employee dinner, Du Ming would be the one treating them, but they didn't expect it to be Li Chen.Zhou Kai'an thought Zhang Xiao was shameless, but he didn't expect him to be so shameless. He frowned..."What do you want me to say This lock breaking isn't my fault." Luo Ningxi raised her eyes calmly, with an innocent expression.

"It's none of your business The things were sent by you, whose business is it then" Jian Ningyi screamed excitedly, "I kindly asked you to design jewelry for my son, hoping to ease the relationship between you and my grandfather. I didn't expect you to be so vicious and curse my son! If you don't give us an explanation, your Luo Group can just wait for a lawyer's letter! The Li family will not let you go!"

Li Jianbin, seeing this, also hurriedly took out his attitude. "You're right! Luo Ningxi, you've gone too far! We chose to let go of the incident at the last show, but I didn't expect you to push your advantage!"

Though the Li family had their own agendas, they were surprisingly united against the outside world. Luo Ningxi couldn't help but smile at this odd sight.

So she was waiting here all along...

To take advantage of the situation to make things difficult for her and the Luo Corporation

"Folks, before you start throwing accusations around, could you at least provide some evidence"

Luo Ningxi spoke, walking to Jian Nini's face and snatching the silver chain from her hand.

"What are you doing Trying to destroy evidence!"

Jian Ningyi spoke as she tried to grab back the silver lock, but her wrist was firmly held by a large hand.

Raising her eyes, she met the man's gaze. His eyes were as cold as ice, sending a chill through her instantly. She froze in place!

Li Bohen stood behind Luo Ningxi, the two of them very close, so close that Luo Ningxi could feel his breath. "Since it's broken, of course we have to see how it broke. What are you nervous about"

"Li Boheng, don't be so out of line." Li Jiancheng acted like a fox whose tail had been stepped on, reflexively rushing forward to grab Jian Ningyi's hand. "Are you going to turn against the Li family for this outsider, Luo Ningxi!"

Li Bocen sneered, disdainfully curling his lips, "Don't try to intimidate me with the Li family. I've been at odds with you all for days now, I'm just telling the truth."

"You!"

"That's enough! Do you want to make this house even messier!" Li Jiancheng was about to speak, but he was interrupted by Li Lao Ye's sharp voice!

His aged and profound eyes scanned Luoningxi, then turned to Li Bohan, pressing his hand against his nose and coughing violently several times.

"Cough cough... Let her take a look. I want to see what else she can figure out."

The air once again fell silent.

Luningxi's slender fingers rubbed against the silver chain in her hand.

The familiar, comforting scent of cedar lingered around him. She only needed to tilt her head slightly to see his exquisitely sculpted side profile.

Luo Ningxi lowered her eyes, stepped aside, keeping a distance from Li Bichen, and raised the lock in her hand calmly, "Everyone, this Longevity Lock isn't the one I gave to Mrs. Li today."

"This silver chain is the one you just gave me, Miss Luo. For your sake, you even came up with such a ridiculous excuse"

Jian Ningyi immediately refuted.

Li Jianbin frowned and questioned, "You just came to deliver the lock! We were all watching! How could it not be you who brought it!"

"The longevity lock I designed for Mrs. Li should have a cloud pattern on the back, but this one doesn't. So even if it was possibly switched, the purpose... to break it in public view, is naturally to frame me."

Luo Ningxi spoke, her words meant for everyone to hear, but her eyes remained fixed on Li Bochen.

Although I didn't originally plan to draw auspicious clouds, the design was accidentally leaked, so I made some last-minute changes. Exactly how it happened… I don't even know anymore.

Li Boche met the woman's cunning gaze, and his heart already understood most of it. The haze in his eyes deepened by a few points.

So, Lon Ningxi discovered that someone was investigating her!

Now her eyes were filled with suspicion, wondering if she and Jian Ningyi had conspired to trick her

Damn it, does this woman even have a conscience!

"Jian Ningyi, what on earth is going on Is this lock in your hand really a gift from Miss Luo!"

Master Li's deep voice sent a shiver down Jian Ningyi's spine!

She looked at Li Bichen and Luo Ningxi in disbelief. The lock she made according to the design, clearly had auspicious clouds on the back!

Now that there is no cloud of auspiciousness, it is obviously something that Li Bochen added later!

It's a pity that she didn't notice the difference back then because time was pressing.

But most hateful of all, Li Boche... actually really plotted against me for Luo Ningxi! Plotted against the child in my belly!!

"No, Dad, this lock is the one Ning Xi sent. She's just trying to mislead you..."

“To prove whether or not I'm lying, it’s simple!”

Jian Ningyi's heart suddenly surged with panic. She hastily retorted, "You would say anything to get away with this. Why should I believe you"

Luo Ningxi's smile widened, she didn't answer her and addressed the crowd herself, "Everyone, the materials I brought for the longevity lock are special. Since the birthday banquet began, no one else has left the house. That being said, if this lock was replaced by someone, then my genuine one must still be at the Li family ancestral home. As long as Mr. Li is willing to look for it, he will definitely find it."

As soon as the words left her lips, Jian Ningyi's body trembled violently. The hatred in her eyes instantly consumed Luo Ningxi!

Lord Li's face was even more profound than ink, with wrinkles all twisting together.

"Dad, don't listen to her. Today is Lele's birthday party. She just made such a fuss out of nothing and ruined everyone's fun. Lele isn't happy either!"e coat that Li Bochen had hung there, and a sly smile curled her lips. "I forgot to wear my coat when I went out today, so I'll borrow yours for a while. It's also good for me to go back and report to...
