Chapter 103: Chapter 103 It wasn’t me who did it

Chapter 103 -103 It wasn’t me who did it

Lady Wen was shocked, “Did Chuyi send it? How could that happen?”

“Yes, she was the one who sent it! After she sent the message, she deleted all the chat records, then sneakily gave the phone back to Miss Nianyou, and immediately after, she told Miss Nianyou that Doctor Anxin had agreed to consult at Qi Hospital!”

“Miss Nianyou is too naive and too kind. She just believed Chuyi and even shared this good news with Qi Yunfan, which ultimately led to a disaster!”

“Madam, none of this is Miss Nianyou’s fault, it’s all Chuyi’s wrongdoing. I’m too ashamed to face you, Madam. Please fire me!”

Lady Wen was utterly dumbfounded, she looked at Lin Yueqin, then at Lin Chuyi, and finally at Wen Nianyou, “Youyou, is this true?”

Wen Nianyou cried and shook her head, “Mom, I oversimplified things. Don’t blame Chuyi; she’s actually been quite good to me. Just now, when I wanted to jump into the sea, she desperately tried to stop me! And don’t blame Auntie Lin either, Auntie Lin never favors Chuyi, she’s the fairest of all.”

Lady Wen sighed deeply, “Ah.”

Ye Chuyi stood aside, watching Lin Yueqin and Wen Nianyou act in concert, with a calm and indifferent expression on her face.

Surprised?

Not at all.

For twenty-six years, this type of scene had played out countless times.

No matter what trouble Wen Nianyou got into, what disgraceful act she committed, Lin Yueqin always found a way to put the blame on Chuyi.

At first, Lady Wen would ask her “Xiaoyi, is this true?” but later, Lady Wen stopped asking and simply embraced Wen Nianyou to comfort and console her.

Faced with such situations, Ye Chuyi had grown numb.

As a child, she had tried to defend herself many times, but each time, it brought about a severe beating from Lin Yueqin.

During her childhood, it was rare for her to be without injuries.

Later, as she grew older, she learned to be smart; she stopped defending herself, which meant Lin Yueqin didn’t beat her.

Lady Wen was a very gentle and kind person; even if she admitted to doing something, Lady Wen would not hit or scold her, but would instead gently teach her life lessons, things Lin Yueqin had never taught her.

Sometimes, she even longed for Nianyou to make a mistake and then have it blamed on her, because it was only during those times that she could be close to Lady Wen and listen to her tender and meticulous guidance.

However, after she came of age, Lady Wen no longer tutored her.

At the head of the room, Wen Xingye, the male head of the household, was not as gentle as the lady of the house; he looked furiously at Ye Chuyi and demanded, “Has the Wen Family not treated you well enough? Why did you steal Youyou’s phone? Why do you want to harm her like this?!”

Ye Chuyi lifted her head, “I didn’t steal her phone, nor did I harm her; the things you’re accusing me of, I didn’t do them.”

“You still dare to argue?!”

Wen Xingye’s roar echoed through the living room, “Everything was fine at home, Youyou was even about to get engaged to Qi Yunfan, and now you’ve ruined it all! Get out of the Wen Family and never set foot in it again!”

Lin Yueqin pulled herself up from the ground, yanking Chuyi towards the outside forcefully, “You vile creature, get out of here! Nothing good ever happens when you’re around! The young lady has been ruined by you!”

Ye Chuyi stumbled as she was dragged along, then turned her head to remind Lady Wen, “Madam, please remember to go for a check-up at the hospital, go to the Dome, stay away from Qi Hospital, their qualifications are not sufficient…”

“Lin Chuyi, when will you ever stop? Madam knows very well, you don’t need to play the good person here, get out now!”

Lin Yueqin pushed her with a force, thrusting her out of the living room and then slammed the door shut, leaving her outside with a “bang”.

Lady Wen, about to speak up, was forced to swallow her words.

Why, in this household, was the one who cared most about her health the daughter of a servant?

Her husband was always busy with business outside year-round, her daughter was still young and unaware of worldly hardships, and the servants only said what sounded good, reassuring her that she wasn’t sick and was in good health.

Only Chuyi, every time she saw her, would remind her to get her health checked.

She truly cared about her and kept her in mind.

How could such a child possibly steal Youyou’s phone and harm her?
