Gu Yanping's guess was spot on. After hearing her words, Ye Fei's suspicions indeed vanished. This wasn't because Ye Fei was blinded by lust, but because he trusted Lin Ling and her mother.
Through his previous conversation with Xiao Han Yue, he had already let his guard down.
Humans naturally tend to extend their feelings of affection or aversion to related parties, and Ye Fei was no exception. He reasoned that if Gu Yanping harbored any hostility towards him or those close to him, she would inevitably show it towards Lin Ling and her mother as well.
Both the astute Xiao Han Yue and the perceptive Lin Ling would have sensed whether Gu Yanping's intentions were genuine after spending time with them.
The current situation was that Lin Ling and Gu Yanping got along exceptionally well, and Xiao Han Yue's doubts were merely a formality. Coupled with Gu Yanping's straightforwardness and lack of concealment, Ye Fei chose to trust her.
