"Because I like you more than that so-called Comrade Jiang Yu and Bai Qin. And you have a kind of tenacity that I had when I was young. Anyway, no matter what, the situation and the facts are what they are. In this family, no one but me will help you."

Yin Yali's words made Deng Wei's lips twitch involuntarily. What youthful tenacity? Wasn't it just some shady tactics used to climb the ladder?

The words she wanted to say stuck in her throat, unspoken. It's best if everyone just knows the truth; saying it aloud would be an insult to both of them.

"Then why didn't you show up when Bai Qin locked me in the garage this afternoon? You were just pretending to fawn over him. What do you say about that?"

Thinking about the terrifying afternoon she spent in the garage, Deng Wei was furious. Even if she couldn't rescue her, shouldn't this woman at least have persuaded Bai Qin to put on a show?

And what happened? Not only could she not be relied on for anything, but she was only spared when she had to prove her innocence in front of Bai Xiuye ​​because of the old man's feelings for her.

Otherwise, she would be in jail by now.

"Look at what you're saying, child. What do you mean by trying to please him? If I make it too obvious, what will Bai Qin think? Besides, the reason I haven't interfered too much is because I know Mr. Bai's feelings for you, and he can't bear to let you go."

"You think I didn't do anything? It was me whispering in his ear while he was sleeping, not you. That's a bit unfair to accuse someone like that."

Yin Yali had already prepared a strategy for dealing with her questioning. She was certain that the other woman just wanted to complain and vent her frustrations from the afternoon. So she let her be.

After listening, Deng Wei thought about it and realized it was indeed true. If she showed too much closeness to Yin Yali at home, Commander Bai would become suspicious.

Isn't Bai Qin a perfect example? Otherwise, how would he have discovered that he and Jiang Meier had kidnapped Jiang Yu?

But then again, why does Commander Bai dislike Jiang Yu so much? He's not stupid; he should be able to see that woman is more like the Bai family's heiress than he is!

Sensing the woman's doubt, Yin Yali lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and whispered:

"I know Lao Bai very well. He just likes women with gentle and submissive personalities. Otherwise, do you think I would have been able to marry into this family in that world full of beautiful and decadent women?"

Bai Qin and that girl named Jiang Yu, their personalities are just like his. Not only are they disobedient, but they also always contradict his opinions. What use are such disobedient people to the Bai family, which is so wealthy and powerful?

"So he'd be willing to raise a fake daughter? That's ridiculous."

Deng Wei didn't believe Yin Yali's words at all, thinking she was joking. She covered her nose, which was stung by the smoke, frowned, and coughed twice.

"What else can we do? Everyone already knows about your return home, and we even introduced you to the Bai family's relatives. Now, just because of this fake identity, they're kicking you out? Don't they care about their reputation?"

Now that he's climbed to this position, becoming a prominent figure, he not only wants power and money, but he also can't afford to lose face. Otherwise, what if someone with ulterior motives uses this against him? Don't underestimate these things; they're all intertwined.

Yin Yali's explanation made a lot of sense. It not only cleared up Deng Wei's confusion, but also reassured her and made her more confident in herself.

"What if problems arise after it's discovered?"

Although the woman's analysis made a lot of sense, she couldn't sacrifice herself for it. If she succeeded, all would be well; but what if she failed? What if she was discovered?

These are all problems that could arise at any time, and some safeguards are needed.

"Since I'm giving you this packet of medicine, it means I've thought everything through. Don't worry, after this incident, Bai Qin won't be back for a long time. Mr. Bai is currently suffering from headaches because of Bai Ling's matter and has no time to take care of the situation at home."

If you dare to do it, you can succeed. Then we'll split the assets equally. What kind of life wouldn't you want?

You don't need to worry about being discovered if it really comes to that. Just deny it to the death and blame the servants. Anyway, this packet of medicine is colorless and odorless, so you won't find any key information about it.

Yin Yali, after all, was a woman who had lived in this family for over a decade, and she had seen countless servants who were casually dismissed by wealthy and powerful families. So, in their eyes, this little matter was nothing.

"What's in here? Will someone die if they eat it?"

Deng Wei picked up the medicine packet on the table with trembling hands and asked with a curious expression.

"The less you know, the fewer things you'll get involved in. You don't need to ask what it is; just know that it won't kill you, it will only put you into a coma for a period of time, and that's enough."

Seeing that the woman was about to be persuaded, Yin Yali had a determined look on her face and they reached an agreement.

Deng Wei put the medicine packet into her pocket, gently turned the doorknob, opened the door, and looked left and right. Seeing that no one was home, she went downstairs without hesitation. Even after returning to her bedroom, her heart was still pounding.

......

On the way home, Bai Ling kept asking Bai Qin how he and Jiang Yu knew each other. Mainly, the two seemed very familiar with each other, which made her feel a sense of unease.

She couldn't believe that a woman could be so capable, not only possessing Shen Ying but also stealing away her most obedient cousin from childhood.

Bai Qin naturally wanted to explain the situation to his cousin, but after Jiang Yu's reminder and warning, he dared not speak carelessly.

Otherwise, they might not even pay attention to themselves anymore, which would be a loss.

"Germany is still the best place to nurture people. My little brother, who's been abroad for so many years, has even distanced himself from his sister since he came back. It's a good thing he's grown up and has his own thoughts."

But as your older sister, I have to remind you, that Comrade Jiang Yu has been married for many years, and those three children in the hospital are hers. And her husband is also very outstanding in the military; your uncle greatly admires him.”

Bai Ling feigned a sour smile, misunderstanding that Bai Qin liked Jiang Yu, and explained the situation to him. She wondered what kind of magic that woman possessed that could bewitch Shen Ying; the only reason was because they were married and had three children.

It's understandable that the man who helped her out of that awkward situation at the coffee shop was Boss Jiang Yu, given his attentive care.

But it doesn't make sense that her own younger brother, a handsome and wealthy young man who had just returned from abroad, was also captivated by her.

"Sis, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Hearing that Bai Ling had misunderstood his relationship with Jiang Yu, he quickly explained.

"It's best if it isn't."

Bai Ling seemed lost in thought.
