Chapter 557: 520 you heard right, I’m threatening you (2 more)

Hmph, Tan Lixin?

Just now, in front of so many people, she kept calling him "husband" as if they were really married, and it would make anyone unaware of the truth think that they were a deeply loving couple.

He always knew that Lin Menmen was no simple woman.

Before this, she would at least pretend around him, but now, she wouldn’t even bother to put on an act.

So, they were openly hostile now, huh?

It was better this way; otherwise, he didn’t want to keep dragging things out awkwardly.

After all, Tan Rongrong’s college entrance exams were just a few months away, and his plan was to wait until her exams were over and she was off to college. Then, he would return to Beijing with Lin Jiaojiao and deal with their complicated entanglement once and for all.

"Since you’re not pretending anymore, there’s no one around; say what you want to say directly."

"What can I do? For years, my only wish has been for my husband to come home and not mess around with some wild woman outside. It’s that simple; I don’t have any other excessive demands."

"But even with such a simple request, my husband can’t manage to do it."

"Lin Menmen, you’re the one who has a marital arrangement with Lin Jiaojiao, and the Lin Family’s heiress is also Lin Jiaojiao. Jiaojiao doesn’t hold it against you, you stole her parents from her, you took the identity of the Lin Family’s heiress, and yet you want me to come home? Don’t be so outrageous."

"Heh, is it outrageous for me to want my husband to come home?" Lin Menmen’s eyes sparkled with mirth, something that would have made her cry out of laughter in the past.

But now, as long as she could manage not to love, she had nothing to fear.

"Lin Menmen, you are avoiding the main issue," Tan Lixin pointed out sternly.

"So, the one my husband truly loves is still that little vixen outside, right? While our daughter lies inside between life and death, you’re here persistently trying to legitimate Lin Jiaojiao’s status? Aren’t you afraid that Rongrong will find out and be heartbroken?"

"..."

He had always wanted to legitimate Jiaojiao’s status and had thought about it for many years.

However, he did need to be considerate of Rongrong, or he truly would become the kind of ungrateful scum he detested.

Seeing his silence, Lin Menmen’s heart felt a bit more relieved.

She walked over, leaned against Tan Lixin, and rested her head on his shoulder. Just as Tan Lixin started to react, Lin Menmen sternly warned, "If you dare to throw me out again, then get ready to collect your darling daughter’s body."

"..."

Tan Lixin froze, his face losing color with visible speed.

His body stiffened, and for a moment, he felt as if all sensation had left him.

"You..."

"Tan Lixin!" Just then, Lin Jiaojiao’s sorrowful cry came from behind them.

Turning around, Tan Lixin saw the food Lin Jiaojiao had brought scattered on the ground, and she had already turned and run away.

"..."

Was it his imagination?

Had Jiaojiao really come by?

To bring him something?

Was it reality, or was he dreaming?

"Jiaojiao—"

Tan Lixin saw the steaming food and the air was still filled with the scent of Lin Jiaojiao’s presence, not perfume but her unique scent that only he could recognize in the whole world.

"Husband, it’s time to choose between two: Lin Jiaojiao or Tan Rongrong? If you leave today, I swear, Lin Jiaojiao and I will never stop until one of us is dead. What’s happening to Rongrong today will happen to Lin Jiaojiao tomorrow. I mean what I say... Do you want to test me?"

"What did you say?" Tan Lixin could hardly believe it. Was Lin Menmen threatening him?

"You didn’t hear wrong, I am threatening you."

"..."

"Come home, make up for everything you owed me, and I’ll find a way to save Rongrong. I’ll also forgive Lin Jiaojiao for going back on her word that year. They both can be well."

"But if you don’t come home, then let me tell you straight, even if you succeed in getting a kidney transplant for Rongrong, if she falls into my hands, sooner or later her life will be a living hell. And as for Lin Jiaojiao, I’ll make sure she ends up just like Rongrong."

"However, what I want from Lin Jiaojiao might not just be a kidney."

"What exactly have you done?" Tan Lixin was furious, he could never have expected that before the day he could confront Lin Menmen, this damned woman had the audacity to turn against him first.

As Tan Lixin spoke, he also seized Lin Menmen by the neck.

Lin Menmen grabbed his wrist with her hand and smiled, like a deadly poppy flower.

She didn’t seem the least bit worried that Tan Lixin would strangle her, and as his fingers gradually tightened, her face, still fairly comely, also started to change color as her breathing became more difficult.

"Tan Lixin, strangle me, strangle me; that way, we all get our release, heh, hahaha..."

Her laughter wasn’t loud, but it was wild, a kind of wildness Tan Lixin had never seen before.

At that moment, for some reason, Tan Lixin didn’t dare to increase his strength and actually strangle Lin Menmen. He really wanted to do it, but who knew what Lin Menmen had done to Rongrong.

He had to figure out everything, one by one.

And Jiaojiao, Lin Menmen actually dared to tell him to choose between the two; she claimed she had ways to make Jiaojiao’s life a living hell. How could a woman have such arrogance and confidence?

Tan Lixin was reluctant to believe that a woman could have so much power.

But as it turned out, Rongrong was indeed lying in there, leaving him no choice but to believe.

What should he do?

How should he choose?

"Tan Lixin, what are you doing? Do you want to strangle her?" Lin Wenming, who had arrived at the hospital much later, saw Tan Lixin gripping Lin Menmen’s neck as soon as he came in. He rushed over and shielded Lin Menmen.

Tan Lixin released Lin Menmen.

Just as he was about to turn around and chase after Lin Jiaojiao, Lin Wenming grabbed him, "Where are you going? Your wife and daughter are both here, and with Rongrong in such a state, are you still looking for that slut Lin Jiaojiao, is that it?"

Tan Lixin really wanted to give Lin Wenming a slap in the face. Who talks about their own sister that way?

And Jiaojiao?

She must have been worried about him, as he hadn’t called her in such a long time.

She had been waiting all this time, and when she couldn’t wait any longer, that’s why she had come to find him with food.

However, when he turned around, he found that the food that had been on the floor was gone.

Hm?

Had the cleaning staff come by just now?

Why did he have no recollection of it?

What exactly was going on?

Why was his head feeling so muddled?

The next second, Tan Lixin lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground.

"Hey, Tan Lixin, stop playing dead," Lin Wenming kicked Tan Lixin’s body.

Seeing this, Lin Menmen didn’t stop him; she said to Lin Wenming, "Big brother, if you are done venting, please help me get him to the car. He’s had too much excitement tonight; I’ll take him home to rest. I’ll have someone from the family come over to watch over Rongrong."

"Alright, go ahead, I’ll help him."
