The serious business was over.
Akemi couldn't wait to appear by Shiho's side and confirm if it was really her.
However, Lin Yi said, "Before that… I have to give you a warning. Don't ever mention me to her."
Akemi was stunned and very puzzled: "Why not?"
"Because… well, I can give you a glimpse of my background first."
Lin Yi picked up his glass and swirled it, saying, "In recent times… you should have noticed it, right? My identity."
"… … … …"
After hesitating for a moment, Akemi slowly nodded: "I've become somewhat aware."
Akemi couldn't help but be aware. They hadn't robbed a single penny from the bank.
But he still let her stay in a suite. The expenses here weren't cheap, costing at least five or six hundred thousand per night. She had been staying here for more than a week.
Moreover, Kana often took her shopping, playing, and eating. She had completely lost the concept of money!
In the past, she had to split one hundred yen into several uses!
Now, she didn't even blink an eye when spending money.
She couldn't pretend not to know there was a problem.
"As for me… I'm not short of money."
Lin Yi felt that saying he was rich, handsome, and tall was too cliché, so it was better to let her use her imagination.
"It's just that during that time… I had some conflicts with my family, and they cut off my financial resources. That's why I was short of money… Moreover, I also wanted to try some exciting things."
"So that's how it is…"
Akemi roughly understood what Lin Yi was trying to express. He didn't lack money; he lacked excitement.
This answer wasn't unexpected for Akemi; it was within her expectations.
As for her not being able to find out his true identity… that was normal. Rich people had enough ways to hide their identities.
"When I rescued your sister, I used some personal connections."
Lin Yi emphasized the words "personal connections," stressing that the relationship was extraordinary.
"And I don't want others to know my true identity… I'm very satisfied with my current life, peaceful and without so much infighting."
Lin Yi said with a "sense of emotion."
This made Akemi feel that Lin Yi was even more unfathomable.
Using personal connections to rescue her sister from the organization?
Akemi couldn't imagine how strong those personal connections were…
"Until now… she believes that she was able to leave the organization through her own efforts."
Lin Yi had set the stage for so long just to say this.
Once Ai and Akemi meet, they will inevitably talk about topics like "How did you survive?" and "How did you escape?"
If they talk about this, they will definitely reveal the truth.
Therefore, Lin Yi decisively disguised himself as someone who was not only rich but also powerful.
Not only a rich second generation but also a black second generation, combining both to evolve into the ultimate second generation!
"I see… so that's how it is."
Akemi believed Lin Yi's nonsense.
Because she didn't even know where her sister lived or worked; she was completely ignorant.
However, Lin Yi was able to rescue her sister from the organization.
This was definitely not something ordinary people could do.
Moreover, the false death plan that Lin Yi proposed was definitely not something ordinary people could come up with.
She couldn't believe that Lin Yi didn't have any connection to the underworld.
"I've seen your sister's information. She's an overly cautious person. Therefore, I hope that after you meet her, don't mention me… lest she disturb my normal life."
Lin Yi finally came to the point.
"I know what to do." Akemi nodded.
"That's good."
The insurance had been taken care of, so Lin Yi was naturally relieved. He raised his glass again.
Akemi consciously picked up her glass and gulped down the liquor.
Akemi wasn't used to drinking much alcohol in the first place, usually only drinking red wine or white wine.
Now, drinking two glasses of strong liquor in a row made her feel hot all over and enter a tipsy state.
Lin Yi, seeing that she was about ready, said, "So, Akemi... about that promise you made to me before, does it still count?"
"Promise... what prom...?"
Akemi didn't remember at first, but then she recalled—she had made a hasty promise to Lin Yi, saying that if he could rescue her sister from the organization, her life would belong to him.
Now that he had done it, she couldn't possibly go back on her word: "Yeah... it counts."
"Good then..."
Lin Yi smiled and finished the bourbon in his glass in one gulp, then picked up the glass and smashed it hard against the wall.
"Bang ~ ~ ~ ~"
The glass shattered into pieces with a crisp sound, which startled Akemi.
"Wh... what's wrong?" Akemi looked at Lin Yi nervously, wondering why he suddenly smashed the glass.
Akemi didn't understand, but Kanae did.
Smash the glass as a signal!
It's time to act!
Kanae immediately put down her glass, grabbed Akemi's shoulders from behind, and pinned her down on the sofa.
"Ah... Kanae... what... what are you doing?"
Akemi was shocked and didn't understand why Kanae suddenly pinned her down.
"I'm sorry... Akemi-nee."
Kanae looked apologetic, then used her knee to hold down Akemi's shoulders and snatched the glass from her hand.
"Sorry? Sorry for what?"
Akemi was completely bewildered and didn't know what Kanae was talking about.
Then, Kanae used her own actions to tell Akemi why she was saying sorry.
Kanae began to unbutton her shirt.
"You... you... what are you doing... stop it!"
Akemi exclaimed in shock and struggled.
"Stop struggling."
Lin Yi stood up, came in front of her, and looked down at her: "Didn't you say you'd let me do whatever I want?"
Akemi realized what was happening and hurriedly said, "No... that's not what I meant. I meant that my life is yours, but that doesn't mean..."
"Since your life is mine, then I can do whatever I want."
Lin Yi raised Kanae's chin, tapped it, and said, "Right?"
"Yeah." Kanae was now completely Lin Yi's accomplice and would agree with whatever he said.
Lin Yi leaned down, touched Akemi's cheek, and said, "So... tonight... will be a long one."
"Wuu wuu..."
