Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Chapter 1914 - We Will Return Home Immediately

Over at Russia, Si Yiyan’s scheduled date to return home was once again delayed as Wei Che was still at large.

He was still the most worried about Wen Xinya.

He had already gone a few consecutive days without reaching her. Her mobile was turned off whenever he tried to call her, and she had not responded to any of his messages. For the first time in his life, Si Yiyan knew what it was like to stew in the misery of one’s own making.

Luckily, Gu Yuehan was still over there and reported to him the news on Wen Xinya every day. Only then did he feel somewhat more at ease.

"Hello, the number you have just dialed is unavailable at the moment. Please try again later." Si Yiyan’s placid face darkened at the cold, mechanic voice of the answering service.

At this stage, as slow as he was, he should have detected that something was wrong.

Wen Xinya was not the kind of person to be so unreasonable. She might throw some small tantrums now and then, but they were minor and harmless. Instead, the tantrums actually strengthened their feelings for each other and drew them closer.

She might bear a grudge against him for not saying goodbye before leaving, but it would never deteriorate into such a stage.

Si Yiyan felt very uneasy.

"Boss, those military dogs dared to go behind our backs and schemed against us. If not for those bastards, we would have already captured Wei Che." Xu Xianghu charged into the living room. He radiated with intense rage, making him appear even more ferocious and malevolent.

Si Yiyan kept his mobile phone and looked toward Gu Yuexi. "What happened?"

Although Wei Che had escaped Lucifer, again and again, he was still unable to shake off their pursuit. Wei Che suffered serious injuries and was already closely targeted by Lucifer. There was no way he could continue to evade them for long.

Gu Yuexi looked rather grim. "Wei Che snuck onto a tourist bus that plies between Country Z and Russia, and Xu Xianghu and Yueze personally led a team to go capture him. We already had Wei Che in our grasp, but some people from the military side suddenly appeared and ordered us to hand Wei Che over to them. Neither party was willing to give way, and as we were arguing over this, Wei Che injured a number of our comrades and took someone hostage before escaping."

The military wanted Wei Che—were they trying to take credit for Lucifer’s efforts?

After all, Wei Che was a major boss in the Korean-Chinese Alliance. If they could capture Wei Che, the military would gain significant recognition and reward.

But now that Wei Che had escaped with a hostage, it looked like the military had tried to steal an advantage only to end up worse off than before.

Si Yiyan’s face remained placid. "How many were injured? How serious are the injuries?"

"Four men were injured. Wei Che was intent on escaping and so our comrades were not seriously injured. They have already received treatment." There were no deaths, which was already the best-case scenario. To them, the most important thing was still their comrades’ lives.

"No one dares to openly go against me in Russia. Send some men to go settle our score with Lance. I have four comrades hurt and it’s not unreasonable for me to seek redress from him."

Lucifer might not mean much in Russia, but it still held an indomitable authority within the upper-class society here.

This time, the military had gone too far and stepped on his toes. Si Yiyan was utterly enraged.

Not only was he going to demand redress from Lance, but he also wanted him to never get the chance to progress in this world again.

Gu Yuexi nodded.

Yueze spoke up, "Boss, we have lost all traces of Wei Che and he has managed escape again. This does not bode well for the future. What should we do now?"

Wei Che was not only a major boss within the Korean-Chinese Alliance, but he was also the sworn enemy of Lucifer. They would never let him off.

Si Yiyan said calmly, "That’s not a certainty." Following that, he spread open a map and made multiple markings on it with a red marker. "Look, Wei Che’s escape was messy and without aim, as if he was panicking and just focused on fleeing, with no other considerations.

"But these three places are all remote and far from the city, beyond Lucifer’s realm of control. We have limited reach in those areas. In addition, all these places have a common factor."

He marked out various spots on the map.

The faces of the group underwent a major shift.

Over at Russia, there were some people who were in the business of helping criminals illegally escape the borders. Wei Che’s goal was probably to meet up with this gang and secretly escape Russia.

Xu Xianghu’s expression was as venomous and ferocious as a centipede. "Boss, I will immediately lead a team to stop Wei Che. The world is vast. If we allow Wei Che to escape, it would probably be impossible to capture him again."

"No need to rush. Wei Che is already a sitting duck. Make the necessary preparations, we are going back to Country Z now."

Having been in Russia for so long, it was time to head back.

Gu Yuexi nodded, completely unsurprised.

But Yueze and Xu Xianghu were puzzled and had no idea what was going on.

Yueze couldn’t help asking, "Boss, why do you think that Wei Che’s destination is Country Z?" Or are you returning to Country Z just because you miss sis-in-law so much?

Nevertheless, he didn’t dare to ask his latter question.

Boss had been acting strangely these past two days. Even though he didn’t possess Xu Xianghu’s animal-like instincts, he could still guess that boss was having romantic troubles.

Si Yiyan replied calmly, "I remember you all telling me just now that you discovered Wei Che on board a tourist bus that plies between Country Z and Russia. It’s obvious his destination was Country Z all along."

"But his destination has already been exposed. He won’t be so stupid as to insist on going to Country Z!" Xu Xianghu couldn’t resist raising his doubts. His face was puffed up with indignation.

He had been played by Wei Che.

"In this world, there are people who love going against the grain. Wei Che is such a person. His arrogance, his confidence, and his ability to manipulate expectations. This is how he manages to confuse others."

When he first escaped from the Elegance Room, no one had expected him to return to the lions’ den. But he had done exactly that.

Now, Wei Che would probably do the same.

During this period of time, he and Wei Che had been engaged in a game of hide-and-seek. At the end of the day, Wei Che would not be able to escape from the palm of his hand, but he was indeed unable to do much to Wei Che. Wei Che must have already surmised that his movements were being tracked and his actions being analyzed.

As a result, he had purposely thrown out this smoke bomb, to expose his destination to all, so as to create a distraction. But Si Siyan would never fall for such a trick.

Yueze and Xu Xianghu exchanged looks. They suddenly felt very dumb.

Gu Yuexi said in a neutral manner, "But in this world, there are still people like you who don’t play according to the rules and can serve as his bane. Wei Che thinks that since Lucifer’s power doesn’t extend to Country Z, he can escape Lucifer’s pursuit if he flees there. But he doesn’t know that Lucifer is running the Jiayuan Club in Country Z’s Capital city."

Wei Che might be exceptionally shrewd and crafty.

But he would not be able to escape Rex’s all-encompassing reach at the end of the day.

Si Yiyan couldn’t deny that the moment he decided to immediately return home, his anxious heart finally calmed. All that remained was an insuppressible eagerness to return home.

Meanwhile, Wei Che had become a secondary concern.
