"Don't worry, I was blind for ten years, but my eyesight has been cured now. Look at these two, and then look at yourself. There's no way I could choose you."
“Our argument that day had nothing to do with you. You don’t really think that my argument with Qian Xiulan was because of you, do you? It’s okay for a man to be a little stupid, but it’s ridiculous to be both stupid and delusional.”
Minglu spoke slowly and deliberately, her ambiguous smile successfully provoking Jingyan's anger.
She scoffed, and before Jing Yan could get angry, she changed the subject and continued, "I didn't come here today to watch you two show off your love. What happened that day was actually very simple. Qian Xiulan insulted me first, and I was young and hot-tempered and couldn't control my temper, so I hit her and splashed her with water. So tell me what you want to do?"
After watching the video, the police officer said coldly, "We've seen the video. Do you want to settle and negotiate compensation, or do you want to go through legal proceedings?"
Qian Xiulan immediately pulled out her medical report and said, "This is my medical report. She's not leaving here until she pays compensation today."
"Let's go to court!" Minglu calmly said.
Looking at the medical report, the police officer said expressionlessly, "This doesn't even qualify as a minor injury. Both parties involved are at fault, so it doesn't constitute a crime and you don't need to be detained. However, you have disturbed public order and will be fined."
"How much should the fine be?" Qian Xiulan's eyes lit up. The fine should be large, preferably enough to make Mingluo lose a piece of flesh.
The police officer glanced at Mingluo, then at Qian Xiulan, and said, "Wait for further notice!"
The police went out.
Not long after, several police officers came back in and solemnly read out the penalty notice.
Minglu listened calmly, but couldn't help but laugh when she heard the fine was five hundred.
She paid the five hundred yuan.
Qian Xiulan's eyes widened further. "I don't accept this. She hit me, so why isn't she detained? You're protecting her."
The police officer looked at Qian Xiulan with a cold expression. "If you don't accept mediation, you can take legal action and sue them."
Ning Qi stood up with a smile and handed over a business card, "I am Mingluo's lawyer, this is my business card."
His beaming face practically screamed: "Welcome to sue!"
Qian Xiulan took the business card with a livid face. Looking at the title on it, she didn't quite understand it, and neither did Ming Jiaojiao. But Jing Yan had heard of Tianhe Law Firm and immediately understood the weight of those words.
Mingluo has found a very powerful backer this time.
He clenched his fists tightly, staring resentfully at Nie Yuchen and Ning Qi beside Ming Luo, and said to Ming Jiaojiao, "Ming Luo, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've climbed up to a powerful backer now. We'll see."
Minglu glanced at him sideways, scoffed, and felt that she would probably never have anything to say to this kind of idiot again.
Nie Yuchen gave Jing Yan a warning look, then grabbed Mingluo's wrist and walked out together.
Jing Yan stared at the two clasped hands, his anger burning fiercely within him.
Ming Jiaojiao tugged at him, her eyes filled with tears, "Jingyan, what should I do?"
"It's alright. I miscalculated this time. I thought those news reports would make her back down and admit her mistake sooner, but I didn't expect her to be so arrogant. I'll find you a lawyer. If you want to sue, we'll do it. We're not afraid of her."
Jing Yan hugged Ming Jiaojiao, his words filled with intense hatred, which made Ming Jiaojiao feel uneasy.
However, considering that this hatred was directed at Mingluo, she felt that this was for the better.
She said softly, "Jingyan, you've been so good to me. I'm so glad to be with you. I don't regret offending Mingluo for you at all. I initially thought what happened online was too cruel. I felt bad for a while when I saw others cursing her like that. But now I feel it's so unfair. No matter how much people curse her online, it can't make up for the injustice my mother suffered. As her daughter, I can't stand up for her. It's so painful."
Jing Yan quietly embraced her, and the two of them cuddled together.
Qian Xiulan was extremely anxious. The two of them hadn't even done anything yet, and they were already hugging and cuddling. It made girls seem worthless.
She said, "Yes, we need to add fuel to the fire, otherwise, Mom will be so angry she won't be able to sleep."
Jing Yan's eyes deepened. "Auntie, don't worry, I won't let you suffer in vain."
...
I left the police station.
Ning Qi took her leave, and Nie Yuchen escorted Mingluo to her house.
He had just reviewed the various data sent by Shen Yi and said, "Do you need my help?"
"Hmm?" Mingluo glanced at him and smiled. "No need. Women's matters are none of your concern as a man."
Nie Yuchen: "..."
This didn't seem quite right, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.
However, he was really angered by Qian Xiulan's foul language and desperately needed to vent his anger, but Mingluo's words made it impossible for him to do so.
He asked with some concern, "Now that the hype has built up, when do you plan to retaliate?"
"After the official documents are released," Mingluo said casually.
Nie Yuchen looked at Mingluo with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Although he didn't fully understand what Mingluo had gone through to become so impervious to fire and water, he liked her calm and composed attitude very much. Only someone with extremely strong self-confidence could have such an aura.
"If you need my help, just let me know, I'd be happy to help."
Mingluo gave him a deep look, thinking that the child might have really been infected by the peach blossom mark without realizing it, and had become unlike Nie Yuchen when they first met.
Nie Yuchen was so assertive back then, exuding an elite aura. Look at him now, so clingy.
The child is so pitiful.
She hesitated for a moment, then didn't refuse too harshly, "Okay, I'll contact you if I need anything."
Nie Yuchen started the car and drove away with satisfaction, completely unaware that he had become a key target of observation for the Peach Blossom Seal stampers at Mingluo's place.
On the way, Minglu searched for news related to herself. The number of views for news about her was already very high. However, this kind of popularity came and went quickly, lasting at most two or three days. Therefore, she had to act quickly to counterattack.
She read several news articles, all of which were criticizing her. However, one comment caught Mingluo's attention.
"Is Mingluo a jinx reincarnated? I just finished cursing her and I got hit by an electric fan. She's such a jinx to her husbands. Men should stay away from women like her in the future, lest they be cursed by her."
A few similar comments followed, all basically describing the same experience.
Mingluo clicked on the person's profile picture and took a look.
The other party was very active, leaving comments on many of her news articles, and hurling insults at her. In other news articles, they also praised men and belittled women, showing a clear hatred of women.
It seems that he cursed Mingluo too much and was possessed by too much resentment, so he suffered retribution.
Mingluo opened the news and read for a while, when a pop-up window appeared: "Report on the Incident of a Female College Student Assaulting an Elderly Person"...
