Ch. 41..45: Mr CEO Ex-wife Escapes Again Chapter 41-45
Chapter 41 She Has Become So Powerful That He Can’t Control Her “Where is she?”
“In a small fishing village halfway down the waterway, it’s said that after being washed ashore, she was picked up by the fishermen,”
the police said, as they sent over a photo.
So, when the man looked down, a face he knew all too well appeared on his computer screen.
It was indeed the nanny.
At that moment, she was lying in a fisherman’s house. Through the lens, that ugly and rugged face couldn’t have been more real.
Another one? How interesting!
He began to laugh.
Only, Yin Hehe was standing not far from him, and the more she looked at his smile, the more horrifying it seemed, as if it belonged to a ghoul that crawled out of Hell.
“Mr. Sheng, are you… are you okay?”
She finally asked, quivering with fear.
However, no sooner had the words left her mouth than the man suddenly looked up, his gaze sharp as a knife’s edge.
It made her involuntarily step back several paces.
“What do you think?”
“…”
Yin Hehe dared not reply at all.
How would she know?
But soon…
“I certainly have something on my mind, so from now on, you will eat and live in this hospital room with me, and you must not leave for twenty-four hours a day.”
In the chilling atmosphere, he was still smiling as he spoke.
But if you looked closely, you’d see that his facial lines hadn’t moved at all, and each one was cold and fierce.
An intense murderous intent.
It was enough to make one’s scalp tingle.
Yin Hehe swallowed hard, suddenly realizing that her plan must have been set into motion.
“Of course, Mr. Sheng.”
She agreed.
On the surface, she still maintained the appearance of a trembling little rabbit.
—
The most crucial part of Yin Hehe’s scheme was presumably how to “revive” the nanny?
So, the plan she came up with in the end was to have her best friend find the Thousand-Faced Spider and then create another “nanny.”
Then, they dumped her by the seashore.
What was the situation like now?
When Yin Hehe was trapped in the hospital room that evening, she had been pondering this question.
However, she remained calm and composed.
“Mr. Sheng, what would you like to eat? It’s time for dinner.”
Busy until evening, when it was time for the hospital meals, she put down what she was doing and asked the man in front of her.
The man glanced at her briefly.
He had been very calm that afternoon too, hardly speaking a few words, always busy in front of his laptop.
Yin Hehe waited obediently.
“Eat whatever the hospital has,” he said at last, his tone rather indifferent.
Yin Hehe turned to the phone to order the hospital meals delivered straight to the room.
But the man behind her, after giving her a couple of looks, suddenly spoke again.
“Get it yourself, and make sure it’s clean.”
“…Yes, Mr. Sheng.”
She obediently replied once more.
Upon hanging up the phone, she grabbed a tray from the room and headed out of the hospital room with it.
This was a rare chance to get out—if she wanted to escape or make a call, it was the perfect opportunity.
Yet, there was no intention in her of doing so.
Xu Guannan had been watching her from a distance. When he saw no sign of her trying to run away, but instead going straight into the hospital-owned restaurant,
he returned to the room, puzzled.
“President, why are you keeping such a close watch on this nurse? Does she have some problem?”
“…”
The man who finally put down his notebook didn’t make a sound.
He got out of the hospital bed, having maintained that position working all afternoon, he was now very tired and sore.
Of course, his mood was not good either!
“How’s the nanny situation?”
He took a sip of water and after a long while, he finally heard himself ask in a deep voice.
“The police have taken her away; she should be on her way back to Jiangbei by now. That nanny’s impressive, you know, for the sake of survival, she actually managed to kill that female doctor and then disguise the other as herself before jumping into the sea.”
As Xu Guannan mentioned the latter part, he couldn’t help but praise the nanny.
Of course, all this was told to him by the Jiangbei Police Department.
“Hehe…”
Who would have thought, just as he finished his words, he heard the cold laughter of the boss, which was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.
Xu Guannan swallowed a gulp of water.
“Once you arrive in Jiangbei, immediately arrange for someone to take her away from the police and lock her up,” he almost ground out the words through his teeth, one by one.
Listenting to this made Xu Guannan shrink his neck.
They were going to lock her up?
Why?
He didn’t understand, of course, but if he knew that the nanny was a fake, and the young nurse before him was the real nanny,
then perhaps he would understand.
