Beautiful CEO's Top Expert-Chapter 875 - 0: Are You Deceiving Me?

Under the intimidation of Ye Xunhuan’s words, fear began to take root in the man’s heart, prompting him to speak against his will.

It was not that he wanted to speak, but that Ye Xunhuan was too cruel; he actually threatened to pull out all of his fingernails and toenails and to shatter all his fingers and toes!

He firmly believed that if Ye Xunhuan could utter such threats, he could very well carry them out, possibly even more brutally than described.

He did not think he could endure the harsh interrogation and torture from Ye Xunhuan.

Upon hearing the man’s words, Ye Xunhuan’s face immediately displayed an expression of surprise; he had originally thought that the man was a vanguard officer sent by Lin Zhennan, but the man claimed he was not sent by Lin Zhennan!

If not Lin Zhennan, then who could it be?

Who else would want him dead?

"Who is it?" Ye Xunhuan immediately inquired.

After hearing Ye Xunhuan’s question, the man did not answer right away, but looked at Ye Xunhuan with a face full of fear, hesitating and then said, "If... if I tell you, can... can you spare me?"

"Once I know what I want to know, why would I have any reason to kill you?" Ye Xunhuan said to the man indifferently.

The man swallowed hard, looked at Ye Xunhuan with some fear, and said, "It’s... it’s Yan Qingdi..."

Yan Qingdi!

Upon hearing these three words, Ye Xunhuan’s complexion changed slightly, while Qiu Ruoxi’s pupils dilated sharply at that moment, her face completely overtaken by disbelief!

Whether it was Ye Xunhuan, Qiu Ruoxi, or anyone else, they all found it somewhat unbelievable that Yan Qingdi would send someone to kill him!

Even if that guy wanted to see him dead, eager to see the Lin family perish, was there such a rush?

Didn’t he know that haste does not bring success?

And for someone as clever as Yan Qingdi, would he send someone like this man if he were really to send an assassin?

At the very least, he should send a devoted retainer, right?

In this way, no matter whether the mission was successful or not, his own involvement would not be exposed.

But now this man is claiming that it was Yan Qingdi who sent him to kill Ye Xunhuan.

This left Ye Xunhuan momentarily unable to understand. Had Yan Qingdi’s head been kicked by a mule?

"Nonsense, even if Yan Qingdi was foolish, he wouldn’t send someone to kill Brother Huan; and if he did send someone, at least a devoted retainer would come. I don’t believe that the Yan family has no such retainers!" Xiao Jiu immediately snorted coldly, "Your attempt at framing and shifting the blame isn’t very smart at all!"

"I am giving you another chance, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" Ye Xunhuan spoke slowly.

Ye Xunhuan didn’t believe either that Yan Qingdi would send such trash to kill him!

"I... I’m not lying to you, it’s really Yan Qingdi, he sent me..." The man said urgently.

"It seems you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin!"

"I’m not deceiving you, really, it’s Yan Qingdi, he’s the one who sent me..." The man roared somewhat agitatedly upon seeing that Ye Xunhuan still didn’t believe him, "I swear, it’s really Yan Qingdi who sent me..."

The next moment, a spark of revelation flashed in the man’s mind, and then as if a drowning person had grasped a life-saving straw, he said with great excitement, "Right, he must have guessed that even if I fell into your hands and spoke his name, you wouldn’t believe me..."

"You would definitely think I’m framing and plotting, you’re surely convinced that it’s Lin Zhennan..."

Watching the man before him grow increasingly agitated, Ye Xunhuan slowly fell into deep thought.

In a way, what the man was saying made sense, and this possibility could not be dismissed.

After all, the world is so vast and full of wonders; there are indeed those who delight in taking the less trodden path!

But it’s unknown whether Yan Qingdi is one such person.

Nevertheless, whether Yan Qingdi is that type of person or not, Ye Xunhuan must be cautious around him now.

After all, it is never wrong to be more careful!

"He wants you to have a showdown with Lin Zhennan, he must want you to clash with Lin Zhennan!" the man said excitedly: "You have to believe me, what I’m telling you is the truth, all of it is true!"

Observing the agitated and frantic man before him, Ye Xunhuan pondered for a moment, then turned his head to look at Xiao Jiu!

Upon catching Ye Xunhuan’s gaze, Xiao Jiu instantly understood what he meant.

He took a step and walked towards the man.

Seeing Xiao Jiu approaching him, the man’s face was immediately overtaken by an unprecedented color of terror.

"No... please don’t kill me... don’t kill me..."

Xiao Jiu looked at the man in front of him with disdain. This fellow really had no backbone.

But then again, who could really remain calm and face death squarely when it’s at their doorstep?

Xiao Jiu did not kill the man, but instead knocked him out with a karate chop and dragged him out of the ward like a dead dog.

After walking out of the ward, Xiao Jiu handed the man over to Shānpào, instructing Shānpào to take him away for now.

As for the man’s possible escape, Xiao Jiu was not worried at all; after all, Ye Xunhuan had broken his legs, he couldn’t run even if he wanted to!

After passing the man to Shānpào, Xiao Jiu did not blame Shānpào and the others for their negligence, because this was not something Shānpào and his group could have prevented. Besides, Xiao Jiu never expected Shānpào to be able to stop the assailant—their intention was precisely for someone to make an assassination attempt on Ye Xunhuan!

In the end, Lin Zhennan also came personally.

This would settle things once and for all.

Following that, Xiao Jiu walked back into the ward. At this moment, he could not possibly leave; who knew if there were people outside the hospital keeping watch!

The moment Xiao Jiu re-entered the ward, he started to regret it internally.

Regretting that he came back in.

In the ward, Qiu Ruoxi and the two other ladies were staring intently at Ye Xunhuan with wide eyes, while Ye Xunhuan sat on the hospital bed like a student who had committed a wrongdoing.

Looking at the scene before him, the phrase "tribunal interrogation" involuntarily sprang to Xiao Jiu’s mind.

The atmosphere in the ward was peculiar and even a bit oppressive.

While being gazed at by beautiful women is a pleasant thing, something that can make a man proud, the fact that all three women were staring intently at Ye Xunhuan made him feel extremely uncomfortable all over.

Eventually, Ye Xunhuan could no longer sit still, his handsome face flushed, and suddenly twisting his body, he pinched his fingers together and with a feigned shyness exclaimed, "Stop it, why are you staring at me like that?"

The sudden transvestite tone almost made Qiu Ruoxi and the two others stumble, nearly falling to the ground!

And Xiao Jiu’s lips twitched slightly.

At this moment, he only felt that if Ye Xunhuan didn’t become an actor, it would truly be a waste of his talents.

"Ye Xunhuan, you tell me honestly, are you not injured at all, have you been deceiving me?" Qiu Ruoxi stared at Ye Xunhuan and was the first to voice her questioning!
