Chapter 373 Bribery
Ye Rou fell asleep while waiting for Jiang Chen.
When she heard the noise and opened her eyes drowsily, Jiang Chen happened to come back.
He is changing his clothes.
The slender fingertips grabbed the hem of the clothes and pulled it up, covering the upper body.
The overhead light from the bedroom shone on him, casting a halo on his wheat-colored muscles, and all the muscle lines that could be named were clearly visible.
Ye Rou was bewitched by the male beauty and couldn't help but turn over, folding her hands up and down, holding her chin and watching intently.
She was so excited to watch that her slender legs crossed and swayed in the air, looking translucent and shiny.
Jiang Chen chuckled.
His slender hands moved down to his waist, and his belt was untied with a crisp sound.
Ye Rou was excited watching this, and felt that he was moving too slowly, so she forced herself not to urge him out loud.
Jiang Chen curled his lips, suddenly turned around, and picked up the person who was peeping.
"Are you spying on me?"
Ye Rouli said confidently, "I've seen it, what do you want to do?"
A smile flashed in his eyes, and Jiang Chen took the person to lie down on the bed, wrapped in the quilt, and his low and hoarse voice was a little muffled.
"I want to see it back."
…
Before going downstairs, Ye Rou had to wrap a scarf around her neck to cover the marks.
She originally thought that Ji Yan would hide from her for a while, but she didn't expect her to come back so soon and sit on the sofa in the living room with a cold face.
There was a strange man sitting opposite me, carefully sitting on the edge of the sofa, with cold sweat on his forehead.
Ye Rou went downstairs curiously and sat down on the sofa between Ji Yan and the strange man under their gaze.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, she smiled and said, "You guys continue, don't worry about me."
The strange man was stunned by Ye Rou's beauty and immediately smiled and flattered her, "This must be Miss An Ning! She is really beautiful."
Ji Yan's face suddenly darkened.
Ye Rou was also very unhappy.
She said dissatisfiedly: "What are you looking at? I am much prettier than Liang Anning, okay?"
The man stepped on two landmines with one sentence and dared not speak anymore.
Ji Yan said coldly: "Ye Rou, we still have things to discuss."
Ye Rou blinked and said innocently, "I didn't stop you from talking."
"..." Ji Yan took a deep breath, did not argue with her, stood up and said to the man: "Let's go to the study on the second floor."
The two of them went upstairs one after the other. Ye Rou suppressed her smile and listened attentively to the movements upstairs.
The door closed, and Ji Yan said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
The man's voice sounded particularly annoyed.
"I shouldn't have betrayed Commander Liang and sided with the Qu family. I was also fooled by the Qu family. Now I really know that I was wrong. Can you talk to Commander Liang and ask him not to transfer me to Qiongzhou? I am old and weak, and I will suffer there."
Ji Yan snorted coldly, "Who do you think I am, Lao Liang? I'm just a receptionist at a guesthouse. I come and go as you please."
She pulled a chair and sat down. "I can't help you with this. Besides, the climate in Qiongzhou is warm, which is just right for you to recuperate. Once you're well, you might be transferred back someday."
"Please don't make fun of me. Once I go to Qiongzhou, there's no way I can come back." The man's voice became more pleading.
"If you don't help me with this, I'll really be dead."
Ji Yan said coldly: "Oh, you are anxious after seeing the fate of the Chi family."
The man sighed, "Yeah, the Chi family fell when they said they would."
Ji Yan did not make any comment on this sentence.
The man lowered his voice and said, "I heard you like jewelry. I asked someone to bring this back from the south. Please take a look and see if it suits your taste."
A long silence followed.
After a long time, Ye Rou finally heard Ji Yan's words, "Go home and wait for the letter."
The man happily agreed and left happily.
Gold jewelry shines brightly.
Ji Yan stayed to admire it alone for a while before coming out with a subtle smile.
As soon as he walked out of the study, he met Ye Rou's gaze downstairs.
She rested her chin on the back of the sofa, her fox eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, looking at her with a half-smile.
Ji Yan felt uncomfortable all over because of her laughter.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to teach her a lesson, Ji Yue's voice rang in his head again.
"Sister, the most important thing you should do now is to go back and keep an eye on Ye Rou to see what she does. Once you understand her movements, you can take countermeasures in advance. As the old saying goes, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle."
After so many years, no one knows where that night soil collector has gone.
Unless Ye Rou is a deity with extraordinary abilities, she will never be able to find it.
As for the love letter in Meng Chunping's hands, the Chi family had a bad relationship with Ye Rou because of the previous banquet, and would definitely not give the love letter to Ye Rou, so she didn't need to worry about it.
But Ji Yan also knew that Ye Rou was a very evil girl and he really had to be careful.
So she listened to her sister and went back home, keeping an eye on Ye Rou.
She pretended to be calm and coughed, then walked back to the sofa and sat down, controlling her expression and allowing Ye Rou to observe her.
Ye Rou came up with an answer based on the conversation between the two just now.
The man bribed Ji Yan to help him stay in Beijing.
But does Ji Yan have such great power that he can influence the transfer of a person's official position?
Or is it that Liang Yushan is also involved, and the couple, one openly and the other secretly, are working together to make money?
She couldn't figure it out, and looked at Ji Yan with her fox eyes.
It seems as if it wants to penetrate this layer of human skin and see the ghostly thoughts hidden underneath.
Ji Yan felt uncomfortable being stared at, and finally couldn't help asking, "Ye Rou, how did you know about what happened back then?"
Ye Rou tilted her head slightly.
Taking in Ji Yan's uneasiness and guilty conscience, she curled her lips and smiled, "Does it matter how I know?"
Indeed, it doesn’t matter how Ye Rou knew it. The key is that she already knew it.
Ji Yan is now certain that this little bitch agreed to come back just to avenge Zheng Lili.
It seems that my sister is right. Ye Rou has no evidence yet, and once she has it, she will definitely take action against her.
Ye Rou didn't have the ability to read minds, but she had some guesses about Ji Yan's thoughts.
He must have felt guilty after hearing what she said the night before, so he wanted to come back and keep an eye on her to prevent her from investigating what happened that year.
This reaction just confirmed Ye Rou's guess.
There must be something crucial, and Ji Yan is afraid that the evidence she will discover exists.
Ye Rou narrowed her fox eyes slightly and actively thought about it.
In what happened back then, Zheng Lili was the victim, Tian Zihui was the mastermind behind the scenes, Ji Yan was the instigator, and who else was there?
Ye Rou's eyes lit up.
Oh, right, the night soil collector.
He knew Ji Yan's plan and was an accomplice in helping the evil.
But it has been twenty years since that incident. In such a vast sea of people, where can we find that night soil collector?
Ye Rou's mind raced, and it seemed that she had overlooked something just now.
What is it?
Chi family!
Yes, the man just said that the Chi family has fallen.
Meng Chunping from the Chi family has a love letter in her hand, which is the evidence of Zheng Lili's "adultery" with the night soil collector.
Chi Coco.
A figure appeared in Ye Rou's mind, wearing a white dress and extremely thin and pale.
Ding Ding Ding
The melon-eating alarm sounded.
