"Damn you, Dongfang Yan!"
Master Dongfang was fuming with anger. His stern gaze swept towards Dongfang Yan, "I have always treated you well yet you dare to plot against me! Your intentions are clear! It seems that the position of General of the Enforcers is not suitable for you. I will find someone else to replace you. "
Dongfang Yan was stunned and her face filled with astonishment.
How could this be? How could the Patriarch believe such a lowly lie just like that?
"Patriarch, don't be deceived by this crafty woman. I am innocent. Young Master Lin can testify that I have never thought of harming Patriarch."
Hearing this, Lin Shao wanted to speak up for Dongfang Yan but was cut off by Master Dongfang's cold and stern voice.
"Lin boy, if you have nothing better to do, don't keep coming to the Dongfang family residence. Besides, it's not as if I am unaware of your relationship with Dongfang Yan. Your words cannot be trusted. Dongfang Yan, if you can find another witness to prove that she has framed you, I will believe your words."
Dongfang Yan nearly suffocated to death.
There are only the three of us here, where is she going to find another witness? Actually, Dongfang Yan could not understand why the Master's IQ had become so low that he would actually believe such nonsense...
"This..."
Lin Shao was shaken. He looked apologetically at Dongfang Yan before joining his fists at Master Dongfang, "Master Dongfang, I'll take my leave."
Once he had said his piece, he hurriedly left without looking back.
"Dongfang Yan, hand over the position of General on your own." Master Dongfang swept his dignified gaze across Dongfang Yan before glaring fiercely at Gu Ruoyun, "And you, get your ass into the study immediately."
Gu Ruoyun rubbed her nose. If my guess is correct, this old man is siding with me?
...
In the study.
The atmosphere was strict and oppressive, making it hard for one to breathe.
At this moment, the old man had changed into a clean and refreshing set of robes. Only his white hair and beard had not returned. Every time he thought about this incident, a fire would burn in his stomach and he wanted to vent his anger.
"Is it fun to set a fire? Is it fun to burn people? How old are you to still play with fire? "
Speaking up to this point, the old man was infuriated. He wished he could teach this damned girl a lesson.
"Didn't I say it already? It was Dongfang Yan who wanted to harm you. It has nothing to do with me."
Gu Ruoyun spread her hands and replied with a look of disapproval.
"Liar, continue to lie!"
The old man glared at her fiercely. "Don't think that I don't know the truth. You …"
Suddenly, his voice came to an abrupt halt as he stared fixedly at the jade pendant in Gu Ruoyun's hand. With a whoosh, he leapt up from his seat and quickly charged towards the young girl in front of him. He raised his hand in an attempt to snatch the jade pendant from her hand.
However, Gu Ruoyun was quick to react. Just as the old man reached out his hand, she quickly withdrew the jade pendant.
"You... Damned girl, where did you get this jade pendant?" The old man's breathing quickened as he stared anxiously at Gu Ruoyun.
Gu Ruoyun pursed her lips. "Where did you get it from? Of course, it's the pass my grandmother gave me. "
"What?"
The old man was greatly shocked when he heard this. He then lowered his head dejectedly and exclaimed angrily, "It's fine that she gave the jade pendant to Ze 'er but she actually gave one to you, you damned girl. She's being too unfair to me. Why is it that all of you can visit her at any time while I only get three chances a year? Damned girl, hurry up and show me that jade pendant. "
