Ye Xuan took a deep breath and said hurriedly, "Aunt Qiao, Brother Chen, please think about it, I didn't lie, we used the same terms of address."
She was referring to Tang Yaoyao's way of addressing Master Xiao.
She swallowed hard, trying to suppress her fear, and said righteously, "They are having an affair. We didn't intend to harm Tang Yaoyao at first. It was because I saw them spending the night together and remembered what Yaoyao had said about Tang Yaoyao seducing Fourth Master that we did this."
She spoke with self-pity, her eyes brimming with tears: "I love Brother Chen so much, of course I can't allow him to have the stain of Tang Yaoyao on him, so that's why I did these things."
Fu Xiuchen asked in a low, cold voice, "So, I should thank you?"
“Brother Chen, I…”
"You say you love me, so what have you done for me? Have you helped my career, taken care of my parents, or been kind to me? No, your love is nothing but your own wishful thinking, forcibly imposed on me. Why should I satisfy you because of your love? And what right do you have to hurt others because of your imagined love?"
Every question he asked left her speechless.
Once again, silence fell.
At this moment, Fu Mengyao bit her lip and spoke up: "Mom, brothers, if you don't believe me, I can only prove myself and punish this woman who deceived my feelings in my own way. I know I did wrong, but..."
Qiao Yanzhi interrupted her, her voice extremely calm: "Your punishment is to kill her?"
Fu Mengyao suddenly felt a little flustered.
This tone proves that her mother is completely disappointed in her, and nothing she says will make a ripple.
“I don’t care what the relationship is between Tang Yaoyao and Han’er. You two have the same story: that night you saw her and Han’er entangled and wanted to teach her a lesson. It was also the night I happened to be away from the hospital. But what I found out was that you two plotted to harm Tang Yaoyao before that night. That night cannot be your excuse.”
After being exposed on the spot, Ye Xuan's face grew even paler, and she trembled even more violently.
Qiao Yanzhi sneered: "When I was your age, I went through countless life-and-death situations. You think you can fool me with your acting? Even if Tang Yaoyao really harmed both of my sons at the same time, it's not your place to teach her a lesson, let alone have the right to take her life."
Hearing this, Fu Mengyao explained softly, "Mom, I knew about her and Fourth Brother's affair a long time ago. You just didn't believe me. I didn't intend to kill her. I was careful with the amount of medicine I added. She won't die. Mom, I just wanted you to believe me through this incident. And just now, didn't Fourth Brother and Tang Yaoyao also give themselves away?"
Tang Yaoyao listened quietly and suddenly felt that her reasoning seemed to hold water and that the logic was sound.
really.
The rich young lady raised by Qiao Yanzhi is different; she always has a way of turning the tide.
Upon hearing this, a clear change occurred after the two testimonies were combined.
Ye Xuan genuinely intended to kill her, while Fu Mengyao was merely a good daughter who painstakingly tried to make her mother see her true intentions.
Ye Xuan found a reason to excuse herself and continued to agree: "Aunt Qiao, blame yourself. She had Brother Chen but still seduced Master Xiao."
Normally, Xiao Jinhan would have crippled the person who hurt her, but this matter involved her mother and older brother.
He turned around and looked at Tang Yaoyao.
She nodded slightly, and their eyes met in a tacit understanding.
Then, he looked away and, under everyone's gaze, took her hand tightly, their fingers intertwined.
The next sentence sent a shockwave through everyone: "Sixteen is my fiancée."
