17: slander!
Chen Xiaoya gritted her teeth, glaring at Bai Wanning, and sneered, "Who are you glaring at? With your character, you still dare to glare at people? You wronged Brother Su Hu yourself, and you even colluded with a cuckold to send him to prison? You think you're really something, don't you?"
The chill in Bai Wanning's eyes deepened, but Chen Xiaoya refused to stop there; she wanted to ruin Bai Wanning's reputation so that she would never be able to snatch resources.
Chen Xiaoya turned her head to glance at the few fair-weather friends behind her, and said arrogantly, "I'm not wrong, am I? Brother Su Hu was so good to her, everyone saw it clearly. He insisted on delivering breakfast even in wind and rain, do you think he would betray her?"
"Tsk tsk... Brother Su Hu worked so hard, like an obedient dog, running errands for them, even willing to risk his life, and what was the result?"
"Don't you know what you've done? How dare you say you're worthy of him?"
Her words were aggressive, and her fair-weather friends immediately echoed her, each like a chicken on steroids, pointing at Bai Wanning and cursing her, their words sharp and vicious.
Even with the truth right in front of them, they refused to believe it, because it wasn't the version they wanted to believe.
Soon, amidst the shouting and cursing of these five people, a "public trial" devoid of any fairness began, with the sole purpose of humiliating Bai Wanning.
Behind Chen Xiaoya, a short, plump woman took the opportunity to echo, "Sister Xiaoya is right! She's simply too much, hooking up with a sugar daddy and then turning her back on everyone, sending her parents and Brother Su Hu to prison. She's heartless!"
"Brother Su Hu loved you so much, yet you still treat him like this?" another woman followed closely, glaring at Bai Wanning with disdain.
"That's right, even if he made a mistake, he did so much for you. Can't you give him some face? You grew up together, a little tolerance is better than none, isn't it?"
These women all knew in their hearts that Bai Wanning was indeed the victim.
But who made her easy to bully? They supported Chen Xiaoya simply because they understood that after this incident, even if Bai Wanning was innocent, her acting career had already come to an end.
No one could accept a woman who slept with another man and uploaded intimate photos online, even if the photos were almost immediately deleted, the fact was already there.
Given this, it was better to seize this opportunity and join forces with Chen Xiaoya.
More importantly, Su Hu was handsome, gentle, and considerate, like a sunny boy, often helping them and being generous with them.
He was also the only son of the Su family, with a wealthy background, making him their ideal type.
If Bai Wanning had broken up with him cleanly back then, instead of sending him to prison, they might still have had a chance to hook up with him.
Because of this, how could they not hate her?
What was worse was that when they went to find Su Hu, he said he didn't blame Bai Wanning, saying that he must have done something to hurt her, which was why she sent him to prison.
Such a lie could easily be seen through, but these women just refused to believe it. In their eyes, Su Hu was still that shining male god.
Bai Wanning did not argue with Chen Xiaoya or those foolish women, because she knew that arguing would yield no results; she was waiting for them to finish their farce.
It wasn't until Chen Xiaoya said, "Brother Su is such a good person, you're simply not worthy of him. You were lucky that he was willing to accept you during the time you weren't worthy of him. How dare you treat him like this?"
Bai Wanning's rationality snapped instantly. Not worthy of him? The man who, because his son hadn't woken up for a long time, cruelly sold his own son to prevent her from falling in love with someone else? Such a person, not worthy of her?
She let out a soft laugh and suddenly rushed in front of Chen Xiaoya.
Seeing her about to collide, Chen Xiaoya instinctively took a few steps back.
She raised her hand, intending to slap Bai Wanning to prove who was the protagonist here. But Bai Wanning didn't give her the chance.
She grabbed Chen Xiaoya's wrist and twisted her arm violently behind her back.
"Ah! What are you doing! Let go of me! I said, let go of me!" Chen Xiaoya screamed in pain, but Bai Wanning didn't let go. Instead, she pushed her towards the elevator entrance and forcefully pressed her head down.
Her free hand pressed the elevator's close button.
"Bitch, I originally intended to let you live quietly for a few days before sending you on your way. You're just a slimy toad, yet you dare to pretend to be a noble swan in front of me?" Bai Wanning hated Chen Xiaoya just as she hated Bai Xue.
The one holding the gun was that falsely pure white lotus, but the one supporting her behind the scenes was Chen Xiaoya.
The one who suggested selling the child was Bai Xue, but the one who actually carried it out was Chen Xiaoya!
She hadn't even had the chance to let Chen Xiaoya taste hell on earth, and this foolish woman actually delivered herself to her doorstep?
Chen Xiaoya hadn't done anything irreversible yet, but Bai Wanning clearly remembered her condescending face and her mockery after selling Bai Cai.
She actually dared to laugh at her? Then Bai Wanning would twist off her head today and see if that damned face could still smile after being crushed!
Bai Wanning learned and used many Apocalypse survival skills.
If she hadn't, she might have died at the hands of those who wanted to exploit her before the zombie virus outbreak.
At that time, resources were extremely scarce, human nature was twisted, many people were desperate, even starting to eat human flesh. How many times did Bai Wanning fall into the hands of those people? And how many times did she escape by desperately struggling?
Even when she couldn't fight, she could use cunning to kill those people and save her life. Now that she had mastered so many skills, couldn't she "take care" of Chen Xiaoya?
She lightly pressed Chen Xiaoya's neck, but her fingers never left the buttons on the side of the elevator. The two elevator doors kept clamping Chen Xiaoya's neck.
Although Bai Wanning's body was still very weak, if she was determined to kill this woman, she could absolutely do it.
