“What nonsense are you talking about!” Lin Chi angrily rushed over, ready to hit Ruan Xingyao.
That’s exactly what he was thinking: if those two troublesome people were kicked out, only the four of them would be left at home.
So what if Lin Ye was a police officer?
The three of them working together couldn’t they easily overpower him?
But how did this damn girl just blurt out his plan like that?
How was he supposed to carry it out now?
Lin Chi’s gaze at Ruan Xingyao was filled with murderous hatred!
Bitch, bitch, bitch!
It was all this little bitch’s fault!
He noticed that Lin Ye and Xie Lin were already looking at him with suspicion and disgust, like he was a criminal, which made his scalp tingle nervously.
Damn it!
Lin Chi shouted fiercely at Ruan Xingyao, “You little bitch, how dare you slander me! I’ll sue you! I’ll make you pay!”
But Ruan Xingyao showed no fear at all.
Instead, she blinked her clear eyes innocently and said, “How is it slander? Isn’t this exactly what you planned months ago? Why deny it now?”
Lin Chi’s furious face twisted even more at her words.
He felt a cold chill down his spine and stared fixedly at Ruan Xingyao, repeatedly confirming that he really didn’t know this woman.
Yet she had exposed his darkest secret.
How could he not be scared?
Did this mean Lin Ye already knew about his intentions?
His gaze involuntarily flicked toward Lin Ye, but he saw no sign of anything on his face.
Swallowing hard, Lin Chi turned back to Ruan Xingyao and said, “Keep talking nonsense and see if I don’t tear your mouth apart!”
No matter how this damn girl found out, as long as he didn’t admit it, no one could do anything to him.
Once he realized this, Lin Chi instantly calmed down.
He looked at Ruan Xingyao and said, “If you’ve got the guts, then show some evidence! Otherwise, you’re just spreading rumors and slandering!”
Ruan Xingyao sneered and said, “I like your stubborn type. Isn’t the evidence right there in the backyard warehouse? You, who never works, suddenly bought three barrels of gasoline half a month ago. Don’t tell me you feel guilty toward your big brother and planned to burn yourself alive?”
The more she spoke, the more mocking her expression became.
Especially seeing Lin Chi’s increasingly shaken expression, Ruan Xingyao grew even more smug.
She even raised a finger and waved it in front of Lin Chi’s eyes, saying, “Three feet above your head, there are gods watching. What a person does, heaven sees. If you want no one to know, don’t do it yourself.”
Lin Chi clenched his fists tightly.
He was truly panicked.
Who exactly was this young girl?
How did she even know their house had a backyard?
And why did she know when and how many barrels of gasoline he had bought?
A monster!
She must be a monster!
Lin Chi took a few fearful steps back, staring at Ruan Xingyao in terror.
He pointed at her and shouted, “Monster! You’re a monster!”
Ruan Xingyao disdainfully touched her ear and said, “You just admitted it by saying I’m right!”
Only then did Lin Chi realize his reaction had clearly betrayed him.
In an instant, he became even more frantic.
Just then, Wang Hui suddenly rushed over and slapped Lin Chi across the face.
She pointed at Lin Chi with great disappointment and said, “Lin Chi! How can you even have thoughts of murder? He’s your big brother! You’re just too terrifying!”
Wang Hui slapped Lin Chi with all her strength, leaving him stunned for a few seconds, then he angrily raised his hand to slap her back.
But before he could move, he heard Ruan Xingyao clapping loudly, “clap clap clap.”
Interrupted by Ruan Xingyao, Lin Chi didn’t actually hit Wang Hui.
Ruan Xingyao said, “What a cunning bitch! You really think you can save yourself this way? How naive!”
Wang Hui glared at Ruan Xingyao with hatred, “What did you just call me?”
Ruan Xingyao: “A bitch.”
She pointed at Lin Chi, “Scumbag!”
Then pointed at Wang Hui, “Bitch!”
Finally, she looked at Xie Lin like a good student wanting confirmation and asked, “Am I wrong?”
Xie Lin was a little helpless but amused by Ruan Xingyao’s deliberately provoking attitude, his lips unconsciously curved into a slight smile as he said, “You’re right.”
Encouraged by Xie Lin’s confirmation, Ruan Xingyao proudly puffed out her chest and said, “See! I’m not wrong!”
Wang Hui was nearly furious to death at Ruan Xingyao’s behavior!
However, before she could say anything, Ruan Xingyao continued, “You two conspired in a murder plan, and now you want the scumbag to take the blame alone? Bitch, aren’t you a little too shameless?”
Wang Hui’s defenses completely collapsed under Ruan Xingyao’s words.
She kept shaking her head, unable to understand how Ruan Xingyao knew all this.
Could it be that Lin Ye already knew about their plan?
Impossible!
It can’t be!
Wang Hui looked at Lin Ye, trying to read something from his expression, but there was nothing.
That made Wang Hui even more scared.
At that moment, the old lady sprang up again, grabbing Lin Chi with one hand and Wang Hui with the other, her small, hunched body tightly shielding them behind her.
Clearly, she still feared Ruan Xingyao’s bold and unruly attitude from before and dared not confront her directly.
Instead, she put on the airs of a superior elder and glared at Lin Ye.
“Lin Ye! Are you just going to stand there and watch this crazy girl bully your brother and wife? Do you even have any humanity left?”
Lin Ye looked at her, like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
After a long moment, he finally spoke.
He asked, “Am I really a child of the Lin family?”
He had been pondering this question ever since.
Why, though sharing the same blood, do their values differ so greatly?
He wouldn’t claim to be a perfect person, but his education and beliefs had shaped him into an upright and honest man.
So why were his family like this?
The old lady hadn’t expected Lin Ye to ask that question and was momentarily flustered.
She almost immediately said, “Of course you are! If you’re not from our Lin family, then who else? Listen here, Lin Ye, you must never forget where you come from! You’re born of our Lin family, and when you die, you’ll be a ghost of our Lin family!”
“Clap clap clap!”
Another sharp round of applause rang out.
Ruan Xingyao said, “Old Deng! Haven’t you got any shame left? You lie as easily as you breathe!”
The old lady was so angry at Ruan Xingyao that she nearly had a heart attack.
She furiously shouted at her, “You damn brat! Shut your mouth!”
She realized it had always been this brat causing trouble.
If not for her, how could their family have ended up like this?
Ruan Xingyao clicked her tongue twice, then looked at the old lady shielding Lin Chi and Wang Hui, and suddenly laughed.
Immediately, the old lady felt a chill run down her spine, a bad premonition rising.
Ruan Xingyao said, “Old Deng, you think you’re protecting dutiful grandson and granddaughter-in-law, but they don’t think of you as their grandma at all!”
