The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus-Chapter 421: This did not kill"; Assassinate Lin Cheng - Do it Tonight

Before the engagement banquet ended, the Old King left early, completely not giving anyone a chance to ask about Lin Cheng's situation.

As the Old King left, everyone else gradually withdrew from the hall. They left the hall in groups of three to five, apparently not to go back to their respective homes, but to find another venue to talk about things that could not be talked about publicly.

Lafeier father and son, who had been the focus of everyone's attention throughout, intentionally avoided everyone. By the time others wanted to find them, father and son were already long gone.

Lafeier looked back at the groups of royal family members behind and said, "He really has a tough life, he didn't even die from the crash."

Lai En: "Considering when he was poisoned, he probably doesn't have many days left to live anyway? At most another week."

Lafeier: "A week is too long. If the news reaches her ears, there will be big trouble, or even complete failure."

Lai En: "What can she do even if she knows? Can she find out the truth for Lin Cheng and avenge him, or can she save him?" He couldn't help but say, "Father, aren't you a little too wary of her?"

But Lafeier told him, "She can do both."

Lai En was surprised.

Lafeier: "So Lin Guli's life cannot be spared either. I must make sure no one can pass the news on to her."

Lai En was very curious about what kind of person Qiao Ying was, but his father had told him not to be curious and obviously would not tell him more. So he could only ask, "What should we do now?"

Lafeier: "First find out about Lin Cheng's current condition."

Hospital,

ICU outside,

The Old King looked at Lin Cheng inside through the glass.

Crown Prince Chadan stood beside, blaming himself.

The Young Prince comforted his elder brother.

The Old King looked at his eldest son, "This is not your fault. Go back to the ward and get some rest first."

The Young Prince said, "Let me help big brother over."

Chadan was unwilling to leave: "I'm fine, I'll just wait here."

"You being here won't help." Under the Old King's firm attitude, Chadan had no choice but to leave.

After the two princes left, the Old King adjusted his state and comforted Lin Guli, saying, "Duke Lin will be fine."

At this moment, Lin Guli was somewhat listless and dispirited, as if he had suddenly lost the most cherished thing. He looked at Lin Cheng on the hospital bed with an oxygen mask and after a long while, said, "...The doctor said he may never wake up again."

Old King: "He will wake up."

Lin Guli looked at the Old King and asked, "He's already like this, so why do you still announce him as the heir to the throne?"

Old King: "My abdication is imminent, Duke Lin is the only suitable candidate, plus the situation today, I have no other choice."

Lin Guli: "You saw it too, someone doesn't want him to take that position, and went as far as to take his life to stop him."

"Lin Cheng is lying there now, let alone managing the country for you, he doesn't even have the ability to protect himself anymore."

"Yet you still want to squeeze every last bit of value out of him to stabilize the situation." Lin Guli felt indignant.

The King admitted that he was somewhat unscrupulous to use Lin Cheng like this.

But he didn't think he was wrong. He just wasn't so humane, and whether the ruler of a country could be humane was not for him to decide. From the moment Lin Cheng signed the agreement to now agreeing to marry Karina and inherit the throne, as long as he was king for one day, everything about Lin Cheng was at his command.

But at this critical juncture, the Old King also had no need to haggle with Lin Guli over the greater good, let alone defend himself.

Now, keeping Lin Cheng in the hospital and getting Lin Guli's cooperation to seal off the news was most important.

Old King: "You have to believe that Lin Cheng ending up like this makes me just as sad and helpless as you. I don't want him to have an accident more than anyone else."

"I will get to the bottom of this. If this is not an accident, I will definitely give Duke Lin, everyone who supports Duke Lin, and Prince, you an explanation."

"I will send enough troops to protect Duke Lin. I will absolutely not let him suffer the slightest harm again. Also, I will find the best doctors to treat Duke Lin."

Lin Guli: "The king is also selfish in doing so, wanting to seal off the news that Lin Cheng has become a vegetable, so those with ulterior motives won't take the opportunity to do something."

Lin Guli was not wronging him, but saying it out so bluntly and accusingly made the Old King very dissatisfied with Lin Guli's lack of propriety and disregard for their hierarchy, yet he had nothing to say.

Lin Guli: "Let me make it clear that Lin Cheng is my only close kin. I have always treated him like my own son. If anything else happens, or if someone wants to harm him, I will stop at nothing to take him away. I hope the king can understand the heart of a father then."

The Old King looked at Lin Guli, then thought of Lin Cheng who might never wake up again inside.

Perhaps to appease Lin Guli, or feeling that Lin Cheng was about to lose value, or maybe he did have a twinge of conscience.

He promised: "If it turns out that this was done by the Howard family, I promise you, after Lin Cheng wakes up he no longer has to be king."

"At that time, Crown Prince Chadan will become the next king. Lin Cheng can assist him, he also doesn't need to marry Karina."

If it really was Lafeier and his son who did it, he could then justifiedly suppress the Howard family and take back some of the power from them, and the Howard family would no longer be too intimidating.

Lin Guli: "I hope the king keeps his word."

Old King: "Of course."

"I'll leave it to Prince here. Please let me know immediately if there is any news."

After speaking, the Old King turned to leave. But after taking a few steps, even the battered Old King could no longer stand it. His vision went dark and he fell straight to the ground...

Lafeier: "So Lin Cheng is likely to become a vegetable?"

Lai En: "Yes. Father, where did you get that poison? It's so incredible that even the doctors didn't find it."

Lafeier: "I got it by chance. That stuff can't be bought with money. Its rareness lies in that the poisoned person will show the same symptoms as a cold or fever, if you don't examine carefully, you won't find it at all."

Lai En sneered, "The old guy is still eagerly waiting for Lin Cheng to wake up one day, but doesn't know that in a few days, Lin Cheng will die unnoticed."

Lafeier: "I'm sure the hospital Lin Cheng is in is now heavily guarded. Find out about the security arrangements there."

Lai En: "Father wants to send someone to the hospital...? The old guy and Lin Guli will definitely look for doctors all over the world to treat Lin Cheng. If Lin Guli finds doctors from Hua Guo, he may ask Qin Hanyue for help, so Qiao Ying will know too. We really can't let him live too long."

Lafeier: "Lin Cheng still hasn't completely escaped the danger to his life? Then it would be very normal if he suddenly died, right?"

Lai En: "Just that, the hospital is heavily guarded. Who does Father plan to send? We don't have such capable men."

Lafeier: "Don't worry about that. Find out as soon as possible, best if we can take action tonight, to avoid things going wrong after a long delay."

Lai En nodded, "I'll ask right away."

He made a call, asking the person on the other end to find out about the security arrangements at the hospital.

At the same time, he also got a piece of news, a good news.

Lai En told his father: "The old guy fainted and fell at the hospital, and fell pretty hard. He shows signs of having a stroke."

Lafeier laughed, "Even heaven is helping us, very good. Get some people to visit our Duke, the future king, early tomorrow morning at the palace to show their concern."

Lai En: "Understood."
