Chapter 624: You Make the Decision
Baili Hengyuan saw that he was unable to persuade Zhong Nianyao, so he had no choice but to bring Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen to the reception room.
As soon as he saw Zhong Nianyao coming, Yi Lin stood up and looked at her with a strong hatred in his eyes. He looked like he wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.
"Yi Lin."
Baili Hengyuan looked at Yi Lin, then glanced at the corpse on the ground, his expression becoming somewhat ugly, "What are you planning to do?"
In broad daylight, he brought Yi Huai's body to their door. Was he looking for trouble with them, or was he trying to provoke them?
"Can't you see that?" Yi Lin was not to be outdone and directly confronted Baili Hengyuan, "My son died tragically. As a father, shouldn't I seek justice for him?"
"Seeking justice?" Baili Hengyuan sneered. "What you mean by seeking justice is bringing Yi Huai's body to our Baili family to disgust us, right? Or, what do you think our Baili family should bear responsibility for this matter?"
"Do you dare to say that this matter has nothing to do with you or anyone else?"
Yi Lin's eyes were red, and he looked at Zhong Nianyao fiercely, "He was fine at first, but he died suddenly. Apart from you, who else would want to kill him?"
"I have already promised you that I will expel him from the Yi family. Why do you still want to kill him?"
After Yi Huai died, he was still very sad. Although he had promised the Baili family that he would drive Yi Huai's family away, he still had this son in his heart. Otherwise, he would not have arranged everything for Yi Huai and planned to send him to live in the outside world.
However, what he never expected was that Yi Huai died suddenly in the room before he even left.
Apart from the Baili family, he really couldn't think of anyone else who wanted Yi Huai's life.
"Oh, it seems that Patriarch Yi has determined that we were the ones who killed Yi Huai." Zhong Nianyao nodded seriously, "In that case, Patriarch Yi, please produce the evidence. If there is no evidence, then Patriarch Yi, you must also give us an explanation for coming to our house with the corpse today."
"You—" Yi Lin was furious. "You don't want to admit it, right? Besides you, who else wants Yi Huai's life?"
If he had evidence, he would not have brought Yi Huai's body to the door now, but would have gone directly to the special department to file a complaint.
"So, this is just a guess, right?" Zhong Nianyao blinked, then smiled and said, "From now on, whenever something happens to our Baili family, even if someone just catches a cold, I will think that your Yi family poisoned us. Because our Baili family has the deepest hatred for your Yi family."
"You're just making up stories." Yi Lin couldn't maintain his composure anymore. "If it wasn't you, who else would have killed Yi Huai?"
"How can you be sure that Yi Huai was murdered?" Zhong Nianyao asked directly, "Did he tell you that? Can't he have died suddenly from a sudden illness?"
"Impossible." Yi Lin replied subconsciously, "Yi Huai is in good health, there's no way anything could happen to him."
"Haha, he did something so offensive to nature, how do you know this isn't retribution?"
Zhong Nianyao looked at Yi Lin steadily, "Master Yi, you came here now, are you really seeking justice for Yi Huai, or do you have other motives? For example, you want to use Yi Huai's death to make a deal with us."
As soon as these words came out, a hint of understanding flashed in Baili Hengyuan's eyes. Then his gaze immediately fell on Yi Lin, and his expression became much more serious. "Yi Lin, what exactly do you want to do?"
"Don't spit bloody words at me here," Yi Lin's eyes flashed with a strange look, but he immediately fought back, "You're all evasive here, what exactly do you want to do? You're trying to shirk responsibility, aren't you?"
"What a joke." Zhong Nianyao stepped forward and sneered, "What are you trying to shirk responsibility for? Yi Huai's death has nothing to do with us."
"You're the one saying everything now. Why should everything you say be true? I even said that you killed Yi Huai on purpose and wanted to frame our Baili family!"
"That's right," Baili Hengyuan nodded in agreement. "Yi Lin, if you have evidence, then present it now. If you don't have evidence, then don't talk nonsense here."
"You...you..." Yi Lin was so angry that he could hardly speak.
"Master Yi, just tell me what you want to do." Zhong Nianyao's sharp eyes fell on Yi Lin, "Don't beat around the bush with me here. I don't want to play guessing games with you here."
Baili Hengyuan naturally saw through Yi Lin's thoughts, and he also spoke, "Yi Lin, now I'm giving you a chance, tell me the truth. Otherwise, we will have to send you away."
Yi Lin looked around, filled with hatred. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yi Huai is dead now. The debt is settled. The grudge between him and your Baili family is also over."
"So, I will not kick Yi Huai's children out of the Yi family anymore."
Now that Yi Huai is dead, he must find a way to save his grandchildren.
Although there was no evidence, he was certain that Yi Huai's death was related to the Baili family, or more precisely, to Zhong Nian Yao.
He really wanted to seek justice for Yi Huai, but he had no substantial evidence, so he could do nothing.
Therefore, he had to use this matter to negotiate with the Baili family and could not allow his grandchildren to be forced to leave the Yi family.
"Impossible." Baili Hengyuan refused directly. "Yi Lin, don't forget what you promised. If you go back on your word now, our Baili family and your Yi family will remain sworn enemies."
"Bai Li Hengyuan, you're really going too far." Yi Lin pointed at Bai Li Hengyuan and accused him directly, "Those children have already lost their father, and you still want them to leave their home. You are truly too cruel."
"Why does Patriarch Yi have to push everything onto us?" Zhong Nianyao stepped forward, smiled faintly, and said, "It was you who made the decision before, not us. It was you who decided to kick them out of the Yi family!"
