Chapter 29: Just Arrogant
"I didn't say anything, but he seems to know everything." Jian Yining was telling the truth.
"Know what?" Shi Youxuan asked again.
Jian Yining said: "Know that you are my business partner."
"Just that?"
Shi Youxuan let out a long breath. She had thought Sheng Hanyu had recognized who she was; if it was only that, then it was nothing.
Seeing that Yingzi didn't seem angry, Jian Yining gathered his courage and asked the question in his heart: "What is your relationship with Sheng Hanyu?"
Shi Youxuan didn't tell the truth, vaguely saying: "Acquaintances, not close."
She paused and added: "I lived in his villa for a few days, but he doesn't know who I am. I hope you won't tell him."
"Uh-huh."
Jian Yining nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Don't worry, I definitely won't say anything."
Shi Youxuan asked: "Last time you stopped me from going to negotiate with Dingsheng, saying the boss of Dingsheng was your sister's fiancé—was that person Sheng Hanyu?"
"That's right." He said: "Even if you didn't ask, I was just about to tell you. You are using my sister's ID card, and now he suspects you are my sister. Do you want to consider explaining it?"
Shi Youxuan felt a massive headache.
She had originally thought that leaving Sheng Hanyu would allow her to start a new life, so why was it getting more and more complicated?
"Forget it, don't explain. Is it convenient for you to get me another new identity?" Shi Youxuan asked.
"Of course I can." Jian Yining agreed, but couldn't help being curious: "You don't look very old. What did you do that requires a fake identity?"
Was this acting as a fugitive for her?
Shi Youxuan felt a bit chaotic inside; there were many things that needed to be sorted out again, so she replied crossly: "Murder."
"You'd better keep your mouth shut, otherwise I'll kill you to silence you!"
In her haste, she didn't notice that her original voice had slipped out, fresh and melodious.
Her feigned ferocity wasn't scary at all. Jian Yining found it very cute, and even felt an urge he couldn't suppress to tear off her mask and see what Yingzi really looked like!
He held back, swallowed his saliva, and asked: "How should I give it to you once the new ID card is ready?"
Shi Youxuan gave him the address of the Apartment and told him to mail it there, then left the hotel through the staff exit to go home.
Sheng Hanyu's seaside Villa.
Shi Yucheng came out from the main gate, still fuming and unable to let it go!
His daughter was indeed not there. Sheng Hanyu had let him search upstairs and downstairs, even the storage room. Not to mention Shi Youxuan not being there, even the teddy bear doll she always held in her arms was gone!
Of the things belonging to Shi Youxuan, the only thing missing was the teddy bear doll. Her clothes, jewelry... she hadn't taken any of the valuable things. She only took the worthless Zai Zai; how would she survive outside?
Shi Yucheng's heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife, yet he was helpless.
Sheng Hanyu's housekeeper told him that the Eldest Young Mistress had been driven away by her mother-in-law, and for this, the Eldest Young Master had flown into a rage and even driven his own mother out!
Sheng Hanyu sent people to search everywhere, but not only did he fail to find her, he was also taken advantage of by the Second Young Master, losing his position as General Manager for the sake of Xuanxuan...
Shi Yucheng was not an unreasonable person. He knew Sheng Hanyu had already done enough; continuing to make a scene would be inappropriate.
Sheng Hanyu stood behind the curtains, watching Shi Yucheng's aged figure get into the car and drive away.
He felt just as bad inside. Shi Youxuan was lost, and he bore an inescapable responsibility. He had lost before, so he knew how painful this feeling was.
Sheng Family Mansion.
Before Sheng Hanyu arrived, the old master had already rested.
The old man didn't stay up late and slept early, but everyone else hadn't slept and was gathered in the living room chatting about the fool's disappearance!
Bai Xue lectured her sister-in-law with her nose in the air: "Sister-in-law, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you're at your age and still do things so unreliably. You were asked to talk about company matters, but you ran off to drive away your daughter-in-law."
