Chapter 500: A Crack

“What do I mean? I’m simply reminding Third Young Master Min that our contract only has a month left. As a qualified sugar baby, I should protect your rights. I’m taking the initiative to remind you to take advantage of your last month and not lose out.”
After a long while, Min Ting said, “Y-you’re going to dump me?!”
Feng Qin was stunned, but she quickly restrained her surprise.
“Third Young Master Min, you must be joking. We’re in a relations.h.i.+p of sugar daddy and sugar baby. How can we talk about dumping each other? I’m not qualified to dump Third Young Master Min either. It’s just that the contract is about to expire. Before the contract expires, I humanely reminded Third Young Master Min to protect your rights.”
“We’ll extend the contract when it expires!”
She didn’t expect him to say such words, nor did she expect him to react so strongly. Feng Qin was stunned for a moment before she quickly restrained her emotions.
“Third Young Master Min, you must be joking. I don’t intend to extend the contract.”
“Back then, when Third Young Master Min suggested keeping me, I was an artist under Third Young Master Min. I won’t, and neither did I dare to disagree because that might mean that my acting career is about to end like this. I won’t allow the life I fought for to be destroyed just like that, so I agreed to Third Young Master Min’s suggestion.”
“Of course, it would seem unreasonable to say this now. I didn’t agree because Third Young Master Min forced me back then. This year, I really received a lot of good resources because I had Third Young Master Min’s care.”
“I didn’t lose out either.”
“But now, Third Young Master Min also saw that my sister and I have acknowledged each other. My mother and I have also escaped the Feng Family’s control. My father is back too.”
“In order not to embarra.s.s them, I won’t renew the contract. I probably won’t sign such a contract again with anyone in the future.”
“Let’s not talk about my parents. Just talk about my sister. With her relations.h.i.+p with Second Young Master Min, she will marry into the Min Family sooner or later. I don’t want anyone to say in the future that the wife of the head of the Min Family has a sister who is a kept woman. That way, my sister will be looked down upon.”
“So, Third Young Master Min, in order for you not to lose out, I’ll try my best to adjust my time to cooperate with you for the remaining month. If you have any needs, you can call me anytime.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the quiet courtyard.
“Third Young Master Min is right. This is Mount West Villa. I’d better not run around. Then, I’ll go back first.” After saying that, she even nodded politely at Min Ting before turning to leave.
Min Ting stood rooted to the ground in a daze.
When Feng Qin was completely out of sight, he kicked the tree beside him.
What exactly was he here for?
Wasn’t it because Feng Qin’s father suddenly returned and Feng Qin seemed to be in a bad mood after knowing about this and he specially came over to comfort her?
She couldn’t take the initiative to call him…
One year… one year…
Why did he…
At the thought of this, Min Ting suddenly jerked.
What was he thinking?
Did he regret that he had only signed the contract for a year? Did he regret setting the rule that indicated Feng Qin couldn’t take the initiative to call him?
He was…
When he realized what it was, Min Ting panicked.
He knew very well how Feng Qin treated him.
Once the contract expired, they would really have nothing to do with each other anymore!
In the future, Feng Qin would meet a man and get married and have children with that man…
How could that do?
Absolutely not!
What should he do? What should he do?
What should he do?
Feng Qin had already left when Min Ting returned to the banquet hall in a daze.
She had indeed joined the film crew. She had specially applied for leave to come over today.
Taking out his phone, Min Ting wanted to call Feng Qin, but he couldn’t make the call in the end.
For the next 20 days, Min Ting didn’t call Feng Qin.
During the filming, Feng Qin would occasionally remember this and wonder why Min Ting didn’t call her. However, her thoughts were quickly diverted by something else.
As the female lead, she had a lot of scenes to film and had to memorize many lines. She didn’t have much time to think about anything else.
Even if she thought about it occasionally, she would feel that Min Ting was either not interested in her anymore or had something to do and did not have the time to look for her.
Anyway, she had already reminded him what she needed to remind him. She had no right to interfere in anything else.
***
Somewhere deep in the mountains in the suburbs of the capital.
“Father!”
After escaping in a sorry state for more than a month, Liu Yu was finally brought back by the people Liu Guang sent out.
It was obviously Liu Yu’s first time here. Liu Yu looked excited when he took off his eye mask and saw Liu Guang sitting in front of him.
Looking around, Liu Yu was shocked to see that there were people wearing black clothes and carrying weapons. “Father, where are we?”
“My place.”
“Y-your place? Then…” Why didn’t I know that?
Liu Yu didn’t dare to ask the last sentence.
He was wearing a mask when he came in, which meant that his father did not want others to know where this was.
Since it was something he did not want others to know, it was undoubtedly a taboo for him to speak up now.
However, it was undeniable that Liu Yu felt a little uncomfortable knowing that Liu Guang still had such a hiding place.
This meant that Liu Guang didn’t trust him.
In addition, he had called Min Sisi, but he couldn’t contact Min Sisi while he had been on the run for the past few days. He happened to find out from others that Min Sisi, Chu Yiran, and w.a.n.g Zhi had already fallen into Yan Jinyu’s hands. Yan Jinyu wanted to exchange the three of them with Liu Guang for Yin Xiaoxiao, but Liu Guang didn’t agree.
