Bai Yajing opened her eyes only after all the sisters-in-law who had brought her there had left.
His eyes were clear, without any trace of the confusion of unconsciousness.
Wang Hui has harmed her time and time again, and she is not going to be foolish enough to just endure it.
Even though she would be hurt by the rumors this time, Bai Yajing still felt unsatisfied.
That woman has skin as thick as a city wall; rumors can't kill her!
She's waiting, waiting for the key person to come and give her a good talking-to!
At that moment, hurried footsteps could be heard outside the door.
The door was then opened.
Despite the freezing weather, Xiao Che was covered in sweat from running.
"Annie, how are you? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
He anxiously checked on Bai Yajing as soon as he arrived. Although he knew Bai Yajing wasn't such a fragile woman and wouldn't try to kill herself because of these rumors.
When he heard the messenger say that she was going to smash her head against a stone pillar to prove her innocence with her death, he broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that she might really do something rash.
After all, in this day and age, a woman's innocence is not just about what others say. If things get out of hand, regardless of whether it's true or not, if the impact is too great, she could be reported and lose her life!
As he ran here, he was so anxious that he wanted to kill someone!
Several people who came to visit him were also with him, including members of the Women's Federation.
Seeing his anxious state, Bai Yajing sighed helplessly, but noticing the person following behind, she pouted and called out in a tearful voice, "A-Zhi..."
She gently hooked her hand around the other's palm to comfort him.
Xiao Che received the signal and felt relieved, but his anger was still burning.
"Annie, don't worry, get some rest. I won't let you suffer this injustice for nothing! Leave the rest to me."
After saying that, he got up angrily and prepared to leave.
Bai Yajing grabbed him, glancing at the people rushing in from outside the door.
She rested her head on his shoulder and whispered softly.
"Ah Zhi, I want to go home..."
Her utterly despondent appearance evoked even more pity from those at the door who knew the whole story, some of whom even seemed a little guilty...
Along with his guilty conscience came a growing aversion to Wang Hui.
What grudge could they possibly hold against them?! To resort to such a despicable and vicious scheme to kill someone! They're utterly inhuman!
Women's Director Huang Guihua quickly stepped forward.
"Annie! Thank goodness you're alright! That day Wang Hui said something about you... I didn't believe her at the time! I even said a few words to her!"
I told everyone there not to spread rumors, but I didn't expect them to... sigh! ..."
As she spoke, she looked both helpless and angry.
Upon hearing this, Bai Yajing's eyes immediately reddened again, and she covered her face, burying her face in Xiao Che's arms and sobbing.
The small sob made everyone present feel a pang in their hearts.
Huang Guihua quickly led several of her sisters-in-law forward to persuade her, fearing that she might be suicidal.
"Comrade Annie, we all know what kind of person you are. You're not one of those brainless idiots who spout nonsense!"
We'll clear things up for you! Don't worry!
"Yes, you mustn't do anything rash, or you'll just be playing right into their hands!"
