she replied shyly. Her heartbeat quickened. Fang Yao had never addressed her by her name in such a serious manner before.


    Seeing Qu Lu¡¯s reaction, Fang Yao frowned slightly. ¡°1 think I need to tell you again. The issue of marriage is my own business. No one can make the decision for me. You don¡¯t have to keep pestering me. As for my mother, I¡¯ll make her to give up on this idea.¡±


    The smile on Qu Lu¡¯s face froze. She did not expect Fang Yao to call her over to talk about this.


    ¡°B-but I¡­¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t think that I don¡¯t know what you¡¯ve done. You¡¯re the one who made my mother announce that you¡¯re my fiancee in front of Yin Xun and everyone else without my knowledge. As for why you did it, 1 don¡¯t think 1 need to say it out loud.¡± Fang Yao looked at Qu Lu coldly.


    ¡°That¡¯s not it.¡± Qu Lu defended herself. ¡°It¡¯s because Auntie likes me a lot and thinks that we¡¯re compatible. That¡¯s why she did this. 1 didn¡¯t ask her to do it. Is it Yin Xun? She has always disliked me and you guys are cooped together every day. Did she say something to you?¡±


    Tears welled up in Qu Lu¡¯s eyes. She looked as though she had been bullied.


    ¡°No,¡± Fang Yao said. ¡°This is my own business. It has nothing to do with her. For today, you can follow me if you want, but only this once.¡±


    Previously, Fang Yao had rejected Qu Lu many times. He had no feelings for Qu Lu. He also knew that Qu Lu¡¯s constant pestering had something to do with his mother.


    It was precisely because he did not take Qu Lu seriously that he did not care if Qu Lu followed him or not.


    Previously, he only thought that Qu Lu was trying to make a scene. However, since Qu Lu had not done anything that crossed the line, he could only pretend that Qu Lu did not exist.


    However, Mi Jin¡¯s words earlier made him very concerned. If he really decided to pursue Yin Xun, he had to deal with the other girls around him first.


    He had never been in a relationship before and had never paid attention to this aspect. The girls who approached him were either interested in his fame or other benefits. He only felt annoyed and ignored them.


    On the other hand, Lin Chan paid a lot of attention to him and did not allow any ordinary girls to approach him; she blocked them for him one by one.


    Regarding this, he was happy to have peace and quiet. However, the good times did not last long. Soon, Lin Chan pushed Qu Lu to his side, claiming that Qu Lu was the future daughter-in-law she had chosen for him.


    He had refused many times. Under Lin Chan¡¯s coercion, he finally isolated himself in a villa in the suburbs. Who would have thought that the usually dignified and elegant Lin Chan actually had such a personality when it came to private affairs?


    Because Fang Yao was never interested in someone, he did not know what things to pay attention to. Fang Yao lowered his eyes. It seemed like he had to learn from his mistakes before he took action.


    After saying everything he wanted to say, Fang Yao ignored Qu Lu¡¯s reaction and left.


    He did not notice that Qu Lu, who was still standing on the spot, was glaring at him with hatred in her eyes. She was clutching her phone tightly in her hand, as though she would only stop when the phone was crushed.


    When he returned to the God of Love Temple, Yin Xun and Mary had already come out.


    ¡°What did you draw?¡± Fang Yao asked with a faint smile on his lips..

 Chapter 501 - Chapter 501: Youre Drooling

    Chapter 501: You¡¯re Drooling


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Before Yin Xun could say anything, Mary spoke first. ¡°President Fang, there¡¯s no need to split the fortunes between the two of you because we got the best fortune. Even the content is the same.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and handed the slips of paper with the fortune to Fang Yao. Since Fang Yao had spent the money, she would naturally give both fortune to him and see which one he wanted, even if the content was the same.


    Fang Yao took the notes and opened them.


    ¡°It¡¯s indeed a good one.¡± Fang Yao kept one for himself, put it in his pocket, and gave the other to Yin Xun.


    While they were talking, Qu Lu returned. Although she was trying her best to smile, it was a forced smile. It was obvious that she was faking it.


    Yin Xun glanced at her. She did not know what Fang Yao had just said to her, but it was none of her business. After getting ready again, everyone continued to rush to the next scenic spot.


    This tourist attraction was really big. Everyone walked around and had fun until night. However, it was almost the appointed time, so they had to pass up on the remaining attractions.


    Seeing the regret on Yin Xun¡¯s face, Fang Yao bent down slightly and said to her, ¡°1 think it¡¯s too troublesome to pay with cash in this tourist area. 1 need to carry change change. It¡¯ll be much more convenient if I use Xintao¡¯s collection code.¡±


    ¡°You mean¡­¡± Yin Xun¡¯s eyes lit up. If they wanted to promote the payment code, just recommending it to some shops would not have much effect. They should try it in an influential place first.


    When the collection code became popular, other restaurants, shops, and other places would naturally use it.


    The scenic area was the best place to be the pioneer. She was just thinking about how to tell Fang Yao about this, but he brought it up first.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was instantly energized, Fang Yao smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. After all, Xintao is also a project I invested in, so 1 plan to let all the attractions under the Fang Corporation use the collection code. It¡¯s indeed convenient to pay online. Cash is easy to lose, and sometimes you forget to bring money. However, paying online won¡¯t be as troublesome. Everyone can pay as long as they have their phones. I believe everyone would like this method.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao, feeling touched. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll get the technical department to start applying the payment code immediately.¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Fang Yao agreed. Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s shining eyes, he said, ¡°You¡¯re drooling.¡±


    ¡°All?¡± Yin Xun quickly raised her hand to wipe her mouth. Only then did she realize that Fang Yao was lying to her.


    When they returned to the tent area, many employees had already returned. There were only a few left. Everyone¡¯s faces were filled with excitement. It was clear that they were having a good time.


    Qu Lu was by herself and did not pester Fang Yao this time. Instead, she sat quietly at the side and stared at Yin Xun, who was in the crowd. It looked as if she wanted to eat her up.


    However, when someone greeted her, she immediately smiled and revealed her usual gentle expression, as if the expression just now was a trick of the light. ¡°It¡¯s getting late. Why isn¡¯t everyone back yet?¡± It was already time. Fang Yao¡¯s assistant began to count the number of people and realized that there were still three missing.


    The Fang Group was short of one, and Xintao was short of two.


    Fang Yao and Yin Xun asked their assistants to contact the people who had yet to return. When they found out that they had just walked off a little too far, everyone was relieved and was told not to worry.


    The three of them would be back soon. The rest of them could start in advance.


    Those with good culinary skills were in charge of roasting meat and making food. Those who worked tonight would receive cash packets, so everyone was especially enthusiastic. As for those who could not cook, they simply waited at the side for the food to be ready.


    One of the employees suggested, ¡°It¡¯s boring for us to wait like this. Why don¡¯t we make a game? This is our first team-building event, and we¡¯re not familiar with our colleagues from the different departments. We can take this opportunity to get closer.¡± The one who spoke was an employee of Xintao.


    Another person added, ¡°1 agree. Why don¡¯t we take a vote? Those who don¡¯t like socializing can choose not to participate. If you want to play, come and join.¡± After that, he turned his head to ask Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, do you think this is okay?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Of course. I brought everyone here today to relax. You can play as much as you want.¡±


    During this period, other than fighting Blue Fox and Si Fan, she had also been observing her employees.


    After all, the company had just started and these employees were all newbies. They were not familiar with each other and did not know their specific abilities. After observing for a while, Yin Xun realized that as long as their salaries were paid, the employees would take the initiative to work hard..

 Chapter 502 - Chapter 502: Luring Si Fan Into Action

    Chapter 502: Luring Si Fan Into Action


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Employees who slacked off were usually the ones exploited by the company, since they did not give them the remuneration they deserved.


    If you thought about it, who would be willing to risk their lives for others? Was everyone not here to work to earn money? Yin Xun grasped this point and increased the benefits of overtime. Her employees worked overtime on their own free will and she never had to force them.


    Employees who took the initiative to work overtime received the greatest benefits. They were also very serious about their work. This was the key to Xintao¡¯s success now.


    Employees were also humans. They would make friends after work, and building a good relationship with employees was also beneficial to the company. This was also why Yin Xun brought them out on a trip. Now that she saw an employee taking the initiative to be the bond between employees, she would naturally agree.


    Seeing this, Fang Yao also let his employees join in.


    The Fang Group¡¯s way of managing employees was different from Xintao¡¯s. The Fang Group was a mature company. After so many years, everyone was used to working step by step. They had the ability, but they lacked a trace of vitality. Fang Yao could use this opportunity to let their employees follow Xintao¡¯s employees and liberate their nature. This was good for their work.


    If it was in the past, he would definitely not think this way. However, after interacting with Yin Xun, his thoughts also subtly changed.


    The employee who had given the suggestion at the beginning had an active mind. In just a short while, he had thought of several games that were suitable for the outdoors. The stakes were that the winner could make the loser do something.


    This idea was very reasonable. There was no need to spend money. Everyone was just having fun. Most importantly, everyone was a colleague here, so they would not intentionally do anything to embarrass the other party.


    While the employees were having fun, Mary suddenly came over to Yin Xun¡¯s side and whispered into her ear, ¡°President Yin, that paparazzo has already started to monitor Young Master Yin. In the future, he will report Young Master Yin¡¯s situation to you every night.¡±


    With that, she took out her phone and showed Yin Xun the photo sent by the paparazzi.


    ¡°Young Master Yin probably thinks that he is rich now. He has enough money that he can spend as he pleases. He already rented a high-end apartment and bought a lot of expensive daily supplies. I feel that he has no intention of doing business at all,¡± Mary frowned as she reported.


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°Do his friends know about his current situation?¡±


    Mary nodded. ¡°It¡¯s not just that. Young Master Yin has already revealed everything that he knows to them. Not only that, he even invited his friends over to have fun.¡±


    Yin Xun took the phone and began to flip through the photos sent by the paparazzo.


    This paparazzo was indeed capable. He could even take photos of the inside of the house without being discovered by Yin Rui. Moreover, looking at this photo, it was as if the camera was pressed on Yin Rui¡¯s face. It was incredibly clear.


    Yin Xun thought of Si Fan when she saw Yin Rui smiling like a wild horse.


    The paparazzo¡¯s skills were so good that Yin Xun could even get him to keep an eye on Si Fan. As long as she managed to capture the illegal things that Si Fan had done, she could send Si Fan directly to prison and there would be no more incidents after that.


    After returning the phone to Mary, Yin Xun said, ¡°Give me the paparazzo¡¯s contact information later. I¡¯ll contact him personally.¡±


    Mary nodded again. ¡°Okay. But President Yin, what about Young Master Yin?¡±


    ¡°I promised that I wouldn¡¯t bother him during this period of time. Naturally, 1 can¡¯t go back on my word. Let him do whatever he wants.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s expression was calm. Since his friends knew about Yin Rui¡¯s situation, they would definitely lure Yin Rui out of the house. At the same time, they would tell Si Fan about the sum of money he had on him.


    Si Fan was currently short of money. Although that sum of money was not particularly large, it was already tempting enough for the current Si Fan.


    Si Fan knew that Yin Rui was simple and easy to deceive. In order to get that money, he would definitely act soon. This was the best opportunity for him.


    Therefore, what Yin Rui did was not the most important thing now. More important was to keep an eye on what Si Fan would do to Yin Rui.


    ¡°President Yin, do you want to come over and play for a while?¡± Yin Xun had just finished speaking with Mary when an employee came over to carefully invite her over.


    She usually did not put on airs in the company and was good to the employees. Everyone liked her, which was why they mustered the courage to approach her. ¡°Sure,¡± Yin Xun agreed with a smile. She did not forget to drag Mary over. ¡°Let¡¯s go. Come and play together.¡±


    ¡°President Yin, please don¡¯t mind me. 1 am weak at games¡­¡± Yin Xun paid no heed to Mary¡¯s words.


    After throwing Mary into the middle of the employees who were working on the game, Yin Xun ran away.


    She went to Fang Yao, who was roasting some meat. The two employees who were roasting meat with Fang Yao left smartly and went to the other oven to help.


    ¡°This piece has been roasted. Try it.¡± Fang Yao handed the meat skewer to Yin Xun. It had already been sprinkled with seasoning..

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Everyone hasn¡¯t started eating yet. It¡¯s not good for me to eat early.¡± Despite saying that, her hand had already taken the meat skewers. Yin Xun put them into her mouth and said, ¡°Yes, it¡¯s not bad. It¡¯s a familiar taste.¡± It was as delicious as the skewers she ate at Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    ¡°By the way, I came to look for you to talk about serious matters.¡± Yin Xun finished the entire skewer before she remembered what she wanted to say. ¡°Now that Si Fan doesn¡¯t have any real power in Blue Fox, the new leaders are all sly old foxes. They¡¯re smarter than Si Fan. Now that Blue Fox is under their control, I have a feeling that they will first recover and adjust things in Blue Fox. Then, their next step will be to deal with Xintao.¡±


    Fang Yao flipped the roasted meat skewer in his hand and asked, ¡°What do you think they¡¯ll do?¡±


    ¡°Xintao is on the right track now. If we face them head-on, they won¡¯t be able to gain any advantage. 1 think they will try to find Xintao¡¯s weakness. If you¡¯re the decision-maker of Blue Fox, how would you deal with Xintao?¡± The best way to avoid being targeted was to think from the enemy¡¯s perspective.


    This was how business battles worked. You could not just improve yourself. You had to think about how to deal with others and find a way to prevent your company from suffering such a situation.


    ¡°If it were me¡­¡± Fang Yao looked at the meat in his hand and thought for a moment. He analyzed Xintao¡¯s current situation and slowly said, ¡°Delivery. I¡¯ll start with delivery.¡±


    Yin Xun clapped her hands together and said with a smile, ¡°As expected, you¡¯re thinking the same thing as me. There are two delivery systems in Xintao now. Xintao Express is our own, so there¡¯s no need to worry. The only concern is ordinary express delivery. The ordinary express delivery works for Blue Fox and Xintao at the same time. As long as they control the shares of other express delivery companies and forcefully increase the price, it¡¯ll be very disadvantageous for us. Although I¡¯ve helped the boss before, 1 can¡¯t say whether they¡¯ll be bought over by benefits in the end.¡±


    Fang Yao seemed to know what Yin Xun meant. ¡°So you want to buy over Lechang, the ordinary express delivery provider, in advance.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°This is also to ensure that Xintao won¡¯t be affected. Moreover, you¡¯ve seen the turnover of Xintao¡¯s express delivery. Although Lechang is an ordinary express delivery, it uses a lot of people and the costs are low. A little bit goes a long way. The final profit they get is also very considerable.¡±


    Fang Yao looked a little helpless. He asked Yin Xun, ¡°You said all this because you want money, right? Tell me, how much do you want this time?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. When the year-end dividend comes, you¡¯ll know how great your decision was to choose me.¡± Yin Xun smiled ingratiatingly.


    ¡°Choosing you was indeed the right decision.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun with a deep gaze.


    Unfortunately, Yin Xun¡¯s attention was not focused on him from the beginning. She was only staring at the roasted meat in Fang Yao¡¯s hand.


    There was no denying that Fang Yao¡¯s culinary skills were comparable to some chefs. Yin Xun¡¯s stomach growled again when she saw the meat skewers sizzling on the fire and the rich fragrance assaulting her nose.


    Fang Yao sighed slightly. He knew that Yin Xun¡¯s mind was filled with nothing but food and work. It was almost impossible for her to react to other things on her own.


    ¡°Remember to give me the report when you get back,¡± Fang Yao reminded Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun had always been very proactive. After the trip ended, the first thing she did when she returned to the company was to look for Lechang¡¯s boss to discuss this matter.


    Initially, she thought that it would take some time to negotiate, but surprisingly, Lechang¡¯s boss agreed instantly to sell all his shares to Yin Xun. Fang Yao was already prepared to give Yin Xun the required money.


    Yin Xun showed the contract to Fang Yao, who promptly transferred the money over.


    After settling this matter, Yin Xun had nothing to worry about.


    However, Mi Jin, who had been staring at Blue Fox, realized that something was wrong. He came over to look for Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, there is something wrong with Blue Fox¡¯s situation recently.¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Although Blue Fox is at its lowest point now, it¡¯s also a time when we need people the most. I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on over there, but they¡¯re actually starting to lay off people in large numbers, including the capable employees.¡± Mi Jin frowned.


    This situation was too abnormal. If they fired ordinary employees, it could be understood that it was to reduce the company¡¯s expenses. However, he even fired great talents. Could it be that Si Fan did not want the company to continue operating?


    That was impossible. It was clear how much Si Fan valued Blue Fox. He had worked hard to establish Blue Fox all the way back.. How could he give up on it so easily?

    Chapter 504: Something Happened To Ye Wen


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun was not surprised at all when she heard his report. She said calmly, ¡°Blue Fox has changed management now. Naturally, the company will be cleaned up. Those trusted aides of Si Fan in the past will all be fired.¡±


    ¡°Change of management?¡± Mi Jin was still unaware of this.


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun told Mi Jin about Si Fan roping in investors and giving in to profits, as well as about his power being taken away.


    After learning that Si Fan had no power in the company, Mi Jin spat, ¡°Serves him right. I finally see him suffer a setback. Since that¡¯s the case, Si Fan won¡¯t be able to make a comeback in the future.¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, it¡¯s the opposite. Now that Si Fan is free, he can conserve his energy. As long as he¡¯s still the manager of Blue Fox, even if he doesn¡¯t have any real power, he¡¯s still a time bomb.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± Mi Jin pondered for a moment and understood Yin Xun¡¯s words. ¡°Then it seems that we can only consider it our true victory if we eliminate him completely from Blue Fox. No, other than Blue Fox, he has other companies. We have to cut off all his escape routes.¡±


    As the two of them were talking, Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang. Seeing this, Mi Jin left silently.


    Yin Xun took out her phone. There was no caller ID, but as soon as she saw the number, she knew who was calling.


    She pressed the answer button but said nothing.


    After two seconds, Ye Wen¡¯s sobbing voice could be heard from the other end. ¡°President Yin, our plan might have to change. Sha Gao seems to have noticed something. He took my child away and threatened me with that. He told me to come clean with him¡­¡±


    Before Ye Wen could finish, Sha Gao¡¯s voice came from the other side. Yin Xun could vaguely hear that he was cursing.


    Sha Gao was probably saying something to Ye Wen as he walked over. Soon, Yin Xun could make out his words. ¡°Are you dating someone behind my back? Why are you secretly on the phone again? Who are you contacting?!¡± ¡°President Yin, he¡¯s here. He¡¯s gone crazy right now¡­ Ah!¡± With a scream, the call was ended.


    Listening to the beeping sound of the phone being disconnected, Yin Xun immediately became anxious.


    Sha Gao had always restricted Ye Wen¡¯s freedom, so everything she did was monitored. Therefore, the two of them agreed that Yin Xun would not take the initiative to call Ye Wen. If anything happened, Ye Wen would be the one to contact her.


    In order to prevent the connection between the two of them from being discovered, Yin Xun would not say anything every time she picked up the call.


    If Ye Wen had time, she would arrange a time and place with her. They could discuss the specifics after they went outside.


    Clearly, Ye Wen had been discovered this time, and the situation was very serious. Yin Xun did not know if Sha Gao had learned the truth yet.


    How could she help Ye Wen in this situation? Yin Xun thought for a few seconds and called Sha Gao.


    The call was connected very quickly, and Sha Gao¡¯s slightly panting voice could be heard. ¡°President Yin, is anything the matter?¡±


    ¡°President Sha, I suddenly thought of some questions about the project we¡¯re collaborating on. Do you have time now? Why don¡¯t we meet and have a good talk?¡± Yin Xun asked calmly.


    There was no response from Sha Gao immediately. Yin Xun wondered what had happened to Ye Wen. She was very worried, but she did not let it show.


    Sha Gao was not expecting such a sudden call from Yin Xun for a discussion. He declined and said, ¡°President Yin, 1 am afraid I cannot do it today. 1 have something on now. How about we discuss it tomorrow?¡±


    ¡°It must today. If President Sha doesn¡¯t want to talk about it, then we¡¯ll forget it.¡± Yin Xun said coldly.


    Since Yin Xun was currently investing in Sha Gao, he quickly agreed when he heard Yin Xun¡¯s tone turn cold. ¡°Alright, then where do you think we should talk¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll go to your company now. It¡¯s very urgent. 1 hope we can get it done as soon as possible.¡± Yin Xun hung up the phone after saying that, then called Mary over.


    She handed Mary one of the contracts she had drawn up earlier. ¡°Take this with you, Mary, and talk to Sha Gao. It doesn¡¯t matter how it turns out, as long as it keeps him occupied for a while.¡±


    Mary took the contract and scanned through it. She was shocked as she said, ¡°President Yin, how can I handle this kind of negotiation? This is something that you should do personally.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s why the result isn¡¯t important. You can talk about it however you want.


    I have something else to do. Oh right, I¡¯ll get my bodyguard to go with you. Sha Gao is dangerous. You just have to be careful not to be alone with him.¡± With that, Yin Xun pushed Mary out of the office.


    She knew where Sha Gao¡¯s home was. Ye Wen had told her. She just did not know if it was a good idea to go over now. She was not concerned about her safety, but she was just worried that someone would keep an eye on Ye Wen and find out that she was in contact with her. It would make things even worse for Ye Wen..

 Chapter 505 - Chapter 505: Job-hopping To Xintao

    Chapter 505: Job-hopping To Xintao


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    It was clear that Ye Wen had been assaulted by Sha Gao just now. The law here did not get involved with cases of domestic violence. It was only considered a conflict between husband and wife.


    Therefore, even if Ye Wen called the police, there was no way to solve it. Instead, it would only anger Sha Gao and cause her to be beaten even more ruthlessly.


    The only solution was to get the two of them to divorce. However, Sha Gao had gotten the news from someone and knew that Ye Wen owned other businesses. He wanted Ye Wen to transfer those businesses to his name.


    When Ye Wen refused, Sha Gao took their child away and did not let Ye Wen see them. Ye Wen was already restrained, and now she did not dare to do anything.


    After thinking about it, Yin Xun took out her other old phone and was about to call Ye Wen to see how she was doing.


    Before she could make the call, Ye Wen called her again.


    ¡°President Yin, he went out.¡± Ye Wen¡¯s voice was trembling as she said, ¡°Earlier, before he kicked the door open and came in, I deleted the call information with you, so he did not know that we were in contact.¡±


    Yin Xun frowned. ¡°How are you now?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. The good news is that when he was hitting me just now, he accidentally let something slip. 1 found out the name of his mistress. I also know where she is living. President Yin, can you help me check on that?¡±


    Yin Xun agreed. ¡°Sure, but you¡¯re¡­¡±


    Ye Wen¡¯s laughed tremblingly. ¡°I¡¯m fine. Just help me check that person¡¯s information. Everything else will be fine.¡±


    Seeing that Ye Wen insisted on resolving it herself, Yin Xun stopped persuading her.


    As long as she helped Ye Wen get her company back, Ye Wen would give her the core technology. For now, she just had to cooperate with Ye Wen. Although she was worried, she chose to believe in Ye Wen.


    When it came to investigating people, Mi Jin was the best candidate. Although the Internet was not developed yet, as long as someone was online, they would leave traces on the Internet.


    Finding people was a piece of cake for hackers.


    Sure enough, after Yin Xun told Mi Jin about this, Mi Jin said that as long as he was given the person¡¯s name and address, he would be able to find their phone number too. He could do this by going through various websites registered with the phone number. However, this would take time.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll leave this to you. i  don¡¯t have to worry if you¡¯re in charge,¡± Yin Xun said with relief.


    Asking for help from Mi Jin was the best decision. His methods were always the most convenient.


    ¡°Oh yeah, President Yin. One of my former colleagues contacted me just now. He said that he wanted to join our company. He is a capable man and has helped Si Fan a lot in the past. But because he was in the management of Blue Fox, he felt that he might not be able to get in with an ordinary interview. He wanted me to help him pull some strings as he hopes to meet you. Do you want to meet him?¡±


    ¡°Blue Fox¡¯s management?¡± Yin Xun suddenly thought of Fang Yao¡¯s words. Fang Yao said that Si Fan might plan to arrange for an undercover agent to come over. Could it be this person? ¡°What¡¯s his name? Were you guys very close in the past?¡±


    ¡°His name is Zhu Chuan. We used to eat together often. I had the impression that he took advantage of others and stole a lot of the company¡¯s things. However, because he was capable, Si Fan kept him around. He said that the company has become too crazy now. The previous management team was targeted, so he couldn¡¯t stay any longer. That¡¯s why he wanted to jump ship to our company,¡± Mi Jin said.


    The corners of Yin Xun¡¯s mouth twitched. ¡°Stealing? Is such a person reliable?¡±


    ¡°Well, he usually just steals the company¡¯s soap, toilet paper, and so on. It¡¯s not a big deal, so no one really cares. If you think this person isn¡¯t a good fit, forget it. i¡¯ll tell him later,¡± Mi Jin said indifferently.


    Right now, Xintao was in need of someone who could handle management, which was why Mi Jin tried to recommend Zhu Chuan. He did not have much feelings for Zhu Chuan. When he was at his lowest, other than Yin Xun who sincerely tried to help him, everyone else only watched the show.


    The decision depended on Yin Xun¡¯s intentions. If Yin Xun said no, he would reject him directly.


    Yin Xun thought about it and asked, ¡°Where is he now?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s at home. He left his job, but he was too embarrassed to come to Xintao directly, so he asked me to help pass the message,¡± Mi Jin said.


    He seemed to be quite prideful. Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Then tell me his number. i¡¯ll talk to him.¡±


    Mi Jin gave Zhu Chuan¡¯s phone number to Yin Xun, who called him directly.


    ¡°Hello, Mr. Zhu. i heard that you want to join Xintao, right?¡± Yin Xun asked calmly. ¡°Can you tell me why you want to come here? As I understand, you¡¯re an old employee of Blue Fox.. You wouldn¡¯t suddenly jump ship for no reason, right?¡±

 Chapter 506 - Chapter 506: Schemes

    Chapter 506: Schemes


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°President Yin, I sincerely want to join your company. As for the reason, if I said that I want to change my environment and challenge myself, I¡¯m sure you won¡¯t believe such cheesy words. 1 will say it bluntly. I¡¯m looking to join Xintao because I was fired by Blue Fox.¡± Zhu Chuan¡¯s tone was calm, and he did not sound embarrassed about being fired at all.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°You¡¯re quite honest. However, since you were fired by Blue Fox, perhaps you are not suitable for an internet company. After all, Xintao and Blue Fox are about the same type.¡±


    Zhu Chuan said, ¡°Before I contacted you, I knew that you would say that. Regarding Blue Fox¡¯s current situation, I¡¯m sure you know about it very well. I was fired not because of my ability, but because of the change in leadership. Therefore, our management team was also cleaned up. You don¡¯t have to worry about my ability at all. On the contrary, I assure you I can help to improve Xintao¡¯s prospects.¡±


    ¡°Oh?¡± Yin Xun did not expect Zhu Chuan to be so confident. She asked curiously, ¡°How can you do things better?¡±


    ¡°I have proof, of course, but it¡¯s not appropriate to talk about this over the phone. Why don¡¯t we meet and talk about it? A talent like me will be snatched by the leaders of many companies. The reason I chose Xintao is partly because 1 want to fight back against Blue Fox.¡± Zhu Chuan¡¯s tone was a little pompous; it was as though Yin Xun was making the request instead of him.


    Since he said it like that, Yin Xun was interested. Since she had nothing else to do now, she agreed quickly. ¡°Okay, you can come over now.¡±


    After hanging up the phone with Yin Xun, Zhu Chuan dialed another number.


    His originally confident expression immediately turned into a fawning smile when the other party picked up the call. ¡°Hehe, President Si, Yin Xun has agreed to meet me. She seems to be very interested in what 1 have to say.¡±


    Si Fan¡¯s triumphant voice came from the other end of the line. ¡°Well done. She¡¯s just a woman, after all. She can only see the surface of things and will never pay attention to the true essence. Don¡¯t worry, as long as she agrees to see you, she will definitely be tempted by your conditions. We¡¯re talking about Blue Fox¡¯s internal secrets. No one will be able to resist.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s just one thing¡­¡± Zhu Chuan suddenly thought of something and was a little worried. ¡°What if she doubts the authenticity of this document?¡±


    Si Fan spat, ¡°Are you stupid? Why do you think I asked you to look for Mi Jin and get him to speak up for you? There¡¯s no conflict between you and Mi Jin. You two used to have a good relationship and had meals together every day. With his level of intelligence, he won¡¯t suspect you. Yin Xun trusts Mi Jin a lot and won¡¯t suspect you either.¡±


    ¡°After all, if Mi Jin could gain her trust, so can you, especially since you have so much to offer. Besides, this document is real. Let her investigate. Wouldn¡¯t it confirm that she wants to steal secrets if she investigates?¡±


    ¡°Oh, 1 thought you asked me to contact Mi Jin because you were worried that I wouldn¡¯t be able to meet Yin Xun through a normal interview. Then I wouldn¡¯t be able to hand the things to her.¡± Zhu Chuan finally understood what Si Fan meant.


    No matter what happened, it was fine as long as Yin Xun believed that the document in his hand was real.


    Si Fan gave more instructions. ¡°Don¡¯t let Yin Xun see through you. As long as you pass the document to her, she¡¯ll break the law. When the time comes, we¡¯ll call the police. Let¡¯s see how she runs Xintao when she¡¯s in prison. Isn¡¯t calling the police her favorite hobby? Then let her have a taste of her own medicine.¡± ¡°If she actually wants me to stay, should 1 agree or refuse?¡± Zhu Chuan asked.


    Si Fan said impatiently, ¡°What nonsense is this? I¡¯ve already called the police. You¡¯re going to give her this document. Do you think you can still stay in Xintao?¡±


    When Si Fan said this, it reminded Zhu Chuan of an important point. After Si Fan called the police, what would happen to him?


    ¡°President Si, if we call the police, won¡¯t I get arrested too?¡± Zhu Chuan asked worriedly.


    There was silence on the other end of the line. Obviously, Si Fan had no response to Zhu Chuan¡¯s question.


    Zhu Chuan would definitely be arrested, but Si Fan could not say it out loud. Otherwise, Zhu Chuan would not agree to do it. If he had known this would happen, he would not have brought up this topic. Si Fan regretted it in his heart.


    After a long while, he comforted Zhu Chuan. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. With my connections, it will be easy for me to protect you. After we succeed with this, you will be the number one contributor to our Blue Fox. In the future, when 1 regain my power, you will be my top confidant.¡±


    With Si Fan¡¯s assurance, Zhu Chuan was relieved.


    He tidied up briefly and rehearsed what he would say to Yin Xun to make it more natural. After he was ready, he hurried over to Xintao..

 Chapter 507 - Chapter 507: Shes An Accomplice

    Chapter 507: She¡¯s An Accomplice


    Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun had already informed the front desk, and Zhu Chuan was brought to the reception room as soon as he arrived.


    ¡°Mr. Zhu, let¡¯s continue the topic we discussed on the phone. You said that you have evidence to deal with Blue Fox. What do you mean by that? We¡¯re talking face-to-face now. You should be able to speak, right?¡± Yin Xun asked him with a polite smile.


    Zhu Chuan did not reply directly, but he turned his head to look at the door. When he saw that there was no one at the door, he mysteriously took out a document from his briefcase and handed it over to Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, take a look. This is my sincerity.¡±


    Yin Xun took it. There were no words written on the surface of the document. She flipped the pages open and saw densely packed words. There were about a dozen pages. It would take a while to read through it all.


    ¡°What document is this?¡± Yin Xun quickly flipped through it. She had only skimmed through it a few times.


    This document seemed to be about some technical and client information. She had not read anything else but the most conspicuous part in the middle.


    Zhu Chuan said, ¡°This is the information that I¡¯ve summarized after being a manager for many years. It will definitely help you understand Blue Fox. Of course, don¡¯t worry. These are all my own experiences. They¡¯re not trade secrets, so you don¡¯t have to worry.¡±


    ¡°Looks like you¡¯re indeed very capable. You actually wrote so much on your own.¡± Yin Xun closed the document and handed it back to Zhu Chuan.


    Zhu Chuan did not take it make. ¡°This document is my sincerity in wanting to join your company. You can keep it directly as long as you promise me a position with prospects. In the future, I will rely on my own ability to work hard!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll consider your suggestion. Flowever, recruitment is not my responsibility alone. Our Xintao has very strict requirements for the responsibilities of the various departments. If you want a job, I¡¯ll have to discuss it with the person in charge of that position. So, wait for me for a while,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile. At the same time, she personally stood up and poured a cup of tea for Zhu Chuan.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Zhu Chuan saw Yin Xun personally pouring tea for him, and his face was filled with unconcealable smugness.


    Yin Xun walked out of the living room and closed the door behind her.


    She moved further away. Just as she took out her phone, she saw Mi Jin walking over.


    ¡°President Yin, what do you think of him?¡± Mi Jin came down to take a look at the situation here.


    ¡°He¡¯s too sincere. I can¡¯t accept this, so it¡¯s better to let the police handle it,¡± Yin Xun said and took out her phone to call the police. She roughly explained the situation here.


    Mi Jin, who was at a loss, finally understood why Yin Xun called the police when he heard the explanation. Zhu Chuan had actually offered business secrets.


    ¡°President Yin, could it be that you have made a mistake? Business secrets are confidential, how could an ordinary manager get them? Are you sure it¡¯s not just his own hypothesis?¡± After Yin Xun hung up the phone, Mi Jin could not help but ask.


    Yin Xun smiled helplessly. ¡°Firstly, that document even contains the client¡¯s detailed information. If it¡¯s really just a summary of his own work, there¡¯s no way he would know this. Secondly, if it¡¯s really a summary of his own work as he said, the information could be precious enough for such complete negotiations, but he only asked for a random position. Thirdly, I haven¡¯t even read it yet, but he was in a hurry to explain that it¡¯s not a trade secret.¡±


    Mi Jin did not believe her. ¡°I still think you¡¯re jumping to conclusions a little. He¡¯s well-known for caring for his own interests. There¡¯s no way he would take such a huge risk for a job. This is also the reason I recommended him.¡±


    After Mi Jin finished speaking, he was worried that Yin Xun would get offended, so he hurriedly added, ¡°Of course, I will follow whatever President Yin thinks. I am not good at this, after all. I will do whatever you say.¡±


    Seeing the unsatisfied look on Mi Jin¡¯s face, Yin Xun did not say anything. There was no point in saying anything now. Mi Jin would only believe it when he saw the outcome.


    The police responded quickly. It did not take long for them to arrive and take Zhu Chuan away.


    When Zhu Chuan was taken away by the police, he was still shouting, ¡°Hey, hey. There¡¯s also Yin Xun, why are you only arresting me? Don¡¯t leave her behind. We exchanged this confidential document. She¡¯s an accomplice!¡±


    He thought that Si Fan was the one who called the police. He did not even wait for the police to ask and directly confessed to the crime.


    Looking at what was happening in front of him, ATi Jin was speechless. It seemed that Yin Xun was right again..

 Chapter 508 - Chapter 508: Si Fans Tricks

    Chapter 508: Si Fan¡¯s Tricks


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Sorry, President Yin. I misread the situation!¡± After the police left, Mi Jin bowed deeply to Yin Xun to express his remorse.


    ¡°However, 1 really didn¡¯t think we would do such a thing. Only Si Fan has access to confidential documents. Zhu Chuan values his life so much, but he actually took such a huge risk for Si Fan. It¡¯s abnormal.¡±


    Yin Xun sneered. ¡°It might be true that he was fired, but a big company like Blue Fox is restricted by labor laws. There is a penalty for firing people for no reason. Therefore, they must have some concrete reason for firing him. If he has a criminal record, it will be difficult for Zhu Chuan to find another job in the future. At the very least, it will definitely not be anything as nice as working at Blue Fox. Si Fan might have used this fact to bribe him. As long as he is promised enough rewards, he will agree to do it.¡±


    Mi Jin sighed and said with a frown, ¡°Looks like Si Fan is really good at winning over people¡¯s hearts. However, with his character, I can¡¯t imagine that people still believe him.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not about whether they believe him, but whether they have a choice. Right now, Si Fan has only temporarily lost his power, but he¡¯s still the core figure of Blue Fox. No one wants to fall out with him. Si Fan is not easy to deal with now. Otherwise, those capitalists would have kicked Si Fan out long ago. They haven¡¯t done so yet because they¡¯re afraid of him. Or perhaps Blue Fox still needs his ability for now,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°He caused Blue Fox¡¯s reputation to plummet and their profits to decrease. After doing so many unimaginable things, 1 thought he would definitely be isolated and meet his downfall. I didn¡¯t think he was still able to fight. Dealing with him is a challenge.¡± Thinking of Si Fan¡¯s methods, Mi Jin could not help but feel a chill in his heart.


    Si Fan loved to play dirty tricks when he could not defeat others head-on. If Yin Xun had kept Zhu Chuan this time, what awaited her would be the punishment of the law.


    According to the law, an accomplice who stole trade secrets would also be charged with a very serious crime. If Yin Xun was gone, Xintao would naturally be finished.


    What would Si Fan do next? It felt like it was impossible to guard against all his tricks.


    ¡°When will Si Fan fall, just like I did in the past¡­¡± Mi Jin could not help gritting his teeth when he thought of his life before he met Yin Xun.


    No one hated Si Fan more than him. Si Fan had ruined his life, but after going through so much, Si Fan was still high and mighty. Mi Jin could not accept it.


    Yin Xun saw that Mi Jin was in low spirits and knew that he was thinking about the past again. She comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. In the end, Si Fan will definitely end up in a worse situation than yours.¡±


    Mi Jin,¡±¡­¡±


    Although these words were meant to comfort him, why did it feel so strange?


    Yin Xun added, ¡°Si Fan is playing with fire. If he makes a mistake, he¡¯ll get himself into trouble. He believes that I¡¯ll keep Zhu Chuan here, but he¡¯s overlooked the possibility of me calling the police directly. If it was really him who instructed Zhu Chuan to do this, it¡¯s very likely that he¡¯ll get exposed by Zhu Chuan. Even if he¡¯s not implicated by the law, the new higher-ups of Blue Fox will be very concerned about him potentially giving out confidential documents. In the future, they might be wary of Si Fan in their meetings.¡±


    If they fired Si Fan¡¯s trusted aides and were on guard against Si Fan during important meetings, or prevented him from participating altogether, Si Fan would not be able to obtain new information and would slowly be derailed from the company.


    When Si Fan had no more power and did not pose any threat to the new higher-ups, it would be time for him to be kicked out of Blue Fox.


    ¡°Since this isn¡¯t 100% beneficial to Si Fan, why would he take this risk?¡± Mi Jin asked doubtfully.


    ¡°Of course, he plans to pave the way for what¡¯s going to happen next. Right now, because of the change in management, Blue Fox has caused a large number of employees to be fired. Some of these employees who were fired will definitely want to join Xintao. He used this as a cover to get Zhu Chuan to come over. Since Zhu Chuan has failed, Si Fan will definitely send someone else over using other methods,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Mi Jin felt a little helpless. This was indeed in line with Si Fan¡¯s character. He would do anything to achieve his goals.


    However, Mi Jin was still a little worried. ¡°What if you didn¡¯t notice the people he sent over next time? What if you fall into his trap? I think we should just ban the interviews of Blue Fox¡¯s employees and prevent such a thing from happening.¡±


    ¡°That won¡¯t do.¡± Yin Xun said indifferently, ¡°Now that we know that Si Fan plans to plant spies, it¡¯s easier to guard against him. If we stop him from planting spies, then he¡¯ll think of other ways to fight us.¡±


    ¡°True.¡± Mi Jin nodded.


    The news of Zhu Chuan¡¯s arrest quickly reached Cheng She¡¯s ears. He went to report to Si Fan fearfully..

 Chapter 509 - Chapter 509: Discarding A Used Tool

    Chapter 509: Discarding A Used Tool


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When he heard the news, the outcome was just as Cheng She had expected. Si Fan was so furious that he threw everything on the table and snarled, ¡°Trash, nothing but trash. 1 spent so much effort to help him get the secret documents out, but he can¡¯t even do such a small thing!¡±


    Cheng She said, ¡°Actually, it was inevitable. Yin Xun has always been very cautious. Otherwise, she wouldn¡¯t have¡­¡±


    Si Fan looked at Cheng She coldly and asked through gritted teeth, ¡°Are you speaking up for Yin Xun?¡±


    Cheng She stammered, ¡°No, no. I just think¡­ Zhu Chuan was a fool. He failed to make good use of such a good opportunity!¡±


    ¡°Have you dealt with this? Will the police find out about us?¡± Si Fan had a sudden thought after he was done venting and asked warily.


    ¡°President Si, don¡¯t worry. I didn¡¯t leave any evidence from the moment I handed the documents to Zhu Chuan. It¡¯s just that¡­¡± He looked at Si Fan nervously. ¡°It¡¯ll be fine as long as you didn¡¯t leave any evidence when you communicated with him.¡±


    Upon hearing Cheng Shi¡¯s words, Si Fan heaved a sigh of relief. ¡°That¡¯s fine. I only called Zhu Chuan. Zhu Chuan¡¯s phone doesn¡¯t have a recording function.¡±


    Convinced that he would not be implicated, Si Fan relaxed and asked, ¡°How¡¯s the situation on Zhu Chuan¡¯s side?¡±


    ¡°Zhu Chuan probably thought that you were the one who called the police, so he insisted that Yin Xun was an accomplice. Later, when he found out that Yin Xun was the one who called the police, he changed his mind and said that you were the one who asked him to do it. He even shouted that you had connections in the police station and that he was your follower. He told those police officers that they should watch out for you.¡± At this point, Cheng She complained in his heart. Zhu Chuan was courting death by saying these things.


    Si Fan picked up a small vase beside him. Cheng She instinctively stepped back.


    Recently, Si Fan had been isolated by the management of Blue Fox. His temper was getting weirder and weirder. He would throw things at the drop of a hat and hit people more frequently. There were a few times when Si Fan almost knocked his head off.


    Every time Cheng She came to the Si residence, he would see Si Fan hitting Yin Mo. This was simply domestic violence. Most importantly, Yin Mo was a fool. She was willing to be hit by Si Fan and did not resist.


    At first, he felt a little sorry for her. However, when he realized that Yin Mo asked for it, he dismissed that sentiment.


    However, this did not prevent him from feeling that Si Fan was extremely violent.


    However, this time, Si Fan had no intention of throwing anything. He just gently stroked the vase and said slowly, ¡°As long as there¡¯s no evidence, we don¡¯t have to worry about anything. Even the police can¡¯t do anything to me.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Cheng She frowned. ¡°Zhu Chuan might call you.¡±


    Just as he finished speaking, Si Fan¡¯s phone rang.


    Si Fan motioned for Cheng She to shut up, then pressed the answer button.


    Zhu Chuan¡¯s voice came from the phone. ¡°President Si, I¡¯ve been arrested for leaking the company¡¯s secrets. Please save me!¡±


    ¡°Oh?¡± Si Fan pretended to be surprised. ¡°You actually stole the company¡¯s secrets! Hmph, to think 1 trusted you so much before. You disappoint me!¡± Zhu Chuan hurriedly said, ¡°President Si, don¡¯t you remember? You promised that I would be fine. You can¡¯t do this¡­¡±


    Si Fan interrupted Zhu Chuan. ¡°I¡¯ll take responsibility for my own actions. Why are you trying to drag me down with you over a mistake that you made?¡± With those words, he hung up.


    Discarding a used tool was indeed in line with Si Fan¡¯s personality. Cheng She was amazed by what he saw, but he did not dare to show it on his face.


    Si Fan seemed to feel that it was not good to say things like that in front of Cheng She. He explained, ¡°That man planned to betray me for a long time, so I won¡¯t help him. Cheng She, you definitely won¡¯t betray me, right?¡±


    Cheng She¡¯s heart tightened and he hurriedly said, ¡°Of course not. President Si has given me a new life!¡±


    In the end, he added another sentence in his heart. ¡®Do you expect me to believe that?¡¯ He had followed this matter closely all the way. Si Fan must really think that he was a fool and easy to deceive.


    Seeing this, Si Fan nodded in satisfaction. ¡°Mmm, not bad. You¡¯ve been with me for many years. 1 know your personality better than anyone. Otherwise, I wouldn¡¯t have sacrificed so much to send you out as a spy. However, you have to wait a little longer. That woman, Yin Xun, does have some brains. She¡¯s different from Yin Mo. In order for you to gain her trust, 1 need to make some preparations.¡±


    Cheng She wanted to cry when he heard the words ¡°send you out as a spy¡±. He wanted to refuse, but he did not dare to say it.


    Cheng She had a premonition that he would very likely become the next Zhu Chuan. What could he do? Who doomed him with such a bitter life?


    ¡°By the way, President Si, there¡¯s something else I forgot to tell you.¡± Cheng Shi suddenly remembered that he had a second matter to report to Si Fan.


    ¡°Wang Bei hasn¡¯t been able to contact you directly, so he asked me to inform you that Yin Rui was chased out by Yin Xun and isn¡¯t allowed to go home now..¡±

 Chapter 510 - Chapter 510: Eyeing Yin Ruis Money

    Chapter 510: Eyeing Yin Rui¡¯s Money


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Fan was pleased. ¡°Finally some good news. Tell me what¡¯s going on.¡±


    ¡°He says that Yin Xun was furious that Yin Rui only played and ate. He never contributed anything, and then Yin Cheng was hospitalized. Yin Xun now had the authority of the family, so she chased him out. I heard that Yin Rui didn¡¯t bring anything when he left.¡±


    ¡°I knew it. Yin Xun instigated Yin Cheng to sever ties with Yin Mo and chased Yin Rui out of the family. She wants to monopolize the Yin family¡¯s assets. I bet Yin Rui must hate her to death now. If we use this fact, we can show Yin Xun what it feels like to be abandoned by everyone.¡± Si Fan sneered, feeling even more confident.


    Yin Xun had made him suffer a defeat, so what? Yin Rui was now his new chess piece. As long as he made good use of him, Yin Xun¡¯s good days would come to an end.


    Yin Mo was a pawn that could be reused. If he had both Yin Mo and Yin Rui, he was confident he could deal with Yin Xun.


    ¡°You can leave now. I want to talk to Wang Bei about this personally.¡± Si Fan waved his hand, indicating for Cheng She to leave.


    Cheng She heaved a sigh of relief. ¡°President Si, then 1¡¯11 go back to the company first.¡±


    With that, he quickly left the Si residence without any hesitation.


    On his way out, Cheng She passed Yin Mo¡¯s room. The door was ajar, and there were faint sobs coming from inside.


    He could not help but sneak a peek inside and was shocked.


    The person sitting on the bed should be Yin Mo. At this moment, her body was tied with chains. Si Fan was imprisoning her!


    Should he call the police? However, when he thought of Si Fan¡¯s methods, Cheng She immediately gave up on this idea.


    He could not even protect himself now, let alone help Yin Mo.


    ¡°Sigh¡­¡± With a heavy breath, Cheng She thought to himself, ¡®Let¡¯s pray for the best.¡¯


    Si Fan did not know that Cheng She saw Yin Mo. After Cheng She left his study, he took out another phone from the drawer and switched it on. Sure enough, there were more than ten missed calls, all of them from Wang Bei.


    He dialed back, and the call was quickly picked up.


    ¡°Cheng She told me everything. What¡¯s Yin Rui¡¯s situation now?¡± Si Fan asked in a low voice.


    Wang Bei excitedly reported to Si Fan, ¡°President Si, that kid is really sneaky. At first, I thought that he had nothing when he was chased out. Later, I realized that something was amiss. He has enough money to buy luxury goods. 1 interrogated him and he finally admitted it. Guess what?¡±


    Si Fan snapped impatiently, ¡°Wang Bei, how dare you keep me in suspense? Do you want to die?¡±


    ¡°No, no. I wouldn¡¯t dare.¡± Wang Bei smiled apologetically. ¡°I don¡¯t know if Yin Xun gave the money to him or if he stole it. In any case, he has a large sum of money in his account! He said that he has to rely on himself now, so he wants to do some business dealings. President Si, I¡¯m sure that money sounds tempting to you. Why don¡¯t we help you swindle him out of his money?¡±


    ¡°Wait!¡± Si Fan sneered. ¡°Of course, I want this money, but now is not the time. This one-off sum of money isn¡¯t enough, is it? I was originally worried about how to find an opening to attack him. Now that Yin Xun chased him out, naturally, I will be making a move. You should know the fastest way to get money, right?¡±


    Wang Bei said, ¡°You mean¡­¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right, drag him down. As long as Yin Rui is still a member of the Yin family legally, the entire Yin family will not have a good time in the future.¡± Si Fan did not clearly say what he wanted to do, but Wang Bei immediately understood. This was their goal from the beginning.


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll do as you say, President Si!¡±


    After hanging up, Si Fan already could already see his triumph in the future.


    Yin Xun was always targeting him, right? Now, the Yin family¡¯s situation was not good either. Two of their children had been chased out. One was about to lose her heart, and the other was about to meet his downfall. Yin Cheng was also still hospitalized.


    Soon, Yin Xun would be the only one left. She would be at his mercy.


    Meanwhile, Yin Rui did not know that he had been betrayed by his good pal. He had already prepared dinner with a few others and was waiting for Wang Bei to come back to eat.


    Just now, Wang Bei had said that he wanted to go out for a smoke. He had offered Wang Bei to smoke indoors, but Wang Bei said that he wanted to go out for a breather. In the end, he had been out for a long time and had yet to return.


    ¡°Why isn¡¯t he back yet? Did he get lost? 1¡¯11 go get him,¡± Yin Rui said and made to leave.


    Gou Chang immediately stopped him and said with a smile, ¡°I¡¯ll go. That guy is always like this. He can¡¯t stop after he starts smoking.¡±


    Was Wang Bei like that in the past? Yin Rui was puzzled.


    Having known Wang Bei for so long, he rarely saw him smoke. However, with the constant interruptions of his other friends, he stopped thinking about it..

    Chapter 511: Suspecting Yin Xun

    Yin Rui did not know how to cook, but he could still help.


    He brought the dishes to the table with his friends. After a while, Wang Bei and Gou Chang returned together. Their expressions were unnatural as they stared at Yin Rui.


    ¡°Are you two possessed or something?¡± Yin Rui stretched out a hand and waved it in front of the two of them.


    The two of them hurriedly said, ¡°No, no.¡±


    Wang Bei said, ¡°I was thinking about what you¡¯re going to do in the future now that you¡¯ve been chased out of the house by your sister. We¡¯re all good pals. I can¡¯t just ignore you when you¡¯re in trouble. What exactly did your sister chase you out for? She chased her younger sister away just a while ago and immediately chased you out next. Could it be as the rumors say? Does she really want to hoard your family¡¯s assets herself?¡±


    ¡°What do you mean by younger sister? My second sister? She chased out Second Sister too?¡± Yin Rui stood up abruptly and stared at Wang Bei as he asked. Because he moved so forcefully, he hit the table and almost knocked the bowl over.


    He never heard Yin Xun mention this before. Now that he heard about it, he remembered that Yin Xun was indeed in a bad mood the day he was chased out.


    However, no matter what mistakes were made, he could not stand to watch Yin Mo get chased away. Although Yin Mo was usually a little silly, she was still a very kind person. Moreover, Yin Mo and Si Fan had always treated him well.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be so agitated. Sit down.¡± Wang Bei was sitting next to Yin Rui. He was shocked by the sudden action and quickly pulled Yin Rui by the arm to signal him to calm down. ¡°Didn¡¯t you know? Yin Mo was chased out of the house by your eldest sister. I heard that because of your eldest sister¡¯s ruthlessness, even your father got so angry that he was hospitalized. He hasn¡¯t been discharged yet.¡±


    Wang Bei¡¯s words were like adding fuel to the fire. Yin Rui had just sat down when he heard this news. He stood up again with a face full of disbelief. ¡°My father is hospitalized? Even I didn¡¯t hear about this. How could you know?¡±


    When he first left home, he was very excited. He was overjoyed that finally, no one would bother him. Even though he was excited, he was also puzzled. Why did Yin Cheng not contact him before he left?


    Usually, if they did not see each other for a day, Yin Cheng would call him like a madman to find out what he was doing. He was always so annoyed. This time, when he left home, Yin Cheng did not even call him once. He found it unnatural.


    Initially, he wanted to contact Yin Cheng, but he was afraid of being scolded. He was also afraid that Yin Cheng would suddenly think of him and decide to control him more, which was why he did not dare to contact him. Yin Rui did not expect him to be hospitalized!


    Gou Chang snorted coldly and said, ¡°This news has already spread everywhere. Your elder sister is really something¡­¡±


    Before he could finish speaking, Wang Bei shot him a look.


    Gou Chang immediately realized that he had accidentally said what was on his mind and quickly changed his words. ¡°Your elder sister is too ruthless. She doesn¡¯t even hold back against her family. I¡¯ve never seen such a person. She¡¯s already so rich. What¡¯s wrong with supporting the two of you? She¡¯s your elder sister and has the obligation to support you. Besides, the family assets should have belonged to you. You¡¯re the only son in the family. It¡¯s only right for the son to inherit the assets. What right does a woman like her have to take your things? She¡¯s a vicious one.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡± Another person chimed in, ¡°Yin Rui, you¡¯re too kind and innocent. You were deceived by your vicious sister. She took advantage of your father¡¯s hospitalization to chase you away. But don¡¯t worry, we¡¯re on your side. If you want us to, we¡¯ll definitely help you return to the Yin family to reclaim the family assets from her. When you get rich, don¡¯t forget about your good pals.¡±


    Hearing Gou Chang slander Yin Xun, Yin Rui immediately felt a little unhappy.


    Although he also blamed Yin Xun privately, she was still his sister. He could argue with her as much as he wanted, but outsiders should not insult her.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Just as he was about to speak up for Yin Xun, he suddenly remembered that his deal with Yin Xun had to be kept a secret. He could not tell anyone about this business, so he did not say anything.


    In any case, his friends were all thinking for him. They did not have any bad intentions, so there was no need to be so calculative.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know about my father and Second Sister. I¡¯ll call them and ask.¡± Yin Rui acted very fast. He took out his phone and was about to make a call.


    Wang Bei reacted quickly and snatched the phone away. He hastily said, ¡°You can¡¯t call them now!¡±


    If he called them, they would be exposed immediately. They knew that it was actually Yin Mo who had made Yin Cheng so angry that he was hospitalized. Perhaps Yin Xun just chased Yin Rui out when she was in a bad mood. Perhaps when Yin Xun¡¯s anger subsided, she would call Yin Rui back.


    However, before Yin Rui got home, their group could not let Yin Rui contact his family. There were still things to do later. If the plan was ruined, Si Fan would skin them alive.


    ¡°Why can¡¯t I call them?¡± Yin Rui frowned..

 Chapter 512 - Chapter 512: Blocked By His Father

    Chapter 512: Blocked By His Father


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Wang Bei smiled awkwardly and stammered, ¡°Because¡­ because¡­¡±


    He thought of the mission Si Fan had given him. He was told to try his best to destroy the relationship between Yin Rui and Yin Xun and pull Yin Rui into Yin Mo¡¯s camp. However, he had yet to come up with the excuses.


    ¡°Because your second sister was threatened by Yin Xun. You didn¡¯t know about that, right? Your eldest sister even got someone to assault your second sister. If you don¡¯t believe me, look at this.¡± Gou Chang opened the photo album on his phone and found a photo for Yin Rui to see.


    This was Yin Mo¡¯s photo. In the photo, she was lying on the ground and being kicked by a woman. Yin Xun was standing beside her.


    Yin Rui knew who the woman was. That was Yin Xun¡¯s bodyguard.


    ¡°Why did my eldest sister attack my second sister?¡± Yin Rui had doubts in his heart, but he mostly believed it by now.


    First of all, the evidence was here to see. In addition, before he left home, Yin Xun said that as long as he breached the contract, she would sue him in court and even sign the contract. This was very likely true.


    Other than that, Yin Xun had beaten Yin Mo in the past and had always disliked her. This was no secret.


    Looking at the photo, Yin Rui¡¯s face was filled with anger.


    Seeing that Yin Rui believed it, Wang Bei snickered to himself. Yin Rui did not study much and his grades were at the bottom. He relied on his money to enter high school. Now, it fully proved how dangerous it was to be uncultured.


    This photo was photoshopped, but Yin Rui treated it as real and believed it without a doubt.


    ¡°We¡¯ve already explained everything. Your elder sister chased the legal heir out of the house. What other motive can she have?¡± Wang Bei sighed.


    Yin Rui did not expect things to develop to this extent. He thought that Yin Xun was just testing him, but he did not expect that he had been schemed against.


    Since Yin Xun had other motives, the contract¡­


    Just as he was about to look for the contract, he suddenly remembered that the contract was in Yin Xun¡¯s hands. He had not looked at it carefully at all. There might be conditions that were unfavorable to him in there.


    He was really worried now, but he still picked up his phone and found Yin Cheng¡¯s number to call.


    Regarding this, it was better for him to confirm it with his family. If he asked Yin Cheng personally, he would know what was going on.


    ¡°Beep, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable.¡± After the phone rang once, a cold robotic female voice was heard.


    When the others saw Yin Rui calling, they tried to stop him, but when they heard the voice on the phone, they were relieved.


    ¡°You¡¯ve been blocked. See, I told you that there¡¯s something wrong with your sister.¡± Wang Bei shrugged and handed his phone to Yin Rui. ¡°Try using my phone, but 1 advise you not to say anything silly. Otherwise, I don¡¯t know what will happen. Your sister is not an ordinary person. Even Si Fan fell into her schemes.¡±


    Yin Rui took the phone and called Yin Cheng. This time, the call went through this time and he picked up very quickly.


    Yin Rui felt aggrieved when he heard Yin Cheng¡¯s voice. He was about to say something, but Wang Bei stopped him with a look. He hung up the phone without saying a word.


    He had actually been blocked by his own father!


    ¡°What should I do? I only have you guys by my side now. You have to help me.¡± Yin Rui completely believed their words now.


    Wang Bei revealed a smug smile and said, ¡°You¡¯re the young master of the Yin family. You¡¯ve been living a luxurious life since you were young. We can¡¯t help you with money, but don¡¯t worry. We¡¯ll help you think of a solution. You just have to wait for our news. Your elder sister is evil. She won¡¯t even show any mercy to her own younger brother.¡±


    Gou Chang chimed in, ¡°That¡¯s right. Your eldest sister is infamous for being a tigress. She doesn¡¯t look like a woman at all. Your second sister is better. You should look for your second sister. Also, isn¡¯t Si Fan about to become your brother-in-law? He will definitely help you.¡±


    Seeing that his friends were so concerned about him, Yin Rui felt a warm feeling in his heart. Yin Xun had chased him out of the house because of these friends of his. Now, these people that Yin Xun looked down on were helping him wholeheartedly and accompanying him.


    Yin Rui felt a little proud. His judgment was not wrong. Yin Xun was undoubtedly very successful in her career, but she had made a mistake in judging people.


    At first, when he left the house, he briefly suspected his friends because of Yin Xun¡¯s reminder. He had not even thought of telling his friends that he had a lot of money with him.


    When he first contacted his friends after he came out, he only said that he had been chased out of the house and was penniless. In the end, his friends treated him to a meal without saying anything and even showed all kinds of concern. They did not seem to be here for his money at all..

 Chapter 513 - Chapter 513: Constant Monitoring

    Chapter 513: Constant Monitoring


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Rui had always known what kind of person he was. Other than money, he had nothing else.


    If these friends were not here for his money, they must be sincerely here to talk to him. He felt that his friends were very reliable, so he told them about his money. However, he did not say that the money was given by Yin Xun.


    Those people did not disappoint him. Even though they knew that he was rich, they did not ask him to treat them. Even today¡¯s food was bought by his friends.


    Although he had always emphasized that he had enough money, his friends refused to let him pay out of his own wallet. With all this, how could he continue to doubt their friendship?


    Yin Rui trusted his friends completely by now. He was surprised to find that they were more reliable than his sister. As the old saying goes, one had to rely on friends when going outside. This was indeed true.


    ¡°I want to use the money i have to do business, so i want to ask you to help me think of a plan. Don¡¯t you usually have access to these kinds of things? Then you can help me.¡± Yin Rui asked his good friends.


    Wang Bei and Gou Chang looked at each other and smiled. They immediately understood each other¡¯s thoughts.


    ¡°Yin Rui, we¡¯re close pals. There¡¯s no way we will ignore you if you¡¯re in trouble. How about this? 1 happen to know a person who¡¯s especially good at doing business. i¡¯ll help put a word in for you. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll definitely think of a good plan for you. But when your business ventures succeed in the future, don¡¯t forget your good brothers,¡± Wang Bei said with a smile.


    Yin Rui was the one who asked him to help. In that case, no matter what the outcome was, it would not be Wang Bei¡¯s problem.


    Gou Chang thought for a moment and said, ¡°Yin Rui, I have a friend who is an investor. Why don¡¯t you give it a try? As long as you find a reliable project to invest in, it can be very profitable.¡±


    Yin Rui shook his head. ¡°No, investing is too slow. i want to earn the most money in the shortest time possible.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll help you find out more when I get back. You can stay here and relax for the next few days,¡± Gou Chang said.


    Since there were people helping him, Yin Rui naturally was not as anxious anymore. Although he was chased out of the house by Yin Xun, at least he had his freedom and the help of his friends. He was happy and began to drink with his friends.


    They did not know that their every move had been recorded and sent to Yin Xun.


    At this moment, in Xintao¡¯s office, Yin Xun was listening to Mary¡¯s report.


    Mary claimed that the negotiations had failed and that Sha Gao rejected Xintao¡¯s request. They said that the pay was too low and hoped that Xintao would increase the amount.


    ¡°President Yin, I¡¯m sorry. I have disappointed you.¡± Mary felt that this problem was on her.


    Yin Xun comforted her. ¡°It¡¯s okay. This contract doesn¡¯t work in the first place.


    i just wanted you to have a reason to stall him.¡±


    ¡°Then what should i do now?¡± Mary knew her limits. As long as Yin Xun did not take the initiative to talk about business matters, she would definitely not ask.


    If this was something she should know about, Yin Xun would tell her herself.


    ¡°Come back for now. I have other missions for you.¡± As she spoke, Yin Xun¡¯s Xintao account rang. Someone had sent her a message.


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun opened Xintao¡¯s Friend interface. It was a photo sent by the paparazzo.


    In the photo, Yin Rui was having a meal with his friends. They seemed to be chatting happily.


    After sending the photo, the paparazzi sent her a text message to report Yin Rui¡¯s situation.


    The text read: Yin Rui has already told the person called Wang Bei about the money. He didn¡¯t know that Wang Bei secretly contacted someone else. I checked the phone number. It was from the President of Blue Fox, Si Fan. Wang Bei was reporting Yin Rui¡¯s situation to Si Fan. Other than targeting Yin Rui¡¯s money, they also tried to sow discord between you and Yin Rui. They said that you chased them away in order to monopolize the family assets. Yin Rui believed them.


    Looking at the message from the paparazzi, Yin Xun smiled. This paparazzi was reliable. Not only could he take such a clear photo, but he could even hear their words.


    She replied: Good. Keep monitoring him. Keep me posted if anything unusual happens.


    As expected, Si Fan was about to make a move after receiving the news. However, she was also surprised. She thought that with Si Fan¡¯s personality, he would definitely make a move as soon as he found out about Yin Rui¡¯s situation. She did not expect him to hold himself back. It seemed like he wanted to pave the way properly.


    Yin Rui was too innocent right now. He was easily deceived by others. There was no doubt about that. If he had been more vigilant, how could he have been tricked into taking drugs?


    Since Yin Rui was certain that these friends were reliable, he would go along with him. He was the type of person who would not turn back until he hit a hard wall. When he truly suffered a loss, he would finally understand..

 Chapter 514 - Chapter 514: A Familiar Scene

    Chapter 514: A Familiar Scene

    When she returned, she left Rhythm in Mary¡¯s hands.


    In the past, Mary was the acting person-in-charge. Now, she was fully in charge. After experiencing so much, Yin Xun believed in her strength.


    Keeping Mary as an assistant would not train her ability, and Yin Xun was really lacking a capable manager now. Mary was the best candidate.


    ¡°President Yin, I won¡¯t disappoint you!¡± Mary¡¯s eyes were red as she promised Yin Xun.


    Soon, it was time to get off work. Yin Xun left the company and planned to buy some fruits so that she could continue to freeload at Fang Yao¡¯s house. It was just time to get off work, and many employees were not out yet. They would usually leave a few minutes later.


    ¡°President Yin!¡± Yin Xun had just walked out of the door when a person suddenly dashed out from the side, scaring her.


    When she saw the other party¡¯s face clearly, Yin Xun said in surprise, ¡°Liu Cheng?¡±


    At this moment, Liu Cheng was holding a bouquet of flowers in his arms. Yin Xun immediately understood what he was here for.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I must have frightened you.¡± Liu Cheng scratched his head in embarrassment.


    Yin Xun frowned slightly and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°This is for you. Would you care for a cup of coffee with me?¡± Liu Cheng smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ve been waiting for you outside for a long time.¡±


    ¡°If you have something to say, say it here. I have something to do later and I¡¯m in a hurry,¡± Yin Xun said as she looked at her phone.


    Liu Cheng handed the flowers to Yin Xun. His face was slightly red as he said shyly, ¡°I¡¯ve liked you since a long time ago. I¡¯ve always wanted to ask you out, but I didn¡¯t have the chance. You¡¯re an outstanding person. I feel that if 1 don¡¯t take action soon, I¡¯ll lose you. So¡­¡±


    Liu Cheng straightened his expression and looked at Yin Xun expectantly.


    ¡°Would you be my girlfriend?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Liu Cheng and then looked up at her surroundings. Why was this scene so familiar? It was exactly the same as Xing Cheng back then.


    Looking at Liu Cheng, she seemed to see Xing Cheng¡¯s shadow on him. Yin Xun felt a chill in her heart.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mr. Liu. I can¡¯t, so please go back.¡± Yin Xun rejected him with a smile and left.


    Liu Cheng did not chase after her. He stood on the spot and looked at Yin Xun¡¯s back with a gloomy gaze. He only turned around and left when Yin Xun¡¯s figure disappeared.


    Soon, Yin Xun drove out of the parking lot, followed by a black car by the roadside.


    After Yin Xun left the company, she passed by a fruit shop and went down to buy some fruits. Then, she hurried over to Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    Previously, she felt embarrassed about freeloading, but now, she no longer had such thoughts. Anyway, she just needed to bring some gifts for Fang Yao.


    When she arrived at Fang Yao¡¯s house, she was surprised to see Qu Lu there as well.


    Her eyes were red and bloodshot, as though she had been wronged. She stood alone in the living room of the villa.


    Yin Xun stood at the door with fruits in her hands, unsure if she should go in.


    The butler saw her and greeted her warmly. ¡°Miss Yin, why are you standing at the door? Why aren¡¯t you coming in?¡±


    Qu Lu turned around and their gazes met. Yin Xun could clearly sense the killing intent in Qu Lu¡¯s eyes. Yin Xun revealed a harmless smile.


    Qu Lu snorted and turned his head away.


    The butler laughed as he took Yin Xun¡¯s fruits and asked Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, 1 learned a new skill yesterday. I made some fruit pie. Do you want to try it?¡±


    ¡°I do. Since you¡¯ve just learned this, I¡¯ll be sure to give it a taste,¡± Yin Xun said expectantly.


    ¡°Is there anything else you¡¯d like to eat, then?¡± the butler asked.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, ¡°I like fruit shaved ice!¡±


    It was the summer season now, and it was very hot. It was a good time to eat sour, sweet, and cold food.


    ¡°Alright, alright. I¡¯ll make some for you now,¡± the butler said happily. He then turned to Qu Lu and asked, ¡°Miss Qu Lu, do you want to eat something?¡±


    Qu Lu glanced in the direction of the second floor and shook her head. With a choked voice, she said, ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler. I won¡¯t be eating. I¡¯ve already finished my business. I¡¯ll be leaving.¡±


    ¡°Take care then.¡± The butler smiled and asked the servant to send Qu Lu off. He carried the fruits and went straight to the kitchen.


    As soon as Qu Lu left, Fang Yao came down from upstairs. He said to Yin Xun, ¡°Qu Lu came over to deliver the money just now. The fee for booking the entire venue.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°You¡¯re quite strict with your word.¡±


    ¡°I thought you were going to say that she doesn¡¯t need to pay for this and that you would.¡± Fang Yao smiled at Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun shrugged. ¡°She was the one who wanted to be a sucker. It¡¯s always good when someone save me money. I had no choice but to accept it.¡±


    After saying that, she seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, ¡°Well, I¡¯m just talking about her. I don¡¯t mean anything else!¡±


    She had actually thought the same of Fang Yao.


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    He felt that he had been insulted indirectly. It would have been better if she had not explained all that. With Yin Xun¡¯s explanation, it was as if she was saying that he was also a sucker..

    While they were talking, the butler brought over a plate of fruit slices. ¡°Have some fruits. I¡¯ll bring the food over to you when it is ready.¡±


    ¡°Alright, thank you, Uncle Butler!¡± Yin Xun smiled and thanked him.


    After the butler left, Fang Yao suddenly said seriously, ¡°Now is the time for Blue Fox to clean up its employees, so you just need to prevent Si Fan from taking this opportunity to plant spies in Xintao. They¡¯re moving very quickly. I heard that their decision-making department has already undergone a big cleansing. Blue Fox will be on the right track soon. When Blue Fox settles down, they will be able to counterattack.¡±


    ¡°I guessed it too. I just rejected an employee from Blue Fox today.¡± Yin Xun told Fang Yao about Zhu Chuan bringing the confidential documents over. After she finished, she said, ¡°This should be just the beginning. Someone else will come later. Perhaps it¡¯s as you said; that person will come.¡±


    Fang Yao asked in a deep voice, ¡°Then how do you plan to resolve this?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m just improvising. No matter how much Si Fan struggles now, there¡¯s a limit to what he can do. The most important thing now is to keep an eye on the new leaders of Blue Fox. 1 heard that they¡¯re starting to talk about cooperation with some old brands.¡±


    ¡°The information I¡¯ve received is that Blue Fox is currently discussing their website¡¯s activities internally. It seems like they want to copy Xintao¡¯s successful approach,¡± Fang Yao said.


    ¡°Copy?¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Xintao¡¯s success is not something they can easily copy. Oh right, you actually know the internal information of Blue Fox. It seems like Si Fan did not guard against you. Since you have spies, can you keep track of the president¡¯s every move?¡±


    Yin Xun immediately guessed that Fang Yao had also planted spies in Blue Fox. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to know such confidential matters.


    Thinking of the domineering CEOs in novels who knew everything, Yin Xun asked this question expectantly.


    ¡°¡­What are you thinking? I don¡¯t have superpowers,¡± Fang Yao said helplessly. ¡°It¡¯s easy to find out through the news. It¡¯s nothing more than a matter of spending money. Whether it¡¯s ordinary employees or leaders, their ultimate goal is just to earn money. As for the president¡¯s every move, which employee will pay attention to such detailed matters?¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­ Alright.¡±


    To think that she was so excited just now. She thought that she would be able to witness the true strength of a domineering CEO like in the novels. Did they not have spies everywhere and know every little detail? She thought that Fang Yao was like that and hoped to learn from him. She was surprised that Fang Yao did something as ordinary as spending money to buy information.


    ¡°If Blue Fox starts spending money, do you still plan to match them in doing it?¡± Fang Yao asked Yin Xun calmly.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It depends on the situation. Although Blue Fox is nothing to be afraid of, it¡¯s a bad idea to underestimate the enemy in business. 1¡¯11 observe them first.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded in agreement. ¡°That¡¯s right. Si Fan fell to this state because he underestimated his enemy and was too arrogant. Do you still need funds? If you lack money, let me know at any time.¡±


    ¡°No need, no need. There¡¯s so much liquidity now that we have enough for another Xintao project. You and Qu Lin have the majority, and Liu Ying also helped me pull in a lot of investments from rich second-generation heirs. 1 won¡¯t ask you for more money for the time being.¡± Yin Xun refused repeatedly.


    The butler was done very quickly. After the two of them finished discussing things, the butler also prepared some snacks and carried them over for Yin Xun. They were all made from the fruits Yin Xun had just brought. The desserts were so exquisite that they looked like they were sold in a cake shop outside.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, you have magical hands.¡± Yin Xun picked up a piece of apple pie without hesitation. It smelled very fragrant.


    The butler chuckled and said, ¡°If you like it, come over more often. I still have a lot of culinary skills to show off. You shouldn¡¯t underestimate my cooking skills, but I¡¯m actually strongest at making snacks and desserts.¡±


    Fang Yao looked at the butler resentfully and said, ¡°Why didn¡¯t 1 ever hear of this?¡±


    ¡°Hehe¡­¡± The butler did not answer and smiled perfunctorily.


    Outside the villa, Qu Lu did not leave yet. Instead, she stood near Fang Yao¡¯s house and observed the situation.


    After staring for a long time, Yin Xun still did not come out of Fang Yao¡¯s house. Qu Lu¡¯s face was gloomy, and she gritted her teeth.


    Ever since Lin Chan had that talk with Yin Xun, she had stopped keeping an eye on Yin Xun. Lin Chan had assured her that Yin Xun would not have any ill intentions toward Fang Yao. Even if she did, Lin Chan had a way to make Yin Xun leave Fang Yao.


    When Qu Lu heard Lin Chan¡¯s words, she truly believed them. She originally wanted to come over and take a look, but was always disturbed by Qu Lin.


    This time, she took advantage of the fact that Qu Lin was busy and came to see Fang Yao under the guise of passing him money. In the end, Fang Yao only took the money and did not bother talking to her. She did not want Yin Xun to see her as a laughing stock, so she had to leave first..

 Chapter 516 - Chapter 516: Cooperation

    Chapter 516: Cooperation


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Actually, she did not plan to leave. She just wanted to see when Yin Xun would come out.


    After waiting for so long, Yin Xun still had not come out. Qu Lu did not know what Yin Xun and Fang Yao were talking about. Logically speaking, Lin Chan had warned Yin Xun before that if Yin Xun dared to have ill intentions toward Fang Yao, she would not let her off easy.


    However, it seemed that Yin Xun did not heed this threat. She needed to tell Lin Chan about it.


    While she was lost in her thoughts, a voice suddenly came from behind. ¡°Do you know someone from this family?¡±


    Qu Lu turned around when she heard the voice. Someone had appeared behind her without her realizing.


    ¡°Who are you?¡± Qu Lu asked.


    ¡°My name is Liu Cheng. 1 saw you hiding here and staring after coming out of this house. Do you know Yin Xun?¡± Liu Cheng stared at her for a long time before coming over to greet her.


    ¡°Liu Cheng? I¡¯ve never heard of you. What does it have to do with you whether 1 know this family or not?¡± Qu Lu looked at Liu Cheng warily.


    Liu Cheng smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous. I¡¯m not a bad person. The woman who just entered is called Yin Xun. She¡¯s the girl I¡¯m pursuing. 1 assume you know her. 1 saw the two of you talking at the door. And you¡¯ve been watching the house since you came out. If I¡¯m not mistaken, do you like that man who¡¯s very close to Yin Xun?¡±


    ¡°You fancy Yin Xun?¡± Qu Lu let down her guard. ¡°If you like her, why don¡¯t you chase after her? The person living here is my fiance. Because of Yin Xun¡¯s appearance, he has started to ignore me.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m pursuing her, that¡¯s why I¡¯m here. Since you know that man and I want to win over Yin Xun, why don¡¯t we cooperate?¡± Liu Cheng looked at Fang Yao¡¯s villa and asked.


    Qu Lu raised her eyebrows. ¡°Are you stalking her?¡±


    ¡°How would I know how she¡¯s doing or what she likes if 1 don¡¯t follow her? Besides, I don¡¯t have any ill intentions. I just like her,¡± Liu Cheng said indifferently.


    Qu Lu stared at him for a while and suddenly laughed. ¡°You¡¯re quite honest. You actually dare to admit that you¡¯re stalking someone. Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll rat you out? But to be honest, this is not a bad idea. But we¡¯ve just met for the first time. You don¡¯t even know my identity, yet you don¡¯t mind teaming up with me?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine as long as we have the same goal. It doesn¡¯t matter if we¡¯re familiar with each other or not. We¡¯ll each take what we need. Perhaps our cooperation will be more enjoyable that way.¡±


    Hearing Liu Cheng¡¯s words, Qu Lu nodded. He was right, but¡­


    Liu Cheng added, ¡°I¡¯ve been following Yin Xun for a while and realized that she¡¯s very close to that man. The two of them seem to be unusually close. Since he¡¯s your fiance, you surely don¡¯t want to see him and Yin Xun together, that¡¯s why I suggested that we work together. Help me win over Yin Xun. If I succeed, you¡¯ll have one less problem. How does that sound?¡±


    Liu Cheng offered his hand to Qu Lu.


    Qu Lu lowered her head at the sight. She had no intention of shaking hands.


    She leaned against the wall and thought for a moment before saying, ¡°Give me your contact information. If I want to cooperate with you, I¡¯ll contact you.¡± With that, she reached out her hand. ¡°Give me your business card.¡±


    Although Liu Cheng¡¯s actions were quite sleazy, he was dressed smartly. One look and you could tell that he was not an ordinary person.


    Liu Cheng took out a business card and handed it to Qu Lu. Just as Qu Lu took it, she saw a figure flash past the edge of the wall from the corner of his eye. She focused her gaze but saw nothing. Perhaps her eyes were playing tricks on her, so she ignored it.


    After receiving the business card, Qu Lu checked the time and bid farewell to Liu Cheng before leaving.


    They were right next to Fang Yao¡¯s house. It would be awkward if Fang Yao suddenly came out and saw her standing with another man.


    As for the cooperation, she would contact this Liu Cheng if she needed it in the future.


    Before she left, she took another deep look at Fang Yao¡¯s house. She did not know how long Yin Xun and Fang Yao would stay together. It was getting late. If she went back any later, she would be questioned by Qu Lin again.


    After Qu Lu left, Liu Cheng also turned around and left.


    He had followed Yin Xun for a few days and found out that Yin Xun would have meals at Fang Yao¡¯s house every day. After eating, she would stay for a long time before returning home. Therefore, Liu Cheng knew that if continued to dally, he might have to wait for a long time.


    ¡°Liu Cheng!¡± Liu Cheng turned around and was about to leave when a person suddenly rushed out from the corner beside him and shouted his name, startling him.


    After seeing who had appeared, Liu Cheng took a deep breath and frowned. ¡°Lil Ying, where did you come from!¡±


    ¡°That doesn¡¯t matter. Let me ask you one thing. How long have you been following Yin Xun?¡± Liu Ying put her hands on her hips and questioned Liu Cheng unhappily.


    ¡°What are you talking about? I¡¯m not following her.¡± Liu Cheng frowned and turned to leave..

 Chapter 517 - Chapter 517: Arranged Marriage

    Chapter 517: Arranged Marriage


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Hey, don¡¯t leave!¡± Liu Ying chased after Liu Cheng and stopped him to warn him. ¡°Brother, stalking someone is illegal. Be careful not to get yourself in trouble. I know you like her, which makes sense since she is so special. You can chase her openly. But why are you stalking her? You¡¯re acting like a pervert. I feel embarrassed on your behalf.¡±


    Liu Cheng gently pushed Liu Ying away and said impatiently, ¡°I¡¯m your brother, so why didn¡¯t you help me? If you can help me woo her, then I won¡¯t have to stalk her anymore.¡±


    Liu Ying stared at Liu Cheng warily. ¡°Look, you¡¯ve already admitted it. You¡¯re indeed stalking her. No, 1 have to tell her to be more careful in the future.¡±


    Liu Cheng:¡±¡­¡± Which sister would side with an outside instead of her own brother?


    Seeing Liu Ying running into the villa, Liu Cheng quickly stopped her. ¡°Stop right there. Don¡¯t be a busybody. I¡¯m your brother. It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t help me, but why are you helping outsiders?¡±


    Liu Ying wanted to shake off Liu Cheng¡¯s hand, but Liu Cheng was too strong for her. ¡°Yin Xun is not an outsider. She¡¯s my good friend. Ugh, you¡¯re hurting me. Let go, let go!¡±


    ¡°I can let you go, but I saw that you were running to this house without hesitation just now. Looks like you know the owner. Tell me who this owner is and his name.¡± No matter how Liu Ying struggled, Liu Cheng refused to let go. ¡°If you don¡¯t tell me, I¡¯ll ask Dad and Mom to find a random partner for you to marry.¡±


    ¡°Do you think we¡¯re still in the old era? Do you still want your parents to arrange a marriage? These days, even dogs can choose their own partners. Do you still want to threaten me with this? Dream on!¡±


    Liu Cheng frowned and said, ¡°We¡¯re not in the old society now, but you also don¡¯t have the right to refuse. If you don¡¯t agree, I¡¯ll get Dad and Mom to stop your pocket money. Let¡¯s see how you live in the future.¡±


    Hearing Liu Cheng mention her pocket money, Liu Ying was amused. She stopped struggling and said indifferently, ¡°Brother, don¡¯t you know? Dad and Mom have already stopped giving me pocket money. Don¡¯t threaten me with money again. I¡¯m not afraid at all.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ve been pampered since you were young and don¡¯t have the ability to work. How can you live without pocket money?¡± Liu Cheng said in surprise, ¡°No wonder you¡¯ve been protecting Yin Xun. Are you relying on her for money?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t look down on me.¡± Liu Ying was speechless. ¡°Do you think I¡¯m like you? 1 don¡¯t only rely on my parents¡¯ protection. I¡¯m a shareholder of Xintao now. As soon as Xintao went online, they suppressed Blue Fox in no time. With their high popularity, the benefits will be considerable. Do you think I still care about the little pocket money you gave me? I can earn my own money!¡±


    ¡°Where did you get the money to invest?¡± Liu Cheng¡¯s eyes darkened.


    Liu Ying immediately felt guilty. That was the money she had earned from selling her house, car, and a bunch of luxury goods.


    However, she did not want Liu Cheng to see her expression. She straightened her neck and said, ¡°It has nothing to do with you. You can¡¯t control me!¡±


    ¡°It has nothing to do with me?¡± Liu Cheng frowned. ¡°Dad and 1 are going to invest in Blue Fox. Aren¡¯t you going against us by investing in Xintao now? Sure enough, the moment we take our eyes off you, something like this happens. You don¡¯t know how to do business at all. You made random decisions without discussing them with us. Have you forgotten who you sent to prison back then?¡±


    Liu Ying said, ¡°I was in the wrong back then, so I deserve to be imprisoned. It has nothing to do with Yin Xun. Moreover, we¡¯ve already let bygones be bygones. Not only am 1 her investor, but we¡¯re also good friends. On the other hand, didn¡¯t you say that you like Yin Xun and want to pursue her? Then why didn¡¯t you invest in Xintao? Instead, you invested in Blue Fox, who¡¯s her rival.¡±


    ¡°Relationships are relationships. Business is business. You don¡¯t understand¡­¡± Liu Cheng was getting more and more impatient. ¡°Xintao was able to win against Blue Fox because of pure luck. With Blue Fox¡¯s deep-rooted strength, it¡¯s only a matter of time before they overtake Xintao. Besides, Yin Xun is a woman. No matter how good she is at doing business, she won¡¯t be able to do as well. If we invest in her, we will lose in the end.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t look down on women. Just wait, you¡¯ll be defeated by this ¡®weak¡¯ woman in the future.¡± Liu Ying clenched her free hand into a fist and waved it at Liu Cheng. ¡°By the way, since you look down on Yin Xun, why are you rushing to work with her on the materials for Donggang City?¡±


    Liu Cheng said, ¡°The project at Donggang City is with Yin Cheng. Yin Corporation is the leader in the construction industry. How can it be the same as Xintao? Besides, if it weren¡¯t for you back then, Dad and 1 wouldn¡¯t have embarrassed ourselves in front of Yin Xun..¡±

    She was indeed the one who broke into Donggang Modern City. Thinking of this, Liu Ying¡¯s face turned red. She did not expect that after talking for so long, her dark history would be brought up again.


    ¡°I won¡¯t talk to you about these useless things anymore. Hurry up and withdraw your investment. If you don¡¯t do it, you¡¯ll make Dad look bad. As long as you withdraw, I¡¯ll pretend that none of this happened. You know Dad¡¯s temper. If he finds out that you secretly invested in Xintao, you won¡¯t have a good time.¡± Liu Cheng sighed helplessly.


    In fact, the reason why Liu Yi chose Blue Fox was not only because he was optimistic about Blue Fox¡¯s development, but it was also because of Donggang Modern City.


    They found a professional to conduct some market research and analysis. The result was that if Xintao went bankrupt, the Yin Corporation would be implicated.


    Both parties already had a collaboration project. If another one came, it would be too risky.


    As for investment, it was to minimize the risk on the basis of earning money.


    Liu Ying had invested all her money in their opposing faction. Was this not helping the enemy become stronger?


    There was another reason. Xintao was indeed at its peak right now. If Liu Ying learned more about the business world, he would be in danger¡­


    Seeing Liu Ying¡¯s expression that said ¡®That¡¯s just how I am¡¯, Liu Cheng completely lost his patience. ¡°Are you going to retreat or not?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not doing it. Don¡¯t even think about controlling my life anymore,¡± Liu Ying said firmly.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t Dad and Mom treat you well enough? They prioritized you in every aspect, yet you¡¯re still going against them!¡± Liu Cheng¡¯s face was horrifyingly dark.


    Liu Ying snorted. ¡°You guys used to call me stupid, but you¡¯re actually the stupid ones. You¡¯re actually asking me to withdraw my investment when Xintao is making the most money. Sigh, that¡¯s not right¡­¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s gaze suddenly became sharp. She looked at Liu Cheng and said in a low voice, ¡°You¡¯re worried that I¡¯ll become stronger than you and leave a good impression of my parents, right? That¡¯s why you want me to withdraw my investment.¡±


    Liu Cheng did not expect Liu Ying to suddenly become so sharp that she could see through his thoughts. For a moment, he did not know how to respond.


    Seeing that he was silent, Liu Ying continued, ¡°You¡¯re worried that I¡¯ll take the family assets from you because you¡¯re not capable enough. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll prove my ability to Dad and Mom. I¡¯ll have a place in the company.¡±


    This was a blatant declaration of war with Liu Cheng. Liu Ying had the confidence now. She believed that following Yin Xun was the right decision.


    ¡°I can turn a blind eye to what you did as long as you agree to help me woo Yin Xun.¡± Liu Cheng took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart. His sister was always so rebellious. It was infuriating.


    ¡°I can help you if you agree to let me manage the company,¡± Liu Ying said with a sneer.


    Liu Cheng¡¯s expression immediately darkened. ¡°Lil Ying, stop fooling around. Why would a girl like you manage the company?¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s expression darkened. For a moment, she did not know whether Liu Cheng was actually afraid that she would snatch the assets or if he genuinely felt that she could not manage the company because she was a girl.


    No matter what it was, it was clear that Liu Cheng did not take her seriously.


    ¡°Dream on. Don¡¯t worry, Yin Xun will never get together with someone like you because you¡¯re not worthy. She deserves someone better. At least, she¡¯s not someone like you who confesses their love to someone but secretly opposes her interests.¡± Liu Ying spat in an attempt to deliberately anger Liu Cheng.


    ¡°Girl, you¡¯re getting out of line. We should have known that you would run amok once you¡¯re outside, ome home with me,¡± Liu Cheng said and was about to pull Liu Ying away.


    ¡°Brother, I advise you to let go of me now. Or you will regret it.¡± Liu Ying did not resist this time. Instead, she followed him obediently.


    Liu Cheng was slightly stunned. He did not understand what Liu Ying meant. ¡°What do you mean¡±


    Liu Ying smiled and suddenly opened her mouth to shout, ¡°Help! Human traffickers are catching people!¡±


    Liu Cheng,¡±¡­¡±


    Human trafficker? Liu Ying actually called him a human trafficker! This could not be his sister. This Liu Ying must have been possessed by someone!


    With Liu Ying¡¯s shout, the surrounding people immediately looked over. Her voice was very loud and she was beside Fang Yao¡¯s villa, so even Yin Xun and Fang Yao, who were eating, heard her.


    ¡°Why does this voice sound familiar?¡± Yin Xun said, ¡°Let¡¯s go out and take a look.¡±


    She went out with Fang Yao and saw Liu Ying standing not far away. At this moment, there was a man beside her who was being led away by the security guards. That person looked familiar too. Yin Xun took a closer look at Liu Liang and said in surprise, ¡°Isn¡¯t that Liu Cheng?¡±


    Fang Yao recognized him as well. He stared at Liu Cheng¡¯s back thoughtfully..

    When Liu Ying saw Yin Xun and Fang Yao coming out, she was not surprised at all. She even smiled and greeted Yin Xun. ¡°Yin Xun, you¡¯re finally out. 1 have something to tell you.¡±


    Yin Xun immediately understood what Liu Ying meant. Coincidentally, they had just finished eating. She said to Fang Yao, ¡°Looks like I won¡¯t be able to train today. I¡¯ll go back first.¡±


    ¡°Wait.¡± Fang Yao stopped Yin Xun. ¡°You still haven¡¯t taken something.¡±


    ¡°What?¡± Yin Xun looked at her body. She did not take anything when she visited. How could she have left something behind?


    In a moment, she found out what Fang Yao meant.


    The butler ran out with a box and handed it to Yin Xun. ¡°These are the leftover snacks. Take them back with you and enjoy them slowly. They won¡¯t spoil after a night.¡±


    ¡°Alright, thank you, Uncle Butler!¡± Yin Xun smiled and took it.


    Before she left, Fang Yao reminded her, ¡°If you don¡¯t have enough funds, you can tell me anytime.¡±


    ¡°Alright, don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t be reserved.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said.


    Seeing that Liu Ying was staring at her and Fang Yao with a curious expression, Yin Xun grabbed Liu Ying¡¯s hand and dragged her away.


    On the way, Liu Ying told Yin Xun everything about Liu Cheng following her, including his opposition to her investment in Xintao. Liu Ying was fidgeting as she spoke, and Yin Xun could tell how upset she was about this.


    After returning home, Yin Xun took out the snacks that she had kept for a long time and placed them on the table to comfort Liu Ying.


    Liu Ying casually picked up a bag of potato chips and imagined they were Liu Cheng¡¯s. She tore it open forcefully and said hatefully, ¡°What can my brother even do? It¡¯s all thanks to my father. Oh right.¡± Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun as she crunched the potato chips and asked, ¡°Aren¡¯t you angry that my brother stalked you?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and shook her head. ¡°1 already knew about this. He¡¯s been following me for a few days. I saw it all.¡±


    Liu Ying did not know how to continue. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you stop him? My brother is a timid person and is weak to threats. Look, 1 just scared him into retreating just now.¡±


    ¡°He didn¡¯t really have any ill intentions and didn¡¯t harm me, so I let him follow me. Also, is he really as timid as you say? I didn¡¯t get the impression that he was scared away by you; it looked like he was dragged away by the security guards,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly.


    ¡°Hehe, that¡¯s about right.¡± Liu Ying continued to ridicule Liu Cheng for a while before getting to the point. ¡°1 got another sum of money. Do you want me to invest in Xintao or Rhythm this time? You did amazingly last time. You directly suppressed Blue Fox. Now, I have complete faith in your strength. I¡¯ll invest in whichever you want me to.¡±


    Yin Xun was surprised. ¡°Where did you get the money? Aren¡¯t you jobless now?¡±


    Liu Ying smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s a secret. Anyway, I just got this money. I want to invest more. Seeing that your business is so good, 1 should invest more. When the year-end dividend comes, I¡¯ll be rich.¡±


    ¡°Keep the money for yourself. We have enough.¡± Yin Xun quickly refused. Now that people saw that Xintao was popular, everyone was taking the initiative to invest.


    Most importantly, the profits from Xintao were already enough for her to do other ventures. There was no need for her to accept any more investments.


    After being rejected by Yin Xun, Liu Ying said bitterly, ¡°Are you afraid that my money is not clean? Don¡¯t worry. Although I can¡¯t say how I got it, I can guarantee that the money is clean. It¡¯s definitely not illegal.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not a matter of money. It¡¯s just that our funds are already sufficient. Also¡­¡± Yin Xun said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you just say that your father and brother are going to invest in Blue Fox? Before this, there would be no issue with you investing in Rhythm. Back then, they had yet to make a move, but it¡¯s different now. Your brother has already given you a warning. If you invest in me again, what if they think that you¡¯re deliberately going against them? Just keep the money for yourself and don¡¯t invest.¡±


    ¡°I want to go against them. Don¡¯t they always think that I can¡¯t do anything and look down on me? Then I¡¯ll prove to them that my choice is right!¡± Liu Ying thought of how she was threatened by Liu Cheng just now and was furious. ¡°I¡¯ll invest. This money is still not enough. I¡¯ll get more in the future. I¡¯ll infuriate them to death!¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    She could tell how much Liu Ying blamed her family. When she heard Liu Ying talk about Liu Cheng just now, Yin Xun was a little worried.


    Although Liu Ying had her freedome now, she was still a member of the Liu family. If her parents really wanted to do something, an outsider like Yun Xun had no right to persuade them.. What if something happened to Liu Ying?

 Chapter 520 - Chapter 520: Ill Protect You

    Chapter 520: I¡¯ll Protect You


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Last time, because of the construction materials of Donggang Modern City, the two families did not have a good time. Liu Yi probably disliked her even more now. She was trying to help Liu Ying, but why did it feel like she had triggered Liu Ying¡¯s rebellious heart?


    Yin Xun understood that Liu Ying wanted to break away from relying on the Liu family. Although investing was one of the methods, it was still a temporary solution.


    Liu Ying¡¯s family thought that she did not have the ability to manage the company, so they did not even let her participate in corporate matters. Perhaps it was partly because of the construction materials incident last time, but ultimately, they focused on nurturing their son because Liu Ying was a girl.


    If she wanted to prove himself to them, she had to really show off some super management ability.


    Seeing that Yin Xun did not speak, Liu Ying immediately said dejectedly, ¡°Since you don¡¯t accept investments, can 1 at least work in your company? 1 know I¡¯m not capable enough now, so 1 don¡¯t want a high position. 1¡¯11 start from the bottom. Just treat me as one of those college students who came for an interview.¡±


    ¡°College students are all very capable these days¡­¡± Yin Xun could not help but complain.


    Liu Ying was a little depressed. ¡°As expected, even you think that I¡¯m not capable enough. You don¡¯t want me to work at your company, right?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s not what I meant. i think that you¡¯re actually very capable. But you¡¯re too impatient and can¡¯t hide things. Indeed, you¡¯re still a little too innocent. You easily believe what others say and¡­¡±


    ¡°If you¡¯re dissatisfied with me, just say it. There¡¯s no need to beat around the bush. i can take it.¡± Liu Ying interrupted Yin Xun. If Yin Xun said any more, she might reveal more and more of her flaws.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Be more confident. You¡¯re not that bad. Where did the courage you had when you declared war on me go? Take that courage out. Your capabilities will definitely rise to the next level.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s all in the past. Don¡¯t bring it up. 1 was young and insensible, treating scraps as treasures. Now that 1 think about it, there are so many good men. Why did 1 do such a stupid thing for Si Fan? Fortunately, you forgave me. Otherwise, I might not have been enlightened now.¡± Liu Ying¡¯s face was red. She felt embarrassed whenever she recalled what she had done in the past.


    ¡°It¡¯s good to correct your mistakes, but you can keep your confidence. i think it¡¯s too slow to grow from the bottom. If you¡¯re willing, 1 can let you start as an assistant in management and learn from them. When you feel that you¡¯re up for it, I¡¯ll let you take the lead. When you¡¯re done training, you can even start your own company.¡± Yin Xun thought that Mary needed an assistant now. She could let Liu Ying go over.


    Actually, apart from helping Liu Ying, she also had her own selfish motives for doing this.


    Rhythm Video had a large part of its shares with Liu Ying. The final turnover was linked to her efforts, so Liu Ying would definitely work harder than usual.


    If Liu Ying went all out, not only would it be helpful to her own abilities, but it would also be good for Rhythm.


    However, she would not tell Liu Ying these thoughts.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was being so considerate, Liu Ying said excitedly, ¡°For real?! You¡¯re willing to help me!¡± In her excitement, it took a while for her to process what Yin Xun had just said.


    ¡°You want me to start my own company?¡± Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun in disbelief. ¡°But I might not be able to do that.¡±


    ¡°Why not? Don¡¯t forget that you helped me get a portion of my investments, so it¡¯s not difficult for you to prepare the funds. Besides,¡± Yin Xun added encouragingly, ¡°starting your company will only be after you¡¯ve finished training in our company. Didn¡¯t you say that you wanted to beat your brother? Then you should be confident in your ability.¡±


    ¡°But starting a company is not the same as working. There are too many things 1 need to pay attention to. I¡¯m afraid 1 can¡¯t pull it off. What if I fail and lose money?¡± Liu Ying was a little hesitant.


    Although they had not started yet, just thinking about it made her nervous.


