“No, father! You can’t allow them to take Weixue away. They would torture her to death.” Shang Zhirong rushed in and cried.

Yao Jinghui sneered, “When she did such a terrible thing, she should have seen this coming and take responsible for what she did.”

Then he said to Wu Chenzi, “Hope you won’t let the four families down.”

Wu Chenzi remained silent.

“Chief Yao, a few days, please! A few days later we will find doctors to cure your great-great-granddaughter.” Shang Zhirong begged.

Yao Jinghui snorted, “One question. Is your granddaughter’s face cured yet?”

“…” Shang Zhirong was speechless.

Yao Jinghui snorted.

“I’ve stressed so many times that I didn’t use Facial Disfigurement Drop on Yao Yiru. Why didn’t you believe me?” Wu Weixue, who had been eavesdropping outside, trotted in angrily.

Yao Yiru’s father Yao Jin was furious at the sight of Wu Weixue, “so many people saw you fighting. You are impossible to deny it.”

“I am framed.” Wu Weixue argued in front of Wu Chenzi, “Grandpa, I swear I didn’t do it. Please trust me.”

Wu Chenzi had no heart to look directly into Wu Weixue’s sad face. But even so, he couldn’t lose the entire family just because of one person.

He said heavily, clenching his fists in his sleeves, “Weixue, you did a wrong thing. You have to take your responsibility. If you don’t want me to do it, you should ruin your face on your own. And you are still my favorite granddaughter.”

Wu Weixue was shocked and couldn’t believe what her grandfather said.

Shang Zhirong fell down to the floor and cried, “If her face is ruined, so is her life.”

Yao Jin shot a hard stare at her and roared, “My daughter’s life is ruined by her.”

“…” Shang Zhirong.

Wu Weixue finally was scared. Her grandfather would support her no matter what she did wrong and no one else could punish her. But one day her grandfather abandoned her.

She knelt down and grabbed Wu Chenzi’s sleeves, and cried, “Grandfather, I didn’t do it. Please trust me. I didn’t ruin their faces. It’s a frame. Please investigate it. I didn’t do it.”

“…” Wu Chenzi knew his granddaughter very well. She was a proud girl. If she said that she didn’t do it, she meant it. She was not that irrational to do such a thing to harm other family member and the other four families.

When Wu Weixue said that it was a frame, he had the same doubt too. But he couldn’t find who it could be.

The first one popping out of Wu Chenzi’s mind was the crown prince who hated Wu family so much. But as far as he knew about Ling Mohan, he was unlikely to get the girls involved in their fighting.

For whatever reason, he had to give Yao family an answer. Besides, many people said that they saw Wu Weixue used the Facial Disfigurement Drop on Yao Yiru. Therefore, Wu Weixue had to take the punishment. Otherwise, Yao family wouldn’t go easy on him and the big plan he had been making would be ruined because of this.

Wu Chenzi took back the sleeve from Wu Weixue’s grip, “Weixue, take out the Facial Disfigurement Drop. I will get the best doctor to cure your face.”

“No. No. I am not going to do it. I don’t have Facial Disfigurement Drop.” Wu Weixue cried, shaking her head.

“If you don’t have Facial Disfigurement Drop, I do.” Song Yan said angrily and walked in, followed by her servants.

Her servants carried a cage and put it in the center of the hall. Song Yan said, pointing the green snake in the cage, “She used the venom to make Facial Disfigurement Drop. With a single bite, her face is ruined.”

“How dare you search my yard without my permission!” Wu Weixue yelled.

She caught the Saliva Snake on Four Clan Festival.

Shang Zhirong couldn’t believe what her daughter-in-law did, “Song Yan, what are you doing? She is your sister-in-law. How could you do such a thing to her?”

Song Yan sneered, “Does she treat Yanli her niece and do you treat Yanli your own granddaughter? After my daughter’s face is ruined, as a grandmother, have you ever cared about her? If you have no heart to perform the punishment, I will. Servant! Release the Saliva Snake!”
