Before Bai Xiuyan could object, Qi Jincheng said to him in a commanding tone, "Speak."
Yan Luoheng glanced at Bai Xiuyan, his eyes clearly warning him not to speak. But Qi Jincheng's attitude was clear, and besides, he wanted to enjoy the show today, so how could he not say anything?
"Have you never doubted your niece's background?" Yan Luoheng deliberately asked Bai Xiuyan.
He wanted to ask Bai Xiuyan this question so that Qi Jincheng would understand his wife's true identity better.
In an instant, Bai Xiuyan's face turned extremely ugly. Yan Luoheng, knowing full well what was going on, asked with a smile, "Or did you already know?"
Before he finished speaking, Qi Jincheng's deep gaze immediately turned to Bai Xiuyan. Although he knew they should be on the same side, he couldn't help but feel a little out of control at this moment.
Yan Luoheng continued with ill intent, "President Qi probably doesn't know yet."
"Your wife is not a member of the Qiao family, nor is she Qiao Guangyuan's daughter, but rather..."
"Shut up!" Bai Xiuyan gritted his teeth, his fierce expression as if he were slowly tearing Yan Luoheng apart.
Yan Luoheng didn't give up and probed him further, saying, "Can't you say it in front of President Qi?"
"You mean it's related to the Heavenly Slaughter Sect?" Qi Jincheng asked quickly.
Yan Luoheng suddenly raised his hand to applaud Qi Jincheng, "President Qi is truly a smart man."
"Master Bai, should I tell you or not?" Yan Luoheng finally asked Bai Xiuyan for his opinion.
However, he knew very well that no matter what Bai Xiuyan's answer was, Qi Jincheng would force him to say it.
Before Bai Xiuyan could reply, Qi Jincheng couldn't help but say, "The person who saved Xi'er in the cold storage is from the Heavenly Slaughter Sect."
"Is that so?" Yan Luoheng pretended to be just finding out, muttering to himself, "I knew it. Now that he's back, he definitely won't just sit idly by."
"What is Xi'er's connection with the Heavenly Slaughter Sect?" Qi Jincheng asked Yan Luoheng and Bai Xiuyan with a solemn expression.
Yan Luoheng once again sought Bai Xiuyan's opinion, "Master Bai, should I tell him or not?"
"Speak." Qi Jincheng didn't want to wait even a second longer!
Yan Luoheng chuckled softly, deliberately whetting Qi Jincheng's appetite, "President Qi seems very curious."
"No one's leaving this room today until we explain ourselves clearly." Qi Jincheng threatened them without reservation, this time including Bai Xiuyan.
Yan Luoheng sighed heavily and said, "It seems that I have no choice but to tell you."
"Mr. Bai, what do you think?"
Bai Xiuyan's clenched fingernails were so tight they were embedded in his flesh. If you looked closely, his palms were covered in blood, but he seemed oblivious to the pain, staring fiercely at Yan Luoheng.
Yan Luoheng noticed it out of the corner of his eye, and he seized the opportunity to create this 'internal strife'.
“Mr. Qi, you may not know this, but your wife’s true identity is actually…” He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence, and only continued after seeing the expectant look on Qi Jincheng’s face. “She is the daughter of the leader of the Heavenly Slaughter Sect.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Jincheng was stunned, his surprise and disbelief clearly showing on his face.
"Surprised, aren't you?" Yan Luoheng asked with a smile.
After recovering slightly, Qi Jincheng couldn't help but say, "How is that possible?"
Yan Luoheng tilted his head back, took a deep breath, and slowly told him, "Miss Bai, who is also your mother-in-law, married into the Qiao family while she was pregnant."
"I wonder if Qiao Guangyuan knew about this and deliberately caused that car accident to kill her."
"What are you saying?!" Qi Jincheng's wide eyes were filled with turbulent emotions.
Yan Luoheng did not answer him directly, but looked at Bai Xiuyan again, "Master Bai, am I right?"
Bai Xiuyan had reached his limit and shouted, "Afei!"
Upon hearing the noise, Afei led his men and rushed in, along with Yan Luoheng and Qi Jincheng's men.
For a moment, the room was a three-legged standoff.
Yan Luoheng knew what Bai Xiuyan wanted to do, and he knew he was absolutely capable of doing it, but before that, he still gave him a friendly reminder, "Master Bai, you have no chance of winning if you try to make a move here."
At least until things are clear, Qi Jincheng will not act rashly.
Qi Jincheng did indeed step in between them, while warning them, "Make things clear first."
"Mr. Qi, wasn't I clear enough?" Yan Luoheng shrugged helplessly at him.
Qi Jincheng also realized that Bai Xiuyan had lost his mind. At this point, it was almost impossible to get him to reveal the truth. He could only signal to Afei, "Afei, take your master away first."
"Kill him!" Bai Xiuyan ordered A Fei without hesitation to kill Yan Luoheng.
Afei had always obeyed Bai Xiuyan's every word, because Bai Xiuyan had killed many people with just a word. But now he knew that something was wrong with his master. Every decision he had made before was not blind, but now he had some doubts.
Qi Jincheng had no choice but to use a commanding tone with A Fei, "Take him away!"
This time, Afei surprisingly complied with Qi Jincheng's wishes and left with Bai Xiuyan first.
Bai Xiuyan knew that his emotions were getting out of control. Although unwilling, he forced himself to leave, suppressing his urge to explode.
After they left, Qi Jincheng had his men leave first, and Yan Luoheng also waved to his subordinates, leaving only him and Qi Jincheng in the large room.
Qi Jincheng didn't waste any words with him and asked directly, "Tell me everything you know."
"I don't care where this place is, it can be your grave!"
How could Yan Luoheng not understand such an obvious warning? However, he had been warned countless times since they came in, even though this warning seemed more relevant.
Yan Luoheng sighed heavily and said helplessly, "President Qi can go and ask Master Bai directly."
"I will ask." Qi Jincheng's face was gloomy as he coldly ordered him, "Tell me what you know first."
"I've told you everything I know." Yan Luoheng didn't seem to be hiding anything from him, and even suggested, "As for whether it's accurate or not, you can only verify it with Bai Xiuyan."
Even without Yan Luoheng's reminder, Qi Jincheng would have asked Bai Xiuyan for clarification.
Bai Xiuyan did not leave; he sat in the car, seemingly waiting for Qi Jincheng.
Seeing Qi Jincheng come out, Afei opened the back door of the car and invited him in.
The car door closed, and Qi Jincheng, his previous friendly attitude towards him completely changed, said coldly, "Tell me about Xi'er's background. I have the right to know."
Bai Xiuyan remained silent, unmoved, as if Qi Jincheng hadn't said anything.
Qi Jincheng knew he had heard him, but he was just deliberately ignoring it.
