Chapter 1347: The Conspiracy Behind the Scenes (Part 4)

Shu Kaiqi’s eyes were filled with confusion, seemingly increasingly incomprehensible.

"Given Tiancheng’s ruthless and venomous nature, coupled with his deep-seated enmity with Bai Chenyao, forcing Bai Chenyao and Mu Tiantian to divorce, and then marrying Mu Tiantian after Bai Chenyao undertook a mission, if Bai Chenyao miraculously survives this time, what do you think will happen?"

What else could happen, if Bai Chenyao truly cares for Mu Tiantian, he will naturally find ways to win her back.

But if it was all revenge before, then... Shen Tiancheng marries Mu Tiantian, and that’s just that, marrying Mu Tiantian.

"If the one with Mu Tiantian now were you instead of Tiancheng, the Shu Family has too many vulnerabilities, which Bai Chenyao could exploit, and even the Mu Family might target the Shu Family."

"But it’s different with Tiancheng; he stands alone, backed by Shen Boyan, who isn’t related by blood but considers him a real father due to his mother, and the Shen Family, making it very difficult for Bai Chenyao to deal with him."

Shu Kaiqi’s hand tightly clenched into a fist.

Because he had many concerns, unlike Shen Tiancheng who was reckless and unrestrained, so despite having such a good opportunity, it fell into Shen Tiancheng’s hands.

"Commander, what if Tiancheng refuses to let her go?"

Lu Chengkuan obviously thought of this as well, smiling at Shu Kaiqi.

"I actually hope that he truly falls for Mu Tiantian, then I would have a piece to control him."

Watching Shu Kaiqi’s suddenly constricted pupils, Lu Chengkuan laughed again, shaking his head.

"But since I promised you before, I assure you, even if Shen Tiancheng indeed falls for Mu Tiantian later, I’ll find a way to make him let go!"

Seeing Shu Kaiqi still frowning, Lu Chengkuan mused for a moment, then slowly spoke: "His mother!"

Shu Kaiqi’s handsome face showed an incredulous expression.

"That once extremely popular singer?"

Lu Chengkuan nodded with a smile, remaining silent, as Shu Kaiqi muttered.

"Didn’t she already die from illness?"

Otherwise, why would Shen Tiancheng be so unrestrained?

But in an instant, Shu Kaiqi understood.

The so-called death was actually a ruse by Lu Chengkuan to deceive Shen Tiancheng, so that in necessary times, for instance when Lu Chengkuan couldn’t control Shen Tiancheng, then Shen Tiancheng’s mother became Lu Chengkuan’s trump card.

While Shu Kaiqi was shocked, a fear he had never felt before rose from the depths of his heart.

Even though he had the entire Shu Family behind him, what true loyalty was there in front of Lu Chengkuan?

The Shu Family, to Lu Chengkuan, was valuable, hence he supported them all along.

Shu Kaiqi even felt grateful, grateful that the Shu Family was a century-old pharmaceutical household, grateful for his and his father’s medical skills, which earned Lu Chengkuan’s trust.

Anxious that Lu Chengkuan might notice anything odd, Shu Kaiqi showed an expression of sudden realization.

"I see, Commander this move is executed brilliantly!"

Moreover, the move was years in the making, evidently starting over twenty years ago.

Thinking about how Lu Chengkuan maintained a neutral stance in politics over the years, a chill rose in Shu Kaiqi’s heart, surpassing the fear he felt earlier.

Knowing that Lu Chengkuan, with a seemingly kindly demeanor, was in reality, very shrewd, Shu Kaiqi struggled to suppress his inner chill and panic, showing an expression of surprise and deep admiration.

Lu Chengkuan smiled kindly: "One person playing well isn’t truly excellent, but needing every piece on the board to play flawlessly, only then can victory be secured, Kaiqi, don’t you agree?"
