She Became A Downfall Noble Lady

Upon hearing Jinrong’s question, Ye Xinyan’s gaze flickered, and out of helplessness, she had no choice but to turn around and sit back down in her original seat.

Jinrong had touched on a critical point. Qi Younian was not a man to stick to old ways or be content with tranquility; otherwise, he wouldn’t have left home as a youth and never looked back for decades. Now that he had built a prosperous construction business, owning quite a few tools that enhanced construction efficiency, the prospects were promising. Regardless, the old man would never stop.

Even if Ye Xinyan told the old master about Jinrong’s plans and the risks involved, hmph, the old master had aged but was still a man—a man with vigor whose ambition would only soar in the face of family glory. He would never back down due to unknown dangers.

To rise with Jinrong’s success was to attain the Dragon’s Merit. Since ancient times, countless people have risked their fortunes and lives for this, not to mention the old master’s heartfelt admiration for Jinrong.

Jiang Yifan sighed quietly and sat back down as well. Prince Yu managed to gather numerous talents and officials not solely by virtue of being a prince. His sharp insights and sincerity in treating people were also key in attracting talents.

Jinrong asked Ye Xinyan, "Have you thought it through?"

Ye Xinyan glared at them both with resentment before turning her gaze away. She thought, "You’re both going to get me killed, what else is there to say?"

Jiang Yifan innocently bore the brunt of Ye Xinyan’s anger but was powerless to do anything. Previously he had not cared, never worrying about what Ye Xinyan’s future would be like. But now, the village wife Qi Ye had caught the attention of many powers, and it was impossible to extract her from their midst.
