Fang Xi’s name felt like a burn on Lin Yu’s tongue, and she glossed over it vaguely. A sneer flashed across Shi Gao’s face. Everyone knew about the farce at Lin Yu’s wedding. She was impressed that Lin Yu could mention Ye Kun and Fang Xi so calmly.

Shi Gao covered up her emotions and asked, “So, Xiang Yang came back for the wedding?”

Lin Yu nodded. “Yeah. Since Shi Nian and my mother-in-law are both staying in the same hospital, I went to visit him on behalf of the Xi family and had a chat with Xiang Yang.”

Lin Yu looked at Shi Gao and continued, “I know you want to know more about the Shi family’s news, so I came here to tell you as soon as I could. Xiang Yang also sighed that Shi Ke’s too busy and never has the time to accompany her around. He still has to carry out his mission in the army even though something this serious happened to Shi Nian, so he could only fully entrust her to look after the family.”

Shi Gao’s expression turned ugly at Lin Yu’s words, but Lin Yu turned a blind eye to it and remarked, “I heard from Xiang Yang that Shi Nian is hurt pretty badly this time. He suffered multiple fractures throughout his body and is still in a coma. The wedding is certain to be out on hold: the entire Shi familv is in a

mess.”

Shi Gao didn’t say anything. She didn’t care if the Shi family was in a mess. She only wanted to know that person’s—Shi Ke’s—situation.

“Shi Gao, have you met up with that Yun Liu I recommended to you? I think she should be able to help you. The person she wants to marry the most is Shi Nian, and she only chose Liang Han because Shi Nian doesn’t like her,” Lin Yu said meaningfully.

Shi Gao looked at Lin Yu. Lin Yu put down her teacup and stated, “I should get going. Don’t forget about what I asked you to do. I’ll help you keep an eye on Yun Nan and the others since I’m close at the hospital.”

Shi Gao felt her chest tighten and watched Lin Yu leave without standing up to send her off or say goodbye.

Ah Tao quietly walked in. “Shi Gao, what do you need me to do?”

“Arrange a party, ” Shi Gao uttered coldly. “Invite Yun Liu and Liang Han over and be subtle about it. Make sure they both come! Take some videos of Xi Cheng and edit the dates to match the previous ones. Lin Yu is a cunning woman, but since she’s so domineering, don’t blame me for fooling her!” “Yes, Shi Gao,” Ah Tao replied.

“Tell Gu Man that the Xi family’s young madam has noticed her scent on Young Master Xi Cheng. Tell her to be careful,” Shi Gao said lightly.

“Yes, ma’am!” Having gotten his instructions, Ah Tao turned around and left.

Shi Gao picked up her phone and dialed a number. When the call connected, she demanded, ‘What’s going on? Why didn’t Shi Ke return? Didn’t we agree to make Shi Ke come back?

The person on the other end answered, “Shi Ke is definitely seriously injured; our people saw it with their own eyes. He’s sure to return!”

Slightly angry, Shi Gao raised her voice to retort, “But he didn’t! He’s not seriously injured at all! We’ve already received news that Shi Ke is still in the army training today! It was the Shi family’s second son who got in a car accident and was seriously injured!”

“I was just about to talk to you about that. We want to take this opportunity to target the Shi family!”

Shi Gao stood up, and her voice was shrill as she exclaimed, “Are you guys crazy? Do you think the Shi family is like the Xi family? I don’t object to you guys targeting the Xi family. The Xi brothers don’t stand united and have long gone their own ways; their companies are under the Xi Corporation’s banner but are all divided. Xi Cheng is an idiot fixated on love; it won’t be difficult to take down the Xi family with him managing the family.”

She then continued, “But the Shi family is different! Shi Nian is in charge only because Shi Kong and Shi Yun don’t want to be, not because they can’t! Even if Shi Nian is injured—no, even if Shi Nian dies—the Shi family won’t fall into chaos. Shi Nian’s grandfather and father can step up to the plate at any time!”

Fury ignited in Shi Gao, and she hissed, “The Shi family is a steel drum compared to the Xi family! Who gave you guys the courage to touch the Shi family?”

The other party listened to her rant in silence before clearing their throat and saying, “Shi Gao, don’t think we don’t know what your intentions are! You plan to get Shi Ke out of the army and make him an ordinary citizen. Then, you’ll kill his younger siblings and leave the Shi family to him alone. That way, when you marry into the family, you’ll be the sole ruler of the family!”

The person warned, “However, I advise you to rein in your ambitions and curb your plans. The organization has its own arrangements. Targeting the Shi family isn’t our idea; this order came from the higher-ups. Don’t forget, obedience is our first duty! ”

Shi Gao was at a loss for words. Her anxiety and fury had her taking deep breaths, her chest heaving up and down violently. Unfortunately, the other party didn’t know that her expression was extremely ugly at this moment and added, “Oh right, the organization is very satisfied with the ‘goods’ you’ve selected during this period of time. Keep up the good work! The bosses have high hopes for you!”

The next thing Shi Gao heard from her phone was the call-disconnected tone.

All of them are a**h*les! This truly is a world full ofa**h*les!’
