Chapter 186: Jian Yixin's True Face

Sheng Hanyu briefly explained the situation regarding the Jian Family to Shi Youxuan, and he had to go out to look for someone.

Shi Youxuan readily agreed: "Go quickly, and be careful on the road."

"I know."

Just as Sheng Hanyu went out, a gale began to blow. The sky had been clear for thousands of miles just a moment ago, but before one knew it, thick clouds drifted over in patches, quickly forming a heavy layer, and bean-sized raindrops began to patter down!

He had an umbrella in his car, but in this kind of weather, an umbrella was useless.

Shi Youxuan worried for Sheng Hanyu, and she also worried for Jian Yixin.

If she worried that Jian Yixin would not easily let Sheng Hanyu go and would continue to pester him, what was she supposed to do?

Wasn't it said that she had lost her memory?

Having lost her memory, she didn't remember anyone else but only remembered Sheng Hanyu... Shi Youxuan began to feel annoyed and opened the window to get some air.

"Whoosh—"

The moment the window was opened a crack, a strong wind carrying raindrops rushed in, and the cold air hit her face, making it almost impossible to even open her eyes!

She hurriedly closed the window again. With such strong wind and rain, the sound of the wind in the room was already frightening; what were those people outside supposed to do?

Shi Youxuan called Sheng Hanyu, wanting to urge him to find a safe place to take shelter and wait until the wind and rain passed before going out to look for people. She took out her phone but didn't dial the number; after thinking about it, she decided against it.

It was useless to say anything; he wouldn't listen to her. She knew her husband's temper.

He felt a deep sense of guilt toward Jian Yixin. In this weather, who knew where Jian Yixin was? If she were alone outside, it would be very dangerous. How could he possibly wait for the weather to improve before looking for her as if nothing were wrong?

She was truly worried, yet she couldn't help with anything.

At this moment, the housekeeper came upstairs to deliver bird's nest to her. Shi Youxuan had a sudden inspiration and asked the housekeeper to tell the servants that whoever was willing to go out now to look for Jian Yining—regardless of whether they found him or not—would be given one thousand yuan as a search fee—a hardship allowance!

If they found him, she would give an additional ten thousand.

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men. If there were nothing going on, of course, no one would go out, but to earn one thousand yuan just by taking a turn in the wind and rain, everyone was still willing.

Not to mention that if they found the person, there was also a ten-thousand-yuan reward.

Many of the servants in the Villa were old hands who had followed Sheng Hanyu, and even if there were newcomers, they had seen Jian Yixin a few days ago and knew what she looked like.

Thus, almost everyone went out to search, and only the housekeeper remained.

Shi Youxuan said to the housekeeper: "You go to the opposite side and look. Could Jian Yixin have snuck back and hidden over there? The search fee is the same as everyone else's; you go over and take a look."

She was deliberately giving the housekeeper a chance to earn some extra money; she estimated that it was very likely Jian Yixin was hiding on the opposite side.

The housekeeper felt that the distance between the two sides wasn't far and it would be fine, and that she could return quickly after taking a look, so she agreed and went out.

Only Shi Youxuan was left in the Villa. She closed the main door and was just about to go upstairs when the door was suddenly "bang" pulled open, and a drenched woman rushed in, carrying the wind and rain with her.

The woman was dressed in black, her long hair plastered to her pale face, and her lips were frozen purple, looking just like a female ghost.

Even in such a disheveled state, Shi Youxuan still had sharp eyes and recognized that the woman who had rushed in was Jian Yixin!

"Jian Yixin, where have you been? Do you know that everyone has been looking for you?" Shi Youxuan intended to call Sheng Hanyu first and then let her take a hot bath; in this kind of weather, it would be best if she didn't catch a cold from the rain.

But when she met Jian Yixin's gaze, she couldn't help but shiver.

The corners of Jian Yixin's mouth were raised, her brows and eyes smiling, but the cold light in her pupils seemed to have been emitted from hell—chilling and vicious!

"You, what do you want to do?"

Jian Yixin pressed forward step by step, and Shi Youxuan retreated step by step, her hands instinctively covering her lower abdomen.

Because Jian Yixin's gaze was fixed on her lower abdomen, she had to protect her child.

"Shi Youxuan, you robber, I haven't settled the score with you for stealing my man, and you still have the face to be pregnant?" Jian Yixin's voice was also cold, a completely different person from the weak Jian Yixin of usual times.

