Chapter 183 - 178: Just What I Wanted! (Four Updates)
CHAPTER 183: CHAPTER 178: JUST WHAT I WANTED! (FOUR UPDATES)
"Exactly what I wanted!" Tong Airui laughed as he walked out the door.
"Was the call from Uncle because we did something wrong?" You Jia grabbed the remote and turned the music down.
Monica raised her hand to dismiss the waiter. Once the waiter left, she spoke softly, "Don’t worry, I’ve already found someone to take the fall."
"I’ve made arrangements too. Should we let my fourth brother know?"
Monica shook her head. "The fourth brother’s mind works faster than ours. He’s on the phone right now. If we tell him now, won’t it just add to his troubles?"
Mi Chenshuo glanced at the two of them, then hurriedly walked out.
Outside, Tong Airui was answering a call from Mai Shenglun, his face serious.
"Uncle, we’ve been at the Royal Hotel the whole time. If you don’t believe me, you can send someone to check. And about Han Yirou—when she left our house, she showed no signs of discomfort at all. How could this be pinned on my third brother? Huh! We haven’t been apart from my third brother the whole evening... What? Oh, Yi Luowa’s been with me the whole time too. Want to talk to her? That Yi Lingfei and her mom, they’re both full of nonsense. Do you believe her or me?"
Tong Airui glanced at Mi Chenshuo, who was approaching, and made a shushing motion.
"The car? There were so many of us out today, so we used a minibus. You say the surveillance footage shows my third brother’s car? That’s impossible!" Tong Airui furrowed his brow slightly. "Either my third brother’s car was stolen or someone cloned the plates. Don’t believe me? Go check. Shall I ask my third brother? But I’m guessing he doesn’t know what happened either, because we’ve been together the whole time."
Mi Chenshuo watched as Tong Airui rattled off nonsense and couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"Third brother, call home and check if the car is there," Tong Airui said loudly over the phone.
Mi Chenshuo pulled out his phone and glanced at Tong Airui, who mouthed: "Not there." He quickly said, "It’s not there."
"Uncle, something’s happened. My third brother’s car isn’t there, and the driver’s been injured. I think someone is trying to frame my third brother. Listen, let me send someone to investigate. As soon as I find anything, I’ll let you know immediately."
Mai Shenglun was left bewildered by the onslaught of information and had no clue what to think. He hastily hung up the phone.
Tong Airui smirked lightly. "Let’s have a meeting and get our stories straight."
Yuan Hang stood guard at the door, while Tong Airui and Mi Chenshuo went into the private room.
As soon as Tong Airui entered, his expression was serious. "Han Yirou had a miscarriage. Yi Lingfei got five stitches in her head. And then the police found third brother’s car on the surveillance footage. Luckily, when third brother came over, he was in Aino’s car, and his driver drove the other car back."
"Han Yirou had a miscarriage?" Yi Luowa wrinkled her little face and looked at Mi Chenshuo.
Mi Chenshuo raised an eyebrow slightly. "Don’t look at me. It wasn’t me."
Tong Airui said in a low voice, "Doesn’t matter who did it. Yi Lingfei insisted Yi Luowa is her only enemy. Plus, the person who hit her has a body type very similar to Luowa. And Han Yirou said that the only person who’d want her to miscarry, other than third brother, is no one else."
"You Jia and I already found people to deal with this. They’ll take the blame for us."
Tong Airui shook his head. "No need for our own people to take the fall. Third brother, have someone lightly injure your driver, just some scrapes and bruises. I’ll handle the rest. Let’s pin this on those Delta guys..."
Tong Airui outlined his plan briefly. Yi Luowa looked at him intently. She’d met manipulative people before, but someone as cunning as him—this was a first! Still, she didn’t mind one bit. In fact, she liked him even more for it because Yi Luowa called that being smart!
With the plan set, they quickly left the Royal Hotel. As they stepped outside, there really was a minibus parked by the door.
"Have to give it to the fourth brother—he never fails. He comes up with the perfect plan in the shortest amount of time, and then executes it flawlessly," Monica remarked as she climbed into the bus, deeply impressed.
Tong Airui smiled and pulled out his phone.
Seeing him about to give the next set of orders, no one said a word. By the time the bus arrived at the villa, he had nearly wrapped up all his arrangements. Only then did everyone silently exit the vehicle and tiptoe into the house.
The living room was empty. Xiaoyudian let out a sigh of relief. "Mom said to give the two big guest rooms on the fourth floor to Luowa and Connie. Should I take them upstairs now?"
Xiaoyudian asked this to Tong Airui. Her mom’s orders had to be carried out, but she also needed to consider her brother’s feelings. She’d heard that the two had slept on the same bed at the hospital. If they were going to be split up now, she thought it best to get her brother’s opinion first.
"Wife, you and my sister head up first. I’ve got some things to handle," Tong Airui readily agreed, though for some reason, his waist kept twisting and turning.
Tong Aino suddenly moved behind Tong Airui and spotted a pale, delicate little hand fiercely pinching her big brother’s waist.
"Heh heh..." Yi Luowa chuckled awkwardly and withdrew her hand. "Fourth brother said it was ticklish, so I was helping him scratch."
"Keep scratching!" Tong Aino teased with a laugh.
Yi Luowa rolled her eyes at Tong Aino and grabbed Connie’s hand. "Connie, let’s go upstairs."
Tong Aino glanced at the mask in Connie’s hand and frowned. "Hide the mask. Don’t cause any trouble!"
