Chapter 387 Flowers
"Bring in the flowers," Lily said, ignoring Qin Mo’s outbursts. Dozens of men in black instantly came inside holding bouquets of white Lilies.
"You ingrate!" Qin Fei butted in before she marched towards Lily. She raised her hand, with the intention to slap her but one of Lily’s bodyguards stopped her.
"Mrs. Xuan... you wouldn’t want to hurt me." Lily smiled as she marched inside, earning some gasps from the people who heard what her words.
Qin Fei and Qin Mo’s eyes instantly met before he signaled one of the people attending the wake to take a live video of the things that will happen. This was already something that they expected to happen.
"Give each person one folder." Lily’s voice echoed once again.
"What folders?" Tang Lingyun asked, her face still pale and her eyes were swollen from crying since she knew that her only son died. "Why are you here? What you did... You already did everything to ruin us. Are you not contented? Do you really want to push every one of us to death?"
Lily only watched as Tang Lingyun approached her. "We raised you! Feed you! Cloth you! But the moment you marry into someone more influential than us, you asked him to make us suffer! What kind of human are you?"
"The kind that you raised," Lily answered shortly as she watched everyone started to opened their own folders, interest clouded their gazes. "The folders contain proof that I owned everything from the Qins. As someone who is from the main clan, I was supposed to own everything. You can also see the DNA test made by me and my biological father, Qin Chuan, the current master of the Qin Family in Mainland China. Do you see? I don’t need to ask my husband to make you suffer. These documents are enough to throw you out of this mansion."
"Lies!" Qin Mo boomed as he grabbed one folder and tore it to shreds. "These are all fakes! Lies! You greedy b*tch!" Qin Mo completely lost his composure as he tried to attacked Lily. But as expected, one of her guards stopped him. "None of these were true! None!" Despite being in a wheelchair, Qin Mo still tried his best to reach out to Lily.
"Well... that’s the reason why I have our family Lawyer with me, right?" She smirked.

"I can attest that everything written in here are facts. We have witnesses and enough proof on our side." The lawyer calmly said, his gaze straight and his face were devoid of any expression.
"See? Why do you think I still need to ask my husband to ruin you? Tsk... Tsk..." Lily shook her head. "I was feeling a little emotional lately, so I didn’t bother you and your family. Yet, you still dared to scheme against me?"
"You! Stop this nonsense! Can you at least respect my brother’s body? He was murdered, Lily! Your husband killed him because he wanted to expose Zhuo Jingren." Qin Fei said, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"That is right Mrs. Zhuo, your husband is a criminal. Stop protecting him. The people that he killed were simply countless. We need justice." One of the bystanders said, his voice low.
"Rich people always have big secrets. It was Liwei’s bad luck to stumble into one. At least give the government the power to investigate Mrs. Zhuo. If he was really innocent, then you should fear nothing, right?"
"Right! I also agree with Mr. Tan and Mr. Sy. As someone who had been around for a long time, we both know how he had reached the pinnacle of success in a matter of years. It is expected for him to have some dark secrets." Another one chimed in.
"I see." Lily nodded as she stared at the people who spoke. "Kicking him while he is down, eh?" She roamed her eyes at everyone before her lips lifted into a smile. "Then what do you think is this?" After Lily spoke, Qin Liwei’s voice echoed inside the whole place.
"Come on Lily." Qin Liwei said. "Aren’t you even interested to know how many people your husband murdered? How he asked his men to massacre a family back in Japan? I mean... If that does not interest, you. I don’t know what will."
"What if it doesn’t?" Lily’s words followed.
"Well... what if I tell you that I have proof enough to make him rot in prison?" Qin Liwei lifted an eyebrow, making Lily narrowed her eyes at him.
"What do you want?"
"For starters... I want the Qin Industry back under my name."
The recording stopped, leaving a lot of murmurs and gasp.
"See?" Lily raised an eyebrow. "It was he who approached me first. He wanted the company that wasn’t his. However.... That evidence was not even enough to request for an investigation. So... I let him go." She shrugged. "If I wanted him dead... I would not have killed him just after his accident. It would only attract more people’s attention. If you think you can use this incident to defeat me... you are wrong Mr. Qin... you are so... wrong."
Everyone who heard Lily’s words frowned. Lily’s words made sense, and she was right, if she wanted someone dead, she would not do it in a way that would attract the attention of the police and the media. She was not a fool, and she had been around in the industry for so long to know that.
"Now... since I have already made this clear, it’s time for me to... asked what you owed me. Isn’t that right? Father?" She gave Qin Mo a dashing smile. In response, the latter seemed to have lost all the color in his face. He opened his mouth as he tried to utter a response, an answer to her words but he was unable to do so.
Qin Mo knows that Lily had been eyeing him because of what he did to her child. He always knew that this time will come, but he had always been looking for ways to stop it.
He swallowed a mouthful of nonexistent saliva as he stared at Lily’s smiling face.
