Chapter 802: Defection

"This is my business, it has nothing to do with you," Xia Yue said angrily.

"Yes, it originally had nothing to do with us. I know you have prepared all the materials and hold all the evidence unfavorable to He Zhengye in your hands, all for the sake of forcing his hand one day," Chen Yu said. "But have you considered the consequences of doing this?"

"He Zhengye's wife is from a prestigious family, and he holds a high position and is a direct descendant of the He Clan. In the eyes of outsiders, he is the one who will hold up the sky for the He Clan. If he has a scandal, how can he control the He Group?" Chen Yu stared at Xia Yue. "What's more, between the He Group and you, who do you think he will choose?"

"I think he will choose me," Xia Yue sneered. She stood up holding her son. "Because this is He Zhengye's son."

"Oh, I have a document here, you can take a look," Chen Yu smiled and took out a document. "You have been with He Zhengye for ten years, and you became pregnant eight years ago."

"But during that pregnancy, you were not in the country. After our multi-faceted investigation, we discovered an interesting thing," Chen Yu said. "The child you were carrying, the fetal heartbeat disappeared in the fourth month, development stopped, and you subsequently miscarried."

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Xia Yue was startled. She hugged her son tightly, her palms covered in cold sweat.

"Foreign medical records are all archived," Chen Yu took a document from the file. "The medical record above has your signature. Do you think this could be fake?"

"The child was gone, but nine months later, you successfully gave birth to a child, which is Lele in your arms. This matter is very strange," Chen Yu laughed. "If He Zhengye knew about this, do you guess he would take his son for a paternity test?"

"Slander! You get out immediately, otherwise I'm calling the police," Xia Yue looked furious.

"President Xia, I can understand your desire to climb to the top, but using such methods to get there is a bit despicable, isn't it? This child is not my elder brother's, nor is he yours; he is an orphan you found from somewhere else," He Lingyun said indifferently. "And all the secrets of He Zhengye that you have grasped over these years, he knows them all."

"Given his personality, if he knew you were deceiving him, and that you were a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment, what do you think He Zhengye would do? But he hasn't moved against you. Do you know why?"

He Lingyun's words left Xia Yue completely silent. After a long time, she lowered her head, looking quite dejected. "What do you want?"

"He Zhengye actually knew about these things long ago," Mu Xi said. "My materials were all intercepted from him. The reason he endured and didn't act was because you still had value to be used. If he lets you take the top spot, the first person he will eliminate will likely be you."

"What are you saying? He knows about these things?" Xia Yue hugged her son tightly, her face full of panic.

"Do you think with his intelligence, he wouldn't know? You've been with him for ten years, do you still not understand him at all?" He Lingyun sighed slightly and said, "The reason he didn't say anything is because you still have value to him."

"If, once he has finished using you, what do you think your end will be?"

Xia Yue hugged her son tightly; her internal defenses had already been crushed.

"If you don't believe it, call him now and tell him we are here," He Lingyun took out her phone and handed it to Xia Yue. "Let him get rid of us, wait for him to take the top spot, and then force him to divorce. Bet on your own future. Do you dare?"

Staring fixedly at the phone in He Lingyun's hand, Xia Yue said nothing. After a long time, she raised her head. "I only have one request: after He Zhengye abdicates, I will still be the Vice President of the He Group."

"No problem. Between us, we will act as if nothing ever happened. You will still be the Vice President of the He Group, and I won't give you a cent less than what you are owed," He Lingyun smiled slightly.

In a flash, the day of the 70th birthday of the He Family's Old Madam Li arrived.

The He Family compound is located within the Third Ring Road and is a very large residence. At the main entrance are the two large characters "He Residence" written personally by a certain big figure. That big figure's brushwork was vigorous and powerful, and there are not many of his authentic works left in the world; only an Aristocratic Family could have him write it personally.

Today, the He Family gates were wide open. Although the He Family is an Aristocratic Family, the Old Madam's birthday was celebrated relatively low-key. Except for the direct and collateral descendants of the He Family, almost no one was invited. Of course, because the He Family has a high status in Shengjing and is one of the Three Great Families, many people came uninvited.

At 10:00 AM, a motorcade consisting entirely of S-class vehicles slowly drove to the He Family, and it was He Lingyun, who had not entered the family home for more than ten years, who had arrived.

"Lingyun, you're back," He Zhengye came out to greet her personally.

He Lingyun got out of the car, nodded slightly and said, "Today is Mom's big day, no matter what, I had to come back to see. Xiao Yu, let's go."

He Lingyun waved to the car, and Chen Yu stepped out.

"You came too?" He Zhengye's expression changed slightly when he saw Chen Yu.

"I asked Xiao Yu to come," He Lingyun smiled faintly. "Mom's Alzheimer's is getting worse. Xiao Chen has superb medical skills, perhaps he will have a way."

"Xiao Chen's medical skills are indeed good, but this Alzheimer's is a world-class problem. He may not be able to solve it," He Zhengye's face looked a bit ugly.

He knew the reason for the failure of the operation the night before, and he had also learned of Chen Yu's identity through the Underworld Envoy in the black robe. Today, He Lingyun brought Chen Yu back; they were not here with good intentions.

"President He, please rest assured, I wouldn't do something I wasn't sure about," Chen Yu said indifferently. "I'll go in and see the Old Madam, and there will be results very soon."

"Xiao Yu, let's go in," He Lingyun said indifferently, taking Chen Yu's hand and walking inside.

He Zhengye's expression was gloomy. He turned and shouted, "Silong."

"President He, I am here," a figure flashed behind him, and Silong walked over.

"Today the He Group is closed to visitors. Except for direct and collateral descendants, no one else is to be received. Also, please invite several Martial Ancestors in Shengjing to come over, and notify all major shareholders of the company," He Zhengye said in a deep voice.

"President He, is this to be moved up?" Silong's expression changed slightly.

"That's right, it's to be moved up," He Zhengye said in a deep voice. "Because He Lingyun has already stopped giving me a chance."

"Good, I will go do it immediately," Silong nodded and turned to leave.

Chen Yu accompanied He Lingyun all the way to the backyard, which was the Old Madam's residence.

The Old Madam is already seventy this year. Her spirit looks very good, but she contracted Alzheimer's a few years ago, so she is a bit slow in speaking now and doesn't really recognize people.
