Chapter 1803: Who is the smartest?
Jiang Zixuan was very clear about this point. He knew that if Yu Fei was to tell everyone the truth, Yu Dong was surely not going to leave him alone. Since that was the case, then he would have to drag Zhou Ziming down with him. If not, then not only would he be dragged to the Yamen, he would also end up in much more trouble.
What if his wife was to divorce him and ask him to leave? Zhou Ziming would be fine as he had the village head to support him, but what about him? Who would be willing to help him? Jiang Zixuan thus knew that if he wanted to survive, he needed to cling onto Zhou Ziming.
If this mer escaped then he would end up in really big trouble!
Zhou Ziming cursed Jiang Zixuan again and again. In the end, he rolled his eyes and said without holding back, "There is no point in trying to pull me down. No one ever saw you talk with me and you have no evidence to prove that I was the one who asked you to do such a thing."
"You —"
"Instead of wasting time here with me, why don't you go to the town and deal with Yu Fei, once and for all? As long as he dies before he can tell anyone who caused him to fall into that pit everything will be fine."
Jiang Zixuan panicked when he heard Zhou Ziming's words. However, at the same time, his heart moved. That's right, as long as Yu Fei dies, no one will find out that it was him who asked him to go up the mountain, thought Jiang Zixuan.
But at the same time he was worried. What if something went wrong?
"Zhou Ziming, that mer is already awake…if I do something to him, then —"
Zhou Ziming sneered when he heard Jiang Zixuan's words. He said to him, "Be honest with me, Jiang Zixuan. Do you really care about that mer? No, you don't! You only care about yourself. Anyway, that mer fell from such a distance. It's normal for him to wake up and then lose his life. His injuries were quite severe at that time. Just make sure that he heads down the magical road and everything will be fine."
"How can this be done?" Jiang Zixuan shook his head and said to Zhou Ziming, "What if someone catches me? What am I going to do then?" He looked at Zhou Ziming with a burning look in his eyes and said to him, "Zhou Ziming, you are the one who is behind this entire matter. You have to help me no matter what! Tell me a better solution..."
"Jiang Zixuan, it seems like you have no idea what is going on, do you?" Zhou Ziming smiled condescendingly. He pushed the mer who was clinging to his arms and then said to him, "It was you who told Yu Fei to go up the mountains; it was you who hired the thugs under my name. As long as I refuse to admit it, who will believe that I did anything to Yu Fei? Not to mention, even if I was close with Xiao Chuxia, she was in it together! What about you? You had nothing to do with Xiao Chuxia, but you still kept jumping around Yu Fei."
"Who scolded Yu Fei all the time? It was you!"
"Who asked Yu Fei to go up the mountains? It was you!"
"Who targeted Yu Fei in the village and spread rumours about him? It was you! It was all you!"
"You—" Jiang Zixuan was so furious that he wished he could fight with Zhou Ziming. He looked at the mer coldly before saying, "Are you not afraid that I will confess and blame you?"
"Don't be stupid," Zhou Ziming snarled with a derisive expression on his face. "Do you really think that you can do such a thing? My mother will do everything in her power to stop you. If you dare to say a word against me, I assure you that I will make it impossible for your family to live in the village."
Jiang Zixuan's face changed when he heard Zhou Ziming's words. He finally realised something!
Zhou Ziming knew this from the start; he knew that no matter what he did or what he made him do, there was no way he would be captured and dragged to the Yamen.
With his mother being the village head of the Zhou village, there was no way anyone could cause trouble for him.
No wonder Brother Tao and the rest did not cause any trouble for Zhou Ziming. This was because they knew that Zhou Ziming would throw them out of the villagers along with their families.
But he was different.
His mother was a poor farmer and only owned a few mu of land in the village next to Zhou village. If Yu Fei told the Yamen officers, not only was he going to be captured, but he would also end up being locked up in the Yamen!
If that happened, what would happen to his children?
No, he could not die!
He had three kids, and if he died, then his wife would definitely leave them to the second husband. If that happened, his children would be ruined by that mer.
With that thought, he straightened up, raised his head, and looked at Zhou Ziming with a frown on his face. "You are right, I don't have a great mother to support me. But I am telling you that if I get caught, then I will definitely drag you with me."
"You say that I have no evidence? Haha, the fact that you stayed with Xiao Chuxia and continued to entangle with her is the biggest evidence! Even if I cannot drag you to prison, I can still ruin your reputation, right?"
