Fine, he was her creditor anyway!
…
After Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli returned to Yi residence, Yi Jinli asked, "Are you disappointed today? We went to S City but didn't find anything useful."
Ling Yiran shook her head. "No."
"You're not disappointed?" He seemed somewhat surprised.
"Because you're willing to help me find clues and clear my name. I'm happy regardless if we find something useful or not," she said.
It was as if he really trusted her, and the original estrangement between them was slowly disappearing.
He stared at her. He understood her desire to reverse the case, only... He could clear her name, but he could not tell her the truth.
Even though it was a truth she wanted to know.
"As long as you're happy." He smiled slightly and sidestepped the topic by saying, "What are you going to do the next few days if you're not going to work?"
"I'm going to visit Grandma in a couple of days," she said. She was so busy with her work that she did not have time to call her grandmother to check on her. Since it was rare for her to have these days off, it was natural for her to visit her grandmother.
"All right, when are you going? I'll go with you," said Yi Jinli.
"You? You want to visit my grandmother too?" She was taken aback.
"She's your grandmother. Of course, I'm going to visit her," said Yi Jinli.
