Chapter 74: Proving One's Innocence



Wei Che frowned and said nothing. His disgust towards Su Huaiyue deepened again. He thought that since he had done such a bad thing, he should not blame others for bullying her.

In full view of the public, he remained silent.

Seeing Su Huaiyue being bullied so badly, Wei Ersao felt very happy.

As Su Huaiyue walked, she felt a little thirsty. While no one was paying attention to her, she secretly took out some watermelon juice from the space and drank a few refreshing sips.

Only then did she feel her throat feel better and her mind gradually became clearer.

Walking behind, strolling like a leisurely stroll in the garden.

Su Huaiyue knew that the matter of being framed would not end so easily.

Wang Laosan must have had some ulterior motive and wanted to harm her. There might be a bigger conspiracy hidden behind this.

No matter what, she must uncover the truth and clear her name.

After walking for a long time, everyone finally started to complain.

Lord Li gave an order and told everyone to rest on the spot.

This order was like a sweet rain after a long drought. Everyone collapsed and sat down almost at the same time, complaining about how difficult the journey was today.

Su Huaiyue took the opportunity to lean against a dead tree, closed his eyes and thought.

The feeling of injustice in her heart was still burning, and she had to take this opportunity to prove her innocence.

Memories of the morning of the incident flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope, and she quickly fixed her gaze on Wei Ersao and Wang Laosan.

These two people usually have a lot of grievances against him, and it is very likely that they are in cahoots with each other.

Of course this was just a guess, and she wasn't sure.

Her eyes inadvertently swept over her second sister-in-law who was sitting not far away. She saw her chatting and laughing with several women in groups of three or five, looking relaxed and at ease.

Mrs. Wei Er seemed to notice that Su Huaiyue was looking at her, and she also gave him a disdainful look, looking extremely proud.

Su Huaiyue turned to look at Wang Laosan on the other side. He was sitting alone with a gloomy face.

Even though everyone knows that he is hostile to the Wei family, it seems a little incredible that his second sister-in-law would cooperate with him.

No matter how foolish Wei Ersao was, she would not join forces with the family's enemies to kill her.

From another perspective, if they really are in collusion, then there must be a deeper conspiracy behind Wang Laosan.

The whispers of the people around him came into his ears. Su Huaiyue suppressed the myriad thoughts in his mind and tried to concentrate on capturing useful information from these fragmentary words.

"Su Huaiyue was the calmest along the way. I really don't know what she was thinking."

"That's right, she acts as if nothing happened to her."

These words made Su Huaiyue's heart tighten. She knew that she had to calm down at this time and not let these gossips disturb her thinking.

However, only by keeping your footing in such a situation can you buy yourself more time and space to turn the situation around.

"Sister-in-law, drink some water."

Wei Yunrou quietly handed over a small kettle from behind, her voice so low that only the two of them could hear it.

Su Huaiyue came back to her senses and nodded to the kind sister-in-law: "Thank you, Yunrou."

Wei Yunrou still looked at Su Huaiyue worriedly, but Wei Che next to her remained indifferent and watched from the sidelines. Only when he saw Su Huaiyue did there was a momentary fluctuation in his eyes.

Su Huaiyue thought about it and came up with a bold plan in his mind.

She quietly took out a small jelly from the space, thinking that this was the key to solving the current dilemma.

She knew that in the eyes of the young master of the Zheng family, the jelly was a delicacy.

She found an opportunity, quietly approached Master Zheng, and handed him the jelly.

"Sir, do you want to eat some jelly? But I need your help with something."

Su Huaiyue said this in a tone of voice that pretended to be relaxed, with a look of determination in his eyes.

Young Master Zheng glanced at the crystal clear jelly in his palm, as if a whole new world had opened up in an instant.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he nodded: "Thank you, sister. What can I do for you?"

Su Huaiyue lowered her voice and pretended to be mysterious, "Go and help me deliver letters to Wang Laosan and Wei Ersao respectively, saying that they want to meet him."

As Master Zheng listened, he gradually smiled and couldn't let go of the jelly in his hand.

He agreed to Su Huaiyue's request.

Wang Laosan and Wei Ersao met at an agreed place without any suspicion of each other.

Wang Laosan arrived first. He rubbed his hands together and became a little impatient.

Soon, Wei Ersao came back late with a somewhat lazy step.

When she saw Wang Laosan, a sharp gleam of hawk-like brilliance flashed in her eyes, but a friendly smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"I never thought that there would be such a day that I could work with you, Wang Laosan."

She said half-jokingly, with a hint of approval in her eyes, "Third brother, you are really capable. With such a simple play, you made Su Huaiyue lose face."

When Wang Laosan heard this, he puffed out his chest and a look of pride appeared on his face.

"Mrs. Wei, you're too kind. These are just some small tricks."

He waved his hand, his tone faintly revealing the pride of success. "But you, those two words really pissed Su Huaiyue off to death. It's so satisfying to hear them."

The two smiled at each other, and the glances they exchanged seemed to show that they knew each other well.

However, they didn't know that Su Huaiyue had already quietly laid out the next step of the game.

In the distance, Su Huaiyue's eyes were as sharp as torches and his heart was as calm as water.

Su Huaiyue walked out from behind the tree, and a whirlwind rose up. Her figure approached slowly like a dancer with ease.

Wang Laosan and Wei Ersao were stunned for a moment and looked back at the same time.

She smiled indifferently, her eyes wandering over them, yet seemed to be able to penetrate their hearts.

"I didn't expect it was really you."

Her voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it gave people a chill.

Mrs. Wei's heart tightened, her eyes flickering, "Su Huaiyue, why are you here?"

Wang Laosan didn't care at all. Instead, he showed a sarcastic smile and said, "I admire you for thinking it was us."

Su Huaiyue sighed softly, walked a few steps to them, and lingered on Wei Ersao's face for a moment. She said coldly, "I want to know, Ersao, how have I wronged you that you've gone to such great lengths to scheme against me?"

Mrs. Wei raised her chin abruptly, her tone carrying a hint of sharp sarcasm, "Sorry? Su Huaiyue, what are you so proud of? You act so high and mighty wherever you go. I really can't stand it!"

After hearing this, Su Huaiyue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, with a smile without a trace of warmth, "I see, it seems that I was just being sentimental."

Wang Laosan stood aside and watched, raising his eyebrows. "Su Huaiyue, whether it's us or not, you can't explain it now even if you have ten thousand mouths. Just bear the stigma of a slut and be despised by others."

Su Huaiyue didn't say anything. She just looked at Wang Laosan quietly, as if she was examining some insignificant existence.

Seeing this, Wei Ersao's eyes flashed with anxiety and uneasiness, and then she quickly turned away.

A brief silence spread between the three of them, like an invisible net.
