Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

If there was no last charity performance, the rotten secrets of the Moon Breeze would be left on the sea by the guests forever like the sea breeze. But this time, Huo Jiuxiao and Lin Wanli had completely blown it up. The news that was floating around on the internet and the dense crowd of bodyguards on the dock all showed that the Huo Corporation would be bustling with activity tonight.

The Huo family ancestral hall was already full. The candlelight flickered in the ancient and exquisite lanterns, making the expensive wooden tables and chairs dim.

At seven o’clock in the evening, Uncle Zhong brought the other two elders who had just sat down in their seats. He placed his hands on the head of the scepter, and his eyes were like eagle eyes. He looked at Yun Shujing and her daughter with vigilance and judgment.

Huo Shengyuan and Huo Weichen were the last to arrive and sat down next to Huo Jiuxiao. Because there were no other seats available, they could only sit next to Huo Jiuxiao.

Huo Yu’an had heard about this show from Shen Changmei. He had rushed back the night before and was now sitting next to Lin Wanli.

The elders had yet to figure out what happened on the Moon Breeze, so they needed everyone to figure it out.

“Let’s put the matter on that cruise ship aside for now. Let’s sort out the matter of Yun Shujing going out first. Yun Shujing, the ancestral hall has ordered that you are not allowed to leave the Huo Family until your relationship with Huo Xinhong is clarified. However, you disobeyed the order and brought people to the dock to cause trouble. You even wanted to throw Huo Jiuxiao into the sea. Do you have anything to say about this?” Uncle Zhong asked coldly.

“Uncle Zhong, I’m the daughter-in-law of the Huo Family, but I’m also a mother. Which mother can remain calm when she knows that her daughter has been humiliated? How could she sit idly by? If you want to punish me, I can’t refute it. However, shouldn’t you be clear about why I’m so extreme? After all, I’ve served the Huo Family loyally for so many years. When have you ever seen me make such a mistake? If the other party hadn’t gone too far, how could I have been calculative with the younger generation?” Yun Shujing argued.

“Zhenzhen is the daughter of the Huo Family, but she was actually forced to act as a lunatic. Let me ask Uncle Zhong, if this isn’t humiliation, what is? It was even spread all over the news. How is she going to live in the future?”

“You said that she was coerced by someone. Who was it? How did she get coerced?” Uncle Zhong asked.

At this moment, Huo Zizhen suddenly pointed at Lin Wanli’s nose. “It’s this b*tch. She took control of the cruise ship and threatened me. If I didn’t do as she said, she would lock me in a metal cage and throw me into the sea to feed the sharks.”

Lin Wanli looked at her indifferently. “Do you have any evidence?”

“The signal on the ship has been blocked, and all the phones have been destroyed. Of course there’s no evidence.”

“Who blocked the signal? Who destroyed the guests’ phones?” Lin Wanli retorted, “Everyone knows that this isn’t the first time you’ve boarded Moon Breeze. Besides, there are a few Madams accompanying you. I boarded the ship alone and even carried my own luggage. If you say that I coerced you, would anyone believe you?

“Didn’t Big Brother control the entire cruise ship?”

“Did you see or hear for yourself? Or is this just your guess? Do you have evidence?”

“Lin Wanli, isn’t Huo Jiuxiao in Europe for an ear check? Why did he end up on the cruise ship?”

This time, Lin Wanli did not say anything.

At this time, Huo Zizhen thought that Lin Wanli could not answer, so she showed an arrogant expression and sneered. She turned to Uncle Zhong and said, “Uncle Zhong, the truth is that I kindly brought sister-in-law on board to make friends and expand her social circle. However, Huo Jiuxiao and Lin Wanli controlled Moon Breeze and did many things worse than beasts to me. Don’t blame my mother. She only lost control because she was worried about me.” At this point, Huo Zizhen’s tears fell. It was very touching.

“Dad, I know that my position in your heart is not as high as Big Brother’s, but I’m also a person of flesh and blood. I’m also your daughter. Even if you want to clear Big Brother’s path, you don’t have to humiliate me like this. I swear that I won’t fight with Big Brother for the Huo Family, okay?” This scene was extremely penetrating.

At this moment, the pressure was on Huo Jiuxiao.

After all, he did tell the Huo Family that he was going to Europe for an ear check, and he did appear on Moon Breeze in the end.

‘What do you say, Jiuxiao?” Uncle Zhong looked at Huo Jiuxiao and asked.

“I really didn’t go to Europe.” Huo Jiuxiao answered straightforwardly, “I also did control Moon Breeze.’

“This…”

As soon as Master Xiao finished speaking, everyone in the ancestral hall revealed extremely complicated expressions.

Especially Yun Shujing. It was as if she had caught Huo Jiuxiao’s sore spot. She said excitedly to Uncle Zhong, “Look, I didn’t wrongly accuse him, right? He hurt his own sister so badly just to seize power. Am I wrong to protect my daughter?”

“Uncle Zhong, you heard it too. I suffered a lot on the ship. Father wants to punish me and mother for an outsider. You must help us.” Upon hearing this, Huo Zizhen knelt in front of them with tears in her eyes.

“Jiuxiao, do you have any explanation?” Uncle Zhong asked.

“Since Huo Zizhen really wants to clarify the matter on Moon Breeze, then of course I have to cooperate fully. I only have one warning. There’s no turning back. Huo Zizhen, think carefully. Do you want to admit the whole story or let me reveal it for you? I’ll warn you first. Once I speak, you’ll be skinned even if you don’t die. After all, to control the Moon Breeze, you have to find its owner first.

Huo Zizhen’s expression suddenly changed when she heard the word ‘owner’.

“I’ll give you three seconds. Do you want to admit it yourself, or do you want me to help you?”

“Three…”

At this moment, Huo Zizhen panicked because she suddenly did not know what to do.

Was she going to let Huo Jiuxiao expose Li Huaitang on the spot?

But what if Huo Jiuxiao was lying to her?

“Two…”

At this moment, everyone in the ancestral hall was silent. It was as if they wanted to know what the siblings were talking about. Moreover, everyone could see that Huo Zizhen was really panicking. Other than her pale face, she had nowhere to place her hands as she grabbed her coat tightly. What was even more suspicious was her gaze. She seemed to want to ask for help, but she did not know who to ask for help, so she looked left and right without a target.

On the contrary, Huo Jiuxiao was in a different state.

Master Xiao was calm as usual, and there was a hint of world-weariness and irritation on his body. His three-dimensional facial features flickered under the dim light, adding a sense of danger to him.

“One!”

As Huo Jiuxiao’s last number fell, Huo Zizhen felt as if her neck had fallen to the ground.

That’s right, she was about to be punished..
