"You're going to Japan, posing as Jiao Mei Bi to go undercover with those people?"
Li Qianfan immediately understood Jiao Yin's meaning.
Jiao Yin pouted playfully, "My dear, you wouldn't bear to let me take risks, would you?"
Shameless!
Yao Yao, sitting beside him, immediately rolled her eyes.
Jiao San, even with her as his legal wife (in Sister Yao Yao's mind, she was Li Qianfan's primary wife; other women like Sister Su Yu and a certain empress were all destined for hell as vixen spirits), daring to flirt with Li Qianfan was simply asking for a beating.
If it weren't for the sake of their arranged marriage, Yao Yao's little pink fists would have definitely landed on her face.
Similarly.
Li Qianfan was also not too accustomed to Jiao Yin's coquettish behavior towards him.
After all, before this, this woman had always been like a submissive maid kneeling at his feet, obediently opening her mouth.
Now, she was suddenly on equal footing with him.
This shift was something he couldn't accept for a while.
But for the sake of the arranged marriage—
Li Qianfan raised his hand and pushed away the red lips that had drawn near, sternly reprimanding, "Please have some self-respect. I'm not that kind of person."
Jiao Yin giggled coyly.
Yao Yao frowned and said, "Put your shamelessness aside for now. First, consider how those people found out Jiao Mei Bi went to Japan. And how they knew she was Bai Yu Jing's mother."
Yao Yao was right.
Not many people knew that Jiao Yin was not Jiao Mei Bi.
Even fewer knew that Jiao Mei Bi had been secretly taken to Japan by Du Tian Ci.
Even Tang Wen Yuan, who was with Du Tian Ci in Japan, didn't know about Jiao Mei Bi's existence.
So, the question arose.
How did the people who wanted to help Jiao Mei Bi retaliate against Li Qianfan know she was in Japan?
Don't forget that Jiao Mei Bi's "substitute," Jiao Yin, was currently by Li Qianfan's side.
"How would I know?"
After being reprimanded by Yao Yao, Jiao Yin looked dejected. "Anyway, the only ones who know that the lowly servant and I are actually two different people are you two, Eldest Sister, the people in Long Xu, and the CEO of the Dark Net. But I can assure you, the CEO wouldn't tell outsiders. After all, I'm currently safe. The one who leaked this information must be one of you."
She was right.
Yao Yao, however, was curious, "Who is your Eldest Sister?"
Li Qianfan's eyes flickered immediately.
Heh heh.
Jiao Yin giggled flirtatiously again and replied to Yao Yao, "This question is a secret between my dear, Eldest Sister, and me. No one else is qualified to know."
Yao Yao immediately looked at Li Qianfan.
Her eyes were filled with a desire to know, "Quick, tell me, who is Jiao Yin's Eldest Sister?"
"Don't listen to her nonsense. What secret?"
Li Qianfan, feeling guilty, coughed and said, "Isn't it just that Deputy Supervisor Su, to show her sincerity in defecting to us, called her 'sister' a few times? Then she shamelessly called Deputy Supervisor Su 'Eldest Sister'."
Oh.
So that's how it was.
Then why did she look so flirtatious when she called my mother "Eldest Sister"?
Yao Yao didn't quite understand matters between men and women, but she could see the change in Jiao Yin's eyes when she mentioned Su Nan Yin.
Before Yao Yao could ponder further, Li Qianfan gently patted her arm and whispered, "I think I know who leaked Jiao Mei Bi's identity."
Jiao Yin immediately suppressed her flirtatious demeanor and frowned, "Who?"
Yao Yao also quickly shifted her attention, "Yes, who?"
Li Qianfan raised both his hands and made a gesture of spreading wings to fly, "Bai Du Niao."
Bai Du Niao was composed of four people.
One of them was a super hacker.
As the siege of Blackwater Forest concluded, basic information about Bai Du Niao was gradually uncovered by the "victims."
Bai Zi Yan!
Yao Yao suddenly understood.
Yes.
The one who leaked the secrets to certain people that Jiao Mei Bi was in Japan and was not Jiao Yin could only be Bai Zi Yan.
She had once told Li Qianfan that if he could remove the hanging ghost on Chu Yazhi's back, she would tell him a very important secret (Li Qianfan had told Yao Yao about this).
This very important secret was likely related to Jiao Mei Bi.
Or, to put it bluntly, the secret related to Jiao Mei Bi was orchestrated by Bai Zi Yan.
That silver ring snake—
After killing Bai Ling Tang and using Li Qianfan's hand to injure Bai Yu Jing, she still wasn't satisfied and wanted to torment Jiao Mei Bi! She had already begun to lay plans to use certain people to make her suffer immensely!
But Jiao Mei Bi was her own biological mother.
"So it's her. Has she already colluded with those people from the island nation?"
Yao Yao muttered to herself with a frown, picked up her phone, and got out of the car, "No, I have to call her immediately and warn her."
Li Qianfan didn't stop her.
That silver ring snake, lurking in the shadows and causing trouble, indeed deserved a warning.
It was most appropriate for Yao Yao to warn her.
Bang.
As soon as Yao Yao got out of the car and closed the door, Jiao Yin eagerly asked Li Qianfan, "Who is the super hacker in Bai Du Niao?"
