"That’s right, I did it!" Xia Lianlian said hatefully to Xia Chuyi, "I just want to expose your true face, I just want others to know you are a hypocrite and make you lose your reputation!"

Faced with Xia Lianlian’s resentful attitude, Xia Chuyi was at a loss for words.

"Xia Lianlian... you want me to lose my reputation so much, but do you know, the rumors have already subsided?" Xia Chuyi shook her head, speaking from the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing this, Xia Lianlian said, "So what if they’ve subsided? Everyone’s just stopped talking on the surface, hmph, but inside, they have already seen through your true colors!"

"From now on, no matter where you go, even if no one dares to say anything, when they look at you, they will always think of those things!" Xia Lianlian said with a sinister tone.

Hearing Xia Lianlian’s words, Xia Chuyi understood immediately.

So, Xia Lianlian wasn’t unaware of the rumors subsiding; it was precisely because she knew that she called to provoke Xia Chuyi.

However, Xia Lianlian’s calculations were completely wrong.

In fact, Xia Chuyi didn’t care much about this matter.

Thus, Xia Chuyi said, "The innocent remain clear, the impure remain impure."

"Rumors stop with the wise," Xia Chuyi said calmly, "I don’t care about baseless things."

At this point, Xia Chuyi was too lazy to beat around the bush with Xia Lianlian and directly said, "Tell me, who is behind you?"

While speaking, Xia Chuyi watched the guards’ activities.

The house guards had already activated the signal tracking device.

On the other end of the line, Xia Lianlian was still oblivious.

"Someone behind me? You want to know?" Hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, Xia Lianlian didn’t hide anything and instead proudly said, "Hmph, I won’t tell you!"

"Anyway, it’s someone you can’t provoke!" Xia Lianlian said smugly.

"Oh, someone I can’t provoke..." Xia Chuyi said, deliberately dragging her tone, "I have the backing of the Ou Family and the Huo Family..."

"With the strength of our two families, the only ones I can’t provoke must be the Wan Family, right?" Xia Chuyi said deliberately, "So, could it be Wang Zijian leading the charge behind you?"

"But if it’s the Wan Family, there’s no need for such indirect methods; they could just abandon our two families." Since she needed to buy the guards more tracking time, Xia Chuyi spoke very slowly.

"Moreover, Xia Lianlian, don’t you know? The rumors you spread were precisely suppressed with the help of Wang Zijian’s leadership," Xia Chuyi continued, "So, the person behind you is obviously not the Wan Family."

At this point, Xia Chuyi glanced at the guard wearing headphones, who was operating the tracking device.

The guard made a gesture toward Xia Chuyi, signaling her to extend the call a bit longer.

Seeing this, Xia Chuyi nodded and made a gesture of understanding with her hand.

"Then... I really can’t think of anyone who can surpass the Ou Family and the Huo Family..." Xia Chuyi’s words became even slower, "Xia Lianlian, are you really sure the person behind you is powerful?"

"Could it be you’re just too simple-minded and got tricked?" Xia Chuyi said deliberately.

"Who are you calling simple-minded?" Hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, Xia Lianlian immediately got angry and said, "I think you’re the simple-minded one!"
