Lin Jiaojiao walked step by step toward Lin Miaomiao’s bed. Under everyone’s shocked gaze, she reached out and grabbed Lin Miaomiao’s chin.
Her grip was so strong that the pain instantly twisted Lin Miaomiao’s delicate, innocent-looking face.
Ignoring everyone’s stares, Lin Jiaojiao smiled as she looked at Lin Miaomiao, making her scalp tingle with unease.
“My dear sister, if you hadn’t brought it up, I almost would have forgotten.
Those boys fought each other because you sent love letters to several of them in my name.
Then you deliberately let it slip so they thought I had been toying with them.
They couldn’t swallow their anger, so they blocked my way after school, demanding an explanation.
Then you conveniently showed up, stood on the moral high ground, and scolded me, earning all their sympathy.
After that, you played every one of them like fools, keeping one while eyeing another.
Some idiots even skipped meals every day just to save food for you, hoping to win your affection.
Tsk, if I remember correctly, you were only fourteen back then.
My dear sister, am I right?”
After speaking, Lin Jiaojiao shoved Lin Miaomiao away. Then she glanced toward the figure standing at the doorway, the corners of her lips curling into a meaningful smile.
“You’re lying! That’s not what happened!”
Lin Miaomiao immediately denied it.
Unfortunately, no one cared about her denial.
“So it’s true after all. Like mother, like daughter. She’s already plotting against her stepsister and seducing men at such a young age.”
“My goodness, this is the first time I’ve seen someone this shameless.”
“She already dared to book a room with a random man in broad daylight. Is there anything she wouldn’t do?”
Waves of ridicule and insults filled the room.
Lin Miaomiao instantly felt as if icy water had been poured over her. Her entire body trembled, and the finger she pointed at Lin Jiaojiao shook uncontrollably.
“Lin Jiaojiao! If Mom and Dad find out what you’ve done to me today, they’ll never let you off!”
Seeing her like this, Lin Jiaojiao’s smile became even brighter.
But the next words that left her mouth completely terrified Lin Miaomiao.
“Oh, and my dear sister, do you know what happens when someone deliberately slanders a soldier’s reputation?”
“W-What happens?”
Lin Miaomiao asked with a trembling voice.
“You go to prison.”
Those four lightly spoken words felt like a bucket of ice water dumped over Lin Miaomiao’s head.
If Gu Tingzhou really reported her…
She didn’t dare imagine the consequences.
Ignoring everything else, she wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, dropped to her knees before Lin Jiaojiao, and burst into tears.
“Big Sister, I’m sorry. I really didn’t know it would turn out like this.
You’re my sister. Please help me. Please say a few good words to Comrade Gu.
I’m still young. I don’t want to go to prison.
Otherwise, my whole life will be ruined.”
But neither Lin Jiaojiao nor anyone else responded.
Confused, Lin Miaomiao looked at Lin Jiaojiao.
She noticed Lin Jiaojiao staring fixedly in Liu Quan’s direction.
Following her gaze, Lin Miaomiao looked over.
Only then did she realize that because she had wrapped the blanket entirely around herself, Liu Quan’s completely naked body had been fully exposed in front of everyone.
“Ahhh!”
Lin Miaomiao let out another shrill scream that could split the heavens.
The deafening noise instantly startled Liu Quan awake.
Perhaps because Lin Jiaojiao had struck him rather hard earlier, his mind was still muddled even after waking up.
He wasn’t fully conscious.
“Damn it! It’s the middle of the night! Can’t anyone let me sleep? You’re so damn noi—”
Before he could finish cursing, he noticed the crowd filling the room.
He froze on the spot.
Without giving him time to react, Lin Jiaojiao immediately spoke.
“Liu Quan, do you know how serious it is to drug a soldier and a soldier’s fiancée?
If that’s proven, prison would be the least of your worries.
You could even face execution.
So you’d better think carefully before you speak.
Don’t be foolish and let yourself be used by someone with ulterior motives.
Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died.
Of course, if you’re simply here because the two of you booked a room together as a couple, then that’s a different matter.”
The moment he heard the words “prison” and “execution,” Liu Quan’s sleepy mind cleared completely.
He glanced at Gu Tingzhou, standing beside Lin Jiaojiao in his green military uniform, and instantly understood everything.
He had been used by that little bitch, Lin Miaomiao.
He wasn’t stupid.
He knew perfectly well that soldiers were not people to be messed with.
If he had known from the beginning that Lin Jiaojiao’s fiancé was a soldier, he would never have dared target her.
But regrets were useless now.
Finding a way out was what mattered.
And Lin Jiaojiao’s final sentence, deliberately spoken in a lower voice, gave him an excellent excuse.
Thinking this through, Liu Quan quickly grabbed a pillow to cover himself before smiling at Lin Jiaojiao.
“Comrade Lin is absolutely right. I don’t know anything about plotting against a soldier or his fiancée.
The only reason I came to the guesthouse today…
is because I like Lin Miaomiao too much.
Things simply got out of hand.”
“Mm, what a touching case of passion overcoming reason. I understand completely.”
Lin Jiaojiao smiled meaningfully as she looked at Lin Miaomiao.
Lin Miaomiao immediately exploded with rage.
“Liu Quan! What nonsense are you talking about?
When was I ever in a relationship with you?
You call this passion?
Take a good look at yourself! You think I’d ever fall for someone like you?”
Liu Quan sneered.
This pig-headed teammate wanted to die.
He didn’t.
No matter what, he had to make everyone believe they were lovers.
Without another word, he raised his hand and slapped Lin Miaomiao hard across the face.
“You little bitch! We’ve already slept together, and you’re still denying it?
You think you’re too good for me?
Well, I still slept with your worn-out body!”
“You’re the worn-out one! Your whole family is worn out!”
Blinded by rage, Lin Miaomiao completely lost her ability to think.
Cursing loudly, she lunged at Liu Quan, clawing and scratching him wildly.
The weak, innocent image she had carefully maintained vanished in an instant.
Within seconds, several bloody scratches appeared across Liu Quan’s face.
But in her fury, she forgot she wasn’t wearing a single piece of clothing.
As she charged forward, the blanket wrapped around her slipped gracefully to the floor.
By the time she realized what had happened and tried to grab it to cover herself, it was already too late.
Liu Quan immediately snatched the blanket for himself and wrapped it around his body.
At the same time, he repeatedly slapped Lin Miaomiao across the face.
Humiliated and furious, Lin Miaomiao ignored everything else.
She scratched, kicked, and fought desperately to take the blanket back.
Liu Quan was nothing more than a street thug.
Showing mercy to women simply wasn’t in his nature.
Already enraged, he began slapping her left and right without restraint.
Before long, Lin Miaomiao’s face had swollen into a pig’s head.
She refused to back down.
The two of them wrestled, fought, and struggled over the blanket, leaving everyone present utterly dumbfounded.
Of course, a few of the men couldn’t take their eyes off Lin Miaomiao’s naked body, practically drooling as they stared.
As for Lin Jiaojiao, the person at the center of it all, she watched the two enemies tear each other apart with a mocking smile.
How fitting.
Lin Miaomiao.
Liu Quan.
Please keep loving each other exactly like this.
Only then could the original owner’s spirit finally rest in peace.
“Enjoying the show?”
A deep, magnetic male voice suddenly sounded beside her ear.
There was an unmistakable hint of displeasure in his tone.
Displeasure?
