Chapter 1695: Clearing the Misunderstanding She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She knew that she had lost her composure, but she couldn’t control herself. She forced an ugly smile and laughed out loud, but she looked even more embarrassed. “Heh… Fanxing, what are you saying? You’re Grandma’s biological granddaughter. How can I not tolerate you? We all want Grandma to be fine. It wasn’t easy for her to find you. If you leave, won’t Grandma be very sad? I think there must be a misunderstanding between us…” Shen Fanxing raised an eyebrow and asked, “Is it a misunderstanding?” “Of course it is.” Shen Fanxing blinked and said, “Since it’s a misunderstanding, I think we should resolve it as soon as possible. Otherwise, what happened today will leave a bad impression on the royal family. If Grandma hears about this, she will be heartbroken.” Bailey clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned white. “You… are right! It’s best if the misunderstanding is resolved.” Her words sounded distant. Shen Fanxing was close to her and she could tell that her breathing was unstable. Nodding her head, Shen Fanxing was very satisfied with her attitude. “In that case, let’s return to the question. How did you know that Grandma had prepared a set of ruby jewelry for me?” Bailey’s lips twitched. Her chest swelled fiercely. “I’ve just said that this is a mistake…” “That’s why we have to resolve the misunderstanding. Did Miss Fina hear wrongly?” Bailey could tell that Shen Fanxing was relentless. This time, he pushed the blame to the birthday girl, Fina. Fina had always been hot-tempered and could not tolerate sand in her eyes. She had already disliked the two of them, and today, she had come uninvited to cause trouble for her. Now, she knew what they were thinking. It wasn’t that she didn’t know what Shen Fanxing was up to, but since she had the chance to teach these two annoying people a lesson, why not? “What do you mean I heard wrongly? I heard it clearly. Who dares to suspect that there’s something wrong with my ears? When Bei Xi grabbed Fanxing and spoke to her just now, I was standing at the side. For some reason, I said that Fanxing had boldly swapped the gift that the Queen had prepared for her. When Fanxing placed the box up, Bei Xi kept mocking her for the size of the gift box. Do you think everyone present is deaf?” Even if all of us here are deaf, I can go with you to see Grandma. We can see if only two people knew that she had prepared a gift for Fanxing. “Also… the two of you. I only invited Fanxing to celebrate my birthday with the royal family. You came eagerly and sent the gift before Fanxing. Bei then asked Fanxing to send the gift. What do you mean by anticipation? In reality, what are you trying to do? Aren’t you trying to embarrass Fanxing in front of so many people? Or you can accuse her of imitating you and giving the same gift?” If Shen Fanxing’s words were a little indirect, then Fina was straightforward and didn’t intend to give them any face. Bei Lei’s face alternated between green and white. Sensing her expression, Bei Xi hid at the side and refused to speak. Everyone’s mocking, contemptuous, and gloating gazes landed on Bailey, making her want to dig a hole and hide in it. However, it was impossible for there to be a crack in the banquet hall of the Burgundy family. In order to obtain the highest attention, they were still standing in the most conspicuous place. There was nowhere to hide. “I… Fina, aren’t you going overboard with your words? We’ve grown up together. Every time you celebrate your birthday…” “Don’t mention friends to me. I don’t have any noble friends like you two. I don’t know if you’re here to celebrate my birthday or to show off. In the past, I couldn’t do anything on account of the royal family. I clearly didn’t invite you this year, but you still want to stand by my side… Do you think your status is too high and you can’t stand below? Or do you think standing below isn’t enough to let others know that you’re princesses?” “Fina!” Finan’s mother, who was standing below the stage, snapped at her for speaking so bluntly. No matter what, she was a princess of the royal family. Even if she was the daughter of an important minister, she couldn’t say such humiliating words. Even if she wasn’t a princess, these words were too much. “What do you want me to do? You always tell me to be sensible, to endure, endure, endure! But it’s fine if it’s only once or twice. What’s the point of my birthday all these years? Why do you always want me to endure when I’m full of anger?! I endured it. I didn’t invite them this year. How shameless are they? Why do they have to stand in front of me to make their presence known?!” “Are they trying to show off their noble status and good figures?! In terms of status, can they compare to the royal family?!” “Fina, shut up!” Lady Burgundy tried to pull her off the stage, but she shook her off. “I didn’t say anything wrong. It’s enough for me to show off for so many years. Can’t you see that the two of them can’t tolerate Fanxing? If you want to scheme against others, you can’t compare to the two of you who were born and raised in the royal family. You don’t have the noble temperament that you have. Now that you’ve fallen, you should bear the consequences! They used my birthday banquet to scheme against others, and I still have to give them face. How useless am I? I’m a descendant of the Burgundy family. I believe that the Queen Grandma is a discerning person. Moreover, even a fool can see through the trick today. There’s no reason for the Queen Grandma not to come out! If they were unhappy, they could complain to their grandmother. Who was afraid of who? Would they dare? How great did they think they were? Those who couldn’t see through their thoughts were fools! They were all princesses, but they had to dress like peacocks every time they attended. Fanxing only knew how to keep a low profile! Did they know what it meant to steal the limelight? Her EQ was so low, but she was so good at herself! Didn’t she feel ashamed?! “…” “…” “…” Everyone fell silent. Everyone was shocked by Finan’s outburst of anger. The only person who dared to say that was Miss Fina. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮 However, her straightforward words made them feel enlightened. Indeed, every time the two sisters appeared, they would stand at the most dazzling spot like the main characters. They controlled all the rhythm and suppressed the true main characters. Just like today, every time she had them, she wanted to do it every year. Miss Fina’s anger today was understandable. A person’s birthday was only once a year, but every time, someone else would steal the limelight. Anyone would feel aggrieved. In that case, no matter what Bei Lei and Bei Xi said, there was nothing they could do. After all, Miss Fina’s straightforward words were enough to make them clear.
