Chapter 277

They were indeed not crazy; they were just more audacious than others.

Even if it meant losing eight hundred to win a thousand, they didn't care, as long as they achieved their goal.

When Qin Xian saw Ji Fei looking puzzled, he explained it to her.

"If this incident were exposed in front of everyone, even if Cen Ting and Jing Yan later accused them, it would be meaningless. Because under their manipulation, Jing Yan and Cen Ting would indeed end up in a relationship. Do you remember Jing Yu's cooperation during the engagement?"

Ji Fei realized. "If these things had happened before the engagement, there would still be room for reversal, and we could argue that they were already in love and decided to be together. But once the engagement was announced, their identities changed, and the consequences would be entirely different."

Qin Xian nodded. "Even if the Jing family knew that Jing Yan was framed, they wouldn't want to endure more scandal and loss. They would have to make a choice, to protect one and sacrifice the other. Since Jing Yan is already ruined, they would only choose to protect Jing Yu, the apparent victim in this situation. As for Cen Ting, they would have to settle for breaking the engagement and finding her a new match. Justice doesn't matter; what matters is the family's interests. And for the Cen family, they have no other choice."

Ji Fei was so angry that her breathing grew heavy. "That's so vicious! I can understand them wanting to harm Jing Yan, but to do this to an innocent girl for their own selfish desires, to make her go through such pain—have their consciences been eaten by dogs?"

Qin Xian sneered. "They indeed have no conscience."

"Now that we've stopped them, can we still expose them?" Ji Fei really didn't want the villains to get away with it.

Qin Xian said, "That's up to them. It depends on how they choose to handle it."

As they were talking, Qin Xian's phone vibrated.

After glancing at it, he went to open the window, and soon, shadows approached in the darkness.

Then they saw Guo Yalan and Luo Fei, who had brought a doctor with them, climbing in.

As soon as Guo Yalan entered, she quickly took Cen Ting out of the room. Seeing Cen Ting unconscious, she angrily pounded the pillow. "I'm going to beat those bastards to death!"

The examination was quick. After a shot of medicine, Cen Ting showed signs of waking up.

Jing Yan's situation was a bit more complicated; he needed a shot and wound treatment.

While waiting for Jing Yan to be treated, Cen Ting woke up.

As soon as she woke up, she sat up abruptly, clearly feeling that something was wrong. She had fallen asleep too quickly and deeply, and upon waking, she immediately went into a state of alert.

But as soon as she sat up, she saw a room full of people.

This unusual situation made her face change drastically. "What happened to me?"

Ji Fei quickly recounted the events, and then asked, "Did Jing Yu drug you?"

Cen Ting's face lost all color, and she was almost trembling as she clenched her teeth. "It was him!"

Just as she was about to ask more, a low growl came from the bathroom.

Cen Ting's face turned even paler.

Ji Fei thought she was worried about that incident and swore, "You weren't harmed at all. Don't worry, he held himself back."

Guo Yalan, in a more playful mood, joked, "Maybe Jing Yu doesn't know Jing Yan's sexual orientation?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Ji Fei was momentarily speechless and immediately looked at Guo Yalan.

Luo Fei was discussing the outside situation with Qin Xian when he heard this and said, exasperated, "You really shouldn't spread rumors about Jing Yan being into men."

Guo Yalan shrugged. "Isn't that the case? The guy's been single for so long. I've always suspected he likes someone in our little group, but since he can't get them, he's stayed single."

Then, she smiled at Ji Fei and said, "I especially suspect it's your husband."

Ji Fei couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

[Sister Yalan is truly a talent. She guessed half of it right! He does like someone in the group, and that's why he's stayed single, knowing he can't get them. But... the deviation is huge! If Jing Yu had that kind of imagination, tonight's plan's victim might have been a guy in our little group. Hahaha!]

Qin Xian: ...Your imagination is pretty big too.

"What are you laughing at? Do you think my analysis is far-fetched?" Guo Yalan pointed at Cen Ting. "Isn't this solid evidence? With that kind of drug, he didn't even touch her, hurting himself instead. Where else would that kind of willpower come from except if he likes men? I can't think of any other reason."

[Or maybe it's because he really likes her so much that he can restrain himself! Because he's afraid of hurting her and seeing her disgusted look!]

"Is... is that so? Hahaha, I'll have to keep a closer eye on my husband from now on."

Guo Yalan laughed hysterically.

Even Luo Fei chuckled.

Qin Xian: ...

As they joked around, Cen Ting's emotions stabilized. As for Guo Yalan's random speculation, she naturally didn't believe it. She trusted Jing Yan's character more.

At that moment, a noise came from the bathroom, and the doctor called them in to help.

Luo Fei went in and soon helped Jing Yan, who had changed clothes, out of the bathroom.

Jing Yan's brows were filled with fatigue, but he still looked up at Cen Ting the moment he was able to.

That single glance made Cen Ting stiffen, her eyes flickering, as if a possibility had begun to take root in her heart.

"Cen Ting, are you okay?" Jing Yan said awkwardly. "Don't worry, nothing happened between us."

Cen Ting nodded, then her eyes gradually turned cold. "I've heard about what happened. No matter what you think, I won't let this go."

Jing Yan was stunned, then slowly recalled the despair he had felt earlier. His eyes also grew firm. "I... agree with you, but you should know that if we expose this publicly..."

"I ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‍don't care about rumors. No one can set me up like this!"

Jing Yan looked at Cen Ting and finally nodded.

Ji Fei looked around and thought, [Oh, the show's about to begin.]

Just as she was thinking, she felt Guo Yalan pat her on the shoulder.

Ji Fei looked over, puzzled.

Guo Yalan said admiringly, "You really have a bit of mysticism in you. Following you really pays off with big scoops."

Ji Fei: ...Uh.

The rest of the arrangements were left to Jing Yan and Cen Ting, and the others left to wait and watch the drama unfold.

When they went outside, they found that everyone had apparently finished dealing with Jing Yu's antics, but he was still missing. The situation was getting worse, as they had discovered a room with clear signs of post-coital activity.

Jing Yu and Wan Ru insisted that Jing Yan and Cen Ting must have moved here to commit such a disgraceful act and had now fled.

Their smug expressions made it seem as if their plan had already succeeded.

With both of them missing and this suspicious evidence, even those who didn't believe it before began to entertain doubts.

Madam Xie's face was not good, until she saw Ji Fei and Qin Xian appear in the hall.

At the same time, the Cen family's call finally went through.

As soon as it connected, Cen Ting's calm and cool voice came through. "Dad, what's going on? Why did you call so many times?"
