Chapter 70: Long-Planned Scheme

Reborn on My Wedding Night: This Time, I Won't Fail My Soldier Husband

"Pfft!"

Dong Shuyao patted his back with indifference, comforting him, "What’s the big deal? I’d be surprised if they didn’t try to harm me!"

As long as there is a conflict of interest, there will be underhanded schemes.

Whether it’s fighting over a man or anything else, wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue.

Otherwise, why would she have agreed so easily to let Jiang Yuexi write a confession letter instead of making a public apology?

She even dragged Deputy Regiment Commander Zhang and Deputy Political Commissar Luo into the mess.

"You don’t blame me?"

Lu Yuzhou had assumed that after so much trouble, Yaoyao would surely be angry that he had dragged her into such a chaotic situation.

But as he looked intently into those gentle eyes, he couldn’t find a trace of blame.

"Don’t think that just because I didn’t fight back, it means I was afraid of them."

Dong Shuyao’s eyes curved into crescents, "I simply never fight battles I can’t win."

The first time was when Jiang Xiulan spread rumors that she was promiscuous, claiming she had been intimate with someone else and was just using Lu Yuzhou as a cover, all while framing Jiang Yuexi to take the fall.

After that incident, everyone already knew that Jiang Xiulan’s words were not to be trusted.

Moreover, as the Women’s Federation Director, she was supposed to provide help to fellow women, yet she used her position to spread rumors and ruin the reputation of an innocent female comrade.

The second time was when Jiang Yuexi drugged Lu Yuzhou, not only framing him for assaulting her but also trying to pin it on her own good friend, Qiao Damei.

Although the organization didn’t explicitly announce who had done the drugging, the broadcasting station had long since cleared Lu Yuzhou’s name.

Qiao Damei was not only released without charges, but word was she was now competing for the position of principal dancer in the Art Troupe.

Since Jiang Yuexi couldn’t even keep her own position as principal, wasn’t it obvious who had done the drugging?

Furthermore, just the day before yesterday, Jiang Xiulan was still shouting all over the courtyard that if Battalion Commander Lu didn’t divorce his wife and marry her sister, the matter wouldn’t be over.

Yet now, it was dead silent; not a peep could be heard.

It’s just that since the window paper hadn’t been poked through, everyone felt awkward about confronting them directly, so they only discussed it in private.

Dong Shuyao was only afraid they might turn over a new leaf or lie low; as long as they made a move, she would send them to hell.
