Chapter 245: Missing the Truth

Lin Rushang got goose bumps all over her body and shivered violently.

"No need for that."

In fact, Lin Rushuang was really curious about He Tingchen's amazing energy. Was it because he was naturally energetic or because he hadn't been with other women for a long time?

He Tingchen opened the car door and subconsciously reached out to support Lin Rushang, but Lin Rushang dodged him.

"I can get in the car by myself, and I'm not that squeamish."

He Tingchen's dark eyes glanced meaningfully at her lower body, as if in agreement.

"Well, you're not a squeamish person. The doctor told you to stay in bed as much as possible, but you're still jumping around. It doesn't seem that serious."

He held the roof of the car with one hand, bent down slightly and leaned towards Lin Rushang.

"Sister Lin, you are pretending, right? You don't want me to touch you, right?"

After hearing his ridiculous remarks, Lin Rushuang was glad that she and He Tingchen were not really in a relationship. With his mouth, he could really make people so angry that they would have a myocardial infarction.

Maybe you’ll see her untimely death on the headlines someday.

Cause of death: Being poisoned by his significant other’s harsh words.

She reached out to hold the car door, glanced at him lazily, and pulled the door inward, forcing He Tingchen to squeeze out.

He Tingchen sat deeply in the driver's seat and got back to the point.

"My old man is going to celebrate his birthday in a couple of days. Come with me."

Lin Rushang was caught off guard when she heard this.

"So soon?"

She wasn't ready yet.

He Tingchen drove the car towards the apartment.

"Even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law."

Lin Rushuang clenched her hands tightly, then thought that this was actually a good thing. She and He Tingchen had an agreement, the purpose of which was to make their old man give up introducing her to a girlfriend.

She fulfilled his wish, and she felt relieved.

However, there was one thing that Lin Rushang was the first to remind him of.

"I'm going to be frank with you. If your family doesn't go too far, I'll let it go for your sake. But if they do go too far, like your aunt did, don't blame me if I can't help it."

He Tingchen heard this and a low laugh suddenly escaped his throat.

"Do you think I'll let you put up with my temper? Go ahead and rant, and I'll clean up the mess for you."

He Tingchen's words made Lin Rushuang feel relieved.

She had previously worried that a wealthy noble like He Tingchen would probably be even more strict than the Li family.

Before she entered the Li family, she suffered a lot from Li Yaqin, including all kinds of sarcasm and difficulties, but she endured it all for Li Wenyuan's sake.

But ever since Li Wenyuan got together with his white moonlight, Lin Rushang suddenly realized that blindly tolerating him would only make him worse.

In the end, she almost became a vegetable. Her two brushes with death made her indifferent to love.

Never question sincerity, but sincerity changes rapidly.

From then on, she made up her mind that no matter whether she would look for someone again in the future, she would never compromise again.

Lin Rushang felt like she was in prison in He Tingchen's apartment for the next few days. He hired a servant from somewhere to take care of her daily life.

Aunt Wang is a very nice person, with kind eyes. She always smiles with her eyes narrowed when she looks at people, and she speaks very politely.

Lin Rushuang couldn't help but think of her grandmother who was the same.

But she didn't understand why such a good person like grandma would look for such a cruel person like grandpa. Since she disappeared, she has never seen grandpa look for her.

There was no news at all, as if she was no longer a granddaughter.

He Tingchen raised his hand and touched her head. His warm palm gave Lin Rushang a sense of security that she had never felt in the past few years.

"If you have any concerns, you can tell me."

Lin Rushuang shook her head: "Nothing."

but……

She raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at He Tingchen's hand on her head.

Why did the feeling when He Tingchen touched his head feel a bit like when he touched Shuangshuang?

He couldn't be treating himself like a dog.

Lin Rushang quickly withdrew from his palm.

"Can I ask you something?"

He Tingchen was lying comfortably on the car seat. Hearing this, he glanced at Lin Rushang sideways, his sharp eyes seemed to have seen through everything.

"You want to ask about Li Wenyuan's uncle, right?"

Lin Rushuang knew that if she pretended to be smart when talking to a shrewd man like He Tingchen, it would only disgust him.

Just be more open about it.

"Um."

"You don't need to ask me. When our old man's birthday comes, Li Wenyuan will also go. If he goes, how can his uncle not go?"

Lin Rushuang understood the implication of He Tingchen's words. What he meant was that on that day, everyone would naturally know who Li Wenyuan's uncle was.

She didn't need to go to the trouble of asking here.

This time, she really wanted to see who this mysterious person who had been hiding for so many years was.

It was not for anything else, it was just pure curiosity. After all, if she said there was no connection, Lin Rushang felt as if she had some connection with him several times.

And she really wanted to know what the person who could suppress Li Wenyuan looked like.

The next day.

Lin Rushang received a call from Yang Xin, who urged her.

"Hurry up! If you don't take action now, I tell you, that project will really belong to Li Wenyuan. Li Wenyuan has been like crazy lately, socializing like crazy."

"I think she was provoked by you. Things are different now. Lin Rushuang is no longer someone she can reach."

Even Yang Xin felt that Lin Rushang came back this time to wash away the previous shame.

As soon as he came back, he dealt Li Wenyuan a heavy blow, catching him off guard.

Lin Rushuang suddenly remembered at this moment: "Wait a moment, I'll get my computer and send you the plan..."

Just as she finished speaking and was about to run somewhere else, she suddenly remembered.

It's over. She is now at He Tingchen's house, not her own home.

"I...I'm not home right now."

Yang Xin's eyes almost went dark after hearing this: "You're not at home, where are you now?"

"I am here……"

Lin Rushuang was too embarrassed to say that she was with He Tingchen, and she stammered and couldn't say anything for a long time.

As a result, Yang Xin almost thought that she was in danger and asked quickly.

"Hurry up and tell me where you are. Are you in any danger?"

"I'm telling you, if you're in danger, just cough lightly and I'll call the police immediately."

Yang Xin said in a low voice.

Lin Rushuang felt that Yang Xin was probably particularly worried about her own safety because she had always been in danger before.

She gets nervous if something goes wrong.

She was also afraid that Yang Xin might accidentally call the police.

Lin Rushang could only tell Yang Xin the truth.

"I'm here with Mr. He."

"Mr. He! You two! When did you get together? Rushuang, you didn't even tell me about such a big thing."

When Yang Xin heard this, she was so surprised that she almost cried out. Lin Rushang had worked with Yang Xin for so many years, how could she not know her habits.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Rushang cleverly moved the phone away.

Only after Yang Xin finished speaking did Lin Rushang put the phone back to her ear.

"Could you please be a little quieter? You almost broke my eardrum."

"Anyone would be surprised by this kind of thing. So, when did you two get together? Are you really together?"

After Yang Xin finished speaking, she felt like something was wrong.

"But that doesn't make sense. Didn't you ask Mr. Li's uncle for help with your father's problem? Why are you asking Mr. He again..."

Having said that, Yang Xin paused and suddenly raised his voice.

"Could it be that... Mr. He is Mr. Li's uncle?"
