Chapter 416 - Crisis of the Xu Family Sisters
Chapter 416 of "Super Soldier in the City" opens showing suspense: Chapter 416: Chapter 423 Crisis of the Xu Family SistersLi Yifei didnât do anything to... Continue the adventure!
Chapter 416: Chapter 423 Crisis of the Xu Family SistersLi Yifei didnât do anything to the two girls; he just fell asleep holding them. First, he couldnât do anything to Chu Xiaoyao, and second, he had already been intimate with Su Yiyi during the day. In such a situation, if he did anything to Su Yiyi, she would probably feel very embarrassed. Besides, he didnât want to do such things in front of Chu Xiaoyao; at most, he would dote on her a little, but he never considered going too far with her.
Li Yifei wasnât sure how long he had slept when he suddenly heard the ringtone of a cell phone. He quickly slid his arms from beneath the necks of the two girls, got out of bed without waking either of them, and went to find his phone.
He quickly located his phone, which displayed Xu Shanshanâs number. Li Yifei answered the call, and before he could speak, Xu Shanshanâs anxious voice came through, "Brother-in-law, somethingâs wrong. Someone is planning to harm us; please, come save us quickly."
Li Yifeiâs heart tightened as he responded, "Iâm on my way. Take care of yourselves."
"Brother-in-law, you have to hurry. Iâm making this call secretly while using the restroom. Those people wonât let my sister and me leave, and they clearly have bad intentions."
Li Yifeiâs eyes flashed with a cold light as he quickly instructed Xu Shanshan on a few self-defense techniques. While speaking, Li Yifei had already put on his clothes, opened the door, and, like a swift cheetah, dashed out.
Eden is a splendid resort, a beautiful sanctuary with top-notch facilities. The front part is open to regular guests, but thereâs a large area in the back thatâs exclusively for the wealthy, offering superior services and luxury.
It was at the garden in the back of Eden where Xu Yingying was attending a cocktail party.
At first, the party seemed normal enough, with officials making speeches and business discussions, but around 9 pm, some people left while many young people stayed behind.
If it were a usual day, Xu Yingying wouldnât have stayed, but since Li Yifei had gone to meet Su Yiyi, and although she had agreed without making much of a fuss, the situation had put her in a poor mood. Therefore, she planned not to go home that evening to avoid being upset by Li Yifei not returning.
Also, among the people Xu Yingying was chatting with that day were a few she held in high regard. These individuals had solid foundations in Mile City and even the province. Especially Hongji Company had some connections to the development of her current company. If she could foster a good relationship with them, it would greatly benefit her companyâs operations.
As someone experienced in the workplace, Xu Yingying would normally be able to predict peopleâs intentions, but Director Fang Yeyu of Hongji Company had always acted appropriately. He didnât show any untoward intentions, just the shrewdness of a businessman, so Xu Yingying didnât expect at all that Fang Yeyu would do anything to harm her.
Xu Shanshan found such business discussions utterly dull and had wandered off to play outside long ago. There was plenty to do, so she wasnât bored.
Feeling tired from playing, Xu Shanshan casually sat down behind some flower bushes to rest. If someone approached from the front, they would see her immediately, but from behind, she was completely out of sight.
As Xu Shanshan rested, she overheard a manâs voice; he was on the phone.
"Young Master Song, the person you wanted has taken the bait and is getting along well with me. When should we make our move?... Okay, then letâs wait until midnight before I slip something into her drink... No problem, Iâll make sure this goes smoothly for Young Master Song and wonât let any mistakes happen."
Out of curiosity, Xu Shanshan peeked out to look at the man, but she was shocked as soon as she did. The man was none other than Fang Yeyu, who had been discussing business with her sister. That meant the person Fang Yeyu intended to drug was her sister, Xu Yingying.
Now panicked, Xu Shanshan didnât feel like playing anymore and hurriedly took out her phone to call Xu Yingying, but Xu Yingyingâs phone was turned off. Xu Shanshan had no choice but to run to the small lounge where Xu Yingying was.
The men in the lounge greeted Xu Shanshan warmly as she entered. They all seemed quite gentlemanly, and had Xu Shanshan not overheard that phone call, she wouldnât have believed they had any ulterior motives.
"Sis, youâre not done talking yet? Iâm getting sleepy," Xu Shanshan said as she sat next to Xu Yingying, yawning and looking very tired.
Xu Yingying replied, "If youâre sleepy, go ahead and sleep; hasnât your room been prepared for you?" Xu Shanshanâs interruption during her business talk slightly displeased Xu Yingying.
Xu Shanshan muttered to herself about her sisterâs naivety and nudged her, saying, "Sis, I canât remember the way; take me there," and she also tried to give Xu Yingying meaningful glances secretly.
