Chapter 422: Looking For Si Xia
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Si Xia had always regarded Yin Mo as a thorn in her side and wanted nothing more than to get rid of her.
Now that she was discharged from the hospital, she would definitely pick a fight with Yin Mo as soon as possible. If Mary took this opportunity to make a deal with Si Xia-
Mary was shocked. She said, “Right now? President Yin, what do you have in mind? Si Fan won’t let my younger brother go that easily, right? He still thinks I’m useful to him.”
Yin Xun smiled and said, “It’s okay. If he won’t release Mark, we’ll find someone else to release him.”
In response to Mary’s puzzled gaze, Yin Xun slowly explained her plan. “Si Fan has a sister called Si Xia. She has been hospitalized because of her poor health. Si Fan is only intimidated by her. If it’s her request, Si Fan will most likely fulfill it. You can go look for her. As long as she helps, you will be able to save your brother.”
“But…” Mary frowned. “Since she’s Si Fan’s sister, she must be on Si Fan’s side. Why would she help me?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. Just follow what I told you…” Yin Xun signaled Mary to come over to her side and told Mary the plan in a whisper.
“Yes, I understand.” Mary nodded. After she heard Yin Xun’s plan, her expression changed from blank to excited. She was full of admiration as she said, “President Yin, you are a worthy president. No—with your brains, it’s a waste to just be a president. If it was in ancient times, you would have been a military advisor.”
Yin Xun,”?”
Was that all it took to be a president? Although she knew Mary was praising her, Yin Xun somehow felt that the words were strange, as if she was mocking her.
However, seeing Mary still have the energy to joke made Yin Xun feel a little comforted.
Mary did not know what Yin Xun was thinking. Now that she had a way to save her brother, she could not stay still any longer. After saying goodbye to Yin Xun, she quickly left the office.
She was worried that Si Fan would send someone to follow her, so before leaving the company building, she disguised herself as a cleaner.
She already had experience with this in the past, so this time, she looked very close to the real thing in her disguise. Even her close friends did not recognize her. They walked past her without even looking at her.
It was a great success. Mary felt relieved and walked out of the office pompously. Then, she hailed a taxi and rushed to Si Xia’s hospital.
Before she made the journey, Yin Xun had already told her about Si Xia’s ward. Mary did not hesitate and went straight to Si Xia’s ward.
The door was closed, and Mary drew herself up on her toes, trying to see what was happening through the glass in the door. Unfortunately, there was a curtain on the inside, so she could not see anything.
Mary knocked on the door. She had no choice but to meet Si Xia directly.
To be honest, she was getting a little nervous now. She heard that because Si Xia was sick all year round, she had a bad temper and would even hit people.
She was not afraid of being beaten up, but she was worried that if she failed to have a good conversation with Si Xia, it would cause her to be angry and complain to Si Fan. It would be horrible if the plan backfired.
“Come in,” someone inside said. It must be Si Xia.
Mary took a deep breath and patted her cheeks, trying to relax.
Earlier, Yin Xun had specially instructed her not to show any fear when negotiating. Otherwise, she would be at their mercy. Even if she was the weaker party, she had to remain calm and never let the other side see that she was nervous.
After composing herself, Mary pushed open the door and walked in.
There was only one woman in a hospital gown in the ward. It seemed like this was Si Xia.
The Si Xia that Yin Xun described was a lunatic. Mary stood at the door and did not rush in. Instead, she looked at Si Xia.
Perhaps it was because she was sick, but Si Xia looked exceptionally thin, like a skeleton wearing a full set of clothes. However, her long hair was like an elegant waterfall that casually draped over her back.
At this moment, she was sitting on a chair in front of the window with her back to the sun. There was a book on her knees and she was facing Mary. When the sun shone over her, her body seemed to be glowing slightly. Mary could not see her face clearly, but she felt that the scene was inexplicably beautiful.
“Are you new here? Why are you wearing clothes like that? Next time, before you come to my room to clean, remember to change your clothes. Your clothes are filthy and ugly; you’re ruining my mood.” Si Xia’s tone was full of unconcealed disdain..
