Chapter 372: The Traitor Is By My Side

~7 min read 1,385 words

Jin Xilan, Yun Qifeng's assistant, went back under Lin Feng's threat.

She knew that once Lin Feng had set his sights on her, escaping was impossible.

It was better to return and, under Lin Feng's arrangement, be a proper assistant.

After getting into the car, Bai Ying appeared very silent.

Lin Feng also drove silently, taking her to the gate of her workplace.

"About today's matter... I'm not using you..."

Lin Feng explained.

Bai Ying unbuckled her seatbelt and planted a kiss on Lin Feng's face.

Then she got out of the car and waved at Lin Feng.

She had never considered Lin Feng's explanation.

Afraid Lin Feng would worry about her, she gave him a small comfort.

Today, she indeed witnessed an exciting game between men.

If it were a woman instead, who knows how vain it would be at this point!

One should know that Lin Feng and Yun Qifeng are the topmost men in this world.

The two of them schemed against each other for her.

In the end, Lin Feng still had the superior skill.

It seemed that Yun Qifeng voluntarily jumped into the trap.

But in reality, the process was a complex and meticulous scheme.

Any tiny slip, Yun Qifeng would not step into the trap Lin Feng set.

"Wait!"

Lin Feng called out to Bai Ying.

Then Lin Feng got out of the car, took a box from the car's ice compartment, and handed it to Bai Ying.

"What is it?"

Bai Ying felt the box was heavy and asked curiously, "What is it?"

Lin Feng smiled and said, "It's Tai Sui! Very nourishing. Your brother is not yet forty and already has a white hair; take it back to replenish him."

After Yun Qifeng's incident, in Bai Ying's mind, Tai Sui had already become synonymous with a harmful poison.

Take it back for her brother to eat...

Lin Feng laughed and explained, "Don't worry! Those allergic to this are one in ten thousand. If it's made into a stew, even an allergic person can eat it without issue."

"You seem to know a lot about this?"

Lin Feng smiled, "I saw a medical book at Professor Shu's place; it recorded this. Many things, once cooked, are harmless when eaten."

"Hmm!"

Bai Ying nodded.

Evening of the 16th.

Bai Ying went again to her brother Bai Jun's house.

She placed the box containing Tai Sui on the table.

"What is it?"

Bai Jun opened the box and asked curiously.

Bai Ying explained, "It's Tai Sui, also called Meat Lingzhi, a great tonic!"

Bai Jun's eyes widened.

In his eyes was surprise, "This is a fine thing!"

Bai Ying, however, was puzzled, "Brother, aren't you afraid!?"

Bai Jun smiled, "It's not like I haven't eaten it before; back in the day, I could... on your sister-in-law's leg..."

He almost let it slip.

Clearly, Bai Jun was very delighted.

He chuckled for a while before putting the Tai Sui into the refrigerator.

After sitting down, Bai Jun's smile vanished.

His expression grew somewhat solemn.

"I know about Yun Qifeng's matter; I warned him long ago not to act recklessly, but I didn't expect..."

Having said that, Bai Jun sighed.

The older generations of the two families had a good relationship.

Now that the Yun Family has fallen to this state, Bai Jun feels somewhat sad.

"Come, tell me how that kid plotted against Lin Feng."

After composing himself, Bai Jun asked with curiosity.

Bai Ying frowned and said, "I only know a rough outline..."

After she finished, Bai Jun was silent for a moment, then let out a sigh.

Although Bai Ying's explanation was brief.

With his intellect, he mentally simulated Lin Feng's plan in full.

"Impressive!"

Bai Jun exclaimed, his face full of admiration.

Yun Qifeng woke up.

After opening his eyes, he was shocked to find his whole body numb, unable to move.

He tried to say something, opened his mouth, but only a "yi‑ya‑ya" sound came out.

His vocal cords were no longer under his control.

He was more than familiar with this situation.

His father, elder uncle, and second uncle were all like this.

