My Scheming Little Devil

"He may be able to control others, but don’t even think about trying to control me, Jun Huang!" Third Young Master Jun’s voice was powerful and forceful, and his eyes revealed a chill so icy and a bloodthirstiness and wild fury that swirled to extremes, betraying his unwavering determination to defy his godfather.

"Somebody needs to tell him what an unyielding will means, what failure is. He is not the strongest."

Ye Lu’s heart trembled, deeply feeling his determination to break away and fight his godfather.

She was deeply moved and gazed at him earnestly. What touched her the most was his unyielding and powerful will when facing danger and challenges, and his ever-proud, unsubmissive, unbowed pride – the true mark of a man with passion!

She clasped his hand tightly, her gaze intense and bright, and her heart surged with fervor.

"Facing such a terrifying and powerful person, I know it’s difficult, but no matter what happens, I will stand by you, and we will overcome this mad old man together!"

Third Young Master Jun also held her hand, his heart warmed like spring, and his lips curved into a breathtakingly beautiful smile.

"Mad old man – that’s just a nickname. Actually, I came to this region for a reason. The godfather was born here, but when I investigated his past, there were many vague and unclear parts. To fight him, we have to grasp his weaknesses. We know too little about him, and it puts us at a disadvantage!"

Ye Lu nodded but felt puzzled: "One thing I really can’t understand is why the godfather is so persistent about you marrying Yiren. Over and over again, even though you refuse, he is not deterred. Ivanov’s family is indeed powerful and worth allying with, but with the godfather’s power, he doesn’t strictly need Ivan and his daughter. However, he clearly has a high level of interest in them, and now he even personally comes to their rescue."

Ye Lu frowned, faintly feeling that there was something odd about it all.

What could be so important that it made the godfather so persistent?

"You’re right,"

Third Young Master Jun was somewhat surprised by Su Feiman’s attempts to repeatedly match him with Yiren.

The godfather, as a person, would never force something again if it failed—he was the type who knew best not to waste time on things that wouldn’t succeed.

The godfather’s behavior in the matter of Ivan and his daughter wasn’t like his usual decisive manner.

He knitted his brows, his eyes smoky, and his handsome face sketched a profoundly meaningful and darkly joyous smile:

"I think, there must be something on Ivan and his daughter that makes the godfather think it’s worth the effort. If we can find out the reason for his persistence, I think it will be the breakthrough we need to defeat him!"

Ye Lu’s eyes sparkled, but she also knew that finding out the godfather’s thoughts wouldn’t be easy.

Because the old man was inscrutable and never revealed his plans. However, now that she knew, she would do whatever it took to uncover this secret. He was Third Young Master Jun’s enemy, and thus Ye Lu’s enemy—she was fiercely protective.

At that moment, Feiyu burst in, his eyes full of surprise and delight.

"Lie Feng’s come back, he just contacted us on a secure line."

Third Young Master Jun’s eyes also lit up, his face revealing a smile: "I knew Lie Feng wouldn’t be so easily subdued by those people. Feiyu, hurry, go and bring him here."

Third Young Master Jun’s voice couldn’t hide his joy, and Ye Lu, observing his concerned and exhilarated expression, knew that he truly cared for and valued his subordinates.

Since this sanatorium was one of their secret hideaways, Lie Feng didn’t know where it was, so Feiyu had gone to bring him back.

An extra update, crying, I’m exhausted.
