Hunting for Love for 101 Times

Chapter 357 Why didn’t you kill him

Xia Nuan held Ansheng into her arms, begging Ye Sichen, “They’re just kids. You can blame them. Why do you have to ask them to introspect themselves on the third floor?”

“They will be more presumptuous when they grow up if I don’t give them a lesson now! They should learn to respect their grandma even if they don’t like her.” Ye Sichen took Ansheng away from Xia Nuan, forcing him not to cry. Ansheng just shut up, and dared not to cry out.

“Well. You can punish Wuyou and Nianci if you think they’re wrong. But Ansheng is innocent. He’s just a kid.”

“Nuan, they will be spoiled. I just want to nip their bad minds in the bud.”

Ye Sichen held Ansheng away. Ansheng looked at Xia Nuan aggrievedly, with tears on his face.

Xia Nuan was distressed, but she could not stop anything.

It was out of her expectation that the three children were locked up for a whole day while Xia Nuan thought they would just be punished by introspecting for several hours. So, she could not bear it and decided to go to the third floor to release them out.

They had not had lunch yet!

The room was locked when she got on the third floor. She asked Di Luoke for the key, but the latter told her that she needed to get the permission of Ye Sichen.

Xia Nuan had no choice but to knock on the door of the room of Ye Sichen.

He was talking with Ken on the phone to ask about Gu Jinhan. Xia Nuan broke into the room directly for her children.

Ye Sichen hung up, looking at Xia Nuan. Xia Nuan required him to release children.

“Ye, this can be attributed to me. Do you even want to lock me up? How can you do this to our children? They are too young and vulnerable to be treated like this. Don’t you feel it a bit excessive?”

“Nuan, I don’t want them to detest their grandma. And I hope you can stop provoking them into doing something like this in the future. Can you do it?” Ye Sichen asked her.

“You always limit my movements, and forced me to do what you want. I have been tolerating for you all the time. What else do you want? The children are not idiots. Can’t they feel Mrs. Ni’s attitude towards them even if I don’t provoke them?” Xia Nuan felt Ye Sichen was partial to Mrs. Ni, who was his mother, after all. What could she do to change it?

“I admit. But I hope you can teach them something good instead of hatred.” Ye Sichen stood up slowly.

“Well. I will. Now release them out.” Although she did not provoke the children into detesting Mrs. Ni, she had to make a compromise in order to release them.

Soon, Ye Sichen called Di Luoke to release children.

When Xia Nuan went out, the three children dropped their heads, felt upset and tired, and went down stairs. She stepped forward to hold them into arms.

From then on, the children did not dare to censure Mrs. Ni. Out of concern about children, Xia Nuan seldom mentioned Mrs. Ni to them. Even if she talked about Mrs. Ni with Ye Sichen sometimes, she just lowered her voice to avoid being heard by them.

Nan Zhentian required to see Ye Sichen for several times, but Ye Sichen just let Meng Zuo receive him. Nan Zhentian was frustrated, but he never gave up.

Finally, Ye Sichen agreed to see him. Nan Zhentian came here immediately.

What he asked first was about the recording tape.

Ye Sichen just said that the recording tape was swapped by Xiao Chi. Nan Zhentian was a little upset and after consideration, he said, “Mr. Cong, I think you can’t expose Xiao Chi’s crime even though you’ve got the recording tapes, because Xiao Chi is with the Allies.”

“I knew it. But Xiao Chi will be abandoned by the Allies soon.” Ye Sichen seemed to be confident.

What he said surprised Nan Zhentian.

“So, sir, you don’t need to worry about this, just to be a witness. If you have nothing else to ask, you’d better not to appear here, lest Xiao Chi be suspicious about you. Don’t forget your son is still under the control of him.”

Nan Zhentian was shocked, looking at Ye Sichen unbelievably, “You’ve known it all?”

“Yes. I knew Xiao Chi let you come for the evidences including the tape. He kidnapped your son to threaten you. I know you have no choice. No matter what you have done to me, I will forgive you.” Ye Sichen said softly.

Nan Zhentian looked at Ye Sichen with gratitude. He was distressed, “I’m sorry. I had no choice. Xiao Chi threatened me with my son and let me frame you. He asked me to deal with you by all means, but how can I deceive you?”

“Sir, don’t worry. You can lie to Xiao Chi, telling him that you have ambushed here. He will relax his vigilance, and then I will find a way to deal with him.”

“Really? Mr. Cong, are you sure you can deal with him?”

“Yes, I’ll find a way to rescue your son.” Ye Sichen was determined.

