You Are Not Qualified To Make A Deal With Me

"What?" Bai Ning's eyes widened when he heard those words, then he became impatient. "Miss, if you don't want to die, then leave right now."

Fourth Master's mother was his bottom line.

This woman dared to bring her up like a joke? She really didn't want to live anymore!

"If you don't want to die, just go!"

"Tell Huo Siye that I know his mother's whereabouts." Shen Xingkong stood her ground. She wasn't leaving. She had to see Huo Siye for her plan to work.

"Hey, you—"

Before Bai Ning could finish, the door behind him suddenly opened. His expression changed instantly, and he bowed respectfully.

"Come in."

Huo Siye only said two words before turning back into the room.

Shen Xingkong clenched her fists, forced herself to stay calm, and stepped inside.

Inside the Presidential Suite

Huo Siye sat on the sofa under the crystal chandelier.

His sharp brows, deep and dangerous eyes, straight nose, and thin lips gave him an unapproachable look. Dressed in a classic black Armani suit, he exuded wealth and power.

A chilling pressure surrounded him, making Shen Xingkong feel suffocated.

He slowly lifted his gaze and looked at her. His deep, unreadable eyes darkened like a storm brewing.

"The last person who approached me with this excuse is already dead."

His voice was cold and sharp, sending a chill down her spine.

Shen Xingkong trembled but still forced herself to speak. "But what I'm saying is the truth."

"Oh?"

His dark eyes were like a bottomless abyss, filled with hostility and deadly danger.

"Your mother has a butterfly-shaped birthmark on her back."

"As long as you do what I say, I'll tell you where she is."

Huo Siye narrowed his eyes.

"Remember one thing."

"What?"

"Don't give me a reason to send you to hell."

For a moment, Shen Xingkong felt an overwhelming fear. But since she had already chosen to step onto this path, she had to be strong.

"Don't worry, I won't! But after it's done, you have to promise me one thing!"

"You think you're qualified to make a deal with me?" Huo Siye sneered.

"Whether I'm qualified or not doesn't matter right now." Shen Xingkong forced a smile. "Fourth Master, I promise you won't regret this."

Huo Siye was a powerful and ruthless man.

Shen Xinai thought she could handle him?

Of course, Shen Xingkong wasn't sure if she could either.

But in her past life, she knew that in just a few years, Huo Siye would take over the entire Huo family. He would be the one who controlled everything.

A man like him should have no shortage of women.

Yet, even though Huo Qingyan had liked him so much, no matter how hard she tried to seduce him, he never spared her a single glance.

Could it be that he couldn't... or did he—

Like men?

A man as powerful as Huo Siye must have some dark, twisted preferences.

Shen Xingkong's curious gaze made Huo Siye frown. This woman was arrogant.

"Tell me. What do you want me to do?" Huo Siye sneered like a demon king.

Hearing his question, Shen Xingkong knew she had succeeded.

She smiled. "I'll borrow Bai Ning for something."

At the Banquet

Yundu University of Communication was one of the top schools in the country. Their journalism and communication programs were famous, producing top-tier graduates known as the "Yunshi Reserve Army."

Shen Xinai had been accepted as the top student in her major. This was a huge honor for the Shen family, so naturally, they had to throw a grand celebration.

Her mother, Dong Ruzhu, booked an entire floor of the Park Hyatt Hotel to entertain the most powerful figures in Yundu.

The Shen family wasn't the wealthiest in Yundu, a city filled with tycoons. But Shen Zhizhou, Shen Xinai's father, was the former president's son-in-law. And her mother, Dong Ruzhu, was the younger sister of the third wife of the powerful Huo family's patriarch.

With these two connections, the Shen family's status had soared.

Though Shen Xinai was the granddaughter of a former president, she was technically only a stepdaughter in the Shen family. But everyone knew that Mrs. Shen treated her even better than a real daughter.

Tonight, she was the center of attention.

Surrounded by a group of young ladies, Shen Xinai basked in their admiration, her vanity completely satisfied.

After several rounds of drinks, she was slightly drunk.

"Miss Shen, my Fourth Master is here to invite you," Bai Ning said in a low voice, clearly reluctant.

The moment Shen Xinai heard "Fourth Master," her eyes lit up.

She glanced at the noble young ladies around her and raised her voice, pretending to be shy.

"Brother Siye is looking for me? Didn't he say he was on a business trip and couldn't come? So this was a surprise? Ugh, he's really too much..."

Bai Ning got goosebumps from her words.

Huo Siye's name alone was enough to make all the rich young women in the room swoon.

He had always been cold and never kept any woman by his side. Now, hearing Shen Xinai call him "Brother Siye" so affectionately, the envy in the room was obvious.

It really wasn't fair.

They were all daughters of prestigious families, yet Shen Xinai was the only one who had Huo Siye's attention!

"I'm so jealous!"

"Where is Brother Siye? Take me to him quickly. What did you say? He brought me a gift? Aww, why is he so sweet..." Shen Xinai blushed, acting like a girl drowning in love.

Bai Ning, who had seen all kinds of things working for Huo Siye, felt like throwing up.

But Fourth Master had given an order.

"Please come with me."

"Hmm!" Shen Xinai suppressed her excitement.

Fourth Master must be in love with her!

She was finally going to marry Huo Siye!

She wasn't dreaming!

As the guests watched Shen Xinai leave with Bai Ning, they started whispering.

The old patriarch of the Huo family was getting old, and the battle between the second and third branches of the family had become fierce.

But everyone knew that the one most likely to inherit everything was Huo Siye, the son raised by the main wife!

And Mrs. Shen was also the elder sister of the Third Wife.

Could it be that Huo Siye and the Third Branch were going to team up against the Second Branch?

Dong Ruzhu, who was watching from the side, was very satisfied.

She knew that useless girl, Shen Xingkong, wouldn't dare to mess things up.

Top Floor

Shen Xinai followed Bai Ning upstairs, her heart pounding with excitement.

Shen Xingkong had already given Huo Siye the wine. When she went inside now... Would he lose control and take her like a beast?

She felt hot all over just thinking about it.

Seeing Shen Xinai's excited face, Bai Ning felt disgusted.

How could President Liang Jinheng have such a shameless granddaughter?

"Miss Shen, please go in."

"Your name is Bai Ning?" Shen Xinai asked proudly.

"Yes."

Shen Xinai smirked. "Next time, if you disrespect me again, I'll have you thrown into the mountains to feed the wolves!"

Bai Ning: "What?"

"I'm Mrs. Huo Siye, not Miss Shen!"

Bai Ning: "..."

This woman was completely delusional.
