Jian Ruoxi could clearly hear the guests behind her talking amongst themselves.
"Is this a fight between Young Master Lu's ex and current girlfriend?" They were just here to attend a cocktail party to see if the script for the eldest daughter of the Lu family was worth investing in.
Who would have thought we'd witness such a spectacular show?
"If we didn't see wrong, didn't Miss Jian push Miss Li first?"
"It seems that's indeed the case."
It's very clear from their perspective.
Although Ms. Li was pulled back in time, the atmosphere between them was clearly not right.
They didn't know if it was the right time to go.
"Miss Jane is not that kind of person."
The maid who came out with them immediately defended Jian Ruoxi.
They remained steadfastly on Jian Ruoxi's side, even though they saw that Jian Ruoxi had struck first. In their hearts, it must have been Li Anran's fault.
The guests didn't know anything about Jian Ruoxi; they only believed what they saw with their own eyes.
In addition, since Li Anran was personally brought in by the old lady, they would all be more inclined to side with Li Anran.
"The facts are there for all to see, and there's nothing you can do if you don't believe them."
Discussions were incessant, but only a handful of people sided with Jian Ruoxi, and they were mostly servants.
Even if they were furious, they couldn't reason with the Lu family's guests.
He could only suppress his anger.
Jian Ruoxi and Li Anran could hear these conversations.
She took a few deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down.
She stared blankly at Li Anran in front of her and said coldly.
"Li Anran, you were clearly doing this on purpose! You're the one who really wanted to harm someone!"
If she hadn't reacted quickly, she and her child would definitely have been hit.
"Oh, really?" Li Anran chuckled.
The people not far away were engrossed in discussing the situation on this side, and no one paid any attention to their subsequent conversation.
Li Anran had no intention of continuing to cover it up.
"You say I harmed you, but does anyone believe me?"
She gestured with her eyes to the group of people behind her.
This place was carefully chosen by her.
Unless you're standing right next to them, you can't see the truth at all.
Those people will only assume that Jian Ruoxi is the one causing trouble.
Li Anran glanced at Jian Mengyu beside her.
"Mengyu, you've been here the whole time, did you see me harm your sister?"
She didn't leave Jian Mengyu here for nothing.
Jian Mengyu smiled as she looked at Jian Ruoxi, who had no expression on her face, and said softly.
"No, I only saw that Miss Li was planning to leave with my sister."
"But I don't know what my sister was thinking, she suddenly decided to harm Miss Li."
Jian Ruoxi looked at her coldly.
Li Anran really did find herself a good helper.
With his own sister willing to stand up for him as a witness, who wouldn't believe him?
The two of them must have thought about this plan for a long time.
I anticipated every step that followed.
"Do you think you can kick me out by framing me like this?"
She hadn't yet guessed Jian Mengyu's true purpose, but Li Anran's was quite obvious.
During their last meeting, Li Anran kept trying to get herself to leave Lu Shen's private residence.
"If that's all there is to it, it's certainly not enough."
Li Anran took out a fruit knife she had prepared beforehand from her bag.
What is she going to do?
Jian Ruoxi was worried that Li Anran would rush at her with a knife, so she put one hand on her lower abdomen and took a small step back, ready to run away at any time.
Just when she thought Li Anran was about to rush over, she saw Li Anran holding a knife, pointing it at her own wrist, and slashing it down hard.
"Li Anran, you've really gone mad."
In an attempt to frame her, he even resorted to self-harm.
As if she felt no pain, Li Anran saw the blood gradually seeping out from her wrist and a strange smile appeared on her lips.
She seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the wound on her wrist, so she picked up the fruit knife and made another cut.
The wound looked even more horrifying.
Jian Ruoxi's gaze shifted slightly.
This woman must be crazy.
It seems she cut the artery in her wrist.
Jian Ruoxi assumed a defensive stance, her expression tense, and stared coldly at Li Anran.
"Li Anran, isn't this kind of tactic a bit too despicable?"
How could someone even come up with the idea of self-harm?
She was amazed by their thought process.
Li Anran smiled and said, "Jian Ruoxi, when we met last time, I thought you had made some progress."
"But now it seems I was wrong; you're still the same as before."
"Actually, whether the means are despicable or not is not important at all; what matters is the result. As long as the ultimate goal is achieved, any means are acceptable."
This is also a principle she has always believed in.
If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have let Lu Shen fall in love with her when he was young.
She will never have the chance to return to Lu Shen's side again and become the future young mistress of the Lu family.
This is all the result of her hard work.
Now, she is about to get rid of Jian Ruoxi, this troublesome woman, so that her position as the young mistress of the Lu family will be more secure.
Li Anran glanced at the guests not far away, wanting to continue to destroy Jian Ruoxi's beliefs.
"Now that this has spread, and so many eyes are watching."
"Tell me, does Lu Shen believe you, or does he believe the truth?"
"And the old lady, if she knew you were plotting against me and were unhappy with the Lu family's decision, how do you think she would treat you?"
Unable to grasp Ah Shen's thoughts, she specifically invited the old lady to come over to ensure the success of today's plan.
She refused to believe that if the old lady insisted on kicking Jian Ruoxi out again, Ah Shen could stop her.
Li Anran felt victory was in sight, and a hint of pleasure appeared on his face.
I can finally avenge the death of my child.
This time, no matter what, she was determined to get rid of Jian Ruoxi completely.
This ensured that she would never be able to appear in front of the Lu family again.
She will marry Ah Shen and become the true young mistress of the Lu family.
Then, by using the Lu family's power, they would eliminate Ali and her boss one by one, thus eliminating any further threats to themselves.
She will also have a child with Ah Shen that truly belongs to them, and she will become a woman that everyone envies.
A sinister glint appeared in Li Anran's eyes.
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked up at Jian Mengyu beside her.
Jian Mengyu understood immediately and shouted to the crowd outside.
"Help! Help!"
Hearing Jian Mengyu's shout, the guests, fearing something even worse might happen, rushed over.
"What's wrong?"
They were so busy gossiping that they didn't pay much attention to what was happening here afterward.
So I really don't know what kind of conflict happened here later.
When they arrived, they only saw Jian Mengyu supporting Li Anran.
