Xiao Yu gritted his teeth: "You two are working together, aren't you?"
Shen Ci subconsciously retorted: "Who's with him..."
Chi Yan calmly interrupted him: "Isn't it obvious? If my brother-in-law isn't on my side, why would he be on yours?"
Shen Ci: "..."
He gave Chi Yan a furtive glare. Had he agreed?
Seeing that Xiao Yu was about to fly into a rage, Chi Yan slowly threw out bait: "If I really had Tang Xu bribe Sun Siyan, why would I bring you to watch this show? And don't forget, the Sun family is not short of money."
Xiao Yu fell into deep thought after hearing this, his eyes shifting unpredictably: "Then why did Sun Er betray me?"
Chi Yan's eyes were deep and unfathomable: "I also want to ask, why did Tang Xu betray me?"
"You mean..." A look of shock flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes, then turned to schadenfreude, "Maybe it's because you've done too many wicked things!"
He felt incredibly angry at being betrayed, but with others by his side, it didn't seem so unbearable.
Shen Ci spoke in a detached and sarcastic tone: "Judging from that, you've done your fair share of despicable things too."
Xiao Yu: "..."
I can't laugh.
Chi Yan gave his brother-in-law an approving look, then gently coaxed Xiao Yu: "Think carefully, every time you came to pick a fight with me before, wasn't there someone instigating it? For example, the time with Kunshan Jade, and the night Miss Pingting had her accident?"
Xiao Yu couldn't help but recall seriously, and a subtle change appeared in his eyes.
After Chi Yan's reminder, he did indeed notice something was amiss.
"That day, I heard from Sun Er that Wufuzhai had produced a rare and precious jade called Kunshan Jade. Most importantly, Miss Pingting was very fond of this jade! So I thought I'd go and see it for myself!"
Chi Yan narrowed his eyes: "I also heard from Tang Xu and Ji Wuyai that Kunshan jade is a rare find, only once every hundred years. They know I've always been interested in these rare things, so they'll definitely join in the fun."
Tang Xu was more cunning than Sun Siyan in that he never took the initiative to step forward, but instead instigated Ji Wuyai to stand in front of him while he remained behind the scenes.
Xiao Yu's eyes widened: "The night Miss Pingting had her accident, he also suggested going to see her, and said that you would definitely go too!"
Sure enough, he ran into Chi Yan by the lake and they almost got into a fight!
Chi Yan sneered upon hearing this: "I myself didn't know I would definitely go, so how did he know? Someone must have given him a heads-up beforehand!"
Xiao Yu's eyes widened, and he suddenly gritted his teeth: "These two bastards betrayed us and deliberately tried to sow discord between us?"
Although he and Chi Yan didn't get along well to begin with, it was one thing for him to dislike Chi Yan, but it was another thing for someone to deliberately mislead him!
Doesn't this prove that Xiao Yu is blind and easily led astray?
Chi Yan was indignant and kept adding fuel to the fire: "That's absolutely right! They're clearly treating you, Young Master Xiao, like a fool!"
Xiao Yu was furious: "This is outrageous!"
Having watched for so long, Shen Ci had also figured out some of the tricks of the trade.
So, it's possible that the brother next to Chi Yan has been plotting against him all along, and that his imprisonment is very likely related to that brother!
He looked at Chi Yan with suspicion, but when did this kid become so smart?
Look at Xiao Yu, that idiot, completely fooled by him. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush up and fight: "How dare you scheme against me! I'll beat these two bastards to a pulp!"
Chi Yan had anticipated this, and he grabbed him, immobilizing him.
Xiao Yu looked up angrily: "Why are you stopping me?"
Chi Yan scoffed, his voice mocking: "If you go and question them now, do you think they'll admit it without any evidence? Fighting in the street and getting invited for tea by the Jingzhao Prefecture? Be careful your father breaks your legs first!"
