After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity
Chapter 246 - 246 244 Do not be afraid of businessChapter 246: Chapter 244: Do not be afraid of business competition. Chapter 246: Chapter 244: Do not be afraid of business competition. They entered a modestly luxurious restaurant in Hai Zhou City for dinner.
Qi Si had chosen a very nice environment, quiet and secluded, perfectly considering her current status.
No sooner had Qi Si sat down than his phone buzzed in his pocket.
Shen Yan browsed the menu and noticed he was about to turn off his phone and said, “Take the business call, I’ll order first.”
Qi Si glanced at the caller ID and stood up to take the call outside.
After Shen Yan ordered, Qi Si returned to the private room.
“I ordered some home-style dishes, Mr. Qi, see if there’s anything to add.”
Qi Si glanced over them and handed the menu to the waiter, “Just these.”
The waiter lingered a bit longer on Shen Yan, took the menu from Qi Si, glanced again, and left still looking back.
Qi Si’s handsome brow furrowed slightly, unimpressed with the service here.
“Is everything settled in Beijing?”
“Yes.”
“Is this business trip to Hai City going to be long?”
Reminded of the previous conversation where Shen Yan mentioned wanting to take a boat, he replied, “We’ll be negotiating on the island and will stay a few days.”
“So, I…”
“You wanted to take a boat?”
Shen Yan realized, “Can I also come to the island this time?”
Qi Si nodded, “No problem following.”
Shen Yan immediately assured, “I won’t disturb Mr. Qi’s business!”
During the meal, Shen Yan ate an extra half bowl.
Qi Si did not wait for Shen Yan to call Liu Su; he had already explained everything to Liu Su himself.
When Liu Su received Qi Si’s call, he almost laughed his head off.
Both were busy, and Liu Su had found no chance for them to be alone. Now with the opportunity, Liu Su obviously didn’t want anyone disturbing them, booked a ticket overnight, and dragged Xiao Zhao back to Shen City the next day.
The morning air was still a bit chilly. Sitting at the front of the speedboat, Shen Yan noted the different route and knew it wasn’t the same tourist island as before.
She turned back and saw Qi Si on a call, so she didn’t disturb him.
Qi Si was keeping an eye on Shen Yan the entire time, and when she turned to look, he caught her glance.
He hurriedly finished the overseas call and walked up behind her, draping a shawl over her shoulders.
Shen Yan turned with a smile, “Mr. Qi.”
“It’s chilly in the morning; wear this.”
“Oh,” Shen Yan didn’t discuss further.
“Mr. Qi,” his assistant finished the call and came over, looking somewhat uneasy.
Just as Qi Si was about to say something, Shen Yan stood up, “It’s windy outside; I’ll go in, you talk.”
Qi Si watched her move toward the cabin and quietly said, “Speak.”
The assistant, not wanting to disturb the two, stated somewhat miserably, “The other party changed the location; it’s closer to the river, feels a bit off.”
A cold light flashed in Qi Si’s icy eyes, “Find out who they brought, and have the nearby islands on standby.”
The assistant nodded gravely, dialing as he walked to the back of the boat.
Qi Si coldly watched the faintly visible island ahead and turned back to glance at the cabin door.
Feeling the boat come to a stop, Shen Yan came out with washed fruit, “Oh? Are we stopping here?”
The island was very small.
And sparsely populated.
Only one or two boats were moored to the side.
It clearly wasn’t an open island.
Shen Yan turned and looked back, noticing the odd expressions on the faces of those following Qi Si.
She couldn’t help but become alert.
“The boat has a bit of trouble, stopping for repairs.”
“Can we walk around this small island?” Shen Yan pointed to the scarcely populated island.
Qi Si nodded, then led Shen Yan toward the shore.
“Mr. Qi is coming too?”
“Yes.”
Qi Si signaled his people, and accompanied Shen Yan onto the island.
