Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Gu Siting Came Over
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the private room.

The Ming Family hadn’t recovered from their shock yet.

Especially Ming Wan.

Ming Yao, who had clearly been set up by Xiao Yixuan, why was it Xiao Yixuan who ended up being framed?

If the police had taken Ming Yao away, not only would she have to hand over the divorce settlement, but she would also be kicked out of the Ming Family and never be able to make a splash again!

But why was it Xiao Yixuan?

“Mom and Dad, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have misunderstood my sister…”

Jiang Biyun hugged Ming Wan, consoling her, “It’s not your fault; it’s Ming Yao who didn’t learn her lesson, ruining her own reputation. You can’t be blamed for misunderstanding her.”

Ming Wan sobbed, “It seems like my sister has a misunderstanding about me. She slapped me last time and also misunderstood that I seduced my brother-in-law. Could it be that she knew I was the leading lady in ‘Stunningly Beautiful’ and deliberately set up Director Feng and Brother Yixuan, so that I couldn’t play the lead female role?”

These words changed the expressions of both Jiang Biyun and Ming Guoan.

Jiang Biyun snorted coldly, “She herself didn’t behave and got Fourth Master Gu thoroughly sick of her. How dare she say you seduced Fourth Master? You’re beautiful, gentle, and talented. Isn’t it normal for Fourth Master to be attracted to you?”

At the end of the corridor, in a dark corner, a slender and tall figure leaned.

Ming Yao’s eyelids drooped, and her posture was lazily slouched against the wall.

She toyed with her nails, appearing indifferent, but had seen everything the Ming Family was up to.

Xiao Yixuan’s little tricks, trying to frame her?

She had taken the antidote before she came, so whether it was the weather-clearing drug or the aphrodisiac, they had no effect on her.

She drank the first glass of wine, letting Xiao Yixuan and Director Feng and others lower their guard. While pouring them wine, she added a specially prepared drug of hers into the wine bottle.

The specially prepared drug could make them have hallucinations after drinking it.

Although Xiao Yixuan’s face hadn’t completely healed, he had makeup on, making him look like a pretty boy.

Director Feng and others started to hallucinate, seeing him as a delectable woman, while Xiao Yixuan saw them as hunky men.

Heh.

The reporters were anonymously summoned by her.

After this incident, Xiao Yixuan’s reputation might be completely ruined, unable to stir up any more waves in the entertainment industry, huh?

As for calling the police–

That wasn’t her doing.

Could it be her nominal husband?

He probably disliked Xiao Yixuan’s cuckoldry for quite some time, right?

Dealing with such small-fry roles was probably beneath him, and since he never liked Ming Yao, he probably never gave her illicit lover much thought!

Ming Yao’s thoughts were pulled back by a remark from Ming Guoan, “Wanwan, you did nothing wrong. Fourth Master being attracted to you, it’s because of your talent and charm! Ming Yao should look for the reasons within herself. Besides, if she dares mess up your role as leading lady in ‘Stunningly Beautiful’, I won’t hesitate to break her legs!”

Seeing Ming Guoan’s uncontrollable rage, itching to take Ming Yao apart limb by limb, a mocking smile appeared on Ming Yao’s face.

She had suspected that she wasn’t Ming Guoan’s daughter.

But she bore a strong resemblance to Ming Guoan. At first glance, she was the spitting image of his own daughter.

Ming Guoan was well-known for his good looks in Li City in his youth; even now that he was older, he was still handsome, it was just that kidney deficiency made his dark circles quite noticeable, depriving him of the youthful charm and elegance.

Having such biased parents to an immeasurable extent, Ming Yao had really drawn the short straw in life.

She was always less than Ming Wan, wasn’t she?

One day, she would show them that Ming Wan wasn’t even fit to carry her shoes!

Ming Yao walked into the restroom and took out her phone to check it.

Tyrant Gu still hadn’t called her!

Was she going to have insomnia tonight?

Frustrated and restless, she took out a lady’s cigarette, squinting her beautiful eyes as she blew smoke rings.

At the restroom entrance, two tall figures approached.

Yanxi and Gu Siting were here.