    Yin Xun said nonchalantly, ¡°So be it. Even if you lose money, at most, you¡¯ll lose your capital. As long as you¡¯re careful, you won¡¯t lose too much. If you¡¯re worried about embarrassing yourself at home, then don¡¯t go home. Come to me. I¡¯ll continue to give you a position. Anyway, i won¡¯t leave you without a place to stay.¡±


    ¡°Yin Xun¡­¡± Liu Ying was so touched that she called out to her. Then, she pounced on Yin Xun and hugged her. She kissed her on the face and thanked her. ¡°You¡¯re so good to me. Thinking back, I was really a good-for-nothing in the past. i was always trying to pick on you. Don¡¯t worry, i¡¯ll protect you from now on.. Whoever dares to bully you will have to go through me!¡±

 Chapter 521 - Chapter 521: Getting Experience

    Chapter 521: Getting Experience


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun pushed Liu Ying away and said, ¡°How is it? With me as your backing, are you still worried?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not worried at all. If I fail in the end, i¡¯ll stay at home and live off my family until I¡¯m old. Anyway, I¡¯m thick-skinned. As long as I don¡¯t feel embarrassed, I can stay at home. My parents definitely won¡¯t chase me out. Even if my brother isn¡¯t happy and thinks that I¡¯m spending his money, I¡¯m not worried. Who asked him to look down on me? Then I¡¯ll do as they wish and become a useless leach who doesn¡¯t do anything and spends their money. It¡¯s not like they won¡¯t support me. I¡¯ll annoy him to death.¡± Liu Ying stuffed the potato chips in her mouth and bit hard.


    In any case, her parents wanted to give all the family assets to Liu Cheng in the end. She would get nothing. At most, she would just give up on the assets. She would continue to pester Liu Cheng in the future. There was no way she would find a rich man to marry.


    Back then, she had misjudged Si Fan. Who knew that such a swift and decisive person was actually a cowardly man who committed domestic violence? Who knew what kind of person her future marriage partner might be? If she refused to get married, could Liu Cheng possibly try to kill her, his biological sister?


    Hmph, this was the price of their favoritism.


    Yin Xun nodded in agreement. It was a very good idea. Then, she continued to ask, ¡°Then what kind of company do you want to start? I¡¯ll only know how to help you if you set the direction.¡±


    Liu Ying was stunned by Yin Xun¡¯s question. Indeed, she still did not know what she could do. Thinking about it carefully, she did not have any strengths.


    Liu Ying said blankly, ¡°I¡¯ve never thought about this. I don¡¯t know what I¡¯m good at either. Ever since I was young, my parents never expected me to share their burden. They didn¡¯t have any expectations for me and always let me play around, so I don¡¯t have any experience.¡±


    After thinking for a moment, Yin Xun said, ¡°Since you¡¯re still not clear about what you want to do, go to my company first and think about it slowly. You can start when you¡¯re sure and feel that you¡¯re capable. Opening a company is not a game. You must choose a direction that you¡¯re interested in. After all, interest leads to motivation.¡±


    ¡°If I start a company, will you help me?¡± Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun expectantly.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Of course. Not only will I help you, but I will also invest in your company using my own name. When the time comes, I will do my best to help you.¡±


    Liu Ying had helped her pull in so many investments, and now Liu Ying was cut off from her family. The Liu family would not help her, so she definitely had no money for this.


    As for Liu Ying¡¯s friends, they had all been plundered and given what they had to her. They would not have any extra money to invest.


    Since that was the case, the funding would depend on Yin Xun.


    ¡°By the way, there¡¯s something you have to remember. The most important thing in business is not only your own strength but also your ability to judge people.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Yin Xun was going to teach her how to do business. Liu Ying immediately put down her snacks and sat up straight. She began to listen to Yin Xun seriously.


    Yin Xun explained her experiences. ¡°You want to start a company, not start a new business from scratch. If you want to start a company, you just have to choose the direction and prepare the funds. Next, you have to recruit employees. You need the ability to read people and let the employees do things for you. You just have to control the general direction. This is what a leader should do.


    ¡°As for how to make use of employees, that¡¯s a different subject. Mary is very experienced in this area. It will help you if you become her assistant and learn from her. Mary was my assistant back then. The employees she recruited are capable people who have good personalities. Learning from her is a perfect opportunity.¡±


    Liu Ying immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. She looked at Yin Xun gratefully and said, ¡°So that¡¯s why you asked me to go to your company to train. You¡¯ve thought of everything.¡±


    ¡°You can¡¯t rush things like starting a company. While you¡¯re training, first determine the direction of the company, then do market research. Pull in some investments and get done a series of other preparations. You can eventually start when you¡¯re ready,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°How does that sound? If you¡¯re free, come to the company starting tomorrow. Make the best use of your time.¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Liu Ying agreed happily.


    Yin Xun¡¯s suggestion was like a stimulant that made Liu Ying excited.


    Although she had yet to do anything, she had a feeling that she would succeed soon..

 Chapter 522 - Chapter 522: Be Careful Of Liu Cheng

    Chapter 522: Be Careful Of Liu Cheng


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Perhaps, after she succeeded and her parents saw that she was capable, they would hand management of the company to her.


    If that were to happen, Liu Cheng, who had always looked down on her, would surely show a very interesting expression.


    Liu Ying was looking forward to that day, but she also knew that she had to study hard.


    Thinking of this, Liu Ying could not help but laugh.


    Yin Xun had told her a lot of things that she needed to prepare before starting a company. She could not slack off at all.


    No matter what questions Liu Ying asked, as long as Yin Xun could answer them, she would explain everything.


    After the two of them finished talking, Liu Ying looked at the time. She was surprised that it was almost midnight. It felt like she had only stayed at Yin Xun¡¯s house for a short while. She did not expect so much time to have passed.


    ¡°It¡¯s late. I¡¯ll go back first. Get to bed early. I¡¯ll be working with you tomorrow.¡± Liu Ying stood up and said goodbye to Yin Xun.


    ¡°Take these snacks back and take your time eating them. I noticed that you enjoy them very much,¡± Yin Xun pointed at the snacks on the table and offered them to Liu Ying.


    ¡°Really? These snacks are pretty expensive. Are you willing to give them all to me?¡±


    Yin Xun stood up and took out a bag from the cabinet. She stuffed the snacks into the bag. ¡°We¡¯re good friends. As such, of course, I don¡¯t mind giving these to you.¡±


    These snacks were given to her by Fang Yao anyway. He said that it was a brand that he had brought back from overseas. There were no preservatives inside them, so they would not last much longer.


    Although Yin Xun loved to eat, there was simply too much for her to finish. Since Liu Ying had a big appetite, she would consider it as a favor and give it all to Liu Ying so that it would not expire and be wasted. It was killing two birds with one stone.


    After she was done packing, Yin Xun passed the bag of snacks to Liu Ying. Liu Ying was so touched that she wanted to hug her again.


    Yin Xun took a step back and avoided it. ¡°If you¡¯re trying to kiss me, forget it. I prefer handsome guys.¡±


    ¡°Hmph, am I not better looking than a dashing man?¡± Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun in disdain and made a face at her.


    After expressing her gratitude to Yin Xun again, Liu Ying walked toward the door.


    When she reached the entrance and put her hand on the doorknob, Liu Ying suddenly turned around and said to Yin Xun, ¡°Although my brother doesn¡¯t have the guts to do anything illegal, he¡¯s not a great person. He can be very stubborn. To get what he wants, he¡¯s sure to have some tricks up his sleeve. It¡¯s better for you to be careful of him.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded in agreement. ¡°Alright, thank you for the reminder. I¡¯ll be careful.¡±


    Liu Ying finally opened the door. However, just as she took a step out, she turned around and said, ¡°By the way, I forgot something. Today, at Fang Yao¡¯s house, there was a woman who exchanged contact information with my brother and they seemed to be scheming against you. 1 don¡¯t know who she is, but she seems to be very hostile to you. Be careful.¡±


    After saying that, Liu Ying did not stay any longer and left.


    It was getting late. Yin Xun wanted to get a bodyguard to send her home, but Liu Ying refused.


    There were security guards patrolling the neighborhood at all times, so there was no real danger. Yin Xun did not insist either.


    After sending Liu Ying off, Yin Xun recalled Liu Ying¡¯s words and frowned.


    Scheming against her? The woman in front of Fang Yao¡¯s house was said to be hostile That must be Qu Lu.


    Did Qu Lu know Liu Cheng? Why did she suddenly want to join forces to deal with her? She knew that Qu Lu had feelings for Fang Yao. Because Yin Xun was always close to Fang Yao, Qu Lu was never convinced by what she said. That was why she had tailed her and reported to Lin Chan so that she could deal with her.


    However, feelings could not be forced. Qu Lu should think of a way to pursue Fang Yao instead of challenging her.


    Recalling her actions since she met Fang Yao, Yin Xun was sure she never had significant contact with Fang Yao. Usually, they only talked about work, and Lin Chan knew all of this.


    Could it be that she was going to experience what happened to a female lead in a romance novel?


    Before Liu Ying left, Yin Xun wanted to ask Liu Ying if Qu Lu and Liu Cheng had let slip anything about their schemes. However, after thinking about it, they definitely would not have said it out loud in public.


    With Liu Ying¡¯s personality, she would definitely say everything she knew.


    Moreover, Liu Cheng was still Liu Ying¡¯s biological brother. Even if the two of them did not have a good relationship, Yin Xun could not bear to say too many bad things about Liu Cheng to Liu Ying. It was already good enough that Liu Ying was willing to give her a warning. As for the specifics, it was better for her to investigate it herself.


    Could it be that she would join this battle for love?


    However, she was just an ordinary reader who had been struck by lightning. She did not want to participate in any of this scheming. She only wanted to make money and protect her family..

    Also, in the original novel, Yin Mo was clearly the female lead. All the stories and supporting roles revolved around her. It was more understandable for someone to target Yin Mo. However, why was there such a role for Yin Xun now?


    There were a few possible situations now. One was that from the moment Yin Xun transmigrated, she became part of the story and became the protagonist of the story. Therefore, fate had given her the standard role in a romance novel ¡ªthe female antagonist.


    The other possibility was that, as a transmigrator, she had stolen Qu Lu¡¯s fortune, causing Qu Lu to become corrupted.


    No matter what the reason was, she only knew that no one was evil from the beginning. Historically, villains more often than not had their own difficulties.


    Even the original male protagonist, Si Fan, and his sister Si Xia, had become so evil because something happened in the past.


    She decided to find an opportunity to solve this problem at its root, which required Qu Lin¡¯s help.


    Thinking of this, she took out her phone and sent a message to Qu Lin through Xintao. However, Qu Lin was not online right now. It seemed that she would only get a reply tomorrow.


    Yin Xun did not go to train today. She looked at the time; it was very late and it was time to sleep. Nothing was more important than getting good sleep. She returned to her room, took a simple shower, and did some skincare. After she was done with that, she lay on the bed.


    Liu Ying was not as relaxed after leaving the villa. Before she reached home, she received a call from Liu Yi.


    She did not even need to pick it up to know what was going on. Liu Cheng must have gone back to report on her.


    She only answered the call when she got home. Just as she pressed the answer button, she heard Liu Yi¡¯s deep voice coming from the phone. ¡°You brat, what trouble have you caused now?!¡±


    ¡°Dad, you haven¡¯t bothered to check on me for so long. When you finally call me, it is to ask me what trouble 1 got into. You¡¯re so unreasonable, it makes me sad,¡± Liu Ying replied angrily.


    ¡°Sad? How can you be sad? You seem to be going wild outside. Your brother said that you¡¯ve invested in Xintao now. 1 haven¡¯t given you any living expenses for quite a while. Where did you get the money to invest?¡± Liu Yi¡¯s tone was also very unhappy.


    Liu Cheng must have said bad things about her to Liu Yi. Otherwise, Liu Yi would not have such an attitude when he called.


    As she was thinking, she heard Liu Yi continue, ¡°I heard that you even stopped your brother from pursuing Yin Xun. Do you know how many people have their eyes on Yin Xun now? The news of her managing Xintao has already spread far and wide. If such an outstanding person can become our family¡¯s daughter-in-law, can you imagine how much help she will be to our family¡¯s company in the future?¡±


    ¡°There are many outstanding people out there. How could she fall for my brother? Don¡¯t even think about it,¡± Liu Ying said.


    ¡°Child, why do you always side with outsiders?¡± Liu Yi said.


    Liu Ying rolled her eyes. She had guessed right. Liu Cheng was so big-mouthed that he had the nerve to say anything. ¡°My brother told you about it, right? That¡¯s right. Not only am I investing in Xintao, but I¡¯m also very close to Yin Xun. How can 1 let my good friend be with someone like my brother? As for the money, 1 didn¡¯t ask you for it anyway. What are you worried about?¡±


    Liu Yi¡¯s tone became even worse. ¡°I¡¯m worried that you¡¯ve been scammed! 1 know that you sold all the things 1 gave you and used the money to invest. Let me tell you, the most authoritative investors in the industry are optimistic about Blue Fox¡¯s development. We also want to join Blue Fox. Hurry up and withdraw your investment. Otherwise, how are we going to tell the new president of Blue Fox about this?¡±


    However, Liu Ying did not care. Anyway, she was not at her family home now. No matter how angry Liu Yi was, he could not touch her. ¡°1 don¡¯t care. It¡¯s my business where 1 invest. Besides, who can¡¯t tell that Xintao is leading in the industry now? Blue Fox is under Xintao¡¯s feet. Why should 1 withdraw my investment from the stronger company just to cooperate with you to invest in Blue Fox? What kind of logic is this?¡±


    ¡°Have you become disobedient after growing up? Do you believe me if 1 say 1 won¡¯t give you spending money in the future?!¡± Liu Yi threatened.


    Liu Ying did not care. She pouted. ¡°Didn¡¯t you cut off my money long ago? What¡¯s the use of saying all this now?¡±


    She knew Liu Yi¡¯s personality. He was stubborn and old-fashioned. No matter how much she explained, Liu Yi would not understand.


    Hence, she thought of an idea. ¡°Dad, how about we make a bet? Let¡¯s limit it to one year. Didn¡¯t you always say that a girl like me shouldn¡¯t manage the company and should just marry a rich man? If 1 start my own business in a year, can you treat me and my brother equally? Let me have the right to manage the company..¡±

 Chapter 524 - Chapter 524: Discharged

    Chapter 524: Discharged


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What trouble are you¡­¡±


    Liu Ying knew what Liu Yi wanted to say and immediately interrupted him. ¡°I¡¯m not causing trouble. I¡¯m being serious. Are you afraid that I¡¯ll snatch your precious son¡¯s assets if you don¡¯t agree? You¡¯re so biased.¡±


    Liu Yi said in a deep voice, ¡°What are you talking about? You and your brother are both my children. There¡¯s no such thing as bias. You¡¯re going to get married in the future. In the end, you¡¯re just different from your brother.¡±


    When Liu Ying heard this, she immediately became anxious. She said angrily, ¡°What¡¯s different between us? Just as you said, we¡¯re all your children. Is it just a difference in gender? Just tell me if you agree! If I lose, I¡¯ll listen to you and get married. I¡¯ll marry whoever you want me to marry. If I win, I will compete fairly with my brother and manage the company together.¡±


    There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line. Liu Ying heard Liu Yi sigh. ¡°Sure.¡±


    ¡°Then it¡¯s settled. During this period, you and my brother are not allowed to disturb me. Oh right, you¡¯re not allowed to disturb Yin Xun either. We¡¯re business partners now. If he disturbs Yin Xun, I will consider that he violated the rules. Then, it¡¯s my win. Tell him that if he wants to do anything, he has to wait until the agreed time!¡± After saying that, Liu Ying hung up without waiting for Liu Yi¡¯s reply.


    It was not enough to hang up the phone. Liu Ying was afraid that Liu Yi would call back and give her an earful, so she simply removed the SIM card.


    ¡°I¡¯ll buy a new one tomorrow.¡± She carefully put away the SIM card she had unloaded.


    If it was in the past, she would have changed her phone. However, now that she had to save money to open a company, she had to change her previous habits of wasting money.


    Yin Xun, who was already asleep, did not know that Liu Ying had already helped her solve the problem with Liu Cheng.


    Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Over the past few days, Yin Xun had been so busy that her feet could barely stay on the ground.


    There were too many projects now and they had just started operations. She kept an eye on Xintao, the express delivery, and Rhythm Video at the same time.


    Apart from that, she also had to keep an eye on the delivery¡¯s navigation system from time to time. She also helped Ye Wen find out about Sha Gao¡¯s mistress and secretly helped her collect evidence. After finding out where her child was, Ye Wen could break up with Sha Gao without worrying.


    After Dai Ning was discharged from the hospital, she was supposed to return to the company to continue working. However, she was suddenly called back by her family and did not return.


    Yin Xun contacted her a few times, but Dai Ning¡¯s phone was switched off. Yin Xun was a little worried that something happened to her, so she sent someone to investigate. She was relieved to find out that Dai Ning was only grounded by her parents.


    Dai Ning¡¯s parents wanted her to study piano overseas so that she could become a pianist in the future. However, Dai Ning did not agree. She only wanted to be a career woman. In the past, she did not have a job. In addition, her parents kept downplaying her ability to stop her from starting a career, causing her to lack confidence.


    Ever since she had interacted with Yin Xun and had been validated by her many times, Dai Ning had become more confident. This time, she was brave enough to argue with her parents. In the end, her parents grounded her and did not let her go back to work.


    Although she had lost her freedom, she was in a safe place. Yin Xun was no longer worried.


    There were many employees in the Yin Corporation. Dai Ning did not hold any important positions in the past, so it did not affect the company if she was not around.


    There was also Liu Ying, who successfully joined Xintao and began working as Mary¡¯s assistant on the Rhythm Short Video project with her.


    Yin Xun had always been confident in Mary¡¯s abilities. After giving Mary a few instructions, she promptly dumped Liu Ying to Mary to manage. She only told her to ask Mary if she had any questions.


    It was finally the weekend, and Yin Xun planned to rest for two days.


    She drove to the Yin family¡¯s home. Yin Cheng had just been discharged from the hospital. She had been busy for many days and had not gone to see Yin Cheng during this period. Now that she was taking a break, she could go home.


    She had just reached home and had yet to enter the house when she was quietly pulled to the side by Wu Li. ¡°Xun, your father has just been discharged from the hospital and hasn¡¯t fully recovered. The incident with Mo¡¯er was not too long ago, and then there¡¯s the matter of your brother. Your father has been asking where Lil Rui has been since he came back. I didn¡¯t dare to tell him. I only said that Lil Rui went to a friend¡¯s house to play. You have to be careful. Don¡¯t anger him to the point of getting him hospitalized again.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded in agreement. ¡°I understand. Don¡¯t worry, Mom. 1 know what I¡¯m doing.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun had agreed, Wu Li was relieved and pulled her back to the living room.


    Just as she was about to enter, Wu Li suddenly thought of something. She stopped in her tracks and said to Yin Xun, ¡°By the way, 1 secretly blocked Lil Rui on your father¡¯s phone. 1 was afraid that he would find out, so I didn¡¯t give him his phone using the excuse that he was sick. Now that he¡¯s back, he has to start work again. I have to give him the phone back.. What if he tries to call your brother?¡±

    Chapter 525: Good News

    Yin Xun comforted her. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I know what to do.¡±


    ¡°I understand. You¡¯ve always been the one at home who makes me worry the least. I¡¯ll explain what happened. Anyway, you know what to do. Let¡¯s go. Your father is waiting for you.¡± After saying that, Wu Li pulled Yin Xun into the house.


    At this moment, Yin Cheng was sitting on the sofa in the living room and eating fruits. When he saw Yin Xun, he smiled and said, ¡°Xun is still the most sensible child. She knows that I¡¯ve been discharged from the hospital and came back to see me. She¡¯s not like her brother, that brat. I¡¯ve been hospitalized for so many days and he hasn¡¯t even come back. He¡¯s been playing like crazy outside. We¡¯ll see how I reprimand him when he comes back.¡±


    ¡°Dad, 1 chased Yin Rui out of the house.¡± Yin Xun sat down beside Yin Cheng and said directly.


    Wu Li was speechless.


    Did they not agree not to mention this matter? Why was Yin Xun making her worry now?


    Wu Li smiled awkwardly. She wanted to say something, but she did not know what to say, so she gave up.


    Yin Cheng was shocked. He asked Yin Xun nervously, ¡°Did Lil Rui do something wrong?¡±


    ¡°Not really.¡± Yin Xun comforted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I just asked Lil Rui to go out and train. If we keep letting him live in a safehouse, it will only backfire in the end. It¡¯s better to take advantage of his young age and make him train during the holidays. It will help his future growth.¡±


    Yin Xun told Yin Cheng about the agreement she made with Yin Rui that day. She also told Yin Cheng about how she used Yin Cheng¡¯s phone to block Yin Rui. However, she did not mention that Yin Rui might take drugs in the future.


    As long as she could hold Yin Rui back now, the drug abuse incident would no longer happen.


    Wu Li thought that Yin Cheng would be angry again. She took out her phone and was ready to call the emergency number at any time. After all, when it was something related to Yin Rui, Yin Cheng seemed to lose his mind easily and was always in a rage.


    However, this time was different from what she had expected. Yin Cheng did not show any signs of anger at all.


    ¡°You want to let him suffer and home his abilities. I don¡¯t object to this, but will it really be useful?¡± Yin Cheng frowned.


    ¡°It will be,¡± Yin Xun said firmly. ¡°He used to fool around and doesn¡¯t know anything. As long as he understands this, he will naturally change those bad habits.¡±


    Although Yin Cheng was not angry, his expression was still a little conflicted. ¡°If he really meets your requirements within two weeks and he wins, will you really let him continue fooling around?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve been sending people to keep an eye on him. You don¡¯t have to worry about his safety. If he really succeeds, doesn¡¯t that mean that he¡¯s actually talented? Then you don¡¯t have to worry about him only being a prodigal in the future.¡± Yin Xun smiled and added, ¡°If he fails, then you can control him in the future. There¡¯s no reason for him to be disobedient.¡±


    Her words made sense. Yin Cheng was convinced.


    When Wu Li saw this, she finally felt relieved. She did not have to worry that Yin Cheng would lose his temper and get hospitalized again.


    ¡°It¡¯s just that¡­¡± Yin Xun glanced at Wu Li and said, ¡°I need your help. You don¡¯t really have to do anything. You just have to make sure not to contact him. He has some misunderstandings about me now. He might try to verify it with you later. Just ignore him if he does.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Cheng had agreed, Yin Xun turned to look at Wu Li. Wu Li had just been wondering if she should go and persuade Yin Rui. Suddenly, Yin Xun looked at her, and her face flushed red. Wu Li gave up on this idea and nodded in agreement.


    Only then did Yin Xun relax. Since she wanted to make the bet, they should be thorough and let Yin Rui learn everything in one go.


    If Yin Rui showed reluctance in the middle of the challenge and relied on someone, he would behave the same in the future.


    After instructing Yin Cheng and Wu Li, she accompanied them for a day. After dinner, Yin Xun drove back to Xintao.


    Mi Jin had called her just now and said that he had something to tell her.


    This was the first time she had seen an employee like Mi Jin take the initiative to work overtime this late. Even if there was the offer of overtime pay, not many people would work to this extent.


    When they arrived at the company, as expected, apart from the two security guards at the entrance, Mi Jin was the only one there; everyone else had gone home.


    Mi Jin saw Yin Xun and excitedly said, ¡°President Yin, good news, good news! You see¡­¡±


    Yin Xun walked to Mi Jin¡¯s computer and saw a QR code on it.. She could not help but ask curiously, ¡°Isn¡¯t this just a QR code? Why are you so excited? Is it that hard to make this?¡±

    ¡°This isn¡¯t a QR code. No, no, it¡¯s more than just a code for receiving payment. Look at this.¡± Mi Jin took out his phone and casually scanned the things on the table.


    The next moment, the purchase information of the items appeared on his phone page. He clicked on it and the screen immediately showed Xintao¡¯s online store.


    Scanning to identify items?


    Yin Xun was a little surprised. In her world, this function only appeared a long time after shopping websites became popular. She did not expect it to be developed by Mi Jin so quickly.


    Mi Jin was truly a genius when it came to programming.


    This function looked ordinary, but Yin Xun knew that once it became popular, Xintao would attract more users.


    Many people would see things they liked outside. As long as they scanned it with their phones, they could immediately browse the shops in Xintao to place an order for that item.


    This function was convenient and simple. As long as it was available online, the users would definitely be eager to use it.


    Without it, users could only rely on keywords to search. It was very likely that they would only find something similar but not the same. It was more accurate if they could directly identify things. If they used this method to search for things, the first choice they were given would naturally be Xintao and not Blue Fox.


    ¡°This function is pretty decent. Can you launch it online immediately?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mi Jin¡¯s excited expression immediately faded a little. He said a little tentatively, ¡°Not yet. I just developed this. The function is indeed useful, but there¡¯s a big drawback. It can only be scanned through the Xintao app, but it can¡¯t be scanned directly with any phone. This is equivalent to giving users of Xintao a convenient tool, but it can¡¯t be used by everyone.


    ¡°There are many users using other software. If the function can¡¯t be used on other software, it does not really make a difference if we provide it or not.¡±


    Yin Xun knew what Mi Jin meant. She pondered for a moment and an idea came to mind.


    ¡°There are too many functions in Xintao now. Although we¡¯ve tried our best to simplify things, it still takes up a lot of memory. Smartphones nowadays generally have limited memory, especially those old phones. They can¡¯t download too much software, or the phones will lag. This is also why many people haven¡¯t downloaded Xintao.¡±


    ¡°Blue Fox has an advantage over us in terms of memory usage. They only have the shopping function. They have a small memory requirement which makes their app popular with users who care about that. This is also the reason why there are still so many loyal users even after such a big incident happened to Blue Fox.¡±


    ¡°I think we should create a simplified version of Xintao that only provides the friend networking service. That way, we can attract users who can¡¯t use Xintao because of the memory requirement.¡± Yin Xun touched her chin and voiced her thoughts.


    Mi Jin was puzzled. ¡°A simplified version? Do you want to separate the Xintao shopping function from the friend networking function, or do you want to make another standalone app?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not a separation, just a similar but simplified version.¡± Yin Xun thought for a moment and added, ¡°It¡¯s just a simpler interface. It only retains the function of adding friends and making friends group on Xintao, and abandons everything else. Of course, remember to add a file transfer function. The data has to be safe and confidential.¡±


    Yin Xun suddenly thought of a problem. In order to protect the company¡¯s secrets, most companies use emails to send work-related messages. It was quite inconvenient.


    If there was a simplified email software that could send documents instantly after adding friends and ensure that the content would not be leaked, a lot of companies would be very willing to use this function.


    Companies were the biggest contributors. As long as Xintao could take down the market provided by these companies, they would not have to worry about a shortage of users.


    As long as the user used their app to scan QR codes for this purpose, they would naturally be sent to the web version of Xintao. Even if the user did not download the Xintao app, they could still buy things there normally.


    Mi Jin was still a little puzzled by Yin Xun¡¯s suggestion. He asked, ¡°But when we founded Xintao, we wanted to focus on shopping, and adding friends was just a side function. After all, you can¡¯t earn money just by making social media software. Now that Xintao already has its own exclusive users, why do we still have to rope in those users who don¡¯t know how to download Xintao? Even if they use a simplified version of Xintao, it won¡¯t help our business.¡±


    ¡°In business, we can¡¯t just look at the immediate benefits. We have to look at the long-term,¡± Yin Xun explained. ¡°Just because there¡¯s no profit in the beginning doesn¡¯t mean there won¡¯t be in the future.. Our main focus this time is to target the companies¡­¡±

 Chapter 527 - Chapter 527: The Matter With Dai Ning

    Chapter 527: The Matter With Dai Ning


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun shared her thoughts with Mi Jin, who finally understood what she wanted. Yin Xun planned to accumulate popularity first.


    ¡°The simplified version should be very easy to make. I only need three days,¡± Mi Jin said confidently.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll be waiting for your good news.¡±


    Since the QR code had been made, she could go back and discuss the cooperation with Fang Yao.


    Before leaving, Yin Xun said to Mi Jin, ¡°Today is a holiday. Go back and rest early after you¡¯re done. Don¡¯t forget to report the overtime pay to the finance department on Monday.¡±


    Mi Jin said nonchalantly, ¡°Money isn¡¯t a problem. 1 just want to fight Si Fan. Since he hasn¡¯t completely fallen, who knows what he might do next? I want to keep an eye on him.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s up to you. I¡¯m leaving. Call me if there¡¯s anything.¡± After Yin Xun finished saying what she needed, she left Mi Jin to his devices and left the company.


    As a boss, it was a good thing to have employees willing to work overtime. Why would she stop them?


    Besides, Mi Jin was right. Si Fan had not left Blue Fox yet. It was likely that he would do something soon. It was best to let Mi Jin keep an eye on him.


    Back at the villa in the suburbs, Yin Xun carried a watermelon to Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    At the entrance of the Fang family¡¯s house, she turned to look around. It was rare to see Liu Cheng not following her today. She found it strange. She realized that Liu Cheng had not followed her since she talked to Liu Ying that day. Could it be that Liu Cheng really got frightened by Liu Ying that day? Or perhaps he had changed his target. No matter what the reason was, it was good news. It saved her the trouble of having to take action.


    If Liu Cheng had still been following her, she planned to pull Liu Cheng over to invest. What a good opportunity. It would be a waste not to use it.


    Thinking of Qu Lu, Yin Xun frowned slightly. Although she was now in the world of a novel, she did not want to be the same as the female protagonists who had to fight against other women over a man. When she had the time, she wanted to meet Qu Lu and talk to her.


    While she was thinking all this, Yin Xun had already walked into Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    ¡°Miss Yin, are you still going to work on your day off today? Young Master is waiting for you in the study room.¡± The butler opened the door and happily welcomed Yin Xun in. ¡°Young Master¡¯s friend has returned from overseas. He came to visit him today. He just left half an hour ago. He brought a lot of specialties with him. When you¡¯re done with things, I will let you try them.¡±


    ¡°Okay, thank you, Uncle Butler.¡± Yin Xun handed the watermelon to the butler. ¡°I came to look for Fang Yao today.¡±


    The butler took the watermelon and said, ¡°That¡¯s good. 1 heard from the young master that he¡¯s also looking for you. Please come in.¡±


    Yin Xun was already familiar with Fang Yao¡¯s home, so she did not need the butler to lead her upstairs to look for Fang Yao.


    When she arrived at the door of Fang Yao¡¯s study, she knocked lightly.


    ¡°Come in.¡± Hearing Fang Yao¡¯s gentle voice, Yin Xun smiled and pushed the door open.


    ¡°You came at just the right time. I have something to show you.¡± Fang Yao raised his hand and gestured for Yin Xun to go over.


    Yin Xun walked to Fang Yao¡¯s side and bent down to look at Fang Yao¡¯s computer, wondering what he wanted to show her. The words on the computer were a little small and could not be seen clearly from afar, so Yin Xun leaned closer.


    Fang Yao was sitting on the chair. Yin Xun¡¯s long, loose hair fell down when she moved. A few strands fell on his body, carrying a faint fragrance.


    The two of them were very close to each other. Fang Yao turned slightly to look at her. He only needed to tilt his head slightly to touch Yin Xun. He was a little dazed and did not speak for a moment.


    Yin Xun stared at the computer screen seriously and did not notice Fang Yao¡¯s abnormal behavior at all. It turned out that Fang Yao had asked her to look at Dai Ning¡¯s information. The screen showed Dai Ning¡¯s family background.


    Previously, Yin Xun only knew that Dai Ning¡¯s family was very rich, but she did not know what her family did. Only now did she realize that Dai Ning¡¯s parents were archaeologists.


    Dai Ning¡¯s family had a lot of antiques. Any one of them could be priceless. No wonder her parents looked down on people who worked in business; their jobs were indeed great.


    Except¡­


    ¡°The background of the Dai Ning family is very good, but is there anything that special about it?¡± Yin Xun did not know what Fang Yao meant and why he suddenly showed her Dai Ning¡¯s background.


    She turned her head and wanted to look at Fang Yao, but forgot that the two of them were only inches apart right now. At this moment, their eyes were only a finger¡¯s distance away, and they could even feel each other¡¯s breathing.


    Yin Xun¡¯s heart suddenly beat faster and her mind suddenly went blank. Fang Yao felt the same. He did not expect Yin Xun to suddenly turn her head and was instantly stunned.


    The two of them stared at each other until there was a knock on the door. Fang Yao immediately came back to his senses. He coughed dryly and said in a deep voice, ¡°Come in.¡±


    Yin Xun also reacted and quickly stood up. The butler walked in..

 Chapter 528 - Chapter 528: A Keen Sense For Danger

    Chapter 528: A Keen Sense For Danger


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The butler saw Yin Xun standing beside Fang Yao, and he froze for a moment. He looked at the unnatural expressions of the two of them and seemed to understand something. He had a smile on the corners of his lips as he placed the box in his hand on the table. He said to Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, this is the specialty product that our Young Master asked his friend to bring for you. I have prepared it. Have a taste.¡±


    ¡°Oh, okay. Thank you,¡± Yin Xun replied and walked to the opposite side of Fang Yao.


    The butler saw that Fang Yao¡¯s expression was a little unpleasant, and a look of self-blame appeared on his face. He shot Fang Yao a look, indicating for him to try his best. Then, he quickly went out and gently closed the door.


    ¡°It seems that our young master is a little enlightened. Sigh, it would have been better if 1 entered a little later. 1 hope 1 won¡¯t disturb the young master again.


    If only the two of them could make some progress¡­¡± The butler muttered softly and walked downstairs.


    At this moment, his heart was in a mess. He was even more nervous than the two people in the study, afraid that he had ruined the atmosphere.


    After the butler left, Yin Xun took a bite of the specialty food that he had just brought over. It was indeed delicious.


    After she started eating, it was as if nothing had happened. Yin Xun straightened her expression and asked Fang Yao, ¡°Why are you showing me Dai Ning¡¯s background? Her parents are indeed impressive, but is there anything wrong?¡±


    Fang Yao looked at her quietly. He did not expect Yin Xun to recover so quickly. He sighed in his heart. Yin Xun was acting so casual now, which meant that she did not think too much about it. He did not know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.


    ¡°The important information is at the back,¡± Fang Yao said to Yin Xun. ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that Dai Ning was injected with drugs? 1 sent someone to investigate. We concluded that the most suspicious person at the moment is her cousin.¡± ¡°Her cousin?¡± Yin Xun was a little surprised. What was going on?


    She recalled Dai Ning¡¯s situation in the original text. It seemed that she did have a cousin who owed a lot of money from gambling. Her cousin¡¯s parents had passed away when he was very young. It had always been Dai Ning¡¯s parents who spent money to take care of him. Even a large portion of his debts was repaid by Dai Ning¡¯s family.


    However, because he was not an important character, the original text only mentioned it briefly. Dai Ning seemed to dislike this cousin of hers. That was all she knew. There were no other details.


    Fang Yao said, ¡°That¡¯s right. Dai Ning¡¯s parents don¡¯t care about her cousin anymore. He didn¡¯t have money to pay off his debts, so he targeted Dai Ning and tried to drag her down so that he could use Dai Ning to get money. The police are also paying attention to him now. Even if he did do it, there¡¯s no way to arrest him because there¡¯s no conclusive evidence.¡±


    ¡°Alright, 1 know what to do.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Fang Yao had already done her a huge favor by helping her investigate. Now that she knew who the culprit was, she would settle things.


    Fang Yao knew Yin Xun¡¯s personality. Seeing that Yin Xun did not bother to ask him for help, he did not persist. Instead, he changed the topic. ¡°Has Blue Fox made any moves recently?¡±


    ¡°They¡¯ve already sorted out the inside. If I¡¯m not wrong, they should be starting to challenge Xintao. Yesterday, 1 heard that the Vice President of Blue Fox contacted the bosses of the couriers. Later, those bosses called Lechang Express again and tactfully threatened the person in charge of Lechang to work with them. Those couriers have always been working with Blue Fox. If they do this, people will naturally figure out Blue Fox¡¯s intention. It¡¯s too obvious.¡±


    ¡°Delivery is the lifeline of shopping websites. As long as they have a stronghold on the delivery, it will be easy to deal with Xintao,¡± Fang Yao said with a smile. ¡°It¡¯s just that they probably don¡¯t know that you have bought ownership of both Xintao Delivery and Lechang Express.¡±


    Yin Xun also smiled and said, ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because Xintao Express is too popular now. Everyone is focusing on Xintao Express, which mainly focuses on expensive, fast, and quality services. They must have thought that if they roped in Lechang, only Xintao Express would be left. With the current purchasing power of Xintao users, our delivery system will collapse. But what they don¡¯t know is that even without Lechang, Xintao isn¡¯t worried about the large number of orders now. I¡¯ve already upgraded it. In any case, they can¡¯t touch Lechang, so there¡¯s no need to worry about it.¡±


    ¡°You have a keen sense for business dangers,¡± Fang Yao said.


    ¡°Of course. After all, I¡¯ve seen so many such things in the past.¡± Yin Xun shrugged.


    Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.. ¡°In the past?¡±

 Chapter 529 - Chapter 529: Helping FangYao

    Chapter 529: Helping FangYao


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Oh, right, I almost forgot. I came to look for you for something. The last time you told me about implementing the collection code at the scenic area, Mi Jin had already completed the QR code. In addition to the payment code, there¡¯s also an online ordering system. I think this function should be very useful to you since there are so many people in that scenic area.¡± Yin Xun was afraid that Fang Yao would pursue the topic of her past. After all, this was something that happened in another world. She could not say it, so she quietly changed the topic.


    Fang Yao did not think too much about it. Yin Xun was the eldest daughter of the Yin Corporation, and the Yin Corporation was considered the leading company in the construction industry. There were definitely all kinds of covetous gazes on the company, so it was normal for Yin Xun to be sharp in this aspect.


    Fang Yao took out his phone and said, ¡°Let me try it first.¡±


    Yin Xun taught him how to use it. ¡°Open Xintao¡¯s scanning function and scan this QR code. A small program will appear. This program doesn¡¯t need users to download it. As long as the merchant downloads it on their main computer and logs in, it will be good to go. After the customer scans it, a menu will pop up. What the merchants need to do is to enter their dishes, drinks, and prices after downloading it. After that, the users can just scan the QR code.¡±


    Since there were no merchants now, Yin Xun used a virtual program made by Mi Jin. Fang Yao tried it and found it was indeed very convenient.


    This saved customers the time needed to queue in line. They could just sit in their seats and place an order. Then the waiter could follow the order number and send the food to the corresponding table.


    ¡°Did you think of this yourself?¡± Fang Yao did not hide his surprise at all. Yin Xun always had unexpected ideas.


    Sometimes, he wondered if Yin Xun was really from this world. It felt as if she came from another world. Many of the things she came up with had never heard of before.


    For example, using their phones to order food sounded like a simple program, but if Yin Xun had not suggested it, no one would have thought about this method.


    Moreover, it was very convenient. It was as if it was tailor-made for scenic spots. Once the tourist season reached its peak, there would be too many people around. It could easily lead to disputes with people fighting over tables and long queues. With this, the problem could be completely avoided.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Sort of. The key is that just thinking about it is not enough. Fortunately, I have Mi Jin. He is able to turn my thoughts into reality so quickly. Mi Jin has already tested the program. Normally, there shouldn¡¯t be any bugs. However, he tested it on his virtual program. I can¡¯t be sure how it will work in a real shop. Just in case, find a shop to test it out first. If there¡¯s no problem, you can use it on a larger scale.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll update you on the results.¡± Although Fang Yao trusted Yin Xun, he had always been careful when it came to business, so he planned to give it proper testing according to Yin Xun¡¯s instructions.


    After talking about serious matters, the two of them chatted for a while. Yin Xun finished the specialties that the butler had brought for her before getting up to leave.


    ¡°Do you like this food? My friend bought a lot of it. You can take it all. I¡¯ll get the butler to pack it for you.¡± He had originally prepared the food for Yin Xun, but he did not say it explicitly. He still needed to find an excuse to give it to Yin Xun.


    After Yin Xun agreed, he led her downstairs.


    Fang Yao called the butler over and asked him to pack everything up. The butler looked at Fang Yao and then looked at Yin Xun. He probed, ¡°Miss Yin, are you leaving already?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. I came to discuss some things with Fang Yao. I¡¯m taking a break today, so I won¡¯t be training for now. i¡¯ll go home directly.¡± ¡°You were talking about official business again¡­¡± The butler sounded a little disappointed and could not help but feel anxious. Why did Yin Xun only come to talk about official business every time?


    Yin Xun was a girl, so it was normal for her not to take the initiative. However, as a man, Fang Yao clearly had feelings for Yin Xun. Why did he not take the initiative? With their way of interacting, when would they be able to reveal their feelings to each other and finally achieve a positive outcome?


    He was worried to death. Yin Xun was outstanding and could be said to be both talented and beautiful. Now, there was already Liu Cheng wooing her. If Fang Yao still did not make a move, what would he do if someone successfully won her over?


    He had heard news of many people planning to seek Yin Xun¡¯s hand in marriage. The doorstep of the Yin family home might collapse under their sheer number.


    No, he had to help their young master now.


    The butler laughed as he said to Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, would you come with me to get it?¡±


    Fang Yao knew what the butler was thinking and could not help but feel a little helpless. ¡°Butler, you can go by yourself. If you have any trouble, get the servants to help you..¡±

 Chapter 530 - Chapter 530: Just Want To Build A Career

    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The butler¡¯s eyes lit up, and he quickly used the opportunity to get them closer. ¡°Young Master, are you worried that I will ask Miss Yin Xun to help me with the work? Don¡¯t worry, I am aware of your concerns, so I just want to have a few words with Miss Yin. It will be done very soon!¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡± The butler was acting a little out of line.


    Yin Xun smiled and walked to the butler¡¯s side. ¡°Alright, 1 enjoy chatting with Uncle Butler too. Uncle Butler, where are the things? I¡¯ll go with you.¡±


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s in the storage room inside.¡± The butler led the way with a smile. Yin Xun followed beside him.


    The butler turned his head around to look at Fang Yao. He saw that Fang Yao was standing behind him and looking at him. He laughed in front of Fang Yao as he asked Yin Xun, ¡°Miss Yin, can I ask you something personal? If it bothers you, you can just not answer.¡±


    The butler knew that he had crossed the line, but he was too anxious and could only plow onward.


    At most, he would be punished after getting the two of them together in the future.


    Yin Xun was very fond of the butler and treated him as her elder, so she did not mind at all. ¡°Go ahead.¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin, you¡¯re an outstanding person. How long did it take for you to get Xintao to such an extent? You even surpassed Blue Fox, who had been developing for so many years. You are the definition of a strong career woman!


    I just wonder¡­ Do you have a boyfriend now? Or do you have a man that you like?¡± When the butler asked the last sentence, he turned his head back to look at Fang Yao.


    Yin Xun was puzzled. Did these two things have anything to do with each other?


    However, she still answered seriously, ¡°I don¡¯t have a boyfriend. As for a man I like, I don¡¯t have one at the moment. I¡¯m only 24. years old. This is the golden period of my life. Right now, I just want to build a career. Dating is too unpredictable. Men might betray me, but money will never betray me.¡±


    Butler,¡±¡­¡±


    Why did Yin Xun give him the feeling that she knew all the secrets of the universe?


    However, Yin Xun was right. People would betray each other, but money was always reliable.


    Not getting the answer he wanted, the butler did not give up and continued to ask, ¡°Then when do you plan to have a boyfriend? You can¡¯t stay single forever, right?¡±


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, ¡°We can only leave this to fate. If I meet the person for me, I¡¯ll get together with him. If not, I won¡¯t force it. There are so many fun things to do now, so why should I be obsessed with getting a boyfriend? Besides, isn¡¯t my life already very good now? I don¡¯t have to worry about food and clothes. I can do what I like. If I don¡¯t meet a suitable person when I¡¯m old, I¡¯ll just go to a nursing home to retire. It doesn¡¯t seem bad to dance and play chess with other old folk.¡±


    After saying all this, Yin Xun even smiled. She seemed to be very satisfied.


    The butler¡¯s heart dropped. It was over. From the looks of it, Yin Xun was not interested in the young master at all.


    It seemed that the young master¡¯s future path was very difficult.


    The two of them went to the storage room. The butler packed the things and went back out with Yin Xun.


    Returning to the hall, Yin Xun took the things from the butler and said a few more words to Fang Yao before saying goodbye and going home.


    Fang Yao and the butler sent Yin Xun to the door together. It was already dark. Although Fang Yao and Yin Xun were neighbors, the entrance of the courtyard was actually a fair distance away.


    The butler asked Fang Yao to send Yin Xun home, but Yin Xun refused. Fang Yao did not force the matter either. He only watched Yin Xun leave through the door until her figure disappeared from his sight.


    ¡°Young Master, why aren¡¯t you taking the initiative? If you don¡¯t make a move, you will never have a chance.¡± The butler looked at Fang Yao sadly.


    ¡°That won¡¯t be the case. Don¡¯t worry,¡± Fang Yao said in a deep voice. ¡°Yin Xun has placed all her attention on the company. Xintao is climbing up the hill now. She won¡¯t divert her energy to do useless things. If I make my feelings clear now, it will only distract her. With our current identities, what do you think will happen if i confess but she doesn¡¯t accept me?¡±


    ¡°If Miss Yin really doesn¡¯t see you that way, she can just turn you down. After interacting with her for so long, we know that her personality is very straightforward. She will say whatever she wants to say, and she won¡¯t keep you hanging. You don¡¯t have to be afraid of suffering a loss,¡± the butler said helplessly.


    Fang Yao shook his head and said indifferently, ¡°It has nothing to do with this. What I¡¯m worried about is that she¡¯ll be intimidated because of my identity. That could affect her judgment. Since i like her, I naturally can¡¯t drag her down. i have to support her wholeheartedly. Her dream is to build her own business empire. Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll help her realize this dream.¡±


    The butler frowned, his face full of worry.. ¡°But¡­¡±

 Chapter 531 - Chapter 531: The Spy Is Here

    Chapter 531: The Spy Is Here


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s best to let nature take its course when it comes to relationships. Love should not bind people. If she¡¯s happy. 1¡¯11 be happy too.¡± Fang Yao looked up at the sky. It was cloudy tonight, and there were no stars. Only a crescent moon was faintly discernible.


    The butler rolled his eyes. Why did Fang Yao suddenly act like a secondary male lead?


    Seeing that Fang Yao was not fighting for it and was willing to give up, he said angrily, ¡°Even if the lord is not anxious, the slave is. If you don¡¯t pursue such a good girl urgently, what will you do if she is snatched away by someone else in the end?¡±


    Fang Yao laughed and said, ¡°Butler, don¡¯t curse yourself like that.¡±


    The butler was stunned for a moment. After a long time, he realized what Fang Yao meant and said angrily, ¡°You brat, you can¡¯t even protect your own interests and you still have the cheek to tease me!¡±


    The butler and Fang Yao did not have so many rules when in private. Occasionally, the butler would speak to Fang Yao in the tone of an elder. Fang Yao had never minded.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be angry. 1 was just joking with you.¡± Fang Yao raised his hand and made an oath. He promised the butler, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. After I help Yin Xun realize her dream, I will go on the offensive. I will definitely work hard.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ll work hard? A few years, ten years, or decades? Do you want to continue waiting like this? When you are old and sickly, let¡¯s see if Miss Yin will still like you!¡± the butler hissed.


    Fang Yao said, ¡°¡­How could that be a problem if I¡¯m the same age as Yin Xun?¡±


    ¡°Oh, you¡¯re the same age. That¡¯s wonderful news. When you¡¯re in your fifties or sixties, you¡¯ll be able to woo her. That¡¯s good. That must be what they mean by a couple getting old together. You¡¯ve just saved yourself a step.¡± The butler snorted.


    Fang Yao did not seem to be concerned about this. He smiled and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t seem too bad to have white hair.¡±


    ¡°Your biggest advantage now is that you have money. At least you can stay by her side as an ATM. When she succeeds in her career, you will lose this insurance. We¡¯ll see if you can still smile then.¡±


    The butler raised his hand and patted Fang Yao¡¯s shoulder like an elder. He sighed and said, ¡°Go on and maintain this mentality. If one day Miss Yin Xun suddenly brings home a man and introduces him to you, you have to smile as happily as you are now.¡±


    Fang Yao stood where he was and lowered his head thoughtfully.


    After a moment of silence, he slowly said, ¡°Actually, 1 still have a trump card.¡±


    ¡°What?¡± The butler looked at him curiously.


    ¡°Haven¡¯t you heard of this saying? If you want to capture a woman¡¯s heart, you have to capture her stomach first. Yin Xun likes my cooking very much.¡± Fang Yao¡¯s tone was a little weak and lacked confidence.


    ¡°Haha, then continue to work hard and train your culinary skills.¡± The butler smiled at Fang Yao and left.


    Fang Yao stood rooted to the ground and frowned slightly. ¡°He¡¯s right. My culinary skills are indeed lacking now. Looks like I have to study hard when 1 have time in the future.¡± With that, he walked toward his room.


    Two days later, Si Fan had yet to make a move on Yin Rui, but he had started to make a move on Xintao.


    On the day of Xintao¡¯s recruitment test, a large number of employees resigned from Blue Fox.


    Among these people were employees from all kinds of positions in Blue Fox. There were ordinary employees from management positions. It was unknown if Si Fan had arranged it this way on purpose or if it was just a coincidence.


    There were so many people. Yin Xun thought of what Fang Yao told her the other day. Si Fan would plant two spies from Blue Fox. One of them was confirmed to be Si Fan¡¯s assistant, Cheng She. As for the other one, even Fang Yao did not know who it would be. Yin Xun would have to think of a way to figure it out.


    After the interview, Yin Xun asked the recruiter about things. Sure enough, Cheng She was here, so she asked someone to bring Cheng She to her office.


    ¡°You¡¯re Si Fan¡¯s assistant, Cheng She?¡± Yin Xun sized Cheng She up expressionlessly and asked indifferently.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, President Yin, but I have already been fired by Blue Fox. Coincidentally, I bumped into Xintao¡¯s recruitment, so I wanted to come over and give it a try.¡±


    Cheng She felt uncomfortable under Yin Xun¡¯s gaze. He was so nervous that he felt like his body was about to crumble. If Yin Xun could tell that he was a spy and chase him away, he would be finished.


    Before he came, Si Fan had repeatedly instructed him to stay at Xintao. Even if Yin Xun found out, he had to stay.


    Cheng She cursed in his heart. If he was discovered to be a spy, it was already a good result if he did not get beat up.. How could he expect them to let him stay? Who would be brainless enough to keep an undercover agent by their side?

    Chapter 532: Seen Through By Yin Xun


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun placed one hand on her chest and rested her chin with the other. She looked at Cheng She silently for a moment before a smile suddenly appeared on her face. ¡°I know you¡¯re a spy sent by Si Fan, so you don¡¯t have to worry that 1¡¯11 see through you. No need to be nervous.¡±


    As Yin Xun spoke, she poured a glass of water for Cheng She and handed it to him.


    Cheng She was overwhelmed by the unexpected offer. The hand that he used to accept the cup was trembling. lie held the cup with both hands and stuttered, ¡°President Yin, 1 am not a spy. That is to say¡­l am really just here to apply for a job¡­¡±


    ¡°I already know the reason. You don¡¯t have to come up with a lie. Besides, your status is not ordinary. 1 was informed the moment you came to the interview. Otherwise, how would 1 know that you were here? I¡¯m not in charge of recruiting.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s tone was calm as she lied to Cheng She, making it sound like she was telling the truth.


    Actually, it was Fang Yao who had reminded her about this. They had long known that Cheng She would most likely be sent out by Si Fan.


    However, none of that was important.


    Most importantly, Si Fan was willing to let Cheng She be a spy. Yin Xun thought that Si Fan would do everything he could to keep Cheng She.


    After all, the current Si Fan was not as glorious as before.


    In order to prevent Blue Fox from going bankrupt, Si Fan was willing to give the profits to the investors. He was willing to be reduced to a nominal manager, but in reality, he did not have any real power. As for the employees who were close to Si Fan, other than those who were especially capable, the ordinary employees were fired.


    Knowing Si Fan¡¯s ambition, he would not be willing to stay like this forever. When Blue Fox recovered, or when he recovered his power, he would definitely take the company back.


    However, if he wanted to do this, he needed to have his confidants in Blue Fox.


    According to Fang Yao, Si Fan had almost leaked the company¡¯s secrets because he had hooked up with Zhu Chuan. Although there was no direct evidence that he had given this information to Zhu Chuan in the end, the new CEO, Le An, was still wary of him. Le An was afraid that Si Fan would do something reckless again in his anger. This time, he had leaked the company¡¯s secrets. Si Fan might provide more information to an external party next time. For the sake of Blue Fox¡¯s safety, Le An directly stopped Si Fan from attending the company¡¯s meeting.


    There were still a few of Si Fan¡¯s people in the management. However, because Le An was very strict with them, none of them dared to say too much to Si Fan for fear of being fired.


    As a result, Si Fan did not know the current internal situation of Blue Fox. He had nothing to do every day and could only worry.


    If he wanted to make a comeback, it was important to have a capable person by his side.


    Yin Xun had heard about Cheng She¡¯s situation at Blue Fox. Not only did he have to take care of the employees for Si Fan, but he was also the one who gave the orders for many important decisions.


    Working overtime was a common occurrence. It could even be said that Cheng She was the core of Blue Fox.


    It did not matter if Si Fan was gone. If Cheng She left, however, the company would immediately fall into a state of paralysis. This was because Si Fan did not know his company as well as Cheng She did. The few decisions that led to catastrophes for Blue Fox were all issued by Si Fan.


    However, such an important person was abandoned by the company. This was not a loss to Blue Fox, but to Si Fan. It was equivalent to a ferocious beast losing its teeth.


    In fact, as long as Si Fan wanted to do it, he could easily keep Cheng She in the company. He could make it sound like he was punished ruthlessly on the surface, but no one would know if there was actually a punishment.


    Now that he had sent Cheng She out, without any reliable and capable people by his side, Si Fan¡¯s situation in Blue Fox would be even worse than before.


    Yin Xun could not help but find it funny when she saw Cheng She¡¯s face turn red and beads of sweat appear on his forehead due to nervousness.


    It was obvious that Cheng She had been forced by Si Fan to be a spy. If he had a choice, Cheng She would definitely not have come here.


    Yin Xun did not intend to make things difficult for him, but there were some things that she had to clarify. ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, Si Fan did not send you alone. Who are the other undercover agents?¡±


    Cheng She suddenly raised his head and looked at Yin Xun in disbelief. He did not expect Yin Xun to be able to see through even this.


    However, it was one thing for Yin Xun to know, but he could not take the initiative to say it.


    ¡°Well, I don¡¯t know who he is¡­¡± Cheng She said in a panic.


    Even if he knew, he could only say that he did not know. If Yin Xun chased the two of them out and Si Fan found out that he sold out the other person, he would be in deep trouble.


    Yin Xun smiled and nodded in understanding. ¡°Oh, so you¡¯re alone.¡±


    Cheng She was so nervous that he forgot to pay attention to his words. Yin Xun immediately caught on.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­.¡± How could this happen?!

 Chapter 533 - Chapter 533: Name That Person

    Chapter 533: Name That Person


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Cheng She took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.


    Everyone in the industry knew that he was Si Fan¡¯s assistant. If he suddenly resigned and jumped ship, no matter which company he went to, the other party would be wary. Therefore, even if he was rejected by Yin Xun, he could not be blamed for failing. When the time came, he would just talk to Si Fan and say that Yin Xun did not want him because he was his assistant. That way, he would not be blamed.


    The more Cheng Shi thought about it, the angrier he became. There were so many employees in the company. Why did Si Fan choose him to be the undercover agent in the end?


    He knew very well that Si Fan had not asked him to do this because of trust. He had been with Si Fan for so many years, but he had never seen Si Fan really trust anyone.


    Si Fan must have something else in mind. Perhaps he thought that Cheng She knew something or that he could be easily controlled, which was why Si Fan was at ease with sending him out.


    It was just like how Dong Zi was used as a spy. Si Fan had asked him to monitor Dong Zi. To monitor Dong Zi!


    Cheng She suddenly thought of something and his eyes widened. Could Si Fan have said something similar to Dong Zi in private and asked Dong Zi to monitor him?


    The more he spoke, the more mistakes he would make. Since Yin Xun had already seen through him, there was a high chance that he was already lost.


    ¡°President Yin, if you really can¡¯t trust me, then I will leave now. However, before 1 leave, can I ask you for a favor?¡± Cheng She laughed bitterly and asked nervously.


    ¡°What is it?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows.


    Cheng She placed the cup on the table and stood up. He bowed to Yin Xun before saying, ¡°When you tell others about this, can you not say that I¡¯m an undercover agent? Just say that you rejected me because I¡¯m Si Fan¡¯s assistant.¡±


    Si Fan was ruthless and extremely conceited. He would not think that there was a problem with his plan. He would only think that Cheng She was incapable. While blaming him, he would also punish him for exposing the plan.


    Although Cheng She did not directly explain the reason, Yin Xun immediately knew what he meant. She smiled and said, ¡°How about this? Why don¡¯t we make a deal? Even though 1 know that you¡¯re a spy, I don¡¯t know who the other person is. 1 can let you stay. As long as you tell me who your accomplice is, 1 can pretend that I don¡¯t know your identity and let you stay here.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It just so happens that Xintao is short of people now. You¡¯ve been with Si Fan for many years, so you must have a lot of experience. You can help me manage things.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Cheng She was completely confused by Yin Xun¡¯s response.


    Did Yin Xun not understand the current situation? Was he not a spy sent by her archenemy, Si Fan?


    Logically speaking, she should be interrogating him to find out who the undercover agent was. If he refused to say anything, she should reject all the employees who came from Blue Fox. They could all just be chased away.


    ¡°Exactly what it sounds like.¡± Yin Xun raised her lips. ¡°I¡¯m very short of people now, and in order to increase the chances of me keeping them, Si Fan must have sent over people with great ability. Since that¡¯s the case, why don¡¯t I fulfill his wish and keep all of you here? As long as you tell me who the other person is, i won¡¯t make things difficult for you. Otherwise¡­¡±


    Yin Xun leisurely took two sips of water before continuing, ¡°Just take it that I¡¯m threatening you. If you tell me, I¡¯ll pretend that I don¡¯t know anything and let you stay. If you don¡¯t, I¡¯ll chase you away and tell everyone about this. As for what Si Fan will do to you when he finds out, it has nothing to do with me.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    As expected, all bosses had black hearts. They did even care about the lives of their employees.


    In the past, he had thought that Yin Xun was different from Si Fan. Now, it seemed that there might not be much difference.


    Should he reveal it or not? If he did not, he was afraid that Yin Xun would do something bad to him. If he revealed it, he was worried that it was all a trap. For a moment, Cheng She was extremely conflicted, not knowing what to do.


    Yin Xun saw that Cheng She did not speak for a long time and his expression was conflicted. She said, ¡°1 know that you will contact Si Fan later. You can discuss it with Si Fan and tell him that I don¡¯t trust you. Let¡¯s see if you can do anything to gain my trust. Tell Si Fan that as long as you can gain my trust, I will make you my assistant.¡±


    ¡°Assistant!¡± Cheng She looked at Yin Xun in shock, not knowing if Yin Xun was lying to him or not.


    As the two of them were talking, Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang.


    Yin Xun took out her phone and looked at the caller ID. When she saw the name on it, she smiled and said to Cheng She, ¡°I¡¯ll take this call. Go back first. It¡¯s best if you can use this time to contact Si Fan. When you¡¯re done talking, come and find me..¡±

 Chapter 534 - Chapter 534: Si Fan Was Going To Make A Move

    Chapter 534: Si Fan Was Going To Make A Move


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This was Cheng She¡¯s first time interacting with Yin Xun. He did not understand her character and had only heard about her from others in the past. Although he was wary of Yin Xun and was afraid that she was actually trying to wheedle information out of him and tell Si Fan, he did not dare to say anything.


    However, he was also tactful. He knew that it was not a good idea for him to be by Yin Xun¡¯s side when she answered the call, so he nodded and bade Yin Xun farewell.


    Seeing Cheng She leave the office, Yin Xun pressed the answer button.


    It was a call from Qu Lin. Her coquettish voice came through the phone. ¡°Sister Yin, are you short of money now? Do you need me to give you more cash?¡±


    Yin Xun said jokingly, ¡°Are you calling me just to give me money? Do 1 need to pay it back?¡±


    ¡°Of course not, because I want to continue investing in you!¡± Qu Lin said. ¡°Initially, my father thought highly of Blue Fox, but he didn¡¯t expect a dark horse like you to appear. Now, he also thinks highly of Xintao. When he found out that I invested in your company, he praised me for having a good eye and told me to continue investing without worry. That¡¯s why I called to ask, do you still need investments?¡±


    Yin Xun did not expect to be acknowledged by the Qu family. The Qu family was a family with a similar status to the Fang family. With their help, her future path would be much easier.


    ¡°Can you save this investment for later? We have enough funds now.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°You must have called me after seeing how popular Xintao is.¡±


    Ding. A message came, but Yin Xun was in the middle of a phone call and ignored it.


    ¡°Not entirely. 1 have something else to tell you, but it¡¯s inconvenient to explain over the phone. Can I look for you at your office?¡± Qu Lu asked.


    ¡°Of course. I happen to be free today.¡± After Yin Xun hung up the phone, she opened her Xintao app.


    It was a message from the paparazzo.


    [Yin Rui keeps failing in business deals, and he has even been cheated of more than a hundred thousand yuan by his friends. Now, he¡¯s starting to get anxious. He is willing to use any method and try any business as long as he can earn money. This is Si Fan¡¯s goal. After hearing that Yin Rui¡¯s goal was to earn money, he deliberately let his people delay Yin Rui to prevent him from succeeding. He will only make a move when Yin Rui is anxious near the deadline.]


    [From the looks of it, the time had come. Si Fan should be making a move soon. Right now, he already started using his lackeys to slowly lure Yin Rui into taking drugs. They told Yin Rui that there was a business that could make quick money, but it was something they couldn¡¯t let others know. Yin Rui didn¡¯t ask. If everything went according to plan, Yin Rui might be tricked into buying and selling drugs in another two to three days.]


    After reading the paparazzo¡¯s message, Yin Xun¡¯s gaze darkened. Was Si Fan finally getting impatient and was going to make a move?


    She did not know if Si Fan realized that Yin Rui was getting anxious and felt that the time was ripe to take down Yin Rui, or if he wanted to use this opportunity to divert her attention so that Cheng She could successfully infiltrate.


    There was no doubt that Si Fan was involved in drugs. Unfortunately, she had never been able to find any substantial evidence.


    Since that was the case, this was an opportunity to take him down.


    Since Si Fan was about to make a move, Yin Xun could not let Yin Rui stay outside alone. It was too dangerous.


    If he really followed his friends to Si Fan¡¯s drug den, he would not be spared even if he was Yin Mo¡¯s brother. Yin Rui would definitely be forced to join them. Otherwise, he would not be able to come out.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and took out her phone to send a message.


    On the other side, Cheng She was brought to an empty office room by the staff from Xintao. Although he really did not want to tell Si Fan about this, he had no choice but to contact him because of Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    After thinking for a long time about how to tell Si Fan, he took out his phone and called Si Fan in fear.


    He reorganized Yin Xun¡¯s words and reported to Si Fan, ¡°President Si, when President Yin heard that I am your assistant, she immediately did not want me anymore. Didn¡¯t you also ask Zhu Chuan to come over to deal with her previously? She is very guarded against our people from Blue Fox now. How can I gain her trust?¡±


    He did not dare to say that Yin Xun had already seen through him. Since Yin Xun said that she would give him a chance, he would give it a try. Otherwise, if the mission failed, he would have to face Si Fan¡¯s anger when he returned.


    ¡°You¡¯re calling her President Yin now?¡± Si Fan said coldly.


    Cheng She hurriedly corrected himself. ¡°I meant to say Yin Xun. She¡¯s not worthy of being compared to you. The thing is, if i want to stay under her, 1 need to show respect. It would be disastrous if 1 accidentally called her by name one day..¡±

 Chapter 535 - Chapter 535: Forced To Betray

    Chapter 535: Forced To Betray


    Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Hmm.¡± Si Fan said in a low voice, ¡°If you want to gain her trust, you have to do something that she thinks I spy would never do. That¡¯ll work. Hmph, looks like I¡¯ve underestimated her. 1 thought she wouldn¡¯t be this cautious. It turns out that she still has some brains.¡±


    ¡°Then what should we do?¡± Cheng She hurriedly asked.


    Si Fan sneered and said, ¡°Just as 1 expected. You¡¯re my assistant and have been with me for so long. It¡¯s normal for Yin Xun to suspect you. If she didn¡¯t, I¡¯d be worried that she has something up her sleeve. How about this? Tell her that Dong Zi is an undercover agent and say that you overheard this news. If she doesn¡¯t believe me, make her search Dong Zi¡¯s pockets. 1 placed a note in Dong Zi¡¯s bag.¡±


    Cheng She said, ¡°Are we going to sell out Dong Zi just like that?¡±


    Having been by Si Fan¡¯s side for so long, he used to think that Si Fan was quite cruel. Now, it seemed that Si Fan had no conscience at all.


    Back then, Si Fan had made an agreement with Dong Zi for him to become an undercover agent and Si Fan would give him a sum of money in return. In the end, the money he got was only a deposit. He had tricked Dong Zi into doing his bidding and had no intention of paying the rest.


    If Cheng She identified Dong Zi now, Dong Zi would definitely be chased out by Yin Xun. At that time, Si Fan would refuse to pay the rest of the money on the pretext that Dong Zi had failed his mission.


    However, this money should have been Dong Zi¡¯s. It was the overtime pay he deserved. Si Fan¡¯s actions were really disappointing. Perhaps one day, he would also be abandoned by Si Fan just like that.


    With this thought in mind, Cheng She wanted to escape Si Fan¡¯s clutches even more.


    ¡°President Si, Yin Xun is currently suspicious of me, but Dong Zi hasn¡¯t been discovered. Why don¡¯t you let Dong Zi continue to be a spy and let me take the fall?¡± Cheng She could not understand the logic, so he asked directly.


    Si Fan sneered and said, ¡°You¡¯re more valuable than Dong Zi. 1 arranged for him to cover for you. The reason we took him so seriously at the beginning was to make him really believe in his status. In the end, he¡¯s just a programmer who can only come into contact with that aspect of business. But you¡¯re different. You¡¯re a senior assistant, so you can definitely come into contact with various departments of the company and do better work for me. Besides, when you tell Yin Xun that I chased you out of the company because you took the blame, she¡¯ll definitely treat you like how she treated Mi Jin.¡±


    ¡®Thank you for thinking so highly of me¡¯, Cheng She thought to himself. What did this mean?


    Of course, he knew what Si Fan was thinking. Si Fan felt that the two of them had already fallen out on the surface. Cheng She was Si Fan¡¯s former assistant; he knew a lot about Blue Fox and was very capable. He would definitely be able to become Yin Xun¡¯s confidant like Mi Jin.


    However, Si Fan had overlooked something. His situation was completely different from Mi Jin¡¯s. His motive was too obvious.


    However, Cheng She remembered Yin Xun saying that as long as he could reveal Dong Zi, she would let him stay in Xintao. She would not go back on her word, right?


    Anyway, he had already reported to Si Fan and these were Si Fan¡¯s instructions now. This way, Cheng She could avoid offending either side. He might even be in a better spot in the future.


    He sighed again, feeling the sorrow of being an insignificant being. In front of these black-hearted bosses, someone like him really did not have any freedom at all.


    ¡°By the way, if you call me now, Yin Xun might find out and get suspicious. In the future, don¡¯t call me during the day if you have nothing else to do. Call me when you get home,¡± Si Fan reminded him.


    Cheng She said, ¡°Okay, you don¡¯t have to worry. There¡¯s no one here or outside. Yin Xun is busy with other things and doesn¡¯t have time to check on me.¡±


    Si Fan heaved a sigh of relief. ¡°That¡¯s more like it. Alright, if there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll hang up. Remember, no matter what method you use, you must stay at Xintao. Think of a way to help me monitor Yin Xun¡¯s every move.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Cheng She said. After the call ended, he finally released his pent-up temper. He cursed silently into the phone, then composed himself and went back to find Yin Xun.


    ¡°How is it?¡± Yin Xun looked at him with a smile.


    This time, Cheng She did not hesitate. Instead, he directly told her about Dong Zi.


    After he finished speaking, Cheng She looked at Yin Xun concernedly. ¡°President Yin, 1 know that it is not appropriate for me to say this with my status, but I still want to ask you for something. Can you not spread the news about Dong ZI? Otherwise, Dong ZI will not be able to find a job in the future.¡±


    Looking at Cheng She, Yin Xun suddenly tilted her head slightly and said with a smile, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what to do.¡±


    ¡°Oh right, can you handle a project on your own?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Cheng She did not have much confidence. He thought for a few seconds before nodding. ¡°I¡¯ve done it at Blue Fox before. It should be possible¡­¡±


    ¡°Then do you want to discuss business?¡± Yin Xun continued to ask.


    ¡°Maybe. I¡¯ve done things by myself at Blue Fox before,¡± Cheng Shen answered truthfully..

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun asked Cheng She about a few more things. Without exception, Cheng She had done all of those himself at Blue Fox.


    Yin Xun suddenly smiled. ¡°You¡¯re quite omnipotent. You can do everything. Looks like I¡¯m going to have a great assistant.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡®President Yin, just say that you want me to be your slave. There¡¯s no need to be so tactful.¡¯


    ¡°Since you¡¯re so experienced, can you lead your own team?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Cheng She nodded slightly.


    ¡°If you are to be in charge of a project from the beginning and keep an eye on the progress the entire time, you will need to contact other companies from time to time. Can you do it?¡± Yin Xun continued to ask.


    ¡°I should be able to. I was in charge of projects by myself when 1 was at Blue Fox.¡± Cheng She nodded again.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright, since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll hand the mapping project to you. This project is a collaboration with Smart Maps, and currently, we¡¯re at the stage of developing the voice navigation system. Your job is to monitor the progress. 1¡¯11 leave the allocation of teams to you.¡±


    Cheng She looked at Yin Xun in disbelief, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears. He asked uncertainly, ¡°You mean¡­ you want me to be in charge of an entire project?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and said calmly, ¡°That¡¯s right. Did I not make myself clear just now? I¡¯ll leave this project to you.¡±


    ¡°But I¡¯m ¡­ I¡¯ve just arrived.¡± Cheng She was so surprised that he almost revealed his true identity.


    It was one thing for Yin Xun to guess he was a spy, but it was another thing if he said it himself. No matter what, he could not say those words.


    Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately changed his words. ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that 1¡¯11 let something slip?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s there to be afraid of? Si Fan let you come over here to go against Blue Fox. When both companies have taken damage, he will reap the benefits from the backseat. Since you want to fight against Blue Fox, you will have to work hard. If the new president of Ble Fox does not suffer any losses, Si Fan will not get the chance to control Blue Fox again,¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    Cheng She nodded. On the surface, he tried his best to remain calm, but his heart was in turmoil. He did not know if there were Yin Xun¡¯s spies in Blue Fox, or if Yin Xun was smart enough to guess how things would play out. He did not expect her to know so much about Si Fan¡¯s plans.


    Si Fan thought that his plan was flawless. He did not expect Yin Xun to take the initiative before the plan even started. It seemed that it would be an uphill battle for Si Fan to defeat Yin Xun in the future.


    He knew that Yin Xun wanted to take advantage of his ability, but he was still a little puzzled. ¡°But 1 just arrived. Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll ruin your project?¡±


    The project was about digital mapping. Although he did not know the details yet, it seemed to be a very important project.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Of course, 1 have my concerns. That¡¯s why the project I¡¯m giving you is completely independent. Furthermore, it¡¯s just at the beginning phase. You can reveal information to Si Fan to your heart¡¯s content. If this project succeeds in the end, the credit will be yours. There will definitely be a generous reward. If it fails, it¡¯ll just be a waste of time. It won¡¯t affect Xintao.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    Should he thank Yin Xun for thinking highly of him, or should he just be relieved that Yin Xun had given him a reason to brush Si Fan off?


    No matter what, Yin Xun¡¯s words just now made him feel less guilty. Of course, he had to agree now.


    Seeing Cheng She nod, Yin Xun said to him, ¡°Alright, go and report to the personnel department later. Then come to work tomorrow. When you¡¯re ready, 1¡¯11 hand the project to you. This project is a little complicated. There are some details that 1 need to personally instruct you.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Cheng Shen replied blankly, then turned around and left.


    He did not expect he would get to stay in Xintao just like that. However, Cheng She was a little worried about what would happen to Dong Zi. He silently apologized to Dong Zi. They were all workers, but he had no choice.


    After Cheng She left, Yin Xun recalled what Cheng She had said. She picked up the office phone on the table and called the HR department.


    The other party picked up very quickly. Yin Xun asked, ¡°Is there anyone called Chen Dong who came for the interview today?¡±


    ¡°Please wait for a moment. There are many people who came for the interview today. Let me check.¡± After that, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the line. ¡°President Yin, 1 have found it. There is indeed a person called Chen Dong. He was interviewed by Brother Mi. Brother Mi has not told me the results yet, so I am not sure if he will earn a place..¡±

 Chapter 537 - Chapter 537: Found The Spy

    Chapter 537: Found The Spy


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Alright, i understand,¡± Yin Xun said and hung up.


    She had forgotten to ask Cheng She what the person named Dong Zi did for a living.


    However, since Mi Jin was handling the interview, he must be a programmer. Thinking of this, Yin Xun walked toward Mi Jin¡¯s office.


    When Yin Xun came to look for Mi Jin, he was so focused on the computer that he did not even hear the door close.


    Yin Xun gently walked to the side, intending to sit on a chair and wait for Mi Jin to finish his work.


    Mi Jin stared at the computer and typed. He must be writing some sort of program. Yin Xun waited for more than ten minutes before Mi Jin finally made a move.


    He stretched lazily and turned to look at the door. When he saw Yin Xun, he was startled.


    ¡°President Yin, when did you come over?¡± Mi Jin took a deep breath and asked.


    Yin Xun was amused his expression. ¡°i just arrived. I didn¡¯t call out to you because you seem to be in deep focus. I heard that you interviewed a person called Chen Dong today. How is he?¡±


    ¡°Chen Dong, let me think.¡± Mi Jin pondered about it. He had just finished writing the code when he was startled again. The sudden question left him stunned for a moment.


    After thinking for a while, Mi Jin tapped his head and said, ¡°Yes, there¡¯s a programmer called Chen Dong. He¡¯s quite capable. However, 1 don¡¯t plan to keep him. He came from Blue Fox. We didn¡¯t have much interaction in the past and I don¡¯t know him very well. I¡¯m afraid that he might be here as an undercover agent. I was just about to report to human resources that he didn¡¯t pass.¡±


    He was traumatized by the incident with Zhu Chuan. As long as it was someone from Blue Fox, they would be rejected after he interviewed them.


    Adhering to the principle that he would rather hurt an innocent person than let a rotten one in, he did not give Si Fan a chance to plant a spy. Even if the other party was an outstanding person, he would not let them in.


    ¡°Not bad. I didn¡¯t expect you to read people this well now. You actually realized that he¡¯s a spy.¡± Yin Xun said in relief.


    Earlier, she had wanted to ask Mi Jin what he thought of Chen Dong before revealing what she learned. She did not expect Mi Jin to see through it by himself, which surprised her.


    It was fair to say that ATi Jin was one-track-minded. He did not understand the ways of the world at all. This was also why Yin Xun spoke more tactfully to others but was always blunt with ATi Jin. Otherwise, Mi Jin would not understand.


    ¡°He really is a spy?!¡± It was Mi Jin¡¯s turn to be surprised.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°That¡¯s right, but just pretend that you don¡¯t know about this. Tell the personnel that he passed. In the end, I¡¯ll personally interview him to confirm it. 1 have something to ask him.¡±


    Mi Jin frowned. ¡°Since you know that he¡¯s a spy, why would you keep him? Didn¡¯t you reject that guy last time you realized that something was wrong with him?¡± Mi Jin added inwardly, ¡®Although what you actually did was call the police.¡¯


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°This time, the situation is different than with Zhu Chuan. Just do as 1 say. As for the reason, you don¡¯t have to ask. 1 can¡¯t tell you yet.¡±


    When Mi Jin opened his mouth, Yin Xun stopped him before he could say anything.


    As expected, she had guessed correctly. Mi Jin wanted to ask what was going on. However, since Yin Xun did not intend to tell him, he did not pry.


    Facing Mi Jin¡¯s puzzled gaze, Yin Xun explained, ¡°You don¡¯t understand the ways of the world, so it¡¯s easy for others to wheedle information out of you. Therefore, to be safe, it¡¯s best for me to know about this myself.¡±


    Mi Jin said, ¡°¡­Just say that my EQis low.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Well, you said it yourself.¡±


    ¡°But why don¡¯t you speak to human resources yourself instead of making me do the talking? Surely you can at least tell me this much?¡± Mi Jin asked.


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°No, I¡¯ll tell you after this matter is over.¡±


    Mi Jin, ¡°¡­Alright.¡±


    Mi Jin followed Yin Xun¡¯s instructions and got someone to inform Dong Zi to come for the second interview. However, this time, Yin Xun would be the interviewer.


    After everything was settled, Yin Xun had some free time, but she realized that Qu Lin was not there yet. If Qu Lin did not come soon, she would be getting off work. She called Qu Lin and found out that Qu Lin had overslept.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m not feeling very well now. My head hurts a little. How about we change the time to tomorrow?¡± Qu Lin¡¯s voice was a little hoarse, and it was clear that there was indeed something wrong with her body.


    Yin Xun agreed. ¡°Sure. Have a good rest. 1 can spare some time any day. You don¡¯t have to worry.¡±


    ¡°Sigh, 1 originally wanted to give you a surprise, but it looks like it won¡¯t work now. I¡¯ll tell you directly. 1 have a list of Blue Fox investors.. Do you know that the Zhou family, the Wang family, the Liu family, and many others have all invested in Blue Fox?

 Chapter 538 - Chapter 538: Investing In Blue Fox

    Chapter 538: Investing In Blue Fox


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Qu Lin sounded a little worried. ¡°Although Brother Fang Yao alone is enough to challenge all of them in terms of financial resources, you also know that it¡¯s not enough to just compete in terms of money when it comes to managing a company. If they join forces to push you back, then Xintao will be in danger.¡±


    When she heard those names, Yin Xun immediately understood. It seemed that those who had a grudge against the Yin family had gone to invest in Blue Fox.


    She did not know if they were doing it to earn money or to destroy the Yin family.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I have a way to deal with them.¡± Yin Xun added in her heart, ¡®But 1 might have to trouble those two investors.¡¯


    Seeing that Yin Xun was not worried, Qu Lin was relieved. She said, ¡°Everything else is fine, but be careful of them trying to attack you with public opinion. These people can¡¯t win in a fair fight, so they like to play dirty.¡±


    ¡°Okay, i¡¯ll be careful.¡±


    The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.


    Yin Xun was not too worried about the Blue Fox investors. Now that Xintao was on the right track and she bought all the courier companies, they were not able to make a move against her.


    In fact, Yin Xun was more worried about Qu Lin¡¯s health.


    She opened the Xintao software and used Xintao to place an order for express delivery. She bought snacks and nutritional supplements for Qu Lin. Qu Lin was healthy when she called previously, but her voice was hoarse after such a short while. Yin Xun could guess that Qu Lin might not be able to come tomorrow.


    As the saying goes, illness comes and goes like a falling mountain. It was the peak season for colds. Anyone who caught a cold would not recover too easily. It seemed that Qu Lin would not be able to visit anytime soon.


    The next day, just as it was time to start work, Yin Xun had just finished giving Cheng She instructions when Chen Dong came over. The two of them happened to just miss each other.


    Before he came over, Chen Dong had already learned the details of the main leaders of Xintao. Therefore, even if the personnel did not tell him who the final interviewer was, he recognized Yin Xun when he saw her. He greeted her directly without hesitation, and Yin Xun raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°Since you¡¯re a former employee of Blue Fox, why did you come to Xintao?¡± Yin Xun asked despite knowing the answer. She wanted to hear what Chen Dong would say.


    Dong Zi replied as Si Fan had instructed him, ¡°Blue Fox has new leadership now and has fired many employees. I was one of them. When I saw your company recruiting, I came over to try my luck.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at him and continued to ask, ¡°I heard about this, but the ones who were fired were the less capable ones, right? But I¡¯ve seen your resume. With your ability, you should have been able to stay. Then you¡­¡± Yin Xun did not finish his sentence, but her meaning was obvious.


    Chen Dong explained, ¡°i actually had a dispute with President Si. i got on his bad side and was fired.¡±


    According to Si Fan¡¯s plan, as long as he said that his relationship with Si Fan was not good, at the very least, he would get to stay in Xintao. Perhaps, if he performed well, he would even receive the same treatment as Mi Jin.


    ¡°Yes, your explanation is very convincing,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°Do you know that Cheng She is also here?¡±


    Chen Dong was stunned for a moment before shaking his head. ¡°1 didn¡¯t know. Could it be that he got into a fight with President Si and was chased out?¡±


    Yin Xun had been watching Chen Dong¡¯s expression since the beginning. When she mentioned Cheng She, the surprise and confusion on Chen Dong¡¯s face did not seem to be fake.


    Could it be that Cheng She knew about Chen Dong, but Chen Dong did not know about Cheng She?


    ¡°Not quite.¡± Yin Xun stared into Chen Dong¡¯s eyes and said, ¡°He was sent here by Si Fan. Do you know what his goal is?¡±


    Chen Dong shook his head blankly. Although he did not know that Cheng She would be here, what did this have to do with him?


    When Yin Xun saw this, she smiled and said bluntly, ¡°He has already confessed everything. He told me that you¡¯re a spy.¡±


    Not expecting Yin Xun to say this, Chen Dong¡¯s body suddenly stiffened. He stammered and said, ¡°Um, I¡¯m not a spy. I¡¯m really just here to work.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s pointless even if you deny it. i already know your identity. Do you know why he betrayed you? This was all instigated by Si Fan. The spy Si Fan really wanted to plant was Cheng She. You are just a pawn to help Cheng She gain my trust.¡± Yin Xun bluntly told Chen Dong everything she knew.


    Chen Dong listened as Yin Xun stated the details. He did not expect Yin Xun to even know how much Si Fan had promised him. When they discussed all this, other than Si Fan, Cheng She was the only one by their side.


    Now, he fully believed that he had been betrayed by Cheng She, but he did not know if it was part of Si Fan¡¯s plan. For a moment, he had mixed feelings. Although he was angry, he could not show it in front of Yin Xun..

 Chapter 539 - Chapter 539: Reverse Spy

    Chapter 539: Reverse Spy


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Chen Dong wanted to call Cheng She and Si Fan immediately to confirm what was going on.


    Since he was asked to be a spy, why did they betray him? Selling him out was one thing, but did the money he promised still count? He had only agreed to this because of that sum of money.


    ¡°Since you already know, I presume you won¡¯t let me stay any longer.¡± Chen Dong frowned and turned around to leave.


    ¡°Wait!¡± Yin Xun stopped him. ¡°If I just wanted to be rid of you, I could have just failed your interview. I won¡¯t make you go on a needless trip.¡±


    ¡°Are you planning to keep me here?¡± Chen Dong asked in surprise.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s unrealistic to keep you here. After all, Cheng She has already told me that you¡¯re a spy sent by Si Fan. If you stay, Si Fan will only get suspicious. 1 called you over today to make a deal with you. This is also why 1 asked Mi Jin to inform the human resources and not tell them myself. Si Fan is probably monitoring you.¡±


    ¡°What kind of deal?¡± Chen Dong was puzzled.


    ¡°Everyone works for money, so 1 can understand why you would do such a thing. But as far as 1 know, according to Si Fan¡¯s personality, he won¡¯t pay you all the money he promised. If you don¡¯t believe me, you should call Si Fan and ask him.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no need for that. Since my identity has been exposed, it means that I¡¯m useless to him. Back then, he promised me that as long as I successfully went undercover, he would give me the money. If he sold me out, it means the money is gone.¡± Chen Dong interrupted Yin Xun.


    He had followed Si Fan for many years and had long understood the guy¡¯s personality. Si Fan was an extremely selfish person who prioritized his own interests.


    If he was really that generous, he would not have treated his employees so harshly. He even refused to pay them overtime.


    Chen Dong had never trusted Si Fan. He had only trusted Cheng She. Cheng She had assured him that everything was prepared; that was why he agreed.


    From the looks of it, the person he trusted the most was the first to betray him. As expected, the crows all around the world are equally black-hearted. Si Fan was not a foul person, and the assistant beside him was not good either.


    He was a little angry, but he knew that he could only blame himself for being greedy. For a moment, Chen Dong did not know if he should be upset.


    ¡°You know Si Fan quite well.¡± Yin Xun smiled faintly. ¡°The deal I¡¯m proposing is for you to continue working at Blue Fox. However, you should lower your salary. 1¡¯11 make up for the difference. In addition, I¡¯ll give you a sum of money as a bonus. I¡¯m not like Si Fan who would be stingy over such a small amount of money. Money is the one thing 1 don¡¯t lack. As for the excuse for returning, I think you can think of it yourself. If they can sell you out, you should be able to work for me too. How about that?¡±


    Chen Dong¡¯s eyes widened in shock. Yin Xun wanted to play a game of spies, leaving behind an undercover agent. On the surface, she chased away an enemy spy, but in fact, she wanted him to go back and be her spy! Did that mean he was hired by Yin Xun indirectly?


    ¡°I¡­ Does this count as being hired by you?¡± Chen Dong asked in a daze.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°More or less, but there¡¯s a time limit. Help me keep an eye on Blue Fox for two years and watch the situation over there. After two years, as long as you don¡¯t tell anyone about this, you can leave and go wherever you want. You can write back to me if you want to. You¡¯re a talent. My door is always open to talents. Of course, you can refuse. If you don¡¯t like this, you can leave now.¡±


    Si Fan planted someone beside her so that he could immediately know what was going on at Xintao. This was a good idea. Previously, she did not try this because she never found the right time or the right person. Now that such a good opportunity was in front of her, it would be a waste not to use it.


    As for whether it would succeed or not, that did not matter.


    ¡°I agree! Don¡¯t worry, i know what to say.¡± Chen Dong agreed readily and assured Yin Xun.


    Only a fool would turn down such good conditions. Moreover, Si Fan had tricked him. Now that he had the chance, he naturally had to take revenge.


    ¡°Alright, since that¡¯s the case, go look for Si Fan today. The longer you delay, the more likely they will suspect you.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Yin Xun was a woman of her word. Seeing that Chen Dong had agreed, she went straight to the finance department and gave Chen Dong a chunk of money. She did not even bother to write a receipt. It was the first time the two of them met, but she did not bother to make any insurance..

 Chapter 540 - Chapter 540: Spies In Position On Both Sides

    Chapter 540: Spies In Position On Both Sides


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This made Chen Dong feel a little uneasy. It almost felt like the money was burning him. ¡°President Yin, aren¡¯t you going to sign a contract with me or make me swear an oath? What if 1 take the money and don¡¯t do anything?¡±


    Yin Xun said calmly, ¡°It¡¯s okay. If you don¡¯t keep your word, I have plenty of ways to ruin your reputation and make you unable to stay in this industry.¡±


    Chen Dong,¡±¡­¡±


    How could Yin Xun say such terrifying words in a calm tone?


    He suddenly thought of Mi Jin. Back then, Mi Jin had been framed by Si Fan with despicable methods. He was worried that if he did not do well, he would be treated like this by Yin Xun.


    As expected, bosses had impure hearts, even if they were female bosses. Chen Dong complained in his heart.


    The money in his hand felt even hotter, but he had already promised Yin Xun. If he put the money down now, it might be even worse. Chen Dong had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.


    Chen Dong took action very quickly. According to his agreement with Yin Xun, he first went home after leaving Xintao and deposited the money Yin Xun had given him. Then, he went straight to Blue Fox.


    When Si Fan saw him, a trace of discomfort flashed across his eyes, but he pretended not to know anything and asked him, ¡°Didn¡¯t 1 ask you to be a spy? If you come back now, Yin Xun will misunderstand our relationship!¡±


    ¡°President Si, why did Assistant Cheng go to Xintao too? He even betrayed me. After Yin Xun found out my identity, she chased me out!¡± Chen Dong planned to use sincerity to dispel Si Fan¡¯s doubts and directly told him the reason why he came back.


    ¡°What? Assistant Cheng went to Xintao? 1 should have known, I always knew he had thoughts of jumping ship. I didn¡¯t expect him to act so quickly!¡± Si Fan said in surprise. It looked like he really did not know about this. ¡°It¡¯s my fault for trusting him too much. We didn¡¯t shut him out when we were discussing matters, so he knew everything. In that case, you can¡¯t be blamed. If you fail, so be it.¡±


    Si Fan¡¯s expression looked too sincere. Chen Dong sneered in his heart. Si Fan was actually pretending. If Yin Xun had not told him the details and proved that Si Fan had instructed Cheng She to betray him, he would have been deceived by Si Fan again.


    ¡°Since the mistake this time is not my fault, can you give me the rest of the money?¡± Although he knew in his heart that Si Fan would definitely refuse, Chen Dong still tried to ask for it.


    At the very least, he had to let Si Fan know that he still cared about the money.


    As he expected, Si Fan refused immediately. ¡°It¡¯s already good enough that I¡¯m not faulting you for not failing the mission. You still have the cheek to ask for money?! Logically speaking, you should return the deposit 1 gave you previously. However, on account of Cheng She betraying you, we¡¯ll leave it at this.¡±


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, Chen Dong secretly cursed Si Fan in his heart. It seemed that agreeing to Yin Xun¡¯s conditions was indeed the right decision. He had long disliked Si Fan. In any case, he did not have to worry about his salary now. He could use this opportunity to stab Si Fan in the back.


    ¡°President Si, I did everything according to your request from the start. I didn¡¯t expect to be sold out by Assistant Cheng. Not only did Yin Xun chase me out, but she even threatened to make me unable to find work in this field. 1 have nowhere else to go. Do you think 1 can return to Blue Fox?¡± Chen Dong asked ingratiatingly.


    Si Fan looked at him coldly. Just as he was about to refuse, he heard Chen Dong beg, ¡°President Si, you know what I¡¯m capable of. As long as you can let me come back, I¡¯m willing to lower my salary requirements. Now that Xintao has gotten bigger, Yin Xun is using her status to suppress me. Other companies are afraid of the Yin family¡¯s background and won¡¯t dare to take me. Only you can stand up to her. 1 can only rely on you!¡±


    This flattery was perfect. Si Fan liked to hear others praise him for being better than Yin Xun. Moreover, the fact that Chen Dong was willing to lower his salary really moved him.


    Chen Dong was watching Si Fan¡¯s reaction closely. Now that he seemed to be showing signs of loosening up, he continued, ¡°President Si, although Blue Fox was founded by you, it has now fallen into the hands of others. I¡¯m sure you¡¯re unsatisfied with this. Assistant Cheng has left and there¡¯s no one I can trust. I have nowhere to go and can only rely on you, so you don¡¯t have to worry that 1¡¯11 betray you like Assistant Cheng. I¡¯m sure you need a helper by your side now. I think 1 can help you fill the place of Assistant Cheng.¡±


    Under Chen Dong¡¯s constant begging and persuasion, Si Fan was finally convinced. He agreed to the condition of lowering the salary to let Chen Dong return to Blue Fox. The new President, Le An, originally had some concerns, but since it was a request from Si Fan, it was not good to reject him, so Chen Dong was allowed to stay.


    On this side, Chen Dong had successfully stayed in Blue Fox and found an opportunity to report to Yin Xun. On the other side, Si Fan had also secretly contacted Cheng She to inquire about the situation..

 Chapter 541 - Chapter 541: Trusting The Spy

    Chapter 541: Trusting The Spy


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Yin Xun and Chen Dong completed the transaction, she called Cheng She over. After confirming that he had completed the employment procedures, she handed him a document.


    ¡°This is the project information. It contains the project plan and some data, as well as information on the number of people in the team.¡±


    Yin Xun gestured for him to sit down. ¡°Take a look first. Ask me if there¡¯s anything you don¡¯t understand. After all, although this project is independent right now, it will merge with Xintao after it¡¯s successful. The biggest problem now is that the technology isn¡¯t very mature. In addition, no one has done something like this before, so there are no examples to follow. It¡¯s rather difficult, so 1 need you to put your mind to it.¡±


    Cheng She looked at the thick document in his hand and was speechless.


    With such detailed information, it seemed that Yin Xun had really entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. However, when would he be able to finish reading so much content? Why did he suddenly feel like he was going to continue working like a slave in another place?


    Seeing that Yin Xun was not guarding against him at all, he felt a little defeated. She already knew that he was an undercover agent sent by Si Fan. At the very least, she should be a little wary and on guard against him!


    However, Yin Xun was talking to him as if he was an ordinary employee. For a moment, he felt as though he was really an employee of Xintao.


    He looked down at the information. There was too much to read. He picked the part about the project plan and roughly scanned it. He was getting more and more shocked.


    Initially, when Yin Xun told him that the project he was given was a collaboration with the mapping company, he thought that it would just be an ordinary map. At that time, he was puzzled about the development prospects of a map like this.


    There were many map companies, and not many people used them regularly. This was because the data was not detailed and was not accurate. It was better to ask passers-by for directions than to follow a map.


    It had crossed his mind that the plan was just an excuse to brush away the spy.


    Unexpectedly, the truth was not what he had imagined. This plan was nothing like what he expected. Yin Xun was making a map for a completely different project. Looking at this plan, it seemed that the future prospects were very good!


    According to Yin Xun, she wanted to make a map with accurate data first, then add a voice navigation function so that ordinary users could use it. Even if they went to an unknown city, they did not have to worry about getting lost.


    Apart from that, she also planned to add an online taxi function to the map. There would be omnidirectional surveillance in the car, and the car would have a GPS system to ensure the safety of the passengers and driver.


    Cheng She was already surprised by the previous project, but when he saw the plans for online taxis, he was entirely convinced by Yin Xun¡¯s business acumen.


    Although this information did not specify how the project was related to Xintao, he could vaguely guess through his deduction. He could already see the huge business opportunity for Xintao.


    He had to admit that Yin Xun¡¯s business acumen was better than Si Fan¡¯s. Perhaps, in Yin Xun¡¯s eyes, Si Fan was not a serious opponent at all. Otherwise, she would not have kept a spy like him around.


    However, in Si Fan¡¯s eyes, Yin Xun was his biggest opponent. All he thought about every day was how to defeat Yin Xun.


    Even though he no longer had any real power in Blue Fox, the first thing he did was not to try seizing back control, but to deal with Yin Xun first. The difference in their ideologies was obvious.


    Cheng She stared at the information in his hand in a daze. Yin Xun waited for him for a long time. Seeing that he did not react at all, she called out to him and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Is there something you don¡¯t understand?¡±


    Cheng She came back to his senses and said, ¡°No, it is written very clearly in the document. I have no questions at the moment. But¡­¡± He looked at Yin Xun with a complicated expression. ¡°President Yin, this is such an important project. Are you really going to give me full authority to handle it?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Didn¡¯t 1 tell you multiple times already? The company doesn¡¯t have enough manpower now, and you¡¯re an outstanding person. Capable people should take on more responsibility. It¡¯s most suitable for you to do it. Besides, 1 know you¡¯re an undercover agent. I¡¯m not worried about you leaking this project to Si Fan, so you can go full steam ahead.¡±


    ¡°But what about the people working on this project?¡± Cheng Shen flipped to the list of members of the project, but it was empty.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°This is for you to decide. Coincidentally, the company has recruited quite a number of Blue Fox employees. I think you should be familiar with all of them. You can choose suitable employees from that group to follow you on this project. 1 originally wanted to choose people myself, but considering that it will be more efficient if you lead a team of familiar faces, i¡¯ll give you this benefit.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±

    Yin Xun¡¯s actions could be described as heart-wrenching. She even dared to assign Blue Fox employees to him when she knew that he was an undercover agent. She was really not afraid that he would do anything that could hurt her company.


    This was not a bad thing for Cheng She, but he felt that he was betraying Yin Xun¡¯s trust. He could not help but ask, ¡°President Yin, do you really feel assured to hand the project to me? Are you really okay with me leading Blue Fox employees? What if, theoretically speaking, the secret of the project is leaked?¡±


    Seeing Cheng She like this, Yin Xun was rather amused. Cheng Shen was clearly an undercover agent, but he seemed sincerely worried about the safety of the project.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. I¡¯m not restricting you. You can do whatever you want,¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    Cheng She was a little confused. Was this project something so casual?


    ¡°By the way, what¡¯s Si Fan¡¯s current situation?¡± Yin Xun suddenly asked.


    Cheng She said without hesitation, ¡°He¡¯s completely excluded by the management team now. He¡¯s not even allowed to attend meetings. He only has a title, but he doesn¡¯t have any power.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. It was indeed as what she knew. Therefore, Si Fan was currently not a threat. She just needed to pay attention to the newly appointed president.


    She heard that the newly appointed president had a strong background and was very capable. It was not something that someone of Si Fan¡¯s level could compare to. It seemed like she had to be careful in the future and not be careless.


    Speaking of which, she should be thanking Si Fan for sending her two capable people at such a critical moment.


    One of them would be her reliable assistant, while the other would help her keep an eye on Blue Fox¡¯s movements. The battle had yet to begin, but she was already given such a huge gift. She almost felt embarrassed.


    ¡°Cheng She, you must not let Si Fan down. Work hard in the future and strive to achieve Si Fan¡¯s goal as soon as possible.¡± Yin Xun suddenly became serious and reminded Cheng She.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    Why did these words sound so sarcastic?!


    Taking over a new project was not an easy task. Before the work began, Cheng She returned to his office and pored over the information.


    He had to understand this project in detail to know what to do next.


    As for the research project plan, he chose a few capable employees from Blue Fox and started assigning jobs. He was busy for the entire day and did not even notice that it was time to get off work.


