Me! The cannon fodder male supporting role, it's reasonable for me to torture the protagonist t

"No need to look for her. Qianqian left. I asked her to help me ask you out."

Xia Yan poured a glass of wine and pushed it to the other side of the coffee table. "Since you're here, let's have a drink."

She went to Baili to find him during the day, and now she asked Yun Qianqian to ask him out. What exactly did Xia Yan want to see him for?

"How much do you know about my kidnapping five years ago?" Xia Yan took a sip of wine and asked straight to the point.

But Tang Xiao was shocked when he heard this, "Have you been kidnapped?"

five years ago?

They were graduating from high school at that time. Was this something that happened while they were still in a relationship?

Tang Xiao had no recollection of this at all. At that time, his second uncle had just found him and, upon learning that he was in love, he advised him to break up and focus more on avenging his father rather than dwelling on trivial love affairs.

He had less and less contact with Xia Yan, and they officially broke up after Xia Yan went abroad.

I had no idea that Xia Yan had been kidnapped at that time.

Xia Yan looked at Tang Xiao with an inquiring gaze, wanting to see clearly whether he was pretending not to know or he really didn't know.

He raised his head and took a sip of wine, then twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Since you said you don't know, then I'll believe you."

"You...who kidnapped you?" Tang Xiao asked.

"My kidnappers have already been arrested, but I recently learned that it was a man named Tang Baiyan who ordered him to kidnap me."

Xia Yan raised her head and drank the wine. Ignoring Tang Xiao's shocked look, she picked up her bag and left.

Since Tang Xiao doesn't know about this, she only needs to deal with Tang Baiyan.

When Tang Xiao came to his senses, Xia Yan had already left the box.

Even if a gambler has turned over a new leaf, it is still difficult for him to quit because of the excessive dopamine pleasure generated by the stimulation.

With just a little temptation, they will continue to repeat the same mistakes.

Tang Baiyan spent a lot of money in the casino. From winning at the beginning to losing in the end, everything changed in just three days.

After three days, Tang Baiyan lost most of Baili Company's revenue in the past few years.

"It was Xia Dong. It was Xia Dong who asked someone to take me to the casino. He was taking revenge on me."

"I can't just let it go like this. I want to settle accounts with him."

Tang Xiao ignored Tang Baiyan's clamor and asked the finance department to shut down all shared accounts between Tang Baiyan and the company so that he could not spend a penny of the company's money.

Doesn't he know why Xia Dong treated him like that?

"And Yun Yi, after he fired you from the Yun Group, he must have investigated us. He was the one who told Xia Dong that it was me who hired someone to kidnap Xia Yan. It must have been him."

Tang Baiyan was so confident in what he said that in fact he actually guessed 95% correctly.

However, Yun Yi did not tell Xia Dong, but only Xia Yan.

After all, that was her privacy, and he didn't tell anyone except her.

Tang Xiao remained silent and did not express any opinion.

Tang Baiyan was still talking nonstop when suddenly Tang Xiao's cell phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number, but Tang Xiao's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

"Mr. Tang, the hospital has issued a critical illness notice to Aunt Su. Can you come over?" It was Ling Mo's voice.

-

"Mr. Yun, when Aunt Su was awake yesterday, she asked me to give this to you."

In the hospital corridor, Su You was temporarily out of danger after rescue, but she still needed to be observed in the intensive care unit for another day.

Ling Mo handed an envelope to Yun Yi and said solemnly.

"okay, I get it."

Yun Yi took the envelope and turned to leave. When passing by the emergency stairs, he noticed a black corner of clothes out of the corner of his eye.

It’s Tang Xiao.

He finally came.

After leaving the hospital, Yun Yi opened the envelope, which contained a bank key.

Tang Xiao's father was a researcher during his lifetime and made many advanced and contributive research achievements.

He died of suicide after being caught up in a plagiarism scandal.

What is deposited in the bank are the research projects he had completed during his lifetime.

-

"I don't like the fact that your father is always in the lab. He can only be counted on one hand the number of days he's at home each year, and he doesn't have any money."

"It just so happened that at that time, an institution abroad took a fancy to his research results and wanted to hire him with a high salary, but no matter how I persuaded him, he just wouldn't agree."

After Su You came out of the intensive care unit, she woke up and saw Tang Xiao, and she decided to tell him everything.

If I don't say it this time, I'm afraid she will never have the chance to say it again.

"He said his experiment was about to succeed, and after a big fight with me, he moved directly to the lab. But half a year later, before his experimental results came out, his paper was reported for plagiarism."

"The results of the plagiarism investigation had not yet come out, and there was an explosion in his laboratory. His experiment failed. I couldn't stand the pointing of fingers outside, so I filed for divorce."

"The day before he divorced me, he committed suicide by jumping off the rooftop of his laboratory."

Su You lay on the hospital bed and slowly told everyone what happened that year.

But these things were completely different from what Tang Baiyan had told him.

Reporting plagiarism of papers, blowing up the laboratory, and forcing his father to commit suicide by jumping off the building, all these were done by Yun Yi.

What both people said seemed to be true, like a Rashomon.

Tang Xiao no longer knew who was telling the truth and who was lying.

"Yun Yi was indeed a classmate of your father, but at that time he had already applied to study abroad, and your father stayed in school to continue his studies. There was no conflict of interest between the two of them. Why did he report it?"

Su You didn't understand why Tang Xiao couldn't figure out the reason behind this.

She didn't know who reported it, but she was sure it wasn't Yun Yi.

-

'Ding……'

Yun Yi looked at the transfer notification on his phone and raised his eyebrows slightly.

In the past few days, Xia Dong has transferred several sums of money to him.

All of them were lost by Tang Baiyan in the casino.

Tang Xiao took advantage of his position in the Yun family to help Baili make money. Now, after a circle, the money is back in his hands, even more than before.

This deal is still a good deal.

Yun Yi thought about it and asked the driver to send Yun Qianqian an invitation to the auction.

When you earn money, you should spend it. This is a good time to see if there is anything you like.

Yun Qianqian was naturally happy to accompany him. She made an appointment with a stylist in advance, and after her hair was done, she went with Yun Yi.

In previous occasions like this, the original owner always asked his assistant to come over. He would just look at the catalog in the office, mark the ones he liked and ask his assistant to take the photos.

Now Yun Yi wants to slow down and spend more time enjoying life.

"This good-looking."

Yun Qianqian pointed to a pair of bracelets in the brochure and said.

She didn't even bother to read the detailed description, she just knew that the bracelet was beautiful and would definitely look better on her wrist.

"If you want it, buy it. You can raise the sign later."

Yun Yi casually ticked a few items that interested him on the brochure and handed it to the assistant next to him.

"Boss Yun, long time no see."

Suddenly, a male voice came from behind.

Yun Yi turned around and saw that it was Tang Baiyan, with Tang Xiao beside him.
