Two people turned and left without looking back. As they passed a private room, Jiang Xunzhi peeked inside through the door crack and saw a group of "crazy" people indulging in revelry, all naked, with expressions of deep obsession. There were scattered syringes on the table.
As they reached the elevator, Jiang Xunzhi glanced at his expression, feeling conflicted and nervous.
"What's wrong? Don't be afraid, we'll be out soon," Jiang Xunzhi comforted him.
"Why did you just kiss me?" Lu Yanci said weakly.
I thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be this.
"Just now, I was forced by the situation, had no choice, and resorted to this last resort without your consent. I apologize." She said it not in an apologetic tone, but more like stating a fact.
"Also," Jiang Xunzhi raised his head and happened to meet his gaze. He smiled, a gentle smile. Suddenly, he subconsciously turned his head away. She saw his ears turn red in the elevator mirror, making some strange gestures, as if thinking of something unconventional in his mind.
Encountering such a thing, this kid still had the mood to smile, still beaming.
The underground of the coffee shop is a gambling den, a black boxing venue. On the left is the building, and these three places are interconnected underground. Jiang Xunzhi left the entrance of the building and walked back to where they parked.
Get in the car, drive, and then stop across from the Carousel Coffee Shop.
"Why aren't you going home? Why stop here?" Lu Yanci complained.
"Just feeling annoyed," Jiang Xunzhi lit a cigarette, looked at the bright words "Carousel" across the street, and asked, "Do you know that guy with red hair?"
"He is not a good person at all. I advise you to stay away from him," he said with a serious expression and a firm tone. "He is a madman, ruthless and cruel, killing without mercy, devoid of any humanity."
"What terrible crime did this person commit to make you judge him so harshly?" Jiang Xunzhi placed his hand holding the cigarette outside the window.
"He killed his entire family in one night, even the newborn baby was not spared."
Jiang Xunzhi felt a jolt in his heart: "You seem to know him very well."
"I've only met him a few times, can't say I know him well. But I was deeply impressed by him because of the wild and arrogant laughter he had after killing someone in front of me. Because of that, I had nightmares for several days in a row, I would vomit at the sight of blood. That guy is crazier than a madman."
At that moment, a burly man walked over from the opposite side, Jiang Xunzhi flicked away the cigarette butt and closed the car window.
The person approached and knocked on the window, "Miss, this is something President gave to you."
She opened the window, took the paper bag, and unpacked it. She took out two ID cards and a picture. In the picture, two people were not wearing clothes, with the woman on top of the man, looking infatuated, and the faces were Nan Shiye and Jiang Xunzhi.
"Here, your ID cards."
Lu Yanci quickly snatched the paper, took a quick look, became furious, tore the drawing, and threw it out of the car.
"This lunatic seems to have targeted you."
The drawing was clearly provocative, indirectly confirming that she was being targeted by Nan Shiye. But for the current Jiang Xunzhi, it was an opportunity. If Shen Siyi had a trade relationship with Nan Shiye, she could obtain some information from him about Shen Siyi, whether or not Shen Siyi had killed her.
If it's true as Su Yun said that Shen Siyi likes Shen Tingsi, then we can use this to put some pressure on her.
When the two arrived home, it was already 1 am. As soon as they turned on the entrance light, Shen Tingsi was sitting on the sofa and said coldly, "You're back."
Jiang Xunzhi felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, and Shen Tingsi's face came to mind. At first glance, it really was him. This old man suddenly came back. He had only seen Shen Tingsi come back once since moving here a few days ago. His sudden appearance this time must have been informed by Nan Shiye.
Lu Yanci saw his brother and was shocked, "Brother, you're back so soon and didn't even tell me."
"You go in first," Shen Tingsi said coldly, giving a signal with his eyes to Jiang Xunzhi to go back to his own bedroom and stay there until ordered otherwise.