Because of this, Liu Yu’s respect for Liu Guang had a crack. Now that he knew that Liu Guang had such a place but had never told him, that crack slowly widened.
However, Liu Yu did not show this emotion.
He was an idiot in Min Sisi’s eyes, but in reality, if Liu Yu was really stupid, how could he have been by Liu Guang’s side for so many years?
Just because he was Liu Guang’s biological son?
Of course not.
Liu Guang was not the kind of person who would put someone in an important position because of family ties.
If the person was worthless, he would abandon him or her without any hesitation.
Even if they were his biological daughter.
Hence, Liu Yu knew in his heart that if he showed his displeasure towards Liu Guang, Liu Guang would distrust him even more. He would even be suspected and punished heavily by Liu Guang. Furthermore, he might even be directly dealt with as a traitor.
He knelt down. “I’m sorry, Father. I didn’t complete the mission. Please punish me!”
Min Sisi felt that Liu Yu was stupid, but so did Liu Guang.
Even if he didn’t think Liu Yu was stupid, in Liu Guang’s opinion, Liu Yu was the easiest to control.
He had no doubts about Liu Yu.
Especially since Liu Guang didn’t know that Liu Yu already knew that Yan Jinyu had used the three of them to exchange for Yin Xiaoxiao and he didn’t agree.
Liu Yu had been on the run these few days, so he naturally didn’t have time to investigate.
Then, it was either Yan Jinyu and the others who told him or Liu Guang’s people who told him that he knew about this.
Obviously, it couldn’t be Yan Jinyu and the others who told him because they were pursuing him. If they had the chance to tell him, it meant that they had caught up with him. How could they let him return to Liu Guang’s side?
Just to tell him this news and make him have a grudge with Liu Guang?
Yan Jinyu and the others wouldn’t do such an uncertain thing.
Then, it could only be Liu Guang’s people who told him.
Would Liu Guang get his subordinates to tell Liu Yu about this and make Liu Yu have second thoughts about him?
Obviously not.
This meant that someone let Liu Yu know this information on purpose.
To be precise, someone had deliberately pa.s.sed this information to Liu Yu through Liu Guang’s subordinates.
“You’re not in the wrong here. No. 99 is not easy to deal with. I knew that long ago. I thought that No. 99 and those few people around her were not in North City. Even if she left someone to guard in North City, they would still be easy to deal with and not your match. I didn’t expect…”
He heard that the person No. 99 sent to guard North City was from the Chu Family. Chu Ying was really incompetent back then. Couldn’t she just kill her and end it? Why did she have to leave such a huge hidden danger?
These few days, Liu Guang didn’t stay in the base and did nothing.
He indeed didn’t leave the base, but he had gotten someone to investigate outside. He knew all the information about the outside world, including the fact that Liu Yu had been defeated by Chu Ling, that Chu Ling was a member of the Chu Family, and that Chu Ying, Chu Yiran, and Min Sisi might have already been killed by Yan Jinyu.
He knew everything.
“It’s good that you’re back. Go upstairs and take a shower and rest first. You’ve worked hard recently.”
“Thank you, Father.”
Liu Yu was about to go upstairs, but he couldn’t help turning back and asking, “Father, how has Sisi been during the days that I was in trouble?”
“I’ve dropped all my communication devices, but I don’t dare to use others’ communication devices to contact Sisi. I’m afraid that I’ll expose my whereabouts and be discovered by the other party. Up until now, I haven’t called Sisi for more than a month. I’m a little worried about her.”
Liu Guang glanced at him and said, “Something happened to Sisi.”
“Her ident.i.ty was discovered by No. 99 and she died by No. 99’s hands. Not only Sisi, but even Yiran, Chu Ying, and w.a.n.g Zhi, whom I had arranged long ago, fell at No. 99’s hands.”
Liu Yu looked shocked and then furious.
Just as she was about to speak, Liu Guang beat her to it, “Speaking of which, you’re mostly responsible for this. Did Sisi call you to ask about Yiran’s ident.i.ty previously? Did you tell her about Yiran’s background?”
Liu Yu was stunned.
He only knew that Sisi and Chu Yiran had fallen into Yan Jinyu’s hands, and his father didn’t want to exchange Yin Xiaoxiao for them. He didn’t know why they had fallen into Yan Jinyu’s hands.
Before that, Yan Jinyu clearly didn’t know Sisi’s ident.i.ty, let alone Chu Yiran’s.
Why did they end up in Yan Jinyu’s hands?
“From your reaction, I guess so.”
“After No. 99 found out about their ident.i.ties and took them away, he asked me to use Xiao… to use the chips in my hand to exchange for them, but I rejected her.”
When Hei Yao, who had been standing silently at the side, heard that, he looked up at Liu Guang.
He actually said it out loud.
Then, it was probably useless to provoke Liu Yu with that.
“Yu, you know my rules. I can’t tolerate others making mistakes. Even if the ones who make mistakes are my biological children, they’re still unforgivable!”
“It’s your own mistake that exposed your ident.i.ty that put you in danger.. I’m already the most tolerant of you by not punis.h.i.+ng you. Don’t think that I’ll pay for your mistake!”
