The big screen clearly showed that A Miao’s hand moved only slightly. It looked as if she had been frightened by Bai Lu’s actions and her hand had not touched the plate, causing to be overturned.

“How… how is it possible?” Bai Lu was staring incredulously at the screen.

In the video, she took the plate and waved it twice, then tilted it toward herself. Then the cake flew at her…

“What are you doing?” Bai Youran asked her in a low voice, his tone was very bad.

Bai Lu shot her a glare. “Impossible! At that time, I clearly felt that the plate was pushed. Otherwise, how could the cake have flown so far?”

Yes… everyone present felt strange. But no matter how she said it, A Miao did not move from beginning to end; it could only have been Bai Lu herself accidentally.

“Apologize.” Shen Xinglan looked at them coldly.

Xia Wan was the first to react. “Oh, it was just a misunderstanding!” She gave Bai Lu a pat. “Lulu, really, why are you so careless?”

Bai Lu held her fist tightly and stared at the playback on the big screen over and over again. “Impossible… impossible…”

“Don’t say it again, everyone is watching.” Xia Wan whispered in her ear, “There will be plenty of opportunities to sort her out in the future. Now is not the time.”

Bai Youran also gave a meaningful look at Bai Lu, who gritted her teeth and looked at Shen Xinglan suddenly and said, “I’m sorry, I misunderstood.”

“I’m not the one you misunderstood.” Shen Xinglan’s eyes were cold. “Or does Miss Bai have a memory problem?”

Xia Wan, afraid of Bai Lu getting angry, quickly interrupted. “A Miao, look…”

“What do I see?” A Miao had been smiling the entire time. At this time, she was smiling even more. Her eyes looked at Xia Wan as if they contained water. “I am waiting for her to apologize!”

Then, she found that the man next to her were inexplicable cold and heavy, even Bai Youran opposite her perceived it. And thinking that Shen Xinglan was about to get angry, he hurriedly pushed Bai Lu.

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I misunderstood you.” Bai Lu took a deep breath and stared at A Miao. “Today was my fault. I’ll treat you to dinner as an apology later.”

A Miao shrugged her shoulders. “Let’s talk about it later!”

“Okay, okay!” Bai Youran beckoned. “Let’s not crowd around. The beauties will be asked to leave by others right now!”

There was a burst of laughter around and people quickly dispersed as if this farce had never happened. As for how they would discuss it privately, that was beyond anyone’s control.

In a word, today’s events would soon spread throughout the upper-class society, and they would have their own comments on who was right and who was wrong.

“I’m not feeling well. I’ll go back first.” Bai Lu said goodbye to Bai Youran and Xia Wan and left the venue. Xia Wan curled her lip and continued to go to the dinner party with Bai Youran.

Outside the hotel, Bai Lu met Ji Xue.

“Did you just watch my embarrassment?” Bai Lu was in a bad mood and her tone was naturally quite blunt.

Ji Xue gave her a blank look. “Don’t be angry with me, I am angry too!”

Bai Lu found her car and Ji Xue sat down in the co-pilot seat. “I didn’t expect Shen Xinglan to really like her, clearly he…”

“What happened to him?” Bai Lu started the car and glanced at him.

“Nothing.” Ji Xue shook his head. “What are you going to do? Can we just forget it?”

The voice of Bai Lu immediately rose. “Forget it? You’re dreaming!”

“Yes, it’s a pity that you just give it up after giving so much effort to get rid of your foreign boyfriend and coming back.”

Bai Lu did not reply. Only she knew that the man was dead!

Because he refused to break up with her no matter what and vowed that he would follow Bai Lu as long as she returned home, she could not have that, so Bai Lu had to kill him during sex.

Anyway, that guy was just the son of a local ordinary businessman; addicted to drugs and racing, no one would question if he died.

“You don’t have to irritate me.” Bai Lu glanced at Ji Xue. “It’s you. Why does who Shen Xinglan marries have anything to do with you? If I were you and my aunt, I would wish for him to marry A Miao.”

If Shen Xinglan really married a noble daughter, it would not be good for her aunt.

“What my mother means is that he’s better off not marrying anyone.” Ji Xue’s eyes flashed. “In case he has children in the future, the Ji Corp still doesn’t know who he will leave it to!”

Bai Lu laughed coldly. “In my opinion, you are too greedy. Even if that man Ji Zeming dies, he will arrange everything to ensure that you have enough food and clothing.”

“Cousin Bai Lu!” Every time Ji Xue called her cousin, it meant he was laughing at her. “Don’t tease me, what will my dad do? Leave us some houses and some shares so that we can get dividends every year?”

“Besides! Who can guarantee that the Shen Xinglan will listen to a dead man?”

Ji Xue slammed down the car door severely. “He would like to drive us away now.”

“So we are in the same boat!” Bai Lu patted her on the shoulder. “As long as I can marry Shen Xinglan, my aunt will get the Ji family!”

At this time, Shen Xinglan was also preparing to leave the banquet, but Xia Yongqiang, who had waited all night, stopped them.

“Don’t take this evening’s matter to heart. The Bai family are our people.” Xia Yongqiang had a kind smile on his face, just like all the elders who talked to the younger generation.

