Zhou Dashu and Li Ermei never expected that Fang Yan would guess all their little schemes.
They were stunned on the spot.
They couldn't understand how Fang Yan, who used to be not very bright, had become so smart after the family split up.
"Anyway... no matter what, if you want to hear that secret from us, you have to give us a hundred dollars."
Li Ermei, with her neck stiff, made a forceful demand.
Fang Yan's cold smile hadn't faded yet. "Then you'd better watch your mouths and make sure they don't come out."
After all, we can't just shut our ears. If you can't control your mouths and start talking, it's not our fault.
"You're overthinking it!" Li Ermei glared at Fang Yan. "If you don't give us the money, we won't say another word!"
In her heart, she still somewhat blamed Fang Yan for Zhang Congming's death.
She had thought countless times what if she had carried Zhang Congming to Fang Yan's doorstep that night?
Without saying a word, Fang Yan took Qi Bei and accompanied her to the village chief to borrow a bicycle.
Perhaps her son wouldn't have died.
Therefore, she truly hated Fang Yan!
The less capable a person is, the more they complain about everything and everyone else when things go wrong, but they never blame themselves.
Fang Yan stared at them without moving until they felt uneasy under her gaze. Then she slowly smirked, "One day, you were drinking with Zhang Laowu, and he got really drunk and said he didn't die of natural causes, right?"
Zhou Dashu was so shocked that his eyes widened in disbelief!
He was shocked!
So shocked he couldn't control his mouth and blurted out, "How did you know?!"
Fang Yan smiled and said, "I can tell what you're thinking just by looking into your eyes."
It seems I guessed right.
You're kidding me!
Li Ermei was also surprised, but her shock was far less intense than Zhou Dashu's.
"Bang bang bang..."
She reached out and slapped Zhou Dashu a few times in an annoyed tone, "Why can't you control your mouth?"
"No, how could I not care..."
Oh, now that we've come to this point, Zhou Dashu, whose mind is much slower than others, finally realized that his words just now indirectly confirmed that what Fang Yan said was exactly what they originally wanted to say.
Zhou Dashu then glared angrily at Fang Yan, "You probably don't even believe this nonsense yourself, do you?"
"Don't believe me?"
Fang Yan completely ignored their anger and continued to stare at them.
Once again, she made them feel uneasy under her gaze, unsure of where to look, before slowly speaking again, "The next day, when Zhang Laowu sobered up, he wasn't sure if he had said anything he shouldn't have while drunk the night before."
She had only spoken half of her sentence when she saw Zhou Dashu's face turn deathly pale at a visible speed.
Even Li Ermei's mouth slowly opened wide, unable to close.
As Fang Yan spoke, she observed their expressions. Seeing their reactions, she knew she had guessed correctly again.
Struggling to suppress the urge to smile, she continued, "So, he called you over."
Fang Yanyu pointed her finger at Zhou Dashu and asked, "Tell me, what did he say last night?"
Zhou Dashu's face was beyond pale; under the blazing sun, he felt utterly terrified!
Fang Yan continued, "In order to show Zhang Laowu that you are honest and upright, and also hoping that Zhang Laowu would make your life at home a little easier in the future because you are so honest, you repeated everything he said last night without reservation."
"No! You must have been eavesdropping on our conversation!"
Zhou Dashu couldn't help but shout again.
Fang Yan reminded him, "If I'm not mistaken, I wasn't married to Zhang Jizhou when you two were drinking."
That's really true!
So here's the question: since Fang Yan hadn't married into the Zhang family yet, how did he know about this?
Zhou Dashu would swear on his life that, apart from whispering about it to his wife, he had never uttered a single word about it to anyone else!
Moreover, he didn't even go into this much detail when he told his wife.
Fang Yan's description was exactly the same as what happened that night when he drank with Zhang Laowu, and the next day when Zhang Laowu came to find him!
"My goodness!" Zhou Dashu was so frightened that he didn't dare to look at Fang Yan anymore. He turned around in a flash, his back to Fang Yan. "You really can read people's minds?"
Upon hearing the words "reading people's hearts," Li Ermei, who was stunned, quickly turned around, just like Zhou Dashu.
This jerk really knows how to read people's minds?
Wouldn't that be a monster?
It's still terrifying to think about.
Li Ermei took off running with a "thump thump thump".
The wife runs away, the husband follows.
As soon as Zhou Dashu saw his wife run away, he immediately ran after her without saying a word.
Fang Yan's lips twitched: ...
After thinking about it, she still kindly called out to them, "If you want to live, you'd better stop, otherwise, your lives are in danger."
Because suing Zhang Laowu for causing their son's death might implicate them, Zhou Dashu and Li Ermei decided not to sue Zhang Laowu.
This shows just how cowardly these two are.
Almost as soon as Fang Yan finished speaking, they stopped in their tracks.
However, still shaken, they dared not turn around, and with their backs to Fang Yan, they timidly asked, "What...what do you want to do?"
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to remind you to think about how to explain yourself before you go back, who you met and what you said to each other during your long trip."
If you answer honestly again this time, then congratulations! Perhaps soon your whole family will be able to reunite.
After saying that, Fang Yan was too lazy to look at their cowardly appearance anymore. "Alright, I've said my piece. You guys better run."
Zhou Dashu and Li Ermei were really obedient this time. As soon as Fang Yan gave the order, they ran away immediately.
"Tch, if you ask me, you don't need to remind them. Let the whole family fight like dogs!"
Aunt De watched Zhou Dashu and Li Ermei flee in panic and said through gritted teeth.
"It's alright. Heaven cherishes life, so we're just doing our duty to give them a heads-up. As for what happens after they go back, that's their fate."
Fang Yan said nonchalantly.
She really disliked Zhou Dashu and Li Ermei, but she never imagined that they would foolishly perish at the hands of Zhang Laowu.
In the blink of an eye, this scumbag couple had vanished without a trace.
"Third brother's wife, how did you know about Zhang Laowu and Zhou Dashu's affair?"
