Shen Yanchuan withdrew his gaze, his expression calm and indifferent, as if he didn't care, and made it clear that he did not intend to make this deal with Xie Anbai.
He was already checking Ye Chutang. He would know what he wanted to know, so there was no need to waste time and energy fighting with Xie Anbai.
Seeing his reaction, Xie Anbai quit.
"Hey, no, are you really not curious at all?" He still hoped to exchange this news for some money from Shen Yanchuan! Who knew that Shen Yanchuan had no such plan!
Xie Anbai was unwilling to give in and leaned forward: "Really! Exclusive news! I guarantee you won't suffer a loss if you buy it! For the sake of our long-term friendship, I will give you a cheap price: one thousand taels!"
Shen Yanchuan picked up the teacup and sipped lightly, not even looking away.
Xie Anbai gritted his teeth: "Then...eight hundred taels?"
Shen Yanchuan made no move.
Xie Anbai took a deep breath: "Five hundred taels! It can't be lower!"
Shen Yanchuan was unfazed.
Xie Anbai couldn't stand it anymore: "Three hundred taels! Let me know if it can be done!"
Shen Yanchuan finally looked over and said, "One hundred taels. If you want to say it, just say it and leave if you don't say it."
"..." Xie An's white flesh was in pain. It was all because he was in a hurry when he went out and forgot to bring the money. Otherwise, there would be no need to bargain with this man so lowly!
He held out his hand.
Shen Yanchuan winked at Lian Zhou, and Lian Zhou immediately stepped forward and handed over a banknote.
Xie Anbai checked it twice, carefully put the banknote into his arms, and then laughed: "I said you like her, but you still don't admit it. If it were another woman, you wouldn't even take a second look. Yes, why are you still willing to spend money to find out about the other party?"
Shen Yanchuan didn't bother to explain to him: "Tell me."
Xie Anbai didn't waste any time, put away the folding fan with a "swish", and said mysteriously: "I have inquired, this Doctor Ye fled from the north with her younger brothers and sisters three years ago. You must also know this. I already know it, but—do you know where she is from?”
Shen Yanchuan's eyes moved slightly.
"you know?"
Ye Chutang and the others had been in Jiangling for three years, but no one knew where they came from, but Xie Anbai's tone was very firm.
Xie Anbai's eyes showed a bit of pride.
He chuckled, lowered his voice, and said, "You would never imagine that they are from the capital!"
Shen Yanchuan's fingers holding the tea cup tightened instantly, but his face remained calm.
"oh?"
…
The appearance of Mrs. Cao completely disrupted Cao Deping's plan.
When she shouted, after a brief silence, the surrounding area quickly became noisy!
"What did she say? The three people who died in Cao Chengwen's yard before were actually related to the Cao family?"
"Hiss—it sounds like Cao Deping deliberately asked Cao Chengwen to find those people to do things! But in the end, it probably didn't go well, and people died in Cao's house instead..."
"I've long suspected that there was something wrong with that case, and sure enough! Why did those people want to go to Cao's house in the middle of the night? And it was three against one, and the one who survived in the end was Cao Chengwen! This is not normal for anyone!"
"But what do they want to do? Didn't Liu Si plead guilty at the beginning and take the blame?"
Cao Deping broke out in cold sweat after hearing this, and felt flustered like never before.
He grabbed Mrs. Cao tightly and was about to force her to leave. However, as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by an official.
Yang Zhen asked in a deep voice: "Cao Deping! What she just said is true!?"
Cao Deping turned around, feeling angry, anxious and panicked, but there were many things he couldn't say in public.
Looking at his face, Yang Zhen thought he still wanted to deny it and suddenly patted the table.
"Tell me! Did you find those three people from the casino? What is their purpose!"
Cao Deping's lips turned white and he was trembling and speechless.
At this moment, Cao Chengwen's sneer suddenly came from the side.
"We are the ones who found it. The casino has a close relationship with our Cao family. Isn't it easy to find a few people to do the job?"
Cao Deping looked at him suddenly, veins popping up on his forehead: "Beast! What are you talking about!"
The joy of revenge appeared on Cao Chengwen's face, and his facial features were distorted.
Just now when he pushed him out with his own hands, he should have thought of this moment!
Cao Chengwen suddenly looked back at Yang Zhen, with a strange smile on his lips.
Yang Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and for some reason he felt uneasy in his heart.
The next moment, he finally knew where the uneasiness came from.
Cao Chengwen said in a strange tone: "If it weren't for my cousin, those people at the casino would probably not be willing to give me this face. Speaking of which, I would also like to thank the county magistrate."
The whole place was dead silent.
Yang Zhen's expression changed instantly.
…
Ye Chutang's lips curled up, very satisfied with today's drama.
From Cao Chengwen to Cao Deping, and then to Liu Yiyi, everyone has to pay the price for what they have done.
In full view of everyone, Yang Zhen had only two options: the first was to give up his official career, openly cover up, and let the matter go to waste again. The second type is to destroy relatives for the sake of justice and throw away the roadblock in front of you.
In his heart, which one is more important is the woman he likes, or -
"Somebody come!"
Yang Zhen shouted loudly with a livid face, every word seemed to be squeezed out through his teeth.
"Bring Liu Yiyi!"
Ye Chutang nodded lightly.
Oh, he's made his choice.
She had no interest in watching the rest of the drama and turned around to leave.
There were hurried footsteps next to her. She glanced casually and saw that it was Mr. Zhou who was here.
I originally thought that it would be too late to send Liu Si to death at this point, but when they arrived at the execution ground, Zhou discovered that Liu Si had not been executed yet!
She stood there blankly, listening to the growing discussion among the people around her, almost unable to believe it.
Then, she finally found Ye Chutang's figure. The moment their eyes met, she saw the woman smiling lightly at her.
Zhou's tears burst out instantly.
The next moment, the woman turned and left, and the breeze blew up, fluttering the hem of her skirt.
She has a calm face, warm black eyes, and a tranquil and peaceful temperament about her, which is incompatible with this noisy and violent environment.
Like a spring begonia swaying gently in the wind.
Ye Chutang walked for a while and when passing by the teahouse, he looked up as if unintentionally.
The man in a moon-white brocade robe was sitting by the window, looking down from a high position.
——Have you seen enough excitement?
Shen Yanchuan raised his thin lips and nodded gently.
——It’s very exciting.
Ye Chutang had no intention of arguing with him, so he looked away and continued walking forward.
At this time, Ah Feng should have already prepared the meal. She had to go back early, otherwise the meal would be cold if those people kept waiting for her.
Thinking of this, she quietly quickened her pace.
Shen Yanchuan looked at her leaving back and narrowed his eyes slightly.
She actually... is from the capital?
Then she and Xu Fengchi——
"Hey, let me tell you -" Xie Anbai asked gloatingly, "How come you girl run away when she sees you? Is this the first time you've been so disliked? What have you done to offend someone?"
