Chapter 443: 443 The Capital’s Threats
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You said that Zhuang Liu is about to die. Do you have any evidence to prove it?” Tan Rou pretended not to care.
“He told me his leg was only injured and would recover soon.”
“Humph!” Song Lin sneered and said mysteriously, “I’m telling you, Zhuang Liu’s legs are not injured; he’s poisoned!”
Tan Rou clenched her fists. Only the Zhuang family and a few of them knew about Zhuang Liu’s legs being poisoned. How did Song Lin know about this?
“What nonsense are you spouting?” Tan Rou continued to fish out Song Lin’s words. “If it were poison, the Zhuang family would have cured it long ago.”
Song Lin revealed a mysterious smile. “If the Zhuang family’s people could treat him, he would have been cured long ago. But I’m afraid someone doesn’t want Zhuang Liu’s leg to recover. Moreover, he should be in a hopeless state now. Don’t look at his complexion now. He might be recovering at the last moment. Zhuang Liu can only live day to day.”
“How do you know so much?” Tan Rou seemed to believe him.
Song Lin observed Tan Ron’s expression. He said she somewhat believed him, saying, “I heard it from my grandfather.”
“How did your grandfather know?” Tan Rou asked.
Song Lin wanted to please Tan Rou, but Tan Rou had a good relationship with Zhuang Liu. If he wanted to get Tan Rou, he had to sow discord between Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu. He thought that no girl would be willing to marry a man who did not have long to live. Besides, Tan Ron’s family would never allow her to marry a person with a disability who was about to die.
“My grandfather has a good relationship with the third master of the Zhuang family in the capital. There are many things that the third master told him, and then my grandfather told me about them.” Song Lin omitted that Old Master Song had told all the younger generation of the Song family about the matter. He only said that Old Master Song had told him about the matter. This way, his image in Tan Ron’s heart would become perfect.
Tan Rou felt that Song Lin had said that the Song family had a good relationship with the Zhuang family’s Third Master, but, in reality, the Zhuang family’s Third Master was secretly supporting his own forces. As for who this force was used against, it was obvious without guessing.
Tan Rou frowned as she pondered. Song Lin observed her expression and sized up her beautiful face. Tan Rou was wonderful. No matter from which angle, she was gorgeous, especially when she wore that blue dress last time. She was like a fairy from heaven who had fallen into the world.
Why didn’t he realize that Tan Rou was so beautiful in the past?
“Tan Rou, I’m telling you this because I care about you.” Song Lin said, “As you can see, the Song family has been developing very well these years. As long as you marry me, I can give you something that won’t be worse than Zhuang Liu’s.”
“At that time, you will be the mistress of the Song family. No one will dare to bully you again.”
Tan Rou sneered and mocked, “1 already said you’re a shameless man, but you refuse to believe me. Who do you think you are? How can you be compared to Zhuang Liu?”
Song Lin’s lungs were about to explode from anger. “I’ve told you so much, but you still want to be with Zhuang Liu, that dying person?”
“Haha.” Tan Rou laughed at him, then turned around and left.
Song Lin realized that he seemed to have been played by Tan Rou. From Tan Ron’s attitude, it seemed that she knew about Zhuang Liu’s situation. Otherwise, she would not have been so calm.
“Are you mocking me?” Song Lin chased after her, wanting to grab her shoulder.
Tan Rou sensed his approach and dodged Song Lin’s hand.
“I’m not playing with you.” Tan Rou smiled. “I was just casually asking. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to tell me. It turned out that you really liked to talk. I asked you a question, and you could answer me with answers that are fice times more than what 1 had expected.”
Song Lin had nowhere to vent his anger. He glanced at the cake in his hand and threw it into the trash can.
What was so good about Zhuang Liu, the cripple who was about to die? What did Tan Rou see in him? Was it really because of his good looks? However, Song Lin felt that he was not bad looking either.
After Tan Rou left, she quickly sent a message to Zhuang Liu. She told him that someone in the Zhuang family was in contact with the Song family and asked him to take precautions immediately..