His boss, at this very moment, was like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; his goal was to tear that detestable woman to pieces!
—
Yin Hehe returned with the meal in hand.
As she pushed open the door to the sickroom, she saw that after nightfall, the room was still unlit, so she reached for the light switch by the door.
“Don’t turn it on,” came a raspy male voice.
Yin Hehe immediately stopped.
She followed the voice and discovered a figure seated by the window of the sickroom.
At that moment, he leaned back his head against the chair, just his silhouette in the dark was enough to convey his exhaustion and frailty.
Yin Hehe hesitated for a moment before carrying the meal through the darkness towards him.
“Mr. Sheng, are you feeling unwell?”
She approached him and asked with concern.
She knew the symptoms post-bone marrow donation better than anyone else, the first few days truly felt as if one had journeyed through Hell.
“No.”
Unexpectedly, the man sitting in the darkness denied it coldly.
Yin Hehe pressed her lips together.
Not knowing what to say, she moved closer to him in the darkness to which she had already adjusted.
His condition was indeed not good.
This guy had insisted on focusing on her all afternoon, enduring the effort to work from the hospital bed for so long.
At this instant, his eyes closed, he reclined in the chair, his entire being as feeble as a leaf floating on water, not even having the strength to speak.
“Mr. Sheng, I think I should help you back to the bed to lie down for a while.”
She was a bit anxious, and after setting down the meal, she proceeded to help him.
However, the moment her fingers touched him, he flung her off as if she were a plague, vehemently telling her to keep her distance.
“Get lost, don’t touch me!” he said with a forceful voice.
Yin Hehe: “…”
Had it been during the day, she definitely would have “obediently” gotten out of the way.
Live or die — it’s his choice.
But now, standing in the darkness and clenching her fists for a while, she still unassertively returned to this jerk’s side.
“I won’t leave, Mr. Sheng. You saved me, and I won’t abandon you.”
She bent down, opening her arms to embrace the upper half of the man’s body.
In an instant, in the darkness of the night, the man’s body stiffened as if electrocuted, his shut eyes suddenly snapping open.
He stared at her.
His pupils constricted violently in the darkness.
Chapter 42: He doesn’t stoop to her level “What are you doing?”
“Mr. Sheng… Mr. Sheng, you are in great danger, I was just… trying to help you to the bed.”
Yin Hehe didn’t know where she found the courage to stammer out an explanation under the man’s deadly glare.
She really hadn’t thought it through that much.
As someone who had also donated bone marrow, she knew how critical this man’s condition was.
Yet, even after she had explained herself, the man still hadn’t moved, his eyes piercing through her in the darkness.
All soaked with loathing and hatred!
Yin Hehe: “…”
Suddenly, she too calmed down, and her hands let go decisively.
“I’m sorry, I will call the doctor for you right now.”
Then, she stood upright in the darkness, a self-mocking smile crossing her lips as she stepped toward the door of the ward.
Leaving the man still seated in that pose, his expression uglier than before for a long time.
…
Half an hour later, in the well-lit ward, the doctor finally started an IV for Sheng Siyuan.
“Mr. Sheng, you shouldn’t overexert yourself in your current condition; you need to make sure to rest.”
“Mhm.”
His agreement came out a bit stiff.
Yin Hehe stood waiting in the background. After the doctor was done, she went over to the small table to collect the now-cold meal.
“I’m somewhat hungry.”
“?”
As Yin Hehe was about to throw away the meal, she looked up.
But she discovered that it was the dog of a man lying in the hospital bed who had spoken, the very one who had just refused to eat at all costs.
Now, he was the one requesting to eat.
Yin Hehe raised an eyebrow, and after a moment, she looked down at the food already packed in her hands…
Ten minutes later.
“It’s warmed up, Mr. Sheng. Eat,” she said, placing the reheated food in front of the man again.
She certainly wouldn’t defy him.
He was still in control of her fate after all, so if she wanted to part ways smoothly, she would have to serve him obediently for the next few days.
The man showed a visible trace of pleasure at the sight.
But soon…
“How am I supposed to eat?”
He lifted his IV-bound right hand, his tone showing a bit of annoyance.
Yin Hehe also frowned slightly.
“…Then why don’t you drink a cup of milk first, Mr. Sheng, and eat the rest after the IV is done?”
