Chapter 5 Uncovering A Plot
"What? How could this happen?" Ye Chen feigned shock.
After a moment, he sighed, "Lin Feng, I know you're feeling jealous, but there is truly nothing going on between me and Yunuo. You're just trying to tarnish my reputation with baseless accusations. Can't you come up with a better reason to accuse me? This will only make Yunuo resent you even more."
Lin Feng was taken aback when Zhang Yang turned against him at the last moment, and he was enraged. He grabbed Zhang Yang and slapped him hard across the face.
"You liar, how dare you deny the truth!"
Zhang Yang, holding his face in pain, retorted, "What am I lying about? The truth is, Wang Hui is still ill, and you're forcing him out of the hospital with a knife."
"Lin Feng, if you still think I'm lying, why don't you call Wang Hui in front of your wife and hear it from him."
Angrily nodding, Lin Feng said, "Fine, I'll call Wang Hui now and see what you, you liar, have to say!"
With a stern expression, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
The phone rang for a while before someone answered.
"Hello, this is the traffic police station. Who are you in relation to the deceased?"
Deceased?
Lin Feng's body trembled, and he anxiously asked, "Hello, what happened to Wang Hui?"
A clear voice responded, "There was a car accident, and both he and his son tragically passed away."
"What?" Lin Feng was stunned.
He suddenly looked at Ye Chen!
It must be his doing!
Murder to cover up the truth!
At that moment, Ye Chen casually asked, "What's the matter? Why the long face?"
Lin Feng calmed down completely. Ye Chen was too powerful for him to confront directly, but it would only further upset Yang Yunuo.
He needed to find another way!
Squinting his eyes, he smiled bitterly and said, "Ye Chen, you're skilled at covering up your tracks. I can't compete with your deceitful tactics. We'll see!"
Ye Chen shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Lin Feng, you truly are something. You know the other party died in a car accident, yet you still bring up the deceased."
"To be honest, it doesn't matter if you falsely accuse me, but it hurts your wife deeply."
"You, sigh..."
Seeing this hypocritical behavior, Lin Feng couldn't help but grab the other's collar.
He shouted angrily, "You scoundrel, you're nothing but a sly hypocrite."
In the midst of the argument, a silver needle from the Starry Tower in his mind was already in his hand. With a flick of his finger, it swiftly pierced Ye Chen's acupoint.
Due to the speed and the distraction of the argument, Ye Chen didn't feel a thing.
Just as Lin Feng was about to retract the needle, Yang Yunuo slapped him across the face.
"Idiot! Have you had enough? Let go!"
"Do you know that just now, Mr. Ye offered to help your stepmother, and you didn't even thank him. Instead, you attacked him. You're truly ungrateful!"
"Lin Feng, I'll give you one last chance. Apologize to Mr. Ye now, or it's over between us, let's get a divorce!"
Boom!
Lin Feng was shocked, his vision blurred, and he released his grip on Mr. Ye's collar.
Wide-eyed, he stared blankly at Yang Yunuo.
He had rushed over to expose Mr. Ye's deception, to protect Yang Yunuo.
But now, Yang Yunuo was defending Mr. Ye.
Yang Yunuo, you're my wife!
I've never wronged you!
And now, in your eyes, I'm not even as good as this deceiver!!!
Lin Feng's heart shattered.
Through gritted teeth, he said, "You want to divorce me for him? Say it again!!"
Yang Yunuo lifted her head and said, "I could say it a thousand times, and it would still be the same. Lin Feng, you have been unreasonable, which disappoints me. I have been waiting for you to recover, but what have you done? You have been in this half-dead state, and now Mr. Ye lends you money, but you repay him with ingratitude, being unreasonable! I have had enough of this kind of life, why should I endure grievances with you! Apologize to Mr. Ye immediately!"
Lin Feng was so angry that his whole body trembled, feeling immense pain.
Mr. Ye harmed her like this, and Yang Yunuo, as his wife, not only did not believe him, but also made him apologize to the other party.
Yang Yunuo!
Have you finally spoken your mind?
I have no money or power now, so you want to divorce me, right?
