At the same time, elsewhere, the Arbitration Council’s summit was progressing intensely.
The Arbitration Council’s summit every year would last half a month, and if there were various affairs that required attention, it might get extended.
They were currently handling the trickier and more complicated affairs at the Arbitration Council summit this year.
Yin Yuerong swept her eyes over all attendees before her gaze landed on Si Yehan. She icily said, “I believe everyone is aware of the incident relating to the Rose of Death.”
“An evil cult like the Rose of Death has always been a focal target of our Arbitration Council. And the newest leader of the Rose of Death, Worriless Nie, has always been the number one person on the Arbitration Council’s list.”
“Worriless Nie has remained in hiding for so many years and escaped the Arbitration Council’s capture. Now that she’s appeared, she continues to deny her relation to the Rose of Death, but there isn’t any evidence that can prove that. Are you saying we’re going to spare such a large malignant tumor simply because of her empty words?”
When the higher-ups and directors heard Yin Yuerong’s righteously indignant speech, they conversed amongst themselves and all nodded in agreement.
“That’s right! Every leader of the Rose of Death has antagonized the Arbitration Council and blatantly ignore our laws. They’ve always been the biggest, malignant tumors to the Arbitration Council!”
“We must eliminate a weed at its roots or else the wildfire will blaze endlessly and surge again with the spring breeze! I absolutely agree with Director Yin on this point!”
“That’s right, that’s right…”
…
At this moment, a cool and low voice interrupted everyone’s discussion.
Si Yehan glanced at Yin Yuerong aloofly. “Director Yin, allow me to remind you that you also don’t have any evidence to prove she’s related to the Rose of Death.”
Director Yin snorted immediately. “Don’t have evidence? Back then, the Arbitration Council already discovered she possessed the Rose of Death’s symbol token. For anyone who possesses that ring, it’s the same as inheriting the Rose of Death.”
Si Yehan said, “However, the reality is that the Rose of Death has vanished without a trace the past few years and has shown no signs of re-emerging.”
Director Yin retorted promptly, “Who knows if it’s because she’s biding her time and preserving and nurturing her power to make us lower our guards?”
“Before convicting someone of a crime, please show your evidence, Director Yin. Don’t provide baseless conjectures from start to end. I believe the Arbitration Council isn’t a place that rashly convicts people.”
…
At the summit, the mother and son duo had their swords drawn and neither were willing to yield a step, filling the room with smoke. Everyone looked at each other blankly and didn’t dare to interject.
Yi Lingjun remained silently and calmly watched the duo clashing.
Until… his phone suddenly vibrated several times in a row.
Yi Lingjun took it out and discovered he got messages from Ye Wanwan.
[Dad, remember to help your son-in-law out during the meeting!]
[Yin Yuerong is too scary and too strong! I’m seriously worried about Ah-Jiu fending her off by himself! Only you can suppress her, Dad, so I’m relying on you!]
[Dad, Si Yehan is your real son-in-law! Muah!]
…
Yi Lingjun’s lips twitched, and his face glowered. “…”
When a girl was of age, she really had to be married off!
While the mother and son duo continued to go head to head with each other, Yi Lingjun was madly bombarded by Ye Wanwan.
In the end, Yi Lingjun broke under Ye Wanwan’s continual calls of “Dad” and could only clear his throat and interrupt the duo. “Alright alright, Director Yin, Director Si, stop arguing and please hear me out.”
Yin Yuerong and Si Yehan finally stopped after Yi Lingjun spoke, but the low pressure in the conference room persisted.
