The Lin family's house was very large, like a maze.
After escaping, Chen Jiayi kept circling around the Lin family's house.
She didn't know where she was. Looking at the rooms in front of her, Chen Jiayi fell silent.
Then, she pushed open the door to the room in front of her.
Chen Jiayi saw someone inside, and after hesitating, she took a few more steps forward. When she saw who it was, she was immediately shocked.
"Lin Chen'an, Du Guizhi?"
Du Guizhi made muffled noises, and from her anxious expression, it seemed she was pleading for help.
Chen Jiayi walked up to Du Guizhi and grabbed the gag that was covering his mouth.
"Miss Chen! We never expected to see you here. Please help us!"
Upon hearing Du Guizhi's words, Chen Jiayi glanced at Lin Chen'an beside her, and then looked at Lin's father.
To be honest, Chen Jiayi didn't have a good impression of anyone in the Lin family.
That was true then, and it is true now.
Lin's father was always scheming to get her married into the Lin family. But he wished he could give all of the Chen family's assets to the Lin family for free.
Lin Chen'an appears to be a devoted man on the surface, but in reality, he's a complete scumbag.
There's also Du Guizhi, and people say like father, like son. Chen Jiayi thinks Lin Yuyao's personality is very similar to Du Guizhi's.
Du Guizhi disliked her daughter-in-law Li Mo, so she tacitly allowed her daughter to drug Li Mo and plot to ruin her reputation.
The Lin family seems to think they'd die if they didn't scheme against others.
Chen Jiayi smiled and said, "Didn't you love this adopted daughter the most? Oh, how come you're locked up here?"
In fact, a big reason why Du Guizhi liked Lin Yuyao was because Lin Yuyao had the same personality as her.
Upon hearing Chen Jiayi's words, Du Guizhi's expression changed, and she immediately put on a fawning smile.
"Miss Chen, you have no idea what that wretched girl Lin Yuyao has done!"
Du Guizhi raised her hand and said to Chen Jiayi.
"Miss Chen, could you please help me untie this rope?"
Originally, Chen Jiayi didn't want to, but when she thought about how Lin Yuyao had treated her, Lin's father, Lin Chen'an, looked like he was about to erupt like a volcano.
Her eyes flickered, and she readily helped Du Guizhi remove the rope.
After Du Guizhi untied the ropes on her hands, she immediately untied the ropes on her feet, then ran to Lin's father, pulled the cloth out of his mouth, and untied the ropes from his body.
When Lin's father woke up, he was found tied up and left there without any face.
This scene was even witnessed by an outsider.
He was furious and yelled at Du Guizhi, "Du Guizhi, look what your good daughter has done!"
Du Guizhi was yelled at, but she didn't say a word.
After Lin's father finished tying the rope, he kicked Du Guizhi.
Du Guizhi didn't dare say a word, but she did the same thing to Lin Chen'an.
After he was able to speak, Lin Chen'an looked at Du Guizhi with some resentment.
"Mom, I told you that something would definitely happen if she stayed at home, but you didn't believe me and insisted on leaving her there. Now look what happened!"
When Du Guizhi saw that even her son was criticizing her and didn't understand her at all, tears streamed down her face.
"I'm doing all this for you! Besides, weren't you the ones who agreed to stay in the first place? Lin Yuyao is indeed pretty; with a little training, she could become a rich young lady."
"but……"
Du Guizhi hesitated and stammered.
She glanced at Chen Jiayi. Some things are not suitable to say in front of outsiders, but the Lin family all understand.
Lin's father snorted coldly and stormed out.
I wonder what's going on outside. If that wretched girl manages to tie up President Li like this, she'll really offend everyone in this industry!
After Lin's father left, Lin Chen'an also left.
Before leaving, he glanced down at Chen Jiayi.
"Thanks."
Chen Jiayi scoffed, her tone laced with sarcasm.
"Don't tell me you can't even handle a little girl."
Chen Jiayi disliked Lin Chen'an and naturally had no intention of helping him.
But if it's a dog-eat-dog situation, she'll definitely want to get involved.
After they all left, Du Guizhi stood there, looking dazed.
Du Guizhi had no idea what the Lin family was secretly instructing Lin Yuyao to do. Only now did she realize that Lin Yuyao had been successfully trained by Lin's father.
Seeing that Du Guizhi looked dazed, Chen Jiayi crossed her arms.
"Hey, didn't you say you'd see me off and show me the way after they left?"
Upon hearing Chen Jiayi's words, Du Guizhi, who had been in a daze, immediately came to her senses.
She looked at Chen Jiayi in front of her, a calculating glint flashing in her eyes.
"Miss Chen, shall we leave together?"
Chen Jiayi sat down in the chair with her arms crossed.
She smiled and tilted her head as she spoke.
"Sorry, I'm not leaving."
Du Guizhi choked up, but she wanted to know as soon as possible how Lin's father and Lin Chen'an would treat Lin Yuyao.
Du Guizhi glanced at Chen Jiayi, and seeing that she wasn't going with them, she gave up on the idea.
After they all left, Chen Jiayi's eyes were filled with a melancholy.
The Lin family is really interesting.
The parents want to sell their daughter for a marriage alliance, and the daughter's freedom is restricted by her parents.
Shen Jialiang did not find Chen Jiayi, but he found a place where he could leave the room.
He climbed out from there and then removed the ventilation panel.
At this time, the ventilation panels in large houses were medium to large, and the windows were pushed outwards.
After Shen Jialiang came out, his eyes lingered for a moment.
Chen Jiayi stayed on the other side, and Shen Jialiang stayed on the other side.
The two leaned against the wall back to back and sighed at the same time.
Chen Jiayi thought to herself, "I knew coming to the Lin family wouldn't bring anything good."
Everyone knows what kind of relationship Lin Yuyao has with her, so Chen Jiayi was speechless when she was suddenly asked to attend her engagement party.
She rejected the proposal time and time again, but people kept offering her advice.
It wasn't until Chen Jiayi accepted the petition that Lin Yuyao stopped sending people to harass her.
I came here tonight, naturally to see what Lin Yuyao is up to!
Footsteps sounded outside the door, and Chen Jiayi hid warily.
The person outside spoke up, sounding somewhat impatient.
Is anyone there?
Is anyone there?
"Let's go, there shouldn't be anyone in this room."
"Don't you want to check again? Let me take a look over there."
"What's there to check? It's such a hassle. I'm already exhausted every day, and now I have to find the person this young lady ran away with."
"Shut up, is it your place to complain?"
The other person pursed their lips, feeling increasingly uncomfortable.
Why is it that even though they both come from the countryside, Lin Yuyao is a young lady from a wealthy family, and he's just someone the young lady bosses around?
Chen Jiayi covered her mouth, afraid that she might scream out of fear.
She reached out and covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes flowing like water and clouds.
The man's footsteps grew closer...
