Chapter 90: Sowing discord between the scumbag father and the third son – every thrust is accurate.

After Xia Yuhuan returned to the compound, she asked Uncle Qian to take her to the vicinity of the Xia family's residence.

Although Lao Qian was puzzled, he still obediently did as he was told.

Xia Yuhuan estimated the time and waited for a while before Li Rouyue, her face beaming with barely suppressed laughter, rode back from outside on her bicycle.

"Oh, looks like you're in a pretty good mood, smiling so brightly." Xia Yuhuan crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow as she spoke.

"The situation is so dire, it seems you still don't realize it. If I were you, I wouldn't be laughing."

Upon hearing this, Li Rouyue frowned, got off her bicycle, and asked, "Xia Yuhuan? What are you doing near my house? And what did you mean by what you just said?"

"What do you mean? It seems you really don't know." Xia Yuhuan had a half-smile on her face.

Seeing that Xia Yuhuan didn't intend to continue the conversation, and not wanting to keep her in suspense, Li Rouyue pushed the cart away from her.

"Say it or not, don't be mysterious."

Xia Yuhuan wasn't in a hurry, and simply said, "I saw Xia Jianyong at the hospital today."

Hearing this, Li Rouyue stopped and looked at Xia Yuhuan with a cold smile: "Old Xia is in the hospital, isn't it all your fault? If you hadn't made him vomit blood, he wouldn't have ended up in the hospital."

"How dare you come up to me and say such things now?"

"Do you think your reputation for being unfilial isn't widespread enough, and you want me to help you spread the word?" Li Rouyue asked, amused.

"Not only did I see Xia Jianyong, but I also saw a young and pretty girl next to him. They looked quite intimate," Xia Yuhuan said with a smile.

Li Rouyue scoffed at her words: "You think you can sow discord between me and Lao Xia with such lies? You're dreaming!"

"Old Xia and I are doing great, and I won't let you try to seduce me."

"Also, Lao Xia only has me in his heart, and he would never have a relationship with other women."

Li Rouyue still trusted Xia Jianyong in this respect.

Apart from Xia Zhuyu, she has not had any more children all these years, yet Xia Jianyong has never complained about her in the slightest, nor has he ever cheated on her. How can you say he is unfaithful?

Besides, Xia Jianyong didn't mess around when he was young, and now that he's older and still wants to climb the corporate ladder, it's even less likely that he'll do anything like that.

"Really?" Xia Yuhuan whispered in Li Rouyue's ear, "But I saw your shadow in that girl."

Upon hearing this, Li Rouyue's lips stiffened slightly.

"Do you think it's because you're older and not as gentle, beautiful, and attractive as you were when you were young? Xia Jianyong no longer has those feelings for you, so he's looking for a younger girl who looks like you to fill the strange desires in his heart?"

Xia Yuhuan looked curious and gossipy.

Li Rouyue was already starting to panic, and her lips twitched slightly, but she still said, "Impossible, Lao Xia would never betray me."

"Don't even think about trying to sow discord between my husband and me. I don't believe a single word you say."

With that, Li Rouyue left without lingering.

Xia Yuhuan didn't mind her bad attitude. As Li Rouyue left, she said indifferently, "That girl's name is Du Wanying. If you're curious, you can look her up."

Li Rouyue's steps clearly paused.

But she didn't stop and quickly pushed the cart back into the yard.

Xia Yuhuan didn't care; her purpose in coming here was to provoke Li Rouyue.

As long as you tell Li Rouyue that Xia Jianyong may have cheated on her, Li Rouyue will take care of the rest herself.

After all, Li Rouyue is a capable person who managed to rise from mistress to the position of third wife and maintain a stable status for so many years.

Once Xia Jianyong's own affairs fall apart, let's see if he still has the mind to use her. Humph!

Xia Yuhuan hummed softly in a very good mood, then turned around and leisurely returned home.

