Chapter 67 You Have Offended Fu Yan Ting
He Yun searched the He family for Yan Xi's whereabouts and even checked the surveillance footage. Seeing how concerned He Yun was about Yan Xi, He Qi kindly reminded him, "Big Brother, Yan Xi is Fu Yan Ting's wife. You're so concerned about his wife; do you like her?"
He Yun gave He Qi a dismissive glance and replied, "There are things you shouldn't know, and it's best if you don't ask."
Although He Yun didn't directly answer, He Qi understood his meaning from his words.
He Qi looked at his half-brother and felt quite pleased. It seemed like it was time for the He family and the Fu family to compete.
He Yun was in a hurry to find Yan Xi and didn't have time to chat with He Qi. After He Yun left, He Qi messaged Shi Wen Wen, informing her of the news.
Suddenly, Shi Wen Wen no longer wanted Yan Xi to die.
If Yan Xi died accidentally like this, she might become a treasured memory in Fu Yan Ting's heart, someone he would never forget.
What she wanted was to completely erase Yan Xi from Fu Yan Ting's heart.
Why not let He Yun sleep with Yan Xi?
Then, let Fu Yan Ting witness it with his own eyes.
No man could accept such a reality.
Especially a proud man like Fu Yan Ting.
Shi Wen Wen told He Qi her plan.
He Qi frowned and, after a moment of silence, asked, "Wen Wen, isn't this a bit too much? He's my older brother. If something like this happens, it won't be good for the He family either."
"You consider He Yun your older brother? Have you ever asked for He Yun's opinion? Does he consider you a brother? Do I need to remind you what kind of life you have in the He family?"
Shi Wen Wen knew He Qi well and understood his weaknesses.
After speaking, she tempted him further, "He Qi, I know you're kind, but your kindness only leads to you being bullied by the He family. If you do this, you'll not only ruin Yan Xi but also allow the Fu family to deal with He Yun. Think about it, if the He family has problems because of He Yun, will they still give the company to He Yun?"
He Qi remained silent for a moment, then felt that Shi Wen Wen's words made sense.
After only a moment of consideration, He Qi agreed to Shi Wen Wen's request.
Shi Wen Wen's lips curved into a slight smile.
She knew He Qi would agree.
He Qi put away his phone and went to find He Yun. He Yun knew that He Qi's visit was not straightforward.
After all, they had never gotten along for so many years; it wouldn't change so quickly.
He Yun's intuition told him that Yan Xi's disappearance was related to He Qi, or at least, He Qi knew her whereabouts.
Therefore, He Yun decided to play along.
He wanted to see what kind of tricks He Qi was up to.
As expected, He Qi engaged He Yun in pleasantries, seeking to drink and confide in him. He Yun actually had a good tolerance for alcohol, but with He Qi, he feigned drunkenness. After just one bottle of red wine, he appeared intoxicated and slumped onto the table, asleep.
Seeing that He Yun was asleep, He Qi messaged Shi Wen Wen and then carried He Yun back to a room.
This was not He Yun's room.
Although He Yun and He Qi hadn't gotten along for years, He Qi still knew where He Yun's room was. The fact that He Qi didn't take He Yun back to his own room raised suspicions.
He Yun remained still.
When he returned to the bed, he found a woman lying there.
The woman's eyes were closed, her face seemed drained of color, and there were glistening traces near her eyes.
He Yun took one look and realized this was Yan Xi, whom he had been searching for all day.
He Yun and Fu Yan Ting coordinated their efforts.
He Yun gently woke Yan Xi. Yan Xi slowly opened her eyes and saw He Yun. Her voice was soft and weak as she asked, "He Yun, is it really you?"
"Where is Fu Yan Ting?"
After speaking, Yan Xi fainted.
Upon receiving He Yun's message, Fu Yan Ting rushed to the He family's residence. On the way, he received another call from Shi Wen Wen. Shi Wen Wen vaguely told Fu Yan Ting on the phone that Yan Xi had gone to the He family.
Fu Yan Ting was not a fool. If he couldn't figure out their scheme at this point, he wouldn't be Fu Yan Ting.
He hung up the phone and immediately called his assistant.
When the assistant answered, Fu Yan Ting coldly ordered, "Within ten minutes, I want the Shi family bankrupt. And for the He family, their stock price must drop by three points."
After speaking, Fu Yan Ting hung up and hurried to the He family's residence.
As Fu Yan Ting turned a corner, he saw a figure watching him from a car behind.
Fu Yan Ting let out a cold laugh.
Laugh now, because you won't be able to in ten minutes.
No, there are only eight minutes left.
Fu Yan Ting withdrew his gaze and drove directly into the He family compound.
As soon as Fu Yan Ting parked his car, a butler stepped forward and said, "Young Master He Yun has been waiting for you for a long time. This way, please."
After speaking, he led Fu Yan Ting.
Upon entering the room, He Yun frowned and looked at Fu Yan Ting, saying, "Yan Xi has fainted. Before she lost consciousness, she called your name."
Fu Yan Ting looked at the pale woman on the bed. She had only been away from home for a day, but to Fu Yan Ting, it felt like a year.
"Yan Ting, your real birthday is in ten days."
Fu Yan Ting's face darkened.
This birthday was a forbidden topic for Fu Yan Ting.
That's why, when He Qi and Shi Wen Wen visited the Fu family earlier, the birthday they celebrated for Fu Yan Ting was his official one on his ID.
"Yan Ting, you can't be like this. If you've decided on Yan Xi and want to be with her forever, then you need to let her know about your past. It would be fair to her and to you."
Fu Yan Ting still ignored He Yun, scooping Yan Xi into his arms and preparing to leave.
"Yan Ting, as a friend, I'm doing this for your own good. Do you think Yan Xi knows nothing just because you don't say anything? Rather than waiting for others to tell her and lead to misunderstandings, it's better for you to tell her yourself. If she can accept it, then you continue. If she can't, it's better to have a short pain than a long one."
Fu Yan Ting continued to ignore He Yun, his expression growing even more grim.
He Yun wanted to persuade him further, but the words caught in his throat. He swallowed them back. Fine, Fu Yan Ting was an adult; he knew what was more important.
However, He Yun was worried that Yan Xi would be hurt again.
And this secret was something Fu Yan Ting couldn't speak of. He Yun worried that if he blurted it out, Fu Yan Ting might become enraged.
After careful consideration, He Yun decided not to say anything.
He thought Fu Yan Ting would just leave with Yan Xi in his arms.
But as Fu Yan Ting reached the doorway, he suddenly stopped. Without turning around, he said calmly, "I have already instructed my assistant to handle the He family's shares. They will drop by three points. I have transferred the money from these three points to your private account, not a penny less."
