Chapter 393: The Mastermind

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

s.h.i.+ Man was not embarra.s.sed at all. Instead, she said calmly, 1 got someone to investigate the Yi familys past. Yi Zhengs grandfather, Yi Cheng, has spent almost his entire life in mutual deception. The only person he trusted back then was probably you.

Yi Mings eyes flickered, and his voice gradually became deeper. Im Yi Chengs biological brother. If he doesnt trust me, who else can he trust?

I heard that a very bad kidnapping happened in the Yi family back then, causing Yi Zhengs grandmother to unfortunately die. Yi Cheng also couldnt recover from this setback. The companys matters were handed over to you for a period of time.

s.h.i.+ Man put down the teacup and habitually tapped her fingers on the coffee table. Every tap seemed 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. Im 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, wont he be unable to take anything away? In the end, hell just be a handful of ashes! What about you? Why do you want so much power? s.h.i.+ Man frowned in confusion, as if she was trying to tell if his words came from the bottom of his heart or if he was just using them to brush her off.

Im just taking back whats mine!

Yi Ming glared fiercely and clenched his fists. Everyone outside says that its 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?!

s.h.i.+ Man was slightly stunned. She retracted her gaze thoughtfully and looked at the time on her phone. She said calmly, Ive finished asking what 1 wanted to ask. I know that no matter how 1 interrogate you, you wont tell me the truth, so our conversation today ends here. Ill 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 familys past. This wont 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 wouldnt have continued to investigate. s.h.i.+ Man turned her head slightly and her cold gaze slowly landed on him. But Im afraid you dont 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 s.h.i.+ Man.

However, he did not know what expression Shen Xian and her husband would have when facing s.h.i.+ Man, who knew how to hide her sharpness.

Outside the Yi Corporations 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 pa.s.senger 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. Ive already let you know the answer to that drug, right? Im not lying to you.

Yes. The light in Yi Ches eyes suddenly dimmed. He lowered his voice and said, But isnt it too late for me to know this? s.h.i.+ Man knows medicine and has a mercenary group under her like my brother, but I dont have anything. Why are you looking for me to cooperate?

Because you have nothing. The man seemed to be very satisfied with his reaction at this moment. He chuckled and continued to guide him. It doesnt matter if you dont have anything. What I need is your clean hands.

What else do you want me to do? Yi Che frowned. Thinking of the message he had inexplicably received some time ago, his heart thumped.

If it werent for this person pus.h.i.+ng him from behind, he probably wouldnt 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 dont have to be so nervous. Even if you dont listen to me, your grandfather will definitely force you to do this. Now that s.h.i.+ Mans 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 s.h.i.+ 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 become strangely harmonious.

Yi Ming would sometimes instruct her to do things and s.h.i.+ Man would have no complaints. However, when their gazes met occasionally, it would lower the temperature of the surrounding air.

On this day, after s.h.i.+ 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 home to get her homework.

s.h.i.+ Man agreed without thinking. After hanging up, she was surprised to see a familiar face in the mirror..
