Chapter 208 Tooth for Tooth
Jiang Yihuan watched Su Yaoguang's departing figure, her eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.

What does she have to be proud of?
It's easy to ruin a woman, and it's even easier now that she's all alone here.

"Su Yaoguang, laugh, laugh, but you won't be laughing for long." Jiang Yihuan's eyes were full of malice.

At night, Su Yaoguang was alone in her room, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

When Zhou Wangshu was here, she felt the room was very small, but now that she was all alone, it suddenly felt very empty, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

She was about to get up to get a drink of water when she suddenly heard a noise outside. She slowly walked to the window and, when she saw a furtive figure climbing over the wall, picked up a wooden stick from the side.

The man tiptoed into her room.

The moment he pushed the door open, she swung her stick and smashed it into his neck with a thud.

Before the man could even scream, a sharp pain shot through his neck, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Ugh..." Huang Daniu opened his eyes and found himself tied up with a rag stuffed in his mouth.

He looked in horror at Su Yaoguang, who was sitting opposite him, holding a thick wooden stick.

Su Yaoguang looked at him with a smile: "I can take the rag out of your mouth, but you have to promise not to shout, or else you'll suffer the same fate as this..."

As she spoke, she immediately performed a demonstration of breaking a rolling pin with her bare hands.

Huang Daniu nodded repeatedly.

"You sneaked in here, were you trying to steal money?" After removing the rag from Huang Daniu's mouth, Su Yaoguang got to the point.

Huang Daniu hesitated for a moment, then nodded repeatedly.

"You're lying!" Su Yaoguang sensed something was wrong the moment he hesitated. "If you confess honestly, I'll spare you. But since you're not being honest, I'll treat you well until you tell the truth."

As Su Yaoguang spoke, she picked up the vase placed beside her, tested its feel, and then swung it at Huang Daniu's head.

“I said…” Huang Daniu screamed.

Su Yaoguang stopped what she was doing and looked at him calmly: "Speak! This is your only chance. If you don't cherish it, don't blame me for dealing with you."

“A woman said you were rich, and if I could smear your reputation, I would have leverage over you, and you would have to give me whatever amount of money I wanted. I’m a bachelor and have never been with a woman before. I saw that you were beautiful and rich, and I thought her method was good, so I thought… I was wrong, my dear. If I had known you were this powerful, I wouldn’t have dared to do it.”

"Is the woman you're talking about the woman next door?"

“I don’t know who the woman next door is. I was about to go home when she suddenly stopped me and said those things. She was wearing a veil, so I couldn’t see her face. However, she was very slender and had a swaying waist when she walked. Although I couldn’t see what was under the veil, I could tell at a glance that she was young and must be quite pretty.”

Hearing this description, Su Yaoguang confirmed her suspicions.

She only had one mortal enemy here, and only that one person was malicious enough to try to smear her reputation. She just didn't want to wrongly accuse someone and needed to confirm things further.

"I can spare you, but you need to do something for me. If you succeed, this matter will be considered closed. If you fail, I will make you wish you were dead."

“Speak, heroine,” Huang Daniu said with a mournful face.

Late at night, a commotion arose. Several women arrived at Su Yaoguang's courtyard gate, hesitating whether to push the gate open and go in. "Sisters and aunts, don't hesitate! That thief hasn't come out since he went in. If we don't find a way to catch him soon, he might get away."

Previously, Zhou Wangshu led so many students under the guise of catching thieves, causing her and Xiao Yanci to lose face. Now, she is retaliating in kind, using the pretext of catching thieves to catch adulterers.

Su Yaoguang, when you become a harlot whom everyone can lose, are there still so many people who admire you, worship you, and talk about you with relish?
That old bachelor must have succeeded, right?
Zhou Wangshu is still young and certainly hasn't shared a room with Su Yaoguang. Now that she's given a man and let her experience what it's like to be a woman, she should thank her properly.

Jiang Yihuan's eyes were filled with madness.

At this moment, the sounds of a woman's soft moans and the shaking of the large bed could be heard coming from inside.

The women's faces changed when such a sound was made in the dead of night.

"Oh my god, could there really be a thief, and a womanizer at that? Scholar Zhou has gone into the examination hall, and his wife is all alone at home. I hope she doesn't get bullied."

"Is he a thief or an adulterer? Judging from the sound, that woman seems to be enjoying it. If he were a thief, he would have screamed for help." Another woman said with a look of disgust.

The women in this area are all the wives of students. Recently, Zhou Wangshu and Su Yaoguang have been enjoying considerable popularity, with many students praising them highly. Praising Zhou Wangshu alone is perfectly fine; it's just mutual admiration among students. However, the fact that the men also praise Su Yaoguang inevitably makes the women feel a pang of jealousy.

Whether he is a thief or an adulterer depends on the women's attitude. Now everyone is hesitant, unsure whether they should rush in.

Seeing that the women dared not take the lead, Jiang Yihuan cursed them inwardly for being useless. Since they wouldn't do it, she would lead the way and then fan the flames even further.

"No, we can't just sit idly by," Jiang Yihuan said, pushing open the courtyard gate.

Seeing this, the other women followed Jiang Yihuan and rushed inside.

“Sister Su, I’m here to save you…” Jiang Yihuan pushed open the door.

When the door was pushed open, the women who had been watching the play were all stunned when they saw Su Yaoguang pushing the large bed.

Su Yaoguang stared in astonishment at the people who had barged in, looking at them with a blank expression: "What are you doing?"

A woman asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?"

“I want to move the bed a bit, so…” Su Yaoguang said, “It’s too stuffy tonight, I want to move the bed a little closer to the vent, that will make it much cooler.”

Several women: "..."

Su Yaoguang's forehead was covered in sweat, and judging from her heavy breathing, she must have expended a lot of energy.

Jiang Yihuan hadn't expected this scene. The horrific scene she had imagined didn't happen.

No, she watched Huang Daniu enter the room. The man was tall and strong; there was no way he couldn't handle a woman. She should be under Huang Daniu right now.

Has he gone into hiding?
Jiang Yihuan strode in and opened the wardrobe.

"What are you doing?" Su Yaoguang said angrily. "We're not even that close, are we? You came to my house in the middle of the night and started rummaging through my closet. Are you crazy?"

"If it's a misunderstanding, why aren't you leaving? You even went into someone's room and searched their wardrobe. Do you really have some serious illness?" a woman said.
