Chapter 707 “A Good Play’s Opening (2)”

“I-”

Muzhen had cut off the girl’s word again.

“Besides, if she really was your savior then why would she collude with the dragons? What’s more, my disciple has already investigated the matter, the name written on the invite slip is Ho Cui Cui and that’s a fact. It’s the key evidence.”

That’s right, Leng’er already finished off the one selling the invite slips. There won’t be anyone able to prove its this bitch who was there that day. No invite slip, no right to board the dragon boat. The plan is flawless and the chief will know who to trust.

“Ahumph!” Making a dry cough, Chief Wu Wei turns to Bai Yan, “Miss, do you have anything to say?”

Perhaps its due to the similarity this girl shared with his son but the father instinctively wanted to give the benefit of the doubt to an unknown stranger.

“It’s pointless to say anything, better yet, why don’t I let others be the judge instead.” Raising the corner of her lip, she openly grins at the approaching figure that’s coming their way in the distance.

Walking behind the leading familiar individual was a fatty. Panting hard like he’s about to have an anxiety attack, the main witness to this story clearly didn’t want to be here despite being the key to everything.

Mu Leng (student) did not think much of the new arrivals at first, but that came to a stumbling halt as soon as she recalled who the fatty was. Croaking like a damaged frog, panic instantly grips the girl’s heart.

This fatty is still alive? Damn it! She harshly clenched that fist in a vain attempt to quell that flame. As long as I don’t admit anything then these people can’t do anything to me.

“Xun Huan, why are you here?” the mother asks her son after noticing his arrival.

The womanizer clicked that haughty tongue, disappointed in his parent’s folly: “If I didn’t come then are you and Father going to be blinded by these people? Mu Leng, I never thought you to be such a person.”

“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Sensing the danger looming overhead, the once high standing girl falters once again.

“Hoho,” sarcastic in his voice, the womanizer doesn’t relent. “Did you tell my father and mother that the girl who saved Huan Yin is this Ho Cui Cui? But from what I know she sold her invite slip to this merchant so how could she have been on the dragon boat that day?”

Hearing the rock drop in her heart, Mu Leng fires her venomous gaze over to the fatty as a warning.

If this man knows what’s good for him then he will deny everything. If he doesn’t then don’t blame me for being ruthless!

But unlike that day where he’s nearly assassinated, the fat merchant was now a whole new person altogether. With backing, what did he need to fear? Immediately his resentful self began to spill everything.

“Second Young Master, the one who bought my invite slip that day is this woman. It’s her,” pointing to Bai Yan, the fatty then stares coldly at the other party. “But Elder Muzhen’s apprentice found me, forcing me to paint out the contour of the lady that day. Under duress, I could only do as they demanded. However, I never expected them to take a stab at my life as soon as I was finished with that portrait. Please get justice for me!”

Mu Leng’s complexion had gone deathly white, her feet instinctively taking a step backwards.

It’s still excusable if it was a mistaken identity, but if its discovered that I deliberately threw a fake in despite knowing the truth then it’s a huge crime!

Thinking of the consequences, she knew she must twist the story before its too late. “Lies! When did I do that to you? Xun Huan, don’t listen to their nonsense, I don’t know who this man is!”

“To tell you the truth Mu Leng, even without this man here today, just the fact that this lady is Bai Yan is enough for me to determine its her that day!”

What did he mean by that? The high standing girl didn’t understand what’s going on and lapsed out for a moment.
