Chapter 2678: Chapter 2676-framing Lin Yi
“Master, the old master is in the middle of cultivation. Please keep your voice down!” Yu Yi heard Xiaochen’s shout and jumped in shock, stopping him.
“Yu Yi, something big happened at home, Lin Yi took ning away, quickly inform father!” Xiaochen said to Yu Yi.
“Argh! Yes!” Yu Yi’s forehead was covered in cold sweat as he turned around to inform the elder.
At this moment, the old Yu’s voice came from inside and he appeared in front of Yu Xiaochen,””Xiao Chen, what did you say? Lin Yi kidnapped Yu Ning? Is that true? Are you sure? Lin Yi broke into our hidden house Yu’s Castle?”“Father, it’s like this, it’s Yu Shan …” As he spoke, he quickly told him about how Yu Shan wanted to go out for a walk after the meal, and how Yu Ning pushed him out. He also told him about how Yu Shan was unconscious, and how he claimed that Lin Yi took Yu Ning away after he woke up.
“Did Yu Shan say that?” The old elder was an old fox-he was panicking, but he was a lot calmer than Xiaochen, and immediately picked up on the unlogic,”What are they doing in the back mountain? Why did they have to go to such a remote place? Since Lin Yi kidnapped Yu Ning, why did he keep Yu Shan? why didn’t he kill him? Didn’t they have a grudge against each other back then?”
“This …” Xiaochen was starting to get suspicious as well,””I don’t know why they went to such a remote place. Should I go and ask again? But Lin Yi didn’t kill Yu Shan-it’s understandable that he didn’t want to make an enemy out of us hidden house Yu. After all, he liked ning, and it wouldn’t be good to kill her family …”
The old elder nodded, “Let’s go, we’ll go ask Yu Shan!”
“Yes!” Xiaochen and Yu Yi quickly followed behind the old man, and the three of them went down the mountain.
Yu Shan saw that his plan was successful and was secretly happy, but he still acted like he was out of his wits. Yu Qi had already arranged for people to expand the search area, and sent out all the Hidden House Yu’s people, but there was still no news of Yu Ning.
Yu Shan knew that Zhao Qibing must have left safely.“Yu Shan, why did you and Yu Ning go to such a remote mountain?” Yu Shan was just about to celebrate when the old Yu’s deep voice came from behind him like a clap of thunder, giving him a huge shock-he almost fell off his wheelchair!
“Ah, Grandpa …” Yu Shan had learned how to keep his emotions a secret after all this time of depression. He adjusted his emotions and came back to his senses,””Grandpa, we were talking about how to resolve our grudges. There were some servants walking around nearby, and I was afraid that they would gossip about our family affairs, so I told one of the servants to stay away from us. However, sister ning was kind enough to help him out and didn’t let me blame him anymore. Then, she pushed me to the back of the mountain, where it was less crowded and easier to talk …”
Yu Shan pushed all the blame onto Yu Ning, shirking his responsibility.
“Oh? Which servant?” The elder of house Yu asked.
“Ah? Not far from the entrance, there was a flower-making servant, I don’t know what his name was …”Yu Shan” paused,”before smiling bitterly.
However, the fact that Yu Shan didn’t know this servant alleviated the suspicion of the elder. If Yu Shan had found this witness right away, then that would be suspicious!
“Yuqi, go and ask if that’s the case!” The elder ordered.
“Yes!” Yu Qi responded and quickly ran out. Not long after, she returned with a servant.
The servant was the one that Yu Shan was scolding earlier-he was scared, but he didn’t dare hide anything. He told him everything, and it was the same as Yu Shan ‘s. Only then did the elder nod and believe Yu Shan’s words.
“You’re saying that Lin Yi kidnapped Yu Ning?” The elder waved his hand for Yu Qi to take the servant away as he continued to question Yu Shan.
“I’m not sure, I just thought that it was Lin Yi, but I didn’t see it clearly. I don’t know if it’s him …” Yu Shan shook his head.
“Alright, Yu Qi, push Yu Shan down first …” The elder looked at Yu Qi and gave him a look.
Yu Qi could tell from the elder’s suspicions about Yu Shan, and naturally understood what he meant now. He wanted him to keep Yu Shan under guard for now, and so he quickly replied,”Yes!”
Then, Yu Qi pushed Yu Shan out of the hall, and Yu Shan naturally understood that there were too many suspicious points in his plan. Yu Xiaochen was worried about Yu Ning’s safety and didn’t have time to think about it, but the old elder was different. He was a meticulous person, and he definitely saw through the flaws in his plan.
It was normal to lock him up now, and Yu Shan didn’t mind-once Qibing got what he wanted, he’d get what he wanted-he’d disgust Lin Yi and destroy house Yu as well, and he’d get his revenge.
After Yu Qi left with Yu Shan, the old elder turned to Xiaochen,”Xiao Chen, what do you think?”
“There’s nothing wrong with Yu Shan’s words, but they’re still suspicious. ” Xiaochen said after some thought. There were only the three of them in the hall, so there was no need to hide anything.
“That’s right, Yu Yi, call Yushu now and ask her where Lin Yi is. ” The old elder nodded and turned to Yu Yi.
“Yes! Old family head!” Yu Yi replied as he took out his phone and dialed Chen Yushu’s number.
Yu Shan never would’ve thought that the elder had a backup plan that could track Lin Yi’s movements! However, it didn’t matter even if he knew. Zhao Qibing had already left the range of the Hidden House Yu’s search. As long as he held on and pushed Yu Ning down, then there was no turning back. So what if he knew that it wasn’t Lin Yi?
Lin Yi, Mengyao, Yushu, and Xinyan had just finished school, and they went back to their rooms to practition after dinner, while Mengyao and Yushu were watching TV in the living room.
Yushu’s phone rang, and she picked it up lazily. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw who was calling! (To be continued.)
