This man knows how to hype

Chapter 571: Cowardice is hereditary
Many people may have had a similar experience.

That is, when you encounter something, you may not think it is a big deal at first, but as time goes by, the more you think about it, the more scared you become, and the more panicked you become.

This is Liu Yutao.

At first, when he was in the yard, facing Xu Xiyu's arrogance, his mind was filled with rage, so he was quite insensitive to Xia Ru's wild words.

Then, when Xu Xiyu left, he vaguely came to his senses and felt that something was wrong.

Now, after nearly an hour of thinking and pondering on the way home, his mood could no longer be described as "wrong".

Panic.

Liu Yutao was really panicked this time.

He sat on the sofa in his living room, becoming more and more frightened the more he thought about it.

Fortunately, not long after, someone came to share his fear.

This person was Liu's father "Liu Dayong" who had hurried back from a social event. After listening to Liu Yutao repeating Xia Ru's words, Liu Dayong sobered up instantly!

He bent down in disbelief and pressed Liu Yutao's shoulders, and asked in a trembling voice: "What did Xia Ru say?!!!"

"Dad, what I just said has been very clear." Liu Yutao felt like crying but had no tears.

Upon hearing this, Liu Dayong let go of Liu Yutao's shoulders and slowly straightened up.

Maybe it was because he drank too much, which led to insufficient blood supply to the brain, but he suddenly felt dizzy and staggered back a few steps before he could stand steady.

After he stood firm, he half-murmured and half-asked, "If I remember correctly, Xia Ru has been with Ling Yi for a full 10 years, right?"

"Yes, she is Ling Yi's college classmate." Liu Yutao said hurriedly.

After that, he added: "And she is Ling Yi's lover. Even her parents, her brother, and her uncle's family are now in good positions because of Ling Yi."

Hearing this, Liu Dayong felt dizzy again and couldn't understand: "It means that Xia Ru is Ling Yi's loyal confidant who has been with him for many years and has family members to threaten him. How...how can this be possible?"

"Dad, do you think someone instructed Xia Ru to harm Ling Yi? That's impossible. She and Ling Yi are too closely tied. If anything happens to Ling Yi, she will definitely not be able to get away with it."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Dayong's legs softened and he sat on the chair and said, "That's even worse. According to what you said, she dared to speak so arrogantly. She must have learned it from Ling Yi or even Ling Yi's father in private?"

Some things don't weigh much if they are not weighed, but if they are weighed, they weigh thousands of pounds. If ordinary people brag, no one will care about you; but Ling Yi and Ling Yi's father are different. What if the opponent takes the opportunity to attack?
With Ling Yi's arrogant and domineering behavior in recent years, he would not be able to withstand investigation.

At this time, Liu Yutao also reacted, and quickly stood up and crawled to Liu Dayong's side and said: "Dad... Dad! What should we do? We are deeply bound to Ling Yi, and we have helped him do a lot of money-making things!"

"Don't panic, don't panic." Liu Dayong forced himself to calm down, and then confirmed, "You mean, there are only five of you in the yard, right?"

"Correct."

"Xia Ru shouldn't say anything nonsense. Maybe she is regretting it now. After all, she will be the first one who can't escape if something happens. So, now we have to deal with the other three people." Liu Dayong paused when he said this.

Then he said to Liu Yutao: "Can you make Lan Shuyun shut up?"

"Yes, she doesn't dare to say anything!" Liu Yutao agreed without thinking.
"So, the most urgent thing is to deal with Xu Xiyu and his assistant. As long as they don't say anything nonsense, then this matter can be concealed."

"Dad, what if Xu Xiyu is a big mouth?"

"I'm afraid he won't say anything. It would be easier to deal with him if he really asks for something!" Liu Dayong said with a grim expression.

"Oh, Dad, speaking of this, there is one thing I really can't figure out. You don't know that when I met Xu Xiyu just now, he was extremely arrogant!

When he saw me taking out the photos of Ke Xinying and the other two pregnant women, he was not panicked at all. He was chatting and laughing with his assistant. In the end, he even threw the photos in my face!
After smashing it, he took out a recorder and placed it on the coffee table in front of everyone, asking me to tell him Ling Yi's plan..."

"Wait, what did you say?" As soon as these words came out, Liu Dayong was struck by lightning. He stood up and interrupted Liu Yutao's chattering.

Then, he asked with a look of wanting to eat someone: "You mean, Xu Xiyu recorded it?!"

"..." Liu Yutao was frightened by his father's cannibalistic look and didn't dare to answer. After a long while, he nodded softly and said, "Yes, he might have recorded it."

"You mean, he just took out the recorder, put it in front of you and said he wanted to record it?"

"……Correct."

"You mean, Xia Ru said those words when she clearly knew that Xu Xiyu was recording and possibly even filming the video?" Liu Dayong confirmed again and again.

