Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Qin Keqin, this woman, is really cold-blooded!
Translator: 549690339
Yin Qin, startled by the favor he received, went to the place his father had summoned him.
It was Yin Ying’s villa.
Yin Qin waited at the door for a while.
He wasn’t entirely sure why his father was at his aunt’s house.
His aunt had already pressured their family to this point, and his father could still interact with his aunt like this. Was his father blind?!
With these thoughts in mind.
He saw his father and Lin Ximeng coming out of his aunt’s villa together.
Holy shit.
What’s happening now?
How could Lin Ximeng cling so tightly to his father?!
Had his father been seduced by the fox spirit after all?!
Yin Qin looked somewhat gloomy, and quickly stepped down from the driver’s seat.
Yin Bin was heading straight over with Lin Ximeng.
Yin Qin stared at Lin Ximeng, his eyes were not friendly, making Lin Ximeng somewhat uneasy.
“Yin Qin, you’re here?” Lin Ximeng spoke gently, the corner of her mouth still carrying a smile.
Yin Qin shifted his gaze from Lin Ximeng, speaking to his father somewhat irritably, “Have you lost your mind? Now you’re with Lin Ximeng, aren’t you giving up on the hope of reuniting with Miss Qin from now on?!”
“You don’t need to worry about my affairs.” Yin Bin’s face darkened.
“After all, it’s your own business. As long as you old man’s happy, that’s all that matters.”
Yin Bin didn’t comment, and just got straight into the car.
Lin Ximeng also planned to sit in Yin Qin’s car.
Yin Qin stopped her immediately.
Lin Ximeng seemed a bit awkward.
She smiled nonchalantly again, “Yin Qin, after this, we’re family. Now that I’m with your father, I’m your mother. I will treat you like my own son…”
“Enough of that. Don’t take advantage of me! Miss Lin, even if you’re with my father, we have nothing to do with each other. The only one who can get into my car is my mom, Qin Keqin.”
Lin Ximeng’s face turned really ugly.
She bit her lip secretly.
Someday, when she completely controlled Yin Bin, she would make Yin Qin regret his current attitude towards her.
She smiled, “Auntie knows you can’t accept this all at once, I won’t pressure you. Yin Bin, I’ll go home first, I’ll wait for you at home.”
Yin Bin nodded slightly.
Lin Ximeng turned and walked away.
Yin Qin watched as Lin Ximeng walked away, carrying herself like the lady of the house. It gave him a bad feeling.
Had his dad gone mad?
Ignoring his mom, he was still going to be with Lin Ximeng!
He got back to the driver’s seat preparing to take his father out for a drink, and at the same time get some clarity about the situation. He wasn’t stupid, he could tell something was off!
Just as he was about to get into the car.
“Yin Qin.” A man’s voice called out to him.
Yin Qin turned his head to see Li Wenjun also walking out of his aunt’s villa!
He looked terrible.
Li Wenjun approached him in a few strides and stood before Yin Qin.
“What, now that the phoenix has climbed onto the branch, it’s ready to soar into the sky?” Yin Qin scoffed sarcastically.
Li Wenjun did not get angry.
Instead, he smiled and said, “Yin Qin, I stopped you just to remind you not to interfere with Ji Baixing’s business. You should just live your own life!”
“None of your fucking business!”
“I’m just trying to warn you kindly. Now when you look at the situation in your house…” Li Wenjun seemed disdainful, “Weren’t you threatening me fiercely before, saying you’d ruin me? Now look, aren’t I doing just fine?!”
Yin Qin sneered.
So the guy was here to gloat.
“Your father is much smarter, knowing how to take things as they come! What are you still struggling with? If you obediently apologize to your aunt, you’ll still be able to enjoy the life you had before, otherwise…” Li Wenjun laughed sinisterly, “Otherwise, you’ll feel everything I’ve experienced! Looked down upon, belittled, trampled upon…”
“Li Wenjun, don’t be too happy too early, fortunes change!” Yin Qin’s voice was cold, “And besides, Yin Ying is my aunt after all, my blood-related aunt. If I really decided to please her, would she still want to abandon you?”
