章節 1263: All the clues point to one place

Si Mingli wanted to eliminate her multiple times even when Si Yehan was still there. Not to mention now that Si Yehan was missing with his fate unknown…

"You're Ah-Jiu's confidant. You'd also be in danger if you returned to the Si residence," Ye Wanwan said while looking at Xu Yi.

However, Xu Yi helplessly smiled and said, "Miss Wanwan, no need to worry about me… My father predicted this outcome when Si Mingli returned, so he swallowed his pride and was the first to pledge fealty to Si Mingli, along with the entire Xu family…"

"I was also forced to swear to be loyal to Si Mingli against my conscience. Hence, Si Mingli treats the Xu family quite well and isn't harsh on us."

Ye Wanwan nodded when she heard Xu Yi's explanation. This was actually a fairly smart method. Since Si Mingli dared to return, Xu Yi had to be well-prepared.