No guessing needed; this is the reaction after eating Tai Sui.

The dish he ate, called "Family Reunion", was actually meat Lingzhi!

The four characters "Family Reunion" are indeed ironic for Yun Qifeng now.

Now the whole family is lying down; isn't that a family reunion?

That thing is already rare; even the rich who search tirelessly might never find it.

How did Lin Feng obtain it?

He was careless before, too reckless…

Had he known, he wouldn't have done it in the first place.

His father's words were right; if he doesn't change his nature, trouble will come sooner or later.

After a bout of regret, Yun Qifeng thought of Lin Feng again.

It seems Lin Feng had long known that Zhao Yuwan's car accident was arranged by himself.

Then he set up this scheme.

The hateful part is that he voluntarily rushed over, trying to force Lin Feng to compromise, only to fall into a massive trap.

Afterwards, he even felt smug.

But the question remains: how did Lin Feng locate the Tai Sui in such a short time?

At that moment, the ward door opened.

Assistant Jin Xilan walked in.

Jin Xilan waved away the attendants, then locked the door and sat down beside Yun Qifeng.

"Boss, this must have been done by Lin Feng…"

Jin Xilan frowned and said.

Yun Qifeng blinked once.

"Boss, I will arrange the best medical resources to treat you; you will definitely recover!"

Jin Xilan's gaze was resolute.

Yun Qifeng blinked twice.

"Boss, can you speak?"

Jin Xilan asked.

Yun Qifeng blinked twice.

In fact, this method of communication is familiar to both Yun Qifeng and Jin Xilan.

Yun Qifeng and his father Yun Shen communicate this way.

Of course, many times Yun Qifeng ignores his father's opinion.

"Boss, we must take revenge!"

Jin Xilan gritted his teeth, saying with a hateful look.

Yun Qifeng blinked once, indicating agreement.

Revenge is now the only motivation that keeps him alive.

"Then shall I arrange it right away?"

Jin Xilan asked.

Yun Qifeng blinked once.

This mode of communication is exhausting.

As an assistant, Jin Xilan has many matters to raise.

Then Yun Qifeng uses blinking again, like answering a true‑false question, to indicate yes or no.

Of course, besides that, there is another method: using blinks and Morse code to convey what he wants to say.

It's not hard to learn.

Once Yun Qifeng's body recovers a bit more, he can do this.

But by then, he will have no chance…

After Yun Qifeng fell asleep, Jin Xilan finally opened the door and left.

Two Biao Biao stood outside the door.

Jin Xilan instructed, "From now on, aside from medical staff, no one may enter."

"Yes!"

The two Biao Biao immediately nodded.

Morning of the 17th.

The parking lot outside Ronald Hospital filled with many luxury cars.

Many business magnates, movie stars, and the like arrived at the hospital to visit Yun Qifeng.

In name, they are visiting.

Their real purpose is to learn Yun Qifeng's current condition.

Over the years, these people's capital has become deeply tied to the Yun Family's assets.

If Yun Qifeng meets with an accident and can no longer handle affairs, their future will also face uncertainty.

Some people were overly worried; as soon as the stock market opened today, many dumped their holdings for cash.

This caused the stock index to fall for no reason, sparking some panic among investors.

Yet Yun Qifeng never saw these people.

His heart was already filled with hatred.

"Boss, Lao Liao is missing..."

Jin Xilan told Yun Qifeng the news about that middle-aged man beside him.

"Should we immediately take care of Lao Liao's men..."

Jin Xilan made a throat-slitting gesture.

Yun Qifeng blinked.

Jin Xilan said: "The next target is Chen Yingqiu, that country girl; tomorrow I'll let you see the video of her mishap. Boss, you must pull through—if you're gone, I'm doomed too!"

Yun Qifeng blinked several times in a row, showing his agreement with Jin Xilan.

He still didn't know that the woman who had been with him for many years right before him had already betrayed him.
