CHAPTER 219: CHAPTER 211: FACE

Tu Wanzi mumbled to herself, but Lin Zhenxin heard every word.

Tampering with the compatibility report?

"Are you saying there was tampering with the compatibility report?" Lin Zhenxin asked.

Tu Wanzi’s eyes were complex as she pushed a copy of the original compatibility report to her from her bag.

"Clearly, you and Haohao’s kidney are a match, why wouldn’t you donate to her?"

Tu Wanzi thought of that scorching time, the resentment in her voice was unmistakable.

"Tu Wanzi!" Lin Zhenxin’s volume suddenly rose, her eyes cold as she stared directly at her.

"Why? The answer to that question seems quicker if you ask yourself!"

She said, then without hesitation, she tore the copy in front of her in half, and then in half again, and tore it once more.

"If you have any sense of shame, you shouldn’t have come looking for me today!"

Tu Wanzi’s face turned ashen.

"In what capacity are you facing me? My father’s mistress? Or my mother’s sister?"

—Tu Wanzi, in what capacity are you questioning me?

—I will come back eventually to take everything that was supposed to be mine!

Tu Xinya’s and Lin Zhenxin’s faces overlapped in front of her, causing Tu Wanzi to tense up, her eyes nervous.

"Also, about my mother..."

Lin Zhenxin looked at her coldly, even her voice was icy.

"What’s it got to do with you?"

D Town, Time Shore Inn.

Tu Haohao was sitting on the balcony, gazing at the moonlit sea outside through the French windows.

Three days ago, after leaving the Li Family, she didn’t go home, just made a call to Tu Wanzi.

Then she bought a plane ticket and came to D Town, a place she had wanted to visit ever since returning to the country.

D Town is known for its year-round spring, hot days and cool nights, with the moonlit sea as its classic highlight, now becoming a sanctuary for many literary enthusiasts.

Although it was a spontaneous trip, luckily it was off-peak season, so Tu Haohao quickly checked in.

For three whole days, she didn’t leave her room.

Because the night she landed, she developed a high fever.

The pain extending from her bones drenched her clothes with cold sweat.

Not to mention the long wound lying across her palm.

But from beginning to end, Tu Haohao didn’t cry.

On the third day, the fever subsided, she finally got up and sat on the rattan chair on the balcony, appreciating the moonlit sea’s beauty.

It was not until this moment that tears finally fell.

At first one drop, then two, finally stringing into a line, impossible to count.

As if to vent all the grievances of these days...

Tu Wanzi followed Lin Zhenxin out.

"Don’t think just because you now have Li Yanan as your backing you can do whatever you want!"

Her voice was sharp, losing all its past grace and calmness.

"Don’t forget, Li Yanan still has He Nuoxin! As long as a man isn’t blind, between you and He Nuoxin, anyone would choose the latter!"

Tu Wanzi spoke recklessly out of provocation, yet didn’t realize...

This sentence would come true regarding her own daughter!

"Just like your father chose me back then!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhenxin finally couldn’t hold back anymore and turned around.

It was the pain she never wanted mentioned, and the beginning of all her nightmares this lifetime!

How could Tu Wanzi speak of it so casually?

"Have you said enough?"

Lin Zhenxin walked back to Tu Wanzi, and while Tu Wanzi was completely off guard...

she reached out and fiercely grabbed her neatly arranged perm, forcing her to look into her eyes up close!

"Tu Wanzi, don’t push my patience any further, or... I will not spare you!"

She was no longer the powerless child she once was, nor the one hiding in the closet watching those two tossing on the bed!

Over the years, the Tu Family managed peace and superficial glory...

But that doesn’t mean it will last forever!

"If you keep saying ambiguous things, I don’t mind making the matters of that year known to all!"

Lin Zhenxin’s hand firmly pressed on Tu Wanzi’s head, ignoring the glances and photos taken by onlookers with phones!

"By then, your thin façade, and Tu Shaohong’s façade..."

Lin Zhenxin lightly patted Tu Wanzi’s cheek with her other hand.

Even in middle age, the maintenance kept Tu Wanzi’s skin smooth.

"I’ll tear it off the way it went on!"

Tu Wanzi seemed petrified, allowing Lin Zhenxin to act as she pleased.

All around was a deathly silence, contrasting with the noisy traffic sounds.

Lin Zhenxin had to admit, her temper was not good.

Yao Lemon once commented, at first, she seemed like a quiet girl, but when she lost her temper, it was like she had gone insane?

In past years, suppressing her pride to make a living, her temper was deeply buried.

But later, after meeting Li Yanan, she suddenly realized, no matter what she was like, he could always support her.

This feeling, truth be told, was wonderful.

Like the years of agony, the backbone bent by life was being straightened bit by bit by him!

