Chapter 7: Childhood sweetheart, newlywed wife, whom do you trust?

Tang Mengying's voice was not loud, but Su Qianci's heart was already filled with mixed feelings.

In the previous life, Tang Mengying had burst in directly. At that time, Li Sicheng was taking a shower, and she loudly declared to Su Qianci that she had "drugged" and "seduced" her newlywed husband.

Li Sicheng, who already had doubts, became even more disgusted with her.

"Is there something?"

Li Sicheng still said the same thing.

Tang Mengying forced a smile and deliberately hid something behind her, shaking her head, "Nothing."

However, Li Sicheng's gaze fell on her hand behind her back, and quickly moved away.

Seeing that Li Sicheng didn't show any sign of suspicion, Tang Mengying became anxious and quickly threw away what she was holding, and the sound of something breaking came from the ground.

With a cry of surprise, Tang Mengying seemed to be startled and said, "Oh, what should I do!"

Li Sicheng glanced at the things on the ground and quickly saw the words on it.

It was the name of the most famous aphrodisiac nowadays. Although Li Sicheng had not studied it, he had heard of it!

This Tang Mengying actually carried such a thing with her?

As if afraid that Li Sicheng would misunderstand, Tang Mengying quickly waved her hand, "Brother Sicheng, don't misunderstand. This is not mine. I'm just keeping it for Qianci..."

"What are you keeping for me?" Su Qianci walked out from behind and took the thing from Li Sicheng's hand, opening it.

Tang Mengying forced a smile, "It's... the thing you left on the table last night. I was afraid Auntie would see it, so I put it away for you."

Li Sicheng's gaze, as sharp as a hawk, firmly caught Su Qianci.

In her heart, Su Qianci already had an answer.

One was a childhood friend, and the other was a newlywed wife she had only been with for three days. Who would she believe?

The answer was self-evident!

Feeling extremely unwilling, Su Qianci stood up from the ground, facing Li Sicheng's sharp gaze, and retorted, "What's wrong with me? It's you who came to knock on the door of a newlywed couple early in the morning. If others didn't know, they would think you had ulterior motives."

Tang Mengying's face turned pale. Was this really the same Su Qianci as before? How could she change so much in just a few days?

She had become calm, mature, and... smarter!

Without a sound, she shifted the topic, and the focus was quickly directed to Tang Mengying. This level of intelligence and emotional intelligence was completely different from the impression of that arrogant and willful girl.

Was it her illusion?

No, it was impossible.

This arrogant girl must be afraid by now!

After all, if Li Sicheng thought that she had drugged him, Su Qianci would have no chance to turn things around.

Everyone has a bottom line, and Li Sicheng's bottom line... is unfathomable!

However, any calculation would touch his sensitive spot.

No matter how big or small, nothing would be overlooked.

With a flash in her eyes, Tang Mengying looked aggrieved, "How could I have ulterior motives, Qianci? What do you mean by saying that? It's so hurtful!" With that, tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at Li Sicheng, crying, "Brother Sicheng, I'm sorry. I thought even if you married someone else, we could still be like before, but I didn't expect..."

Su Qianci's heart sank. What a cunning Tang Mengying!

In just a few words, it sounded like an explanation, but it was actually avoiding the real issue and shifting all the blame onto Su Qianci.

Sniffling, Tang Mengying hurriedly crouched down, "I accidentally broke this bottle. It wouldn't be good if the elders saw it, so I'll clean it up right away."

The more she spoke, the more she seemed to be aggrieved. Just as Tang Mengying was about to pick up the pieces, a cold and stern voice came from above, "Stand up."

Tang Mengying felt a glimmer of hope, but still wore a distressed expression as she pitifully picked up the glass shards.

Li Sicheng reached out and pulled Tang Mengying up, then looked at Su Qianci and ordered in a deep voice, "Clean it up."

"It's okay, Brother Sicheng..." Tang Mengying blinked her watery eyes, looking pitiful.

Su Qianci sneered inwardly, sincerely admiring, "So Tang Mengying had this level of skill five years ago. With such an opponent, her death was not in vain."
