“nothing much. he’s not really good-looking or capable. not my type,” yin xun said bluntly.

liu ying rolled her eyes. “you’re quite honest.”

yin xun said, “honesty is a virtue.”

liu ying looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh. she said in despair, “i knew you wouldn’t like him. even i don’t think he’s great. turning him down is expected, but my life will be difficult again in the future.”

if liu cheng did not know that liu ying wanted to take the family assets, she could still be a little princess at home like before.

now, liu cheng felt she was a threat, so he would not let her stay at home just like that. his parents were biased from the start and always listened to liu cheng. now, they were even more wary of her.

kinship should be a good thing. it was filled with love and sincerity, provided that no one talked about money.

ordinary families might fight to the death over tens of thousands, let alone a big family like theirs.

looking at liu ying’s sad expression, although yin xun sympathized with her, she would not help her just because she was pitiful.

however, she might be able to help liu ying from another angle.

“it’s okay. when we earn big money in the future, you can prove your worth. if you don’t have money now, you can let me know any time. after all, you’re my business partner. if i don’t help you, who else can you turn to?” yin xun comforted her.

back then, under the influence of yin mo and si fan, liu ying had always thought that yin xun was a petty and annoying person. it was only when she was in genuine trouble and at her lowest point that she realized who was the good guy.

liu ying looked at yin xun, feeling touched. just as she was about to thank her, yin xun spoke again.

“for now, 1 can just deduct the amount from your dividends.”

liu ying,”…”

‘yeah, 1 was overthinking things.’

“it’s understandable that you don’t like my brother, but my brother likes you. you have to be careful in the future. although he’s not very capable, he can be very stubborn in certain aspects. a person who is less bright might not think about the consequences.” although liu ying knew yin xun was capable, she could not help but give her a warning.

she knew that yin xun was currently fighting against si fan. si fan was not easy to deal with. if liu cheng came to cause trouble in the midst of that, it would be hard to predict the outcome.

yin xun smiled and thanked her. “thank you for the reminder. i’ll be careful.”

liu ying turned around in disdain. “i’m doing this for money. if something happens to you, i’ll lose out.”

yin xun smiled but did not say anything.

after the morning run, yin xun bid farewell to fang yao, took a shower, and took a bite of food before driving to the company.

just as expected, mary received a call from si xia in the afternoon. she had already returned to the si residence, but yin mo was not around. after asking si fan about it, si xia said that she might not be coming back.

si xia felt that since yin mo was no longer showing her face, there was no need for her to work with mary anymore. si xia annulled her agreement with mary, saying that she did not care anymore.

fortunately, yin xun had already given mary a heads-up about this possibility. although she was a little flustered, she did not let it show and responded according to yin xun’s instructions.

“miss si, the most important thing when working together is sincerity. if you won’t be honest, there’s nothing 1 can do. i can’t force you. as you wish, we’ll cancel the collaboration. i hope you won’t regret it. remember, it’s too late to regret things after they’re over.” with that, she hung up before si xia could say anything.

yin xun listened from the side. after mary hung up the phone, mary could no longer hold back her emotions. she covered her face and wept.

she was crying not because she failed to save her brother, but because her parents had always asked to exchange her life for her brother’s. he was the only son in their family. if her brother died, they would not have anyone to carry the lineage. her parents even said that after they raised mary, it was time for her to repay them.

when yin xun heard mary’s story, she was slightly shocked.

she knew that many parents favored boys over girls, thinking that girls were a liability and that boys were the heirs. however, she did not expect mary’s parents to feel so strongly about it that they did not even care if mary lived or died.

parents like these were disappointing.

yin xun comforted mary. “it’s just the beginning. don’t be anxious. we need to follow the plan step by step. do as i say and spread the news that yin mo is in prison. let si fan know. however, you should change up the reason for her imprisonment.”

yin mo had not gone back to report to si fan, but si fan had no intention of looking for her. he must have realized that yin mo had failed, so it was useless even if she came back

if si fan learned that yin mo had succeeded but was imprisoned for some other reason, he would definitely be anxious to bring yin mo out..
