deadly mantra

Chapter 553 What’s more desperate than the truth
Bao Yide followed Ji Wenli's line of sight and looked over, with a cold light appearing in his eyes, and whispered:

"Don't your father-in-law recognize him?"

Ji Wenli felt that Bao Yide today was a bit shady and said unhappily:
"You have sent me away. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't be pretentious."

The muscles in Bao Yide's arms slowly tightened, as if he was restraining something. He stood up and walked over slowly.

Liao San was trembling all over, and his whimpers were full of panic. His mouth was stuffed with a ball of cloth, and he could not ask for mercy. His whole body was convulsing and panting. After being tortured for so many days, his spirit was almost on the verge of collapse.

Bao Yide approached him step by step, his tall body cast a shadow around Liao San, and raised his voice:

"Father-in-law, let me remind you. At your 60th birthday party, he sneaked into the backyard of Ji Mansion and stole many of Ji Mansion's treasures."

While speaking, he turned back and glanced at the trembling Ji Qianying:

"I just learned not long ago that although he has a history of stealing, the jewelry he was wearing that day was paid for by someone to leave Qixia City forever. Before that, Qianying should have given him the money to stop his mouth. He has lost a lot of things. However, he is like a bottomless pit, and his desires are hard to fill."

Hearing this, Ji Wenli finally got a hint of the message and sighed:
"Yide, it is inevitable for couples to have quarrels. I will take it as what happened. No matter what Qianying did wrong, you two are husband and wife. You can just resolve it behind closed doors. There is no need to bring trouble to me. You My mother-in-law has lost her appetite these past two days, and I'm having a headache. If there's nothing serious, you can just take the person down and you two can solve it."

When Ji Qianying heard this, she stood up immediately, as if she saw a glimmer of hope, and said excitedly:

"What father said is that I will go with..."

Bao Yide interrupted her:
"Does the father-in-law really not recognize him? He is the former groom of Ji Mansion, his name is Liao San, and he also has an older brother, named Liao Er. His brother is Miaozhu's groom, and he is Qianying's groom."

Ji Wenli was really stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to react.No wonder he couldn't recognize the man, he was just a groom and not worthy of being remembered by him at all.However, the name mentioned made Ji Wenli frown in displeasure:
"Yide, why are you mentioning a dead person? I told you, Ji Mansion, don't let that name appear again! Have you forgotten what I said?"

Bao Yide had expected this reaction from his father-in-law. In response, he just laughed coldly and continued:

"Miaozhu was once your pride and a treasure in your hands. Don't you want to seek justice for her?"

Ji Wenli's expression changed. He didn't want to continue this topic anymore. He stood up suddenly and said sternly: "Don't mention her name in front of me again!"

"Father-in-law!" Bao Yide raised his hand, blocked Ji Wenli's path, and said firmly, "Even if you don't want to hear Miaozhu's name, please be patient for now and continue to listen to what I have to say."

Ji Wenli:
"Yide, don't challenge my patience."

Bao Yide did not give in at all:
"Please also ask my father-in-law not to challenge my bottom line."

"What do you mean?"

Bao Yide's voice was deep and cold: "Father-in-law, you'd better sit back first."

Ji Wenli's face was gloomy, he was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked back to the main seat to sit down:

"I want to see what you want to do today!"

Bao Yide smiled bitterly.

what can he do.

When he was needed most, he did nothing.

Now, even if he did everything he should and shouldn't do, he still couldn't get her back.

Bao Yide swallowed his grief, raised his head and said:
"When I rushed back, you all told me that Miaozhu encountered robbers on the way back to Yongzhou and unfortunately fell off a cliff. But what Zheng Hongyan told me was not the case."
