Xia Meilin was surprised by what he said. Did he catch Feng Ning?
"We need him so you can't do that, honey." She calmly said.
"We need him?" He repeated, the iciness in his voice could be felt even to her side.
Despite the change in Lu Yifeng's voice, Xia Meilin was undisturbed by it. She trusted him and she knew that he won't do anything to Feng Ning because if he did, he wouldn't have called her in the first place. "Yes. He's willing to be our eyes against her."
"How sure are you that he's telling the truth?"
"It's because I know that he won't betray the Xia family. Yifeng, it's okay that you don't trust him because you'll certainly come up with some plan against him if he really betrays us. I won't force you to trust him but as for me... He's my childhood friend, so I will trust him."
Lu Yifeng became quiet for a while and because of this Xia Meilin became worried. "I love you." She said to reassure him that she doesn't have any romantic feelings for Feng Ning anymore.
