The ancient war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in a wealthy family

The "victory" at the dinner party was short-lived. Although it tore off the hypocritical masks of Zhou Yuanfang's relatives and the person in charge, Wang, rumors are like viruses, spreading faster than the speed of light and their lethality is comparable to that of biological weapons.

I felt like a walking target, with people pointing and whispering about me wherever I went.

Those so-called ladies avoided me as if I might be infected with some virus.

Haha, they were all so enthusiastic towards me before, but now they act so condescending. It’s really a big face-changing scene. The Oscars owe them a little golden man!

The feeling of being suspected is really unpleasant, even more disgusting than eating a fly.

I tried to keep smiling and told myself to be strong and graceful and not be defeated by these rumors.

But secretly, I really want to grab those gossipers and ask them harshly: "What evidence do you have? Why do you slander me?"

Fortunately, Zhan Yu is by my side.

This man is simply my guardian angel!

Not only did he support me publicly, he also actively worked on my behalf within the family, collecting evidence and explaining my innocence to his family.

He is like a big tree, protecting me from wind and rain and making me feel safe.

Gradually, the family's attitude began to change.

My mother-in-law no longer mocked me, and my father-in-law began to take the initiative to care about my life.

I know this is all thanks to Zhan Yu.

Seeing him working so hard for me, I felt both touched and distressed.

"Wife, don't worry, everything will be fine." Zhan Yu hugged me gently and comforted me softly.

His embrace was warm and strong, making me feel extremely safe.

I hugged him tightly, feeling the warmth from his body, as if all the haze had dissipated.

"Yeah," I raised my head, looked into his eyes, and said firmly.

Just when I thought things were getting better, my phone rang.

It was Sun’s friend who called.

"Hello? What's going on?" I answered the phone and asked in a relaxed tone.

"You...you'd better be mentally prepared..." Sun's voice trembled a little, as if something bad had happened.

"What's wrong? Tell me!" My heart sank suddenly and a bad premonition came over me.

"Zhou's distant relative...she..." Sun hesitated and couldn't make out what he meant for a long time.

"What happened to her?!" I asked anxiously.

"She...she has started spreading new rumors again..." Sun's voice became smaller and smaller, almost inaudible.

My breathing stagnated, and a surge of anger instantly surged from the bottom of my heart...

"She..." I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists.

"What rumor did she spread again?!" I took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in my heart.

This woman is as tenacious as a cockroach, her vitality is so strong that it's outrageous!

"She said...she said that you exposed her this time to cover up a bigger conspiracy, and that you...you are the real mastermind behind all this..." Sun's voice became smaller and smaller, like the hum of a mosquito.

I almost vomited blood!

What kind of logic is this?

I exposed her, but became the mastermind?

I give full marks to this operation!

Don't be afraid of her pride!

"Haha, fine, if she wants to play, I will play with her." I sneered, with a cold light flashing in my eyes.

I'm not someone you can easily mess with!

Zhan Yu held my hand and gave me a reassuring look.

"Don't be impulsive, let's take our time."

"Don't worry, I know my limits." I gave him a confident smile.

Want to bring me down?

There are no doors!

I didn't explain or defend myself as they expected.

To explain is to cover up, and to cover up is the fact.

I won’t be fooled by this kind of elementary school logic!

I directly invited those ladies to participate in a charity event - to help rebuild schools for children in mountainous areas.

I know that these ladies love this kind of "high-end" activities the most, which can show off their "love" and "social status".

On the day of the event, I changed into a simple T-shirt and jeans, with no makeup on, and worked with the volunteers to move bricks and transport cement. I didn't have the airs of a rich family's daughter-in-law at all.

Those ladies, all wearing gorgeous dresses and high heels, stood aside and pointed and talked, with an arrogant look as if saying, "I'm here to do charity, not to work."

I ignored their ridicule and contempt, and just kept doing my own thing.

Sweat soaked my clothes and dust covered my face, but I felt extremely fulfilled and happy.

Some bystanders saw my sincere and positive performance, and they liked my post and shared my story on social platforms.

Gradually, the tide of public opinion began to turn, and more and more people began to believe in my innocence.

And when those ladies saw me gradually turning the situation around, their faces turned ugly.

Lady Li walked up to me and said sarcastically, "Miss Bai is such a great actress. It's a shame she didn't go into acting."

I raised my head and looked at her, a sneer on my face.

"Mrs. Li, you're too kind. My acting skills are far inferior to some people's."

Mrs. Li's face froze, she glared at me fiercely, and turned away.

I looked at her back and sneered in my heart. The fun has just begun.

Just then, my phone rang...

