After learning that Sun Jian had dealt with all the people he sent out, Sun Lei had been in panic, fearing that Sun Jian would deal with him if he thought he had ulterior motives.
He was not completely afraid of death, he was just worried that if he died like this, not only would there be no way to avenge his father, but even the Sun family would be destroyed at the hands of Sun Jian.
However, Qiao Xue's words now woke him up.
Yes, his behavior is not surprising.
Sun Jian has always been suspicious by nature, and it is absolutely impossible for him to really trust him just because of his previous obedience.
Regardless of whether he had acted like this or not, Sun Jian would have suspected her of having second thoughts.
If that's the case, he might as well make it a little more obvious.
It doesn't matter whether it's testing, deliberately looking for trouble to quarrel with Sun Jian, or even secretly trying to win over the elders.
As long as he behaves more obviously and childishly, his position will be safer.
Because he was the only one who made Sun Jian feel that he was stupid and incompetent.
Sun Jiancai would think that he could completely control him.
Only in this way, what he wants to do next will be completely unexpected by Sun Jian.
On the contrary, the more well-behaved and obedient he behaves, the more Sun Jian will suspect that there is something wrong with him and the more defensive he will be against him.
Thinking of this, Sun Lei couldn't help but feel enlightened.
"Okay! I didn't expect Elder Qiao to have such a scheme. I thought you only knew how to practice swordsmanship!"
Qiao Xue's reputation among high-end aristocratic families is not low, but along with her high abilities, she also has the attributes of being a swordsman and having low emotional intelligence.
Looking at it now, Qiao Xue is not completely crazy.
Hearing Sun Lei's words, Qiao Xue couldn't help but roll her eyes, with an obvious look of disgust flashing across her face.
She is indeed a swordsman, and her emotional intelligence is not very high, but she is not stupid.
Not only is she not stupid, she is also smarter than these people who think they are smart.
She just sees things more clearly, doesn't like to be conceited with others, and has to be straightforward in everything she does, which makes her appear to have low emotional intelligence.
But in fact, she had a pretty good guess as to who these people were thinking about.
Otherwise, she would not have put down all her old grudges and surrendered directly to Yang Tian even after knowing that the destruction of the Qiao family had something to do with Yang Tian.
Except for some issues that are unforgivable in principle, she can put all other minor issues behind her and put the future of the Qiao family first!
Speaking of which, Sun Lei is really not stupid. If he were stupid, he would not have thought of the problems.
He just had too many distracting thoughts in his mind, so when he encountered a problem, he didn't know what to choose.
He and Qiao Xue are like two completely opposite sides. It's hard to tell who is sadder.
"Sun Wen will stay with me for now."
Just as Qiao Xue lowered her head in thought, Yang Tian had already finalized the next plan with Sun Lei.
"Other people can't go back. It would be a little strange if he was the only one left."
"I know."
Sun Lei nodded and was not surprised.
Yang Tian might have a reason for saying this, but he felt it was also because Yang Tian wanted to take Sun Wen as a hostage.
However, since he has chosen tiger fur, he is not afraid of this.
He believed that as long as Sun Jian was not punished, Yang Tian would not touch his people.
