Xiao Yunying pressed the axe against He Hua's neck. Since He Hua had already spoken, she might as well get to the bottom of it all at once.
"So, the reason you and Liu Ge have been giving me trouble these past few days is because of this?"
He Hua now clearly knew that Xiao Yunying was truly capable of cutting her own flesh, and answered decisively, "Yes."
With this incident as a starting point, Xiao Yunying understood many questions that she had previously been unable to answer:
"That day, when Brother Lin Shi took Luo Li home, you came to my house to make a scene under the pretext of your son. You were worried that I would tell Brother Lin Shi about your affair with Liu Ge, right? You were trying to smear us and make us keep our distance, right?"
"That's right."
"Liu Ge is bothering me because he wants to know if I recognized you, right?"
When Liu Ge was mentioned, He Hua hesitated for a moment. Xiao Yunying pressed the axe down hard, and He Hua panicked, saying things she should and shouldn't have said.
“At first, my cousin approached you to find out if you recognized us, but when he saw that you brought back a basket of snow fungus, he got an idea. He said he would find a way to get you to be with him so that you wouldn’t tell anyone about us, and he could get the money from selling the snow fungus.”
As she spoke, the fear in He Hua's eyes lessened considerably, turning into resentment and jealousy.
Xiao Yunying was utterly speechless at the bizarre thought processes of these two. Now she understood why He Hua had reacted so strongly by the well yesterday—she was jealous.
"I never imagined Liu Ge was so ugly, yet he has such high aspirations. I feel disgusted just looking at his pretentious and greasy appearance. Only you would treat him like a treasure."
Catching the fleeting anger in He Hua's eyes, Xiao Yunying decided to add fuel to the fire:
"To tell you the truth, I have damaged my eyes from doing embroidery for a long time and have developed an eye disease. I can't see people clearly at a distance. In addition, it was drizzling that day and the cave was dark. I only saw two naked bodies entangled together before I hurriedly ran away."
"You two aren't ashamed, but I'm disgusted and afraid of getting a sty. I don't have the time to carefully check who it is. Now everyone knows, it's all your own doing."
He Hua was stunned: "What did you say? You didn't recognize us?"
Xiao Yunying scoffed: "That's right. If I had recognized you, I would have said so when you first came to my house and made a scene. You don't expect me to keep such a dirty secret for someone I hate, do you?"
He Hua couldn't accept this answer: "How could this be... how could this happen?"
Xiao Yunying's gaze suddenly turned cold. She turned the axe around and smashed it with the back of the blade into He Hua's mouth.
He Hua groaned, turned her head and spat out a mouthful of blood, which contained two and a half teeth.
He Hua pointed a trembling finger at Xiao Yunying: "My teeth, you...you..."
Xiao Yunying used her axe to block her hand: "I warned you repeatedly that if you dared to act recklessly in front of me and spread lies about me again, I would cut off your tongue. Not only did you not take it to heart, but you even had thoughts of killing me. Are you really not afraid of my revenge?"
As Xiao Yunying spoke, she squatted down and used the axe to scrape the blood-stained teeth on the ground:
"If I wanted to cut off your tongue, I'd have to break all four of your limbs and dislocate your jaw first. After all, you wouldn't just stick out your tongue and let me chop it off, right? But for Brother Lin Shi's sake, I've decided to forgive you one last time and only knock out a few of your teeth to teach you a lesson. Do you agree?"
He Hua nodded quickly. How could she dare to disagree? Her teeth were already gone, and if she disagreed, she would lose her tongue, and also her limbs and chin.
Xiao Yunying is so crazy, the Lin family couldn't protect her before, and now that her affair with her cousin has been exposed, they're even less likely to protect her.
"Good girl."
Xiao Yunying smiled slightly. If it weren't for the fact that her face was pale and there were two dried bloodstains on her cheek, she would look as kind as a mother praising her child.
Xiao Yunying was clearly smiling, but the coldness in her eyes as she looked at He Hua was bone-chilling, which made He Hua feel even more terrified than when she wasn't smiling. She covered her mouth and trembled.