Li Wenjun’s face immediately turned ugly.
Yin Qin sneered, “In the end, you’re just a pretty boy, or to put it bluntly, you’re just a bed warmer. Who do you think my aunt would choose if she had to pick between you and me?”
Li Wenjun was left speechless in that moment.
Yin Qin turned around, leaving with an ominous sentence, “You’d better figure out how to protect yourself in the future!”
He got back into the driver’s seat and drove off.
Damn!
Although he had managed to fight back, he still felt incredibly annoyed!
That bastard Li Wenjun, he’ll get what’s coming to him one day!
He irritably drove the car.
Yin Bin, accustomed to sitting in the back seat, didn’t seem to be in a good mood, staying silent.
Yin Qin was driving his father to a nightclub.
It was still early, the sky in Jin City wasn’t dark yet and the nightclub wasn’t crowded.
They booked a VIP room, just the two of them.
Father and son.
Each held a bottle of alcohol.
Yin Bin, his expression gloomy, kept drinking without saying a word.
Finally, Yin Qin couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, what’s going on with you? You suddenly said you wanted me to drink with you! If you want to drink, just drink, why are you looking so stiff?! What happened to you?”
Yin Bin shot a look at his son.
He said, “Nothing.”
“You don’t look like ‘nothing’ to me?!” Yin Qin bluntly replied.
“Just drink your alcohol!”
“Are you really trying to act high and mighty while drinking?” Yin Qin grumbled, feeling aggrieved. In that moment he moved over, casually throwing his arm around his father’s shoulder, acting like they were pals, “This is how it should be when drinking, like brothers! There should be no father and son at the drinking table!”
Yin Bin furrowed his brows, giving in for the rare time.
Yin Qin asked, “So, old man Yin, did my mom upset you?”
He said it like an insider.
“No.”
“Didn’t my mom say she was going to divorce you today? Should I celebrate your return to bachelorhood?”
“We didn’t divorce.”
“I knew you’d never easily divorce.” Yin Qin knew his father’s style well.
Yin Bin gave his son a withering look.
“Should I go back and try to persuade mom?” Yin Qin asked.
“Do you think it would be any use?” Yin Bin took a drink, alone, he had already drunk a lot by himself.
“I guess not.” Yin Qin nodded.
It seemed there was no wiggle room when his mom dealt with matters between her and his father.
“Or maybe, you can try a more aggressive approach!” Yin Qin suddenly suggested, “Don’t women need to be conquered? Show your masculine charm…”
“No use!” Yin Bin cut his son’s words short.
Yin Qin was taken aback.
What do you mean ‘no use’?!
He suddenly shivered, “Have you tried?!”
Yin Bin drank but didn’t answer.
But silence was an admission.
That… that was too explosive.
Where did his father find such courage?
“What was the result?” Yin Qin asked.
“You’ve seen the result, haven’t you?” Yin Bin countered, his face not looking good.
It turned out that Miss Qin wasn’t the type of woman who could be easily conquered.
Yin Qin couldn’t help but study Yin Bin, looking at him with scrutiny.
Feeling uncomfortable under his son’s gaze, Yin Bin snapped, “What are you trying to say!”
“Are you… unable?” Yin Qin asked, unable to hold back his question.
Yin Bin almost spat the alcohol in his mouth.
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Yin Bin yelled.
Probably the most intolerable three words for any man at any stage were “you can’t.”
Yin Qin pursed his lips, “Then why is my mother so resistant?”
“How would I know! Is your mother’s physiology different from ordinary people?” Yin Bin blurted out, filled with resentment.
What was wrong with him?
Qin Keqin talked about divorce right after their intimate relationship!
He almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard it!
Although he was slightly drunk that night, he remembered the entire evening very clearly. Qin Keqin didn’t seem as cold as he portrayed!
But.
