Xie Liu was startled. He was the sixth bodyguard by Young Master Xie’s side, but this case was his mistake, and he was willing to be punished for it.
Xie Limo looked sternly at Xie Liu and said, “Xie Liu, being punished wouldn’t solve the problem. The key lies in whether you are willing to train for it. Do you know why I always keep you by my side? That’s because I have high expectations of you and I have great tasks for you to accomplish in the future. Do you understand?”
Xie Liu felt guilty and inspired at the same time as he shouted, “I understand!”
After that, Xie Limo sat and waited outside. After an entire afternoon, Xie Liu finally came out with a pale face. He was drenched in sweat and seemed a little weak as he reported to Xie Limo respectfully. “Young Master Xie, she confessed. It was a plan concocted by the alliance of several noble families in Ning An City. Using the connections they had and through bribery, they hired an international mercenary group. This is the diagram of the connection between those families.”
Xie Liu was deeply shocked when he heard it from the Demon. Ning An City was the gathering point for many noble families since it was the most prosperous city of Country A. However, within a single year, many of these noble families had been destroyed, and the remaining ones either remained neutral or supported Young Master Xie. Once they removed these noble families in the diagram, their mission in Ning An City would be accomplished.
Xie Limo looked at the diagram and said indifferently, “There’s no need to take them out individually. Arrange for a few noble families and support them so they can replace these families.”
Xie Liu was stunned. Could century-old noble families be replaced with just an order? However, with how simply Young Master Xie put it, it could be possible.

The Su family and Meng Xinyan caught wind that Yun Bixue was going to have a wedding ceremony, and this made the latter envious and furious as she nagged at Su Lenghan ceaselessly. “Tell me, are you planning to attend the wedding? You still haven’t forgotten her, have you? Now that I’m fat, you think that she looks better? Ahh! Tell me! If you don’t, I won’t let you eat your meal. Don’t ever think of running away. I’ll find you at Su Family Organization…”
Su Lenghan was tired. He didn’t really want to talk with Meng Xinyan as he was truly stressed out. Even a short rest felt like a luxury for him. “Meng Xinyan, you’re not like this before. What happened to you? Can you stop acting like this? No one can stand you right now.”
“Su Lenghan, you think that I look awful now, so you fell for women outside, didn’t you?”
“Stop your nonsense. You’ve been with me for a long time now. Don’t you already know my character?”
“You have the nerve to talk about character when you still have that Li Wenhui! I don’t believe you!”
Su Lenghan couldn’t imagine how she found the strength to speak with such force despite being heavily pregnant. “I’m just here to get some stuff. I still have things to settle at the company. If you’re bored and unhappy, go outside and have the maid accompany you, or you can call a few of your friends.”
Meng Xinyan’s face turned red with fury. What friends? She’s now being shunned by everyone. Ever since she was disowned by the Meng family, these friends of hers had avoided her. If she were to call them, they would only mock her in a roundabout manner.
“Su Lenghan, how dare you mock me! You’re not allowed to leave! What about that thousand-year-old ginseng that I asked you to take back? You didn’t do it, did you?”
Su Lenghan was about to drive away when Meng Xinyan rushed forward in an attempt to stop him.
However, at that moment, Meng Xinyan noticed a familiar face from a distance. It was Li Wenhui. Didn’t she already send someone to harass her? She never expected to see her again. Why was she still here?
“Ah!” All of a sudden, Meng Xinyan let out a loud gasp. She grabbed her stomach as it began cramping and twisting.
