The reminder of another visitor made Shui Xinyan rub her temples. This time it must be the Shui family again. She checked the security camera footage, then raised an eyebrow, and without even changing out of her training clothes, jumped off the second-floor balcony.
Yan Luo, who happened to witness this scene: ...Who said this person wasn't even a first-level martial artist and was just a weakling?
Standing at the villa entrance, looking at the newcomers, Shui Xinyan smiled and said, "You guys actually dare to come?" Yes, Ye Qianling and the other three were all there.
"Ahem, Yan Yan, Xin Yan, the person I asked you to find last time..."
"Didn't I already send it to you?"
The girl leaned against the door, her long hair tied in a ponytail, her face flushed. From their angle, they could see the water droplets on her forehead glistening in the sunlight, indicating that she had just finished training.
"Oh! You can even train?" Feng Zhaoxue couldn't stand Shui Xinyan no matter what she did.
"What's it to you?"
"Could you provide more accurate information about that person? Price is negotiable," Li Yixun said bluntly.
How detailed would you like it to be?
“His position there, what he mainly did, and his weaknesses.”
"The fat sheep delivered to your door are never easy to slaughter." Shui Xinyan sighed, then spread her hands, "There's nothing I can do about it. Finding people is my specialty, but investigating their background, let alone whether I can find it, it's not worth it to be targeted by a complete stranger."
"You're afraid of being targeted?" Ye Qianling was a little surprised. This person had always been fearless.
"After all, you only have one life. Once it's over, it's over. Let's resolve the internal affairs of the Li family internally. Take care, everyone, and don't see us off." Shui Xinyan said, turning to leave.
“Di Luo’s notification,” Li Yixun suddenly spoke.
Shui Xinyan paused, looking at them again, but the smile was gone. "That was certainly tempting six months ago. But now—Young Master Li, do you think I'll be left without a school to attend?"
"The Ling family is in charge of fighting the Crimson Flame. If you want to go to Diluo, you can only trust me."
"Does Young Master Li think I'm too young to be easily fooled?"
Li Yixun's gaze was icy. "What I mean is, if this deal doesn't go through, you can forget about ever entering Diluo's door."
Shui Xinyan laughed. Was she being threatened, or was she being threatened?
"Running around in front of someone else's house to show off, Young Master Li is really something." Yan Luo's voice rang out at the right time.
"Why did you come out?" Shui Xinyan was a little surprised. This person had never left the house since arriving here.
“Miss,” Yan Luo nodded to her, “If you get bullied, Young Master Ling will surely tear me apart. You don’t need to worry about these petty family matters right now, Miss. Why don’t you go back and rest first?”
What's going on here? Shui Xinyan blinked, and roughly guessed that it was Ling Yuchen's idea.
"You handle the matter, I'll watch the show."
“That’s fine too.” Yan Luo smiled, then looked at Li Yixun, “Third Young Master, you’ve gotten so disoriented after just one trip and being called ‘Young Master Li’ a few times?”
"Yan Luo!" Li Yixun gritted his teeth as he looked at this person. One Ling Yuchen was one thing, but what was this smiling tiger doing here?
"No need to raise your voice, I'm listening. What did you just say, Third Young Master? That our young lady can't enter Diluo? These aristocratic families are the most complicated. Are you sure you're going to say something so definitive here?"
"I, I..." Li Yixun opened his mouth several times, but he didn't dare to answer.
"You can't make that decision, so don't try to show off here. In the end, you'll be the one who loses face."
Li Yixun's face darkened, then he sneered, "What is Shui Xinyan? An orphan from the Shui family, and a spoiled brat at that! She thinks she can be my fiancée? Your Ling family really has a good plan!"
"Fiancée?" Shui Xinyan looked at Yan Luo, only to find surprise and astonishment in his eyes.
However, Yan Luo reacted quickly, "Third Young Master, where did you hear this from? You want our young lady to be your fiancée? And an orphan? Are you really going to turn against us by cursing our family head and his wife like this? Alright, I'll repeat this to your Young Master Li later to verify it."
"What did she lock up your family's master for...?"
"The efficiency is too slow."
"Young Master Ling, these people don't understand human language, so it's a bit difficult to explain." Yan Luo smiled, including the insults directed at them.
"Explain yourself. Little sister, come back with me." Ling Yuchen looked at Shui Xinyan.
Shui Xinyan glanced at the group of people outside the door whose faces looked grim, and nodded cheerfully.
After watching the two leave, Yan Luocai said again, "This is our Young Master Ling's sister, the kind that matches his bloodline. Third Young Master, you should use your brain a little more in everything you do."
"You—this is impossible! The Ling family only has three members, where did this come from…"
"Go back and ask Young Master Li. You know nothing, yet you come here barking nonsense. Are you being used as a pawn again?"
...
In the living room, Ling Yuchen looked at his younger sister, "Did you come to ask about Li Xin?"
Shui Xinyan nodded.
"Don't worry about him, he can't make the decision anyway," Ling Yuchen added.
"I understand. When will they leave Lian Shui Xing?"
"It'll be over soon. They all have tasks during the holidays, so they probably haven't had time to finish them yet."
Shui Xinyan nodded, then asked, "I'd like to add a little something to his return journey. I hope that won't cause trouble for the Ling family?"
"As long as there is no evidence."
Shui Xinyan's eyes gleamed with cunning. "We absolutely won't leave a trace. The Li family must be dealt with by the Li family."
"Then be careful." Guessing that she wanted to use hacking abilities, Ling Yuchen remained expressionless, but his eyes held a hint of doting affection.
