Chapter 484: Chapter 484: The Worst Plan
“Brother, is it really true?” Chen Lingng’s eyes held fearful tears as she anxiously looked up at Chen Wenzhou for comfort.
Chen Wenzhou nodded affirmatively, gently rubbing his hand on Chen Lingng’s head.
“Of course it’s true. If he had concrete evidence that your leg is fine, he would have exposed it by now rather than just mouthing off here. You do know what kind of person Pei Yansi is, don’t you?”
Chen Lingng actually didn’t know this. She only knew she loved Pei Yansi. Love could blind and deafen, pushing one recklessly forward without care.
“But brother, you also said that even if he doesn’t currently have enough evidence, given his capabilities, it won’t be long before he finds other proofs. Then, the truth will co out.”
Chen Lingng trembled with fear, her hands quivering slightly. Chen Wenzhou saw this and grasped her hands.
“ngng, don’t be afraid. No matter what, Grandpa and I are behind you; the Chen Family will always be your strong backing.” Chen Wenzhou’s gaze fell on Chen Lingng’s legs, his brows furrowing at the thought of Pei Yansi.
What Chen Lingng said was a frightened, irrational declaration, one that should not be taken to heart.
However, she was right about one thing. Given Pei Yansi’s capabilities, even if he didn’t have enough evidence now, given ti, he might indeed uncover the entire deception.
In such a situation, if they could tie Chen Lingng to Pei Yansi sooner and have the two families united through marriage, their reputations would be bound together.
At that ti, if Pei Yansi intended to expose the lies, he would have to consider the repercussions on Pei Company’s reputation and the losses it would incur.
It seed necessary to hasten the union between Chen Lingng and Pei Yansi. There should be no more delays in their matter, as Chen Wenzhou no longer had the ti to partake in this ga.
With this in mind, Chen Wenzhou slowly crouched down, holding Chen Lingng’s hands, looking into her eyes.
Tears had begun to roll down Chen Lingng’s face. She gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and patiently called his na, “ngng, listen to , you must stay calm at a ti like this. We absolutely cannot let Pei Yansi catch any hints.”
“I know it’s tough for you to remain calm right now, but despite that, you must do as I say. Since he ntioned that your leg isn’t broken, he must already have so evidence.”
“But the evidence in his hands isn’t convincing enough yet, so he hasn’t exposed everything yet.”
“But now that he has this lead, he will follow it up and investigate further. All we can do now are two things: get you married to Pei Yansi soon. Once our families’ reputations are fully intertwined, we will share both honor and disgrace.”
“Then, Pei Yansi will definitely need to consider the consequences. And even if he decides to expose the Chen Family’s truth at that ti, the loss it will bring him will be substantial.”
Hearing Chen Wenzhou’s words, Chen Lingng nodded vigorously, franticly wiping away her fragnted tears.
“Brother, you are right. I will listen to everything you say. I need to marry Pei Yansi soon to protect our secret.”
Wenzhou looked at Ling ng’s expression and paused for a mont.
He then said gravely, “ngng, you can’t be too optimistic about this matter either. Even if our families are united, and our nas are bound together, we can’t guarantee that Yansi won’t do sothing outrageous and confess everything.”
“Just think about it; if the two families form an alliance, the reputation of both the Pei Group and the Chen Group will be tied together. If Yansi decides to put his family business first and their PR does a good job, Yansi might not suffer any damage. Instead, he could benefit from a surge in popularity.”
Upon hearing Wenzhou’s words, Ling ng was about to be reassured but, hearing his continuation, she couldn’t help but tightly grasp Wenzhou’s hand.
“Brother, then what should we do now?”
Wenzhou sighed, withdrew his hand that Ling ng had grasped, and gently placed it on the back of her hand.
He helplessly looked up at Ling ng, “In this situation, we only have one last option left to us. That is, if you truly lose both your legs, but unless it’s absolutely necessary, I would never allow you to take such a risk.”
“What are you saying? You really want to turn into a disabled person? Absolutely not! I’ve been thoroughly fed up sitting in this wheelchair these days. If you tell to spend my entire life in a wheelchair, it would be worse than death. Just let die instead!”
Ling ng, fearful upon hearing Wenzhou’s words, pulled her hands away and looked at Wenzhou with a face full of resistance.
“ngng, don’t get agitated. I was talking about the worst-case scenario. We’re not at the point of no return yet, and you don’t really need to beco disabled. I’m just saying, if things don’t go well, the worst outco would be that your legs would really have to be amputated.”
“If by then your legs are really gone, the evidence that Yansi cos up with might not be compelling.”
“But Brother, I don’t want to beco disabled. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. I’m still so young; how can I spend my entire life in a wheelchair?”
Ling ng, scared, grabbed Wenzhou’s hand and shook it forcefully, her eyes shattered.
Wenzhou sighed softly and patted Ling ng’s hand to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will do everything in my power to save your legs and will not let it co to this.”
“Brother, then I leave it all up to you. I will listen to you, and do whatever you tell to do.”
Upon hearing these words, Wenzhou found Ling ng a bit more tolerable. He nodded, then stood up and left.
He still had another trump card in his hand; that was Yuexue. As long as he had Yuexue in his hands, he could manipulate Shen Heyu accordingly.
After saying goodbye to Pei Yan, Heyu returned to the hospital to take care of Lu Yi.
The situation with Lu Yi was very bleak, and even more disheartening was Lu Yi’s mindset, as he was still dwelling on last night’s incident at the hotel.
“Why haven’t you been cooperating with the dication? What’s happening here?” Heyu had received a phone call from the hospital nurse and had rushed back, though he also had other matters to handle.
“A useless person like might as well be dead.”
