Chapter 33 Threat
Not long ago, their father let out a shrill scream from his study. They rushed in and saw the room was in a mess, as if it had been through a bloody storm.
Their father was hiding under the table, twitching and shaking. Soon he lost consciousness, talking nonsense, and sweating profusely. His condition was extremely poor. From the outside, he looked more than ten years older than he was an hour ago.
The doctor said truthfully: "Preliminary diagnosis is that the uncle was under too much psychological pressure and suffered a huge shock, which caused him to become like this suddenly. Once he wakes up and receives psychological intervention, he will get better."
"Scared?"
When the eldest son heard this, he hurriedly asked his mother, "Mom, who did Dad meet just now?"
The eldest wife looked bewildered: "No, he said he wanted to read in the study for a while, and I wasn't around..."
As she spoke, she looked at Xiao Yigan's personal butler, "Old Zhang, what exactly happened at that time?"
Old Zhang's face was pale, as if his soul had been lost and had not yet been retrieved.
After hearing the sound, he looked up and said lightly, "She's back."
"Who's back?"
"Yu Fanli."
"ah--"
Almost at the moment when the butler read out the name, the unconscious Xiao Yigan suddenly screamed and sat up, scaring everyone present.
Everyone asked him a lot of questions and the doctor quickly examined him again.
But he drove them away, leaving only his wife behind.
His wife's face was solemn and she asked worriedly, "Did you really see her?"
Xiao Yigan's hands were still shaking. He subconsciously pulled up the quilt to protect his neck. His face was pale and he looked completely exhausted. "It's her, it's her!"
The wife was furious: "That wild Taoist priest has no skills at all! Didn't he say he could just burn the place down and put an end to it all?"
Xiao Yigan shook his head, his eyes filled with deep shock. "It's not that his cultivation isn't good enough, it's that he's too powerful. Yu Fanli relied on her spiritual power to be fearless, so she was able to escape and find me..."
Even at this point, his voice was still trembling.
"Him? Who?"
Xiao Yi pursed his lips tightly, his eyes flashing with a gleam: "The girl that the third brother brought back is Shen Zhiyi!"
"Her? No way, she looks like an ordinary girl."
"That's what Yu Fanli said, and this incident was caused by her. There's no one else to blame except her!"
"Okay, it must have been the Fourth Brother who ordered it! I knew he wouldn't be willing to let you inherit Hongde!"
Xiao Yi shook his head: "Don't think too much about things without evidence. First arrange for the girl to come see me. I don't believe she will go against the Xiao family!"

As soon as the sun rose, Shen Zhiyi was woken up by Yu Fangeng.
He broke into the room, holding up his phone and laughing as he said to her, "It worked! Miss Shen! Someone reported Xiao Yigan by name, alleging he bribed multiple people to cover up a murder. This person is the forensic doctor who examined my sister! She said Xiao Yigan sent someone to assassinate her, so she resolutely reported it. She has a lot of evidence, and the moment the video was released, it caused an uproar."
Shen Zhiyi pulled the quilt up slowly and said slowly: "Don't be happy too soon."
Yu Fanggeng's smile gradually stiffened.
As expected, in less than an hour, many news and videos disappeared inexplicably, and the hot searches also evaporated, just like before.
Any account that made relevant remarks was inexplicably blocked within a short period of time.
Many people reported that their comments could not be displayed after trying several times.
Yu Fanggeng pounded the ground in despair and roared, "Why can't I beat him?"
The world dominated by capital is filled with a foul odor.
Shen Zhiyi handed him a piece of bread, and said in a cold and calm voice: “Fill your stomach first.”
"How can I still eat this? The evidence is all there, the witnesses and evidence are all there, but I still can't beat him!"
"You don't believe me?" Shen Zhiyi looked at him.
He slowly raised his head when he heard the voice, and was gradually infected by the calm and steady aura of Shen Zhiyi, and his impetuous heart temporarily calmed down.
Seeing that he was really pitiful, Shen Zhiyi said one more thing: “In two hours, the matter will be settled.”
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Yu Fangeng went out to check, and then hurried back to report to her: "Miss Shen, Xiao Yigan wants to see you!"
At this time, Shen Zhiyi had changed his clothes and wore a pair of white headphones around his neck. Unlike ordinary headphones, the shape of this pair of headphones was more complicated and looked a bit strange.
Before he could observe, Shen Zhiyi walked past him: "If you're bored, go to my smurf account and watch my past videos."
She went out quickly.
Yu Fanggeng couldn't help but murmur her words, and after tasting the deep meaning, he immediately entered the short video software and clicked on her small account avatar to view previous videos.
The first few minutes were nothing special.
It wasn't until he saw her profile picture that his expression suddenly changed.
**
The meeting place was in Xiao Yigan’s villa, in the same community, but in the opposite direction.
After the assistant led her in, he closed the door and stood guard outside.
The house was very quiet inside and outside, with no noise to be heard.
She walked through the entrance hall and entered the front hall, and saw Xiao Yigan sitting alone on the coffee table making tea.
"Miss Shen is here, please take a seat." He was unexpectedly polite, with a kind smile.
Shen Zhiyi sat down on the cushion opposite him, his face expressionless and normal: "Boss Xiao asked me to come here, what do you want to talk about?"
"Don't worry, this is the best Da Hong Pao, try it."
"If it's just tea, I'm sorry I can't join you. I'm still working."
Just as she was about to stand up, the person opposite her dropped his smile and spoke in a cold, hard voice, "You were the one who orchestrated all the heated discussions about me online these days, weren't you?"
Shen Zhiyi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and her voice was nonchalant, a little bored, "I'm just a female student in her early twenties, President Xiao is too flattering me."
Her fingers brushed against the headphones around her neck, straightening their angle slightly.
Xiao Yigan didn't pay attention to her little movements. His face was dark and he cast a sinister look at her: "It doesn't matter who took the lead. Since the matter was caused by you, it should end with you. Miss Shen, I rarely give people chances. Think carefully about what to do."
"I'm stupid and don't understand what Mr. Xiao means."
Xiao Yigan's patience was worn out. He sneered, threw the porcelain cup aside, and glared at Shen Zhiyi coldly: "Release the video immediately to clarify that the previous live broadcast was just a show that you exaggerated. Apologize to me formally. If the storm can be calmed down smoothly, I can forgive the past. Otherwise, you and your father will never have a peaceful birthday for the rest of your life!"
Shen Zhiyi lowered his head and smiled, "Yeah, I understand, Mr. Xiao is threatening me."
Xiao Yigan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking very scary.
However, Shen Zhiyi, like an ignorant girl with no concept of danger, held her chin up with an innocent look and asked him softly: "If it's a rumor, Mr. Xiao can call the police to arrest me. Why bother you to deal with it personally? Could it be that what is said on the Internet is true? You really killed Yu Fanli?"
