This person... their strength is unfathomable—it’s definitely not their strongest state right now.
What’s worse, Sui Yi suspected that her position might even be higher than that of Yue Beiqing’s trio.
Commander-in-chief?
Sui Yi stopped thinking further, just furrowing her brow, "Telling you is useless, they will force to take a second path, and this path, quite obviously, is not the sa as yours."
This left Pu Qinghan sowhat puzzled; after all, although she was clever, she might not understand these matters of politics and national affairs.
But Sui Yi understood, which is why from the beginning she knew what she was facing was not just an enemy like ID, but also... officials represented by Yue Beiqing and even Yi Chilian.
The situation changes, friends can also be enemies.
—If the officials choose to sacrifice Gong Jiu and Pu Qinghan and Su Zimu for the sake of the weapons...
Don’t doubt this possibility; in fact, there’s no need for doubt at all.
Ming Lanyuan’s statent was an affirmation: "Gong Jiu is still perfectly fine, and I have helped rescue Miss Pu too... What else are you worried about~~ Besides, cooperating with us is of great benefit to you, sothing you know full well."
Pu Qinghan understood.
It was a transaction between the officials and Sui Yi.
—I ensure the safety of your people, but in return for the cooperation, you share the information we want to know...
"It seems you’ve forgotten soone,"
"Su Zimu? I rember, she’s not that close to you... You’ve t her no more than three tis, right? Or did a al at the Su Family’s house make you think of her as a close friend? And here I was, making cookies for you myself~" Ming Lanyuan’s words were always sowhat leisurely and casual, yet contained plenty of information and attitude...
All her actions were preditated—starting from the first glance she saw Sui Yi in the villa.
She had already marked Sui Yi as a crucial elent in this event.
Such terrifying skillfulness, such terrifying scheming.
Pu Qinghan felt increasingly that being a spy or anything of the sort was quite like entering the mouth of a tiger...
"I promised,"
"What?"
"Her life and fortune were entrusted to , I accepted, it’s a promise."
It wasn’t because of who she was, nor because of how strong or bad those wanting to harm her were, but simply because it was my promise.
Nothing more, nothing less.
The conversation between Sui Yi and Ming Lanyuan wasn’t face-to-face. As the three of them quickly left the underground prison, Sui Yi spoke and walked towards the exit. When it ca to not wanting to waste ti, they were of the sa mind.
But as they were walking and talking, such a calm statent from Sui Yi caused Ming Lanyuan’s step to falter montarily, before she caught up, "But how can you be so sure that sothing will happen to her, her identity is no trivial matter, we might not give her up... By the way, let tell you, she’s my cousin, I won’t just stand by and do nothing."
"That’s not important,"
Ming Lanyuan raised an eyebrow.
"The information she knows... I’m afraid she has already told your superiors—I believe in her intelligence, she would not fail to see the grave dangers of this villa, and her relationship with you is sufficient for her to predict the peril of the situation. Hence, before coming here, she would have pre-emptively passed on the information to soone from your organization... That’s why your people are so knowledgeable about the weapons..."
On this point, Su Zimu deceived the three of them, making them believe that she indeed had official protection. In reality, the mont she handed over that information, she had already lost her protective ace, and could at any mont make a sacrifice for the Nation—because she wouldn’t give the sa information to ID.
This was the quality that Sui Yi saw through in Su Zimu early on.
It was also one of the reasons why she wanted to save this girl.
—Besides, the fact that the other party specifically nad her to be involved ant that there were definitely other reasons behind it.
Ming Lanyuan’s expression vaguely changed; Pu Qinghan was acting, but she suddenly felt that what Sui Yi said was, to this person, a kind of psychological attack, at least just a mont ago, there was a flash of astonishnt and gloom...
At this mont, they had just arrived at the staircase by the well.
Ming Lanyuan stopped and said, "So, Miss Sui, are you blaming for being heartless enough to sacrifice my own cousin?"
Sui Yi turned to look at her: "There’s no need to be so certain about things that haven’t happened yet, besides, whatever happens between you, whether willing or not, is not my place to judge..."
After speaking, she climbed up the ladder, with Pu Qinghan behind her, followed by Ming Lanyuan...
The three of them reached the top of the well, and Pu Qinghan could finally breathe in so fresh air. Ming Lanyuan glanced around, tossed her long hair, and said indifferently: "However, indeed, as you said, because I am here, Yi Chilian’s group will not waste manpower to rescue people, as they are certain that ID will eventually get the location of the weapons, and will take away those who cannot be killed... From a cold-blooded and ruthless perspective, we are certainly qualified."
