When Wu Xiaolian was exposed, her whole body was like a thunderbolt, and she froze on the spot.
She didn't seem to expect that she would be discovered by Shen Xiangyang after being so secretive. Faced with Shen Xiangyang's doubts, she was speechless.
Especially when she thought of all the love and care Shen Xiangyang had shown her during this period, she chose to betray the Shen family, which made her feel ashamed.
As she thought about it, her tears flowed down unconsciously.
Shen Xiangyang's face was livid, he stared at her and roared: "What's the use of crying now? Do you know that because of your leaks, the Shangguan Chamber of Commerce is now pressing down on my Shen family. If my brother-in-law hadn't made arrangements, I would have The Shen family will be completely destroyed this time!"
The more he spoke, the more excited and angrier he became. He raised his right hand and brought it down hard, ready to slap her.
But just when his palm was about to fall on Wu Xiaolian's face, he stopped.
He found that he couldn't do it!
He loved this woman deeply and even wanted to spend his life with her. Even when he was tested in the end, he still didn't want to believe that she was a traitor.
But when the facts are before his eyes, what else can he do except accept them?
Wu Xiaolian looked at Shen Xiangyang who stopped, and slowly closed her eyes: "Hit me!"
She wanted to forgive herself for her traitorous behavior.
But Shen Xiangyang suddenly put down his hand, stared at her with a cold face and asked: "Why, why on earth, why did you betray me!"
He doesn't understand why someone who clearly loves him deeply would betray him.
But Wu Xiaolian let out a long sigh, opened her eyes and took a deep look at him: "I didn't betray you. In fact, this matter was a set-up from the beginning. My purpose of deliberately approaching you was to get the Shen family's facial mask formula."
This sentence made Shen Xiangyang stunned. He never dreamed that things would turn out like this. It turned out that he was the one who was calculated from the beginning.
No wonder the relationship between him and Wu Xiaolian went so smoothly, no wonder their marriage was settled so quickly, and no wonder Wu Xiaolian showed great business talent as soon as she came into contact with Shen Family Clothing Store.
It turns out that all this is the layout of the Shangguan family!
And not only was he unaware of it, he actually led the wolf into the house!
Thinking of this, Shen Xiangyang's face suddenly turned pale, and he took several steps back as if he had been severely injured.
Wu Xiaolian looked at him like this, with a look of distress on her face, and she immediately stepped forward to help him.
But Shen Xiangyang suddenly threw her away: "Go away, since you are a traitor, why do you still pretend to care about me? I don't need your sympathy!"
"In your eyes, am I a fool, a pawn for you and the Shangguan family to use? Even your feelings for me are fake!"
At this moment, Shen Xiangyang seemed to be crazy, like a madman, like a maniac, and his voice was eight decibels higher than usual.
"No! That's not the case!"
Wu Xiaolian suddenly became excited, and she tried her best to explain: "Although I approached you at the beginning to complete the task assigned by Shangguan Yunge, after coming into contact with you, I...I fell in love with you!"
These words made Shen Xiangyang pause and gradually calm down.
But then, he stared at Wu Xiaolian coldly: "Why, at this time, do you still want to use a honey trap against me? Your identity as the traitor has been exposed, do you think there is still a possibility between us?"
"You like me? Haha, if you really like me, you won't choose to betray my Shen family."
These words made Wu Xiaolian calm down.
She knew that Shen Xiangyang was telling the truth. With their current situation, there was no way they could be together.
Even if Shen Xiangyang can accept what she did, what about the Shen family? What about Su Cheng?
As long as these people don't accept it, there is no way she can marry into the Shen family!
And because of betraying the Shen family, the Shen family couldn't let her go easily.
Thinking of this, Wu Xiaolian suddenly asked: "I have said everything that needs to be said. You can decide for yourself what to do. Do you want to send me to prison, or do you Shen Jiabai commit suicide on me?"
No family would tolerate such a thing as a traitor. Now that it had been discovered, Wu Xiaolian had no intention of getting out alive.
Shen Xiangyang fell silent upon hearing this.
It is undeniable that he loves this woman very much. If he is asked to kill this woman, he cannot do it.
Let go?
He can't even do it!
It was the Shen family that allowed him to have everything he has now, and he would not do such a thing at this time.
The two of them fell silent, and the atmosphere in the room became very subtle.
After a long time like this, the sky outside gradually became brighter, and Shen Xiangyang knew that he should make a decision.
He looked at Wu Xiaolian and said coldly: "I can't do it, but I believe my brother-in-law can. Let my brother-in-law handle this matter. You and I can go see him."
After speaking, he turned around and led the way. Wu Xiaolian didn't say anything, but just followed obediently.
Soon, the two came to Su Cheng's yard. Su Cheng just got up and was washing in the yard.
Seeing Shen Xiangyang and Wu Xiaolian coming, Su Cheng asked before Shen Xiangyang could speak: "Did she admit it? You can't do it?"
Shen Xiangyang was stunned: "Brother-in-law knows it's her?"
Su Cheng glanced at Wu Xiaolian, chuckled and said to Shen Xiangyang: "Your marriage is related to the future of the Shen family. I secretly asked Niu Chong to investigate. Although her background is nothing special, she is suspected of deliberately getting close to you. In order to Just in case, I asked Yang Lingxuan to prepare some materials in advance."
"When you said you suspected her yesterday, I was already sure that it was her. After all, it is impossible for us to have a spy within the Shen family. The only outsider is her. It is not difficult to find the traitor."
His words silenced Shen Xiangyang.
Wu Xiaolian on the side also opened her mouth wide, looking incredible.
If Su Cheng had suspected her for a long time, wouldn't it mean that Su Cheng had expected that the Shangguan family would take action during the imperial examination?
And Su Cheng didn't tell anyone about all this beforehand, and instead let the Shangguan family take action. Doesn't that mean that Su Cheng was confident in handling this matter?
While deep in thought, Shen Xiangyang suddenly knelt down to Su Cheng: "Brother-in-law, can...can you spare her life?"
Wu Xiaolian's expression changed. She didn't expect that Shen Xiangyang would kneel down for herself!
Su Changcheng sighed and stretched out his hand to help Shen Xiangyang: "The reason why she can make you do this must be because you love her deeply. And the fact that she hasn't said a word in rebuttal until now means that she also likes you!"
"Let's do this. She can continue to stay in the Shen family and marry you, but she is not allowed to interfere in any affairs of the Shen family in the future. As for the Shen family, I will say hello to my father and will not embarrass her again."
Shen Xiangyang and Wu Xiaolian were overjoyed. They did not expect that Su Cheng would let this matter go.
Wu Xiaolian also knelt down immediately: "Thank you so much, Lord Marquis!"
Su Cheng shook his head: "There is no need to thank me. What you should thank is Shen Xiangyang. If I had not seen his attitude of kneeling down for you, I would not have let you go."
"Okay, I am going to invigilate the exam. You two will be at the Shen family during this period and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
