Chapter 207 The Leverage

"Alright, alright, I promise you, I promise you, get up first!"

Lin Jiashan agreed somewhat angrily.

Hearing that he had finally agreed, Qian Shumei stopped kowtowing and, supported by Lin Jiashan's arm, stood up.

For those without money, in the face of money, illness was non-existent.

No matter how unwell one felt mentally, upon hearing that a lot of money was involved, they could always muster some spirit. Qian Shumei was no exception. If her illness hadn't been discovered during this hospital stay, she wouldn't have known about it at all.

Moreover, after that bout of dizziness, she felt no particular discomfort.

Just as she was about to sit back on the bed, Lin Jiashan's phone screen lit up, displaying a short message: "Darling, waiting for you, the red wine is ready!"

Lin Jiashan saw it too and immediately shoved his phone into his pocket.

"I have some company matters to attend to later. You should take a taxi home and don't let Xiao Mei worry. As for whether to treat the illness, you should think it over carefully. You haven't been around for the past two days, so tell her you've gone back to your hometown. You told me that before you left."

Lin Jiashan instructed.

Qian Shumei nodded. Following her woman's intuition, she suspected her boss had something going on.

It was already evening, what kind of company matters could be resolved with red wine? Coupled with that disgusting endearment at the beginning, Hao Yumei had never called him that before.

Not long after Lin Jiashan left, Qian Shumei went to handle her discharge.

Regarding the treatment, she still had to consider it. After all, her child's tuition required a large sum of money, and her own contributions were limited. Unless she could acquire a large sum of money, otherwise... ultimately, she could only live day by day.

Qian Shumei returned to the Lin family. Bai Suxiang was unaware, as they hadn't been in touch for a long time.

Liu Sandao had already arranged a better hotel for her. Upon checking in, Bai Suxiang used her own phone to thoroughly inspect the room.

She didn't want to experience being monitored again.

Liu Sandao was constantly monitoring the Lin family's movements, sensing that their target this time was likely the Lin family. Although he couldn't fully grasp what would happen in the future, two souls were always lingering around the Lin family, suggesting something significant was at play.

"Tell me, should we still contact Qian Shumei? People like her are both hateful and pitiable."

Bai Suxiang mumbled.

If they didn't contact her, they would have nothing to do. If they did, remembering what she had done to them, she wished she could skin her alive and tear out her sinews. Sudan Novel Network.

"Of course."

Liu Sandao replied with certainty.

Bai Suxiang felt a pang of resentment. She hated that he showed no chivalry and didn't care about her feelings at all.

"Then how should we contact her? You're not suggesting I contact her first, am I? I'd rather die!"

Bai Suxiang feigned anger.

In reality, she was just sulking, deliberately adopting a passive attitude towards the matter.

"Don't worry, there will be a suitable time."

Liu Sandao answered calmly.

He had already planned to take the initiative, though he needed to avoid direct confrontation with the souls.

In the past, he always waited for things to happen and then went to put out fires guided by the "Book of Blessings." Now, it was different. Taking the initiative would put him in a more advantageous position, allowing him to act ahead of his opponents.

Therefore, he paid close attention to every event happening in the Lin family.

The day after Qian Shumei returned to the Lin family, Hao Yumei placed some clothes that needed washing in the laundry room, instructing her to wash them and put them in the clothes recycling bin by the door.

When Qian Shumei returned, she noticed that there were several old clothes recycling bins placed in front of the courtyard gate.

They were sorted into several boxes, one of which had the words "Donation to Poverty-Stricken Areas."

It seemed Hao Yumei intended to donate these clothes, which was why she had instructed her to wash them clean.

"Are these clothes also to be thrown away? These seem to be new!"

Hearing Qian Shumei's words, Hao Yumei, who was about to leave the laundry room, turned back to look.

"Ah? What am I thinking. This one is not needed. This was bought by Jiashan not long ago, he's only worn it a few times. Remember to put it in his cabinet after you wash it!"

Hao Yumei said before leaving.

Qian Shumei picked up the garment and rummaged through its pockets.

This was a mandatory step before washing clothes. Otherwise, if there happened to be a small note or something, it would surely stick to the fabric.

The Lin family itself was in the clothing business. Their clothes were very tasteful and all branded, each piece being expensive.

Qian Shumei did not overlook these details.

It was a black casual outfit. The right pocket felt slightly bulging, so Qian Shumei reached in and felt something. Indeed, there was something.

She had intended to casually toss it into the trash bin, but then her eyes caught the words "Medical Report."

Qian Shumei immediately tensed up. Could it be hers? Hao Yumei absolutely could not know about this.

The fewer people who knew about her having cancer, the better.

She looked nervously, but a name appeared on it: Chi Lanxiang.

Upon closer inspection, she realized it was a pregnancy report.

Qian Shumei hesitated, then, connecting it with the message Lin Jiashan had received earlier, this was undoubtedly evidence of his wrongdoing.

"Should I tell Hao Yumei? Such a good woman, how heartbroken would she be if she knew her husband had betrayed her? Furthermore, if she found out and chose to divorce, wouldn't this family fall apart? Would I still be able to stay then?"

With such concerns, Qian Shumei ultimately chose to hide it secretly. It was better to cause less trouble.

However, she was unaware that Chi Lanxiang had intentionally placed this item for Lin Jiashan. She wanted to indirectly provoke Hao Yumei and decided she could no longer wait; she had to firmly grasp Lin Jiashan.

Lin Jiashan also only learned about the paper when he left Chi Lanxiang's place early in the morning.

Although he was angry, he couldn't afford to dwell on it and rushed back home.

Upon entering, he saw Qian Shumei washing clothes. He panicked, threw his briefcase on the sofa, and rushed towards the laundry room.

"Wait! My clothes!"

Chi Lanxiang had specifically told him that the examination slip was in the right pocket of the black top bought in France.

But when he saw it, the clothes had just been put in, Qian Shumei had just closed the door, and all the washing programs had started.

"Quick, quick, get my clothes out. I... I..."

Lin Jiashan ran a few steps, gasping for breath.

"But I've already put them in. They're already wet, and I can't wear them even if I take them out now."

Qian Shumei deliberately acted as if she knew nothing, but Lin Jiashan was still a little flustered.

"Come here, I need to ask you something!"

Lin Jiashan grabbed Qian Shumei's shoulder, completely disregarding the force he was using. He was only anxious about the contents of the clothes.

"Last night when you came back, you didn't say anything, did you? Don't worry, I've already paid your son's tuition for you."

"No, of course not. Thank you, boss, thank you, boss!"

Hearing that her son's tuition had been paid, Qian Shumei replied immediately, ignoring the pain.

"Did you check the pockets before washing the clothes?"
