Chapter 280

“No wonder he was so energetic before, quite the actor!”

“The way she desperately tried to smear her own brother before, thinking about it now makes me sick.”

“They're both sick, this mother and daughter, treating their own family like this.”

“Not just sick, but vicious. The word 'vicious' should be carved into their foreheads. It's a curse for Jing Yan to have such relatives.”

“Joining forces with outsiders to deal with her own son is truly not a behavior that can be understood by ordinary people.”

“Jing Yu isn't any better, just now he was calling Jing Yan an animal, but I think he fits the description more.”

“Trying to pretend to be the victim, let's see if you even have the brain for it!”

“A scumbag, actually sacrificing his fiancée to frame his cousin. Look at the faces of the Cen family, they're livid. This is utterly humiliating.”

The expressions of the Jing family members were also quite grim. Everyone turned to look at Madam Xie, expecting her, as Jing Yu's mother, to explode in anger. Yet, at this moment, she sat there calmly.

This calmness infuriated Madam Wan even more, her eyes turning red with rage. She struggled violently, and if not for the gag in her mouth and the hands holding her down, she would have charged over to Madam Xie and started shouting.

Ji Fei, who had been watching the spectacle, suddenly felt something was off. Madam Wan's hatred for Madam Xie was completely unmasked. Was it just because Madam Xie had her people restrain them?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

By now, Jing Yu had revealed everything he had planned. Seeing Jing Yan's troubled expression, he laughed and said, “I didn't shortchange you. I didn't even touch Cen Ting, I left her for you. Consider it my exchange for the position of heir. Anyway, you're finished, and when Cen Ting returns, everything will be over.”

At this, Jing Yu arrogantly added, “Maybe, if you kneel down and beg me now, I might consider changing my story and leave you some dignity. But the position of heir? Don't even think about it. You'll always be my defeated rival.”

At this point, Jing Yan's aura finally began to change. He sneered, “Defeated rival? Winning by such despicable means, do you really think it's something to be proud of? You really let down your late aunt.”

“Shut up! I gave you a chance, and you didn't take it, did you? Fine, I'll make sure to pin the charge of forcing Cen Ting on you!” Jing Yu, seeing Jing Yan's defiance, instantly erupted in anger.

“Ha, do you really think Cen Ting will cooperate with you after you drugged her?”

“She's a woman who got involved with her fiancé's cousin at the engagement party. If she's smart, she'll play the victim. Otherwise, she'll be ruined. But even if she pretends nothing happened, it won't matter. I won't let her off the hook.” Jing Yu boasted.

Jing Yan was almost amused by his arrogance. “You really think you're something, don't you?”

Jing Yu didn't notice that Jing Yan's tone had completely changed. He was too engrossed in his own plan to see it.

“What, you think I can't do it? It's simple. Just get a doctor to examine Cen Ting's body and see if she's been slept with recently! That's not something you can argue against. If she refuses the exam, it just proves her guilt!”

As soon as he finished, a loud punch was heard.

“What gives you the right? Who do you think you are!” Jing Yan roared in anger.

The calm facade he had maintained while setting traps was shattered by Jing Yu's shameless proposal.

Even Ji Fei and the others hadn't anticipated that Jing Yu would resort to moral blackmail. Such a move was a complete humiliation for Cen Ting, a young lady from a prestigious family.

Everyone turned to look at Cen Ting on the stage. She lowered her eyes, her expression as cold as ice.

“Hit me harder! The harder you hit, the worse people will think you are when they see you later. Hahaha!” Jing Yu, unable to fight back physically, resorted to provoking Jing Yan.

Jing Yan breathed heavily, then let out a cold laugh. “Jing Yu, you're beyond redemption. But don't get too smug. Do you really think you can succeed? Let me tell you, Cen Ting and I didn't do anything.”

Jing Yu was stunned, then quickly retorted, “Impossible! If nothing happened, why were you hiding?”

“Don't you know how long the effects of the drug you gave me would last? If something had really happened, would I be awake now?” Jing Yan said coldly.

As he said this, Jing Yu began to doubt, unable to refute.

“I was indeed drugged, and Cen Ting was also incapacitated by you. But I still had my wits about me and hurt my hand to stay awake until help arrived,” Jing Yan continued.

Jing Yu seemed to have a moment of clarity. “It was Qin Xian and Ji Fei!”

“Yes, our friends brought a doctor and got us treatment, which is why we're back now.” Jing Yan said, “So your plan failed. Cen Ting is still a pure and good girl. You can't hurt her.”

Jing Yu's scheme was disrupted, and his face turned ugly. He glared viciously at Jing Yan, then suddenly smiled as if he thought of something.

“If that's the case, why did you ask me out alone? Isn't it because you're unsure inside? Even if you keep saying nothing happened, who would believe you? We found a crime scene! I can still demand Cen Ting be examined. Whether she agrees or not, I'll express my doubts and suspicions. I don't believe the Jing family will still announce you as the heir with such a suspicious cloud over you!”

“What crime scene?” Jing Yan immediately frowned.

Jing Yu became smug again.

“Naturally, the place where you two left after your 'fun'.”

“Bullshit, so it was another room you set up.”

“So what if it was? You were just unlucky. You see... that was the room I used with your sister. Since you were hiding there, we just gave it to you. Hahaha!”

Jing Yu still habitually tried to hurt Jing Yan by involving his family. Boasting about sleeping with his sister and conspiring with her against him, Jing Yu was deeply satisfied.

But for Jing Yan, it no longer mattered. His heart had already broken with the betrayal by that mother and daughter.

However, the hall was in shock.

Everyone ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‍was exclaiming, no wonder the ungrateful sister would treat her own brother like this; she was clearly siding with outsiders.

Again, they exclaim, the rich really are messy, and Jing Yan is really unlucky.

At this moment, Wan Ru's face turned the color of pork liver. Although she had been willing, she didn't want to be brought up in public like this. Jing Yu also had a loose tongue; how could he just blurt everything out.

It was truly over.

No one noticed that Madam Wan, who had been struggling violently just moments ago, went completely still upon hearing Jing Yu's words, as if her soul had left her body.
