"If Rong Xiuxiu gets a taste of blood with red spider lilies, will she immediately know that the underworld is involved in this matter?"
"Yes, but so what? The underworld didn’t really harm her, it just took preventive measures. She’s the one who brought trouble upon herself, who else is there to blame?"
Gu Lili asked again, "Then what consequences will she face?"
"It will cause her great discomfort for a while, having a powerful and deterring effect on her."
Gu Lili’s eyes lit up, "To have such an effect, that’s hugely useful. Have Xiao Bai bring me some extra."
"You should really have a taste of it yourself."
"It’s not just for eating." Gu Lili’s lips curled upward, "When the opportunity arises, I’ll let Rong Xiuxiu and Rong Fei experience its flavor. Although not now, I hope to get the chance in the future. A gentleman’s revenge can wait ten years; the torment those siblings have put me through is etched in my heart."
Long Yubei extended a finger to tap her forehead, "If you hadn’t stopped me, I’d have gone to give Rong Fei a good thrashing by now."
"Back when you came to Youyou Valley to find me, he was desperate to know whether you had feelings for me, otherwise, why go through such trouble? If you fight him again, wouldn’t that expose our relationship even more? It might lead to guesswork, and they could figure out that I am Gu Lili." After finishing, Gu Lili looked towards the door, only to see Gu Xichen and Jingsheng arriving.
"Perfect timing, I was just planning to look for you."
"You say that only after I’ve arrived." Gu Xichen did not believe her one bit, "You heartless woman."
"I really was thinking that, if you don’t believe me, ask Long Yubei."
Long Yubei betrayed his teammate, "She never even mentioned you."
Gu Lili kicked him off the sofa with one foot, "Scram, scram, scram!"
Long Yubei sat back down and caught her little feet in his hands and placed them on his lap, "I was wrong."
"There’s something I want to tell you guys. I heard that Ye Ying doesn’t get along well with your sister Long Tianjiao, right?"
Long Yubei nodded, "Yes, they have a very bad relationship. Why bring this up?"
"Ye Yan told me that the Ye Shui who popped up is actually Ye Ying." Gu Xichen revealed, "Ye Yan said that there is no daughter from the Ye Family studying abroad, it’s Ye Ying disguising herself to marry into a good family."
For a moment, Long Yubei and Gu Lili were shocked to the core.
"Absolutely true." Gu Xichen continued, "It was Father Ye himself who told Ye Yan not to let it out, but Ye Yan and I are so close, he casually told me. Considering that Ye Ying and he have always had a bitter relationship, he couldn’t care less about whether she marries well. I definitely had to tell you guys; that fool Ye Ying really knows how to mess things up. Just make sure your sister is a little wary, it’s enough that your family knows about this, don’t let it spread."
"When Ye Zheng’s funeral was happening, she was there, right? Hasn’t her brother only passed away not too long ago? She had surgery so quickly? Without any recovery period?" Google seaʀᴄh novel•fire.net
"According to what Ye Yan said, she made a deal with something unclean, that’s the only explanation that makes sense."
Gu Lili immediately thought of that night where she crouched by Rong Fei’s door and saw a yellow-garbed woman with Ye Ying.
At that time, she clearly heard Rong Fei ask the yellow-garbed woman: Wasn’t it you who cast a spell for the surgery?
But the yellow-garbed woman claimed it was natural.
It seemed that the yellow-garbed woman was the one who made a deal with Ye Ying.
Everything was explainable now.
"Xichen, thank you for telling us this, it’s incredibly important for us to know. Ye Ying and Tianjiao have always been at odds, now that her true identity is known, we can avoid unnecessary troubles."
