Chapter 941: Paying the Price

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Looking at Zhou Cui’an’s ferocious expression, Ye Leng’an couldn’t help but laugh. “Zhou Cui’an, don’t treat everyone else like fools.” freёwebnoѵel.com

“Ye Leng’an, no matter how you put it, you just won’t let me off the hook, will you?” There was a hint of resentment in Zhou Cui’an’s eyes. “Why are you so cruel? Do you know how hard I worked and how much effort I put into getting into Capital University? Why would you ruin my future over such a trivial matter?”

“A trivial matter?” Ye Leng’an’s expression turned cold upon hearing Zhou Cui’an’s words. “Zhou Cui’an, you keep saying you know you’re wrong, but now you’re describing your slanderous actions as trivial. Is this how someone who acknowledges their mistake behaves?”

“Ye Leng’an, you’re simply going too far.”

Zhou Cui’an finally realized that Ye Leng’an had no intention of letting this matter go. Even after she had apologized and admitted her mistake, she still intended to pursue it. Since that was the case, she saw no reason to continue bowing down to her.

“I’ve already been sincere enough. You’re just heartless. And now, you’re using all sorts of excuses to cover up your actions. Let me tell you, if you won’t let me live in peace, I won’t let you either.”

“Zhou Cui’an, everyone must pay the price for their actions. It’s only by paying the price that one learns a lesson and knows what they can and cannot do in the future.” Ye Leng’an looked at Zhou Cui’an, sneering. “As for how you plan to make me suffer, I’ll wait and see.”

With that, she walked past Zhou Cui’an and left the classroom.

She didn’t want to waste any more time dealing with Zhou Cui’an, especially when the other was being so persistent.

Watching Ye Leng’an’s confident departure, Zhou Cui’an’s eyes reddened with hatred. Clenching her fists and gritting her teeth, she emitted an intense aura of animosity.

For Ye Leng’an, Zhou Cui’an’s actions were just a minor incident, having no real impact on her.

However, after this incident, discussions about it in the school grew increasingly heated. Opinions were divided but generally fell into two camps.

Some believed that Ye Leng’an’s actions were justified. Everyone should face the consequences of their actions. The internet was not above the law. If someone did wrong, they should bear the repercussions. Others felt that since Zhou Cui’an had admitted her mistake, Ye Leng’an shouldn’t continue to press her. Instead, she should forgive her classmate with a broader mind.

This incident sparked unprecedented attention to cyberbullying. Many individuals began to think twice before posting, considering whether their words were true and their potential impact on others.

Observing the changes in the school forum, the school leaders were pleased. It solidified their determination to use this incident as a lesson for all students.

The trial between Ye Leng’an and Zhou Cui’an proceeded swiftly. Ye Leng’an did not attend but instead entrusted her lawyer to represent her fully. As for Zhou Cui’an, although she had also hired a lawyer, it was undoubtedly clear that she lost the lawsuit.

The outcome of this trial was predictable, as Ye Leng’an had ample evidence on her side. When Zhou Cui’an posted the message, it was merely an act of personal vindication, lacking any evidence to substantiate the truthfulness of her post.

The court rendered its verdict, not only requiring Zhou Cui’an to publicly apologize to Ye Leng’an but also ordering her to provide a hundred thousand in compensation for mental distress.

On the day of the trial, although Ye Leng’an did not appear in court, she also did not attend classes. Instead, she skipped the entire day and remained in her villa to rest.

With Ye Leng’an absent from class, Huangfu Ruiling naturally didn’t go to work at the company. Instead, he stayed with Ye Leng’an at the villa, enjoying some quality time together.

At that moment, the two of them were nestled on the sofa watching a movie. Huangfu Ruiling lounged on the sofa, exuding a lazy and sensual aura, while Ye Leng’an lay with her head resting on his thigh.

As they quietly watched the movie, a warm and sweet atmosphere enveloped them, tinted with intimacy. However, just as the movie continued to play, the sharp ringing of a phone shattered the cozy ambiance.

Ye Leng’an picked up her phone and answered the call. After a brief conversation, she ended with a simple “Got it” before hanging up.

Huangfu Ruiling reached out, stroking her hair. “Was that a call from the lawyer?”

Today was the day of the court hearing. Considering the swift legal proceedings, the case should have reached a verdict by now.

“Indeed.” Ye Leng’an attempted to nod but found it awkward in her current position, so she abandoned the idea. “The court has made its decision. The matter is considered resolved.”

After relaying the court’s verdict, Ye Leng’an continued, “I don’t particularly care about the one hundred thousand compensation for mental distress. However, the public apology is necessary.”

A shadow passed over Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes as he remarked, “There’s something else you might find interesting. Huangfu Shaohua is getting married.”

“What?” Ye Leng’an almost sat up upon hearing the news, but Huangfu Ruiling quickly calmed her down. She settled back down and asked eagerly, “How is this happening so suddenly? I don’t recall you mentioning this before!”

“It’s a perfectly normal affair, isn’t it?” Huangfu Ruiling raised an eyebrow. “The marriage between Huangfu Shaohua and Xiao Ruowen, the third daughter of the Xiao family, has long been arranged. Now that they’re not getting any younger, planning to tie the knot seems perfectly reasonable, doesn’t it?”

“Really?” Ye Leng’an narrowed her eyes, gazing at his flawless face above her. “Why do I feel like there’s more to this than meets the eye?”
