That's why he shifted his focus and started targeting Shen Jiaojiao. He never expected that Wen Xi would value Shen Jiaojiao so much.
After Wen Xi helped Shen Jiaojiao out of the courtyard, Gu Huai'an released Lu Xiaoyun, straightened his clothes, and went out. Lu Mingxiu and Li Jianguo also snorted at Lu Xiaoyun and went out as well.
Wen Xi helped Shen Jiaojiao to the front door. Jiang Yue was just opening the door when she saw this scene and asked worriedly, "Xiao Xi, what happened to Jiaojiao?"
"Open the door first, we'll talk when we get back." Wen Xi urged, frowning. She was furious. If she came back late today, Shen Jiaojiao's life would be ruined.
In her past life, only Shen Jiaojiao and Lu Xiaoyun knew about this matter. After Lu Xiaoyun returned to the city, only Shen Jiaojiao knew about it, so no one pointed fingers at her. But in this life, with Liang Zhaodi involved, who knows how Liang Zhaodi will cause trouble and ruin Shen Jiaojiao's reputation!
Wen Xi helped Shen Jiaojiao into the courtyard and arranged for her to sit down and rest. Wen Xi then went to the well, drew some water, and splashed it directly on Shen Jiaojiao to help her sober up.
Jiang Yue, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Shen Jiaojiao did indeed wake up, and she looked at Wen Xi with a blank expression, not knowing what had happened.
"Shen Jiaojiao, have I ever been lacking in food or drink for you? If you're so greedy, go to Liang Zhaodi's house for dinner and drinks."
"Do you know that a bed has been prepared in Liang Zhaodi's kitchen? If I don't go and bring you back today, Lu Xiaoyun will have sex with you tonight, and your life and everything you have will be ruined. Do you understand?"
"I warned you all long ago that Lu Xiaoyun is a scumbag, and Liang Zhaodi is no better. Who gave you the courage to believe them and even go to their house for dinner?"
Wen Xi clutched her chest, "You're driving me crazy! You're so infuriating! If you weren't my friends, I wouldn't care whether you lived or died. If I did, you'd complain that I was meddling, but if I didn't, you wouldn't even learn to think straight..."
Jiang Yue anxiously supported Wen Xi, asking, "Xiao Xi, what's wrong?"
"I'm fine, I was just angry at Shen Jiaojiao's stupidity. I never thought someone would willingly walk into the lion's den and be bullied." The root cause of this matter is still Shen Jiaojiao; she still doesn't have much of a sense of self-preservation. Hopefully, this incident will make her a little smarter!
Shen Jiaojiao snapped out of her daze, covered her face with her hands, and burst into tears of lingering fear. If it weren't for Enxi, she probably would have really...
Then Liang Zhaodi jumped out to catch them in the act of adultery, and she was branded with shame by the couple, destined to bear that infamy for the rest of her life. She might even face severe punishment...
“Xiaoxi, I’m sorry for making you worry.” Shen Jiaojiao sobbed, “On my way home from work, Liang Zhaodi suddenly jumped out and grabbed my arm, saying that her daughter hadn’t been named yet and asked me to help her choose a name. Then she invited me to stay for dinner at their house. I really didn’t expect them to have such a purpose…”
"I know I was wrong, I won't go to anyone's house again..."
"I'm so angry my heart hurts, I don't want to talk. I'm going back to my room to rest. Xiaoyue, can you take care of Jiaojiao?" The matter was over, the crisis was over, and Wenxi didn't want to dwell on it anymore. She waved her hand and went back to her room.
She specifically called Gu Huai'an and the other two today because she was afraid that Lu Xiaoyun and Liang Zhaodi would trap her together. Not only would they not be able to save Shen Jiaojiao, but she herself would probably also perish inside.
Back in her room, Wen Xi collapsed weakly onto the bed. She was furious with Shen Jiaojiao. Knowing full well who Lu Xiaoyun and Liang Zhaodi were, she still went to their house. Was she deliberately going into danger?
Shen Jiaojiao covered her face with her hands and wailed. It was so close! Just a hair's breadth away from ruining her life...
"Jiaojiao, go to your room and get a change of clothes. I'll go boil some water for a bath." Jiang Yue patted Shen Jiaojiao's shoulder and then turned to go to the kitchen.
Wenxi is genuinely good to them and truly cares about them. If it were someone else, they would probably only be thinking about seeing them suffer, so how could they possibly treat them like this?
Wen Xi thought about it and still felt that they couldn't just let it go like that. Even without evidence, they couldn't just let it go, otherwise who knew what Lu Xiaoyun and Liang Zhaodi would do!
Jiang Yue boiled the water and carried it to the bathroom. Then she called Shen Jiaojiao to take a bath. Shen Jiaojiao cried while taking a bath. She had angered and disappointed Wen Xi today. She didn't know if Wen Xi would forgive her.
She knew Lu Xiaoyun and Liang Zhaodi weren't good people, but she never imagined they could be this wicked—they actually tried to get her drunk, and then…
What she didn't expect was that Liang Zhaodi, as her daughter-in-law, would actually agree to her husband doing such a thing. How could there be a woman in the world who would willingly wear a green hat?
Did Liang Zhaodi profit from scheming against her? Otherwise, why would she sacrifice her husband?
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaojiao felt a chill rise from the soles of her feet, making her shudder. It seemed that she had underestimated the wickedness of human nature.
The next morning, Wen Xi got up to make breakfast and found Shen Jiaojiao in the kitchen. She asked worriedly, "Why are you up so early? Doesn't your head hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Shen Jiaojiao shook her head, then looked at Wen Xi sincerely and said, "Xiao Xi, you helped me last night, which is equivalent to saving my life. From now on, I will definitely follow your lead and listen to your orders for the rest of my life."
Wen Xi waved her hand dismissively, "No need, no need. I'm not helping you so you can thank me. I just hope you can all live well and be happy!"
"Xiaoxi, are you alright?" Shen Jiaojiao asked worriedly.
Wenxi said she was so angry her heart hurt, which means she was really furious.
"I rested for a night and I'm all better now," Wen Xi shook her head.
Afterwards, the two of them made breakfast together. Wenxi cooked pumpkin porridge. The white rice porridge mixed with golden pumpkin looked really beautiful and tempting.
Afterwards, Wenxi kneaded the dough and made several pancakes. The pancakes were stacked together on a plate, looking like a small hill.
It's okay if we can't finish our breakfast; we can save it for dinner. Wenxi plans to treat Donghua, Gu Huai'an, and the other two to dinner tonight. If Donghua hadn't tipped them off, Shen Jiaojiao would definitely have been in trouble last night.
After preparing breakfast, Wenxi handed the kitchen over to Shen Jiaojiao and went to Donghua's house to find Donghua. Although Donghua didn't have to work, she had to go to school, so she was already up.
