Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 1099: Chapter 1099: Lost in the Thick of Things

Xinyan didn’t expect something like this to happen; she had always noticed how much Jiang Peiqin cared about Ling Wenhao.

With such an event unfolding, it’s understandable how upset she must feel: "Peiqin, maybe things aren’t as bad as you think; you can’t judge people just by their appearance.

Things need to be investigated to determine if they’re really as that woman claims. A good reputation doesn’t necessarily reflect one’s true character; it might just be a facade."

Jiang Peiqin’s expression softened after hearing Xinyan’s words, and she gripped Xinyan’s hand tighter: "You’re right, Wenhao has always handled his alcohol well. How could this coincidence happen? I really must have been blinded by anger."

She seemed to recall something, looked up at Xinyan: "You come with me; I shouldn’t have left without listening to Wenhao’s explanation or left him there alone."

Xinyan saw she had realized something and helped her up: "Let’s go, I’ll take you there, and we’ll see what kind of mischievous girl she is."

Jiang Peiqin reported the location and looked out the car window lost in thought.

After a long while, she suddenly turned her head: "Yanyan, could it be Ye Dongyan who’s been up to something? Previously, her cousin met me and made some ambiguous remarks, and I thought at the time she was just jealous of her cousin. Now it seems she’s long targeted Ling Wenhao."

Xinyan turned the steering wheel, nodded: "That’s the blindness of the people involved; you’ve finally understood."

Jiang Peiqin stared at Xinyan and asked: "You mean you knew from the start there was something wrong with Ye Dongyan?"

Xinyan made a sharp turn and parked the car beautifully: "You know better than I do what kind of person Ling Wenhao is; his feelings for you are clear even to an outsider like me. How could he have done such a thing at a crowded gathering?

Moreover, you mentioned he’s always handled his alcohol well. Let’s go; it’s time to witness a miracle."

When they arrived, they saw a crowd outside the door, and inside Ling Wenhao’s voice was coming out: "Young lady claims I took advantage of her, but I didn’t. This room was arranged by Brother Hu; I didn’t pull her in here. Why is she here? It’s not like whatever she says is automatically true.

Also, don’t try to threaten me with my future; I won’t be coerced. I won’t marry someone with bad intentions, even if I lose my job."

A woman’s sharp voice shouted: "How can you talk like that? Everyone in the community praises our Dongyan; how come she’s bad in your eyes?

Let me tell you, in this situation, Dongyan’s at the greatest loss. If you don’t take responsibility, then we won’t hold back either, and we’ll directly call the police."

Xinyan pulled Jiang Peiqin in through the crowd.

Ling Wenhao immediately saw Jiang Peiqin and, ignoring the restraint of the people around him, rushed toward her: "Xiaoqinzi, I’ve truly been wronged; please believe me."

Seeing his anxious face, worried she wouldn’t believe him, Jiang Peiqin, though frustrated at his being easily manipulated, knew it was the result of his trusting others too much: "Let’s deal with the current situation first; I’ll settle things with you later."

Ling Wenhao was relieved to hear this: "No problem, Xiaoqinzi, don’t worry. My mind and body belong to you; she won’t pin anything on me."

Xinyan, in the meantime, noticed the problem. That girl, Ye Dongyan, really had some nerve. She dared to use such a shameless trick and even kept something in her pocket.

Maybe others wouldn’t notice anything, but Xinyan was a medical student, and she quickly detected the scent of the materials used in that pocket.
