Murong Cheng knew his sister too well; a bad premonition rose in his heart.
"You don't need to thank me, eat more."
Jiang Shiyu kept putting food into Murong Xue's bowl. Anyone who didn't know might think the sister-in-law and sister-in-law got along so well.
Song Yu was astonished, looking at Jiang Shiyu as if she were a stranger.
Jiang Shiyu's boyfriend had been snatched by her daughter, and the two were like fire and water.
Jiang Shiyu actually served Murong Xue food, as if trying to appease her.
What was going on?
Although Hao Hao was young, he could see clearly. "Mommy, what's wrong with this bad woman? Did she put poison in the food?"
Before Hao Hao could finish, Song Yu covered his mouth. "Don't talk nonsense."
With the elder present, Hao Hao's usual chatter was tolerated, but such words could not be spoken in front of the elder.
"Sister-in-law, I can serve myself. You eat too, don't go hungry, my brother would be heartbroken!"
Murong Xue propped her chin, idly poking at the rice and meat in her bowl with a chopstick.
Her face was smiling, but her eyes darted around in their sockets.
"It's fine," Jiang Shiyu said, placing a piece of honey-glazed abalone onto Murong Xue's plate.
Before they arrived, the elder had heard about this young girl's exploits.
It was said that this young girl and Murong Xue were incompatible, and there were great conflicts between them.
Yet, seeing them today, it was nothing like the rumors.
Beside Jiang Shiyu, the man's brows were tightly furrowed, not relaxing for a long time.
This little woman was too abnormal and strange today.
Even if she had amnesia and didn't know about her past grievances with Murong Xue, did she not take his words to heart?
Or was there some unspeakable secret between these two?
That caused this little woman to try and appease Murong Xue?
"Sister-in-law is truly virtuous. Brother, you've truly married a good wife..."
Murong Xue smiled meaningfully, took a bite of the abalone, as if brewing something, her words carrying hidden meaning.
"Naturally, you don't need to tell me. I know very well." Murong Cheng picked up his chopsticks and served Jiang Shiyu. "You eat too, don't just serve others."
"No need, I don't have much appetite..."
Hearing Jiang Shiyu's voice, Murong Xue felt immensely pleased.
Of course, you don't have an appetite!
How could you have an appetite!
It's right that you don't have an appetite!
Murong Xue picked up her water glass, took a sip of juice, and then smiled, saying, "Brother, I recently discovered something interesting. Since Grandpa and the Murong family relatives are all here, don't you want to hear about it? It's a funny story about sister-in-law!"
Murong Cheng's chopsticks suddenly paused.
The lines on the man's brows deepened.
His gaze suddenly darkened, like the surface of the sea under the night sky, calm and without ripples, yet unfathomably deep.
Murong Xue gracefully rose. "As everyone knows, Jiang Shiyu is Grandpa Bai's biological granddaughter. Grandpa Bai is like Hua Tuo reborn, his fame renowned for generations. However, before sister-in-law joined the Murong family, her reputation was not very good..."
Everyone looked at Murong Xue in astonishment.
Hearing these words, their expressions changed.
They hadn't expected Murong Xue to expose her sister-in-law's shortcomings in front of so many relatives and friends.
"Of course, if it's the woman brother likes, others can't say much. But with her character, it's really hard to change such bad habits. I know brother doesn't mind, but the Murong family is a prominent aristocratic family. Such a woman staying in the Murong family will only be a disaster!"
"You'd better shut up immediately! I don't care what she did in the past, I don't care. But since she became Madam Rong, she has never done anything to betray the Murong family. Are you taking out your personal grudges on her?"
Murong Cheng was furious, tightly gripping the chopsticks in his hand.
It seemed that with one more ounce of strength, the chopsticks would shatter.
"Brother, you're still protecting this woman? I never took out my personal grudges on her..."
Murong Xue suddenly lowered her tone, her voice revealing a hint of a sob.
Then she covered her face, looking as if she were about to cry and was extremely wronged.
Anyone who didn't know would think someone had bullied her and inflicted great injustice.
"Speak properly." Murong Cheng's voice was very cold. Because he was suppressing his anger, it was very low.
Even though his voice was not loud, such a cold and deep voice echoing in the private room felt exceptionally chilling, making one's scalp tingle.
"Brother, you still don't believe me? Do I have to present evidence for you to believe that Jiang Shiyu is not a good woman at all?"
Murong Xue took out a document from her bag.
She held it up.
Instantly, everyone's gaze locked onto the document.
Song Yu's face turned ashen, not knowing what her daughter was up to.
The moment Jiang Shiyu saw the folder in Murong Xue's hand, her eyes froze, and then her face instantly lost all color.
Even her lips turned pale.
After everyone had a clear look, Murong Xue slowly said, "Everyone may not know, but the Ling Sheng Group recently lost a very important confidential document... this one in my hand!"
As her words fell, all the collateral and direct relatives of the Murong family present changed their expressions.
Confidential document?
"How did it get into your hands?" Song Yu almost fainted.
"Mom, of course, I didn't steal it. This document--"
Murong Xue suddenly looked at Jiang Shiyu and sneered, "I snatched it back from sister-in-law, Jiang Shiyu! You personally stole company documents and wanted to sell them to your lover!"
"Lover?!"
The crowd erupted in an uproar.
Elder Rong's eyes widened in shock.
How could this be possible? Jiang Shiyu was the granddaughter personally raised by Grandpa Bai. Her character and morals could not be lacking.
How could she steal documents for a lover?
"Come in!" Murong Xue clapped her hands, then looked towards the door.
The door to the private room opened, and an ordinary-looking man walked in. The man was still wearing a suit, like a company employee.
"This is the manager of Ling Sheng's rival company, Hu Xiang. After I discovered their affair, I warned him of the consequences of doing so, and only then did Hu Xiang confess his affair with Jiang Shiyu!"
"If I hadn't discovered Jiang Shiyu stealing important company documents in time, I wouldn't have known about Hu Xiang and Jiang Shiyu's affair! Brother, take a good look, this is your wife, the young madam of the Murong family! Someone like this is not worthy of being a daughter-in-law of the Murong family!"
Murong Xue shouted loudly, her venomous gaze fixed on Jiang Shiyu.
Jiang Shiyu suddenly stood up. "I did not commit adultery, nor did I steal documents. You're talking nonsense! What evidence do you have to prove that I stole it?"
Murong Xue, as if she had anticipated Jiang Shiyu saying this, produced a fingerprint analysis and surveillance footage.
