Upon hearing her words, Yan Su relaxed and began to laugh.

Liang felt a little nervous when she heard him smile, but she tried her best to remain calm on the surface.

Now it was her turn to ask him, "What are you laughing at?"

"I thought you suddenly weren't scared anymore, but it turns out you were just bluffing."

Yan Su threw the documents in his hand onto the sofa. "You say you were kicked out by the Liang family? Wasn't this all a scheme you devised from the very beginning?"

Liang Qing's palms were sweating; it seemed she couldn't intimidate Yan Su.

But she hadn't completely given up hope. She steadied herself, glanced at him indifferently, and sneered, "Are you kidding me?"

"Stop pretending with me, Liang Qing."

Yan Su sat down next to her, placed his hand on the sofa behind her, and faced her directly. He stared intently at her face. "After finding out about this matter between your two families, I found it strange. With such a relationship between your two families, how could the Qin family dare to put pressure on your family?"

"No matter what, you are still Qin Xiaojing's half-daughter."

Hearing this, Liang Qing could no longer hold back. She turned her face and glared at Yan Su, "Get lost, don't drag me into this."

Yan Su saw the anger in her eyes, raised an eyebrow and continued, "Later I investigated the matter again and found that the Qin family had not intervened at all. Qin Zhouyu deceived us."

He chuckled, "You two really are a perfect pair of 'accomplices'."

"You're the one who told him to lie to us, aren't you? What a clever 'playing along' tactic."

"But I was stupid back then to ask him to cooperate. No wonder he said he needed a few days to think about it. Now it seems he was stalling for time to tip you off."

Liang Qing broke out in a cold sweat; the situation was more complicated than she had imagined.

Yan Su was still speaking in my ear, “This also made me understand things that I couldn’t understand before.”

“I always felt that kicking you out went a little too smoothly. After all, your father is not someone to be trifled with. To be honest, I never even thought it would succeed.”

"However, whether it succeeds or not is not important to me."

He suddenly reached out and pinched Liang Qing's face, making her turn to look at him. "Because I know that being attacked by the three dogs you thought you had firmly under your control will make you even more upset than being kicked out of the house."

"After all, this means that all the methods you used to try to 'tame' us were ineffective."

"Since you're playing along, then everything makes sense."

"Even your drastic change in temperament and your reconciliation with Song Zhiji and Su Heng makes sense now."

“You haven’t changed at all. You still want to control us, you’ve just changed your methods of ‘taming’ us.”

Liang Qing grabbed his wrist and forcefully pulled his hand away.

Yan Su did not resist and obediently released her cheek.

Liang Qing didn't turn her face away, but looked at him seriously.

Unexpectedly, by sheer chance, Yan Su guessed the truth of the matter quite accurately.

She looked at him, then suddenly reached out and patted his face a few times.

Yan Su suddenly felt a sense of humiliation. Although Liang Qing hadn't used any force, she was clearly humiliating him.

He looked up and, sure enough, met her disdainful gaze. "You have a pretty clear understanding of yourself."

She pinched his face just like he had done, and with a quick movement of her lips, she uttered a single word, "dog."

Yan Su's expression changed, and he was about to pull her hand away when he suddenly stopped. He grinned and said, "Your actions make me even more convinced that I have the upper hand now."

Although Liang Qing was pinching his face, he spoke very clearly.

Liang Qing released her grip and said coldly, "If you dare to expose this, I believe not only will my father come after you, but the Qin family will also not let you off the hook."

Seeing his calm demeanor, she composed herself and forced herself to continue, "Moreover, the tricks you've been secretly playing against Song Zhiji and Su Heng lately have given them the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and kick you while you're down."

She warned, "Aren't you afraid that your family will suffer huge losses because of you?"

Yan Su gradually smiled under her gaze, which made Liang Qing feel uneasy. He replied, "No."

"Are you that confident in your family?"

Liang Qing became increasingly uneasy. Logically speaking, with four families attacking his family, his family would have no power to fight back, yet Yan Su was so confident.

She pondered, unable to understand where his confidence came from.

"It seems you really don't know about the 'chip project'."

Liang Qing frowned and looked at him. He said, "The chip project is a collaboration between our five companies six months ago. We have invested a lot of manpower and money. Each of us is responsible for a process, and we cannot do without the technical support of any one of us."

"Even if I expose this, none of you will dare to take severe action against me. At most, you'll just do something like I did to Song Zhiji and the others."

He shrugged as he spoke, "If that's still not enough, I'll just get kicked out of the house like you. What does it matter?"

He said frankly, "Anyway, I won't starve to death."

“And in the end, this isn’t really my fault,” he said, his smile growing wider. “Your mom and dad have only themselves to blame.”

He sighed with feigned regret, then added maliciously, "It's just a pity for you and Qin Zhouyu. Even though you're not related by blood, if news of your past relationship gets out, what kind of rumors will spread?"

Liang Qing's face turned pale, and her fingernails dug into her palms.

Yan Su continued, "Also, what would Governor Qin do if he knew he was the 'product' of an affair?"

Liang could no longer hold back and squeezed out a question through gritted teeth, "What exactly do you want?"

Yan Su knew that she had made a concession and knew when to stop.

He was silent for a moment, then made a request: "Date me until the day Qin Zhouyu goes to England."

Liang Qing found his suggestion unbelievable; he had gone to such lengths just to force her to date him.

She couldn't help but yell, "Are you crazy?"

Yan Su remained calm in the face of her scolding, saying, "I'm going to take a gamble with you."

"If you can still get them to love you under these circumstances, then you win."

"If you win, I will destroy all the data and keep my mouth shut."

Liang Qing asked, "What if we lose?"

He stared into Liang Qing's eyes and said coldly, "I will reveal everything."

……

Liang Qing finally agreed to Yan Su's conditions.

Whether it's to keep this secret or to win him over, it seems the only option is to agree to his request.

But even though she made the best choice, why is she still so agitated?
