Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Even the simplest kindness was like a myth in Ling Xuewei’s heart because in her growing years, there were almost none that could be called kindness.

Ling Xuewei lowered her eyes and looked at the messy photos on the office desk. The words of refusal were on the tip of her tongue, but in the end, she didn’t say it.

She had already been controlled by them for too many years.

If not for her father and stepmother’s continuous extortion, the achievements she could have made with her talent and hard work would definitely have been more than this.

She had already had enough of it!

If she could really use this opportunity to completely get rid of their extortion, it would be a good choice.

Ling Xuewei let out a light breath. She had already made a decision in her heart.

Compared to the endless extortion, she would rather accept Lin Bai’s help.

And the price she had to pay behind the scenes...

No matter what it was.

Her body, her dignity, her interests...

Or anything else.

She was willing because those sacrifices would, at least, come to an end.

It would not be like her father and stepmother, with whom she was forever entangled.

They would both cause her pain, and she would rather choose the one with a deadline.

While Ling Xuewei was silently weighing the pros and cons in her heart, her father and foster mother were also doing the same.

The two of them whispered in each other’s ears for a long time.

Ling Zu’an felt that since Lin Bai was so readily willing to fork out one billion to buy out the evidence in their hands, he might be willing to fork out even more.

So what he meant was to not agree immediately and try again to see if he could get more money.

But Du Xifeng felt that she should quit while she was ahead.

She had been in the business world for more than half her life and had seen more people than Ling Zu’an.

Therefore, she could see that what Lin Bai said just now was not a lie.

If they continued to argue, it was very likely that they would not get a single cent, and might even be punished.

Therefore, she decisively ignored ling Zu’an’s urging and said to Lin Bai,?“Since everything has been agreed upon, transfer the money over now. I will immediately destroy all the evidence in my hands.”

Lin Bai was not a fool. How could he agree just like that?

He said, “No, you have to hand over the money and the things in one hand.?Also, you have to promise not to keep a copy and sign the confidentiality agreement and commitment letter.”

Du Xifeng was about to speak when the lawyer next to her suddenly bent down and whispered something in her ear.

So, Du Xifeng changed her words.

“It’s fine to sign the confidentiality agreement, but you have to let my lawyer see it first to confirm that there are no problems with the terms and conditions.?In addition, you have to sign another gift agreement to make it clear that the nature of this money is a gift and that it is irrevocable.”

Lin Bai laughed mockingly.

“Since I said that I would give it to you, I won’t find a reason to get it back later.?I’m not worried that you will cheat, but you are worried about this but?that’s right. People who love to play tricks always think that others are like them.?Since you’re so cautious, I’ll ask the lawyer to discuss the follow-up agreement with you.”

“Also, I’ll let you know in advance. When the agreement is officially signed, I’ll ask Director Feng of the City Public Security Bureau to be here as a witness.?If you’re worried, you can also call another witness.” 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

Du Xifeng’s expression obviously changed.

She carefully observed the expression on Lin Bai’s face, as if she was trying to determine whether Lin Bai was telling the truth or was deliberately using Chief Feng’s name to support himself.

Ling Zu’an, who was at the side, could not hold back his emotions and blurted,?“If you want to sign the agreement, then sign the agreement. Why must you call the police over? !”

He knew very well that his actions in the past few years could be called extortion.

That was why Ling Zu’an was very afraid. He was afraid that not only would he not be able to get the money, but he would also even turn the agreement into something that involved the law.

In fact, Du Xifeng also had the same worry, but she could still restrain herself. She was not like Ling Zu’an, who directly showed his emotions on his face.

Lin Bai chuckled coldly.

“If you don’t dare to take the money, you can also directly destroy the evidence. Maybe when I’m in a good mood, I’ll directly let you go.?Of course, you can also refuse. You can do whatever you want.”

“I’ll only tell you one thing –” f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Lin Bai deliberately paused and said in a more serious tone,?“In any case, I’ll protect this woman for sure. Don’t think of hurting her in any way!”

The meaning behind his words was very obvious.

‘If you’re willing to solve it through legal means, then I’ll abide by the law.’

‘If you guys aren’t honest and don’t abide by the law, then I will resort to more methods.?No matter what, this matter must be resolved.’

No matter what method is used.

Such a straightforward defense and such a resolute attitude.

Du Xifeng immediately understood and decided to follow Lin Bai’s plan. Taking the money and then destroying the evidence was the most beneficial plan for them.

Otherwise, what awaited them might not be anything.

“Mr. Lin, I understand what you mean.?Let’s go back and make some preparations. I’ll contact you in a few days.”

Lin Bai waved his hand as if he was shooing away flies. “Scram.”

Du Xifeng and Ling Zu’an did not dare to speak anymore. They quickly disappeared with the lawyer.

Lin Bai personally closed the office door and locked it.

Then he turned around and asked Ling Xuewei,?“Do you know what evidence they have?”

Ling Xuewei nodded. “Yes.”

“Alright, you can confirm it yourself when the time comes. Did they bring all the original evidence over?” Lin Bai said.

Ling Xuewei nodded again. “Alright, thank you.”

Lin Bai said again,?“I was interrupted by them previously. You haven’t answered me yet. Can you tell that Wang Hao to scram?”

“Of course.” Ling Xuewei nodded repeatedly.

Lin Bai was willing to pay one billion for her to buy out evidence of her dark history. How could she not agree to such a small request?

Lin Bai asked again,?“Regarding the car accident between you and Sun Jiandong and his wife, there’s no need for a lawsuit anymore, right?”

“Withdraw the lawsuit. You will bear all the responsibility. You will compensate for medical expenses, missed work fees, and all other expenses.?Also, ask Wang Hao to apologize to Sun Jiandong’s family in person, or you can apologize on his behalf. Your attitude must be sincere until Sun Jiandong’s family is willing to forgive you.”

“Is there a problem?”

Ling Xuewei shook her head. “No. Everything will be as you say.”

Lin Bai smiled in satisfaction.

“Very good.”

After saying that, Lin Bai planned to leave.

Ling Xuewei stared at his back in disbelief. In the end, she could not hold it in. The moment Lin Bai reached out to open the door, she asked carefully.

“You... Don’t have any other requests?”

Lin Bai turned around to look at her and asked with a half-smile,?“Isn’t this enough?”

For a moment, Ling Xuewei didn’t know how to answer.

She heard a weak voice in her heart that asked hesitantly, ‘Is this really enough?’
