Chapter 314 Only fools rush to be at the forefront.
Lin Man’s feelings towards Si Chen were well-known to Tong Yao, but she didn’t expect that after all this time, Lin Man was not only still harbouring feelings for Si Chen but even dared to show up on their doorstep, knowing full well he’s her cousin’s husband.
This was crossing the line.
Did she view Tong Yao, the wife, as merely a decorative object?
It appears that the brazen mistresses are timeless. People with no moral compass can exist in any era.
Looking at the fuming Tong Yao, Si Chen couldn’t help but find her absolutely adorable. His thumb gently brushed her cheeks as he seriously reassured her, "Yaoyao, I may have no control over Lin Man’s actions and thoughts, but rest assured, I despise people like her. I would never do anything to hurt you. I’m loyal to our family. Without you, there wouldn’t be a home."
Between a husband and wife, nothing should be left unsaid. If speaking his mind would put Tong Yao at ease, Si Chen was more than willing to do so.
As for Lin Man, if she hadn’t shown up, Si Chen wouldn’t even remember that such a person existed in the world.
At his words, Tong Yao felt a little better. She had known for a long time that Si Chen and Lin Man had nothing to do with each other. She was just a little jealous and wanted Si Chen to alleviate her fears.
No matter how strong a woman is, she softens in front of the man she loves.
She deliberately let out a humph with a stoic expression, "You better remember what you said. There’s no need to be polite to Lin Man next time you see her. If she has the nerve to contact you, it means she hasn’t given up. Give her an inch, and she would take a mile with no reservations, doing anything she can to get closer to you. She might even try to get close to Xiaohui first to get to you. Be careful."
