Xia Chenghai suddenly exerted force and kicked the man hard to the ground.
Bai Fangzhen screamed. She didn't expect Xia Chenghai to dare to attack her again and again without considering her feelings at all.
Xia Chenghai was furious. "Haha, I really underestimated you. You're still so eloquent even now. Do you know how Yun Xi won? The video was released, and the judge is already holding a trial. Just expect to be embroiled in a lawsuit. Believe me, Yun Xi won't let you go."
This time, Bai Fangzhen fell to the ground and did not get up.
After Xia Chenghai said those words, he turned around angrily and went upstairs. After a while, he heard a loud bang of a door slamming from the second floor.
Bai Fangzhen's fallen body trembled uncontrollably until the living room became quiet. Bai Fangzhen's hands, which were supporting the ground, slowly clenched into fists. She had a heart full of hatred but had nowhere to vent it. It was not until her nails pierced her palms and the slight pain allowed her to regain some sanity.
Thinking about what Xia Chenghai just said, the surveillance video from five years ago was taken out and released?
Impossible, she watched it carefully at that time, and there was no surveillance video around.
She didn't believe it, so Bai Fangzhen got up, crawled to the coffee table in the living room, reached the phone, and quickly dialed a number.
She needed to know the specific details of what happened in court. She didn't believe that Xia Yunxi was so lucky, so she really took out the surveillance video.
Even if it was filmed, it has been five years since then. It is impossible for any evidence to remain.
So that's fake, it must be fake.
right.
And dozens of kilometers away from the Xia family, in the Zhao family villa.
"Oh my God, I thought he was so great, but it turns out he is so sinister and vicious behind the scenes. You really can't just judge people by their appearance, who knows what they are like behind the scenes? Now look what's happening. You only know the face of a person but not his heart. He even brought back a jinx. I don't know how he will harm his family." Zhao Rui's mother, Mother Zhao, started yelling and making indirect accusations as soon as she entered the door.
At this time, Zhao's father came down from upstairs, heard her voice, and asked, "Who are you talking about?"
"Old Zhao, guess where I went?" As soon as Zhao's father came down, Zhao's mother immediately asked excitedly.
"Didn't you say you were going shopping with your bestie?" said Father Zhao.
Zhao's mother waved her hand. "No, we were planning to go shopping together, but on the way, we heard that the case had gone to court, and it was open to the public. So we went to join in the fun, and guess what, my God, it completely blew my mind."
Father Zhao came downstairs and glanced at her sideways: "Which case?"
Mother Zhao pouted, and Father Zhao looked in the direction she indicated.
His daughter-in-law, Xia Wei, was half-sitting in the corner with a bunch of scattered bouquets on her back.
Xia Wei picked out the flowers one by one and was responsible for trimming them.
She seemed not to hear the conversation between Zhao's father and mother, and just quietly did her own thing.
Zhao's mother had already taken Zhao's father's hand and walked over to the sofa. She didn't hide her voice, even deliberately raising it aloud, saying, "Guess what? Those gossips that have been making a big splash online lately are really fabricated. That person named Xia Yunxi won the case."
Xia Wei's hand that was arranging the bouquet suddenly stopped, and Zhao's mother's voice in her ear was already explaining what she saw in court.
"Xia Yunxi's lawyer released a video, and guess what it was? It was a surveillance video. Bai Fangzhen actually drugged her stepdaughter and gave her to an old man who was clearly several decades older than the girl."
Xia Wei's hand trembled, and a sharp thorn from the rose pierced her index finger.
Blood immediately oozed out of her finger. Xia Wei panicked, but not because of the wound on her finger. She looked up in shock.
Father Zhao asked in surprise, "No way? Is there really a surveillance video?"
"That's right. It's the hotel's surveillance video from five years ago. I think Bai Fangzhen is in trouble this time. You see, there were many media present at the scene. If not tomorrow, everything will be made public." Zhao's mother said.
Father Zhao changed his sitting position and asked, "How could you go to a place like that when you are fine?"
"Oh, isn't this just joining in the fun? And this is the first time I've learned that court sessions are open to the public. Anyone can go and observe. How would I have known so much if I hadn't been there? And with people these days, you really can't rely on their conscience, and you can't expect too much from them. Otherwise, they'll be setting you up for a loop without you even realizing it."
"Alright, alright, why are you saying this? You'd better stay away from those fun things in the future." Father Zhao said unhappily.
After saying that, he stood up and left.
Mother Zhao yelled, "Didn't I just come back after reading it and rush to share it with you? What's wrong with me?"
It's really a bad situation for both sides!
However, knowing Bai Fangzhen's true character was not a complete loss.
At least next time when Zhao's mother finds out, she has to be on guard and not just accept whatever the other party says.
There is another point that has always been a thorn in Zhao's mother's heart. It is the video that was released at Xia Wei and Zhao Rui's engagement party. Now Zhao's mother has enough confidence and feels that the video on the headlines is very likely to be true.
Xia Wei is a woman who must not be underestimated. She is just like her mother, very coquettish. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to catch Zhao Rui and keep pestering him for so many years.
Although she hated the situation in her heart, Zhao's mother would not bring the matter to light, let alone quarrel with Xia Wei at home.
But his expression still looked somewhat ugly.
Mother Zhao left the living room. Xia Wei clenched her hands tightly together, trying to suppress the emotions churning in her heart.
He took several deep breaths, and then calmly re-arranged the bouquet as if nothing had happened.
Zhao's mother was born into a wealthy family, so she attached great importance to the etiquette of the upper class. Xia Wei had been married into the Zhao family for so long that she had long lost her initial arrogance and charm.
The whole person seemed to be inspired, very calm, and every move was elegant and calm.
This also proves the saying that those who keep company with vermilion become redder, and those who keep company with ink become blacker.
When I was with Bai Fangzhen, all I thought about all day was how to capture a man's heart and how to act to show my best side.
Now that I am married, my mentality has been affected. I am no longer as naive as I was at the beginning. Instead, I have calmed down and seriously learned things that I don’t have.
But no one knows what she is thinking in her heart.

Li Hanting said he wanted to come back for dinner, so Xia Yunxi really prepared a large table carefully.
In fact, after so many years abroad, she hardly remembers the recipes of some S country dishes.
But it’s okay, there are universal online tutorials. You can just search online for anything and make it.
