"They came just to test the waters and left. Their real purpose probably wasn't assassination. If this person was the one Chu Nanxi saw last night, Chu Nanxi's goal was definitely to get rid of me. But this person didn't try to kill me, which means Chu Nanxi must have told him that I am a woman. This fellow came to see what I look like, hoping to take me for himself. Only that way could I be driven away from your side."
Beigong Ying's expression at this moment was as dark as pitch. He had never imagined that Chu Nanxi would stoop to such filthy tactics. Yun Li looked at Beigong Ying's blackened face and the corners of her mouth curled up into a slight smile: "Ah, to think that back in the Dark Moon Ghost Forest, someone was being awfully protective of Eldest Miss Chu. Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Upon hearing Yun Li's words, Beigong Ying's face grew even darker, looking somewhat flustered and exasperated: "I wasn't trying to protect her back then, I was just trying to mislead her to investigate the Chu Family's affairs, not for her sake!"
