"You might not believe this, but you have been betrayed by the person closest to you!"
Chen focused his gaze and retracted his Chaotic Holy Eyes.
"The person closest to me? Who? "
Ye Zhilan and Yap Hongtian were confused. But, they were smart enough to figure it out on their own.
"Childe Chen sent Granny Si away. Does that mean she is going to betray us?" Ye Zhilan frowned and asked.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! "
Yap Hongtian's face turned black. He said angrily, "Jingan and I have a deep relationship. We share the same heart! She even said that if I die, she is willing to die with me! How could a woman like her betray me? "
"A woman's mouth is a liar! You believe everything she says? You are too naive! "Chen laughed coldly.
"Childe Chen! Even if you are my grandson-in-law! Don't forget about your seniority! "
Yap Hongtian became even angrier. He said sternly, "I will not allow anyone to defame Jingan! I will even ask Zhilan to reconsider whether or not she wants to be with you! "
Ye Zhilan looked at Chen and then at Yap Hongtian. It was hard for her to be stuck in the middle.
On one hand, Ye Zhilan trusted Chen.
On the other hand, Ye Zhilan had already acknowledged Si Jingan as family.
At this moment, Chen Xiaobei and Si Jing 'an were standing on opposite sides. One of them was bound to fall.
It was hard for Ye Zhilan to accept this result.
"Childe Chen, do you have some kind of misunderstanding? We all know Granny Si very well! She is definitely not the kind of person you say she is! "
Ye Zhilan pursed her lips and said, "If you have any misunderstanding, you can tell us. We will solve the misunderstanding! If not, my grandpa will be angry, and this matter will not end well! "
"I know you mean well, but there is no misunderstanding in this matter!" Chen said, "Actually, it is very easy to find out the truth. All you need to do is to cooperate with me and put on a show. Then, the truth will come to light!"
"Put on a show?" Ye Zhilan and Yap Hongtian were stunned. They did not understand what Chen meant.
"The traitors look loyal, and the hypocrites look real! All of them are acting! You guys have to act as well to see their true colors! "Chen Xiaobei said.
"Why should I trust you?" Ye Hongtian said angrily.
"Believe me, you can live! If you don't believe me, you will die! " Chen Xiaobei shrugged. Although he looked calm, he was still able to release a very strong domineering aura.
Ye Zhilan was slightly startled and said: "Grandfather, why don't we believe Young Master Chen this once, in case he is right …"
"Impossible!"
Ye Hongtian was still very confident. "Jing An will never betray me! This old man will not do anything to test Jing 'an! "
"In that case, I'll take my leave first." Chen Xiaobei shrugged and laughed coldly. "The day of the martial arts competition will be the anniversary of your death!"
After that, Chen turned around and was about to leave.
"Childe Chen, please wait!"
Ye Zhilan rushed over and grabbed Chen's arm. She asked seriously, "Are you sure what you just said is true?"
"Of course." Chen had lost his patience. But, Ye Zhilan had helped him before. So, he decided to be patient for her sake.
"Alright!"
Ye Zhilan took a deep breath, turned around and said seriously, "Grandfather! As the young master of the Yap Family, I beg you to listen to Young Master Chen this once! For the safety of the Yap Family! "
"Zhilan! Do you know what you are saying? "
Ye Hongtian said angrily, "As the young master of the Yap Family, you don't trust your grandmother, but an outsider! If this matter were to spread out, your actions would definitely disappoint the hearts of your entire family and relatives! How are you going to convince everyone in the future? "
Obviously, Ye Hongtian valued Ye Zhilan a lot.
Ye Hongtian had already planned to let Ye Zhilan take over the position of the family leader after his death.
That was why, at this moment, Ye Hongtian was still thinking about Ye Zhilan. He could not let her disappoint her family because of an outsider.
If not, Ye Zhilan might not be able to hold the position of the family leader.
"Grandfather! I have made up my mind! I believe in Young Master Chen! If Young Master Chen is wrong, I am willing to give up the position of the family leader and accept any punishment from you! "
Ye Zhilan's beautiful eyes were sharp. Her heroic spirit was released. She had the spirit of a woman who was not inferior to a man.
"Silly girl …" Ye Hongtian frowned, shook his head and sighed helplessly.
The expression on Chen's face also changed subtly.
Chen did not expect Ye Zhilan to trust him so much that she was willing to bet her future on him.
"Grandfather! I'm not stupid! "
Ye Zhilan said seriously, "If Young Master Chen is wrong, I will be the only one being punished. It will not do any harm to grandfather and the family! But, if Young Master Chen is right, grandfather and the family will be in danger! It's worth it to exchange my life for the safety of grandfather and the family! "
Chen and Ye Hongtian's expressions changed again when they heard this.
Obviously, Ye Zhilan sacrificed herself to protect grandfather and the family. This kind of courage and magnanimity made Chen and Ye Hongtian respect her.
Also, there was another benefit that Ye Zhilan did not mention.
If Chen was right, not only would Ye Hongtian and the Yap Family be safe, but Ye Zhilan would also gain some reputation!
After all, Ye Zhilan used her future as a guarantee for the family.
In the future, if Ye Zhilan becomes the leader of the family, the family will naturally remember her contributions and recognize her even more.
"What Zhilan said makes sense!"
Just then, Ye Hongtian's face showed a hint of shame, "I almost disregarded the safety of the family for the sake of my love. I was too selfish …"
Ye Zhilan quickly comforted him, "Grandpa, don't blame yourself. It's human nature to protect the people closest to you."
Ye Hongtian calmed himself down and looked at Chen. He said seriously, "Young Master Chen, how do you want us to act? Just tell us, we will definitely cooperate! "
"It's very simple! All you need to do is pretend to be dead! "Chen smiled calmly. His eyes were deep and wise, as if he had already seen through everything.
"Pretend to be dead?" Ye Hongtian and Ye Zhilan were stunned.
…..
On the other side.
Si Jing 'an, Ye Yankun, and Ye Linyun walked towards the main hall together.
"Both of you must remember! Do whatever it takes to stop Chen from prolonging the old man's life. If not, our plan will be ruined! "Si Jing 'an said seriously.
"Understood!" Ye Yankun squinted his eyes. His whole body was filled with murderous intent, "That bastard tried to ruin my plan. I will make sure that he dies a horrible death!"
"I have wanted to kill that bastard for a long time! Today, I will make sure that he suffers a fate worse than death! "Ye Linyun rubbed his palms together.
