hospital.
Lin Tianyu is staying in the intensive care unit. His condition has been grim recently and his condition has worsened.
Precisely because of this, he summoned his subordinates more frequently. Whenever he was awake, he would ask them to come over, assign tasks, and revise his will.
Li Yuebai fulfilled his duties as an attorney and visited Lin Tianyu every day.
Every time I see Lin Tianyu, I can't help but feel a chill in my heart.
Lin Xie is only eighteen years old, and Lin Tianyu is no more than forty or fifty, but his hair is already completely white, and his facial features are extremely deep, with an aquiline nose, high cheekbones, and sharp brows. His eyes are not only sharp, but also have a hint of madness, making people feel that he will make all kinds of crazy decisions at any time, even blowing up the Capitol Building immediately is very likely.
According to the description in the information, Lin Tianyu has a cold nature. He has been in the underworld and the white world for so many years that his heart is as hard as stone. He is completely different from those wealthy businessmen who protect their wives and children. Lin Tianyu has always been selfless in doing things. When he is faced with a decision, he will give up his wife and children at any time.
There are also rumors that Lin Tianyu not only has a chaotic private life, but also has affairs with both men and women...
No wonder she has such an unreliable son like Lin Xie.
Li Yuebai restrained himself and did not observe Lin Tianyu too much. He just sat not far from Lin Tianyu's bed dutifully, holding the notebook with his slender fingers and listening to the customer's requests with a professional expression.
Lin Tianyu modified his will and no longer listed Lin Xie as the sole heir to his estate, but instead included several other illegitimate children.
Li Yuebai couldn't help but look at the names he had written a few more times, and finally his eyes stopped on one of the names - Lin Dong.
Lin Dong is several years older than Lin Xie. He is the product of Lin Tianyu's early years of debauchery and a night of pleasure with a prostitute. Lin Tianyu had no intention of marrying that woman, but the child was born by accident.
In recent years, Lin Dong has created various opportunities to return to Lin Tianyu's side. He is very scheming, knows how to survive, and listens to Lin Tianyu very much. Recently, he is quite favored by Lin Tianyu. With the support of the Lin Group, he has established a firm foothold in the business world.
Just like what is written in those novels, the entire Lin family is a mess, complicated and tragic.
"Host, be careful of Lin Dong." The system reminded: "He is a dangerous person."
Lin Dong had a miserable life, and he had developed a ruthless character and used every possible means in his struggle for survival since childhood. He believed that Lin Xie had taken away everything he deserved, and naturally hated Lin Xie.
"I know." Li Yuebai said secretly: "However, the person Lin Dong has to deal with is only Lin Xie. What does it have to do with me?"
"Host, are you having a bad temper?" The system said seriously, "If Lin Xie had been murdered by Lin Dong before he fell in love with you, you would not have been able to complete your mission."
"I'm not suffering from Stockholm syndrome. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to save him?" Li Yuebai said, "Lin Xie... just die."
"…But the mission…"
"Forget it, I'm just kidding." Li Yuebai looked away.
After writing his latest will, Li Yuebai realized that the air around him had become quiet.
Lin Tianyu stared at Li Yuebai with his deep and terrifying eyes, and finally revealed a sneer.
"Lawyer Wang." Lin Tianyu coughed a few times, then asked in a hoarse voice, "Have you had any contact with my son recently?"
When Li Yuebai heard him asking about Lin Xie, he felt something was wrong.
There were a few cold mechanical clicks, and Lin Tianyu's men, who had been standing in a row at the door of the ward, now all took out their pistols, loaded them, and aimed at Li Yuebai.
"Lawyer Wang, stop trying to hide it." The secretary stepped forward and said sharply, "Nothing can be hidden from President Lin. Since the meeting a few days ago, you have been communicating closely with the eldest son privately, not to mention your disappearance a few days ago... We have reason to suspect that you are still working for the eldest son until now."
"..." Li Yuebai didn't know how to refute for a moment.
The secretary's speech was righteous, stern, and well-reasoned, and everyone who heard it believed it.
It is true that he and Lin Xie have had an unclear relationship since he traveled through time. Now Lin Tianyu is fully on guard against Lin Xie, and of course he has also listed himself as a key suspect.
But no matter how suspicious it is, we cannot admit it casually.
"You misunderstood." Li Yuebai said calmly: "I am a lawyer. The only thing I do is to complete the client's entrustment. Now my client is you, and it has nothing to do with others."
Lin Tianyu's pair of light brown eyes were still staring at Li Yuebai, but there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. Li Yuebai also saw another meaning in his eyes: it is better to kill by mistake than to let him go.
"Host, why don't you take action immediately?" The system was a little nervous: "Your life is being threatened, it is recommended that you hurry up..."
"No need." Li Yuebai said, "He won't kill me now."
Sure enough, Lin Tianyu narrowed his eyes and seemed to have a new idea.
He waved his hand, directed his men, and made a video call to Lin Xie.
The camera was, of course, aimed at Li Yuebai.
When Lin Xie received the call, he was obviously stunned.
