Chapter 734

The Xia Family was issued a fine of 500,000 yuan for prolonging the sales of the prohibited items despite the initial fine and warning issued by the Administrative Bureau of Business and Commerce. They were also forced to cease operations temporarily.

More and more people began to get displeased with the Xia Family and demanded for refunds and compensations. The Xia Family had been struggling for the past two days.

Wen Xinya smirked and sent an email to Tian Chao Private Investigation Agency.

Si Yiyan asked calmly, “What’s the matter? Have you set your sights on the piece of land that the Xia Family was originally supposed to use for the new mall?”

That plot of land was indeed situated on a prime location, and now that Wen Xinya was wealthy and capable, it was only understandable that she would set her sights on that piece of land. Throughout the past three years, she seemed to have a penchant for buying real estate properties and would spend her spare cash on land.

He could not help but be in awe of her superb taste. China’s economy had been rising in recent years and real estate had a major part to play in boosting the nation’s economy. She would definitely generate immeasurable wealth by stocking up on land now.

Wen Xinya giggled and said, “I can never escape your eyes.”

She had indeed set her sights on the Xia Family’s plot of land. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone through such painstaking means to plot against the Xia Family in a bid to buy their land.

Si Yiyan picked her up in his arms and placed her on his lap. Kissing her earlobes affectionately, he said, “You’ve been keeping close tabs on the Xia Family lately and you often meet up with Yan Shaoqing. The Xia Family’s mediocre wealth definitely wouldn’t catch your attention. I can’t think of another reason for your interest in them, apart from that plot of land that you’re eying.”

Wen Xinya snuggled up in his embrace and took a whiff of his heavenly and unique scent. “I got Yan Shaoqing to help me purchase some land in the West region that’s close to the plot of land that the Xia Family owns. If I can acquire that plot of land, I’ll be in charge of developing the most resplendent business district in the city.”

It would be her first step to building her corporate empire.

Si Yiyan had long known about her ambitions and was well aware that she wanted to make tremendous progress in the business world. Investing in real estate properties was the quickest and most effective method. “I’m sure you have greater plans in mind too, don’t you?”

Wen Xinya’s smile faded and she said coldly, “Even if the Xia Family has already cut off ties with Xia Ruya, I’ve never planned to let the Xia Family off. They particularly enjoy reaping benefits and maximizing profits. They’re mercenary and ruthless. Who knows when they might collude to plot against us again? I’m no saint. I must eradicate all of Xia Ruya’s hopes, step by step. I must make the Xia Family a weapon of mine that I can use against her.”

Si Yiyan had long guessed that that would be her reason. Hence, he was not surprised at all. “You’re taking the chance to plot against the Xia Family and make them incur a major loss. In order to save their family’s business, the Xia Family will definitely sell that plot of land. It’s only a matter of time. Once the Xia Family sells their land, they’ll lose their greatest trump card for transitioning and will never be able to make a comeback. Now that they’ve lost the trust of their consumers, transitioning into a new mall is just a far-fetched idea.”

Wen Xinya smiled and said, “Yes, that’s my plan.”

Si Yiyan almost applauded for her. “What a smart move. Killing three birds with one stone.”

Wen Xinya began to get a little smug after receiving the compliment.

Si Yiyan said, “I heard that there are plenty of people who are also eying that plot of land. How are you so sure that you won’t let your efforts go in vain?”

Wen Xinya smiled mysteriously and said, “I have my own plans.”

Since she had already devised a plan, she was determined to succeed. She was no saint and had no intention to pave the way for others.

Si Yiyan chuckled and exclaimed, “Seems like you’re confident!”

Seeing how much faith he had in her, Wen Xinya kissed him in reward. “Of course! I don’t ever do things that I’m not certain about. Besides…”

Her beautiful and rosy lips caught his attention. Perhaps because of the fruit that she had just eaten, the moisture on her lips made her look sexy and seductive like petals. He could not hold himself back and raised her chin to kiss her.

Wen Xinya was interrupted in her speech by his passionate kiss.

Si Yiyan pulled away reluctantly and said, “As I said, I prefer kisses to pecks!”

Wen Xinya’s lips looked even more tender. “So irritating. You’ve obviously taken advantage of me!”

“I know I’m annoying. How many times do you have to repeat yourself?”

Wen Xinya turned red. Just as she was about to retort, he shoved a strawberry into her mouth.

The fresh and red strawberry tasted delicious and sweet, making her lips look rosy and sultry.

Si Yiyan placed her onto the couch and pressed a kiss onto her lips forcefully.

Although he had always refrained from sour foods, he found the strawberry scent on her lips to be absolutely tempting. He opened his mouth and exclaimed, “Delicious!”

Wen Xinya had no idea if he was referring to the strawberry or her lips. Perhaps, it was a mix of both!

She looked extremely alluring.

The kiss was long, deep and passionate.

Just as Wen Xinya thought that she was about to let loose, Si Yiyan bit her earlobe and said, “Xinya, I…”

Having sensed his intentions, Wen Xinya refuted. “I’m sick… ”

During her recovery period, Si Yiyan had been doting on her and hence, he knew that she loved using her injury as an excuse to turn him down.

Si Yiyan interjected. “I’ve already consulted the doctor. He said that you’ve mostly recovered. It won’t affect our love-making!”

He had begun easing up ever since her wounds started to heal. However, he had been refraining from going overboard because she was still recuperating. He would keep it to once a day at the very most, and let her take cold baths.

Wen Xinya no longer had an excuse and hence, decided to resign to fate. Anyway, he would be the one to do all the work while she enjoyed the pleasure.

Si Yiyan would never hurt her.

Si Yiya licked her tender lips before kissing her neck and moving downwards…

The chilliness of his moist and tender lips made her get goosebumps. She murmured, “Si Yiyan…”

Lust and romance filled the air.
