"I wonder if Young Master Linlong has anything to say?" Hao Yi glanced at Linlong and asked.
"I have nothing to say, but that person has something to say." Linlong pointed at the middle-aged woman who had fainted from the slap.
Hearing his words, everyone, including Hao Yi, subconsciously shifted their gazes to the middle-aged woman.
She, who had fainted from the slap, had woken up at some point. She was sitting on the ground with a blank look on her face. When she saw everyone's gazes suddenly shift to her, her blank face suddenly revealed a look of horror.
Immediately after, she ran to Fangzheng's side and hugged his thigh, shouting, "Young Master Fangzheng, this isn't my fault, right? You were the one who instructed us to frame that young lady. You definitely won't let us be taken away, right?"
Such a change left everyone dumbfounded. They couldn't understand why the middle-aged woman, who had been fine just a moment ago, suddenly looked like she had gone crazy.
Of course, most importantly, her words seemed to have revealed something.
"You crazy woman, what nonsense are you spouting? What did I instruct you to do?" Fangzheng's face was already as red as a pig's liver.
He forcefully broke free from the middle-aged woman, then raised his hand to slap her unconscious. He did not expect his hand to be firmly grabbed by Hao Yi, who had walked over without him knowing.
"Big Brother Hao, this crazy woman is framing me. You must not believe her," Fangzheng hurriedly said.
Before Hao Yi could speak, the middle-aged woman had already changed her target and hugged his thigh tightly. "Young Master, it was Young Master Fangzheng who instructed me to do this. This has nothing to do with me."
After saying that, she suddenly let go of Hao Yi's thigh and searched her body with both hands. After a while, she took out a piece of paper and handed it to Hao Yi. "Take a look. This was given to me by Young Master Fangzheng. He asked me to do as he said … Oh, and this is the banknote he gave me from the bank."
As she said that, she took out another bank note.
Upon seeing this, Fangzheng's expression changed. Just as he was about to snatch the items from the middle-aged woman's hands, they had already been grabbed by Hao Yi.
"Young Master, all of this can prove that I have nothing to do with it, right? You must guarantee my innocence … I don't want to go to the 18 levels of Hell." Speaking of the 18 levels of Hell, the middle-aged woman's terrified expression appeared on her face again.
It was as if she had seen something terrifying.
At this moment, the three people who pushed Xiao Die together with the middle-aged woman looked at each other and suddenly knelt down. Then, they kowtowed to Xiao Die, Linlong, and Hao Yi.
"This has nothing to do with us. It was all Young Master Fangzheng's orders."
They spoke almost in unison.
"You …" Fangzheng was so angry that he was speechless.
At this point in time, even a fool would know that Fangzheng had been the mastermind of the entire incident. Thinking back to how they had nearly blamed Linlong and Yushu wrongly, all of them revealed looks of shame.
Shifting her gaze away from the paper and bank notes, Hao Yi shook her head and turned to Fangzheng. "Young Master Fangzheng, sorry for the offense."
With that said, she suddenly reached out and grabbed Fangzheng's hand. Then, she pulled Fangzheng onto the horse from before and rode away from the place.
"The matter has come to an end. Everyone, please disperse." Before leaving, his voice echoed in the empty sky.
"Master Dong, quickly go back and tell my father." Fangzheng's voice was also left behind.
In the market, the patrol team's authority was above that of any family, so it was not surprising that Hao Yi had taken Fangzheng away.
After that, the onlookers hurriedly apologized to Linlong and Xiao Die. Linlong could not be bothered with them and directly turned to leave.
Only Xiao Die stayed behind and said to them, "The truth has come to light. Everyone, don't feel guilty. Young Master and I will not blame anyone."
Fifteen minutes later, on a small path in the market, Zhang Zhi could not help but ask Linlong, "Young Master Linlong, why did that middle-aged woman go crazy?"
Zhang Zhi could tell that the middle-aged woman's madness was definitely related to Linlong, but even with his knowledge, he could not figure out the reason for her madness.
"This is where I differ from you." After a strange expression appeared on his face, Linlong did not give Zhang Zhi an answer. Instead, he took large strides forward.
There was no need for him to tell Zhang Zhi such a small trick. Of course, if Zhang Zhi had something of equivalent value to exchange, it would be a different story. However, it was obvious that Linlong did not care about what Zhang Zhi knew.
Even though Linlong rejected him, Zhang Zhi did not complain. On the contrary, the way he looked at Linlong changed. At this moment, he was even more certain that there was an old monster behind Linlong.
Such a person was not someone he could afford to offend.
This matter did not end there, because Fangzheng revealed an even more shocking inside story. This matter had been planned by the Lin family's Lin Yuanhe.
In order to kill Linlong, who had suddenly appeared recently, Lin Yuanhe had sought out Fangzheng and promised Fangzheng benefits, hoping that Fangzheng would take action and cripple Linlong.
Fangzheng felt that with Linlong's strength, he would not be able to obstruct him at all. Naturally, he agreed.
After that, they came up with this seemingly foolproof plan. Who would have thought that the plan would fail because of the middle-aged woman's madness?
Of course, most people did not believe that the middle-aged woman had suddenly gone crazy. They believed that the middle-aged woman's madness had something to do with Linlong. However, since Linlong denied it, they could only conclude that the middle-aged woman had suddenly gone crazy.
With conclusive evidence, Fangzheng was locked up by the Fang family's patriarch, and this was because he was the Fang family's young master.
As for Lin Yuanhe, the incorruptible Lin Qingshan stripped him of all his authority and locked him up in the family's dungeon. It could be said that Lin Yuanhe's influence in the Lin family had been eradicated.
The father and son being locked up in the dungeon at the same time could be considered to have made history in the Lin family.
In this matter, Linlong was the only one who benefited. Not only did he attract the attention of the various large family clans, but he was also listed as the Lin family's future hope by the Lin family's patriarch, Lin Qingshan.
Of course, Linlong did not care about any of this. The only thing he cared about was the jade on the beautiful girl's neck.
