The middle-aged women were very shrewd and they could really go all out during such instances. This cultivated Pan Yunfeng"s fierce personality, which ended up in her not knowing how to hold back.

"You dated my son for six years, pretending to be virtuous and to have chast.i.ty whilst never letting my son touch you. However, in the blink of an eye, you let another man stay and spend the night at your house." Pan Yunfeng pointed at Yu Zi as she shouted and hurled insults at her, "Who knew when you started fooling around with him? Someone else already had s.e.x with you and ruined you early on, right? Which is why you had to run to my son and put on a pretentious act! Luckily, my son didn"t touch you or else he would have felt filthy and nauseous! Bah!"

A mouthful of saliva was launched out of Pan Yunfeng"s mouth as she fumed 

Yu Zi hurriedly ducked away, but it was already too late. How could she move as fast as Pan Yunfeng"s spit?

As the saliva was about to land on her body, her arm was suddenly pulled away forcefully by someone from behind. Thus, she was able to avoid the mouthful of saliva that Pan Yunfeng had launched.

As she stared blankly ahead, the mouthful of spit landed beside her foot. It was not an exaggeration to say that it would have actually landed on her shoes if she were just one inch closer.

Although she managed to dodge the filth, she was thrown off balance after being dragged so forcefully. Thus, her entire body fell backward.

Yu Zi Was shocked as her expression changed. What she did not expect was to immediately fall into a st.u.r.dy chest.

At first, she was still nervous, but the familiar light scent of lemon subsequently followed. It was as if it had a calming effect as it instantaneously made her heart relaxed.

After this, Yan Huaian helped her back to her feet. Turning her head, Yu Zi saw that he was standing diagonally behind her. One of her shoulders was leaning against one side of his chest; it was extremely intimate. 

However, Yu Zi was not able to take in the moment for lose. As she tried to regain her composure, she was promptly helped back to her feet, such that she did not realize how close the two of them had been.

Nevertheless, she felt inexplicably at ease just by seeing him. 

He was so much taller than her. Though her heels were not particularly high, she still only reached his shoulders. 

His suit and s.h.i.+rt did not have even the slightest wrinkle, hugging his body snugly in such a way that it could not possibly be any more well-fitting.

At this moment, he lowered his head to gaze at her with a look of deep concern in his eyes. He was probably nervous too, which explained why his expression was so stern. His eyebrows knitted closely in the middle, forming two small wrinkles. 

Yu Zi should actually be afraid of such a serious look. 

However, they had gotten along so well last night, and on top of that, he had helped her again just now whilst obviously being worried about her. Thus, she was absolutely at ease.

While this was going on, Yan Huaian was still protecting her. He did not let go of her hands since she was not aware of it either. One of his arms embraced her waist while the other held her arm. Then, he asked with a voice full of concern, "Are you okay?"

The beautiful voice brightened her downcast heart. Thinking about what Pan Yunfeng just said and how battered she was, she shook her head awkwardly with a paled face.

"What did I say huh! Your lover has come here looking for you! Do you feel no guilt for Jingchen? You were engaged midday just the day before, but you didn"t want to get engaged just because you decided against it. You"re bullying people because your family is rich, right? Don"t say that you didn"t cheat on him. You just broke up with my son, but you have another man protecting you almost immediately after. How can it have happened so fast when it"s only been a day?" Pan Yunfeng scolded, "You have a delicate and pure face but you"re a b.i.t.c.h in reality. You would be drowned in a pig"s cage if it were the past!"[1]

"Watch your mouth!" Yan Huaian said in a cold voice. 

"What makes you qualified to tell me off when you"re the one fooling around with her!" Pan Yunfeng rebuked, even though she no longer had the nerve after seeing Yan Huaian"s solemn face. Thus, she turned to Yu Zi and pounced on her again. "Good on you, you shameless thing. You"re already out in the open with this adulterer! He ran here to see you, after all. I pity my son who"s so depressed at home that he looks absolutely sickly."

She clearly knew that Pan Yunfeng was spreading rumors and slandering her, but how could Yu Zi explain the situation?

How could she explain that she had nothing to do with Yan Huaian? Was she supposed to say that the reason she broke up with Yue Jingchen was because his parents were the absolute best?

How was she going to explain all of this? 

She also did not want to casually speak about her own private matters out loud as this would only add more fuel to the fire. 

"You"re still talking rubbish, right?" Yan Huaian looked over coldly. Coincidentally, Song Dashen had also just finished work and was preparing to leave. Seeing that there was some sort of incident transpiring that involved with his own apprentice, he quickly came over as well.

Yan Huaian said in a cold voice, "Lawyer Song, you"ve come just in time. I want to sue her for defamation."

Yu Zi was on the Legal Counsel of Yan Hui whereas Song Dashen had a long-term contract with Yan Huaian whereby he had always been his lawyer.

Once Pan Yunfeng heard what he said, she froze for second before shouting back, "You guys are amazing and rich, but does that mean you can just bully people? What I said are all facts. Where"s the so-called defamation? Yu Zi, you don"t have a conscience! You"ve wasted six years of my son"s youth for nothing, keeping him at your service. At the same time, you"ve been doing well and fooling around with someone else outside. Don"t you feel sorry for my son? Don"t you feel sorry for us?"

