"Yu Wan! Don't try to put all the blame on me! You must have been involved in this matter, so don't try to make excuses."

Facing the sudden accusation, Yu Wan's voice seemed very weak and powerless, "I really don't know anything...

Shen Ying, it's useless for you to say all this because you don't have any substantial evidence."

Her tone was unusually low when she said this, as if all the energy had been drained out of her.

That's right, just as Yu Wan said, everything that happened between them was basically agreed upon through words, and every detail in the actual operation was handled by Shen Ying personally; therefore, during this process, Yu Wan did not have direct contact with any relevant persons or the matter itself.

At this moment, when all the truth came to light, Shen Ying suddenly realized: Perhaps from the very beginning, the reason why Yu Wan chose to watch instead of actively participating was not because she had enough trust in herself, but because she had already made up her mind - once the matter was exposed, she would deny everything and then put all the blame on herself?

"Okay, Shen Ying, can you let me go? If there really is a misunderstanding, why don't you go find Miss Yu and explain it clearly. Maybe she can forgive your behavior this time."

Yu Wan tried to persuade the other party to calm down.

However, Shen Ying's mind was in a mess at the moment. Apart from feeling that the person in front of her was trying every means to push her into the abyss, she had no other thoughts.

She believed that it was precisely because Yu Wan was unwilling to leave her any chance to turn things around that led to such a terrible result as the Wang Rong incident.

Shen Ying, whose emotions were out of control for a moment, suddenly raised her right hand and slapped the beautiful face so close to her without hesitation.

"Snap" - as a crisp sound broke through the quiet room, everyone was shocked, especially Shen Yu and Yu Wan, whose faces turned ashen in an instant.

Yu Xiao couldn't help but feel very surprised when he saw the dramatic scene happening in front of him - Oh my, it turns out there is such a wonderful story behind this?

"How could you do this to your girlfriend!"

Seeing his beloved woman being treated like this by his own sister, Shen Yu couldn't help but burst into a roar of anger.

Then he quickly pushed away the little sister who came forward to provoke him, hugged the injured girl tightly in his arms, and gently stroked the cheek that had just been hit.

"Lianlian, how do you feel now? Is it still painful?"

The words are full of meticulous care and concern for the loved one.

Shen Ying, who was lying on the ground, only then discovered that her wrists had been scratched and bruised. Blood seeped out along her skin and dyed the edge of her clothes red. The grief and anger in her heart almost made her collapse.

"My brother actually did this to me for an outsider... He's such a 'good' brother."

Yu Wan covered her painful cheek, tears welling up in her eyes, "Brother Yu..."

No one present expected such a sudden physical conflict.

After hearing the two men's confessions, the old lady became even more confused: "Now who can tell me who is the bad guy?"

Yu Xiao, with a playful expression, suggested, "Since things have come to this, why not just call the police and resolve it? Why bother beating around the bush with all this effort?"

Although she seemed relaxed and happy on the surface, she actually wanted to know very much how this family dispute would be resolved in the end; of course, she also had a strong curiosity about the woman named "Yu Wan".

At this moment, Grandma Shen, who had been standing by and silently observing the development of the situation, suddenly spoke up to keep her daughter-in-law who was about to leave, "Xiaoxiao, can't we discuss and resolve this issue privately? Although I know you have indeed suffered a lot of grievances, but for the entire Shen family..."

From the moment he entered the door, Yu Xiao had deeply realized how much this elder valued maintaining the family honor.

If the police had not intervened in the investigation, there might have been a chance to teach my niece a lesson privately to serve as a warning to others; but as long as the police lights were on, it meant that the next step would be left to the official authorities to decide.

"Can you please agree to this small request of mine? Xiaoxiao, please..."

The old man's trembling voice was filled with great earnestness. He held his daughter-in-law's soft and warm hands tightly with both hands as if he was afraid that she would turn around and leave in the next second.

Yu Xiao felt a pang in his heart, as if something had tugged at him.

Grandma Shen is the only person in the Shen family who treats her sincerely. This warmth and support occupies an irreplaceable place in her heart.

Looking at her grandmother's pleading eyes, she felt a little embarrassed. She wanted to teach the arrogant Shen Ying a lesson, but she didn't want to make the old woman who loved her so much sad.

Looking at Shen Ying sitting on the ground, crying her heart out, tears falling like beads from a broken string, and Yu Wan standing beside her pretending to be sympathetic, and Shen Yu looking extremely worried, Yu Xiao suddenly felt extremely complicated.

On the one hand, people feel indignant about the groundless injustice and malice; on the other hand, they are somewhat nervous about the impending conflict.

As for these three people, Yu Xiao always chooses to be tolerant and restrained, and tries to avoid direct disputes with them.

Whether facing Shen Ying's sarcastic verbal attacks or Yu Wan's tricks to embarrass her, in most cases, Yu Xiao was able to remain calm and did not easily lose her temper or do anything excessive in response to the provocation.

But things are different now.

They actually colluded with outsiders to plot against him. If he hadn't escaped by luck that day, it would probably be Yu Xiao himself lying there waiting to be buried, right?

Thinking of this, anger and fear surged into my heart like a tide, and this feeling made it difficult for anyone to accept it calmly.

Faced with such a situation, it is impossible for anyone to remain calm, and it would be strange not to be angry.

"Grandma, I've mentioned this to you many times. If I hadn't been lucky enough to dodge in time, I'm afraid we would be preparing for my funeral today instead of having this conversation. Ever since I married into the Shen family, I've always respected Young Master Lin and done my best to protect the family's interests and development. I've never done anything to harm the interests of the Lin family. Now that we're on the verge of divorce, why do they have to use such despicable means to deal with me?"

Yu Xiao expressed his true thoughts in a firm and slightly sad voice, which instantly made the atmosphere in the whole room freeze. Several parties looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

Grandma Shen trusted her grandson too much, and always felt that as the head of the family, he would be able to handle everything well.

Ever since I last talked to my grandson, I have been waiting for the final result, but I didn't expect the reality to be such an unimaginable situation.
