Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life

Chapter 1077 - 1066: The Unkind Stepmother

"Bingwen, you know me. If I had any way out, I wouldn’t have left Xiao Xu." Song Qing said, her eyes turning red, her voice choked.

"I didn’t mean to blame you." Fang Bingwen said helplessly, seemingly wanting to reach out to comfort her, but concerned about Ye Qiu’s presence, he ultimately didn’t move.

Song Qing broke into a smile: "I knew you understood me best. I never thought of leaving Xiao Xu, so I went to see him as soon as I returned."

"And then told him how I was wronged as the stepmother?" Ye Qiu said softly.

"Before you, the streamer couldn’t help but speak out first."

"I said the streamer was no match for this enchantress. Look at the way she is still looking at the streamer’s husband? Already divorced and still doesn’t know how to avoid suspicion?"

"What makes me angrier is that deadbeat man, who still hasn’t spoken a single word for the streamer, even after all the gossip at school that Professor Fang still harbors feelings for his ex-wife. Seems the news is true."

"Something’s weird — since the streamer’s husband can’t forget his ex-wife, and now the ex-wife seems interested in getting back together, why did they divorce in the first place? And why did he agree to the streamer’s proposal then?"

"That’s why I said from the start this was a conspiracy!"

The three fans at the table next to Ye Qiu were grinding their teeth in anger, yet had no means to intervene, only upset, even forgetting about their melting ice cream.

"Xiao Xu wronged you?" Song Qing looked shocked, covering her mouth with her long, fair fingers, her eyes wide open, "How could he?"

As she spoke, her tears began to flow, and she seemed utterly distressed: "It’s all my fault, not having kept in touch to educate him these past two years, no matter how difficult it was, I shouldn’t have left him. I’m sorry, no matter what he did, I sincerely apologize to you."

She stood up and bowed in apology, a beauty doing so naturally drew attention, and everyone in the restaurant looked curiously, seeing her so remorseful, most showed a sympathetic expression, and when they looked at Ye Qiu, their eyes were filled with disapproval.

"What a vile woman!"

"Underestimated her level."

"The streamer is completely outmatched, doesn’t know how to respond anymore."

"Actually, I’ve inquired, heard you hired excellent teachers for Xiao Xu, which was reassuring, how could he lie?" Song Qing whimpered, seemingly very upset and distressed.

"What does she mean by this? Is she blaming the streamer for not educating her son well?"

"Is this a complaint about the quality of the teacher streamer’s hired?"

"Oh my, my inner primeval force is bursting! Those teachers don’t come easy even with money, and she is dissatisfied?"

"The way she’s sidestepping responsibility is extremely clever!"

"We don’t blame you, don’t cry." Fang Bingwen gently comforted, handing over a handkerchief.

Ye Qiu looked at him incredulously, what do you mean ’no blame’? Just one sentence is enough? Yet, Fang Bingwen didn’t look at her.

Song Qing’s eyes were still teary, seemingly nostalgic: "Turns out you still have the habit of carrying a handkerchief, it’s all because I used to cry so much back then. Hey, is that a hyacinth embroidered on it? I remember we didn’t have anywhere to plant flowers then, so we bought two glass bottles to grow hyacinths in. You still remember."

Saying this, she felt it inappropriate and hurriedly apologized to Ye Qiu with a smile: "Miss Ye, you won’t mind, right? After all, habits are hard to change, and Bingwen and I divorced long ago, haven’t kept in touch, rest assured. But since this handkerchief is yours now, I can’t use it, you should keep it."

Ye Qiu knew she was intentional because Fang Bingwen was a person of sentiment, and he had never forgotten Song Qing; this handkerchief, Fang Bingwen had never used for Ye Qiu. She knew Bingwen’s nature and deliberately flaunted it before Ye Qiu.

"It’s fine, I’ve never used this material for handkerchiefs, I find it unhygienic even if washed daily. Now both dry and wet tissues are individually packaged, very clean and hygienic. Miss Song’s makeup is a bit smeared, better wipe it quickly." Ye Qiu placed two packs of tissues on the table, smiling, hinting she understood.

But beside, Fang Bingwen watched as Ye Qiu carelessly wiped the coffee stain with the handkerchief, looking both tolerated and indifferent.

"I’ve said it countless times, I’m an ordinary person, don’t flaunt your wealth before me." He said coldly.

"What did I do? You keep scolding me, just two packs of tissues, how much could that cost?" Ye Qiu said pleadingly, looking both humiliated and incredulous.

"Oh my, what a jerk, his tone!"

"So gentle and good to the ex-wife, but not even a kind word for the streamer?"

"Who’s actually in the right today?"

"Using a pack of tissues is wrong too?"

"Seeing that woman’s smug expression angers me!"

Ye Qiu’s three fans vented their dissatisfaction, simultaneously sharing the recording with the group, each criticizing Fang Bingwen.

"Indeed, beast in human’s guise!"

"Can’t believe classmates saw Professor Fang as noble and elegant, and he’s actually like this! Girls, share the video, I want to expose him in the classmate group."

"Correct, let everyone see his true colors."

"Really worried for the streamer, what kind of judgment is this?"

Meanwhile, Song Qing’s smile turned complacent before quickly reverting to a good-natured expression, teasing Fang Bingwen: "Bingwen, Miss Ye is your wife after all, why speak to her like that? She’d be hurt."

She finished with a proprietary demeanor and Fang Bingwen comforted Ye Qiu again: "Miss Ye, Bingwen always has this temper, don’t get angry with him, he’s just being thrifty, not implying anything else, don’t take it to heart."

"Bingwen, quickly apologize to Miss Ye." She gestured at Fang Bingwen with raised eyebrows.

"No need." Ye Qiu regrouped, "Bingwen is always like this, I’ve been spoiled, I know he’s looking out for me. Miss Song, we’ve talked so long and still haven’t touched on the main topic, Bingwen, you speak."

Suddenly called upon, Fang Bingwen frowned: "Say what?"

Ye Qiu opened her mouth, eyes wide open, looking surprised: "Talk about Xiao Xu’s lying, I think Miss Song and Xiao Xu should give me an explanation."

Fang Bingwen’s brow furrowed deeper: "Didn’t we make it clear just now? Xiaoqing doesn’t know either, Xiao Xu probably lied, I’ll educate him when we get home."

Ye Qiu smiled bitterly: "So just like that it’s over? My grievances are dismissed?"