The people on the island all stared at them as they arrived, and Shen Yan noticed that they frowned, seemingly unwelcoming their intrusion.
Shen Yan walked for a bit before stopping, “We should stop moving forward.”
Qi Si also saw the men who had come ashore and were heading their way.
It was only when Shen Yan saw them coming together that she stopped.
These people were casually holding fishing gear pretending to prepare to go out to sea to fish, and suddenly put down whatever they were holding and surrounded them.
Something didn’t seem right.
“Mr. Qi…”
Her words were cut off as a strong hand pulled her behind him.
Qi Si’s tall figure blocked her, his gaze coldly fixed on the men approaching.
His presence provided an ultimate sense of security for his people.
Outsiders, seeing this, subconsciously tensed up, guarding against him.
“Move back.”
“Mr. Qi…”
“Don’t be afraid.”
Qi Si turned to look at her, his dark eyes gently reassuring.
Shen Yan stared at him, stunned!
“It’s him,” the men coming forward pulled out their phones, glanced at the blurry photo on the screen, and pointed at Qi Si loudly.
With that shout, the men charged at Qi Si with menacing looks.
Shen Yan was still caught in the words “Don’t be afraid,” when the next second, she saw the man in front of her catch a descending knife with one hand and, with a forceful kick, the person he kicked had their bone break with a “crack” and was howling in pain on the ground.
Qi Si’s movements were fierce and quick.
His long legs gave him a significant advantage, and the men with gleaming knives couldn’t even touch his clothes.
The man on the ground, seeing Shen Yan still standing there stunned, gritted his teeth, grabbed the knife, and violently lunged at her.
Qi Si quickly dealt with these people, but turning back, he saw that someone had still managed to get up and was attacking Shen Yan, his eyes narrowed sharply!
In the instant that the knife came slashing down at Shen Yan, Qi Si swiftly grabbed the man’s wrist and twisted down forcefully, bringing him crashing to the ground.
There was a “crack” as the man’s hand broke.
The dull pain made the man on the ground scream.
A tensed force pulled Shen Yan forward; she almost collided with the warm chest in front of her.
Qi Si held her hand tightly, staring at her.
Shen Yan looked up to meet his eyes, flashing with urgency, and his expression was also very tense.
“Scared?”
He asked in a hoarse voice.
Shen Yan shook her head, then suddenly smiled at him, “No.”
Seeing her smiling, Qi Si slightly furrowed his eyebrows, then his expression cooled down further.
Several bodyguards ran over and, seeing the scene before them, their expressions changed, “Mr. Qi, we…”
“Take them to the coast, hand them over to the police.”
“Yes.”
But before handing them over to the police, they would conduct their own interrogation.
Watching the bodyguards take those people onto a boat on the island to leave, Shen Yan asked worriedly, “Mr. Qi, these people have drawn knives, is that really okay? Is the deal we are about to discuss very dangerous?”
For a moment, Shen Yan almost suspected it was Jian Yu’s arrangement.
“Just pure business competition.”
Knives were involved, it was hardly just pure business competition.
Seeing that he didn’t want to talk, Shen Yan didn’t ask further.
“Back to the boat,” Qi Si coldly scanned the surroundings, leading Shen Yan back to their boat.
The assistant was already waiting there, “Mr. Qi, we have figured it out.”
Seeing this, Shen Yan said, “I’ll go aboard first.”
Qi Si watched Shen Yan enter the cabin before withdrawing his gaze, the chill in his icy eyes visibly sharpened.
Through the boat window, Shen Yan looked back toward the shore; she could only see the backs of the two men and couldn’t read their lips.
Shen Yan gave up and withdrew her gaze, sitting on the small sofa, pulling out her phone. The signal here was weak, so after trying a few times with the app, she put it away.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of naval vessels in the distance and walked to the back, drew the curtains, and saw several ships approaching from behind on the sea.
She sensed that the newcomers bore ill intent!
