Shi Nian got her message and nonchalantly replied, “Alright, I’ll accompany you so you won’t mess around.”
Yun Liu immediately beamed when she heard that. “Alright. Let’s go together then. ”
She moved to push Shi Nian’s wheelchair, but Shi Xiu smoothly got to it before she did, making Yun Liu slightly annoyed and disappointed. Yun Zhang, who was following her step by step, placed his arm around her shoulders and patted her consolingly, saying, “I’ll go with you guys.”
Yun Liu’s heart warmed. Shi Xiu smiled at Yun Zhang and commented, “Big
Brother Yun Zhang, you’re so nice to Yun Liu.”
Yun Zhang smiled and said nothing, and Yun Liu lowered her head shyly out of habit. Yun Liu was completely absorbed in the joy of finally having cracked open a way into the Shi family right now and had no idea that while she was setting up others, she was also being set up.
“I want Gu Man to disappear off the face of the earth!” Lin Yu uttered coldly.
Lan Long looked at her and slowly gave her a warm smile. “It’s hard to imagine someone as gentle as Young Madam Xi would say such vicious words. Evidently, Gu Man has done something you very much can’t tolerate.”
Lin Yu’s expression was icy, and she didn’t say anything. The two were standing in a corridor of the hospital. At the end of the corridor was Xiang Yangs ward, and no one could approach it.
Lan Long stared at the ward from afar and stated, “You can get rid of one woman, and another will appear. Young Madam Xi, are you sure you want to clear the obstacles between you and your husband by constantly using this method?”
Lin Yu’s eyes misted, and Lan Long sighed lightly, “You’ve done so much for the Xi family, but Xi Cheng betrays you like this. What’s the point of keeping him?”
Lin Yu trembled. “What are you planning to do? You can’t touch him!”
Lan Long chuckled, “So you still love him. Relax; I won’t touch him. He has nothing to do with me. We’re partners; I’ll naturally look out for those you care about. I’m just reminding you not to let him hold his seat of power if he’s useless. After all,” Lan Long’s gaze swept across Lin Yu’s abdomen before continuing, “you already have a successor in your belly; what are you afraid
Lin Yu subconsciously placed her hand on her stomach. “The most important thing to you is to take the Xi Corporation into your own hands. As for what woman Xi Cheng has with him… She’s only just a woman. Why do you care which one it is?” Lan Long asked softly.
“You’re protecting Gu Man?” Lin Yu said with astute sharpness.
Lan Long shrugged. ‘ This woman’s indeed smart—smarter and more perceptive than Shi Gao and Gu Man.’ He smiled and answered, “Not really. I need her to do work for me.”
Lin Yu looked at him. After a while, her expression eased. “If she’s just a tool to you, can you give her to me when you no longer need her?”
“Sure,” Lan Long replied unhesitatingly.
Lin Yu was quite satisfied with his prompt attitude. She turned around and glanced at the room at the end of the corridor. “Xiang Yang’s awake, but she’s not altogether there mentally. She doesn’t talk or move; she’s like a puppet. No, more like, she’s the living dead. Shi Ke is with her all the time, and the Shi family watches over her very closely. No one else can get close. I went to great lengths before I got the information out of the cleaner bit by bit.”
Lan Long squinted and looked at the end of the corridor without saying anything. Lin Yu tentatively inquired, “You want to kill her? Or do you want to snatch her over?”
Lan Long’s expression cooled, and he detachedly said, “Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask.”
Lin Yu shut her mouth. A nurse ran over to say, “Mr. Lan! Mr. Lan! The old man’s asking for you!”
Lan Long turned to follow the nurse but stopped after taking a couple of steps and turned back to tell Lin Yu, “The drug you asked for is ready. Just contact Ah Tao when you need it.”
“Thank you!” Lin Yu uttered softly. Her gaze followed Lan Long into the ward before she turned around and left.
When she reached the elevator, Lin Yu couldn’t help but look back toward Xiang Yang’s ward. ‘I don’t understand why some women could garner such possessiveness from men,’ she thought. ‘They clearly don’t have anygood points and are incapable of doing anything; all they have is a bad temper, whereas some women would spend their entire lives working hard, exhausting all efforts, but fail to get a single shred oflove. Instead, everything they do is taken for granted.’
‘Like me, for example,’ she inwardly sighed. ‘ Therefore, I’ll do anything to get everything I want, and I’ll destroy those worthless women who make me jealous by any means necessary.’
‘In the future, I’ll onlyplease myself,’ Yun Liu thought as she placed her hand on her belly. In there lies a small being connected to her by blood, but she couldn’t establish any emotional bond with it.
Because she didn’t love the child..
