Chapter 41 - Si Shenxing's confidante

Xia Zhuozhuo never took those trivial disturbances to heart. She felt that being jealous for someone, whether the emotion was from love, friendship or family affection, was a childish trick and unnecessary. Because in her heart, those things that needed to be obtained through fighting did not belong to her world. And those that truly belonged to her would stay quietly by her side without her having to fight for them. Xia Zhuozhuo ignored Xia Huaiwu's slightly embarrassed expression, touched the screen of her mobile phone with her fingertips, and quickly sent a text message to her eldest brother Xia Huaizheng. The text message was written in Xia Huaiwu's tone, telling him that "he" was safe and sound, and that he did not return home last night because of handling private matters, and was not in Shanghai at the moment. As soon as the message was sent, Xia Huaizheng's phone call came right after. A text message was obviously not enough to make the Xia family completely at ease. Xia Zhuozhuo had expected this, so he quickly handed the phone to Xia Huaiwu. Xia Huaiwu tried to maintain his usual calm tone and reported to Xia Huaizheng that he was safe. After Xia Huaizheng's disappointing words, the call finally came to an end. Xia Huaiwu also breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly fell asleep under the effect of the drug. Xia Zhuozhuo left the room quietly. After A Mai left with Si Shenxing, he left Huo Gang waiting at the door to take care of him at any time. Huo Gang knew that Xia Zhuozhuo was most likely the person the young master had been looking for, so he did not dare to neglect him at all. "Miss Zhuozhuo, how is the fifth young master Xia?" "He has stabilized and is resting now." Xia Zhuozhuo replied softly. "That's good. Do you want to walk around? Relax your mood?" Huo Gang suggested enthusiastically. The doctor also agreed: "Miss, the toxins in your body need to be discharged by breathing more fresh air, which is good for your body." Xia Zhuozhuo certainly understood this. She just wanted to take this opportunity to test how high Fenglinwan's security level is. After all, there are not many places where Guzi can provide tight security. "Okay." She nodded, "But I prefer quietness, just wandering around." Huo Gang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Then I'll take you to enter the facial recognition information first." "Face recognition?" Xia Zhuozhuo was a little curious. "Yes." Huo Gang explained proudly, "Fenglinwan uses the latest security system of S Group. This system mainly relies on AI technology to operate. Any person who breaks in without permission and has not entered the facial information in advance will be detected and alarmed immediately by the system. If necessary, the system will also use the anesthetic drugs in the security equipment to knock out the intruder." Xia Zhuozhuo couldn't help but feel a little toothache. Fortunately, she didn't come to Fenglinwan directly as planned yesterday, but went to the Ancient Martial Arts Hall first. Otherwise... the scene would be embarrassing. He broke in without any preparation and without knowing the security situation here, and was knocked unconscious. The portrait information was quickly entered into the system. Huo Gang said: "You can now move freely inside and outside the villa. If you need it, call my name at any time. Once the security system detects your voice, I will know it immediately and rush over." Xia Zhuozhuo slightly pulled the corner of his mouth to show that he understood. After walking out of the villa, Xia Zhuozhuo saw a sparkling lake in front of him, and lush maple trees surrounded this artificial lake. Because it is not autumn yet, the leaves of the maple trees are not red yet. But it can be imagined that in autumn, the scenery here will be beautiful. Xia Zhuozhuo walked along the artificial lake for half a circle, and suddenly found a two-story villa not far away. Because it was blocked by the maple forest, she did not notice this house before when she was in the main building. Although the small villa has only two floors, it is very delicate and unique in design. Xia Zhuozhuo walked slowly to the door, and was about to guess when the house was built, but the door was suddenly opened. A woman in a tight dress The hem of her skirt was slit above her knees, and the neckline was just right, revealing her delicate collarbone and flat belly. Her long golden hair shone with a charming luster in the sun, charming and sexy. Could this woman be... Shenxing's confidante? But didn't her mother say that Si Shenxing was her fiancé? Since she already had a confidante, why did she get engaged to her? Xia Zhuozhuo frowned subconsciously, and her heart was full of disdain for Si Shenxing. And while Xia Zhuozhuo was looking at her, the other party was also looking at Xia Zhuozhuo. She was Anya, who Si Shenxing brought back from the Du family mansion. Since she was brought here, Anya has tried countless ways to escape from this place. But every time she was about to escape successfully, she would always be discovered by Si Shenxing's people. Gradually, she understood that although there were not many security personnel here, surveillance was everywhere. A tree or