Chapter 984: Do You Want to Wait for the finale?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

All kinds of things had been prepared. What had happened more than twenty years ago was also displayed in front of him like a painting.

Qiao Zhuoli held the documents and almost choked on a mouthful of smoke.

***

Old Madam Yue’s birthday was coming.

Her condition had improved. In order to make her happier, Yue Ling prepared a medium-sized birthday party.

!!

Yue Xiu was busy preparing.

It seemed like Qiao Zhuoli no longer had any doubts about the pharmaceutical company, and Yue Xiu did not have to worry too much about something happening.

At the birthday banquet, all the guests were present.

Yue Xiu acted as the host as she shuttled through the crowd and greeted the guests.

Tonight, all the important people from the few great families and the Imperial City had come. Old Madam Yue was also flushed with joy.

Lu Hui pushed her wheelchair out. Yue Liang came forward and with the servants, helped her sit on the sofa.

“Grandma, all the guests are here today. Take a look,” Yue Liang said. “Don’t worry, your illness will naturally recover.”

“Alright, alright.” Old Madam Yue nodded, but she had yet to see her second son and his family.

Her face darkened slightly.

Lu Hui said, “Everyone came early today. However, some people want to wait for the finale?”

Yue Xiu said softly, “I’ve already arranged for servants to invite them.”

“How arrogant. Those who don’t know might think that it’s their birthday,” Lu Hui mocked indifferently.

Old Madam Yue was in a bad mood. Not only had Yue Feng’s family not come, but Shi Jin and Fu Xiuyuan had also not come.

She had always wanted to be strong and cared about her reputation, so she was naturally unhappy about this.

Madam Yue had no intention of attending the banquet. She was really disappointed in Old Madam Yue.

However, the Yue family was the face of the entire Imperial Capital. It would be difficult to explain if she did not appear. She could only drag it out until the end.

She only got out of the car when she really could not drag it out any longer.

Yue Lanchen followed by her side and said, “Mom, let’s go. Let’s go and return early.”

As they were talking, they saw Fu Xiuyuan and Shi Jin walking over. It seemed like they had come late as well.

When they entered the scene, many people knew that they were late.

However, those who knew the inside story felt that Madam Yue and Shi Jin were considered magnanimous. If other families encountered such a thing, they would have long broken up.

Lu Hui smiled and greeted, “Jingxiu, Shi Jin, I thought you weren’t coming. You’re finally here. Mom is almost waiting to cut the cake.”

“Happy birthday, Mom.” Madam Yue offered up the gift.

The servant came over and put it away.

Old Madam Yue said indifferently, “Since you’re already here, let’s cut the cake.”

The cake was sent in. Four layers of cake were placed on a high shelf, exquisite and perfect.

A few servants came over to light the candles. Soon, the candles were lit.

Someone had extinguished the lights, leaving only candlelight.

The candlelight was very bright, but the venue was very large. The further away one was, the dimmer it seemed.

Yue Xiu smiled and said, “Grandma, happy birthday!”

“Old Madam, I wish you a happy birthday. Wishing you many more days like today.”

Old Madam Yue’s mood improved and she nodded with a smile.

Suddenly, a sharp voice sounded. “Old Madam, happy birthday!”

The voice was a little terrifying and made people’s blood run cold. Everyone looked over and realized that the person who spoke was a woman who had been sick for a long time. Her hair was very thin and her face was pale. The veins on her face were protruding, making her look a little terrifying.

Someone recalled that she was Madam Qiu, who had problems with her voice and appearance because of the side effects of the medicine more than twenty years ago. She had not appeared for a long time. Why was she here?

Old Madam Yue’s expression suddenly changed, as if she was frightened.

An old man who was also sitting in a wheelchair said, “Old Madam, happy birthday. I wish you happiness every day.”

Just as he finished speaking, a young girl barged in and shouted, “Cake! Cake! Cake!”

She reached out and grabbed it. Two candles were extinguished. She was burned until she hurt and waved her hand angrily. “Stinky cake, stinky cake!”

A good cake was destroyed by her in a few moves.

Before the servants could stop her, she pushed the entire cake onto the ground with a bang, making a loud noise.

The people standing in the front row were covered in cream.

Everyone exclaimed.

Someone immediately turned on the lights.

Old Madam Yue’s expression had already turned very ugly.

However, after turning on the lights, she realized that there were quite a few people standing there who had suffered side effects from the medicine they had used back then. They were all strange in appearance. Either there was something wrong with their intelligence, their faces had been changed, or there was something wrong with the other parts of their bodies.

People would see people like this on the news and listen to the broadcast casually and offer some sympathy, but they would not pay attention afterwards.

However, when many such people stood together, the visual impact was very huge. It was shocking and suddenly made one’s heart turn cold.

Many people did not dare to look anymore.

Old Madam Yue raised her voice. “Get them out! All of them!”

Yue Xiu also said sternly, “Who let them in? Bring them out immediately!”

Qiao Zhuoli went forward to protect Qiao Lian, who was covered in cake, and said indifferently, “I’m sorry, I was the one who brought Qiao Lian over. She’s insensible, so I apologize on her behalf.”

Qiao Lian was Qiao Zhuoli’s younger sister after all, so Yue Xiu could not say anything. She said, “I welcome her to come and visit, but this…”

“That’s right, but who caused her to be like this?” Qiao Zhuoli had another meaning.

Yue Xiu avoided the topic. “Grandma, fortunately, I have a spare cake. Let’s celebrate again.”

“Forget it, there’s no need to cut the cake. Let’s leave it at that.” Old Madam Yue looked at the people in front of her and her heart palpitated. She only wanted to avoid them now. “Everyone, I can’t be a good host today. My health isn’t good, so I’ll excuse myself in advance.”

“Old Madam Yue, your birthday is not over yet. Why are you leaving?”

Someone walked in from outside. Everyone looked over and was very surprised.

It was Gu Jingyuan!

Old Madam Yue was also shocked.

“I haven’t even wished you a happy birthday, Old Madam,” Gu Jingyuan said with a smile. “Old Madam, accept my blessings.”

“You, you…” Old Madam Yue glanced at him and then at Qiao Zhuoli.

Qiao Zhuoli looked back at her indifferently.

Old Madam Yue gripped the sides of the wheelchair tightly.

She had spent a lot of effort to make Qiao Zhuoli believe her for more than twenty years. What happened back then was done by Li Nan, and she had successfully made him suspect Gu Jingyuan.

Only then did Qiao Zhuoli attack Gu Jingyuan.

Now that Gu Jingyuan had returned, Old Madam Yue did not have to guess to know that many things had been exposed.

Qiao Zhuoli smiled mysteriously. “Old Madam, happy birthday.”

“You… you…” Her lips trembled, and her body trembled.
