Free Web NovelChapter 436: Chapter 432: Disgrace
Seeing Xu Wenwan’s furious expression, the crowd’s gossip grew even louder, accompanied by animated gestures and expressions.
Xu Wenwan couldn’t take it anymore.
She roared directly at them.
"What nonsense are you all spouting? They’re the ones who wanted to look at me. How is that my fault?"
’It’s not like I asked those men to look at me, is it?’
"Hmph. If you didn’t dress like that, people wouldn’t be looking. You’re just shameless."
’To just walk up and ask a man if he’ll marry you... Is she crazy or something?’
The woman was on good terms with Chen JianShe’s mother and suspected Xu Wenwan had her sights set on him. She made a mental note to go warn his mother later.
’A troublemaker like that can’t be allowed to marry into the family.’
The village chief and his wife might not have said anything, but everyone in Qingshan Team knew that ever since this daughter of theirs had returned, the Xu Family hadn’t had a single day of peace.
Now, their reputation was in tatters as well.
The two daughters-in-law looked displeased.
As the two women argued, Chen Xiumin finally caught up. As the village chief’s wife, she was used to being held in high regard wherever she went. But this time, she wished she could just bury her face in the dirt.
’This is so humiliating.’
She had never been so mortified in her life.
’How could I have such a shameless daughter?’
Chen Xiumin somehow managed to force an awkward smile onto her face.
The woman who had just spoken looked a little sheepish. Scolding someone’s daughter right in front of her own mother made her feel a bit guilty. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Chen Xiumin paid no mind to the woman’s harsh words and grabbed Xu Wenwan’s arm directly.
"She’s just confused. Please, don’t mind her."
With that, she started dragging Xu Wenwan home.
All the way back, Chen Xiumin’s expression was as dark as a thundercloud. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
When Xu Wenwan came to her senses and tried to resist, she was pinched hard several times.
"If you don’t start behaving, I’ll beat you to death."
Xu Wenwan started to cry.
’These people... they’re all bullying me!’
’I’m so beautiful. Wouldn’t any family be lucky to have me as a daughter-in-law?’
’They’d gain so much face just by taking me out!’
’These people have such poor taste. They have no idea what a great catch I am.’
’I’m the female protagonist! I have the protagonist’s halo! Whoever marries me is destined for success. These country bumpkins just don’t get it. And they have the nerve to call me shameless.’
"Mom, there must be something wrong with their eyes. I’m going to go find some normal people to ask."
Chen Xiumin, who was walking beside her, finally snapped. She slapped Xu Wenwan hard across the face.
"You’re a complete and utter disgrace."
’Running around like a lunatic asking men if they want to marry her... what kind of normal person does something like that?’
’How will I ever be able to show my face in public again?’
Chen Xiumin clutched her chest, truly believing Xu Wenwan was going to be the death of her.
Ignoring Chen Xiumin’s furious expression, Xu Wenwan clutched her stinging cheek and stared at her mother in disbelief, her own face a mask of indignation.
But Chen Xiumin felt not a shred of pity.
"In a little while, you will be on your best behavior. If you pull one more stunt, I swear I’ll beat you to death today."
Xu Wenwan shuddered, and the pain in her back seemed to flare up. Seeing her own mother’s ferocious expression, she didn’t dare to cry. All she could do was purse her lips and desperately hold back her tears.
Chen Xiumin dragged her into her room and ordered her to change her clothes.
"Hurry up! Yun Hao is waiting!"
Once in her room, Xu Wenwan called out to her system.
"Is there any way you can help me?"
"No. Marrying Yun Hao is part of the main plotline."
Xu Wenwan was furious.
"What’s that supposed to mean? Nothing in this entire book is following the plot, but *I* have to stick to it and marry Yun Hao?"
"If that was the plan, then why did I absorb his good fortune?"
Back then, she had been angry that Yun Hao liked Gu Jiaojiao, and at the same time, she’d had the thought of discarding him.
’If I had known he was still going to be mine in the end, I definitely wouldn’t have absorbed his good fortune.’
