Liu Yiyi looked up at the door.

  Xiao Ying walked in with the Duke.

  The ashtray in Liu Yiyi’s hand had not landed on Xiao Ying’s head when the former suddenly saw them walking in. She felt extremely panicked and helpless.

  However, she was a habitual liar and reacted very quickly. The ashtray fell to the ground and tears flowed out of her eyes like broken pearls. “Daddy, someone kidnapped me just now. I’m so scared…” She pointed at the bespectacled girl. “She must have teamed up with Sister to mess with me. ”


  The Duke looked at the tearful Liu Yiyi. If he had not known her true colors, he might have been deceived by her false appearance.

  This vicious and lying girl had almost killed his biological daughter and his wife. She deserved to die!

  When Liu Yiyi saw the Duke looking at her with hatred, her tears fell even more fiercely. She ran in front of him, trembling. “Dad, I was really afraid just now. They must have some ulterior motive. Get someone to arrest them…”


  Slap!

  Before Liu Yiyi could finish, she was slapped ruthlessly.

  The Duke used a lot of strength and Liu Yiyi was caught off guard. The slap landed heavily on her face and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

  There was a burning pain on her face and her face swelled up very quickly.

  Liu Yiyi covered her face and looked at the Duke in disbelief.

  Ever since she entered the Duke’s palace, he had treated her as his beloved daughter. No matter what she did wrong, he would protect her… But now, he had actually hit her!

  “Dad, why are you…”


  “Don’t call me ‘Dad’. I don’t have a daughter like you who uses others to achieve her goals.” The Duke was really regretful. Back then, when she pushed the old lady into the water, his wife had suggested for her to be punished. However, in order to make up for the love she had not received in her childhood, he had been stubborn and had even gone to threaten Long Ming…


  He was so wrong!

  The Duke looked at Liu Yiyi and his heart felt like it was burning. Because of protecting this girl who was not related to him by blood, he had almost destroyed his wife and daughter.

  The Duke went forward and slapped Liu Yiyi’s other cheek.

  “I was actually deceived by you…” The Duke glared at Liu Yiyi with red eyes, wanting to shred her into pieces.” Just now, did you want to hurt yourself and frame my biological daughter? ”


  Hearing the Duke’s words, Liu Yiyi’s mind suddenly went blank and her ears buzzed.

  H-he knew everything?

  When Xiao Mai, who was standing by the side, heard the Duke’s words, she widened his eyes and looked at him in disbelief. She blinked and looked at Xiao Ying. “Sister Ying, you asked me to come here because…”


  Xiao Ying walked in front of Xiao Mai and grabbed her hand, saying softly, “Maimai, that’s right. Liu Yiyi has taken over your identity. You’re the daughter of the Duke.”


  Xiao Mai stood rooted to the ground, unable to react for a while.

  Liu Yiyi could not accept that she had become Cinderella. She hugged the Duke’s leg with tears streaming down her face. “Daddy, I know I was wrong. I will definitely be a good person in the future. Please don’t disown me…”


  The Duke looked at Liu Yiyi, who still wanted to stay in the Duke’s palace after her identity was exposed. His eyes turned cold and he kicked her away. “Guards!”


  Two strong bodyguards walked in.

  “Send her to jail!”


  “Dad, I don’t want to go to jail. I don’t want to go…”


  “Call me ‘Dad’ again and I’ll make sure you’re never be able to speak again!”


  Liu Yiyi was dragged out by the bodyguards. Seeing that the Duke would not protect her anymore, she felt despair and fear.

  All of this was Xiao Ying’s fault.

  She had fooled the Duke so much so that he did not even listen to his wife. He wanted to announce her identity… but all of this turned into a dream in an instant.

  It had to be Xiao Ying!

  Liu Yiyi cursed Xiao Ying.

  Xiao Ying could not stand Liu Yiyi anymore. She rushed to the door and slapped Liu Yiyi’s red and swollen face several times.

  Liu Yiyi was held by the bodyguards and had no chance to fight back!

  “Long Ying, you’ll die a horrible death!”


  The moment Liu Yiyi finished speaking, she heard a cold voice. “You still have the strength to scold people when you’re about to die. Liu Yiyi, you really hold out hope until faced with the grim reality.”


  Liu Yiyi looked at the man who spoke and saw Long Ming walking over. He walked to Xiao Ying’s side and wrapped his slender hand around her shoulders. His gaze on her turned from sharp to doting.

  All of Liu Yiyi’s fantasies were destroyed.

  A chill ran down her spine.

  She could imagine what kind of life she would have in jail.

  She might not die so quickly, but she would definitely wish she was dead!

  And Xiao Ying, whom she was most jealous of, would become the Princess Consort and Xiao Mai would return to the Duke’s palace and live the life of a socialite!

  At the thought that all of these things that should have belonged to her, Liu Yiyi screamed like a little beast that had been attacked.

  “Take her away!” Long Ming ordered coldly.

  …


  Seeing that Long Ming, Xiao Ying, and Liu Yiyi were no longer in the banquet hall, Lou Lan came out to see what had happened.

  In the end, she saw Liu Yiyi being dragged away by two bodyguards.

  Liu Yiyi also saw Lou Lan. She suddenly bit the bodyguard who was controlling her and ran up to Lou Lan, hugging her leg.

  “Lou Lan, save me. Didn’t I end up like this because of you?”


  When Lou Lan heard Liu Yiyi’s words, her expression changed. She raised her leg, wanting to shake Liu Yiyi off. “What nonsense are you talking about?”


  “You said that as long as Xiao Ying is chased out of the Duke’s palace and can’t become the daughter of the Duke, she can’t be with Long Ming. You even said that if you want to achieve something big, you have to be ruthless… Ah!”


  Lou Lan raised her high heels and stepped on the back of Liu Yiyi’s hand. Lou Lan said with a straight face, “I’m not familiar with you at all, and I would never have said those things to you. I have a loving boyfriend now and don’t have the time to care about other people’s matters!”


  Liu Yiyi glared at Lou Lan with red eyes. She had never expected Lou Lan to turn her back on her. When she had approached her at the bar, she had been so hypocritical!

  Liu Yiyi’s emotions had already reached a peak and Lou Lan’s expression agitated her even more. She immediately retracted her hand from under Lou Lan’s high heels.

  Her actions were so fast and fierce that Lou Lan lost her balance and fell to the ground.

  Liu Yiyi pounced at her and bit her ear. Lou Lan screamed in pain.

  Many guests and passers-by looked over. Some even took photos of this scene.
