Translator: Atlas Studios    Editor: Atlas Studios

Wei Ying looked dejected. She covered her face with her hand and did not speak for a long time.

Wei Ling could not sit still anymore and called out to her, “Mom, Jingyan is talking to you. Contact the person from the reclusive families.”

Wei Ying looked up with red and bloodshot eyes, and her voice was hoarse.

“Things have already come to this point. Why are you still hesitating? We have no way out. We can only bite them to death.”

Wei Ling was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof.

“We’re doomed if Jiang Zongjin successfully escapes this time!”

Wei Ying was finally willing to tell the truth. “l can’t contact them.”

“What?!” Shen Jingyan and Wei Ling spoke in unison. They were so shocked that they broke out in cold sweat.

Wei Ying did not dare to look them in the eyes. “l called half an hour ago, but the other party did not pick up. I continued trying, but soon it became an empty number! ”

Shen Jingyan slumped back onto the sofa. “How did this happen?”

Wei Ying covered her face, feeling regretful. “That brat Wei Lou kept pressing us, leaving us with no way out. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have sacrificed my life for the sake of your future.

“I didn’t expect the so-called reclusive families to be so cowardly. They didn’t even dare to face her head-on and gave up on us.” They had suffered a double loss and were pushed to the edge of a cliff. They could fall off the cliff at any time.

Wei Ling did not know what to say.

Firstly, that was her biological mother who had raised her.

Secondly, her mother had good intentions. She wanted to find them a backer who could compete with or even crush the Wei Family…

But things had come to this.

The atmosphere turned heavy.

Wei Ling weakly sat down and said with a livid expression, “Let’s look on the bright side. We might win tomorrow’s lawsuit. Qiao Nian is powerful, but Jiang Zongjin is powerless… He might not be able to produce evidence to prove his innocence! ”

Shen Jingyan was not as optimistic as her.

He did not say a word, but his heart was filled with despair.

He knew that even if could not win the lawsuit, Qiao Nian would definitely find out about them. When that day came, how could they escape?

Even if Qiao Nian did not mind, what about the person behind her?

His cell phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.

Now, even the slightest sound would frighten them. Shen Jingyan took his cell phone and saw the caller ID. He turned to them and said, “It’s Young Master Xu.”

“Why is he calling you at this hour?” Wei Ling looked puzzled.

“l don’t know.” Shen Jingyan stood up and walked to the side. “We’ll know once I take the call.’

Wei Ling waited to see what was going on.

Shen Jingyan did not say much during the entire call, but his expression got worse and worse. In the end, he replied with a pale expression, “1 understand.

Thank you, Young Master Xu.”

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Wei Ling immediately stood up and walked to him. “What did he say?”

Shen Jingyan gripped the phone tightly and looked at her hesitantly. After a while, dejected, he said, “Young Master Ye found out..”
