2871 Like Jumping into a Fire Pit

A girl able to stand up for herself? That's totally his taste!

"Get the h*ll out of here!" Yang Lin raged.

She couldn't let He Zhengbai strike Lu Qi.

How could He Zhengbai's true colors be exposed before Sun Jingfei?

Hence, Yang Lin moved first. "You've been hanging onto Zhengbai since a long time ago, causing others to misunderstand. And now you're even trying to destroy Zhengbai's chance to finally get married?

"We didn't speak ill of you to others even when you were pestering Zhengbai. What about you? Is this how you repay us?" Yang Lin's face was one of grievance.

"I've really opened my eyes today." Lu Qi had never seen such a shameless person!

"Your whole family is just a bunch of shameless jerks!" Lu Qi pointed at Yang Lin. "And you were actually good friends with Xia Qingwei since childhood. Because of this, He Zhengbai then met and eventually got together with Lu Man. But when Xia Qingwei fell from grace, you eagerly drew the line between the two of you, afraid she'd come to you for money.

"You even allowed He Zhengbai to hurt Lu Man like that. He Zhengbai truly inherited his brazenness from you." Lu Qi sneered.

Eyes narrowing, Yang Lin rebuked, "Have you forgotten who made Xia Qingwei fall from grace? Who…"

Who stole He Zhengbai from Lu Man?

But Yang Lin suddenly remembered she was insisting that Lu Qi was the one pestering He Zhengbai.

That He Zhengbai was not related to Lu Qi in any way.

If she said Lu Qi snatched He Zhengbai from Lu Man's hands, wouldn't she be contradicting herself?

So Yang Lin barely stopped herself.

But Lu Qi didn't have any qualms.

Someone had to go down tonight; it's either her or them.

She didn't shy away from the details of what she did.

She could spill whatever the He family didn't dare to.

"Finish your sentence! Why are you afraid to?" Lu Qi sneered, speaking shrilly. "Did you wish to say it was me who stole He Zhengbai from Lu Man? Why? Did you remember what you said previously and realize you'd be contradicting yourself?

"That's right, my mom was the third party who pushed Xia Qingwei out of the way, and I did the same to Lu Man." Lu Qi spoke without restraint.

She looked at Sun Jingfei, raising her brow. "So you've got to be careful. This woman can abandon her childhood friend at will and avoid her faster than a dog just because she doesn't have any more use to her."

Yang Lin was enraged. Lu Qi was saying she was a dog!

"This man has been lying to you all along!" Lu Qi continued. "All for your family's money. The He family took all of our family's money, and now they're here for yours. If you marry him, it'd be like jumping into a fire pit.

"I was really blind back then. Had I known he was such a sly bast*rd, I wouldn't have taken a liking to him!"

Hearing Lu Qi's disdain for her son, Yang Lin rebutted angrily, "Who do you think you are, thinking our Zhengbai will like you?"

"Ha! You guys just look in the mirror and reflect upon yourselves first!" Lu Qi scorned.

Lu Qi pointed at He Zhengbai, then at Yang Lin, before saying to Sun Jingfei, "Look at them now! Aren't they ugly?"
