Her eyes were closed like before but her ears were sharp open and heard what Chen Juan spoke.

But she missed the seriousness in his voice as she did not give his words much thought.

"What is it?" Her plain tone was making Chen Juan slightly nervous because he doesn't know how she will react after knowing it.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Juan's grip tighter on the steering wheel as his eyes were fixed on the road in front of him.

"Before Rex came inside the park to meet you, I saw him giving some instructions to his people about something. But I had no idea what they were talking about at that time. 

I became curious to know, and went down, slightly closer to them to know about it. What surprised me was, Rex had asked his men to… s..shoot you whenever you had him over his material back!" 

The calm Su Xi, whose eyes were closed did not react at all. But inside her mind, the mess was revolving around.

She had no idea that if today, Rex might have survived then the next target was none other than herself and she might have laid dead.

The thought itself was making her feel shivers. Not because she is afraid to die, but what would have happened to her children if she dies away at this age?!

'My children aren't even settled down till yet, how can I die so easily and leave this world?' This was the reason she was fighting to survive against this oppressive world where everyone is trying to defeat her in this race of game!

"I don't care. I'm still alive and he's dead."

"I know you don't care. But I felt of telling you so that now you can be aware that killing Rex was necessary otherwise, you would have been dead."

Chen Juan's words were clearly stating that if she hadn't killed him at that point, then her lifeless body might lay but Su Xi wasn't interested in giving it much thought because she has more work to do and that work is of handling Su Sing.

She has this confusing conflict in her mind, whether to save Su SIng or not. after all, he is her brother but at the same time, the brother who could betray her once, can do it once again too, right?

But then, she heard Chen Juan's voice from beside her, "Where to drop you?"

After giving it a thought, she replied, "Office. I don't want any suspicion on me. Especially my kids when they will see this news on television." 

Su Xi knew that Ye Shing is quite intelligent and he will keep on asking her questions when she reaches home. But first of all, she has to hide from the limelight.

"Are you sure? I think it would be best for you to take a half-day leave and go home to rest." Chen Juan was genuinely concerned for her. 

Today's events might have taken a toll on her because she isn't like him. 

On the other side, he had seen many murders and shot them at gunpoint because of his professions. But of those were criminals and this time, it was no different.

Su Xu opened her eyes to meet him and passed him an assurance, "I know what I'm doing. So, just leave me at the office, I have some important work to take care of." 

He simply agreed to her request and rode his car in the direction of her company.

But what Su Xi had no idea about was, someone especially was keeping an eye over her works and things, which will result in future threatening too!

….

In the office of Gu Yan.

He stared at the broadcasting knees in front of him with Shi Yu standing beside, whose eyes were also glued on the screen.

"Wasn't this Rex involved with Russians? Then who actually dated to kill him!?" Shi Yu surprisingly asked as the thought made him frown.

At first, Gu Yan had no reply but then, a possibility came to him.

"Maybe Russians only. He might have done something against their conditions and protocols. You do know that my Russians are merciless when it comes to traitors!"

Well, who wasn't aware of it anyway?

A traitor is to be dealt with perfectly so that an example is set for others who might be thinking of betraying the organization.

"Doesn't matter. Our one competitor is at least down and he won't be the hurdle anymore in our future plans, right?" A smile came on Shi Yu's face but Gu Yan remained indifferent like before.

The expressionless face of his was back and Shi Yu can only slap himself for this.

"Alright. You don't want to talk about the underworld so we won't. But just confirm to me this rumor that Elder Madame Gu called you and your daughter up for dinner?" The teasing tone was evident in Shi Yu's voice.

Gu Yan gave him a glare, asking him to shut up his mouth otherwise face his wrath and Shi Yu can only nod his head but curiously waited for his answer.

"Yeah. She asked me and Ye Nian to come over to Gu Mansion to introduce Ye Nian formally to them." Gu Yan replied.

"Then? Are you going to get Ye Nian introduced to the rest of the Gu family too? Who is ready to use any weakness against you?" Shi Yu wasn't concerned about Gu Yan but for Ye Nian.

She was a teenager only, having no idea who selfish the world is and how ruthless and jealous Gu Yan's family members are of him.

"Ye Nian needs to be strong, Shi Yu. At last, you are aware of her identity as well."

"Which identity are you talking about!?" Shi Yu asked with a sudden cold face.
