The other men no longer stared at Kaizer with those murderous gazes, and Kaizer didn\u2019t stare at the other three men anymore.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The handsome young man walked over and sat on the sofa\u2014of course, it was a single-seat sofa. Otherwise, given the relationships of those present, if he had chosen to sit next to anyone, a fight would have broken out the next second.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Hearing the handsome young man speak, the tall man still maintained that polite smile.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">However, when he looked at the handsome young man, the curve of his lips lifted slightly, seeming to show a little more sincerity than when he looked at the others.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This made the younger cousin sitting nearby shiver again and immediately confirm that her second cousin must have some abnormal \u201cattracts dangerous types\u201d constitution.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u2014Among the four present, Chris played with confinement, Will could invade her second cousin\u2019s room, Octo seemed relatively mild.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But this man silently participated in all of Ye Wangxing\u2019s enterprises.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">That was even more frightening than the first two. As for the last one, Kaizer\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The younger cousin\u2019s expression became complicated as she started typing on her phone.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201c\u2026What do you think your reaction would be if, after being murdered by your husband, you faked your death, came back to life, and saw him first?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Her friends all immediately said they would definitely kill him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cIs it possible that instead of being angry, she would look at him with love in her eyes?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Feng Chuan said concisely: &#8220;Only if I went crazy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But then she realized why Wang Qi had said something like that.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cCould it be that your friend\u2019s actual husband\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The younger cousin silently sent a confirming emoji.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The girls in the chat: \u201c\u2026?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">They were all stunned, feeling that the world had gone crazier than they could imagine. Meanwhile, in reality, Kaizer let out a light laugh. His long fingers gently traced the edge of his teacup, and his tone was relaxed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cThanks to that Scania having been modified\u2014the truck driver\u2019s love for heavy-metal decorations spared my life a little.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The man spoke casually, but the handsome young man\u2019s pupils instantly contracted. His fingers clenched so tightly that they turned white. Though his expression stayed calm, his voice trembled slightly: \u201cYou\u2026 were really in the truck at that time?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun and Assistant Wang also stared at the man in shock, especially Assistant Wang.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He had seen the car accident scene with his own eyes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">That Lincoln looked pitiful, like the eldest grandson in his grandmother\u2019s eyes. Despite its enormous size, it looked flattened, as if one person could lift that piece of metal. At the time, Assistant Wang thought that if anyone were really inside, they would never survive.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">That had been a Scania! The autopsy later confirmed this.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But now\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang trembled slightly, staring at the tall man as if he were an alien. Even if the Scania had tilted slightly due to the heavy-metal decorations, a normal human could never survive such a situation!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer nodded. His blue eyes remained calm, as if escaping from a dump truck were just an ordinary outdoor hike. A meaningful smile played at the corner of his lips. \u201cOf course, after all, I was the protagonist in this scene\u2014without a protagonist, the drama is incomplete from the start.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The handsome young man\u2019s face instantly paled further. His lips moved slightly, then\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cYou are fucking insane.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer\u2019s smile deepened. He didn\u2019t care about Ye Wangxing\u2019s angry shout, in fact, he seemed visibly more pleased.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer\u2019s expression made the handsome young man click his tongue impatiently.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cBut darling, you enjoy this kind of thrill, don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The tall man propped his chin on his hand, his large hand conveniently covering his scar. He smiled just as he had when chatting with his partner in the study, making Assistant Wang feel as if he had traveled back a year.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Then he heard the man say lightly:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cJust like when you tried to team up with your three lovers to kill me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Everyone present: &#8220;\u2026&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cAh???\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Hearing this, the others couldn\u2019t help but exclaim. Song Yun reacted the fastest, he immediately prepared to rush forward to shield Ye Wangxing, fearing his brother would actually get hit.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang stood to the side, feeling his heart nearly stop.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u2014How could this big shot reveal the truth so openly? Luckily, the villa had been cleared of bugs beforehand. Otherwise, such an explosive move could have affected stock prices\u2014or even endangered lives!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But fortunately, it wasn\u2019t him who would have gone in.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang instinctively looked toward the other three, but\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Their expressions were unlike his boss, who had stiffened. They weren\u2019t panicked or nervous, some even seemed\u2026 pleased?