Chapter 878: Miss Si Is Capable of Anything (2)
“I’m not afraid at all,” Si Fuqing clung to his shoulder. “Boss, you should hit him.”
Huo Yanxing paused for a moment and spoke casually, “Three years ago, I infiltrated an organization called Black Spider. That time, I almost died, but what I remember most is that a woman slept with me and then threw a stack of money at me before running away.”
Si Fuqing was stunned, “???”
Could he be talking about her third senior sister?!
Even if her third senior sister had face blindness, her body would still remember, right?
Could it be that this man was really uncapable in that regard?
Didn’t even leave a trace of an impression on Yuejian?
Si Fuqing remained silent throughout the journey.
After getting off the plane, she made an excuse to go to the restroom, found a stall, and called Yuejian, “Third senior sister, did you secretly have a man and not acknowledge him?”
“What are you talking about?” Yuejian was rarely caught off guard, “I told you, I’m still a virgin. Where would a man come from? I’m the Witch of the Night; I don’t need a man.”
Si Fuqing sighed, “… Now you agree with this childish title.”
She paused and then asked, “Did you participate in any major missions in the past few years?”
“Let me think.” Yuejian recalled, “If you mean major missions, I did take down a criminal organization called Black Spider three years ago. There were many evolved beings, and even the Evolved Beings Alliance didn’t intervene.”
“I had no choice. After discussing it with the second senior brother, I infiltrated the organization secretly. After six months, I succeeded and even fought with Zero’s people.”
Si Fuqing squinted her eyes.
The timing and name matched.
But something was missing.
No matter how advanced her computer skills were, she couldn’t find this out.
“Little Nine, are you here to ask for information because you have a crush?” Yuejian raised an eyebrow, “Among our nine single dogs, no one is above anybody else.”
Si Fuqing came back to her senses, “I have a crush on gold every day. Wouldn’t I die if I didn’t?”
Yuejian was speechless.
No fault in that logic.
Si Fuqing asked again, “Third senior sister, are you sure you’ve never had a man?”
“Absolutely not,” Yuejian yawned, “I can’t remember faces.”
“Got it.” Si Fuqing knew Yuejian genuinely had no recollection, “Anyone who falls for you is truly unlucky.”
Although she didn’t know Huo Yanxing’s current attitude towards Yuejian, she couldn’t help but feel sympathy for him.
After ending the call, Si Fuqing returned.
Huo Yanxing had already left.
Yu Xiheng turned and said, “Be careful when you act alone with your assistant.”
He didn’t yet know why T18’s people were lurking around her.
But if they posed any threat, he wouldn’t show mercy.
Si Fuqing was startled, “Don’t worry, Boss.”
He responded with a faint “hmm,” took her suitcase from her hand, and said, “I’m going.”
Si Fuqing followed behind with empty hands, feeling quite relaxed.
After walking for a while, she suddenly realized something.
Wait, wasn’t she supposed to be the bodyguard?
Why did it seem reversed?

Soon, the two arrived at the Mo family residence.
Mo Yanwen personally came out to greet them. After walking through a long corridor, he said, “Miss Si can stay next to Mr. Yu. This is the rear of the Mechanism City. Without permission from me and the elders, even the main family members can’t enter.”
“Thank you, Mr. Mo,” Si Fuqing thanked him. “I can stay anywhere.”
“Over there is the hidden weapon room,” Mo Yanwen smiled. “Miss Si probably hasn’t used the Dragon Sparrow Feathers yet. You can ask Mr. Yu to teach you.”
“I haven’t used them yet,” Si Fuqing said, “I’m not very familiar with hidden weapons.”
The construction of the Dragon Sparrow Feathers was indeed intricate, and even she didn’t dare to dismantle it easily.
“Mr. Yu personally designed the Dragon Sparrow Feathers. If you have any questions, feel free to ask him,” Mo Yanwen nodded. “I will leave now. If you need anything, just have Xi Jiang inform me.”
