Tyrant Meets Paranoid [Quick Transmigration] – Chapter 235

Chapter 235- Cold Indifferent Loyal Dog VS. Playful Ghost King (30) END

Qi Hao could be considered as naturally intelligent. With guidance from Mr. Qi, he no longer lived aimlessly. During this period, he achieved many significant accomplishments, and everyone knew that Mr. Qi valued him.

Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi knew that if things continued in this direction, the Qi family would eventually fall into Qi Hao’s hands. Of course, this was an outcome they were happy to see.

The celebration banquet this time was grand. Although Yin Tianyi had become the top scorer in the college entrance exam and had a bright future ahead, he didn’t have much background, so logically, there shouldn’t have been many high-profile attendees at his celebration banquet.

However, the fact that Mr. Qi personally hosted the celebration made a difference.

The Qi family was an old-fashioned prestigious family, and Mr. Qi had always kept a low profile. It was unprecedented to see him hold someone in such high regard, so naturally, many people from high society rushed over.

They didn’t dare to underestimate Yin Tianyi and intended to see for themselves if this young man truly had exceptional qualities. If so, making connections with him would be a good thing.

However, what surprised Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi at the celebration banquet was that Yuan Hongshen also attended. Although Yuan Hongshen was considered a junior to Mr. Qi and it wasn’t uncommon for him to attend an event hosted by him, what others didn’t know was that he was Yin Tianyi’s troublemaker. But everyone knew that the Qi family and the Yuan family had never gotten along well in the business world, and the relationship between the two families had always been strained. So when they learned that Yuan Hongshen had come, it attracted the attention of many.

Today, Yuan Hongshen brought his son, Yuan Cheng, who was two years younger than Yin Tianyi and was still a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth. With a handsome appearance and a seemingly obedient demeanor, there was a hint of righteousness between his eyebrows.

Mu Jin looked at Yuan Cheng, who was standing quietly by the side without engaging in conversations, and nodded. Although his father was not a good person, Yuan Cheng had been well protected. He was even overly naive, so was this the rumored “bad bamboo yielding good shoots“?

Yin Tianyi couldn’t help but feel a bit conflicted when he saw Yuan Cheng. After all, the two had been good brothers in their previous lives. Although his father was a scoundrel, it couldn’t be denied that Yuan Cheng had always treated him sincerely over the years, and he also didn’t know about the things Yuan Hongshen had done.

Yin Tianyi had always been clear about his likes and dislikes, so even though he hated Yuan Hongshen, he had never blamed Yuan Cheng. However, with the complications between their fathers from the previous generation, even though the two had been brothers in their previous lives, Yin Tianyi felt that perhaps it would be better for them to be strangers in this life.

Just as Yin Tianyi sighed inwardly, a pair of slender arms wrapped around his waist. When Yin Tianyi turned his head, he saw Mu Jin looking at him with a pitiful expression, whispering softly in his ear, “Master, why have you been staring at others? I’ll get jealous, you know!”

It had to be said that the person beside him had a melodious voice, delicate and charming features, and every smile and frown was full of charm. Of course, it would be even better if there weren’t cream and pastry crumbs around his mouth.

Seeing Mu Jin like this, Yin Tianyi couldn’t help but smile. Taking out the handkerchief from his pocket, he gently wiped off the cream from the corner of Mu Jin’s mouth.

Mu Jin knew well about his appearance, but he just didn’t want his lover to feel down. Seeing the attention back on him, Mu Jin also smiled broadly. Looking into Yin Tianyi’s sparkling eyes and then giving a smug glance at Yuan Cheng.

Seeing Mu Jin’s seemingly jealous and provocative behavior, Yin Tianyi’s mood instantly improved. Any lingering effects from seeing Yuan Hongshen and Yuan Cheng earlier had disappeared. Indeed, this demon by his side was his treasure.

However, while they were sweetly interacting, Yuan Hongshen, who was watching them from the corner, had already darkened his expression. Over the past six months, the Yuan family had suffered greatly. He had tried everything to turn the tide, but to no avail.

Originally planning to set a trap to lure the ghost cultivator beside Yin Tianyi, intending for the bronze cauldron artifact to absorb his cultivation, Yuan Hongshen found himself in a setback. His bronze cauldron disappeared, and those he sent out either died or were injured, with no one remembering what happened that day.

The Qi family and Yin Tianyi had been targeting the Yuan family all along, putting them at a disadvantage. Yuan Hongshen resented this, viewing Mu Jin and Yin Tianyi as his archenemies.

Yuan Hongshen didn’t know Mu Jin; Mu Jin’s appearance had nothing to do with ghosts in his eyes. He simply saw Mu Jin as a beautiful young man attached to Yin Tianyi, thinking he was just currying favor with Yin Tianyi and looking down on him.

Although people around them hailed them as two masters, most of the time it was Yin Tianyi who made the moves, with Mu Jin by his side. So many people didn’t realize that Mu Jin was actually more capable than Yin Tianyi, let alone Yuan Hongshen, who had never met them.