Just now Liu Yutao just repeated what Xia Ru said without mentioning so many details.

"...Yes." Liu Yutao's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

After hearing this answer, Liu Dayong felt his body go limp and he slid down the chair and sat on the ground.

"Dad... Dad... You... You are not dead, are you?!" Seeing this, Liu Yutao hurriedly squatted down and supported the limp Liu Dayong.

Liu Dayong did not reply, and was stunned for a minute or two, then he turned his head and looked at Liu Yutao and said, "It's over, it's really over now." Xia Ru knew that Xu Xiyu was recording the video, but she still confidently said a '19-to-10 plan'; then she made such a wild statement.

These two things, if mentioned separately, would be enough to prove that they are serious, but when they are mentioned together, and someone even recorded it on tape..."

Having said this, Liu Dayong could no longer continue.

There are two kinds of people in this world. One kind becomes more and more crazy after gaining power, just like Ling Yi.

There is another type, who becomes more and more cowardly after seeing cruelty. Liu Dayong is such a contestant. Liu Yutao's cowardice is inherited from Liu Dayong.

"Yutao, clean up now."

"What to pack?"

"Pack up and go abroad!" Liu Dayong scolded.

After cursing, he lowered his voice and said, "Xu Xiyu is fearless, Xia Ru seems to have taken the wrong medicine, these two seem to be cooperating.

But the question is, why would Xia Ru cooperate with Xu Xiyu? Unless she doesn't want to live, there is only one possibility, there must be someone stronger than Ling Yi's father behind the scenes!"

"So, so you're planning to run away?"

"Yes, hurry up and take your valuables with you. I'll arrange for someone to handle the paperwork. It would be best if we could leave tonight, first to the Philippines, and then to Canada to find your mother."

"As for Ling Yi, should we tell him about the recording and videotaping?"

"No, I can't tell you. If I tell you, I can't leave. Yu Tao, to be honest, I've seen Ling Yi become more and more reckless over the years, and I always feel that something bad is going to happen.

The fact that Hengfu's Lao Li ran away has already alerted us. Fortunately, fortunately, I had already made preparations all these years and let your mother go to Canada."

After Liu Dayong finished speaking, he patted Liu Yutao on the face and said, "Wake up, hurry up, if you delay any longer, you will not be able to leave."

"Oh, okay, oh..." After being beaten, Liu Yutao got up from the ground and started running towards the room in panic.

Here, Liu Yutao and his father plan to go abroad.

On the other hand, Xu Xiyu, who had originally planned to go to Europe to attend the upcoming Cologne Game Show and visit Italy to meet Sherlock, has now suspended all plans to go abroad.

There are some things that Liu Yutao feels more and more wrong the more he thinks about them.

The same is true for Xu Xiyu himself.

However, Shan Xinbao was very confused about this decision and asked in confusion: "Boss, why don't you leave for no reason? Aren't we going to go out and look around to increase our international influence again?"

Hearing this, Xu Xiyu played with the USB flash drive in his hand and shook his head, saying, "Do you understand the principle of keeping out the trouble? If I hadn't met Liu Yutao and the others today, and hadn't recorded what Xia Ru said.

It doesn't matter if we go out for a walk, but if we go out for a walk now that we have this thing in our hands, some things won't be explained clearly, so please don't let people misunderstand us."

"Boss, do you think Liu Yutao and the others will come to us to ask for the recording?"

"Of course. How can Liu Yutao sleep without this recording? Liu Yutao can sleep, but Ling Yi can't. Just wait and see. He might come to find us tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Xu Xiyu said as a matter of course.

"Then should we give it to him or not?"

"Give it to me. It's an electronic version, not a handwritten IOU. What's the harm in giving it to me?" Xu Xiyu replied without any hesitation.

"What should they give in exchange?"

"No, don't change anything. This is not something that can be traded for benefits."

"Wouldn't that be a bargain for them?"

"It's not a bargain. I won't take a penny. They are the ones who feel bad, not me. In fact, I really hope that they can threaten me again by taking back the recording." Xu Xiyu said with a smile.

He smiled and said, "Okay, forget about them. We just need to do our own thing. Although we won't go abroad, we still need to create influence."

"Hey." Shan Xinbao said and looked at his watch. He was just about to tell Xu Xiyu that the MV of "Bauhinia Blossoms" had been released.

But then I heard Xu Xiyu's cell phone ringing.

Xu Xiyu picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number from Beijing.

Seeing this number, Shan Xinbao whispered, "Could it be Ling Yi?"

"It could also be Xia Ru." Xu Xiyu answered the phone and said, "Hello, who is this?"

"Xiao Xu, are you busy?" A familiar voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone.

"I'm sorry, my phone receiver is broken, so the sound quality is a bit distorted. Who are you?"
