Chapter 215: Chapter 211 Discord

"This..."

Xia Ling wanted to say something, but for a moment, she didn’t know where to start.

Han Min, however, relentlessly pressed on, "Director Xia, you’re quite a figure in our circles, yet you know that Long Chen is already engaged and you still pursue him. Don’t you think such behavior is improper?"

"Enough."

Long Chen slammed the table and stood up angrily, "What do you mean? Are you trying to create discord?"

"Long Chen, it’s not that I want to say this, but I just can’t stand to watch anymore. Look at you, having Yuechan isn’t enough, you also found Zhao Churan, and Zhao Churan is one thing, but now you’re after Director Xia too. How can a man be so fickle? Will there be other women joining this family in the future? I suspect you bought this huge villa in anticipation of that, right?"

"You’re right about all of it, but it seems to be none of your business," Long Chen replied coldly. "When I fell into that deep valley, you trampled all over me. I never owed you anything, and now, you have no say over what I do."

"How can you say that you never owed me anything when you freeloaded at our house for so long?" Han Min glared at Long Chen.

"The issue of the eighty million, are you going to act like you’ve never mentioned it?"

Long Chen sneered.

"That... That’s not the same, is it? I will naturally pay you back the eighty million—it’s a completely different matter."

Han Min’s tone was noticeably weaker.

"Then pay me back now."

Long Chen said.

"I don’t want to talk to you, Yuechan, come with me."

Han Min pulled Li Yuechan and went upstairs.

"Xia Ling, don’t mind her or take what she said to heart."

Long Chen comforted Xia Ling.

Xia Ling said with a bitter smile, "I know, it just feels a bit unpleasant."

"Sister Xia, my mother is just like that. She doesn’t understand brother-in-law and doesn’t get your perspective, so of course there will be some conflicts. But don’t worry, this will definitely not affect your relationship with brother-in-law. Things between you two should proceed as they always have."

Li Yuexin said in a hurry.

She was also worried that her mother’s words might cause a rift between Xia Ling and Long Chen.

Xia Ling was the director of Dragon Doctor, controlling many lifelines of the company.

If anything went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Of course, this was just Li Yuexin’s worry.

In actuality, Xia Ling would never betray Long Chen, no matter what.

...

Upstairs, Han Min was persuading Li Yuechan.

"Yuechan, be honest with me, why are you with Long Chen? Looking at his behavior now, he is becoming bolder and bolder, he doesn’t seem to take you into consideration at all.

Imagine if he got involved with Zhao Churan because of a misunderstanding in your relationship, leading him to be with Zhao Churan, then perhaps there could be an excuse.

But now, he shamelessly brings Xia Ling home, what’s the reason for that? Also, he made Xia Ling take charge of Dragon Doctor instead of thinking of letting you or Zhao Churan take the helm, isn’t that favoritism?"

Han Min spoke earnestly.

"Mom, that’s enough, it’s too complicated, you don’t need to get involved, just say less,"

Li Yuechan said with some irritation.

"It’s not that I want to say this, but I can’t keep quiet, I just can’t bear to watch it. Look at yourself, beautiful as the flower of the moon, why do you cling and not leave? What kind of man can’t you find?"

Han Min stared at Li Yuechan.

"There may be many outstanding men in the world, but I only love Long Chen. That’s my destiny, no matter what, as long as Long Chen still loves me, I will not do anything to betray him," Li Yuechan said seriously.

Although somewhat irritated, Li Yuechan was very determined in her heart, and Han Min’s words did not sway her one bit.

Han Min saw the situation, thought carefully, and whispered, "Your biological father has actually a very formidable power in the Imperial City. If you want, you could return to his side at any time, take his place in the future, inherit everything he owns, and rise to the top, unparalleled. Wouldn’t that be nice?

Why must you spend a lifetime with Long Chen, sharing love with others? I don’t think it’s worth it."

"Who is he?"

Li Yuechan stared at Han Min.

Han Min hesitated, but still didn’t dare to say.

Because she didn’t have that man’s permission, she really couldn’t reveal it.

"Yuechan, in any case, when it’s time for you to know, we’ll naturally tell you. Right now, you just need to know that your dad has the ability to ensure you don’t have to struggle your whole life, and you could still become one of those at the top of Great Xia’s pyramid," Han Min said seriously.

"If you’re not going to speak, then that’s fine. Mom, you should rest well. The kind of talk you had downstairs, you can’t say that again, otherwise, if Long Chen really gets angry and decides to send you away, Li Yuexin and I won’t be able to help you. I hope you’ll really think about it.

Sometimes it’s not that I don’t want to help you; it’s just that I can’t find any reason to help you. In other words, I also hope you won’t try to drive a wedge in our relationships, and let us get along in harmony."

After Li Yuechan spoke, she turned and left the room.

Han Min, seeing her attempt at manipulation had failed, trembled with rage.

After much thought, Han Min could only call Chu Ling, Li Yuechan’s biological father.

"What is it, calling so late?" Chu Ling’s voice was icy.

After biting her lip, Han Min said in a low voice, "I’ve tried everything, but still couldn’t get Yuechan to leave Long Chen, and I can’t kill Long Chen either. What do you think should be done now?"

"Intelligence is a good thing that you should possess," said Chu Ling indifferently. "You don’t need to speak so openly about everything. You could devise a plan to subtly create conflicts between them; for instance, let Yuechan discover that Long Chen favors another woman, let Long Chen mistakenly believe Yuechan is embezzling company assets or make Long Chen suspect Yuechan is being intimate with another man.

Alone, each of these may seem trivial, but accumulate enough of them, and they will lead to Long Chen’s disappointment in Yuechan, or Yuechan’s disappointment in Long Chen. When that time comes, we will fan the flames, and they will naturally separate.

Of course, if that still doesn’t work, I will find a way to take Yuechan away by force. First, you try your best. I want Yuechan to leave voluntarily, and if you succeed, I will reward you."

Beep beep beep.

The call was abruptly ended by Chu Ling.

Clenching her phone, Han Min was lost in thought.

Downstairs, Li Yuechan was apologizing to Xia Ling, clarifying many things.

Xia Ling’s face lit up with joy, and she chatted openly and sincerely with Li Yuechan and Zhao Churan.

After eleven o’clock, the alcohol was finished.

Xia Ling stood up, indicating she wanted to go home.

"Sister Xia, it’s so late. Why don’t you stay over and not go back?" Li Yuechan said with a smile, holding her back.

"Yeah, it’s not like we don’t have a place for you to sleep. Don’t go back," Zhao Churan also said.

"It’s not possible. I have an important document at home that I need to take to the company for a meeting early tomorrow," said Xia Ling with a wry smile.

"Then let Long Chen take you home. He hasn’t been drinking. Long Chen, take Sister Xia home, okay? You don’t need to come back; just take good care of her," said Li Yuechan.

"Okay, then," Long Chen immediately stood up.

"I’d rather catch a taxi back by myself," Xia Ling hastily said.

"How can that be okay? Sister Xia, rest assured, we won’t be jealous, oh. Let Long Chen take you. Long Chen, what are you waiting for? Help Sister Xia, and look after her well."
