Rebirth: I Became Mr.President's Beloved-Chapter 5 - : Making Minister Song Laugh

A voice light as a feather brushed past Lai Yuaner's ears, shocking her into swiftly turning her head to see Tang Li's slightly upturned lips.

"You!" Lai Yuaner snapped, lifting her hand high.

Her slap hadn't yet landed on Tang Li's face when her right wrist was firmly grasped!

The tight grip caused Lai Yuaner's complexion to turn pale with pain.

From not far away, Lai Yuaner's friends wanted to step forward.

Tang Li moved imperceptibly forward, closing the half-step distance, nearly pressing against Lai Yuaner's body, and the seductive words lingered in Lai Yuaner's ears: "Do you know what it feels like to be on the verge of death?"

A sudden fear surged from the bottom of Lai Yuaner's heart.

Because she realized the malice in Tang Li's words.

Lai Yuaner instinctively stepped back: "What... what do you want to do? Ah—"

Her high-heeled shoe missed the edge of the swimming pool.

Suddenly, Tang Li let go.

'Plop—!'

Lai Yuaner plunged into the pool, splashing a large spray of water!

"Yuanyuan!" A girl exclaimed.

Another girl turned to run for help.

Struggling in the water, the endless pool water pouring into her mouth and nose, through her blurry vision, Lai Yuaner saw Tang Li standing by the poolside, seemingly enjoying her plight and helplessness.

Fear spread throughout her body, and Lai Yuaner gasped: "Help, help me..."

"Don't just stand there, rescue the young lady!"

It was Lai Wenyan's voice.

Tang Li turned her head—

The guests were surrounding Lai Family People, coming head-on.

A bodyguard had already jumped into the pool.

Old Madam Lai, supported by servants, wearing a dark red Tang suit, her silver hair combed into a bun, dignified and elegant, seeing her little granddaughter in the water, was more anxious than anyone: "Quickly pull her up, hurry!"

Lai Wenyan's face was ashen, and with a turn of his head, he noticed Tang Li's presence.

"It was her!" Lai Yuaner's friend pointed at Tang Li: "She's the one who pushed Yuanyuan into the pool!"

In an instant, numerous suspicious glances were cast.

Under everyone's scrutiny, Tang Li's already pale face lost the last trace of color, yet she stood up straight, as if to show her innocence.

Lai Wenyan approached her: "Did you push Yuanyuan into the water?"

His tone was cold, but his conviction was firm.

Tang Li remained silent, just gazing straight back at him.

Lai Wenyan didn't expect Tang Li to sneak out tonight, let alone show up at the birthday party, and now to have pushed Yuanyuan into the pool, the irritability in his heart made him raise his hand.

"Wenyan!" Ouyang Qian, who hurried over, caught Lai Wenyan in time.

She glanced at her daughter who had been saved and pulled her husband's hand, gently persuading: "Don't be impulsive."

On the other side came Lai Yuaner's sobbing cries.

Lai Wenyan and his wife went to see their daughter.

As they passed by, Tang Li whispered: "I didn't push her."

But no one stopped.

Seeing Lai Wenyan squatting down beside Lai Yuaner to ask with concern, Tang Li lowered her head, about to leave, when her left cheek took a hard slap!

The slap was crisp, swelling half of Tang Li's face.

Old Madam Lai was extremely repulsed by this grandchild who shrank back timidly, especially when she knew that the child's mother was a drug trafficker's daughter, virtually pinning their Lai Family to the pillar of shame. At this moment, she almost bit her teeth as she questioned: "Why aren't you staying in your room, what are you doing here? Since when is it your turn to show off at a Lai Family banquet?"

Tang Li covered her left cheek, her lips slightly parted: "...I didn't, Auntie asked me to come here."

"Still trying to argue!" Old Madam Lai was fuming.

Just then, a gentle male voice came from the side: "If it's a misunderstanding, just make it clear."

Tang Li turned towards the voice.

Recognizing who it was, Old Madam Lai quickly reined in her anger, her eyes softening: "The children at home are naught and made a laughingstock in front of Minister Song."
