Upon hearing Xu Wen Jing’s words, Lin Yi Chen thought coldly: No face to live? It seems like you’re doing just fine now. It’s only when the slap lands on your own face that you realize how painful it is!
However, he feigned surprise and asked, “Chi Zaozao did it? Why would she do that?”
“It’s all because of that wretched person, Jiang Wan Yu! I merely mentioned Jiang Wan Yu’s name, and she actually attacked me. Birds of a feather flock together, as they say. Jiang Wan Yu is not a good person, and it turns out her friend is just as despicable!” Xu Wen Jing seethed with anger.
Lin Yi Chen’s expression turned dark.
In the next moment, he coldly said to Xu Wen Jing, “I understand. I’ll send someone to investigate this matter. I’m busy with important work right now, so I’ll hang up. You should go home and rest.”
With that, he hung up Xu Wen Jing’s call, sparing himself from hearing her foul language.
After hanging up, Lin Yi Chen turned to Jiang Wan Yu and said, “Chi Zaozao slapped Xu Wen Jing twice at the Starlight Awards! Your friend sure made a bold move!”
Jiang Wan Yu’s mouth twitched, and she said worriedly, “Is this good for Chi Zaozao? Won’t the Xu family seek revenge?”
Lin Yi Chen reassured her, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen. When Xu Wen Jing called me in a panic, she was hoping I would take action against the Chi family. As for the Xu family, if they had the capability, they would have confronted the Chi family long ago.”
This eased Jiang Wan Yu’s concerns.
It was evident that Chi Zaozao had slapped Xu Wen Jing to vent her frustration for her sake.
Jiang Wan Yu didn’t want her friend to bring trouble to the Chi family because of her.
Fortunately, Lin Yi Chen wasn’t truly heartless toward her.
At this moment, Lin Yi Chen suddenly looked at Jiang Wan Yu with a solemn expression and said, “Xiaoyu, in the coming days… I might be quite busy. If you hear any negative rumors from outside, don’t believe them. Only trust what I tell you, understand?”
Hearing this, Jiang Wan Yu felt a sense of unease creeping in. “Yi Chen, are you planning something? Please don’t keep it from me this time, okay?”
She would rather know what he was doing than be left in the dark as she had been before.
Lin Yi Chen nodded and then spoke with a cold determination, “I’ve been planning this for four years, and now it’s time to close the net! Only when Lin Haowei loses everything will he no longer pose a threat to us!”
People like Lin Haowei, once they had power in their hands would undoubtedly act recklessly to satisfy their desires and twisted psyche.
If they didn’t leave him with nothing and lock him up in prison, he would undoubtedly seek ruthless revenge on everyone.
Therefore, if Lin Yi Chen was going to act, he needed to ensure it was a decisive blow, and leaving no chance for a comeback.
For this purpose, he had been preparing within the Lin Group for four years.
Otherwise, did Lin Haowei really think Lin Yi Chen was foolish enough to willingly contribute to the Lin Group despite not holding any shares?
Although Lin Yi Chen’s words sounded casual, Jiang Wan Yu knew they concealed significant risks.
She grabbed Lin Yi Chen’s arm and took a deep breath, and nodded, “I understand. Go ahead and do what you need to do. No matter what happens, I will trust you.”
“Good, as long as you and Dian Dian are fine, leave the rest to me,” Lin Yi Chen said with a burning hatred in his eyes.
He had waited too long for this day.
Lin Haowei wanted to turn him into a dog, but it also depended on whether Lin Yi Chen was willing to be one!
