“Miss Lu, you wanted evidence, didn’t you?” Yu Anwan’s tone also became stern.
Lu Nanxin stuttered and couldn’t find the words to respond. When she looked at Yu Anwan, it seemed like her whole body was trembling.
To those who didn’t know better, it appeared as though Yu Anwan was being aggressive and not leaving any room for Lu Nanxin.
“You… Don’t make baseless accusations!” Lu Nanxin said with a quivering voice, sounding on the verge of tears.
In truth, Lu Nanxin had not been involved in this entire process. Han Huiru
had been the one orchestrating everything, from obtaining the formula to the final concoction. By the time it reached Lu Nanxin’s hands, it was already a finished product.
In Lu Nanxin’s view, Yu Anwan was unjustly accusing her.
Lu Nanxin glanced at Yu Anwan and then at Wen Jin.
However, Wen Jin remained seated with a calm demeanor, seemingly unaffected by Yu Anwan’s actions. He even seemed to tacitly approve of them.
Lu Nanxin had been well aware that Wen Jin would never engage in such behavior.
On the other hand, Yu Anwan smiled and calmly restored the video that Han
Huiru had destroyed, projecting it onto the big screen. It clearly showed Han Huiru colluding with the staff to obtain the formula in advance.
Later, Han Huiru had someone else concoct the formula.
In the video, there was no footage of Lu Nanxin.
“Yu Anwan, you’re trying to frame me. The evidence you provided has nothing to do with me,” Lu Nanxin asserted through gritted teeth.
“Why? Miss Lu, don’t you recognize the person in the video?” Yu Anwan asked with a smile.
“I do…” Lu Nanxin admitted somewhat guiltily.
In recent days, Lu Nanxin had openly acknowledged her identity as a member of the Lu family. It was no secret that Han Huiru had always been by Lu Chongming’s side, so denying it was pointless.
“That’s good,” Yu Anwan said with calm composure.
The previously paused video resumed playing. This time, Lu Nanxin was even more shocked.
It was a scene from the hospital, where Han Huiru had been carefully explaining the details of the fragrance banquet to Lu Nanxin. The perfume had been handed over to Lu Nanxin by Han Huiru.
If the previous evidence had been circumstantial, this one was definitive.
Lu Nanxin’s face turned pale, and Han Huiru, who was offstage, underwent a series of transformations in her expression. The reporters focused their cameras on the two of them.
Lu Chongming’s expression became even more embarrassed.
One must understand that the Lu family has always upheld honesty and integrity, and what the Lu family despises the most is deception.
Lu Chongming had indeed asked Han Huiru for confirmation regarding the safety of this matter, and Han Huiru had given him a positive answer.
Now, there was no doubt that it was a severe blow to Lu Chongming’s reputation, leaving him in a disgraceful situation.
“Chongming…” Han Huiru looked at Lu Chongming anxiously.
The reporters’ cameras were focused on the two of them, capturing photos continuously. Lu Chongming stood up with a stern expression and walked out of the room without looking back.
Due to his association with Han Huiru and Xu Shuhui’s standing within the Lu family, Lu Chongming had become a marginalized figure.
All these years, Lu Chongming understood that it was only because of Xu Shuhui that he hadn’t been completely cut off. Otherwise, he would have been utterly helpless.
So, if you were to ask Lu Chongming if he regretted his choices, it would be disingenuous to claim that he felt no regrets. However, his pride and self-respect prevented him from bowing his head.
Yet, Lu Chongming had never anticipated that Han Huiru would publicly embarrass him in this manner.
This incident had already tarnished the Lu family’s reputation, and they would surely sever all ties with him.
Thinking about this, Lu Chongming grew even more indignant.
Upon witnessing Lu Chongming rise from his seat, Han Huiru’s expression underwent a drastic change. Disregarding the current situation, she promptly followed Lu Chongming out of the room.
The scene suddenly descended into chaos.
Yu Anwan watched this scene with an expressionless face before turning her gaze back to Lu Nanxin. “Miss Lu, do you have anything else to say?”
The discussions among the people around became more pronounced.
Oskar Spencer had never experienced such embarrassment before, especially not in front of Andrew and all the professional judges. At this point, Oskar couldn’t maintain his composure any longer.
“Look at what you’ve done!” Oskar didn’t even glance at Lu Nanxin, directing his frustration towards Jerry.
Jerry appeared somewhat bewildered. “Nanxin, you…”
Lu Nanxin had been crying with tears in her eyes for a while now. In this situation, Lu Nanxin felt deeply wronged.
She believed that all of this was Yu Anwan’s high-handedness.
As she looked at Wen Jin’s expressionless face in the audience, Lu Nanxin’s sense of grievance became increasingly evident.
This level of grievance, coupled with Lu Nanxin’s physical condition, caused her to suddenly struggle to breathe. Her face turned pale, and the next moment, she collapsed in front of everyone.
Jerry was momentarily taken aback, but then he rushed to assist Lu Nanxin. The surrounding staff quickly approached and informed the medical team, who promptly escorted Lu Nanxin away.
Yu Anwan remained stoic, watching the situation unfold without uttering a word.
While outsiders were in a state of panic, Yu Anwan understood very well that this was one of Lu Nanxin’s old tactics.
Amidst the ensuing chaos, Yu Anwan managed to turn the tables, undoubtedly emerging as the biggest winner of the night.
Those who had previously flattered Lu Nanxin had now shifted their allegiance and directed their attention toward Yu Anwan. Yu Anwan handled this with composure but didn’t engage deeply in conversations.
When Yu Anwan’s gaze met Wen Jin’s, she couldn’t discern any emotions in his eyes.
It was as if Lu Nanxin and Wen Jin had no connection whatsoever.
Yu Anwan arched an eyebrow slightly and then descended from the stage.
As Yu Anwan descended, Wen Jin had already risen from his seat. Yu Anwan had an intuition that Wen Jin was about to seek out Lu Nanxin.
However, it turned out that Wen Jin was walking toward Yu Anwan.
His deep, mesmerizing eyes locked onto Yu Anwan, exuding an even greater sense of tenderness and intimacy. “Wanwan, congratulations.” Even his addressing of her was affectionate.
As he spoke, Wen Jin’s hand naturally intertwined with Yu Anwan’s.
Yu Anwan maintained a fake smile as she looked at Wen Jin, seemingly trying to fathom his intentions.
At the moment Yu Anwan gazed at Wen Jin, the reporters behind her also grew excited. This was because Lu Nanxin, who had previously been unconscious, suddenly reappeared in the crowd.
She still looked radiant and elegant, though her complexion appeared somewhat pallid.
Lu Nanxin was making her way toward Wen Jin.
Despite her already embarrassing situation, Lu Nanxin was determined to regain her presence in front of Wen Jin.
This was because Lu Nanxin knew that no matter what request she made, Wen Jin would agree unconditionally, and Wen Jin would not let her suffer such grievances..
