Wu Jie's eyes were filled with anger, and his gaze suddenly turned icy. "You came to me for help before, and I didn't refuse. Instead, I helped you wholeheartedly."
"I sent my nephew to handle the matter personally, and what was the result?"
"You sent people to kill my nephew for your own revenge. Do you think my Wu family is powerless?"
"Do you really think we can be manipulated by you at will?"
When Liu Jing heard this, her eyes narrowed slightly. Facing Wu Jie, she didn't feel the same pressure as she did when dealing with Lin Xiao Tian.
At this moment, her gaze also held a hint of coldness.
"Vice President Wu, you've come to me in such a grand manner to demand an explanation. Do you have any evidence?"
"If there's no evidence, you can't just speak carelessly."
"You need to convince me!"
Wu Jie was so furious that smoke seemed to rise from his ears. He directly took out his phone and said angrily, "You want evidence, right?"
"I'll show you right now."
"Let you see if the person in this video is one of your lackeys."
He threw the phone over.
Liu Jing took it and carefully watched the video content. Her eyes gradually became serious.
Her gaze subconsciously flickered to Lin Xiao Tian.
Lin Xiao Tian smiled and said, "Old Wu said today we'd have a three-way meeting to sort this matter out completely."
"I also think it's very necessary, so I came with him. After all, I don't want to be blamed for something I didn't do."
"You can deny that the person in the video wasn't sent by you."
"But I doubt it will be of any use."
"Because some people have already put a label on you, and even if you want to deny it, you can't."
Liu Jing gritted her teeth. The person in the video was indeed her subordinate. If Wu Jia investigated thoroughly, they would surely find clues.
Such information couldn't be hidden from people.
After all, that subordinate had helped her with many things before.
Now, she had only one thought: how to extricate herself from this situation.
Lin Xiao Tian's lips curved into a slight arc.
"You don't need to rack your brains here. You should focus on how to appease Old Wu!"
After speaking, he turned his gaze to Wu Jie and said with a smile, "Old Wu, just ask whatever you want. She definitely won't dare to lie to you."
His words carried a clear threat, and his gaze flickered towards Liu Jing.
Liu Jing's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and her expression turned somewhat unsightly.
How could she not understand the meaning behind Lin Xiao Tian's words? Her eyes held clear hesitation.
Wu Jie snorted coldly, "Why aren't you speaking? Have you lost your tongue?"
"Besides, I don't think there's anything to say now. You two clearly came to demand an explanation. The person above didn't act according to my wishes but was instigated by someone else. Do you believe that?"
Liu Jing hesitated for a moment, then turned her gaze to Lin Xiao Tian. "I think this matter was very likely orchestrated by someone."
"You might not believe me, but this is the truth."
"I've already seen how formidable you are. If I were to send people to trouble you again, do you think I'm an idiot?"
Lin Xiao Tian just chuckled. He didn't even bother to speak.
Instead, Wu Jie couldn't help but laugh mockingly.
"You are indeed pitifully foolish. You naively say you dare not deal with him."
"But what did you do behind my back?"
"Have you forgotten what you said when you came to me?"
"If you can't remember, I can help you recall!"
Wu Jie gritted his teeth and said, "You said that as long as I could help you curb Lin Xiao Tian's development and stall him, preferably even capture him, you would give our Wu family immense benefits."
"You said all these things yourself. Now you're telling Lin Xiao Tian you dare not deal with him?"
"Are you trying to fool a three-year-old child here?"
Liu Jing also gritted her teeth in anger. "I said I dare not openly deal with Lin Xiao Tian."
"You haven't experienced his strength. If he wants you dead, no one can save you."
"And his methods, once you experience them, you'll know what true suffering is."
These words astonished Wu Jie. His gaze towards Lin Xiao Tian became somewhat suspicious.
However, he quickly came to his senses.
If Lin Xiao Tian was truly that powerful, there would be no need for any schemes or tricks.
Wouldn't it be better to just act directly?
A mocking smile appeared on his face.
"It seems you are extremely fearful of Lin Xiao Tian. He must have brought you some terrifying memories."
"And precisely because of this, you wanted to find ways to deal with Lin Xiao Tian."
"You couldn't afford to offend him, so you arranged for our Wu family to be the cannon fodder, possibly even wanting us to be locked in an endless battle with Lin Xiao Tian."
"Truly, a woman's heart is the most venomous!"
Liu Jing knew very well that some things were never as simple as they seemed.
She felt like she had shot herself in the foot, completely manipulated by Lin Xiao Tian.
When she realized this, her gaze towards Lin Xiao Tian was filled with resentment.
"Since you don't believe my words, why are you personally coming to question me? Why not just attack me directly?"
Wu Jie said angrily, "Are you saying you're going to trash everything now?"
"Do you really think the Wu family is easy to bully?"
Anger was beginning to consume his reason.
If Liu Jing had sincerely explained and offered compensation, he might not have been so furious.
He might even have agreed to some compensation under certain conditions and resolved the matter completely.
But Liu Jing's current attitude made him extremely enraged.
Lin Xiao Tian smiled and said, "Old Wu, do you have anything else to say? Since she's already admitted it and clearly doesn't put your Wu family in her eyes, aren't you going to teach her a lesson?"
"Shut up!" Liu Jing turned around angrily.
She was also extremely annoyed. She knew this was definitely Lin Xiao Tian's plan to use a borrowed knife to kill.
The Wu family would not let him off easily, and Lin Xiao Tian's objective had been achieved, yet he was now acting like he had suffered a loss.
Lin Xiao Tian chuckled playfully, "The biggest victim in this matter is the Wu family."
"Old Wu's nephew is lying in the hospital, wishing he were dead. That's why I'm giving him this opportunity for revenge. If Old Wu doesn't act, then I will. Are you sure you want me to act?"
Liu Jing's eyes filled with anger. At this moment, she could no longer hold back.
Her rage even overshadowed her fear. When had she ever been schemed against like this? She was always the one scheming against others.
She couldn't swallow this insult!