Behind Shi Youxuan was the staircase; there was no way out.

Jian Yixin forced her way to the front and suddenly raised her leg to kick fiercely at her lower abdomen: "What do I want to do? I want to help you get rid of this bastard seed!"

"Help!"

Shi Youxuan took to her heels and ran upstairs. Jian Yixin kicked at empty air and immediately gave chase!

While chasing, she grinned hideously: "Stupid woman, the people in the Villa have all been sent away by you. Now there is only you here; even if you scream until your throat breaks, no one will help you!"

Shi Youxuan didn't have time to think about why Jian Yixin turned against her faster than flipping a book; she only wanted to hurry to the bedroom, lock the door, and then call for help!

But that woman was faster than her. Before she could run upstairs, she was already grabbed by Jian Yixin, who hugged her waist and slammed her against the railing!

A day ago, Shi Youxuan was still mocking Sheng Hanyu for wrapping these linen cloths on it, saying it looked so ugly, but now she was incomparably grateful for these thick linen cloths; her stomach hit them, and it didn't hurt.

But having lost her balance, Shi Youxuan fell onto the stairs.

She would not sit and wait for death; she kicked Jian Yixin in the leg, and the two of them began to scuffle on the stairs...

Shi Youxuan was not afraid of fighting; she was taller than Jian Yixin and had a bit more strength, but she was at a disadvantage because she had to protect her stomach, and she gradually began to run out of stamina.

Jian Yixin spotted an opening, grabbed her hair with one hand and pulled downward, dragging her to the doorway to push her out into the wind and rain.

"Heavens! What is going on here?"

The housekeeper had returned and exclaimed immediately upon seeing the two of them scuffling.

Jian Yixin's face was instantly covered in tears, and she begged pitifully: "Housekeeper, please, beg him to let me see Hanyu once. I will leave after seeing him just once, okay?"

Her appearance was as if Shi Youxuan were trying to drive her away; the fierce look from just a moment ago had completely vanished.

This woman changed her face faster than flipping a book, so fast that Shi Youxuan was stunned for a moment and hadn't reacted!

Meeting the housekeeper's dissatisfied gaze, she finally realized—this woman was acting; it was too detestable.

"Jian Yixin, you must speak with a conscience. You hit me as soon as you came in just now. If it weren't for Zhang Ma returning in time, I would have been dragged outside by you. Now you're pretending to be weak again? You weren't like this just a moment ago..."

But no matter what she said, Jian Yixin did not refute it; she only hid behind the housekeeper, clinging tightly to her and shivering, and in a moment, she "fainted."

"Miss Jian, Miss Jian!"

The housekeeper carried Jian Yixin to the sofa and immediately called Sheng Hanyu to tell him to come back.

After the call was made, she wanted to go to the kitchen to boil hot water, but seeing that Shi Youxuan was still standing in the living room, she didn't go; she guarded Jian Yixin without leaving her side, as if the Eldest Young Mistress would do something to Jian Yixin the moment she left.

The housekeeper was on guard against her, which was equivalent to believing Jian Yixin's words.

Shi Youxuan felt angry, but it wasn't too painful; it didn't matter if the housekeeper misunderstood, as long as Sheng Hanyu believed her.

Before long, the main door opened with a "bang," and several soaked people rushed in from outside.

Sheng Hanyu, and the three members of the Jian Family.

"Yixin!"

Lady Jian lunged over, and seeing her daughter's pale face, she immediately began to cry.

Jian Xiansheng started off very polite, politely thanking Shi Youxuan for finding his daughter.

"I didn't find her; she came here herself..." Shi Youxuan stated the facts stiffly, her expression unpleasant and her tone equally poor.

Having just been inexplicably and viciously beaten, no one would be able to greet them with a smile.

Before she could finish, Jian Yining asked: "Yingzi, what happened to your head?" He had sharp eyes and was the first to notice the bump swelling on her left forehead.

Shi Youxuan touched it with her hand; there was a bump. She hadn't felt it before, but now she felt a burning pain.

That was left over from when Jian Yixin intended to knee her in the stomach, and in her desperation, she had used her head to ram into Jian Yixin's head; she feared the bump on that woman's head was even bigger than hers.

Sure enough, before Jian Yining's voice had even faded, Lady Jian was already exclaiming: "What happened to Yixin's head? Why is there such a big bump? Sheng Furen, what did you do to Yixin?"
