The Villain's Wife

The Villain’s Wife 550 All Their Faul

While Qiao Qiao is having a very difficult time dealing with Yu Jing, Lily was having the exact opposite. She was languidly sitting down in the velvet couch as she ate the mixtures of fruits on the table. She eyed the outdoor pool in front of her.

"It is getting hotter and hotter." She uttered and looked at the people standing to her left. She smiled. "So... Chef Yang... right? I don’t know if you remember me..."

"I do." Chef Yang Lichen interrupted Lily. His wizened face lightened as he continued, "I remember you like to play with stones."

Lily giggled. Chef Yang is someone that worked in the orphanage since Zhou Jingren was a child. She had met the man when she was a child, as she used to ask him for snacks.

"That’s good." She nodded and eyed the two younger males who looked exactly the same next to Chef Yang. "And you two should be... Lin Luyang and Lin Siyang? Twins?"

"Yes, Madam. I am Siyang." While the two of them have fair and almost the same facial features, Siyang is obviously a little leaner than his brother. "And this is Luyang." He pointed at his brother standing next to him. "He is a bit shy and is very silent."

"I understand." Because of her schedule, this should be the first time that Lily met everyone that Zhou Jingren hired for the house. "And you are Hou Qingya?" she eyed the younger woman. "How old are you?"

"I am nineteen." Hou Qingya answered, her head lowered as she avoided Lily’s gaze.

"Alright then... I hope we can all work together." She smiled and gestured for them to leave her. "Chef Yang... please stay." She uttered in a low voice.

"Does Madam want anything?" the old man had his hair dyed ash blond. His phoenix eyes stared back at Lily. "A specific type of food?"

"No. But... I would ask you to supervise everything in the house." Lily said. She is not good when it comes to house matters and she is very aware of this. She does not want to stress herself in something that she is not good at. Moreover, this is not a gigantic house a single man like him could easily handle it. "I believe Zhou Jingren already informed you about this?"

"Yes," The older man nodded. Zhou Jingren indeed told him that Lily might not want to manage the house as her priorities are different compared to some newly married women.

"Then good." Lily nodded. Hearing this, the older man bowed and left. "Do you have something for me?" Lily said, almost lazily as she eyed Yang Mi who just arrived. "Did you have breakfast, already?" she asked.

"Yes, President." Yang Mi nodded. "Miss Qiao is with Yu Jing last night. But... I have heard the news. Yu Jing is going to clear his name, eventually."

"Only his?" she asked.

"Hmmm. So... I believe your initial plan will happen soon. Qiao Qiao won’t have a choice but to talk to you."

"Good." She said as she threw another grape into her mouth. "Then let’s wait for her to come." Qiao Qiao is a very selfish person who would not hesitate to sell her soul to the devil just to achieve what she wanted. In Lily’s mind, it would not take too long for Qiao Qiao to realize that she is on the verge of being destroyed.

If her guess was right, then Qiao Qiao would soon come to seek for Lily’s help. Qiao Qiao would then tell her about the person who asked her to provoke Lily in an attempt to save herself.

Just as Lily expected, Qiao Qiao showed up in the mansion after a couple of hours. She was wearing big dark sunglasses that covered most of her face and a scarf on her lower face and neck.

"Thank you for agreeing to see me," Qiao Qiao said weakly. All these things made her feel really exhausted. She did not dare remove the sunglasses on her face as she looked at Lily. "I know you are probably expecting this." She watched as Lily sat opposite to her.

"Do you need anything from me?" Lily lifted an eyebrow.

"Yes, and No. I — I mean..." Qiao Qiao made a deliberate pause as she composed herself. "I need your help, yes. But I believe that you also need mine."

"Why would you say that?" Interest flashed in Lily’s eyes. She stared at the distressed woman who was fidgetting under her gaze. "Take off your glasses." She added.

In response, Qiao Qiao bit her lips. She hesitated for a few seconds before she complied. She is already about to lose everything. Does it really matter if Lily will ridicule her now? She met Lily’s eyes.

"I see." Lily nodded. She thought that the reason why she was wearing something to cover her eyes was that Yu Jing hurt her. Turns out she was wrong. Qiao Qiao had really dark bags under her swollen eyes. "You are here to beg?" she asked.

"I am here to convince you to stop doing whatever it is that you are doing. I am not the person you should target." Qiao Qiao said. Since that Chen Luan refused to help her, then why would she hide this fact to Lily? All she wanted now is to see that Chen Luan and Chen Shi go down with her.

In Qiao Qiao’s mind, this is something that they started. So why does she have to suffer alone?

"Hmmm? Then who should I target Miss Qiao?" Lily asked.

"I am not sure what kind of bad blood you have with her but... the woman who asked me to provoke you is called, Chen Shi." Hatred flashed in Qiao Qiao’s eyes. That woman is the reason why she is in this situation right now. That woman deserves to suffer!

At this point, Qiao Qiao only wanted to ruin that Chen Shi as well.

"I see." Lily nodded. "But why would she do that?"

"How should I know?" Qiao Qiao retorted. "She just asked me to provoke you and maybe... maybe find a way to create some rift in your marriage. That’s all."

"And this... this was the root of all this?" Lily asked. "What did she offer you in return?"

"A contract with Zhang Recordings. It was her husband’s company. If you are not familiar, it is one of the biggest recording companies in Mainland China. Any sane person who wanted to have a solid footing in this industry would want to have a contract with them." Qiao Qiao said.

"So... let me get this straight." Lily leaned towards her. "You... you did all this because they offered you a contract? And somehow... you think this is all their fault?"
