Chapter 530: Ruthless Sun Weiwei

Hearing his daughter's words, Sun Licheng's gaze narrowed?

He looked at his daughter doubtfully?

"Are you sure? Do you have confidence?"

Sun Weiwei's beautiful eyes were deep and tranquil as she nodded, saying, "Don't worry, Dad, I have absolute confidence; tonight, Lin Yuan won't escape my grasp—I guarantee he will obediently obey us."

Hearing this, Sun Licheng took a deep breath, he nodded and said, "Good, Weiwei, then this matter is entrusted to you. As your father, I believe in you…"

……

At six in the evening, Su Group Wind Control Department.

Most employees had already left work.

Lin Yuan tidied up the experimental data on the desk, just picked up his coat and was about to leave.

His phone suddenly rang; he picked it up and looked? The screen flashed the three characters "Sun Weiwei".

Lin Yuan frowned, hesitated a moment, then still pressed the answer key.

"Lin Yuan, it's me." Sun Weiwei's voice came from the earpiece, carrying a barely perceptible tremor, "Are you off work? I'm waiting for you in the underground parking lot; I'd like to invite you for a meal and chat a bit."

"Sorry, I have something else tonight, next time." Lin Yuan refused without even thinking.

He was very clear about Sun Weiwei's intention and did not want to get further entangled with her.

"You have something on?" At the other end of the phone, Sun Weiwei froze for a moment, her voice tinged with grievance, "Lin Yuan, is our relationship really not worth mentioning? Come out, just do me this favor; between us, we ought to have a closure."

Hearing her aggrieved tone, Lin Yuan felt a bit soft-hearted.

Lin Yuan held the phone and asked, "Closure? What kind of closure do you want?"

On the other end of the phone, Sun Weiwei spoke softly, "Our relationship, our feelings, ought to have a closure, shouldn't they? Some things, some words, need to be made clear, the talk needs to be opened. After all, you and I have been involved; I don't want any entanglement with you. Tonight, come out, let's talk it out."

Lin Yuan had originally intended to refuse.

But after a few seconds of silence, he finally relented: "Send me the address; I'll be there in half an hour."

After hanging up, Lin Yuan rubbed his forehead.

Soon, Sun Weiwei sent Lin Yuan the restaurant address for their evening dinner.

Looking at the address Sun Weiwei sent.

For some reason, Lin Yuan's heart... faintly had a bad premonition?

But, thinking of the word "closure," he still turned and walked toward the elevator.

His relationship with Sun Weiwei is somewhat complicated and chaotic; this relationship indeed needs to be severed.

Some relationships, if they should be cut, cut them; if not cut, they become chaotic.

But Lin Yuan did not know……

What awaits him on this trip is not a dignified farewell……

but a carefully planned trap.

……

That evening at seven o'clock.

Downtown……Fragrant Incense Pavilion Restaurant.

Inside a private booth.

Warm yellow light shone on the redwood tables and chairs, making them look especially elegant.

Sun Weiwei arrived ten minutes early, wearing a white dress, with delicate light makeup, looking more gentle than she did at the office.

On the table sat a pot of freshly brewed lemon water.

She had specifically instructed the waiter to brew it at room temperature.

She knew Lin Yuan liked lemon water, so she made it specially.

While waiting, Sun Weiwei's pretty face was complex.

She opened her phone, looking at the photos of her and Lin Yuan secretly dating over meals.

Looking at the photos, Sun Weiwei's thoughts sank into complexity……

Lin Yuan was the only one willing to jump into the river to save her.

Originally, she had deeply fallen in love with this man.

But, thinking of how, due to factional struggles…… their relationship has become stiff%

A hint of gloom flashed in Sun Weiwei's beautiful eyes.

But then, a hint of ruthlessness replaced it in her beautiful eyes.

"Lin Yuan, I hope you will cooperate well tonight." Sun Weiwei's voice was deep and low as she murmured to herself.