But the next day when he happily appeared in front of her, she actually mentioned divorce!
She actually mentioned divorce!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
Yin Bin kept drinking non-stop.
Yin Qin just watched his father, seeing his sudden frenzied behavior.
At that moment, he didn’t say anything else, but just drank along with him.
After all, when it came to the matter between his mom and dad, he certainly wasn’t going to be of much help!
Night fell deeper.
Both Yin Bin and Yin Qin had drunk quite a bit.
The two leaned on the sofa, swaying back and forth.
Yin Qin couldn’t drink anymore, and he slurred, “Old man Yin, I never thought you could hold your liquor so well?… You drank so much, I’m drunk…”
Yin Bin was also drunk at this moment.
The scene before his eyes was swaying.
But in his life, he was accustomed to bravado, accustomed to hiding his miserable side.
So at that moment, he stood up, trying to keep his balance as much as he could.
He said, “Let’s go.”
Yin Qin had real trouble getting up.
He followed his father, the two of them sat in the car, the night driver drove them home.
Both remained silent in the car.
Whoever spoke might vomit, so to save face, they both just controlled the feeling of their stomachs churning.
The car arrived at the Yin Family’s villa.
As Yin Bin and Yin Qin got out of the car, both were staggering in an S pattern, but neither said anything. They just gritted their teeth and stumbled into the villa hall.
The hall was already dim and silent.
At this moment, it was quite late, and everyone had gone to bed.
Yin Bin and Yin Qin groggily went upstairs. Yin Qin saw his father heading straight for his mother’s room.
Yin Qin rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things.
At that moment, he wanted to remind his old man Yin, to not humiliate himself?!
Forget it.
Old man Yin had managed to get himself drunk. How could he not cause a ruckus under his drunken madness!
With that thought, Yin Qin went to his own room.
After a few steps, he suddenly thought.
If his dad could enter his mom’s room, why couldn’t he go into Luo Xiaolang’s room.
After all, they were about to get married.
Wasn’t sleeping in the same bed the most natural thing?!
With that thought, his body was already heading into Luo Xiaolang’s room.
Next door, in the adjacent room.
Yin Bin directly opened the door to Qin Keqin’s bedroom.
Qin Keqin hadn’t locked the door because she hadn’t fallen asleep yet, intending to go check on her grandson later. But at this moment, she saw Yin Bin, reeking of alcohol, appear in her room.
Her face darkened.
Yin Bin didn’t say anything, nor did he utter a word to Qin Keqin. His whole body simply fell onto Qin Keqin’s bed without taking off his clothes or shoes. He even rolled around a couple of times!
Qin Keqin watched him with restrained patience.
She had just changed the sheets, just changed the sheets?!
She turned around and walked straight out of the room, without saying a word.
Yin Bin opened his eyes and saw the back of Qin Keqin as she left.
He knew this woman, no matter what state he was in, even if he was about to die, she would remain indifferent!
At that moment, however, he didn’t leave.
So what if Qin Keqin despised him?!
He was determined to nauseate her by staying on her bed!
With that in mind, his body continued to roll around on her bed.
By the time Qin Keqin returned to the room, Yin Bin had rolled himself to sleep.
At this moment, he was even snoring loudly.
Her face looked extremely unpleasant.
Following her was Lin Ximeng.
Upon leaving the room, Qin Keqin had called Lin Ximeng and waited for her in the hall, partly not wanting to be in the same room or even under the same roof as Yin Bin.
Lin Ximeng’s face changed as she looked at Yin Bin lying on Qin Keqin’s bed.
After a long silence, she stepped forward to help Yin Bin up.
Yin Bin felt someone coming, and without even thinking, he assumed it was Qin Keqin.
So, with his eyes closed…
“Hmm.” Lin Ximeng was taken aback.
They never had such an intimate gesture since she came home.
She just kept widening her eyes, staring at the close-up face of Yin Bin.
Her heart was beating very fast.
Qin Keqin just watched with an indifferent expression.
