Lin Wanli had said that once the mother and daughter of the Ye Family came to watch the show, it would be a public execution.
Now, the execution would officially begin.
At the banquet, classical music was soothing and refreshing. At this moment, the host of Natural asked the staff to bring over an oil painting.
However, this oil painting did not have any beauty. At first glance, it even looked a little dark. The entire oil painting was dark grey and blue, with only a touch of dark red in the lower right corner. There seemed to be three figures in the oil painting. A man and a woman were lying on the ground, dragging a woman who was bending over. There was a pool of blood beside the womanâs feet. However, this was only a similarity in spirit, because the painting only used the simplest lines to outline a suffocating and depressing story.
âThis painting is not a world-famous painting, nor is it by a famous artist. It was created a year ago by the chief designer of Natural and a friend. It is also the inspiration for todayâs show. This painting had no name, so the content of the discussion could be freely expressed by the distinguished guests. He wondered how everyone would feel when they saw this painting again after watching the show.â
âIt looks like heâs expressing his kinship.â A customer thought for a moment and said, âBut this woman carrying a heavy load doesnât look like a mother.â
A man and a woman dragging a woman were easily understood as a mother dragging a pair of children.
âIt doesnât seem like it. This painting doesnât have the feeling of painstaking effort. The woman lying on the ground seems to be stabbing the woman who dragged them.â Another customer said, âCombined with Daxiuâs discussion of death and resurrection, and the meaning of Red Spider Lily, I think itâs more likely that these two people betrayed women.â
Hearing the guestâs analysis, Ye Zhenzhenâs expression turned into one of shock and panic.
It was evident that she had brought her and Zhou Tingyang in, but was this a coincidence?
âNot only does the woman have a knife in her hand, but her other hand is also pulling the womanâs trousers. Look carefully. The womanâs pants are a little down at the waist. What does this mean? The woman lying down was going to ruin the reputation of the woman standing.â
âThe man grabbed the womanâs ankle with one hand and hugged the woman lying down with the other. Isnât this the emotional entanglement of three people?â
âThatâs not right. I feel that the woman standing there has no emotional pain, only a strong desire to live.â
The guests all started discussing enthusiastically.
Ye Zhenzhen was flustered by the details of the analysis, and her mind gradually went blank. Because it was too similar, this painting was completely insinuating the matter between her, Lin Wanli, and Zhou Tingyang.
âMiss Ye.â At this moment, the host of Natural suddenly pointed at Ye Zhenzhen. âI did say that I wanted to make things difficult for you. Since you can see a soul-stirring story from the show, how do you feel after seeing this painting?â
Ye Zhenzhen was immersed in her own thoughts and did not hear the hostâs words at all.
âMiss Ye?â
Ye Weiyin quickly leaned on Ye Zhenzhenâs elbow to help her regain her senses.
âAh?â
The emcee repeated what she had just said, but it made Ye Zhenzhen break out in cold sweat. âI⦠I thinkâ¦â
Ye Zhenzhenâs mind was blank because she had never thought about what would happen if the things she had done were made public one day. Therefore, the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. The more she thought about it, the more guilty she felt. She was even tongue-tied.
Ye Zhenzhenâs face turned red, but no one could save her. The guests were all unusually quiet and wanted to know how much more she could make people speechless.
Someone had seen Qiao Jiawei leave just now. So, did this mother-daughter pair drive Qiao Jiawei away in anger?
âWhatâs with her aggrieved face? Someone bullied her?â A customer asked in confusion.
The host of Natural was a little confused. Why was his question so difficult to answer?
âSheâs not in a difficult situation. Sheâs just been poked by an unspeakable secret. Canât you see that? Who did the three people in this painting look like? Who was it corresponding to? Coupled with the various things that happened to Lin Wanli after she returned to the country, it was not difficult to understand why she had such a reaction, right?â Someone held a glass of wine and looked at Ye Zhenzhen mockingly.
âYou mean her, Lin Wanli, and that guy from the Zhou family?â
The guests waited for a few more minutes, but Ye Zhenzhenâs eyes were still red. She did not seem to be able to say anything. Those who did not know better would think she was bullied at the scene.
The host of Natural was confused and was about to help when Lin Xueyi suddenly said, âNatural advocates following nature. We have always been walking the path of warmth and love. For many years, we have liked to integrate with nature. This is indeed the first time we are researching life.
However, I wasnât surprised because Red Spider Lily was also a member of the natural world.â
âMiss Ye just said that she saw a soul-stirring story on the show. Excuse me for being rude, but did you watch the show seriously?â
Faced with Lin Xueyiâs sudden sharp question, Ye Zhenzhen was once again confused.
âOr perhaps, you donât understand it at all? There were no soul-stirring stories here, only withering and death.â
In reality, Lin Xueyi was still rather calm during the big show. Although she sighed at the theme of the show after watching it, she never thought that it would have anything to do with Lin Wanli.
As a mother, she could not help but vent her anger at the murderer who stabbed her daughter.
âWhy would someone like you appear here?â Lin Xueyi finally asked, âAppearing at a place where you shouldnât appear and doing something thatâs not honourable and generous, youâre making things difficult for yourself and embarrassing others. â
âWhat right do you have to lecture my daughter?â Ye Weiyin endured for a whole night and finally gave up. âWho are you? What qualifications? The Lin family no longer has a place for you. Didnât you use the Lin familyâs light to appear on this show?â
Hearing this, everyone present laughed.
Even the person in charge of Natural was so angry that he laughed. He stood up and said, âMadam Ye, you really like to put gold on your own face.â
âThe reason why Madam Lin is standing here is not because her surname is
Lin, but because Miss Lin Wanli is a shareholder of Natural.â
The person-in-charge said in a protective and anxious voice, with a sharp and angry tone.
When everyone heard this, they were quite shocked.
This was because they had never felt that the Lin family mother and daughter were marginalised. Although the mother and daughter had both been down and out, they had never been unsophisticated. Their beauty, self-restraint, and other aspects were all within the recognition of the wealthy circle. Not to mention, Lin Wanliâs career was still going smoothly. They just did not expect her to be involved in Natural.
âHuamei and Natural are famous brands in the fashion industry.
âYou guys are not welcome, understand?â
