Li Wei Yang smiled faintly: "I don't understand whatDajie is saying. I only know that I am a daughter of the Li family, and Fuqinis who we rely on. If Dajie announces that Dajie is loyal to the Jiang familyin front of Fuqin, wouldn't this leave Fuqin conflicted? No matter how good theJiang family is, you are still surnamed Li. You should not forget this!"

Li Chang Le's entire face had changed. Her eyes becamecruel, her beautiful face and facade replaced with a terrifying sight: "I willnever forgive you! Just you wait!"

"What did you say?!" A voice thundered behind them. LiChang Le turned around. Li Wei Yang greeted him: "Fuqin."

Li Chang Le saw Li Xiao Ran and his serious face andpaled. She realized Li Xiao Ran had overheard what she said to Li Wei Yang, astorm of unease stirred in her heart. She bit her lip and forced herself tocalm down. She did not know what to say, so she sincerely knelt down and said:"Fuqin, nu er has returned."

Li Xiao Ran frowned: "Stand up."

Li Chang le stood, her lips drawn in a taut line. Sheslowly looked up, her gaze steadily meeting his - sharp and clear: "Fuqin,Muqin was killed by Li Wei Yang." These words sliced through the air like ablade.

"What did you say?" Li Xiao Ran was momentarilyblinded by fury. A thundering storm swept over his expressions.

Li Chang Le resented Li Wei Yang. Seeing Li Wei Yangstanding there, she felt her blood, boiling and rushing up her throat. Sheforcefully swallowed it and snapped: "Fuqin, I said Muqin was killed by Li WeiYang! Muqin was still fine when I left, how could she pass away in such a shorttime?! It's all part of Li Wei Yang's schemes. Fuqin, you and Muqin weremarried for decades, how could you be so indifferent to this?!"

Li Xiao Ran's face grew even more unpleasant. He wasfurious because he had been asked this question time after time by others andGuogong Furen in particular! He tightly clenched his fists!

Li Wei Yang let out a sigh: "Dajie, Muqin unexpectedlydied because of her illness. Dajie, do not make things difficult for Fuqin, ithas been hard for him too."

"Shut up!" Li Chang Le screamed, "I want anexplanation! I cannot let Muqin die for no reason like this!"

"You are the one who needs to shut up!" After shockcame anger, Li Xiao Ran fiercely eyed Li Chang Le like a merciless wolf,wishing he could tear her apart. He gritted his teeth, his anger flaring. Everyword seemed to be spoken through clenched teeth: "From here on how, don't evermention this again!"

Li Chang Le had not expected Li Xiao Ran to befurious. It was as if she had received a slap to the face: "Fuqin, you... I amyour favorite nu er, how could you treat Muqin and me like this?""

"You want to be like your Muqin and oppose me?" LiXiao Ran suddenly regained his calm, his apathetic stare fixated on her,sneering. Li Chang Le had never seen his face like this before, not onlychilling but strange and ominous.

Li Wei Yang smiled. Li Xiao Ran had faced pressurefrom the Jiang family for a while now. He was still a proud and reservedindividual with a strong personality. He could tolerate Da Furen for so manyyears to save face for Jiang Guogong, not because he feared the Jiang family.Of course, Da Furen and Li Chang Le did not think of it that way. They alwaysbrought up the Jiang family to threaten him and finally exhausted the last ofhis patience.

The hostility in Li Wei Yang's eyes shone through. Sheslowly closed her eyes, suppressing her disdain. When she reopened her eyes,her face was calm and indifferent. She simply said: "Fuqin, you should go backto the hall, many guests are still waiting."
