Huo Cheng’s loud accusations naturally drew the attention of many students.
They all stopped and gathered nearby to watch the commotion.
Wen Zhili’s gaze fell on the medical records printed on those sheets of paper.
Her hands clenched tightly as she stared at the man before her.
In her past life, she must have been blind to have fallen for such a fool.
Wen Zhili flung the printed papers back into Huo Cheng’s face and said calmly, “This is slander. These aren’t my medical records—they’re all photoshopped. Believe it or not. But if you insult me one more time, I won’t hold back!”
Wen Yuxuan also walked over, feigning concern as she advised, “Zhili, we’re just trying to help! Your improper behavior outside has brought shame to both our families.”
Wen Zhili could easily guess who was behind this act.
Only Wen Yuxuan would be so bored as to stoop to such despicable deeds.
A mocking smile curled at the corner of Wen Zhili’s lips. “Wen Yuxuan, which family are you part of? The matter hasn’t even been investigated yet. Why are you in such a hurry to jump in? Are you eager to frame someone or to throw mud?”
A flicker of guilt flashed in Wen Yuxuan’s eyes.
Huo Cheng stepped forward to defend her. “Wen Zhili, it’s clearly you who’s shameless and disgraceful, yet you’re blaming—”
This time, Wen Zhili didn’t hesitate. She swung her bag and struck Huo Cheng’s face.
“Say one more word! Just try it!”
Huo Cheng covered his face, fuming. “You… you hit me again! Wen Zhili, how dare you!”
“You asked for it with that filthy mouth!” Wen Zhili said coldly. “If you keep it up, I’ll go tell Master Huo.”
In the past, no matter how badly Huo Cheng treated her, she never told Master Huo, afraid he would punish him.
But now, she wished Master Huo would take a whip and beat Huo Cheng to death!
Huo Cheng seemed as if he’d been struck at a vital point. “You… you’re going to tattle?”
“If you don’t get lost now, I’ll go see Master Huo right away.”
Though unwilling, Huo Cheng grabbed Wen Yuxuan and quickly left.
Wen Yuxuan glanced back, her eyes filled with venom.
This wasn’t over!
After reporting the incident to the police station, Wen Zhili went to the hospital to retrieve surveillance footage and her real medical records.
The surveillance footage had been blocked, but the hospital was willing to provide her medical records.
She then prepared to take the records back to school to find her counselor, hoping the school would intervene and punish those who had maliciously slandered her in the group chat.
Just as she reached the school gate near a narrow alley, a man with a face full of acne, dark skin, and greasy hair gel stopped her.
Chewing gum, his eyes filled with greed and lust, he said, “You’re Wen Zhili, right? Come take a ride with me later. I’ll give you three hundred bucks. How about it?”
He took out three hundred yuan and threw it in front of Wen Zhili.
Wen Zhili felt her stomach churn.
“Get lost! Or I’ll call the police!”
The man sneered contemptuously. “You cheap slut, still acting all high and mighty! I don’t even mind that you’re dirty. Being willing to sleep with you is a great favor!”
Just then, Wen Zhili caught sight of a familiar luxury car passing by them out of the corner of her eye.
The car stopped.
The window rolled down, revealing Huo Cheng’s face.
In the passenger seat sat Wen Yuxuan, her eyes brimming with smug satisfaction.She exchanged a glance with the pimply man, a meaningful curve appearing at the corner of her mouth.
Wen Yuxuan held Huo Cheng’s hand, sighing with a look of pity. “I really didn’t want to believe it, but now I’ve witnessed the transaction firsthand… Ah, Zhili really has no self-respect, does she?”
Wen Zhili knew that all of this had been deliberately orchestrated by Wen Yuxuan.
Rather than seeking help from them, she might as well beg a dog!
Huo Cheng’s eyes were filled with disgust and disdain. “Wen Zhili, you’re truly despicable, utterly filthy! You disgust me.”
With that, Huo Cheng drove off in a cloud of dust.
Wen Yuxuan stuck out her tongue at Wen Zhili, flashing a mischievous smile.
Seeing this, Wen Zhili curled her lips into a mocking smile. “What a pair of scumbags.”
The pimply man laughed arrogantly. “See? Even your fiancé thinks you’re cheap! But I don’t mind you being dirty. I’ll take good care of you tonight.”
He reached out to touch Wen Zhili, but in the next second, a flying dagger pierced through his palm, blood instantly gushing out.
The pimply man clutched his injured hand, his face twisted in pain. “Ah—it hurts! Who did this?!”
A black Maybach was parked not far away.
After the car door opened, Huo Shengbai and his driver, Zhang Hengwu, quickly stepped out.
Driver Zhang Hengwu still held a throwing knife in his hand. If that pervert dared to touch Miss Wen again, he would throw another one.
They carried pistols, but considering this was downtown, firing a gun would not only cause a commotion but also frighten Miss Wen. So, he had used the throwing knife first to stop the pervert from touching her.
Huo Shengbai’s face was dark, his eyes swirling with turbulent shadows and murderous intent.
Zhang Hengwu, who served as both his driver and bodyguard, grew tense all over upon seeing the boss in this state.
He hadn’t seen the boss this angry in years!
This guy was dead for sure!
Huo Shengbai clenched his fists tightly.
He even regretted his earlier decision!
He wished he could kill this scum right then and there!
He had arrived two minutes earlier.
He had noticed Huo Cheng’s car stopping beside Lili.
He hadn’t gotten out immediately but waited until Huo Cheng had driven away completely.
He admitted he wanted Lili to see Huo Cheng’s true nature clearly, to make her give up on him entirely.
He had always known just how much Lili loved that man!
So, even though Lili had said she wanted to marry him since that day, and he had been overjoyed and thrilled, deep down, he still harbored unease and fear.
The closer he came to having her, the more afraid he was of losing her!
He feared that Lili’s choice of him was only temporary.
That one day, she would regret it and return to Huo Cheng’s side.
He absolutely could not accept that!
Just as Huo Shengbai was about to approach Wen Zhili, she turned to him and shook her head.
“Wait a moment!”
Huo Shengbai was stunned. Wait a moment?
But what happened next would leave an indelible mark on his memory forever.
