After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Ye Wanyin felt somewhat ashamed and indignant that Ye Sanqing had seen through her thoughts.

Yes, she was trying to take the opportunity to fall into Sheng Hanyu's arms. Although Ye Sanqing seemed to have gotten there first, it was still uncertain who would win. Sheng Hanyu's presence here was certainly an unexpected bonus.

So she had planned it all out when she stood up. She just needed to take the opportunity to fall down, and any man would be unable to resist the urge to protect her when he saw her looking so weak and helpless.

As a result, that damned Ye Sanqing exposed her right away, how was she supposed to continue acting?

However, Ye Wanyin was experienced, and when one plan failed, another came up. Ignoring the fact that Tong Wuyu was only wrapped in a blanket and was still soaking wet, she threw herself on her and cried, "Wuyu, I treat you like a sister, how could you... how could you do this to me? I know you have feelings for Ye Ge, but I'm getting married to him soon, how could you do this? You... how could you do this to me?"

As she spoke, she covered her face and began to cry as if she were very sad, but with her other hand, she pinched Tong Wuyu hard from an angle where no one could see.

Before the effects of the medicine had worn off, a bucket of cold water was poured over Tong Wuyu's head, causing her a severe headache. Upon hearing Ye Wanyin's words, she instinctively tried to retort, but Ye Wanyin pinched her back to her senses.

By now, she understood perfectly well that their scheme against Ye Sanqing had backfired, and they had been outmaneuvered instead. It was simply a matter of being outmatched, and there was nothing more to say. But she hadn't expected Ye Wanyin to immediately smear her reputation; she hadn't said anything like that before they arrived!

Ye Wanyin's words implied that she was unaware of the situation and wanted Tong Wuyu to admit that she had feelings for Cheng Yanye, which was why she did such a thing.

Tong Wuyu thought about it again and realized that it actually made some sense. First of all, this way the matter could be defined as a matter between her and Cheng Yanye. Ye Sanqing was so difficult to deal with, and if she continued to drag her into it, she would definitely not get anything good. It was better to just admit it.

Furthermore, this was the first time Ye Wanyin had so explicitly asked her for a favor, which could be considered handing her leverage, right? And... who knows, Cheng Yanye might have other opportunities.

All of Ye Wanyin's girlfriends had witnessed how good Cheng Yanye had been to her when they were dating. Besides, the fact that the man in question today was Cheng Yanye meant that Ye Wanyin didn't actually value him at all.

So... if Ye Wanyin can be next to Cheng Yanye, why can't it be me?

After thinking it through, Tong Wuyu said, "I'm sorry, Wanwan, I was just blinded by love... I love him so much, and with you two getting married soon, I have even less of a chance. In my anxiety, I... I'm sorry..."

Her words were so sincere that anyone who didn't know the inside story would think she was deeply in love with Cheng Yanye.

Ye Sanqing commented in a low voice: "If you're asking about acting skills, who's the best?"

Sheng Hanyu subconsciously replied, "There's always a king among kings?"

Ye Wanyin was furious when she heard them whispering. Couldn't they cooperate a little in such a serious setting?!

If she weren't currently preoccupied with these two, she would definitely have rushed into their midst.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Cheng Yanye come downstairs, dressed neatly, and continued her sobbing: "Wuyu... I'm sorry, although I treat you like a sister, I will never give up Ye-ge to you... My love for him is no less than yours! But what you did today, how can I face him? How can I be your sister?"

Ye Sanqing: "Wow, you have quite a lot of sisters."

Sheng Hanyu couldn't help but laugh out loud, but with his mask on, people around him could only see the corners of his eyes curving up.

Ye Wanyin was very annoyed by the repeated interruptions to her emotions. Just as she was thinking about how to retaliate against Ye Sanqing, Cheng Yanye shook off Ye Siqing who was supporting him, rushed over, and knelt in front of her: "Wanwan, you have to believe me!"

He straightened up, pointed at Tong Wuyu, and cursed, "You woman, you're disgusting! If you can't have me, you'll have to have my body! Your thoughts are so vicious, and Wanwan even considered you a sister!"

Cheng Yanye gradually came to his senses while being rinsed off, and even somewhat savored the experience, still thinking that Ye Wanyin was the one he had slept with. He didn't understand how he was interrupted, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Ning Leyi drop the showerhead and drag Cha Ziwen out.

Then Ye Siqing looked disappointed: "I still consider you my brother-in-law, how could you treat my sister like this?" But despite his words, he still found some clean pajamas for Cheng Yanye to wear.

Cheng Yanye was completely baffled. Since he was going to be the brother-in-law, what was wrong with sleeping with his sister? Wasn't it just a matter of time?

