Ji Yao was shocked by Mother Lu's voice and came back to her senses. She turned to look at Mother Lu with an indifferent look in her eyes and had no intention of saying anything.

"You misunderstood. Mr. Xu and I only have a working relationship. I came out this time to find inspiration. Please don't spread rumors."

Ji Yao's voice sounded, and there was no feeling of anger in it, let alone any grudges.

Because since the moment of divorce, she no longer wants to worry about the Lu family's past with her.

When Mother Lu saw Ji Yao being so indifferent, she even thought that Ji Yao didn't take her seriously, so she shouted angrily.

"I'm afraid others don't know who you are. Don't I know better? You were hooking up with other men before you were divorced. Now, only a short time after the divorce, you dare to go shopping together."

After Mother Lu finished speaking, she looked up at Xu Ye.

Although she is also from the upper class circle, she doesn't have much contact with young people, so she doesn't know Xu Ye's identity.

But Ji Zimo knew.

Ji Zimo observed Xu Ye's expression. Xu Ye was not angry and just stood by as if watching the fun. This made Ji Zimo breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Xu Ye didn't seem to be completely on Ji Yao's side, nor did he speak for Ji Yao.

This is great news for Ji Zimo.

"Look, if you pass through my Lu family's door in the future, you must not be like Ji Yao. This woman is shameless!"

Mother Lu used Ji Yao's negative examples to teach Ji Zimo.

Ji Zimo was secretly happy when she saw Mother Lu looking so angry, but she still looked like a white lotus on the surface, trying to balance it out.

"Mom, don't talk about my sister like that. In fact, she is not as bad as we thought... Maybe my sister just wants to pursue her own happiness? We should also respect her choice."

This sentence seemed to be defending Ji Yao, but Mother Lu became even more angry after hearing it.

"What about pursuing your own happiness? I think she just wants to be with rich people, right? I saw before that you are essentially a money-worshiping girl. I was right!"

Seeing the two singing in harmony, Ji Yao frowned slightly in annoyance.

It wasn't that these words stung her heart, but she felt that these two people were buzzing in her ears like mosquitoes, which was quite noisy.

"Are you done? Please leave after you are done. I don't want to cause trouble with you here, otherwise some people will deliberately take pictures and spread them on the Internet to create rumors that I bully the elderly."

When Ji Yao said this, her eyes glanced at Ji Zimo, and the meaning of her words could not be more obvious.

In fact, she knew all these things, she just didn't want to deal with them.

As the saying goes, one thing more is worse than one thing less. Instead of telling them these useless truths here, it is better to borrow some time and make more money.

Time is money, and wasting time with them is a waste of money!
And rumors always tend to be self-defeating.

Ji Zimo's heart suddenly shook, but he quickly regained his composure.

Even if Ji Yao knew, so what, anyway, she was sure that Ji Yao had absolutely no evidence to prove that she did all this.

"What is your attitude? Aren't those things true? Do you think you can really get rid of yourself by pretending to be aloof? Let me tell you, the eyes of the masses are sharp."

After Mother Lu finished speaking, she snorted coldly and felt that what she said made sense.

In Ji Yao's view, this is just a matter of following others' opinions, and three people become a tiger. This is where the so-called online violence and public opinion come from.

Those who hide behind the keyboard never know how much harm they will cause to the person concerned after typing the keyboard.

Ji Yao looked unwilling to pay attention to them, which made Mother Lu feel like she had punched cotton, unable to exert any force.

This feeling was very uncomfortable. After thinking about it, she thought of Ji Yao's stain, pointed at Ji Yao and turned to look at Xu Ye. "I'm afraid you don't know the evil nature of this woman, right? When she was living in our Lu family, not only did she repeatedly ask for money from her family, she even stole the family's jewelry and sold it."

Mother Lu talked about these things again.

Ji Yao's fingers curled up slightly, but soon relaxed again.

She did not do this, and Xu Ye also knew the truth. She was not afraid that Xu Ye would misunderstand anything.

Lu's mother was really nervous for a moment when she saw Ji Yao, guessing that Ji Yao must have never told Xu Ye about this.

"Look, she hid all these things from you because she was afraid that you would be wary after knowing about it, and then she would not be able to make money from you."

Xu Ye looked at Lu's mother and smiled without saying a word.

He knew all these things, but he didn't intend to defend Ji Yao because he wanted to see how Ji Yao would react when faced with Mother Lu's slander.

Ji Yao listened to these slanders silently.

In the eyes of others, she did this, but she didn't get the money, and she never did such a thing.

But now that the sewage was poured on her, it was as if she had really done it.

I'm afraid that they will continue to hold on to this issue in the future, and no matter where they go, they will bring out this stain.

Ji Yao's eyes were dim, her eyelashes were drooping, and she was silent for about half a minute.

She raised her eyes again, and her eyes were still clear black, as beautiful and shiny as pure black glass beads.

"Speaking of which, I remember that you and Lu Jincheng have always been in love. Now that I don't stand in the way of things between you, I think you will be engaged and married soon, right?"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Mother Lu again.

"You really have a good daughter-in-law."

Ji Yao's previous sentence was not meant to be sarcastic, but in her opinion, it was the fact.

She could only lament Lu Jincheng's protection for Ji Zimo.

If she had been younger for a while, and if her love for Lu Jincheng had been stronger and more meaningful, maybe she would have spoken back to Mother Lu and explained her dirty laundry.

But now it seems there is no need.

Xu Ye knew but did nothing, he just wanted to watch the show.

As for the two people in front of them, they can think whatever they want. Ji Yao doesn't want to waste any more time.

Ji Yao did not expect that what she said sincerely would sound like naked ridicule to Mother Lu and Ji Zimo.

Because Lu's mother has always been very satisfied with Ji Zimo, but the marriage between the two has not been settled yet, which has always been a major worry for Lu's mother. She wants to have a grandson as soon as possible, but Lu Jincheng's attitude makes her confused.

"Why are you so weird here? It's only a matter of time before they get married. Unlike you, you are just a woman who was kicked out of the house."

Hearing Mother Lu's angry voice, Ji Yao was stunned for a moment and quickly reacted.

It has been a while since I divorced Lu Jincheng, but I haven't heard any news that they are getting engaged. Could it be that Lu Jincheng is unwilling?

Or did he discover that Tan Yuan is actually a person who thinks one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes?
Ji Yao raised her eyebrows slightly, becoming interested.
