âJust come with me, there's nothing inappropriate about this!â
Fang Yi hauled Chen Hao out of his room.
Chen Hao was curious as to why Fang Yi was looking for him.
After entering the room, Fang Yi made a hand gesture signaling Chen Hao to keep quiet.
âFang Yi, are you back?â
At that moment, Fang Jiannanâs voice came from the bathroom.
Shortly after, Fang Jiannan pushed open the door and stepped out of the bathroom.
Chen Hao was stunned the next second.
Fang Jiannan with her black and silky long hair came into sight. At that moment, she was wearing only the upper part of her sleepwear.
Her tone and fair legs were exposed.
Obviously, she had just finished taking a bath. She was talking to Fang Yi while drying her hair with a towel.
âAh!â
She caught sight of Chen Hao who was standing inside her room, his eyes fixated on her.
Fang Jiannanâs face blushed at once. Anxiously, she returned to the bathroom to hide herself.
Indeed, Fang Jiannan had never appeared this way in front of a guy before.
In fact, she had always deemed relationships and romance to be unrealistic.
This was due to the fact that she seldom interacted with boys.
At that moment, she was hiding despondently inside the bathroom as her heart pounded furiously.
âFang Yi, why did you bring him into my room?!â
Fang Jiannanâs embarrassed and furious voice echoed in the bathroom.
âHahaha! Of course I have to do that. Otherwise, it was impossible to ask any favor from him!â
Although the plan did not turn out exactly as she had anticipated, the outcome was quite satisfactory.
According to Fang Yiâs plan, Chen Hao was supposed to catch Fang Jiannan while she was showering.
It was not unknown to Fang Jiannan that Fang Yi had always been a reckless one. However, she did not expect Fang Yi would pull such a prank.
âOkay, I'll stop fooling around. Chen Hao, I invited you here because we need a favor from you. Out of all the students from our two classes, you are the only one who would be capable enough to help us!â
said Fang Yi.
At that moment, Fang Jiannan walked out of the bathroom after putting on a long nightgown.
She shot a vicious stare at Fang Yi before glancing over at Chen Hao begrudgingly.
Chen Hao looked somewhat awkward too.
Rubbing at his nose, he asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
âActually, itâs nothing much. We would like you to help us look for something! This shouldnât be an arduous task for you. Besides, I know what youâve seen just now. Could you even face Jiannan in the future if you refuse to help us when you are able to do it?â said Fang Yi.
âFang Yi, what nonsense are you talking about?â Fang Jiannan spoke with some resignation.
Chen Hao let out a bitter laugh.
In fact, Chen Hao had intended to help the two girls.
This presented the best opportunity for him to get closer to them. Besides, it was very likely that Fang Mengxinâs servant was with them.
Chen Hao had earnestly wished for such an opportunity.
Thus, he asked, âOut with it then, what is the thing that I'm supposed to look for?â
âWell, I remember that our classmates will be coming here for a trip tomorrow. How about you bring some of your friends along and we would all head to the place? Itâs that simple! Of course, you would be the one leading the search,â Fang Yi explained.
Chen Hao was quiet for a moment as he thought that it was unlikely that he would be able to glean any information from them for the time being.
He decided to take on the mission first.
Thereafter, he nodded his head before saying, âOkay!â
After Chen Hao left the room, Fang Jiannan grabbed and twisted Fang Yiâs ears in a swift motion before exclaiming, âYou damn girl, you are outright infuriating! Damn it! Luckily I stepped out of the bathroom with a top on. Otherwise, you would suffer a bitter end!â
At the thought of what happened earlier, Fang Jiannan was overwhelmed with terror. At that moment, she hated Fang Yi to the core.
âOkay, Iâm really sorry. But then, didnât you see that Iâve also managed to settle things? My guess was spot-on. Chen Hao does have a crush on you. Probably you didnât realize it, but his eyes almost popped out while he was looking at you just now!
âStop talking already. I think I will have to beat you up!â
Meanwhile, somewhere inside a manor.
Four to five luxurious cars drove into the compound of the manor.
The passengers in the car alighted and made their way toward the villa.
âYoung Master Yang, everyone has arrived!â
A man who looked like the butler brought the group into the villa.
âGood day to you, Young Master Yang. May we know the reason why all of us are summoned here today by Young Master Long?â
It was a foreigner who spoke. There was an eeriness in his eyes and his face was expressionless and cold.
âHehe, of course. I suppose Shaoyun had told all of you that you all would need to take action according to my instructions from now on. Iâll just get to the point. All of you are summoned here this time to help me with a kidnapping act!â
Young Master Yang was none other than Situ Yang.
At that moment, he was talking with a tone tinged with fury and his face was filled with resentment.
The butler then handed a photo to the leader of the group of men.
âItâs only a girl, Young Master Yang. Is it really necessary to deploy our forces just to get hold of her?â
The young leader put aside the photo indifferently.
âYou shouldnât be too reckless. Even more than ten strong guys couldnât get near her!â
Situ Yang continued, âMoreover, to be safe, you guys have to utilize a smarter way to get hold of her.
Of course, all of you are only assigned to bring her to the designated place. I will be in charge of the rest.â
The assassins exchanged glances among themselves before nodding their heads.
âUncle Fu, please arrange their accommodation.â
âYes, Young Master Yang!â
After the group of assassins left, an old man with half of his face in white and the other in black walked out of a hidden corner of the room with his arms crossed in front of his chest.
âUncle Jiu, would it be a redundant move to gather all these men here with such great effort? Although Fang Jiannan is indeed skilled, I believe I can handle her easily!â Situ Yang said as he was getting miffed.
âOf course itâs not hard to deal with Fang Jiannan alone. However, the Situ Family would be put at a disadvantaged situation if our deeds were found out by the Fang Family. Therefore, the perfect solution is to do it through the help of others,â the old man said.
âFair enough. It is puzzling as to what the Fang Family is up to now. Fang Jiannan had always been confined in her home back then. Now, sheâs even roaming free all the way in Hong County. According to my staff, they are looking for something here, though it is unknown exactly what they are trying to look for. My father had assigned us to do a thorough investigation on her. Hehe, Fang Jiannan, youâve always looked down on me, so please donât blame me for being ruthless. This time, I will surely make you mine!â said Situ Yang.
At the thought of being slapped by Fang Jiannan in front of everyone else the other day, Situ Yang was overwhelmed by humiliation once again.
With Fang Jiannan under his captivity, it would bring a mess to the Fang Family. Apart from that, Situ Yang believed that he could even get some clues from either the insiders of the Fang Family or that impulsive girl, Fang Yi.
It was indeed killing two birds with one stone.
Uncle Jiu was right too. With Long Shaoyun from Yan Jing helping him, he could be the secret mastermind and would be able to make changes to his plan according to the situation.
In fact, Long Shaoyun and Situ Yang were old buddies.
The both of them were famous for being rich in the area they resided in. It went without saying that they interacted with each other quite frequently. This was not their first time getting involved in such shady matters.
At the moment, a luxurious car pulled up by the entrance of the manor.
Situ Yang looked out of the manor and put on a subtle grin before announcing, âLong Shaoyun is here!â
âBrother Yang, it has been a long time. How have you been doing?â
Soon, Long Shaoyun was walking toward the inside of the villa with both of his hands tucked into the pockets of his trousers.
