“You did so much to help him escape from the abyss of suffering, I don’t even think you need to pay him anymore,” Wu Xingye said.

They had been with Mu Huan all the way. They knew how hard she worked to earn money. When he thought about how she was forced to marry a 30-year-old man initially as she didn’t have the money to bring her granny to leave the Mu family, he could feel the pain in his heart.

She was at such a blooming, youthful age.

Other ladies were still enjoying their youth without any worries, having unbridled fun, yet she was racking her brains over her granny’s safety.

“The lead host wants to bring his little sister overseas and undergo plastic surgery as well, to change themselves beyond recognition and escape their past. All these things need money, so how can I not give him any?”

“That’s why I’m saying you are foolish. You saving his sister and him helping you to seduce Bai Xuexian and her daughter are clearly two very different matters. You wanted to give him money no matter what, and now you are even taking great pains to help them escape successfully. Why don’t you just take responsibility for the next half of their lives as well!” Wu Xingye could not help but poke her head harshly.

“Did you think my head is made of iron?! That hurts!” Mu Huan held her head and complained resentfully.

“I hate that this iron is not turning into steel!” Wu Xingye said through gritted teeth.

“I am not made of iron. How can I turn into steel?”

Wu Xingye was angered to the point of amusement by her. “Mu Huan, you can do it!”

“Haish, Brother Xiao Ye, I know you are doing this for my own good. But I’ve already agreed to these terms with him, I can’t go back on my words!” Mu Huan smiled as she tried to curry favor with him.

“He had helped me a great deal.”

“You make it sound like you didn’t think of a plan to save his sister!” Wu Xingye snorted coldly as he continued to say, “You deserve being poor!”

“In the past, just because of Lin Qingya’s one act of kindness, you went through hell to earn money and took care of her like she is a young missy. And now, this. You deserve it!”

“Alright, alright. I deserve it, I deserve it. I will treat you to hot pot tonight. Eat well and leave!”

“Fine. It shall be at the hot pot store at Zhong Shan road that you mentioned last time!” Wu Xingye huffed.

“We will go to one that’s even better than that! It’s a happy day today, so let’s go celebrate!” The issue had blown up and the plan was so successful, they had to have a round of celebrations!

“Seems like you still have a conscience.” Wu Xingye didn’t want to nag at her any longer.

Even though he always called her foolish, it was this side of her that many people loved. When someone treated her well, she would return the kindness tenfold. She was loyal and she treated her friends with a genuine heart.

At this moment, in the Mu family...

“You b*tch!” Matriarch Mu delivered a harsh slap across Bai Xuexian’s face, which now had five red fingerprint marks on it.

The said person stumbled a few steps back.

“Mom, this was a set-up! I was framed!” Bai Xuexian didn’t dare to yell that it hurt even though it did. She tried to rush forward to the elder Mrs. Mu like a dog despite having been beaten.

“A set-up? Look at the videos, the photos! You still have the cheek to say that you’ve been framed? If you weren’t unfaithful and unsettled, would you have been able to be framed by others?” Matriarch Mu knew that there must be a culprit behind this, but if her daughter-in-law wasn’t lowly, wanton, and slutty, how would she have fallen into a trap?!

“Mom...”

“Also, it’s fine if you are lowly and wanton yourself! But how are you teaching that daughter of yours?! Mother and daughter falling for the same host! And even fighting over him... You...!” Matriarch Mu began to lose her breath due to her fury.

Mu Dongsheng rushed over hurriedly to comfort her. “Mom... Mom... Don’t get too agitated...”

“Get away from me, you useless thing!” Matriarch Mu pushed Mu Dongsheng away with one hand. If he wasn’t so useless and had watched over his wife properly, how would such a thing even have happened?!
