Xia Meilin was surprised by what he said. Did he catch Feng Ning?

　　"We need him so you can't do that, honey." She calmly said.

　　"We need him?" He repeated, the iciness in his voice could be felt even to her side.

　　Despite the change in Lu Yifeng's voice, Xia Meilin was undisturbed by it. She trusted him and she knew that he won't do anything to Feng Ning because if he did, he wouldn't have called her in the first place. "Yes. He's willing to be our eyes against her."

　　"How sure are you that he's telling the truth?"

　　"It's because I know that he won't betray the Xia family. Yifeng, it's okay that you don't trust him because you'll certainly come up with some plan against him if he really betrays us. I won't force you to trust him but as for me... He's my childhood friend, so I will trust him."

　　Lu Yifeng became quiet for a while and because of this Xia Meilin became worried. "I love you." She said to rea.s.sure him that she doesn't have any romantic feelings for Feng Ning anymore.

　　She heard a sigh from the other line. "Mm... I love you too."

　　Xia Meilin's eyes softened as a loving smile appeared on her lips. "If you can't trust others then you can trust me... I will never betray you, Yifeng."

　　Ren s.h.i.+yuan turned to Xia Meilin and saw the gentleness on her face.

　　She will never betray him? Was she really that deeply in love with Lu Yifeng?

　　Whenever it comes to Feng Ning, Lu Yifeng couldn't help but feel insecure about it since he knows how much Xia Meilin loves the other man, she was even willing to take her own life for him in their past life. He was afraid that one day, Xia Meilin will have a change of heart because of Feng Ning. That's why when he heard her words of rea.s.surance, all his doubts and insecurities was slowly fading away.
