Wu Hua's words caused Aunt Zuo's expression to change drastically.

Suddenly, she stood up and slammed her hand hard on the table in front of her.

"Wu Xixi, you've gone too far."

Aunt Zuo's outburst startled Wu Hua.

Aunt Zuo could no longer hold back and started cursing at Wu Hua.

"Wu Xixi, don't you know your place? Even if my Ah Feng hadn't married you yet, do I need you to tell me how to behave?"

"Do you think I'll believe what you say based on just a few words? The capital isn't far from Nanluo City. I can easily find out what you've been doing with a little inquiry."

"Even if Jian He doesn't tell me about the shameful things you've done, I can still find out clearly."

"What kind of curse did Jian He cast on Cheng Yan? I think it was you who cast a curse on our A-Feng! You want to marry our A-Feng? I will never agree to it."

Aunt Zuo had been by Cheng Gang's side for many years and was known as a virtuous wife. She had seen through Wu Hua's little schemes long ago.

Wu Hua, whose secrets had been exposed by Aunt Zuo without any mercy, was losing face. Just as she was about to leave, Zuo Feng, who had just compensated Jian He, hurriedly arrived.

Seeing that Aunt Zuo was so angry, Zuo Feng gave Wu Hua a cold look and said, "You go first!"

Wu Hua didn't miss any opportunity to impress Zuo Feng: "Ah Feng... I just came to tell Auntie the truth, but I didn't expect her to be so angry. I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Zuo Feng had just returned from mediation and was already suspicious of Wu Hua. In addition, Wu Hua had angered Aunt Zuo to such an extent that his goodwill towards Wu Hua had disappeared.

He frowned and said to Wu Hua again, "I told you to go first. I'll come find you later."

Wu Hua then pursed her lower lip and put on a look of great injustice before agreeing.

She said, "Okay, you take care of Auntie first, I'll wait for you."

Carrying her small bag, Wu Hua hurried away, and as she turned her head, a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

She was destined to marry Zuo Feng. Even if Aunt Zuo disagreed, it wouldn't stop her from becoming Mrs. Zuo.

Only after marrying Zuo Feng will she have enough power to fight Jian He. She wants Jian He to know that she, Wu Hua, is a woman who will not be overwhelmed by life.

She is not a woman that Jian He can bully at will.

She had to earn back the humiliation that Jian He had caused her, bit by bit.

After Wu Hua left, Zuo Feng finally spoke to Aunt Zuo.

"Mom, look at you, why are you getting angry with a little girl like Xixi?"

Zuo Feng's words contained a lot of bias towards Wu Hua, and Aunt Zuo's face couldn't help but turn cold.

"Little girl? Ah Feng, in your eyes, is she just a little girl? I think she's not a simple woman." Aunt Zuo shook off Zuo Feng's hand that was supporting her, without even a hint of a smile.

Zuo Feng shrugged indifferently.

He said, "But I don't think she's too complicated... She's like a little grass that's been battered countless times; she just wants to grow."

Zuo Feng's words surprised Aunt Zuo.

This was the first time she had heard such words from Zuo Feng. It seemed that Wu Hua did have some ability.

"Just want to grow stronger? If she continues to grow stronger, she'll start interfering in the Cheng family's affairs. She even said that Jian He cast a spell on Cheng Yan. In my opinion, she's the one who cast a spell on you."

Aunt Zuo gave Zuo Feng a very blunt reminder.

When Zuo Feng heard Aunt Zuo mention Jian He, and recalled the expression on her face when she took the 100 million yuan check from his hand after the mediation, he felt no goodwill towards Jian He at all.

“Mom, I think Xixi is right. Jian He, that woman, had an ulterior motive for getting close to Cheng Yan.”

Zuo Feng's words seemed to have crossed Aunt Zuo's bottom line. She suddenly turned her head and began to warn Zuo Feng with a serious expression.

"Zuo Feng, watch your words. Neither you nor I have the right to interfere in Cheng Yan's affairs."

"Even if Jian He contacted Cheng Yan with some ulterior motive, that's Cheng Yan's own business, and it's none of your place to stand here and point fingers."

“If we anger Uncle Cheng, none of us will have a good outcome.”

After saying this, Aunt Zuo turned and left, giving Zuo Feng no chance to explain.

She had to rush to the hospital. Cheng Yan was injured, and as his stepmother, she had to convey her concern for him no matter what.

Zuo Feng watched his aunt's departing figure with some helplessness. He couldn't understand why his mother and Cheng Gang, who were clearly husband and wife, always had a sense of estrangement like a superior-subordinate relationship when they got along.

It was precisely because of this alienation that he always felt unable to integrate into this family.

Jian He sat in Cheng Yan's hospital room, taking care of Cheng Yan while handling company work on her phone.

The Jian Group has just started developing in Beijing, and there are many things to worry about.

Fortunately, Mason was quite helpful and could share some of the burden with Jian He; otherwise, Jian He would have been incredibly busy.

After taking care of Cheng Yan and having dinner, the two sat together and chatted. Looking at Jian He's face, Cheng Yan couldn't help but let out a sigh.

He said, "I really want to stay with you like this forever, and never be apart."

Cheng Yan's words made Jian He chuckle.

She teased Cheng Yan, "From what you're saying, you're getting addicted to being hospitalized?"

"I don't want to stay here with you. It smells like disinfectant everywhere. Even if we're never apart, we have to find a place with a better environment."

Cheng Yan sighed softly, reached out and took Jian He's hand, as if only in this way could he feel at ease keeping Jian He by his side.

The two chatted casually. Jian He tried several times to steer the conversation toward Tu Qing, but she felt it was inappropriate and didn't continue.

As evening approached, Jian He planned to stay with Cheng Yan at the hospital for another night. Unexpectedly, Cheng Gang arrived with an executive jacket.

To give the father and son some time together, Jian He made an excuse and left the hospital.

She knew that Cheng Gang had come to see Cheng Yan tonight only because of Tu Qing.

Unable to withstand the pressure from his old friends, Cheng Gang wanted to talk to Cheng Yan about marrying Tu Qing.

If the banquet chooses Tu Qing, then Jian He will be eliminated.

With this heavy heart, Jian He returned home. Everything at home was as before. Jian Qingshan was recovering, while Rui Bao was holding his computer, typing away nonstop.

When she entered, Jian Qingshan and Ruibao both stopped what they were doing.

Jian Qingshan staggered to Jian He's side and asked worriedly, "..."
