The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Chapter 298 Because We Are Both Women

Jiang Suining did not say anything, but silently gestured to Yang Manman to listen.

The conversation between the few people continued.

The alley was very small, and there weren't many straw mats and broken baskets piled on it. One glance at the alley revealed that no one was hiding there. They just thought that the person had left, and never expected that Yang Manman was hiding in the corner.

"What should we do now? Forget about not getting the money. But will anything really happen to Yang Manman?"

"It would be fine if something went wrong, it would be best if there is no evidence, but I am afraid she will wake up and run away, and remember that we dragged her into this alley." Wu Cheng said with a grim expression.

When these words were spoken, everyone's heart trembled.

Immediately afterwards, one of the yamen runners who had left the ambush for Yang Manman spoke immediately.

"Impossible. She was a drunken mess, and she didn't even see our faces when we dragged her in."

"Could he be pretending to be drunk?" asked another bailiff.

Wu Cheng thought about it and shook his head. "No, why would you pretend to be drunk for no reason? Besides, even if you were really pretending to be drunk, she should have woken up when you pulled her clothes. It would be fine as long as you can make sure she doesn't see your faces."

"We two can definitely guarantee this. This isn't the first time we've done something like this. How could she have seen my face?"

Hearing this, Wu Cheng's expression eased a little.

"No matter what, at least we won't be implicated. The people from the Duke's Mansion will probably be here soon. Let's go quickly and pretend to help find someone somewhere else, and then go back to the Dali Temple. It doesn't matter if we can't get the money, but we can't let this happen to us!"

Wu Cheng's words were instantly agreed by the others. Although they were disappointed and unwilling, they quickly left the alley.

At the corner at the end of the alley, Yang Manman heard their footsteps leaving and began to struggle frantically.

Damn these bastards, she must kill them!

Guessing that the person had gone far away, Jiang Suining signaled Xier to remove the cloth strip on Yang Manman's mouth and the cloth stuffed inside.

"Miss Yang should believe it now."

"Let me go, I'm going to kill them. Those bastards actually dared to plot against me. I'm going to make them die miserably!"

"If you rush over now, they will know that everything has been exposed, and they may kill you out of desperation."

Jiang Suining's words made Yang Manman tremble, and cold sweat broke out on her back.

"He, they dare!"

Although she was still gritting her teeth to refute, Yang Manman finally calmed down a little. She looked up at Jiang Suining, and the next moment, fear suddenly welled up in her eyes.

"Jiang Suining, you heard everything, what do you want to do!"

Just now, those people tore off her clothes and actually revealed her bellyband. As long as Jiang Suining exposes this matter, her innocence and her future marriage will be completely ruined!

Almost in an instant, Yang Manman seemed to have all her strength drained away. Her hands and feet became weak and even her teeth began to tremble.

Jiang Suining looked at her and spoke softly, "Ms. Yang usually looks down on girls and always flaunts herself as a man in her writings. I didn't expect you to still worry about this."

"Stop talking nonsense here. If it were you, wouldn't you be worried?" Yang Manman's face was pale and cold sweat was oozing from her forehead.

At this moment, all her usual contempt for women and disparagement of rules were crushed by the word "innocent".

Although she wanted to be extraordinary in everything, she did not dare to really challenge her reputation.

She was terribly frightened.

The pleading eyes fell on Jiang Suining, and just before the pleading words were about to be spoken, Jiang Suining spoke first.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this."

"Are you serious?" Yang Manman asked anxiously.

"Really? When you were hiding behind the straw mat just now, apart from those Dali Temple runners, only Xier and I saw you. The people I brought with me were very far away and would not have seen anything. They also did not know what the runners were planning."

Jiang Suining paused for a moment, looked at Yang Manman and continued speaking.

"Xier and I won't tell anyone. As for those people, you should be able to handle them yourself."

Yang Manman looked at Jiang Suining in surprise and confusion. After hesitating for a long time, she asked.

"why?"

Such a good handle fell into Jiang Suining's hands. As long as she spread the news, she would be completely ruined. Isn't this what Jiang Suining wanted to see?

"Are you asking me why I kept your secret, or why I saved you?"

Yang Manman pursed her lips, "Both problems."

In her opinion, Jiang Suining had no reason to keep the secret for her, nor should he save her.

After learning that he was being plotted against, shouldn't Jiang Suining have been hiding in the dark, watching the fun, and waiting with a smile on his face for his own downfall?

Taking in all of Yang Manman's thoughts and doubts, Jiang Suining spoke.

"The reason is simple, because you and I are both women."

"Just because of this?" Yang Manman was puzzled.

"Yes, that's why. As a woman, even though I hate you, I can't bear to watch you get schemed against in such a despicable way."

Jiang Suining walked forward and untied the ropes on Yang Manman's hands and feet.

"I tied you up just now because I knew clearly that if I didn't let you hear the conversation between those people with your own ears, you would never believe me. Now you can leave."

Yang Manman looked at Jiang Suining with mixed feelings, "Are you really going to let me go so easily?"

Jiang Suining smiled and asked, "What else? I am not them. I don't need any hush money from the Duke's Mansion."

Yang Manman gritted her teeth and stood up, holding on to the wall.

"Jiang Suining, even if you saved me, I wouldn't be grateful to you. I, I..."

"No need." Jiang Suining shook his head.

Yang Manman took a few tentative steps forward, and seeing that Jiang Suining didn't make any move, he turned around and looked at her again.

"Jiang Suining, you really don't have any requests?"

"If I were to ask for something, I would have one thing." Jiang Suining looked at Yang Manman seriously, "As the daughter of the Duke's Mansion, I hope you won't let those despicable people go. Not only for yourself, but also for the women they harmed before."

"You don't have to tell me this. They dare to plot against me like this. I will never let them go!" Yang Manman gritted her teeth, her eyes full of hatred.

After saying this, he looked at Jiang Suining deeply again before turning and leaving.

After Yang Manman walked away, Xier said, "Miss, you let Yang Manman hear everything not only to let her find out the truth, but also to avenge the other women who were murdered, right?"

"Yes." Jiang Suining nodded.

"Then why don't you report it to the police?"

Jiang Suining looked at the empty and quiet alley in front of him, his eyes clear and frosty.

"Even if we report it to the police, they will definitely not admit it, and I'm afraid we won't be able to find any evidence. Also, Yang Manman hasn't really gotten into trouble after all. If it gets out in the open, they will probably be punished with a stick, or at most exiled. But if the Duke's Mansion does it privately... that would be different."

When it comes to Yang Manman's reputation and the face of the Duke's Mansion, Duke Yang will never let them have another chance to speak alive.

Xier looked at her young lady seriously and spoke after thinking for a moment.

"Miss, I think there is another reason why you did this."
