My carefree life in space

Chapter 151 Dealing with Ning Ya

He recalled the days when he met and fell in love with An Sheng in the prime of his youth; her radiant smile was the most beautiful flower blooming in his heart. But later, everything changed.

Why? They started out in love, so why did it end up becoming a burden? Was it simply because of Ning Ya's instigation?

No, Lin Yu could not deceive himself.

When she hesitates to speak, if he asks one more question, could he resolve her inner conflict?

If he spends more time with her when she's emotionally unstable, will he be able to notice something's wrong?

If he had paid more attention to her physical condition when she was in a bad mental state, wouldn't he have been able to discover that she had been ambushed?

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs." At that time, he only thought that she didn't understand him and often lost her temper for no reason.

Later, he grew weary of this oppressive life and gradually became unwilling to see her. Until news of her death arrived.

When he heard the news, he simply couldn't believe it. How could a perfectly healthy person just suddenly disappear?

It wasn't until he saw her lying there lifeless that he realized the flower in his heart had withered forever, and he could never find it again.

He didn't even dare to look at the child she left behind, because seeing the child would remind him of her final appearance and his own wretchedness.

From then on, he hated himself and his parents. He did not refuse their arranged marriage with Ning Ya. Since someone was so eager to jump into his fire pit, he would grant her wish.

Lin Shushu saw Lin Yu's panic, but she felt no sympathy for him.

If you can't provide someone with a sense of security, don't provoke them. And if you do provoke them, don't just abandon them; that's a person's most basic responsibility.

For lovers who can't stay together in the end, parting amicably is the saddest outcome, but also the luckiest.

Under everyone's gaze, Lin Shushu walked up to Ning Ya, whose face was completely disfigured, and looked down at her.

Although Ning Ya was unable to speak due to the intense pain, she did not faint. Her eyes, as she looked at Lin Shushu, were filled with deep hatred and a hint of regret.

Lin Shushu understood what she meant, "Are you regretting leaving me as a hidden danger?"

Ning Ya's eyes narrowed, her panic stemming from the realization that her thoughts had been guessed.

"Oh dear, your expression reminds me. Do you think I should nip this in the bud?" Lin Shushu asked leisurely.

"No...don't..." Ning Ya used all her strength to say these words. She shook her head vigorously at Lin Shushu. At this moment, there was no longer any resentment in her eyes, only pleading.

"I have a pill here. It won't kill you, but it will make your internal organs feel like they're being gnawed by thousands of insects, causing excruciating pain. How about it? I'll give you a chance. If you take it, I'll let them go." Lin Shushu pointed at Lin Chenghui and the others.

Ning Ya looked terrified. She glanced at her children, who were all looking at her with concern.

“Okay… you… mean it…” Ning Ya quickly made her decision and looked at Lin Shushu.

She was indeed deeply concerned for her son, but Lin Shushu wouldn't soften her heart because of her decisiveness. A pill suddenly appeared in her hand, and she was about to give it to Ning Ya when a voice rang out.

"Wait, the sins of the mother are to be paid by the son. Can I take my mother's place?"

As soon as Lin Chengye spoke, he immediately drew everyone's attention to himself. He was completely unaware of this, and just stared at Lin Shushu with a firm gaze.

“I know my mother did something wrong and it’s unforgivable, but she has already been punished, and I will take the rest of the punishment for her.”

Lin Chenghui looked at his younger brother, then at his mother, and with a determined heart, said, "I'll do it. I'm the eldest son, so it should be my turn to pay off Mother's debts first."

Lin Yuting and Lin Yuwan's mouths moved slightly, but they ultimately said nothing.

"You may not know how potent this medicine is. You're willing to endure the pain of ten thousand insects gnawing at your heart?" Lin Shushu asked, somewhat surprised.

Lin Chenghui and Lin Chengye paused for only a second before nodding immediately.

Before Lin Shushu could speak, her hand was suddenly empty. It was Ning Ya who snatched the pill and swallowed it while everyone was watching.

Lin Shushu could certainly stop it, but that was her intention, so why should she stop it?

The drug took effect quickly, and Ning Ya's already distorted face became even more contorted. She clutched her chest in pain, curled up into a ball, rolled around, and kept wailing.

"Mom!" Lin Chenghui and the others immediately stepped forward, surrounded her, and called out to her with concern.

"Why...why did you break your promise?" Lin Chengye stood up and questioned Lin Shushu.

Did I say I agreed to your substitution?

Lin Chengye was taken aback. She had never actually agreed; it was just their assumption.

Looking at the Lin family members surrounding Ning Ya, Lin Shushu's eyes darkened. No matter how bad Ning Ya was, she still had children and grandchildren around her.

Her own grandmother was unable to be there for her son as he grew up, and she had no idea how lonely her son lived after she passed away, or even died young.

All of this was caused by Ning Ya.

Lin Shushu looked at the Lin siblings. They were indeed innocent, but the two people they brought into this world were not innocent either. How could they stand aside?

She never intended to kill them, but since everything they had was given to them by the Lin family, and the Lin family was the source of the tragedy, then she had to eliminate that source.

Lin Shushu took one last look at the people present, a look that sent chills down their spines. This girl's unpredictable methods were beyond their comprehension.

They couldn't understand how an ordinary girl could grow up to be so outstanding in such a short time, attracting not only the empire's youngest and most promising marshal, but also receiving special treatment from the royal family.

As Lin Shushu and Mo Ze walked towards the door, Lin Yu chased after them, "Child..."

Meeting Lin Shushu's cold gaze, he ultimately couldn't say anything more. What else could he say? For so many years, he hadn't fulfilled his responsibilities as a father and grandfather; what right did he have to stand before her now?

"Since you chose to ignore it in the first place, then continue to ignore it. Don't say anything about regretting it; it disgusts me."

After saying that, Lin Shushu left without looking back.

Back at the villa, Lin Shushu's mood hadn't improved. She was thinking about how to deal with the rest of the Lin family, and the entire Lin family.

Mo Ze saw through her thoughts, so he retrieved some data from his personal computer and zoomed in to show it to her.

"What is this?" Lin Shushu asked curiously as she examined it.

The more she looked, the more surprised she became. This was actually the recent operating status of the Lin family's businesses. Looking at the plummeting data and the rapidly shrinking market share, Lin Shushu had a sudden realization.

"You did this?"

Mo Ze smiled and nodded. Although Shu Shu said she wanted to take revenge herself, there were some things that would be more effective if he did them.

The "Yijiu" company, which opposes the Lin family, was established at his behest, with the sole purpose of destroying the Lin family. The effect is obvious; under the relentless pressure from the "Yijiu" company, the Lin family's business empire is now teetering on the brink of collapse.

Lin Shushu was touched; Mo Ze had done so much for her behind the scenes.

"Thank you!"

Mo Ze hugged her and whispered in her ear, "You never need to say thank you to me."
