Chapter 57 I Believe in Her

 　　After finishing the phone call, Xi'er collapsed onto the sofa. Seeing her like this, Wei Yi was puzzled and asked, "Xi'er, what happened?"

　　"I..." Xi'er looked at Wei Yi, unsure what to say. "What happened? Xi'er, tell me quickly!" You Yun also asked, looking at her. "I... don't blame me if I tell you!" Xi'er said, looking at You Yun. "Okay, I won't blame you." You Yun nodded.
　　Seeing You Yun nod, Xi'er relaxed, and then slowly said, "Actually, today I sent some people to assassinate Bing Tong and Ying Lin, but..." "What? You actually sent people to assassinate them?" Before Xi'er could finish, You Yun stood up abruptly, looking at Xi'er angrily. "Yun, calm down, let her finish. Xi'er, continue, but what?" Wei Yi comforted You Yun and continued looking at Xi'er. Youyun didn't say anything more, and sat down to look at Xi'er.
　　"But all the men I sent out are dead," Xi'er said unwillingly. "What? How many men did you send?" Wei Yi asked hurriedly. "Fifty...fifty men," Xi'er said tremblingly. "What? All fifty of them are dead?" Wei Yi asked incredulously. "Yes," Xi'er nodded. "Were they injured?" Youyun asked hastily. "No, not at all," Xi'er said, lowering her head. "Oh, that's good." Youyun breathed a sigh of relief, and then everyone looked at him. This was too...
　　"Your men are only reporting back to you now," Wei Yi asked, looking at Xi'er. "Yes! I told them to wait for Bing and the others on their way home, but only now has someone reported back to me," Xi'er said. "Your people are so inefficient! We've been out of school for ages, how could Bing and the others be only just getting home!" Youyun said disdainfully. "What did you say? My people may not be as capable as yours, but they're very efficient." Xi'er stood up and said loudly. "Alright, stop arguing, sit down first." Wei Yi said hurriedly, afraid they would start fighting.
　　"How could they be getting home so late! Could it be..." Yongyu looked at them and said. "Hmm, that's the only explanation right now." Wei Yi said, frowning. "That's troublesome." Yongyu said, also frowning. "Yun, you must break up with Yinglin as soon as possible, she's not safe." Wei Yi said, looking at Youyun. "Isn't it still undecided?" Hearing Wei Yi tell him to break up with Yinglin, Youyun hurriedly stood up and said to him. "It's not a matter of whether it's undecided or not, we haven't confirmed her identity yet, just in case you're in danger." Wei Yi said to him, frowning. "I believe she won't pose a danger to me," Youyun said firmly. "Alright, we won't interfere then. Just be careful." Wei Yi knew he wouldn't listen to anything more, so he could only say this.
　　"I know what to do," Youyun nodded and said. "Alright, it's getting late, let's go rest!" Zi Yu, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly said this. He slowly stood up and pulled Ci Xuan up. "Why do you always say that?" Yong Yu said helplessly to Zi Yu. Zi Yu didn't even look at him and went straight upstairs. "Yi, it's getting late, you two should rest here too!" Youyun said to Wei Yi. "Okay," Wei Yi nodded. "Someone, prepare two rooms for Young Master Yi and Miss Xi'er," Yong Yu called over a servant and instructed.
　　"Then we'll go rest first," Wei Yi said, standing up, and then pulled Xi'er upstairs. Now only Youyun and Yongyu remained downstairs. Yongyu walked over to Youyun and said, "Don't let your emotions get the better of you." After saying this, she went upstairs as well. Youyun's expression was very complicated. "Ying'er, who exactly are you?!" Youyun said, then went upstairs as well.
