What scandal?
Yan Xi had no idea what scandal she was involved in.
Seeing Yan Xi's innocent expression, Li Qin knew that Yan Xi hadn't checked the trending searches for the day.
Li Qin's heart swelled with smugness.
She dangled her phone in front of Yan Xi. Yan Xi only caught a glimpse of a large-scale photo, but Li Qin's phone moved so fast that Yan Xi couldn't see anything else clearly.
Yan Xi couldn't help but frown. Her eyes fixed on Li Qin, she questioned, "What do you mean by what you just said?"
"Exactly what it sounds like."
Yan Xi tried to snatch Li Qin's phone, but Li Qin seemed to have anticipated this. As Yan Xi moved to act, Li Qin pulled her phone back. Then, she nudged her stomach towards Yan Xi and said triumphantly, "What? You turned Fu Yan Ting into this, and now you want to harm my unborn child?"
Yan Xi frowned.
Li Qin's words had already convicted Yan Xi before she had even done anything.
Yan Xi admitted that Fu Yan Ting's current state was indeed her fault, but she had never intended to harm Li Qin's unborn child. Yan Xi just wanted to know what news Li Qin had just shown her and how it was related to her.
It wasn't just Li Qin's words; the strange looks the nurses gave Yan Xi that morning also deepened Yan Xi's confusion about what had happened.
Fu Wen Hai, who had been standing silently at the hospital room door, coughed twice, announcing his presence.
Yan Xi finally turned her attention to Fu Wen Hai. Fu Wen Hai then adopted the air of an elder and said earnestly, "Miss Yan, I know you might have been framed."
"Wen Hai, why are you explaining so much to that little slut? In our Fu family, when has such a character ever been allowed to marry in?"
Fu Wen Hai shot Li Qin an annoyed glance and snorted, "As an elder, you should say less."
Yan Xi coldly swept her gaze over Fu Wen Hai and Li Qin. These two were a perfect match, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, their coordination seamless.
However, Yan Xi was not easily fooled.
Yan Xi looked coldly at Fu Wen Hai. Since Li Qin was unwilling to speak, she would let Fu Wen Hai do it.
Yan Xi turned to Fu Wen Hai and said calmly, "Explain it clearly to me. What do you mean by 'framed,' and what happened to me?"
"Wen Hai, listen to her! This little bitch's words admit that she did it. I told you this has something to do with her!"
"Shut up."
Yan Xi didn't usually use such crude language, but Li Qin was simply unbearable. Relying on her elder status, she spoke sarcastically and lacked any semblance of maturity.
Li Qin had witnessed Yan Xi's ruthlessness. Yan Xi and Fu Yan Ting were alike in their fierceness; they wouldn't spare even themselves when pushed.
Li Qin was genuinely afraid. In any case, Yan Xi could no longer marry Fu Yan Ting. Even if Fu Yan Ting didn't care about Yan Xi's dark past, the Fu family was a prominent clan and would never tolerate a woman with such a tarnished reputation marrying into the family.
Therefore, Li Qin's goal had been achieved. Since that was the case, Li Qin decided not to bicker with Yan Xi.
With that thought, Li Qin's lips curved slightly, and she stopped speaking.
Fu Wen Hai said sternly, "Miss Yan, our Fu family is clean and upright."
This statement was already telling Yan Xi that she was no longer clean.
Yan Xi wasn't stupid; she understood the subtext of his words.
Yan Xi glanced at Fu Wen Hai, hoping he would explain clearly.
Fu Wen Hai took a deep breath and explained, "Miss Yan, I know you were framed, but the Fu family has its rules. I hope you can understand."
"So, what exactly happened to me?"
Yan Xi still didn't know what had happened to her. She was just hearing them talk about these irrelevant things, and she was still completely clueless.
"I think you're faking it."
Li Qin interjected, unwilling to be outdone.
Fu Wen Hai gave Li Qin a look.
Li Qin, intimidated, dared not say anything more.
Fu Wen Hai sighed helplessly, staring at Yan Xi. After a long pause, he finally spoke, "Miss Yan, if you truly want to know what happened, I advise you to check today's trending searches."
It was ironic. Yan Xi wasn't part of the entertainment industry; how would she know which trending searches she was on?
Despite thinking this, Yan Xi obediently opened her phone and went to Weibo. Today's trending searches were about Yan Xi's illicit affairs with men.
Seeing such news, Yan Xi couldn't help but frown. She stared intently at her phone for a long time, unable to snap out of it.
The woman in the video was her, but she didn't know who the men were.
However, Yan Xi had never taken such photos or videos. Where did these trending searches come from?
Even if someone wanted to harm her, they should at least have concrete evidence.
Yan Xi stared fixedly at the video, unable to recover for a long time.
Seeing Yan Xi's expression, Li Qin said impatiently, "Wen Hai, I told you this little bitch would pretend. Look how innocent she's acting. If it weren't for these photos and videos, we would have been deceived by her gaze even if she was trending."
Now, Yan Xi just wanted to know what was going on with this video and these photos.
Yan Xi was no longer in the mood to argue with Li Qin about what she was saying.
Yan Xi just wanted to understand what was going on.
Why, out of the blue, would such a heinous video of her be taken?
Seeing Yan Xi's complexion turn grim, Li Qin felt incredibly happy. Usually, Yan Xi, relying on Fu Yan Ting's backing, never treated her as an elder. Now that Yan Xi was in a predicament, how could Li Qin miss such an opportunity?
"I told you, a woman like you, who is not virtuous, would never willingly marry Fu Yan Ting. Perhaps when Fu Yan Ting was in a coma five years ago, you were already sleeping with other men when you married him. I heard you were pregnant back then. Perhaps that child was also a bastard from outside. Fortunately, Fu Yan Ting had the foresight not to let you give birth to that child. Otherwise, he would be the biggest joke in Yan Cheng right now."
Li Qin was also a woman, and she knew very well how to rub salt into Yan Xi's wounds.
Hearing Li Qin's words, Yan Xi couldn't help but frown.
Just as Yan Xi was about to retaliate, her phone rang. She took it out and saw it was He Yun calling. She hung up.
