On the way to the hospital

Although Charlene was the perpetrator, out of humanitarian considerations, she was placed on a stretcher, her body still convulsing.

Her face had been simply bandaged with gauze.

But the pungent smell of disinfectant and the pain from her wounds made it impossible for her to calm down.

She knew that even if she went to the hospital, her face would hardly recover to its original state, and she would live with this ugly scar forever.

The Xia family members standing to the side at this moment showed more disdain than worry in their eyes.

The parents' once kind faces became distorted and unfamiliar.

The love and care of the past were gone from his eyes; instead, there was deep disgust and alienation.

The group began to discuss, and the content was exactly what Charlene had expected.

The eldest son of the Xia family, his face full of anger and disgust, glanced sideways at his parents and growled in a low voice:

“Look what she’s done! She’s ruined our whole family! I can’t even hold my head up in front of my friends anymore! And she still dares to do something so crazy.”

Charlene's mother's eyes were filled with tears.

Whether she was frightened by what had just happened or felt sorry for her daughter, she could only complain helplessly.

"I never knew she would turn out like this. She's usually quite obedient and well-behaved. How could she do something like this?"

The second sister of the Xia family, however, was relentless and continued to accuse:

“Well-behaved? If she were well-behaved and obedient, would she have done something like this? Now our family has become the laughing stock of the whole city. I just got back to the capital, and I’m not even sure if I can continue working. If you had kept an eye on her earlier, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.”

Charlene's father sat to the side, sighing silently without saying a word.

His face was etched with exhaustion and helplessness, as if he had aged more than ten years overnight.

He knew his son and daughter were right, but what could he do?

Their daughter has already made a grave mistake. Now, all they can do is try to distance themselves from her to avoid getting burned.

Shortly after the ambulance left, the Su family home became unusually lively.

Luxury cars drove into the Su family villa one after another, all because they had heard about the incident and rushed over to check on the situation.

Although they knew of Su Mengyan's skills, they still couldn't rest easy until they saw it with their own eyes.

No one expected that Charlene would dare to commit such a brazen act of violence in public.

After learning the whole story, Mu Xingran and Tang Tang were both furious.

The two were also among the first to arrive at the Su family home and stayed by Su Mengyan's side the whole time.

Du Wenxuan contacted Li Jinchen and the others to discuss how to make Xia Lin pay the greatest price.

Even Jia Hao was now panicked, his understanding of Xia Lin was completely changed, and he felt that he had been deceived before.

To do something so crazy, it's clear that it's a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Fortunately, he severed ties with her and wasn't blinded by so-called love.

the next day;

As the incident unfolded, the media began to come knocking.

When reporters, carrying cameras and microphones, blocked the door of Xia's house, Xia Lin's parents were so frightened that they quickly closed the door and dared not come out to face them.

The reporters kept knocking on the door and shouting, "Uncle and Auntie, we just want to know the situation, we won't make things difficult for you."

But there was no response from inside the door, only a deathly silence.

After a while, Charlene's father cautiously peeked out through the crack in the door and discovered that the reporters had not left yet.

He frowned, turned to the three people sitting on the sofa, and said:

"Don't open the door. Don't say anything they ask. This has nothing to do with us, and we don't want to get involved."

Xia's mother nodded, her eyes filled with worry and fear.

She knew that once she accepted media interviews, her family would become the focus of public attention, and that would only bring more trouble.

So they chose silence and escape, as if they could get rid of this disaster as long as they didn't acknowledge their relationship with Charlene.

the other side;

Charlene lay on the hospital bed, completely wrapped up.

Yesterday, after being taken to the hospital and settled into a ward, the Xia family members all left the place without prior arrangement.

That night, every inch of skin corroded by sulfuric acid felt like it was being scorched by fire.

The excruciating pain spread from my face to my whole body, but the hospital was quiet, and I was also filled with the fear of being abandoned by my family.

She didn't even have the courage to scream.

Just as she was lost in thought, there was a knock on the ward door, and the nurse who was changing her dressing came in.

Everything that happened yesterday was because of the anger of the Su family and Li Jinchen.

The news has spread throughout the capital, appearing on major news websites, all showing CCTV footage of Xia Lin's face as she committed the crime.

Therefore, the doctors and nurses all felt disgusted by this inhuman perpetrator.

Even though he had suffered the consequences of his actions and was covered in wounds, he did not evoke the slightest sympathy from them.

"Change the dressing!"

The cold voice fell, before Charlene could even respond.

I could feel it when the nurse removed the gauze that was tightly stuck to the wound.

It felt like peeling off a freshly scabbed wound, causing blood and pus to gush out instantly, making her tremble with pain and her entire hospital bed soaked in cold sweat.

Disinfection and wound cleaning—every action felt like rubbing salt into her wounds, causing her unbearable pain.

The nurse maintained a professional technique, but her eyes betrayed her disdain.

She finished her treatment quickly, unwilling to say another word to her, as if staying even a second longer would infect her with her "bad luck".

Charlene was not unaware of all this, but so what?

This feeling of isolation and rejection caused her psychological defenses to completely collapse.

He stared blankly at the ceiling all day, his eyes filled with confusion and helplessness, not understanding why things had turned out this way.

When she went to find Su Mengyan again, she had already imagined countless times in her mind the scene of Su Mengyan kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, in unbearable pain.

But why is the ending so unfair?

Why am I the one who got injured? And that Su Mengyan, how come she has so much strength and is so violent? Is she even a woman anymore?

He thought to himself that Su Mengyan was a tigress and that no one would want her in the future!

When-when-when-

The knock on the door sounded again.

The person who came in this time was the very person Charlene had just complained about.

"Looks like you're recovering well; you should be able to attend the court hearing on time!"

Ignoring the raging anger in her eyes, Su Mengyan delivered a devastating blow.

Charlene glared at the newcomer, completely oblivious to the fact that she had done something wrong.

But when she saw the people who came in behind Su Mengyan, she couldn't help but tremble a little in fear.

What she found most unacceptable was that Du Wenxuan's gaze was like an invisible sword, carrying immense force, piercing straight into her heart, instantly making her feel a bone-chilling cold.

Finally, under these undeniable gazes, Charlene came to terms with reality.

She finally admitted that she had lost miserably.

Perhaps, from beginning to end, it was all her own arrogance that led her to believe she could be compared to her.

Ironically, it was all just her imagination.
