Chapter 113: Why Can’t You Give Up Qin Muxuan
Yin Tiancheng took out a bottle of medicine. Only after he had swallowed a few pills did he come to himself.
A week ago, when Yin Tiancheng was hospitalized, Yin Youting had been dealing with the affairs all day. At that time, Yin Tiancheng decided to hide his sickness for a reason which only he knew.
Only after Yin Youting had taken over the Yin group did Yin Tiancheng finally put the word about his sickness out.
Yin Youting, frowning, looked at the pale face of Yin Tiancheng and asked, “What did the doctor say?”
“My condition is not so good. Luckily, it’s still in the early stage. I’ll recover after the treatment.”
Yin Tiancheng’s face looked gaunt. His lung cancer made him lose his appetite, and sometimes he couldn’t even eat anything for all day. As a result, he had got thinner and thinner during this week. His body used to be strong but now looked like a bamboo pole. His wrists were extremely thin and the blue veins all stood out.
“As long as I listen to the doctor, I’ll get out of the hospital one day.” Speaking of that, Yin Tiancheng chuckled, “So, does it make you angry hearing that I wouldn’t die for the moment?”
Yin Youting showed a sulky look and said, “What kind of person do you think I am? An unfilial son who wants his father to die?”
At that time when the Qin family met with a mishap and Qin Muxuan went missing, Yin Tiancheng did have found out where Qin Muxuan was but kept it a secret from Yin Youting. Moreover, Yin Tiancheng even lied that Qin Muxuan had killed herself by jumping into the sea in order to let Yin Youting give up finding her.
Yin Youting was not a stupid man and had seen through that lie at once.
“Ha ha ha, when you knew that I had hidden the news about Qin Muxuan on purpose, the look in your eyes truly was scary. I thought you would kill me directly.”
Yin Tiancheng started to laugh loudly. Although he was seriously ill, his laughter sounded quite vigorous, “If you can run the company with the efforts you have made to search for Qin Muxuan, the Yin Group would have been more powerful than the Gu Group long ago!”
“I will.” Yin Youting said that with a cold look, “You don’t need to tell me that.”
Everything he had done was for taking Qin Muxuan away from Gu Zijin someday. If he had known what happened to the Qin family and stayed with her at that time, the situation wouldn’t be like this.
Yin Youting showed a sorrowful look in his eyes, because he suddenly remembered the indifferent look in Qin Muxuan’s eyes when she had faced him. He felt like his heart was being stabbed several times, and the pain was unbearable.
“Do you know the inside story of the bankruptcy of the Qin family?”
Yin Youting calmed down. These days he had been busy dealing with the affairs in the company. In the meantime, he had also hired a senior personal detective to investigate Qin’s bankruptcy. However, the detective told him that Yin Tiancheng also knew something about what happened to the Qin’s family. Perhaps this man was part of the reason for that result or knew the reason for the bankruptcy but chose to look on with folded arms.
Hearing Yin Youting’s question, Yin Tiancheng, with a meaningful smile on his face, said, “Inside story? What nonsense are you talking about? Also, it happened long ago, I am an old man with a poor memory after all.”
Yin Tiancheng, serious as his illness was, still acted very shrewdly, leaving no flaws in his speech.
At the moment, Yin Tiancheng started to cough again with his hand covering his mouth. It was very hard for him to stop the cough. When he opened his palm, he saw blood on it.
Perhaps this time he had coughed too hard. He said calmly in a hoarse voice, “Call the doctor.”
Yin Youting knew that he was not able to get the answer from Yin Tiancheng now. There was no way Yin Tiancheng would tell him so easily.
Then, Yin Youting lowered his head to cover the emotion in his eyes and called the doctor right away.
“Youting, just give her up.”
Before Yin Youting left the ward, Yin Tiancheng said that flatly. The former didn’t say anything and left without turning around.
Yin Youting walked in the corridor alone. The light bulb in the corridor seemed to be broken. The flickering light fell on his face, reflecting the obscure look in his eyes.
‘I won’t give up.’
‘I will never give up Qin Muxuan.’
The calm was always before the storm.
The power struggle went on secretly between Yin Tiancheng and Yin Youting. The same thing also happened in the Gu’s family.
After Gu Zijin arrived in the Gu’s house, he saw Elderly Lady Gu waiting for him on the couch as he had expected. The people accompanying Elderly Lady Gu were Mrs. Gu and Yan Yuxiao.
“Zijin, are you going to listen to your old grandma’s words or not?” Elderly Lady Gu asked coldly, “Have you finished solving Yuxiao’s problem?”
Hearing Elderly Lady Gu’s question, Gu Zijin took off his suit with a leisurely look and told Nanny Chen to hang it. Then he said, “Before I do that, I need to ask Yan Yuxiao something.”
Since Yan Yuxiao ignored his warning by coming to his house and complaining first, he wouldn’t show any mercy to her then.
Until now, Gu Zijin had finished collecting all the evidences. The reason why he hadn’t exposed her plot was that he wanted to see whether she would be so desperate and come to the Gu’s house.
As a result, she really had stepped on the landmine and come.
Gu Zijin couldn’t help but snort inwardly.
“What do you want?!”
Elderly Lady Gu protected Yan Yuxiao instinctively.
Yan Yuxiao, having heard that Gu Zijin targeted her straightly, got nervous right away. After calming herself down, she answered him and dared not look right into his eyes, “Zijin, what do you want to ask me?”
“The night when Qin Xiaobai ran away from home, you were also here, right?”
Gu Zijin went straight to the point while walking over to Yan Yuxiao directly. His sharp eyes gave Yan Yuxiao a lot of pressure.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
“I’ve checked the surveillance video of the place in front of the door. Two minutes after you left, Xiaobai ran away from home.” Gu Zijin gave a sneer, and there was only coldness in his eyes, “What a coincidence! Don’t you think so?”
Yan Yuxiao indirectly caused the car accident that Qin Muxuan had.
The night when he saw Qin Muxuan was hit by the car, the blood inside him had almost frozen and there was a buzzing in his ears. He had almost gone mad.
If it were not for his last bit of ration, that driver might have already lain in the hospital now.
When he thought of that, the look in Gu Zijin’s eyes turned even colder. Then he looked to Yan Yuxiao straightly and said, “I need an explanation.”
With cold sweat in Yan Yuxiao’s hands, she shook her head stiffly and said, “Zijin, I don’t know what you are talking about. I did have stayed very late in the Gu’s house that night, but I’ve never talked to Xiaobai! You’ve wronged me!”
Yan Yuxiao still refused to admit, even now.
“Xiaobai already told me everything.” Gu Zijin continued, “He told me everything you said to him that night.”
At first, Elderly Lady Gu had still wanted to put in a good word for Yan Yuxiao, but after she had heard Gu Zijin’s words, she also got a bit suspicious. She remembered that the night when Qin Xiaobai went missing, Yan Yuxiao who had stayed in her room did have disappeared all of a sudden.
Thinking of the words Gu Zijin had just said, Elderly Lady Gu couldn’t help but wonder if Yan Yuxiao really had something to do with that.
“Zijin, I… I really have been wronged!”
