"Come here, show the guests away!" the head of the Zhu family then ordered.
Immediately, two burly men wearing black suits and black sunglasses walked in from outside the hall.
They walked up to Lan Ziye, and one of the men wearing black sunglasses said in a cold voice, "Miss Lan, please!"
Lan Ziye looked at the head of the Zhu family and said in a cold and firm voice, "I want to see the eldest lady!"
"Miss Lan, please!" The man in black sunglasses raised his voice a few notches, and at the same time, spiritual power was faintly visible on his body, and the threat was obvious.
Seeing this, Zhu Ning quickly stepped in front of Lan Ziye and shouted at the two men in sunglasses, "You have nothing to do here, get out!"
How could the man in sunglasses listen to Zhu Ning? The man in sunglasses continued to speak in a cold voice: "Miss San, please get out of the way!"
Zhu Ning took a deep breath, turned to look at the head of the Zhu family, and mustered up the courage to say, "Head, this is the eldest daughter of the Lan family, the fiancée of Mr. Chu. How could you treat Miss Lan like this?"
"I am doing this just for the sake of the Lan and Chu families. If she wasn't Miss Lan, the future mistress of the Chu family, and she had interfered in the affairs of my Zhu family, I would have kicked her out without any hesitation!" said the head of the Zhu family angrily.
"Who are you going to beat out?" A cold and majestic voice came from outside the hall, and then Chu Xixuan walked into the hall with a cold face.
The Zhu family's head looked even uglier, and he forced a smile and said, "Mr. Chu, you are here today not because of the matter of my eldest daughter-in-law, are you?"
"You're asking even though you already know the answer!" Chu Xixuan said rudely as he sat down in the main seat.
The Zhu family head remained firm and said, "This is an internal matter of our Zhu family, so please don't worry about it, Mr. Chu!"
"Call out the eldest lady!" Chu Xixuan said in a firm tone, as if he had not heard what the head of the Zhu family said.
The Zhu family head said: "Chu Xixuan, please don't be too overbearing. Even if the person standing here is your grandfather, the head of the Chu family, you must respect our family's privacy!"
"This is not a matter of privacy, this is a matter of human life. It's okay if you don't hand over the eldest lady today. I will ask grandfather to convene a meeting of the five major families and handle this matter openly!" Chu Xixuan said coldly.
"Now the one who died is just an illegitimate daughter. Master Chu, is it necessary for you to be so ruthless?" The head of the Zhu family was furious and his voice became louder.
"Zhu Fei is not only an illegitimate daughter, she is also a student of my Lanxuan Academy and my fiancée's best friend! Someone with such an identity died, and there was not even a chance to interrogate the murderer. Your Zhu family, are you slapping the face of my Lanxuan Academy, or the face of Chu Xixuan!" Chu Xixuan's voice also rose.
The head of the Zhu family knew that he had to invite the eldest lady today. He sighed and said to the rich servant, "Go and call the eldest lady over!"
"I remember the Zhu family has a torture hall. It's not appropriate to interrogate here, right?" Lan Ziye said.
At that time, she, Lan Rongrong and Jin Ruozhen rescued Zhu Ning from the prison cell. Lan Rongrong also found out that Zhu Ning was taken to the execution hall and was tried, convicted and imprisoned in front of many elders of the Zhu family.
The head of the Zhu family was so angry that his face turned green. He said angrily, "Why go to the torture hall when the crime hasn't been convicted yet?"
Zhu Ning lowered her head sadly: when she woke up from her coma that day, she had already been taken to the torture hall. What she saw were the elders of the Zhu family and a group of brothers and sisters who were gloating over her misfortune.
"Then convict him first!" Chu Xixuan said coldly.
