“Hmph!” Yang Lina scoffed. The last time that she talked to Lily, something like this happened as well. Yang Lina can now conclude that Lily likes to send threats to people. “I can see how you love your threats,” Yang Lina sneered.
“Oh… You noticed it too?” Lily laughed before her face turned serious. “For that, I will give you fair warning. If you were the one who caused the accident, then you’d better hide. “Because I will come for you. And this, my dear, is not a threat”, Lily said. “It’s a promise.”
Yang Lina did not answer. She pursed her lips while staring at the glass of champagne in Lily’s hand. Yang Lina was not actually sure if Lily was threatening her or if she was trying to scare her. Right now, all she can see is Lily’s brilliant smile directed at her. It was something that made her instantly irritated.
“Ah… here you are.” Xuan Zeng’s sudden arrival almost made Yang Lina jump in fright. “Are you alright?” he asked Yang Lina when he noticed her stroke her chest to calm her heart. Yang Lina was not the type of woman that easily became nervous, so her actions just now immediately caught the attention of her husband.
“I am… Miss Zhuo and I were just talking.”
“Ah… Qin Jinghua. I never expected that you would reach such heights,” Xuan Zeng said as he extended his hand for a handshake.
In response, Lily took Xuan Zeng hand and smiled at him. “I am not sure if that is a compliment Mr. Xuan, but I will take it as one. Ah… I never expected that you and Miss Yang would have stayed married to each other until now, ah. This was a very pleasant surprise!”
“What is that supposed to mean?” Xuan Hui asked as he followed just moments behind his father.
“Nothing much,” Lily shrugged while giving Xuan Zeng an unfathomable look, instantly making the latter uncomfortable. “So, Mr. Xuan, how was your favorite escort?” Lily’s question was directed to Xuan Zeng. Her eyes seemed to sparkle as she enjoyed everyone’s uncomfortable expression.
“Hmmm?” Lily raised an eyebrow at the trio. However, before she could add another word, Xuan Hui’s phone rang and he answered it immediately, his eyes still firmly on Lily, scrutinizing her.
“Im sorry, what did you say?” Xuan Hui’s expression was a dead giveaway that something bad had happened. “Alright, we are coming,” he assured as he turned towards his parents. “Qin Fei is in labor. They are at the City Hospital.” Without waiting for his parents to say anything, Xuan Hui ran out of the venue, his face full of worry.
“Aiyo… my sister is giving birth at eight months? You’d better hurry Mr. Xuan, Miss Yang… who knows what will happen to…”
“Do not curse my grandchild like that!” Yang Lina hissed. She gave Lily another glare before running out. However, Xuan Zeng was different. His face was still calm as he looked at Lily.
“I suggest that you keep your mouth shut, Miss Lily. Knowing a lot of things will not bode well for you,” he warned, his face devoid of any emotion. “Why don’t you just keep that smile on your pretty face for the cameras and avoid other families’ business?” Seeing Lily just stare at him, Xuan Zeng fixed his tie and cleared his throat. Then he looked at Lily, his eyes dark and dangerous before he followed her wife and son out of the venue.

“I want you to ruin the Yang Family as soon as possible,” Lily declared the moment Zhuo Jingren started the car. They were already on their way to Sky City. She was reading the email that was sent to Zhuo Jingren’s phone containing information about the people who caused the accident. “I was planning to take care of the Qin Family first, but after tonight I realized that Yang Lina and her husband should be taken care of as soon as possible.”
Zhuo Jingren eyed Lily as he started driving out of the parking lot. “I will do it as soon as possible.”
“I knew you would say that without even asking about my plans,” Lily stated.
“I trust you,” he answered shortly, making Lily shake her head in the process.
“I want the Xuan Films,” Lily said after a few minutes of silence.
“And you need a distraction,” Zhuo Jingren said, earning a raised eyebrow from Lily. It seemed that her husband knew her too well. “Tell me, what do you want me to do?”
“Yang Lina values her family very much, so she will do everything to protect them at all costs,” Lily mused. “Because of this, I know that her protection will be focused on the most important person in her life, her son. Xuan Hui.”
“I can’t just scheme against Xuan Hui with her watching my every move, so I need for you to distract him. Make her lose her cool,” she added. “First, let’s start with Yang Sen and his wife. Yang Sen is a very stern person. If he discovers that his own daughter had been hurt by his own sister in an attempt to hide Yang Mi from him, then…”
“But Yang Lina’s target was you.”
“Yang Sen doesn’t know that,” Lily countered. “Send him the proof that Yang Mi is his daughter as well as the proof that it was Yang Lina who ordered that accident. Yang Lina and his wife He Yuyan are quite close. Yang Sen would not be so dumb as not to realize the connection between the two.”
“Brilliant,” Zhuo Jingren praised. “How about the other part of the Yang Family?”
“Do whatever you like,” Lily answered. The man next to her was exuding something dangerous, something that she had never felt before. This made her conclude that Zhuo Jingren already had a plot prepared for the Yang Family.
“After the Yang Family, will you take care of Li Tian Ya?” Zhou Jingren asked.
“Hmmm…” Lily nodded. “By the time that Yang Lina realizes my true goal, it will be too late for her to stop me from becoming the biggest shareholder of Xuan Films.”
“Oh? Just the biggest shareholder? Why not acquire them for yourself?”
“Xuan Films is the product of their blood, sweat, and tears,” Lily said. “Taking it all away in one swoop is good, but I would rather enjoy watching their faces as I slowly take it all, giving them a tiny hope, the spark of a chance that they can take it back, and then… crushing their hopes all at once.”
