Yu Shuyan noticed the hint of mockery that flashed in Wen Lang's eyes.

A slight tension settled in my heart; I had a feeling that he seemed to have something to rely on.

Could he be so sure that if they weren't related by blood, it would be impossible for their blood to be compatible?

No, unless he has some special means, he wouldn't be so certain.

Yu Shuyan's heart sank slightly, but she said sarcastically:

"I really am grateful for your kindness."

Cui Rongxing coldly swept his gaze over Wen Lang, then looked at Yu Shuyan:

"Yu Shuyan, just tell me how you want to prove it. I will arrange it for you."

Yu Shuyan smiled gratefully:

"Then thank you very much, Lord Cui. I need to randomly select a few people who are not related to me by blood, and then..."

Their blood, mixed together. If any of it has mingled, then it proves that what I said is true.

Cui Rongxing nodded:

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now!"

Wen Lang suddenly spoke:

"Wait a moment."

Cui Rongxing frowned:

"What else do you want?"

Wen Lang laughed:

"Lord Cui, please don't misunderstand. I just feel that this matter concerns the reputation of my Wen family. Therefore, I hope that I can take charge of all the preparations."

Yu Shuyan's heart skipped a beat:

As expected, Wen Lang must have had a plan.

Cui Rongxing glanced at Yu Shuyan, noticing her slightly furrowed brows, and immediately said:

"That's not right. You're worried about others doing something sabotage it, but don't you also worry about..."

"can!"

Before Cui Rongxing could finish speaking, Yu Shuyan had already spoken.

Cui Rongxing was taken aback and looked at Yu Shuyan:

"Yu Shuyan, what did you say?"

Yu Shuyan smiled apologetically:

"Lord Cui, rest assured, just agree to his request. Otherwise, when the facts are presented, he'll just spout a bunch of nonsense."

Cui Rongxing thought to himself that Yu Shuyan was too naive. Since Wen Lang said that, he must have ill intentions.

But since she had said that, he couldn't say anything more and could only nod.

"Okay, then let's do as he says."

As she spoke, she looked at Wen Lang:

"However, to be fair, I will send someone to accompany you throughout the entire process and help you with all the preparations."

In his heart, Wen Lang secretly laughed at Wen Lang's foolishness and also secretly mocked Cui Rongxing's naivety.

What he has in his hands is not something that can be discovered by one person supervising.

A gentle smile:

"That's how it should be."

A look of worry flashed in Cui Rongxing's eyes. He glanced disapprovingly at Yu Shuyan, but then gave an order to the constables behind him:

"You will accompany Young Master Wen to select people and prepare water bowls. Remember, the people must be chosen randomly, and you must keep a close eye on the preparation of the water bowls throughout the process."

The bailiff nodded:

"Yes!"

Randomly, he walked up to Wen Lang:

"Young Master Wen, please!"

Wen Lang gave Yu Shuyan a mocking smile, then turned around with the constable to prepare their things.

Cui Rongxing sighed softly:

"Yu Shuyan, you~"

Looking at Yu Shuyan, with that calm, faint smile, he still didn't say the words that were about to come out.

Soon, eight men and women and sixteen bowls of water were ready.

Cui Rongxing looked at the yamen runner:

"They're all random, is that alright?"

The yamen runner hurriedly bowed and said:

"Don't worry, sir, I will supervise the whole process, there will be no problem."

Cui Rongxing nodded, glanced at the sixteen bowls of water, and frowned, saying:

"Isn't it supposed to be a random pairing? How can sixteen bowls of water be enough? Go quickly and prepare some more bowls of water."

Clearly, he felt that with more possibilities, a miracle might happen.

Yu Shuyan glanced at it, clearly impatient, yet with a hint of confident mockery, a smile playing at the corners of her lips:

"No need for that, Lord Cui. I think sixteen bowls of water is more than enough."

Cui Rongxing gave her a meaningful look:

Are you sure?

Yu Shuyan nodded with a smile:

"I am sure."

Wen Lang glanced at the gently trembling water in the bowl, his eyes deep, and whispered:

"madness!"

While he was preparing the water, he subtly added the powder he had prepared to deal with Yu Shuyan into it.

No matter whose blood it is, it can never be compatible, even if they are biological father and son.

A mocking smile played on his lips.

"So, may we begin?"

Looking at his hypocritical and ugly face, Yu Shuyan instantly realized that he had definitely tampered with the water.

However, if she were to raise the issue of water quality now, she would have no evidence to support it.

Even if he really wanted to, he would prepare the water again.

However, since the constables couldn't see through his tricks, no matter how many times they prepared, it would be impossible for them to detect it.

Although she possessed the divine medical diagram, she didn't know what he had put in the water.

Wen Lang saw that she remained silent for a long time, seemingly lost in her own thoughts.

He sneered inwardly:

Weren't you supposed to be very powerful? Weren't you supposed to be so aggressive? What's wrong with you now? Are you scared?

late!

You bastard, you dare to go against me? I'll make you suffer terribly.

Originally, I was worried that you would make Yuan Niangzi reveal that it was I who cast the spell.

But now, whatever you ask Yuan Niangzi to say, I can do it, because you resent me for revealing your true colors as a harlot.

And, the relationship between you and Lady Yuan, where Lady Yuan obeys your every command.

Come and tell everyone with confidence that she is framing you, that she was instructed by you, and that it is a vicious and despicable frame-up.

The more I thought about it, the more pleased I became, and the more I felt that the frustration in my heart had eased considerably.

Their smiles became more genuine:

"Yu Shuyan, what are you worried about? Of course, if you admit now that you were just making things up, it will save you a lot of unnecessary trouble."

As he spoke, he looked around:

"Of course, we shouldn't waste anyone's time!"

Yu Shuyan watched as his smugness became undisguised, and her eyes betrayed her disgust and revulsion.

However, his tense expression suddenly relaxed, transforming into a calm and mocking smile:

"Since you find it troublesome, then let's find a less troublesome way!"

Wen Lang's expression suddenly darkened, and his voice also became somber:

"Yu Shuyan, what are you doing? Are you trying to make us all play house with you?! Why are you always acting on a whim!"

Among the onlookers, some began to murmur:

"Could it be that Yu Shuyan is really making a last-ditch effort?"

"Hmm, I think so. Otherwise, why would they drag their feet and come up with one idea after another?"

"Sigh, it seems like having an illegitimate child is a done deal."

"Sigh, we actually believed her. She's such a good actress!"

······

Listening to the crowd's discussion, Cui Rongxing couldn't help but remind them:

"Yu Shuyan, are you sure your new method will work? If not, perhaps you should think about it some more!"

Yu Shuyan naturally knew that he meant well, but she gave him a grateful smile.

"Don't worry, Lord Cui, my method is still the same."

"It's just that it's simpler and more effective than the previous method!"

When she said her last words, her gaze was clearly smiling as she looked at Wen Lang.
