āTruth be told, Iām not sure whatās going on either.ā Murong Yumeng looked at Zhou Cuiāan, her expression troubled. āBut Shaohua has made it clear that he canāt assist you anymore. Youāre on your own now.ā
These words struck Zhou Cuiāan like a thunderbolt, plunging her into deep despair. She hadnāt expected that after wholeheartedly relying on Huangfu Shaohua, this would be the outcome.
This matter was crucial to her future. Huangfu Shaohuaās dismissal of it had shattered her hopes.
āSenior Sister Murong, could you try calling Shaohua again?ā Zhou Cuiāanās face was filled with anxiety, but she hadnāt lost all reason. Clinging to Murong Yumengās sleeve, she pleaded, āI need to speak with Shaohua. I refuse to believe heās truly heartless.ā
āIn light of our acquaintance, Iāll offer you some advice.ā Murong Yumeng frowned. āSince Shaohua has washed his hands of this matter, he wonāt change his mind. If you still wish to remain with him, then stop pursuing this issue with him.ā
Upon hearing Murong Yumengās words, Zhou Cuiāan felt all vitality drain from her. Her spirit visibly waned.
Murong Yumeng harbored no sympathy for Zhou Cuiāan.
Though she orchestrated this behind the scenes, had Zhou Cuiāan not been jealous of Ye Lengāan, she wouldnāt have posted on the forum. As for subsequent events, she merely capitalized on the situation.
Thus, even if Zhou Cuiāan were sued by Ye Lengāan, Murong Yumeng wouldnāt feel an ounce of guilt or sympathy.
Without hesitation, Murong Yumeng withdrew her sleeve from Zhou Cuiāanās grasp, a look of disdain flickering in her eyes as she glanced at it as if it were contaminated.
Observing Murong Yumengās reaction, Zhou Cuiāanās face turned ashen. But suddenly, as if struck by a revelation, she looked up at Murong Yumeng, eyes brimming with hope. āSenior Sister, youāre my only hope now. I beg you, please help me this once! Help me resolve this matter! If I lose to Ye Lengāan, I wonāt have a future at school.ā
In the past, Murong Yumeng had always come to her aid whenever she faced difficulties. With no other options or allies left, she had no choice but to turn to Murong Yumeng. And she believed that Murong Yumeng, with her kind heart, would help her, just as she had before.
Murong Yumeng nearly laughed aloud at Zhou Cuiāanās expression. Without emotion, she stated, āZhou Cuiāan, I truly canāt help you this time. I suggest you find a lawyer soon.ā
She hadnāt expected Zhou Cuiāan to be so brazen. Each time Zhou Cuiāan found herself in trouble, she came to seek her help, always claiming it was the last time. But there was always a next time.
In the past, Murong Yumeng might have considered Zhou Cuiāanās usefulness and lent assistance if the situation wasnāt too complicated. But now, circumstances had changed. Even Huangfu Shaohua had warned her against involvement. Why should she wade into this mess now?
Moreover, she had no significant ties with Zhou Cuiāan, no reason to risk anything for her.
Zhou Cuiāan failed to perceive Murong Yumengās displeasure. Kneeling before her, she beseeched, āSenior Sister, youāre my only hope now. Shaohua wonāt help me anymore, and I have nowhere else to turn. If you help me this time, Iāll remember your kindness. Iāll do anything for you in the future, without complaint.ā
In her mind, Murong Yumeng was kind and compassionate. A few more entreaties, and sheād surely acquiesce.
Murong Yumeng regarded the kneeling figure coldly, her tone icy. āZhou Cuiāan, get up. Are you kneeling here to force me into helping you?ā
āIā¦Iām not.ā Zhou Cuiāan raised her head, shaking it vigorously. āI didnāt mean it that way. Iām just desperate. You know me, Iām not like that.ā
āI canāt say for sure what kind of person you are.ā Murong Yumeng shook her head, sneering. āBut even if you kneel here till you drop dead, I wonāt help you.ā
Previously, Murong Yumeng might have considered Zhou Cuiāan useful, attending the meeting out of respect for Huangfu Shaohua. But now, Zhou Cuiāan was of no use to her, having been forsaken by Huangfu Shaohua. There was no need for pretense.
Hearing such callous words, Zhou Cuiāan couldnāt believe her ears. She stared blankly, eyes filled with disbelief. āHow can you say such things? Youā¦ā
āWhat? Am I just a pawn in your eyes?ā Murong Yumengās lips curled in disdain. āZhou Cuiāan, Iāve helped you many times! But you canāt just keep coming back to me! Every time you seek my help, you claim itās the last time. Iām tired of it.ā
Gazing at the drastically changed Murong Yumeng, Zhou Cuiāanās face reflected incredulity. āSenior Sister, how did you become like this? You werenāt like this before. Youāve always been kind!ā
Sheād always seen Murong Yumeng as gentle and compassionate, despite her affluent background. But now, though still beautiful, Murong Yumengās face lacked its former warmth, replaced by cold indifference and mockery.
Before Murong Yumeng, she felt suddenly small and insignificant. She couldnāt believe what she was seeing and hearing, nor that a person could change so drastically.
