Zhao Youlin blurted out those words before the public without hesitation at all. Her words nearly tarnished Zhao Youxi’s reputation.
The so-called upper-class society was similar to the entertainment industry where the people only looked highly on the high and mighty, and they looked down upon the lower-class society. Therefore, they were not as innocent as they appeared to be. However, no matter how rotten and corrupted they were in private, they had to pretend to be as clear as still water on the surface.
Zhao Youxi’s rotten affairs were long known by the Zhao family and even other families as well. It was just that none of them exposed that ugly side of hers.
A wise man would avoid confrontations and play dumb instead. Even a dumb man would keep quiet. Her affairs were none of their business and so, no one was willing to take the lead to expose the truth.
However, the moment someone was willing to take the lead to expose the truth, the rest would surely follow suit by adding salt to injury.
Zhao Youlin swept a glance across her surroundings. The residents in this neighborhood were either rich or noble. Zhao Youxi’s sarcastic remarks had already attracted many residents to stop and listened. The spectators could spread the words on Zhao Youlin’s behalf.
She believed Zhao Youxi would be reputed wonderfully in a different way among the upper-class society from this day on.
Ye Yan seemed to have seen through Zhao Youlin’s intention. There was a hint of a gentle smile from his eyes.
“What did you say?!” Zhao Youxi was dumbstruck. Immediately after, she widened her eyes like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She growled at Zhao Youlin.
Zhao Youlin cast a glance at her at ease. There was a hint of mockery in her eyes, “I didn’t identify that person by name. Why did you take it personally?”
“You!”
Zhao Youxi was about to shout again. However, Zhao Youlin did not give her a chance to do so. She made it sound like a simple issue by snapping in, “Moreover, you seem to have misunderstood something. What do you mean by me being kicked out of the house with my child? Hahaha! This is the biggest joke I’ve ever heard in this era. Ms. Zhao, you can simply confirm the news from anyone. I believe no one dares to say that Joy and myself were kicked out of the house. It’s me who has willingly brought Joy out of the Mu family. We divorced, peacefully!”
Zhao Youxi was caught off guard by Zhao Youlin’s sudden outburst. However, she soon recovered from it and scanned Zhao Youlin in disdain. She sneered, “Are you sure you willingly did that?! I wonder who’s the shameless one who had drugged President Mu just to be married into the Mu family. Now you’re telling me that you willingly left the Mu family. Do you think I will believe that?!”
Zhao Youlin glared at her. It was annoying for a wise man to talk with a fool. She did not bother to spend another second talking to this weirdo.
Zhao Youxi had tried out Zhao Youlin’s patience. Zhao Youlin smirked, “Whether you trust me or not, it’s none of my business. Ms. Zhao, did you eagerly come to me just for the sake of discussing whether I was kicked out by the Mu family or if I left them? If so, I’m sorry that I cannot continue the conversation anymore because I’m really very busy. Unlike someone who has the free time of finding fault from others.”
“Heh! Busy? Do you mean you’re busy seducing the guys?”
Zhao Youlin kept smiling. She delivered a scathing remark that hurt more than whatever Zhao Youxi had said, “This is way better than someone who has so much free time that seducing men is the only thing she’s good at.” Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, she turned around and left without giving a chance for Zhao Youxi to drive herself into madness.
“You!” This was already Zhao Youlin’s second humiliation to her as well as her second instance ignoring her. Zhao Youxi’s entire body was boiling in rage. Her glare also grew increasingly spiteful. The moment she saw Zhao Youlin turn around and was about to leave, she recalled her actual purpose for coming here.
“Wait!”
