At the entrance of the He Residence, reporters were swarming.
As Su Ruanruan got out of the car, flashes went off all around, and the reporters’ questions were sharp as knives.
[Miss Su, why won’t you let Lin Xianni see her biological son?]
[I heard Miss Su instigated her servants to harass Miss Lin.]
[Chen Er was acting under Miss Su’s orders, right?]
...
Su Ruanruan was extremely clever.
After pondering over the situation from start to finish, she figured out what Chen Er was all about.
Lin Xianni bypassed He Jitang and pinned the mess on her head.
Such an accusation, based on word of mouth, was indeed hard to clear.
Su Ruanruan let out a cold laugh.
At this moment, the housekeeper came over and whispered, "Miss Su, the one inside is going crazy, and the old lady can’t bear it anymore! Should we clear the scene? These reporters are spouting nonsense and will write anything they want."
Su Ruanruan glanced at him.
Then she said to those reporters, "Since Miss Lin has accused me, then please bear witness and let’s settle who is right and who is wrong today."
The housekeeper was taken aback.
He thought it was inappropriate.
Lin Xianni was an actress and was very good at playing the victim.
How could Miss Su, a demure person, compete with her?
Yet Su Ruanruan didn’t take it to heart.
She said, "The old lady trusts me, and little Ci’an calls me aunt. Naturally, I should handle this matter."
The housekeeper was impressed.
He made a gesture: "Please come in, young miss."
He then arranged for those reporters to enter the main hall of the He Residence.
*
Everyone went inside.
As expected, Lin Xianni was causing a scene.
She looked pitifully helpless, playing the part of a mother who had lost her child to a tee, but she did not mention that she had locked little Ci’an out on the balcony to freeze.
Su Ruanruan was seething inside.
But outwardly, she remained calm.
She first checked on the old lady, who seemed fine and simply needed to take Ren Dan.
The old matriarch of the He family came to.
She grasped Su Ruanruan’s hand and said, "Poor Ci’an has such a hard life to end up with such a selfish and self-serving mother."
Su Ruanruan was also feeling sad.
She gently comforted the old lady.
She said, "With me here, Ci’an will never be abandoned."
The old matriarch of the He family fought back tears and nodded.
After comforting the old lady, Su Ruanruan then slowly sat down on the red wood chair.
The housekeeper personally brewed her a cup of fragrant tea.
From beginning to end, she maintained the air of the hostess.
Lin Xianni was weeping in front of the reporters.
She said, "You all see, Su Ruanruan has taken over the He family’s property, and I have nowhere to go."
A beauty in tears is a sight that touches the heart.
She was also a mother who had lost her child, and the reporters were naturally inclined to side with her.
Su Ruanruan laughed lightly.
She said, "If I remember correctly, Miss Lin and my third brother are divorced. How is it that you’re involved in the affairs of the He Residence? Who calls the shots in the He Residence, what does that have to do with Miss Lin?"
The logic was undeniable!
The people present looked at Lin Xianni with a touch of skepticism in their eyes.
Lin Xianni felt guilty.
She changed tack and said, "What about the matter of you instigating Chen Er to harass me?"
In order to bring Su Ruanruan down, she was willing to ruin her own reputation.
She covered her face and wept, "He saw my body! A woman’s body is sacred, I cannot live on!"
With those words.
Chen Er exclaimed his innocence: "I was forced to see it! It was her who inexplicably undressed!"
The scene erupted into chaos, a scandalous sight.
So he did see it!
Su Ruanruan coughed lightly, feeling a mix of exasperation and amusement.
This pair was indeed outrageous, one daring to look, the other daring to speak out.
Yet their actions tainted her innocence.
The old matriarch of the He family became anxious: Clearly, Lin Xianni seduced Jitang, and he called for Chen Er, but unexpectedly, that woman framed Ruanruan.
She was just about to vindicate the situation.
Su Ruanruan lightly stopped her.
Su Ruanruan looked at Lin Xianni and said, "Miss Lin, are you certain you won’t retract your statement?"
Lin Xianni looked pitiful.
The reporters were all supporting her, each one telling Miss Lin not to be afraid and to tell the truth.
She was confident and said, "I won’t retract it!"
