the closer it was to noon, the hotter it became.

the autumn sun baked the ground, making people dizzy.

mother xu tugged at the man’s clothes, her eyes tearing as if she had finally found an outlet to vent her anger. her fingers clutched his collar tightly, trembling with excitement.

duan linbai squinted his eyes and sized up xu shunqin.

this person had only brought gifts from his house, and mama xu would definitely think that it was someone from their family, but in fact …

this was the xu family’s.

when the reporters had blocked xu jiamu’s house, duan linbai had sent people to investigate. however, due to the demolition, the water and electricity in many places had been cut off, and there was no way to check the surveillance cameras, so they couldn’t find the reporters.

“ma ‘am, you’ve got the wrong person.” that person was really scared to the point of confusion.

“i can’t be wrong, it’s you!” mother xu said with certainty. she clutched his collar and refused to let go as she turned to look at the duan family.

” you guys really had a good plan. you tried to drive a wedge between us and deliberately called the police to arrest us. in the end, you forced us to sign the severing agreement. ”

” it’s just that you want to cut off all ties with gamu. that way, you’ll have one less poor relative. ”

“are you afraid that we will pester you and embarrass you?”

……

lin yuxian happened to be standing in front of her. she knew a little about the reporters and could roughly guess what was going on. she narrowed her eyes and looked at the xu family who were being held back.

” mrs. duan, i really don’t know what she’s talking about. ” he was a man, after all, and with a sudden burst of strength, he broke free from the restraints, causing mother xu to stagger back and almost fall.

” are you crazy? i don’t even know you. why are you pulling me? ”

“what nonsense are you talking about?”

mother xu looked coldly at everyone present and chuckled as if she suddenly understood something.

” i finally understand. your duan family really has a well-thought-out plan. you deliberately set us up. xu jiamu, you should take a good look at this family’s true colors! ”

“they did it on purpose. this is all a trap.”

” it was all part of their plan to sow discord between us. i told you that the reporter couldn’t be contacted after the incident. it must have been fake. they wanted you to cut off all ties with us. ”

……

xu jiamu’s mind was in a daze.

the duan family hired reporters to deliberately lead her parents to beijing and then set a trap … just for her?

all of this was too outrageous.

duan linbai was also dumbfounded.

to be honest, if he had such a black-bellied brain, he wouldn’t have been at a disadvantage every time he negotiated with fu chen and his group.

but the xu family?

they had no enmity with each other, so why did she have to scheme against him like this?

she didn’t have time to think about it. lin yuxian had already spoken, ” madam, what do you mean by this? ”

“this was all planned by you guys. i knew it. how could you guys be here at the graduation ceremony? you even took out the severing of ties so quickly. you must have prepared this long ago.”

lin yuxian pursed his lips and smiled. ” you might not know about the existence of a team of lawyers. moreover, this kind of agreement has a template. even if you want a divorce agreement now, i can get it for you in a few minutes. ”

” stop playing dumb. didn’t you guys send this person on purpose? ” mama xu pointed at the person who was still adjusting his collar.

lin yuxian didn’t expose him and just smiled.

“you said he was the reporter who went to your house?”

“of course!”

“where’s the evidence?”

evidence?

mama xu was taken aback. ” i know him? ”

“just based on one person i know, i can easily find someone. you think it’s him just because you say so? who do you think you are? in today’s society, everything we do needs evidence. you say he’s a reporter, and you’re going to show us evidence?”

“otherwise …”

lin yuxian raised his hand and tugged at the apron around his waist. ” don’t come here and shamelessly accuse our duan family of setting up a trap to bully people. ”

“aren’t your words a little too unconvincing?”

“then tell me, have you been to Ning County?” mama xu pointed at the man.

the man was stunned. ” i’ve been following master this year. i’ve never been to Ning County except for jinling and beijing. ”

“nonsense, how could you not have been there!”

“we’ve always been together.” the man pointed to the other two people beside him, and they nodded in agreement.

they rarely acted alone, let alone go to Ning County, which was thousands of miles away. it was impossible.
