Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shi Man was not embarrassed at all. Instead, she said calmly, “1 got soone to investigate the Yi family’s past. Yi Zheng’s grandfather, Yi Cheng, has spent almost his entire life in mutual deception. The only person he trusted back then was probably you.”
Yi Ming’s eyes flickered, and his voice gradually beca deeper. “I’m Yi Cheng’s biological brother. If he doesn’t trust , who else can he trust?”
“I heard that a very bad kidnapping happened in the Yi family back then, causing Yi Zheng’s grandmother to unfortunately die. Yi Cheng also couldn’t recover from this setback. The company’s matters were handed over to you for a period of ti.”
Shi Man put down the teacup and habitually tapped her fingers on the coffee table. Every tap seed to knock on his heart. “The mastermind was not caught later, but after Yi Cheng pulled himself together, he took back the power you controlled bit by bit. I’m telling the truth, right?”
Yi Ming slowly curled his lips and sneered in the silent ward. “Yi Cheng is selfish and enjoys his rights in his own hands, but if he dies, won’t he be unable to take anything away? In the end, he’ll just be a handful of ashes!” “What about you? Why do you want so much power?” Shi Man frowned in confusion, as if she was trying to tell if his words ca from the bottom of his heart or if he was just using them to brush her off.
“I’m just taking back what’s mine!”
Yi Ming glared fiercely and clenched his fists. “Everyone outside says that it’s the foundation Yi Cheng built. Then what am I doing for the Yi family? Do you know how much 1 sacrificed for the Yi family?!”
Shi Man was slightly stunned. She retracted her gaze thoughtfully and looked at the ti on her phone. She said calmly, “I’ve finished asking what 1 wanted to ask. I know that no matter how 1 interrogate you, you won’t tell the truth, so our conversation today ends here. I’ll go back first.”
“Stop right there!” Yi Ming propped up his upper body and glared at her back. “I advise you not to investigate the Yi family’s past. This won’t do you any good. The more you know, the harder it will be for you to marry Yi Zheng.”
“If you had stopped long ago, 1 naturally wouldn’t have continued to investigate.” Shi Man turned her head slightly and her cold gaze slowly landed on him. “But I’m afraid you don’t have this intention.”
She was referring to what he had hidden in the drawer this morning.
Yi Ming understood, so he was even more certain.
The violent cough brought a faint pain to his chest. He glanced at the bottom of the pillow and lay down on it weakly, a mocking smile on his lips.
It turned out that the person who cured Yi Zheng was Shi Man.
However, he did not know what expression Shen Xian and her husband would have when facing Shi Man, who knew how to hide her sharpness.
Outside the Yi Corporation’s building, Yi Che was about to get into the car when the phone in his pocket suddenly began to vibrate.
He threw his bag into the front passenger seat and reached for his phone. When he saw the unfamiliar caller ID, his pupils constricted. He looked around guiltily before picking up the call nervously.
On the other end of the phone, a rough male voice that had been changed sounded faintly. “I’ve already let you know the answer to that drug, right? I’m not lying to you.”
“Yes.” The light in Yi Che’s eyes suddenly dimd. He lowered his voice and said, “But isn’t it too late for to know this? Shi Man knows dicine and has a rcenary group under her like my brother, but I don’t have anything. Why are you looking for to cooperate?”
“Because you have nothing.” The man seed to be very satisfied with his reaction at this mont. He chuckled and continued to guide him. “It doesn’t matter if you don’t have anything. What I need is your clean hands.”
“What else do you want to do?” Yi Che frowned. Thinking of the ssage he had inexplicably received so ti ago, his heart thumped.
If it weren’t for this person pushing him from behind, he probably wouldn’t have been able to make up his mind to use Liu Ran to take down his biological father.
He did not regret avenging his mother, but he was very afraid that another unknown person was hiding in the dark and knew everything about him.
The man smiled comfortingly and said, “You don’t have to be so nervous. Even if you don’t listen to , your grandfather will definitely force you to do this. Now that Shi Man’s whereabouts are very fixed, we can start the next step of the plan.”
“What plan?” Yi Che subconsciously tightened his grip on his cell phone. When he heard the voice coming from the phone, his pupils subconsciously dilated.
It was coming to a week since Shi Man insisted on coming to the hospital to visit Yi Ming.
Yi Zheng realized that the two of them, who had been at daggers drawn at the beginning, had beco strangely harmonious.
Yi Ming would sotis instruct her to do things and Shi Man would have no complaints. However, when their gazes t occasionally, it would lower the temperature of the surrounding air.
On this day, after Shi Man finished watching Yi Ming, she was about to leave the hospital to go to school. On the way, she received a call from Su Tang asking her to go ho to get her howork.
Shi Man agreed without thinking. After hanging up, she was surprised to see a familiar face in the mirror..