Ye Siqing was even more disappointed to see him like this. "How could you sleep with another woman in front of your sister? I know men are all fickle, but you're like this before you're even married. What will you be like after you get married? You've gone too far!"

Cheng Yanye finally understood that it wasn't Ye Wanyin from before, but who was it? Ye Siqing turned her face away and refused to look at him, so he had no choice but to go downstairs. However, he slipped and fell after taking just one step.

Ye Siqing had no choice but to help him down the stairs. As soon as they reached the top, she heard a heartfelt confession from downstairs.

Before seeing Ye Sanqing standing safely to the side, Cheng Yanye had a sliver of hope: Could that woman be Ye Sanqing?

If that's the case, he wouldn't mind too much.

Since they've already slept together, he'll definitely take responsibility for her. But his wife can only be Wanwan. As for Ye Sanqing... she's so beautiful, it's not shameful for him to be her lover. He'll definitely treat her well.

He came down with this unfounded delusion, only to hear the words "Mist and Rain" and see Ye Sanqing standing to the side with the expression of a bystander... It was a bolt from the blue!

He actually... he actually touched that vulgar woman! He wanted to spit on himself for having just been savoring the moment.

Tong Wuyu had no choice but to continue the act, "Brother Ye, I'm sorry, I only did this because I love you too much..."

She had originally thought that the man wouldn't be at a disadvantage in this situation, and that after she cried for a while, it would probably be over.

But Cheng Yanye didn't play by the rules. His mind was filled with disgust and a desire to clear himself, and he yelled, "You call that love? I've never heard of it! You've ruined me! If you're so horny, just say so! Why go out and find any other man? Why did you have to sleep with your sister's husband? Aren't you despicable? I would never touch someone like you! Wanwan, you have to believe me, she didn't succeed, I'm clean!"

This time, Ye Sanqing didn't comment, but Sheng Hanyu commented, "Dude, it's okay to fool others, but don't fool yourself."

His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and everyone present could hear it clearly.

A murmur rippled through the crowd again. After all, they had seen it clearly; to say nothing had happened? Nobody would believe that!

Tong Wuyu was surprised that he would simply deny it and looked at Ye Wanyin.

Her meaning was clear: You need to control your man! Things were almost over, why aren't you stopping now? Why are you making such a fuss?

Ye Wanyin had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Brother Ye, I believe you... but, but so many people saw it... you..." Cheng Yanye clearly hadn't noticed that she was the first one to rush in, nor had he heard what she had shouted. Ye Wanyin pretended not to know, intending to act as if she had just come in as well.

But she forgot that Ye Sanqing was right next to her, ready to offer his comments at any moment.

Ye Sanqing: "Huh! You were the first one in, didn't you see me? We don't have night vision anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yanye turned to Ye Wanyin with a pale face.

His mind went completely blank. What? Wanwan saw everything? She saw him with another woman…

Cheng Yanye's brain couldn't process it, and he yelled "Ah!" as he lunged forward to beat Tong Wuyu.

Ye Sanqing pulled Sheng Hanyu back a little further, "This one will also try to scam people."

At this moment, Zhu Xueli arrived, though late!

When the crowd at the entrance saw the Cheng family arrive, they immediately made way for her.

What a show!

Everyone regretted not bringing some sunflower seeds to eat.

"You bitch! What did you do to my son!" Zhu Xueli rushed forward and slapped Tong Wuyu hard across the face.

Tong Wuyu covered her face, her gaze meeting Ye Wanyin's through her disheveled hair. She really wanted to stand up and say, "I quit!" She'd only been asleep for a moment; did she deserve to be beaten like this?!

Ye Wanyin gestured for her to continue.

She was certain that Tong Wuyu wouldn't abandon the project halfway through, but would probably offer her even more benefits later.

Then Tong Wuyu launched into another heartfelt lament, but Zhu Xueli couldn't bear to hear a word of it and launched into a tirade of insults, using every nasty language imaginable.

She knew all the women in the world coveted her son! She thought Ye Wanyin was simple-minded and innocent, so she would listen to her and take care of her son wholeheartedly. She hadn't expected that being simple-minded wasn't enough; she also needed some cunning.

Otherwise, how could something like her girlfriend sleeping with her man happen, and now she's just crying on the sidelines?

No, I still need to teach her how to protect herself from these slutty and shameless women when we get back!

At this moment, Ye Sanqing cheerfully said, "Aunt Zhu! Isn't this Aunt Zhu? Good evening!"

Zhu Xueli: ...?

She turned her head somewhat stiffly. Ye Sanqing's words sounded a bit off; was this the right occasion for greetings?

Ye Sanqing waved his phone, and Ye Kening, who had somehow squeezed in beside him, appeared.

