Chapter 58 - 58: I Did Not Avoid

She had a backer like Huo Jiuxiao, but she did not make use of him. She was willing to be humiliated rather than use her husband. She could go through all sorts of trouble for her teacher’s friends. She could put herself down for cooperation and seek sincerity and respect.

Madam Yue suddenly understood what Lin Wanli had said at the airport.

What she wanted was mutual understanding, not mutual exploitation.

Old Madam Yue also believed what Lin Wanli said about helping the Lin Family’s employees when they first met. She did not spout nonsense and planned for a long time.

On the other side, it was a little past nine o’clock. Yan Qiu followed Lin Wanli’s instructions and used some necessary means to finally complete her mission. She brought the person Lin Wanli wanted to see back to Yujing Peak.

That was the evil servant of the Lin Family, Xu Menglan.

Xu Menglan’s grandson had benefited from the Ye family’s mother and daughter and was now studying at an elite kindergarten near the Lin Family’s home. However, she had completely forgotten who gave her a chance to live and live with the Lin Family for ten years without worrying about her livelihood when she was forced into a corner by her husband’s domestic abuse. When they arrived at the entrance of Yujing Peak, Yan Qiu told Xu Menglan to get off the car.

Xu Menglan looked at this residence that was even more luxurious than the Lin Family’s villa and felt fear.

The reason why she compromised and got into the car was because the other party had threatened her with a photo of her grandson. She did not seem to know that Yan Qiu was Lin Wanli’s assistant.

“Go in.” Yan Qiu said coldly.

Xu Menglan walked in front and quickly walked around the corridor toward the garden. At this moment, Lin Wanli was sitting in the garden drinking tea.

She was wearing a red gauze dress and sitting among the green plants. She was hot and swaying, like a lively rose. Moreover, at this moment, she no longer had the trashy look of a good-for-nothing young lady from before. The current Lin Wanli looked magnanimous, calm, and unfathomable.

“Miss, if you want me to come, just make a phone call. There’s really no need for such an invite.” Xu Menglan did not understand what Lin Wanli meant, so she probed.

“If I don’t do this, I’m afraid Aunt Meng won’t come.” Lin Wanli put down the teapot and the tea leaves. She also did not let the evil servant sit down. She just smiled and said, “Ten years have passed. I think my mother treats you well. I just want to know, since when have you been monitoring us and reporting our every move to the Ye Family?”

After Xu Menglan heard this, she panicked, but she still tried her best to remain calm, “I… I don’t quite understand what you mean.”

“So you want me to bring the police and personally find the surveillance cameras in the room?” Lin Wanli’s tone was still very calm, but the calmer Lin Wanli was, the more flustered she was.

Xu Menglan suddenly felt guilty and her hands were covered in sweat.

“Do you really think that I don’t know anything about what is going on between the mother and daughter of the Ye Family and my Father? Do you really think that I don’t know about Ye Zhenzhen’s thoughts of being the legitimate daughter and her relationship with Zhou Tingyang?” After Lin Wanli finished brewing tea, she stood up from her chair and slowly walked towards Xu Menglan, “You have a lover outside and the Ye Family’s money has also entered his pocket. I only need to do a little investigation and the evidence will be as thick as a book. Do you think you will be imprisoned for bigamy?”

“Your son works in the public sector, right?”

“Your grandson…”

Hearing Lin Wanli mention her son and grandson, it was as if Xu Menglan’s biggest weakness had been found. With a plop, she knelt down in front of Lin Wanli and grabbed Lin Wanli’s skirt, “Miss, it was my fault in the past. I shouldn’t have been greedy. I shouldn’t have repaid kindness with ingratitude.”

“Let you off? Who will let my mother off?” Lin Wanli broke free from Xu Menglan’s grip and patted her dress. It was as if something filthy had touched her, and she was extremely disgusted, “Alright, don’t put on a show in front of me. I don’t have time to watch you perform. I asked you to come here because I

have some questions for you. Just answer them truthfully.”

Xu Menglan knelt on the ground and wiped her tears, “Miss, if you have anything to say, feel free to ask.”

“Qin Huaijing’s reputation is ruined now. What method did he discuss with the mother and daughter of the Ye Family to get out of this predicament?” Lin Wanli returned to the tea table and sat down.

Xu Menglan struggled for a moment, but in the end, she still replied, “I don’t know the details. I really don’t know. I only know that Master wants to invite reporters to interview Madam. It seems that he wants Madam to take the blame for him.”

This was as expected of Qin Huaijing.

“I won’t expose your dirty deeds, and I won’t deal with your son and grandson, but the prerequisite is that you have to be of use to me in the future. As long as you do a good job, you can get the benefits of Ye Zhenzhen and her daughter, and you can continue to live in the Lin family. Otherwise…”

For some reason, Xu Menglan felt that the current Lin Wanli was much more terrifying than the Ye Family’s mother and daughter.

Because Lin Wanli seemed to know everything like the back of her hand and had grasped all the dirt on her. Compared to the Ye family’s mother and daughter’s bribery, Lin Wanli seemed to have weaved a secret net for her that she could not escape from.

“If Qin Huaijing wants to find a reporter, then let him. But Auntie Meng, you’re so smart. You must know how to get evidence that Qin Huaijing made my mother take the blame.”

After Xu Menglan heard this, she quickly waved her hand, “This way, Old

Master will suspect me very soon.”

“You lied to my mother for so many years, but my mother never suspected you, right?” Lin Wanli snorted and laughed. “You’ve been dealing with those three people for many years. You know their weaknesses better than anyone else. I believe you can complete the mission. Besides, I can coordinate with you. You should be quite good at this trick, so I’ll give them a taste of their own medicine.”

At this moment, Xu Menglan felt like she was a weed struggling to survive in a crevice because she could not offend either side. However, Lin Wanli had to see through her thoughts.

“Don’t think about running. If you run, your son… your grandson. I can’t guarantee what they will become.”

Lin Wanli seemed to have grabbed Xu Menglan by the throat, not giving her a chance to retreat.

“Miss, you’ve changed a lot.”

“Two years ago, I did not manage to avoid Ye Zhenzhen setting me up at the hotel.”Lin Wanli turned her head and looked at Xu Menglan. Her tone was lazy, “I had no choice but to marry someone and have a child.”

Xu Menglan looked at Lin Wanli in shock.

“Do you think I can let that family of three and the Zhou Family live in peace?”

Xu Menglan had made many guesses with the Ye Family’s mother and daughter. She had predicted that Lin Wanli would not be able to escape the trap that day. However, Lin Wanli’s actions after she returned dispelled everyone’s suspicions. Who would have thought…

She still lost her virginity.

Just as Xu Menglan was imagining how miserable Lin Wanli was, a tall figure walked through the corridor.

He actually did not intend to interfere with Lin Wanli’s bullying, until…

Huo Jiuxiao stopped in his tracks and slowed down for two seconds. Then, he turned around and walked towards the garden.

“?” Lin Wanli raised her head to look at the man, her face filled with surprise.

“Didn’t you ask me to stay with you?” Huo Jiuxiao said casually as if he was answering Lin Wanli’s question.

“Yan Qiu, bring a chair for Master.” Lin Wanli turned around and instructed.

Huo Jiuxiao took out his phone and started a game. It was just a normal game sound, but the person kneeling on the ground was already trembling in fear….
