Ye Xiaolan's lips twitched, and she forced out a few words through gritted teeth: "No need... I'm not thirsty."

"Okay, fine." Jiang Zao nodded and gave up.

Then she continued to tell the story in a detailed and engaging manner, striving to make the story of Lu Yanxun's relentless pursuit of her even more vivid and realistic.

Jiang Zao: "Where were we? Oh right, we were talking about the time I almost fainted... Didn't I almost faint that time? Just when I was about to fall to the ground, he caught me in time. He was going to take me to the hospital, but I didn't want to trouble him, since I hadn't agreed to date him yet."

“He was very worried about me, afraid that something might happen to me, and insisted on taking me to the hospital against my will, but I lied to him and said that I had medicine at home, and insisted that he take me home.”

Ye Xiaolan began to question Jiang Zao again: "So what exactly was wrong with you that day? You weren't faking it, were you?"

Jiang Zao thought to herself, "You're quite good at grasping the key points."

She really did pretend to be sick that day.

Jiang Zao thought for a moment and then casually made up a story: "I was on my period, and I was too embarrassed to say it."

Ye Xiaolan looked at Jiang Zao with a mixture of annoyance and helplessness. "And then? From that day on, you two started dating?"

Jiang Zao shook her head: "No, I have never agreed to date him."

Ye Xiaolan almost laughed out of anger at Jiang Zao: "Then how exactly did you marry him? You didn't even date before getting married? That's impossible! I don't believe it!"

This time, Jiang Zao nodded: "Although we are not dating, in his heart, he has already regarded me as his girlfriend. I hesitated to agree to be with him, so he simply went all out and sent his parents to my house with betrothal gifts to propose marriage."

"What did you say???" Ye Xiaolan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. "He directly sent his parents to your house to propose marriage???"

"Hmm." Jiang Zao nodded helplessly, "I haven't agreed yet, but my parents have already agreed on my behalf."

At this point, Jiang Zao grasped Ye Xiaolan's hand: "Xiaolan, you're a girl too. You know, girls' marriages are never up to us to decide; they're always arranged by our parents."

Ye Xiaolan stared blankly at Jiang Zao, her voice numb:

"So you mean you didn't actually agree to date him, and your marriage was arranged by his parents and your parents' arrangement?"

"Hmm." Jiang Zao sighed. "How should I put it? Actually, I still don't really understand him. I only know that he's very good to me and he's willing to buy me all sorts of nice things. I wasn't too keen on this marriage at first, but I figured I'd just have to make do."

"The baby's already so big," Jiang Zao gently touched her belly. "What else can we do but get a divorce?"

Ye Xiaolan was at a loss for words: "You've still thought about divorcing him?"

“I have thought about it.” Jiang Zao raised her head, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and said softly, “Although he gave me everything good, he is not the kind of husband I ideally want.”

Ye Xiaolan had reached the point where she couldn't even be bothered to roll her eyes.

She somewhat regretted coming to see Jiang Zao.

I really suspect that Jiang Zao said these things on purpose to upset her.

Jiang Zao: Congratulations, you guessed right. I said it on purpose to annoy you.

Seeing Ye Xiaolan looking dejected and half-dead from anger, Jiang Zao secretly rejoiced.

"Xiaolan, you've never been married, so you don't know. Sometimes men are too clingy, which can be really hard to handle. My husband is like that. Don't be fooled by his aloof and elegant appearance in public; he's not like that at all in private."

Jiang Zao felt that she was almost convinced by what she had made up.

I wonder how Lu Yanxun would react if he knew she was talking about him like this behind his back.

Little did she know that Lu Yanxun had already overheard the outrageous stories she fabricated that distorted the truth.

From the moment Ye Xiaolan entered the room until now, he has listened to the entire conversation without missing a single word.

Lu Yanxun didn't know what kind of reaction he was having.

All I could think of was the word "outrageous".

Not only are the stories Jiang Zao makes up outrageous, but she herself is also incredibly absurd.

It's a real shame this woman isn't setting up a storytelling stall on the overpass.

Lu Yanxun listened with a dark expression for a long time.

Now, with a dark expression, continue listening.

