Chapter 132: Chapter 132 Apology

As expected by Xu Ke, it wasn’t long before Lin Mengyao appeared at the staircase, with Li Lihua holding her arm, complaining about Xu Ke right in front of him.

"I told you men can’t be trusted, but you wouldn’t listen. Look at him today, as soon as he came back, he looked at me like I was nothing. If you don’t get the house, today it was a servant he stood up for to scold me, tomorrow he might just have someone kick me out when you’re not around." Li Lihua clung to Lin Mengyao’s arm, occasionally pretending to wipe her eyes as if she suffered a great injustice.

As Li Lihua twisted the facts, Sister Zhou, unlike Xu Ke, wouldn’t sit silently and let Li Lihua smear her. During her stay at the villa, Li Lihua caused all kinds of trouble, and Sister Zhou was already fed up with her in her heart.

"Madam, what Mrs. Lin said isn’t true at all. Mr. Xu didn’t scold her; it was Mrs. Lin who insulted Mr. Xu first. I couldn’t stand it and spoke up a bit. Mrs. Lin slapped me without a word, which Mr. Xu saw. He stood up for me and asked Mrs. Lin to apologize to me, but she refused and came running up to you."

Sister Zhou, fed up with Li Lihua’s nonsense, straightforwardly recounted the events in front of everyone, without giving Li Lihua a chance to interrupt. By the time she could, Sister Zhou had already finished speaking and stepped aside, leaving Li Lihua’s face flushed like a color palette in anger.

"Look at the kind of maid he hired, with a mouth this sharp, she should be a diplomat! Usually, she pretends to be so honest. You see how sharp she is now. How can I possibly compete with her?" Li Lihua complained furiously.

Had it not been for her recent reconciliation with Lin Mengyao and her desire to protect her image in Mengyao’s eyes, she wouldn’t have tolerated Sister Zhou flaunting in front of her and would have slapped her already.

"Is that enough? You know better than I do what’s really going on. Apologize to Sister Zhou." Lin Mengyao pulled her arm from Li Lihua’s grip, looked at her helplessly and said calmly.
