Chapter 31: Shot Himself in the Foot

Translator: 549690339

Shen Baolan had never expected that not only did her attempt to humiliate Pei Wenping not go as planned, but it also backfired on her badly.

Not only was she lectured by the manager for a good half hour, but she was also required to write a 500-word self-criticism.

Shen Baolan didn't dare tell her in-laws about the incident, but her silence didn't mean others kept quiet, and plenty of people were keen to inform Ma Sufen about it.

By the time Shen Baolan got home from work, not only was she fiercely scolded by Ma Sufen, but she was also reprimanded by her father-in-law Zhou Quanxiong, and her husband Zhou Shuhuan didn't say a word or come to her defense.

With tears rolling down her face, Shen Baolan felt wronged but had no choice other than to swallow her tears and grievances.

This was the path she chose, who else was there to blame?

However, seeing how protective Pei Wenping was of Shen Mingzhu and being a woman herself, how could she not feel a pinch of jealousy and envy?
