Hearing Lee Yeong's words, Jiang Xialan looked up, but she didn't speak. She just looked at him suspiciously, as if saying, 'Don't lie to me.'
Lee Yeong understood instantly. A portal appeared directly in the room, and Lee Yeong pulled her inside.
Jiang Xialan found that after passing through the portal, she had arrived in a beautiful natural landscape with clear mountains and waters, exuding vibrant life everywhere.
"Where is this, Young Master? Am I not dreaming?!"
"Is this your superpower?"
Seeing Jiang Xialan's incredulous expression at this moment, Lee Yeong also breathed a sigh of relief.
"This isn't a dream. If you don't believe me, pinch yourself and you'll know!"
"This is my world. You can understand it as a superpower, and foreseeing death is your superpower!"
Jiang Xialan foolishly pinched herself and believed that Lee Yeong had not lied to her.
"Then why do I only see those terrifying dark shadows, and no one is willing to believe what I say?"
"Young Master, what do you mean this is an ability my father left me?"
Lee Yeong's words also reminded Jiang Xialan of her deceased father and the murderer who killed him, but no one believed her when she was young.
"That's because your father was not an ordinary person. Your ability is inherited from his power. He left his love to you, hoping that you could live happily and joyfully."
Lee Yeong did not directly tell her the truth that her father was a Hell Reaper, wanting her to accept it little by little.
Jiang Xialan had been with her father since she was a child. Her father even gave her a pair of sunglasses and told her to wear them when she was scared. From the look in her father's eyes, she knew how much he loved and doted on her, but her father had left her forever.
"Then do you know who killed my father? I can still remember the tattoo on that person's hand. But no one believes me."
"Leave the enemy who killed your father to me. Don't worry about it anymore. Trust me, okay? Hmm?"
Jiang Xialan could clearly feel Lee Yeong's care and affection for her, just as if her father had returned to her side.
Lee Yeong brushed aside her beautiful hair, which was almost covering her eyes, winked at her, and then looked at her and said again:
"Death is not terrible. You have to try to accept it, to control it. But if you are afraid, I can help you seal it so you no longer see it."
Lee Yeong's words made Jiang Xialan hesitate, unsure of what to do. She was afraid to see death, but she also didn't want the gift her father left her to be simply cast aside.
Lee Yeong wanted her to make her own decision. In his heart, he already regarded Jiang Xialan as his sister, and no matter what she chose, he would protect her safety.
After a while, Jiang Xialan seemed to understand something. She wanted to see this world properly, and she believed that Lee Yeong would continue to protect her as he was doing now.
When Lee Yeong led Jiang Xialan out of the room, Cha Eun Sang and the others had already finished eating, but Jennifer thoughtfully reheated all the dishes. Looking at the still-warm food, Jiang Xialan forced back her tears and ate bite by bite. This was her home, and these were her family.
"Jennifer, later, take Eun Sang and Auntie to the city to buy some clothes. I'll go to the company and then meet up with you."
"Company? What company? Brother, aren't you still in school?"
Jiang Xialan had also regained her vitality at this point, and even her way of addressing Lee Yeong had changed, which surprised everyone, but they were also curious about what Lee Yeong meant by going to the company.
"Seoul Central Building is my property. Eun Sang and I are getting engaged, aren't we? I need to arrange some things!"
Cha Eun Sang and the others stared at him dumbfounded. The Seoul Central Building is yours? No wonder he lived in a multi-billion dollar manor villa at such a young age, and he even kept it a secret from Cha Eun Sang!
Lee Yeong was a little embarrassed by their gazes. He had mainly forgotten and hadn't told Cha Eun Sang all the details.
"Alright, alright, let's go shopping today. Whatever you like, I'll pay for it, okay?"
...
In the afternoon, Lee Yeong took Jiang Xialan to the Central Building. Jiang Xialan's intention was to help Cha Eun Sang keep an eye on Lee Yeong, to prevent any vixen from snatching him away. Oh, no, it was to prevent him from flirting.
He checked the financial accounts and found no issues of corruption as he had imagined. It seemed the system's arrangements were very thorough, and even the managers were loyal.
He then had his assistant send engagement invitations to the groups that had close collaborations with the company, and also arranged for some staff to be responsible for the logistical work on the day of the engagement, before leaving the Central Building.
"Brother, you don't know how arrogant the employees of these companies were when I used to work. They didn't even give a good look, but now they call me 'Miss' one after another. It's so satisfying today!"
Lee Yeong looked at her, finding it somewhat amusing. Just as he was about to tease her, Nam Hong Joo's call came in.
"Hello, I'm at the cafe. What do you want to drink? I'll order coffee and wait for you."
"One latte, one cappuccino. I'll be right there!"
Lee Yeong then took Jiang Xialan and walked towards the cafe. Although Nam Hong Joo was unsure why Lee Yeong ordered two coffees, she didn't think much of it.
When the two arrived at the cafe, Jiang Xialan saw that the person they were meeting was actually a beautiful woman, and she immediately jumped out:
"Oh, you! Brother, we just parted ways with Sister Eun Sang, and you're already here to flirt with someone else! I'm going to call Sister Eun Sang!"
Lee Yeong gave her a disgruntled tap on the head. This mischievous girl was too much! He then sat down opposite Nam Hong Joo and said:
"Sorry, my sister is a bit chuunibyou and likes to joke. Don't take it to heart."
To his surprise, when he turned his head, Jiang Xialan had already walked over with three milk teas and sat down next to them, smiling without speaking.
It seemed she wasn't used to being in front of outsiders yet.
"It's okay, she's very cute and seems very spirited."
"My mother's matter?"
After speaking, she also looked at Jiang Xialan next to her.
"It's okay, her presence doesn't matter. You must have also dreamed about your mother's situation, but you're not clear about what exactly happened, are you?"
Nam Hong Joo quickly asked him what had happened.
"In a few nights, you will have a date with your boyfriend, Li Youfan, but midway, due to worrying about your mother, you will choose to go home. When Li Youfan drives you back, there will be a car accident, hitting and killing someone."
"While you are unconscious, Li Youfan will place you in the driver's seat, shifting all the blame onto you. Your mother will work desperately for the car accident compensation but will have an accident. You will also commit suicide by jumping off a building due to your boyfriend's betrayal and your mother's death!"
Nam Hong Joo was so shocked by Lee Yeong's words that she couldn't speak. It was because of her new boyfriend, Li Youfan, who seemed kind and amiable, but she never expected him to be so vicious.
Jiang Xialan didn't expect her brother to have the ability to foresee the future, and hearing about Nam Hong Joo's impending fate, she felt some sympathy for her.
