Chapter 1045: Regret
"I was just doing someone a favor, passing on a message. How can that be considered betrayal?" Judy didn't fall for it. She shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Although I don't know the specific details, some things are better believed than not. Especially with Xuan'er's matter. If you're not careful, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. Isn't that right?"
Looking at Judy's casual look, Lin Yuqing felt filled with remorse.
How could he have been so soft-hearted as to take such a treacherous woman in? His ignorance had harmed Xuan'er, so why wasn't he the one being punished? Poor Xuan'er, suffering in the Xiao family because of her mother's fault, and he was powerless to do anything about it...
Lin Yuqing looked like she was about to eat someone, which made Judy smile playfully. "Hate me? Then I'll apologize to you. But the person who really wanted to harm you wasn't me. Even if it wasn't me who did it, someone else would have done it. So, instead of wasting time on picking a fight with me, you might as well spend some time finding the real murderer."
"Even if it was not your intention to kidnap Xuan'er, you are still the executioner! When the reckoning comes in the future, you will definitely have a share!" Lin Yuqing looked at Judy with gritted teeth, wishing she could rush up and beat her up right now.
Judy hadn't expected this woman to be so intimidating when she was powerful. She was stunned for a moment, then said guiltily, "Humph, what a foolish woman! I told you the truth out of kindness, but you turned the tables on me! Well, since you're determined to settle the score with me, then it's up to you. I want to see what happens to your beloved son!"
After saying that, Judy turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as she moved, Lin Yuqing called her.
"The person who sent someone here definitely wasn't Xiao Jincheng. If I tell Xiao Jincheng about this, how do you think he will deal with you?"
Judy paused for a moment, turned around, looked at Lin Yuqing, and said coldly, "I underestimated you before. I thought you were a naive woman, but I didn't expect you to be so devious!"
Staring at Judy without any emotion, Lin Yuqing said, "When dealing with people like you, you should use your own way, right?"
Seeing Judy's reaction, Lin Yuqing confirmed her guess.
As she slowly approached Judy, the fear in Lin Yuqing's heart gradually dissipated. She looked at Judy and said in a deep voice, "With your current abilities, you're not strong enough to break away from Xiao Jincheng. If Xiao Jincheng knew you betrayed him, how do you think he would treat you?"
"Hmph, don't try to provoke me. I won't be fooled!" Judy looked at Lin Yuqing provocatively and said, "I can do this because I must have the support of someone behind me. I don't need you to worry about my problems!"
"Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me, but you must know that I will never let you hurt my son! It's not too late to regret now. As long as you tell me everything you know, I can give you a way out!"
Looking at Lin Yuqing with amusement, Judy wanted to say something. But when she saw Lin Yuqing's serious expression, she was stunned, as if what this woman had just said was serious.
Shaking her head, Judy felt ridiculous that she was frightened by an unarmed woman.
Seeing Judy's hesitation, Lin Yuqing sneered, "I think you've been in the Xiao family for many years. With Lilith above you, you will never be able to make a name for yourself. I understand that you want to find another customer, but this cannot be an excuse for you to hurt my son!"
"As long as you're willing to help me, I'll find a way to protect you. Everything you did before can be written off. I can even give you enough money to live on for the rest of your life. If you don't cooperate with me, you'll not only offend the Xiao family, but will also be hunted down by Zhang Kaifeng! I think soon, there won't be a place for you here! After working so hard for so many years, only to end up with nothing, are you really willing to accept that?"
Pushing Lin Yuqing away irritably, Judy scolded: "That's enough, you don't need to talk anymore!"
"Are you scared? Didn't you say you had someone you could rely on? Why are you so shaken by just a few words?" Judy pushed her shoulder, and it hurt. But Lin Yuqing was happy inside. She looked at Judy fearlessly and said, "It seems you don't completely trust your partner. Why not work with me? I can do whatever I promise you!"
Judy hadn't expected this seemingly innocent woman to be so quick and sharp-tongued that even she was a little overwhelmed. Was this still the same delicate woman who had taken care of her before? What had happened in such a short time to cause such a drastic reaction?
Seeing Judy remained silent, Lin Yuqing knew she had disturbed her heart. Lin Yuqing hadn't thought she could convince Judy. But as long as she was wavering, there was a chance to find her flaws and follow the clues to find Xuan'er.
And the most important thing now is to go back and have a good discussion with Ming Yang, listen to his opinions, and see what tricks the Xiao family is playing this time.
Taking a deep breath, Judy didn't expect Lin Yuqing to be so difficult to deal with. She thought that she could scare Lin Yuqing by saying some harsh words, but she didn't expect that this woman would take advantage of her instead.
This warning to Lin Yuqing was indeed kept secret from Xiao Jincheng. Lin Yuqing was right. Judy had been suppressed by Lilith for many years, and now that Lilith was no longer as powerful as before, it was the perfect time for Judy to overtake. That was why she took the risk and partnered with Si Wen, leveraging Si Wen's power to move to Lilith.
Now that she was provoked by Lin Yuqing, Judy had no way back. She stared at Lin Yuqing fiercely and said, "You are still too naive to negotiate with me! Since I have chosen this path, I will not regret it. You don't need to waste your breath!"
"That's right, you chose the path yourself. Since you have been forced to this point, why not be bolder and take a different path? Maybe, you will get what you want." Lin Yuqing's eyes were firm. She seemed to have a powerful force that made her fearless.
Turning her head, Judy said coldly, "As you said, I've sacrificed a lot to get to where I am today, so I won't give up the opportunity I have. You don't need to waste your breath, just mind your own business."
Judy didn't want to waste any more time, and she was also worried that the woman would give her more reasons to waver, so she turned around and left.
"Hey, if you change your mind, you can always come to me. Remember, come with sincerity!"
Looking at Judy's back, Lin Yuqing did not give up the last chance and shouted to her. Lin Yuqing noticed Judy's slight pause, and a strange look flashed in her eyes.
