Chapter 174
Just looking at the scratches on the car, Lin Jingran knew that the journey back had not been easy, but she said nothing. Standing before her was her only family member, someone she didn’t have the heart to beat or scold, so she could only prattle on, "It’s good to be back, good to be back, good to be back..."
"He said Chen Pingrui is dead, is it true?"
Ye Tian saw Lin Jingran looking at him and nodded.
Seeing that Lin Jingran remained silent, it meant that this guy was telling the truth. Chen Xing walked toward the villa without looking back, leaving behind a few silent people.
The three women of the Chen family had gathered. The traces of Xu Qingyang’s beating in the living room had not yet faded, and Lin Jingran felt a jolt of shock at the sight of the spider-web cracks on the floor. She hadn’t been very focused on Zheng Xinru’s conversation, initially thinking it was just her laying groundwork for her own interests, but now it appeared that the Liu Family brat was really ready to unleash a massacre on the Chen family.
"You’ve all seen the situation, Jingran, I’ve already said everything to Nan, and I surely won’t shortchange you on what you deserve. But now is not the time to be dividing the inheritance. Zhang Xiayang’s escape doesn’t mean the Liu Family will let things be, and although Liu Laogou is an old dog, Liu Ping is a wolf cub. You all better not play any tricks on me, or I can’t guarantee who the next to suffer a sudden heart attack will be. From now on, Pingrui’s company will be under my control, and Ye Tian will handle those shady industries. You don’t have objections, do you?"
Hearing Zheng Xinru speak so deliberately, Lv Nan was the first to nod in agreement. How could she dare object? Dong Cheng was her doing, yet still, he was brazenly forced away by Ye Tian’s bodyguard, and to avoid suspicion, it seemed she would have to stay here tonight.
Zheng Xinru nodded, then turned to Lin Jingran and asked, "What about you, Jingran?"
