Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Old Master Pang’s forehead when he heard Xi Chenxiao’s words. He had never imagined such a thing happening at his birthday party that Xi Chenxiao’s wife was almost hurt. Fortunately, nothing bad happened but Xi Chenxiao was still very angry. Old Master Pang must quell Xi Chenxiao’s anger, so he replied quickly,

“That’s right, you’re right. We must investigate!”

Old Master Pang’s face turned dark. This matter must be resolved today, or there would be no more Pang family in the capital. Xi Chenxiao definitely could make that happen. For the future of the Pang family, Old Master Pang couldn’t afford to be careless. He ordered the butler,

“Why are you still standing there? Didn’t you hear? Quickly go investigate!”

The butler was also drenched in cold sweat. After all, he knew Xi Chenxiao’s reputation and had seen a few ignorant families disappear without a trace. The same thing also happened to Xi family members who had done wrong. When the butler heard Old Master Pang’s order, he immediately answered respectfully,

“Your subordinate will go now!”

Su Jin looked at the nervous crowd and felt that this was no simple matter. For an influential family like the Pang’s, such a safety hazard shouldn’t exist at a grand birthday party. They would check and re-check. Su Jin scanned the crowd and noticed that Pang Nana was not with the Pang family.

“Grandpa Pang, where’s Pang Nana?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Old Master Pang had been talking to Xi Chenxiao all this while and did not notice this. Also, Pang Nana usually liked to hang around her parents, but she’s gone now? Old Master Pang looked at Pang Lili’s parents and asked,

“Where’s Pang Nana?”

Everyone present was smart. How could they not know what Su Jin’s question imply? Pang Lili’s parents had always treated Pang Nana as their own daughter. The two of them looked at each other and understood why Old Master Pang asked them. Pang Lili’s mother, on the other hand, wanted to protect Pang Nana, so she said with a smile,

“Nana suddenly had a stomachache. Maybe she ate something bad. She’s gone to the bathroom!”

Pang Lili heard her mother defend Pang Nana and was immediately disappointed as she clenched her fists tightly. Why did her mother protect Pang Nana even now? Such a thing had happened and yet her mother wanted to make excuses for Pang Nana. Did her mother not understand that she might have become an ice-cold corpse if it weren’t for Su Jin just now?

Grandma Pang saw Pang Lili’s aggrieved look and glared angrily at her parents. Couldn’t these two people figure out what’s more important? They were actually protecting the person who wanted to hurt their own daughter? Were their brains damaged? How did she give birth to such a stupid son, who also married an idiot daughter-in-law!

Su Jin also saw Pang Lili’s aggrieved look, and the tears in her eyes. She didn’t expect Pang Lili’s parents to be so idiotic. Wasn’t Pang Lili much better than that two-faced hypocrite? Su Jin smiled and said in a not-too-loud voice that everyone could hear,

“Pang Nana has really good timing. She went to the bathroom and the chandelier fell!”

Once these words were said, how could everyone present not understand what she meant? However, what she said was not wrong. All this couldn’t really just be a coincidence, right? Everything was fine before, but when Pang Nana went to the bathroom, the chandelier fell? And it fell when Pang Lili was still on stage?

“That’s right. When the fake daughter walked the red carpet just now, she looked just like a two-faced hypocrite!”

“Yeah, and all that flirtatious posing. It’s disgusting. The fake daughter must be up to no good!”

“Now that you said it, I really think this matter has something to do with the fake daughter!”

“That’s right. Otherwise, how could a working chandelier suddenly fall off? The fake daughter must have done something to it!”

“The fake daughter must be doing this to destroy Pang Lili so that she can completely take over. How vicious!”
