"Second Aunt, so you're here too. Why did you even move in here?" Mo Zihan was quite surprised to see Wang Lianhong in the room. Although surprised, she still asked with a sneer on her face.
Mo Jiugong had three sons. The eldest son was Mo Lingshan, who was Mo Zixun's eldest uncle. He had a son and a daughter, and the daughter was Mo Zihan.
The second son was Mo Lingfeng, who had only one daughter, Mo Zixun. The third son was Mo Linghai, who had a son.
Just like any family with complicated relationships, the three sons of Mo Jiugong had been in a state of open and covert struggles to compete for the position of the future family head.
However, due to Mo Zixun's situation, Mo Lingfeng had already withdrawn from the competition. He was an honest and timid person and was often looked down upon even by juniors like Mo Zihan.
Fortunately, Mo Lingfeng had a strong wife. In the past, when Mo Lingfeng was constantly suppressed by his elder brother Mo Lingshan, Wang Lianhong had often fought back. So, these two families were also secretly competing fiercely, with a facade of harmony but a heart of discord.
"What do you three want?"
Wang Lianhong was extremely embarrassed and felt an unprecedented sense of distress.
Since the day she married into the Mo family as a daughter-in-law, she had never been so humiliated. Now, seeing this eldest niece, she felt inferior.
And all of this was because of Ye Feng. She couldn't help but feel an even deeper hatred for Ye Feng in her heart.
"Nothing much. Is Mo Zixun here?" Mo Zihan tilted her head to look inside.
"Yes! Do you need something from Xun'er?" Wang Lianhong asked with a frown.
"Hehe, of course. I won't go in. Second Aunt, ask her to come out." Mo Zihan had a look of disdain on her face, as if entering such a room would dirty her feet.
"Mo Zihan, what are you doing here?"
At this time, Mo Zixun, who was on the sofa, also saw these three people. She frowned and walked over.
"Mo Zixun, what do you think I'm doing here? Don't you know what you've done?" Mo Zihan immediately started to taunt Mo Zixun when she saw her, and the sneer on her face grew even stronger.
"What have I done?" Mo Zixun was puzzled.
"Mo Zixun, stop pretending. You stole my things and are still playing innocent here!"
Suddenly, Zhu Xiaoli stepped forward and pointed at Mo Zixun viciously!
Whoosh!
These words immediately shocked both Wang Lianhong and Mo Zixun!
"What did you say? Who stole your things?" Mo Zixun thought it was absurd, as if a basin of dirty water had been poured on her from the sky.
She had always been an upright person. Things like stealing, cheating, and abducting were things she would never do in her life. Now, Zhu Xiaoli was actually openly accusing her?
"Still not admitting it? Look at this box. I found it in the drawer of your office!" Zhu Xiaoli suddenly took out a jewelry box and showed it to everyone.
"There's a jade pendant of mine in it, a birthday gift from my boyfriend! I was wondering why I couldn't find it all morning. It turns out you stole it and hid it in the drawer! Fortunately, I was careful after you got off work and secretly opened your drawer to have a look. Sure enough, I caught you red-handed!" Zhu Xiaoli shouted.
"Stop spitting blood!" Mo Zixun was even angrier upon hearing this: "I've never even seen this box. Why do you say I stole it?"
At this time, because these women were arguing so fiercely, many neighbors upstairs and downstairs also heard the commotion and poked their heads out one after another.
This made Mo Zixun extremely annoyed. After all, she, Ye Feng, and her parents lived here. Zhu Xiaoli was shouting and slandering her out of thin air like this. How would the neighbors view her in the future?
Once involved in such a thing, it was very difficult to clear one's name!
And this was exactly the purpose of Mo Zihan and Zhu Xiaoli!
Stealing was not a good thing to be associated with. Once it was publicized widely, it would be a stain for a lifetime!
They were now coming to Mo Zixun with such confidence, slandering her for stealing. Even if Mo Zixun was in the right, she couldn't explain herself and could only be slandered by them out of thin air.
"Good for you, Mo Zixun. You still won't admit it even now. I've already said that I found this myself from your drawer. What are you still arguing about? I can't believe that you pretend to be so noble on the surface, but behind the scenes, you're a shameless slut!" Zhu Xiaoli scolded with an even shriller voice.
"Zhu Xiaoli, shut up!"
Mo Zixun was trembling with anger. She had never been wronged like this before. In a fit of rage, she pointed at Zhu Xiaoli's nose and said: "I've already said that I've never seen this box. If you suspect me, then call the police! Why are you framing me for something I haven't done?"
"Ha! Call the police? You think I don't want to?"
Zhu Xiaoli said arrogantly: "If it weren't for Hanhan's concern for the company's reputation, afraid that people would know there was a scandal in our fine Lavender Company, I would have called the police to arrest you long ago. How dare you be angry with me now? I'm really surprised. You're Hanhan's cousin after all. Can't you even be influenced by good company? You look like a vixen, and your hands and feet are not clean at all!"
Seeing her good friend speaking so plausibly and almost rendering Mo Zixun speechless, Mo Zihan couldn't help but secretly give her a thumbs-up in praise.
"Zhu Xiaoli, don't go too far!" Mo Zixun was really about to faint from anger. She never expected that Zhu Xiaoli and Mo Zihan had colluded from the beginning to slander her and ruin her reputation. She was just angry that such dirty water had to be poured on her.
"Are you still being stubborn?"
Zhu Xiaoli scolded angrily. Then, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, she picked up the box and said to the neighbors upstairs and downstairs: "Everyone, come out! Have a look! This woman stole my things. Now that I've come to her, she still refuses to admit it and denies it firmly. She's really something! I have proof. I found it myself in her drawer, and she's still pretending here. Isn't it funny?"
Those neighbors were already watching the fun. Hearing this, they all started to mutter with ill intentions.
After all, in such a matter, it was either black or white. Moreover, Zhu Xiaoli was so confident that it was hard not to believe her.
"Hey, I just found out today that such a beautiful woman moved in downstairs."
"Being beautiful is useless. She's still a thief!"
"Tsk tsk, this is really 'you can't judge a book by its cover'."
"By the way, was it this woman and her husband who were fighting in the community yesterday? I thought she looked familiar. I was there at the time. I heard people say that her husband seemed to be a fool..."
"Hey, they're really a match made in heaven. One is stupid, the other is a thief. The poorer they are, the more desperate they become..."
"It's so embarrassing. How could we have such neighbors? If this gets out, I'll be too ashamed to show my face! With her figure and looks, if she wanted money, it wouldn't be hard. She could just sell herself. Why steal?"
