Chapter 937: The Difficult Situation
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“What? Are you suggesting that I’m unkind just because I won’t help you?” Murong Yumeng’s expression grew more mocking. “Zhou Cui’an, who do you think you are? Why do you keep demanding my help without any boundaries? Let me warn you, don’t call me again. My time is valuable, and I don’t want to waste it on someone like you.”
With those words, she was about to leave.
“Senior Sister, please wait,” Zhou Cui’an hurriedly called out. “I implore you, just help me this once! Besides, I ended up like this because I was trying to help you.”
Although she didn’t understand why Murong Yumeng had changed so much, she had no other options. If Murong Yumeng left, she would truly be in trouble.
Hearing Zhou Cui’an’s plea, Murong Yumeng turned to look at her with cold eyes. “Zhou Cui’an, there’s no need for you to spout nonsense here. You know exactly what you’re thinking. The reason you spread those rumors is simply because you’re jealous of Ye Leng’an. Don’t pretend that you’re trying to help me. If you believe in such nonsense, keep it to yourself. Don’t try to push it onto others. And why do you think you have the ability to help me?”
“No!” Zhou Cui’an shook her head. “I posted that thread on the school forum because of what you said. Otherwise, how would I know that Ye Leng’an was pursuing a sugar daddy?”
Until then, she had always thought that Ye Leng’an was just a wealthy girl. If it weren’t for Murong Yumeng’s words, she wouldn’t have posted that message.
“I never said Ye Leng’an was pursuing a sugar daddy.” Murong Yumeng sneered. “That’s all just your assumption. And don’t try to blame others for your mistakes. No one else should pay for your foolish actions.”
These words left Zhou Cui’an speechless. She opened her mouth, but couldn’t find anything to say.
The repeated blows left Zhou Cui’an feeling defeated. She slumped to the ground, looking like she had lost her mind.
Murong Yumeng felt no sympathy for Zhou Cui’an. “If you want to drag me down with you, go ahead. I don’t care. But remember… Slandering me without consequences might be more than you can handle.”
Ignoring Zhou Cui’an, Murong Yumeng turned and walked away.
Left behind, Zhou Cui’an stared blankly at Murong Yumeng’s retreating figure, shivering. She never imagined that a person could change so quickly.
She used to think Murong Yumeng was an innocent and kind girl. Now, she realized that Murong Yumeng had been acting in front of her. But she couldn’t understand why.
None of that mattered now. What mattered was her difficult situation.
From Murong Yumeng’s words, she knew Huangfu Shaohua wouldn’t intervene anymore. Even if she wanted to ask him, she couldn’t find him!
She realized that despite being Huangfu Shaohua’s girlfriend in name, she didn’t really know him. She couldn’t reach him if he didn’t want to talk to her.
Before, she had been proud of being Huangfu Shaohua’s girlfriend. Now, it seemed she was just his plaything.
With Huangfu Shaohua giving up on her and Murong Yumeng refusing to help, what was she to do? Beg Ye Leng’an?
But the thought of begging Ye Leng’an was unbearable. Yet, her future would be ruined if the matter wasn’t resolved.
If she had once thought she could rely on Huangfu Shaohua, now she knew she could only rely on herself.
If Ye Leng’an won the lawsuit, her reputation would be ruined. She would face countless rumors in school, not to mention the punishment. With a punishment on her record, finding a good job after graduation wouldn’t be easy.
Then why had she worked so hard and gotten into Capital University?
She was also worried that Ye Leng’an might retaliate against her.
She had thought Huangfu Shaohua, as a member of the prestigious Huangfu family, could handle it. But now, even he had backed down.
What kind of background did Ye Leng’an have to be so powerful? If that was the case, they didn’t need to go to court; they already knew the outcome.
The top students who got into Capital University weren’t fools. Zhou Cui’an understood the situation.
But the thought of begging Ye Leng’an was unbearable. It was worse than swallowing a fly.
Still, she had to do it. Otherwise, her life would be ruined. With Huangfu Shaohua no longer reliable, she had to rely on herself.
After psyching herself up, Zhou Cui’an finally dialed Ye Leng’an’s number.
When she heard Ye Leng’an’s voice, her hatred surged. But thinking of the school punishment and the unknown outcome of the lawsuit, she suppressed it and replied.
She didn’t expect that Ye Leng’an would hang up as soon as she spoke.
Seeing the hung-up phone, Zhou Cui’an couldn’t suppress her jealousy and hatred. She threw the phone to the ground.
With a clang, the phone shattered.
Many passersby saw and recognized Zhou Cui’an, starting to gossip.
Unable to bear the stares, Zhou Cui’an left.
