Chapter 391: Meeting Xi Shijin Again
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xi Shijin’s assistant, Byron, arrived at the kidnappers’ location quickly.
Nan Yan noticed someone approaching through the window and turned to look at the terrified kidnappers. “Do you know what to do now?”
“Yes, we know, we know!”
The kidnappers all spoke in unison, afraid of provoking Nan Yan and facing her wrath again.
Seeing that they understood, Nan Yan casually tossed the gun to Kidnapper A. She then found a comfortable angle on the sofa and reclined.
This position allowed her to keep an eye on the direction of the door and monitor the kidnappers’ behavior.
Her icy and murderous gaze kept the kidnappers in check, even though they had guns in their possession. Kidnapper A, in particular, felt that the gun was burning his hand and quickly concealed it behind his clothes to show that he wouldn’t act recklessly.
A few minutes later, Byron had arrived outside the door.
He rang the doorbell, and within three seconds, someone came to open the door.
Byron wondered if it was just his imagination, but he felt like these people were looking at him with eyes full of gratitude, like he was a Bodhisattva coming to their rescue.
However, upon closer inspection, everything seemed normal.
He furrowed his brow and dismissed his suspicions, getting straight to the point, “Where is she?”
The kidnapper standing at the door quickly stepped aside, saying, “She’s right there. Please take her away!”
Quickly, take her away!
This killing machine, just being in the same room as her gave them the creeps.
Byron approached Nan Yan, taking a moment to size her up.
He hadn’t expected that Director Xi would go to such lengths for a young girl.
However, this young girl was undeniably beautiful, and her beauty transcended both Eastern and Western standards. Even from his Western perspective, he found her captivating.
But alas…
She was the person Director Xi wanted, so he couldn’t help but think of what she might taste like.
Byron let this fleeting thought pass through his mind without showing any outward signs.
“This is the reward from Director Xi. Take the money and leave M Country as soon as possible.”
“Yes, yes, we’ll leave right away!”
The kidnappers eagerly accepted the card Byron handed them and didn’t even stop to count the money before making a hasty exit, as if they were being chased by a pack of wolves and tigers.
Byron:
What’s going on here?
Did he really expect them to leave this quickly?
As he pondered this for a few seconds, all the kidnappers in the room had run off, leaving only him and Nan Yan, who appeared to be “unconscious.”
Byron rubbed his chin in confusion but decided not to dwell on it. He bent down to pick up Nan Yan, preparing to report back.
Inside the car.
Upon seeing Byron carrying Nan Yan out, Qin Lu’s aura suddenly turned freezing, dropping below zero degrees.
Wu Yue shrunk in his seat, trying his best to stay out of the Young Master’s line of sight.
He was afraid that if the Young Master got angry, he would vent his rage on innocent people!
It wasn’t until Byron placed Nan Yan in the car and drove away that Qin Lu finally spoke in a low, calm tone, “Follow them.”
Wu Yue quickly replied, “Yes, Young Master!”
Xing Jia was on her way, and it seemed that when she arrived, they would have to change their location again to meet her.
He wondered why the Young Master had asked Xing Jia to come all the way here, but he didn’t dare to ask.
With frustration in his heart, he pressed the gas pedal, slowly keeping up with Byron’s car.
At a research facility.
The car came to a stop outside an underground research facility.
After unfastening his seatbelt, Byron got out of the car, opened the rear door, and lifted Nan Yan out.
Then, carrying Nan Yan, he walked to the elevator and used a fingerprint scanner, followed by a password input, before they could enter.
This was Xi Shijin’s private research facility, and he was waiting for them here. After about two or three minutes of taking Nan Yan down in the elevator, another car pulled up outside.
Wu Yue asked in a low voice, “What do we do now, Young Master?”
If they wanted to get inside, it wouldn’t be that easy.
Qin Lu’s voice sounded desolate, “Find out the research facility’s collaborators.”
Wu Yue instantly understood what their Young Master wanted to do!
He responded promptly and quickly went to investigate.
The elevator continued to descend for about fifteen seconds, judging by the elevator’s speed, covering a distance of over thirty meters.
Nan Yan pretended to be unconscious, but her mental focus remained on her surroundings.
Byron, while somewhat lustful, wasn’t blinded by desire. He didn’t take advantage of Nan Yan’s “unconsciousness” to do anything improper. Instead, he held her in a respectful manner.
Ding—
A sound signaled the elevator’s arrival, and the tightly closed doors slowly opened.
They had reached their destination.
Xi Shijin paced back and forth in his office; his hidden emotions reflected in his menacing eyes.
He would soon see this “Nan Yan” in person. He couldn’t help but wonder about the connection between her and the previous “Nan Yan” who had died at his hands.
Was she the surviving daughter of the Nan family? But as far as he knew, there was only one daughter for Nan Mingxuan and Rong Li, and that was Nan Yan. There was no second child.
What was her true identity?
Since he couldn’t figure it out, he decided to wait until he met her in person to ask her directly.
A cruel glint flashed in Xi Shijin’s eyes.
He would not allow anyone who posed a threat to his status and identity to exist!
Knock, knock, knock—
Someone knocked on the office door.
Xi Shijin reined in his thoughts and went to open the door.
“Director, we’ve brought her back,” Byron said respectfully, holding Nan Yan.
Xi Shijin quickly looked at Nan Yan’s face.
It was a face that looked somewhat innocent and exceptionally beautiful, but it was completely different from the Nan Yan he remembered.
She was not her!
It made sense; he had personally shot Nan Yan in the heart and set fire to the entire lab. She couldn’t have possibly come back to life!
In the ruins, her remains had been found, DNA tests confirmed her identity. She had died a long time ago!
Xi Shijin quietly breathed a sigh of relief and then ordered in a commanding tone, “Place her on the sofa.’
After six months, hearing Xi Shijin’s voice again rekindled the hatred that Nan Yan had suppressed in her heart.
For a moment, she wished she could act right now and take Xi Shijin’s life!
However, in the end, she chose to endure, to bide her time and stay still.
There were too many unanswered questions about her parents’ deaths, and through her investigations during this period, she had uncovered significant secrets about Xi Shijin.
She needed to understand why he had killed her entire family.
Her parents’ cause of death remained a mystery, and she had no idea what Xi Shijin’s ultimate goal was, even in the face of death.
This time, she had to find out!
So, Nan Yan suppressed her burning hatred and prepared herself to act her part convincingly in the upcoming drama.
“Director, she’s been drugged. Should we wake her up?” Byron inquired.
Xi Shijin examined Nan Yan repeatedly, even touching her face several times. After confirming that this face was genuine and not a disguise, his doubts grew deeper.
Thinking about the T-2 reagent in her possession, he couldn’t wait to find out.
He instructed, “Go get the antidote.”

Byron fetched the antidote.
Three minutes later, he returned with a syringe.
Xi Shijin took it and, holding Nan Yan’s hand, injected the antidote into her bloodstream.
Nan Yan had not actually been drugged.
Fortunately, the antidote wouldn’t harm her body, so to maintain her pretense of being drugged, she made no resistance..