It looks like things are going to be bad this time. Jiang Xunzhi faced that lunatic Nan Shiye without fear, but as soon as he saw Shen Tingsi's cold face, he instantly felt a chill down his spine. She obediently walked into the bedroom, closed the door, and pressed her ear against it to eavesdrop on the situation outside.
With a loud "pa" sound, it landed on Lu Yanci's face. The crisp and loud sound reached Jiang Xunzhi's ears, and he shuddered at the thought of how much force was used. "Do you know why I hit you?" Shen Tingsi faced him, towering two centimeters above him. "I shouldn't have gone to the illegal place," Lu Yanci lowered his head.
"No, that's not right." After a pause, Shen Tingsi said, "You didn't handle it cleanly and now someone has a hold on you. Have you forgotten everything I taught you before?"
"No, I haven't. Don't touch what you shouldn't, fight for what you want, leave no trace in anything you do, and don't let anyone have a hold on you."
"But tonight, someone did catch you red-handed. Did you think wearing a mask and sunglasses would keep you from being recognized? And leaving your ID there was just absurd."
Jiang Xunzhi hides behind the door, feeling some self-blame.
If I had known, I wouldn't have taken Lu Yanci with me. His scolding today is my fault.
Lu Yanci keeps his head down and says, "I'm sorry, there won't be a next time."
"One month of reflection at home, not allowed to go out."
She felt that there was no movement outside, and didn't dare to go out, so she stayed in the bedroom, washed up, and went to bed after that.
This week, Jiang Xunzhi has been quietly staying at home, not stepping out at all, until she received a message from Jiang Nan in the morning, asking to meet at noon, and the address was sent over.
She had to go to this appointment to meet Shen Tingsi, her stepmother. Jiang Xunzhi found the specific location of the teahouse and met the legendary Madame Shen. She had a smile on her face, looked approachable, dignified, elegant, and it's no wonder his dad fell for her. When Jiang Nan saw Jiang Xunzhi, he smiled politely and said, "Qingran, I haven't seen you in a long time. You look thinner."
He really isn't an easy person to deal with. We've only met a few times, yet he calls me so intimately. I have to admit, his gentle and friendly demeanor really makes it easy for people to develop a good impression. Jiang Xunzhi caters to her: "I've been really busy lately." "I heard that you saved Yan Ci's child in the mountains. I'm really grateful for that," Jiang Nan is making tea. "It's nothing, Mr. Lu has already thanked me," she is good at fake smiling.
"I know you are a helpful and kind-hearted child, and you are also very attached to your family. How is your grandmother's health recently? The medical expenses must be quite a burden." Jiang Nan poured her a cup of tea and placed it in front of her.
Bringing up her grandmother again, it seems that she really has a hold on Wan Qingran, knowing that she values family and is short of money for medical treatment.
"My grandmother is doing fine," she replied calmly.
"If you need help, remember to let me know, Auntie will help you."
"You are so attentive, are you trying to get me to help you with something?"
"Qing Ran, you are indeed a smart and sensible child, but this only makes me feel more distressed. I do have something I want to ask of you, it's just a very small thing." Jiang Nan said, " the Shen will soon establish a branch in Country A, and I want to know the list of designated personnel in the branch. The specific list should be in Shen Tingsi's computer. I hope you can help me find it, because there is a spy from another company on that list. I am doing this for the future development of the Shen."
Jiang Xunzhi appears hesitant, but in his heart, he is thinking, "Another person might have agreed to this reasoning, but unfortunately, you have met me."
"I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter. Mr. Shen simply doesn't like me."
"Last month, you were appointed as Vice Director at the company by Shen Tingsi. This shows that your relationship with him is already heading in a positive direction."
"I'm not in the company now, so I really can't help you."
"You saved Lu Yanci's life. You can use this opportunity to continue to communicate with him and have him find the list of personnel. It's not difficult."
This woman has even thought of the method, she's just waiting for me to choose.
"However, Mr. Lu has already repaid the favor of saving my life. It might be inappropriate to ask him again."
