Chapter 220: Chapter 220 Shen Yanhe: I am a Law-Abiding Good Citizen

"You’re thinking too much. I am a law-abiding citizen and would never engage in illegal activities," Shen Yanhe said with a smile, but her eyes were cold.

Hang Mushan: "..." Right, all the illegal work was outsourced to him.

"Fine, boss, whatever you say. After we save the person, then what?"

Shen Yanhe’s eyes narrowed: "After saving him, console him, and tell him to seek revenge against those who harmed him. That’s all."

Hang Mushan: "..."

Using someone else’s hand to dispose of one’s problems?

You really know how to play the game.

"Alright."

"Hmm, next Saturday, set up a time to bring Yan Yi to see me. I will give him the antidote for Old Master Yan," Shen Yanhe said calmly.

Hang Mushan’s eyes brightened and he repeatedly assented: "Yes, yes, yes. You just wait for my good news, huh."

Hang Mushan hurriedly hung up the phone.

Shen Yanhe looked down at her phone, lightly caressed the screen with her thumb, and opened an encrypted album.

The album contained a surveillance video.

This surveillance video was something she inadvertently discovered while handling a client’s task before she married into the Fu Family.

And the content was the entire process of Fu Xiao’s hit-and-run.

Shen Yanhe’s thumb trembled slightly as it rested on the video.

Ultimately, she didn’t have the courage to click on it.

Shen Yanhe closed her eyes briefly.

She exited the album.

Soon.

The net was almost ready to be closed.

-

Time flew by swiftly, and soon it was 8 p.m.

Fu Xiao had arrived early at the summit of Happy Valley, standing at the flat top where people usually took photos of the night sky, munching on a steamed bun with cold water, and occasionally turning his head to look at the road leading up the mountain, waiting for Xia Ran to come.

Below the flat top was a very high valley.

After feeding mosquitoes for half an hour and with his patience nearly depleted, Fu Xiao finally heard footsteps behind him.

He turned around with a fierce expression, ready to curse out Xia Ran.

But someone pushed him hard from behind.

The long-neglected railing let out a shriek.

With a snap, it broke abruptly.

Without any preparation, Fu Xiao’s feet slipped and he tumbled down the mountain.

Fu Xiao: "!!!!"

Fu Xiao’s face was filled with terror as he instinctively flailed his limbs, trying to grab onto something to steady himself.

In his panic, he only managed to grab a thin object, but his body continued to plummet without pause.

On the platform, Xia Ran, dressed in black casual clothes and wearing a sun cap, maintained the position of her hands pushing forward, listening to Fu Xiao’s screams and groans from below as she panted rapidly.

Only after hearing a heavy thud of something hitting the ground did Xia Ran come back to her senses and slowly withdrew her hands.

Her pupils constricted slightly, and she stepped back in a fluster, whispering to herself in a low voice, "This is your own doing, Fu Xiao. If you have to blame someone, blame yourself."

Xia Ran slowly retreated, pressing her sun cap down and hurriedly left the summit.

A black sedan was parked at the foot of the mountain.

Xia Ran’s face was pallid, and she returned to the car sweating profusely.

Waiting for her in the car, Su Lan tenderly tore off two pieces of tissue to wipe her sweat, "Mom has already said, just find someone to deal with him for you, why must you do it yourself?"

Xia Ran’s breathing gradually steadied, taking the tissue from Su Lan’s hand, she wiped the sweat off her forehead, "The more people know about this matter, the more disadvantageous it is for me. It’s better if I do it myself."

Su Lan sighed, about to say something, but her gaze fell on Xia Ran’s neck, she exclaimed and pulled open her collar, "What happened to your neck? How did you get hurt?"

"Just now when Fu Xiao fell, he caught my necklace on my neck," Xia Ran said nonchalantly, brushing away Su Lan’s hand.

Su Lan became anxious, "Then what should we do? If others see Fu Xiao holding your necklace, won’t they suspect you?"

Xia Ran said coolly, "What is there to be afraid of? Just say that Fu Xiao came into my room earlier to threaten me, asking for the things from before, including that necklace, wouldn’t that solve it?"

Xia Ran took a deep breath, easing her tense and cold limbs, and said, "Mom, let’s go home first, I need to take a shower, and there’s a new media press conference waiting for me in three days."

Seeing that she had a plan in mind, Su Lan did not say more and drove off quietly.

No sooner had they left, than, from the bushes beside the flat top, two youths, one tall and one short, dressed in climbing outfits, emerged.

They reached the broken railing and tiptoed to look down.

The taller youth clicked his tongue twice and placed his backpack on the ground, "Tsk tsk, the boss was right on the money; this guy really did run into trouble."

The shorter youth pulled out a rope from the backpack and tied it to a thick tree trunk not far away, "Women are terrifying, she didn’t hesitate at all when she attacked just now."

They were sent by Hang Mushan to follow Fu Xiao.

They arrived ahead of Fu Xiao, hid in the trees, fed mosquitoes for several hours, and also witnessed the entire process of Xia Ran pushing Fu Xiao down.

"Alright, enough chit-chat, hurry down and see if he’s dead. If he’s not, get him to the hospital quickly."

The shorter youth responded, secured the rope to his waist, took up the gear, and slid down from the broken spot.

Halfway down the mountain,

The shorter youth finally spotted Fu Xiao.

He was covered in blood, hanging on a pine tree that had grown out of a rock wall.

"This kid, his life’s really big," the shorter youth clicked his tongue, carefully climbed up, tied the rope around Fu Xiao, and had the taller one pull him up.

As nighttime climbers, they urgently called 120 and got Fu Xiao to the hospital.

After some emergency treatment, Fu Xiao was out of danger.

When Fu Xiao regained consciousness, he was still a bit out of it.

He thought he was surely dead.

The taller youth leaned in close, waving his hand in front of Fu Xiao, "Hey, brother, you awake?"

Fu Xiao’s consciousness gradually returned, and he struggled to sit up, leaning against the headboard, looking at the two youths in climbing gear, "Was it you who saved me?"

"Yeah, we heard your screams, took a look, and pulled you up," the shorter youth said, sitting on a nearby bed, peeling an orange.

"The doctor said you’re lucky to have survived such a high fall with only some abrasions and a few fractures in places."

"Also this, it was taken off your hand," the taller youth said, pulling out a necklace from his pocket and handing it to Fu Xiao.

When Fu Xiao saw the necklace, the memory of being pushed down came back clearly, his expression darkened terribly, gritting his teeth, "Xia Ran!"

He never imagined that Xia Ran would be so bold!

She actually dared to try to kill him!

"Ah, there’s one more thing," the taller youth looked at Fu Xiao with a pitying expression, "The doctor said that because you had previously injured your legs, the impact this time was not insignificant, and it would affect your walking in the future."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xiao’s hatred for Xia Ran deepened, his reddened eyes slowly revealing a hint of madness.

He clutched at the bedsheet tightly.

Xia Ran wanted him dead.

Well, she shouldn’t expect to live either!
