Chapter 174: Chapter 174 The Extortion Texts Are Back Again Chapter 174: Chapter 174 The Extortion Texts Are Back Again Wen Nianyou disdainfully pushed away Lin Yueqin’s hand, “Get out! Who allowed you to touch ? Let tell you, if you don’t deal with Lin Chuyi, don’t think about working as a servant in our house anymore, I’ll fire you!”

Lin Yueqin’s face stiffened, her chest heaving violently. Lady Wen had never ntioned firing her, yet her own daughter was threatening to fire her, which truly chilled her to the bone.

But after a mont, she suppressed her anger again, “How do you plan to deal with her? You surely can’t be thinking of killing her? If she dies, the police will definitely investigate thoroughly, and then her true identity won’t remain hidden.”

Wen Nianyou was extrely irritated, “I was just speaking hypothetically, of course she can’t die! How can you be so stupid!”

Apart from the fact that the police investigation into her cause of death could expose Ye Chuyi’s identity, what was more important was that she wanted to crush Ye Chuyi underfoot severely, to see Ye Chuyi living in agony was what she truly wanted.

“She must be living too comfortably now, being a secret lover for two n. It’s bad enough that she has money to spend, but she’s also beco incredibly arrogant, no longer the pitiable figure that I used to manipulate when we were younger.”

Wen Nianyou’s teeth were nearly clenched to breaking, “n are so unreliable. If Sheng Tingyuan and Cong Ningyuan can find Lin Chuyi to be their lover, they could also find soone else. They’re just after sothing new, and if anything fresher cos along, Lin Chuyi will definitely be discarded!”

Unable to help herself, Lin Yueqin asked, “What are you planning to do? You’re not considering becoming their lover, are you?”

Wen Nianyou rolled her eyes, “Do you think I’m an idiot? Why would I choose to be soone’s mistress when I could be the young Madam of the Qi Family? Do you think I’m like Lin Chuyi, that lowly thing? I’m the precious daughter of the Wen Family, how could I stoop so low?”

“Then who do you plan to have take that little beast’s spot as their lover?”

“I haven’t been idle lately, I’ve been busy finding people to dig up dirt on Sheng Tingyuan and Cong Ningyuan’s private lives. Cong Ningyuan is a workaholic, always in etings or organizing various dinner parties to maintain relationships. I haven’t figured out his preferences in won just yet.”

Wen Nianyou actually wanted to conquer Cong Ningyuan the most, but unfortunately, Cong Ningyuan was too clean, with no scandals or bad habits, and he seed to have little interest in won, focused solely on making his Jungle Pharmaceutical number one in the industry.

She had been digging in to Cong Ningyuan’s private life for a month now and hadn’t unearthed anything; she didn’t even understand how Ye Chuyi managed to win Cong Ningyuan over.

“However, it seems there’s a vulnerability with Sheng Tingyuan that I could exploit.”

Lin Yueqin quickly asked, “What vulnerability? Can I be of help? Or let Shi Youjin help, he was quite useful last ti getting you that invitation.”

“Pfft, what help could you guys possibly offer ? Just don’t hold back! There’s soone who can help with this.”

Wen Nianyou said dismissively, standing up to leave.

Before she could leave, her phone buzzed. A ssage caught her eye: “The five million you paid is too late and doesn’t count. Give another ten million as hush money, or I’ll spill your secret.”

Wen Nianyou’s pupils contracted sharply, she gripped her phone tightly, and abruptly looked outside.

Outside, the housemaid was collecting the dried sheets and covers, and the gardener was pruning the flowers. Everything seed normal as if the person extorting her had no connection to the household.

But Wen Nianyou still found them all very suspicious.

After all, the only place she had spoken about her identity issue with Lin Yueqin was at ho. She never ntioned it outside, so it was impossible for outsiders to know the secret, let alone extort her for it.

Seeing her halt in her steps and her complexion turn ugly, Lin Yueqin hurried forward, “What’s wrong?”

“The person who’s blackmailing sent another ssage, now they want ten million,” Wen Nianyou disclosed.

“What?! But didn’t you already pay five million? Why do they still want more?”

“Hmph! It’s like a bottomless pit. This person has sothing on and of course, they want to bleed dry. They tasted sweet success with the five million!”

“What can be done about this? Do you have ten million?”

“I do, but I’m afraid if I give ten million now, they’ll later demand twenty or thirty million,” she mused.