"Don't you want to save your grandmother? She urgently needs money for her hospitalization."
"My grandmother is out of danger now and doesn't need a lot of money, so you should ask someone else."
Jiang Nan simply put her phone in front of her. Jiang Xunzhi took a look and saw a sleeping photo of her lying on the bed. She wanted to use this to threaten her.
"You want to threaten me with this."
"I have no choice. It's because you don't listen. I can only use this method. If you get the list, I will delete the photo."
"Even if I get it, how do I know you haven't made a backup?"
"I am a trustworthy person, and you are at a disadvantage. You can only do as I ask."
"Fine, I promise you."
Jiang Nan resumed his previous smile and said, "This is the look of a good child. You don't live in the original place anymore."
"I moved to a different neighborhood. It wasn't safe to stay in the original place."
"Alright, I look forward to hearing from you."
Jiang Nan carried her bag and walked out, while Jiang Xunzhi took another sip and said, "Good tea."
This woman, beautiful and cunning. It seems that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to deceive people. This statement is indeed true.
Leaving the teahouse, Jiang Xunzhi walked on the road and always felt someone behind her. Her first instinct was right on time. Subconsciously, she thought that the woman Jiang Nan had sent someone. Since she had leverage in her hands, there was no need to go to such lengths. Shen Tingsi was also a possibility. He might not trust me at all. In order to catch the person following her, she pretended to go to crowded places and played a game of hide and seek with them.
You chase me and arrive at the corner of a small alley, where two men are searching around.
"I clearly saw him come in, why haven't I seen him."
"I'll go check in the back."
Suddenly, Jiang Xunzhi appeared behind them, "Looking for me?"
The two turned around in unison, but before they could react, she directly started punching and kicking them. One person was knocked unconscious, while the other remained conscious.
Despite being two big guys, they were still weak. She asked, "Who sent you?"
Seeing that he didn't speak, he pulled out a handgun from his waist, "The craftsmanship is not bad. I wonder how powerful it is. How about I let you try it."
The man thought he was just talking and bluffing, and wouldn't actually shoot at all.
Jiang Xunzhi quickly disassembled the handgun, then swiftly reassembled it in front of him, loaded the bullets, held the trigger, aimed at his leg, and said, "Think I don't dare to shoot? I'll ask again, who sent you."
The man was already scared, "It's our President."
"The Four Corners will, Nan Shiye."
The man nodded repeatedly, and Jiang Xunzhi teased him about his flustered expression, saying, "With you like this, you still dare to mix in the underworld. Give your President a message, I will visit at home another day."
After speaking, he threw the gun and left the alley. When he opened the door at home, he saw Shen Tingsi sitting on the sofa. "Where did you go?" he asked, rubbing his forehead, his voice a bit hoarse.
"Jiang Nan, asked me to steal the personnel list of your branch, should I give it or not?" Jiang Xunzhi took off his coat and washed his hands.
"Nan Shiye has been sending people to look for you recently, it's better for you not to go out."
"Alright." Jiang Xunzhi returned to the bedroom and never came out again until she heard the sound of the front door closing, then she came out to move around.
At this time, a message was received on the phone, it was a personnel list sent by Shen Tingsi. She didn't know if the list was real or not, but his intention was to hand over this list to Jiang Nan. A month quickly passed, and Lu Yanci's solitary confinement also ended. At the first opportunity, he went to his brother's house to see Jiang Xunzhi. He now firmly believes that this Wan Qingran is the same person as the former Jiang Xunzhi, but he did not tell Shen Tingsi about this idea.
Arriving at the front door, ringing the doorbell, but no one answered. This is the residence under Shen Tingsi's name, and he doesn't have a key to the door. He immediately called her, and she picked up the phone.
"Aren't you at home?" Lu Yanci asked.
"I don't live there anymore. I moved to Yun Cheng Villa Area," Jiang Xunzhi said, wearing a face mask and eating grapes.
After getting the address, Lu Yanci immediately drove to Cloud City.
