Chapter 495 - 495 Lin Yaqing's Secret
Hearing Shen Qianyue say this, Shen Baichuan immediately became anxious and said, "Eldest Brother, how can you still speak in favor of that old scoundrel Tie? He is now supporting Ye Qing, clearly intending to oppose our Shen Family. Ye Qing is the descendant of the Northern Li Family, and our Shen Family and the Northern Li Family are sworn enemies. With their descendant coming to Shenchuan City, he must be aiming to deal with us!"
"Baichuan, when looking at anything, you can't just look at the surface," Shen Qianyue stated solemnly, "Mr. Ye is generous and certainly not a despicable person. This matter requires thorough investigation. Firstly, whether Mr. Ye is indeed the descendant of the Northern Li Family remains to be verified. Moreover, even if he is their descendant, it doesn't mean that we have to outright denounce him."
As he spoke, Shen Qianyue gestured for Lin Yaqing to leave and said, "Aunt Lin, if there is nothing else, we are going to visit Senior Tie at the Xingyi Martial Arts School!"
Seeing Shen Qianyue's magnanimity, Lin Yaqing was very puzzled and indignantly said, "Shen Qianyue, have you forgotten the grudge between your Shen Family and the Northern Li Family? It doesn't matter if you have forgotten, but the Northern Li Family will definitely not forget. There's a saying that goes well, 'prevent problems before they arise.' With Mr. Ye coming here, it's just the beginning, who knows what bigger move the Lin family might be planning. If you don't deal with this matter swiftly, do you have to wait until the Northern Li Family's people come knocking on the Shen Family's door before deciding to fight back?"
"That's right, this woman's words are not wrong!" Shen Baichuan nodded and said, "Towards the people of the Northern Li Family, we should not show the slightest mercy!"
Lin Yaqing glared at Shen Baichuan, annoyed by his speech. Still, since Shen Baichuan was supporting her point, she refrained from lashing out at him.
"Baichuan, stop talking!" Shen Qianyue glared at Shen Baichuan, who immediately shut his mouth, knowing that his big brother was somewhat angry.
"Aunt Lin, please!" Shen Qianyue made a gesture indicating she should leave, clearly dismissing her.
Lin Yaqing was very upset with Shen Qianyue's reaction and disdainfully glanced at him, saying, "Hmph, so the people of the Shen Family are all such cowards. So be it, it's my own unwarranted kindness thinking to give you a warning so you won't be caught off guard and suffer a loss. Since you want to be such cowards, then I have nothing more to say. Hmph, maybe sometime soon, that little girl from the Shen Family will be duped by Mr. Ye, and that will be quite a scene to watch!"
Lin Yaqing did not notice that as she spoke those words, a glint of sharpness flashed again in Shen Qianyue's eyes.
After seeing Lin Yaqing off, Shen Qianyue closed the door, furrowed his brow, and took a seat next to the bed.
"Big Brother, what are you actually thinking?" Shen Baichuan asked with urgency, looking at Shen Qianyue, "Mr. Ye is a person from the Northern Li Family, and this matter is of great importance, we must report it to the family!"
"No rush!" Shen Qianyue slowly shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Let's investigate clearly first. Without evidence, we cannot arbitrarily accuse someone!"
"And when do you plan to investigate until?" Shen Baichuan said with frustration, "Do we have to wait until that Mr. Ye has firmly established himself in Shenchuan City? Didn't you see, that wretched Huangfu Ziyu and the Xikou Fire Butterfly, they are all helping that bastard. And that old Undying Tie Yongwen, when you calculate it, Mr. Ye's strength is very strong. If we don't take the opportunity to deal with him before he has settled down, it will be much harder to deal with him once he has!"
Shen Qianyue remained silent, simply frowning in contemplation, with a sharp light flickering in his eyes, leaving one to wonder what he was really thinking.
Lin Yaqing left the apartment where the Shen family members were staying, without returning to her own room, she walked a few laps around the courtyard and approached a secluded rockery in the backyard.
Lin Yaqing looked around to see if anyone was watching before quietly entering the rockery. The Lin family, being wealthy and powerful, had a large backyard garden, and the span of the rockery was also broad, making it an easy spot to play hide and seek.
Upon entering it and turning a few corners, Lin Yaqing looked around, seemingly searching for something.
"How did it go?" Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind Lin Yaqing, startling her. She turned her head to see a man of average height who had appeared behind her without notice.
The man appeared to be in his forties, with a sullen face and eyes that glinted with a cold sharpness, clearly no benevolent soul. Seeing the man, Lin Yaqing visibly recoiled and said in a low voice, "I... I told them everything you said... But, that Shen Qianyue, he seems... as if he doesn't care at all..."
"Doesn't care?" The man's brow furrowed slightly, he said, "How is that possible? The Shen Family and the Northern Li Family are mortal enemies, and it has been so for twenty years. Any member of the Northern Li Family who enters the area of the Southern Six Provinces is immediately driven out by the Shen Family. Now that someone from their family has come to Shenchuan City, how can the Shen Family not care? Are you sure you actually told the Shen Family at all?"
