"Are you confused?" Wen Xi sneered.
"That's right," Yuan Zhi said with a smile, suppressing her anger at being hung up. "A girl as good as you, Xiaoxi, is hard to find even with a lantern. I was so confused back then! You don't know, when the misunderstanding was resolved, I really regretted it to bits. I haven't had a good night's sleep in the past few months. I hope you can forgive my impulsiveness at that time! Our two families know each other well, so why should we become so estranged because of a misunderstanding? It's just a joke to the people who instigated it behind the scenes."
"Auntie, you sound nice now, but that wasn't what you said back then. I still remember you saying that regardless of whether it was a misunderstanding or not, the marriage had to be called off. You were perfectly clear-headed back then, how could you have been sober? Didn't you already find a new partner for your son?"
"This... is not the case, I..."
"Auntie, truth will come to light sooner or later. What? Are you still trying to hide this? I really doubt the sincerity of your apology."
Seeing that the matter was exposed, Yuan Zhi made up his mind and took everything on himself.
"Okay, Xiaoxi, I admit that there was such a thing as the Liu family, but it was all my idea. Xiaoxi, you are still young and don't know how cruel the competition in society is. Your Uncle Wang has been in poor health these past few years, and it's really not easy for me, a woman, to support the company. The situation has been particularly bad in the past two years, so I..."
Yuan Zhi wiped her tears with a tissue as she spoke.
"Don't blame Wen Yue. I forced him to do this. He suffered a lot for the sake of his family. As for the matter with your cousin, he was just soft-hearted for a moment. He was afraid that your cousin would do something extreme if he refused, so he had no choice but to do it... In fact, you are the only person he truly cares about!"
Wen Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes.
No wonder Wang Tai was so fooled around. This woman is really good at confusing right and wrong.
Her son was clearly a fickle scumbag, yet in her mouth he became innocent.
This level of shamelessness makes her worthy of being a scumbag’s mother.
Seeing Wen Xi remained silent, Yuan Zhi thought she was persuaded. She felt delighted and continued to persuade her, "Xiao Xi, it's not just Wen Yue. Your Uncle Wang and I also like you very much. Auntie has figured it out now. Power or no power is nothing compared to sincerity. As long as Wen Yue is well, it's only a matter of time before he can revive the company. You know he was recommended to X University a long time ago, so he must have a bright future."
Yuan Zhi talked for a long time but Wen Xi didn't respond at all, so she had to poke her husband beside her.
"Your aunt is right, Xiaoxi," Wang Tai paused and said, "You and Yue'er grew up together. The bond you share is unmatched. Uncle also implores you to give him another chance. Don't worry, if he dares to do anything to let you down again, I will be the first one to not forgive him!"
"I'm sorry, Uncle Wang," Wen Xi said leisurely after taking a sip of juice, "If he's unfaithful once, I won't trust him a hundred times. I can't trust him anymore."
"You, why are you so stubborn?" Yuan Zhi was furious. "We, as your elders, have come to apologize to you in person, and you're still putting on airs in front of us?"
"If all you have to do after making a mistake is apologize, then what are the police and prisons for?"
"you!"
Yuan Zhi was left staring blankly.
Seeing Wen Xi's energetic look, I felt so angry.
It was clearly this damn girl who was broken off!
I've lost all my face!
Shouldn't I happily walk down the stairs when I came to win back this damn girl?
How dare you act so arrogantly in front of her?
