Chapter 1293: Chapter 1293: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes (3)

“I simply dislike you as a person,” Lin Zhi said without looking at Ye Qilan, clearly impatient.

She genuinely couldn’t find anything likable about the man beside her.

Ye Qilan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, “Madam, do you dislike me because you think I’ve stolen Mo Li’s affection? Matters of the heart cannot be forced. You, Madam, should know this principle; do I need to teach you?”

“It’s your tone of speech that makes me dislike you,” Lin Zhi quickened her pace as she spoke.

Watching Lin Zhi’s retreating figure, Ye Qilan softly started, “Or is it because I disrupted your good plans today that you find me displeasing?”

Lin Zhi paused slightly, turning back to look at Ye Qilan with a gentle smile: “Ding Ye, I advise you not to be too presumptuous.”

After speaking, she drove away.

Ye Qilan also got into his car afterward, and Xiaohe asked, “Lin Zhi appeared at the Ye Family’s today by coincidence, what do you think about that?”

When Ye Qilan learned that Lin Zhi had hurried over to the Ye Family, he too immediately left his work and rushed to the Ye Family with a check.

“The grievances between Lin Zhi and the Ye Family have a long history. Logically speaking, Lin Zhi has no reason to hate the Ye Family since she ended up with Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng’s current achievements are extraordinary, so Lin Zhi hasn’t suffered any losses, hence, she shouldn’t have any reason to target the Ye Family,” Ye Qilan muttered to himself.

However, the sensation Lin Zhi gave him was out of the ordinary. Usually, he only felt this sense of crisis when he faced a formidable opponent. Thus, Lin Zhi was somewhat sinister; definitely not a benevolent character.

“Yet, I feel that Lin Zhi is not someone to be underestimated. Sir, don’t forget that one incident after another befell people from the Ye Family right around the time Lin Zhi returned to Taicheng,” Xiaohe’s eyes sparkled: “The strangest part is, Lin Zhi has frequently appeared around the Ye Family members.”

Ye Qilan immediately took interest, the corners of his mouth curling slightly, “Go on!”

“After the Ye Family moved to Taicheng, they held a large-scale dinner party, and on that occasion, Lin Zhi was there. That day, Madam went downstairs to buy cold medicine for Sir, and coincidentally, she ran into Lin Zhi. Later, Sir had an incident, and Lin Zhi was keenly involved in connecting Madam and Mo Li. Finally, Jiangyin Group also intended to purchase the Ye Family’s company. All of these incidents, can they really just be coincidences?” Xiaohe analyzed logically.

This time, Ye Qilan looked at Xiaohe with newfound respect. He had never connected Lin Zhi with the troubles of the entire Ye Family before, until today when Lin Zhi suddenly showed up wanting to buy the Ye Family villa, which made him start to suspect Lin Zhi.

Yet, no matter what, he still couldn’t find any motive for Lin Zhi to target the Ye Family, without a motive, he couldn’t make a definitive conclusion.

“If you think Lin Zhi is the person behind the scenes, then tell me, why would she target the Ye Family, why would she want me dead?” Ye Qilan countered.

“Lin Zhi wants you dead, clearly because you are standing in her way. As for the motive, perhaps it’s because the Ye Family once drove Ye Zheng and her away from Taicheng, she harbors resentment for that,” Xiaohe figured, only this explanation made sense.

“This doesn’t add up. A woman chosen by Ye Zheng should have a considerable degree of tolerance. If she wanted revenge merely because the Ye Family drove them out, the reason isn’t convincing enough. Moreover, Ye Zheng isn’t like me; he isn’t someone who seeks revenge for every grievance,” said Ye Qilan, dismissing the possibility of Ye Zheng and Lin Zhi being behind the scenes.
