Chapter 942 Let It Go
Chapter 942 Let It Go
"No, Mu Bai, don't say such things!" Lu Jingchen explained in a panic, "I know I have done a lot of things to let you down in the past, but I promise that I will be twice as good to you in the future, and I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you!"
"Make up?" Jiang Mubai sneered, "What can you use to make up? What can you use to make up for my lost youth, lost love, lost..."
Having said this, Jiang Mubai suddenly stopped. She realized that she had lost her composure and she didn't want to show her vulnerability in front of Lu Jingchen.
She took a deep breath, tried to control her emotions, and said coldly: "Lu Jingchen, we are over, please don't disturb my life again in the future."
After saying that, she turned around and wanted to leave, but was grabbed by Lu Jingchen.
"Mu Bai, don't go!" Lu Jingchen's voice was filled with despair, "Give me a chance, let me prove that I love you!"
Jiang Mubai's heart trembled suddenly. She could feel the sincerity in Lu Jingchen's words and the pain in his eyes. But could she really still believe him? Could she go back to the past?
Just then, a black car slowly stopped beside them, the window rolled down, revealing a handsome face.
"Mu Bai, why are you outside alone so late?" Cheng Yunchuan asked with concern.
Seeing Cheng Yunchuan appear, Lu Jingchen's face instantly became gloomy. He held Jiang Mubai's hand tightly and looked at Cheng Yunchuan vigilantly.
"Yunchuan, why are you here?" Jiang Mubai asked in surprise.
"I just happened to pass by and saw you standing here alone, so I came over to take a look." Cheng Yunchuan smiled gently, "It seems that I disturbed you."
"No, I didn't disturb you." Jiang Mubai explained quickly, "He and I..."
"We still have something to say." Lu Jingchen interrupted Jiang Mubai coldly, his eyes full of hostility.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at Lu Jingchen, with a meaningful smile on his face, "Really? Then I won't bother you anymore."
After saying that, he rolled up the window and drove away slowly.
However, when the car was less than ten meters away, it suddenly braked and stopped on the side of the road. Cheng Yunchuan opened the car door, walked quickly to the side of the road, bent over and retched... He held the lamp post with one hand and covered his mouth with the other hand. His stomach was churning, but he couldn't vomit anything. Just now in the bar, he deliberately drank a lot of alcohol in order to make Lu Jingchen believe him. Now the effect of alcohol began to take effect, making him feel nauseous.
He raised his head and looked at the entangled figures of Jiang Mubai and Lu Jingchen, with a hint of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes...
Jiang Mubai felt a chill running from her feet to her head. Lu Jingchen, even if he died, would drag her into hell. She tightly grasped the document, her knuckles turning white, and she almost crushed the paper. Inherit all the debts? That was not a small amount, enough to bankrupt her family and even burden her with a huge debt that she could not pay off in her lifetime.
"What...what does this mean?" Lin Wan asked in a trembling voice. She didn't understand what was happening, but she felt fear instinctively.
Jiang Mubai took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. "Lu Jingchen set a trap in his will. If Cheng Yunchuan doesn't raise the child, then all the debts will be borne by me."
Lin Wan's eyes widened as she looked at Jiang Mubai in disbelief. She held the child's hands even tighter, as if this could prevent all bad luck.
Jiang Mubai closed her eyes, her mind in a mess. Cheng Yunchuan was still angry, if he really refused to raise the child... she didn't dare to think about it anymore.
At this time, Cheng Yunchuan pushed the door open and walked in. His face was gloomy, and there was a hint of fatigue and irritability in his eyes. Seeing the document in Jiang Mubai's hand, he snatched it and quickly browsed through it.
"Damn Lu Jingchen! He's plotting against us until his death!" Cheng Yunchuan roared and threw the document to the ground.
"What should we do now?" Jiang Mubai's voice trembled a little, and she felt like she was about to collapse.
Cheng Yunchuan walked up to her and hugged her in his arms. "Don't be afraid, I'm here." His voice was low and firm, as if giving her strength.
"But..." Jiang Mubai raised his head, tears welling up in his eyes, "We simply can't afford those debts..."
Cheng Yunchuan gently wiped the tears from her face and said, "I will find a way. Even if I have to sell everything I have, I will protect you and the child."
Lin Wan looked at the two people hugging each other tightly, with mixed feelings in her heart. She knew that she shouldn't cause them any more trouble, but...
"I can leave," Lin Wan said while choking, "I can take the child away and not bring any trouble to you..."
Cheng Yunchuan let go of Jiang Mubai, walked to Lin Wan, squatted down, and looked her in the eye. "You don't have to leave. The child is innocent, and he deserves a complete family."
Lin Wan was stunned. She didn't expect Cheng Yunchuan to say such a thing.
Cheng Yunchuan stood up, walked to the window, looked at the night outside, and took a deep breath. "I will go find Lu Jingchen's lawyer and talk to him. See if there is any room for maneuver."
"Yunchuan..." Jiang Mubai walked to him and gently held his hand.
Cheng Yunchuan turned his head and looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness and determination. "Don't worry, I will take care of everything."
At this moment, a cell phone ring broke the silence in the room. Cheng Yunchuan took out his cell phone, glanced at the caller ID, and his face instantly turned gloomy.
"Yes...my father."
Jiang Mubai's heart suddenly sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. Cheng Yunchuan's father, the chairman of Cheng Group, was a man with a strong personality and a strong desire for control. He had always opposed Cheng Yunchuan and Jiang Mubai being together, and even used various means to obstruct them. What was he going to do this time?
Cheng Yunchuan answered the phone with a cold tone. "Hello."
The majestic voice of Cheng's father came from the other end of the phone, "I heard that you and Jiang Mubai got into trouble again? And it involves Lu Jingchen's illegitimate child?"
Cheng Yunchuan clenched his phone tightly, his knuckles turning white. "This is my private matter, it has nothing to do with you."
"Private matter?" Father Cheng sneered, "You are the heir of my Cheng family. Your every move is related to the reputation of the Cheng family! I warn you, break off your relationship with Jiang Mubai immediately, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?" Cheng Yunchuan's voice was full of sarcasm, "Are you going to kick me out of the house? Or sever the father-son relationship?"
"You!" Father Cheng was irritated by his attitude. "You've grown wings. How dare you talk to me like that!"
"I've said it before, I make my own decisions about my own affairs!" Cheng Yunchuan said and hung up the phone.
Jiang Mubai looked at Cheng Yunchuan, her heart full of worry. She knew Cheng's father's methods, and he would never give up.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open and a group of men in black rushed in...