    In the past, when he was at Blue Fox, he could not freely leave after work. Regardless of whether the employees had completed their tasks or not, they had to leave a little later. Only then could he report to Si Fan that everyone was working hard.


    If someone left early, they would definitely be targeted by Si Fan in the future.


    The employees of Blue Fox were already used to working overtime, so when they came to Xintao, they did not notice when it was time to get off work.


    Just as Cheng She was discussing work with the employees, Yin Xun suddenly came over. Everyone stood up and greeted Yin Xun.


    ¡°President Yin, do you have any instructions?¡± Cheng She asked.


    Yin Xun looked at them and said in surprise, ¡°It¡¯s already time to get off work. Why aren¡¯t you leaving yet?¡±


    It was indeed time to leave. Yin Xun had been delayed because she had a lot of things to do today. Almost all the other employees had left. Just as she was about to leave, she heard voices in the office.


    She came over to take a look, not expecting that Cheng She was still around.


    Cheng She looked at the time blankly and asked, ¡°Can we leave already? The work hours have only just ended.¡±


    ¡°Why can¡¯t you leave when it¡¯s time to get off work?¡± This time, it was Yin Xun¡¯s turn to be puzzled. ¡°But if you want to work overtime, you can. It¡¯s not my concern. Just keep track of the time you work overtime. Go and tell the department in charge. They will pay you overtime.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun left without waiting for Cheng She¡¯s answer.


    She did not ask about Cheng She¡¯s work. Since she had already handed the project to Cheng She, she only needed to control the general direction and leave the rest of the decisions to Cheng She.


    As for whether Cheng She wanted to work overtime or not, that was his business. Yin Xun would not force him.


    When Yin Xun left, the few people in the office were still in a daze. They did not expect to be personally reminded by the president to get off work.


    ¡°Assistant Cheng¡­ No, Manager Cheng. Since President Yin asked us to clock out, should we leave?¡±


    Right now, Cheng She was Yin Xun¡¯s assistant and also the person in charge of the project. He was at the level of a manager. The employee who spoke looked at Cheng She with unconcealed envy.


    Cheng She was indeed a capable man. With his status, he jumped ship from Blue Fox to a competing company and still managed to get an important position in Yin Xun¡¯s company. It was truly enviable..

 Chapter 543 - Chapter 543: Report To Si Fan

    Chapter 543: Report To Si Fan


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Another employee said, ¡°The other employees have all left. Before 1 came here, I heard that Xintao doesn¡¯t force their employees to work overtime, so we should be able to get off work now. President Yin should not mind¡­¡±


    They were used to being oppressed by Si Fan in Blue Fox. When they met an open-minded leader like Yin Xun, they suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. They wanted to get off work, but they were still a little worried.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. Make sure to come on time tomorrow. We¡¯ll continue to discuss what to do next,¡± Cheng She said.


    He thought about how he had been squeezed dry by Si Fan in Blue Fox for so many years. His salary had never increased and he had never received overtime pay. However, he had only worked in Xintao for a day and Yin Xun actually said that he could get overtime pay. He suddenly felt a weird twinge in his heart. From the looks of it, it was not a bad decision to come to Xintao.


    When the other employees heard that they could get off work, they were visibly happy.


    Cheng She returned home, and Si Fan only called him after dinner.


    ¡°Cheng She, today is your first day at Xintao. How¡¯s the situation?¡± Si Fan asked.


    Cheng She thought for a few seconds and said, ¡°Yin Xun handed a project to me. I¡¯m in charge of it now. I even have the authority to choose the people working on it. Other than that, she also asked me to be her assistant.¡±


    ¡°If you become Yin Xun¡¯s assistant, won¡¯t you be able to learn many company secrets?¡± Si Fan was very pleased with this result. He said proudly, ¡°My plan was great, as expected. Letting you sell out Dong Zi and pretend to be a victim was the perfect way to gain Yin Xun¡¯s trust. A woman is always a woman. She¡¯s easily swayed by her emotions. If Mi Jin can win her trust, she must think that everyone who has suffered like Mi Jin will sincerely submit to her. How stupid.¡±


    Cheng She said, ¡°It¡¯s my first day. Although Yin Xun handed a project to me, it doesn¡¯t mean that she trusts me. As for the company¡¯s secrets, 1 don¡¯t think I can come into contact with them right now. Perhaps she will test me again.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, she¡¯s not that smart. If she really suspects you, she wouldn¡¯t let you be in charge of an entire project,¡± Si Fan said nonchalantly.


    Facing Si Fan¡¯s arrogance, Cheng She did not continue speaking. He could not tell Si Fan that his facade had already been seen through by Yin Xun.


    With Si Fan¡¯s temper, he would definitely not let him off easily if he found out. Si Fan might even suspect that he had exposed his identity of his own free will. Since Si Fan believed that he had successfully entered Xintao as a spy, he might as well follow his wishes.


    Si Fan continued to ask, ¡°What project did she give you?¡±


    Cheng Shen answered truthfully, ¡°It¡¯s a project with a mapping company. Yin Xun wants her own mapping system.¡±


    Yin Xun had already said that he could tell Si Fan about this matter, so he did not feel any psychological pressure when he said it. As for the specific details, if Si Fan did not ask, there was no need for him to say more.


    Si Fan was a little surprised. He scoffed, ¡°Does Yin Xun think that Xintao is successful enough that she¡¯s arrogant enough to get involved in other fields? She even wants to make maps. What¡¯s the connection between maps and Xintao? These two completely unrelated projects will only waste money and energy in the end. They¡¯re useless. A while ago, I actually thought she was still a woman with some ability. Now, it looks like she¡¯s the same as those dreamers. She can¡¯t even keep her attention on one thing. Nothing good will come of people like that.¡±


    Listening to Si Fan¡¯s mocking, Cheng She did not know how to reply.


    Si Fan looked down on everyone, especially women. Now, Si Fan was even more arrogant and conceited than before. Perhaps thinking that he had suffered too many blows from Yin Xun in the past, he was already mocking her before understanding what she was doing. If he underestimated his opponents like this, he would definitely suffer in the future.


    Although Cheng She did not know exactly why Yin Xun wanted to cross over to a seemingly fruitless and strenuous business field, he could sense that Yin Xun was planning something huge.


    ¡°President Si, 1 don¡¯t think Yin Xun is as pathetic as you say. She¡¯s quite business-minded. It¡¯s better to be careful¡­¡± After thinking about it, he gave Si Fan a reminder.


    When Si Fan heard him speaking up for Yin Xun, his voice immediately deepened. He snorted coldly and said, ¡°Why? Now that you¡¯re her employee, you¡¯re starting to speak up for her? Don¡¯t forget who your real boss is. Don¡¯t forget what you promised me before you left Blue Fox.


    ¡°I advise you not to forget your original intention. You¡¯ve been with me for so many years, so you should know what 1 can do. If you dare to betray me, 1¡¯11 squash you as easily as crushing an ant..¡±

    Chapter 544: Start Taking Action


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Cheng She was stunned. He did not expect Si Fan to become so sensitive now. He actually treated his reminder as a sign of betrayal.


    Since that was the case, he would not say anything else.


    Cheng She could not help but feel curious. If the other party was Yin Xun, what would she say to him? Although he did not know Yin Xun very well now, after interacting with her today, he felt that Yin Xun would not be so ruthless as to threaten her employees.


    He had not even realized it himself. After just interacting with Yin Xun for a day, his impression of her was already much better than Si Fan¡¯s.


    Perhaps knowing that his words were a little harsh, Si Fan suddenly softened his tone and said, ¡°Cheng She, you¡¯re a smart person. I think you should know what the best choice is. Back then, I established Blue Fox by relying on my own hard work. As for Yin Xun, she relied on her family¡¯s power.¡±


    ¡°Yin Xun is Yin Mo¡¯s biological sister. Their IQs shouldn¡¯t be too different. Look at how Yin Mo has been played by me. Yin Xun isn¡¯t any better. Although the Yin family is rich, they can¡¯t let Yin Xun squander their wealth. Besides, aside from dealing with Xintao, the Yin family won¡¯t have an easy time either. If anything happens to Xintao, Yin Xun will be finished.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡®If Yin Xun is that weak, how did you lose to Yin Xun so many times?¡¯ Cheng She complained in his heart, but he did not dare to say it out loud.


    He just wanted to remind Si Fan to be more cautious of Yin Xun. He did not expect Si Fan to lecture him so much and even threaten him.


    Forget it. He would never say such things again. He would say whatever Si Fan wanted to hear. He would just be a simple tool.


    Cheng She did not want to continue communicating with Si Fan. He asked, ¡°President Si, now that I¡¯ve successfully gone undercover, what should I do next? Should I help Yin Xun do the project well or destroy it?¡±


    ¡°You can help her. Le An completely ignores my existence now and even says that I¡¯m a burden to the company. Since he looks down on me so much, I have to make him fall even harder than 1 did back then. After that, I¡¯ll destroy Xintao so that I can regain my power.¡±


    Cheng She did not dare to say anything else. The more he spoke, the more mistakes he would make. He only agreed shortly. ¡°Okay.¡±


    Si Fan thought for a moment and added, ¡°Now that Le An has gathered several companies for investments, they must have already thought of a way to deal with Xintao. If Yin Xun doesn¡¯t do anything, Xintao will be close to bankruptcy.¡±


    ¡°Okay¡­ Huh?¡± Cheng She was about to agree when he suddenly realized what Si Fan was talking about. ¡°Bankruptcy? What is their plan?¡±


    ¡°They plan to start with express delivery. Delivery is the lifeline of a shopping website. If the delivery system collapses, the shopping website will be ruined. I heard that the management has already contacted the CEOs of those delivery companies. As for when they¡¯ll take action, I didn¡¯t get any news yet. What do you think? That woman Yin Xun doesn¡¯t know about this at all, right? Like I said, she¡¯s useless. You can remind her appropriately so that Xintao won¡¯t go bankrupt before I get my power back. That would be disadvantageous to me.¡±


    Upon hearing this news, Cheng She was a little worried. Although he had just started working at Xintao, he unexpectedly did not want Xintao to be targeted by Blue Fox.


    Seeing that Si Fan had asked him to remind Yin Xun, he agreed happily. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll do as you say.¡±


    ¡°Remember to tell me how Yin Xun plans to deal with this matter. Only by having information on both sides can I better stoke the fire between them.¡± Si Fan smiled smugly. ¡°That¡¯s all, then. In the future, only contact me when there are any important changes. The rest of the time, I¡¯ll initiate the contact. The timing will be the same as today.¡±


    ¡°But what if Xintao can¡¯t deal with this issue?¡± Cheng She asked worriedly.


    Si Fan said, ¡°If she can¡¯t even deal with such a small matter, it only proves that Yin Xun is not worthy of being my opponent. In the future, I¡¯ll think of another way to pull Le An down from the position of president.¡±


    ¡°President Si is amazing!¡± Cheng Shi quickly praised him.


    Si Fan liked to hear others praise him. He was pleased and said in satisfaction, ¡°Yes, you just have to listen to me. If you follow me, you will definitely make a fortune in the end. Alright, you can get some rest. Continue to keep an eye on Xintao for me tomorrow.¡± After saying that, he planned to hang up.


    ¡°Wait a minute, President Si!¡± Cheng She looked up at the clock. It was the time he usually got off work at Blue Fox. No wonder Si Fan chose to contact him at this time.


    He deliberated over his words and said, ¡°Um, President Si, actually, you can contact me earlier since we don¡¯t have to work overtime at Xintao..¡±

 Chapter 545 - Chapter 545: The Spy Brings News

    Chapter 545: The Spy Brings News


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You¡¯re not working overtime?¡± Si Fan sounded surprised.


    Cheng She said, ¡°That¡¯s right. Yin Xun even took the initiative to remind me to get off work on time today. I only left a little after working hours, and there were almost no people left in the office. Oh, and Yin Xun also said that if I worked overtime, I could report it to the human resources department and get overtime pay.¡±


    ¡°Hmph.¡± Si Fan snorted coldly and said, ¡°She doesn¡¯t even know how to make full use of the employees¡¯ value. Yin Xun is such a fool. To think that she pays overtime. Wouldn¡¯t everyone end up working overtime for the extra pay? Eventually, their work efficiency won¡¯t be great and the company will lose their profits. The gains won¡¯t make up for the losses. We should have the employees agree to work overtime for free.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    His original intention was to provoke Si Fan into realizing that it was wrong to force employees to work overtime for free.


    He did not expect that Si Fan¡¯s character would live up to its name. He actually believed that Yin Xun, who was good to her employees, was being stupid.


    Cheng She laughed bitterly in his heart. He did not know if Yin Xun was stupid or not, nor did he know if the employees of Xintao were actually working hard. However, he knew the employees of Blue Fox. Because they did not get overtime pay, no one was willing to work hard. They were just stalling time in the office.


    In order to highlight that they were working overtime, some employees did not finish their tasks early on and delayed until night to start their work.


    However, it was obvious that bringing this up would not achieve anything. It was no wonder that the employees who left Blue Fox previously ail went to Xintao.


    Si Fan rammed in a few more reminders and after Cheng She repeatedly expressed his loyalty, the call was ended.


    After he hung up, Cheng Shi looked at the phone in his hand with the screen turned off and sighed helplessly.


    In reality, he had long wanted to resign from Blue Fox and go to Xintao to look for a job. However, he was worried that Si Fan would take revenge on him, so he never made the leap.


    Now, he finally had a chance to leave Blue Fox. However, he was currently Blue Fox¡¯s spy. Si Fan¡¯s attitude made it very clear just now. Even if he went to Xintao now, he could forget about his freedom. He still had to continue working for Si Fan.


    Right now, he was sandwiched between Xintao and Blue Fox. It was fine for now since he only reported some unimportant things. However, what should he do in the future?


    Yin Xun put him in charge of a project. Could it be that he had to provide Si Fan with information every day? If one day Yin Xun no longer needed him and announced to the public that he was a spy, his career would be ruined.


    As for Si Fan, it was clear from his attitude toward Zhu Chuan back then that he did not care about his employees. It was already considered merciful if he did not kick you when you were down.


    Cheng She did not know how long this kind of life would last. He sighed deeply again and could not help but feel a little anxious.


    However, there was no use in being worried. He could not fight against Si Fan, so he could only be obedient.


    He thought about what Si Fan had just said. Regardless of whether Blue Fox would really attack the express delivery, he had to inform Yin Xun as soon as possible so that Yin Xun could take precautions in advance.


    As soon as he dialed the number, Cheng She suddenly thought of a problem. How should he tell Yin Xun about this tactfully?


    He could not just say that Si Fan had informed him. If Yin Xun asked about how he knew this, how would he explain?


    He planned to stop the call and call Yin Xun after he thought of an excuse. Just as he was about to hang up, the call was picked up.


    ¡°Cheng She, is there anything wrong for you to be calling at this time?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.


    Previously, when Cheng She was talking to Yin Xun, he did not notice that Yin Xun¡¯s voice sounded so pleasant.


    The first words Yin Xun said were not to blame him for calling so late at night but to ask if he had any difficulties.


    Cheng She instantly felt touched. If this was Si Fan, he would be scolding him first before asking what the matter was. This was the difference between the bosses!


    However, he had not thought of what to say, and he stuttered as he said, ¡°Thing is¡­ President Yin, I heard that¡­ No, when I got off work, I saw the Vice President of Blue Fox. He seemed to be contacting the bosses of a few express delivery companies. It seems he wants to join forces to deal with Xintao Express and Lechang Express. I thought it seemed pretty serious, so I wanted to tell you, but I¡¯m not very sure¡­¡±


    Hearing Cheng stuttering as he tried to find an excuse to pass on information, Yin Xun immediately found it funny. This roundabout way of talking made it too obvious. He was clearly afraid that she would realize that he was communicating with Si Fan.


    Si Fan must have been worried that Xintao would be oppressed by Blue Fox now. If that happened, he would not be able to show off in the future. That was likely why he asked Cheng She to inform her..

 Chapter 546 - Chapter 546:100% Control

    Chapter 546:100% Control


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I already know about this, but thank you anyway.¡±


    Cheng She was surprised. ¡°You knew?¡±


    Even Si Fan had just found out about this. I low did Yin Xun know? However, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed that this no longer had anything to do with him. He did not have to feel guilty anymore.


    ¡°This matter is not a secret. Those express delivery companies have already started to group together to ostracize Xintao Express. As long as a Xintao affiliate sends a delivery, no matter how many packages there are, they will be calculated according to the original price. Those merchants have been complaining about this issue for the past two days. I¡¯m planning to deal with it too,¡± Yin Xun explained.


    Under normal circumstances, because merchants had to send out a large number of goods, courier stations would give them a much cheaper rate. In addition, they would be charged differently than ordinary users. The plan was to take the route of low profits and high sales.


    Now, however, Xintao merchants were not getting any discounts. They were all charged with the original price, causing the merchants to lose a lot of profit in terms of delivery fees alone.


    However, this kind of behavior was still legal. The merchants were angry, but there was nothing they could do. Those express delivery companies were taking advantage of the loopholes in the law. They could pressure Xintao Express and also suppress Xintao merchants. They felt that this was killing two birds with one stone.


    Yin Xun had never told anyone about her acquisition of Lechang. Other than Fang Yao, no one else knew.


    Therefore, these people assumed that Xintao only had one express delivery. As long as they could rope in Lechang too, Xintao would only have one express delivery to use.


    At that time, all the merchants in Xintao would use Xintao Express to deliver goods. Not to mention the price, just the sheer number of deliveries would cause it to collapse.


    Once the delivery chain was broken, the Xintao website would naturally be finished.


    ¡°They are being too ruthless. Delivery is essentially the lifeline of a shopping website. How are you going to deal with this?¡± When Si Fan first told him about this matter, he did not know what methods Blue Fox would use to deal with Xintao, so he was only a little worried but did not think too much about it.


    Now that he heard Yin Xun talk about the details, he realized that this issue was more serious than he had thought.


    The plan was already considered commercial bullying, but those courier companies were all controlled by the Le Family, and Le An was the CEO of the old Le Corporation. He could make those courier companies do whatever he wanted with just a word.


    This was also why Le An successfully became the new President of Blue Fox. It was mainly because of his amazing background. Si Fan¡¯s status could not compare to him at all.


    However, as soon as the words left his mouth, Cheng She suddenly realized that it was inappropriate for him to ask about this. He was an undercover agent sent by Si Fan. This could be seen as stealing information.


    In order to avoid awkwardness, he quickly apologized. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, President Yin. I¡¯m not trying to dig out any information. Just pretend that I didn¡¯t say anything.¡±


    Yin Xun was amused by Cheng She¡¯s cautiousness. She said indifferently, ¡°It¡¯s okay. You¡¯re my assistant. It¡¯s fine to tell you about this. The price of other delivery companies has increased indirectly. When you go to the company tomorrow, I need you to help me make an announcement asking the Xintao merchants to choose Lechang Express. As for Xintao Express, just leave it as it is for now.¡±


    ¡°Are you saying that all the merchants in Xintao will use Lechang? Putting aside whether Lechang will be bought over in the future, how can they handle the huge number of deliveries alone?¡± Cheng She asked worriedly.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. I¡¯ve already upgraded the delivery system a long time ago. Even if the quantity is doubled now, Lechang can still handle it. In the future, Xintao merchants won¡¯t have to use other express delivery companies to deliver their goods anymore. There¡¯s another benefit to using Lechang¡ªtheir rates are low.¡±


    ¡°So you¡¯re cutting ties with other delivery companies? But since they already came up with a plan to oppose you, they definitely won¡¯t let you use Lechang in peace. I¡¯m guessing they might even rope in Lechang in the future. When the time comes, Xintao won¡¯t be able to provide normal delivery.¡± Cheng She had some concerns about this.


    ¡°Lechang won¡¯t be roped in by them,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. ¡°I currently have 100% control over Lechang.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡®Alright, let¡¯s pretend I didn¡¯t say anything just now.¡¯


    Yin Xun was indeed the eldest daughter of the Yin family. Not only did she have a business mind, but she was also insanely wealthy. This time, it was as if she had predicted the danger in advance. Otherwise, which company President would buy an entire delivery company?


    Cheng She could not help but start to admire Yin Xun. If Si Fan faced such a situation, how would he resolve it? There was no need to think. Si Fan would definitely shout at him to come up with a solution. Yin Xun, however, had thought of a solution in advance.


    No wonder Si Fan lost to Yin Xun. From the looks of it, Si Fan¡¯s defeat was not unjust..

 Chapter 547 - Chapter 547: The Issue With Yin Mo

    Chapter 547: The Issue With Yin Mo


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After recovering from his shock, Cheng She suddenly thought of another problem. He deliberated over his words before he asked, ¡°President Yin, you¡¯re telling me such an important matter. Aren¡¯t you worried?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s there to worry about? Even if you don¡¯t say anything about it, people will find out sooner or later. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve never forgotten your identity as a spy, so if there¡¯s anything truly important, I¡¯ll hide it from you.¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    Could he take Yin Xun¡¯s words as respect for his status?


    ¡°By the way,¡± Yin Xun continued, ¡°I¡¯m aware that Si Fan asked you to tell me about this. 1 also know that his goal is to let Xintao and Blue Fox fight on even grounds so that both sides will suffer. In the future, if Si Fan asks you to send me any more messages, just tell me directly. There¡¯s no need to beat around the bush and find excuses. Speaking of which, it¡¯s a good thing that someone can provide me with information about Blue Fox.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    He suddenly felt that Si Fan was being a fool. He thought that he was in control of the entire situation, but in fact, he had long been seen through by Yin Xun and was being used in return.


    Cheng She could already imagine what it would be like if Si Fan found out about this in the future. His plans had been discovered by Yin Xun from the beginning and Yin Xun was happily accepting Si Fan¡¯s reminders. If he found out, there would definitely be another bunch of things being smashed and people getting hit.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Although I came from Blue Fox, I¡¯m now an employee of Xintao. No matter what happens, I¡¯ll do my best for the project I¡¯m in charge of,¡± Cheng She said this from the bottom of his heart.


    He did not directly reply to Yin Xun¡¯s comments, but these words directly expressed his position and sincerity.


    After Cheng She finished speaking, he realized how cheesy his words were. Before Yin Xun could reply, he already felt embarrassed.


    He laughed awkwardly and tried to compliment Yin Xun to divert his attention. ¡°President Yin, you are very sensitive to the situation of the market. I didn¡¯t expect you to sense that there would be a problem so early on. You¡¯re amazing.¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly as she accepted Cheng She¡¯s praise graciously. ¡°Of course. Otherwise, how could Xintao still be successful after Si Fan used so many schemes and plots? The business world is like a battlefield. If you don¡¯t have a brain, you might be eaten alive one day.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Cheng She was speechless.


    He had been involved in all the schemes that Si Fan had done in the past. Now that he heard Yin Xun say this, it was like he was being scolded. Although he had been forced by Si Fan to participate, he was still helping to target Yin Xun. Now that he had become Yin Xun¡¯s employee and was working for her, he felt that something was gradually changing.


    ¡°I¡¯ve conveyed all the tasks I need from you. Do you need anything else?¡± Yin Xun asked after a moment of silence.


    Cheng She hurriedly said, ¡°It¡¯s fine now, President Yin!¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve been very busy recently. You¡¯ve just arrived at the company, so there must be many things you don¡¯t understand. If I¡¯m not around and you can¡¯t contact me, you can ask Mary. Oh right, you should already know Mary, right? Si Fan kidnapped her brother back then.¡±


    Cheng She¡¯s face turned red when he heard Mary¡¯s name.


    Of course, he knew who Mary was. He had helped out when Si Fan kidnapped Mark, and he had even handled some things himself.


    At the thought of this, Cheng She was so nervous that he repeatedly scratched the sofa. Fortunately, he was talking to Yin Xun over the phone. If they were talking in person, he would probably be even more ashamed.


    He felt that Yin Xun was deliberately mentioning these things, but he could not prove it. Perhaps it was all in his mind.


    ¡°Understood, don¡¯t worry about me,¡± Cheng She said guiltily. Just as he was about to hang up, he suddenly remembered something that he had overheard.


    On the night Si Xia let Mark go, he went to talk to Si Fan about something and accidentally heard a shocking secret.


    That night, he heard Yin Mo announce that she wanted to give her heart to Si Xia and even said that she wasn¡¯t afraid of death. Thinking about the time he passed by Yin Mo¡¯s room when he visited Si Fan¡¯s house and saw her tied to the bed, Cheng She felt a little conflicted.


    Should he tell Yin Xun about this?


    ¡°Uh, President Yin, your younger sister¡­ 1 mean Miss Yin Mo. Have you been in contact with her recently?¡± Cheng She deliberated over his words as he asked.


    Although he heard Yin Mo saying that she had cut ties with the Yin family, this incident concerned a human¡¯s life. He felt that he had to inform Yin Xun..

 Chapter 548 - Chapter 548: Not Panicking

    Chapter 548: Not Panicking


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing Yin Mo¡¯s name, Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. She said, ¡°Not really. What happened to her?¡±


    ¡°Well, I¡¯m not sure if what I saw was real either. Miss Si Xia¡¯s heart isn¡¯t in great condition, right? It seems like Miss Yin Mo is very concerned about her. Apparently, she took the initiative to offer her heart to Si Xia.¡± Cheng She did not want to say anything with too much certainty, afraid that it would cause unnecessary misunderstandings.


    ¡°Do you know about Yin Mo¡¯s current situation?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Cheng She frowned deeply, wondering if he should tell Yin Xun that Yin Mo was imprisoned by Si Fan.


    Although Yin Mo and Yin Xun were at loggerheads, they were still family. They could do whatever they wanted to each other if their lives were not in danger. Perhaps when one of them was in real danger, the other would not really ignore it.


    He was now Si Fan¡¯s spy. Putting aside whether Si Fan would regain control of Blue Fox in the future, it was very dangerous to be an undercover agent. If he made any mistakes and was targeted by Si Fan one day, perhaps Yin Xun would do him a favor on account that he helped the Yin family.


    No one could blame him for not being fully loyal to Si Fan. He simply did not dare to be loyal.


    The last person who was loyal to Si Fan had already been sent to the police station to rot in jail. Not only did Si Fan not help him, he even mocked him. Cheng She was afraid that he would end up like Zhu Chuan. He did not think that Si Fan would show kindness for his sake.


    In just a few seconds, countless thoughts flashed through Cheng She¡¯s mind. In the end, he decided to take the risk and reveal what he knew.


    He had always been a good judge of character. Although he had only interacted with Yin Xun for a short period of time, he could sense that Yin Xun was completely different from Si Fan. At the very least, Yin Xun was not the kind of person who would step over someone else¡¯s corpse to climb up the ranks.


    Even if Yin Xun ignored what he said, she probably would not tell Si Fan. He was not completely confident, but he wanted to take a gamble. If possible, he wanted to find an opportunity to leave Si Fan.


    After hesitating for a while, Cheng She decided to tell Yin Xun about Yin Mo¡¯s situation.


    ¡°The last time I went to the Si residence, 1 saw Miss Yin Mo¡­¡± Cheng She paused before finishing, ¡°She was tied up by Si Fan.¡±


    It was Yin Xun¡¯s turn to be surprised.


    As expected, Yin Mo was still following the original plot. Even if Yin Xun had been interfering with Si Fan and preventing him from attacking the Yin family, she was surprised that she could not stop Yin Mo from entering the main plot. Was this the stage of her imprisonment?


    She was going to have her heart removed while being imprisoned. It matched the original plot. She was still missing one step¡ªpregnancy. However, she had no way of knowing if Yin Mo was pregnant now.


    ¡°Alright, I understand. Is Si Fan aware that you know so much?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    She remembered that in the original novel, Si Fan had kept this matter absolutely confidential because if it was made public, he would be finished.


    If Si Fan found out that Cheng She had told her about this, Cheng She would face consequences.


    Cheng She said, ¡°I don¡¯t know. I saw it by accident. I trust that President Yin won¡¯t tell Si Fan about this. 1 don¡¯t have any hidden motives for telling you this.


    I just thought it was a little pitiful for a girl like Miss Yin Mo to be treated like this.¡±


    ¡°Okay, don¡¯t mention this matter to anyone else. Thank you.¡± Yin Xun thanked Cheng She solemnly.


    These words of thanks came from the bottom of her heart. Cheng She could have chosen something else to earn a favor from Yin Xun, but he chose to tell her this. In fact, he was more worried about Yin Mo and what might happen to her. After all, a person like Si Fan could really do anything.


    He had finally said all that he wanted to say. Cheng She immediately felt much more relaxed. After saying goodbye to Yin Xun, he hung up.


    The next day, Cheng She came to Xintao early in the morning.


    His ability at work was indeed very strong. He had just arrived at the company and had already completed the task that Yin Xun had given him last night. He posted an announcement on Xintao and asked all the users of Xintao to send their deliveries with Lechang.


    Initially, everyone was anxious about the increase in the price of express delivery. When they saw Cheng She¡¯s announcement, they immediately saw a glimmer of hope and went along with Lechang.


    As expected, despite all the other express delivery companies targeting Xintao merchants, only Lechang remained normal. Not only did their prices not increase, but they even went down.


    This was a good thing for the merchants in Xintao. For a moment, the delivery orders handed to Lechang began to increase at an insane rate.


    The other courier companies had been watching the situation at Xintao. They also saw Xintao¡¯s announcement. In the beginning, everyone was prepared to watch how things would unfold and how Xintao would make a fool of themselves.. After all, how could Lechang alone bear all of Xintao¡¯s courier needs?

 Chapter 549 - Chapter 549: Exchanging Information

    Chapter 549: Exchanging Information


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Although Xintao still had Xintao Express, everyone knew that Xintao Express usually did not support a large delivery volume and did not have many employees. It was impossible for them to suddenly accept such a large quantity.


    Moreover, Xintao Express mainly focused on speed. The cost was high and it was different from normal delivery services that were intended to make deliveries in large quantities.


    If Xintao Express also accepted deliveries from ordinary merchants, the delivery system of Xintao would collapse sooner or later.


    However, when everyone was watching the commotion, they gradually realized that something was wrong. From the moment the Xintao announcement was released, the merchants began to hand their deliveries to Lechang. However, despite the sudden influx of delivery requests, Lechang somehow did not collapse and was still carrying on in an orderly manner.


    When the bosses of the delivery companies saw that the situation was different from what they had imagined, they immediately held an emergency meeting and began to discuss how to deal with Xintao. Their current plan to ostracize them clearly was not working.


    Since that was the case, they could only talk to the CEO of Lechang personally.


    No matter what, they could not let Lechang and Xintao continue sailing smoothly.


    Their delivery companies were established at about the same time, and they were ail controlled by the Le Corporation. Therefore, although there was usually competition, they were united when facing big things and dealt with adversaries together.


    Lechang was the newest courier company. Before Xintao was established, the others had begun to ostracize Lechang, looking down on this fresh courier company.


    Now that Lechang and Xintao were working together, they were even more upset.


    If not for Lechang, they would have easily refused to cooperate with Xintao. If Xintao could not find a delivery partner, they would be unable to establish themselves, and today¡¯s situation would not have happened. Not only did Lechang get a share, but they were partnering with the enemy now.


    However, even though everyone was unhappy with Lechang, their main target now was Xintao. In order to deal with Xintao, everyone discussed it and decided that they had to pull Lechang over to their side.


    After the bosses finished their discussion, they went to look for the new President of Blue Fox, Le An, hoping that he would come forward to solve this problem.


    After Le An received the news, he approved of the plan and sent Vice President Xu Lin to negotiate.


    Yin Xun received the news from Chen Dong immediately and did not seem to panic at all.


    Since those people were so confident, she would let them work hard. In the end, she would make her move.


    Yin Xun looked at Cheng She, who had come over to report his work. Before he could speak, Yin Xun asked him, ¡°Cheng She, before you came over as a spy, have you interacted with the vice president of Blue Fox? I believe he¡¯s called Xu Lin. What kind of person is he? Do you know what he¡¯s capable of?¡±


    Cheng She thought for a moment and replied, ¡°When 1 came over, Xu Lin had just taken office. Because 1 was Si Fan¡¯s assistant before, both Si Fan and 1 were ostracized by the new management and 1 didn¡¯t have much contact with them. However, 1 heard from the other employees that he is a very capable person.¡± ¡°What¡¯s his personality like?¡± Yin Xun continued to ask questions.


    Cheng She said, ¡°He¡¯s quite easy-going and has a lot of thoughts in his brain. When 1 was at Blue Fox, 1 heard a lot of people talking about him. He has loads of ideas, but unfortunately, he¡¯s limited by his position. You also know that in the company, whoever has the most shares has the highest say in the decisions. He¡¯s only a vice president, so he has to listen to the shareholders for the specifics. In other words, all his decisions now are basically the shareholders¡¯ decisions. Oh right, the biggest shareholder in the company now is Le An, but he is not an incredibly good person.¡±


    Yin Xun had also guessed this. If Le An¡¯s character was wonderful, he would not have fired so many employees right after taking over the company. The reason for dismissing them was all related to work mistakes. Even if some employees could not be fired without a valid reason, those employees would also resign because they were ostracized in the company.


    This way, he saved the company a lot of money without having to worry about the employees being able to sue him. How could such a person have a good personality?


    Yin Xun smiled and thanked him. ¡°Thank you for your information. Although it¡¯s not much, it¡¯s very useful.¡±


    This way, when Xu Lin came over to negotiate with Lechang, she would know what to do.


    ¡°Well, actually, this is not special information. Any random employee of Blue Fox would know about this¡­¡± Cheng She was a little embarrassed by Yin Xun¡¯s words.


    He was clearly a spy who was in charge of providing Si Fan with information. However, why did he answer Yin Xun¡¯s question so easily? It felt like he was a double agent..

 Chapter 550 - Chapter 550: This Project Is Too Hard

    Chapter 550: This Project Is Too Hard


    Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    If Si Fan found out, he would probably be so angry that he would smash things and hit people again.


    Cheng She sighed in his heart. This should not continue; he was now a spy for Si Fan. Although he was unhappy about his situation, it was better not to provide Yin Xun with information for the sake of his own life.


    ¡°Do you know why I¡¯m asking you this?¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°Since you¡¯re giving me information, I¡¯ll tell you why I¡¯m asking you. With this, we¡¯re even. Blue Fox sent Xu Lin over to negotiate with Lechang. They probably want to discuss banning Lechang from working with Xintao. Previously, there were other courier companies who contacted Lechang to threaten them¡­¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    That made sense. Not many people outside knew that Lechang had been acquired by Xintao. Even he, a spy, had only just found out.


    Things had happened so quickly. Even if he wanted to inform Si Fan, he did not have the time. Xu Lin did not know about this. He could already imagine how awkward it would be when he looked at Yin Xun.


    Speaking of which, it was almost funny. Si Fan¡¯s confident reminder and Blue Fox¡¯s confidence in their control of the entire situation were actually all in Yin Xun¡¯s control, but they did not know about it.


    At this moment, Cheng She felt like he was watching a jester¡¯s performance. Previously, he thought that Yin Xun had succeeded because of Yin Cheng¡¯s help from behind the scenes. Now, he felt that Yin Xun had relied on herself to do all of this.


    He had a feeling that this was just the beginning. Si Fan was no longer a worthy opponent of Yin Xun¡¯s. Presumably, it would not be long before even Blue Fox¡¯s new management would be defeated by Yin Xun. He did not know why he felt this, though.


    ¡°By the way, why are you here?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°President Yin, regarding the mapping project, I have a detailed understanding of it now. Putting aside the problems of getting an online taxi service, just the map itself has two big problems.¡± After Yin Xun finished asking, Cheng She started to report his work.


    He had come to ask Yin Xun about the mapping project and did not expect to be dragged by Yin Xun into a conversation about Blue Fox as soon as he arrived. Yin Xun sorted out the documents on the table and asked, ¡°Oh, what is it? Tell me.¡±


    ¡°The initial plan was to optimize the map data and add voice navigation functions to ensure the accuracy of the map and make it easier for users to read. However, with our current technology, even if we cooperate with the best digital company in the country, it¡¯s almost impossible to achieve the accuracy you want.¡±


    Cheng She told Yin Xun his concerns.


    According to Yin Xun¡¯s plan, she wanted to make a map of the whole country, not just a city. This required the statisticians to travel all over the country. Every time they arrived at a place, they would enter new data. It was very tedious.


    Technology was not very advanced yet, so there was no simpler way. In particular, Yin Xun¡¯s requirements were very high. It had to be precise enough to locate a singular shop so that users could use the navigation system regardless of their destination.


    To achieve this, whether it was technology or finance, it required a lot. Cheng She felt that this project might not even be able to make a profit in the end. In fact, it did not seem to be worth it at all.


    However, he only mentioned the difficulties of this project and did not dare to say that he could not do it.


    Hearing Cheng She¡¯s dilemma, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°This is actually easy to resolve. We can just make it a small game¡±


    ¡°Game?¡± Cheng She was stunned. They were talking about the map. Why were they suddenly talking about a game?


    ¡°That¡¯s right. We¡¯ll use a game to make the map and data for phones.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Create a small game for the users. As long as the user enters some location data, they will obtain a prize. As for how to set the prizes and the rules of the game, I¡¯ll leave this to you.¡±


    ¡°The reward can be direct cash. You don¡¯t have to play riddles like Si Fan back then. In the end, you¡¯ll only be given a few cents or a twenty-yuan coupon for a Rolls-Royce. We will make sure to be transparent. Users will be given cash directly after completing the mission. Only then can we attract more users.¡±


    Then, Yin Xun handed the rough plan she had previously made to Cheng She. ¡°Take this and read it slowly. I have to go to Lechang. Those people want to buy Lechang to deal with Xintao. Naturally, 1 have to be there for negotiations.¡±


    Cheng She still did not know what Yin Xun meant. Puzzled, he opened the plan. When he saw Yin Xun¡¯s idea, he was immediately shocked.. He did not expect Yin Xun to think of such a method!

 Chapter 551 - Chapter 551: Has To Be Good-looking

    Chapter 551: Has To Be Good-looking


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    They would use cash gifts to entice users into doing missions. The users would be all over the country. When the game started, they would upload the data according to the instructions of the game. Then, the professional technicians of the digital company can accurately locate them. They would be able to save a lot of money. At the same time, they would enrich the database and pull in a large number of users. It was like killing three birds with one stone.


    As for what kind of game it was, it was a simple task of checking online to see what young people liked the most. This was not difficult.


    Cheng She said goodbye to Yin Xun and left. When he reached the door, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.


    Cheng She stopped in his tracks and turned around to say, ¡°President Yin, since you said that you want to make a training game, why don¡¯t we set it up as a card game? Currently, the most popular training game in computer games is a card game, similar to poker cards. The logo on it is replaced with good-looking men and women. Young people nowadays seem to like this kind of thing. 1 have seen many people calling two-dimensional characters their husband or wife.¡±


    Yin Xun put away all the information on the table and locked it in the drawer. When she heard Cheng Shen¡¯s words, she nodded in agreement. ¡°That¡¯s a good idea. As long as the character is good-looking enough, even if there¡¯s no cash reward, it can still attract many young people. However, it can¡¯t be in the form of poker cards. It has to be 3D.¡±


    Cheng She froze for a moment. ¡°President Yin, what do you mean?¡±


    ¡°The game¡¯s character designs could have something like cute little elves,¡± Yin Xun said in a deep voice. ¡°When the user unlocks enough locations, the characters and elves will also level up. When the voice package is released, the users who have completed a certain mission can use their chosen characters to navigate.¡±


    Cheng She frowned as he said, ¡°President Yin, although your idea is very good, with our current technology, it seems to be a little difficult to make a 3D model. If the modelling is rough and the character ends up ugly, it might have the opposite effect.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Then hire the best modeller. The character modelling must be perfect. Do it in detail.¡±


    ¡°But that would cost a lot of money¡­¡± Cheng She was in a difficult position.


    He thought back to when he was in Blue Fox. Si Fan had paid a lot of attention to funding. No matter what he did, he had to keep the funding to a minimum and achieve the best effect.


    If there were any problems during the process, it would be his fault in the end. He was afraid that Yin Xun would be the same. After all, Yin Xun wanted to use games to enrich the database in order to save money for the project.


    To his surprise. Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°As long as we can do the project well, it doesn¡¯t matter how much we spend. The one thing the company doesn¡¯t lack is money.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­ Then why didn¡¯t you just use all that money to make the map? Why did you take such a big detour?¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Technology is developing very quickly. Mobile phone maps are inconspicuous now and many people feel that they are useless. In the future, however, when smartphones become universal, transportation will be more convenient with this. By then, more people will be travelling. They will be almost inseparable from the maps.¡±


    ¡°As long as it¡¯s something that can make money, there will be many people who will try it. Although we are the first to try it, how can you guarantee that users will always use our map in the future? The online taxi service will also become popular when the time comes. When there is more competition, we can only keep lowering our fees to keep our customers.


    ¡°But if we design a recognizable image for the map from the beginning, allowing character models to complement the map, many nostalgic people won¡¯t easily give up on the characters they trained for so long. They will continue to use our maps. Our main focus is on the users¡¯ sentimental feelings.¡±


    Cheng She felt as if he understood what she was saying. He asked, ¡°President Yin, you¡¯re saying that we will exploit the users¡¯ feelings to retain customers and continue to earn money.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s what 1 meant.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    As expected, bosses were equally evil. The only difference between Yin Xun and Si Fan was that Yin Xun¡¯s attitude was better than Si Fan¡¯s.


    ¡°Alright, 1 understand. I¡¯ll go make plans now.¡± Cheng She turned to leave, but Yin Xun stopped him.


    ¡°By the way, the game characters can be a little sexy and cute. They can be as beautiful as you want, but there¡¯s one condition. Female characters should not reveal their bodies,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    Cheng She turned around and asked in confusion, ¡°How can they be sexy without revealing their body? Many games don¡¯t hesitate to show some skin. And they¡¯re very popular..¡±

 Chapter 552 - Chapter 552: No Shortage Of Money

    Chapter 552: No Shortage Of Money


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun explained helplessly, ¡°Look, you¡¯re old-fashioned. Being sexy doesn¡¯t mean they have to be exposed, just like being cute doesn¡¯t mean they have to be lolls. Actually, this is more based on the character¡¯s personality. If you think that it¡¯s difficult to show the character¡¯s personality just by relying on clothes, you can make a storyline and write a background story for each character. That way, the character will be more charismatic. Or, you can anthropomorphize the city according to the characteristics of each city. Both men and women can work for this, as long as you remember that the core needs to be beautiful.¡±


    ¡°So all the characters have to be covered up?¡± he asked uncertainly.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°There¡¯s no need to be so absolute. What 1 mean is not to deliberately expose the characters, but you don¡¯t have to be so feudal that you can¡¯t show their bodies at all. Everything is done according to the character¡¯s personality and experience. Beauty is subjective. Regardless of gender, every character¡¯s personality and appearance can¡¯t be the same. They have to have their own characteristics. It¡¯s just that you must make users fall in love with the characters at a glance and worship them as a god or goddess, or a husband or wife. This way, not only will they use our map software forever, but they will also be willing to pay money for the character.¡±


    Looking at Cheng She¡¯s stunned expression, Yin Xun smiled and asked him, ¡°1 should have explained it in detail. It¡¯s very simple, right? You can definitely do it, can¡¯t you?¡±


    Cheng She, ¡°¡­President Yin, I suddenly feel that I might not be suitable for this project. Why don¡¯t you change my position?¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s requests, Cheng She suddenly felt that Si Fan¡¯s requests were not unreasonable.


    Yin Xun¡¯s eyes curved into crescents as she looked at Cheng She and shrugged nonchalantly. ¡°Sure, but if you¡¯re not by my side, you won¡¯t be able to get first-hand information. Are you sure they¡¯ll let you off?¡±


    Cheng She fell silent.


    He had a feeling that Si Fan was the traitor here. How could he throw a capable employee to his opponent¡¯s company? It was not that Cheng She was boasting, but he was really the most capable person on Si Fan¡¯s side.


    He sighed in his heart. It was just as he had first thought. It was just a change of venue to continue being a slave. The only thing better than Blue Fox was the increase in his salary. He also did not have to work overtime and had a weekend off. Aside from that, there was not anything else to be happy about.


    Cheng She said exasperatedly, ¡°President Yin, then according to what you said, I will really have to find the best modelling artist. You have to be mentally prepared. The preparation time for the game will be very long. It will take at least two years¡­¡±


    ¡°Didn¡¯t i tell you? We don¡¯t lack money. If you don¡¯t have enough people, recruit them. If you don¡¯t have enough domestic artists, go overseas to find them. Anyway, 1 only care about the quality and speed at the end.¡± Yin Xun walked to Cheng She¡¯s side with the car key in her hand. After delaying for so long, it was time for her to go to Lechang.


    ¡°By the way, there¡¯s one more thing. Be careful that the games don¡¯t take up too much phone memory. You must ensure it runs smoothly.¡± Yin Xun remembered another condition and instructed Cheng She.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    There was no high-class 3D game that did not take up significant phone memory. Seeing that Yin Xun¡¯s requests were increasing and becoming more and more ridiculous, Cheng She was afraid of hearing any more requests. He quickly bade Yin Xun farewell and left quickly.


    Yin Xun smiled as he watched Cheng Shen run away. Cheng Shen had come at just the right time. Fortunately, this was a tricky project, so it was most suitable to leave it to Cheng She.


    This was only the beginning. Yin Xun sighed when she thought about the nasty things that had happened between Sha Gao and Ye Wen. There was more trouble to come.


    After leaving Cheng She, Yin Xun drove out of Xintao and headed to Lechang¡¯s office.


    When she arrived, the person in charge had an anxious expression on his face as he walked over to her and reported softly, ¡°President Yin, Blue Fox¡¯s manager is waiting for you in the meeting room. However, he does not seem to have good intentions. Just now, a few other delivery bosses took turns threatening me. They said that Lechang should not take up so much of the market. If Lechang does not cooperate with them, they will ostracize us together in the future.¡±


    ¡°Alright, i got it. I¡¯ll go to the meeting room to meet this person.¡± When Yin Xun left, she realized that the manager was still following behind her, so she said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to follow.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡±


    When she arrived at the door of the conference room, Yin Xun realized that the door was ajar. The person inside was on the phone. Just as she was about to knock, she heard her name being mentioned..

 Chapter 553 - Chapter 553: Badmouthing People In Their Face

    Chapter 553: Badmouthing People In Their Face


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, President Le. They targeted Lechang previously and it was already difficult for Lechang. Now, they¡¯re at the end of the round. Besides, you don¡¯t think highly of women. Yin Xun is a young girl; in terms of experience and strength, she¡¯s no match for you. You don¡¯t have to worry at all.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll definitely have to convince Boss Lechang to work with us.¡±


    The other party was having a call related to her. Yin Xun immediately put down her hand that was about to knock on the door. Yin Xun crossed her arms and leaned against the door to listen to the conversation inside. It was about the acquisition of Lechang.


    After Xu Lin finished his call, Yin Xun gently knocked on the door. Then, she pushed the door open and entered. She saw the person sitting on the sofa, holding a teacup and preparing to drink tea.


    Xu Lin raised his head. The moment he saw Yin Xun, a trace of surprise flashed across his face. Then, he revealed a look of understanding.


    Before Yin Xun could say anything, he greeted her first. ¡°President Yin, what a coincidence. 1 did not expect you to come over as well.¡±


    After saying that, a few gentlemen stood up and walked to Yin Xun. It seemed like they were not at all worried that Yin Xun had heard what he had just said on the phone.


    Yin Xun shook his hand and smiled. ¡°I¡¯ve heard great things about you. I didn¡¯t expect to get the pleasure of meeting you today either.¡±


    The moment she saw Xu Lin, Yin Xun was a little surprised. She had always thought that Xu Lin was an older person. She did not expect him to be so young. He looked like he was less than 30 years old.


    As far as she knew, Xu Lin was not a rich second-generation heir. He relied on his own ability to get to this position.


    The upper echelons of Blue Fox were basically all investors. Only Xu Lin relied on his ability to climb up. From the looks of it, this person was indeed a capable man. However, it was surprising to see that he spoke ill of others behind their backs.


    Xu Lin invited Yin Xun to sit down, and then he sat opposite her. He politely said, ¡°President Yin, you must be joking. 1 am not that amazing, and I¡¯m not famous in the industry at all. 1 haven¡¯t done any real work. On the other hand, you are so young, but you have already done so much. It is really admirable.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°It¡¯s useless to be amazing. People will look down on you behind your back. Don¡¯t you think so, President Xu?¡±


    Xu Lin¡¯s smile froze on his face. It was obvious that Yin Xun¡¯s words meant something.


    He pretended not to understand and smiled awkwardly. ¡°Um, are you also here to look for Lechang¡¯s boss?¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Yes¡­ 1 guess so.¡±


    ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, this is about the delivery cooperation, right?¡± Xu Lin asked.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°You could put it that way.¡±


    Xu Lin¡¯s expression wavered as he said, ¡°Ah, President Yin, you¡¯re a girl, after all. To be able to do this at such a young age is really admirable. However, in the business world, there are only strong and weak people, and there is no distinction between men and women. Back then, Blue Fox was trampled by you because of Si Fan¡¯s poor management, but it is different now. The new CEO is the biggest shareholder of the other courier companies. You can beat Si Fan, but you might not be able to beat him. If you provoke him, it will not be as simple as being targeted.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled lightly and did not mind the threat in Xu Lin¡¯s words. She pretended not to understand and asked air, ¡°So are you praising me for having a business mind? You really have good taste. I think so too.¡±


    Xu Lin,¡±¡­¡±


    What did this mean? He did not know if Yin Xun really did not understand or if she was a huge narcissist. She seemed to not understand such an obvious hint. He started to be sceptical of Yin Xun¡¯s ability.


    ¡°President Yin, what I meant is that it was not easy for you to establish Xintao. You should cherish this opportunity. Blue Fox has been established for many years. As long as you can give in to them, Blue Fox will not make things difficult for you.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°Give in?¡±


    Xu Lin looked at Yin Xun with a serious expression as he said, ¡°President Yin, let¡¯s not beat around the bush. This time, you came over to look for the boss of Lechang to discuss a collaboration, right? Since that is the case, I believe that you are aware that many express delivery companies are working together to challenge Lechang. Lechang does not have a major shareholder, and because of insufficient funds, the transportation system is not mature. But you have no other choice. The rest of the express delivery companies are controlled by the Le Corporation. If you want to continue operating Xintao, you can only rely on Lechang.¡±


    ¡°However, it¡¯s impossible for Lechang to take all this business alone. 1 think Lechang¡¯s boss is having a headache at this time. Compared to Xintao, Lechang will be more inclined to cooperate with Blue Fox. As long as I promise not to make things difficult for Lechang, their owner will definitely abandon Xintao and work with Blue Fox.¡±


    ¡°Are you so sure that you can take down Lechang?¡± Yin Xun asked with a faint smile..

 Chapter 554 - Chapter 554:I Bought It

    Chapter 554:I Bought It


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Xu Lin nodded and said, ¡°Of course, I would not have come if I was not completely confident. President Yin, you are actually a rare talent. If Xintao is unable to continue because of the delivery problem, you can actually join Blue Fox. Our President Le cherishes talent very much. He will definitely give you a satisfactory position.¡±


    As he spoke, Xu Lin raised his hand to look at his watch and looked in the direction of the door from time to time.


    He frowned and said, ¡°That¡¯s strange. Boss Tan said he had arrived earlier. Why isn¡¯t he here yet? It¡¯s impolite to let your guests wait for so long. This is the only chance to cooperate with Blue Fox. If they miss this opportunity, they might very well be bought by Blue Fox next time.¡±


    ¡°That¡­ I¡¯m afraid you can¡¯t buy this company.¡± Yin Xun cleared her throat and smiled at Xu Lin. ¡°Lechang¡¯s current boss¡¯s surname is no longer Tan. The owner¡¯s surname is Yin.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Xu Lin looked at Yin Xun. His expression slowly changed from doubt to disbelief. His eyes widened in surprise as he said, ¡°Could it be¡­¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t have time to introduce myself when I came in just now. Lechang has already been acquired by me. I¡¯m now Lechang¡¯s boss.¡± The air suddenly became quiet. Xu Lin, who had been talking with confidence since Yin Xun came in, was now looking at Yin Xun with an extremely strange expression. He opened his mouth but did not say a word. Yin Xun saw that his face had started to change color as he was filled with shock.


    At this moment, Xu Lin wanted to ask Yin Xun why she did not reveal this when she first entered. She waited for him to say so much before revealing her identity.


    However, he knew better than to ask Yin Xun about it. Not to mention, he was here to take down Yin Xun, so it was normal for Yin Xun not to answer his questions.


    When he thought of what he had said to Yin Xun just now with confidence, he immediately felt like he was being treated like a fool!


    ¡°President Yin, you are really¡­ good at keeping your composure. 1 said all those things, but you did not bother to refute me. You indeed have the potential to achieve great things.¡± Xu Lin suppressed the shock and awkwardness in his heart. ¡°Since you are Lechang¡¯s boss, then I will not continue to put on airs. Oh right, I apologize for what I said just now. I undermined your skill earlier only because I wanted to dissuade you.¡±


    ¡°Sorry to disturb you.¡± Xu Lin stood up and walked toward the door.


    ¡°Vice President Xu, wait.¡± Yin Xun saw that Xu Lin was about to leave and stopped him. ¡°I didn¡¯t mention my identity just now. I didn¡¯t plan to make a fool of you. 1 just wanted to know what you were thinking.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Xu Lin stopped and turned around. He looked at Yin Xun in confusion, not understanding what she meant.


    Yin Xun stood up and looked at Xu Lin. ¡°The current president of Blue Fox is Mr. Le An. I don¡¯t have any personal grudges with him, so there¡¯s no need for us to target each other. Now that the Internet has just risen, we all know how much room there will be for development in the future. This market is so big that even if more shopping websites appear in the future, it¡¯s enough to share.¡± ¡°I might even go so far as to say that physical shops won¡¯t have much room to survive in the future. At that time, it will be a world of online shopping. If we expand our company domestically, we can even reach out overseas. It¡¯s not a good thing to be too dominant in the field. It will only draw envious gazes. 1 don¡¯t think 1 need to explain in detail. You should know what 1 mean.¡±


    Her words were very objective. Xu Lin lowered his eyes slightly. In his heart, he agreed with Yin Xun¡¯s words, but the investors of Blue Fox might not necessarily agree.


    Everyone¡¯s goal in doing business was to make money. No one would turn away money.


    Regarding the future development prospects of the Internet, their company had already done research and analysis. Now was the time when technology was developing rapidly. Smartphones were no longer rare. These days, everyone can own a smartphone. As long as they could connect to the Internet, they could do their shopping online.


    Currently, the biggest problem was the communication network. The network signal on the phone was not great, so some people were still using computers for convenience.


    Once the communication company upgraded the network to allow mobile phones to access the Internet smoothly, the entire network environment would usher in a straight-line development.


    The future prospects were very good. The reason why Blue Fox was targeting Xintao now was not because of personal grudges, but purely because the investors wanted to monopolize the market.


    However, in their eyes, even if they had to reduce the customer market, they did not want others to take advantage of it..

    Chapter 555: Make A Deal


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Xu Lin looked at Yin Xun. He felt that Yin Xun was a very bold woman. She had brains and ideas. Most importantly, she was a practical thinker.


    Back then, they did not expect that Yin Xun would actually buy Lechang. She must have sensed the danger in advance and took action. He knew that Yin Xun was a competitor to Blue Fox, but¡­


    ¡°Blue Fox wants to monopolize the market. It does not matter if it¡¯s you or some other new company, Blue Fox¡¯s investors will want to suppress them.¡± Xu Lin did not want to be enemies with Yin Xun, but he did not have much authority. He could only try his best to help pass on the message. ¡°President Yin, I will convey this to the investors of Blue Fox on your behalf. As for the outcome, I can make no guarantees.¡±


    Yin Xun only wanted to be on good terms with Blue Fox. As for whether they would appreciate it or not, she did not care.


    She smiled and agreed. ¡°Alright. However, if Blue Fox insists on making Xintao their enemy, then we¡¯ll have to rely on our own abilities in the future. I won¡¯t go easy on you.¡±


    Xu Lin also smiled and nodded. ¡°Very well.¡±


    Yin Xun had originally wanted to invite Xu Lin for a meal, but she was rejected. At this moment, Xu Lin had something to investigate.


    After leaving Lechang and returning to Blue Fox, the first thing Xu Lin did was to investigate Yin Xun.


    He kept feeling that something was amiss. It made sense for Yin Xun to open Xintao. The Yin family was also considered to have a strong background. It was a simple matter to support Yin Xun to open two companies.


    After Xintao was established, Yin Xun began to burn money to promote it. She did all kinds of activities and spent a lot of money. Now, she bought the entire Lechang Express.


    Logically speaking, even if Xintao was very popular now and the profits were considerable, it was impossible for them to recover their capital in just a few days. If he was not wrong, Yin Xun must have many powerful investors behind him.


    After asking a few senior management members, no one knew who the investor behind Yin Xun was.


    ¡°You tried to challenge her directly without even checking her background?¡± Xu Lin was furious.


    He had only recently arrived at Blue Fox. Previously, he had only heard of Xintao and Yin Xun. Now that Le An had instructed him to take responsibility for this issue, he had to do his best.


    Xu Lin personally went to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to check about the investors of Xintao. When he saw who the other party was, he was shocked. He immediately rushed back to the company to discuss countermeasures with Le An.


    Although Le An had given him full authority to handle this matter, the person behind Yin Xun was too formidable. He felt that he could not deal with this matter alone.


    The commotion was getting rather loud and it directly alarmed Si Fan.


    ¡°Looks like my chance to make a comeback is here.¡± Si Fan smiled smugly and went to the CEO¡¯s office to look for Le An.


    Le An had just received Xu Lin¡¯s news and was also severely shocked. Just as he was about to contact the other investors, Si Fan came over. He did not even knock and directly opened the door to walk in.


    Looking at the familiar office, Si Fan suppressed the savage look in his eyes and smiled. ¡°President Le, 1 know what problem Blue Fox is facing now. How about I make a deal with you?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m very busy now. 1 don¡¯t have time to listen to your nonsense. Get out. Also, I¡¯m the President now. Please knock on the door the next time you come. As an employee, you have to understand the rules of an employee.¡± Le An looked at Si Fan coldly, his face full of impatience.


    When he first took over the company, on account of Si Fan¡¯s former status, he was still quite polite to Si Fan. However, when he found out that Si Fan had the nerve to betray his company¡¯s secrets to attack Xintao, he started to be on guard against Si Fan.


    At that time, if Si Fan messed up and Yin Xun really got their secret and did something bad to Blue Fox, all their efforts would have been in vain.


    Si Fan, who had an extremely bad temper, was treated like this by Le An. It was unexpected for him to not start fuming. His emotions were calm since he entered. ¡°Yin Xun is not so easy to deal with. I understand the problem you¡¯re facing now. How is it? You¡¯ve suffered, right? I have a way to deal with Yin Xun now, but I have a condition. If I make Xintao go bankrupt, you must give me the position of Vice President and allow me to continue attending the meetings. How about that?¡±


    ¡°You can defeat Xintao?¡± Le An was skeptical. ¡°If you could have dealt with Xintao in the first place, you wouldn¡¯t have lost control of Blue Fox.¡±


    ¡°In the past, I just didn¡¯t have the right chance, but now, an excellent opportunity is right in front of me. However, there¡¯s not much time left. 1 advise you to make a decision quickly. If you miss this opportunity, you won¡¯t be able to defeat Yin Xun in the future. After all, the person behind her isn¡¯t someone you can make an enemy of.¡± Si Fan sat on the chair beside Le An without any self-awareness as an employee.


    ¡°What if you fail?¡± Le An narrowed his eyes at Si Fan..

 Chapter 556 - Chapter 556: Time To Make A Move

    Si Fan smiled and said, ¡°There¡¯s no chance of failure. If 1 somehow fail, I¡¯ll completely withdraw from the management in the future. 1 won¡¯t have any thoughts of seizing power and returning to the management again. Also, 1¡¯11 wholeheartedly support you and the company. How about it? Will you accept this deal?


    ¡°If you succeed, you will benefit the most. If you fail, you will leave unscathed. It seems unfair to me.¡± Le An frowned slightly as he looked at Si Fan.


    Si Fan said nonchalantly, ¡°I know that you¡¯re secretly afraid of me and want to chase me out of Blue Fox completely, but there¡¯s no way for you to do that. After all, we signed a contract back then. However, if you can rope me in to be your subordinate and have me promise to work together without trying to seize control, 1 think you¡¯ll be happy with that outcome.¡±


    Le An lowered his head and pondered. Actually, what Si Fan said made sense. The time Si Fan stole the company¡¯s secrets was a good example.


    Although he knew that it was Si Fan who did it, because there was no evidence, he could do nothing against Si Fan and could not chase him out of the company.


    If he agreed to this deal and Si Fan won, Blue Fox would benefit. If Si Fan lost, he would at least not have to worry about Si Fan anymore.


    Regardless of whether he succeeded or not, this deal was not a bad thing for him. Anyway, it was just the vice president position, so Si Fan would still have to listen to him. At most, after giving Si Fan the position, he could find a reason to dismiss him. Anyway, this was not in the contract.


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s a deal.¡± Le An narrowed his eyes slightly and gently knocked the table in agreement.


    Si Fan sneered and left after saying goodbye to Le An.


    He quickly returned to his office and took out his phone to make a call.


    After waiting for a long time, the call was picked up. Si Fan asked unhappily, ¡°Wang Bei, how¡¯s the situation on Yin Rui¡¯s side now?¡±


    For the past few days, he had asked Wang Bei to keep an eye on Yin Rui¡¯s whereabouts.


    ¡°President Si, I have a piece of good news. We have managed to swindle almost all of Yin Rui¡¯s money. He seems to be especially obsessed with making money from doing business. We used his idea to scam all the money out of him. Even though he¡¯s almost broke, he¡¯s still thinking about getting rich. 1 think the time is ripe.¡±


    Si Fan sneered and said, ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s do as we discussed at the beginning and bring him over. Oh right, when this matter is over, remember to give me the money quickly. Not a single cent less.¡±


    Wang Bei was silent for a moment before he smiled ingratiatingly and said, ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. It¡¯s just that¡­ Yin Rui has spent a lot of money recently on living costs. So, I might not be able to get you the full amount. 1 promise that 1 will give you what remains of his money, okay?¡±


    Si Fan snorted coldly and said threateningly, ¡°Wang Bei, don¡¯t think 1 don¡¯t know what you¡¯re thinking. Listen¡ªpay for it yourself! If you dare to mess this up, I¡¯ll be the first to come after you!¡±


    ¡°Alright, alright. Don¡¯t worry, I promise to complete the mission!¡± Faced with Si Fan¡¯s threat, Wang Bei did not dare to resist. After agreeing repeatedly, he hurriedly hung up.


    At this moment, Yin Rui still did not know that he had been schemed against. He was waiting for news at home according to what Wang Bei had told him.


    He took out some money and handed it to Wang Bei and Gou Chang to buy stocks. However, the risk of the stock market was too high. Although there were professionals helping to steer the ship, he still lost a lot in the end.


    Wang Bei asked him to wait at home. He went to look for a friend to help find a profitable business. Although Yin Rui did not place much hope on this, he had no choice but to trust Wang Bei.


    At this moment, Yin Rui was lying on the bed, thinking about what to do next.


    It was easy to do business, and it was not particularly difficult to find a job. The most difficult thing for him now was the contract with Yin Xun. He needed to earn double the money she gave him in half a month.


    He was literally trying to make his money multiply. How could it be done so soon? He did not know why he had accepted this bet.


    Previously, when he saw Yin Xun start Xintao, he thought that doing business was very simple. As long as he had money and connections, he could succeed. However, when he really started trying it, he realized how difficult it was.


    When he first came outside, his confidence had already been shattered. At this moment, he was a little confused. He did not know what he had to do to be like Yin Xun. He did not know if Yin Xun had been as helpless as him when she first decided to start Xintao.


    Although his friends had been helping him think of solutions, not only did they used up a lot of his money, but they also failed to earn much. This made him more and more anxious..

    Chapter 557: Kill You

    In order to save money, he even returned the luxurious house he had rented when he first left home. Now, he had rented an ordinary house. At least the rent was cheap. Me also sold his luxury goods just to earn more money.


    At this moment, he missed the food at home, the carefree times at home, his parents and sister¡­ He really wanted to tear up the contract and pretend that nothing had happened.


    Suddenly, Yin Rui¡¯s phone vibrated.


    He sat up in bed with a whirl and whipped out his phone. When he saw that it was a call from his friend, he quickly pressed the answer button.


    During this period, he had greatly relied on his friends to take care of him. Although he had lost all his money, at least they were all trying their best to help him.


    ¡°Yin Rui, through my friend¡¯s contacts, I¡¯ve finally found a job that can make a lot of money. It¡¯s simple and effective. As long as you work with me, I guarantee that you¡¯ll make a lot of money! Even with the little money you have, not only can we make up for the losses, but we can even multiply it by several times!¡± Gou Chang¡¯s excited voice came from the other end of the phone.


    Gou Chang was the first good friend Yin Rui knew. Although he was a little hot-tempered, he was a loyal person and treated him especially well.


    In the past, Gou Chang had always helped him whenever he encountered any problems. Yin Rui more or less had unconditional trust in him.


    Now that he heard Gou Chang say this, Yin Rui was instantly overjoyed.


    ¡°Really? Then what should I do?¡± Yin Rui asked excitedly.


    How could he not want such a tempting offer?


    Although he had yet to do anything, he was already secretly excited. The painful thoughts about Yin Xun just now had been swept away.


    This was great. Yin Xun would be humbled soon. He could prove that the friends he chose were not bad. Everyone was sincere in helping him.


    When he completed the bet, he would definitely go home and ask Yin Xun to apologize to him.


    Gou Chang said, ¡°Come out now. We¡¯ll bring you there. We¡¯re at the entrance of your neighborhood right now.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯m coming.¡± After Yin Rui agreed, he quickly tidied himself up and ran downstairs.


    He hurriedly walked toward the entrance of the residential area. As he left, he had a strange feeling. Usually, Gou Chang and the others would come to his house directly. Why did they call him to meet them instead of looking for him directly this time?


    There was a black car parked at the entrance of the residential area. Yin Rui paid no attention to it. He looked around for his friends.


    Suddenly, the car window was rolled down, revealing Gou Chang¡¯s smiling face.


    ¡°Get in the car. We¡¯ll go over now.¡± Gou Chang greeted Yin Rui, then opened the car door and gestured for Yin Rui to get in.


    When Gou Chang turned in his seat, Yin Rui saw an unfamiliar burly man in the backseat. He was wearing sunglasses and looked like he was not someone to be trifled with.


    Yin Rui hesitated for a moment. He looked at the man and felt uneasy. This person gave him a bad feeling.


    However, Gou Chang did not give him the chance to hesitate. Seeing that Yin Rui did not move, he got out of the car and ushered him in.


    Yin Rui sat beside Gou Chang. Only then did he realize that the people driving in front and the people in the front passenger seat were all muscular men of the same type as the first one.


    The uneasiness in Yin Rui¡¯s heart grew stronger and stronger. He asked Gou Chang in a low voice, ¡°Gou Chang, where are Wang Bei and the others?¡±


    Gou Chang smiled and said, ¡°They¡¯re waiting for you. Everyone is already there except for you. Seriously, why are you so nervous? These people were sent by my friend to pick us up. They¡¯re bodyguards. This is my friend¡¯s car. You know that I don¡¯t have the money to buy my own car.¡±


    So that was how it was. Hearing Gou Chang¡¯s explanation, Yin Rui instantly felt relieved. The explanation made sense.


    The car sped down the street and Yin Rui looked out the window. His heart, which had just calmed down, began to be filled with worry again.


    He realized that the car was driving toward the suburbs, and the scenery on both sides was getting more and more deserted. Should business not be done in the city center? What was there to find in such a place?


    ¡°Where are we going? What are we going to do?¡± Yin Rui could not help but ask.


    Gou Chang said, ¡°You¡¯ll know soon.¡±


    Gou Chang¡¯s voice turned slightly cold and had a hint of impatience. He felt very different from usual.


    For some reason, Yin Xun¡¯s words suddenly appeared in Yin Rui¡¯s mind. She had warned him countless times that his friends were not good people and had approached him with a purpose.


    Looking at the environment around him, the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger and stronger.


    ¡°I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do. I¡¯ll forget about doing this today. I¡¯ll go back for now. When I have time, we¡¯ll head out again, alright?¡± Yin Rui regretted his decision and wanted to go back..

 Chapter 558 - Chapter 558: Threats

    Chapter 558: Threats


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    It was obvious that Gou Chang did not plan to let him leave. He sneered and said, ¡°Since you¡¯re already out here, how can you go back? Do you know how difficult it is for me to find this business for you? Let¡¯s go. Didn¡¯t I guarantee that you can earn a lot of money? We¡¯ll let your evil sister see that you actually have the ability. Your big sister treated you so badly. Don¡¯t you want to take revenge on her?¡±


    ¡°My big sister was actually doing this for my own good¡­¡± Yin Rui retorted softly.


    Gou Chang spat and said, ¡°For your own good? Don¡¯t be so naive. How can there be siblings who treat each other sincerely in a wealthy family? But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll help you deal with her. I¡¯ll make her cough up all the assets that belong to you.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to compete with my elder sister for the inheritance. Forget it. 1 want to go back now. Please stop the car. 1¡¯11 take a taxi back myself.¡± Just as Yin Rui was about to stop the car, the three burly men turned their heads to look at him.


    ¡°Keep quiet.¡± The burly man sitting in the front passenger seat warned him coldly, ¡°If you speak again, I¡¯ll kill you.¡±


    Yin Rui,¡±¡­¡±


    He was becoming more and more certain that his intuition was right. What kind of bodyguard would be so threatening?


    Yin Rui immediately became nervous. As his gaze wandered around, he saw a knife hanging from the bodyguard¡¯s waist. His heart tightened and he did not dare to move.


    Soon, they arrived at their destination. The car stopped at the entrance of a warehouse. At a glance, it was abandoned. There was no one living around. The weeds were overgrown and everything was tattered.


    Yin Rui followed Gou Chang slowly into the warehouse. After taking a few steps, he was pushed hard by the burly man behind him. ¡°Hurry up. Don¡¯t dawdle.¡± The burly man¡¯s tone was very unpleasant.


    ¡°Forget it, I should be going back.¡± Yin Rui turned around and tried to leave, but he was grabbed by the burly man. ¡°You still want to leave after coming all the way here? Get in!¡±


    As soon as the burly man finished speaking, Yin Rui felt something sharp pressing against his waist. ¡°If you want to live, be obedient and don¡¯t move.¡±


    Yin Rui tried to ask Gou Chang for help, but Gou Chang did not even look at him. He pretended not to hear anything and walked straight into the warehouse.


    Yin Rui looked at Gou Chang in disbelief. Although he was scared, he did not dare to resist at all. He was ushered into the warehouse by the burly man.


    When he entered the warehouse and heard the door close behind him, Yin Rui instantly felt despair.


    This time, he seemed to be really done for. There were three people standing opposite him, all of them appearing very strong and holding knives and sticks. Their faces were filled with hostility. It seemed like he was doomed.


    ¡°Boss, I¡¯ve brought him over. He¡¯s the young master of the Yin family. His family has plenty of money. As long as we can control him, we won¡¯t have to worry about lacking money.¡± Gou Chang greeted someone like an obedient lackey. Then, he turned around and smiled at Yin Rui. ¡°Yin Rui, didn¡¯t you want to make money? I¡¯ve heard that there¡¯s nothing more profitable than selling drugs. How about it? Is this good enough?¡±


    Yin Rui¡¯s face was filled with shock. He did not expect to be tricked by his good friend!


    ¡°Um, can 1 refuse? I don¡¯t really want to make money anymore¡± No matter how insensible Yin Rui was, he knew that it was illegal to sell drugs, so he quickly rejected the idea.


    ¡°You¡¯re already here and you still want to leave? What are you thinking? No one can escape after our sights set on them.¡± They did not give Yin Rui a chance to refuse. One of the burly men took a contract and grabbed Yin Rui¡¯s hand, forcing him to plant his fingerprint.


    ¡°I won¡¯t sign it! Gou Chang, how dare you lie to me! I¡¯ve always treated you as a good brother! You f*cking¡­¡± Yin Rui saw that he was about to be forced to sign the contract and immediately became anxious. He started to curse Gou Chang.


    He had barely said a few words when Gou Chang kicked him to the ground in the next moment.


    Gou Chang spat, ¡°You brat, if it wasn¡¯t for your little bit of money, do you think 1 would have followed you around like an obedient grandson to please you every day? Don¡¯t worry, I know you don¡¯t want to smuggle drugs, but it doesn¡¯t matter. Soon, you will become our client. As long as we give you a few injections, you won¡¯t be able to stay away from drugs anymore. In the future, you will ask your family for drug money.¡±


    After being kicked a few times, Yin Rui finally did not dare to make a sound.


    In this situation, it was obvious that he could not escape. At this moment, he really regretted not listening to Yin Xun back then. He finally saw the true face of his so-called friend. It turned out that everyone really had ulterior motives when getting close to him!


    At this moment, it was too late for regrets. He knew how serious it was to be in contact with drugs. Once a person was addicted, it was almost impossible to quit.


    Since he could not avoid it, he could only stall for time. Although he knew in his heart that it was useless, at least he could delay his suffering..

 Chapter 559 - Chapter 559: Help Has Arrived

    Chapter 559: Help Has Arrived


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Rui tried to play the emotional card with Gou Chang and said nice things about him, but Gou Chang seemed to be determined to victimize him. No matter what Yin Rui said, he would not listen.


    As for the other accomplices, their tempers were even worse. Seeing Yin Rui behaving like this, they immediately lost their patience. They grabbed him and were about to inject drugs into his arms.


    At this moment, Yin Rui was already thinking about his future. He repeatedly apologizing to his parents and Yin Xun in his heart. He swore that if he was given another chance, he would not do such a stupid thing again.


    Just as the needle was about to pierce his flesh, the warehouse door suddenly opened. A thin man scrambled over and shouted, ¡°B-bad news! The police are here!¡±


    ¡°What? How did the police suddenly find this place? We just arrived!¡± The person who spoke seemed to be the boss. He was a short man and wore a flowery shirt with a gold chain.


    He walked in front of Gou Chang and punched him to the ground. He spat, ¡°Did you call the police here?! I won¡¯t forget about this. If you want to live, drag him along with you!¡± With that, he turned around and ran away.


    The others were also panicking. When the boss saw his companions standing rooted to the ground, he shouted, ¡°You¡¯re all idiots. Hurry up and pack up. Don¡¯t get caught by the police!¡±


    Everyone hastily packed their things, destroyed the evidence at the scene, and ran. Gou Chang was about to run when he saw Yin Rui standing where he was. Thinking of the boss¡¯s threat just now, he stood up and pulled him along to flee.


    This was a chance to escape. Although Yin Rui¡¯s hands were tied, he struggled with all his might in order not to be dragged away by Gou Chang.


    The two of them had only been struggling against each other for a short while when the sirens started getting closer and closer. Gou Chang saw that the situation was deteriorating, so he abandoned Yin Rui and tried to run.


    ¡°F*ck, everything got messed up at the critical moment. I¡¯m so damn unlucky!¡± Gou Chang cursed and bolted, but he was snagged by the police officers who rushed over after taking a few steps.


    Although Yin Rui did not know what was happening, he was so relieved that he was about to cry.


    The moment the police untied him, he finally could not stop his tears from flowing. He had almost been taken away and would never see his family again.


    ¡°You¡¯re an adult. Why are you crying? You asked for it!¡± A familiar voice sounded. Yin Rui turned around and saw Tan Ai standing at the side with a cold expression.


    ¡°Sister Tan Ai! My big sister asked you to come, didn¡¯t she?¡± He knew that Tan Ai was Yin Xun¡¯s bodyguard. The moment he saw Tan Ai, he immediately understood everything.


    It seemed that Yin Xun was the one who called the police over. But how did Yin Xun know that something like this was happening to him?


    Although he had some doubts in his heart, he did not have the energy to think about it carefully now. Soon, he was once again rooted by the lingering fear.


    Tan Ai looked at Yin Rui coldly and did not say anything. Instead, she walked to the side and communicated with the police for a while. After she finished speaking, a police officer walked up to Yin Rui.


    He looked at Yin Rui and smiled. ¡°You¡¯re Yin Xun¡¯s younger brother? Hello, my name is Zuo Liang. I¡¯m your sister¡¯s friend.¡±


    Yin Rui felt like a child who had done something wrong. He was so anxious that he did not know what to do. He opened his mouth, but he was so nervous that he could not speak. In the end, he just lowered his head.


    Zuo Liang saw Yin Rui¡¯s reaction and laughed comfortingly. ¡°Young man, you should thank your sister properly when you go back. If she hadn¡¯t called the police, you would have been taken away by that group of drug dealers. Do you know the consequences of being dragged away by those people?¡±


    Yin Xun shook his head and immediately felt that something was wrong. He nodded and said, ¡°They¡¯ll force me to sell drugs.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s more to it than that. Drug trafficking is one thing. But they¡¯ll take you to a place where there¡¯s no one around and abuse you mentally and physically until you¡¯ve completely lost the will to live. You won¡¯t get any money for the drug trafficking either. They¡¯ll take everything in the end.


    ¡°While you¡¯re healthy, they¡¯ll make you sell drugs to make money. When you¡¯re no longer useful to them, they¡¯ll cut off your organs and sell them. Your blood will be drained, and it¡¯ll be done without anesthesia.¡±


    Hearing Zuo Liang¡¯s words, Yin Rui was so frightened that his face turned pale. His legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Zuo Liang helped him up.


    Just now, he was only afraid of those strangers and did not want to sell drugs with them. He never thought that the outcome could be so terrifying. The thought sent chills down his spine.


    If he had been taken away just now, he might really be separated from his family forever..

    ¡°Go back and thank your sister properly later. If not for her, you might have to spend the rest of your life in that dark place.¡± Zuo Liang instructed him a few more times. Seeing that Yin Rui was almost scared out of his wits, he finally relented.


    Although what he said was the truth, under normal circumstances, Yin Rui was the victim. He should not be scaring Yin Rui like this. It was just that when Yin Xun called the police just now, she asked him to help teach Yin Rui a lesson.


    Yin Rui was too naive. This time, nothing happened because of Yin Xun¡¯s protection. What if he made such a mistake again?


    Moreover, as a police officer, it was his duty to educate ordinary citizens.


    Tan Ai followed Yin Rui to the police station to make a statement. After that, she brought him home.


    Yin Rui was originally worried that his parents would find out what he did and was hesitant to go home. After hearing Tan Ai explained that Wu Li and Yin Cheng had been sent out of the house momentarily by Yin Xun, he was relieved and went in. Along the way, even the servants did not appear. Yin Rui knew that Yin Xun had done all this for him, and his heart instantly surged with gratitude.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was sitting on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Yin Rui. After Tan Ai sent Yin Rui into the house, she silently turned around and left. She stood at the door and kept watch.


    Yin Rui stood at the side uneasily. He lowered his head and did not dare to move.


    Yin Xun nodded at him. ¡°Have a seat.¡±


    ¡°Sister, I¡¯m sorry. It¡¯s all my fault. 1 should have listened to you and not them¡­¡± Yin Rui hesitated for a long time. Seeing that Yin Xun¡¯s expression was indifferent and she did not seem to be particularly angry, he finally mustered the courage to apologize.


    This was the result of his stubbornness. Before he left home, he had said those words to Yin Xun and had always blamed Yin Xun. Yin Xun could have just ignored him, but she surprisingly saved his life at the most critical moment.


    ¡°It¡¯s not time to settle the bet yet. What do you plan to do next?¡± Yin Xun acted as if she did not hear his apology and did not respond. Instead, she asked him what he wanted to do next.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Rui did not expect that Yin Xun would ask about the bet instead of blaming him. ¡°Pm sorry, Big Sister. I lost more than half of the money you gave me, so 1 might not be able to do business anymore.¡±


    ¡°In other words, not only did you not fail the bet, but you also owe me a lot of money.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Yin Rui hurriedly said, ¡°Big Sis, don¡¯t worry. I promise I¡¯ll return this money to you. In the past, I didn¡¯t have to worry about food and clothing because you and Dad and Mom were looking after me. 1 thought it was easy to earn money, but now 1 know how hard it is. Especially in business, you have to take one step at a time. It¡¯s easy to be tempted to take a shortcut and go down the wrong path. I hope you can give me time. I¡¯ll rely on my own ability to earn this money back.¡±


    After saying that, Yin Rui¡¯s heart skipped a beat when he saw that Yin Xun did not react. It seemed that Yin Xun was really angry this time.


    He immediately panicked. He walked in front of Yin Xun and knelt down. ¡°Big Sister, I¡¯ve caused too much trouble this time. If it weren¡¯t for you, 1 would have died. You can punish me. It doesn¡¯t matter if you hit me or scold me. You can vent your anger however you want!¡±


    Seeing Yin Rui¡¯s fearless expression, Yin Xun¡¯s expression finally eased a little.


    She chuckled and patted Yin Rui¡¯s shoulder to signal him to get up. ¡°Just as you said, you¡¯ve never had to worry about food and clothing since you were young. You had everything you wanted, so you don¡¯t know the hardships of life. Since you understand better now, I think you should know what to do in the future. If 1 didn¡¯t call the police, who knows where you could be now.¡±


    ¡°By the way, Big Sis, how did you call the police so quickly? Didn¡¯t you say that you wanted me to go out and fend for myself and that you would pay attention to me?¡± Yin Rui was also very curious about this matter.


    Tan Ai was Yin Xun¡¯s bodyguard. Could it be that she had always been following him to protect him recently?


    From the beginning, did Yin Xun know that he would be in danger if he went out, so she sent bodyguards to protect him? Was this all part of Yin Xun¡¯s plan to teach him a lesson?


    Suddenly, he felt less afraid. Yin Rui finally heaved a sigh of relief. He sat on the sofa and looked at Yin Xun blankly.


    In the past, he still did not believe Yin Xun. Now, he admired Yin Xun from the bottom of his heart. It was wonder her career could be so successful.


    ¡°You should have figured it out yourself. Ever since you left home, I¡¯ve been sending people to keep an eye on you and report your every move to me. From the beginning, I¡¯ve already said that there¡¯s something wrong with your good pals. Since you don¡¯t believe me, I had to beat them at their own game.¡± Yin Xun smiled faintly. ¡°However, this is the only time. If you look for trouble again, 1 won¡¯t care about you..¡±

    Chapter 561: Beat Your Younger Brother


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Rui stood up and made an oath. ¡°I¡¯ll definitely listen to you in the future. As long as you say that there something wrong with my actions, I¡¯ll stop doing it!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t want promises. I only believe in practical actions.¡± Yin Xun crossed her arms and looked up at Yin Rui. ¡°Sit down. You¡¯re so tall. It¡¯s tiring to look up.¡±


    ¡°Oh.¡± Yin Rui sat down obediently and promised Yin Xun firmly, ¡°Sister, I¡¯ve decided. The time for the bet isn¡¯t up yet, and I¡¯ve lost so much money, so I¡¯ve decided to find a good job this time and experience the life of working. If possible, can 1 go to our company and start from the bottom? I¡¯m still underage and the other companies outside won¡¯t want me.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui in surprise. ¡°You really want to work? 1¡¯11 have you know, I won¡¯t give you special treatment.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. As you said, I¡¯ve experienced too little, so I¡¯m very naive. You and Dad earned all the money at home. You¡¯re not obligated to spend it for me. I want to try earning money myself. At the same time, I will train my mentality.¡±


    Yin Rui said in distress, ¡°There are many things that I don¡¯t understand now, but I know that 1 can¡¯t just ask others about this kind of thing. I have to solve it myself. So, Big Sister, please give me this chance!¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui. There seemed to be something different about her younger brother this time.


    Although she wanted to cancel the bet, since Yin Rui insisted on continuing to learn, she would naturally agree. This was a good thing.


    Perhaps, from this moment on, Yin Rui¡¯s fate had completely changed.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Yin Xun revealed a gratified smile. ¡°Then 1 won¡¯t cancel the bet for now. You just experienced a horrible thing. Rest at home for a day first. I¡¯ll send you to the company tomorrow.¡±


    Yin Rui finally heaved a sigh of relief and said gratefully to Yin Xun, ¡°Thank you, Big Sister! I thought you would be angry this time and ignore me in the future.¡±


    Yin Xun raised her hand and knocked on Yin Rui¡¯s head. ¡°How can you think that? If I was really angry, I wouldn¡¯t have paid attention to you from the start. However, if you do anything stupid again in the future, the next time you¡¯re threatened, not only will I not help you, but I¡¯ll even cover for the other party.¡±


    Yin Rui felt a stab of pain. He covered the area where Yin Xun had knocked him and said, ¡°¡­I won¡¯t do it again! But Sister¡­ You look so thin and frail, but you¡¯re pretty strong. It really hurts.¡±


    ¡°Am I?¡± Yin Xun was a little surprised. She waved her hand and looked at her tense arms. She thought about how she usually trained with Fang Yao or Tan Ai. It seemed that the results were showing.


    ¡°Yin Rui,¡± Yin Xun said, ¡°people say that you should beat your younger brother when he¡¯s still young. I¡¯ve been training a lot recently. Why don¡¯t we spar?¡±


    Yin Rui,¡±?!¡±


    The next moment, a painful cry emerged from the Yin family villa¡­


    Yin Rui was successfully rescued by Yin Xun. On Si Fan¡¯s side, after receiving the news that Gou Chang had failed and got captured, he was so angry that he kicked Wang Bei, who had come to report to him, to the ground.


    Wang Bei was upset but did not dare to say anything. Although he was apologizing, he lowered his head to hide the anger in his eyes.


    ¡°What are you bunch of trash doing? Didn¡¯t you bring him over? You had so many people. How could he escape?¡± Si Fan grabbed something and threw it on the ground as he roared.


    Wang Bei quickly explained, ¡°President Si, actually, you can¡¯t blame us. At first, everything was going according to plan. Gou Chang brought Yin Rui to a remote place where no one was around. The plan was to inject him with poison, force him to sign the contract, and finally take him away. But the police somehow came the moment we started? We didn¡¯t have time to do anything. Fortunately, our people ran away quickly. Otherwise, we would have all been arrested.¡±


    ¡°You still dare to find excuses? Trash is still trash!¡± Si Fan gritted his teeth in anger. ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that Yin Rui was chased out by Yin Xun? Since no one was looking after him and he¡¯s always with you guys, how did the police find out? Who called the police? Most importantly, they even knew where you guys are¡­¡±


    At this point, Si Fan seemed to have thought of something. ¡°Could it be that you were all deceived by Yin Rui? Maybe he had long discovered that you had ulterior motives for getting close to him, so he took the opportunity to take you down. By the way, Gou Chang has been arrested now. Will this incident be traced back to us?¡±


    Wang Bei hurriedly shook his head and reassured Si Fan. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, President Si. Our pals are quick-witted. Before we ran, we took everything we needed. Only Gou Chang was arrested. Without evidence, the police can¡¯t confirm anything.¡±


    ¡°In addition, I asked Old Chen to contact Gou Chang directly. Even 1 am not involved in this incident. Although Gou Chang knows about Old Chen, he has gone into hiding long ago. The police won¡¯t be able find him at all..¡±

 Chapter 562 - Chapter 562: Eavesdropping

    Chapter 562: Eavesdropping


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing that he would not be implicated, Si Fan was relieved.


    However, he was still a little nervous. The main issue was that he could get a pass on anything else except for drugs. If the police found out in the future, his life would really be over. No matter how many connections he had, they could not bail him out with something like this.


    ¡°You¡¯d better not drag me into this. Otherwise, you¡¯ll learn the consequences.¡± Si Fan narrowed his eyes and threatened Wang Bei.


    Wang Bei trembled and quickly said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, President Si. Even if anything happens, I¡¯ll take all the blame. No matter what, it won¡¯t affect you.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s more like it.¡± The expression on Si Fan¡¯s face finally softened a little. ¡°Now, get lost.¡±


    It was as if Wang Bei had received an imperial edict. After bidding farewell to Si Fan, he turned around and quickly walked out of the office.


    After Wang Bei left, Si Fan took out his phone and made a phone call to ask someone about this matter.


    After finding out that it was Yin Xun who called the police, he thanked the person and hung up.


    It was Yin Xun again. How many times had she ruined his plans? Si Fan¡¯s expression instantly darkened.


    This time, he could have successfully controlled Yin Rui. As long as he could do that, it would be easy for him to use the boy to destroy the Yin family. In the end, the plan was foiled again by Yin Xun.


    He was really curious about one thing. Did Yin Xun know what he was planning from the beginning?


    From the looks of it, it would be even more difficult to attack Yin Rui in the future. Yin Xun would definitely pay more attention to his movements. Fortunately, he had planted Cheng She beside Yin Xun in advance. If Cheng She was sent over right now, Yin Xun would definitely suspect him.


    Just as he was getting more and more frustrated, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was the landline at home.


    What could have happened at home? He frowned as he answered the call. It was Yin Mo¡¯s servant.


    ¡°Young Master, I was cleaning up just now and realized that Miss Yin Mo did not take the contraceptive pill that you gave her. She hid it from sight. 1 just found out!¡± The helper reported to Si Fan.


    ¡°What? Didn¡¯t 1 ask you to keep an eye on her? Didn¡¯t you feed it to her personally?¡± Si Fan hammered the table angrily. Because he used too much strength, his hand started turning red.


    The servant was shocked and quickly explained, ¡°Every time you gave it to me, I would personally feed it to her. 1 just didn¡¯t expect that she did not swallow it. After 1 left, she secretly spat it out!¡±


    Si Fan was already filled with anger because of Yin Rui. When he heard about this, he could not suppress the fury in his heart and stood up abruptly. ¡°Watch her. I¡¯ll deal with her when 1 get back!¡±


    After hanging up, Si Fan picked up his coat and rushed out of the office. However, after taking a few steps, someone called out to him.


    ¡°Si Fan, what happened? Why are you so angry?¡±


    Si Fan turned around and saw Le An standing at the corner of the corridor.


    He was holding a stack of documents in his hands and his expression did not look too great. However, when he was talking to Si Fan, he managed to maintain a smile. However, it was very stiff and looked mocking.


    ¡°Something happened at home. Anyway, I¡¯m going to get off work soon. I¡¯ll leave early.¡± Si Fan quietly calmed his heart before answering in a low voice.


    Le An smiled and said, ¡°The company stipulates that you can¡¯t leave early. Otherwise, you will be fined three times the amount for coming late. I¡¯m sorry, but only the president can leave at this time. You don¡¯t have the right to do so in your current position.¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Si Fan did not care about losing money, but he could not let slide what Le An just said. He was clearly mocking him, but he could not retort!


    ¡°Of course, if you can succeed in our wager, you¡¯ll have the right to do this when you¡¯re promoted to the position of Vice President. So, how are you doing?¡± Le An looked at Si Fan, his eyes filled with mockery. ¡°I passed by your office just now and overheard something about failure and being discovered. It seems like you¡¯ve failed.¡±


    Le An¡¯s goal was to chase Si Fan out of Blue Fox completely.


    ¡°You eavesdropped?¡± Si Fan¡¯s heart sank. He was worried that he had also heard about the drug trafficking.


    Seeing how nervous Si Fan was, Le An smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I just happened to overhear a little when 1 was passing by. Who asked you to leave the door open?¡±


    Si Fan heaved a sigh of relief and snorted. ¡°I¡¯ll definitely succeed next time.¡±


    Le An nodded. ¡°Alright, then 1 look forward to our next collaboration. Since you¡¯ve failed this time, please focus on working for Blue Fox¡¯s sake.¡±


    While the two of them were talking, Xu Lin suddenly came down from upstairs and called out to Le An, ¡°President Le, the other investors are waiting for you. They¡¯re all here..¡±

 Chapter 563 - Chapter 563: Im Not Si Fan

    Chapter 563: I¡¯m Not Si Fan


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°I¡¯ll go over now.¡± Le An nodded in acknowledgment.


    Xu Lin was very perceptive and could tell that Le An was currently talking to Si Fan. After receiving Le An¡¯s answer, he left directly.


    ¡°Manager Si, you took care of Blue Fox single-handedly. 1 don¡¯t think anyone loves Blue Fox more than you. In reality, our ultimate goal is the same. We¡¯ll fight against Xintao and become the number one in the industry. You don¡¯t have to treat me as your opponent. As long as you contribute enough, you will be promoted.¡±


    There were some things that could be conveyed with few words. After Le An finished speaking, he did not wait for Si Fan¡¯s reaction and left directly. He still had an important meeting to attend to.


    Of course, Si Fan knew what Le An meant. However, his goal was not to benefit others. He wanted to snatch Blue Fox away when the company was free from the risk of bankruptcy.


    Therefore, he had to help Blue Fox now unless Le An voluntarily gave up his position.


    Looking in the direction where Le An left, Si Fan snorted coldly and walked back to the office.


    It was obvious that Le An had deliberately reminded him to pay attention to the company¡¯s employee system just now. He was hoping to take him down a notch.


    Although Si Fan was unconvinced, Le An was still the leader. Si Fan waited until it was time to get off work before he went home and rushed to Yin Mo¡¯s room.


    Recently, Yin Mo had been mostly obedient and did not run out again, so Si Fan released her for a while and only kept her under house arrest. He served her with good food and drinks to ensure her she was healthy.


    Just as he reached the door of Yin Mo¡¯s room, the servant walked out. Si Fan was walking very quickly and the servant could not avoid in time and almost bumped into Si Fan.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Young Master!¡± The servant quickly apologized.


    ¡°Get lost!¡± Si Fan could not be bothered with her and charged straight into Yin Mo¡¯s room.


    When he went in, Yin Mo was sitting on the bed drinking water.


    Si Fan strode in front of Yin Mo and knocked the cup away. Then, he grabbed Yin Mo by the collar angrily and snarled, ¡°Yin Mo, why didn¡¯t you take the contraceptive pill 1 gave you? How dare you trick me!¡±


    Everything happened so suddenly that Yin Mo did not even have time to react.


    The cup was filled with hot water. Si Fan¡¯s slap had splashed the water all over her feet. She was about to scream when she was restrained by Si Fan. Facing the furious Si Fan, she held back her scream.


    ¡°It wasn¡¯t me, I didn¡¯t¡­¡± Yin Mo explained weakly with a pale face.


    Si Fan had no patience to listen to her explanation and spat, ¡°You¡¯re just like your sister. She schemed against me in business, and you schemed against me in my private life! It¡¯s not enough to threaten me with marriage. Don¡¯t tell me you want to threaten me by having a child! Let me tell you, Yin Mo, anyone can give birth to my child, except for you. You¡¯re not worthy!¡±


    Yin Mo was so frightened by Si Fan that she was trembling. Si Fan was so focused on Yin Mo that he did not notice that someone was secretly recording at the door.


    The servant who bumped into Si Fan was hiding at the door, filming the scene of Si Fan beating Yin Mo up.


    It was not much at first, but toward the end of the recording, Si Fan became more and more violent. Yin Mo screamed and burst into tears. The scene was horribly violent. The servant felt sorry for Yin Mo despite her initial excitement.


    Her expression was conflicted for a moment before she put her phone away. Anyway, she had the evidence now, and this was enough.


    The servant hid and sent the video to Si Xia. Not long after, Si Xia sent her a message. [You did well. Continue to keep an eye on Yin Mo for me. If anything happens, report it to me immediately. I¡¯ll reward you in the future.]


    At this moment, the Si household was in a mess. Cheng She was not doing well in Xintao either.


    The mapping project that Yin Xun had given him was actually not difficult, and creating a game with a unique style was not too problematic either. However, it was a huge challenge to combine the two.


    The main point of a digital map was to be convenient and practical. Of course, the smaller the memory requirement, the better. However, after the testing from the technical department, as long as the user entered the game, the memory would increase uncontrollably, especially when it came to 3D character models.


    He really did not know what to do, so he could only look for Yin Xun.


    ¡°President Yin, there is a problem on my side.¡± Cheng She went to Yin Xun¡¯s office. He did not even explain anything yet, but he was already starting to get nervous.


    Yin Xun looked at him and smiled. ¡°If you have any problems, just say it. We¡¯ll solve it together. I¡¯m not Si Fan. Why are you so nervous?¡±


    Cheng She smiled awkwardly. When he was at Blue Fox, every time he went to look for Si Fan when he encountered a problem, he would be scolded. Sometimes, he would even be unintentionally injured by Si Fan when he threw things around. He was instinctively afraid..

 Chapter 564 - Chapter 564: Hope To Get Rid Of Si Fan

    Chapter 564: Hope To Get Rid Of Si Fan

    ¡°President Yin, I tried a few methods, but the final result was not satisfactory. As long as we add a video game, the memory usage of the map app will increase. It will not affect the new phone models, but those older ones cannot keep up. This will surely make some users unhappy.¡± Cheng She explained the problem.


    ¡°That¡¯s easy to solve,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. ¡°What we want is to add features to the map and fill up the database in the early stages. Since the two of these things together will affect the memory, let¡¯s split them up. The game will be programmed separately, but it can be connected to the map. When the time comes, we can do it like this. When the game players use the map app, they can choose a character to accompany them. The game rules and progress will be carried over to the map app. The users will transfer their game data, and our technicians will transfer the data to the map app.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s solution, Cheng She suddenly understood. ¡°I see, there are many games out there that are on separate software, but the data can be interconnected. You just need to use the same account to log in. 1 actually didn¡¯t think of such a simple thing. President Yin, you¡¯re amazing.¡±


    Yin Xun rolled her eyes and droned, ¡°I just thought of a simple thing, but you¡¯re saying that I¡¯m amazing. Are you praising me or mocking me?¡±


    ¡°President Yin, you really know how to focus on key points,¡± Cheng She said helplessly.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m lightening the mood. Since there¡¯s nothing else, hurry up and go. The faster you do things, the better. Try to get it online within this week. I think that is possible with your ability.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    He had just praised Yin Xun. If he had known it would end like this, he would not have said anything nice to her.


