Your Holiness, Am I Still a Scumbag?

Right.

To say it's possible.

Cao Mengde is the only possibility.

After all, the two came together, holding hands, indicating a close relationship.

Before Cao Mengde could reply...

Bibi Dong was immediately overwhelmed.

"Lord Mengde, do you intend to get involved in this matter?"

We won't go into the fact that Cao Mengde and Hu Liena slept together.

The key point is...

I slept with him too.

Cao Mengde, on the other hand, is now actually with Qian Renxue?

This isn't just about the mother and daughter...

Although Bibi Dong was unwilling to acknowledge this relationship, the fact that she had been intimate with Cao Mengde both times made her very uncomfortable.

"How dare you speak to Mengde like that?"

"Mengde, she is blaspheming your divine authority," Qian Renxue said coldly.

Cao Mengde was caught in the middle and was in a very difficult situation.

Qian Renxue, please stop trying to sow discord.

If this continues, something terrible is bound to happen.

He turned his head, looked at Hu Liena, and then at Qian Renxue.

"You two go out first. I need to speak with His Holiness the Pope alone."

"Why should I go out?" Hu Liena was already furious.

He vented his anger on Cao Mengde on the spot.

What does he think he is?

A heartless man.

Scumbag.

He kept calling her "baby" this and "baby" that, but it was all a lie.

"Hu Liena, if you dare to disrespect Mengde again, I'll tear your mouth apart."

"Don't think you can be arrogant just because you're the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall. In front of me, you are nothing."

Qian Renxue showed Hu Liena no mercy.

Pointing his finger at the other person's nose and scolding them on the spot.

This scene.

This gave Cao Mengde a real headache.

He had no choice but to look at Bibi Dong, "I need to talk to you alone."

Bibi Dong would be so angry she'd want to tear Cao Mengde to pieces.

What kind of lousy good person is he, with high moral character?

She must have been blind; how could she have made such a judgment about Cao Mengde back then?

He was filled with anger and was about to vent it.

"Nana, you can go out now."

"Xiao Xue, you should go out too."

The two women left one after the other.

Bibi Dong flashed down from the Pope platform and raised her fair, jade-like hand to fan Cao Mengde.

Fortunately, Cao Mengde reacted quickly.

He grabbed her wrist.

"Dong'er, let's talk things out calmly. Why get so angry?"

Bibi Dong began to curse.

"Cao Mengde, have you no shame?"

"You and Nana are engaged, so why are you having an affair with her?"

"Now you're even helping her pressure me, you're such a good person."

This moment.

Cao Mengde's image in Bibi Dong's heart was completely shattered.

Before.

She still felt guilty towards Cao Mengde and was constantly thinking about how to make amends to him.

After all, he was too old, and he had already given Cao Mengde that...

Now it seems...

This guy is just faking it.

He's just a lecherous man.

"Your His Holiness the Pope, can we talk this out calmly?"

"You won't solve the problem like this."

Bibi Dong gave a cold laugh.

She was so angry at Cao Mengde that she laughed. After shaking off Cao Mengde's hand, she slowly nodded.

"OK."

"I'd like to hear your excuses now."

"Start making excuses."

No matter what Cao Mengde says, he cannot change the fact that he is two-timing.

This is what a scumbag, a piece of trash, a beast looks like.

Cao Mengde, of course, had to offer a defense; otherwise, how could he break the deadlock?

He spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Your His Holiness the Pope, what excuse do you want me to make?"

Bibi Dong glared at her, her beautiful eyes blazing with anger; she was clearly furious.

"Of course, it's just an excuse for why you let Nana down."

The situation between him and me could be due to unavoidable circumstances caused by treatment methods.

But what about Hu Liena?

That's a woman who's engaged.

"I'm with Xiao Xue out of necessity," Cao Mengde sighed solemnly, seemingly burdened by many difficulties.

"Ha... absurd!"

"That thing is on your body, and you're saying you had no choice?"

"Cao Mengde, your methods of deception are truly lacking in sophistication."

Cao Mengde dared to come to find Bibi Dong with Qian Renxue.

And he held hands with Qian Renxue right in front of her, having already devised a plan.

"I admit, I was with Xiao Xue willingly."

These words were spoken.

Bibi Dong, like a wild horse unleashed, erupted in curses.

"You admit it, right? You finally admit it, right?"

"Cao Mengde, you... you shameless bastard, you're a pervert, a scumbag..."

But Cao Mengde remained calm and unhurried.

He continued speaking.

"Nana and I are engaged, which means I am a member of the Pope's Palace."

"In the future, you will definitely use me against the Douluo Hall led by Qian Renxue, and Qian Renxue will also come after you. She might even resort to any means to win me over. So, should I help you or help Xiao Xue?"

"I'd rather take all the sins of the world upon myself."

Hearing this explanation...

Why did Bibi Dong find this so strange?

It seems Cao Mengde feels no remorse whatsoever; on the contrary, he acts as if it's perfectly justified and righteous.

"Cao Mengde, explain yourself clearly."

"You did something to betray Nana, yet you speak so righteously. What exactly do you mean by that?"

Well...

Cao Mengde strolled slowly through the main hall, explaining meaningfully.

"You and I know that you and Xiao Xue don't get along, to the point where you're irreconcilable enemies."

"Rather than seeing you fight to the death in the future, I'd rather take Xiao Xue and Nana under my wing. That way, even if you don't care about me, you'll be more considerate and won't fight because of my presence."

That's all for now.

Bibi Dong finally understood.

She clearly hated Cao Mengde's heartless behavior.

But now.

That resolute heart began to waver.

Seeing that Bibi Dong was stunned.

Cao Mengde seized the opportunity and struck while the iron was hot.

"I was just too kind-hearted. The struggle between you and your mother is even more cruel. In order to quell your conflict, I ruined my own reputation and now I'm burdened with the stigma of being a scumbag. Do you think it's been easy for me?"

"Your His Holiness the Pope, tell me now, am I, Cao Mengde, still a scumbag?"

"Of course, opinions vary. If you insist on calling me a scumbag, there's nothing I can do. After all, I have wronged Nana."

After a while.

The Pope's Palace remained completely silent.

Bibi Dong's anger had been largely extinguished.

She had previously believed that Cao Mengde was a scumbag, but now she couldn't bring herself to say it.

Because it concerns a private matter between him and Qian Renxue.

Although she disliked outsiders interfering in such matters, Cao Mengde now had a close relationship with the Pope's Palace. Even if she didn't do anything to Qian Renxue, she couldn't hide the fact that others were trying to win over Cao Mengde and would even oppose her.

This was an unavoidable turmoil.

Cao Mengde's foresight in nipping the seeds of hatred in the bud and preventing tragedy from occurring was truly remarkable.

She...

We really can't blame Cao Mengde.

"So now you're helping her to deal with me?" Bibi Dong changed the subject, no longer discussing whether Cao Mengde was a scumbag, but instead changed the topic.

Cao Mengde delivered a righteous and awe-inspiring speech.

Finally, they managed to win over Bibi Dong.

I felt much more relaxed overall.

He shrugged and said nonchalantly.

Why would I want to mess with you?

"It's just a show for Xiao Xue. I'll explain to her later."

"Before that, there's something I must remind you: you should be prepared for mother and daughter to reconcile."