Actually, it wasn’t that she couldn’t bear to look, but this was her room and her bed. She was afraid she would feel sick!
She then spoke, coldly, “Can we do this somewhere else?”
The voice… it sounded somewhat familiar.
The familiarity reached Yin Bin’s ears.
He somehow felt that the voice didn’t come from the person beneath him, but from…
In that second, he opened his eyes wide and clearly saw the woman right in front of him.
His body sprang up from the bed all of a sudden.
Even his drunkenness seemed to have worn off; he just stared straight at Lin Ximeng!
His face… it looked really bad.
What had he done to Lin Ximeng just now?!
He thought it was Qin Keqin.
He assumed the only person who would appear in this room was Qin Keqin.
Upon realizing this, …
His body suddenly stiffened, turning around to face Qin Keqin who was standing at a moderate distance behind him. She looked back at him, her expression unchanged.
“Qin Keqin,” Yin Bin called out to her.
“Hmm,” Qin Keqin responded, “Have you sobered up now?”
Yin Bin nodded.
His explanation hovered on the brink of his lips, but it stayed there and wouldn’t come out.
“Once you’re sober, leave,” Qin Keqin said, as cool and indifferent as always, seeming not to react at all to his previous behavior.
Yin Bin’s face darkened.
Lin Ximeng got down from the bed and quickly went to support Yin Bin, urging, “Let’s go.”
Yin Bin didn’t move, completely frozen, his gaze fixed solely on Qin Keqin.
Qin Keqin wasn’t afraid of him, maintaining her cool demeanor and returning his stare.
Right.
He was completely sober in that moment.
Everything became so clear all at once.
All of a sudden it dawned on him; why would Lin Ximeng be here?
He spoke up, his voice cold, “You just want me to leave, right? To leave with another woman?!”
“Hmm.” Qin Keqin nodded. “You’re disrupting my rest. Plus, this is my room!”
Yin Bin glared at her fiercely.
Qin Keqin also seemed to be growing impatient, “The next time you’re drunk, make sure you don’t enter the wrong place again. I just changed my bedclothes, and now I have to change them again…”
“Damn it, Qin Keqin!” Yin Bin suddenly grabbed her and pinned her against the wall.
Qin Keqin struggled.
She couldn’t get free from Yin Bin’s brute force.
Qin Keqin glared at him fiercely, “What are you doing?!”
Yin Bin didn’t answer.
Lin Ximeng just watched them!
Talking about… Qin Keqin had demanded for shares to agree to a divorce, but it was obviously Yin Bin who didn’t want to part, Yin Bin who was unwilling to divorce!
It seemed like she never saw him behave in such a way before?!
Even back when they were dating, she had never seen Yin Bin like this.
Her eyes were very red.
So red it was horrifying!
Why… why was Qin Keqin so special? What makes her so exceptional that Yin Bin would treat her like this?
“Bang!” A loud noise suddenly echoed throughout the room.
Lin Ximeng stared wide-eyed at the scene unfolding in front of her.
She saw Qin Keqin, who seemed to have managed to grab the bedside lamp, and then directly hit Yin Bin over the head with it.
Yin Bin suddenly froze.
In that moment, he felt waves of darkness passing over his eyes while his head throbbed in pain.
He tried hard to suppress it, to keep himself upright. He couldn’t fall, he just couldn’t!
He stared at Qin Keqin like a fierce beast, seeing her face flushed with anger.
Gradually.
A warm liquid flowed down from his head.
The blood ran down Yin Bin’s cheek, a terrifying sight.
Yet, Qin Keqin remained silent.
At that moment, she stated calmly, “Let go of me.”
Yin Bin didn’t let go.
But neither did he hold her tightly.
Because, at this moment, he had no strength left.
He was on the verge of fainting, he had no energy left to hold onto Qin Keqin.
Lin Ximeng, on the other hand, finally reacted and rushed forward to support Yin Bin. “Yin Bin, are you okay? You’ve lost so much blood, you’ve lost so much blood!”
