The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 359 – Net Breaks when Fish Die



Tian Huacheng looked at Yao De, who was in the main seat, and assumed that they were the ones in charge here.

He immediately said: “I was blinded by greed at the time, and since things had already gone that far, I decided to go down the dark path, continue to help him by interviewing two villagers and slinging mud at Starline Bio.”

“The sequence of events is roughly like this, and the mastermind is Yao Han.”

Tian Huacheng’s words had just fallen.

Yao Han pointed at Xiao Shun and exploded in anger: “Do you think everyone is an idiot? Just find someone to identify me and they will believe such nonsense? Get out of here right now! The Yao family doesn’t welcome you!”

Xiao Shun shook his head disdainfully: “No tears until the coffin is seen.”

“Tian Huacheng, since he says you’re slandering him, you need to produce evidence that can convince everyone.”

Tian Huacheng was smart enough to understand what was meant.

“I have a copy of the receipt for the payment you gave me at the time, and the recording of our conversation. These can all serve as evidence, Master Yao. You should know what I do for a living, you wouldn’t think that those of us in this profession wouldn’t even have this level of precaution, would you?”

Yao Han was immediately dumbfounded, he didn’t expect Tian Huacheng to have an ace up his sleeve.

Now that the evidence is here, he couldn’t find a foothold to argue.

On the surface, he was still trying to maintain composure, but in his heart, he was suffering in silence.

He didn’t want to go to jail, he didn’t poison anyone, he was just responsible for finding someone to exaggerate the matter, but could he expose Zheng Yongzhang?

Obviously not, he was well aware of the Zheng family’s influence in Stillwater, even if he exposed Zheng Yongzhang, the Zheng family would do everything possible to protect him.

Yao Han understood Zheng Yongzhang’s character even better, if he spoke up, he might not even have a life left.

But he was unwilling to take the blame for others just like that, he had just become the head of the family, with the current assets of the Yao family, even if he didn’t do anything, it would be enough for him to squander for decades, living a life of luxury, cars and beautiful women, now everything would be gone.

“Poisoning should be a few years in prison, right?”

“Serves him right, can someone like him be a good head of the Yao family?”

“Xiao Shun, since the evidence is conclusive, let’s call the police, we the Yao family will act as if this person does not exist.”

“Uncle De, we must re-elect the head of the family, we can’t let a person who is about to go to jail be the head.”

The descendants of the Yao family have always disliked Yao Han’s smug demeanor, and at this moment they did not hesitate to kick him when he was down, saying one after another.

Suddenly Yao Han seemed to have thought of something, or was stimulated by something, he looked at Xiao Shun with a ferocious gaze, then turned his head to look at Yao De, laughing madly as if he was crazy.

“I get it, you’ve all ganged up against me, haven’t you?”

“Yao De, don’t think I don’t know about the calculations in your heart, you’re afraid I won’t save your daughter, you don’t dare to step forward, so you’ve found this outsider to gang up against me, right?”

“Do you think I’m an idiot? If it comes to it, we can all go down together, I’ll go to jail, and you won’t have a good time either.” Yao Han pointed at Yao De and said.

Yao De and his wife looked at him in astonishment, not understanding why he suddenly said this.

Tian Huacheng didn’t know the situation on the scene, but he could see that Yao Han was becoming more and more emotional, even bordering on hysterical. It made him wonder if there was some underlying secret that had not yet been revealed.

“Master Yao,” Tian Huacheng started carefully. “If you have any grievances, please state them clearly. If there has been any misunderstanding, we can try to clear it up.”

Yao Han gave a bitter laugh, his face was a picture of despair and anger. “Misunderstanding? There’s no misunderstanding, only betrayal!”

He turned to Yao De. “I’ve always thought of you as my elder, respected you, listened to you. I never questioned your motives, never thought you’d use your own family to trap me like this.”

The room went silent, everyone trying to process the gravity of Yao Han’s words. Yao De’s face paled, he looked at his wife, then at Yao Han. “Han, you’re mistaken…”

But Yao Han wasn’t listening anymore. He was caught up in his own world of betrayal and hurt. In his eyes, everyone was a potential enemy now, everyone was out to get him.

