Chapter 534 Playing the Fool

Dongfang Mei said nothing more and began to eat.

"Mr. Jiang, I know you've always disliked me because of our previous misunderstandings!"

Song Tong's gaze fell on Jiang Yi as she spoke. "I believe that one day, these misunderstandings will be resolved. But no matter what, I must apologize to you. It's all my fault! I hope you won't take what happened before to heart!"

Jiang Yi took a deep breath.

This woman was too calculating!

By apologizing to him in front of so many people with such a sincere attitude, she made everyone believe that everything was his fault.

She, Song Tong, was portrayed as the good person, while Jiang Yi was painted as a petty villain!

Seeing Jiang Yi remain silent, Song Tong continued, "Mr. Jiang, if you feel I've done anything wrong, please tell me. I will definitely improve in the future!"

Jiang Yi sneered and ignored Song Tong!

Her tactics could fool others, but they couldn't fool him.

Jiang Yi knew exactly what kind of person Song Tong was.

"Jiang Yi, this isn't quite right!"

Dongfang Xun frowned and spoke to Jiang Yi. "Song Tong has already apologized to you, yet you're still holding a grudge. What do you want? Do you expect Song Tong to kneel down and apologize to you? Your magnanimity is too narrow; you always refuse to let go even when you're in the right."

Hearing this, Jiang Yi couldn't stand it!

Dongfang Xun was an utter fool.

Song Tong was toying with him like an idiot, yet he still thought Song Tong was a good person and spoke up for her.

If he stayed any longer, Jiang Yi feared he would be angered to death by Dongfang Xun.

"I'm done eating. Please, enjoy your meal!"

Jiang Yi said, putting down his chopsticks, and walked out of the private room.

"I need to leave too!"

Shen Lu said goodbye to everyone and followed him out.

Dongfang Mei's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this.

Although she knew what had happened, from Song Tong's tone and actions just now, it was clear that Song Tong was putting on an act.

Dongfang Mei was not foolish and had already seen through the issue.

"Mom needs you for something. Hurry back!" Dongfang Mei said to Dongfang Xun. Su Dan Novel Network

"I don't have time to go back now!"

Dongfang Xun replied, "Song Tong's father is ill. I need to find a divine physician to treat Song Tong's father. This matter cannot be delayed!"

Dongfang Mei was a little stunned!

"Have you been bewitched? You're not even managing family matters and are preoccupied with others' affairs. You're not even married yet, and who knows what you'll be like if you do get married!"

Dongfang Mei finished speaking and left the private room.

Dongfang Xun paid no heed to Dongfang Mei's words.

Meanwhile, upon reaching the lobby, Jiang Yi settled all the bills.

As soon as he finished paying, Dongfang Mei came down from the private room upstairs.

"Song Tong definitely has a problem!"

Dongfang Mei said, "I didn't believe it before, but now I do. This woman is not simple! She's managed to charm my brother so much, and I'm truly worried!"

"I don't want to get involved in your family's mess. Do whatever you want!" Jiang Yi said.

Hearing this, Dongfang Mei let out a chuckle.

"I can't believe you're so angered by a woman like Song Tong. When did you become so petty!"

"I'm not angered by Song Tong, but by your brother. He's an absolute idiot!" Jiang Yi stated.

"What exactly happened?"

Dongfang Mei asked Shen Lu.

Shen Lu did not hide anything and recounted everything that had happened earlier.

Dongfang Mei was stunned after hearing it.

After a moment, Dongfang Mei recovered her senses.

"My brother is too foolish!"

Dongfang Mei exclaimed, "How could he fall for a woman like Song Tong? Has he gone mad! He has no chance of being with Song Tong, and my mother would certainly not agree!"

"It's hard to say. Song Tong is an expert at acting. Even you were deceived just now, so perhaps Aunt Liu will also fall for her tricks!" Jiang Yi said.

"I absolutely will not let that happen!"

Dongfang Mei's eyebrows furrowed.

"If this kind of woman marries into our Dongfang family, she will ruin all of us."

Hearing this, Jiang Yi couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?" Dongfang Mei asked.

"Song Tong is not someone you can easily deal with. Even you might not be able to handle her!"

Jiang Yi smiled slightly. "Dongfang Xun is completely infatuated with Song Tong. No matter what methods you use, they will be useless."

"You underestimate me too much. Dealing with Song Tong is very easy!" Dongfang Mei declared.

Jiang Yi took a deep breath.

Song Tong was not simple, and Dongfang Mei might not be her match.

He had experienced Song Tong's abilities firsthand before.

"You just wait and see. I'll show you how I'll deal with Song Tong!"

Dongfang Mei finished speaking and walked directly upstairs.

Jiang Yi did not leave immediately but sat down on the sofa in the lobby.

Since it was a show to watch, he should watch it to the end before leaving.

He had plenty of time anyway!

After nearly half an hour, Dongfang Mei returned.

Dongfang Mei's expression was quite grim!

It was clear that Dongfang Mei had lost.

"How did it go?" Jiang Yi asked deliberately.

"I truly underestimated Song Tong!"

Dongfang Mei took a deep breath.

"I spoke to Song Tong kindly, but the conversation fell apart. Now, I've become the bad guy, and she, Song Tong, has become the victim!"

"I've met many people who are good at acting, but I've never met someone this good. If she marries into our Dongfang family, our Dongfang family will be completely finished!"

Seeing Dongfang Mei's expression, Jiang Yi couldn't help but laugh again.

"You're gloating when you've been bullied!"

Dongfang Mei had a pleased look on her face.

"I told you earlier that Song Tong is not easy to deal with, but you wouldn't listen. Now you're suffering the consequences, aren't you?" Jiang Yi said.

"I really should have listened to you earlier!"

Dongfang Mei took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Yi. "What should I do now? We can't let that woman marry into our family."

"I can't do anything either!"

Jiang Yi shrugged and said, "Honestly, the problem lies entirely with your brother. If your brother weren't so foolish and believed Song Tong, constantly defending her, it wouldn't matter how capable Song Tong was!"

"That makes sense!"

Dongfang Mei nodded. "It seems I need to have a serious talk with my brother!"

Just as Jiang Yi was about to speak, Song Tong walked down from upstairs, her arm linked with Dongfang Xun's.

The two looked extremely intimate, like a newly married couple, inseparable.
