"I have my ways," Jennie replied calmly.

But, even though Manoban was the leader of the industry and Lisa was the King of Entertainment, Master Ni was still someone from the underworld. So, Yang Xi knew as well as everyone that Master Ni appeared​ clean on the surface, but was involved in plenty of illegal activities. It's just a shame that she couldn't get a hold of any evidence against him.

That's why the police were so excited when they first captured her, expecting that they'd get something out of her.

Unfortunately for them, Yang Xi had nothing. She simply lied to them, hoping for a chance at life. Because for some reason, she felt that the Jennie that despised her, wouldn't truly hurt her and would instead help her...

Of course, Jennie's way of helping Yang Xi wasn't merely to keep her alive. She was going to make Master Ni completely disappear from the underworld. Otherwise, with Master Ni's temper, he would definitely seek revenge on Jennie and Lisa. Someone as smart as Jennie would never expose herself to any risks; it wasn't in her character to do so.

"Actions speak louder than words. You have an obstacle right before you. How are you going to stop that cold-blooded killer from taking me away?"

Jennie simply looked at Yang Xi without responding straight away. After a few minutes, she finally asked, "Does that person kill people on behalf of Master Ni?"

"I'm not entirely sure. All I know is, he's helped him conceal a lot of illegal activities."

After this, the two women did not say any more. Yang Xi simply watched as Jennie made one phone call after another. Finally, the assistant lost his patience and began knocking on the door, "Xiao Xi, Master Ni has made a few phone calls and told you to hurry!"

Yang Xi looked towards the door, but Tangning held down her icy cold hands and shook her head calmly, "Ignore him."

At this moment, Yang Xi had no idea what Jennie was thinking. She was simply terrified.

"Xiao Xi, Master Ni is on his way. He is personally coming to pick you up..."

After a few moments of silence in the private room, Jennie finally stood up and walked over to the door. As she opened it, she took a quick glance at Lisa.

"Let's go, Xiao Xi..."

"Since Master Ni is already on his way. I would like to give my greetings," Jennie offered.

"Miss Kim, please don't test your limits," the man's words obviously contained a sense of warning. "We are from different sides of the fence, let's not make things difficult for each other. There's no need to put yourself in danger over someone that once tried to hurt you."

"It's because she tried to hurt me that I want to personally deal with her."

Hearing this, the man felt that negotiating with a woman was a waste of his energy. So, he turned to Lisa instead, "President Manoban..."

"My wife is the boss," Lisa sat to one side with a king-like presence that could not be ignored. Yet, when he spoke, the assistant didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He was willing to support Jennie no matter what she wanted to say or do.

In other words, even if Jennie wanted to kill someone, he would be there to help her bury the body.

A moment later, the cafe became even more crowded with the addition of Master Ni; making the atmosphere quite tense.

"It seems like we have quite a crowd today. Does President Manoban also have an interest in Yang Xi?"
