Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 389: How Can You Be Unfaithful?!

"Oh, it’s you..." Su Yijia suddenly remembered who this person was. However, she and the original owner hadn’t exchanged more than ten words, so she had no idea why this girl had come to find her.

Seeing that Su Yijia finally recalled her, Tai Liyan arrogantly lifted her chin, sizing Su Yijia up before her expression shifted to one of complete disdain.

Su Yijia felt perplexed by her dramatic reaction. Just as she was about to speak, Tai Liyan accused her, "It’s only been a few months, and you’ve changed so much! It must have cost your husband a lot of money!"

???

So this was another one of Qin Kaize’s bad romances? Wasn’t he mostly in Fu Province? How could there be any bad romances in Hu City?

Besides, Qin Kaize was six years older than her and a full eight years older than this girl—where would he have picked that up?

"I spend my husband’s money—what does that have to do with you?" Su Yijia’s tone turned sharp.

But instead of feeling ashamed, Tai Liyan grew more assertive. "I heard from Xinyue that your husband is a hero who protects the country, but unfortunately, he’s bedridden due to an injury. I used to admire you, thinking that although you bullied Xinyue, you were a kind girl at heart. But now, how can you be so shameless, using your husband’s benefits while flirting with other men? How can you even show your face?!"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, her little face flushing red, as if she was about to lash out at Su Yijia.

"Is it possible that the man who just dropped me off is my husband?" Su Yijia tilted her head, bemused.

Although Tai Liyan clearly didn’t understand anything and was just causing trouble, her sense of justice was kind of admirable, which made it hard for Su Yijia to stay angry.

"Impossible!" Without a second thought, Tai Liyan immediately dismissed it. "Xinyue said that she’s not just your sister but also your sister-in-law. She mentioned that your husband’s injury is so severe that he’ll never recover, and you’ll have to take care of him for the rest of your life. But look at you now! Not only are you squandering his benefits, but you’re also looking for men outside while participating in the National College Entrance Examination. Even if your grades are poor, what if you actually get into university? Are you planning to abandon your husband?!"

"A brain is a good thing; I think you should have one," Su Yijia didn’t want to argue about such trivial matters and turned to leave.

But Tai Liyan wasn’t willing to let it go that easily. She hurried after Su Yijia, grabbing her hand. "You’re feeling guilty and want to run away? I won’t let you betray our great hero, no matter what!"

Su Yijia looked at the hand gripping her wrist and wanted to be angry. But hearing her righteous words and her determination to not let any mistakes slide, she suddenly felt deflated.

"The man you saw is my legitimate husband. If you don’t believe me, after the exam, come with me, and we can show you our marriage certificate," Su Yijia explained patiently.

"Really?" Tai Liyan hesitated for a moment. "But didn’t Su Xinyue say..."

"Is everything she says true? You’ll see for yourself later," Su Yijia interrupted, her tone slightly dismissive.

"What if you do run away? How would I find you?" Tai Liyan asked cautiously.

"You can follow me to my exam venue to confirm where I’m taking the test. After all, the National College Entrance Examination has just resumed; do you think I would give up such an opportunity? Moreover, you know my name and my husband’s identity. If I ran away, that would mean I’m guilty. You could just report me to the police," Su Yijia replied.

She hadn’t expected to be teaching someone how to keep tabs on her one day. Fortunately, this girl seemed a bit simple-minded and didn’t have any ill intentions. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so easy to talk to.

"That makes sense," Tai Liyan quickly realized, nodding in agreement.

Watching Su Yijia turn again, Tai Liyan followed for a bit but couldn’t help asking, "What about Xinyue? Her grades were pretty good, and she just graduated. Since you can participate in the National College Entrance Examination, your family should have no reason to stop her from taking it."

"She’s probably in the cemetery," Su Yijia replied casually.

"What did you say?" Tai Liyan couldn’t believe her ears.

"She was sentenced to eat peanuts after the Mid-Autumn Festival for committing a crime; she should have been buried by now," Su Yijia clarified.

Tai Liyan felt a chill run down her spine, disbelief written all over her face. "How is that possible? Xinyue is such a good person; how could she commit a crime?"

"I think your brain isn’t just slow; your eyesight might be poor too. I’ve told you what happened, and if you don’t believe me... you’ll just have to go to the police station to ask. I can’t prove anything," Su Yijia shrugged, searching for her exam room.

Tai Liyan followed her in a daze. After a while, she suddenly grabbed Su Yijia, who was wiping the desks.

"What about your parents? I went to your house last month to find Xinyue, but no one answered after I knocked for a long time. The neighbors wouldn’t respond to my questions either."

"They also committed a crime and went to eat peanuts after the Mid-Autumn Festival," Su Yijia said, feeling uncomfortable with others referring to those people as her parents. But she didn’t want to explain her situation too clearly.

Hearing this, Tai Liyan took several steps back in shock. She looked at Su Yijia as if she were staring at a living ghost, her face full of terror.

"How... how did they all end up in trouble?" Tai Liyan stammered nervously.

Su Yijia innocently looked up at her. "How would I know why they committed crimes, and particularly those of the kind that cause harm for profit?"

Did they harm your husband? Tai Liyan immediately thought of this possibility.

After all, when it came to money, those with benefits would certainly have the most wealth. There was a wounded veteran in their housing complex who supposedly received nearly a thousand yuan for his injury.

And that person looked no different from a normal person, while Su Yijia’s husband was bedridden for life—how much could that cost?

So they were all sent in by Su Yijia?!

Realizing this likely scenario, Tai Liyan felt her legs go weak.

Fortunately, she managed to grab onto a nearby desk, preventing herself from falling.

If she had known that Su Yijia was such a terrifying person, she would have never dared to meddle in her affairs.
