Chapter 6797
Lowering the Class
The men's eyes swept back and forth between Yun Yuyan and Wang Sha, their gazes filled with curiosity and mockery. Some even whistled and burst into laughter.
Ma Mengmeng stood quietly to the side without saying a word.
She crossed her arms and leaned back slightly, striking a haughty pose.
Her Prada suit swayed gently in the breeze, the cuffs billowing in the wind, revealing a diamond-encrusted bracelet on her wrist.
The bracelet was covered with diamonds, which shimmered coldly in the dim light, as if telling a story of its expensiveness and luxury.
She coldly surveyed her surroundings, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper, like two twisted braids.
A pungent odor permeated the alley, a mixture of the smell of barbecue smoke and the sour stench of garbage cans, making people involuntarily frown upon smelling it.
Several shirtless men sat by the roadside, holding beer bottles and loudly drinking and playing drinking games.
Their beer bellies gleamed under the lights, jiggling with their movements like two inflated balloons.
Bamboo skewers and tissues were piled up on the ground like a small mountain, scattered haphazardly. Several rats scurried around in the garbage, making squeaking noises that sent chills down one's spine.
Ma Mengmeng usually finds such places too dirty to even pass by. She always goes to high-end restaurants and shopping malls, where the environment is elegant and the service is attentive, a world apart from her current situation.
She just couldn't understand how Yun Yuyan could actually bring people to eat in a place like this.
She even began to suspect that Yun Yuyan was doing it on purpose, wanting to humiliate them in this place and let them taste the same humiliation.
Thinking of this, a flash of anger and resentment appeared in her eyes as she stared intently at Yun Yuyan, as if trying to see right through her.
Xiao Chen felt a piercing pain in his wrist. Yun Yuyan's icy fingers gripped his wrist tightly like iron clamps, her nails digging mercilessly into his flesh.
The force was astonishing; he used so much force that his knuckles turned bluish-white, as if they were about to be crushed in the next second.
He frowned slightly but didn't say anything, silently enduring the pain.
Across from them, Wang Sha's venomous shrill laughter echoed unrestrainedly in the air, like sharp thorns piercing straight into people's ears.
Yun Yuyan didn't even bother to glance at her; her gaze was cold and resolute, as if Wang Sha didn't exist at all.
She knew perfectly well that giving even a glance to these troublemakers was a waste; it would only embolden them and make them more arrogant and overbearing.
She took a deep breath of the expensive perfume scent that filled the mall; the fragrance, a blend of various luxurious aromas, only made her feel more agitated.
She suddenly grabbed Xiao Chen's arm and strode forward, saying, "Ignore them, let's go!"
"President Liu and the others must be getting impatient."
The force was astonishing, almost crushing Xiao Chen's bones.
Xiao Chen stumbled and almost lost his balance, but he still endured the pain and followed Yun Yuyan's steps forward.
"stop!"
Wang Sha wasn't about to let them off so easily. She stepped into their high heels and quickly blocked their way in two quick strides.
Her meticulously drawn eyebrows were arched high, but the curved shape of those eyebrows now looked as harsh as if a blade had scraped through glass, sending chills down one's spine.
"Oh, feeling guilty?"
"Did I hit a nerve?" A mocking smile played on her lips, her eyes filled with contempt and disdain. "Bringing such a poor boyfriend, you still dare to come to a place like this to pick out discounted items?"
"If I were you, I'd be too ashamed to even leave the house!"
"I'm afraid you can't even afford a decent cup of coffee?"
As she spoke, she pointed her bright red nail polished finger at Yun Yuyan with disdain, a gesture full of provocation.
Yun Yuyan's face instantly turned extremely ugly, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.
She bit her lip tightly, until it turned pale.
"Step aside."
Xiao Chen's brows furrowed suddenly, and his gaze turned cold and sharp, like two sharp knives piercing straight at Wang Sha.
His voice was deep and powerful, as if it contained ice shards, sending chills down one's spine.
Ma Mengmeng stood to the side, and seeing this scene, she was overjoyed.
She crossed her arms, leaned back slightly, and wore a gloating expression.
She curled her lip and chimed in sarcastically, "Exactly, Sister Sasha, what's the point of talking to someone who's just putting on a show? It lowers our standards..."
"They don't even know their own worth, yet they dare to act so arrogantly in front of us."
As she spoke, she kept rolling her eyes, looking incredibly annoying.
Xiao Chen stood quietly in place, his gaze indifferently sweeping over the pointless farce that Wang Sha had wantonly stirred up.
In his world, the verbal battles and back-and-forth struggles between women were always like dust floating in the air—insignificant and meaningless, not worth the slightest effort from him.
However, he has his own bottom line and principles.
If someone dares to cross the line, extend their malicious claws at those around them, and attempt to harm those they care about, then that's a different story.
In his view, protecting those around him is his inescapable responsibility, and anyone who crosses this line must pay the price.
At that moment, his fingers, hanging at his sides, twitched extremely slightly. The movement was so subtle that it was almost imperceptible, as if it were just a small, unintentional action, yet it seemed to contain some mysterious power, quietly brewing something.
Wang Sha stood smugly to the side, her face beaming with the arrogant smile of a victor, her eyes filled with contempt and disdain for Yun Yuyan.
She thought to herself that she must humiliate Yun Yuyan properly and make her unable to hold her head up in front of everyone.
So, she deliberately raised her shoulder and rammed into Yun Yuyan hard, as if she wanted to knock Yun Yuyan over.
At this critical moment, an extremely faint yet clearly directional invisible current, like a breeze precisely guided by a highly skilled magician, quietly brushed past the mirror-like marble floor.
This current of air, though seemingly weak and powerless, was actually very precise, like an invisible hand, striking directly at the ankle that supported Wang Sha's body weight!
"oops!"
The smugness on Wang Sha's face was instantly shattered by terror; her eyes widened in disbelief and panic.
A sharp pain shot through his ankle, and then his body, like a kite with a broken string, went completely out of control, and he fell backward violently. (End of Chapter)
