My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2006: I Must Face It Myself

To be able to grasp her movements so thoroughly, even before she acts, to guess her intentions.

Who is it?

Watching her all the time, keeping her every move under control.

Thinking that all her actions were unknowingly monitored made her shudder.

She sat on the sofa for a long time, picking up the phone, putting it down, and picking it up again. Her mood was just like her actions at the moment, angry and helpless, feeling like a huge net had descended from the sky to enclose her, unable to escape, unable to breathe!

In the end, she didn’t make the call, because once she confronted the man, her questioning and anger might make things worse, and she couldn’t bring herself to show weakness or surrender.

An hour later, she quietly picked up the phone and dialed.

"Why haven’t you come over yet? It’s about time, the plane is about to take off. Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?" a worried voice came from the other end.

"Wu Bai, sorry, I won’t be leaving!" Yiyi said with a low tone, but her eyes were bright like burning starlight, she clenched the phone tightly, making up her mind.

Wu Bai was shocked and immediately sensed her unusual tone: "Did something happen?"

"No." Yiyi said calmly, pretending to be relaxed, "I’ve been hesitating about whether to leave, but actually, I don’t want to leave here. Because my biggest life goal must be achieved in this city, and all my efforts have been for that significant goal. If I leave, I will never be able to achieve it in my life, and I can’t accept that!"

She didn’t plan to tell Wu Bai about Madam Aisha’s mysterious disappearance. No matter what, she didn’t want to involve him. If he got involved, he would inevitably face that person directly.

And that person holds too much power, is cunning and ruthless. If he came after her for revenge, or to leverage the current political situation to give her trouble, since he decided to forcibly keep her in this city, by all means, not letting her escape.

Then, she had no way to leave.

Once he took action, he targeted her weaknesses and vulnerabilities. If Wu Bai helped, it might provoke him, and more dreadful methods would surely follow.

He is a powerful figure controlling the situation, Wu Bai has no chance against him.

So why involve others?

Besides, the grievances between her and him, ultimately she must face it herself.

"Yiyi, are you crazy? This city is becoming very dangerous, especially with your identity, you’ll become a target for the Councilman Party. If you stay here and fall into their hands, I’m afraid the consequences would be unimaginable." Wu Bai’s deep, disbelieving voice was filled with urgency.

He really couldn’t understand why she suddenly made such an overturning decision.

Yiyi shrugged: "It’s not as serious as you think. After all, it’s a law-abiding society now. They wouldn’t dare to kill recklessly, besides, for public opinion’s sake, they would at most monitor me, treating me as a hostage. But I know nothing about my adoptive father’s affairs, they won’t find any useful clues from me, so they naturally wouldn’t do anything to me."

In truth, it’s not that she wasn’t scared, she was well aware of the dangers, but she had to stay, so she tried to think positively.

If she lost confidence and strength now, that would be the greatest disaster.
