Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

With the successful completion of Plan S, the anti-corruption strategies were underway. It was just a matter of time before the Korean-Chinese Alliance was eradicated from China.

Si Yiyan closed the book in his hands and placed it on the tea table.

Xu Xianghu leaned in curiously and asked, “Boss, what are you reading?”

Following that, he retrieved the few rather impressively thick books stacked on the tea table. “Pregnancy Manual: The Full Guide from Conceiving to Labor”—what was this—”A Visual Handbook of The 40 Weeks of Pregnancy”—what the hell? “The Baby Book by William Sears”—what nonsense was this?

The tea table was actually filled with books related to pregnancy and parenting. Little Hu was shocked speechless as he looked at his own boss with his mouth hung open and only managed to recover after a long while.

Yueze was also in slight disbelief as he pointed to the books stacked on the tea table and asked loudly, “Boss, don’t tell me that you’ve already finished reading these books!”

The charismatic, charming, handsome, dignified, majestic, talented, wise, strategic, peerlessly heroic (a thousand more words have been removed) boss in their eyes actually read such stuff—this was simply refreshing their bottom line.

Si Yiyan said mildly, “Yup, I can memorize them!”

These books regarding pregnancy and parenting were global bestsellers.

They introduced the growth of the baby according to its gestational age, the changes in the expecting mother’s body, as well as common issues or noteworthy topics of the respective periods—they were very handy.

Due to the condition of Xinya’s body, she had gotten it tougher than others during pregnancy and frequently felt some discomfort. They couldn’t simply rush to the hospital or look for Old Mr. Du for everything—hence, by understanding more, they would know how to resolve some minor discomfort and need not panic.

Yup, Almighty Si was used to controlling everything and disliked the feeling of losing control and being led by the nose.

Yueze was speechless. He looked at his own boss and suddenly felt disillusioned.

Gu Yuehan was already rather calm because Ninth Young Master had instructed him to purchase these books.

And Gu Yuexi browsed the pages of the book and looked all interested. “Not bad, not bad—there’s potential and future.”

The potential of being his wife’s slave and the future of being controlled by her.

Of course, Si Yiyan could tell what he meant and said mildly, “What’s the progress of the cracking of the chip placed in Wei Che’s body?”

After Wei Che died, when their subordinates were examining his body, they found a microchip under the skin of his neck area. The chip was very well hidden and even the most advanced equipment could hardly detect it. Furthermore, it was fitted with a self-destructing program.

If Wei Che was captured or killed by them, perhaps this chip would have ceased to exist. However, as Wei Che was badly poisoned and was limited in his movement, he totally couldn’t activate the self-destructing device on himself. Thus, the chip survived.

If they were right, this chip was the most secretive and confidential chip within the Korean-Chinese Alliance. If they could crack it, the Korean-Chinese Alliance would cease to be of any threat.

However, the security settings of the chip were rather advanced, so much so that even their most talented people actually couldn’t crack it immediately.

Although he didn’t manage to kill him personally, the fact that they could make use of Xia Ruya’s murder of Wei Che to eradicate the Korean-Chinese Alliance, a deadly tumor of the world, was still a pleasant surprise.

Gu Yuexi set aside the book in his hand and answered, “We’ve already cracked a part of it and still need three more days to complete the job.”

This chip was very important to Lucifer. If they could successfully crack it and obtain the information inside, they would be able to eradicate the entire Korean-Chinese Alliance.

However, this chip was too cumbersome.

Every password combination had a self-destructing program which would be automatically activated upon forceful breaking, taking with it all the information within it.

Thus, they had yet to crack it even after receiving the chip for a week.

“No rush for now. Although the Korean-Chinese Alliance hasn’t infiltrated America deeply, they hold massive firearms business and are using it to control the situation in the Middle Eastern countries with the intention of benefiting from the turmoil.”

Since ancient times, national calamities and wars were the most profitable.

The Korean-Chinese Alliance was precisely making use of the firearms that they held to make money by providing weapons to radical groups in some smaller countries.

“And China is the core of their powers, mainly responsible for capital turnover—by legitimizing the money on their hands through money laundering and other corporate means.”

In the past, Black Sunday was an important organization responsible for helping them to launder their money.

Ever since he destroyed Black Sunday, they conjured up an entertainment city with great anticipation and even brought the Zhang Corporation that the Zhang Family had managed for many years to the table. As the entertainment city project was progressing too slowly, they had supported the Li Corporation while wanting to invade China’s health supplements market through T-K Corporation.

However, unexpectedly, their many actions actually all fell apart eventually under Xinya’s hands.

Si Yiyan looked at Gu Yuexi and said, “Plan S took out their powers in America and China which is akin to destroying their massive ammunition as well as finances. Now is the opportune moment to eradicate their remaining powers in the Asia Pacific, Middle Eastern, and Eastern European areas.

Given that Xinya was pregnant, it wasn’t convenient for him to leave, so he could only hand this to Gu Yuexi.

Fortunately, they were merely some leftover powers that Gu Yuexi could handle.

Gu Yuexi nodded. “Just leave this matter to me.”

It was a matter of great importance—if they didn’t manage to strike the iron while it was hot, pursue the enemy troops in retreat, and eradicate those leftover powers, when they came together, it would be harder to deal with them.

Previously, when Qin Country destroyed Chu Country, Overload Chu, Xiang Yu, had precisely made use of the leftover troops of Chu Country, gradually strengthened his powers, and eventually overthrew the entire Qin Dynasty.

It was necessary to get rid of them completely to prevent any future repercussions.

Gu Yuexi left with Xu Xianghu and Yueze.

Gu Yuehan said, “After being out at sea for many days, Xia Ruya has arrived in Taiwan and we’ve already confirmed her whereabouts. Should we…”

Not long after Xia Ruya set sail, they had already tracked her down.

“Ignore her, let her escape till she has nowhere else to go.”

Before a cat captured its prey, it always liked to play with it and, when the prey was forced to a corner, it would eat it up. He was now playing a game of cat and mouse.

Gu Yuehan nodded in agreement.

“Additionally, hasten the wedding preparation and not be negligent in any way.”

After Xinya’s pregnancy was discovered, he had already started making arrangements for the wedding. Now that her pregnancy had stabilized, naturally, it was better to hold the wedding as soon as possible.

By the time the pregnancy progressed and she got bigger, she wouldn’t be able to take any more hardship.
