Chapter 790: Chapter 790
Li Lei stared at Eldest Young Master Xu in shock, his gaze at this mont made Li Lei feel a chill run down her spine.
It was filled with sinister coldness, a look she had never seen in Eldest Young Master Xu before.
“What are you planning? How many things have you hidden from ?” Li Lei felt sowhat afraid.
But then Eldest Young Master Xu’s face returned to normal, and he sighed deeply.
“You should know, wife, about our family’s deep ties with the Xu Family, right? Now even our son knows about it, and he’s been secretly sending emails to make contact over there.”
“That’s why our son has been targeted.”
“Currently, the person at ho is not our real son. His na is Xu Qiangsen, he ca from over there, and happens to look extraordinarily similar to our son.”
Upon hearing Eldest Young Master Xu’s story, Li Lei felt it was sowhat bizarre.
Can there really be soone who looks so alike? It’s too much of a coincidence.
“So where has our son gone? Could it be he killed my son and is taking Xu Yang’s identity?”
“No, our son is now in the dark room, and nothing has happened to him; he’s just temporarily swapped identities with Xu Changsen.”
“I did this to protect our son’s safety; otherwise, they might harm him.”
“Obviously, this was also Xu Qiangsen’s request.”
“His goal is to use our son’s identity to approach Zhang Yang, but it appears Zhang Yang has already seen through his identity, so we need to help him with sothing.”
Li Lei constantly processed what Eldest Young Master Xu said; these people were after Zhang Yang.
“What do they plan to do to Zhang Yang, and why do we have to help them? Our family has no ties with them anymore.”
Saying this, Li Lei suddenly realized sothing, looking at Eldest Young Master Xu in disbelief.
“Could it be you’ve always had contact over there? Otherwise, how would you know so much?”
At this mont, Li Lei also recalled Zhang Yang’s previous warning; it seed Eldest Young Master Xu was involved in framing Zhang Yang, and now it appeared true.
However, Li Lei did not ntion this but instead wanted to see what Eldest Young Master Xu could say.
Eldest Young Master Xu surprisingly did not deny it, “That’s right, I’ve always been in contact with them, but it’s not by choice, rather out of necessity. You know their power; a slight mistake could bring us devastating consequences.”
“Moreover, they promised that if we help Xu Qiangsen achieve his goal this ti, we can return to the main family, which is their condition.”
“It’s quite a tempting condition, right? But wife, please believe , I didn’t agree with them because of this condition; it’s still about having no other choice. Otherwise, our entire family won’t be able to escape, and you know I’m not exaggerating.”
“I understand, Zhang Yang has shown kindness to our family, but with things reaching this point, we can’t risk our entire family over a bit of debt, right? If it were you, what would you choose?”
What Eldest Young Master Xu said reflected sincerity in his eyes.
It seed he had explained what needed to be explained; at least Li Lei hadn’t detected any flaws.
At this mont, Li Lei’s mood was incredibly heavy.
She couldn’t refute what Eldest Young Master Xu said, as these were the facts. Their power was indeed formidable, so strong it couldn’t be resisted.
The only thing Li Lei could think of now was to find Xu ngyan to persuade them not to harm Zhang Yang.
But then she considered, Xu ngyan was their biological daughter, and she knew their mindset prioritized family interests above all. Could Xu ngyan help? The hope seed faint.
Facing Eldest Young Master Xu’s question, Li Lei really didn’t know how to answer.
“Wife, let be the bad guy then; you can pretend like you don’t know anything, just be cautious around Xu Qiangsen.”
Li Lei lifted her head and asked Eldest Young Master Xu, “Can I know why Zhang Yang has to be dealt with?”
Eldest Young Master Xu gave a bitter smile, “Do you think we’re qualified to know?”
Li Lei’s mood was heavy, so after a mont, she suddenly retorted, “What if I want to stop you?”
Eldest Young Master Xu wasn’t surprised by Li Lei’s response, so calmly answered, “You can stop , but I’ll still do it because if I don’t cooperate, our son will never see daylight again.”
Li Lei’s heart trembled, her face turning instantly pale.
“They’re too excessive, too bullying, is there really no way out?”
“No way, and even aside from cooperating, if this task fails, our whole family will be punished.” Eldest Young Master Xu said with a serious expression.
“So, wife, I hope you can help . For the sake of our entire family, it would be best if you could help, though I won’t force you.”
Li Lei’s thoughts were a bit chaotic right now, and she didn’t know what to do.
Getting her to act against Zhang Yang was impossible.
But then again, their entire family had been taphorically threatened at knife-point.
“Wife, I’ve been wanting to ask you, why are you so close to Zhang Yang?”
“Since Zhang Yang helped us, but we’ve given what we should, we shouldn’t have further involvent. I always felt your relationship seed sowhat unusual.”
Though Eldest Young Master Xu seed calm, his eyes were filled with suspicion.
He was watching Li Lei’s expression closely, and though she panicked for a mont inside, she managed to stay composed.
“Zhang Yang’s dical skills are excellent, and it’s necessary to have good relations with such a person; there’s nothing wrong with that.”
Eldest Young Master Xu nodded at this, it made sense.
Were it not for those over there, he wouldn’t want to fall out with Zhang Yang either.
“Wife, what’s your choice?”
Li Lei shook her head, “I don’t know, I need to think carefully.”
“But before that, I want to see my son.”
Eldest Young Master Xu nodded, “No problem, I’ll take you there now.”
At this point, Li Lei suddenly thought of a question and asked Eldest Young Master Xu, “Did you participate in framing Zhang Yang for murder earlier?”
“No!” Eldest Young Master Xu answered without any hesitation, very definitively.
Li Lei’s expression changed; she had no doubts about Eldest Young Master Xu’s earlier words.
But this denial made Li Lei cautious.
“One more question, why must we be the ones to help with this? Why not rely on Xu ngyan? She’s far more capable than us; wouldn’t it make more sense?”
“So is there sothing else you’re hiding from ?”