After Mo Yanwen left, Si Fuqing sat opposite Yu Xiheng, “Boss, you’re so talented. Have you ever tried to solve the Mechanism City?”
“Yes.” Yu Xiheng looked up and smiled slightly, “You should know from history that Mo Yanfeng sacrificed himself to complete the final process. This Mechanism City contains his blood, flesh, and essence, making it a sentient entity. This is currently unsolvable.”
Therefore, he could enter the inner parts of the Mechanism City safely, but others couldn’t.
There might be other ways, but he didn’t get to see Mo Yanfeng for the last time.
Even if there were, they were lost.
Si Fuqing was silent, “People of that era were truly great.”
Born into the Mo family, Mo Yanfeng was a noble and could have lived a life of wealth and honor.
But he sacrificed everything to ensure the impregnable defense of Yong’an City for generations to come.
“The truly remarkable figures are those who stand out in the present,” Yu Xiheng raised his eyebrows suddenly, “The times are different, and the situations are different. You’ve done very well.”
Looking into his light amber eyes, Si Fuqing’s heart stirred slightly.
It felt as if something familiar was there.
“Boss, you should rest first,” she said, standing up. “I’ll have to handle the movie script.”
Yu Xiheng replied, “Alright.”
After a while, the door was knocked on.
Yu Xiheng, as succinct as ever, said, “Come in.”
Xi Jiang came in cautiously and asked, “Brother Nine, if I fail the assessment, will you still want me?”
Yu Xiheng didn’t look up and said calmly, “If I don’t want you, you probably have nowhere else to go.”
“That’s good,” Xi Jiang sighed in relief and was very happy. “I’ve been following you for eight years, and I’ve always relied on you. But Brother Nine, you should keep an eye on Miss Si. Too many people want to take her away.”
“Sister Sang said many male celebrities in the entertainment industry want to pursue Miss Si. Brother Nine, those people have many tricks up their sleeves. If Miss Si gets taken away, you’ll regret it.”
Yu Xiheng looked up, his voice calm and unreadable, “Get out.”
Xi Jiang paused.
For the sake of his safety, he decided to leave quickly.

In the afternoon, after discussing the movie with Qu Linyun, Si Fuqing toured the inner city of Mo City with Xi Jiang.
The entire Mo City belonged to the Mo family.
Among the three major families, the Mo family was the most active in the public eye.
“Miss Si, you can buy anything you like,” Xi Jiang said cheerfully. “Brother Nine allocated a lot of money.”
“It’s okay, I’m just looking around,” Si Fuqing said. “We should save money.”
“Tan Xi Jiang!”
Xi Jiang shivered and turned around to see his father walking toward him angrily, “What are you doing?”
Xi Jiang responded quickly, “I took a job as Miss Si’s bodyguard. She pays me ten thousand a day.”
Little Bai glanced at him disdainfully.
If Si Fuqing’s fans heard this, they would know immediately that it was a lie..
“Ten thousand?” His father laughed angrily. “Do you know that money is the least valuable thing in the Mo family? Can money elevate your status here?”
Si Fuqing squinted slightly.
She wasn’t sure of Xi Jiang’s exact status in the Mo family.
But if he could deal directly with Mo Yanwen, it couldn’t be low?
Xi Jiang explained, “Dad, I’m really on a mission. I—”
“Come with me now,” Father Tan interrupted, “I’ve finally got you a place in Miss Chuyi’s class. If you pass and gain her approval, your chances of staying in the Mo family will greatly increase.”
“Dad, you’re being unreasonable,” Xi Jiang was starting to become impatient. “Dad, enough. Who can get an account for ‘Eternity’? There are only a few slots each year. Stop dreaming.”
“Miss Chuyi has two slots. Even if you don’t get one, it’s better than being a bodyguard for a female celebrity! Can she get you one?” His father was relentless. “Stop talking and come with me.”
Si Fuqing paused and looked at Xi Jiang seriously, “I can. Do you want one?”
