Chapter 791: Chapter 791: Expose You on the Spot

"Illusion, it was all an illusion, definitely magic, an eye-blocking technique."

Sun Zhuangjia sat on a chair constantly scrolling through his phone, muttering to himself.

"Sun, what’s happened to you?" Li Wenmao asked, puzzled as he looked at Sun Zhuangjia.

"Ah! Don’t mention it, ever since he returned from the Su Family’s banquet yesterday, he has been acting crazy, researching various ways to debunk magic tricks, I don’t know what he’s up to!"

Sun Wuchang sighed in frustration. He had asked his son what had happened, but Sun Zhuangjia ignored him completely, which irritated him deeply.

"Alright then."

Li Wenmao shook his head, unable to understand the specifics of what had happened.

As Sun Zhuangjia flipped through his phone, he scratched his head in confusion. He had looked through countless secrets of magic tricks, yet he still hadn’t found a way to debunk the kind of magic Tang Xin had shown at her cultivation yesterday, and it was driving him nearly insane.

After all the guests had arrived, a middle-aged man, who looked similar to Old Master Su, stepped up to give a speech. This man was Su Xiaoxi’s father, Su Tianyu.

Initially, when Su Tianyu received the notification from the old master, he was shocked. Su Xiaoxi was the old master’s most cherished granddaughter, and many talented young men in Imperial City wanted her favor, but the old master had refused them all. Unexpectedly, the old master’s trip to Songhai City was to arrange Su Xiaoxi’s engagement, scaring him as a father.

After arriving in Songhai to understand the situation, Su Tianyu realized that Tang Xin was a fine young man, even the old master was afraid of losing him as a grandson-in-law, hence the engagement. However, he still hadn’t met the famed future son-in-law, which left him very frustrated and also very curious about what kind of person could impress the old master so much.

Frustrated as he was, but for his daughter’s happiness and the old master’s command, he diligently carried on with the speech on the stage, taking the Su family’s prestige very seriously.

The guests present might not have been many, but each one was a heavyweight. Only strong families could establish relations with the Su family, so the event was very grand.

After the speech, Su Tianyu raised his hand towards the spiral staircase on the second floor and loudly said, "Now, please welcome today’s protagonist with warm applause."

Except for the people from Qi family and Wu Xiaoyu, everyone immediately began clapping enthusiastically, then looking up to the second floor.

"Hahaha, very good indeed."

The radiant-faced Old Master Su first appeared at the top of the stairs.

Following him, Su Xiaoxi, clad in a long white dress, and Tang Ming in formal attire, appeared behind Old Master Su, greeting guests below as they descended the stairs.

"Xiaoyu, that young man is Tang Xin; it was him and his people who injured mine yesterday."

Seeing Tang Ming appear, Qi Liu Hai glared at Wu Xiaoyu fiercely, then...

Wu Xiaoyu stared intently at Tang Ming, her brain not quite catching up. "You’re saying this Tang Xin is him?"

"Yes, this guy, relying on being the Su family’s son-in-law, dares to be arrogant and haughty, and his followers are just as reckless — not only did they injure me, but they also hurt my father. Cousin, you must take my side."

Qi Bikou looked pitifully at Wu Xiaoyu, pleading.

"Bullshit, he is not Tang Xin at all."

Wu Xiaoyu cursed and immediately stood up to walk forward.

The Qi family father and son exchanged glances, also hurrying to follow, as the situation seemed quite unexpected.

"Hello everyone, thank you all for attending my granddaughter’s engagement banquet with Mr. Tang Xin," the old man began.

Grandpa Su walked into the hall, his spirits high as he was about to speak.

"He’s not Tang Xin at all, you’ve all been deceived."

Before Grandpa Su could finish, Wu Xiaoyu stepped forward from the crowd and pointed at Tang Ming, asking, "Tang Ming, what are you playing at?"

"Hmm?"

Grandpa Su was slightly startled and frowned at Wu Xiaoyu, "Young lady from the Wu Family, you are mistaken. This is my son-in-law, Tang Xin, not Tang Ming. He and Tang Ming are twin brothers."

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu appear, Grandpa Su felt a wave of confusion. In order not to alert the many people coming from the Capital City, he had not notified the Wu Family. How did this girl get here?

Tang Ming wore a puzzled expression, wondering how this woman could have showed up here?

"Grandpa Su, you have been deceived."

Wu Xiaoyu, not wanting to be impolite to Grandpa Su, bowed and then firmly stated, "Tang Ming has no brother at all, and I’m very clear about his roles in the Dark Group. The person holding the position is definitely Tang Ming, not Tang Xin."

Grandpa Su furrowed his brow slightly, Wu Xiaoyu was a high-ranking member of the Dark Group, and Tang Xin as a special member of the Dark Group should know Wu Xiaoyu, but what was happening now?

Sun Zhuangjia, who had been scrolling through his phone, noticed someone stepping forward to accuse Tang Ming, immediately joined in excitedly, "Exactly, I knew it! Tang Xin must be Tang Ming, they are the same person, and now it is not just me who thinks so. Tang Ming, what do you have to say for yourself?"

"Do I need to say anything?"

Tang Ming glanced at Sun Zhuangjia and helplessly looked at Wu Xiaoyu, "Miss, Tang Ming is my elder brother, and my name is Tang Xin. If you don’t believe me, here is my ID. You should recognize it, shouldn’t you?"

After finishing his statement, Tang Ming tossed his ID to Wu Xiaoyu and coolly said, "You should know the rules of the Dark Group. What should a lower-ranking member do when they see a senior officer?"

Wu Xiaoyu opened the ID skeptically, only to be stunned. The name on it was indeed Tang Xin, different from the temporary ID she had seen at the school.

Previously, Wu Xiaoyu had seen Tang Ming’s ID when she was at the school, but at that time Tang Ming had just taken over as the leader of the Martial Arts Inspection Team and, due to time constraints, Lin Canghai had initially applied for a temporary ID for Tang Ming, which indeed bore Tang Ming’s name.

Later, when Lin Canghai processed the official ID for Tang Ming, he schemed to annoy Tang Ming by using the name Tang Xin, but since the character for "sugar" (糖 - Tang) wasn’t part of last names, he reluctantly changed it to Tang Xin.

Because of this, Tang Ming even had a big argument with Lin Canghai, never expecting that Lin Canghai’s actions would now grant him two identities.

Of course, Wu Xiaoyu was unaware of these matters, as her authority did not permit her to investigate Tang Ming’s position, leaving her baffled as well.

"What is going on here?"

Wu Xiaoyu stared intently at the ID in her hand, the organizational records clearly indicated Tang Ming was appointed as the Martial Arts Inspection Team leader, so why was the ID now showing Tang Xin?

"Wu Xiaoyu."

Noticing Wu Xiaoyu dazed, Tang Ming’s expression hardened as he sternly called out.

"Present."

Instinctively, Wu Xiaoyu straightened up and respectfully announced, "Subordinate Wu Xiaoyu, reporting to Chief Tang."
