Upon hearing this, Lu Zhi’s expression darkened. With a hint of thinly veiled anger, he walked over to her and firmly encircled her waist. He playfully nibbled her lips as a form of punishment and said, “On our wedding day, you’re already thinking about divorce? It seems I’ve spoiled you too much.”
“But, I can’t help it. Just look at all the relatives and friends who have witnessed you cheating with a maid. How can I ever face them again in the future?” Jiang Yining said with a hint of grievance as she sniffled.
The crowd awkwardly averted their gazes.
Lu Zhi scanned the room, and in a cold voice, he said, “Oh? When did I cheat? I don’t recall that. Where’s the evidence?” He turned his gaze to Chen Kexin and asked, “Why are you here?”
Chen Kexin clutched the bedsheet, lightly bit her lower lip, and said, “Brother Ah Zhi, don’t you remember? After your friends brought you back, I was helping you prepare the bed. You mistook me for Jiang Yining and embraced me… I had no chance to resist…”
“Hold on,” Lu Zhi raised his well-defined hand to interrupt her. “You think I could confuse you with Yining? There’s no resemblance between you two at all. Even if I were blind, I would never mistake you for her.”
Chen Kexin’s lips quivered, tears flowed down her cheeks, and her voice trembled as she said, “Brother Ah Zhi, how could you disown me? You promised to take responsibility for me.”
“If I had done something to you, I would undoubtedly take responsibility. However, I haven’t, and you can’t falsely accuse me. I was with my friends drinking earlier. They can vouch for me. Moreover, there are surveillance cameras installed on the estate, and the footage can be reviewed,” Lu Zhi said, looking at Jiang Yining as he held her hand. He solemnly declared, “Yining, you must believe me. I will never be interested in other women. In this lifetime, you’re the only one in my eyes.”
Jiang Yining smiled, caressed his cheek, and said, “Honey, I believe you, of course.”
Both sides stuck to their stories, and it was unclear who was telling the truth.
However, the majority of the people present sided with Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining. Even if Lu Zhi had actually been with Chen Kexin, what did it matter? She was just a mere servant.
Moreover, Lu Zhi could confidently present evidence.
Furthermore…
There was still a stranger in the bed.
How could that be explained?
No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like Chen Kexin had gone mad, thinking that she was marrying Lu Zhi and mistaking a stranger for him.
Chen Kexin, realizing that no one was speaking up for her, sobbed in despair and turned to Old Madam Lu, saying, “Grandma, I’m telling the truth, please believe me.”
Old Madam Lu frowned, remained silent for a while, and then said, “This matter involves the reputation of our Lu family, and it must be thoroughly investigated. Ah Zhi, call your friends here. Housekeeper, retrieve the surveillance footage.”
“Understood.”
Lu Zhi readily accepted the challenge.
The housekeeper received the order and turned to leave.
Chen Kexin stood on the ground trembling, looking at Gu Zhanqing’s expression.
Gu Zhanqing had a cold demeanor and turned to walk out.
Chen Kexin wanted to call him back, but in the end, she didn’t say a word.
Old Madam Lu felt a bit sorry for Chen Kexin and said, “You go to the bathroom first and change your clothes.”
“Okay.”
Chen Kexin nodded and turned to find her clothes.
But the clothes she had been wearing were all torn to shreds.
How could she possibly wear them?
Thinking about the passionate scene just moments ago, her face grew warm, and she stood there looking embarrassed and shy.
Jiang Yining noticed this and tugged at her lips, telling a servant, “Prepare a new set of clothes for her.”
“Yes, Young Mistress.”
Such a generous gesture only further endeared Jiang Yining to the guests.
Chen Kexin, on the other hand, was fuming with anger.
It was definitely because that wretched Jiang Yining had returned early, and Ah Zhi had left her behind and found someone to replace him.
If she were to return tomorrow morning, she would spend the entire night with Ah Zhi.
He certainly wouldn’t be so heartless.
Chen Kexin refused the clothes the servant brought because she didn’t want to owe Jiang Yining any favors.
And in that brief moment, Lu Zhi, who had gone out, had already returned with his people.
His several good friends were influential figures in A-City and carried a lot of weight.
Lu Zhi said, “You all, tell me, was I with you all the time just now?”
“Ah Zhi, did you get drunk or something? Of course, we were together, and we
even played dice..”
