“Hush! Keep your voice down!”

Shen Yan, despite being furious and seething with anger, had to take a deep breath and suppress her emotions when she saw so many people around.

With just a few words, the matter was brushed aside, and she led the crowd out of the dining room.

Before leaving, she glanced back at Shen Wan, her eyes filled with a sinister and resentful expression as if it could overflow at any moment.

Shen Wan smiled lightly in response.

Sparks flew.

As soon as everyone left, Qi Ziehen helped her sit down. “Did you hit your head hard? Are you okay?”

Shen Wan shook her head, indicating she was fine.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t expect Shen Yan to…,” Qi Ziehen began.

“It’s okay,” Shen Wan interrupted, avoiding his hand, her eyes indifferent, her tone calm.

Qi Ziehen lowered his gaze, his brows furrowing deeply. “Has she always been like this towards you?”

The woman lightly chuckled. “Threatening to strangle me? That’s a first.”

He was about to apologize again, but Shen Wan spoke first.

“I’m fine. You can go back to the living room now. Thank you for standing in front of me.”

“…You’re welcome.” It was my fault in the first place.

Originally, there was a meaning behind him and Shen Yan getting along, but now it seemed unnecessary. What was the difference between a woman who constantly used vulgar language and those aunties in the wet market?

“Then, sit for a while. I’ll leave first.” The young man left with a contemplative expression, and at this moment, if he could turn back and take one more look at Shen Wan, even just one look, he would have seen the victorious smile in her eyes.

After Qi Ziehen left, Shen Wan immediately straightened her posture. When she had collided with Shen Yan earlier, she had deliberately controlled her strength, so despite the loud noise, there was no harm done.

She stood up, bypassed the shattered glass shards, and took out a new glass. She filled it with warm water and held it in her hand.

Soon, the noisy music in the living room ceased, and the sounds of the servants escorting the guests away could be heard in the distance.

In less than a minute, the entire old mansion had returned to its usual quiet state.

Shen Yan personally saw her classmates off and then turned back to the house. Her smile completely collapsed from her face, replaced by a sharp and menacing gaze.

It seemed like she wanted to settle the score behind closed doors.

Shen Wan took a sip of water, not attempting to escape or hide, a smile in her eyes.

“Bitch! What did you do to Brother Qi just now?!” At this moment, her true ferocity was revealed. It was nothing compared to what Qi Ziehen saw.

“You were watching everything clearly from outside, weren’t you? Why the need for this?”

“Do you admit to seducing Brother Qi?!”

Shen Wan’s eyes shimmered with curiosity. “Why don’t you think he was the one who was trying to seduce me?”

“Dream on! Brother Qi could never be interested in you! It must be you seducing him!”

“As you say, if he could be seduced by me, then he can hardly be considered a gentleman, can he?”

“You!” Shen Yan was so angry her cheeks turned red. She raised her hand as if to slap Shen Wan.

Shen Wan suddenly stood up, blocking her, and approached menacingly.

“What, do you want to slap me?”

“I’m the one slapping you!” She raised her hand, ready to strike again.

This time, Shen Wan didn’t give her the chance. There was a crisp sound –

The whole world fell into silence.

Shen Yan covered her face, slowly turned back, and her eyes showed disbelief. “You… you hit me?!” Her whole body trembled, and her lips quivered.

“Yes, I hit you. You can hit me, but I can’t fight back?”

“Ah!” Shen Yan screamed, like a blade scraping against glass, piercingly sharp. With red eyes, she rushed towards Shen Wan with all her might.

Shen Wan swiftly dodged, and Shen Yan crashed into the dining table, her body bent like a shrimp.

“Shen Wan, you… you’ll die a miserable death!”

“Don’t worry, if I die, I’ll make sure to drag you down with me before I close my eyes!” She said this with determination, filled with hatred.

Shen Yan shivered.

Shen Wan chuckled lightly, looking around. This place was so familiar, as were the surroundings.

In her previous life, in this dining room, she had almost been assaulted by Shen Yan’s friends that she had brought along. Fortunately, a servant rushed in and stopped it in time. But what did Shen Yan do?

In front of everyone, she stood up and become a “witness,” accusing Shen Wan shamelessly of seducing her friend. When the situation became unfavorable, she turned the tables, accusing Shen Wan of attempted rape.

At that time, Shen Wan had just been brought back to the Shen family. Shen Chunjiang was extremely indifferent to her, ignoring her completely, allowing Shen Yan to insult her in various ways. Even the servants could gossip and mock her without restraint.

So when Shen Yan presented that flawed “testimony,” the first reaction of everyone was not to question it but to directly convict her. They all accused her of being shameless and called her a “slut.”

At that moment, Shen Wan’s self-esteem was trampled into the mud..