She handed him the warmed milk first.
She wasn’t going to make a fool of herself again.
The air was quiet for a few seconds, and in that moment, the man’s demeanor seemed to hint at an emerging anger.
What did it mean? Was she unwilling to serve him?
Did she forget who she was? Didn’t she know her life was still in his hands?
His face was dark.
Yin Hehe: “Mr. Sheng?”
Completely unaware of the man’s thoughts and seeing him motionless, she held out the milk in her hand and reminded him again.
In the end, prodded by her, the man took the milk with a sullen face.
Really spoiled!
Yin Hehe went off to take care of other things.
The man behind her, after downing a bottle of milk, indeed felt a significant improvement in the light-headed sensation.
“Bring the meal here,” he called out to the woman again.
“??”
Yin Hehe was very surprised.
But since he had asked, she brought over the meal that he had refused just moments ago.
“Mix it up for me, and get a spoon.”
He was terribly impatient.
Yin Hehe: “…”
It seemed he was really starving.
Without further refusal, Yin Hehe quickly prepared the meal and handed it to him.
“It’s a bit hot; please be careful,” she said.
“Mhm.”
His attitude was unexpectedly good.
Yin Hehe didn’t leave immediately, in case he had other instructions.
But after waiting a while, she didn’t get orders from this damn man to do any work. Instead, after he had a few bites, he asked her a completely irrelevant question.
“Where is your hometown?”
“Ah?”
Yin Hehe’s face changed.
“I… I’m from the Northeast,” she blurted out a place in haste.
“Northeast?”
Not good, this man actually took her seriously.
He held the spoon and methodically took a bite of food before asking again, “Where in the Northeast? Tell me, so I can inform your family.”
“No need!”
Yin Hehe was a bit panicked.
Was he really idle with nothing to do? Or was he just full? She should have starved him if she knew!
“My family… they are all gone,” she declared the death of her entire family.
In fact, it wasn’t far from the truth. Now, except for her grandmother and elder brother, everyone else might as well be dead, right?
Yin Hehe recalled the instigator behind her nearly fatal ordeal this time.
A cold glint passed through her eyes.
Sheng Siyuan also froze for a moment, probably not expecting that this woman would go as far as to fake the death of her entire Yin family to deceive him.
Then wasn’t Yin Beixiao raising a thankless wretch as well?
His eyes twitched, and he continued eating.
“Mr. Sheng, thank you. You truly are a good person.”
All of a sudden, the woman even praised him.
A good person?
Upon hearing this word, Sheng Siyuan couldn’t describe his feelings for a moment.
But when he saw her amber-colored eyes revealed outside the mask, which seemed truly sincere at this moment, he couldn’t help but laugh in exasperation.
“How so?”
“Better than Zhao Jiu. Mr. Sheng, you are my lifesaver,” Yin Hehe stated plainly and crisply.
She wasn’t lying with those words.
On that ship, if he hadn’t appeared in the nick of time, she might have well ended up dead at the hands of the scarred man.
So, at this moment, her gratitude was genuine.
The hospital room quieted down.
Perhaps her expression was too earnest, as the man started to believe her, observing her for a long time without a word.
“Mr. Sheng?”
“All right, you can go back now.”
Sheng Siyuan finally came back to his senses.
A flicker of unease crossed his eyes as he looked down at his food and casually told the woman she could go back.
He decided to be magnanimous and not hold it against her.
But upon hearing it, the woman just quietly stared at his face for a while, then her gaze went cold.
A look of deep disappointment showed on her face.
Sending her back to the hotel?
Was he starting to test her again? After tormenting her half to death during the day, was he still not satisfied?
“Mr. Sheng, didn’t you ask me to stay here 24 hours? Captain Xu canceled my hotel room.”
“I’ll have him reopen it for you.”
Sheng Siyuan replied indifferently and directly picked up the phone beside him.
Yin Hehe fell silent.
She looked at this man for a long time, then straightened up, preparing to leave.
She had been holding back for a long time this evening, all for the sake of her plan to escape successfully.
She had been enduring him all along.
But now, it seemed there was no need to anymore.
As Yin Hehe left for the last time, she picked up another bottle of milk and placed it in front of the man.
“Mr. Sheng, if you get hungry at night, have some milk,” she said.
“?”
