Chapter 687: Chapter 0687 Save Me, Save Me
After Lin Wenyuan left, Lin Zhennan sighed deeply, his face filled with complex emotions.
At Lin Zhennan’s side, the granny softly said, "Master, should we have someone watch over young master Wenyuan?"
"Keep an eye on him," Lin Zhennan said with a bitter face, "to prevent him from doing something foolish."
Lin Wenyuan had only this one son, Lin Qingyun, who was completely spoiled. Now that Lin Wenyuan had failed to persuade him, any outrageous actions could be fully understood.
"I’ll make arrangements!"
Saying this, the granny immediately left Lin Zhennan’s side.
After the granny had left, Lin Zhennan sighed once again and slowly stood up from the stone table, sadness gradually filling his eyes.
The one to die next was his grandson, how could he not feel heartache?
A moment later, the granny returned to Lin Zhennan’s side: "Master, I have made the arrangements."
Lin Zhennan nodded, "Granny, do you think if I found Mu Yingting, he would be interested in this matter?"
Lin Qingyun’s death had already been decided, and Lin Zhennan had guessed this from the start, which was why he had not interfered since.
However, he had secretly been investigating Ye Xunhuan. Heaven rewards the diligent, and he had discovered matters related to the Mu family, though only minor clues, but enough for him to utilize and control.
The granny pondered for a moment before saying, "Master, Mu Yingting may not be so easily manipulated, I fear."
"You are right, Mu Yingting is not easily manipulated, but I never planned to make him a pawn. I can cooperate with him!"
"Master, didn’t we also find out about a Pei family in Zhonghai Province?" the granny said lightly. "Why not make use of the Pei family?"
The Lin family had uncovered quite a bit of information. Anything related to Ye Xunhuan, potentially bearing any grudge, was now laid out by Lin Zhennan, ready to be utilized!
As for whether it would succeed, that was another story. Moreover, even if it did not succeed, he had nothing to lose. What’s more, in three days, someone from his family would be returning, and then they could make their move!
However, Lin Zhennan’s current thought was that the Lin family, if they could avoid coming forward, should stay behind the scenes, which would be the safest!
Hearing the granny mention the Pei family, Lin Zhennan’s eyebrows slowly furrowed, and he spoke in a somewhat depressed tone, "If the Pei family were going to act, they should have done so already. Up to now, there has been no movement at all. I’m worried there’s something fishy there!"
All along, Lin Zhennan has been a very cautious and careful man, taking one step but looking three steps ahead with every matter - not seeking speed, but stability!
This is also why the Lin family, even to this very day, has been able to establish a firm footing in the capital and become one of the leading families of the time!
The granny pondered briefly, "Master, we can put out some feelers. If it seems feasible, then we can proceed further. If not, we can turn to Mu Yingting and even the Ji family!"
"If it works, we use both, right?"
The granny nodded, "Yes, I think that would be very safe!"
Lin Zhennan did not answer immediately, but after thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "Let’s do that then. Ask Chang Feng to try and make contact!"
Lin Changfeng, the eldest son of Lin Zhennan, was a rather composed and experienced man, deeply trusted by Lin Zhennan.
The granny nodded, "I will go find young master Changfeng right now!"
"Granny, have someone keep a close watch on Wenyuan, and don’t let him leave the capital, not even a step!"
"Yes!"
Once the granny had left again, Lin Zhennan’s face, filled with sorrowful emotions, slowly revealed a thick sense of hatred!
"Ye Xunhuan, Feng Xingjiu, wait until Sun Zhedian and my brother Zhenbei return, I will take your lives!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhennan’s face showed a fierce and ruthless expression.
Ye Xunhuan was unaware of the plans being schemed by Lin Zhenbei in the capital, so after work, he returned to the villa.
When the housekeeper saw Ye Xunhuan arrive home, everything seemed just like before, as if she was completely unaware of the issues between Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi.
In the villa, Qiu Ruoxi wasn’t as enthusiastic towards Ye Xunhuan as she had been before, instead reverting to her former cold and aloof demeanor.
During dinner, Qiu Ruoxi didn’t speak a word to Ye Xunhuan.
After eating, Qiu Ruoxi went straight upstairs, without speaking a single word to Ye Xunhuan from start to finish.
For his part, Ye Xunhuan felt helpless. He wasn’t afraid of Qiu Ruoxi scolding him or anything, but he feared her falling into shutdown mode, which had indeed occurred.
This filled Ye Xunhuan with an unprecedented sense of helplessness.
After eating, Ye Xunhuan didn’t linger in the living room either, but quickly went upstairs, intending to talk with Qiu Ruoxi!
Seeing this, the housekeeper sighed softly.
"Mom, will Brother Ye and Sister Ruoxi really be okay?" Wang Zilin asked the housekeeper softly.
She also, by now, knew somewhat about the situation between Qiu Ruoxi and Ye Xunhuan.
The housekeeper affectionately touched Wang Zilin’s head, saying, "Silly girl, they will definitely be fine. The young lady is just showing her stubborn side right now. If the young master coaxes her well, everything will be okay!"
Qiu Ruoxi seemed to have known that Ye Xunhuan would come looking for her, sitting in the study waiting for him!
"Wife..."
"Is there something you want?"
This time, Qiu Ruoxi didn’t cold-shoulder Ye Xunhuan or ignore him.
"Wife, I know you’re upset, tell me what you want, just say the word..."
"What if I say to kick her out with one kick?" Qiu Ruoxi said in a tone neither harsh nor gentle, "Just kick her out, and from today onward, you and I are no longer just nominally husband and wife!"
Upon hearing this, surprise flashed across Ye Xunhuan’s face as he looked at Qiu Ruoxi in disbelief.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s shocked expression, Qiu Ruoxi spoke again, "Can’t you do it?" n𝚘𝚟pub.𝚌o𝚖
Hearing this again from Qiu Ruoxi, Ye Xunhuan slowly came to his senses, a bitter look on his face, "Wife, I know you’re angry, but asking me to kick Gu Yan out..."
He sighed deeply, "Sorry, it’s very hard for me to do that!"
"I know that saying this, you might curse me and hate me, but I don’t want to lie to you. If today, because of you, I can leave Gu Yan, then in the future, I might also leave you for another woman..."
"Are you making excuses for your infidelity?"
Just as Ye Xunhuan was about to speak, his phone in his pocket rang, and he looked apologetically at Qiu Ruoxi.
He answered the phone without hesitation.
As soon as the call connected, before Ye Xunhuan could speak, a choked and trembling voice came through the phone, "Ye Xunhuan, save me, save me..."
