Chapter 487: Chapter 485: Your Immortal Son is Lost?! (Second update)

A stately and elegant woman entered a rather narrow room.

She wore a qipao, draped over with a black mink coat. Her hair was tied up in a bun, adorned with a jade hairpin. She wore a pair of pearl earrings, a bodhisattva jade pendant around her neck, and a jade bracelet on her wrist. Such a meticulous outfit radiated splendor and wealth. In this narrow space, her presence seemed too imposing to contain.

Upon seeing the woman, Qian Guanshu’s mouth twitched into a smile, “It’s been many years, Lady Jun, but you remain the same. Not only do you show no traces of aging, but you also seem more charming.”

Lady Jun, Leng Wanqing, gave a slight smile, “You, Mr. Qian, just seem to get stronger as you age.”

“The feeling’s mutual.”

“Mr. Qian, after all these years, how did you end up in a place like this?” Leng Wanqing’s cool voice held a note of sarcasm.

Qian Guanshu sat up from the bedside.

Compared to Jun Minghan, toward Leng Wanqing, he showed much more respect.

He said, “There are countless talents in the world, and I, at my age, am simply past my prime. Isn’t the son raised by Lady Jun an outstanding individual? I have no choice but to admit to my age!”

“Mr. Qian, you are too modest. My son has made progress these years mostly thanks to your guidance.”

“Lady Jun is too humble. Young Mr. Jun is a prodigy, blessed by the heavens. What right or ability do I have to offer him advice? I simply offered my insignificant assistance, sincerely supporting young Mr. Jun in his great cause in life.”

“Mr. Qian, there’s no need to beat around the bush. We have known each other for many years; you can just say whatever you need to.”

“Since Lady Jun is so forthright, if I, Qian, keep talking, I will appear insincere. Indeed, I have suffered due to Ji Baijian’s plot, or more directly put, I fell into Jun Mingyu’s trap.”

When Leng Wanqing heard the name Jun Mingyu, her face changed noticeably.

Having lived to such age, naturally she concealed her emotions well.

She laughed lightly, “Mr. Qian, feel free to say it.”

“Since Lady Jun says so, I will not hide anything. Ji Baijian, the eldest son of the Ji family, kept a low profile. Yet, two years ago, after marrying Song Zhizhi, the daughter of Song Shan, he suddenly became very active in Jin City! After dealing with him, I realized this man’s ability was beyond my expectations. His mysterious identity led me to suspect that he is a descendant of the Ye family. My downfall this time is derived from his scheme. I made all the preparations, never imagining that Ji Baijian would unite with Jun Mingyu, using sea power to capture me on the spot. If Ji Baijian is indeed on Jun Mingyu’s side, Lady Jun, you really need to be cautious.”

“A mere Ji Baijian can instil such fear in Mr. Qian?!” Leng Wanqing said with a hint of disdain.

“I also initially described him as insignificant, thinking of him as just a clever young man in his twenties. No matter how smart he is, what could he possibly do? But the facts prove that this man’s background is not to be underestimated. Lady Jun, it’s better for you not to take him lightly.”

“Since Mr. Qian says so, then I will bear this young man in mind,” Leng Wanqing said indifferently, “but until now, Mr. Qian, you haven’t stated your purpose.”

“Lady Jun, surely you can guess?” Qian Guanshu smiled.

“It’s better for Mr. Qian to say it out loud.”

“I want to get out of here.”

“Didn’t Minghan tell you about your current predicament?” asked Leng Wanqing.

“What can’t be done under the cover of Lady Jun?”

“I’m just a mere woman.”

“Lady Jun, there’s no need to refuse. Over the years, we’ve done many things that can’t be seen by others. If even one of them were exposed, it would cause an uproar in Yanshang Country.”

Leng Wanqing’s face changed slightly.

She gave a soft laugh, “So, Mr. Qian, how would you like me to help you?”

