Ye Wanwan looked at Xu Yi with glistening eyes-- it's almost time to form an alliance . . .

Under Xu Yi's terrified gaze, Ye Wanwan spoke frankly, "Housekeeper Xu, I don't want to hide this from you anymore . Everything I'm doing right now is definitely to preserve my life, but I'm not just concerned about my life--I'm also trying to help you .

I know Si Ye Han entrusted you with all matters concerning me, and if anything happened to me, the first person he'd blame would be you . So, why don't we work together?"

Xu Yi looked at this girl who had seemingly undergone a transformation and his expression changed slightly, "Work together? What do you mean?"

Ye Wanwan narrowed her eyes, "I don't want to make the same mistakes I made before in Jin garden . Regarding someone as unpredictable and violent as Si Ye Han, you've been by his side for many years and you know his limits best . If you drop some hints during critical moments to prevent me from provoking him, I think this would be beneficial for the both of us . What do you think?

Ye Wanwan's idea seemed alright but it scared Xu Yi at the same time .

Isn't this being a traitor!?

This Ye Wanwan is too bold!

Ye Wanwan looked at Xu Yi, easily reading his mind . She murmured casually, "Don't look like that . Firstly, I'm not asking you to reveal any top secrets and secondly, I'm not asking you to do anything that would harm your master . Even if Si Ye Han found out, it wouldn't impact you in any way . . . "

Ye Wanwan then paused to gather her thoughts then continued speaking, gazing off into the distance, "Furthermore, I might become the matriarch of the Si family in future, meaning I'll become your future master . Up until now, I'm the only woman Si Ye Han has brought to meet the old madam . If you ever provoke Si Ye Han by accident or get yourself in trouble, I'll be able to blow the pillow [1] to put in some good words for you, allowing you to keep your place and live a worry-free life . Even if I fall out with Si Ye Han one day, I'll make sure not to cause any trouble during your s.h.i.+ft . . . " 

Upon hearing what Ye Wanwan said, Xu Yi was stunned once again .

Not just stunned--he was totally flabbergasted .

This woman really knows how to stir up one's emotions with her lies--there was a split second there when I was really moved! 

It's just . . . why do I have the strange feeling that I'm like an imperial butler being bribed by the Emperor's favourite concubine . . .

"Housekeeper Xu, do think about it, alright?" Ye Wanwan then got out of the car .

If it was Liu Ying, she wouldn't have considered making a proposal like this to him .

But Xu Yi was different; Xu Yi was tactful and smooth in managing social relations and he was also Si Ye Han's right-hand man . If she could get Xu Yi's a.s.sistance, her days would go a lot easier .

Xu Yi sat in the driver's seat in a daze, watching as Ye Wanwan walked away and pondered . . .

After she departed, Ye Wanwan found her way to her uncle's mansion, relying on her memory .

She stood at the entrance for a long time and decided to sneak in quietly from the back door of the little garden .

She didn't want to shock them with her sudden appearance, so she decided she would only observe them from afar to see how they were doing .

But the moment she entered, she suddenly spotted the familiar figure of her mother .

Ye Wanwan rushed to hide behind the trees instinctively and carefully peered in the direction of her mother through the gaps .

All she saw was her mom's face, once youthful and radiant, now aged many years . She was so skinny that it looked like a gust of wind could blow her away . At the moment, she was carrying a large basket of clothes and hanging them outside to dry .

Ye Wanwan knew from a single glance that those weren't just her parents' clothes . The pink item was obviously Liang s.h.i.+ Han's dress, and that royal blue suit and long bright red skirt probably belonged to her uncle and auntie . . .

Ye Wanwan looked at Xu Yi with glistening eyes-- its almost time to form an alliance . .
