Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 832: Chapter 501: Worry

Noda Hikari’s eyes dart around as she studies Luo Ye: ”Do you mean you’re an important talent in your country?”

”Not exactly, but given my status, I wouldn’t be a nanny for anyone,” Luo Ye looked at her indifferently, ”don’t pick at my words, I’m not demeaning nannies, just stating that each profession has its expertise. You understand Chinese culture, so you should know what I mean.”

”But now you are indeed my nanny, doing the work of a nanny, and...,” Noda Hikari’s lips curled up, ”if there’s a problem with the investment, it would be a serious matter, wouldn’t it?”

”You’re... threatening me?” Luo Ye’s eyes curved into a charming crescent, ”Noda Hikari, your decision also relates to your future, please consider it carefully.”

”Ha ha ha...” Noda Hikari couldn’t help but laugh, ”Are you trying to scare me? May I ask, what qualifications do you have to scare me?”

”Regarding that, I can’t answer,” Luo Ye smiled playfully, ”I understand your purpose, and I somewhat grasp why you’re doing this.

A sincere advice for you: don’t lose your own little cake for an empty promise of a bigger one, it’s not worth it.”

Noda Hikari’s heart skipped a beat, her eyes flashing: ”What do you mean?”

”Whatever you think it means,” Luo Ye glanced at the time, ”Miss Noda Hikari, you should be resting.”

”I know.” Noda Hikari responded unhappily, lying back in bed, her mind filled with worries, unable to fall asleep, she tossed and turned for a long time, then suddenly sat up, ”Luo Ye, you said you could guess why I’m doing this, can you tell me?”

”No.” Luo Ye shook his head, ”My duty prevents me from speaking recklessly about uncertain matters, Miss Noda if you’re willing to share, I don’t mind listening.”

”Do you think I’ll fall for your trick?” Noda Hikari rolled her eyes disdainfully, ”Forget it, I’m sleeping, keep a close eye for me, if anything happens to me, you won’t be off the hook.”

”Ssss...”

In the middle of the night, a chilling sound suddenly echoed in the room, Luo Ye listened closely for a second, quickly took out a powder from her small bag and sprinkled it in a circle in the center of the room.

Within two minutes, there was movement from beneath the bed, near the door, and in the cracks of the cabinet...little thumb-thick snakes slithered towards the center of the room.

Luo Ye observed carefully and noticed when the snakes reached Noda Hikari’s bedside, their movement was nearly identical—they trembled a bit and quickly turned away.

Scaring her like this? Noda Hikari really came up with it, Luo Ye ”hmphed” through her nose, took out another small bottle and sprinkled it in the center of the room, soon, the gathered snakes lay motionless.

She certainly doesn’t like these creatures, but it doesn’t mean she’s afraid, in her past life, she often dealt with them to build courage, although she never grew fond of them.

The sleepless Noda Hikari stared at the scene before her, not knowing what to do, she had spent a lot of effort to think of this method.

Considering her own safety, she naturally couldn’t let venomous snakes in, so these were non-venomous snakes with their fangs removed, meant to scare Luo Ye.

If Luo Ye dared to escape first, then the blame for inadequate protection would rest on her, partially fulfilling Noda’s goal.

The Yodani Family and Lian Fengnan’s deal was to find a way to make Luo Ye’s career slump, and mentally devastate him, even if not as severely as Qiao Xiaowan, he certainly shouldn’t have it easy.

Lian Fengnan’s original intention was for her to drug Luo Ye, turning him into someone like Qiao Xiaowan, after much deliberation, Noda Hikari refused.

The Yedai Group needed support, but she didn’t want to do anything overly immoral, after all, she had no deep grudges against Luo Ye, if things went too far, she wouldn’t be at peace for the rest of her life.

Of course, she dared not tell Yoda Song about this, given her father’s loyalty to the Yodani Family, he would definitely adopt Lian Fengnan’s approach.

But she really didn’t want to be burdened by an ethical crucifix.

Watching Luo Ye work methodically, Noda Hikari suddenly felt that everything she had done was quite childish.

Luo Ye cleared her throat, casually inviting, ”If you’re awake, come over, have a look at the little snakes sleeping collectively, it’s quite a sight.”
