Cooperation

Lin Mi clenched her fists tightly, her voice squeezing through gritted teeth with resentment. "The family's industry suffered a heavy blow. They sought help from your grandfather and granduncle, and even requested an early dividend, but were refused. So, they thought of the family's traditional practice and thought of me. They brought me back, intending to change my surname to Li. They planned to sacrifice me to protect the family from disaster. However, my mom took my place. I survived; she died."

Concluding her words, Lin Mi looked at Li Jin across from her, a smile returning to her face. "So, why do you think I would want to cooperate with you? You don't want them to snatch your things, and I don't want them to become powerful because I want them dead! If they become powerful, it'll be troublesome for me."

Listening to Lin Mi's candid words, Li Jin began to trust her sincerity to some extent.
