Chapter 402 - Yi Junjie Gets To Know About Xi Ying's Plans

Yi Junjie was sitting inside the study room silently when he heard the sound of the door being opened.
He wondered if he should get up from his chair as he thought that it must be Xi Ying who had entered just now.
The last meeting between them has not ended on very good terms.
However, he had to get up from his chair when a soft voice fell in his ears.
"Elder Brother"
"Rui…"
A whisper unconsciously escaped his lips when he turned around and saw Li Rui entering the study room. His eyes softened unconsciously seeing the figure of the woman he adored unconditionally.
However, the gentleness lasted only a few moments as he soon noticed Xi Ying stepping inside the study room.
Yi Junjie's eyes went emotionless instantly and he greeted Xi Ying respectfully
"Lord Xi"
"Lord Yi"
Xi Ying said the same way.
"Elder Brother is here at this time…is everything alright?"
Li Rui asked Yi Junjie as soon as the formal greetings finished. A gentle smile graced Yi Junjie's lips and he assured her.
"Yes, everything is alright. I just…"
His eyes went to Xi Ying and he continued
"came to meet Lord Xi."
A small frown marred Li Rui's smooth forehead after Yi Junjie finished. She wondered why Yi Junjie came to talk to Xi Ying.
Yi Junjie was rather straightforward and he said to Xi Ying directly.
"Today, I saw Lord Xi in a restaurant coincidentally. The surprising thing was that even the second prince was with Lord Xi."
Xi Ying's eyebrows raised in surprise after Yi Junjie finished. Even Li Rui was surprised.
However, the reason behind her surprise was a little different. She was more surprised by Yi Junjie's cold tone when he talked to Xi Ying. However, the next moment she thought that it was normal. Yi Junjie talked to everyone else like this only.
So she didn't find anything amiss.
However, this feeling lasted only a few moments as Xi Ying's equally or rather she should say colder voice came.
"Yes, this Lord was really there. So what does Lord Yi wants?"
Xi Ying's lips had a smile but it didn't seem to have any humor. It seemed to be taunting.
He actually didn't like how Yi Junjie seemed to put forward a question for him to answer.
Xi Ying had never liked to explain himself. Of course, Li Rui was an exception. However, except for her, he never had really bothered to explain himself to anyone unless he was really in the mood of doing that.
And Yi Junjie would be perhaps the last person who could force him to explain himself.
He felt more irked by Yi Junjie when the man asked again
"Nothing, this Lord wants nothing from Lord Xi except an explanation for this meeting. This Lord doubts that Lord Xi is planning something against Li and Yi clan again."
Yi Junjie didn't have any good impression of Zhao Zhang Wei. After all, the man had given his sister so much pain.
He remembered very clearly how his sister looked the last time he had seen her. She was just trying to hide all her pain but he could see through her.
And in his eyes, any member from Imperial Clan could mean nothing good for Li and Yi Clan.
Whether it was the Emperor, Zhao Zhuang Chen, The Empress, Princess Wenling or Zhao Zhang Wei.
So the only thought that came inside his mind on seeing Zhao Zhang Wei with Xi Ying was that they were planning something against Yi and Li Clan again.
He was furious at that time ... especially when he remembered how Xi Ying had asked him to take his shadow guards away from Xi Manor who were just protecting Rui.
At that time, he had really done so. Because he couldn't feel that he had any right to do that anymore.
At the same time, he had thought that Xi Ying was very sincere this time. However, now he doubted his sincerity.
'Could it be that all of this was just another trap of the young Prime Minister?' Yi Junjie couldn't help but silently wonder inside his mind.
So he decided to come to Xi Manor and ask Xi Ying directly.
Although he knew that it was not a must that Xi Ying will tell him the truth, he wanted to see what he would say in his defense.
But he had not expected Li Rui to be here too.
But wasn't it good?
She would be able to see the true face of her husband.
The husband who had made her suffer so much but she seemed to have forgotten all that and now was moving on with him.
"Rui, I saw Lord Xi with the Second Prince. It was he who had entered first and then the Second Prince came there a few moments later. What do you think they were doing here? I am sure that it was a planned meeting."
Seeing that Xi Ying was not speaking at all, Yi Junjie put forward this question in front of Li Rui.
Li Rui licked her lips lightly. She couldn't help but look at Xi Ying.
Could she tell him the truth?
It was not that she doubted Yi Junjie. It was just...she knew how dangerous their plans were going to be in the future.
She was not unaware of that.
So she didn't want her Elder Brother to be a part of such dangerous plans.
However, at this moment, she doesn't want him to distrust Xi Ying also.
It was just her heartful wish that Xi Ying and Yi Junjie could coexist with each other despite how cold and indifferent they were towards each other.
Xi Ying walked towards Li Rui. He held her hand firmly and told her gently.
"You can do whatever you want. I am always here to manage even if you do any mistake "
Li Rui couldn't help but sigh in relief when she heard Xi Ying's words. At the same time, she felt a strange warmness inside her heart.
Ignoring the strange feeling, she looked at Yi Junjie and told him.
"Elder Brother, it is not what you are thinking. I was also there with Ying."
And the words left Yi Junjie shocked.
