Being tortured by her whole family, she no longer pretends to be a real daughter!

Lin Ruoyao's expression suddenly became flustered and her face turned pale.

She clenched her palms and her face was covered in cold sweat. At this moment, Mu Xiuyuan's incredulous voice came from behind her.

"Lin Ruoyao!"

"Are you crazy?"

"Did you really plan all this?"

Mu Xiuyuan couldn't believe that Lin Ruoyao, whom he had always thought was kind and simple, would do such a dirty thing in order to exclude Lin Yusheng.

Lin Ruoyao's body suddenly stiffened. She turned around and met Mu Xiuyuan's eyes filled with anger and disappointment, and suddenly panicked.

"No...no!"

"Brother Xiuyuan, I didn't. I didn't mean it."

"You didn't mean to?" Mu Xiuyuan found it funny. "Did you do it accidentally? Did you accidentally collude with Ye Qingying? Did you accidentally drug Lin Yusheng? Did you accidentally find a man to tarnish Lin Yusheng's innocence?"

Lin Ruoyao was stunned and couldn't say a word.

Mu Xiuyuan clenched his fists tightly. What happened today had already overturned his three views and all his understanding of Lin Ruoyao!

Mu Xiuyuan looked at her in despair, "Lin Ruoyao, from today on, the engagement between you and me is annulled!"

"I can't possibly marry a woman as vicious as you."

It was like a heavy hammer hitting her. Lin Ruoyao stood there in a daze, and the whole world was buzzing.

"Brother Xiuyuan..."

She trembled and tried to hold Mu Xiuyuan's hand, but Mu Xiuyuan pushed her away and walked away.

Lin Yusheng's cold eyes swept over Lin Sheng and Lin Qian who were standing beside him.

"Do you still think your good sister was wronged?"

Faced with Lin Yusheng's cold questioning, Lin Sheng and Lin Qian's faces were as ugly as they could be.

Ye Qiuyue said, "Our Ye Qingying deserves to be punished for her involvement in this matter. However, Mr. Lin, you should think carefully about this. If Lin Ruoyao hadn't framed Lin Yusheng, the real daughter, to win her favor, why would Qingying have gotten involved in this mess if she had no grudge against Lin Yusheng?"

"It's not an exaggeration to say that this incident was caused by Lin Ruoyao."

"So if Mr. Lin insists on arresting Qingying, then let the police arrest Lin Ruoyao and Ye Qingying together. Our Ye family has absolutely no objection."

Lin Yaodong's face changed. He looked at Ye Qingying, then at Lin Ruoyao, and slapped Lin Ruoyao on the spot.

"Look at the good things you've done!"

"Are you crazy? Lin Ruoyao? Lin Yusheng is your sister, how could you do that to her?"

Forget about the little calculations she made on a daily basis, he really couldn't imagine that Lin Ruoyao could do such a ridiculous thing.

Lin Ruoyao was hit so hard that half of her body tilted and she fell to the ground.

She cried and sobbed, "I'm sorry, Dad, sister, I was wrong... I was really wrong."

Lin Yaodong was really furious.

If something really happened to Lin Yusheng, how could he still expect Lin Yusheng to marry into one of the four major families and lead their Lin family to prosperity?

Lin Yaodong raised his hand and wanted to hit him, but when he thought about someone watching, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

He looked at the guests present and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, everyone. I really ruined everyone's fun today. It's my fault for not raising my daughter well and making a fool of myself."

As for the police, Lin Yaodong naturally couldn't really let the police take Lin Ruoyao away as well.

"Officers, I'm sorry, this is a family matter. I'm sorry to have disturbed you."

Lin Yaodong was completely humiliated and quickly sent everyone away.

After today's birthday party, what Lin Ruoyao did will probably be known to everyone and become notorious.

Lin Yusheng went downstairs with Lu Jingxiao. "Lu Jingxiao, thank you for what happened today."

If Lu Jingxiao hadn't been there, Ye Qingying wouldn't have given Lin Ruoyao away so quickly.

Lu Jingxiao looked at her deeply with his dark eyes. After a long pause, he opened his thin lips and said, "You're welcome."

Lu Jingxiao said goodbye to Lin Yusheng and walked out of the banquet hall. Turning the corner, he saw Fu Shaohan waiting at the door.

Fu Shaohan looked at him with a smile on his face.

"When did our unsympathetic President Lu become so nosy?"

If word were to get out that he could stand up and support a little girl, it would probably shock those who knew Lu Jingxiao.

Lu Jingxiao glanced at him coldly, "Why am I meddling in other people's business?"

What he cares about is his own business and his girlfriend's business.

It’s this Fu Shaohan.

"You are the one meddling in other people's business." Lu Jingxiao said dissatisfiedly.

For some reason, when Fu Shaohan heard Lu Jingxiao's tone and looked at his eyes, he actually tasted a hint of...unusual taste?

Didn't he just stand up and say a few words for Lin Yusheng?

Why does Lu Jingxiao seem to dislike him?

They were fine a few days ago.

Fu Shaohan leaned over and looked at his expression. "What? Are you angry?"

Lu Jingxiao turned his face away and distanced himself from him. "From now on, stay out of other people's business! Also, don't think I don't know that the jade you gave to Lin Yusheng is worth as much as my pink diamond."

It would be fine if the gift Lu Zhiyin gave was more expensive than his, but the gift Fu Shaohan gave was also more expensive than his.

He lost all his face.

Also, when had Fu Shaohan ever been so generous to anyone else? Why was he so generous to Lin Yusheng? Was he trying to woo her?

If he wants to pursue Lin Yusheng, he has to twist Fu Shaohan's head off.

Fu Shaohan touched his chin and sighed, "I just think that the eldest daughter of the Ye family is a bit too bullying. As for the jade I gave to Lin Yusheng, it was because I wanted to ask her for a calligraphy."

"Nonsense!" Lu Jingxiao saw through him at a glance.

"When did you develop the habit of collecting calligraphy and paintings? How come I didn't know? Fu Shaohan, I understand you much better than you think."

Fu Shaohan was stunned.

is it?

Lu Jingxiao actually knew him so well that he even knew that he didn't collect calligraphy and paintings?

"You said you came here to ask for a calligraphy, but actually you came here to celebrate Lin Yusheng's birthday, right?" Lu Jingxiao's tone became even colder when he thought that Fu Shaohan might have some intentions towards Lin Yusheng.

"I didn't see you come to my birthday party, so why did you make such a fuss about Lin Yusheng's birthday?"

If this isn't some sort of plot against Lin Yusheng, what is it?

Fu Shaohan touched his chin and looked at Lu Jingxiao's cold expression.

After hearing what he said, why did it feel like Lu Jingxiao was even jealous?

Just because he came to Lin Yusheng's birthday party but didn't go to his birthday party?

Fu Shaohan's eyebrows twitched violently.

Damn, could it be that Lu Jingxiao likes him?

For some reason, he suddenly remembered what Lu Jingxiao had said to him before: "When you have someone you love, your heart will no longer be lost."

He remembered clearly the look on Lu Jingxiao's face when he said this.

It is three parts tenderness, three parts affection and four parts love.

Fu Shaohan suddenly felt cold all over.

No way, it turns out Lu Jingxiao has fallen in love with him since that time!
