Without any hesitation, Lu Yang arrived at the door of 402. He opened the door and found Guan Xiuqin and Lu Qing sitting inside.
He roughly knew what methods those two would use to deal with him; clever people often overestimate their abilities.
Guan Xiuqin smiled at him and said, "Yangzi, please sit down. I came here to see Qingqing. She said you're also in the provincial capital. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so I came to meet up with you."
As she spoke, she led Lu Yang to the living room, where a lavish spread of food and wine was laid out on the table.
After Lu Yang sat down, he calmly asked, "Second Aunt, when are you getting married?"
Guan Xiuqin paused while pouring the wine, almost spilling it onto the table.
She gave a dry laugh: "What marriage? I just want to spend the rest of my life with your second uncle."
Lu Yang smiled and said, "You can't be heartless. Director Liang went to great lengths to get my dad out of jail this time. You should repay him with your body."
Guan Xiuqin gritted her teeth, almost losing control of her temper.
This kid knows everything, and he's ruthless enough to send his own father there.
Guan Xiuqin handed the wine to Lu Yang, and then poured a glass for herself and Lu Qing.
"Let's have a drink."
Guan Xiuqin raised her glass and said.
Lu Yang picked up a steamed bun, took a bite, nodded, and said, "White flour steamed buns are still the best."
Guan Xiuqin grinned, wanting to say something more, but Lu Yang was only focused on eating steamed buns, and ate three in a row.
Lu Qing could no longer contain herself: "You hungry ghost, you dragged me here!"
Lu Yang looked at her with a half-smile: "You're really funny. You're the one who treated me to dinner, and you're complaining that I ate too much."
Lu Qing took a deep breath: "I'm not complaining that you eat too much, but don't let this get awkward, hurry up and drink!"
"You didn't drug my drink, did you?!"
Lu Yang said half-jokingly.
Lu Qing shook her head and downed the wine in front of her in one gulp: "It's not poisoned."
Lu Yang nodded, and after finishing the fourth steamed bun, he raised his glass and drank the wine in one gulp.
Soon after, he covered his head and started to feel drowsy, then fell asleep on the table.
Guan Xiuqin called out softly, "Yangzi, Lu Yang?"
Seeing that Lu Yang didn't react, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily, I put the medicine on the rim of the cup, otherwise I really would have been able to fool her!"
"Call this person over quickly, is he reliable?"
Lu Qing scoffed and said disdainfully, "Xiao Cui has been a mistress for three years. Don't worry, this isn't the first time she's made a mistake."
Guan Xiuqin sneered: "It's just in time for the crackdown. This little bastard will definitely be shot for committing hooliganism. That's so satisfying!"
Five minutes later, there was a knock on the living room door, and Lu Qing went to open it with a smile in her eyes.
Guan Xiuqin's attention was also on the door, but she didn't notice that Lu Yang had already gotten up, his eyes clear and showing no signs of sleepiness.
He knocked Guan Xiuqin unconscious with a bang. Just as he reached the door, Xiao Cui closed it and came in.
Without uttering a sound, Lu Yang knocked Xiao Cui and Lu Qing unconscious.
After knocking on their doors, Lu Yang immediately called the police and recounted what had happened.
He took out his Sony Walkman from his bag and played the tape in reverse, which contained all the conversations between the three of them.
Before the police arrived, Lu Yang copied a cassette tape using the tape recorder in Lu Qing's house and put it in his pocket.
The police arrived quickly, and Lu Yang cooperated with them to give a statement before Lu Qing, Guan Xiuqin, and Xiao Cui woke up.
When the three realized what was going on, Guan Xiuqin was the first to explode: "You deliberately tricked us!"
Lu Yang shrugged: "Shouldn't I be the one saying that to you, Second Aunt? What did I do to offend you? Do you want me shot?"
Guan Xiuqin immediately fell silent, because she really had nothing to say.
Lu Qing looked flustered and whispered to the police, "We were just joking with my cousin, it really was just a joke."
At this moment, Cheng Lin came to bail Lu Yang out. Lu Yang stood up and said, "Cousin, joking about getting someone shot is a joke that no living person can take."
"Why don't you go to the cemetery tonight and open it? Maybe a ghost will cooperate with you!"
Lu Qing's face flushed with anger, and she was about to retort when Lu Yang said to the police, "I do not accept mediation!"
After saying that, he strode away. Guan Xiuqin and Lu Qing were both terrified and turned pale. Xiao Cui was even called out for questioning alone.
After all, Lu Qing herself said that this wasn't the first time she had done something like this.
The police officer, with a stern face, said, "This is a case of false accusation and framing. Which of you came up with this idea?"
Lu Qing immediately looked at Guan Xiuqin, and Guan Xiuqin also looked at her. Neither of them said a word.
If Lu Qing were replaced by Lu Yao, Guan Xiuqin would definitely take the blame for Lu Yao without hesitation.
But she wouldn't take the blame for Lu Qing, even though Lu Qing did it to help her.
Under the watchful eyes of the police, both men broke out in a cold sweat, but neither gave in.
"Trial separately!"
With a wave of his hand, the police ordered the officers to take them away.
Guan Xiuqin was somewhat devastated; she didn't know how things had developed to this point.
Lu Qing was more composed. She shouted, "If we are convicted, will we be sentenced?"
The police officer stared at her and said, "Your case is relatively minor; the principal offender gets one year, and the accomplice gets six months. But if Xiao Cui really slandered someone and caused their death, your failure to report it will also be considered a more serious offense!"
Lu Qing panicked. Now was not the time to worry about saving face. She immediately shouted, "I need to make a phone call."
"I'll tell you if you let me make a phone call!"
She naturally had to call Shen Xuwen, since only Shen Xuwen had the ability to get her out of trouble.
Guan Xiuqin suddenly realized, and she was just about to say that she also wanted to make a phone call.
