Chapter 647 The Gun Behind the Scenes
Lin Chuyue took a deep breath to calm herself. She didn't want to show anger in front of Lin Zhengguo, as that was exactly the emotion he was best at manipulating.
She slowly sat down, her gaze sharp as a knife.
"Your real purpose in coming back is to take over the remaining resources of the Shen family, isn't it?"
Lin Zhengguo did not deny it, and said casually, "The Shen family has split. Yanli's faction has been severed by you, and Shen Fang's lineage has also been destroyed. The current situation is chaotic, which is a good time to reorganize."
"You want to become the head of the Shen family again?" Lin Chuyue sneered. "But you've already left the Shen family and changed your surname to Lin."
“A surname is just a label. Whoever has resources and prestige can sit in that position.” Lin Zhengguo leaned forward. “And you are still too green.”
Lin Chuyue's eyes narrowed: "You've come back, do you want to control me, or destroy me?"
Lin Zhengguo looked directly at her: "If you obediently hand over the ledgers left by Shen Fang, the overseas funding channels of Vision Capital, and the 'internal investigation document' in Li Zhanchuan's hands—I naturally won't touch you."
"You overestimate me," Lin Chuyue said coldly. "Even if I hand it over, you won't let me go. You're afraid I'll become the second Shen Fang, and even more afraid that I'll rebuild the Shen family's main storyline behind the scenes."
"Unfortunately, it's too late for you."
She slowly stood up, took a document from her bag, and pushed it onto the table.
"This is a letter of authorization. The three trust companies of the Shen family in Switzerland have signed a co-management agreement. Starting today, the Shen family's assets are subject to a freeze procedure—no one can use even a single penny without the dual authorization of me and Chen Yulan."
Lin Zhengguo's expression changed drastically.
"you dare--"
“I’m no longer the little girl you used to be who could be manipulated at will.”
Lin Chuyue said coldly, "You taught me how to be ruthless, so I'll return the favor."
The atmosphere became tense for a moment.
Lin Zhengguo squinted at her, stared for a long time, and then suddenly smiled.
"So you were on guard against me all along."
Lin Chuyue turned around: "You made me realize that blood ties are never a protective umbrella, but rather a hunter's collar."
She turned and left, the door slamming shut behind her. Lin Zhengguo stood up, abruptly sweeping all the teaware off the table, and coldly ordered the people behind him: "Contact 'Night Owl' and activate Plan B—if she refuses to hand it over, then force her."

Meanwhile, in the suburbs of Linhai City.
Li Zhanchuan stood in front of a secluded villa, with Gu Yanchuan and Lin Chuyue's newly transferred bodyguards beside him.
Gu Yanchuan frowned as he looked at the dark iron door in front of him.
"Are you sure this is Shen Fang's backup base?"
“This is the place where she instructed the film company to deliver a batch of drugs a month ago,” the bodyguard replied. “We tracked the delivery route and found it here.”
Li Zhanchuan kicked the door open.
The room was dimly lit, filled with the smells of disinfectant and herbs, as well as a faint metallic odor.
They cautiously entered the basement, and suddenly the lights came on.
Dozens of transparent glass capsules lined both sides, each containing a sleeping "Lin Yun"—the faces were identical, and the expressions were serene.
Gu Yanchuan's pupils contracted sharply.
"Is she replicating her personality?"
Li Zhanchuan said coldly, "No, it's about preparing for a personality replacement."
They approached the central control panel, where a screen displayed neural circuit diagrams and a large amount of biometric data.
"This is... a personality transplant template."
Gu Yanchuan's expression changed drastically: "This is not only Shen Fang's backup plan, but also one of Shen Yanli's core technologies. They are trying to create 'immortals'."
Li Zhanchuan's gaze was icy: "These people must be destroyed immediately."
He raised his hand and dialed a phone: "Notify the ISA (International Security Agency) that this is an illegal bioethical experiment and request that the site be cleared."
Just then, the system suddenly emitted a piercing alarm sound, and a line of red text flashed on the screen:
"Intrusion detection - Night Owl system activated, countermeasures initiated."
A beam of red light shot out from the wall, the surrounding security system activated, and the liquid inside the glass chamber vibrated violently, as if something was awakening.
Gu Yanchuan was horrified: "They've set a trap!"
Li Zhanchuan drew his gun: "Retreat!"
They had just rushed out of the basement when an explosion struck like an earthquake—glass shattered behind them, red liquid gushed out in all directions, and some of the "Lin Yuns" suddenly opened their eyes, their pupils flashing with an eerie silver light.
Lin Chuyue had just connected with Li Zhanchuan on the phone when she heard a muffled thud before the explosion.
"Hello? Li Zhanchuan?!"
The phone was disconnected.
Her heart tightened, but she quickly regained her composure and immediately turned to order: "Activate Eagle Eye tracking, access all satellite cameras in the coastal area. I need to know his location."
Chen Yulan called at that very moment: "Your father has contacted people in the Federation and wants to transfer Shen Fang's file backup in Europe. Chuyue, you must make a decision immediately—otherwise, if that information falls into his hands, you will completely lose the initiative."
Lin Chuyue gritted her teeth: "Let's go, to the port airport immediately. He will definitely not take the open route."
**
Half an hour later, outside the port.
Lin Chuyue's car sped to a stop, and she could see Lin Zhengguo boarding a private yacht in the distance.
She quickly stepped forward and blocked his path.
"You won't succeed."
Lin Zhengguo glanced at her and actually laughed: "You think I came here in person for these files?"
"I'm here to make you completely expose your identity. The bloodline of the Shen family must rot in the sunlight, not be reborn in the shadows."
As soon as he finished speaking, several men in black surrounded him—guns pointed directly at Lin Chuyue.
"This father-daughter conflict ends here."
But just as Lin Zhengguo raised his hand, he heard a cold laugh from not far away.
"is it?"
Li Zhanchuan arrived, covered in blood, with his gun already pointed at Lin Zhengguo's forehead.
Lin Chuyue turned around abruptly and saw him walking out of the darkness step by step, covered in wounds, his eyes sharp as blades.
"She is not alone."
