Chapter 349 – This was his idea of not meddling? (1)
Ever since Lin Zhan had been recognized by Old Master Lu, his business had gone well with the help of his grandfather and the others.
Gone were the days when others gossiped about his unknown background or were rude to him all the time. Most of the time he was praised as being young and destined for great things.
Over the last two years, his achievement had already surpassed many of his generation. He had fame, power, status, and money. It seemed he had everything that he would ever want. Lin Zhan, however, knew better than anyone else that his days were busy but unfulfilled. There was a missing piece inside of him. His days in the last two years were much better than what they had been in the previous two years, yet he was still unhappy.
Days crawled by like years to him.
Lu Shaoyan had asked him before why he didn’t get a woman? He pointed at those under the flashing lights. He can take any unmarried ones with him to a hotel room upstairs. Even married ones, should that be what he desired.
Lu Shaoyan had whispered into his ear, “As long as you don’t get caught.”
Lin Zhan was well aware that Lu Shaoyan wasn’t one with a strong sense of morals.
But he didn’t react to that.
As far as he was concerned, all women under their shiny appearances were boring.
A sweeping statement, indeed, but Lin Zhan no longer had the patience to get to know them.
“You really think you can obtain evidence against Lu Beichuan so easily? Are you sure you can bring him down?” Lin Zhan had never crossed paths with Lu Beichuan in business, but he had heard a lot about Lu Beichuan from the elders and learned of many incidents in the past.
He was one who would always plan steps ahead even when he was young. As such, how would he make such simple mistakes of letting others collect evidence against him after all these years?
Something didn’t add up here.
Lin Zhan felt that Lu Shaoyan underestimated Lu Beichuan too much.
Lu Shaoyan, on the other hand, was very confident about the evidence that he had on hand. He made it seemed like the Lu Corporation would become his the moment he exposed the evidence that he possessed.
Lin Zhan toyed with the glowing colorful little ball in his hand. As though he had put all of his focus on playing with the ball, he did not bother giving Lin Zhan a whole spiel to convince him. He merely said to him, “Just you wait.”
Okay, he could certainly wait and see, thought Lin Zhan to himself.
And, if Lin Zhan was right and Lu Beichuan was brought down, what would happen to Ye Zhen?
A lively image flashed past Lin Zhan’s mind.
Even though he hadn’t seen Ye Zhen for a long time, her image stayed with him.
Lin Zhan did not truly think that Lu Shaoyan stood a chance against Lu Beichuan. Nevertheless, he couldn’t help but imagine what would happen to Ye Zhen in the event that Lu Beichuan was brought down.
Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen had a cute child and a happy family. He didn’t want to see the two of them being lovey dovey together and definitely would not want to hear the child calling them Daddy and Mommy. As such, he had never met up with Lu Beichuan even after Old Master Lu had recognized him.
Ye Zhen would probably wait for Lu Beichuan even if he was destitute or if he went to jail.
If he was sentenced to 10 years in jail, she would wait 10 years for him. If he was sentenced to 20 years in jail, then she would wait 20 years for him.
She would spend her entire life waiting for him.
Lin Zhan sighed deeply to himself.
He wished that Ye Zhen was a fickle person. Preferably more heartless. That way he would have the reasons and excuses for her to leave Lu Beichuan. No, if she was truly that kind of a person, she would leave Lu Beichuan on her own. He wouldn’t even need to do anything.
But Ye Zhen was a kind and stubborn person. She would not give up on Lu Beichuan even if he was in jail.
Lin Zhan lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly. Fantasies.
These were nothing more than just fantasies of his.
