After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies

Chapter 1231: Mutual Cooperation

“No rush, Lin Yuqing is our last trump card, it’s not time to use her yet,” Si Wen said smugly, raising his chin. “As long as we break the cooperation between Xiao Mingyang and Zhang Kaifeng, those two won’t be a threat. Besides, I can contact Xiao Mingyang and work with him to deal with Zhang Kaifeng!”

"You want to join forces with Mingyang?" Xiao Jincheng's expression turned strange as he slowly said, "Your idea is truly insane."

“If I don’t go crazy, how can I help you deal with your grandson?” Si Wen swirled his glass and said, “You know how troublesome Xiao Mingyang is, otherwise you wouldn’t be sitting here!”

Xiao Jincheng's expression turned ugly, and his smile turned cold as he said, "Then I'll wait and see how Young Master Siwen can subdue my disobedient grandson."

After they finished speaking, the two hung up the phone. Xiao Jincheng looked sinister and almost smashed the receiver.

But thinking of Xiao Mingyang's domineering attitude in front of him every day, Xiao Jincheng gritted his teeth and muttered in a deep voice, "Even if it costs the reputation of the Xiao family, I will crush this unfilial descendant!!"

Meanwhile, Si Wen hung up the phone and tilted his head back to gulp down the entire glass of wine.

Upon seeing this, the trusted aide standing behind Si Wen hurriedly asked, "Master, what did the Xiao family say?"

With a bloodthirsty smirk on his lips, Si Wen said in a seductive tone, "What else can I say? Of course, he's at my mercy! Hmph, does he still think he's the master of the Xiao family? Old man, you've been washed up long ago, yet you still refuse to admit you're old. It's laughable!"

"That's right, who can be as brave and wise as you, Master? We all say that following you will surely lead to a glorious future!"

Too lazy to listen to his subordinates' insincere flattery, Si Wen gestured to his confidant to pour himself another glass of wine, and asked slowly, "What news has the Xiao family's inside man sent back recently?"

"Oh, the informant said that Xiao Mingyang and Lin Yuqing have been giving each other the cold shoulder these past few days. They're sleeping in separate rooms, and their relationship is quite strained. They've had several arguments that the whole castle could hear, and the children are crying in fear. It looks like they're about to get a divorce."

"Divorce? If that's the case, it's really a good thing!" Si Wen sipped his wine leisurely, a smug look on his face. Then, changing the subject, Si Wen asked, "Have you found Donna yet?"

"Found them, they've already returned to France."

Si Wen scoffed, "Hmph, a cowardly woman, she'll never amount to anything in her life! But it's good that she's gone, saves me the trouble of dealing with her! She's sensible, she saved herself!"

"Then, Master, can we contact Xiao Mingyang next?"

Thinking about the next plan, Si Wen's eyes lit up, and he became excited. A cruel smile curled his lips as he said, "Contacting Xiao Mingyang is such an important matter, of course I have to handle it personally! Now, I really can't wait to see Xiao Mingyang's liver-colored face!"

……

As night falls, the bars on West Side of London are bustling with activity. Many young women, dressed provocatively, wait there for wealthy young men.

This West Street bar is a notorious money pit, a place where many British celebrities like to relax. Those who can get into the bar are all either rich or noble, while young girls hoping for a romantic encounter can only wait pitifully outside, yearning for a passing VIP to notice their beauty.

At this moment, in a VIP private room at the West Street Bar, Xiao Mingyang sat alone with more than a dozen bottles of beer in front of him, many of which were already empty and lying haphazardly.

Outside, a dance battle had begun on the bar's dance floor. A pair of young, alluring women were energetically swaying their sexy bodies, making the young men below the stage feel their blood boil.

But Xiao Mingyang wasn't interested in those things. He sat alone with a stern face, drinking alone in silence, his eyes filled with a terrifying look.

"I never imagined that President Xiao would have a time when he'd drown his sorrows alone. I thought there would be a long line of beautiful women waiting for your favor!"

The voice, cold and venomous like a viper, made Xiao Mingyang frown. Without even raising his head, he coldly rebuked, "Get out!"

Xiao Mingyang's sour face didn't intimidate Si Wen. Holding a beer, he leaned lazily against the door frame and said with a half-smile, "President Xiao doesn't seem to realize one thing: this nightclub is my property!"

Xiao Mingyang glared fiercely at Si Wen, then swayed as he stood up and said, "What bad luck!"

After saying that, he walked around the table to leave the room.

But as he passed by Si Wen, Si Wen suddenly reached out and grabbed his arm, his smiling eyes filled with a malicious glint.

"President Xiao, since you're already here, how about we have a drink together?"

"How can I possibly drink with someone like you?"

"Although we might not be able to drink together, we should be able to talk about things, because we have common topics, Lin Yuqing!"

Frowning deeply, Xiao Mingyang asked coldly, "What do you want to say?"

Si Wen shrugged and said, "Don't look at me like that, okay? We're friends on the same side now."

"On the same side? Hmph, don't be ridiculous!" Xiao Mingyang said this with deep contempt in his eyes.

"Isn't that right?" Xiao Mingyang's gaze made Si Wen want to gouge out his eyes, but thinking of his plan, he suppressed the urge and coaxed, "We all hate Zhang Kaifeng and want this man to disappear. Just for that reason alone, we can cooperate!"

Clearly, Xiao Mingyang was not swayed by Si Wen's suggestion. Instead, he looked Si Wen up and down with a disdainful smile and said, "I know exactly what kind of person you are. Cooperating with you is like asking a tiger for its skin!"

"Precisely because you understand, you should know even more that if I want to kill someone, I will never give up!"

Seemingly anticipating Xiao Mingyang's rejection, Si Wen wasn't discouraged. Instead, he confidently said, "Zhang Kaifeng has repeatedly plotted against me, and I will never let him get away with it! And since he touched your woman and made you a cuckold, you certainly can't let him leave England alive. Since we have the same enemy and the same goal, why can't we unite? I suppose you also want to deal with that Zhang Kaifeng guy as soon as possible, instead of watching him run around in front of you unscathed every day!"

Looking up at Si Wen, Xiao Mingyang's gaze softened slightly. After a moment's hesitation, he asked, "What's your plan?"

Xiao Mingyang's words deepened Si Wen's smile. He explained slowly, "Zhang Kaifeng is a cautious and careful person. It's difficult to plot against him. But we can start with someone he trusts, such as Lin Yuqing!"
