Chapter 226: Chapter 225: Succeeding is not enough, ruining things is more than enough_1

Though An Qianqian had absolved herself, her words left Old Master Qi and Elder Ling filled with disdain.

Having been around the block once or twice, they could see right through the cunning schemes and plotting of the young girl standing before them.

But she was merely an insignificant being.

Not even worthy of exposing her cheap tricks, however they didn’t want such a person to remain a nuisance.

Elder Ling scoffed coldly towards Xie Moyu and An Qianqian, "This pretentious concern of yours is unwanted. If you don’t want me to speak any harsher, I suggest you better skedaddle!"

With Elder Ling saying so, Xie Moyu felt the sting of humiliation and left, tail between his legs.

Xie Moyu had left, but An Qianqian did not.

She glanced at Yan Ling and said mysteriously: "Miss Yan was clearly here before us and saw Elder Ling early on. Why didn’t she show up earlier instead of appearing precisely when Moyu was being insulted?"

Yan Ling: ...

What do they mean when they say trouble falls from the sky?

This was it.

She had indeed arrived early, and she had intentionally waited until Xie Moyu had provoked Elder Ling before making her presence known.

But the reason she hadn’t spoken up was to avoid unnecessary antagonism.

Little did she expect her attempt at keeping a low profile would be seen as a mistake.

Yan Ling had initially admired An Qianqian, who, although having risen to success thanks to the Hao Lian Family, had carried on her charity work over the years.

For the sake of those children in the impoverished mountain villages being supported, she had no intentions of holding An Qianqian accountable for the malicious deeds perpetuated by Hao Lian Yong and An Qiuyue.

But now she realized how naive she had been!

An Qianqian, thriving in the chaotic world of entertainment.

Could she actually be as innocent and good-hearted as she appeared?

Yan Ling sneered: "Miss An, seems like you’ve learned your aunt’s knack for distorting the truth. Aside from the fact that my legs are my own and I decide when to make my appearance, you and Xie Moyu had deliberately tried to cozy up to Elder Ling under the pretense of treating his leg, but ended up annoying him instead. Are you suggesting I forced you to do that?"

As she prepared to return the sarcasm, Yan Ling would not give An Qianqian any chance to rebut.

She continued, "The entertainment industry always talks about Miss An, pure as a lotus amid the mud, not conforming despite the filthy surroundings. But it appears this isn’t the case, is it?"

"You’ve been saying all along that you don’t want to rely on the Hao Lian Family, want to make a name by your own merits, but in reality, you’ve been capitalizing on the Hao Lian Family’s resources to rake in millions in the entertainment industry. The billions looted by Hao Lian Yong from the Hao Lian Family, I suppose a lot was splurged on you? Now that he’s in trouble, you’re scurrying around, pulling in favors. Are you genuinely worried for your uncle, or concerned about your own hidden secrets getting exposed?"

An Qianqian stood flummoxed.

She hadn’t expected Yan Ling, who seemed so gentle, to be so sharp-tongued.

An Qianqian was itching to cuss but refrained out of decorum, given the public setting. A single misstep and she would be in the headlines.

Her aunt and uncle, her backbone, were now universally despised.

Her position too was precarious, incapable of weathering another negative rumor.

Looking at the elderly gentlemen standing by, she gritted her teeth and said, "Even though I may not have the connections that Miss Yan does or her eloquence, I have acted with nothing but full conscience towards my grandmother and the Hao Lian Family. Isn’t Dr. Yan going too far by making such baseless accusations and slandering me?"

Without giving Yan Ling an opportunity to respond, she put on a face of indignation and left.

Yan Ling:...

Such a lack of honor for a well-established actress!

Leaving in the middle of an argument!
