Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Ruthless

"But..." Xiao Qi frowned.

"Are you worried about the Yan Family?" Mu Yiliang raised an eyebrow, "Don’t worry, the Yan Family won’t be affected at all."

How could they not be affected? This is evidence of money laundering! Definitive evidence that could send Yan Sijue to court! Xiao Qi opened her mouth to refute, but seeing Mu Yiliang’s confident smile, she hesitated.

"I’m leaving, you be careful." Mu Yiliang turned around and blended into the night.

"Stop!" Jason shouted angrily, and Xiao Qi deftly grabbed Mu Yiliang’s wrist.

"No matter how many reasons you have, we can’t let you go alone." Xiao Qi stared at her intently.

Mu Yiliang sighed helplessly: "I should have known not to waste words on you. I’m very cautious about my life, don’t think I’d risk so much for that fool Robert unless I’m confident. Most importantly, I know things you don’t, and I’m confident I can at least save my life."

Jason remained unmoved: "Then tell me what you know."

Mu Yiliang’s expression darkened: "If we delay any longer, Robert might not survive! Jason, you say you don’t trust me going alone, but if it were you, would Xiao Qi and I feel assured? Xiao Qi, you too! Does this argument make sense?"

"You..."

"The stuff is with me, none of you can get it!" Mu Yiliang sneered.

"Fine, then I’ll go with you!" Xiao Qi nodded, then quickly turned around, grabbed Jason’s arm, and deftly flipped him to the ground, forcefully striking the back of his neck! Jason didn’t even have time to groan before he passed out.

Mu Yiliang stared wide-eyed at Xiao Qi’s actions, and then saw Xiao Qi nod at her chin: "Let’s go, stop wasting time! Or I’ll knock you out too and search you all over!"

Mu Yiliang was defeated by her and smiled helplessly: "Alright, let’s go."

**********

The sky was just getting light.

Yan Sijue suddenly woke up from his sleep, sat up abruptly, looked around, and didn’t see any trace of Mu Yiliang!

His heart sank heavily!

Where did that woman go? If she moved during the night, he wouldn’t have failed to notice! But he was sleeping so soundly!

This already explained the problem! That woman must have done something to him!

Yan Sijue walked gloomily to the desk and turned on the computer, which had recorded all of Mu Yiliang’s actions. Yan Sijue quickly discovered what she had taken away.

He pressed his lips tightly together, dark eyes swirling with anger, clearly enraged to the extreme!

In the past two weeks, she had shown him more and more of her most genuine self, either lazily acting coy or being lively and sly, to the point that he forgot that this woman had been a headache for many organizations and bosses over the past six years, pulling teeth everywhere, and nothing she did was simple. He had actually regarded her as a harmless and naive rabbit!

But in essence, she was more cunning than a fox, and more ruthless than a wolf!

Even though he had offered his whole heart to her, she still showed no remorse. To rescue her companion, she pretended to be close to him, refusing to trust him, stealing his secrets, without considering that she might push him into an irreparable abyss!

How could she be so heartless! How could she do this to him!

Yan Sijue clenched his fists tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hands, and suddenly slammed a punch onto the laptop! With a loud "bang," the expensive laptop shattered to pieces on the ground.

Blood dripped from his hands onto the carpet, but he was oblivious to it! He clenched his fists even tighter, his teeth starting to clatter!

Beyond fury, there was a deeper sense of agony!

Yan Sijue really wanted to find that woman and dig out her heart to see what it was made of! If she was inherently so heartless, fine, but she could show boundless devotion to others while being so cruel to him!

Yan Sijue closed his eyes hard, forcing himself to calm down, but the anger was like a branding iron, burning painfully in his chest!

It wasn’t yet six o’clock, that woman might not have left A City yet.

Thinking of this, he turned and strode out of the room, making phone calls to arrange things as he went.

No matter what, he couldn’t let that woman just leave like this!

At this moment, Yan Sijue suddenly hated himself immensely!

Even after everything that woman did, he was still most worried about her safety! He thought he was being pathetic!

She thought handing over that evidence would be the end, but things are never that simple!

If she really handed over that evidence to Nie Qing, the consequences could be even more terrifying!

Airport.

The sky was just getting light, and there weren’t many people in the airport. No one noticed Mu Yiliang and Xiao Qi in the corner.

"What did you say?" Xiao Qi lowered her voice and yelled, "You said that evidence is fake?"

Mu Yiliang nodded.

"This... how is it possible?" Xiao Qi was extremely anxious, "Didn’t you say that evidence was stored in Yan Sijue’s private computer?"

"That’s right, but this further proves the point." Mu Yiliang smiled faintly, "Besides those materials, there’s nothing else in it, and the encryption isn’t complicated. With Yan Sijue’s cautiousness, this is almost impossible. Clearly, those computers were just bait."

Xiao Qi hesitated for a moment: "Could it be that he deliberately lured you?"

"No." Mu Yiliang shook her head with a bitter smile, "He’s not that guarded against me... he just did this for fishing, putting some data there might catch many potential threats."

"But... but if this evidence is fake, how can we use it to save Robert?" Xiao Qi was full of disbelief.

"Even though it’s fake, it’s exquisitely forged. Unless someone is particularly familiar with the Yan Family’s financial operations, it won’t be easy to spot the flaws." Mu Yiliang let out a breath, "So, this evidence is just to buy us some time."

Xiao Qi opened her mouth wide, unable to speak for a long time.

She finally understood why Mu Yiliang was so certain that the Yan Family wouldn’t be affected, and why she was so insistent on delivering it herself, refusing to let her or Jason take the risk.

Indeed, as she said, no one knew the Yan Family’s situation better than her. If the other party didn’t discover the evidence was fake, it would be fine. If they did, Mu Yiliang might be able to maneuver, but if it were her or Jason, they definitely wouldn’t be able to say anything.

But, this was still too risky!
