Chapter 343: Sense of Crisis

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sean smiled embarrassedly and said, “No, no. No matter how good our relationship with the people of the Blood Oath is, it can’t compare to the closeness of our Immaculate internal department. 1 can still distinguish between the inside and the outside. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do a good job of transferring the base after the New Year.”

“I’ll help too.” Lin Si smiled mischievously. Ignoring Sean’s glare, he continued to report the operations of the casino in M City to Shi Man.

With Lin Si by her side, there seemed to be endless things to say.

Shi Man listened patiently until they got out of the car.

At least in Yi Zheng’s eyes, Shi Man’s smile was much happier than when she was with him.

Yi Zheng stood silently at the side and watched quietly. It was not until the two of them were about to walk into the company that he suddenly said, “Manman, it’s not convenient to bring these people into the company. Let’s bring them to my base.”

Shi Man stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him. The smile on her lips had yet to fade. “There’s no need. These people instigated the crowd to hurt my mother in front of so many people. 1 should resolve this matter openly.”

Yi Zheng understood what she meant.

She was telling him that this matter was not done by the people from the underworld, so there was no need to go through so much trouble.

“Then you should go to my place. 1 happen to have a house nearby that I can lend you.” When he spoke, his gaze would always land on Lin Si.

For some reason, he kept feeling an inexplicable sense of danger even though this young man was just a newbie to him .

It was as if this young man really had the ability to snatch her away from him.

Lin Si looked into his eyes without backing down. He reached out provocatively to brush away the snow falling on Shi Man’s shoulder and reminded him meaningfully, “I’m afraid it’s not good for CEO Yi to interfere in this matter. Let our boss handle it personally.”

Yi Zheng’s eyebrows suddenly tightened. His poisonous eyes stared fixedly at the finger that he had touched Shi Man just now. He clenched his fists by his side and said, “It’s not your place to speak. Get lost.”

Lin Si spread his hands innocently and complained with an aggrieved expression, “I’m reminding you out of kindness, CEO Yi. You’d better not interfere in this matter. Otherwise, you won’t be able to answer to your family in the end.”

Shi Man glanced at him meaningfully and met his half-smile. She immediately turned to look at Yi Zheng. “Go back first. I’ll contact you after I’m done interrogating these people.”

“You’re kicking me out.”

Yi Zheng’s expression darkened as he stared at Lin Si with his malicious eyes. He suddenly reached out and pulled Shi Man into his arms. In front of him, he gently kissed Shi Man’s cold cheek. “Take this as your compensation to me. I’ll see you later.”

Lin Si’s expression did not change. His smiling eyes slowly moved from his lips to Shi Man’s face, and his smile became deeper. “Boss, let’s go in quickly. I believe the answers these people brought are enough to surprise you.”

Shi Man felt that the place where Yi Zheng had kissed her was still hot. She didn’t want anyone to notice her blush, so she nodded and turned to leave.

Sean hurriedly pulled the person out of the van with a few bodyguards and sent him into the President’s office.

Meng Hui guarded the door nervously, not letting anyone approach.

As soon as Shi Man entered, her expression changed. She casually picked up the silver dagger on the table and stabbed the person’s arm.

Screams and the sound of muscles being pierced sounded in the office at the same time.

Outside the door, Meng Hui shivered and subconsciously took a few steps out before barely recovering from the chill.

Shi Man looked at his pained expression in satisfaction. She pulled out the dagger mercilessly and aimed it at the next person.

The others were so frightened that they could not stand steadily. They hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. “Missy, please show mercy. We were instructed by someone. We really didn’t want to harm your mother on purpose!”

“Is that so?” Shi Man smiled fakely, her eyes becoming colder. “Then tell me who instructed you, when, and what your goal is. Tell me clearly one by one. 1’11 cripple whoever doesn’t make it clear enough.”

With the person beside them who had fainted from the pain as an example, the others did not dare to hide anything anymore. They hurriedly fought to explain, afraid that they would be punished if they said anything late.

“Missy, it’s the Yi family. The Yi family found us yesterday and gave us a sum of money to cause trouble when the Shi family distributed supplies.”

“That’s right. They also said that the more trouble we cause, the better. As long as the trouble is big enough, they won’t treat us badly.”

“Him?” Shi Man raised the knife unhappily.

That person immediately understood and hurriedly dodged back. He blurted out, “It’s the President of the Yi Corporation. He gave us 500,000 dollars and said that he would give us another 500,000 dollars after the matter is done.” “Oh?” Shi Man narrowed her eyes slightly and said expressionlessly, “How can I believe that you’re not framing him?”

“Recording!” The person hurriedly took out the recording pen from his companion’s pocket. When he saw the flashing red light on it, his heart skipped a beat..
