Chapter 1142 Admiring Yao Bo
The butler turned to leave, and Yao An and Yao Hong tried to stop him.
Wang Jiayi was finally scared, and immediately raised her head and said in a low voice, "Don't report to the authorities, I'll talk, I'll talk."
"Speak," Madam Yao said angrily.
Wang Jiayi raised her head, glanced at Yao Bo, and looked pitiful, with a delicate and endearing expression.
However, the man in front of her remained unmoved, even looking at her with some disgust.
Yao Bo was unaware of Wang Jiayi's thoughts at first; it was only after Ying Xi spoke that he realized what was going on.
Following Shu Yu's plan, he first woke up Kang Shi, who was still sleeping, so that she wouldn't be startled by the noise outside.
Even so, they were still furious when they heard that Wang Jiayi was right outside their courtyard.
Fortunately, the couple trusted each other and, after discussing it, proceeded according to the plan.
Yao Bo had only been with Madam Kang for a short while when he returned and indeed saw Wang Jiayi secretly entering his room and putting drugs in his tea.
Kang Shi actually drank more of the tea; after she became pregnant, she often felt thirsty.
If she comes back from outside soon, she's the most likely person to drink water.
Kang was pregnant and shouldn't have taken any medicine, let alone tea laced with this stuff.
At that time, both Kang and the child may be in trouble.
Thinking of this, Yao Bo felt that Wang Jiayi was vicious, cold-blooded and ruthless. How could he still feel that she was pitiful?
Wang Jiayi's attempts to appear pitiful were to no avail; Madam Yao, standing nearby, was already urging her, "Speak quickly."
Shu Yu added, "I advise you to tell the truth. If there's anything unreasonable or suspicious, then we'll have no choice but to hand you over to the authorities. We might not be able to find out, but the yamen can certainly find out through torture."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jiayi suddenly raised her head and glared at her resentfully.
She had been crying and protesting her innocence, clearly trying to find a plausible excuse to get away with it.
But after Shu Yu said that, she didn't dare to take any chances anymore.
He took a deep breath, lowered his head, and began to speak, “Madam, I was bewitched and acted on impulse. I... when I first saw Young Master Yao Bo, I... I admired him.”
Upon hearing this, everyone present, except for Shu Yukang and Yao Bo, was stunned and stood there in astonishment.
Especially Yao An and Yao Hong, they both looked at Wang Jiayi as if they didn't recognize her at all.
A moment later, Yao Hong suddenly screamed, "Sister Jiayi, what are you saying? You, you like my brother, didn't you? When did you start liking cousin Yao Bo?"
Wang Jiayi kept her head down and said softly, "I used to think that I liked my cousin. He treated me well, and I thought that I could only repay his kindness by marrying him in this life. But since I came to the capital and met Young Master Yao Bo, I have realized what it means to like someone. I also realized that my feelings for my cousin are just like those for a brother."
Shu Yu almost burst out laughing; that was such a familiar, innocent-looking confession from a naive girl.
She couldn't help but look at Yao An, her backup boyfriend.
Yao An's face flushed red. She had always thought that Wang Jiayi couldn't live without him. Even though he had done worse things before, Wang Jiayi had never abandoned him.
Therefore, he could flirt with other women whenever he wanted, without worrying at all that Wang Jiayi would fall for someone else.
Who knows...
