Yu Xiheng raised his eyebrows slightly and patted her back gently, his voice soft, âDonât be afraid.â
âIâm not afraid at all,â Si Fuqing clung to his shoulder. âBoss, you should hit him.â
Huo Yanxing paused for a moment and spoke casually, âThree years ago, I infiltrated an organization called Black Spider. That time, I almost died, but what I remember most is that a woman slept with me and then threw a stack of money at me before running away.â
Si Fuqing was stunned, â???â
Could he be talking about her third senior sister?!
Even if her third senior sister had face blindness, her body would still remember, right?
Could it be that this man was really uncapable in that regard?
Didnât even leave a trace of an impression on Yuejian?
Si Fuqing remained silent throughout the journey.
After getting off the plane, she made an excuse to go to the restroom, found a stall, and called Yuejian, âThird senior sister, did you secretly have a man and not acknowledge him?â
âWhat are you talking about?â Yuejian was rarely caught off guard, âI told you, Iâm still a virgin. Where would a man come from? Iâm the Witch of the Night; I donât need a man.â
Si Fuqing sighed, â⦠Now you agree with this childish title.â
She paused and then asked, âDid you participate in any major missions in the past few years?â
âLet me think.â Yuejian recalled, âIf you mean major missions, I did take down a criminal organization called Black Spider three years ago. There were many evolved beings, and even the Evolved Beings Alliance didnât intervene.â
âI had no choice. After discussing it with the second senior brother, I infiltrated the organization secretly. After six months, I succeeded and even fought with Zeroâs people.â
Si Fuqing squinted her eyes.
The timing and name matched.
But something was missing.
No matter how advanced her computer skills were, she couldnât find this out.
âLittle Nine, are you here to ask for information because you have a crush?â Yuejian raised an eyebrow, âAmong our nine single dogs, no one is above anybody else.â
Si Fuqing came back to her senses, âI have a crush on gold every day. Wouldnât I die if I didnât?â
Yuejian was speechless.
No fault in that logic.
Si Fuqing asked again, âThird senior sister, are you sure youâve never had a man?â
âAbsolutely not,â Yuejian yawned, âI canât remember faces.â
âGot it.â Si Fuqing knew Yuejian genuinely had no recollection, âAnyone who falls for you is truly unlucky.â
Although she didnât know Huo Yanxingâs current attitude towards Yuejian, she couldnât help but feel sympathy for him.
After ending the call, Si Fuqing returned.
Huo Yanxing had already left.
Yu Xiheng turned and said, âBe careful when you act alone with your assistant.â
He didnât yet know why T18âs people were lurking around her.
But if they posed any threat, he wouldnât show mercy.
Si Fuqing was startled, âDonât worry, Boss.â
He responded with a faint âhmm,â took her suitcase from her hand, and said, âIâm going.â
Si Fuqing followed behind with empty hands, feeling quite relaxed.
After walking for a while, she suddenly realized something.
Wait, wasnât she supposed to be the bodyguard?
Why did it seem reversed?

Soon, the two arrived at the Mo family residence.
Mo Yanwen personally came out to greet them. After walking through a long corridor, he said, âMiss Si can stay next to Mr. Yu. This is the rear of the Mechanism City. Without permission from me and the elders, even the main family members canât enter.â
âThank you, Mr. Mo,â Si Fuqing thanked him. âI can stay anywhere.â
âOver there is the hidden weapon room,â Mo Yanwen smiled. âMiss Si probably hasnât used the Dragon Sparrow Feathers yet. You can ask Mr. Yu to teach you.â
âI havenât used them yet,â Si Fuqing said, âIâm not very familiar with hidden weapons.â
The construction of the Dragon Sparrow Feathers was indeed intricate, and even she didnât dare to dismantle it easily.