Nan Zhentian felt at ease and left. He returned to Xiao Chi as Ye Sichen said.

Xiao Chi was in a good mood when he saw his face was recovering gradually. Nan Zhentian stood next to him, lowered his eyes and spoke out his plan.

“I have ambushed properly around Cong Shen. You just need to give an order, and my people will make an attack. But I hope you can release my son－Nan Xiu, when I finish this task.”

“You can rest assured. If you complete these things successfully, I’ll allow you to make up for it.”

“I’m very grateful.” Nan Zhentian saluted him slightly.

Xiao Chi stood up, casting a glance at Nan Zhentian, “Ni Yuan, I think we can cooperate with each other to fight against Cong Shen, because I suspect Cong Shen is Ye Sichen. The Allies has found out the background of Ye Sichen. He is the son of your brother Ni Feng. If I am defeated by him, he will replace me as the president of Country A, and you will never have a bright day then. But if we win, when I abdicate, you will have a chance to be the president.”

“Are you saying Cong Shen is Ye Sichen?” Nan Zhentian was so shocked that he opened his mouth.

“Yes. It was told by a person named Gu Jinhan. He knows very well about Ye Sichen, especially about his wife－Xia Nuan.” Xiao Chi sneered.

Nan Zhentian was confused when hearing this.

Xiao Chi suddenly frowned, and felt itchy again. He thought he had an illusion, scratched his face, but found it was bloody. He was shocked and became angry, “Zhentian, could you please leave now? I have something else to deal with.”

Nan Zhentian asked him, “Then, when will we start the attack?”

Xiao Chi took medical gauze to protect his face. Suddenly, the feeling of itch was even more intense. He tried his best to restrain it and pretended to be elegant.

“Wait. Wait for my order.”

If the allergy of his face recurred, he must go to see Cong Shen again, so he could not kill Cong Shen now.

Nan Zhentian left with a heavy mind. Xiao Chi immediately called his assistant. His assistant was scared when he saw Xiao Chi’s face started blooding again.

“The damn Cong Shen! He deceived me!” Xiao Chi said to his assistant, “Give me that antidote! I need it!”

The assistant looked for it in a hurry, but found nothing. He then remembered that the antidote was used up.

“Mr. Xiao, the antidote has been used up.”

Xiao Chi slapped the assistant on his face, “You bastard! I need it now. You must get it for me!”

The assistant covered his face, and went back, “But, only Cong Shen has the antidote!”

Xiao Chi’s eyes were full of anger and hatred when he heard this. But he had to compromise due to his itchy face. He fell down on the chair, “Give Cong Shen a call.”

The assistant dialed Cong Shen’s phone number, with deep scare, and handed the phone to Xiao Chi.

Xiao Chi hung up, and went to find Ye Sichen again. This time, Ye Sichen received him in the living room, in the name of Cong Shen.

“Sir, I have given you the antidote. Why did you come to see me again?” Ye Sichen was a little confused.

Xiao Chi looked at Ye Sichen coldly, “You lied to me. The antidote didn’t work at all. Cong Shen, what do you want to do?”

Behind Xiao Chi stood several strong subordinates. They were all armed with weapons.

Ye Sichen did not care about them. He would not kill Xiao Chi now, because he wanted to send Xiao Chi to the court.

“Now that the antidote I gave you didn’t work, why did you come here again?” Ye Sichen asked.

“Let’s be honest. The antidote has been used up. I need a final antidote to cure my face. You can’t deceive me again.” Xiao Chi said in a bitter tone.

“Well. I can give you. But I have conditions.”

“What conditions?” Xiao Chi could not bear the itch on his face anymore.

“I hope you can recommend me to the Allies. Could you do it for me?” Ye Sichen looked at Xiao Chi in an inquiring way and waited for his answer.

“What are you going to do?” Xiao Chi asked.

“I’m an oil businessman. I naturally want to expand my business to the maximum. So, I just want to do business with the Allies.” Ye Sichen said honestly.

“Well. I’ll recommend you to the Allies. Please give me the antidote right now.”

“I’m sorry. My people are still making it. You need to wait. I’ll give it to you after I meet with the head of the Allies.”

“You…” Xiao Chi knew Ye Sichen was deliberate. But he could not tolerate the pain on his face anymore.

“All right. I’ll arrange the meeting as soon as possible.” Xiao Chi stood up with difficulty. He left embarrassedly, with the support of his subordinates.

Mrs. Ni could not restrain her emotions, and came out of the room, “Chen, why didn’t you kill him?”