Sheng Siyuan paused, taken aback.
For a moment, still holding the spoon, he looked at the bottle of milk in front of him, and at the woman who stood before him.
It felt like he was transported back five years.
He remembered back then, how he was tormented by illness every day, unable to eat or sleep, living a life worse than death.
Late, he discovered he could occasionally drink some milk.
Thus, each evening before going to bed, there would always be a bottle of warm milk on his nightstand.
She said, “Siyuan, if you get hungry, have some milk.”
…
Chapter 43 He finally called out her name: “Yin Hehe! Yin Hehe returned to the hotel that night.
However, she didn’t contact anyone, nor did she exhibit any unusual behavior; once she reached the hotel, she quickly went to sleep.
A good night’s sleep.
The next day.
Hospital internal medicine department.
Sheng Siyuan woke up very early that day, but after getting up, he didn’t ask about the situation at the hotel.
Instead, he first inquired about the transplant surgery in Country M.
“Did the doctor say the surgery is today?”
“Yes, I’ve arranged for people to be there, and Dr. Shen has gone too. The president can rest assured.”
Xu Guannan was afraid that his boss would hear about the child’s surgery and become restless, wanting to go to Country M himself.
So he quickly offered reassurance.
Fortunately, the man seemed satisfied with the response.
“Okay, notify me immediately if there’s any news. Also, concerning the Jiangbei side, are the police about to land with their team?”
He suddenly remembered this matter.
Xu Guannan hastily nodded: “Yes, president, rest assured, I’ve already arranged for people to wait at the airport.”
“Mm.”
Having heard this, the man said nothing else.
But, changes often happen in an instant, and to everyone’s surprise, just after their conversation ended and Sheng Siyuan went out for a check-up,
Xu Guannan’s phone rang.
“What did you say? Yin Beixiao?”
He gripped the phone, his face turning pale upon hearing that name.
“Yes, Xu, right when those police officers were taking the people off the plane, that young master from the Song Family and Yin Beixiao appeared.”
“…”
“Then, they took the nanny away under the pretense that they were Miss Yin’s family members!”
The voice of the bodyguard on the phone trembled as he delivered the last sentence.
Xu Guannan immediately hung up the phone fiercely!
Damn it to hell.
He immediately left the ward to tell Sheng Siyuan about the incident, but just as he got outside, he saw several people in police uniforms hurriedly approaching.
“Mr. Xu, I’m from the local police, is Mr. Sheng not here?”
“What’s the matter?”
Xu Guannan had no choice but to stop and ask them.
Those people arrived and brought him more bad news.
“We need to inform you of an important matter: Zhao Jiu’s gang, it turns out his superior in Southeast Asia is a major international drug trafficking organization, and after we destroyed their line here, they are harboring a grudge against Mr. Sheng.”
“What do you mean?” Xu Guannan sensed a whiff of danger.
“According to our intelligence, the gang has already sent assassins here with the explicit goal of eliminating Mr. Sheng.”
These police officers finally made their purpose clear.
So, they were there to protect Sheng Siyuan today?
Xu Guannan’s expression grew serious, not because he worried he couldn’t handle the assassins, but because his boss was in a state of unreturned health.
Any disturbance would be detrimental to him!
Xu Guannan quickly located Sheng Siyuan in the inspection department and quickly put forward his plan.
“President, the priority now is to leave here as soon as possible, putting your health first.”
“Mm.”
Sheng Siyuan agreed.
However, as he was getting ready to return to his ward, he gave a casual instruction: “Remember to bring that nurse from the hotel.”
Xu Guannan: “…”
Even at this time, to bring that nurse?
He couldn’t quite understand.
But since his master had ordered it, he dared not disobey, so he had someone rush to the hotel again.
Unexpectedly, just as his sent person brought the young nurse to the hospital, the assassins from Southeast Asia also arrived.
“Bang!”
In an instant, after a bullet was fired, the entire outpatient building descended into chaos.
The young nurse, screaming, clutched her head; if it weren’t for the bodyguard beside her holding her, she might have been unable to even crawl.
“Get up, the president is still waiting for us above,” the bodyguard said, frustrated at the sight of her cowardice.
With great difficulty, they managed to drag her into the elevator.
But then, they realized that the elevator buttons weren’t responding.
