Chapter 678: Chapter 679: Using a borrowed knife to kill is the smartest move
The past is like a knot of wool that can’t be untangled, tightly and intricately wrapped.
But now, it’s being unraveled bit by bit, laid out in front of Xia Yangyang.
She seems to feel all the pain, struggle, betrayal, and regret as if it were her own.
Nevertheless, despite her parents’ past actions, they were fundantally good people.
If it hadn’t been for Liu Ruyan, they wouldn’t have t such a tragic end.
Liu Ruyan was too astute at reading hearts, manipulating emotions at will.
She stirred up disputes, frad others perfectly, and hit her mark every ti.
The mother died amidst heavy misunderstandings and regret for the father.
Even in his death, the father couldn’t understand the mother.
A complete tragedy was designed by the person right before her eyes.
Seeing Xia Yangyang’s near uncontrollable state, Liu Ruyan’s smile did not fade, she appeared completely at ease.
It was as if she was rely catching up with an old friend.
Liu Ruyan sipped her tea, “Well? Do you wish to kill ?”
“I definitely wish to kill you right now,” Xia Yangyang admitted unreservedly, practically gritting her teeth.
Liu Ruyan replied, “But you won’t do it because you don’t have evidence, killing requires retribution, but manipulating others to kill is truly the cleverest way.”
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ve recorded everything you said and might send you to court?”
“Yangyang, I know you are studying journalism and you have a habit of carrying a recorder with you. But I also happen to know that you didn’t bring one today. We agreed to have a frank conversation today, to let you see where you failed. If you really brought those devices, I wouldn’t say a word,”
Liu Ruyan was right.
Liu Ruyan was smart and ticulous.
Her office door had an infrared detection system.
Activated recorders and mobile phones could easily be detected.
Liu Ruyan brewed another pot of tea, “Now that I’ve confessed everything I needed to, it’s your turn. How did you figure out that your father’s car accident had sothing to do with Xi Jiaxin and ? How did you set up Xi Jiaxin or tampered with her car?”
Xia Yangyang replied, “I found an incriminating photo of you and Xi Jiaxin in my dad’s drawer. The photo was dated a day before my father’s accident, and it struck that my father’s accident might not have been an accident at all. As for Xi Jiaxin’s car, yes, I arranged for it to be tampered. My purpose was to recreate the sa thod used back then, to make him suspect you. Including the photos of you and Han Cheng carried by him, I had them arranged too. However, I left him a way out that ti, which is why he could drive into the river and save his life.”
“You didn’t intentionally give him a way out, but wanted him to co back after , leading to an internecine outco. Yangyang, your manipulation tactic is truly malicious.”
“No matter what, I couldn’t compare to even a fraction of Aunt Liu”
Liu Ruyan rose, walking behind Xia Yangyang, placing a hand on her shoulder, “We’ve had a mother-daughter relationship, despite the fact you’ve never regarded as your mother. But Yangyang, hard feelings should be dissolved, not knotted. Aunt Liu is getting old and you’ve tornted to the point where I’ve lost my standing in my old age. In the past, I admit I did ruin your mother’s reputation, but her suicide was due to depression and her inability to think straight. You can’t entirely bla for that. As for your father, it was Xi Jiaxin who had his car tampered with. Now that you have wrecked , you have avenged the past.”