Yin Bin, numb to the pain, didn’t respond, his body felt as light as a feather.
“I’ll take you to the hospital, I’ll take you to the hospital!” Lin Ximeng was almost in tears.
Yet, Yin Bin’s gaze never left Qin Keqin; he watched her indifference.
“Do you want to see me dead?” Yin Bin asked her suddenly.
Qin Keqin cleared her throat slightly, “Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me, so there is no thought involved.”
To Qin Keqin, Yin Bin was just an insignificant individual.
His life or death had no bearing on her.
He nodded.
The moment he nodded, he felt even more faint.
Suddenly.
Whether it was an attack of conscience or truly due to his injuries, within the next moment, he passed out.
If it weren’t for Lin Ximeng being quick to react, he might have fallen to the ground, dead!
After all, Qin Keqin certainly wouldn’t have lent a hand to break his fall.
As he lost consciousness, he clearly saw Qin Keqin’s immense indifference.
By the time he opened his eyes again.
Yin Bin was already in the hospital, the doctor had finished treating him and he saw Lin Ximeng’s eyes swollen from crying. Seeing that he had awakened, she became very excited. “Yin Bin, how do you feel now? The doctor said if you didn’t wake up, they would do a brain CT. Do you still feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
She was very worried and caring.
It had been many years since Yin Bin had last felt this warmth.
He was fighting for whom?
He reached out his hand and actively held Lin Ximeng’s hand.
Lin Ximeng was startled for a moment, then tightly held Yin Bin’s hand in hers.
Seeing this scene, Qin Keqin watched with complete apathy.
She turned around and left directly.
She didn’t want to come in the first place, but Lin Ximeng made such a fuss-falling apart like the sky was falling- left her no choice but to help bring Yin Bin to the hospital with Lin Ximeng. Originally, she wanted to call her son to send him, but considering Yin Bin’s current state and her son wasn’t in any better shape, she ended up driving to the hospital herself and staying throughout the process.
The doctor said that Yin Bin only had superficial injuries on his head, but they didn’t know why he was unconscious. If he didn’t wake up before the night was over, he might be in big trouble and a brain CT would be necessary to determine if he had any internal injuries!
Fortunately, he woke up.
She may not have been as indifferent as she appeared. After all, if anything was to happen to Yin Bin, she would be legally responsible!
Without uttering a word, she left directly.
Yin Bin just watched Qin Keqin’s retreating figure.
This woman, this woman, was so cold-blooded!
The next day.
Yin Qin awoke from sleep.
He moved his body and suddenly felt an unfamiliar object.
The unknown object somehow felt quite pleasant.
As he continued to touch the object, he slowly opened his eyes.
Upon opening his eyes, he saw Luo Xiaolang lying next to him, his hand was stroking her arm.
Yin Qin immediately jumped up, “Luo Xiaolang, why are you in my bed!”
Luo Xiaolang looked at the flustered Yin Qin.
His hair was in a mess at the moment, making him look somewhat ridiculous.
“This is my bed.” Luo Xiaolang explained.
Yin Qin looked around.
It really didn’t seem to be his bed.
“How did I end up on your bed?”
“You climbed up yourself.”
“How is that possible?” Yin Qin didn’t believe it one bit!
Luo Xiaolang didn’t feel like explaining any more.
Anyway, Yin Qin’s thinking was different from most people.
Luo Xiaolang got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Yin Qin watched Luo Xiaolang’s retreating figure.
Luo Xiaolang was never someone who cared much about her appearance. Her hair was a mess when she got up in the morning, her pyjamas were disarrayed. But watching her from behind stirred something in him…
Had he been celibate for too long, now even a sow could climb up a tree in his eyes?!
Thinking about this, he got out of bed and walked towards the bathroom that Luo Xiaolang had left open. He watched as Luo Xiaolang finished brushing her teeth and was now washing her face.
How on earth was it that the more he saw of Luo Xiaolang, the more he liked?!
