You just didn't want to take the responsibility, so you used me as a pawn!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was also deceived by you. I won't listen to you anymore. You never intended to save the Second Uncle at all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Yi Zhonghai's heart was in his throat, but he knew he couldn't let his cover be blown, or he would be completely finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tian had no interest in watching this farce anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tian then moved his mind, and an Illusion Talisman was directly cast on Yi Yi Zhonghai!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Yi Yi Zhonghai froze in place, looking completely foolish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone didn't expect Yi Yi Zhonghai, who had been so emotional just a moment ago, to suddenly stop talking!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone's appetite was whetted, and they couldn't help but ask questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yi Yi Zhonghai, if you have something to say, just say it all at once. Why are you freezing there?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right, what exactly happened? Why is the IOU in your hands?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, you can't just brush us off with a few words!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone shouted one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Yi Zhonghai, under the influence of the Illusion Talisman, was clearly in an illusion and had no defenses at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I tricked the Second Aunt into writing the IOU just to swindle 200 yuan from her later!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I originally planned to use Chen Tian's name to trick the Second Aunt into signing the IOU, and then go to Liu Liu Haizhong to ask where he hid the money!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I didn't expect that after I saw Liu Liu Haizhong, I couldn't ask about the location of the money, and then Chen Tian came, and I couldn't go find Liu Liu Haizhong anymore!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This whole thing was planned by me; Chen Tian didn't know about it at all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To grease some palms, I spent money to buy two packs of Da Da Qianmen, and feeling like I lost out, I asked the Second Aunt to borrow money!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn't expect this idiot to make such a big scene, so I had no choice but to stand up and slander Chen Tian!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Yi Yi Zhonghai, under the influence of the Illusion Talisman, revealed all his inner secrets in response to everyone's questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Aunt stood there, stunned, finally understanding the whole thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had always felt something was fishy before; Chen Tian's demand was 500 yuan, so why did it suddenly drop to 200!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Yi Yi Zhonghai's stuttering and excessive eagerness were indeed too suspicious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yi Yi Zhonghai, you bastard, are you even human? Our family is already so miserable, and you still thought about swindling our money!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You animal, you're really not human. I was truly blind to have believed you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Aunt was furious; she never expected that Yi Yi Zhonghai, who seemed so warm-hearted, was such an animal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My god, Yi Yi Zhonghai could actually do such a thing. After all, he was the First Uncle of our Sihe Academy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bullshit Uncle, he's a complete hypocrite. The Second Aunt actually chose to believe him, she's truly blind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I knew something was wrong. Chen Tian is a dignified 3rd-level engineer, how could he care about a hundred or two? Only a greedy bastard like Yi Yi Zhonghai would come up with such a poisonous plan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was incredibly indignant. Although they had long known Yi Yi Zhonghai wasn't a good person, this incident still made them furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Yan Bugui didn't dare to say a word now; he never expected things to turn out like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he offended Chen Tian, he would be the one to suffer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yi Yi Zhonghai, you old bastard, I'll beat you to death, you animal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning the truth, Liu Guangtian and Liu Liu Guangfu were furious. They stepped forward, grabbed Yi Yi Zhonghai by the collar, and slapped him twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two slaps directly woke Yi Yi Zhonghai up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's going on? Liu Liu Guangfu, Liu Guangtian, let me go! Who told you to hit me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Yi Zhonghai felt the burning pain on his face and tried to break free, but he couldn't!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with it came the memory of being under the Illusion Talisman just now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Yi Yi Zhonghai froze in place, never expecting that he had actually said everything!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, calm down. My mind was just muddled just now. What I said wasn't true, it wasn't true at all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Yi Zhonghai was panicking; he had no idea what kind of madness had taken over him to make him say all the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hurriedly waved his hands to deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was impossible for anyone to believe him again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up! Yi Yi Zhonghai, things have reached this point, do you think we'll still believe you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Living in the same place as someone like you makes us feel sick just thinking about it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right, you actually dared to slander Engineer Chen. You have a lot of nerve. Everyone, calm down and see what Engineer Chen thinks!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, everyone was just about to swarm forward and teach Yi Yi Zhonghai a lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering that they had almost offended Chen Tian just now, they hurriedly stood on the opposite side of Yi Yi Zhonghai.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Can you lower the price, or maybe not release him right now, just let him come out a bit sooner, is that okay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once he comes out, I'll give you the money, 200 yuan, is that okay?\" The Second Aunt's head was spinning; she deeply realized that only Chen Tian could save her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to test Chen Tian's bottom line to see if she could settle this with 200 yuan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think that's possible? I've already said the conditions are set, stop talking nonsense to me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You need to be clear that the crime Liu Liu Haizhong committed is not an ordinary one; it's misappropriation of public property, and at such a special time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm afraid he won't be released for two or three years. If you still can't make up your mind, don't waste everyone's time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tian was getting impatient and was about to show her the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Aunt was hesitant; she now completely understood that he was a total hypocrite!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the entire Sihe Academy, no one could help her except Yang Tian. Hearing that Liu\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Haizhong would take two or three years to be released, the Second Aunt panicked completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay... okay then, the house is yours! You must help me get our man out as soon as possible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of hesitation, the Second Aunt finally made up her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the situation at home, if the Second Uncle wasn't released for another two or three years, she might starve to death!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Aunt thought she would give the house to Chen Tian first to save Liu Liu Haizhong, and then find a way to get the house back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Li was incredibly surprised; she never expected the Second Aunt to be truly willing to give up the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have to know, this house had been passed down through generations in Liu Liu Haizhong's family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Liu Liu Haizhong came back, there would likely be a lot of trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, once the house was in Chen Tian's hands, even if Liu Liu Haizhong offered another 500 yuan to redeem it, Chen Tian wouldn't give it back!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to say, from now on, Liu Liu Haizhong and his family would have to pay Chen Tian rent every month to live there!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, once the paperwork is done tomorrow, I'll have someone release Liu Liu Haizhong!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tian nodded and agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, Liu Liu Haizhong's situation was ultimately because he had no one to back him up at the rolling mill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as Chen Tian stepped in and put in a good word for Liu Liu Haizhong, the rolling mill would drop the charges against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, okay, okay, thank you so much! You must help me get our man out as soon as possible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Aunt was still dazed; she never expected that she had actually sold her own house to Chen Tian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn't realized that Chen Tian had no intention of selling the house again, even if Liu Liu Haizhong offered all his money, it would be the same!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the Second Aunt left, Yu Li couldn't help but ask Chen Tian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Tian, why are you so interested in their house? Renting a house doesn't cost that much now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you have 500 yuan, you could easily rent a house anywhere in this Sihe Academy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Li clearly didn't understand why Chen Tian had a soft spot for Liu Liu Haizhong's house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She also thought it would be more cost-effective for Chen Tian to just take the 500 yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tian shook his head without saying anything, and his hands started to become restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several newspaper offices in Si Jiu City started to get busy, clearly all to report on the explosive increase in production at Chen Tian's steel mill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tian's steel production was simply too terrifying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This explosive news made other newspaper offices in Si Jiu City unable to stay calm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry up, everyone! Such big news must not let other newspaper offices beat us to it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Especially in the article, you must clearly write out Chen Tian's achievements.
