Perfect Secret Love: The Bad New Wife is a Little Sweet

Chapter 2355: I can be her guarantor for her whole life

“Ahem, Director Yin, in truth, Director Si’s words aren’t unreasonable. Back then, the Arbitration Council did indeed act a bit carelessly in laying down an Arbitration Council Kill Order toward Worriless Nie,” Yi Lingjun said.

Yin Yuerong’s tone eased several degrees as she said, “Although the Arbitration Council issued an Absolute Kill Order for her back then, an investigation would’ve occurred first after she was captured. Yet, that woman fled for so long without a word. Doesn’t that completely show a guilty conscience?”

Si Yehan leisurely replied, “You’re overthinking, Director Yin. Worriless Nie left with me and spent those years away with me. Furthermore, I’ve already used my position as director to act as her guarantor.”

When Yin Yuerong saw her son still speaking on that woman’s behalf at a time like this, her face turned colder. “Guarantor? What a good guarantor! You can be her guarantor for now, but what about later? How long can you be her guarantor?”

Si Yehan replied without a trace of hesitation: “Her whole life.”

“…”

Faced with Yin Yuerong’s dumbfounded expression, Si Yehan replied apathetically, “I can be her guarantor for her whole life.”

Yin Yuerong started, “You…”

As Yi Lingjun listened to his words and saw his unwavering gaze from start to end, praise flitted through his own eyes. “Heh, I heard Director Si and Worriless Nie are engaged already. Since you two will become family in the future, there doesn’t seem to be any problems with Director Si’s words.”

Many directors changed their opinions after Yi Lingjun spoke.

“Ahem, since she’s getting married to Director Si, even if she had intentions to revolt, Director Si would conduct counterespionage on her!”

“I think this guarantee is rather trustworthy!”

…

Yi Lingjun cleared his throat, indicating for everyone to quiet down. He then started talking business. “I have a very important matter to inform everyone. In truth, concerning the Arbitration Council’s laws, a large number of objections and resentments have been stacking up from the people for a long time. I think it is time to conduct a complete reform.”

Yi Lingjun possessed immense prestige, and many people expressed their support as soon as he spoke.

“You’re right, President!”

“Your foresight is brilliant, President!”

Yin Yuerong never, never expected Yi Lingjun to actually agree to amend the laws. She instantly shot up and said, “President Yi, how can we change the laws passed down from our ancestors on a whim like this? You previously said that we absolutely couldn’t abolish our ancestors’ laws!”

“Director Yin, please sit. I, of course, am not intending to abolish them; I am amending them. You have to understand that it is more dangerous to stop the people from speaking than to block the flow of a river. The boat can be carried by the water, but water can also overturn it. We should prioritize the people’s opinions—this is more important than upholding the ancestor’s rules.”

“Of course, we can’t change things at the drop of a hat. I’ll have to trouble all of you to carefully discuss it in detail.”

Yi Lingjun then paused and signaled Medusa, who was nearby, before speaking. “Regarding this, Director Si has completed a great amount of work and analysis. I had the files copied and will now distribute them. Please take a look, everyone.”

Soon, Medusa handed out the copied documents to all of the higher-ups.

Yin Yuerong accepted a document and immediately started flipping through it, her expression growing more terrible after every page.

When she saw one of the amendments, her expression changed abruptly. What? They were going to abolish the law of prohibiting residents of the Independent State from marrying people outside of the Independent State?

No!

She absolutely wouldn’t allow this type of proposed bill to pass!
