Wang Xiaoli knew full well the feelings between Li Mei and Er Zhu. If she were to sow discord between them, it would be worse than death for Er Zhu!
What's more, she'd heard that Er Zhu was now the village chief. A village chief deceiving someone's affections was an even greater sin!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoli's eyes lit up. She could already see Er Zhu being locked up in prison.
"Ah, where did you see him? How is he?"
Upon hearing this, Li Mei quickly grabbed Wang Xiaoli's hand and asked with a mix of anticipation and worry.
"Um... I met him in my boss's office. Sister Mei, you know, I only found out that day that Er Zhu liked me!"
Wang Xiaoli feigned shyness and lowered her head, then suddenly exclaimed as if she'd just remembered something.
"Ah? Oh..."
Li Mei was stunned at first. She instinctively felt that Wang Xiaoli was lying, but recalling the situation when Er Zhu first arrived, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes.
When Er Zhu first came, his relationship with Wang Xiaoli was indeed the closest. Wang Xiaoli would always coax him, and he would always pester Wang Xiaoli to teach him to read and write.
One day, she even discovered Er Zhu sleeping on the same kang bed with Wang Xiaoli!
If Er Zhu hadn't been foolish then, Wang Ersao would have torn her house down!
Thinking of the past, Li Mei's heart grew cold. She suddenly seemed to understand why Er Zhu was still alone!
After all, he was now surrounded by beautiful women, and she had confessed her feelings more than once, but Er Zhu had always pretended not to understand...
So, he was waiting for Xiaoli!
This thought completely chilled Li Mei's heart. Her eyes welled up with tears, but she couldn't cry in front of Wang Xiaoli.
Seeing Li Mei's pained and suppressed expression, Wang Xiaoli's lips curved slightly, her eyes full of triumph.
Country folk were so easy to fool. Even if Er Zhu returned now, he would be speechless!
In this way, her plan would soon be realized!
"Sister Mei, I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me. That night, Er Zhu and I became betrothed. The reason I came back is because Er Zhu asked me to."
Wang Xiaoli took a deep breath, suppressing her excitement, and spoke again with feigned shyness.
If Er Zhu were here, hearing her lies, he would surely beat her up. Unfortunately, Er Zhu was still on his way.
"What? You've gotten that far? So, Er Zhu is going to marry you?"
Hearing this, Li Mei's tears involuntarily streamed down her face. With tear-filled eyes, she looked at Wang Xiaoli.
Er Zhu confessing his feelings to Wang Xiaoli was already heartbreaking enough, but she hadn't expected they had gone so far...
Li Mei could no longer hold back. Big tears fell one by one, and she clenched her fists tightly.
"Alas, Sister Mei, don't ask anymore. Men, they're all the same. They can't help themselves when they see a woman they like."
Seeing Li Mei's tear-streaked face, Wang Xiaoli was overjoyed but maintained her shy demeanor on the surface.
"Mmm... I understand. When Er Zhu returns, I'll prepare the wedding for you."
Seeing Wang Xiaoli's flushed face, Li Mei's heart was completely shattered. She nodded in despair and leaned against the wall.
She had been missing Er Zhu every day, but unexpectedly, Er Zhu was embracing a beauty in his arms!
Alas, perhaps her fate with Er Zhu was over. What could a widow demand?
Li Mei's heart ached as if cut by a knife. Although her rational mind told her not to believe Wang Xiaoli, her emotions told her that Wang Xiaoli was telling the truth!
Otherwise, Er Zhu wouldn't have let go of those exceptional beauties surrounding Wang Xiaomei!
Otherwise, Er Zhu wouldn't have ignored her affections!
"Xiaoli, I'm not feeling well. You should go home first..."
Li Mei's sadness grew as she thought about it. She clutched her chest and said weakly to Wang Xiaoli.
"Sister Mei, I'm back!"
Just as Wang Xiaoli was about to leave, she suddenly heard Er Zhu's voice from the doorway. She turned her head, and Er Zhu had already entered the room!
Oh my, how did he get back so quickly!
A trace of panic flashed in Wang Xiaoli's eyes, and her mind raced!
"Er Zhu, from now on, you'll live at Wang Ersao's house. You'll be moving there sooner or later, so you might as well move now."
As soon as Er Zhu entered the room, he heard Li Mei say this. Li Mei was looking out the window, not even glancing at him!
Huh?
Er Zhu was confused. He looked down and only then noticed Wang Xiaoli retreating backward.
"Wang Xiaoli, what did you say to Sister Mei?"
Er Zhu didn't need to activate his Heavenly Eye to guess that this was all Wang Xiaoli's doing!
"What, are you afraid to say what you did? Wang Er Zhu, you didn't have this attitude towards me in bed that day!"
Looking at Er Zhu's cold eyes, Wang Xiaoli, terrified, waved her hands repeatedly. A never-before-felt sense of dread instantly washed over her!
"Enough, Wang Er Zhu! You've already taken Xiaoli, and you won't even let her tell me? How long are you going to hide this from me!"
"If you had someone in your heart, you should have told me earlier, so I wouldn't... I... I..."
Seeing that Er Zhu was questioning Wang Xiaoli, Li Mei felt a surge of anger. She wanted to question Er Zhu, but she didn't know how to finish her sentence halfway through.
"Sister Mei, don't listen to her nonsense. This girl tried to seduce me in Huabei City, so I fired her. She's deliberately retaliating against me!"
Seeing Li Mei's sorrowful state, a trace of heartache flashed in Er Zhu's eyes. He grabbed Wang Xiaoli's collar and explained.
Er Zhu disdained to explain himself to others, but if it were Li Mei, he would explain everything clearly!
Because in his heart, Li Mei was a special existence!
Even with the He Luo Divine Art as his backing, he still couldn't help but care about her!
"Ah?" Hearing this, Li Mei was stunned and looked at Wang Xiaoli with some confusion.
"Fine, Wang Er Zhu, I didn't expect you to deny me after you got what you wanted!"
Seeing Li Mei's confused look, Wang Xiaoli decided to go all out and continue her revenge!
She had the capital to slander people anyway, and no one knew about Er Zhu's situation with her in Huabei City!
As soon as Er Zhu finished speaking, Wang Xiaoli struggled free with all her might. She stood in the courtyard and shouted loudly:
"Uncles and aunties, hurry out and see! Er Zhu took me, and now he won't admit it. He's a beast!"
Wang Xiaoli's voice grew louder and louder, and tears streamed down her face. Those who didn't know the truth would truly think she had suffered great injustice.
Seeing Wang Xiaoli throwing a tantrum on the ground, Er Zhu helplessly twitched his lips.
Wang Xiaoli's acting was truly superb. If she were an actress, she'd surely win an Oscar!
"Er Zhu, are you telling the truth? Xiaoli didn't tell me that."
Just as Er Zhu was preparing to watch the show, Li Mei ran up to him and asked.