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang stiffly thought\u2014he suddenly felt grateful that back when he worked for his boss, he hadn\u2019t become a thorn in their eyes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As Assistant Wang clasped his hands again, thanking the country silently, Chris, his arch-nemesis, struck first.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cKaizer, dead people should stay where dead people belong. Your kind of \u2018resurrection\u2019 is not very welcome\u2014let alone calling it murder,\u201d The red-haired man said teasingly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cWe were only trying to save a poor person driven insane by her husband\u2019s omnipresent control,\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The blonde man, for the first time, agreed with his rival.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer, before my dear came to me, I never imagined he had been under 24-hour surveillance, even so anxious he couldn\u2019t sleep\u2014that day, he truly broke my heart.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The blonde man sighed and shook his head.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Will, Kaizer\u2019s younger brother, looked pitifully at Ye Wangxing, then at his own elder brother, and resolutely put on a solemn, righteous expression.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cBrother, I will take care of my sister-in-law!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer turned, letting his gaze pass over the three men before finally settling on the handsome young man who pressed his lips together, looking unreadable. His lips still carried that casual smile as he spoke softly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cMy dear brothers, you truly make me feel gratified\u2014I didn\u2019t expect your bond to be this strong.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer said this, feigning innocence.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cIt\u2019s so strong it even moves me,\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The three others: &#8220;\u2026&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The three men faltered. Each clenched their teeth and glared at Kaizer, as if they wanted to bury him back in his grave.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang felt his back drenched in cold sweat and nearly lost his grip on the teapot.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">His eyes darted between the four men as he silently prayed for the confrontation to end quickly. He even cast a desperate glance at his boss, but Ye Wangxing didn\u2019t notice. He appeared calm but stared straight at Kaizer.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer, however, seemed unconcerned, smiling calmly as if it were all just a game.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As time passed, the living room grew so tense it felt like water could drip from it. The air carried an invisible scent of gunpowder.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang stood aside, feeling like he was in the eye of a brewing storm, constantly wiping cold sweat.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The living room atmosphere was taut, like a battlefield filled with gunpowder that only needed a spark to ignite everything.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Then the handsome young man moved.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He took a deep breath. The heavy golden neck collar on his neck rubbed against his skin, causing it to redden slightly. Then he spoke.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cSo, you want to kill me and make me atone?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">His expression stayed calm. His eyes toward Kaizer seemed resigned, but\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer still showed little emotional fluctuation. He stared deeply at Ye Wangxing for a long time, then spoke softly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cNo. In fact, even if our marriage ends, you remain my partner. No one can change that fact. Moreover\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cI know that Scania wasn\u2019t your doing,\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">the man said with a smile, making everyone present turn their heads to look at him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cYou wouldn\u2019t resort to such a foolish method. Though simple and effective, it\u2019s only suitable for those who, even in death, cannot deal with the culprit. Darling, I believe I deserve a better, more meticulous plan in your mind,\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer said, and no one could misread the joy on his face.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun: &#8220;\u2026&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The younger cousin: &#8220;\u2026&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Assistant Wang: &#8220;&#8230;&#8221; Is this really something to be proud of?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As for Ye Wangxing\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He stayed silent.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer was even happier.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cAs expected, later some very hidden toxins were found in my body\u2014darling, I suffered a lot to eliminate those toxins within half a year,\u201d The man said, somewhat coquettishly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun: &#8220;&#8230;&#8221; What is this, a plot like a patient forced to take medicine?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Though he made that remark, Song Yun felt that something was slightly off. He sat up straighter, fearing he might hear even more explosive news.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Before Kaizer could continue, Ye Wangxing, having heard Kaizer speak, seemed to suddenly realize something.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He looked up at the man sharply and spoke through gritted teeth.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201c\u2014You knew I would poison you, and you knew I had dealings with those three, even knew parts of the plan, but you probably didn\u2019t know the details, so you really got poisoned.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cBut you weren\u2019t reckless with life, nor did you love me so much that you would let me kill you willingly. Rather\u2014the old relics with intent tried to target you, so you staged the scenario to make it look like we attacked you to lower their guard, since in their eyes you were someone who, even after death, couldn\u2019t deal with the culprit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cYou also knew I collaborated with those three, inevitably walking into a trap, but you know me\u2014you know I would never willingly walk among them. So I took my property to a safe place.