"Lin Jianxi - oh no, I should call you Lin Jin now."

Han Chenfei promptly changed his words and addressed the young man, step by step, approaching him. The heels of his black patent leather shoes made a rustling sound on the soft ground, which seemed particularly abrupt in the courtyard far away from the noisy banquet hall.

"You acted really well. I want to give you a prize."

"You're too kind. I'm not as good as Young Master Han. He wouldn't stay in the banquet hall but would rather hide here and eavesdrop." Lin Jianxi was still leaning lazily on the railing. There was no panic on his face. He even retorted immediately.

Han Chenfei sneered after hearing this: "I was just feeling bored inside so I came out to get some fresh air. Who knew I'd see such a good show!"

His face was gloomy, and he stretched out his long arms and climbed onto the white marble fence. The cold touch spread from the base of his thumb, but it could not extinguish the raging anger in his heart. His tone was sarcastic and indignant, but the sour taste could not be concealed.

"You've gone to great lengths to play tricks on people, and now you're feeling proud of yourself after seeing so many people lose their minds because of you?"

"So many people?" Lin Jianxi repeated his words playfully, paused, and then blinked innocently, "Who are you referring to?"

"Stop playing dumb!" Han Chenfei's eyes darkened and he moved closer, almost trapping him half between himself and the stone railing. The cold fragrance from his body quickly invaded every inch of the young man's breath.

"The Lin family treated you as an innocent little white rabbit. Mingfeng and my cousin were deceived by you and believed you. Qiao Mochuan and Lu Wenfeng were even more stupid. They were fooled by you."

He unceremoniously exposed the entire plan of the man in front of him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully scanned the young man's face with his sharp gaze, not missing the slightest change in expression, trying to find even a hint of guilt or fear.

But what was unexpected was that even though he was caught on the spot, Lin Jianxi's attitude was still very calm, so calm that he seemed to have nothing to fear.

"That's all? That's all?" He even sighed and shook his head, with a hint of disappointment in his tone. "Could it be that... you are not one of the people who have lost their souls?"

The intonation of a sentence can take three turns, with just the right length and pauses. The end of the sentence floats in the air like a cloud, lifting people's hearts high.

Han Chenfei's breathing stagnated slightly, and he inexplicably felt a sense of weightlessness with his emotions fluctuating. After he came to his senses, he immediately began to scold him harshly: "You are simply--"

"Are you angry and embarrassed because I hit the nail on the head?" Lin Jianxi glanced at him and interrupted him calmly.

So Han Chenfei took a deep breath, forced himself to hold back his anger, put on a calm attitude, pulled the corners of his mouth and said nonchalantly: "You are not that capable yet."

"Isn't it a little late to pretend to be calm now?" This time his tone became relaxed, with obvious teasing, as if he was teasing a pet with ease.

"..." Han Chenfei could no longer bear it. He gritted his teeth and was about to explode, but suddenly he heard Lin Jianxi sigh softly.

"Forget it. I won't tease you anymore. I'm afraid you'll be really angry." There was a rare sense of helplessness and tenderness hidden in his words, which dissipated in the wind as soon as they came out.
