This reminder immediately sparked Han Yaotian’s anger. He raised his eyes and gave Yun Xi a look. Clenching his fists tightly and gritting his teeth, he said, “I won’t give him a chance to enter the Han family!”

“Control your temper. We’re going to eavesdrop on what they have to say, not to catch the adulterers. You’d better not ruin things. If they discover us, you’ll be at a disadvantage!”

“I understand!” Han Yaotian took a deep breath and quickly suppressed the raging fire in his chest.

A little impatience would spoil great plans. He would not mess up his escape route at this time by acting rashly.

“Let’s go! Be quiet!” Yun Xi looked around and then turned around to bring Han Yaotian toward the flowerbed.

!!

The limestone path from the main banquet hall led to the flowerbed. Because the flowerbed was located in the center of the entire area, many forked roads led to it. Yun Xi swept her eyes over the red ribbons hanging from the pine trees on both sides of the path, knowing that these were the markers that Xiaoliu and the others left behind. She followed them to the storage building next to the flowerbed.

Following the drain at the back of the storage building, the two of them treaded lightly toward its main entrance. Just as they got closer, they heard soft voices coming from the main entrance.

Yun Xi pulled Han Yaotian along, taking advantage of the dim light from the streetlights to hide behind the plants at the back of the storage building. She lowered her body and positioned herself behind the wall, listening to the voices coming from the front.

“I knew you wouldn’t believe my identity, so I brought a copy of the old man’s will with me! Look, he is leaving the Han family and Han Corporation to me. If I wasn’t his son, why would he give me these things? I’m the next successor of the Han family, and Han Yaotian is just my stepping stone! If you’re with him, what can he help you with?”
