Chapter 652 Who is the Hunter?
Chapter 652 Who is the Hunter?
High up in the building, the cold wind is like a knife.
Inside the glass corridor, Lin Chuyue and Shen Yao sat across a table, with an untouched cup of black coffee in between them, reflecting their calm yet confrontational gazes.
"What do you want to talk about?" Lin Chuyue broke the silence, her tone calm yet authoritative.
Shen Yao rested her chin on her hand and lightly tapped the rim of her glass with her fingertips: "Lin Yun is in my hands."
Lin Chuyue remained expressionless. "Is she worth hundreds of millions?"
“She is Lin Zhengguo’s only publicly acknowledged ‘daughter,’ and the board resources she controls are not yet completely ineffective. You know what she represents.” Shen Yao smiled slightly. “Moreover—she knows the cause of your mother’s death.”
These words were like a sharp arrow piercing my heart.
Lin Chuyue's fingers tightened.
"Are you saying this to prove she's still useful, or to make me lose control?" She looked coldly at Shen Yao. "Unfortunately, I'm no longer the Lin Chuyue who would act impulsively."
Shen Yao scoffed: "You think I don't know your weakness? You're not heartless, you just hide your feelings too deeply."
“Lin Yun is your mirror.” She stared into Lin Chuyue’s eyes, her voice low and cold. “You hate her hypocrisy because you once lived such a miserable life; you hate her betrayal because you once treated her like family.”
Lin Chuyue suddenly stood up, her gaze icy: "Don't try to pry me open with psychology. Do you think I came here today to beg you to release them?"
“I’m here to tell you—from today onwards, Yuyuan Biotechnology has been taken over by the State Regulatory Commission, and you and Lin Yun are no longer qualified to control its lifeline.”
Shen Yao's smile slowly froze: "You touched it?"
“At 8 p.m. last night, the ISA Special Task Force froze all of her contracts with the ‘Extraterritorial Biological Foundation’ and opened an investigation for ‘involvement in illegal gene trading’.” Lin Chuyue stared at her every expression. “This was your clever plan, but in the end, it couldn’t escape my eyes.”
Shen Yao slowly stood up, her expression still calm, but no longer frivolous: "You are indeed not simple."
"Shen Fang's child is ultimately a cursed offspring of the Shen family."
Lin Chuyue gave a cold laugh: "My surname is Lin, not Shen. You've got the wrong idea."
"I am not here to avenge anyone, but to settle all the debts that everyone owes me."
At that moment, the glass door was pushed open with a loud bang.
Lin Yun, looking disheveled, was escorted into the corridor by two bodyguards. Her face was pale and there was blood on the corner of her lips, clearly indicating that she had been subjected to both psychological and physical stress.
Upon seeing Lin Chuyue, her eyes widened in shock, then flashed with anger: "You really came?"
Lin Chuyue didn't look at her, but said calmly to Shen Yao, "I'm taking her away."
Shen Yao nodded slowly, but raised her hand in a "please" gesture, "Okay, but I hope we can make a deal."
Lin Chuyue did not reply.
Shen Yao smiled and said, "I need the original copy of Lin Zhengguo's equity transfer agreement."
Lin Chuyue was silent for two seconds before slowly saying, "Do you think he would give me that kind of document?"
“He doesn’t believe you either.” Shen Yao’s eyes were sharp.
“But he’s afraid of you,” Lin Chuyue said, surprising everyone.
“You’re not the only one who knows the Shen family’s secrets, and you’re not the only one Shen Yanli left behind the key.” Her voice wasn’t loud, but it made Shen Yao’s expression change drastically.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yao's fingers tightened suddenly, and her hands, hidden in her sleeves, trembled.
"You... have already found that 'person'?" Shen Yao finally lost control and shouted in a low voice.
Lin Chuyue simply smiled slightly, turned to Lin Yun and said, "Let's go."
Lin Yun hesitated before standing up, gritting her teeth as she glanced at Shen Yao.
"She won't let you go," Lin Yun whispered. "She... is even more ruthless than Shen Fang."
Lin Chuyue said coldly, "I don't need her to let me go, I just want her to pay the price."
The moment she turned around, Shen Yao finally revealed a ferocious expression.
"Lin Chuyue!" she growled, "You think you've won? You're too naive!"
"You think I'm waiting for you to come and rescue people? No, I just want to see if you have the guts to risk your life for a traitor."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the alarm in the laboratory building suddenly went off!
When the red light flashes, the system automatically locks, and all exits are closed.
Lin Yun exclaimed, "Are you crazy?"
“You are no longer the pawn I want.” Shen Yao slowly stepped back. “But Lin Chuyue… you haven’t escaped this game yet.”
Suddenly, a beam of bright light fell from the ceiling—the ISA special operations team descended from above, forcibly breaking through the window and entering. Gunshots rang out, and the entire corridor descended into chaos!
Lin Chuyue was protected behind Li Zhanchuan—he had been guarding the outside all along.
In her shock, Shen Yao finally realized that this was not a spur-of-the-moment reaction from Lin Chuyue, but a trap that had been set up to lure her out!
"You dare to play me—!" Shen Yao lunged forward, her eyes bloodshot.
Lin Chuyue stopped and looked at Shen Yao, who had been pinned to the ground: "You think you're playing chess, but you haven't even seen the chessboard."
……
A few hours later, the special interrogation department of the Huadu military.
Lin Yun sat in the detention cell, looking as if her soul had been ripped out.
Lin Chuyue, standing opposite her, showed no pity: "You think you're only harming me, but you almost killed the entire Yuyuan project. Do you know how many lives that gene technology would take if it entered the gray market?"
"I..." Lin Yun's lips trembled, but she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
“Shen Yao used you, I warned you,” Lin Chuyue said coldly. “But you chose to believe her, betraying me, the Lin family, and yourself at all costs.”
Lin Yun suddenly burst into tears, just like that young girl who carefully tried to please her elders at the Lin family dinner table.
“I didn’t mean to hurt you… I just wanted to be needed, I just—wanted to win this time…”
Lin Chuyue closed her eyes.
"You can't win, because you don't deserve it."
Turning away, her tone was like a knife: "Wait for your trial."
……
Meanwhile, at a private hospital in Switzerland.
An elderly man opened his eyes, and the doctor beside him exclaimed excitedly, "Mr. Shen, you're finally awake!"
The person in the hospital bed was none other than Shen Yanli.
He looked out the window without saying a word, but slowly raised his hand and took off his oxygen mask.
"Give me a call, I want to see Lin Chuyue."
His voice was hoarse, yet it seemed to herald the coming of a true storm—
