Chapter 1842: Can You Help Me?
"Can you help me?" Zhang Yu gritted his teeth, looking at Chen Yu with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"Helping you is no problem, and to me, it's just a small effort, but what's in it for me?" Chen Yu asked.
"What... do you want?" Zhang Yu hesitated for a moment, looking at Chen Yu.
His gaze was intense; he felt that the young man before him was extraordinary because he could tell at a glance that he was feigning sleep.
Having lain there for twenty years, his muscles had atrophied somewhat, and lying motionless in bed, he looked like a dying man.
Since Chen Yu could see that he was faking it, perhaps he could help him.
"Money? Power? Women?" Chen Yu said, "I'm afraid those are the only things you can offer me, right?"
"That's right, I think that people... especially men, coming into this world, only seek these things." Zhang Yu nodded heavily.
He was a genius in the business world and naturally understood human nature; he felt these were things no man could refuse and that all men craved. Could it be that Chen Yu didn't like them?
"What you're talking about are the pursuits of ordinary people, which are different from mine." Chen Yu shook his head and said, "Besides, I already have everything you mentioned, perhaps even more than you. Indeed, your offer holds no attraction for me."
Zhang Yu fell into Silence, and after a long while, he said slowly, "Then what do you want? Or rather, what is your pursuit? Tell me, and I will do my best to satisfy you."
"Saying these things to me is meaningless," Chen Yu said, shaking his head. "Because your pursuits are not mine, and I have no interest in what you seek."
"Then... how can you help me?" Zhang Yu looked deeply at Chen Yu.
"How do you know I can definitely help you?" Chen Yu asked.
"Because there is something different about you. From that, I can tell you can help me." Zhang Yu raised his head to look at Chen Yu.
"Intuition?" Chen Yu glanced at him.
"Yes, intuition. Just like when I was feigning sleep earlier; if someone else had seen through me and told me to get up, I certainly wouldn't have responded, but your voice was different," Zhang Yu said earnestly.
"What is different about my voice?" Chen Yu smiled.
"Your voice has an affinity," Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said. "This affinity makes me trust you involuntarily, and although I haven't had much contact with you, you possess Qi power, which is very strong."
"Well, well, a vegetable for over a decade has gained the ability to read people," Chen Yu grinned and said. "That's right, I am different from others."
"And if I can't help you, no one in this world can, but right now I can't find a reason to help you," Chen Yu laughed.
"You must have come here with a purpose, right?" Zhang Yu said with a glimmer of hope. "If you find evidence for me proving that my car accident back then was because of Li Tangyan..."
"And clear out some of her subordinates so I can smoothly take back what is mine, then I will listen to you from now on."
"Are you willing to listen to me?" Chen Yu asked.
"There is nothing unwilling about it. I think it is perfectly normal to rely on the strong," Zhang Yu laughed. "On the contrary, if I were to have everything taken away by that woman and just watch helplessly, that would be what I'm unwilling to accept."
"You are quite interesting," Chen Yu nodded. "Alright, you've barely convinced me. I'll help you."
"Mr. Chen, thank you." Zhang Yu was overjoyed and slowly knelt on the ground. "From today on, this Life of mine is yours."
"Keep your own Life; I don't want it because it's useless," Chen Yu said. "If I wanted your Life, it would be like pulling you from one fire pit into another. I wouldn't do such a deceitful thing."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Zhang Yu nodded and stood up from the ground.
"You need me to help you find evidence?" Chen Yu asked. "You know that this happened over ten years ago; finding evidence again will likely not be easy."
"I know, but no matter what, I want the world to see her true face," Zhang Yu gritted his teeth. "This woman has been playing the role of a devoted wife all along."
"She packaged herself perfectly; everyone thinks she is a woman who is responsible to her husband and never leaves his side. But who would know that she often brings different men in front of me to do those filthy things?" Zhang Yu said through gritted teeth.
"She likes to be toyed with by other men right in front of me, shouting to see what I can do about it..."
"Has she become that perverted?" Chen Yu felt it was somewhat unbelievable.
"Yes. I ask myself, I treated her well in the past, but her actions are truly disgusting." The expression on Zhang Yu's face was somewhat twisted.
Although he had been in a coma, he was perfectly clear about everything happening in the outside world.
He admitted that he used to be a bit chauvinistic, but Li Tangyan's actions made him hate her to the bone.
"That makes it easier; there is professional recording equipment," Chen Yu said. "Next time she brings a man over, can't you just record it?"
"I can." Zhang Yu nodded heavily. "But there are a few executives in the company who are her confidants. If these executives aren't removed, my future path will still be quite difficult."
"Company matters are much easier to handle. Just tell me who you want to disappear," Chen Yu said indifferently.
"Do we not... need to investigate?" Tang Qing was slightly startled. She felt that even if Li Tangyan was in the wrong, one shouldn't kill the innocent indiscriminately.
"No need," Chen Yu spread his hands. "Do you really think Li Tangyan's confidants are good people? They all had a hand in persecuting Zhang Yu. Solving this simply and crudely will save us a lot of time."
Tang Qing stopped talking. If it were before, she would definitely have accused Chen Yu with a sense of moral superiority.
But after spending this time with Chen Yu, she understood what human nature was really like.
So now, no matter what decision Chen Yu made, she felt it was normal, and those who could follow Li Tangyan to betray their former boss certainly weren't good people.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen. Every time that woman attends a banquet, she brings a man back. She should be back soon."
"This is the equipment; it can record audio and video. Just press it." Chen Yu took out a small device and gave it to Zhang Yu.
This thing was given to him by Su Yan. He didn't usually need it, but he hadn't expected it to come in handy now.
After Chen Yu and Tang Qing finished discussing the matter, they quickly retreated and hid in the shadows.
Chen Yu waved his hand, and the bodyguards whose consciousness he had controlled immediately recovered.
