320 Trump Card.

Even though Lee Xuiye was unhappy, Mo Lingtan ignored her unhappiness and continued with his talk with Dr. Si.

Dr. Si also agreed to proceed with her treatment after knowing the true intention of the couple and soon she prescribed a long list of dos and don't and many other things.

"The deal is between us. You shouldn't have involved Dr. Si in it." Lee Xuiye immediately complained to Mo Lingtan after coming out from Dr. Si's office.

"Don't take me as a fool, I know what is running in your little brain. I am here only because of your wish, so don't push my limit." Mo Lingtan warned which shut Lee Xuiye's mouth but didn't subside her anger. 

As she was determined that she wouldn't give up and he was also determined that he wouldn't let her suffer.

Afterward, the couple went back to their home while they continued with their cold war but in between Yue Wanwan called Mo Lingtan to meet. So, Mo Lingtan dropped Lee Xuiye back at Gold Empire and rushed to Xia Xiulen's grave where Yue Wanwan was waiting for him.

---

The sun's sparkling rays were cast everywhere in this winter season as a ray of hope in this cold weather. Even though the year was going to end soon and the winter season was already here, City B was not as cold as other cities on the north side of the country.

The year end was a joyful occasion for many people so not many people were here in this cemetery.

Yue Wanwan's lonely figure was standing in front of the grave where Xia Xiulan's smiling photo was placed on it.

Yue Wanwan white hair and wrinkled face made her vulnerable. A coat was wrapped on her shoulders to protect her from the cold breeze but no one knew that her heart had already been frozen in coldness.

It had been five years since Xia Xiulan's death, but all the things seemed to happen as if it had happened yesterday…

...

'Xiulan, why can't you understand? He doesn't love you.'

'Wanwan, even though he doesn't love me. This child is a part of my body, how can I give up on this?'

'If you don't give up on it, your life will be in danger. You need to listen to me.'

'Please Wanwan, I beg you. Let me have this child, I won't let anyone know about it. This child will be my only kin, I can't lose it. Please…Please Wanwan...I beg you.'

…

A hot drop of tear rolled down on the back of her hand, Yue Wanwan lamentingly sighed and wiped her tears. She hated herself for giving in in front of Xia Xiulan's pleading. If she didn't give in, then Xia Xiulan would have still been alive.

Yue Wanwan never forgot the day where she made the worst decision of her life, Xia Xiulan's life, and for that child's life...

Lee Chang-You's mistake was a big learning point for Yue Wanwan that she made sure that she would never let Lee Chang-You's mistake happen again, but things had happened differently.

These things also made Yue Wanwan realize how she had failed to manage her artist, that made Yue Wanwan give up as a manager.

She knew that many people were disappointed with her decision but giving up was the only option she had.

Only God knew how long had passed since Yue Wanwan immersed herself in her sorrow until she heard a voice "Yue Wanwan."

Without looking back, Yue Wanwan knew whose voice it was.

After a while, Yue Wanwan calmed down her emotions and said without looking back. "You must be wondering why all of a sudden, I agreed to help you after so many years."

"Since you already know my question why don't you answer it for me?" Mo Lingtan calmly responded and kept the white rose onto Xia Xiulan's grave.

Yue Wanwan faintly smiled in a lamented while she was recalling her memories instead of answering his question, "Xiulan is my second artist after Chang. Chang's incident hurt me a lot, that I never treated Xiulan in a good way but she never complained and never left from my side. Her determination for acting regained my confidence as well. Afterward, I thought that if I manage her properly we will go till the end, but I was wrong..."

"And Xia Xiulan's incident made you realize that you are a failure, that's why you left Xuiye's side." Mo Lingtan completed her sentence.

"Hmm...but I am glad she didn't end up like them all thanks to you." Yue Wanwan replied with a self-mocking smile while looking at him.

"So you are agreeing to help me because I helped Xuiye to deal with the Wang Family?" Mo Lingtan wonderingly asked.

"No. I agreed to help you because you helped her to gain her trust in you."

Mo Lingtan was startled for a moment to hear her reply. He did what a husband should need to do but unknowingly it helped him.

Great!

Well, what more could he say regarding this?

"Since you are impressed with me, why don't you tell me who killed Xia Xiulan?" Mo Lingtan straightforwardly asked as he wasn't interested to listen to Yue Wanwan's life failure story.

Yue Wanwan understood his intention and in fact, she wasn't interested to recall her wrong decision which only made her feel guilty but she couldn't help it. "I will tell you but before that, you have to sign this agreement to help me first." Yue Wanwan handed him a file.

Mo Lingtan frowned and took the file to read it. 

Lee Xuiye had mentioned to him that Yue Wanwan wanted to help him but in exchange, she wanted Mo Lingtan to help her. 

Mo Lingtan didn't know what kind of help Yue Wanwan was asking for but he was sure that if he didn't get any useful information from Yue Wanwan, he wouldn't help her.

Unexpectedly, Yue Wanwan came with extra preparation to make Mo Lingtan agree with the terms of this agreement before revealing her trump card.
