Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1383: Chapter 1383: Why Can’t We Assassinate?

He believes there is nothing between her and Qi Ruisen.

But he worries that they might be forced to live in the same room. Even if nothing happens, he still can’t accept them living together.

Fortunately, she’s still living alone.

Jian Yufei returned to her bedroom, leaned against the headboard, and turned the camera towards herself.

”Are you busy right now?” she asked.

”Not busy at all, I’m free to chat with you all night.”

For some reason, every time she talked to him, she couldn’t help but smile, always in a good mood.

Jian Yufei said with a smile, ”I wanted to talk to you about something today.”

”What is it?”

Jian Yufei told him everything that Qi Ruisen had said.

”That’s the real situation. What we need to do now is to get rid of Qi Ruigang, then Nangong Xu!”

After listening, Ruan Tianling’s eyes darkened as he pondered.

Jian Yufei continued, ”Can we just assassinate Qi Ruigang directly?”

The moment she uttered the word ’assassinate,’ her heart skipped a beat.

When did she start to casually speak of killing as if it were nothing?

Was that really her, the one who spoke so easily of assassination just now?

Jian Yufei toned down her smile and added, ”Of course, killing is not good. We could take over his business and destroy his reputation. Then we’ll support Qi Ruisen and make him the best successor. Hmm, that’s also a good approach!”

Ruan Tianling hooked up the corner of his lips and chuckled, ”What you’re saying is right. But assassination won’t work.”

”Why not?”

”If assassination were viable, Nangong Wenxiang would have done it a long time ago!”

Jian Yufei nodded in agreement, ”That’s true. But why is assassination not possible?”

”I can guess probably two reasons. First, he must control the Qi Family’s economic lifeline; no one but him knows the financial data. If he dies, the Qi Family would collapse. Second, maybe the Qi Family has rules just like the Nangong Family, such as a dictate against fratricide. I’ve heard that originally, there were three brothers in the Qi Family, but now only Qi Ruisen and Qi Ruigang are left. The third brother died ten years ago.”

”Died? Was it Qi Ruisen’s second brother?”

”Yes, and it was an accidental death. But usually, these types of incidents are murders.”

Jian Yufei said gravely, ”Qi Ruigang did it!”

Ruan Tianling’s brow furrowed slightly, his tone slightly displeased, ”Are you so sure? It might have been Qi Ruisen.”

”Qi Ruisen isn’t like that.”

”Hmph, how would you understand what kind of person he is!” Ruan Tianling’s tone grew even more displeased. Did she trust Qi Ruisen that much?

Jian Yufei tried to defend her point, ”He doesn’t seem like that kind of person.”

”He doesn’t seem like that kind of person, yet he thinks about unseating his older brother to take that position?”

Jian Yufei was speechless. That’s true, too.

But her instincts told her that Qi Ruisen was not a bad person.

He must have his reasons for wanting that position.

But she couldn’t defend him any further; otherwise, Ruan Tianling would definitely turn against her.

”Let’s drop this topic for now. As for why Qi Ruigang can’t be assassinated, I’ll find out more about it tomorrow.”

”Yufei.”

”Hmm?”

Ruan Tianling said earnestly, ”Don’t get involved in these matters. I’ll find a way to handle it. If you get too involved, I’m afraid they’ll start targeting you.”

Jian Yufei felt warmth in her heart; she hadn’t opposed him.

”I know my limits, and I won’t take risks. If anything comes up, I’ll talk to you first. But you also have to promise me not to act on impulse and take unnecessary risks.”
