When Commander Xu came, he didn't bring Xu Qianting with him. He heard the commotion at the Lin residence from home and came over to see what was going on.
Seeing this commotion infuriated Xu Qianting, who had long wanted to curse, but had been struggling to find an opportunity.
The expressions on the faces of the people around Zhou Chenyang were indescribable.
Anyone who isn't an idiot can figure out that this matter is inextricably linked to him.
As the lord of a city, his unethical behavior is not only despicable but also makes people worry about whether his family will be targeted by him.
Zhou Chenyang gritted his teeth and said, "This has nothing to do with me. I just came here with Jiang Xinrou to take a look."
Even his own words sounded somewhat weak and powerless.
Seeing the commotion, Ye Junfei said to Wudao, "It's your turn to go on stage."
Wu Dao scratched his head: "What would I be doing over there?"
Ye Junfei didn't speak, only giving him a cold and indifferent look.
He felt a chill run down his spine and immediately said, "I understand!"
Actually, he knew nothing...
Because he was unaware of what was happening, and feeling somewhat flustered, he decided to play himself.
So after Ye Junfei kicked him off the roof, he immediately put his arm around Zhou Chenyang's shoulder and said, "We're men, if we dare to do something, we should dare to take responsibility!"
"I was wondering why you sent your men to find the Gu talisman; turns out it was for this." (M.cascoo.net)
"As the city lord, everything in this city belongs to you."
“The Lin family is disobedient. Just kill their whole family. It’s pathetic to learn these underhanded tricks from the women in the inner quarters.”
Zhou Chenyang: "..."
Zhou Chenyang: "!!!!!!!"
He did indeed have someone get the Gu talisman, but Wu Dao never saw it. In the end, this was just Wu Dao talking nonsense!
However, such nonsense could ruin his reputation as the city lord in Chongqing!
He retorted angrily, "Your Highness, you cannot speak such things without concrete evidence!"
Wu Dao chuckled and said, "You can't say anything without concrete evidence? Then why did you say so much just now?"
Zhou Chenyang: "..."
He's furious that Wu Dao is so infuriating!
Wu Dao added, "If you want me to provide evidence for the Gu talisman, it's not difficult, because I myself am the evidence."
He then waved to the people around him and said, "You all don't recognize me yet, do you?"
"Let me introduce myself. I am the Crown Prince of Pingnan!"
Everyone: "..."
Lin Xiuyan couldn't bear to look at Wu Dao in this state.
She knew from her past life that Ye Junfei's number one lackey was an idiot, but she never knew he could be this idiotic.
She subconsciously looked in Ye Junfei's direction. His lips were slightly curved, and his peach blossom eyes were full of amusement.
With Wu Dao, the "heir apparent" of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion, as a witness, the gazes of the crowd towards Zhou Chenyang held a mixture of worry and fear.
Zhou Chenyang was so angry he felt like vomiting blood. He looked coldly at Wudao, who wasn't afraid of him at all and laughed, "Am I not telling the truth?"
Zhou Chenyang knew that if he stayed here any longer, he, as the city lord, would lose all face in front of the entire city's people...
Although he has now had his last fig leaf torn away by Wu Dao.
He turned to leave, but heard Wu Dao say, "The Pingnan Prince's Mansion takes it upon itself to protect all the people of Liefeng Prefecture."
"As long as the Pingnan Prince's Mansion exists, it will never allow anyone to plunder the property of the people of Liefeng Prefecture."
"If you ever encounter any injustices in the future, you can come to the Prince of Pingnan's residence to find me."
The people hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"
"The prince is wise!"
Wu Dao also felt quite clever. He looked at Ye Junfei with a smug look on his face, almost wagging his tail.
Ye Junfei couldn't bear to look at how stupid he was!
Zhou Chenyang was so angry at Wu Dao's words that he almost collapsed to the ground. The image he had painstakingly built in Yucheng was almost completely ruined today!
He left quickly.
As soon as he left, Jiang Xinrou no longer dared to pretend to be unconscious. She quickly got up from the ground and followed Zhou Chenyang away.
How could Lin Xiuyan let her go so easily? She stopped her and said, "Madam City Lord, you still have to give the Lin family an explanation for what happened tonight."
Jiang Xinrou's usual facade had been torn off, so how could she possibly give the Lin family an explanation?
She gritted her teeth and said, "I was forced to do this!"
After she finished speaking, she pointed at Lin Yunzhi and Qu Shuangyue and said, "They say they love me and treat me like their own daughter."
"But normally, whenever there's something good, he only gives it to Lin Xiuyan!"
She originally thought that if she said that, the people around her would agree with her and curse a few times, but she didn't expect that tonight everyone's eyes would be full of disgust when they looked at her.
Jiang Xinrou had no choice but to say again, "Leaving aside everything else, let's talk about today's dowry."
"They promised to bring all of Lin Xiuyan's dowry to the city lord's mansion for me, but they switched it out. It's full of stones and cotton!"
Lin Xiuyan sneered: "My mother took pity on you and brought you back to the Lin family to raise you. Everyone in the city knows how she has treated you all these years."
“But last night you murdered my parents, showing no regard for their kindness in raising you. You even plotted to seize my family property, intending to force me out of the Lin family mansion and take over their place.”
"Someone like you wants my dowry and a grand wedding from the Lin family? You're dreaming!"
Jiang Xinrou: "..."
She wiped away her tears, trying to feign pitifulness and gain sympathy, but no one around her spoke up for her; instead, the crowd continued to berate her.
"I misjudged her before; I never imagined she could be so vicious!"
"The Lin family has raised a thankless wretch!"
"They're clearly adopted, yet they want to be treated like biological children and even want other people's property. It's disgusting!"
Lin Yunzhi stepped forward and said, "The Lin family has already done more than enough for Jiang Xinrou!"
"I ask all of you to be my witnesses today. Today I am expelling Jiang Xinrou from the Lin family. From now on, everything Jiang Xinrou does will have nothing to do with the Lin family."
He looked coldly at Jiang Xinrou and said, "You can leave now. I never want to see you again."
Jiang Xinrou finally realized the danger. She was being driven out of the Lin family mansion and wouldn't be able to get anything from it.
Given Zhou Chenyang's way of doing things, it's impossible for him to be kind to her.
She immediately burst into tears: "Uncle, I was wrong, I will never do it again!"
Lin Xiuyan said from the side, "When you came to my parents last night to deliver the Gu talisman, you also said that you knew you were wrong and shouldn't have stolen my fiancé, and that you would never dare to do it again."
"But what were you planning? And what were you doing?"
Jiang Xinrou: "..."
Lin Xiuyan sneered and said, "So you think you're so charming that everyone will forgive you just because you admit your mistake?"
"Or do you think everyone in the world is an idiot, and only you are the smartest, capable of fooling everyone else?"
