Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration-Chapter 1190 - 1147 Real World [110] Reborn From the Ashes, Handsomely Returns _2

Ye Shaohua glanced at the message on her phone, then spoke in a low voice, "Let’s talk about it later."

**

Half an hour later, Ye Shaohua parked the car at a place resembling a steel factory.

A few people were also loitering outside the place.

Ye Li immediately noticed a figure with his back to him, dressed in a black silk shirt.

Upon hearing the noise, the figure turned his head and casually extinguished the cigarette in his hand. The sky was already faintly bright, revealing a face that seemed to overshadow the surrounding scenery as he turned.

Ye Shaohua got out of the car, but didn’t rush to enter. She paused outside the door and then looked at Mu Xingzhi, saying in a subdued voice, "Is the person inside?"

Mu Xingzhi glanced at Ye Li, who followed Ye Shaohua, and frowned. He quickly shifted his gaze and said, "Mu Jinhuai has also just arrived. Shall we go in and take a look?"

Ye Shaohua pursed her lips, thought for a moment, then responded, "Alright, then... let’s just watch from outside the door."

Mu Xingzhi led her inside, with the others trailing behind him. Ye Li watched Mu Xingzhi, feeling that he seemed familiar yet unable to recall where he had seen him. Noticing Ye Shaohua entering, he immediately followed.

Mu Xingzhi took Ye Shaohua to the room next to Mu Jinyu’s.

Ye Shaohua found a wall to lean against and toyed with her phone, keeping her eyes downcast.

The two rooms were not soundproof, apparently deliberately designed to carry sound.

Nie Jinhuai pressed his lips together, looking at Nie Jinyu incredulously, "Sister, why did you attack Ye Li? That’s Sister Ye’s brother! How do you expect the people of South Island to face Sister Ye after this?"

"I know, what do you understand," Nie Jinyu looked impatiently at Nie Jinhuai, "Things are a bit chaotic here, you should go back to the island first."

Standing next to Nie Jinyu, Uncle Nie glanced at Nie Jinhuai and said, "Jinhuai, the leader has her own reasoning. Have you started to distrust your own sister, believing an outsider over her?"

"Which outsider? That’s Sister Ye! Grandfather treated her like his granddaughter; he even entered her into the Nie Family’s genealogy!" Nie Jinhuai raised his voice unexpectedly, as he faced the two with an incredulous look.

"Yes, grandfather was so kind to her," Nie Jinyu sneered sarcastically when Nie Jinhuai mentioned that, her eyes cold and fierce, "Grandfather went against everyone’s objections, braved the danger of family law to bring her back to the island, provided for her, personally taught her, and in the end, lost his life because of her. And what about her? She would rather help the Mu Family seize power than allow the people of South Island to step off the island. Did she live up to grandfather’s expectations?!"

Nie Jinhuai looked at Nie Jinyu, disappointment evident in his eyes, "Do you know how many people outside are eyeing South Island? Sister Ye is protecting us!"

"What protection, such nice words, it’s just a grab for power," Nie Jinyu responded contemptuously.

"How... how can you think that? Do you think Sister Ye wants to steal your position?" murmured Nie Jinhuai, as if seeing Nie Jinyu for the first time.

Nie Jinyu became angry at his attitude and spoke softly, "Otherwise, what? Everyone on the island says she’s the foremost among us; she was grandfather’s favorite, the one everyone worships. But I’m grandfather’s granddaughter, I’m the leader! Why does everyone listen to her and revere her? What does that make me, Nie Jinyu? A joke?!"

Her voice was filled with clear resentment, causing Uncle Nie to be momentarily taken aback, "Have you always been jealous of her?"

As the conversation had reached this point, Nie Jinyu no longer concealed her thoughts. After hesitating, she admitted, "Yes... after grandfather died five years ago, I feared she would vie with me for South Island, so... I drove her away."

Nie Jinhuai looked at Nie Jinyu, his eyes turning red.

Uncle Nie nodded, then appeared somewhat surprised, "You did right, but... she actually agreed? Weren’t you afraid she would come back and kill you for that?"

"She swore in front of my grandfather’s ranking to protect South Island for life, even at the cost of her death," Nie Jinyu frowned, "But I didn’t trust her. She was so close to the people of West Island, if she wanted the position of South Island, it would’ve been easy to obtain. That’s why I... I..."

Uncle Nie’s interest was piqued, "What did you do?"

Nie Jinyu’s mouth twitched, and her eyes drooped slightly, her expression unsettled, "During the first New Year after that, I said I was scared and asked her to come back for the feast. I... I poisoned the wine."

Seeing Nie Jinhuai’s face turning murderous with rage, Nie Jinyu hastened to add, "The poison wasn’t lethal! It was only meant to weaken her gradually."