She took out a small glass bottle from her purse……

Inside the glass bottle was a colorless, transparent liquid.

Sun Weiwei hesitated for two seconds, then poured the liquid into one of the cups, gently swirling it until the liquid completely blended with the lemon water.

Sun Weiwei continued to wait for several more minutes.

"Squeak~!"

With a sound, the private booth door was pushed open.

Lin Yuan walked in wearing a casual suit, his posture upright.

Lin Yuan saw Sun Weiwei and politely nodded: "Sorry to keep you waiting."

Sun Weiwei gave a self-mocking cold laugh: "Now even your attitude toward me is this cold?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan was taken aback; he sat at the table and sighed, "Weiwei, our positions differ; I hope you can understand some things."

Sun Weiwei's beautiful eyes were complex as she glanced at him.

Then Sun Weiwei signaled the waiter to serve the dishes.

The server carried plate after plate of dishes and began to serve them.

Sun Weiwei proactively poured lemon water for Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan didn't think much of it, picked up the lemon water, and took a sip.

Sun Weiwei's beautiful eyes kept secretly staring at Lin Yuan.

Only after seeing him drink the lemon water did Sun Weiwei finally relax.

Sun Weiwei remained silent for a moment, then finally spoke.

Sun Weiwei's tone carried a hint of grievance: "Lin Yuan, I know saying this now is abrupt, but I really have no choice. My father's hair has turned quite white lately because of Shen Nan Zhi's defection to Su Monong."

"Su Monong, relying on the support of the R&D department, is targeting us everywhere in the company. If this continues, our family will truly be forced into a desperate situation." Sun Weiwei pleaded.

Lin Yuan's gaze was complex: "Weiwei, why bother? I've already advised you not to keep fighting Director Su. If you two could get along, none of this would have happened, right?"

Sun Weiwei's eyes were complex as she bit her lip and said, "You say just stop fighting and it's over? Things aren't that simple."

"My father's faction and Su Monong's faction have long-held grudges. How could a single sentence from you possibly stop it now?"

Lin Yuan shook his head and sighed: "If you just set aside your interests, sit down and talk, you could reconcile. You're both from the same company—why make things so stiff?"

Lin Yuan still wanted to advise.

If Sun Weiwei and her father could reconcile with Su Monong, that would be best.

But Sun Weiwei shook her head: "Impossible—asking my father to give up so many interests and surrender to Su Monong is absolutely out of the question."

Sun Weiwei bit her lip, stood up, and walked to Lin Yuan's side.

She bent slightly, her hands lightly gripping Lin Yuan's arm……

In Sun Weiwei's eyes lay a plea: "Lin Yuan, I know you're currently a rising star in Su Monong's eyes, and she's grooming you as a confidante. Lin Yuan, I'm begging you—help me once, help my family once. This time, my family truly has no way out; I can only rely on you……"

Sun Weiwei said in a pitiful voice.

Lin Yuan, helpless, asked: "How do you want me to help you? I'm part of Su Monong's faction—what could I possibly do for you?"

Sun Weiwei bit her lip and whispered: "You don't have to do anything dangerous; just occasionally leak some of Su Monong's strategic moves, or speak a few fair words for my father at the board meeting, help us find leverage against Su Monong, and apply some pressure—don't let her wipe us out completely, okay?"

Lin Yuan gently pulled his arm back and leaned his body against the chair.

Lin Yuan shook his head, his tone firm: "Weiwei, sorry, I can't help you with this. I can't betray Director Su. It's a matter of professional ethics."

"Why?" Sun Weiwei bit her lip, her eyes reddening, feeling unwilling.

"Between us, we've already gone through so much…… I, I even gave you my most precious thing…… Now my family is in trouble, and you just stand by and do nothing?"

"Weiwei, sorry, I can help you with other things, but I can't do anything that violates professional ethics." Lin Yuan's tone softened a bit, but his stance remained unchanged.

