After Being Betrayed, I Married a Tycoon in a Flash-Chapter 988: Honey, Help Me Out

"No way, darling, you have to help us." Ye Shu tightly held Sheng Shaochen’s hand and said, "Your wife was almost harmed. Can you really stand by and watch?"

Sheng Shaochen replied, "I’ve already given you the Life and Death Token. What more do you need me to do?"

Ye Shu took Sheng Shaochen’s hand, pressed it against her face, and said, "Darling, without your help, this matter is truly troublesome."

Ou Linlin was puzzled, "Shu, since we already know it’s Aunt Jie, that old woman, who is behind it, why not just take her down? I can go myself, as long as the Old Mansion’s bodyguards don’t interfere, see if I can beat that old woman to death!"

"Ahem!" Sun Nanjue said in a low voice, "You fool, the matter involves Ah Chen’s mother, Bai Yueru. If Bai Yueru comes out to protect her, what will you do?" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Ye Shu said, "Actually, I can be sure, the mastermind behind all these recent events is Aunt Jie. Mrs. Sheng is just being used as a pawn. The reason I don’t want you to act rashly is to say, Aunt Jie is not that simple. First, there was the timed fire device, then the manipulation of the ancestral hall puzzle, using incense soaked in potion that caused a disulfiram-like reaction in my body, almost killing me without a trace. Do you think all these things are really the kind of schemes a fifty-something old woman like Aunt Jie could come up with on her own?"

An Zhe said, "Now that you mention it, I also think there must be a bigger mastermind behind Aunt Jie. If we don’t find that mastermind, simply dealing with Aunt Jie would be a stopgap measure. The mastermind could still send others to frame us."

Ye Shu blinked her beautiful big eyes at Sheng Shaochen, "I’m begging you, darling, without your cooperation, it’s very difficult to have the effect of shaking the mountain to scare the tiger and lure the snake out of its hole."

"Tell me, how should I cooperate?" Sheng Shaochen smiled slightly. Although his smile was faint, it was the first time she saw him smile at her in front of so many people, which made Ye Shu very satisfied.

"Darling, the opponent’s goal is obvious. They want to ruin me. So Aunt Jie’s aim must be my life. Only if they succeed will she leave the Old Mansion. At that time, you can have someone secretly follow her movements and dig out the person behind her."

Sheng Shaochen said, "So you want me to report false information?"

Ye Shu nodded, "Hmm hmm hmm, okay darling?"

Sheng Shaochen lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, "Can I say no?"

Ou Linlin watched the two shamelessly flaunt their affection again in public and pinched Sun Nanjue’s waist, "Look, look..."

Sun Nanjue said, "Hey, Ou Linlin, are you crazy? It’s just a forehead kiss, what’s so strange about that? You can’t take it?"

Ou Linlin got angry, "I’m not saying it’s strange, but telling you to learn from it. Others can instantly become a wife-doting fanatic, yet I’ve never enjoyed such treatment."

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Sun Nanjue laughed, "How can it be the same? They’re newlyweds, we are an old married couple now. Holding hands is like left hand pulling right hand for me. It’s already quite good that I can refrain from flirting outside, okay?"

"Ahem!" Watching those two pairs flaunt their affection in various ways, An Zhe felt quite hurt and stood up, "I’m going out to take a look, and I’ll bring back something for you guys to eat."