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cAnd for me, no country is safer than my homeland.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The handsome young man spoke calmly, though his voice carried increasing emotion.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cYou personally risked so much, leaving behind a fake organization of clones just to transfer the entire Gore family inheritance to our country, and I\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The beautiful young man pointed at himself sharply and said: \u201cYou\u2019re just using me as a tool, right?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Kaizer remained silent for a moment, then clapped his hands.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This was a sign of agreement, and the little cousin, Song Yun, and Assistant Wang all blinked in confusion.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">No, how did Ye Wangxing get so much information from such a short sentence? And how did it even involve asset transfers afterward?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">While they were puzzled, the tall man sitting on the sofa lowered his clapping hands and looked gently at Ye Wangxing, who had remained silent ever since seeing the man applaud.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cYou guessed correctly. We really are the people who understand each other best, but\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The man\u2019s voice turned serious.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cBaby, you\u2019re not just a tool. We just understand each other too well. You know, even though my possessiveness can be unbearable, you can\u2019t leave me \u2014 and I also know that to protect both you and my family, only you have the ability to take the assets away.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">As he spoke, a smile returned to the man\u2019s face. \u201cFinally\u2026 baby, murdering your husband is not a good habit. You need to learn a lesson.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He opened his arms, seemingly inviting Ye Wangxing to fall into them and reconcile, but\u2026<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The beautiful young man snorted and looked up at him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cI admit we understand each other very well. You even used someone else\u2019s plan to fake your death successfully in front of me, but\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cUnderstanding each other doesn\u2019t mean we are compatible \u2014 mentally compatible, Kaizer.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He looked at Kaizer as if to continue, then quickly added, raising his phone calmly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cI still have the footage of you breaking into a private residence. I don\u2019t know how you got in, but you definitely did.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The man still smiled, but the curve of his lips was shrinking.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cYou said I would return to China because it was safe, and indeed it is \u2014 safe enough that if I called the police, someone would respond, and most of the time, they couldn\u2019t be bribed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The beautiful young man finally showed a faint smile, glancing at the expressionless man.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cKaizer, do you want to see what a police chief in China looks like?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The room fell silent for a long moment. The other three men pondered, then exhaled in relief.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">They seemed thankful that they hadn\u2019t broken any laws in China, and their expressions relaxed as they looked at Kaizer, the only one who might have ended up in trouble back home.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Their sense of superiority was unmistakable.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But one had to admit, experience made Kaizer all the more formidable. Those extra fifteen years had not been wasted.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He leaned back slowly on the sofa, rested his hand against his cheek, and chuckled lightly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cOh? Really? That is quite troublesome, so\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cBaby, the matter has reached a conclusion, and you should make your decision.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The man\u2019s voice was gentle.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cWho\u2026 among the four of us will you choose?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The other three men instantly raised their heads.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The living room grew tense again. The four men stared at Ye Wangxing in unison.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Their gazes carried seriousness, even though they knew the young man might evade the question. At least now, their attitudes were clear.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">After all, they all knew Kaizer held an extremely important place in Ye Wangxing\u2019s heart. If they didn\u2019t act while Kaizer provoked him, who knew what methods he might use to win Ye Wangxing back later?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u2014\u2014If he couldn\u2019t be the head, he would at least maintain the title of \u201cthe mistress.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Ye Wangxing sat on the sofa, calm in expression, but his face had started to pale.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun looked at the tense living room and sighed once again. Truly, juggling multiple relationships was not something everyone could handle \u2014 especially when all those \u201cships\u201d were luxurious yachts.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>\u2018No wonder Shi Xuanzhu didn\u2019t dare do this in front of me\u2026\u2019<\/i><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun thought, but his emotions grew restless. The tension in the air was thickening, and he worried that his brother might really mess up.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Just as he fretted, a WeChat message popped up on his phone. Instinctively, he opened it and found it was from the director.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun was initially confused \u2014 why would the director message him? They weren\u2019t that close \u2014 until he opened the attached photo.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">In the photo, the director stood stiffly in a high-end restaurant, wearing a fancy dress.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But that wasn\u2019t the point.