Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: About My Future Husband's Ideas, I Advise You to Think Less About Them

Ming Yao's eyes and hands were quick as she grabbed Ming Wan's wrist.

Her grip was neither too light nor too heavy, yet it left Ming Wan unable to break free.

Ming Yao raised her eyebrows, "What's the matter, angry because you couldn't seduce your brother-in-law?"

Ming Wan startled.

Was it her illusion, or had the stupid Ming Yao suddenly changed her tune?

"Sister, I'm teaching you on behalf of our parents. They already know about you cuckolding your brother-in-law."

Ming Wan put on a concerned look for Ming Yao, "I'll slap you, and then you'll come home with me. When our parents see you've been hit, they might cool down a bit, and you won't have to face their scolding!"

Tsk tsk, listen to that.

Slap her and expect her to be grateful for it?

It's no wonder the old Ming Yao was always played by Ming Wan!

This White Lotus could really turn black into white!

Ming Yao scoffed and immediately slapped Ming Wan across the face.

The sharp smack echoed in the still air.

Ming Wan, her ears ringing and cheek burning from the slap, was momentarily dazed.

She looked at Ming Yao incredulously.

How dare this idiot lay a hand on her?

Just as Ming Wan was about to say something, she heard Ming Yao's indifferent voice, "Go home later and tell our parents that you tried to seduce your brother-in-law but failed, only to get slapped by your sister. I believe they will pity you even more and hasten to divorce me and Gu Siting, to welcome you through the doors of the Gu Family."

Ming Wan, "..." Did Ming Yao know she was planning to take her place as Mrs. Gu?

Ming Wan bit her lip hard, trying to suppress the urge to tear Ming Yao apart.

Under Ming Yao's cold gaze, she said softly and weakly, "Sister, you've misunderstood. I'm truly doing this for your sake. You despise and hate your brother-in-law so much and are eager to divorce him. This will surely anger Madam Gu of the Gu Family, as you were handpicked by her to be her granddaughter-in-law!"

"Our Ming Family can only be considered a small aristocratic family in Li City, and we will still need to rely on the Gu Family in the future. If you and your brother-in-law create a rift due to the divorce, and I can marry into the family, it would help ease the tension between our two families, and Madam Gu wouldn't blame you!"

"Sister, I know you love Brother Yixuan very much. Don't worry, I'll help you both!"

Ming Yao smiled without mirth, "Little sister, I've suddenly realized my husband is better than Xiao Yixuan. I'm not planning on divorcing him after all!"

"Sister, you're just joking with me, right?"

Ming Yao brushed her black hair, stirred by the night breeze, behind her ear, her beautiful face suddenly turned cold, "Enough, we're both old foxes, why bother with ghost stories with me?"

Ming Wan didn't expect that Ming Yao, who was so eager to divorce Gu Siting, would suddenly change her mind, leaving her unprepared and increasingly infuriated.

Could it be that this idiot finally saw Fourth Master Gu's worth?

Even if she did, Fourth Master Gu would never spare her a second glance!

Look at what a mess she's made of her reputation!

"Sister, did Brother Yixuan do something wrong that hurt you? Don't worry, if he's done something to wrong you, I'll certainly speak to him about it!"

Ming Yao cocked an eyebrow, "What is your relationship with Xiao Yixuan that he would listen to you?"

"He... he was my senior in high school, and I'm his sworn sister."

Ming Yao didn't want to argue further with Ming Wan. She leaned forward and whispered into Ming Wan's ear, "Don't play smart with me. I don't care whether you're Xiao Yixuan's sworn sister or lover. In any case, I advise you to stop fantasizing about my husband."

Ming Yao patted Ming Wan's delicate cheek, "Otherwise..." Ming Yao grinned, making a throat-slitting gesture.

Ming Wan was shocked stiff.
