Chapter 484

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Wen Xinya heaved a sigh of relief since everything had been settled. Before they left, the Xu Family gifted them with a set of Four Treasures of the Study. Although Wen Xinya did not know much about antiques, she could tell from the look of surprise on Si Yiyan’s face that that set of Four Treasures of the Study was much more valuable than the one that was put up for auction.

“I heard that Miss Xin is currently learning calligraphy. This set of Four Treasures of the Study has been a prized collection of my father’s. It’s a gift that will complement Miss Xin.”

Everyone knew the hidden meaning in Xu Qingqiu’s words.

Although she was indirectly the cause of the brawl between Si Yiyan and Anatoli, the Xu Family, who were the organizers of the auction, had failed to stop the brawl. Si Yiyan was the one at fault, though the Xu Family was too, part to blame.

On the other hand, Anatoli was injured during the auction held by the Xu Family and hence, the Xu Family would definitely have to bear some of the responsibility. However, Si Yiyan had to shoulder all of the responsibility and hence, the Xu Family definitely had to express their gratitude towards him.

On top of that, the Xiasi Group was extremely powerful and wealthy, yet mysterious. Besides, it was the first time that Si Yiyan had ever shown up with a female partner whom he seemed to value greatly. After finding out that Anatoli had ruined Si Yiyan’s plan to buy the Four Treasures of the Study for Wen Xinya, the Xu Family decided to suck up to her and Si Yiyan by gifting her with another set.

The Xu Family had pulled a tactful move this time and left no stones unturned. Wen Xinya was indeed not as shrewd and cunning as those sly old foxes. Si Yiyan had opened up a new world for her and gave her an eyeopener. In fact, he wanted to train her for the dangerous world.

Pleased with the Xu Family’s way of handling the issue, Si Yiyan said, “This set of Four Treasures of the Study is an antique relic which was produced in the late Tang Dynasty. The Four Treasures of the Study evolved greatly during the Tang Dynasty. Hence, it reached its peak during the later period of the dynasty. The thickness of the brush, as well as the carvings on it, were all tailored for women. It’s more suitable for you, compared to the set that was auctioned.”

Thrilled to receive such a rare antique, Wen Xinya said, “Actually, I do have a suitable set of Four Treasures of the Study. Two years ago, Grandfather Zhong gave me a jade brush. However, I couldn’t bear to start using it, so I’ve been keeping it with me. I didn’t expect such a commotion to break out because of a set of Four Treasures of the Study.”

Wen Xinya’s spirits were immediately dampened at the thought of the brawl between Si Yiyan and Anatoli. If it weren’t because Si Yiyan wanted to gift her with a set of Four Treasures of the Study, he wouldn’t have gone toe to toe against Anatoli and ended up…

Si Yiyan held her hand and said, “But it’s not a gift from me.”

Even then, Wen Xinya was still extremely worried. She said, “Ever since the new mayor of the new city of Russia rose to position, the Ivanov Family has become more and more powerful. They’ve in fact already become one of the three Mafia families in Russia. Lucifer and the Ivanov Family have agreed to stop going against each other and step down from politics. However, now that you’ve hurt their precious heir, the Ivanov Family definitely wouldn’t sit back and do nothing. Will this affect Lucifer?”

That problem had been bugging her ever since yesterday. She did not wish for the Xiasi Group and Lucifer to be put in a disadvantageous position because of her.

Si Yiyan said, “There’ll definitely be some consequences. Lucifer and the Ivanov Family have been at peace for a total of ten years. All these years, the Ivanov Family has been coveting the power of the Du Family and trying to expand their territory. However, Lucifer’s existence poses a major threat to the Ivanov Family. Hence, it’s only a matter of time before Lucifer and the Ivanov Family get into another conflict. I’ve already made preparations when we made an agreement to stop the war. Hence, you don’t have to worry.”

Wen Xinya stared at Si Yiyan, knowing that Si Yiyan would never lie to her, though he would often downplay the matter. She said, “Si Yiyan, I thought I knew you well enough.”

Si Yiyan chuckled and said, “Did you realize that you don’t know me at all? Do you remember the time when I told you to recite the Buddhist scripture over the phone after you were kidnapped that night?”

Wen Xinya nodded and answered, “Yes!”

Si Yiyan stared at her and said, “Wen Xinya, it’s difficult for me to attain Nirvana in this lifetime! Well, because I’ve developed lust and desires and I’ve fallen in love. These emotions will develop into mindsets and become an invisible restriction. Once these ideas continue to develop, I’ll have the desire to act on them. In fact, ever since I fell in love with you, I had already given up pursuing Buddhism.” He smiled tenderly and continued, “Wen Xinya, at that moment, I unleashed my demons and decided that I would make whoever tries to encroach on my power pay the price.”

Wen Xinya’s kidnapping incident made him realize that he wanted to stay by her side openly and protect her at all costs. He felt that he had to become stronger in order to deal with those who tried to harm her. Hence, he gave up his beliefs in Buddhism, which he had been piously following for twenty years, for the sake of keeping her safe. Hence, he would forever be in Hell.

Wen Xinya’s heart wrenched, at a complete loss for words. Si Yiyan never failed to make her feel touched.

Si Yiyan held her cold and clammy hands. “I’ve rarely ever laid my hands on anyone. Anatoli has merely crossed the line.”

Si Yiyan would become a child and act recklessly whenever it came to incidents about her. He would often fail to consider the consequences.

She suddenly recalled the wipeout of the Black Sunday’s powers two years ago. Although it seemed like a rational decision, he was merely acting on impulse because of what Ning Shuqian had done to Wen Xinya. If Wen Xinya were in his shoes, she would definitely wait it out instead of alarming them. She would wait patiently for the mastermind to appear.

Yet, he had no patience at all and acted like a child who’d take revenge for everything that others had done to him, despite knowing that he may not necessarily win.

This side of Si Yiyan was completely different from the shrewd and scheming Si Yiyan she knew.

She could not help but be reminded of the time when Si Yiyan told her about his childhood. As a child, he was as timid as a mouse and cried all the time. Si Yiyan had shown her his vulnerable and impulsive side.

Hence, it was his very frailty which made him act recklessly, for fear that Wen Xinya would be harmed before he could even manage to retaliate. Hence, he had no choice but to intimidate them first.

It was the same case for the conflict with Anatoli this time. She held Si Yiyan’s hand and said, “This pair of hands are able to play the piano, pull out great chest moves, write beautiful calligraphy, and paint classic and refined paintings. How could you dirty them like that?”

Si Yiyan pulled her into his arms and kissed her head gently as a warm and fuzzy feeling filled his heart.