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The background was.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u2014\u2014There was Shi Xuanzhu, Song Yun\u2019s husband, sitting across from an unfamiliar woman!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He was dressed formally, talking and laughing warmly with the woman, looking like an ordinary couple in love!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The director had even captured them holding each other\u2019s wrists!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun\u2019s pupils constricted instantly. Rage surged through his head, making it throb painfully.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He knew Shi Xuanzhu had been emotionally unfaithful, but he hadn\u2019t expected him to be so brazen. The live broadcast had just ended, and he dared to go to a high-end restaurant with another woman! He completely disregarded him!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">But then Song Yun calmed down. Knowing Shi Xuanzhu, perhaps he had chosen this moment deliberately \u2014 right after the show ended, when no one would suspect him, reducing the risk of being caught.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Still, Song Yun\u2019s hands trembled with anger. He had assumed Shi Xuanzhu\u2019s emotional affair was just chatting, but who emotionally cheats and grabs someone else\u2019s hand?!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">If Shi Xuanzhu were in front of him now, Song Yun might have seriously considered the possibility of inheritance manipulation his brother had mentioned.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He raised his head, about to excuse himself, but seeing the tense atmosphere and Ye Wangxing\u2019s pale face, he suddenly realized something.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The chance he had been desperately searching for to break the stalemate was right in front of him!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun\u2019s eyes lit up. He looked at Ye Wangxing with ambition shining in his heart.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Silently, he said to Shi Xuanzhu: \u201cGood job, Xuanzhu. But this is what you deserve.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He quickly adjusted his expression, adopting a look of betrayal and hurt, his eyes slightly reddened, voice trembling with a hint of sobs as he shouted,<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cWangxing, your brother is cheating!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">His voice was loud enough for everyone in the living room to hear.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The previously tense few immediately turned to look at Song Yun.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The beautiful young man froze for a moment, then looked at Song Yun with shock, which quickly turned into gritted teeth and anger.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The four men were also drawn to the sudden turn of events. Their attention shifted from the young man to Song Yun, their expressions all serious. Chris stopped smiling, Octo grin turned stern, and Will expression mirrored his brother\u2019s, cold and murderous.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun swallowed, then recalling the earlier tension, he closed his eyes, steeled himself, and walked quickly to the young man.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He handed him the phone, voice choking, hands trembling.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cLook, the director just sent this photo\u2026 Xuanzhu\u2026 he\u2019s\u2026 he\u2019s on a date with another woman in a high-end restaurant!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun seemed like a sorrowful figure, his voice full of sobs.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cI thought it was only an emotional affair. Who would have thought it would go this far! He didn\u2019t even take me to this restaurant!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cI thought when we married, he would promise to be good to me forever, but\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Song Yun shook his head, striking another pose of heartbreak.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cIt\u2019s only been a few years, and he\u2019s done this!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">His words broke his heart and made the young man\u2019s expression more serious. He took the phone, glanced down, and his face darkened.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Looking up at Song Yun, concern filled his eyes. He comforted him briefly, then turned to the men behind him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cLet\u2019s set today\u2019s matters aside for now. I need to handle family affairs first. You can leave, and Assistant Wang, contact a defense lawyer \u2014 one for me. Tell me how to deal with him quickly, harshly, and without getting caught.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The young man\u2019s voice carried a hint of gritted teeth.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">However, the four men did not follow his instructions. They stayed and called out to Ye Wangxing.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cDarling, if you don\u2019t mind, I want to help your brother \u2014 my bodyguards have been idle lately. China is so safe, we can put them to use.\u201d The blonde man smiled, already rising to contact the bodyguards \u2014 catching someone cheating requires backup, after all.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cSweetheart, your brother\u2019s business is my business. I\u2019ve been involved in the entertainment industry recently \u2014 and if there\u2019s a date afterward, even better.\u201d The red-haired man grinned, seizing the opportunity.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cWangxing, do you want me to go through all the chat records on his phone?\u201d The silver-haired man asked seriously, already starting on his laptop.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The tall man casually stood beside Ye Wangxing, smiling.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cAs someone who\u2019s never met my brother-in-law, I think I should also help.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Ye Wangxing remained silent for a moment. He didn\u2019t refuse their help, instead waving for all four men to join him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Seeing the final lineup, Song Yun clasped his hands silently \u2014 starting to pray for Shi Xuanzhu.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>\u2018Hopefully, he\u2019ll remain in one piece.\u2019<\/i> Song Yun thought.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"left\">\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These words instantly caused a truce on site.
