The Villain's Wife

Chapter 207 Psychological Problems

Yang Lina immediately tried to call Xuan Hui to ask him not to do anything drastic. Now that Yang Lina is sure that Lily is targeting Xuan Hui, she's decided to go back to Hong Kong to protect her son. Unbeknownst to her, Lily has already laid down a trap for Yang Lina.

Hong Kong is just a few hours drive from the Yang Mansion in Mainland China. Throughout the ride, Yang Lina was thinking of a way to get back at Lily. Since the Yang Family has already abandoned her, she needs a new method to deal with a woman like Lily. Of course, using Tang Lingyun was her first plan. Or maybe she could attempt to dispose of Lily. Realistically, that would be hard to do with Zhuo Jingren around.

"Why did you stop?" Yang Lina asked her driver when she noticed the deceleration of the car.

"Police officers," the driver answered shortly, making Yang Lina look at the uniformed men approaching their car. Right now Yang Lina was still in China, but she was about to cross the border between China and Hong Kong. It is normal for various authorities to police this segment near the border, however, Yang Lina couldn't help but wonder why these men would stop her.

"Is there a problem?" she immediately asked the moment she opened the window of her car.

"Good Morning. Can you please show us some proof of your identity?" the police officer respectfully said.

"Sure, no problem." She immediately took some ID from her bag. While she is no longer a part of the Yang Family, the public is still unaware of this matter. Once the police officers know that she is from the Yang household, they will surely immediately apologize for disturbing her ride. However, when she saw the police officer whispering something to his companions, worry lines creased Yang Lina's brow. "Is there a problem? I am Yang Lina, the only daughter of retired General Yang from Guangzhou."

"Miss Yang, can you please accompany us to the nearest station? We have some important questions to ask you," the older policeman framed the order as a polite request.

"About what? Why would you invite me to a police station? Do you know who my father is? My husband is a legislator in Hong Kong. If this gets out, it could affect both of our reputations!" she said.

"Miss Yang, please don't cause any more trouble. We are just going to ask you some questions about a murder. No need to panic, it is merely protocol."

"Murder? Whose murder?" Yang Lina's hands slightly trembled. Did Lily decide to tell the police about what happened seven years ago? But wouldn't that be too dumb? Lily had no evidence. The doctors who killed Bec Facci were in hiding, and none of the hospital personnel know anything about this. Moreover, this happened seven years ago, and Lily only knew this yesterday. How could she go to the police and tell them about it?

"We can continue the conversation at the police station. If you don't …"

"Alright, Alright! I am coming, but I am not going to ride in any of your police cars. Go ahead, we will follow you to the station." Seeing the police officer gave her a look, Yang Lina continued. "I know the law! I won't run away as I am innocent. Why are you giving me that look? Do you think I will evade the law? My father is a great general in this country! I will not dirty his family name!"

Slowly the police officer nodded as he signaled his men to return to their police cars and head to the police station with Yang Lina in tow.

…..

Meanwhile, Lily was staring directly at Yang Jing, making him extremely uncomfortable.

"President Zhuo, are you just going to stare at me all day?" he said while avoiding Lily's gaze.

Yang Jing had met all types of women since he started working in the military. He had seen women who would try to use their beauty to manipulate men, women who thought that all men wanted was their bodies. These women would use their angelic beauty to try and exploit men's weaknesses.

Then there was the gentle yet scheming woman commonly referred to a white lotus, the type of woman who could make men bow down to her exquisite weakness. This type of woman can boost men's egos by being so weak that every male would have the natural instinct to protect them, inflating their opinion of themselves as big, strong protectors..

Then there were those dumb, funny ones who would stumble over every stone, exasperating men to the point of falling in love with them.

Yang Jing had also met with some domineering women who thought that they were equal to men. They would use every means possible to prove this point and would end up challenging every man that they come across. 

There are also those exceptionally arrogant women who think too highly of themselves, looking down on everyone as if they were blessed by the gods. Women who believe that their beauty and brains are always one step above those of ordinary people.

Yang Jing had also acquainted himself with the type of heroic women who can't stand injustice and would always protect whoever it is that had been bullied. These women perpetually stand in the path of righteousness, thinking that what they are doing is always right. These are the  women who love to keep quiet and observe things while waiting for people to offend them, then they would unleash chaos and obliterate everyone who hurt them.

Then there are those mysterious women who come from prestigious families, always acting as if they are always one step ahead of everyone, silently scheming and observing, then analyzing everyone's actions. Smart, but too arrogant.

Then finally there is the smart and scheming woman who is the faithful assistant or the 'woman behind the great man'. These are the women who toil on behalf of famous people. No one ever acknowledges their efforts, and very few people know that they are the brains behind some of the most brilliant ideas ever created.

Yang Jing had spent the whole night thinking about which type of woman Lily is. He wanted to analyze and categorize her as one of these women, but no matter what he does, he can't seem to decide on this matter.

To Yang Jing, Lily is cold… too cold. The latter did not even bat an eyelash when he told her about Bec Facci's death. Instead, she continued talking to him as if she did not just discover the cause of her mother's death. To Yang Jing, a normal woman would have lost control of her emotions, lashed out at him, or maybe used her influence to attack the Yang Family overnight.

With Lily's influence, this would be the most natural solution for her. Everyone in the business world already considered her to be ruthless. Moreover, she has a powerful husband backing her. Destroying a family would not be a big deal for Lily. Yang Jing had been thinking of all the things that Lily could do to avenge her mother, yet she didn't do any of those things.

Was she really that unfeeling? Did she even shed a tear because of her mother's death? Yang Jing knew that Lily had been to a mental facility before. This made him wonder if he was talking to someone with psychological problems. If so… wouldn't that be scarier?
