Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhang Xiulan naturally heard about Chen Baiyi and she Xiao. She knew that Chen Baiyi must have some shameful secret for her to propose to sever ties from the family. She did not expect that this secret was actually a man! What a vixen. Her reputation was so bad, yet there was still a man who was willing to take her. However, that man was not any better. she was a murderer. Right now, only a murderer was willing to take her. Zhang Xiulan had completely forgotten that Chen Baiyi had such a reputation because of her.

Chen Xiulan naturally would not let go of an opportunity to mock Chen Baiyi. She immediately brought Chen Chunsheng to look for Chen Baiyi. While traveling all the way from the easternmost point to the westernmost point, Chen Xiulan did not even pant. When she thought about how she could humiliate Chen Baiyi, her entire body was filled with vigor. She pushed open the door of Chen Baiyi’s house with an imposing aura.

When Chen Baiyi heard the commotion, she immediately got up. When she saw that it was Zhang Xiulan, she frowned. “What are you doing here?”

Zhang Xiulan did not have the slightest awareness that she was trespassing on private property. She even said in a sarcastic tone, “Why am I here? Why do you think I’m here? You’re not with your murderer lover? You were so smug when I left earlier!”

“I didn’t expect this, but it makes sense. A jinx like you can only be worthy of such a murderer!”

Chen Baiyi ignored Zhang Xiulan’s sarcastic remark. She noticed that Chen Chunsheng, who was following behind Zhang Xiulan, had gauze wrapped around his right eye and his entire face was red. He looked like he had a fever. Chen Baiyi realized that this might not be a light injury. He was Chen Baiyi’s half-brother and Chen Baiyi could not bring herself to be as vicious as Zhang Xiulan was. Out of concern, Chen Baiyi still mentioned, “What’s wrong with Chen Chunsheng? His face is so red. I’m afraid he has a fever. Hurry up and bring him to a hospital. Otherwise, he might go blind.”

When Zhang Xiulan heard that, she thought that Chen Baiyi was cursing her son. She scolded, “Bah! Chen Baiyi, Chunsheng is your younger brother after all. Why are you so evil? Let me tell you, Chunsheng is fine. It’s just a superficial wound. Why would he need to go to a hospital? Don’t try to scare me.” After saying that, she spat at Chen Baiyi.

Fortunately, Chen Baiyi dodged quickly and avoided Zhang Xiulan’s disgusting saliva. She was angry. She had been kind enough to express concern about Chen Chunsheng, but not only did Zhang Xiulan not accept it, but she also snubbed her. She immediately retorted, “A superficial wound? Can’t you see that his face is red? I kindly suggested that you bring him to a big hospital to take a look. Yet you didn’t appreciate it and said that I was evil. If you have the time, why don’t you hurry up and bring him to get examined? If you delay it, there might be sequelae.”

“Stop spouting nonsense. When we went to bandage his wound yesterday, the doctor didn’t even say anything. Who do you think you are? As if you’re trustworthy? Chen Baiyi, I think you just can’t stand to see your brother doing well. You keep saying vicious stuff like he’ll go blind and that he’s sick.” Zhang Xiulan spat again.

No matter how nice she was, she could not tolerate being framed like this. Chen Baiyi was already burning with anger. She said this only because she wanted Zhang Xiulan to treat it seriously. Otherwise, with Zhang Xiulan’s stinginess, she definitely wouldn’t be willing to spend money on it, even if he was her beloved son. Chen Baiyi knew Zhang Xiulan very well. Zhang Xiulan was afraid that it would cost a lot of money, so she insisted that it was a superficial wound. The wound was actually very scary, but she felt that Chen Chunsheng could recover on his own, so she did not want to spend money for a useless checkup.
