Ye Fanxing was so angry at Ye Ruyi's words that she laughed. She picked up the water glass on the table and splashed it hard on Ye Ruyi's face.

"Ye Ruyi, what right do you have to settle scores with me?"

"You are the one who abandoned your husband and children."

"You're the one who doesn't care whether your parents live or die."

"You're the one who spread rumors about my father's domestic violence."

You're the one who raised a useless stepdaughter!

Ye Ruyi didn't answer Ye Fanxing's previous question at all, because she was afraid that her stepmother's reputation would be damaged.

"Ye Fanxing, stop talking nonsense. When did I ever ruin Luo Luo?"

Ye Ruyi's outburst woke up not only Ye Fanxing's roommates but also the roommates in the next dormitory.

Watching a spectacle is human nature.

Everyone gathered at the entrance of Ye Fanxing's dormitory to watch the excitement.

"Ye Ruyi, you can fool others, but you can't fool me. Jiang Luoluo is just a bargaining chip for you to gain a foothold in the Jiang family."

"On the surface, you are very obedient to Jiang Luoluo, but in reality, you just want to keep Jiang Luoluo firmly in your own hands. As for what Jiang Luoluo's life will become, you never care."

"Just like tonight, you could have told Jiang Luoluo that you are a snob and that you have unrealistic ambitions, but you didn't."

"You lied to her and said that my father was abusive to you, and you tried to get Jiang Luoluo to fight for you."

"There are gods watching over you. Put your hand on your conscience. Has my father ever abused you?"

Ye Ruyi never imagined that Ye Fanxing would be so eloquent, nor did she expect that Ye Fanxing could guess her thoughts over the years even though she had never thought about Ye Fanxing.

Is this what they call bloodline innate nature?

"Ye Fanxing, stop changing the subject. I'm talking about Jiang Luoluo right now!"

Ye Fanxing shrugged indifferently.

"Jiang Luoluo is an adult. She ran away on her own. What does it have to do with me?"

Besides, the one who starts it is the one who's shameless! I'm not her mother, why should I indulge her?

Instead of disturbing my sleep, why don't you go and comfort your precious stepdaughter!

The other students in the dormitory also joined Ye Fanxing in criticizing Ye Ruyi.

"Auntie, Jiang Luoluo ran away on her own!"

"You've spoiled Jiang Luoluo too much! If you can't afford to gamble, don't gamble!"

"Jiang Luoluo has been taking advantage of Ye Fanxing's mother for so many years, how can she still have the nerve to treat Ye Fanxing like this?"

"Didn't you hear what Ye Fanxing said? She deliberately spoiled Jiang Luoluo!"

"If Ye Fanxing had a choice, she definitely wouldn't want a woman like that as her biological mother!"

Jiang Desheng and Jiang Jiefang are two men, and perhaps they don't understand Ye Ruyi's thoughts.

Originally, if they had been living peacefully together, Ye Fanxing would have simply watched from the sidelines.

But now... Ye Ruyi has repeatedly provoked her, so she has no choice but to strike at her weakest point.

Yan Wanqing walked up to Ye Ruyi and said in a deep voice, "Aunt Ye, the most urgent thing right now is to find Luo Luo. Don't cause any more trouble!"

Ye Ruyi stared intently at Ye Fanxing, a chill suddenly rising in her heart.

That night, almost everyone the Jiang family knew went out to search for Jiang Luoluo.

Jiang Luoluo is at such a beautiful age, and she is all alone, so everyone is very worried that she might encounter bad people.

Of course, the truth about Jiang Luoluo's disappearance also came to the attention of all of Jiang's relatives and friends on this day.

All the relatives and friends looked at Ye Ruyi with a sense of inquiry and scrutiny.

Before Ye Fanxing appeared, almost everyone thought that Ye Ruyi was a perfect stepmother, one in a million.

Jiang Luoluo and Ye Ruyi are closer than biological mother and daughter.

At first, everyone thought Ye Ruyi might not be a good stepmother, but as the days went by, Ye Ruyi successfully won everyone's praise.

Over time, Ye Ruyi became quite satisfied with her current life.

It wasn't until Ye Fanxing's true identity was revealed that Ye Ruyi's past was exposed to the world.

Only then did everyone realize that Ye Ruyi was a liar!

She might even be a vain, materialistic, and superficial woman.

Most people don't understand why Ye Ruyi would be so heartless. Her daughter is already eighteen years old, yet she doesn't care about her at all, as if she had never given birth to this person.

She may not love her husband or her daughter, but she doesn't even care about the parents who raised her. Such cold-blooded and ruthless behavior makes everyone subconsciously keep their distance from Ye Ruyi.

Ye Ruyi's worst fears came true.

Ye Fanxing's appearance destroyed all her hard work over the years.

She's going to lose everything!

Meanwhile, what Ye Fanxing said in the dormitory also reached Jiang Desheng's ears.

Jiang Desheng, who was already overwhelmed with problems, was taken aback when Ye Fanxing offered him a new idea he had never considered before.

He always thought he was in control of Ye Ruyi's life, but little did he know that Ye Ruyi had unknowingly ruined Jiang Luoluo.

Is Ye Ruyi, who dotes on Jiang Luoluo, really a good stepmother?

When everyone's search was fruitless, Ye Ruyi suddenly thought of a place.

She walked silently toward the martyrs' cemetery without telling anyone.

Jiang Luoluo's biological mother was a martyr.

Over the years, in order to establish a good image as an "ideal stepmother," Ye Ruyi has brought Jiang Luoluo to visit her senior quite often.

Even at dawn, the martyrs' cemetery did not feel eerie or terrifying.

Ye Ruyi immediately saw Jiang Luoluo sitting in front of the tombstone, crying.

"Lolo!"

Ye Ruyi ran up to Jiang Luoluo and hugged her tightly.
