Chapter 161 What did she use to threaten you?
This sound was like a boulder being thrown directly into a lake, instantly stirring up the tranquil banquet hall once again.
These guests don't care about saving face anymore; who cares about controlling their expressions? They're practically dumbfounded!
At his son's engagement party, Cheng Zhuoxing, the father, was caught having sex with his sister-in-law. His wife caught him in the act and broadcast the whole thing live on the banquet hall's big screen.
They must be blessed by the God of Gossip, otherwise how could they have been able to eat such high-quality gossip on the spot!
Logically, when caught doing something so shameful, the person involved should feel extremely ashamed and embarrassed, but Cao Ling in the picture seems to be relieved.
"Oh, it's Siyi. I thought it was someone else. You scared me to death."
Yin Siyi was also surprised by Cao Ling's reaction and looked at her incredulously:
"Cao Ling, do you know what you're doing?"
“I know,” Cao Lingtian replied shamelessly, “Isn’t it just sleeping with your husband?”
Cao Ling's answer left the guests at the scene speechless.
Has it gotten to the point where being a mistress is no longer shameful but rather something to be proud of? Why isn't anyone informing them?
"What is Cao Ling saying? Doesn't she have any shame?"
"Would someone with any shame act like this with their brother-in-law?"
"No, what I mean is, even the most shameless person wouldn't say something like that, right? She's making it sound like being a mistress is a perfectly normal thing."
Only An Ling could figure out Cao Ling's thought process at that moment.
Cao Ling believed that even if Yin Siyi found out, she wouldn't dare to expose it. After all, this was a huge scandal that would bring shame to Yin Siyi and the Yin family.
[No, where does she get the confidence that Yin Siyi won't reveal it? You guys are livestreamers, do you know that?]
[Besides, what's shameful about Yin Siyi? It's cheating and being a mistress that's shameful!]
The An family members listened and nodded.
It's true that many people feel ashamed when their husbands or wives cheat on them. I wonder when this trend will completely change. The people who should be shamed are the ones who betray their partners and destroy other people's families. Why should the victims feel ashamed?
Yin Siyi was so angry she laughed. She looked at Cao Ling's nonchalant attitude and was very puzzled.
Do you know what you're saying? What do you mean by "it's just sleeping with my husband"?
"Fine, even if you think being a mistress isn't a big deal, he's not just my husband, he's also your husband's brother!"
Even though your husband is dead, it doesn't change the fact that you're sleeping with your brother-in-law! And he has a family!
"Otherwise what? Would you dare to publicize these things?" Cao Ling continued shamelessly.
"What wouldn't I dare to do!" Yin Siyi replied coldly. "Since you dare to do such a thing, are you afraid I'll spread it?"
Seeing Yin Siyi's cold and unapproachable demeanor, Cheng Zhuoxing couldn't help but feel even more flustered.
He also noticed that Yin Siyi was holding up her phone, clearly filming a video, so he quickly tried to calm her down by saying nice things.
"Siyi, please don't be impulsive. Put your phone down first, okay? Let's talk this over. Things really aren't what you think."
Cao Ling, however, felt that Cheng Zhuoxing was far too cowardly. Yin Siyi would never spread this matter, after all, people from wealthy families care the most about their reputation.
Even if we take a step back and assume that this matter really gets out in the future, it will just give everyone more to talk about. Everyone knows that wealthy families are full of all sorts of scandalous gossip.
As long as you're not caught red-handed and "publicly executed," people will still be considerate of each other's feelings when they meet, and at most they'll gossip about it in private. What's there to be afraid of?
But Cao Ling forgot that the last couple who thought this way had been exiled to Africa by their family.
She said to Cheng Zhuoxing dismissively:
"Why are you so afraid? Today is her own son's engagement party. Do you think she would dare to expose this?"
"Your son is about to marry into the Jiang family. This is just an engagement banquet; the marriage isn't finalized yet. What if something goes wrong and your son's engagement to the Jiang family's eldest daughter falls through? Are you willing to give up this prize that's almost in your hands?"
“But I have nothing to lose. If you don’t delete the video you filmed, I’ll go to the banquet hall right now and tell everyone about my affair with Cheng Zhuoxing, and turn your son’s engagement party upside down!”
Cao Ling thought she was threatening Yin Siyi, but what she heard from the guests sounded incredibly ridiculous.
"Pfft, she even turned the engagement party upside down. There was no need for her to lift a finger."
"She thought Yin Siyi was filming a video? Little did she know, she was actually live-streaming!"
"How shameless! How could she say such a thing!"
Cheng Zhuoxing could no longer tolerate Cao Ling's self-righteousness.
After all, he and Yin Siyi had been husband and wife for so many years, and he understood Yin Siyi's personality. He knew that although Yin Siyi had a good temper, she was not a weak or easily bullied person.
Furthermore, he felt that he had fallen in love with Yin Siyi over the past two years, especially compared to Cao Ling's current behavior, Yin Siyi seemed much more pleasing to the eye.
He began to regret how he had been so blinded by love and seduced by Cao Ling's appearance back then; she was clearly just a pretty face with no brains.
No, she's even worse than a vase. At least a vase doesn't cause trouble, but Cao Ling is a real troublemaker!
Unable to contain himself any longer, he shouted at Cao Ling, "Shut up!"
"Siyi, it was Cao Ling who forced me to do this. She threatened to ruin Xiaojian's engagement party if I didn't come to see her today. I had no choice!"
Seeing her husband pleading so humbly and offering such flimsy excuses, Yin Siyi felt no pity whatsoever; instead, she felt even more sorrowful.
It seems that even after so many years of marriage, Cheng Zhuoxing still doesn't understand her at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used such a ridiculous excuse to justify himself. Does he think he's a fool who would be fooled by such words?
Yin Siyi's gaze towards Cheng Zhuoxing grew increasingly cold. "What did she use to threaten you?"
"What?" Cheng Zhuoxing was taken aback. "By ruining Xiao Jian's engagement party?"
“No,” Yin Siyi shook her head, “I’m asking, what could she possibly use to ruin Xiao Jian’s engagement party? How long have you two been in this relationship?”
This time, Cheng Zhuoxing finally understood what Yin Siyi meant, and his expression became even more unpleasant.
Yes, he could have used the excuse that he and Cao Ling had only been intimate today. After all, Yin Siyi had never found out about his relationship with Cao Ling before. If it was just once, maybe Yin Siyi could forgive him?
But now that excuse is no longer valid. After all, what else can Cao Ling use to threaten and ruin Xiao Jian's wedding? And why is her purpose in threatening me specifically to sleep with me?
If you break down these preconditions and present them to anyone, that person will be able to see that his relationship with Cao Ling didn't just begin today.
