Chapter 404: Why Don’t You Envy Her?
"Could it be that you think she’s worried about you?" Xiao Qi sneered, "She once was Old Sir Yan’s lover, yet she got involved with his own grandson. Old Sir Yan clearly ordered her to be dealt with, but she turned around and ended up back with Nie Qing. Do you think a woman like that would be desperate? Hmph, I can’t believe it!"
Robert became increasingly embarrassed: "I already know all about this... I really understand what kind of person she is!"
"Robert, are you really aware?" Jason suddenly spoke up.
Sensing the shift in Jason’s tone, Robert nodded repeatedly: "Yes! I know what I’m doing! I’m helping her not because I’m bewitched by her, but because..."
He seemed hesitant: "In any case, when the time is right, I’ll tell you all!"
Jason gave him a serious look and finally nodded: "Alright then, we believe you!"
"Jason!" Xiao Qi was not in agreement.
"Xiao Qi, let’s trust him this once." Jason smiled, "He doesn’t seem like someone who’s been led astray by a woman. I think he knows what he’s doing."
Robert felt a bit sullen, but earnestly nodded.
Xiao Qi, typically trusting Jason’s judgment, could only huff: "Alright then, but listen, if you’re fooled by that woman again, I won’t help you at all. You can just wait to die!"
Robert touched his nose with a bitter smile and nodded repeatedly.

Yan Sijue and Mu Yiliang arrived in City A by evening.
After getting off the plane, Yan Sijue sent the woman in his arms into the car when suddenly Yang Ru hurried over, reporting a few words in a low voice.
The man furrowed his brows and whispered an order: "Have someone keep an eye on her. Don’t let her escape."
"Understood."
Yang Ru took the order and left, making Mu Yiliang aware of something, and she asked in realization: "Is... Su Yan found?"
Yan Sijue instructed the driver to start the car, holding her in his arms, and softly replied: "At least these days didn’t go to waste."
"Will she cooperate with you?"
Yan Sijue curled his lips: "She will. Everyone has a weakness, even Su Yan is no exception."
Mu Yiliang was a bit worried: "If she doesn’t want to cooperate, what do you plan to do with her?"
He looked down at her, raising an eyebrow: "Why, are you feeling sorry for her?"
Mu Yiliang glared at him: "What nonsense are you saying? I just think she’s a bit pitiful... I know how tough it is for a woman to live in such an environment, and after all, she hasn’t committed any heinous acts, has she?"
This woman’s strength was in the fact that even though she stood on the opposing side, she never truly did anything to harm them, maintaining a stance as if she could collaborate with anyone. Otherwise, how could Ye Moran have fallen for it?
Even for Yan Sijue, the target of his hatred was Nie Qing, not Su Yan. Mu Yiliang actually admired her in some way, feeling a strange sense of kinship...
Yet Yan Sijue laughed menacingly: "Why are you so kind to women? Forget Su Yan, even Chen Yayan, you never seemed to resent her, did you? Is it just because you trust me?"
"Of course not...it’s just that what happens between us has never involved a third person. If Chen Yayan could win you over, that would be her ability. Why would I have any reason to resent her?" Mu Yiliang looked puzzled.
