Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him-Chapter 795: Iron Mountain is Indisputable

"You... you shut up!"

Lu Yingxue’s anger surged to the top of her head, with every drop of blood in her body boiling.

Her entire being was on the verge of collapse.

She was furious, but even more fearful.

Afraid that her golden reputation would collapse like a castle in the sky!

Sun Weimeng was not afraid of her threats, instead confronting her: "Miss Lu, can you deny that the person in the video is not you? Is it also false that you collaborated with Zhong Lingxiao to frame Zhong Yi? Do you have no affair with a married man?"

Pressed relentlessly.

Lu Yingxue’s face was pale, and she could feel the doubtful and contemptuous gazes of many people falling on her.

The photos and videos were irrefutable evidence.

Sun Weimeng even recited the time of the hotel check-in.

"Miss Lu, do you have any defense left?"

None!

Lu Yingxue’s lips trembled; the other party had long noticed her and thoroughly investigated her and Zhong Lingxiao.

Any further arguments would be a joke.

She just swore in front of everyone, and already fell into Zhong Yi’s trap.

Slap!

Zhao Shuyuan stepped forward and delivered a heavy slap to Lu Yingxue’s face.

"What Imperial Capital’s Lady Hua Tuo, what noble character! Turns out to be a shameless woman! If you truly wanted the position of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhong Family, I would let you have it. Why must you build a monument while entwined with my husband! You are not as open as Lin Xifei!"

"Miss Lu lies with every word. How many lies have you told the Beijing people over the years? In the future, will anyone believe what you say? After all, in front of the ancestors of the Zhong Family, you could still lie without batting an eye."

Zhao Shuyuan, a socialite from the Zhao Family, was usually very prudent.

But this was the first time she stood up to criticize Lu Yingxue.

Lu Yingxue’s expression was both blue and red in shame, looking quite dramatic.

The slap mark made her even more humiliated and embarrassing.

Zhong Lingxiao glanced at these women "fighting for favor," then turned to see the Old Master, who was calmly sitting with eyes closed. He knew that if today’s matters were not handled well, he would lose his position as the heir.

The Old Master was clearly watching how he would handle it.

With a livid face, he addressed everyone: "Today is a major event for the Zhong Family, not a time for certain people to settle personal grudges. Butler, please escort Miss Lu to the old residence to rest."

The matter was already set in stone.

So what if his character was flawed? This was not the first time he had dallied with women, the Old Master surely knew his romantic history.

The Old Master himself had many confidantes when he was young; how could a successful man of that era not have women surrounding him? It’s just that the woman he got involved with was quite famous, and the photos and videos had a more significant impact on Lu Yingxue.

To him, it was just another woman.

Lu Yingxue was taken away in an extremely embarrassing manner, with some witnessing her whole body shaking.

Zhong Lingxiao turned around and said: "Young Master Sun, Zhong Yi, enough of this nonsense! Choosing such a day to upset the Old Master, what was your intention! Zhong Yi, I know you have always disrespected me, your elder brother."

Zhao Shuyuan, uncharacteristically, spoke up first: "If you and Miss Lu had no illicit affair, they wouldn’t have been able to make a scene."

Zhong Lingxiao squinted his eyes threateningly: "Are you also trying to stir up trouble? Are you speaking for Zhong Yi?"

Zhao Shuyuan opened her mouth, but the fear of long-standing oppression loomed in her heart, ultimately leaving her with nothing to retort.

Zhong Yi stood with arms crossed, seemingly an observer. The corners of his eyes and brows carried faint, light mockery.

Sun Weimeng stood by his side, muttering: "How come he gets to be so domineering?"

Zhong Yi imitated his tone, whispering: "Perhaps he thinks he has the victory in his grasp."

Zhong Lingxiao waved his hand: "Continue with the ceremony."

Only the burning of paper money and bowing remained in the ancestral rite.

He and Zhong Hongfei invited the Old Master to stand up, to burn the first pile of paper money on behalf of the Zhong Family.

The Old Master felt somewhat displeased; the guests below were whispering, clearly discussing the scandal of Lu Yingxue and Zhong Lingxiao. Some even captured the video shown by Sun Weimeng, preparing to spread the photos publicly.

The back was lined with dozens of media outlets, including some famous for their entertainment sections. freёnovelkiss-com

They wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.

The Old Master Zhong wanted to suppress it, but he was powerless!

Because everything was decided by the Huo Family. Without these dozens of media outlets, others would come to disseminate the news. This incident seemed to target the Lu Family with the Zhong Family being collateral.

Lu Yingxue’s reputation after today might never recover, leaving her prey to a public backlash.

But the affairs of the Lu Family were not his concern.

His body was deteriorating day by day, who knows when he might lay down and not see the next sunrise. At that time, the Zhong Family would surely fall into chaos.

The most important thing was to determine the successor for the Zhong Family today and hand over all the power he held.

Though neither of the younger generation were perfect heirs, he had no choice!

So be it!

The Old Master burned the paper money for the ancestors, the flames reflecting off his wrinkled face.

He was truly old now.

After burning the entire stack of paper money, he slowly stood up, took the wet towel from the butler’s hand, and wiped his hands.

His sharp eyes scanned the guests, finally locking onto Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi like an eagle. Without them, the Zhong Family would not be so turbulent.

Zhong Yi remained the most obedient candidate.

The Old Master Zhong paused for a moment. "A joke just occurred, I hope everyone won’t mind. Affairs between men and women are no more than that, and over the years, there have been quite a few jokes. To err is human, nobody is perfect, it’s just that this matter was poorly handled. In other respects, they are barely acceptable to me..."

"I imagine after he becomes a father, he will become more mature. For years, the Zhong Family’s successor has been undetermined, leading to much speculation from the outside world. Everyone should have guessed the purpose of today’s Zhong Family banquet is to witness the birth of our next heir."

He signaled the butler, who brought over three seals symbolizing the power of the Zhong Family.

All were placed on a tray lined with red velvet.

One was the Zhong Family’s official seal, which could mobilize various enterprises within the family.

The second was the Old Master’s personal seal, capable of mobilizing the personnel he had cultivated.

The third was a jade seal with a leopard’s head, representing the family head’s seal of the Zhong Family.

This was both a legacy and a symbol!

Zhong Lingxiao stared at these three seals, his eyes burning with desire, his breathing becoming slightly rapid.

If he obtained the three seals today, the Zhong Family would be under his control! Even the Old Master would have to step back and enjoy peace!

The other guests no longer had the mind to worry about the previous scandal.

The transfer of power was happening at this moment.

The Old Master Zhong said in a deep voice: "My son passed early, and my grandson is inept. In this generation, only two great-grandsons are barely acceptable, one has established a family and business, while the other is younger and still uncertain. I do not wish for the Zhong Family to be unstable in the future, so I have decided on Zhong..."

"Wait."

Zhong Yi spoke softly interrupting the Old Master Zhong.
