Reborn As Super Heiress

Seeing this scene, Gu Xu was practically exploding with rage.

Jiang Weide already found kidnappers to deal with his wife; that was one thing. But now he actually wants to use her name to gain publicity and profit from it.

Gu Xu’s gaze suddenly darkened, looking at Jiang Weide as if looking at a dead man.

Huo Sining was also quite angry, though she was much calmer than Gu Xu. Seeing that Gu Xu seemed about to charge up and knock Jiang Weide on the head with a stick, she hurriedly pulled him back and shook her head.

Gu Xu was puzzled, and Huo Sining’s lips curled into a slight smile. She turned back and coldly laughed at Jiang Weide.

Dealing with such small fry is not difficult at all. At least in Huo Sining’s view, handling someone like this is as easy as pie.

Huo Sining signaled Gu Xu not to move; she would handle it.

Gu Xu obviously had no objections. Since it was Jiang Weide targeting his wife, letting his wife deal with this ringleader and vent her anger was the best outcome.

Huo Sining didn’t mention how she planned to handle it. Just as she approached Jiang Weide, she waved her hand and sent him into her Space.

Glancing at the laptop in front of her, Huo Sining pondered for a moment and casually took it away.

Originally, she didn’t care about someone as clownish as Ge Xinming, but since Jiang Weide was in contact with Ge Xinming, she wasn’t inclined to let Ge Xinming pass.

It’s just a casual handling, if Ge Xinming doesn’t take the bait, Huo Sining might let him go, but if he does, then it’s time to settle old scores together.

Jiang Weide absolutely wouldn’t have expected that into his supposedly impregnable house would break two uninvited guests who dared to act right there.

Even when Huo Sining sent him into the Space, he didn’t react; he only felt a blur before his eyes and then... nothing.

The Space is timeless, so Jiang Weide couldn’t think within it.

He absolutely couldn’t foresee that just by hiring a few kidnappers to abduct a child, he would provoke such a demon of a woman.

If he had known Huo Sining was such terrifying character, even with ten guts, he wouldn’t dare provoke her.

Yet, the world lacks one thing: regret medicine.

What’s done is done; regretting now is useless.

After sending Jiang Weide into the Space, Huo Sining took a stroll around Jiang’s Villa.

Jiang Weide’s wife wasn’t home; only two maids lived in the house. Huo Sining didn’t disturb them, just wandered around Jiang Weide’s bedroom study.

Since she was here, leaving empty-handed was not an option. Huo Sining wasn’t polite; she promptly swept up a few antiques from the study into her Space. In the bedroom, she discovered a safe.

For Huo Sining, this thing wasn’t particularly enticing. Just a safe, which at most could hold ten to twenty thousand in cash, she didn’t consider it worth her time. But after glancing with her Heavenly Eye, she unexpectedly found a big problem.

Inside the safe, indeed, there was only a little over ten thousand in cash, but apart from the cash, there was a notebook.

Huo Sining paused, considering.

The presence of a notebook within a safe could only mean one thing: the contents of the notebook were exceedingly important. Important enough for Jiang Weide to go to such lengths, even using a safe to store it.

If it was just ten thousand in cash, Jiang Weide wouldn’t need such a refined safe. He could stash it in any corner; it was just ten thousand, merely a drop in the ocean for a wealthy man like Jiang Weide, hardly worth considering.

Thinking this, Huo Sining grew interested in the notebook inside the safe.

She had used her Heavenly Eye to open airplane cockpit doors before, so a safe was just a minor challenge. All she had to do was use the Heavenly Eye to discern the pattern of the gears and locks within, then gently turn the safe’s combination locks until the codes perfectly aligned with the gears.

In barely a minute, Huo Sining cracked the code, and the safe clicked open with a beep.

Raising her head, Huo Sining flashed a proud smile at Gu Xu, as if to say: ”See how capable I am.”

Gu Xu, although not knowing why his wife opened Jiang Weide’s safe, saw her enjoying herself and had no complaints.

On one hand, he’s a slave to his wife, unconditionally approving her every move;

On the other, Jiang Weide dared to hire people to abduct Little Chubby Girl. Although she wasn’t harmed, she was certainly scared, and it frightened many of us. The emotional damages need compensation, so it’s only fair that his wife takes some things from Jiang’s house as recompense.

Gu Xu didn’t find Huo Sining’s actions problematic, and neither did Huo Sining have any qualms about being a thief; the two treated the place as their own home, directly emptying Jiang Weide’s safe.

Checking the time, it was already past five o’clock, the sky showing signs of dawn. Any delay, and the two maids might wake up to clean and shop at the market, potentially leading to complications.

Huo Sining signaled Gu Xu, then they quietly left the Jiang Residence, walked back to their car, and got in, before lifting the Invisibility Spell, showing themselves.

Driving the car back to the hotel, it was nearing six o’clock when they arrived at their room, where Huo Sining released Little Chubby Girl.

The little girl was sound asleep, completely unaware of Huo Sining and Gu Xu’s nocturnal visit to the Jiang Residence.

By seven-ish in the morning, as Huo Sining and Gu Xu lay in sweet slumber, there came a sudden knock on the door.

With military habits ingrained, Gu Xu was more alert than Huo Sining. Upon hearing the urgent knocking, he quickly got up to answer the door.

Opening the door, seeing Ji Kun standing outside, Gu Xu couldn’t help but be puzzled, looking at him with a hint of bewilderment: ”Senior Brother Ji, why are you knocking so early? What’s going on?”

Ji Kun was ready to go downstairs for breakfast with Zhou Shitao, planning his visit to the archaeological site later. Yet, recalling the elevator gossip he overheard last night, Ji Kun felt uneasy.

Thus, he made an excuse of forgetting something in his room to separate from Zhou Shitao, returning alone upstairs to knock on Gu Xu and Huo Sining’s door.
