Li Yuanzhao was worried about what to do. What if the police believed the rumors? What would happen to Xiaoxiao? What would happen to the injustice she had suffered?

Xiaoxiao's eyes welled up with tears upon hearing this. "Who on earth is slandering me like this?"

This kind of thing isn't discussed openly. And no one will tell Song Yan which leader said that.

There's nowhere to appeal.

It's unwise to argue with them. If the Cheng family coordinates their story and insists on sticking to the story when the police investigate in the village, Xiaoxiao will be accused of slandering Cheng Yi.

“If they continue to slander Jiang Xiaoxiao like this, I won’t let this matter go,” Li Yuanzhao said.

"I know." In the original story, Li Yuanzhao persisted to the end, and she also experienced a lot of hardship along the way.

Song Yan didn't want Li Yuanzhao to suffer and go through so much trouble. "Perhaps we have another way we can try."

"Is there any other way?" Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.

"The educated youth were outsiders, and although everyone in the brigade knew what was going on, they wouldn't easily speak out. Cheng Yi was, after all, a local, and the Cheng family had many relatives. It was enough for their own relatives to spread rumors."

They don't need anyone to speak for Cheng Yi; they just need to remain silent. We'll find a way to get those who are silent to speak.

Li Yuanzhao: "What methods do you use to get people who are silent to speak?" This idea is good, but how do you implement it?

Song Yan: "Let them experience despair ahead of time!"

"What do you mean?" Li Yuanzhao asked.

Song Yan didn't speak, but her eyes conveyed her hatred. You all harmed Xiaoxiao; none of you will get away with it.