“Young Mr. Jun just told me that in front of the entire nation, with solid evidence, it’s an infeasible fairy tale to clear my name. That would just be digging a pit for young Mr. Jun and Lady Jun. I, Qian, certainly wouldn’t lack such self-knowledge as to ask you both to risk your lives to save me. Naturally, I won’t make things difficult for young Mr. Jun and Lady Jun.”

“So, Mr. Qian has a plan?”

“I’m planning to fake my death. I’ll fake a suicide out of fear of punishment and use this opportunity for Lady Jun to switch me out and help me escape,” Qian Guanshu emphasized each word.

Leng Wanqing looked at Qian Guanshu and asked in a calm voice, “Mr. Qian, are you sure? If you choose to fake your death, you, Mr. Qian, can never show yourself to people again.”

“At my age, I’m at an age to retire, so who am I to meet? I just want to hang in there and watch my good-for-nothing son. Without me, I’m afraid he won’t survive a day.”

“We are all parents. I understand, Mr. Qian. Since Mr. Qian has made up his mind, we will do as Mr. Qian wishes.”

“Thank you, Lady Jun.”

“It’s getting late, Mr. Qian. You should rest more. Leave the rest to Minghan.”

“My thanks to young Mr. Jun.”

Leng Wanqing nodded slightly and left with Jun Minghan.

Qian Guanshu watched their retreating figures and chuckled coldly.

Once he gets out this time, the first person he wants to deal with is Ji Baijian. He’s determined to send him to the grave!

Outside the detention center.

As a black car left, the other cars followed, and the detention center returned to its original state.

In the car.

Jun Minghan sat properly next to Leng Wanqing, not even daring to let out a loud breath.

Leng Wanqing gazed out the window, expressionless.

Jun Minghan could not guess what his mother was thinking, so he chose to remain quiet.

“Arrange people to take Qian Guanshu away according to his wish tomorrow night,” Leng Wanqing suddenly ordered.

Jun Minghan was somewhat surprised, “Are we really just going to satisfy Qian Guanshu’s demand? He is very domineering. Why don’t we take this opportunity to kill him?”

“Don’t you think I’d like to kill him if I could? If he’s killed, everything we’ve done secretly all these years will be exposed,” Leng Wanqing replied coldly.

Jun Minghan clenched his teeth, “These years, Qian Guanshu has increasingly grown out of our control. I’m worried that if he stays, he’ll be a menace.”

“He is indeed a menace.” There was a murderous look in Leng Wanqing’s eyes.

“So we’re not going to do anything about it?”

“Who says we’re not?” said Leng Wanqing, “Let Ji Baijian handle this.”

“Are you thinking of winning over Ji Baijian?” Jun Minghan frowned, “He’s not as simple as you think. He’s now in cahoots with Jun Mingyu and won’t possibly work for us.”

“Who says you need somebody to be on your side to use them?”

“I don’t understand what you mean.”

Leng Wanqing’s eyes narrowed, her words loaded with depth, “If Ji Baijian is really as clever as Qian Guanshu says, why don’t we collaborate with him once?”

Jun Minghan knitted his eyebrows.

“I’d like to see just how capable Ji Baijian is,” Leng Wanqing said coldly, her thoughts unreadable. After a while, she turned to her son, “From now on, all you need to do is execute Qian Guanshu’s orders conscientiously!”

“Yes,” Jun Minghan obeyed Leng Wanqing reverently, complying with her every command.

Meanwhile…

Ji Baijian received a call from Jun Mingyu.

“Jun Minghan has left the detention center, with his mother.” Jun Mingyu was straightforward.

“So Qian Guanshu is in league with the lady of the Jun Family.” Ji Baijian affirmed.

“Yes.”

“And for the lady of Jun to meet Qian Guanshu, it seems that Qian Guanshu holds a significant amount of evidence against Lady Jun.” Ji Baijian said.

“Probably.”

“But, right now, we can’t possibly take advantage of Qian Guanshu to deal with Lady Jun. Utilizing him might backfire. After all these years, Qian Guanshu has reached this point where he can play games of power and threaten Lady Jun of the official family. We can’t hope to get any benefits from him.”

