Chapter 5

  After the song, there was thunderous applause.   Some guests had tears in their eyes. Everyone agreed, it was bewitchingly beautiful. The younger guests who had recorded the performance were now busy posting it on social media, expressing themselves through emoticons in the caption. Soon, her performance was circulating with a hashtag #NoLifeWithoutToniYun.   Most of these guests have never seen her play, and some of them wondered, have Antoinette Yun's talent come out all of a sudden? Few people knew hjer personally, but everyone seemed to sensed that she had changed somehow.   Antoinette sat for a few seconds, calmed down the emotions in her heart for a while, stood up and bowed to the stage. The crowd roared with even more applause, but as she was about to get off the stage, it died down. There was a commotion at the door, and then a group of policemen walked in.   "We received news that someone was taking drugs and hiding them at the banquet. Please cooperate with us."   The faces of the guests changed drastically. Alarmed, everyone looked around at each other.   Antoinette Yun's eyes narrowed. It’s begun.   Before she'd been given this second chance, when she’d accused Steve Gu of marital rape on the stage, Steve was so angry that he left.   Suddenly, she was framed for drug addiction. At this time, the police had just arrived. They not only caught her high on drugs, they had also found a small bag of K powder in the inner lining of her bag.   It was a huge scandal that rocked Pingcheng at that time.   Everyone talked about it, Mr. Ye’s granddaughter had taken drugs at his birthday banquet. She had fallen from grace in the blink of an eye.   But Alexandra Yun, who had reported and exposed her, instantly became a hero.   Now, though it was the same party, and the same frame-up, she hadn’t fallen for the trap Alexandra had set for her, it had noticeably diverged from the events she remembered. Antoinette's uncle, Carl Ye, helped Grandpa walk over.   "What happened?"   The police obviously knew him and bowed his head slightly, "Sir, we’ve received a report that someone here had taken drugs. There was also a tip that there are drugs hidden in this person’s belongings. We need to conduct a closed search here."   Carl Ye frowned. "Can it be a misunderstanding? Those present today are all celebrities in the business and political circles. Maybe it’s just someone seeking to make a scandal?"   Just then, Alexandra seemed to suddenly remember something, and covered her mouth in disbelief.   A policeman noticed her actions and walked over. "Miss, what's wrong?"   Alexandra's eyes flickered, "No, nothing."   "It is against the law to not report what you know. Please cooperate with us."   Alexandra trembled slightly, and then looked at Antoinette Yun embarrassedly.   "I, I just thought I saw her hiding in the bathroom... I'm not sure if I’m wrong, I must be wrong!"   As soon as this was said, the audience was in an uproar.   Antoinette Yun, taking drugs?   The granddaughter of the dignified Ye family, how could she play this kind of thing at her grandfather’s birthday party? Then everyone quickly thought of the absurd things Antoinette Yun had done in the past few years. Alexandra’s story seemed quite plausible.   Antoinette Yun smiled slightly.   "Sister, are you sure that the person you saw in the bathroom was me?"   Alexandra Yun nodded slowly, "Yes, I think so."   The police came to Antoinette Yun, "Miss Yun, we ask you to cooperate with us."   When Carl Ye saw this, his face sank. He wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the patriarch.   He believed that his granddaughter Antoinette would never do such a thing.   Although if she really had really done it, then she deserved to be taken away by the police!   At the same time, the second uncle Chris Ye also whispered to Steve Gu, "Hey, you wife is in trouble, won't you go up and help?"   Steve Gu stared at the stage closely.   He saw that even though she was accused of concealing drugs, she did not panic at all. On the contrary, she had a calm and composed attitude. To be honest, it made her delicate little face more attractive than ever.   "She didn't do it."   He knew better than anyone if Antoinette Yun had taken drugs or not.   So he was not afraid of the investigation at all.   At this moment, Antoinette Yun also responded loudly.   "No problem. I will galdly submit myself to be inspected. It’s in my best interest to be checked here and now.” She turned her cold eyes to Alexandra Yun standing just below the stage. “But I won’t take these accusations lightly. Especially when they’re proven to be false." She put emphasis on the word, when.   She didn’t say if, but when, Alexandra noted.   "Maybe she had really seen something and mistook me for someone else,” she continued. “Maybe she's deliberately framing me. My innocence will speak for itself,” she said with a cold smile on her face.   “If, later, I am proven to have taken drugs, then I should be punished accordingly. But, if I’m innocent, shouldn’t you apologize to me? "   Alexandra Yun stood still. Apologize? She wanted to refuse. But thinking of what she had put in her sister’s wine, she swallowed her refusal.   "If I really wronged my sister, of course I would apologize.” Then she looked around. “But, my sister is known for making trouble, and today is grandpa’s birthday party. I can’t just stand aside while she makes a fool of my grandpa and my family.”   Antoinette sneered at her. "Really? If that's the case, let's take a big bet, okay?"
