FULL-LEVEL RICH DAUGHTER MAKES A STRONG COMEBACK - Chapter 940: The Crowd Dispersed

Chapter 940: The Crowd Dispersed

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Ye Leng’an, your words are truly offensive. We were simply offering kind advice, how could you speak like this?”

“That’s right, you’re heartless. What’s your motive for acting like this? You know it well.”

“Ye Leng’an, you…”

The surrounding voices of criticism once again filled the air, all directed at Ye Leng’an.

Faced with this situation, Ye Leng’an’s expression remained unchanged. She glanced around at the people and uttered coldly, “I’m simply using the law to defend my legitimate rights. What’s wrong with that? You only see Zhou Cui’an’s current pitiful state, but you fail to see her despicable actions. Gossip can be deadly. The reason I can still stand here and insist on suing those who defamed me is because my inner strength is strong enough to weather these storms. But just because I’m strong, it doesn’t mean I haven’t been hurt by this! If you all want to stand on the moral high ground and criticize me, then you’d better understand the ins and outs of this situation first before deciding what to do or say.”

After these words, everyone present was almost speechless. While they wanted to criticize Ye Leng’an again, they realized she wasn’t entirely wrong.

Ye Leng’an didn’t care about or pay attention to the thoughts of those around her. She continued, “Furthermore, if you truly sympathize with Zhou Cui’an, then when the verdict is delivered, you can assist her in apologizing and compensating me. If you want to play the role of a saint, I won’t object. But don’t direct your intentions towards me. If you’re truly kind, then help Zhou Cui’an compensate me instead of trying to persuade me to let this go.”

With that, the bystanders who had been watching dispersed immediately.

Seeing how pitiful Zhou Cui’an looked, they did feel some sympathy. However, they wouldn’t willingly assist her in apologizing and compensating.

This matter had nothing to do with them. Why should they get involved?

Humans were like this. They could sympathize unconditionally with the weak. However, when such sympathy infringed on their own interests, they were quicker than anyone to distance themselves.

Zhou Cui’an was left dumbfounded as she watched the crowd disperse. She remained kneeling, unsure of whether to continue kowtowing.

Initially, she kowtowed not only to seek Ye Leng’an’s forgiveness but also to use public pressure to force her to compromise.

However, with the onlookers gone and Ye Leng’an showing no sign of softening, continuing to kowtow seemed pointless and only brought embarrassment.

“Why aren’t you continuing to kowtow?”

Just as Zhou Cui’an hesitated, Ye Leng’an’s sarcastic voice pierced the air once more. “Didn’t you sincerely want my forgiveness? Why stop now? Planning to give up halfway?”

Hearing this, Zhou Cui’an snapped out of her daze. She lifted her head to glare at Ye Leng’an, her eyes ablaze with fury. “Ye Leng’an, are you deliberately mocking me? Are you proud of yourself for stepping all over me?

“Evil begets evil, you’re quite adept at it!”

Facing Zhou Cui’an’s accusation, Ye Leng’an sneered. “You’re the one who stopped me here today, yet you have the nerve to say such things to me now. Don’t you find yourself disgusting?

Upon hearing Ye Leng’an’s words, Zhou Cui’an could no longer contain her emotions. She stood up abruptly, her previous pitiful demeanor replaced by pure rage. “Ye Leng’an, why are you so ruthless? I know I was wrong, so why won’t you back down? Do you want to drive me to my death as an apology?”

“Haha, Zhou Cui’an, you overestimate yourself.” Ye Leng’an stepped forward, a cold smile playing on her lips. “From start to finish, I’ve never considered you a threat. It’s your repeated ignorance that has led to this situation.”

Zhou Cui’an felt a wave of oppression emanating from Ye Leng’an, making it hard to breathe. She didn’t know how to respond.

There was a hint of fear in her voice, unbeknownst even to herself. “Ye Leng’an, who are you? And is it you causing trouble for Shaohua?”

“Zhou Cui’an, aren’t you being ridiculous?” Ye Leng’an’s tone dripped with mockery. “You don’t even know who I am, yet you dare slander me online.” Her words were filled with scorn. “As for Huangfu Shaohua’s matter, that’s between you two. It has nothing to do with me. However, I suggest you first figure out your own identity.”

At this, a malicious grin crept onto Ye Leng’an’s face. “Oh, Zhou Cui’an, you accused me of having a sugar daddy online. But what about yourself? What do you call your actions? You knew Huangfu Shaohua had a fiancée, yet you still intended to come between them. And you must have spent a lot of his money! Tell me, is that not the behavior of a kept woman?”

As soon as Ye Leng’an mentioned “kept woman,” Zhou Cui’an forgot her purpose for being there.

Her eyes were red with anger as she glared at Ye Leng’an. “Ye Leng’an, shut up! Shut up! I’m not a kept woman. Shaohua and I truly love each other.”

“True love?”

Ye Leng’an’s smile widened as if she had heard a joke. “If it’s true love, then where is Huangfu Shaohua now? Why wasn’t he by your side when you were in trouble?”

The barrage of questions struck at the most vulnerable part of Zhou Cui’an’s heart, exposing a truth she was unwilling to admit.

She lifted her head, her gaze fierce, as if there were irreconcilable enmities between them.
