Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 595: Chapter 595: You Really Are Calculating

Zhang Wenjuan didn’t expect this man to have no understanding of romance at all; he was tall and handsome, a sight for sore eyes, yet his words were utterly annoying.

Huo Jingrui didn’t care what she thought, he returned to the kitchen with a stern face and started tidying up.

Zhang Wenjuan couldn’t believe this man could do these things too, and inwardly marveled at Yunyi’s good fortune.

Yunyi found him an eyesore: ”Have you seen enough?”

Zhang Wenjuan remembered her purpose for coming and quickly reined in her wandering thoughts: ”Rest assured, I’m not here to cause trouble, I’m here to ask for your help.”

Yunyi let out a cold laugh: ”I’ve never seen someone as thick-skinned as you. What do I have to be worried about? What grounds do you have to trouble me? To be blunt, you living a life of luxury in the Ye Family is taking advantage of my misfortune.

Besides, there’s no friendship between us. Asking me for help, unless you’re out of your mind, how could you have the nerve to even say that?”

Zhang Wenjuan was so infuriated by Yunyi’s outburst that she almost cursed, but now she had no other options: ”I know you resent me, but when we were both just babies, we couldn’t control what happened.

And you say I took advantage of you; I disagree with that. The real person who took your identity was Ye Wenyue, not me. I haven’t had any good days in the third house.

As a child, when Ye Wenyue, who is the same age as me, was playing, I was helping my mom, oh no, my aunt, with chores.

When Ye Wenyue was being pampered by the whole family, I was being scolded and beaten while taking care of my younger siblings. So, my life isn’t much better than yours. No, it’s probably not as comfortable as yours with your adoptive parents.

The one who truly benefited is Ye Wenyue. The suffering I was supposed to endure was borne by her, so the debt of you being switched shouldn’t be blamed on me.”

Having said so much in one breath, Zhang Wenjuan’s expression twisted with real anger. If she had truly swapped identities directly with Yunyi and was showered with love like Ye Wenyue, she might feel guilty facing Yunyi.

Her life in the Ye Family was indeed better than those who couldn’t eat or wear properly, but when compared to Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenyue, it was worlds apart, so she refused to accept the notion that she took advantage of Yunyi.

Yunyi coldly scrutinized her up and down: ”What, you expect me to deal with Ye Wenyue?

You really are calculating.”

Zhang Wenjuan didn’t expect her thoughts to be exposed so quickly: ”I’m just telling the truth.”

Anyway, she was thick-skinned and would deny it no matter what.

She didn’t believe Yunyi wouldn’t be aggravated at all by what she said.

Hmph, really good at pretending.

Yunyi wasn’t going to be provoked: ”Enough, I don’t want to hear you ramble on here. As I said, you’re not welcome here, so leave quickly.”

Zhang Wenjuan didn’t leave but instead stepped forward, trying to grab Yunyi’s hand: ”You can’t hold a grudge against me because of the past generation’s issues. The Ye Family has already changed my surname; I’m no longer one of them. To put it plainly, I’m also a victim.

I beg you, for the sake of the bond between our identities, please help me.”

Yunyi sneered: ”You’re a pretty good actor, just as cold-hearted as your real mother. You dare call yourself a victim and say anything. Then shouldn’t you confront your real mother about why she kept silent knowing you were switched back then?

It’s truly ridiculous.”

Zhang Wenjuan saw that Yunyi was neither vulnerable to persuasion nor force, and found it hard to keep up the act: ”I was just like you back then, only a baby. Why should their mistakes be blamed on me?”
