Chapter 461: Is it because you're lusting after your brother-in-law?

Wang Shufen was about to walk past Bai Weiwei when a man rushed towards her, nearly knocking her over.

Just as Wang Shufen was about to curse, she heard the man shout urgently, "Weiwei, I've finally found you! Come home with me!"

Wang Shufen turned around and saw the reckless young man from before grabbing the woman's arm, the two of them struggling.

“Go back to what home? I don’t have a home.” Bai Weiwei forcefully shook off his hand, her attitude resolute.

When Zhao Kai couldn't get away with being tough, he tried being gentle, looking at her pleadingly and saying, "I was wrong yesterday. I shouldn't have argued with you. Shall we go back? I'll go with you to set up a sweet potato stall. Don't bother looking for a job here anymore; it's really hard to find work at the end of the year."

Zhao Kai went out to do odd jobs yesterday and got home quite late.

Back at the rented apartment, Bai Weiwei didn't cook. The apartment was cold and empty, and as soon as she entered, she brought up the topic of divorce.

As a result, the two had a heated argument.

Zhao Kai almost resorted to violence.

Bai Weiwei looked at him with cold eyes and a resolute attitude, "Zhao Kai, I said I want a divorce from you, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on."

The reason she came out to look for work today was to find a live-in nanny or a service worker who would provide room and board, so she could move out of that rented room and cut ties with Zhao Kai.

To start over, the first thing to do is to get away from that incompetent man, Zhao Kai.

She couldn't go back to her hometown either. If she did, her parents would definitely send her back to the Zhao family so they wouldn't return the betrothal gifts.

Zhao Kai grabbed her hand, his cold eyes filled with possessiveness. He gritted his teeth and threatened, "I will never divorce you. Forget about it."

After saying that, she switched to a pleading tone, "Weiwei, I will treat you well, please give me another chance."

Bai Weiwei wiped away her tears, her face full of grievance as she accused, "What chance? If I give you a chance, will your illness get better? Will you be able to earn money? Will you be able to give me a good life?"

She shook her head in despair, roaring angrily, "You have nothing! You don't even have the most basic functions of a man. What hope is there for me if I stay with you?"

Bai Weiwei's words quickly attracted the attention of passersby. Several men curiously looked Zhao Kai up and down, "What the heck is this woman saying? Is her man impotent?"

"That sounds like it."

"Such a young wife, married to a man who can't have sex, she'll definitely get a divorce, or at least find another man."

Hearing the whispers of passersby, Zhao Kai glared at Bai Weiwei with a twisted and sinister expression, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

That filthy woman, how dare she humiliate him like that in the street!

That's practically suicide.

Wang Shufen was about to leave when she heard the two arguing, and her gossipy nature made her stop.

However, the more I looked at them, the more familiar they seemed.

She seemed familiar to me.

Especially their accents.

Why does this sound a bit like Bai Zhi's accent?

Under scrutiny, Zhao Kai felt like a monkey being watched, with everyone's gaze seemingly focused on a certain part of his body.

His face burned with discomfort, and he instinctively tried to squeeze his legs together.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he growled through gritted teeth, "Bai Weiwei, watch your mouth!"

Bai Weiwei........

Upon hearing this name, Wang Shufen instantly recalled their identities.

No wonder he looked familiar.

I encountered these two people when I was receiving treatment from Doctor Ye.

Later, this woman even brought her own father to block her older brother and his family at the military compound, trying to arrange a marriage between them.

She also heard Zhang Lei tell her older brother and sister-in-law that Bai Zhi was originally betrothed to Zhao Kai by her stepmother, and her younger sister originally planned to impersonate Bai Zhi and marry Lu Ye.

Later, for some unknown reason, Bai Weiwei married Zhao Kai first, which allowed Bai Zhi to remarry.

Zhang Lei didn't explain the specific reason at the time, only that Bai Zhi and Bai Weiwei were like oil and water.

Lu Ya had also gossiped about this at home.

Wang Shufen squinted at Bai Weiwei, her eyes dark and gloomy.

This woman was just spouting alarmist rumors, saying that Lu Hai was going to be imprisoned.

That's utter nonsense.

Is she planning to work as a nanny at her house because she wants to dump her own man and then set her sights on Lu Ye?

She'd seen this kind of scenario—a younger sister eyeing her older sister's man—many times before.

Besides, she almost married Lu Ye before.

"You, Bai Weiwei, you've got some nerve!" Wang Shufen walked up to her, furious. "You just said you wanted to work as a nanny at my house, what are you really up to?"

They even spread rumors about her daughter and son!

When Wang Shufen suddenly spoke to her, Bai Weiwei immediately focused her attention on her and hurriedly said, "Madam, I didn't have any ulterior motives. I just wanted to make some money."

"Is that so?" Wang Shufen sneered. "Are you sure you're not after your brother-in-law?"

Wang Shufen's eyes blazed with fury, her tone extremely sharp, "Don't think I don't know you. Aren't you Bai Zhi's stepmother's daughter? I've heard people say that you tried to impersonate Bai Zhi to marry Lu Ye, but then you slept with another man first. Now, are you jealous because this man is incompetent and impotent, and Bai Zhi married well? Are you trying to break up her marriage?"

"I............" Who wants to break up her marriage?

She just wants to make some money, okay?

Wang Shufen glanced at her with disdain and sneered, "What do you mean, 'you'? Take a good look at yourself. Ugly is one thing, but you have no skills to rely on, and you're a divorced woman. How can you compare to Bai Zhi? You're full of bad intentions."

"You're only good enough for this country bumpkin. Don't get any wild ideas."

Wang Shufen threatened her fiercely, "If you want to cause trouble, the Lu family will not let you off the hook."

After speaking, she frowned and looked at Zhao Kai, her tone commanding, "You, keep an eye on your wife, don't let her go out and cause trouble. Bai Zhi has long since severed ties with you poor relatives, don't even think about harassing her. The Lu family's door isn't for just any Tom, Dick, or Harry."

Upon hearing Wang Shufen's words, Zhao Kai's expression darkened further. He gritted his teeth and accused, "So, you wanted a divorce from me because you were plotting to break up Bai Zhi's marriage and marry Lu Ye?"

Zhao Kai looked at Bai Weiwei with a pained expression and shouted, "You wretched woman, no wonder you're slandering me and making me sound like I'm worthless."

Taking the opportunity, Zhao Kai berated Bai Weiwei, cleverly avoiding the question about his own function. He grabbed Bai Weiwei's arm, angrily saying, "Come on, come back with me."

After Wang Shufen's interruption, the onlookers shifted their focus from Zhao Kai's impotence to Bai Weiwei's promiscuity.

They pointed fingers and berated Bai Weiwei for being unfaithful, promiscuous, and complaining that she wanted to divorce her husband to break up her sister's marriage because she thought he was no good.

Bai Weiwei was utterly speechless at this point.

She did have an ulterior motive in approaching Wang Shufen.

But it's definitely not what she thought.

She was only interested in making money; she had no designs on Lu Ye.

The psychological trauma that man caused her in her past life still haunts her nightmares.

How could she possibly want to steal him away from Bai Zhi?

Besides, she was self-aware. In her past life, Lu Ye hated her so much. In this life, he and Bai Zhi were deeply in love. How could he possibly be interested in her?

If she had money, what kind of handsome young man couldn't she find?

Why would I need to fantasize about that kind of gloomy man?
