Chapter 315: In Ancient Times, Adulterers Would Be Drowned in a Pig Cage
Mu Donglin’s face was ashen.
“No wonder Lin Kerou said to believe her. It’s because of this reason!” Li Xueqing raised her voice. “I just knew that Leader Mu was an upright person and would never do something like that! Some people just want to bring others down and made the wrong move!”
A tinge of arrogance could be heard in her voice, and her words were filled with trust and admiration for Mu Xichen.
The young girl could not hide her inner thoughts.
Li Beinian smiled discreetly.
Upright?
Tsk!
He was just a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
When she just met him, she also thought that he was upright and honest, but after getting to know him, she realized that this man was full of bad ideas!
She subconsciously turned to look at Lin Kerou and realized that all eyes were on her at this moment.
Her entire face was red and she seemed angry and embarrassed.
After hearing Li Xueqing’s words, her thin body seemed to tremble with anger. She retorted angrily. “There’s nothing going on with me and Brother Donglin. Don’t malign me!”
“The evidence is solid. Why deny it?” Li Xueqing stepped forward. “Our Nian Nian is loyal to Brother Donglin and Leader Mu is an upright person, so it’s impossible that they were together. However, you’ve been caught with Brother Donglin a few times. The last time, you fainted at his birthday party. Now that you’re better, have you crawled into his bed?”
Lin Kerou shook wildly with anger and Li Meng had to support her from behind.
Li Meng’s face darkened. “Li Xueqing, don’t go too far!”
“I haven’t. Didn’t she go too far when she seduced someone else’s man?” Li Xueqing aggressively spat and did not forget to glance at Mu Xichen. “Nian Nian is my sister. I definitely cannot let her bully my sister!”
In shock, Fang Zhili pulled Li Xueqing back. “This a matter between adults. Don’t interfere.”
“Mom, Brother Donglin is a decent person. It must be Lin Kerou who seduced him. He even sent Nian Nian 9999 roses before and really loves her.” As she spoke, she glanced at Li Beinian. “Am I right, Nian Nian?”
No one noticed the subtle change in expression in Mu Xichen’s eyes when Li Xueqing talked about the 9999 roses.
A few observant people already guessed what Li Xueqing’s strategic actions were trying to convey.
She was trying to portray Li Beinian and Mu Donglin as a loving couple while supporting Mu Xichen so that she would not offend Mu Donglin.
As a result, Lin Kerou was destined to become the sacrifice.
Faced with such a question from Li Xueqing, Li Beinian paused and did not answer.
Mu Donglin’s face was distorted as he bellowed. “Enough!”
Large tears fell from Lin Kerou’s eyes as she held onto Li Meng indignantly. She cried. “Brother Donglin, quickly explain. There’s nothing between us. I was with Meng Meng yesterday night and only came back very late. How could I be with you…”
In ancient times, adulterers would be drowned in a pig cage.
However, in the present, they would suffer an equally devastating fate as their reputations would be ruined.
More importantly, if everyone believed the rumor, this would widen the gap between her and Mu Donglin.
She wanted to be with Mu Donglin, but this was not a good time.
Lin Kerou knew what was at stake and cried harder as she screamed. “I like you, but I know that you love Nian Nian, so I did not dare to have any other thoughts. I’ve already tried to keep my distance. Why can’t you let me off?”
