222 Lin Zhou: Do You Have Another Aim? (2/2)

Yao Ling softly asked, ”What do you want to do?”

”Just like I said... find out the reasons why Han Xiang is targeting me... well... what about the marriage? Are you still going to ruin it after knowing that Han Xiang isn't the real daughter?” Xiao Fang asked hesitantly.

Yao Ling nodded without any hesitation.

”Why?” Xiao Fang furrowed her eyebrows.

”At first, we didn't want to meddle with this thing anymore. However, you also heard what the scholars had said back then. There is something fishy about this marriage too... It happened too sudden and somehow... our gut feelings said that it would lead to war if the marriage alliance continues...” Yao Ling briefly explained.

Xiao Fang contemplated and understood that what Yao Ling said was making sense, so she finally decided that Yao Ling didn't lie to her. ”I also plan to ruin this marriage...” Xiao Fang said.

Yao Ling was taken aback. ”But, why? This is unrelated to you now. Is... it for Han Xiang?”

Xiao Fang didn't know how to answer Yao Ling's question. If she said yes, would she think that she was stupid for caring about her even after all that happened?

Yao Ling sighed, knowing that Xiao Fang was too soft-hearted. If what she wanted to do wasn't the same as them, she probably would persuade her to give up the idea of helping Han Xiang again. Fortunately, they had the same goal even though it was for different reasons.

”You are too kind, but very well... let's do our best! We can easily handle Han Xiang's matter though things would get a bit ugly. Are you really in for it?” Yao Ling asked.

Xiao Fang nodded. ”I'm in,” she said resolutely.

”Go and rest for one day. I will talk about the plan with the men and tomorrow, I let you know about it,” Yao Ling ordered Xiao Fang.

”Why can't I join you?” Xiao Fang asked while furrowing her eyebrows. She wanted to do something so she could forget about the truth for a little bit.

Yao Ling shook her head. ”It's not that I don't want you to join us, but you just received a big shock and your mind is in a mess. How could you think rationally that way? I just want to give you one night to sort out your thought about everything. You can tell me about it tomorrow. How is that sound?”

Xiao Fang sighed, knowing that Yao Ling was right. She decided to relent and do what Yao Ling suggested. ”I'm sorry for occupying your bed. I will go back to my room,” Xiao Fang apologized.

”Don't worry about it,” Yao Ling said. She called Han Yi and told the latter to help Xiao Fang back into their own room. She kept nagging for Han Yi to pay attention and take care of Xiao Fang's wellbeing, making Xiao Fang and Han Yi didn't know whether they should laugh or cry. However, they were touched by Yao Ling's concern.

Yao Ling sighed when she saw Xiao Fang's retreating back. Hopefully, she would feel better tomorrow.