    Although Yin Xun said that money was no issue as long as the speed and quality were satisfactory, it still took a lot of effort to recruit employees, especially those who were truly skilled.


    Although Yin Xun said many strict requirements, she actually did not make things difficult for him. Even when he had problems, Yin Xun would instruct him very patiently every time.


    Cheng She could not help but compare Si Fan to Yin Xun. If this was Si Fan, he would just call him trash and then ask him to find a solution himself.


    It was no wonder Xintao was so popular with job searchers. Everyone wanted to apply for a job at Xintao. With a leader like this, even he wanted to come.


    Alas, when he thought about the fact that he was Si Fan¡¯s undercover agent, Cheng She¡¯s heart sank. He did not know when he would be able to break free from Si Fan¡¯s control.


    With a sigh, Cheng She left the office.


    Yin Xun did not notice Cheng She¡¯s change of expression. She was busy reading the report Mary had just handed over. The Rhythm Short Video was in the beta stage. The effect of using celebrities was definitely good. With celebrities promoting it, the beta software alone had more than 100,000 downloads before it was released. The popularity was better than what Yin Xun imagined.


    However, the short video site was still not popular enough, so no advertisers took the initiative to collaborate. Mary felt that they should make the effort to look for advertisers.


    Other than Xintao, the projects under Yin Xun¡¯s name were not profitable. With so much investment in the early stages, Xintao alone could not support it. Even if there were investors, it was not good to spend money before they started earning.


    Looking at Mary¡¯s report clearly explaining the advantages and disadvantages and how to continue developing, Yin Xun was very satisfied and immediately agreed to the proposal.


    Mary lived up to the reputation of being her assistant. Although she was younger than Cheng She, her ability was not inferior to his. In fact, she could come up with more ideas than Cheng She. Moreover, Mary¡¯s thoughts basically matched hers, so she did not have to worry at all.


    Cheng She¡¯s ability was great, but he had many restrictions related to Blue Fox, making him unable to utilize his full ability. This would cause the project to be imperfect.


    Therefore, Yin Xun only helped him control the general direction, leaving the rest to Cheng She to decide for himself. She would give him some time to train first, and then he could fully help her with her projects.


    It would be a waste not to employ such a capable person. Since Si Fan had sent him over, she would accept the gift without reservation.


    After reading the report Mary sent, Yin Xun took out her phone and opened Rhythm Short Video.


    She had been busy with other things recently and did not pay much attention to this.


    She found the accounts of the bloggers that her company had signed contracts with and clicked on them. The numbers were better than she had imagined.


    Lin Zhu¡¯s account was very popular. Yin Xun could tell that he was not endorsed by the company. Instead, he gained fans purely with the quality of his videos.


    In just a few days, he had more than 100,000 fans. It was worth nothing that he was a beauty blogger who posted videos every day teaching girls how to put on makeup..

    Although he was a guy, there was no denying the fact that he came from a big cosmetics store. His makeup skills were excellent.


    He was also very considerate. Not only did he use his own face to draw, but he would also find practical types of makeup for each video. This was what the female viewers needed.


    Another girl called Tian Chu was also very capable. She mainly filmed pets. Coupled with the soul-soothing script, she attracted fans very quickly.


    Yin Xun did not expect that someone who looked so cold and beautiful would be so gentle when interacting with pets.


    She watched the videos of the other signed bloggers. They were all very good. Mary was indeed good at analyzing people, allowing all of them to show their strengths.


    ¡°I still think Fang Yao is so good-looking. It¡¯s a pity that he¡¯s not a streamer. With his looks, he can be one of the best draws. If we can trick him into coming here¡­ If we invite him, his account will definitely become popular in the future,¡± Yin Xun muttered as she looked at the video accounts.


    Rhythm Short Video was their software second only to Xintao. There was a lot of room for development in the future. Soon, short videos would become mainstream entertainment. As the first person to the dining table, she had to seize this opportunity.


    Therefore, she did not want to let go of anyone who might become a popular internet celebrity. Even if the other party did not sign with her, she had to show her sincerity.


    After Yin Xun approved the report, she personally went downstairs to deliver it to Mary.


    In order to make it easier to manage, Yin Xun moved the Rhythm Short Video headquarters to this building, though it was not on the same floor as Xintao.


    She took the report to the entrance of Rhythm¡¯s office. This was the first time she had come here since Rhythm moved over here.


    She did not know any of the employees here except for the few anchors. Fortunately, the positions were written on the office door. Yin Xun arrived at the door of Mary¡¯s office.


    Just as she was about to enter, she heard Liu Ying¡¯s voice coming from the room beside her. ¡°I told you there¡¯s a problem with your plan. You must either modify it or write a new one.¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s voice was trembling, as if she had been wronged and was trying her best to endure it.


    Yin Xun found this strange and walked over in confusion. The door was not closed and she saw that Liu Ying was talking to a man.


    The man looked at Liu Ying testily and snapped, ¡°Assistant Liu, I¡¯m a professional. The things 1 write are authoritative. Besides, you¡¯re just an assistant. You should leave the planning to Manager Mary, right?¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s eyes were red. She could not reply to the man.


    ¡°Alright, since you insist on waiting for Manager Mary to come back, you can just for now. I¡¯ll pass the proposal to her when she comes back,¡± Liu Ying said in a choked voice.


    The man turned around and walked toward the door. Yin Xun saw him rolling his eyes; he looked very haughty.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± Yin Xun walked into the office and asked Liu Ying.


    When Liu Ying saw Yin Xun coming over, she silently wiped her tears and smiled. ¡°It¡¯s fine. It¡¯s just not good enough for this. They don¡¯t trust me, especially that guy. He¡¯s undoubtedly capable since he was poached by Mary from another company, but he¡¯s very arrogant. He only listens to Mary. He thinks I¡¯m a nobody who came from nowhere and looks down on me.¡±


    Those who were talented would usually have some attitude. Yin Xun knew this very well.


    However, when she saw Liu Ying¡¯s aggrieved expression, she was a little surprised. In the past, Liu Ying would always take revenge and use her money to get whatever she wanted. This time, she was actually willing to suffer and did not resist.


    ¡°Do you need my help? If I show up, the employees here will listen to you. You don¡¯t have to suffer anymore,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Liu Ying shook her head. ¡°There¡¯s no need. In the past, when 1 was still at home, the people in the company respected me a lot. They said all kinds of nice things about me and said that I was very capable. Now, 1 know that they only said this because of my parents. In the workplace, everything depends on ability. Since I¡¯m going to start a company in the future, if 1 can¡¯t even take such a small grievance and resolve such a small matter, I should forget about starting a company. 1 have to rely on my own power to make them listen to me. This way, you¡¯ll feel more at ease with working with me.¡±


    Hearing Liu Ying¡¯s words, Yin Xun looked at her in disbelief and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to think this way in just a few days. But you¡¯re right. If you want to be convincing, the most important thing is to improve your ability. I believe you can do it.¡±


    As she spoke, she patted Liu Ying¡¯s shoulder to encourage her.


    Yin Xun¡¯s phone in her bag suddenly rang. She took it out and was amused when she saw the caller ID.


    ¡°I¡¯m going out to take this call. Good luck. If you need any help, feel free to look for me..¡±

    When Liu Ying saw Yin Xun suddenly smile, as if something nice had just happened, she asked curiously, ¡°What are you so happy about?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s my first time playing a spy game, so I¡¯m a little excited.¡±


    ¡°Spy game? What do you mean?¡± Liu Ying was even more confused.


    Yin Xun handed the document in his hand to Liu Ying. ¡°When Mary comes back, help me pass this to her. I¡¯ve already marked out the precautions in it. Just let her make corrections with me. 1¡¯11 be leaving now.¡±


    After Yin Xun left, the arrogant man quietly returned. This time, he spoke much more politely and did not seem so high and mighty.


    ¡°Assistant Liu, what¡¯s your relationship with that lady?¡± The man pointed at the door in the direction Yin Xun had just left.


    ¡°We¡¯re friends. What¡¯s the matter?¡± Liu Ying looked at the man in confusion, feeling awkward.


    This person was clearly looking down on her a moment ago. Why did his attitude suddenly become so nice? A thought suddenly appeared in her mind, and she immediately understood. It seemed that he must know Yin Xun¡¯s identity.


    Liu Ying added, ¡°But we¡¯re not close. She was here to look for Manager Mary.¡±


    Sure enough, after hearing her answer, the man¡¯s expression immediately turned colder again.


    He raised his chin slightly and looked at Liu Ying with his nostrils pointing at her. He said indifferently, ¡°Ah, sorry to disturb you. I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    With that, he turned around and left. He did not seem to want to say anything else.


    Liu Ying tried persuading him once more. ¡°Jia Zhuo, are you really not going to change your report?¡±


    Alas, Jia Zhuo acted as if he did not hear her and left without pausing.


    Liu Ying,¡±¡­¡±


    Alright, it seemed that it was better to wait for Mary to come back and let her deal with it.


    After leaving Liu Ying, Yin Xun left Rhythm¡¯s office and walked to the stairwell. Seeing that there was no one around, she picked up the call.


    It was a call from Chen Dong. He seemed a little emotional as said in a lowered voice, ¡°President Yin, Blue Fox has recently roped in a lot of investors. They are having a meeting right now. I heard that they are planning to deal with Xintao. This time, they seem to be serious. Even the chairman has appeared. The board of directors is mobilized, but 1 do not know what exactly the plan is. You have to be careful now.¡±


    Yin Xun agreed. ¡°Alright, I understand. Did Si Fan suspect you after you went back?¡±


    Chen Dong said proudly, ¡°He¡¯s the most conceited person there is. I spun a story that 1 was victimized by you and have nowhere else to go, so I can only ask him for help. He immediately believed me. I did as you suggested and agreed to reduce my salary, and then he allowed me to stay.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯ll have to trouble you to keep an eye on things there.¡±


    Chen Dong did not refuse. ¡°Alright, President Yin. I will continue to watch the situation here. The next time there is any news, 1 will contact you again.¡±


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun mulled over what Chen Dong had just said. Blue Fox had also pulled in a lot of investments. It seemed that Blue Fox would not be short of funds in the future.


    She could not help but feel curious about what method Blue Fox planned to use against Xintao. The last time, they tried to buy the express delivery, but that plan failed. In a business war, there were only a few options. Burning money for more activity, seizing resources, and some others. She did not know which of these Blue Fox would choose.


    However, it did not matter which one they chose. Yin Xun only needed to follow her own set path.


    Blue Fox took action very quickly. It had only been two days, but Yin Xun already knew what Blue Fox was about to do.


    Ever since Blue Fox changed management, the company improved in all aspects compared to when Si Fan was in charge.


    The new chairman had a strong background and a wide network. Many investors had started to invest in Blue Fox.


    Now, Blue Fox was no longer short of money. They had spent a lot of money to repair the company from the inside out. There were no bugs in their products now. In addition, the new chairman had a lot of personal connections. He somehow persuaded all the major phone manufacturers to let Blue Fox go online on their phones again.


    At the same time, Blue Fox also spent a lot of money on advertising. The intensity was even greater than what Xintao did back then.


    On her drive to the office, Yin Xun realized both the big screens outside the building and the billboards by the roadside were filled with advertisements for Blue Fox. There were also advertisements for Blue Fox on the webpage. Almost all the posts that criticized Blue Fox back then had been deleted. Now, the internet voices were all praising Blue Fox¡¯s activities.


    ¡°Blue Fox is undoubtedly rich now.¡± Yin Xun downloaded the software when she saw Blue Fox¡¯s advertisement.


    Not only did Blue Fox make advertisements, but they also released a promotional announcement, saying that both old and new users could participate in their new event. Everyone could receive great discounts and the event was very effective..

 Chapter 567 - Chapter 567: Its Real This Time

    Chapter 567: It¡¯s Real This Time


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As they say, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will win every battle.


    Only by understanding your opponent can you defend in all aspects. Since that was the case, Yin Xun naturally had to check out Blue Fox.


    After downloading the software, Yin Xun saw the discount announcement and understood what Blue Fox meant with the announcement that every user could get a discount.


    There was no lottery activity this time. It was anonymous, so they did not have to worry about internal nepotism. All the goods participated in the discount event, but they were divided into levels. The cheaper and more expensive ones were divided into different levels. The more expensive the things were, the greater the discount.


    Yin Xun did some calculations. Blue Fox¡¯s promotional event this time was even bigger than Xintao¡¯s. It was indeed cheaper to buy things there. Blue Fox was not lying.


    When the event was first announced, the users were still rather unimpressed. They thought that Blue Fox was going to use the same trick to deceive the consumers again. There were even users who created a post saying that if anyone was deceived, they should post the evidence. They would report Blue Fox together and try to get Blue Fox taken off the shelves.


    However, after the users tried it, they realized that the discount was indeed real. They even compared it with Xintao and realized that buying from Blue Fox was much cheaper than buying from Xintao now. Finally, they stopped criticizing Blue Fox and even started shopping on their platform.


    Consumers would go wherever they could save money. Now that Blue Fox had an event with discounts, their impression of Blue Fox immediately changed. Everyone said that Blue Fox had finally found its conscience and started to value its customers.


    This time, Blue Fox spent a lot of money and attracted many new users. The old users who went to Xintao also returned to Blue Fox.


    Blue Fox was very popular now. The customers were growing rapidly, and its reputation had been restored.


    Si Fan had been keeping an eye on Blue Fox¡¯s movements. Although he had lost the bet and promised that he would not do anything to sabotage Blue Fox, he was not the type of person to keep his word. How could he just sit by and watch?


    In any case, no matter what he did, as long as he did not get caught by Le An, he would be fine.


    In addition to keeping an eye on Blue Fox, he had also been observing Xintao¡¯s movements. He felt that with Yin Xun¡¯s personality, she would definitely continue to burn money when she saw Blue Fox spending so much to win over customers.


    As long as Blue Fox and Xintao started to throw all their money into this fight, both sides would definitely suffer losses in the end. When that happened, it would be time for him to make a move.


    Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, he did not see any such announcements from Xintao. It seemed that he could not sit back and watch the show anymore. He did not know if Xintao was having financial difficulties or if Yin Xun did not know about Blue Fox¡¯s activities. Si Fan was puzzled and immediately called Cheng She.


    At this moment, Cheng She was struggling with how to make the video game according to Yin Xun¡¯s requirements. Yin Xun wanted both quality and speed. It sounded simple, but how could it be so easy to find an excellent modeler and artist?


    To create the game that Yin Xun wanted in a few days was even harder than being a spy.


    While he was struggling with the problem, his phone suddenly rang.


    When Cheng She saw that it was Si Fan, he quickly hid to the side to answer the call.


    ¡°President Si, why are you calling me during work hours?¡± Cheng Shi asked softly.


    Si Fan reprimanded him in a low voice, ¡°I¡¯m your boss. I can call you whenever


    1 want. Do you have any objections?¡±


    Cheng She quickly said, ¡°No, no.¡±


    However, he was complaining in his heart. He was an undercover agent. If someone heard that he was talking to Si Fan, even the stupidest person would realize that he had ulterior motives.


    Although Yin Xun already knew that he was a spy, the other employees did not know.


    Si Fan did not know what Cheng She was thinking and was not in the mood to argue. He asked impatiently, ¡°How¡¯s that thing 1 asked you to do?¡±


    ¡°Huh? What did you ask me to do?¡± Cheng She asked in confusion.


    He was afraid that Si Fan would scold him, so he thought hard about it. He could not think of any new missions Si Fan had given him.


    ¡°You need to get Yin Xun to burn money to challenge Blue Fox!¡± Si Fan saw that Cheng She seemed to be oblivious and immediately said unhappily, ¡°Didn¡¯t you pay attention to Blue Fox¡¯s situation? What exactly are you doing? I asked you to be a spy, not to go on a vacation! Blue Fox is imitating what Xintao did back then with their current event. Why isn¡¯t there any news from Xintao?¡±


    Cheng She grinned at his phone. Ever since he was instructed by Yin Xun to handle the map and game project, he had been so busy every day that he did not have the energy or time to pay attention to anything else.


    Xintao did not require its employees to work overtime. He left on time every day, so he had no chance to gather information in the office..

 Chapter 568 - Chapter 568: Make Them Spend Money

    Chapter 568: Make Them Spend Money


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, he did not dare to tell Si Fan about this situation directly.


    He thought for a moment and said helplessly, ¡°President Si, Yin Xun has asked me to be in charge of that map game. Didn¡¯t you say that you only wanted Yin Xun to burn money? You didn¡¯t say that it had to be spending money on Xintao. Anyway, we¡¯re still using up Yin Xun¡¯s money. Is there any difference if it¡¯s spent on the game?¡±


    He thought his answer was perfect, but Si Fan was still angry.


    ¡°Are you an idiot? Did you not understand what I mean? I¡¯m asking you to think of a way to make Yin Xun and Blue Fox fight each other in a contest of spending money! I don¡¯t want just one company to fall, 1 want both of them to fall together. Only then will 1 have a chance to take back my dominance of Blue Fox!¡±


    Si Fan spot, ¡°Can¡¯t you tell that Blue Fox is spending so much money to challenge Xintao?! Now, Blue Fox is getting more and more popular and they are getting more users.¡±


    Cheng She was stunned for a moment. Blue Fox had started to burn money? However, he did not see any abnormal reaction from Yin Xun.


    Could it be that she still did not know? No, he had to tell Yin Xun about this.


    ¡°Alright, President Si. 1 understand. 1¡¯11 go and check on Yin Xun now.¡± Cheng She hung up after saying that to Si Fan.


    It just so happened that he had something to discuss with Yin Xun, so he could talk about this matter as well.


    Cheng She arrived at Yin Xun¡¯s office. The door was not closed, and he saw Yin Xun sitting inside playing with her phone.


    After hearing a light knock on the door, Yin Xun looked up at Cheng She and said, ¡°Come in and sit. If there¡¯s anything, wait until I¡¯m done buying things.¡±


    Cheng She nodded and sat at the side, waiting for Yin Xun to finish.


    He had no intention of peeking at Yin Xun¡¯s phone, but Yin Xun was not hiding it at all. She held her phone openly, so Cheng Shi saw the screen with a glance. He was a little surprised. Why did that interface look so much like Blue Fox?


    ¡°President Yin, are you using Blue Fox to shop?¡± Cheng She asked her tentatively.


    ¡°Yes, Blue Fox has been very active recently. The things there are really cheap¡­¡± Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Not bad, not bad. I¡¯ve saved more than two hundred yuan from buying all these things.¡±


    Cheng She was a little speechless. He reminded Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, Xintao is your company, you know.¡±


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter who I¡¯m working with. It¡¯s great as long as I can save money. Why wouldn¡¯t I take advantage of this?¡± Yin Xun said indifferently. ¡°It seems that Blue Fox has really invested a lot this time. They¡¯re selling a lot of things at the base price and even gave me a bunch of free gifts. It¡¯s much better to use Blue Fox to buy things now than Xintao.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    It seemed that Yin Xun did not take Blue Fox seriously. What else could he say?


    However, when he thought of the mission that Si Fan had given him, he still deliberated for a moment before asking, ¡°President Yin, now that Blue Fox has won over so many users from Xintao, the entire internet is in their palm now. Are you really not going to do anything to fight them?¡±


    ¡°Why should we fight them?¡± Yin Xun smiled. ¡°1 have no intention of dealing with Blue Fox from the start. The market cake is so big that Xintao won¡¯t be able to eat it all. It doesn¡¯t matter even if there are a few more online shopping companies. If the users are all going to Blue Fox, that¡¯s because Blue Fox is doing well. Besides, Blue Fox has pulled in many investors now. I won¡¯t gain anything by fighting them head-on. It¡¯s better to improve the service of my own company and convince the users to stay willingly.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Cheng She was stunned. He had said this to Si Fan before, but he had been scolded harshly in return. He did not expect Yin Xun to have the same thoughts as him.


    Improving themselves was the logical move. Si Fan only wanted to drag the enemy down with him. This narrow-minded idea would not last him for long. While Cheng She was in a daze, Yin Xun asked, ¡°Why were you looking for me?¡±


    ¡°Oh, it is about the game.¡± Cheng Shi quickly handed the report over to Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, 1 noticed that something seems to have happened within Digital Navigation recently. It looks like their company¡¯s legal representative has changed. Do you think this will affect us?¡±


    When Cheng She said that, Yin Xun suddenly remembered the matter with Ye Wen. Ever since she helped Ye Wen investigate her husband¡¯s mistress, she had not contacted her. She did not even know how she was doing now.


    However, since there was a change in the legal representative over there, perhaps Ye Wen had succeeded. She decided to contact Ye Wen later and ask about the current situation.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. We can delay the mapping part. How¡¯s the game going?¡± Yin Xun flipped open the report and looked at it.


    Cheng She¡¯s expression immediately sank and he said helplessly, ¡°President Yin, the deadline that you have given us is really too short. 1 have already tried my best to recruit people. With our current manpower, it would take at least two months to complete everything. The main problem is that modeling is too time-consuming. We have only managed to recruit three modelers..¡±

 Chapter 569 - Chapter 569: Spending As Much As You Can

    Chapter 569: Spending As Much As You Can


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Since we don¡¯t have enough people, we¡¯ll increase the recruitment fees. No one will say no to more money. If we can¡¯t recruit anyone, we can only assume that money isn¡¯t enough. You don¡¯t have to worry about saving money. As long as it¡¯s for the company, it¡¯s fine. Besides, 1 think Si Fan would be happy to see such a situation.¡±


    After Yin Xun finished reading the report, she looked at Cheng She with a smile. ¡°1¡¯11 only provide the funds. You¡¯ll be in charge of the rest.¡±


    Actually, Cheng She had done very well in this project overall. The only problem was that the team was too small and lacked manpower. As long as this was resolved, it should be smooth sailing.


    Cheng She suddenly felt even more helpless. He was an undercover agent. Was it really okay to tell a spy that he could spend money as he pleased? Was she not afraid he would start getting ideas?


    No, that was not the most important thing now. The most important thing was related to Xintao.


    Cheng She thought about it for a few seconds before he continued to ask the same question. ¡°President Yin, are you really not going to do anything about Blue Fox? Right now, Blue Fox is rich and imposing. After the event ends, if they have not fully destroyed Xintao, they will definitely use other methods. What if the result harms Xintao?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. No matter what Blue Fox does, I have a way to deal with it,¡± Yin Xin said confidently.


    Seeing that it was impossible to persuade the level-headed Yin Xun to fight Blue Fox, Cheng She could only give up.


    When he was in the office, Cheng She did not dare to contact Si Fan for fear of being discovered by others. When he got home after work at night, he called Si Fan.


    ¡°President Si, I¡¯ve tried to persuade Yin Xun during the day. I¡¯ve even told her about how Blue Fox was challenging Xintao, but Yin Xun doesn¡¯t intend to follow suit with splashing money,¡± Cheng She reported mechanically.


    Si Fan asked, ¡°Why? Are they out of money or are they afraid?¡±


    Cheng She sighed in his heart. With Si Fan¡¯s brain, he could only think of these two reasons.


    ¡°Neither,¡± he said. ¡°She didn¡¯t even take the threat personally. She even downloaded Blue Fox and used the discount coupons to buy things.¡±


    Si Fan was silent for a moment. He did not expect Yin Xun to give Blue Fox money. Xintao and Blue Fox were rivals. This was unheard of.


    ¡°As expected, I shouldn¡¯t have any expectations for her. What a stupid woman. She¡¯s only slightly better than Yin Mo,¡± Si Fan sneered and said disdainfully.


    Cheng She rolled his eyes. Si Fan had always mocked Yin Xun for being incapable, but had he not lost to Yin Xun himself? What right did a defeated opponent have to speak ill of Yin Xun?


    Even Cheng She did not realize the changes in himself. Now, his favor was leaning more and more toward Yin Xun.


    After all, during this period when he was working at Xintao, even though Yin Xun knew he was a spy, she did not treat him badly. His salary and overtime pay were all paid normally. If there were any problems, she would help to resolve them. She would not scold him like Si Fan.


    Not wanting to argue with Si Fan on this matter, he changed the topic. ¡°President Si, since Yin Xun doesn¡¯t intend to waste money to deal with Blue Fox, what do you plan to do?¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s take a look at the situation first. We¡¯ll talk about the specifics later. Just wait for my news. As for the game you mentioned, since Yin Xun left you in charge of it, spend as much money as you can on it.¡± After saying that, he hung up without waiting for Cheng She¡¯s response.


    The call ended too abruptly. Cheng She wanted to ask more about Blue Fox¡¯s situation, but since Si Fan already hung up, he could only forget about it.


    Just as he put down his phone, he suddenly remembered that Blue Fox¡¯s app was active now. If Yin Xun could use Blue Fox, then it should be fine for him to use it as an employee.


    He opened the Blue Fox app and bought a lot of daily necessities. Indeed, he managed to save a lot of money. He suddenly hoped that Blue Fox¡¯s promotional event would last longer. That way, it would be cheaper to buy things in the future.


    After buying his things, he was also curious about the effect of Blue Fox spending so much. Hence, he clicked on the few products that were the most popular. There were monthly sales on them. Only then did he realize that not many of the popular products were sold. Could it be because it was the first day?


    Cheng She opened the comments section and webpage. He realized that many of the old users had indeed returned. The app was very popular and received many good reviews and praises.


    It was just the beginning. There were no obvious changes. He would be able to tell properly in a few days.


    Soon, three days passed.


    For the past few days, other than Blue Fox burning money for their activities, nothing else happened.


    Cheng She was still worried about the game, but this time, it was not because he could not find good artists and modelers. On the contrary, because Yin Xun had given him too much money, many outstanding people came to apply.


    By now, the art circle had already spread the news that the people in Xintao were stupidly rich. They had all called their friends over to apply for the job.


    However, although there were many applicants, Cheng She still chose the people seriously. He was determined not to accept those who were not skilled. Since he had taken all this money, he had to do his job well..

 Chapter 570 - Chapter 570: Initial Good Feedback

    Chapter 570: Initial Good Feedback


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    For the game, the feedback from players was very important. Cheng She first sent the character image he had designed to the official account. The first character he made was the game¡¯s representative character, the valiant female general¡ªHua Mulan.


    This game was based on famous scholars from ancient times. Everyone was fond of them, to begin with. If they designed the characters nicely, Yin Xun said, it would be very easy for them to explode in popularity.


    When this character was first released, Cheng She was on tenterhooks. Although he had already shown it to Yin Xun and received her approval, he was still afraid that everyone would not like it.


    Hua Mulan was a hero in everyone¡¯s hearts since she represented the pride of a woman. If she did not suit everyone¡¯s taste, she would be criticized to the ground.


    Another issue was that online games nowadays focus on sexiness. It was not that there were no historical figures like this in the other game, but they were all designed to be beautiful women and muscly men. Nevertheless, everyone liked them.


    Instead, the character he designed was wrapped tightly from head to toe. Other than her head, not a single part was exposed.


    However, it was precisely because her clothes were tight that the curves of her figure were even more obvious. Coupled with her cold face, there was a sense of contrasting beauty.


    Unexpectedly, as soon as the image was posted, someone started sharing their feelings.


    [Oh my god, Sister Mulan is so handsome! This is my female general, Sister Mulan. Other games that expose their chests and butts in gauze don¡¯t capture the look of a general!]


    [You had better not look at gender, Sister! Although I¡¯m a girl, I¡¯m not inferior to men!]


    [From the looks of it, this game suits my taste, at least for this character. Let¡¯s see what the later characters are like. If they¡¯re good, I¡¯ll have a few more wives.]


    There were many similar comments. Seeing that they liked Hua Mulan¡¯s image, Cheng She finally heaved a sigh of relief.


    It seemed that Yin Xun was right. There were not only boys in the gaming market, but also many girls. Everyone liked beautiful characters and loved to play games.


    Cheng She was greatly encouraged. Since Yin Xun said that both male and female players had to be taken care of, he knew what characters to make next.


    These few days, his nerves had been tense and he did not notice that Si Fan had not called him. Could it be that he had suddenly changed his mind? Thinking about it, it was impossible. Si Fan was someone who wanted the world to be in chaos. He was probably keeping something in secret.


    However, not getting calls from Si Fan made him feel much more relaxed.


    Cheng She wanted to report the game situation to Yin Xun, but when he arrived at Yin Xun¡¯s office, he realized that Yin Xun was not there, so he had to drop the idea. Just as he was about to return to his office, he saw Mi Jin walking toward him.


    ¡°Do you need President Yin for something?¡± Mi Jin looked at Cheng She warily. He knew that Cheng She was an undercover agent.


    Yin Xun¡¯s office was unlocked, and Cheng She had just come out of his office. Mi Jin was worried that he had taken something, so he looked him up and down.


    Cheng She could see Mi Jin¡¯s intentions, so he explained helplessly, ¡°I just wanted to report the progress of the game to President Yin, and I didn¡¯t know she was not around. Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll wait for her to return before I come again.¡±


    ¡°President Yin has something on today and won¡¯t be coming. You can look for her tomorrow.¡± After Mi Jin finished speaking, he locked the door of Yin Xun¡¯s office.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    It seemed that Mi Jin respected his undercover identity very much. That was not bad. Cheng She suddenly felt that he had succeeded a little.


    While the two of them were talking, there was a clap of thunder outside. It was very soft and seemed to be very far away. Not long after, it began to rain.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was being dragged by Qu Lin to buy clothes. Qu Lin had originally planned to bring Yin Xun around, but she did not expect the sudden rain. The two of them did not bring umbrellas.


    Left with no choice, they could only hide in a luxury shop nearby to avoid the rain while taking a look at some clothes.


    Although Yin Xun was a little exasperated at being called out on a workday, she could not say anything. After all, Qu Lin was her sugar parent.


    Last time, Qu Lin said that she wanted Yin Xun to accompany her to a gathering. It had been a few days since the agreed time, so Yin Xun thought that the meeting had been canceled. In the end, Qu Lin called her last night and said that because she previously caught a cold, the meeting had been postponed to today.


    The gathering started at night. Qu Lin wanted Yin Xun to accompany her for a whole day. Seeing that Qu Lin had just recovered from her illness, Yin Xun did not refuse. Anyway, there was nothing major in the company recently.


    ¡°Someone like you who often attends gatherings and banquets actually lacks gowns?¡± Qu Lin asked Yin Xun as they sat on the sofa. They were looking at the model in front of them who was wearing ready-made clothes for Qu Lin to choose from..

 Chapter 571 - Chapter 571:I Like Handsome Men

    Chapter 571:I Like Handsome Men


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Qu Lin smiled and said, ¡°These are all for one-time use. They¡¯re worn out after the second use. I didn¡¯t bring you here just to buy clothes for myself. Choose one too. When 1 first saw you at the banquet, 1 thought you were a down-and-out young lady from some family who would actually wear seasonal clothes.¡±


    YinXun,¡±¡­¡±


    As expected of the daughter of a rich man. She had only bought that gown not long ago and it was so expensive. In Qu Lin¡¯s eyes, however, it was actually an unpresentable dress.


    Although the money needed to buy a gown was not a big deal to Yin Xun, she was used to being thrifty. She always felt that it was fine as long as the clothes were clean and wearable.


    In the end, under Qu Lin¡¯s insistence, Yin Xun bought a simple dress.


    ¡°Tsk tsk, I didn¡¯t expect a big boss like you to be so frugal. You¡¯re different from the people 1 know.¡± Qu Lin looked at Yin Xun and said. It was hard to tell if she was really praising her or ridiculing her. ¡°But you¡¯re good-looking and have a nice figure. You¡¯re not picky about clothes since you look good in anything. To be honest, I¡¯m a little jealous.¡±


    ¡°I also think that my figure is not bad. If the company can¡¯t continue in the future, I can try my luck as an actress,¡± Yin Xun said brazenly.


    Qu Lin,¡±¡­¡±


    She did not expect Yin Xun to be so honest.


    The two of them finished picking their clothes and planned to leave. The rain outside was a sudden storm; it had just rained for a while before it ended. Yin Xun and Qu Lin took a car to the gathering place, which was a booked five-star hotel. It was not far and they arrived very quickly.


    Qu Lin had booked a room in advance so that it would be more convenient for her to change clothes.


    ¡°Qu Lin, didn¡¯t you say that this was just an ordinary gathering of friends? Why did you buy a gown?¡± Yin Xun asked Qu Lin.


    Although Qu Lin had bought the kind of gown that could be worn daily, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was very luxurious.


    Qu Lin said as she changed, ¡°You¡¯ll know when the time comes.¡±


    After the two of them changed, they went to the private room that was booked in advance.


    The two of them stood at the door. Qu Lin was not in a rush to enter. Instead, she looked at the people inside and frowned slightly. ¡°Strange, why isn¡¯t he here yet?¡±


    If Qu Lin did not go in, Yin Xun could not go in either. She asked in confusion, ¡°Who?¡±


    She realized that Qu Lin had been acting a little strange since yesterday, but Qu Lin did not say anything after being asked several times. It was as if she was doing something bad.


    ¡°Nothing, nothing. Let¡¯s go.¡± Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s question, Qu Lin immediately smiled and pulled Yin Xun in.


    When they entered, Yin Xun realized that there was someone she knew inside. ¡°Linlin, isn¡¯t this a gathering between us? Why are you bringing outsiders?¡± The person who spoke was Ding Shan. She still remembered the argument she had with Yin Xun last time and looked at Yin Xun with an unfriendly gaze.


    Qu Lin said angrily, ¡°She¡¯s not an outsider. She¡¯s my sister-in-law.¡±


    YinXun,¡±¡­¡±


    She seemed to realize why Qu Lin had insisted on bringing her here. If she was not wrong, Qu Lu must be here too.


    Yin Xun looked around the room but did not see Qu Lu. Could she have guessed wrongly?


    Wu Fei, who was sitting beside Ding Shan, sneered and said, ¡°Linlin, Lulu is here too. She¡¯s Young Master Fang¡¯s fiancee. Why do you always side with outsiders?¡± She looked at Yin Xun with disgust.


    Yin Xun did not care. She was not familiar with these people. As long as they did not provoke her, there was no problem. So what if they had unfriendly gazes? Gazes were not tangible. Moreover, these people were not her friends. There was no need to take them seriously.


    Yin Xun and Qu Lin walked to their seats and waited for the rest of the people to arrive.


    Ding Shan and Wu Fei were undoubtedly Qu Lu¡¯s best friends. Originally, they did not hate Yin Xun that much, but after hearing Qu Lin address her as Sister-in-law, the disgust on their faces was no longer concealed. They did not stop glaring at Yin Xun.


    They did not dare to curse Yin Xun directly. They only used indirect words to criticize her. They also whispered to the people beside them. After a while, the people who were talking to the two of them looked at Yin Xun with strange expressions.


    Initially, Yin Xun was not bothered by such matters until Ding Shan¡¯s whispers became louder and louder. She even heard Ding Shan say that she was seducing Fang Yao.


    They were actually spreading rumors about her right in her face. Yin Xun¡¯s gaze instantly turned cold.


    ¡°Miss Ding Shan, I¡¯m sorry. No matter how much you look at me, I won¡¯t respond to you. I only like handsome men,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    As soon as Yin Xun finished her sentence, everyone, including Qu Lin, looked at Yin Xun in shock and curiosity.


    What did Yin Xun just say? Ding Shan was interested in her? This was a huge shock..

    ¡°Yin Xun, what are you talking about!¡± Ding Shan exploded when she heard Yin Xun¡¯s words. She stood up and questioned Yin Xun.


    ¡°Yin Xun?¡± Hearing this name, some people could not sit still anymore.


    A thin boy with glasses stood up and asked Yin Xun, ¡°Are you the president of Xintao, Yin Xun?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and nodded. ¡°That¡¯s me.¡±


    The man immediately became extremely excited, and his face turned a little red. ¡°Hello, I¡¯ve heard a lot about you. I¡¯ve heard all about your deeds, but you don¡¯t usually accept interviews, so I haven¡¯t seen your true appearance. I didn¡¯t expect you to be so outstanding at work and so beautiful at the same time.¡±


    In fact, his father had even gone to the Yin family to propose marriage. When he found out, he had a fierce argument with his father. He had never even seen Yin Xun before. He had only heard from his friends that Yin Xun was very ugly, so he strongly objected to the idea.


    Now that he saw Yin Xun¡¯s appearance, no one would deny that she was a big star. He instantly regretted his actions.


    The other men also looked at Yin Xun in admiration.


    In fact, in their circle, it was not rare for someone to have a rich family or a position. However, Yin Xun was young and relied on her own ability to start her business from scratch. In a short period of time, he established Xintao and defeated Blue Fox. What shocked them the most was her talent. Of course, there was another point. She was beautiful on top of being capable.


    Although these young heirs loved playing around, they were still very concerned about business matters. Many of them were paying attention to the appearance of such a genius.


    In their parents¡¯ words, Yin Xun was still the child of another family. A few families here had already gone to Yin Xun¡¯s household to suggest marriage.


    Back then, they ail heard that Yin Xun was especially ugly and the complete opposite of her sister, Yin Mo. Therefore, everyone strongly opposed their parents¡¯ proposal on their behalf. Now that they saw Yin Xun, they immediately regretted it.


    When Ding Shan saw all these people having such a big reaction when she called out Yin Xun¡¯s name, she immediately said indignantly, ¡°Hey, what¡¯s wrong with you guys? Isn¡¯t she just a small business owner? Which one of your families doesn¡¯t own a company? Why are you so fascinated by her?¡±


    ¡°Miss Yin¡¯s ability is not something that an ordinary person achieve. Have you never used Xintao to buy things before? ATiss Yin is not an ordinary person to be able to come up with such operations,¡± the bespectacled man said to Ding Shan in a low voice.


    ¡°Oh right.¡± The bespectacled man looked at Yin Xun and smiled. ¡°I was wondering if we could add each other as friends. How about using Xintao to add each other¡¯s contacts?¡±


    As soon as the bespectacled man finished speaking, the others also spoke.


    Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Qu Lin quickly stood up and said. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I accidentally broke Yin Xun¡¯s phone just now, so you can¡¯t add her as a friend. Let¡¯s wait for next time.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Qu Lin in confusion. When did her phone break? This was a good opportunity to expand her connections! However, if she took out her phone now, it would only embarrass Qu Lin. Hence, she looked at Qu Lin sadly and could only give up this opportunity.


    They were all rich young masters. If she could rope them all in in the future, she would be able to start a few more projects. However, this was fine too. There would be opportunities in the future, she comforted herself with this thought.


    Seeing that everyone was so friendly to Yin Xun, Ding Shan piped up indignantly, ¡°Be friends with her? With her character, how could you dare to be her friend? She just framed me. Yin Xun, tell me clearly, when have 1 ever said I liked you!¡±


    Yin Xun said slowly, ¡°That day, you said there was a problem with the company¡¯s liquidity and wanted me to help you. Why are you embarrassed now? Don¡¯t worry, since everyone here is your friend, they definitely won¡¯t mind your sexual orientation. Whether you like men or women, it¡¯s not a reason for others to laugh at you, so you don¡¯t have to worry.¡±


    Qu Lin was even more shocked than Ding Shan. She looked at Yin Xun and was about to ask something when Yin Xun kicked her lightly. She immediately understood that Yin Xun was lying.


    ¡°Nonsense, my company is doing fine! And I like you? What a joke. You¡¯re the person I hate the most!¡± Ding Shan looked at the curious face of the person beside her and felt a little guilty. Yin Xun was telling the truth about the company. If this matter was taken as the truth, everyone would really believe that she liked girls. Although she did not think homosexuality was much of a big deal, she simply did not like Yin Xun.


    She quickly asked, ¡°Do you have evidence about this?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Why do I need evidence? It¡¯s a fact that you¡¯re wooing me.. Why? Do you not dare to admit it after all you¡¯ve done?¡±

 Chapter 573 - Chapter 573: Defamation

    Chapter 573: Defamation


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    There were people in the crowd who started to discuss in a low voice. ¡°No wonder she had such a bitter look on her face towards Miss Yin just now. It looks like she was rejected.¡±


    ¡°Is that what we should be talking about? Shouldn¡¯t the main point be the Ding Corporation¡¯s financial difficulties? Is Ding Shan¡¯s family going bankrupt?¡±


    ¡°It seems possible. Oh right, have you noticed that Ding Shan hasn¡¯t been buying luxury goods recently? She¡¯s wearing the same style as before. It seems like her sports car is gone too. I haven¡¯t seen her drive it recently.¡±


    This was how it was in this industry. Everyone could be nice together because of their common interests.


    Even if they were true friends with Ding Shan, they would still have some concerns when they heard that Ding Shan¡¯s company was in trouble. After all, they did not want to lend money.


    Seeing that her friends were starting to discuss her company, Ding Shan quickly interrupted and asked Yin Xun hatefully, ¡°Where¡¯s the evidence? If you can¡¯t produce evidence, I¡¯ll sue you for defamation!¡±


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°You want evidence? Then let me ask you, you said that I seduced Fang Yao. Where¡¯s the evidence?¡±


    Ding Shan sneered. ¡°Why? Do you not dare to admit what you¡¯ve done? Who here doesn¡¯t know that Fang Yao is Lulu¡¯s fiance? I have evidence of you seducing Young Master Fang. Just wait. Qu Lu has sent me the photos of the two of you. It¡¯s a good opportunity for everyone to know that you, the President of Xintao, actually seduced someone else¡¯s fiancee.¡±


    After Ding Shan finished speaking, she took out her phone and tried to find the photo.


    When Yin Xun heard about a photo, she immediately thought of the photos that Qu Lu had secretly taken when tailing her. Her eyes narrowed slightly.


    However, when Ding Shan opened the photo album, Yin Xun saw that her face turned green. She could not help but wonder what was going on.


    ¡°Where¡¯s the photo? I¡¯m sure 1 saved it. Qu Lu sent it to me back then. How could it not be there?¡± Ding Shan muttered.


    Yin Xun was sitting next to Ding Shan. The others did not hear Ding Shan¡¯s words, but she heard them. She could not help but raise her eyebrows. The photo was gone? Even if there was a photo, it did not matter. She and Fang Yao did not cross any lines.


    ¡°Yin Xun seduced me? Why didn¡¯t I hear about this?¡± Fang Yao¡¯s voice suddenly came from the door. Yin Xun was stunned for a moment and looked up. Fang Yao walked in, dressed in sportswear.


    It was not just Yin Xun. Everyone present was shocked by Fang Yao¡¯s sudden appearance. Fang Yao had never been to their usual gatherings.


    When Qu Lin saw Fang Yao coming over, she smiled and walked in front of him. She dragged him to her seat while she went to another empty seat.


    Yin Xun looked at Qu Lin¡¯s behavior and immediately understood what she had planned when coming here. If she was calling Fang Yao, she could have said so. Why was she being so mysterious?


    When Ding Shan saw that the main character of the rumors had arrived, she was so nervous that she did not know what to do. She would dare to provoke Yin Xun, but she did not dare to provoke Fang Yao.


    She stuttered as she greeted Fang Yao. ¡°Young Master Fang, why are you here?¡±


    Fang Yao looked at her indifferently and sat down in Qu Lin¡¯s seat. ¡°I¡¯m here to listen to the rumors about me. Do you have any evidence of what you just said? If not, can I sue you for defamation?¡±


    It was obvious that Fang Yao was speaking up for Yin Xun. Ding Shan quickly explained, ¡°No, no. 1 was just joking with Miss Yin. Please don¡¯t take it to heart.¡±


    After saying that, she lowered her head and stopped looking at everyone.


    ¡°Ding Shan, this is your fault. When you were framed, you were so angry and asked for evidence. Since you knew that you were framed, how could you frame Miss Yin? This is unreasonable.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Luckily, we all know Miss Yin¡¯s character. That¡¯s why we were not deceived. If news of this gets out, you will be in big trouble.¡±


    Hearing her friends¡¯ accusations, Ding Shan did not dare to say another word.


    At this moment, she wanted to leave. However, doing so would be admitting her guilt. Hence, she could only brace herself and keep sitting there.


    ¡°Is this okay?¡± Fang Yao suddenly turned to ask Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun was stunned and did not react for a moment. It was not until Fang Yao repeated himself that she realized that he was helping her clarify the truth and asked if she still needed Ding Shan to apologize.


    ¡°Since everyone knows it was a lie, it¡¯s fine,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    She looked up and saw that the others were all looking at Ding Shan with disdain.


    What they hated the most was people around them spreading rumors. After all, everyone¡¯s status was about on par with each other. Who knew when it would be their turn to be the target of rumors? From today onward, they will probably keep a distance from Ding Shan.


    Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang. It was a message from her Xintao account. Yin Xun opened it and saw that it was from Qu Lin..

 Chapter 574 - Chapter 574: Is He Your Biological Brother?

    Chapter 574: Is He Your Biological Brother?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    [How about it? I called Brother Fang Yao here to help you clear up the rumors. Is that good enough? You aren¡¯t aware, but this matter has gone viral in our circle. Everyone is talking about you and him. Even my Auntie Lin knew about it and wanted to ask you about it. But don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve calmed her down. That Ding Shan is in cahoots with my sister. She¡¯s always thinking of plotting against others.]


    Looking at the message from Qu Lin, Yin Xun immediately understood what she meant.


    She replied, [Thank you. I¡¯ll repay you in the future.]


    After replying, she looked up and smiled at Qu Lin.


    Fang Yao saw Yin Xun smiling at Qu Lin, not knowing what they were talking about. He suddenly asked Yin Xun in a low voice, ¡°What do you think of my looks?¡±


    ¡°?¡± Yin Xun did not know why Fang Yao would suddenly ask this question, so she nodded and whispered back, ¡°You¡¯re very handsome, that¡¯s why I¡¯ve always wanted to bring you to Rhythm Short Video as a blogger. With your looks, you¡¯ll definitely get countless fans.¡±


    ¡°Is that all?¡± Fang Yao pressed.


    Yin Xun was a little puzzled. Could it be that Fang Yao felt that being a video blogger was a waste of his beauty? With that in mind, she added in a low voice, ¡°You have the looks to be a celebrity. After all, you¡¯re the full package. You¡¯re so good-looking that you don¡¯t have to worry about being exploited by anyone.¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    What was he expecting from Yin Xun?


    As the two of them were talking, Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang. She took it out and saw that it was a call from Yu Tu.


    Yin Xun left after informing Fang Yao. She only answered the call when she reached the end of the corridor.


    ¡°President Yin, is Yin Rui your younger brother?¡± Yu Tu¡¯s nervous voice came through the phone.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Yes, he¡¯s going to the construction site to train himself. I thought this was a good opportunity, so 1 didn¡¯t tell you. Why? Did something happen to him?¡±


    Yu Tu heaved a sigh of relief. ¡°No, nothing happened. I just wanted to confirm with you. He¡¯s so young and can¡¯t do construction work at all. I almost fired him. Later, he said that he was your brother. 1 thought he had committed some mistake and sneaked away from home.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. He doesn¡¯t want the salary anyway, so you just have to keep him around. But ask the people at the construction site to keep an eye on him. Don¡¯t let anything happen to him, and don¡¯t let strangers approach him,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    Yu Tu said assuringly, ¡°I understand, President Yin. However, since he does not want his salary and is unable to get any work done, I¡¯ll just let him stay around. I will not assign him any work.¡±


    Yin Xun hurriedly said, ¡°No, you can¡¯t cut back on that just because of his special identity. Do what you have to do. In fact, you can also give him more work. As long as he doesn¡¯t get worked to the bone and doesn¡¯t get injured, it¡¯s fine.¡±


    Although Yin Rui promised he would not make a mistake again, he never really felt any suffering. If he returned to school in the future, he would probably not be able to take this working life anymore. Since that was the case, they might as well take this opportunity to let him suffer more. The boy needed to understand that everything was not easy.


    In any case, Yin Rui had chosen this path himself. He hoped that doing this would really train his perseverance.


    ¡°Alright, President Yin, I understand.¡± Yu Tu coughed lightly, and he was a little embarrassed as he asked, ¡°President Yin, forgive me for asking one more question. Yin Rui is your biological younger brother, right?¡±


    It was not enough for Yin Rui to do rough labor, but Yin Xun actually asked him to ¡°take care¡± of him more. This was very ruthless.


    ¡°Only through hardship can one rise above others. 1 want to train his perseverance, so I¡¯ll leave him to you. 1 hope that the next time I see him, his personality will have changed,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Although she said that Yu Tu could assign Yin Rui more work, she knew that Yu Tu would not really make things difficult for Yin Rui.


    Yu Tu was a very good judge of character. As long as he was the one calling the shots, he would know what to do.


    ¡°Okay, President Yin, 1 understand.¡± Yu Tu agreed and hung up the phone.


    It was much safer for Yin Rui to be at the construction site than outside. Yin Xun felt more at ease. After finishing the call with Yu Tu, Yin Xun prepared to go back.


    However, just as she was about to leave, she heard a cry from the corridor. Yin Xun was not interested in meddling in other people¡¯s business and was about to leave. However, just as she was about to move, she vaguely heard someone talking. The voice was very familiar. After listening for a while, she recognized that it was Qu Lu¡¯s voice.


    Apparently, she was here. No wonder she had not seen her yet.


    Yin Xun turned a corner and walked toward the corridor. She happened to have something to discuss with Qu Lu, so this was her chance..

 Chapter 575 - Chapter 575: Two Jealous People

    Chapter 575: Two Jealous People


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Qu Lu was not on this floor. Yin Xun followed her voice and walked downstairs. After descending two floors, she saw Qu Lu standing there, sobbing.


    The sound in the corridor was amplified, so Yin Xun could hear Qu Lu¡¯s voice just now. She was making a call at the entrance of the corridor, and her voice was low. Qu Lu probably did not hear her either.


    At first, Yin Xun thought that Qu Lu was on the phone, but when she spotted her, she realized that Qu Lu was mumbling to herself. Her tone was aggrieved and she seemed deep in thought. She did not even notice Yin Xun walking over.


    ¡°So, this is where you were,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Startled, Qu Lu jerked her head up. When she saw that it was Yin Xun, her expression immediately turned cold. ¡°Why are you here?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled faintly and said, ¡°Obviously, I was dragged over by Qu Lin. However, part of the reason is also because of you. Before everyone else arrives, how about we have a chat?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s there to talk about with you?¡± Qu Lu calmly wiped the tears off her face and skulked away. It seemed like she did not want to talk to Yin Xun at all.


    ¡°Actually, you did all this not because you actually like Fang Yao, but because you want to find someone to rely on in the future, right?¡± Yin Xun¡¯s casual words caused Qu Lu¡¯s body to stiffen. She had just stepped onto the stairs when she stopped moving.


    She maintained her posture of going up the stairs and turned back to look at Yin Xun. ¡°What are you talking about? What is this? Are you trying to steal Yao from me?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s not it.¡± Yin Xun smiled and turned around. She walked up to Qu Lu and said, ¡°Actually, you don¡¯t really want to target me. If you really wanted to do that, you wouldn¡¯t have deleted the photos in Ding Shan¡¯s phone.¡±


    Qu Lu looked at Yin Xun in shock. ¡°How did you know about this?¡±


    Yin Xun tilted her head slightly and said, ¡°Of course, I only found out after meeting Ding Shan. It¡¯s not convenient to talk here. How about we talk at my house after the gathering? Of course, if you¡¯re afraid that I¡¯ll do something to you, you can refuse and forget about it.¡±


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯m afraid of you? What a joke. 1¡¯11 go if I want to go. Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re going to kill me over Yao!¡± Qu Lu straightened his neck and said indignantly.


    Yin Xun smiled when she saw her reaction. ¡°That¡¯s good.¡±


    Yin Xun was pleased with the successful invitation. She knew that Qu Lu would not leave with her right away. Hence, after informing Qu Lu, she left.


    Not long after Yin Xun returned to the private gathering room, Qu Lu also appeared.


    When Ding Shan saw Qu Lu, it was as if she had seen her savior. She leaned close to Qu Lu¡¯s ear and whispered something, occasionally glancing at Yin Xun.


    Qu Lu, on the other hand, looked indifferent. Throughout the entire conversation, she only gave a few perfunctory responses and did not say anything else. When Ding Shan saw this, although she was upset, she could not flare up. She could only lower her head resentfully and remain silent.


    The rest of the people quickly arrived. Other than Qu Lin and Fang Yao, Yin Xun was not familiar with anyone here. Yin Xun ate quietly. She had to admit that the food here was not bad.


    ¡°How¡¯s the taste compared to the food at my place?¡± Fang Yao suddenly asked in a low voice when he saw Yin Xun eating seriously.


    Yin Xun replied truthfully, ¡°It¡¯s a little weaker than yours, but it¡¯s not bad.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s answer, Fang Yao finally revealed a satisfied expression.


    After the gathering ended, everyone dispersed. Qu Lin walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and said, ¡°Sister Yin, I still have something on, so I can¡¯t send you back. You and Brother Fang Yao are neighbors, so you can go back together.¡±


    Fang Yao gave Qu Lin a pleased look. Just as he was about to say something, Yin Xun rejected the offer.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need. I¡¯ll take Qu Lu¡¯s car back. I invited her to stay at my house for a while. I have something to discuss with her. Lil Lin, go do what you need to do. Don¡¯t worry about me.¡± After saying that, she turned around and left with Qu Lu.


    Qu Lin,¡±?¡±


    Fang Yao,


    The two of them looked at each other. Fang Yao said coolly, ¡°Is this the opportunity you were talking about?¡±


    Qu Lin laughed awkwardly and said, ¡°Brother, you can¡¯t blame me for this. I¡¯ve already created an opportunity for you, but you didn¡¯t seize it. However, when did Yin Xun become so close to my sister? Why didn¡¯t I know about this?¡±


    ¡°She asked me about Qu Lu a few days ago,¡± Fang Yao explained. ¡°But I didn¡¯t expect her to invite Qu Lu back.¡±


    Qu Lin and Qu Lu had always been on bad terms. When she saw Yin Xun and Qu Lu leaving together, she felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Yin Xun¡¯s departing back resentfully.


    Fang Yao, on the other hand, felt an inexplicable sourness in his heart as he stared at Yin Xun¡¯s back.


    He had no choice but to drive back by himself..

 Chapter 576 - Chapter 576: Working Together With You

    Chapter 576: Working Together With You


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun invited Qu Lu inside, treating her like a guest.


    Upon entering the house, Yin Xun asked Qu Lu to take a seat while she went to get some food and drinks. On their way back from the hotel earlier, Qu Lu looked constantly depressed. She looked completely different from when she had threatened Yin Xun last time.


    Even when Yin Xun tried to speak to her, Qu Lu did not say anything. She only glanced at the driver. Yin Xun immediately understood that Qu Lu was wary of the driver.


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to pretend to entertain me. Yao and Qu Lin aren¡¯t here, so you don¡¯t have to act friendly. If you have anything to say, just say it,¡± Qu Lu sat on the sofa and said coldly.


    Yin Xun did not mind Qu Lu¡¯s hostile words at all. She took out a pile of tasty food and placed it in front of Qu Lu.


    ¡°Miss Qu, my only merit is that I¡¯m warm and hospitable. Since I¡¯ve invited you over as a guest, 1 naturally have to treat you well.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly, revealing a friendly smile. ¡°I saw that you didn¡¯t eat anything the entire time. Why don¡¯t you have some snacks first? These ones taste pretty good.¡±


    Qu Lu stared at Yin Xun warily. ¡°Thank you, but there¡¯s no need. We¡¯re not friends. I¡¯m not here to reminisce with you. Tell me, why did you call me over?¡±


    When Yin Xun saw Qu Lu¡¯s vigilant expression, she stopped urging her to eat. Instead, she sat at the side and started talking.


    ¡°Actually, I know that although you dislike me, you don¡¯t really want to hurt me. If you did, you wouldn¡¯t have deleted the photos in Ding Shan¡¯s phone. You could have verified the rumors.¡± Yin Xun looked at Qu Lu and said slowly, ¡°So, 1 hope¡­¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re thinking too much. 1 just don¡¯t treat you as an opponent, so I don¡¯t care about you at all. Don¡¯t flatter yourself.¡± Qu Lu became even more vigilant. She was not sure what Yin Xun was up to.


    Previously, the two of them had always disliked each other as if they were enemies. Now that Yin Xun suddenly treated her nicely, there must be something wrong.


    ¡°Alright, whatever you say.¡± Yin Xun did not intend to refute Qu Lu. She said, ¡°The reason you insist on marrying Fang Yao is because you have other plans, right?¡±


    A look of panic flashed across Qu Lu¡¯s eyes as she retorted, ¡°1 just like him. What does that have to do with you?¡±


    Yin Xun sighed and said,¡± There are a lot of things ordinary families can¡¯t do aside from earning money, let alone a rich family like yours. You probably care about your identity and want to find a way out for yourself in the future. Since I invited you to my house today, I¡¯ll be frank.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know what happened between you and Qu Lin in the past that caused the two of you to be enemies now. As for you, the main reason you want to marry into the Fang family is because you want to use his family¡¯s power to help yourself, right?¡±


    In fact, Fang Yao had already told her about Qu Lu and Qu Lin¡¯s early years. However, Qu Lu would definitely be unhappy if she knew this, so it was best if Yin Xun pretended not to know.


    Yin Xun¡¯s words were very direct, hitting the nail on the head. Qu Lu¡¯s expression changed. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out.


    She kept her gaze fixed on Yin Xun, and Yin Xun looked back at her indifferently. After a long while, Qu Lu slowly asked, ¡°How do you know all this?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry about how I know. You just have to tell me if I¡¯m right, okay? You¡¯re adopted by the Qu family. Your only purpose is to form a business marriage with the Fang family, so the Qu family¡¯s assets never belonged to you. Since that¡¯s the case, why hand your fate to an outsider? Wouldn¡¯t it feel more reassuring to control it yourself? Since ancient times, there have been many men who betrayed their wives.¡±


    Qu Lu¡¯s anger instantly dissipated. It was the complete opposite of her previous fierce expression. ¡°You make it sound so easy. Do you know how difficult it is to rely on yourself?¡±


    ¡°It won¡¯t be difficult if you have help.¡± Yin Xun saw that the time was right and hurriedly added, ¡°Actually, the Qu family hasn¡¯t treated you badly in terms of money, right? I have a friend who wants to open her own company. Now is the time to prepare the funds. She¡¯s also a girl. If you want to start your own business, you can work together with her.¡±


    ¡°Work together?¡± Qu Lu was at a loss for words. What did this mean? Did Yin Xun want her to start a company with someone else?


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Her current situation is actually not much different from yours. She also wants to carve a path for herself in the future. Since others can¡¯t be counted on, she can only rely on herself. It¡¯s just that a person¡¯s strength is ultimately limited. It¡¯s important to find a few like-minded partners to make things easier.¡±


    Qu Lu sneered.. ¡°So you weren¡¯t looking for me to help me, but to help your friend?¡±

 Chapter 577 - Chapter 577: Qu Lins Goal

    Chapter 577: Qu Lin¡¯s Goal


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°No, we¡¯re both just taking what we need.¡± Yin Xun looked at Qu Lu and smiled.


    ¡°Of course, this is just a suggestion. Whether you want to do it or not, that¡¯s up to you. You have two choices in front of you. Continue to work hard to marry into the Fang family, or 1¡¯11 help you open your own company and escape the control of others.¡±


    Yin Xun was not intentionally being overbearing, but given Qu Lu¡¯s current situation, there were indeed only two options. Qu Lu knew this himself, so she did not refute it.


    The conditions were very tempting to her. If she succeeded, she would no longer have to listen to others. However, Qu Lu did not trust Yin Xun. After all, Yin Xun and Qu Lin had always been very close. Who knew if this plan was related to Qu Lin?


    ¡°Since you know so much, you should also know that Qu Lin has always tried to ruin the relationship between Fang Yao and me because she wants to match you up with him. This is all to prevent me from harming her when 1 gain more power than her, right?¡± Qu Lu¡¯s gaze was fixed on Yin Xun, afraid that she would miss a microscopic change in her expression. This was a very important deal, after all.


    However, Yin Xun was stunned for a moment before shaking her head. ¡°1 didn¡¯t know that. So that¡¯s why she did all that. I learned something new.¡±


    Qu Lu,¡±¡­¡± She seemed to have accidentally said something unbelievable.


    ¡°Ahem, that¡¯s not important. What¡¯s important is the business opportunity you mentioned. I know Yao likes you. You¡¯re telling me this so you can have him, right?¡± Qu Lu quickly changed the topic awkwardly.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m not sure if he likes me or not, but I¡¯m sure it has nothing to do with what I¡¯m proposing. If you don¡¯t believe me¡­¡±


    Yin Xun¡¯s phone suddenly rang. She took it out and saw that it was a call from Liu Ying.


    She looked at Qu Lu with a smile. ¡°Alright, you¡¯ll know soon if I¡¯m telling the truth.¡±


    She pressed the answer button in front of Qu Lu and heard Liu Ying¡¯s weak voice coming from the other end of the line. ¡°Yin Xun, I¡¯m on my period. My stomach hurts¡­¡±


    Yin Xun said helplessly, ¡°Is there anything at home that can relieve the pain?¡±


    Liu Ying said aggrievedly, ¡°No, nothing.¡±


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll go buy something for you now. Oh right, the Qu Lu 1 told you about the other day is at my house now. Shall 1 bring her along?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Sure, I want to meet her too,¡± Liu Ying said.


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun looked at Qu Lu for her opinion. ¡°The person who called me just now is the girl 1 told you about. She also left home to start her own business, but there¡¯s only one person now. She needs to find a few partners. I think you¡¯re a suitable choice, so I suggested you to her. Do you want to go over and meet her?¡±


    Qu Lu looked at Yin Xun. Initially, she thought that Yin Xun was just looking for an excuse to make her leave Fang Yao.


    She already knew she had no chance to be with Fang Yao. Fang Yao had already made it clear that no matter how thick-skinned she was, she could not keep chasing after him.


    Therefore, even if Yin Xun did not invite her today, she planned to give up on Fang Yao. However, the suggestion did not sound like a bad thing. There was no harm in going to take a look.


    Qu Lu nodded in agreement.


    Yin Xun drove Qu Lu out to buy some heat packs and brown sugar before heading to Liu Ying¡¯s house.


    Although they lived in the same residential area, because the place was so huge and Liu Ying lived in the opposite half, the two of them would drive almost every time they visited each other. This was faster and more convenient.


    ¡°You sure know how to take care of people.¡± Qu Lu turned around and looked at the pile of things that Yin Xun had bought in the backseat.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°You have to rely on your friends when you¡¯re out. If you become friends with me in the future, I¡¯ll be sure to pay attention to you.¡±


    ¡°Hmph.¡± Qu Lu snorted coldly and did not say anything else. She just looked out of the window.


    Suddenly, she thought of something and said, ¡°By the way, don¡¯t tell anyone what I said about Qu Lin getting in my way. If she finds out, she¡¯ll do something to me again.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at her in confusion. ¡°What did you just say?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re quite good at pretending.¡± Qu Lu smiled for the first time. Although the smile disappeared in a flash, she had let down her guard against Yin Xun.


    Qu Lu looked more relieved, but Yin Xun began to ponder.


    The two of them quickly arrived at Liu Ying¡¯s house. The door was not locked. When the two of them entered, they saw Liu Ying lying on the sofa, looking like she was half-dead.


    ¡°You¡¯re finally here¡­¡± Liu Ying greeted Yin Xun and Qu Lu.


    Yin Xun helped Liu Ying make a cup of brown sugar water and gave her the heat pack before sitting down. ¡°If it¡¯s still so serious tomorrow, I can give you another day off..¡±

    Chapter 578: Setting The Direction Of The Company


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. It usually only hurts for a day for me,¡± Liu Ying said. ¡°Alright, enough worrying about me. You guys came here to talk about serious matters, right?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and said to Qu Lu, ¡°Liu Ying is currently working as an assistant in my company to learn about business management. At the same time, she¡¯s looking for a partner. If you decide to work with her, you can go to my company to train first. After that, the two of you can pull in a few investors and start. Of course, it¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t want to.¡±


    Although Qu Lu did not say whether she agreed or not, Yin Xun continued to explain the various advantages and disadvantages of starting a company in detail. Although Qu Lu looked impatient, she was actually listening attentively. After Yin Xun was done, she looked at Qu Lu and asked, ¡°How about it? Do you have any thoughts to share?¡±


    Liu Ying chimed in, ¡°Miss Qu Lu, this isn¡¯t the first time we¡¯ve met. Oh, that¡¯s not accurate. It should be the first time you¡¯ve seen me, but this is the second time I¡¯ve seen you. Didn¡¯t you exchange phone numbers with my brother last time? I¡¯m that guy¡¯s younger sister.¡±


    Hearing Liu Ying¡¯s words, Qu Lu¡¯s pupils constricted. She exclaimed in surprise, ¡°You¡¯re Liu Cheng¡¯s sister?! So you heard our conversation that day?!¡±


    Liu Ying nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right, but don¡¯t worry. I know you were just roped in by my brother that day. Anyway, you didn¡¯t do anything. Let¡¯s pretend none of this happened. As long as we work together, we¡¯ll be good friends.¡±


    Not only had she failed to achieve any scheming, but she had also been caught red-handed. Qu Lu¡¯s face instantly turned red. She did not know what to do now.


    Yin Xun could tell that she was flustered. She coughed lightly to spare her. ¡°So, Miss Qu Lu, what do you think about this?¡±


    ¡°I have another question. You clearly know that I¡¯m not on good terms with Qu Lin, yet you¡¯re still offering me help. Aren¡¯t you afraid that Qu Lin will be angry?¡± Qu Lu asked.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m asking you to work with Liu Ying, not me.¡±


    Qu Lu,¡±¡­¡± That was a fair point.


    She lowered her head and pondered. Yin Xun and Liu Ying did not rush her.


    After thinking for a while, Qu Lu took a deep breath and said, ¡°Alright, since there¡¯s a chance to change my fate, I¡¯ll give it a try. If 1 fail, I¡¯ll just get married.¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no need to force yourself. As long as you can pull in investments, there¡¯s no way you¡¯ll fail.¡± Yin Xun comforted her.


    ¡°If someone causes trouble halfway through, then it might not be so simple.¡± Qu Lu asked Liu Ying, ¡°Have you decided what you want to do?¡±


    Upon hearing Qu Lu¡¯s question, Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun blankly. ¡°That¡¯s right. What should we do?¡±


    The last time she discussed this with Yin Xun, Yin Xun had asked Liu Ying to just train herself first. They had not discussed anything in detail.


    After thinking for a while, Yin Xun asked both of them, ¡°What do you like? It¡¯s important to pursue the lucrative markets, but at the same time, it¡¯s also very important to try your best to do what you¡¯re good at. As the saying goes, interest is the best teacher. You can only last longer down this path if you like what you¡¯re doing.¡±


    After a moment of silence, Liu Ying and Qu Lu said in unison, ¡°I like watching entertainment news!¡±


    Right after that, the two of them looked at each other with smiles in their eyes. They did not expect that they would see eye to eye like this.


    Yin Xun snapped her fingers and said, ¡°Since you have the same hobbies, that¡¯s good. You can choose something related to socializing.¡±


    ¡°Socializing?¡± Liu Ying and Qu Lu looked at each other. Liu Ying said, ¡°Isn¡¯t that snatching business from you? Your Xintao and Rhythm videos are both related to that.¡±


    ¡°The direction will be different,¡± Yin Xun explained. ¡°Xintao is more inclined toward a different version of communication; as long as everyone adds each other¡¯s contact information, they can type out their words to text one another. It¡¯s also limited to adding friends and friend groups, and it¡¯s for people they already know. Rhythm Short Videos, on the other hand, is more inclined toward fast-paced video software.


    ¡°The pace of life is getting faster and faster. People need to release their stress. Some people don¡¯t want to run wild in front of their friends. In that case, they need an environment where they can meet and chat with like-minded strangers.


    ¡°So, we need a platform that can give them this avenue. We can add some related topics to profiles that let strangers look for you. If you don¡¯t add any topics, you won¡¯t get searched. Not only can you go wild, but you¡¯re also guaranteed to be anonymous. Your company can focus in this direction.¡±


    ¡°Can you be more specific?¡± Qu Lu was also interested and took the initiative to ask Yin Xun.


    Liu Ying nodded vigorously. She did not know much about this and wanted to learn more..

    Chapter 579: Borrowing Money Again


    Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun nodded with a smile and continued, ¡°This kind of platform can be set up in a few blocks. There¡¯s the Q&A section, the celebrity section, and so on. It can satisfy the users¡¯ curiosity and let them share their daily thoughts at the same time. In addition, we can also add a short video section to encourage everyone to make original videos. It can be things like teaching people how to cook or do handicrafts. Most importantly, we have to give this software a fixed position. I suggest that we directly make it into a type that is more focused on learning and sharing our daily lives¡­¡±


    Yin Xun told Liu Ying everything she knew. Liu Ying was not the only one who listened attentively. Even Qu Lu looked at Yin Xun with admiration.


    At first, she thought that Yin Xun had only asked her to work together in order to get her away from Fang Yao. She did not expect Yin Xun to be so serious about this. Even if Qu Lu did not agree, she could try to open her own company. Yin Xun was not worried that she would take the information for herself.


    At the same time, Qu Lu was a little glad. At that time, she thought that she had to find a backer by herself. After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, she realized that it was best to have Yin Xun as her support.


    However, although Yin Xun explained so many things, she only talked about the ideas. As for the execution, it would depend on the outcome of Liu Ying and Qu Lu¡¯s discussion.


    ¡°I have an idea. Since we¡¯ve decided to work together, why don¡¯t we each write a proposal and compare the merits before signing the contract?¡± Qu Lu suggested.


    This was indeed a good idea. Liu Ying and Yin Xun agreed at the same time.


    Qu Lu stood up and said to the two of them, ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll go back first. You can call me if there¡¯s anything.¡±


    Qu Lu gave them her contact information and left.


    Yin Xun and Liu Ying sent Qu Lu off. When they returned to the house, Liu Ying took the opportunity when Yin Xun was not paying attention to give her a big hug. ¡°Yin Xun, you¡¯re really something. You knew how much 1 was lacking, so you even found me a partner with such a strong background. This is great! With her around, we don¡¯t have to worry about the funds!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t get excited too early. The reason I looked for her is not only because she can provide you with financial support, but also that I can help her at the same time.¡± Yin Xun pushed Liu Ying away and took a step back.


    Liu Ying was not offended by the action and asked in confusion, ¡°What does she need help with? She has money, status, and she¡¯s so beautiful.¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head and did not intend to explain. ¡°She can tell you personally in the future. As an outsider, it¡¯s not appropriate for me to tell you her secrets.¡±


    ¡°Oh, looks like I¡¯m not your best friend anymore. You actually hiding these little secrets from me.¡± Liu Ying clutched her chest and pretended to be aggrieved.


    Yin Xun was amused by Liu Ying¡¯s behavior.


    After Qu Lu left, she kept thinking about what Yin Xun had told her. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Yin Xun¡¯s words made sense. Her fate should be in her own hands and not in the hands of others.


    As soon as she reached home, he received a call from Ding Shan. Qu Lu looked at the name on the screen and felt annoyed for the first time.


    After a long time, she pressed the answer button. Ding Shan¡¯s anxious and resentful voice came from the phone. ¡°Lulu, Yin Xun is a horrible person. She confronted you today and even pulled you away. Did she do anything to you?¡± Qu Lu said indifferently, ¡°No, she only invited me to her house as a guest. She treated me very politely.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be fooled by her. Think about it. Since you were young, other than Wu Fei and me, no one else has been sincere to you.¡± After a pause, Ding Shan added, ¡°Lulu, my company has been having some difficulties with its cash flow recently. Can you lend me some more money? I¡¯ll return it to you immediately when we make a profit.¡±


    Qu Lu thought of Yin Xun¡¯s words and said, ¡°Sure, but you haven¡¯t returned the money you borrowed from me last time. Shouldn¡¯t you write an IOU this time?¡± ¡°IOU? Lulu, you¡¯ve never asked me for an IOU in the past. With our relationship, what does it matter if you give me some money? Your family is so rich.¡± Ding Shan was a little upset when she heard that Qu Lu wanted an IOU.


    This time, Qu Lu did not hold back any longer. Instead, she said firmly, ¡°It¡¯s precisely because I didn¡¯t ask for an IOU in the past that you¡¯ve never returned my money. If you still acknowledge me as your friend, you should return the money you borrowed from me last time..¡±

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Why are you so petty? Aren¡¯t we friends? You¡¯ll be able to save up that bit of money again in no time¡­ Oh, I get it. Did Yin Xun tell you something? Let me tell you, she¡¯s not a good person. You should stay away from her. To help you marry Fang Yao, I¡¯ve been giving you so many ideas. But she only got close to you to snatch Fang Yao away!¡± Ding Shan tried to persuade Qu Lu.


    ¡°I plan to start my own business, so 1 don¡¯t have any extra money to lend you,¡± Qu Lu said honestly.


    Ding Shan was silent for a moment before saying, ¡°Qu Lu, as long as you marry Fang Yao and become the young madam of the Fang family, you¡¯ll be rich. When the time comes, you¡¯ll have everything you want. You can even help my company. If you start a company now, what will happen to mine? This is the most difficult time for me. Since you¡¯re still my good friend, don¡¯t start a company now. Please use that money to help my family get through this rough period first¡­¡±


    Qu Lu hung up immediately. She suddenly did not want to listen to Ding Shan anymore.


    Previously, she thought that Ding Shan and Wu Fei were the only ones who treated her well, so she did whatever they said. When she was young, she even listened to their words and hurt Qu Lin, almost killing her once. Now that she thought about it, she felt terrified.


    Because she caused Qu Lin to hate her back then, she would always be targeted by Qu Lin in the future.


    Qu Lu understood that she was in the wrong, so she had never been particularly angry when Qu Lin made things difficult for her. Thinking of this, Qu Lu felt that she should personally tell Qu Lin about the collaboration with Yin Xun¡¯s friend.


    ¡°Second Miss, you¡¯re back!¡± A servant¡¯s voice came from outside.


    When Qu Lu heard that Qu Lin had returned, she thought for a moment and decided to talk to her sister. She tidied herself up before opening the door and leaving the room.


    The day passed quickly.


    The next day, Yin Xun arrived at the company early. Now that everything in Xintao had been settled, she had to give Blue Fox another nice present.


    It was still way before work hours, and Mi Jin had not arrived yet. However, Cheng She arrived early, even earlier than Yin Xun.


    ¡°You¡¯re too dutiful for a spy. I can¡¯t believe you came so early,¡± Yin Xun joked.


    ¡°¡­¡± Cheng She handed the document over to Yin Xun and said exasperatedly, ¡°President Yin, there is a new problem at the mapping company. It has been very chaotic over there for the past few days, and yesterday, they confirmed that they have changed legal representatives. Now, the chairman said that they will give the core technology of their company to us, and at the same time, cancel the collaboration. President Yin, how should we approach this?¡±


    When Cheng She received the news yesterday, he was dumbfounded. It was normal for a legal owner to change midway, but they even terminated the cooperation and gave their core technology to the other party. This was unheard of; Cheng She did not know how to deal with it. That was why he looked for Yin Xun. The only problem was that Yin Xun did not come yesterday.


    On the other end, the chairman said that Yin Xun already knew about this, so Cheng She chose to wait for Yin Xun to arrive. That was why he did not call Yin Xun earlier. Nevertheless, this matter was too big and he did not sleep well last night and came over early this morning. Fortunately, Yin Xun was early as well.


    Yin Xun took the document and listened to Cheng She as she read it. After reading it, she nodded and said, ¡°I understand. You don¡¯t have to worry about this. 1¡¯11 leave it to Mary to take charge. You can just continue to handle to video game.¡±


    After saying that, she looked up at Cheng She and smiled. ¡°After all, you¡¯re an undercover agent. 1 won¡¯t let you participate in this core technology.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±!¡±


    He had been here for so long, and Yin Xun had always been indifferent to everything. She let him participate in all kinds of company matters and was not afraid that he would report to Si Fan. He did not expect that there would be something he could not know.


    He was actually¡­ a little happy. His identity as a spy was respected again.


    Since there was nothing else to do, Cheng She briefly reported the game development to Yin Xun. Yin Xun suggested a few modifications, and Cheng She soon left.


    Shortly later, Mi Jin yawned and arrived at the office. Because Rhythm was going to be released today, he had been busy until three in the morning last night. He did not get more than a few hours of sleep before he came to work again.


    Yin Xun saw how tired he looked and smiled. ¡°It¡¯s been hard on you. Once we¡¯re done with Rhythm, I¡¯ll give you two days off so you can have a good rest¡±


    ¡°As long as 1 see Si Fan suffer, that is the only reward I need,¡± Mi Jin said hatefully.


    ¡°Alright, let¡¯s begin.¡± Yin Xun followed Mi Jin to his office..

 Chapter 581 - Chapter 581: Short Video Going Online

    Chapter 581: Short Video Going Online


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Previously, during the closed beta stage of the Rhythm Short Video, although anyone was able to download it, Yin Xun did not do much advertising and promotions. She relied solely on the popularity of those celebrities who had participated.


    Perhaps this was too low-key and did not attract any attention.


    Moreover, Blue Fox had been focusing all its energy on dealing with Xintao recently. Even if Blue Fox knew about Rhythm, they might not take care. After all, it was only a video-sharing platform. It would not conflict with Blue Fox¡¯s interests.


    ¡°President Yin, when the software is released, how do you think the senior management of Blue Fox will react?¡± Mi Jin asked her expectantly.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°They should not have any reaction because Rhythm and Blue Fox are not on the same page. Even if they know that it¡¯s a project under my name, they will think that I¡¯m only involved on the surface. In a short period of time, they will lower their guard against me.¡±


    Just like what Yin Xun said, when Rhythm came online, it did not cause much of a stir.


    There were only a few celebrities and contract bloggers advertising on their accounts. Although it was not as popular as when Xintao went online, there was still some activity. Some time passed since it went online, and the number of users of Rhythm Short Video had gradually increased. Despite that, there was no news from Blue Fox.


    The two of them continued to watch the data since the software was launched online. The numbers were rising steadily.


    It was too peaceful. It was the opposite of when Xintao first came online. Mi Jin was puzzled. ¡°Since it won¡¯t affect Blue Fox, why did you launch it at this time and make it seem so grand? I thought we would anger Si Fan again. I was getting my hopes up for nothing. Or are you just trying to divert their attention and then do something big behind their backs?¡±


    As far as he knew, Yin Xun was not the kind of person who would do things for no reason.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°I don¡¯t know if Si Fan will be angry over this, but Blue Fox probably won¡¯t pay attention to us for the time being, so you don¡¯t have to worry about that. As for what effect Rhythm has on Xintao, in a few more days, you¡¯ll understand why I released the short video platform.¡±


    Yin Xun was not in a hurry to explain to Mi Jin.


    Seeing that Yin Xun refused to say anything, Mi Jin did not ask further. In any case, he was only responsible for providing technology. As for business ideas, it was Yin Xun¡¯s responsibility and not something he had to worry about.


    Although Blue Fox did not pay attention to the situation here, Cheng She noticed it.


    He looked at the news of Rhythm coming online and was worried. Should he report it to Si Fan? Logically speaking, Si Fan only asked him to keep an eye on Xintao¡¯s business, and the Short Video had nothing to do with Xintao.


    Moreover, he had been working at Xintao recently. He felt even more comfortable here than the moment he received his salary at Blue Fox. He was really about to treat Xintao as his workplace.


    If he did not report it, he was also a little worried that Si Fan would find out in the future and ask him for a plan. His gaze landed on the computer screen. Looking at the comments from the users praising the game character, he immediately felt a sense of satisfaction.


    He was responsible for making these things. Everyone was praising his work. Blue Fox had never experienced such a reception. Back then, it was already the best outcome if there were no harsh criticisms.


    Because Si Fan had always given him random orders back then, all their plans could not go according to their original schedule. In the end, Cheng She was to blame for the failure.


    To be honest, if he could, he did not want to return to Blue Fox in the future.


    After thinking about it, he felt that he should not report to Si Fan. Anyway, Si Fan did not force him to report these things. If he was questioned, he could just find an excuse to fool Si Fan. Cheng She heaved a sigh of relief and began to focus on the next game¡¯s development.


    Suddenly, his phone rang.


    Cheng She took out his phone and panicked for a moment. It was Si Fan. Si Fan was getting more and more ostentatious. Last time, he only contacted him after he got off work and acted cautiously. Now, even during working hours, Si Fan called without restraint, regardless of whether it was for something big or small.


    Cheng She looked around the office. Yin Xun was probably concerned that it would be easy for him to do something bad if he had his own office, so she put the entire team in one room. As he kept recruiting, the staff in the office kept increasing. The place would be full soon.


    After some thought, Cheng She went downstairs with the excuse of buying something. In reality, he found an empty corner and called Si Fan back.


    ¡°President Si, why are you calling me?¡± Cheng She felt a little guilty. After all, he had new information but did not report it in time..

 Chapter 582 - Chapter 582: Identity Exposed

    Chapter 582: Identity Exposed


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Cheng She, what are you doing? Why didn¡¯t you report to me when Yin Xun made a move?¡± Si Fan questioned angrily.


    Cheng She pretended not to know what had happened and said righteously, ¡°President Si, I¡¯m trying my best to use up Yin Xun¡¯s money! I¡¯ve been very busy recently, so 1 didn¡¯t notice Yin Xun¡¯s movements. President Si, what exactly happened? 1 didn¡¯t hear any news.¡±


    There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line. Cheng She¡¯s excuse was flawless. Si Fan actually did not know what to say for a moment.


    It was not until he heard Cheng Shi¡¯s question that he said, ¡°Yin Xun¡¯s side has a short video app called Rhythm. Although it didn¡¯t advertise much, it¡¯s getting quite popular. You¡¯ve been in Xintao for so long, did you not notice?¡±


    Cheng She had barely spoken one word when Si Fan, who was on the other end of the line, abruptly said, ¡°Could it be that Yin Xun discovered your identity and deliberately hid it from you? If your identity is exposed, our only option is to bring you back¡­¡±


    Cheng She was shocked by these words. He had been faring very well at Xintao. Although it was very annoying to be frequently questioned by Si Fan, this was the only trouble he faced lately.


    He did not have to work overtime here and did not have to worry about being scolded. If he returned to Blue Fox, he might suffer again.


    ¡°President Si, don¡¯t worry. My identity hasn¡¯t been exposed!¡± Cheng She did not wait for Si Fan to finish speaking and quickly interrupted him. ¡°It wasn¡¯t easy for me to gain Yin Xun¡¯s trust. Now, I¡¯m in charge of a project and even became her assistant. If you move me back, wouldn¡¯t all my previous efforts be in vain? If you do that, it won¡¯t be easy to plant a spy beside Yin Xun again.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve always followed your instructions and spent Yin Xun¡¯s money with all my might. You must have seen the information about Xintao¡¯s game, right? Look at the fancy graphics and 3D models. 1 spent a lot of money¡­¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯m not interested in that. It¡¯s fine as long as I¡¯m not discovered.¡± Si Fan interrupted him impatiently. ¡°I¡¯m calling you to ask you about the short video app. Try to find out what Yin Xun is planning with this software. Also, think of a way to let Xintao and Blue Fox fight. The fiercer they go at each other¡¯s throats, the sooner 1 can make a comeback.¡±


    ¡°Alright, President Si!¡± Cheng She thought about how Blue Fox was burning money for activities. He deliberated for a moment and asked, ¡°President Si, what¡¯s the situation with Blue Fox now?¡±


    Si Fan immediately became vigilant. ¡°Why are you asking this?¡±


    ¡°Ahem.¡± Cheng Shi coughed lightly and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t you ask me to make Xintao and Blue Fox fight each other? I can only decide on the best course of action if I know the situation on Blue Fox¡¯s side.¡±


    There was no problem with what he said. Si Fan finally let down his guard and started gloating. ¡°Those people are utter fools. They spent so much money on the event. They¡¯re trying to imitate Xintao¡¯s previous methods. It¡¯s a pity that they didn¡¯t do their homework. The outcome wasn¡¯t ideal. It was a fruitless task. After doing so much, Blue Fox still didn¡¯t recover. They only improved the reputation a little.¡±


    Cheng She was speechless. He cursed in his heart. ¡®Weren¡¯t you the one who ruined Blue Fox¡¯s reputation? And now you¡¯re mocking people for only salvaging some of that reputation. How shameless.¡¯ However, Cheng She obviously did not dare to say this out loud.


    Suddenly, he heard a call from a woman from Si Fan¡¯s side, followed by the sound of a whimper.


    Cheng She heard Si Fan shouting some distance from the microphone, ¡°Can¡¯t you see that I¡¯m busy?!¡± After yelling, he said to Cheng She, ¡°Don¡¯t forget what I told you just now. Watch Yin Xun for me. If anything happens in the future, you learn the consequences!¡±


    With that, Si Fan hung up.


    Cheng She could not tell if the voice just now was Si Xia¡¯s or Yin Mo¡¯s, but it sounded quite pitiful. Cheng She sighed. No matter who it was, they were unlucky to be with Si Fan.


    After a while, Cheng She bought some things and hurried back. He had been out for too long, and he might easily arouse suspicion. His identity was a touchy matter, to begin with.


    After returning to the office, he logged into the Rhythm page while working on the game, occasionally monitoring the situation.


    Rhythm had been released for a day, and the number of users steadily increased. This time, no one was causing trouble, so nothing unusual happened.


    Yin Xun only watched the situation for a while before leaving. Mi Jin took over the monitoring after that. Nothing significant happened until he got off work. The short video app was operating normally and there were no bugs. He finally felt relieved..

    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After work, Yin Xun saw an old lady selling pears on the way back. She looked rather pitiful.


    She did not have many pears left, so Yin Xun bought them all so that the old lady could go home sooner.


    Just as she approached Fang Yao¡¯s house, the butler came out to welcome her.


    ¡°Miss Yin, you¡¯ve come. Come in quickly.¡± The butler chuckled as he came out to welcome her. ¡°But why are you back so late today? Have you been busy recently?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded with a smile and handed the pears to the butler. ¡°That¡¯s right. There¡¯s a new project going online today. Uncle Butler, 1 have something to discuss with Fang Yao.¡±


    The butler took the pears and said, ¡°He¡¯s inside. Go on in and look for him.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡± Yin Xun muttered softly as she walked, ¡°Strange, why does he come out to welcome me every time?¡±


    The butler was exasperated.


    After hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, he looked a little embarrassed. He knew what Yin Xun meant. Every time Yin Xun visited, he would be outside ready to welcome her. In fact, every time Yin Xun got off work, he would come out of the house early to wait for her.


    Since the young master did not take the initiative, he needed this old man¡¯s help.


    When Yin Xun walked into the house, the butler saw what fruit she had given him. When he saw that she brought pears, his expression instantly changed. ¡°Why pears? This doesn¡¯t have a good meaning. Looks like 1 shouldn¡¯t slice these fruits for them today.¡±


    Yin Xun naturally did not hear his mumbling. She just walked into the living room and saw Fang Yao sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.


    There was a notebook and pen in front of him. He seemed to be reading and writing down something. His expression looked serious and he did not seem to notice Yin Xun coming over. Yin Xun looked at his impressive side profile and did not speak.


    Then, the Butler also came in. He stood at the door and saw Yin Xun staring at Fang Yao in a daze. He smiled and turned to leave. He planned to sneak in through the other door so as not to disturb the two of them.


    ¡°You¡¯re here to ask for money again, aren¡¯t you?¡± Fang Yao¡¯s gaze did not leave the newspaper. After being stared at by Yin Xun for a few seconds, he spoke up lightly. If he did not speak, who knew how long Yin Xun would continue staring? Usually, if Yin Xun did not take the initiative to speak first when she came over, she would be asking for money.


    Yin Xun smiled awkwardly and replied, ¡°Well, it doesn¡¯t really count as that. Of course, it might count¡­ but it¡¯s not for myself¡­¡±


    Fang Yao raised his head and looked at Yin Xun. There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes. ¡°Then who is it for?¡±


    Sure enough, she wanted money. Fang Yao had really become an ATM. It was not enough for Yin Xun to ask him for money, but she even started to ask for money for others?


    However, all he wished now was that it was not related to a man.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, ¡°It¡¯s like this. Yesterday, I had a discussion with Qu Lu and Liu Ying. The two of them plan to start a company together. Originally, with their family¡¯s financial situation, they didn¡¯t need to pull in investors. However, Liu Ying had a conflict with her family. And you know Qu Lu¡¯s situation. Liu Ying invested all her remaining money into me. She helped me, so 1 wanted to help her back¡­ As for Qu Lu, helping her will also help you.¡±


    ¡°They want to work together to open a company? So, you successfully negotiated with Qu Lu yesterday.¡± Fang Yao was a little surprised.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Qu Lu is actually a very nice child. It¡¯s just that she¡¯s a little scheming and lacks a sense of security. As long as we guide her to find a means to protect herself, she won¡¯t try to rely on others anymore,¡± Yin Xun said.


    She had helped Qu Lu by pulling her into her camp. Firstly, she wanted to help Liu Ying find a backer. After all, a new company was easy to target in the beginning. Secondly, she had one less enemy now. If she did not do this, Qu Lu would be monitoring her like a human radar and spreading her information. What if she got in trouble one day?


    As they say, having more friends opens more paths. As long as there was a chance to make friends, she would not let anyone become her enemy.


    Fang Yao was speechless when he heard her words. ¡°¡­You child, you¡¯re the same age as her.¡±


    Yin Xun waved her hand. ¡°Don¡¯t pay attention to the details. The only problem now is that those two sisters don¡¯t have a good relationship. If I help Qu Lu, Qu Lin might be angry. So I want to ask you. You grew up with them. Is there anything Qu Lin likes?¡±


    Previously, when she found out that Qu Lu had a bone to pick with her, Yin Xun had already decided to have a good talk with her. It was just that she never had the chance. Yesterday, she happened to spot Qu Lu alone. She could not miss such a good opportunity. Moreover, if she contacted Qu Lu right in front of Qu Lin, Qu Lin should not misunderstand things..

 Chapter 584 - Chapter 584: Qu Lus Past

    Chapter 584: Qu Lu¡¯s Past


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao told her about those two sisters.


    Qu Lu was adopted by the Qu family. She was already six years old when she first came from the orphanage. She had suffered a lot there, so when she first came into the household, she did not talk much and was wary of everyone.


    At that time, Qu Lin¡¯s mother was already quite old. She thought that she would not be able to bear a child, so she treated Qu Lu as her biological child and took good care of her.


    At that time, Qu Lu did not have any friends and was a little mentally unsound. Coincidentally, the Ding family had asked the Qu family for help and allowed Ding Shan and Qu Lu to play together sometimes. From then on, the two of them became friends.


    Ding Shan was a few years older than Qu Lu and knew a lot of things. She taught Qu Lu all sorts of things like an elder sister. However, Ding Shan¡¯s personality was a little strange. When she was young, she liked to torment kittens and puppies.


    In the beginning, everything was fine. Later on, when Qu Lin was born and their mother had a biological child, how could she continue to treat her adopted child as well as before?


    Ever since then, Qu Lu had been neglected. The Qu family had to prioritize Qu Lin in everything. The most the elders said to Qu Lu was, ¡°Your mother has a new child now, and you¡¯re adopted. Just be obedient in the future. Otherwise, your mother won¡¯t care for you anymore.¡±


    Perhaps because she had heard too much of this and the Qu family treated Qu Lin better, Qu Lu¡¯s mental state deteriorated again.


    Later on, there were rumors that Qu Lu was jealous of her younger sister, Qu Lin, and instigated Ding Shan to help her fight against Qu Lin.


    At that time, when Qu Lin was five years old, they almost tricked Qu Lin into entering the cold storage, which would have frozen her to death. It was also from then on that Qu Lin learned that Qu Lu was not her biological sister. After that, Qu Lin always went against Qu Lu and their relationship was hostile.


    Originally, the Qu family¡¯s assets would be passed to Qu Lu. Due to this incident, however, Qu Lin would take them away when she grew up and refused to give anything to Qu Lu. She even refused to let Qu Lu work in her own company.


    Of course, the Qu family felt even more sorry for their child. Hence, they tacitly agreed to Qu Lin¡¯s bullying of Qu Lu. This caused Qu Lu to feel more and more insecure, thinking that her only choice was to rely on Fang Yao in the future.


    The Fang and the Qu family were both influential. If they could get connected through marriage, they would become even more powerful. Coincidentally, the Qu family did not want Qu Lu to inherit their assets, so they asked Qu Lu to find a way to marry Fang Yao.


    The elders liked to make their own decisions. They did not care if the child was willing or not. Other than marrying Fang Yao, Qu Lu had no other choices. This was because she was already an adult. If she did not agree, the Qu family could terminate the adoption.


    Regarding what happened in the past, Fang Yao said that he had only heard the story objectively. Outsiders did not know the details. The matter of tricking Qu Lin into the freezer had caused a huge commotion. Qu Lu knew that she had caused big trouble. Later, she explained to everyone in private that it was Ding Shan who tricked Qu Lin into entering the freezer. Qu Lu only did not stop her.


    No one believed Qu Lu¡¯s words. They thought that Qu Lu was just trying to shirk responsibility and wrongly accuse others. Ding Shan happened to have a fever and fell sick then. No one could testify for her, so Qu Lu had no choice but to bear the responsibility herself and let this matter pass.


    Later on, even if Qu Lu tried to explain this to Qu Lin, Qu Lin still felt that she was guilty as an accomplice and had never forgiven her.


    If this story was true, then Qu Lin was the victim. As for Qu Lu, her thoughts were also sympathizable.


    She went through a lot to have a warm family, but because of Qu Lu¡¯s birth, everything was lost and she returned to her previous life. At that time, she was still young and had not fully formed her views of good and evil, so she did something bad.


    However, Qu Lin had also bullied Qu Lu for more than ten years. Qu Lu never resisted. This was not something that outsiders could give their opinions on.


    In the end, whether or not Qu Lu should be forgiven was up to Qu Lin. Yin Xun was lost in thought, and Fang Yao waved his hand in front of her.


    ¡°What are you thinking about? You¡¯re in such a daze that you didn¡¯t even hear what I said.¡± Seeing that Yin Xun had come back to her senses, he continued, ¡°If you help them make this social platform, won¡¯t that compete with your business?¡±


    ¡°I was just thinking about Qu Lu and Qu Lin.¡± Yin Xun came back to her senses and explained, ¡°Liu Ying¡¯s platform doesn¡¯t overlap with my business. My platform involves real-time chatting with acquaintances, while theirs is for talking with strangers online. The key is to input common topics to let people find you. Anyway, there aren¡¯t many similar companies in the market now. Even if our businesses overlap, the market is a large enough cake for everyone. I can¡¯t finish it myself.¡±


    Allowing a rival company to appear and compete was not something an ordinary person could do. Fang Yao nodded and looked at Yin Xun with admiration..

 Chapter 585 - Chapter 585: Lottery

    Chapter 585: Lottery


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, Qu Lu will get a portion of the funds from the Qu family. When you return, calculate the amount and report it to me. I¡¯ll transfer the money to you then,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Yin Xun was a little worried. ¡°Can she do it? With her relationship with Qu Lin, what would Qu Lin think if she knew that she was going to open a company? After Qu Lu left yesterday, I called Qu Lin, but no one picked up. I don¡¯t know if she¡¯s angry with me.¡±


    Although Qu Lin had not answered her phone in the past, the situation yesterday was special.


    Qu Lin never let Qu Lu have an easy time. That was why she had repeatedly ruined Qu Lu and Fang Yao¡¯s plans to prevent her from marrying a rich man. At the same time, she had no intention of giving Qu Lu any assets. She wanted her to fend for herself in the future.


    Fang Yao could tell that Yin Xun was worried and consoled her, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. With Qu Lin¡¯s personality, even if she has any grudges, she will tell you clearly before targeting you. If she doesn¡¯t say anything, it means that she¡¯s fine. Even if Qu Lu doesn¡¯t get the money, there¡¯s still me. I¡¯ll just treat it as investing in a few more projects.¡±


    ¡°Alright, thanks in advance,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s smile, Fang Yao¡¯s heart skipped a beat. When she smiled, her eyes were curved like crescent moons. It was as if they held a magical power that pulled him in.


    ¡°Ahem¡­¡± Fang Yao coughed lightly. He was afraid that Yin Xun would notice his loss of composure, so he quickly changed the topic. ¡°Have you been paying attention to Blue Fox recently?¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°I know that Blue Fox was having an event and invested a lot of money. However, this is just following what I¡¯ve done. The users have already gone on a mad shopping spree before. There¡¯s no need for me to continue burning money with them. What¡¯s the matter? Have they been acting strangely recently?¡±


    ¡°No. They¡¯ve already lost a lot of money this time. There¡¯s also the lottery event. I heard that the prizes are very lucrative. They invested so much money, but the sales didn¡¯t meet their expectations. Originally, they planned to do more activities, but according to the current situation, they¡¯ll lose even more if they continue. In order to avoid losing more, they plan to end the event early. They just posted an announcement this morning, but the users didn¡¯t seem to buy it. They felt that Blue Fox had lied to them again and started criticizing them again,¡± Fang Yao said calmly.


    Blue Fox was currently being roasted over a fire. No matter what they did, it was not satisfactory to the customers.


    If they continued with the event and their income did not meet the requirements, the investors would definitely not agree to continue burning money. No one wanted to be a spendthrift. However, if they ended the event early, the users would definitely be unhappy. Blue Fox¡¯s reputation had already collapsed once. It would be very difficult to recover if it collapsed again.


