My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chen Longxiang gritted his teeth, tore up the note in his hand, and pointed at Ye Guichen’s table: ”Grandma, I suspect Chen Ziran is colluding with outsiders to sell our Chen Group!”

At this moment, Chen Longxiang couldn’t hold back any longer.

The rest of the guests, upon hearing this, began to whisper to each other, excitement in their eyes.

It seemed there was going to be a good show today.

Elder Chen had already anticipated this. Seeing that Chen Ziran wanted to argue, her voice deepened: ”Ziran, don’t speak just yet. Let Longxiang speak first.”

Chen Ziran bit her lip and sat down reluctantly.

Chen Longxiang, feeling extremely pleased with himself, repeated his analysis and added more fuel to the fire: ”Grandma, we all know you only gave Chen Ziran five hundred thousand to buy a car, but what kind of car is she driving now? It’s worth at least two million! And why have all those equipment suppliers been seeking out Chen Ziran recently? Hmph, if she hadn’t sold herself and seduced someone, who would know her!”

”Chen Longxiang, you’re talking nonsense!” Chen Ziran never expected Chen Longxiang to say such things: ”You’re spouting lies. Where’s your evidence?”

”Haha, evidence?” Chen Longxiang laughed: ”Alright, then tell me, do you know Chairman Yan of Divine Wind Group?”

”I...” Chen Ziran was stunned.

He didn’t know anyone from Divine Wind Group, let alone Chairman Yan.

”Haha, nothing to say, huh?” Chen Longxiang’s eyes gleamed with excitement: ”Since you don’t know Chairman Yan, what makes you think you can have him stick up for you? What gives you the right to wear such an expensive necklace? As far as I know, that necklace should be worth tens of millions, right?”

Chen Longxiang pointed at the Star of Love around Chen Ziran’s neck.

Everyone’s eyes turned towards it in unison.

”Star of Love?”

”Isn’t that the Star of Love worth thirty million?”

”Tsk tsk, so rich. Does the entire Chen Group even have thirty million in liquidity?”

Many people almost instantly believed Chen Longxiang’s words.

”This, this was given to me by Ye Guichen.” Chen Ziran said excitedly.

But no one believed him.

”Haha, Ye Guichen? Dream on, just a country bumpkin like him?”

”I think Ye Guichen is just your scapegoat, right? Or maybe, country bumpkin, Chen Ziran is cuckolding you?”

”Haha, Chen Ziran, tell us, were you the one who set the factory on fire? Have you been planning your escape, using this opportunity to take over Chen Group and then give it to someone else?”

Chen Longxiang pressed on relentlessly.

Chen Ziran had never encountered such a situation before.

She was so flustered that she stuttered and couldn’t utter a single word.

This reaction only made people more convinced that what Chen Longxiang said was true.

”Grandma, please decide!” Chen Longxiang bowed slightly to Elder Chen, feeling proud after seeing Chen Ziran’s reaction.

Elder Chen’s face was gloomy as she looked at Chen Ziran: ”Ziran, do you have anything to say about what Longxiang said?”

”I, I didn’t...” Chen Ziran shook her head vigorously, but she herself didn’t understand what was going on or how to explain it.

”Didn’t?” Elder Chen’s face remained cold as she said in a chilling voice: ”Then tell me, why would those people help you? Just because you are beautiful?”

”That’s right, grandma is absolutely right. Why would they help you? Just because you are beautiful?” Seeing Chen Ziran’s appearance, Chen Siyu added oil to the fire.

”I, I...”

”What do you mean ’I...’ Are you afraid to say it, or do you have nothing to say?” Chen Longxiang took another step forward and stood in front of Chen Ziran: ”In front of so many guests today, do you still want to say something?”

”Clap! Clap! Clap!”

The sound of clapping reverberated in the room.

Ye Guichen lightly patted Chen Ziran on the shoulder and stood up again: ”Chen Longxiang, I didn’t expect you to be so eloquent! Haha, if I hadn’t been prepared, you might actually have succeeded.”

”Guichen, I...” Chen Ziran looked helpless, but seeing Ye Guichen smiling at her calmed her down.

Chen Longxiang snorted coldly: ”What, you have something to say?”

”Of course.” Ye Guichen smiled and presented the gift box he was holding: ”I haven’t unwrapped my gift yet.”

”You still have the heart to unwrap a gift at a time like this?” Chen Longxiang mocked.

Chen Siyu quickly snatched the gift away, wanting to embarrass Chen Ziran, and promptly unwrapped it.

Chen Siyu was taken aback by what she saw.

It turned out to be just a USB drive.

”Is this your gift to grandma?” Chen Siyu sneered: ”A USB drive? Haha, Chen Ziran, do you think you’re so important now that you can disregard grandma?”

”Right, Chen Guanghui, don’t you know how to discipline your daughter?”

”What a disgrace. I never thought Chen Ziran would do something like this.”

The curses and jeers from the crowd were relentless.

Chen Ziran was also bewildered.

She couldn’t understand why Ye Guichen would give a USB drive as a gift?

Such a gift?

This was absurd.

Chen Guanghui and Lv Ping glared hatefully at Ye Guichen, their heads lowered, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into.

Ye Guichen was unperturbed: ”Elder Chen, this is my gift. Do you have the guts to play it on the big screen?”

Elder Chen snorted: ”This is not the place for your petty tricks.”

”If you won’t play it, I’ll help you.” Ye Guichen ignored Elder Chen and ordered: ”Zeng Yu, what are you standing there for?”

From the corner of the banquet hall, a figure quickly darted into the projection room.

Seeing that figure, Chen Longxiang’s eyelids twitched, and he immediately sensed a foreboding feeling.

Soon, the big screen in the banquet hall began to display an unsightly scene.

”Ah, stop it! Turn it off!” Chen Longxiang immediately recognized one of the people on the screen was himself, rolling around in bed at a hotel.

He rushed towards the projection room but was quickly blocked by a burly man with a thick beard. It was Hu Bing.

”What, what are you going to do?”

Hu Bing remained expressionless: ”No rush, watch the video first.”

The entire hall fell into a deathly silence. Apart from the vivid scenes and the pulsating sounds from the video, it was as if the entire world had frozen.

Chen Ziran and some of the other girls covered their eyes in shame.

Some people were so disgusted that they vomited on the spot.

Many men, however, stared wide-eyed, as if they had witnessed something extraordinary.

Exhilarating!

This birthday feast was beyond thrilling!

Elder Chen trembled with rage, her cane striking the floor repeatedly: ”Disgraceful! Disgraceful!”

”Ye Guichen, I’ll kill you!” Chen Longxiang, his face flushed with humiliation, charged madly at Ye Guichen.

Hu Bing, however, lifted a foot and kicked Chen Longxiang away.

After the video ended, a few audio clips played. They were recordings of Chen Longxiang hiring people to set the fire, and even planning to assassinate Chen Ziran and Ye Guichen.

”It’s over, it’s really over this time.”

Chen Longxiang slumped to the ground, watching Hu Bing, who was staring at him intently. He clenched his teeth so hard he nearly shattered them.
