"I think you need to move as soon as possible." Mo Li said.
"Why is that?"
"Lizzy is already scheming against you. That woman is half crazy. You should —"
Seeing Li Yue's blank expression made Mo Li realize that she was not really planning to show him the cunning side of her. He stopped talking and just helped her with the food instead. There was no point in talking to someone who was able to fool everyone for years.
He knew Li Yue would not just trust his words like that. But… didn't he become the way he was now to protect her? Since Li Yue insisted on staying here then he would do everything he could to keep her safe.
What Mo Li didn't know is the fact that Li Yue knew what he was thinking about. Li Yue knew that he would assign people on this floor to guard her. She also knew that he would assign people to escort her everyday. Or at least that's what her instinct told her.
And just like what Li Yue predicted, Mo Li immediately assigned some of his people to guard Li Yue twenty four seven. Without telling Li Yue, Mo Li had someone observe the Lu Family, especially Lizzy Lu and Lu Xinyi. He even planned to keep the two busy by creating some drama online that would attempt at ruining Lu Xinyi's name?
Well… that was indeed a very good plan. Except… Li Yue already thought of that before she even arrived in this city.
…
The next day, Li Yue went to visit the Li Family mansion. This time she went to talk to Li Weiwei and the people who raised the original Li Yue. To be honest, she felt nothing but indifference for these people. However, she figured that she, at least needed to thank them for taking care of the previous Li Yue. After all, this might be the last time that they would have a serious conversation about the past.
Moreover, Li Yue was also here with another deeper goal. Aside from getting the revenge of the original body's killer, and saying her thanks to the parents who raised her, Li Yue was also here to create a war.
If one would ask her against who, Li Yue would only say one thing. Everyone.
Before coming here, Li Yue had already sorted everything that she needed to do. First was to create chaos, she wanted to stir up the waters and catch some fishes. Not literally of course.
Li Yue wanted the Lu Family and Li Family to have an all out war. She would then use this war to make the Lu Family busy. Second was to observe and read the situation. Li Yue needed to assess if her previous conjecture about Lizzy Lu and Lu Xinyi being the new villain that would soon attempt to kill Xia Jin was accurate. And third was to wait.
Li Yue would stand by the Li Family's side as she waited for an opportunity to save Xia Jin. Li Yue was already clear that the plot was already different from the previous one and all she could do now was rely on her ability to become victorious in this world.
Moreover, with the female lead by her side, Li Yue knew that she would have a big chance in saving the male lead.
"Sister Yue… I was not expecting that you would visit today!" Li Weiwei beamed. The two were currently walking in the garden where they first saw each other all those years ago.
"Well… since I am making the painting, I believe it would be good to use my talent to help you out with the wedding too. After the wedding, I am planning to leave and might not come back. So…" Li Yue feigned sadness as she lowered her head and bit her lips. Seeing this Li Weiwei immediately held her hand.
"Is that really a final decision? Are you really going to travel after my wedding?"
"Yes. I honestly don't see myself living in this city while doing what I love the most."
Li Weiwei held Li Yue's hands until the two arrived in the outdoor seating area. "Are you going to tell mother and father about this decision?" Li Weiwei asked.
"I don't think so." Li Yue said. Right now, her understanding about Li Weiwei was considered very good. She knew that Li Weiwei had this weird sense of justice. She liked saving everyone, she would stop her car to save her enemy. Hell, this woman would even stop her car to save a frog!
This was the reason why, every time some injustice happened in front of her, Li Weiwei would immediately act and help out. She was the type of female lead that would start a war alone just to save her village. The foolish and unselfish one. Of course, this type of attitude was extremely infuriating to Li Yue.
However, this was also something that she could take advantage of.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"I just…" Li Yue bit her lips again. She started fidgeting which immediately made the heroic lead curious. "Coming back in this place is extremely traumatic for me. My therapist … I actually don't have a therapist here that I can talk to and I don't have a family so…"
"You can talk to me! Of course you can talk to me!"
"I just… Weiwei…" Li Yue made a deliberate pause. "Weiwei… I think you should be more careful with the way that you interact with your aunt and grandmother."
"What do you mean?"
"Please… Please don't believe any of my words without proof but… before you came here someone pushed me down the stairs. I was bedridden for a few days and was even unconscious. I'm sure you can confirm this with the butler and our parents." Li Yue said. "Many thought it was nothing but an accident."
"It wasn't?" Li Weiwei let out a gasp. "You—"
"I heard a secret Li Weiwei. And I am telling you… it wasn't a small one." Li Yue said, her face extremely serious. "But.. You have to promise me. Do not believe any of my words… unless you find proof that I am indeed telling the truth. Can I trust you on this?"
