Chapter 124: Pig 124 is not afraid of scalding hot water

Jhiang Yuan’s tone was truly playful; it was about something that didn’t exist at all, which really infuriated the woman.

However, Sun Yian remained calm and was the first to speak up.

"Sister Liu, stop talking. She’s making a scene over nothing. Since there’s nothing between us, naturally there’s no need to explain."

"Exactly, why explain anything to her? Who does she think she is!"

The woman seemed to have found her backbone and suddenly became arrogant.

"What an upstanding attitude, you are the floor leader, with no personal affairs, we all get it. Keep up the good work, go for it!"

She even intentionally made a "thumbs-up" gesture, which really got to Sun Yian.

Why does it feel like this Jhiang Yuan is not her usual self today, blabbering on like a fool?

"Stop wasting time. How could you kill someone today? These are all family members of the victims.

I wanted to mediate, but it’s not possible anymore. You must give everyone an explanation today."

Sun Yian also disliked Jhiang Yuan and her group; they were lawless and particularly difficult to deal with.

"Explain what? If they hadn’t harbored ill intentions and robbed our stuff, would it have come to this?

Instead of reflecting on themselves, they come here and press us. Have they no shame?

Don’t think I don’t know what you’re all thinking, acting all high and mighty here."

With just a look from Sun Yian, Sister Liu next to him picked up on the cue and started wailing.

"Oh, you killed my husband, how am I supposed to live with orphaned children?

There’s no justice, oh heavens!"

Jhiang Yuan rolled her eyes, guessing that if this group took turns, it could probably freeze over for half a day.

"So what do you want to do?"

The woman hesitated for a moment, then started fake crying again.

"We have the elderly and children at home, and we’ve run out of food. My husband went out to find something to eat, and I never imagined that you would...

That’s cutting off the lifeline for my family!"

Christ, if someone said that they hadn’t colluded beforehand, she wouldn’t believe it for a second.

"Ah, so after laying it on thick, you just want supplies, right? Why the big fuss? Couldn’t you have just said so earlier?"

This time, it was the other party’s turn to be surprised.

Was it going to be this easy?

"You’re agreeing?"

The one called Sister Liu looked incredulous, forgetting to cry.

"Ah, no way, there’s a misunderstanding. I belong to the fierce and powerful, whatever enters my home has zero chance of leaving, no one can make that happen."

"Jhiang Yuan, what do you plan to do then?

Now that you have done something wrong, you must find a way to make amends."

She scoffed, this was shamelessness in the extreme, giving shamelessness a seat at the table, taking it to another level.

"Self-defense is wrong now?

Sun Yian, don’t be too outrageous, okay? I’ve always kept out of your way, do we really need to tear each other apart?"

As she spoke, her eyes were half-closed, also showing a stern demeanor.

"What are you talking about? There’s a life on your hands. If this were the past, you would be facing the death penalty.

Now, if they’re willing to forgive you, you should be grateful.

Don’t be obstinate, it’s not good for anyone."

Song Yi kept a straight face, but Ye Mianmian was getting anxious.

"Shut your foul mouth, you fake literate scum, stop preaching here.

Everybody knows how vile you are.

Not daring to stir up trouble on the twenty-first floor, you come here to bully us, is it because we refused to join you for unified distribution of supplies a couple days ago?

Let me tell you, we’re not easy to provoke either, even a cornered rabbit will bite."

Sun Yian didn’t expect that now the accusations would all be pointed towards him.

Seeing that Ye Mianmian was genuinely angry, Jhiang Yuan thought there was no need to be too polite to this bunch, what were they thinking?

"Sun Yian, you know that things are different now, so why should we accommodate you?"

"If that’s how you’re going to talk, then there’s nothing left to discuss. We’re all just trying to do what’s best for everyone."

"You have supplies, bring them out. They could save someone’s life."

"There’s only so many of us in this building, and during the heat, we lost a lot of the elderly."

"Plenty have starved to death in the rainy weather, and you know how many froze to death during the extreme cold a few days ago?"

"Only half of us in the building are still alive now."

"Jhiang Yuan, do you have any compassion at all?"

His accusation even carried a hint of tears and sobs.

The people nearby who heard this also looked at them with eyes full of hatred.

"Enough, stop stirring things up here. The food we have, we went through hell and back to get, risking our lives for it.

You want it just like that? You’ve got some nerve asking, speaking with a face bigger than your ass."

Sun Yian looked as if he hated that iron couldn’t turn into steel, truly infuriated by Jhiang Yuan.

"If that’s how it is, then I won’t get involved anymore. Settle your own accounts."

"What, can’t show off your bravado, so now you start agitating others?

Playing both sides, just as expected of you."

Jhiang Yuan aimed to expose his true colors. If they weren’t going to be considerate, then no one would have it easy.

"And you there, saying your men died and you’re here to get an explanation.

My explanation is simple, they deserved it.

In the future, if anyone else covets the things in my house, they’ll end up the same way."

As she spoke, she even brandished a dagger to make her point.

The threat couldn’t have been clearer.

Upon hearing this, Sister Liu wasn’t having any of it and pushed her way forward.

"Sisters, don’t be afraid of them. If they don’t give us the supplies today, nobody’s going to leave."

Although she said this, not a single person stepped forward.

Among the women, there certainly were those who were utterly heartbroken and harbored hatred toward them.

But when it came to interests and life and death, the choice couldn’t be more obvious.

When Sister Liu saw that no one was stirring, she too started to lose face.

"Let’s all go at them together; I refuse to believe we can’t beat them."

Silence, an eerie silence.

The lack of any response was truly awkward.

"Alright, drop your hypocritical act. Your man is dead, yet here you are, still kicking. Don’t tell me you’re grieving, because I’ll never believe it.

You’re also too cruel, inciting everyone to fight me to the death.

Who do you want to make life difficult for?

Your mind games are too deep—I advise you to just calm down. Even Sun, the ’great building leader’, has gotten quiet."

To put someone down like this was her style.

You..."

Sister Liu was left speechless by the retort, and seeing the dagger in Jhiang Yuan’s hand, she didn’t dare to approach.

She clutched her chest and pretended to collapse.

Immediately, someone was there to support her: "Sister Liu, Sister Liu, are you alright?"

Jhiang Yuan could tell it was all an act.

She kept quiet, as she was standing close by and only two steps away.

She lifted her foot and stamped down hard, then ground her heel in.

"Ah..."

Sister Liu suddenly sat up, her eyes filled with a desire to tear Jhiang Yuan limb from limb.

"Oh dear, you’re awake? That was quick, works faster than an elixir.

Next time remember to make it more believable, okay?"
