Favoring a concubine and destroying the wife? I'll abandon my husband and children and wipe out

At the same time, Ye Ruyue used Zhao Ye's token to successfully leave the mansion and head to Zhiwei Pavilion, with only Sanmei accompanying her.

Upon arriving at Zhiweizhai, Ye Ruyue entered wearing a veil covering her face. Looking around, she quickly spotted Wang Kesheng talking to others behind the counter.

Once she confirmed that the person was there, Ye Ruyue requested a private room and ordered a number of their signature and exquisite tea snacks.

The waiter, all smiles, quickly brought the food to the table.

Ye Ruyue casually picked up a piece of meat, then slammed her hand on the table and shouted angrily, "Someone come here!"

The waiter rushed in, but before he could speak, Ye Ruyue yelled, "How could you make such delicious pastries? There are human hairs in them!"

"What? How could this be?" The waiter was stunned.

Ye Ruyue threw the piece of food in her hand directly in front of him. Before the waiter even came in, she had already pulled out a strand of Sanmei's hair and stuffed it in.

The waiter could see it clearly; there was indeed some in the filling.

The waiter was taken aback: "Please calm down, sir. This must have been a mistake because the kitchen was too busy! Please wait a moment, I'll go get you a new dish!"

"No way! Everyone says Zhiwei Pavilion's dim sum is good, that's why I came here, but who knew I'd find this! Today it's hair, tomorrow it'll be all sorts of filth! What if I get sick from eating it?"

Ye Ruyue said, "Go and call your manager! I saw him downstairs when I came upstairs, that young man! He must give me an explanation for what happened today!"

The waiter panicked immediately. The person who matched what the customer said was none other than the new manager of Zhiwei Pavilion!

They didn't know the new manager's temperament yet. If anyone made a mistake at this time and went to him, not only would they be punished, but if the new manager was ruthless, they might suffer a lot!

The waiter repeatedly apologized, but Ye Ruyue wouldn't listen at all. Sanmei also joined in, scolding him sternly, leaving him speechless. He had no choice but to go downstairs to report.

Wang Kesheng's face immediately turned cold. "What's going on in the kitchen? How could they make such a mistake and let the customers find out!"

The accountant on one side said in bewilderment, "That's impossible! The cooks always wrap the hair up tightly when making pastries, and they check it twice before serving. If there was any hair, how could they not have noticed it?"

The waiter said with a bitter face, "There really is a long, straight, black hair. Even someone with poor eyesight can see it."

Wang Kesheng frowned.

He had also been to the kitchen; the cooks didn't even have any loose hair on their foreheads, so even if some had fallen in, it shouldn't have been long strands. Those cooks weren't young either; their hair was all very rough, unlike what the waiter described.

Thinking of something, Wang Kesheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Lead the way, I'll go see this guest."

The waiter hurriedly turned around.

Wang Kesheng followed her upstairs to the private room and knocked on the door. A young girl opened the door; judging from her clothes and fabric, she seemed to be a servant.

Wang Kesheng's gaze went straight to the back.

A woman sat at the table with her back to him. Even though she wore a veil, it couldn't hide her graceful figure, and her dress was clearly made of satin.

"May I ask which family this young lady belongs to, and how Zhiwei Pavilion has offended her to cause trouble?" Wang Kesheng asked politely as he entered and closed the door behind him.

Ye Ruyue's lips curled slightly. "If we don't do it this way, how can we see Steward Wang?"

Wang Kesheng paused: "Does this young lady recognize me?"

Ye Ruyue stood up, raised her hand to lift one side of the curtain hanging down to reveal her face, and turned around.

Wang Kesheng felt the face looked familiar and quickly remembered it.

"It's you!"

Isn't this the girl he bumped into at the Zhao residence!

The other party came to her door looking for trouble, and even knew who he was... Could it be that she still remembered that day, felt he had offended her, and refused to let it go?

Besides this, Wang Kesheng couldn't think of any other reason to explain it.

Ye Ruyue told Sanmei to go out and wait, saying, "Manager Wang has a good memory. It seems that I left a very deep impression on you that day, otherwise you wouldn't have recognized me at a glance."

Wang Kesheng put on a very good show, bowing and saying, "I was the one who offended you that day, and I apologize to you, young lady. May I ask what brings you here today?"

"I wouldn't call it guidance." Ye Ruyue smiled slightly, then her expression suddenly changed. She grabbed a teacup from the table and threw it at Wang Kesheng, shouting, "Shouldn't Manager Wang give me an explanation for what happened that day?!"

Teacher Wang quickly dodged to the side.

The cup shattered on the ground, startling passersby. The waiter immediately tried to come in, but Sanmei stopped him.

Inside the private room, Wang Kesheng's eyelids twitched.

"What do you mean, girl?"

Then the other person seemed to be gritting his teeth, stomping his foot and saying, "Come forward!"

Wang Kesheng remained wary and refused to approach.

Ye Ruyue secretly pinched her thigh, the pain causing tears to well up in her eyes, which stunned Wang Kesheng.

"If you don't come closer when you speak, do you expect me, a young woman, to shout so loudly that everyone outside can hear me?!"

"I'm asking you, what did you bring back from the Zhao residence that day! Don't you know the answer?!"

Wang Kesheng was utterly baffled. It seemed the other party had something with him? How could that be! He and this girl were complete strangers; when had he ever asked for anything from her?

Just as Wang Kesheng was about to say no, he suddenly saw the other person blush with embarrassment and look at him with tears in their eyes, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

Judging from the other person's reaction, it seems to be about a private item, or something belonging to a daughter.

What he brought back that day was...

"You...could it be..."

"Speak up, but keep your voice down!"

Ye Ruyue shouted.

Wang Kesheng hesitated for a few moments, but this time he did as instructed.

Before he could even speak, Ye Ruyue suddenly slapped him across the face, catching him completely off guard.

Ye Ruyue preemptively declared, "I only bumped into you at the Zhao residence that day, and I knew it was indeed you, you scoundrel, who took me away, my..."

She seemed unable to speak, and choked up.

"I thought you were a gentleman, but I never expected that after you bumped into me, you would secretly do such a frivolous and wicked thing! You clearly wanted to ruin my reputation, what a vicious heart you have!"

Wang Kesheng's mind went blank for a moment. "The extra undergarment in that box... it's yours?!"

Not the lady's?!

Ye Ruyue said matter-of-factly, "You stole it yourself, and you dare to question me!"

Wang Kesheng protested his innocence: "I didn't steal anything from you, young lady! Besides, it might not even be yours!"

Ye Ruyue directly stated the style, color, and ingredients, matching them one by one, which made Wang Kesheng's eyes widen.

He hadn't opened the box in front of this girl, and if it wasn't hers, she couldn't possibly know so much detail!

Ye Ruyue pretended to wipe her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "I just drank too much tea and went there to change my clothes. I accidentally dirtied them, so I asked the servants to bring them back so I could change and go back. That thing is private, and I was embarrassed to ask the servants to bring it, so I thought I would take it back myself. I didn't expect to run into you!"

"When I got back, the item had vanished without a trace. I thought about it over and over again, and it could only have been you who took it! I had people investigate thoroughly to verify your identity, and sure enough, it was you!"

"If anyone finds out about this, I'll kill myself! You still won't admit it? Are you trying to tarnish my reputation?! If that's the case, I might as well go all out and expose you first, so everyone knows who you are and we can all die together!"
