Chapter 1949

After such a tormenting morning, there was no fatigue on Wen Xinya’s face—instead, it was filled with the joy of the pregnancy stabilizing. Si Yiyan also took time off his work and stayed in the hospital to accompany her.

Si Yiyan hugged Wen Xinya as they chatted endlessly.

“This morning, Xu Xianghu found Wei Che’s body in a villa in the suburbs. He was poisoned, which caused his whole body to turn numb, and died from a gunshot to his forehead. The time of death was around 11 P.M.”

When he received Xu Xianghu’s call at 5 A.M., Xinya was still sleeping. Thus, he didn’t wake her up and secretly rushed to the scene and personally saw Wei Che’s corpse.

At that time, his heart was filled with complex emotions.

Between him and Wei Che was his parents’ irreconcilable vengeance.

Lucifer and the Korean-Chinese Alliance were mutually antagonistic.

And between Xinya and Wei Che was a hatred that spanned two generations.

He had originally wanted to personally kill Wei Che to settle all the grudges between them. However, unexpectedly, Wei Che actually died in such a humiliating and sarcastic manner—the biggest joke was that he was actually killed by his own gun.

Gu Yuexi, Gu Yuehan, and the rest who followed him were all in slight disbelief.

Yueze, who had always been fond of conspiracy theories, even suspected that Wei Che’s death was fake and there had to be some scheme behind it. However, it was eventually confirmed that the identity of the victim was Wei Che without a doubt.

Wen Xinya suddenly widened her eyes in slight disbelief. “Previously, he could escape under your gunpoint, as well as Lucifer’s pursuit time and again, and even the radar of the army. How did he just die so easily—who exactly killed him?”

She had heard from Little Hu that Wei Che’s capability didn’t pale in comparison to Si Yiyan.

Previously, Si Yiyan only managed to injure Wei Che badly with Yueze and Xu Xianghu’s cover.

The fact that Wei Che could escape Lucifer and the army’s inescapable dragnet for such a long time already proved his capability. A person like this shouldn’t just die quietly like that.

She had always thought that the only person who could kill Wei Che was Si Yiyan and had to be Si Yiyan.

Only in this way could Si Yiyan resolve the secret knot buried deep within his heart.

Unexpectedly, the current situation differed from her imagination.

“We’ve confirmed that the villa belongs to Xia Ruya. After Wei Che escaped to China, as he was heavily injured and was the subject of the army and Lucifer’s dragnet, he had no choice but to turn to her. According to the gathering of evidence at the scene, before Wei Che died, there were no signs that a third party had been there. Thus, at the moment, we can be sure that the person who killed Wei Che is precisely Xia Ruya.”

As the villa was hidden in a secluded area and was under the name of an American, it had stayed out of the radar. In the process of tracking Xia Ruya, Yueze realized that she had acted abnormally, only then did he find that villa—but it was already too late.

Xia Ruya managed to single-handedly poison Wei Che when he was heavily injured and then kill him mercilessly—the ruthlessness and viciousness of it all made even Si Yiyan slightly shocked.

He had observed Xinya and Xia Ruya’s battles for more than ten years and had never belittled Xia Ruya’s cunningness. She was scheming, arrogant, and couldn’t bear being outdone.

Wei Che’s manipulation and threat should be the root of Xia Ruya’s betrayal.

And Wei Che must have died in Xia Ruya’s hands partly because he was heavily injured, which affected his capability.

Additionally, he was probably too full of himself and belittled her.

More importantly, he had never expected that the Xia Ruya, that had always been under his manipulation, actually dared to kill him.

Wen Xinya gasped. “It’s actually Xia Ruya. I thought I understood her, but I still underestimated her.” After getting over the shock, she gradually calmed her overwhelming emotions down and asked, “Then where is Xia Ruya currently?”

Indeed, Wen Xinya had really never expected Wei Che to die in Xia Ruya’s hands.

This made her reevaluate Xia Ruya as a person.

Many people died in Xia Ruya’s hands. However, upon closer thought, none of them had been personally killed by her.

Now that Xia Ruya had personally killed Wei Che, the minimum morals of a human had entirely vanished in her—she was simply evil.

“We’ve already confirmed that there was an illegal departure by sea from Jin City and we will soon find out its route.”

Actually, he could already roughly guess the route that Xia Ruya thought was the safest. However, he didn’t intend to nab her, because even if Xia Ruya escaped, she would never make it out of his hands.

In the previous lifetime, Xia Ruya and the likes had controlled Xinya’s life and single-handedly directed her tragedy.

In this lifetime, he also wanted to let Xia Ruya have a taste of her life being controlled and give her a terrible death.

Only then was Wen Xinya relieved. She held his hands and said, “You’ve gotta nab her. For a person like Xia Ruya, once we give her the slightest chance, she’ll make a comeback sooner or later.”

She had never thought of sparing Xia Ruya’s life.

Xia Ruya had done so much evil, she ought to pay with her life and go to hell to repent to those people that died because of her.

It was pointless to make her suffer a life worse than death—she had never believed in this.

Having been through death once, she knew better than anyone that death meant the end and just how scary that feeling was. Thus, regardless of how one continued to live, staying alive was the most fortunate thing in the world.

There was an ancient saying that even ants struggled to survive—what more humans?

She firmly believed that only death was the biggest punishment for Xia Ruya.

Si Yiyan fed Wen Xinya some dried slices of bamboo shoots. “I’ll take care of this and guarantee that you’ll be satisfied. I’m only telling you so that you’ll be assured and not spend your energy thinking of such matters.”

As they chatted, he fed her all sorts of snacks and fruits—unknowingly, she had already eaten quite a bit. After the pregnancy stabilized, although she had morning sickness, as long as the food prepared matched her palate, she had instead eaten more than before.

Wen Xinya acknowledged with a grunt and didn’t have any objections.

Huddled in Si Yiyan’s arms, she finally felt tired. However, thinking of Wei Che’s death, she still couldn’t help but lament. “Unexpectedly, Wei Che thrived for half of his life but eventually died in Xia Ruya’s hands.”

Actually, it was easily imaginable.

Previously, Wei Che had plotted for the death of Si Yiyan’s mother and then personally got rid of the head of Lucifer then, Si Yiyan’s father, and almost caused the downfall of Xiasi Group and Lucifer—with such capabilities, he must have held a high position in the Korean-Chinese Alliance.

However, who could have imagined that such a person would eventually die in the hands of a feeble woman?

However, she then thought about Xia Ruya’s methods and felt that everything made sense.