    In the end, between money and reputation, Blue Fox chose the former. Perhaps they felt that reputation could be earned back through post-production marketing.


    ¡°So, there¡¯s still a lottery event? I thought there would only be discounts. I¡¯ll take part in the draw before the event ends,¡± Yin Xun said as she took out her phone and prepared to draw a lot.


    Fang Yao saw the Blue Fox app on Yin Xun¡¯s phone and said helplessly, ¡°You¡¯re the boss of Xintao, right?¡±


    Yin Xun pressed the lottery wheel and drew a prize. It was 200 yuan in cash.


    She immediately smiled from ear to ear and waved her hand. ¡°Don¡¯t mind my identity. It¡¯s good as long as you can get money. It doesn¡¯t matter if the other party is your competitor. That¡¯s great. 200 yuan. I¡¯ll treat you to delicious food tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Fang Yao nodded. That seemed to make sense. Hence, he took out his phone and downloaded Blue Fox. Then, he drew the lottery as well. In the end, he only got ten cents.


    Looking at the amount, Fang Yao silently put his phone back.


    ¡°I heard that they¡¯re holding another investors¡¯ meeting. Since they did not manage to faze you with this event, they¡¯ll definitely try something else next. Watch out for the news.¡± Fang Yao pretended that nothing had happened and reminded Yin Xun.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    While the two of them were talking, the butler brought over a plate of pears and placed it in front of them. However, he did not slice them open this time. Instead, he brought the fruit in whole and invited the two of them to eat.


    Yin Xun smiled and thanked him. ¡°Thank you, Uncle Butler.¡±


    ¡°Young Master, these are the pears that Miss Yin just bought. Do you want to try it?¡± The butler looked at Fang Yao and winked at him.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and asked in surprise, ¡°You bought this?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Do you not like pears? I can get something else next time.¡±


    Fang Yao, ¡°¡­It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t like pears, but the problem is that you bought it.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean? Do you think I don¡¯t know how to choose fruit? I bought this from an old granny. They¡¯re juicy. Try it. It¡¯s really delicious,¡± Yin Xun said and took a big bite.


    ¡°Separation, separation. You can¡¯t give pears as gifts.¡± Fang Yao sighed. He knew that Yin Xun was a straightforward person and would not understand what he meant..

 Chapter 586 - Chapter 586: How Bosses Pursue Women

    Chapter 586: How Bosses Pursue Women


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As expected, Yin Xun said indifferently, ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect you to believe this type of thing. Don¡¯t worry, we¡¯ll still be good friends even if we separate.¡±


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    He looked at Yin Xun faintly and felt a little heart attack. For a moment, he did not know what to say.


    If Yin Xun said something like that, what else could he do but listen? Yin Xun¡¯s brain had always worked like this.


    The butler scoffed when he saw their interaction; Fang Yao deserved it for not confessing earlier. With Yin Xun¡¯s personality, she would never realize that Fang Yao liked her.


    By then, Yin Xun would only treat Fang Yao like a brother, or someone else would beat him to Yin Xun. If that happened, Fang Yao would have nowhere to cry even if he wanted to.


    The butler¡¯s expression was too impudent. Fang Yao glared at him, and only then did the butler restrain his emotions.


    Yin Xun did not notice their expressions. She focused on eating the pear and thinking about opening a company. After eating her pear, she discussed with Fang Yao the direction of the new company. Halfway through, Yin Xun suddenly remembered something.


    ¡°By the way, how¡¯s the collection code for the scenic area?¡± She had forgotten about this after handing the collection code to Fang Yao last time.


    Fang Yao immediately said, ¡°At the moment, the usage rate isn¡¯t very high. It¡¯s still mainly cash. However, don¡¯t mind it. It¡¯s just the beginning. Everyone is used to using cash and isn¡¯t used to paying with their phones. There are many advantages to paying with your phone. At least you don¡¯t have to worry about dropping your money. It¡¯s convenient. We just need to promote it a little more.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. The main problem now is that there are too few places that use this method. Looks like I need to find someone to help me promote it offline.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not just offline promotion. We also have to pay attention to the user¡¯s savings. Now, the main direction of Xintao is online shopping. This will give the user the impression that the software is not good for saving money because any savings will just get spent. Therefore, I suggest that Xintao make an additional software for saving money and making payments. It can also be used to buy things in Xintao. Although the essence hasn¡¯t changed, the user will feel more at ease psychologically.¡±


    Fang Yao shared his opinion with Yin Xun. ¡°If possible, we can add some financial management functions. We can¡¯t let the users store their money here for nothing.¡±


    With Fang Yao¡¯s advice, Yin Xun felt enlightened. How could she have forgotten about this? She could add money management to the Xintao wallet.


    However, there was one problem. There were so many money management products. Which one was safer? She had to ensure that the users¡¯ assets were safe enough. She was not savvy in wealth management, but someone should be able to handle it.


    Yin Xun stood up and said to Fang Yao, ¡°I suddenly have a plan. Thank you, Fang Yao.¡±


    With that, Yin Xun went straight home to sort through financial management software to find the ones that were relatively reliable.


    Seeing Yin Xun leave in such a hurry, the butler sighed and said, ¡°Young Master, you have amazing composure. Even at such a time, you can still hold your feelings in and not say anything. Be careful that you won¡¯t have more chances in the future.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°You¡¯re right, but it¡¯s not the right time yet. Let¡¯s wait a little longer.¡±


    ¡°Are you planning to wait until you are in your seventies or eighties? Even if you¡¯re not in a hurry to be together, you should at least express your feelings now. Find a day to go shopping and watch a movie together. Then, hold her hand, take a photo, and find an opportunity to hug her. 1 think that Miss Yin will not be opposed to some physical contact. You have to take the initiative to make something happen,¡± the butler said in disappointment.


    Fang Yao¡¯s expression changed. He turned to look at the butler and frowned. ¡°Butler, no matter what my relationship with Yin Xun is, I can¡¯t touch her without her permission. This is basic respect. Moreover, she has her own thoughts. She knows who she likes and dislikes. What 1 have to do is to accompany her through the difficulties. That way, I can naturally slowly find my way into her heart.¡±


    The butler muttered, ¡°But all those big bosses in romance novels pursue their women like this. Moreover, young ladies are very happy to read those books.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s why it¡¯s a novel. In reality, you¡¯ll be treated as a pervert. Also, I¡¯m not a tyrant. I¡¯m just a rich man with some money who can start his own business. Don¡¯t you think Yin Xun is the one who¡¯s more like a tyrant?¡± Fang Yao said helplessly.


    ¡°She¡¯s a president, and you¡¯re the president¡¯s ATM. When she has enough money one day, she¡¯ll leave you without a second glance and without remorse,¡± the butler complained.


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    The butler sure knew how to anger him.


    The next day, Yin Xun went to the company¡¯s game development department and headed straight to look for Cheng She..

 Chapter 587 - Chapter 587: Stoke The Fire

    Chapter 587: Stoke The Fire


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun asked, ¡°Cheng She, do you know how about wealth management?¡± Cheng She replied truthfully, ¡°A little. What¡¯s the problem, President Yin?¡± Her guess was right. Cheng She had been in charge of everything by Si Fan¡¯s side. He was basically an all-rounded assistant. Even if he did not know how to do something, he could immediately learn it.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, 1¡¯11 give you another task.


    Choose two of the most reliable wealth management companies and discuss a collaboration with them. If you succeed, you¡¯ll be rewarded.¡±


    Yin Xun handed the documents she had organized last night to Cheng She and explained some requirements and things to take note of.


    After Yin Xun finished speaking, Cheng She was puzzled and asked, ¡°President Yin, why do you suddenly want to do financial management? A shopping website should not have anything to do with financial management, right? These two are polar opposites.¡±


    One was to encourage users to save money with them, and the other was to encourage users to spend money. These two things could not be connected no matter how one thought about it.


    ¡°You¡¯re a spy. It¡¯s not appropriate to tell you. You¡¯ll know more after this matter is over.¡± Yin Xun had no intention of explaining and refused to answer Cheng She¡¯s question.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    That was right. How could he have forgotten about this? He was an undercover agent. Since he was a spy, there was no reason for him to refuse. Cheng She quickly agreed.


    Fortunately, Cheng She did not need to handle the game development himself. He just needed to keep an eye on things and did not need to tire himself out. Most importantly, he had money. Yin Xun was different from Si Fan. If Yin Xun promised to give him money, she would definitely give it to him.


    Yin Xun turned around and was about to leave when Cheng She stopped her. ¡°President Yin, are you really okay with leaving so many projects for me to handle? Especially this financial management one.¡±


    His implication was that if Si Fan called to ask what to do, he was not sure he could talk about this.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You can report this mission I gave you to Si Fan. With his brain, even if he finds out, he won¡¯t think it¡¯s of any use,¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    Cheng She nodded instinctively. That was true. If Si Fan was actually smart, he would not have been fooled by Yin Xun in the past.


    ¡°By the way, Si Fan should know about the Rhythm Short Video already, right? How did Blue Fox react?¡± Yin Xun asked calmly.


    Cheng She replied without thinking, ¡°They feel that you¡¯re very superficial. Xintao has just started to have some results, but they¡¯ve already placed their attention elsewhere. They said¡­¡± Cheng She looked at Yin Xun awkwardly and said,¡± They said that your ability is only average.¡±


    Yin Xun did not mind Blue Fox¡¯s mockery. Instead, she said with satisfaction, ¡°They will think that way. Very good. That makes it convenient for me.¡± Cheng She looked at Yin Xun in confusion, not knowing what she meant. However, Yin Xun did not elaborate. After explaining Cheng She¡¯s task, she returned to her office.


    She looked at Rhythm¡¯s comment section. It seemed that the users were very satisfied with the software.


    [Wow, this app lets you make money by posting videos. There are not many creators right now. Almost all of them are users. Let¡¯s hurry up and make videos now. I have a feeling that when this software becomes popular in the future, it will not be easy to make money with so many people.]


    [Short videos are really convenient. 1 didn¡¯t expect there to be a section for film critics. I¡¯ve always wanted to criticize those trashy television dramas!]


    Yin Xun was also very pleased with the countless good reviews of this software. It seemed that she could start the next step of the plan.


    While Yin Xun was reading the comments, Mi Jin came over.


    ¡°President Yin, there is a situation at Blue Fox¡¯s side. Normally, there should still be a week left for Blue Fox¡¯s event, but perhaps because the profits did not meet their expectations, they have to end it early. Today is the last day.¡± Mi Jin came in and reported directly to Yin Xun.


    Upon hearing Mi Jin¡¯s words, Yin Xun finally remembered what happened to Blue Fox.


    She asked, ¡°How did the users react?¡± She opened Blue Fox¡¯s webpage and saw many users scolding Blue Fox for lying.


    ¡°Normally, the users would be dissatisfied, but this time, there¡¯s no denying that the users have benefited from the event. It proves that Blue Fox was not lying. The only problem was that the event ended early. Therefore, although some users are dissatisfied, they did not make too much of a fuss,¡± Mi Jin reported truthfully.


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and smiled. ¡°In that case, let¡¯s help them stoke the fire and have them extend the event.¡±


    ¡°You mean¡­¡± Mi Jin looked at Yin Xun and immediately understood what she meant.


    Since Blue Fox did not want healthy competition, she would play with them all the way.


    At the same time, inside Blue Fox¡­


    Xu Lin and Le An were discussing how to rope in users after the event ended..

 Chapter 588 - Chapter 588: Fake Products

    Chapter 588: Fake Products


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Xintao has an exclusive express delivery, so we can¡¯t defeat them even if we fight a price war. The effect of replicating Xintao¡¯s activities isn¡¯t very good either. Our event is clearly much more intense than Xintao¡¯s back then, so why can¡¯t we attract users to spend like they did with Xintao?¡± Le An was puzzled.


    Xu Lin said, ¡°It has not been too long since Xintao¡¯s event. The customers have already spent money impulsively once. Now, it¡¯s not surprising that they can¡¯t spend anymore. That¡¯s why the effectiveness of this event was greatly reduced.¡±


    Le An rolled his eyes at Xu Lin. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you say so earlier?¡±


    Xu Lin,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡°You wouldn¡¯t listen even if 1 told you. In the end, you¡¯re even blaming me.


    While the two of them were talking, an employee came to report, ¡°President Le, Vice President Xu, something happened to Blue Fox. The users are not satisfied with the early end of the event. What should we do?¡±


    Upon hearing the report, Xu Lin immediately opened the webpage and found something related to Blue Fox.


    The announcement that the event had ended early was made yesterday. Although there were some bad reviews at that time, they spent money to buy some fake reviews. The criticisms were drowned out after a little refresh.


    The profits were too low. They could not keep doing business that was bringing a loss. The money they invested had not even been returned yet.


    The sales volume was the highest on the first day. The remaining days were slightly higher than usual, but it was far from enough. Logically speaking, ending this event early should not cause too much of a stir. However, when he looked at the Blue Fox comment section, it looked like everyone was complaining.


    [Just admit that Blue Fox is an untrustworthy company. They have backstabbed the users before. It¡¯s not strange that they betrayed us again this time. How can people still believe they have any integrity?]


    [This event looks very good, but there seem to be some fake products. The cosmetics 1 bought can¡¯t be found on the official website of the real product. What should I do? Blue Fox is such a big shopping platform. Don¡¯t tell me they don¡¯t even review the authenticity.]


    The other criticisms were fine, but when he saw the comments about fake products, Le An could not hold it in anymore.


    He pointed at the comments and asked Xu Lin, ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°President Le, those small shops were all collaborations when Si Fan was around. At that time, we hadn¡¯t taken over the company yet. Ever since we took over, we¡¯ve been so busy that we forgot to deal with these merchants,¡± Xu Lin said awkwardly.


    In the end, it was discovered that the platform was selling fake goods. Although the platform would not be punished legally, its reputation would be tarnished, since many people would get the impression that there were fake goods on the platform.


    This kind of small shop was owned by a single person. There was nothing much sold there except for some high-end imitations. They had long been aware of it, but as they were busy and there were too many shops, they did not have time to deal with that shop.


    Moreover, a small shop like that did not even participate in the event. It was suddenly discovered and publicized. It was obvious that it was done by the opposition.


    This was just great. All kinds of things were rushing together now. Blue Fox¡¯s comment section was a mess. It was not enough to just criticize and give low-star reviews. They were even planning to report Blue Fox.


    The platform was suddenly flooded with negative comments. Le An was so angry that he was fuming. He snarled, ¡°These are definitely reviewers hired by Xintao!¡±


    The employee who had just made the report said, ¡°President Le, there are only a few fake reviewers. After they posted a few guiding posts, they deleted their posts. The rest were posted by the users themselves, so even if we want to track down the fake reviewers ourselves, we can¡¯t find any now¡­¡±


    Seeing the anger in Le An¡¯s eyes, the employee added, ¡°President Le, you must know that the Internet is developed enough that anyone can go online. Many netizens don¡¯t have their own subjective thoughts and are easily swayed by public opinion. The key is that they only believe in negative news and not positive ones, so even if we send a legal letter now, it won¡¯t do anything. Also, the shop that sells fake goods is still there. The evidence is conclusive, so the people won¡¯t back down. I think we should deal with the problem of fake goods first.¡±


    To online purchasing companies, reputation was very important. After all, Blue Fox was not the only one. Users had other options. If needed, they could go to Xintao. Moreover, Xintao never had such problems since it started. The people trusted it more.


    Blue Fox¡¯s reputation had already collapsed once before. If it collapsed again this time, it would probably be very difficult to recover.


    ¡°Vice President Xu, you¡¯re in charge of this. I¡¯ll leave it to you.¡± Le An could not think of a solution, so he pushed everything to Xu Lin.


    Xu Lin,¡±¡­¡±


    Le An was planning to throw all the blame on him. If the situation was salvaged in the end, it would be credited to Le An. If they failed and something bad happened to Blue Fox, Xu Lin would definitely be the scapegoat, just like Si Fan¡¯s old assistant..

    Xu Lin sighed. What could he do? He was just an ordinary worker.


    However, he was not as stupid as Cheng She, who made all the decisions by himself.


    After Le An left, Xu Lin immediately contacted the big investors and held an emergency video conference to ask how to resolve this matter.


    Blue Fox had many investors, but the biggest ones were the Liu family, the Chen family, and the Zhao family.


    ¡°Lil Xu, didn¡¯t we just have a board meeting a few days ago? Why are we doing it again so soon?¡± Chen Jue, the President of the Chen Corporation, asked impatiently.


    Xu Lin quickly apologized. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Director Chen. There were some problems with our plan against Xintao. The results of the event are not going as planned. Some users even found out that our platform is cooperating with shops that sell fake goods. The matter is getting bigger and bigger. Users are threatening to report us.¡±


    Zhao Xian said indifferently, ¡°Do you need to call us over for such a small matter? Since there are fakes, just take down the shops selling fakes and make the shops compensate the users three times over. Then, we¡¯ll send a statement about this matter and apologize to the users. We¡¯ll assure them that we¡¯ll strictly supervise the partnering shops in the future.¡±


    The other two directors echoed his suggestion.


    Xu Lin had already thought of this idea, but he was worried that other problems would arise in the future. If he let the board of directors ask him to do it, then even if something went wrong in the future, he would not be blamed.


    ¡°What about the event? Do you want to postpone it?¡± Xu Lin continued to ask.


    After pondering for a moment, Liu Yi said, ¡°If the incident with fake goods didn¡¯t happen, we could have ended it earlier. At least we still have an excuse. But with the fake goods commotion, the users¡¯ trust in us has fallen. It¡¯s just prolonging the event for a few more days. We have many investors, so we can afford to invest this bit of money.¡±


    Everyone else agreed. Xu Lin heaved a sigh of relief. He voiced the doubts in his heart. ¡°1 believe that this incident was caused by Xintao. Should we take precautions?¡±


    Zhao Xian said angrily, ¡°What¡¯s there to be afraid of? I¡¯ve been keeping an eye on Xintao recently. Recently, many of their users have been snatched away by us, but Xintao hasn¡¯t made a move. It¡¯s obvious that they don¡¯t dare to continue fighting with us. As long as Xintao doesn¡¯t make a move, we don¡¯t have to care about them either. We just have to think of a way to attract users.¡±


    Chen Jue added, ¡°1 heard that Yin Xun just opened a short video platform. Back then, when 1 heard about Yin Xun fighting Si Fan, I thought that she was pretty skilled. From what 1 see now, she also seems to be a proud person. Just because she thinks Xintao is one step ahead of our Blue Fox, she¡¯s completely forgotten about us. Someone like that won¡¯t achieve anything great.¡±


    Speaking of the short video platform, Xu Lin felt that something was wrong.


    He frowned and said, ¡°Yin Xun is probably the one who caused this incident. However, 1 keep feeling that she¡¯s just diverting attention. Oh right, could it be related to that short video platform?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s just a video app. It has nothing to do with shopping apps. Even if she intends to focus all her energy on it, it won¡¯t affect us much. Look, when Blue Fox went out to attract users, Xintao didn¡¯t make a move at all. It seems that Si Fan is right. Yin Xun is a woman with limited knowledge. She won¡¯t be able to achieve anything big,¡± Chen Jue said.


    Who would abandon their most important project halfway and go for a new one? Not to mention, it was at a time when the competition was particularly intense.


    When Xu Lin heard this, he stopped thinking about it too.


    Because of the fake goods incident, Blue Fox had put all its energy into investigating the guilty shops.


    Mi Jin had been paying attention to Blue Fox¡¯s movements. When he saw Blue Fox¡¯s new announcement and apology to the users, he excitedly went to look for Yin Xun.


    He reported this matter to Yin Xun, but Yin Xun was not surprised. She had long guessed that this would be the outcome.


    ¡°President Yin, what should we do next?¡± Mi Jin asked.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Continue to keep an eye on Blue Fox. 1 have something to discuss outside.¡±


    ¡°All right,¡± Mi Jin said, and he left the office.


    Yin Xun took out a document from the table. She had something very important to discuss, so she had to do it herself.


    Just as she got up, her phone rang. Yin Xun took it out and saw that it was Qu Lin.


    Thinking back to the conversation she had with Qu Lu the other day, Yin Xun felt an inexplicable sense of panic. She had called Qu Lin so many times, but the calls never went through. This time, Qu Lin had actually taken the initiative to call her. She checked the time; it was still early for the discussion, so she answered the call..

 Chapter 590 - Chapter 590: Celebrities

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Sister Yin, my sister told me that you¡¯re planning to work with her to open a company.¡± Qu Lin¡¯s muffled voice came from the other end of the phone.


    Yin Xun¡¯s heart tightened. She thought that Qu Lin was angry and wanted to calm her down, but Qu Lin¡¯s next words were, ¡°We¡¯ve already talked about what happened in the past. My sister told me everything. The incident when 1 was young was caused by Ding Shan. Yesterday, I asked her and I tricked the truth out of her.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s good that the misunderstanding has been resolved.¡± Indeed, it was not Qu Lu¡¯s doing. Yin Xun heaved a sigh of relief.


    Other than Si Fan, who else could be born evil? Especially when it came to those who went down the wrong path following some encounter, as long as you were willing to reach out and pull them back, they could be redeemed.


    Qu Lin continued, ¡°I went to my sister¡¯s orphanage yesterday and found out why she was so sensitive to things. The living environment there was really horrible. It was simply inhumane. She never went out of her way to torment me, but 1 bullied her for so many years. Originally, I wanted her to work in our company, but she insisted on starting her own company, so the funding problem was handed to me.¡±


    Toward the end, Qu Lin actually started crying. It seemed that she had really cleared things up with Qu Lu.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Sister Yin Xun. 1 didn¡¯t mean to ignore your calls yesterday. It¡¯s just that I¡¯ve been busy with other things. I¡¯ve decided to invest in rebuilding that orphanage!¡± Qu Lin said.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s good. When my company stabilizes in the future, we can do public welfare together.¡±


    Since she had Qu Lin¡¯s support, it seemed that Liu Ying¡¯s group could bring forward their plan. When she was done handling her recent matters, she could give Liu Ying some time off to investigate the market.


    The two of them did not talk for long before Yin Xun hung up; she still had a meeting to attend.


    Now that Rhythm Short Video was officially released, it could be used to support Xintao¡¯s operations. As it had just started, Yin Xun had done little advertising. Just clicking on them would send you to Xintao. This way, if users saw anything that they were interested in, they could directly buy it.


    She asked Mary to help her contact a popular celebrity called Wen Yi. Although she did not have a good reputation and did not have any acting skills, because she was good with makeup and was beautiful, she attracted many fans.


    Lin Zhu had already gained some fame because of his makeup videos and had many female fans. Wen Yi also had her own fan base.


    If Yin Xun allowed these two to promote goods for her cosmetics, she might be able to rely on the celebrity effect to achieve good results. At the same time, she could also help Lin Zhu improve his reputation. This was related to the goods from her original world.


    Previously, when Mary went to talk about celebrities, she received a lot of eye-rolling. However, Yin Xun realized that when she went to talk to the celebrities, they treated her with respect, despite clearly having the same manager.


    Mary had gone with Yin Xun. Seeing her manager, who was frequently angry with her, suddenly fawn at Yin Xun, she secretly complained, ¡°As expected, capitalists are the rulers here. Other people don¡¯t have human rights.¡±


    ¡°Am I considered a capitalist?¡± Yin Xun pointed at herself and asked.


    Mary nodded. ¡°You¡¯re the daughter of the Yin family. As long as you want, you can send anyone into the entertainment industry. As long as you have money, things will work out.¡±


    ¡°Even me¡­¡± Hearing Mary¡¯s words, Yin Xun suddenly thought of Tian Chu.


    She could tell that Tian Chu liked to perform, but she could not show her face because of the contract. Anyway, Tian Chu had signed a contract with her. If Tian Chu was willing, Yin Xun might be able to try sending her back to the entertainment industry.


    Tian Chu was now a blogger who signed a contract with Rhythm, so she already had her own fans. If she could become more popular, perhaps she could consider opening a film company in the future.


    However, this kind of thing could not be rushed. She needed to slowly formulate a plan.


    Her discussion with Wen Yi was very successful. Wen Yi agreed to help Yin Xun bring the goods and promote Xintao at the same time. One of the conditions Yin Xun gave her was that the platform would make sure to publicize her in the future. As long as it was a video about her, there would be no restrictions.


    Since the person who brought the goods had been confirmed, the next step was to negotiate with the merchants and see which one was willing to participate in the event. As this was the first time for the event, everyone, including Yin Xun, was not sure if the outcome would be good. In addition, this kind of selling method required the merchants to lower the price, so many merchants were hesitant.


    They all believed in Yin Xun¡¯s ability, but they were afraid that they would not be able to make it back after committing.


    Yin Xun knew what everyone was worried about and assured the merchants. ¡°This is the first test, so I won¡¯t force everyone to join. Xintao will make up for all the losses this time..¡±

 Chapter 591 - Chapter 591: Never Contact Him

    Chapter 591: Never Contact Him


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    With Yin Xun¡¯s promise, there were finally some merchants who were willing to join the test.


    Since they had to do a live broadcast to sell goods, the requirement for smooth internet and video uploading was very strict. Mi Jin began to work overtime again, trying to ensure that there would be no problems on the first day.


    Yin Xun, on the other hand, was busy preparing for work.


    Fortunately, there were not many things to sell in the first live broadcast. Yin Xun also hired a few professionals with a high salary, which made the preparations in the early stages more bustling and orderly.


    For the sake of Wen Yi and Lin Zhu¡¯s reputation and to prevent the users from being scammed, every product had to be tested. Yin Xun was even cautious of the big brands. Cosmetics were fine as long as they did not cause allergic reactions. As for skincare products, Yin Xun distributed them to the employees. Everyone received a set, even the men, so everyone did not mind using them.


    They used the products according to the brand¡¯s advertising timing to see if it had any effect.


    Many things could be sped up, but with skincare, the testing needed to follow a time frame. This was something that money could not solve. Therefore, Yin Xun was not in a hurry this time and lengthened the timeline.


    The first step was always the most important. As long as they posted a reliable image at the beginning, even if something bad happened in the future, the users would probably attribute it to an accident, although Yin Xun did not intend to let this happen.


    During the testing stage, Lin Zhu became famous for his great respect for women and his gentleness and consideration for every special situation, He won over many fans.


    When the live broadcast was successful, Yin Xun decided to let him keep focusing on this direction in the future.


    While Yin Xun and the other employees were busy preparing, Lin Zhu was not idle either. He had been simulating the sale of goods.


    Even though he was practicing in advance, what surprised Yin Xun was that Lin Zhu did not make a single mistake throughout the entire process. It was as if he was born for such a thing.


    Xintao was busy with the live broadcast. Blue Fox was busy handling the counterfeit goods. For the past few days, the two companies had reached a strange balance. Blue Fox did not cause trouble for Xintao anymore.


    However, just because Blue Fox did not do anything did not mean that Si Fan would keep still. Since he was being ostracized by Blue Fox and had nothing to do every day, he focused his attention on Xintao.


    A counterfeit shop had just appeared on the Blue Fox platform. Yin Xun somehow did not make use of such a big matter. He cursed Yin Xun in his heart. He slandered her for being useless. She did not even cherish such a good opportunity.


    He did not know what Yin Xun was doing at such a critical moment. Even Cheng She had not reported to him for two days in a row, so he called Cheng She when he got off work.


    ¡°Cheng She, didn¡¯t I ask you to report the situation of Xintao and Yin Xun to me every night? Why didn¡¯t you send a report? Do you want to quit? 1 sent you over to be an undercover agent. No matter what happens, you have to report to me immediately. Otherwise, you¡¯ll suffer!¡±


    As soon as Cheng She answered the call, he was scolded by Si Fan.


    ¡°President Si, I¡¯ve been busy recently, and so has Yin Xun. 1 haven¡¯t seen her for the entire day,¡± Cheng She said.


    ¡°Busy? You¡¯re just a spy. Are you actually working hard for Yin Xun?¡± Si Fan asked.


    Cheng She hurriedly said, ¡°No, there¡¯s no way I¡¯m working for her sincerely. I¡¯ve been spending her money as hard as I can as per your instructions. She trusts me more and more and is starting to let me come into contact with her other businesses. I think the more this happens, the more beneficial information I can provide you.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s more like it.¡± Si Fan¡¯s tone finally calmed down a little. He snorted coldly and said, ¡°Yin Xun has thrown all the work to you, right? What else does she have to be busy with? Isn¡¯t it just these few projects? There are even people sharing her workload. She can¡¯t be hiding somewhere and slacking off, right? She¡¯s just a woman. She has little knowledge. Now that such a good opportunity has presented itself, she doesn¡¯t even know how to defeat Blue Fox with it. Instead, she¡¯s doing something useless. What a fool.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    He did not know what to say for a moment. Si Fan had already made conclusions about Yin Xun based on his subjective feelings. Even if he said that Yin Xun was doing something serious, Si Fan would think otherwise.


    ¡°By the way, what kind of job did you take? Why haven¡¯t you reported it? If you don¡¯t report it next time, 1¡¯11 think you¡¯re going to betray us.¡± Si Fan¡¯s tone was irritable.


    Hearing Si Fan¡¯s words, Cheng She felt aggrieved. He had already left Blue Fox, yet he still had to suffer Si Fan¡¯s anger.


    If not for the fact that he was afraid of being targeted by Si Fan, he would immediately block all of Si Fan¡¯s contact details and never contact him again..

    Chapter 592: Yin Mo Was Beaten Up


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, he did not dare to fall out with Si Fan right now. He could only endure it.


    He explained, ¡°President Si, this is the situation. Yin Xun asked me to check information about wealth management companies. She might want to collaborate with such a company, but she didn¡¯t tell me what she plans to do.¡±


    When Si Fan heard this, he was immediately amused and said mockingly, ¡°Haha, this is the first time I¡¯ve heard of a shopping website discussing wealth management. Shopping websites desperately make users spend their money. Could it be that she wants to sell wealth management products on the website? If that¡¯s the case, it¡¯ll be interesting. The law shouldn¡¯t allow it, right?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sure she won¡¯t. 1 would guess she discovered some business opportunities inside, so she wants to tap into it.¡± Cheng She rolled his eyes.


    Selling wealth management products on shopping websites was impossible even for the most uncultured people.


    Financial management was a product developed by formal banks and financial institutions. If it was sold on Xintao, Yin Xun would be the crazy one.


    Also, Si Fan actually had the cheek to talk about the law. He had clearly done many illegal things.


    Although Cheng She was complaining in his heart, he did not show. He said to Si Fan, ¡°By the way, President Si, there¡¯s something else 1 have to report to you. Yin Xun has been contacting celebrities recently. Although I don¡¯t know the details since I¡¯m not allowed to participate in this project, 1 think Yin Xun must have sensed the threat from Blue Fox and wants to find a celebrity to endorse her. Of course, this is just my deduction.¡±


    That day, Yin Xun seriously asked him to tell Si Fan about the collaboration with celebrities. She even said that since Si Fan would ask him for information, he might as well tell him everything he knew. However, Yin Xun did not tell him the purpose of her collaboration with the celebrities.


    Cheng She sighed in his heart. He was almost a double agent now. He was helping Si Fan gather information and also helping Yin Xun convey the news.


    ¡°Looking for celebrities to endorse her? That¡¯s a good idea. Yin Xun must have been anxious when she saw Blue Fox spending all that money on an event. She hasn¡¯t done anything. She must be thinking of a solution. Hehe, 1 knew it. It¡¯s impossible for her to be patient. Indeed, women are short-sighted things. As long as she patiently monitored Blue Fox¡¯s situation, she would have found out that Blue Fox wasn¡¯t earning money at all. She should have just waited patiently and she can turn the tables.¡±


    Si Fan¡¯s words were filled with disdain.


    Cheng She took a deep breath. Previously, Si Fan had criticized Yin Xun for not doing anything to Blue Fox¡¯s current situation. Now, he slandered Yin Xun for making a move. Si Fan really knew how to say anything.


    Yin Xun¡¯s work skills were the best Cheng She had seen in many years. She was even more thoughtful and bold than some of those men. Previously, when he was by Si Fan¡¯s side, he had also underestimated her. After he was defeated by her, he saw her in a new light.


    However, Si Fan was too prideful. He could not defeat Yin Xun in terms of raw ability, so he could only vent his anger with words.


    Cheng She opened his mouth and wanted to retort. When he heard how much Si Fan looked down on Yin Xun, he was unconvinced and wanted to argue. However, in the end, he chose not to say it because of his status.


    Forget it. He was just an employee. Why should he be so sincere to those capitalists? He just had to do his own job well.


    After the two of them finished exchanging information, Si Fan mocked Yin Xun a few more times before the call ended.


    Si Fan was standing at the entrance of the villa when he made the call. He put his phone away before going back. Before he called, he had been holding back his anger at the company and had beaten Yin Mo up to vent.


    Originally, as long as Yin Mo was obedient, he would not go overboard. However, Yin Mo unexpectedly told him that she wanted to go home and even wanted to call Yin Xun.


    When he heard Yin Xun¡¯s name, he finally lost his rationality. He could not control his strength and beat Yin Mo half to death.


    Although he called the family doctor over to patch up Yin Mo¡¯s wounds, Yin Mo continued to weep. She cried so much that Si Fan was annoyed.


    When he returned to the villa, Yin Mo¡¯s crying still rang in his ears.


    Si Fan originally wanted to return to his room directly, but the news he just received made him feel pretty good. He thought about how he had gone overboard with Yin Mo just now. Although Yin Mo had threatened him with marriage, she had also promised to give her heart to Si Xia after all. Based on this alone, he had the obligation to treat Yin Mo slightly better.


    At the very least, he should not hurt her body. What if something happened before the heart transplant?


    With that thought in mind, he went to Yin Mo¡¯s room. Yin Mo was wrapped in many bandages, and her face was covered in bruises from his beatings.


    When Yin Mo saw Si Fan enter, she thought that she was going to be beaten up again. She was so frightened that her body curled into a ball and she even stopped crying..

 Chapter 593 - Chapter 593: Isnt This Good Enough?

    Chapter 593: Isn¡¯t This Good Enough?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Si Fan walked in front of her and patted Yin Mo¡¯s head like he was petting a kitten. He said gently, ¡°I was in a bad mood just now, so 1 accidentally hurt you. It¡¯s all my fault. Look, 1 got the family doctor to treat you. 1 didn¡¯t leave you alone. Isn¡¯t this good enough?¡±


    Yin Mo looked at Si Fan in shock. This was the first time Si Fan had been so gentle to her since her trickery was exposed.


    ¡°Fan, are you not angry with me anymore?¡± Yin Mo¡¯s eyes were filled with anticipation.


    As expected, Si Fan still had a place for her in his heart. The reason he treated her like that previously was only because he was angry. Yin Mo kept convincing herself with these thoughts as if she had forgotten all the heartless words they exchanged in the past.


    ¡°As long as you agree to transfer your heart to Xiaxia without getting a marriage certificate, 1 won¡¯t be angry with you anymore.¡± Si Fan gently pinched Yin Mo¡¯s chin and lowered his head to kiss her.


    However, when he saw the wound on Yin Mo¡¯s face, a hint of disdain flashed across his eyes. Yin Mo was too ugly. He did not want to kiss her, but in order to make Yin Mo believe him, he still kissed her.


    It was just a light kiss, but Yin Mo felt extremely blissful. She even wondered if she was going to resume her intimate relationship with Si Fan.


    However, although she really wanted to return to the same relationship as before with Si Fan, the issue with marriage could not change.


    ¡°No, if you really love me and want to treat me well, we have to get a marriage certificate,¡± Yin Mo said firmly.


    Seeing that he could not persuade Yin Mo no matter what, Si Fan¡¯s anger surged again. He snarled, ¡°Since you won¡¯t accept my respectful offer, forget it!¡±


    As he spoke, he slapped Yin Mo hard in the face. Before Yin Mo could react, Si Fan turned around and left quickly.


    Yin Mo was stunned by Si Fan¡¯s slap. When she realized that she had said something wrong, Si Fan had already left.


    Tears welled up in her eyes. She began to reflect on what she had done to make Si Fan angry again. She had actually rejected Si Fan¡¯s request. It had been a long time since Si Fan had used such a gentle tone to ask her for anything.


    She wanted to call Si Fan back again, but after Si Fan left, the servant came in. The servant glared at her fiercely. Yin Mo was afraid of being beaten, so she did not dare to speak.


    The next time Si Fan came over, she would definitely agree to Si Fan¡¯s requests and make him fall in love with her again.


    After Si Fan left, he went to the study and called Le An. Si Fan told him that he had found out some information and wanted to make a deal. Just like last time, if it ended up being useful, he would be promoted.


    ¡°Are you sure your information is reliable? You promised the same thing last time, but in the end, you couldn¡¯t help at all.¡± Le An was skeptical.


    Si Fan was a little impatient. ¡°Don¡¯t be in such a hurry to refuse. At the very least, you should hear my news before saying such things. I¡¯m only asking if you agree to this deal.¡±


    Le An said, ¡°Sure. Let¡¯s hear it.¡±


    Si Fan told Le An about the news he had received from Cheng She. However, the only difference was that Si Fan swore that Xintao would hire an ambassador.


    Le An was not convinced and fell silent.


    Si Fan assured him, ¡°The news this time is definitely true. Even if it¡¯s fake, Blue Fox won¡¯t lose anything, right? Now that Blue Fox¡¯s reputation is in the dumps, it¡¯s a good time to find someone to endorse us. We can improve our reputation this way. It can be done during the event itself. Coupled with the influence of celebrities, no matter how you think about it, we won¡¯t lose to Xintao. Besides, you have so many investors. Can¡¯t you even gather such a small sum of money?¡±


    This time, Si Fan¡¯s words made sense. A celebrity endorsement was indeed a good idea.


    ¡°This is not a small matter. I need to hold a board meeting to decide,¡± Le An said in a low voice.


    Si Fan snorted coldly and said, ¡°If we don¡¯t rush to do this before Xintao, watch out that the event doesn¡¯t fail again.¡±


    It was already dark. After the two of them ended the call, Le An immediately contacted a few investors and Xu Lin to hold a video conference to discuss what Si Fan had said.


    The investors agreed with Si Fan¡¯s plan. Although they needed money, this was a reliable investment. With the fans of celebrities helping to give good reviews, it would not be long before the matter of the fake products would be blown over.


    However, Xu Lin raised an objection. ¡°This kind of thing should be a business secret. How did Si Fan know? Also, is this news reliable? We¡¯re just a shopping platform, not a merchant that sells our own products. Shouldn¡¯t our mission now be to review the merchants and ensure that users can shop with peace of mind? Reputation can be accumulated over a long period. As long as we focus on protecting the interests of our users, Blue Fox¡¯s reputation will naturally improve..¡±

 Chapter 594 - Chapter 594: Seizing The First Opportunity

    Chapter 594: Seizing The First Opportunity


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, Le An rejected his point of concern. ¡°Our goal is to make money and be the number one in the industry. As long as we can achieve this goal, things will be fine. We¡¯re supporting the users because we want them to spend more money on our platform. As long as we can achieve our goal, that¡¯s all we need. We don¡¯t need to care about the process.¡±


    Several other investors also agreed with Le An.


    Xu Lin was still a little worried. He said, ¡°Although 1 only met Yin Xun once, I am aware of everything that happened after she returned to the country. She had a lot of original ideas and never played by the rules. Didn¡¯t Si Fan fall into her traps repeatedly back then?¡±


    ¡°Si Fan is a fool. If the company is still led by Si Fan, even if there are investors like us, he will still lose to Yin Xun. Xu Lin, you¡¯re only the vice president. You should listen to our plans and take action.¡± Le An was a little annoyed with Xu Lin speaking up for Yin Xun.


    Xu Lin took a deep breath and said, ¡°Yes.¡±


    After that, he stopped talking. He was just an employee. There was no need for him to work so hard for his superiors. Most importantly, it was a thankless task. In the end, the decisions were made by them. Even if something happened, it would have nothing to do with him.


    Xu Lin shut his mouth and stopped voicing his thoughts. Le An continued, ¡°If we just improve ourselves and let Xintao continue to develop, we might not be able to surpass Xintao in the end. We still need to find a way to deal with Xintao. After all, no one wants Blue Fox to continue being second. Everyone wants to earn money, not to do charity.¡±


    Everyone fell silent. After a moment, Zhao Xian said, ¡°1 have an idea¡­¡±


    Ever since Cheng She gave Si Fan the information according to Yin Xun¡¯s request that day, he had been worried every day.


    Firstly, he was afraid that Yin Xun was testing him and would find him unqualified. Perhaps she would dislike him and fire him the next day on the pretext that he put his left foot through the doorway first. Secondly, he was afraid that Yin Xun was deliberately using him to set a trap for Si Fan. If Si Fan found out, he would definitely kill him in the future.


    At this moment, he admired those international spies for being able to handle such difficult situations.


    Two days after Cheng She told Si Fan that Yin Xun had signed a contract with a popular celebrity, Blue Fox quickly signed with an A-list celebrity and claimed them to be the spokesperson of the company.


    This method was indeed not bad. The spokesperson had their own popularity and fans. In order to increase the numbers, they reposted this news on multiple platforms.


    For a moment, Blue Fox¡¯s popularity doubled.


    Yin Xun had been doing simulated live broadcasts downstairs, and she was also busy dealing with goods. Because she was too busy, she did not even look at her phone. In addition, all the employees working with Mi Jin and Rhythm Short Video were also busy; they worked overtime almost every day.


    In contrast to them, Cheng She seemed to have nothing to do every day. He had already taken care of the financial matter and was just waiting for Yin Xun to have time to make a final confirmation. He did not need to develop the game himself. He just had to watch others work on it. After a character was done, he would post it on the official account to see the fans¡¯ reaction.


    So far, only one character seemed dissatisfactory to the fans. The other characters that were well-received were labeled as husbands and wives by the players.


    The unpopular character was a big bearded man, who was tall and strong. Cheng She had wanted to make this character a handsome man, but Yin Xun insisted on adding a big man to the crowd of handsome men and beautiful women.


    As for why, Yin Xun said that generic beauty could easily bore the fan. They required a combination of beauty and roughness to make the game characters more popular. In the end, when this character was announced, he immediately received a few slanders.


    The remaining characters were still being designed. Cheng She had nothing to do now, so he had been paying attention to Blue Fox¡¯s movements.


    When he saw Blue Fox announcing the celebrity endorsement, Cheng She was a little anxious. Yin Xun was the first to come up with this idea. He did not expect Blue Fox to beat them to it.


    In the business world, whoever started the marketing first will snatch the users and win the battle. Blue Fox and Xintao¡¯s money-burning events were the best examples of that.


    Xintao¡¯s huge event attracted a large number of users to spend impulsively. Not long after, Blue Fox also came up with this method. In the end, they had yet to return their capital. The sales volume was also much smaller. This was the advantage of seizing the market first.


    Now, because of his leaking information, Blue Fox obtained an ambassador before Xintao. That meant that Xintao¡¯s efforts might be wasted..

    Although it was Yin Xun who told him to tell Si Fan, Cheng She still felt that it was his fault in the end.


    After all, aside from this, he had also told Si Fan everything else.


    After mentally preparing himself, Cheng She went to look for Yin Xun to tell her about this. When he arrived at the Rhythm office downstairs, Cheng She stood at the door, not knowing if he should go in.


    Someone inside noticed him and came over to ask him what was the matter, but they did not seem inclined to let him in.


    After all, the office was filled with important things now. Knowing that Cheng She was looking for Yin Xun, he first asked Yin Xun for her opinion. After getting permission, he let Cheng She in.


    Cheng She reported to Yin Xun about Blue Fox finding a celebrity to endorse them. When Yin Xun heard this, not only did she not look angry, she even looked pleased.


    ¡°Did they really sign the endorsement with that movie star?¡± Yin Xun was slightly stunned and could not believe it.


    She did not expect Blue Fox to spend so much money. Yin Xun knew that the movie queen was a haughty person. Since Blue Fox managed to hire her, they must have spent a lot of money.


    Cheng She nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s right. That movie queen has a very good reputation in the industry. She¡¯s also popular with the common folk. I heard that Blue Fox spent a lot of effort to sign her. Apparently, the endorsement fee is twice the investment fee for their event.¡±


    ¡°As expected, they rely on spending money. 1 must say, it¡¯s nice to have more investors. They can even afford to burn money to such an extent.¡± Yin Xun could not help but sigh.


    ¡°President Yin, are you not disturbed by this?¡± Cheng She asked curiously.


    After all, this was a chance to make more money.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Why should I mind? I never signed a contract with a celebrity for their endorsement.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    ¡°Celebrity endorsement has limited use. Coupled with the problem of fake goods at Blue Fox, it might instead burt the movie queen¡¯s resume. The movie queen actually doesn¡¯t have that many hardcore fans. It¡¯s just because her acting skills are great that normal people have a good impression of her. If we really want to compete in purchasing power, we still have to look at the more popular celebrities,¡± Yin Xun said. ¡°As for what Xintao plans to do, you¡¯ll know soon.¡±


    Hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Cheng She realized why Yin Xun had asked him to tell Si Fan directly about this. She wanted to send Si Fan the wrong signal.


    Blue Fox¡¯s situation was not very good at the moment, and Si Fan was anxious to regain his power. He would definitely use this information as a bargaining tool.


    At the thought of this, Cheng She looked at Yin Xun with even more awe.


    Yin Xun had immediately seen through his undercover identity. Not only did she not fire him, she even used him to deal with Si Fan. However, this issue had caused him a lot of trouble. He would probably be scolded by Si Fan again. However, what did Yin Xun want to do?


    He glanced around the office. There were boxes and cosmetics everywhere. Cameras to. Honestly, he could not figure it out.


    However, a few days later, he found out what Yin Xun¡¯s goal was.


    Yin Xun had been preparing for a live broadcast for five days.


    In the past five days, although there was quite a commotion in the Rhythm workshop, they were good at keeping things secret. Cheng She only knew that she was busy, but he did not know what she was busy with.


    During this period, with the top actress endorsing Blue Fox, their popularity was indeed much higher than before. On the surface, Xintao was currently at a disadvantage. The higher-ups of Blue Fox were feeling good about themselves. They felt that Blue Fox had a chance to surpass Xintao.


    Si Fan had done well in providing information. He had regained some of his rights and could participate in business work. Although he was still not allowed to join important meetings, Si Fan was already very satisfied with his first step.


    In any case, Cheng She was still in Xintao. He could report the situation at any time in the future. There were many opportunities for him to be promoted slowly.


    Then, Xintao and Rhythm released an announcement at the same time, which said, [Wen Yi will be a guest in Lin Zhu¡¯s livestream room and they will recommend skincare and cosmetics that she thinks are good. To ensure authenticity, Wen Yi will appear in front of the camera without makeup and then show everyone the joy of makeup.]


    The moment this news was released, the fans reacted strongly. Even the passersby who recognized the name were shocked.


    Wen Yi was not really a beauty, but she was especially good at using makeup. Back then, she had relied on makeup to make a name for herself in the industry, which made her fairly popular. She was the only female celebrity with more female fans than male ones.


    However, because of her good looks, her reputation was not very good. At the same time, there were many ugly photos of her on the Internet. The matter of whether she had plastic surgery had been discussed for several years.


    That was Wen Yi. Ever since she debuted, she had never been seen putting on makeup in front of the camera. Even when she participated in shows, she had to put on makeup even when she slept. She never let her true appearance be exposed in front of a camera.


    This time, she actually agreed to put on makeup live. Her makeup was almost comparable to plastic surgery. Everyone who knew about her was excited and was looking forward to the event..

    Xu Lin had been paying attention to Xintao. When he saw Xintao¡¯s announcement, although he did not know what Yin Xun¡¯s plan was, he knew that the situation might not be good. At least, this was not good news for Blue Fox.


    He immediately reported to Le An, but the president did not seem to mind.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t Xintao just finding a popular celebrity to endorse cosmetics? We¡¯ve got a movie queen to endorse the entire platform. The scale is completely different. What¡¯s there to worry about? Moreover, that celebrity¡¯s reputation isn¡¯t great. Is Yin Xun going to broadcast the endorsement? Then when the broadcast starts, find some keyboard soldiers to cause trouble in the comments section. For popular celebrities with a bad reputation, if there¡¯s just a bit of slandering, their reputation will be crushed,¡± Le An said indifferently.


    Xu Lin said concernedly, ¡°I think things might not be that simple. They said that they would recommend cosmetics for a live broadcast. Are they asking celebrities to sell their products directly?¡±


    Le An waved his hand dismissively. ¡°Let celebrities sell their goods? Are you crazy or is Yin Xun crazy? How is that possible? Let¡¯s not talk about anything else. Celebrities have to pay attention to their image at all times. In front of outsiders, they have to maintain their image. Making them sell goods directly will not reflect well on their identities and will cause problems.¡±


    Le An saw that Xu Lin still seemed concerned and could not help but snap at him. ¡°I asked you to keep an eye on Xintao at all times because 1 wanted you to find a way to defeat them. Why are you wasting your effort on such a small matter¡­¡±


    ¡°Yes, if you say it¡¯s fine, then it¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll go back to work now!¡± After being scolded by Le An, Xu Lin quickly replied and left.


    He felt very aggrieved. He kept comforting himself in his heart. None of this matters. He was just a worker. Anyway, the requests were all from the leaders. If anything bad happened, it was not his fault.


    With this thought in mind, he finally heaved a sigh of relief and went back to work.


    Everyone who was watching Yin Xun, including Cheng She, thought that she was just looking for a spokesperson. It was not until the live broadcast began that everyone knew what her plan was.


    She was actually selling goods live!


    The live broadcast had just started, and hundreds of thousands of people flooded into the live broadcast room. Not only were there fans of the celebrity, but there were also many ordinary viewers who just wanted to see Wen Yi without makeup.


    With so many viewers flooding in at once, if it were any other platform, the livestream would have long been paralyzed. However, Rhythm Video had already been fully optimized by Mi Jin before the livestream began. No matter how many people there were, it would not crash. It could even support loads of people placing orders at the same time.


    Everyone could comment at any time as if they were watching an online video. They were all asking when Wen Yi would come out.


    Lin Zhu was in charge of the live broadcast as the host. Yin Xun was watching the scene from the sidelines of the camera, ready to deal with any unexpected situations.


    Lin Zhu tried his best to reply to all types of comments before briefly introducing the content of the live broadcast.


    This time, the show was mainly to help everyone recommend some goods that they had tested and felt were very useful. With the cooperation of the merchants, the goods would be sold to everyone at the lowest price available on the Internet.


    After the introduction, Lin Zhu added pointedly, ¡°Take note that this is not a full discount event. No matter how nice full discounts might be, that kind of benefit is only applicable under the premise of buying multiple products. On the other hand, you can buy anything that has a reduced price on this livestream room, no matter what it is, at the lowest price. In addition, please help share the news of the livestream room. We have a reposting lottery event. The biggest prize is ten thousand yuan and there will be ten winners.¡±


    Ten spots meant that the chances of winning were great. Instantly, all the users of the live stream began to repost the event.


    Originally, some of them only downloaded Rhythm and came to watch the show. They did not even download Xintao. When they saw this reward, they quickly downloaded Xintao and shared it.


    The preparations were finally done. Now, it was time for Wen Yi to go on stage.


    In the comments, the audience was all calling for Wen Yi to appear. Some of them were already getting anxious and lashed out at Lin Zhu. Some even directly cursed him in the comments.


    Lin Zhu ignored these comments and did not let them affect his mood.


    Yin Xun had been watching from the side. When she saw the comments, she asked Mi Jin to check the background information of these people.


    ¡°They¡¯re all newly registered accounts. Looks like they¡¯re deliberately trying to set the pace.¡± After Mi Jin finished checking, he reported to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Block them permanently.¡±


    As for the other accounts that had been registered in Xintao for some time already, Yin Xun only asked Mi Jin to block them for now.


    With this, the users could still see the comments posted by themselves. The others in the livestream would not see them.


    Finally, there was less scolding in the comments section. Lin Zhu invited Wen Yi out under Yin Xun¡¯s instructions. ¡°Come, the most important part of tonight is here.. Let¡¯s invite our guest in!¡±

 Chapter 597 - Chapter 597: Removing Make-Up Live

    Chapter 597: Removing Make-Up Live


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Wen Yi walked out with a smile on her face. The audience, who had been looking forward to her appearance, was instantly disappointed. Wen Yi was actually wearing makeup. Everyone thought that Xintao was deceiving people for the sake of popularity. Someone started to flood the screen again.


    After greeting everyone, Wenyi took a look at the comments. Her expression was calm as she smiled and said, ¡°Everyone, I know what everyone wants to see. It hasn¡¯t started yet. The reason I came here with makeup is not to deceive everyone, but to give everyone a comparison. 1¡¯11 remove my makeup on the spot later, so please don¡¯t be anxious.¡±


    After greeting Lin Zhu and making a brief self-introduction, the two of them began their main goal for the day¡ªselling products.


    The first thing they wanted to recommend was the makeup remover. Lin Zhu first introduced the advantages of this makeup remover and then handed it to Wen Yi under everyone¡¯s anticipated gazes.


    Wen Yi took the bottle and poured out a little. She said to the camera, ¡°If 1 came here without makeup, I¡¯m sure everyone would think that I¡¯m faking it. They won¡¯t really believe me. Instead of waiting for me to explain myself, it¡¯s better to let everyone watch me remove my makeup. That way, it¡¯ll be more direct.¡±


    As she spoke, she began to remove her makeup.


    It was a live broadcast, so Wen Yi could not fake it. As her makeup was slowly removed, her bare face appeared on camera.


    The makeup remover was effective. Wen Yi only needed to wipe her face a few times before everything on her face was wiped off. To end it, she used a makeup remover cotton. The tip was clean, and everyone knew that she had finished removing her makeup.


    Everyone finally knew what Wen Yi looked like without makeup.


    The shape of her face had not changed, but her makeup had been removed. Her eyes looked smaller, her nose was more caved in, and her mouth had become a little bigger. Her skin was not in great condition, and she had a tired look as though she stayed up late all year round.


    The comments section was filled with things like,


    [Oh my god, so Wen Yi really relies on makeup to become beautiful. She¡¯s really a god of makeup. That¡¯s amazing!]


    [Previously, the fans kept bragging about how beautiful she was and said that she had natural beauty. Now, she has revealed her true colors. She¡¯s just so-so without makeup. Her skin condition is similar to mine and she looks pretty ordinary. She doesn¡¯t deserve the title of a superstar at all.]


    [Are the people criticizing Wen Yi jealous? She relied on her makeup skills to become famous. This is her ability. If you don¡¯t like it, you should also think of a way to become famous and become a big star. No one will stop you from doing it. Wen Yi is skilled and a beauty. Eat your heart out.]


    There were praises, critiques, defendings, and so on. The comments section exploded.


    However, Wen Yi remained calm and maintained her smile. ¡°Everyone has different aesthetics, and everyone has different expectations for me, so 1 accept all kinds of comments. However, the usefulness of this bottle of makeup remover is objective. 1 think everyone has seen how effective it is¡­¡±


    That was true. Everyone was divided about Wen Yi¡¯s appearance, but no one had any objections about the effectiveness of the makeup remover.


    After all, Wen Yi could not fake it in front of the live broadcast camera.


    Someone compared the sale to the original price and found that it was indeed much cheaper. There was no need to make a full discount event. This event was a bargain. Later on, under Wen Yi and Lin Zhu¡¯s recommendation, the makeup remover was immediately snapped up.


    Everyone was cursing each other and fighting over the products.


    Mi Jin, who had been observing the situation from the side, was confused by this scene. He turned his head and softly said to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, your idea was great. I finally understand why you insisted on her.¡±


    Back then, when Yin Xun confirmed that she wanted to choose Wen Yi, the employees of Rhythm Short Video all objected.


    These people had always been in contact with celebrities and knew how bad Wen Yi¡¯s reputation was. They were afraid that bad rumors would affect Xintao¡¯s reputation.


    However, Yin Xun insisted on using Wen Yi, saying that this would be better at producing a contrasting effect.


    From the looks of it, the desired effect had indeed been achieved. It was precisely because there was a huge difference between Wen Yi¡¯s bare face and makeup that it could better encourage users to buy cosmetics.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°The haters know better than fans how vulnerable the celebrities are. Fans naturally don¡¯t have to care about this. With their idol taking the lead, fans will definitely spend. The haters and ordinary audiences are the main targets this time. As long as they see how effective the product is, they will surely place orders.¡±


    The makeup remover was just the beginning. The content of today¡¯s live broadcast was all related to cosmetics. There were not many types, but it was just enough to make a complete set..

 Chapter 598 - Chapter 598: Great Effect

    Chapter 598: Great Effect


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After that, Wen Yi washed her face, did skincare, and applied foundation. She told everyone what to do to stop the powder from getting stuck. After this series of actions, the usually sparkling celebrity appeared in front of the camera again. It was as if the ordinary girl who had just removed her makeup was just an illusion.


    To be able to put on such flawless makeup, the prerequisite was that the makeup must be up to par.


    Otherwise, no matter how skilled she was, she would not be able to avoid losing fans. With Wen Yi¡¯s ¡°sacrifice¡±, tonight¡¯s cosmetics inventory had been snatched up. At the same time, Wen Yi¡¯s reputation had even improved.


    The audience praised her for her personality. She was not angry even when she was critiqued. In addition, it indirectly proved that she did not have plastic surgery. She only relied on makeup to change her facial features.


    What was there to criticize about such a hardworking personality? Even ordinary girls had the right to become beautiful. Who said that celebrities had to be born beautiful? Good skills were also important.


    When she saw the audience praising Wen Yi, Yin Xun¡¯s lips curled up slightly. She immediately asked Mi Jin to start putting in a good word for Wen Yi.


    Everyone had the mentality of following the crowd. When they saw so many others praising Wen Yi and agreed with the words, they also joined in the praise. The sentiment was that she achieved her fame because of hard work. Many viewers who came to watch the show became Wen Yi¡¯s new fans.


    The number of viewers in the livestream kept increasing. During the stream, Yin Xun asked Mi Jin to get the hired keyboard warriors to repost the event every once in a while.


    The purpose of the first live broadcast was not to make money but to make themselves known.


    Until the goods were sold out and the live broadcast ended, the platform almost collapsed from the sheer number of people. Later on, Mi Jin asked someone to keep an eye on and maintain the broadcast. With that, the stream continued smoothly to the end.


    The sales results this time were very great. The cosmetics brands were overjoyed.


    After the products were sold, they also gained a good reputation. More importantly, this was equivalent to Wen Yi endorsing the brand. It was a great profit.


    In the future, when people mention this cosmetics brand, they will instinctively recall that it was recommended by Wen Yi. They could save on advertising fees like this.


    In order to allow other products to be sold like this next time, the owners of multiple brands invited Yin Xun to a meal to get closer to her.


    Now, it was Cheng She¡¯s turn to take action. Yin Xun asked Cheng She to help her deal with the invitations from the brand owners. She still had something to ask Wen Yi about.


    Wen Yi was resting in the VIP room.


    When she saw Yin Xun coming over, she quickly stood up to greet her. ¡°President Yin, 1 am really grateful to you. When I removed my makeup, 1 was so nervous that I almost passed out. My body was trembling, but fortunately, I managed to control myself later on. Oh right, 1 apologize to you for what happened before. Please forgive me.¡±


    When Yin Xun was looking for her to discuss a collaboration, she was told that Yin Xun wanted her to remove her makeup on the spot. She felt that Yin Xun wanted to make a fool out of her to gain popularity. Something like this had happened before, as if only by embarrassing herself would they get attention.


    No one would want to collaborate with others for such a reason. Wen Yi was strongly against this.


    Therefore, although her manager was polite to Yin Xun, she did not plan to entertain her. After all, her name was well-known because of negative news, so she did not care about another bad reputation.


    At that time, she did not know Yin Xun¡¯s true identity. She only thought that she was the boss of Xintao, a small website that had just started.


    As a popular celebrity, she was more than capable of dealing with such a small website.


    However, in the end, because of the huge amount of money Yin Xun offered, she could not resist the temptation and reluctantly agreed.


    The amount she was offered was equivalent to what she could only get after filming three television dramas. She had entered the entertainment industry to earn more money. How hard was it to film television dramas? She might not even get into the shows if she failed the review. However, she was offered a spot with just a word from Yin Xun.


    There was another important reason; Yin Xun had agreed to her request. As long as Wen Yi did as she was asked, Yin Xun gave her word that nothing would happen to her. In addition, her bad reputation might be reversed.


    What she said in the livestream was just a script that Yin Xun had written in advance. As Yin Xun had said, not only did her reputation survive, but she even gained a straightforward and magnanimous persona.


    In addition, she had just found out about Yin Xun¡¯s true identity. She was actually the daughter of the Yin family!


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright, Miss Wen. Our collaboration this time was great, but 1 need your help with something..¡±

 Chapter 599 - Chapter 599: Si Fan Was Pleased

    Chapter 599: Si Fan Was Pleased


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What is it?¡± Wen Yi asked.


    Yin Xun extracted a document from her bag and handed it to Wen Yi. ¡°You¡¯ve just worked with Lin Zhu, so you should know he¡¯s the blogger contracted to me. Other than him, 1 am working with another blogger. I¡¯m sure you know her. Her name is Tian Chu.¡±


    Hearing the name, Wen Yo¡¯s pupils constricted. She said in surprise, ¡°The Tian Chu who left the industry right after she became popular? When she hit it big, I was still a nobody. But why did she give up on being a big star and come here to be an inconspicuous blogger?¡±


    After she finished speaking, she realized that her words sounded inappropriate. Wen Yi immediately covered her mouth and quickly apologized. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, President Yin. 1 didn¡¯t mean to look down on your company. 1 just meant that, with such a small platform, being a video blogger does not seem to offer any way out¡­¡±


    The more she explained, the worse it sounded. Wen Yi quickly stopped talking. She was not good at communicating with people and was regularly scolded by her manager for lacking common sense and EQ. Now that her manager was not around, she finally realized her problems.


    Seeing the flustered state of Wen Yi, Yin Xun paid it no attention. She smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. You¡¯re correct. Rhythm is just a small platform. It¡¯s indeed not very helpful for her to develop. Therefore, 1 would like you to help Tian Chu put on the image of a loving sister. 1 want her to return to the entertainment industry. In return, Rhythm will help promote all your work for free in the future. In addition, we will suppress any negative news about you.¡±


    Yin Xun had already discussed this with Tian Chu.


    Tian Chu actually loved performing, but because she was targeted in the past, she had to give up on her enthusiasm.


    Yin Xun agreed to help her return to the entertainment industry on the condition that she sign a lifetime contract with her. Tian Chu agreed readily.


    This was equivalent to Yin Xun nurturing a celebrity for herself. In the future, this will be a great asset, be it for Xintao¡¯s publicity or continuing to sell goods live.


    After all, this was not the only project she wanted to do. She would need to find someone to endorse her in the future. Of course, it was safest to find her own artiste.


    Yin Xun¡¯s offer was very enticing. Wen Yi was tempted, but she could not make the decision to agree. No matter what it was, she had to listen to her agent.


    Hence, she called her manager to ask about it. To her surprise, her manager agreed without any hesitation.


    ¡°That¡¯s the daughter of the Yin family. There¡¯s no harm in being on good terms with her!¡± the manager said over the phone.


    After getting permission, Weny Yi agreed to Yin Xun¡¯s request. When they were done discussing things, Wen Yi said goodbye to Yin Xun and left.


    As for the rest of the matter, Yin Xun gave Mary full authority to handle it. Mary had more experience in this area than she did. After all, Mary was the one who interacted with Tian Chu the most.


    It was their first time selling goods live, and the result was very good. In order to compensate the employees for their recent hard work, Yin Xun directly gave them two days of paid leave. She also gave them overtime pay.


    While some people celebrated, some people elsewhere were upset. Xintao was raking in great results, but Blue Fox¡¯s side was not doing well.


    They had invested a lot of resources into this event and even invited a top actress to be their spokesperson. After doing so much, they lost to Yin Xun¡¯s live broadcast.


    Seeing that Xintao had made a lot of money and even won a good reputation, Le An vented his anger on Cheng She.


    ¡°1 told you to keep an eye on Xintao. Why didn¡¯t you report such important news?¡± Le An called Cheng She over and scolded him.


    Cheng She said aggrievedly, ¡°I¡¯ve already reminded you many times, but you didn¡¯t listen¡­¡±


    Le An was suddenly speechless.


    Cheng She added, ¡°President Le, 1 suggest that you hold a board meeting to discuss with everyone how to deal with Xintao.¡±


    Le An listened to Cheng She¡¯s suggestion this time and immediately held a board meeting. At the same time, he also called Si Fan over.


    When all the directors had arrived, Si Fan showed up.


    Previously, he could not attend the board meetings. This time, he was actually requested to come over. His vision must have succeeded.


    Recently, Yin Mo and Si Xia have been causing a lot of ruckus. He did not have the time or energy to focus on other things, so he naturally did not hear about the live broadcast.


    Thinking of the promise between him and Le An, Si Fan could not help but feel a little smug. The first step to regaining power had already been cleared.


    When he arrived at the meeting room, he saw everyone staring at him. He said proudly, ¡°How is it? Was my method useful this time? You¡¯ve been on guard with me in the past. Now you realize that I¡¯m Blue Fox¡¯s backbone.¡±


    Le An sneered. ¡°Backbone? It¡¯s lucky that you¡¯re not in charge of Blue Fox now. Or the company will collapse sooner or later. I called you over today to tell you something.. In the future, just stay in your position obediently, and don¡¯t think about getting back your power!¡±

 Chapter 600 - Chapter 600: Opposing Them

    Chapter 600: Opposing Them


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Si Fan heard this, he was stunned. What was going on? Was there something wrong with his information? He looked at the meeting room and realized that no one even prepared a chair for him.


    Under the disgusted gazes of the investors, Si Fan was chased out of the meeting room.


    He had never been mistreated like this before. He immediately took out his phone and called Cheng She, but Cheng She did not pick up after several call attempts.


    Si Fan was so angry that he was about to explode. However, at this moment, the servant called his phone.


    ¡°President Si, something happened to Miss Yin Mo¡­¡±


    Si Fan cursed in his heart. Not caring that his pay would be cut and that he would be scolded, he promptly left the company and rushed back to the Si residence.


    After Le An chased Si Fan out of the meeting room, he began to discuss with the investors how to deal with Xintao.


    Zhao Xian frowned and said, ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect Yin Xun to use a live broadcast to sell goods directly. The results were very good. Looking at their turnover, this live broadcast got more sales than we sell in a week. What should we do?¡±


    ¡°The most important question now isn¡¯t how much they¡¯re selling, but how much money they¡¯re spending. Xintao just bought the core technology of the mapping company, and they¡¯re working hard on a video game, as well as Rhythm Short Video. They¡¯ve set up a short video website and invited many celebrities. All of these costs add up. Where did Xintao get so much money?¡± Chen Jue wondered.


    Liu Yi¡¯s expression was a little strained. He covered his mouth and coughed. He said awkwardly, ¡°After all, the investor of Xintao is the young master of the Fang family, Fang Yao. Didn¡¯t Lil Xu already find out last time? We all know how rich the Fang family is.¡±


    Chen Jue shook his head and said, ¡°The Fang family is wealthy, but they are no fools. Xintao must have more than one investor to be able to fork out so much money at once¡­¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s indeed not just the Fang family. Other than the Fang family and the Qu family, they have many other investors,¡± Le An interrupted Chen Jue and said slowly to Liu Yi.


    ¡°What? We¡¯re one of the top companies in the country. It¡¯s fine if it¡¯s the Fang family or the Qu family, since they don¡¯t listen to others when they do things. But why would anyone else dare to invest in them when they know about our investments? They¡¯re directly challenging us!¡± Zhao Xian was furious.


    Even if they do not dare to cross the Fang family, would they act the same to those other investors?


    Zhao Xian said, ¡°Who are the other investors? Tell us. We¡¯ll teach them a lesson and let them learn the consequences of offending us!¡±


    Xu Lin, who had been sitting silently at the side, slowly said, ¡°Your daughter is among those investors.¡±


    Zhao Xian,¡±¡­¡±


    It turned out that the fool was actually his child. Damn, he had spoken too soon. Things were getting awkward. What should he do now? Zhao Xian¡¯s flushed as he felt exasperated.


    ¡°Zhao Xian, 1 didn¡¯t expect you to be such a person,¡± Chen Jue snapped. ¡°On the surface, you¡¯re supporting Blue Fox but you¡¯re actually afraid that something will go wrong in the future, so you had your child invest in Xintao. Am 1 right?¡± Zhao Xian hurriedly said, ¡°Old Chen, how dare you suspect me? Am 1 that kind of person? I didn¡¯t know about this at all!¡±


    ¡°Oh, that means you didn¡¯t teach your child well. To think she would fight her own father. If you really want the best for Blue Fox, then you should take a step back. Let us handle this and teach that little girl a lesson¡­¡±


    Xu Lin glanced at Le An, then coughed lightly and said, ¡°Um, Director Chen, your son seems to have invested in it too.¡±


    Chen Jue,¡±¡­¡±


    The words that were used to criticize Zhao Xian applied to him too now. It was awkward.


    While the two of them struggled to find words, Liu Yi heaved a long sigh of relief. He said in a relaxed tone, ¡°Since both of your children also invested in Xintao, I don¡¯t have to be so nervous. I¡¯m not the only one who made this mistake. 1 thought that as long as my child did this, hahaha¡­¡±


    Everyone at the meeting rolled their eyes. Was there anything to be laughing at now?


    No one could stand being suppressed by a company that their own children had invested in. They felt embarrassed. However, there was something to be gained from this They could blame all the failure on their children without feeling any psychological pressure.


    ¡°No wonder we kept suffering losses. It turns out that the problem is with the children. They must have been monitoring us and telling Yin Xun about our decisions. That¡¯s why Yin Xun escaped us every time,¡± Chen Jue said hatefully.


    Zhao Xian said with a dark expression, ¡°That¡¯s right. Those brats dare to go against their parents. We¡¯ll see if she learns her lesson when I get back. Don¡¯t worry, President Le.. 1 promise 1¡¯11 get my child to withdraw the investments!¡±

    Chen Jue also declared that he would ask his child to withdraw his investment. If the kid dared to resist, he would show him some ¡°fatherly love¡±.


    However, Liu Yi did not say anything. Everyone else looked at him.


    Although no one spoke, the meaning in their eyes was obvious.


    Liu Yi lowered his head and pretended not to see it.


    Chen Jue coughed and said, ¡°Old Liu, you¡¯re the most unreliable among us. You clearly knew that your child invested in Xintao, so why didn¡¯t you tell us? Could it be that you¡¯re actually favoring Xintao? We all know that your Liu family has been working with the Yin Corporation. Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re an undercover agent gathering information. How else can you explain why we suffered at Xintao¡¯s hands every time? It¡¯s as if Yin Xun knew our plans in advance.¡±


    When Liu Yi heard Chen Jue framing him, he said grumpily, ¡°Old Chen, don¡¯t accuse an innocent man. One of the reasons my family invested in Xintao was because of an unfortunate event when we cooperated with the Yin Corporation. If we weren¡¯t threatened by them at the time, we would have canceled the cooperation long ago.


    ¡°Besides, the children are all grown up. They all have their own thoughts. Do you think they will listen to us forever? I¡¯ve already advised her before, but she refused to listen. Because of this, I chased her out of the house. She hasn¡¯t been home for a long time. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can ask around.¡±


    ¡°How can we be sure that you guys did not discuss it in advance? One person is investing in Xintao, and the other is investing in Blue Fox. By investing separately like this, no matter which side fails in the end, there will be a way out. The only downside is that you will earn less.¡± Zhao Xian and Chen Jue looked at each other and also criticized Liu Yi.


    In any case, all the blame was on Liu Yi now. With that, they did not have to be the center of attention.


    The three of them were usually on poor terms with each other. The reason everyone invested in Blue Fox was because they each had their own motives. Now that there was a problem, they all criticized each other without reservation.


    Seeing that the three of them were about to argue, Le An quickly tried to smooth things over. ¡°Everyone, we¡¯re all in the same boat. Everyone¡¯s interests are connected. There¡¯s no way anyone would do something to harm their own interests. Therefore, this might be a misunderstanding. As long as everyone goes back home and resolves it, everything will be fine.¡±


    Under Le An¡¯s comforting words, the three of them finally stopped arguing.


    Seeing this, Le An heaved a sigh of relief and continued, ¡°It¡¯s not enough to solve the children¡¯s problem now. They¡¯re just a small issue. The biggest problem is Fang Yao and the Qu family. After my investigation, I found that the main investor in Xintao is Fang Yao, and the Qu family only invested a little. The Qu family¡¯s share is about the same as the children combined. It¡¯s not very important.


    ¡°The Fang family and the Qu family have a good relationship. The Qu family has never been involved in small businesses. The reason they invested in Xintao this time is very likely because of Fang Yao. Therefore, we only need to think of a way to get Fang Yao to withdraw his investment. If we get the children to withdraw their investment too, there¡¯s nothing to be afraid of in Xintao.¡±


    Although this was a good idea in theory, how could they get Fang Yao to withdraw his investment? Their expressions suddenly became solemn. They did not know much about the Fang family.


    They only knew a little, and that was something that even outsiders could find out.


    The Fang family¡¯s ancestors were connected by marriage. They had both power and wealth. Later on, they opened banks and did all kinds of business.


    Today, the Fang family¡¯s assets were not only inside the country, but also overseas. However, no one knew exactly what they had and how much, and no one dared to investigate in detail.


    The family elders were already so powerful. As the only son of the Fang family, Fang Yao had been influenced by them since he was young and had a strong business acumen.


    It was said that he did not rely on his family for money since he started university. He had built his company from scratch. In addition, more than 70 companies in the world¡¯s top 100 had shares with Fang Yao, let alone the companies after the top 100.


    Whether it was the Fang family or Fang Yao alone, they were both existences that they could not challenge. In terms of spending money, even if Fang Yao did not have the help of the Fang family, he was probably not afraid of challenging them face-on at all.


    ¡°So, how do we deal with Fang Yao? If he can take him out of the equation, Xintao will surely crumble,¡± Zhao Xian said.


    These words sounded simple, but everyone knew how difficult it was to do this. How could they deal with Fang Yao? With Fang Yao¡¯s power, if he decided to retaliate, everything would be over.


    There was another problem. Fang Yao rarely showed his face. They had never seen him in the newspapers or various media outlets. They did not know his preferences either, so it was difficult to deal with him..

    The leaders discussed for a while, but in the end, they still did not come to a conclusion.


    Xu Lin, who had been quietly listening to the others, suddenly said, ¡°Leaders, perhaps we don¡¯t have to deal with Fang Yao.¡±


    Everyone looked at him. Chen Jue asked in a deep voice, ¡°What do you mean?¡±


    Xu Lin explained, ¡°There are only two online purchasing companies in the market now, us and Xintao. Almost all the merchants open shops on both our websites at the same time. The market is so big and there is enough for both of us. As long as we can improve the service level of our website, users will be very happy to come to our website to shop.¡±


    ¡°Even if you guys think that they pose competition for us, we can find a completely different operating method from Xintao. For example, Xintao focuses on speed and service, so we can focus on cheaper traffic. Of course, I¡¯m just giving an example. I don¡¯t think there¡¯s a need to fight Xintao to the death. It¡¯s not good for anyone if both sides suffer in the end¡­¡±


    ¡°What rubbish theory!¡± Before he could finish, Chen Jue interrupted him. ¡°I¡¯ve never heard of opponents that can coexist peacefully. Even if they look harmonious on the surface, they want to kill each other behind their backs. Don¡¯t mention such nonsense again in the future. I¡¯ll start to doubt your business ability.¡±


    Xu Lin immediately shut his mouth and did not dare to continue.


    Zhao Xian rolled his eyes at Xu Lin and said, ¡°Do you think Fang Yao will continue to invest in Xintao if we keep pulling Xintao along to burn money with us? Don¡¯t forget; Yin Xun also has a game under her name now. Xintao and Rhythm must need a lot of money.¡±


    Le An shook his head. ¡°How about this? We have many uncertain factors now. Let¡¯s do things one by one. When you go back today, withdraw the children¡¯s investment first. Then, we¡¯ll discuss how to deal with Fang Yao. Also, Lil Xu¡­¡±


    After giving his instructions, he turned to Xu Lin and said, ¡°Go and write up a plan. Leave things to me the next time we have a meeting. No need to be anxious. If we want to deal with Xintao, we still have to take it one step at a time.¡±


    ¡°Alright, President Le.¡± Xu Lin gritted his teeth and agreed.


    Even these leaders did not discuss how to deal with Fang Yao. They actually asked him to write a plan report immediately. What should he even write? He cursed in his heart, but he did not dare to show his displeasure on his face.


    Everyone discussed a while longer, but in the end, they could not come up with a perfect solution. They could only follow Le An¡¯s suggestion and start with the few brats at home.


    After the meeting ended, Liu Yi immediately called Liu Ying, planning to make her withdraw her investment.


    When the call went through, he immediately asked Liu Ying to withdraw her investment.


    Liu Ying replied impatiently, ¡°Dad, we¡¯ve agreed before that you can¡¯t control me during this period, and 1 won¡¯t ask you for money. As for the money I took from you previously, just pretend that 1 borrowed it. I¡¯ll return it to you in the future. You¡¯re getting old, so don¡¯t go back on your word; the juniors will see you as a joke. Anyway, no matter what you say, 1 won¡¯t withdraw my investment. Just give up on this idea.¡±


    ¡°If you don¡¯t withdraw your investment, I won¡¯t help you watch after your brother anymore. You know his personality. Since he likes Yin Xun, he will definitely continue to pester that girl in the future¡­¡± Liu Yi tried to use Liu Cheng to threaten Liu Ying.


    To his surprise, Liu Ying was not worried at all. She said indifferently, ¡°Sure, as long as you¡¯re happy.¡±


    With that, she hung up without waiting for Liu Yi to speak.


    Liu Yi tried to call again, but he was blocked. He had used his new phone number to call.


    ¡°It¡¯s because I treated her too well in the past that she¡¯s going against me now. If I had known earlier, I wouldn¡¯t have given her so much money. As expected, 1 don¡¯t worry as much about my son. It¡¯s not in vain that I decided to give all my assets to Lil Cheng. These two children¡­ Fortunately, there¡¯s a child who¡¯s on my side,¡± Liu Yi muttered.


    Liu Yi was furious with Liu Ying, while Liu Ying was also angered by Liu Yi.


    After hanging up, she immediately called Yin Xun and told her that she had been scolded by Liu Yi and that Liu Cheng might come to harass her in the future.


    Afraid that Yin Xun would be put in a difficult position, Liu Ying quickly added, ¡°Yin Xun, do whatever you want to my brother. Don¡¯t feel reserved because of me. No matter what consequences he suffers, he asked for it!¡±


    ¡°Alright, thank you.¡± Yin Xun smiled and thanked her.


    After that, Liu Ying complained to Yin Xun for a long time. She only hung up when her phone was almost out of battery.


    Yin Xun looked at the time. Twenty minutes had passed since she got off work. No wonder it was so quiet outside..

 Chapter 603 - Chapter 603: Inexplicable Hostility

    After packing her things, Yin Xun drove home.


    When she passed by Fang Yao¡¯s house, she saw the butler standing at the entrance of the villa worriedly.


    The butler was waiting for Yin Xun. When he saw Yin Xun¡¯s car drive over, he hurriedly greeted her and his expression looked much better.


    ¡°Miss Yin, our Young Master is not at home today. He is afraid that you will not be able to have dinner here. He is making do with instant noodles later, so he asked me to prepare the food in advance and wait for you at the door.¡± The butler quickly walked to the doorstep as he spoke to Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun was stunned. ¡°Fang Yao isn¡¯t home?¡±


    The butler nodded and looked at Yin Xun. He wanted to say something but hesitated.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, is there something you need to tell me? You don¡¯t have to be reserved with me. If you have something to say, just say it,¡± Yin Xun said.


    The butler looked left and right. He took a deep breath as if he was making a huge decision. He said solemnly, ¡°Miss Yin, it¡¯s like this. Our Madam had a car accident, and she is currently in the hospital for emergency treatment. After Young Master found out, he immediately rushed over. 1 just received news that Madam has lost too much blood, and she might need a blood transfusion¡­¡±


    Yin Xun nodded faintly. ¡°Did you manage to get a blood transfusion?¡±


    Truth be told, she did not care much for Lin Chan. It was not just because she had been put in a difficult position back then, but also because she simply was not familiar with Lin Chan. She was only a little concerned because she was Fang Yao¡¯s mother and Fang Yao was her friend.


    The butler had an awkward smile on his face. He was silent for a while. Finally, when Yin Xun was about to speak, he finally asked, ¡°Miss Yin, I would like to ask you¡­ What is your blood type?¡±


    Yin Xun was stumped. She tried her best to recall if her body had been tested for blood type. After confirming that there was no such information, she replied, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I never tested. Does Mrs. Lin really need a blood transfusion?¡±


    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s very serious, but Madam Lin has a rare blood type. Currently, there¡¯s no suitable blood in the blood bank, so¡­ Actually, I know that it¡¯s presumptuous of me to ask you this question given my status, but I¡¯m really worried about Madam, so¡­ please don¡¯t take it to heart.¡± The butler revealed a rare anxious and nervous expression.


    ¡°Which hospital are they in?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    The butler¡¯s eyes lit up. He quickly said, ¡°Renxin Hospital!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll go over now.¡± After getting an answer, Yin Xun immediately turned the car around and drove toward Renxin Hospital.


    She knew what the butler wanted. Lin Chan was on the verge of death due to an accident, but the hospital¡¯s blood bank was insufficient. The butler wanted her to help.


    Although she and Lin Chan had some disagreements previously, she was Fang Yao¡¯s mother, after all, and Fang Yao was her most important business partner. For the sake of Fang Yao and her career, she had to do her best to help.


    If the blood type was somehow the same, she would donate blood. If it was different, she would just show her concern.


    On the way to the hospital, Yin Xun drove very quickly. After arriving at the hospital, she immediately called Fang Yao to ask for their exact location.


    When Fang Yao answered the call, he was a little surprised to hear that Yin Xun had come over. However, he did not say anything else. He only told Yin Xun which floor the emergency room was on.


    However, Yin Xun did not go to Fang Yao immediately. Instead, she went to take a blood test first. After everything was done, she went to the operating theater.


    Yin Xun saw a few people standing at the door. Among these people, she only knew Fang Yao. The rest of them had fierce gazes and stood upright, looking like bodyguards.


    ¡°It¡¯s you¡­¡± When those people saw Yin Xun, they all stared at her.


    ¡°What are you doing here?¡± One of them rushed over with a dark expression, looking like he was about to attack Yin Xun. He looked like he was not someone to be trifled with. Yin Xun instinctively took a few steps back, wanting to avoid the man.


    ¡°Lin Xuan.¡± Before the man could take two steps, Fang Yao grabbed his arm and stopped him from going forward.


    The man named Lin Xuan immediately stopped moving and glared at Yin Xun.


    Other than him, the others also looked at Yin Xun warily. This situation confused Yin Xun. She did not remember offending these people.


    Fang Yao looked at the people at the door of the operating theater and said calmly, ¡°You¡¯d better behave yourselves.¡±


    With that, he ignored the others and walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side. A smile appeared on his cold face. He asked Yin Xun, ¡°Why are you here?¡± He could only ask more questions when Yin Xun was right in front of him.


    Yin Xun came back to her senses and did not waste any more time. She immediately revealed her purpose for coming over. ¡°I heard that your mother has lost a lot of blood and needs a blood transfusion. I never paid attention to my blood type before, so I didn¡¯t know what blood type 1 was. I went to take a test and we¡¯ll know the results later.¡±


    Before the results were out, the Qu sisters arrived as well..

 Chapter 604 - Chapter 604: Taking Blood

    Chapter 604: Taking Blood


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The last time they met, the two sisters were still butting heads. This time, their relationship was obviously much better. Even if they were not very intimate, at least they could coexist peacefully.


    After all, under normal circumstances, they would have surely come here separately.


    The people present greeted each other. Qu Lin briefly asked about Lin Chan¡¯s situation, and then none of them spoke further.


    About seven or eight minutes later, a nurse came over and called Yin Xun. She said that Yin Xun had AB-type RH-negative blood. She had the same rare blood type as Lin Chan and could transfuse blood.


    Hearing this result, everyone except Fang Yao heaved a sigh of relief.


    Everyone stared at Yin Xun hopefully. Only Fang Yao looked at her with a solemn expression. Although he did not say anything, Yin Xun could sense his worry.


    Thinking that he was worried about Lin Chan, Yin Xun comforted him in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Logically speaking, there shouldn¡¯t be any problems as long as blood is provided. This hospital¡¯s medical standards are quite advanced, so you don¡¯t have to worry.¡±


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Fang Yao had a thousand words in his heart, but he only managed to say two words.


    Yin Xun smiled at him and immediately left with the nurse. After confirming the blood type, she did a blood test and confirmed that there was no problem with her blood. She followed the nurse¡¯s instructions and donated 4oocc of blood. After everything was done, the nurse briefly told her what to take note of before Yin Xun walked out.


    Although she had never donated blood in the past, she always saw others donate blood and assumed there was no problem with donating blood.


    However, she did not expect her body to react strongly after the blood donation. Just as she got up, Yin Xun felt weak and dizzy.


    She had lived in two worlds for so long, but she had never donated blood. This time, when her blood was drawn, she realized that the adverse effects were more serious than expected. This was even with her body that often exercised and ate nutritious meals.


    The nurse said that it was a normal reaction and told her not to do any strenuous exercise for a while. Fortunately, there was nothing to worry about. After walking out of the room, Yin Xun saw Fang Yao at the door.


    ¡°How do you feel?¡± When Fang Yao saw Yin Xun, he quickly walked over to support her. At the same time, he handed her a bottle of glucose. ¡°Drink this.¡±


    Yin Xun said nonchalantly, ¡°It¡¯s just donating some blood. It¡¯s not a big problem. I¡¯ll be able to replenish it quickly after eating some good food these few days.¡±


    Fang Yao looked at her deeply for a while, then smiled and said, ¡°Okay, thank you.¡±


    Yin Xun looked up and asked Fang Yao, ¡°By the way, as long as there¡¯s blood, does that mean that Madam won¡¯t be in any danger?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s what the doctor said. The biggest problem now is blood loss.¡± Fang Yao frowned slightly. ¡°1 didn¡¯t expect you to not even know your blood type. Fortunately, nothing bad happened to you. You could have been in danger.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true. Looks like 1 have to be more careful when cutting fruits in the future. This blood type is too precious. It¡¯s pretty hard to find a match. If 1 can¡¯t find one, 1 guess 1¡¯11 just¡­¡± Wait for death. She looked at Fang Yao awkwardly and did not say finish the sentence.


    Fang Yao knew what she meant. He smiled faintly and did not say anything else.


    Originally, Fang Yao wanted to carry Yin Xun on his back, but Yin Xun rejected the offer, saying the situation was not that serious. Fang Yao knew Yin Xun¡¯s personality. If she needed him to carry her, she would tell him directly.


    Therefore, he did not insist. Instead, he helped Yin Xun back to the door of the operating theater.


    This time, when they returned to the entrance of the operating room, the people there were looking at her rather strangely. They were no longer as hostile as before.


    The man called Lin Xuan even came over to bow and apologize to Yin Xun. Yin Xun knew that these people were definitely close to Lin Chan, which was why the man acted like this when he learned that Yin Xun had saved Lin Chan.


    She had no intention of taking credit for it. Since she could make a friend out of this person, she would certainly choose that over making him an enemy. Yin Xun smiled and accepted his apology graciously.


    Unexpectedly, this was only the beginning. With Lin Xuan taking the lead, the others no longer acted distantly to her. Instead, they all came over enthusiastically to ask Yin Xun how she was feeling. The situation had changed completely from before.


    Yin Xun was shocked by their enthusiasm and quickly pretended to be dizzy again. Fang Yao immediately caught on and put on a nervous expression. He helped Yin Xun to a chair further away and let her sit down.


    When the others saw that Yin Xun was not feeling well, they tactfully stopped going forward.


    With Yin Xun¡¯s blood, Lin Chan was soon out of danger. However, she was still in a coma. They just needed to wait for her to wake up. The doctor informed everyone and reassured them..

 Chapter 605 - Chapter 605: Time To Recruit

    Chapter 605: Time To Recruit


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing that Lin Chan was fine, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. It was getting late, and Fang Yao knew that Yin Xun had not eaten dinner yet. The butler told him that Yin Xun had just returned and immediately gone over to donate blood.


    Her body would not be able to take it, so Fang Yao wanted to send Yin Xun home personally.


    However, Yin Xun insisted on staying. ¡°Well, actually, i don¡¯t have to leave. I¡¯m fine. I just need to rest for a while. You don¡¯t have to send me back. 1 can drive back myself when I¡¯m better.¡±


    In truth, she wanted to wait a little longer to see if Lin Chan would wake up. She was not a kind and selfless person. She would agree to help Lin Chan, partly because saving a life was very important, but partly because she had her own selfish motives.


    Lin Chan was the Lady of the Fang Family. If she was indebted to her, it would be beneficial to both the Yin Family and Xintao in the future.


    She knew that Lin Chan did not really like her. She could use this opportunity to change her opinion of her.


    However, Fang Yao insisted on sending her back. Yin Xun could not dissuade him, so she could only go back with him.


    On the way back, Fang Yao called the butler and instructed him to make more dishes to replenish her blood. Yin Xun could hear the butler agreeing happily.


    Fang Yao personally sent Yin Xun back to his villa. When he saw the butler rushing out to welcome them, Fang Yao carefully instructed him to take good care of Yin Xun before returning.


    The butler watched as Fang Yao left. He smiled as he said, ¡°I heard that Madam has already passed the critical period. It is all thanks to Miss Yin. In the future, you will be our Fang family¡¯s benefactor.¡±


    ¡°¡­ Saving a life is better than building a seven-story tower. It¡¯s the right thing to do,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile.


    The butler lived up to Fang Yao¡¯s expectations. He made Yin Xun dishes that nourished her blood and replenished his energy. After only eating fitness meals for so long, Yin Xun was overjoyed. She could finally eat to her heart¡¯s content.


    Since Fang Yao was not at home, the butler stood by the side and chatted with Yin Xun, who was eating with him. The two of them were already quite familiar with each other. Moreover, Fang Yao was not so fussy about this and allowed the butler to interact with Yin Xun like a friend. The atmosphere was harmonious and relaxed.


    After Fang Yao left, he called his assistant. ¡°Lil Zhou, the company should be hiring soon, right?¡±


    Lil Zhou was silent for a few seconds. Perhaps thinking about which position the company was lacking at the moment, he eventually replied firmly, ¡°President Fang, our company is not short of people at the moment.¡±


    Fang Yao said decisively, ¡°It¡¯s time to recruit. You can decide on the positions. Try to recruit as many employees with AB-type Rh-negative blood as possible. As for the necessary treatment, we¡¯ll calculate it according to the best standards.¡± In the end, he added, ¡°Remember, ability doesn¡¯t matter. All that matters is their health.¡±


    Hearing the last sentence, Lil Zhou immediately understood what Fang Yao meant.


    He was recruiting rare blood-type employees and only cared about their health and not their ability to work. Was this not making his own blood bank? Although it was time to get off work, Lil Zhou quickly prepared to publish the recruitment notice.


    Yin Xun finished her meal at Fang Yao¡¯s house and chatted with the butler for a while before going home.


    She had just donated blood, so she definitely could not exercise. She had to rest quietly for the next few days and try to eat as much delicious food as possible. Yin Xun could not help but feel secretly delighted when she thought about how she could eat as much as she wanted. Recently, Fang Yao had been very strict with their diet, so she could finally eat as much as she wanted now.


    ¡°You¡¯re back. How does it feel to have your blood drawn? Do you want to check your weight and see if you¡¯ve gotten lighter?¡±


    Yin Xun had just entered the villa when she heard Liu Ying¡¯s voice coming from upstairs. She looked up and saw Liu Ying talking to her while leaning against the railing with a face mask on.


    ¡°Why are you here?¡± Yin Xun was a little surprised. From the looks of it, Liu Ying was planning to spend the night here. Previously, Liu Ying had never stayed here to sleep. ¡°Are you hiding from your father and brother?¡±


    ¡°Who wants to hide from them?¡± Liu Ying snorted in disdain and said, ¡°It¡¯s all because of Fang Yao. You¡¯ve helped him so much, but he still has to stay with his mother at the hospital. He asked me to come over and take care of you. He¡¯s worried that something will happen to you after losing so much blood.¡±


    Yin Xun understood. Fang Yao had asked Liu Ying to come over.


    Liu Ying suddenly thought of something and slapped her thigh. ¡°By the way, 1 just checked online. You can¡¯t take a shower for twelve hours after donating blood, so you can only sleep like this tonight. I¡¯ll sleep in the guest room you prepared for me, so I won¡¯t be sleeping with you. Call me if you need anything.¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    Liu Ying¡¯s expression of disgust was about to overflow. Yin Xun was just not going to shower for one night.. How was that a big deal?

 Chapter 606 - Chapter 606: Does Not Like You

    Chapter 606: Does Not Like You


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Liu Yi tried to persuade Liu Ying but to no avail. He was so angry that he asked Liu Cheng for the address of Liu Ying¡¯s villa and directly came to look for her. However, Liu Ying was not at home, and he could not find her.


    ¡°Where did this brat go? She¡¯s not even at home. As soon as she leaves the house, she runs all over the place. She¡¯s such a cause for worry!¡± Liu Yi continued to call Liu Ying, but he still could not get through. Liu Cheng, who had followed him here, could not reach her either.


    ¡°Dad, I might know where Little Sis is now, but it doesn¡¯t seem very appropriate for us to go over.¡± Liu Cheng suddenly thought of something and said to Liu Yi.


    Liu Yi said angrily, ¡°What¡¯s inappropriate about it? Hurry up and tell me. Finding your sister is more important. Otherwise, if the other kids withdraw their investment tomorrow and your sister doesn¡¯t, won¡¯t that be embarrassing? Everyone will definitely mock me for not disciplining my children.¡±


    The thought that he would be mocked at the next board meeting made him furious.


    Liu Cheng pointed in the direction of Yin Xun¡¯s house and said, ¡°I think she could be at Yin Xun¡¯s house.¡±


    ¡°I see, then let¡¯s hurry over¡­¡± Liu Yi¡¯s eyes widened as he suddenly realized who Liu Cheng was talking about. ¡°Yin Cheng¡¯s eldest daughter, Yin Xun?¡±


    He suddenly remembered that Liu Ying had mentioned before that Liu Cheng was pursuing Yin Xun. No wonder Liu Ying knew so much about this. It turned out that Liu Ying and Yin Xun had become good neighbors, although the distance between their houses was a little far.


    The Liu family and the Yin family were business partners. They had also invested in Blue Fox. Now that they were going to Yin Xun¡¯s house to look for their daughter, their goal was still to get Liu Ying to withdraw her investment in Xintao. It certainly did not seem appropriate to propose a collaboration with Blue Fox in front of Yin Xun.


    Most importantly, the Liu family and the Yin family were still working together because of Donggang Modern City.


    ¡°It¡¯s indeed inappropriate,¡± Liu Yi said. ¡°But no matter how improper it is, we still have to go. We can¡¯t let Lil Ying go against us.¡±


    After saying that, he let Liu Cheng lead the way. Although Liu Cheng was reluctant, he did not dare to say anything else and quietly agreed.


    He said to Liu Yi, ¡°Dad, it¡¯s fine if you look for Lil Ying, but don¡¯t make a fool of yourself in front of Yin Xun.¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s the boss of Xintao now. She might not even like you.¡± Liu Yi was furious at this moment. Even his words were a little sharp.


    Liu Cheng pursed his lips and did not speak again.


    When Liu Yi and Liu Cheng went to find Yin Xun, Yin Xun was reading documents. This was her habit before she slept.


    As long as she read something about work before going to bed, she would be able to fall asleep very quickly, and the quality of her sleep would be especially good that night.


    When she heard the doorbell, Yin Xun saw from the screen that Liu Yi standing at the door.


    ¡°Liu Ying, your father is here to look for you.¡± Yin Xun came to the door of the guest room and knocked.


    Then, Liu Ying¡¯s broken voice came from inside. ¡°All¡­ Why is he so annoying? It¡¯s one thing if he doesn¡¯t let me work and study at home, but he even wants to interfere when I¡¯m outside. I¡¯m not going out. Help me settle it. I¡¯ll treat you to a meal next time.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and agreed. ¡°Sure.¡±


    After she opened the door, Yin Xun leaned against the door frame and blocked the entrance.


    Although Liu Yi wanted to walk inside, he was too embarrassed to speak when he saw Yin Xun like this.


    He craned his neck and peered inside. At the same time, he asked Yin Xun, ¡°Lil Xun, is our girl, Liu Ying, with you?¡±


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No, it¡¯s just me here. Uncle Liu, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s her car, right?¡± Liu Cheng, who was standing behind, stepped forward and pointed at the sports car in the courtyard.


    Seeing Yin Xun shake her head, he barked, ¡°Liu Ying, it¡¯s useless for you to hide. Dad already knows that you¡¯re here. Hurry up and come out. Don¡¯t keep disturbing Yin Xun. Don¡¯t you feel embarrassed?¡±


    Liu Ying was also a hot-tempered person. When she heard Liu Cheng call her out, she actually rushed out of the room.


    ¡°Liu Cheng, how can you have the cheek to criticize me?! Yin Xun doesn¡¯t like you at all, and you¡¯re still pestering him. Who¡¯s more annoying?¡± Liu Ying cursed and walked quickly to the door.


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    She had a bad feeling. Surely this family would not fight at her house, right?


