"You really are good at cursing people in a roundabout way."
"I'm not cursing anyone. I'm just speaking the truth—both about myself and you, Miss Ouyang Huanshi."
Chu Moyin twirled her hair with her fingers. "I know you guys won't trust me, so why don't you send two people we both trust to watch over us? That way you won't have to worry about us cheating."
"In that case, there's only one candidate—?"
Her past self had obviously accepted this proposal and was about to turn her gaze towards someone who was not very trustworthy, but Chu Shangli interrupted her here -
"Yes, there is only one candidate - that is Gong Yitian and the young master."
"Huh?" Chu Shangli's eyes flickered: "Do you mean to say that Brother Fan can't be trusted?"
"I didn't say that—"
"But, if I limit myself to one person I can trust..."
"It's not me who limits you to one person, it's you who limits you to one person—" Chu Shangli said calmly: "I didn't say that only one of you is trustworthy. However, if we follow your conditions, I think the only one who meets the requirements is Young Master Gongyi—"
"It's not Brother Fan..."
"I don't know what Wei Shengfan's character is like, but if he's your fiancé, there's a chance he might be hiding something, right? Even the most noble of characters have weaknesses. If you think Wei Shengfan likes you, then you'll naturally consider yourself his weakness."
“…”
"Of course, my understanding doesn't mean anything. Why don't you all raise your hands?" Chu Shangli raised the corner of his lips, turned around and asked, "Everyone, please vote. Who do you think is more trustworthy as the monitor? Is it Master Wei Shengfan or Master Gong Yitianhe? If you think it's the former, please raise your left hand - if you think it's the latter, please raise your right hand -"
When Chu Shangli finished speaking, most people made a decision immediately.
It's not a herd mentality, but a completely thoughtless one—
It was an overwhelming victory for Gong Yitianhe.
"Ha, that's no wonder." Chu Shangli snorted, "After all, the Gongyi family is more powerful, and they're allied with the Ouyang and Zishu families. Most people really just curry favor with the powerful—"
"If we talk about individual forces, the Weisheng family is actually no weaker than the Gongyi family. The alliance between the Weisheng family and the Chu family is no weaker than the marriage between the Gongyi family and the Ouyang family—"
Feng Ruye pushed the frame of his glasses with his middle finger. "Of course, if we take each member individually, then they are indeed incomparable... whether it's Wei Shengfan and Gong Yi Tianhe, or you and Miss Ouyang—"
Feng Ruye was telling the truth.
Before, when I didn't know why the Chu family could become a big family, I always thought that the Chu family was weaker than other families.
However, after hearing some secrets from Gong Yi Tianhe, he suddenly understood why the Chu family could be compared with other families.
Perhaps in terms of qualifications, the Chu family is indeed not comparable to other families, but because they are cleaning up for other families underground, they can be said to have countless handles - this makes all families regard them as powerful teammates, but also as a thorn in their side -
The delicate balance on the triangular steel wire, once cut, would indeed cause a tilt that would be even more terrible than the marriage between the Ouyang family and the Gongyi family.
Well, if you are looked down upon, you should look for the reason within yourself.
When his family was seen as a strong alternative for alliance and a terrible existence that should be eliminated at any time, he did not consider checks and balances, but instead forced other families to form an alliance. His own stupidity was obvious.
However, now is still not the right time - it is obvious that the Chu family still has value that can be used by other families -
