Heaven and Earth, year after year.
Shi Xinxin wiped her face, and suddenly a sentence appeared before her eyes.
She pulled up the corners of her mouth and smiled.
To live is to endure.
To strive and to fight, perhaps this time it would be a good opportunity to temper herself.
Accept it with a calm heart.
"However... they have made a plan, and we also have plan ABC."
Yan Hao looked at his junior sister's smiling face, which had regained its confidence, and smiled with relief.
The three of them let out a sigh of relief, and the tension in their hearts eased considerably.
"Sheng Chenjin... the Sacred Mark will be coming to our doorstep soon."
She smiled at Sheng Chenjin, her eyes devoid of cunning, only an endless coolness.
It seemed as though the reservations in her heart had truly been let go.
She and Sheng Chenjin exchanged a glance, and Sheng Chenjin nodded with tacit understanding.
Yan Hao frowned, still very worried about Shi Xinxin.
He opened his mouth at last, but said nothing.
Never mind, no matter what Shi Xinxin did, he would help her with all his might.
Why bother worrying about an unknown outcome?
"Junior sister, I'll go deal with the matters of the Second Hospital."
Yan Hao also regained his gentle and polite demeanor, thinking of the Second Hospital dean's money-grubbing attitude, he had some thoughts.
"Mm, good luck." Shi Xinxin understood, thinking that after this, the war with Elder Feng would have already begun.
"Sister, then I..." Feng Yu pondered whether he should risk returning to Zhu Guo's side to continue gathering information for her.
"Go to the company, don't think about going back. We are about to fall out with Elder Feng, and Zhu Guo will surely suspect you."
"However, we still need to make a plan and periodically 'convey' our situation."
Feng Yu nodded, thinking it was a good idea.
"I'm not worried about this for you, you can handle it yourself." Shi Xinxin made brief arrangements for Feng Yu.
Sheng Chenjin, who was sitting upright waiting for Shi Xinxin to ask him something, tensed up as soon as he heard Shi Xinxin speak, appearing ready to serve at any moment.
He never expected that Shi Xinxin had no intention of assigning him any tasks.
He suppressed a inexplicable sense of loss in his heart.
After all, he was an unimportant person.
Shi Xinxin saw Sheng Chenjin lower his eyelashes, looking dejected, and was filled with questions.
What was wrong again? Shi Xinxin was still wondering if she had said something wrong, wishing she could pry open his head and see what he was thinking inside.
Forget it, she was tired, she wouldn't guess anymore.
"I can't show myself yet, there are many informants outside."
Sheng Chenjin seemed to think of something, looked up at Shi Xinxin innocently.
He even shrugged bashfully, acting as if he was powerless as well.
Shi Xinxin looked at him, as if the words "I can't help it, so I'll have to stay at your place for a few days" were written clearly on his face.
Shi Xinxin gritted her teeth and squeezed out a word from between her teeth.
"Fine."
She seemed to have thought of something, and under Sheng Chenjin's gaze, she took out her phone.
She dialed an unremarked phone number.
Then she sat down opposite Sheng Chenjin.
"Hello."
The voice on the other end was polite.
"Bai Feng, where are you now?"
Shi Xinxin's voice was recognizable, and Bai Feng immediately recognized it.
"Ah, Miss Shi, I'm at the company now."
He held his phone, a little nervous, wondering if something important had happened.
The now nervous Comrade Xiao Bai did not think about the fact that the CEO had not come to the company.
Shi Xinxin had the call on speakerphone. Although there was no problem with the conversation between her and Bai Feng, Sheng Chenjin's face darkened.
Shi Xinxin chuckled and opened her lips.
"There is something. Come to Shengjing Garden."
Bai Feng's heart tightened upon hearing this. Oh no, what was going on?
His brain worked at lightning speed.
"Uh, this... Miss Shi, if I may be so bold, can we discuss it at the company? Why... why at your place?"
He swallowed, wondering if Shi Xinxin knew some secret and wanted to silence him.
He was still a pure and innocent assistant...
Shi Xinxin listened to Bai Feng's vigilant words and looked at Sheng Chenjin's expression, as if he wanted to rush into the phone and strangle Bai Feng, and burst into laughter.
"Bai Feng, how can you be so cute? And what are you thinking?"
Sheng Chenjin was so angry that he almost flipped the table when he heard Shi Xinxin "praise" Bai Feng for being cute.
Sheng Chenjin: I want a new assistant!
Bai Feng, having unexpectedly received Shi Xinxin's 'compliment', stammered and couldn't say anything.
Shi Xinxin thought she had teased him enough and held the receiver towards Sheng Chenjin, signaling him to say a few words.
"Bring the documents that need to be processed and my computer."
"I'll settle the score with you when you get here."
Sheng Chenjin gritted his teeth subtly and glanced at Shi Xinxin, who looked at ease.
"CEO?" Bai Feng suddenly heard Sheng Chenjin's gloomy and terrifying voice. Thinking of the conversation he just had with Shi Xinxin, he instantly felt that his life was in danger.
He wished he could cut off his own brain. Oh my god, what had he just said? Had the CEO heard it all?
No, Miss Shi wouldn't be so bored as to turn on the speakerphone.
Bai Feng reassured himself and quickly replied "received" before hanging up.
Sheng Chenjin listened to the busy signal and rubbed his forehead.
An assistant like this, get rid of him.
...
Halfway through the sky, a private jet was soaring through the clouds, a plane flying from Country Y to China.
Inside the cabin, a luxurious, family-style configured room.
A woman sat on the sofa, her red dress swaying, and her golden wavy hair made her look even more sexy and charming.
She gently swirled the red wine glass in her hand, the ruby-red, slightly intoxicating liquid rippling, as captivating as its owner.
Her red lips curved upwards, and she raised her hand to cover the no longer conspicuous scar on her face, the malevolence in her eyes fully revealed.
On the low table in front of her, various knives were neatly arranged, along with special weapons collected from all over the world.
Her fair thigh, revealed by the slit of her skirt, also bore a few wide and long scars.
"Elder Feng is truly joking. How could I, a mere person in power, compare to you, the founder?"
Her charming laughter echoed in the room, her tone full of teasing.
The person opposite remained unmoved, still making demands.
"What? You want me to act and help deal with a little girl?"
"Elder Feng, you must have forgotten that I am thirty-six years old this year."
"How capable is that person to make you act so cautiously? If you ask me, you could just lift a finger, and wouldn't they die like ants... without a trace?"
Her voice was very light, clearly not believing that the favor Elder Feng asked of her was a difficult task.
Hmph, such a small trick to trouble her to act, she wasn't so easily bullied.
"I, Yun Rou, still have principles, otherwise I wouldn't have been elected as the head of the Sacred Mark, right?"
"What kind of girl is this that you are so concerned about? Alright, since you have already spoken, I, as a junior, cannot refuse you. I'll give it a shallow try, after all, I'm close to retirement and can't wield a sword anymore."
Yun Rou replied listlessly, her attitude towards Elder Feng very perfunctory.
However, she was only speaking words. The plane rapidly heading to China had already proven everything.
Elder Feng on the other end of the phone hung up and looked at the dark, gloomy clouds in the sky.
"This Cloud City is about to change."