“So…”

“Kill him to get rid of one enemy.” Ji Baijian was determined.

“Isn’t that eliminating a threat for Jun Minghan?” Jun Mingyu asked.

He could think of it, so Ji Baijian must have considered it too.

“It’s also clearing a menace for us. I’m certain if we don’t deal with Qian Guanshu this time, next time he will relentlessly pursue us! Qian Guanshu can cooperate with Jun Minghan despite their differences, using each other, while we will always be Qian Guanshu’s arch-enemies! Why leave an enemy for ourselves?!”

“Your analysis is even more thorough!” Jun Mingyu conceded.

“So this time, we will have to cooperate with Jun Minghan. A mutually beneficial one-time cooperation.”

“Okay.” Jun Mingyu nodded, “What do you want me to do?”

“For now, do nothing, continue to draw in the people you want, conserve your power. I will handle the rest.”

“Ji Baijian, you can’t just die.”

He still needed him to fight for the majority of his empire!

“That’s not your concern.”

He coldly hung up the phone after saying this.

Jun Mingyu stared at his phone, speechless.

Why was this man so cold towards him that it left a bad taste in his mouth?

Ji Baijian was somewhat silent after hanging up the call.

Song Zhizhi had just come home from work.

Recently, matters related to commercial management were fewer, she worked from nine to five, the timing was quite fixed.

Looking at Ji Baijian’s expression, she asked, “Has there been some change?”

“Madam.” Ji Baijian said, “Do you think your husband is formidable?”

“…” In what way?!

Seeing Song Zhizhi’s reaction, Ji Baijian chuckled, “It’s better for Madam to have a clean mind.”

Song Zhizhi was speechless, “What are you trying to say.”

“As Madam once said, we will soon be besieged on all sides. Because of my capabilities, many people will have their sights set on me, turning me into a target.”

Song Zhizhi’s expression changed slightly.

Although he was seriously praising himself, if Ji Baijian was saying this, the situation must be really serious.

“But don’t worry, Madam, I won’t just die like that. Before I die, I should at least have a son…”

“You are not allowed to say death!” Song Zhizhi was furious.

Ji Baijian looked at her, “Can’t bear the thought of losing me?”

“If you die, I will definitely remarry immediately, to…. Jun Mingyu!” Song Zhizhi randomly mentioned a sturdy man for her counter-argument!

“You dare!” In one move, Ji Baijian swept Song Zhizhi into his arms, and pressed her down onto the sofa.

Song Zhizhi was not going to back down, “If you dare to die, I dare to do it!”

“Anyway, Jun Mingyu won’t marry you.” Ji Baijian said bluntly.

“How would you know?” Song Zhizhi retorted.

Ji Baijian replied, “He doesn’t have the ability to.”

“If the young master of the official family doesn’t have the ability, do you?”

“Yes, I do!”

As the words fell, a passionate kiss descended…

Song Zhizhi lay down on the bed, too lazy to even move her pinky toe.

She was wondering why her belly showed no signs of movement at all?

She felt a nameless sorrow.

At this moment, she was forced to believe in the curse!

The bane of her Ye Family lineage where the descendants couldn’t reproduce well!

“What’s Madam thinking about?” Ji Baijian came out of the bathroom, slid under the blanket, and took her into his arms.

Song Zhizhi naturally nestled in his embrace.

She felt that Ji Baijian had spoiled her rotten recently, she was almost unable to take care of herself.

“I was thinking that being a daughter-in-law of the Ye Family, the pressure is really great.”

“Only I’m left in the Ye Family, who’s pressurizing you?” Ji Baijian raised his brows.

Right, only this old bastard was left!

So, the pressure was even greater.

Otherwise, the ancestral line of the Ye Family would be cut off!

“Your son.” Song Zhizhi emphasized each word, a bit angrily, “When will your divine son deign to come down to earth?”

“Madam need not worry too much, our son is merely lost.”

“…”
