Chapter 265: Midnight Sobs
Zhang Lijuan, although feeling a bit embarrassed, agreed with Chen Jinlan’s words.
Even though Lin Fengying is kind to her now, no one knows what the future holds. If she ever uses the fact that she and Si Boyi ran away together against her, it won’t do.
And there’s Tong Yao too, she comes from a better background and she’s talented. If she is below Tong Yao in this aspect, she’ll forever be dominated by Tong Yao.
If the news spread to the village, it wouldn’t look good. She must cry a bit to let everyone know that when she married Si Boyi, she was a virgin.

The Si family’s three rooms have old wooden doors that serve no real purpose, so thin that a finger could slip through the cracks, offering no soundproofing. Otherwise, Lin Fengying wouldn’t have been able to hear Zhang Lijuan’s crying.
At first, she had no idea why Zhang Lijuan was crying. She thought the couple had had a quarrel. Now that she knows the reason, she can’t help but feel a bit upset.
She had been through this stage herself. How could she not know what it feels like?
It was painful, but crying all night was a bit too much and dramatically exaggerated. If word of this got out, people would laugh their heads off.
Fortunately, her daughter wasn’t at home to witness all this nonsense.
