Chapter 554: Chapter 553 You Are So Despicable

What exactly was going on?

It turned out that Miao Xue, feeling guilty and afraid someone would tell Wu Zhengyang about the foolish thing she did that day, which could lead to a big fight with him,

followed Wu Zhengyang to work the very next day, ignoring her physical pain.

Lin Qiu’s partner was there, and Wu Zhengyang was actually relieved that Miao Xue was under his watch, preventing her from causing trouble for Lin Qiu, so Wu Zhengyang didn’t think much about it.

Miao Xue clung to Wu Zhengyang not only during work hours but also after work, fearing someone might seize the opportunity to tell him something.

Lin Qiu next door wasn’t a big threat, especially since Lin Qiu’s partner was still around, making it unlikely for Lin Qiu to tell Wu Zhengyang about it.

Miao Xue was most scared that Lin Xia would find out and complain to Wu Zhengyang.

Lin Xia, in her eyes, was ruthless and harsh, capable of anything.

After getting through the day with the situation calming down, she slightly let down her guard, thinking that Lin Xia’s house was occupied and wouldn’t bother with these matters for now.

To prevent Wu Zhenghong at home from speaking carelessly, she even sweet-talked Wu Zhenghong thoroughly.

She proactively admitted her impulsive mistake to her, earnestly begging her not to tell Wu Zhengyang, or else the two of them would be truly finished.

Wu Zhenghong, after all, considered the bigger picture; she didn’t want her brother to find out and cause a restless household, so she agreed to Miao Xue.

As for Wang Lan, Miao Xue couldn’t be sure whether she had seen anything or what she really meant.

She went to the store to buy something and didn’t find the appropriate opportunity to talk inside because the room was occupied.

Today, after lunch, Wu Zhengyang said he was going to the bathroom.

Miao Xue and Wu Zhenghong began clearing the dishes together.

Miao Xue carefully watched from the kitchen window and noticed that Wu Zhengyang didn’t go straight back to the house after coming out of the backyard toilet.

Feeling guilty like a thief, she feared Wu Zhengyang might bump into someone from the Lin Family again, so she immediately found an excuse to leave the house too.

Not seeing him in the yard, she ran straight to the front gate and decided to go to the Sun Family’s store.

She happened to overhear Wang Lan telling Wu Zhengyang about what she did.

Upon hearing this, how could she let it slide?

So that led to her bursting in and cursing Wang Lan outright.

Wang Lan wasn’t a pushover and immediately started yelling back.

The quarrel then spilled out in front of the house, providing a spectacle for everyone.

Wang Lan, hand on her hip, pointed at Miao Xue, "Look at her, everyone. Who does this? She snatched a man from someone, and yet she has the nerve to disrupt that person’s current relationship! Isn’t that shameless?

I was just telling how it is, and I didn’t even want to tell Wu Family, it was him who insisted on asking me..."

Wang Lan actually didn’t want a confrontation; she had intended just to enjoy the Lin Family and Wu Family drama.

But it just so happened that this afternoon, a few neighbors came over to her place after lunch to chat and mentioned what happened between Miao Xue and Lin Qiu’s partner.

As they talked, the conversation got a bit loud.

Suddenly, Wu Zhengyang came in, slamming the door, with a livid face, saying he heard it all from outside and asked Wang Lan for specifics.

It was the first time Wang Lan had seen Wu Zhengyang looking so angry, and though she didn’t want to say it, she had to.

Who would have thought, just as she started to speak, Miao Xue charged in like a madwoman.

She started cursing vehemently at her, and Wang Lan, not one to take it lying down, thought, why should she endure this?

Miao Xue, knowing she was in the wrong but not wanting to appear weak in such a situation, toughened up instead.

"You’re just making things up! Making a scene for nothing! If it weren’t for your loose tongue..." She didn’t believe Wu Zhengyang knew before as he was fine during lunch. It must have been Wang Lan who told him.

"Just shut up! You think you can justify what you did?" Wu Zhengyang didn’t want to stay a second longer to be the neighborhood’s laughingstock, angrily dragging Miao Xue toward the house door.

Miao Xue weighed the pros and cons, and she didn’t want the drama to continue.

For the current situation, it was best to placate Wu Zhengyang and his family early.

Hadn’t she seen her mother-in-law’s face, the flesh heaped up in a grimace, looking so angry she could kill someone?

She had just acted impulsively without thinking it through, and now, upon reflection, she truly regretted it.

When Wang Lan saw Lin Xia and several others coming out from the entryway, she felt she had backers and couldn’t just let Miao Xue and her group walk away.

Standing next to her, some neighbors were also there for the excitement, but who had the persuasive power like Lin Qiu and her partner?

"Miao Xue! If you’re not feeling guilty, why leave? Let’s confront this face-to-face!"

"Lin Qiu! You guys came out just in time! What happened at the door that day, you know better than I do sitting inside!

Did Miao Xue shamelessly tell your partner about Wu Zhengyang and your past engagement?"

Because of Wang Lan’s words, Miao Xue was in a dilemma whether to stay or leave.

Everyone’s gaze suddenly gathered on Lin Qiu and Kang Yijun, everyone was curious about her train conductor partner.

Among these people, some had seen him, more had not, so they naturally took the time to scrutinize Kang Yijun.

Kang Yijun stood there tall and confident, inviting everyone’s gaze.

Yet, his expression was quite serious.

After all, who could smile in such a situation?

Lin Xia stood by Lin Qiu’s side; she coldly turned to the Wu Family, "Xiaoqiu! Tell everyone what happened that day!"

Since this incident had blown up, it was a good opportunity for everyone to hear just how despicable Miao Xue was!

After all, reason stood on their side.

With a gaze filled with loathing directed at Miao Xue, Lin Qiu glared back fiercely.

She believed herself to be innocent; what right did Miao Xue have to blame her at this time?

Today, all of this was a mess of Miao Xue’s own making, unworthy of a shred of sympathy.

Lin Qiu nodded vigorously, "It’s true! She thought I hadn’t told anyone about my past engagement, but I had been upfront and honest from the start without hiding anything.

She brought it up to my partner just to stir trouble and make my life difficult! Sadly, Miao Xue, your plan backfired!"

The anger and frustration she’d been suppressing since that day were finally released.

The neighbors buzzed with discussion; although they had heard some rumors from others, nothing was as authentic as hearing it from those directly involved.

They looked at Miao Xue with disdain and contempt.

Wu Zhengyang clenched his fists in anger, glaring fiercely at the bewildered Miao Xue, "Miao Xue! You’re really despicable!"

This woman was repeatedly challenging his limits, reshaping his perceptions!

He had thought, with Lin Qiu’s partner here, Miao Xue would finally be reassured.

No longer would she be paranoid daily that there was something between him and Lin Qiu!

Yet, unimaginably, she could commit such an act!

What if Lin Qiu hadn’t been honest? What would have been the consequences?

No one likes deception, and every man cares about his woman’s past!

Could it be that Miao Xue, having harmed Lin Qiu once, wanted to do it a second time?

He definitely wouldn’t indulge her any longer...
