Chapter 513: Can You Protect Me?

~6 min read 1,088 words

He stood before Jiang Cheng, each word ringing with force.

Jiang Cheng locked eyes with him, somewhat doubtful, asking: "Why are you saying this to me in my presence?" Jiang Cheng slightly raised his brow, naturally wanting to hear an answer from him.

He hesitated a moment, then explained: "I have no intention of going along with them, because I am fully aware of how crucial everything I now possess is to me—and there must be absolutely no mistake here."

"If I end up like someone else in the end, I know full well that I could very well wind up with nothing! Even though I now could have many things, because of certain people's existence I would end up watching myself lose everything—don't you think that's especially painful?"

"After all——"

Overnight, he fell from heaven to hell.

Such a thing, if it happened to anyone, would surely be a harsh blow.

Now, he knows his behavior is somewhat repulsive, but if he weren't driven to desperation, how could he act this way?

So, he is now seeking a way out for himself!

"I won't foolishly oppose you, and I don't hope this will have a major impact on me!" He spoke slowly, his gaze earnestly meeting Jiang Cheng's, saying many things in front of Jiang Cheng.

He hoped everything would go smoothly.

But——he also felt somewhat nervous inside, fearing that in the end this might not turn out as he wished!

His inner panic, he struggled to calm.

He looked at Jiang Cheng, "I just don't know what you think now, and whether you'd believe what I'm saying?" He felt cold sweat breaking out all over, hopefully looking at Jiang Cheng, hoping Jiang Cheng would cooperate with him.

Jiang Cheng leisurely glanced at him, not in a hurry to answer his question.

He merely asked: "Aren't you afraid that if these things of yours are discovered, it will…… absolutely bring you no benefit!"

"Even, you might very well be driven out by the other side, and the final result would still be the most miserable kind!"

"No!"

Lin Feng shook his head: "I know full well that as long as I firmly stand by your side now, and do nothing harmful to you, you will surely support me and even secretly give me a little help—it's impossible for you to just watch me get into trouble alone!"

He was utterly serious.

After his words fell, even Jiang Cheng at that moment couldn't help but chuckle.

Jiang Cheng said: "You're quite a smart person, knowing to choose me now—your situation isn't too dire yet!"

"But my current abilities are limited, and I can't guarantee that the upcoming things will truly let you go smoothly and improve!"

He slightly furrowed his brow, his words coming slowly.

Looking at the man before him, already over forty, he now placed all his hopes on Jiang Cheng.

He hoped to win the gamble.

Jiang Cheng merely raised his eyebrows: "I must tell you here that I cannot guarantee these things will go smoothly, and——I will absolutely not bring you any trouble." Jiang Cheng spoke bluntly, giving him the first warning.

Upon hearing Jiang Cheng's words, his mindset collapsed.

He forced a smile: "Could it be…… that there's no hope at all for these things?"

"And I would really have to watch things spread bit by bit, even if during this period I strive hard to change, even to alter all of this——yet I could only watch them continue to worsen?"

He had thought he could find a way out again.

But judging from the situation on the spot, the matter is truly too serious!

Even Jiang Cheng before him now cannot guarantee his safety. At that moment, his world went pitch black.

Jiang Cheng, however, remained silent—silence is golden.

Jiang Cheng looked at the person before him and reminded: "You'd better not pin all your hopes on me. Once you place your hopes on me, these consequences might not be something I can bear."

"As for all subsequent developments, I can tell you quite clearly that…… I fundamentally cannot guarantee this will go smoothly!" Jiang Cheng spoke bluntly, looking at the person before him, saying whatever he had to say. Throughout, he kept reminding the other party.

Lin Feng hesitated repeatedly, then finally mustered courage.

"Forget it!"

"I've said everything I needed to say, and I've laid all the information before you. Now I regret it, but things can't go back to how they were. So from now on, I will firmly stand by your side."

"Let's cooperate well; I'll tell you everything I know in detail. Then please think of a way, see if there's any other method to resolve this—okay?" He was very earnest.

Now it's indeed only possible to pin hopes on Jiang Cheng.!

He longed for everything to go smoothly and for all matters to develop toward a good direction.

Thus, he stood before Jiang Cheng, with a serious and careful expression, discussing these matters with Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng: "……"

Originally I thought this guy would give up what he's holding because of this, but now it seems he's quite determined to cooperate with me.

Jiang Cheng laughed and cried at once.

However, under these circumstances, Jiang Cheng could only reluctantly agree to him.

"You've said all this and brought me so much good news; if I didn't cooperate with you, that would be rather indecent."

"So then, please tell me all the information you know in detail!" Jiang Cheng's attitude was sincere, looking at the person before him with no intention of mocking him.

Every word and sentence was spoken with such sincerity.

The other party felt Jiang Cheng's kindness.

In an instant, hot tears welled in his eyes.

Before Jiang Cheng, he excitedly gave thanks.

"Thank you so much!"

"I originally thought you'd definitely not believe what I said this time, but I never imagined you'd still stand by my side—and even promise to help me with many things." He was momentarily emotionally excited, looking at Jiang Cheng.

Finally——

He bowed deeply toward Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng's mood was rather calm; suddenly being bowed to in person, he felt a bit embarrassed and quickly stopped the other: "Alright, alright, this is just some small matter, not anything particularly big—why are you suddenly so worked up telling me this?"

He felt embarrassed too!

He merely agreed to him, and didn't print anything else.

Moreover——no one can guarantee that something else won't happen soon. (End of chapter)