“Fine, if that’s how it is,” Yao Han said, his voice chillingly calm. “Then let’s all go down together. I did not act alone in this. I was only the face, the spokesperson. There are others who are just as guilty, if not more.”

He looked around the room, his gaze finally landing on Yao De. “Don’t you agree, Uncle De?”

Yao De flinched, his face losing all color. His eyes met Yao Han’s, and in that moment, everyone in the room understood the unsaid truth.

There was more to this than met the eye. And Yao Han was no longer willing to shoulder the blame alone.

Therefore, it was no surprise that Yao Han misunderstood when he kept looking at Yao De while recounting the poisoning incident earlier. How could Yao Han not understand the concerns of Yao De and his wife? They feared that once Yao Han became the head of the household, he might renege on his promises. After all, having Yao Han kneel and apologize to Yao Jianguo’s family was an enormous humiliation for him.

Of course, that was exactly what Yao Han thought. Once he secured the position of the head of the household, even if he didn’t save Yao Xiaoyu, Yao De and his wife could not do anything to him. Yao Han was also well aware that Yao De did not genuinely want him to become the head of the family. Because only if Yao De himself became the head of the household could he fully mobilize resources, even kneel down and apologize to Yao Jianguo’s family to save Yao Xiaoyu.

But now, holding the weak point of Yao De and his wife, they dared not act on their own, so they sought the help of Xiao Shun to topple him, which was beneficial to both Yao De and Xiao Shun.

“Yao Han, I knew nothing about this beforehand, don’t talk nonsense,” Yao De hastily stood up and admonished.

Except for Yao Han and Yao De, everyone else was utterly ignorant of the hidden implications and looked puzzled. Wasn’t it just said that Yao Han poisoned and framed Starline Bio? Why did Yao Han and Yao De suddenly start fighting? And Yao De just now, had just put him in the position of head of the family, which was truly baffling to all the Yao descendants. Xiao Shun didn’t understand what was going on either.

“Old fox, what’s the matter? Panicking now? I tell you, even if I go to jail, I’ll drag you down with me!” Yao Han sneered and took out his phone from his pocket, waving it at everyone.

“Do you want to see how Yao De and Li Chunlian poisoned my grandfather? The previous head of the family, Yao De’s own father!”

“Yao Han, have you gone mad?!” Li Chunlian screamed sharply, immediately lunging over intending to snatch the phone from his hand. Yao Han violently flung his hand, throwing her off balance, and she immediately fell to the ground.

“Yao Han, what on earth are you trying to do? Stop messing around!” Yao De also hurriedly said.

“See? They’re panicking,” Yao Han said with a despairing laugh, then looked at Yao De and asked, “Scared now? Too late!”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

He quickly unlocked his phone, and the conversation between Yao De, his wife, and Yao Zhenshu that night immediately echoed from the device. Without watching the video, one could roughly guess what had happened.

Xiao Shun probably understood what was going on now; he hadn’t expected the drama today to be this intense. Yao Han, like a madman, his eyes bloodshot, held his phone, placing the screen in front of each Yao family member for them to see.

This was like a heavy bomb exploding in the hearts of the Yao descendants. Patricide, such a heinous act they might have only seen in some literary works or TV dramas. They couldn’t believe, nor did they dare to believe, that such a monstrous act was happening in their family, right before their eyes, the shock was indescribable.

Yao De slumped in his chair, his soul seemingly shattered, regretful, frustrated, disheartened, he knew, it was all over. Not only could he not save his daughter, but he and Li Chunlian would also be implicated.

Yao Jianguo sat there expressionlessly, his emotions unreadable, his thoughts unknown.

“How could they do such a beastly thing… Call the police! Call the police!” The elderly man trembled with rage, cursing loudly.

Xiao Shun quickly walked up to Yao Han, swiftly pressing a point on his neck. Yao Han was caught off guard and felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, his body numb, and he collapsed to the ground.

Xiao Shun snatched the phone from his hand and handed it to a member of the Yao family nearby.

“You report your police, I’ll take this man away, I will personally deliver him to the police station later.”

Then to Duan Jia, he said, “Take them and leave first.”

Duan Jia agreed, hoisted Tian Huacheng under one arm, and with the other, supported Yao Han as they walked outside.
