At that time, Yi Qilin thought that if he could tame her, she would definitely become his most capable assistant.
So, he spent a lot of money to raise a dog that would never betray him, and it was worth it.
Thinking of this, he finally released his grip on Liu Meiling's hand.
"Cough cough cough..." As she breathed in fresh air again, Liu Meiling coughed so hard she almost died, and physiological tears streamed down her face.
There was grievance and sadness.
Yi Qilin patted her back gently, then said casually, "Speaking of which, Yi Tianran was also your friend back then. I can understand why you don't want to betray her."
When he was determined to help Liu Meiling, he naturally investigated her background and experiences beforehand.
"I didn't!" Liu Meiling grabbed his arm and eagerly declared her loyalty. "When I was in dire straits and about to fall into the abyss, you saved me. From that moment on, I swore in my heart that I would be your woman for life."
Yi Qilin seemed to nod in satisfaction, then opened the video again and watched it from beginning to end.
I haven't figured out the trick yet, but this is undoubtedly a big bargaining chip, and it will be useful to keep it.
"However... I really didn't expect that Yi Tianran would still be alive!"
Yi Qilin knew how much the old lady doted on her. If he had known she was still alive, he would have given her all the family property and shares.
Most importantly, Yi Tianran probably already knows about the secret room. If she finds out what's hidden inside, all my plans will be ruined.
Therefore, he absolutely cannot let Yi Tianran return; he must take the initiative first.
"But she's really heartless. She didn't even go to see the old lady after she came back. It's a waste that the old lady loved her so much." Yi Qilin's people were constantly monitoring the old lady's movements, and they knew the identities of all the people she came into contact with.
This does not include Yi Tianran.
However, he overlooked an important point: he didn't know that Yi Tianran was skilled in disguise and had already met the old lady many times.
Liu Meiling's eyes darted away, deliberately concealing the matter.
In any case, she should keep a trump card for herself.
"By the way, how's Xu Zhe doing lately?" Actually, Liu Meiling's initial task was to be assigned by Yi Qilin to be by Xu Zhe's side, to keep a close eye on all his movements, and to report to him immediately if anything suspicious happened.
That's why she initially went to Linghua to be the school doctor, just to make it easier to observe Xu Zhe.
Later, he even followed him abroad to observe, which shows that Xu Zhe played a very important role in Yi Qilin's life.
“He’s doing well, so you don’t need to worry about him.” Yi Qilin said halfway through, then suddenly remembered something and quickly warned her, “Remember, you absolutely cannot tell Yi Tianran anything about Xu Zhe, not even a single word.”
Liu Meiling's eyelids twitched.
It would be extremely inappropriate to say at this point that she only reunited with Yi Tianran because of Xu Zhe.
First, the disguise would no longer be able to be concealed; second... things would be out of his control, and he would fly into a rage.
"Why? Is there any connection between them?" she asked curiously.
Yi Qilin simply said in a profound and enigmatic tone, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. You'll find out later. Just do as I instruct you."
Liu Meiling obediently nodded.
"Qilin, can I stay tonight?" After finishing their business, Liu Meiling couldn't help but soften and ask tenderly.
"No." Yi Qilin was displeased, feeling that she had become increasingly out of line lately.
But seeing her disappointed expression, he still gently comforted her, "I also miss you very much and want to keep you by my side at all times, but the situation is different now. I have an important task to assign to you. You have to help me monitor Yi Tianran and not reveal the slightest flaw."
"As long as you have faith in him and give me time to prepare, I will be able to take control of the situation. When I officially become the heir of the Yi family, I will have more time to spend with you, don't you think?"
Liu Meiling was deeply moved by what he said and realized that she had been incredibly immature just now.
Even though she knows this is a crucial moment, she still can't help but act coquettishly towards the man she loves.
"I understand." She nodded obediently, just as she had been persuaded countless times before.
"My darling is so sensible." Yi Qilin nodded in satisfaction, patted her head, and gestured for her to leave.
The moment Liu Meiling turned around, the smile on his face vanished completely, leaving only indifference and contempt in his eyes.
Just then, Liu Meiling, who had reached the door, suddenly stopped. "By the way, Qilin, do you know what happened online during the day?"
"What daytime?" Yi Qilin quickly suppressed his disdain and pretended to be puzzled. "I just came back from abroad not long ago. I've been so busy that I haven't had a moment to spare. I haven't had time to go online and pay attention to anything."
"Is that so?" Liu Meiling murmured to herself.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Yi Qilin's tone clearly urged him on.
Liu Meiling forced a smile. "It's okay, I'm leaving."
After saying that, she pushed open the door and went out.
Yi Qilin did not call her again.
Even if she specifically brought up the trending news on the internet during the day, if she really cared, she could simply check it out now to find out what she had experienced that day.
But he didn't.
Is it because she didn't know that the matter was related to her that she was indifferent?
...
How can we prevent Yi Tianran from returning to the Yi family and taking control of the situation?
Yi Qilin pondered for a long time but still couldn't come up with a perfect solution. Then, someone offered to cooperate with him.
"What did you say?" In the reception room, Yi Qilin stared at the woman in front of him in disbelief, thinking she was simply insane.
"Miss Lu Xuanyi, you said you want to have plastic surgery to look like Yi Tianran, and you want me to cooperate with you to solidify this identity! If I help you, will the Lu Group support me?"
"Is there a problem?" Lu Xuanyi said matter-of-factly, "I know that Young Master Yi has been seeking partners recently and seems to be plotting something. In that case, I'm willing to help you out. You two can cooperate and achieve a win-win situation, wouldn't that be better?"
Yi Qilin couldn't understand, "But why do you want to look like Yi Tianran?"
"Why don't you need to know?" Lu Xuanyi said arrogantly. "Anyway, Yi Tianran is already dead. What if I impersonate her? As long as your Yi family recognizes my identity, I can be resurrected."
Isn't Yi Tianran's face what Fu Yunchen loves most?
To alleviate the pain of longing, she even went so far as to find so many peripheral items.
Since that's the case, she decided to give the other party an authentic copy.
Yi Tianran, who has come back from the dead, has returned to his side. Could there be a bigger surprise than this?
