Every time Jiang Xue gets into trouble, it’s always Cheng Li who cleans up her mess, apologizing on her behalf, which makes him dislike Jiang Xue even more.
So, when he saw Cheng Li crying as she came out of the Mu Family’s house, he thought it must have been because Jiang Xue bullied her.
"Mu, Aunt Mu, I didn’t scare anyone." Zhuoyue’s face flushed with embarrassment when Bai Yuhua said this to him.
He knew the Mu Family was protective, and he also knew the Mu Family treated Jiang Xue well. Previously, he thought the Mu Family was foolish for this, thinking Mu Qiancheng was out of his mind to fall for someone as worthless as Jiang Xue.
What’s so good about Jiang Xue? She’s spoiled and pampered, can’t handle anything. Even if she went to high school, what’s the use? Being from the countryside, education and culture hold no value there.
"Then why are you yelling at my house?" Bai Yuhua questioned Zhuoyue. She also knew about Zhuoyue’s feelings for Cheng Li and used to think favorably of the two. She thought this way, Jiang Xue would have a friend, wouldn’t be so lonely, and they could visit each other often.
But today, after learning Cheng Li’s true nature, she felt Zhuoyue was foolish to fall for such a scheming woman.
Looking at Zhuoyue now, Bai Yuhua seemed to see the former Jiang Xue — being deceived by Cheng Li while still helping to count the money.
"I, I saw Cheng Li crying, so I thought I’d come ask, ask about it." Zhuoyue stammered out his reason, which made Bai Yuhua’s face look even worse.
She grew even more annoyed with Cheng Li and questioned, "So, did Cheng Li say it was my Xue’er who bullied her?"
"Aunt Mu, if not Jiang Xue, then who? It’s not possible that you all bullied her, right?" Zhuoyue, hearing Bai Yuhua’s tone, became anxious immediately. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
He could tolerate himself being accused, but not Cheng Li. Because she was the goddess in his heart.
"You guessed right, I was the one who bullied her." Bai Yuhua glanced at Zhuoyue and said coldly.
If earlier chasing Cheng Li out of the Mu Family’s house was bullying, then she indeed bullied her.
"Aunt Mu, what kind of joke is this? How could it be you? I get it, it must be Jiang Xue who forced you to do this, right?"
Without waiting for Bai Yuhua to respond, Zhuoyue continued, "Aunt Mu, don’t worry, with Brother Qiancheng not at home, I’ll help you properly teach that presumptuous woman a lesson."
Hearing this, Bai Yuhua’s face turned dark instantly, glaring at Zhuoyue, she asked, "Zhuoyue, tell me, who is the presumptuous woman? You’re not talking about my Xue’er, are you?"
"Aunt Mu, who else could it be if not her? Ever since she married Brother Qiancheng, she’s been bad to you all. Honestly, I’ve been fed up for a while. Today, I’ll stand up for Cheng Li and for you all as well."
"Aunt Mu, where is she, I’ll help you sort her out." As Zhuoyue said this, he tried to pass Bai Yuhua to enter the Mu Family’s house.
"Stop!" Bai Yuhua’s face changed as she yelled out, "Zhuoyue, for the sake of you playing with Qiancheng since childhood, I’ll remind you, Cheng Li is not a good person, don’t get deceived."
"Aunt Mu, how can you say that about Cheng Li? She’s so kind, she wouldn’t even step on an ant. How is she not a good person? But Jiang Xue, she’s always causing trouble."
"Zhuoyue, since you won’t listen, I won’t say anymore. Just leave, and don’t ever come to my house again. Also, Xue’er is part of the Mu Family, I won’t allow anyone to bully her."
