The Villain's Redemption

Chapter 48 Changing

During this period of time, Lizzy was also cooking up a scheme against Li Yue. However, no matter how hard she thinks, she could not think of any way to injure the hateful woman. Li Yue had been very careful. She had not once moved a meter away from Mo Li; her eyes were also somewhat pretty alert. It was as if she was observing everything around her.

How could Lizzy scheme against a person as alert as that? She gritted her teeth and calmed her raging heart as their guide told them to prepare for they were about to resume trekking. In about an hour, they will arrive at their camping grounds and everyone around them were pretty excited. These teenagers who were born with silver spoons in their mouths treated this as a fun and relaxing trip. However, to Lizzy, this is a trip where she could get close to Mo Li!

Of course.... That is only if she could get rid of Li Yue. After another grueling hour of walking, the group finally arrived at the camping grounds. Surprisingly, the camping spot was actually a small plateau! Who knew that behind the mountain was actually a small plateau like this? Even Li Yue was surprised to see an extremely flat, even surface with few trees. The flat plane in front of them was more than five hundred meters in diameter, giving them enough space to set up their tents and even create a huge bonfire in the center. Of course, this was only the flat space in front of them as there were also trees which surrounded the area.

"As you can see, this plane is surrounded by trees. This is actually a manmade plateau that the city administration made for camping trips like this. Isn’t it amazing? Even the trees were specially planted here... some were transferred here to create this haven!" The administrator started talking about everything that the Yin City did to make this plateau. Of course, Li Yue attentively listened as she didn’t want to miss any information which might turn out to be useful later on. "You guys can set up camp. Then we will have dinner and rest. Tomorrow, there will be a few fun activities for everyone!"

Now that Li Yue looked at the clearing properly, she could see several wooden stairs propped on the trees. These stairs were then connected to wooden bridges. She shook the trivial thoughts out of her head as she found a spot to set up the tent. With Mo Li’s help, the two immediately set up the tent which was enough for three people to occupy. "Are you really going to sleep here?" Li Yue asked, wondering what this man was really thinking. As an idol, Mo Li should have been very careful about his image. However, he seemed to be too relaxed about it. He allowed the rumors about him and Li Yue to circulate in the mouths of the people in the school.

Aside from this, he shamelessly said that he will sleep in her tent. Of course, Li Yue had no problems about this as she was not really planning to sleep all night. She was planning to stay outside and keep watch. This was, after all, a part of her duty of saving this Villain. She continued to stare at him before she frowned.

Something is wrong with this Mo Li. "Hey, are you hiding something from me?" she asked. Now that she thinks about it, Mo Li had been acting all weird throughout the whole trip. He had been to relaxed and was even talkative. Moreover, Mo Li had never once complained and just walked next to her all day. It was as if...

Li Yue narrowed her eyes at him. It was as if he was guarding her from something. "Mo Li..." Li Yue said. They are currently sitting on a log just outside of their tent. "Be honest with me. Is Sun Fengmian trying to kill me in this trip?" Her question rendered Mo Li speechless.

He turned his head towards her. "Why do you ask?" Li Yue’s question was truly a surprise. All this time, he and even Sun Fengmian thought that this woman was but a simpleton. For her to be able to analyze everything was truly a surprise.

"Just tell me the truth." Of course, Mo Li’s response was enough to serve as a confirmation for her. "Is she planning on attacking me?"

"Not sure." Mo Li shrugged, denying everything as he turned his head away. "I have no way of knowing." To him, telling Li Yue would be pulling her towards his chaotic life. At first, he was only using her to observe the people around him. It as bright as day that Sun Fengmian didn’t have any good intentions when she made him to go to school. Because of this, he needed someone to reveal his stepmother’s allies.

Thanks to Li Yue, he discovered that Lizzy and another man were working for Sun Fengmian. These two people would always follow Li Yue and Mo Li together whenever they eat somewhere else. Using Li Yue and the pretense of having a date, Mo Li was able to observe the people following him around. Of course, Mo Li was not planning to use Li Yue forever. After that unexpected meeting showed how much Sun Fengmian favored Li Yue, Mo Li immediately had his suspicions raised.

He knew exactly what kind of woman Sun Fengmian was. He knew that Sun Fengmian would always throw away the people who were no longer useful to her and one day, she would do the same thing to Li Yue. Slowly, crippling guilt crept up to his heart. Mo Li thought that this was all his fault. He was the one who dragged Li Yue into this mess and he was not going to abandon her now that this is how it turned out. Not when Sun Fengmian had discreetly gathered her troops just a few days ago.

Of course, Li Yue simply thought that Mo Li was acting mysterious to make himself look cool. After all, Li Yue was not that experienced in this type of life. Her previous missions were also a failure, showing how simple her mind works in processing her surroundings. However, this does not mean that Li Yue was not changing....
