The man sneered.
“In the same boat?”
“I told you that I have evidence to back it up. If you don’t help us get through this, I will reveal you to the Gu Family and Cayman Dorrans,” Ling Yan said.
The man snorted and said, “Even if they find out, you are the one who will die first and I… it will not be that easy for them to kill me.”
“You…” Ling Yan was so angry that her breathing trembled, but she had nothing to say.
“I am different from you. I have been planning every step of the way to deal with Gu Weiwei and I am ready to fight against Cayman Dorrans. So even if they know that I am the culprit, I am not afraid.” The man sized up the desperate woman in front of him and sneered. “But if you are discovered by them, you will die.”
“What… are you going to do to get me through this?” Ling Yan gritted her teeth and asked him. “I can do anything, I don’t want to die yet,” she said.
“Anything?” The man sized up the woman who was begging him, and smiled mockingly. “Sorry, I really can’t tell what you are worth.”
She was above average in terms of looks but she was not smart enough, if she was she wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Therefore, he would be an idiot if he wasted his time on such a useless person.
“Please, help me one more time. I don’t want to die, I really don’t want to die.” Seeing that threatening him was useless, Ling Yan begged him for help.
However, he was not moved by her tears and begging.
“You are not going to live for long anyway. You have Gu Weiwei’s heart, and you will have made a fortune this year. Don’t be so greedy.”
He did have the ability to save her, but it was not worth the effort to save such a worthless person.
Ling Yan burst into tears. Was she really out of options?
That man looked at her coldly, leaned forward and whispered, “Since you helped kill Gu Weiwei back then, I will show you another way.”
He had to admit that Gu Weiwei’s death had dealt a huge blow to Cayman Dorrans. He had become very haggard after hearing the news.
He even became seriously ill and went to the hospital.
“What way?” Ling Yan asked.
The man smiled and said, “Didn’t you say that Gu Weiwei’s soul is still in this world because of the Nine-Eyed Pearl?”
Startled, Ling Yan did not understand what he meant.
Seeing her confused expression, the man continued.
“The owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl is here to tell Gu Siting where Gu Weiwei is. If the Heavenly Jewel is destroyed, will that person be able to tell them where Gu Weiwei is?”
“Or rather, without the Nine-Eyed Pearl, would Gu Weiwei still be here?”
…
Hearing his words, Ling Yan suddenly became more cheerful.
Yes, it was all because of the Nine-Eyed Pearl.
Without that thing, the owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl would not be able to tell Gu Siting anything about Gu Weiwei. In fact, without the Nine-Eyed Pearl, Gu Weiwei’s soul would not exist in this world.
Why had she not thought of this solution before? She might not be able to kill Mu Weiwei, but she could definitely get the Nine-Eyed Pearl from the Gu Family.
