"I have nothing to talk to you about," Ji Shiting said coldly. "Get out of my way."
"I remember your father, Ji Ziliang, died a long time ago, right?" Xiao Ruilang said with a confident smile. "Haven't you ever been curious about the cause of his death?"
Ji Shiting's gaze became sharp. "Get lost."
"Seems like you know something's fishy about his death." Xiao Ruilang smiled. "But you definitely don't know who the mastermind is."
Ji Shiting's eyes dimmed, and he pursed his lips.
He looked at Ye Shengge, helped her tighten her coat and said, "Let's go the other way."
Ye Shengge was dazed upon hearing such a secret, but she immediately nodded.
"It's not who you think it is," Xiao Ruilang said with a smile. "I have evidence here."
Ye Shengge could clearly see the man's pupils constricting, and his breathing became irregular.
She pursed her lips and said, "Why don't I wait for you downstairs?"
Ji Shiting fell silent for a bit, then nodded and said, "Go find Qiao Yanze or Yu Shuhang."
Ye Shengge nodded obediently, and Xiao Ruilang made way for her. He smiled and said, "Take care, sister-in-law."
Ye Shengge ignored him and went downstairs to the banquet hall.
It was the liveliest time in the banquet hall, and there were many people dancing, but Ye Shengge wasn't in the mood to join in the fun.
Her mind was completely occupied by what Xiao Ruilang had just said. She hadn't expected Ji Shiting's father to not have died a natural death. Could it have something to do with Xu Shaoqing?
Was that why he had been so cold to Xu Shaoqing all these years?
…
On the deck, Xiao Ruilang took out a cigarette box from his pocket and handed it to Ji Shiting.
However, Ji Shiting didn't take it. He said coldly, "What do you know?"
"My old man has always admired you, and he's taken care of you in business." Xiao Ruilang bit the unlit cigarette and smiled. "Haven't you thought about the reason?"
Ji Shiting looked at him and sneered.
"You know what kind of person my old man is. He's cold to the core. He doesn't even care about his own son's life. He just admires someone? Impossible. " Xiao Ruilang chuckled. "In the past, he always liked to compare you with me to make me hate you … I didn't understand it before, but later on, I realized that he did it on purpose."
Ji Shiting raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you saying that Xiao Cheng is the mastermind?"
"That's right." Xiao Ruilang chuckled. "He was the one who killed Ji Ziliang, but he didn't have the ability to destroy the Ji family in one go. Besides, your old man isn't someone to be trifled with. He couldn't find an opportunity to do so, so he decided to show his goodwill to you and make you lower your guard against him. At the same time, he made me hate you. If I have the ability to get rid of you, then he would be more than happy to do so. If I can't, then I will be used as cannon fodder to extinguish the Ji Family's anger. "
"Interesting reasoning." Ji Shiting nodded. "But what about the motive? You said that he killed my father. Why? "
