After Zhang Li had crashed the party, the situation got out of hand. Zhang Li and Li Chenfengs initial plans were simple, they just wanted to drag Ling Tianya through the mud, and get some money out of the Ling family in the meantime.

Neither of them were smart enough though. Zhang Li and Li Chenfeng were both people that lived in the lap of luxury. Li Chenfeng was definitely not someone suited for managing a corporation. He was leading the Li family to decline year after year, their fortune decreasing to near nothing as time pa.s.sed by.

The dowry for Ling Tianya that the Li family gave several years ago was also obtained by selling the Li familys old mansion, but the marriage had fallen through against everyones expectations. Even though Ling Tao still returned them the money afterwards, the money was depleted quickly between both of them.

By then, the Li family was at the brink of destruction. If they could get something out of the chaos, they would.

Madam Lings hands shook with anger, her lips pursed without any words.

Ling Taos face was stone cold, and he snapped at Li Chenfeng, Six years ago, I returned the dowry to the Li family. Our families dont owe each other anything anymore. I suggest you leave this place as soon as you can before I call the police on you!

Ling Tao couldnt help, but be grateful that Ling Tianya did not marry into the Li family back then. If not, they would have invited a lot of trouble into their own home.

Li Chenfeng couldnt really hold it anymore after Ling Taos words. He knew that what he was saying was not acceptable, nor fair to the Ling family. He couldnt persuade his mother otherwise though. In addition, the Li family was teetering towards complete collapse, they would try to get whatever they can from the Ling family, while they can.

The only issue was... when he saw Ling Tianya, his ideas changed.

If he could marry someone as capable and attractive as Ling Tianya, then he wouldnt only marry a wonderful woman, he could also solve Li familys issue easily.

Li Chenfeng set his eyes on his new goal. He looking over at Ling Tianya, his eyes as pitiful as a kicked puppys. Yaya, I know I shouldnt have come, but I heard that you were here, and I couldnt wait any more. Dont you think you should give me an explanation for what happened six years ago? We were about to get married, werent we? Why did you betray me? freReadNovelFull.com

Li Chenfeng acted the part of a hurt ex-boyfriend, the people that werent in the loop would definitely think he had loved Ling Tianya with all his heart back then.

Ling Tianya, on the other hand, felt nothing but disgust at Li Chenfengs actions.

If only people knew how horrible Li Chenfeng was to her back then. Even though they were getting married, he still had not stopped hooking up with different women. He was suddenly acting like a devoted lover?

Ling Tianya! This is all your fault! Youve ruined such an important dinner! Ling Qi couldnt stand it anymore, there were many guests here in attendance that daydue to the Guan familys ties with them, but the day was turning out to be such a disaster, Ling Qi was absolutely livid.

Thank goodness the Ruan family had only sent their gifts there and had no one in attendance. If not, they would have been really ashamed.

Exactly, Yaya. Since the Li family is already here, why not just explain clearly what had happened six years ago? Qu Wan pretended to be thoughtful for Ling Tianya on the surface, but she really just wanted to drive Ling Tianya into a tougher spot.

Not surprisingly, after Qu Wans thoughtful comment, the guests had started to gossip about Ling Tianyas deed of running off with the Lis dowry six years ago.

You! Youre the bane of our familys existence!! Madam Ling shook as she cursed at Ling Tianya.

Ling Tianya looked at Li Chenfeng, who was still pretending to be heartbroken, before landing her gaze on Qu Wan. The corners of her lips lifted. Since that is so, then let me explain properly before someone goes around saying that I mistreated them when I didnt!

Ling Tianyas voice was firm with conviction, shaking even Qu Wan when she heard, unsettling her slightly.
