"If you're really prone to fainting all the time, Jian Mengyu, I advise you to stay home and rest, so you don't cause so much trouble." Lu Jin sneered.
Jian Mengyu and Li Anran are practically the same kind of people.
The only difference is who has a higher skill level.
"You actually dare to slander Ruoxi? Do you think that just because you fainted like this, I can pretend I didn't see anything?"
She hosted the party, and now that the truth has come out, she naturally has to be the first to step forward and deal with it.
Not to mention that Ruoxi is someone she protects.
We need an explanation today, no matter what.
Jian Mengyu sensed Lu Jin's relentless insistence and quickly searched her mind for a way to save herself.
She glanced at the surrounding crowd, trying to find President Zheng.
I searched back and forth twice, but I couldn't find a trace of her.
When they know there are benefits, they want to praise her to the skies.
But when he realized that things were about to be exposed and worried that the Lu family would also know about his role and pursue the matter, he immediately went into hiding.
They didn't care whether she lived or died.
Such a man is indeed unreliable.
Her eyes darted around, and an idea immediately formed in her mind. She then spoke to Lu Jin in front of her.
"Miss Lu, I don't understand, why are you keeping pressing me like this?"
Jian Mengyu slowly stood up, her expression no longer showing the panic she had just displayed. Her face now held a gentle, vulnerable look, as if she had truly suffered some great injustice.
"In the end, this is just your family matter, and it has nothing to do with me."
"Although Jian Ruoxi is my sister, she also has another identity: Lu Shao's ex-wife."
"It was Li Anran who cut herself with a knife and framed my sister. I was just forced into it."
She portrayed herself as a victim.
“Li Anran threatened me with my family, saying that if I didn’t help her this time, she would cause trouble for my family.”
"I was so scared that I..."
The guests present couldn't help but nod in agreement, feeling that what Jian Mengyu said made some sense.
If Li Anran were to bring up her status as the future young mistress of the Lu family, it would indeed be difficult for others to refuse.
This second young lady of the Jian family comes from a small town, and it's possible that she was afraid of her power and was forced to agree.
"Jian Mengyu," Jian Ruoxi called her name softly.
She thought that by saying that, she could get away with it?
Her younger sister always considers herself smart and treats everyone else like fools.
Little did she know, she herself was the one with the most flaws.
If such acting skills were shown on screen, the audience would probably see right through them immediately.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Faced with Jian Ruoxi like this, she suddenly felt uncertain.
“Li Anran has wanted to get rid of me for a long time, and I’ve always known that.”
"But she wasn't really stupid enough to almost pay with her life just to get rid of me."
"You know best how you encouraged her and how you persuaded her to carry out your plan. I know it very well too."
Jian Ruoxi, how could she have seen through it?
This really surprised her.
Although she was surprised, her expression remained completely composed, still showing a look of fear and frailty.
"Sister, you've misunderstood me. We're family."
"We share the same blood, how could I possibly harm you?"
“Even if your sister is really angry about what happened today, you should go find Li Anran instead. I’ve already made it very clear that she is the mastermind behind this.”
Even if someone were to ask Li Anran, they wouldn't get any answers.
From the start of the party until Li Anran was carried in, she probably naively thought she was still her little follower, always doing what she was told.
Little did they know, she was the one who guided everything.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Jian Mengyu's lips.
"Oh? Is that so?" Lu Shen, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly spoke up.
The field fell silent.
Jian Mengyu's heart skipped a beat.
I have a feeling that Lu Shao was waiting for her to say these words.
Or is this just her imagination?
"Whether he is the mastermind or not will be clear once we ask him."
Lu Shen looked past Jian Mengyu and toward the temporary first aid room over there.
Everyone present followed Lu Shen's gaze in that direction, their faces filled with confusion.
Wasn't Miss Li just taken over there for treatment?
That's a major artery in the wrist that was cut; it probably won't be healed quickly.
Jian Ruoxi narrowed her eyes slightly upon seeing this scene.
She lowered her head slightly and murmured.
"It turns out he knew all along that Li Anran and the others were lying, which is why he deliberately set up this trap to mislead them."
"No wonder he specifically called the Lu family's private doctor instead of sending him directly to the hospital."
She had met the Lu family's private doctor several times, and she was quite confident in his medical skills.
Even if Li Anran had a cut on her wrist, or even if her arm were broken, I believe a private doctor could find a way to reattach it.
Moreover, this person has a strange habit when treating patients: he likes to chat with them while treating them, so even for major surgeries, he only uses local anesthesia.
Given how talkative the private doctor is, he probably already told Li Anran what happened in the lobby.
"Jian Mengyu, how dare you scheme against me!"
When Li Anran came out of the treatment room, the wound on her wrist had already been treated, and her complexion had improved considerably.
Lu Shen asked the private doctor who followed him, puzzled.
"What did you feed her? She recovered so quickly?"
The private doctor took out an empty syringe.
"It's nothing, just a dose of hormones. Don't worry, it won't kill you."
"She'll probably be sleeping for two days after tonight."
"Young Master Lu, wasn't my treatment timely enough?"
He even chose a suitable time so that Li Anran could hear what Jian Mengyu had to say.
Lu Shen nodded in satisfaction.
“Great, I'll cover the research funding for this month.”
Private doctors' eyes light up at the mention of research funding.
Despite being the Lu family's doctor for so many years, he had never seen Young Master Lu so generous.
His gaze drifted to Jian Ruoxi, who was still standing straight not far away.
It seems that only Miss Jian could make Young Master Lu act so unusually.
Jian Mengyu's face showed a panicked expression.
She thought that Li Anran had lost so much blood that she would have fainted by the time she got to the emergency room.
How can I still hear these things?
Her mind went completely blank; she hadn't expected this at all.
Immediately afterwards, she heard Lu Shen continue, "For someone like that to come to our Lu family's party is simply an insult to our place."
