The more Shi Nian spoke, the angrier he became. John’s hair stood on end as he stared at Shi Nian in shock at what he’d heard, whereas Xi Cheng was dumbfounded.
Shi Nian went on, “Auntie Han Yuan regained consciousness long ago; she was even able to speak. In order to escape, she used the time when Lin Yu wasn’t around to exercise hard every day. You must’ve been to the hospital during that period of time, so why did she never ask for your help?”
“It’s because she knows you won’t be of any help! You believe in Lin Yu, believe in Gu Man, and you believe in all the people you shouldn’t! Yet you didn’t believe the counsel Liang Han and I gave you!”
“We can forgive you for speaking without thought, but aren’t you afraid Ye Kun and Liang Han will be sad? Do you think you deserve to have Ye Tang and Liang Han’s big brothers go through the trouble of bailing you and the Xi Corporation out?” Shi Nian clenched his fists tightly as he finished his tirade, wanting nothing more than to punch Xi Cheng’s face into a pulp. ‘What a moron!’ he inwardly fumed.
“How can this be? How could this possibly happen? I can’t believe it! Lin Yu, she—she…” Xi Cheng was at first shocked, and then furious. He shouted at John, asking about Lin Yu’s whereabouts. “Where is she?”
John dazedly shook his head. “I don’t know!” Xi Cheng turned towards Shi Nian.
“I don’t know, either. This is your family’s private matter,” Shi Nian said coldly. He turned around to walk out but thinking about it, he couldn’t bear to see his best friend fall to such a state, so he stopped to say to Xi Cheng, “I would straighten out matters at home and outside and sort out the people around you if I were you. You’re lucky to have people like John and Dawn helping you.”
In the end, Shi Nian didn’t promise anything. It would be useless even if the three of them supported him if Xi Cheng didn’t stand on his own feet—they couldn’t help him forever!
“Well done,” Lan Long languidly said to an exhilarated Chen Tao while holding a glass of wine.
Chen Tao quickly composed himself and respectfully replied, “Everything went so smoothly thanks to your arrangement, Young Master. I can imagine the pandemonium the Xi Corporation is in right now.”
The butler standing on the side, Mr Lou, informed them, “I heard Shi Nian went to the Xi Corporation’s headquarters early in the morning.”
Lan Long’s face darkened. “That man is everywhere! This Shi Nian is truly a bothersome extra.”