“Ah—”
The young nurse saw this and, as if anticipating something terrible, immediately screamed in fear and tried to run out.
However, it was already too late.
As the elevator doors slammed shut with a “bang,” it began to ascend by itself.
“Ah!!! Help me!!!” The sound of desperate cries for help echoed inside the elevator.
Xu Guannan received the news at that moment.
Already on high alert, he cursed violently and had no choice but to rush out with his phone in hand.
“Where are you going?”
In a critical moment, the man who was changing clothes in the hospital room noticed him.
Xu Guannan had to stop and, after a long moment, hesitantly said from outside, “The nurse has had an accident; she’s trapped in the elevator.”
“…”
At his words, he saw the man’s pupils contract sharply.
Quickly, they both headed toward the scene of the accident, only to find that by the time they arrived, the sightseeing elevator had already reached the top floor.
Then suddenly, like a sandbag with its ropes cut, it plummeted from the top floor dozens of meters high in a straight fall!
“Ah—”
“Yin Hehe!!”
The woman’s shrill, desperate scream came from the elevator,
Sheng Siyuan heard himself roaring out that name.
After five years, he finally called her name face-to-face, but it was at the moment when she truly approached death before him.
Sheng Siyuan didn’t remember how he ran over there.
All he knew was that when he came to his senses, he was standing at the bottom of the building, staring at the pool of blood that was oozing from within, his eyes opened wide in shock beyond the lenses of his glasses.
Red, white…
…and mixed with some unidentifiable debris.
“President?”
Xu Guannan came over too.
After seeing the scene, the horrifying image also made him gasp in shock.
How could this nurse have such bad luck? She had already survived a shipping accident, only to die here.
But, just now, when the president had run over in his frenzy, had he been screaming the name “Yin Hehe”?
Xu Guannan stepped up behind the president and observed his ashen face, his eyes fixated on the pool of blood as though they were transfixed.
He didn’t dare touch him.
This look was too terrifying, he had never seen it before.
“President, don’t be too hard on yourself. This isn’t your fault. Let’s head back first, it’s not safe here,” he tried to console him.
But as soon as the words left his mouth, he saw the man suddenly move; he rushed over and began prying at the elevator doors with his bare hands.
“President, are you alright?”
Xu Guannan was startled and immediately ran over to stop him.
But it was no use.
At that moment, the man seemed to have lost all reason. Dragging his not yet fully recovered body, his pale fingers that were more accustomed to dealing with documents, tried time and again to pry open the doors in front of the astonished and incredulous eyes of the onlookers.
In the end, his hands were full of blood, even his fingernails were cracked and broken.
Xu Guannan: “…”
Eventually, he couldn’t watch anymore and joined the effort himself.
Fortunately, the elevator was already damaged from the fall and soon, they managed to wrench the doors open.
“Ah—”
As the doors opened, an even more gruesome scene unfolded before everyone’s eyes, prompting a chorus of voices too pained to watch any longer.
Xu Guannan also averted his gaze slightly.
What was inside was barely recognizable as human remains.
The man stood motionless once more, his hand bloody from holding the elevator frame, slowly pressing against his own chest…
Chapter 44 She Deceived Him Again! Sheng Siyuan was sent back to the ward.
Afterwards, he lay on the hospital bed for a full two hours before he finally came around.
“Mr. Xu, based on your description, Mr. Sheng has undergone heart transplant surgery in the past, so even after recovery, it is still not advisable for him to encounter too much stimulation,”
the doctor advised Xu Guannan after seeing him awake.
Xu Guannan had already been scared out of his wits, and upon hearing this, he quickly nodded his head to show he remembered.
Soon, the other bodyguards also arrived.
“Brother Xu, the scene has been cleaned up, the assassins have all been killed. Except for our brother who died with the nurse, everyone else is fine.”
“…”
Xu Guannan felt a heavy heart once again.
However, after glancing at the man who had awakened in the ward, he still gave the order, “Cremate the nurse and take her back with us.”
“Yes.”
The bodyguards quickly left.
Only then did Xu Guannan enter the ward again.
In the room faintly smelling of disinfectant, which was still very quiet, this man who had already awakened had lain in bed for so long without uttering a single word.
He just kept staring at the ceiling.
Nobody knew what he was thinking.
Xu Guannan: “…”
After hesitating for a long while, he finally approached.
