Chapter 743 - A Huge Conspiracy (2/2)

He had a feeling that the other party had already started to stir up a storm.

Wen Xinya frowned slightly and said, “However, since Ning Shuqian was hospitalized, I’ve been sending people to track her movements but didn’t find any points of suspicion?”

If Si Yiyan’s guess was right, the other party’s cunningness was simply beyond expectations.

She hadn’t died for nothing in her previous lifetime.

Thus, Wen Xinya couldn’t help but feel fortunate to have known Si Yiyan in this lifetime. At first, it was also him who reminded her that there was someone behind Ning Shuqian. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even have known how she died.

Si Yiyan frowned slightly and said, “This is probably how the other party is brilliant and fearless!”

It was the first time that he felt that he wasn’t strong enough—they didn’t fear his warning and power, continued to stir up storms right in front of him, and there was nothing he could do.

Towards this matter, he could actually only protect her safety.

This was an outcome that he could never accept.

Wen Xinya raised her head and asked, “Should we keep a closer eye on Ning Shuqian?”

Si Yiyan shook his head and said, “Disperse all the people spying on Ning Shuqian! This is to prevent alarming her. Since the other party has appeared, this proves that Ning Shuqian still has value. We only need to wait and see—we should be able to get some leads through the grapevine.”

He had never lost in a game of patience!

His gaze turned hazy. Unless… the other party didn’t touch his bottom line.

Wen Xinya was very vexed. “All our efforts were for naught. We didn’t eliminate Ning Shuqian nor discover leads regarding the powers behind her, and still caused the Wen Family’s reputation to suffer for nothing…”

Si Yiyan said mildly, “That’s not true. At least, the other party has been forced to strike. Ning Shuqian schemed to make Wen Haowen unable to divorce her, thus maintaining her status. However, as she only has control over Wen Haowen in the Wen Family and this incident has driven a wedge between them, she may not be able to manipulate Wen Haowen as she did in the past. We’ll then get our chance to strike.”

After hearing Si Yiyan’s words, Wen Xinya indeed felt somewhat better. “Si Yiyan, you really know how to cheer people up!”

Si Yiyan hugged her and said in a low, hoarse voice, “Since I’ve cheered you up, should you return the favor?”

His hoarse voice and suggestive tone revealed the meaning of his words. Wen Xinya blushed intensely, stared at him, and said, “You’re my boyfriend. It’s expected for you to cheer your girlfriend up when I’m unhappy or in trouble. It’s so wicked of you to ask for a repayment!”

Si Yiyan squinted his eyes and asked, “Is this how wicked is used?”

Wen Xinya instantly mellowed down. “My mistake, my mistake…”

Si Yiyan said meaningfully, “Since you’ve committed a mistake, you’ve gotta be punished…”

Speaking in an altisonant manner, he leaned in, kissed Wen Xinya, and fulfilled his plans to punish her.
