Chapter 232: Looking at the Scumbag
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
On the way to the restaurant, the more E.P. thought about it, the more indignant he became. Finally, he raised his foot and kicked his subordinate beside him. “Hey! Go back and listen to the aftermath of those people. Come over and tell me later!”
On the other side, Yue Xin and the others also planned to go to the restaurant to eat. No.12 had not looked good since he heard that Denise had indicated the card for E.P.
When Yi Chengxuan saw this, he didn’t say anything. Instead, when No.12 attacked Denise with his eyes, he cut in and asked Yue Xin, “Do you think E.P. is powerful?”
Yue Xin nodded. “Yes, he’s powerful, but not as powerful as you.”
Yi Chengxuan had originally planned to take a few rounds before inquiring about Yue Xin’s opinion of him, but he choked on his words.
Yue Xin looked at Yi Chengxuan. With her calm eyes, she suddenly said something that made one’s heart beat like a drum.
“I don’t quite understand the human heart you taught, but E.P. taught it well. So, I think if I understand the human heart taught by E.P. first, I can understand what you taught, right?”
Yi Chengxuan did not answer and only smiled faintly.
Yue Xin asked, “Yi Chengxuan, when I understand the hearts of the people taught by E.P., can you teach me your approach to the hearts of the people?”
Yi Chengxuan still didn’t answer after hearing Yue Xin’s words. Instead, he looked at Denise and asked Yue Xin, “What do you think about Denise revealing her cards to E.P. just now?”
Yue Xin asked, “In what way?
Hearing that Yue Xin had already learned how to change the topic, Yi
Chengxuan chuckled. “You’re learning very quickly.”
Yue Xin said, “I learn from listening to you every day.”
Yi Chengxuan asked in confusion, “Do I beat around the bush?”
“Yes, your words are always difficult to understand.” To be precise, it is impossible to tell what is true, what is fake, what is simply useless, and what is to pave the way for your next words.
Yi Chengxuan didn’t plan to beat around the bush with Yue Xin anymore. He said, “You weren’t very surprised when you found out that Denise had revealed your cards. When did you find out?”
Yue Xin looked at No.12, who was still attacking Denise with his eyes, and suddenly felt that it was a little cute. Oh, don’t misunderstand. She was talking about Denise being cute.
“When I got to the lobby with No. 12 just now, the two of you arrived at the wrong time. At Denise’s usual walking speed, she should be three minutes late, but she was four minutes late. So I think the two of you should have talked about something.”
“Is that all?” Yi Chengxuan asked.
Yue Xin recalled if there were any other abnormalities at that time, but she realized that other than this, she couldn’t analyze anything else. If she had to say it, it was…
“And intuition.”
Yi Chengxuan was not surprised by this answer. There were indeed many people with this talent. They did not have strong logical analysis abilities, but they could avoid danger through intuition.
“Why do you think Denise sold you out?”
When Yue Xin heard Yi Chengxuan’s words, she suddenly looked at him as if he was a scumbag. “Didn’t you arrange it?”
“Since you know that I arranged for Denise to sell you out, don’t you have anything to ask me?” Yi Chengxuan was still very calm. He was not flustered at all.
Yue Xin shook her head. “I can’t understand you yet. I’ll try again after I learn the human heart from E.P.’
Yi Chengxuan heard a key message from this sentence: I can’t analyze your actions, so I’ll leave it be!
Yi Chengxuan glanced at the restaurant not far away and suddenly stopped in his tracks. Just as he stopped, Yue Xin stopped and looked at him.
Denise and No.12 also stood behind Yue Xin. The atmosphere suddenly became serious.
Under such an atmosphere, Yi Chengxuan slowly said, “If the person beside you might betray you, it means that you haven’t really controlled that person. Whether it’s through feelings, exploiting weaknesses, or even using bargaining chips, as long as you can’t really restrain that person, when he meets someone stronger than you, he will betray you without hesitation.”
“I used Denise’s younger brothers and sisters as bait and promised them that they could join Building No. 5 without participating in the branch battle. This was to grasp her weakness.”
When Denise heard Yi Chengxuan’s words, she was very calm, just like when she faced Yue Xin’s questioning. She had already achieved her goal, so there was nothing to be afraid of. She seemed to be certain that Yue Xin couldn’t do anything to her. She even walked straight to Yi Chengxuan’s side and smiled at Yue Xin. “I’m sorry, Sister Yue Xin. You and your knight don’t seem to be willing to protect me, so I can only choose someone else.”
Denise stood beside Yi Chengxuan. Yi Chengxuan was the head of Building No. 5 and had an extremely good reputation among the prisoners. She had observed the state of the prisoners in Building No. 5. They could talk about the most ordinary and peaceful life..
