The sea breeze came blowing, and the coconut trees rustled.
The two of them frantically put on their clothes in front of everyone. Anyone would be scared out of their wits if such a thing was exposed in front of others.
âGrandma!â Yan Zhihuanâs eyes were red, and her heart was in her throat.
âDonât call me that! Iâm not your grandmother!â Old Madam Yan breathed heavily as she looked at the two disheveled people. âWhat are you still waiting for?! Come home with me!â
This concerned the reputation of the two families, and here in the dark wasnât really a good place to talk.
Duan Linbai was dumbfounded.?F*ck, I took out my phone already. Why are you guys running away? Iâm still livestreaming.
But he couldnât follow them to the Yan residence to watch the show.?Oh, so frustrating!
***
Yan residenceâ¦
When the group returned home, Yan Zhihuan and Xiao Jingan were standing in the living room. Both of their mouths and necks were covered in lipstick and marks left behind by their lovemaking. Xiao Jingan had even put on his pants inside out, and Yan Zhihuanâs clothes were also disheveled.
Mother Huang hadnât followed them there. When she saw this scene, she could guess what had happened. She poured a cup of tea for Old Madam Yan. âOld Madam.â
âGrandmaâ¦â
âDisgrace!â Old Madam Yan raised her hand, grabbed the teacup, and threw it at Yan Zhihuan.
Yan Zhihuanâs legs went weak, and she knelt on the ground with a thump, not daring to breathe loudly.
âTell me. What were you two doing just now?â
Yan Zhihuan couldnât come up with an explanation. She knelt on the ground and kept crying.
Xiao Jingan looked at the person sitting beside Qiao Aiyun. Song Fengwan was still wearing her daytime clothes, looking clean and fresh.
This damn girl actually entrapped me.
Moreover, she brought so many people with her and didnât give me any face at all. Sheâs obviously trying to screw me over.
âItâs the middle of the night. Instead of going home, you were outside withâ¦â Old Madam Yan was too embarrassed to even speak. âYou are a girl. How can you be so shameless?â
âMadam, Miss, have some tea,â Mother Huang said.
âItâs her!â Yan Zhihuan suddenly raised her hand and pointed at Song Fengwan. âGrandma, she wanted to harm me.â
Song Fengwan took the tea from Mother Huang calmly. âThank you, Grandma Huang.â
âItâs all her doing. She clearly knows that I like Big Brother Jingan, yet she still invited him to meet her in private. I couldnât help myself. Thatâs why I went over to check it out. She must have set me up to get me to go.â
With so many people rushing over, it was obvious that she had dug a hole for them to jump into.
âBig Sister, you may not know this, but I wasnât willing to see him at all. Besidesâ¦â Song Fengwan chuckled lightly.
âI was afraid that you would misunderstand, so I specially avoided you when the call came. How did you know I wanted to meet him?
âYou eavesdropped on my call? You stole my stuff before, and now youâre eavesdropping. Youâre really well-bred.â
âI⦠Thisâ¦â Yan Zhihuan was flustered and distraught. Her mind was in a mess, so she couldnât think logically in her mind at all. âAnyway, you must have done it. You did it on purpose.â
âI did it on purpose!â Song Fengwan mocked lightly. âYou pushed me at the flower market today, nearly causing me to bump into the cactus. Because I didnât kick up a fuss with you about this matter, do you really think Iâm easy to bully?â
Yan Zhihuan was dumbfounded.
You say that you didnât kick up a fuss about it, but then why the f*ck are you talking about it now?
Song Fengwan is reallyâ¦
âAt the very least, even if I answered the call on purpose to let you overhear it, may I ask if I was the one who got you to go out in the middle of the night?
âDid I ask you to look for Xiao Jingan? Did I tell you two to take off your clothes and have fun in the wilderness?
âIs it possible that I directed the two of you to do such a vile thing? Iâm not a deity or a monster. How can I control your actions?
âYouâre already in your twenties. Youâre an adult with the ability to act independently. Do you still not know what you should and shouldnât do? Donât throw all the dirty water on me! Because youâre sordid, donât think that everyone is as filthy as you are.â
Yan Zhihuan knelt on the ground. Her face was red, and she couldnât refute a single word.
Every word she said pierced her heart ruthlessly.
On the other hand, Xiao Jingan calmed down. âHuanhuan and I are dating officially, so we got carried away when we were out on a date. Surely itâs not appropriate for your Yan family to bring so many people there!â
Yan Zhihuan was stunned for a few seconds before immediately coming back to her senses. âYes, weâre in a normal relationship.â
âGet up!â Xiao Jingan didnât know how Song Fengwan had brought the Yan family there, but she probably didnât have the guts to expose the photos.
