Chapter 732: Negotiation
Cheng Che hastily said, “Grandma, Brother Chen, sister-in-law, I’ll speak to Yin Yi tomorrow. I’ll tell her to stop messing around.”
Cheng Che felt very guilty. He felt that he had brought trouble to his brother and sister-in-law. If he had been a little stricter on his two sisters, Yin Yi would not have dared to act so audaciously. It was all because of his indecisiveness. He could not help but feel frustrated.
Song Ning smiled and said in an attempt to comfort Cheng Che, “Don’t blame yourself for everything. Yin Yi is already an adult. Even if you’re her brother, you can’t control her. Just pretend you don’t know anything and see what else she’ll do. If we ignore her, I’m sure she’s going to continue to cause trouble. When the time comes, who knows if I might be able to obtain something that’ll be of help to you? Perhaps, we’ll be able to use it as leverage against the Yin family.”
Cheng Che felt extremely grateful when he heard Song Ning’s words. Song Ning clearly treated him as her younger brother.
Mu Chen frowned. “I think you can make a move now. Since we’ve not been able to figure out their true intentions, why don’t you take the initiative to enter the tiger’s den to see what they want?”
Cheng Che said through gritted teeth, “Alright. Then, I’ll meet Ye Cheng tomorrow.”
Jiahui was surprised upon hearing these words. She asked, “What does this have to do with Ye Cheng?”
Cheng Che patiently explained, “You know that Ye Cheng is now my sister’s boyfriend. In order to stabilize their relationship, Ye Cheng has been currying favor with Old Master Yin. He must have told or implied to Old Master Yin that he could persuade me to return to the Yin family. He likely wants to use this to gain the Yin family’s trust. Ye Cheng is now highly favored in the Yin family. Even if he doubts me, in order to protect his own interest, he won’t voice his suspicion to the Yin family. So…”
Realization dawned on Jiahui. “So you plan to meet him tomorrow and used him to advance your plan?”
Cheng Che nodded.
Jiahui sighed. “All of you are really smart. You’re able to think of 180 possibilities in just a short time. I’m really impressed.” After a pause, she asked, “Then, what about Ningning?”
Song Ning said softly, “Let’s just go with the flow.”
Jiang Jin nodded. “In regard to that, we won’t take the initiative to make a move. Instead, we’ll respond to the moves the opponent makes.”
…
When Cheng Che finally agreed to meet Ye Cheng on the 19th of the month, Ye Cheng was stunned. For a moment, Ye Chen did not know if he should feel happy or not. Nonetheless, he quickly set a venue and a time.
…
It did not take long before Yin Yi went to look for Song Ning.
It was lunchtime, and Song Ning was resting when Yin Yi showed up. The arrogant manner in which Yin Yi carried herself made Song Ning feel as though she was the third party trying to get in between Yin Yi and Mu Chen’s relationship instead.
Yin Yi said bluntly, “Dr. Song, name your price. What will it take for you to leave Brother Mu Chen?”
Song Ning looked at Yin Yi and said with a smile, “Why would I leave him? He’s handsome and wealthy, and he has a high status. Won’t I suffer a loss if I leave him? Miss Yin, I’m not stupid.”
Yin Yi did not expect Song Ning to be so calm. She tried her best to be patient as she said coldly, “You’re not worthy of him. This marriage of unequal status won’t have a good ending. What Brother Mu Chen needs is someone like me who’s of equal status with him. How can you help him? You’re just an unwanted daughter. I can give him unlimited resources and benefits. Can you do that? You can’t. Hence, if you really love him, you should leave him. Don’t worry. I won’t take advantage of you, and I’ll definitely compensate you fairly. I just want you to disappear from his life. If you agree, sign a contract with me, and we’ll end this matter today.”
After Yin Yi finished speaking, she looked at Song Ning confidently.
Song Ning sighed inwardly. She wondered what kind of family and parents would raise such a foolishly confident child.
