1489 Self-Embarrassment 5 (1/2)

Lan Waihu took a deep breath and answered confidently, ”I will!”

However, there were too many events to uncover. She did not know where to begin. Moreover, some parts of the incident were quite trivial; so trivial that people would easily overlook them, but those things were too hurtful not to share.

”Shall we do it this way? You only have to answer my questions,” offered Gu Xijiu.

She then threw Mrs. Yan a gaze. ”If you find anything wrong, feel free to point it out.”

Mrs. Yan agreed. Moreover, it had been a long while since the incident happened. She believed that Lan Waihu might not be able to remember everything. Even if everything was uncovered, she could always deny the accusation. They could not find out the truth, anyway.

Gu Xijiu knew what she was planning on and immediately crushed it. ”Mrs. Yan, to make sure that all of us are telling the truth, all of you should make a solemn vow.”

Puzzled, Mrs. Yan questioned, ”What now?”

”We shall swear on the closest relation we have, Mrs. Yan. You should vow to tell the truth, in return for Yan Chen's lifetime of happiness. If you lie, he will not be loved for the rest of his life and bound to live in solitary,” Gu Xijiu answered slowly.

Furious, Mrs. Yan's expression changed immediately. ”Miss Gu, Yan Chen is a friend of yours. How can you curse him so viciously?”

”Mother, I am not afraid of the curse! If you tell the truth, I will not be cursed.” Yan Chen responded steadily.

Mrs. Yan did not know what to answer.

Her only hope was that Lan Waihu could not remember clearly about the incident and how it happened. However, the tragedy had been haunting Lan Waihu ever since, so there was no way that she could not remember.

Moreover, Gu Xijiu designed her questions to perfectly portray every important detail. Lan Waihu answered honestly. Slowly, the entire incident came to light.
