Translator: _Min_
Seeing Hilton’s brows furrow in anger, about to erupt, the president timely chided, “Who is it? Don’t you know that this is not the time to come up? Quickly take them away, and don’t disturb Mr. Hilton.”
Manager Luo’s tone changed abruptly, “President, she… she…”
The girl removed her hat, revealing her visage.
Her skin was pale, and her long hair soft.
The light dyed her eyebrows and eyes a dark red, making her beauty somewhat breathtaking.
Her strong features were almost suffocating.
Si Fuqing offered a slight smile, her eyes wandering, “I heard you were looking for me, so I came up. If I’m not needed, then I’ll go back down.”
The room fell silent.
Besides Hilton, a few other tycoons were present.
Their gaze fixated on Si Fuqing, unmoving.
They had all seen photos of Si Fuqing.
But in person, she was even more beautiful than in her pictures, indescribable by words.
“Good, very nice.” Hilton’s frown smoothed into a smile, “There’s an old saying in the Great Xia Empire about knowing one’s situation being a merit. You’re quite perceptive.”
He wasn’t fond of forcing others, finding little interest in it.
A mutual agreement was preferable.
Si Fuqing’s glance swept across them, politely inquiring, “And you are?”
“This is Mr. Hilton,” Manager Luo regained his composure to introduce, “Mr. Hilton is from the Western Continent. Fuqing, you must seize this opportunity.”
After saying this, he cast a warning glance at her, meaning she shouldn’t try anything foolish, or it would end badly.
“Hmm.” Si Fuqing smiled, “I will certainly seize the opportunity.”
None considered how Si Fuqing came willingly, nor why things were proceeding so smoothly.
“I’ll not disturb your good fortune then,” the president bowed to Hilton, “The other, Jiang Changning, once arrived, will be immediately brought to you.” Hilton was satisfied, “Good, I’ve prepared everything you asked for.”
The president was overjoyed, “Thank you, Mr. Hilton!”
He waved, signaling Manager Luo to follow him out.
Hilton being the highest in status, the remaining bosses found excuses to leave.
“Leaving so soon?” Si Fuqing suddenly spoke, “Stay and play, it’s more fun with more people.”
At her words, everyone looked at her in astonishment.
Manager Luo was incredulous, “Si Fuqing, what are you saying!”
Hilton’s gaze shifted, “I didn’t expect, a young girl like you plays so boldly.”
“No, it’s a bit small here, not much fun.” Si Fuqing slowly stood up, “But warming up is still possible.”
Her foot landed on the coffee table.
“Bang!”
In an instant, the coffee table flipped in the air, crashing towards the door.
The tycoons couldn’t dodge in time, getting pinned underneath.
Though the president and Manager Luo were not hit, their legs gave out, collapsing to the floor.
The sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Hilton’s expression darkened, reacting swiftly, “Catch her!”
His guards, regaining their senses, immediately surrounded Si Fuqing.
Hilton sighed in relief.
His guards were evolved beings, not something ordinary people could handle.
Si Fuqing, no matter how capable, stood no chance against evolved beings.
But he wouldn’t let her die; incapacitation would suffice.
What misfortune.
He thought he had found someone compliant, only to meet a tough nut.
Hilton coldly addressed the president, “Nice work. Break the limbs of the other one before sending them over.”
The president breathed with difficulty, “Yes, yes, it will be done. Please leave this place.”
Hilton huffed and quickly left.
The president struggled to his feet, still shaken.
Fortunately, Hilton always took precautions, bringing evolved beings.
Evolved beings were not common knowledge.
The president learned of their existence only through multiple dealings with Hilton.
Possessing perfect evolutionary genes and abilities beyond ordinary humans, they were the dream of all mankind.
Wealth and power sought after even greater abilities.
Sadly, evolved beings were born, not made.
The president sneered, “Si Fuqing, don’t think just because you can fight, you can resist. Did you think we hadn’t anticipated this?”
Tianle Media had dominated the entertainment industry for so long, not easily shaken.
