"Who do you think you are?! How dare you stand in the way of our family rules?!" Si Ming Li erupted instantly.
Hearing that, Ye Wanwan was expressionless. She cast a cold sideways glance at Si Ming Li and spoke with a bone-chilling voice: "Fourth great uncle, usually you're the elder and I should respect you... but today, things are different... who do
you
think you are that you actually dared to insult the future mistress of the Si family?"
"You... you... you!" Si Ming Li pointed at Ye Wanwan, speechless.
"Fourth great uncle, since you completely disrespected the mistress of the Si family, can I a.s.sume you disrespect the master of the Si family as well?" Ye Wanwan replied coldly.
"Nonsense!" Si Ming Li was shocked. This Ye Wanwan actually managed to launch this great accusation at him with just a few words.
At this moment, everyone's attention instinctively turned to Ye Wanwan.
Watching Ye Wanwan flaunting her power at such a time, the white-bearded elder, Si Ming Rong, frowned in displeasure.
Si Ming Li restrained himself and said, "What I meant was that the elders are dealing with an important matter; how could we allow a woman like you to simply interrupt?"
Ye Wanwan stood next to Xu Yi as she replied indifferently, "Housekeeper Xu isn't a traitor. I believe everything he said!"
Hearing this, Xu Yi turned to Ye Wanwan in a daze. His entire face filled with astonishment. He never expected that the person who would stand up for him would actually be Ye Wanwan...
Seeing as Ye Wanwan actually spoke up for a traitor and didn't seem to realize the gravity of the situation, all the elders looked displeased.
Qin Ruo Xi was amongst them and the corners of her lips curled into a cold smirk.
This woman is really darn stupid. She actually went against the entire Si family and wants to side with the traitor. I 'd love to watch this show; I wonder how she's going to put an end to this.
The rage and humiliation on Si Ming Li's face suddenly transformed into a smile. He looked at Ye Wanwan and said casually, "You believe what he said was the truth, what he said was genuine? With the evidence right here, you're helping a traitor. Are you dumb and ignorant or... do you have some evil intentions!"
Si Ming Li changed the topic suddenly and continued, "Miss Wanwan has outstanding courage and insights. I admire you but there's something I just can't figure out - for an organization like the Murderous Blood Gang, it's impossible for ordinary folks to know about them, much less the existence of an organization even stronger than them."
"For a young, sheltered lady like you, how would you know all these things?"
"Attempting to fool the Murderous Blood Gang - I'm afraid that's not something you could do just by knowing about them, you have to be completely familiar with that organization before you can achieve that, right?"
Si Ming Li spoke as his gaze turned towards Liu Ying and Eleven.
The two of them looked at each other but didn't comment, which could be considered as tacit agreement.
"Liu Ying, let me ask you: which organization did you guys disguise yourselves as?" Si Ming Li asked.
Liu Ying paused for a moment before answering, "Rose of Death..."
Wh... what? Rose of Death!
Hearing those three words, Rose of Death, all the elders had the same reaction at the same time -
no wonder they were able to scare the Murderous Blood Gang away!
"And how were all of you able to put on the disguise?" Si Ming Li asked again.
Eleven could only answer truthfully, "At the time, Miss Wanwan already had some costumes and props prepared... also, Miss Wanwan was quite knowledgeable about the Rose of Death..."
