Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 493 - 396 First Watch

For opponents, the most unwelcome thing, of course, is the appearance of variables.

The presence of variables means that they have more possibilities to fail, so to increase the odds of winning, they will spare no effort to get this variable on their side.

If they can’t win it over, the simplest and most effective method is to make the opponent disappear.

Now, Men Chao is probably still at the first step, trying to win her over.

After all, she is Ye Cheng’s intimate companion; if she were to betray him, the blow to Ye Cheng would undoubtedly be fatal.

"Young Madam Gu, I’ve told you that you are a smart person. Since you can guess this much, you naturally understand the consequences of not cooperating with us. Let me put it this way, my men are with your family right now. With just one phone call, they will face trouble; you can try it if you don’t believe me." Men Chao made a gesture inviting Xiaofeng to make a phone call home to check.

Xiaofeng looked at him, his confident demeanor causing her eyes to narrow.

She dialed a number back home and her father answered, "Is that you, Xiaofeng? We plan to come over on the 29th and then return on the 2nd. There’s just too much going on at home; we can’t stay away for long."

Guaizi took the call from Xiaofeng, thinking she was concerned about when they would be traveling and quickly shared the itinerary.

"Dad, is anyone else traveling with you this time?" Xiaofeng suddenly felt irritable, realizing that if there was indeed a threat near her father, it was a real threat.

"Oh, your brother ran into a person named Lili. I heard she was trafficked to our place. Your brother felt sorry for her and arranged for her to work in the factory. She got wind that we were coming to the Imperial Capital and expressed her desire to return as well. Your brother said that her home is in the Imperial Capital, so if she wants to go back now, they’ll take her along, and it’ll be a good deed."

Indeed, the poor girl seemed pitiable, and having company on the trip to the Imperial Capital was naturally the best situation.

Xiaofeng’s breath tightened, knowing in her heart that this Lili must be someone sent by Men Chao. Why hadn’t her brother told her about this Lili?

"Alright, take care on the road." Xiaofeng took a deep breath; the situation had developed to this point, and it was already too late to ask about this woman named Lili.

After hanging up, Men Chao raised an eyebrow at her, "So, did your father mention, perhaps your elder brother has taken a liking to her, maybe even plans to marry her?"

"Mr. Men," Xiaofeng looked at him seriously, "You should know better than anyone who I am now, what my status is. I am not only the Gu family’s daughter-in-law but also the Quan family’s daughter. Are you sure you want to threaten me with these despicable methods?"

"Because I know that you wouldn’t ignore Old Su Guaizi, am I right?" Men Chao placed his hands in front of his stomach, his eyes softening, "Don’t worry, as long as you cooperate, my people will definitely not harm him."

"What exactly do you want me to cooperate with you on?"

"I’ve already made it very simple, take your children and leave, go back to Lihua Village or find another place where no one can find you, in any case, you need to separate from Mr. Gu. " Gu Yecheng almost had a breakdown last time, yet this woman took him out for a trip, and he was fine."

Only by making this woman disappear from Gu Yecheng’s side could they definitely induce Gu Yecheng to have a breakdown, and everything would be much easier once Gu Yecheng had a breakdown."

So, this woman had to leave, willingly or not.

Xiaofeng lowered her eyes as if making calculations, and half a minute later, she raised her head, "You’re right, I won’t gamble with my father’s life. But as you can see, my wedding with Ye Cheng is approaching. For a woman, having a decent wedding is a lifetime dream, you wouldn’t be so cruel as to make me disappear before the wedding, would you?"

Men Chao watched her, her emotional fluctuations very calm, not too surprised or too angry, as if everything were expected.

Listening to her, he laughed.

"I know what you’re planning. You’re just waiting for your father to arrive. Once he’s here, with the power of the Gu family, we wouldn’t be able to make a move even if we wanted to." Men Chao leaned back slightly, "So, I will not agree to this plan."

"Of course, there is a way; you call them and have them not come at all. As long as they stay in the countryside and my people are still beside them, you are free to complete the wedding ceremony before leaving, don’t you think?"
