Yan Xu looked at Long Ge's expression, then at his daughter's slightly distorted face, and his uneasiness grew deeper.
"Uncle Yang, there's one more thing I need your help to appraise."
Long Ge pointed at the broken inkstone on the tray, saying:
"This is the birthday gift I gave to Elder Mr. Lin, but it was broken by someone. Now they say it's a fake and refuse to compensate. You should take a look if it is fake or not. There are so many people here, I can't let my Long Pavilion's reputation be tarnished, right?"
Upon hearing Long Ge's words, everyone at the scene understood his intention.
Yang Jia was new to all these happenings, so he couldn't possibly have colluded with anyone present.
Long Ge was acquainted with Yang Jia, and if Yang Jia, in the end, appraised the inkstone as fake, then Yan Yufei would definitely claim that Yang Jia and Long Ge conspired to frame her.
