Fu Yan Ting saw through Elder Yao's thoughts at a glance. The corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
Looking at Elder Yao, Fu Yan Ting said coldly, "It's not that easy to kill me."
"Fu Yan Ting, didn't you get poisoned by the food Yan Xi made?"
Elder Yao deliberately asked Fu Yan Ting this way, wanting to tell Fu Yan Ting that Fu Yan Ting's poisoning was orchestrated by Yan Xi, and it had nothing to do with him.
If Fu Yan Ting wanted to settle scores, he should find Yan Xi, not trouble him.
Unfortunately, Fu Yan Ting had long anticipated that Elder Yao would say this and had already seen through Elder Yao's scheme. He didn't take Elder Yao's words seriously.
Fu Yan Ting raised an eyebrow and didn't reply.
Elder Yao found that this Fu Yan Ting was indeed not as simple as he thought.
He had truly underestimated Fu Yan Ting's abilities before.
"I want to take Yan Xi away. Tell me, where is she?"
"Mr. Fu, you're a step too late. Yan Xi has already been taken away by Mu Jing Chen."
Hearing Elder Yao say this, Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but frown and size up Elder Yao.
Elder Yao didn't seem to care and paused before speaking again, "Fu Yan Ting, if I were you, I would take care of myself and not be tied down by emotions anymore."
"Unfortunately, you are not me."
Fu Yan Ting responded coldly.
Elder Yao saying that Yan Xi was taken away by Mu Jing Chen was just to spite Fu Yan Ting for the rest of his life.
When Fu Yan Ting came to Kyoto, he had already predicted that Yan Xi would not be able to hold back and would come to Kyoto alone. Therefore, Fu Yan Ting had instructed Xin Yi to install a tracker on Yan Xi.
And now, the positioning tracker indicated that Yan Xi was at the Yao residence.
Seeing that Elder Yao had no intention of revealing Yan Xi's whereabouts, Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but frown and said, "Since you're not going to say, then don't blame me for being impolite."
After speaking, Fu Yan Ting strode towards Yao Wan Qi's room.
Elder Yao frowned, his displeasure showing vividly on his face.
Elder Yao followed closely behind Fu Yan Ting.
Fu Yan Ting went to Yao Wan Qi's room. As soon as he reached the door, Yao Wan Qi looked at Fu Yan Ting and asked indifferently, "You're here to find my daughter, aren't you? Who allowed you to come? Your marriage was something I couldn't prevent before because I didn't know. Now, as far as I know, you've already divorced. If that's the case, please stay away from my daughter and don't disturb her peaceful life anymore."
Hearing Yao Wan Qi's words, Fu Yan Ting suddenly smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
"Auntie, you didn't say that to me before. Why the sudden change of heart?"
Fu Yan Ting looked at Yao Wan Qi and said lightly, but it made Yao Wan Qi a little embarrassed.
Yao Wan Qi coughed twice and replied indifferently, "Times have changed. I originally thought you would treat Xi Xi well for the rest of your life, but I can be wrong. You hurt my Xi Xi so much. I certainly can't condone you continuing to hurt Xi Xi."
Fu Yan Ting's laughter grew louder after hearing Yao Wan Qi's words.
Yao Wan Qi knew that Fu Yan Ting was cruel and ruthless, but she had never confronted him directly. This was her first encounter, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Fu Yan Ting was truly handsome. She wondered what good luck Yan Xi had to have such a god-like husband like Fu Yan Ting.
Yao Wan Qi sized up Fu Yan Ting, only to see Fu Yan Ting preparing to barge in.
Yao Wan Qi tried to stop him, but she was no match for Fu Yan Ting.
Suddenly, Elder Yao stood behind Fu Yan Ting and asked coldly and distantly, "Mr. Fu, by doing this, are you truly not taking my Yao family seriously?"
"I just want to see Yan Xi. As long as you hand over Xi Xi, I will never bother you again and will leave with Xi Xi immediately."
"I already said, Xi Xi is not here. She has been taken away by Mu Jing Chen. What, Mr. Fu, are you here to interrogate me?"
Facing Elder Yao's aggressive questioning, Fu Yan Ting didn't take it seriously at all. He directly displayed the positioning tracker and looked at Elder Yao, saying coldly, "Since you say Xi Xi was taken away by Mu Jing Chen, why are you afraid to let me in to find her? Elder Yao, what are you afraid of?"
Elder Yao hadn't expected that Fu Yan Ting would have a backup plan and had actually placed a positioning tracker on Yan Xi.
Elder Yao glanced at Yao Wan Qi. Yao Wan Qi subtly nodded at Elder Yao.
Elder Yao had a plan. He looked at Fu Yan Ting. Although Elder Yao was old, he still had a commanding presence in front of Fu Yan Ting. Leaning on his cane, he said to Fu Yan Ting, "Mr. Fu, since you are so determined to find Xi Xi, if I were to stop you, it would only arouse your suspicion. In that case, Elder Yao will allow Fu Yan Ting to search. This will give Fu Yan Ting an opportunity and prevent any gossip."
Elder Yao stepped aside, signaling Fu Yan Ting to go in and find Yan Xi. Fu Yan Ting went in and searched but couldn't find Yan Xi.
However, the phone's positioning system showed that Yan Xi was indeed here.
Fu Yan Ting felt a faint sense of unease, but he didn't show it in front of Elder Yao.
Elder Yao sneered, "Mr. Fu, you can eat anything, but you can't say anything that's not true. Xi Xi is my Yao family's child. Your grand search for Xi Xi's whereabouts would make people think my Yao family did something bad to Xi Xi."
Fu Yan Ting's brows furrowed tightly, and he didn't reply.
Elder Yao knew very well that Yan Xi had been under house arrest in this room all along. Now that Fu Yan Ting couldn't find Yan Xi, it was because Yao Wan Qi had hidden her. Elder Yao knew in his heart that Yan Xi was indeed in this room.
Otherwise, Fu Yan Ting's tracker wouldn't have shown this location.
Seeing that Fu Yan Ting remained silent, Elder Yao spoke again, "Mr. Fu, since you're convinced that Xi Xi is at the Yao residence, then continue searching. That way, you won't be unable to find her and blame this old man."
Fu Yan Ting frowned. The reason Elder Yao dared to speak like this was because he was certain that Fu Yan Ting wouldn't dare to search openly again.
Fu Yan Ting glanced thoughtfully at Elder Yao. Since Yan Xi wasn't here, he wouldn't continue searching. Fu Yan Ting turned to leave. As soon as he turned, a knocking sound came from inside the room.
Hearing the sound, Fu Yan Ting couldn't help but stop and tried to identify the direction of the sound through the knocking.
