The Devil Who Devoured Snow White Chapter 199
Advertisement
A servant came into Yong Liwei's room to clean up the mess on the floor. He collected all the shattered pieces of the plate and glass and after he left, Yong Liwei took his laptop from the drawer beside the bed. He went to the sofa to check on something. He has always been a meticulous person so even in his room, he had installed hidden cameras with mics in them. If Si Guanlin thought that he would be able to fool him with his little play, then he was underestimating him.
On his laptop, Yong Liwei saw the truth of what happened earlier. He even heard the conversation the couple had. He had never trusted Si Guanlin, especially with the kind of personality he had. He was right to doubt him from the start.
He tore his gaze away from his laptop's screen to look at Lu Mengjie. "Amnesia-induced drug…" he muttered to himself. He had already seen Xue Lihua inject the medicine so he could not do anything about it to reverse it. Maybe it was for the better. He could already tell that Han Yizhou was developing feelings for her. He had to stop it. Loving her will only become his other self's downfall especially when Si Guanlin knew about their condition.
Yong Liwei may not know what kind of scheme the other man has in mind but one thing was for sure. He could no longer trust him. Si Guanlin was trying to use him on something. If Yong Liwei was not careful enough, he would end up being played by a man like Si Guanlin. He was a dangerous man, that's for sure. He could trigger the darkness in a person and manipulate them. He saw how he tried to poison Xue Lihua's mind. He used her weakness to pull him to his side.

It was never part of Yong Liwei's plan to kidnap Lu Mengjie. He was not the person who ordered his men to capture her. It was Si Guanlin. It was a good thing that Han Yizhou was not in control of the body when someone reported it to him. He quickly used his abilities to block that memory from his other self. Even now, he was blocking everything out from Han Yizhou since he knew that his other self was protective of Lu Mengjie.
That day, when he learned that Si Guanlin kidnapped Lu Mengjie, he headed to the place where he was keeping her. He didn't lie when he told her that there was a tracking device in her dress. He was able to find her location at once but before he could even see the man behind her kidnapping, he received reports that Lu Mengjie escaped so he used the chance to follow her.
It was never part of his plan to bring her back to his place but… he brought her back and took advantage of the situation to see what Si Guanlin was up to. Yong Liwei didn't hesitate in using Lu Mengjie as bait to uncover the other man's true colors. He was not blind. He could see that Si Guanlin's target was Lu Mengjie. But what was his real intention? For now, he would have to let Si Guanlin think that he had the upper hand. To outwit a deceiver, he had to let him know that he was successfully manipulating him.
"Si Guanlin," Yong Liwei whispered the name with scorn. "Fine, I'll play your game."
And along with it, it seemed like he had to use Lu Mengjie as his pawn. She was going to be the trap that would bring Si Guanlin to his ruin.

He shut the laptop and stood up. He strode towards his bed and stared at the unconscious woman. She looked like she was just sleeping. He remembered the night they spent at the cave, the night when he tried protecting her from the cold. He sighed heavily and massaged the bridge of his nose. Just what was he trying to do? He was not trying to protect her or anything…
He had to take her out of this place. The longer she stayed here, the more exposed she would be to Si Guanlin. Who knew what other schemes he had in mind?
Just then a knock was heard, bringing him out of his thoughts. It was already late at night, who could it be?
"Come in."
A young man in his twenties, wearing a black suit entered the room. He had spiky black hair and had a long scar on his cheek. He was one of the men that arrived with Yong Liwei earlier. Scorpion.
"Sir, Xiao Gao has poisoned himself."
He furrowed his brows upon hearing the report. "What?"
"We don't know where he got the poison but… we weren't able to save him."
Yong Liwei clenched his jaw and balled his fists in anger as he glared at the man before him. The temperature in the room instantly dropped. He didn't have to rack his brain to find the person behind Xiao Gao's death. He already knew who it was. Si Guanlin. To kill one of his men was unforgivable. The only person who has the right to take his men's life was himself.
"Scorpion, I want you to keep an eye on Si Guanlin," he ordered. The only men he trusted were few. Scorpion was one of them.
"Yes sir."
"You can now leave."
After Scorpion left the room, Yong Liwei took his phone and dialed someone's number. He knew that he was still awake at this hour of the night so he never hesitated on calling him. He pressed it against his ear once the call went through. "Bai Jingye, give me your grandfather's schedule for this week."
Yong Liwei knew that the Bai and Lu families were not on good terms. He would have to hand over Lu Mengjie to another enemy if she was to wake up with no memories of her past. He knew that Bai Keran was working under Si Guanlin so by using Lu Mengjie, he was going to kill two birds with one stone.
