Xu Ke decided to stop pretending and lay her cards on the table. “Even if 1 did it to please you, I’ve also been helping you for many years. Now that things have come to this, what are you going to compensate me for?”
Xu Lian was so angry that she laughed.
This was the first time she had seen someone threaten her so confidently.
Xu Lian said, “It’s not easy to get a job in the capital. My dad will arrange a job for you in Lan City. Don’t worry. Even if the Xu family goes bankrupt, it won’t affect your new job.”
Xu Ke did not feel embarrassed at all. She nodded.
Xu Ke reminded Xu Lian. “Lu Huai will be quite angry that you set up Pei Xin’s son. I think you shouldn’t try to be Lu Huai’s girlfriend. He won’t like you.”
Xu Lian glared at her coldly. “If you keep talking, my dad won’t bother finding you a job.”
Xu Ke shrugged helplessly and sat beside Xu Lian.
Although the two of them had just quarreled, they had grown up together. Now that Xu Lian had arranged a new job for her, Xu Ke had finally calmed down.
Xu Ke took the initiative to persuade Xu Lian more.
“Men don’t like to scheme against others with evil intentions. It’s fine if you target Pei Xin, but you even schemed against Pei Xin’s child. Lu Huai will think that you’re evil.
“I think you shouldn’t do anything to harm them anymore. Lu Huai will remember that you helped him six years ago but only because he owes you. Nothing else more.”
Xu Lian widened her eyes at Xu Ke. “How did you know about my relationship with Lu Huai?”
She had clearly lied to Xu Ke previously about the matter. She had some interactions with Lu Huai and told her that Lu Huai was very likely to become her boyfriend.
She used this to trick Xu Ke into helping her implement the child abduction plan.
Xu Ke smiled. “Of course, your dad was the one that told me. Heeven asked me to persuade you to stop. He said that beating you was for your own good. He just wants you to stop making bad decisions. The Xu family’s bankruptcy won’t benefit you at all. He told you to stop messing around.”
Xu Lian felt very awkward.
She waved her hand helplessly. “I understand. I won’t cause trouble for Pei Xin in the future. You should leave quickly. I don’t need your comfort or help.”
Xu Ke chatted with Xu Lian for a while more before leaving.
When Xu Lian was left alone, she sat on the spot dejectedly and could not stop her tears from flowing.
Xu Lian recalled what she had done over the past few days and realized that she had become a stranger to herself.
In the past, she had never bothered to do such things. She never used sneaky tricks to fight for a man.
Now, in order to teach Pei Xin a lesson, she actually directly attacked her child.
Xu Lian looked at her hands and felt that she had become unclean.
She had never been like this. She had never done anything to harm others since she was young.
Why? Was it because she fell in love with Lu Huai?
It seemed that liking Lu Huai had become a threat to the Lu family.
Forget it. Since that was the case, she should give up on this love.
Lu Huai would reject her anyway.
On Pei Xin’s side, she was giving Ling Lin a hot bath.
When the two of them came out, Ling Jin had already cooked four bowls of noodles.
Officer Annie was also sitting in their house.
“Officer Annie has been helping us look for the child,” Ling Jin explained. “She hasn’t eaten yet, so she stayed for dinner.”
When he said this, Ling Jin looked a little embarrassed.
“Thank you, Officer Annie,” Pei Xin said with a smile. “If it wasn’t for your help finding me a job in Haicheng, I wouldn’t even be here. It’s all thanks to you that I was able to make some friends in Haicheng City. Now that I’m back in Beijing, I have a job. I should have treated you to a meal a long time ago. I’m sorry that this is all I can offer for now.”
Pei Xin’s enthusiasm and generosity made Annie a little embarrassed.
Rubbing her short hair, she said, “It’s okay. I wanted to help you guys anyway. I might not be able to help you in another city, but 1 can in Haicheng. That’s my hometown. At least 1 have some connections there.”
Annie started to talk more when she talked about Haicheng..