When she got back, Zhang Xianya was already home.

Seeing her return, he glanced at her and asked, "You didn't suffer any losses, did you?"

Xia Yuhuan was taken aback, then smiled and shook her head: "No, do you think I'm the kind of person who would suffer a loss?"

Zhang Xianya smiled and nodded: "It's good that we didn't suffer any losses."

"Aren't you going to ask me what I went to the Xia family for? Aren't you curious?" Xia Yuhuan asked Zhang Xianya with a smile as she sat down next to her.

Zhang Xianya chuckled and said, "I am curious, but this is ultimately your business. If you are willing to tell me, you will naturally do so, and I can find out without asking. If you don't want to tell me, and I ask anyway, wouldn't that put you in a difficult position?"

Clearly, Zhang Xianya was considering Xia Yuhuan's best interests in everything she did.

Xia Yuhuan looked at Zhang Xianya with a soft gaze and leaned on her shoulder, telling her about how Xia Jianyong had taken advantage of her by impersonating her earlier that day.

"I just went to give Li Rouyue a heads-up, to warn Xia Jianyong that his backyard wasn't so secure, and added fuel to the fire," Xia Yuhuan said, pouting.

Zhang Xianya frowned: "This Xia Jianyong is too shameless. You've already severed ties, yet he's still blatantly taking advantage of you."

"However, how did he know that you and Dean Sun are related as master and niece?" Zhang Xianya asked, puzzled.

“If I could accidentally see him cheating on me with someone in the hospital, he could naturally have seen me having contact with my senior colleague in the hospital as well,” Xia Yuhuan said.

"However, he probably doesn't know about my relationship with my senior brother, or rather, he probably misunderstood our relationship."

"Misunderstood your relationship? Misunderstood what relationship?" Zhang Xianya didn't react for a moment.

Xia Yuhuan laughed nonchalantly, "What kind of relationship could there be between a man and a woman?"

Zhang Xianya was furious upon hearing this, her face filled with disbelief: "Xia Jianyong is your own father, how could he think of you like that?"

Xia Yuhuan wasn't angry at all. She smiled and said, "I've severed ties with him. He's not my father anymore. Let him think what he wants."

"Besides, he's a despicable person, and he just happened to be with Xiao Si, so it's normal for him to have dirty thoughts."

Seeing her carefree attitude, Zhang Xianya's anger dissipated considerably.

"You silly girl, knowing how much he misses you, you can still laugh? Aren't you angry?" Zhang Xianya said helplessly, holding her hand.

"He's a stranger to me now, and he might even be my enemy in the future, so why should I be angry about what he thinks of me?" Xia Yuhuan said indifferently.

She added, "If it were you or Dad who didn't believe me and thought of me like that, I would be heartbroken."

Zhang Xianya poked her forehead in annoyance: "What nonsense are you talking about, child? How could your father and I possibly think of you like that? Never in this lifetime!"

Xia Yuhuan smiled and said, "Of course I believe you two wouldn't do that."

But as long as a person is alive, they are in a state of constant change, and no one can guarantee what will happen in the future.

Although Zhang Xianya and Chi Shaokang are both very good people, and she believes that Zhang Xianya is speaking from the heart at this moment, she is not sure if there will be any unexpected events in the future.

What if she were framed and people thought she had done something terrible, something utterly heinous, and the setup was so convincing that everyone believed she was a bad person? Would Zhang Xianya and Chi Shaokang still stand firmly by her side?

She didn't know, wasn't sure, and didn't want to test human nature.

She just wants to be herself.

They're good to her now, so she'll be good to them in return.

All feelings are reciprocal; they love her, and she will try her best to love them in return.

If one day they stop loving her, she will be sad and regretful, but she will never linger. She will do everything in her power to painfully sever the ties that have soured.

Although it will be painful and difficult, it is better than letting her wallow in a bad relationship and making yourself miserable every day.
