Xing Guozhi and Huo Qinyu were even more shocked.

Even Jiang Yi who had remained calm the whole time was stunned. She glanced at her daughter and saw that Su Yanyan looked dazed and pale. “Yuyun, you should not say these things so casually. Yanyan, she-”

“Aunt,” Xing Yuyun interrupted her, “I have already spoken to Yanyan about this. The reason I came here today is to make all these things clear to the elders.”

“Nonsense!” How could Su Xueqin possibly sit back and take this?! He pointed at Xing Yuyun and snarled, “You brat! What do you take Yanyan for? What are you treating the Su family as? Isn’t it bad enough that you hurt one of my granddaughters? Now you’re thinking of backing out of this marriage too?!”

Jiang Yi said gently, “Yuyun, my daughter is still young. She is ignorant and does not know how to be considerate-”

“It has nothing to do with it,” Xing Yuyun cut Jiang Yi off again and continued coldly, “I just feel that the both of us are not compatible.”

“Then who are you compatible with? Is it Su Wanwan?” Su Yanyan blurted out suddenly.

Xing Yuyun didn’t respond, an indifferent expression on his face. He did not even look at her.

In fact, ever since he entered the Su family mansion today, he had not looked her in her eye.

Su Yanyan’s anger instantly ignited and she turned to Su Wanwan and screeched, “It’s your fault! This is all because of you! Do you really have to do this? You already know that Brother Yun does not like you but he does not want to hurt you because he feels guilty, so why are you still refusing to let him go? You said that you do not care about him but you are still secretly trying to hook up with him! Don’t you think that’s shameless?”

“Su Yanyan, isn’t that ironic?” Su Wanwan’s tone was cold as she mocked her. “You were the one who robbed me of my fiancée. I was kind enough not to hold it against the both of you, but you still have the guts to insult me and play the victim? True enough – a slut will always be hypocritical and unreasonable.”

“A slut? Could I possibly be sluttier than you? Do you dare admit that you were fooling around last night?”

“That’s none of your business.” Su Wanwan could not be bothered to continue arguing with the likes of her. “Your future father and mother-in-law are here, so shouldn’t you pay more attention to your behaviour?”

To her, Su Yanyan was just like a wild dog who would bark at anyone it saw. She had initially been careful of her behaviour on account of the elders, but now that she was getting dumped by Xing Yuyun, it seemed as though she could not hold it in anymore.

Su Yanyan simply stood there, her body trembling in anger.

Jiang Yi tried to pull her aside but Su Yanyan pushed her away. After that, Su Yanyan rushed towards the coffee table and flipped through the newspaper on the table.

As everyone watched, she pointed at the newspaper on the table and sneered, “Your indecent acts with a man have already appeared in the newspaper and everyone in Nanchang already knows about your scandal! Su Wanwan, the Su family’s reputation has already been completely ruined by you!”

“Yanyan, what nonsense are you talking about?!” Su Xueqin bellowed.

“I am not talking nonsense! She went to a club last night and was fooling around with a man! Everything has been photographed and it’s in the newspaper! You can look at it yourself if you don’t believe me!”

Su Wanwan was the first person to walk over and pick up the newspaper.

A line of bold red letters stood out: ‘Inappropriate acts suspected to have occurred at Nanchang’s top entertainment outlet!’

When she looked down, there was a report interspersed with several pictures of a police check and the arrest of a suspect. One of the pictures showed Su Wanwan and a waiter standing inside an elevator.

“What does this prove?” Su Wanwan threw the newspaper back at Su Yanyan and scoffed, “I went to the club to watch a movie with Weiyi last night. We had a little too much to drink so we decided to book a VIP room upstairs to rest there for the night. You do not have any solid evidence but you are making assumptions based on a picture of me standing inside an elevator? There must be something wrong with your brain. You really wish that I had been involved in a scandal, right?”

“There can’t be smoke without a fire! Why would anyone take a picture of you if you did not do anything wrong or indecent?” Su Yanyan continued stubbornly.

Su Wanwan realized that she was getting angry, so she calmed herself down and repeated slowly, “I was with Weiyi the whole night-”

“Mo Weiyi is your best friend, of course she will speak up for you!”

The living room was extremely silent at this point. Nobody expected that things would turn out like this.

Su Yuntang had a gloomy expression on his face.

Their family was in chaos, and the Xing family was here to witness everything!

He glared at Su Wanwan, his face red. His lips were pressed together tightly, and he was shaking in anger.

He should have fought harder with Su Xueqin from the very beginning. He should not have allowed this menace to stain the Su family!

For the past twenty years, she had been a thorn in his side. Whenever he looked at her, he would be reminded of his past.

He should have strangled her to death back then. Everything would have been fine now if he did.

“Sir,” Aunty Yang suddenly called out weakly, “We have a guest.”

Aunty Yang did not dare move. There was a tall man standing right behind her.