    She made way for Liu Ying, who was rushing over, and silently took a few steps back.


    ¡°Lil Ying, don¡¯t keep disturbing Lil Xun. Come home with me. I have something to talk to you about.¡± Liu Yi¡¯s expression finally softened when he saw Liu Ying. He reached out to pull Liu Ying over.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Ying bluntly spoke first. ¡°Dad, I know why you¡¯re looking for me. Didn¡¯t you just tell me not to invest in Xintao? It¡¯s your business if you want to work with Blue Fox. But it¡¯s my business if I want to work with Yin Xun. I¡¯ve already grown up.. Can you not try to control me?¡±

    As soon as she said this, the scene immediately fell silent. Liu Yi and Liu Cheng looked at each other awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.


    They looked at Yin Xun together, only to see Yin Xun looking at them with a faint smile. Her smile was formal, as if saying that she did not mind.


    ¡°You brat, what are you talking about? Come home with me for now.¡± Liu Yi did not want to speak in front of Yin Xun. He tried to pull Liu Ying again, but Liu Ying evaded him again.


    ¡°I¡¯m not going back with you.¡± Liu Ying frowned and said, ¡°Dad, the purpose of our business is to make money, not to do charity. It¡¯s obvious who has the upper hand in the market now. There are only two shopping platforms now. Xintao is number one. 1 think you know better than me how far away Blue Fox is from Xintao. What kind of idiot would not withdraw from the last place in the industry but force a number one in the investment market to withdraw their investment?¡±


    As soon as she said this, Liu Cheng and Liu Yi¡¯s expressions changed.


    Liu Yi raised his hand and was about to hit Liu Ying while he snarled, ¡°Stupid girl, how dare you insult your father indirectly!¡±


    Liu Ying hurriedly hid behind Yin Xun and Liu Yi stopped. Even if he was an elder, he could not hit Yin Xun.


    Everyone knew that Yin Xun was Yin Cheng¡¯s precious daughter. If he touched her, even if it was just a light touch, Yin Cheng would probably fight him to the death.


    Yin Xun had no intention of dodging. She remained calm as if all of this had nothing to do with her.


    Although this was Liu Ying¡¯s family matter and she could not interfere, this was still her home. She had the right to stand here and listen to their argument.


    After seeing that Liu Yi was getting angrier, Liu Ying was still unwilling to give up. She said, ¡°Look, 1 didn¡¯t specify who it was. 1 just analyzed the situation and you immediately knew that it was you, so you must be thinking the same thing.¡±


    Liu Yi and Liu Ying did not give in and stood at the entrance of Yin Xun¡¯s house.


    Looking at the two of them arguing, Liu Cheng suddenly spoke.


    ¡°Dad, Lil Sister makes sense. Why don¡¯t we go back first?¡± It was impossible to tell whether Liu Cheng felt that it was too awkward to discuss this in front of Yin Xun or if he really felt that Liu Ying made sense. Whatever the case, he took the initiative to pull Liu Yi away.


    Liu Yi looked deeply at Yin Xun and Liu Ying. He frowned and was silent for a moment. He knew that it was not good to continue causing trouble in Yin Xun¡¯s house. He could not go so far as to kidnap Liu Ying.


    He had no choice but to teach Liu Ying a lesson in the future.


    ¡°You¡¯ve really screwed me over!¡± Liu Yi pointed at Liu Ying. He was so angry that his hands were trembling.


    The child was disobedient and even ran over to find someone else to protect her. What could he do? He could not scold or hit her, so he could only do this.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Liu Yi agreed with Liu Cheng and turned to leave.


    ¡°Uncle Liu, I know what you¡¯re thinking,¡± Yin Xun suddenly said. When Liu Yi heard Yin Xun call him, he stopped and turned around.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Back then, we had some unhappy interactions because of Liu Ying¡¯s matter, which led to some problems with our subsequent cooperation. You¡¯ve always been dissatisfied with my family because of this matter. However, we¡¯re businessmen. Our ultimate goal is money. Think about it from our perspective. If you were in this situation, would you have done the same?¡±


    Liu Yi nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Lil Ying was at fault for the materials incident. We should compensate for that. However, that¡¯s all in the past. You¡¯re bringing it up now because you want me to agree to Lil Ying investing in Xintao?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ve misunderstood. 1 don¡¯t mean for you to invest now. What 1 mean is, since there¡¯s no real animosity between us, if you don¡¯t want to continue investing in Blue Fox in the future, you can switch to Xintao. 1¡¯11 welcome you.¡± Yin Xun looked at Liu Yi with a faint smile on her lips.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, that day won¡¯t come.¡± Liu Yi¡¯s expression changed slightly. He glared at Yin Xun and did not say anything else. He promptly pulled Liu Cheng away.


    After the two of them were far away from Yin Xun¡¯s villa, Liu Cheng asked Liu Yi in confusion, ¡°Dad, why do seem so angry all of a sudden?¡±


    Liu Yi said angrily, ¡°You¡¯re a grown man, and I¡¯ve nurtured you as my successor. Why aren¡¯t you even as smart as that little girl Yin Xun? Don¡¯t you understand what she just said?¡±


    Seeing Liu Cheng shake his head in confusion, Liu Yi said resentfully, ¡°She just said that it was a wrong decision for us to invest in Blue Fox. In the future, if we fail with Blue Fox, she told us to look for her! She¡¯s just a little girl, but she actually dares to mock me like this. 1 swear that I¡¯ll definitely defeat Xintao.. Even if something bad happens, I¡¯ll never cooperate with her!¡±

    Chapter 608: Kidnapped By Their Child


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Yin Xun saw Liu Yi and his son leave, she turned around and returned to the house with Liu Ying.


    ¡°Yin Xun, you¡¯re amazing at infuriating people. Just based on what you said to my father just now, my father will probably be so angry that he won¡¯t even eat dinner when he gets back.¡± Liu Ying looked at Yin Xun with admiration.


    The next second, she suddenly looked enlightened and then looked regretful. ¡°But it¡¯s already so late. Maybe he came over after dinner.¡±


    ¡°You seem to be very happy to see your father angry.¡± Yin Xun glanced at Liu Ying.


    Liu Ying waved her hand and said, ¡°It¡¯s not that much. I just think that what happened today will leave a deep impression on my father. My brother only listens to him and doesn¡¯t have subjective opinions. My father favors boys over girls a lot. If i win against my brother in the end, won¡¯t it make a huge turnaround in my father¡¯s heart?¡±


    This seemed to make sense. Yin Xun nodded.


    Liu Ying reached out and patted Yin Xun¡¯s shoulder twice. She spoke in the tone of an elder talking to a junior, ¡°Little Xun, this time, your friend¡¯s life depends on you alone. Don¡¯t disappoint me.¡±


    Yin Xun was amused by her expression.


    This incident was like a small interlude to her. Yin Xun and Liu Ying did not take it to heart.


    The two of them said goodnight to each other. Yin Xun returned to her room and prepared to sleep.


    Just as she lay down on the bed, her phone rang.


    Yin Xun hesitated for a few seconds before getting up to get his phone. When she turned it on, she saw a message from Fang Yao, [How do you feel?]


    Yin Xun replied, [It¡¯s normal so far.]


    As soon as she sent the message, a call came through. Fang Yao¡¯s gentle voice sounded on the phone. ¡°It¡¯s already so late. Why aren¡¯t you asleep yet?¡±


    ¡°I was just about to sleep when I heard some news. I got up to take a look.¡± Yin Xun took her phone and lay back on the bed.


    ¡°Okay, then go back to sleep. Don¡¯t stay up late. Have a good rest,¡± Fang Yao said. ¡°By the way, my mother is awake. She asked me to thank you on her behalf.¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright. It¡¯s nothing.¡±


    ¡°She said that she would thank you personally after she was discharged,¡± Fang Yao continued.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Yin Xun agreed without hesitation.


    She was more curious about how Lin Chan would thank her.


    Logically speaking, for someone of Lin Chan¡¯s status to be generous, the most direct way to thank someone was to give them money. Would she directly invest more money with her? If she wanted to use her money to thank her, Yin Xun would definitely not refuse.


    Fang Yao called her not only to ask about her health, but also to thank Yin Xun on behalf of Lin Chan. Since he had already delivered the message, he gave Yin Xun a few more instructions before hanging up.


    That night, Yin Xun and Liu Ying rested in peace. Liu Yi and the other investors did not sleep well that night. The households were in chaos, and the children received the love and care of their fathers.


    The next day, Blue Fox held another video conference.


    At the beginning of the meeting, no one mentioned their children¡¯s investments. They all changed the subject. It was not until Le An asked them one by one that it was revealed that they failed.


    Chen Jue cursed, ¡°That little brat of mine never dared to argue against me in the past. This time, no matter how I beat him up, he refused to give up. Even the mop handle broke. That brat is like a stubborn donkey.¡±


    The other families were the same. Their children were clearly obedient in the past, but this time, it was as if they were possessed.


    Le An was puzzled. ¡°What benefits did Yin Xun promise them? Yesterday, after communicating with his child, one of our investors actually decided to withdraw his investment from us and invest in Xintao.¡±


    The others were speechless.


    Ridiculous, this was too ridiculous. A father was actually kidnapped by his own child. This was too much of a blow to their morale.


    ¡°Dear directors, this is actually not too important. The most important thing now is to think of a way to deal with the biggest investor behind Xintao¡ªFang Yao.¡± Le An looked at the investors who were complaining about their children and quickly brought the topic back around.


    All their faces were filled with anger. Le An was afraid that they would hang up on him on impulse and start hitting the children again.


    Chen Jue said with a gloomy face, ¡°The investment background is not a problem. We can think of a way to pull him to our side. I heard that Fang Yao values benefits the most. As long as the conditions we offer are tempting enough, he will definitely come.¡±


    Zhao Xian objected to Chen Jue¡¯s suggestion. ¡°Blue Fox has enough investors now. With Fang Yao¡¯s status and financial resources, he will definitely become the biggest investor and have the greatest say in the company.. If that happens, will we even have a say anymore?¡±

 Chapter 609 - Chapter 609: Got Tricked

    Chapter 609: Got Tricked


    Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation     Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You can¡¯t say that,¡± Liu Yi interrupted him. ¡°If Fang Yao can really invest in Blue Fox, it will be the most beneficial for us. With his financial support, do we still have to be afraid of not being able to win against Xintao? When the time comes, we can even develop other businesses like Xintao did and expand the company.¡±


    Apart from Zhao Xian, everyone else agreed with Liu Yi.


    The minority followed the majority. In the end, they followed Chen Jue¡¯s suggestion. However, there was another problem. Fang Yao was usually elusive, and not many people could contact him. How could they invite him?


    They all knew that Si Fan had tried to ask Fang Yao for help back then, but after searching for so long, he had not even gotten a glimpse of him. They did not know what method Yin Xun had used to get close to Fang Yao.


    Just as they were at a loss, Zhao Xian said, ¡°Old Liu, has your daughter moved out? She hasn¡¯t been home recently.¡±


    Liu Yi replied offhandedly, ¡°That¡¯s right. The little girl has grown up and is starting to get ideas.¡±


    ¡°As far as I know, she seems to have bought a house in a suburban villa, and Fang Yao is also in that area. They¡¯re not far away. Liu Ying and Yin Xun are working together, and Yin Xun and Fang Yao are working together, so Liu Ying might know Fang Yao too. How about this? I¡¯ll leave the task of communicating with Fang Yao to you. Didn¡¯t you agree with this suggestion? You have to show some sincerity,¡± Zhao Xian said slowly, not giving Liu Yi any room to refuse.


    When the others heard that Liu Ying and Fang Yao lived in the same neighborhood, they immediately agreed with Zhao Xian¡¯s suggestion to let Liu Yi handle this matter.


    Le An said, ¡°Director Liu, this is for the benefit of all of us, so we will have to trouble you.¡±


    Only then did Liu Yi realize that he had been tricked. Since they already knew that Liu Ying and Fang Yao lived close together, why did they beat around the bush to get him to agree? Why did they not just say it from the start?


    These people were waiting for him to agree to this suggestion before saying it. It was too¡­ too much.


    Since he had already said this much, Liu Yi had no choice but to agree. ¡°1 can only promise to try. Whether it succeeds or not is none of my business. 1 can¡¯t possibly contact Fang Yao and have to handle the final negotiations by myself, right?¡±


    Le An smiled and said, ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. As long as you can ask Fang Yao to meet us, 1¡¯11 talk to him personally. I guarantee that it will succeed in the end.¡±


    After the meeting ended, Liu Yi looked at the black screen of the computer and felt worried.


    When he went to look for Liu Ying last night, Liu Ying¡¯s attitude was already very obvious. She was determined to help Yin Xun, so she would definitely not help him contact Fang Yao. Since that was the case, he could only look for Liu Cheng.


    Liu Yi told Liu Cheng about the contents of the meeting. In the end, he said expectantly, ¡°Lil Cheng, you¡¯re usually the closest to your sister. Back then, your sister asked you to help her with the project. You agreed to such a big matter and almost caused disaster for our family. This time, I need you to ask your sister for a favor.¡±


    ¡°How can a father threaten his own child like this?¡± Liu Cheng complained silently. He did not dare to tell Liu Yi this directly, so he could only agree to look for Liu Ying.


    Before he went to look for Liu Ying, he first went to the Fang Corporation to try his luck. As expected, he was not able to see Fang Yao at all. Only then did he go to the villa area to look for Liu Ying, hoping that she would spare him some respect.


    However, when he reached the entrance of the neighborhood, he was stopped by the security guard before he could enter.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, sir. A homeowner specially reminded us not to let you in. If there¡¯s anything, just call her.¡± The security guard¡¯s tone was cold and emotionless.


    No matter how Liu Cheng tried to persuade the guard or to prove that he was Liu Ying¡¯s biological brother, the security guard ignored him and refused to let him in.


    He had no choice but to wait for Liu Ying to pass by the entrance


    He waited and waited until his legs were about to go sore. Liu Ying had yet to appear and he could not get through to her on the phone.


    When he first left the house, Liu Yi even threatened him that he was not allowed to go home if he could not complete the mission. At this moment, he felt like a pitiful child who had been chased out of the house and was homeless.


    After waiting for half a day, Liu Cheng finally saw Liu Ying¡¯s figure, but Liu Ying did not pay attention to him. She pretended not to know him and directly entered the neighborhood.


    Liu Cheng tried to chase after him, but he was stopped by the security guard. ¡°Sir, if you insist on breaking in, we have the right to send you to the police station.¡±


    Faced with the threat of the security guard, Liu Cheng finally gave up on the idea of barging in. He sat at the entrance of the district and looked up at the sky. At this moment, it was sunny and there were no dark clouds at all. The sun shone down directly, and the air was so hot that the air a little distorted.


    Liu Cheng pondered for a long time and suddenly thought of Qu Lu..

 Chapter 610 - Chapter 610: Inviting Fang Yao

    Chapter 610: Inviting Fang Yao


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The other night, Liu Cheng had received a message from Qu Lu. However, he had promised Liu Ying that he would not continue to pester Yin Xun, so he ignored her.


    Now that he had chosen to deal with Yin Xun and Fang Yao, he thought he could join forces with Qu Lu.


    Qu Lu could enter that residential area whenever she wanted. Perhaps she would even know where Fang Yao¡¯s house was. After all, the Fang family and the Qu family were very familiar with each other¡­


    ¡°Fang Family, Qu Family, Fang Yao, Qu Lu¡­¡± Liu Cheng muttered.


    Suddenly, he thought of something and took out his phone to search for information about the Qu family and the Fang family. After searching for a while, he finally learned that Qu Lu¡¯s fiance was Fang Yao!


    In other words, Fang Yao was the person who was so intimate with Yin Xun that day.


    He knew where Fang Yao¡¯s house was now. He did not need Liu Ying¡¯s help to find it. He looked up at the security guard who was staring at him like he was a thief. The glimmer of hope that had just risen in his heart was extinguished again.


    He could not even get past the gates now, let alone look for Fang Yao.


    ¡°You already have a fiancee, yet you¡¯re still so close to the girl that¡¯s fancied by others. How immoral.¡± Liu Cheng cursed. However, when he thought about how he could get Qu Lu¡¯s help, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up into a smile.


    It just so happened that Qu Lu disliked Yin Xun. This way, she would definitely help him rope in Fang Yao. With Qu Lu¡¯s help, he would definitely succeed.


    Thinking of this, Liu Cheng could already imagine his success in advance.


    He could not help but take out his phone and send a message to Liu Ying: [I¡¯ve thought of who to ask to help me. Just wait and cry.]


    After smugly sending Liu Ying a message, Liu Cheng immediately contacted Qu Lu. The call was quickly picked up, and Qu Lu¡¯s voice came from the other end. It was the same voice he had heard at Fang Yao¡¯s house. It was indeed her.


    Back then, the two of them had exchanged contact information because they had the same goal. Thus, Liu Cheng revealed his thoughts to Qu Lu without any warning.


    ¡°Well, I¡¯ve been busy recently, so I need to reply to you later. Wait for my news.¡± Qu Lu hung up the phone.


    A short while later, Qu Lu replied to Liu Cheng, ¡°Didn¡¯t you guys want to meet Fang Yao? Fang Yao says he¡¯ll agree. Your party can decide the location.¡±


    ¡°Then, about Fang Yao¡¯s contact information¡­¡± Afraid that something would go wrong, Liu Cheng asked.


    Qu Lu said grumpily, ¡°It¡¯s already good enough that 1 can help you contact him. I advise you not to push your luck.¡±


    Liu Cheng did not dare to say anything else, afraid that the rare opportunity would be ruined.


    Before the call was hung up, Qu Lu only made one request for this matter¡ªLiu Cheng could not tell anyone that she had helped him. Liu Cheng quickly agreed.


    Liu Cheng achieved great results in a short time, shocking Liu Yi. He did not expect Liu Cheng to really get a meeting with Fang Yao.


    ¡°Good boy, you¡¯re indeed my son. You¡¯re so capable. You¡¯re much better than your sister. As expected, girls don¡¯t follow their family¡¯s mindset when they grow up. Sigh¡­¡± After Liu Yi praised Liu Cheng, he immediately told Le An the news.


    Le An did not have Fang Yao¡¯s contact information, so he could only communicate with Liu Yi.


    When he found out that Fang Yao had asked them to choose a meeting place, he first checked the Yin Corporation¡¯s off-duty time. Although the president did not need to go to and from work according to the schedule, he wanted to leave a good impression on Fang Yao.


    After confirming the time and booking the best hotel in the city, Liu Yi planned to tell Fang Yao everything was ready. Liu Yi passed the message to Liu Cheng, who passed the message to Qu Lu. In the end, Fang Yao agreed.


    Two days later, the appointed time arrived. Le An was waiting for Fang Yao in the hotel early in the morning. Fang Yao was indeed a punctual person. He arrived just in time.


    ¡°President Fang, I¡¯ve heard so much about you. I¡¯ve long heard that you¡¯re a young and promising individual. Now that I¡¯ve seen you today, it seems the rumors are true.¡± Le An wanted to shake Fang Yao¡¯s hand, but Fang Yao pretended not to see his extended hand and walked straight to the seat he thought was comfortable and sat down.


    When Le An saw this, his face stiffened for a moment, but he quickly recovered his smile.


    Fang Yao said calmly, ¡°President Le, 1 heard that you¡¯ve been wanting to treat me to a meal. Don¡¯t tell me you have something else happening now?¡±


    Le An quickly said, ¡°No, I just want to treat you to a meal. 1 took the liberty to be friends with you. While I¡¯m at it¡­¡± Le An looked at Fang Yao and smiled. ¡°I also want to talk to you about an investment issue. I heard that you seem to have the intention to invest recently. 1 wonder, what do you think of our Blue Fox?¡±


    Fang Yao smiled. ¡°Compared to Xintao, Blue Fox still has a lot of room for improvement. The company still has a bright future ahead.¡±


    In other words, Blue Fox was far inferior to Xintao right now, and it would be very difficult to catch up..

 Chapter 611 - Chapter 611: Plan To Get Rid Of Yin Xun

    Chapter 611: Plan To Get Rid Of Yin Xun


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Le An smiled awkwardly. He understood the meaning behind Fang Yao¡¯s words. He did not mention anything about the investment. In fact, that was not his plan.


    However, when he thought of the gap between Blue Fox and Xintao, he had to do something even if he had to be thick-skinned.


    After saying a bunch of polite words, he finally got to the point.


    ¡°President Fang, we¡¯ve done some research on Xintao¡¯s development. Actually, the reason why Xintao surpassed Blue Fox is mainly because of your investment. Xintao¡¯s current results are all based on burning money. Compared to Xintao, Blue Fox is still almost on the same level despite being in such a disadvantageous situation. Therefore, you should be able to judge our abilities, right?¡± Le An raised his glass and wanted to toast with Fang Yao.


    However, Fang Yao had no intention of raising his glass. Instead, he looked at Le An quietly for a few seconds before he slowly said, ¡°So, according to President Le, you want me to withdraw my investment from Xintao and invest in Blue Fox?¡±


    Le An smiled and said, ¡°Well, that would be best if it¡¯s possible. We can discuss whatever requests you have. Although I don¡¯t know what method Yin Xun used to get you to invest in Xintao, 1 can guarantee that it won¡¯t be long before our Blue Fox will definitely surpass Xintao. Yin Xun is just a single woman after all. She doesn¡¯t have any shrewdness. It¡¯s simply a waste of your financial resources.


    ¡°I know that you usually don¡¯t care about Xintao¡¯s matters as you¡¯re only an investor, but do you know that Yin Xun is basically a hands-off manager? She doesn¡¯t do anything and leaves everything to her employees. To be honest, we¡¯re planning to poach the capable managers from Xintao. Once they leave, Yin Xun won¡¯t have any helpers. I guarantee that as long as you invest in our Blue Fox¡­¡±


    ¡°You want to poach Xintao¡¯s employees?¡± Le An had been chattering non-stop when Fang Yao interrupted him.


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± After Le An finished speaking, he felt that it might not have been good to say it so directly. He smiled and explained, ¡°I know it¡¯s not very nice to do this, but Yin Xun forced us to do this. We also want to develop peacefully. Originally, as long as everyone did their own thing, there would not be problems. However, Yin Xun insisted on breaking the market rules and kept playing cheap tricks.¡±


    Fang Yao asked indifferently, ¡°So from Blue Fox¡¯s perspective, you can¡¯t innovate when doing business?¡±


    Le An quickly waved his hand to deny it. ¡°Of course not. It¡¯s just that we¡¯re the only two online purchasing companies in the market at the moment, so we should discuss any drastic changes. We can¡¯t let one party suddenly change so much. Isn¡¯t this like throwing Blue Fox over a fire?¡±


    ¡°As far as 1 know, Yin Xun mentioned that she wanted to compete fairly with you, but you seemed to have rejected her offer,¡± Fang Yao said.


    Le An was stunned for a moment and did not know what to say. Fang Yao just sat there quietly and waited for him to speak.


    After a while, Le An thought of what to say. ¡°President Fang, you¡¯re only investing to earn money. Why should you share the money you earn with others? As long as you invest in Blue Fox, we can have Xintao and Yin Xun¡­¡±


    Le An made a neck-cutting gesture, hinting that he would get rid of Yin Xun.


    Fang Yao¡¯s eyes darkened. He did not expect Le An to be so bold as to say this out loud in front of him.


    ¡°So you¡¯re treating me to a meal just to discuss business with me. I¡¯m sorry, but it looks like 1 won¡¯t be able to eat this meal,¡± Fang Yao said as he stood up to leave.


    ¡°President Fang, please give me a chance. When you go back, think about it carefully. If you agree, you can call me at any time. If you don¡¯t, I will still treat you as a friend. But this time, I sincerely want to treat you to a meal. Please spare me some face.¡± Le An smiled apologetically.


    Fang Yao had no intention of sitting down. Instead, he asked Le An, ¡°You just said that you¡¯re curious why I invested in Yin Xun.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Le An looked at Fang Yao expectantly.


    A faint smile appeared on Fang Yao¡¯s cold face. He slowly said, ¡°How can you woo a girl if you don¡¯t spend some money on her and show some sincerity?¡±


    Le An felt as if he had been struck by lightning. It took him a few seconds to realize what Fang Yao meant. He seemed to have heard something incredible.


    Le An still wanted to fight for the opportunity. ¡°In that case, you should invest in our Blue Fox. This way, even if Xintao closes down in the future, you won¡¯t lose much..¡±

 Chapter 612 - Chapter 612: This Is My Familys Hotel

    Chapter 612: This Is My Family¡¯s Hotel


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Xintao won¡¯t shut down.¡± Fang Yao glanced at him indifferently. ¡°Also, do I look like someone who lacks money?¡±


    After saying that, as if he felt that it was not enough, he showed some emotion as he added, ¡°As long as Yin Xun is happy, I¡¯m willing to invest all my assets.¡±


    This time, Fang Yao did not wait for Le An¡¯s reaction. He opened the door and left.


    Le An stood rooted to the ground as if he had been struck by lightning. For a long time, he did not come back to his senses. His mind kept replaying what Fang Yao had just said. It was only when he heard the door close that he came back to his senses and hurriedly chased after him to send him off.


    However, just as he reached the hall, he saw Yin Xun and two women walking in while chatting and laughing.


    Le An and Yin Xun had met before. Le An was afraid of being recognized, so he quickly lowered his head and covered his face. It would be awkward if Yin Xun found out that he secretly tried to rope Fang Yao in.


    Unexpectedly, Fang Yao suddenly said goodbye to him, seemingly on purpose. ¡°Mr. Le An, there¡¯s no need to send me off.¡±


    Yin Xun originally had her back facing the two of them, but when she heard this name, she quickly turned around and saw Fang Yao and Le An.


    When Le An saw this, he immediately turned around, hoping that Yin Xun did not see him.


    However, it was already too late. Yin Xun looked at him and said with a faint smile, ¡°President Le, what a coincidence. I didn¡¯t expect us to meet here. And Fang Yao too, you guys are¡­¡± As she spoke, she revealed a look of understanding. ¡°President Le, don¡¯t tell me you failed to take the delivery companies from me and planned to snatch away my investor?¡±


    Le An waved his hand awkwardly. ¡°No, I just admire Fang Yao and want to have a meal with him to become friends.¡±


    ¡°Is that so?¡± Yin Xun revealed a look of disbelief. ¡°1 haven¡¯t forgotten the last time you tried to send someone to buy Lechang and cut off my lifeline.¡±


    If it were anyone else, Yin Xun might not have been so disrespectful. However, the other party was Blue Fox¡¯s representative. Blue Fox had tried to trip her up over and over again. Naturally, she did not need to be polite to their people. She directly told them what had happened in the past.


    Those who could come to such a five-star hotel were all of extraordinary status. When the people around heard the words ¡°Blue Fox¡± and ¡°Xintao¡±, they slowed down and secretly looked over.


    Recently, the two companies, Blue Fox and Xintao, have been having a fierce fight. Almost everyone realized that the leaders of the two companies were there. There seemed to be something else going on. Of course, they had to watch the commotion.


    Le An pretended that he did not understand Yin Xun¡¯s words, and he quickly changed the topic. He asked, ¡°Oh right, President Yin, why are you here? Are you here to discuss business?¡±


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°This is my family¡¯s hotel. I¡¯m just here to check on things.¡±


    Le An was speechless.


    He knew that the Yin family was in the construction industry, but he did not expect them to have their own hotel. He tried to take down Yin Xun, but he actually chose Yin Xun¡¯s family business to do it. He was instantly embarrassed.


    Fang Yao¡¯s lips curled up slightly. He seemed to be in a good mood. He asked Yin Xun, ¡°What do you want to eat tonight?¡±


    Yin Xun tilted her head slightly and thought for a moment, then said, ¡°Anything, as long as you don¡¯t make pork liver again.¡±


    She could only bear to eat this kind of dish once in a while, but Fang Yao insisted that she eat it every meal because she recently donated blood. He said that it was very effective if she was lacking blood.


    Even the butler was extremely supportive of Fang Yao¡¯s idea and insisted that she eat lots of pig liver. She was really a little afraid of it now.


    ¡°This is a must-have dish. You can order anything else.¡± Fang Yao had no intention of letting her go.


    Yin Xun was instantly discouraged and said dejectedly, ¡°Then do whatever you want¡­¡±


    Fang Yao was in a great mood. He smiled and said, ¡°Alright.¡±


    Seeing the interaction between these two people, Le An was so shocked that his jaw dropped open. What was going on? Why were Fang Yao and Yin Xun this familiar with each other?


    The information he received stated that Fang Yao invested in Xintao, but the man never went to Xintao¡¯s office or generally showed concern for it. Logically speaking, Fang Yao and Yin Xun did not have any interactions at all. What was going on now?


    He thought about what Fang Yao had just said about wooing Yin Xun. Could it be that it was not just an excuse to not invest in Blue Fox, but was actually true?


    Since the two of them were so close, it was even more impossible for him to poach Fang Yao over.


    When he bid farewell to Fang Yao and the others, Le An¡¯s mind was in a daze. He did not expect his plan to fail.


    Not only did the negotiations fail, but the situation was very awkward. Le An went back and called an emergency meeting to continue discussing how to deal with Xintao.


    ¡°Dear directors, our strategy against Xintao has failed again. What other suggestions do you have?¡± Le An thought of Fang Yao¡¯s words and complained, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Fang Yao and Yin Xun to be so close in private. Fang Yao said that he wanted to woo Yin Xun and spent a lot of money just to win over a pretty girl. I originally thought that Fang Yao was a rational person, but I didn¡¯t expect him to be so lecherous..¡±

 Chapter 613 - Chapter 613: Spoiling Her Reputation

    Chapter 613: Spoiling Her Reputation


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Chen Jue was a little surprised. ¡°Are they really close?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s abnormal. At first, I thought Fang Yao was making up an excuse to not invest in us. 1 didn¡¯t expect him to really be together with Yin Xun,¡± Le An said with a cold snort.


    Hearing Le An¡¯s words, Liu Yi was stunned for a moment. ¡°That¡¯s not right. 1 remember that Fang Yao has a fiancee.¡±


    ¡°Fiancee? Where did you get this information?¡± Chen Jue quickly asked.


    Liu Yi thought for a moment and said, ¡°My son contacted him through Fang Yao¡¯s fiancee. 1 think her name is Qu Lu.¡±


    ¡°Qu Lu?¡± Chen Jue pondered. ¡°The Qu Family and the Fang Family are long-time friends. Since she¡¯s the eldest daughter of the Qu Family, that would make sense. Fang Yao has a girlfriend, but he¡¯s still getting intimate with Yin Xun.¡±


    Then, Chen Jue¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°It looks like we learned something incredible. In that case, we have a way to deal with Yin Xun!¡±


    Le An looked at Chen Jue in confusion. ¡°Chairman Chen, you mean¡­¡±


    ¡°With Fang Yao¡¯s financial support, we won¡¯t gain anything by fighting head-on with Xintao. Since that¡¯s the case, we can take advantage of the fact that Xintao hasn¡¯t completely stabilized yet and launch a wave of public opinion attacks. First, we can pin the story of the mistress ruining other people¡¯s relationships. You have to know that society hates this type of person the most.¡±


    Chen Jue sneered and continued, ¡°Let¡¯s ruin Yin Xun¡¯s reputation first. Then, we¡¯ll think of a way to deal with Lechang and Xintao Express. Le An, after the meeting is over, you should hire a group of paid posters online to hype up public opinion. First, label Yin Xun as a mistress. Then, create some public opinion for Xintao Express and ruin their reputation!¡±


    Liu Cheng had been watching the meeting from the side. When he heard that Chen Jue wanted to deal with Yin Xun like this, he did not care if it was appropriate for him to interrupt and said, ¡°Uncle Chen, this is no good. No matter how much hatred we have with Yin Xun, it¡¯s just a business matter. Let¡¯s not develop it into personal attacks, right? Besides, Yin Xun is just a girl. This public opinion attack is too ruthless¡­¡±


    Everyone knew that Liu Yi had always asked Liu Cheng to listen by the side during the meetings. The father and son invested together, so no one said anything about this.


    However, Liu Cheng usually never took the initiative to speak. No one expected him to speak up for Yin Xun this time.


    Chen Jue snorted and said disdainfully, ¡°What do you know, kid? Don¡¯t you know that the business world is like a battlefield? In the end, the winner is the hero, and the loser is the lowly dog. No matter what method you use, everyone only cares about the outcome.¡±


    ¡°But it¡¯s not good for us to treat a woman like this! Don¡¯t you usually look down on women who try to seize power? But this is worse than that. Isn¡¯t it¡­¡±


    Liu Cheng suddenly stopped talking. He must have been stopped by Liu Yi.


    Hearing that there was no more sound from the other end, Chen Jue continued, ¡°Old Liu, with your son¡¯s naive kindness, how is he going to take over your company in the future? He¡¯s so shallow. Be careful that your family business doesn¡¯t get ruined in his hands in the future.¡±


    Liu Yi did not like hearing this and retorted, ¡°My son is just an upright person. At least he knows not to do anything harmful. As for you, you¡¯re always thinking of such crooked ideas. Aren¡¯t you afraid that you¡¯ll lead your son astray?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m doing something harmful? I¡¯m doing this for our mutual benefit! Since you don¡¯t like this method, tell me, what should we do?¡±


    Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Le An quickly interrupted them. ¡°Directors, don¡¯t argue first. The most important problem now is how to deal with Xintao. We can¡¯t always be suppressed by them. The most important thing is that Xintao¡¯s boss is a young woman. It¡¯s embarrassing just talking about it.¡±


    ¡°Although it¡¯s a little immoral to engage in a public opinion battle, these are actually very common methods. It feels quite sound. We can give it a try.¡± Zhao Xian, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke.


    ¡°Look at those people in the entertainment industry. The fastest and simplest way to get rid of their rivals is to spread rumors. Besides, we¡¯re not spreading rumors out of thin air. Didn¡¯t Old Liu say that Fang Yao has a fiancee, and she¡¯s the child of the Qu family? When Le An chatted with him, Fang Yao admitted that his relationship with Yin Xun was improper. We¡¯re just going to make this matter public and let everyone judge.. How can this be called spreading false rumors?¡±

    ¡°That¡¯s right. We¡¯re just porters for the truth. As for the express delivery, if they don¡¯t have any problems, we can help them make some. That way, everything we say will be true,¡± Chen Jue said proudly. ¡°When Yin Xun¡¯s image becomes bad, we¡¯ll drag their delivery system into the water. When Xintao is surrounded by negative news, everyone¡¯s trust in Xintao will be gone. Naturally, no one will go to Xintao to buy things.¡±


    Le An frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he asked, ¡°However, we have to pay attention to evidence. How can we prove that Yin Xun destroyed other people¡¯s relationships?¡±


    Chen Jue said in a deep voice, ¡°That¡¯s simple. Just find a few people to follow Yin Xun. Take some photos. There will definitely be evidence.¡±


    The others all agreed to this method, but who would be the one to do it¡­


    This time, Xu Lin did not say a word throughout the entire process. Firstly, he knew he could not interrupt. His words were insignificant, and these people had never listened to his opinion. Secondly, he knew that if he attracted the attention of others, they would definitely push everything onto him.


    After all, among these people, he was the only ordinary worker. A small arm could not win against a leg.


    However, no matter how hard he tried to reduce his presence, he was still noticed. Everyone had been discussing and felt that it was most appropriate to leave this matter to Xu Lin.


    Xu Lin could not refuse and could only agree quietly. Although he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to say it out loud. He had no choice. He would do whatever the leader asked him to do.


    However, after exchanging blows with Yin Xun during this period of time, he could not help but be slightly suspicious. Was this sort of lowly method really useful?


    When he heard Le An speak just now, he felt that something was wrong. How could things be so coincidental? He had just finished discussing things with Fang Yao when Yin Xun showed up. Could it be that these two really didn¡¯t arrange it?


    He was worried that he would fall into a trap, so he quickly thought about it. Just as the investors were about to hang up the video, he quickly said, ¡°Directors, don¡¯t hang up yet. 1 have an idea. How about everyone listen to it?¡±


    ¡°Speak,¡± Chen Jue said in a deep voice.


    Xu Lin organized his words in his mind and said, ¡°Actually, we don¡¯t have to use this method to solve the problem. Didn¡¯t Xintao¡¯s live broadcast a few days ago sell goods very well? We should also give it a try. Since our current event isn¡¯t doing well now, we might as well cancel it and change to another method.¡±


    ¡°Do you still need to ask us about something like this? Why can¡¯t you do it directly?¡± Chen Jue said angrily, ¡°Besides, you can still find ghostwriters while doing that. We¡¯re all very busy here. Don¡¯t look for us if there¡¯s nothing especially important next time.¡±


    With that, they hung up.


    Le An let out a long sigh. ¡°Evil capitalists. All they know is how to squeeze the workers dry.¡±


    Although he was unhappy, he could only do as everyone asked.


    Soon, many photos of Yin Xun and Fang Yao together suddenly appeared on the Internet. Perhaps because no one dared to offend Fang Yao, Fang Yao¡¯s photo was blurred. Only Yin Xun¡¯s face was revealed, and there was a large caption. [Shocking news! The daughter of the Yin Corporation openly seduced another person¡¯s boyfriend and destroyed their relationship. She willingly became a mistress of love! ]


    The main text below included more details. It was so dramatic that even novels would not dare to make it up like this.


    Because only Fang Yao¡¯s face was blurred while his body was not, the more astute netizens should be able to find out who that man was very quickly.


    The only problem was that Fang Yao¡¯s whereabouts were usually very secretive, and very few people in the outside world knew about him. However, those friends in the entertainment industry who loved to watch entertainment news could tell at a glance that it was him.


    When Qu Lu saw the news, she almost spat out the drink she had just drank. She made an effort to swallow and coughed for a long time before calling Yin Xun.


    ¡°Yin Xun, did you see the news? What¡¯s happening with you?¡± she asked anxiously.


    Yin Xun said slowly, ¡°Rumors have been spread about me.¡±


    Only then did Qu Lu come back to her senses. She stammered, ¡°This means that the main character of this story who was cheated on¡­ is me¡­¡± The article even mentioned the Qu family¡¯s eldest daughter and said how pitiful she was.


    ¡°From the looks of it, it looks like it,¡± Yin Xun said.


    ¡°Those damned paparazzi! The entertainment industry¡¯s matters aren¡¯t enough for them to dig up. They even targeted us! My engagement with Fang Yao has been canceled a long time ago. If they want to deal with you, why are they dragging me down with them?! Just wait, I¡¯ll get someone to investigate who¡¯s spreading the rumors¡­¡± Qu Lu was furious..

 Chapter 615 - Chapter 615: Attacks From The Public

    Chapter 615: Attacks From The Public

    After being explicitly rejected by Fang Yao at the God of Love Temple, Qu Lu knew that no matter what she did, it was impossible for her to really be with Fang Yao.


    Even if she was not sincere with Fang Yao, as long as she married him, she would have completed her mission. However, the prerequisite was that Fang Yao had to agree to register their marriage.


    Back then, the reason she kept pestering Fang Yao was because this was the only option for her. The Qu family¡¯s parents would definitely favor their biological daughter. Her relationship with Qu Lin was not good, so for the sake of her future life, she had to do this.


    However, things were different now. Yin Xun had agreed to help her set up her own company, and she and Qu Lin had discussed the matter. Qu Lin no longer made things difficult for her. With a good friend who really wanted to help her, was this not much more reliable than pursuing a man who did not like her?


    Due to the previous misunderstandings, Qu Lu was worried that Yin Xun would think that she was the culprit. Hence, she hurriedly said, ¡°Yin Xun, I didn¡¯t do this. It has nothing to do with me!¡±


    Hearing her nervous explanation, Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°I know it¡¯s not you. If it was you, how could you blur out Fang Yao¡¯s face?¡±


    Qu Lu¡¯s face reddened. That was exactly what she had been thinking.


    If she was the one who did this, she would have directly revealed Fang Yao¡¯s identity so that others would stand up for her.


    ¡°This was something done against me, but don¡¯t worry. Don¡¯t worry about it for now. I have a way to deal with them.¡± Yin Xun said confidently.


    For some reason, Qu Lu realized that she had some inexplicable trust in Yin Xun. When she heard Yin Xun say that it could be resolved, she no longer had any doubts.


    After giving Yin Xun a few instructions, she hung up.


    Right now, Qu Lu did not want anything to happen to Yin Xun. After all, she still needed Yin Xun to help her set up a company. Putting everything else aside, just by looking at Xintao¡¯s current results, one could tell how talented Yin Xun was in business.


    Recently, Xintao was in the limelight. Due to a series of unorthodox activities, everyone was very curious about the boss of Xintao. When the news about Yin Xun appeared, it immediately caused a discussion.


    Everyone watched the commotion. Although they did not know if this matter was true or not, that was not important to the netizens at all. What was important was that there was something fun to watch.


    Soon, the news about Yin Xun¡¯s nasty character spread. Immediately after that, many posts complaining about Xintao Express appeared.


    Blue Fox spent a lot of money on public opinion this time. The entire Internet was discussing these things. Some of these comments even appeared in the comments section of other projects.


    On top of that, there were many negative videos about Yin Xun and Xintao Express in Rhythm video.


    As Yin Xun¡¯s assistant, Cheng She had been helping Yin Xun keep an eye on public opinion.


    When he saw the talk about ¡°Yin Xun destroying other people¡¯s relationships¡±, ¡°Poor delivery service, damaged and lost items upon delivery¡±, and so on, he immediately understood what was going on.


    Back when he was at Blue Fox, he had often used this method of public opinion to deal with others, even though it was Si Fan who had asked him to do it. When it came to something like this, he could see what was going on at a glance.


    However, no matter how much he had gone overboard in the past, he had only stirred some trouble for the company¡¯s competence. He did not expect them to escalate to a personal attack on Yin Xun this time.


    He could not help but worry. The public noise on the Internet was so fierce this time. Could Yin Xun handle it? Should he help her?


    Thinking about how Yin Xun had always been good to him ever since he came to work here, he stood up and planned to discuss a solution with Yin Xun.


    However, before he reached the door, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. He felt that it was inappropriate for him to interfere too much. After all, he was still an undercover agent. His purpose here was to help Si Fan disrupt the internal affairs of Xintao and Blue Fox.


    Now that Xintao and Blue Fox had fallen out, the next step should be to let them confront directly. There was no need for him to help Yin Xun resolve this matter, right?


    Cheng She was a little conflicted. Should he help or not? He began to pace around the office.


    Just as he was pondering over this, there was a knock on the office door. The door was opened and he saw Yin Xun standing at the door.


    ¡°President Yin, why are you here?¡± Cheng She was shocked. He felt as if he had done something wrong and was discovered.


    Yin Xun walked in and said, ¡°I came to see your work progress. At the same time, 1 have something to ask you for help with.¡±


    Upon hearing the word ¡®help¡¯, Cheng She immediately guessed that Yin Xun must be having trouble resolving the problem of public opinion and wanted his help to make a plan..

    Cheng She quickly reported the progress of the game before asking Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, what did you want me to help you with just now?¡±


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s like this. I think you¡¯ve already seen the rumors about me on the Internet recently.¡± Yin Xun saw Cheng Shen nod and continued, ¡°The popularity of those rumors is still not enough. Think of a way to increase the traction.¡±


    ¡°Increase the traction? President Yin, do you know that these rumors have already had a huge impact on you? These netizens do not have the ability to distinguish right from wrong at all. They just listen to whatever the wind brings in. Shouldn¡¯t we think of a way to get rid of the rumors?¡± Cheng She asked in confusion.


    This was the first time he had heard someone dissatisfied with rumors not being enough. If it were anyone else, they would have been angered to death by such rumors.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°These rumors are not a problem. We just need to find a notary to prove and clarify things. The most important thing is that I want to pull out the person behind it. With only this much traction, it can¡¯t be considered illegal at all, so I might as well increase the flames.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    He did not know what to say. He had to admit that Yin Xun was indeed very tolerant.


    ¡°Alright, you¡¯ve done well. Continue working hard.¡± Yin Xun turned around and left after saying her purpose for coming over.


    Cheng She could not help but call out to her, ¡°President Yin, there is one more thing that you forgot to mention. Right now, the comments regarding our express delivery on the internet¡­ What do you plan to do?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Cheng She meaningfully. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to pay so much attention.¡±


    ¡°Well, in order to make a game that satisfies the users, 1 have to look at the opinions of the users at any time, so 1 went online to read up¡­¡± Cheng She scratched his head and made up a reason for himself in a hurry.


    He could not possibly say that he had been keeping an eye on the situation related to Xintao in order to answer Si Fan at any time.


    Obviously, Yin Xun did not believe his reason.


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s half-smiling eyes, Cheng She smiled awkwardly and admitted the truth. ¡°Well, yes. Actually, I¡¯ve been paying attention to the company¡¯s situation. I¡¯ve encountered this type of thing when I was at Blue Fox in the past. The sudden appearance of a large number of negative comments was done by them.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. It was definitely done by Blue Fox,¡± Yin Xun said with a faint smile.


    ¡°Then what should we do? Although the rumors are not true, they will still cause a negative image for the delivery company,¡± Cheng She asked worriedly.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright. Let¡¯s not talk about whether the public opinion is fake or not. Even if it¡¯s real, we don¡¯t have to worry. In terms of reputation, Blue Fox was much worse than Xintao back then. For example, they had scam lottery draws, sold fake goods, and so on. On the other hand, we only have a problem with express delivery. The customers only have two choices. They will be sure to choose a platform with the smaller evil.¡±


    Her words made sense, but for some reason, Cheng She felt that something was amiss.


    He thought about it for a moment before he realized what the problem was. Was Yin Xun implying that she was competing with Blue Fox to see who was worse? As long as they were not worse than Blue Fox, Xintao would be safe?


    Her words were crude, but the logic was sound. That was indeed the case.


    ¡°Then we don¡¯t have to worry about those public comments at all?¡± Since Yin Xun was not worried, he did not have to feel concerned either.


    Yin Xun crossed her arms and thought for a moment. ¡°We can¡¯t ignore it completely. At least we can minimize the negative impact. Since you¡¯re so concerned about Xintao¡¯s situation, I¡¯ll leave this matter to you.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±!¡±


    ¡°President Yin, I still have to be responsible for the game¡­¡± Cheng She tried to turn her down.


    However, his rejection was ineffective. Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. In any case, you¡¯re only responsible for watching others work right now. You can even leave this to others. As long as the problem is resolved in the end, it¡¯s fine. As for who you choose to handle it, that¡¯s up to you. You did this to us many times when you were at Blue Fox. I believe in your experience. I am just making the best use of everything.¡±


    ¡°President Yin, I am not an object¡­¡± After Cheng She finished speaking, he realized what he had said, and he added, ¡°No, I am an object¡­ That¡¯s not right either¡­¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Cheng She, who was trying to find a way to refuse the job. She said with a smile, ¡°I know you¡¯re not an object. You¡¯re a spy, so 1 have to give you more missions so that I won¡¯t lose out.¡±


    These words directly blocked all of Cheng She¡¯s excuses. That was right, he was a spy. What right did he have to refuse?


    In the end, Cheng She finally gave up on resisting. He gritted his teeth and said, ¡°Okay, President Yin. 1 promise to complete the mission..¡±

    ¡°It would be great if Si Fan could send me two more outstanding people like you. I have other projects, but it¡¯s a pity that there¡¯s only one of you¡± Yin Xun said regretfully as she looked at Cheng She.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡®I¡¯m really sorry that I don¡¯t know any cloning techniques.¡¯ If Si Fan heard this, he might be furious. He definitely would not have thought that the spy he sent over would end up becoming Yin Xun¡¯s right-hand man.


    However, although Yin Xun planned to let Cheng She handle this matter, she still had to confirm the method.


    ¡°How do you plan to resolve the public opinion problem?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Cheng She thought for a moment and said, ¡°My method would usually be to delete the negative posts and find fake reviewers to give good reviews.¡±


    This was the simplest and most effective method. Back when he was under Si Fan, he had done the same.


    In the beginning, his idea was to solve the problem at its root and listen to the user¡¯s opinion. However, every time he raised his idea, he would be scolded by Si Fan. Si Fan felt that it was enough to suppress the matter. Solving the problem was time-consuming and unrewarding. Only he would suggest something like this.


    Of course, this method was only nice for the users. For capitalists, doing this would affect the speed at which they made money.


    Si Fan did not allow anyone to disobey him, so Cheng She never mentioned such thoughts again, lest he was scolded. He only said words that Si Fan liked to hear.


    Yin Xun immediately rejected Cheng She¡¯s idea. ¡°That won¡¯t do. We¡¯re in the service industry, and everything is based on the users. If the users complain about the delivery, you have to use the official account of the delivery platform to discuss the problems and solve them one by one. Be careful when trying to resolve them on the surface. If the other party is framing you, then keep the evidence and deal with it according to legal procedures.¡±


    Cheng She looked at Yin Xun in disbelief. Yin Xun¡¯s thoughts were actually similar to what he used to think. This was indeed the best way to solve the problem.


    As expected, Si Fan could not win against Yin Xun. The two of them were worlds apart in their thinking. Even if they invested ten times more in Si Fan, he would still lose in the end.


    Especially when it came to dealing with rumors. If Si Fan encountered them, his first reaction would be to scold him before asking him to deal with it immediately. If he did not handle it well, it would mean that he was not capable enough and he likely going to get a beating.


    The scales in Cheng She¡¯s heart were leaning more and more toward Yin Xun. He even wondered what the consequences would be if he really switched sides to Yin Xun.


    There was a saying that a person who betrayed his master could not remain alive. Even if he was threatened after defecting, if Yin Xun refused to accept him, he would be finished.


    ¡°President Yin, I¡­¡± Cheng She opened his mouth. He wanted to take a gamble, but after his gaze met Yin Xun¡¯s, he did not say the rest of his words. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. 1 know what to do.¡± Cheng She finally changed his words.


    Regarding whether he should trust Yin Xun or not, he was still a little conflicted. It was still too early. He should interact with her more.


    Yin Xun stared at him for two seconds before saying with a serious expression, ¡°Cheng She, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me at any time.¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Cheng She assured her.


    Seeing that Cheng She was not going to say anything, Yin Xun did not ask any more questions.


    What he chose was his own business. If he put his trust in her, she would help him. If he did not, there was nothing she could do.


    Yin Xun returned to her office and had just sat down when Liu Ying called. She quickly answered the call.


    ¡°Yin Xun, Qu Lu and I have already done preliminary investigations. We want to open our company near Xintao. What do you think?¡± Liu Ying asked.


    ¡°Of course you can. This is your own problem to solve. You should decide for yourself,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Liu Ying said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll tell Qu Lu later. It¡¯s settled then.¡±


    Yin Xun looked out of the window. There was a lot of traffic outside, and it was very bustling. After thinking for a moment, she asked Liu Ying, ¡°When do you plan to start? Will you work in Xintao for a while longer, or do you plan to directly leave and open a company?¡±


    What Liu Ying wanted to do was not complicated. As long as she was willing, Yin Xun could help give suggestions from time to time. However, Liu Ying¡¯s biggest problem now was the lack of talent.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be in a hurry to start. There are still a lot of preparations in the early stages. During this period, you can take leave at any time and go to the talent market to find people. It¡¯s very important to have capable employees in the early stages,¡± Yin Xun instructed.


    ¡°Alright, I understand,¡± Liu Ying said. She did not plan to hang up yet..

    Chapter 618: Trending Discussion


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun felt that there was something weird with her phone call this time, so she asked, ¡°Is there anything else?¡±


    Liu Ying said sheepishly, ¡°Well, Yin Xun, 1,1 think¡­ I¡¯m being a little ostentatious.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yin Xun did not understand.


    ¡°Here¡¯s the thing. My father knew that 1 invested in Xintao and always wanted me to withdraw my investment. It¡¯s not because of money, but because of dignity. My father feels that it was too embarrassing for his daughter to go against him, so he keeps looking for me.¡±


    Liu Ying coughed and continued, ¡°My father always felt that a girl like me isn¡¯t capable enough to start my own business. I just wanted to be the eldest daughter of the family. 1 couldn¡¯t win him over, so 1 told him about my business in a fit of anger, in front of all my family and servants too¡­¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Yes, isn¡¯t that normal? Regardless of whether you tell him or not, they will find out eventually.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s the problem.¡± Liu Ying let out a long sigh and said, ¡°In order to show that I¡¯m independent and to call my father out for favoring boys over girls, 1 said a lot of harsh words. For example, things like ¡®I want everyone who used to look down on me to worship me and that I¡¯ll trample on him like an ant¡¯¡­¡±


    They were ail harsh words, and they were even directed at her own family. Yin Xun did not even need to be present to imagine the awkwardness of the scene.


    However, if it was only awkwardness, that was fine. Based on Liu Yi¡¯s temper, she would not be surprised if Liu Ying got beaten up.


    As expected, Liu Ying continued, ¡°Because of my harsh words, my father was so angry that he beat up me and my brother¡­¡±


    ¡°I can understand him thrashing you, but why did your brother get beaten up too?¡± Yin Xun asked in confusion.


    Liu Ying flew into a rage out of humiliation. ¡°Yin Xun, watch what you¡¯re saying. It¡¯s understandable that 1 got beaten up?! Are we still good sisters? You don¡¯t care about me at all. You didn¡¯t even ask me if I was hurt badly!¡±


    ¡°Alright, alright, alright. I care about you. I care about you the most. So, why did your brother get beaten up too?¡± Yin Xun held back her laughter and asked.


    ¡°Because he was the instigator of all this. If he hadn¡¯t insisted on me getting married, would I have run away from home? Then, 1 did all these things. So¡­¡± Liu Ying also smiled. ¡°He was beaten up worse than me. I heard from the servants that his butt was bruised, while I only felt pain for a while. I have to say, the idea of favoring boys over girls has some benefits. At least people think that daughters shouldn¡¯t be hit too hard. They just have to discipline their son well.¡±


    Yin Xun did not know whether to laugh or cry at Liu Ying¡¯s logic. It seemed to make sense.


    ¡°Do you also think I¡¯m stupid?¡± Liu Ying could hear Yin Xun¡¯s amusement and asked.


    Yin Xun quickly said, ¡°No, how could I?¡±


    Liu Ying snorted coldly and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. In the end, I¡¯ll prove everything. 1 didn¡¯t tell them that you were going to help me open a company so that my father wouldn¡¯t look for you.¡±


    ¡°Then should I be touched?¡± Yin Xun probed.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need. I¡¯m just a loyal person.¡±


    After the two of them finished speaking, Yin Xun hung up the phone and took out the proposal to start reading.


    She had a new idea for Xintao Express, but this idea required her to go on a field trip.


    At the same time, inside Blue Fox¡­


    Over the past two days, the public talk about Yin Xun and Xintao was extremely heated. This even frightened a few of Blue Fox¡¯s investors.


    Everyone knew the law and knew that it was illegal to spread rumors. Although there was indeed a gray area in this matter, it was not good for them to expose other people¡¯s privacy.


    They started discussing the matter during the board meeting, but Le An did not attend this time and handed the matter to Xu Lin.


    Xu Lin knew that he was afraid of getting into trouble in the future, so he avoided it in advance.


    Zhao Xian said worriedly, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Yin Xun to be so well-known now. She¡¯s almost like a celebrity. A small matter like this actually caused such a huge commotion. There shouldn¡¯t be any problems, right?¡±


    ¡°What problem could there be? Fang Yao admitted it himself, and we have the photos. Look at the two of them standing so close to each other. Do they look like ordinary people who are just friends?¡± Chen Jue said angrily. ¡°Besides, what kind of person is Fang Yao? No matter how powerful the Yin family is, they can¡¯t reach someone like Fang Yao with their power, so Yin Xun must have used some dishonorable methods to get close to him..¡±

    ¡°But don¡¯t you realize that this matter seems to have gone out of control? It¡¯s as if there¡¯s an invisible hand pulling the strings. Now, it¡¯s already known to the entire Internet, and this topic has reached the trending searches. Could it be that someone is deliberately making this matter worse?¡± Zhao Xian was still a little worried.


    He had always sought stability in his work. Although he had a bad temper and sometimes resorted to immoral means to achieve his goals, this did not mean that he was brainless. He had already sensed that something was wrong.


    However, Chen Jue did not take this matter to heart. He even mocked Zhao Xian. ¡°Old Zhao, when did you become so timid? Besides, you agreed to this at the beginning. There are many rumors on the Internet. Who can find out that we did it? Perhaps Yin Xun¡¯s family wants to blow this matter up and add fuel to the fire?¡±


    Zhao Xian frowned and said, ¡°That¡¯s even more disadvantageous to us. Why should we charge into the front line and let Yin Xun pick up benefits from other families? Also, don¡¯t forget that you were the one who did this. What if this blows up so much that they find out about you?¡±


    These investors were bound together for good or ill. Whoever made a fool of themselves because of such a thing would implicate Blue Fox in the end. The others would also be affected.


    ¡°Director Chen, I also don¡¯t think it¡¯s safe to let this matter develop. Yin Xun isn¡¯t the kind of person who would let herself suffer a loss. 1 haven¡¯t heard Yin Xun make any countermeasures recently. Perhaps she¡¯s holding back some trump card. Also, express delivery is a small problem for them. Actually, it won¡¯t affect Xintao at all.¡± Xu Lin agreed with Zhao Xian¡¯s words. He was also a little worried.


    Chen Jue saw that two people were against him, and one of them did not even come to the meeting. Fine, he seemed to be the only bad guy this time.


    ¡°I don¡¯t even care anymore. Why are you guys so nervous?¡± Chen Jue complained.


    ¡°Old Liu, say something.¡± Chen Jue saw that the situation was disadvantageous to him and wanted Liu Yi to express his stance.


    Liu Yi slowly said, ¡°Actually, I didn¡¯t agree with this from the beginning. Business is business, and people are people. We¡¯re rather old men, but we actually used such a method to deal with a little girl. It¡¯s indeed a little overboard. This matter has blown up so much, and we know everything we need to know. We should spend some money to get rid of this.¡±


    ¡°Old Liu, why are you also¡­¡± Chen Jue was the only one left. If he continued to insist, he would become the only villain. ¡°Alright, alright, remove the rumors about the little girl. However, don¡¯t remove the comments about the delivery service. This has nothing to do with personal attacks. As for the truth¡­¡±


    A fierce look appeared in Chen Jue¡¯s eyes. When Xu Lin saw him like this, a bad feeling rose in his heart.


    Before he could speak, Chen Jue said darkly, ¡°Lil Xu, do you have the address of all the warehouses in Xintao? Send me a copy later.¡±


    Xu Lin¡¯s heart suddenly skipped a beat. He asked tentatively, ¡°Director Chen, why do you want the address?¡±


    ¡°Obviously, it¡¯s to cause some problems with Xintao¡¯s delivery service. As long as any wrongdoing is confirmed, the matter will blow up. Let¡¯s see how Xintao can continue operating,¡± Chen Jue said sinisterly. After saying that, he suddenly realized what Xu Lin had been thinking about. He rolled his eyes and said, ¡°I just want the addresses to be monitored one by one. If there are any problems happening, immediately expose them.¡±


    ¡°I see.¡± Xu Lin let out a long sigh of relief. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll send it to you after the meeting.¡±


    As for how to deal with Xintao next, everyone discussed ideas for a long time without any meaningful results. The only thing that everyone unanimously decided was to get rid of the rumors about Yin Xun.


    It was not because they felt sorry for Yin Xun, but because they were worried that if the matter blew up any further, they would face legal action.


    After all, when they hired the ghostwriters, they bought them under their own names. No one wanted to bear this responsibility.


    As for the issue of Xintao Express, Chen Jue would take care of it. Chen Jue said that he would keep an eye on Xintao¡¯s warehouses.


    When Xu Lin contacted the platform and prepared to spend money to remove Yin Xun¡¯s rumors, he realized that things were developing in a direction that he could no longer control. He did not expect that the rumors had already spread to more than one platform. The topic was trending on several platforms.


    As expected, they were not the only ones who wanted to mess with Yin Xun. Xu Lin could not help but worry. They seemed to have gone too far.


    In the evening, it was time to get off work.


    Yin Xun drove home. When she passed by the fruit shop, she bought a bouquet of flowers and a box of pastries. After parking the car, she carried her things and went straight to Fang Yao¡¯s house..

    As soon as she reached the door, the butler came out to welcome her with a smile. He seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood.


    ¡°Uncle Butler, did something good happen? You look so happy.¡± Yin Xun was infected by him and smiled too.


    The butler took the things and said, ¡°Hehe, it¡¯s nothing, it¡¯s nothing. Young Master will tell you personally. If I¡¯m the one who says it, then it won¡¯t be a surprise.¡±


    Hearing the butler¡¯s words, Yin Xun was even more confused. Could it be that Fang Yao wanted to give her a surprise?


    After the butler brought Yin Xun into the living room, he winked at Fang Yao, who was sitting on the sofa, and then went to the kitchen. Fang Yao seemed to be in a good mood too, and there was a smile in his eyes.


    ¡°Why? Did you hit the jackpot or something? Why are you so happy?¡± Yin Xun sat opposite Fang Yao in confusion.


    Fang Yao asked, ¡°What? Do 1 look happy?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Very happy.¡±


    In the past, although Fang Yao would sometimes smile helplessly, he rarely showed much of his expression. This time, however, from the moment she arrived, she could clearly see the smile on Fang Yao¡¯s face. That was why she was so surprised.


    ¡°My mother is awake.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and said lightly.


    It was indeed a good thing. Yin Xun also smiled. ¡°Congratulations. I just bought a box of pastries. The pastries at that place are very delicious and are especially difficult to snatch. 1 wanted to try my luck after work this time and arrived just in time. A customer who had already booked some of the pastries couldn¡¯t pick them up because he had something on, so I bought it. Let¡¯s celebrate for the time being. I¡¯ll give something to Auntie in the future.¡±


    ¡°Sure,¡± Fang Yao said in a good mood.


    However, when it came to giving gifts, he thought of the green plants and furniture in his courtyard and felt a little expectant. He was curious about what Yin Xun would give his mother.


    He was also a little worried. He felt that with Yin Xun¡¯s thinking, the gift should be very ¡°special¡±.


    ¡°Young Master, the food is ready. You and Miss Yin can go over and eat now,¡± the butler said as he walked over from the dining room.


    ¡°Okay, got it,¡± Fang Yao said to Yin Xun. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    The two of them went to the dining room. Just as Yin Xun had expected, there was another table full of blood-nourishing dishes.


    Losing blood was very detrimental to one¡¯s spirit. For the past two days, Yin Xun had been feeling a little tired. Fang Yao must have noticed it, so he asked the butler to prepare a more nutritious meal.


    Moreover, due to the special situation this time, Fang Yao made an exception and allowed Yin Xun to eat to her heart¡¯s content before she recovered.


    Yin Xun felt that even if she controlled her appetite, she would gain weight like crazy with the calories of these dishes.


    Her diet had just begun, but it had already failed. Yin Xun asked Fang Yao how much longer she would have to eat nutritious meals. Fang Yao said it would be around half a year.


    Yin Xun fell into despair. After half a year, she felt that if she continued to eat like this, she would eventually become a pig. She wanted to object, but her argument was ineffective. Not only did Fang Yao disagree, but even the butler kept nagging her about nutrition.


    Yin Cheng had already criticized her for being fat. If he saw her gain even more weight, he would probably not recognize her when they met again.


    After dinner, Yin Xun was worried that the butler would bring her more snacks, so she found an excuse to leave first. When she reached the door of the courtyard, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to say something.


    She had no choice but to return. At the entrance of the living room, she saw that the butler and Fang Yao seemed to be discussing something. She was a little excited. It seemed to be about her because she heard her name.


    The butler had a look of disappointment on his face. This was the first time Yin Xun had seen such an expression on the butler¡¯s face since she started going to Fang Yao¡¯s house to freeload.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Is there anything else?¡± Fang Yao immediately asked when he saw Yin Xun return.


    When the butler heard Fang Yao¡¯s words, he turned around and saw Yin Xun standing at the door looking at them in confusion. He quickly took a few steps to the side and smiled at Yin Xun to ease the awkwardness.


    ¡°Were you guys talking about me just now?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously. She was very sure that she had heard her name.


    Fang Yao shook his head. ¡°No, you heard wrong.¡±


    Yin Xun had no intention of pressing onward. She smiled and said nonchalantly, ¡°By the way, there¡¯s something 1 forgot to tell you. I¡¯m going on a business trip tomorrow, so I won¡¯t be coming over for dinner. I¡¯m not sure how long it will be, but it should be at least three to four days.¡±


    ¡°Business trip?¡± Fang Yao was stunned for a moment and asked, ¡°What for?¡±


    Yin Xun explained, ¡°The last live broadcast was very effective. I¡¯m going to talk about the next live event. In addition, 1 plan to go to those high-tier cities to inspect the market situation. It seems that it¡¯s not convenient to buy fresh meat in many cities. I want to try building a few large warehouses specifically to deliver fresh meat.¡±


    Fang Yao was surprised.. ¡°Aren¡¯t there already many supermarkets in the city?¡±

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°That¡¯s true, but the two are different things. Those who buy fresh food from Xintao can also have discounts. In addition, they can buy in bulk and have it delivered directly to their door. It only takes half a day from the order to the receipt of the goods. Moreover, this will belong to Xintao. Unlike other shops, the profits earned will fully belong to us.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°It seems like Xintao is improving rapidly. Blue Fox Express still takes a few days for delivery, but you can almost make it in half a day.¡± ¡°Actually, I¡¯ve wanted to do this project for a long time. Unfortunately, Xintao just started at that time, and all my focus was on the main platform. Now that Xintao has stabilized and the profits are enough to support this plan, I naturally have to implement it as soon as possible. Besides¡­¡± Yin Xun paused and continued, ¡°That warehouse was a gift from my father for Xintao¡¯s opening. I saved a lot of money on it.¡±


    ¡°I see.¡± Fang Yao also revealed a smile. ¡°It seems that I don¡¯t need to provide financial support this time.¡±


    Yin Xun snapped her fingers and said, ¡°You¡¯ve already provided a lot of financial support. If nothing goes wrong, I¡¯ll definitely give you a big surprise at the end of the year!¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll be waiting for that.¡± Fang Yao nodded. ¡°When are you leaving?¡±


    ¡°The flight is at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow,¡± Yin Xun replied.


    ¡°Do you need me to send you there?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°No need. Tan Ai will drive me and Shu Yi over tomorrow. I¡¯ll bring you a gift when I come back. I¡¯ll be leaving then.¡±


    Yin Xun turned around and left. Fang Yao¡¯s gaze gradually darkened.


    Actually, he wanted to declare that he had nothing to do recently. He wanted to ask Yin Xun if he could follow her, but he thought about it and decided against it in the end.


    However, she seemed to be leaving for a rather long time¡­


    ¡°Young Master, that was such a good opportunity just now. Why didn¡¯t you say that Madam wants to see Miss Yin?¡± The butler saw that Yin Xun had left, and he continued to ask Fang Yao, ¡°Also, those rumors on the internet are getting crazy. Originally, they were only targeting Miss Yin, but later on, they even dragged you and Miss Qu Lu into this. This matter is getting out of hand.¡± Earlier, he was in the middle of asking Fang Yao about this, but Yin Xun arrived unexpectedly. Therefore, he waited for Yin Xun¡¯s figure to completely disappear before continuing to ask about it.


    Fang Yao casually leaned against the back of the sofa, crossed his legs, and tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa.


    After a while, he said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect this matter to happen so quickly. I originally planned to settle this issue after Yin Xun achieved our goals. It¡¯s not time yet. It¡¯s useless for Madam to change her mind now. It¡¯s better for her not to see Yin Xun for the time being. As for the rumors¡­¡±


    ¡°Currently, Madam¡¯s body has not recovered yet. She is only awake for a short while before she gets tired, so she does not look at her phone much. She knows nothing about this incident. In Madam¡¯s heart, your fiancee is still Miss Qu Lu. So, I think that we should take this opportunity to let Miss Yin and Madam meet. Perhaps Madam will change her mind.¡± The butler frowned. ¡°Although Miss Yin¡¯s background is slightly inferior, whether it is in terms of looks or ability, she exceeds Miss Qu Lu. If Madam wants to find someone who can help you in the future, the clear choice is Miss Yin.¡±


    The corners of Fang Yao¡¯s lips curled up slightly. ¡°It¡¯s not the right time to talk about this. Let¡¯s wait a little longer. Yin Xun knows how to resolve the rumors herself. It¡¯s not convenient for me to interfere. However, if Madam finds out about this, it¡¯ll be another matter.¡±


    The butler had watched Fang Yao grow up and knew him very well. When he saw Fang Yao¡¯s expression, he immediately understood and smiled. ¡°You mean¡­ 1 understand.¡±


    At this moment, the sky gradually darkened, and Yin Xun came out of Fang Yao¡¯s house.


    When she was about to reach her house, she took out her phone and called Cheng She, telling him not to worry about the rumors for now. She would deal with this matter personally when she returned. She told him to only help her collect evidence, in case those accounts were deleted in the future and she could not find them.


    After instructing Cheng She, Yin Xun contacted Mary and Mi Jin one after another and instructed them on some matters before she finally felt relieved.


    The next day, Yin Xun and Shu Yi took a plane to their destination.


    Cheng She came to work as usual. Just as he was thinking of a way to deal with the public opinion of the delivery, Si Fan called.


    It was a call during working hours. Cheng She found a place with fewer people and picked up the call with his earpiece.


    Si Fan never did anything according to the rules. When he had something on his mind, he did not even care if Cheng She was at work or not before calling him directly.


    He could not leave the office to answer the call every time, right? He might as well buy earphones. This way, he did not have to worry about what others would overhear. He could even respond to the call according to the situation..

    ¡°Cheng She, what¡¯s going on with Yin Xun? Could it be that the online rumors are true? She¡¯s either too ashamed to refute or can¡¯t refute, so she¡¯s not even trying to resist?¡± Si Fan¡¯s words were filled with delight at her misfortune.


    As expected, it was because of Xintao again.


    Cheng She sighed in his heart and said helplessly, ¡°President Si, these public opinion attacks are too strong. They can¡¯t be resolved for the time being.¡±


    Regarding this matter, his heart instinctively decided not to tell Si Fan the truth.


    Since Yin Xun trusted him and gave him the mission despite knowing that he was a spy, he inexplicably did not want to let her down. However, he did not dare to lie to Si Fan, so he could only think of a loophole to get around it.


    ¡°Is Yin Xun so useless? She doesn¡¯t even know how to handle such a simple thing.¡± Si Fan snorted coldly and said mockingly, ¡°You can help Yin Xun appropriately. Didn¡¯t 1 teach you how to deal with this kind of thing back then?¡±


    Cheng She silently rolled his eyes. Of course. Back then, Si Fan was always afraid of trouble and asked him to spend money to delete any negative posts and hire fake reviewers to flood the comments. In the end, not only was it useless, but it even caused the users to rebel and directly flood the comment section on their own. It was comparable to having fake reviewers working against you.


    ¡°I understand. I didn¡¯t step in earlier because I was waiting for your permission. It¡¯s working hours now, and 1 didn¡¯t dare to call you and ask for advice. If people find out that I¡¯m your undercover agent, wouldn¡¯t that be bad?¡± Cheng She looked around and saw that there was no one working. Then, he spoke in a whisper.


    After following Si Fan for so long, he had only learned one thing from him, which was how to make Si Fan happy.


    As long as Si Fan supported him, he would not make him lose face unless there were any special circumstances. He could even do whatever he wanted.


    Of course, if Si Fan was in a bad mood or if the situation was unnatural, this would be useless. As such, Cheng She had been beaten up and scolded many times before.


    Upon hearing Cheng She¡¯s words of loyalty, Si Fan smiled smugly. ¡°You just need to remember that the current mission is to let Xintao spend more money. Spend as much money as you can. Isn¡¯t Yin Xun rich? Then, we¡¯ll hollow out her reserves. As for other aspects, you can even help Blue Fox deal with Yin Xun. Draining Yin Xun¡¯s finances now is the preparation for me to regain my authority over Blue Fox in the future.¡±


    ¡°Yes, President Si!¡± Cheng She said.


    ¡°Also, you¡­¡± Si Fan was about to say something when Cheng She heard a commotion coming from the other end of the phone. The next second, the call was hung up.


    Cheng She looked at his phone, which had turned black, and waited for a while. Seeing that Si Fan did not seem to be calling back, he put the phone away and walked to his office.


    At this moment, he was a little speechless. His identity had long been exposed, but Si Fan still did not realize that.


    Both sides trusted him so much that they handed the most important tasks to him to handle. Then, he could leak information to the two of them at any time. He felt more and more like a double agent, the kind that was actually very successful.


    He searched for Zhu Mei and asked her to keep an eye on the gaming department. If she had anything to report, she would call him and let him know. After instructing her, he needed to go to the public relations department to resolve the problem of the public¡¯s opinion on their delivery service.


    Before going to the public relations department, Cheng She thought about the big things that happened. Negative topics about their express delivery had been on the trending searches. If the public relations department could not resolve this matter, they must be very busy right now.


    Unexpectedly, when he entered the office, he noticed that no one was in a hurry or seemed too busy. They were all doing their own things in an orderly manner.


    The PR manager saw Cheng She coming over and immediately welcomed him. ¡°Assistant Cheng, you¡¯re here.¡±


    ¡°Are you guys dealing with the express delivery being a trending topic?¡± Cheng She looked around the office and asked.


    The manager shook his head and said, ¡°No, President Yin asked us to wait for you to come over before we deal with it. She said that we are not in a hurry. Since you are here now, shall we start?¡± The manager probed.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    This was the first time he had seen this kind of operation. They were already on fire, but the people were not in a hurry at all! If it was Si Fan, he would have stomped his feet and scolded someone by now.


    Cheng She realized that Yin Xun had always been calm. No matter what happened, she was always like this. He convinced himself that he should slowly get used to it.


    With Yin Xun¡¯s personality, she must be calm because she was confident. Could it be because she trusted him that much?


    At the thought of this, Cheng She was instantly touched.


    He was an undercover agent, but Yin Xun trusted him so much. When faced with such a big matter, she still gave him full authority to solve it. Not only did she not ask questions, but she was also so carefree about it. Cheng She secretly decided that he had to solve the problem magnificently..

    Following Yin Xun¡¯s instructions, he got someone to use Lechang¡¯s official account as a customer service officer to review every bad review. He inquired about the problems they faced and assured them that he would do his best to solve the problem. He did not even ignore the newly registered accounts and kept asking them what problem they had encountered.


    Whether it was because they felt guilty or did not see the messages, many accounts did not reply at all.


    However, that did not matter. At least they had fulfilled their obligations. This was public viewing. Passersby could see the comments and all that mattered was that people knew they were seriously thinking for the users.


    There were also many accounts that replied to official inquiries.


    Among the comments, some were really problematic. For example, the courier might have been a little rough, causing the delivery box to be damaged. However, it was only the box outside that was broken, and the things inside were not damaged.


    Although it was not a big deal, Cheng She still asked the official account to apologize and promise that the problem would be reported and paid attention to.


    Other than that, there were some other problems that could not be substantiated. Some people could not even provide the delivery number. There were also some who casually gave a delivery number and asked many questions. However, when Cheng She checked with the internal investigation, he found that the account did not tally with the delivery at all because the area was different.


    Lechang¡¯s official account was so active it seemed like a fake account. As long as a post mentioned Xintao and Lechang, the official account would appear under the post.


    No official account had ever been so ¡°friendly¡± to the people. Instantly, the topic of Lechang¡¯s official account became trending again, instantly gaining the favor of many regular people.


    In addition, many of the online trolls were afraid of being held accountable and quickly deleted their posts.


    However, it was already too late. Cheng She had already recorded all the posts according to Yin Xun¡¯s request. He planned to send a legal letter after collecting all of them.


    Because of his serious and responsible attitude, he gained a lot of favorable impressions. Users began to speak up for Xintao again.


    ¡°Assistant Feng, there¡¯s suddenly a group of users who are supporting us on the Internet. Are these the paid posters you bought?¡± the staff of the Public Relations Department asked.


    The express delivery company had been hounded for such a long time. Although there were people who spoke up for Lechang previously, they were quickly forced to delete the comments by the netizens who scolded them. After that, no one openly showed them any support.


    Although they wanted to interfere at that time, the internet army came too suddenly. Moreover, it was obvious that it was organized and premeditated. They could only wait for Yin Xun to respond.


    Later, Yin Xun told them that there was no need to worry. This kind of thing would not affect the delivery system. When Cheng She arrived, everything would be resolved. The employees were not worried because Yin Xun never made empty promises.


    This time, as soon as Cheng She came over to help, people began supporting Xintao again. They all thought that Cheng She hired fake reviewers.


    Cheng She was also a little surprised. ¡°Someone is speaking up for us? Let me see.¡±


    The employee said, ¡°That¡¯s right. Previously, there were only a few, but the moment someone said anything, they would be scolded by the masses. Later on, no one dared to say anything. I think we should protect the users who got cursed at this time. After all, they are helping us.¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s take a look first, since flattery is another method of defamation.¡± Cheng She walked to the computer and refreshed the webpage. Sure enough, there were many new posts. Because there were so many of them, they directly flooded out all the malicious posts.


    [Some people shouldn¡¯t open their mouths if they haven¡¯t used Lechang Delivery before. Although Lechang is slow and doesn¡¯t deliver goods to the doorstep, and there is the occasional missing delivery, the flaws don¡¯t mask the beauty. Lechang Delivery is good overall. The ones who say that Lechang sucks must be paid posters sent by the enemy. What¡¯s wrong with Lechang? It is great in so many aspects! If anyone dares to criticize Lechang, I¡¯ll curse your entire family!]


    Sure enough, there were users retorting in the comments under this post.


    [We¡¯re all users. Why can¡¯t we comment on the good and bad points of Lechang?]


    [That¡¯s right. If it¡¯s good, it¡¯s good. If it¡¯s bad, it¡¯s bad. What arrogant words. They don¡¯t care about the users at all. Blue Fox has never said such a thing. Forget it, I don¡¯t dare to use this app. If they can find my address and see my comments, I¡¯ll be worried that someone will bring a knife to my house to kill me. I¡¯ll go to Blue Fox to buy my stuff.]


    In the comments section, there were some who were really influenced. There were also some who could tell at a glance that people were deliberately talking about Lechang while drawing attention to Blue Fox.


    Cheng She pointed at the post and said, ¡°Do you see this? This is a complimentary post. On the surface, it looks like they¡¯re on our side, but they¡¯re actually helping Blue Fox. It¡¯s obvious that Blue Fox bought this comment.¡±


    The operations manager asked, ¡°So what do we do?¡±

    Chapter 624: It¡¯s Nice To Have Money


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation     Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Cheng She thought for a moment and said,¡± How about this? For this type of user, you can release an announcement later. Lechang Express will release a post every other week to specifically accept opinions from all users. There is no need for people to call to complain, nor do they need to use their Xintao account to make comments. Here on the webpage, people can comment regardless of whether they are Xintao users or not. That way, they won¡¯t have to worry about the courier finding their home address and putting them in danger.¡±


    Upon hearing Cheng She¡¯s plan, the operations manager looked at him in shock. He gave him a thumbs up and said, ¡°As expected of the person personally recommended by President Yin. You¡¯re amazing!¡±


    After praising Cheng She, the manager immediately asked him to make the announcement.


    After the announcement was made, he continued to use Lechang¡¯s account to find comments with questions. This time, after answering the users, he did not forget to add a sentence at the end: [For details, please see the main page.]


    Cheng She continued to scan the comments.


    [I hear that Lechang Express often loses items, and they handle goods roughly. The delivery staff are also bad-tempered. I heard that they even got into a fight with customers. My parcel was sent to Lechang. At that time, I was worried that my things would be lost too. In the end, not only were they delivered safely, but they were also sent to the express delivery station on time. Even the outer packaging was not damaged at all. The courier even called me to tell me that the goods had arrived. That¡¯s what I like to hear! ]


    [1 say, when you send things for personal reasons, have you ever used Lechang Express? It¡¯s cheap and the service is good. Just by adding one yuan, you can choose the urgent delivery option. Do you know how fast it is? It only takes half the time! And for only one yuan! Lechang Express is my favorite express delivery this year. It¡¯s super friendly to individual merchants and helps us save a lot of delivery fees! ]


    The topic of Lechang was a chaotic battle. Some directly scolded the company, some ridiculed them, and at the same time, some praised Lechang.


    However, what Cheng She did not expect was that even the merchants had joined in the comments.


    No wonder the staff suspected that he had hired fake reviewers. The situation indeed looked like fake reviewers were involved, but he was sure that he had not hired any. Since it was not done by the operations department, there was only one possibility. This was arranged by Yin Xun before she left.


    Just in case, Cheng She personally called the person in charge of Lechang Express Delivery to ask about the delivery situation and see if the situation described on the Internet had happened.


    In the end, it seemed it was false. They were usually very careful when delivering packages, making sure not to break any packages.


    After all, this was linked to their performance. If the accident rate was zero every month, they would get a bonus. The amount was not small, and no one would say no to money.


    Moreover, Yin Xun was afraid that the delivery staff would be very busy, so she deliberately reduced the number of deliveries per person and increased the amount of manpower to ensure that the delivery was fast and orderly.


    The most important thing was that they would call the customers before they delivered the goods, asking if they needed to leave it at the collection point or deliver it to their doorstep. Each courier did not have a lot of goods, so they were not rushing. They could serve every customer very well.


    Most of the customers were young people who usually had to work during the day. The deliveries were mostly left at the collection point. Only the older people would ask for deliveries to their doorstep.


    This was something they were happy to do. After all, it was helping the elderly.


    ¡°It¡¯s nice to have money¡­¡± After Cheng She hung up the phone, he could not help but sigh.


    The staff at the side was confused and said, ¡°Assistant Cheng, what did you say?¡±


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s nothing. Work hard and keep an eye on things for the next few days.¡± Cheng She smiled awkwardly.


    At the same time, he was surprised. He did not expect Yin Xun to spend so much money on express delivery. Lechang Express Delivery was known for being cheap, and it had even attracted many Blue Fox merchants for their delivery needs.


    The profit was small, and in the process of delivery, they even increased employee benefits and manpower. If he did not calculate wrongly, Yin Xun¡¯s Lechang Express Delivery had virtually no income.


    Yin Xun would actually do such a thankless thing. If it was Si Fan, he would refuse to do this no matter what. Yin Xun certainly had some courage.


    At the same time, he also understood why Yin Xun was so assured to leave this matter to him. It was because there was no problem with the express delivery itself, so she was not afraid of being investigated at all.


    Even if he wanted to stir up some trouble as a spy, he could not do anything about it. The only way was to fabricate something out of thin air. However, as long as he made a simple check, he would know that Lechang was accused wrongly..

    With their clarification and sincerity to their clients, they caught the attention of many regular people.


    Originally, there were some people who had never heard of Lechang before, but when they saw this scene, they immediately dropped comments.


    [Are they really that good? I¡¯ll try it too. If it works, i¡¯ll use this express delivery in the future. If for no other reason than the great after-sales service.]


    Seeing that the public opinion on the Internet was gradually leaning toward Lechang, Cheng She could not help but feel proud, since he was the one in charge of handling this matter.


    This was much more satisfying than being forced to work by Si Fan at Blue Fox.


    After a busy day, he finally replied to every user. Seeing that more and more accounts were speaking positively about Lechang, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.


    Next, it was the most critical moment. They had already gathered the evidence and began to investigate who had paid for the fake reviews.


    While Cheng She was feeling pleased, Xu Lin was having a hard time.


    The investors had given him full authority to handle the matter. If it failed in the end, he would definitely be the one to bear the responsibility.


    Like Cheng She, he was just an ordinary worker. Therefore, in order to complete his mission, he had been keeping an eye on the public comments on the Internet.


    In the beginning, they did have the advantage and obtained the support of many ordinary people. He had even thought of how Xintao would handle the public backlash. He was sure that Xintao would look for fake reviewers to hide the comments.


    He had even thought of a countermeasure. As long as he caught the evidence of Xintao trying to hide comments, he could make it look like a ¡°criminal act¡±.


    However, he never thought that Xintao would choose this method to solve the problem. They were so sincere that they even advertised Lechang as a side effect.


    At this moment, Xu Lin was very frustrated. He wanted to continue hiring paid reviewers to help, but those groups refused to work with him.


    However, this was only the beginning. The slanderous music had failed. If he failed to discredit Lechang Express, he would at most be scolded by his superiors. Blue Fox would not suffer any losses. What happened next really scared him. It was not just him, but even the higher-ups of Blue Fox were alarmed.


    Regarding Yin Xun¡¯s rumors, the Fang family actually came forward to resolve them!


    The madam of the Fang family, Lin Chan, had just gotten into a car accident and her body had yet to fully recover. She was still resting on the hospital bed. Hence, she asked the reporters to come to the hospital and personally declared that Fang Yao was currently single. She had always treated Qu Lu as her own daughter. How could she be Fang Yao¡¯s fiancee?


    In addition, she also said that if Yin Xun was willing to be the Fang family¡¯s daughter-in-law, she would be honored to accept her.


    As soon as Lin Chan said this, the news about Qu Lu being Fang Yao¡¯s fiancee was immediately deleted.


    What status did the Fang Family have? What status did Lin Chan have? Who dared to go against them?


    Even Qu Lu made a statement, claiming that Fang Yao was like her elder brother. The two of them had never had any other relationship. In the future, if anyone dared to spout nonsense again, she would sue them for slander.


    This was essentially the Fang and Qu families stepping in at the same time. Not to mention those fake internet posters, even the platform did not dare to offend them. Without needing the hired posters to do anything, the platform directly started to delete the relevant posts.


    However, it was already too late. The Fang family had long found out who was behind this.


    Yin Xun was currently on a business trip and was too busy to pay attention to what was happening there.


    If it were her, she might have spared Blue Fox some face. However, the Fang family did not hold back at all. They did not show any mercy and sent a lawyer¡¯s letter to Blue Fox.


    It was not enough to send out a lawyer¡¯s letter. They even warned them that if Blue Fox used such an improper method to harm others again, the Fang family would have the right to use legal means.


    As soon as this news was released, the Internet exploded.


    Cheng She, who was still fighting for public opinion of the express delivery, was shocked when he saw this report. He stood rooted to the ground, almost turning into a statue.


    What did he just see? He was not sure if he saw it right. He looked at it again and finally confirmed that he was not seeing things.


    So, when Yin Xun said that he did not have to bother with the rumors, was that because she wanted the Fang family to solve it?!


    No, that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was what Lin Chan had said. ¡°If Yin Xun is willing to be the Fang Family¡¯s daughter-in-law, she would be honored to accept her!¡±


    Therefore, the relationship between Yin Xun and Fang Yao was not just a business collaboration. It turned out that the two of them were really having an affair¡­ Cough, cough, something else.


    It was not just him, but even the onlookers immediately understood what was going on.


    It was obvious by now that the public opinion about Yin Xun, Fang Yao, and Lechang was orchestrated by Blue Fox..

 Chapter 626 - Chapter 626: Taking The Blame

    Chapter 626: Taking The Blame


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Since the matter was already so obvious, those netizens who had been scolded before finally had a chance to retaliate.


    Previously, because they praised Lechang Express, they had been chased and cursed by the internet troll army. Now that even the Fang family had spoken, they would not tolerate it anymore.


    [Is Blue Fox trying to self-destruct? In order to suppress Xintao, they actually did something so low. Isn¡¯t it embarrassing? Such a big company is bullying a new company.]


    [I heard that the former president of Blue Fox was called Si Fan. He¡¯s the brother-in-law of the president of Xintao, Yin Xun. Because he was jealous that Yin Xun was better than him, he did all kinds of bad things to Xintao. In the end, he got himself in trouble. With the type of person the new president is, it seems that birds of a feather really flock together. Blue Fox¡¯s people never forgot their original goal; they had always been aiming to attack Xintao.]


    [Before Blue Fox starts spreading rumors, you should think about how disgusting your own delivery is. Lost packages, damaged goods, all kinds of problems. 1 contacted customer service, but they didn¡¯t solve the problems properly. Their attitude was very nice, but they kept challenging me. It was useless. Originally, 1 was a regular Blue Fox user. This time, it seems that 1 should use Lechang Express.]


    The moment the Fang family voiced out, the public opinion on the Internet instantly changed.


    Which group of fake posters would dare to go against the Fang family? They did not say anything. In the end, they would rather refund the money paid by Blue Fox than take on similar jobs.


    Blue Fox held another shareholders meeting. This time, Xu Lin became the target of everyone¡¯s blame.


    ¡°Xu Lin, where did you get the information? Don¡¯t you know the relationship between the Fang family and Yin Xun? This time, something major almost happened. Fortunately, the Fang family didn¡¯t continue to pursue the matter. Otherwise, we would all be finished!¡± As soon as the video call was connected, Chen Jue began to scold Xu Lin.


    ¡°I tried to persuade you that doing this was inappropriate¡­¡± Xu Lin explained helplessly.


    Before he could finish, Zhao Xian spoke. ¡°Lil Xu, you were in charge of dealing with Xintao, so you have the obligation to investigate Yin Xun¡¯s connections and Xintao¡¯s current situation before you start. Think of how to give the Fang family a proper explanation for this matter. We¡¯ll deal with this first. After this part is resolved, we¡¯ll think of a way to deal with Xintao.¡±


    Faced with the blame of the directors, Xu Lin felt really bitter. He had no choice. Among these people, he was the only ordinary worker.


    ¡°Alright, 1¡¯11 settle this matter.¡± Xu Lin could only accept his fate and agree.


    After hanging up the phone, he suddenly thought of Cheng She. Back then, Cheng She seemed to be a punching bag like him. In the end, the company pushed everything on him and made him resign.


    ¡°I seem to remember Cheng She moving to Xintao. Wasn¡¯t he doing quite well there?¡± Xu Lin muttered to himself. He wondered if he would become the next Cheng She.


    ¡°Let¡¯s not worry about the future. Let¡¯s settle the current matter first.¡± With the shift in public view on the Internet, he had a lot of work to do.


    The Fang family¡¯s interference with the rumors had even alarmed Yin Cheng. He rarely went online, but his assistant had told him about what happened with Yin Xun.


    When he first found out that someone had made up dirty rumors about Yin Xun, he was furious. It was obvious that it was fake news. Someone must be jealous of Yin Xun, so they did something so despicable.


    Yin Cheng contacted Yin Xun and asked her how they should deal with this matter. Yin Xun told him not to worry and said that she would resolve it.


    Yin Cheng had thought of several solutions, but he never expected the Fang family to personally resolve it.


    ¡°Did that brat do something in secret?¡± As a man, Yin Cheng could naturally tell what Fang Yao was thinking whenever he looked at Yin Xun. ¡°My daughter is so amazing. 1 can¡¯t let others take advantage of her.¡±


    Yin Cheng had a good first impression of Fang Yao, and he was well aware of Fang Yao¡¯s ability. Logically speaking, Fang Yao should be the best candidate for a son-in-law.


    However, for some reason, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about Yin Xun really being with Fang Yao.


    So what if Fang Yao was powerful? Yin Xun was not weak either.


    He knew that Yin Xun must be busy right now, but he really could not wait any longer, so he called Yin Xun directly to ask about the situation.


    ¡°Xun, are you really together with Fang Yao?¡± Yin Cheng asked directly.


    Yin Xun was stunned and asked in confusion, ¡°You suddenly called me to ask about this?¡±


    ¡°What else? Do you know how much of a commotion this is making on the Internet? Who do you think the Fang family is? Lin Chan actually declared that she wants you to be the daughter-in-law of the Fang family. It¡¯s fine if that kid Fang Yao likes you. At the very least, you don¡¯t have to care about your partner¡¯s family background when you¡¯re in a relationship. However, it¡¯s not normal for Lin Chan to act like this. Why would a family like the Fang family think so highly of you?¡± Yin Cheng said bluntly..

 Chapter 627 - Chapter 627: Upgrading Delivery

    Chapter 627: Upgrading Delivery


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Although Yin Xun was outstanding compared to others and her current career was very successful, in the eyes of the Fang family, it must be equivalent to watching a child play house. He did not believe that the Fang family would look at Yin Xun in a new light just because she had established the Xintao company. ¡°What do you mean by daughter-in-law? What relationship? Dad, what are you talking about?¡± Yin Xun felt helpless. From Yin Cheng¡¯s words, he seemed to be saying that she was useless.


    However, the most important thing was, when was she dating Fang Yao?


    This time, it was Yin Cheng¡¯s turn to be stunned. He asked, ¡°You don¡¯t know about this?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve been busy discussing my project,¡± Yin Xun said helplessly. ¡°1 don¡¯t have time to pay attention to anything else.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun did not know about this, Yin Cheng told her about Lin Chan¡¯s announcement. Only then did Yin Xun understand.


    ¡°Dad, Fang Yao¡¯s mother had a car accident a few days ago,¡± Yin Xun explained. ¡°We couldn¡¯t find anyone with the same blood type, so I was the one who donated her blood. So she was just helping me. Don¡¯t ask further about this. It¡¯s just a formality. I¡¯ll thank her when I get back. Don¡¯t think too much about it.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. With the Fang family¡¯s strength, how could they really want you to be their daughter-in-law? If it¡¯s to repay a favor, then it makes sense.¡± Yin Cheng muttered. ¡°Forget it. Fang Yao is not bad, but the threshold of the Fang family is still too high for us. If the gap is too big, you will definitely be bullied in the future and suffer. Xun, don¡¯t worry. Daddy will research which of the youngsters are good for you. 1 will definitely find you a good man who is not inferior to Fang Yao in terms of looks and ability.¡±


    Hearing Yin Cheng¡¯s words, Yin Xun choked and coughed a few times. She hurriedly said, ¡°Come on, Dad, don¡¯t worry about this. Didn¡¯t I already say that my focus now is on my career? Alright, I¡¯m very busy here. I¡¯ll hang up first.¡± ¡°Remember to come home for dinner when you come back. Don¡¯t stay out all the time. I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll forget where your home is soon.¡± Yin Cheng complained.


    ¡°Alright, alright,¡± Yin Xun agreed with a smile. ¡°I promise I¡¯ll go straight home to see you and Mother!¡±


    After saying that, the two of them ended the call.


    There were a lot of things that happened on this business trip. Yin Xun stayed outside for a full ten days before returning.


    In these ten days, Blue Fox¡¯s reputation fell again because of the rumors they spread about Yin Xun and Lechang Express. The number of users decreased, and many people were attracted to Xintao.


    On top of that, Blue Fox received a direct warning from the Fang family. In the end, Xu Lin came forward to apologize, saying that the rumors were spread by an employee of the company who had since been fired.


    Even though everyone knew that this ¡°employee¡± was made of thin air, no one pursued it and the matter was considered to have passed.


    Since it was impossible to get through the crooked ways, Blue Fox could only work on their own foundation.


    Seeing that Xintao¡¯s express delivery operation was very successful, they began to imitate Xintao¡¯s express delivery operation model.


    Zhongda Express was controlled by Le An. He was the main investor. Originally, everyone wanted to use Zhongda Express for testing, but Le An felt that it was not particularly reliable, so he asked Xu Lin to contact another express delivery company, Speedy Express.


    This way, even if he failed in the end, it would not affect him.


    Sun Lei, the boss of Speedy Express Delivery, was still a little worried when he first received Xu Lin¡¯s message. After all, upgrading the entire express delivery system would require a lot of investment. If they relied on themselves, they definitely would not be able to do it.


    However, Xu Lin promised that Blue Fox would invest in the upgrade and would not need Speedy Express to pay from their own pockets. Only then did Sun Lei agree.


    However, as for how to upgrade it to a level that can compete with Lechang Express, Xu Lin needed to carefully examine it.


    After Xu Lin¡¯s investigation, he found out that the reason for Xintao¡¯s fast delivery speed was that Xintao had enough warehouses, more delivery staff, and good welfare. Xu Lin told Sun Lei about this.


    With Blue Fox¡¯s investment, Sun Lei was naturally tempted to try upgrading. However, when he heard that their prices needed to be lowered rapidly, he began to worry again.


    Finally, after Xu Lin repeatedly promised that Blue Fox would make up for the difference, Sun Lei finally agreed.


    In order to show his sincerity, Xu Lin persuaded several investors to immediately allocate some funds to Speedy Express. He wanted to first upgrade Speedy Express by adding more warehouses. With more warehouses, the speed of delivery would naturally be faster. This way, they could retain more users.


    However, Xu Lin had overestimated Sun Lei¡¯s ability to get things done. The money had been transferred for almost ten days, but Sun Lei had only finished choosing the warehouses. He still had to renovate and purchase the goods.


    Xu Lin did not have time to wait for Sun Lei to dawdle and kept urging him to hurry up..

 Chapter 628 - Chapter 628: Yin Xun Is Back

    Chapter 628: Yin Xun Is Back


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    However, Sun Lei claimed that he did not have enough money and wanted more funds from Blue Fox. Xu Lin had no choice but to continue the board meetings.


    In the end, under everyone¡¯s unanimous decision, they allocated some more money to Speedy Express. They could not give the money to Speedy all at once, though. They would allocate Sun Lei another sum every time he completed a project.


    Although Sun Lei was a little worried that this decision was not very stable, he still accepted it in the end.


    By the time Yin Xun returned from her business trip, Speedy Express had yet to finish upgrading. At the moment, they were only lowering the rates, hoping to compete with Yin Xun¡¯s express delivery with a lower price.


    For users, cheapness was the most important thing. Although they knew that the express delivery was not good in many aspects, it was cheap and quickly attracted many merchants.


    Moreover, in order to increase activity, Speedy Express finally stopped giving Xintao merchants different treatment. Even Xintao merchants had the same price as others.


    This was also a huge advantage. In these ten days, Speedy Express was actually able to hold the upper hand. The few Blue Fox managers who had just benefited from the price thought that they could continue like this and not need to spend any more money to build the warehouses.


