My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2058: Her Past

But it seems that all along, the government hasn’t sent anyone to investigate her, and now they finally take action.

They even have Ling Kong, such an important figure from the high ranks, come in person for the interrogation. Do they really think they can dig out some secret information about Governor Yun from her?

Although she feels she has no connection with this adoptive father and knows nothing at all, to show a good cooperative attitude, she decides to be completely open, leaving no room for doubt.

"Go ahead and interrogate." She sat down casually across the conference table, only slightly furrowing her brow and instinctively pulling in her right arm.

It hurts like hell. The warrior was brutal just now, but crafty, targeting weaknesses that aren’t easily injured. So though it hurts, after he gave her knee a good kick, it only hurt for a while, then nothing happened. Obviously, he didn’t really intend to hurt her.

But when he twisted her arm with his hand, if it wasn’t injured, it would have been fine soon. Yet, since it was injured, the twist was real torture. She suspects he bruised the injured spot.

She just has to endure it now.

Seeing Yiyi’s attitude, Ling Kong raised an eyebrow, "Well, you’re being very obedient."

"Ha, do I dare not be? I’m really scared. What if I don’t cooperate and then get beaten again? Your intimidation is quite effective, I assure I’ll definitely cooperate fully." Yiyi turned her eyes away, unable to resist the sarcasm.

Ling Kong noticed the mocking curve on her lips, his gaze darkened, and he snorted lightly.

"It’s good that you know. But since you said you’ll fully cooperate, let me declare first, I need you to assure that every word you say is the truth. No lying." His tone was unusually stern, even somewhat pressuring.

Yiyi looked at him doubtfully. Seeing him like this, does he really think he can extract Governor Yun’s secrets from her?

It seems the Councilman Faction’s suspicion of her runs very deep.

"I assure you I will be completely forthcoming, with no false words."

"Alright, let’s seal it with a handshake!"

The calloused hand stretched out in front of her, leaving Yiyi a bit dazed. Sealing it with a handshake, this unfamiliar distrust feeling like between enemies, truly makes one sigh.

Sure enough, everything is already in the past.

With mixed feelings, she placed her hand on his, giving it a light slap.

Then Ling Kong sat down across from her, with only about half a meter separating them, sitting face to face, unavoidable eye contact forced her to stare directly at him, not quite used to this close-quarters interrogation.

She’s not afraid of anything, yet he’s too close, she can see his eyes so clearly, even the distinctness of his eyelashes easily distracts and confuses her.

"Ahem..." She intentionally moved her chair back a bit, casting her gaze to the lower left corner, avoiding excessive eye contact, "Go ahead and ask."

"First, explain your background."

"As everyone knows, I’m the adopted daughter of Governor Yun, but not close because our adoption relationship began a year ago, the entire process started with..." Yiyi was just about to explain in detail how Madam Aisha adopted her, but was interrupted by Ling Kong.

He made a stop gesture, staring at her steadily, faintly parting his lips.

"It started from Yalan Country since you were a child!"

Yiyi frowned, "I believe that past has nothing to do with Governor Yun’s matters. Before I came to Aus Empire, I had never interacted with him. Even if you find out about the past, you won’t uncover any links. It’s just a waste of time."
