pointment with the bank president, also saw everything in the video.She was suddenly confused. When the police took Jiang Jingya away, no one took pictures. How did the reporters get this videoIt's so..."Today is Lele's birthday, what are they all doing around me They're all back now, everyone gathered together today…"

Mr. Li, supported to the dining table, swept his benevolent gaze over the crowd. When he saw Luo Ningxi, his voice stopped abruptly.

As expected, the lively atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly turned cold.

"Grandpa, long time no see."

Luo Ningxi rose, revealing a polite smile. Her tone was neither humble nor arrogant, calm and composed, with not the slightest hint of fear or timidity.

Lord Li remained silent, his aged eyes scrutinizing Luo Ningxi with a look that was hard to decipher.

"Dad, Miss Luo is..."

Li Jiancheng was about to speak up and ease the tension, but Jian Ningyi beat him to it, her captivating fox eyes narrowing into a slit.

"Dad, Miss Luo is the one I invited. She even designed a longevity lock for our LeLe. I haven't had a chance to see it yet..."

"Second younger sister, don't you know that Miss Luo had some conflict with the Li family not long ago" Li Jianbin glanced at the old man and spoke seriously.

Ke Jianning preferred to disregard it.

She was only afraid of Old Master Li, who would kick Luo Ningxi out on the spot, causing her plan to fail.

She hurriedly spoke, "Brother, you're joking. I don't usually pay attention to the company and wouldn't know about these things... I just think Miss Luo's designs are beautiful, so I asked her to design for LeLe. Dad, you won't be unhappy, right..."

Li Jiancheng also immediately opened his mouth to make amends, "Dad, Jian Ningyi has never been involved in the company, you shouldn't hold her accountable..."

Lu Ningxi looked at Jian Ningyi's anxious and nervous appearance, and couldn't help but help her, "Mr. Li, the previous things were all misunderstandings. Taking this opportunity, I also really want to clear up this misunderstanding..."

Mr. Li obviously didn't want to hear Luo Ningxi say too much, he waved his hand to interrupt her, "That's enough, today is a family dinner, don't bring up company business. Since Miss Luo designed a gift for LeLe, just take it out and have a look."

Jian Ningyi was delighted and quickly pulled Li Wenle over.

"La la, come try on the longevity lock Auntie Luo designed for you. It must be very beautiful."

Li Wenle glanced at Li Lao Ye, then at the gold lacquered box in Jian Ningyi's hand, and reluctantly sidled up to her.

"Mommy, what's the gift Open it and let me see!"

"Be a good girl, Mommy's going to show you a present now. It's a very beautiful present."

Jian Ning smiled gently and, as she spoke, opened the ornate box in her hand. She took out a long life lock and prepared to put it on Le Le's neck.

For a moment.

All eyes were on the longevity lock.

Luo Ningxi gave Li Bochen a cold glare, her hand under the table clenching tightly!

"Ding dong—"

Just as Jian Ningyi’s hand trembled slightly, a crisp sound rang out, and the long life lock fell to the ground with a clang! The chain had actually… broken at this moment!

This sudden change made the already heavy atmosphere drop to freezing point!

Except for Luo Ningxi and Li Bochen who remained calm as ever, everyone else present changed color!

Jian Ningyi frowned, pretending to be flustered as she picked up the long life lock from the ground, "This... how did this lock break I used so much force..."

Yu Lan originally approached this with the mindset of watching a show, but seeing Jian Ningyi's actions, she guessed her intentions to some extent and deliberately raised her voice, "This longevity lock symbolizes children living a long life, how come Miss Luo gave one that's easy to break"

As soon as the words left his mouth, everyone's faces turned pale, especially Old Master Li!

Yu Lan quickly covered her mouth, looking as if she had said something wrong. "Oh dear, it's best to just have the servants take it away. A broken longevity lock on a child's birthday What bad luck!"

Jian Ningyi heard the words, her eyes immediately turned cold and she glared at Luo Ningxi, "Miss Luo, today is LeLe's birthday, what do you mean by giving us a broken longevity lock! Are you cursing my child!"

Jian Ning's voice was sharp, scaring Li Wenle in her arms. She whimpered and burrowed into her grandfather's embrace, "Grandpa... LeLe is scared! LeLe is afraid!"

Elder Li was filled with boundless fury at the thought of his grandchildren being harmed!

Adding to the existing resentment towards Luo Ningxi, she was merciless. She said coldly and angrily, "What is going on Is this how Luo's Group makes jewelry Or are you doing this on purpose"

"Dad, things aren't clear yet, there's no need to be so angry." Li Bichen lightly tapped the table with his long finger, his tone nonchalant.

Those narrow, long cold eyes, however, held a chilling and penetrating coldness!

Jian Ning eagerly raised her head, "What else is there to investigate This is the work of Luo Ningxi! Who else would have this kind of mind to curse the children of the Li family!"

Looking at the two of them facing each other with such hostility, Luoningxi scoffed coldly. Aren't these two on the same side How come they started fighting first This act is really well done!

"Lao Si, how do you speak to your second sister-in-law!"

Li Jiancheng tightened his brows, looking at Luo Ningxi with a cold face. He was obviously eager to regain face, "Luo Ningxi, today is my son's birthday, and this kind of thing happened. You must give us an explanation on behalf of the Luo Group!"

Suddenly, all eyes turned to Luo Ningxi with unkind expressions!

Especially Jian Ningyi, her eyes were bloodshot, wishing she could rush up and devour Luo Ningxi alive!ssed his anger and spoke in a cold and low voice, "I'll give you three months. By then, if the land or the money is missing even one thing, I won't let you go!"After finishing his words, he turned aro...