However, when he saw Li Yuebai being pointed at by countless guns, he quickly realized that his father suspected that Li Yuebai was his man.
When Lin Xie saw Wang Hanzhi, the anger in his heart suddenly surged up.
Wang Hanzhi...
Even though he had been unable to do anything to Wang Hanzhi time and time again, he now had another chance, so how could he let it go?
Since my father already suspects Wang Hanzhi, why not deepen this suspicion?
So, Lin Xie immediately pretended to be extremely surprised and distressed, and this expression quickly flashed by, and he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Father, who is he? He is just an insignificant person, why bother..."
I have to say that Lin Xie's acting skills are really superb. For a moment, Li Yuebai thought he really cared about her.
One of Lin Tianyu's men sneered, pulled out a sharp knife, and slashed Li Yuebai's cheek with the tip of the knife.
"...Father!" Lin Xie's face changed drastically, and even his voice changed. "If you have anything to say... we can discuss it."
Lin Tianyu narrowed his eyes, seeming to not understand his eldest son's erratic attitude.
"Xie'er, do you care about this person or not?" Lin Tianyu sneered, "If you care, why do you want to place him next to me? Aren't you afraid that I will accidentally kill him?"
"No, no..." Lin Xie was a little flustered for a moment.
"If it's unimportant, I'll send someone to throw him into the Yangzi River tomorrow." Lin Tianyu shook his head.
Lin Xie was silent for a while, and seemed to have finally made a difficult decision.
"Father, please let him go." Lin Xie whispered, "Any price is fine."
If it weren't for the physical factors, Lin Tianyu would probably have laughed out loud at this moment.
He had already seen from Lin Xie's eyes that the relationship between Lin Xie and Wang Hanzhi was extremely ambiguous and complicated.
"Xie'er, as long as you hand over the power in your hands obediently, your father will certainly not make things difficult for you." Lin Tianyu coughed a few times and changed his tone to a hypocritical and kind one: "As for when I will let him go, it depends on your performance."
As he said this, Lin Tianyu hooked his finger.
The subordinate understood and immediately pointed the gun at the back of Li Yuebai's head, forcing him to take a step forward.
Lin Tianyu stretched out his eagle-claw-like fingers from the sickbed and pinched Li Yue's cheek with interest.
In this shot, Lin Xie can be seen clearly.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Tianyu ordered someone to hang up the video call.
"..." Li Yuebai turned his head away coldly, but failed to avoid Lin Tianyu's fingers. His cheeks were pinched so hard that it felt hot and painful. He cursed countless times in his heart.
He was already having trouble keeping up with the pace at which the plot was taking turns.
In just a moment, countless chances were exchanged between the father and son.
Lin Xie pretended to be very concerned about Wang Hanzhi and couldn't let him go, but in fact he was giving his father anesthesia to make his father think that he had a hostage in hand and was sure of victory, so he became complacent.
Lin Tianyu pretended to have some intentions towards Wang Hanzhi, but in fact he was further provoking Lin Xie.
Lin Tianyu could see that Lin Xie's nervousness towards Wang Hanzhi was partly pretended, but also partly genuine.
Perhaps with a little more stimulation, this bit of sincerity will expand and become so real that it cannot be more real, and the fake hostage will become a real hostage.
"Host, what should we do next?" The system didn't understand either.
"Wait a minute, my brain is about to short-circuit." Li Yuebai sighed.
As soon as the situation changed, he involuntarily became a cannon fodder in the fight between father and son. This position was very dangerous, and the best thing to do was to not act rashly.
As for how the plot will develop next, it depends on Lin Xie.
Lin Xie must be feeling very relaxed at this moment.
After hanging up the video call, Lin Xie immediately put away his pretended anxious expression.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He shrugged his shoulders, stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Outside the window, half of the city was in sight.
He didn't know whether his performance could fool his father, but given his father's suspicious character, he must have kept Wang Hanzhi under strict surveillance.
When Lin Xie thought of Wang Hanzhi's slightly pale face just captured by the camera, he felt a sense of control over everything.
The haze that had been lingering in my heart for many days seemed to dissipate for a moment.
However, before he could feel happy for long, Lin Xie felt a strange uneasiness again.
What did his father mean by his ambiguous behavior towards Wang Hanzhi?
Could it be that he really has some improper thoughts about Wang Hanzhi?
Impossible, he was just trying to scare himself. He knew his father's methods very well.
But Wang Hanzhi...if he were in his father's position, would he really do nothing?
It feels like there is a thorn buried in my heart, a thorn that grows infinitely.
Lin Xie's expression changed. He left the French window, walked to the bar and poured himself a glass of wine.
He was feeling irritated, and his hand holding the wine glass was unsteady, so a few drops of wine spilled onto the carpet.
The carpet was pure white, with a few drops of bright red wine on it. It looked exactly like... fair skin with red marks left by my own sucking and biting.
Lin Xie took out the video recording like a possessed person and played it again, his eyes involuntarily focused on Wang Hanzhi's face.
It’s still such a beautiful face, making people just want to bite it gently.
