Shen Zhiting stared at Lin Wanxing in disbelief. Only then did she belatedly realize that the "idiot" Lin Wanxing was talking about was herself.
Back when I was at the Shen family's house, I fell into their trap, which is why they were able to use my incriminating evidence against me.
Shen Zhiting never imagined that such an insignificant fool would cause her to end up like this.
She covered her face in pain and glared fiercely at Lin Wanxing.
"He would never be so kind as to come to the hospital specifically to see me," Shen Zhiting asked through gritted teeth. "What exactly do you want?"
"Threats are no longer effective for me. Shen Wen is about to be discharged from the hospital. You don't need to expose him. I'm finished anyway."
Shen Zhiting is now completely resigned to her fate. She has no regrets about what she has done. Her only regret is not killing Shen Wen directly, so that there would be no way to prove anything.
If I were to be even more ruthless, what would I have to be afraid of?
Shen Zhiting no longer needs to be afraid, since she will be kicked out of the Shen family sooner or later anyway.
Lin Wanxing calmly watched her frantic state. She remembered how the woman had mocked her in front of so many people, saying she needed to go to the hospital, but in the end, she was the one who ended up in the hospital first.
In contrast to Shen Zhiting's shouting, Lin Wanxing remained unusually calm.
This stands in stark contrast to everything that happened in the Shen family's Yunhai Hall.
Lin Wanxing came this time with something for Shen Zhiting to do. "Don't worry, even though Shen Wen has been discharged from the hospital, you won't expose him."
Shen Zhiting looked unconvinced and snorted coldly, "It seems you still don't quite understand the internal relationships within the Shen family. Shen Wenhe's third branch will definitely not let me off easily."
"They're too busy cherishing such a good opportunity. Being able to kick me out of the Shen family means one less threat."
Shen Zhiting believed that being kicked out was a foregone conclusion, so she had given up on herself.
Looking at Shen Zhiting, Lin Wanxing suddenly felt that this person was both hateful and pathetic. Growing up in a place like the Shen family, anyone would be mentally unstable.
Fortunately, my second brother withdrew in time; he's different from them.
Lin Wanxing said, "Shen Wen hasn't woken up yet, so you don't need to worry too much."
Shen Zhiting couldn't help but sneer, "He won't wake up for now, but he will eventually wake up, and I'll still be kicked out of the Shen family anyway."
Shen Zhiting's mind suddenly started working again; perhaps when people are at their wits' end, their minds will briefly clear.
"I will help you with this, and I promise this matter will not be exposed."
Shen Zhiting found Lin Wanxing laughable. What could Lin Wanxing possibly do? He was just spouting nonsense.
Shen Zhiting took a deep breath and scoffed, "You, Lin Wanxing?"
"What guarantees do you have? Only a fool would believe you."
Lin Wanxing's gaze lingered on Shen Zhiting's legs. He smiled so sweetly, and in a soft voice, he advised Shen Zhiting, "You'd better watch what you say. Don't break your leg, or maybe your hand one day."
"You..." Shen Zhiting was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Lin Wanxing looked at Shen Zhiting with an innocent expression, her pink lips slightly parted, "What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean'? If you continue to disrespect me, I'll tell my second brother."
"You have no choice now. Believe me, this is your only way out. It's a desperate gamble. You have no way out anyway."
Shen Zhiting knew that Lin Wanxing could help her, but there were definitely conditions involved, so let's not keep it a secret for now.
Shen Zhiting thought about it seriously. She really had no way out. No matter what, she had to take a gamble. Shen Zhiting slowly closed her eyes, and then, after making up her mind, asked, "What are your conditions?"
"I heard that you and Chen Xueping went to the same high school, so I want you to do something for me."
Lin Wanxing took an envelope from his coat pocket. "Go and do these things."
Shen Zhiting looked at Lin Wanxing with some suspicion. She took the envelope and emptied its contents.
With a "whoosh," a bunch of photos appeared.
The photo showed a girl in a school uniform, and Shen Zhiting immediately understood.
"I see."
Lin Wanxing took a deep breath and said, "It's best to get everything sorted out before the 12th."
The 12th was Chen Xueping's wedding day. Shen Zhiting rolled her eyes; she understood everything now.
Lin Wanxing suddenly gave her a sweet smile, "Xiaoting, you should get some rest, I won't bother you anymore."
Shen Zhiting remained silent, her head bowed as she intently examined the photos.
Chen Xueping really did a lot of bad things back then, and Shen Zhiting had heard about it.
Taihong High School went to great lengths to cover up that incident back then, and the Chen family also spent a lot of money to smooth things over.
After seeing Lin Wanxing come out of the ward, Zheng Hu's worry gradually subsided. He looked Lin Wanxing up and down and asked, "Young Master, are you alright?"
Lin Wanxing was very puzzled. "What could possibly happen to me? Xiaoting has changed recently. She didn't do anything to me, so don't worry."
Zheng Hu breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Lin Wanxing was alright, he could go back and report with peace of mind.
Lin Wanxing sat in the car, his head resting against the window, staring blankly out the window.
He remembered Shen Zhiting's words that she would be kicked out sooner or later, and couldn't help but think of himself.
I should be the same; I'll leave sooner or later.
My second brother would never like me.
Zheng Hu noticed something was wrong with him; he had been sullen ever since he saw Shen Zhiting. "Young Master, are you in a bad mood?"
"Zheng Hu, what kind of person do you think my second brother likes?"
"She must be both beautiful and intelligent, and I happen to lack both of those qualities."
Zheng Hu secretly observed Lin Wanxing through the endoscope. "The gentleman has always preferred to be alone. He doesn't have anyone he likes."
Shen Huai'an has an eccentric temper, and few people can get along with him.
Shen Huai'an dislikes everyone, including himself.
Lin Wanxing sighed, feeling that his hopes were truly slim.
He scratched his hair in frustration, making it suddenly a mess. He sat in the car for a long time before finally getting home.
He tugged at his small satchel, and before Zheng Hu could open the car door for him, he had already rushed out.
Shen Huai'an was in his study, quietly organizing his paintings. His study was always so quiet.
"Second brother, are you inside?" Lin Wanxing went straight to the study on the second floor after getting out of the car. He really wanted to ask Shen Huai'an if he had someone he liked.
He knocked on the door from the outside, and Shen Huai'an hurriedly hid the drawing of the boy's nude body.
Because that painting was entirely based on imagination, the boy in the painting was so charming and alluring, completely different from the silly children in reality.
Shen Huai'an was afraid of frightening him, so he put the painting away immediately.