âMr. Yu personally designed the Dragon Sparrow Feathers. If you have any questions, feel free to ask him,â Mo Yanwen nodded. âI will leave now. If you need anything, just have Xi Jiang inform me.â
After Mo Yanwen left, Si Fuqing sat opposite Yu Xiheng, âBoss, youâre so talented. Have you ever tried to solve the Mechanism City?â
âYes.â Yu Xiheng looked up and smiled slightly, âYou should know from history that Mo Yanfeng sacrificed himself to complete the final process. This Mechanism City contains his blood, flesh, and essence, making it a sentient entity. This is currently unsolvable.â
Therefore, he could enter the inner parts of the Mechanism City safely, but others couldnât.
There might be other ways, but he didnât get to see Mo Yanfeng for the last time.
Even if there were, they were lost.
Si Fuqing was silent, âPeople of that era were truly great.â
Born into the Mo family, Mo Yanfeng was a noble and could have lived a life of wealth and honor.
But he sacrificed everything to ensure the impregnable defense of Yongâan City for generations to come.
âThe truly remarkable figures are those who stand out in the present,â Yu Xiheng raised his eyebrows suddenly, âThe times are different, and the situations are different. Youâve done very well.â
Looking into his light amber eyes, Si Fuqingâs heart stirred slightly.
It felt as if something familiar was there.
âBoss, you should rest first,â she said, standing up. âIâll have to handle the movie script.â
Yu Xiheng replied, âAlright.â
After a while, the door was knocked on.
Yu Xiheng, as succinct as ever, said, âCome in.â
Xi Jiang came in cautiously and asked, âBrother Nine, if I fail the assessment, will you still want me?â
Yu Xiheng didnât look up and said calmly, âIf I donât want you, you probably have nowhere else to go.â
âThatâs good,â Xi Jiang sighed in relief and was very happy. âIâve been following you for eight years, and Iâve always relied on you. But Brother Nine, you should keep an eye on Miss Si. Too many people want to take her away.â
âSister Sang said many male celebrities in the entertainment industry want to pursue Miss Si. Brother Nine, those people have many tricks up their sleeves. If Miss Si gets taken away, youâll regret it.â
Yu Xiheng looked up, his voice calm and unreadable, âGet out.â
Xi Jiang paused.
For the sake of his safety, he decided to leave quickly.

In the afternoon, after discussing the movie with Qu Linyun, Si Fuqing toured the inner city of Mo City with Xi Jiang.
The entire Mo City belonged to the Mo family.
Among the three major families, the Mo family was the most active in the public eye.
âMiss Si, you can buy anything you like,â Xi Jiang said cheerfully. âBrother Nine allocated a lot of money.â
âItâs okay, Iâm just looking around,â Si Fuqing said. âWe should save money.â
âTan Xi Jiang!â
Xi Jiang shivered and turned around to see his father walking toward him angrily, âWhat are you doing?â
Xi Jiang responded quickly, âI took a job as Miss Siâs bodyguard. She pays me ten thousand a day.â
Little Bai glanced at him disdainfully.
If Si Fuqingâs fans heard this, they would know immediately that it was a lie..
âTen thousand?â His father laughed angrily. âDo you know that money is the least valuable thing in the Mo family? Can money elevate your status here?â
Si Fuqing squinted slightly.
She wasnât sure of Xi Jiangâs exact status in the Mo family.
But if he could deal directly with Mo Yanwen, it couldnât be low?
Xi Jiang explained, âDad, Iâm really on a mission. Iââ
âCome with me now,â Father Tan interrupted, âIâve finally got you a place in Miss Chuyiâs class. If you pass and gain her approval, your chances of staying in the Mo family will greatly increase.â
âDad, youâre being unreasonable,â Xi Jiang was starting to become impatient. âDad, enough. Who can get an account for âEternityâ? There are only a few slots each year. Stop dreaming.â
âMiss Chuyi has two slots. Even if you donât get one, itâs better than being a bodyguard for a female celebrity! Can she get you one?â His father was relentless. âStop talking and come with me.â
Si Fuqing paused and looked at Xi Jiang seriously, âI can. Do you want one?â