But these kinds of manners were disgusting in the eyes of A Miao. “Why didn’t you come out before? Now you are a decent man.”

“According to custom, I have already booked a place in the Green Garden for the second day of the month. Don’t forget to come back for dinner. Remember to arrive on time at night!” Xia Yongqiang did not look at A Miao, but spoke to Shen Xinglan.

A Miao just wanted to refuse. Who knew that Shen Xinglan would nod and say, “Yes.”

“OK, then go back to rest quickly!” Xia Yongqiang watched them leave with a full face of smiles.

Back in the car, A Miao frowned. “Why did you promise him?”

“Do you think Xia Yongqiang knew or not you would refuse?” Shen Xinglan put his arm around her and asked.

A Miao thought for a moment and said, “He is like an old fox. He knows I hate the Xia family. Why did he come up and invite me?”

“Because he knew I would promise.”

Shen Xinglan pinched her nose. “How many people will be watching us on the second day of the lunar new year! “If I don’t take you back, the reporters will write about it immediately.”

When the time came, everyone would know that Shen Xinglan did not respect A Miao and would not take her seriously before they got married.

“So Xia Yongqiang calculated that you would promise for me?” A Miao felt nauseous and spat twice. “But… why don’t they think we don’t want to be involved with the Xia family?”

They clearly knew she came back recently and she didn’t consider herself in the Xia family.

“Public opinion can be controlled.” Shen Xinglan had a sarcastic smile. “If you don’t go back, he will naturally make the media report according to his request. Even if some people will be to question it, it will be a small voice that can be ignored.”

A Miao put on a contemptuous look. “Then we’ll eat at home before we go, and I’ll make you handmade noodles.”

“And tomorrow, you don’t have to expect to eat well when we return to the Ji’s house.”

Thinking about it this way, A Miao thought that she and Shen Xinglan were really pitiful. They could not even have a good meal at the Spring Festival. She was feeling sorry for herself, and there was a slight sting in her ear.

“Why?” A Miao pushed him aside and thought he was going to play like a hooligan again.

Shen Xinglan was afraid of hurting her and had to loosen his mouth. “Later outside, don’t casually laugh.”

“Did I laugh casually?” A Miao thought he was baffling.

“You were laughing when you talked to Bai Lu.”

A Miao did not respond.

“I was mocking her. Mocking her, don’t you see?” Lacking the strength to hold up her forehead, A Miao acted like she was dying.

Seeing her like that, Shen Xinglan felt she was being very cute and kissed her a few times and then said, “Just make fun of her with your eyes and don’t laugh.”

“What she could do if the lunatic became worse again?”

“Hi!” At the gate of the Shen family villa, Le Yi smiled and waved at them. “Why are you back so soon?”

A Miao was getting out of the car, but her eyes were fixed behind Le Yi’s back.

“Haha! He is embarrassed to see you.” Le Yi slipped Ding V out of the room and said, “Speak, don’t be dumb.”

Ding V stood there like a wooden pestle and Shen Xinglan gave him a look. “Let’s talk about it inside.”

The few of them sat in the living room. Le Yi offered to make tea for everyone when Ding V suddenly stood up.

“I’ve already remembered your smell, and next time I won’t smell it wrong even if you are splashed with dung.”

No one said anything.

“Haha!” A Miao lifted the corners of her mouth. “I don’t think I’ll have the chance to be splashed by that stuff.”

Ding V snapped a box onto the table.

“Wh… what?” A Miao was frightened by this momentum and felt that there had to be something terrible inside.

Shen Xinglan frowned and opened it and finding a wooden ring inside, immediately his face became black.

“Do you want to die?” He asked hazily.

“What do you mean by preempting me before I give the ring to A Miao?”

“This is a miniature bomb. If you press it hard and throw it outward, it will explode.” Ding V explained it very seriously. “Its power can blow at least three people to pieces.”

A Miao thought that it was really terrible…

“Little V!” Le Yi coughed twice. “Are you sure this thing is not dangerous?”

“No.” Ding V made a firm promise. “I managed to get it.” Then he looked at A Miao with a serious face again. “In case I catch a cold and don’t smell you, you can throw this at me.”

A Miao said, “You talk, I’m going upstairs.”

“A Miao…”

“Don’t call me, I just want to be quiet.”

In the City S police department, Ling Lang was watching the video of an auction. She had already watched it more than 10 times, but she did not have any clue.

“Boss!” A big man with a height of 2 meters and a magnificent figure came in and said, “Do you want to see something?”

Ling Lang saw him holding a U drive. “What was recorded?”

“Didn’t you tell your brothers to pay attention to the Ji president? They went to a banquet today and had an accident.” The big guy plugged the USB stick into the computer.

The picture was exactly what happened when A Miao and Bai Lu had their conflict. Ling Lang frowned when she looked at the cake flying at Bai Lu.

“Are you surprised also?” The big guy pressed pause. “Normally, a cake cannot fly that high without some external force.”

Ling Lang took out the U drive. “Make a mother tape.”

On the evening of the first day of the New Year, Shen Xinglan and A Miao went to old Ji’s house.
