"You can't say anything in front of me."

Xie Lan glanced at Zhang Caijin coldly, with a hint of hostility in his eyes.

He came to his house and harassed Jiang Wan in front of him. Does he really think he is someone important?

Xie Lan didn't bother with Zhang Caijin before because he was too lazy to bother with him.

It is different now.

Now Jiang Wan is his wife. Even if they are in a contractual marriage, he cannot allow Zhang Caijin to be so arrogant and make an appointment with Jiang Wan under his nose.

Zhang Caijin took two steps back. Xie Lan's aura was too strong. In front of him, he always felt inferior to him. That was why Zhang Caijin hated Xie Lan before.

At that time, Jiang Wan disliked Xie Lan and would come to his house every now and then to scold Xie Lan for being a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.

When comparing Xie Lan and Zhang Caijin, Zhang Caijin would secretly rejoice every time when he said that Xie Lan was not even as good as Zhang Caijin.

But things are different now. Jiang Wan not only married Xie Lan, but also lived a good life that made him jealous, with fine clothes and delicious food. How could Zhang Caijin swallow this?

Jiang Wan, who once chased after him, now became someone else's wife. Isn't this a slap in his face?

Zhang Caijin became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He didn't know where he got the courage from, but he raised his voice and said to Xie Lan, "Xie Lan, don't think I don't know that Jiang Wan is willing to marry you, not because she likes you at all!"

Xie Lan looked at him without changing his expression, "You know?"

That look was like that of a ferocious beast, and the courage that Zhang Caijin had just gathered suddenly dissipated.

He is truly an evil star, with such a strong hostility that it is difficult for him to confront him head-on.

Zhang Caijin rolled his eyes, his arrogance weakened, and he pleaded with Jiang Wan behind Xie Lan: "Jiang Wan, for the sake of our past friendship, can't you talk to me alone for a few words?"

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows. She probably knew why Zhang Caijin came to her house.

But who gave him the courage?

She took a step forward, crossed her arms over her chest, and said with a cold face, "Just talk about it here, Zhang Caijin, I've had enough of playing with you, my patience is running out, if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it."

Zhang Caijin's expression froze, he glanced at Xie Lan, gritted his teeth, and said directly without caring about the embarrassment: "Jiang Wan, is it you who didn't let Master Wang build a kang for my family? Why do you want to involve my relatives in the grudge between you and me? They are from the same village as you, why do you have to target them? My grandfather is old, and my nephew and sister are still young and weak, and they all need a kang to keep warm. Everyone in the village can ask Master Wang to build a kang, but my family can't. If Master Wang hadn't listened to your instructions, why wouldn't he help our family build a kang?"

Jiang Wan sneered. As she said, one does not come to the temple for no reason.

Zhang Caijin came here for the kang.

She curled her lips and said, "Mr. Zhang, how do I know that Master Wang is unwilling to build a kang for your Zhang family? Maybe he himself is unwilling. What's the point of you coming to me to reason? I didn't build the kang. Go find Master Wang to reason with him."

Zhang Caijin said excitedly, "Everyone in the village knows that you taught Master Wang the blueprint for the kang and gave it to him for free, asking him to build kangs for the villagers for half the wages. Master Wang will definitely listen to you, and he won't build for anyone if you tell him not to."

What this means is that Master Wang did not build a kang for the Zhang family because it was Jiang Wan's idea.

Jiang Wan sneered, "You have found out so much, but why didn't you find out why Master Wang was unwilling to build a kang for your family?"

Zhang Caijin choked.

He didn't ask about it at all. It was Sun and Zhang Mei who told him with exaggerations.

He himself also thought that Jiang Wan was angry at him for betraying her feelings, so she deliberately targeted their Zhang family.

Isn't this the truth?

Jiang Wan continued, "If you have the time, go find out the truth about why Master Wang refused to build a kang for your Zhang family. Why do you come to me?"

Zhang Caijin opened his mouth but didn't utter a word for a long time.

The reason he came to see Jiang Wan this time was, firstly, to apologize to her sincerely and reconcile with her, and secondly, to question her about the construction of the kang.

Unexpectedly, neither of these two things was accomplished.

He looked at the increasingly radiant Jiang Wan and the imposing Xie Lan standing together. They somehow looked like a perfect match, and the jealousy in his heart was hard to conceal.

He thought again of the last time in the bookstore, when Jiang Wan defended Xie Lan and Xie Lan generously helped him, and the jealousy in his eyes almost overflowed.

Jiang Wan changed her mind and married Xie Lan, wasn't it because of his money?

And he said it in such a high-sounding way.

Jiang Wan used so many excuses to fool him, but in fact she was just greedy for Xie Lan's money!

Seeing that Jiang Wan refused to listen to his persuasion several times, Zhang Caijin looked as if he would never look at him again.

He did not care about his initial plan to coax Jiang Wan, but decided to break up with Jiang Wan again.

"Jiang Wan, you said I was unfaithful and heartless, but what about you? You fall in love with everyone you meet, and you say how bad Xie Lan is, but then you secretly marry him and say that I failed you in the past. How dare you say that?"

Zhang Caijin's expression was distorted, and he said angrily: "I think you are a vulgar woman who despises the poor and loves the rich, and loves vanity! Because my Zhang family is poor and Xie Lan is rich, you chose him, and you said he is better than me. It's just an excuse for you to lie to me, right? Ha, Jiang Wan, I just thought you were a little willful before, which is not a big problem and can be changed. But now you are becoming more and more unfamiliar, and I don't even recognize you! Fortunately, I didn't marry you home before, otherwise you might do something bad behind my back!"

His eyes swept over Xie Lan, and the meaning of his words was self-evident.

Zhang Caijin is a typical example of a petty person who, when he can't get what he wants, will slander and belittle others.

He repeatedly bowed his head in front of Jiang Wan and tried to make peace with her in a nice way, but Jiang Wan always treated him coldly.

After all, he was a scholar with a strong sense of self-esteem. If he hadn't hoped that Jiang Wan would come back, he wouldn't have bowed his head again and again.

Now he was completely furious, not only because of Jiang Wan's cold treatment, but also because of his humiliation in front of Xie Lan.

As soon as Zhang Caijin finished speaking, a cold look flashed across Xie Lan's face. Just as he was about to take action, Jiang Wan reached out and held his arm, saying softly, "I'll take care of it."

After saying that, Jiang Wan took two steps forward and slapped Zhang Caijin in the face, looking at him with anger and fear.

"what!"

"Jiang Wan, you dare to hit me?!"

The slap was loud and Zhang Caijin covered his face in disbelief.

Jiang Wan shook his wrist with a look of disgust.

"Zhang Caijin, I have tolerated you for a long time, but you are always like a cockroach that can't be beaten, jumping around in front of me all the time, which is really annoying. Also, why are you always so confident that I will forgive you?"

She smiled sarcastically and continued, "Now that you have finally stopped pretending, you are beginning to show your true colors? You say that I despise the poor and love the rich, and that I am vain? Well, even if I despise the poor and love the rich, what can you do? You can only be jealous."

Zhang Caijin's face turned blue and red from anger, it was a very interesting sight.

Jiang Wan was smiling again, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"Zhang Caijin, this slap is just the beginning. If you feel itchy, just come and jump in front of me. I will slap you as much as you want."