He wanted to see how outrageous her story could get.

"What is he really like in private?" Ye Xiaolan asked with envy and jealousy.

Jiang Zao moved her lips, but hesitated to speak.

Then he moved his lips again, but didn't say anything more.

Finally, as if embarrassed to speak, she covered her face and said, "Oh dear, I'd better not say it. You're not married yet, so there are some things I can't tell you."

Ye Xiaolan, however, insisted on getting to the bottom of it: "It's nothing, I've never been married but I've had relationships."

Jiang Zao peeked at her through her fingers: "Do you really want to know?"

"Yes." Ye Xiaolan nodded.

Jiang Zao had no choice but to reluctantly satisfy her curiosity, and said shyly:

"He's incredibly vigorous in that area, seven or eight times a night is no problem..."

Ye Xiaolan felt a chill, and her face, which had been showing an expression of envy and jealousy, suddenly turned red.

It wasn't exactly a blush.

A large part of the reason is that they turned red from anger.

Damn ginger and jujubes.

She was so angry!

How did Jiang Zao end up with such a great man?

why?

why!

Ye Xiaolan racked her brains but couldn't figure it out.

She clutched her chest, as if clinging to her last breath: "I've heard many rumors in the village about your marital discord."

Jiang Zao said nonchalantly, "You said it yourself, it's just a rumor, how can I believe it? I bet it's just people who are jealous of me spreading it. Sour grapes are just that—sour grapes. People can say whatever they want, can't they?"

Ye Xiaolan was so upset by Jiang Zao's relentless attacks that she wanted to cry.

She remained silent for a long time, unsure of what to say.

She doesn't want to say anything now.

I just want to cry.

I want to have a good, loud cry.

After crying, give Jiang Zao a good scolding.

Why?

Why!

She was smarter than Jiang Zao from a young age and could outsmart her in everything.

It can be said that it is superior to ginger and jujube in every aspect.

But she just wasn't as pretty as her.

Ye Xiaolan actually always thought of Jiang Zao as a clumsy, good-for-nothing.

But this seemingly perfect woman ended up marrying such a wonderful man, leaving her far behind.

She is not reconciled.

I'm so unwilling to accept this!

Jiang Zao nonchalantly watched Ye Xiaolan's loss of composure, thinking to herself, "Original owner, you saw it, didn't you? I've avenged you this way."

However, Ye Xiaolan's loss of composure did not last long.

After she calmed down, she found a new angle to start picking at the ginger and jujubes:

"But I heard that he seems to have a childhood sweetheart who is a student at a prestigious university. Did he mention her to you when he was pursuing you?"

Jiang Zao remained calm: "Oh, you mean her? Her name is Su Xinyue. She is my husband's childhood sweetheart, but he has never mentioned her to me. I only found out about her later from my sister-in-law."

Ye Xiaolan thought she had found a way to defeat Jiang Zao, and finally perked up.

"So, before he married you, he really did have a girlfriend?" Ye Xiaolan's eyes turned contemptuous, and her tone mocking. "That girl never came to you, and she blames you for interfering in their relationship?"

Jiang Zao saw all of Ye Xiaolan's contempt and ridicule.

She looked puzzled: "Who said that was his ex-girlfriend? Childhood sweethearts are just childhood sweethearts. They only have a brother-sister relationship, not a romantic one. It's all just rumors. My man had never dated anyone before he pursued me."

Jiang Zao felt quite impressive that she had distorted the facts like this.

But there's nothing she can do; she's now in Lu Yanxun's position as his wife.

She has the necessary licenses and two solid safeguards.

Having made a pinky promise with Lu Yanxun, she could say whatever she wanted.

Anyway, no one called her out on it.

Even Lu Yanxun himself couldn't do it.

Because he made a pinky promise that as long as I don't try anything funny, I can do whatever I want.

Of course, arranging stories about him and his "white moonlight" was also within her power to do so.

To be honest, after making that pinky promise, Jiang Zao had the illusion that she had a get-out-of-jail-free card on her head.

It seems like you can do whatever you want and say whatever you want.

This feeling is really great.

Thinking about her current situation, Jiang Zao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