Luo Xiaolang seemed unfazed by Yin Qin’s scrutiny. After washing her face, she washed her hands again, then straight up lifted her clothes…
Oh, god!
Yin Qin’s eyes nearly popped out of his skull.
He quickly turned and left.
He knew that Luo Xiaolang was just preparing her body to feed the baby.
However, he suddenly felt a strange excitement.
He took a deep breath, gathered his emotions, and left Luo Xiaolang’s room.
Qin Keqin happened to come out of her room and saw her son coming out of Luo Xiaolang’s room. She found it strange, “Why are you coming out from here?”
“Can’t I sleep with Luo Xiaolang?”
It appeared there was nothing wrong with it.
But.
Qin Keqin’s expression hardened, “If you’ve had a C-section, you can’t have sex for three months…”
“I know!” He did understand that basic fact.
And the doctor had taken him aside for an entire hour to talk about precautions upon discharge, especially this one. He had repeated it so many times, Yin Qin would have a hard time forgetting.
Did he really look that sexually frustrated?!
Besides, even if he were sexually frustrated, he wouldn’t…
But then, the image of Luo Xiaolang from before suddenly popped into his head.
Okay.
When he wasn’t thinking before.
“By the way, where’s my dad?!” Yin Qin suddenly remembered.
Last night both of them got drunk and came back together.
He seemed to remember his dad going into his mum’s room.
Maybe he could take advantage of being drunk to…
“He’s probably at the hospital.”
“What?!” Yin Qin stared at his mum, “You sent my dad to the hospital?!”
Did she actually have him admitted?!
“It’s just a minor injury.” Qin Keqin casually retorted.
“Minor injury?” Yin Qin looked at her in disbelief, “You know how old my dad is. Can’t you be a bit more gentle with him? Even a minor injury at this age can be a big deal… Ah!”
Yin Qin covered his head.
Was his mother really going to be so rough?
“Don’t overthink!” Qin Keqin was cold, “You should spend more time with Xiaolang and your son, and stay out of what’s not your business!”
Yin Qin pouted.
Qin Keqin said no more and left.
She was thinking, with the events of last night, the divorce should be easy now!
Centre.
Song Zhizhi was still being held here against her will.
Although evidence could almost confirm her innocence in court, she couldn’t be granted bail pending trial because some evidence was still under review.
But that shouldn’t take too long.
She waited just like this.
The iron door suddenly opened.
Song Zhizhi turned her head. A prison guard coldly said, “Someone’s here to see you.”
Who would want to see her at this time?!
She did not expect anything and followed the prison guard to the interrogation room.
Inside the interrogation room sat a man.
Song Zhizhi looked at him.
The man looked back at her in turn.
He moved a finger slightly.
Respectfully, the prison guard in the interrogation room left.
With that, he pointed his finger at the two surveillance cameras mounted on the wall.
Surely, Song Zhizhi understood that he was signalling to have that device turned off.
Song Zhizhi’s heart tightened.
Surely he wouldn’t resort to murder to silence someone in such a place.
She stared hard at the man before her, Jun Minghan.
Only after he had finished everything did Jun Minghan shift his gaze back onto Song Zhizhi.
Song Zhizhi looked at him, “Mr. Jun, I am truly honored that you came to see me personally. I wonder what significant matter has brought Mr. Jun here?”
A smile twitched at the corner of Jun Minghan’s mouth.
He had not expected that Song Zhizhi, a woman under these circumstances, could still be so sarcastic towards him.
Did she really not fear that he could kill her in a fit of rage?
He said, “I have something to discuss with you.”
Discuss?
Jun Minghan, a man of such high rank, had business to discuss with her?!
Jun Minghan, no doubt, saw the disbelief in Song Zhizhi’s eyes.
He stated bluntly, “Your case can basically confirm your innocence now. Ji Baijian is more formidable than I thought.”
Song Zhizhi remained expressionless.
She did not believe that Jun Minghan would kindly come all this way just to bring her this good news.
