"D-Dad…" he stammered in fear.

"Shut up!"

Lihua narrowed her eyes. "Now this makes me more suspicious that he is behind sending this goon. Shouldn't we find out who bribed him to come here?"

Ruomei froze. Her expression turned ashen and her heart began to loudly drum in her chest in sheer panic.

"T-there is no need, Lixue. I think it's really a coincidence. He might have been drunk and slipped inside her room…"

Wen Yaoting quickly supported her. "Y-Yes! This goon has got nothing to do with me! I don't even know him!"

"This recording doesn't say so."

As Wei stepped in the room, his regal aura made everyone quieten down. His sharp stare fell upon Wen Yaoting and he subconsciously took a step back.

He glanced at Fu Renshu and nodded. "This is the recording that we found of Mr. Wen Yaoting talking to a certain woman in a corridor."

Ruomei stiffened.

Re-recording?

Lihua was enjoying Ruomei's state that was rapidly worsening. Mingshen smirked.

Just look at how you are enjoying yourself. Song Jia, your sister is having so much fun~

The recording that Fu played showed Wen Yaoting talking to Ruomei in the corridor.

"This CCTV footage doesn't have any sound. But we got an anonymous recording of their conversation."

Lihua curiously looked at her husband. His gaze fell upon and he softly smiled.

Only Wei knew that Ruomei was going to meet Wen Yaoting to reveal her plan. Maybe he planted someone to recoed their conversation.

But then she got a doubt in her mind. She walked up to him and whispered, "If you had the recording, then why didn't you know that Wen Yaoting ordered the goon to attack Jiang Ruiling?"

Wei tilted his head. "I didn't listen to it. I wanted to have the recording just in case. My only purpose was to get it."

"..."

Lihua coughed and facepalmed.

"Wei. Next time, do listen to the recording. If you had known about this goon, we could have stopped him."

Wei seriously said, "I will do what my wife says."

She urgently whispered as she realized a problem. "But wait a minute! Will it not expose what Shi Ruomei said about Jiang Ruiling and Shen Yang's love? That will ruin our plan."

He smiled. "Don't worry. That part comes in the beginning. I have already told Renshu to play it from the part that is beneficial to us."

Lihua beamed. "My husband is a genius!"

A doting smile curled his lips, feeling happy by his wife's praise.

The guests were utterly shocked to see Ruomei in the frame. Even the Old Madam was aghast and covered her mouth.

"What is Shi Ruomei doing there?"

"Why is she talking to Wen Yaoting?"

One of them gasped, "Oh my, did she leak her plan to him?"

Fu Renshu said, "I will play the recording."

'I want that man to actually violate that bitch!'

'...Yes! His only job is to wait for Shen Yang to come and then trap them. But until then, that man can have fun with her. I think he will be happy to do it.'

'I don't care! That bitch tried to set me up. I will take my revenge! She wanted to frame me for attacking her. I will show what a real attack is…''

Everybody clearly recognized Ruomei and Wen Yaoting's voice. They couldn't believe that they set everything up.

Jiang Ninghong coldly said, "I didn't know that Miss Shi hated my daughter so much."

Jiang Weiyuan and Jiang Li kept their silence but the dangerous expression laced on their face was evident.

Ruomei paled. "No, no! Stop this! This is not me! Somebody is framing me! I-I know it's Lixue! It's you, right? You are doing this to throw me out of the Jiang family and Wei's life!"

Lihua smiled. "Shi Ruomei. I don't need to do this. Wei and I are in a really happy marriage. He doesn't even glance at other women besides me, much less you. Your presence doesn't threaten me at all, so I don't need to set you up."

Ruomei quickly said, "Old Madam, Aunt Ninghong. You have to believe me! I-I don't know this man at all. I will never harm Jiang Ruiling! She is like my sister."

Jiang Ruiling smiled. "That is some nice sisterhood you have there. A sister trying to ruin another sister. The sad part is that I don't even know why you hate me so much. As far as I know, I have not done anything to offend you to force you to do this."

"No, Jiang Ruiling. It's all lies!"

"Do you deny that it's your voice and your body standing in the corridor talking to Wen Yaoting?"

The Old Madam grabbed her arm and pinched it so tightly that she winced in pain. "You...you really planned to ruin Jiang Ruiling!?"

She brought her closer and whispered so that only she could hear. "I don't care how you frame Lixue but you dare plot against Ruiling? How could you try to harm my granddaughter? By doing this, you were indirectly bringing the Jiang family down with her!"

Tears pooled in her eyes. "No Old Madam...I am innocent. I am sure that Lixue has done this!"

"Shut up! We are not dead and blind! We saw and heard everything and you are still denying it!"

Jiang Ruiling looked at Wen Yaoting. "Looks I was right."

Shen Yang coldly said, "I cannot believe that Mr. Wen would go this far to take his revenge."

Wen Yaoting gulped. Jiang Li grabbed his tie and suddenly strangled him. His fingers dug into his neck. "As I thought it was you…" his icy voice was so dangerous that Wen Yaoting almost pissed his pants.

"J-Jiang Li...you are misunderstanding…I-I didn't do this…"

"In the face of evidence, you are still saying that?"

Mu Qing gritted her teeth. "Didn't I tell you that he could go to any lengths to ruin a woman!"

Ruomei burst into tears. "Please believe me. I didn't-"

"Mhhmm…"

The goon mumbled and his head bobbed sideways as he slowly regained consciousness. He looked around. "W-what is happening?"

Shen Yang smiled. "Good timing. Since you have woken up, we can all hear the truth from you too."
