Linghu Lan glanced at the crowd, her heart unmoved. Where there are people, there is trouble; she was used to it. She had come out today to get some fresh air and take a good look at the human world she had worked so hard to survive in.
She didn't care at all about what others said about her. That's just how the world is. Everyone talks about others behind their backs. In this world, talking about someone is almost a necessary means to get closer to them.
She said it, and that's that; she didn't care.
However, it's wrong to portray the money she worked so hard to earn over the years as compensation from a scumbag couple.
She smiled gently, like a soft breeze, which was very tender and touching, but the determination in her eyes conveyed a clear message: she was not someone who would be easily bullied.
“You just said that my money was given to me by that scumbag couple. You're wrong. I earned this money through my own hard work. I donated that scumbag couple's money to charity. They treated me like that, so I'm fighting for my legal rights and demanding legal compensation. Isn't that right? We're all adults. We all know what we can and can't say. We all know our limits, right?”
"Donated it to charity?" Zeng Hui's mouth dropped open in surprise. "You're so heartless. You should have kept that trash's money. They hurt you so badly back then. Ugh, you really make me angry."
Linghu Lan smiled and said, "It's nothing, it doesn't mean anything. It's good to be alive."
Moreover, given her current abilities, there are countless ways for her to make a living and earn money. It wouldn't be too difficult for her to live a good and comfortable life. Furthermore, she has a feeling that her salary will definitely increase again after returning to Nano.
The others also felt a little regretful.
"Hey! Yeah, that money was free money, but now that I think about it, Tang Xinyou was a scoundrel. Linghu Lan, don't overthink it. What we talked about at our last gathering was also to stand up for you. You know, when I heard that those two were sentenced to prison and had to pay compensation, I was really happy for you."
"Yes! Yes! I specifically read the verdict document online several times, scrutinizing every single word."
"Linghu Lan, you have such high awareness. Seven or eight hundred thousand, you just gave it away without even blinking an eye. Impressive, impressive. I think our class will be successful in the future."
Everyone spoke up to express their opinions, especially those who had just been betrayed by Fang Mei. They tried their best to prove their innocence to Linghu Lan and to show goodwill.
The crowd gathered around Linghu Lan, and the atmosphere became lively again.
Fang Mei bit her lip, somewhat annoyed, and even feeling a sense of shame at being abandoned by the group. She couldn't help but ask the question that most people were wondering about: "So what are you doing now? Wearing such nice clothes, how much do you earn a month?"
Asking someone's salary is very impolite, especially in public; it's enough to make anyone cringe.
Linghu Lan hadn't met someone as jealous and brainless as Xiang Fangmei in a long time, so she suddenly became interested and said with a smile, "The job is alright, but at least you don't rely on your family, so you can spend the money with a clear conscience."
"You can't rely on your family even if you want to." Fang Mei wasn't embarrassed that she was able to maintain her elegance and dignity by relying on her family; on the contrary, she was very proud of it and even regained her sense of superiority.