    What Sun Lei was worried about finally happened. He was afraid that Blue Fox would change its mind and stop the investment. Sun Lei said that if Blue Fox went back on their word halfway, they would directly sue them in court and no longer cooperate with Blue Fox.


    This was already considered a threat. If Speedy Express no longer cooperated with Blue Fox, then Zhongtong alone would not be able to bear as much traffic as Xintao¡¯s deliveries. Blue Fox had no choice but to continue supporting Speedy Express¡¯s reform.


    Regarding the changes made by Blue Fox, there was no response from Xintao.


    The investors were very pleased with themselves. They thought that Xintao finally had no more tricks to play. They felt that Yin Xun had run out of ideas and did not have to worry about her in the future. However, Xu Lin felt that something was amiss. He felt that Xintao was hiding something.


    Therefore, he paid more attention to Xintao and sent people to investigate Yin Xun¡¯s recent whereabouts.


    Not many people knew about Yin Xun¡¯s business trip this time. Cheng She knew about it, but he did not tell Si Fan about it. Si Fan thought that Yin Xun was worried about being suppressed by Blue Fox. Every time he called Cheng She to ask about Xintao, he would not forget to mock Yin Xun.


    In the afternoon, at the villa in the suburbs¡­


    Ever since Yin Xun left, Fang Yao had been counting the days. Yin Xun had said that she would be away for three to four days, but she had not returned for ten full days.


    Although he had been calling Yin Xun every day during this period, they barely spoke a few words each time he called.


    Also, how could a phone call compare to a face-to-face meeting? He had been rather absent-minded for the past few days.


    He even wondered if Yin Xun was really busy or if she had something else to do at the same time, such as finding a man. When he realized what he was thinking, he was amused by himself for actually worrying about such a thing.


    Originally, he could have sent someone to keep an eye on Yin Xun, but he did not want to do so. Perhaps, when Yin Xun returned, he could ask her indirectly.


    The butler had been watching Fang Yao¡¯s expression from the side. When he saw Fang Yao¡¯s somewhat defeated look, he kept laughing secretly.


    He did not expect that one day, his young master would also show such a childlike expression. He had taken care of Fang Yao for more than 20 years, but this was the first time he had seen him like this.


    He was sure that Fang Yao liked Yin Xun more than he knew.


    Fang Yao held his phone and looked at the caller ID. He wanted to call Yin Xun again. Yesterday, Yin Xun said that she would be back today or tomorrow. He did not know when exactly that would be. He wanted to call and ask but was afraid that Yin Xun would be annoyed if he called too often.


    The butler watched Fang Yao pick up his phone from time to time. Fang Yao would glance at it and put it down again. After a while, he picked it up again. The phone interface was always Yin Xun¡¯s contact number. The butler immediately knew what Fang Yao was thinking.


    He smiled and said, ¡°Young Master, I have not seen Miss Yin for a long time. 1 miss her. Why don¡¯t you help me call her and ask her when she will be back? We can send a chauffeur to pick her up. There were a lot of people at the airport and it might not be easy to get a taxi.¡±


    Fang Yao glanced at the butler indifferently and said, ¡°Since you miss her, I¡¯ll call and ask for you.¡±


    The butler nodded with a smile.


    He knew that Fang Yao wanted to make a call but was embarrassed. Nevertheless, he could not understand why Fang Yao was usually so fearless and seemingly infallible, yet he was so afraid to call Yin Xun.


    Since Fang Yao did not dare to make a move, he would help him. He really missed Yin Xun anyway.


    Seeing that Fang Yao was on the phone, the butler tactfully left.


    However, just as the butler reached the door, he suddenly said in surprise, ¡°Young Master, ATiss Yin is back!¡±

    Chapter 629: Everyone Gets Gifts


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao was stunned for a moment and quickly looked up. Indeed, Yin Xun was standing in front of a car and was talking to the driver.


    After the butler finished speaking, he rushed out quickly. Fang Yao immediately stood up and followed.


    When Yin Xun saw the butler, she smiled and said, ¡°Uncle Butler, long time no see. You came out so quickly. I bought some things and can¡¯t carry them all myself. Please call a few people over to help move them.¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡± The butler quickly agreed and ran back to the villa.


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me you were coming back so that we could have a driver could pick you up?¡± Fang Yao looked at the driver who was talking to Yin Xun, and his gaze darkened.


    This was not an ordinary driver. The person was Mary¡¯s younger brother, Mark.


    Fang Yao still remembered that Mark had said that he liked Yin Xun. Moreover, they were about the same age, only two years apart. Well, that was also two years younger than him, so he had an advantage in terms of age.


    Yin Xun turned around and saw Fang Yao walking toward her. She smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. After Mary found out that I was back, she asked Lil Mark to come and pick me up. He works near the airport, so it was very convenient.¡±


    At the mention of Mary, Mark¡¯s expression changed slightly. Yin Xun had not been looking at him, so she did not notice.


    Fang Yao spotted Mark¡¯s reaction at a glance and pondered for a moment.


    ¡°You work near the airport?¡± Fang Yao asked.


    A hint of nervousness flashed across Mark¡¯s face, and he nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. My sister helped me find a job.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded and did not say anything else.


    Seeing that Fang Yao had no intention of asking further, Mark quietly heaved a sigh of relief and turned around to help Yin Xun move her things out.


    Yin Xun turned around and took out a storage box from the car. It looked very heavy, and it took her a lot of effort to lift it. She turned around and handed it to Fang Yao. ¡°1 bought the things in this box for you. 1 can guarantee that you will like them. I¡¯ve always been freeloading food from you, but 1 always bring random gifts. This time, 1 had the chance to out and buy more things.¡±


    Seeing Fang Yao looking down at the box, Yin Xun added, ¡°It¡¯s nothing expensive, but what matters is that it comes from the heart. 1 hope you won¡¯t mind.¡±


    ¡°How could 1?¡± The corners of Fang Yao¡¯s lips curled up slightly. He did not expect Yin Xun to still be thinking about him when she was on a business trip. A warm feeling flowed through his heart.


    She had even brought him such a big box of gifts this time. It was obvious that there were many gifts. Yin Xun was really thoughtful.


    While the two of them were talking, the butler came out with some servants. He watched the interaction between the two of them and stopped the servants from moving forward.


    It was not until Fang Yao and Yin Xun finished talking that he asked the servants to go over and help. At the same time, he smiled and said to the two of them, ¡°Miss Yin, you and the Young Master really have a telepathic connection. He was just about to call and ask when you would be back. He wanted to pick you up from the airport, but we did not expect that would come straight to the door at that moment. You even brought a gift for our Young Master! You¡¯re so thoughtful. You have such a good relationship with him.¡±


    ¡°Of course, we¡¯re business partners.¡± After Yin Xun said that, she turned around and took out a large box to hand to the butler. ¡°Uncle Butler, this is a gift for you. I¡¯m not only close to Fang Yao, but I¡¯m close to you too. I haven¡¯t forgotten about you.¡±


    The butler was stunned for a moment. He took the box and quickly thanked her. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that you would still remember this old man. I am so touched. Thank you, Miss Yin.¡±


    While he was touched, he also felt a little awkward. He thought that Fang Yao was the only one who had a gift, but he did not expect that he would get one too.


    However, this was not the end. Immediately, Yin Xun took out three smaller boxes and placed them at the butler¡¯s feet. She said, ¡°Uncle Butler, these boxes are for everyone. There are still many more gifts in the car. I want to try to distribute them before dark.¡±


    ¡°There are still many more¡­¡± The butler glanced at Fang Yao. As expected, Fang Yao¡¯s gaze was filled with bitterness and he did not look very happy.


    He asked on behalf of Fang Yao, ¡°Miss Yin, could 1 know how many people you bought gifts for?¡±


    Yin Xun thought for two seconds and said, ¡°The employees of the company, my parents, my neighbors¡­ There are too many people.¡±


    ¡°Fortunately, they are all close family and friends,¡± the butler muttered.


    Yin Xun checked the time. ¡°I can¡¯t talk to you guys anymore. i have to leave¡­¡±


    As soon as she said the word ¡®leave¡¯, Yin Xun suddenly thought of something. She walked over to Fang Yao and pulled him to the side. She leaned closer and whispered, ¡°By the way, I saw the report about Auntie speaking up for me. Help me tell her that i¡¯ll thank her properly in two days..¡±

    Fang Yao nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Yin Xun continued, ¡°I¡¯ve discovered another business opportunity in the past few days. It¡¯s simpler than online shopping, but it¡¯s more profitable. I¡¯ll keep you in suspense and tell you the next time 1 come back. If you want, I can give this project to you. If not, I¡¯ll keep it myself.¡±


    After saying that, she smiled at Fang Yao and turned around to get into the car.


    Seeing that Yin Xun was about to leave, he asked regretfully, ¡°Miss Yin, are you not going to eat dinner?¡±


    ¡°No, I¡¯ve been away for too long. My parents told me to come home for dinner. They¡¯ve already prepared it.¡± Yin Xun got into the car and finally stuck her head out of the car window to wave at Fang Yao. ¡°Fang Yao, I¡¯m leaving now. When I come back, I¡¯ll report to you the results of the battle these few days!¡±


    ¡°Okay, be careful,¡± Fang Yao smiled and said.


    After watching Yin Xun leave, the butler carried his gift and walked in front of Fang Yao. He even lifted the box in front of Fang Yao and said, ¡°Oh my, this box is too heavy. My old bones are almost unable to carry it. I don¡¯t know what Miss Yin bought for me that is this heavy.¡±


    Fang Yao rolled his eyes at the butler and said coldly, ¡°Since you can¡¯t carry it, then don¡¯t bother. Just give it to me. I¡¯m young and I¡¯m not afraid of a little weight.¡±


    ¡°That won¡¯t do. This is a gift that Miss Yin gave me.¡± The butler could tell that Fang Yao was not in a good mood, so he stopped joking and comforted him instead. ¡°Young Master, although Miss Yin has given everyone a gift, she gave it to you first. So, you are still the most important person in her heart. Don¡¯t worry.¡±


    Fang Yao glanced at the servants who were moving things into the house and said, ¡°I was the only one here at the moment. If you were there, you might have been the first.¡±


    The butler,¡±¡­¡± What he said made sense.


    Suddenly, the butler thought of the chauffeur who seemed to be very familiar with Yin Xun. He asked Fang Yao worriedly, ¡°That driver just now was Miss Yin¡¯s friend, right? 1 saw them talking and laughing, and they seemed to be pretty close.¡±


    Fang Yao nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. He¡¯s Yin Xun¡¯s assistant¡¯s younger brother. We rescued him when he was kidnapped last time.¡±


    The butler said anxiously, ¡°Young Master, Miss Yin is so outstanding. There are too many people with their eyes on her. I think it is best for you to express your feelings as soon as possible. What if you are one step too late? Now, even Madam is no longer against Miss Yin. This is your best chance.¡±


    Fang Yao smiled helplessly. ¡°It¡¯s okay, Butler. You don¡¯t have to worry about me. Let¡¯s wait a little longer. We¡¯ll talk about it after Yin Xun completes her goals. Actually, Yin Xun seems to treat me differently. If I¡¯m not wrong, she might be feeling some things too¡­¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s nice to you? Are you talking about you being the first one to get a gift? Then you¡¯re too easy to please,¡± the butler snapped angrily.


    After Yin Xun put everything back in the villa, she took Mark¡¯s car and rushed to the company.


    She had not gotten off work yet. She had to go back and understand the current situation before going home. Mark and Mary could go back together later. Her car was at the company, so she could just drive her own car back.


    When they arrived at the company, Yin Xun asked Mark to look for Mary and bring her the gifts she had bought for her.


    Yin Xun brought her stuff directly to Mi Jin¡¯s office and found Cheng She there as well. The two of them were sitting in front of the computer and discussing something.


    Hearing the sound of the door opening, the two of them turned around and saw Yin Xun entering.


    ¡°President Yin, you¡¯re back already?¡± Cheng She asked in surprise. At the same time, he quickly got up to help Yin Xun carry her things. The box that Yin Xun was carrying looked very heavy.


    ¡°Why not?¡± Yin Xun asked. She placed the box on the ground and opened it. She took out a beautifully wrapped box and handed it to Cheng She. ¡°This is a gift for you.¡±


    She took out a bottle of shampoo from the box and handed it to Mi Jin. ¡°This is for you. I know that programmers tend to lose hair easily. This is for hair growth. 1 heard that it¡¯s especially effective.¡± Yin Xun looked at Mi Jin¡¯s receding hairline. ¡°I think you can use it immediately.¡±


    When Cheng She heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, he could not help but burst out laughing.


    ¡°Don¡¯t just laugh at me. Look at your own present.¡±


    ¡°President Yin¡¯s gift must be something good¡­¡± Cheng Shi opened the gift and took out a thermos flask and a bag of wolfberries. He looked at the gifts and did not finish the sentence.


    ¡°1¡¯11 need your help in many areas in the future,¡± Yin Xun said to him with a smile. ¡°So, I¡¯m giving you some things to help you with overtime.¡±


    This time, it was Mi Jin¡¯s turn to laugh.


    ¡°President Yin, there has been a lot of activity on Blue Fox¡¯s side these past few days. Do you want to hear about it now?¡± Cheng She asked..

    Although Yin Xun¡¯s gift was a little¡­ hard to put into words, she was a pretty eccentric person anyway. He was just touched that Yin Xun would think of him when he went out.


    If it was Si Fan at this moment, not picking on him or scolding him would already be the greatest kindness. A gift was out of the question; he did not dare to ask for more.


    Cheng She was feeling more and more touched. He quickly reported to Yin Xun so that he could hide his emotions.


    ¡°Are you talking about the rumors or Speedy¡¯s price war? I¡¯ve heard a little.¡± Yin Xun said.


    Mi Jin, who was at the side, interjected hatefully, ¡°It¡¯s more than that. I didn¡¯t expect that Blue Fox would even resort to creating dirty rumors in order to mess with us. Their key method was to spread rumors. They actually dared to implicate Fang Yao. Did they think they could insult Fang Yao without legal repercussions? 1 bet even they didn¡¯t expect that the Fang family with appear instead of you. After being warned, they obediently went back to using proper methods.¡±


    ¡°Also, I found out that they have been investigating Xintao¡¯s express delivery recently. Perhaps they realized that our operation method was very successful. I heard that in order to catch up with us in terms of express delivery, Blue Fox is also increasing their warehouses and distribution manpower. Oh yes, the express delivery they chose was Speedy,¡± Cheng She added.


    Yin Xun had heard everything Mi Jin said from Yin Cheng already.


    As for what Cheng She said about Blue Fox¡¯s delivery, she just found out now. ¡°Increasing their warehouses?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows in surprise. ¡°But 1 remember that the express delivery company of Blue Fox¡¯s CEO, Le An, is called Zhongda. Normally, he should invest in Zhongda. Why did he invest in Speedy, which has nothing to do with him? What happened? Tell me in detail.¡±


    ¡°I heard that Blue Fox was the one who took the initiative to cooperate with Speedy. As for why they didn¡¯t choose Zhongda, I¡¯m not sure either. However, Blue Fox invested a lot of money in Speedy. Originally, Speedy wanted them to buy the unit directly, but Blue Fox refused, so they could only rent it¡­¡± Cheng She told Yin Xun everything he knew. He had heard all this from Si Fan.


    After reporting everything, he sighed in his heart. He was becoming more and more skilled as a double agent.


    ¡°I see.¡± After hearing Cheng She¡¯s words, Yin Xun immediately understood what Blue Fox was doing. ¡°Right now, they¡¯re in the testing phase. Don¡¯t look at how the express delivery companies usually act harmoniously. They¡¯re actually doing this for profit. The reason why Blue Fox chose Speedy and not to invest in Le An¡¯s Zhongda is that they¡¯re afraid that something would go wrong halfway and affect Zhongda.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s their style to let others bear all the risks.¡± Cheng She nodded. ¡°However, they are also expanding the warehouse. If they succeed, I¡¯m afraid they might really steal our business.¡±


    ¡°Storage units are very expensive now. Actually, buying it isn¡¯t too much more expensive than renting it for a long time. If 1 were Speedy¡¯s boss, 1 would definitely insist on buying the unit. Society is developing so fast now, and housing prices will soon soar. Soon, even the rent will definitely rise. Moreover, Blue Fox can¡¯t keep investing in Speedy. Once the capital chain was broken, it would be a fatal blow to Speedy.¡± Yin Xun analyzed calmly.


    iQn


    He told Yin Xun about this so that she could think of a way to deal with Blue Fox. Why was she suddenly so emotional?


    ¡°President Yin, we shouldn¡¯t be focusing on this right now. Shouldn¡¯t we be thinking about how to deal with Blue Fox? It¡¯s obvious that they¡¯re declaring war on us.¡± Cheng She said helplessly, ¡°By the way, I¡¯ve already collected the evidence you asked me to collect. However, the Fang family has already taken action to resolve this matter. Do you still want it?¡±


    ¡°Yes, send them to me later.¡± Yin Xun said with a smile, ¡°Don¡¯t worry about that. Their little change is no threat to us. Don¡¯t forget, we¡¯ve been improving too. 1 was on a business trip this time to prepare an upgrade.¡±


    Cheng She was surprised. ¡°Xintao Express Delivery is already good enough to have same-day deliveries. How can we upgrade it?¡±


    ¡°You will understand in the future. After all, your identity¡­lt¡¯s not appropriate to tell you now,¡± said Yin Xun with a smile.¡±


    Mi Jin was here at the moment, so Yin Xun did not explicitly mention Cheng She¡¯s identity as a spy. However, Cheng She¡¯s expression instantly fell when he heard the words.


    Yes, he was undercover now, so he could not know about the important plans of the company..

    Yin Xun saw that the double agent was unhappy and quickly comforted him, ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. After all, these things will be for you to work on eventually. But I¡¯m not here to ask about work today. I¡¯m mainly here to give you gifts. If there¡¯s anything else, we¡¯ll talk about it tomorrow. There¡¯s no need to rush.¡± As she spoke, Yin Xun took out a few large bags of local specialties from the box and handed them to Cheng She. ¡°These are all local specialties that I brought back. They¡¯re very delicious. I¡¯ll leave some for you. Alright, you guys continue working hard. I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    ¡°President Yin, I¡¯ve also finished testing the game. It¡¯s basically fine, so we can go online now,¡± Mi Jin suddenly said.¡± Cheng She and I were testing the game just now.¡±


    ¡°Alright, 1 understand.¡± After saying that, Yin Xun left.


    Yin Xun was about to go to her car with the box in her arms when he saw Mark at the door.


    Mark also saw her. He immediately put on a smile and walked quickly to Yin Xun. ¡°Sister Yin Xun, why don¡¯t I send you back?¡±


    As he spoke, he reached out to take Yin Xun¡¯s box. Yin Xun moved aside and was about to say something when she saw Mary walking over quickly.


    ¡°You little brat, you ran away the moment I took my eyes off you. How many times have I told you not to disturb President Yin!¡± Mary walked over and pulled Mark by the ear.


    He cried out in pain, but he did not dare to struggle. He could only bend over and bear it.


    Mary smiled and said to Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, thank you for your gift. I like it very much. You can continue with your work now.¡±


    ¡°Alright.¡± Although Yin Xun did not know what was going on, she knew that the siblings were fighting when she saw Mary¡¯s forced smile.


    This was Mary¡¯s family matter. Yin Xun had no intention of interfering and left immediately.


    Seeing Yin Xun leave, Mary grabbed Mark¡¯s ear and dragged him out of the office.


    After finding a place with no one around, Mary said, ¡°You¡¯re getting too bold. You actually dare to get in the way of President Fang¡¯s relationship! I know what you¡¯re thinking. I advise you to stop. You know what kind of people we are. Do you think President Yin will like you?¡±


    Mark broke free from Mary¡¯s grip and sat on a stone beside him. He said indifferently, ¡°I don¡¯t have any other motives. It doesn¡¯t matter if Sister Yin Xun likes me it not. I¡¯m just doing what I should. After all, I¡¯m repaying my savior.¡±


    ¡°Repaying?¡± Mary laughed coldly. ¡°Do you really believe that? I didn¡¯t ask you to go to the airport to pick up President Yin today. It¡¯s fine if you went alone, but you even dragged me along. Also, when did you find a job near the airport?¡± ¡°Haha¡­¡± Mark smiled awkwardly, then got up and ran away when Mary was not paying attention.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Mary almost crushed the ground in anger.¡± This brat got spoiled by Mom. He doesn¡¯t do anything all day and only thinks about stupid things.¡±


    Every time she talked to Mark about serious matters, he would slip away. He was already an adult, but he still needed her to support him financially.


    She had wanted to run after him, but he had gotten too far away. She would love to give him a good warning, but unfortunately, she was wearing high heels and could not catch up with him. She had no choice but to give up.


    Yin Xun carried the box to the parking lot. After packing everything up, she drove straight to the Yin residence.


    When she arrived at the neighborhood, Yin Xun was not in a hurry to go to the house. Instead, she went to the neighbors she was familiar with and gave them the specialties she had brought.


    Although it was not very valuable, the neighbors looked very pleased after receiving it.


    Some of the neighbors even gave Yin Xun some of their own stuff after receiving her gifts.


    Yin Xun had brought a box full of things with her, but after she had finished distributing the gifts to the neighbors, she now had another box full of things. ¡°Sure enough, the commoner characters are kinder and easier to get along with. Perhaps it¡¯s because there was no framework by the author for them?¡± Yin Xun sighed when she came out.


    After passing the gifts to the neighbors, Yin Xun returned home.


    Wu Li and Yin Cheng knew that Yin Xun would be back today, so the two of them had been waiting at home early.


    Wu Li had even specially asked someone to prepare a meal in advance. It was all Yin Xun¡¯s favorite food.


    When they saw Yin Xun, Yin Cheng kept his calm, but Wu Li was so excited that she was about to tear up.


    There were originally three children in the family. One cut off ties with the family for the sake of an outsider, and the other went to work at the construction site to train himself. Currently, Yin Xun was the only one who could meet them at home. However, Yin Xun had been on a business trip for ten days. Wu Li had been thinking about the children during this period. Now that she saw Yin Xun return, she could not hold back her excitement..

    Yin Xun took out the things that she had prepared for her parents. When Yin Cheng and Wu Li saw what Yin Xun took out, the excitement on their faces was suddenly mixed with a tinge of embarrassment. Wu Li¡¯s mouth even twitched.


    Yin Xun had given Yin Cheng some fast-acting heart-relief pills and Wu Li a small night lamp with musical functions.


    In addition, there was also a large pile of local specialties and stuff brought over from the neighbors.


    ¡°Xun, this¡­¡± Yin Cheng held the bottle of heart relief pills with a conflicted expression. He did not know what to say.


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Oh, right. Dad, in order to prevent you from getting angry again in the future, I bought this for you. It¡¯s very useful. You can take two pills if there¡¯s a serious situation. It can save your life.¡±


    Yin Mo would never change. What if Yin Mo came back to look for Yin Cheng and Wu Li one day when Yin Xun was not at home?


    Yin Cheng,¡±¡­¡±


    Should he thank his little darling for her thoughtfulness?


    Yin Xun then said to Wu Li, ¡°Mom, there aren¡¯t many people at home recently. Aren¡¯t you afraid of the dark? This small night lamp has a calming effect. You can turn this on at night whenever you¡¯re alone at home next time.¡±


    Wu Li mumbled, ¡°Actually, I¡¯d rather have you guys by my side¡­¡±


    ¡°I promise that I will come back to accompany you whenever 1 have time in the future! By the way, Mom, do you like small animals?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Wu Li nodded. ¡°I like them.¡±


    ¡°Oh.¡± Yin Xun thought of a way to combat Wu Li¡¯s loneliness.


    Although the gifts were not expensive, they were definitely useful.


    Putting aside anything else, just the sincerity alone made Yin Cheng and Wu Li extremely moved. Their other two children had never given them any gifts.


    However, Wu Li suddenly thought of something. She held Yin Xun¡¯s hand and asked softly, ¡°Xun, apart from us, did you get gifts for anyone else this time?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Yin Xun nodded. ¡°But don¡¯t worry. They¡¯re all as happy as you are. If I¡¯m good at anything, it¡¯s giving people gifts. I know what everyone needs.¡±


    When she heard that Yin Xun was sending out gifts according to everyone¡¯s needs, Wu Li could not help having negative thoughts.


    Although Yin Xun spent a lot of effort in choosing a gift, others might not like what she brought. Yin Xun was their daughter, so they were happy as long as her intentions were good. However, outsiders were different. Who would want a cheap gift?


    However, Yin Xun claimed that they were all happy¡­ Did they really? Wu Li was a little doubtful about this.


    Yin Xun pushed a box of things she had received from the neighbors in front of Wu Li and said, ¡°Here, this is something from the neighbors.¡±


    Wu Li looked at the box full of things and immediately understood.


    ¡°It seems that your friends are quite cultured.¡± Wu Li sighed. She did not know if she should give Yin Xun a reminder. If she did not say something, she was afraid that Yin Xun would be misunderstood in the future. If she spoke now, however, she was afraid that she would hurt Yin Xun¡¯s feelings.


    Yin Cheng could tell what Wu Li was thinking and said proudly, ¡°What kind of person is my daughter? She¡¯s the boss of Xintao. Even Madam Fang personally spoke up for her. Who wouldn¡¯t appreciate getting a gift from her? Even if they don¡¯t like what they got, they¡¯d have to pretend that they like it!¡±


    Wu Li glared at Yin Cheng helplessly but did not say anything.


    The family chatted for a while longer before starting to eat.


    During dinner, Wu Li said sadly, ¡°If only Lil Rui were here. Our family would be reunited. Sigh, 1 wonder how he is now. Is he homesick?¡±


    As she spoke, Wu Li looked at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Why don¡¯t I go and visit him one day? We haven¡¯t seen each other for so long, and he didn¡¯t say that he would call back home. 1 don¡¯t know how he is doing now.¡±


    Actually, she wanted to ask if Yin Rui could come back, but she knew that Yin Xun would not agree.


    ¡°Mom, 1 know what you¡¯re worried about. Lil Rui has never suffered like this before. You¡¯re worried that he won¡¯t be able to adapt. But this time, he went to the construction site on his own initiative. Moreover, his school will start soon. Even if he wants to go out and work later, he won¡¯t have the chance anymore,¡± Yin Xun said. At the same time, she gave Yin Cheng a look.


    Yin Cheng echoed the sentiment. ¡°That¡¯s right. He¡¯s already an adult. So what if he suffers a little? It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know what he was like in the past. He can anger people to death. If he can really persist at the construction site until school starts, it means that he has done something good. If he can endure such hardship, what else can harm him in the future?¡±


    When Wu Li saw that Yin Xun and Yin Cheng had reached an agreement, she knew that it was useless to argue. ¡°Alright, alright. Anyway, you two know how to manage things better than me. I don¡¯t care anymore..¡±

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Mom, how about this? i¡¯ll ask Lil Rui for his opinion. If he agrees and you¡¯re really that worried, I¡¯ll bring you to the construction site to take a look. You can also check out his living environment. What do you think?¡± Yin Xun moved closer to Wu Li and made the suggestion.


    ¡°Alright, sure.¡± Wu Li was amused.


    After dinner, Yin Cheng called Yin Xun to the study. Wu Li knew that the father and daughter must have something important to discuss, so she did not disturb them anymore.


    ¡°I wanted to ask you about this when you first came back, but your mother was there, so I didn¡¯t. Blue Fox has been targeting you and has using all kinds of tricks. How are you faring? Do you need Dad¡¯s help?¡±


    ¡°Blue Fox always comes out in the open if they can¡¯t have their way in the dark. However, this also proves that they are indeed anxious since they can¡¯t beat me. Dad, don¡¯t worry. I can handle the current matter. 1 don¡¯t need your help for the time being,¡± Yin Xun said with a laugh.


    However, Yin Cheng was still worried. He frowned and said, ¡°I heard that Blue Fox¡¯s express delivery has started a price war. Other than lowering the prices, they seem to be learning from your delivery model and renting a lot of warehouses.¡±


    ¡°This is certainly a solid approach. Because of the low prices, many merchants from Xintao have begun to use their express delivery.¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°But, Dad, you¡¯re surprisingly well-informed. You even know about their rental of warehouses.¡±


    ¡°Because they rented our warehouse!¡± Yin Cheng said angrily. ¡°It was leashed out by my subordinates. When 1 found out, the deal had been finalized. If 1 had known that this was a plan that opposed Xintao, 1 wouldn¡¯t have rented it. But if it¡¯s a threat to you, I¡¯ll just compensate them for breaching the contract and stop renting it to them.¡±


    Yin Xun was surprised. She did not expect such a coincidence. Blue Fox had rented her family¡¯s storage unit. Things seemed to be getting interesting.


    ¡°Dad, just rent it like normal. What¡¯s wrong with making some money? If we refuse to rent it, wouldn¡¯t it be helping them if you give them compensation money? Moreover, our family isn¡¯t the only one who owns a warehouse. They can take that money and rent a warehouse from someone else.¡± Yin Xun smiled. ¡°It would be better to rent our warehouse. I thought they would not be smart enough to search for warehouses at all. Now, it looks like things are in our favor.¡±


    ¡°Blue Fox used our family¡¯s warehouse to fight with your express delivery and even stole many of our customers. Why don¡¯t you look worried, but rather happy?¡± Yin Cheng saw that Yin Xun was not worried at all when he tried to persuade her. He was puzzled. ¡°This is clearly a malicious competition. Xintao has only been established for a short time, and everything is still unstable. If you keep getting targeted, Xintao will not be able to develop in the future.¡±


    No matter how he thought about it, the current situation was not beneficial to Xintao. Putting aside anything else, Xintao had only been established for a short time, and nothing they had was mature enough.


    Especially in terms of express delivery. Yin Xun had just acquired Lechang Express not long ago. Blue Fox had been developing for many years. The few express delivery companies that worked with Blue Fox had all matured after many years of operation.


    Although he did not know much about the internet, all business was basically interconnected. He knew how much the future development of a newly established company would be impacted if it was targeted.


    ¡°If this continues, Lechang Express¡­¡± Yin Cheng was really worried.


    ¡± Don¡¯t worry,¡± Yi Xun said. ¡°The price war won¡¯t last long. Do you think Blue Fox or Speedy will be willing to suffer a loss? Blue Fox can¡¯t keep investing in Speedy Express at the current rate. Also, so what if they have more warehouses? I¡¯ll still say the same thing. Even if Blue Fox does the best in all aspects, 1 don¡¯t have to worry. One company can¡¯t eat up such a large market.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Cheng was still worried. ¡°How do you plan to deal with this?¡±


    He knew what Yin Xun meant. Even if there were a few more companies, it would be easy to still make money. However, the main problem now was that they were being targeted. Moreover, Blue Fox clearly wanted to destroy Xintao permanently.


    However, Yin Xun was not worried about this. She smiled and said, ¡°Dad, don¡¯t worry. Just watch. 1¡¯11 handle this matter well.¡±


    ¡°Alright, alright, alright. Since you¡¯ve said so, i¡¯ll wait to see the results.¡± Seeing how confident Yin Xun was, Yin Cheng did not ask any further.


    He had always known Yin Xun¡¯s ability. He believed that she would be able to handle it.


    That night, Yin Xun stayed with Wu Li at the Yin family¡¯s villa. She slept with her mother for the night and went to Xintao the next day.


    Yin Xun did not go to her office and went straight to find Mi Jin..

    Chapter 635: The Game Is Done


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When it was almost noon, Cheng She came over to look for Yin Xun, looking worried. ¡°President Yin, although I¡¯m sure you have your own reasons for doing things, this time, Blue Fox has really invested a lot. You see¡­¡±


    Although Mi Jin was next to him, Cheng She knew that Yin Xun trusted Mi Jin more than him, so it did not matter even if he said this in front of Mi Jin.


    Cheng She handed the information in his hand to Yin Xun and continued, ¡°1 just received news that their warehouse has been fully prepared and is expected to be put into use today. In addition, they also recruited a lot of new employees. It seems that they are also going to employ the method of delivering goods to the doorstep with maximum speed.¡±


    Speedy Express had already lowered their prices to the lowest. If they increased the speed too, then Lechang Express would have no way out.


    Although Xintao Express could compete with Speedy Express in terms of speed, Xintao Express was expensive and small in scale. It was impossible for it to bear too much delivery traffic.


    Yin Xun took the document and flipped through it. It was indeed as Cheng She had said. According to the current situation of Speedy Express, they were going to compete with Xintao Express.


    The speed was fast and the price was low. It was obvious that they were trying to rope more people in.


    ¡°Also, the express delivery company has said that the price will not increase for another year. Blue Fox has many investors now, all of them industry giants. The amount of money they forked out was enough to sustain Speedy Express for a long time. This time, Speedy Express has full confidence. When all the users transfer to Speedy, what will happen to our Lechang? Xintao Express doesn¡¯t have the advantage in terms of price.¡± Cheng She expressed his concern.


    Although he knew that Yin Xun was rich, no matter how rich she was, she could not spend so much money to challenge Blue Fox. If she really did this, the final result would only be beneficial to Si Fan.


    He had more or less completed his mission, which was to cause both Blue Fox and Xintao to suffer heavy losses.


    However, after spending time with her, he did not want to make things difficult for Yin Xun.


    ¡°Whatever. Since they¡¯re so rich, let them use their money. We won¡¯t burn money with them. Look at how Blue Fox is spending on events and express delivery. If they have this much money, they can spend it like this. We have to spend money on our weapons,¡± Yin Xun said indifferently.


    Upon hearing Yin Xun¡¯s words, Mi Jin could not help but burst out laughing.


    Immediately, Cheng She and Yin Xun both looked at him. Mi Jin coughed awkwardly and said, ¡°President Yin, to think you¡¯re mocking Blue Fox for burning money¡­¡±


    Back then, the success of Xintao relied on Yin Xun¡¯s money-burning strategy as well.


    Now that he heard Yin Xun talking about Blue Fox, he felt as if Yin Xun was talking about her past self. He suddenly found it funny and could not help but laugh out loud.


    Yin Xun knew what Mi Jin meant. She smiled and did not explain further.


    ¡°Mi Jin, how are the preparations going?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    Mi Jin¡¯s expression immediately turned serious as he replied, ¡°It¡¯s all ready. You can go online at 12 o¡¯clock sharp!¡±


    ¡°Very good. Then wait a few more minutes. We¡¯ll see the results soon,¡± Yin Xun looked at Cheng Shi and said.


    Cheng She was puzzled and looked at the two of them in confusion. What were they talking about? What was going online?


    Could it be that Yin Xun was finally cautious of his identity and did not dare to let him know?


    ¡°Have you seen any advertisements recently?¡± Yin Xun suddenly asked Cheng She.


    Cheng She shook his head. ¡°What¡¯s the point of watching advertisements? I¡¯ve been working on the game recently on top of watching Blue Fox. Oh, right, President Yin, I forgot to mention something when I came over. The game is already done, and we can go online at any time. Also, the map navigation system is almost done. We are just waiting for your final confirmation.¡±


    Hearing Cheng She¡¯s report, Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Very good. Then let¡¯s set it to go online in three days. Also¡­¡± Yin Xun asked after some thought, ¡°The response to the game characters was pretty good, right?¡±


    ¡°Yes, our game¡¯s settings are pretty advanced. Currently, most of the games on the market are card games. We¡¯re the first to release 3D characters, so we¡¯re looking forward to it. Because of the large amount of discussion, it has been on the trending searches many times, but we didn¡¯t even spend a single cent on advertising¡­¡± Cheng She glanced at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Actually, you¡¯re the reason why there¡¯s so much discussion¡­¡±


    Yin Xun immediately understood what Cheng She meant. Because of the rumors and Lin Chan¡¯s help, everything related to Yin Xun became trending, including the game. Was this actually a blessing in disguise?


    ¡°In that case, we definitely can¡¯t miss this opportunity to promote. Let¡¯s hold a game conference,¡± Yi Xun said with a smile. ¡°We can use the popularity that Blue Fox has presented us.¡±


    Cheng She looked at Yin Xun in shock. Yin Xun was acting really calm.. If Blue Fox found out about this, would there be another management meeting?

 Chapter 636 - Chapter 636: A Beautiful President

    Chapter 636: A Beautiful President


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Just in time,¡± Yin Xun instructed. ¡°When you go back later, contact the publicity department and do a simple publicity event before the press conference begins. Lin Zhu and the others can also promote the game. It would be best if they could mention it during the live broadcast and introduce the game¡¯s content.¡±


    ¡°Alright,¡± Cheng Shi said. He looked Yin Xun up and down and asked, ¡°President Yin, there¡¯s something I want to say, but I¡¯m not sure if 1 should.¡±


    ¡°If you¡¯re asking, you must really need to say it.¡± Yin Xun nodded.


    Cheng She placed his hand on his chin and looked at Yin Xun as if he was organizing his words. He thought for a moment and finally said, ¡°President Yin, there has been a lot of discussion about you on the internet recently. With that rumor and the Fang family¡¯s statement, I think everyone would want to see you in person. You¡¯ve never appeared in front of the media before, so you¡¯re very mysterious. If this press conference was hosted by you personally¡­ 1 think the effect will double.¡±


    ¡°Me, hosting?¡± Yin Xun was surprised. She had never thought of this.


    Cheng She sounded a little excited now. ¡°That¡¯s right. Usually, the project¡¯s press conference is hosted by the person-in-charge, just like the Zhenku press conference last time. If you go, the media will promote a female CEO who¡¯s beautiful and talented. She created her own game, Short Videos, and an online shopping company at a young age. She¡¯s so outstanding that she¡¯ll be envied and be the subject of many rumors.''¡±


    After thinking for a moment, Cheng She added, ¡°But the beautiful CEO is unfazed by all this. She solved all the problems calmly and didn¡¯t even pursue the matter of the rumors. Instead, she worked hard to improve her company. Who wouldn¡¯t admire such a low-key and cultured person? Besides, there¡¯s no need to establish a persona. You¡¯re this kind of person, to begin with. 1 believe that as long as you host this press conference, we won¡¯t even need to do our own marketing. The media will naturally report about you, and then you can use this opportunity to become famous!¡±


    While Cheng She continued speaking, Mi Jin and Yin Xun frowned.


    ¡°No!¡± Yin Xun and Mi Jin said in unison.


    Cheng She looked at the two of them in confusion and asked, ¡°Why not?¡±


    Yin Xun was also puzzled as to why Mi Jin would reject the idea so straightforwardly. She asked, ¡°Yeah, Mi Jin. Why would you reject the idea?¡±


    Mi Jin¡¯s expression was slightly awkward. He coughed lightly and said, ¡°President Yin has never been interviewed by the media. Although there were some rumors a while ago, she has an aura of mystery in everyone¡¯s hearts. If President Yin shows up too much, it will destroy this sense of mystery.¡±


    ¡°Also, being famous is not a good thing. This means that President Yin¡¯s life will be affected in the future. All kinds of private information will be compromised. It is very likely that even her family will be in the spotlight at all times. Even a small matter in her daily life will be magnified infinitely.¡±


    What would happen after becoming popular? It was obvious when you looked at those big celebrities. They had no privacy at all. Even matters of hospitalization were under constant surveillance.


    These were not the most important things. More importantly, Yin Xun could no longer wander around alone in the future. She would have to bring bodyguards with her at all times.


    After all, a rich and beautiful person would be the primary target of the kidnappers.


    ¡°Actually, a company president is different from a celebrity. Celebrities need to rely on their popularity to make a living, but President Yin doesn¡¯t need to.¡± Cheng She did not agree with Mi Jin¡¯s point of view. He turned around and asked Yin Xun, ¡°President Yin, what do you think?¡±


    The reason why Cheng She was so insistent on letting Yin Xun show her face was because Si Fan had done the same thing back then.


    No matter what happened to Blue Fox, as long as the media came, Si Fan would show up and try his best to create a gentle and proper image of a young and promising man. He would even buy all kinds of trending searches about his positive image from time to time. Because he was naturally very handsome and his marketing was good, he was even known as a national male god.


    This was also the reason why Si Fan was popular among girls. He even had a group of fans who kept clamoring to marry him and have his children.


    However, these were just appearances. In reality, Si Fan was an egotistical person with violent tendencies. Only people close to him knew this.


    Those rich ladies who claimed to like him only liked the image Si Fan created.


    If they really got together, those rich ladies would have a change of heart. This was also why when Si Fan encountered difficulties, he frantically contacted those rich ladies who used to like him, but in the end, he did not manage to get any investors..

 Chapter 637 - Chapter 637: Express Delivery Supermarket

    Chapter 637: Express Delivery Supermarket


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Of course, all of this happened in the later stages. When Si Fan¡¯s reputation was still good, his fame had brought a lot of benefits to Blue Fox.


    It could only be said that there were both pros and cons. It all depended on Yin Xun¡¯s choice.


    ¡°I think your idea is quite good,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Cheng She was delighted. As expected, his suggestion was finally useful.


    However, Yin Xun continued, ¡°Since I¡¯m famous online recently, I¡¯ll just show up at the beginning of the press conference. I can make a simple introduction and leave the rest to the planner and the host. 1 don¡¯t need fame or to be known as a beautiful woman. Our company mainly relies on technology to capture users.¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡± Cheng She looked at Yin Xun with admiration. This was the confidence he wanted.


    As expected, Yin Xun was different from the others. Her state of mind was a few levels ahead of Si Fan.


    Si Fan had always relied on underhanded methods to win, while Yin Xun only wanted to rely on improving her own strength to win. This was the difference in their personalities.


    However¡­


    Cheng She was troubled. ¡°We can forget about the graphic designer for now. She doesn¡¯t seem to be very good at communicating with others. Even though she¡¯s in contact with me almost every day, she still trembles nervously when she talks to me. If she goes on stage, I¡¯m afraid she¡¯ll faint from nervousness.¡± ¡°President Yin, it¡¯s time!¡± While the two of them were talking, Mi Jin suddenly interrupted.


    ¡°Well talk about this later.¡± Yin Xun gestured for Cheng She to wait, then sat beside Mi Jin and looked at the computer screen with him. At the same time, she said, ¡°Take it online.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Mi Jin said and began to operate.


    Cheng She went over to watch. Since Yin Xun did not chase him away, it meant that he could watch too.


    The three of them squeezed together to look at the computer. Yin Xun felt that something was strange. She said to Cheng She, ¡°Take out your phone and log in to Xintao. That way, you can see the changes from there.¡±


    She looked at the computer to check the situation backstage, but Cheng She did not need to.


    Cheng She took out his phone in confusion and opened Xintao according to Yin Xun¡¯s instructions. A notification popped up. [Xintao Self-operated Supermarket. Delivery will take half a day. Everyone is welcome to place an order.]


    He clicked on it and was led to an introduction to the new project.


    After a rough look, Cheng She understood what this new project was about. It turned out that Yin Xun had traveled for a long time to create fresh food warehouses in various big cities.


    With this, if a user needed to buy a lot of fresh vegetables, they did not have to go out themselves. They only needed to choose what they wanted from Xintao Supermarket.


    If the location of the order was very close to the warehouse, it would only take two hours at the soonest.


    Although it was called a fresh food supermarket, it was actually the same as those large chain supermarkets. The items inside were not just vegetables and fruits, but there were also drinks, snacks, and other things.


    To put it simply, Yin Xun had moved a supermarket online.


    Cheng She looked at his phone in shock. He finally understood why Yin Xun was so confident when facing Blue Fox. It was because Yin Xun had been working hard to improve her company¡¯s services and win over the users!


    When Xintao was first established, Cheng She had accompanied Si Fan to fight against Yin Xun. At that time, Lechang Express had just been established and had been ostracized by several other express delivery companies.


    The other express delivery companies had always been cooperating with Blue Fox. Knowing that Xintao was Blue Fox¡¯s sworn enemy, they also made things difficult for Yin Xun.


    Since no express delivery company was willing to cooperate, Yin Xun founded Xintao Express herself and later acquired Lechang.


    Yin Xun was the pioneer of overnight delivery, and when Blue Fox imitated it, she created a half-day delivery. Not only did Yi Xun have countless of ideas, but she was also very capable. She did not have to worry about Blue Fox at all.


    The key point was that Yin Xun¡¯s project was entirely her own. On the other hand, there were many people in Blue Fox who had a say in their projects. As a result, there were often differences in opinions. Moreover, everyone had conflicting thoughts and was afraid that they would suffer losses.


    For example, in the matter of investing in express delivery, among the several express delivery companies that cooperated with Blue Fox, Zhong Da Express was clearly the largest holding company of Le An. He could develop Zhong Da into Blue Fox¡¯s exclusive express delivery. That way, he would not have to worry about future problems in the express delivery aspect.


    However, Le An was concerned that something would happen to Zhong Da Express, so he placed the test on Speedy Express instead.


    Under such circumstances, Blue Fox was prone to more problems.


    ¡°President Yin, your product includes so many services, and it has even started to sell things by itself. Don¡¯t tell me you plan to manufacture something yourself in the future too?¡± Cheng She asked..

 Chapter 638 - Chapter 638: Shaking Off Blue Fox Again

    Chapter 638: Shaking Off Blue Fox Again


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun thought about it carefully. Then, she replied,¡± That¡¯s a good idea. I¡¯ll think about opening my own factory after these projects are stable.¡±


    Cheng She,


    Actually, he was making a casual remark. If she really tried to do that, then Blue Fox might have no way to deal with Yi Xun.


    ¡°It¡¯s brilliant. President Yin, this move of yours is really brilliant.¡± Cheng She praised her sincerely. ¡°However, your newXintao supermarket is also delivered by Xintao Express, right? 1 feel that there should be no problems. All you did was build a few more warehouses in the areas that lack merchants.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Yin Xun laughed. ¡°Isn¡¯t Blue Fox starting a price war? Truthfully, Xintao Express is also playing a price war in disguise. It¡¯s just that it¡¯s not as crazy as Blue Fox. Because this time, Xintao Supermarket is selling our own things, so all the profits will go to us directly. Therefore, when users buy things up to a certain amount, we can give them free shipping.


    ¡°Previously, Xintao Express mainly made deliveries the next day, but this was only limited to those first-tier cities with warehouses. For the surrounding cities, they still had to wait another day. This time, I went out and expanded a few more warehouses. Although I still couldn¡¯t cover all the places, at least I could ensure that the surrounding cities could get their deliveries in the next day. The internet is still not developed enough. Let¡¯s wait a while more. When all the projects are mature, our speed will be faster and our service will be better.¡±


    Cheng She felt exasperated when he heard Yin Xun¡¯s words. Yin Xun was still not satisfied with the result. There was still room for development in her opinion.


    After all, Blue Fox had spent a lot of effort just to catch up with her previous results. As soon as Blue Fox made their move, Yin Xun immediately moved forward again. She was always two steps ahead of Blue Fox.


    ¡°President Yin, your improvement speed is unbelievable. You have already left Blue Fox in the dust. Now, you don¡¯t have to worry about Blue Fox surpassing Xintao at all.¡± Cheng She sighed.


    Yi Xun shrugged and said, ¡°I never intended to suppress Blue Fox. I just wanted to do my best to complete my projects. As for Blue Fox, they can play whatever games that makes them happy.¡±


    Cheng She was speechless.


    If the person in charge of Blue Fox heard this, he would probably be so angry that he would cough up blood. They tried their best to suppress Xintao, but in Yin Xun¡¯s eyes, they were just playing around.


    At this moment, Cheng She was thinking about how to resolve this matter from an undercover agent¡¯s point of view. In the end, he came to the conclusion that as long as Blue Fox stopped making trouble and did its own business, they would not be affected too much. On the contrary, if they kept aiming to defeat Xintao, something bad would happen sooner or later.


    However, this was exactly what Si Fan wanted. Cheng She even thought that if Blue Fox could completely close down, perhaps he could be free too.


    He felt that it was time for him to tell the truth. After all the things that happened recently, Yin Xun might really be able to help him¡­


    ¡°President Yin, the evidence regarding the rumors has already been gathered. I think that you should send a court summons to Blue Fox on a crucial day and sue them directly. Let¡¯s add insult to their injury. They must have noticed the commotion on our side by now. Perhaps they are thinking about how to counter it,¡± Cheng She said gloatingly.


    Yi Xun laughed. ¡°You used to be Si Fan¡¯s man. You¡¯ve been in Blue Fox for so many years. It¡¯s not appropriate for you to be so happy now.¡±


    Cheng She immediately stopped smiling. Yin Xun was right. He could not appear too happy. If Si Fan called him now and found out that Yin Xun¡¯s fight with Blue Fox made him happy, he would be finished.


    Si Fan wanted Blue Fox and Xintao to be involved in each other¡¯s downfall, not for Xintao to crush Blue Fox one-sidedly.


    ¡°However, your suggestion is very good. Maybe we can give it a try.¡± Yin Xun turned to ask Mi Jin, ¡°How¡¯s the situation now? Are there any other problems?¡± Mi Jin shook his head. ¡°We haven¡¯t encountered any problems yet. Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll be here watching.¡±


    ¡°Alright, thank you.¡± When Yin Xun saw this, she felt at ease with the new project. She turned to Cheng She and said, ¡°Let¡¯s continue talking about the game. You said that the graphic designer has problems with social anxiety?¡± Cheng She straightened his expression and said, ¡°Yes, so I think it¡¯s best if you go in person..¡±

 Chapter 639 - Chapter 639: Failed Again

    Chapter 639: Failed Again


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun shook her head. ¡°Let¡¯s ask her for her opinion first. If she really refuses to go on stage and there¡¯s no other way, we can change to someone else. As long as there was a chance, we should try to let her go. Our game¡¯s main focus is on exquisite style. This is her responsibility, so she understands that no one is more suitable than her.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll go back and tell her,¡± Cheng She said.


    He could not help but compare Yin Xun and Si Fan together. Yin Xun actually allowed her employees to choose.


    If this was Si Fan, he would even kidnap his employees if needed. His words were unquestionable.


    While Xintao¡¯s internal department was happy and harmonious, the situation on Blue Fox¡¯s side was pretty bad right now. Xu Lin was about to faint from anxiety.


    Although he had always supported Blue Fox and Xintao to develop peacefully in their own way, the higher-ups of the company insisted on competing and surpassing Xintao. This caused everyone¡¯s energy to be focused on the competition between the two companies.


    Xu Lin called for an emergency meeting. The investors could not come over, so they could only continue to make video calls.


    Perhaps because they were all busy, when one of them picked up, another might not. Sometimes, the call would finally get through before someone went offline again.


    These investors all acted like big bosses. Every time they were asked to have a meeting together, they had to be invited politely.


    After a great effort to get all the investors together, Chen Jue came up and scolded Xu Lin. ¡°Lil Xu, Le An has given you full responsibility for this matter. You have agreed to bear responsibility. With that being the case, you have to do everything well. You¡¯re always asking for meetings every two or three days. How can we accept this? We also have our own work to do!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. What important thing did you call us over this time?¡± Zhao Xian said unhappily.


    Xu Lin was being told off but he had no choice but to endure it. He tried his best to smile at the investors as he said, ¡°Dear directors, don¡¯t scold me right off the bat. 1 have important things to report now.¡±


    Hearing Xu Lin¡¯s words, the others finally quieted down. Xu Lin heaved a sigh of relief and told the investors about the upgrade happening in Xintao today.


    After everyone heard this, they fell silent.


    Liu Yi was the first to speak. ¡°That Yin Xun is something else. A young lady like her can actually have such courage to run a new project when the stakes are so high. I thought she was too scared to leave her sanctuary.¡±


    ¡°Our express delivery service has just been upgraded and has only been in business for a few days. However, Yin Xun has created a supermarket that sells a variety of things. Their service is fast and cheap. In the future, Xintao Express might steal customers from us again,¡± Zhao Xian said in a low voice.


    ¡°Then what should we do?¡± Xu Lin asked.


    He had always known what the investors wanted. They were fighting a price war because they wanted Xintao to participate. This way, they could find out how much Fang Yao supported Yin Xun.


    Anyway, Blue Fox had a lot of investors. One company would definitely not be able to defeat Fang Yao. However, if all these investors banded together, there was still hope.


    Furthermore, Fang Yao might not be investing too much in Xintao. Among the many companies that Fang Yao had invested in, Xintao was the smallest and weakest. They felt that Yin Xun must have used some tricks to rope Fang Yao into investing.


    However, despite all they did, Yin Xun solved all the issues by herself without Fang Yao¡¯s help. She had even successfully upgraded Xintao Express!


    On top of that, following the spread of rumors, the Fang family¡¯s Madam even personally appeared. This inadvertently created another wave of power for Yin Xun.


    Xintao had always been in a profitable state, while Blue Fox had yet to get their capital back.


    Their original goal was to suppress Xintao, so they did not think about making a profit for the moment. They were harming others without benefiting themselves. No, it could be said that they did not even succeed in harming others.


    ¡°Dear directors, the situation is like this. Our express delivery has just caught up with Xintao Express. Given that we don¡¯t have as many warehouses as Xintao Express, we¡¯ve about caught up with the price difference. No, we should have a slight upper hand. However, Xintao then opened an online supermarket. The speed of service they¡¯re offering is even more ridiculous. They claim that the fastest is two hours, and the slowest is half a day.


    ¡°Although there is a location restriction, if this project is successful, Xintao will definitely expand more. Have you noticed the problem? Every step of Xintao¡¯s development seems to be happening routinely and methodically. They¡¯re not affected by us at all. 1 don¡¯t think Xintao sees us as an opponent.¡± Xu Lin analyzed the situation and explained it to the directors..

 Chapter 640 - Chapter 640: New Project

    Chapter 640: New Project


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What exactly are you trying to say?¡± Chen Jue snorted coldly.


    Xu Lin said,¡± What 1 mean is that Xintao does not seem to be paying attention to Blue Fox¡¯s development at all. They just focus on their own projects.


    Actually, there¡¯s no benefit in fighting against Xintao at all. Right now, because our express delivery is so cheap, we¡¯ve been incurring losses. According to the agreement, we still have to continue this for a long time. I have an idea¡ªcancel this event immediately, restore the original price of the express delivery, and improve our company¡¯s service step by step according to the original plan. This way, the users will naturally come back to us.¡±


    ¡°Other than this, is there no other way to deal with Xintao?¡± Chen Jue said gloomily.


    Xu Lin shook his head. ¡°1 can¡¯t come up with anything yet. We just upgraded the express delivery service and don¡¯t have the ability to take the next step. If we continue to follow in the footsteps of Xintao, I¡¯m afraid we¡¯ll lose a lot of money.¡±


    Chen Jue thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, ¡°Xintao Express is self-operated. In other words, if there is a problem with anything bought from here, it can be directly blamed on Xintao. If we try another round of manipulating public opinion¡­¡±


    When Xu Lin heard Chen Jue mention public opinion again, he immediately had a headache.


    He hurriedly stopped him. ¡°Director Chen, please forget about the public opinion war for the time being. The opposition has already gathered all the information about the rumors that they spread to Yin Xun. They also claim that they can sue us. You have always been the one who handled this personally. If it¡¯s revealed that you¡¯re the mastermind behind this, you might have to go to court.¡±


    Just now, Xu Lin received news that Xintao¡¯s official account had released an announcement saying that they would investigate the matter of spreading rumors about their president.


    This incident had been wrapped up some time ago because of the Fang family¡¯s intervention, so he did not expect Yin Xun to bring up old scores again. If this was true, it would be a small matter for Chen Jue if he was called to the police for questioning, but it would be a big deal if Blue Fox lost face.


    Xu Lin complained in his heart. He had spent a lot of money to keep this incident under wraps. If it was dug up again, he would probably not be able to suppress it.


    Blue Fox had been discussing this plan for a long time. They could not use public opinion anymore. They also could not defeat Xintao with their own strength. Were they really going to be one step behind Xintao?


    The directors were very dissatisfied with this. They were already so old and had experienced much more hardship than Yin Xun ever had. In the end, they were somehow defeated by a fledgling girl. It was too embarrassing.


    Blue Fox¡¯s internal department was already in chaos because of this matter. Yin Xun had Dong Zi¡¯s information. Although he did not know the specific content of the internal discussion, he roughly knew that they were thinking of ways to deal with Xintao.


    After the call with Dong Zi, Yin Xun was in a good mood. When a person¡¯s state of mind is disturbed by the enemy, they have already lost. As for how Blue Fox planned to deal with Xintao, Yi Xun did not care at all.


    The day passed very comfortably. When it was time to get off work, Yin Xun drove back to the villa in the suburbs.


    As usual, after Yin Xun parked the car, she continued to go to Fang Yao¡¯s house for a meal and talked to him about the things that happened yesterday.


    After the meal, the two of them rested for a while before they began to discuss more serious matters.


    Fang Yao brought Yin Xun to the study. The butler brought a plate of snacks for Yin Xun. This time, he only greeted Yin Xun briefly before leaving. Before he left, he even closed the door gently.


    ¡°Fang Yao, I have a new project. Do you want to participate?¡± Yin Xun asked Fang Yao with a mysterious expression.


    ¡°What¡¯s the new project?¡± Fang Yao asked calmly.


    Yin Xun took out a proposal from her bag and placed it in front of Fang Yao. 1 realized that this world¡­ Cough, sorry. 1 think 1 told you about takeout before, right?¡±


    ¡°Did you?¡± He did not seem to have any recollection of this from all this time with Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun waved her hand airily. ¡°That¡¯s not important. What¡¯s important is that I went to several cities on that recent business trip. 1 realized that although the cities are very developed, they don¡¯t have a mature delivery system. The restaurant staff can deliver meals, but it is only limited to nearby places. If we set up a delivery company, we can let our customers eat all kinds of delicacies at any time.¡±


    ¡°You mean, something like a courier company where users choose their meals on the software and get it delivered to their doorstep by the staff?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows in surprise. Yin Xun was a business genius. She could even come up with something like this. ¡°But how can you guarantee that the customers will be able to get the same quality of food as being served fresh in the restaurant?¡±


    ¡°We can¡­¡± Before Yin Xun could finish, her phone suddenly rang..

    Chapter 641: Night Attack On The Warehouse


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    She gestured for Fang Yao to wait for a while before answering the call.


    The volume setting of Yin Xun¡¯s call was very low. Fang Yao could hear a voice, but he could not discern what was being said. However, from Yin Xun¡¯s expression, it did not seem to be good news.


    Yin Xun¡¯s face was a picture of surprise, then she looked completely bewildered. She seemed unable to react until she hung up the phone. Then, she looked at Fang Yao in a daze.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Fang Yao asked curiously.


    Yin Xun frowned as if she could not believe what had just happened. She paused for a moment before saying, ¡°Uh, just now, the warehouse manager of Xintao called me. He said that he caught a person who had caused damage to the warehouse. The person set fire to the warehouse and was caught by the security guards halfway. The manager called the police. Guess who the police found after they arrived?¡±


    Looking at Yin Xun¡¯s expression of disbelief, Fang Yao frowned slightly and replied, ¡°Could it be the management of Blue Fox?¡±


    Only the leaders of Blue Fox could make Yin Xun show such an expression. In addition, Xintao had been suppressing Blue Fox recently, causing the investors of Blue Fox to be very spiteful toward her.


    Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and did not answer. A moment later, a smile gradually appeared in Yin Xun¡¯s eyes.


    However, even though Fang Yao suggested that answer, he could not quite believe it. Especially when he saw Yin Xun¡¯s pleased look, he was even more puzzled. No matter how he thought about it, those people would never do such a thing. Could he have guessed wrongly?


    Despite the magnitude of the incident, Yin Xun was not angry. She even looked very happy.


    Fang Yao was about to speak again when Yin Xun finally spoke. ¡°That¡¯s right. I didn¡¯t expect you to guess correctly. It was really the management of Blue Fox. According to the manager, after being questioned by the police, they were revealed to be an investor of Blue Fox, Director Chen Jue. He actually tried to burn down a warehouse, which is clearly illegal. Even if he wanted to do this, can¡¯t he find some thugs to help? Back then, even someone like Yin Mo knew to ask for local thugs to help when she needed to do bad things.¡±


    Fang Yao was speechless.


    Yin Xun¡¯s first reaction was to feel sorry for Chen Jue and even think of a better idea for him.


    ¡°If Chen Jue heard you say tus about him, he would probably be fuming. How¡¯s the warehouse now?¡± Fang Yao asked with a smile.


    The fire in the warehouse was a big deal. If the things inside were damaged, then all the compensation must be paid by Xintao.


    ¡°It¡¯s alright,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile. ¡°The exterior of our warehouse has a fire protection layer. That¡¯s why the manager waited for Chen Jue to finish setting the fire before letting the security guard arrest him. Plus, there are surveillance cameras around, so he has no chance of escaping at all. Even if we suffered a loss, that guy is so rich, so naturally he¡¯ll be the one to compensate.¡±


    This matter was outrageous. Someone from the upper management personally went to sabotage the opponent and was caught red-handed. This would be hot news no matter how you looked at it.


    Hearing that the warehouse was undamaged, Fang Yao was relieved. ¡°That¡¯s good. But for him to do such a thing, he must be mad or drunk.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. After the investigation, they found that he had also hired people to spread the rumors about me. I have sufficient evidence. 1 gave him a warning before. Maybe he felt that it was embarrassing for someone like him to get a warning, and he was furious and a little drunk, so he came to the warehouse to take revenge.¡±


    ¡°Although he failed this time, this proves that Xintao has been targeted by them. In the future, we have to strengthen our defenses no matter what happens. Business wars in reality are not as flashy as those on TV. There can be real damage. Maybe one day, a car will hit you when you go out¡­ Creating ¡öaccidents¡¯ is also a very common method,¡± he said after pondering for a moment.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re right, 1¡¯11 be more careful in the future. However, this incident has also indirectly proved how much of a blow Xintao¡¯s upgrade is to Blue Fox.¡± Yin Xun smiled and sighed. ¡°Do these people have to be so angry? By always being ahead, I¡¯m giving them lots of knowledge. It¡¯s an easy task for them to just imitate me.¡±


    Fang Yao was speechless. ¡°You seem to be quite happy about this. What do you plan to do next?¡±


    Yin Xun thought for a moment and said, ¡°This is an opportunity that Blue Fox has given us. We have already warned Chen Jue before. Since he is still so persistent in fighting Xintao, who knows what he will do in the future? He can stay in the police station. In addition to this arson incident, I¡¯ll add another crime to his name¡­¡±


    Fang Yao immediately understood what Yin Xun meant. He chuckled. ¡°Do you need my help?¡±


    ¡°No need. Cheng She will help me deal with this.¡± Yin Xun smiled mysteriously at Fang Yao and said, ¡°After all, I¡¯m not the one who wants the leaders of Blue Fox to step down the most..¡±

 Chapter 642 - Chapter 642: Im Here To Save The World

    Chapter 642: I¡¯m Here To Save The World


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao thought about it. ¡°That would be Si Fan. He¡¯ll definitely ask Cheng She to seize this opportunity.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she called Cheng She and asked him if he knew about Chen Jue.


    Just as Yin Xun expected, not only did Cheng She know about the news, but he also asked Yin Xun not to let Chen Jue off easily. Yin Xun decided to hand this matter over to Cheng She and let him deal with it. Other than that, he also asked Cheng She to deal with the rumors.


    Cheng She agreed very readily. This time, Yin Xun had specifically turned on the speaker mode, so Fang Yao could hear their conversation. After hanging up the call, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.


    ¡°If nothing unexpected happens, perhaps Si Fan will make a move soon. Let¡¯s continue talking about the takeout project. Where were we?¡± Yin Xun smiled.


    ¡°We were discussing how to guarantee that the customers will be able to eat fresh food,¡± Fang Yao reminded her.


    ¡°Oh, yes, here¡¯s the plan.¡± Yin Xun stood up and sat beside Fang Yao. She approached Fang Yao and pointed out the designs.


    Yin Xun was so close that Fang Yao could even smell the faint fragrance on Yin Xun¡¯s body.


    It was rare for the two of them to be this close. Fang Yao was so lost in thought that he did not even hear what Yin Xun explained. His mind was blank, and he could only feel his rapidly beating heart.


    ¡°Fang Yao, did you hear what I just said?¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she turned to ask Fang Yao. However, she saw Fang Yao sitting there in a daze. She thought that she had not spoken clearly enough. ¡°If you don¡¯t understand, I¡¯ll explain again.¡±


    Fang Yao suddenly came back to his senses when Yin Xun called out to him. He lowered his head slightly and glanced at the contents of the proposal. He said calmly, ¡°I understood.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s expression was calm, but his slightly red ears betrayed him. Fortunately, Yin Xun was too focused on the discussion to notice. When Fang Yao came back to his senses, he continued to discuss the plans.


    According to Yin Xun¡¯s idea, they should start with a few trial sites to gauge the results.


    The internet was not very developed yet, and not everyone was using smartphones. At present, smartphones were only popular among young people and certain rich people. However, this delivery app could only order food through a phone, so even if it was made popular now, not too many people would be using this function.


    In addition, a map navigation system was also required to work with the delivery service. Xintao¡¯s map had not been tested yet, so this service could only be fully implemented after those tests were done.


    They could use this opportunity to build a few trial points first. If the results were good and everything was ready, they would go properly online.


    For the takeout testing, the distance between the customer and the merchant would determine whether the order could be made. They would try to maintain the food delivery time within half an hour. This way, the freshness of the food could be guaranteed to some extent.


    If customers wanted to eat a specific dish, they could search for a suitable shop on the platform. As long as the distance was appropriate, they could place an order. This way, it was possible for a customer to order from a shop that was even further away.


    Although Fang Yao had long known that Yin Xun was full of strange ideas, he was surprised again when he heard this new and practical method.


    In addition, there was another thing that had always puzzled him. Yin Xun always commented that the current Internet was not developed enough. From her words, she seemed to know what the Internet would be like in the future.


    ¡°You seem to know a lot about the development of the Internet.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and suddenly asked.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. According to the trend, the Internet will soon enter a turning point. From now on, it will develop in a straight line¡­¡± Yin Xun blurted this out without any thought. Halfway through her sentence, she realized that Fang Yao was looking at her thoughtfully. She realized that she had said too much.


    Seeing Yin Xun suddenly fall silent as if she had a sudden thought, Fang Yao frowned slightly. He had a feeling that Yin Xun was hiding something.


    This feeling had been there since they first met. However, as he got closer to Yin Xun, this feeling became stronger and stronger.


    He had once gotten someone to thoroughly investigate the Yin family. Everything seemed fine, but he felt that there was something wrong with Yin Xun. It was rare for Fang Yao¡¯s thoughts to fall into a strange loop like this; he could not get an answer no matter how hard he searched.


    ¡°Sometimes, with the way you seem to know everything like the back of your hand, 1 really wonder if you¡¯ve come from the future,¡± Fang Yao said half-jokingly.


    Yin Xun laughed dryly. ¡°Haha, you¡¯re good a making jokes. But I¡¯m not an ordinary person. Actually, 1 came from another world to save this world,¡± Yin Xun suddenly said seriously after a pause.


    Fang Yao,¡±¡­¡±


    Forget it, he was probably thinking too much..

 Chapter 643 - Chapter 643: Spoke Too Soon

    Chapter 643: Spoke Too Soon


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    She knew that Fang Yao would not actually believe her. This was also why Yin Xun did not explain it directly.


    Even if she told him directly, he would probably think that she was delusional. Therefore, for her own safety, it was better to keep the truth to herself.


    Heading back to the main topic, Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and asked, ¡°How is it? Do you want to take this project?¡±


    ¡°Why are you giving me such a good project?¡± Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.


    Yin Xun picked up some snacks on the table and examined them. The soft ones seemed like preserved fruits, but she had never seen such fruits before. It tasted sweet and sour in her mouth.


    After swallowing some, she said, ¡°Because you¡¯ve helped me a lot in the past, this project is a gift to you. Also, I know that you¡¯ve invested a lot in the video industry.¡±


    Other than that, another reason was that Yin Xun was currently in need of capable people. The few projects she was working on now had already overwhelmed her, so she did not have the energy to work on another project.


    Yin Xun knew that even if she did not start this project now, someone else would do it soon.


    The first person to do it would benefit the most. Since she could not do it, she would give this project to someone who could. She could also earn a favor at the same time. It was killing two birds with one stone.


    ¡°Of course, if you want to do this project, I¡¯ll invest in it too,¡± Yin Xun added. This way, she would also have a share of the profits from this project in the future.


    Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun¡¯s serious expression and felt a wave of warmth in his heart. He did not expect Yin Xun to offer him such a good project.


    Although he had loads of money already and did not need to spend energy on a new project, it was a different matter if Yin Xun requested it.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Fang Yao agreed.


    Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°Alright. If that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll make a plan for you when I get back. When the takeout service is ready, you can cooperate with my map navigation system. That way, the users can even track the location of their food at any time.¡±


    Fang Yao smiled and nodded.


    ¡°Since everything has been confirmed, I¡¯ll go back to get some sleep. If there¡¯s anything, feel free to contact me. I¡¯ll leave this proposal with you for now.¡± Yin Xun got up and covered her mouth as she yawned. It was almost midnight and she was very sleepy.


    ¡°I¡¯ll send you back.¡± Fang Yao also stood up.


    ¡°Sure.¡± This time, Yin Xun did not reject his offer and allowed Fang Yao to escort her back.


    ¡°By the way, how do you feel about the gift I gave you? Do you like it?¡± On the way back, Yin Xun suddenly asked.


    Fang Yao was stunned for a moment. He thought of the gift that Yin Xun had given him. There were local specialties in one big box, as well as a few books on the cultivation of flowers and plants. She had also given him a massive flower-themed jigsaw puzzle. However, it came unassembled and he would need to put it together himself.


    Fang Yao¡¯s mouth twitched slightly. When the butler saw his gift, he laughed for a long time and said that Yin Xun really saw him as a gardener.


    Initially, Fang Yao thought that the gift was as eccentric as it could be. However, when the butler opened his own gift and saw a pair of presbyopic glasses in the box next to a stack of local specialties, he was completely stumped. This time, it was Fang Yao¡¯s turn to mock the butler.


    Although the butler was not young anymore, he had sharp ears and eyes. He did not need those glasses at all. He did not expect Yin Xun to assume he needed presbyopic glasses. The butler was stupefied, but Fang Yao was delighted.


    Thinking of this, Fang Yao smiled helplessly and nodded. ¡°Very good. 1 like it very much.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s good. I was worried you wouldn¡¯t like it.¡± Yin Xun smiled with relief. ¡°1 was thinking that if you didn¡¯t like this kind of gift, 1 will get you something else next time.¡±


    Fang Yao,


    He spoke too soon. Could he change his mind now? However, when he thought about the nature of Yin Xun¡¯s gift, it seemed that even if she changed it to something else, it would likely not be anything better. Forget it, this was good enough. Anyway, the intention was the most important.


    As the two of them chatted, they soon reached the entrance of the courtyard. Fang Yao stopped and watched Yin Xun enter her house. ¡°Get some rest soon. Good night.¡±


    ¡°Good night.¡± Yin Xun waved at Fang Yao and turned to walk into the house.


    Fang Yao watched Yin Xun walk into the house and stood outside for a while before he went back. Before he got there, he saw the butler standing at the door and looking over.


    ¡°Young Master, it seems there is some progress in your relationship with Miss Yin. In the past, she did not let you send her home. This time, she even requested that you walk her home.¡± the butler said with a smile..

 Chapter 644 - Chapter 644: Do You Need Me To Fill In?

    Chapter 644: Do You Need Me To Fill In?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fang Yao glanced at the butler and said calmly, ¡°She asked me to send her back because she wanted to ask if 1 liked the gift she gave me.¡±


    ¡°What did you say?¡± Thinking of Fang Yao¡¯s expression when he saw her gift the other day, the butler could not help but laugh.


    ¡°I said that you liked yours very much, but your legs haven¡¯t been working well recently. Maybe it¡¯s because of old age, I said.¡± Fang Yao looked at the butler¡¯s gradually fading smile. A smile appeared on his lips. He continued, ¡°Yin Xun said that she would keep that in mind. It seems she plans to give you a walking stick-


    After saying that, Fang Yao walked straight into the house.


    ¡°!¡± The butler¡¯s face was filled with shock. He immediately raised his feet and chased after Fang Yao. ¡°Young Master, I only poked a little fun at you, right? Do you have to bear such a huge grudge? 1 believe my legs are in great shape. Why don¡¯t you tell Miss Yin¡­¡±


    As the butler entered the house, the voices heard from outside became softer and softer.


    Soon, the villa area fell into silence again. Only the lights in the houses were lit. Occasionally, there were security guards patrolling outside, which was quite reassuring.


    However, things were not so swell in another area.


    Chen Jue¡¯s incident had caused a huge uproar. Although it was in the middle of the night, with Cheng She adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes, the news of Chen Jue¡¯s arrest spread very quickly. It did not take long for it to rush to the trending searches.


    At this time, several of the investors were relaxing in their own homes. When they heard the news, everyone was shocked.


    They had only parted ways this same evening; they would never expect Chen Jue to cause trouble in such a short period of time. Moreover, it was something as serious as setting fire to Xintao¡¯s warehouse. Even though they had lived for decades and had a wealth of experience, they had no idea on how to deal with this matter.


    Apart from the shock, it was also embarrassing. Chen Jue was an adult, yet he acted so impulsively. He did not even bother to discuss it with them beforehand.


    When Xu Lin received the news, he understood the seriousness of the matter. He did not care that it was already midnight and quickly contacted some of the investors.


    After Liu Yi, Zhao Xian, and a few other investors saw the news of Chen Jue¡¯s arrest, they all turned off their phones. They already guessed that Xu Lin would contact them.


    No one responded to the video conference. Xu Lin called them one by one, only to realize that their phones were all turned off.


    He had no choice but to do nothing for now. He turned off his phone and went to sleep, trying to pretend that nothing had happened.


    In the end, because no one addressed the incident, it was trending all night, causing the story to ferment more and more. Eventually, it became a hot discussion on the entire Internet.


    [Are you kidding me? A director of Blue Fox set fire to Xintao¡¯s warehouse in the middle of the night? Am I seeing things or is there a mistake in the report? How could they do something illegal so blatantly?]


    [Oh my god, is Blue Fox¡¯s internal department that bad? Just because Xintao is a new company that¡¯s overtaking them, Blue Fox wants to destroy them? I remember the rumors about Xintao¡¯s president and their express delivery company. It was revealed to be Blue Fox¡¯s doing too. Since they couldn¡¯t sway public opinion, they resorted to physical violence! Do they actually have the mindset of ¡°killing the first place to claim the top spot¡±?]


    [It¡¯s not just me saying this, but Blue Fox really can¡¯t afford to play games anymore. That director is acting like a scoundrel despite being a mature adult. 1 heard that the president of Xintao is the same age as his son. After this, his son probably won¡¯t be able to show his face in front of his friends in the future.] [Blue Fox likes to play these dirty tricks. Don¡¯t you know? I used to buy things at Blue Fox, but because of the large number of packages, I somehow lost one. Every time 1 went to Blue Fox¡¯s customer service, they just said that they were handling my issue, but there was never any update. Anyway, I¡¯m disappointed in Blue Fox. From now on, I¡¯ll switch to Xintao!]


    This event continued to ferment on the Internet with great fanfare because it was once again related to the conflict between the two parties. The few stories from the past that Xu Lin had suppressed with great difficulty were now being dug up again.


    Blue Fox was being cursed by almost the entire Internet, while Xintao used this opportunity to promote itself and attract many new users. In addition to promoting Xintao, Cheng She also took this opportunity to promote his game. Mary did not waste the chance to promote Rhythm Short Videos either.


    With Chen Jue¡¯s sacrifice, all of Xintao¡¯s projects were being advertised for free.


    Faced with Xintao¡¯s aggressive advertising, the leaders of Blue Fox could only grudgingly head to the office for a meeting. This was no small matter. They could no longer continue the video conferences and needed to discuss things in person.


    When they arrived at the meeting room, they saw Si Fan.


    It was obvious that Si Fan had already heard the news.. He asked gloatingly, ¡°Is there someone missing in today¡¯s meeting? Do you need me to fill in for that position?¡±

 Chapter 645 - Chapter 645: No Need To Worry

    Chapter 645: No Need To Worry


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Le An, who had rushed over to attend the meeting, saw Si Fan¡¯s smug expression and said unhappily, ¡°If you¡¯re so free, I can arrange some work for you.¡±


    When Si Fan heard this, he sneered and left.


    Everyone sat in the meeting room and looked at Chen Jue¡¯s seat. At this moment, Chen Jue was being investigated in the police station. He had left such a huge mess for them to clean up. Everyone¡¯s eyes were filled with suppressed anger.


    ¡°Old Chen is usually a calm person. Why would he suddenly do such a thing?¡± Zhao Xian frowned. ¡°Didn¡¯t you talk to him alone yesterday? What did you say? Did you ask him to do this?¡±


    Xu Lin explained, ¡°Previously, the reason Xintao didn¡¯t react to our public opinion attack was because Yin Xun was on a business trip. The incident had blown up massively. The Fang family even stepped in. I originally thought that was the end of it. 1 didn¡¯t expect Yin Xun to bring this matter up again after she returned and she even personally gave Director Chen a warning. Director Chen was already suppressing his anger, and when he saw that our express delivery was being suppressed by Xintao, he must have acted rashly.¡±


    Xu Lin was also very aggrieved. Chen Jue was already an adult, but he did not even have self-control. If he had known earlier, he would not have told him the location of Xintao¡¯s warehouse. He did not expect Chen Jue to set fire to the warehouse himself!


    Liu Yi was not in a good mood either. He felt embarrassed that something so major had happened to Blue Fox. He frowned and asked,¡± Lil Xu, since it has already happened, it¡¯s too late to say anything. How do you think we should resolve this matter?¡±


    Blaming others would not solve the problem.


    ¡°I haven¡¯t changed my opinion. Regardless of the development happening in Xintao, we should fight steadily and not directly pick a fight,¡± Xu Lin said calmly.


    Zhao Xian was very dissatisfied with his idea. All of them discussed for a long time but still could not come up with a perfect solution.


    Le An had been listening to these people argue ever since he entered the meeting room. In the end, seeing that there was no conclusion, he finally spoke. ¡°Sun Lei will be here soon. Let¡¯s listen to his opinion.¡±


    Everyone stopped talking and sat there quietly, waiting for Sun Lei to come over.


    Not long after, Sun Lei rushed in, panting heavily. Zhao Xian frowned when he saw him. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you knock before coming in?¡± he asked.


    He hated people with no manners the most, especially people like Sun Lei, who came from an uncultured background and crawled their way up. He had the aura of a nouveau riche.


    ¡°The situation was urgent, so 1 didn¡¯t think about that.¡± Sun Lei smiled apologetically.


    Xu Lin briefly explained the situation to Sun Lei and asked if Sun Lei had any way to deal with Xintao.


    ¡°Recently, express delivery has been very popular. I¡¯ve also done a lot of research on Xintao. Everyone, take a look at this.¡± Sun Lei took out a USB drive, inserted it into the computer, and projected the contents on the big screen.


    ¡°Everyone, 1 haven¡¯t been idle recently. I¡¯ve been investigating the situation between Xintao and Speedy, and I¡¯ve come up with these results¡­ 1 know that something big has happened to Blue Fox and it has affected everyone¡¯s mood. But after you hear me out, you won¡¯t have to worry anymore!¡± He comforted them.


    Sun Lei said passionately, ¡°The current upgrade of Speedy Express was a huge success. We have managed to pull in many new users from Xintao, and there is still a growing trend. As for Xintao, they have been working hard to find ways to improve their services to attract users, but we don¡¯t need to do that. For users, as long as there are continuous upgrades, they will see it as a good platform. Therefore, as long as we keep following in the footsteps of Xintao and imitate their operating mechanism, we will soon be able to surpass them!¡± He firmly believed that there would always be an ending point for upgrading. Once Xintao did everything they could in all aspects, Blue Fox would shortly be able to do the same. Blue Fox was an old, established platform that operated on both computers and mobile phones. It had a large user base.


    On the other hand, Xintao had just started and was unstable in many aspects. It was only temporarily stronger than Blue Fox. Soon, Blue Fox would regain the upper hand.


    The reason Blue Fox could not keep up with Xintao was because Si Fan had acted recklessly back then. Now, with their joint efforts, Blue Fox¡¯s reputation was getting better and better, and victory was not far away.


    Sun Lei was so excited that his spittle was flying everywhere. Other than that, he also talked about the advantages Blue Fox and Speedy held.


    Since Chen Jue was in trouble this time, they should push him out of the picture and let him take all the blame. That way, Blue Fox would be mostly unscathed.


    ¡°So, according to what you¡¯re saying, we should remove Chen Jue from the investor list?¡± Xu Lin understood Sun Lei¡¯s words. He was suggesting to kick out Chen Jue.. Did he know what he was saying?

 Chapter 646 - Chapter 646: Public Perception

    Chapter 646: Public Perception


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Of course not,¡± Sun Lei said quickly. ¡°Even if 1 had such thoughts, I¡¯m in no position to suggest it. I meant that we have to choose someone to bear the responsibility for the current public perception. Everyone knows that this was done by Director Chen, so I¡¯m sure you all understand what I mean.¡±


    ¡°So you mean¡­¡± Liu Yi asked.


    ¡°The current public perception will have some impact on our Blue Fox, but it won¡¯t be very significant. Moreover, through the recent investment, the gap between us and Xintao is gradually decreasing. As long as we continue to invest, I can guarantee that it won¡¯t be long before we can surpass Xintao!¡±


    Xu Lin frowned. Sun Lei was obviously saying this to help his own express delivery. He was clearly afraid that Blue Fox would suddenly withdraw their investment and Speedy would not have any financial support in the future.


    However, the investors did not share the same concerns. They had been discussing for a long time, but still could not find a solution to their problem.


    Right now, the express delivery was their only hope for victory. In addition, Sun Lei had skirted around all the shortcomings of Speedy when he spoke. What he said sounded reasonable in the ears of the others. Everyone was actually a little tempted by Sun Lei¡¯s suggestion.


    Xu Lin sneered and countered, ¡°In reality, you just want to improve your own express delivery system. With our current predicament, investing in express delivery alone is not effective. We should calm down and find out where our weaknesses are in detail before improving. We shouldn¡¯t blindly invest in only express delivery.¡±


    ¡°Vice President Xu, it was your Blue Fox who took the initiative to invest in our Speedy in the past. You¡¯re not going to leave us for dead once you¡¯re done using it, are you?¡± Sun Lei said unhappily.


    ¡°Of course not,¡± Xu Lin explained. ¡°We can continue to invest, but we can¡¯t put all our resources into the delivery aspect. We should develop things in an all-rounded way¡­¡±


    ¡°My suggestion is to follow Xintao¡¯s footsteps. If you don¡¯t agree, are you saying you don¡¯t want Blue Fox to improve?¡± Sun Lei¡¯s expression was cold.


    Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was getting sour, Le An quickly said, ¡°What Boss Sun said makes sense. Let¡¯s do as he says for now. What do the directors think?¡±


    Liu Yi thought of what Liu Cheng had told him before he came. Blue Fox was being suppressed by Xintao in all aspects. If he continued to invest, it was very likely that he would lose everything in the future. Therefore, the best option was to not invest more money for the time being. He should wait and see.


    ¡°My daughter wants to start her own business. I have to allocate all my money to her recently. 1 don¡¯t have any extra funds now. You guys can go ahead and invest.¡± Liu Yi declined to invest.


    No one could argue against this reason, so they had to agree.


    In the end, other than Liu Yi, everyone else continued to invest. Sun Lei left with a smile after getting the investments.


    Only Xu Lin¡¯s expression was cold. No matter what he said, these people would not listen. He was almost beside himself with anger. However, he could not lose his temper. He only hoped that if something bad happened later, the company would not make him the scapegoat.


    After the meeting ended, Xu Lin decided to go back to work. Sun Lei came over to look for him secretly.


    ¡°Boss Sun, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Xu Lin frowned when he saw Sun Lei¡¯s mysterious behavior. He felt that Sun Lei was a little unreliable.


    Especially after what he said in the meeting just now, it was obvious that Sun Lei only cared about his own interests and did not care about Blue Fox¡¯s fate.


    Sun Lei walked to Xu Lin¡¯s side and whispered, ¡°Vice President Xu, 1 didn¡¯t mean to offend you in the meeting just now. The main point is that this investment is indeed a good opportunity for Speedy to turn things around.¡± Other than offering you an apology, 1 also want to discuss something with you. Why don¡¯t we work together?¡±


    Xu Lin was puzzled. ¡°How?¡±


    ¡°You see, Speedy is currently imitating Xintao¡¯s development. The results are great. As long as we persist a little longer, 1 can guarantee that we can surpass Xintao. However, the biggest problem at the moment is investment, and you¡¯re the person in charge of this. As long as you give the word, the investors of Blue Fox will give me enough funds. When the time comes, we¡¯ll split it privately¡­¡± Sun Lei made a gesture of counting money.


    ¡°What?!¡± Xu Lin was shocked to see this. ¡°Are you planning to take money from the investment?!¡± he asked.


    Sun Lei shrugged. ¡°We¡¯re not pocketing it for ourselves. We¡¯re splitting it between the two of us. Now is the prime time for Speedy to develop. There is a multitude of projects that need money, so it¡¯s easy to falsify the accounts.¡± ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that I¡¯ll expose this?¡± Xu Lin frowned. Sun Lei was being far too bold. He actually dared to approach him to discuss something like this..

    ¡°You don¡¯t have any evidence anyway. I¡¯m making a sincere offer, but if you don¡¯t want to, then pretend that 1 didn¡¯t say anything.¡± Seeing that Xu Lin did not agree, Sun Lei turned around and walked toward Le An¡¯s office.


    Seeing Sun Lei leave, Xu Lin sighed. If it was not for the commissions, how could he, a part-time worker, put in so much effort to work for Blue Fox and risk offending his boss?


    Xu Lin turned on his phone and saw a pop-up window for a game. Just as he was about to click it, he suddenly saw that the account that posted the advertisement was the official account of Xintao.


    He immediately clicked on it. It was an advertisement for Xintao¡¯s game launch conference.


    Seeing this, Xu Lin¡¯s eyelids twitched. Blue Fox was still struggling to surpass Xintao in express delivery. He did not expect Xintao to start a new project already.


    He remembered the last time Xintao live-streamed the sale of goods. That event struck a heavy blow to Blue Fox. He wondered what kind of ¡°surprise¡± they would give Blue Fox this time.


    Xu Lin looked at the advertisements for Xintao¡¯s games that were spreading everywhere and felt extremely conflicted.


    He had always known where Blue Fox¡¯s problem lay. The most fundamental problem was not their delivery, but the entire platform¡¯s operating model. As long as Blue Fox did not change, it would never surpass Xintao.


    It was not that the investors did not know about this situation, but they did not care.


    Regardless of whether it was Blue Fox or Speedy, as long as the project they invested in turned out to be profitable, they would see it as beneficial. However, Xu Lin could not let things stay this way. The most important thing for him now was to think of a way to change the situation.


    He was annoyed. The current situation was already difficult, but those investors were still causing trouble for him.


    On another note, why would a shopping platform like Xintao make a game? What was the relationship between the two things? Could it be that Yin Xun had come up with some magical idea to use the game to facilitate shopping?


    Recently, he had been feeling troubled while dealing with Blue Fox¡¯s issues. Xu Lin had not been able to rest well. Moreover, he had just finished a meeting, so his mind was a little muddled.


    After thinking for a moment, he remembered that Si Fan¡¯s assistant had gone to work at Xintao. The two of them had spoken a few times in the past. Perhaps he could see if he could get some information from him.


    After hesitating for a while, Xu Lin opened his contact list and found Cheng She¡¯s number.


    Cheng She was quite surprised when he received Xu Lin¡¯s call. Usually, other than Si Fan, no one else in Blue Fox would look for him. Everyone thought that he honestly came to work at Xintao.


    He did not expect Xu Lin to suddenly contact him. He had never spoken much to Xu Lin, let alone become friends with him.


    In the end, he still picked up the call because he was curious about what Xu Lin wanted.


    After the call connected, Xu Lin greeted Cheng She warmly and asked him how he had been recently and if there was anything he needed help with.


    At first, Cheng She managed to maintain a conversation with him. However, he could not hold it back. He asked bluntly, ¡°Vice President Xu, why did you call me? Just say it.¡±


    Xu Lin did not expect Cheng She to be so straightforward. He immediately felt a little awkward. He coughed twice and asked tentatively, ¡°Um, so, is there a new project now? Why are you suddenly thinking of making games? Could it be that the online shopping platform is no longer able to satisfy Yin Xun?¡±


    ¡°So that¡¯s what it¡¯s about. 1 don¡¯t know about anything else, but I know that President Yin has no shortage of money. At present, the company¡¯s liquid funds are overflowing, so she started a separate game project,¡± Cheng She said. Xu Lin,¡±¡­ Is that all?¡±


    ¡°What else do you think?¡± Cheng She asked.


    Originally, Xu Lin only wanted to ask Cheng She some questions, but he could not find the words in the end. He was left speechless by Cheng She.


    Seeing Xu Lin¡¯s silence, Cheng She continued, ¡°Vice President Xu, if you have any questions about our game project, you can contact customer service. Customer service will answer your questions. Oh, right, we¡¯re holding a press conference the day after tomorrow. You can go and take a look. Someone can answer your questions there.¡±


    Cheng She¡¯s words were very clever. Not a single word answered what Xu Lin wanted to know, but he could not find any fault with it.


    ¡°Then¡­¡± Xu Lin thought for a moment and asked again, ¡°Other than gaming, is there anything else that Xintao has been doing recently?¡±


    Finally, Xu Lin could not hold it in any longer and asked bluntly..

 Chapter 648 - Chapter 648: Even Scarier

    Chapter 648: Even Scarier


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Cheng She smiled and said, ¡°You mean you want to know about Xintao¡¯s recent movements and whether there are any activities that will affect Blue Fox, right? Yes, the event now is this game. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Director Chen of Blue Fox that we were able to hold this press conference. If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that the incident had garnered so much attention that the entire Internet was discussing our Xintao, President Yin might not have chosen to have this press conference. She said that we can save money on publicity fees and use all the money on the game in the future.¡±


    Xu Lin,¡±¡­¡±


    He was sure that Cheng She had definitely said this on purpose to spite him.


    ¡°Then what do you mean by affecting Blue Fox? It¡¯s not like Blue Fox has anything to do with games.¡± Xu Lin suppressed his temper and kept asking.


    ¡°Oh, Blue Fox¡¯s board member made up dirty rumors about our President Yin. After being exposed, he was so angry that he went to destroy our Xintao¡¯s warehouse. The media will definitely make a big fuss about this matter. But don¡¯t worry, President Yin is a nice person. She will never take the initiative to do anything that will damage Blue Fox¡¯s reputation. She will not publicize this.¡± Cheng She said firmly.


    Cheng She was not scolding them, but every word he said was a slap to the face. There was no doubt that calling Cheng She was inviting trouble.


    He asked a few more questions, but Cheng She smoothly brushed them off. Xu Lin did not learn anything, so he could only hang up in the end.


    After that, Xu Lin kept trying to salvage Blue Fox¡¯s reputation.


    He wanted to improve the quality of customer service, improve the after-sales services, and at the same time, persuade the investors to pay more attention to Blue Fox itself and not focus entirely on express delivery.


    However, the investors insisted that the difference between Xintao and Blue Fox was in the delivery service. As long as they improved the delivery, they could pull back customers. They even accused Xu Lin of being short-sighted.


    Sun Lei was the most extreme in this regard. Xu Lin¡¯s actions had already shown conflict with his interests, and he was becoming more and more dissatisfied with Xu Lin.


    Xu Lin took on all the responsibilities of Blue Fox by himself. Soon, it was the day of Xintao¡¯s game launch.


    Many media outlets were present, and the seats below the stage were already full. After all, the main character of the Fang family¡¯s mistress incident, Yin Xun, would also come to speak. In addition to the enmity between Yin Xun and Blue Fox, if they could get some other news at the press conference, the media outlets would strike it big.


    Sitting backstage, the graphic designer, Shi Shi, was holding a script behind her back. Her entire body was trembling as if she was looking at some kind of horror.


    Cheng She was standing beside her and talking to the planner, Yang Shan. The two of them were so focused on the conversation that they ignored Shi Shi, who seemed so nervous that she was about to faint.


    ¡°Assistant Cheng, do I have to go up on stage? Isn¡¯t President Yin going? With her and Sis Yang Shan on stage, there shouldn¡¯t be any need for me, right?¡± Shi Shi gently tugged at the corner of Cheng She¡¯s shirt with a trembling hand as she said softly.


    ¡°Shi Shi, you don¡¯t have to be so nervous. Just follow what I taught you and convince yourself that you¡¯re not nervous. Also, just think of the people below the stage as dummies and ignore them.¡± Cheng She comforted her. ¡°Think about it like that. Those things down there are only lifelike mannequins. How about it? Isn¡¯t that much easier?¡±


    ¡°Assistant Cheng, it feels even scarier now.¡± Shi Shi trembled even harder.


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    Yang Shan took a glass of warm water and handed it to Shi Shi. She sat beside her and encouraged her softly, ¡°It¡¯s alright, Shi Shi. You¡¯re a capable person. You just need to talk about your original design concept. This is what you¡¯re best at, so don¡¯t be nervous.¡±


    ¡°If everyone asks me really specific questions, how should I answer them? I¡¯m afraid that if I answer wrongly, it will cause trouble for the company¡­¡± Shi Shi said nervously.


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about that. You just have to say what you want to say. If you don¡¯t want to answer the questions, you can step down at any time. Our game doesn¡¯t rely on these events to operate. We rely on the quality of the game.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s voice came from behind.


    Everyone turned around and saw Yin Xun walking over confidently in a white suit.


    ¡°President Yin, you¡¯re here!¡± The moment Shi Shi saw Yin Xun, it was as if she had seen her savior. She immediately went over to her. ¡°The press conference is about to start. Aren¡¯t you going to speak first?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine, I¡¯m just checking on you guys.¡± Yi Xun smiled faintly. ¡°Shi Shi, don¡¯t feel pressured. Sometimes, sincerity is what people love the most.¡±


    ¡°But 1 can¡¯t even speak when I¡¯m nervous.¡± Shi Shi was still anxious..

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You weren¡¯t like this when you reported to me about your work. You could properly answer everything 1 asked. Your work was perfect.¡± Yin Xun looked at Shi Shi, but she was staring at her toes, not daring to meet Yin Xun¡¯s gaze.


    ¡°But I¡¯ve talked to you a lot already, so we¡¯re familiar with each other. Besides, I know what your questions are.¡± Shi Shi was a little confused.


    ¡°But we weren¡¯t familiar when we first met.¡± Yin Xun smiled. ¡°You¡¯re nervous because you¡¯re not confident. You¡¯re actually really good at what you do. When you go on stage, you just have to focus on the game itself. Don¡¯t worry about anything else. If there¡¯s an emergency, I¡¯ll help you.¡±


    Yin Xun gently patted Shi Shi¡¯s hand. Her hand was soft and warm and felt like it had a calming effect. Shi Shi¡¯s anxiety dissipated a little.


    Shi Shi took a deep breath and smiled. ¡°President Yin, don¡¯t worry. 1 won¡¯t let you down.¡±


    ¡°Good luck, Shi Shi!¡± Yang Shan said encouragingly.


    Cheng She also encouraged her.


    There were still two minutes to nine. Yin Xun comforted Shi Shi a little more and then walked to the podium.


    At this moment, the host was already in place. Yin Xun stood behind the curtain, waiting for the show to begin.


    She had specifically hired a host for this press conference, but she did not tell Shi Shi about it. This was to train her. Even if Shi Shi said something wrong halfway through, or if there were not enough questions asked, the host would be able to control the scene, so there would not be any problems.


    !!..


    The press conference began at 9 pm sharp.


    After the host gave a brief introduction, he invited Yin Xun out.


    Yin Xun had become a celebrity recently. Just as Cheng She said, she had been given all kinds of titles by the media. She originally planned to give a simple introduction to the company¡¯s philosophy and leave. However, she did not expect that the media would start making things difficult for her the moment she finished her speech.


    ¡°Miss Yin, although you are the daughter of the Yin Corporation, according to the news we have received, you never asked your family to support you when you started the company. Instead, you found an investor by yourself. Later on, you burned through a lot of money to make Xintao successful. Judging by the amount you managed to spend, may I ask something? Is it really as the Internet rumors say, that you relied on some improper means to attract investors?¡± A middle-aged male reporter sitting in the last row asked this question.


    They had no restrictions on the press conference this time, so anyone was allowed entry. Even the host was shocked by the reporter¡¯s words.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, my friend. Our press conference today is only related to the game, and we only answer relevant questions. If you¡¯re curious about other things, please¡­¡±


    Without waiting for the host to finish, Yin Xun gave him a look, indicating that he did not need to speak.


    Yin Xun¡¯s gaze was fixed on the audience. If she was not mistaken, the person sitting there just now was Si Fan.


    Although Si Fan was wearing a mask and hat and holding a camera, Yin Xun could still tell at a glance.


    ¡°Someone is trying to cause trouble. Inform the security guards. Leave this to me.¡± Yin Xun and the host were standing very close to each other. Yin Xun quietly moved two steps back to the host¡¯s side and whispered to him while tidying her hair.


    When the host heard Yin Xun¡¯s words, he was surprised, but he did not show any abnormality in his expression. He smiled and graciously passed the podium to Yin Xun before leaving.


    After that, Yin Xun began to answer the questions from the reporters.


    Shi Shi and the others, who had been paying attention to the situation on stage, were stunned. Why did they not follow the procedure? Also, Yin Xun was clearly here to promote the game. Why did she suddenly agree to talk about something else?