Jun Minghan continued, “So, how about we discuss cooperation?”
Song Zhizhi frowned.
This statement coming from Jun Minghan seemed unbelievable.
“I rarely hold discussions with people, and hardly ever initiate cooperation with anyone else. You’re the first,” he said.
“Should I feel greatly honored?”
“I know you may find it hard to believe that I would abruptly seek you out. Do you believe our positions are not aligned?!” Jun Minghan asked her.
“Perhaps Mr. Jun can be clear with his intentions all at once. I fear I’m too slow to comprehend Mr. Jun’s deeper meanings,” she responded.
“You’re being too modest. You surely know what I want to say. Perhaps you even understand what I want now. Nonetheless, since I’ve made the first move, I could always make it clear.” Jun Minghan spoke, frankly stating, “Are you seeking revenge on Qian Guanshu and Ye Wenhan?
Song Zhizhi hadn’t expected Jun Minghan to be so blunt.
Jun Minghan calmly stated, “Even though the evidence at hand can comprehensively prove your innocence, it can’t necessarily implicate Qian Guanshu. Qian Guanshu would undoubtedly find a scapegoat, something you must have guessed. I am telling you all these only to assure you that I can have him and Ye Wenhan destroyed, their names tarnished and finally incarcerated!”
“What are your conditions?”
After all, pies don’t fall from the sky.
Moreover, as Jun Minghan had just made clear, he wanted to negotiate cooperation.
“Given the current situation and your intelligence, you should know that Jun Mingyu and I are incompatible as fire and water. We’re destined to wage a war sooner or later. Who will emerge victorious depends on who has the greatest capabilities! Evidently, Ji Baijian’s existence threatens me.”
So it was because of Ji Baijian.
“I have two propositions. You can choose the one you like,” Jun Minghan proposed straightforwardly, not one to dawdle, “Firstly, you could help me win over Ji Baijian so he becomes my confidant. I promise he will be valued greatly, placed second only to me and superior to all others! I am aware that Ji Baijian has always wanted the Commercial Management position. I can give that to him. I can also promise that if I become the Dean, our official family will not interfere in the operations of the Commercial Management. Just like before, the two agencies will operate independently, jointly supporting the development of Yanshang Country!”
Song Zhizhi listened.
She listened in silence.
Did Jun Minghan want Ji Baijian to betray Jun Mingyu and follow him?!
Clearly, that was impossible.
Once Ji Baijian made a promise, he would never change his mind easily.
“Secondly.” Jun Minghan, having presumably considered these factors, calmly suggested, “You stay with me, while Ji Baijian remains with Jun Mingyu. You will then help remove Ji Baijian’s threat to me. What I can offer you is, I assure you that your father, Song Shan, will become the leader of the Commercial Management. At the same time, I guarantee the wedding of your brother, Song Zhidao and my sister, Jun Mingxi. I could even find an official position for your brother in our official family, ensuring a place for him in Yanshang Country!”
In any case, it was all about Ji Baijian.
Ji Baijian’s prowess had indeed made him a target for all.
Had he always been hiding himself in order to avoid this day, to avoid becoming a casualty on the battlefield of the official families?
She gritted her teeth.
“Of course, you can consider it,” Jun Minghan said, “If it’s suddenly put to you, it would be understandable if you can’t accept it immediately. Whether you choose Ji Baijian or your parents will be up to you! Personally, I prefer the second option.”
Song Zhizhi gave a faint smile.
She said, “Mr. Jun, what if I don’t choose either option?”
Jun Minghan’s face immediately darkened.
He stared fixedly at Song Zhizhi.
“True, the conditions Mr. Jun offered are very enticing. Whether it’s to win Ji Baijian over or to set him up, the conditions you set are very tempting, but! Everything you have offered us, Jun Mingyu can also provide. Why should I go the extra mile?”
“You better realize who has the upper hand in the current situation?!”