As Pan Yunfeng spoke, she let out a wail and cried. Then, she advanced forward, intending to grab Yu Zi, "You come with me. You"ll go meet Jingchen with me to make everything clear to him! You want to break up, but you want to leave him hanging as well. What does this mean? Are you just trying to destroy my son!?"

Crying, Pan Yunfeng wanted to hit Yu Zi. "You b.i.t.c.h! I"ve never met such a shameless woman in my life! What makes you qualified to live such a good life and even be a lawyer? Your presence as a lawyer will only help the strong bully the weak! You, who looks like a human, but acts like a dog… n.o.body knew what kind of person you are, right? Well, now they do!"

"Enough!" Yu Zu yelled as her voice trembled.

She had never acted in such an improper way before. She had never shouted at anyone and made such a loud voice before. As her voice was choked with sobs, her entire body trembled.

Yan Huaian guarded her while feeling heartache. Then, Yu Zi said whilst holding in her tears, "I remained silent all along, but don"t bully others here and speak so vulgarly. I"ve never done any of those things that you said!"

"Never done it? You"ve never done it but you"re hugging this man so tightly?" Pan Yunfeng wiped her tears, sniffled, then cried out, "I"ll beat you to death! I cannot let my son miss such an indecent s.l.u.t! He still has a bright future ahead of him and I won"t let it be destroyed by you! I"ll beat you to death, you s.l.u.t!"

Pan Yunfeng ferociously tried to grab Yu Zi, but as she extended her hands, she was stopped by Yan Huaian who gripped her wrist strongly. Yan Huaian"s expression hardened as Pan Yunfeng instantly started wailing and shouting in pain. Her originally flushed complexion became ghastly as well.

"Where"s the security guard?" Song Dashen called out with an unpleasant look. He turned right on time to see two security guards running towards them. He growled angrily at them, "There has been somebody causing trouble here for so long. What were you guys doing?"

Both of the security guards hurriedly apologized and pulled Pan Yunfeng away. 

"Watch her properly in the future and don"t let her come in!" Song Dashen said angrily. He glanced at the people who were rubbernecking in the crowd and snapped, "With a mother-in-law like you, anybody who marries into your family will be out of luck. Who can put up with the skilled tongue of this false accuser?"

"Let go of me! Yu Zi, you"re shameless. You guys…you guys gang up to bully others! I demand justice for my son! I truly have such bad luck to come across a woman as shameless as you!"

Pan Yunfeng"s voice became increasingly distant as she was being dragged away by the security guards until she could no longer be seen. 

Yu Zi"s face was deathly pale. The humiliated tears welled up in her eyes as she did her best to hold in her tears.

Based on her habits from the past, Song Dashen knew that Yu Zi would definitely want to stay in the office to work overtime until she successfully sorted out all of today"s information before leaving.

Hence, he said, "Don"t stay here and work overtime today. Now that you"ve already finished work, just go home and have a good rest."

Yu Zi lowered her head and nodded slightly without speaking.

She could not utter a word as her entire throat was dry. 

Yan Huaian nodded to Song Dashen before leaving while guarding Yu Zi. 

Standing in place while watching the two of them leave, Song Dashen could not help but be a little curious about when Yan Huaian had formed such a good relations.h.i.+p with his apprentice.

Yan Huaian was preparing to bring Yu Zi to the car but quickly realized that Pan Yunfeng might not actually have left yet. 

The security guards could only expel Pan Yunfeng from the office building. They could not do anything to stop her from loitering around outside.

Seeing them, especially Yan Huaian, who had s.h.i.+elded Yu Zi so much and even embraced her from behind in an intimate position, she firmly believed with reddened eyes that Yu Zi had engaged in an illicit s.e.xual relations.h.i.+p with another man. She was so mad that she about to rush forward.

"Mom!" Yue Jingchen came over hastily while panting. He stopped Pan Yunfeng just in time. "Mom, what are you doing!?"

He was going to be on duty at the hospital that night, and thus gave Pan Yunfeng a call to tell her that he would not be returning for dinner that night. Once again, Pan Yunfeng talked while reprimanding and complaining about Yu Zi, before him again whether he had amused Yu Zi.

Although she was dissatisfied with Yu Zi and felt that she looked down on them since Yu Zi had a good family background, she could not let go of the money from Yu Zi"s family and the benefits her family background would bring. 

Therefore, even though she could not put up with Yu Zi, she simultaneously urged Yue Jingchen to hurry up and reconcile with her.

She had already flaunted the fact that Yue Jingchen had discussed getting married with a particularly remarkable girlfriend to her friends. The main purpose of doing so was certainly not to make out Yu Zi as somebody outstanding. On the contrary, it was to show off that her own son was capable enough to get a young lady with such a good family background to pursue him, rather than the other way around.

However, in reality, Yue Jingchen was the one who had been pursuing Yu Zi. Yu Zi did not mind that Yue Jingchen did not have anything at all, yet Pan Yunfeng did not mention a single one these facts.
