Chapter 278: Framing Mrs. Zheng

Su Ye revealed a slight smile, his tone somewhat light, "I just met Mrs. Zheng two days ago, and she knew that I had been with Mrs. Wu before. The curiosity among officer's wives is natural, and a little comparison is normal."

I had thought through many things in my mind and hesitated for a moment, deliberately softening my attitude as I began, "I don't have much to pursue about this matter, but Mrs. Zheng has had too much to drink today. It's not appropriate for you to continue staying here. If someone else were to discover this at the banquet, it would be an embarrassment for both you and Mrs. Zheng."

I wanted to drive him away; once Mrs. Zheng left, everything would become clear, but Su Ye's expression suddenly turned ugly, "That wouldn't be good, would it? Mrs. Zheng specifically arranged for me to accompany her here, taking the opportunity for a secret rendezvous."

I had been somewhat skeptical about what Su Ye said, but now I could be certain he was lying to me.
