CHAPTER 432: CHAPTER 430: FLAUNTING HER VICTORY

"Yuhan, I’ve already realized my mistake and won’t act so recklessly again! Fortunately, your people stopped me before anything major happened, right?"

"There’s a saying in China, ’To forgive when possible is noble,’ can you let it slide?"

Saying this, Xinxin approached again.

"Director Si..." she pouted playfully.

Si Yuhuan slightly pushed her away by her wrist, narrowing his dark eyes, "I’m not blaming you. If I really were, would you still be standing here talking to me unhurt?"

He seemed to smile, yet the cold sharpness in his eyes made Xinxin dare not act recklessly. She stepped back a few steps, nervously clutching her clothes. The chilling death stare made her skin crawl, it was terrifying.

Even her godfather didn’t possess the soul-piercing intimidation he had.

Xinxin forced a stiff smile, saying nothing more.

Si Yuhuan patted her hand, "Don’t overthink it. The alliance between Tianyao Group and Jian Group is very tricky. You’re not versed in finance, so you can’t help here; seeing to you diverts my attention!"

Hearing this, Xinxin was overjoyed.

Si Yuhuan does indeed care for her; she should cherish such a gentle man.

"I know, you’ve worked hard. When you come back tonight, I’ll reward you well!" Xinxin touched Si Yuhuan’s arm and obediently stepped back a few steps.

Si Yuhuan chuckled softly, "I’ll have Yan Qing take you back to rest first."

"Sure!"

Si Yuhuan glanced at Xinxin’s hesitant back, his expression inscrutable and dark.

When Yan Qing returned, Si Yuhuan had already entered the hotel’s private conference room.

Inside sat numerous distributors and partners who previously had good collaborations with Haohan Group.

No one knew what they discussed, but everyone left with grim expressions.

....

Xinxin lay in the hotel, soaking in the bath, her mind replayed Si Yuhuan’s words about how the alliance between Tianyao Group and Jian Group left him overwhelmed.

She picked up her phone and called Fu Shengyuan.

"Hey, you’ve gone too far, overstepping boundaries. We agreed clearly before; I help you get Jian Xi, and you help me get Si Yuhuan. Now you’ve already got her, are you targeting Haohan Group for revenge?"

The man on the other end sneered, "You think you deserve to talk about promises with me?"

"Fu Shengyuan!" Enraged, Xinxin stood up straight from the bathtub, shouting into the phone, "You’re breaking your word, don’t you have any shame? Without me, could you have won Jian Xi’s heart? Now you’re burning bridges, aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Jian Xi you seem a perfect gentleman, but really a deceitful villain?"

Click!

The call was abruptly ended.

Frustrated and angry, Xinxin growled, "You bastard! I won’t let you get away with this!"

She called Jiang Yun, the line was continuously busy.

"What’s going on?"

Trying to contact the organization through special means, but received no response.

Feeling something amiss, Xinxin quickly emerged from the bathroom, wrapped in a towel while preparing to change clothes and leave when a shadow passed by and she was forcefully pinned onto the bed.

The towel on her was yanked open.

Xinxin screamed, "Help—"

Simultaneously, the lights went out.

As a member of the organization, she never forgot her professional skills, promptly adjusted her state, and during the moment of darkness, remained calm, fiercely kicked the man in his lower body, rolled toward the nightstand, grabbed a sharp knife, and stabbed it toward him.

"If you dare to take advantage of me, die first!"

The expected sound of a knife piercing flesh didn’t echo; her opponent’s agility rivaled hers, forcefully restraining one of her hands, quickly wrapping her in the quilt, pinning her down.

In a blink of an eye, the lights flickered back on, and Xinxin saw the intruder, her eyes nearly popping out.

"Baldhead?"

Baldhead had become one-eyed; Si Yuhuan had ruined one of his eyes.

He appeared grotesque, chillingly intimidative, his entire being radiating a strange aura of hostility, alerting Xinxin he was here for her!

"Don’t attack just yet, let me explain."

Unlike other women in such situations, she didn’t rush to pick up clothes and cover herself. Instead, she cast a seductive smile, pulled the quilt open, flaunted her stunning figure, and winked at Baldhead.

Baldhead felt his lower body heat up; she excelled at enticing, a simple glance or move showcased her most captivating aspects completely. No man could resist her seduction.

Baldhead swallowed thickly, short blade in hand, "Don’t think this seductive trick will work! If you hadn’t betrayed the organization, leaving me to Si Yuhuan’s mercy, I wouldn’t be in this pathetic state!"

"Xinxin, I’m here today to take your life!"

He charged forward, Xinxin’s toes pressed against his Adam’s apple, "What are you doing? Really intending to harm your old lover? Never forget our intimate history, countless days and nights! I’ve said before, being with Si Yuhuan was never my intention, why can’t you just trust me?"

She bewitchingly displayed her flawless features, enticingly biting her red lips, "Besides, certain parts only think of you! No other man makes them want to be touched; you don’t know how miserable I was without you. But I silently vowed in my heart, if anything happened to you, I’d avenge you by taking down Haohan Group!"

Baldhead raised a brow.

Recognizing his intrigue, Xinxin entangled her long legs around him, pressed firmly against his chest, "Listen to my heartbeat, doesn’t it tell you to trust me?"

The next moment.

As Baldhead reached for her back, from nowhere Xinxin produced a small knife and swiftly sliced across his throat.

Fast as lightning.

Blood spurted out.

A splatter, staining the entire hotel room red.

Xinxin nonchalantly pushed aside the lifeless body in her embrace.

Her expression indifferent, as if brushing off an insignificant item, her previously enchanting gaze now icily cold.

She licked the blood from her lip corner, coldly smirking down at the man on the floor clutching his neck, gasping more than breathing, eyes wide in disbelief, "I warned you, a hero’s tomb in a beauty’s embrace, and you’re no more than a fool! Daring to touch me!"

Xinxin rolled her eyes and dressed as blood bubbled from Baldhead’s throat.

"Brainless fool, single-minded simpleton, how can you compare to Si Yuhuan! Still thinking you could have me, ridiculous!"

Xinxin kicked aside his body, starting to search his belongings.

His eyes nearly gouged out, seemed he’d endured severe torture before escaping; she didn’t at all suspect him being intentionally let go by Si Yuhuan.

"Damn it, nothing!"

She took a photo and sent it to Si Yuhuan.

To boast her achievement.
