Reborn on My Wedding Night: This Time, I Won't Fail My Soldier Husband
She felt no sympathy for Jiang Xiulan.
It was just that compared to her disgust for Jiang Xiulan, Jiang Yuexi was even more nauseating.
"Sister Shuyao, I'm sorry."
Just as the onlookers were watching the drama unfold and Political Commissar Zhu's furious fists were barely under control, a delicate, soft voice drifted over: "Sister, Brother-in-law, it's all my fault. I did the wrong thing, and it's only right that Sister Shuyao treats me this way."
Jiang Yuexi's eyes were red and swollen; she looked as if she had been crying for the better part of the day.
She knelt down with a submissive air: "Sister Shuyao, I won't argue about the mistakes I made in the past, but I have already changed. Can't someone who has done wrong be given a chance to turn over a new leaf?"
Anyway, no one knew that she was the one who had instigated Jiang Xiulan to write the anonymous report letters; even that fool Jiang Xiulan hadn't realized it.
Other than the incident where she was exposed for drugging Lu Yuzhou, she had no other leverage in Dong Shuyao's hands.
The moral weight of a 'prodigal returning' was enough to move the onlookers.
In everyone's eyes, Jiang Yuexi had always been a poor, pitiful girl oppressed by her older sister.
With her crying and admitting her faults, everyone felt that Jiang Xiulan must have forced her into it.
"Shuyao, why don't you just let it go! She probably didn't mean it."
"Jiang Xiulan is indeed both stupid and malicious, but we know what kind of person Yuexi is. She must have had her own unspeakable difficulties."
A girl living under someone else's roof, even if she didn't want to do those low-down things, she had no choice in the matter.
Jiang Xiulan stood there, feeling that after her sister had spoken just a few words, the way the people around her looked at her was filled with much more malice.
But for the moment, she didn't know why.
She only assumed it must be Dong Shuyao spouting nonsense, turning the compound neighbors against her.
