As soon as Qi Yan left, everyone in the alley had seen it. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

But those people didn’t have the nerve to ask him.

As for the Rong Family... they didn’t want to run over to ask either.

The Rong Family was too formidable, especially that daughter... she was incredibly formidable.

One wouldn’t want to disturb a hornet’s nest over some trivial matter.

The most devastated was undoubtedly Ms. Li, who of course already knew why her daughter had been arrested.

Moreover, she faced a fate of being sent to a farm for re-education through labor for five years... Just thinking about her daughter, who she treasured in the palm of her hand, meeting such an end.

Ms. Li was wailing and weeping at home.

Of course, she didn’t stop cursing Rong Yan and her family either.

She didn’t dare go to the Rong Family to curse... but was she not allowed to curse at home?

Her profanities and cries of distress filled the entire courtyard... and after a while, the residents of the courtyard had grown tired of her crying.

Mrs. Sun glanced at the Li Family’s place, then left the courtyard and went to a guesthouse not too far away from home.

"Mother, why have you come?" Sun Feng was somewhat surprised.

"I came to tell you something. That Li Juan was arrested yesterday, wasn’t she? She’s gotten into trouble..."

Mrs. Sun relayed everything she had heard to her daughter, then said, "The Li Family now has a bad reputation... I think you and Li Shi... should just forget it!"

"You’re still young; finding someone else shouldn’t be hard..."

Mrs. Sun was quite satisfied with her daughter’s appearance and didn’t find her ugly.

Sun Feng hadn’t expected this and recovered from her shock, then became especially pleased.

"Mother, it’s better that Li Juan isn’t around! If she were here, my future with Li Shi would probably be ruined by this little sister-in-law. Even if it weren’t ruined, I wouldn’t have an easy time. Don’t forget, Li Shi and his wife divorced because of his sister..."

She lived in the same large courtyard as the Li Family; how could she not know how the Li Family doted on Li Juan?

In earlier years, she had secretly envied Li Juan, after all, Li Juan’s mother was really too good to her, and moreover, Li Shi and his two brothers also doted on this sister tremendously.

Now that Li Juan had gotten into trouble, wouldn’t her good days in the Li Family be upon her?

"But... the Li Family’s reputation is now ruined..." Mrs. Sun still felt some disdain.

"Mother, what does a bad reputation matter? I’m about to be left homeless and without food... Can reputation be more important than a full stomach? Besides, finding someone else... I’d probably end up with someone who’s either unattractive or much older... I don’t want that, I want to be closer to you..."

As long as it was the same large courtyard, she could bother her sister-in-law every day. If she lived farther away, how would she be able to bother Chang Ying?

Her current plight was all Chang Ying’s fault. If Chang Ying hadn’t instigated her older brother to kick her and her son out of the house, then she wouldn’t have lost all the money she had hidden.

Therefore, she despised Chang Ying.

And incidentally, she also resented that Rong Yan.

If it weren’t for her meddling, Chang Ying would probably have died early... or gone mad by now.

Mrs. Sun was quite receptive to this idea, "Alright then! Do whatever you think is best..."

"Mom, I want to get married as soon as possible... Now that Li Juan had an accident, her mom must only be thinking about Li Juan’s affairs... We might as well..." Sun Feng whispered her plan into her mother’s ear.

That very night, Sun Feng was brought home by Li Shi.

And it was the kind where they had already registered their marriage. Even if Mother Li was furious, she couldn’t go against her son, but she was so angry that she... had a stroke.

Originally, this had nothing to do with Rong Yan at all.

But as fate would have it... the Li Family was quite peculiar, actually coming to ask for help.

Rong Yan heard the knocking from outside and then saw her mom and Qin Mei both busy, so she, having nothing to do, went to open the door. When she saw who was outside, she couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows.

The visitor was Sun Feng, and she quickly explained her reason for coming to Rong Yan.

"So, you want me to treat her stroke?" Rong Yan was utterly speechless.

"Rong Yan, let’s not talk about other things for now, but you’re a doctor, and saving lives is your duty. My mother-in-law has had a stroke now, and with your high medical skills... you’ll surely be able to cure her, right!" The new daughter-in-law was full of moral coercion.

After hearing her words, Rong Yan knew why the Li Family had come seeking her out. It was all because of this woman in front of her.

The woman clearly wanted to vex her.

Crossing her arms, she then let out a cold laugh:

"Doctor? Who told you I was a doctor? I’m merely still a medical student at best. Also, it’s not scary to be illiterate. What’s scary is someone like you who acts like you know everything when you don’t and insists on imposing your own ideas on others."

"There’s specialization in every profession; don’t you understand this phrase? Who said that just because I can treat some diseases, I can definitely cure a stroke?"

"You’re quite amusing! I have quite the animosity with the Li Family, and yet, you’re asking me to treat someone from the Li Family. Have you considered your mother-in-law’s feelings? If she knew that I was going to treat her, she would probably be so mad she’d die on the spot. Is this your way of trying to kill your mother-in-law with my assistance?"

"You’re quite vicious, woman. Not only did you anger her into a stroke, but now you plan to let her pass away too, tsk tsk, such a dark heart!"

Sun Feng: ...

She had no retort for this series of remarks.

Her face turned difficult to maintain.

"... If you won’t treat her, then just don’t, but why slander me? My mother-in-law didn’t have a stroke because of me..."

"Stop..." Rong Yan made a gesture to halt her speech, "I have absolutely no interest in your family’s troubles. If you were a dutiful daughter-in-law, you should be sending your mother-in-law to the hospital right now, not here making a scene with me, trying to use me to finish off your mother-in-law."

"Also, if you want to take advantage of others, please find someone else to try. In front of me... you’re just a clown. Besides, the Li Family doesn’t dare to come to my door and bother me anymore, where did you find the courage? Or is it that you want me to broadcast your troubles for all to hear?"

Sun Feng: "I... If you won’t treat her, then don’t treat her, but don’t talk nonsense."

"If you wish to keep something secret..." Rong Yan looked at her change in color with a cold smile, "leave immediately, right now, and don’t let me see you come to my house again."

Extremely frustrated, Sun Feng had really no way to deal with Rong Yan.

"Forget it, I won’t beg you anymore..."

After dropping those words, she turned and left in a huff, her steps unsteady as she walked away swiftly, as if a fierce dog were chasing her from behind.

Rong Yan watched her leave with a cold smile.

Just as she was about to turn and close the door, suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of someone.

The person was striding towards her...

A smile involuntarily appeared on Rong Yan’s face.
