Chapter 284: Chapter 282: How Long Do You Think You Can Remain Arrogant?

Lu Zhaozhao didn’t know that Xia Wenmo had been targeted when he went to get the drinks.

Nor did she know that when he brought the drinks back, one of the fruit beverages suitable for ladies had already been spiked.

From a distance, the person who drugged the drink saw Lu Zhaozhao take the fruit beverage and silently walked in another direction.

“Sister just finished eating fruit, she shouldn’t drink juice; it’s bad for the stomach,” before Wen Jin could take the tall glass, Xia Wenyan gave Pei Huai a look.

The next second, Pei Huai took the tall glass from Lu Zhaozhao’s hand.

Worried that Xia Wenmo might snatch it back, he tilted his head and took a big gulp.

Xia Wenmo glared at Xia Wenyan and dismissively said, “So you plan to keep Zhaozhao here just eating fruit?”

Xia Wenyan’s lips twitched guiltily, “Not really… I was thinking of my sister’s health.”

Xia Wenmo looked at Xia Wenyan speechlessly, almost writing “Do you think I believe you?” on his face.

At that moment, Xia Wenjue and Song Sinian happened to walk back.

Seeing Lu Zhaozhao encircled by Xia Wenmo and Xia Wenyan, his brow furrowed, then he walked straight over and reached out to block Lu Zhaozhao’s lower back.

Such an obvious display of claiming authority, if they couldn’t see that, they were truly blind.

Xia Wenyan pursed his lips, his gaze shifting to Xia Wenjue, clearly accusing him of why he, as the eldest brother, didn’t talk more with Song Sinian.

Xia Wenmo’s expression also held a complaint.

Xia Wenjue’s lips twitched, clearly disgusted with his two brothers.

He had sacrificed his time with his sister to discuss matters with that stinky kid, Song Sinian.

Yet on his return, he had to endure the resentful looks of two ingrates. They were really white-eyed wolves, hmph!

Xia Wenjue silently huffed in his heart, if it wasn’t because Xia Wenmo had just had surgery and Xia Wenyan was too incompetent in fights,

he would definitely drag both younger brothers to spar with Song Sinian!

Meanwhile, the figure who left the banquet hall for another direction had slipped into a corner.

“Miss Song, I have done what you asked… Should I…” The woman looked nervously toward Song Keren and the presence of Xiao Jinglan behind her.

Seeing this, Song Keren glanced disdainfully at the woman, then handed her an envelope.

The woman thanked them profusely and immediately left the banquet hall.

Originally, Xiao Jinglan and Song Keren planned to have a waiter drug Song Sinian.

But after approaching two or three waiters, they found they couldn’t bribe any of them.

The waiters at the charity auction were all meticulously selected by the organizers, who repeatedly emphasized the need to take good care of and protect Lu Zhaozhao.

Any issue arising would be their collective responsibility.

As a result, Xiao Jinglan not only failed in her bribery attempts but also had to pay several times to keep people quiet.

Left with no choice, they finally managed to rope in a minor celebrity at the charity auction, vaguely connected to Wen Jin.

However, they had prepared the follow-up evidence well–if investigated, it would surely trace back to Wen Jin.

By then, there would be no way for her to deny it!

Song Keren thought to herself and couldn’t help but smile. However, when she remembered that Lu Zhaozhao, even if drugged, had Song Sinian by her side to easily handle the situation, her expression changed again.

“What a pity, this time we can’t let Lu Zhaozhao be humiliated as well.”

Xiao Jinglan tapped Song Keren on the shoulder, “You silly child, now that Lu Zhaozhao is so thoroughly protected by Song Sinian, attacking her would definitely come at a cost. To me, she is the best weapon.”

As long as Song Sinian knew that it was Xia Wenjin who did this, he would definitely not let her get away with it.

He might even destroy this wretched girl.

Xiao Jinglan scoffed lightly, looking at Xia Wenjin not far away with a cold expression.

This bitch dared to seduce her son-in-law and cuckold her son!

She deserved to die!

If it weren’t for the financial ties with the Lu Group, she would have killed this woman directly!

“Alright, since everything is already arranged, let’s just wait for the follow-up news,” Xiao Jinglan said as she began to push Song Keren away.

She had barely taken two steps when Song Keren grabbed her hand pushing the wheelchair, “Mom, you go wait in the car for me. I need to visit the restroom and will be back soon.”

Xiao Jinglan was about to speak, but Song Keren added, “If you wait here for me, I’m worried that Lu Zhaozhao might see us, and we might lose all our efforts.”

Xiao Jinglan thought it over and felt it made sense.

“Then be careful. go and come back quickly, and don’t get involved with anyone else, understand?”

After instructing her with these words, she turned and walked away, leaving only a female assistant with Song Keren.

The assistant had been assigned to Song Keren by the company when she was an artist.

She found her handy, so she kept her around.

Seeing that Xiao Jinglan had left, Song Keren then turned to the assistant and said, “Take me over there.”

The assistant froze for a moment, “Sister Song, didn’t you want to go to the restroom?”

Song Keren’s face darkened, “I said where to go now, why so much nonsense?”

The assistant’s face instantly paled, and she timidly nodded, “I understand, Sister Song.”

With that, she pushed Song Keren along the long corridor of the banquet hall towards the balcony as instructed.

They soon found Xia Wenjin near the balcony.

“Oh, who is this? I don’t remember my brother giving you an invitation to the charity dinner,” Song Keren’s mocking voice slowly rose.

Xia Wenjin was sipping champagne in her hand and paused slightly when she heard Song Keren’s voice.

Turning her head to look at Song Keren sitting in the wheelchair, she suddenly scoffed, “Just because Xiao Mo didn’t, doesn’t mean others didn’t, like your husband…”

She deliberately lifted her chin, provoking Song Keren.

Knowing Song Keren, this fool would definitely jump with fury at her mockery.

Having just been compared to Lu Zhaozhao and been frustrated, Song Keren’s arrival was perfectly timed.

She didn’t care how Song Keren had got there or what she was there to do.

She just wanted to vent all the jealousy she felt toward Lu Zhaozhao on Song Keren.

Song Keren clearly clenched her fists, but her expression wasn’t as irritable as Xia Wenjin had anticipated.

Instead, she wore a strange smile, staring into Xia Wenjin’s eyes and slowly said, “Xia Wenjin, how much longer do you think you can be arrogant? Even if you seduced my husband, what difference does it make? As long as I don’t cry and make a fuss, this position will always be mine, you can only wish for more!”
