Chapter 1009: Scram

“Nuannuan, I only found out after watching the video that you’re also Duke Eton’s adopted daughter. Does that mean you’re sisters with Selina, then? I heard that you two are very close? I’m her…”

“Scram!”

Before Gu Mingyan could finish with ‘mother’, Zhong Nuannuan shut Gu Mingyan’s mouth.

Zhong Nuannuan, who was consistently calm and collected toward Jiang Shuwan and Zhong Qianqian, exploded at Gu Mingyan.

Zhong Nuannuan’s cold aura was like the edge of a sharp knife, choking the flattery that Gu Mingyan intended for Nuannuan in her throat. She was so scared that she did not dare to speak.

As for Nuannuan, she never thought of herself as anything lower than a queen. She could dish out retribution to many people, but rather, those people were as insignificant as ants in her mind. For people like Zhong Qianqian, Zhong Nuannuan thought that she was too disgusting, so she wanted their deaths to be slow and excruciating.

Meanwhile, for a mother like Gu Mingyan who abandoned her own child, Zhong Nuannuan felt that Gu Mingyan had no right to speak to her.

Although everyone did not understand why Zhong Nuannuan only lost her temper with Gu Mingyan, they assumed that it was Gu Mingyan and the Huang family’s fault after the whole incident with Zhong Qianqian.

Gu Mingyan, who thought she could break through the chain of embarrassment from Zhong Nuannuan’s side, no longer had the face to stay in this place where the big shots were. She left with her husband and son with a twisted expression, not even bothering about Huang Yuhan.

Nangong Qin, who had been silent all this while, said, “Everyone, we originally only invited a few old friends and media outlets today. We didn’t expect so many witnesses and other media to come. Thank you for coming today to clear our Nuannuan’s name.”

Everyone, “…”

Surely what he said was true?

To hold a press conference on the day of Zhong Qianqian’s wedding and wait for everyone to be present before displaying super powerful evidence, was this really unexpected?

“Nobody had lunch yet, right?”

At the thought of being able to get close to the Nangong family, everyone’s dissatisfaction disappeared and they shook their heads happily.

No, no, of course not! Even if they had, they were willing to have another meal, not to mention that none of them ate.

“Earlier, I told the hotel to prepare lunch for everyone. The location is on the 23rd floor. However, there are two halls on the 23rd floor, and each of them is only half the size of the hall on the 22nd floor, so we’ll have to ask everyone to tolerate eating in separate halls.”

Everyone expressed that they did not mind.

“When the time comes, Commander-in-chief Chen and Commander-in-chief Xu from the military base will accompany you on both sides.”

Everyone, “…???”

What did that mean?

Did he mean that they would not even eat after finally reunited with Zhong Nuannuan?

“Since today is the first day that we’ve acknowledged the return of our little princess, we can’t possibly have a reunion meal so casually. Therefore, the Nangong family won’t be joining you today. Everyone, have a good meal later.”

They were eating at home…

It was obvious how much the Nangong family cared about Little Princess Nuannuan.

Everyone could understand why the Nangong family treated them to a meal without joining in. Therefore, they congratulated the Nangong family for finding their true little princess—their precious pearl would not stay covered under the dust forever.

Otherwise… if Zhong Qianqian really became the little princess of the Nangong family, the consequences would be dire.

“One more thing, although this is only a matter of our Nangong family, everyone has come today to bear witness for our Nangong family!”