Lin Zhenxin finally let go, Tu Wanzi dumbfoundedly looked at her, not knowing how long they stood there, Tu Wanzi suddenly seemed mad, trying to rush towards her!

But before getting close, someone had already intercepted her midway!

Not just one person!

Those people stood expressionless in front of Tu Wanzi, like a wall, protecting Lin Zhenxin behind them.

Even Lin Zhenxin was a bit startled by the sudden turn of events.

"Madam, Mr. Li will be here soon." Luckily, the person standing at the forefront explained to her.

These people, were they sent by Yanan?

Several thoughts spun in Lin Zhenxin’s mind, but soon, the Tu Family’s chauffeur also came over, guarding in front of Tu Wanzi.

At this time, it was already lunchtime break at the radio station.

"Lin Zhenxin, if you really disdain the Tu Family so much! Then give back the thirteen percent of shares!"

Across the crowd, when Tu Wanzi spoke again, she seemed to have regained some of her voice.

But it was so low that only a few around could hear it.

It all comes down to the thirteen percent of the Tu Family’s shares?

Lin Zhenxin sneered internally, meanwhile seeing several colleagues in the crowd pointing and whispering.

In that moment, she felt a sudden despondency.

But the next second, before Lin Zhenxin could react, she was already pulled into a strong pair of arms.

The crowd uttered low exclamations due to the sudden change.

Lin Zhenxin buried her face in the chest, inhaling deeply, it was the delicate scent of pine, so familiar, she didn’t need to look...

to see his face!

"Ms. Tu Wanzi, I hate it when people cause trouble for my wife quietly."

Li Yanan’s voice vibrated through his chest, Lin Zhenxin felt he selectively ignored Tu Wanzi’s obviously disheveled hair.

Tu Wanzi felt a chilling sensation along her spine under the gaze of those hawk-like eyes.

It was an entirely different feeling compared to facing Lin Zhenxin.

"Moreover, my wife is pregnant, if anything happens to her..." Li Yanan intentionally prolonged his words.

"I won’t spare the entire Tu Family."

He didn’t say ’you’, but the entire ’Tu Family’!

Tu Wanzi understood the threat in Li Yanan’s words, just about to speak, yet for some reason suddenly thought of Li Miya and Li Yingying, mother and daughter!

Almost simultaneously, she shivered!

Uncontrollably!

The Li Family now treading on thin ice, if it had nothing to do with Li Yanan, Tu Wanzi wouldn’t believe it even if she were beaten to death.

Ever since that inexplicable skeleton was unearthed, the Li Family seemed ensnared by misfortune, unable to escape.

Though Tu Wanzi and Li Yingying’s relationship was good, personal relations are personal, some matters still prioritize self-interest!

If it weren’t that Haohao liked Li Chengze too much...

"President Li, you’re joking, how could I possibly cause trouble for your wife?"

Tu Wanzi quickly calmed down, thoroughly analyzing the situation, no one did it better than her these years.

"Better not, Ms. Tu Wanzi, you should weigh it carefully."

After saying this, Li Yanan escorted Lin Zhenxin into the car.

Soon, the car disappeared from everyone’s sight...

Since bringing Li Yingying back, Li Chengze hadn’t had a day not living in turmoil.

Who knows when, misfortunes began landing on their Li Family one after another.

Whether it’s Li Miya’s madness, or Li Yingying’s madness, perhaps even the Li Family’s market ups and downs...

All he could do, was use all his strength to desperately find a balance point.

At this moment, Li Chengze stood outside Li Yingying’s bedroom door, listening to the sound of things being smashed inside.

Leaning his head against the wall, chest full of pent-up frustration.

He suddenly missed Tu Haohao.

Though the word ’miss’ seemed just too sentimental.

The next day back at the office, he unexpectedly discovered blood on the table, belatedly recalling, it seemed he so pushed...

From that day on, he couldn’t contact Tu Haohao.

Frankly speaking, developing a relationship with He Nuoxin wasn’t his original intention.

But when childhood expectations became reality, he found it hard to let go.

So, dragging... became the best excuse to maintain the status quo.

Actually, indecisiveness is every man’s taboo, Li Chengze included...

But...

Dialing Tu Haohao’s phone again, the ringtone sounded, but the result always ended in voicemail!

"Aren’t you going to ask why I sent people to follow you?" Li Yanan’s voice suddenly intruded into Lin Zhenxin’s mind.

Lin Zhenxin first stayed silent for a moment, actually still immersed in previous memories of Tu Wanzi.

"Where are you taking me? I have to go back to work this afternoon..."

Talking about work reminded Lin Zhenxin of the discordant atmosphere upon returning to her job that morning, she pursed her lips.

Lin Zhenxin pursed her lips, and Li Yanan instantly understood, it seemed her morning work didn’t make her happy.

"I said, why aren’t you asking about me sending people to follow you?"
