Chapter 643: 337 Unashamed_2
Zhu Wentao stood up and gently comforted her, “Don’t be afraid, I’ll go talk to your mother.”
“Wuwu~” Zhu Xiangxiang cried, burying herself in his arms, her sobs like a little kitten’s, instantly melting people’s hearts.
Feeling the delicate body in his arms, Zhu Wentao stiffened for a moment, his hand awkwardly suspended in midair.
“Dad, I’m the fake daughter, but I’m the victim too. But what about Ming Jing? She’s the one scheming to be the fake daughter; she lied to both you and mother and fooled everyone. Why does she get the love of my mother? I’m not content, I’m not content at all….”
Zhu Xiangxiang’s words were filled with resentment and injustice, making people feel sorry for her.
“Growing up, I was always the daughter of the Zhus, loved by my parents. I thought I was the happiest little princess in the world until one day, Ming Jing appeared. She returned to the Zhus as the true daughter, took away everyone’s attention, and even took away the company dad had worked so hard to build. Everyone praised her as if she were a descended Bodhisattva. But does she truly have no ulterior motives? Her return to the Zhus was a calculated move, seizing the property of Zhu Group was just the first step, who knows what other schemes she has?”
Zhu Wentao’s eyes gradually grew darker, his palm falling on Zhu Xiangxiang’s shoulder, “Don’t cry anymore, Dad won’t let her scheme succeed.”
“It’s not that I’m being petty and suspicious; it’s just that I can’t bear to see you, mother, and Grandma being deceived by her. No matter how good she is, she’s not your biological daughter. People’s hearts are unpredictable.”
“On this trip, I actually went to Siji Town. Do you know what I found out?” Zhu Xiangxiang shook her head.
“Ming Jing is truly terrifying.”
Zhu Wentao asked urgently, “What did you find out?”
Zhu Xiangxiang made a frightened expression: “No… I can’t say.” frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Zhu Wentao spoke gently, “Don’t be afraid, Dad is here. Dad will protect you.”
Zhu Xiangxiang looked at the man close in front of her, his gaze full of deep concern. She bit her pale lips, hesitated for a moment, and spoke softly, “Ming Jing, she’s a murderer…”.

Zhu Xiangxiang left the study, the sorrow on her face instantly vanishing, replaced by a smug smile.
She had to give Zhu Wentao a strong dose of conviction; otherwise, his hesitations would make him miss the opportunity.
As for the murderer, huh.
This was a dead end.
There was no way for her to solve it.
Unless she could prove Ming Xin’s existence and clear herself of the murder suspicion, but at the same time, it would only strengthen the belief that she had been scheming to impersonate the true daughter all along.
This time, I would like to see how you justify yourself.
Don’t blame her for being ruthless; it was Lin Qing who did not leave anyone with a way out. In order to please Ming Jing, she would even go as far as to send her abroad.
She was curious about what kind of expression Lin Qing would show when she learned the truth: her beloved daughter had been deceiving her all along.
That scene must be a good one to watch.
After Zhu Xiangxiang left, Li Juan emerged from a corner.
The study’s soundproofing was too good, she couldn’t hear what the two had said, but from Zhu Xiangxiang’s barely suppressed smug smile, it was clear that she had no good intentions.
She needed to tell her lady as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, Ming Jing was not surprised, “On the first day of next month, it’s grandma’s birthday. It will be lively.”
“Yes, Madam has been busy preparing for the event this past month. Since it’s the Grandma’s important birthday this year, a grand celebration is only right. I see she has written invitations filling several sacks; looks like she’s planning to invite all the celebrities in Jiangzhou.”
Ming Jing handed a wooden box to Li Juan, “The night before the birthday banquet, give Grandma honey water.”
Li Juan wiped her hands on her apron and carefully took the wooden box.
A smart person wouldn’t ask too many questions, just do as told.
The lady would never harm anyone.
Ming Jing walked to the French window, her head shrouded in dark clouds, the faint light piercing through layers of clouds casting hazy rays.
Cold wind swept across the bare treetops, leaving desolation everywhere.
“The real winter is coming…”

Huang Chao gulped down several mouthfuls of water, wiped his mouth, and said bitterly, “In order to obtain some information, I sold my dignity. It wasn’t easy for me. Xiao Fei, how are you going to compensate me?”
“Don’t you like the house in Swan City? I’ll give it to you.”
Huang Chao gasped, “You’re really generous, since you’re so sincere, I won’t sell you short.”
Huang Chao walked to the door, looked around, carefully closed the door to the ward, and came over, lowering his voice, “I didn’t know until I checked, and I was shocked. The Qinglong Association is so powerful in Jiangzhou, they’re like the local boss, even if the Heavenly King comes, they hold no weight.”
