After a brief silence, everyone started criticizing again.
Xia Ruya bit on her lips and stood up from her seat. "Stop it. Perhaps it's just a misunderstanding—President Chu has yet to come forward."
Jiang Ruoyin hurriedly tugged at Xia Ruya. "Ruya, I know you have a kind heart and can't bear to see others criticizing her like this. However, don't forget how she treated you previously—not only did she push you to the ground, causing bruises all over you, even almost spraining your ankle, she'd also framed you for having a motive for getting close to her. Why do you have to speak up for someone like her who doesn't know better?"
Jiang Yuqian also persuaded her. "Ruya, you've got to be selective on the people you're kind to. For such a vicious person, she wouldn't thank you even if you helped her. You're better off saving it!"
