nChapter 78: That Was How She Fell!

nTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

nThe unadulterated malevolence in Chui Ming's voice cast a pall over the crowd. The room went silent.

nThey understood his anger.

nXinghe was trying to argue her way out of her culpability with the fake threat of having 'proof', it was the cheapest trick in the book and thus the room was reasonably siding with Chui Ming.

nIf Xinghe had admitted her mistake and apologized sincerely since the beginning, Chui Ming wouldn't be hounding her so hard. This was what the crowd thought.

nLittle did they know, no matter what kind of attitude Xinghe showed, Chui Ming didn't plan to let her off easy.

nLike a panther out on the prowl, Chui Ming stared at Xinghe like he was looking at his prey.

nXia Xinghe has to die!

nOr at the very least, ruined until she had no chance at a comeback!

nChui Ming got where he was professionally because he had no conscience. He had ruined many lives for the sake of business deals. He never found difficulty sleeping at night.

nTherefore, Xinghe would have to pay severely that day even if she had Xi Mubai behind her.

nXinghe was, of course, not clueless to his hidden intention. Even Mubai had correctly guessed it.

nHe narrowed his eyes, interested to see how Xinghe would turn this around.

nShe'd better not… disappoint him.

n

"Alright then, here is the proof!

" Xinghe announced confidently. Under everyone's watchful eyes, she removed a pen recorder from her purse with a dramatic flourish.

nWushuang's face blanched immediately.

nThe b*tch brings a freaking pen recorder to a kid's birthday party‽

nEven Chui Ming was surprised.

nXinghe savored their reactions with a smile before pressing the play button—

nWushuang's bitter voice immediately reverberated across the ballroom.

nXia Xinghe, it has been such a long time. Who would have thought you could still make a pointless effort for a comeback? Not me, obviously. Honestly though, I am truly glad for you. I'm impressed actually. Not any woman…

nEveryone present did a double-take as Wushuang's voice continued to flow from the recorder.

nWushuang stared at the pen recorder with bulging eyes, she had half a mind to leap forward to snatch it.

nBut she was frozen in both shock and humiliation.

nChui Ming also discovered something was wrong when Xinghe pulled out the recorder. He made an immediate move but suddenly…

nHe felt an imposing presence washed over him. He turned to its source and saw Mubai staring at him with deep and impressive eyes. He was stunned into immobility.

nWith Mubai staring him down, he didn't dare to behave wantonly.

nHis previous aggression was warranted because he was the victim, but now that Xinghe produced the evidence, he believed Mubai would definitely intervene if he acted out of line.

nFurthermore, there were many other distinguished guests at the party.

nHe understood instinctually that the scale has tipped…

nWushuang, in her paralysis, didn't notice the side-eye Chui Ming tossed her.

nIn that moment, even before the recorder finished playing, Chui Ming had come to a decision, which was to cut her loose! He was going to prop her up as the sacrifice.

nNo worries, I have a plan ready to destroy you. Can you tell what it is? In the recording, Wushuang's voice dropped to vicious whisper. When they heard the question, everyone could feel their skin crawl.

nThen came Xinghe's calm reply, I do not, but do tell.

nAfter that, Wushuang's tone had a dramatic shift. It was like she was doing vocal acrobatic.

nSis, please don't get mad at me. It's all my fault, sis, please forgive me…

nIt was followed by her ear-splitting scream.

nEveryone remembered this was the moment when the room saw her fall.

nSo, this was how she 'fell' in the first place!

nIt was Wushuang who hated and was envious of Xinghe, not the other way around. She put on a whole show to frame Xinghe!
