Her mood was different. Yesterday, Zeng Fang only felt ironic and ridiculous. If she really cared about her, she would have rushed out as soon as she received her call. Would she still have time to put on makeup?
Zeng Fang calmly withdrew her hand and said coldly, "I didn't know what you wanted to drink, so I ordered you a cup of tea."
Only then did Yunyao notice a cup of cold green tea on the table, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
"Zeng Fang, why did you suddenly come to see me?"
"It's something."
Zeng Fang looked at her with emotionless eyes, "Yunyao, let's make a deal."
Before coming, Yunyao had thought a lot, maybe Zeng Fang would ask her to keep a secret, or maybe seek comfort from her, but she never expected that Zeng Fang would go straight to the point and want to make a deal with her.
But she could probably guess what the deal Zeng Fang was referring to, it was nothing more than trying to buy her off with benefits.
Yunyao said confidently: "Zeng Fang, don't worry, I haven't told anyone about you, and I won't..."
"Then how did your dad know?" Zeng Fang interrupted her lightly.
Yunyao quickly explained, "I was too anxious at the time, worried that something would happen to you, but don't worry, only my dad knows about this..."
"Where is your mother? Doesn't she know? She even came to my house."
Yunyao: "..."
Being slapped in the face repeatedly, Yunyao was extremely embarrassed and had no way to defend herself.
"Yunyao, you should know how important the reputation of chastity is to a girl. If this matter is spread, I don't want to live anymore. By then, if I say something that I shouldn't say, Yunyao,
I believe you can understand me."
"Zeng Fang, why can't I understand you?"
Zeng Fang stopped beating around the bush and directly told the story of how Yun Yao stole money, caused Huang Yu's marriage to be ruined, and indirectly caused Yang Xinghua to break her leg.
Yunyao's expression also changed when she heard that Yang Xinghua broke her leg when she went to the mountains to dig herbs to pay off her debts.
Once word of the money theft spreads, her character will be questioned. That's okay. After all, there is a reason for stealing the money. But if you add the crime of almost killing her elders, it will be unfaithful and unfilial. By then, she will
She is bound to become the white wolf eye that everyone despises. Not to mention her engagement with the Su family, she may no longer be able to gain a foothold in the upper circles of Jiang City.
"Zeng Fang, how do you know this? Yun Mo told you, right?!"
Zeng Fang lowered her eyelashes and did not directly answer Yun Yao's question, "Yun Yao, if I live a good life, I will naturally keep your past secret."
Yun Yao was angry and anxious, "Zeng Fang, don't believe Yun Mo. She just doesn't like me. Don't let her take advantage of you!"
"It doesn't matter whether you take advantage of it or not. I only have this request now. I have a way to survive. I will naturally leave a way for you to survive. We can all live better. Otherwise, we will perish together."
"What if someone else spreads the news? Do I have to be blamed too?"
"Then I don't care. Anyway, if I can't survive, I will definitely find someone to support me. Yunyao, if you want to blame, blame yourself for your misfortune. No, it should be me who is unlucky. I shouldn't have known you.
I shouldn’t even get close to you!”
"Zeng Fang, you are too unreasonable. How can you blame me for this?"
"Isn't it your fault? Didn't you drag me to Ling's house? Didn't you leave me alone and run away when you sensed the problem? Didn't you just stand by and watch and do nothing to save me?
Yunyao, I don’t want to say anything more now that the matter has come to this point. As I said before, as long as this matter is not spread out, I will naturally help you hide your unhappiness. Otherwise, I don’t care if it was spread by you or not.
I'm only looking for you."
"Zeng Fang, you really disappoint me. If you hang out with Yun Mo, you will regret it sooner or later!"
After saying this, Yun Yao left angrily.
Seeing the private room door being slammed shut, Zeng Fang's straight back suddenly bent, and she collapsed on the chair like a deflated rubber ball.
After a while, the private room door was knocked again.
Yun Mo opened the door and came in. Zeng Fang subconsciously stood up and went to greet her, her expression very excited, "I did everything you said."
Yun Mo smiled and nodded, "Well, how do you feel?"
Zeng Fang let out a breath, "It's not as difficult as I imagined, but can this really stop the rumors?"
"I don't dare to say it's 100%, but it can to a large extent prevent people from deliberately spreading and slandering you. You were with Yunyao when the incident happened. As long as she is willing to conceal it for you and be thorough, even if outsiders hear the news, they will not
Just treat it as a rumor.
Zeng Fang, this matter is not your fault. You were just accidentally bitten by a vicious dog. There is no need to feel inferior, let alone belittle yourself. If anyone dares to make fun of you or humiliate you, you will slap her hard.
Until she gets scared when she sees you and doesn’t dare to talk about it anymore.”
"But……"
"It is indeed wrong to hit someone, but to allow others to trample on your wounds is to be cruel to yourself. Zeng Fang, remember this sentence, some things are not worthy of occupying your emotions. Life is short, have fun and enjoy yourself.
"
Zeng Fang woke up from her dream, her face lit up with excitement, "Yunmo, you are right."
"Yunmo, what should we do next?"
Zeng Fang didn't realize that the way she looked at Yun Mo was sparkling, like a little girl looking at her idol, full of admiration and trust.
Yun Mo snapped her fingers and said, "Of course we will find the culprit to settle the score."
Yun Mo took Zeng Fang to the hotel where she was staying, and the two of them stayed in the room to discuss for a long time. After that, Zeng Fang went home, and Yun Mo went back to the Ling family courtyard early the next morning.
Li Li was not at home and probably went out to buy groceries. Ling Chunhua was cleaning at home.
"Spring flowers."
"Auntie!"
Seeing Yun Mo, Ling Chunhua threw down the broom and ran over happily, hugging her legs affectionately and acting coquettishly.
Compared with the shyness before, Ling Chunhua was much more relaxed in front of her now.
Yun Mo touched the other party's soft and furry head, and like magic, took out a pair of pink bow headbands. There was a string of beautiful tassel beads hanging on the bow, which made a crisp sound when shaking.
Probably due to malnutrition, Ling Chunhua's hair is sparse and very soft. Li Li usually doesn't care much about her daughter. Every day, Ling Chunhua combs her hair by herself and uses red wool to tie a ponytail behind her head.
.
While running outside these days, Yun Mo noticed that many little girls on the street were wearing such headbands. She thought it suited Ling Chunhua very well, so she bought a pair.
"Hey, this is for you."
Ling Chunhua stared at the hairband for a long time, then slowly put her little hands behind her back, looking at Yun Mo with her big black grape-like eyes, "Auntie, I don't want it."
"Why not? Don't you like it?"
"This costs money. I can't always spend my aunt's money."
Yun Mo was very pleased and distressed by her little niece's understanding.
