The next moment, Xia Wan grabbed Li Jin’s wrist.

Xia Wan’s eyes were cold, and she looked at Li Jin as if he was a dead man.

“I’ll see who dares to touch my mother today!” Her soft voice pierced through everyone’s ears, and Li Jin’s hand was flung away by her.

After the initial shock, Li Jin’s anger rose. He put his hands on his waist and became even angrier. “Good. Both mother and daughter dare to fight me, right?”

“Someone come and take a look. Yan Han has brought her daughter along to bully!

“She seduced her own man and wouldn’t let anyone speak. Everyone, come and take a look. Xia Wan, an unfilial daughter, hit her own grandmother!”

Yan Han was a little flustered, and he hurriedly whispered to Xia Wan, “Wanwan, quickly apologize to your grandmother. If she continues shouting like this, your reputation will be ruined.”

Chen Lian and Song Yan also chimed in and criticized Xia Wan, “Wanwan, how can you be so insensible? How dare you hit grandma? Are you going to hit first aunt and second aunt too? ”

Xia Wan stopped Yan Han and looked at the three of them with a cold smile. “Grandma, don’t cry yet. Let me tell you the truth. I fell into the water not because I had an affair with a man. It was Xia Ru and Xia Ye, your own granddaughter and first aunt and second aunt’s daughter, who pushed me!

“They were jealous that their idol confessed to me, and they pushed me into the water. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them to confront me and see if I’m right or not!”

“What?” Yan Han was shocked. She pulled Xia Wan over and reminded her, “Wanwan, you can’t just say that as you like.”

Xia Wan gave her a reassuring look. “Mom, I never slander people.”

Although it was true that Xia Ru and Xia Ye were not the ones who pushed her into the water, they were right beside her. Not only did they not even speak about saving her, they even watched her drown. They knew that she couldn’t swim, yet they didn’t even call for help, as though afraid that they would have to take responsibility.

“Fine, since you don’t want to help, then I’ll change the indirect manslaughter charge to conspiracy to commit murder.”

She would like to see if these two people had the guts to confront her!

Seeing Xia Wan’s confidence, Chen Lian and Song Yan panicked. They pulled Li Jin over. “Mother, stay calm. Let’s wait for the two children to come back and ask them first.”

At that time, they suddenly realized that something was wrong. Usually, the two children should have returned early. Why did they take so long today?

In a corner that no one noticed, Xia Ye covered her mouth. It was over. Xia Wan was starting to exact revenge on her. She was so flustered she didn’t know what to do. She did not even dare to come out and to confront her grandma.

“I’m going to find big brother! He definitely has a way!”

Xia Ye hardened her heart. As long as Xia Wan’s bad reputation was solidified, she could get away with it!

Xia Wan, don’t blame me. Who asked you to drag me into this?

Soon, Xia Ye found Xia Yu and said angrily, “Brother, go and get Xia Wan. She was clearly pushed into the lotus pond by Julie, but she told grandma that it was me and Xia Ru who pushed her in!”

“Brother, she framed us in front of grandma. You have to help us!”

Xia Ye knew that her brother, Xia Yu, was the favorite grandchild of her grandmother. As long as her brother went over, Xia Wan would have to step aside no matter how powerful she was.

Xia Yu was indeed angry and clenched her fat fists.”Alright! How dare you bully my sister Xia Wan? She’s getting bolder. Let’s go, I’ll make the decision for you!”

He was born tough, and his family doted on him a lot. He would always come first when it came to delicious food, but they often bullied Xia Wan.

A smile appeared on Xia Ye’s face as she confidently followed Xia Yu.

At this time, Xia Wan was still confronting Li Jin. Neither of them was convinced.

Xia Yu walked over angrily. When Li Jin saw that it was Xia Yu, he grinned so widely that the wrinkles on his face appeared. “Good girl, why are you here? Did Xia Wan wake you up?”

“I’m fine, grandma, but my sister is not. She came back with me. How did she become the one who pushed Xia Wan? She’s lying!”

With Xia Yu’s testimony, Xia Ye looked at Xia Wan smugly, as if to say,”You’re the only one who knows how to frame people. I can even get help!”

Xia Ye was from Xia Wan’s second uncle’s family. Her second aunt, Chen Lian, immediately smiled and said, “I told you. The girls from both our families are good girls. Why would they do such an immoral thing?”

Then, she looked at Xia Wan with an unfriendly gaze. “Wanwan, you’re already 18 this year. You’re an adult. Lying is a bad habit. Today, you have to apologize to us in front of everyone and we’ll let this matter go.

“I remember that your dad is about to get his salary. He just so happens to have money to buy things for us.”

Xia Wan laughed coldly. “Second aunt, you’re a real good schemer. My dad’s salary hasn’t been paid yet, and you’re already thinking about it. In the past, this money was always given to grandma, right? Now that you’re asking for money, did grandma agree?”

This simple sentence caused Li Jin to glare at Chen Lian. Clearly, this sentence had struck a chord in Li Jin’s heart. The money that her son earned was meant to be filial to her. How could she give it to her daughter-in-law? Even if she had given birth to a good grandson for her, she still couldn’t do so!

Chen Lian’s expression immediately changed. She put on a fawning smile and said, “Mother, don’t believe her words. How would I dare to spend mother’s money? This girl is scheming. She’s trying to sow discord between us.”

Xia Wan snorted coldly and ignored her. She looked at Xia Yu with a fierce gaze. “You said that you came back with Xia Ye. Then why did you ignore me when I called for help? Why did you watch me get pushed into the water by Xia Ye and Xia Ru?”

Xia Wan’s sudden outburst stunned Xia Yu, and she retorted, “Bullsh*t! It was Julie who pushed you. My sister only saw it and didn’t do anything.”

After she finished speaking, Xia Yu realized that she had said the wrong thing and almost slapped herself.

Xia Ye pursed her lips and glared at Xia Yu.

My good brother, did you just sell your sister out?