a stone could hide a camera. By now, she knew clearly that it was impossible for her to escape, so she simply gave up and stayed here. Since she could not leave, she began to hope that Si Shenxing would have a little affection for her. And even if he did not have a good impression, it didn't matter, she had the advantage of geographical location. If Si Shenxing got drunk one day, she could take the opportunity to make him a fait accompli. By then, the past grievances between them would be written off, and she would no longer have to worry about what Si Shenxing would do to her because of what she had done in the past. But she didn't expect that she saw Xia Zhuozhuo just when she was about to come out for some fresh air. Although the girl not far away was wearing a loose home clothes, her graceful figure was still looming. Her face was not made up, but it was as beautiful as the distant mountains. Her appearance was the type that everyone would like. At just one glance, Anya determined that Xia Zhuozhuo was a great threat to her. A great threat that would snatch Si Shenxing away. Anya narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly and walked towards Xia Zhuozhuo. "Who are you?" Her tone showed the attitude of a hostess. However, when she got closer, she found that this girl was not only beautiful, but also had an obvious sense of oppression, which weakened her momentum all of a sudden. This woman... is not a simple vase. Although Xia Zhuozhuo was in someone else's territory at the moment, and someone had just saved her life. No matter how disdainful she was to Si Shenxing, she still showed due courtesy. "Sorry to bother you, I'm a guest here. I came out to get some fresh air and will leave soon." Xia Zhuozhuo said with a smile. "Guest?" Anya stared at her face and said deliberately, "What guest? How come I don't know?" "Maybe I came here too suddenly." Xia Zhuozhuo answered calmly. Anya obviously didn't want to let her go so easily. She walked around Xia Zhuozhuo and looked at her carefully. "Looking at your dress, you should have just arrived here not long ago, right?" Anya asked tentatively. "Yes, I just arrived today." Xia Zhuozhuo answered frankly. "Then do you know where this is?" Anya continued to ask. "This is Fenglinwan, Si Shenxing's annex." Xia Zhuozhuo said lightly. "Since you know this is Si Shenxing's annex, you should know that this is not a place where people of your status can come in casually." Anya's tone was full of contempt. Xia Zhuozhuo smiled and said, "I was invited by Si Shenxing, so he naturally knows I'm here." "Invited by Si Shenxing?" Anya was obviously a little unconvinced, "Do you have any evidence?" Xia Zhuozhuo took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Anya. The name and contact information of Si Shenxing were clearly printed on the business card. Anya took the business card, looked at it carefully, and then said, "Even if you were invited by Si Shenxing, so what? This is not a place where you can come and go as you please." Xia Zhuozhuo raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What do you mean?" "My meaning is very simple, you leave here now and don't come again in the future." Anya's attitude was very firm. Xia Zhuozhuo sneered and said, "Who do you think you are? Why should I leave?" "Because I am Si Shenxing's woman!" Anya raised her voice with a hint of threat in her tone. Xia Zhuozhuo glanced at her disdainfully and said, "Si Shenxing's woman? Humph, you are not worthy." "What did you say?" Anya's face turned blue with anger at Xia Zhuozhuo's words. "I said you are not worthy of being Si Shenxing's woman." Xia Zhuozhuo repeated, his tone full of sarcasm. Anya couldn't bear it anymore, she raised her hand and hit Xia Zhuozhuo in the face. However, Xia Zhuozhuo grabbed her wrist quickly and twisted it hard, and Anya let go of her hand in pain. "You..." Anya stared at Xia Zhuozhuo with wide eyes. "I warn you, it's better not to act rashly again, otherwise I will be rude to you." Xia Zhuozhuo said coldly. Looking at Xia Zhuozhuo's cold eyes, Anya couldn't help feeling a little timid. But she didn't want to show weakness in front of Xia Zhuozhuo, so she pretended to be calm and said, "Do you think I'm afraid of you? Si Shenxing will not let you go!" "Then let him come to me." Xia Zhuozhuo said nonchalantly. Just then, Huo Gang's voice came from a distance: "Miss Zhuozhuo, are you here? Go over there." Xia Zhuozhuo nodded slightly and said to Huo Gang: "I know, I'll go over there." Then she turned her head to look at Anya, with a sneer on her lips: "It seems that our conversation will come to an end for the time being. But don't worry, I will come back again." After that, Xia Zhuozhuo turned and left. Leaving Anya alone in the same place, trembling with anger. Therefore, Mr. Si failed to tell you in time. Anya quickly realized that Xia Zhuozhuo had misunderstood. Xia Zhuozhuo pursed her lips lightly, and said in a cold voice: "I understand, I will leave immediately and will never disturb your world of two people." After that, she turned and left resolutely. Anya stared at Xia Zhuozhuo's figure walking away, her eyes deep. She knew that she had to act quickly to settle everything, otherwise, she might lose this only chance forever.