In a fit of rage, pointing at Yang Yunuo tremblingly, "Fine! Fine! Yang Yunuo, I'll just pretend I'm blind, I'll just pretend I've been feeding a dog all these years! You believe him and not me! I am your husband!! If you want a divorce, fine! I'll grant it to you!"
Then he pointed at Ye Chen, "You scoundrel, our business is not finished, you wait for me!"
Turning around, he walked away in big strides.
Yang Yunuo was stunned, never expecting Lin Feng, who had always been so obedient to her, to react so strongly now.
Could she have really misunderstood him?
But when she thought of Lin Feng's attitude, she couldn't help but feel angry.
Who do you think you are to divorce me!
I borrowed money from Mr. Ye for you, and now you turn against me, how am I supposed to live!
"Lin Feng, you jerk, don't walk away, explain yourself before you go!"
Yang Yunuo chased after him, determined to clear things up.
There really was nothing between her and Ye Chen.
But at this moment, Lin Feng had already disappeared into the night.
"Lin Feng, you jerk, stop right there, stop..."
Watching Lin Feng walk away, Yang Yunuo helplessly squatted down, tears streaming down her face in anger.
When did things between her and Lin Feng become like this?
When did they stop understanding each other, stop communicating with each other?
Was it really my fault?
Yang Yunuo went back in a daze, and just as she reached the door of the room, she heard Ye Chen cursing Dr. Zhang again.
"You fool, you ruined my plan! If it weren't for you, I would have already been with Yang Yunuo!! And you have the nerve to argue with me! Damn it!"
Ye Chen smashed a bottle on Dr. Zhang's head, saying fiercely, "I can make Wang Hui and his son die in a car accident, and I can make you disappear without a trace! Now, I have arranged for you to fly out of the country. When everything is settled, you can come back!"
"Thank you, Ye Shao, thank you, Ye Shao, I know I was wrong."
Dr. Zhang, covered in blood, trembled in fear.
But just as he was about to leave, Ye Chen directly pulled out a syringe filled with poison and stabbed it into Dr. Zhang's neck.
"You, you're killing me..."
Dr. Zhang's eyes were filled with shock and a hint of regret.
Ye Chen, however, silenced him for good.
"Ah!"
Yang Yunuo, who saw this scene from outside, screamed in horror and her legs went weak.
Lin Feng was right.
This was all Ye Chen's plan!
She had wrongly accused Lin Feng!
Ye Chen opened the door and, upon seeing Yang Yunuo, decided to drop the act and dragged her into the room.
Ye Chen didn't expect Yang Yunuo to come back. He thought she had left with Lin Feng.
Now things were bad, as Yang Yunuo caught him in the act. He knew he couldn't hide it anymore.
So, abandoning his usual gentle demeanor, he said with a fierce look, "Yunuo, since you've caught me, there's nothing for me to hide. All of this was indeed my doing, all for you!"
He grabbed Yang Yunuo's shoulder and said sinisterly, "Yunuo, as long as you obediently marry me, I will spare Lin Feng. If you don't obey, not only will Lin Feng and his mother die, but your parents will also die. Think carefully before you speak. Our Ye family is the underground emperor of Piaocheng. Your family, a small clan like that, is too easy to destroy."
Yang Yunuo's face turned pale.
She had falsely accused Lin Feng.
It was all orchestrated by Ye Chen, this villain!
What could she possibly do?
If she refused, Ye Chen would harm Lin Feng, putting her family in jeopardy as well.
The Ye family, as the underground power in Piaocheng, had eyes and ears everywhere, making resistance futile.
Having already falsely accused Lin Feng once, she couldn't allow Ye Chen to harm him again!
With tears streaming down her face, she closed her eyes and uttered in desperation, "I... I agree to your terms, please spare them, I implore you."
Ye Chen, with a smirk on his face, pinched Yang Yunuo's cheek and said:
"Good, that's the way to go. You must comply obediently, only then can Lin Feng, his foster mother, your parents, live long lives."
He then casually sat beside Yang Yunuo, picked up a glass of wine, and made a friendly gesture towards her, saying, "To avoid any complications, let's have the wedding in three days."
"Tomorrow, you will go with Lin Feng to obtain a divorce certificate, and simultaneously, I will visit your home to propose. Your avaricious mother will surely not decline."
