The Indifferent Young Master's Flash Marriage Chapter 448 – A Storm Was Raging

Chapter 448: A Storm Was Raging

The more Sheng An’ning thought about it, the creepier she felt. She sat on the stool, her face looking even uglier.

Seeing Sheng An’ning like this, Luo Xiuxiu couldn’t help but ask with concern, “An’ning, what’s wrong?”

Sheng An’ning raised her beautiful face and smiled weakly at Luo Xiuxiu. Her palm-sized face was devoid of any color, so weak that she couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

“Grandmother, my head hurts.”

Luo Xiuxiu frowned when she saw Sheng An’ning’s discomfort. She then suggested to Jiang Xuecheng.

“Xuecheng, what’s so important that you have to say it now? An’ning isn’t feeling well. Let her rest first.”

Jiang Xuecheng sneered when he saw Luo Xiuxiu’s pained expression.

“She’s the main character. Of course, she can’t leave.”

Jiang Xuecheng’s voice was neither loud nor soft, but everyone present could hear the sarcasm in his voice. Soon, everyone realized that something was not right.

Sheng An’ning heard this and her hopes of being lucky instantly hit rock bottom.

The remaining color on her face instantly faded away. Sheng An’ning’s hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly and she couldn’t sit still!

Never had Sheng An’ning been so scared!

She didn’t know how much dirt Jiang Xuecheng had on her, but it was obvious that Jiang Xuecheng at least knew that she had played a part in the birthday banquet incident a few days ago.

The usual breakfast atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

The others looked at each other, not knowing what Jiang Xuecheng was up to.

It was rare for Jiang Xuecheng to say something like this, but Sheng An’ning was acting like a mouse seeing a cat. It was hard not to think nothing of it.

Seeing Sheng An’ning’s terrified look, Jiang Haoxuan felt his heart ache.

He hesitated for a moment, but still stood up and looked at Jiang Xuecheng. “brother, what do you want to say? Just say it. An’ning is not well, don’t scare her.”

Sheng An’ning saw that Jiang Haoxuan was speaking up for her, so she couldn’t help but raise her head and call out to him.

“Haoxuan…”

Jiang Haoxuan saw Sheng An’ning’s delicate face and subconsciously gave her a reassuring look.

“An’ning, don’t be afraid. Grandfather and grandmother are here today. I believe brother won’t say anything without reason.”

Sheng An’ning bit her lower teeth slightly, her delicate expression was weak and aggrieved.

Seeing this scene, everyone was a little confused. Jiang Xuecheng hadn’t said what it was yet. Why was Sheng An’ning so afraid?!

Jiang Xuecheng looked coldly at Sheng An’ning’s show. He smiled disdainfully and then walked over with Su Wan’s hand in his. He sat beside Xu Ziyao casually.

Jiang Xuecheng looked around at everyone at the dining table. Finally, his eyes fell on Jiang Zhiyuan, who was sitting opposite him, with a solemn expression.

“Grandfather, didn’t you ask me to investigate the birthday banquet incident a few days ago? I found the person who leaked the secret. Today, she’s sitting at this dining table…”

Before Jiang Xuecheng could finish his words, a storm was raging in everyone’s hearts!

Connecting this statement to the previous scene, wouldn’t he be talking about Sheng An’ning?

A sharp glint flashed across Jiang Zhiyuan’s aged eyes. He shifted his gaze to Sheng An’ning and couldn’t help but clench his fists under the tablecloth.

Jiang Haoxuan, who was sitting next to Sheng An’ning, was even more shocked!

His entire body trembled as he stared at Sheng An’ning without blinking. However, Sheng An’ning only had tears in her beautiful eyes and looked extremely sad.

Jiang Haoxuan couldn’t accept this. He stood up abruptly and questioned Jiang Xuecheng sternly.

“Brother, did you make a mistake?! How could An’ning do such a thing?!”

“Whether or not I did, why don’t you listen to what she has to say?”

Jiang Xuecheng’s expression was calm. He glanced at the agitated Jiang Haoxuan and raised an eyebrow.

“An’ning, quickly say no!”

Jiang Haoxuan quickly turned around and looked at Sheng An’ning. In a moment of desperation, he reached out and grabbed Sheng An’ning’s shoulder. His dark eyes were filled with anticipation and anxiety.

An’ning had been indebted to the Jiang family for many years and had always been treated like a rich young lady. She had never been mistreated, so how would An’ning not be happy?!

Hearing Jiang Haoxuan’s anxious cry, Sheng An’ning slowly stood up.

She slowly pushed away Jiang Haoxuan’s fingers on her shoulder. Her delicate face lifted slightly and the tears in her beautiful eyes accumulated more and more.

Her slender body was like a broken rose in the wind and rain, emanating a feeling of weakness.

Sheng An’ning swept her gaze across the people present. Other than Jiang Haoxuan, the elders of the Jiang family all had solemn expressions. Their eyes were filled with tentativity and scrutiny. It was obvious that they did not trust her.

Sheng An’ning smiled bitterly. She suddenly felt that these people’s faces were really detestable. In the end, what had she done?!

She had only provided some information about the birthday banquet. How could she have known that the other party would do such a crazy thing?!

Could she be blamed for Lin Xuan’s death?!

Sheng An’ning bit her lip hard and finally spoke.

“Brother Xuecheng, are you insinuating that it was me? But I really didn’t betray the Jiang family, nor did I participate in the shooting incident at the birthday banquet. Even if you hate me because of sis-in-law, you can’t just accuse people like that!”

Her slightly hoarse voice sounded both sad and fragile, as if she had been wronged.

No matter what, she couldn’t admit it!

Sheng An’ning’s pure white fingers unconsciously pinched into her palm. The constant pain from her hand gradually suppressed Sheng An’ning’s panic, and she became much clearer.

When Jiang Haoxuan heard Sheng An’ning’s explanation, his mood finally eased up, and he let out a sigh of relief.

“I knew it. An’ning, you’re not that kind of person.”

When Sheng An’ning’s words fell into Su Wan’s ears, the corners of her lips curled up in disdain, and a contemptuous sneer appeared on her face.

In order to clear her own name, Sheng An’ning had actually used her and Jiang Xuecheng as leverage!

What on Earth was this woman’s heart made of? Why was she so ruthless?!

At the birthday banquet, so many guests’ lives had been threatened by her actions, and Lin Xuan had unfortunately lost her life!

However, Sheng An’ning didn’t feel guilty at all. How could she still say that she was innocent?!

At this moment, Jiang Zhiyuan, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

He sat calmly at the table and swept his gaze across Jiang Xuecheng. “Xuecheng, why did you say that just now? Do you have any evidence?”

The most important thing to convict Sheng An’ning was evidence.

Everyone present turned to look at Jiang Xuecheng because of Jiang Zhiyuan’s words.

Sheng An’ning’s body froze and her expression changed immediately. Her innocent face turned even paler.

Jiang Xuecheng curled his lips and smiled calmly. “I wonder if the emails are enough to prove it?”

Jiang Xuecheng’s words were like a snowstorm in the dead of winter. Sheng An’ning couldn’t help but shudder.

She had deleted all the emails and even cleared up her phone and laptop.

Besides, when she wasn’t carrying these two things with her, she locked them in the safe, so where would Jiang Xuecheng get the evidence?!
