My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2083: Ultimate Trust

"That’s the cradle of our country’s most cutting-edge technology, containing many of our military secrets. Allowing such an identity-suspicious girl to enter and learn, isn’t there a risk she might leak our secrets?"

Ling Kong was unyielding: "She is just an ordinary girl now, moreover, she has been abandoned by Governor Yun in the enemy’s camp, and the relationship has long been severed. Since we advocate equality, we shouldn’t treat her differently."

Helian Nan’s father, Helian Zheng, sighed and spoke: "Ling Kong, you’re still too young. Those are just slogans and image projects to appease public sentiment. How could we truly treat the children of enemies fairly, and even more so, we can’t allow them the chance to access our core secrets. They should be strictly monitored. What’s more, they claim the relationship is severed, but who knows if it’s true? After all, someone as cunning as Governor Yun could easily support them, yet he chose to abandon them, leaving them in the enemy’s hands, becoming leverage."

He held his mouth in a sinister line, looking at Ling Kong with a half-smirk.

"It might very well be a trap, deliberately leaving them with us, with some unspeakable purpose. You are still young and easily swayed by a woman’s pitiful appearance, softening your heart, not that anyone could blame you."

The words were treacherous, seemingly understanding, but openly and covertly implying that Ling Kong was seduced by beauty into such actions.

Ling Kong could clearly perceive the accusation and labeling.

However, the more this matter is explained, the darker it becomes, impossible to clarify, especially since he does have personal reasons for helping Yiyi.

But as long as Father Halian Jing doesn’t believe it, then nothing big will happen. After all, this father and son couldn’t possibly find any strong evidence to prove he did anything wrong. They might mock him, but can’t do anything about it.

"You are overthinking too much." Ling Kong remained unmoved, still composed and indifferent, "Rather than gossiping about me over matters only busybodies care about, you might as well put more thought into work, which would truly contribute to our family!"

Helian Zheng and his son both showed anger on their faces, glaring at Ling Kong.

"Alright, I believe Ling Kong acted out of our best interests in doing this." Halian Jing concluded, ending the matter there, although Helian Zheng and his son were displeased, they didn’t say more.

Ling Kong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Halian Jing with gratitude.

Despite Helian Zheng and his son constantly trying to sow discord, in the end, his adoptive father is always on his side, which is the only comforting thing for him and keeps him ever grateful and loyal to Halian Jing.

With his father’s trust, no matter what, he will strive to help him achieve his dream throne.

"However, I still hope you no longer have contact with that girl. After all, with your identity and her status, there shouldn’t be excessive interaction, to avoid stirring topics. I believe you understand my concerns, we are in a position where many matters are beyond our control. Alright, there is some important urgent task on the frontline, and I’m uneasy about letting others handle it, I’ll entrust this to you!" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Halian Jing talked about military affairs, as domestic conflicts were still sporadically ongoing without significant progress.
