Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

"I think I can explain it."

"you shut up!"

Jin Yao pointed at Jiang Lu angrily. Seeing this, the latter had no choice but to shut up and lower his head obediently.

At this moment, Jiang Lu was like a suspect who had just been caught in a crackdown on prostitution. He was squatting in a corner with his hands tied to the radiator, completely deprived of his freedom of movement.

During the period when Jin Yao fainted due to mental damage caused by the damage of "Absolute Truth", the sickle and the performer controlled him like this.

To be honest, they didn't want to help outsiders deal with their own brothers. After all, they were fellow villagers who came from the same place and were in trouble. Who wouldn't want Jiang Lu to be safe?
But then again, after what he just said, even the two of them found it hard to tell who was their family member for a moment.

There should be a limit to helping relatives and not helping others, right?

Obviously, Jiang Lu has exceeded this limit.

At this time, if they continued to stand by Jiang Lu, it would not only be morally wrong, but it would also be hard to justify it from a conscience perspective.

However, Sickle still had feelings for the old times, so he came up with an idea. He said that he should imitate Lian Po who came to ask for forgiveness by carrying a thorn stick on his back, and let Jiang Lu tie him up and apologize properly later.

It's a pity that although the idea was good, Jin Yao was not very cooperative. Perhaps she was disappointed with Jiang Lu. After waking up, she didn't even give him a chance to speak. Instead, she kept trying to get words out of Hong Yi.

"Tell me, what's going on!"

Facing Jin Yao's questioning, Hong Yi, knowing that she was actually born from the powerful Queen Mother of the West, couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Although she repeatedly told herself that they were in a free love relationship and everything was the choice of fate, Hong Yi still felt inexplicably guilty when she thought about the process of free love.

"We actually..." She spoke slowly, but her eyes involuntarily drifted towards the young man who was already standing at attention.

"Don't look at him, just talk about your own."

"What he said must be true." Hong Yi admitted it.

But some of her wording caused Jin Yao's dissatisfaction: "Yes means yes, what do you mean by should be?"

"That's right. How do I put it?"

Hong Yi thought about it and said seriously:
"It's true that we fell in love at first sight, but what he said was actually a bit exaggerated. You may not know that he obtained a treasure from my employer's casino yesterday. Something went wrong while he was refining it, causing him to say some uncontrollably things that could hurt others."

"You fell in love at first sight, so what am I?" Jin Yao glared at Jiang Lu fiercely.

Jiang Lu's words suddenly turned into another sentence uncontrollably: "You are lucky?"

"Fuck you!" The performer couldn't stand it anymore and covered his mouth with his hand.

Just as Jin Yao was shocked, Hong Yi said at the right time: "You see, he just can't control himself and say such hurtful words. It's as if there is an evil person in his mind who knows everything he knows and knows how to use this information to hurt the hearts of those around him."

At this point, Hong Yi paused for a moment, smiled helplessly and said, "I have also suffered the same kind of harm from him, but I know that this was not his intention, so I accepted it calmly and forgave him."

"Have you been treated like this by him?" Jin Yao was stunned.

As the eternal law goes, the best way to comfort someone is not to tell him to move on, but to tell him that you are worse off than he is.

Hearing that the other party had also suffered such a blow, she suddenly felt a lot better.

However, although her anger subsided a little after hearing Hong Yi's explanation, she still felt a little unhappy in her heart, because what Hong Yi said now made her feel particularly harsh.

If she can accept it but I can't, doesn't that mean I'm narrow-minded?
But who can accept such a thing?

When she heard the key words, she couldn't help but think of what Jiang Lu said last night that he was refining a treasure. In this way, the cause and effect matched up, and she couldn't find any fault with it.

But what she didn't realize was that the explanation she heard was not entirely correct.

This is a setting that Hong Yi made up in his mind.

In fact, Jiang Lu did tell her that he would uncontrollably speak the truth that would hurt others, but perhaps because of the filter, Hong Yi's understanding was slightly biased.

She understood the truth that hurt others as two separate parts, separating it into the hurtful truth and the truth.

In her opinion, this is based on the truth, with the addition of factors that make people feel uncomfortable.

