Chereads / Twisted Fate: Unexpected Love / Chapter 9 - Her Shield

Chapter 9 - Her Shield

Li Jun heard the deep and dark voice of his uncle and was surprised that his uncle was standing up for Shen Yi. Didn't they hate each other?

"I'm sorry uncle, I was just trying to clear my aunt misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?"Li Lingyun asked.

Li Jun smiled and said "My aunt here thinks that I killed Lin Yan which isn't true. Even you must know how much I loved my wife, right?"

Li Lingyun looked at Fang Min who felt no shame and said "Of course, the proof of how much you love your wife is standing in front of me."

He knew it. Li Lingyun must have been the one to instigate Li An against him. But like his grandfather always said, he may underestimate anyone from the Li family but he should never underestimate Li Lingyun. He should be calm until everything in the Li family becomes his.

"Fang Min and I have been dating long before I got married to Lin Yan. I met her again a year ago and I found out I had a five years old daughter with her."

"And you decided to once again start your relationship by cheating on your wife you claim to love. Did Lin Yan ever did anything to deserve your betrayal." Lin Yan asked as she tried her best not to burst in anger.

Li Lingyun glance at Shen Yi briefly and wondered why she was getting affected by the situation. Personally he did not care, he just finds Lin Yan life to be pitiful but why does Shen Yi who has never even spoken much to Lin Yan care about whether Li Jun cheated on her or not.

"It was Lin Yan who came between us and besides they have been married for three years without a child, not only do I have a daughter but every soon I will be giving the Li family an heir." Fang Min said proudly.

"An heir? What makes you think that the Li family doesn't have an heir. If I remember correctly, I do have a daughter. So are you saying that an illegitimate child will be able to fight with my daughter on inheritance. Aren't you dreaming too much for a mistress?" Lin Yan said mockingly.

Li Jun and Fang Min darkened at her words. Everyone could sense the mocking in those words. Li Jun looked at Shen Yi and thought of how he has made a mistake. He has never seen Shen Yi as a threat but indeed he has seen Li Xiao as a threat, after all everyone in country D knew that the daughter of Li Lingyun is the apple of Old master Li eyes.

Li Lingyun on the other hand was silent. None could guess his thoughts because his facial expression gave nothing away.

"Whatever you do with your life is your business but ensure you don't drag the Li family name down. You may be the vice president of the Li corporation but a mistake from you and you will be gone."

"Yes uncle, I will never do anything to shame the Li family."

"Don't bother. You have already done that, just ensure the world doesn't know of it. Let's go Shen Yi."

Lin Yan looked at the despicable man she once had feelings for and his mistress who held her head with pride just because she was pregnant and she knew a family like the Li will never allow their bloodline to ever be called illegitimate, she wanted to do something, but before she could think of anything else, she felt a hand grabbed her wrist and dragged her outside.

Li Lingyun looked at Shen Yi, he saw the anger and hatred in her eyes when she was looking at Li Jun and he wondered if Li Jun had done something to her that he was unaware of. "Never expose your emotions in front of your enemies."

"Huh?" Lin Yan asked as she was confused on why Li Lingyun will tell her that until he said

"I could see the hatred and anger in your eyes when you were looking at Li Jun and Fang Min but I don't understand why? Did Li Jun did something to you that I am unaware of?"

No, Li Lingyun can never find out that I am not Shen Yi, if not I will never be able to make both Li Jun and Fang Min pay for what they have done to me. This were the thought of Lin Yan, from wanting to live peacefully with her new identity to her thought being filled with revenge. Before there was a little hope that the conversation she heard at Li Lingyun office was not true, she believed that even though Li Jun cheated on her, he still loved her but now she could see that it was her who didn't want to let go, even when she wanted to pretend as if she was blind, the world refused for her to be blind. Yes, perhaps the reason she was given another chance was not to live peacefully but to have revenge. Revenge against those who had hurt her, against those who has always mocked her, against those who betrayed her and at that moment she knew that the only way to get this revenge is to use the man in front of her.

Li Lingyun a man who has control on not only the economic of the country but even on the president himself. Yes, this man was perfect to be her shield.

"Li Lingyun, let's start again." Lin Yan said as she stretch out her hand as a sign of peace.

Li Lingyun has always been able to read people but right now, he was unable to read this woman in front him. What could she be planning? With that thought in mind, Li Lingyun said "If you really begin to treat Li Xiao like your daughter and give her the love she deserves then we can start again."

Lin Yan smiled and said "Deal."
