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

Zeng Lu was so angry that her eyes turned red, and everyone around her was pointing and whispering.

At this moment, her thinking was surprisingly acute, and she immediately locked onto Liang Ran’s position and rushed toward her aggressively.

She rushed in front of Liang Ran and raised her hand to slap her face.

Ji Xuan reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist. “You want to hit my people in front of me?”

“Let me go!” Zeng Lu screamed frantically, trying to kick him when her hand was stopped.

Ji Xuan narrowed his eyes and used his strength to throw her to the ground directly.

The people who were still in shock finally reacted. Fan Jin ran over and squatted down to help Zeng Lu up.

Zeng Lu leaned against him, and her frenzy finally subsided. After she came to her senses, she saw that everyone around her was looking at her with sharp eyes, stripping her bare.

Her tears fell and she looked up at Fan Jin. “Jin, this must be the doing of that b*tch Liang Ran.”

Fan Jin naturally thought of it too, and only at this moment did he clearly perceive that Liang Ran had changed. The Liang Ran who used to like to act coquettishly with him and live like a worry-free little princess every day had completely changed.

Zeng Hui was so angry that his face turned red, but he was old enough and had experienced enough to remain calm.

He walked in front of Liang Ran and looked at her as if she was a monster. “Liang Ran, what exactly do you want?”

Liang Ran was protected in Ji Xuan’s arms. She looked up with an innocent expression. “Grandpa Zeng, why would you say that? Isn’t this the surprise your precious granddaughter prepared for you? Miss Zeng is really innovative.”

Zeng Lu was furious. She turned around and glared at Leng Ran. “It must be you, you b*tch. You changed the video I prepared?”

Liang Ran didn’t deny it. She smiled and said, “Miss Zeng, you still remember Tang Li, right? She told me that beautiful things should be shared with others. Miss Zeng is such a beauty, isn’t it a pity not to let more people see?”

Zeng Lu trembled all over and suddenly thought of the USB drive that Ji Xuan had sent her. She anxiously asked, “What do you want to do?”

Liang Ran replied coolly, “Of course, I want to do good deeds and let more people see Miss Zeng’s beauty.”

“You…” Zeng Lu was so angry that she almost fainted. She couldn’t stand still and fell into Fan Jin’s arms.

“Take Lu upstairs to rest. I’ll take care of this,” Zeng Hui said to Fan Jin.

Fan Jin nodded and walked away with Zeng Lu. He was too ashamed to stay here any longer. The people around him were scrutinizing them.

Zeng Hui sent the two of them away and said to the surrounding guests, “I’m really sorry for ruining everyone’s mood today. I have some things to deal with first, so I’ll let my wife entertain everyone on my behalf.”

After Zeng Hui finished speaking, he asked He Yuan to stay. Then, he said to Liang Ran, “This is not the place to talk. Let’s go to the study.”

Liang Ran didn’t nod immediately. Ji Xuan said, “I’ll go with you.”

Zeng Hui’s expression changed slightly. He didn’t want Ji Xuan to go. Liang Ran was a little girl that was easy to deal with. If Ji Xuan followed, he wouldn’t have any advantage.

“Thank you, Mr. Ji,” Liang Ran nodded and said to Ji Xuan.

Every time she put away her prickly demeanor, she appeared incredibly docile. Her fair little face looked at you with genuine sincerity, which was extremely deceptive.

Ji Xuan didn’t say anything, but he thought to himself, “I just want to follow and see how angry Zeng Hui gets.”

It was not suitable to stay here and talk. There were too many people, and many of them were eager to hear some juicy gossip.

Zeng Hui had no choice but to agree. He brought the two of them to the study.

As soon as he entered the study, Zeng Hui said in a condescending tone, “Liang Ran, I didn’t expect a young lady like you to be so vicious. Your methods are so despicable. If your father knew about this, I wonder what he would think.”

Zeng Hui’s words had hit Liang Ran’s sore spot. He was much better than his granddaughter, who was full of bad ideas but only knew how to stomp her feet.

Liang Ran pursed her lips and clenched her fists.

Ji Xuan glanced at her, then turned to Zeng Hui calmly. “She’s just giving her a taste of her own medicine. If we were to talk about it, wouldn’t your granddaughter be even more despicable? She even dared to deliberately become the mistress. She dared to do it, why can’t Liang Ran speak out?”

Liang Ran looked at Ji Xuan gratefully.

Zeng Hui’s face twitched slightly. Facing Ji Xuan, he did not dare to speak too much. He could only smile awkwardly and say, “It’s normal for these things to happen in young people’s relationships, and the two of them have already reached the stage of marriage.”