For example: You are fat and I have a physical aversion to you.

This is the truth that is sad to hear, but Hong Yi took "you are fat" as the truth and regarded "I am physically disgusted by you" as an uncontrollable added factor.

And she never thought about it from beginning to end. In fact, the second half of the sentence is also true.

Jiang Lu, who was tortured to the radiator, noticed this keenly at this moment.

All we can say is that it’s a good thing that the performer covered his mouth tightly, otherwise he might have uncontrollably corrected Hong Yi’s cognitive bias, and then made the current situation develop in a worse direction.

This misunderstanding helped Jiang Lu invisibly.

Because Jin Yao could not see any deception in Hong Yi's eyes, only honesty and straightforwardness, so she also believed the truth after this artistic processing.

Therefore, her dissatisfaction changed from the serious personality problem that Jiang Lu not only cheated on her behind her back, but also shamelessly asked her to learn from him, as if she was a very lowly person, to a simple matter of principle such as cheating.

"Okay, then I can now ignore his insults to me." Jin Yao took a deep breath: "But it is an indisputable fact that you two are mixed up, right?"

"Regarding this aspect." Hong Yi sighed: "I can only say that this is all fate."

"What a trick of fate." Jin Yao couldn't help but sneer: "So you are innocent? Didn't you just say that it was love at first sight? Love at first sight is not just a one-person thing, so you just let yourself off the hook like that?"

"Although I don't want to say this, the fact is that I only knew about your existence afterwards." Hong Yi explained helplessly.

Jin Yao frowned: "So you didn't intervene knowingly?"

"Ah."

Hearing the affirmative answer, Jin Yao looked at Jiang Lu silently.

The sickle and the performer who were eating the melon with gusto on the side were also surprised.

I thought Hong Yi was the third party who knew the truth, but I didn't expect that she was also a victim. She was being treated as a third party.

"In this case, the main responsibility still lies with Jiang Bao."

The performer muttered something under his breath. Scythe nodded in approval: "No problem."

"What a mess!" The performer shook his head. "It seems I have to draw a clear line between myself and him when I return."

Scythe didn't say anything else, but his heavy sigh was enough to tell how disappointed he was with Jiang Lu.

Realizing that he had become the target of public criticism, Jiang Lu felt a pang of sadness in his heart and lowered his head in regret.

However, his regret was not for his own mess, but for why he could not resist the temptation and force his mouth to merge?
Not only is this bastard's mouth hard, but his waist is also like a cotton trouser, and all the words come out of his mouth.

Obviously, I could handle everything well, and everyone could live in peace without knowing anything, so how did it turn out like this?

"So, now that you know, what are you going to do?"

Jin Yao asked coldly.

Hong Yi did not hesitate: "Now that things have come to this, I will certainly not give up on him."

"But I'm not the kind of person who will give up something that originally belongs to me." Jin Yao also declared her sovereignty and determination to the other party: "It's not my style to help others achieve their goals. What's mine is mine after all. If it's not mine, I will take it away if I like it."

"I understand." Hong Yi nodded calmly: "I know your identity and your character, but even so, I still want to give it a try."

Jin Yao raised an eyebrow: "Oh? He really told you everything. After knowing who I am, instead of running away, he is eager to try? It's really interesting."

"Since I have made this choice, I will not back down." Hong Yi rarely showed her strong and stubborn side, and did not lower her head at all just because the other party was the Queen Mother of the West.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Jiang Lu raised his head with a bright light shining in his eyes.

His reaction confused the sickle and the performer.

Normally, anyone who encounters this kind of thing would feel a headache, right?
But looking at his expression, it seemed that he not only did not find the current situation difficult, but was actually looking forward to it.

"What's going on? Don't you think it's chaotic enough?" The performer was confused.

"Hmm! Hmm!" Jiang Lu struggled to speak.

The performer hesitated for a moment, then released his hand that was covering his mouth.

Then he heard words that were difficult to understand.

"It's so cold, when will men stand up?" Jiang Lu scolded: "You turtle men only know how to fight among yourselves for women. When you see women fighting for men, you get angry and even point the spearhead at your own commander. Humph, you are just a rat with a gun in its lair. I am so cold!"

