Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

"Mrs. Shen..." Gu Tu wanted to say something else, but Chen Huaiqin stood up suddenly and interrupted him firmly, "That's enough, go now. Go back and tell Xiaoyi that you don't have to come to see me anymore."

However, before he could finish his words, a noisy conversation was heard outside the house.

Hearing the familiar voice, Chen Huaiqin looked panicked, "Oh no! Ling Tan is back, you should leave quickly!" He urged Gu Tu to leave quickly.

Shen Lingtan, the patriarch of the Shen family, is also one of the few ninth-level martial artists in Xuanzhou.

Gu Tu has been keeping an eye on the Shen family for some time. Today, he took advantage of the fact that Shen Lingtan was not at the Shen family's house and dared to sneak in to see Chen Huaiqin.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lingtan would come back so soon. If Gu Tu was discovered by him, a fierce battle would be inevitable between the two sides.

This is what Chen Huaiqin least wants to see.

Gu Tu also knew that it was time for him to leave. He lowered the brim of his hat with his hand and whispered to Chen Huaiqin, "Take care."

Chen Huaiqin frowned, thinking about how to let Gu Tu leave safely.

There is only one window in the room, and Gu Tu has only two ways to leave: one is to jump out of the window, and the other is to go through the main door.

However, the window faced the yard. Once Gu Tu jumped out of the window, the people in the yard would immediately find him, so this approach would not work.

But if you go through the front door...

"How about this, you follow me and I'll attract their attention. It's getting dark now, so be careful. They won't notice you."

Not only Shen Lingtan, Chen Huaiqin also heard Li Qingchi's voice.

At present, the patriarchs of the two major families are outside, separated by a door. As both of them are ninth-level martial arts masters, their senses are very sharp. If Gu Tu runs away directly, it will definitely arouse their vigilance; but if he walks past them openly, they will think that Gu Tu is a servant and will not pay attention to him.

Gu Tu immediately understood what Chen Huaiqin meant and replied in a low voice: "Okay."

Chen Huaiqin walked to the door and put his hand on the door handle.

She did not open the door immediately. Instead, she took a few deep breaths, adjusted her facial expression, turned the doorknob, and walked outside.

"What are you talking about? Why don't you go inside and sit down and talk?" Chen Huaiqin said to Shen Lingtan and the others with a smile.

Gu Tu followed behind Chen Huaiqin, always with his head down and back hunched, looking just like a humble and cowardly servant.

When Shen Lingtan saw Chen Huaiqin coming over, he said happily, "Huaiqin, look who's here?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Huaiqin, and no one noticed Gu Tu behind her.

Chen Huaiqin asked in confusion: "Who's here?"

Shen Lingtan replied with a smile: "Cen Yuan. I thought you two haven't seen each other for a long time, so I asked him to come and see you."

He didn't notice that when he said the name "Cen Yuan", the person behind Chen Huaiqin was stunned for a moment.

But one person noticed.

Li Cenyuan keenly captured this detail, and his eyes fell on Gu Tu.

"Cen Yuan! I heard that he's back, but I never had the chance to meet him. Come on, let me take a good look at him." Chen Huaiqin was delighted and relieved to learn that Li Cenyuan was there too.

She thought that with Li Cenyuan around, he would help cover up Gu Tu, and if Gu Tu was finally exposed, he would be able to escape unscathed with their persuasion.

Chen Huaiqin walked quickly to Li Cenyuan, and Li Cenyuan timely withdrew his gaze from Gu Tu.

"Aunt Chen." Li Cenyuan called Chen Huaiqin lightly according to what Li Qingchi had taught him before.

Chen Huaiqin looked up at Li Cenyuan in front of him, and suddenly felt something strange: "You..."

As if sensing Chen Huaiqin's doubts, Shen Lingtan quickly explained: "Cen Yuan had suffered a severe brain injury before, and his memory was damaged. He can't remember many things and is a stranger to everyone..."

"Ah... so that's how it is." After hearing the explanation, Chen Huaiqin suddenly realized.

Then he was startled, Cen Yuan lost his memory... That little butcher...

Chen Huaiqin had a bad feeling.

She tried to maintain her expression and turned back to tell Gu Tu: "Go to the kitchen and tell them that Cen Yuan is here. Ask them to cook some dishes that Cen Yuan likes."

"Okay, ma'am." Gu Tu changed his voice and responded respectfully.

As he turned to leave, Li Cenyuan suddenly said, "Stop."

Although Li Cenyuan withdrew his gaze from the front, he kept his peripheral vision on the person he thought was suspicious.

Because of Li Cenyuan's words, Shen Lingtan and Li Qingchi, who originally didn't pay attention to Gu Tu, turned their eyes to Gu Tu.

Chen Huaiqin's face froze.

"how……"

Chen Huaiqin wanted to say something to cover it up, but before she could finish her words, Li Qingchi, who was squinting at Gu Tu, said, "Are you Gu Tu?"

Oops! I've been recognized!

Chen Huaiqin secretly thought that something was wrong. She pushed Gu Tu hard and shouted anxiously, "Go!"

However, Gu Tu did not move.

Because he knew in his heart that it was almost impossible to leave in front of three ninth-level martial artists.

The only way to survive now is to fight.

If he wins the fight, he will leave alive; if he loses, he will die.

Since he had been recognized, Gu Tu simply stopped lowering his head to hide himself.

He slowly raised his head, exuding an extremely violent aura. His murderous eyes swept over Shen Lingtan and Li Qingchi, and he sneered: "It's me. Long time no see, two clan leaders."

When Shen Lingtan saw that the person who had been following Chen Huaiqin with his head down and shrugged was really Gu Tu, he was immediately furious and shouted angrily: "Gu Tu! How dare you sneak into my Shen family! Aren't you afraid that I will kill you!"

"Kill me? Can you... do it?" Gu Tu responded with disdain on his face, his words full of sarcasm.

“Little Tu!” Hearing Gu Tu provoking Shen Lingtan so arrogantly, Chen Huaiqin’s heart almost jumped out of his chest.

"Arrogant boy!"

Shen Lingtan was so furious that his hair stood on end and he was shaking with anger. He wanted to teach this arrogant man a lesson right away, but at this moment, Li Qingchi on the side reached out and stopped him.

"You don't have to do anything." Li Qingchi shook his head slightly, then turned to look at Li Cenyuan beside him, "Yuan'er, go and deal with him."

Li Cenyuan nodded without hesitation: "Yes, father."

After saying that, he walked towards Gu Tu, his eyes as cold as ice, as if he was looking at a stranger.

"Let's start." Li Cenyuan said.

There was a trace of shock in Gu Tu's eyes: "You want to fight me?"

Li Cenyuan frowned slightly, a little impatient: "You talk too much."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and attacked Gu Tu fiercely.
