Chapter 744: Chapter 653: All Power Should Be Given to Feng Mu, Let Him Be the One...
Li Hanyu’s face twisted from one of resentment and venom to a kind of distorted delight, letting out low, neurotic laughter:
"So, Huan’Er, in the time to come, if Wang Xinfa hasn’t had his brain fried by anger, he won’t dare harm us one bit.
On the contrary, he’s probably going to become the most frightened person in the world that we mother and son encounter any ’accidents’!
Not only won’t he kill us, but he’ll also have to rack his brains to protect us. After all, we’re too close to the storm, and your MP father is just too close to us.
Hahaha—this is Destiny looking out for us, Destiny stands on our side amidst the ether."
Qian Huan moved his neck excitedly in the nutrient fluid, blinking hard but still worried, said:
"But the Member of Parliament definitely won’t sit idly by."
Li Hanyu composed her smile and said solemnly:
"That’s right, Wang Xinfa will definitely do something, surely laying down some secret trump card. Thus, we mother and son cannot be idle either.
The next period is the most dangerous for us, but also the most powerful for us.
We have to seize this time and do everything we can, not just do it, but do it with great fanfare, race against time with Wang Xinfa, and get things done.
Only then, when the storm passes, will we have a chance to hold new bargaining chips, making Wang Xinfa refrain from doing rash things, swallowing his anger back down, continuing to play the good father in front of others for you."
Qian Huan wished he could eat Wang Xinfa alive, but if given the chance, he would gladly call Wang Xinfa "dad" a few more times.
Qian Huan especially liked his mother’s words—"The more dangerous we are now, the stronger we become."
The feeling of walking a tightrope on the clouds was super exciting for someone like him who was immersed in the "fish tank" with only his head being able to move.
Qian Huan took a deep breath and said solemnly:
"Mom, I understand, the first step we need to take is for me to return to the Second Prison, back to the position of warden where I belong.
Only by sitting back in that chair and continuing with the ’Octagonal Cage Plan’ can I show others the qualifications and value I have to continue living."
A glint of approval flashed in Li Hanyu’s eyes, she nodded and said:
"Exactly, the Second Prison is now tied to the ’Octagonal Cage Plan,’ and it’s no longer something Wang Xinfa can call off.
As long as you return to the Second Prison as soon as possible and want to continue carrying out the plan, no one can bypass you."
However, she could not help but gaze back at the cold, gigantic fish tank, her tone turning serious and helpless:
"But for now, you cannot leave the fish tank, your physical recovery and the next surgery will need time.
So when you go back to the Second Prison, you have to rely heavily on Feng Mu and the Internal Inspection Department he established. You saw it today; the eyes of those two in the Internal Inspection Department had a certain light when looking at you. That kind of loyalty cannot be faked.
And with Feng Mu, say no more, he’s always been your most loyal confidant. During the time you were in a coma, mom has tested him over and over for you."
She paused, summarizing:
"His loyalty to you is beyond doubt, solid as a rock, never wavering in the slightest.
After returning to the Second Prison, you can gradually hand over power to him, let him act as your temporary limbs that can’t move."
At the mention of "Feng Mu," Qian Huan’s face subtly changed.
Recently, he’s been troubled by the same dream over and over.
The scenes in the dream were vividly clear as if personally experienced, and even after waking, the residual sensations and sounds lingered.
Now, whenever he thought of Feng Mu, a peculiar sentiment, both of longing and a vague fear, stirred uncontrollably in his heart.
Li Hanyu caught the strange look on her son’s face keenly, narrowing her eyes suspiciously:
"What’s wrong? You don’t trust Feng Mu?"
Qian Huan shook his head, ultimately not mentioning that mysterious dream, instead replying:
"It’s not that I don’t trust him, but..... Mom, didn’t you always teach me from a young age?
That people’s hearts are hard to fathom, and in the realm of power, you can’t ever trust anyone completely, always have to keep your guard up, even against those closest to you?
Feng Mu’s power is too great, could it be..."
Upon hearing his son’s concern, Li Hanyu sighed deeply, with inevitability wrapped in her sigh as well as an undeniable resolution:
"Huan’Er, what mom taught you before isn’t wrong, but our family isn’t what it used to be, even if you return to the Second Prison, you’d still be submerged in a fish tank. Mom can’t go and sit at the Second Prison for you either.
Right now, the only person we can absolutely trust is Feng Mu, so during this time, you must trust him as you trust your own limbs.
Your safety is tied to Feng Mu, the more unconditionally you trust him, the more with his life he will protect you, and the safer you will be."
Seeing the hesitation on her son’s face, Li Hanyu knew she must make things clear:
"Huan’Er, listen clear—after returning, you only need to be the warden that’s on the ’name card,’ act as the behind-the-scenes warden, and let Feng Mu be the actual warden of the Second Prison.
Feng Mu is trustworthy, and also manageable.
Crucially, he has no deep roots on the outside, no matter if you hand him the entire Second Prison, he remains your dog.
Loyalty and trust are the chains by which we hold him tightly, grasp this chain firmly, and he will forever be your dog, understand?"
