Chapter 33: General Zhan appears out of nowhere to carry his princess

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Fortunately, the maiden was an agile fighter and was able to avoid hitting the vital organs. Still, her two knees went down on the broken glasses on reflex…

Her long gown offered slight protection and this was definitely better than to fall on the glass fragments with her bare knees. Unfortunately, the fabric was too thin to protect her and the glass fragments pierced through the fabric, and into her knees…

Jiang Li gave a scream of fright at the appropriate interval and made a show of going up to help her sibling.

On the other hand, her mother gave a fake look of pained concern while commenting, “Mianmian, you’re such a big girl now, why are you still so careless and clumsy…?”

The girl on the floor slapped away her sister’s outreached hand.

The pain caused the younger sibling’s face to turn as white as a sheet. Sounding weak and wronged, she said, “Sis, but your legs are bleeding…”

Jiang Mianmian could not stop swearing and cursing as she attempted to stand up.

Within the next moment…

The petite girl on the floor was swept up into a pair of broad, warm arms.

Zhan Muqian, in his military uniform, was looking sullen with a tinge of fatigue.

Perhaps her knees were really giving her a lot of pain, the girl was not aware of how he barged into the scene and carried her.

The girl wore a light lip color today; yet, despite looking a little pale on her lips, she fluttered her pretty eyelids mischievously like her usual self.

“Uncle Zhan, you are here, too? My little dress was real pretty today. I chose this in the dressing room earlier. Were you the one who gave this to me?”

He had mentioned once that he would give her a dowry.

Pursing his thin lips, his dark orbs were fixed on the glaring red stains oozing from her knees…

With his esteemed status, he was like a god who had descended onto earth.

In his stern military outfit, he was carrying the lovely girl like a princess.

The two did not seem jarringly incompatible and instead, they looked surprisingly good together.

His pensive eyes glanced across the group of women and everyone, including Mrs. President, was fearfully taken aback by his lethal stare.

His frigid and angry look seemed capable of slicing anyone in half.

Looking embarrassed, Li Shengyuan walked up to him and said, “Mianmian, come down, quick. You’re hurt and you better let the medics bandage your cuts before infection sets in…”

The man looked at the little girl in his arms.

She gave him a beam despite her pale lips. “Uncle, you let me down first.”

He hesitated momentarily before conceding to her wishes.

After he carefully put her down, she steadied herself as she bore with the excruciating pain in her knees.

She waved to a waiter, standing not far away, to bring her a glass of red wine on his tray.

Holding it elegantly in her hand, she sashayed up to Jiang Li in her thin heels, and stood tall and proud in front of her sister.

With her heart pounding fast, the younger sibling looked at her innocently in return and asked, “Sis, what’s wrong with you…”

Their mother was equally nervous. However, as this was a grand occasion, she reckoned that the rebellious girl would not go overboard on her father’s birthday celebration.

Mianmian’s fair and slender wrist slowly raised high above Jiang Li’s head… before she tilted the glass wine with her wrist…

The red wine started to drip one to two drops and WOOSH!

The young girl let out a scream as the red wine poured down onto her above her head. Her hair and face, and even her chest, were soaked, turning the front of her dark gown into a patch of bright red…

After that, the older girl let go of her fingers lightly.

The wine glass tumbled from her hand and smashed into pieces, next to her sister.

The action startled the girl like a frightened hedgehog, who looked utterly embarrassed.

The president’s wife could no longer conceal her emotions as she scolded her stepdaughter furiously, “Are you mad?! Jiang Li is your sister!”

Jiang Mianmian swept away the dust on her palm nonchalantly, turned to face the onlooking crowd and gently retorted as a matter-of-fact. “It was Jiang Li who made me trip and fall just now.”

The guests let out a gasp of surprise.

“This… this is not possible!”

The younger girl was already bawling her grievances. “I didn’t. Sis, you misunderstood me…”

Mianmian’s little fair finger pointed to all corners of the banquet hall and said, “There are a total of 12 surveillance cameras in here. The surveillance tapes are in the guard room. If everyone is willing, why don’t we take a look in the guard room instead?”
