Song Jingcheng recollected the past carefully, unraveling the distant memories and analyzing them: "Cheng Yang is eight years older than you. He had already entered the officialdom at that time and worked as a secretary to the mayor in the Qing City Government Building."
"You were not valued in the Mu family before, but Cheng Yang is the most respected one in the Cheng family. Logically speaking, you two should not have any intersection."
"Even if you two had compatible personalities and became friends, why did you later act like you weren't close friends?"
Mu Tingyun interrupted Song Jingcheng: "Uncle, what do you want to say?"
Song Jingcheng suddenly opened his eyes.
The sharp eyes were like substance, able to see through Mu Tingyun completely.
"Mu Tingyun, you've been actively cooperating with the reformation in prison. Are you trying to get your sentence reduced so you can be released sooner, or..."
Song Jingcheng leaned closer to the iron window, his eyes locked with Mu Tingyun's, and asked in an unfathomable tone, "Are you waiting for Cheng Yang to join forces with the Ou family, and then find a way to secretly rescue you?"
Mu Tingyun's expression suddenly changed.
His trembling pupils betrayed his true thoughts.
"...Uncle, you're really imaginative." Mu Tingyun tried to remain calm. He said, "What era do you think this is?"
"The walls of this prison are so high that they reach the sky. Can I just get out whenever I want?"
Song Jingcheng chuckled, "Mu Tingyun, my uncle is not stupid. These words of yours may fool others, but they can't fool me."
Once people have enough power, they will develop ambition and courage.
If Cheng Yang joins forces with the Ou family, he will always be able to find a way to quietly transfer Mu Tingyun away.
Substituting one thing for another, finding someone to take the blame...
Cheng Yang always finds a way.
"My dear nephew, tell me what kind of deal did you and Cheng Yang make?"
Song Jingcheng had long wanted to visit Mu Tingyun in prison and ask about all these details, but Chu Zhi's death delayed him, and he only had time to see him today.
Ever since he learned about the affair between Tulanhua and Cheng Yang, Song Jingcheng has been trying to figure out Cheng Yang every night.
He couldn't understand why Cheng Yang took such a big risk to attack him.
Until one day Ma Kai mentioned it unintentionally, saying that when he met Cheng Yang at Mu Tingyun's birthday party that year, he never thought that guy had such great ability.
Ma Kai's words reminded Song Jingcheng.
He overlooked one thing—
Cheng Yang and Mu Tingyun knew each other.
But why did they pretend not to know each other afterwards?
After thinking about it, Song Jingcheng felt that the two of them were avoiding suspicion and deliberately pretending not to know each other to prevent him from discovering their secret.
Mu Tingyun was shocked.
He didn't expect that even though he was imprisoned, Song Jingcheng could still trace him back based on those distant memories.
"There is no deal between Cheng Yang and me."
"Oh?" Song Jingcheng suddenly smiled elegantly.
"Nephew." Song Jingcheng tilted his head and looked at Mu Tingyun with a gentle expression. He couldn't help but ask, "What gave you the illusion that I was someone who could be easily fooled?"
"Cheng Yang married Ou Yalan because he valued the power of the Jun family in Kyoto. But did you know that Chen He's grandmother saved the old man of the Jun family, and Chen He and Jun Lin are close friends?"
"What Cheng Yang tried so hard to get, I can get without any effort."
"You're just a serious criminal. Do you really think I can't do anything to you?"
Mu Tingyun's eyes flashed, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Because he knew that what Song Jingcheng said was not an exaggeration.
Song Jingcheng is the leader among the young people in the Song family, and he is the most respected young man in the Song family.
Members of the Song family are spread across all walks of life.
Without even relying on the Jun family, Song Jingcheng has a way to reach the First Prison.
"Do you know that there is a neurological drug in the world that can easily poison an adult into dementia, and it is incurable?"
Nodding his head, Song Jingcheng smiled mysteriously, "Nephew, I have many ways to turn you into a walking corpse."
"Do you want to give it a try?"
Looking at the gentle smile on Song Jingcheng's lips, Mu Tingyun felt horrified.
“…”
He opened his mouth silently, and after a long moment of inner struggle and hesitation, Mu Tingyun finally closed his eyes resignedly.
"Eight years ago, when my grandfather was seriously ill, Cheng Yang found me and asked me to find an opportunity to steal a few strands of my grandfather's hair..."
