The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

Li Jinhong's eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness as she glared at Song Xue'er!

"Look, doesn't she look like the woman in the video just now?"

"Now that you mention it, it really does seem like her. The woman from earlier had a similar build, almost like the same person. You guys said she's an employee of the Song Group, could it be related to the Song Group..."

"Possibly. She dared to steal a necklace worth ten million. What else wouldn't she do? I think she's a mistress."

Seeing the growing suspicions, An Linsheng knew he couldn't continue like this; once they figured it out, he'd be in trouble.

Pointing at Li Jinhong, he cursed, "My wife has already given you a way out, and you still don't appreciate it? Apologize now, or you won't need to come to work tomorrow. Our company doesn't need someone like you."

After finishing his sentence, An Linsheng sighed helplessly, "I've always been very lenient with the company's long-term employees. I usually turn a blind eye to their minor mistakes because I know they have it tough. But... sigh, Mrs. Wang, I'm really sorry."

An Qiqi also gestured to Li Jinhong to apologize quickly, and Li Jinhong bowed down in humiliation.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I was out of my mind for a moment. I'm sorry, please forgive me."

Song Xue'er looked troubled and patted Mrs. Wang's hand, "Mrs. Wang, what do you think?"

Mrs. Wang snorted coldly, "I'll let it slide today for Mrs. Song's sake. You should be thanking her."

Li Jinhong gritted her teeth and finally said thank you to Song Xueer.

Song Xueer thoughtfully instructed the maid to prepare a gift box for her as a surprise for the banquet today.

As soon as she stepped out the door, Li Jinhong threw the gift box into the trash can.

His eyes were fierce and venomous as he stared at the brightly lit Song family mansion.

Song Xue'er, I will remember this humiliation.

I will repay you a thousandfold in the future, you just wait.

The crowd dispersed.

An Qiqi walked up to Song Shuyue and questioned her aggressively, "Song Shuyue, are you doing this on purpose? Are you deliberately targeting us?"

Song Shuyue pretended to know nothing and innocently asked, "Deliberately? Deliberately what? You two? Who are you with?"

An Qiqi was furious. She clenched her fists and warned through gritted teeth, "I don't care what you know, I won't let you succeed, Song Shuyue! You think you can beat me? Wishful thinking."

Song Shuyue said coldly, "It's your An family that's daydreaming. An Qiqi, don't hang around in front of me, because I won't be able to resist hitting you, just like I did now."

With a "slap!" sound, a bright red handprint instantly appeared on An Qiqi's face.

An Qiqi was still looking confused when Song Shuyue wiped her hands with disgust and turned to leave.

An Qiqi realized what was happening and her anger flared up like a fire on a gasoline can.

He roared furiously, "Song Shuyue, you dare hit me? You're asking for death!"

A scream instantly drew everyone's attention. An Qiqi's face was contorted and grotesque.

A burning gaze fell upon them.

An Qiqi realized that she had become the center of attention, so she immediately composed herself and put on a pitiful expression.

"Sister, why did you hit me?"

Song Shuyue was quite a distance away from her, and seeing her talking to her, she asked in confusion, "Are you talking about me?"

An Qiqi covered her face with her hands, looking at her pitifully, "Yes, why did you hit me, sister? Did I do something wrong?"

Song Shuyue looked around at the people and asked Gu Xiaoxiao, "When did I hit her?"

Gu Xiaoxiao shook her head honestly and replied, "No, she probably has delusions! She fantasizes about someone hitting her every day."

"Pfft, hahaha." Someone burst out laughing.

Enraged, An Qiqi strode towards Song Shuyue, yelling, "You're the one who hit me! Why did you hit me? And you still won't admit it! Song Shuyue, you bitch, why don't you just die!"

After venting her frustrations, An Qiqi finally revealed what was on her mind.

An Lin was so angry he could hardly breathe. "An Qiqi, shut up and apologize to your sister right now!"

An Qiqi clenched her fists, turned around, and cursed at him, "Why? Why should I apologize to her? Song Shuyue, I will not let you get away with this, you bitch."

After saying that, he pushed through the crowd and rushed out.

Song Xue'er's face turned ashen. After a moment, she said helplessly, "Everyone, I'm really sorry. My daughter has a bit of a temper. She always feels that we are biased. But since she came to my Song family, I have been fair to her every night and have never thought of treating her as an outsider. Alas, I can't help it. After all, Yueyue is my biological daughter."

"Madam Song, you are too kind. An adopted daughter is an adopted daughter. Your Song family has already done her ancestors a favor by giving her this status. If she has any other thoughts, then she is scheming and ambitious."

“You didn’t hear what she said just now. For an adopted daughter to talk to your daughter like that shows how arrogant she usually is. You should be careful! The Song family’s things should stay with the Song family. We need to be wary of outsiders.”

"I think so too. This little girl doesn't seem like a filial person. She's so immature and doesn't know how to be grateful."

An Linsheng wished he could crush the wheelchair handles.

Damn it! Why did things have to turn out like this tonight?

It should be Song Shuyue who is being judged and criticized; everything seems to have been reversed.

Song Shuyue disdains framing people, but Gu Xiaoxiao sometimes says that changing the approach can have unexpected results.

That was really unexpected, and fun.

The banquet ended, and Song Yanbai was about to leave.

Song Shuyue stopped the person.

"Don't leave tonight, stay here and rest. It's dangerous."

Song Yanbai paused in putting on his coat, glanced out the window, and saw thunder.

"It's alright, it'll only be a dozen minutes before I get back, and the rain won't stop anytime soon."

Song Shuyue's face was cold and serious, and her tone left no room for doubt, "I'm not talking about the weather, someone wants to harm you."

"What!" Song Yanbai was startled.

Song Shuyue: "Your good friend's name is Li Yang, right?"

Song Yanbai nodded, "Yes!" Could it be him?!

Thinking of this, Song Yanbai's eyes darkened, and a ruthless look appeared in them. He had only just made his move, and he couldn't sit still anymore?

Their eagerness is truly unexpected.

"I'm not going anymore. I'll speed up. Yueyue, how did you know all this? Or have you been investigating all along?"

Song Yanbai couldn't understand why Song Shuyue knew things he didn't. Did she secretly investigate all along, or did someone tell her?

Song Yanbai stared intently at Song Shuyue, waiting for her answer.

Standing upstairs, Song Xue'er was also very curious when Song Yanbai asked about this.

Listening quietly, Song Shuyue smiled and said in a very earnest tone, "Because I am your ancestor."

Song Yanbai: "..."
