Chapter 8: Lets give her a hand (1/2)

Zhu Fengyin's room.

”You don't know what that means then how do you know Su Liya would betray you?”

”Maybe because I am Zhu Fengyin from many years in the future. After getting killed by someone I took as a sister, I was reborn. Judging from how you are referring to Su Liya and since you are also aware of her betrayal you must be from the future so I will ask once more ``Who are you?”

Su Liya stood there, silently contemplating if she should give Zhu Fengyin an honest answer or not. She has already let it slip that she had transmigrated but since Zhu Fengyn wasn't familiar with that, Zhu Fengyin assumed that she was from the future.

She could just claim that she was from the future without giving herself off as a transmigrator but it didn't seem fair to Zhu Fengyin.

If she was going to successfully in her mission to Zhu Fengyin get a happy ending, she needed to earn Zhu Fengyin's trust. That was the only way she would get Zhu Fengyin to follow her instructions no questions asked. With that thought in mind, Su Liya looked Zhu Fengyin afraid in the eye.

Su Liya introduced herself to Zhu Fengyin and explained everything to her but left out the bit about the Heavenly Empress. At the end of her introduction, Zhu Fengyin remained silent.

Zhu Fengyin's continued silence got her worried, she had taken a huge risk laying down all her cards on the table. As Su Liya was about speaking up and gauge the situation, Zhu Fengyin replied

”If you are from many years in the future how come you are here”

Su Liya ran her tongue through her lips and replied ”I don't know maybe the gods decided to give me a second chance at life”.

”That God must have made a mistake if you got reborn as someone like Su Liya”

Su Liya chuckled ”mm that must be it. Well since we at stuck in this time… let's make the best of it. What do you say Yin'er, do you want to take control of our future”

She looked up at Zhu Fengyin, a wide smile on her face. She caught Zhu Fengyin's eyes and winked at her. Su Liya looked cute, Zhu Fengyin burst into laughter. Since she had nothing much to lose Zhu Fengyin nodded.

”Then let's drink to it… say do you want to have a drink with me?”

Zhu Fengyin didn't answer her instead she called in a maid and ordered two jars of alcohol. The maid ran out and came back with the alcohol minutes later. Zhu Fengyin dismissed the rests of her maid. The two of them drank till they passed out.

A week later, Zhu Fengyin's room.

It was 9 am, Su Liya escorted Zhu Fengyin to her stepmother's courtyard to pay her respects. The Doctor had given her a clean bill of health three days ago so she resumed her duties fully.
