"Why don't you ask her? Ask her why was I 'hurting' her? " he says, narrowing his eyes at her sister.

"Mom.... " she sobs in her mother's embrace. Hui Yin cannot understand why these two are fighting. The last time they fought was when they were kids. Yinzhen never spoke ill of her sister or got angry at her. Why is he so angry?

On the other hand, Shi Lian is getting irritated by Cai Li's pretentious little act and who knows if both the siblings are faking the whole act? She doesn't want their drama here nor does she want to be get involved.

"Aunt, it's better if you sought these at your house," she says firmly. Her aunt looks at her, feeling ashamed as she purses her lips and grips her daughter's hand tightly.

"Shi, this is impolite," Sha Sha says to her, her big eyes begging her to not say such things.

"Oh no, sister. It's alright. She is right about it" Hui Yin says, then looks at Cai Li and Yinzhen, "You both, come to home right now. "

"Solve it later, dear. They are brother and sister after all. Let's eat our dinner first" Sha Sha chimes in. Apart from everything, Hui Yin is still her guest and it will be an insult if she leaves the dinner like this.

"We are truly sorry, sister. But I don't think we could stay here" she says in disappointment.

Shi Lian sighs a heave of relief knowing they won't stay here anymore.

Yinzhen first storm out of the room takes two steps at a time and finally reaching downstairs, he passes the hallways and is out of sight.

Hui Yin feels so embarrassed right now that she want to hide somewhere. She always tried to portray the upper-class dignified lady with two mature and humble children but she knows that's isn't true.

She tried to dress best, look the best, and have humble manners, just so she can show Sha Sha and Shi Lian that she is better than them and everyone but after this, she feels she has lost. Her integrity has been lost just by her children.

Anger rises but she tries to remain calm, at least here. She gives them the fakest and tightest smile and leaves the house with her daughter and her son who is already inside the car.

The car starts moving and in few seconds they are out of the Mo mansion.

Turning to her daughter, Sha Sha asks, "Shi Lian, what was happening there? " Shi Lian can see the worry in her face and she hates that she is worrying for them, for nothing.

"Let's get inside first" saying this, both of them head inside.

Once inside, Shi Lia takes her mother straight to the living room. On her way, she can smell the aroma of so many dishes, all her favorite. What a waste to cook so much!

The maids are in the room, clearing out the glasses and other refreshments. Shi Lian tells them to hurry snd after they are out of the room, she gestures her mother to sit.

Shi Lian is still debating whether she should tell the truth about Cai Li's scheme or not. Her mother does not need to know about this or worry about her. Telling her will make her worry more. It will be good for now to take her out of this complex problem.

"Cai Li and I were discussing over some topic and we had some misunderstanding. She got angry and tries to hit me but at that moment, Yinzhen came and stopped her. They started fighting among each other than" she lies without blinking or stumbling. She looks at her mother, who is frowning and she assumes her mother must have guessed.

"Oh my! Why was she going to hit you? " she exclaims. No, she is safe. She believes her.

Shi Lian shrugs, "Nothing serious. About the show, she must have heard something wrong snd came to confront it. "

Sha Sha is still confused. Her daughter is not saying things clearly. Her husband too, never told her anything in specific what he did, because according to him, she is delicate and he does not want to make her worry. Now her daughter is doing the same. She understands what they are trying to do but at least she has the right to know about it.

Sha Sha does not ask any further questions as she is aware she will not be getting the answers so she leaves the topic.

Shi Lian notices the frown on her mother's face snd guesses she must be upset about the whole drama.

"I am hungry. Shall we eat dinner? " she tries to say cheerfully in a way to change the topic. Her mother smiles faintly and nods.

**

At Zheng Yi's House

"Zhen! Explain! " his mother demands. The living room is so tensed, one can actually feel it.

"Cai Li tried to ruin Shi Lian's show" he grits out. The anger returns and he is fuming now. Although it shouldn't bother him he cannot help but get angrier that his sister will do something like this low.

"What? " Hui Yin says, her voice is neutral. She turns her head to Cai Li, who is sitting on the couch, looking rather bored. "Did you really did that? " she asks as if what her son told is unbelievable.

"So what? You will also scold me like him? " Cai Li yells, her voice telling she is frustrated.

"No dear, but tell me if it is true or not," her mother says, calmer than before. If she tried to ruin Shi Lian, she won't be angry at all, in fact, she will be satisfied.

"Yes, I tried to tarnish her dresses. I despise her and wanted to ruin her show" Cai Li says, clenching her teeth so she can control the tears.

"Oh, my daughter" Hui Yin reaches to hug her daughter.

Yinzhen looks at her and his mind cannot process what she is actually doing. Instead of scolding her, she is warming to her.

"I know just how much you hate her. So the plan failed? " she adds.

Cai Li nods, feeling humiliated. The memory of her father scolding her in the hotel flashes in her mind snd her fingers curls into a fist. She disappointed her father and he must hate her now. Her chin trembles at the thought.

"Mom! What are you doing? " Yinzhen bellows, his eyebrows knit together.

Hui Yin ignores him and focuses on Cai Li. "Does your father knows about this? " she asks, her voice hesitating.

On the mention of his name, she can feel the weight of her emotions inside that it is choking her. Her father clearly told her not to disclose their plan to anyone so she does not know whether to tell her mother or not.

Before she can speak, Yinzhen speaks for her, "Of course he does! He was also with her in this plan! "

Cai Li refuses to look up, look at anyone right now. She is already frustrated over Shi Lian and every time she acts too haughtily her blood burns.

"Mom! why aren't you saying something? She is wrong. Wrong! " Yinzhen argues.

"What is wrong with you? Why are taking the side of Shi Lian? "Cai Li questions, having enough of her brother's self-righteous commencement.

Yinzhen opens his mouth but nothing comes. What he can even say? He thought maybe the fact that tarnishing the dresses and doing something evil like this is wrong and that's what made him angry but now to think of it, it was because of Shi Lian. It had been because of Shi Lian all along.

"No words? Huh?" Cai Li mocks, sneering at him.

"Shut up! What you did is wrong and father is at wrong as well" he says, getting back to the topic.

"Zhen! " her mother warns.

"Oh, am I at wrong my son? " a voice speaks up. Everyone's eyes widen because they know just who is it. They turn their eyes to see Zheng Yi approaching. His eyes had a murderous look, his tie loose and he is staring right at Yinzhen.