"Don't you know what kind of temper your own son has?" Bai Xue raised her eyebrows, very smug: "Don't look at Sheng Hanyu as being born by you; he won't support you in the future. The matter of you and the eldest brother being provided for in your old age still depends on A Kai."
Bai Xue had two sons, Sheng Yukai and Sheng Zerong, but because Sheng Zerong was better to his older cousin than to his own brother, she didn't like her younger son.
The younger son lived alone outside and only came back to visit during holidays.
Sheng Jiang was unconvinced and wanted to refute, but didn't know what to say, and was even more afraid that the words he mustered the courage to say would be retorted by a single sentence from his younger sister-in-law.
His lips quivered a few times, and in the end, he said nothing.
Wang Yingzhi had always been someone without a mind of her own. Having been bullied by her sister-in-law for so long, she had no thoughts of her own at all; whatever Bai Xue said was the truth.
When Bai Xue said that her old-age support would depend on Sheng Yukai in the future, she went to butter up her nephew.
Wang Yingzhi diligently picked up a plate of sliced oranges and placed it in front of Sheng Yukai: "A Kai, eat some fruit, it's especially sweet."
"Bang!"
The main door was kicked open. Sheng Hanyu brought people in, giving everyone a fright.
Seeing Sheng Hanyu break in, Sheng Yukai subconsciously wanted to run.
But he was grabbed by Sheng Hai and pulled behind him. Sheng Hai sank his face and lectured his nephew: "Hanyu, do you have any manners left? The elders are all here and you just break in like this. If someone didn't know, they'd think a robber had entered the house."
Bai Xue immediately chimed in: "Exactly, the old master is already asleep. You made such a big commotion and startled Dad; if he has a heart attack, we won't be done with you."
She was actually feeling guilty and brought up the old master's name to scare Sheng Hanyu.
Sheng Hanyu ignored the two of them. The people he brought had already surrounded the living room; the stairs, front door, and back door were all guarded, and no one could get out.
"Sheng Yukai, this is a matter between the two of us. If you don't want to drag your parents into this, come with me." He said coldly.
Sheng Yukai's previous smugness was now completely gone. He hid behind his father and couldn't help but tremble; he couldn't control it at all!
"Dad, I, what should I do?" He had seen Sheng Hanyu's methods and didn't want to experience them a second time in this life.
Sheng Hai comforted his son: "It's fine, with Dad here, he can't take you away."
"Sheng Hanyu, don't be reckless. This is the Sheng Family Mansion, and these are all your elders. It's not your turn to be barking orders here."
Bai Xue looked around for Wang Yingzhi, wanting her to manage her own son, but Wang Yingzhi had slipped away faster than a rabbit, having run back to her room long before the bodyguards blocked the exit.
"Big Brother, your son ran back here to act like a fool, why don't you do something about it?" Unable to find Wang Yingzhi, Bai Xue could only issue an order to her brother-in-law.
Sheng Jiang replied slowly: "I had better take care of myself; I can't control anyone but myself."
With her sister-in-law having slipped away and her brother-in-law refusing to intervene, Bai Xue's eyes darted around as she thought of a plan.
Before she could come up with one, Sheng Hanyu ordered his bodyguards: "Do it."
The bodyguards rushed over, pulled Sheng Jiang and Bai Xue apart without a word, and began to punch and kick Sheng Yukai.
Sheng Yukai had no ability to fight back at all; he had originally wanted to act tough and threaten them, but before he could even open his mouth, his front teeth were kicked out, and he spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with teeth with a "Pfft!"
"Stop! You are going too far! Sheng Hanyu, everything you do to my son, I will pay back to your mother in full." Bai Xue's eyes were wide with rage; seeing her son being beaten in front of her, a mother's heart felt as if it were being fried and roasted in oil.
Seeing the threat to Wang Yingzhi, the bodyguards hesitated and stopped, but Sheng Hanyu said coldly: "Continue."
