“Go back first. If Yin Jia’s people see you, she won’t let you go,” Ye Cheng said softly.
Guan Tang pouted. “But I’m worried about you.”
Instead of replying to Guan Tang’s words, Ye Cheng asked in a low voice, “When will you be able to obtain Zhuang Ji’s embroidery manual?”
Guan Tang paused. Then, she said, “Don’t be anxious. I’ve already contacted my people. They’re on the move.”
Ye Cheng said calmly, “Mu Chen and the others are here now. This is the best time for your people to make a move. If Mu Chen and the others return, there won’t be another chance.”
Guan Tang nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry. I’ve already made the arrangements.”
Ye Cheng no longer spoke to Guan Tang. He did not even spare a glance at her. In his heart, other women were inferior to Zhuang Ning. At this moment, he missed Zhuang Ning even more; he missed her the most.
At this time, Ye Cheng’s phone vibrated slightly. After he discreetly blocked Guan Tang’s line of sight, he took a look. It was a message from Zhuang Ning.
Zhuang Ning: How are you? Don’t be anxious. Come and find me tonight.
Ye Cheng felt as though he had been injected with stimulants when he read Zhuang Ning’s message. He could not hide his smile as he replied with an, “Okay.”
Guan Tang was perceptive enough to see the change in Ye Cheng’s mood. She looked at his phone and asked, “Who is it? What’s the matter?”
Ye Cheng put his phone in his pocket before he leaned against the chair and said, “It was Chen Chen. He has some insider information for me from the police. Guan Tang, you should go back now. I can’t take care of you now. You have to pay attention to your own safety. Don’t let Yin Jia see you. Otherwise, that’ll be the end for you.”
Guan Tang stood up, looking somewhat dejected. How could she not understand Ye Cheng? However, she still could not help but feel disappointed. Ye Cheng was her only hope now. She bit her lower lip before she finally bent down and said in a low voice, “The two young masters of the Yin family are at the end of their lives. If you want to obtain the Yin family, you have to hurry up. Otherwise, Cheng Che will get the family for nothing. Naturally, that’s only if Cheng Che saves those two. The Yin family is currently busy with this matter.”
Ye Cheng’s heart stirred slightly, but his gaze was unchanged as he looked at Guan Tang and asked, “What do you mean by this?”
Guan Tang sat down next to him again before she whispered, “The two prodigal sons of the Yin family are terminally ill. Only Cheng Che can save them. However, how can Cheng Che be willing to donate his kidney and bone marrow to them? I’m guessing the Yin family will try to force Cheng Che to save them next. No matter how nice they are to you or how much they say they care, you can’t believe them. You can’t obtain anything from them for free.”
Guan Tang leaned back slightly. The shock on Ye Cheng’s face made her feel very satisfied. The most important way to hold onto Ye Cheng, her last straw, was to provide him with secrets. Since she did have Zhuang Ji’s embroidery manual now, she could only use the Yin family’s secrets.
Ye Cheng said softly, “Even if Cheng Che agrees, Mu Chen won’t agree.”
Guan Tang nodded. She looked at Ye Cheng with a smile as she asked, “That’s why the Yin family will definitely use force. Will you help Cheng Che or the Yin family?”
Ye Cheng slowly raised his hand and pointed at the red light above the door of the operating theater and said, “I’m not free right now. I have to take care of my father.”
Guan Tang’s smile deepened. “You’re the smartest man I’ve ever met. I’ll definitely think of a way to obtain the embroidery manual as soon as possible. Just wait for my good news.”
Guan Tang gave Ye Cheng a surprise kiss on the cheek before she turned around and left.
Ye Cheng leaned back in his chair and did not move. He replayed the events over the past few days one by one, connecting every link together. He sneered. “Sure enough, there’s no free lunch in the world.”
As expected, one could not be kind. No matter how Ye Cheng looked at it, he thought that people like Cheng Che were just lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
