The bamboo curtain was suddenly lifted before his voice faded away. Fang Yuan bellowed, "What are you doing? What a wonderful sister I have! You began to seduce my husband right after I left!"
Fang Zhen pulled her arm out of Zhang Yun's hands, ashen-faced. Liu'er stood at the side and said hastily, "Second Miss, you shouldn't make such a scurrilous accusation. Can't you see that it's Zhang Yun who is harassing my lady?"
How could Fang Yuan not know? She was outside, and she had heard everything Zhang Yun had said. Clenching her teeth with rage, not only did she hate Zhang Yun's infidelity, but she also resented and envied Fang Zhen.
Liu'er's scolding only intensified Fang Yuan's jealousy. In a fury, she replied, "I only saw my dear sister getting handsy with my fiance! And you! Was it you who asked Zhang Yun to talk to my mother and break off the engagement?"
Liu'er hurried to defend herself. "I only said it to vent my anger!"
