The Young Matriarch

Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Out of Control

Xue Qiu quickly finished off the last french fry, his cheeks bulging like two little balls.

Bai Chuwei took out a palm-sized folding computer from her pocket, gently pushed it open, and revealed a small keyboard that was just the right size for Xue Qiu, the hamster.

Xue Qiu looked up, a hint of sympathy in his eyes, “Ancestor, are you really going to do this? Do you have a grudge against Xu Xingchen?”

Bai Chuwei nodded lazily, “Yeah, there’s a grudge.”

Having been enlightened by Bai Chuwei for twenty years on Yunwu Mountain and spending all day with her, Xue Qiu could be considered the creature most familiar with her. However, it still didn’t know they were in a world contained within a book, where Xu Xingchen, that goddamn male lead, had once done a series of evil things to her in the book.

Xue Qiu energetically tapped away at the keyboard while Bai Chuwei leaned lazily nearby, sipping red wine.

Xue Qiu effortlessly hacked into the banquet’s backstage network equipment, and even took the time to recommend to Bai Chuwei, “Ancestor, the fries are really good, the fried chicken drumsticks too, try some!”

Bai Chuwei didn’t want to bother with it at all.

“All set.”

In the banquet hall, the butler saw that something was amiss, and immediately took over the conversation, “The second young miss is in Europe for a design competition and can’t come back, but she recorded a greeting video for you, old master.”

The second daughter of the Duan Family, Duan Xueqin, was a well-known designer. After going abroad in her early years, she married a Chinese-born rich businessman in Europe, and now her son was already in his teens.

The old master of the Duan Family did not wish to bring up the matter of the DNA test report and immediately nodded his agreement.

The backstage staff operated the computer, opened the video sent in advance by the second miss, and immediately projected a video image onto the hundreds-inch screen at the front of the banquet.

Standing next to the old master, Duan Feihan looked at the document without a change in expression, just about to hand it to the butler.

A cool breeze blew from nowhere through the hall, circling at Duan Feihan’s fingertips. The documents flew out of the butler’s hands, fluttering like snowflakes on a winter’s day.

The old master’s face turned green!

What the hell is going on? Where did this evil wind come from?

Sheets of A4 paper flew toward the guests, and among those present were wealthy students from Henghua First Middle School—

“What is this? A DNA test report?”

“Holy shit, does this show that Xu Xingchen and Duan Xingye are brothers?”

“My god, does that mean Xu Xingchen is the Duan Family’s illegitimate child?”

“…”

The crowd, faces alight with excitement, pointed and gossiped about Xu Xingchen, who now looked rather embarrassed. Just then, the video began to play on the big screen.

The person appearing in the video was not Duan Xueqin, the second young miss whom everyone had expected, but a man and a woman dressed in suspect attire from the police station.

The woman, with a mix of snot and tears, cried out to the camera, “I confess, I confess everything. Yes, it was me, I paid to hire someone to kill Duan Xingye.”

“But I had no choice. Only if Duan Xingye died, the Duan Family would completely lose their eldest grandson, and then my son Xingchen might have a chance to enter the family rightfully. But… but Duan Xingye didn’t die after jumping from the building, did he? He’s still alive and kicking without even a disability.”

“Officer, I’m wrong, I really know I’m wrong…”

Everyone at the banquet: “????”

What the hell is all this?

No… putting aside how they got a police interrogation video, what the hell is up with this content?

Among the crowd, a playboy rich second-generation who often hung out at the Nightcolor Bar suddenly shouted, “I know this woman, she’s the manager of the Nightcolor Bar, Xu Li? Holy shit, it really is a woman’s heart that is the most poisonous. Is she hiring someone to commit murder?”

Xu Xingchen’s face turned so pale, it was extreme. Where… where did this video come from?