"I think Aunt Zhu must be tired from shouting so loudly. Why don't you have some water and rest for a bit, and then continue talking at the police station later?"

"What, the police station?" Zhu Xueli was taken aback.

Ye Wanyin and the others also looked at Ye Sanqing.

She wasn't hurt at all, yet she called the police?

Tong Wuyu grew anxious. Today's incident wasn't a huge deal, but it wasn't insignificant either. At worst, it was just her trying to seduce her sister's fiancé and then drugging him—at most, a minor scandal. But now that she was at the police station, she had no way of explaining where the drugs came from.

She glared at Ye Wanyin, but unexpectedly, the other party stood up and said to Ye Sanqing, "Thank you for calling the police for me. We'll understand who's right and who's wrong once we get to the police station."

She kept emphasizing that she was a victim, but Ye Sanqing smoothly ignored her, saying, "Am I some kind of super-good Samaritan? Isn't reporting contraband the duty of every law-abiding citizen? Who are you?"

Ye Wanyin's ability to say this naturally indicates that she is confident she can extricate herself from this matter.

Ye Sanqing knew when to stop, figuring the police would settle things once they arrived.

Everyone also heard the sound of police sirens approaching from afar.

Seeing this, Ye Jin'er pulled the reluctant Ye Siqing and began clearing the area. Since the police were arriving soon, having so many people gathered there wasn't a big deal.

Ye Sanqing picked up the bucket that had been lying on the ground and handed it to Sheng Hanyu: "Thank you for the bucket."

Sheng Hanyu looked at the bucket being handed to her, her lips twitching slightly.

Why did he inexplicably feel that his fate was similar to that of the bucket?

He wanted to say something more to Ye Sanqing, but Ye Sanqing had already taken Ye Kening to greet the Tang family.

He thought about it and decided that there was plenty of time in the future, and it was not a good place to stay for long, so he took the bucket and left after successfully completing his mission.

Ye Wanyin didn't give up and still wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get closer to him, but she saw him walk out of the French windows very naturally, and she was speechless.

Does one have to have a strange thought process to get along well with Sheng Hanyu?

It's okay, if it doesn't work this time, there's always next time. She knows that Sheng Hanyu will also be on "Walking Hand in Hand," and she will definitely make the most of this opportunity next time!

Ye Wanyin whispered a few words to Tong Wuyu, then leaned on Zhu Xueli and cried as if she had found her pillar of support.

These people naturally comforted her, and as the drama came to an end, everyone gradually dispersed.

Ye Sanqing greeted all the members of the Tang family. The entire Tang family was present, but unfortunately, they were too busy to spar today. Ye Sanqing apologized and suggested scheduling another time tomorrow morning.

Tang Qingshan chuckled and stroked his beard in agreement. He could gesture that he was free anytime, but seeing his granddaughter so decisively retaliate against the scoundrel was something he didn't get to see every day!

Only Ye Sanqing's third aunt looked slightly dissatisfied, but she didn't say much and went to rest with the Tang family.

Ye Sanqing didn't take this person to heart. In a large family, it's impossible for everyone to have the same thoughts, and she wouldn't force it.

The police car was already parked at the door. As the person who called the police, she naturally had to go out. But as soon as she stepped out, she saw someone she didn't expect.

An Yueyuan stood inconspicuously to the side, having been there for who knows how long.

When An Yueyuan saw her, and then saw Ye Wanyin who came out afterward, she had no time to consider the purpose of her visit today. She rushed over to Ye Wanyin and said, "I saw everything."

Ye Wanyin hadn't expected her to appear, and in surprise, she could only reply, "What? What are you doing here?"

An Yueyuan saw the guests starting to leave and people starting to come and go through the staff entrance, and sneaked in while the bodyguards weren't paying attention.

When she arrived, she saw Ye Wanyin rush in shouting "Sister!"

An Yueyuan's feelings were very conflicted and complicated. She trusted Ye Wanyin and had always regarded her as her best friend, but everything that had just happened clearly told her that she might have misjudged her.

Moreover, she could see everything clearly from her hospital bed when they were discussing it in the group chat.

Yes, the idea was proposed by Tong Wuyu. An Yueyuan also thought it was too cruel, but Wanwan was so heartbroken and Hua Duoduo was so enthusiastic, so she didn't feel comfortable saying anything more.

But she didn't know that the man she was talking about was Cheng Yanye, Ye Wanyin's fiancé.

She even included her fiancé in her plans; what kind of person is Ye Wanyin?

At this moment, my not-so-bright mind seemed to suddenly click, and many past events flooded back to me.

An Yueyuan felt a chill run down her spine.
