What had gotten into Yan Xi?
Why was she saying such a thing out of the blue?
Xiang Jing Chen asked, "Sister, do you know something? Why are you asking this?"
"You tell me first if you know or not."
"I have heard of a mysterious organization that specializes in researching such drugs. They can control humans, driving them insane. But this organization is too secretive and too fantastical, making people wonder if it's real or not. I'm starting to doubt if such an organization even exists."
Hearing Xiang Jing Chen's words, Yan Xi knew that Fu Yan Ting had been telling the truth.
Insanity truly existed in this world.
However, since Xiang Jing Chen didn't know about this organization, Yan Xi realized that investigating it would be difficult.
Seeing Yan Xi's silence, Xiang Jing Chen became even more curious and asked, "Sister, what's wrong? Don't tell me you suspect your aunt is involved?"
Yan Xi remained silent.
Xiang Jing Chen grew more curious. What did this matter have to do with Yao Wan Qi, that Yan Xi would ask such a question?
Yan Xi couldn't stay in Yan Cheng for another moment. She decided to pack her bags and leave.
At that moment, Fu Yan Ting was selecting jewelry for Yan Xi when he received a call from Xin Yi, who informed him that Yan Xi was packing her bags and preparing to leave.
Upon hearing Xin Yi's words, Fu Yan Ting's expression changed drastically. Based on his understanding of Yan Xi, her destination when packing was self-evident.
Fu Yan Ting couldn't let Yan Xi risk her life.
That organization was not something Yan Xi could provoke.
Let alone that organization, Yan Xi wasn't a match for Old Mr. Yao either.
If Yan Xi went back now, she would be walking into her own death.
Fu Yan Ting could not stand by and watch Yan Xi walk into the tiger's mouth without intervening.
He hadn't expected that despite all he had told her, Yan Xi still didn't trust him. Just because he said the time wasn't right and she couldn't go back to save Yao Wan Qi, Yan Xi was preparing to act alone.
Thinking of this, Fu Yan Ting felt a surge of anger.
He instructed Xin Yi to keep an eye on Yan Xi and report her every move to him.
He, too, lost the mood to choose jewelry.
That woman truly never gave him a moment's peace.
Fu Yan Ting even doubted how Yan Xi managed to survive the five years she was away from him.
Fu Yan Ting strode out of the jewelry store.
Seeing the major client leave, the salesperson quickly chased after him and asked, "Mr. Fu, the jewelry you were selecting..."
"Pack up all the jewelry in your store for me."
After speaking, Fu Yan Ting felt that just giving jewelry was a bit cliché.
He was different from He Yun, who was so vulgar.
Fu Yan Ting paused for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll just buy the jewelry store."
The salesperson's emotions felt like a roller coaster ride.
When Fu Yan Ting said "forget it," she thought he no longer wanted the jewelry. But who would have thought that in the next second, Fu Yan Ting would say he wanted to buy the store.
She wondered who this jewelry from Fu Yan Ting was for.
That woman must be so happy.
To be doted on by a man as handsome and wealthy as Fu Yan Ting.
Fu Yan Ting drove away. Midway, he received a call from Xin Yi, who informed him that Yan Xi had gone to the airport.
Without a doubt, he knew why Yan Xi was going to the airport.
Fu Yan Ting couldn't care less. He quickly drove to the airport to catch up with Yan Xi.
Upon arriving at the airport, he saw Xin Yi and other bodyguards surrounding Yan Xi. Yan Xi appeared to be extremely angry.
Fu Yan Ting walked over.
When Yan Xi saw Fu Yan Ting, her anger intensified, and she directed all her fury towards him.
Yan Xi spoke, "Fu Yan Ting, you've come at the right time. I warn you, tell your subordinates to leave, or don't blame me for being impolite."
"Xi Xi, I've told you so much, why won't you believe me?"
"Heh, what did you tell me? Can I believe what you say?"
Yan Xi looked at Fu Yan Ting, showing him no mercy.
Fu Yan Ting's expression turned extremely grim.
He looked Yan Xi up and down.
Yan Xi, however, avoided his gaze.
Fu Yan Ting signaled to Xin Yi and said, "Take Miss Yan back."
Xin Yi nodded and, holding Yan Xi, prepared to walk out of the airport.
Yan Xi knew that Xin Yi was acting under Fu Yan Ting's orders. Getting angry at Xin Yi wouldn't solve the problem.
She looked at Fu Yan Ting coldly and cursed him loudly.
But Fu Yan Ting paid no attention to Yan Xi.
He walked directly out of the airport.
Upon returning to the villa, Yan Xi began to resist, refusing to eat or drink, and threatened Fu Yan Ting to let her leave.
Fu Yan Ting was at his wit's end. He sighed helplessly and said, "Xi Xi, give up on that idea. You can't go anywhere without my permission."
"Fu Yan Ting, this is confinement. I can sue you."
Fu Yan Ting, however, was unconcerned by Yan Xi's temper.
He looked at Yan Xi and suddenly said with great seriousness, "Xi Xi, it's not that I don't want to help you, but it's truly too dangerous outside right now. Only by staying by my side are you safest."
Yan Xi believed that perhaps Fu Yan Ting was telling the truth.
But even so, Yan Xi couldn't ignore Yao Wan Qi's life or death.
Yan Xi looked at Fu Yan Ting, showing him her vulnerable side for the first time.
Yan Xi pleaded softly, "Fu Yan Ting, please, I beg you. If you won't help me, fine, but you can't restrict my freedom. I really have to save my mother."
"Xi Xi, I know you want to save your mother. I can guarantee that I will help you, but not now. Going now will truly alert the enemy, and not only will you not be able to save your mother, but you will also be trapped. Think of Zi Tong. Do you want to watch Zi Tong lose you?"
"Then what do you want me to do? That's my mother. I can't just watch her like this and do nothing."
If Yan Xi hadn't known the truth before, it would have been fine. But now that Yan Xi knew the truth, she couldn't ignore Yao Wan Qi's life or death.
Seeing Yan Xi's persistence and her strong desire to save Yao Wan Qi, Fu Yan Ting said, "How about this? I promise you, I will go to Kyoto to discuss a business deal with Old Mr. Yao. Then I can contact Xiang Jing Chen. We can coordinate from within and create an accident to rescue your mother. But this must not be known by anyone else, okay?"
As long as Yao Wan Qi could be rescued, it was enough for Yan Xi.
Therefore, when Fu Yan Ting said these words to Yan Xi, Yan Xi agreed without a second thought.
Fu Yan Ting knew that going to Kyoto this time would surely expose him. But there was no choice. For Yan Xi, it didn't matter if his identity was exposed.
