Zhong Yan remained calm. It could be said that she was not surprised at all by his reaction, nor did she back down in the slightest. This woman's hostility towards her was almost ingrained in her bones. Was she not allowed to fight back?
That's ridiculous!
Since she cares about Jiang Xiaochen, it would be best to let him step in.
Seeing that he didn't speak, she couldn't help but frown.
"Hey! What do you mean by this? You're not helping me!"
"You wretched woman, your brother Xiaochen will not help you..."
"Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully you. Fang Mengxue, will you leave on your own, or should I have someone take you away?" Jiang Xiaochen lost his patience and said coldly, "We've known each other for many years, we can't be completely without any affection..."
"Waaah..." Fang Mengxue finally couldn't hold back and burst into tears in public. How could she bear such humiliation! Her Xiaochen brother should have belonged to him alone.
Jiang Xiaochen didn't even glance at her, instead rubbing his nose sheepishly: "I swear, I have absolutely nothing to do with her!"
Zhong Yan snorted softly, her gaze sweeping over him from head to toe. Then, with a half-smile, she said, "What, you're not related anymore? We didn't know each other at first, and now we've known each other for years. Jiang Xiaochen, tell me, which of your words are true and which are false?"
Jiang Xiaochen choked for a moment, finally understanding what it meant to lift a stone only to drop it on one's own foot! The way she was acting now clearly showed that she was quite bothered by this matter, and was almost bursting with anger.
"What, are you deliberately trying to make me jealous by putting me and her together?"
"How could that be?" Jiang Xiaochen subconsciously grabbed her hand, unwilling to let her go: "Zhong Yan, listen to me, how could I make you jealous! Even if I hurt everyone else, I wouldn't bear to hurt you."
"Is that so?" Zhong Yan said softly, still feeling that he couldn't believe his words: "Jiang Xiaochen, this is the last time! If another sister or younger sister pops up next time, I won't be as easy to talk to as I am now."
"Absolutely not!" Jiang Xiaochen immediately assured him, while also making a plan in his mind. When he got back, he would tell those bastards to put on a good look for him, so that they wouldn't be unable to tell who was on his side.
As for Fang Mengxue...
He'd never taken her seriously since they were kids, and he certainly wouldn't now! Did she think she could bully Zhong Yan? That was ridiculous!
Zhong Yan wasn't deliberately trying to make things difficult for him; she just felt that since he was already her boyfriend, it would only cause her more trouble by arguing with outsiders! Especially since that woman's eyes were practically glued to him.
I'm sorry, but she's an extremely stingy woman!
Although the two had this plan, they underestimated Fang Mengxue's jealousy and pettiness. After returning, she spread the news that Jiang Xiaochen had brought a girl back, acting as if she couldn't wait for trouble to break out in the capital.
Jiang Xiaochen was completely unaware of this.
After the two chose their outfits and went shopping, they returned home to find a large crowd waiting to surround them and see what the legendary Jiang Xiaochen, who had supposedly become a doting husband, was really like.
When Zhong Yan saw this scene, she understood everything. Not to mention, her stepmother was watching her intently, waiting to see her make a fool of herself! Her expression was full of mockery, as if she was certain that a country girl like Zhong Yan couldn't handle such a situation and would suffer in the end.