But they had overlooked Si Fuqing’s skills, now forced to appease Hilton’s anger by offering another countess.
“Presi-President, let’s leave,” Manager Luo, frightened, suggested, “Mr.
Hilton’s guards are sufficient here.” “Mhmm.” The president adjusted his attire, “Let’s go.”
Before taking a step, a scream echoed.
“Hmm, evolved beings.” Si Fuqing held one guard’s throat, her smile chilling, “Since when do a few Class C evolved beings from the Western Continent dare to act up in the Great Xia?”
“Boom!”
As if thunder struck nearby, the president’s mind went blank, “How… how do you…”
How did Si Fuqing know of evolved beings?
And so clearly about their ranks?
The guards’ expressions changed, terror striking them as their legs refused to move.
Unable to escape.
“Shang Lu, prepare to close the net.” Si Fuqing took out her phone, “Bring the people to me.”
After the call, Yu Xiheng’s call came through.
His voice, unusually heavy, asked, “Where are you?”
“Getting busy,” Si Fuqing’s tone was light, “If all goes well, I might treat you to supper.”
“Alright.” Yu Xiheng, influenced by her laughter, paused, then softly smiled,
The call ended, Feng San anxiously inquired, “Brother Nine, Si Miss hasn’t encountered Witch of the Night, right?”
“Not for now,” Yu Xiheng responded, his gaze profound, “But no guarantees.”
T18’s members were known for their unpredictability, and Witch of the Night was an enigma.
He couldn’t predict what might happen if Witch of the Night and Si Fuqing met.
Feng San puzzled, “Brother Nine, why would Witch of the Night come? Even if
T18 was infiltrated, she shouldn’t need to intervene, right?”
Witch of the Night, a Class A evolved being, stood at the pinnacle within the Evolved Being Alliance.
Was T18 squandering such a resource? Yu Xiheng glanced at him coolly, “Do you only ask questions?”
Feng San immediately fell silent.
“Intercept those contraband.” Yu Xiheng stood, his tone cold, “I’ll go myself.” Feng San, Xi Jiang, and Chen Ying joined forces with Zero’s investigator. Xi Jiang scratched his head, “Brother Nine knows Witch of the Night?” “We met two years ago,” Feng San affirmed, “But no conflict.”
“I see, hey, I heard Witch of the Night is very beautiful, ” Xi Jiang suddenly mentioned, “So, was she supposed to marry Brother Nine?”
“Not exactly, I asked,” Feng San’s temple twitched, “It was someone from the action team. ”
“Oh,” Xi Jiang didn’t see much difference, “Anyway, they’re both violent.”
Feng San: ‘
In a way, that wasn’t incorrect.
Minutes later, Hilton returned to the private room.
He was thrown to the ground by Shang Lu.
Being ordinary, Hilton couldn’t resist.
Seeing his guards on the floor, his mind seethed with anger.
Shang Lu approached, respectfully stating, “Miss Si, the person has been captured, the auction’s backstage is under our control, and the abducted boys and girls have been moved to a safe location, with no injuries.”
“Good, our operation was successful,” Si Fuqing nodded, “Did you encounter anyone else?”
“Anyone else?” Shang Lu pondered, “We did run into a countess who accidentally entered the basement, but she left quickly.”
Si Fuqing nodded, “Good that she left.”
She had overheard Hilton’s intentions towards the countess.
Si Fuqing turned, her gaze falling back on Hilton.
She slowly approached.
Hilton retreated continuously.
Trembling all over, teeth chattering, yet he blustered: “What do you want? I warn you, I have more than these guards. I know other evolved beings! Do you know the Evolved Being Alliance?! ”
“Even your Great Xia’s Supernatural Management Bureau can’t compare!”
“Whom are you looking for? Or who is above you?” Si Fuqing, holding his throat and stepping on his leg, smiled, “Chris or Odile?”
Chris, the junior leader of the Evolved Being Alliance.
Ogygia, a super Class A evolved being of the Evolved Being Alliance..