Sun Weiwei bit her lip and stubbornly said: "How is what my father did immoral? Are you, Lin Yuan, so clean yourself?"

Lin Yuan shook his head and sighed: "Your father's power‑grabbing tactics were never honorable; Director Su checks him only to keep the group stable. I'm part of Director Su's camp—I can't betray her, nor can I let down her trust. I truly can't help you."

"Can't help?" Sun Weiwei looked at Lin Yuan's unmoving stance, a flicker of disappointment crossing her eyes.

In her heart…… the last shred of hope also shattered.

Sun Weiwei gave a self‑mocking cold laugh……

On her stunningly beautiful face, the gentleness…… gradually faded, replaced by…… a resolve to burn one's boats.

"Lin Yuan, I never wanted to resort to this, but you forced me." Sun Weiwei bit her lip, a flash of ruthlessness in her eyes.

Lin Yuan furrowed his brows: "Weiwei, what do you mean?"

Sun Weiwei's eyes turned icy and resolute; she slowly walked to the private room door and then slowly locked it from the inside.

Huh?

Seeing Sun Weiwei suddenly lock the door, Lin Yuan froze?

Lin Yuan's heart gave a jolt??

A bad premonition welled up.

Lin Yuan stood up, sighing as he stepped forward to advise: "Weiwei, don't do this—can't we talk things out properly?"

But just as Lin Yuan took a step, he suddenly felt his legs go weak, his whole body's muscles turning soft……

Immediately after, Lin Yuan felt light‑headed……

Wait!

This feeling isn't right!

Lin Yuan shook his head hard, but his vision grew increasingly blurry, and even his sight started to double.

Lin Yuan's face turned weak as he looked at Sun Weiwei in surprise.

Sun Weiwei stood to the side, her eyes cold as she stared at him.

Lin Yuan instantly realized: "Weiwei, you…… you…… put something in the water?!"

Sun Weiwei's eyes were icy as she slowly said: "Lin Yuan, it's you who forced me……"

Sun Weiwei bit her lip and said: "I originally wanted to talk things out with you properly, to give you one last chance……"

"Heh…… but you insist on being obstinate and unresponsive. Since you won't give me even a chance, I…… can only apologize to you."

"Sun Weiwei, you're really crazy……"

Lin Yuan gritted his teeth, his voice weak.

He reached with his hand toward his clothing pocket……

That held his silver needle kit.

Lin Yuan intended to take out the silver needles and use acupuncture to suppress the poison in his body.

But as Lin Yuan's fingers just touched the silver needle box in his pocket…… Sun Weiwei had already hurried forward.

In Sun Weiwei's hand, unbeknownst when, appeared a black electric baton.

"Zzzap……!" Sun Weiwei switched on the electric baton, the high‑current sound especially piercing in the private room!

Sun Weiwei unhesitatingly pressed the electric baton against Lin Yuan's side!

Zizz! That instant, Lin Yuan's whole body shuddered, electric current instantly spread through his limbs and bones!

His body, already gone limp from the drug's effect…… now completely lost support!

Thud!

Lin Yuan collapsed limp to the ground, his fingers could no longer hold onto whatever was in his pocket.

Sun Weiwei looked down at him from above, her high-heeled shoes straddling his body.

Then Sun Weiwei bent over, pulled out the silver needle box from his pocket, and casually threw it onto the ground.

Snap! The wooden box burst open, and the slender silver needles scattered across the ground.

Sun Weiwei pressed the tips of her high heels over several of the silver needles.

She watched Lin Yuan lying helpless on the ground, a flicker of triumphant pleasure flashing in her eyes.

Sun Weiwei sneered, "Lin Yuan, stop struggling—this drug I had someone specially prepare, combining Chinese and Western medicine, with a large amount of the Western hypnotic drug Chen Fen added; you don't even have the strength to lift your hand now."

Lin Yuan looked at her, shocked, "Sun Weiwei, what exactly are you trying to do…?"
