Chapter 156: the first time she could not say it

Situ Lingying was stunned by Di Junlin's sudden "request." He was stunned for a long while before he recovered from the "request" that Di Junlin had used.

Ever since he was young, Di Junlin had never said the word "request" to him because their friendship was good. There was no need to say the word at all. This would show that their friendship was estranged and the distance between them would be widened.

Situ Lingying put away his shock and asked, "What is it?"

"If Cass Yueying really came to Country A, I want Keqin to stay with you for a few days. After what happened today, I think that not only Keqin is being targeted, even the surroundings of the villa under my name are being monitored by the enemy. Letting her continue to stay here is undoubtedly the most dangerous time.

"She's simple-minded. You let Xinya come to your villa and say that she misses Keqin. You let her stay here for a few days and she won't have any doubts. In addition, I might be very busy these few days. Not only do I have to deal with official matters... I also have to settle the matter with Cass Yueying as soon as possible. I don't want Keqin to be hurt because of this matter.

"And I will definitely not allow this matter to appear again today. I will settle everything within these few days. I will definitely not let today's matter repeat itself."

When Di Junlin said the last sentence, his voice was so deep that it made people shudder.

"So... Are you planning to dig out all the informants in these few days? Do you know that the sooner you dig them out, the more the people behind you will think that Keqin is the woman you care about? This will only put her in more danger," Situ Lingying said...

"Then I can only let Keqin stay on Ye Sha's island."

Di Junlin took a deep breath. When he said that, he felt that it was so heavy. Ye Sha's base was on an island. If Lan Keqin was brought to the island to be protected, then she would lose a lot of freedom.

Situ Lingying wanted to ask more questions but his subordinate who came to report interrupted the conversation between him and Di Junlin.

"Young Master Di! Young Master Di! The results of the interrogation are out."

A servant handed over the information from the assessment to Situ Lingying and Di Junlin. They were both smart people and knew how to do some things without having to say it. So Situ Lingying and Di Junlin each held a piece of information in their hands.

After Di Junlin finished reading, Situ Lingying had almost finished reading. These two people were like monsters. Who looked at the information as if they were flipping through a book?

"Go down and deal with those people."

Situ Lingying put away the information in his hand and placed it on the table. "I didn't expect Cass Yueying to have such an expert by her side. No wonder that person escaped without a trace under the pursuit of Er Lin and Er Qi."

"Bloody Rose!"

Di Junlin said coldly. It had to be said that he was surprised when he found out that Bloody Rose had attacked today. Bloody Rose was considered a top existence in the world of assassins. Moreover, no one had ever seen her true face—just like them. Outsiders had never known that Ye Sha's leaders were him, Situ Lingying, and the other three.

"Who do you think is most likely to be Bloody Rose beside Cass Yueying?"

Situ Lingying looked at the information on the table. He did not doubt the authenticity of the information at all and asked directly because the words of every captive on the table could prove that Cass Yueying was the one who wanted to kill Lan Keqin.

"No matter who it is, whoever dares to touch my woman, I will make her suffer a fate worse than death."

Di Junlin pursed his thin lips and said coldly. It was said that people with thin lips were heartless but the care and love he had for Lan Keqin could only be described as a "peerlessly good man."

Di Junlin chatted with Situ Lingying for a while and said a few more things before he went to look for Lan Keqin and the rest.

...

"Keqin! We've talked so much. I still don't know how you and Young Master Di met. Tell me, how did you two meet?"

Situ Xinya and Lan Keqin were walking in the garden of the villa. She had always been curious about how Lan Keqin and Di Junlin met, so she finally could not help but ask.

"I..."

Lan Keqin opened her mouth and said the word "I." She stood rooted to the ground. It was an indescribable pain for her and Di Junlin to know each other. It was also something that she could not say.

In fact, she was very open-minded. Even if her relationship with Di Junlin was not good at the beginning, she did not have any complaints. Because of various fates, she met Di Junlin. She was glad that she met him and fell in love with him.

However, she really did not know how to say such a thing to others.

"Keqin?"

Situ Xinya saw that Lan Keqin suddenly stood rooted to the ground. She could not help but turn around and look at her suspiciously. She asked again, "What's wrong?"

"Xinya! I'm sorry. I don't want to say it."

Lan Keqin looked at Situ Xinya apologetically. She could tell this to Gu Xiaoqin or Yi Xuan. She really could not tell anyone else.

She was willing to tell Gu Xiaoqin because there were no secrets between her and Gu Xiaoqin. She would tell Yi Xuan that she was completely tricked out by him. In fact, the main reason was that she felt that Yi Xuan was close to her—which was why she was so defenseless at that time. She said it without any hesitation.

Regarding Situ Xinya, she liked her very much after the interaction just now. However, she still felt that she was not as close as Gu Xiaoqin and Yi Xuan, and Bai Lan and Situ Lingying. It was not good enough for her to talk about everything.

Furthermore... She did not want too many people to know about her first meeting with Di Junlin.

If outsiders knew that Di Junlin had raped her, she did not know if this matter would bring him trouble. Even though she was Situ Lingying's sister, she still did not want to say it.

"It doesn't matter. If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Let's go over there."

Situ Xinya smiled. As a top assassin, she had seen Lan Keqin's hesitation. Perhaps Lan Keqin was too innocent since even Situ Xinya could not guess what she was thinking. She thought Lan Keqin was just too naive to say anything.

That's right. Lan Keqin's family had met Di Junlin, who was the richest man in the world. There must be a reason that she could not say. She had been born into a wealthy family since she was young and had seen many strange things.

Just as Lan Keqin was about to nod and say "okay," Di Junlin's voice came from behind.

"Keqin! Come here. We should go back."

Di Junlin's voice was very gentle as if he could never be fierce to Lan Keqin. It was unbelievable.

"Oh! Okay," Lan Keqin replied loudly.

She jogged all the way to Di Junlin's side, then turned back to look at Situ Xinya and made a goodbye gesture to her. "Xinya, it was nice meeting you."

"It was nice meeting you too!"

Situ Xinya also said "nice meeting you" politely but her seductive red lips curled into an unpredictable curve.
