Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Chapter 1699 - The Date of Return


Chapter 1699: The Date of Return

Wen Xinya dragged her tired body back to the Wen Family house.

After Si Yiyan left, she spent most of her time staying at the Wen Family’s.

The first thing she did was to turn on her mobile phone and call Si Yiyan’s number. The expected cold and passive voice of the answering service echoed in her ears.

Wen Xinya gently fingered the peace charm on her neck. A rather undragon-like dragon circled around the pale gray cloth. If not for the majestic-looking gold and black coloring, it would indeed look a bit like an earthworm who sprouted two horns and four legs.

“I have completed the peace charm. When are you coming back?”

The peace charm had already been completed but Si Yiyan was not back yet.

Wen Xinya considered for a long time before taking out her phone to call Gu Yuexi to ask about Si Yiyan again. But recalling that judgmental look Gu Yuexi had given her, she changed her mind and called Xu Xianghu instead.

Lucifer had participated in Iraq’s civil war, and as a key agent of Lucifer, he would naturally know of the latest situation.

Xu Xianghu picked up her call very quickly. “Sis-in-law, why are you calling me? Have I become more charming lately? Damn, no wonder I felt that I have grown more handsome when I looked in the mirror this morning.”

Xu Xianghu was very excited about receiving a call from sis-in-law.

He was just thinking about how to suck up to sis-in-law when she had presented herself to him right that instant.

It was a foolish notion to not try and cozy up to someone powerful.

“Does your boss know you are such a silly little joker?” Wen Xinya subconsciously relaxed a little on hearing Xu Xianghu’s gleeful teasing.

Since Xu Xianghu was behaving so nonchalantly, Lucifer’s interference with Iraq’s civil war was probably not as severe as she imagined it to be.

Anyone with the slightest sense would know not to stand beside a collapsing wall.

Even someone like Xu Xianghu understood that concept. So, Si Yiyan, with his astute mind and meticulous methods, would undoubtedly know how to keep himself safe.

At the mention of his boss, Xu Xianghu crowed. “Boss is not here. No one can control me!”

There was no one in the world that Xu Xianghu was afraid of, except his boss and that perverse Gu Yuexi.

“I heard Gu Yuexi say that you and your boss are all in Iraq. How are things there? Now that Lucifer has interfered with Iraq’s civil war, will there be a big impact on Lucifer?”

Lucifer’s interference with Iraq’s civil war was a taboo topic for Gu Yuexi, there was no way he would share any information with her. As a result, she was trying her luck with Xu Xianghu.

Wen Xinya guessed that Xu Xianghu must be there holding the fort after Lucifer interfered with Iraq’s civil war.

Xu Xianghu was the most trigger-happy, aggressive and thuggish guy in Lucifer. Those who held Si Yiyan with utmost reverence held the same level of deep fear toward Xu Xianghu.

Only Xu Xianghu would be able to ensure Lucifer stayed safe within Iraq’s civil war.

She had been ill-at-ease the entire time as she had not been able to contact Si Yiyan, and had no way of knowing what was happening.

“With Lucifer as my mighty weapon, I will be the one to take charge of this hell on earth. These were Boss’ actual words. Haha… sis-in-law, don’t worry. When our boss decides to get serious, the land would be strewn with corpses and the rivers flow with blood!”

The first time Boss had gotten serious, he completely cleared Korean-Chinese Alliance’s influence from Italy.

He was unwilling to share the same sky with those who had murdered his parents.

When one committed a sin, his entire clan would be eradicated.

He would rather take a hundred lives than risk letting a single enemy escape.

During that period, the Xiasi Group had attacked relentlessly.

His merciless methods had shaken the Korean-Chinese Alliance to its core. Since then, the alliance never managed to step into Italy again.

However, there was no way he could tell sis-in-law this.

To a woman, a man’s cruel ways was not a thing of glory.

Although Xu Xianghu was very open toward those whom he was close with, he still knew what to say and what to keep silent on. This matter was not for him to disclose to sis-in-law. If she wanted to know, Boss should be the one to tell her.

Wen Xinya was stunned!

With Lucifer as my mighty weapon, I will be the one to take charge of this hell on earth!

Such arrogance.

But it was also the truth.

Si Yiyan might not have the power to go head-on against an entire country, but he was capable of managing a situation through various other means.

A skilled strategist might work alone, but could be more powerful than a 10-million-strong army. Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Gongsun Yan, Sun Bin, Pang Juan—all of them were famous military strategists in the history of Country Z. Which of them were not formidable characters?

She finally stopped worrying.

Wen Xinya hurried asked again, “Then, is your boss still alright? Why am I able to contact you but not him?”

She was still most concerned about Si Yiyan.

Although she knew that he would be fine in Iraq, she just couldn’t help worrying.

To her, Si Yiyan was not the great leader of Lucifer but her man. He didn’t possess three heads and six limbs, he didn’t have a bronze torso and iron arms, and he didn’t have the ability to fly. He was just a man made of flesh and blood. A man who could get injured, who could bleed, who could feel pain.

Xu Xianghu was puzzled. “Hasn’t boss returned to Country Z?”

Wen Xinya’s heart jumped for joy. She hurriedly asked, “When did he come back? When was that?”

Could he be on his way?

As expected, Si Yiyan was not lying to her. He would return on the day the peace charm was completed.

“He already handed everything over to me three days ago and left on his private jet. He should have arrived at Capital city by now?”

Xu Xianghu thought the boss had already returned to Capital city.

“Did you recall wrongly? Are you sure it was three days ago?” Wen Xinya’s heart plummeted.

Si Yiyan flew by private jet from Iraq to Capital city. It would have taken about nine hours. It was impossible that he had not yet arrived.

“How could I remember such a thing wrongly! That’s strange… you and boss have been apart for so long, by right he should have immediately flown straight back into your arms. Why isn’t he back yet?”

Xu Xianghu knew just how much his boss missed sis-in-law.

During this trip to the Middle East, his boss had splurged huge sums of money to buy countless gifts for sis-in-law.

Once, Xu Xianghu noticed that his boss was scrolling through pictures of sis-in-law on his mobile phone. Si Siyan was so engrossed that he didn’t even realize Xu Xianghu had approached him.

Xu Xianghu’s words made Wen Xinya worried again. She asked anxiously, “Could something have happened to him?”

Wen Xinya was panicking.

He left Iraq three days ago but had not yet arrived at Capital city. No one knew where he was and he was completely uncontactable. It was as if he had disappeared from the face of this earth.

Wen Xinya had never felt so fearful and panicky in her life.

“How is that possible? Our boss has gone through so many trials and tribulations and emerged from all of them unscathed. Sis-in-law, don’t worry. Perhaps he was delayed by some other matter…”

As Xu Xianghu tried to comfort her, Wen Xinya’s heart went numb with worry.
