Chapter 444

444 Fake Rich Lady

Li Zhen was straightforward and had a strong sense of justice to begin with. Now that his good friend looked like he had suffered a huge blow, he couldn’t help but say angrily, “Yu Yan, you’re too much! Qian Hao lent you almost all the money he had on him. In the end, he didn’t even have the money to treat his illness. What did you say at that time? You asked him to borrow money from the village committee! If you didn’t have the money, I wouldn’t have said anything, but you clearly do. Even two to three yuan for emergency treatment would have been fine, but you clearly don’t care at all!”

When the other creditors saw this scene, they felt that they had been deceived and their expressions darkened.

Xu Ling flipped through the stamps in her hand and continued to add insult to injury with a smile. “Yu Yan, if these are food stamps, I can understand that you’re keeping these in order to fill your stomach, but these clothing stamps and cotton stamps… As far as I know, you have two winter clothes that haven’t been patched. One of them is a new cotton shirt that your mother specifically sent over at the beginning of the year. There are also two slightly older ones. The cotton blanket you have is the softest and newest one I’ve ever seen!”

“These stamps can’t be used to buy food, but you can’t even bear to sell them to pay off your debts. I suspect that you don’t really plan to pay back the money. Don’t tell me you want to keep them until winter to make yourself a new cotton shirt? Now, the people who lent you money can barely afford to buy food. You’re too outrageous!”

!!

Xu Ling looked indignant, as if she was a defender of justice.

Yu Yan didn’t lack clothes, but she couldn’t tell them that her powerful and rich parents were not her biological parents and that she had to help her real family.

No! The people in the dormitory building who usually curried favor with her would definitely laugh at her for pretending to be a rich girl!

They wouldn’t see how filial she was to her biological parents. They would only mock her and ostracize her if they couldn’t get any more benefits from her.

Moreover, Yu Yan couldn’t tolerate her image of being from a well-off family being ruined, so she could only remain silent.

Seeing this, everyone thought that Yu Yan had acquiesced to Xu Ling’s words, so everyone started discussing.

At this point, mirth flashed across Yu Bing’s eyes, but she quickly regained her calm expression. “Qian Hao, Wen Xun, discuss a plan with Yu Yan. It’s inappropriate to keep causing trouble and it won’t be good for our image if the villagers see this. Since everyone is here today, we might as well lay everything on the table.”

The intellectuals in the building had all gathered to watch the commotion, so Yu Bing’s actions were no different from public execution to Yu Yan.

Yu Yan knew that she was at a disadvantage now, so it was useless for her to say anything. However, she still wanted to protect her last bit of dignity. “This is our private matter, so please leave. We want to discuss it in private.”

The three girls surrounding Yu Yan were already brooding over the fact that they couldn’t get any benefits from Yu Yan. Yesterday, Yu Yan had fought with Xu Ling, so they had to stand up for their friend!

After the three of them exchanged looks, the girl with short student hair interrupted, “That won’t do. Previously, they were deceived by you so many times. Who knows if you’re telling the truth or not? They can’t outwit you when it comes to scheming. We have to help them check. Don’t you guys think so?”

Sometimes, intellectuals liked drama as much as the nosy women in the village.

After all, the villagers either worked in the fields or slept every day. Their days were really boring, so no one wanted to miss a single commotion. Moreover, this time, they were on the side of justice. Everyone became enthusiastic and immediately replied loudly.

“Yes, if you have anything to say, just say it. Who knows what tricks you’re up to?”

“That’s right. They all returned empty-handed previously, so it’s obvious that they’re all honest people. Yu Yan, stop trying to play tricks in order to delay time. Hurry up. We still have to work later.”

“Everyone here will be the judge. Don’t just think about yourself. To you, that money is a small amount, but to others, it’s their entire living expenses. You have to pay back the money! Come up with a repayment plan!”

Yu Yan was so angry that she was about to cry. She had never felt so embarrassed since she was young!

Even when she was taken away by the police last time, she was taken away directly. She had never experienced being trapped in a room where everyone was looking at her with a condemning gaze.
