Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“There’s no hurry.” Ye Wanwan shook her head. “I have something to ask you.”
“Please speak, President Bai,” the elderly man said.
“My parents… the madam and patriarch of the Nie family… they were captured by the Direct Line, right?” Ye Wanwan asked him.
“Yes.” The elderly man from the Direct Line nodded frankly.

Ye Wanwan: “…”
Ye Wanwan didn’t expect this old man from the Direct Line to be this honest… he was too honest… She didn’t freaking know how to respond…
“I know President Bai has some misunderstandings toward our Direct Line, and the main cause of this misunderstanding is Nie Linglong.” The elderly man smiled at Ye Wanwan. “In truth, the Direct Line has too many members, and a member like Nie Linglong is merely considered an offshoot and not worth a mention. Our Direct Line can’t demand every member to obey the rules. Someone always acts recklessly and disobey the rules; there’s nothing we can do.”
The corners of Ye Wanwan’s lips twitched. What kind of freaking twisted logic was this?! The Direct Line’s members were disobeying the rules and acting recklessly outside, but it was unrelated to their Direct Line?
Couldn’t he have some shame?!
“In truth, Nie Linglong is extremely ambitious. To be quite honest, the Direct Line doesn’t like overly ambitious people like her, so we’ve already kicked her out of the Direct Line. As for President Bai’s parents, they were captured by Nie Linglong,” the elderly man continued.
Ye Wanwan: “…”
For some reason, Ye Wanwan suddenly started respecting the Direct Line for being able to say something like this without skipping a beat and tossing away all responsibility so cleanly. They truly had thick hides.
After all, Nie Linglong was dead, so they could say whatever they wanted.

“President Bai, if you’re willing to join the Direct Line and persuade your parents to support the Direct Line, we can immediately release them,” the elderly man added.
“Heh… let’s not waste our breaths… Tell me, just who was the mysterious person Nie Linglong reported to? He and Nie Linglong killed my brother, so I will make them pay with their lives!” A cold glint flashed across Ye Wanwan’s eyes.
The elderly man’s eyes glimmered. “President Bai, there isn’t any mysterious person.”
“Nonsense!”
Third Elder shouted coldly. “How could there be no one? When I tracked Nie Linglong that night, she made contact with a mysterious person, and they discussed eliminating Nameless Nie first!”
The elderly man’s fingers started tapping on the table. “You’re free to consider my suggestion, President Bai.”
After saying that, the elderly man stood up and left without waiting for Ye Wanwan’s response.
Ye Wanwan’s expression darkened.
She was certain that the mysterious person definitely existed…
Furthermore, that mysterious person held an important position in the Direct Line!
The treatment of Nameless Nie alone meant that Ye Wanwan couldn’t have any other relationships with the Direct Line! They could only be enemies!
“Sis Feng!”
Not long after the Direct Line left, Big Dipper dashed inside the conference room again. “D*mn… Si clan, the ancient Si clan sent us an invitation!”
“The ancient Si clan?”
Ye Wanwan was startled.
Big Dipper immediately handed her the invitation.
After reading the invitation, Ye Wanwan was dumbstruck. The Direct Line and the Collateral Branch were truly family and had the same temperament.
The Direct Line just sent people to win her over then the ancient Si clan also sent her an invitation.
