She arrived in Cangshan Town just at dusk.

At that moment, Xu Xingguang was finishing up, carrying a hoe on her left shoulder and Huo Wuyi in her right hand, returning from the direction of the town’s end. The work clothes with muddy trouser legs were worn with a sense of casual freedom.

She strolled leisurely towards the small courtyard under the setting sun, feeling quite content and at ease, which enraged You Mingyue greatly inside.

Since yesterday, she had been facing constant doubts from colleagues and netizens, as well as the snide remarks from the Chu Family. She hadn’t slept all night and was mentally chaotic at this moment.

Yet Xu Xingguang still had the mood to raise pigs and plant flowers!

Compared to this, You Mingyue felt she could die from anger.

Seeing that Xu Xingguang hadn’t even noticed her presence, You Mingyue seized the gap when Xu Xingguang turned her back to open the courtyard door, quickly jumped out of the car, and swung her bag towards Xu Xingguang’s head.

As if Xu Xingguang had eyes on the back of her head, her left hand suddenly relaxed, causing the hoe on her shoulder to vertically roll off.

The heavy iron hoe fell on You Mingyue’s instep, its sharp edge instantly piercing her skin. Blood gushed out, staining her white high-heeled shoes.

The hoe remained embedded in You Mingyue’s phalanges, causing tears to stream down her face from the pain, leaving her mind blank.

"Ah!"

You Mingyue squatted on the ground, looked up at Xu Xingguang with resentment, and cursed, "Xu Xingguang, you little bitch, did you do it on purpose?"

Xu Xingguang had already turned around, looking quite surprised at her, "I thought it was some clueless thug, seeing my youthful beauty, wanting to take advantage of me."

Xu Xingguang quickly bent down to pick up the iron hoe from You Mingyue’s foot.

With the hoe lifted off You Mingyue’s instep, it revealed the white phalanges hidden under the flesh and blood.

Upon seeing her foot bones, You Mingyue almost wanted to kill Xu Xingguang to vent her anger. "Xu Xingguang, intentional harm is a crime, I’m going to send you to jail!"

"Bullshit." Xu Xingguang held the hoe and calmly retorted, "Even if I injured you, it was self-defense. Only a thug with ill intentions would quietly approach others."

You Mingyue was aware of Xu Xingguang’s eloquence and knew she couldn’t win against her with words, so she had to swallow her anger.

You Mingyue shifted her position to sit on the courtyard threshold, glaring venomously at Xu Xingguang with a pale face, "Xu Xingguang, you’re the one scheming against me behind my back, aren’t you?"

Xu Xingguang pretended to be clueless. "What did I scheme against you? If you’re referring to the incident where I unintentionally revealed your biological father’s identity on your wedding day, then I admit to that. As for anything else, I haven’t done it, and I won’t admit to it."

"You’re the one talking nonsense!" You Mingyue’s voice just raised a bit, and more blood spurted from her instep.

She contained her anger, sneering as she said, "The plagiarism incident, you set me up, didn’t you?"

Xu Xingguang glanced at the lantern streetlight by the courtyard gate and shook her head, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Stop pretending!"

Angry beyond reason, You Mingyue subconsciously narrated the whole story.

She said, "On my birthday, you went to the Xu Family to move things, but somehow forgot to take your old sheet music book. From that day on, you’ve been plotting."

"Under the guise of moving, you inserted your composed piano pieces into that old sheet music book and pretended to forget it there. You deliberately waited for me to discover its existence, waiting for me to fall into the trap!"

"Also, you purposefully played ’Human World’ in the piano room, paving the way for today’s situation."

Xu Xingguang clicked her tongue in astonishment, "You Mingyue, you can mess with drugs, but you can’t mess with words."

Liu Mei lightly furrowed her brow, while Xu Xingguang, looking helpless, said, "Regardless of whether that sheet music was intentionally or accidentally left in the Xu Family, it ultimately belonged to me. May I ask, did I ever point a gun at your head and force you to plagiarize my work?"

"I didn’t, right."

"It’s clear that you stole my things and then falsely accused me of deliberately setting a trap for you. I won’t admit to something I didn’t do." Xu Xingguang looked innocent.

You Mingyue knew Xu Xingguang wouldn’t admit it.

Indeed, why would she admit to being a wicked, cunning woman?

She’s obviously a femme fatale of a level tens of times higher than a scheming girl!

"Xu Xingguang, you’re really malicious, scheming at every step. Since you woke up and returned to the Xu Family, I knew you weren’t going to let it go, turns out you were waiting for this moment."