"I cannot tell you who she is."
Li Qianfan replied concisely, "But I can guarantee that after Yao Yao warns her, she will not dare to have any further thoughts about Jiao Mei Bi."
Jiao Yin asked again, "If she doesn't listen to your warning?"
"Then let her die."
Li Qianfan's tone was very light as he said this.
But Jiao Yin could sense that he had murderous intent towards that super hacker.
Indeed!
If it weren't for the fact that Bai Zi Yan was once a member of Bai Du Niao, even if Li Qianfan coveted her super hacking skills, simply for her daring to collude with those people from the island nation in secret, Li Qianfan would have dealt with her harshly.
Given Bai Zi Yan's intelligence, after receiving Yao Yao's warning, she would definitely stop immediately.
Otherwise, Li Qianfan sending her to her death would be a matter of seconds!
Hearing Li Qianfan say this in such a tone, Jiao Yin knew further questioning would be futile.
"However, I do think it's very feasible for you to impersonate Jiao Mei Bi and go undercover to figure out what those people are planning."
Looking at Yao Yao making a phone call in the distance, Li Qianfan thought for a moment before saying to Jiao Yin, "Of course, Jiao Mei Bi must first deal with those people insincerely. When the time comes that she needs to meet them alone, then you can step in."
Jiao Yin also glanced out the window, suddenly transforming into a python and slithering smoothly from the back seat.
She contorted her boneless body into a ball and nestled in Li Qianfan's arms, "What, you really can bear to let me take the risk? What if I fail and really give you a cuckold, will you find me dirty?"
Li Qianfan ignored the woman's theatrics and only said, "Get away, I need to call Du Tian Ci back."
The passenger seat space was very small, and with her curled up in his arms, it was truly inconvenient for him to make a call.
As he raised his hand to push her away, she took the opportunity to curl up in the narrow space under the passenger seat.
As expected of an amphibian.
In terms of contorting and hiding, she possessed almost perverse skill.
But—
She squatted in the narrow space under the passenger seat, and that was fine, but why did she also spread Li Qianfan's legs and rest her head in between?
Just then, Yao Yao finished her call and got back into the car.
Seeing her like this, she was stunned for a moment, then furious.
It was one thing for her to support Li Qianfan and Jiao Yin's arranged marriage, but it was another matter to be displeased with Jiao Yin playing such shameless games in front of her.
Seeing Yao Yao unhappy, Jiao San, who was deliberately teasing Li Qianfan, quickly gave a sheepish laugh and was about to climb out to the back seat.
But Yao Yao said to Li Qianfan, "Close your legs."
Sometimes—
Li Qianfan was quite obedient to Sister Yao Yao and immediately closed his legs.
He clasped Jiao San's head tightly.
"Let me out!"
Jiao San yelled.
But Yao Yao ignored her and started the car.
After the car drove out of the service area, Yao Yao said, "When I called her, I clearly warned her that this time would be overlooked. But the camaraderie of Bai Du Niao is canceled. If she dares to pull similar stunts next time, don't blame me for being impolite."
Mm-hmm.
Li Qianfan nodded and took out his phone to call Du Tian Ci.
The call was answered instantly.
This proved that Du Tian Ci had been patiently waiting for Li Qianfan's call all this time.
"Tian Ci."
Li Qianfan said concisely, "While ensuring Jiao Mei Bi's absolute safety, let her continue to deal with those people insincerely. As much as possible, extract more intelligence. Figure out what they intend to use Jiao Mei Bi for. If the other party requests a private meeting with her, do not refuse. Once you notify me, I will immediately send Jiao Yin over to replace Jiao Mei Bi and negotiate with those people."
"Okay, understood."
Du Tian Ci agreed readily.
"Contact me anytime if there's anything. Don't let Tang Wen Yuan know. Where is Jiao Mei Bi? Let her take the call."
For the next half hour, Li Qianfan carefully discussed the plan's details with Du Tian Ci and his wife.
During this time, Jiao San, with her head trapped, kept looking at him pitifully, hoping to be freed from the restraint quickly.
After all, it was extremely uncomfortable to be in this position for too long.
What was even more excessive—
Du Yao Yao, who was driving, would occasionally reach over and tap her on the head.
Damn it!
Jiao San thought that Li Qianfan would release her after finishing the call.
And he did have that intention.
But Yao Yao wouldn't allow it.
She said that since she liked to play like this, she should play to her heart's content, not stopping until they reached Modu!
Night fell.
This was Modu!
By the river.
An old man wearing a black trench coat, a baseball cap, and a large mask covering his face looked at the river and asked slowly, "Do you have the confidence to cause Li Qianfan some harm?"
Beside him stood a young man.
The young man was burly, with sharp facial features, and his hair was tied back in a ponytail.
He habitually crossed his arms and said stiffly, "I always regret that I was born more than twenty years too late."
The old man looked confused, "If you had been born more than twenty years earlier, you would have had the confidence to cause Li Qianfan some harm?"
"If I had been born more than twenty years earlier—"
The ponytail young man half-turned and said coldly to the elder, "Perhaps, there would be no Long Xu in this world at all!"