“President, let’s not leave today, you should rest well here first,” he suggested.
“…”
There was no response.
The man remained silent.
Xu Guannan swallowed hard, not knowing what to say anymore. He could only turn around and leave again, thinking to wait until this person had more time to recover.
A nurse he had just met, yet also a member of the crime syndicate.
Did her death really affect him so much?
“Brother Xu, Jiangbei called again, asking if we should forcibly bring back the nanny from Yin Beixiao’s place?”
Just as he stepped out of the ward, another bodyguard came up to him.
Seeing Xu Guannan, he told him about another troublesome matter.
“Do you even need to ask? You can’t even handle such a trivial matter and still have the nerve to ask me?”
Xu Guannan cursed as soon as he opened his mouth.
The bodyguard didn’t dare to speak.
But it was this very sentence that suddenly triggered movement from the man in the ward.
He lay on the hospital bed, and those eyes that had been staring blankly at the ceiling for so long trembled slightly.
In a moment, the bodyguard at the door saw him slowly look over in their direction.
“Pre… President?” he was stunned.
Xu Guannan immediately turned back.
“President, do you want to get up? I’ll help you,” he saw that the man was preparing to rise from the hospital bed.
Overcome with elation, he rushed over.
A few minutes later, the extremely weak man finally sat up firmly, and his gaze gradually fell on his assistant.
“What were you just talking about? What happened over at Jiangbei?” he asked.
“President…” Xu Guannan’s face turned pale on the spot.
“It’s… about the nanny. I haven’t had the chance to tell you yet, but we received a call from there this morning saying that our people were waiting for the police at the airport when Yin Beixiao also arrived.”
“Yin Beixiao?”
Upon hearing this, the man’s pupils abruptly contracted.
That was the name he had just heard.
“And then? Was she taken away by him?”
“Yes, I’m very sorry, President, our people were at a standoff with him for a long time, but he used Miss Yin’s family status, and we had no way of fighting him for her!”
Xu Guannan explained with guilt.
He truly had no way to deal with the situation.
Just like last time when the BOSS had the nanny sent to the police station, at the time, he wanted to deport her.
But with Yin Beixiao’s arrival, the police had no choice but to release her.
Xu Guannan braced himself for the boss’s reprimand.
However, oddly enough, after he spoke, the man in front of him didn’t make the slightest move, and all that could be heard was his suddenly erratic breathing.
Xu Guannan: “…”
“President? Are you okay?” He watched his chest rising and falling rapidly and couldn’t help but start to worry.
Yet the man still didn’t answer him.
Instead, after sitting in the dead silence for a few seconds, he suddenly “whooshed” out of the hospital bed.
“President, you…”
“Where’s the female corpse? Where is she? Take me to see her immediately!” he ordered with fierce urgency.
In just a few seconds, his entire demeanor became like a gathering storm, the enormous darkness swirling in his pupils was terrifying to behold.
Xu Guannan’s scalp tingled with numbness.
Quickly, the two of them left the ward and dashed towards the mortuary of the hospital.
“President, slow down, your health is in poor condition, it’s not good to move so abruptly.”
Xu Guannan was worried several times that the man might fall.
But in reality, even though his steps were unsteady and his face was pale to an alarming degree, he still insisted on reaching the mortuary.
“Bang!”
Upon arrival, he kicked the door open.
By the time Xu Guannan went over to try to support him, the man had already stumbled into the room, clutching his chest.
“What are you doing?”
Just then, the staff inside were pushing out a female corpse, preparing to cremate her.
Upon seeing this, he rolled over like a gust of wind, startling the staff, and at that moment, he stared at the female corpse and fiercely pulled at the shroud.
“President!”
Xu Guannan cried out in alarm.
But it was too late—the white cloth covering the female corpse was ripped away by him.
And the shocking visage of the corpse was revealed once more.
Xu Guannan: “…”
What on earth was wrong with this boss? Wasn’t one glance enough, and he wanted to be shocked a second time by such a gruesome death?
“President, don’t feel too guilty. I’ve already asked the hospital to find a cosmetic mortician; they will take care of this nurse…”
“Don’t talk!”
He finally spoke up.
But to Xu Guannan’s shock, he wasn’t about to express sorrow or remorse for the nurse.
