"Qing Shushu?"

Tang Muyan frowned and called her name.

Hearing this, Qing Shushu, who had just gone crazy, seemed to realize something. She looked up and saw a beautiful and bright face in front of her, looking at her suspiciously.

She seemed to drop her jaw in shock, and stuttered, "Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law."

This call made Tang Muyan feel a little embarrassed. She had just told Qi Yuan that she had nothing to do with Lu Huaichen, but Qing Shushu, the brainless one, called her sister-in-law.

Tang Muyan glanced at Qi Yuan with some embarrassment, then shifted her gaze back to Qing Shushu.

'Doesn't she know that Lu Huaichen and I are divorced?'

Tang Muyan warned, "Don't call me sister-in-law."

Qing Shushu thought that Tang Muyan was angry because of her previous nonsense, so she didn't let her call her.

She scratched her head awkwardly and explained in a panic, "Sister-in-law. I really didn't mean it. I didn't know that person was you."

Qing Shushu was instinctively afraid of Tang Muyan, not because of Tang Muyan herself, but because of Chen Jing.

When Tang Muyan first got married, Qing Shushu had already been adopted by the Lu family for ten years. She relied on the love that Grandma Lu showed her and was fearless, often causing trouble for Tang Muyan from time to time.

In her subconscious, it was because of Tang Muyan that she became the adopted daughter of the Lu family instead of Lu Huaichen's wife.

Qing Shushu likes Lu Huaichen, and everyone in the Lu family knows it, but because of the old lady's wishes, no one dares to do anything to her.

Even if Chen Jing disliked her, she would not pay any attention to her. She would just turn a blind eye and let it go.

But from the moment Tang Muyan married into the Lu family, everything changed.

Whenever Qing Shushu caused trouble for Tang Muyan, Chen Jing would come to deal with her. Even with the old lady's protection, Chen Jing would not let her off easily. At the very least, she would slap her a few times, at worst, she would lock her up at home and starve her for a few days. She would also put a lot of obstacles in her way, both openly and covertly, and quarrel with the old lady from time to time.

Chen Jing treated Tang Muyan like a treasure. If anyone said anything bad about Tang Muyan, she would immediately turn her face away and would not even give face to the old lady.

After Qing Shushu made trouble a few times, she didn't dare to make trouble anymore and could only obediently call Tang Muyan sister-in-law.

She was now humbly lowering her head, not daring to look up at Tang Muyan.

No matter how Tang Muyan tried to persuade Qing Shushu, she just couldn't understand. She turned cold and said, "I get annoyed just by seeing you. Go away."

The tone was fierce.

Unlike Tang Muyan, her sister-in-law has always been gentle and virtuous. Although she looks down on her, she will not show it easily and is famous for her tolerance.

Qing Shushu left in shame before she had time to think deeply about it.

After Qing Shushu left, Tang Muyan explained to Qi Yuan beside her, "She probably doesn't know that I'm divorced from Lu Huaichen."

Qi Yuan's reaction was very calm, he just hummed.

Just when Tang Muyan thought Qi Yuan would ask something about Lu Huaichen, Qi Yuan spoke up, "Why do I feel like Qing Shushu seems to be very afraid of you?"

Tang Muyan nodded, "Yeah, she is quite afraid of me."

"You're pretty awesome."

Tang Muyan didn't know whether she was praising her or mocking her, and there was a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"I don't mean anything else. Qing Shushu is a difficult person to deal with." Qi Yuan's words dispelled Tang Muyan's previous thoughts.

This is not wrong. Qing Shushu is indeed difficult to deal with. Relying on the fact that she is half a member of the Lu family and the favor of the old lady of the Lu family, she has become the center of attention in Jiangcheng.

"Qing Shushu is quite annoying." When Tang Muyan said this, disgust flashed in her eyes. Tang Muyan had suffered a lot because of her over the years.

Tang Muyan talked about her own story, "When I first married into the Tang family, she always made trouble for me and caused me a lot of problems."

Qi Yuan asked, "Shouldn't Mr. Lu protect you?"

What Lu Huaichen did for Tang Muyan's meeting didn't seem like it would cause Tang Muyan to suffer any grievances.

"Him! He won't take care of my business."

Tang Muyan looked at Qi Yuan and laughed at herself, "I hope he won't cause me any trouble."

"It was my mother-in-law who stood up for me. Qing Shushu was afraid of her, so she took me with her."

Qi Yuan didn't expect Tang Muyan to say that. She was a little bit unconvinced. She asked, "Is Mr. Lu really like that?"

"Really? Look at you. I tell you, you still don't believe me. If Lu Huaichen really treats me well, I can still divorce him."

In order to prove that what she said was true, Tang Muyan immediately lifted up her hair, came close to Qi Yuan, and pulled her ear to show her, "Look, this is what Qing Shushu cut with a knife that day. There is still a scar now."

Qi Yuan took a closer look and found that it was indeed a small scar, the size of a thumb.

Tang Muyan let down her hair and said gloomily, "You see it, right?"

"This is what happened when Qing Shushu was eating. She didn't like me and started fighting with me. She picked up a fork and was about to scratch my face. Fortunately, I dodged it and she only scratched my ear, which required a few stitches."

"By the way, Lu Huaichen was there too, just sitting there looking at me."

When Tang Muyan said this, her tone was unexpectedly calm, without any grievance or complaint, as if this had never happened to her.

Qi Yuan suddenly felt some sympathy for Tang Muyan. She was wronged, and her husband was just watching coldly from the side. Anyone would feel heartbroken.

She looked at Tang Muyan, not knowing what to say for a moment. She was not the kind of person who could comfort others.

Tang Muyan laughed, "Believe me now, there is really nothing going on between me and Lu Huaichen. There won't be any now, and there won't be any in the future."

She spoke firmly, leaving no room for negotiation.

All this fell into the eyes of Lu Huaichen who was not far away. It turned out that she had been so excessive before. No wonder she hated him so much in her heart.

Qi Yuan and Tang Muyan had already left, but Lu Huaichen was still standing in the distance and did not follow.

Lu Huaichen was just watching this scene not far away. He had been there since the moment Qing Shushu came out.

He also heard everything Tang Muyan said.

In the past three years, Tang Muyan had indeed suffered a lot of grievances following him, and he did tacitly allow Qing Shushu to beat her, and he did not deny it.

He was taking advantage of Qing Shushu at that time. He originally wanted to use Qing Shushu to expose Tang Muyan's true colors and make her make a mistake, and then use Old Lady Lu to drive Tang Muyan away.

But Tang Muyan took the two slaps from Qing Shushu without saying a word.

She didn't dodge until Qing Shushu picked up the knife, but she failed to dodge and her ear was still cut.

The situation was chaotic and he didn't have time to stop it.

He actually just wanted the two of them to fight. Tang Muyan just made a mistake. He didn't want her to be disfigured, nor did he expect the situation to develop to this point.

Afterwards, Chen Jing slapped Qing Shushu twenty times in front of Old Lady Lu, and her face was almost disfigured. The old lady was so angry about this that she was sent to the hospital, and he was also severely scolded.

It was only because of Tang Muyan's plea that he was able to escape from his mother safely.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Lu?"

A nasty male voice pulled him out of his thoughts.
