Beautiful CEO's Top Expert

"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?" Ye Xunhuan said to He Sichan with a serious face.

The next moment, He Sichan seemed to have thought of something and said to Ye Xunhuan, "Su Guyan, Miss Su, seems to run an entertainment company, you're not thinking of going to her company, are you?"

Ye Xunhuan shook his head with a smile.

Although Su Guyan also runs an entertainment company and has artists and quite a few resources at her disposal, pushing those artists onto the world stage is not such an easy task.

"Then you are..."

"I won't tell you now, but I promise to give you a surprise." Ye Xunhuan said mysteriously.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan say this, He Sichan didn't ask any more questions. She was still looking forward to seeing what surprise Ye Xunhuan would bring her.

After chatting with He Sichan for a while, Ye Xunhuan slowly turned the conversation in another direction, "Has anyone been looking for you in the past few days?"

Ye Xunhuan's question made He Sichan hesitate, then shook her head and said, "No, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Ye Xunhuan said lightly.

Afraid that He Sichan might overthink, Ye Xunhuan quickly added, "Some issues arose a few days ago with Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu told me he might encounter some trouble soon, so I'm just checking if anyone approached you for their purposes."

When Ye Xunhuan said this, He Sichan didn't think too much: "No one has approached me aside from some old friends; I haven't met anyone else recently."

"If any strangers contact you or try to get close, let me know, or tell Xiao Jiu!"

At this point, Ye Xunhuan completely pushed everything onto Xiao Jiu.

Ye Xunhuan felt having a brother around wasn't so bad, at least the lie wouldn't be exposed.

If Xiao Jiu knew what Ye Xunhuan was thinking, he might spit out a mouthful of old blood and ask Ye Xunhuan: Brother Huan, am I just a scapegoat to you?

You can't blame Ye Xunhuan for making Xiao Jiu take the fall. After all, telling He Sichan some things would only put endless pressure on her.

Moreover, right now in the city of Jiang Zhong, she's alone; her father, He Duoze, has disappeared without a trace, and someone else has set their eyes on her.

So, for now, it's best to proceed cautiously!

"Alright, if any strange people come, I'll let you or Xiao Jiu know," He Sichan said seriously.

...

Meanwhile, at Camphor Villa, Dongfang Shu once again focused her attention on Wu Lanqin.

Or rather, it would be more accurate to say Dongfang Shu came again to retaliate against Wu Lanqin.

As Dongfang Shu said, she would break one of Wu Lanqin's fingers each day. Today was the second finger, and after breaking Wu Lanqin's finger, Dongfang Shu would find someone to treat her, repeating the cycle of torture.

Moreover, Wu Lanqin had wounds on her face which had left scars due to lack of treatment, making her look like a ghost from countless horror movies.

"You little brat, if you have the guts, kill me, kill me..." Wu Lanqin screamed madly at Dongfang Shu, the malice in her eyes fully exposed for all to see.

Adding to Wu Lanqin's current state, she looked even more like a furious spirit!

"As I said, death will be a luxury for you. You'll live a life worse than death," Dongfang Shu said coldly. "Of course, you could bite your tongue to suicide, but you'd better pray that such a method truly works, otherwise you'll just be bringing more pain upon yourself!"

Although many movies depict biting one's tongue to end their life, actually dying that way is quite difficult.

Biting your tongue to commit suicide is just a trick.

Wu Lanqin knew this well, which made her more agitated when she heard these words.

"You little brat, you'd better pray no one comes to save me, otherwise I'll make your life worse than death..."

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone rescue you, and in a few days, I'll sever all your tendons," Dongfang Shu said nonchalantly.

A chill ran through Wu Lanqin's heart; having her tendons severed would render her completely helpless.

This made her disfigurement seem insignificant in comparison.

"You little brat, you..."

"Enough, today's work is done. Now I'm off to settle accounts with the Xie family you collaborated with!"

With that, Dongfang Shu stepped outside.

Wu Lanqin immediately began screaming and cursing frantically.

But Dongfang Shu paid her no attention whatsoever.

To Dongfang Shu, Wu Lanqin could only vent her frustrations verbally now.

After leaving the villa's basement, Dongfang Shu exhaled heavily, shadows of malevolence flashed in her eyes.

She hadn't forgotten everything the Xie family did to her when Dongfang Qingyu arrived.

Although the Xie family is deeply rooted in China's Central Sea Province, known as one of the four great families, Dongfang Shu wasn't afraid now.

She knew given the chance, the Xie family wouldn't calm down from her silence; instead, they might become even more frenzied!

This time Dongfang Shu had to confront the Xie family. Regardless of their wealth, she would make them understand that Dongfang Shu was not easy to bully.

She had to let the Xie family know that even in death, she'd gnaw a piece of flesh off them.

With Meng Qi dead, combined with the Dongfang family's arrival, Dongfang Shu exposed parts of her trained Hidden Guard, and she was taking them to the Xie family.

The Xie family are esteemed nobles in Central Sea Province; entering their premises isn't hard, but it's not easy either, especially for someone like Dongfang Shu arriving uninvited.

Thus, Dongfang Shu's entrance required notification.

However, even so, Dongfang Shu promptly entered the Xie premises, waiting in the Xie family's living room.

Not long after, Xie Mingjiang walked in from outside, laughing heartily, "Miss Dongfang, your presence really graces our humble abode!"

"If Mr. Xie considers this a humble abode, then the rest of the world must be in shabby huts."

Dongfang Shu's words were true; the Xie family resided in a traditional courtyard.

But though true, her words carried a tinge of hostility.

After all, Xie Mingjiang's 'humble abode' remark was just a courteous gesture.

"Miss Dongfang, you're quite the joker." Xie Mingjiang was a seasoned veteran, remaining undisturbed, "What brings you here, Miss Dongfang?"

"I need Mr. Xie to give me an explanation!"

Dongfang Shu chose directness without wasting time.
