“Do you believe what Fang Tongtong said?” Ye Youyou felt frustrated by Ye Qianqian’s failure to live up to expectations. “What if she merely wanted to make you guys break up? What if she was merely up to no good? What if she fell for Shen Zhilie and wanted to snatch him away from you and to be the third wheel?”
It was not that Ye Qianqian had never considered those possibilities.
Ye Qianqian returned Ye Youyou’s gaze and said, “Fang Tongtong has never had a boyfriend before. Could she have said these things so casually? Everybody knows that Shen Zhilie is my boyfriend. If she wanted to ruin our relationship, how horrible would her reputation be if news about this were to spread out?”
“I don’t think it is impossible. Shen Zhilie is not a fool. Since he loves you, it would be impossible for him to be caught up in ambiguous relationships with other women.”
Ye Youyou defended Shen Zhilie. “I’ve known Shen Zhilie for close to 20 years, so I think that I still understand him to some extent.”
“But he lied to me.” Ye Qianqian’s eyes turned red as she began to narrate the incident.
Ye Qianqian detailed every single incident, from how Shen Zhilie had lied to her about his injury to how she had caught him red-handed, as well as how Fang Tongtong had a slip of tongue about the accident between her and Shen Zhilie.
The details were thoroughly explained. Ye Youyou was shocked and rendered speechless as she listened to Ye Qianqian.
There were suspicious points, as well as loopholes everywhere.
With so many incidents summed up about Shen Zhilie, to make one believe in his innocence would be a real feat.
Ye Youyou glanced at Ye Qianqian in silence. When she saw Ye Qianqian’s eyes had turned slightly red, she said, “I still think that you should give him a chance to explain himself.”
“That’s not necessary.” Ye Qianqian broke her off. “Luckily, we’re not married. Right now, we can break it off when we want to. Perhaps this might be a good start.”
Ye Youyou became indignant. “Are you going to let it go just like that?”
“What else can I do?”
“This won’t do. Which man out there doesn’t have a few ex-girlfriends? Can’t you just pretend that it was an ex-girlfriend of his?”
“But Fang Tongtong was a good friend I grew up with. He could have messed with anyone else, but rabbits do not eat the grass around their burrows. What does he mean by this?”
“Besides that, Fang Tongtong’s mother called me earlier and scolded me. She scolded me for destroying her daughter. She scolded me for presenting her to the beast. I…” Ye Qianqian was on the verge of breaking down into tears.
Ye Youyou became anxious. She quickly pulled Ye Qianqian into her arms. “Don’t cry, don’t cry.”
Ye Qianqian was not the kind of person who easily cried. After she wiped her eyes and sniffled, she said, “If Fang Tongtong’s mother knows about this incident, it’s as good as the whole village knowing about it. You know how much of a gossipmonger those women in small towns are.”
“Dad is an electrician, and everyone in town knows him. Besides, the news about your grand marriage had probably spread across the town. Now that such an incident happened, I’m afraid that everyone will point fingers and gossip about me if I were to return to town.”
“Hey!” Ye Youyou cheered her on and said, “You were the one who was cheated on. You are the victim. Why do you make it sound as if you’ve done them wrong? Cheer up!”
“Youyou, what should I do?”
“Don’t be afraid. You’re not the one at fault. You should not be the one to suffer from a tarnished reputation. It should be that Fang Tongtong!” Ye Youyou’s eyes turned red. She choked on her tears as she said, “Don’t cry. It’ll be fine if you stop seeing Shen Zhilie from now on. Just leave him for that b*tch. Ultimately, she’s the one who snatched someone else’s boyfriend, so what goes around will come around!”
