CHAPTER 46: CHAPTER 46: DISTORTING RIGHT AND WRONG

"Yes, thanks to you, I was able to come back. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known about Qian Cheng and Xue’er..."

Before Bai Yuhua could finish, Cheng Li interrupted, saying, "Aunt Bai, no need to be so polite. It’s what I should do. Little Xue is my good friend. I can’t just watch her make a mistake, right?"

Listening to Cheng Li’s words, Bai Yuhua’s gaze turned cold, and with an unpleasant expression, she asked in a harsh tone, "Cheng Li, are you really Xue’er’s good friend?"

"Aunt Bai, what’s wrong? I really am Xue’er’s good friend. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her. We’re so close that we can share everything."

"Really?" Bai Yuhua scoffed, glanced at Cheng Li lightly, and said, "Are you sure Xue’er wants to divorce Qian Cheng?"

"Of course, Xue’er told me herself. How could it be fake?"

"When I heard her say that, I was really anxious. I’ve been advising her to think it over carefully. Qian Cheng is a rare good man, and a soldier as well. I persuaded her not to forfeit this blessing and to live well with Qian Cheng, but she wouldn’t listen. I had no choice, fearing they might argue or even fight, so I went to find you."

At this point, Cheng Li was completely unaware that Jiang Xue had not, as she expected, had a big row with Mu Qiancheng and then left the Mu Family. So, she spoke ill of Jiang Xue in front of the elders of the Mu Family, presenting herself as a good person.

"Is that so?" Bai Yuhua’s gaze grew colder. It wasn’t like that at all. Fortunately, Mu Qiancheng had explained the situation to her; otherwise, she would have believed Cheng Li.

"That’s right, that’s how it is. Aunt Bai, don’t worry. I’ll go to Xue’er’s parents’ house later to persuade her to come back and live well with Qian Cheng."

"No need, your goodwill is noted." A cold voice rang out, startling Cheng Li. She quickly looked up to see Jiang Xue standing at the entrance of the hall, gazing at her with icy eyes.

"Little Xue, why are you here?" Cheng Li, in a panic, said something she shouldn’t have.

"Cheng Li, this is my house. If I’m not here, where should I be?" Jiang Xue looked at Cheng Li’s panic and guilt, slightly curling her lips into a cold smile.

"You... you didn’t go to your parents’ house?" Cheng Li stammered, having only seen Mu Qiancheng leave, assuming they had fought and Jiang Xue would angrily go back to her parents’ house.

"Why should I go back to my parents’ house?" Jiang Xue asked in return, rendering Cheng Li speechless.

She hadn’t expected that even though Mu Qiancheng had left, Jiang Xue stayed and didn’t go back to her parents’ house. It wasn’t what she had planned.

If she had known Jiang Xue was home, she wouldn’t have said those things earlier. Now she’s been caught, and will Jiang Xue listen to her in the future?

If Jiang Xue stops listening to her, will she still help her with the things she wants her to do?

Will she still be as manipulable as now?

The more Cheng Li thought about it, the more anxious she became. Ignoring Bai Yuhua and Mu Siwu, she ran over to Jiang Xue, saying, "Little Xue, listen to me. I didn’t mean it like that. It’s just that before, when you said you wanted to divorce Qian Cheng, I thought, I thought..."

Cheng Li, speaking while glancing at the two elders of the Mu Family, couldn’t get a complete sentence out despite trying for a long time.

Jiang Xue, seeing Cheng Li’s lies exposed, still trying to deceive and trap her, laughed coldly and asked, "What did you think?"