    ¡°Will something go wrong?¡± Shi Shi asked worriedly. Compared to the anxiety of going on stage later, she was actually more worried about Yin Xun now.


    Cheng She shook his head. ¡°That won¡¯t happen. No matter what President Yin does, she always knows what she¡¯s doing. All we need to do is listen to her arrangements.¡±


    Just as Yin Xun was answering the reporter¡¯s question, the lights in the hall suddenly went out, and the entire hall instantly fell into darkness.


    Screams immediately rang out in the arena. From the sound, one could tell that the scene was gradually becoming very chaotic.


    However, the blackout did not last long. Soon, the entire hall was lit up again.


    The reporters below the stage adjusted themselves to continue filming when they saw this. In the end, they noticed that a man in a raincoat was standing on the stage with a glass bottle in his hand. He was standing motionlessly, looking as if he was as shocked as anyone.


    The person on stage had changed from Yin Xun to a strange man. The media immediately began to feel curious.


    ¡°Who sent you here to attack me?¡± In the midst of the confusion, everyone saw Yin Xun slowly walk up the stage from below. Her expression was calm, and behind her were two sturdy-looking women..

 Chapter 650 - Chapter 650: Forgotten

    Chapter 650: Forgotten


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When the man saw Yin Xun, he tried to run away. However, no matter how fast he ran, he was outpaced by Yin Xun¡¯s bodyguards. In the end, he could not avoid getting caught.


    ¡°Who¡¯s attacking you? I just wanted to give you a bottle of water because I admire you!¡± the man shouted and tried to explain himself.


    Yin Xun walked over and saw the corroded floor on the stage. She nodded. ¡°You¡¯re going to use sulfuric acid to disfigure me?¡±


    With that, she dialed the police number in front of the man.


    The media reporters below the stage saw what was happening and took photos one after another.


    There was another piece of news. Someone tried to take out the Xintao boss and was caught red-handed.


    ¡°Let go of me! What right do you have to arrest me?!¡± The man struggled desperately, trying to escape. As he struggled, a knife fell out of his sleeve.


    The whole place fell silent. It seemed that things were escalating quite a bit.


    Shi Shi and the others backstage were worried about Yin Xun. They wanted to go over to see what was happening, but they were stopped by Cheng She. ¡°It¡¯s useless even if you go over. You¡¯ll only be a burden. There are so many media outlets watching. Besides, wasn¡¯t that person captured by President Yin¡¯s bodyguards? He won¡¯t be able to hurt President Yin again.¡±


    Shi Shi and Yang Shan were convinced by his reasoning. They stayed where they were and listened to Yin Xun¡¯s instructions. They were afraid that they would drag Yin Xun down if they went out now.


    The police arrived very soon. They came over and escorted the man away. After that, the hall returned to silence.


    It happened so suddenly that it felt like a staged joke. The whole affair ended before anyone could react. The reporters looked around and saw the confusion in each other¡¯s eyes.


    However, although the accident was fleeting, the media would not let go of this piece of news.


    The press conference continued afterward. Yin Xun continued to answer the reporters¡¯ questions. Although the questions were tricky, Yin Xun did not panic. She was calm and collected. The press conference turned into a question-and-answer session for the reporters.


    After Yin Xun¡¯s part was over, it was Shi Shi¡¯s turn to go on stage. Originally, Yang Shan was supposed to go first and Shi Shi would go last, but because Shi Shi was incredibly nervous, the two of them switched.


    After what just happened, Shi Shi had forgotten the script that she had painstakingly memorized.


    She stood in the middle of the stage with her hands behind her back and looked at the crowd below the stage. She was so nervous that her mind was completely blank.


    She thought about how Yin Xun did not have any stage fright despite facing so many difficulties just now. Meanwhile, she only needed to introduce the game and it already felt so bad. It was outrageous.


    Shi Shi took a deep breath and stopped trying to recall the contents of the script. ¡°Just ask me if you have any questions,¡± she said.


    As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Shi was immediately shocked by her own words. What was going on? Why was she speaking so stiffly?


    She clearly wanted to say that she had a few things to address, but the words had changed in her mouth!


    ¡°Miss Shi, this game is completely different from others. Every aspect of it feels innovative, but it was completed rather quickly. Did your team encounter any bottlenecks when you were writing?¡± a reporter asked.


    This was a simple question. Shi Shi heaved a sigh of relief. At least she could answer this.


    ¡°You have to be creative in everything you do. If you don¡¯t, wouldn¡¯t it be plagiarism if you copy others?¡± Shi Shi replied expressionlessly.


    Her words were so sharp that the reporter was left speechless. Her answer seemed reasonable.


    ¡°So, according to what you¡¯re saying, games with similar styles are considered plagiarized?¡± The reporter continued to ask questions.


    The reporters were pushing Shi Shi into a corner. If she said yes, she would offend a lot of people. If she said no, it would mean that she was denying her earlier statement.


    No matter which answer she gave, it would be controversial. When the time came, the number of readers would increase, and the reporters would secretly be delighted by the drama.


    To their surprise, Shi Shi stared sharply at the reporter. ¡°Do you have to twist my words like that?¡± she asked coolly.


    Shi Shi was short-sighted, so she could not see the reporter clearly. However, she felt that it was impolite to speak without looking at the camera. She was afraid that someone would criticize her, so she stared in the direction of the voice, but she still could not see them clearly.


    However, in the eyes of the reporters, Shi Shi was looking at him with a cold look. Her aura felt so strong that the reporter actually felt a little guilty. Hence, he asked a few other questions that were not as sharp and ended the questioning.


    ¡°Then where did your inspiration come from?¡± another reporter asked.


    Shi Shi opened the PowerPoint presentation that she had prepared and gave a demonstration to the reporters. ¡°Inspiration comes from life. When we create, we first design a plot and then create the imagery accordingly¡­¡±


    Shi Shi quickly flipped through the presentation and described how she created a character.


    Everyone was astonished..

 Chapter 651 - Chapter 651: It Was Indeed Yin Xuns

    Chapter 651: It Was Indeed Yin Xun¡¯s


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    What was Shi Shi saying and doing? The PowerPoint was filled with technical terms. Before the reporters could finish reading one slide, Shi Shi had already flipped to the next. They had no idea what she was talking about!


    It felt like looking at a very difficult math problem. Shi Shi wrote down the equations and the answers with nothing in between.


    She had indeed shown the solution, but she skipped the procedure. How could anyone know what was going on? However, even though they were utterly confused, everyone knew that Shi Shi was an impressive individual.


    Shi Shi was a bag of nerves the entire time. She stood on the stage with so much anxiety that her mind went blank.


    While the reporters continued asking questions, Shi Shi turned her head slightly and saw Yin Xun behind the podium curtain. She felt a little relieved, and at the same time, was a little touched.


    Yin Xun was supposed to be busy with her own matters, but when she saw Shi Shi¡¯s nervousness, she decided to stay by her side.


    Seeing that Shi Shi was able to answer the reporter¡¯s questions smoothly on stage, Yin Xun gave her a comforting smile. Then, she took out her phone and opened the Short Video app.


    This press conference was a live broadcast. In addition to Rhythm Short Video, she also spent some extra money to cooperate with other video platforms to broadcast the event live on the Internet.


    However, only the Short Video app could see real-time comments on the screen, but this was only available to those who logged in on their phones, which was why many users still chose to use other video platforms.


    Yin Xun turned her phone to silent mode and started reading the comments.


    She had been busy with the press conference just now, so she did not pay attention to the real-time news. She opened the comments section and saw a comment with a large amount of Likes about the sudden incident.


    [Xintao is such a trending topic. Not only the company, but even the CEO is getting so much attention. However, it¡¯s fine if you like being famous, but it¡¯s another thing to like causing trouble. That accident at the press conference was orchestrated by Yin Xun herself. Since someone already released the evidence, you can look it up yourself. Yin Xun is prettier than I thought, but she¡¯s an attention seeker. She showed up personally at the press conference for this reason and even made such a scene. Her main goal is to get famous.]


    There were many replies under this comment. Yin Xun clicked on them and read some of the replies.


    [OP, is this true or false? It could be a false rumor. But it would be fun if it was really true. A capitalist actually learned the tricks of the entertainment industry. Could it be that she also wants to enter the entertainment industry after she gets popular? Not to mention, just based on looks alone, the CEO of Xintao is really pretty. She could even match up to those big celebrities.]


    [Do you hate rich people? She¡¯s the CEO. Her company is doing well and earning more than the entertainment industry. Why can¡¯t ordinary people show their faces? Besides, there are so many CEOs who accept interviews, so why can¡¯t Xintao¡¯s CEO do it?]


    Many people in the comments section believed the original comment, but there were also many who felt that the person was talking nonsense.


    That incident just now¡­


    Yin Xun frowned. She thought of Si Fan¡¯s figure that she spotted below the stage. Could it be that Si Fan really did this?


    She then remembered that the man did not seem to be actively trying to hurt her. He had poured the sulfuric acid directly on the ground. He had a knife on him, but he did not take it out from the start. He did not even threaten anyone. He just made a show in front of the media. There was no concrete evidence of him harming anyone. Even if he went to the police station, he could be released after making a statement.


    Yin Xun followed the details in the comment and searched for more information. She saw a user with the username ¡°Wanna Make Money¡±. This user had analyzed the situation as the comment said and even shown a picture of Yin Xun¡¯s transfer record.


    The name on it had been blurred out, but it was only a very shallow layer. Yin Xun could tell that it was indeed her account.


    She was stunned. The picture was not photoshopped. The picture was real, but she certainly had not hired someone to do this.


    There was only one conclusion. As the CEO of Xintao, she had many projects and countless friends in her account. She often transferred money to others. Someone must have sold her account information to others.


    If she could see the amount of money in that particular transfer, she could find out who the other party was. However, other than her account number, everything else in the screenshot was heavily censored. It seemed that the person was deliberately hiding the truth.


    Therefore, Yin Xun could only tell that the screenshot was real, but could not tell who was responsible for leaking it.


    The press conference was still going on, and Yin Xun could not get away. The perpetrator probably recognized the situation and took the chance to make a move.


    Yin Xun gave it some thought and went backstage to tell Cheng She about the situation..

 Chapter 652 - Chapter 652: Cool

    Chapter 652: Cool


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Cheng She was also very surprised when he heard this. He did not expect someone to plan something like this. He thought that the perpetrator was trying to physically attack Yin Xun.


    He was still puzzled. The attacker was too overconfident. The man actually did all that in front of so many media outlets.


    When he heard Yin Xun say that it might have something to do with Si Fan, he instantly panicked. He was afraid that Yin Xun would blame him, so he quickly said, ¡°President Yin¡­ I¡¯ve never heard of this¡­¡±


    ¡°I know. This might not be Si Fan¡¯s doing either,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. ¡°I can¡¯t leave my station now. Help me investigate.¡±


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡± Seeing that Yin Xun did not suspect him, Cheng She heaved a sigh of relief and left the hall after giving his word.


    Yin Xun was worried that there would be other unexpected events, so she called the event manager over to increase the security patrols.


    Shi Shi, who was on stage right now, knew nothing about what was going on and was still answering the questions.


    ¡°Miss Shi, your company said that the game is free to play. Does this mean that you only don¡¯t have to pay for the registration, or does it mean that you don¡¯t have to pay for literally anything? Do I still need to spend money to draw cards for resources, or to buy skin items, et cetera? Can you please explain it more clearly?¡± A female reporter saw that the previous reporter had finished asking questions and immediately stood up to take her turn.


    Normally, Shi Shi would only be responsible for introducing the art section. However, the reporter had already started asking about other things, so it would not be appropriate if she refused to answer. Shi Shi braced herself and said, ¡°If something requires money to be obtained, how can it be called free?¡±


    She was a little puzzled by the reporter¡¯s question.


    Her answer directly stumped the reporter. This answer seemed to be a logical statement, but it also did not explain anything.


    The reporter did not know how to continue asking questions, so she could only thank Shi Shi and sit down.


    Another reporter stood up and asked, ¡°Miss Shi, I¡¯d like to ask you something. The ultimate goal of every company is to make money. If you said that this is a free game, it seems that your company doesn¡¯t intend to make a profit. Could it be that this is a game made for charity?¡±


    ¡°The system is set in place by our leader. Of course, it depends on what she wants,¡± Shi Shi replied.


    ¡°Uh¡­¡± The reporter was also surprised by Shi Shi¡¯s answer. ¡°Then can you tell me about the specific gameplay? What is the main goal of this game? Since it¡¯s a free game¡ªand a detailed one at that¡ªwhat is your company¡¯s goal with it?¡±


    ¡°For this question, our planning team will answer it in detail,¡± Shi Shi said helplessly.


    These reporters were all asking about the company¡¯s situation and not asking about the artwork. Shi Shi saw that there were more reporters who seemed to have questions, and she was already at her limit. If there were any more questions, she really would not know how to answer them.


    ¡°Since you don¡¯t have any more questions about the graphic designs, I¡¯ll step down first. As for how to operate the game, someone else will answer those questions.¡± Shi Shi smiled at the camera and ignored the reporters who still wanted to ask questions. She left hurriedly.


    As soon as she got off the stage, Shi Shi¡¯s legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Yin Xun was beside her and helped her steady herself.


    ¡°Thank you, President Yin. But, did I just embarrass our company? I really couldn¡¯t take it anymore, so I had no choice but to step down¡­¡± Shi Shi looked at Yin Xun with tears in her eyes.


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°You¡¯ve answered so many questions outside of graphic design. You did a good job. Leave the rest to Yang Shan.¡±


    ¡°But I think I said something wrong when I answered the question just now¡­¡± Shi Shi said dejectedly. She was originally only in charge of graphics and had every right to reject the other questions. However, for some reason, her brain had suddenly shut down, and she ended up trying to answer a lot of questions that were not for her.


    Yang Shan, who was preparing to go on stage, also comforted Shi Shi. ¡°Shi Shi, President Yin has already shown her confidence in you. Don¡¯t blame yourself anymore. Besides, you said some good things earlier. If you don¡¯t believe me, go and look at the live broadcast comments later. Everyone is praising you.¡±


    After saying that, Yang Shan made a face at Shi Shi and went on stage.


    Yin Xun smiled as she pulled Shi Shi to the computer backstage and gestured for her to read the comments.


    Yin Xun scrolled past the comments about the surprise attack and only showed Shi Shi the comments about her session..

    Chapter 653: Thanking Yin Xun


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Shi Shi was so nervous that she kept looking around her. She did not dare to look at the computer screen. She was sure that she would be criticized. Under Yin Xun¡¯s strong urging, she lowered her head and looked at the computer screen.


    [The graphic designer was so beautiful and cool. The reporters put her in a tough spot, but she actually shut them up with a single sentence!]


    [She¡¯s not only beautiful, but her name is also so pleasant. The name Shi Shi sounds so poetic! Not only is she beautiful, but she¡¯s also really smart. I can easily tell that she¡¯s one of those top students. She spoke shortly without beating around the bush. I used to think that people in the art industry were all talkative. I didn¡¯t to see such a blunt one!]


    [The post above, what do you mean by ¡®you can easily tell that she¡¯s a top student?¡¯ She¡¯s actually a top student. Moreover, she was admitted to Beijing University in the past! She majored in computer science, but 1 didn¡¯t expect her to be talented in drawing too. I just checked. She only picked up drawing after graduation. It¡¯s surprising that she¡¯s this good.]


    [Is this what a top student is like? To her, studying is as simple as eating. Wait, no, even I can¡¯t eat that quickly!]


    Yin Xun showed Shi Shi the comments about her. After reading them, Shi Shi was so shocked that her eyes were bulging.


    She turned to look at Yin Xun and asked in surprise, ¡°Was I cool?¡±


    In fact, she was only speaking like that because she was so nervous that her mind was blank.


    Also, she hated it when people called her a top student. She was not worthy of the title ¡®top student¡¯ at all. How could a top student forget their script when giving a speech on stage?


    When she thought about the speech, Shi Shi quickly apologized to Yin Xun. ¡°President Yin, I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t go according to your plan. I was too nervous when I first went on stage, so 1 forgot the contents of the speech.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s alright,¡± Yin Xun consoled her. ¡°You did well. Don¡¯t blame yourself for such a small matter. Besides, you¡¯re just getting paid to do a job. You didn¡¯t mess up, so there¡¯s no need to blame yourself.¡±


    Shi Shi,


    These words were reasonable, but as the boss, should Yin Xun not want her to contribute more to the company? Why would she say such a thing?


    Yang Shan was speaking with confidence on stage. Shi Shi could not help but feel envious as she listened to her answering the reporters.


    She had been timid and introverted since she was young. She did not even dare to talk to outsiders. Every time her parents brought her out, they would compare her with other children. At the same time, they would casually complain to others in front of her, saying that she was a dim girl who could not even speak a word to others.


    Her parents were very envious of other children, especially those with glib mouths.


    After seeing how her parents were disappointed in her, she did her best to change herself, so she tried to become extroverted like other children.


    However, she was simply not good at talking. The result of forcing herself was that she kept saying wrong things and made a laughingstock of herself. This made her parents even more upset.


    From then on, she became more and more introverted and was afraid of society. She could only focus all her energy on her studies. She thought that as long as she studied well, no one would call her stupid again.


    Later on, her grades were indeed good and she was recommended to Beijing University. However, her social fear ruined her job search.


    She was forced to learn computer science by her parents, even though she did not like it at all. She preferred drawing. Therefore, after graduation, she resolutely changed her work direction.


    Alas, although she had the requirements for the field, she would mess up her interviews every time. Because she was not good with words, she was always rejected.


    Eventually, she successfully joined a company. However, the boss saw how frank she was and maliciously deducted her salary, knowing that she would not dare to ask for it.


    She was afraid of society, but she was not stupid. How could she be willing to work for others for cheap? She did not dare to ask for the money, so she quit directly in the end.


    No matter how skilled she was, she needed to be good with words to be appreciated.


    Initially, she was in a state of despair and thought that her career would end like this. She did not expect to encounter a turning point in her career with Xintao.


    The first two stages of the application were easy for her, but the final interview was difficult.


    She had already given up but, in a surprising twist, Cheng She contacted her privately and gave her a chance to show her skills. He asked her to create a picture according to the given topic.


    After seeing her results, Cheng She offered to let her stay without any questions asked. He even made her the main graphic designer and let her be in charge of the artwork.


    In order to accommodate her personality, Cheng She did not even require her to communicate directly with others. Instead, she could report whatever he needed in the group chat.


    This was the first time she had been valued so much. She thanked Cheng She profusely, but he told her that he was following Yin Xun¡¯s intentions..

    Since learning the whole story, Shi Shi had not thanked Yin Xun personally yet because she was not brave enough.


    She turned around and looked at Yin Xun deeply. She said, ¡°President Yin, thank you.¡±


    Yin Xun thought that she was just thanking her for the press conference. She waved her hand nonchalantly. ¡°It¡¯s not a big deal. You don¡¯t have to thank me.¡± ¡°I¡¯m thanking you for letting me stay back then. Actually, I¡¯ve wanted to thank you for a long time, but 1 never had the courage to say it,¡± Shi Shi said seriously.


    ¡°Alright, 1 accept your thanks.¡± Yin Xun nodded and smiled. ¡°If you really want to thank me, then do your best at work. Hmm¡­ 1 don¡¯t mind employees working overtime.¡±


    Shi Shi,¡±¡­¡±


    Should she not have said that?


    Shi Shi smiled. She felt that Yin Xun was saying this to make her relax.


    Thinking of this, Shi Shi felt much calmer. She could hear Yang Shan¡¯s voice on the stage, but she could not see what was going on. Hence, she sat in front of the computer and started watching Yang Shan on the screen.


    Yang Shan was the game planner, so she was the one who introduced the game¡¯s operations and other specific matters.


    Although her voice was gentle, she did not have stage fright at all when faced with the difficult questions of some reporters. She calmly introduced various issues to everyone. She could even talk about artwork, weapons, and clothing that were designed by the graphic designer.


    Shi Shi could not help but admire her. Yang Shan was quite amazing.


    There were many new comments in the comments section. Shi Shi clicked to read them.


    [What a gentle girl. Her voice is so sweet. Has she considered becoming a voice actress? It¡¯s a waste not to try voice acting!]


    [The cool sister has just left, and now a gentle sister has arrived. The CEO of Xintao is also a beauty. Could it be that Xintao¡¯s requirement for female employees is good looks? Each one we see is prettier than the last. It seems that even if I get a high-level degree, I won¡¯t be able to join them since I¡¯m not good-looking enough. Sob sob sob.]


    [To the person above, 1 just checked out your homepage. With your dainty looks, you can totally apply for a job at Xintao. Believe in yourself. My friend works at Xintao, actually. They prioritize ability over looks. It¡¯s a coincidence that a lot of good-looking folks happen to be working there.]


    Shi Shi nodded as she read the comments, agreeing with what the netizens said.


    Although she did not consider herself a beauty, she had always felt that Yin Xun and Yang Shan were beautiful and capable.


    ¡°Alright, since everyone has no more questions, that¡¯s all for today¡¯s press conference. Thank you, everyone. Our game will be launched tomorrow morning at nine o¡¯clock. Everyone is welcome to try it out.¡± After the reporters finished asking questions, Yang Shan ended the conference with a smile.


    The crowd dispersed. At the same time, Cheng She also returned. Fie walked to Yin Xun¡¯s side and whispered a few words into her ear.


    Cheng She¡¯s expression did not look too good, but Yin Xun did not show any emotion.


    ¡°Alright, I understand. I¡¯ll handle it as you say,¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    Just as Cheng She was about to leave, he suddenly saw a few familiar figures in the crowd. He took a closer look and confirmed that he was not mistaken.


    ¡°President Yin, something big has happened!¡± he hurriedly reported to Yin Xun. ¡°What? Is there someone else coming to cause trouble? The press conference has already ended. It¡¯s too late for them to do anything now.¡± Yin Xun felt rather helpless.


    Cheng She quickly said, ¡°No, no, 1 just saw the chairman of the Yin Corporation, Mr. Yin Cheng¡­¡±


    ¡°Oh, my dad. He was watching our live broadcast. He probably saw that something had happened and was worried, so he came to check on me,¡± Yin Xun said nonchalantly. She was prepared to go out and meet Yin Cheng after she was done with the things at hand.


    However, just as she was about to get back to work, Cheng She added, ¡°Other than Chairman Yin, 1 also saw the President of Fang Corporation. He seems to be very familiar with Chairman Yin. The two of them were chatting¡­¡±


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t you say so earlier?!¡± Without waiting for Cheng She to finish, Yin Xun hurried to the stage with uncharacteristic anxiety.


    As expected, the two men seemed to be in a good mood, especially Fang Yao. He was not showing his usual cold demeanor at all.


    Yin Xun did not know why she felt so nervous. The two men had clearly met before.


    Yin Xun took a deep breath and walked toward the pair.


    ¡°Dad, why are you here?¡± In front of Yin Cheng, Yin Xun did not show the aura of a strong capable woman. She became an obedient little girl in an instant..

 Chapter 655 - Chapter 655: Not Worthy

    Chapter 655: Not Worthy


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at her. ¡°I was watching your live broadcast. There were people who had the nerve to hurt you in front of all the media outlets. How can 1 be at ease?¡± From what Lil Fang said just now, you already knew that someone was targeting you. Why didn¡¯t you call the police?¡±


    ¡°Lil Fang? When did you become so familiar with Fang Yao? Why are you calling him so intimately?¡± Yin Xun laughed.


    ¡°Don¡¯t interrupt. I¡¯m asking you something serious!¡± Yin Cheng said angrily.


    Yin Xun saw that Yin Cheng was insistent on this, so she could only tell the truth. ¡°That person had his entire body covered except for the eyes. It was obvious that he was up to no good. If 1 kick him out directly, it¡¯ll be bad for our company¡¯s reputation. I would rather take the opportunity to flush out the people in the shadows and settle things once and for all.¡±


    ¡°Even if you¡¯re trying to settle things for good, aren¡¯t you afraid of getting hurt?!¡± Yin Cheng looked angry on the surface, but he was very worried inside. He looked at Yin Xun¡¯s back and asked, ¡°Are you done here? Come home with me for dinner.¡±


    Fang Yao¡¯s gaze looked a little helpless. He had come here to bring Yin Xun back for dinner too.


    However, the other person was Yin Xun¡¯s family, so he had no right to say anything. He could only sit quietly at the side.


    ¡°Dad, I still have something to do later. I can¡¯t go back with you today.¡± Yin Xun refused.


    Yin Cheng had no intention of forcing her. When he heard that Yin Xun was busy, he turned to look at Fang Yao. He smiled thoughtfully. ¡°Alright, I just came to check on you. Your brother is coming back soon and your mother wants us to have a meal at your place after he comes back. We haven¡¯t been there since you moved in.¡±


    ¡°Sure,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Right after that, Yin Cheng reminded Yin Xun to be careful before leaving.


    ¡°How are things? Any other problems?¡± Fang Yao knew Yin Xun very well. The press conference had already ended, but Yin Xun just said she still had work to do. It seemed that Yin Xun wanted to deal with the unexpected incident that happened at the beginning of the press conference.


    As expected, Yin Xun nodded in response. ¡°Someone is using my account information to play dirty tricks. I want to find out who did it.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve already looked up on this just now.¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and frowned slightly. ¡°It¡¯s Mary¡¯s younger brother, Mark.¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±?¡±


    ¡°That screenshot was released by Mark.¡± As he spoke, Fang Yao turned on his phone and showed Yin Xun the original picture without the mosaic blurring. It was indeed the chat interface of Yin Xun and Mark.


    Because Mark had applied for leave from his work to help Yin Xun, Yin Xun had given him a sum of money as a reward. Previously, she had only helped Mark for Mary¡¯s sake, so when Mark offered to repay her, she rejected him.


    ¡°I wasn¡¯t expecting it to be him.¡± Yin Xun frowned deeply. She was quite surprised.


    However, she soon pieced together what was going on. Thinking back to the day when Mark met her, perhaps he was not actually working, and Mary seemed to be very nervous when Mark approached her. Mary probably knew something.


    ¡°Can you guess who¡¯s behind this?¡± Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun and asked.


    ¡°I don¡¯t think it¡¯s Si Fan,¡± Yin Xun thought for a moment and confirmed her thoughts.


    ¡°You¡¯re right. Chen Jue and Mark did it together,¡± Fang Yao said calmly. ¡°Do you need my help?¡±


    ¡°No need, I can handle it myself.¡± Yin Xun refused the offer.


    Out of curiosity, Cheng She had been hiding backstage and secretly watching Yin Xun. He knew that Fang Yao was Yin Xun¡¯s investor, but looking at the way the two of them interacted, he felt that they were unnaturally close.


    The way Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun was particularly notable. As a man, he knew this expression very well. This was not a simple gaze at another person. Could it be that Fang Yao liked Yin Xun?


    He thought back to the time when the Fang family had personally helped Yin Xun refute the rumors. At the same time, the Fang family had said that they would welcome Yin Xun becoming the daughter-in-law of their family. Back then, he had thought that it was just for show because Yin Xun and Fang Yao were business allies.


    If something happened to Yin Xun, it would also affect Fang Yao. Moreover, Fang Yao was also the talking point of the rumor, so the Fang family was inclined to intervene.


    Now, it seemed that he might have been wrong. Those rumors really had a deeper meaning.


    However, why would someone of Fang Yao¡¯s status like Yin Xun? The two of them were not compatible at all. Cheng She was not prejudiced against Yin Xun, but Fang Yao¡¯s background was simply too great.


    Although Yin Xun was also someone to be reckoned with, if you just looked at their families, Yin Xun was clearly not worthy of Fang Yao.


    Besides, it did not make sense for Fang Yao to like Yin Xun romantically.


    All Yin Xun ever thought about was work. She knew nothing about human relations. If Fang Yao wanted to pursue Yin Xun, it would be a huge pain..

 Chapter 656 - Chapter 656: You Cant

    Chapter 656: You Can¡¯t


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun turned around and saw Cheng She staring at her from behind. She asked curiously, ¡°Cheng She, why haven¡¯t you left yet? Do you need me to send you back?¡±


    Cheng She hurriedly waved his hand. ¡°No need for that, President Yin. Um, do I still need to investigate the incident?¡±


    Fang Yao had already told Yin Xun about everything. Cheng She had not left yet because of this.


    ¡°Oh, 1 guess there¡¯s no need. You can go back and rest. You¡¯ve worked hard today.¡± Yin Xun thanked him.


    The investigation was handled by someone else. Yin Xun gave a short explanation and then casually left with Fang Yao under the shocked gazes of the employees.


    Cheng She looked at the employees who had been gawking at Yin Xun until she left. ¡°That¡¯s enough looking. If you keep staring, President Yin might deduct your salary. Hurry up and finish the work.¡±


    ¡°President Yin won¡¯t cut salary for such a small matter,¡± one of the employees smiled and said to Cheng She. ¡°I already knew who Xintao¡¯s investor was. But 1 didn¡¯t expect him to have such a good relationship with President Yin. Tsk tsk. As a person with more than ten dating experiences, 1 can tell that the relationship between those two is more than meets the eye.¡±


    ¡°I feel that President Yin isn¡¯t thinking that way. It looks like it¡¯s President Fang who¡¯s looking at her with a smitten gaze,¡± another employee said.


    Listening to the discussion, Cheng She quickly tried to stop them. ¡°Hurry up and get to work. You had better hope that President Yin doesn¡¯t find out.¡±


    Yin Xun and Fang Yao had no idea that they would be talked about by the employees after they left.


    The two of them walked to Fang Yao¡¯s car. Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and asked, ¡°Did you come here for something?¡±


    Yin Xun had invited Fang Yao to the press conference before, but Fang Yao said that he had something on and could not make it.


    Moreover, this was not a particularly important event. Fang Yao did not have to come at all.


    Fang Yao smiled. ¡°As expected, I can¡¯t hide anything from you. There¡¯s indeed something I¡¯m here for.¡±


    Seeing that Fang Yao seemed a little embarrassed, Yin Xun could not hide her confusion. It was rare for Fang Yao to show such an expression. Could something bad have happened?


    Under Yin Xun¡¯s intense staring, Fang Yao coughed lightly and said, ¡°My mother has regained some strength now. You saved her life, so she wants to know if you¡¯d be okay with an invitation to meet up with her.¡±


    So that was the reason. Yin Xun nodded slowly and said, ¡°Of course. I just happened to have prepared a gift for Auntie last time. I can bring it along.¡± ¡°Do you mind if I ask what it is?¡± Fang Yao said.


    Thinking of the gifts that Yin Xun had given him before, Fang Yao could not help but feel a little exasperated. After all, he just wanted a bouquet of honest flowers. Who would have thought that Yin Xun would give him a yard full of green plants?


    To be honest, this was the first time he felt defeated by Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun shook her head mysteriously. ¡°You can¡¯t. You¡¯ll find out after 1 send the gift.¡±


    Although he did not really care what Yin Xun was bringing, he had to admit that he was curious about Yin Xun.


    Since Yin Xun had agreed to meet Lin Chan, Fang Yao asked the driver to drive directly to the Fang family¡¯s home.


    This was the first time Yin Xun had come to the Fang family¡¯s old residence. It was further away than she thought; they only arrived after an hour.


    The butler came out to welcome them. This time, Yin Xun could clearly tell that the butler¡¯s attitude toward them was different from usual. This time, he was extra polite.


    ¡°Young Master, Miss Yin, the Madam has been waiting for both of you.¡± The butler smiled at Yin Xun and led the way.


    She followed the butler into Lin Chan¡¯s room and saw Lin Chan lying on a bed with an IV drip. There was even medical equipment beside her. This was the first time Yin Xun had seen such medical equipment being used at a private home.


    ¡°Fang Yao, please leave. 1 want to talk to Miss Yin alone.¡± After greeting each other, Lin Chan spoke to Fang Yao.


    ¡°What can¡¯t you say in front of me?¡± Fang Yao asked coolly.


    Lin Chan¡¯s gaze shifted between Yin Xun and Fang Yao. After a while, she smiled and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I am not a venomous person. I won¡¯t do anything to Miss Yin.¡± Besides, she¡¯s my savior. 1 still have to thank her.¡±


    Yin Xun knew that Fang Yao was worried that Lin Chan would make things difficult for her. After all, Lin Chan had been hostile to her when they first met.


    ¡°You can leave,¡± she whispered to Fang Yao.


    ¡°Call me if you need anything.¡± Fang Yao looked deeply at Lin Chan. His gaze was stern and seemed to flash a warning before he left.


    After Fang Yao left, Yin Xun stood there and looked at Lin Chan. She behaved neither servile nor overbearing. She had a smile on her face and did not look nervous.


    Lin Chan also looked at Yin Xun. Their eyes met. What surprised Lin Chan was Yin Xun¡¯s calmness. Because of her status, very few people would dare to stare at her for so long..

 Chapter 657 - Chapter 657: It Was Nothing

    Chapter 657: It Was Nothing


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It seems that you are more important in Fang Yao¡¯s heart than 1 thought. I¡¯ve regained consciousness for a long time already. I have always wanted to meet you, but he stopped me every time. This time, he was only willing to invite you over after I threatened him,¡± Lin Chan said with a faint smile.


    ¡°Maybe he saw that I¡¯ve been busy recently, so he didn¡¯t dare to ask,¡± Yin Xun said calmly. Do you have something to tell me?¡±


    ¡°Oh, please sit down. I have something to talk to you about.¡± Lin Chan said with a light smile. She saw Yin Xun sit down and added, ¡°Miss Yin, I owe you this time. Thank you.¡±


    ¡°It was nothing,¡± said Yin Xun with a smile.


    ¡°Then how do you want me to repay you for the help?¡± Lin Chan asked.


    Lin Chan meant what she said. Previously, despite what happened with Yin Xun and how she treated her, Yin Xun still took the initiative to help her. When she woke up and heard Fang Yao and the others tell her this, she was moved.


    ¡°The investment you gave me last time helped a lot too. You have already done a lot for me, so there¡¯s no need for anything else.¡± Yin Xun said calmly.


    ¡°I apologize for what happened in the past,¡± Lin Chan smiled awkwardly and said.


    Yin Xun smiled to show her understanding. She took out an elegant palm-sized box from her bag and handed it to Lin Chan.¡± This is a gift I got for you. I hope you like it.¡±


    Fortunately, Lin Chan could still move her arm could. She took the gift and looked rather pleased. ¡°Oh right, Miss Yin. May I ask if you have someone you like right now?¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned for a moment. For some reason, Fang Yao suddenly appeared in his mind.


    ¡°Not really,¡± she quickly dispelled the thought and replied.


    ¡°Then when do you plan to get a boyfriend? If you think my question is intrusive, you can choose not to answer,¡± Lin Chan pressed.


    Yin Xun did not know why Lin Chan was suddenly so curious about her love life. Was she worried because she felt that Yin Xun was too close to Fang Yao? After all, Lin Chan had made that contract in the past to stop her from being with Fang Yao.


    ¡°We can only let nature take its course. My career is more important than anything else now,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Lin Chan looked more and more satisfied. She suddenly asked, ¡°What do you think of Fang Yao?¡±


    ¡°Fang Yao?¡± Yin Xun looked at Lin Chan. As expected, this was Lin Chan¡¯s goal.


    ¡°Fang Yao is a very good person, but don¡¯t worry. 1 have nothing to do with him on a personal level. We¡¯re only business allies at the moment. I¡¯ve always treated him as a friend,¡± Yin Xun explained.


    She guessed that Lin Chan was worried that she would hook up with Fang Yao, which was why she asked all this. Yin Xun had her principles too. If she promised not to do something, she definitely would not do it.


    As soon as Yin Xun finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.


    Lin Chan smiled at Yin Xun and said, ¡°Please come in.¡±


    The door was opened. Yin Xun turned around and saw Qu Lu standing at the door.


    Qu Lu greeted Yin Xun with a smile, not looking at all surprised that she was there.


    ¡°Girl, didn¡¯t I tell you to wait outside for a while? Why are you so impatient?¡± Lin Chan looked at Qu Lu, who had sat down beside her, and smiled helplessly.


    ¡°I was afraid that you would bully Yin Xun,¡± Qu Lu joked.


    Lin Chan raised her hand and gently knocked Qu Lu¡¯s head. ¡°Look at the state of me. How can 1 bully her?¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Qu Lu and Lin Chan¡¯s interaction and felt that their relationship was like that of a mother and daughter. It was very heartwarming.


    In front of Qu Lu, Lin Chan did not have her usual sharp aura. This made Yin Xun very curious. Qu Lu was an adopted child of the Qu family. Logically speaking, Lin Chan should be closer to Qu Lin.


    ¡°Have you told Yin Xun already?¡± Qu Lu asked Lin Chan with a mysterious expression.


    Lin Chan nodded. ¡°I was getting there. Don¡¯t interrupt.¡± Then, she looked at Yin Xun and asked, ¡°Miss Yin, although I don¡¯t know how you feel about Fang Yao, I can tell that you have a good impression of him. Back then, I was strongly against you being with Fang Yao because I felt sorry for Lulu. I thought she Lulu loved Fang Yao. I was surprised when this girl gave up on Fang Yao on her own accord. She even asked me to let you know personally.¡±


    Yin Xun understood what Lin Chan meant. She meant that she would not interfere in the things between her and Fang Yao anymore. Even if Yin Xun and Fang Yao got together, she would not object.


    ¡°Actually, there¡¯s really nothing between Fang Yao and me¡­¡±

 Chapter 658 - Chapter 658: Wont Stop You

    Chapter 658: Won¡¯t Stop You


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yin Xun wanted to explain herself, but before she could finish, Lin Chan interjected, ¡°Young lady, you just said that relationships should be left to nature to take its course. So you don¡¯t have to be in a hurry to deny it. You can continue to work with Fang Yao. I¡¯m just telling you that the contract is no longer valid.¡±


    After saying that, she gave Qu Lu a look.


    Qu Lu understood immediately. She stood up and walked to Yin Xun. Before Yin Xun could say anything, she pulled her to her feet. ¡°Auntie is tired. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    ¡°But¡­¡± Yin Xun wanted to talk to Lin Chan more, but Qu Lu dragged her to the door and closed it behind them.


    Qu Lu said to Yin Xun, ¡°The unpleasant things that happened between us before were all due to a misunderstanding. I¡¯m sorry. And Auntie Lin Chan treated you poorly because of me. That¡¯s why I asked her to tell you all this. I won¡¯t interfere with the relationship between you and Fang Yao in the future.¡±


    Qu Lu smiled. ¡°Of course. You said that you would help me set up a company, so you can¡¯t go back on your word either.¡±


    ¡°1 just gave Auntie a gift. 1 wanted to explain to her how to use it¡­¡± Yin Xun said helplessly. She did not expect Qu Lu to shove her out before she even had the chance to speak.


    Qu Lu said, ¡°¡­Why didn¡¯t you say so earlier? I thought you were getting emotional and wanted to reject my kindness.¡±


    ¡°You didn¡¯t give me a chance to speak.¡± Yin Xun did not know whether she should laugh or cry.


    ¡°Whatever, Auntie is a smart person. She will figure it out herself. She¡¯s only awake for a short while every day. She should be sleeping soon. Let¡¯s go.¡± Qu Lu pulled Yin Xun and walked out. ¡°Let¡¯s go find Liniin. She was in a meeting just now. It should be over soon.¡±


    Qu Lu told Yin Xun the details of the matter as they walked.


    It turned out that it was Qu Lu¡¯s idea to find Yin Xun this time. The reason she pestered Fang Yao so much in the past was to find a backer for herself.


    Since Yin Xun had promised to help her, she did not need Fang Yao anymore. In addition, she knew that Fang Yao never liked her. Before Yin Xun appeared, she thought that as long as she could improve her status, it would not be so bad to continue sucking up to Fang Yao in the future.


    It was only when Yin Xun appeared that she realized that it was impossible for her to be with Fang Yao. Since she had a more plausible alternative, she naturally let go of Fang Yao.


    She could tell that Fang Yao had feelings for Yin Xun. If she helped them, she could even earn their favor. This was the most profitable approach.


    Fang Yao watched Yin Xun walking away. He knew that Qu Lu and Yin Xun were rather close now, so there was nothing to worry about. At the same time, he could guess what was going on.


    Ever since Lin Chan was out of danger, Qu Lu had been taking care of her. Initially, Lin Chan had only one thought about Yin Xun¡ªshe was determined not to let her be with Fang Yao.


    As for Qu Lu, ever since she befriended Yin Xun, she no longer had any other thoughts about Fang Yao. Instead, since she knew that Fang Yao already liked Yin Xun, she took the initiative to match-make the two of them.


    Lin Chan was initially quite stubborn, but she had a great soft spot for Qu Lu, and Qu Lu finally convinced her to accept Yin Xun.


    When Lin Chan dropped her remaining prejudice against Yin Xun, she finally took the initiative to understand Yin Xun¡¯s situation more.


    She realized that Yin Xun was a young and capable person. In just half a year, she had brought Xintao to the top spot. Whether it was in terms of turnover or reputation, the company was far ahead of Blue Fox, which had been in operation for many years.


    Yin Xun did not even use her family¡¯s help to do all this. She did most of it herself. There was no denying that her skills were considerable.


    Lin Chan was not actually sleeping. When she saw Fang Yao enter her room, she said, ¡°That girl, Yin Xun, is actually not bad.¡±


    Fang Yao did not reply. He just looked at Lin Chan. Lin Chan knew her son very well.


    Fang Yao watched her silently. He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually angry.


    Lin Chan laughed. ¡°1 was wrong before. 1 thought she was one of those women who were after our family¡¯s wealth. I won¡¯t stop you from being with her in the future. You can do whatever you want.¡±


    ¡°Actually, you couldn¡¯t stop it from the beginning,¡± Fang Yao said calmly, ¡°You know, I only do what 1 think is right.¡±


    ¡°Alright, it seems that my son doesn¡¯t need me to look after him. Do you want to have dinner at home tonight?¡± Lin Chan asked with a smile.


    Fang Yao rejected her. ¡°There are too many rules here. Yin Xun doesn¡¯t like the feeling of being bound. Since we¡¯re done talking, the two of us will leave shortly.¡±


    ¡°Sigh, I can¡¯t even keep my child around anymore. My body is wounded, while my heart is hurt by you. Sigh¡­¡± Lin Chan pretended to be in pain..

    Fang Yao frowned slightly. ¡°Alright, stop acting. The doctor said that you¡¯re fine now. As long as you recuperate quietly, you¡¯ll get better in no time. You¡¯ll recover even faster if you don¡¯t worry too much.¡±


    After bidding farewell to Lin Chan, Fang Yao drove straight to the Qu family home.


    After Qu Lu led Yin Xun out of Lin Chan¡¯s room, they went to the Qu family¡¯s villa nearby to look for Qu Lin.


    The Qu family and the Fang family were family friends in every sense of the word. Their villa was in the next neighborhood and it was only a five-minute drive away.


    Unfortunately, Qu Lin was still in a video conference and was very busy at the moment. She only briefly greeted Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun gestured for her to continue with her work. When the two of them came out, Fang Yao happened to stop his car in the driveway.


    He got out of the car and walked up to Yin Xun. ¡°Are you heading back?¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Sure.¡±


    The sky had just turned dark. Although Qu Lu wanted her to stay for dinner, Yin Xun rejected her. Fang Yao and Yin Xun left without delay.


    Meanwhile, Yin Rui, who had been busy at the construction site for the whole day, had just finished his meal and was about to rest when he suddenly received a call from Yin Mo.


    Although Yin Mo had been chased out of the Yin family, she was still his biological sister. He could not bear to blacklist her.


    He thought that Yin Mo would never contact him again, so he was surprised to receive a call from her.


    After looking at the screen, Yin Rui thought for a moment and finally decided to answer the call.


    Right after he pressed the answer button, he heard Yin Mo¡¯s weak voice from the other end. ¡°Lil Rui, help me¡­¡±


    The next day, Yin Xun went to Xintao and headed straight to the gaming department.


    At nine o¡¯clock, the game was released as scheduled. Yin Xun went to the game department and observed the public reception after the game was released with the employees.


    Yesterday¡¯s press conference was a huge success and the surprise incident gave it some more exposure. The game was very popular and there were many discussions about the game on the webpage.


    [This game Mythology has amazing graphics. It¡¯s actually 3D. Most importantly, in order to adapt to all kinds of mobile phones, the game even created a graphics grading system. I really love that 1 can adjust the resolution according to the specs of the phone! I can even play with this old phone. Although it¡¯s pretty slow, it doesn¡¯t kick me out.]


    [It¡¯s actually a card-collecting game. I just got an SSR card. 1 thought it was already very powerful, but I was shocked to learn that we also needed to collect items and install accessories for the card. 1 opened this card from the packs 1 got and it¡¯s a 3D character model. Other games only have cards from the start to the end. 1 can¡¯t believe that games have developed this much!]


    [Mythology really is a free game. We don¡¯t even need to spend money to buy items. But why are they so ruthless? They actually want us to travel out to collect them. Although items don¡¯t affect the game experience, I love collecting things! But I don¡¯t want to go outdoors. I¡¯ll be dried into a husk. Why don¡¯t they just make it purchasable?]


    There was a lot of discussion about the game. Card-collecting games were not new, but this was the first to have free 3D character models.


    The players complained about the game¡¯s item acquisition method, which required outdoor training.


    Even so, some people could not resist the temptation of the items and went outdoors to look for them. Yin Xun saw that someone had shared the strategies for this.


    The players kept pouring in and Yi Xun felt relieved.


    It was her first time making such a game. Back in her original world, she rarely played games, so she was not very confident this time. She did not expect the results to be so good.


    Seeing that there was nothing else to do with the game, Yin Xun went to deal with the incident regarding the attacker at the press conference yesterday. Some people claimed that she had orchestrated the whole thing. Anyway, she had already called the police. As long as the police investigated the incident, they would be able to clarify this for her.


    As for now¡­


    Yin Xun went downstairs and walked to the Rhythm Short Video office.


    Mary was discussing work with Liu Ying and did not even notice Yin Xun coming over.


    Liu Ying was the first to spot Yin Xun. She smiled and greeted her. ¡°Yin X President Yin, you¡¯re here!¡±


    When Mary heard Liu Ying¡¯s voice, she looked up. When she saw Yin Xun, she told Liu Ying some simple instructions and then gestured for Liu Ying to leave. ¡°President Yin, what¡¯s the matter?¡± she asked Yin Xun after Liu Ying left.


    She could tell that Yin Xun had something weighing her mind.


    ¡°Mary, you¡¯ve been with me for quite some time now. I know what kind of person you are. However, I can¡¯t necessarily say the same for the people around you.¡± Yin Xun calmly walked to Mary¡¯s side and showed her the record of the transaction involving Mark and Chen Jue that Fang Yao had sent her..

 Chapter 660 - Chapter 660: Marks Doing

    Chapter 660: Mark¡¯s Doing


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mary had also watched the live broadcast yesterday. When she saw someone causing trouble halfway through, she was shocked. Fortunately, Yin Xun had bodyguards by her side and caught the troublemaker, so she did not think too much about the incident. After all, Yin Xun was not in danger.


    However, she never expected that Mark was involved in this.


    Mary¡¯s face instantly darkened. After Yin Xun helped her save Mark in the past, she asked Mark to come home, but her mother rejected that idea and insisted that she instead help Mark find a job.


    When Mark assured them that he would work hard, she never dreamed that he would be into this kind of work.


    ¡°President Yin, I¡¯m really sorry. Leave this to me. 1 will definitely give you a satisfactory answer.¡± Mary frowned and apologized to Yin Xun.


    ¡°I trust you can handle it.¡± Yin Xun nodded with a smile and left the Rhythm office.


    Yin Xun knew that this incident had nothing to do with Mary, so she did not blame her. As long as Mary could handle things and there were no lasting negative effects, she would not delve deeper into it.


    After Yin Xun left, Mary immediately called Mark to ask him what was going on.


    ¡°President Yin saved you back then. Besides, don¡¯t you like President Yin? How could you do such a thing?¡± Mary said angrily.


    ¡°Sis, what are you talking about? Yeah, I like Sister Yin Xun, but 1 didn¡¯t do anything wrong. Is it illegal to like her?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not against the law to have a crush on her, but it¡¯s against the law to harm her for money!¡± Mary was so angry that her face turned red. She snarled, ¡°When you were captured by Si Fan, President Yin was the one who saved you. Even if you don¡¯t feel any gratitude, how could you work with Blue Fox to frame President Yin?¡±


    There was a moment of silence before Mark said in a low voice, ¡°Sis, how do you know about this?¡±


    ¡°Cut the crap, I¡¯ve been watching you. 1 know what you¡¯re doing,¡± Mary said grumpily. She decided not to say that Yin Xun was the one who told her about it.


    ¡°Sis, I never meant to frame Sister Yin Xun.¡± Mark sighed. ¡°That person would never actually harm Sister Yin Xun. And 1 have my reasons for doing this. 1 know that Sister Yin Xun has a high status and I¡¯m not worthy of her. However, no matter how high her status is, I can at least try to be her friend, right?¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Mary seemed to understand something and her voice became deeper.


    ¡°She¡¯s been through all sorts of things,¡± said Mark with a cold laugh. ¡°How could she be affected by such a small matter? At most, she¡¯ll just receive a bit of negative news. But to me, this is very important. If I can pretend to help Yin Xun clear up the incident in the name of making an investigation, she will be grateful to me. With that, I will have a reason to contact Yin Xun.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t care what your reason is. Hurry up and apologize to President Yin. Then, go home and find a solid job to make money. You are already this old, and you¡¯re still relying on others to support you. Aren¡¯t you embarrassed?¡± Mary was not expecting Mark to have such goals. Even she would not dare to think of becoming friends with Yin Xun. Mark trying to pursue her was nothing short of wishful thinking.


    ¡°You¡¯re my sister,¡± said Mark unhappily. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with supporting me financially? One of the conditions for Mom and Dad to let you continue your studies was that you would give me some money after you started working. Don¡¯t go back on your word.¡±


    It would have been fine if he had not mentioned this, but the moment Mark said these words, Mary¡¯s temper exploded. Back then, she had relied on her own job to support her studies in school. It had nothing to do with her family. Her parents were simply being biased.


    ¡°Since you don¡¯t listen to my advice, we can only follow the legal procedures. The punishment won¡¯t be light for spreading rumors. I won¡¯t care about you anymore this time.¡±


    Mary was about to hang up the phone when Mark started to panic. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you, Sis? I¡¯m the only son in our family. Are you going to help outsiders sue me?¡±


    ¡°What outsiders? President Yin is my benefactor!¡±


    ¡°But I¡¯m your younger brother. You should always stand by my side! If you dare to take Yin Xun¡¯s side on this, i¡¯ll tell Mom on you!¡± snapped Mark.


    ¡°Fine,¡± Mary said with a laugh. ¡°That¡¯s up to you.. I¡¯ve had enough of you guys!¡±

 Chapter 661 - Chapter 661: Drawing Attention

    Chapter 661: Drawing Attention


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This time, Mary hung up the phone without waiting for Mark¡¯s answer.


    She was so angry that she plopped down on the chair to calm herself down. She thought about her childhood experience. Her parents were so discriminatory that her entire childhood was miserable.


    Even if she was bullied by other children, her parents would only advise her not to get into trouble and to bear with it.


    On the other hand, Mark had been doted on since he was born. Her parents had always been spoiling Mark while she was being exploited. This unfair gap had long been buried in her heart and she had gotten used to it.


    Ever since she saved Mark, she did not want to continue enduring her family¡¯s favoritism. This time, even if she risked being cursed by her family, she would not help Mark anymore.


    The Internet was always leading the pace for Xintao. If the Internet could have a negative impact on Xintao, it would not let go of any opportunity.


    This was usual for business competition, so Yin Xun did not take it to heart at all.


    The Rhythm Short Video platform was on the right track, and Xintao was already firmly in first place. So far, there were no problems. The only thing left was the video game. As long as the game was stable, the navigation system would be able to come online soon after the users helped with gathering geographical information.


    Other than Yin Xun, Xu Lin from Blue Fox had also been keeping an eye on the game.


    He had always been curious as to why Yin Xun was so obsessed with games even though she owned an online shopping company.


    He could still understand the purpose of Rhythm Short Video. It was indeed effective to bring goods to Xintao¡¯s live broadcast. Blue Fox¡¯s investors put some effort into thinking of ways to imitate it.


    However, he could not figure out how this video game could help shopping websites.


    In order to understand his opponent, he had done a thorough investigation on Yin Xun. According to his understanding, Yin Xun was not someone who would do pointless things.


    The game had been online for three days, and Xu Lin had been watching the situation. Seeing that Yin Xun had not made any new moves, he could not help but wonder if he was wrong. Was she really just trying to develop a completely separate project this time?


    In order to answer the doubts in his heart, he also downloaded the Mythology game.


    However, he was stumped the moment he registered. This game was bound to a Xintao account, and he had never used one. After all, he was the vice president of Blue Fox. If he used the Xintao app, would he not become a laughingstock?


    After hesitating for a moment, he told himself that he was doing this to scout out the enemy¡¯s situation, so he registered with a Xintao account.


    Xu Lin was not very young anymore and rarely played games. This was his first time playing one in a while. He followed the game¡¯s tutorial and quickly understood what the game was about.


    It turned out that he was using his energy to draw cards and then duel with others. However, just drawing cards was not enough. If he wanted to beat others, he needed to obtain items.


    The items were distributed in various places. If a player wanted to become stronger, they had to go outdoors. This was a disguised form of forcing others to train in the game.


    As he was focused on the game, Xu Lin suddenly saw a golden light coming from somewhere in the game¡¯s interface. Immediately after that, a pop-up window reminded him that there were items nearby.


    Xu Lin followed the instructions and found that the location was under his desk. He walked to the desk but the game showed that he was still a distance away.


    Seeing that he could not reach it, he crawled under the desk. As expected, a message popped up for the item. He clicked to receive it. He could not help but feel surprised. How was the location sensing so accurate? It could even register such a tiny difference in space.


    He had just casually drawn an SSR-grade card and picked up a golden item. He opened the game forum and found that the discussion was extremely heated.


    Almost everyone complained that they were unlucky. They ran to several places but could never get an SSR card, let alone a high-level item. Those were even harder to get than the cards. They ran to several places but did not even find a single one.


    It seemed that this game was very popular. Xu Lin casually made a post. [This game is kinda average. Other than drawing cards and picking up items, there¡¯s nothing fun to do.]


    After sending the post, he took a screenshot of the moment he drew the card and picked up the item.


    This was a newly registered account. No one knew his identity, so Xu Lin did not think too much about it. However, he had neglected one thing. The screenshot of the item pick-up included his location. He had not turned off the location settings.


    Among the posts, Xu Lin¡¯s post was particularly eye-catching. Soon, netizens started to reply.


    [Ahhh, a gold card and a high-level item. What kind of luck is this? Tell me where this is. I want to pick it up too!]


    [Are your eyes not working? Isn¡¯t there an address on the picture? Blue Fox¡­


    Oh my god, this address is actually within Blue Fox.. So Blue Fox¡¯s staff also use Xintao in private?]

 Chapter 662 - Chapter 662: New Tasks

    Chapter 662: New Tasks


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When someone said that a Blue Fox employee was also playing the game and even made a big commotion when revealing the address, people immediately started to see what was happening.


    Xu Lin¡¯s post was getting more and more popular. He looked at the comments below him that were getting more and more out of hand.


    [Hahaha, I always thought that the two groups were competitors and would never interact with each other. I didn¡¯t expect that they would use Xintao in private. Even Blue Fox has a Xintao account. Perhaps Blue Fox¡¯s own platform is lacking.]


    Other than making fun of him, there were also people who scolded him.


    [Everyone¡¯s posting their bad luck here. Why would a lucky person like you come here to post? Are you showing off?]


    Although Xu Lin did not know what was going on, he could tell that the game was indeed very popular.


    He knew that there were all kinds of people on the Internet, but he did not really care that he was being scolded. He exited the game forum and planned to gather the investors to discuss how to deal with this matter.


    However, as soon as he logged out of the game, an employee who was quite friendly with him sent him a private message. [Vice President Xu, there¡¯s a high-end item in your office. Do you mind if I go over and pick it up?]


    ¡°How did you know?¡± Xu Lin asked in surprise.


    The employee replied, [I saw that you registered for a Xintao account. It was shown in my recommended contacts. When you first registered, anyone who has your phone number and a Xintao account would probably get notified.¡±


    Xu Lin,


    He immediately opened Xintao and logged into the game. Sure enough, he saw many familiar accounts. These were all Blue Fox employees who used Xintao accounts.


    It turned out that everyone was using Xintao in private. Xu Lin was instantly at a loss for words.


    ¡°Why are you playing games during working hours? You should work harder.¡± Xu Lin rejected the employee¡¯s request and left the office to find Le An. He needed to discuss what Blue Fox should do next.


    Yin Xun knew about the internal situation of Blue Fox. No matter if it was something big or small, Dong Zi would report to her immediately. Naturally, she also knew that Blue Fox employees were playing the game.


    She sat in her office and watched the popularity of the game. She smiled faintly.


    These few days, the map¡¯s data was also expanding bit by bit due to the players picking up items. Players were all over the country, and the map database was constantly being updated and optimized.


    Yin Xun was very satisfied with this. When she walked over to the gaming department, Cheng She and Yang Shan were discussing what to do next. When they saw Yin Xun, Cheng She hurried over to her.


    ¡°President Yin, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Cheng She asked.


    Yin Xun said to Cheng She, ¡°Hand over your current work to Yang Shan. Then, come to my office. You¡¯ve completed this task well. 1 have other tasks for you next.¡±


    Cheng She,¡±¡­¡±


    Yin Xun was undoubtedly making the best use of everything. So, should he be feeling happy or sad? He had been working on new projects all the time. This indirectly affirmed his ability, but he could not be too happy either.


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.¡± Although he was a little reluctant, Cheng She still agreed.


    After Yin Xun left, Cheng She began to hand over the work. Although the situation happened very suddenly, he managed to get it done in an orderly manner. After the handover, Cheng She went to Yin Xun¡¯s office.


    Yin Xun handed a folder to Cheng She and said, ¡°Now that the game is complete, there seems to be no problems with it. It¡¯s very stable. Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll give you another mission. You¡¯ll be in charge of the mapping department. You can check it out yourself. If there¡¯s anything you don¡¯t understand, feel free to ask me.¡±


    Cheng She opened the folder and looked at the plans inside. He was shocked.


    He only knew a little bit of this information before, so he did not know what Yin Xun was really planning. He had wondered what the game had to do with mapping. Even if a digital map was completed, how useful would it be to Xintao?


    Now that he saw the proposal, he finally understood. Yin Xun was making a map and expanding the data not only to facilitate the operations of the express delivery company. She also planned a separate project¡ªmaking an online taxi service.


    With the navigation system, it would be very convenient for Xintao to do any new business in the future.


    Thinking of this, Cheng She could not help but feel excited. There was no doubt about Yin Xun¡¯s business acumen. She managed to come up with such an interconnected project.


    The pitiful Si Fan thought that Yin Xun could only rely on others and did nothing herself. What a shame. Si Fan was not worthy of challenging Yin Xun in his entire life. He did not have the smarts to do so..

 Chapter 663 - Chapter 663: Threatened

    Chapter 663: Threatened


    Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At this moment, Cheng She believed that Yin Xun was several levels higher than Si Fan. He suddenly had a feeling that Yin Xun could really be his salvation!


    As of now, Cheng She could be sure that the Fang family was definitely on Yin Xun¡¯s side. Even if anything happened to Xintao, the Fang family was strong enough to easily turn things around.


    Even the investors from Blue Fox combined could not defeat the Fang family, so Yin Xun definitely had nothing to worry about in the future.


    ¡°Cheng She?¡± Yin Xun saw that Cheng She had been in a daze. She called out to him a few times and asked in confusion, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? Do you think this project is too difficult? If there¡¯s any problem, don¡¯t worry about it and tell me directly.¡±


    Cheng She was even more emotional when he saw Yin Xun comforting him. He was still a little conflicted at first, but he suddenly made up his mind at that moment.


    He suddenly stood up straight and stared nervously into Yin Xun¡¯s eyes. ¡°President Yin¡­ Can 1 ask for a favor?¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned. This was the first time Cheng She had said something like this since he came to Xintao.


    Usually, even if he encountered a great difficulty during a project, Cheng She would find a way to solve it himself. Looking at Cheng She¡¯s incredibly serious and nervous expression, she could vaguely guess what this was about.


    ¡°Just say it. As long as it¡¯s something within my capability, 1¡¯11 do my best to help.¡± Yin Xun¡¯s expression became more serious too.


    Cheng She took a deep breath. It was as if he was cheering himself on. After a long time, he finally said, ¡°President Yin, I¡¯m sorry. You were right. 1 was sent here by Si Fan as a spy.¡±


    ¡°I know.¡± Yim Xun nodded.


    Cheng She continued, ¡°You asked me if 1 had anything to say to you before. Actually, you guessed right. The reason 1 agreed to this was because Si Fan threatened me using my parents!¡±


    Then, Cheng She explained to Yin Xun how he had been threatened by Si Fan.


    Si Fan was not a trusting person. Although Cheng She had been with him for many years and had been working hard for Blue Fox, in his eyes, no one was worthy of trust.


    From the beginning, when Si Fan asked Cheng She to be a spy, he tempted him with all kinds of benefits and promises. When Cheng She finally entered Xintao, however, Si Fan¡¯s paranoia acted up again.


    In order to prevent Cheng She from disobeying him, Si Fan sent someone to Cheng She¡¯s hometown to look after his parents. However, this was all done secretly. His parents did not know anything about this and were still living as usual. However, Cheng She knew that if he did anything that made Si Fan unhappy, his parents would suffer.


    Just look at how Si Fan had kidnapped people for no reason in the past. There was no doubt he was capable of doing such things.


    Cheng She did not dare to call the police. He was afraid that Si Fan would pull the trigger the moment he called the authorities.


    Hearing Cheng She¡¯s account, Yin Xun was instantly furious as well. She always knew that Si Fan was like this. He would do anything to achieve his goal.


    ¡°He simply isn¡¯t human,¡± Yin Xun cursed.


    ¡°Actually, I¡¯ve wanted to leave Blue Fox for a long time, but I did not have the choice. I knew too much about Si Fan and was afraid that he would kill me just to silence me. I heard from a friend that the benefits offered by Xintao are good, which made many Blue Fox employees quit their jobs to come here. However, 1 never dared to let it show because of my status.¡±


    Cheng She frowned. His face was scrunched up with worry. He looked at Yin Xun expectantly and asked, ¡°President Yin, could you¡­ could you help me save my parents?¡±


    ¡°Does Si Fan have someone keeping an eye on your parents?¡± Yin Xun asked after thinking for a moment.


    Cheng She nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right. Actually, I¡¯ve thought of taking them somewhere else, but something happened when I tried to go back and see them during the last holiday. Before 1 even reached my hometown, Si Fan demanded 1 tell him why was going back. He doesn¡¯t want me to go there at all. He wasn¡¯t just monitoring my parents, but me as well. As long as I made any unusual movements, he would be on guard. If I do anything abnormal, he will immediately assume that 1 am betraying him.¡±


    Now, Si Fan was watching Cheng She very closely. After all, he was relying on Cheng She to make his comeback. Without Cheng She on his side, how could he take back control of Blue Fox from Le An by himself?


    ¡°Cheng She, since you told me all this, it means that you trust me, right?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Cheng She nodded.


    Yin Xun smiled. ¡°Since you trust me, tell me the address of your hometown, and let me handle this. I promise to bring your parents safely out of Si Fan¡¯s sight.¡±


    As for what method she would use, Yin Xun did not say.


    Cheng She looked at Yin Xun. Although Yin Xun was much younger than him, he instinctively believed Yin Xun¡¯s declaration.


    ¡°Okay, President Yin.. If you can help me resolve this, I promise I will work hard to repay you in the future!¡±

    Yin Xun raised her eyebrows. ¡°There¡¯s no need to repay me. Your hard work is good enough.¡±


    After letting Cheng She leave, Yin Xun sat on the chair and began to think about how to deal with Si Fan.


    Originally, she could have told Cheng She the method and let him handle it himself. However, Cheng She was just an ordinary worker. He did not have many connections. She was afraid that he would not even be able to guarantee his own safety.


    Since Si Fan always used underhanded violence to resolve things, she would not hesitate to use similar methods to retaliate.


    She picked up her phone and called Shu Yi. Shu Yi was the best at dealing with such matters. As expected, when Shu Yi heard her request, she assured Yin Xun that she could get it done.


    Yin Xun hung up the call. Just as she placed her phone on the table, it rang again.


    She picked it up and saw that it was Wu Li calling.


    She pressed the answer button and heard Wu Li¡¯s anxious voice, ¡°Xun, can you come back home now? Your brother and your father are arguing again!¡±


    ¡°Lil Rui is home?¡± Yin Xun was a little surprised. She looked at the calendar beside her. The promised date had arrived. ¡°Isn¡¯t it normal for Lil Rui to quarrel with Dad?¡±


    Wu Li said anxiously, ¡°They¡¯re arguing about Mo¡¯er¡­¡±


    Yin Xun was slightly stunned. Did Yin Mo not cut off all ties with the Yin family? Why would they be in contact with her again?


    However, this matter could not be briefly explained over the phone. Yin Xun said comfortingly, ¡°Mom, don¡¯t worry. 1¡¯11 go back now.¡±


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll wait for you at home,¡± Wu Li said and hung up.


    Yin Xun immediately got up and drove to the Yin family¡¯s villa. Fortunately, there were other people in charge of the company¡¯s matters. Even if she left now, things would be fine.


    Soon, Yin Xun arrived at the Yin residence. She got out of the car and saw Wu Li anxiously waiting for her at the door.


    The moment Wu Li saw Yin Xun, although she still looked worried, Yin Xun could tell that she was more relieved already.


    ¡°Xun, you¡¯re finally back. Go inside and persuade them to stop fighting!¡±


    Yin Xun nodded and quickly walked into the house. Just as she reached the living room door, she heard Yin Cheng and Yin Rui arguing.


    ¡°¡­You were the one who brought the child into the world. It¡¯s your responsibility to discipline them. Because of your pampering, Second Sister became like this. She is at fault, clearly, but why don¡¯t you reflect on yourself too?¡± Yin Rui shouted.


    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s my fault for spoiling the child. Isn¡¯t it the result of my pampering that you¡¯re quarreling with me now?! I shouldn¡¯t have had you two. We should have stopped having kids after your big sister was born. Your big sister doesn¡¯t make us worry at all. It would have been great if she was the only one!¡± Yin Cheng was so angry that the veins on his head were throbbing.


    It was hard to tell how long the two of them had been arguing. Yin Cheng was gripping a wooden stick in his hand as he sat on the sofa, panting. Yin Rui was obviously wary of being hit, so he stood as far as he could opposite Yin Cheng.


    Yin Xun sighed helplessly. When Yin Cheng faced Yin Rui, his temper would never be good. He was probably thinking of beating the kid to a pulp.


    As the two of them argued, Yin Rui suddenly saw Yin Xun. He hurriedly rushed toward Yin Xun and shouted at Yin Cheng, ¡°Big Sister is back. She¡¯ll help me reason with you!¡±


    Before Yin Rui could get closer to Yin Xun¡¯s side, Yin Xun grabbed him and held him still.


    ¡°Alright, stop fooling around. Tell me what¡¯s going on first.¡± Yin Xun pulled Yin Rui back toward Yin Cheng. Although Yin Rui was very reluctant, he still obediently followed Yin Xun.


    ¡°Dad, give me the stick.¡± When she walked to Yin Cheng, Yin Xun reached out and took the wooden stick from him.


    When Yin Rui saw that the wooden stick was gone, he made a face at Yin Cheng smugly. Yin Cheng was so furious that he wanted to get up and beat him up again.


    When Yin Xun saw this, she raised her hand and knocked Yin Rui¡¯s head. Yin Rui yelped in pain before he calmed down.


    ¡°Tell me, why were you quarreling again?¡± Yin Xun pushed Yin Rui down onto the sofa and questioned him.


    Yin Cheng said unhappily, ¡°This kid went out to work for a few days and thought that he¡¯s all grown up now. He started preaching to me. At first, he was quite happy that he was back home and that school was about to start. 1 planned to let him rest at home for a few days. But as soon as he got home, he started scolding me. It¡¯s all because of your younger sister.¡±


    ¡°Yin Mo? What happened to her?¡± Yin Xun asked.


    ¡°I asked this brat the same thing, but he didn¡¯t say anything. When he came back, he just quarreled with me. The child has grown up and thinks his wings have spread.¡± Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at Yin Rui.


    Yin Rui looked at Yin Cheng and frowned. After a moment of silence, he said, ¡°What big mistake did Second Sister even make? You went as far as to chase her out.. Can¡¯t 1 feel sorry for her?¡±

    ¡°Why are you still bringing this up? Didn¡¯t I already tell you about this?¡± Yin Cheng was so angry that the whites of his eyes were showing.


    However, Yin Rui did not elaborate. Yin Xun looked deeply at her brother and said calmly, ¡°Alright, I will explain this matter to Lil Rui in detail later. It has been so long already. Let¡¯s not bring it up again.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll leave this to you.¡± Yin Cheng waved his hand dismissively, indicating that he was very tired at the moment.


    The incident ended like it was nothing but an interlude, and the family sat down to eat.


    The atmosphere at the dining table was a little strange as no one spoke. In order to ease the atmosphere, We Li kept asking Yin Rui about his construction site work. Yin Rui talked a lot about himself and his colleagues, and the atmosphere at the dining table finally lightened up.


    After the meal, Yin Rui seemed to be dejected again. He glanced at Yin Xun a few times and finally walked to his room, but Yin Xun stopped him.


    ¡°Lil Rui, come with me.¡± After Yin Xun finished speaking, she went upstairs.


    Yin Rui followed her. The two of them walked to the roof and looked down at the neighborhood. Yin Xun crossed her arms and asked Yin Rui, ¡°Lil Rui, you had something else you wanted to talk about, right? What happened? Can you tell me?¡±


    ¡°Big Sis, I¡­If 1 tell you, will you be angry?¡± Yin Rui asked worriedly.


    ¡°Whether I¡¯ll be angry or not depends on what¡¯s going on. But don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t hit you like Dad did,¡± Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui and said.


    Yin Rui was a little hesitant. Yin Xun did not urge him and let him think it through himself.


    After a while, Yin Rui finally spoke. ¡°Actually, Second Sister called me. She¡­She asked me for help.¡±


    Yin Xun suddenly had a bad feeling.


    ¡°Second Sister was pregnant, but Si Xia did not want that, so she ordered someone to send her for an abortion. Second Sister refused, and when she was arguing with the servants, she accidentally fell down the stairs. She had a miscarriage and her condition is pretty bad¡­¡±


    Yin Xun,¡±¡­¡±


    ¡°I know Second Sister did a lot of wrong things in the past, but if something like this happened to her, how could I ignore her?¡± Yin Rui pressed on. ¡°Moreover, she only asked me to call Gu Wei for help, which 1 did, but in the end¡­¡±


    Yin Rui paused.


    Yin Xun knew who Gu Wei was. He had appeared in a novel before. The man was Yin Mo¡¯s fiance and the second male lead in the romance story.


    Gu Wei¡¯s family was also very rich, and he was very devoted to Yin Mo. Originally, the parents of both families thought that the two of them would definitely be together and even considered a wedding date. However, Si Fan¡¯s sudden appearance would change everything.


    After Si Fan and Yin Mo got together, the engagement with Gu Wei was canceled. However, this did not prevent Gu Wei from continuing to have feelings for Yin Mo. As long as Yin Mo was in trouble, Gu Wei would help.


    However, Si Fan¡¯s eyes could not tolerate this annoyance. He saw that Yin Mo and Gu Wei were very close, and knew the two of them had a previous engagement. He was worried that Yin Mo would cheat on him, so he beat Yin Mo up and forced her to cut ties with Gu Wei.


    Therefore, when Yin Mo was in danger, she tried to ask Gu Wei for help, but she did not have his contact information.


    ¡°In the end, Gu Wei was betrayed by Yin Mo and was arrested by the police,¡± Yin Xun finished Yin Rui¡¯s sentence.


    ¡°Big Sis, how did you know?¡± Yin Rui asked in surprise.


    ¡°I guessed,¡± Yin Xun said evenly.


    ¡°You¡¯re amazing as always.¡± Yin Rui gave Yin Xun a thumbs up. ¡°But Big Sis, how could Second Sister do this? She was the one who asked for help. Gu Wei even stood up to Si Fan because of her. In the end, Second Sister betrayed Brother Gu Wei and insisted that Si Fan never hurt her, causing Brother Gu Wei to be arrested. Can you help him out? I don¡¯t want him to suffer just because he was being kind.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Sure, I¡¯ll get someone to help later.¡±


    Seeing that Yin Xun had agreed to help, Yin Rui let out a long sigh of relief. He then smiled bitterly and asked, ¡°Big Sis, why do you think Second Sister did this? She went out of her way to ask for help, but then she hurt the person who helped her.¡±


    ¡°She just wants to get out of her current predicament. At the same time, she can¡¯t destroy the relationship between her and Si Fan. Although there have been no feelings between them for a long time, Si Fan is the only person Yin Mo can rely on now,¡± Yin Xun explained.


    Yin Rui asked Yin Xun guiltily, ¡°Big Sis, did I get into trouble? The reason I quarreled with Dad just now was actually because of Second Sister. Our family was peaceful in the past, but it became like this now because of Second Sister¡¯s stubbornness.. When I heard that Brother Gu Wei was sent to prison by Second Sister, I was so anxious and¡­¡±

    Yin Xun gently patted Yin Rui¡¯s shoulder and comforted him. ¡°It¡¯s okay. Dad and Mom won¡¯t actually stay angry with you. Apologize to them later. They don¡¯t feel good about what happened to Yin Mo either. Just don¡¯t throw a tantrum at them because of her next time.¡±


    ¡°Alright, Big Sis. 1 won¡¯t do it again,¡± Yin Rui promised. ¡°By the way, Big Sis, I¡¯ve been working at the construction site for so long. When the time comes, please remind the finance department not to forget to pay me my salary.¡±


    Yin Xun looked at Yin Rui and asked, ¡°What salary?¡±


    Yin Rui frowned and said, ¡°Come on, Sis. Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re not going to fork out this small amount of money? I¡¯m your biological brother. You can¡¯t use the same method to deal with employees against me!¡± Then, he said quietly, ¡°You¡¯re an evil capitalist.¡±


    ¡°What do you mean by dealing with the employees?¡± Yin Xun raised her hand and gave Yin Rui a knock on the head. It was so painful that Yin Rui¡¯s eyes turned red. ¡°Rascal, how dare you scold your big sister!¡±


    ¡°My bad, Big Sis!¡± Yin Rui immediately apologized. ¡°Then will you give me some money as a reward?¡±


    ¡°Dream on. Do you think I¡¯ll make a loss?¡± Yin Xun raised her eyebrows.


    Yin Rui,¡±¡­¡±


    As expected, the woman was a miser.


    Regarding Gu Wei¡¯s matter, Yin Xun quickly resolved it and found someone to bail him out. At the same time, she sent someone to spy on Yin Mo and found out that Yin Mo¡¯s current state of health was indeed pretty bad. It was nearing the time for her to exchange her heart with Si Xia.


    With Yin Mo¡¯s current physical condition, she would definitely die if her heart was replaced.


    However, Yin Xun was not too worried about this because Yin Mo had the halo of a protagonist. She would not die, though she would definitely suffer.


    With the incident in Cheng She¡¯s hometown, Yin Xun also received some news.


    Shu Yi called and told her that she had successfully taken Cheng She¡¯s parents away and would be back soon.


    As for where his parents would live in the future, she could just ask for their opinion.


    At this moment, Yin Xun was at home, planning to call Cheng She to inform him of this news. However, when she called, she was unable to get through. Cheng She was currently on the phone with Si Fan.


    ¡°Cheng She, who are the people who visited your parents?¡± Si Fan went straight to the point.


    This call was very sudden. Although Yin Xun had promised to help him resolve this matter back then, she had not explained when and how she would do it.


    After spending so much time together, Cheng She had an inexplicable feeling of trust in Yin Xun.


    Because he did not know the current status, when Si Fan called him, he picked up without preparing. When he heard Si Fan¡¯s question, he was stunned for a moment and immediately realized that Yin Xun had made a move.


    How should he answer? He definitely could not tell the truth. He would hide it for as long as he could. He would try his best not to implicate Yin Xun in order to ensure his parents¡¯ safety.


    The phone remained silent. Si Fan continued to ask impatiently, ¡°Cheng She, are you deaf? I¡¯m talking to you. Who exactly came to pick up your parents? Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯ve joined forces with Yin Xun and plan to betray me?¡±


    ¡°What people? What happened to my parents? President Si, did something happen to my parents?¡± Cheng She immediately put on an anxious act.


    Cheng She¡¯s acting was so good that Si Fan was deceived. He asked in confusion, ¡°You don¡¯t know?¡±


    ¡°I really don¡¯t. President Si, what¡¯s wrong with my parents? Can you tell me more? I¡¯m worried for them¡­¡± Cheng Shi asked anxiously.


    Si Fan said in a deep voice, ¡°Since you don¡¯t know, wait for me to investigate.¡± ¡°Thank you, President Si. Sorry to trouble you!¡± Cheng She thanked him.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Si Fan said, ¡°Cheng She, you should at least know who the best choice is to work for, right? You¡¯ve been with me for so long. You know very well what kind of person I am.¡±


    Cheng She quickly made his stance clear. ¡°Of course, President Si. I¡¯ve been with you for this long because of your ability. Don¡¯t worry, if there¡¯s anything I¡¯m good at, it¡¯s choosing the right people.¡±


    Yin Xun was incredibly capable and treated her employees very well. Naturally, he had to choose her, Cheng She thought to himself.


    After Cheng She made a series of assurances, Si Fan hung up the phone. What he needed to do now was to think of a way to control Cheng She¡¯s parents again. Otherwise, he would not feel calm.


    However, there was one thing that he could sense. This matter was not a straightforward one. Although only a small group of people came to look for Cheng She¡¯s parents, all of them could fight. The people he had sent to monitor Cheng She¡¯s parents could not defeat them..

    Si Fan immediately got someone to investigate this matter. Without Cheng She¡¯s parents as hostages, he could not trust Cheng She.


    After Cheng She ended the call with Si Fan, he saw Yin Xun¡¯s missed call. He immediately guessed that it must be related to his parents and quickly called Yin Xun back.


    ¡°President Yin, Si Fan called me just now. It was about my parents.¡± Cheng She told Yin Xun everything that he had just said to Si Fan.


    ¡°Yes, I guessed that would be the case. Although I¡¯m sure you¡¯re worried about your parents, you can¡¯t visit them now. Si Fan will definitely get someone to keep an eye on you. If you go, he¡¯ll immediately find out your parents¡¯ location. Your parents will only be fully safe after we send them to a secure place and get rid of Si Fan.¡±


    Yin Xun said, ¡°Cheng She, you¡¯ve been with Si Fan for so long. I believe you should have some evidence of him breaking the law. If I can guarantee your parents¡¯ safety, are you willing to give me this evidence?¡±


    Cheng She froze for a moment before he asked her worriedly, ¡°President Yin, you mean¡­¡±


    When Yin Xun heard Cheng She¡¯s nervousness, she realized that Cheng Shen had misunderstood. He probably thought that she was using his parents to threaten him like Si Fan.


    Yin Xun smiled helplessly and explained, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t use your parents to threaten you. I¡¯m stopping you from seeing your parents for their safety. Of course, if you don¡¯t like this and are worried that Si Fan will take revenge, then pretend that I said nothing. You can continue working as usual.¡±


    Cheng She heaved a sigh of relief and said, ¡°President Yin, at a time like this, I can¡¯t stay out of Si Fan¡¯s business even if I wanted to. Moreover, I have already said that if you help to save my parents, 1 will repay you. Actually, back then, in order to give myself an escape route, I did leave behind some evidence of Si Fan breaking the law. When you arrive at the office, 1 will hand it over to you. But¡­¡±


    Cheng She added worriedly, ¡°After I give it to you, it means that I¡¯m fully on your side from now on, so please trust me.¡±


    ¡°Of course, don¡¯t worry.¡± Yin Xun smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s just that to Si Fan, you¡¯re an asset that can help him make a comeback. He definitely won¡¯t let you go easily. As for your parents, he¡¯ll definitely send people to search everywhere. So I think it¡¯s better to send your parents overseas. No matter how powerful Si Fan is, he can¡¯t extend his hand to another country.¡±


    ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll follow your plan. President Yin, thank you!¡± Cheng She thanked her earnestly.


    After hanging up the phone, Yin Xun got someone to help Cheng She¡¯s parents with the procedures to move overseas.


    The next day, in the Blue Fox office¡­


    For the past few days, Xu Lin had been keeping an eye on Xintao¡¯s situation. Since Xintao already had a popular online presence, everyone was more focused on the game now. However, knowing Yin Xun¡¯s personality, Xu Lin was sure that she would do something else next.


    However, after watching for so many days, he did not see any abnormalities. He could not help but wonder if he was really overthinking.


    Recently, Yin Xun had been very quiet. It was as if Xintao had reached the end of its development and Yin Xun did not plan to do anything more. This made him very worried.


    Looking at the game on his phone, Xu Lin clicked on the card draw interface. In order to draw a few more cards, he did not drive to work himself. Instead, he took the bus and walked the rest of the way himself. This way, he could accumulate more energy points.


    He had been playing this game for several days and did not see anything abnormal. He thought that if there were still no changes in both of these things, he would soon uninstall the game.


    While he was deep in thought, there was a knock on the office door.


    Xu Lin said in a deep voice, ¡°Come in.¡±


    It was his assistant. ¡°Boss, Director Liu and the others are waiting for you in the office. They said they¡¯re having a meeting.¡±


    Hearing his assistant¡¯s words, Xu Lin immediately felt frustrated.


    Regarding the matter of dealing with Xintao, those directors clearly could not come up with a solution, but they were so nitpicky and criticized him for not making any breakthroughs.


    The directors never listened to his opinions and blamed him for not being able to do anything. Xu Lin took a deep breath. He had no choice. He was just a lowly worker. Even if he was being exploited, he could only endure it.


    Xu Lin logged out of the game, got up, and went to the conference room. When he arrived, he found that almost all the investors were present. It seemed like this meeting was a very important one. There were a lot of people here, even Chen Jue.


    Le An looked at Xu Lin and asked him meaningfully, ¡°Lil Xu, how long has it been since Blue Fox and Xintao began fighting? 1 handed this responsibility to you because I know what you¡¯re capable of and I was confident you could resolve it. However, after so long, not only did you not produce any results, but the gap between Blue Fox and Xintao has grown even larger..¡±

 Chapter 668 - Chapter 668: Betrayed Blue Fox

    Chapter 668: Betrayed Blue Fox


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Hearing Le An¡¯s words, Xu Lin immediately knew what was happening. This meeting was not to discuss how to improve the company, but to call him out.


    Xu Lin said in a deep voice, ¡°President Le, you¡¯ve attended a few ordinary meetings. Basically, 1 don¡¯t have the right to make any decisions. I gave a few suggestions, but no one listened.¡±


    Chen Jue said unhappily, ¡°Xu Lin, what do you mean? If you¡¯re dissatisfied with us, you can just say it. Don¡¯t beat around the bush. Our company is giving you a salary so that you can work, not complain!¡±


    ¡°Alright, it¡¯s useless to say so much now. The most important thing now is to think of a way to deal with Xintao,¡± Liu Yi quickly said to ease the atmosphere.


    He asked Xu Lin, ¡°Lil Xu, because of the game, Xintao¡¯s popularity is even higher than before. Also, we just found out that the warehouses rented by Speedy Express belonged to the Yin family. We also considered what you said about grading the delivery and tried to return a few warehouses. However, the Yin family didn¡¯t agree to this and wouldn¡¯t accept the benefits we offered. They insisted on following through with the contract. If we terminate the contract, we will have to pay a large sum of compensation for breach of contract.¡±


    Xu Lin frowned and said, ¡°Dear directors, it¡¯s not like there¡¯s no way to save Blue Fox now. At present, the biggest difference between us and Xintao is express delivery. The reason Xintao has no scruples is that their express delivery system is already mature and belongs to their own group. They don¡¯t have to worry about being affected by the market. On the other hand, our express delivery is being outsourced.¡±


    At this point, Xu Lin glanced at Sun Lei, who was looking at him unkindly.


    However, even if he was hated by Sun Lei for this, he still had to say it for the sake of Blue Fox¡¯s future development.


    ¡°If possible, 1 think we should focus on developing our own Zhongda Express Delivery. Even if we develop Speedy Express as well, it¡¯s fine. However, I hope that Speedy Express Delivery will cooperate with us and build an exclusive express delivery that only works for Blue Fox!¡± Xu Lin explained his idea.


    Sun Lei looked at Xu Lin with a hostile gaze. At this moment, it looked like he wanted to devour Xu Lin.


    Back then, Blue Fox used his express delivery for their own experiments. After seeing that the results were not great, they suddenly wanted to withdraw the investment and seize the express delivery. If Speedy became Blue Fox¡¯s exclusive delivery, he would suffer a loss.


    Sun Lei thought for a moment and said, ¡°I object!¡±


    Everyone looked at him. Sun Lei cleared his throat and said, ¡°Dear directors, please allow me to digress. Until now, Blue Fox has been suppressed by Xintao. The root cause is not express delivery. Think about it, Blue Fox¡¯s express delivery is divided into grades. There are deliveries that can arrive every other day, and there are ordinary express deliveries that take up to a few days. For the faster service, the user has to bear the delivery fee alone. In order to save money, some users will still choose ordinary express delivery.


    ¡°However, Xintao¡¯s normal delivery speed is not as fast as ours. What¡¯s more, Speedy is free for users and very cheap for merchants.


    ¡°The actual problem is that Xu Lin has been helping outsiders. On the surface, he¡¯s working for Blue Fox, but behind our back, he¡¯s been secretly causing trouble!¡±


    Xu Lin was stunned. He snarled, ¡°Sun Lei, do you know what you¡¯re saying? What evidence do you have to slander me like this?¡±


    ¡°Why? Are you getting angry because I hit the nail on the head?¡± Sun Lei sneered. ¡°Don¡¯t think 1 don¡¯t know that you¡¯re in contact with Cheng She. In fact, you want to jump ship to Xintao like he did.¡±


    Seeing that the directors were looking at him warily, Xu Lin said angrily, ¡°Sun Lei, you failed to pull me to your side in the past, so you want to frame me now? You¡¯re wasting your time. What evidence do you have?¡±


    ¡°Evidence? Of course, 1 do.¡± Sun Lei looked at Xu Lin¡¯s phone and sneered. ¡°Do you dare to take out your phone now and show the directors that the vice president of Blue Fox was actually playing with Xintao¡¯s app during working hours? Also, look at the call records. You don¡¯t have any personal relationship with Cheng She, right? Why did you contact him?¡±


    Chen Jue looked at Xu Lin and asked, ¡°Xu Lin, what do you say? Can you show us your phone? Of course, it¡¯s up to you whether you want to show us or not, but you know what you need to do to prove yourself.¡±


    Xu Lin¡¯s pupils constricted instantly. He looked at Sun Lei in shock. How did Sun Lei know about such a private matter?


    Although he did not do anything to harm the company, he had indeed called Cheng She. If he showed the directors, it meant that what Sun Lei said was true. If he did not show it to them, they would definitely be suspicious of him. He feared he would not be able to keep his position.


    At this moment, he was in a dilemma. In the end, Xu Lin chose to show everyone his phone..

    ¡°There¡¯s no rule that we can¡¯t play a game made by the other party. Besides, I¡¯m just trying to observe Xintao.¡± Xu Lin tried to maintain his calm and handed the phone to Le An.


    Among these people, he still had trust in Le An. After all, Le An was the one who promoted him.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, we will only check the game and phone records. We won¡¯t look at anything else,¡± Le An said and clicked on it. As expected, he saw the phone records of Xu Lin and Cheng She. The call was pretty lengthy.


    Xu Lin explained, ¡°I called Cheng She to see if I could get any useful information from him.¡±


    ¡°Then tell me, what news do you have from Xintao now?¡± Sun Lei asked coldly.


    Xu Lin was instantly speechless. He had been paying attention to Xintao for a long time, but he could not tell what other actions Xintao had made.


    Sun Lei said, ¡°You¡¯ve done so many investigations and still know nothing, but 1 do. Xintao is currently researching voice navigation technology and intends to add navigation to their delivery system. Vice President Xu, I don¡¯t believe you can¡¯t even find out this much. Or do you not want to tell us at all?¡±


    ¡°What kind of news is this?¡± Xu Lin frowned. ¡°The information I mentioned is all useful. 1 know about this too, but it¡¯s not useful when it comes to upgrading Blue Fox!¡±


    ¡°Alright, everyone¡¯s goal is to develop Blue Fox. Stop arguing!¡± Le An finally spoke. His gaze swept between Xu Lin and Sun Lei as he said, ¡°Lil Xu is not the kind of person who would betray us, so don¡¯t misunderstand him. However, Boss Sun is right about one thing. Lil Xu might not be suitable to be in charge of this. Why don¡¯t we just leave this matter to someone else? Lil Xu can be in charge of other projects.¡±


    Sun Lei looked at Xu Lin and flashed a smug smile. Xu Lin, on the other hand, stared at Le An in shock. So¡­ he had been transferred out of his post?


    He looked at the people in the meeting room. They had gentle smiles on the surface, but in fact, they were only thinking about their own interests. Who was really thinking of helping Blue Fox?


    To them, all that mattered was appearances. Just as Yin Xun had said, if everyone had not been so competitive from the beginning and only focused on improving their own services, the large market could easily accommodate the two companies.


    Blue Fox had reached their current predicament because of these people¡¯s arrogance.


    ¡°Very well.¡± Xu Lin agreed helplessly.


    In the afternoon, Cheng She and Yin Xun were collating evidence about Si Fan¡¯s crimes.


    Suddenly, Cheng She¡¯s phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Si Fan calling.


    ¡°President Yin, it¡¯s Si Fan. Should 1 pick it up now?¡± Cheng She asked Yin Xun.


    Yin Xun nodded. ¡°Just do as we agreed.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Cheng She said and pressed the answer button. Si Fan¡¯s pleased voice came from the phone.


    ¡°Hahaha, Cheng She, you¡¯re better than 1 thought. You actually got rid of Xu Lin without my instructions. Well done, well done,¡± Si Fan said with a laugh.


    Cheng She had already heard from Yin Xun about Xu Lin¡¯s transfer, although he did not know how Yin Xun knew about it so quickly.


    Xu Lin was a good manager. His removal meant that Blue Fox had lost a capable assistant. He wondered why Si Fan was so happy about this.


    Si Fan continued, ¡°Now that Blue Fox is in such a mess, no one knows Blue Fox and Xintao better than me. So it won¡¯t be long before they invite me back. When the time comes, I¡¯ll be able to control Blue Fox again. As for Yin Xun, she should just wait to be trampled on!¡±


    ¡°President Si, you¡¯re amazing.¡± Cheng She praised him perfunctorily. However, he was cursing Si Fan in his heart. Si Fan¡¯s happiness would not last for long; he would be going to jail soon.


    ¡°By the way, regarding your parents, it was indeed Yin Xun who found someone to capture them. 1 told you that Yin Xun can¡¯t be trusted. My guess is that she wants to use your parents to threaten you because she¡¯s wary of you. But don¡¯t worry. If you help me, 1¡¯11 protect your parents.¡±


    Cheng She said, ¡°¡­Then 1¡¯11 have to trouble you, President Si.¡±


    Si Fan did not notice that there was something odd with Cheng She¡¯s tone. He basked in the feeling of self-satisfaction for a moment before hanging up.


    ¡°President Yin, Xu Lin is completely loyal to Blue Fox, but he has been pushed around a lot. 1 think he must feel a lot of resentment toward Blue Fox now. He¡¯s been demoted and his salary has been lowered, while he still needs to pay the mortgage on his house and car. It does not seem like he will be able to provide for his family¡¯s expenses. If that¡¯s the case, why don¡¯t we ask him for help? Back then, when Si Fan was stealing secrets from Blue Fox, the surveillance footage was deleted. In reality, 1 left a backup copy in the company¡¯s computer, but the old computer was discarded and thrown into the warehouse..¡±

    ¡°A discarded computer?¡± Yin Xun was surprised. ¡°Aren¡¯t you afraid that they¡¯ll dispose of it?¡±


    ¡°No, I¡¯m very close to the warehouse manager,¡± Cheng She said with a smile.


    ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll leave this to you. The more evidence there is, the stronger the charge we can pin on Si Fan. He won¡¯t be able to get out of this through his connections. Once Si Fan is gone, you don¡¯t have to worry about him any longer,¡± Yin Xun said.


    Cheng She called Xu Lin, who sounded very surprised when he picked up the call. He probably never dreamed that Cheng She would call him on his own accord.


    Cheng She went straight to the point and explained that he was willing to recommend Xu Lin for a job. It was not for Xintao, but another company, so Xu Lin did not have to worry about being criticized by others. However, he only had one request, and that was to help him apprehend Si Fan.


    Initially, Xu Lin was still hesitant, but when he thought about how he had been ostracized at Blue Fox, he could not help but feel discontent with the company. Even though he had been wholeheartedly devoted to Blue Fox, he had still been thrown aside at the end. Cheng She¡¯s conditions were indeed tempting, so Xu Lin agreed.


    Regarding the evidence on Si Fan, other than what Cheng She knew, Yin Xun also found He Lan.


    He Lan already knew about the things Chi Bo had done and was plenty dissatisfied. When she heard that Yin Xun had a plan to take Si Fan down, she wasted no time in forcing Chi Bo to retrieve the evidence of Si Fan¡¯s kidnappings and handed it to Yin Xun.


    All the evidence was sorted out and finally handed over to some reliable people by Fang Yao. They were all Fang Yao¡¯s people, so there was no need to worry that Si Fan would find someone to interfere.


    After Yin Xun was done with the matters here, she finally asked Yin Cheng to bring the whole family over to the villa in the suburbs for dinner.


    ¡°Xun, why didn¡¯t you tell us that Fang Yao lives next door?¡± Yin Cheng asked Yin Xun in surprise. A while ago, when he saw the butler delivering food to them, he realized that his eldest daughter was actually Fang Yao¡¯s neighbor. At that moment, he understood what Yin Xun had done to successfully make Fang Yao invest in her; it turned out they had this kind of relationship.


    ¡°Xun, is there something more between you and Fang Yao that you¡¯re hiding from me?¡± Yin Cheng called Yin Xun to the side and asked her softly with a smile.


    ¡°No.¡± Yin Xun was stunned for a moment before she replied. Was there anything going on between her and Fang Yao? She did not know anything either.


    Yin Cheng was not willing to leave it at that. He pressed, ¡°The way that kid looked at you doesn¡¯t seem normal. Are you sure that you¡¯re not dating him behind Daddy¡¯s back?¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Yin Xun said with a smile. ¡°You¡¯re overthinking it. We¡¯re purely business partners.¡±


    ¡°Is that so? That¡¯s a pity,¡± Yin Cheng said regretfully. ¡°Actually, I¡¯m quite optimistic about that kid. Ah, right. Girl, I¡¯ll give you a piece of advice as an experienced person. If you like someone, go after them as soon as possible. Otherwise, if they get taken by someone else one day, there¡¯s nowhere for you to cry even if you regret it.¡±


    ¡°Dad, was there someone you missed out on before? Is that why you¡¯re so emotional?¡± Yin Xun asked curiously as she looked at Wu Li, who was talking to Yin Rui.


    Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at Yin Xun. ¡°Your father¡¯s first love was your mother. Back then, your mother was almost snatched away by someone else. Luckily, 1 intervened in the end.¡±


    Yin Xun nodded thoughtfully.


    After dinner, her family members left, leaving Yin Xun sitting there in a daze. She thought of Yin Cheng¡¯s words; they seemed to ring with truth.


    While she was lost in thought, the doorbell suddenly rang. Yin Xun got up to open the door. It was Fang Yao.


    ¡°I saw that your parents left, so 1 thought I¡¯d come over and see if there was anything I could help with,¡± Fang Yao said with a smile.


    However, Yin Xun only stared at him and did not speak. The two of them quietly looked at each other. Fang Yao was slightly stunned. He asked, ¡°Why are you looking at me like that?¡±


    ¡°Fang Yao, do you know what my dad said to me before he left?¡± Yin Xun asked. Looking at Fang Yao¡¯s puzzled gaze, she continued, ¡°He said that if you like someone, you should fight to be with them. Otherwise, it will be too late if you lose your chance.¡±


    ¡°So, you¡­¡± Fang Yao¡¯s heartbeat suddenly quickened.


    ¡°Fang Yao, how do you feel about being my boyfriend?¡± Yin Xun looked at Fang Yao and smiled.


    Fang Yao,¡±!?¡±


    His eyes widened in shock. Did he hear that wrongly? Was Yin Xun confessing?


    Wait, he had to calm down! He pinched herself in disbelief. It hurt quite a lot¡ªit seemed it was not a dream.


    He never expected that Yin Xun would suddenly confess to him. He took a deep breath and asked deeply, ¡°Yin Xun, are you being serious?¡±


    ¡°I am. Of course, if you don¡¯t want to¡­¡±


    ¡°I want to!¡± Fang Yao was afraid that Yin Xun would say something he would regret to hear, so he quickly said, ¡°I like you!¡±


    After that, Fang Yao immediately reached out and pulled Yin Xun into his arms. ¡°I wanted to wait until you were done with your own things before confessing. I didn¡¯t expect you to beat me to the punch¡­¡±


    Yin Xun was stunned.. Did that mean Fang Yao had feelings for her since a long time ago?
