The numerous humiliating words were incredibly ironic to Liang Siji, making him wish he could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
Instead of the scorching heat of summer, he was drenched in sweat, beads of perspiration trickling down his forehead along the obvious lines, his heart pounding like a drum, and waves of accusations left him dizzy.
Liu Qingxi did not stop; instead, she addressed the greatest doubt in people's minds: "At this point, it is quite clear that you have gone to great lengths to frame me. I wonder if you have used such tactics to crush your competitors in the past?"
Instantly, people's gazes shifted even more. No one expected someone with such a notorious reputation would have such a vile heart.
Those who had previously worked with Liang Siji felt uneasy; would their houses be tampered with?
After all, no one wanted to associate with someone so malicious.
Liang Siji trembled all over; the image he had built over the years was ruined just like that. And why? Suddenly, a wave of venomous hatred surged from his heart; it was all her doing.
"Young Lady, do you really have to be so aggressive?"
"Ah, I have never seen someone so brazen after making a mistake. By the way, everyone might be curious about the blood that just appeared. Let me explain: this is a Feng Shui remedy for housewarming. Using black dog blood at the foundation of a newly built house can ward off evil spirits.
Oh, and placing it at the right time greatly benefits future wealth. I've already discussed this with Boss Qian. Right, Boss Qian?" Liu Qingxi turned her head toward Boss Qian.
Boss Qian nodded repeatedly: "Oh yes, Miss Liu mentioned this to me early on. When I was invited here just now, I thought something serious had happened; it was just a bag of black dog blood."
Only then did everyone realize why Liang Siji's people had fished out only an oilcloth bag. It seemed that Liang Siji's intense reaction indicated he had something to hide.
Now it appeared that with evidence in hand, Liang Siji was indeed the mastermind behind it all.
"I will never hire such a person again; it's too disgusting."
"Exactly! Miss Liu is building her house well, and he jumps out in jealousy to cause trouble. Such character is truly unworthy of praise."
Liang Siji's face turned from green to red; he could no longer show his face in the industry. This was even more terrifying than being thrown into prison, especially for someone who valued fame and fortune so highly.
Liu Qingxi knew his character well and deliberately revealed the truth before everyone: "As everyone knows, building a house requires attention to Feng Shui, and I considered this during my design."
The house is named Flowing Villa, nestled by the mountains and water, with an open view in front and backed by a great mountain, symbolizing having a strong support. Additionally, there is a black dog blood charm in front to ward off evil, ensuring that no sinister events will occur in the future.
People nodded in agreement, finding Liu Qingxi's reasoning quite sensible: "So it was just a false alarm, that's great! I'm not like that Miss Liu."
This person believed Liu Qingxi from beginning to end and did not join in the insults when others were criticizing.
"Um, Miss Liu, sorry to take up your time; we won't interfere anymore. My apologies!" This person swayed uncertainly, feeling quite embarrassed now that the truth was out.
Liu Qingxi held no resentment towards these confused ordinary folks; after all, they were mostly simple-minded individuals who could hardly withstand the manipulations of Liang Siji, the old fox.
As for why things developed this way, it was entirely due to the unintentional discovery by the village youth that reminded her. The subsequent surveillance of the fat man and others revealed the seriousness of the issue.
It was this crisis that alerted Liu Qingxi, allowing her to take advantage of it. She skillfully utilized Feng Shui principles for warding off evil spirits and also constructed pillars in the riverbed, which required some support anyway, cleverly using those individuals' schemes against them.
However, the location of the collapse was calculated; during construction, they deliberately created the illusion of many people working when in fact their standing direction was exactly opposite to where it would fall.
Thus, when the fat man and the thin man saw their plan succeed, they hurriedly went to take credit and claim their rewards. Ren Qiangsheng's incitement prompted Liang Siji to jump into action quickly.
This led to subsequent events. To prevent further disgusting developments from the other side, Liu Qingxi had already communicated with Boss Qian early on and made preparations for a countermeasure, resulting in a reversal of fortunes.
With the truth revealed, there was no need for the Construction Team to halt work, and Liu Qingxi would not be driven out of Biqi Town. At this moment, it was Liang Siji who should be worried.
Just as people were savoring the excitement of this dramatic turn of events, Liang Siji suddenly made a bold declaration: "It's not me! I'm not the mastermind."
"What?" Was there really such a situation?
Behind the crowd, a man in his thirties felt his heart race. The earlier back-and-forth argument with Liu Qingxi had left him terrified; Liang Siji's reputation was ruined without bringing down Liu Qingxi.
Now he saw no further value in this situation: "This time it really worked out for him." Just as he was about to leave in search of a more suitable opportunity, Liang Siji shouted loudly.
"It was Ren Qiangsheng! He did it all! Really! I didn't want to do this; he kept pushing me to go along with it." Faced with this situation, he panicked too. But since they had planned together, why should he bear all the blame alone?
"Why? Even if I die, I want to take someone down with me."
"Ren Qiangsheng?" Liu Qingxi savored the name, feeling it was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't recall where she had seen it or when she had heard it.
Biqi Town had never heard such a strange name.
"Really, he came to find me. Liu Qingxi ruined his life; he wants revenge. He seduced me because my business was taken by Miss Liu. At first, I refused, but who knew I would later be bewitched?"
Liang Siji shouted into the crowd, "He must be nearby, yes, nearby!" He stumbled forward like a nightmare.
When Ren Qiangsheng heard his name mentioned, he panicked and tried to leave. However, the sudden movement of the previously quiet crowd made him very conspicuous.
"Catch him, it's him!"
Now he couldn't escape even if he wanted to. Liang Siji laughed maniacally, dragging him forward with all his might.
"It's him, hehehe, it's him; it's not my fault."
Liu Qingxi looked at the man in front of her. He was in his thirties, with slight wrinkles on his face, fair skin, an average build, but the lewdness in his eyes made her very uncomfortable.
That's right; she remembered!