Sadly, Xu Yingying didnât notice Xu Shanshanâs signals at all; if she had, she would surely have realized her sister had something to tell her. She said, "Find a waiter, and theyâll take you. Go on, donât make trouble here, I still have some things to discuss."
"Shanshan, how about I escort you there?" a man named Cheng Dong said with a smile to Xu Shanshan.
Xu Shanshan pouted and responded, "No need, Iâll stay with my sister."
"Well then, if Shanshan is bored, how about I play a game with you?" Cheng Dong took a seat next to Xu Shanshan.
Regarding the enthusiasm of these people, Xu Shanshan understood that they just wanted to hold them back. Seeing that it was getting late, if things continued like this, it would become dangerous for her and her sister.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts." Xu Shanshan always had a head full of tricks and quickly came up with a plan. Then, holding her stomach, she ran into the restroom.
Everyone didnât pay much attention, and thatâs when Xu Shanshan secretly called Li Yifei.
After notifying Li Yifei, Xu Shanshan wasnât afraid anymore. As long as her brother-in-law was around, none of these so-called successful people were his match. Xu Shanshan wasnât a child anymore, and she shouldnât have been in the phase of blind worship, but her adoration for Li Yifei was truly blind. It seemed like as long as her brother-in-law stepped in, there was nothing in the world that couldnât be settled, even if all these people had strong backgrounds, they were no longer a concern for her.
Back in the living room, Xu Shanshan said cheerfully to Xu Yingying, "Sis, Iâve already called brother-in-law."
Xu Yingying frowned and asked, "Why did you call him?"
"He said he will be here soon," said Xu Shanshan, glancing at the faces of the men.
Fang Yeyu and Cheng Dongâs expressions both changed, but Fang Yeyuâs face quickly showed a smile as he said, "Little sister Shanshan is really clever."
Xu Shanshan winked at Fang Yeyu and responded, "Yeah, of course, I have to be smart. Otherwise, what if you put something in our drinks and do something to us later?"
Fang Yeyu laughed heartily and asked, "How did little sister Shanshan come to know I had such an idea?"
Xu Shanshan was taken aback, not expecting Fang Yeyu to admit it. Her initial statement was deliberate to make it harder for them to act, and also to remind Xu Yingying. But to her surprise, Fang Yeyu admitted directly, which disrupted her rhythm.
Xu Yingyingâs expression changed, but she immediately said with a smile to Fang Yeyu, "Director Fang, that joke isnât very funny."
Fang Yeyu squinted his eyes and responded, "President Xu, Iâm not joking here. Didnât you notice that the wine you just drank tasted a bit off? Also, arenât you feeling a bit dizzy now?"
Xu Yingyingâs face turned pale rapidly, and she truly felt dizzy. Glaring fiercely, she shouted, "Fang Yeyu, you dare!"
Fang Yeyu chuckled and said, "President Xu, Iâve already done it. What is there for me not to dare? But you donât have to be angry. Someone has long harbored admiration for you and resorted to this strategy. Actually, this matter has no downsides for you at all. Once that person starts taking great care of you, you, President Xu, will no longer be someone elseâs employee but the true owner of a fortune worth billions."
"Bastard!" Xu Shanshan suddenly stood up and splashed a cup of wine across Fang Yeyuâs face with a flick of her wrist.
Fang Yeyu just dodged subconsciously and was drenched from head to toe, but he didnât get annoyed and simply laughed lightly, "Little sister Shanshan, your sister is a dish on someone elseâs plate, but I have a special fondness for you. I like your wildness."
"Keep dreaming!"
At that moment, Xu Yingying pulled Xu Shanshan back and coldly said to Fang Yeyu, "Director Fang, I never thought that someone of your standing would stoop to such actions. I advise you to stop now. Doing this will do you no good."
Fang Yeyu simply smiled and replied, "President Xu, I feel that doing this benefits me greatly."
"Really? Perhaps you donât know who my backer is?" said Xu Yingying, her gaze icy as she looked at Fang Yeyu.
"Your backer? Iâm all ears," said Fang Yeyu with the same faint smile on his face.
"Su Mengxin from Capital City. My company belongs to Su Mengxin. If you dare to lay a finger on me, I will make sure Su Mengxin deals with you. Your power might not be weak, but compared to Su Mengxin... hmph." Xu Yingying started to feel increasingly dizzy, and a warm current surged in her body, a sensation she was all too familiar with, one that she felt every time she slept with Li Yifei. She realized that she had ingested not only a drug but also likely some kind of aphrodisiac. This startled her, so she immediately brought up Su Mengxin, trying to intimidate Fang Yeyu.
Fang Yeyuâs face finally shifted, and he said in a heavy tone, "Youâre one of Su Mengxinâs people?"
"Thatâs right!" Xu Yingying replied resolutely.
Fang Yeyuâs expression changed repeatedly, clearly daunted by the name of Su Mengxin.
