Reborn and married in a swapped marriage, my aloof husband is too ruthless.

Mr. Xu's face was ashen, and veins bulged on his forehead, but he still managed to maintain his last shred of dignity.

He pointed at Su Jinxin and roared hoarsely, "You vicious woman! You're clearly jealous of Xiaoxiao and deliberately framed her! This letter must be a forgery!"

Su Jinxin's heart sank, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

She knew that the Xu family would stop at nothing to smear her in order to save face.

Is all her effort ultimately going to be in vain?

Yan Chengan gripped Su Jinxin's hand tightly, feeling the warmth in his palm, which gave her a sense of strength.

He was about to speak when Su Jinxin gently shook her head to stop him.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

A direct confrontation with the Xu family would only result in mutual destruction; she had to find another way out.

Just then, a heavily made-up woman, still charming, swayed her hips as she walked in.

It was none other than the famous brothel madam in the city—Aunt Hong.

The moment she appeared, all eyes were on her.

Aunt Hong walked up to Su Jinxin, gave a slight curtsy, and said in a sweet voice, "Miss Su, I have already taken care of the matter you instructed me to handle."

Su Jinxin smiled slightly, turned to look at Xu's father, and said in an icy tone: "Mr. Xu, you say that I framed Su Xiaoxiao, then why don't you ask Aunt Hong, whose credit is it for Mr. Xu's romantic affairs in the brothel?"

Aunt Hong covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sweeping contemptuously over Mr. Xu and Su Xiaoxiao. She slowly began to speak, "Young Master Xu was quite the spendthrift when he was with me! At first, he said it was to curry favor with Miss Su, but later..." Aunt Hong paused deliberately, watching Mr. Xu's increasingly grim expression, before continuing, "Later, he gambled away all his money and racked up a mountain of debt, so he used Miss Su as collateral..."

Aunt Hong's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's ears. The guests present whispered among themselves, their gazes towards the Xu family father and daughter filled with disdain and mockery.

Mr. Xu's face turned from green to white, then from white to purple. Finally, he slumped weakly into his chair, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

Su Xiaoxiao's face was deathly pale, and her whole body was trembling. She looked at Xu's father in disbelief, her lips trembling, but she couldn't say a word.

Looking at Su Xiaoxiao's miserable state, Su Jinxin felt no pity, only boundless pleasure. She knew this was just the beginning...

Yan Cheng'an looked at Su Jinxin, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes. He whispered in her ear, "Jinxin..."

Aunt Hong's bombshell shattered the Xu family's last shred of dignity.

Mr. Xu slumped into a chair, tears streaming down his face, filled with remorse.

He valued his reputation throughout his life, but in the end, it was all ruined by his own daughter and good-for-nothing son.

His finger trembled as he pointed at Su Xiaoxiao, shouting hoarsely, "You wicked child! You wicked child!"

Su Xiaoxiao was struck dumb. She never imagined that her carefully crafted lie would be so easily exposed.

She looked around in horror at the people who had once fawned over her, now filled with contempt and mockery.

She was like a stray dog, with nowhere to run.

In an effort to salvage their reputation, the Xu family had no choice but to acknowledge Su Xiaoxiao's misdeeds and expel her from the family.

Su Xiaoxiao's reputation in the city was completely ruined, and everyone avoided her and gossiped about her.

Her beauty, which she was once so proud of, has now become her greatest shame.

Looking at Su Xiaoxiao's miserable state, Su Jinxin felt no pity, only boundless pleasure.

She had once vowed to make Su Xiaoxiao and her accomplices pay the price, and now she had finally done it.

Yan Chengan held Su Jinxin tightly in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Jinxin, you did very well." The warmth of his palm seeped through the thin clothes and onto Su Jinxin's skin, making her feel incredibly safe.

Su Jinxin leaned against Yan Chengan's chest, feeling his heartbeat, and their feelings for each other grew stronger.

She knew that without Yan Cheng'an's support, she wouldn't have gotten to where she is today.

“Cheng’an,” Su Jinxin raised her head and looked into Yan Cheng’an’s deep eyes, “thank you for always being by my side.”

Yan Chengan smiled gently and kissed Su Jinxin's forehead. "Silly girl, we are husband and wife, we should support each other."

Just as the two were immersed in a sweet atmosphere, a venomous gaze, like a poisonous snake, tightly coiled around Su Jinxin.

Hidden in the crowd, Su Xiaoxiao glared fiercely at Su Jinxin, her fists clenched so tightly that her nails dug deep into her flesh, drawing blood... A chilling smile curled at the corner of her lips as she silently uttered two words: "Su Jinxin..."

Su Xiaoxiao was stung by the contemptuous looks of the crowd. She was unwilling to admit defeat and even more unwilling to be trampled underfoot by Su Jinxin.

"Su Jinxin, what are you so smug about! I won't let you get away with this!" she roared, her voice sharp and unpleasant like a broken gong, her eyes burning with a fierce hatred that seemed to want to devour Su Jinxin completely.

However, when faced with Su Xiaoxiao's threat, Su Jinxin simply smiled faintly, her eyes full of contempt.

"Su Xiaoxiao, bring on whatever tricks you have up your sleeve, I'm ready to take them on." Her tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable air of authority, as if everything was under her control.

The onlookers shook their heads and sighed as they watched Su Xiaoxiao's crazy actions.

It's truly heartbreaking to see the once glamorous second young lady of the Su family reduced to such a state.

Su Jinxin's business partners admired her even more after seeing how easily she resolved the threat from the Xu family.

They all stepped forward to offer their congratulations, their words filled with admiration and appreciation.

Su Jinxin's business empire became even more secure as a result. Even though the Xu family was resentful, they dared not have any thoughts of revenge, for fear of getting burned again.

Su Xiaoxiao lost her status in the Xu family and had no place to stand in the city. She was like a tiger with its teeth pulled, no longer the arrogant and domineering person she used to be.

Looking at her disheveled appearance, Su Jinxin felt no pleasure as she had imagined; instead, she felt an indescribable heaviness.

She knew that Su Xiaoxiao's hatred would not be easily extinguished, which planted a new suspense for the story to come.

In the stillness of the night, Su Jinxin stood by the window, gazing at the bright moonlight outside, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

Yan Cheng'an walked behind her and gently embraced her.

"What are you thinking about?" His gentle voice rang in Su Jinxin's ear.

“I think that although Su Xiaoxiao lost, she won’t give up.” Su Jinxin’s voice carried a hint of worry.

Yan Chengan gently stroked Su Jinxin's hair and comforted her, "Don't worry, I will always be by your side."

Just then, Su Jinxin's trusted maidservant hurried over and whispered a few words in her ear.

Su Jinxin's expression changed slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"The Su family's steward?" she muttered to herself, her tone tinged with helplessness and frustration. "It seems things are far from over..."
