Chapter 209 Do My Bidding… or Die

"The YangFamily… is what I want. Not even the shadow of your hair will be touched. But… you have to do everything that I've told you to do," Lily said with an obvious spark in her eyes - but it was too quick for Yang Jing to analyze.

"You… You want us to work for you?" Yang Jing asked, disbelief visible in his eyes.

"You've misunderstood." Lily stared at the man intently. This Yang Jing was known to be stern and ruthless. According to Zhuo Jingren, this man was even more ruthless than his own father. "Working requires a certain compensation. Now… we both know that is not what I want. I don't want to complicate things. My meaning is simple: from now on the Yang Family will do everything that I want them to do. If I say east, they will go east. If I say jump then they will jump… without any rewards or compensation."

"You want us to become your slaves?"

"Slave is… too excessive. But you can think of it like that," She answered. "Let's just say, I am holding all of your lives hostage. Do my bidding… or die."

"Simple, right?" she added.

"You-" Yang Jing could not count the number of times that Lily had rendered him speechless today. To be honest, Yang Jing had never met a woman as ambitious as Lily! How could she dream of making the whole Yang Family do her bidding?

"I cannot agree to your terms," Yang Jing said bluntly. He wanted to insult Lily for being too ambitious, but before he could utter a word, his phone rang. "Excuse me… I am going to get this." He rose from his seat and walked towards the door of Lily's office. After making sure that he'd established enough distance between them, he answered the call.

And instantly his gaze landed on the woman who was looking at him with a small smile on her face. As he continued to listen to the call, Yang Jing started to emit a coldness that he'd never once displayed since he began dealing with Lily. Slowly, he balled his hand into a fist before avoiding Lily's eyes.

Then he dropped the call and walked towards Lily's table.

"What did you do?"

In response, Lily lifted an eyebrow at him. "I told you that you only had five minutes." She lowered her gaze to examine her nails before she shifted it back to the man towering in front of her. "Did you expect me to… wait for your decision? Mr. Yang… I don't have all day to deal with you and your family."

"How could you frame my Mother and Aunt?" Yang Jing hissed. He received a call that He Yuyan and Yang Lina had both been invited to the police station. Apparently, the police were notified of Li Tian Ya's murder last night and they found some evidence that led them to Yang Lina and He Yuyan. The most infuriating part is that the media got hold of it and immediately assumed that Xuan Zengmo and Yang Lina wanted to silence Li Tian Ya because of the video that was spread online.

Now, various sources have claimed that it was Li Tian Ya himself who spread those videos in an effort to blackmail Xuan Zengmo and Yang Lina. Since the Xuan family was based in Hong Kong, Li Tian Ya chose to go to Mainland China to hide, thinking that the Xuan Family wouldn't be able to track him down. Unfortunately, he underestimated Yang Lina's backing.

Yang Lina  had the resources of the Yang Family at her disposal. She collaborated with her sister-in-law He Yuyan to track Li Tian Ya. Yang Lina even travelled to Mainland China to kill the man herself.

"Your mother and Yang Lina are, in fact, murderers. What 'framing' are you talking about?" Lily then stifled a laugh. "News reporters must be camping outside of your Yang residence already, huh."

"How could the Great General Yang raise such a daughter?" she taunted.

"They did not kill Li Tian Ya!"

"So?"

"What do you mean, 'so'?" Yang Jing fumed. How could this woman be so vicious?

"We've already established that your family is not to intervene. This is merely a taste of what we can do. You can call us evil if you want to… but Yang Lina and He Yuyan deserve it. Whatever happens to them in prison is already out of my control. Or did you think you could still negotiate and tell me that it was He Xinlan who killed my mother?" Seeing Yang Jing just stare at her, Lily continued, "He Xinlan will receive her karma soon enough. For now… I will deal with you and your family."

Yang Jing just stared wide eyed at Lily. The prisons in Mainland China are notorious for exercising severe treatment of prisoners and for using capital punishment. If Yang Lina and He Yuyan went to prison in China who knows what kind of torture they might suffer. At that point, Yang Jing understood exactly what Lily meant  when she told him that she could read him like an open book.

Lily predicted that the Old Man would still try to protect Yang Lina by asking her to return directly to Hong Kong as the laws in Hong Kong are not as brutal as those in Mainland China. Lily must have predicted that the Old Man would cut ties with Yang Lina as soon as possible and ask her to leave China. She did not wait for the old man to do this. Instead, she asked someone to kill Li Tian Ya to frame Yang Lina and He Yuyan, making it impossible for them to leave China.

All along, the Yang Family had been trying to show Lily that they were doing what she wanted while trying to protect both Yang Lina and He Yuyan behind her back. It appears that Lily was able to see through their act and implemented her own plans ahead of time. It was as if Lily had been laying a trap while provoking them in the process, pushing them directly into her trap.

This made him wonder exactly when did Lily plan all of this? It was only yesterday that she showed him Li Tian Ya's video. It was also yesterday when she learned about her mother's murder. How was she able to predict all of this?
