After a brief moment of shock, the reporters erupted into a clamor.
They never expected Ye Wanwan to mention such a name!
That name was known to them all, like a thunderbolt to the ears!
Gong Xu stood there dumbfounded, thinking he misheard. “Si… Si Yehan… isn’t he… isn’t he Si Jiu?”
Fei Yang exclaimed, “My goodness!”
Unexpectedly, the biggest gossip of the year didn’t involve any celebrities, but a single sentence from Ye Bai.
Even Luo Chen, who wasn’t interested in gossip or news, knew Si Yehan’s name. Despite never appearing in any media or public events, he was still widely known.
Han Xianyu was first shocked, then lowered his gaze in thought. It seemed he finally understood something…
No wonder… he always felt that with that man’s aura, his identity was not simple…
Perhaps Ye Bai had given him too many surprises, so while this news was shocking, after some contemplation, it seemed reasonable.
Moreover, Ye Bai was different now. She had the status and identity of the boss of Starlight Group, which was just as prominent in China as the Si family.
On the other hand, Gu Yueze was too conceited, like a toad trying to eat swan meat, but not realizing how laughable he was.
Fu Mingxi’s face showed a sense of crisis for the first time. He knew, he knew!!!
The man the leader was interested in, how could he be so simple!
They always did challenging things. That was their leader’s nature!
What should they do now?
No… calm down! Calm down! Si Yehan was a citizen of China!
The people of Independent State were absolutely forbidden from marrying outsiders. So the leader could only play with him in China, but couldn’t give him any formal status! That’s right!
Beidou suddenly realized, “No wonder Sister Feng asked us to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the head of the Si family after returning to China! I didn’t expect she had an affair with him!”
Qixing frowned slightly, sighing helplessly. As they say, a strong dragon can’t suppress a local snake. The Si family had immense power in China. Si Yehan, as the head of the family, was not someone to be trifled with.
He was really afraid that the leader would cause some trouble again, such as forcibly making him her boyfriend…
If Ye Wanwan knew what Qixing was thinking right now, she would definitely spray him in the face. Wasn’t she the one who was forced into this situation?
Of course, she would never reveal this dark history…
At the same time…
In a secluded mansion in the capital.
Lin Que finally regained his true appearance and was happily scrolling through gossip news on his laptop.
The man was resting on the sofa in front of the fireplace, leaning his forehead on his hand while holding a book. But his attention was clearly not on the book.
Lin Que commented while scrolling, “Tsk tsk tsk, Brother Nine, look at your woman. As soon as she returned to China, she hasn’t had a single peaceful day and is always causing trouble…”
“Tsk tsk tsk, isn’t this Fu Mingxi the grandson of the second elder of the Fearless Alliance?”
In the meantime,
Inside a secluded mansion in the imperial city,
Lin Que had finally regained his true appearance and was happily browsing through gossip news on his laptop.
On the couch in front of the fireplace, the man rested his head on one hand while holding a book in the other, but his attention was clearly not on the pages.
Lin Que continued to comment as he read, “Tsk tsk tsk, Jiu Ge, look at your woman, she hasn’t been peaceful since she returned to China, always causing trouble…”
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, “What kind of trouble?”
Lin Que turned the laptop screen to face him and said, “Look at this, the biggest gossip of the year is not about any celebrity, but about your little sister dropping the name of a certain someone.”
The man took a glance at the screen, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, “I see, so she’s made a move on him.”
Lin Que was taken aback, “You already knew?”
The man nodded, “I’ve always known.”
Lin Que couldn’t help but ask, “Who is he? Is he important?”
The man’s eyes flickered, “He’s not unimportant, but he’s not someone who can affect me.”
Lin Que couldn’t quite understand, but he didn’t dare to ask more, he changed the topic, “By the way, Jiu Ge, do you know who this Fu Mingxi is?”
The man thought for a moment, “The second elder’s grandson of the Fearless Alliance?”
Lin Que nodded, “Yes, that’s him. According to the news, he seems to be afraid of you.”
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, “Afraid of me? Why?”
Lin Que shrugged, “I don’t know, but he seems to have realized that you are the man the boss is interested in.”
The man chuckled, “Interesting, let’s see how he handles it.”
Lin Que felt a chill run down his spine, he knew that when the man said “let’s see how he handles it”, it usually meant that someone was going to suffer.
The man noticed Lin Que’s expression and patted him on the shoulder, “Don’t worry, it’s not your turn to worry about such things.”
Lin Que smiled wryly, “I know, I know, I’m just a little scared.”
The man’s gaze turned gentle, “Don’t be scared, I’m here.”
Lin Que looked at him gratefully, feeling warm inside.
Although he had only been with the man for a short time, he had never felt so secure before.
He knew that no matter what happened in the future, as long as he was with this man, he would have nothing to fear.
The man closed his book and stood up, “Let’s go, it’s time to eat.”
Lin Que packed up his laptop and followed him out of the room, feeling contented and happy.
Little did he know that the man he had just praised was the most dangerous man in the entire continent, and that his peaceful life was about to be shattered by the turbulence to come.
