Shen Zhixian’s originally gentle voice suddenly became cold and severe.

”He’s not single. Although he’s unmarried, he is still someone who is claimed. Miss Yang should also know that some things, even if you haven’t done them, can easily lead to misunderstandings from others.”

”Just as Wanwan mentioned earlier, since Miss Yang doesn’t want to be criticized as a Third Party, then stay away from them. Don’t give others the chance to spread rumors, and then no one will misunderstand.”

”If you insist on forcing your way in, to put it bluntly...”

”If people scold you, you brought it upon yourself. Isn’t it deserved?”

After Shen Zhixian finished speaking, Yang Yiyi’s face immediately turned pale.

The tone was light but each word was sharp, and after finishing, she even smiled at her and took a sip of tea.

Shen Zhixian’s implication was quite direct, reminding her, to put it harshly, it was telling her:

Don’t willingly degrade yourself.

Tang Wan sat next to her, sipping tea and eating the broad beans offered by the teahouse.

Her sister-in-law is not someone easy to mess with. Yang Yiyi probably hasn’t had contact with her before and doesn’t know her fierceness.

Shen Zhixian watched her chew the broad beans, crunching crisply, and turned her head to ask: ”Are they tasty?”

”Not bad.” Tang Wan pushed the broad beans over, ”Sister-in-law, try them.”

”These broad beans look very suitable to accompany wine.”

The two looked relaxed, like they were having afternoon tea, as if they completely ignored the person opposite them, causing Yang Yiyi’s face to turn slightly blue in an instant.

”Miss Yang, did you hear clearly what I said?” Shen Zhixian saw her silent for a long time, ”You don’t need to clarify anything, just stay away from them.”

Yang Yiyi bit her lip tightly:

”I and Fourth Master are also considered friends, do friends need to avoid suspicion when talking?”

”You seem to have misunderstood my meaning. I didn’t ask you to avoid suspicion...” Shen Zhixian rubbed the cup, suddenly looked up at her, squinting with a smile:

”I’m asking you to leave their lives! The farther the better.”

”Madam Jiang, isn’t this too overbearing?” Yang Yiyi didn’t expect Shen Zhixian to speak this way.

”We are all women, just because I haven’t called it out doesn’t mean I don’t understand. Don’t put on a show in front of me. Just because I haven’t been blunt doesn’t mean I’m not giving you face.”

Shen Zhixian laughed lightly, ”Now you say I’m overbearing, so you don’t want to stay away from them.”

”Miss Yang, on one hand you say Chengsi is your friend, yet your friend because of you, even his future happiness is about to be ruined. Asking you to sacrifice a bit to fulfill them, you are unwilling, is this what you call friendship?”

”That’s not what I meant.” Yang Yiyi didn’t easily destroy their relationship, how could she retreat.

”Then what do you mean? You want to maintain contact with Chengsi, but don’t want anyone to speak ill of you? These words are somewhat shameless.”

Yang Yiyi’s face turned pale again.

This Madam Jiang is formidable.

”You really misunderstood. I just...”

Yang Yiyi couldn’t possibly agree to Shen Zhixian’s request to completely leave their lives.

”Don’t talk about misunderstandings for now. Let me ask you, with your current attitude, when you meet Miss Si, how will you clear up your relationship with her?”

Shen Zhixian pressed step by step: ”Let me guess...”

”You might tell her, although the photos are real, nothing happened between you, and hope that as his girlfriend, she can be generous.”

”Tell her that you and her boyfriend will continue to meet, and hope she won’t be petty, and not get angry with Chengsi over such matters?”

”If she disagrees, then she’s petty and not generous; if she agrees, she will be driven crazy.”

...

Yang Yiyi didn’t expect her little scheme to be exposed thoroughly by Shen Zhixian.

She indeed wanted to corner Si Qingxiao into such a dilemma.

With her real intention exposed, she definitely wouldn’t admit it, ”Madam Jiang, I’m simply here to clarify misunderstandings, your words are somewhat sharp.”

Shen Zhixian smiled faintly, ”Are you saying I’m being petty?”

”I hope you can respect me.”

”But have you respected others?” Shen Zhixian suddenly raised her hand, putting the cup down, causing it to clink loudly against the ceramic coaster, catching the attention of the teahouse staff.
