Chapter 626: Make some concessions
When Yi Lin disappeared from his sight, Baili Hengyuan sat down, frowned, and said, "Nian Yao, do you think Yi Lin will send Yi Huai's children away?"
"He will." Zhong Nianyao's tone was full of certainty. "Yi Huai's death is a foregone conclusion, but Yi Lin would never dare to gamble the entire Yi family just to protect Yi Huai's children."
To be precise, if what just happened hadn't happened, Yi Lin might have felt sorry for his son because of Yi Huai's death, and might have softened his heart and kept Yi Huai's children. In fact, as compensation, he might even treat the children better.
However, after what just happened, he even felt that he had walked on the edge of life and death. After seeing how powerful Zhong Nianyao was, his determination to protect Yi Huai's child was no longer as strong as when he first came.
When it comes to choosing between his grandson and himself, Yi Lin is a smart man and he knows what to choose.
Baili Hengyuan nodded, then became puzzled. "Why did Yi Huai suddenly die? Nian Yao, what kind of person killed him?"
"Who knows!" Zhong Nianyao's expression was calm, without any sign of abnormality. "Mom and him grew up together. Even if there's no romantic relationship between us, there's a brother-sister relationship. Even so, he still attacked Mom. It's clear that he's a ruthless hypocrite. How could such a person have only done one bad thing?"
"Maybe it was some other enemy who killed him. But because Mom's affair was exposed recently, Yi Lin naturally thought that we were the ones who killed Yi Huai."
"That's complete nonsense." Baili Hengyuan waved his sleeves, his tone filled with displeasure. "That old bastard Yi Lin is truly shameless. He can't find anyone to take the blame, so he wants to put it on us."
"Grandpa, don't think too much." Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, "Anyway, after today, Yi Lin won't dare to come to our house easily."
"Yeah." Baili Hengyuan nodded and then said, "Now our Baili family and the Yi family have completely broken off relations. This is a good thing. From now on, there will be no need for any further dealings between the two families."
"Now that your mother has woken up, we will have to prepare for the exchange meeting."
"Okay," Zhong Nianyao said after thinking for a moment, "Grandpa, I'll be leaving to find Dad in a few days. I'd like you and my three uncles to help take care of Mom."
"Even if you don't tell us, we will take good care of Le Yao. It's just that—"
When he said this, Baili Hengyuan couldn't help but show a trace of worry on his face, "Nian Yao, do we really have to go? It's really too dangerous."
"Grandpa, I have to go this time." Zhong Nianyao shook her head, her voice was soft, but her tone was firm. "Since I already know that Dad might be there, I must go to find him. Whether he is alive or dead, there must be a result! Whether it is for myself, or for Mom and Grandpa and Grandma, I can't hide."
Looking at Zhong Nianyao's determined look, Baili Hengyuan sighed and then said, "Since you have already made up your mind, I have nothing more to say."
"But you still have to be careful," Baili Hengyuan warned. "That place is on a steep cliff, so it's not something to joke around with. If you really can't find it, then come back early. Your father won't blame you if he finds out."
Zhong Nianyao nodded and said with a smile, "Grandpa, don't worry, I know what to do. Also, I'm not going alone, Yichen will go with me."
"That's fine." Baili Hengyuan nodded. "You two can go together so you can look after each other."
After giving a few instructions, Baili Hengyuan left in a hurry.
Now that Yi Huai is dead, and Yi Lin has been taught a lesson by Zhong Nianyao, who can guarantee that he will behave himself and never cause trouble for the Baili family again?
In addition, the exchange meeting of the major hidden families is about to begin. This is related to their resources for next year, so they cannot take it lightly.
He must make all the necessary preparations and absolutely cannot allow any mistakes to occur.
After Baili Hengyuan left, Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao did not linger in the living room any longer. They returned to their room together.
After returning to the room, Zhong Nian Yao sat down, her brows slightly furrowed, her eyes slightly dimmed, as if she was thinking about something.
Lu Yichen walked to the seat next to Zhong Nianyao, sat down, reached out his hand, gently patted Zhong Nianyao's hair, and said, "Are you still thinking about Yi Huai?"
Although she was thinking about the problem, Zhong Nianyao was not completely distracted, so she was not scared when Lu Yichen patted her hair. She nodded, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, "I have known for a long time that Yi Huai was in a life-or-death crisis. I am not surprised by his death. But how did he die?"
"Although it looked like a sudden death, everyone knew that Yi Huai was murdered. So who killed him? And why did they kill him?"
"If you really can't figure it out, why not ask the person involved?" Lu Yichen suggested, "Or, the ghost in question would be more accurate."
One word can wake a dreamer up.
"That's right!" Zhong Nianyao's eyes lit up, "Why not just bring Yi Huai's ghost up here and ask him? However, I don't have his things, so I can't summon his soul. I'd better ask the judge to come up and ask him to help find Yi Huai and ask him."
The judge seems quite approachable, so he shouldn't be too reluctant to help you!
Zhong Nianyao did it right away without any delay and immediately invited the judge out.
Soon, the room began to darken and the atmosphere began to deteriorate.
Soon, the judge appeared in the room.
It seemed that he was mentally prepared. When the judge saw Lu Yichen and Zhong Nian Yao, there was no sign of surprise on his face.
He took a few steps forward, bowed respectfully, and then said, "What's the matter with you two that has brought me here?"
"Your Excellency the Judge, I do have something I'd like to consult you on." Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, "I'd like to ask a ghost a question, but I don't have anything of his, so I can't summon his spirit. So, I'd like to ask you to be flexible and summon the ghost. We'll just ask a few simple questions, it won't take too long."
