Chapter 1730: People Could Actually Be This Shameless
“Li Gouzi, if you dare step foot into my house or dare slander Ermei again, I won’t forgive you.” Chen Ermei’s mother, Lady Li, smacked Li Gouzi with a broom.
While dodging Lady Li’s broomstick, Li Gouzi shouted shamelessly, “Ermei and I like each other. Aunt Li, we share the same surname. We should treat each other as family.”
Li Gouzi’s actions attracted the attention of many onlookers. Lady Li shook with anger. “I’ll tear your mouth off.”
Ning Shu felt like she had gained a new perspective on the world. So it turned out that people could actually be this shameless.
Li Gouzi was making such a huge ruckus. It was very likely that someone else had given him this idea.
Ning Shu patted Lady Li’s back, then looked at Li Gouzi. “Li Gouzi.”
“Yes,” Li Gouzi immediately replied with a beaming smile.
“I’ve never set up a meeting with you. You went to Fang Yong’s house by yourself. Did you go to peep on the women who were there that day?”
“And how did you get into the room at Fang Yong’s house?” Ning Shu asked indifferently. “The door was locked, so how did you get in?”
“We clearly agreed on it,” Li Gouzi said anxiously. “Aren’t we already close like that?”
When Li Gouzi said that, Ning Shu immediately felt many insinuating eyes on her.
Ning Shu pressed her lips together and clenched her fists tightly. She really wanted to kill Li Gouzi.
Ning Shu calmly said, “You said we agreed to meet at Fang Yong’s house? You’re acting as if his house is a brothel in the red light district. Tell me, why would we want to meet at his house?”
“Li Gouzi, if you don’t speak clearly our family will let the village constable deal with this matter,” Ning Shu said. “We also have to prove the innocence of Fang Yong’s wife after all. How could she possibly have let you into her house?”
Li Gouzi quickly replied, “Fang Yong’s wife doesn’t know anything. This was between us.”
“Son of a bitch, how dare you slander my daughter like this?” Lady Li grabbed the broom and struck Li Gouzi with it. “Everyone knows what kind of a rotten person you are! How could my daughter be involved with you? “
Li Gouzi became unhappy. “Auntie, you’re making me upset.’’
“Like I care if you’re upset or not.” Lady Li’s broom hit Li Gouzi on his face, making him wail in pain.
Ning Shu looked at Li Gouzi silently. He was determined to smear her name, so in order to get rid of one rumor, she had to create another one.
Ning Shu squinted at Fang Yong and Bai Yiqiao who were walking alongside the road.
Bai Yiqiao wore a pleated skirt, a brightly colored top, and an exquisitely embroidered waistcoat that made her complexion look soft and delicate, giving off the charming and lively atmosphere of a young woman.
She was similar to the young daughters-in-law of big affluent families and stood out distinctly in the dull crowd.
The fabric Bai Yiqiao wore wasn’t of a good quality, but she was skilled at using embroidery and small accessories to make her clothes look beautiful.
Many men’s gazes were drawn to Bai Yiqiao.
Fang Yong glared at Li Gouzi and said in a low voice, “Are you causing trouble again?”
When Li Gouzi saw Fang Yong, he recoiled, remembering the pain that Fang Yong had inflicted on him. Li Gouzi said weakly, “I’m not, I’m just here to find Chen Ermei.”
“Quit looking for her. Just look in the mirror, you think you’re fit for her? If you’re looking for trouble again, I’ll take care of you,” Fang Yong said coldly.
Bai Yiqiao frowned. What did Fang Yong mean? Why did he care about Chen Ermei? Why?
