Jiang Yi couldn't help but laugh.
The Liu family were truly a bunch of eccentrics.
Jiang Yi wasn't interested in this matter. His gaze drifted towards the arm of the man in the suit, but he was disappointed.
The man in the suit's tattoo was not a scorpion tattoo; it only looked somewhat similar.
This made Jiang Yi feel incredibly frustrated.
All this effort and it seemed to be for nothing.
Jiang Yi turned and exited the room. Stepping into the hallway, just as he was about to leave, two familiar figures walked towards him.
These two were none other than Liu Tianyu and his father, Liu Yong.
Judging by Liu Yong's expression, he didn't seem to know about his young wife's affair, otherwise, he wouldn't be so calm.
"Well, well, if it isn't the worthless son-in-law kicked out of the Ye family?"
Liu Tianyu said loudly with a mocking tone, "A trash like you doesn't belong in a place like this."
Liu Tianyu hated Jiang Yi to the bone. Encountering Jiang Yi, he naturally wanted to humiliate him properly.
He even considered using this opportunity to get rid of Jiang Yi.
"He's the Ye family's son-in-law?"
Liu Yong sized up Jiang Yi with his gaze and then asked Liu Tianyu.
"That's right, it's this kid!"
After speaking, Liu Tianyu whispered to Liu Yong, "Dad, if it weren't for this kid ruining my good fortune, I would have become the Ye family's son-in-law long ago. Since I've run into him today, I can't let him leave alive."
"Don't do anything rash!"
Liu Yong said sternly, "I heard he's quite close to the Chen family. Before we figure out his relationship with the Chen family, don't mess with him."
Liu Yong appeared very cautious.
Afterward, Liu Yong glanced at Jiang Yi with a complex expression and then walked straight downstairs.
Liu Tianyu wasn't going to let Jiang Yi off the hook. He sized Jiang Yi up with his gaze, then glanced at the room of the man in the suit, and sneered, "You broke bum, other than that villa, you have nothing. What are you doing here, trying to steal something?"
Liu Tianyu deliberately raised his voice.
Soon, a large crowd gathered, all pointing and gesturing at Jiang Yi.
"Call the police quickly and arrest him."
"You thief, you have a lot of nerve, daring to steal in broad daylight."
...
Everyone believed Jiang Yi was a thief.
Seeing his scheme succeed, Liu Tianyu wore a smug smile.
But Liu Tianyu felt that this was too easy on Jiang Yi. He then spoke to the crowd, "We can't let this kid off the hook easily. We must teach him a profound lesson. Call the police and arrest him, then let him out in a few days, and he'll still steal. This is from the Su Dan Novel Network."
The crowd readily agreed, believing Liu Tianyu's words were very reasonable.
"I have a suggestion!"
A sinister cold smile appeared on Liu Tianyu's face. "Let's find some reporters and expose this kid. Let everyone in Jiangcheng know he's a thief. From now on, everyone will be wary of him, and even if he wants to steal, he'll have no opportunity."
Upon hearing this, the crowd nodded in approval.
Someone directly took out their phone and called a reporter.
Liu Tianyu's plan was very malicious, aiming to utterly ruin Jiang Yi.
Once the media exposed Jiang Yi as a thief, he would have no way to stay in Jiangcheng and would become a universally reviled rat crossing the street.
Liu Tianyu also didn't stand idly by, taking out his phone and constantly calling the media.
Seeing this, Jiang Yi grinned.
This kid Liu Tianyu still didn't know his stepmother was in the adjacent room, fooling around with that man in the suit.
Jiang Yi decided to stay and watch Liu Tianyu's self-directed drama unfold.
To prevent Jiang Yi from escaping, Liu Tianyu directly blocked the hallway.
"You can still stop now, or you'll regret it," Jiang Yi said to Liu Tianyu with a smile.
"Regret? What a joke. I never do things I regret!"
Liu Tianyu sneered, "I want to make you a public nuisance. Most importantly, I want Yanran to know about this, to see what kind of person you are. Then she'll completely give up on you."
After speaking, Liu Tianyu said disdainfully, "You're still too green to fight with me."
Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
These were words he himself had originally said, but now they were coming from Liu Tianyu's mouth.
Now, Liu Tianyu could be smug, but later he wouldn't even have a place to cry.
Half an hour later, a large group of reporters arrived.
"Gentlemen, there's no conclusive evidence yet, and this kid will definitely not admit it,"
Liu Tianyu said to the surrounding reporters. "This kid just came out of this room, and what he stole must be from this room. Everyone turn on your cameras and come in with me. Once we find the evidence, he'll have nothing to say!"
After speaking, Liu Tianyu kicked open the room door and led the reporters inside.
Jiang Yi was stunned.
He felt Liu Tianyu was like an idiot.
His stepmother was in the room with the man in the suit on the bed, and he was actually bringing these reporters in.
Jiang Yi truly didn't know what to say.
Jiang Yi certainly didn't want to miss this good show and followed them in.
The moment the room door was opened, even the reporters were dumbfounded.
These reporters didn't want to miss this opportunity; it was big news. They came to catch a thief but ended up catching an affair.
They hadn't yet realized that the woman on the bed was Liu Tianyu's stepmother.
"Sir, thank you so much for letting us capture such great news."
"Sir, may I know your surname!"
"After we finish filming, we must invite this gentleman to a meal to express our gratitude."
...
The group of reporters spoke volubly, all of them expressing gratitude towards Liu Tianyu.
Liu Tianyu stood frozen on the spot.
His face was ten thousand times uglier than a pig's liver.
He never dreamed that he, who had personally called to catch Jiang Yi the thief, would end up catching his stepmother in bed with someone else.
This was truly like lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot.
The man in the suit and Liu Tianyu's stepmother, seeing so many reporters suddenly appear, were startled and quickly covered their heads and bodies with the blankets, but it was no use. Their faces and their embarrassing situation were all captured by these reporters.
Inside the room, the lights flashed continuously.
The reporters vied with each other, 'click, click, click,' snapping photos.
In this era, it was the information age.
Within minutes, all the photos and videos were uploaded online, the sensation almost matching the opening ceremony of the Tiansheng Group.
As long as one was within Jiangcheng, one could see this news by simply opening their phone.
Soon, someone identified Liu Tianyu's stepmother.
At once, Liu Yong, Liu Tianyu, and even the entire Liu family, became the subject of public discussion.
Liu Tianyu slumped onto the sofa.
The show was over. Jiang Yi left the hotel directly.
