Seeing Madam He turn silent, Lily only smiled. It seems that the woman finally realized what she had done.
“Madam,” Lin Siyang called out. “Madam Liu is here to see you. She said it is very important that you see her right now.”
“Is that so?” Lily met Madam He’s eyes. “Let her in.” She added before Madam He could say something. “Do you want to watch a show?” Lily asked her.
“What show?”
Lily shrugged in response. “You can go back to the guest room. I will call you so you can listen to our conversation.”
Madam He stared at Lily for a few minutes before she nodded. To be honest, she already saw Lily as an ally. There should be no harm in listening to her conversation with Madam Liu, right? Moreover, Lily was the one who offered it. She immediately left the terrace and went back to the guest room.
“You actually sent Mr. He the evidence of his wife’s infidelity?” Madam Liu blurted when she saw Lily. She walked towards her, furious. “Did you really want my family to suffer from all this?” She said, unaware that Lily’s phone was already connected to Madam He’s.
“What do you mean?” Lily asked. “Why don’t we take our seats first and act like normal people having a conversation?” Lily eyed Liu Chin who was following Madam Liu.
“It was you who told Mr. He that we have people following Xun Yiyi.” Liu Chin’s voice was full of accusation. She glared at Lily. “Xun Yiyi deserves to die! Why did you have to involve yourself in something that does not concern you?”
“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Lily answered. She smiled at the duo. “Are you in the wrong house?”
*BAM*
“Stop messing with us!” Liu Chin said after slamming her hand on the table. “How did Mr. He know about the affair? Why would he know we have people following Xun Yiyi around? Even Xun Yiyi is not aware of this! I am sure it was you! I know you also have people following her around. I know you are trying to spy on her too! Tell me… why did you have to tell Mr. He about it? Do you really enjoy seeing other people suffer?”
Lily held her hand up. She then turned towards her side. “Relax. They are not going to harm me in my own home.” She uttered. “They would not risk losing their heads in my mansion.”
“You—” Madam Liu said before looking at the person who seemed to magically appear behind Lily. It was the same tall guy who accompanied Lily when she visited their mansion. She gritted her teeth at Lily’s blatant threat. “Stop… threatening us! We are not as vulgar as you!”
Lily only smiled at them in response. “So… what were you saying again?”
“You— why are you protecting Xun Yiyi?” Liu Chin continued. “Because of you, we are in chaos right now! Mr. He is threatening us and it is affecting our family.”
“Are you blaming me for your problems? What? Was I the one who slept with Madam He? Was I the one who paid others just to get into my school? I don’t remember doing such things.” Lily said.
“You— “
“Stop it Chinchin. It is pointless. “Madam Liu Sighed. “Lily this is a Liu Family matter. This has nothing to do with you! Can you at least… stop being so nosy!?”
Madam Liu continued, “Lily— I am here to warn you. Stop involving yourself in our family! Stop protecting that woman!” The only person capable of having someone follow Madam He unnoticed was Lily. She was sure that when Lily noticed the Liu Family’s people following Madam He around, she immediately informed Mr. He about it. Lily was looking for ways to spite them and what better way to irritate them than protecting the woman that they wanted to die?
“So… you are saying that you want to have Xun Yiyi killed?” Lily said. “My… you are so bold, coming in here and telling me to stop what I’m doing so you can kill her. Isn’t that too evil?”
The duo turned silent. This was their last resort. They knew that Madam He was still disturbing Gannon. “She is forcing herself on my brother.” Liu Chin said. “She, a married woman, is forcing herself onto my brother!” If their grandfather gets a hold of this then Gannon’s Liu’s career is done. The strict old man might even remove him from his will! Liu Chin would never allow this to happen. “She should be ashamed of herself!”
“I see… and this was all her fault.” Lily nodded.
“Of course it is!” Liu Chin answered. “She seduced my brother even if she was married. What a slut! Just because you seem to be good friends now, doesn’t mean that you can just tolerate her.” Liu Chin added. “We are here to warn you. Don’t involve yourself in this problem. Or you will regret it!”
Lily smiled in response. “If I wanted to involve myself, I would have revealed to your grandfather and your friends that you got into your university because of money. I mean… I don’t have any reasons not to do that.” As expected, Liu Chin widened her eyes at her.
“You wouldn’t dare.”
“Why wouldn’t I?”
“Lily…” Madam Liu uttered. “Can’t you see? We have stopped disturbing you. We never invited you to our tea party again. We didn’t show your house to anyone. Can you at least… do your part and stop this? It is honestly ruining our family. As an upright woman of this society, I was actually expecting more from you. Now… I only feel nothing but disappointment.”
“Big word.” Lily said. “First, let me clarify, I did not tell Mr. He everything that Madam He did. Why would I? Will it benefit me? Will it make me more rich?” She chuckled, her eyes crinkled. “It wasn’t me. You should ask Mr. He about it yourself. I’m sure he will tell you the same thing.”
“I don’t believe you.”
“Then don’t.” Lily shrugged. “I am not involving myself in your problems. I don’t have the energy to do such unprofitable things.”