Isnât she bringing about her own destruction?
Besides, she has no evidence to prove I threatened her either.
He had a lot of exciting news in his hands. At the thought of this, he became much calmer.
Yan Zhihuan tried to get up shakily. Old Madam Yan shot her a cold look. Her legs went weak, and she still knelt on the ground.
âSo many people from your Yan family rushed over grandly and disturbed us. If you donât give me a satisfactory explanation today, I will really fight you to the death!â
Old Madam Yan chuckled. âAre you threatening an old woman like me?â
âGrandma Yan, I definitely donât mean that. Iâm just stating the facts.â Xiao Jingan chuckled. âSong Fengwan was the one who asked me out. She kept trying to woo me, but I rejected her.â
Song Fengwan was surprised.
Is there something wrong with this personâs brain?
Turning the blame on me?
Qiao Aiyun couldnât sit still anymore. The Xiao family had come over yesterday to express their goodwill so eagerly. Everyone wasnât blind. He was deliberately slandering Song Fengwan now.
She was about to get up when Yan Wangchuan stopped her. âTake it easy.â
Song Fengwan stood up. âYou said Iâm wooing you?â
Xiao Jingan knew that they would fall out tonight anyway. It was impossible between him and Song Fengwan, but he couldnât fall for her tricks either. If that happened, he wouldnât be able to face anyone in the future.
âThen, what is this?â Song Fengwan took out her phone and played the audio.
It was a recording of their conversation.
â⦠At ten tonight, the old place at the coconut grove. If you donât come, those photos might fall into your motherâs hands. Surely you donât want her to know that you went out to check into a hotel room with two men at such a young age.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao Jingan had been afraid that messages would let her take screenshots, so he had specially called her. He hadnât expected her to record it.
For ordinary high school students to think of recording to leave evidence, she must have planned it long ago.
After calming down just now, he lost his mind again because of the recording.
âThis is your voice, right? You are the one who told me to meet you. Donât cloud the issue. I didnât dare to go, so I asked Uncle Yan to accompany me.â Song Fengwan smiled at him.
âWhat do you mean by you two are dating? There are so many loopholes in your reasoning, yet you still arenât ashamed to say that?â Song Fengwan mocked lightly. âIf youâre dating, just go to a hotel and get a room. What are you doing outside? Do you find it exciting?
âEven if I did invite you out, what were you doing with her instead of waiting for me?â
Xiao Jingan had been so spooked earlier that he had wilted. At this moment, his mind was still in a daze, so his words naturally werenât logical.
He had been spouting complete nonsense and biting others indiscriminately.
The whole lie was so sloppy that it couldnât hold up. Everyone could tell that he was anxious and lying.
âYouâ¦â Xiao Jingan took two steps forward and tried to snatch the phone. Song Fengwan retreated. Someone held onto her shoulder and pulled her back.
Xiao Jingan was caught off guard and almost bumped into Yan Wangchuan.
âWhat are you doing?â Yan Wangchuan stood in front of her and said harshly, âYouâre trying to lay your hands on my daughter in my house?â
âNo, Iâ¦â Before Xiao Jingan could finish speaking, Yan Wangchuan grabbed his collar, twisted it hard, and pulled him forward. The distance between them narrowed in an instantâ¦
Yan Wangchuanâs breath felt cold, and his heart pounded wildly.
âThreatening a child? You asked her out so late at night. What were you thinking of doing to her? Youâre even lying in front of everyone. What do you want to hide?â
âN-no, I didnât⦠I just wanted to chat with herâ¦â
âSpeak properly!â Yan Wangchuanâs fingers tightened, tightening around his neck, making it difficult for him to breathe.
The truth was very clear now.
Xiao Jingan had threatened Song Fengwan, but she didnât dare to show up and told her parents. In the end, Yan Zhihuan went, and the two of them had been caught in the act. He had even mudslinged Song Fengwan and threatened the Yan family?
He sure had guts!
âI asked to meet her because I wanted to persuade her to turn back. Sheâs so young, so she shouldnât be fooling around outside. If you donât believe me, Iâll show you the evidence!â Xiao Jingan still refused to give up.
He took out his phone from his pocket and passed it to Yan Wangchuan while trembling.
âThe evidence is all here! There are many photos!â
His fingertips trembled as he unlocked his phone, opened the photo album, and handed it over.
Yan Wangchuan loosened his fingers and reached out to take the phone.
The photos by the sea werenât very clear, but the photos in the restaurant were in high definition. Fu Chen didnât hide anything, and his face appeared on the screen openly.
His brows furrowed, and his expression became even more solemn.
