Upon hearing these words, Chen Guo was sowhat stunned. She naturally wanted to be the young mistress of the Lin Family, but the lady boss of the Belle Group? That was sothing she dared not even dream of.
Moreover, wasn't the Belle Group currently under the control of President Lin?
Furthermore, the recent company announcent had been made, and President Lin had beco the largest controlling shareholder of the group, giving him absolute control over it!
When Chen Guo expressed her doubts, Lin Chao imdiately laughed, saying aningfully,
"What if President Lin were no longer around?"
Chen Guo, of course, understood Lin Chao's subtext and beca scared instantly...
Chen Guo guessed that Lin Chao's words ant he was planning to move against Lin Ruoxue, but what she hadn't expected was that Lin Chao would actually ask her to do the deed!
A young girl like Chen Guo would never dare to do such a thing, especially since Lin Ruoxue had always treated her well, guiding and supporting her at every turn.
After Chen Guo refused, Lin Chao continued to tempt her with beautiful promises. It must be said, his description was indeed very enticing.
But the mont Chen Guo thought about harming soone, and that soone being Lin Ruoxue, she still shook her head and refused.
She even tried to persuade Lin Chao to give up, for after all, murder was a capital offense.
However, seeing that Chen Guo was still stubborn, Lin Chao's deanor changed abruptly as he began to threaten and intimidate her, yet still she refused to agree.
Eventually, Lin Chao dialed a number and turned on the speakerphone.
Chen Guo never imagined that Lin Chao would actually have her parents kidnapped, and from the phone, she could feel her parents' terror and fear!
Chen Guo was a smart and clever girl; she suddenly realized that Lin Chao's interest in her was not because he liked her but because she was Lin Ruoxue's secretary, convenient for his sche!
But she understood too late. Now that her parents were in his control, what could she do? She could only agree, terribly afraid.
Afterward, Lin Chao handed her a chocolate, telling her Lin Ruoxue liked chocolates. He instructed her to say it was a gift from a classmate, and since she didn't like chocolate, she was passing it on to her.
Though terrified, she could only nod her head with tears in her eyes, knowing that this box of chocolates was surely President Lin's death warrant.
Seeing that she had agreed, Lin Chao reassured her, saying that as long as she did what was asked, he would definitely let her parents go.
Though Chen Guo had her doubts about his honesty, she had no choice but to comply.
But Chen Guo kept her wits about her and, seeing that Lin Ruoxue was in trouble, she imdiately ducked out of sight of the caras and hid in a corner of the parking lot.
She thought that if Lin Chao truly intended to release her and her parents, it wouldn't matter if she hid. However, if he never planned to let them go, her being alive would be a deterrent to him, fearing that she might desperately go to the police!
It was this realization that made her hide before Lin Chao's people noticed.
And she hid in the Belle Building's parking lot of all places!
To a regular person, if they realized the danger, they would flee as far as possible and would never consider that she might still be in the Belle Building!
It was also for this reason that Lin Chao couldn't find her.
After listening to Chen Guo's entire account, Su Chen could not help but marvel at the girl's exceptional cleverness!
And indeed, the facts were not far off from his own guess; the incident was related to this girl, and she was indeed being coerced.
"Brother Su, please, save my parents. I'll do anything you want. I can turn myself in to the police imdiately, and I can testify against Lin Chao!"
Chen Guo clutched at Su Chen's lower legs, pleading desperately.
Su Chen sighed deeply as he looked at the pitiful Chen Guo:
"Get up, I promise you!"
"Thank you, Brother Su, thank you, Brother Su, thank you!"
Chen Guo exclaid with imnse excitent.
Su Chen felt his heart growing softer by the mont, although Chen Guo was forced into her situation and was actually a victim.
But with his previous criminal thods, not killing her would have already been an act of rcy, so why would he agree to save her parents?
After all, she was the one who caused Lin Ruoxue to nearly lose her life, regardless of her innocence or guilt!
But now, it seed Su Chen could no longer be so cold-blooded and uninquiring. He didn't know whether this was a good or a bad thing for him!
"Brother Su, I will go to the police station and turn myself in right away, but as for President Lin..."
Chen Guo said with so trepidation.
"Don't worry, President Lin is now out of life-threatening danger,"
Su Chen said indifferently. If Lin Ruoxue had really died, even if he were more compassionate, he wouldn't have spared Chen Guo, the little girl!
"That's wonderful!"
Upon hearing the news, Chen Guo imdiately leapt up, her eyes shining with surprise.
The tornt of the past few days was not only fear but also deep guilt. Hearing from Su Chen that President Lin was not dead, she felt a huge weight lift from her heart.
To ensure Chen Guo's safety, he drove her to Ye i's place. Although Ye i had officially joined the right side of the law, she was once a figure in the Jianghai underground, so protecting a young lady should not be a big problem.
After settling the young girl Chen Guo, Su Chen imdiately drove towards the Lin Family ancestral ho.
Finding Chen Guo was not to have her bear witness to anything, but just to confirm the truth of the matter. Once he knew the truth, everything else would be easier for him to handle.
.....
At this ti, in the great hall of the Lin Family ancestral ho, an ergency family eting was being held!
However, this family eting was missing a few people; for instance, the old master Lin, the four mbers of Lin Wenqing's family, Lin Ruoxue's brother Lin Hao, who was still out of town, and Lin Wenting, who was handling her private affairs in Yandu.
Apart from these individuals, the rest of the Lin Family had all gathered, now seated around the long table in the hall, discussing sothing...
"Ladies and gentlen, you all know the situation of our Lin Family now. The old master and Ruoxue are in the hospital. The old master is aged and even if not hospitalized, he no longer has the energy to manage the group's affairs."
Lin Wenlong glanced around at everyone and said:
"Originally, the old master had entrusted the group to Ruoxue. Although Ruoxue is a woman, and that may seem slightly improper, her ability is beyond doubt. Everyone has seen the developnt of the group in recent years, so I have no objections to this."

"However, now that Ruoxue has also fallen, and although she is out of mortal danger, she remains in a coma, with no known ti for awakening."
Lin Wenlong continued, his face showing a clear expression of sorrow:
"But a group of dragons cannot be without a head, especially not a group as large as Belle Corporation. So many important decisions need to be made every day, and the business world changes in the blink of an eye; without a leader, it simply won't do."
