Chapter 748 A Twist of Fate
"The evidence is all here, what else do you have to explain?" Wei Changzhe frowned.
Gu Junjie took a breath and quickly said, "Second Master Wei, listen to me. As far as I know, Chen Xuan has a very good relationship with Master Bai."
Wei Changzhe was also aware of Chen Xuan's good relationship with Master Bai. Master Bai had publicly supported Chen Xuan on several occasions, and it was already widely rumored.
Master Bai's subordinates were indeed at the southern wharf. This was a fact.
"So what?"
"These people were all found by Chen Xuan to frame me. Second Master Wei, please don't believe him!" Gu Junjie said urgently.
Wei Changzhe didn't know if this was true, but judging by the current situation, it did seem somewhat reasonable.
"Second Master Wei, you must investigate thoroughly!"
Chen Xuan was amused to the point of anger.
He hadn't expected Gu Junjie to lie with a straight face.
However, it was understandable. If Gu Junjie were exposed now, everyone would want him dead, and this was his only chance.
Wei Changzhe frowned and pondered. He looked at Chen Xuan: "Chen Xuan, how do you explain this matter?!"
Chen Xuan knitted his brows. kAnshu伍.ξà
It was indeed difficult for him to explain this matter. Wei Linlin and the housekeeper had been knocked unconscious at the time, and now Chen Xuan knew the kidnappers, making it impossible for him to clear his name.
"Chen Xuan, why aren't you speaking?!"
Seeing this, Gu Junjie's heart surged with joy, and he shouted excitedly.
Gu Chengtian also joined in the taunting: "Second Master Wei, do you see? This kid doesn't know how to explain, he's tacitly admitting it!"
Wei Changzhe, worthy of being called Second Master Wei, his gaze towards Chen Xuan changed after hearing this.
Su Yunxi quickly said, "Uncle Wei, Linlin was saved by Chen Xuan. If it weren't for Chen Xuan, Linlin wouldn't have returned safely. How could he have kidnapped Wei Linlin?"
This time, Su Yunxi stood unequivocally on Chen Xuan's side.
She believed Chen Xuan would not do such a thing.
"You're quite something, Su family. Even now you're still defending your live-in son-in-law. Can't you, Su Yunxi, find a man?" Gu Junjie said contemptuously.
Gu Chengtian glanced at Wei Changzhe: "Second Master Wei, I think Chen Xuan is clearly supported by the Su family!"
Provoked by this, Wei Changzhe became enraged: "Let me tell you, Su Yunxi, if you can't clarify this today, none of you will leave!"
The forces lurking nearby also rushed over, surrounding Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi. kanδん
"Chen Xuan, I'll ask you one more time, what else do you have to explain?"
"I, Chen Xuan, walk upright and sit properly. I have nothing to explain!"
Chen Xuan looked at the approaching forces with a blank expression, completely unfazed.
"Well said, 'walk upright and sit properly'! Tie them all up!"
Wei Changzhe waved his hand, and a group of his subordinates rushed forward.
But at this moment, a hoarse and weak voice rang out: "I believe Sister Yunxi and Chen Xuan!"
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice. Unbeknownst to them, Wei Linlin, who had been unconscious earlier, walked over from nearby, her face pale.
"Linlin, quickly go back and rest. Don't get involved in this matter. I'll handle it!" Wei Changzhe quickly supported Wei Linlin.
Wei Linlin said, "Uncle, Sister Yunxi and Chen Xuan have been very good to me. I ran away from home because I skipped school. I believe Sister Yunxi and Chen Xuan would not do such a thing."
"Linlin, you're still too young."
Wei Changzhe shook his head and sighed. However, no matter how much Wei Changzhe persuaded her, Wei Linlin insisted on her opinion. She believed her intuition, and even more so, she believed in the character of Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi.
"For Linlin's sake, I can let you go, but you must behave yourselves. My Wei family will not let this matter go!" Wei Changzhe compromised.
Both the Gu family and the Li family, along with others, were filled with disappointment.
"Chen Xuan, let's go..."
Su Yunxi glanced at Chen Xuan.
"Mhm!"
In fact, Chen Xuan had truly harbored murderous intent towards this dim-witted Wei Changzhe, but for Wei Linlin's sake, he did not act. However, if Wei Changzhe continued to provoke him, he would not hold back.
With that, Chen Xuan took Su Yunxi's hand and was about to walk out.
As he passed Gu Junjie, Gu Junjie couldn't resist taunting, "Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan, you've had a stroke of luck today. If Linlin hadn't been fooled by your acting, you'd be finished."
"Oh really?"
"Yes!"
"Ah—"
Chen Xuan suddenly lifted his knee and slammed it into Gu Junjie's abdomen with a thud. Gu Junjie instantly doubled over, like a braised prawn, his face contorted in pain.
"You..."
"Say one more word, and I'll kill you!"
Gu Junjie's expression stiffened, and he was unable to utter another word.
Chen Xuan turned to leave.
Just then, he received a phone call, and a smile played on his lips.
He narrowed his eyes at Gu Junjie and said coldly, "Didn't you say I had no evidence? Wait a moment, and I'll bring the evidence for you to see!"看書溂
"Evidence? Heh, what a joke?"
Gu Junjie sneered.
Chen Xuan stroked his chin: "Gu Junjie, don't forget, you have an accomplice, don't you?"
Gu Junjie's expression stiffened.
His accomplice was Wang Chunyu. That's right, that guy was supposed to be at the unfinished building in Factory Two.
But why didn't he show up?
Could he have fled in advance?
Gu Junjie guessed correctly. Wang Chunyu, seeing the immense trouble he had stirred up, had already bought a plane ticket to fly abroad, but he was discovered by members of Xuanji Hall and was apprehended before he could board.
Just now, Chen Xuan had received a call from Yang Chaotian, so Chen Xuan asked Yang Chaotian to bring the person over.
"Don't spout nonsense."
Gu Junjie said guiltily, "Accomplice? I have no idea what you're talking about."
"You'll know in a moment!"
Before he finished speaking, a large Mercedes-Benz commercial van sped into the shipyard, driving as if it were in a hurry, even drifting around corners.
"Quick, look, a car is coming!"
A moment later, a large Mercedes-Benz commercial van stopped steadily in front of Chen Xuan and the others.
The car door opened, and several people from Xuanji Hall jumped out. Yang Chaotian personally led the team, and the others were all elites of Xuanji Hall.
"It's Yang Tangzhu of Xuanji Hall?"
"Why is he here?"
"Mr. Chen!"
Under everyone's astonished gaze, Yang Chaotian said respectfully to Chen Xuan.
Xuanji Hall was the third-largest force in the provincial capital. Even the Four Great Families were not to be underestimated. Yet, they were now so respectful to Chen Xuan?
"Where is he?" Chen Xuan asked indifferently.
"Bring the person out to Mr. Chen!" Yang Chaotian waved his hand.
A burly man, like he was carrying a small chick, brought out Wang Chunyu, who was beaten black and blue, and threw him to the ground.
Seeing Wang Chunyu, Gu Junjie's legs went weak, and he almost knelt on the ground.
"Who is this?"
"That's Old Master Gu San's illegitimate son. Wasn't he recognized by his ancestors not long ago!"
"So it's him!"
After some discussion, everyone recognized Wang Chunyu.
Yang Chaotian kicked Wang Chunyu in the stomach and said angrily, "Wang Chunyu, hurry up and confess honestly..."
Wang Chunyu was already terrified by Yang Chaotian and the others, so he spilled everything he and Gu Junjie had done.
