Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

"..."

"Or you can take me with you?" Hua Chaochao said gritting her teeth.

He can also transform into a clone and turn himself into a big-headed ghost!

Yi Mu didn't know what Hua Chaochao was thinking. When he heard her words, his eyes lit up and he raised his head and asked expectantly, "Is it okay?"

"Do you think it's okay?" Hua Chaochao asked with a wry smile.

Yi Mu's eyes dimmed again in an instant, and his eyelids drooped like a wounded puppy. This look really made people feel soft-hearted.

It must be because his face is too cute.

Hua Chaochao raised her hand and Yi Mu's face instantly returned to normal.

...still very cute.

The cold and hard face is covered with a pitiful look, which is such a cute contrast.

Hua Chaochao couldn't help but sigh, if those trash under her could be as cute as Yi Mu, she wouldn't have to have a stern face all day long because she was annoyed when she saw them.

Hua Chaochao held Yi Mu's face in her hands, asked him to look at her, and then said in a coaxing tone: "Be good, I will come to see you."

After hearing this, Yi Mu didn't feel so sad anymore.

"How many times a day?" he asked.

"Ok?"

"How many times a day do you come to see me?"

"Once every two days."

"Twice a day."

"Once every three days."

"Three times a day."

Hua Chao Chao: ???

Why are you going too far?

"Don't push it, once a day at most."

"Deal." Yi Mu decided to stop while he was ahead.

Hua Chaochao: ...

Great, I actually learned how to trick her.

It is true that male beauty can mislead people.

……

The next day.

Today is the last day, but there is still no news from Fu Lan.

Li Qingchi didn't expect Fu Lan to be so cruel and completely disregard the life of his own son.

But this also confirmed one thing for him.

The fact that Fu Lan has not shown up yet just shows that he is planning something big, something that he would rather give up his own son to accomplish.

Li Qingchi didn't think that Fu Lan was afraid to show up because he was timid. After all, he had the courage to fake his death to deceive the noble family, so how could he not have the courage to come out and save his son?

Therefore, Li Qingchi firmly believed that Fu Lan must be planning something in secret.

Fu Lan's escape was a clear challenge to the authority of the aristocratic family, and other aristocratic families were also paying close attention to this matter.

Five days later, the three clan leaders visited the Li family again to discuss countermeasures.

Of course, as Fu Lan's son, Ji Xianchen also appeared in the lobby.

After Ji Xianchen was brought over, he nodded slightly to the four clan leaders as a greeting, and then sat quietly aside, allowing the clan leaders of the Qi and Song families to look at him.

Song Guwei looked at Ji Xianchen's intact limbs, turned his head to look at Li Qingchi, pointed at Ji Xianchen and asked questioningly: "This rumor is not true, didn't they say that he had broken his arms and legs? It looks like he has no injuries at all."

"It's just a show. Lord Xuan doesn't know that Fu Lan faked his death. Why make things difficult for him?" Li Qingchi replied calmly, but he was thinking in his heart: You think I don't want to get serious, but he has already given in. If I take it seriously again, I will seem like a non-human.

"He actually doesn't know anything?" Song Guwei asked in surprise, and turned back to look at Ji Xianchen, "Is this true? You really don't know anything?"

Ji Xianchen was wearing a mask, revealing only a pair of eyes. When he was questioned, his eyes were calm and he said calmly, "I really don't know. It was only after Patriarch Shen talked to me that I learned that my father was still alive."

Song Guwei seemed to understand something, and then turned to Shen Lingtan, "So you think Fu Lan is the person behind this?"

Shen Lingtan said calmly, “Except for him, I can’t think of anyone else who could have such a plan.”

"Is Fu Lan very smart?" Song Guwei recalled the past, "Why didn't I think so? He's a very docile person."

In Song Guwei's memory, Fu Lan was just an obedient "puppet" except for that time when he suddenly resigned from the position of Lord of Xuanzhou and went against the wishes of the aristocratic family.

"Perhaps it was his disguise that made us all let down our guard."

Shen Lingtan did not deny what Song Guwei said. If it weren't for the successive accidents of the noble family, he would not have thought that Fu Lan was such a scheming person.

"Wait, what do you mean? What person behind the scenes? What else did Fu Lan do besides faking his death?" Qi Man, who was confused on the side, interrupted and asked.

Ji Xianchen, who had been sitting there calmly, involuntarily sat up a little straighter. His curiosity was aroused and he wanted to know what Fu Lan had done to the aristocratic family.

As for Li Qingchi, he had discussed these matters with Shen Ling before, so he was not surprised at all.

"Oh, Qi Man, you don't know yet. We suspect that someone has plotted against Cen Yuan, Lan Yi, and Gu Tu, and designed to separate them. They all got into trouble in the same year, which is very strange. Also, do you believe that Gu Tu would kill Lan Yi?"

Song Guwei shook his head as he spoke, his face full of disbelief, "We watched them grow up, how could we not know the relationship between them? It would be harder than climbing to the sky to get them to kill each other. So there must be someone behind all this, and Ling Tan thinks that this person is Fu Lan."

At this point, he did not forget to sigh: "In those years, the three of them were the most glorious combination in Xuanzhou, but now... ah, fate plays tricks on people."

After hearing what Song Guwei said, Ji Xianchen was completely stunned.

His frightened pupils and slightly shaking hands all showed his fear.

Impossible... Impossible... How could it be his father who did it? They must have guessed wrong. It wasn't his father, it wasn't...

Ji Xianchen tried desperately to deny it in his heart, unwilling to believe that his father was the mastermind behind this series of conspiracies.

But if all this is true...then how will he face Hua Xi, Yi Mu and Uncle Qiu in the future.

Could it be that Uncle Qiu has been avoiding him because he knows what my father has done?

The more Ji Xianchen thought about it, the paler his face became. Fortunately, he was wearing a mask so nothing unusual was noticed.

"If you say so, that year was indeed a bit turbulent." Qi Man frowned, thinking, "But Ling Tan, you said it was Fu Lan who did it, do you have any definite evidence? We can't just draw conclusions based on speculation."

Shen Lingtan fell silent upon hearing this, he had no evidence.

Seeing this, Song Guwei kindly answered Qi Man for him: "It's wrong to guess wrong. Fu Lan dared to play tricks on us. Even if he didn't do these things, he must die. As for the mastermind, we will look for him after Fu Lan dies."

Qi Man thought this made sense, so she stopped worrying about the evidence and said, "Let's talk about the present first. Fu Lan is hiding and refuses to show up. Do you have any way to force him out?"

He has tried threatening his own son, but it didn't work.

At this time, Ji Xianchen was still in a daze, and he didn't even listen to their discussion on how to force Fu Lan to show up.

It was not until Qi Man called him that Ji Xianchen came back to his senses and found that the four clan leaders were looking at him. "What?"

"You are not serious. You are distracted at a time like this." Song Guwei questioned, his face full of dissatisfaction, "You make me suspect that you and Fu Lan are actually in the same group."

"Sorry, I was just thinking about something." Ji Xianchen explained.

Song Guwei: "Thinking about something? What are you thinking about?"

"I was wondering... where my father would be hiding." Ji Xianchen made up an excuse.

Song Guwei raised his eyebrows, "Have you thought of it?"

Ji Xianchen lowered his head slightly, looking a little guilty, "No, I'm not close to my father. I don't know him."

Song Guwei sneered: "Oh, I don't plan to count on you."