He certainly believed the bronze cauldron’s claim that there was a thousand-year-old ghost cultivator beside Yin Tianyi, but he also didn’t want to give up on revenge. He believed that if it weren’t for Yin Tianyi, he wouldn’t have fallen to this point, and the decline of the Yuan family was all because of Yin Tianyi.

Today, at the venue for their banquet, he had already arranged for many evil-averting items outside, thinking that the ghost cultivator would not follow them here.

So, he believed that only Yin Tianyi and his little lover would be present at the venue. In his eyes, Mu Jin was just a beautiful youth living off Yin Tianyi, so he naturally wouldn’t be wary of him.

Yuan Hongshen found it laughable that Yin Tianyi still indulged in cozying up with his little lover at this celebration. He wanted to see what kind of storm Yin Tianyi could stir up without the assistance of that ghost cultivator.

He wondered how the other guests would react when they found out that Yin Tianyi, praised by Mr. Qi as a promising young man, turned out to be a murderer.

Little did he know that his so-called evil-averting items were nothing but child’s play to Mu Jin once the bronze cauldron’s protection was gone.

So when the celebration was in full swing, suddenly a waiter shouted in horror, pointing at Yin Tianyi and exclaimed, “Murderer! How can this murderer be here?”

Hearing someone mentioning a murderer, the scene became somewhat chaotic for a moment. However, when they saw that the waiter was actually pointing at Yin Tianyi, they felt confused.

Because this young man was clearly the protagonist of this celebration, always praised by Mr. Qi, and many people knew he was actually a master of Feng Shui, helping many people with their Feng Shui and home arrangements.

But seeing the waiter looking so terrified in front of Yin Tianyi, they all became suspicious.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Qi Hao immediately rebuked the waiter upon hearing his words. Today was the celebration of his big brother’s child, personally arranged by their grandfather. Yet, someone was spreading rumors here, how could Qi Hao not be angry?

But the person didn’t stop even after hearing Qi Hao’s words, instead, he loudly proclaimed. He said he used to live in the same village as Yin Tianyi.

He also said he witnessed Yin Tianyi killing the Wang couple that night, but was too scared at the time and left the village. But he always remembered this incident, which had become a nightmare for him over the years.

At that time, the Wang couple died very tragically, so the man fabricated that Yin Tianyi’s methods were extremely cruel. He saw the state of the two’s death and was afraid of Yin Tianyi’s retaliation, so he didn’t tell the truth but ran away. Seeing the murderer again made him lose control.

Upon hearing the man’s words, especially seeing his resolute manner, many people in the room began to look at Yin Tianyi with some doubt in their eyes.

Of course, Mr. Qi and Qi Hao couldn’t just stand by and watch Yin Tianyi being slandered. Qi Hao gestured for the people below to take away this nonsense-spreading guy, and Mr. Qi also intended to temporarily suppress this matter.

Who knew that at this moment, Yuan Hongshen stood up and said to Mr. Qi, “This is not a trivial matter. We can understand why you, Mr. Qi, have always favored Yin Tianyi. But you can’t just let him be accused of being a murderer for no reason. It’s better to call the police to investigate and clarify.”

Yuan Hongshen’s words were lofty, and when Mu Jin heard Yuan Hongshen’s words, he couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. And at this moment, sirens began to sound around the villa.

Seeing this, Yuan Hongshen couldn’t help but reveal a triumphant smile on his face. Many reporters had already been lurking around the villa. Just thinking that he could see Yin Tianyi being taken away by the police today, Yuan Hongshen felt extremely satisfied.

But before he could be happy, the police who broke into the villa actually arrested him.

Yuan Hongshen looked at the police in front of him who had handcuffed him and hurriedly explained, “Comrades, you’ve got the wrong person. The murderer who needs to be taken away is over there, the one called Yin Tianyi. Why are you arresting me?”

The person who had previously accused Yin Tianyi also dared to run over to echo Yuan Hongshen’s words.

The leading police officer frowned upon hearing Yuan Hongshen’s words and said impatiently, “What nonsense, it’s clearly you. Aren’t you Yuan Hongshen?”

“Twenty years ago, you conspired to kill the Wang couple. We’ve found sufficient evidence for this matter. And there are also issues with the Yuan family’s falsification of accounts and commercial fraud, which we are also investigating.”

“As for your attempt to frame the province’s high school exam champion Yin Tianyi, we received reports long ago. Today is just the right time to address these matters together. You just wait to face the consequences of the law.”

As soon as the policeman finished speaking, his gaze turned sharply towards the waiter who had just slandered Yin Tianyi. Upon hearing the policeman’s words and seeing Yuan Hongshen’s current situation, the man knew that all the benefits promised to him by Yuan Hongshen must have disappeared.

He immediately knelt down with weak legs and shouted loudly, saying that all this was Yuan Hongshen bribing him.
