Chapter 60 Liu Yiyi's Ambition

Qin Ruxue froze completely.

Her pretty face flushed red and then turned pale, a truly captivating sight.

The scenes from yesterday kept replaying in her mind.

He angrily kicked open the kitchen door.

Liu Yiyi handed over the pinch of dazzling white salt.

He was so preoccupied with "catching someone cheating" that he didn't take that thing seriously at all.

Just now... he even made sarcastic and sarcastic remarks about Liu Yiyi.

Looking at the two plates of poached chicken that were completely different in appearance, and recalling Liu Yiyi's words about "the Lin family's grand plan," Qin Ruxue felt her face burning with embarrassment.

Embarrassing.

So embarrassing.

After realizing the true value of the snowflake salt, her ridiculous jealousy and possessiveness seemed so childish and unreasonable.

After a period of intense inner struggle.

Qin Ruxue took a deep breath and made a move that surprised even Lin Mo.

She suddenly stood up.

Under the astonished gazes of Lin Mo and Liu Yiyi, he solemnly bowed to Liu Yiyi at a ninety-degree angle.

"Third sister, yesterday..."

"It was my second sister who acted impulsively and misunderstood you. I apologize."

His voice still sounded a bit stiff, but everyone could hear the sincerity in it.

Liu Yiyi was startled and quickly got up to help her.

"Second sister, what are you doing? I didn't mean to blame you."

She held onto Qin Ruxue's arm, feeling both amused and touched.

This second sister is really straightforward. She's genuinely proud and arrogant, but she's also quick and decisive in admitting her mistakes.

Qin Ruxue straightened up, her cheeks still flushed, but she had regained her usual dashing demeanor.

She turned her head and glared fiercely at Lin Mo.

Lin Mo instantly understood the message in those eyes.

This was a warning to him, telling him not to mess around with her beloved third sister.

Honestly, am I that kind of person?

Lin Mo was displeased, but he still gave Qin Ruxue an "OK" sign and an incredibly obedient smile.

"I have other things to do. The guards' morning exercise can't be delayed, so I'll go and keep an eye on things first."

Her back view was as dashing and upright as ever, but her pace was three steps faster than usual, carrying a hint of fleeing in panic.

Seeing that Qin Ruxue had practically "escaped" from Tingliu Pavilion, Lin Mo's smile deepened.

This proud little wildcat is so adorable when she's shy.

The atmosphere in the room changed instantly after Qin Ruxue left.

The tension caused by jealousy and rivalry vanished without a trace, replaced by a subtle and ambiguous tranquility.

Liu Yiyi sat back down, her shimmering eyes sweeping over Lin Mo, her allure naturally captivating.

She picked up the teapot and poured Lin Mo a cup of hot tea, her movements elegant and graceful.

"Our little tenth is truly charming."

"Even a proud and aloof beauty like my second sister has become as tender as a feather."

Liu Yiyi's voice carried a hint of teasing.

"Third Sister-in-law, you flatter me."

Lin Mo took the teacup Liu Yiyi handed him and shamelessly said:

"I'm doing this for the long-term future of our Lin family... I'll dedicate myself wholeheartedly!"

The words "dedicating oneself to the utmost" came from Lin Mo's mouth and reached Liu Yiyi's ears.

But no matter how she listened, it didn't sound like nice words.

"Alright, enough joking, let's get down to business."

Liu Yiyi forced a serious expression, trying her best to look earnest.

"I didn't sleep a wink last night; all I could think about was this snowflake salt."

Seeing this, Lin Mo also stopped joking and looked at her with great interest.

He liked that about Liu Yiyi.

She can seamlessly switch between a charming and alluring woman and a shrewd and capable businesswoman.

This contrast is fatally attractive.

"Come with me."

Liu Yiyi stood up and led Lin Mo to her study.

Liu Yiyi's study is completely different from yesterday's.

The clean and tidy scene has vanished completely.

The desk, bookshelves, and even the floor and chairs were piled high with all kinds of account books, files and books.

It was a mess, with almost no place to step.

"Third Sister-in-law, has your study been robbed?"

Lin Mo couldn't help but complain.

Liu Yiyi ignored him.

Instead, he walked to the desk, carefully pulled out a thick roll of parchment from under a pile of messy files, and spread it out on the table with a "whoosh".

"Xiao Shi, look here."

Liu Yiyi pointed to an area on the map circled in red cinnabar.

"The salt in Black Wind City has always been monopolized by the 'Chen Family Salt Shop.' The salt they sell is black and bitter, and it's mixed with sand."

"But this kind of garbage is five times more expensive than regular coarse salt."

"The people in the city either had to grit their teeth and buy it, or they could only eat bland food, which was extremely difficult."

Liu Yiyi paused, then raised her beautiful eyes to look at Lin Mo.

"Your destruction of the Overlord Gang only affected a small part of the slums; it's nothing to worry about."

"But if we want to sell snowflake salt, we're going to be taking a huge chunk of Blackwind City's meat."

She moved her finger and tapped an area marked in dark black.

"Behind Chen's Salt Shop is the Black Tiger Gang, one of the four major gangs in Black Wind City."

Liu Yiyi began her detailed introduction:

"Blackwind City is nominally part of the Great Xia Empire, but in reality, it is a lawless land."

"The prefectural government office is a mere formality; the four major gangs are the ones who truly control this city."

"The 'Azure Dragon Society' in the East City controls the slave trade and the black mines outside the city, and its style of doing things is the most ruthless."

"The 'White Wolf Stronghold' in the western city controls the trade routes and sells stolen goods for the barbarians, thereby gaining great power and protection."

"The 'Red Phoenix Hall' in the south of the city controls the city's dens of iniquity, gambling dens, brothels, and most importantly... intelligence."

"And the 'Black Tiger Gang' in the North City controls the two most profitable things in Blackwind City—salt and iron."

Liu Yiyi's fingertips landed heavily on the three words "Black Tiger Gang".

"The Overlord Gang we wiped out was just a small dog, while the Black Tiger Gang is a real tiger."

"Touching Snowflake Salt is like ripping off a piece of flesh from the Black Tiger Gang. It's not just slapping them in the face, it's digging up their ancestral graves and touching their very lifeblood."

"So if we want to sell snowflake salt, we have to be prepared for the worst."

"It's possible that there will be no trace of their remains."

Done.

Liu Yiyi raised her head, her clear, autumn-water-like eyes fixed on Lin Mo.

"So, are you afraid?"

Liu Yiyi laid bare all the risks and difficulties before Lin Mo.

It is both honesty and expectation.

She hoped that the man before her was the courageous and decisive person she had imagined.

She hopes this man is the one who dares to play this crazy game with her.

Lin Mo looked at the light shining in Liu Yiyi's eyes.

In that radiance, there was tension, anticipation, and even more so, the madness of a desperate gamble.

Salt, iron...
