Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall, upright man walk in.

"Big...Big Brother..." Wen Simiao was dumbfounded.

Wen Xue was completely stunned. The person who entered the room with Qiao Wanwan was her older brother?

No wonder the figure looked familiar, but because she hadn't lived in the capital for the past few years, she wasn't very familiar with Wen Lijing and didn't recognize him at first!

How could Qiao Wanwan get involved with her older brother!

When Qiao Wanwan saw Wen Lijing, she subconsciously frowned. When she heard Wen Simiao call her "Big Brother," she had already guessed his identity. A flock of crows flew overhead.

Is the world really that small?!

Qiao Wanwan turned her head and looked at Wen Lijing.

Their eyes met, but neither of them spoke.

But Wen Lijing gave her a reassuring look, walked up to Wen Simiao, and said coldly, "The man in the video is me, can't you tell?"

Wen Simiao shrank back in fright. "Big brother, I'm sorry, I really didn't notice it was you."

"Then don't make a fuss."

Yes, yes, yes.

The guests were all dumbfounded.

"Holy crap, what's going on? Wen Xue and Master Zhan had a child, and Wen Lijing and Madam Zhan had an affair? Do these two families have to be so messy?"

"The last time I saw such a melodramatic plot was in a novel!"

"This is all a mess, it's making my head spin..."

Wen Xue took a deep breath, finally calming herself down, and stepped forward, lowering her voice to ask, "Big brother, how come you're with Qiao Wanwan? What's going on between you two...?"

"What do you want to happen between us?" Wen Simiao retorted. "Miss Qiao got into this mess at your dinner party, and you're not going to take responsibility?"

Wen Xue was a little embarrassed. "Big brother, there are so many people here, it's impossible for me to take care of everyone."

“Miss Wen really can’t take care of me.” Qiao Wanwan smiled faintly and said, “Because that glass of wine that was drugged was served to me by you, Miss Wen.”

"How could that be!" Wen Xue denied without hesitation. "Miss Qiao, you can eat whatever you want, but you absolutely cannot say whatever you want. How could I possibly drug you!"

"Since I arrived here, I've only drunk the glass of wine you offered me. Who else could it be but you?"

Wen Xue laughed out loud, "Miss Qiao, what good would it do me to drug you? Not only would it ruin my banquet, but now that you and my brother have this kind of relationship, our entanglements are too complicated to resolve. What else do I have besides a headache?"

"You know perfectly well what your purpose is." Qiao Wanwan's beautiful face turned cold, and her aura intensified. "Isn't it just that you want me to have sex with a man after being drugged, so you can divorce Jing Ting?"

Wen Xue's face flushed red, and she said angrily, "Miss Qiao, if that's how you put it, then there's no point. I'm not as despicable as you think!"

Qiao Wanwan smiled. "Of course you wouldn't admit to something like this, but there's something you definitely didn't expect."

Wen Xue asked, "What is it?"

"Nothing happened between me and your older brother."

Wen Xue blurted out, "How is that possible!"

Qiao Wanwan laughed directly, "Miss Wen's acting is really not very good. I have no entanglement with your older brother, shouldn't you be happy? Why are you reacting like this?"

Wen Xue suddenly realized she had lost her composure and hurriedly explained, "What I mean is, if you were really drugged, how did you manage to be unharmed without having sex with my brother?"

"So you think I'm lying to you?" Qiao Wanwan asked back.

"I didn't say that."

Just as Qiao Wanwan was about to speak, she heard Wen Lijing's voice, "Miss Qiao and I are completely innocent, and we have indeed never had any relationship."

He took out his phone and projected the video onto the screen. "To avoid any misunderstandings, I started recording before I helped Ms. Qiao into the room. This video is enough to prove our innocence."

Qiao Wanwan was quite surprised, not expecting Wen Lijing to be such a cautious person, actually making such preparations.

But thinking about it, it's normal. People in his position must have many people plotting against him, so it's impossible for him to be unprepared.

The video clearly shows Wen Lijing helping Qiao Wanwan into the bathroom and then quickly coming out; there was no further contact between them.

Zhan Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death! If anything had really happened to you, my uncle would have torn me apart when I got back!"

Qiao Wanwan curled her lips, "If she wants to plot against me, she'll have to see if she has the ability."

She wasn't entirely unprepared for Wen Xue; she had checked the glass of wine before accepting it. But she hadn't expected Wen Xue to have prepared such a potent drug—colorless, odorless, and extremely effective!

Since Wen Xue was heartless towards her, she can't be blamed for being ungrateful!

After the video finished playing, Qiao Wanwan stared at Wen Xue and asked, "Miss Wen, did I disappoint you?"

Wen Xue quickly calmed down, raised her chin, and said haughtily, "Miss Qiao is joking. What is there for me to be disappointed about?"

The guests began to discuss it.

"I failed to get my wish. I thought Qiao Wanwan and Wen Lijin really had something going on."

"Even if nothing else happened, today's events have been chaotic enough."

What do you think about what happened today?

"How can we interpret it? We have no right to interfere. We should just watch the show."

Qiao Wanwan glanced at the onlookers around her, not wanting to be the center of attention any longer. "I do not have any evidence that the drug was in the drink you handed me, but you know the truth. I'm not in the mood to play games with you, so I'm leaving now. But this matter is not over yet, and I hope you can give me an explanation as soon as possible."

Wen Xue was so angry she felt like her lungs were about to explode. She gritted her teeth and said, "Why should I give you an explanation?"