The performer was stunned: "Didn't you cheat on me?"

But Scythe seemed to have received some kind of revelation and gently pressed his shoulder: "No, I think I understand."

"What do you unserstand?"

"This can't be called cheating. Everyone has the right to choose. You can't stop him from running towards someone better, right?"

actor actress:"?"

Jiang Lu smiled with relief: "You are quite perceptive."

While the three of them were whispering, Jin Yao and Hong Yi finally discussed and came up with a charter.

They decided to play fair.

Although Hong Yi has already received Jiang Lu's promise, and although Jin Yao has had an unclear relationship with Jiang Lu for a long time, but now that things have come to this, they have decided to take a step back and start fighting again for Jiang Lu's ownership.

Although they were still angry about Kang Ryul's bad words and deeds, they also understood their true hearts.

For Jin Yao, she had had special feelings for Jiang Lu from the very beginning entirely because of the Queen Mother of the West. In a sense, she cared more about seeking recognition through Jiang Lu and competing with the Queen Mother of the West than the person himself. She was completely competing with herself.

But after Hong Yi appeared, she discovered that she no longer just regarded Jiang Lu as a yardstick, but really had deep feelings for him. At least at the moment when she learned that she might lose him, the first thing she thought of was not that she lost to the Queen Mother of the West, but what she would do without Jiang Lu.

For Hong Yi, at first she just wanted to curry favor with Jiang Lu because he was a big shot who was above Dong Wanggong. Objectively speaking, she had the indisputable intention of currying favor with him. After making love, because of a small episode, she got Jiang Lu's sincerity and promise, and this feeling gradually turned into being flattered and touched. But until this time, it could not be considered true love.

Until the confrontation with Jin Yao, when she was facing the Queen Mother of the West, who was of the same status as her and whom she could not afford to offend, she could have protected herself and withdrawn voluntarily, but she still chose to face the challenge. Only then did she finally realize that Jiang Lu was not someone who would not matter to her, but the person for whom she could give everything.

After thinking this through, they were both extremely confident in their feelings and did not think they would lose to each other, so they decided to have this battle between women.

"Haha, now that we have decided, don't even think about escaping after your employer and we meet up. If you leave before the winner is decided, I will find you after I take back everything that belongs to me and make you admit your defeat in person."

Jin Yao started to speak harshly.

Hong Yi smiled and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I will go to Kunlun Mountain with you, and I will witness your failure with my own eyes."

"Okay, okay, you are really confident and courageous." Jin Yao was delighted: "I am beginning to like you a little bit."

"I admire your dominance and toughness." Hong Yi glanced at Jiang Lu and said, "No wonder he was so easily taken advantage of by you. In a way, I am the lucky one."

Such a development was completely unexpected for Scythe and the performers.

"I... I don't quite understand." For some reason, the performer felt that the current situation made him instinctively want to escape.

Scythe pondered for a moment: "If you change your perspective and regard this as two men deliberately showing off their personal charm in order to win the hearts of their loved ones? After all, there is nothing better than praising your opponent to show your generosity, right?"

After hearing what he said, the performer suddenly realized: "I think I can understand it again."

The two of them simultaneously looked down at Jiang Lu, who was smiling as brightly as a flower.

"Great! But they are all so attractive, it's really hard for me to choose. I'm really looking forward to how they will compete in front of me! Hehe."

"Then." Jin Yao crossed her hands in front of her chest, crossed her legs and leaned against the back of the sofa: "I am preparing to build my foundation now. Are you willing to help us, if you understand?"

"What a coincidence." Hong Yi also sat up straight, with his chest held high and not showing any fear: "When I was at the mountain gate, I always helped my junior brothers and sisters build their foundations. From ordinary foundation building to heavenly foundation building, there is nothing I am not familiar with. No matter what foundation building materials, they can be used to the greatest extent in my hands. I think I should be able to help you a lot."

"Oh my, you are really so shameless."

Jin Yao snapped her fingers at the performer without even turning her head: "Come on, open the box that was just brought in and see what materials are inside."

The dispute has already begun. (End of this chapter)
