Chapter 225: Spread to the Capital
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zuo Huo accompanied Song Yao to Sang Qiu City for her monthly exam.
The college entrance examination was imminent. The principal of City No. 1 High School and a few other teachers had instructed Song Yao to study hard. During this period of time, her studies would be tight, so she shouldn’t do anything to earn money.
Song Yao also felt that the college entrance examination was a turning point that could change her life. She still wanted to postpone the business of the convenience store before the college entrance examination, so Zuo Huo brought Song Yao into a Chinese-style cafeteria to eat.
The cafeteria was located in the most prosperous part of Sangqiu City. From the decoration style, it seemed to have been renovated recently.
The names of the dishes on the menu were also very novel. They were all cultured and elegant poem names.
Song Yao casually ordered two dishes and sat by the window with Zuo Huo, waiting for the dishes to be served. Unexpectedly, as soon as she looked up, she saw an acquaintance.
“Captain Mei?” Song Yao stood up and looked at the man in front of her in surprise.
Ever since she took the train to the capital to look for Baby Xuan until she divorced Yu Yong and married Zuo Huo, Song Yao had never seen Mei Zhao.
According to Zuo Huo, Mei Zhao seemed to have resigned a few days ago. No wonder she saw Mei Zhao here.
Mei Zhao was also very surprised to see Zuo Huo, especially when he saw Song Yao. He shouted angrily, “Song Yao? Shouldn’t you be fighting a lawsuit in your hometown?” “What lawsuit?” Hearing this, Song Yao frowned and subconsciously thought of He Xi.
Zuo Huo’s face darkened. “What do you mean?”
Mei Zhao was still a little afraid when he saw Zuo Huo. He said carefully, “Captain Zuo, you can’t be deceived by this woman!”
“Is that so? Yao and I are together all day long. How can I not know what she did?” Zuo Huo’s voice was low, but his tone revealed anger.
Mei Zhao had been in the army before. Just from his tone, he knew that Zuo Huo was angry.
And it was the kind that was very angry.
Mei Zhao asked carefully, “Captain Zuo, you really don’t know about this?”
Unable to stand Mei Zhao’s ambiguity, Song Yao couldn’t take it anymore. “Captain Mei, what exactly is it? Can you tell me?”
Mei Zhao’s face darkened. He took out a newspaper from his pocket and handed it to Song Yao. “Take a look for yourself!”
Song Yao took the newspaper. A headline with the caption “Sue Song Yao for falsely accusing my husband. Song Yao will clear my family’s name!” came into view.
She scrolled down and saw a photo of He Xi kneeling in front of her bed. There was a caption beside the photo: He Xi knelt and begged Song Yao to save her husband, Yu Wen. However, not only did Song Yao refuse, she even used her power to chase He Xi out. He Xi had no choice but to ask the reporters for help to clear her husband’s name!
‘Where did you get this newspaper?”
Mei Zhao was stunned for a moment before saying, “Isn’t this the latest news?”
“I heard that you were disrespectful to your in-laws when you were at Yu Yong’s house in the past. Even your child might not be Yu Yong’s child. To think that I even helped your child be carried away by Yu Yong in the past. I didn’t expect you to be such a person.”
Hearing this, Song Yao got up angrily and slammed the table. “Nonsense!”
However, although she was angry, she still had to think carefully. Mei Zhao didn’t live in the Yu Family Village at all. Most of the information from the outside world came from the newspapers or from acquaintances.
There was no mention in the newspaper that she had disrespected her in-laws when she was at Yu Yong’s house. The matter of her child was even brushed aside.
Yu Yong would never say that the child was not his, so the only person who would spread the news was Pang Jiao.
Song Yao said coldly, ‘You’re still in contact with Pang Jiao?”
Mei Zhao was stunned. “What does this have to do with Jiaojiao?”
Song Yao smiled again. “Do you know that Pang Jiao married Yu Yong?”
Hearing Song Yao’s question, Mei Zhao’s expression darkened. “What are you trying to say?” Song Yao smiled coldly. “Nothing. I just want to Imow who you heard those words from.”
Bam— Mei Zhao stood up. “Song Yao! What do you mean? I heard it from Pang Jiao! What’s wrong?
She doesn’t know how to do one thing. She’s so kind-hearted. At least she won’t disrespect her in-laws like you and send them to prison…”
“Watch your mouth!”
Before Mei Zhao could finish speaking, Zuo Huo stood in front of Song Yao and said, “You don’t have to say anything about my woman! When Song Yao came to Sangqiu City to look for the child, you and I were both there.. Do you also think that this is a painful act that Song Yao is putting on for us?”