Instead, he stared at the disfigured corpse, beginning to examine it with a sharp gaze.
Xu Guannan: “…”
Not daring to speak again, he waited carefully by the side.
Two minutes later, he finally saw the man take action; he walked in front of the female corpse, staring at the area over her chest. Within that gaze like a storm about to break, he hesitated for three seconds.
“Hiss—”
He finally made his move.
The pale fingers, so white that even the veins were visible, forcibly tore off the clothes from the body of the female corpse!
“President!!”
“Sir, what are you doing? I’m calling the police!”
Xu Guannan immediately turned his head away.
And the mortuary staff furiously scolded him.
But the man ignored them, his gaze fixed on the ample curve over the chest of the female corpse as if rooted in place.
No!
This female corpse, her left breast indeed didn’t have that cherry-red mole.
His eyes slowly closed.
In an instant, the heart that had been cooling in his chest for nearly a day seemed to come alive again, his fingers nearly crushing in his grasp.
She wasn’t dead!
He began trembling with relief.
However, as the burden was lifted, a towering fury washed over him like a tsunami, bringing with it anger, disappointment, and loathing…
In just a few seconds, his pupils were a bloody red, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he seemed capable of destroying the world!
Chapter 45: Escaping by Shedding a Golden Cicada Skin In the country, Jiangbei.
After Yin Hehe successfully landed, she was taken away by Song Wenjing at the first opportunity at the airport.
“I’ll take you to my place first. You need to change clothes with the nanny. If you do it at your brother’s, you’ll probably be discovered,” Song Wenjing said.
“Mmhmm, thank you.”
Yin Hehe was very grateful for the help of this good friend.
Half an hour later, she was brought to Song Mansion, and sure enough, as soon as she entered, she saw a young woman running out.
“Lan, have you finally come back?”
Wearing a familiar face, the young woman rushed towards Yin Hehe with great enthusiasm upon her return.
Yin Hehe immediately stiffened.
This face… no matter how she looked at it, it gave her the unsettling feeling of embracing herself.
Fortunately, the other party was just being playful.
“Alright, Lan, welcome back. How are you? Are you alright?” she asked, taking Yin Hehe’s hand with a cheerful smile, showing concern.
Only then did Yin Hehe manage a smile.
“I’m fine, Miss Qiandai, I’m very thankful for your help this time.”
“What’s there to thank? You’re Caicai’s good friend, which makes you my friend too. Besides, you’ve helped me before.”
Meishan Qiandai, pouting playfully, took a seat in front of the mirror.
After a moment, Yin Hehe, standing behind her, saw her remove her face-changing makeup, revealing a face of peerless beauty that belonged to an era of great prosperity.
The Thousand-faced Enchantress truly lived up to her reputation.
“Don’t drool, Lan, how can you be sure this is my real face?” Qiandai teased.
“…”
The admiration that had just begun to rise within Yin Hehe was immediately squashed without a trace.
Indeed, the renowned Thousand Spider Hands had always been shrouded in mystery, known only for her masterful Face Changing Technique.
But to this day, no one had seen her true face.
“But anyway, I definitely show my most beautiful side to Lan. Otherwise, how could I live up to the time you saved me?” Qiandai continued as she came over and reached out to remove the mask from Yin Hehe’s face.
Yin Hehe: “…”
“Damn it, who the hell did this? I’m going to kill him!”
With that single motion, as Qiandai caught sight of Yin Hehe’s still-swollen face, she cursed in their native language.
Yin Hehe’s eyes twitched, and she quickly explained, “No, I purposely made my face swollen so my ex-husband wouldn’t recognize me.”
“…”
In the end, Meishan Qiandai didn’t say anything further.
She began to reduce the swelling on Yin Hehe’s face while muttering, “Such a beautiful face, Lan, I think you should learn from me. What if it’s ruined in the future?”
“What?”
Yin Hehe didn’t understand.
“I mean the Face Changing Technique. If you master it, you won’t have to be so passive in front of your ex-husband,” Qiandai explained.
“…”
Yin Hehe was silent for a moment, but her mind was stirring.
Yes, if she had known this skill earlier, she wouldn’t have suffered so much in Northern Myanmar; at least, she wouldn’t have had to rely on ruining her own face to get through.
