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

“Someone bumped into me from behind, so I accidentally knocked over the orchid...” as she spoke, Ji Qian lowered her voice. “I know you won’t believe me no matter what I say now. Even if someone bumped into me, I was the one who broke the orchid. Don’t worry, Miss Zhuang, I’ll think of a way to compensate the Zhuang family.”

Even if her big brother was here, she couldn’t casually shell out $100 million, not to mention that she was just the Fourth Young Missus of the Ji family who didn’t have any real power...

Zhuang Yu heard her words and sneered. “Compensate? How are you going to compensate? This orchid is the only one in the world, and my grandfather takes care of it every day! Miss Ji, not everything in this world can be solved with money!”

Old Master Zhuang was very old and in poor health. When he finds out someone destroyed his beloved orchid, there’s no knowing how much pain he would be in. If this caused him to fall ill, would Ji Qian be able to pay for it?!

Coincidentally, when Old Master Zhuang heard the bad news, he rushed over. When he saw the orchid on the ground, his expression was as dark as night.

He slammed his walking stick on the ground with an unsightly expression, and then shouted coldly, “Fourth Young Missus, don’t you know the basic etiquette of a guest? What did the Ji family teach you? Please throw Fourth Young Missus out. The Zhuang family does not welcome the Ji Family!”

The moment he finished speaking, the entire place was in an uproar.

Was the Zhuang family was about to openly turn against the Ji family? Cheng Liu was gloatingly at the side.

Old Master Zhuang had high status, and right now, he appeared extremely imposing, so much so that a young lady like Ji Qian could not withstand it. Her eyes were filled with tears, and her legs were shaking, she stumbled as she apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry...”

Ji Qian was not stupid. She knew what Old Master Zhuang meant. Ever since Ji Yan became a cripple, the Ji family became a target and the Ji Corporation was no longer what it used to be.

This time, she embarrassed the Ji family and angered the Zhuang family, making the Ji Corporation, which was already on the brink of danger, even more dangerous. But now, other than apologizing, she didn’t know what else to say. She heard whispers from the people around her. The originally soft voices in her ears grew louder and louder, almost crushing her.

“Sigh, it’s unlucky for the Ji family to have such a troublemaker. No matter how strong Ji Yan is, he can’t save his sister this time. What’s more, Ji Yan can’t even protect himself now.”

“That’s right. I don’t know what kind of sin Ji Yan committed in his previous life to reincarnate into the Ji family and have siblings like this. He’s crippled and none of his siblings can shoulder the responsibility of holding up the family. Not only so, they even cause him trouble.”

“This time, the Ji family won’t be able to recover. They’ve reached their end.”

Ji Qian covered her ears and shook her head desperately. “It’s not me. It’s not me. I didn’t...”

But no one believed her words, and no one was willing to listen to her.

Cheng Liu smiled but she still pretended to be regretful. “Ji Qian, you’re so insensible. How could you break Old Master Zhuang’s orchid... Sigh. Good thing Old Master Zhuang is magnanimous and letting you leave. You should go. Otherwise, if he continues to see you here, Old Master Zhuang would be in a bad mood...”

Cheng Liu spoke with concern, but every word she said nailed Ji Qian to the Pillar of Shame. If Ji Qian left the banquet now, that would prove to everyone that she did intentionally break the orchid. There would be no chance for Ji Qian to clear her name. Once she stepped out the door, the Zhuang family and the Ji family would become enemies.

The ladies who were chatting happily with Ji Qian earlier now wished they could stay as far away as possible. Everyone’s eyes were filled with disdain as if having interacted with Ji Qian was an embarrassing matter.

In an instant, the originally kind and beautiful world stretched its evil hands towards Ji Qian, allowing her to see the true colors of the world.

Just as Ji Qian fell into despair, a crisp sound rang out. Cheng Liu covered her face in disbelief and screamed, “Shen Hanxing, are you crazy? Why did you slap me? !”

Ji Qian raised her head as tears filled her eyes. Through the tears, she saw a slim woman standing in front of her, shielding her.

Her figure looked slender and fragile but still made people feel at ease. Ji Qian recognized who was standing in front of her. Her mouth opened and closed, and she sobbed as she repeated the woman’s name — Shen Hanxing, her sister-in-law whom she used to look down on the most.

Shen Hanxing’s expression was languid, but there was a frightening coldness in her eyes. She looked down at Cheng Liu and said, “So what if I slapped you? The Ji family and the Cheng family are on the same boat. When something happened to Ji Qian, not only did you not help her clarify the situation, you even added insult to injury and gloated over her misfortune. Is this the way the Cheng family raised you?”

With that, she raised her hand and slapped her again.