Lin Yaqing said anxiously, "I told her, but Shen Qianyue didn't believe me, there's nothing I can do!"
"Is that so?" The man looked at Lin Yaqing, a trace of a cold smile flashing across his face, he said, "Miss Lin, I hope you're not playing games with me. Don't forget, the messages you sent to that private detective are still in our hands. If this reaches the fiery-tempered old lady in your Lin family, hmph, Miss Lin, I'm afraid your fate won't be much better than Boss Lin's. Do you know how many people beat up Lin Tianhao in prison every day? The men's prison is still a bit better, but the women's prison, hmph, many of the women there are perverts. If you fall into their hands..."
The man smirked, sizing up Lin Yaqing's figure, and slowly said, "With Miss Lin's appearance and build, I'm afraid they would be ruined inside!"
"Ah!" Lin Yaqing screamed in fright at the man's words, but quickly covered her mouth. She took a few deep breaths, looked at the man angrily, and said firmly, "Go back and tell Yang Shitao, I hate that Ye surname more than he does, and if I could deal with him, of course, I wouldn't be soft. But, I really did tell Shen Qianyue this time, yet she doesn't believe me at all. What can I do? Tell Yang Shitao that I will definitely find a way to deal with Ye Qing, and tell him not to rush. If he insists on spreading my affairs, then so be it, we'll break off; I can't handle Ye Qing and he won't have it easy either!"
"Hehehe..." The man laughed coldly, walked in front of Lin Yaqing, and said, "Miss Lin, why are you so agitated? I didn't say I didn't believe you. It's just that I have to give Boss Yang an explanation, otherwise wouldn't all the information Boss Yang paid so much for go to waste?"
As he spoke, the man had already come face to face with Lin Yaqing. However, he didn't show any sign of stopping, inching closer to her step by step.
Lin Yaqing seemed to be very afraid of this man, retreating involuntarily as he approached. But the man had no intention of letting her go, relentlessly closing in on her. Lin Yaqing backed up until she reached a rockery, with no way out, and the man still didn't stop, continuing to walk towards her.
Lin Yaqing tried to move aside, but the man was one step ahead and reached out to lean on the rockery, trapping her between his arms. The man's face also slowly moved in, pressing close to Lin Yaqing's face.
"What do you want?" Lin Yaqing turned her head to the side and said angrily.
"Miss Lin, although there's no one else in the garden at this time, if your voice is too loud, people outside can still hear," the man whispered in Lin Yaqing's ear, "If you don't want your reputation ruined, keep it down. Don't worry, I'll make you enjoy it!"
Feeling the warmth on her earlobe, Lin Yaqing felt utterly disgusted. However, she genuinely didn't dare scream; if her family found out about her dealings with this man, then the matter of her defying her family's order and sending someone to kill Ye Qing would likely be exposed. If that were revealed, it would be the end of her!
"If you dare touch me, I'll kill you for sure!" Lin Yaqing threatened through clenched teeth.
"Is that so?" The man laughed coldly and whispered, "Miss Lin, have you forgotten that I still hold your weaknesses in my hands? Kill me? If I expose your affairs, I fear the first to die would be you!"
Lin Yaqing was furious and anxious, and said angrily, "I'm just collaborating with Yang Shitao to deal with that Ye surname, you... don't touch me!"
"Since we're in collaboration, we should be honest with each other!" the man said, and suddenly grabbed Lin Yaqing's shirt and ripped it off her with a swift motion.
"Ah!" Lin Yaqing let out another scream, but then quickly covered her mouth again because she really feared drawing attention.
The man noticed Lin Yaqing's concern, sneered, and said, "Miss Lin, we're all adults here, what's the big deal? I've heard you've been widowed for several years now, and have taken care of quite a few pretty boys. I'm sure you're not as pure as your little sister, right? Don't worry, I might not look as good as those boys, but my skills are far superior. One round with me and you'll be completely smitten!"
After saying this, the man didn't wait for Lin Yaqing to respond and kissed her forcefully. Lin Yaqing tried to resist with all her might, but how could a woman's strength compare to that of a grown man? Especially since this man was not weak, her struggles were in vain, and it didn't take long before her shirt was nearly torn off. The man didn't stop there, continuing downward, starting to tear at Lin Yaqing's skirt.
Sensing the man's hands on her, Lin Yaqing was terrified and desperately grabbed her skirt, trying to prevent him from tearing off her last line of defense.
Leaning in close to her ear, the man whispered, "Miss Lin, don't resist anymore. If the clothes get torn, you won't be able to go back, and that would be terrible, wouldn't it?"
Lin Yaqing was shocked, momentarily frozen. However, the man didn't hesitate at all, and tore off her last line of defense, unleashing his unrestrained desires upon her.
