Free Web NovelChapter 108: Chapter 108: You Want to Murder Your Own Husband?
"Answer it. We need to find out where she is now."
Jiang Xinghai had already decided to intervene in Su Yanyun’s affairs.
The reason was very simple.
The three formulas in Su Yanyun’s possession—the Youthful Appearance Technique, the Longevity Pill, and the Repair Cream—all originated from his sect, Kunlun.
Even the five hundred million in her hands had been given to her by his Eldest Senior Sister, Chu Lingyun.
By helping Su Yanyun, he was also helping his Eldest Senior Sister.
The only thing he still didn’t understand was the relationship between his Eldest Senior Sister, Chu Lingyun, and Su Yanyun.
"Yanyun, answer it. Do as Xinghai says."
Seeing that Su Yanyun was still hesitating, Shen Lingxue immediately prompted her.
Su Yanyun nodded, took a deep breath, and answered the call. "Cousin, I want to talk to you in person. Where are you?"
"Yanyun, I’m right at your parents’ doorstep. Should I tell your parents what kind of woman you really are? Tsk, this is such a tough decision," Su Yanmei said preemptively, her laughter sickening.
Su Yanyun gasped. Su Yanmei was actually at her parents’ house!
"So, there’s no need for us to meet. Besides, I’ve already told you everything I needed to. I’ve given you time to make your decision, and now I’m just giving you a little reminder," Su Yanmei said, certain that Su Yanyun would give in.
Because she and Su Yanyun had grown up together, no one understood her better! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"That’s all for now. You have twenty hours left." Su Yanmei said this as she moved to hang up.
"Wait, I have more to say."
Su Yanyun said hurriedly, "I promise I’ll give you an answer before noon tomorrow. Before then, you absolutely cannot go to my parents’ house."
"Just an answer won’t be enough!"
Su Yanmei declared imperiously, "What I want is for all the shares of the AM Health and Beauty Center to be transferred into my name."
BEEP... BEEP...
The call was disconnected.
Su Yanyun’s expression had turned cold.
’That’s right!’
’Just as Jiang Xinghai and Shen Lingxue said, maybe using force to solve a problem now and then isn’t so bad after all.’
"She’s in my old hometown, the Su Family Stockade. It’s about an hour’s drive," Su Yanyun said, looking up at Jiang Xinghai.
Jiang Xinghai glanced at the time. "It’s two-thirty in the afternoon..."
’That’s enough time,’ he calculated. ’We can get back just after dark.’
It wouldn’t interfere with him buying herbal medicine for Shen Zhengye’s treatment.
"We’re leaving now?" Shen Lingxue stood up.
"Lingxue, I can handle this myself. You need to get back to running the company." Jiang Xinghai didn’t want to subject her to the exhausting journey.
"Alright." Shen Lingxue wasn’t worried; she knew how strong Jiang Xinghai’s combat abilities were.
"This is my personal business. I’ll go with you." Su Yanyun clenched her delicate fists. ’Besides, it’s about time I went back home to see my parents.’
"There’s no time to lose. Let’s go now," Jiang Xinghai said.
"Wait a moment. There’s something important I haven’t mentioned."
Su Yanyun let out a long breath and said with great solemnity, "Lingxue, I plan to establish the cosmetics company under the umbrella of your Shen Group. That’s why I asked you and Xinghai to come here together. This is the surprise I mentioned."
"Under my Shen Group?" Shen Lingxue was stunned.
Jiang Xinghai wore the same expression.
To establish a company under another group’s name would mean sacrificing at least a third of future profits.
Almost no one would be willing to do such a thing.
"I have no connections and no market presence. Aligning myself with a powerful backer is what I desperately need to survive." Su Yanyun’s thinking showcased her business acumen.
Shen Lingxue and Jiang Xinghai exchanged a look, then smiled.
Su Yanyun’s idea seemed naive on the surface, but in reality, it was remarkably shrewd.
She had the capital and the technology, but she lacked backing and connections. By operating under the banner of the Shen Group, not only could she ensure a smooth start and save time, but she would also greatly boost the Shen Group’s profits and accelerate its public listing.
"I agree. We’ll discuss the details when you two get back." Shen Lingxue’s words gave Su Yanyun a flicker of hope.
"Thank you, Lingxue!" Overcome with joy, Su Yanyun burst into tears and hugged Shen Lingxue.
Jiang Xinghai was about to turn away when Su Yanyun hugged him too. "Xinghai, thank you as well."
"You’re welcome." Jiang Xinghai, for his part, was rather enjoying the position.
Su Yanyun was hugging both of them at once, and the soft, fragrant embrace of the two women was intoxicating.
When Shen Lingxue saw the enraptured look on Jiang Xinghai’s face, she shot him a glare and quickly took a step back.
"Just a moment."
Su Yanyun suddenly crouched down to open a safe. She needed to take the black and gold Dragon Scale Card with her.
Shen Lingxue took the opportunity to pull Jiang Xinghai out of the office, whispering a reminder, "Come right back after you’re done. My dad is waiting for you for dinner."
"Aren’t you worried I might face some danger?" Jiang Xinghai rubbed the tip of his nose, putting on a pitiful expression.
"You have a point. After all, you’re going to an unfamiliar place. What if you run into some hidden master... In that case, you just don’t have to come back." Shen Lingxue’s lips curled into a sly smile.
"So, you’re trying to use this opportunity to murder your dear husband..." Jiang Xinghai said, looking utterly dejected.
Just then, Su Yanyun walked out with her bag. "What’s this about murdering a dear husband?"
