Chapter 491 Cornered (1)
Liao Yuan\'s blood ran cold as Xinyi exposed him. He could stare at her, aghast and astounded. A loud, drumming sound ran in his ears.
"I don\'t get it, Xinyi. You are misunderstanding things."
Her nostrils flared. "Sure, I am misunderstanding the situation just like how I always believed that you respect my feelings are limited to only friendship towards you. I rejected you once four years back, and then I said the same thing during the Annual Business Summit. There can be nothing between us. Even if I couldn\'t return your feelings, I thought we could be good friends, but you proved me wrong."
"Xinyi-"
She cut him off. "At every step of the way, you pretended to be at my side. But behind my back, you were viciously planning to separate Zhiyuan and me! Do you think I didn\'t understand what you were doing?"
He narrowed his eyes.
"Ever since Keung took over the Han Corps and Zhiyuan and I started our new company, you were always provoking me against him. Always trying to convince me that I was living a miserable life with him. But all you wanted was me to leave his side once and for all! Isn\'t it right, Yuan?"
Liao Yuan felt a wave of panic rush inside him.
How could she know all this?
She chuckled. "Are you wondering how I know all this? You are the one who secretly supported Keung to get the shares from the Han Corps, right?"
He stiffened.
"It\'s because the shareholders saw you as his backing and were greedy to touch Liao Corps\' profits that they agreed to sign the share transfer papers. I could forgive you for anything but not how you threatened my husband and son\'s life over and over again!"
"Calm down, Xinyi. Let\'s talk this out," he raised his palm.
Xinyi angrily removed the seatbelt and stepped out of the car. Shocked, he quickly came out too.
"Xinyi!" He blocked her way and grabbed her arm. "It\'s not what you think! You are wrong! I plotted nothing against Zhiyuan!"
She smiled. "Will you say this even when I say that Keung admitted it was you who helped him?"
He froze.
"You never expected him to rat you out, right? But he had no choice when you were using him for your plans too. You were not only blaming Zhiyuan but also throwing mud at Keung for trying to wreck the family. Imagine his shock. You were supposed to be on his side, but you always filled my ears against him. How he is making everything miserable, how he is using his power to take us down and how he will ruin Han Corps…"
The hell…How dare he!?
From a distance, another car came and stopped just behind Liao Yuan\'s car. Keung stepped out, making Liao Yuan stiffen.
What is he doing here? No…did he fucking change sides!?
Keung clenched his fist and faced him, dark anger swirling in his black eyes.
"Liao Yuan. When you approached me back abroad that you will help me in getting back to the Han family, do you remember what I had said?"
He squinted his gaze.
"I said I wanted my family\'s recognition which I had lost. I might face their anger when they would come to know how I stole the shares. But you would help me compensate for it by helping me regain their trust. But instead of that, you were painting me even more of a villain in everyone\'s eyes," he chuckled. "Grandpa is right. Until I don\'t understand who my friends and enemies are, I don\'t deserve to lead the company. First, my mom led me astray because of her greed. I trusted you because you showed me hope. But it turns out you were also just using me too."
He sneered. "When we talked last time, you told me that I made the right decision with the announcement. But to Xinyi, you say that I am only getting her more and more in danger. I cannot believe you would be a snake, Liao Yuan."
Liao Yuan gritted his teeth. "What nonsense are you spouting, Keung? When did I ever help you? I have got nothing to do with you! Xinyi, I don\'t know what the heck he is planning, but he is framing me!"
Xinyi kept quiet.
"Liao Yuan, you can give up on defending yourself because we already knew from a long time that you were pulling the strings for Keung."
He froze.
"It was after Zhiyuan\'s third attack that he suspected you. The only thing we really didn\'t understand was how you met Mrs. An Yueqin or why could you order her around to do the job for you? But we got that answer too. You could do that because your father had imprisoned her all this time. That\'s how you know her."
His eyes widened in horror. This was something he never even told Keung. Keung had asked him many times about how and why his aunt was working under him. But, he always shrugged him off saying that it was a coincidence meeting her in the Underworld. He never uttered a word about his father keeping An Yueqin by his side.
Xinyi gave him a cold glare. "You used her all this time to harm Zhiyuan. When Keung took over, you used his actions against him to brainwash me. Even today at the park…" she gnashed her teeth in extreme hatred. "You bribed the mob to target me, right? That\'s why you came at the right time to save me. Once again, you wanted to take the chance to convince me to leave Zhiyuan!"
Liao Yuan laughed. "Xinyi, you are making stuff up now. You cannot blatantly accuse me like this without evidence."
Keung replied to that. "If you want evidence, then I am the witness here. If you think I am framing you, then I can give a call to all the shareholders right now. I will tell them that Liao Yuan is backing off from his deal. Do you realize what reaction we will get to hear?"
