Chapter 877: Miss Si Is Capable of Anything (1)
“Miss Si is capable of anything!” Xi Jiang blurted out instinctively.
Hearing this, Father Tan became even more furious. “I think you’ve become delusional from idolizing her!”
His son had been quite obedient when he was younger. Ever since he signed up for a confidential mission at sixteen, he had grown increasingly fond of defying his orders.
He repeatedly challenged his father’s authority, becoming utterly unruly!
Xi Jiang put away his phone and frowned. “I’ll stay with Feng San for a while. I’ll come back to see you another day.”
Father Tan was livid. “If you dare step out of this house today, don’t bother coming back!”
Xi Jiang paused momentarily but didn’t stop, leaving without looking back.
“Clang!”
Father Tan grabbed a glass from the table and hurled it at the door, shattering it to pieces.
Mother Tan came out from the kitchen upon hearing the commotion. “Why are you speaking to the child like that? What’s the rush?”
“How can I not be in a rush?” Father Tan’s chest heaved with anger. “He’s almost twenty-four, yet he’s not settled down. He rarely comes home, and when he does, he doesn’t listen to us!”
Mother Tan sighed. “Our children have their own fortunes. What’s the use of controlling so much?”
“You ignorant woman!” Father Tan was furious. “I rely on him for my old age. If he’s not successful, how can I not care? I’m doing this for his own good, and you’re just spoiling him!”
“Look at him. The ultimate assessment is next month. If he fails, he’ll be abolished. Do you understand?”
Mother Tan fell silent.
This was indeed true, considering they weren’t of the Mo family lineage.
Non-direct descendants of the Mo family faced a major assessment at the age of twenty-four, with only the top 10% allowed to remain in the family.
The bottom 20% would be stripped of their martial arts skills and hidden weapons.

The next day.
Si Fuqing boarded Yu Xiheng’s private jet with her luggage.
Yuejian, being perceptive, left with the program crew.
Just as Si Fuqing placed her luggage down, she saw a familiar face. “...”
Oh no.
Why was her boss with Zero’s Captain?
Si Fuqing narrowed her eyes slightly.
“This is Mr. Huo,” Yu Xiheng introduced. “He’s heading to the Great Xia Empire for some business and will be protecting us.”
Huo Yanhang: “...”
Alright, he was indeed responsible for their protection.
Given this man’s value, it made sense.
At the first glance Si Fuqing exchanged with Huo Yanhang, she knew he had recognized her.
Misjudged.
Her boss’s license plate was too conspicuous.
Her disguise was in vain.
“Nice to meet you, Miss Si,” Huo Yanhang stood up, not exposing her directly. “If you ever face any personal safety issues, feel free to call us. We’ll respond at any time.”
Si Fuqing nodded and decisively sat next to Yu Xiheng, using his tall figure to shield herself.
She had a feeling that this Huo guy didn’t get along with her third senior sister.