An unknown number...

"Hello?" I answered the phone and asked calmly.

A deep voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ms. Bai, let's talk..." "Hello?" I answered the phone. My tone was as calm as if I was ordering takeout, but alarm bells were ringing in my heart. This feeling was like suddenly receiving a call from an NPC (non-player character) while playing a script-killing game. It was very exciting!

A low, slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone, as if it had been smoked by cheap cigarettes: "Miss Bai, let's talk..." This is the standard villain's opening line, identification completed!

I almost blurted out, "What to talk about? Love?" Fortunately, I braked in time and maintained my cool personality.

"Who are you?" I pretended not to know, thinking in my heart: Show your identity quickly, let me see what kind of monster you are!

"Haha, Miss Bai, you're such a forgetful person. You've forgotten me so quickly?" There was a hint of sarcasm in the other person's tone. This familiar feeling...

Is it Wu Tabloid reporter?

"Oh, it's Reporter Wu," I said, my tone full of teasing. "Why, haven't you made up any explosive news recently?"

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds, and then the slightly flustered voice of Wu Xiaobao reporter came: "Ms. Bai, I... I was wrong. I shouldn't have accepted the money..."

Wait, what's going on?

The villain's style suddenly changed?

I haven't even used my ultimate move yet, and he's already started repenting?

This script is wrong!

Before I could react, reporter Wu Xiaobao spilled the beans, revealing the entire cause and effect of the matter, including how Zhou Yuanfang's relatives bribed him, how they fabricated false reports, and even the transfer records were explained in detail.

Wow, this is directly selling out Zhou Yuanfang’s relatives!

I suppressed my laughter and replied calmly, "Oh? Really? Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Reporter Wu."

After hanging up the phone, the corners of my mouth curled up slightly. This reversal came too suddenly, it was simply a god-like assist!

It seems that this drama is getting more and more exciting.

Just as I was about to call Zhan Yu to share this "good news", the door of the social club was suddenly pushed open, and Zhou Yuanfang's relative walked in aggressively, pointing at my nose and started cursing: "Bai..." Before she finished her words, a figure blocked my way...

Before Zhou Yuanfang's relative could even utter the word "for nothing...", he was frightened by Zhan Yu's sharp gaze and swallowed it back.

Tsk tsk, the wife-protecting maniac is online.

He stood in front of me like a mountain, emitting a cold aura that kept strangers away.

I secretly poked my head out from behind him and made a face at Zhou Yuanfang's relative. Humph, you want to bully me?

no way!

"Aunt Zhou, if you have something to say, please talk to me nicely. Don't touch my wife." Zhan Yu's tone was as cold as if it was filled with ten thousand years of ice. Hearing it, a warm current surged in my heart.

Hehe, my husband is awesome!

Zhou Yuanfang's relative's face turned pale and blue, probably because he didn't expect Zhan Yu to protect me like this.

She stiffened her neck and wanted to say something, but I spoke first: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am here today to clarify one thing for you!" I took out my cell phone and played the recording of reporter Wu Xiaobao, which clearly recorded how he was bribed by Zhou Yuanfang's relatives and how he fabricated rumors.

Wow, the scene exploded instantly!

The ladies were whispering to each other, looking at Zhou's distant relatives with eyes full of suspicion and contempt.

Those ladies who had mocked me before began to waver at this moment.

I struck while the iron was hot and took out the evidence I had collected before, including some photos, chat records, etc., and showed them to everyone one by one.

Now that the truth was out, Zhou Yuanfang's relative's face turned completely pale, and he wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

"Facts speak louder than words." I smiled slightly, looked around, and spoke in a firm and confident tone.

Some ladies began to apologize to me, saying that they had misunderstood me before.

I graciously accepted their apology. After all, who doesn't have the nature of a spectator?

I thought the matter ended here, but unexpectedly, a familiar voice suddenly rang out: "Ms. Bai, even if you clarify these, it can't prove that you didn't participate in that fake charity project!" Wang, the person in charge of the charity project?

Why is he here?

My heart skipped a beat, and I felt that things were not that simple...

He squeezed through the crowd with a sinister smile on his face. He held a document in his hand and raised it high: "This document can prove that Miss Bai is inextricably linked to this fake charity project!"

Before I could react, Zhan Yu snatched the document from his hand, quickly glanced through it, and his face suddenly changed.

He suddenly raised his head, looked at me with complicated eyes, and then...

Handed me the document.

"See for yourself." His voice was low and no emotion could be heard.

I took the document with trembling hands, and just one look at it made my blood freeze.

This document...

It’s actually my signature!
