After hearing Lanling's words, Nini'an was instantly furious. She had never suffered such humiliation before.
Her beautiful eyes turned cold as she stared at Lanling and said, "You should know that between you and Du Yan, we can only choose one. Since you've given up the opportunity, we can only choose Du Yan."
Lanling's expression became serious as he said, "Fine, I agree."
Nini'an was momentarily stunned.
Then, she fell into a dilemma.
Even if Lanling agreed, what difference would it make? It was merely verbal; what use would it have?
"How will you prove it?" Nini'an asked.
Lanling replied, "I'll help you remove your brother, and guarantee it'll happen without anyone knowing."
Instantly, Nini'an was startled and shook her head, saying, "You know that's impossible. My father still has decades ahead of him. What I need now is to cultivate forces loyal to me."
Lanling chuckled and said, "And what do you use to prove someone's loyalty to you?"
