Ye Weiwei's face turned deathly pale. "So, this is what you really think! No wonder, no wonder! Zhao Mingzhe was clearly my fiancé before, so you should have called him brother-in-law or Comrade Zhao. But for all these years, you've always called him Brother Mingzhe. So you've been harboring those thoughts all along!"

Liu Guilan spat on the ground, "Pah! Shameless vixen! And you're supposed to be Weiwei's cousin! Knowing that Weiwei and Zhao Mingzhe have been engaged since childhood, you still secretly seduce him. Are all the men in the world dead? You have to steal your own sister's man! You're a truly despicable wretch! My Weiwei always thought you were a good person, but you heartless bastard hurt her like this, saying you're doing it for my Weiwei's own good. Pah! Do you think we're all fools who can't see that every word you say is a provocation and a trap!"

"Pah!" Xiaoshan, mimicking his grandmother, put his hands on his hips and cursed, "Shameless!"

Xiao Chuan quickly put his hands on his hips, sucked in his belly, and spat forcefully, "Vixen!"

These two boys, one six years old and the other four, were very close to their grandmother, Liu Guilan. When they saw Liu Guilan scolding Ye Wanwan, they didn't want to be left behind.

Ye Weiwei was both amused and exasperated by the two little ones. If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, she would have loved to pat their heads and pinch their cheeks.

"I didn't! Ye Weiwei, don't frame me! Mingzhe and I... Zhao Mingzhe are completely innocent..." Ye Wanwan tried her best to defend herself.

She didn't know what had gotten into her just now, but she blurted out all the thoughts she had been keeping hidden in her heart!

It's like it's possessed by an evil spirit, completely out of control!

However, she absolutely cannot accept this outcome.

"Captain, now you know why I taught this scoundrel a lesson, right?" Ye Weiwei completely ignored Ye Wanwan. Her eyes were red-rimmed, and her voice was filled with disappointment and sadness. "I admit that I'm a straightforward person. I say what I think and I don't play mind games with people. My temper is also not as good as my good cousin's. I'm not likable. But even if I'm not good, at least I'm upright and honest. I wouldn't do something like being two-faced and seducing my own sister's fiancé!"

Here's another cup of green tea, and I'll completely crush you!

From now on, the bad reputation of having seduced her cousin's fiancé will always follow Ye Wanwan.

"Who said you're not likable? Your auntie likes you just the way you are." Seeing Ye Weiwei's eyes brimming with tears of grievance, yet she stubbornly held back her sobs, Liu Guilan felt a pang of heartache and tightly grasped Ye Weiwei's hand to comfort her.

"Yes, Ye Zhiqing, you're much better than your cunning cousin. We country folk are uneducated, but we like to be straightforward and don't play mind games with others!"

"This is outrageous! Ye Wanwan keeps saying she's doing this for Ye Zhiqing's good, and I thought she really meant it. Who knew she was such a shameless bastard!"

"If it were truly for Ye Zhiqing's good, would she secretly seduce Ye Zhiqing's fiancé?"

"You can know a person's face but not their heart!"

"Ye Zhiqing is too kind-hearted! If it were me, a few slaps wouldn't be enough to vent my anger on those two scoundrels. They should be sent to the police station and jail!"

"Ye Zhiqing fought well!"

"These two scoundrels deserve to be taught a lesson!"

"..."

"Ye Weiwei, what happened to you?" Zhao Mingzhe looked at Ye Weiwei with an expression that said, "You're simply unreasonable," his face full of disappointment.

In the past, whenever he looked at Ye Weiwei with that kind of gaze, Ye Weiwei would doubt herself and reflect on her actions, and then restrain her temper and do things according to Zhao Mingzhe's preferences.

However, Ye Weiwei doesn't buy into that at all now.

She first looked Zhao Mingzhe up and down, then shook her head in disappointment. "Zhao Mingzhe, I've always been like this. It's you who's changed! Do you expect me to list all the benefits you and your family have gained from our marriage over the years?"

Ye Weiwei sneered, "What? Now that your father has become the workshop director, my family is no longer useful to your family, so you're starting to complain and want to kick me aside?"

"You're talking nonsense! Stop slandering me!" Zhao Mingzhe, who always valued his reputation, retorted loudly in anger upon hearing this.

"Am I talking nonsense? Back then, to save you, my grandfather used up two hundred-year-old wild ginseng passed down from our ancestors! I believe everyone here knows that this two-hundred-year-old wild ginseng is an extremely rare and precious item, and it is priceless even now!"

We were only betrothed as children, not even married yet, and your family is already spreading the news everywhere, as if afraid no one knows your family is going to marry into ours. Over the years, thanks to my grandfather's and my family's connections, your father became a workshop foreman, your mother became the neighborhood women's director, and even your extended family members are constantly coming over to ask for favors. You say the marriage was arranged by our elders and you don't like me, but every time you try to get something out of me, you don't hold back at all. I've never seen anyone as shameless as you!"

Today, she's going to completely tear off Zhao Mingzhe's hypocritical mask and let everyone know what kind of person he really is!

"My God! A two-hundred-year-old wild ginseng! You're willing to give away something so precious!"

"Ye's family really went to great lengths for Zhao!"

"Yes, even relatives have been taken care of. What more could Zhao, the educated youth, possibly want?"

"Who knows? Ye Zhiqing is so pretty, and Zhao Zhiqing doesn't even like her. I don't know what's wrong with his brain."

"You don't know this, do you? It's always been like this since ancient times: a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a stolen affair..."

"He accepted so many favors and then broke off the engagement, he's a real scoundrel!"

"..."

Hearing everyone around her criticizing Zhao Mingzhe, Lu Xiaolan angrily retorted loudly, "You're talking nonsense! Zhao Mingzhe is not that kind of person!"

Ye Weiwei looked at Lu Xiaolan with a mixture of pity and disdain!

This woman, like the original owner, was love-struck and was completely fooled by Zhao Mingzhe, a pretty boy, ultimately ending up being trafficked.

Ye Weiwei pointed at Zhao Mingzhe's Zhongshan suit and leather shoes and said, "Zhao Zhiqing, you said yesterday that you would return the things I gave you before, so why are you wearing them again today? We've already broken off our engagement, how can you be so shameless?"

"And what's wrong with you riding my bicycle again today? You rode my bicycle without even saying hello. Zhao Zhiqing, you always pride yourself on coming from a scholarly family, don't you know that taking something without permission is stealing? Your upbringing is a disgrace to our scholarly family!"

Zhao Mingzhe clenched his fists, his face dark. "I didn't mean to. I won't do it again."

The road was still wet from the rain a couple of days ago, and he didn't want to get his leather shoes dirty, so he rode his bicycle to work. Besides, he had gotten used to riding his bicycle everywhere these days. He never expected that Ye Weiwei would be so heartless. It was just a bicycle ride, and she had to bring it up and embarrass him in public!
