(607)
Ye Wenyu regained her freedom and immediately shrank back as fast as lightning until her back hit the cold wall, leaving her nowhere to retreat. She then looked up and frantically searched her surroundings, only to realize that she was in a hospital.
In other words, after witnessing Lin Tingyue jump off the building in front of her, Ye Wenyu couldn't handle the shock and fainted. Then someone took her to the hospital. Was that person Lin Tingfeng?!
Thinking of this, Ye Wenyu was stunned. Like an ostrich, she buried her head in her arms, as if Lin Tingfeng didn't exist if she couldn't see him.
The death of my mother, the death of Cai Wenchuan, the death of Jiang Zhiming, and the deaths of Lin Tingxuan and Lin Tingyue—all these people are dead. The world suddenly feels so vast and desolate.
For her, life was a dream, a nightmare filled with fear and death! Perhaps, only by committing suicide like Lin Tingyue could she escape this nightmare!
"Xiaoyu—" Lin Tingfeng saw that Ye Wenyu seemed to have calmed down, so he stepped forward and gently called her name.
He brought flowers; bright lilies and roses were placed on the bedside table, quietly exuding their fragrance. The sunlight was just right, shining brightly into the ward, and all around was quiet.
But in Ye Wenyu's eyes, these beautiful flowers, like the flowers on the grave, belong to her mother, Cai Wenchuan, Jiang Zhiming, Lin Tingyue, and Lin Tingxuan!
"Don't come any closer!" Ye Wenyu stretched out her hand again with lightning speed, her big, purple eyes looking at Lin Tingfeng in terror.
He was like a cannibalistic monster, and fear, like the omnipresent air, enveloped her tightly. She hated her own weakness; in front of Lin Tingfeng, she was powerless except to hate and hide.
She would soon become fish on his chopping board, or rather, she had always been fish on his chopping board! He could easily kill her as easily as crushing an ant.
The air seemed to freeze, and Ye Wenyu's body trembled violently.
The faces of her mother, Cai Wenchuan, Jiang Zhiming, Lin Tingxuan, and Lin Tingyue swirled rapidly in her mind, intertwining into a jumbled mess.
She felt a string taut deep within her heart, shining brightly in the absolute darkness. Soon, that string snapped.
When that string snapped, she either went mad or died.
Lin Tingfeng smiled slightly and explained to her in a gentle, velvety tone, "I heard that someone fainted on the top floor of the Lin Group building, and I was worried it was you. Sure enough, that's why I brought you to the hospital."
So that's how it is. Ye Wenyu thought to herself that the reason she fainted was because she witnessed Lin Tingyue, in despair, jumping off the building in front of her. In other words, when she fainted, Lin Tingyue was lying on the ground floor covered in blood. As her older brother, Lin Tingfeng did not care at all about his sister who had already jumped to her death, but instead sent her, who was not related to him, to the hospital.
Ye Wenyu dared not look at Lin Tingfeng, and asked in a trembling voice, "Lin Tingyue, Lin Tingyue is dead?"
She hugged herself tightly, but still couldn't stop trembling. The entire snow-white ward felt like a terrifying hell.
Lin Tingfeng nodded solemnly and said slowly to her, "Yes, I'm also very sad because I couldn't think straight for a moment." But his tone didn't seem sad at all.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wenyu suddenly raised his head and glared angrily at Lin Tingfeng. He said he was sad, but his expression showed no sadness at all. On the contrary, his eyes were filled with smugness.
Because he won the Lin family's inheritance battle!
Ye Wenyu suddenly stood up, smoke billowing from her head and fire blazing in her eyes, about to run out of the ward. Lin Tingfeng quickly reached out his hand and asked her worriedly, "Where are you going?"
She had no family, no home, no friends. Where could she go? In this world, he had become her only family. No matter what, having watched her leave him twice, he couldn't let it happen a third time!
He went to great lengths and took risks just to keep her by his side, didn't he?
Therefore, Lin Tingfeng composed himself and said to Ye Wenyu with utmost sincerity, "Xiaoyu, I was wrong before and hurt you, but now, everything is over. Lin Tingyue has passed away, her mother has been admitted to a mental hospital, the Lin Group now belongs to me alone, I have won, my ex-wife has also been defeated by me and gone to a foreign country. In short, no one will make things difficult for you or hurt you anymore. We will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get our marriage certificate tomorrow. I want you to be my wife, the happiest woman in the world!" As he said this, Lin Tingfeng's eyes shone like stars, and his face radiated an extraordinary light.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wenyu trembled. She turned around abruptly, her sharp, piercing gaze fixed on Lin Tingfeng.
Life has become like this, completely unrecognizable. His relatives and friends are either dead or gone, yet he still foolishly believes that she will be with him again. In his mind, how foolish she must be!
For some reason, facing Ye Wenyu's aggressive gaze, Lin Tingfeng suddenly felt uneasy, and he dared not meet her clear, pure eyes.
Ye Wenyu mustered her courage and asked in a trembling voice, "Lin Tingfeng, I'm asking you a question, and you must answer me honestly."
A deathly silence filled the surroundings.
"Okay, I'll speak frankly and without reservation."
"Did you hire someone to kill my mother?!"
Like a thunderclap, Lin Tingfeng fell silent. But since lying could guarantee the happiness of both of them, he smiled slightly and said gently to Ye Wenyu, "What are you thinking? How could I? I know she is your only family."
Ye Wenyu felt a sense of unease. She wondered if she had wronged him. Should she believe him? She asked incredulously, "Then what about Cai Wenchuan, Jiang Zhiming, Lin Tingxuan, and Lin Tingyue? Are their deaths related to you?!"
Lin Tingfeng gave a cold laugh and immediately said calmly, "How could that be? A murderer must pay with his life. Why would I kill someone when I'm perfectly fine? You're overthinking it. Xiaoyu, they must have come to you to sow discord and make you think I'm the worst person in the world."
Ye Wenyu was stunned. In front of Lin Tingfeng, she, or rather, she and they, seemed to be made of crystal glass. Lin Tingfeng knew everything she and they were thinking and doing.
Lin Tingfeng smiled ironically and slowly said, "But in fact, you misunderstood. They were just losers. Several of them ganged up on me. First, they drove a wedge between you and me, and then they formed an alliance to fight me for the Lin family's assets. But now, I've weathered the most difficult and darkest time. I've defeated them all. They all died because they couldn't accept the truth of their defeat. My sister committed suicide, and Lin Tingxuan, Cai Wenchuan, and Jiang Zhiming either committed suicide or died in accidents. Do you understand?"
