Mingzhuo looked at her with a calm and composed expression.

“I advise you to apologize to me now, and there’s still room for things to turn around.” Liu Manling was annoyed by her adopted daughter’s expression.

Ruan Mingxuan stood in front of her sister and said slowly, "I'll say the same thing to you: apologize, and I might let you off the hook."

Liu Manling was practically dying of laughter, looking at the two sisters with a sarcastic expression.

She shifted her gaze to Gu Xu, who had remained silent. This man looked like someone not to be trifled with. It was rare for a man to have such a handsome face. More importantly, he had a cold and aloof demeanor, giving people a sense of distance.

"What is your relationship with Ruan Mingzhuo?" she asked after considering her words.

Mingzhuo: "What does this have to do with you? But it won't hurt to tell you, he's my neighbor."

Liu Manling was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening.

Cheng Jiangkai said that Ruan Mingying was being kept as a mistress by the old man, and that the Ruan family now all lived in Qinghui Residence.

Next to Qinghui Residence is Luowu Residence, both villas designed by top architects and are very famous.

This gentleman must be either very rich or very powerful to be able to live in Luowu Residence.

He didn't speak up for the two sisters, clearly not wanting to get involved.

Moreover, given his appearance, he has no reason to be attracted to beautiful women; on the contrary, it's highly likely that the Ruan sisters would be the ones throwing themselves at him.

Liu Manling felt much closer to people and didn't mind showing a little kindness. "I'm sorry you had to see this. This matter will be resolved soon. The school leaders have already arrived."

Gu Xu did not respond.

More and more people gathered around, partly because they were amazed by the good looks of the people involved, and partly because the incident involved school teachers.

As for the white shirt, many girls recognized it. Wasn't that the pervert who had been harassing female students at school recently?

Did Teacher Liu have someone catch him? That's great!

"Thank you, Teacher Liu!" several girls couldn't help but shout.

Liu Manling smiled politely and nodded in response to the girls.

At this moment, the leaders of the School of Marxism rushed over, hands behind their backs, looking serious and ready to unleash their power. "What's going on here?"

He had just walked in when he saw Ruan Mingxuan standing inside, and his heart skipped a beat.

When Liu Manling saw that her backer had arrived, she immediately sneered, pointed at the security captain, and then at Ruan Mingxuan.

"The security captain allowed an outsider into the school without permission and helped the person restrict my personal freedom. Their behavior was ambiguous and unclear. I hope the school will investigate this matter thoroughly!"

The leader instinctively said, "Shut up!"

Liu Manling was stunned for a moment, wondering if she had misheard.

"No, this woman is a gold digger, and her sister is an old man's mistress..." In her desperation, Liu Manling disregarded her manners.

"Shut up! Are you out of your mind? Don't you know what it means to be a teacher? How dare you distort the truth and spew such foul language?" The leader was almost furious. "If you spread any more rumors, I can't protect you!"

They had already told her to stop talking, but she just added fuel to the fire.

Liu Manling was completely dumbfounded. What was going on? The leader who had clearly said he was there to stand up for her suddenly changed his attitude completely.

The leader walked over to Ruan Mingxuan and carefully began to speak: "This... student, I apologize for Mr. Liu's rude remarks."

Liu Manling's mind was buzzing. In her panic, another group of people walked over.

"Who is Liu Manling?" This time, it was actually several police officers who appeared.

Liu Manling panicked when she saw her husband being held captive. She thought Mingzhuo was just making threats, but who would have thought he would actually have her husband brought over!

"Honey, what's going on?"

Cheng Jiangkai didn't know what was going on either.

He had an elective class this afternoon. Although the students weren't very enthusiastic and wanted to skip it, he was very responsible and sent text messages to each student to remind them that they had to attend.

But halfway through the class, several police officers suddenly burst in and took him away.

Cheng Jiangkai was extremely flustered and desperately tried to recall what illegal or criminal things he had done along the way.

Upon seeing Liu Manling, he instantly realized that it wasn't his fault, but rather that he had been implicated by his wife!

When Mingzhuo saw the person involved arrive, he clasped his hands together and said, "Alright, you two should confess honestly how many rumors you've spread about my sister."

Seeing that the two remained silent, she thought for a moment and said, "How about I help you recall how you used a few dubious photos to spread rumors online after yesterday's Olympiad competition?"

Cheng Jiangkai looked at Liu Manling, "Why did you tell her everything?"

Liu Manling was a little confused; she hadn't mentioned that Cheng Jiangkai had posted online using an anonymous account.

How did Nguyen Minh Chok find out?

Gu Xu finally understood why Ming Zhuo was suddenly so angry and insisted on bringing the person in question over for a confrontation.

After hearing Liu Manling's words and doing some calculations, she immediately realized that Cheng Jiangkai had been spreading rumors online.

Cheng Jiangkai hadn't expected to reveal his true intentions first, so he simply said, "Zhuozhuo, I'm just concerned about your family background. You were carefully raised by our Cheng family, and I don't want you to be led astray."

"Although I was also wrong to discuss this matter online, you can't deny that your older sister is dating a rich older man."

Even if the man is widowed or divorced, and the age difference between the two is too great, it doesn't sound good to talk about.

I didn't say anything wrong; I just posted a comment about this kind of materialistic behavior. I'm not afraid of being sued.

Making a scene would only bring shame to the Ruan family, so what is there to be afraid of?

Mingzhuo said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry? Not all the parties involved have arrived yet."

"The person involved, is your sister coming over?" Cheng Jiangkai's eyes were somewhat obscure, but then he thought it was good that she was coming, as he also had something to say to Ruan Mingying.

He wanted to advise her that she was no longer young and should find an honest man who wouldn't look down on her, get married, have children, and live a stable life.

Mingzhuo: "See my sister? You're not qualified."

She took a few steps away from the crowd and waved to the people at the door, "This way."

Upon seeing the person appear in her field of vision, Ruan Mingxuan paused for a moment and couldn't help but turn her gaze to her younger sister.

Zhuozhuo is really bold... She even came directly to her brother-in-law's father.

Xu Zhongkai hadn't wanted to come. He had lost face yesterday when Ruan Mingying ignored him. He thought to himself, "Fine, if she doesn't acknowledge me, so be it. She won't be begging to see me in the future."

He had Qi Lian'an arrange a plane, intending to leave directly without giving the Ruan family a chance to back out and catch up.

Because something had delayed him, and he hadn't even had a chance to leave, Mingzhuo called him.

When Xu Zhongkai saw the post that the other party forwarded, he was so angry that he almost died. Who was the bastard who dared to spread rumors about him?

Although the other party blurred his face, it was clear that they were full of malice, only revealing his gray hair.

This is unacceptable. Why not show your face? Do you look that old?

Xu Zhongkai walked over, leaning on his cane. "What exactly happened? Who's spreading these rumors?"

Cheng Jiangkai was also stunned. Ming Zhuo actually called the old man over for such an embarrassing thing. What was he trying to do?
