“No matter what, you are still the Young Madam of the Lu family.” Lu Han added with a genuine tone. Guan Tong heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu Han didn’t know anything.
“So, Guan Tong is your cousin?” Lu Han asked.
“Yes, she is.” Guan Tong took a deep breath, and she responded.
“It seems that your parents treat her quite well.” Lu Han said to Guan Tong.
“She’s my cousin, after all.” Although Guan Tong said this, she felt the irony in her heart. She was Lin Tian’s niece, but what did Lin Tian do to her? He sold her out instead of his daughter.
Lu Han looked at the woman in front of him and felt his heartache. It seemed that his plan to acquire the Lin Corporation had to be brought forward and faster.
“Mother, how could this be?” Meanwhile, Lin Fei was on the verge of breaking down in Lin’s family home. She initially thought that Lu Han was here for her, but she did not expect him to come and take Guan Tong back instead of her.
“I still have some questions for you.” Zhang Lin was not particularly clear about what happened yesterday, and she was furious at this moment.
“Enough! What have you two done while you were there?” Although Lin Tian had agreed to let Guan Tong take Lin Fei’s place in the marriage, it didn’t mean that he could tolerate Zhang Lin and Lin Fei’s misdeeds.
“You still dare question what we were up to? Don’t you have any concern for the Lin family’s future?” Zhang Lin saw that Lin Tian was angry at her, and she didn’t want to be stepped over.
Lin Tian snorted coldly. They had been married for so many years, and he still couldn’t wrap his head around his wife’s logic. Even though Zhang Lin said that it was for the Lin family, the truth was she did it all for her wealth and glory. Lin Tian sighed in his heart. He wanted to believe Zhang Lin’s words. He wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt as husband and wife and their years of marriage. Lin Fei was livid at what happened, so she went upstairs. Zhang Lin saw her precious daughter angry and followed her upstairs to calm her down.
“Fei’er, Fei’er…” Zhang Lin closed Lin Fei’s door behind.
“Mother…” Lin Fei let out a sigh with frustration.
“Judging from our current situation, we can’t keep that ugly girl around anymore.” Zhang Lin said quietly.
“Mother, what are you saying?” Lin Fei suddenly raised her head. Zhang Lin looked at Lin Fei and dragged her finger across her neck, and made a gesture of cutting her throat.
Lin Fei’s heart tightened. She understood what her mother meant. She had hated Guan Tong for many years, but she had never thought of letting Guan Tong die. Now that Zhang Lin had said it out loud, Lin Fei felt satisfaction in her heart.
“When do we make our move?” Lin Fei’s eyes flashed with excitement. If Guan Tong was dead, Lu Han might have been interested in her.
“As soon as possible, of course.” Zhang Lin answered in a malicious tone.
“Okay, mother. We will succeed.” Lin Fei held onto Zhang Lin’s hand tightly. The events of the past two days had dealt a massive blow to her. She hated Guan Tong to the core.
“Fei’er, don’t worry. When that ugly girl dies, whether it’s the position of the Lu family’s Young Madam or the Guan family’s heirloom, they’ll all be ours.” For her daughter’s happiness, Zhang Lin had to succeed.
“What exactly is the Guan family’s heirloom?” Lin Fei had always heard Zhang Lin say this, but she had no idea what it was. The sick Grandmother doesn’t even have a place to live. What heirloom could she possibly have?
Zhang Lin had not seen it either, but she knew Guan Tong must have it.
At that moment, Guan Tong felt that something was very wrong with Lu Han, but she couldn’t tell where it was. Moreover, she also felt that something was wrong with herself too. Guan Tong wasn’t sure if it was because she had been with Lu Han for too long. Sometimes she couldn’t help but be moved by Lu Han’s words.
“When you go back, maybe you could give me an acupuncture session.” Lu Han tilted his head and looked at the girl beside him.
“Sure, of course.” Guan Tong agreed. She gave Lu Han acupuncture sessions and studied medical books every day for the past few days. She felt that her skills had improved a lot.
After going back, Lu Han took a bath in hot water while Guan Tong stayed outside to read more medical books. Guan Tong looked at the patterns on those books and fell into deep thought. Although her neighbor’s grandfather taught her medical knowledge, this medical book was given to her by her grandmother. Guan Tong had always thought that her grandmother was an ordinary old woman, but why would an ordinary woman like her own a book like this? She felt that she may have misjudged her grandmother’s character.
Thinking of her grandmother, Guan Tong thought of her lying unconscious on the hospital bed and could not help but feel even more dispirited. No matter what secrets her grandmother had, she would always do what was best for Guan Tong. Grandmother had always painstakingly taken care of her with great hardship and was her only remaining family member. Guan Tong knew that saving her grandmother was her most important goal. She couldn’t bear to be in this world without her grandmother.
Guan Tong shook her head and brushed away the thoughts in her mind. She started rereading her grandmother’s medical book. She wasn’t only looking to heal Lu Han, but she was also looking for a cure for her grandmother.
Lu Han saw this scene after he came out of the bath. The girl was so invested in reading the medical book in her hand, her neck was as beautiful as a swan and was slightly bent forward, and her hair was rolling down, framing her cheeks..
