The banquet ended at around 11:00 PM. Wen Xinya said goodbye to Aunt Zhou then left.

Walking out of the hotel, the coldness sent a shiver down her spine. She pulled up her scarf and exhaled softly. Breathing in the chill air at night made her relaxed and comfortable.

It was almost 11:00 PM and nearly all the guests had left. There was only Wen Xinya standing by the gate along, waiting for driver Tao.

At this moment, a black MPV stopped in front of her. As the black window slowly rolled down, she saw that it was Ning Shuqian. “Xinya, your car hasn’t come yet? Get in, I can give you a ride home.”

Wen Xinya replied plainly, “Don’t worry, Aunt Ning. It’s out of your way.”

Ning Shuqian pretended to be concerned and said, “I can send you back to the Wen Family’s old mansion first then go back to my place. It’s so late in the night. It’s not safe for you to stand here alone.”

Wen Xinya smiled and shook her head. “I’ll take a taxi, then. It’s pretty convenient.”

She wouldn’t ride with Ning Shuqian. Even though she knew that Ning Shuqian would not be stupid and risk her life, Ning Shuqian was always cunning. It would be better to stay cautious.

There was nothing Ning Shuqian could do. “I’ll go, then.”

Wen Xinya nodded. Ning Shuqian’s car drove away, leaving pungent fumes behind.

Wen Xinya was certain that Ning Shuqian did that on purpose.

With these thoughts, she stamped her foot in anger.

A black customized limited edition Aston Martin stopped beside her. She remembered that this new model was launched recently and there were only a hundred cars worldwide. The sale was by invitation only. It was customized for those rich car-lovers.

The door opened and Si Yiyan came out of the car. He went to the other side and opened the door for Wen Xinya. “Get in the car! It’s cold outside, don’t fall ill.”

“Si Yiyan, why are you here?” Wen Xinya was shocked. Si Yiyan wore a black casual suit, looking relaxed. It was obvious that he was here just for her.

Si Yiyan came to her and smiled. “What? Are you surprised?”

Wen Xinya nodded and then shook her head. “I’m surprised, but your schedule is always mysterious. So it makes sense that you are here.”

Her reply made Si Yiyan laugh. “If I didn’t come, you would probably have to take a taxi home today.” He sized her up and said, “Are you sure that a pretty girl like you is safe to take a taxi?”

“My driver is on the way.” Wen Xinya frowned. She was afraid to take a taxi as she was kidnapped in a taxi before. Hence, she wouldn’t take a taxi if Tao could pick her up.

“Your driver Tao is in hospital, in a coma. He was plotted against by someone. You didn’t call and ask whether he was coming?” Si Yiyan took a step forward, acting more dominant.

“Tao is always dutiful, he never had me waiting. The banquet just ended, so I didn’t call… How is Tao? Nothing serious, right?” Wen Xinya gulped nervously. It was the first time Si Yiyan was being so tough. His aggressiveness made her anxious.

She realized that her back was already against the street lamp when she wanted to take another step back. There was no other way to go.

Si Yiyan replied softly, “He was just beaten by a stick. He’s in a coma, but it’s no big deal.”

Wen Xinya heaved a sigh of relief. Tao was beaten so that he couldn’t come to drive her home. There was only one person who could do such a thing. “It must be that b*tch Ning Shuqian.”

Si Yiyan nodded in agreement.

Thinking of Ning Shuqian just now, Wen Xinya gritted her teeth and said angrily, “Is Ning Shuqian insane? Does she really think I will wait here like an idiot if Tao can’t come to pick me up? There are taxis everywhere. I can just flag one down and go home.”

Si Yiyan became serious all of a sudden, like he was ready to attack. “I think she wants more than that.”

As soon as Si Yiyan finished his sentence, around five to six people walked out of the corner. They didn’t seem to be thugs from the streets. Instead, they looked like powerful gangsters.

Wen Xinya inhaled deeply and said, “This is what Ning Shuqian really wants.”

They dashed towards Wen Xinya and Si Yiyan without asking. Obviously, they were prepared.

Si Yiyan was serious. His lips were thin and sharp, his handsome face enveloped in coldness. He pulled Wen Xinya behind him and said, “Stay with me. Don’t move.”

A chill ran down Wen Xinya’s spine. Coldness seemed to have entered her flesh and blood through her skin, making her shiver involuntarily. She could only handle one or two of them even though she was confident of her strength and skills.

What would happen if… if Si Yiyan didn’t come to pick her up.

She didn’t dare to think further.

Ning Shuqian used this to deal with her.

“Si Yiyan, these people are not simple. They must be strong fighters, you need to be careful.” Wen Xinya was worried about him even though she knew Si Yiyan had no issue handling this situation.

Si Yiyan turned around and kissed her gently. “Don’t worry. They are nothing.” Si Yiyan said in a low voice.

At this dangerous moment, Wen Xinya was so nervous that she forgot about the kiss just now.

Si Yiyan kicked a man dashing towards them with a knife in hand, wrenched a man’s fist, tripped another and stepped on that guy’s ribs. The weird sound of bones snapping cut through the silence of the night.

In just one minute, the six people were already lying on the ground, moaning.

Si Yiyan didn’t let any of them get near Wen Xinya the whole time. She figured that if it wasn’t for her safety, Si Yiyan would be able to finish these guys in less than a minute.
