Captured Hearts: The Substitute Bride’s Gambit

Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Such People Should Go to Jail Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Such People Should Go to Jail Qi Yunfan sneered, “Don’t try to butter me up. Kind or not, I wouldn’t let you stay overnight in my house anyway. Who knows? By morning, you might have cleaned the place out!”

Wen Nianyou looked shocked. “Brother Yunfan, what do you mean? Why would I empty your house? Have I ever stolen anything from your house before?”

“You haven’t stolen from my house, but you have stolen from someone else.”

“I haven’t!”noveldrama

Qi Yunfan glanced at Lin Yueqin, who was following behind her, and mocked, “Stop pretending; I know everything. You are not really the daughter of the Wen Family, not a real lady. You are the daughter of a maid and a murderer! You stole Chuyi’s life and are enjoying everything that should have belonged to her in the Wen Family!”

Wen Nianyou’s face changed dramatically. “How did you know? Who told you? Was it Lin Chuyi? Her words are not trustworthy; she is a liar!”

Qi Yunfan replied coolly, “She never said anything. The person who told me this was Lady Wen. Moreover, she didn’t just tell me; she sent the same message to everyone who knows you and Chuyi, explaining that Chuyi is her daughter. And she made it clear to everyone that Chuyi will now take her last name, Ye, no longer Lin, and you are no longer her daughter.”

He paused, then stared at Lin Yueqin and continued, “Lady Wen also said that her maid, Lin Yueqin, swapped her daughter, and she cautioned everyone to beware of her.”

“How shameless this person is, harboring such malicious intent, to steal her employer’s daughter and have her own raised by them. Any household with such a maid is truly cursed.”

“This person should be in prison; yet she roams free. Lady Wen is just too kind and too merciful.”

Lin Yueqin turned pale; she had not expected Ye Jinyu to send a message to everyone who knew Ye Chuyi and Wen Nianyou, revealing their true identities!

Wen Nianyou was also surprised to learn that it was Ye Jinyu who had told Qi Yunfan, filled with rage inside. So, not being her real mother really showed. That fool Ye Jinyu, after she had spent 26 years being her daughter, calling her ‘mom’ for so many years, yet was Chuyi actually more valuable than her?

She had been so filial to her, only to have Ye Jinyu stab her in the back and reveal her true identity!

How was she supposed to face her friends now? Who would want to associate with her after this? This was practically driving her to her grave!

Wen Nianyou trembled with anger. No wonder Qi Yunfan’s attitude towards her had changed so suddenly; he had already discovered her true identity.

She forced a few tears to fall. “Brother Yunfan, I too am a victim; I didn’t know anything about this. As for Lin Yueqin…”

She looked toward Lin Yueqin, signaling her to start crying too.

Lin Yueqin immediately burst into loud crying, “Young Master Qi, I didn’t steal Madam’s daughter. How could I do such a thing? It was all my former husband’s doing. He did it behind my back, secretly swapping my daughter. I only just found out that Youyou is my daughter. I had always thought Xiaoyi was my biological child, so I gave all my love to Xiaoyi!”

Qi Yunfan looked at her, then back at Wen Nianyou, and suddenly laughed sarcastically, “I always said, how could someone as gentle and kind as Lady Wen give birth to a daughter so full of lies as you? It turns out you take after your mother, Lin Yueqin. And looking closely, the two of you do resemble each other a bit.”

Lin Yueqin hurriedly said, “Young Master Qi, I’m not lying, and neither is Youyou. How could she deceive anyone? She was raised by Lady Wen and is even kinder than Lady Wen!”

“Of course she’s not kind, and of course, you are lying. Did I not know how you treated Chuyi? I always felt your behavior was not at all like a mother’s should be, always hitting or scolding her, never treating her like a person. Now I know the reason; you knew long ago she was not your biological child, so you mistreated her like that.”

Qi Yunfan then turned to Wen Nianyou, “And you, you’ve known all along that Chuyi was the true daughter of the Wen family, right? That’s why you undermined her in every way, even trying to steal her boyfriend. I was blind to leave Chuyi, the real heiress, for you, an imposter! This is the biggest mistake I have made in my life!”
