CHAPTER 431: CHAPTER 429: FACING IT TOGETHER

After calming Huang Ying down, Jian Xi began to handle the company’s affairs.

Jian Chuxin saw the news and called immediately. His voice lost its usual flippancy and carried a bit of seriousness and apprehension. "I asked Zhang Xuan to suppress the media’s rumblings, and also had people communicate with those so-called professionals to see if they could change their stance. After all, these people have a significant influence, and it would be best if we could reconcile."

Jian Xi responded in a muffled voice, "Second Brother... having you is really great."

Eldest brother Jian Mingcheng called, "I used my connections to find out the instigator behind it—it was Song Xicheng, who is close to Si Yuhuan! At first, I thought he planned to attack you in revenge for Si Yuhuan, but I later realized he wanted to use Yaowang Group as a springboard to enter the China market. This time, he views you as his prized catch and is unlikely to let go. I’ve already mobilized people around me to terminate their contracts with him. The compensation will be covered by Jian Group—not for anything else, but because Jian Family’s sister will never be bullied by anyone!"

Jian Xi said, "Eldest Brother, so mighty and awesome!"

Jian Mingcheng’s voice revealed undeniable anger, "Does he really think anyone can bully my sister in China! If Si Yuhuan takes action now, there might be a chance of success, but for an outsider like him, he really doesn’t understand that a strong dragon can’t overpower a local snake!"

Heh—

Jian Xi couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"Eldest Brother, we’re not local snakes; we’re the true dragon!"

"Alright, seeing that your mood isn’t too bad, I can rest assured—I’ll come over after work to see you!"

Jian Xi felt embraced by warmth, feeling joyful inside and not so depressed or annoyed anymore.

When soldiers come, we fend them off; when water comes, we cover it with earth!

The most domineering of them all is Fifth Brother Jian Yanjun.

"That bastard! Daring to lay a hand on you—Fifth Brother will tie him up and bring him to you right now."

He preferred action over words.

Jian Xi hurried to stop him, "Fifth Brother, you’re not allowed to make a move within China’s borders; don’t do anything illegal! Come back quickly!"

As Song Xicheng was about to leave the club, Jian Yanjun gritted his teeth, feeling reluctant.

"Fifth Brother! I’m going to get angry!" Jian Xi threatened.

Jian Yanjun relented, "Alright, got it, I’m coming right back."

He instructed his subordinates angrily, "Watch him—if he dares to go overboard, even at the cost of my life, I’ll make him understand why flowers bloom so red!"

Such a punk!

Being mixed up in the underworld—big deal!

He’d be wiped out without leaving a trace!

In terms of assassination operations, perhaps not as slick as Secret Gate, but face-to-face one-on-one, there’s no fear!

Jian Xi was truly blessed!

Her brothers acted without needing her to ask, quietly helping her solve the troubles in their own ways!

This feeling of being everyone’s favorite was incredibly satisfying!

At this moment, Jian Xi felt that even if she couldn’t successfully counter Song Xicheng, she had at least tried her utmost, and whether she succeeded or failed, it was worth it!

....

Returning home at night, Wan Yu told Jian Xi a shocking piece of news.

"Do you know why Si Yuhuan went abroad?"

She wasn’t interested in this at all.

Now she just wanted to wash up, see her child, and study countermeasures.

Song Xicheng had significant influence. Yaowang Group received many contract terminations in succession, with compensation amounts that would give her a headache for a while.

Without Jian Xi needing to respond, Wan Yu was already excited to the point of laughing, "Xinxin, that fool, she actually sent Secret Gate people after all the CEOs who terminated with Haohan Group! It’s said she almost terminated a very influential CEO—if not for Si Yuhuan’s timely arrival, his life wouldn’t be safe!"

"There’s such a terrifying woman around Si Yuhuan; it’s scared more people into terminating with him!"

"He’s gone abroad to clean up the mess!"

Jian Xi smirked.

Just one Yaowang was enough to make her frantic, while a commercial empire as terrifying as Haohan Group was in turmoil. He probably wouldn’t have to sleep for several days and nights...

Idiot!

Why did she think of him again?

This scumbag didn’t deserve her thoughts.

"Yeah! Serves him right!"

Wan Yu agreed, "That’s right! Serves him right! Blind to choose Xinxin—I’m puzzled, with so many women, he picks one who only fights and flirts, being a bus for ten thousand men! Must have some eye disease! I really want to make an appointment for him to see a doctor!"

"I seriously suspect whether Si Yuhuan has some leverage held by Xinxin! Or maybe he wants to get something from Xinxin? Can’t understand it!"

Jian Xi, on the other hand, had come to terms, "He deserves it! Xinxin is his downfall!"

First Jiang Qimeng, then Xinxin—his life must be chaotic!

Jian Xi gritted her teeth, "Sleep!"

....

W Country.

Si Yuhuan looked at the numerous files in front of him, couldn’t help but pinch his forehead.

Yan Qing immediately handed over a cup of coffee, "Tired? Want to rest for a bit?"

Lately, Jian Group and Tianyao Group’s joint attacks had left Si Yuhuan exhausted. He barely salvaged the nearly bankrupt group, only for Xinxin to make a fuss, while anyone else would have collapsed, only Si Yuhuan could persist.

With his grandfather still lying in bed not yet recovered, Si Yuhuan was even more heart-worn.

Yan Qing saw this and was anxious but couldn’t help it.

"Who do you want to see next?"

With one project after another encountering issues, Si Yuhuan humbled himself to meet clients, trying to salvage the situation.

The moment he arrived in W Country, the schedule was packed, without rest.

Running nonstop for two consecutive days, even having no time for sleep.

The door swung open, "It’s time to see me next!"

Xinxin coquettishly walked over, wearing a white gauzy dress, her chest seductive and alluring features making her look like a vixen.

Si Yuhuan lifted his gaze, giving her a cold look, subtly frowning, "Why have you come?"

He lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and reclined domineeringly, dodging Xinxin’s closeness.

Failing at her attempt, Xinxin stomped angrily, "Director Si, what’s wrong? Are you in a bad mood? Is the negotiation not going well?"

Si Yuhuan walked over to the window, without answering her.

Xinxin bit her lip, "Director Si, I was wrong."

She attempted to eliminate all those who stood against Si Yuhuan and was about to succeed until Si Yuhuan came and stopped everything.

Those people saw her like seeing a ghost!

It made Xinxin want to eliminate them all even more.

Did she look scary?

Why not respected!

Thinking about the glory Jian Xi possessed that she couldn’t attain—it made her unwilling.

"I promise, I won’t be so impulsive again in the future."

Next time, given another chance, she would plan everything meticulously, leaving no trace.

This time she was too eager.

"Go back."

Si Yuhuan had nothing good to say to her.

Xinxin rushed forward, tightly hugging Si Yuhuan’s waist, "You can hit or scold me, punish me however you want, but don’t get yourself angry—let me stay and face it together, okay?"
