The famous actor made a brief appearance.
Charles was already charmed and smitten.
He glanced at Mrs. Yin, the intent very clear.
Mrs. Yin thought to herself: It may be beneath my dignity to serve a famous actor, but it can win Charles’s favor!
She agreed happily!
The famous actor handed the cat into her arms.
Intentionally loud enough for others to hear, the famous actor said, "This cat was given by Mrs. Yin, it listens to her best."
Mrs. Yin was unaware it was a trap.
Still smiling, she said, "Such a precious breed of cat, so gentle and well-behaved."
A cold look flashed in the famous actor’s eyes as she turned to the crowd.
Su Ruanruan gestured to her with a raised glass, signaling for her to leave.
The actor admired her greatly.
Her heart was stirred.
In the past, these distinguished nobles treated her like a plaything, to be given away at will.
Today, she could manipulate them with a clap of her hands.
The famous actor exited the scene.
Ladies eager to cozy up to Charles and Mrs. Yin gathered around.
Song Bing was adorable, like a peacock fanning its tail.
The ladies spoke with festive cheer.
"So cute! Such soft fur!"
"And those eyes, so blue!"
"Anything given by Mrs. Yin must be precious!"
...
Amidst the praise, Mrs. Yin was very pleased.
She became even more affectionate towards the cat, kissing its little head.
While everyone was praising Mrs. Yin, no one noticed Mrs. Gu walking gracefully towards the Van Gogh masterpiece, holding a small bottle of perfume in her hand.
A tiny drop fell onto the Van Gogh "masterpiece."
The faint scent filled the air, reaching Song Bing’s sensitive nose.
Suddenly, there was a fierce cry.
Song Bing struggled out of Mrs. Yin’s arms and leaped.
It landed on the Van Gogh masterpiece.
Everyone was stunned.
The hall erupted in screams!
The Van Gogh masterpiece, a cat’s careless act could ruin it!
Charles was in a panic!
He looked at Mrs. Yin, hoping she could do something.
Mrs. Yin was petrified: Why did the tame cat suddenly go mad?
As she was still dazed, Mrs. Gu gently reminded her, "Mrs. Yin, please stop the cat quickly, it was given to Miss Shui by you, it listens to you the most!"
Mrs. Yin was in utter chaos.
She couldn’t think and just followed Mrs. Gu’s lead.
She stared at Song Bing, calling gently, "Song Bing, dear, come down!"
Song Bing stood on the Van Gogh masterpiece.
It cried out twice, full of pride.
It paid no attention to Mrs. Yin, it just smelled something it liked on the painting.
Then, Song Bing began to claw fiercely.
Scratching, digging, biting... crying out in its mouth.
The Van Gogh masterpiece was its plaything!
In the hall, screams went up and down, lively indeed!
Old Charles fell to his knees on the ground.
This was borrowed from the national museum, now destroyed... he was finished!
But Mrs. Charles was still clear-headed!
She shouted, "This Mrs. Yin is deliberately destroying the Van Gogh masterpiece! She has ill intentions!"
Coincidentally, the famous actor returned in changed clothes.
Seeing the scene, she immediately started crying for help.
"Oh my God! The Van Gogh painting is ruined!"
"Mrs. Yin, what grudge do you have against Mr. Charles that you would harm him like this?"
"You gave me this cat, but this was your true intention."
...
Mrs. Yin was at a loss for words.
She tried to salvage the situation by accusing the famous actor.
She said, "This cat was not a gift from me, you framed me!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Charles slapped her.
She said fiercely, "You have repeatedly acknowledged that you gave the cat, and now you deny it when disaster strikes!"
Old Charles stood up with the help of others.
He looked at Mrs. Yin, then at Yin Mingzhu.
He said slowly, "I declare, the engagement between the Charles family and the Yin Family is annulled!"
