My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2090: Things Have Changed

"No matter what, with surveillance proof that I took it, I have nothing to say."

"So you admit it?"

"Yes."

"..." Madam Aisha immediately slumped to the ground, her face pale. She knew full well what terrible consequences an admission would bring—Yiyi would go to prison, and awful things would happen there. Her life would be ruined.

"Don’t try to clear my name; it’s useless. Their evidence is solid, and I can’t dispute it." Jun Yiyi crouched down and gently held Madam Aisha’s hands. "The only thing I’m worried about is you. You’ll have to live alone, so you must listen carefully to what I have to say."

Then Jun Yiyi began endlessly instructing Madam Aisha on various daily matters to pay attention to. They were all trivial women’s matters, and the staff member monitoring them was getting drowsy from listening. Women really are chatty and dull.

"But I also left some money before, enough for you to live without worries." Jun Yiyi glanced at the staff member, who was now visibly impatient and playing with his phone, her eyes narrowing slightly. "The bank password is..."

She leaned over to Madam Aisha’s ear and whispered something softly.

Madam Aisha’s pupils constricted as she looked at her in surprise and nodded knowingly.

The conversation ended quickly, and Jun Yiyi was taken back to a secret place to be watched, waiting silently. This was the last hope—the only person who could save her was Helian Ling Kong.

Logically, this man should have nothing to do with her now, but she had a premonition that if she truly asked him for help, he wouldn’t ignore her life and death.

Why did she still have this confidence?

Despite not wanting to admit it, she believed that if he were in danger, she couldn’t ignore him. Likewise, he couldn’t entirely ignore her.

No matter how hard she tried, it couldn’t overcome the deep instinctual ties of emotion.

Yes, she couldn’t deny it. Even now, she still harbored an inexplicable, trembling feeling towards him.

So she had Madam Aisha, under the pretext of providing information, find an opportunity to approach Helian Ling Kong and persuade him to lend a hand.

...

Five days passed, but no news came. Jun Yiyi couldn’t help but frown. Could there have been a change in the situation?

Soon enough, an unexpected yet anticipated person came to resolve her confusion. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Lie Fengzi appeared at the place where she was held, wearing a victorious and arrogant smile, looking down at her like a conqueror.

"From birth until now, I, Lie Fengzi, have never spent so much time and effort to deal with a woman."

"So, should I feel honored?" Jun Yiyi sneered. What a shameless woman, but indeed well-concealed. In the few encounters she had with her, she never showed any hostility, so naturally, she was not on guard.

But this woman was like a snake in the water, having targeted her.

"You truly should feel honored for making me expend such great efforts to eliminate you! You’re a rare opponent that I find both troublesome and filled with a sense of achievement upon vanquishing. But no matter how smart you are, you can’t outsmart me; for women, power and status determine the outcome. A commoner like you shouldn’t dream of overturning this principle!" Lie Fengzi spoke with extreme arrogance.

Jun Yiyi chuckled, "And that’s not even your own ability. Were you not a duke’s daughter, you might not have been able to deal with me, and there’s nothing to be proud of in that."

"You’re right, but wasn’t the final result that I won?" Lie Fengzi smiled radiantly, "The result is all I care about."
