54: Chapter 54 No Use Value Anymore
54 -54 No Use Value Anymore
It was someone from the Lin Family.
Lin Yibin’s head was wrapped with layers of gauze, and as he approached, he knocked on the car window, his face contorted grotesquely.
“If you know what’s good for you, get out of the car willingly, and I won’t have to lift a finger.”
Chi Yue sat between two bodyguards and looked outside the window, “Mr.
Lin, I have no grudges against you, why are you constantly targeting me?”
Lin Yibin pointed at his head, “See this?
It’s all because of you.”
Chi Yue blinked her innocent almond eyes, “You know better than anyone that I’m not capable of that.
If you let me go, I can tell you a secret.”
As she spoke, Chi Yue passed a piece of paper over.
Just as Lin Yibin took it, Chi Yue whispered to the driver, “Drive.”
The car shot away like a bullet and soon disappeared from view.
Lin Yibin opened the piece of paper Chi Yue had handed him and found it completely blank, not a single word written on it.
Lin Yibin crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it out, “Chi Yue!”
At the same time, Chi Jianshan received news that Chi Yue had been intercepted by Lin Yibin on the way.
Chi Jianshan was not very worried, because he knew that even if Chi Yue was taken by Lin Yibin, the bodyguards could still bring back what he needed.
However.
Chi Yue returned unharmed.
Chi Jianshan asked, “Did the Lin Family and the Chi Family come looking for you?”
“Yes.”
“They didn’t do anything to you, did they?”
“No.”
Chi Jianshan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, “Good, just give me the appraisal report.”
Chi Yue paused, “I gave the appraisal report to Lin Yibin.”
Chi Jianshan initially froze, then erupted in anger, “Why did you give it to him?”
“I gave him this secret, and he let me leave.”
Chi Jianshan was furious, “Out of everything you could have given him, why that?”
Chi Yue’s expression remained calm, “The only secret I have is this one; giving away a secret that isn’t a secret in exchange for my safety, don’t you think that’s worth it?”
“Of course, it’s not… right.” Chi Jianshan took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, “As long as you are alright, just bring back the appraisal report tomorrow.”
Chi Yue: “Okay.”
Back in her room, Chi Yue took out Fu Rongyin’s private phone, which had neither messages nor calls on it.
She was about to call Nan Bingyu when someone knocked on her door.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me.”
It was Chi Qingqing.
Chi Yue: “If it’s something important, just say it from there.”
Outside the door, Chi Qingqing clenched her fist and gritted her teeth.
She would rather swallow her pride and approach Chi Yue, yet she wouldn’t even open the door for her.
She turned back to her room and dialed Lin Yibin’s number.
“Mr.
Lin, I’ve thought about what you said earlier, and I am willing to cooperate with you.
However, I have a better plan.
As far as I know, ever since Fu Rao has been with her, he hasn’t laid a finger on her.
If you want, I can help you…”
Chi Yue stayed in her room for a while until the nanny called her downstairs to eat.
As Chi Yue went downstairs, she noticed that Chi Jianshan and Yang Shulan were not there.
Seeing her looking for someone, Chi Qingqing said, “Dad and mom have gone to my aunt’s house.
You should really bring back that appraisal report sooner.
My uncle will be going over to get the appraisal report the day after tomorrow, and if he discovers that we’ve tampered with it, our family’s company is finished.”
Chi Jianshan’s company had been running poorly, and it was only with the help of Yang Shulan’s nouveau riche brother-in-law’s assistance that they could even keep going this past year.
This was also why Chi Jianshan was so concerned about this matter.
Chi Yue lowered her head to eat, “Whether the company fails or not doesn’t really concern me.”
If she brought back a fake appraisal report, then she would be of no use anymore.
Chi Qingqing watched Chi Yue’s indifferent attitude and nearly snapped her chopsticks in frustration.
She kept telling herself to bear with it, just a little longer would be enough.
But unexpectedly, the very next day, she could no longer hold back.
