Listening to Xiang Wei's bitter words, Yueyao chuckled, "Luckily, I know you haven't been married; otherwise, I'd think you've suffered this kind of misery yourself!"
Xiang Wei dismissed her, saying: "I just can't stand such men. They say women are vicious, but if men could wholeheartedly treat their wives, who would ever willingly stain their hands with blood!" No woman is born wicked; it is the environment that forces them to be so.
