Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses-Chapter 312
Chapter 312: Family Bonds are Stronger than Water
“Stand up and speak.”
“What?” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Li Yuan opened his eyes in confusion.
What had he heard? This guy was telling him to stand up? Was he not going to kill him?
“Do you not understand human language? I said, stand up!” Jiang Che said impatiently, showing no kindness towards Li Yuan.
“What exactly do you want?” Li Yuan slowly got up from the ground, taking two steps back, watching Jiang Che warily.
He didn’t believe Jiang Che had good intentions. Sparing him surely meant some sinister plot.
“I don’t want anything much, just need your help with something. Ji Chen sent you to track my movements, right?”
“Go back and tell him that three days from now, I won’t be at the Bihai Flower Villa. Let him reunite with Ji Qingwan then.” Jiang Che said nonchalantly.
If it wasn’t for the villain points he’d get from turning Li Yuan, he wouldn’t have bothered. He would have killed him with one strike already!
“Why should I agree to your request?” Li Yuan sneered, thinking Jiang Che was being naive.
Did Jiang Che really think he was a traitor who would sell out for his life? He was loyal to Ji Chen, having gone through thick and thin together for years.
“You don’t have to agree, but I can’t say what might happen to your mother in the countryside and your sister at Linjiang University.” Jiang Che smirked, directly threatening him.
Despite Li Yuan’s efforts over the years to alter his personal records, Jiang Che’s connections still uncovered his family background.
Li Yuan lost his father early and was raised by his mother. He dropped out of middle school due to mischief and ended up in the Northern Territory at eighteen by chance, becoming who he was now.
The Northern Territory was dangerous, so for his family’s safety, Li Yuan had altered his records.
Every year, he sent money to his mother under the guise of a comrade, telling her Li Yuan had died.

He did this out of necessity, knowing many enemies wanted him dead. If they found out about his family, it would be disastrous.
“You… What are you talking about? I don’t understand.” Li Yuan swallowed hard, feigning ignorance, though he was extremely nervous inside.
He couldn’t believe Jiang Che knew so much about his background, implying a deliberate investigation. Jiang Che must have a big plan involving him, a disturbing realization.
“You don’t understand? Stop pretending. Is this your sister?” Jiang Che said, pulling out a photo and waving it in front of Li Yuan with a sinister smile.
“Your sister Li Qingxue is a freshman at Linjiang University and quite a beauty. I’ve met her; she’s quite lovely. But if you don’t cooperate… I wouldn’t mind turning her from a girl into a woman…”
“You… Jiang Che, you’re inhuman!” Li Yuan glared at Jiang Che with fury, appalled at his threat against his sister.
“I’m not here to waste words. You have two choices. One, cooperate with me, and I’ll spare you and your sister.”
“Two, I’ll kill you and then I’ll play with your sister.” Jiang Che’s cold voice echoed in Li Yuan’s ears, filling him with anger.
“You’ll get retribution for this!” Li Yuan said darkly.
“One more word, and I’ll kill you! I’ll give you three seconds to decide!”
“Three…”
“Two…”
As Jiang Che counted down, Li Yuan’s face showed inner turmoil, hesitating. On one side was his loyal leader of eight years. On the other was his sister, whom he owed so much.
Both were irreplaceable to him. How could he choose? Li Yuan felt overwhelmed, his mind in chaos.
“One…”
“I’ll cooperate! I agree to cooperate with you!” As Jiang Che’s countdown ended, Li Yuan shouted desperately.
In the end, he chose his sister. Family bonds are stronger than water. He couldn’t bear to see his sister harmed by Jiang Che.
That would drive him to his grave.