“Of course, it’s you, Master Jun!” Song Zhizhi didn’t deny. “But, when entrusted by others, we must be loyal. If we were to change our mind now and then, just as we could betray Third Young Master Jun, we could naturally betray you too, Master Jun, you definitely know this. Knowing this, yet you still try to win us over…”
Song Zhizhi laughed.
Her smile was deep with implications.
It was a reminder to Jun Minghan that she was aware of his ill intentions.
Being the smart man he was, Jun Minghan understood it instantly.
Song Zhizhi was questioning his sincerity.
He glared at her intently.
Song Zhizhi appeared calm, “Mr. Jun, you better not waste your time. If nothing else, I should return to my cell.”
“Song Zhizhi,” Jun Minghan called out to her.
“Yes?”
“Don’t you really want to take revenge on Qian Guanshu and Ye Wenhan? They orchestrated this all by themselves, do you intend to let them go unpunished?!”
“To be frank, I don’t give a damn about Qian Guanshu and Ye Wenhan. Those small actions they’re making are just actions of a clown dancing on a beam, they’re not worthy of causing a stir. Sooner or later, they will meet their downfall. It’s only a matter of time.” Song Zhizhi spoke casually. “Mr. Jun, you also chose to search for another ally after witnessing their incompetence, didn’t you?”
She was mocking him.
Mocking him, thinking she knew nothing.
Jun Minghan clenched his teeth.
Watching Song Zhizhi leave nonchalantly after dropping that bombshell…
Jun Minghan glared at the leaving figure of Song Zhizhi.
It seemed that winning over Song Zhizhi was not an easy task!
However!
Who would Song Zhizhi choose between her family and Ji Baijian?!
His eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth revealed a malicious grin.
Commercial Management Agency.
Ye Wenhan was in his office.
The court hearing yesterday had left him in an extremely suppressed state, and it was the same today.
Every time he thought of the scene where Song Zhizhi was declared innocent, he felt like committing a murder.
Song Zhizhi, Song Zhizhi!
He gnashed his teeth, his inner self twisted to the extreme.
Meanwhile, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Wenhan forced himself to calm down and said, “Come in.”
Chu Qin walked in.
Ye Wenhan gestured to Chu Qin to shut the door.
Chu Qin closed and locked the door.
Ye Wenhan then stood up from his office chair, walked over, and took Chu Qin’s hand directly.
Chu Qin didn’t resist and obediently followed Ye Wenhan to the couch in his office.
“Did you want to see me?” Chu Qin asked.
It had been a long time since Ye Wenhan had proactively sought her out. He’d been showing signs of annoyance recently.
His sudden initiative towards her made her feel pleasantly surprised.
“Can’t I simply miss you?” Ye Wenhan whispered sweet nothings in Chu Qin’s ear.
Chu Qin’s face flushed instantly.
She nestled willingly into Ye Wenhan’s shoulder, “I thought you wouldn’t want me after changing your status!”
“Don’t say such nonsense!” Ye Wenhan murmured. “I’m under a lot of pressure right now. Once everything is sorted out, I will marry you.”
Chu Qin’s heart pounded fiercely. “But I am still not divorced…”
“No rush, you can get a divorce after I finalize the date. If you divorce now, your father will definitely kill you, but if I can be with you, the situation will change.”
“Alright.”
“It’s just that…sigh!” Ye Wenhan suddenly sighed.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Qin was worried.
“You were also at the court yesterday, you saw it, Song Zhizhi is still as defiant as ever.”
Upon hearing his words, Chu Qin’s face flushed with rage.
Song Zhizhi had managed to turn the situation around, even after reaching such a point.
“Secretary Qian said that if I can’t settle Song Zhizhi, then I am not qualified to be the helmsman of Commercial Management. I’m under a lot of pressure!”
“But with both human and physical evidence present, what can we do?” Chu Qin asked.
Ye Wenhan cracked an icy smile that disappeared in an instant.
What to do?
If he couldn’t kill Song Zhizhi, then he would make you the scapegoat!
