Chapter 183: Regret of Lin Family_1
Upon learning that Su Chengyu had seen through the trap they had set for him that day, the Lin Family became terribly anxious, already on the edge of flight. They sent people to the Villa No.1 to gather information but came back with nothing concrete.
Finally, Lin Zhengxun could no longer suppress his fears and felt obligated to personally visit Hong Zhen Ting.
Hong Zhen Ting did meet with Lin Zhengxun. After seeing that Hong Zhen Ting was injured but not dead, Lin Zhengxun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hong Ye, is Su Chengyu dead?" Lin Zhengxun asked.
"He’s very much alive and has reconciled with me. We have agreed to live and let live from now on." Hong Zhen Ting responded in a dismissive tone.
"Hong Ye, we, the Lin Family, have completely offended Su Chengyu for your sake. From now on, you have to protect us; otherwise, Su Chengyu will surely retaliate."
In retrospect, Lin Zhengxun regretted his decision, but he had no choice but to cling to Hong Zhen Ting for support.
However, Hong Zhen Ting let out a scornful laugh and asked, "What do I have to do with Su Chengyu’s retaliation against you?"
"Hong Ye, you can’t say that. After all, it was for your sake that we offended him."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengxun felt utterly disheartened.
"Wasn’t it Su Chengyu this time around who came to my doorstep? How am I to know if you did not intentionally collude with him? The fact that I’ve not held you accountable is already lenient on my part."
