Chapter 400: Chapter 400 Impending Disaster

Mei Liping was the first to lose her composure. As soon as she heard the old master had also gone to Tokyo, she immediately pointed at her son sitting on the sofa and started scolding him.

Ou Yuze was already frustrated. Upon hearing this, he opened his mouth to retort, "How was I supposed to know he’d be so tough? I saw with my own eyes his car getting smashed off the cliff. If he doesn’t die, what can I do?"

"You—"

"Enough, stop arguing. Every time something happens, all you know is to quarrel. What’s the use?"

Right in the midst of their intense argument, Ou Muyuan, who had also come back after hearing the news, saw the two of them in the living room and couldn’t contain his anger, interrupting them both.

As it was, what could these two do? Aside from blaming each other and shirking responsibility when trouble arose, what else were they capable of?

He stormed in, anger radiating from him, and behind him followed a woman!

Ou Yuze, sitting on the sofa, saw her and his eyes instantly showed displeasure, "Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you not to come over if it’s not necessary?"

The woman instantly shuddered, "I... I came because I heard there was an incident, just to check on things."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mei Liping—who had just been arguing with her son—immediately directed two sharp glares at the woman, "Yang Xueshan, could it be that this was your idea again?"

"No, no, it wasn’t me, Auntie, I just..."

"Alright, it was my decision. She just helped me plan it a bit, Mom, do you really need to make such a fuss? Now that he hasn’t found out it was us, what are you so anxious about?"

The woman hadn’t even spoken two sentences, and Ou Yuze interrupted his own mother.

Upon hearing this, Mei Liping finally seemed to relax a bit, "You’re telling the truth?"

Yang Xueshan hurriedly nodded at the side, "Yes, Auntie, when we were planning this initially, we contracted another person for the job. Anyone who appeared publicly was that person, not Yuze."

"Who?"

"A judge surnamed Lin, known to Yuze. He’s a big shot in the antiques world in A City. With him involved, even if Mucen is clever, he won’t be able to trace it back to us."

"What you mean is...?"

"Based on the news I just received, the accident Mucen had at Tokyo Narita Airport happened because he was pursuing this Mr. Lin, so it’s certain that Mr. Lin has become our scapegoat."

Upon saying this, the woman couldn’t help but feel a sense of superiority.

Indeed, she had been worried and afraid when the issue first erupted. But as events unfolded in Tokyo, she had inquired about the situation there and, upon hearing the circumstances, her worries had eased.

Correct. They hadn’t thought of this initially while planning, but unexpectedly, due to a stroke of luck, that man ended up becoming their scapegoat.

After hearing this explanation, Mei Liping’s heart, which had been in her throat, finally began to settle somewhat.

As long as there was a scapegoat, that was all that mattered. With a scapegoat in place, they had nothing to fear.

Thus, the family sat back down, and even Yang Xueshan, who was usually not well-received, was allowed to stay for dinner.

However, what they hadn’t anticipated was that before dinner had even finished, Bai Tingfang from Bamboo Garden burst in with the butler and servants, seething with rage, "Men, tie up this murderer. Wait for the master to come back tomorrow and deal with him!"
