Chapter 35: They were the ones who stole the kiss?
The following evening, as the sun set and darkness gradually enveloped the earth.
Liu Nian opened the door with a creak, looked around, and stealthily walked towards the woods at the edge of the village.
"Hmph, still saying you weren't going to steal a moment of peace!"
Aunt Cui, who had been lying in ambush for a long time, immediately followed stealthily.
Once we catch her red-handed, let's see how she tries to deny it! Aunt Cui touched her face, and the thought of Liu Nian slapping her made her furious.
Aunt Cui gritted her teeth and shook her hand violently a few times, thinking about how to raise her arm and slap Liu Nian's face later.
Just thinking about it makes me feel so good!
Liu Nian walked hurriedly, her head covered with a scarf, her steps light and breezy, which drew another wave of disdain from Aunt Cui.
So hasty? Oh my, what a flirtatious person. I guess Su Xu is still no good, otherwise why would she be flirting with men outside?
Upon seeing Liu Nian enter the woods, Aunt Cui immediately raised her eyebrows and ran off to call for help!
Within minutes, a group of villagers gathered in the woods, with Aunt Cui leading the way.
Aunt Cui whispered, "I'm telling you, I saw Liu Nian go into the woods with my own eyes! She's having a secret rendezvous with her lover right now!"
"You wait, when they're doing their business, we'll catch her red-handed!"
Aunt Cui spoke with great enthusiasm and pride.
"Yes! Let's catch her red-handed!" Wang Xiuzhi, standing in the queue, couldn't wait any longer.
She sighed, then added in a pretentious tone, "Although Liu Nian is my daughter-in-law, I'm not one to show favoritism! She should be punished as she deserves!"
"Your daughter-in-law is cheating on you, you should break her legs!" Shen Juan made a fierce expression. "She should know what it means to be a virtuous wife!"
"Yes! That's right! This pair of scoundrels should be punished severely!"
Liu Nian, hiding behind a large tree, almost burst out laughing.
"Wow, it's so lively!" Liu Nian took Su Xu's hand and walked out.
Aunt Cui immediately jumped up, raising her arm to slap Liu Nian across the face, "I'll beat you up, you shameless bastard!"
The man hidden behind Liu Nian suddenly made his move, grabbing her wrist tightly and forcefully shaking her off.
Aunt Cui stumbled and was thrown to the ground.
"Su, Su Xu?"
The people's faces were filled with disbelief.
Su Xu stood beside Liu Nian, his voice low but icy, "What? Can't I take a walk in the woods with my wife?"
"What? Did I break the law?" Liu Nian looked at them with a wronged expression. "What are you trying to do by making such a fuss?"
Liu Nian nestled beside Su Xu, wiping away tears with feigned sincerity, while Su Xu's sinister gaze swept over everyone present—
"I heard you all saying you wanted to catch my wife cheating, and I heard it all clearly!"
"You must give us an explanation today!"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Wang Xiuzhi and Shen Juan's faces. The young couple had just gone out for a walk, and people were saying that the wife was having an affair. No wonder they were so angry.
"It's all Aunt Cui's fault! She said you were having an affair! We came here to help catch you in the act!" The two quickly tried to clear their names.
"Me! I—" Aunt Cui was speechless.
"Aunt Cui, you're wrong! Aunt Cui has mistaken the person!" Aunt Cui quickly lowered her voice to apologize to Liu Nian.
Liu Nian snorted coldly, "I think the slap I gave you yesterday wasn't hard enough!"
"But, but... I, I just made a mistake!" Aunt Cui also felt wronged. The person yesterday clearly looked a lot like Liu Nian.
However, she then noticed that the person who had just entered the woods was wearing different clothes than Liu Nian was wearing now!
In other words, Liu Nian wasn't the one having an affair; there were others involved.
At the same time, an indescribable sound came, high and low, wave-like... making the listeners blush.
