Wen Xinya was amongst the journalists and was also amongst an agitated group of boycotters, as well as the spectators around. This caused her to be entirely trapped, unable to move.

At this time, car after car of black Audis stopped right outside the entrance of the Health Supplements Association.

The car doors opened, and a group of men in black walked out of the car, their leather shoes making dense clacking sounds on the ground and carrying electric batons in their hands, as they rushed towards the group with an intimidating aura.

Such a formation shocked everyone present.

“Ah—” People shouted out of fear, and those who gathered just to spectate shouted and ran even faster.

A group of men in black rushed towards the middle of the boycotters and hit everyone with their electric batons.

The screams of pain and surprise sounded from all around.

The tightly gathered group from earlier on totally spread out, and everyone ran for their lives, which was an impressive scene.

And someone noticed that these people were measured in their moves, and seemed to only target a particular few, and those people were hit so badly that they were on the floor screaming in pain.

Another group of people also rushed towards the journalists with an angry aura.

The journalists were surprised at such a scene. How dare they do this without a care in the middle of the day on the street? They were totally lawless and arrogant.

Yet, even as they thought this, they were afraid to offend these people, spread and escaped as well.

“Who are they? Why are they so brash?”

“Murdering on the streets, who are these people?”

“Where’s the law in this society?”

“Don’t say anything anymore, these people definitely can’t be offended.”

“In broad daylight, these people are too barbaric.”

Everyone whispered and discussed, speculating about the identity of these people, but nobody dared to speak up against them.

After the crowd dispersed, one of the car doors opened, and a man with the same mask as Wen Xinya stepped out.

Wen Xinya stared blankly before realizing that it was Si Yiyan.

Even before Yan Shaoqing had arrived, he rushed to the scene.

In his mask, Si Yiyan looked even more intimidating and cold, and in his elegant yet strong footsteps, he looked like he could murder everyone around, which inspired fear in everyone around.

His appearance totally shocked everybody around.

Even the whispered voices amongst the masses stopped entirely.

Wen Xinya walked towards him quickly, softly asking, “Why are you here?”

She inevitably thought of Journey to the West, where the fairy Zi Xia said that the person she was in love with was a hero of the earth, saving her by coming on a rainbow-colored cloud.

The situation was extremely cringe-worthy.

Yet, it was hopelessly romantic as well.

Si Yiyan did not reply and only paid attention to the rotten egg on her hair. He furrowed his brows and softly inquired. “Does it hurt?”

The deep and low voice sounded cold yet concerned.

Wen Xinya shook her head and said, “I’m fine, it did not hit me hard.”

Although the impact was really not too painful, there was still some lingering feeling of pain on her head.

However, at this moment where Si Yiyan was clearly angry, she did not dare to tell him the truth.

“I came late!” He carefully pushed the eggshells off her head, then he took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped off the liquids from the egg off her head, taking each of his actions seriously.

Upon receiving news about the protest in front of the Health Supplements Association, he rushed here the moment he could.

Yet, he never thought that he was still one step too late.

Wen Xinya hurriedly said, “I’m fine, I just have to wash my head later.”

In fact, Si Yiyan could not be blamed for coming late, as she could not bother putting up with the attitudes from the other bosses of the Health Supplements Guild, so she left the conference soon after it started.

“This will never happen again.” Si Yiyan guaranteed her.

Wen Xinya looked into his dark eyes and gazed at him intently. His deep and unnerving expression made him looked dangerous. Wen Xinya’s throat dried up and she looked sorrowful.

At this time, a journalist raised his camera and took a picture of him.

“Kacha!” It sounded.

Si Yiyan turned his gaze towards the journalist.

The journalist took gulped and awkwardly stepped backward, his eyes unable to meet Si Yiyan’s gaze. He immediately regretted what he had just done.

A man in black stepped up immediately and held the journalist down.

“What are you doing…” The journalist panicked and shouted.

“Hand it over!” The man in black snatched the camera and threw it down on the floor, destroying it by stepping on it. When it was terribly ruined, he took out the memory card within and released him.

A pair of scary and intimidating eyes then swept across all of the journalists.

The journalists were all in utmost fear and did not dare to even make any small movements.

Wen Xinya worriedly said, “This was supposed to just be a small issue. Such moves will cause a big commotion, which won’t be too good!”

She looked across the area, and the men in black totally suppressed those protesting, regardless of whether they were journalists, spectators or the protesters themselves. All of them were squatting on the floor with their hands over their heads and made no moves.

Si Yiyan’s methods were too aggressive.

“It’s no small matter!” Si Yiyan’s fingers gently caressed the area that was hit with the egg and said, “They threw eggs at you, it’s now a huge deal.”

She was supposed to be under his watch, yet she had met with such a terrible incident. This made Si Yiyan extremely angry.

“But…” Wen Xinya was still worried.

Originally, since Lanxin Corporation and her was in public discussion, today’s happenings would become tomorrow’s headlines.

“They know their limits, they won’t hurt ordinary people. Those who were injured were all people arranged by T-K Corporation. Don’t worry, I will arrange the proceedings, and make sure that this doesn’t get publicized.”

Si Yiyan’s voice was cold and calm but revealed his emotions within.

Wen Xinya’s heart fluttered.

Si Yiyan was someone who dealt with everything his way. With how badly T-K Corporation was attacking her, he would never let it go.

Wen Xinya held his hand and said, “Don’t be angry anymore!”

Si Yiyan looked unperturbed at the moment, but under his calm appearance was anger and an urge for a call to action.

Si Yiyan need not say anything, but his cold and angry emotions were obviously shown.

Wen Xinya softly said, “Believe me, this is their final struggle!”

Si Yiyan pursed his lips slightly and gestured her towards the car.

“Capture those few people and break all of their legs.” Si Yiyan coldly ordered.

He then led her to the car.

She could still hear the noises of punching, kicking and the sounds of the baton on the human body, as well as the sounds of their screams. The journalists and the public who were watching were gripped with fear.

The car slowly started and moved further and further away.

Soon, the scene of violence was left far behind.

Si Yiyan gently took off her mask. Looking at the fluids of the egg on her face, he took out a paper towel and wiped it for her meticulously. “Next time when you go out, have Liu Yanhua go along with you.”

His words always fall on her deaf ears.

Wen Xinya looked guiltily at him and nodded her head, afraid to agitate him at this moment.
