Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 294

“You should take a look at that girl named Lily. If she weren’t really caught cheating in bed, why would she come here causing such a scene? Especially since Zhou Qiaoyu has always behaved poorly, it’s not surprising that something like this happened.”

When Sheng Fei came down to the courtyard while holding Lu Sanya, she overheard other villagers gossiping about Zhou Qiaoyu’s character.

Sheng Fei lifted the corner of her lips but didn’t pay much attention.

A few days later, she heard that Lily and Zhou Qiaoyu had gotten into a fight, and both ended up with injuries.

Since Zhou Qiaoyu had some backup, Lily ended up at a disadvantage.

Moreover, Zhao Zedong was also there supporting Zhou Qiaoyu, which indicated that Zhou Qiaoyu still had a few tricks up her sleeve.

Not long after, Zhou Qiaoyu came looking for Old Mrs. Lu again.

However, this time, Old Mrs. Lu refused to let Zhou Qiaoyu in because she was embarrassed by her behavior.

When Sheng Fei found out, she couldn’t help but laugh.

“Bad people will eventually get their karma!”

Sheng Fei sighed and went back to cooking.

The love triangle involving Zhou Qiaoyu, Zhao Zedong, and Lily had become quite the spectacle. During this period, Lily truly followed through on her threats and caused a lot of trouble.

Now everyone knew about it, even Sheng Fei had pieced together the closest version of the truth from the villagers’ snippets of conversation.

It seemed that the incident started because Lily and Zhao Zedong had been together for several years.

Not long ago, Zhao Zedong had some issues related to his job. He used to be a teacher but had been relying on Lily for support ever since. Recently, he had been living in a place rented by Lily.

Since Zhao Zedong was currently unemployed, Lily worked every day to support him.

Initially, everyone thought Zhao Zedong would be grateful for Lily’s support, but during the time she was at work, he started having an affair with Zhou Qiaoyu.

When Zhao Zedong went to see Lily, he happened to run into Zhou Qiaoyu.

At that time, Zhou Qiaoyu was in a bit of trouble, and after Zhao Zedong helped her, they became friends.

Actually at that time, Lily also knew Zhou Qiaoyu, but they had only met a few times and weren’t close at all.

She thought Zhao Zedong and Zhou Qiaoyu had nothing to do with each other, so she didn’t think much of it.

At that time, Zhao Zedong hid the fact that he was in a relationship with Lily from Zhou Qiaoyu, claiming to be single.

Zhou Qiaoyu was unaware that Zhao Zedong had a girlfriend, and Lily had no idea that Zhao Zedong was planning to cheat on her.

Zhao Zedong, a master of time management, skillfully deceived both women, so neither knew about the other’s existence.

They had no idea that Zhao Zedong had another woman.

Later, when they met on the street, they would nod and greet each other.

Zhao Zedong was charming and had a way with words, easily sweet-talking women. If he weren’t somewhat capable, how could he coax Lily to support him while she worked?

Especially since the two had even gotten engaged this year. If nothing unexpected happened, they were likely to marry by the end of the year.

But with this incident, their wedding plans were ruined, and the truth about Zhao Zedong and Zhou Qiaoyu’s affair came to light, causing quite a stir.

Zhao Zedong had spent all of Lily’s money. Fearing that he might feel insecure for being unemployed and alone, Lily often comforted him.

She assured him that no matter what happened to Zhao Zedong, she would never give up or abandon him.

Lily treated Zhao Zedong so well. If it were to switch to another man, he would surely be devoted to Lily.
