Chapter 485: 485: We have all been tricked by Lu Lingche!
Lan Yuyi’s tone was filled with disgust: “It must be her, I originally thought she was already out of the picture, thinking her cousin was a bigger threat to me. I only found out now that her cousin was just a decoy!”
Wen Bilan found it unbelievable: “No way, how could her cousin be a decoy? Didn’t Lu Lingche like her a lot before? He even said he was going to marry her!”
Lan Yuyi was extremely angry: “We were all fooled by Lu Lingche!”
Wen Bilan jumped up from the bed in shock: “What?!”
“Qiao Lainan hasn’t made a single move these days, and she hasn’t been seen around Lu Lingche either. I sent someone to find out about Qiao Lainan yesterday, only to learn that she’s already gone back to the countryside!”
“If Lu Lingche really liked her, Qiao Lainan, whose ambition to marry into a rich family is written on her face, would never have been allowed to go back home! Him claiming to marry Qiao Lainan is nothing but a ploy to draw hatred!”
“Hmph, his request for me to abort the baby was because of Qiao Lainan, it’s all a lie!”
“It must be because Qiao Yin lost her own child and out of jealousy towards me, she said something to Lu Lingche, resulting in him asking me to abort my child!”
“It’s all Qiao Yin’s fault, how can she be so cunning and scheming!”
Listening to her daughter’s analysis, Wen Bilan found it increasingly convincing. She also hated Qiao Yin to the point that it made her teeth itch: “So it was her doing all along! I was wondering why Lu Lingche suddenly insisted that you abort the child. He used to be so protective of you until Qiao Yin lost her child. He completely changed after that!”
Lan Yuyi reflected for a moment before suddenly realizing: “Right, Lu Lingche’s attitude towards me only changed after Qiao Yin lost her child!”
“In the past, whenever I had the slightest stomach discomfort, he would rush to check on me, regardless of whether it was raining heavily or in the middle of the night. Now everything has changed!”
“It’s ludicrous that I’ve considered Qiao Lainan as my rival all along, when in fact my enemy has never changed. It’s always been Qiao Yin!”
Wen Bilan’s eyes were filled with sinister intent: “In that case, let’s go all out and get rid of Qiao Yin once and for all! This bitch is nothing but trouble alive, causing continuous harm to you and massive losses to our Lan Family!”
“No, letting her die would be letting her off too easy! She incited Lu Lingche to have me abort the baby. I must get my revenge for this! And for her exposing my father’s scandal, she must pay the price!”
“But, if she’s alive, what if Lu Lingche wants to remarry her? He hasn’t officially registered the marriage with you yet, and even Madam Lu can’t do much about it. Your position is not stable!”
“If it really comes to that point, it won’t be too late to kill her then!”
Lan Yuyi was a little more cautious than Wen Bilan: “Getting rid of Qiao Yin is of course easy, but it will easily expose us.”
“We want to kill my dad’s mistress, and if Qiao Yin ends up dying too, both women connected to us would be dead. The police would certainly suspect us, and so would Lu Lingche. The consequences would outweigh the benefits!”
“There are plenty of ways to deal with Qiao Yin! Didn’t she open some broken medical clinic? Let’s start from there!”
Wen Bilan nodded, growing increasingly appreciative of her daughter’s thoughtfulness: “Yuyi, you’re becoming more and more patient, and you’re considering the big picture when doing things. You definitely have a promising future, and the position of the lady of the Lu Family is fit for you, and no one else!”
Being praised by her mother felt good to Lan Yuyi. She spoke softly: “I’ve learned a few things from Madam Lu. She doesn’t guard against me and constantly teaches me how to conduct myself, and how ruthless she is, only I know. In the future, this may become an important bargaining chip for me against her.”
