Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

Although Li Yiran was on the verge of losing her composure due to excitement, she knew she couldnt afford to do so in front of Li Yi. Thus, she exerted all her strength to contain her emotions, ensuring Li Yi wouldnt detect anything amiss.

Li Yi continued, Ive investigated. The day before Second Young Master went for his training, Zhong Yating sneaked into his room unnoticed by others. Moreover, the reason for the spirit beasts attack on Second Young Master was the scent of his clothes, which attracted them. Previously, it was speculated that Second Young Master might have accidentally come into contact with a substance in the forest that attracted the spirit beasts. However, after investigation, it seems likely that Zhong Yating applied the substance to his clothes the night before.

Is that so? Li Yirans tone was filled with excitement, but she quickly realized her inappropriate emotions and switched to an indignant expression. How could she do such a thing? Doesnt she realize that her actions could have led to Ruixiangs death? Zhong Yating is truly despicable.

Li Yi didnt doubt Li Yirans words. He continued, However, these are just speculations without substantial evidence. Also, theres another matter. Before Second Young Master left, Zhong Yating was already inquiring about his whereabouts. And most importantly, two days before the incident, Zhong Yating spent almost all her savings on a one-time defense talisman.

Although there was no concrete evidence, these clues strongly suggested Zhong Yatings involvement in orchestrating the rescue. Li Yi felt it necessary to inform Li Yiran about this promptly. Thus, after gathering these leads, he hurried back from the Hidden World without delay.

It must be Zhong Yatings doing, Li Yiran exclaimed with excitement. I never expected her to be capable of such treachery. If Ruixiang finds out, hell surely be deeply disappointed.

This news was indeed a blessing for her. Regardless of whether Zhong Yating was behind it or not, with these clues, she could ensure that Zhong Yating would be implicated.

As long as Huangfu Ruixiang learned about this, he would surely divorce Zhong Yating. And with that divorce, shed have a chance to rise. After all, she still had a child.

However, she was well aware that ascending to power wouldnt be easy. After all, there were hurdles like Huangfu Jingzhang and Zhongyu Liuying to contend with. Though they seemed supportive now, she knew it was to balance against Zhong Yating.

But if she could bring Zhong Yating down, it would be an opportunity for her. If she could marry Huangfu Ruixiang and become his legitimate wife, she and her son would be recognized in the Huangfu familys family tree.

Seeing Li Yirans silence, Li Yi thought she was overwhelmed and quickly said, Yiran, dont dwell on it too much. If Second Young Master learns of Zhong Yatings true nature, hell surely divorce her.

No man could accept being manipulated in marriage, especially when it endangered his life.

Li Yis words snapped Li Yiran out of her thoughts. She quickly masked her smile and said, Thank you, Brother Li Yi. Without you, I wouldnt have caught Zhong Yating. Then my child and I would have been under her oppression forever.

Li Yi had indeed proven invaluable. His trip to the Hidden World yielded significant information. Her act of appearing weak and helpless had paid off.

Yiran, you must take care of yourself, Li Yi urged with concern. If Zhong Yating could scheme against Second Young Master, shes definitely not kind-hearted. Im worried she might target you.

Its okay, Li Yiran rea.s.sured him. Brother Li Yi, you dont have to worry about me. She wont get the chance to scheme against me. Because

At this point, a glint of determination flashed in Li Yirans eyes. Ill expose her before she can harm me. Once her true nature is revealed, she wont be able to stay in the Huangfu family. How could she harm me then?

So, her immediate task was to find the right moment to reveal Zhong Yatings misdeeds. Only then could she ensure Zhong Yatings downfall.

Alright. Li Yi nodded. But be cautious. Dont let Zhong Yating know youre aware of these things. Otherwise, she might act out of desperation and harm you. After all, despite Zhong Yatings low cultivation, shes capable of causing you harm.

After all, Li Yiran had no innate talent for cultivation; she was just an ordinary person. If she were to truly confront Zhong Yating, it could be said that she would be virtually defenseless.

I understand. Li Yiran nodded. But, Brother Li Yi, Im currently at the ancestral mansion. Even if Zhong Yating is anxious, she wouldnt dare to act there. Even as Huangfu Ruixiangs wife, the family wouldnt tolerate her actions.

Relieved, Li Yi continued, Thats good. However, Yiran, if you need anything, just contact me directly! Whatever it is, Ill help you.

Looking at Li Yiran, Li Yis eyes were filled with tenderness.

Sensing Li Yis sentiment, a hint of disgust flickered in Li Yirans eyes. Nevertheless, she maintained a grateful smile. Okay, Brother Li Yi, youre so kind. But if I contact you often in the future, dont find me too bothersome!

Li Yi smiled sincerely. If you contact me often, Id be glad! Yiran, remember, whenever you need help, just call me anytime.