“Moreover, you are very smart. The Moon Goddess you helped create to get me through a crisis previously, and the way you eluded capture on the ship this time, both prove you have a natural talent for this,” Qiandai said, seeing her quiet, she added another comment.
The Moon Goddess was a very famous figure in R country, remarkably beautiful and immensely talented. Three years ago, she appeared at a Royal Family banquet as a songstress and played an original composition, “Moon Goddess”, that stunned the entire R country.
She hasn’t come down from her pedestal since then.
What no one knew was that this feat was actually the work of the Thousand-faced Enchantress.
Back then, Qiandai faced a family crisis. As the heir, without enough leverage in her hands, she was framed by her own clan and was on the verge of losing her inheritance rights.
So in the end, she sought Yin Hehe through Caicai, a woman with an excellent bone structure, and together they created the sensational Moon Goddess.
Of course, the composition was genuinely created by Yin Hehe.
In school, apart from her major in law, she also had a keen interest in music, which was clear since her ex-boyfriend, Chu Yan, was the craze of the entire school.
Many songs were written by her.
“But, how could I be worthy of being Miss Qiandai’s apprentice? You don’t know, countless people around the world are lining up and can’t even find you to become your disciple.”
Yin Hehe still gladly accepted.
Meishan Qiandai gave her an annoyed glance and took out her tools. She formally started her first lesson on her face.
…
That evening, a well-taught Yin Hehe returned to Emperor Noble Manor in the guise of the nanny, Han Lina.
“Mr. Yin, you’re back?”
The setting sun of the evening was always as red as fire during this hot summer season.
She entered and immediately saw a tall man in the garden, standing in that fiery afterglow, looking towards the entrance.
It was as if… he was waiting for her to return.
“Hmm, just got off work, did you go to the Song Family?”
Yin Beixiao cleared his throat twice, descending the steps and asked casually.
Yin Hehe quickly nodded her head.
“Yes, Mr. Song took me to the hospital this afternoon for a follow-up on my leg injury.”
She threw out the excuse she had already coordinated with Meishan Qiandai.
That woman had actually been staying at Emperor Noble Manor these past two days, so if there were any changes, Yin Hehe couldn’t afford a slip-up when she returned.
Her brother heard this, took a glance at her foot, and indeed believed her.
“How is it? Your leg is alright now, isn’t it?”
He asked with concern.
Yin Hehe immediately responded with a “yes”: “It’s fine now, thank you, Mr. Yin, and also, thank you for bringing me back this time.”
“What are you talking about? Since you are my sister’s person, shouldn’t bringing you back be the right thing to do?”
Yin Beixiao waved his hand dismissively, leaving a bold statement behind.
Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe standing in front of him felt a surge of warmth inside.
She truly felt fortunate, despite her family being in shambles, there was still someone like him to shelter her from the storm and protect her in every way.
So, when she had previously told that scumbag Sheng Siyuan in Northern Myanmar that all her family members had died, she definitely didn’t include her brother.
Her brother was from the main family and wasn’t part of her household registry.
“Since you’re fine, then rest well at home these few days. The child won’t be returning so quickly after the surgery, so you can take this time to recover.”
Yin Beixiao, now certain this girl was unharmed, let his heart rest at ease.
This arrangement was surely very thoughtful.
However, after hearing this, Yin Hehe thought of some things and couldn’t relax.
This time, she had stirred up such a big mess in Northern Myanmar and even had “herself” die in front of that man in such a tragic way.
Would he not find out?
If he did, what would his reaction be?
Yin Hehe was on guard.
Two days later, in the early morning.
“Miss Han, you don’t need to do these things; your leg injury hasn’t healed yet. You should go and rest.”
“Yes, Miss Han, our young master has already instructed us to take good care of you. See, I even made soup for you.”
“…”
Yin Hehe appreciated the kindness from these servants early in the morning.
This was definitely her brother’s doing.
But some still looked at her with displeasure, just like when she first moved in here.
“Why does she keep lingering here and not leave? Doesn’t she have any sense of shame?”
“Indeed, now our young master has been punished by the old master because of her matter, and she still doesn’t know better. Even if the young missy were here, she wouldn’t be so shameless, right?”
The two servants who had always disliked her, seeing her not having to work and even being waited on, immediately started complaining discontentedly not far away.
Yin Hehe listened.
Her brother was punished by the old master?
What happened?
