"Which ear did you hear me cursing you with? Or are you just eager to be a bird? I'm really surprised! When you encounter filthy things like you, can't you just shut up for once?"
Ye Yun picked up the fire poker and threw it, the sparks almost hitting Gu Yingying's face.
Gu Yingying was so frightened that she jumped up. Her face was flushed with anger, and she pointed a trembling finger at Ye Yun, saying, "You...you've gone too far!"
"I can't keep up with you~"
Ye Yun replied lazily and continued to tend the fire.
"Coming to someone else's house to show off your power, I don't know who's being unreasonable. If I were Qin Zheng, I would definitely look down on you too!"
Gu Yingying blushed instantly, "Ye Yun, don't go too far!"
"That's all you know?" Ye Yun gave her a cool look. "You really are a young lady; you can't even argue with someone?"
Gu Yingying stared wide-eyed in disbelief, as if she was about to vomit blood.
She couldn't find the right words to retort, her face flushed with anger, and after a long while she finally managed to squeeze out, "Don't be so smug! You won't be smug for long! Once Brother Qin Zheng finishes this mission and moves away, he'll throw you into the mountains, and then we'll see how smug you'll be!"
Ye Yun scoffed dismissively.
"You found out again?" she asked lazily and nonchalantly.
Gu Yingying was furious and continued, "Stop daydreaming! Qin Zheng and you are destined to be different. Even if his marriage partner isn't me, it shouldn't be a country bumpkin like you who can't do anything! Let me tell you, there are plenty of people who are jealous of Qin Zheng!"
Ye Yun's lips twitched. "So?"
"You, you..."
Gu Yingying blushed and wanted to argue with her, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't think of anything more to say.
She stomped her foot, and in a fit of despair, declared, "Anyway! Brother Qin Zheng will leave you sooner or later!"
"What are you saying, you little brat!"
Qin Xiang'e, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't stand it anymore. She angrily slammed her hand on the chopping board and said with dissatisfaction, "Our Zhengzi and his wife are doing just fine. They just got married and are hoping for a long and happy marriage! You look like a nice person, but why do you speak so viciously? What a waste of your talent!"
*Snap!* The old woman sunbathing suddenly exerted her strength, and the bamboo pole in her hand snapped in two!
Gu Yingying gasped in disbelief upon seeing this, pointing her finger at him and saying, "You...you actually called me vicious?"
"If it wasn't you, who else could it be but my own aunt?" Qin Xiang'e gave her a reproachful look.
Qin Xiang'e really didn't want to pay any more attention to Gu Yingying. She took the fire poker from Ye Yun and comforted her, "His wife, don't listen to her nonsense. Zhengzi isn't the kind of person who would betray his promise. Once you're his wife, you'll be his wife for life!"
Ye Yun smiled and said, "Aunt, I know."
She believed in Qin Zheng's character, which was why she had the confidence to retort to Gu Yingying.
Seeing Qin Xiang'e siding with Ye Yun, Gu Yingying stomped her feet in anger, but she couldn't argue with Qin Zheng's aunt. So she groaned and sat heavily back down on the stone bench with her arms crossed.
Ye Yun glanced at the closed door of the main room.
She knew this was a great opportunity for Qin Zheng, but the greater the opportunity, the greater the danger. The rewards were proportional to the sacrifices, and Qin Zheng would definitely get hurt, big or small. She didn't want Qin Zheng to take the risk.
But she also knew that Qin Zheng had never belonged to her alone.
Squeak—
Just then, the door to the main room was suddenly pushed open, and Qin Zheng walked out of the main room talking with the others...
