2492 Lost Dog
As she pa.s.sed through the audience, she listened to the voices that came from all directions and kept telling herself, “It’s okay… It’s okay. They’re not important people. They can say whatever they want.”
She was so embarra.s.sed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in, but she still kept numbing herself. She chose to escape reality again and again.
This time, Sun Ying was convinced that she was able to walk out of her predicament because Madam Li had personally promised her. Also… someone came to visit her last night and gave her a ‘calming pill’.
“You don’t have to be afraid. Since Madam Li allowed you to leave, she must have come up with a foolproof plan for you. Besides, you didn’t commit any substantial crimes. At most, you’ll just be sued for slander. What’s there to be afraid of?
!!
“Make sure you’re well-behaved tomorrow. It wasn’t easy for Madam Li to arrange these things. If you ruin the plan, you might not be able to leave. Tomorrow, be obedient and well-behaved. You’ll have less trouble that way, do you understand?”
The words that the person came to tell her last night echoed in her mind. Sun Ying’s legs trembled as she gradually relaxed.
There was nothing to be afraid of. Madam Li had already made arrangements. Besides slander, there was nothing else she had to worry about.
The military unit sending her back had nothing to do with Ye Jian. Sun Ying had already accepted the fine and imprisonment. Today, she would definitely regain her freedom just like what the person said last night!
She had been looking forward to regaining her freedom day and night. Even if she had to step on her biological father’s life, she would make sure she walked out of this place.
If one didn’t do what one wanted, the heavens would destroy one!
This was taught to her by her father, her father who didn’t care about anyone if they hindered his future!
A second ago, Sun Ying was so embarra.s.sed by her uniform that she wanted to dig a hole for herself. Now, she suddenly grinned. It was sinister and terrifying.
She no longer lowered her head. Instead, she raised her head and admitted defeat. No, she would not admit defeat!
Even if she was Sun Ying and not Ye Ying, she would not admit defeat!
Madam Li said that she would let her regain her freedom this time. The person who came to see her last night also said that she would be fine.
‘Do you see that? Even though I’m wearing a prisoner’s uniform, there are still people helping me!
‘But what about Ye Jian?
‘So what if she has thought of everything? Can she win against Madam Li’s words? Can she win against power?’
Sun Ying couldn’t help but feel proud. She wanted to raise her chin and face Ye Jian arrogantly. Before she could do that, the bailiff locked the small gate that was just above Ye Ying’s waist.
In the quiet scene, the sound of the lock was extremely loud. With a click, it showed everyone how a criminal was treated… As long as one was still wearing a prisoner’s uniform, one was a criminal!
Sun Ying, who wanted to make up for some of her embarra.s.sment just now, didn’t manage to show any arrogance. Instead, she looked a little embarra.s.sed.
Sun Ying blushed in embarra.s.sment and anger. She glanced around from the corner of her eyes and saw something that made her feel even better.
Madam Li was right. As long as she appeared, there was nothing she couldn’t do. Look, that wicked girl, Ye Jian, didn’t even dare to hire a lawyer. She only dared to sit in the audience.
Ye Jian found it funny. She really didn’t know how Sun Ying, who was wearing a prisoner’s uniform, had the confidence to put on airs in front of her. Just because Madam Li agreed to hire a lawyer to defend her? Just because she agreed to let her regain her freedom today?
How could she be so naive?
No, she wasn’t naive. She was stupid.
