g, her shoulders shaking... Her whole body was trembling!"He Fengbei, would my grandfather be pleased down there Have you gone to ask him yourself" In the midst of brilliant lights and a grand celebra...Looking at the familiar face of that person, whose pupils suddenly contracted, his face turned pale, and his eyes were panicked.

Lu Ming's heart pounded with anticipation... This moment had finally arrived!

"Shen Xiujin lied to you!"

Lu Ming's eyes were burning with passion!

"Shut up!" Standing at the entrance of the conference room was none other than Shen Xiuqin, whose mind had regressed to that of an eight-year-old. Lu Mingchu's single sentence shattered everything. The man inside the room felt a surge of anger, his eyes glaring daggers at Lu Mingchu!

"Little one, listen to me explain."

The man nervously gazed across at the woman, his mouth dry.

There were other people in the conference room, Grandpa Shen, Xi Chen, and some executives from the Shen Corporation. Jian Tong's gaze swept across the crowd, but it paused on a particular person. For three seconds... she looked away. The smirk at the corner of her lips was so fleeting that one could hardly catch it, disappearing quickly beneath her composed facade.

But the man in the crowd in the meeting room, clearly saw the fleeting sneer at the corner of the woman's lips...He clenched his fist tightly, a pair of peach blossom eyes, staring intently at the woman.

At this moment, everyone was staring at Jian Tong.

Xichen Zhang opened his mouth: "Xiao Tong, Xiu didn't mean to deceive..."

"Alright, you explain." Under everyone's watchful eyes, the woman did not become enraged and furious as those in the know had expected. She simply calmly interrupted Xi Chen's bland explanation, looking placidly at Shen Xiu Jin across from her. Her tone was gentle, devoid of even a hint of anger: "Alright, you explain." No one could hear a trace of fire in her words... she was so incredibly calm.

Chapter 313: The Ugly Minds of Each

No one expected her to be so calm.

Xi Chen let out a sigh of relief, Lu Mingchu's eyes seemed to be able to shoot out cold rays, tightly pursed her lips, like a viper, staring intently at the couple.

There was also one other person in the crowd. Though he didn't seem as tense as Lu Mingchu, his rolling Adam's apple still indicated that he was very attentive to the movements of this couple.

Shen Xiujin's dark eyes stared nervously at the woman across from him:

“Little one,” he himself didn't realize, at this moment he was unusually nervous in his life: “I didn’t mean to deceive you. I just wanted you to stay by my side, but back then, you were too guarded towards me. Even when I said some things, I didn’t mean anything else, but you would instinctively guard yourself.”

"Child, I only hope that you'll stay by my side. That's why I resorted to this... I... had no other choice."

The woman listened to the man's words. He spoke a lot, but the more she heard, the more hopeless she felt.

This person, this person!

Her hand, silently slipped into her jacket pocket and clenched tightly.

It's like clutching onto the last vestiges of dignity and...and a sliver of hope.

No, she was still wrong.

"So, all of this, was it all designed by you" the woman calmly looked up and asked. "So from the beginning, it was a setup, wasn't it The whole thing about Italy getting injured, the amnesia, the mental decline... were those all lies concocted with the doctors"

"You are all actors, and I am the only audience, right"

Every word she asked was calm. From beginning to end, her speech remained slow and measured, as if she wasn't angry or upset at all. However, the repeated "right"s, when listened to carefully, still betrayed the turmoil within her heart.

She just wasn't very good at expressing that kind of excitement anymore. She wasn't as rebellious and headstrong as she was in her youth, not as eager to push back against everything and prove herself right. She no longer felt the urge to pour out her feelings, thoughts, and opinions all at once, as if desperate for the whole world to know.

No… she’s past that age.

I'm not easily provoked to emotional outbursts anymore.

"Child, I only hope that you can stay by my side like you did when you were young." The man gazed anxiously at the woman across from him.

"I didn't mean to lie to you. Can you forgive me"

The woman's lips moved slightly, a faint smile playing on them: "I'm in a bit of a state. Would you mind if I took some time to myself and gave you an answer later"

Her way of handling this matter was so peaceful.

Shen Xiujin stared intently at the woman across from him, his dark eyes filled with anxiety. They were deep and profound, a glimmer of light passing through them. He lowered his gaze, making a concession: "I'll wait for you."

Jian Tong curved her lips into a smile: "Good." She raised her head, her eyes meeting the man across from her with a gentle smile.

He turned and left.

Everyone in the know was waiting for a storm.

The sudden storm never arrived, and the gentle breeze simply passed.

Lu Ming's initial eyes were filled with resentment and anger: "Jian Tong, are you just going to leave like this"

The woman said, "It's truly difficult for Young Master Lu to go through so much trouble. I am merely a simple girl, how could I possibly be worthy of such effort Surely Young Master Lu wouldn't tell me, he's gone through all this just to see my joke, right"

Lu Mingchu abruptly stopped talking. He wanted to see the moment the truth was revealed, would this woman still have such deep feelings for someone surnamed Shen When the truth was exposed, he wanted to see if she would regret her decision to reject him in the past!

A handsome face, full of fierceness.

Gazing at that receding figure… but, behind all of this, she resorted to teaming up with the loathsome Xiao Heng. She forced Shen Xiujin to feign ignorance and helplessness once again, to stand out and stabilize the situation, all for the moment she saw Shen Xiujin in the Shen family! To see her regret! But... did she just dismiss him like that

The expected storm never came. Her disappointment and fury, the hate of being deceived, all... nothing!

Like a flat lake surface, so calm that not a ripple can be seen... Is that all there is
