Chapter 514: Chapter 514: Whose Child Is It? 11

Ou Yuze hadn’t noticed the commotion and, upon hearing this, immediately nodded, "Of course, I have to thank Mr. Lin for that. Rest assured, if I make a comeback, I’ll definitely not forget you."

Make a comeback?

Lin Yebai glanced at the brocade box that had been put away and withdrew his indifferent gaze, "That goes without saying. By the way, I’ve heard that the reason for your severe defeat this time was because of your little uncle?"

Ou Yuze’s face instantly turned ashen, "Yes, he sent a vile wench to my side who set a trap that I fell into."

A vile wench?

The words spat out, whether it was Xiaojin or the man sipping tea, a flash of ruthlessness crossed their eyes.

However, that ruthlessness soon disappeared after a moment...

"So, Mr. Ou, have you thought about how you’d like to take your revenge?"

"Revenge?" Ou Yuze held the jade box, his face filled with despair, a hint of frustration flashing across it: "How can I seek revenge looking like this now?"

"That might not necessarily be the case. Mr. Ou, do you still remember the case from five years ago?"

"That case?"

"The one where your adopted daughter committed a high-profile fraud. If my guess is correct, he must have discovered the secret of your adopted daughter and wanted her to help him in the jewelry business. That’s why he has been holding on to you so tightly."

He articulated slowly, without considering the impact or provocation his words might have on the man.

The secret of the adopted daughter?

Right, his family’s adopted daughter had an immense secret!

Sure enough, Ou Yuze’s face drained of color instantly. Clutching the brocade box, he stared fixedly at him as if seeing something inconceivable, "Mr. Lin, how... how do you know all this?"

The man drinking tea smiled elegantly, "Mr. Ou, have you forgotten what I do for a living? Did you really think that when your Longfeng rose swiftly years ago, no one else took notice?"

Ou Yuze: "..."

Staring at him, with his face deathly pale, it took him a long time to mechanically squeeze out a sentence, "So what are you implying now? Did Ou Mucen treat me like this just to get her?"

"Yes, he has to bring you down in order to overturn her case. Just wait, in a couple of days he’ll come looking for you. In fact, he might be searching already. As soon as you admit to framing him back then, he’ll definitely take you to court, and then swap the adopted daughter out."

One has to admit, the logic and rigor of the story the man concocted were truly beyond ordinary comparison. Every sentence, every reason, sounded so seamless, so invulnerable.

To get the adopted daughter?

Indeed, that woman had a pair of eyes that were exceedingly rare in this world, and Ou Mucen, just starting out in the jewelry industry, would undoubtedly gain an immense advantage by having her. Given that, his analysis really had no flaws to speak of.

Just a few minutes later, the fool completely believed his words, "So Mr. Lin, what should I do now? I can’t go to prison, I’m already in this state. If I go to prison as well, my whole life will be ruined."

The man holding the teacup smiled, "Therefore, Mr. Ou, when your little uncle finds you, you must never admit to anything. If he indeed pressures you, you could tell him that the adopted daughter is your woman. It is because she is your woman that she willingly went to prison for you."

He smiled as if he had transformed into another person, his cold and venomous aura chilling even Xiaojin, who stood by the side...

Why?

Why did he feel so uneasy in his heart seeing him like this, even though the idea was clearly his?

Why...
