Chapter 693 In A Dilemma
Both of them were stunned by Huo Chenhuan’s words.
Su Yayan was the first to react. “Chenhuan!”
Huo Chenhuan tightened his grip on Su Yayan’s hand, but he did not give in. His eyes were still fixed on Ling Xiaoqi, and no one could tell if he was happy or angry.
After a short moment of shock, Ling Xiaoqi gradually calmed down.
“Yes, you’re right. As long as I acknowledge him, I can easily obtain everything that ordinary people dream of. Wealth, family background, status, everything. But so what? These things are indeed tempting, but they’re also hot to touch. Most importantly, they don’t belong to me.”
Ling Xiaoqi raised her head to look at Su Yayan and her husband. She smiled and said, “As you said, the Qin family is a mess. It’s so messy that I, an honest person who’s used to living my life, can’t imagine it. This is undoubtedly dangerous for me, not to mention that my mother’s life is involved.”
When Ling Xiaoqi said this, she seemed to feel a little cold. She subconsciously reached out and hugged herself. “If your guess is right, the young master of the Qin family didn’t die from an accident. Then, who knows how many people’s bones and blood are buried under those alluring things you just said?”
“Do you think I’ll be able to accept his gift and spend his money with peace of mind whenever I think about the fact that these things might be stained with my mother’s blood?”
Upon hearing her words, Huo Chenhuan finally looked better and said in a low voice, “It’s good that you understand.”
Huo Chenhuan did not object to Su Yayan helping Ling Xiaoqi, but before that, Ling Xiaoqi had to give them a clear answer.
He did not want his wife to be concerned about other people’s safety during her pregnancy and try her best to seek a chance of survival for them but end up in a difficult position and be blamed instead in the end.
“Since you’ve already made your decision, then you should be mentally prepared. You can be said to be Qin Fangde’s only life-saving straw now, and he won’t let go easily. Furthermore, you have to know that Qin Fangde came to find you, wanting to bring you home and make you his tool for a new round of family dispute.”
“We can’t keep this a secret. Soon, Mrs. Qin and their nephews will hear about it. By then, even if you don’t agree to go back with him, they won’t let you off easily.”
Ling Xiaoqi’s expression changed and Su Yayan’s heart skipped a beat.
Qin Fangde’s brothers who grew up together could fight to the death, resulting in them dying or getting injured.
Moreover, Ling Xiaoqi was a stranger who had led a wandering life since she was young. She had no feelings for them, but she could threaten their interests.
If what Huo Chenhuan said was true, Ling Xiaoqi would be trapped in a dilemma.
After Huo Chenhuan’s reminder, Su Yayan thought of something else. “Perhaps Qin Fangde knew about this and came to find you.”
Ling Xiaoqi’s expression turned even uglier when she heard what she said.
“No matter what, I will never acknowledge him, much less return to the Qin family with him.”
Su Yayan turned and glanced at Huo Chenhuan. Huo Chenhuan understood. “Qin Fangde will be looking for you frequently. It’s not safe for you to be alone. I’ll send someone to protect you secretly. It won’t affect your daily life and work.”
Ling Xiaoqi knew that Huo Chenhuan was only doing this for Su Yayan’s sake. She was not close to him, so she said gratefully, “Thank you.”
