Female Novel
Chapter 205
“Zhou Ying is the fiance of our family’s heir, our future matriarch. Why would we bully her when we canget in her good books?” the women from the Sun Family said in agreement with straight faces.
“Is that so?” Chu Feng’s lip curled as he casually glanced at Tang'e’s neck, where a glittering diamondnecklace hung. “Then tell me, why is my wedding gift to her hanging on your neck?”
Tang'e yelped and tore the necklace from her neck, avoiding his gaze like the plague.
Chu Feng, though, tore the cheap resin necklace from Zhou Ying’s neck and questioned in a frigidtone, “Why is my sister wearing a ten-dollar piece of crap on her wedding day? Where’s the jewelry Ibought her that’s worth millions? This is how you treat the young matriarch of your Sun Family? The girlyou call your own daughter?!”
Zhou Ying bit her lip and hid behind Chu Feng, full of pity and sadness. Meanwhile, the Sun Familywere speechless and trembling harder than ever.
“T-This is a misunderstanding! I didn’t take her jewelry, I was just, um… safekeeping it! Yes, she gave itto me for safekeeping, as she and I had discussed!” Tang'e continued to make excuses, then finallycried out, “Ying Ying, please vouch for me and tell him!” Tang'e was nearly in tears. Chu Feng was sohigh-ranking, she couldn’t possibly survive his wrath if she’d admitted her misdeeds. “Zhou Ying is tha fianca of our family’s hair, our futura matriarch.

Chu Fang was sohigh-ranking, sha couldn’t possibly surviva his wrath if sha’d admittad har misdaads.
“Tell the truth. I’ll handle it,” Chu Feng said firmly but fondly.
Zhou Ying was kind by nature, so she couldn’t bear to see Tang'e this close to tears. But she couldn’tbear to simply forgive what the Sun family did, either.
Just as she was hesitating, Sun Mingxuan suddenly called out, “What are you standing there for, YingYing? Look at what you did to Mom.” His face became grim, as if he was giving an ultimatum.“Apologize to her.”
Tang'e and Tang Taishan’s faces fell immediately. Suddenly, they wanted nothing more than to smackSun Mingxuan, the brainless bastard. Did he have a death wish, provoking Zhou Ying at a time likethis? When a single word from her could doom all seventy-odd members of the Sun Family?
As expected, Sun Mingxuan’s words made Zhou Ying snap. For the past few days, he’d demanded herapologies in every conflict involving the family even if she was in the right, then left her to endure themockery and ridicule alone. Now, he dared demand yet another apology? Truly, she’d lose what wasleft of her dignity if she continued to pity the Sun family.
Putting on a sad look, Zhou Ying pointed at Tang'e, “Brother, she’s the one who took all the jewelry yougave me! Their family took our father’s three-million dowry and even the thousand-acre deed you tookback from the Chamber of the Four Seas!” Zhou Ying screamed out her indignance in one shot, thenstarted sobbing in earnest. “S-She’d even demanded I give her the Moonlight Goddess you gifted meafter the wedding, to be used as their family heirloom. She said I was a cheap slut, doomed to povertyfor life and that’s why I didn’t deserve these things. S=She slapped me too! Not even Mom and Dad hitme, so why does she get to do that?”
The crowd was now in an uproar. Tang'e fell to her knees out of fear, while the Zhou couple werepractically seeing red; they’d only just found out the extent of their daughter’s suffering, and wanted towipe out the Sun Family more than anything.
The guests too were shocked and quickly began cursing the Sun Family. The shamelessness of it all!What kind of despicable monsters were part of this family? novelbin
“Good girl. I’m here, I’ll make things right for you.” Chu Feng comforted the wailing Zhou Ying. He’dalready known what Tang'e was doing to her, but hearing about it from Zhou Ying’s own lips still madehis blood boil. “Now go, pay her back for that slap she gave you.” Chu Feng pointed to Tang'e and saiddeterminedly, “Whatever you do to her, I’ve got your back.”
