She's quite irritable right now. Why is it that no matter what happens, the first thing these people do is try to smear Xie Li?

She was determined not to let Xie Li take the blame.

“Hey Pei, tell me, did your mom ask my mom to help you see this woman for who she really is? Oh right, you even tipped me off so I could come over and stake out this place.”

After clarifying the cause and effect, Ming Xiaoxiao looked at Pei Si in disbelief. He was so cunning that he actually had someone follow her.

Although Jiang Yifan felt that there was nothing he and Ming Xiaoxiao couldn't talk about, he was still very unhappy with the Pei family's actions.

What does this mean? It's not enough that they've dealt with their family, now they want to mess with Ming Xiaoxiao too?

Do they really think they're some kind of king, able to run rampant and act lawlessly?

"Pei Si, what do you mean?" Jiang Yifan clenched his fists, his eyes almost spitting fire. "Aren't you disgusted by doing all this behind the scenes?"

Chen Lian rolled her eyes, thinking this guy was an idiot.

He used to seem quite shrewd, how did he get so thoroughly brainwashed by Ming Xiaoxiao? He's even more of a fool than Pei Si.

Pei Si: "Shut up!"

He had just fought with Jiang Yifan and had already held back. After all, Madam Pei was taking her anger out on the Jiang family, and he was indeed in the wrong. So, the fact that he let the other party hit him a few times at the beginning doesn't mean that his temper had improved.

"You should know best why I do all this, otherwise how would I know that you say one thing to my face and another behind my back?"

Pei Si looked at Ming Xiaoxiao with undisguised disgust in his eyes.

Ming Xiaoxiao panicked: "A-Si, it's not like that! Don't you know how I've treated you? I've tolerated your mother slapping me a few times, because she's your mother!"

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again. A girl's tears are only considered precious when they are just about to fall.

Crying too much is a bad thing and will only make others dislike you.

But she had no choice; if she didn't use tears as an offensive, she wouldn't be able to extricate herself.

“I don’t know what others have said to you, but I remember everything that has happened between us and everything you’ve done for me. I will remember it for the rest of my life.”

Jiang Yifan was a little confused. Didn't Ming Xiaoxiao say that Pei Si was just her good friend? Why was she crying like this?

The tears I shed in front of him just now suddenly seemed less unique, as if they had lost their value.

Pei Si: "You said I'm the most important person in your life, no less important than your grandmother, far more important than your life itself. Is all of that just talk?"

Ming Xiaoxiao forced a denial, "No, that's not it." She couldn't bear to look at Jiang Yifan anymore.

Pei Si said expressionlessly, "Oh, but you just said he's the most important person in your life."

Ming Xiaoxiao's scalp was about to explode. She just wanted to keep Jiang Yifan hanging, and because she hadn't given a clear answer to Jiang Yifan's confession, she dared to say that sentence to appease him.

But how could she tell Pei Si that what she told him was true, and what she told Jiang Yifan was false?

After observing the gossip for a while, Chen Lian finally understood Pei Si's intentions.

"You mean—she's two-timing?" That's outrageous! Doesn't this woman usually act like she's the epitome of justice?

It was as if she was always so upright and kind, while everyone else's breath was filthy and disgusting.

She pondered it for a moment and finally realized what was strange about the conversation between the two of them.

"Weren't you two already together? The things Ming Xiaoxiao just said to Jiang Yifan sounded like she was looking for a backup plan!"