âWhat kind of photos? Let me take a look.â Old Madam Yan extended her hand.
Yan Wangchuan passed the phone to her, and Qiao Aiyun also leaned over.
Just as Song Fengwan had said, they were indeed Fu Chen and Duan Linbai.
How could Xiao Jingan know that the evidence he was so proud of had instead proven Song Fengwanâs words, making the Yan family even more certain that he had sent people to tail her and even threaten her?
When everyone saw the photos, their expressions became increasingly strange.
Xiao Jingan looked at Song Fengwan with a hint of smugness.
You wretched girl, you set me up? You just had to force me to end you.
You canât blame me for this. You deserve it.
âIâm telling the truth. Besides, she stayed in a hotel with these two men for more than an hour.
âSong Fengwan paid for the meal too. Which man would go out for a meal and let the girl pay? Thereâs a huge problem here. Look at that pretty boy. He looks like that. Who knows what profession heâs inâ¦â
Yan Zhihuan saw that everyoneâs expressions were unfathomable, especially Old Madam Yanâs and Yan Wangchuanâs. Their expressions were the most bizarre, and she thought that there was a turn of events. Relief washed over her, and she slumped onto the ground while rubbing her knees.
Xiao Jingan was worried that they wouldnât believe him. âIf you donât believe me, you can investigate it yourself. These two people are staying at the Holiday Inn over thereâ¦
âThey havenât checked out yet. You can get them to come here and interrogate them.â
âAre you done talking?â Yan Wangchuan raised his eyebrows.
âI wanted to teach her not to fool around with dubious men outside when sheâs still young!â
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Wangchuan clenched his fists and punched him hard in the face.
Xiao Jingan looked fit but lacked true strength. His legs trembled violently, and he staggered and fell to the ground. Yan Zhihuan was so frightened that her body stiffened, and she didnât dare to breathe loudly.
âYou want to get them here to interrogate them? Sure! Wanwan, call them! Get them to come over immediately.â Yan Wangchuan snorted coldly.
Song Fengwan took her phone, got up, and walked outâ¦
Xiao Jingan was dumbfounded.?What the f*ck is going on?
They know them?
Impossible.
***
At this moment, Duan Linbai was spraying his arm heavily with a mosquito repellent and antipruritic spray. âThere are so many mosquitoes down there. F*ck, there are bumps all over my body from the bites. The photos are all here.â
He threw the photos to Fu Chen.
âOkay.â Fu Chen put the photos away.
âWhat a pity. It was at the climax, but everyone actually left.â Duan Linbai was speechless.
âYou want to watch more?â
âNonsense. Say, how can Little Sister-in-Law be so ruthless and calculate everything so clearly? How did she know that those two would be doing that and bring a group of people to catch them in the act?â
âShe couldnât predict that. She only set up the bait. That woman jumped in herself.â Even though Fu Chen was meticulous at scheming and calculating peopleâs thoughts, he himself couldnât guarantee that others would act 100% according to his wishes.
âIn that case, she deserves it.â Duan Linbai rubbed his arms. âWhy arenât you driving? Why are we sitting here? Sheâs not coming to the hotel.â
It was already half past ten at night. Since something had happened to the Yan family, Song Fengwan definitely wouldnât be able to come out tonight.
Fu Chen narrowed his eyes and didnât speak. Duan Linbai was speechless.?What is this person thinking now?
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Fu Chenâs phone rangâ¦
âHeyââ
The call was very short. Duan Linbai had just dripped some eye drops and was resting with his eyes closed.
âDonât you want to watch the show? Iâll bring you to the Yan residence.â
Duan Linbai suddenly opened his eyes. âAre you serious?â
âMhm.â Fu Chen signaled Shi Fang to drive.
This place was only five minutes away from the Yan residence.
Duan Linbai put on his goggles, pondered for a moment, and opened his mouth in shock. âDid you stop the car just now and refuse to leave to wait for this?â
Fu Chen smiled without saying a word.
When someone was forced into a dead end, they would definitely put up a final struggle. Even if the Yan family took Song Fengwanâs word for it and supported her, people would still talk. They would say that the Yan family had put on a show to trick him. In the end, he would still have to be the one to testify.
Duan Linbai sneered.
So, it turns out that these two teamed up. Isnât that bastard surnamed Xiao courting death?
He originally even thought that Fu Chen had lured Song Fengwan and thought that he was a beast. But now, it seemed likeâ¦
They are a perfect match!
âAre you coming?â Fu Chen raised his eyebrows.
âOf course. Even if itâs the end of the world, you still canât stop me from watching a show from the sidelines.â Duan Linbai smiled fawningly, but his back felt cold.
This couple is damn sly! I canât afford to offend them.
