Chapter 161 Threats and Exploitation



Everyone was waiting anxiously outside the ward.

Only after Lin Xuqiu's condition stabilized was he allowed to briefly visit the ward.

Everyone walked into the ward quietly, and no one made a sound, for fear of disturbing Lin Xuqiu who was resting.

Lin Xuqiu was lying quietly on the bed, breathing oxygen, with IV drips hanging on both hands. Her eyes were slightly closed, with a hint of forbearance between her brows. There was no trace of redness on her snow-white face, and her skin, as delicate as jade, looked even whiter at this moment.

Wen Jihuai looked at his sister-in-law lying quietly on the bed from a distance of two meters. He felt like a huge stone was pressing on his heart. His brows were furrowed, his shoulders were tense, and he couldn't say a word.

He didn't even dare to look at his elder brother who was not far away.

Because he stood on his parents' side today, covered for his mother, and acted with his father, he felt ashamed to face his elder brother and sister-in-law.

Wen Zhiyi didn't expect Lin Xuqiu's condition to be so bad. Gradually realizing the seriousness of the matter, his mood suddenly became a little heavy.

He raised his eyes and looked at his eldest son who was guarding Lin Xuqiu's bedside.

Wen Yanci ignored everyone who came to visit Xuqiu, as if he treated them as air, and his eyes never left Lin Xuqiu.

Wen Zhiyi slowly approached and took in the condition of his eldest son.

He found that his eldest son had lost his usual solemnity and neatness, his hair was a little messy, and his face looked a little tired.

What shocked him most was that his eldest son's eyes were red and swollen, obviously he had cried not long ago.

This made Wen Zhiyi feel even more depressed, a hint of worry appeared in his eyes, and even a sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.

Because Wen Yanci never uses tears to deal with problems no matter what happens, Wen Zhiyi has never seen him cry, and even sadness never appears on his face.

In Wen Zhiyi's impression, Wen Yanci always has a cold, distant and powerful attitude.

No one expected that such a strong-willed Wen Yanci would cry because of Lin Xuqiu's matter.

Wen Zhiyi sighed deeply in his heart. It seemed that Ye Rong not only hurt his daughter-in-law this time, but also hurt his eldest son's heart.

I'm afraid this mother-son relationship will be difficult to repair.

Wen Yanci's eyes were only on Lin Xuqiu.

When the time comes, ask the caregiver to ask them to leave so as not to disturb Xuqiu's rest.

Although the Lin family was filled with worry and didn't want to leave the ward at all, they still left quietly so that Xuqiu could have a good rest.

After Wen Jihuai left the ward, he wanted to wait outside for a while before leaving.

Wen Zhiyi ignored him and left with his assistant and bodyguards.

The ward returned to its coolness.

Wen Yanci lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Xuqiu, who seemed to be sleeping very uneasily, and reached out to stroke her fingers lightly.

The emotions that had been suppressed from yesterday until now poured out at this moment. There was a ferocious flash of a beast in his dark eyes, and a murderous aura suddenly arose around him. His other hand unconsciously clenched into a fist.

*

A few days later.

In a mansion in the city center.

Bai Muya sat at the bar at home, took a bottle of red wine, opened it, and drank directly from the bottle, not even bothering to take out the wine glass.

She was feeling a little irritable at the moment.

Since I heard from my godmother that Lin Xuqiu was so angry that she was in danger of premature labor and was being treated in the hospital for fetal preservation.

In the past few days, she has been repeatedly analyzing whether this matter will implicate herself, and is very worried that Wen Yanci will check her whereabouts after she left.

Although Ye Rong was the one who got angry, she was also present at the time and said a few words to support the situation. She then disappeared for quite some time.

Suddenly a cell phone rang.

Bai Muya, who felt guilty, was frightened, so she picked up her phone angrily.

It turned out to be an unfamiliar number.

After the call was connected, Bai Muya suppressed his irritability.

"Hello."

A very familiar male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yaya, you're so brave! You actually blocked my contact information and asked me to open a new phone number for you."

Bai Muya didn't expect this man to be so persistent. She had clearly explained everything to him. It was really annoying.

"Didn't I tell you I couldn't do it?"

"Why are you still calling me?"

Compared to Bai Muya's temper, the man seemed unconcerned.

From the outset, he hadn't expected much from the theft of trade secrets.

Because even if he really got their cooperation plan, with his hatred for Wen Yanci and the vigilance of the old fox Huang Hongshen, he would not be able to destroy this cooperation.

The reason why he kept urging Bai Muya was just to create a passive feeling of failure for her so that he could better control her as a chess piece in the future.

He leaned back on the sofa, looking lazy, holding a glass of red wine, in this luxurious box with neon lights and ambiguity, surrounded by friends who were indulging in sensual pleasures with him.

"Yaya, do you think that blocking me means the deal between us is over?"

"If you really think so, you are very naive."

"Since you haven't accomplished your goal, I have no choice but to expose your ugly deeds to the public."

Bai Muya hated being threatened the most in her life, and this man threatened her again and again, so she roared.

"No matter how much pressure or threats you put on me, I still say the same thing: I just can't do it."

"I've already sneaked into Wen Yanci's study, but even so, I still found nothing. What else do you want from me?"

"Not only did I fail to obtain the trade secrets, I also got myself into trouble and indirectly caused Wen Yanci's wife to have a premature birth. If Wen Yanci investigates this matter further, I will be finished."

Upon hearing this crucial information, the man's eyes lit up, his eyes filled with unconcealable excitement.
