Chapter 429: Chapter 429: I Never Shake Hands with Others

Yan Sinian knew she wasn’t listening just by looking at her.

But what could he do? He didn’t have the heart to hit her and scolding her only led to her playing dumb.

His own junior sister whom he’d raised could only be indulged.

Anyway, as long as he kept an eye on her regularly, she wouldn’t cause any serious trouble.

The department that the Cui brothers belonged to was very efficient; by the next morning, a cultivator had arrived at Zhuancheng.

Cui Wu was tied up with other matters and couldn’t get away, so he sent a junior who was skilled in tracking scents.

The dispatched Si Xi was very young, only seventeen, the age when girls are at their prettiest and most delicate.

Before departing, Cui Wu gave her detailed instructions, "Despite being close to you in age, Senior Yan’s Cultivation Base is unfathomably deep. You must be respectful when you meet him and not be rude."

Si Xi’s family was also highly respected within the Xuanmen, and she was quite surprised upon hearing this.

"Someone close to my age? Are you joking, sir? I have never heard of this senior before."

Cui Wu snorted, "There are countless masters in this vast world. All you kids think too highly of yourselves. You won’t realize there are always greater people out there until you suffer a setback."

Si Xi stuck out her tongue but didn’t talk back, though she didn’t quite agree in her heart.

She flew overnight and arrived at Zhuancheng with red-rimmed eyes. She headed straight to a phone booth to call the Yan Family.

It just so happened that Yan Sinian answered the phone.

"Senior, hello, I am dispatched by Director Cui. My name is Si Xi, and I have just landed at Zhuancheng Airport."

Si Xi’s intention was to have him pick her up, a good opportunity to get the lay of the land.

To her surprise, Yan Sinian simply responded with an indifferent "Oh" and hung up the phone.

Si Xi stared incredulously at the receiver, not expecting the senior to be so detached.

She had no choice but to contact the local police chief first, briefing him on the general details of several cases.

Then she headed straight to the hospital.

Si Xi was eager to see for herself what this so-called exalted senior looked like.

But on inquiry, she was told, "Dr. Xiaoyan’s specialist appointments are hard to secure; even if you queue now, you’ll have to wait half a month unless it’s an emergency that can’t be treated at other hospitals."

Si Xi was momentarily speechless.

Her organization was a special national department that dealt with cases beyond the reach of ordinary mortals.

Because they were both dangerous and covert, many laws couldn’t constrain them, and their status was comparatively transcendent.

Their salary was much higher than that of typical government departments.

Firstly because the fatality rate was high, it was a hazardous occupation.

Secondly, it required specialized skills that ordinary people didn’t possess.

Who would have thought that a renowned figure, rather than joining them or secluding himself from the world, would choose to become a doctor—a profession both difficult and exhausting...

What was he thinking?

Si Xi grew increasingly curious. Using a Xuanmen Technique, she stealthily made her way into the office and finally cornered Yan Sinian.

It was noon, and Yan Sinian had just opened his lunchbox when he suddenly frowned.

"Come out."

Si Xi, who was using her Stealth Technique, didn’t expect to be discovered so quickly and had to show herself, looking rather sheepish.

Upon seeing Yan Sinian’s true appearance, she was taken aback.

He was even younger and... more handsome than she had imagined.

Si Xi’s face involuntarily flushed red.

Yan Sinian, however, did not look pleased, "I’ve told Cui Wu that I would provide information and you all would handle it. Don’t disturb me unless it’s something special."

Si Xi hurried to explain, "I’m sorry, Senior, I wanted to pay my respects to you."

With her attractive features and decent Cultivation Base, she was pursued by many young talents within Xuanmen.

She had never met someone as straightforward as Yan Sinian.

This only ignited a subtle defiance in Si Xi’s heart.

The girl moved closer and extended her hand in the manner of ordinary mortals, "Hello, Senior. Allow me to introduce myself again. I am Si Xi, the eldest daughter of the Si family head. I hope to learn much from you, Senior."

Her hand was well-defined, slender and beautiful, with nails that had a soft pink sheen.

Yan Sinian, however, merely glanced at it coldly, "I never shake hands with people."
